| tomreyn | Floating4: if you're familiar with network diagrams, you could draw your intended setup here https://app.diagrams.net/ and share it. | 02:42 |
| tomreyn | also discuss whether you actually want a GUI or a shell / terminal is sufficient | 02:43 |
| pickanick | I'm interested in the gnome disk utility feature of testing I/O of connected drives including USB flash drives. Is there a special package that does that? Or what's the apt package name of the GNOME disk utility? I'm in KDE (Kubuntu) and would have to install it separately, as I am unaware of the KDE equivalent. | 03:13 |
| Floating4 | tomreyn I managed to make it work, I just gave the "management" nic a bogus gateway so it can resolve internal but not external. Not ideal but open to other ways to ensure no internet leak can happen on that nic | 03:19 |
| Floating4 | tomreyn I'm basically going to call this my DMZ now | 03:20 |
| akik | pickanick: google says it's gnome-disk-utility | 03:28 |
| arraybolt3 | pickanick: This isn't ideal, but you might be able to do something similar using `dd` on the command line. Something like "cd /path/to/USB_Drive; dd if=/dev/zero of=./test.img bs=4M count=256" and that will write a 1 GB file to the drive. dd should tell you the speed statistics when it finishes. There's probably a more ideal way of doing that, especially since that's liable to be thrown off by disk caching, but that's maybe a possible | 03:29 |
| arraybolt3 | starting point. | 03:29 |
| arraybolt3 | Adding "oflag=direct" to the above dd command might give you more accurate results. | 03:31 |
| pickanick | Based on my recollection of writing .iso to USB by dd, dd does appear to report write speed to cache, being fast initially then slowing down... aha thank you for the oflag=direct suggestion. | 03:32 |
| pickanick | Don't know if there are any Ubuntu release devs around, but I noticed that the checksums internal to the .iso file are md5sums ... I thought md5 was no longer considered a secure verification by itself. | 03:35 |
| arraybolt3 | The md5 checking is only for *integrity* checking, and md5 is pretty good for that still. And it's a secondary check - there are sha256 checks that are supposed to be used as a primary check. | 03:36 |
| arraybolt3 | For the on-ISO hashes, security isn't a concern - a malicious actor could just change the checksums if they wanted to. The ISOs have SHA256SUMS files distributed alongside them, and those files are detach-signed with an additional SHA256SUMS.gpg file. | 03:37 |
| arraybolt3 | So if you need to do a really thorough check, you download all three, use GPG to verify the SHA256SUMS file, then use sha256sum to verify the ISO file. I always do that. | 03:37 |
| arraybolt3 | The md5 sums are handy for if you flash a good ISO to a flaky drive and it corrupts the data. | 03:38 |
| arraybolt3 | pickanick: btw if you find yourself downloading a lot of ISOs and constantly have to verify them, this might help: https://github.com/ArrayBolt3/vm-isotest | 03:40 |
| arraybolt3 | It's primarily a virtualized testing tool, but it can be used as an ISO downloader. | 03:41 |
| * arraybolt3 just noticed I have some serious problems in the help guide for that tool, fixing now... | 03:45 | |
| arraybolt3 | Fixed, now the instructions will actually work :P | 03:47 |
| arraybolt3 | *should actually work, assuming I didn't make any other mistakes | 03:47 |
| pickanick | Thanks for the suggestion and the quality check ... Always so nice when the instructions work ;) | 03:51 |
| pickanick | I noticed that ubuntu offers as a downloading option, zsync, which can update changed files. Is zsync smart enough to efficiently update a previous release ISO? Or just use it to download a fresh image from scratch? | 03:54 |
| arraybolt3 | pickanick: zsync is smart enough to download just the changes from one ISO to another. | 03:58 |
| arraybolt3 | I use it very frequently for updating daily experimental ISOs. | 03:58 |
| arraybolt3 | However, the differences between ISOs from one *release* to another are frequently large enough that it's not really worth it - the data that can be kept is little, and the compute time needed to find the delta is large. | 03:59 |
| arraybolt3 | It's efficient a lot of times, but from release to release, I usually download fresh. | 03:59 |
| pickanick | arraybolt3: great thanks | 05:40 |
| pickanick | Is there only one OEM kernel shared by all OEMs? | 06:09 |
| rbox | pickanick: huh? | 06:12 |
| pickanick | tomreyn: I read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/OEMKernel and it gives the impression that there are generic kernel, -hwe, -oem , so only one OEM kernel package shared by all hardware. No OEM-Dell, OEM-Toshiba, OEM-Asus, etc. | 06:13 |
| arraybolt3 | pickanick: From what I understand (and I could be wrong here), the OEM kernels are simply a method of getting a newer kernel on an older version of Ubuntu before HWE provides a newer kernel. For instance 22.04 started with kernel 5.15, but kernel 5.17 was available as an OEM kernel. | 06:19 |
| arraybolt3 | Such a kernel may be useful for equipment manufacturers who are distributing cutting-edge hardware that may not work well (or at all) with the older kernel. | 06:19 |
| arraybolt3 | I believe that yes, all OEMs use the same kernel, since the function of the OEM kernel is to provide newer kernels early. | 06:19 |
| arraybolt3 | (I may be misunderstanding here, if so someone please correct me.) | 06:19 |
| arraybolt3 | I see there are several other features of OEM kernels, so I didn't get everything right in the above, but it does look like all OEMs use the same kernel. | 06:21 |
| arraybolt3 | And I think I was mostly right based on the doc you linked to. | 06:22 |
| arraybolt3 | (it is a newer kernel on an earlier release, but it's also got other "new" stuff on top, not just a newer kernel version.) | 06:23 |
| pickanick | arraybolt3: thank you for the confirmation and clarification. | 06:54 |
| arraybolt3 | Glad to help! | 07:01 |
| pickanick | Some hardware have a BIOS option of SATA/NVMe vs RAID on. Windows was installed by OEM with the RAID On setting. Apparently I could boot linux, (perhaps Ubuntu?) with a linux VMD driver. In the past I've always changed to RAID off because my understanding of RAID was purely theoretical, RAID seemed to only ofterr more setup complexity, and I was fairly comfortable with having a boot drive and separate data drives. and I wasn't sure whether thre was any | 07:38 |
| pickanick | performance cost to having RAID on in BIOS when one was not actually using RAID. , in the chance that one might later. | 07:39 |
| pickanick | Question: If I install (on a system with *one* drive) Ubuntu in either RAID on or SATA/NVMe, will it still run under the other setting? [Obviously if one have multiple drives and stripes Ubuntu across drives then that won't boot when changing BIOS option to SATA/NVMe !] | 07:41 |
| arraybolt3 | pickanick: Not sure what version of Linux you were using back then, but Ubuntu is *incompatible* with the "RAID" setting you're seeing when working with an NVMe drive. | 07:51 |
| arraybolt3 | That "RAID" setting is Intel Rapid Storage Technology, which is... a mess. I won't get into the details (mostly because I don't know all of them since I'm not a kernel dev :P) but the Linux kernel devs really do not like some of the problems Intel RST causes with NVMe drives - and so they have chosen to not support Intel RST NVMe *at all*. | 07:52 |
| pickanick | well I always would switch to SATA mode. | 07:52 |
| arraybolt3 | Makes sense. But if you switch from SATA to RAID, Ubuntu will just fail to boot. | 07:53 |
| tim_ | hi | 07:53 |
| arraybolt3 | (Windows can, with some fiddling, be made to switch back and forth, Ubuntu not so much so.) | 07:53 |
| arraybolt3 | pickanick: Interesting tidbit, there actually is a patch to enable Intel RST NVMe on Ubuntu's kernel. It's used by Endless OS, so it might actually work if you switched into RAID mode. | 07:54 |
| arraybolt3 | (You can also apply the patch to an Ubuntu kernel if you're willing to do the work.) | 07:54 |
| arraybolt3 | (it being Endless OS in the above) | 07:54 |
| pickanick | oh right, that is important to know. The BIOS did advertise "Linux Kernel VMD Driver" as an alternative to Intel RST. | 07:55 |
| arraybolt3 | That's odd, never heard of that. | 07:55 |
| arraybolt3 | Is this an Intel 10th Gen machine? | 07:55 |
| pickanick | probably ? | 07:57 |
| pickanick | maybe 11 actually | 07:58 |
| arraybolt3 | Hmm. Yeah, no clue there. I see a vmd.c file in the Linux kernel. | 07:58 |
| pickanick | I do too ;) | 07:59 |
| aleksandar1047 | Hello | 08:02 |
| pickanick | https://www.kernelconfig.io/config_vmd which may not be relevant as it says "CONFIG_VMD is not available for the default architecture x86." nevertheless has the comment "Adds support for the Intel Volume Management Device (VMD). VMD is a secondary PCI host bridge that allows PCI Express root ports, and devices attached to them, to be removed from the default PCI domain and placed within the VMD domain. This provides more bus resources than are otherwise possible | 08:02 |
| pickanick | with a single domain. | 08:02 |
| pickanick | I dont have the hardware expertise to know whether it's a significant advantage. | 08:06 |
| pickanick | arraybolt3: it sounds like RST and VMD are separate technologies and drivers, does that match your impression? | 08:07 |

| lotuspsychje | anyone else getting a system is up to date update-manager popup when no updates have been running neither gui or via apt, on jammy desktop? | 14:51 |
| BluesKaj | lotuspsychje, does gnome have "unattended updates" installed by default ? | 15:04 |

| WeeBey | um | 16:08 |
| WeeBey | help. | 16:08 |
| WeeBey | I just accidentally did rm -r folder/* | 16:08 |
| WeeBey | and nuked the current working directory | 16:08 |
| arraybolt3 | WeeBey: A directory with important info I assume? | 16:09 |
| respawn | dont use random commands | 16:09 |
| arraybolt3 | If so, you're probably going to need PhotoRec at this point. | 16:09 |
| arraybolt3 | WeeBey: First thing to do would be to shut down the computer entirely before you accidentally overwrite what's left of the data. | 16:09 |
| leftyfb | WeeBey: restore from backup | 16:09 |
| WeeBey | arraybolt3: Yes. Stuff I didn't want to delete. I was using autocomplete and it was a mistake. | 16:09 |
| arraybolt3 | WeeBey: OK. If you don't have backups, turn off the computer now and boot from a live USB. The sooner you do, the better. | 16:10 |
| arraybolt3 | PhotoRec can attempt to reconstruct the deleted data from what's left on the disk, but the OS may overwrite that stuff if it's still on and doing things. | 16:10 |
| WeeBey | ah dang it. | 16:10 |
| WeeBey | That suuuuuuuuucks | 16:10 |
| arraybolt3 | rm is permanent. There's no undo button. | 16:10 |
| WeeBey | yes. I'm aware. it was a mistake. I've been using the terminal for like a decade. It was just a slip for the fingers really. | 16:11 |
| arraybolt3 | I've done that before. It's... yeah. Sorry that happened. | 16:11 |
| WeeBey | lol that's so silly. Photorec sounds interesting. let me have a look. | 16:11 |
| arraybolt3 | It's available in Ubuntu, however it can't scan a mounted drive so you will need a live USB to use it. | 16:12 |
| arraybolt3 | Once in the live USB, you can do "sudo apt update && sudo apt install testdisk" to install it in the live environment. | 16:12 |
| leftyfb | WeeBey: the longer you run your pc and the more you write and delete (logs, etc) the less likely you are to recover anything. Even then it's not guaranteed | 16:12 |
| fede_ | hi with wich command can I start a just configured vpn? | 16:13 |

| fede_ | arraybolt3: I have tried to start the connection with Network Manager, but it tell me can't connect without any seggestion to find the problem, I have think to start the connection with terminal for see the details of failure | 16:17 |
| WeeBey | would testdisk work on an encrypted drive? | 16:19 |
| WeeBey | lol | 16:19 |
| jhutchins | WeeBey: Encrypted drive with zero backups? | 16:20 |
| WeeBey | jhutchins: Yes? haha | 16:20 |
| WeeBey | Ok, so this is a VM that I was using for some media editing stuff cos of I needed to install so many apps and libs that I didn't want to mess up my own underlying system. | 16:21 |
| arraybolt3 | WeeBey: Yes, actually. | 16:21 |
| arraybolt3 | You have to use cryptsetup to get access to the encrypted container. | 16:21 |
| arraybolt3 | But then you can use PhotoRec on the mapped device. | 16:21 |
| arraybolt3 | (LUKS works by making a "container" on your drive that then holds your data encrypted, You can "mount" that container without mounting the filesystem using cryptsetup.) | 16:21 |
| jhutchins | WeeBey: Why was it encrypted? | 16:22 |
| arraybolt3 | Then you can throw PhotoRec at the container and see what you get. | 16:22 |
| arraybolt3 | jhutchins: They probably encrypted it intentionally with LVM + encryption, which Ubuntu gives you the option of doing. | 16:22 |
| arraybolt3 | WeeBey: You may have to get into the LVM volumes first if you used LVM+encryption. Can't remember the commands to do that off the top of my head, but it's doable. | 16:23 |
| WeeBey | Ah boy. | 16:23 |
| WeeBey | Thansk for the help arraybolt3 | 16:24 |
| jhutchins | arraybolt3: Well, yeah, I doubt anybody encrypts stuff accidentally. | 16:24 |
| WeeBey | I like encrypting and testing things | 16:24 |
| WeeBey | I do it on VMs so I don't mess up my own system. Then sure, i forgot and was using the VM for other stuff. | 16:25 |
| jhutchins | WeeBey: Once you get things stabilised again, one of the great features of VMs is that you can take a snapshot of the virtual hard drives and save those as backup. | 16:25 |
| jhutchins | Storage is cheap these days. | 16:25 |
| WeeBey | jhutchins: yep. Amazing if I had one. haha. Like I said, it was a silly slip that has never happened before. i was just typing too fast to free up space. | 16:26 |
| WeeBey | and oh boy did i free up space. | 16:26 |
| WeeBey | lol | 16:26 |
| jhutchins | WeeBey: Well, I once deleted the contents of a commercial muti-site web server, so it's not like you're the only one. You have my sympathy. | 16:27 |
| WeeBey | jhutchins: ooof. This was personal stuff and not critical just crappy. I can't imagine THAT stress. | 16:28 |
| jhutchins | Experience is proportionate to data destroyed. | 16:28 |
| WeeBey | Well. I would say that now I should make a snapshot but... it's kinda sad to make a backup of an empty drive | 16:29 |
| WeeBey | haha | 16:29 |
| WeeBey | This is my command: rm -r clang+llvm-15.0.5-x86_64-linux-gnu-ubuntu-18.04/* | 16:30 |
| WeeBey | wait no. this one rm clang+llvm-15.0.5-x86_64-linux-gnu-ubuntu-18.04 * | 16:31 |
| WeeBey | Well, lesson learned. Thanks fellas. But I will definitely have a look at that testdisk app. looks interesting. Maybe i'll snapshot then try that application in case i mess something else up. | 16:32 |

| WeeBey | ravage: hmm. I'll look into this. Thanks ! | 18:06 |
| code105 | Newbie Question , there's an antivirus for ubnutu ? if yes what is the best one ? | 18:19 |
| rbox | no | 18:19 |
| oerheks | there are scanners, but pretty useless. | 18:19 |
| oerheks | !antivirus | 18:20 |
| ubottu | An "antivirus" is primarily a concept from the Windows ecosystem and usually a program like that is not needed on Linux because the threat model is different. Malware on Linux does exist, however. Google up "rkhunter" and "linux intrusion detection systems". Also look up !clamav | 18:20 |
| code105 | How to install tar.gz file | 18:23 |
| oerheks | seriously, you could not find that answer? | 18:23 |
| rbox | step 1 read the instructions | 18:23 |
| oerheks | seems like we are doing your homework? | 18:24 |
| code105 | Is newbie Questions now allowed here? | 18:24 |
| jhutchins | code105: You don't. | 18:24 |
| WeeBey | ah boy. Im reading that I gotta convert my 1tb dd img file. Ugh. Nope. Data gone. | 18:25 |
| jhutchins | code105: A tar.gz file is just compressed data. It can be one or more files or folders. | 18:25 |
| oerheks | questions are allowed, but you should investigate the web first. | 18:25 |
| === dlafreniere is now known as dtg01100 | ||
| jhutchins | WeeBey: Convert it to what? | 18:30 |
| WeeBey | jhutchins: some vm-readable format. Suggested using qmu to turn to vmdk etc. | 18:38 |
| code105 | I'm sign in as a root - But when i open the Disk of System (C) , I can't do any action to files or folders like move - copy - cut - remove ! | 18:40 |
| EriC^^ | code105: signed in to where as root? typically the root account is locked in ubuntu | 18:45 |
| oerheks | sudo -i # gives a session as root, but if your system is RO read only, one cannot do anything. | 18:47 |
| Macwinner | hi, i see openssl 3.0.8 is latest patch release | 18:53 |
| Macwinner | but my system version is 3.0.2? | 18:53 |
| rbox | Macwinner: and? | 18:53 |
| tomreyn | !latest | Macwinner | 18:54 |
| ubottu | Macwinner: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa. | 18:54 |
| Macwinner | having some issues across cluster of servers.. lots of troubleshooting leading to theory maybe we are facing some weird vulneratbility with haproxy and libssl.. just shot in dark. | 18:54 |
| Macwinner | sorry, super vague.. have tried lots of different things | 18:55 |
| Macwinner | going to eliminate a openssl issue by building haproxy against latest patch release | 18:55 |
| tomreyn | you're welcome to ask again once you have details you can share. | 18:57 |
| oerheks | openssl 3.07 release date feb 7, jammy version https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssl/3.0.2-0ubuntu1.8 https://www.openssl.org/news/openssl-3.0-notes.html | 18:58 |
| oerheks | your are patched ... | 18:58 |
| oerheks | see cve numbers | 18:58 |
| oerheks | Macwinner, ^^ | 18:58 |
| oerheks | version numbering is not equal, so i understand the confusion | 18:59 |
| Macwinner | got it | 18:59 |
| Macwinner | thanks oerheks! | 18:59 |
| oerheks | have fubn! | 18:59 |
| oerheks | err fun | 19:00 |
| Macwinner | sorry for vagueness.. been a couple days of very little sleep trying to figure this out.. | 19:01 |
| Macwinner | oerheks: if the 3.0.8 changes haven't made it into jammy, is it because the the team has not determined them to be a significant vulnerability? or just maybe timing thing? | 19:03 |
| oerheks | it has been made, patched. | 19:04 |
| oerheks | only Lunar has the new version numbering https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssl | 19:04 |
| oerheks | take a read why https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutoStatic/PackagingVersioningScheme | 19:05 |

| travisghansen | I have an apt source which I only want a couple packages from, currently it installed updated versions of stuff *over* official ubuntu packages which I would like to revert (purge the versions installed from the 3rd party repo and ensure official versions are installed). Also I would like to pin/prevent any further updates from that repo except for | 21:14 |
| travisghansen | the specific packages I allow. Is this possible and if so how? Thanks in advance! | 21:14 |
| travisghansen | the instructions floating around on the internet seems to be pretty hacky things and generally don't instill a lot of confidence in the desired outcome :( | 21:15 |
| rbox | "seem hacky"? | 21:16 |
| rbox | apt pinning is how to do it... | 21:16 |
| travisghansen | yeah, really random scripts piping through 4 or 5 things etc...I don't want to *purge* the packages, I want to make sure the packages are there but installed from ubuntu repos | 21:19 |
| travisghansen | if I pin is there an apt command that I can use to 'downgrade' to the proper repos? | 21:20 |
| rbox | just set the pin and reinstall the pacakge | 21:20 |
| rbox | doing a dist-upgrade shoudl get them to the correct version | 21:21 |
| travisghansen | lemme see if I can get a pin configuration that does what I want then and try a dist-upgrade | 21:23 |

| Rajput | Hi all | 21:51 |
| oerheks | :-) | 21:52 |
| Rajput | what is inside third party software while ubuntu-mate install | 21:53 |
| oerheks | !restricted | 21:54 |
| ubottu | For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/ubuntu-help/media.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats | 21:54 |
| Rajput | if VLC can play everything than still we need to install codecs like things ? | 21:56 |
| hiya | Is Telemetry enabled by default on Ubuntu Desktop and server systems including docker containers, kubernetes pods? | 21:56 |
| oerheks | no, but you still need to install dvd stuff, that is not included in VLC | 21:56 |
| oerheks | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs | 21:56 |
| Rajput | thanks sir | 21:57 |
| oerheks | hiya, yes, but manually. but it is easy to disable; ubuntu-report -f send no | 22:01 |
| hiya | oerheks: But during first boot it asks you for reports to be sent to Canonical which defaults to yes, if we say no to it, it should be all, right? | 22:02 |
| oerheks | yes. | 22:02 |
| oerheks | you still would get the Q if a problem occurs, to send it. | 22:02 |
| hiya | oerheks: so if we click yes again, telemetry is on? | 22:03 |
| ravage | if you enable an option.. it is usally on yes | 22:04 |
| Rajput | is telemetry good thing,what professional says? | 22:05 |
| oerheks | tin foil hats say no. | 22:05 |
| oerheks | it just helps detecting issues. anonymously | 22:06 |
| Rajput | hmm like usage date collection of users | 22:06 |

| oerheks | https://github.com/linuxhw/Trends/tree/master/Dist/Ubuntu | 22:07 |
| Rajput | so thats why FSF/GNU recommending other distros | 22:08 |
| oerheks | yes, about applications on your hardware, and network/internet issues that are a problem | 22:08 |
| oerheks | browsers do this too... | 22:08 |
| Rajput | While Ubuntu offers many features, there are also many privacy issues people are concerned about. | 22:09 |
| ravage | Rajput: you can discuss any concerns your may have in #ubuntu-discuss | 22:10 |
| ravage | this is a support channel only | 22:10 |
| webchat52 | when i said what crushed is the video player standard, and then the window manager | 22:10 |
| travisghansen | rbox: this really isn't working...dist-upgrade isn't re-installing from the ubuntu repos and further more it's going to remove the 1 package I *do* want from the repo (which isn't in the ubuntu repos at all) | 22:12 |
| webchat52 | called "file" hide one folder where i was attempt to open a video file..sorry, thanks a lot and good job byez | 22:12 |
| oerheks | travisghansen, without details what repo you added, it is hard to tell what to do to reverse. | 22:13 |
| oerheks | ' generally' rbox is right | 22:13 |
| travisghansen | https://pastebin.com/4Phq6vuM | 22:15 |
| oerheks | oh pop-os .. they add very special stuff to ubuntu, hard to reverse. and using some of their packages is questionable | 22:17 |
| ravage | burn that installation. start fresh. dont add unsupportted PPAs | 22:17 |
| travisghansen | https://pastebin.com/u2hdQt61 | 22:17 |
| leftyfb | uh | 22:17 |
| leftyfb | travisghansen: if you added the pop-os repo and did updates, you are not longer running ubuntu | 22:18 |
| oerheks | and kernel 6.2 .. not supported here, yet. | 22:18 |
| leftyfb | nor pop-os | 22:18 |
| travisghansen | I'm not interested in flame wars, I need the power package and only have 10-15 pop-os packages | 22:18 |
| leftyfb | travisghansen: reinstall ubuntu | 22:18 |
| oerheks | again; using some of their packages is questionable.. | 22:18 |
| travisghansen | I rarely use ubuntu/apt-based distros | 22:19 |
| leftyfb | travisghansen: it's not a flame war, adding the pop-os repo installs half the OS over Ubuntu, but leave out just enough to make a complete mess | 22:19 |
| === maygic is now known as maygic23 | ||
| leftyfb | travisghansen: you have a broken OS now | 22:19 |
| travisghansen | that's utter bullshit, it's a server and has only minimal packages installed...forget it's pop os, how do I get apt/dpkg to (re)install the ubuntu versions for the 10 packages I don't want | 22:20 |
| ravage | please watch your language | 22:20 |
| travisghansen | notes | 22:21 |
| travisghansen | noted | 22:21 |
| oerheks | travisghansen, with kernel 6.2? | 22:21 |
| leftyfb | travisghansen: remove the pop-os and try to: sudo apt install --reinstall <package:verson> # for every package, finding the version by looking through apt-cache policy <package> for each version | 22:22 |
| travisghansen | I still have 5.15..and yes I would like that gone as well. I don't get how coming from pop-os repo matters vs the kernel generic ppa | 22:22 |
| travisghansen | leftyfb: lemme give that a try real quick and see what I get | 22:22 |
| leftyfb | travisghansen: because the kernel came from pop-os | 22:22 |
| ravage | if it is a minimal server install a reinstall should not take longer than 30 minutes | 22:22 |
| oerheks | jammy + HWE gives 5.19 .. | 22:22 |
| travisghansen | ravage: I have my reasons to not want to re-install.. | 22:23 |
| leftyfb | travisghansen: at this point, you have a mess of an OS, as much as you assume otherwise. Trying to fix it is going to take more effort and time than just a reinstall of Ubuntu | 22:23 |
| ravage | good luck :) | 22:23 |
| leftyfb | travisghansen: and note, you're basically outside the type of support typically given here with unsupported core packages and kernel installed | 22:23 |
| travisghansen | it's basic package management features, I'm not asking for support for kernel 6.2 or any other garbage actually installed by the repo | 22:27 |
| hiya | ravage: but if we said no on first boot, why does it ask again and again about reporting? | 22:29 |
| ravage | not sure what you mean by again and again | 22:30 |
| oerheks | you still would get the Q if a problem occurs, to send it. | 22:31 |
| oerheks | even when you say no | 22:31 |

| oerheks | https://askubuntu.com/questions/135540/what-is-the-whoopsie-process-and-how-can-i-remove-it | 22:31 |
| hiya | oerheks: but if we say yes for this specific problem, would it enable telemetry? | 22:32 |
| oerheks | no. it sends just that one time. | 22:32 |
| leftyfb | travisghansen: ( for i in `apt list --installed 2>/dev/null|awk -F/ '{print $1}'`; do echo $i $(apt-cache policy $i|grep -A2 Version|tail -n1);done|grep pop-os ) | nc termbin.com 9999 | 22:33 |

| jhutchins | What kind of PC cards (the credit card sized ones) are supported by current versions of Ubuntu? | 22:43 |
| rbox | you mean laptops from the 90s? probalby none | 22:44 |
| rbox | lol | 22:44 |
| leftyfb | jhutchins: you know that's a loaded question. Why do you ask? I can think of at least half a dozen different types of "PC cards" all with their own purposes and drivers | 22:44 |
| jhutchins | leftyfb: The question is whether they are still supported. | 22:44 |
| jhutchins | In Ubuntu. | 22:45 |
| leftyfb | jhutchins: https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/jammy/en/man4/pccard.4freebsd.html probably | 22:45 |
| leftyfb | https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/jammy/man8/pccardctl.8.html | 22:46 |
| oerheks | PCMCIA ? | 22:46 |
| oerheks | all of them, since kernel 2.4 ? | 22:47 |
| jhutchins | oerheks: Isn't that more of an internal bus? | 22:47 |
| jhutchins | oerheks: The ones I have are labeled "PC Card". | 22:47 |
| leftyfb | jhutchins: it would help if you would divulge why you want to know if PCMCIA card will work in ubuntu. They could be a modem, serial, ethernet, wifi, storage, custom interface for a device, etc | 22:48 |
| oerheks | In the past, the cards were known as PCMCIA cards, but they are now referred to as PC cards | 22:48 |
| leftyfb | jhutchins: a model# would help | 22:48 |
| jhutchins | oerheks: So none of them have been deprecated as far as you know? | 22:48 |
| oerheks | https://pcmcia-cs.sourceforge.net/ftp/SUPPORTED.CARDS | 22:48 |
| leftyfb | jhutchins: plug them in and try them | 22:48 |
| oerheks | cards need to be plugged in, before boot. | 22:49 |
| jhutchins | oerheks: Ok, I think the standards might have been a little different too. PC Card may be an inclusive term. | 22:49 |
| elias_a | I actually tested last year if an old firewire card still works. As much as I can remember, the bus worked but firewire was not supported by the kernel anymore. | 22:53 |
| elias_a | Reason for testing: tens of hours of HDV cassettes and the only output in the camcorder is firewire. :) | 22:54 |
| oerheks | it still is .... | 22:55 |
| elias_a | oerheks: Firewire? | 22:57 |
| oerheks | maybe some cards are not supported. | 22:58 |
| oerheks | !find libavc1394 | 23:00 |
| ubottu | Found: libavc1394-0, libavc1394-dev, libavc1394-tools | 23:00 |
| elias_a | oerheks: TY. I'll check the nature of the problem tomorrow. | 23:01 |
| elias_a | Luckily I have several firewire cards with different chipsets... | 23:02 |
| oerheks | there are changes to come .. https://www.phoronix.com/news/Linux-6.1-Staging | 23:03 |
| travisghansen | leftyfb: finally found a sane solution based on priority explanation spelled out here: https://gist.github.com/JPvRiel/8ae81e21ce6397a0502fedddca068507 | 23:07 |
| travisghansen | I just set the ubuntu repos to priority 1001 and did an 'upgrade' which downgraded packages that were 'upgraded' by the pop-os repo...all clean now | 23:07 |
| leftyfb | travisghansen: ( for i in `apt list --installed 2>/dev/null|awk -F/ '{print $1}'`; do echo $i $(apt-cache policy $i|grep -A2 Version|tail -n1);done|grep pop-os ) | nc termbin.com 9999 | 23:08 |
| travisghansen | commented out the priority after that as I have already lowered the priority on the pop repo | 23:08 |
| leftyfb | travisghansen: that will show all the packages installed from pop-os | 23:08 |
| travisghansen | it seems not perfectly no: https://pastebin.com/zTXktQgr | 23:11 |
| leftyfb | you definitely want to roll those back, and remove the system-76 packages | 23:11 |
| travisghansen | I can't remove the system76 packages..I need a functioning fan lol | 23:12 |
| travisghansen | that's the whole reason I have the repo to begin with | 23:12 |
| oerheks | so you are not on 5.15? | 23:13 |
| leftyfb | travisghansen: you'll at least need to roll back the rest including the kernel | 23:13 |
| travisghansen | I'll remove the remaining kernel packages and reboot shortly to 5.15 | 23:13 |
| travisghansen | leftyfb: yeah, will do | 23:14 |
| travisghansen | seems to give me legit details: https://pastebin.com/mhq1NxAE | 23:15 |
| leftyfb | more code and less accurate results, but sure | 23:16 |
| travisghansen | leftyfb: than your command? or something else? | 23:16 |
| leftyfb | yes | 23:16 |
| travisghansen | leftyfb: your command is not valid results..so not really helpful | 23:17 |
| leftyfb | how do you figure? | 23:17 |
| travisghansen | the 'not perfectly' pastebin shows why | 23:17 |
| travisghansen | your command give ubuntu-drivers-common in the output which as shown is *not* installed from their repo | 23:18 |
| travisghansen | (among others) | 23:18 |
| leftyfb | travisghansen: fixed ( for i in `apt list --installed 2>/dev/null|awk -F/ '{print $1}'`; do echo $i $(apt-cache policy $i|grep -A1 -- "\*\*\*"|tail -n1);done|grep pop-os ) | nc termbin.com 9999 | 23:22 |
| travisghansen | leftyfb: those results seem sane yeah | 23:27 |
| travisghansen | significantly slower than the dpkg command but if the results are better I'll keep it | 23:27 |
| leftyfb | it's slower because it's looping through the entire list of packages | 23:28 |
| EriC^^ | travisghansen: if interested https://github.com/ericj112/ppa-tool | 23:39 |
| ravage | EriC^^: does that work randomly added sources? | 23:40 |
| EriC^^ | yeah, that was the whole idea of making it cause ppa-purge only used to work with launchpad | 23:41 |
| ravage | nice | 23:41 |
| leftyfb | EriC^^: damn, even accounted for added repo's that are commented out | 23:42 |
| EriC^^ | :D | 23:43 |
| leftyfb | EriC^^: very nice code, albeit a bit pythony ;) | 23:43 |
| EriC^^ | total amateur coder here, just getting it done type stuff :) | 23:43 |
| hiya | Can I share the post I wrote about choosing Debian or Ubuntu here? | 23:43 |
| ravage | EriC^^: i get "Error: ppa list file doesn't exist, try apt-get update first" for all my PPAs | 23:44 |
| leftyfb | hiya: try #ubuntu-discuss or #ubuntu-offtopic | 23:44 |
| leftyfb | EriC^^: hm, yep, same her | 23:44 |
| leftyfb | here* | 23:45 |
| EriC^^ | ravage: i wonder if the ppa's are added straight to the soruces.list ? i remember it only looking at .list files | 23:45 |
| leftyfb | they're not | 23:45 |
| ravage | sources.list.d | 23:45 |
| leftyfb | I can dig into it more a bit later, gonna get back to not doing this type of stuff before I actually have to do some planned maintenance at 11pm tonight | 23:46 |
| EriC^^ | ravage: getting same thing here, wonder what's changed | 23:49 |
| ravage | maybe it cant handle the new signed-by flags in the list files? | 23:50 |
| ravage | ok. its not "new" but the last script update also was a while back :) | 23:50 |
| ForeverNoob[m] | Hi, FS went RO, rebooted and was met with this: | 23:52 |
| ravage | EriC^^: ppa list file /var/lib/apt/lists/https:__apt.syncthing.net_dists_syncthing_stable_*_Packages doesn't exist | 23:52 |
| * ForeverNoob[m] uploaded an image: (3892KiB) < https://libera.ems.host/_matrix/media/v3/download/matrix.org/aennsefNmTEcRdMujQNoeTrK/20230320_003646_3294930677515730742_20230320003854.jpg > | 23:52 | |
| ForeverNoob[m] | I can't clone my drive right now. Is it safe to run fsck manually like it says? | 23:52 |
| ravage | i added $i to the output. i guess we have to look at those cut commands a little deeper | 23:52 |
| leftyfb | ForeverNoob[m]: I would run a SMART test before doing anything. | 23:53 |
| EriC^^ | ravage: it's cause of the https | 23:53 |
| leftyfb | ForeverNoob[m]: and then take a backup if you don't have one | 23:53 |
| leftyfb | ForeverNoob[m]: and THEN try an fsck | 23:53 |
| oerheks | fsck -f /dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-root | 23:54 |
| ForeverNoob[m] | leftyfb: aren't SMART tests notoriously unreliable on SSDs? | 23:54 |
| leftyfb | ForeverNoob[m]: I don't know about notoriously | 23:54 |
| oerheks | seems like bionic, support ends soon | 23:55 |
| leftyfb | end of April | 23:55 |
| oerheks | why would smart be unreliable? | 23:56 |
| ForeverNoob[m] | Yeah was about to upgrade :( | 23:56 |
| oerheks | as studio switched to KDE, do a fresh install | 23:57 |
| ForeverNoob[m] | It was my understanding that SMART was more a thing for spinning drives. Because of SSD controllers that would give unreliable representation of things. | 23:57 |
| ForeverNoob[m] | OK so there's a Mac near me. I can try to flash a USB stick with sysrescuecd or something in order to do a SMART test. | 23:59 |
