vcxzaHello. I have to use gcc inside a docker container of an ubuntu 20.04 image, in order to build a program with it. Ubuntu 20.04 has gcc 9 as default and I wonder what can be side effects of installing gcc 10 ( https://ahelpme.com/linux/ubuntu/install-and-make-gnu-gcc-10-default-in-ubuntu-20-04-focal/ ) on it, instead of using 9, after it reaches EOL.07:02
weedmicvcxza: you need to have the gcc inside the container - the container should be contained in a way so as to have almost zero affect on the host - unless you specifically setup things like shared internet, folders, etc.  you also can probably find a container that is already setup to work out of the box the way you want.  you should cotnact the poc for the product.07:09
vcxzaweedmic: of course I need gcc inside the container. I wonder if there can be disadvantages of installing gcc 10 on an EOL version07:10
alkisgHi, does anyone know what the little icons in some of the folders in this screenshot mean? https://imgur.com/a/0trFkpb07:11
alkisgAre they from tomboy? How can we remove them? It even seems that caja crashes when trying to enter one of these dirs...07:11
guivercalkisg, no clues if you `stat` them?07:16
guiverc(ie. I'd expect to guess what it's trying to show by what is similar between them, contrasted with other entries in that directory)07:17
alkisgguiverc: they're the same as other dirs; and, renaming them removes the icon; so it's probably handled by some file manager plugin, but I don't see anything related in `ps`, I guess it's in-process plugin07:18
alkisgI tried grepping the tomboy dirs for the directory names to no avail; I'll test more, but it would help if someone already knew what's all this about...07:18
guivercno idea sorry alkisg, all I could think of (don't recall seeing what you showed before)07:19
alkisgThanks! Let's see if anyone else happens to know...07:19

guiverclooking at my own ~ from within caja; only unusual icon there (notepad like without pen in your diagram) appears for non-local directories (ie. network shares)07:21
alkisgHmm, all of ~ is an sshfs mount... so if that was the case, all of them should have the icon...07:22
weedmicvcxza: only if it conflicts with something you rely on or is not supported by your package manager - but... i have successfully used newer items with paitence and a lot of symbolick links.07:30
vcxzaweedmic: https://ahelpme.com/linux/ubuntu/install-and-make-gnu-gcc-10-default-in-ubuntu-20-04-focal/ <--- this is the installation procedure. I don't understand if it relies on something not directly done by the package manager07:32
vcxzaI see "apt upgrade" (which I presume is bad on an EOL) and "update-alternatives" inside it07:33
vcxzaI don't want to make newer gcc work by adjusting stuff with patience...07:35
weedmic20.04 is quite old, but still has life on the support cycle.  i cannot help you.  but, this kammer is full of smart ppl,many using 20.04.07:35
hamoodwell wifi on ubuntu 22 is not working07:36
vcxzaso the question becomes: what can be problematic, with this installation procedure of gcc-10 (  https://ahelpme.com/linux/ubuntu/install-and-make-gnu-gcc-10-default-in-ubuntu-20-04-focal/  ) on ubuntu 20.04 when it goes EOL ?07:37
hid3Greetings everyone. I am preparing linux builds based on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS in my company. However, web developers demand "latest stable releases" for software they use. To name a few, it would be PHP, MariaDB, Nginx, etc. My vision was to use everything from official Ubuntu repositories. However, developers say that versions are outdated, no security and feature upgrades for them, so they want to tahev some custom/additional repos for each product08:14
hid3in this example it would be nginx, php, mariadb08:14
hid3Question: is this really a good idea to have such setup? I like and trust Ubuntu, I know that if you use Ubuntu packages, security and compatability is guaranteed08:15
hid3however, not sure what scenario will be with software installed from custom repos08:15
hid3e.g. php. php doesn't have it's official repo for Ubuntu 22.04. So that random/custom repo would be owned by someone else rather than by php.net officials. Nobody knows what quality of software is provided there, also, nobody can guarantee that repo will be still alive/reachable after 2-3-5 or so years...08:16
hid3these are my main concerns08:16
ravageall the software you mention gets security updates08:19
ravageUbuntu will never have the latest versions. Especially not on LTS releases08:20
ravagei think your "web developers" aka devops should work with the PHP version available08:21
ravageUbuntu 22.04 comes with PHP 8.1 and most project work just fine with it08:21
ravagei dont know a single web project that needs 8.208:21
ravagenginx seems to have some strange behaviour. i used a PPA when i ran into problems here. for both, PHP und nginx  the sury.org repos are a good sourc08:23
ravagee08:23
ravagebut as you said you rely on security and maintenance on this repo then08:23
hid3I pointed out to them basically same info. And their reply was that 'php 8.1 will be EOL sometime this November and after that, there will be NO security updates, because php themselves are not releasing them and backporting it is not possible'08:25
toddcLTS =latest stable vs latest testing is not always better and may have new bugs still present   as ravage said they are maintaied  so unless there is a certain feature in a newer verstion that is needed I avoid the latest08:25
toddceol on PHP means they still maintained but developed stops at EOL date08:27
ravagedebian and ubuntu backport php security fixes for years08:28
ravageso they have no idea what they are talking about08:28
ravageim sure most websites on this internet run on packages provided by the distributions. which is alomost never "latest"08:28
ravagebut devops usually have no idea about the real world outside docker08:29
akikhid3: if you absolutely need newer versions, you can get them via containers but that complicates the setup08:36
hid3points taken. Thanks a lot08:43
myway__Hi, I booted my Ubuntu fine until today, now I'm getting a black screen which is like blinking from no video input to input. The screen is working fine up to the initial disk decryption. Only thing I did yesterday is updating packages (maybe something related to Nvidia?) and adding fuse2 for appimage manager. Any idea what can I do since even safe mode doesn't boot?10:06
william_My Firefox browser is corrupt how do I go about restoring it?10:49
BedManwilliam_: corrupt how? it won't start, or throws errors when you start it, or what?10:55
BedManwilliam_: it's doubtful that the binary is corrupt (although it could be) more likely you config files are borked.  To test that, you can move the .firefox directory in your home dir to something different and try starting it again.  Then if that works, either you're good to go, or put files back from the old dir to the new one until you find out what broke it...10:57
crstHi, really stupid question. I have a running system, it was setup with 4 disks in a RAID (/boot/efi:esp:256M,/boot:ext3:1G,/:ext4:all). I don't want to mess with anything. Is it still possible have a zpool on this system?11:01
=== alkisg_irc is now known as alkisg
weedmichid3: if you want bleeding edge, but mostly well tested, I suggest you try opensuse tumbleweed.  lts is more like leap.  stable, trustworthy, dependable - but not bleeding edge.11:18
BedMancrst: zfs is a filesystem, raid is a hardware solution.  You can use them together, or separately, but moving from one to the other is not possible on a running system without backing everything up, switching things and restoring it again.11:22
weedmicwell, one could add the zfs drive and use rsync to move the data to it and remove the raid - but I have doubts there is added value in that.11:23
=== phonemic5 is now known as phonemic
BedMancrst: it's also dependent if you have your boot disk on the raid volume...11:25
BedManpossible to move things if not, if so then backup, and rebuild with zfs11:25
crstBedMan: Gotcha! So it's not possible to have ZFS virtually on top of another FS. Since my filesystem is already set to something else an option would be to add new disks and make those ZFS, right?11:26

gareppathat's the thing, the grub menu is still far away, as soon as the bios goes away, I have the blinking cursor. also, the disk does not seem to be reading anything12:51
gareppanope, i do not get to the point of advanced options12:51
ioriagareppa, so you don't have Grub correctly installed, maybe ?12:52
gareppamaybe12:53
ioriagareppa, in this case, you need the installer, openluks, mount bind ,chroot and reinstall grub (or just reinstall)12:54

MagissiaI'm on 18.04 (no upgrade in sight for me yet, kernel 5.4). What happens when connecting the dock is the whole interface freeze for 2 seconds, then new lines are shown if I do an lspci. there are few dmesg lines I do not understand15:27
MagissiaNothing else after that15:27

MagissiaShould the spec sheet specifically mention linux support for the TB2 dock ? (It is the case for the startech one, but i'd rather try a completely different brand while we are at it, and most only say macos)15:43
thriceFantastic777: can you not update versions?  20.04 is pretty old15:43
MagissiaFantastic777: Are you able to reproduce the issue from the livecd ?15:43
Fantastic777See full image here: https://ibb.co/mbHdD9815:43

Fantastic777See gist here: https://gist.github.com/Ativerc/9ff73a1d0f3209e640c2fe08b7fcac9415:44
MagissiaFantastic777: It fails to fetch update atm, could you try to reproduce it from a livecd to exclude a configuration error?15:45
Fantastic777I don't have a liveusb at the moment. Also, reproducing the problem is hard since I don't know what causes it.15:45
Fantastic777Magissia, could you check my github gist link and see the nvidia packages that are being held back. Could that be causing the problems?15:46
MagissiaHonestly i'm only good with servers and we don't have display issues over ssh. You're using gdm and I never used that (i'm using lightdm)15:48
Fantastic777thrice, Is upgrading without a fresh install AFTER making a backup of the home folder in another partition, safe?15:49
MagissiaIt's always safe if you have a working backup since you can restore15:49
MagissiaBackup your whole system if installing the system back could be difficult for you15:50
thriceby no fresh install, you mean upgrading from 20.04 to 22.04?15:51
MagissiaHonestly, you have the obs ppa, verify if restoring the packages from there to their default canonical provided version helps15:51
MagissiaAlso you're using snaps and I have no idea how it works, i remove snapd on my installations15:52
Fantastic777thrice, yes from 20.04 to 22.0415:53
Fantastic777i wanted to switch to popOS rather than upgrading this ubuntu 20.0415:54
MagissiaYou will have a different kernel and DE, would be a different experience15:55
MagissiaWon't be an inplace upgrade there15:55
Fantastic777Magissia, hence trying to make sure i have 20,04 -> 22.04 as an upgrade otion for now.15:55
Fantastic777Okay I removed obs15:56
MagissiaMake a full backup and go for it, if you're using btrfs you can make a snapshot, if you're using ext4 you can use timeshift15:56
Fantastic777i installed afew things yesterday and this didn't freeze up before that...15:56

mmillerhello everyone. since today I cannot boot my ubuntu 23.04 any longer without setting nomodeset in grub2 before booting. I suspect something is wrong with the amdgpu driver, as this is the last syslog line I get before the boot process finally is stuck (prior to even being able to show the password dialog for the LUKS encryption): amdgpu 0000:0d:00.0: [drm:jpeg_v4_0_early_init [amdgpu]] JPEG decode is enabled in VM mode19:01
mmillerthe Xorg log file btw says "(EE) AMDGPU(0): [drm] Failed to open DRM device for pci:0000:0d:00.0: No such file or directory" before telling me that it unloaded the amdgpu module. It then goes on trying to load the ati_drv module, which doesn't seem to be compatible with my GPU.19:01

UndrWaterIs it possible to install Ubuntu server from a standard Ubuntu install USB?20:43
thricethat's a vague question, but "ubuntu-server" is a metapackage20:44
thricen20:44
oerheksnot sure bitchx is SALS compatible20:45
ravageUndrWater: you install it from the ubuntu server iso20:45
oerhekshighrate, of no use with #libera https://libera.chat/guides/sasl20:46
oerhekslatest version 2014 🤣20:46
UndrWaterravage: so that means no go with the graphical iso?20:47
oerheksUndrWater, sure, but you loose cpu power to a desktop.20:48
oerheksif you want so, use a lightweight one like xubuntu, standard is gnome20:48
UndrWateroerheks: just hoping there was a way to install server from the USB I already had running. I'll create a server USB.20:49
oerheksNo, after install you would need to remove the desktop metapackage.. easier to start over with server iso indeed20:50
UndrWaterOk. I was hoping for some kind of "secret handshake". Thanks!20:51

cbreakyou can install stuff manually via debootstrap21:03
cbreakbut it's very inconvenient21:03
UndrWatercbreak: so...easier to use the server iso. it's writing now. appreciate the help folks.21:16
cbreakindeed21:16
cbreakUndrWater: do you know ventoy?21:16
UndrWatercbreak: sounds familiar, but not sure why21:17
cbreakI've tried it a few times and it seems quite convenient21:17
cbreakit's a boot usb software that allows you to boot from any iso or other image that you copy to it21:17
cbreakno need to make a separate usb stick for each system21:17
UndrWateri see. looks useful.21:18
cbreakI have a stick that can boot various kubuntu versions, stock ubuntu, server ubuntu, some other linuxes, and even windows.21:18
cbreak(at least they claim it supports windows, I've not tried that)21:18
UndrWateri made something like that a few years ago.21:18
UndrWaterbut the images get outdated so quickly21:18
cbreakubuntu lts seems to stay relevant for some time, and some of the tool images (memtest, ...) as well.21:20
cbreakbut I mostly use it to not have to deal with etcher or what ever21:21

floogyHi, I somewhat pushed nano in a mode that I don't know, now it doesn't react on ctrl+ cmds like ^X22:09
floogyI can't quit it.22:10
jaxctrl+D and ctrl+C don't do anything at all?22:11
Aavar_floogy: escape?22:12
floogyIt shows: [ Zeile 33/66 (50%), Spalte 43/52 ( 82%), Zeichen 1049/1991 (52%) ] above the cmds on bottom. (de->en: Zeile:line, Spalte: column, Zeichen: char)22:12
oerheksone of these ? https://www.nano-editor.org/dist/v2.1/nano.html#Feature-Toggles22:12
jaxare you sure it's nano?22:12
floogyNo, ESC, CTRL+Z, CRTL+D or the like do nothing.22:12
jaxctrl+G should show help info22:13
Aavar_floogy: if it's a one time deal you kan kill it from another terminal.22:13

floogyI don't know the meta key22:13
jaxmeta key?22:13
floogyoerheks, Meta-Z should do the trick22:14
floogyjax, none of the CTRL+ cmds are functional in this mode22:15
jaxand it shows nothing in the first row, and  no commands at the bottom?22:16
floogyAavar_, okay. I'll log into another ssh.22:16
jaxbtw, from nano's help: Meta-key sequences are notated with 'M-' and can be entered22:17
jax using either the Alt, Cmd, or Esc key, depending on your keyboard setup.22:17
jaxpressing F2 should quit nano as well22:17
floogyjax, thank you. I'll try esc then ...22:17
floogynothing works, I'll ssh into another console and killall nano22:19
floogy  GNU nano 6.222:19

floogyAh, I think it's more an issue of GNOME-Terminal, because thea terminal isn't functional.22:22
floogyTerminal>read only is set. I unselected that. Now it works. What's the short-key for that? It seems, I used CRTL+S. In a Terminal CRTL+Q or C seems to unfreeze it. I#m not sure though https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/12107/how-to-unfreeze-after-accidentally-pressing-ctrl-s-in-a-terminal22:31
