konradHey, I've just installed Ubuntu v. 22.04 - I noticed, that Firefox is installed via Snap - I'm a bit lost, is this something new, or I missed something before? Why is that so? BTW, I don't even have Firefox in the Application Launcher. It's KDE (Kubuntu) if this matters.01:39
sarnoldnew-ish01:41
sarnoldwith snaps, eventually there'll be one version of firefox compiled per architecture, and mozilla can update them when they want01:42
sarnoldwith debs we had five or six packages built per architecture and there might be differences in performance, behaviour, bugs, etc01:43
sarnoldand providing updates was getting harder as it meant bringing back new versions of the rust compiler to old releases01:43
konradok, I think I got it, thanks sarnold !01:47

pycurioushow do i log cpu/gpu temps in a file in ubuntu 20.04lts?02:03

pycurioushope you had a good day sarnold?02:06
=== chris14_ is now known as chris14
sarnoldpycurious: yeah, not bad :)02:07
pycuriousStill trying to figure out why my GPU desktop crashes at a certain point in time - I was thinking of recording the temps - perhaps they could give a blue02:08
sarnoldpycurious: there's a bunch of temp files in /sys/devices/ that have temperatures, here's my thinkpad https://termbin.com/g1x002:10
sarnoldpycurious: ugh :( that's frustrating :(02:10
pycurioussarnold: I want to record those temps so that i can look at them at the time of freeze02:11
sarnoldpycurious: I got those paths by looking through find /sys/devices -name '*temp*' -- your system will probably have some similar, some different, etc02:12
sarnoldpycurious: once you've found them, you can do something like: while true ; do sleep 10 ; grep . /sys/devices/....  >> ~/temps ; done02:13
pycurioussarnold: will give that a try, thanks02:13
pycurioussarnold: was also looking at telegraf/grafana/promethius - they look painful to setup02:22
sarnoldpycurious: yeah02:22
sarnoldpycurious: this thing is packaged in the archives and people who run it seem to really like it, but i've never set it up myself :( https://github.com/netdata/netdata02:22

squarecircleheyo. Anyone had this stupid error with qemu-nbd?03:03
squarecircleoh yeah, not being stupid03:18
squarecirclehelps a lot with debugging. There was an old modified image still connected and could not be disconnected because it contained a mounted crypt volume.03:19
pycurioussarnold: how do i fix this - The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY AA16FCBCA621E701 - and i do have another one of these having issues03:23
pycurioussarnold: And I tried to do netdata - and i got into this one : GPG error: http://repo.netdata.cloud/repos/edge/ubuntu focal/ Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG F9177B5265F56346 Netdata03:23
pycurioussudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys AA16FCBCA621E701 - not sure why this is failing03:26
arraybolt3pycurious: What repository is failing?03:26
arraybolt3Oh, wait, I see it.03:27
pycuriousarraybolt3: I've two failing at this point. No matter what i try - cant fix those03:27
arraybolt3pycurious: apt will look in two places for keys - a trusted.gpg.d folder, which are keys that are trusted for any repo (these are being deprecated). Then there are repo-specific keys that I believe are stored under /etc/apt/keyrings and that are assigned to particular repos. The trick is finding the right key and putting it in the right place.03:28
arraybolt3Usually the repo setup directions for each third-party repo you set up have the key setup as part of the instructions, though.03:29
pycuriousarraybolt3: what i dont understand is - one one system - this command "sudo apt-key adv --keyserver http://keyserver.ubuntu.com/ --recv-keys AA16FCBCA621E701" fixed the issue. On another one - it wont. Says: gpg: keyserver receive failed: No such file or directory03:29
arraybolt3THat key appears to be in the Ubuntu keyserver.03:30
arraybolt3https://keyserver.ubuntu.com/pks/lookup?search=AA16FCBCA621E701&fingerprint=on&op=index03:30
arraybolt3So, perhaps there's a different way you can do this, one moment while I do some experimenting...03:30
arraybolt3pycurious: Really, though, the right way to do this isn't to just blindly accept whatever key the package claims it needs, the right way would be to figure out the key from the distributor and import that key. Otherwise you defeat the security of the key setup and risk installing malicious packages.03:31
pycuriousarraybolt3: how do i do it the right way - I dont even know what package is being installed using that key03:32
arraybolt3pycurious: I think I can see the key here: http://repo.netdata.cloud/repos/repoconfig/ubuntu/focal/03:32
arraybolt3It's probably the Release.gpg file.03:32
arraybolt3Though... there's .deb files in there that look like they'll probably automate the process.03:33
arraybolt3And I'm realizing that file might not be the right file after all.03:33
arraybolt3pycurious: Yep, just found out by digging through the .apt package in that folder.03:35
arraybolt3pycurious: Download this: http://repo.netdata.cloud/repos/repoconfig/ubuntu/focal/netdata-repo_2-1+ubuntu20.04_all.deb and install it with "sudo apt install ./netdata-repo_2-1+ubuntu20.04_all.deb".03:35
arraybolt3That will install the keys.03:35
arraybolt3(I checked inside the file, it contains the keys and puts them under trusted.gpg.d.)03:35
pycuriousarraybolt3: The following packages will be REMOVED:03:36
pycurious  netdata-repo-edge03:36
pycuriousThe following NEW packages will be installed:03:36
pycurious  netdata-repo03:36
pycuriousthat probably was not the correct deb?03:36
arraybolt3You already have the edge repo isntalled then.03:37
arraybolt3What's "ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d" show? Pastebin, please.03:37
pycuriousAfter that deb install - I still get - W: GPG error: http://repo.netdata.cloud/repos/edge/ubuntu focal/ Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG F9177B5265F56346 Netdatabot <bot@netdata.cloud>03:37
arraybolt3BADSIG means that the signature the package has and the signature provided by the distributor are mismatched. That either means that something on either your end or their end is misconfigured, or you have an attempted man in the middle attack on your hands.03:38
pycuriousarraybolt3: https://dpaste.org/wX4WN03:38
arraybolt3I see you have netdata-edge and netdata repos both installed... that might be our fault from what we just did just now, but that may be the problem.03:39
arraybolt3I'd unstainll both netdata-repo and netdata-repo-edge, then remove both of their .list files from /etc/apt/sources.list.d, then install only the repo package for the version you actually want.03:39
pycuriouslet me try03:40
arraybolt3Also, do you have a proxy server involved?03:40
* arraybolt3 has to go afk suddenly, sorry and good luck!03:41
arraybolt3OK, here's a silly question for you. Is there a way to get Linux to make /dev/mmcblk0 actually be named /dev/sda, in such a way that the partitions behave the same, i.e. /dev/mmcblk0p1 becomes /dev/sda1?04:58
arraybolt3(Background - I'm trying to use WoeUSB to make a Windows installation drive... BUT... I'm trying to flash the Windows ISO to an SD card reader. Apparently the way that Linux presents an SD card to the system is confusing WoeUSB.)04:59
arraybolt3I suspect this is probably futile, and I need to just find a USB SD card reader rather than using the SD card slot in the side of my laptop.04:59
arraybolt3(And if you're wondering why I'm trying to make a Windows installation drive, it's not for me - my dad got himself hacked and needs his laptop reinstalled.)05:01
darth_tuxarraybolt3: its ok I am getting a win laptop just to game and nothing else. I wont do a thing on it off gaming because I hate windows with a seething passion but it is good for games05:03
arraybolt3Gah, cheap USB SD card reader died on me. The card itself is still OK though :P05:05
arraybolt3Anyway, I'm realizing I can use a VM to do this if I get desperate, and also I have other USB card readers, so nevermind about the above question.05:05

ArmouredHeartHello, I have just freshly installed ubuntu to my N550Jx laptop and seem to be having difficulty with the wifi suddenly being disabled a few minutes after boot. I am a gentoo user so I am used to just using ifconfig to bring up my network interfaces, however it seems ifconfig is depreciated in ubuntu? Also, I have no idea what is default in ubuntu so I also don't know where to start looking to diagnose the wifi adapter being randomly turned off. Any16:07
ArmouredHearthelp would be greatly appreciated16:07
ograArmouredHeart, on non desktop systems ubuntu uses netplan by default ... documentation is at netplan.io ... (FWIW, ifconfig was deprecated in debian, ubuntu just had to follow suit here, if you need a commandline tool to i.e. look up addresses use "ip")16:10
ograArmouredHeart, "a few minutes after boot" sounds like your WIFI device goes into some power saving mode, there might be a driver option you need to set or some such16:17

lotuspsychjepi_: do you have an ubuntu support question?17:21
pi_yes , is there a way to customize ubuntu17:22
pi_?17:22
lotuspsychjepi_: can you elaborate, what would you like to customize exactly?17:23
ArmouredHeartogra: The ip command fails to bring up my wifi interface. The "nmcli d" command still shows its status as "down" and "dormant"17:24
pi_i want to customize it to run windows softwares flawlessly?17:24
pi_is there any methods other than wine17:28
pi_wine is not even working for that software17:28
pi_i want to install robo analyzer17:28
tomreynpi_: you can run any windows software in a windows VM17:29
ArmouredHeartpi_: Windows software will rarely work flawlessly on linux because it depends on windows-only libraries. The WINE system can provide "hooks" and a C drive where windows programs can be installed, and many windows programs run decently well using it. WINE itself is highly customizable, but takes a lot of work and understanding to get a profile set up for a specific program. There is the PROTON versoin of WINE which is tailored to games, for example. It17:30
ArmouredHeartcan also run other graphically intensive software.17:30
pi_PROTON , ill check it ! ArmouredHeart  thanks , is it easy to use17:32
pi_i used wine. but it was hard to use , i mean to customize17:33
lotuspsychjepi_: there's playonlinux too if you want it easier17:33
ArmouredHeartpi_: A really cheap trick you could use is to install Steam, add your program to steam library, and then enable "forced windows compatability" in the management menu, and try running it as if it were a game. I know I managed to get things to work that way back when I still used windows stuff17:36
lotuspsychjepi_: there are also a few snaps available for robot software on ubuntu17:36
pi_lotuspsychje, Thanks17:43
pi_ArmouredHeart, wow man that genius17:44
pi_ill install steam17:44
tomreynor you could use ROS, if you don't depend on the specific software17:45
ArmouredHeartYeah, the "sudo ip link set [interface] up" command doesn't bring the wifi backup. What is the package called so I can rip out the default networking and install something that works?17:45
tomreynare you asking "which package provides the 'ip' command"?17:46
pi_tomreyn, have you used ros17:47
tomreynpi_: no. i bet alis can help you find a channel where there are folks who did, though17:47

pi_tomreyn, Thanks for the suggestion;17:48
pi_ubottu, you tooo!17:48
ograArmouredHeart, ip alone can not handle wifi ... if you want to configure it with NM anyway (sorry, i thought you'd run a server install) just use the "nmtui" command17:49
ArmouredHearttomreyn: Ah, yes. Sorry. Frustration has eroded my manners17:49
ogranmtui gives you an easy to mnager commandline UI17:50
ogra*manage17:50
ArmouredHeartYes, but it can't turn on the interfaces17:50
tomreynArmouredHeart: dpkg -S $(which ip)    # but i very much doubt this is going to make anything better17:51
ArmouredHeartThe problem is not the connection, it is that the network device has been turned off and I can't get it to turn back on17:51
ograwell, did you check if your driver has a power management feature  ?17:51
tomreynand did you check rfkill17:51
ArmouredHeartAh! No I did not. I have never needed before. Thank you17:52

robottidudemy cursor keys are behind fn+wsad21:32
robottidudethose work fine on grub and windows21:32
sarnoldit might be worth looking around a little bit to see if your keyboard has a fn button or something similar that changes the meanings of the keys; i've seen more than one person try to change in software something that could be fixed by pushing a button21:32
robottidudehow about those work fine on grub?21:33
robottidudeKeyCode: =/+/ 0x73  115 016321:34

ogranot any "extra layer of mappings" mode21:46
* ogra has a few 60% kbds, but there are self-built so i have ful control over the firmware and keymapping in them21:46
ogra*they are21:46
robottidudeI dont know if there is something like that.21:46
robottidudeit is quite basic in Windows21:47
robottidudeand on Grub21:47
robottidudeyes. this normally costs 60€. but I got this for 15€21:47
sarnoldI wonder if there's windows drivers to configure things?21:47
robottidudeso that why I have this. but I did desided today use it linux and noticed that no cursor keys.21:48
robottidudeI dont know. It just works on WIndows21:48
robottidudeafter boot21:48
robottidudenormal keyboard drivers21:48
ograwell, i'm pretty sure you'd need a custom keymap for it ... but no clue how one does that nowadays (i tink i did that the last time around 2012 and the whole kbd handing has changed since21:49
robottidudeeverything else works here. but not this21:49
robottidudemaybe there is some odd fn-mode21:49
sarnoldsetxkbmap  /usr/share/X11/xkb/  stuff is the newer Xorg keyboard map things, but it's not very fun21:49
robottidudethat changes those cursor keys to end, home and other keys21:49
ograis xmodmap still a thing ?21:49
sarnoldyeah21:50
sarnoldI'm not sure which one is easier to work with21:50
sarnoldmy old four-line ~/.Xmodmap can be replaced by this one line though setxkbmap -option caps:escape21:50
ograi think xmodmap is great for ad-hoc stuff but not so much for permanent21:50
sarnoldso I've vastly preferred setxkbmap for a while :)21:50
sarnoldhmm21:51
robottidudeI did install xkeycaps21:51
robottidudeand it seems old21:51
ograyeah, thats ancient21:51
ograhere is a description of the old way https://superuser.com/questions/2194/remap-keys-in-linux ...21:51
robottidudeI am using 22.04 and I think I am using Wayland.21:52
ograso you'd grab "showkey" to actually find the keycode the kbd sends when you press the desired button ... and then use xmodmap to point that keycode to the resulting action you want21:53
sarnoldI can't find any buttons on that thing for controlling numlock21:54
robottidudeI think I am going to try that.21:54
sarnoldI wonder if numlock is turned on ..21:54
ograoh !21:54
ograi think sarnold is onto something21:54
ograrobottidude, can you try toggling numlock ?21:55
robottidudeit is off now21:55
robottidudeno difference21:55
sarnolddang :( I really liked that idea21:55
ograyeah21:56
robottidude*+§21:56
robottidudeI did have secondary keyboard connected to my computer21:57
robottidudeand it did have numlock on21:57
robottidudeI just turned it off.21:57
robottidudecan secondary keyboard break things?21:58
ogranah, they are separate things21:58
ogra(at least normally 😛 )21:58
robottidudeis there possiblity that keyboard works better with other computer?21:58
ograhard to tell21:59
robottidudeI have raspberry pi with raspbian os21:59
robottidudeshould I test this?21:59
sarnoldhmm, there's one numlock setting at any given moment, I've heard of folks having a second keyboard plugged in just to have the numlock key once in a while21:59
sarnoldso if the other keyboard showed numlock on, it would have been on for all the keyboards at once21:59
ograh, yu mean on a kernel level on boot ?22:00
ogra*you22:00
ograhmm22:00
nothingmanhey22:01
ograrobottidude, wel, why not ...22:01
ogra*well22:01
ogradamn ... my laptop kbd is slowly giving up 😞22:01
robottidudeI must try something soon22:01
robottidudelike when I am ready22:01
sarnoldogra: I know where you can get a good deal on neat looking finnish keyboards :)22:02
ograsarnold, lol, for my XPS1322:03
ogra?22:03
sarnoldogra: it's not quite per-kernel sort of thing, each virtual console has its own numlock setting; but there's one per context22:04
ograwell, i remember there was a numlock=on kernel cmdline once in the past22:05
sarnoldxkbvleds can show the status of the leds graphically, holy cow that's ugly looking today :)22:05
ogralol22:05
ograwe'Re just old farts ...22:05
* sarnold nods22:05
robottidudeI am going to try it first for my laptop22:05
robottidudeafter that with my raspberry pi22:05
nothingmanhi. i have ubuntu server, i want buy a new domain, but i dont have a fix ip.22:08
nothingmanhow can i do it right?22:09
ograyou will need to buy an IP at your internet provider22:10
ogra(or change to a provider that offers one along with the access)22:10
nothingmanyes i want but the provider say they cant give me a fix ip22:10
nothingman:(22:10
toddcnothingman: or use a dynamic dns that is availible free and for a small price fron a lot of places22:11
sarnoldthere's a bunch of different things interacting at once; domain names are separate from dns names. you can buy domain names from registrars such as gandi or namecheap. ips can often be leased from cloud providers, or other isps22:11
sarnoldsigh I hate being stupid22:11
nothingmannow i use a dynamic dns, but i want build a mail server22:11
sarnolddomain names are separate from ip addresses  <<--- fixed22:11
nothingmanmaybe i change the provider22:13
ograor buy a cloud instance and do it there ...22:13
sarnoldthat'll definitelygive far better results22:14
nothingmannope. i want my home server, easier.22:14
nothingmani work with too much data.22:14
sarnoldmost mail servers drop email from residential networks22:14
ograyep22:15
nothingmanim a photographer, i give the photos the cotumers from my home server. this is safety.22:15
robottidudeyes22:15
robottidudesame problem with raspberry pi22:16
robottidudeno cursor keys on command line22:16
robottidudeand nowhere else22:16
nothingmanapt-get install cursor22:16
nothingman:D22:16
robottidude:D22:16
nothingmanreboot, reinstall?22:16
nothingmannot possible?22:16
robottidudecan I globally new keyboard layout? for my system? for that keyboard?22:16
ograwell, try the xkbmap or setxkbmap way22:17
robottidudedoes xkbmap work also on framebuffer console and wayland?22:17
sarnoldno and unknown22:17
sarnoldwell, someone knows, I don't know ;( heh22:17
BertHi guys, I'm running 18.04 which is afaik still supported until april 2023, however I'm already getting "The following security updates require Ubuntu Pro with 'esm-apps' enabled:". Did I miss something and was the EOL date moved up?22:18
sarnoldBert: missed something, yeah, but not eol; we're now offering securiity updates for universe packages, too22:19
ograrobottidude, yu can also first try: sudo dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration22:19
sarnoldhttps://ubuntu.com/pro has some more details22:19
sarnoldogra: OH!22:19
ograand hope that you find a layout that matches your kbd somehow22:19
sarnoldogra: nice idea. I'm not sure what I'd recommend once running, but that's a good start :)22:19
ograwell, it comes up wih 100 layouts or so22:20
ograbut it is like gambling to find one that works i guess22:20
robottidudehttps://cdn-a.verkkokauppa.com/files/608fc/ee13c/bfb64/7757f/19d3.pdf <-- I did find manual.22:21
Bertsarnold: oh ok, so this is marketing injection into apt? :/22:21
ograBert, it is canonical security team now maintaining 23000 packages in universe ... which did not happen until last week22:22
sarnoldBert: more or less; not everybody reads UWN or ubuntu blogs22:22
BertI see, just feels a bit scummy to be honest. The way it's phrased looks more like you're missing out on something that's now been turned into a paid service, instead of something being added (even though it seems to be the latter)22:23
robottidudeogra, I am little bit sceptic. I did try most finnish layouts.22:23
robottidudeI think there is just something nasty with this keyboard22:23
ograrobottidude, well, the first page is for the model22:23
ograi meant you should play with the different models and find one that is close to yours22:24
ravageBert: that discussion already happened in #ubuntu-discuss and I'm sure not for the last time22:24
ravageBut there is where it should stay :)22:24
Bertravage: I have nothing more to discuss, no worries, I was just honestly thinking I basically lost support due to EOL 3 months earlier than expected :P22:25
ravageOk. You did not lose anything:)22:25
BertI'll disable the ESM stuff and get on with things :)22:25
ograBert, well, where else would you expect security updates to be shown if not in apt 🙂22:25
sarnoldBert: nope! :) just that you could be getting a bunch more security updates with a few commands22:25
ogra... for free ...22:25
BertI use EOL as a reason to force myself to upgrade22:26
Bertotherwise I would still be on 14.0422:26
BertI miss 14.04 totem though :(22:26
sarnoldlol, I know how that goes22:26
sarnoldRelease:        16.0422:26
sarnoldirssi host ..22:26
sarnoldrobottidude: well dang, I was hoping that manual would be twice as long. instead, it's in two languages!22:26
ravageAnd for my fellow volunteers there is !ubuntupro now too. Tom approved it :)22:26
sarnoldrobottidude: I can't read either one! but it doesn't look like it has answers :(22:27
Bert!ubuntupro22:27

robottidudesarnold, I suppose that firmware is just broken with this keyboard on linux.22:27
=== Guest857 is now known as Sauvin
robottidudesomething is fishy with this keyboard.22:28
robottidudeBus 001 Device 006: ID 05ac:024f Apple, Inc. Aluminium Keyboard (ANSI)22:28
robottidudelike this22:28
robottidude:D22:28
sarnoldlol22:28
nothingmansarnold: tehat leteznek meg kockak akik folyamat gep elott ulnek :D22:29
sarnoldbuuuuuut maybe that's a hint on how to try to fix it? maybe select a finnish *apple* keyboard?22:29
emz229not to totally derail the conversation but does anyone know if the "BindsTo" property in a systemd service can have an XOR operation?22:29
ografull encryption !22:29
robottidudeis there possiblity that linux does have different layout because it believes it is apple keyboard?22:29
robottidudeand it is broken because of that?22:29
sarnoldnothingman: I *also* don't speak hungarian (but it's a nice place to visit :)22:29
ravagefull bit encryption!22:30
robottidudesarnold, I did try that also. no difference22:30
sarnoldrobottidude: yeah, I use an apple aluminum keyboard on a server system somewhere, and when it was new it was very very annoying22:30
ograrobottidude, it is likely broken because the kernel detects it wrongly, yes22:30
nothingmanoh, i just see whois you logged in from budapest.22:30
robottidudeogra, can I just fake this device?22:31
ograi dont think so, since the kernel will likely not know your device at all22:31
robottidudehid                   151552  5 usbhid,hid_apple,hid_generic,hid_logitech_dj,hid_logitech_hidpp22:31

robottidudedamn22:32
sarnoldnothingman: weird. This is a VM in us-west-1 or us-west-2, I forget..22:32
ograand the kernel has that ID mapped to apple kbds22:32
Bertogra sarnold: thx for your help guys! good luck with many people asking this same question, and in case you are going: have fun at FOSDEM :)22:32

ograM9nx[m], i suspect american keyboards simply dont have a € key ..22:34
robottidudeogra, should I blacklist that apple_hid module?22:34
robottidudeit might fix it?22:34
Bertravage: will be hard to find each other with 5-6k people participating xD22:34
ograrobottidude, you can try22:35

sarnoldBert: oo you've reminded me of frites and beer :) enjoy :)22:35
* ogra has some delirium tremens "non memories" of brussels and fosdem 🙂22:36
FKAShinobido you really need to add x-gvfs-show to show a file system in Gnome files?  / does not have it specified, but I can view it in Gnome Files.22:36
M9nx[m]ogra: Yes. But there must be a way to map it!22:36
M9nx[m]I can do it with the layout in Portuguese!22:36
M9nx[m]It's algr + E22:36
M9nx[m]s/algr/altgr/22:37
sarnoldyou can use xmodmap to add new bindings if you wish; it might be possible to configure deadkeys to let you type it, I never understood that one22:37
ograM9nx[m], like in german (or oher european kbds) ... you might need a compose key to write it on a US ANSI kbd22:37
