jadenliani have this mp3 player that i connect to my pc and its like nothing it being connected to it01:43
jadenlianim trying to see how i can access it to eather erase everything or listen whats on it01:44
=== five618 is now known as five61
enigma9o7[m]Well, usually those are just "mass storage mode" which when you plug in appears similar to a usb flash drive and usually fat32 formatted.... and sometimes they use MTP like a smartphone02:01
enigma9o7[m]sometimes you have to set something on the device itself to file transfer or MTP mode, otherwise it just charges02:02
enigma9o7[m](as a security feature so if you plug into some random port to charge, they cant see your files)02:02
enigma9o7[m]What happens when you plug it into your pc, jadenlian?02:03
jadenlianenigma9o7[m]:nothing doesnt show anything02:12
enigma9o7[m]and hav eyou looked thru the deivce menus, make sure you dont have to enable transfer mode?  with phones you have to do that every single time you plug in as security, and some mp3 players the same02:12
enigma9o7[m]`fdisk -l` to see if its listed02:14
jadenlianits an mp3 player my cousin brought back from a county and he said that they had to plug it in pc there every 14 days to revalidate and when he got here and the timer ran out when i turn it on it only says to plug it in the pc \02:14
enigma9o7[m]If its there under fdisk -l, you can try to mount it.  If you dont understand what you see, share it on a pastebin....02:16
jadenlianill use pastebin give me a sec02:17
enigma9o7[m]i mean `sudo fdisk -l`02:17
enigma9o7[m]and letter l, not number one02:18
jadenliani used termbin02:20
jadenlianhttps://termbin.com/zj1702:20
enigma9o7[m]i dont see it there.  all those loop devices i believe are cuz of snap.  and your only real drive is your real drive. hmmmm bummer.02:22
oerheksis that thing properly charged?02:23
jadenlianits charging from the pc right now and its alredy fully charged\02:24
jadenliani actually opened the other day to get any memory  card and it has one but its on purposely soldered to the mp3 player02:26
jadenlianso i guess something in that memory prevents the mp3 from being detected02:27
oerheksor a simple usb2/usb3(blue) thingy ?02:28
oerheksuse a black port.02:28
jadenlianwhats a black port02:29
oerhekselse, yes it is toast, if it does not play by itself too.02:29
oerheksusb2 = black, plastic inside02:29
jadenlianif the memory plastic is black or blue?02:30
jadenlianwhen i try to access one of the option on the mp3 it says  "please connect to kios for authorize use"02:32
jadenlianbut its working02:32
jadenlianits just that the pc doesnt detect it02:32
enigma9o7[m]seems its got some fancy bios that doesnt allow direct access to storage.  WIthout hardware hacking, you won't get much further.02:37
jadenlianso just give it up or where can i get something to make it behave02:40
arraybolt3[m]jadenlian: If it just has a soldered memory card, I'd take a chance with a soldering iron and see if I could get the thing off. If you're lucky, it'll just be a FAT32 or similar file system with a bunch of MP3s plopped on it, maybe with a bit of folder organization. If you're unlucky, it'll have a proprietary file system, hardware format, or DRM protection at which point you're pretty much sunk. Also, this may damage the data on the card02:41
arraybolt3[m]if it is proprietary but looks like a common card.02:41
arraybolt3[m](For instance, if it looks like an SD card but the contacts are switched around, plugging it into your system might end up wiring the Power lines of the system to the Data lines of the card which could caused problems.)02:42
arraybolt3[m]jadenlian: Does it store user files, or is it preloaded with a bunch of music that the user has to pay a subscription to retain access to or something?02:46
jadenliani find a way to get the memory card of the body of the mp3 and then ill plug the mp3 with no card on an old pc to see what happens02:46
jadenlianmusic files02:46
arraybolt3[m]If it holds data that the user legally owns, I would suspect that DRM protection probably isn't there.02:47
arraybolt3[m](Er, legally has a perpetual license to, if you want to get technical.)02:47
jadenlianhe said when he gets it brand new   when you turn it on the first thing you see is your name and then the mp3 options for music video and that stuff but its empty you have to  buy each individual songs for 1.6 each02:48
EickmeyerSkimmed the story here. IMO, he got scammed.02:49
arraybolt3[m]jadenlian: Oh. That would make sense of why you're having a hard time getting data off of it - it's probably designed to keep users from copying the songs and redistributing them. In that case you really might hit a DRM roadblock, which pretty much leaves you in the lurch legally, and possibly technically too.02:50
arraybolt3[m]Buy a song, and then you have to validate every 14 days? That's just weird.02:50
jadenlianas soon as buy to keep using it every 14 days it locks up and you have to connect it to their pc02:51
EickmeyerProbably 100% incompatible with Ubuntu, and, therefore, off-topic here, I hate to say.02:51
arraybolt3[m](FWIW, you could skip getting into the MP3 player entirely, install an adblocker into Firefox, and then just use YouTube. Bam, music and videos, for free, no ads, no wonky MP3 player to hack, and no soldering involved.)02:51
jadenlianok bye bye over (2000 songs * 1.6) youtube it is02:53
arraybolt3[m]Maybe also see if he can get his money back for the useless MP3 player.02:55

EickmeyerGuest44: if it's outside of the official Ubuntu repos, it's not supported here.02:58
Guest44where to ask?02:58
EickmeyerYou'd have to ask nvidia.02:58
Guest44not on irc02:59
EickmeyerThey have forums.02:59

Guest44my bad02:59
enigma9o7[m]sudo apt install nvidia-cuda-dev03:00
enigma9o7[m]It is in ubuntu.03:00
EickmeyerYeah, I was about to answer that, but he posted a link to the Nvidia repo, enigma9o7[m].03:00
EickmeyerGuest44: You want nvidia-cuda-dev03:01
Guest44nvidia-cuda-toolkit ?03:01
Guest44no?03:01
EickmeyerNo.03:01
oerheksit is easier to use the deb method from that guide.03:01

Guest44any03:02
EickmeyerNo idea.03:02
EickmeyerHowever, it does not contain the file you're looking for.03:02
Eickmeyerapt-file search libcudart.so came back with nvidia-cuda-dev.03:02
enigma9o7[m]thats the nvcc compiler.  you can get info by "apt show nvidia-cuda-toolkit"03:03

Guest44ok03:06
Guest44thanks03:08
enigma9o7[m]did that package solve your problem?  cuz unless you're running appimages, you really shouldn't have missing "so" files, they should be installed automatically as dependency of whatever needed it....03:10

oerheksmore is better, sa 50 gb for root, and the rest for home? swap can use a swapfile, instead of partition03:43

arraybolt3[m]Where would someone find old, EOL versions of Kubuntu? I know that EOL Ubuntu releases can be found at the old releases website, but for some reason it seems that Kubuntu releases just vanish into the void once they go EOL.

I am fully aware of the dangers of04:24

R4v3nHello guys. Is there any udev/usbhid guru here ? I got some udev rules to limit usb devices (keyboard, mouse & mass storage), yesterday I updated from 5.13.0[...]-48 to -51, and now my keyboard & mouse aren't detected as usbhid devices until I unplug & replug them. Booting under -48 isn't better08:48
R4v3nIf somebody got an idea, thanks a lot08:49
tomreynand ... you're not planning on sharing "some rules"?08:52
tomreynxMopx: try #netplan (and reading their changelogs)08:55
R4v3ntomreyn, oh sorry, I forget to tell the most interesting. Rules are ok, the problem seems to be on the usbhid driver or something like this. When I boot, I log in with a PS/2 keyboard (while my usb keyboard & mouse are plugged), I lsusb -t and I can see both keyboard & mouse are detected BUT not identified with the DRIVER=usbhid. If I unplug & replug them, then lsusb -t shows the usbhid driver and they are working08:55
tomreyndoes journalctl have any clue on why these devices are not claimed by usbhid during boot then?08:58
R4v3nI'll check. I'm not very friend with journalctl :) But I'll check right now08:59
Guest9795Hello09:13
R4v3ntomreyn, ok so, in logs I can see my devices aren't authorized (since the kernel update). So I disabled my udev rules file to try without any limitation, and keyboard & mouse are still not working, still don't get the "Driver=usbhid" in lsusb -t, until I unplug & replug them09:13

blombergwhy sudo do-release-upgrade upgrades to 20.04LTS not 22.04LTS15:20
ravageyou can't directly upgrade from 1815:21
ravage04 to 22.0415:21
blombergso i have to upgrade again..? from 18 lol15:21
ravageyou don't have to yet15:22
ravage20.04 is still supported15:22
blombergso it 1815:22
oerheksno, because 20.04.1 is not out yet, you will need to use the -d option15:22

Maik!ltsupgrades | blomberg15:25
Maikhmmm...15:25
Maik!ltsupgrade15:26
ubottuRegular upgrades from the last but one LTS release to the latest LTS release, 22.04 "Jammy Jellyfish", are enabled days or weeks after 22.04.1 is released. This delay helps to ensure that any lingering issues are resolved before people upgrade production systems. If you'd prefer to upgrade now, use sudo do-release-upgrade -d15:26
blombergwhy is 22 LTS not available on do-release-upgrade?? when it's there on the site15:26

ravagenot 22.04.015:29
Maiknot true, 22.04.1 is just a point realease15:29
Maikwhich will be out in August15:30
ravageI was told otherwise by 2 people15:30
Maikby whom?15:30
ravagepretty sure one was sarnold. don't remember the second15:30
Maikravage: if you have 22.04 LTS installed and keep it up to date it will get to the point releases automatically, no need to re-install15:31
blombergso point releases happen every month15:31
Maikblomberg: no15:31
ravagei never said i want or need to reinstall15:32
Maikblomberg: search for the release schedule and you'll know15:32
Maikravage: 22.04 IS a LTS release.15:33
ravagewell. I'm too lazy to look up logs from months ago15:33
ravagelet's just drop it15:33
Maikno problem15:34
ravageit was my understanding too15:34
ravagei was just told otherwise15:34

blombergif -d is lts then why it's called development15:38
blombergok its' point release?15:39
blombergso i have to upgrade twice once to lts and then to point release? i am a bit confused15:39
jhutchinsOooh the pain!15:40
tomreynblomberg: the -d / development part refers to the fact that the LTS upgrade path has not been 'released' yet. and once you're on 22.04.*, upgradign to a point release is as easy as running sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade15:42
blombergok i can -d safely then15:44

KBartomreyn: aren't you just gradually updating your system to reach the point-release status? once you're on an lts release, you just need to keep updating your system, and it will reach .{1..6} seamlessly. the first one is just for people wanting to upgrade to the new lts from the older release15:47
blombergapt upgrade upgrades to a point release but it gets release only every 4-5months ? so the system packages update every 4-5months? it's that slow? i like not having updates though - annoying15:47
ravagea point release will mostly update the ISO files. if you just update your packages you get to the state of the point release gradually15:49
KBarblomberg: no. read my reply above. and this: https://ubuntu.com/about/release-cycle15:49
KBar^ what ravage says15:50
tomreynKBar: you're right, too, no need to *full-*upgrade15:50
tomreyn(i explained this part incorrectly)15:51
KBarblomberg: new lts is released. users on older releases cant upgrade to it yet for variety of reasons. only new installations are allowed. the moment the first point release comes out, upgrades from older releases become allowed.15:51
KBarblomberg: but those who installed the new lts right from the start will get to the point release by gradually updating (aka sudo apt upgate && sudo apt upgrade) their system every day or whatever15:52
KBarravage's explanation is on point. also there was a wiki article explaining this but i cant seem to find it15:52
KBarblomberg: so if you're on 20.04 now, you will be able to upgrade to 22.04.1 in august in one big upgrade. no need for two upgrades (i.e. 20.04 > 22.04 > 22.04.1) as you seem to have misunderstood. you skip the middle part because you're not allowed to upgrade just yet15:54
blombergahh15:57
blombergafter august if i had 18.04 can i directly go to 22.04 upon sudo do-release-upgrade?16:00
blombergif not i'd have just preferred to download the iso 22.0416:00
blombergi thought i would go from 18 to 22 , but today i was unhappy that i got 20.0416:01
ThinkT510I don't think you can skip LTS releases16:01
ravageyou have to upgrade from 18 to 20 and the  to 2216:05

jchittuma point release of the server ISO will container packages updated at that point, as well as the rolled kernel hwe kernel16:47
jchittumfor when: https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/jammy-jellyfish-release-schedule/2390616:47
jchittumpoint release of 22.04 is currently scheduled for August16:47
jchittumfor do-release-upgrade, you can move from 20.04 to 21.10 now if you choose. you have to set /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades : Prompt=normal16:48
murmeljchittum: pretty sure the server ISO _doesn't_ include the hwe kernel16:48
oerheksyour update manager will notify you..16:48
jchittumYou can install the hwe kernel if you choose to16:48
jchittumand that's when it will roll to the newer kernel version16:49
murmeljchittum: sure but you were talking about included hwe kernel, which is not the case16:49
enigma9o7[m]hwe kernel updates every 6 months when the non lts releases come out16:49
oerheksonly fresh installs 22.04 when 22.04.1 comes out, get HWE standard enabled.16:49
jchittumenigma9o7: that is highly dependent16:50
murmelyes, and if I remember correctly, only desktop, not server, + it starts with .2 not .1. (the last part not 100% sure)16:50
enigma9o7[m]dependant?16:50
enigma9o7[m]ent?16:50
murmeloerheks: also server oO?16:50
enigma9o7[m]What does that mean sorry?16:50
oerheksserver, not sure,..16:50
jchittumdependent on many factors16:51
jchittumwe _have_ rolled cloud kernels before, in very specific cases, for enablement reasons16:51
jchittumand various OEM kernels will move at slightly different rates / versions16:51
murmeljchittum: sure, I was still talking about server iso and by default install, not some "random" cloud image or the like16:52
enigma9o7[m]Hmmmm ok.  So you're saying hte hwe kernel is not always the same as the one from the non-lts releases?16:52
jchittummurmel: please don't say "random" with cloud images16:52
jchittumthe images published by Canonical to the clouds are _official_ and follow the same SRU rules, etc.16:53
jchittumusing Ubuntu in the clouds is like having a rolling Ubuntu Server version. they are not random (as long as you stick to things published by Canonical)16:53
enigma9o7[m]I have seen oem kernel available thats often newer than hwe kernel...16:53
murmeljchittum: I guess i just move on16:54
jchittumenigma9o7: right. Canonical helps make a lot of different kernel flavors. and most try to follow the same cadence (releasing shortly after the release of the next Ubuntu version). But various considerations can move schedules a bit16:54
jchittumusually it's further back16:54
murmeljchittum: as you seem to almost try to misunderstand me, I will move on as said above16:56
jchittumfor `do-release-upgrade`, right now if you use `do-release-upgrade -d` on a 20.04 machine, it will install to 22.0416:58

tomreyni could not tell that, but i can tell that your system is configured to use to name servers side by side, preferring whichever it feels like18:39
tomreynso if you want all requests to go to 192.168.29.200 and none to 192.168.1.1 then you should not allow the latter to be configured18:40

tonisaromtomreyn: so in this case I need to manually set the DNS server on my Laptop rather than allow it to get the DNS server from the router?18:42
tomreynif it gets incorrect data via dhcp, then you'll want to override that18:43
tomreynin network manager, for this wireless connection, you can configure the dns server to use18:43

tomreynbut start by just trying to fix the router, and have a fixed resolver set on the wlp3s0 connection profile18:45
tonisaromok, then I will look into those two options. I wanted to have the laptop get the value directly from the router so I wouldn't need to change the IP address in both my router and laptop, but oh well.18:45

oerhekstomreyn +1 ppa-purge would revert those19:50
manwhowouldbekintomreyn, I am doing the cleanup we discusses a few days ago! Thanks, again :-)19:51
tomreynthe one which involves clearing out the list produced by    apt list --installed | grep ',local\]$'     #?19:52
manwhowouldbekintomreyn, Correct.19:53
tomreynnice19:53
manwhowouldbekinoerheks, What about a status like this https://termbin.com/4ul0 from 'sudo apt policy php8.1-xmlrpc'. Does it give a valid Ubuntu PPA substitute?20:02
=== Etua1 is now known as Etua
murmelmanwhowouldbekin: as you can read, apt even gives you the ubuntu archive version20:03
manwhowouldbekinmurmel, Running 'sudo apt install php8.1-xmlrpc=3:1.0.0~rc3-2' does not succeed. Hence, my question.20:05
manwhowouldbekinmurmel, Nevermind. It succeeded now.20:07
=== Guest4780 is now known as DD3my
manwhowouldbekinCould someone tell me why reinstalling this package from Ubuntu's PPA makes the system want to remove a whole lot of needed packages? How can I avoid this? https://pastebin.com/A6GCVTYN20:29
eelstreboranyone else having trouble with both thunderbird and firefox crashing? first it was just firefox but now both are crashing at random times20:29
manwhowouldbekineelstrebor, Seem to work well for me on Ubuntu 22.04 and most recent updates.20:31
eelstrebori'm on ubuntu 20.0420:31
tomreynmanwhowouldbekin: you're not reinstalling the same version, but donwgrading (from the sury version to the ubuntu one, which should be fine).  why are you saying these packages which are listed as no longer required (and could be removed with 'autoremove') are 'needed'?20:39
manwhowouldbekintomreyn, For instance, I am definitely planning to use 'sagemath' and need it for sure.20:40
manwhowouldbekintomreyn, Same for jupyter notebook.20:40
tomreynmanwhowouldbekin: list the *main* packages you wish to keep as additional arguments on the apt install (downgrade) command20:41
tomreynstart with just one and see how the output changes20:42
tomreynand optionally add -V to see which versions this is about (to get a better idea of whether these can just be incompatible package versions)20:43
manwhowouldbekintomreyn, Could you give an example of this command? I am not sure I follow. 'sudo apt install libpcre16-3=2:8.39-13ubuntu0.22.04.1 sagemath'?20:45
tomreynmanwhowouldbekin: exactly20:45
tomreynmaybe also check whet sagemath is the right version with    apt policy sagemath20:46
tomreynif it's not the ubuntu version but you wan tth eubuntu version, you specify its version as well with another =...20:46
tomreynas in 'sudo apt install libpcre16-3=2:8.39-13ubuntu0.22.04.1 sagemath=thatversionthatsinyourubunturelease'20:47
manwhowouldbekintomreyn, Sagemath is Ubuntu version.20:47
tomreynso just specify the package name20:48
tomreynsudo apt install libpcre16-3=2:8.39-13ubuntu0.22.04.1 sagemath20:48
manwhowouldbekinHere is the output of 'sudo apt install libpcre16-3=2:8.39-13ubuntu0.22.04.1 sagemath' https://termbin.com/mxvx20:49
tomreynadd libpcre3-dev=2:8.39-13ubuntu0.22.04.1    (or whatever is the ubuntu version of this package)20:51
tomreynor you could use ppa-remove against the sury ppa20:52
tomreyni mean ppapurge, sorry20:52
tomreyn!ppa-purge20:52
ubottuTo disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory> » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html20:52
manwhowouldbekintomreyn, Didn't I try that last time?20:52
tomreyni do not know / remember20:52
tomreyni've had mixed results with it20:53
tomreynbut if it works it can make things much easier20:53
manwhowouldbekintomreyn, I am reluctant to purge the PPA automatically now since apt is trying to remove much needed packages. Manual way might be more reliable :/20:54
manwhowouldbekintomreyn, When I try to install that package via 'sudo apt install libpcre3-dev=2:8.39-13ubuntu0.22.04.1' this happens: https://termbin.com/2cjj20:55
enigma9o7[m]remove that ppa20:56
enigma9o7[m]manually jus tdelete the list file20:57
enigma9o7[m]then run update20:57
enigma9o7[m]at least then apt policy wouldn't have installation candidates from place you're tryiing to remove stuff from20:57
tomreynmanwhowouldbekin: you need to find small groups of packages with close relationship, such as all the wrongly versioned pcre packages, and install / downgrade them to their ubuntu target version at the same time20:58
tomreyni also usually do what enigma9o7[m] just explained20:59
manwhowouldbekintomreyn, Just nuke the whole PPA? What are the risks for that? Might I lose some "needed" packages?21:00
tomreynwhy would there be any needed packages in there?21:00
tomreynfirst just remove (or comment out) the ppa apt source and then    sudo apt update    and then know which packages need to be worked on because they'll be 'conveniently' listed on the    apt list --installed | grep ',local\]$'    output21:02
enigma9o7[m]remove the ppa so that means you can't install from it anymore.  but stuff you already installed is still okay and cached.21:03
enigma9o7[m]but at least then your apt errors wont be because its trying to install from that ppa anymore, you'll have other issues instead to deal with ;)21:04
enigma9o7[m]but my understanding is you didnt want to install anything more from there, and ideally revert anything you already installed from there to ubuntu official versions.  so thats fine.21:05
manwhowouldbekinenigma9o7[m], Thanks! I am looking at "ls -lha /etc/apt/sources.list.d/" and the .list file is not there for this sury.org PPA.21:06
enigma9o7[m]Then check your main source.list file21:06
enigma9o7[m]iit has to be one of those places, either in main source.list or something in source.list.d21:06
oerheksif one used the ppa-purge function, it is removed indeed21:07
oerheksreboot?21:07
oerheks( as it might be in cache)21:07
tomreyn"apt update" updates this cache21:08
tomreynmanwhowouldbekin: so run "sudo apt update && apt policy"  nd check whether the output there still lists the sury php ppa21:10
manwhowouldbekinenigma9o7[m], I do not see it in either place. Unless it is under some other name. I am looking for something like *sury*21:11
manwhowouldbekintomreyn, It is not there.21:12
oerheksif you are not sure, pastebin the output of apt update?21:12
enigma9o7[m]Well just check the actual files in source.list.d21:12
enigma9o7[m]i mean how many are there, how many ppas do you have?21:12
enigma9o7[m]there shouldnt be too many to check unless you've gone ppa crazy anyway21:12
manwhowouldbekinenigma9o7[m], About 20-30 or so.21:13
enigma9o7[m]or you could cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* | grep sury21:13
enigma9o7[m]that might work21:13
enigma9o7[m]if you dont wanna look manually21:13
enigma9o7[m]Great Scott!21:13
manwhowouldbekinoerheks, Here is the ouput https://termbin.com/ci8321:14
enigma9o7[m]I'm sure there are fancy commands you can use to search all the files and let yo know which one contains it... i realized my cat/grep combo wont tell you which file it came from, but it will prove its there (or not)21:14
tomreynsudo grep -hEv '^([ ]*#.*)?$' /etc/apt/sources.list{,.d/*.list} |& nc termbin.com 999921:15
oerhekspinned packages.. why?21:15
oerheksapt update would show how many can be updated, and held back21:16
manwhowouldbekinoerheks, No idea about pinned packages. Not even sure what that means.21:16
oerhekssomehow you freezed those packages, it is called pinning21:17
oerheks!pinning21:17
ubottupinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto21:17
manwhowouldbekinoerheks, The output you see is of 'sudo apt update && apt policy'21:17
tomreyni think this is probably just the default-release pin21:18
manwhowouldbekintomreyn, Output of your command https://termbin.com/vad621:18
tomreyndo you have files in /etc/apt/preferences.d/ ?21:19
tomreyndo you have /etc/apt/preferences ?21:19
manwhowouldbekintomreyn, No.21:21
tomreynthe remaining apt repositories look like they could work21:21
tomreyni guess you can just continue from where you left off21:21
manwhowouldbekintomreyn, Doing it manually package-by-package?21:21
tomreynsudo apt install libpcre16-3=2:8.39-13ubuntu0.22.04.121:21
tomreynoptionally adding "sagemath"21:22
tomreyn<tomreyn> manwhowouldbekin: you need to find small groups of packages with close relationship, such as all the wrongly versioned pcre packages, and install / downgrade them to their ubuntu target version at the same time21:22
manwhowouldbekintomreyn, That's what I thought. Need to sign off for tonight, but will continue with this. Thanks y'all!21:23
tomreynit *may* get easier the next round ;)21:24
tomreyngood night21:24
nesoitrying to upgrade a 16.04 ubuntu EC2 to 18.04 and then 20.04. The upgrade to 18.04 just asked if I want to replace the grub configuration that was "locally modified". Any insight?23:40
arraybolt3[m]nesoi: Have you modified any of your GRUB configuration?23:41
enigma9o7[m]Do you multiboot (have other OS installed)?23:41
nesoiI don't23:41
EriC^^nesoi: /etc/default/grub or so was modified23:41
enigma9o7[m]a lot of times those prompts allow you to do a "D" difference23:41
nesoiright but I didn't modify it. Wondering if it needs some AWS modifications that I shouldn't remove23:41
enigma9o7[m]and it'll show you what its gunna change for your review23:41
nesoiyes I see that but don't know what the commands do actually23:41
enigma9o7[m]Did you add anything to your linux command line?  things like mitigations=off or noapic or something23:41
arraybolt3[m]nesoi: That's the most likely thing I would guess. Are you able to make snapshots or backups?23:42
oerheksit is easier to get a fresh ec2 image..23:42
enigma9o7[m]If you do the D difference, and share the screenshot, it'll be useful to us...23:42
enigma9o7[m]it will show +something for lines that add something23:42
enigma9o7[m]and -something for somethiing t hatr was removed23:42
nesoioerheks: say more? I'll have to reinstall all software though, no?23:42
nesoihttps://i.postimg.cc/3xGzV5zC/Screen-Shot-2022-06-23-at-4-42-35-PM.png23:44
enigma9o7[m]If you install clean, of course you would have to reinstall any software you want.23:44
enigma9o7[m]But installing clean would be a good idea, why not install 22.04 for that matter.23:44
nesoidoesn't look like much of a change really23:44
nesoienigma9o7[m]:  I was going to upgrade to that after testing 18.0423:44
enigma9o7[m]yeah those changes dont matter23:44
enigma9o7[m]just affect if its popping up automatically etc23:45
enigma9o7[m]but for one OS dont matter23:45
nesoiso keep existing grub config?23:45
enigma9o7[m]they did actually make one change, commenting your grub_consele=terminal line.  I'd hav eto check docs to see what that does23:46
enigma9o7[m]oh duh or i can just read23:47
enigma9o7[m]" uncomment to disable graphical terminal"23:47
enigma9o7[m]so you had disabled graphical terminal before23:47
nesoiright I don't use graphical terminal23:47
enigma9o7[m]so maybe there was a reason, so yeah i'd stick with original23:47
enigma9o7[m]but it probably makes no difference23:48
nesoihow about this one? https://i.postimg.cc/k4ScXqFf/Screen-Shot-2022-06-23-at-4-48-14-PM.png23:49
nesoinot sure why it's removing the host key?23:50
arraybolt3[m]nesoi: I dunno what it's doing or why, but make a snapshot or a backup. This looks like the perfect environment for things to go haywire.23:50
nesoiyou guys think I should just start with a new AMI?23:52
oerheksfrom 16, i would start fresh23:52
enigma9o7[m]Ya, even config files you have changed, the new version of software may have changed default config file format etc....23:53
nesoiI don't have a list of all the software that would have to be reinstalled though. Wonder if there's a tool that will take an inventory and then reinstall everything on a new system?23:53
enigma9o7[m]There is.23:53
nesoicool23:53
nesoiwhat is it? :)23:53
enigma9o7[m]I think it can be done with the basic stuff if you know what you're doing, like with apt or dpkg itself.  But others hopefully can answer, or you can find a tutorial on the web, etc.... sorry23:54
nesoihm.anyone here know how to do that?23:56
tomreyndo you have a file /var/log/installer/initial-status.gz ?23:57
EriC^^nesoi: comm -23 <(apt-mark showmanual | sort -u) <(gzip -dc /var/log/installer/initial-status.gz | sed -n 's/^Package: //p' | sort -u)23:57
tomreyn:)23:58
EriC^^nesoi: that gets you pretty close, then manually remove some and you're good to go, sudo xargs -a /list/you/made apt-get install -y , iirc23:58
