| jhutchins | bluesceada: What happens if you make a launcher to start it manually in gnome? | 01:53 |
| bluesceada | what launcher | 01:54 |
| jhutchins | bluesceada: Make one. | 01:54 |
| bluesceada | I can run it from shell, then I can "add to favorites", if I quit it and start it again from that, it won't launch | 01:54 |
| bluesceada | is that what you mean by launcher? | 01:54 |
| jhutchins | bluesceada: No. | 01:54 |
| jhutchins | bluesceada: Manually construct a launcher/shortcut icon on the desktop. I haven't used gnome, so I'm not sure what the process is, but it's pretty basic to running gnome. | 01:55 |
| bluesceada | I can't even find out what you mean | 01:55 |
| bluesceada | a desktop, what ok | 01:55 |
| jhutchins | bluesceada: Most of the desktops have some way to manually add a program either to the desktop or to the menu (or both). | 01:56 |
| bluesceada | I can probably make one of those .desktop files as a "launcher" i guess | 01:56 |
| bluesceada | but there is nothing like what you describe GUI-like | 01:56 |
| jhutchins | First hit on Google: https://docs.oracle.com/en/operating-systems/oracle-linux/6/accessibility/ol6-orca-launchapp.html | 01:57 |
| bluesceada | I guess gnome starts this file however /usr/share/applications/org.inkscape.Inkscape.desktop | 01:57 |
| bluesceada | jhutchins, that doesn't work here, it doesn't exit like described there | 01:58 |
| bluesceada | standard ubuntu 22.04 gnome | 01:58 |
| jhutchins | bluesceada: Well, you are on a Debian derivative, not a RedHat derivative. That wasn't the only hit on google, just the first. | 01:58 |
| bluesceada | *exit -> exist | 01:58 |
| bluesceada | anyway i guess i can just copy that desktop file, that launcher should be just that | 01:59 |
| jhutchins | bluesceada: Yeah, I used gnome once. It started processes that didn't shut down when the rest of it was killed. | 01:59 |
| jhutchins | bluesceada: All this automated stuff had to be done manually first by someone. | 02:00 |
| jhutchins | bluesceada: You have the power! | 02:00 |
| bluesceada | I know | 02:00 |
| bluesceada | i am not a rookie user | 02:00 |
| bluesceada | I just hoped somebody might know that glitch | 02:00 |
| bluesceada | actually at the moment KDE and Gnome seem to both are full of bugs in their ubuntu 22.04 versions | 02:01 |
| bluesceada | it is really annoying | 02:01 |
| bluesceada | jhutchins, same thing when launching from the desktop | 02:02 |
| bluesceada | Exec=inkscape %F | 02:02 |
| bluesceada | TryExec=inkscape | 02:02 |
| jhutchins | bluesceada: Ok, what if you make a shell script that launches it. | 02:02 |
| bluesceada | not a bad idea, ok let's see | 02:03 |
| bluesceada | first i try removing the %F | 02:03 |
| oerheks | remove the ~/.config/inkscape folder and try again? | 02:04 |
| bluesceada | ah and it says TargetEnvironment=Unity in the desktop file | 02:04 |
| bluesceada | oerheks, no, it works from shell | 02:04 |
| bluesceada | just not when launched from gnome | 02:04 |
| jhutchins | bluesceada: Yes, do EXACTLY what works from the shell command prompt. | 02:04 |
| oerheks | why launching a gui from shell? | 02:04 |
| jhutchins | oerheks: gui doesn't launch from gui. | 02:04 |
| oerheks | so, remove .config/inkscape and try again? that often fixes weird startups | 02:05 |
| oerheks | gui doesn't launch from gui .. funny gguy | 02:05 |
| bluesceada | ok with a simple as possible desktop file it also doesnt | 02:06 |
| bluesceada | oerheks, gnome is so messed up in the version that comes with ubuntu 22.04 .... | 02:06 |
| oerheks | i think you should already had that desktop file. | 02:07 |
| bluesceada | mv .config/inkscape .config/inkscape_bck | 02:07 |
| bluesceada | oerheks, yes but I made a simplified one to test if the desktop file is the bug | 02:07 |
| bluesceada | wow | 02:07 |
| bluesceada | ok | 02:07 |
| bluesceada | now I get a first-start welcome dialog | 02:07 |
| bluesceada | but as soon as the main program should start (clicking the last button in it) that dialog is frozen -.- | 02:08 |
| bluesceada | https://imgur.com/a/AqzhViM | 02:09 |
| bluesceada | terminal=True in the desktop file also doesn't help ... now let's try an actual shell script with /bin/sh | 02:11 |
| bluesceada | Ok and when I put a shell script on the desktop and use "run as program" I also get the same shortly existing broken inkscape process | 02:13 |
| bluesceada | gnome must add some env variables that inkscape can't handle I guess ... | 02:14 |
| eb3095-Vultr | Heya guys, Vultr here. We got multiple DCs claiming low repo speeds on updates/installs. Something up? | 02:25 |

| Macwinner | If I want to update a setting in /etc/systemd/journald.conf, is it best practice to do it directly in that file? or is there a way to do it in an override file so I'm not messing with the default files on the system | 02:27 |
| === chris14_ is now known as chris14 | ||
| hao | I just know that there is a alternative to dict/dictd -- dialect, been searching for a good translation app | 02:27 |

| dsc_ | archive.ubuntu.com incredibly slow, or only me? | 02:28 |
| bluesceada | Macwinner, read the header of the file itself | 02:28 |

| dsc_ | hmm, fast again... | 02:28 |
| Macwinner | oh, haha.. sorry | 02:28 |
| Macwinner | thanks | 02:28 |
| bluesceada | [....] Local configuration should be created by either modifying this file, or by creating "drop-ins" in the journald.conf.d/ subdirectory. The latter is generally recommended. [....] | 02:28 |
| LjL | hao, package name? | 02:29 |
| bluesceada | meaning in /etc/systemd/journald.conf.d/ | 02:29 |
| hao | dialect | 02:29 |
| hao | trying it now | 02:29 |
| dsc_ | sarnold: how fast does this download for you? http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ls-lR.gz | 02:29 |
| LjL | hao, ah, seen it. keep in mind by default it uses Google Translate, and in any case even if using LibreTranslate, it's still online translation, while dict/dictd can be run locally. | 02:30 |
| sarnold | dsc_: hah, of the three mirrors in DNS right now, only one of them responded, and it only served 1.8M :( curl --resolve archive.ubuntu.com:91.189.91.39:80 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ls-lR.gz | 02:32 |
| dsc_ | sarnold: yep :) | 02:32 |
| hao | yeah, bit disappointed, but nice UI | 02:32 |
| hao | even good if it can be integrated with system search and trigger anywhere by shortcut, like in MacOS | 02:33 |
| webchat52 | Is anyone else seeing issues with archive.ubuntu.org for the past hour or so? It's been timing out quite a lot for us. | 02:34 |
| dsc_ | webchat52: yes | 02:34 |
| LjL | hao, you can try Apertium for a completely open source and local (offline) translator, but it's based on a different mechanism and unless you're translating between similar languages (its main use cases), it will generally have much worse output quality than something like Google Translate or even LibreTranslate | 02:34 |
| sarnold | webchat52: yeah they're unhappy | 02:35 |
| oerheks | still no mentioning here https://status.canonical.com/ | 02:36 |

| Guest14 | If there's a package that you want to install which is a newer version of software you already have installed but the package manager doesn't make it available yet what do you do? | 02:48 |
| sarnold | Guest14: install it from snap or flatpak or appimage, or build it yourself, or run it in a VM or container or something | 02:50 |
| sarnold | dsc_: honestly, probably best to grab a coffee or something at the moment.. | 02:51 |
| Guest14 | do apt/snap/flatpak/appimage all install to the same locations (e.g., /usr/bin/someSoftware)? | 02:52 |
| Guest14 | What about if you download .deb and/or source and compiler and install to default location -- does it go in /usr/bin ? Wouldn't the various installations overwrite one another/collide? | 02:53 |
| sarnold | Guest14: no, they go to different places | 02:54 |
| Guest14 | apt installs binaries in /usr/bin doesn't it? | 02:54 |
| sarnold | Guest14: a lot of projects have ./configure scripts or whatever that default to /usr/local/bin. but you'd have to read the documentation | 02:54 |
| sarnold | Guest14: apt installs binaries wherever the package tells it to. the package itself is 100% in control of that. | 02:54 |
| sarnold | Guest14: some vendors prepare deb packages that install into /opt | 02:55 |
| Guest14 | what's the difference between installing in /usr/bin/ and /usr/local/bin ? /usr/local/bin implies that you probably compiled from source? | 02:55 |
| Guest14 | ' | 02:55 |
| rbox | there is no difference | 02:55 |
| Guest14 | if there's no difference then why have two different install locations? | 02:56 |
| dsc_ | sarnold: would have expected more people to show up here | 02:57 |
| dsc_ | I guess 80% is still in 'why is it not working' mode | 02:57 |
| rbox | Guest14: there are infinite install locations | 02:57 |
| oerheks | there are slight differences .. https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/8663 | 02:57 |

| Guest76 | hello i experienced packages download issues | 03:01 |
| Guest76 | I am lived in Japan so using jp.archive.ubuntu.com, but now these domain has routed to three unique IPs in United Kingdom and too slow. | 03:01 |
| Guest76 | Other people reported same issue. Anyone knows this problem or experienced? (sorry for poor english) | 03:01 |
| mybalzitch | Guest76: I'm having similar issues with the canadian archive. I think canonical is working on something and stuff is broken temporarily as a result | 03:01 |
| dsc_ | yes, I'm also experiencing problems | 03:01 |
| oerheks | still no mentioning here https://status.canonical.com/ | 03:02 |
| lotuspsychje | i also got a slow updates on .be this morning | 03:02 |
| sarnold | apparently the site247 check is using a small package, so it's easy for it to miss problems :( | 03:03 |
| Guest14 | If I have two different versions of a program installed, perhaps one in /usr/bin and another in /usr/local/bin couldn't they rely upon or interact with files installed in /usr/share or /usr/lib/ or /var or wherever? And couldn't they get confused about whose files are in those locations? | 03:03 |
| sarnold | Guest14: they could; in that case it'd be worth a bug report to the project to tell that the install prefix didn't work as expected -- include the exact command lines to reproduce the problem | 03:04 |
| Guest14 | If the program is written to check /var/someResource OrIfNotFound (/var/local/someResource) and the /usr/bin/myProgram overwrote the former and the /usr/local/bin/myhProgram did also it seems like a nightmare | 03:06 |
| sarnold | that's why most programs don't do that | 03:06 |
| sarnold | they have one installation destination | 03:06 |
| sarnold | and they check that, and only that | 03:06 |
| bluesceada | GDK_BACKEND=wayland is the problem that gnome adds to inkscape, it doesn't work with that env variable | 03:06 |
| sarnold | bluesceada: *wow* | 03:06 |
| bluesceada | it adds that I guess to everything that is launched from gnome-shell | 03:07 |
| sarnold | bluesceada: when you start it by hand in a terminal that env var is missing, and inkscape works? o_O | 03:07 |
| bluesceada | no it isn't missing, it is "x11" for some reason | 03:07 |
| bluesceada | but it is not in my .profile or .bashrc set like that | 03:07 |
| bluesceada | no idea where it comes from | 03:08 |
| bluesceada | (I am actually using wayland) | 03:08 |
| bluesceada | ok actually it is only in the terminal emulator I use (tilix) | 03:09 |
| bluesceada | ok, inkscape also doesn't launch from gnome-terminal - there the variable is not set at all | 03:09 |
| bluesceada | interesting | 03:09 |
| sarnold | iirc gnome-terminal is spawned from a systemd user instance | 03:09 |
| Guest76 | mybalzitch i wonder it fixes early because this problem also affected in CI/CD | 03:10 |
| bluesceada | actually I can't say for sure then - I didn't check if GDK_BACKEND=wayland is set at all | 03:10 |
| bluesceada | I just thought wayland must be set from gnome-shell, it might also be nothing set | 03:10 |
| bluesceada | running the kde konsole, it is also not set | 03:10 |
| bluesceada | I am somehow lucky it is set in tilix, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to work with inkscape today | 03:11 |
| bluesceada | HAHAHA I know why it is set in tilix - it also isn't full wayland compatible and I followed their setup guide sometime before: https://gnunn1.github.io/tilix-web/manual/quake/ | 03:14 |
| sarnold | bluesceada: aha! | 03:15 |
| sarnold | bluesceada: I was having trouble figuring how the variable would have been set "incorrectly".. unset, that made sense :) but wrong? heh | 03:15 |
| jimc | Are others experiencing slowness downloading from the Ubuntu update servers, or is there something goofy with my configuration? | 03:16 |
| dsc_ | jimc: yes, welcome to the club ^^ | 03:16 |
| jimc | I figured... :) | 03:17 |
| bluesceada | sarnold, I mean why not set it if wayland is actually running, but probably GDK can determine it itself | 03:18 |
| sarnold | bluesceada: perhaps the X11 code has to do a bunch of extra work or something? I'm not sure.. | 03:22 |
| bluesceada | I didn't find something directly that inkscape wouldn't be wayland compatible, that's what i find strange | 03:23 |
| bluesceada | btw I am using the deb package, not the snap, maybe nobody cares about it anymore, but it was updated in March... | 03:25 |

| Dave92f1 | Hi all. Is there a simple way to create desktop shortcuts to URLs? I'd like to be able to drag the address bar onto the desktop to create a shortcut to the current web page in Chrome (used to this working this way in WIndows). Is there a way? | 04:03 |
| Dave92f1 | If I drag the address bar (from Chrome) onto the desktop I get a menu "Copy here" or "Symlink here". Choosing either one does...nothing. Why? (And what's the difference?) | 04:11 |
| rbox | well if it does nothing, sounds like there is no difference | 04:11 |
| Dave92f1 | rbox: Sorry, I meant hypothetically if it worked, what's the difference? | 04:12 |
| rbox | well if it worked, then you'd be able to see the difference... | 04:12 |
| Dave92f1 | rbox: Fair enough. So...why doesn't it work? And what's the way to make it work? | 04:13 |
| rbox | sounds like a bug | 04:13 |
| rbox | probably by fixing the bug | 04:13 |
| Dave92f1 | rbox: Does it work for you? For other people? | 04:13 |
| rbox | i have neither chrome nor a desktop to drag things onto | 04:14 |
| Dave92f1 | rbox: Well, thanks for the help then. | 04:14 |
| WaV | Dave92f1: I did not have the two options you were talking about. | 04:33 |

| keyvan | is anyone else experiencing extremely slow access to the official apt mirrors? | 05:00 |
| luks_father | If I want to dd a LUKS partition (not a whole disk image) from one SSD to another, my understanding is that I need to first create an identically sized partition on the destination drive. Can this placeholder partition be unformatted/ext4/whatever? If it needs to be a LUKS partition, can I use any random placeholder key/pass attributes, or do I have to recreate particular things about the source container before cloning it? | 05:07 |
| rbox | dd copies bytes | 05:09 |
| rbox | what is on the partition before you write to it with dd is irrelvent | 05:09 |
| luks_father | right, but I'm wondering if there's going to be metadata about the placeholder partition outside of it, like in the partition table, that will be mismatched after the clone | 05:11 |
| luks_father | All the examples I see of people doing this seem to be way more elaborate than "just create any old partition of the correct size, then dd over it" | 05:12 |

| Cyber100 | Hi guys, how can I enhance my Ubuntu OS security, I already update daily, and have a firewall enabled. What else can I do? Specifically interested in enhanced exploit-resilience such as sandboxing Firefox, for example. I don't want to go full Whonix/Qubes etc. | 09:41 |
| arrayboltXE | Cyber100: If you're using Ubuntu 22.04, Firefox is already sandboxed as a Snap. | 09:46 |
| Cyber100 | great | 09:46 |
| Cyber100 | Do you guys think Lubuntu will be updated years from now? it's my favorite OS. | 09:46 |
| arrayboltXE | My best recommendation for hardening Ubuntu... is to not try to harden it. Really. You can make security worse trying to fiddle with things. Ubuntu is designed for enterprise use, and is already quite secure. | 09:46 |
| arrayboltXE | As for Lubuntu, AFAIK, it will still be around years from now. I'm a Lubuntu Developer and we have no intention of stopping any time soon. :) | 09:47 |
| arrayboltXE | Cyber100: Generally, what I do if I feel something needs extra sandboxing, is I just power on a VM and do whatever I need to do in there. Works great for safe web browsing in my experience. Other than that, everything's pretty much left in an out-of-the-box configuration. | 09:48 |
| arrayboltXE | I usually use GNOME Boxes as my virtualization software. | 09:50 |
| Cyber100 | nice | 09:56 |
| Cyber100 | What are the minimum system specs for Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS | 10:01 |
| Cyber100 | I have only 4 gigs of ram lol | 10:01 |
| Cyber100 | oh it says right there | 10:02 |
| arrayboltXE | Ubuntu Desktop itself has somewhat high specs - I've found it to be uncomfortable with 4 GB RAM, though still usable. You'd definitely want a good-sized swapfile, possibly one larger than the default one. | 10:03 |
| arrayboltXE | Flavors of Ubuntu (like Lubuntu and Xubuntu) may have lower requirements (Lubuntu in particular runs quite well in 4 GB RAM). | 10:03 |
| arrayboltXE | (And Xubuntu should also.) | 10:03 |
| cartdrige | You can add more swap memory especially if you have SSD or high speed storage. | 10:12 |
| cartdrige | 4 GB RAM + 8 GB fast SWAP, and you can play your favorite frozen bubble with no lag. | 10:14 |

| gjolly | Habbie what do you mean by broken? I am getting 30 MB/s down from this mirror on my instance in westeurope. Do you know in which Azure location the runners are located? How do you know it's a mirror issue and not just an problem with the workers? | 12:15 |
| Habbie | it's a mirror issue because ubuntu staff confirmed it to me and i hear it from lots of github users | 12:15 |

| BluesKaj | Hi all | 12:49 |
| csierra | so I have prevented the wifi driver from loading, after what poddus say, and my system has been stable since then. No more sudden reboots, and I have been pushing it hard to try to cause the reboot again. | 13:15 |
| csierra | the funny thing is that my wifi driver is not any of the wifi drivers that poddus listed in the bug report | 13:16 |
| csierra | does anybody know how could I gather debug information about the interaction between the kernel and the wifi driver? the only thing I can see in the kernel.log at the moment is corruption (a lot of ^@ signs) and the new boot information | 13:18 |

| cbreak | hey all, I still have problems with firefox on ubuntu | 14:01 |
| cbreak | because of snap, I think | 14:01 |
| cbreak | I can not open files outside my home directory with it | 14:02 |
| cbreak | is it possible to allow firefox to open files that are not in the home dir? | 14:03 |
| ogra | cbreak, it usually uses xdg-portals top open anything outside of your home | 14:03 |
| ogra | do you have the matching debs installed with your desktop ? | 14:03 |
| ogra | (if there is no portal it falls back to the snap home interface that only allows opening non-hidden files from home indeed) | 14:04 |
| cbreak | ogra: I just drag & drop the file into the firefox window | 14:13 |
| cbreak | it works if the file is somewhere in my homedir, but not if it's outside | 14:13 |
| cbreak | entering the file:///path into the address bar also doesn't work | 14:13 |
| ogra | well, again ... xdg portals should handle that | 14:13 |
| cbreak | it doesn't seem to handle anything | 14:14 |
| ogra | file:/// will liely not use portals though | 14:14 |
| cbreak | the only way that seems to work is to navigate to the file in the file open dialog | 14:14 |
| ogra | *likely | 14:14 |
| cbreak | but that dialog looks atrocious, and is not pleasant to navigate | 14:14 |
| ogra | right, then portls work for you | 14:14 |
| ogra | file a bug at mozilla for the drag/drop | 14:14 |
| ogra | it *should* use portals too, it probably doesnt | 14:15 |
| cbreak | I have seen the same problem with other snaps | 14:15 |
| cbreak | like slack | 14:15 |
| ogra | no idea about other snaps ... portal integration is up to the snap maintainer | 14:15 |
| cbreak | only that with slack, not even the file open dialog works | 14:15 |
| cbreak | I have to copy all data into ~/Downloads or similar, for me to be able to do anything with it | 14:16 |
| ogra | right, looks lik it has n portal integration at all then | 14:16 |
| ogra | *no | 14:16 |
| ravage | cbreak: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1786533 | 14:16 |
| -ubottu:#ubuntu- Mozilla bug 1786533 in Firefox Build System "Dragging and dropping an image from the firefox snap to an external application doesn't work" [S3, Unconfirmed] | 14:16 | |
| ogra | file an issue with slack then ... it is really up to them to enable portal support in their snap | 14:16 |
| cbreak | is it not possible to just fix snap? | 14:16 |
| cbreak | it should not fuck up file access for no reason | 14:17 |
| ogra | not a snap issue, it is a portal issue | 14:17 |
| cbreak | hmm :/ | 14:17 |
| cbreak | it seems very much caused by snap | 14:17 |
| ogra | sure, bt the fix has to happen in the portals | 14:17 |
| zs | I had two drives C: and D:, I installed ubuntu from windows 11, now I don't see drive D: visible anywhere in my computer. (I checked box "Erase data while installing ubuntu") | 14:17 |
| ravage | zs: open "disks" and see if your can find it there | 14:18 |
| cbreak | ogra: with lxc, I could mount locations into the container, if I want to expose them | 14:18 |
| cbreak | is that not possible with snap? | 14:18 |
| cbreak | I suppose I could bind-mount everything into my home dir... :/ | 14:18 |
| ogra | cbreak, you can indeed bind-mount locations into your home dir somewhere | 14:18 |
| ogra | heh, *snap* | 14:19 |
| cbreak | seems kind of hacky though | 14:19 |
| ogra | 🙂 | 14:19 |
| cbreak | ravage: thanks! | 14:19 |
| zs | ravage, Yes I can see there some space used like SDA3 226 GB / 250 GB. | 14:19 |
| ravage | zs: and what exactly do you want to do? access the data? format it? | 14:20 |
| zs | I want to access the data, that was very important. | 14:20 |
| zs | ravage, | 14:20 |
| ravage | so select it and mount it. with the "play" button | 14:21 |
| ravage | but the files app should also find it at "other locations" | 14:22 |
| cbreak | ravage: I think the problem in that ticket is the opposite, but probably related | 14:22 |
| ogra | cbreak, same thing ... both directions should be handled by he portal | 14:23 |
| ogra | something is wrong there ... since both dirctions do not work | 14:23 |
| ravage | i find a lot of drag&drop bugs. some say it only affects wayland like https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1729901 | 14:24 |
| -ubottu:#ubuntu- Mozilla bug 1729901 in Core "[Snap] Drag&drop is not working when trying to open a link from other apps on Ubuntu 21.04" [S3, New] | 14:24 | |
| ravage | i guess you have to find the right one for you or open a new one | 14:24 |
| cbreak | well, it most certainly does not only affect wayland, since I don't use that | 14:24 |
| ogra | display server does not matter here | 14:25 |
| ogra | if portals are installed (which they should on all modern desktops) they will be used, regardless of what you use to display your screen | 14:26 |
| zs | ravage, "unmount selected partition" <=== this is hover msg | 14:27 |
| ravage | zs: then its already mounted. check the files app | 14:34 |
| zs | In the files app, it shows only "Computer". | 14:34 |
| zs | ravage, | 14:35 |
| zs | Did I lose all the data by checking the box erase and install ubuntu? | 14:35 |
| zs | Let me rephrase my question: I had two partitions C: and D: on windows 11, so when I was installing ubuntu I checked box erase and install. Is it possible that I could lost all my data by checking erase and install option? Normally in windows when we erase data it erases only C: where windows is copied.. | 14:37 |
| zs | ravage, | 14:38 |
| Habbie | that seems likely, yes, sorry to hear :( | 14:38 |
| Habbie | it is possible that recovery tools can still find things | 14:40 |
| Habbie | as ubuntu will not have actually overwritten the whole disk | 14:40 |
| zs | Habbie, How to recover please guide | 14:41 |
| Habbie | i cannot help you with that | 14:41 |
| ravage | if it was one drive with 2 paritions ubuntu did excatly what you asked for | 14:42 |
| ravage | it erased the drive. -> both partitions gone | 14:42 |
| Habbie | i only now realise zs was referring to a "ravage" person, not to the situation | 14:42 |
| Habbie | ravage, coming from windows, i can understand the confusion, though | 14:42 |
| ravage | a drive is always a drive :) | 14:42 |
| oerheks | one could try testdisk on a live iso, but after installing ubuntu i guess your data is gone. https://www.simplified.guide/linux/disk-recover-partition-table | 14:56 |
| oerheks | if you had no backup, your data is not important. | 14:56 |
| geosmile | did apt+ubuntu have an outage recently? Some of my last night apt update/upgrade inside docker containers had failed | 15:07 |

| agopo | Hi, I updated to ubuntu 22.04.1. Since then, the nameserver is messed up in that I cant resolve domains anymore. Ping heise.de won't work, ping 8.8.8.8 on the other hand does. Is this a known bug after upgrading? How do I solve tihs? | 16:08 |
| alkisg | agopo: what's the output of: (cat /etc/resolv.conf; ls -l /etc/resolv.conf) | nc termbin.com 9999 | 16:13 |
| agopo | alkisg, https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/cxHRh3P8Rs/ | 16:17 |
| alkisg | agopo: whoops sorry forgot, bad dns means that nc termbin.com won't work :D | 16:18 |
| alkisg | And the output of this: ls -l /etc/resolv.conf | 16:18 |
| alkisg | If it's just 1 or 2 lines, you can paste directly; for more, use pastebins | 16:19 |
| agopo | lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 Jan 13 17:03 /etc/resolv.conf -> /run/resolvconf/resolv.conf | 16:19 |
| ogra | yeah, that is definitely wrong | 16:19 |
| alkisg | agopo: have you been upgading this system from 16.04? | 16:19 |
| agopo | alki, yes, but over the course of years | 16:19 |
| agopo | I started out on 16.04 though | 16:20 |
| agopo | thtat's correct | 16:20 |
| ogra | looks like you still have the (deprecated) resolvconf package installed | 16:20 |
| alkisg | OK, the upgrader never removed resolvconf, but that's not used anymore | 16:20 |
| alkisg | Let's do it manually | 16:20 |
| alkisg | sudo apt purge resolvconf | 16:20 |
| agopo | alkisg, I'm following | 16:20 |
| alkisg | sudo ln -sf ../run/systemd/resolve/stub-resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf | 16:21 |
| alkisg | Then reboot for good measure, and come back to see how are things | 16:21 |
| agopo | Roger | 16:21 |
| agopo | The server is back up. Still can't resolve heise.de though | 16:23 |
| alkisg | What's the output of cat /etc/resolv.conf now? | 16:23 |
| agopo | https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/7yjV2P8pDs/ | 16:24 |
| alkisg | That's good. First, lets fix dns temporarily just so that you're able to use termbin | 16:25 |
| alkisg | sudo nano /etc/resolv.conf => and change 127.0.0.53 with 8.8.8.8, save with ctrl+o, exit with ctrl+x | 16:25 |
| alkisg | Then let's see how you're connecting to the internet, e.g. with ifupdown, network-manager, netplan etc | 16:25 |
| alkisg | What's the output of nmcli | nc termbin.com 9999 | 16:26 |
| agopo | domains can be resolved right now | 16:26 |
| agopo | So that worked | 16:26 |
| jhutchins | You could just specify the remote DNS server. dig @8.8.8.8 heise.de | 16:26 |
| agopo | nmcli isnt installed | 16:27 |
| jhutchins | I have often seen ISP DNS servers fall out of sync and fail to resolve some (but not all) domains. | 16:27 |
| jhutchins | agopo: Are you resolving _any_ domains? | 16:27 |
| alkisg | agopo: ok, so not network manager. Is that a desktop or a server? | 16:27 |
| agopo | Its a Contabo VPS | 16:28 |
| alkisg | agopo: output of this? cat /etc/network/interfaces | nc termbin.com 9999 | 16:28 |
| agopo | alkisg, https://termbin.com/sebk | 16:28 |
| agopo | jhutchins, it didnt resolve any domains first, but after manually editing /etc/resolv.conf it does | 16:29 |
| alkisg | Indeed you're using the ... let's call it deprecated in ubuntu, ifupdown | 16:29 |
| alkisg | Newer ubuntu server installations default to netplan, with a systemd-networkd backend | 16:30 |
| alkisg | One quick way is to just rm /etc/resolv.conf, and create a new one with the contents you desire; noone will touch that | 16:30 |
| alkisg | While if you want to emulate a "new clean ubuntu 22.04 server" installation, it's a longer road | 16:30 |
| nunya | how do i get an .sh file to open on double click from the Desktop. I can get it to open from the file manager and by right clicking it on the Desktop and choosing run as program but I would prefer double clicking the file on the Desktop. | 16:30 |
| agopo | If I choose the fast path and later upgrade to the next ubuntu version, will DNS break again? | 16:31 |
| jhutchins | nunya: What do you mean by "open"? Do you want the script to run, or to see the contents of the file? | 16:31 |
| alkisg | agopo: presumably no, but there's no guarantee that related programs won't be deprecated to the point that they're not installed anymore | 16:31 |
| alkisg | agopo: I would guess that ifupdown won't go away for at least 1-2 more LTS releases though :) | 16:32 |
| nunya | jhutchins: Iwant the script in the sh file to run. | 16:32 |
| agopo | that equals to 4-8 years, right? | 16:33 |
| agopo | I'll choose the easy way tonight | 16:33 |
| agopo | Got a naggy gf and lamps to install | 16:33 |
| alkisg | agopo: 2-4 years, but it's just a guess | 16:33 |
| alkisg | agopo: these are very good reasons to choose the fast way, I agree :) | 16:33 |
| agopo | So: rm /etc/resolv.conf; then edit /etc/resolv.conf and put in nameserver 8.8.8.8 | 16:34 |
| agopo | correct? | 16:34 |
| ogra | yeah, lamps are always important ! | 16:34 |
| alkisg | agopo: yup | 16:34 |
| agopo | Will do | 16:34 |

| nunya | At least you have a girlfriend. | 16:34 |

| ioria | on3pk, ps -ef | egrep multipass | 18:54 |
| on3pk | ioria what should I look for in that output? | 18:57 |
| ioria | on3pk, just if the daemon is running | 18:58 |
| ioria | on3pk, then try to kill it and restart : sudo pkill multipassd | 18:58 |
| on3pk | I restarted the service (snap restart multipass) and it's still pending the restart | 19:01 |
| ogra | on3pk, you should probably ask in #multipass 😉 | 19:03 |
| arrayboltXE | Does anyone here have any idea why Flatpak's progress indicators are so wildly inaccurate on Ubuntu? | 19:03 |
| on3pk | oh there's a multipass channel? I didn't know. | 19:03 |
| ogra | on3pk, (though i fear by now pople from there are ending/have ended their work day) | 19:04 |
| arrayboltXE | Looks like this bug: https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/issues/3448 I guess that answers that question. I should file a bug report. | 19:04 |

| ogra | *seems | 19:06 |
| ogra | perhaps you should just re-open it 😛 | 19:06 |
| cbreak | zs: have you run `lsblk`? | 19:18 |
| jhutchins | Accurate progress indicators! A myth held over from the 20th century. | 19:20 |
| cbreak | or rather `lsblk --fs` | 19:20 |

| calamari | If I run a program locally, it shows up in the system tray/indicator applet. However, if I run it on a remote machine via "ssh -X", it doesn't (I'm also running it with dbus-launch which got notifications working). Any ideas? | 19:38 |
| kubuntu | hi guys, what is the best pratice to format a usb stick for an ubuntu usb installer? | 19:47 |
| kubuntu | GUID + ExtFat? | 19:47 |
| calamari | kubuntu: If I'm understanding correctly, then you shouldn't need to format it as the Ubuntu ISO will replace the contents of the usb flash drive | 19:50 |
| calamari | kubuntu: or are you trying to create some kind of custom installer? | 19:52 |
| kubuntu | I usually use whale to create bootable usb, but I don't remember where I read that it was a good practice to format it before feeding it to etcher | 19:52 |
| calamari | kubuntu: you can use Rufus: https://rufus.ie/en/ | 19:53 |
| kubuntu | ok thanks | 19:54 |
| kubuntu | what is the best practice? | 19:54 |
| kubuntu | gpt ntfs? | 19:55 |
| matsaman | NTFS is involved in zero best practices =) | 19:55 |
| kubuntu | im on ubuntu | 19:55 |
| matsaman | kubuntu: what're you trying to do? | 19:55 |
| ravage | if you are on ubuntu use "startup disk creator" | 19:56 |
| ravage | it comes with ubuntu | 19:56 |
| calamari | kubuntu: ahh when you said "format" I assumed you were on Windows. | 19:57 |
| kubuntu | guys i'm installing omv but it's been ages since i created a bootable usb and i don't remember how to format it anymore...i worked for 10 years on osx and i finally made up my mind and switched to ubuntu :-D | 19:57 |
| calamari | I usually just use dd, but that might not be best practice anymore, as you need to be careful about the destination | 19:58 |
| kubuntu | but i'm still impractical i used to go to disk utility then etcher | 19:58 |
| hao | kubuntu, https://ubuntu.com/tutorials/create-a-usb-stick-on-ubuntu#1-overview | 19:58 |
| kubuntu | I don't know how to do it on ubuntu | 19:58 |
| kubuntu | thank you hao, but i would like to know what is the best parameters | 19:59 |
| matsaman | kubuntu: omv? | 20:00 |
| kubuntu | for partition map and format | 20:00 |
| kubuntu | open media vault | 20:00 |
| matsaman | regular Ubuntu will work fine as a NAS | 20:00 |
| matsaman | what is it you want to use OMV for that you think Ubuntu won't provide? | 20:01 |
| kubuntu | I switched to open source and now I'm trying to make the whole house open-> ovm+home assistant+ kodi + mycroft :D | 20:01 |
| kubuntu | omv is for nas | 20:01 |
| matsaman | NAS is such a buzzword is all. It basically means "horrible proprietary hard to customize Linux OS ... with storage attached to the network" | 20:01 |
| matsaman | if you just attach storage to an ordinary GNU/Linux, you have storage attached to a network | 20:02 |
| kubuntu | ahahaha nice definition | 20:02 |
| kubuntu | iz true! | 20:02 |
| matsaman | there's not going to be any software available to OMV that isn't available to any normal GNU/Linux distro | 20:02 |
| kubuntu | no I got an old computer with i3 ssd and some ram on asus motherboard and I'm installing everything myself | 20:03 |
| FKAShinobi_ | Which UUID does fstab use - The partition UUID or the filesystem UUID? | 20:03 |
| matsaman | maybe it comes preconfigured quite helpfully, but that's a small thing | 20:03 |
| matsaman | FKAShinobi_: fs for file system, but | 20:03 |
| matsaman | FKAShinobi_: set a label on your filesystems | 20:03 |
| matsaman | UUIDs are for robots | 20:03 |
| matsaman | LABELs are for humans | 20:03 |
| matsaman | LABEL=whatever in fstab, e2label, etc. | 20:04 |
| matsaman | partuuid would be used more by things like GRUB, IIRC | 20:04 |
| FKAShinobi_ | matsaman: I like it, I'll do just that! Thanks! | 20:04 |
| calamari | FKAShinobi_: https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-newbie-8/fstab-uuid-vs-partuuid-4175678376/#post6143152 | 20:04 |
| matsaman | kubuntu: anyway, I would probably use dd as another person suggested, you just have to be careful as to the output | 20:06 |
| matsaman | nothing wrong with using a GUI app for it, though | 20:06 |
| matsaman | but again I also wouldn't use an OS custom built for "NAS" | 20:06 |
| matsaman | I would use my normal GNU/Linux, with storage attached to it =P | 20:07 |
| matsaman | all the same ways of sharing that storage over the network will be available | 20:07 |
| kubuntu | ahaha ok thx for suggest | 20:07 |
| kubuntu | Can I ask you advice about docker too | 20:07 |
| kubuntu | what do u think about it? | 20:07 |
| hao | kubuntu, their official doc actually just suggested one bs=4096, don't actually know what makes your 'best parameters' | 20:08 |
| matsaman | kubuntu: it's trash _and_ nonsense | 20:09 |
| matsaman | kubuntu: serious people who actually have a use case use lxc or the like | 20:09 |
| matsaman | if you have to use docker, it will work better on GNU/Linux than macOS or Windows, but it's still trash & nonsense both | 20:09 |
| matsaman | upstream is horrible | 20:10 |
| === Guest6804 is now known as linuxmodder | ||
| kubuntu | ok thanks guys | 20:12 |
| matsaman | kubuntu: what do you think you'd use docker for? | 20:13 |
| kubuntu | docker to install home assistant on docker in omv | 20:17 |
| kubuntu | but I'm afraid you'll tell me that's a bad idea... XD | 20:17 |
| matsaman | it's not a bad idea, it's just awful =P | 20:18 |
| matsaman | it will probably work, it will definitely work better than docker on another OS | 20:18 |
| matsaman | but the way docker is used most places is you replace an ordinary software installation with several entire virtualized operating systems | 20:18 |
| matsaman | and frequently because the ordinary software is actually a huge mess that is next to impossible to install and end users can't stand trying to install it | 20:18 |
| matsaman | and it's just a big mess, a house of cards | 20:19 |

| konrados | Hey, on a remote server I want to use ufw and to enable that. It says, that ssh session will be interrupted. I'm a bit worried, that then I won't be able to get in. I know it's a stupid question, but can I make sure I will be able? `ufw app list` lists the OpenSSH, is it enough guarantee? | 20:50 |
| hermano | Does anyone has a "apple magic trackpad 2" paired with Ubuntu 22.04? May article states I should hold in a button to activate pairing, but my device only has a physical toggle switch. | 20:51 |
| WaV | konrados: sudo ufw allow whateverport && sudo ufw enable | 20:52 |
| hermano | Bluetooth is activated in Ubuntu 22.04 and the trackpad works with lightning cable. | 20:52 |
| jpmh | I set my swapfile up so that I could hibernate, set my /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume - with all that was needed and all ran well for months. Today it stopped, I discovered that my /swapfile has moved. What moved it? As far as I know I have made no system changes in weeks? | 20:52 |
| oerheks | hermano, maybe pressing somewhere on the trackpad , it is one huge button? | 20:52 |
| leftyfb | konrados: I would recommend having out of band access | 20:52 |
| konrados | WaV - thanks! so `sudo ufw allow 22 && sudo ufw enable` right? | 20:52 |
| oerheks | sudo ufw allow ssh | 20:53 |
| konrados | leftyfb, what is band access? o.O | 20:53 |
| WaV | konrados: yes, or what oerheks said | 20:53 |
| jpmh | konrados: if really paranoid - set yourself a second ssh session on a different port - while testing | 20:53 |
| konrados | ok, thanks oerheks & WaV & jpmh - and yeah, I'm paranoid a bit :) | 20:53 |
| WaV | konrados: you may not even lose connection. Open a second terminal after you do those commands and see if you can connect. If so, then all is well. | 20:53 |
| konrados | ok | 20:54 |
| oerheks | there is a short list, depending on the apps installed; ufw app list | 20:54 |
| jpmh | konrados: I like the paranid approach when the risk is bricking a machine | 20:54 |
| konrados | :) | 20:55 |
| FKAShinobi | I just installed the recent set of updates for 22.04 and lost my ability to have static ip and DNS set by router. I now have to hard code them. This is for IPv4. | 21:06 |
| * tMH is gone. nsf | 21:06 | |
| oerheks | weird, static ip and DNS set by router should rule | 21:08 |
| FKAShinobi | oerheks - I've tried everything and it won't recognize. As soon as i typed them in, all was well. As another data point, I've disabled IPv6 on that machine. | 21:09 |

| chomp | sorry for that | 21:23 |
| oerheks | i read " Radeon Rx6400 Adding amdgpu.aspm=0 to kernel option makes my Rx 6400 work fine. " last post on https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=277292 | 21:24 |
| chomp | yes I read this too before I installed it. | 21:24 |
| ash_worksi | I was going to ask off-topic-ally what that bash terminal emulator for windows was called, but I remembered it was cygwin | 21:27 |
| chomp | first of all i would be happy if my ubuntu would startup normally with a X | 21:27 |
| ash_worksi | "that ..." you know, "THAT" one. | 21:27 |
| matsaman | mm, cygwin | 21:30 |
| chomp | ok, it seems system starts up, just X brokes... | 21:48 |
| chomp | lightdm.service: failed with result 'exit-code' | 21:48 |
| jhutchins | chomp: So you get no gui, just a fall-back to the console, which works normally, right? | 21:58 |
| jhutchins | !radeon | 21:58 |
| ubottu | On Ubuntu, AMD's official Linux graphics driver "amdgpu" is automatically loaded for matching hardware. Very old cards use driver "radeon" (r300, r600) instead. See the !man pages for X options, "modinfo -p <graphics-driver>" for kernel parameters. Both drivers are open source and integrate with MESA and !DRI. Drivers "amdgpu-pro", "fglrx" and "ati" are not supported here. | 21:58 |
| chomp | jhutchins: yes | 21:59 |
| jhutchins | chomp: This was a working system before you installed the new card? Did you remove the previous graphics hardware? | 22:00 |
| chomp | ubottu yes this was the reason to buy a AMD Card | 22:01 |
| chomp | jhutchins yes and yes\ | 22:01 |
| jhutchins | chomp: So it's possible/likely that there are drivers and/or settings for the previous card still in effect. | 22:02 |
| jhutchins | chomp: What was the old card? | 22:02 |
| chomp | Geforce GTS 450 | 22:02 |

| chomp | but first, after installing the new cards X also starts, but display settings for second screen was pure. So I googled arround a bit and then i installed amdgpu manually | 22:04 |
| chomp | I think the problem is that lightdm could not start, but I am actually not able to figure out why | 22:05 |
| jhutchins | chomp: "pure" doesn't mean anything to me here. | 22:07 |
| chomp | journalctl -xeu lightdm.service | 22:08 |
| chomp | tells me: lightdm.service: FAiled with result 'exit-code' | 22:08 |
| chomp | but which exit code? | 22:08 |
| cbreak | systemctl status lightdm might show more | 22:08 |
| jhutchins | /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 22:08 |
| chomp | jhutchins: I"m not sure but I think it was 320x200 and not changeable | 22:09 |
| jhutchins | chomp: The main screen is normal? | 22:10 |
| chomp | I tried systemctl before but same code=exited | 22:11 |
| chomp | The main screesn WAS normal! Yes | 22:11 |
| cbreak | chomp: normally, systemctl shows some lines of the recent log output | 22:12 |

| LtHummus | is there a downside to enabling livepatch? This is on a personal server I use at home, so I was going to use one of the 5 server licenses that i am allowed for free | 23:02 |
| oerheks | No, you still have to plan a reboot though | 23:04 |
| sarnold | LtHummus: there was one bad update a year or so ago that caused stability problems | 23:04 |
| LtHummus | yeah after enabling i saw that the free tier is auto opt-ed in to beta updates | 23:05 |
| LtHummus | so i was wondering if that ever bit people or if they were usually pretty good | 23:05 |
| LtHummus | (I assume there's no way to opt-out without paying?) | 23:05 |
| sarnold | LtHummus: right | 23:05 |
| sarnold | LtHummus: (and yeah, one customer accidentally got on the beta tier despite paying. they were not super pleased with the crashes..) | 23:06 |
