| morganu | better late than never: Unlike su, the sudo command will request the password of the current user, not the root password. Because of its security implications, sudo access is not granted to users by default, and must be set up before it functions correctly. Check out our How To Create a New Sudo-enabled User quickstart tutorials for Ubuntu and CentOS to learn how to set up a sudo-enabled user. | 00:04 |

| sarnold | that's a decent enough guide, good call | 00:07 |
| sarnold | I really hate the sudo documentation; it's just so *dense* when what most people need is two or three very simple examples | 00:08 |
| sarnold | 99% of users will only ever use 1% of sudo's functionality, but the docs are written to be completely comprehensive.. (even this DO guide is imho too detailed, but it's definitely better for most people than the official docs) | 00:09 |
| ravage | make-sudo-great-again.com is still available :) | 00:10 |
| sarnold | lol | 00:10 |
| sarnold | I was just thinking of an ubuntu wiki page, but .. | 00:11 |
| sarnold | you've shown me my ambitions were perhaps too limited | 00:11 |
| matsaman | 'man sudo', /EXAMPLS | 00:12 |
| matsaman | /EXAMPLES, even | 00:12 |
| matsaman | /etc/sudoers has its own examples usually | 00:12 |
| matsaman | but Ubuntu's way of using sudo is really an abuse of its purpose. Not that Ubuntu is alone in this approach | 00:12 |
| sarnold | matsaman: heh, the sudoers(5) EXAMPLES is around 200 lines of stuff, of which *one* feels like it's the level of simplcity that most people need: | 00:14 |
| sarnold | joe ALL = /usr/bin/su operator | 00:15 |
| sarnold | even that one line is funny because it just lets the user in question run su. that's such a stupid example :) | 00:15 |
| matsaman | the whole thing is pretty stupid | 00:15 |
| sarnold | lol | 00:15 |
| sarnold | it's been a few years since I looked at the doas program, but I remember thinking it'd be really nice to switch.. | 00:16 |
| matsaman | I mean, ordinary normo people shouldn't be the use case for using plain sudo | 00:17 |
| matsaman | all the GUI frontends have always been a huge mess, though, for sure | 00:17 |
| sarnold | aye, I've got complaints about polkit, too! ;) | 00:18 |
| blugreen | hi everyone,may i ask assistance on how to know if the device issue is connected w/ kernel,driver,or hardware fault ? im troubleshooting a wifi adapter | 00:18 |
| sarnold | blugreen: there's no easy way to tell. | 00:18 |
| Unit193 | sarnold: There's an ITP for opendoas-portable so soon both will be in the archive. :P | 00:18 |
| leftyfb | bluesabre: did the newer kernel help you? | 00:18 |
| blugreen | sarnold, it was working fine 3 days ago. :( | 00:19 |
| blugreen | leftyfb, stil freezing | 00:19 |
| leftyfb | bluesabre: I would look into hardware issues | 00:19 |
| blugreen | leftyfb, im using wavemon on that particular adapter for monitoring,it shows its connected,but no ping | 00:20 |
| blugreen | is there a utility app tester for wifi adapters? just like a ram tester | 00:22 |
| sarnold | oh dang that'd be nice | 00:22 |
| sarnold | any chance you might have turned off power saving mode a while ago, and after a reboot need to turn off power save mode again? | 00:23 |
| sarnold | powersave modes can lead to poor experience, and the usual way to turn it off isn't persistent across reboots | 00:23 |
| blugreen | sarnold, is powersave mode same as power mgt ? | 00:24 |
| sarnold | blugreen: yeah | 00:24 |
| blugreen | it is set to off & persistent after reboot | 00:24 |
| blugreen | any other way of checking system integrity aside from forcefck on boot ? | 00:26 |
| leftyfb | blugreen: maybe try an ubuntu live usb and see if you still have issues | 00:28 |
| blugreen | ayt,i need to DL and setup a live ubuntu18 then | 00:30 |
| leftyfb | blugreen: use ubuntu 20.04 | 00:30 |
| blugreen | noted. | 00:30 |
| blugreen | mswindows has a system check utility after a system crash,does ubuntu has 1 too ? | 00:31 |
| sarnold | not really, there's memtest86 and memtest86+, those are handy; you can run debsums -c to make sure a lot of the files have reasonable checksums.. | 00:33 |
| blugreen | gotcha | 00:33 |
| sarnold | if you've got zfs installed, starting a scrub can help you find corruption on the disk beyond just the files in the debsums indexes | 00:33 |
| blugreen | is there a smaller version of live ubuntu 20.04 ? | 00:34 |
| blugreen | will add zfs to my to do list | 00:34 |
| leftyfb | blugreen: zfs is a filesystem which you are not using. | 00:36 |
| leftyfb | blugreen: you've given no indication that your issue is related to your filesystem or storage device | 00:37 |
| blugreen | leftyfb, yea,im jz being thourough,coz theres a lot of force shutdown lately coz of the adapter | 00:38 |
| leftyfb | blugreen: also, "system check utility" in windows is not a hardware diagnostic tool. You're probably referring to sfc which is only to check the health of Windows system files. Nothing to do with hardware or even drivers | 00:38 |

| ox0000ff | Does it make any difference if I install 22.04 before its official release? | 10:50 |
| ogra | ox0000ff, it can ... bugs from a pre-release might set wrong defaults that get fixed only for release-to-relase upgrades ... so when installing from a pre-release you should watch the uploads and changes carefully and make sure your defaults are adjusted accordingly | 10:57 |
| ogra | beyond this you will indeed get all changed release binaries on release day with a simple apt upgrade ... | 10:58 |
| guiverc | ox0000ff, Ubuntu 22.04 isn't supported here, it's supported via #ubuntu-next | 11:02 |

| WeeBey | Hello frens! I'm excited. I came across a post on bugzilla.kernel.org that may fix issues with my touchpad + suspend. However, I'd like to know: How do I disable the touchpad before the system goes to suspend (i.e., when lid is closed)? Would I add something to to grub to unload the i2c_hid_acpi and i2c_hid modules? | 11:26 |
| WeeBey | I'm thinking that if I unload the modules before the system suspends, then enable them after suspend, I wouldn't lose my touchpad on suspend. | 11:26 |

| leftyfb | clarkk: what do you expect the result to be and what are you seeing? | 15:08 |
| clarkk | leftyfb, I would have expected ipv6 to be disabled for that gateway, but ip -6 route still shows it | 15:09 |
| clarkk | leftyfb, but I'm just guessing, because I haven't seen the docs for this | 15:09 |
| leftyfb | clarkk: define "disabled for that gateway" | 15:10 |
| clarkk | leftyfb, I haven't seen the docs, so it's a pure guess. No ipv6 default route | 15:10 |
| leftyfb | clarkk: what is this machine exactly? Is it acting as a gateway/router? | 15:11 |
| clarkk | leftyfb, the local machine? No, just a standard workstation | 15:11 |
| leftyfb | clarkk: is your gateway giving out ipv6 addresses? | 15:12 |
| clarkk | leftyfb, I believe so | 15:12 |
| leftyfb | clarkk: is your gateway/router configured to give out ipv6 addresses? Otherwise, a machine assigning itself ipv6 shouldn't be an issue in most cases | 15:13 |

| clarkk | leftyfb, I would like to temporarily and programmatically disable (and re-enable) the default gateway for ipv6. I was just experimenting with this particular setting in case that isn't possible. The docs viewed by hitting F1 doesn't really go into that much detail about each individual setting, from what I can tell | 15:21 |
| ogra | Guest512, gnome-language-selector lets you remove the ones you do not need IIRC | 15:25 |
| ogra | (from an installed system that is ... won't work in a live session indeed) | 15:26 |
| leftyfb | I don't think they take up much space | 15:27 |
| Guest512 | ogra, thanks. Do you know about kubuntu? | 15:27 |
| transhumanist | is there better directions (more complete) step by step including custom naming kernel and generating running .config and stuff including signing the kernel and all for Ubuntu kernels on 21.10? These directions seem insufficient https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/BuildYourOwnKernel | 15:27 |
| leftyfb | transhumanist: #anbox did tell you that the modules for anbox are included in ubuntu, did they not? | 15:28 |
| Guest512 | In my installation downloading kubuntu language packs is taking about half an hour and estimated to take another 15-71 minutes. | 15:28 |
| transhumanist | they are not included in 21.10 so it seems one of them is not compiled in the kernel | 15:28 |
| transhumanist | due to some security change and issue | 15:29 |
| ogra | Guest512, nope, i dont, but there should be #kubuntu to help you | 15:29 |
| transhumanist | anyway I just have a few problems with my custom kernel (ones i just listed) | 15:29 |
| Guest512 | thanks ogra, I did not know that. | 15:29 |
| leftyfb | transhumanist: it's in 20.04. Maybe go with that since 20.10 will be EOL in 3 months | 15:30 |
| leftyfb | sorry, 21.10 | 15:30 |

| transhumanist | I cant really downgrade | 15:30 |
| === Sven_vB_ is now known as Sven_vB | ||
| leftyfb | transhumanist: nope, I mean reinstall with 20.04 since that is an LTS release that will be supported for another 3 years where-as the OS your running will only be supported for 3 months | 15:31 |
| leftyfb | also, 21.10 doesn't do what you want and 20.04 does | 15:31 |
| transhumanist | I am using tpmv2 and there seems to be some issues still when upgrading (as in it seems to loose the tpmv2 signatures during upgrade ( or forgets to ask for the password I should day) | 15:31 |
| transhumanist | I can reinstall and preserve my home directory which is on a separate partition ( but the TPMv2 thing will screw it over I think) | 15:32 |
| transhumanist | make it inaccessible | 15:32 |
| rob0 | transhumanist: just curious, are you sure you need a custom kernel? | 15:35 |
| transhumanist | one question to qualify before answering rob0 can I in the future upgrade to 21.04 from 21.10 | 15:35 |
| transhumanist | I forget if there is a path for this | 15:36 |
| leftyfb | transhumanist: 20.04, not 21.04 | 15:36 |
| transhumanist | sorry I mean t 21.04 from 21.10 | 15:36 |
| leftyfb | no | 15:36 |
| leftyfb | 21.04 is EOL | 15:36 |
| leftyfb | you want 20.04 | 15:36 |
| ogra | or wait two days for 22.04 | 15:36 |

| ogra | rob0, depends on the part of the world you are in 😉 | 15:39 |
| ogra | typically the latest moment for release is when the last timezone in the world leaves Apr 21 ... for many that can be the 22nd already | 15:41 |

| transhumanist | leftyfb: how do I resolve the loss of access to my /home directory issue in a relatively safe way (I have no room to back up a TB of data < I know how to reinstall I just don't know how to get the installer to acknowledge the proper TPMv2 signing of the /home directory? | 15:46 |
| leftyfb | transhumanist: if you don't have backups, the data isn't important | 15:46 |
| JoeBk | transhumanist, you need to get external usb drive | 15:47 |
| transhumanist | its a question of finances right now, the cobblers kids shoes types of deal. I will see if I can get space on terms with onedrive and see if I can copy important data to it from Linux, Problem of course though is my windows guest VM which is going to be one damn big file copy | 15:50 |

| ubunt1 | well thats good | 15:53 |

| transhumanist | it wont be so bad actually /home has only 58 gig in it but it does mean loss of android studio which is in the / for some reason | 15:55 |

| transhumanist | seems I am all set, deleted a bunch of useless crap off old drive, enough to backup all the data at least. Any idea on the best way to avoid the tpmv2 issues on a rollback (preserving home directory ) I would rather not start all over with rebuilding the layout of the home directory if possible, it is possible but I prefer not to | 16:34 |
| Guest512 | transhumanist, how did you get into a TPM problem? Wondering what I need to avoid ... | 16:36 |
| fikran | I installed ohmybash/zsh, but my terminal is missing some fonts. I recall in the past I downloaded some fonts from a 3rd party site and the characters were rendering correctly. | 16:37 |
| transhumanist | I built it with TPMv2 being enabled , did signature signing and all sorts of crap and vTPM as well for guests (I did it because work wanted to go that way) but on my first install with vTPMv2 I attempted an in place upgrade to ubuntu 21.10 (time before this one) and it litterally never asked for the TPMv2 password so it was a big problem , drive became inaccessible (or at least I have no idea how to get it back (only thing is I have the | 16:39 |
| transhumanist | key thats in the system bios and I know the password (so some day it might be possible. I just dont need a repeat of that when I redo the install | 16:39 |
| transhumanist | s/possible. / possible.) | 16:40 |
| transhumanist | Guest512: https://run.tournament.org.il/ubuntu-20-04-and-tpm2-encrypted-system-disk/ this might be of some help, I have written a whole process (and its burried somewhere for installing TPMv2 on windows and linux also TPMv2 bipass instructions for windows 11. BACKUPS really are a necessity with an offline off site storage in a locked area with a password list and encryption keys printed on payer behind the well locked doors because failu | 17:02 |
| transhumanist | res means loosing everything | 17:02 |
| Guest512 | high stakes game with data | 17:03 |
| transhumanist | Guest512: here you go if you like signed adventures (not this does not include bitlocker encryption , I was going to save that for a future adventure into virtual tpm . My directions for windows 11 bipass come from github ... see google for something like : """ windows 11 tpmv2 bipass github """ | 17:10 |

| jongsta | nevermind, what i thought happened didn't happen heh | 17:11 |
| transhumanist | anyway my data is backed up , time to see if this is going to be a crap show | 17:11 |
| jongsta | this script was working last week. it installed the 5.4 kernel, updated /etc/grub.conf to boot into it, rebooted the server which loaded the 5.4 kernel | 17:12 |
| jongsta | but that's not working anymore for some reason | 17:12 |
| jongsta | i think i see the problem | 17:15 |
| ogra | jongsta, ubuntu has never in its life used /etc/grub.conf ... in fact the grub configuration has always been generated from the values in /etc/default/grub ... if you need to adjust something do it there and run update-grub afterwards | 17:23 |
| jongsta | sorry, i meant /etc/default/grub | 17:24 |
| jongsta | and i found the problem. sometime in the last week there was an update to the 5.4 kernel and my script was setting the previous version to load | 17:25 |

| blahboybaz | I'm wondering if the install software for ubuntu has a way you can use the default install options as a base but go in and just tweak the size of one thing (as opposed to starting from scratch on everything)? | 18:47 |
| genii | blahboybaz: What is it you wanted to modify? | 18:49 |
| leftyfb | blahboybaz: https://ubuntu.com/server/docs/install/autoinstall-quickstart | 18:50 |
| genii | Because most things generally have a .conf file somwhere you can edit. But there's also dpkg-reconfigure for some others, if it's something like a compile-time option which needs to be changed then it starts getting messy | 18:52 |
| blahboybaz | genii: In my current installation (20.04) the I have run into trouble with "/boot" being too small - but I like the default configuration aside from that one thing. If/when I install a later version or on another machine I want to increase the size of "/boot" slightly but leave everything else according to default parameters | 18:58 |
| blahboybaz | I know that it is possible to resize logical volumes (lvm) but I would rather make it easy during the install process than later go try to resize something | 18:59 |
| blahboybaz | iirc - the linux files system (ext4?) is superior mostly because it does not have fragmentation issues (like fat and ntfs) but resizing a volume (lvm) results in fragmentation - iirc | 19:01 |
| Chunkyz | !isitoutyet | 19:01 |
| ubottu | Yeees! Ubuntu 21.10 is OUT! Celebrate in #ubuntu-release-party 🎉 | 19:01 |
| blahboybaz | yay! | 19:01 |
| ogra | heh, the factoids could need an update for tomorrow | 19:01 |
| Chunkyz | ogra: indeed... | 19:02 |
| rob0 | haha | 19:03 |
| Chunkyz | rob0: *what's* funny? | 19:03 |
| leftyfb | blahboybaz: the default installer on ubuntu will not make a separate /boot AFAIK. Unless you're doing FDE | 19:06 |
| === five643333496344 is now known as five64333349634 | ||
| genii | blahboybaz: I would suspect that your /boot is being filled up with old kernels, which could be cleaned up with: sudo apt --purge autoremove | 19:07 |
| carnophage2 | i am having problems with one of my ubuntu vms. It seems to have trouble starting up and crashes/freezes. | 19:08 |
| leftyfb | carnophage2: what version of ubuntu is it running? | 19:09 |
| carnophage2 | how do i check? | 19:09 |
| leftyfb | carnophage2: if you can get on it, cat /etc/os-release | 19:10 |
| leftyfb | usually people know what version they installed | 19:11 |
| blahboybaz | leftyfb: That link you gave refers to installing on a virtual machine - I'm talking about a bare metal install. Also it doesn't say anything (that I can find) about default settings or patition or volume sizes. My "/boot" is being filled up with old kernel but purging them is not what I would prefer. I would prefer to not have the problem. Now, I'm not sure what the source of the problem is (why old | 19:13 |
| blahboybaz | kernels pile up) but it doesn't seem to continue forever - they don't keep piling up they just exceed the space available. And I'm not sure the best way to eliminate the problem (so I don't have to deal with it periodically) but I thought that making either/and/or making "/boot" its own volume or partition and increasing its size (especially increasing its size) might do that | 19:13 |
| carnophage2 | I am using Focal Fossa | 19:13 |
| blahboybaz | fwiw I am not planning on actually doing an install any time soon nor a reinstall just trying to get information for the next time | 19:13 |
| rob0 | Chunkyz: the factoid? Sorry. | 19:14 |
| leftyfb | blahboybaz: the link I gave you is not specific to virtual machines. They aren't even mentioned on the page | 19:14 |
| leftyfb | blahboybaz: in the future, don't make a separate /boot partition | 19:14 |
| blahboybaz | I had hoped there was a way to simply edit the default install configuration so that you get to start with the default settings not from scratch | 19:15 |
| leftyfb | blahboybaz: the default is not to have a separate /boot | 19:15 |
| leftyfb | leave it at that and you'll be fine | 19:15 |
| blahboybaz | leftyfb: ok but the actual question was ^ not the means by which to perform an install | 19:16 |
| blahboybaz | omg | 19:16 |
| blahboybaz | Its cool I'll try to revisit the question another time | 19:16 |
| blahboybaz | thanks | 19:16 |
| carnophage2 | But it seems every few days the machine starts having problems and won't boot at all, or starts throwing errors at startup | 19:17 |
| carnophage2 | I don't know if it's vbox or the vm itself and am sort of lost. | 19:18 |
| matsaman | carnophage2: what errors | 19:18 |
| matsaman | copy them down next time | 19:18 |
| carnophage2 | Sometimes just blinking cursor, sometimes blank screen, and this last time there were vbox memory errors | 19:19 |
| carnophage2 | And I'm not doing anything unusual with the machine other than installing xubuntu-desktop | 19:19 |
| carnophage2 | and it was working before, so i am at a loss. | 19:19 |
| matsaman | what version of vbox? Might just try older or newer first | 19:20 |
| carnophage2 | I'll look into that right now, i had considered that myself. | 19:21 |

| lmat | I'm trying to install php5.6-zip like it says https://stackoverflow.com/questions/38104348 (and elsewhere). I tried php5.6-zip and php-zip, no cigar. E: Unable to locate package php5.6-zip | 19:27 |
| sarnold | that answer is from six years ago | 19:27 |
| sarnold | php5.6 is no longer the newest thing :) | 19:27 |
| lmat | sarnold: Since when has ubuntu been focused on "newest thing"? :-P | 19:29 |
| lmat | sarnold: Yeah, I know it's old. So php-zip for 5.6 is a no go? I guess I'll have to get more creative! | 19:29 |
| sarnold | lmat: if you installed php 5.6 yourself, you're going to be responsible for supplying the packages, too, yeah | 19:32 |
| lmat | sarnold: I'm using the php:5.6-apache docker image. Same thing I guess ;-) | 19:33 |
| sarnold | lmat: aha! then you get to ask them to supply the package? :) | 19:35 |
| lmat | sarnold: I guess so! | 19:36 |
| NCEric | Hi, I've ran "sudo gpasswd -a myuser docker" and even after logging out and back in I still don't see my group applied. SSH'ing in or doing "su - $USERID" works... but not logging out and back in | 19:38 |
| NCEric | Seems there is some process "/lib/systemd/systemd --user" that is a parent process. | 19:39 |
| NCEric | logging out and back in doesn't change this... it'll always be a child process of that one which doesn't think it's part of that group | 19:40 |
| sarnold | oh weird | 19:40 |
| sarnold | NCEric: my guess, loginctl enable-linger is probably related | 19:41 |
| genii | blahboybaz: At the kernel loading line you can specify d-i ( debian-installer) directives. So conceivably you could put a few partman recipes there which would get handed off to the installer | 19:41 |
| sarnold | does your terminal program in your desktop environment get launched from that thing? | 19:41 |
| NCEric | sarnold, https://askubuntu.com/questions/1045993/after-adding-a-group-logoutlogin-is-not-enough-in-18-04 | 19:42 |
| sarnold | NCEric: lol I'ver already upvoted that question and answer.. go figure | 19:42 |
| NCEric | I'll try running "loginctl terminate-user $USER" from an SSH session I guess | 19:42 |
| sarnold | NCEric: thanks :D | 19:42 |
| NCEric | this is my only user. Would be wrong to run this from a graphical login.... but this is a stupid VM so who cares | 19:42 |
| NCEric | watch me disappear from this chat now after running it ;-) | 19:43 |
| * NCEric runs `loginctl terminate-user $USER` from the same session he's using HexChat from | 19:43 | |
