[00:11] <Guest59> In ubuntu Ubuntu 21.10, when moving files or folders using nautilus, the files or folders move successfully but after the move sometimes not all the files or folders are selected.
[00:11] <Guest59> Hi all, thanks for being here :)
[00:35] <trevor> mirc client for ubuntu
[00:35] <trevor> ?
[00:46] <wez> mirc :/
[00:47] <sarnold> hey I enjoyed mirc back in the day
[00:48] <wez> Yeah I used it back in the day alongside ICQ
[00:48] <sarnold> UHOH
[00:49] <wez> I wouldn't use either now
[00:49] <JoeBk> is ICQ still a thing?
[00:50] <wez> I think it's called AOL messenger
[00:51] <wez> but yeah, you can still use it :)
[00:51] <wez> I wonder if my old account still works
[00:51] <wez> "Originally developed by the Israeli company Mirabilis in 1996, the client was bought by AOL in 1998, and then by Mail.Ru Group in 2010."
[00:51] <JoeBk> I won't be using AOL messenger any time soon.
[00:51] <wez> JoeBk: It was bought by another company after AOL
[00:52] <JoeBk> I kinda remember it being russian.
[00:52] <wez> It looks RUssiamn :)
[00:53] <LoUDcLoUD> hello guys
[00:53] <LoUDcLoUD> i need help
[00:54] <wez> Hi LoUDcLoUD!  What up?
[00:54] <Maik> !ask | LoUDcLoUD
[00:54] <LoUDcLoUD> since updating to impish, ubuntu can't detect bluetooth microphone out of my earphone set
[00:55] <wez> oh noes, what errors are you seeing in the logs LoUDcLoUD ?
[00:55] <LoUDcLoUD> how can i see the log?
[00:55] <LoUDcLoUD> it detects the earphones but not the mic
[00:56] <JoeBk> LoUDcLoUD, did  you go into settings/sound and set the microphone to headset?
[00:56] <wez> LoUDcLoUD: /var/syslog, the dmesg command, there is probably a system log views in Ubuntu somewhere.  The sound settings may also give you clues
[00:56] <JoeBk> LoUDcLoUD, you are running an old non-LTS version.
[00:56] <wez> /var/log/syslog*
[00:57] <LoUDcLoUD> JoeBk, how can i update?
[00:58] <JoeBk> LoUDcLoUD, I believe to need to reinstall.  we went over this yesterday. 21.10 is no longer supported.
[00:58] <JoeBk> LoUDcLoUD, you need to select the latest LTS version.
[00:59] <LoUDcLoUD> ohhh
[00:59] <LoUDcLoUD> so impish is outdated
[00:59] <LoUDcLoUD> ?
[00:59] <wez> JoeBk: Really? I thought it was good until April.
[00:59] <JoeBk> go to releases.ubuntu.com and read the first paragraph
[01:00] <JoeBk> is says 9 months
[01:00] <JoeBk> LoUDcLoUD, when was the last time you were able to update?
[01:00] <LoUDcLoUD> jan 20
[01:00] <wez> JoeBk: October to April is 6 months
[01:00] <LoUDcLoUD> oh ok
[01:01] <LoUDcLoUD> i don't know why i have an interim version tbh
[01:01] <JoeBk> wez I may be thinking of someone else.
[01:01] <sarnold> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases  21.10 is good until july 2022
[01:01] <wez> sarnold: That's what I though.
[01:01] <wez> though*
[01:01] <JoeBk> LoUDcLoUD, were'nt on here last night alking about updating.
[01:01] <wez> thought***
[01:01] <LoUDcLoUD> yes si updated it yeterday
[01:01] <LoUDcLoUD> from hisrute
[01:02] <JoeBk> oh ok
[01:02] <LoUDcLoUD> but the update broke my bluettoth headset
[01:02] <LoUDcLoUD> because it worked before
[01:03] <LoUDcLoUD> the update
[01:03] <JoeBk> you did not pick an LTS version like you were told to and that it going to be a problem.
[01:03] <LoUDcLoUD> so i need to install lts
[01:04] <JoeBk> now I remember you were running 21.04.
[01:04] <LoUDcLoUD> yes hisrute
[01:04] <JoeBk> you need to install 20.04.4.
[01:04] <LoUDcLoUD> od i need to mount that on an usb and stuff?
[01:05] <JoeBk> LTS releases are supported for 5 years.
[01:05] <LoUDcLoUD> well i'll install it and come back to you guys
[01:06] <LoUDcLoUD> thx for support
[01:06] <JoeBk> anyone else have any ideas?
[01:08] <JoeBk> LoUDcLoUD, you need to copy the iso to a flash if that's what you're asking.
[01:09] <sarnold> bluetooth headphones are *weird* things; there's something like a dozen codecs, and some of them are supported, some of them aren't, and sometimes you've got to install an extra package and things just work
[01:09] <sarnold> and sometimes it just plain doesn't exist
[01:09] <sarnold> I understand that the next release will switch from pulseaudio to pipewire, or maybe it'll just be available to switch to, or something like that, and I think the pipewire folks have the higher-end codecs implemented
[01:11] <JoeBk> is telling him to install 20.04.4 the right advise?
[01:11] <JoeBk> I don't like those interim versions.
[01:12] <sarnold> I dunno. lts releases generally do have better support all around, but it's also unsatisfying to 'roll back', you know?
[01:13] <sarnold> there's a chance that the right person with the right info would know exactly what to do to make his existing system just work, but I'm not that person :( I barely understand the pieces..
[01:14] <JoeBk> support is going to expire in another month and he will be stuck with an outdated version anyway.
[01:17] <sarnold> and jammy is probably a bit too fresh still; a lot of folks are running it fine, but running an unreleased version is probably more excitement than he wants
[01:19] <JoeBk> I sometimes install those interim releases on an external drive just to try them out.
[01:43] <pycurious> I've a machine on which "/" is 15GB and "/datadrive" is 2TB. I would like to move some of the linux directories from / to /datadrive (for example /usr) - is that a bad idea? How else can I handle these two drives so that I can get more space in "/"?
[01:52] <squarecircle> Hi. Is there a way to convince my system that the two screens attached to my DP are one?
[01:52] <squarecircle> I'd like to use four screens, but my graphics adapter only supports three :(
[01:59] <trevor> say the mirc in ubuntu
[02:03] <jhutchins> squarecircle: It's kindof up to your chipset and your driver.  That is a possible layout for a dual-monitor setup.
[02:04] <jhutchins> squarecircle: There should be a display module in the settings menu.
[02:06] <squarecircle> Sure - I can choose three out of the four screens. That far everything is working fine. Now I use an DP adapter: https://www.lenovo.com/us/en/p/accessories-and-software/cables-and-adapters/adapters/0b47092
[02:07] <squarecircle> jhutchins: If I read it correctly, two identical screens can be handled as one extended through some DP magic. So it seems for Windows.
[02:11] <squarecircle> I think its this MST stuff. lspci tells me, that I'm using "Intel Corporation Skylake GT2 [HD Graphics 520] (rev 07)"
[02:25] <sarnold> squarecircle: xrandr can do mirroring or whatever; depending upon your desktop environment there may be a much friendlier graphical interface
[02:31] <squarecircle> sarnold: well yes, my Settings/Displays menu allows me to expand on three screens - not on four. that far am I. thing is -I want to use all 4 and the two connected to the DP double adapter as one ultrawide
[02:32] <sarnold> squarecircle: ah! that sounds like xrandr territory then :)
[02:37] <squarecircle> sarnold: well, I'll care later about this problem
[02:37] <squarecircle> thanks for the help anyway
[02:37] <sarnold> squarecircle: hold on..
[02:38] <sarnold> squarecircle: xrandr is kind of a pain to figure out.. here's the two scripts I use for my own laptop, though I've got *very* different goals than you do :) hopefully these are helpful https://termbin.com/66bz
[02:40] <squarecircle> sarnold: hmm
[02:44] <squarecircle> sarnold: thanks
[02:44] <squarecircle> sarnold: I'll give it a bit brain grease later
[02:44] <squarecircle> :)
[02:46] <sarnold> squarecircle: good luck :) I hope it doesn't give you too much trouble ;)
[02:47] <squarecircle> sarnold: worst case would be that I need to search my DisplayLink graphic cards again
[02:47] <sarnold> squarecircle: heh, yeah, "uhoh this is crazy, reboot" :)
[03:09] <pycurious> I've a machine on which "/" is 15GB and "/datadrive" is 2TB. I would like to move some of the linux directories from / to /datadrive (for example /usr) - is that a bad idea? How else can I handle these two drives so that I can get more space in "/"?
[03:10] <leftyfb> pycurious: why do you have the OS on a 15G drive?
[03:13] <pycurious> leftyfb: The VM that was given to us by a cloud provider gave us that!
[03:13] <sarnold> would it be easier to just grow the thing they gave you?
[03:14] <pycurious> I can go back to them and ask for an increase, but that will take time and effort - and some management approvals… :(
[03:14] <leftyfb> it's a VM, spin up a new one and move everything over
[03:19] <pycurious> leftyfb: is there a way to move some of the directories in "/" mount to "/datadrive" mount? That would solve the problem without respinning the vm
[03:20] <leftyfb> pycurious: yes, though I really feel it's in your best interest to spend the time to build it correctly
[03:28] <esv> pycurious, what directories do you want to move?
[03:29] <pycurious> esv: /usr for starters
[03:29] <esv> leftyfb, you'd be surprised we have customers with OS disks in the TB range
[03:29] <esv> nah, not a good idea
[03:30] <sarnold> pycurious: if you move directories across filesystems you'll get to all sorts of weird problems
[03:30] <sarnold> pycurious: it'd be way easier to just grow the disk and resize the fs, or spin up a new vm with bigger disk, etc
[03:32] <pycurious> sarnold: thanks. Will try to ask for permission tomorrow
[03:33] <esv> directories such as /usr/bin /usr/sbin ...etc. are precious to the boot process, so don't touch it unless you really want to get in trouble. also, here we tend to assume the OS is contained within a single OS disk, so the vast majority of support engineers and process documentation assumes that too.
[03:34] <esv> honestly I am not sure what would happen...
[03:34]  * esv has a test for business hours tomorrow 
[03:35] <esv> make a snapshot of the OS before you attempt anything
[03:35] <sarnold> esv: hopefully a test of a system that doesn't matter :)
[03:36] <esv> unless you have test & production on the same server :)
[06:03] <Thete> anyone know a good way of getting gnome42 runnin on 21.10?
[06:03] <Thete> PPA perhaps?
[06:04] <luna> Thete, its still in Beta fyi
[06:04] <Thete> I know
[06:05] <Thete> it's nice though
[06:05] <Thete> they fixed some stuff that was buggin me
[06:05] <Thete> it's ok, was just curious if anyone knew of a ppa offhand
[06:06] <Thete> I did find a 41 though.. I'll just use that for now
[06:24] <karthyklol> hi
[06:25] <karthyklol> i had an unclean shutdown due to power failure now when i boot it gives kernel panic library not found
[06:25] <alkisg> Can you boot it to the previous kernel or to recovery console?
[06:25] <karthyklol> nope
[06:26] <karthyklol> i am running ubuntu server
[06:26] <karthyklol> if thats relavent
[06:26] <alkisg> Boot it with a live cd then, and fsck and chroot to target and upgrade
[06:27] <alkisg> Also, a screenshot of which library fails might help in certain cases
[06:27] <karthyklol> it says linselinixse.so something
[06:27] <karthyklol> wait
[06:27] <karthyklol> i will give you exact error
[06:28] <dirtcastle>  when making a partition, in parted I gave +5 mib for the end to get a partition of size 5 mb. is there another way to do it.
[06:28] <dirtcastle> also how to backup a partition table.
[06:28] <dirtcastle> +5 mib didn't work
[06:30] <karthyklol> @alkhttps://photos.app.goo.gl/DHu8YaoPLT6psELB8
[06:31] <alkisg> One way to backup is: sfdisk --dump /dev/sda > sda.backup
[06:31] <karthyklol> @alksig https://photos.app.goo.gl/DHu8YaoPLT6psELB8
[06:33] <alkisg> karthyklol: it sounds like it was rebooted while updating; just boot it with a live cd, chroot to target and finish the update
[06:36] <karthyklol> i will try thanks @alkisg i will ask if i have further questions
[07:35] <dirtcastle> do I need to update /etc/fstab/ if I'm just making more partition on the disk that already has partitions?  u have update only when U add a new drive right?
[07:42] <alkisg> dirtcastle: if you create a new partition and you want it automatically mounted at boot, you need to add it to /etc/fstab
[07:44] <dirtcastle> ahh got it!! thanks
[07:59] <Guest7053> Has anyone changed the emMC clock rate in the Linux kernel?
[08:08] <Guest7053> May I ask you a question?
[08:08] <Guest7053> Has anyone changed the emMC clock rate in the Linux kernel?
[08:09] <alocer[m]> you should be patient and someone will answer your question.
[08:09] <alocer[m]> if you people are not answering, it means they don't know the answer.
[08:51] <weedmic> When I boot a machine, one of the items I see on the screen is Boot ID: bd5b50fe3fb6cced80e9bdff4075ca8a - does that mean I can turn the machine on remotely if it is off?
[08:54] <weedmic> soz, not when i boot, when i do hostnhamectl
[08:56] <alkisg> weedmic: the boot id is not related to wake on lan. You can use WoL to remotely start computers if you wish.
[08:58] <weedmic> ok, ty
[09:04] <dirtcastle> I'm trying to mount a partition. I got this error
[09:04] <dirtcastle> https://paste.rs/iY9.
[09:04] <dirtcastle> this is the partes print free output
[09:04] <dirtcastle> https://paste.rs/NdO
[09:04] <dirtcastle> parted*
[09:05] <alkisg> It sounds like a valid partition with an invalid file system on it :)
[09:05] <alkisg> If it had data, maybe you moved it around improperly?
[09:07] <gordonjcp> dirtcastle: there are duplicate superblocks, and if the filesystem has been mangled maybe you can probe for one of them
[09:07] <dirtcastle> it has no data .just created it
[09:07] <gordonjcp> dirtcastle: okay, is it formatted?
[09:07] <alkisg> Did you format it?
[09:08] <dirtcastle> i should run partprobe /dev/sda
[09:08] <alkisg> It's not enough to create a partition; you need to run mkfs to create a file system
[09:08] <dirtcastle> in parted I gave it ext4. I didn't do anything after that
[09:08] <gordonjcp> dirtcastle: yeah, it's not formatted
[09:08] <gordonjcp> dirtcastle: you've told it what you expect it to be
[09:09] <gordonjcp> dirtcastle: you haven't actually made it into that
[09:09] <dirtcastle> oho.
[09:09] <Guest7065> I tried using the "dd" command on my virtual machine to test the read and write speed, so that the speed can be displayed normally.
[09:09] <dirtcastle> lol. ok. got it
[09:09] <Guest7065> Is the file system not supported?
[09:09] <dirtcastle> thanks for your time!
[09:10] <Guest7065> But on my motherboard there is no display rate
[09:10] <gordonjcp> dirtcastle: fixed?
[09:11] <dirtcastle> nope . Im eating right now 😅🥲. i know the commands that I'll have to run. I'll run and be back.
[09:19] <KBar> Guest7065: just use /dev/null
[09:20] <Guest7065> dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null bs=4096 count=104
[09:20] <Guest7065> This is my order
[09:37] <Guest91> Uploaded file: https://uploads.kiwiirc.com/files/133f4af20fe0c6e47955740c683ad026/service.txt
[09:38] <Guest91> Is any of those services not running critical?
[09:46] <KBar> Guest91: depends on whether you use NetworkManager or something else. if you do, then NetworkManager.service is critical. whoopsie is also recommended for automatic crash report generation
[09:51] <Guest91> KBar all those Services seem so be not exsisting. How can i determine what Im using instead of NetworkManager
[11:32] <karthyklol> my ubuntu server went down due to power cut when it was updating no it says some library file is missing how do i fix this without loosing data
[11:33] <karthyklol> now*
[11:42] <wez> Their UPS must have failed.
[11:46] <karthyklol> hi if somebody answerd my question please repost since i had a power cut
[11:58] <oerheks> karthyklol, apt install -f # usually fixes things
[12:03] <karthyklol> oerheks i will give it a try and let you know
[12:11] <karthyklol> oerheks nope doesn't work it says no packages were touched
[12:16] <certiorari> anyone using irssi?
[12:16] <certiorari> how can I navigate to channel 20 and above?
[12:16] <certiorari> hi btw! :)
[12:16] <certiorari> o/
[12:17] <oerheks> karthyklol, pastebin the output of sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade please
[12:17] <JackFrost> certiorari: Depends, there's many ways to do it, but one is /win 20
[12:18] <JackFrost> certiorari: https://niklas.laxstrom.name/page/eng/irssi is another option.
[12:20] <certiorari> JackFrost: thx, saving the link :)
[12:20] <JackFrost> I guess if you need higher you can just use /win, or https://gist.github.com/xkr47/b6ef9a927567e5b3ef38dc8ad9d0db9e.  Also, since you're already in #ubuntu, /join #ubuntu will bring you back here.
[12:21] <acqsk> Hi, I destroyed keyring or something on lastes ubuntu with KDE, and now when I want to connect to VPN, always is asking me for username and password and there is not possible to save credentials
[12:22] <certiorari> thx JackFrost :)
[12:22] <acqsk> ...also Mailspring is displaying the following message
[12:22] <acqsk> Mailspring cound not store your password securely Make sure you have libsecret installed and a keyring is present...
[12:23] <JackFrost> cSure thing.
[12:26] <karthyklol> oerheks i am getting dns errors when i  run your command  first thing i did was look for resolv.conf it is not there. When i try to create one it doesnt let me.
[12:55] <certiorari> JackFrost: ok, I did try "/bind meta-p key win20" but it does not work. what could I be doing wrong?
[12:56] <JackFrost> There's most likely already a bind there, and I'd think that would be /bind meta-p change_window 20
[12:57] <certiorari> ok
[12:57] <certiorari> will try that, cheers
[12:58] <certiorari> works! you the man! :D
[12:58] <certiorari> thx JackFrost
[12:58] <certiorari> <3
[13:00] <JackFrost> Sure thing.

[15:39] <Guest74> Hi
[15:40] <[itchyjunk]> :( the snapd is still running and everything had slowed down.
[15:40] <jpmh> I have a 18.04 system which now has a kernel panic - it has been suggested that  I revert to a previous kernel.  I have booted from an ISO and all looks OK -- how to I set it to boot from a previous kernel?
[15:52] <yrdsb> hi
[15:52] <alkisg> jpmh: you select it from the grub menu > advanced options
[15:52] <yrdsb> will ubuntu 20.04 look like 18.04 look like ubuntu 18.04 if i put old icons and ambience
[15:57] <jpmh> alkisg: ty - but how do I set that menu to show up since I booted from an ISO
[16:14] <alkisg> jpmh: you reboot, remove the iso, and use the disk. If the menu doesn't show up, try to hold left shift or press esc while it boots
[16:14] <yrdsb> why is ubuntu now just slightly modifed gnome
[16:15] <yrdsb> which a slightly modifed version of adwaita called yaru
[16:15] <yrdsb> why is ubuntu mostly vanilla gnome
[16:15] <yrdsb> only  a few extnsions installed
[16:15] <yrdsb> and only have a slightly modifed version of adwaita theme
[16:16] <jhutchins> yrdsb: So you're free to customize it your own way.
[16:16] <oerheks> why themes?
[16:17] <yrdsb> rememeber unity
[16:17] <yrdsb> it was way better then the gnome version
[16:17] <oerheks> unity still exists, just not as default
[16:17] <yrdsb> it made ubuntu unique when ubuntu switch to gnome it no longer unique since you can install similer extensions on other distro to make it look like ubuntu
[16:17] <leftyfb> !chat | yrdsb
[16:19] <yrdsb> why is ubuntu 20.04
[16:19] <yrdsb> just vanilla gnome
[16:19] <yrdsb> but with icons and dock

[16:19] <yrdsb> *adwaita
[16:19] <leftyfb> yrdsb: do you have a support question?
[16:20] <yrdsb> yes when will ubuntu be unique again
[16:20] <yrdsb> since they switch to gnome which is vanilla gnome but with dock and icons
[16:20] <leftyfb> yrdsb: that's not a support question. Feel free to give feedback in #ubuntu-offtopic or submit a bug on launchpad.net
[16:20] <oerheks> !flavors
[16:20] <oerheks> ubuntu is more than gnome

[16:53] <Mat1010> Hi good day. How to create keyboard shortcuts, which open the browser and go to = https://web.libera.chat/, for example?
[16:56] <leftyfb> Mat1010: create a script
[16:57] <Mat1010> my question is if this process is available in ubuntu without having to code a script
[16:57] <ioria> Mat1010, yes; open Settings > Keyboad Shortcuts ; go down adn press '+'; name_of_the shortcut; Command  firefox web.libera.chat  : then press Set Shortcut and choose the keys (like Alt+H, but consider some keys are reserved)
[16:57] <Mat1010> how to make a script in ubuntu?
[16:58] <Mat1010> I understand ioria
[16:58] <ioria> ok
[16:59] <ioria> Mat1010, press 'Add' at the end
[17:00] <Mat1010> That's what I'm looking for.
[17:01] <leftyfb> ioria: I forgot you can just put comands into the "Command" entry. Had it in my head you had to point to an application or something
[17:02] <Mat1010> with a script?
[17:02] <Mat1010> zurdofb
[17:02] <ioria> leftyfb, yeah
[17:05] <ioria> Mat1010, with a script is the same; you write a script and put it's path in the Command entry
[17:14] <jimmyb> Hey all! I was wondering if someone could help me troubleshoot this issue I have with upgrading a package. I am not sure if this is an issue with the repo, or something else - but perhaps you guys could help determine that. Basically I am trying to upgrade the grafana-enterprise package but I am being told that it's already on the latest version -
[17:14] <jimmyb> https://ghostbin.linuxbox.ninja/paste/72p2m
[17:14] <Mat1010> In the file system, where can I see the lines of code that make the "Keyboard shortcuts" command work?
[17:15] <leftyfb> !latest | jimmyb
[17:15] <jimmyb> Hrmm, I don't think that's it.
[17:15] <leftyfb> jimmyb: you'll need to contact Grafana for support with their package and repo
[17:16] <enigma9o7[m]> Dont get it.
[17:16] <enigma9o7[m]> yeah thats weird apt policy result
[17:16] <jimmyb> Ah I figured I would probably get such a response, but at least that confirms it looks like an issue with their repo.
[17:16] <leftyfb> jimmyb: if I had to guess, you might have the repo added but it doesn't look like 8.4.3 is available for your distro/release
[17:16] <enigma9o7[m]> is it the same with just `apt policy` as opposed to `apt-cache policy`
[17:16] <enigma9o7[m]> It should be, just making sure, cuz that doesnt make sense, why is the candidate not the latest when its the only one offered
[17:16] <jimmyb> leftyfb: How could I tell if it's not available for my distro/release?
[17:16] <jimmyb> enigma9o7[m]: Let me check.
[17:17] <leftyfb> jimmyb: look through their repo or contact Grafana
[17:17] <lupi> hey guys. if I renew ip using dhclient. should I expect systemd-networkd's logs (journalctl) to update?
[17:17] <jimmyb> enigma9o7[m]: Yeah, same result when using `apt policy grafana-enterprise`.
[17:17] <leftyfb> lupi: why are you calling dhclient directly?
[17:18] <jimmyb> leftyfb: I did try looking through their repo, or tried finding the URL to look through their repo, but couldn't seem to figure it out.
[17:18] <lupi> cause it always get the same ip address from the dhcp server.
[17:18] <leftyfb> lupi: what is your end goal?
[17:19] <Apachez> end game
[17:19] <jimmyb> enigma9o7[m]: Sorry, I truncated some of the output from `apt cache`. It wasn't the only one offered.
[17:19] <lupi> leftyfb: so there are two vms. diff macs. both host-only net. but gets the same ip. the goal is to have different ips from dhcp
[17:19] <enigma9o7[m]> ah ok, let's see the full output
[17:19] <leftyfb> lupi: if you want to change which ip your client gets, you can try deleting /var/lib/dhcp/dhclient.* on the client and deleting the dhcp lease on the server
[17:19] <enigma9o7[m]> there is probably priority numbers that are relevant
[17:19] <leftyfb> lupi: you'll then want to reboot the client
[17:20] <jimmyb> enigma9o7[m]: Here's the full output -- https://ghostbin.linuxbox.ninja/paste/bcb6y
[17:20] <lupi> leftyfb: did that. so what i did was. dhclient -r. delete lease file. dhclient -v
[17:20] <leftyfb> lupi: did you delete the lease on the dhcp server?
[17:21] <leftyfb> lupi: I would delete the lease files on both clients, delete the leases for both clients on the server and then reboot both clients
[17:21] <lupi> leftyfb: this is virtualbox btw. it has its "internal" dhcp server for host only networks.
[17:21] <lupi> leftyfb: the other client/vm is turned off
[17:21] <jimmyb> enigma9o7[m]: And here is /var/lib/dpkg/status if that helps -- https://ghostbin.linuxbox.ninja/paste/z4xax
[17:21] <leftyfb> lupi: this is an issue with Virtualbox then, not the client
[17:22] <enigma9o7[m]> Not priority numbers, hmmm.  I'd just specify the latest version in your install command to see if that works.
[17:22] <lupi> ok thanks leftyfb
[17:23] <jimmyb> enigma9o7[m]: Ah yeah that totally worked 😝 `apt install grafana-enterprise=8.4.3`. Weird...
[17:23] <enigma9o7[m]> apt install grafana-enterprise=8.4.3
[17:23] <enigma9o7[m]> ya exactly.
[17:24] <enigma9o7[m]> maybe you have some /etc/apt/preference or something to tell it not to update?
[17:24] <leftyfb> I'm willing to bet a full-upgrade or just calling "apt install grafana-enterprise" would have worked. It was probably held back from updates by the vendor for whatever reason
[17:28] <jimmyb> leftyfb: As shown in my pastes I did try running `apt install grafana-enterprise`.
[18:05] <o97115> Hi! In Ubuntu 21.10 (Wayland) 3 fingers swipes are pre-bound to open Activities and change virtual desktops, I think. Where can I change those gestures?
[18:06] <o97115> Settings -> Touchpad has nothing on this
[19:23] <o97115> It **should** be configurable, right? Right?  :)
[19:42] <Maik> o97115: probably not OOTB
[19:42] <Maik> did you google for it already?
[19:42] <Maik> https://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2021/06/multi-touch-gestures-ubuntu-20-04/
[19:43] <o97115> Maik: well, touchegg is X11 only, no? And I want not to enable some customs gestures but to disable those that are forcingly enabled by the system
[19:45] <Maik> dunno, i for one do not use Wayland nor did i try it (touchegg)
[19:46] <o97115> I just can't imagine that a feature like a gesture would be hardcoded... There must be a way :)
[19:46] <o97115> Unfortunately, I can't find it... :(
[19:47] <Maik> well.. probably blame the Gnome devs
[19:48] <o97115> Maik: don't want to blame anybody :) And thanks for your interst anyway!
[19:48] <ogra> o97115, how about https://discourse.gnome.org/t/how-to-disable-edit-touchpad-gestures-in-gnome-40/6081/2
[19:49] <ogra> "For now, you’ll have to hack /usr/lib64/gnome-shell/libgnome-shell.so … edit with a hex editor
[19:49] <ogra> Find this “GESTURE_FINGER_COUNT = 3” … change 3 to 4. or maybe change in to 5 to disable swiping in the shell."
[19:49] <o97115> ogra: thanks!
[19:49] <ogra> fun 🙂
[19:49] <o97115> will look into it
[19:49] <o97115> :)
[19:49] <ogra> but the libinput config might help for applications at least
[19:52] <donofrio> here is the output when I do an ls command - https://dpaste.org/DPt7 - thoughts?
[19:55] <tomreyn> donofrio: which ubuntu release and kernel version is running?
[19:55] <alkisg> donofrio: it seems like a stale network mount. Unmount, fix network, mount again
[20:50] <donofrio> tomreyn, 20.04.4
[20:51] <donofrio> alkisg, not stale I can do a directory listing of it just when I try to do a find command on it the find command doens't like it or something
[20:53] <alkisg> donofrio: what mount is it, nfs, cifs, sshfs?
[20:54] <ioria> i bet on sshfs
[20:56] <donofrio> WSL2 it is a windows mount using drvfs /mnt/l = "sudo mount -t drvfs l: /mnt/l" and the windows 10 workstation it is just a net use to a windows server mapped as l:
[20:57] <alkisg> Does mkdir test work there?
[20:57] <donofrio> checking
[20:58] <donofrio> permission denied, I'm just a normal user
[21:03] <morganu> something exists called #test donofrio
[21:04]  * morganu invites donofrio to #test
[21:05]  * alkisg has left windows decades ago and doesn't want to touch anything like wsl...
[21:17] <funhouse> question, when i do nmap on my local server it shows `5432/tcp open  postgresql`
[21:17] <funhouse> but when i do from a remote server it shows `5432/tcp closed postgresql`
[21:17] <funhouse> is this an iptables issue?
[21:17] <wez> alkisg: wsl is nasty
[21:18] <sarnold> funhouse: what exactly do you think the issue is?
[21:18] <funhouse> sarnold: im not sure, thats why i asked if iptables
[21:19] <funhouse> i opened all connections in the config
[21:19] <sarnold> funhouse: are you trying to expose your postgres server to the network?
[21:19] <sarnold> funhouse: or are you trying to make sure that your postgres isn't available over the network?
[21:20] <funhouse> sarnold: expose/open to all
[21:20] <sarnold> funhouse: check sudo ss -tnlp what addresses the postgres server is bound to
[21:21] <funhouse> sarnold: `LISTEN          0               244                               [::]:5432                           [::]:*             users:(("postgres",pid=178842,fd=6))`
[21:22] <funhouse> sarnold: and this
[21:22] <funhouse> `LISTEN          0               244                            0.0.0.0:5432                        0.0.0.0:*             users:(("postgres",pid=178842,fd=5))`
[21:25] <sarnold> funhouse: nice, those look pretty open indeed :) so yeah, next check, your iptables rules, and if you're hosting this machine in aws or another cloud environment, something like "security groups", etc
[21:25] <donofrio> morganu, #test?
[21:29] <funhouse> sarnold: yes port is open
[21:29] <funhouse> sarnold: do you know how to check the rules?
[21:30] <sarnold> funhouse: try iptables -L
[21:30] <sarnold> funhouse: I don't think that's exhaustive, but I don't know iptables real well :(
[21:31] <donofrio> wez, hu why do you say that is anything it will bring linux people from windows right?
[21:31] <octav1a> h
[21:32] <donofrio> I'm using wayland right now no x11 client at all...just download from store install update put xfce4 on it and it work swimmingly...
[21:57] <funhouse> sarold: IPTABLES is wide open
[21:57] <funhouse> sarnold*
[21:57] <funhouse> sarnold
[21:58] <wez> donofrio: It won't, it encourages people to use Windows when they want to use Linux. Counter productive
[21:58] <wez> donofrio: WSL also has a bunch of technical fault with it. I believe WSL2 is a lot better, but still.
[21:58] <wez> faults*
[22:05] <sarnold> funhouse: hmm then I'm not sure where else to look, if iptables -L shows no rules to block traffic, and there's no fireweall rules at your provider..
[22:24] <yolo> on ubuntu 20.04 a few times a day my gnome just freezes for a few seconds, no cursor movement no keyboard allowed, then it refreshes and comes back, what could be the cause? gnome-shell extensions? where can I check logging for this kind of error?
[22:24] <sarnold> yolo: try running free -h --- how much swap space is used?
[22:25] <yolo> mostly triggered by I'm doing some typing on gnome-shell, or quitting vim,etc
[22:25] <yolo> sarnold: plenty of memory here and rarely swap is touched
[22:25] <yolo> 10GB RAM left, 1280 swap used
[22:25] <yolo> in bytes
[22:26] <sarnold> that's good but a bit of a bummer since now I'm not sure what to suggest
[22:26] <sarnold> gnome-shell extensions is quite plausible, those can interact oddly with a lot of things
[22:27] <yolo> i lived with it for a while but it gets a bit frequent thus a bit annoying nowadays
[22:27] <sarnold> it's also possible it's the javascript engine doing a garbage collection, but that's hard to know..
[22:27] <yolo> if it's GC, it should pause, in my case, the screen actually pause then the windows are not exactly the same in overlapping order
[22:28] <yolo> their content are intact however, which is good
[22:28] <yolo> GC should just pause and resume and not messing up with layouts
[22:28] <sarnold> oh *weird*
[22:28] <yolo> wish  there is a log I can 'tail -f' on the size to see what's going one
[22:29] <sarnold> yolo: maybe you've got an ~/.xsession-errors file ? try that.. also journalctl -f  -- that sometimes gets good results
[22:33] <yolo> yes i will run journctl by the side in the hope to catch it next time
[23:14] <yrdsb> hi waht do you recommned lts or non lts
[23:15] <jhutchins>  yrdsb: Depends on what you want, what you're going to use it for.
[23:15] <yrdsb> i will use it for
[23:15] <yrdsb> generel use
[23:15] <yrdsb> like web browsing photoedintg and gaming
[23:16] <jhutchins> yrdsb: Do you just want a stable, reliable platform, or do you want to try new things?
[23:16] <yrdsb> i want a stable reliable platfomr
[23:16] <yrdsb> stablilty is more imporatent then features
[23:17] <jhutchins> yrdsb: Go with LTS then.  THere will be fewer changes, and you will be able to use the same versions for a longer period.
[23:17] <yrdsb> wait a minute
[23:17] <yrdsb> 9 months of support
[23:17] <yrdsb> too short
[23:18] <yrdsb> I tried 21.10 before
[23:18] <yrdsb> and i am trying it again but i install vbox guest additon in it many times
[23:18] <yrdsb> and 21.10 kept breaking
