That's 10 years ago. Can this key still be trusted? Here's the output from gpg: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/TC2MDjCTPG/ [05:08] Why would it not be trustable? As long as there has never been revoked your fine, no? [05:14] EldonMcGuinness: I would've thought signing keys would expire more often, in the same way that credit cards do. [05:16] Not really, most of the keys I've interacted with do not have an expiration date. Really no need to as long as you generate a revocation certificate and remember your password you're golden. At least that has always been my understanding. [05:17] To be honest, I can not think of a single key I've encountered that does have an expiration date [05:53] EldonMcGuinness: Oh okay, thanks for explaining. :-) [05:54] no problem === Ricardus_ is now known as Ricardus === polve2 is now known as polve === polve2 is now known as polve [07:01] Hi, just installed Ubuntu Linux from scratch.

[07:25] or is there any documentation on how to preseed the new installer? [07:26] !next | pmjdebruijn [07:26] pmjdebruijn: Jammy Jellyfish is the codename for Ubuntu 22.04. For technical support, see #ubuntu-next. For testing and QA feedback and help, see #ubuntu-quality. [07:34] preseeding with the new ubiquity installer? [07:35] oerheks: the new text based installer that was also in 20.04, is that called ubiquity as well? [07:36] yes, new one is Ubiquity NG [07:36] based on curtin [07:36] https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2018/05/mark-shuttleworth-outlines-plans-for-a-next-gen-ubuntu-installer [07:36] not sure howto preseed with that one.. [07:37] salut [07:37] oerheks: it seems bizarre to replacement the server installer without preseeding being obvious though [07:39] some places suggest it the same syntax as d-i [07:40] pmjdebruijn: I *think* the new installer is called subiquity and it's favouring "cloud-init" over the d-i preseeding. But I'm only saying these two words as google-pointers, I'm usually uninstalling cloud-init anyway... :) [07:41] alkisg: tnx for the subiquity reference! === westor is now known as Guest8784 === chalcedny is now known as Sunrise === mort7 is now known as mort === DonRichie2 is now known as DonRichie === rdr_ is now known as rdr [09:29] !info fcitx [09:29] fcitx (1:4.2.9.8-3, impish): Flexible Input Method Framework.

Does anyone have any ideas why? [12:41] did you restart sshd? How did you measure when the disconnect happened? [12:43] I've restarted sshd and bounced the server [12:49] Hi all [12:50] rebooting the server does not appear to trigger disconnects on the login clients though :/ [12:56] Oh, maybe you misunderstood LoginGraceTime. That's the amount of time a client is allowed to auth. Disconnect happens only when auth is not completed in that time. [12:57] That's what I thought - I've set it to 20, and then left a login prompt idle without providing a password - it's still sitting there 20m later === diskin_ is now known as diskin === jesopo is now known as jess [12:59] but that does not mean it did not disconnect [12:59] try giving a password at 21 seconds [12:59] you'll probably see the server is gone [13:00] So it goes back to my earlier question: "How did you measure when the disconnect happened?" [13:13] Greetings, I can't get hibernate to work. I've followed the instructions at "https://www.linuxuprising.com/2021/08/how-to-enable-hibernation-on-ubuntu.html" but when I hibernate and restart, the system show "restoring hibernation" but it never completes. I have to shutdown and boot the normal way. Any suggestions? [13:14] oh, I have not tried that [13:15] you are a genius thank you [13:15] you saved a considerable portion of the dwindling resource that is my sanity [13:15] haha [13:16] I don't know why the client does not immediately see the disconnect.

[14:07] there's rootfs & boot & home [14:07] 756mb, why did you do that wokerslaugh [14:07] dual boot? [14:07] wokerslaugh: what makes you think you can create a rootfs less than half the size of the minimum requirements? [14:08] root must be given the maximum space, all apps intalled there only [14:08] i'm not dual booting .. and the reason why it's set like that because i didn't make it this way i followed someone's instructions [14:09] I have given almot 90 % / and 10 % home+efi [14:09] what's the command to check the space of rootfs [14:09] df -h [14:09] or you can use lsblk [14:10] wokerslaugh: don't follow their instructions. You need to rebuild with a bigger rootfs [14:10] oh wait boot is 725 mb home is 22gb rootfs is 30gb [14:10] but 100% use [14:10] mounted on / [14:11] wokerslaugh: what is at 100% / or /boot? [14:11] well I think you can extend that using gparted [14:11] but first keep backup of your /home [14:12] 100% use for / [14:12] wokerslaugh: I would highly recommend just reinstalling from scratch and just pick the default of 1 partition.

There are use cases [14:13] wokerslaugh: you heard wrong [14:14] Your Root partition is running out of disk space, you have 83 MiB remaining (0%). p, li { white-space: pre-wrap; } [14:14] wokerslaugh, yes there is really a benifit [14:15] don't go with the default install [14:15] yuzi: bad advice === Vercas4 is now known as Vercas [14:15] lol i'm lost [14:15] yuzi: there's a reason for defaults [14:16] wokerslaugh: just do 1 partition.

[14:23] "rm /var/cache/apt/archives/*.deb" is safe to execute for example [14:23] sda [14:24] hello [14:24] ravage: the proper way is to sudo apt clean [14:24] wokerslaugh: tune2fs -m2 /dev/sda [14:24] it really does not make a difference [14:24] wokerslaugh: sudo tune2fs -m2 /dev/sda [14:24] "rm /var/cache/apt/archives/*.deb" is safe to execute for example [14:24] my ft232 usb adapter works not correctly in ubuntu [14:25] 232?

[16:25] in focal, to combine kernel command line options "cgroup_enable=cpuset" and "cdgroup_enable=memory", do I list both or do I need to merge them so the 2nd won't overwrite the 1st? [16:25] nevermind, found the "d" in 2nd [16:25] haha, yeah [16:26] OTOH, c+d+group looks like it might be a type on the tutorial. [16:27] would explain why some folks comment that it had no effect. [16:30] Sven_vB: It might help if you said what application you were working in. Focal is a release tag, not an environment. [16:31] jhutchins, I'm trying to configure kernel 5.4.0-106-lowlatency in a way that allows docker to limit CPU and RAM use. [16:32] on x86_64 desktop Ubuntu focal [16:32] gives it no lts development release? [16:32] Sven_vB: So kernel config file is the context. [16:32] nope, kernel boot options in my GRUB config [16:33] There we go. [16:33] sorry, I thought that was the only meaning of kernel command line options. [16:33] Sorry. I blame bad eyesight. [16:33] well I guess there would be a default command line in kernel config when you build one [16:34] Sven_vB: Yes, that's possible. [16:34] In my case I hope GRUB config will suffice :) [16:37] also I wonder, there is no cgroup_enable in https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v5.4/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.html , only cgroup_disable. does it mean CPU and RAM limit support should be enabled by default in 5.4.x kernels? [16:50] anyone know with barrier does it also need each additional screen added for that specific client? [16:50] like if client 1 has 2 screens and client 2 has 2 screens do I need to add 4 or just 3 or just 2 screens?

[18:01] like right after cut?

[18:05] ok thank you composite_higgs [18:05] lotuspsychje ubuntu people are cool thats all [18:05] Unless you have strong guarantees on the content of that CSV file I'd use Python to do this.

[18:20] i dont know what commands to inside sources.list [18:29] Hi [18:30] welcome Andrew1981 [18:30] Anyone here can tell me why 18.04 LTS server is missing the system group netdev? Seraching on google did not give any results so far. [18:31] As far as I know debian is having this system group by default and I aasumed Ubuntu does as well but seems not to be the case. Am I missing something? [18:32] Noone? [18:33] hey. I have mounted a raspberry pi's dying microsd in my main pc as readonly to save as much as poossible and migrate to a new one. Is there a way to get a list of expicitly installed software from that system? a sqlite file? csv? plaintext? [18:34] According to https://wiki.debian.org/SystemGroups: netdev: Members of this group can manage network interfaces through the network manager and wicd. [18:37] Andrew1981: https://sources.debian.org/src/wicd/1.7.4%2Btb2%2B2019.09.18git2e0ba579-1/debian/wicd-daemon.postinst/#L26 [18:37] Andrew1981: As far as I know, netdev (or rather _netdev) is an fstab option, not a group. [18:39] it's a group if you install wicd [18:39] no sorry on Debian based distros this used to be a system group, see my link above [18:39] even without wicd [18:39] Well there's yer problem. [18:39] But I might be wrong [18:41] Question is, how is one otherwise able to grant access to network management commands (i.e. ip or ifconfig) to a non root user? [18:41] Andrew1981: sudo? [18:42] networkmanager (and probably systemd-networkd) can do polkit-based authorization, too [18:43] the user is used to run a legacy server console application which creates an ip alias using ifconfig, without any interactive user session [18:44] on debian one might acieve this by adding the user to the netdev group, on my ubuntu server 18.04 machine I am not seeing this option because the netdev group seems not to exist at all [18:44] *achieve [18:47] I was hoping it is the same, but it's not. Is this related to systemd somehow or why is the group missing? Should it have been created under normal circumstances by default? I am just trying to understand if this is expected behaviour. [18:48] Andrew1981: Is sudo nopass a solution? [18:48] acognini, hey maybe you can use something like /var/lib/apt/extended_states [18:49] you should see entries like: Package: grub-common [18:49] Architecture: amd64 [18:49] Auto-Installed: 0 [18:49] Package: linux-headers-2.6.35-22-generic [18:49] Architecture: amd64 [18:49] Auto-Installed: 1 [18:49] Andrew1981: the netdev group would only have meaning to an application that manages the network interfaces -- in this case, it sounds like network manager and wicd. on ubuntu the network manager polkit rules don't require netdev membership. (I bet it isn't required on debian, either.) [18:53] sarnold: Okay, so I checked and it seems as it is a server the network is managed by systemd only [18:53] can I just grant some user the ability to use ifconfig instead of running the application in question with root priviledges === Bencraft5 is now known as Bencraft [18:54] Andrew1981: Running it with root privileges is how you grant permission. [18:56] Unsafest way poosible, I'd rather avoid that because that is good practice, there must be a better way... [18:57] maybe I am missing something in the .service file in question? [18:57] Andrew1981: Using a sudo permission is exactly how you do it. Nothing "unsafest" about it. [18:57] Andrew1981: It's safer than using a group in that it only allows one user one command. [18:58] Andrew1981: I don't understand polkit well enough to tell you what to type, but probably what you want to do can be done by configuring the org.freedesktop.network1.policy polkit actions correctly [19:00] As far as my undestanding is, netdev group is working in a similar way compared to adding a user to e.g. dialout group if it needs to use dialout connections so you do not need to have root privileges [19:01] But maybe I confused something here [19:07] The Debian method of granting access to devices like the network cards, audio output, printers, etc., is to add a user to the appropriate system group. Is this no longer true for 18.04 server and networking? [19:09] Andrew1981: dialout group was different because those have device nodes in the /dev/ filesystem that could have group ownerships, group acls, etc === diskin is now known as Guest9432 === diskin_ is now known as diskin [19:10] Andrew1981: there's no similar thing for network interfaces; those require CAP_NET_ADMIN to work on -- which basically means that you need either root privileges to modify the interfaces with ip, or you need a daemon like systemd-networkd or networkmanager to perform the operations for unprivileged users [19:12] I see, so that seems to have changed. I can remember this being a problem in older wireshark versions and distros as well. Okay. Thank you. [19:13] I did some research on capabilities when I was struggling with that... [19:14] My maybe wrong assumption was, that being a memeber in netdev group granted exactly that: CAP_NET_ADMIN [19:14] Some problems haunt you forever ^^ [19:16] hah, yeah, group membership gives you a brand new integer in your supplementary groups [19:16] that's it :) [19:17] Yep, thank you for pinting that out, I think the way to go here is similar to: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1956732/is-it-possible-to-configure-linux-capabilities-per-user [19:17] *pointing [19:18]
