[01:13] Dumb question.. but isn't there a way to write the command (with apt) so that it does both the update and upgrade commands in one? I'm not taling about concatenating command with ";" or "&&" either. I mean like adding a flag to apt upgrade or something similar [01:15] not that I know of [01:19] blahboybaz: It's kind of cheating, but I do this: apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade -u [01:19] blahboybaz: I don't believe so, but I also don't think there's a need for something like that. The software database has to be updated before apt can tell what to upgrade, so something like "apt update-and-upgrade" would have to do the same thing or almost the same thing as "apt update && apt upgrade" anyway. [01:20] blahboybaz: (I do "apt full-upgrade" a lot of times, since that does a more thorough upgrade job.) [01:20] maybe this is why I've heard people say arch's "pacman -Syu" is the easiest and most convenient thing ever [01:21] another option... use the alias command to type one and get both? [01:22] Length of "pacman -Syu": 11 chars. Length of "apt update && apt full-upgrade": 30 chars plus a Y for confirmation. I'll take a bit extra typing over a spontaneously broken system any day of the week. [01:22] sonicwind: hah it sounds a bit obvious once you say it [01:22] was my first thought sarnold [01:23] it's funny, I've got acsh and acs for apt-cache show and apt-cache search; I use them a thousand times a day [01:23] (Not to bash Arch - I've used it, it's cool, but it's way too fragile for my tastes. I enjoyed fixing it when things went wonky, but I don't want to have to fix everything in the middle of my workflow.) [01:30] bahamat: right on.. arraybolt3[m] Well I feel it would be more conventient to run 1 command than 2 but what do I know? [01:30] I suppose I could make an alias [01:31] my alias is "up". it executed a shell script with sudo. and that command is in sudoers without password [01:31] sonicwind: Just saw your comment - yep [01:31] script executes: apt update && apt -y full-upgrade && apt -y autoremove && needrestart -rl [02:08] BlackDex: apt update && apt full-upgrade [02:08] blahboybaz:^ [02:09] blahboybaz: I have aliases on all my machines for that. [02:09] blahboybaz: You can add a -y to the upgrade, but I prefer to check what's happening before I say "go". [02:10] bahamat: I see you beat me to that. [02:11] You gotta be quick on the draw. [02:16] RedHat checks the age of it's indexes and updates them if they're older than a preset. Gentoo checks a list of mirrors to see who's fastest. === pascalm1 is now known as pascalm === leaftype2 is now known as leaftype [04:14] heyyyy. i have an obscure question. i'm working on this stupid SBC (nanopi) from friendlyelec... and I'm using their "lite" distribution. which it turns out is off of ubuntu-base.. it's on a 9 partition disk that appears to be overlayfs/tmpfs [04:15] i'm trying to resize the final partition so i can shrink the disk image, but when I do so and attempt to boot... it's not mounted as an upper and the error "failed to verify upper index dir xattr, try deleting index dir or mounting with "-o indexoff" to disable inodes index" [04:16] ... where is the "index dir" to delete so it will rebuild that? [04:42] Hey experts, how do I update to 22.04 via cli? do-release-upgrade says I have to change my upgrader to "normal" from lts [04:42] but both 20.04 (my current release) and 22.04 are LTS so it should work fine [04:43] ya you're early but you can force it now if you want to live on the edge [04:43] !upgrade [04:43] For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade [04:45] enigma9o7[m]: thanks! Looks like the issue is I can't upgrade until the first "point release" is available. [04:45] which is a bit confusing [04:46] 22.04 is "released" but you can't upgrade to it normally until there is a 22.04.1 [04:46] Hmmmm sorry for the confusion. [04:46] Correct. It's released for clean installs. [04:46] jaafar: as enigma9o7[m] said - one can force the upgrade early. [04:46] They want to work out all the issues before production LTS systems are offeredt he upgrade. [04:47] gotcha thanks enigma9o7[m] [04:47] You can upgrade now tho, if you're willing to deal with aything that doesnt work perfect. [04:47] i dont recall the command tho which you probably want... it has a `-d` in it I think ;) [04:48] apparently I just need to edit /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades [04:48] and say I am no longer on the lts bus [04:51] jaafar: No; changing the prompt from "LTS" will then attempt yo install the next release in line - 21.10. the comannds with prompt at "LTS": ' sudo apt update ; sudo apt upgrade ; sudo apt di-release-upgrade -d ' will bring 22.04 .

I need to rsync my files, but not chown -R ubuntu:ubuntu.. how can I get this to run as root without connecting as root via the ubuntu@... user? [06:24] use the --fake-super rsync option. <><> or add the following to your /etc/sudoers file: rsyncuser ALL= NOPASSWD:/usr/bin/rsync [06:26] o/ === diskin_ is now known as diskin [07:20] Greetings. [07:20] I installed ubuntu 20.04 in a vm but even after installing the relevant virtualbox dkms package the screen is not resizing [07:21] Did you install the virtualbox guest extensions inside the VM? And which graphics driver do you have in the VM settings? [07:25] alkisg: Oh, I was missing the virtualbox-guest-x11 package [07:26] 👍️ [07:26] Thanks. [07:26] Note that even without it, the guest properly fits the window on boot if you select vboxsvga [07:26] It won't automatically resize later on, but it can be resized with an xrandr command however you position the window [07:28] I just logged out and back in. [07:29] well, bbl! [08:03] upgraded to 22.04 on my Lenovo Thinkpad T480... I've set cpu frequency scaling in menu to "performance" [08:04] however while in teleconferencing with firefox + webrtc, the cpu frequency drops something as low as *200Mhz* :D [08:05] I've never even seen such a low frequency, before if the power dropped to 2 % or so I've seen 400Mhz to save battery in *powersave* setting... there is nothing related in dmesg either :( [08:06] ... it is a bit hard to do webrtc with 200mhz clock on cores, it processes only 100 ms of sound every second and so... === Hash is now known as stoned === Chunkyz is now known as jailbreak [08:31] So, I have a 2nd hdd. Presently its mounted as /media/driveb Should I mount it or alias it off the root directly /driveb ? [08:36] no, /media for manually mounted/inserted media, and use /mnt/ for mounted volumes in fstab [08:37] !mount [08:37] mount is used to attach devices to directories. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount [08:40] thanks, will look there. maybe I can re-locate it with Disks [09:10] Here, the new drive is installed as /media/newdrive https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingANewHardDrive [09:10] So I guess I must look in fstab to see how the existing drive is mounted, [09:12] Yes, main drive is / and new 2nd drive there is fstab as /media/driveb [09:13] I just wonder what the convention is, for a 2nd drive is a desktop, maybe it is /media/2ndrive [09:15] 2nd drive in a desktop .. === Sauvin is now known as Furor === sophie7 is now known as sophie [10:06] Just so I'm clear on things, firefox and chromium are the only packages that explicitly required snapd to be installed. Nothing else? [10:07] Guest5644: sounds like something you can check. [10:07] Guest5644: a few years ago, that'd be via apt-rdepends package. [10:07] I'm away from my linux machine right now sadly. [10:07] Hi, I need to install libusb-1.0-13 or higher, any help appreciated. [10:09] mrcoffee, why? it is not in our repos yet [10:09] https://launchpad.net/libusb/+packages [10:09] I am compiling an emultaro, virtual machine based on qemu and it asks for it.. [10:10] then build it yourself too? [10:10] Mmm, ok, so I have to compile from source libusb? [10:11] oerheks all the packages in the link you provided are libusb < 1.0.13 , did I read right? [10:11] Guest5644, well, there are close to 8000 packages in the snap store ... but the browsers and the software store app are the only ones that are pre-installed [10:12] That wasn't my question ogra. I was just confirming that only firefox and chromium have an explicit dependency on snapd, even if you installed the "deb" release. [10:12] mrcoffee, that is how i read that too, yes [10:13] Guest5644, well, you did not talk about debs ... yes, to make updates not break, firefox and chromium have trasitional deb packages [10:13] (i think lxd too, in case you use it) [10:38] oerheks what libusb would you go for: just 1.0.13 that is the minimum <= or the latest posible one? [10:39] Hi there, if one dependency states <= 0.1.13 would you go for the bare minimum 0.1.13 or the latest one? [10:41] i have no idea, what is this ' emultaro' ? [10:41] Emulator.. [10:41] Sorry I meant >= 1.0.13 [11:26] emultaro [12:05] Hi all [12:07] on focal I have a /media/user/foo that gets mounted "ro", I assume by gio or gvfs. how do you configure it to always mount "rw" ? [12:08] mncheck: disks program/fstab ? [12:09] what fs is it? any clues in dmesg why it's getting mounted ro? [12:33] EriC^, turns out ntfsfix on the unmounted block device was sufficient to restore rw mounting. [12:34] I'm curious, if I click on a device on the sidebar in Files (nautilus) and it gets mounted, how could you persistently store some mount options? say you wanted an FS with a given uuid always mount as "ro" when by default it mounts as rw? where is the configuration? [12:34] put that mount in fstab ? [12:34] !mount [12:34] mount is used to attach devices to directories. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount [12:34] oerheks, so gio expects options to be in the fstab? [12:34] so it gets mounted on /mnt/ as /media/ is for manually mounted devices [12:35] oerheks, there are options that depend on the username. for example in cifs, I think you cannot put the username=such-and-such option in the fstab correctly on a multiuser system [12:35] your issue was a dirty closed filesystem, that always get mounted as RO [12:35] if you unmount it properly, that would not happen again [12:35] mncheck, gio uses udisks2 to mount ... (not sure where it sets its defaults though) [12:35] oh gio [12:36] hi all, I just installed on my ubuntu 22.04 a sapphire rx 5500 xt mounts the latest drivers available. I am having a problem the memory frequency is fixed at 875 mhz and even after the frequency does not change, it remains fixed [12:36] oerheks, I consider my real issue to be not knowing where udisks2 gets its mount options though [12:38] " At start-up and when a drive is connected, udisksd(😎 will apply configuration stored in the file [12:38] /etc/udisks2/IDENTIFIER.conf where IDENTIFIER is the value of the Drive:Id property for the drive. [12:38] " [12:38] from "man udisks" [13:03] using Ubuntu 18.04.6 LTS [13:03] i am having an issue with my headset microphone (in msteams) [13:04] it is as if the volume is turned up to 1000, i.e., way way overdriven [13:04] it works at home, but not on this (my work) computer [13:04] both run 18.04.6 [13:05] i've poked around with it using pulse audio volume control to no avail [13:05] everythign seems set correctly [13:06] yates, lower down the output of the application, sometimes helps [13:06] isn't xxx4.6 dev? [13:07] oerheks: thanks - tried that - doesn't help [13:07] nope, disregard === atol71 is now known as atol [13:34] hi can i make qt6 app in ubuntu 16.03.3 [13:38] mmj: Ubuntu 16.04 is EOL. (there is no such thing as 16.03) [13:41] I am running live USB to access the 2nd drive (NTFS) of a computer where the other OS drive (windows) crapped out and I want to back up the data from the other drive. I have attached a portable SSD to copy data across but neither the portable SSD (NTFS) or the internal 2nd drive is allowing me to modify/paste files, I can copy files and read them [13:41] fine but cant write to either drive. Did I miss an option to enable this with the Live USB? [13:45] NTFS should be accessable, unless your portable ssd is RO [13:46] oerheks: you might have to chkdsk each of them twice to clear the "dirty" bit. You need to do this in Windows, twice [13:48] oerheks: what both drives seem to not be allowing me to move files to either of them. [13:49] Omen124: you might have to chkdsk each of them twice to clear the "dirty" bit. You need to do this in Windows, twice === atol71 is now known as atol [13:50] leftyfb; not sure if you meant to respond to me to nor and sent it to oerheks, I did a chkdsk in windows for the build in HDD and it was fine, yet it cant receive files. [13:51] Omen124: did you try nautilus in admin:/// mode too? [13:52] lotuspsychje; im fairly new to ubuntu (using it as a backup to access stuff). What is nautilus? What system is it on? [13:54] Omen124: nautilus is the filemanager on ubuntu desktop, i see you're on a liveusb, that might not work [13:57] I have checked the permissions of both of the drives and they have the ability to create and read enabled, so they aren't strictly in read mode. [13:58] *create and delete [13:58] Omen124: what error are you getting when you try to create a directory on one of the drives? [13:58] ogra, thank you [13:59] leftyfb: when right-clicking to create a new folder or paste, the options are greyed out [13:59] I can definitely create and delete files on the live USB drive but it doesn't seem I can on the other drives [14:01] Omen124, in my case I had to check if the "ro" or "rw" (for read-write) mount option was used, I used the command "findmnt -J" from the terminal application to check that [14:03] hi! from what i understand now ( and know of multi-user vs single user mode, I suppose and also what I read..) User-Mode-Linux is now in the kernel. How do I run it in Ubuntu? Anyone know, as I understand it, it is no longer a separate linux project [14:04] during install, you are in single-user-mode, when you boot the install, you are in multi-user-mode [14:04] so no need to activate anything [14:04] so there is no way to build User Mode Guests anymore? [14:04] transhumanist: that has nothing to do with single user mode [14:05] oh [14:05] transhumanist: that is a feature of the gnome desktop [14:05] well, I know its now part of the kernel, but damned if I can find anything current about it [14:06] it's not [14:06] guest mode != single user mode [14:06] ' build User Mode Guests' is confusing, if you want a guest mode, logout and login as guest? [14:06] ok good enough [14:07] I will try and find a UML channel and ask [14:07] transhumanist: what is UML? [14:07] mncheck: from what I can see, anything related to an NTFS drive is rw, but I may be mistaken. If you want to look, since I'm not 100% sure of what I'm looking at (https://pastebin.com/WJdmqzBZ) [14:08] User Mode Linux [14:08] runs linux as a process [14:09] god for single core applications , every device is emulated [14:09] but its much faster than full emulation [14:09] good* [14:09] seems its dead though [14:09] but its in the kernel tree from what I read [14:10] https://www.landley.net/code/UML.html [14:10] transhumanist: not sure what you're trying to use UML for, but maybe look into docker? [14:11] yeah ,been there already, but this did seem promising, some how it got absorbed into the kernel and disappeared [14:11] Omen124, /media/ubuntu/08361DD8361DC818 (sda1) /media/ubuntu/44A8329FA8328F82 (sdc2) are both "ro", meaning "read-only". I am guessing they are the ntfs drives. you could see if they are ntfs with the command "lsblk -f" I think [14:12] since 30th may, google stopped allowing users to send or recieve mail via some third party programs [14:12] and i try to send mail with ssmtp with cock.li mail provider [14:12] https://pastebin.com/raw/0UDV3ivu this is my ssmtp.conf [14:12] when i try to send mail, i get sendmail: 501 5.1.7 Bad sender address syntax [14:13] anyone know what that might be? [14:13] Omen124, in my case I fixed a similar problem with unmounting the drives and running "ntfsfix /dev/sdc2" and "ntfsfix /dev/sda1" (then mounting again). but what leftyfb said, to check each drive twice in windows with chkdsk , I guess is the correct way to fix it. From what you've said I read you did chkdsk only once on each drive? [14:13] mihaiadrian: I think thats my fault , I found a bug in application authentication with 2FA [14:13] so they shut it off [14:14] lwl xd [14:14] mihaiadrian, contact google/gmail .. as your laptop with antix/debian does the same? [14:14] well, google no longer allows it [14:14] https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/6010255?hl=en [14:14] yes, but you found out is is not an OS problem, bu your mail client [14:14] I dont really know what they expect people to do with out it, if its the same issue [14:15] mncheck: I did chkdsk a couple of times on one of them (the internal drive I'm trying to backup) but the external one I haven't done it on. Either way, I should at least be able to paste/make a new folder in the internal drive [14:15] they never paid me the bounty, that's all I know [14:15] or Omen124 does it work when you use sudo? [14:15] mihaiadrian: ssmtp probably isn't going to work with google anymore. Contact google for support [14:15] sudo touch [14:15] Omen124, I guess so... you might try ntfsfix as I said earlier if you haven't tried already [14:16] leftyfb: i dont want to contact google, i want to setup cock.li, but idk why it doesnt work [14:16] mihaiadrian: contact cock.li for support [14:16] Omen124, also I faintly remember hybernating a windows >= 8 or something can put the ntfs into some windows-internal state I think... [14:16] oerheks: touch: cannot touch 'videos': Read-only file system [14:17] Omen124, until the mount option is "ro" for your drive it is futile to "touch" or "mkdir" etc. [14:17] "rw" [14:18] and did you touch your live usb, or the external ssd? [14:18] Omen124, let me know if you gave "ntfsfix /dev/sda1" etc. a try [14:18] do not do that [14:18] leftyfb, why is that? [14:18] Omen124: you need to unmount the drive(s) first [14:19] leftyfb, I think ntfsfix will refuse to work on mounted drives [14:19] lets not take the chance of making things worse [14:19] might mistake it with fsck though... [14:20] leftyfb, so "umount /dev/sda1 && ntfsfix /dev/sda1" would be your command? [14:20] oerheks: I can touch the default folders of this live USB ubuntu setup, seems fine there. [14:20] mncheck: sudo umount /media/ubuntu/08361DD8361DC818 [14:20] for sda1 [14:21] Omen124: that has nothing to do with your ntfs drives [14:21] can i unmount it via GParted to make sure I an unmounting the right drive? [14:21] Omen124, I'm pretty sure too that until you get that "ro" into becoming "rw" for the /media/ubuntu/ drives, anything else is not really relevant [14:22] Omen124, gparted sounds good to me [14:22] Omen124: I HIGHLY recommend booting into a Windows installer usb and running chkdsk on both those drives, twice. [14:23] I will try but I am likely to get a BSOD within 30 sec of hitting the desktop [14:23] Omen124: windows installer usb [14:24] alright, gonna make this USB before unmounting [14:24] Omen124: also, if you had "fast boot" enabled on 1 or both of those drives, that could be preventing them from being mounted rw or even running checks on them. You'll have to seek support from Microsoft or #windows to determine that [14:26] leftyfb, just tested ntfsfix with v2017.3.23AR.3, "mount /dev/foo5 /mnt && ntfsfix /dev/foo5" says "Refusing to operate on read-write mounted device /dev/foo5." on focal [14:26] with fast boot enabled he could not boot the live iso, i guess [14:26] I'm pretty sure fast boot only affects the Windows OS [14:27] but I could be wron [14:27] wrong* [14:28] Omen124, I guess that thing I babbled about hibernate was actually fast boot probably [14:28] yeah oerheks that could be because you have to start the windows machine and shut it down properly holding the shift key on shutdown [14:29] there is a way, i forget though how to get linux to fix it, but it can cause loss [14:31] currently downloading a windows 11 iso to be able to make a live windows USB, not sure how I am going to do this via ubuntu, any recommendations?

[14:50] ogra: yeah, I was too broad with "ubuntu how to delete files" the first one was only GUI :) [14:50] heh [14:51] ah yeah, there's of course also the 'easy' way [14:52] which would work fine no? [14:53] SleepyMario: it's a VPS for running an eggdrop, I really hope they aren't running a DE on it [14:55] Hi, is there a simple SMTP server to run on Ubuntu? This is in a lab environment not connected to the internet, just need something to accept the emails, don't care if it all goes to /dev/null [14:56] ELFrederich: if you're just sending it to /dev/null, why do you need to "accept" emails? [14:56] leftyfb, because some application doesn't work if it doesn't think it's sending e-mails. [14:57] ELFrederich: maybe ssmtp [14:57] Okay... Thanks, I'll look at that one.

[15:16] shaner, /join #launchpad [15:16] thanks ogra [15:34] Omen124: echo -n 'This system booted via: '; [ -d /sys/firmware/efi ] && echo UEFI || echo BIOS [15:35] Cool that worked [15:43] Omen124: regarding creating a bootable windows iso on ubuntu: apparently you can't just use dd or cp, also woeusb is now a dead project, with two replacements, woeusb-ng and woeusb2, i think. and i'm not aware of any official instructions by microsoft to create a bootable installer medium on other operating systems than their own. [15:44] Omen124: if you're booting it in uefi mode you can create it yourself using a fat32 partition and copying over the iso contents to it [15:44] i have spun up windows vms in the past [15:45] only for the purpose of creating a bootable USB. it works fine, but obviously is a bit convoluted [15:47] EriC^: Currently copying files across but after checking the transfer the file sizes are different after [15:48] might be due actual space vs apparent space Omen124 [15:48] try an md5 check on a few to see if they're the same [15:50] Not sure how to me5 check the drive vs the iso contents as a whole [15:50] md5 === vxwarlock is now known as vx_numberone [15:52] Omen124: md5, you mean sha256 or sha512 right? [15:53] wez: No idea, just repeating what EriC^ said [15:56] Omen124: it's probably the same, take a file that has different sizes and run 'md5sum /path/to/file' on both ones to see if they're the same === brentaarnold_ is now known as brentaarnold [17:11] hi, under ifconfig, I have lots of br-xxxxxxx, what is that for? [17:12] https://termbin.com/sdon [17:12] br bridge? [17:13] and veth virtual Ethernet devices. [17:13] oh, br stands for bridge.. but who actually set that up? the OS? [17:13] docker probably [17:14] don't use ifconfig, use ip. which ubuntu release is this? [17:14] Linux home 5.0.0-38-generic #41-Ubuntu SMP Tue Dec 3 00:27:35 UTC 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux [17:15] that's a kernel version, and a very outdated one. [17:15] oh but its 2019? [17:15] i didnt know ubuntu ever even used that [17:15] not on my calendar [17:16] I do have the following: New release '20.04.4 LTS' available. [17:16] Run 'do-release-upgrade' to upgrade to it. [17:16] but I am not sure if it will screw things up [17:16] lsb_release -ds should tell you which ubuntu release this is, or tries to be. [17:17] Ubuntu 19.04 [17:17] Just go upgrading; if you do not have a backup of important data, your data is not important. [17:17] !19.04 [17:17] Ubuntu 19.04 (Disco Dingo) was the 30th release of Ubuntu, support ended January 23rd, 2020. See !eol and https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-security-announce/2020-January/005263.html [17:17] oh gosh, its eol [17:18] you knew that, as it shows while you update.. [17:18] ok, maybe being 19.04 explains why I have error installing the nic driver then [17:19] Your Ubuntu release is not supported anymore. [17:19] For upgrade information, please visit: [17:19] http://www.ubuntu.com/releaseendoflife [17:19] yeah I saw this [17:20] anyway, thanks for the help. will upgrade the version. [17:41] Hello I have an Ubuntu Server 22.04 (Rasperry PI) ... I am trying to configure it to use specific DNS servers and *ignore* the one that the IPv6 router is announcing through IPv6 ra. [17:42] I *must* anyway have systemd-networld listen to IPv6 ra since I must have an IPv6 assigned [17:43] Furna_: maybe this: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1406827/how-to-set-dns-on-ubuntu-22-04-when-you-have-no-netplan-config [17:43] Is there a way to do that in netplan? I know ra can be ignored all-togheter ... anyway as I wrote I cannoyt afford to completely ignore ra [17:43] mmm [17:44] yes, you can force ipv6, see the examples [17:44] https://netplan.io/examples/ [17:44] and force ipv4 [17:45] dhcp4: true [17:46] matsaman I am aware of snipsets in /etc/systemd/resolved.conf.d/ ... already tried and no matter what as soon as there is an IPv6 ra from the router resolved honours it an start using the DNS avertised by the ra [17:49] oerheks I am not using DHCP ... the goal is to ignore DNS server announced in IPv6 ra [17:53] i.e. NetworkManager has "ignore-auto-dns" ... with that I have IPv6 address(es) from router advertisement but DNS is ignored [18:06] Furna_: why are you using NetworkManager on Ubuntu server? [18:07] leftyfb I am not using it on Ubuntu Server .. I am using it on my Desktop ... [18:08] oerheks: just tried "dhcp6-overrides: use dns: false" ... as expected it is not working ... that DNS arrives via router advertisment not via DHCP [18:09] leftyfb: anywai I am start thinking to use it to achieve my goal ;-) I would really avoid it if possible [18:55] Seems I am not the only one with this issue ... https://serverfault.com/questions/1050807/dont-accept-rdnss-from-router-announcements-in-linux ... interesting the comment in the answer [18:55] In Ubuntu's case, it's managed with netplan. When testing it, I was unable to use SLAAC without RDNSS. === Furna_ is now known as Furna [19:08] Hi! [19:10] My Intel Wireless AC 9560 is not working. I am new to Linux and I do not know exactly how to identify the exact problem. [19:10] But when I execute "sudo modprobe iwlwifi" I do not get any response [19:11] Do you know how I can identify the problem further? [19:12] muffin: unix programs generally say nothing when they succeed [19:12] muffin: but in the case of modprobe, that just means the module loaded, not anything about what the module *does* [19:12] muffin: those messages, if any, are printed to the kernel message buffer -- view it with dmesg or systemctl -e [19:12] sigh not systemctl -e [19:13] journalctl -e [19:13] the -e just limits it to the last thousand messages or something, and it's the entire journal, not just the kernel message buffer [19:13] but -e is fast :) [19:14] Oh, I see, so the problem is not, that the module is not loaded [19:14] yeah; check with lsmod | grep iwlwifi [19:14] hopefully there'll be something in the logs that says what's up, but it's hard to say what exactly to look for [19:18] I booted from the ubuntu 22.04 live usb but that also said "No Wi-Fi Adapter Found" === rcastillo_ is now known as rcastillo [19:19] Do you know how I can rule out a hardware problem? [19:22] muffin: hrm :( I have very limited experience with wifi troubleshooting; the thing that cost me the most time in the past was one of the killswitches on the hardware.. [19:23] muffin: look around the keyboard for an icon that suggests turning wifi on and off, or the radios.. or an airplane mode.. [19:23] muffin: running 'rfkill' will print out a bit of informatoin on the kill switch states, both hardware and software [19:25] rfkill does not output anything [19:26] that's not promising :( [19:28] I will try to learn as much as I can about how ubuntu does networking and identify where exactly the problem is. [19:29] muffin: it'd be worth getting to know the arch wiki, those guys have the best docs on nearly everything [19:29] muffin: looking for your wireless card on their wiki is probably a pretty good starting point [19:33] muffin: "lsusb" and "lspci -knn" outputs may help diagnose this further. [19:34] this should also tell you more about the very wireless chipset you have [19:36] hmm.. I don't see anything wireless on lspci~ that probably means it is a hardware problem? [19:37] muffin: do you see anything that says intel and network, though? [19:38] no network, only ethernet [19:38] maybe it's hooked up over usb internally, check also lsusb or maybe lshw [19:39] muffin: and oyou're running 22.04 on the live image now? [19:39] I am running a 22.04 install now [19:40] the card is a M.2 card I inserted myself [19:40] okay that's an interesting twist [19:40] check the bios setup, maybe you have to do something to enable the slot [19:41] and google around a bit, maybe the vendor has hardware locked it to only accept their specific devices [19:42] yeah, I am going to look around in my bios a bit more and maybe plug and unplug the card once more. Thank you for your help! [22:07] I am not sure what I am doing wrong. I formatted my 6TB hard drive on my ubuntu desktop machine as 22.04 and I was able to mount the drive and put the data on it that I wanted. I moved it to my server adding it to the fstab as ext4 but I keep getting "mount: /mnt/Storage: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb1, missing codepage or helper program, or other error." When I run "sudo lsblk --fs" it does show as ext4 on the ub [22:07] untu server os. Any idea what I might be doing wrong? [22:10] what does your fstab entry look like [22:10] tacomaster: What exactly did you put in your fstab? Ideally, upload it to a pastebin and then paste the link here. [22:11] Ha I am an idiot. I put default instead of defaults in the fstab entry . Sorry to bug you guys [22:11] tacomaster: No problem, glad you got it sorted out! === Furna is now known as Furna_ === brentaarnold_ is now known as brentaarnold === brentaarnold_ is now known as brentaarnold === brentaarnold_ is now known as brentaarnold [23:26] EriC^: You still use md5?
