[00:52] <Darkness-itemo> ubuntu ahhh i see
[01:17] <desolate030> hey guys, I renamed an interface with a systemd.link file. Can I trigger a rescan or whatever for the system to recognize this change without reboot? Nothing worked so far
[01:18] <leftyfb> desolate030: sudo systemctl daemon-reload
[01:21] <desolate030> mh no doesn't work unfortunately
[01:26] <desolate030> can someone recommend an in-depth guide about the initialization of network interfaces i struggle to really understand whats happening, and why a reboot solves the problem
[01:28] <rbox> what do you mean "initialization of network interfaces"
[01:29] <leftyfb> desolate030: why are you messing with systemd for network configs?
[01:33] <desolate030> i am configuring network via systemd-network. To replace the standard ifname, i create a ".link" file in /etc/systemd/network, which maps a MACAddress to a custom name (https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.link.html). This works, however only after a reboot the custom ifname is applied. I am looking for a way to get the new name
[01:33] <desolate030> applied to the interface without a reboot.
[01:34] <leftyfb> desolate030: why are you using systemd-network as opposed to netplan?
[01:34] <rbox> desolate030: you could try restarting systemd-networkd
[01:35] <desolate030> leftyfb: i want to understand how it works and be able to do this without netplan as i also have some almalinux servers and i would prefer directly configuring it rather than using netplan
[01:36] <desolate030> rbox: unfortunately that doesn't do the trick, reading the documentation the process is connected to systemd-udevd but its not very clear to me how it works in detail
[01:37] <rbox> udev runs when devices are created on boot
[01:38] <rbox> you could try unloading and reloading the module for your network device
[01:40] <desolate030> what i see in dmesg after boot is the following: vmxnet3 ens192: renamed from eth0; vmxnet3 test_crosrv0057: renamed from ens192 so i was wondering if i could repeat this without doing a whole reboot
[01:40] <desolate030> rbox: how do i do that?
[01:40] <rbox> rmmod and modprobe
[01:43] <desolate030> rbox this worked, thanks!!
[01:47] <uuuser> hi there i have a strange problem with my sharkoon xt duo clone device
[01:47] <uuuser> it is registered by the kernel but hdds dont show up
[01:47] <uuuser> how do i resolve this issue?
[01:47] <rbox> what do you mean "registered by the kernel"
[01:48] <uuuser> can also post necessary logs
[01:48] <uuuser> rbox, i mean that the device shows up in dmesg
[01:48] <leftyfb> uuuser: do you have it plugged into a power source and power button on?
[01:48] <rbox> what doeos dmesg say
[01:49] <uuuser> leftyfb, yeah lol
[01:52] <uuuser> rbox, need a second
[01:52] <uuuser> sorry
[01:52] <rbox> rofl
[01:53] <uuuser> https://pastes.io/etkgp1eeb8
[01:54] <uuuser> device is now plugged in my notebook and a hdd is inserted to it
[01:54] <uuuser> doesnt show up in "files"
[01:54] <uuuser> or nothing
[01:55] <uuuser> can create other pastes as well
[01:57] <leftyfb> uuuser: does it show up in: lsblk
[01:57] <uuuser> no
[01:57] <leftyfb> uuuser: does it show up if you plug it into another computer running another OS?
[01:58] <uuuser> leftyfb, don't really know sorry
[01:58] <uuuser> its a usb 3.0 device so that can be the issue
[01:58] <leftyfb> uuuser: do you have another computer running a different OS? Do you have a different OS dual boot on this computer?
[01:59] <uuuser> could create a live stick
[01:59] <uuuser> would this be enough?
[01:59] <uuuser> i am on a freshly installation 23.10 ubuntu here
[02:02] <uuuser> leftyfb, cant really test it on another os
[02:07] <topcat001> `udevadm monitor` while attaching the disk might help in debugging.
[02:10] <uuuser> topcat001, https://pastes.io/gkck4keum5
[02:10] <uuuser> showing udevadm monitor first unplugged the replugged the device into notebook
[02:16] <topcat001> I'm very sorry to abandon you but I need to go AFK.
[02:17] <uuuser> topcat001, ok cheers
[02:18] <topcat001> Although we are discussing Ubuntu I always find this extremely useful to consult: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Udev
[06:43] <Drukarex> hi
[06:56] <nikolam> If there is a bug (Regression I think) in Xubuntu 22.04, with GTK opening window, requesting for a folder and there is Ctrl+L not working e.g. I can enter path but can not select it in Ctrl+L window.
[06:56] <nikolam> What component, package I should put but against?
[07:00] <nikolam> It does not show when I need to select file. Thenk I can enter the path. But when I need to enter folder itself.
[07:08] <xangua> nikolam:

[08:59] <Darkness-itemo> for your business
[09:10] <circle> in ubuntu how does one bring up or down the desktop environment or switch between single user, multiuser (text) and graphical interface?  Used to be init to switch runlevels
[09:18] <adam_>  /msg NickServ IDENTIFY adam_ 2010
[09:22] <danza> well you can change your password before logging out of that account
[09:25] <tykling_> and maybe make the new password a bit stronger
[09:26] <adam_> how to do that
[09:26] <adam_> how do i log out
[09:29] <danza> this is so crazy it sounds like trolling
[09:29] <danza> _first_ change your password, _then_ log out. You find a thousand IRC guides online to do that
[09:30] <adam_> ok
[09:32] <adam_> guess il stay like this

[12:21] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[14:06] <dbreeden> Ť
[14:06] <paul424> HEllo, the mic does not work with skype. How do I test my microphone under U in general  ?
[14:50] <lektor> How do I make my laptop mic work ? under ubuntu of course ? I have asus x50gl series....
[14:50] <lektor> Help me Obi-WAn you are my last hope .... :D
[14:52] <toddc> !patience | lektor
[15:25] <lektor_> oki  I coped myself with the problem, the only thing is : when recording with audcity there is a background noise .....
[15:25] <lektor_> donno , which of the alsamixer settings it depends
[15:26] <lektor_> but I am getting closer of the goal of having afuntional machine X50SERRIES with skype
[15:27] <lifeforms> Hi all, is there a known problem with the archives? When trying to update a box, I am getting a lot of "Hash Sum mismatch" errors. It varies between invocations, but one example is "Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux-signed/linux-image-5.4.0-164-generic_5.4.0-164.181_amd64.deb  Hash Sum mismatch" (https://lf.ms/hash_sum_mismatch.txt for full message). I've tried a few
[15:27] <lifeforms> times. I did a "sudo apt-get clean" and "sudo rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*". Did I catch the archive in an inconsistent state? What is my best course of action?
[15:30] <Habbie> yes, usually it means you caught an inconsistent mirror
[15:31] <Habbie> approaches that have worked me are (a) switching mirrors, or (b) waiting
[15:31] <lifeforms> yeah I replaced nl.archive with archive
[15:31] <lifeforms> I'm afraid waiting is the best, too bad I had scheduled maintenance for now :')
[15:31] <Habbie> not sure you'd end up on a different machine then - depending on where you are
[15:32] <lifeforms> I tried to 'host' them and they returned different IPs, and they also have different mismatching files for some reason... but archive.ubuntu.com was a bit better... it actually succeeded once, but then failed again!
[15:32] <Habbie> ugh
[15:32] <ioria> might depend on your ISP
[15:32] <lifeforms> so I guess there are multiple machines and some are out of sync?
[15:32] <Habbie> indeed, archive has 5 separate IPs for me
[15:33] <Habbie> it might make sense to look at the ubuntu mirror list and pick one very explicitly
[15:33] <lifeforms> nl.archive goes to BIT for me, I've never had trouble with them
[15:33] <Habbie> whenever they've had trouble, they were not alone
[15:34] <Habbie> 'getting lucky' here may mean 'finding a mirror that is just a day behind altogether'
[15:34] <Habbie> so you can at least continue your work
[15:34] <lifeforms> haha
[15:34] <lifeforms> thanks :)
[15:37] <Habbie> lifeforms, fwiw, archive.ubuntu.com works for me right now
[15:37] <lifeforms> Habbie: nice!
[15:37] <Habbie> uh, let me check i tested with the right package
[15:38] <Habbie> ii  linux-image-5.4.0-164-generic   5.4.0-164.181                amd64        Signed kernel image generic
[15:38] <Habbie> yes
[15:38] <Habbie> now trying nl.archive
[15:39] <lifeforms> it's really strange. Now I am also getting "E: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/git-core/ppa/ubuntu/pool/main/g/git/git_2.42.0-0ppa1~ubuntu20.04.1_amd64.deb  Hash Sum mismatch"
[15:39] <Habbie> also works.. weird that you have trouble
[15:39] <Habbie> is your RAM ok?
[15:39] <lifeforms> ehhmm I hope so... this is a VM on a mac, and it was cheaper RAM than the official apple RAM :)
[15:39] <Habbie> haha
[15:40] <lifeforms> I could try a different machine
[15:40] <Habbie> or it could be the network
[15:40] <Habbie> nl.archive supports https
[15:40] <Habbie> trying https might rule out a few theories
[15:56] <lifeforms> interestingly a machine in the datacenter does not have trouble with nl.archive :)
[15:56] <Habbie> you should try https :D
[15:56] <Habbie> which DC? I'm guessing not BIT :D
[15:57] <lifeforms> intermax and it's hitting archive :)
[15:57] <Habbie> archive or nl.archive?
[15:57] <lifeforms> ehhh nl.archive sorry
[15:57] <lotuspsychj3> lifeforms Habbie check https://status.canonical.com/
[15:57] <Habbie> right
[15:57] <lotuspsychj3> seems like git had issues yesterdays
[15:58] <Habbie> right
[15:58] <lifeforms> lotuspsychj3: cool!
[15:58] <Habbie> thanks
[15:58] <Habbie> but it's green today
[15:58] <Habbie> and git shouldn't be involved in this problem
[15:58] <Habbie> but it's good to check, yes :)
[16:03] <lifeforms> my VM is still complaining, now about Err:1 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal-updates/main amd64 linux-image-5.4.0-164-generic amd64 5.4.0-164.181 Hash Sum mismatch
[16:03] <lifeforms> sadly security.ubuntu.com doesn't seem to support https
[16:04] <Habbie> that's the same package as in your paste
[16:04] <lifeforms> yeah but now it is apparently coming from security.ubuntu.com
[16:04] <Habbie> oh
[16:04] <lifeforms> I must admit I dont know enough about apt as I should
[16:05] <Habbie> the actual question might be "what lives on archive and what lives on security and do i really need both"
[16:05] <lifeforms> spent too long on FreeBSD :)
[16:05] <Habbie> which is a question i also often struggle with, both in ubuntu and in debian
[16:05] <Habbie> i remember, some years ago, that security.debian.org was one machine at XS4ALL
[16:05] <Habbie> for the world
[16:05] <lifeforms> awesome
[16:05] <Habbie> well, sometimes it struggled :D
[16:49] <paul424> Hello, hello how I am supposed to install skype ? Why are some methods on the internet mentions using debian repository? With that I end up with skype whichh cannot record sound ...
[16:50] <rbox> i mean, i would go to the skype website and follow the instructions...
[16:51] <paul424> snap...
[16:52] <paul424> Why are very low on resources here ...
[16:53] <rbox> what?
[16:54] <paul424> DO you know what snaps are ?
[16:54] <paul424> it disallows the sharing of shared libraries and such...
[16:55] <rbox> THE HORROR
[18:57] <Wolver1n3> hello all
[19:01] <spratle> hi
[19:07] <Wolver1n3> Havint issues with setting up my samba share, any one got a time to kindly assist?
[19:07] <rbox> how can anyone know if they can help if you haevn't said what the problem is?
[19:08] <Wolver1n3> I can see them root smb shares on my network but not the actual shared content/shared folfers/files
[19:10] <Wolver1n3> Also they shared files are stored in a NTFS formarted USB. I am thinking the NTFS has something to do with it somew sort of file permission, but I am no samba expert hence here
[19:35] <rfm> Wolver1n3, probably you need to add an smbpasswd for the user that can read the files on the smbserver (probably you, if you just let the system automount it.)  https://www.techrepublic.com/article/how-to-add-and-enable-users-for-samba-share/
[19:44] <Wolver1n3> @rfm I will give that a try again. I am almost sure the users (no shell) were created in both Ubuntu OS and samba, as well as enabled.
[19:49] <rfm> Wolver1n3, you should check that the users can get to the files on the samba server (hard to do if they don't have a shell).  Check permisstionjs, user/group ownership on the NTFS system, make sure the users match that.
[20:17] <Guest35> hi , i am getting "qemu-system-x86_64: Issue while setting TUNSETSTEERINGEBPF: Invalid argument with fd: 42, prog_fd: -1" error in nested lxd inside proxmox , the VMs wont take ipv4, its random and by restart it may or may not fixed the issue, i tried virtio and e1000e nic type on lxd host and did not fix it, any idea why this is happening and how
[20:17] <Guest35> can i fix it?
[20:20] <Habbie> i'm not entirely sure this question is for #ubuntu, but let's see
[20:20] <Habbie> can you say more words about "nested lxd"? nested in what?
[20:20] <Guest30> proxmox
[20:21] <Habbie> more words :)
[20:21] <Guest30> i have a proxmox server , and i installed a ubuntu  vm
[20:21] <Guest30> and i ran lxd in ubuntu vm
[20:21] <Habbie> right
[20:21] <Habbie> that sounds like proxmox might not be relevant to the question
[20:21] <Habbie> but lxd is
[20:22] <Guest30> yes
[20:23] <Guest30> is there a way i can change the nic type (like virtio_net or e1000eand ...)while i am creating the vm?
[20:24] <Habbie> -that- sounds like a proxmox question
[20:24] <Guest30> why?
[20:24] <Guest30> there is a qemu.raw option in lxd api
[20:24] <Habbie> ok, then it's a qemu question :)
[20:25] <Guest30> and i can override the settings
[20:25] <Guest30> kinda :D
[21:51] <tomreyn> Guest30: if i recall correctly, proxmox uses a different kernel than ubuntu, which would make it not-actually-ubuntu, and would make it much harder to support it here. there's probably a proxmox channel around here, also (as there is one for #lxc ). !alis let's you search channels.
[21:51] <Guest30> aha , thank you
[21:51] <ravage> it actually is an Ubuntu kernel
[21:52] <ravage> only the rest of the system is Debian
[21:52] <tomreyn> umm, i guess that makes it even more unsupportable here. ;)
[21:52] <Habbie> or anywhere
[21:53] <tomreyn> well, a proxmox specific channel or #linux could work
[21:53] <Habbie> right, i was thinking narrowly
[21:53] <ravage> there is ##proxmox
[21:53] <Habbie> "not #debian either"
[21:53] <Habbie> ravage, perfect
[21:53] <Guest30> my bad.
