[00:01] leftyfb: i did not read the whole conversation but ListenStream=0.0.0.0:22 results in a lister "0.0.0.0:22" [00:02] *listener [00:04] ravage: ooooo , that did it (BindIPv6Only=no does NOT work ) [00:05] "If the address string is a string in the format "v.w.x.y:z", it is interpreted as IPv4 address v.w.x.y and port z." [00:05] from https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.socket.html [00:06] so basically openssh has just thrown it's hands up and left it all up to systemd, including documentation [00:08] ravage: the examples I kept finding were only specifying a port for ListenSteam so I didn't know the ip was an option as well [00:08] ListenStream* [00:08] Mystery solved now at least :) [00:08] yep, thanks. Good call [00:11] what is an easy way to create a .deb file for installation that installs a system service? [00:11] !packaging | pycurious [00:11] pycurious: The packaging guide is at http://packaging.ubuntu.com/html/ - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/NewPackages for information on getting a package integrated into Ubuntu - Other developer resources are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment - See also !backports and !sponsoring [00:12] ravage: wait, that DIDN'T actually do the trick, I was looking in the wrong place [00:13] leftyfb: it still looks painfule? [00:13] pycurious: YMMV [00:14] are there any wrappers around that readme - that can easily create deb packages from my source code? I just need to copy some files in the right locations and run systemctl enable [00:17] pycurious: I've heard good things about https://github.com/jordansissel/fpm [00:22] wait [00:22] ListenStream=0.0.0.0:22 goes in sshd_config? [00:22] no [00:22] oh. [00:22] but it doesn't matter, it doesn't solve the issue anyway [00:23] openssh doesn't handle the config for this sort of thing (listening on ipv6) when you have socket activation enabled [00:23] it's done in systemd as part of the ssh.socket [00:24] I'm still trying to nail this down because it's going to become important for me in a couple years when I move to 24.04 [00:24] and there's no way to tell systemd not to listen on v6? [00:24] I'm sure there is, I just haven't found it yet [00:24] ok [00:24] but I'm on a mission now :) [00:24] thank you for looking into it [00:24] leftyfb: what exactly doesnt work with it? [00:24] ravage: openssh is still listening on ipv6 [00:24] it was ::22 before i made the change and now its 0.0.0.0:22 [00:25] how is it listening on v6 when *there's no v6 interface defined*? [00:26] I mean, you have to bind to an address and a port. What address is it using? [00:26] that won't matter [00:26] ok, hold on, that gives me an idea [00:26] https://p.haxxors.com/p89h6076.txt [00:27] am i missing something here? [00:27] ravage: do a netstat -anop please? [00:27] ravage: also lsof -i :22 [00:27] oh wait [00:27] um, don't you mean `ss -anop` ? [00:27] thats what i did [00:28] aberrant: what release of ubuntu are you on? [00:28] netstat deprecated last century. [00:28] bougyman: I'm old-school. I use netstat. [00:28] leftyfb: 22.10 [00:28] :/ [00:28] bougyman: only on linux systems, perhaps. [00:29] afair, ubuntu is a linux system. [00:29] I can't believe we even still ship netstat. [00:29] yes, but I use more than linux. :P [00:29] in any case. [00:30] what address is this thing binding to in order to listen? [00:30] and ravage: how did you disable v6 binding? [00:30] It's listening? WOuldn't that be ss -nltp, then? [00:30] ravage: https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/dB78ysHGQV/ [00:30] bougyman: netstat -anop | grep LISTEN [00:30] whatever. TMTOWTDI [00:31] well the -l is specifically listening stuff. [00:31] I appreciate you trying to educate me in linux-specific commands but I've got 30+ years of muscle memory to overcome. [00:31] just bear with my old-school commands. That's not the problem that needs to be solved right now. [00:31] You must be one of the remaining ps -ef folks, too :) [00:32] no [00:32] ps auxww [00:32] ps awwfux, here. [00:32] got disconnected [00:33] ravage: https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/dB78ysHGQV/ [00:33] ravage: what version of ubuntu? [00:33] leftyfb: add an empty ListenStream= line before your override line [00:33] TF? [00:33] that should tell systemd to ignore whats in the original file [00:34] ok, I'm gonna try that. That's two files, right? [00:34] ssh.socket and override.conf? [00:35] ravage: https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/G5rxySf3x9/ [00:35] mhm [00:35] ok, my ssh.socket looks pretty much the same as that. [00:35] but if you do edit --full on the socket it works? [00:35] i did not use any override [00:35] ravage: how did you do this? [00:36] sudo systemctl edit --full ssh.socket [00:37] ravage: then just the ListenStream= before the other one? [00:37] you only need ListenStream=0.0.0.0:22 [00:38] in the [Unit] section unsetting stuff works like i told leftyfb [00:38] never tried it in the socket section [00:38] no matter what combination I try it doesn't work [00:38] ok, that did it [00:38] :/ [00:38] now I need to do the same thing for nfs and its helpers. [00:39] aberrant: sudo systemctl cat ssh.socket # can you pastebin this for me please? [00:39] leftyfb: sure, but I did exactly what ravage suggested: systemctl edit --full ssh.socket, commented out ListenStream=22 and added ListenStream=0.0.0.0:22 [00:40] yeah, I did that too but it's not working [00:40] I'd like to see the output [00:40] leftyfb: https://pastebin.com/e2r5s66j [00:42] leftyfb: did that help? [00:43] weird. It's working on one RPi but not the other. [00:44] https://pastebin.com/raUrKXBN [00:44] this is the output of mine [00:45] exactly the same as your minus a space in the commented out line [00:45] not working [00:45] yeah. It's working on my first RPi but not my second. [00:45] exactly the same. [00:46] https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/pqm23mP4M3/ [00:46] something is missing [00:46] aberrant: how did you disable ipv6 elsewhere? [00:46] leftyfb: one sec [00:47] leftyfb: https://pastebin.com/3vnYgr7A [00:47] leftyfb (/etc/sysctl.conf) [00:48] I miss the days of /etc/rc :) [00:48] at least I knew wtf was going on. [00:50] got it [00:50] share! [00:50] hold on, validating [00:50] container is acting up now [00:50] bonus points if you can get nfs and rpc.statd to stop trying to use v6 [00:56] jeez. I got it on my first system but doing the exact same thing on the second and .. nothing [00:56] aberrant: I rebooted and it's working. I tried all the different iterations. It only seems to work if you edit with --full. Not an override [00:56] gotta go now [00:57] I did that. [00:57] and rebooted [00:57] no joy [00:57] oh, crap, it's good now [00:57] I guess it starts up and then shuts it down? [00:59] Dealing with a Heisenbug? Missed the start of the debugging session, interested in trying to help. [00:59] arraybolt3: I think we've got it (at least for ssh). The problem is this: when you disable ipv6 systemwide using sysctl.conf, daemons still "bind" (not sure how) to v6 addresses. [01:00] Oh fun. No clue how to work with that kind of thing, sorry! Glad you're making progress! [01:00] ssh, nfs, and rpc.statd are three that I know of. We fixed ssh, but nfs and rpc.statd are still binding to v6. [01:00] it was not intuitive. [01:01] as soon as I find a distro that is systemd-free that works reliably on an RPi, I'm gonna seriously consider it. I just don't understand these new-fangled features. [01:04] aberrant: devuan has no pi stuff? [01:04] Alright, I know I can google this, but I'd like to get this right the first time and am hoping for someone to lead me through it. I am trying to avoid ever fully rebooting a particular desktop, and would like to simply kexec when I need to reboot. Trouble is this system uses the proprietary NVIDIA drivers, which throw a *fit* when you try to do this. I know the general idea of how to get around [01:04] this (drop down to a text console and shut most everything else off, unload NVIDIA drivers, then kexec), but I don't know the exact procedure and am wondering if someone can lead me through step-by-step. [01:06] (For those wondering why I'm trying to do this, I have a ton of HDDs installed in this desktop and would like them to not ever spin down, plus they add a good amount of time to the boot process. I'm hoping to dodge the delay and spindown-spinup cycle by using kexec.) [01:07] murmel: devuan's package repo is pretty sparse. [01:08] might try alpine. [01:09] aberrant: systemd is pretty good. Just different. Once you get used to it, it’s better than the old alternatives. In your particular case, it was a matter of openssh throwing it’s hands up for a lot of its configs and handing it off to systemd. [01:09] aberrant: was pretty sure they pull the rest of the packages from debian, as they only edit the systemd stuff [01:10] I’m not sure what’s up with this listenstream business and why an override won’t work [01:10] Let’s not discuss other distros here please [01:10] sorry [01:10] leftyfb: what about nfs and rpc.statd? [01:10] they're doing the same thing. [01:13] Hmm... I've managed to shut off X, but "sudo modprobe -r nvidia" is just telling me "modprobe: FATAL: Module nvidia not found." [01:14] Same results trying to unload nvidia_drm. [01:14] sudo lsmod === routebee is now known as route-bee [01:14] maybe it already unloaded. [01:16] Used lsmod, I was able to see them. I just decided to try rmmod, which appears to have worked. [01:17] Yep, success! NVIDIA seems to be working right after running the final "systemctl kexec". Woot! Screen flashed alarmingly for a bit at first, but it seems to have worked. [01:17] I now see the NVIDIA modules loaded properly. [01:17] And the new kernel is loaded! Alright! [01:18] wow. That's pretty sick. [01:18] Sweet. [01:18] It was a lot easier than expected. [01:19] Just logged out, switched to a TTY, ran "sudo systemctl stop sddm", then kexec loaded the new kernel and initrd, rmmod'd all the NVIDIA drivers, then "systemctl kexec" and BAM, screen went nuts and then rebooted properly. [01:19] * arraybolt3 now needs to script that whole mess [01:20] I have no wish to ever do that. It's cool that it can be done, though. [01:20] (This is on Lubuntu 22.04.) [01:20] I live in the cloud, where everything fails all the time, and you have to be ready for that. [01:20] arraybolt3: hope you share your script ;) [01:20] Hotpatching kernels is the antithesis of immuatble infrastructure :) [01:21] murmel: Sure thing :) [01:21] Well that was too much fun. I'm gonna write the script now. [01:25] murmel: https://termbin.com/42hic - This assumes you're using SDDM, so this probably won't work on standard GNOME. Log out, switch to a TTY, then run the script and it should speed-reboot your system. It should work even with an NVIDIA card with proprietary drivers. Use caution, don't break anything. I just successfully rebooted my desktop with it. [01:29] I wonder how viable it would be to use kexec to hot-reboot into a different Linux installation. :P Anyway, I'm going far off-topic. [01:41] arraybolt3: Lilo will do that. [01:44] Has development started on Ubuntu 24.04? Alternately is there a different channel where that question would be more appropriate? [01:44] #ubuntu-next [01:45] Thanks. [01:45] but I hope we are talking 23.04 not 24.04 :) [01:45] ... I kind of hoped 23.04 was already well on the way. [01:45] 25.25 [01:46] lts or nothin' for me. [01:46] sure but the next lts isn't developed for a while superkuh [01:46] Okay. Thanks again. [02:12] hi guys [02:13] i just installed 20.10 [02:13] kubuntu [02:13] how do i start kde on a new console tty2 [02:14] Pr070cal_: did you actually installed an eol release? [02:14] no 20.10 [02:14] Pr070cal_: that's five months out of date, probably better to just grab a new 22.04 image -- maybe kubuntu -- and install that instead [02:14] oh sorry 22.10 [02:16] so how do i start kde on 22.10 on a new console [02:17] sartx wont start a window manager [02:18] i mean startx [02:18] startplasma-wayland also wont start window manager ? [02:18] ctrl + alt + f2 tty2 [02:19] what's your ~/.xinitrc look like? [02:19] i want to start manually from tty2 [02:19] i used to do it all the time [02:19] Pr070cal_: Running multiple X sessions is a somewhat rare topic and you might not find much here. Possibly better to search the web. [02:20] but i had to run startx && something else like window manager [02:20] Pr070cal_: We used to be a lot closer to multi-user multi-session environments than single user systems. [02:25] Pr070cal_: Does the Switch User feature of KDE work? (Heads up, if you try to sign in to the same user twice it seems to go haywire, I have no idea if it works with multiple users. Save your work and be prepared to reboot before trying this.) [02:26] ok [02:26] how do i start a new kde session [02:26] from console tty2 [02:40] I just installed haveged and rng-tools and restarted the machine. Why is entropy still showing only 256. Command: cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/entropy_avail [02:43] lord_daemon: check your poolsize; it's probably also 256. the entropy_avail can't be higher than the poolsize [02:51] sarnold, cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/poolsize [02:51] 256 [02:53] sarnold, sysctl kernel.random.poolsize=4096 [02:53] works? [02:54] lord_daemon: good question, I wonder if there's a maximum size.. [02:56] how to fix "libva error: vaGetDriverNameByIndex() failed with unknown libva error, driver_name = (null)" error [02:56] oh, that's read-only, it'll take a recompile to change it, and it might even require a new algorithm [03:05] I read here that you can't change newer kernels anymore, well, I'll assume it's safe because I don't have the knowledge to compile my own kernel =) [05:08] bluesceada: but it still works fine for me, just that notifications do not work [05:19] Hi, can i remove the text labels on lubuntu on the panel [05:21] desktop: I think so, one moment... [05:22] desktop: [05:22] OK, I have figured out how to do it. [05:22] how ? [05:23] desktop: Right-click on the taskbar, and click "Configure Panel". [05:23] In the window that pops up, click Widgets (it's in the menu on the left-hand side). [05:23] Next, in the list of items that you'll see, click "Task Manager". [05:24] Let me know when you get that far. [05:24] i remove task manager? [05:24] desktop: No, just click it. [05:24] i did [05:24] desktop: Next, there's a column of buttons on the right-hand side of the screen. [05:24] yep [05:24] The bottom-most button should look like a circle with three dots in it. [05:24] Click that button. [05:25] Does this pop up a window "Task Manager Setting" for you? [05:25] yes [05:25] Alright, in the Appearance section, there's an option "Button style". Set it to "Only icon". [05:26] thank you [05:26] You may also want to check the "Window grouping" check box while you're right here, if you're going for a Windows 7-like feel. [05:26] Then you can just click "Close" in both the Task Manager Settings window and the Configure Panel window. [05:27] got it [05:28] 👍️ Nice! Glad to be able to help! [05:43] hi all. why ubuntu denied install itself alongside win11 if windows encryption in on? [05:47] Hi guys, I'm trying to pipe gzip output to adb shell but gzip is just dumping its output to stdout. https://pastebin.com/yeDnCRWd I am trying to flash postmarketOS (a linux distro) to an ASUS intel tablet following this guide https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/ASUS_MeMO_Pad_7_(asus-me176c) [05:50] comicrajiv: I'm assuming you mean Windows BitLocker is enabled on your drive? [05:51] if so, you won't be able to read/write that drive as it is proprietary Windows encryption. [05:51] yes [05:52] Zaphida: https://pastebin.com/yeDnCRWd -> "This page is no longer available. It has either expired, been removed by its creator, or removed by one of the Pastebin staff." [05:52] if so, you won't be able to read/write that drive....... so must turn off the windows encryption to install ubuntu alongside it or i have to install ubuntu alone? [05:52] Zaphida: are oyou actually doing this on ubuntu? [05:53] tomreyn yes [05:53] on jellyfish [05:53] cosmicrajiv: you will need to turn off / undo bitlocker encryption. [05:53] ok [05:54] tomreyn strange, let me repost without the binary data. [05:54] cosmicrajiv: consider alternatives, too, though, such as using virtualization [05:54] Zaphida: see !paste for the pastebin we currently recommend here [05:54] (it is not pastebin.com) [05:54] !paste [05:54] For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use https://dpaste.com | To post !screenshots use https://imgur.com | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. [05:55] yeah, your are right. i am going to install ubuntu alone and do virtualization of win11 from that. [05:55] thanks [05:55] going to say good bye to windows:) [05:57] tomreyn https://dpaste.com/B8H9367GQ [05:58] cosmircajiv goodbye windows it was not a pleasure [06:00] yeah;) [06:01] why ubuntu 22.04.1 recomments nvidia 525.xx when 515.xx is the production version? [06:02] i checked using ubuntu-drivers. [06:02] should i follow the recommendation or just install the production version? [06:04] Zaphida: while the gzip command certainly returns the compressed version of your image file to stdout, apparently adb shell does not have a way to handle this input. sure, you are running zcat inside the adb shell, but that doesn't mean that adb passes input it gets via stdin into that shell [06:06] cosmicrajiv: can you explain the term "production version" in this context? [06:07] .. check this page https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/unix/ [06:07] now its 525.xx [06:08] so? [06:08] i was checked yesterday and it shows 515.xx [06:08] oh ok [06:09] https://docs.nvidia.com/grid/index.html also refers to "december", so it's probably a recent change [06:09] so i was just asking that should i always install what ubuntu-devices recommends? [06:12] tomreyn strange that the postmarketOS has this as the command to use if fastboot flash fails. well, I don't think I want compressed output, I think need to write the raw data of the image to the device, so I need to output the uncompressed output. I could be wrong [06:12] tomreyn: which should i install https://pastebin.com/raw/SGEvtcCw [06:12] depends on how it's supposed to be stored. maybe it gets uncompressed on boot [06:12] cosmicrajiv: you should use what matches your requirements, is supposedly compatible to your hardware, and is actually compatible to your hardware. [06:12] !nvidia [06:12] Drivers for Nvidia graphics cards: (A) No gaming/CAD/CUDA needed or legacy hardware? Use "nouveau" (open source, lacks many features). (B) Otherwise, "nvidia" (proprietary driver, fully featured). Install using "ubuntu-drivers" CLI or apt - not from nvidia.com. Driver series, hardware support (release notes): https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/unix/ - Latest drivers !PPA: https://pad.lv/ppa/graphics-drivers [06:13] cosmircajiv https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYWzMvlj2RQ [06:14] why does my game still runs badly after installing nvidia drivers [06:15] Zaphida: the zcat would have undone the compression, if it had received the data through adb [06:15] Zaphida: i saw it years ago. but the problem is most of the computer manufacturers still ships with nvidia. [06:16] desktop: if you have a lot more details, someone may be able to suggest what to do there [06:18] what is the difference between nvidia-driver-525-open and nvidia-driver-525? [06:19] the -open one has permissively licensed kernel modules [06:21] so should it contains all the features that the one without "open" contains? [06:22] i guess not yet, but that's something nvidia are working on [06:23] ok. so if ubuntu-devices recommends that one then i shoul go with the same version without the "open"? [06:24] should* [06:25] yes, probably. ubuntu-drivers only, initally, follows nvidias' recommendations on what is supposedly compatible to what, so this can still result in booting without graphics, if you're unlucky. [06:27] but you can then boot to recovery and, if you have network connectivity, switch to a different nvidia proprietary driver, or, if you don't, switch to nouveau by uninstalling *nvidia* packages [06:27] ok [06:29] tomreyn well I did this same thing on windows with gzip.exe and I got this: https://snipboard.io/XJdBPT.jpg [06:29] err sorry https://snipboard.io/nqd6t8.jpg [06:32] Zaphida: you are looking for help with android and adb, which i cannot provide [06:33] there are certainly more dedicated channels to this topic, though [06:33] !alis [06:33] Alis is an IRC service to help you find channels. For help on using it, see «/msg Alis help list» or ask in #libera - Example usage: «/msg Alis list http» [06:46] tomreyn yes === dongcarl4 is now known as dongcarl [10:36] I really really dislike the screenshot tool that came bundled with Ubuntu 22.04 - is there anyway I can revert to the screenshot set-up that Ubuntu 20.04 had? [10:36] geh [10:36] hej [10:36] sa [10:36] d [10:36] af [10:36] sd [10:41] jdaviescoates: try ksnip or flameshot [10:41] jdaviescoates: the old one is gnome-screenshot [10:41] think flameshot is good for wayland these days [10:41] > I really really dislike the screenshot tool that came bundled with Ubuntu 22.04 - is there anyway I can revert to the screenshot set-up that Ubuntu 20.04 had? [10:41] OK, so I've installed the good old gnome-screenshot which has got me almost there, but now I also need to revert what happens when I press the PrintScreen button on my keyboard so that it simply prints the screen with no further interaction instead of opening the annoying new screenshot tool which frustrates me no end. [10:41] Thanks SteelRose lotuspsychje [10:42] jdaviescoates: check your hotkeys or dconf-editor to edit key values [10:43] jdaviescoates: theres also an app input-remapper that will allow you to change keys [10:43] thanks lotuspsychje I'll have a poke around [11:01] Is there any way to disable cloud-init on initial boot? Seems to be stuck and I just want to provision this manually over KVM its the 22.04 LTS release. === darkowlzz1 is now known as darkowlzz [11:08] I can see port 22 is open on the box but I cant actually ssh into it.. I havent set any keys or anything [11:09] whysix_: ssh -vvv might help to see why [11:10] well it has no keys [11:10] its an ubuntu live iso [11:10] 22.04 [11:10] I just want it to run a regular install lol [11:13] ah, did not know it's an installer [11:13] this should be the easy bit lol [11:13] i just want rid of this cloud-init shit [11:33] hello, I am trying to debug why at some point, under a number of simultaneous login attempts in the order of thousands, my ubuntu server became totally unresponsive over any tcp port, even after reboot, and only stopping ufw permitted a new ssh login [11:33] that was a bit traumatic, is it a default rule of ufw to block all ports under too many connections? I did not know. And also: do such blocks survive reboot? If so how to fix this behaviour? [11:35] is there a log of such limits when they are applied [11:38] whysix_: https://blog.rylander.io/2020/12/23/how-to-remove-cloud-init-from-ubuntu-server-20-04/ <-- have you tried that? [11:39] vincenzo: do you have fail2ban installed? [11:39] hello everyone. what is a correct line for main repository in sources.list for cosmic release ? [11:39] SteelRose, im little confused I dont have a terminal prompt yet [11:39] is there a way to run this before boot or something? [11:40] Its just stuck on cloud init... and rotating / \ symbol [11:40] whysix_: you can boot into single-user mode, apply one of the changes there and reboot [11:40] it doesnt fallback to just.. running the iso lol [11:40] ohhh [11:40] how? [11:41] whysix_: do you have a running system already or are you installing a new one from scratch? [11:41] new one from scratch [11:41] @SteelRose:no I dont have fail2ban [11:41] its not remote [11:42] vincenzo: any firewall up and running? what does the logs say? [11:42] whysix_: what do you use to deploy it? ISO image or Infrastructure-as-Code tools, such as Terraform? [11:43] SteelRose: yes I had ufw enabled as per default ubuntu-server configuration. I am unsure where to find its log, though [11:43] vincenzo: journalctl -u ufw.service [11:44] is there a way to download deb packages for cosmic release directly from ubuntu package directory ? === darkowlzz0 is now known as darkowlzz [11:45] SteelRose, just an ISO === diskin is now known as Guest1906 === diskin_ is now known as diskin [11:46] whysix_: it's been a while since I used an ISO to deploy Ubuntu but I don't remember seeing that cloud-init stuff when I installed 20.04 LTS on my work laptop... hmm... [11:47] SteelRose, I only see start and stop messages there. Are there other means, e.g. direct iptables [11:47] does it have a different log [11:48] vincenzo: try: iptables -L -v <-- as root, of course [11:49] ah yes, but now the firewall is disabled (otherwise I cant connect) [11:49] bob_x1, cosmic (18.10) is long EOL ... upgrade to a newer version (and use LTS if you do not want it to EOL after 9 months) [11:49] !eol | bob_x1 [11:49] bob_x1: End-Of-Life is when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop. Make sure to update Ubuntu before it goes EOL so you get updates promptly for newly-discovered security vulnerabilities. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOL and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more info. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades [11:50] vincenzo: is that issue happening on a regular basis? or only after several connections? [11:50] bob_x1, see the last link the bot posted [11:50] ah thanks i will read [11:54] ogra: now i have a certificate expired error after apt update command [11:54] is it possible to ignore this error ? [11:54] currently it is not critical [12:08] SteelRose, on a regular basis I got sort of short blocks that led me to further investigation [12:08] Further investigation was in the form of "watch -n 1 iperf ..." which led to a permanent block === darkowlzz4 is now known as darkowlzz [12:23] vincenzo: perhaps the -n 1 was the culprit ... [12:23] vincenzo: I'd install and configure fail2ban as it also provides logs for its activity === victorbrca3 is now known as victorbrca === darkowlzz4 is now known as darkowlzz === darkowlzz5 is now known as darkowlzz [13:14] SteelRose, yeah im stumped.. I just want this page to fk off lol.. [13:14] https://imgur.com/l3fxUtv.png [13:14] There must be a way to bypass this [13:15] I installed the last LTS release on boxes and never done this.. [13:15] LOL weird must have heard me [13:15] Hi all [13:15] last time I ran all night with nothing.. now its timedout and started regular install [13:15] how odd === darkowlzz9 is now known as darkowlzz [13:21] whysix_: install 20.04 LTS instead and then do a distro-upgrade... [13:21] that's my proposal... I haven't installed 22.04 yet [13:21] hi BluesKaj [13:22] hey SteelRose [13:32] my god wayland is just awful [13:33] mybalzitch, trigger happy development is annoying [13:38] SteelRose, don't [13:38] firefox is a snap in 22.04 [13:39] pikapika: ?? [13:39] if you upgrade to 22.04 you will find firefox is a snap package [13:39] pikapika: I'm not upgrading to 22.04 ... and don't use FF anyway :-) [13:39] oh ok you were answering someone, not describing what you want ot do [13:40] pikapika: exactly [13:53] hi folks [13:54] I have GSconnect installed on this system (all updates installed), and KDEconnect on my phone. All's working pretty well, except for mounting the phone on this system. === archer_ is now known as archer [13:55] I get no feedback when I select 'mount', but am not seeing the phone anywhere. === LabMonkey is now known as Mechanismus [14:01] johnfg: I use KDEconnect on my phone and on my desktop. All works flawlessly... no idea about what GSConnect is [14:14] also, how do i record every command used as root into a log file (with timestamp)? - perhaps even ship that file to a central location? [14:17] geosmile: https://nixhive.com/log-sudo-commands/ [14:46] SteelRose: It's the extension in GnomeShell that interacts with KDEconnect. [14:47] johnfg: thanks! I googled it right after I showed my ignorance here :-D [14:48] Hi. My output audio device resets to wrong one after each reboot (or logging out and in again) in Ubuntu 22.04. Is there some place I can use to persistently configure the correct device? [14:49] And a second issue I have is with Steam snap. In steam games microphone does not work. Push to talk button seems to do nothing and for example in CS:GO there isn't even any option to select input device in audio settings. [14:49] mic does work elsewhere like in Discord [14:51] Fayn: I'd recommend updating/reinstalling the firmware [14:51] For the record it's samson meteor mic. === scoobydoo_ is now known as scoobydoo [14:58] hi [15:09] SteelRose: you mean the linux-firmware package? or something else [15:10] that's already up to date [15:11] Fayn: fwupdmgr get-updates <-- try this [15:14] Looks like that's up to date as well, thanks anyway. === diskin is now known as Guest7305 === diskin_ is now known as diskin [15:17] Fayn, for the steam snap, try #ubuntu-desktop ... the people packaging it are in that channel [15:18] Fayn, could well be that your audio-record plug is simply not connected for the snap ... try "snap connections steam" to see if it is [15:19] Plug shows steam:audio-record but Slot is "-" [15:20] sudo snap connect steam:audio-record [15:20] that should connect it ... then try again if your mic works in the app [15:35] ogra: that fixed it, thanks \o/ [15:36] Fayn, awesome ... once there is a stable steam snap i think it will auto-connect such interfaces [15:53] hi [15:54] hello [15:55] hello [15:55] where are u from ?

Please register with NickServ (see /msg ubottu !register) and use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [16:31] I am stuck at login screen. I know there is something wrong with the Xauthority file but i'm not able to access the cli from the login screen. [16:31] I can drop to the root shell prompt but can't navigate my way to the Xauthority file from there [16:33] blackhawk, why not ? [16:33] Can you please tell me the exact location for the Xauthority file ? [16:34] blackhawk, usually, your home... but it's not used anymore on recent editions [16:35] I'm 16.04 but on ESM so supported till 2026. I know 16.04 is abandoned but some help would be appreciated [16:36] ok... [16:36] If you are so certaint that the problem is that file, then just rm /home/username/.Xauthority [16:36] Then once it fails again post the Xorg log :) [16:37] A'right. I found the file in /home/username. [16:39] The internet lead me to conclude that being stuck on the login screen was due to problems related to the Xauthority file [16:40] I recently had tried to setup a RDP server with xrdp using xfce4 for the environment [16:46] blackhawk: if you're on ESM, then you have support through Canonical [16:48] blackhawk: that said, you should REALLY upgrade to a release that isn't over 6 years old [16:48] through cannonical means ubuntu one advantage, something like that right ? [16:49] blackhawk: https://ubuntu.com/support/contact-us [16:49] Thank You, appreciate that [16:50] blackhawk: Rather than deleting it, rename it. [16:52] I check for the permissions of the file and they seem to be just fine. [16:53] I think somehow, the package ( DE) ubuntu-desktop had gotten removed. A simple "sudo apt install ubuntu-desktop" solved the problem. [16:54] Thanks for the help though, didn't need to reach out to the support in this case :-) [16:55] https://www.maketecheasier.com/fix-ubuntu-login-loop/#:~:text=Instead%2C%20press%20Ctrl%20%2B%20Alt%20%2B,provide%20your%20password%20when%20asked. Found this guide really helpful [16:55] that cmd just installs a meta-pkg [16:57] hello chaps. i have a server with oracle cloud. for some reason when the server starts i can't seem to connect to nginx. at first i thought it was something to do with the iptables but after removing each rule until no rules, and when flushing all rules, it still didn't work. however, restarting nginx made it work. so after restarting the server and trying again, this time i only restarted nginx and it worked. consistently [16:57] every time the servers restarted, i have to restart nginx in order for it to work. so when it doesn't work, i can see packets are reaching the server using tcpdump: `16:56:03.424258 IP XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX.50498 > 10.0.0.145.80: Flags [S], seq 1657802296, win 64240, options [mss 1460,sackOK,TS val 4048372450 ecr 0,nop,wscale 7], length 0 and 16:56:03.424298 IP 10.0.0.145.80 > XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX.50498: Flags [R.], seq 0, ack 1657802297, [16:57] win 0, length 0` -- what am I doing wrong? [16:57] ``` [16:58] Another question is that while using xrdp to create a remote server, can I use ubuntu-desktop as the desktop environment ? [16:58] only if logged out [16:59] okay, i get that. So hows the idea of getting the ubuntu-minimal meta-pkg and using it as a DE for the RDP server ? Does it still require me to log out of my system ? [17:00] ubuntu-minimal is not a DE [17:01] xfce is a good solution, imo [17:03] me using xfce4 imo was the cause I was stuck at the login screen. [17:07] Hello all! Could anyone point me to any resource that would list expected outbound communications from Ubuntu Server 20.04? [17:18] easier is to list running services and check listening ports with netstat. [17:20] Understood. I was hoping there was a list of typical expected, but if that's the way to go, I appreciate the advice. I'll look into it, thank you cartdrige! [17:21] Renevant, by default there are no open ports on an ubuntu install [17:21] only apps you install later will open any ....

[19:46] Did you change servers on the vpn? [19:46] no [19:46] try that, that might work [19:46] goddard: nmcli [19:46] it doesn't have multiple servers [19:46] leftyfb: thanks [19:47] goddard: try a different vpn, could be the current one thats the issue [19:48] OpenCZ: appreciate that help but that isn't the issue [19:48] what protocol are u using [19:48] what VPN are u using [19:48] and how are u connecting [19:48] Example answer: Private Internet Access VPN, Connecting via TCP Port 80, OpenVPN [19:48] just need to know how to connect to an existing gnome vpn so i can debug myself because 20 questions problem won't work [19:48] its not a commerical vpn provider [19:49] Are you connecting via Terminal or Network Manager [19:49] before my upgrade i just used gnome shell [19:49] Ive never used GNome VPN [19:49] now it isn't working [19:49] Gnome shell as in Terminal? [19:50] its [19:50] nmcli con up VPNNAME [19:50] Ive never used that vpn method [19:50] Ive only used openvpn or wireguard [19:50] in terminal, or GUI VPN apps [19:50] RiverGolem1: it is openvpn [19:50] using nm [19:50] Whats nm [19:51] network manager [19:51] hmmm [19:51] hence nmcli [19:51] Goddard: so openvpn is having issues on ubuntu 22.04 on your part? [19:51] RiverGolem1: do you need help with something? [19:51] MAybe the .ovpn server config file is old [19:51] leftyfb, not really, just trying to help this mate [19:51] goddard: I would start looking through your NetworkManager logs [19:52] sometimes the vpn config files are re-made to account for new server certificates, settings etc [19:52] goddard: journalctl -fu NetworkManager # watch that while you connect [19:52] yep looks like its just a timeout [19:52] try downloading a fresh VPN config file [19:52] not as descriptive as i would hope for [19:52] Do you have an exotic firewall setup or Intrustion prevention ssystem, some endpoint security [19:52] RiverGolem1: we try to troubleshoot issues here as opposed to throwing out multiple assumed causes [19:52] Or custom DNS [19:53] These are possible issues he could be having [19:53] RiverGolem1: there an almost infinite number of possibilities. It's more helpful to troubleshoot the issue as opposed to naming possible causes [19:53] I do got one question though, why does openbox window manager glitch out on Ubuntu ( tried it with both 19.04 and 22.04 LTS ) or is it the configs being funny [19:53] example "ah yes I am using a custom DNS" which happens to not resolves IPs in a ceterain datacenter, etc [19:54] II dissagree with your troubleshooting method [19:54] Im covering all possible options [19:54] RiverGolem1: while ignoring the fact that goddard has already stated the issue [19:54] "just a timeout" isnt the answer [19:54] "just a timeout" is just the beginning, what is causing the timeout? [19:55] Network firewall, Local firewall, custom DNS, etc [19:55] ill wait untill this is finished [19:55] hence my questions [19:55] 'openbox window manager' how did u isntall it? [19:55] sudo apt-get install openbox [19:56] and the alternative command [19:56] Can Is ee a screenshot of the glitch [19:56] ill have to reinstall it [19:56] Perhaps OPenBox just isnt compatable with Ubuntu [19:56] RiverGolem1: I prefer to use actual troubleshooting steps like pinging the endpoint or trying to connect to it using a different device. It serves no purpose when you ask "are you running X firewall or Y security or Z DNS or LMNOP etc" There [19:57] Yeah it does [19:57] because those questions are open [19:57] There's troubleshooting and then there's spitballing [19:57] I dont have answers yet [19:57] Thats why I ask [19:57] i dont think its compatability issues, i think its an issue with config because fluxbox and blackbox works well, but i specificly want openbox for themes [19:57] Try updating your OpenVPN version [19:57] :/ [19:57] Usually the stock version is outdated [19:58] And yes, also ping the endpoint and try to connect from another device [19:58] ill be back [19:58] on the same, and a different network [19:58] goddard: do you require further assistance? [19:58] he is running latest LTS, so outdated openvpn software is unlikely [20:00] even latest LTS can have outdated packages, for exaple I had to update libfuse to get appimages to open [20:01] ok im back [20:01] i got the screenshot [20:02] leftyfb: i got the start of something but gotta figure out what changes between ubuntu version maybe before i completely just delete it and try to re-create it [20:03] anyone know if its possible to upload images here? [20:03] because i got the screenshot of openbox glitching [20:03] goddard: I would look further up in the logs. A timeout for vpn can happen even when auth or the handshake has failed [20:03] postimages OpenCZ [20:03] OpenCZ: imgur.com [20:03] thanks [20:03] link dat shiz [20:05] this is the link ( imgur ) should work: https://imgur.com/a/ewdrg6b [20:05] anyone noticed ubuntu 22.10 (kubuntu here to be exact) not booting into X? [20:05] cbreak: after an update? [20:06] I had to roll back to my update state from 2022.12.01, yes [20:06] I updated a few times since then, but didn't reboot until now [20:06] cbreak: look to see if an oracle kernel got installed [20:06] well, the rollback removed anything that happened :/ Is that a plausible option? [20:06] RiverGolem1: this is the image: https://imgur.com/a/ewdrg6b [20:07] Firstly, report that problem [20:07] maybe the devs can see and fix it [20:07] OpenCZ: YOU BEAT SOLITARE!

[20:07] OpenCZ: hehehehe [20:08] Try sending this screenshot to the OPenBox devs [20:09] ok, but the error message ive been getting for quite some time and keeps comin back [20:09] leftyfb: if it happens again, I'll take a look which kernel was booted === goddard1 is now known as goddard [20:12] could openbox be having a fit due to the kernel? [20:13] or is it just universal across ubuntu [20:13] OpenCZ: Remind us what platform you're running it on? [20:13] ran openbox on 22.04 and 19.04 [20:14] kernel version 5.0.0-40-gen [20:15] OpenCZ: ubuntu 19.04 is no longer supported. That one should be upgraded regardless [20:15] its for the laptop im using [20:15] its a bit crappy for 22.04 [20:15] as in low power? [20:15] 19.04 isn't going to be any better [20:16] Try Lubuntu, is works great on Low-spec laptops! Im using a Celeron N4500 CPU [20:16] OpenCZ: later versions do sometimes improve performance [20:16] its just barely fast enough [20:16] To run Windows 11, but Linux is perfect [20:16] OpenCZ: as for the 22.04, you should install linux-generic-hwe-22.04 [20:18] Can someone help me figure out why my games still run badly after installing nvidia drivers [20:19] desktop, op what specs, what ubuntu, and what game platform?

[20:22] from steam [20:22] leftyfb: about what [20:23] i tested it a few times on it [20:23] i think it might not even be using my graphics card [20:23] OpenCZ: the specs you gave will run a "modern linux distro" just fine. Regardless, it's offtopic here unless you want help with it [20:24] so the gameplatform is steam.. [20:24] desktop: open the "additional drivers" utility === john is now known as Guest8373 [20:24] leftyfb: okay, what now ? [20:24] sorry i must of gotten off topic and not realise it [20:25] desktop: what does it show you? [20:25] theres a list of all nvidia drivers [20:25] im currently using 515 proprietary [20:26] the game also get stuck on processing vulkan shaders and i have to skip it [20:26] then you're probably running through your GPU [20:26] desktop: maybe try a steam support chat? [20:27] i think i installed intel drivers somehow [20:28] unlikely, intel is supported in the kernel [20:28] and you have latest stable kernel.
