| bryceh | teward, yeah that's not a bad idea. I had considered if nginx is mre-worthy but they don't seem to put out a prolific enough number of point releases (historically just a couple until the next stable release typically), and point releases wouldn't carry major new features so mayn't address bugs like that | 02:02 |
|---|---|---|
| bryceh | teward, the server team also maintains a backports PPA of various server software we formally backport ourselves, which is another option | 02:03 |

| linuxperia | Hi all. I am having a problem with setting the minimal cpu freq speed in ubuntu. I was able to set the minimun scaling frequency to 2.5GHZ as seen here in this paste but somehow when i check the current frequency of the cpu cores it is always at minimum. Do i need somehting to restart so the changes are picked up or what else do i need to do so the cpu cores runs always with a set min frequency. Thanks in advance for the help. | 10:28 |
| linuxperia | Ahh yes here is the ouput of the set min scaling frequencys => https://pastes.io/drnwm4zlva | 10:28 |

| sethj | anyone know if the 50 ubuntu advantage/pro systems you get as an ubuntu member is still a thing? When I log into the Ubuntu One account associated with my launchpad I only see the 5 free personal tokens. | 18:54 |
| sdeziel | sethj: IIRC, that's a UI bug only, you should be able to use more than the 5 free personal tokens | 19:29 |

| gildasio | Hi all, I would like some help. I'm studying some things and for that I'm compiling an Ubuntu kernel, but while installing the kernel I got a "/lib/modules ... No space left on device" error. Using `df -h` I found `copymods 3.6G 3.6G 0 100% /usr/lib/modules` but I'm not familiar with this "copymods". How can I solve this? Resize the partition or what? | 20:19 |
| sethj | sdeziel, sarnold, thanks! That clears up my confusion. | 20:26 |
| sarnold | gildasio: I think that's just part of building the initramfs to boot the system | 20:28 |
| sarnold | gildasio: yeah, grow whatever filesystem is full | 20:29 |
| gildasio | sarnold: thanks, but it's a default configuration? Because I can't find anything about this /usr/lib/modules partition | 20:47 |
| gildasio | also is there any other way to fix it? because it isn't a fresh installation so I think that resize the partition (it isn't a lvm) could go wrong | 20:48 |
| sarnold | gildasio: you can use df -h /usr/lib/modules or /lib/modules or whatever and it'll figure out what filesystem it is on | 20:48 |
| gildasio | sarnold: it is a copymods, that I failed in understand :/ | 20:52 |
| sarnold | gildasio: I don't think copymods is necessarily the important part here -- it's just the tool that reported the full filesystem, no? | 20:53 |
| gildasio | sarnold: I'm not sure, look the `df -h` output: http://sprunge.us/hkFX0F | 20:56 |
| sarnold | gildasio: waaaaaaat. *now* I understand your confusion. :) | 20:57 |
| sarnold | thanks, sorry | 20:57 |
| sarnold | gildasio: my *guess* is that's a tmpfs (it's got the same size as the other tmpfs filesystems, and those default to something like half the RAM) -- you might be able to resize it, or mount your own there with a larger size? | 20:59 |
| gildasio | sarnold: sorry, I would like to explain it better | 21:01 |
| gildasio | sarnold: so copymods is just a tmpfs? so I can easily ummount it than mount using a larger file? | 21:01 |
| sarnold | gildasio: not really a 'file', it just uses some system memory as needed | 21:03 |
| sarnold | gildasio: but yeah, that's what that looks like | 21:03 |
| gildasio | sarnold: ummm gotcha, I'ĺl read about these type of filesystem and try it | 21:07 |
| gildasio | thanks very much! :) | 21:07 |
| sarnold | gildasio: sure thing :) thanks for perisisting :) hehe | 21:07 |
| sdeziel | gildasio: I think you can even live resize that tmpfs with `sudo mount -o remount,size=5G /usr/lib/modules` | 21:09 |
| sdeziel | confusingly, `/usr/lib/modules` is not a tmpfs of any kind here, it just resides in the rootfs | 21:11 |
| sarnold | *very* confusingly :) yes | 21:16 |
| sarnold | but i haven't compiled my own kernels in a decade or more | 21:17 |
| sdeziel | oh it could indeed be a temporary (unintended) tmpfs used to speedup the writing of .ko files ... man, 3.6G of .ko is a pretty big kernel ;) | 21:18 |
| JanC | seems dangerous to use a tmpfs for that... | 21:18 |
| JanC | if it needs that much space | 21:19 |
| sdeziel | yeah, that can push you into OOM territory | 21:19 |
| sarnold | kernel build servers are usually not small machines :) | 21:21 |
| sdeziel | JanC: fortunately, tmpfs can be swapped out | 21:22 |
| JanC | that certainly won't make it faster though :P | 21:23 |
| gildasio | JanC: agree, but to make it clear, it wasn't me that set it up this partition. At least not consciously | 22:30 |
| JanC | and to be clear also: it wasn't criticism of you, I understand it was decided by whomever set up that process and probably didn't expect it to need that much space :) | 22:31 |
| gildasio | np :) I would like to know what happend to this partition been created so | 22:33 |
| sdeziel | gildasio: we (at least I ;) are not sure it is even a tmpfs. Were you able to remount it with a larger size? If so, that'd confirm its tmpfs-like behavior. | 22:48 |
| gildasio | sdeziel: I'll try the command you post, but after I try some other tests. Sorry the VM is busy now :P | 22:54 |
