[00:03] <Scip> thanks to both of you! I don't have a /boot/grub/menu.lst somehow, will do some more reading. will also look into ansible/clonezilla
[02:05] <jhutchins> ansible is not for single machines.
[02:22] <leftyfb> jhutchins: false
[03:01] <tony4288> 一
[03:19] <jhutchins> You can also swat flies with a shotgun.
[03:45] <Lvl4Sword> It looks like the Firefox snap causes the following issue with Selenium: https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium/issues/10361 .. Which even with all the permissions enabled, still happens. Any simple fix for this? I've already asked in #selenium twice and have gotten no response.
[03:53] <realivanjx> is there a way to disable this popup dialog while keep receiving updates in the background? very annoying in the middle of work suddenly this appears! https://files.catbox.moe/so0qak.png
[07:09] <kerfluffy> hi
[07:09] <kerfluffy> i'm looking at the shell script and it has a line like "...streamid=#!::r=live/..."
[07:09] <kerfluffy> does anyone know what #!:: means?
[07:16] <Psil0[m]> Maybe write to live not really sure mt self good question
[07:18] <Psil0[m]> #!/bash right so file path
[07:18] <Psil0[m]> To live vs bin bash
[07:19] <Psil0[m]> #!/bash right so file path just why the :: instead of a folder
[07:19] <Psil0[m]> Is interesting
[07:24] <fuleo> Ubuntu grub booted to recovery, but stuck at "Waiting for bond master bond0 to be ready". What can I do to skip that ?
[07:25] <ikonia> change the depend in systemd
[07:25] <ikonia> or better still fix why your bonded interface is failing
[07:40] <Lvl4Sword> The Firefox fix was to do this ... os.environ["TMPDIR"] = "/home/user/tmp" ... for anyone else who bumps into this!
[07:59] <iomari891> Greetings, my kernel often updates when I "apt upgrade" but I can't reboot this server because of services running. Is there a way to apply the new kernel without rebooting?
[08:02] <gordonjcp> iomari891: no
[08:02] <gordonjcp> iomari891: not really, anyway
[08:06] <iomari891> gordonjcp: thanks
[08:25] <wip> iomari891: it's not a great idea to be dependent on a single running machine
[08:39] <iomari891> wip: I don't understand.
[08:40] <ravage> it that server is so important you cant even reboot it for a kernel update you should have more than one
[08:41] <iomari891> Let me explain. We have over 30 servers in a cluster that are in production that can not just randomly  be rebooted.
[08:42] <iomari891> not jsut 1
[08:42] <ravage> nobody said anything about a random reboot
[08:42] <iomari891> they can't be rebooted as often as they are update.
[08:43] <iomari891> but updates frequently want o upgrade kernels so I just hold back kernel updates. This solves my problem.
[08:50] <ogra> iomari891, https://ubuntu.com/security/livepatch ... that reduces the need for reboots ... (but is also a paid service)
[08:53] <wip> might be worth it if it's important production systems
[08:53] <wip> also depends on how exposed they are

[10:19] <TunaCan> Hey I got AMDGPU Radeon RX 570 series. Has anyone tried installing the propierity software or..
[10:21] <gtozzi> Hi there! I have a weird issue on my ubuntu/kde. When i switch to a virtual terminal (ctrl+alt+f5) after a few seconds it switches back to a black screen. How could i solve?
[10:22] <Guest3> hi any idea why i got a permission issue here and how to fix it? https://ideone.com/ml8wgH
[10:22] <ice9> why this strange versioning? "0.7.9-3ubuntu5.22.04.1 amd64 [upgradable from: 0.7.9-3ubuntu5]"
[10:24] <ice9> why these packages are kept back? https://bin.linux.pizza/?78875f58137894a0#5r8oJGKaRarxx2fBrusVreMRmzBZsFUuAd4thqeeACAU
[10:24] <Guest3> just do a sudo chmod 666 /var/run/docker.sock ?
[10:29] <tux2bsd> $host baked.potato
[10:30] <tux2bsd> resolve call failed: No appropriate name servers or networks for name found
[10:30] <tux2bsd> how on earth do you make systemd honour a search domain?
[10:30] <tux2bsd> this is 22.04
[10:31] <tux2bsd> resolvectl query potato
[10:32] <tux2bsd> potato: resolve call failed: No appropriate name servers or networks for name found
[10:32] <tux2bsd> ah fuck, delete 2x
[10:32] <tux2bsd> resolvectl query baked
[10:33] <tux2bsd> baked: resolve call failed: No appropriate name servers or networks for name found
[10:34] <tux2bsd> where the search domain is supposed to have send queries for the "potato" zone to the LAN dns server
[10:34] <tux2bsd> which is responding correctly, except for ubuntu
[10:36] <tux2bsd> fuck another typo... its 20.04 (not 22.04)
[10:38] <tux2bsd> God only knows how many thousands upon thousands of man hours that systemd twit is responsible for wasting.
[10:42] <ogra> tux2bsd, can you please stop swearing ... documentation for setting network stuff in ubuntu is on netplan.io ...
[10:43] <Guest3> hi any idea how to fix https://ideone.com/ml8wgH ?
[10:43] <Guest3> permission issue
[10:44] <anddam> howdy, I have an Ubuntu 18 guest in KVM, I updated packages and now the graphical login does not work in regular boot mode, it does in recovery mode
[10:44] <anddam> where "does not work" means I am presented with a purple-ish screen without the user selection menu
[10:46] <anddam> I do have access to the tty's, what should I check to see what the issue is?
[10:47] <tux2bsd> @ogra I found an answer from a different website that I would have otherwise shared, I've chosen not to because of your nanny state mindset.
[10:48] <anddam> in journalctl and dmesg I see several   [drm:qxl_alloc_bo_reserved [qxl]] *ERROR* failed to allocate VRAM BO
[11:18] <tux2bsd> systemd is awful.  This was the answer: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1399038/add-search-domain-in-ubuntu-20-04
[11:38] <ogra> ... except that this answer is completely unrelated to systemd 🙂 ...

[12:20] <cluelessperson> my user login shell is crashing, *every*, *single*, *day*
[12:20] <cluelessperson> actually, multiple times a day.
[12:21] <__main__> what do you mean by crashing
[12:21] <__main__> what error
[12:23] <Guest76> i think i have run into a catch 22 scenario on updating to 22.04 from 21.10. I am unable to do apt update, which is required for do-release-upgrade
[12:24] <lotuspsychje> !eolupgrade | Guest76
[12:24] <EriC^> Guest76: you can change the sources from archive.ubuntu.com to old-releases.ubuntu.com to continue with the upgrade

[12:25] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[12:31] <Guest76> Eric^: thank you
[12:34] <EriC^^> no problem Guest76
[12:56] <amaroq> greetings...just a little issue. I'm booting from a laptop that's plugged into a monitor. In settings>screen_display I set "Display Mode" to Single Display with the single Display being the external monitor. When we log in the window wheere we're asked for user name and passowrd it goes to the laptop. Only after I log in does Ubuntu show only on the monitor. Other distros have it so that once I've set it up to only show on monitor
[12:56] <amaroq> when I reboot the login also shows exclusively on the monitor, but not here. Wondering why? It means I can't hide the laptop away but have to bring it out on initial log in. Anyone know about this?
[12:56] <cluelessperson> __main__, no specific error I've found yet.  I'll look more closely next time.

[16:06] <hbdraldin> hi
[16:06] <lotuspsychje> welcome hbdraldin
[16:13] <goddard> looks like the chrome and firefox snaps have issues with saving to a sftp mount
[16:15] <leftyfb> goddard: google chrome is not a snap
[16:15] <Maik> chromium however is
[16:16] <enigma9o7[m]> maybe revert to deb, maybe by next ubuntu version snap won't have so many issues.
[16:18] <leftyfb> there are no supported deb's for firefox or chromium
[16:19] <leftyfb> I just mounted using sshfs and was able to save a file from firefox
[16:22] <goddard> leftyfb: fails for me with flatpak and snap
[16:23] <leftyfb> goddard: flatpak isn't supported here. As for the snap, are you sure you mounted the sshfs with the correct permissions/settings? Do you have access to write to it with the same user firefox is running as? (without sudo)
[16:23] <goddard> leftyfb: i know you tell me every time i bring it up
[16:23] <leftyfb> then don't bring it up anymore
[16:23] <goddard> why?
[16:24] <goddard> that is my options on ubuntu
[16:24] <leftyfb> because flatpaks aren't supported here
[16:24] <goddard> im not asking for your help on it
[16:24] <goddard> just saying
[16:24] <goddard> relax
[16:24] <leftyfb> goddard: settings -> applications -> firefox
[16:25] <Eickmeyer> goddard: I've been watching you. All you do is come here and complain. When you're told what the issue is and that you need to report a bug, you refuse. So all you're doing is coming to a support place and venting. This channel is not for venting.
[16:25] <lotuspsychje> goddard: thats not how support works here, every volunteer can advice on supporting users
[16:25] <goddard> Eickmeyer: all i do is encounter bugs that make me complain
[16:25] <Eickmeyer> goddard: This channel is not for complaining.
[16:25] <goddard> Eickmeyer: if asking for help sounds like complaining then maybe you should take a break
[16:25] <Maik> goddard: then learn to file those bugs so they can be solved.
[16:26] <mbeierl> I found an interesting thing with snaps: network mounts apparently need to be in /etc/fstab before the snap will allow for even running (cwd) in a network mount
[16:26] <goddard> i come here and report bugs
[16:26] <goddard> i ask for help
[16:26] <Eickmeyer> This channel is not for reporting bugs.
[16:26] <goddard> i share knowledge
[16:26] <goddard> ok buddy
[16:26] <Maik> goddard: bugs should be reported on Launchpad.
[16:26] <Eickmeyer> !bugs
[16:26] <leftyfb> mbeierl: not true
[16:28] <mbeierl> leftyfb, so here is what I found.  I installed jq as a snap, and I have my home directory mounted as NFS.  If I just do mount host:mount /home/me, then I get permission denied opening cwd when trying to use jq.  If /home/me is in /etc/fstab and mounted that way, it works
[16:28] <goddard> Eickmeyer: i think i tested like 10 different ways to do things and i asked a ton of questions yesterday to resolve issues that i have just been dealing with
[16:28] <Eickmeyer> goddard: Have you reported the bugs that you were asked to report?
[16:28] <leftyfb> goddard: did you check either of the things I have mentioned?
[16:29] <goddard> Eickmeyer: being a human, when I encounter bugs, I ask for help.  The support channel just tells me to report all the bugs I find.  If I did that I would spend my entire day yesterday reporting bugs.
[16:29] <goddard> no
[16:29] <goddard> because i dont want to
[16:29] <goddard> i just want to work at my job and fix these issues
[16:29] <Eickmeyer> Then you're done here because WE CANNOT FIX THE BUGS HERE.
[16:29] <hggdh> goddard: OK, this is enough.
[16:29] <leftyfb> goddard: ok, then stop asking for help if you don't want it
[16:29] <goddard> besdies all these bugs are actually already reported
[16:29] <goddard> and i figured out work arounds
[16:30] <goddard> none of those work arounds i found out here
[16:30] <Maik> then stop complaining if you simply refuse to report bugs you encounter.
[16:30] <goddard> Maik: i can't ask for help in the ubuntu channel unless i report bugs?
[16:30] <goddard> ok
[16:30] <goddard> bye
[16:31] <leftyfb> they refuse to file bugs and refuse to troubleshoot issues. They have no business here
[16:31] <hggdh> +1
[16:31] <Eickmeyer> +1
[18:04] <amosbird> Hello! How can I install gcc-12 on ubuntu:18.04?
[18:06] <leftyfb> amosbird: there is no supported way to do so. You shouldn't install packages from different releases on ubuntu. I would highly recommend upgrading ubuntu to a newer release or try running what you need in a container
[18:08] <oerheks> even the toolchain ppa does not give 12 for bionic
[18:09] <amosbird> Hmm, so what's the minimum version of ubuntu that have gcc-12?
[18:09] <leftyfb> 22.04
[18:09] <oerheks> 22.04 i guess
[18:11] <oerheks> standard would be gcc-11..
[18:11] <oerheks> hence: build in a vm
[18:11] <amosbird> oerheks: hmm, gcc-12 has been released for 3 months
[18:12] <oerheks> it *is* available. just not standard in LTS.
[18:12] <leftyfb> amosbird: ubuntu 18.04 was rleeased over 4 years ago
[18:12] <leftyfb> !latest | amosbird
[18:19] <sarnold> amosbird: the backportpackage program from the ubuntu-dev-tools package can try to blindly backport gcc-21 from a newer release to an older release in a ppa; compilers are complicated things and might not handle that well, but it might only be a few minutes of effort followed by a few hours of waiting
[18:19] <leftyfb> probably easier to just spin up a 22.04 lxd container though
[18:22] <sarnold> vastly
[18:24] <amosbird> hmm, so what's the latest gcc-11 version in ubuntu bionic?
[18:24] <EriC^^> !info gcc-11 bionic
[18:25] <oerheks> look at launchpad?
[18:25] <EriC^^> hmm, seems ubottu is bugging out, bionic isnt eol yet
[18:25] <oerheks> if you need to know hat version exactly,... you will find it
[18:27] <oerheks> gcc-11 was not released when 20.04 came out
[18:27] <mbeierl> Possibly silly question.  I reinstalled my desktop a while back with Ubuntu 22.04/Wayland.  I have a VPN that I want to automatically connect to, but that option seems to have gone out of the settings app.  Anyone know where it went?
[18:27] <oerheks> *hint*
[18:46] <sarnold> mbeierl: I think I heard it moved to nm-connections-editor or something like that
[18:50] <leftyfb> sarnold: I don't think moved is the right term. AFAIK, nm-connections-editor was the default for a while but then they moved to something else but left nm-connection-editor in because the replacement wasn't feature parity
[18:51] <sarnold> leftyfb: oh! that certainly tracks with gnome's history :) heh
[18:52] <leftyfb> looks like in 4 years they still haven't made it feature parity
[18:53] <leftyfb> mainly, the ability to add your own additional search domains in an ipv4 profile as well as enabling DHCP but setting your own nameserver
[18:53] <mbeierl> ah... don't have that installed.  It shouldn't conflict with the "something else"?
[18:53] <leftyfb> either of those can only be done using nm-connection-editor and not the built in network settings dialog
[18:54] <leftyfb> mbeierl: it is safe to install
[18:55] <mbeierl> doh!  Was installed, just made a typo.  Got it, thanks!
[18:55] <leftyfb> yeah, looks like the "metered connection" option doesn't exist in the default network settings dialog
[18:56] <quadHelix> whoops
[18:57] <cc0a3hr> do you think deleting ~/.cache safe?
[18:58] <leftyfb> cc0a3hr: only you can answer that. Take a look at what's in it and determine if you're ok with deleting the cache for all those applications
[18:59] <sarnold> cc0a3hr: it depends on the specific applications. I'd really hope they're all prepared to deal with it, but I've read too much code to believe that :)
[18:59] <oerheks> maybe the contents of ~/.cache/ .. not sure the cache folder is recreated
[18:59] <sarnold> cc0a3hr: if you run into problems, file bug reports with the applications
[18:59] <deego> cc0a3hr: not sure, but i do it all the time, and, atm, it actually resides in tmpfs for me
[18:59] <deego> but, like sarnold  says, never say never..
[19:00] <oerheks> oh crossposting
[19:00] <oerheks> lolz
[19:00] <oerheks> yes, delete all, like they tell you in #linux
[19:01] <oerheks> or debian..
[19:12] <szindzeks> Hi. I have a VPS on GCP to which I've designated 10GB of disk space. It has later turned out, that I need more than that, so I expanded the disk space to 20GB. It worked correctly, so all that's left to do is resize partition, but idk how to do that. I tried using parted, but resize command has been depracated and resize2fs, but it seems to only resize filesystems and not partitions.
[19:15] <leftyfb> szindzeks: growpart
[19:17] <leftyfb> szindzeks: https://dade2.net/kb/how-to-extend-filesystem-on-linux/#mce_7
[19:21] <szindzeks> leftyfb: Thanks you so much! Have a great day!
[19:27] <steve_> I have a laptop with Ubuntu dual booted with Windows.
[19:28] <lntl> my mini-httpd server refuses connections. It's started systemd-style and its status is OK. Any ideas?
[19:28] <lntl> https://termbin.com/7lh9 systemctl status
[19:29] <sarnold> lntl: how are you trying to connect to it/
[19:29] <lntl> curl http://<ip-address>
[19:30] <sarnold> what IP address? if you're using anything other than 127.0.0.1 it isn't going to work
[19:30] <leftyfb> lntl: make sure it's listening on the correct interface/ip and that the port is open from the outside
[19:30] <steve_> Windows seemed to kick Ubuntu out.  I installed another Ubuntu along side Ubuntu.  I got rid of the Ubuntu I had. Now, I'm looking to join the partition of the old Ubuntu with the partition of the new Ubuntu
[19:30] <sarnold> lntl: what port? if you're using anything other than 81, it isn't going to work
[19:31] <leftyfb> steve_: you can boot a live usb and use gparted to delete the old partition(s) and resize your new partition.
[19:31] <leftyfb> steve_: FYI, Windows didn't "kick ubuntu out" exactly. It just overrides the MBR/EFI. You could have easily repaired grub and still been able to dual boot both
[19:33] <steve_> leftyfb: I did the deletion of the old partition, but I can't seem to be able to resize the partition
[19:33] <EriC^^> steve_: are you booted into a live usb right now? you cant do it from the installation itself
[19:33] <leftyfb> steve_: they need to be adjascent
[19:33] <leftyfb> also what EriC^^ said
[19:33] <leftyfb> sort of ;)
[19:34] <lntl> sarnold: +1 ip address. I thought it'd listen on loopback, but I guess thats not how it works
[19:34] <EriC^^> steve_: it'd be helpful to share the output of 'sudo parted -ls' if you're in ubuntu right now, to address what leftyfb mentioned aove
[19:34] <leftyfb> technically you can, but it's not recommedned and you still need to reboot to take advantage
[19:34] <leftyfb> lntl: loopback is only for local access
[19:34] <steve_> leftyfb: I'm not in a live cd, but if that is what I need to do, I will
[19:34] <leftyfb> steve_: it is. Good luck. Let us know if you run into any trouble
[19:35] <steve_> leftyfb: And the partitions are adjacent
[19:35] <steve_> ok. thx
[19:35] <sarnold> lntl: the log said "127.0.0.1, port 81" -- that pretty much means only the localhost can access it, and it's got to use that specific address to do so
[19:35] <leftyfb> steve_: then you should be good once you're in the live session
[19:35] <steve_> thx leftyfb
[19:35] <sarnold> lntl: you can probably change the bind address and port if needed
[19:35] <sarnold> lntl: most software has that option, but maybe something named 'mini-httpd' isn't interested in public serving ;)
[19:36] <leftyfb> lntl: I would recommend nginx if you just need a small http server for continual testing. If you just need something as a 1-off, just use "python3 -m http.server"
[21:01] <barg> When I do ufw status, it doesn't show port numbers. It says e.g. Apache allow in anywhere.  How do I get it to show port numbers?
[21:06] <sarnold> at that level of detail you're probably more interested in iptables -L  or whatever that command is..
[21:06] <oerheks> sudo ufw status verbose
[21:07] <oerheks> sudo ufw show raw
[22:23] <barg> thanks
[22:27] <horse9> what is it with those insanely thicc header bars of the windows on gnome42/ubuntu22?
