[00:52] ubuntu ahhh i see [01:17] 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] desolate030: sudo systemctl daemon-reload [01:21] mh no doesn't work unfortunately [01:26] 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] what do you mean "initialization of network interfaces" [01:29] desolate030: why are you messing with systemd for network configs? [01:33] 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] applied to the interface without a reboot. [01:34] desolate030: why are you using systemd-network as opposed to netplan? [01:34] desolate030: you could try restarting systemd-networkd [01:35] 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] 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] udev runs when devices are created on boot [01:38] you could try unloading and reloading the module for your network device [01:40] 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] rbox: how do i do that? [01:40] rmmod and modprobe [01:43] rbox this worked, thanks!! === doob is now known as uuuser [01:47] hi there i have a strange problem with my sharkoon xt duo clone device [01:47] it is registered by the kernel but hdds dont show up [01:47] how do i resolve this issue? [01:47] what do you mean "registered by the kernel" [01:48] can also post necessary logs [01:48] rbox, i mean that the device shows up in dmesg [01:48] uuuser: do you have it plugged into a power source and power button on? [01:48] what doeos dmesg say [01:49] leftyfb, yeah lol [01:52] rbox, need a second [01:52] sorry [01:52] rofl [01:53] https://pastes.io/etkgp1eeb8 [01:54] device is now plugged in my notebook and a hdd is inserted to it [01:54] doesnt show up in "files" [01:54] or nothing [01:55] can create other pastes as well [01:57] uuuser: does it show up in: lsblk [01:57] no [01:57] uuuser: does it show up if you plug it into another computer running another OS? [01:58] leftyfb, don't really know sorry [01:58] its a usb 3.0 device so that can be the issue [01:58] uuuser: do you have another computer running a different OS? Do you have a different OS dual boot on this computer? [01:59] could create a live stick [01:59] would this be enough? [01:59] i am on a freshly installation 23.10 ubuntu here [02:02] leftyfb, cant really test it on another os [02:07] `udevadm monitor` while attaching the disk might help in debugging. [02:10] topcat001, https://pastes.io/gkck4keum5 [02:10] showing udevadm monitor first unplugged the replugged the device into notebook [02:16] I'm very sorry to abandon you but I need to go AFK. [02:17] topcat001, ok cheers [02:18] Although we are discussing Ubuntu I always find this extremely useful to consult: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Udev [06:43] hi [06:56] 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] What component, package I should put but against? [07:00] It does not show when I need to select file. Thenk I can enter the path. But when I need to enter folder itself.

Used to be init to switch runlevels [09:18] /msg NickServ IDENTIFY adam_ 2010 [09:22] well you can change your password before logging out of that account [09:25] and maybe make the new password a bit stronger [09:26] how to do that [09:26] how do i log out [09:29] this is so crazy it sounds like trolling [09:29] _first_ change your password, _then_ log out. You find a thousand IRC guides online to do that [09:30] ok [09:32] guess il stay like this [11:01] j === docmax is now known as Guest3891 [12:21] Hi all === hdn is now known as firewalldt === tristan__ is now known as tristan_ === lektor is now known as paul424 [14:06] Ť [14:06] HEllo, the mic does not work with skype. How do I test my microphone under U in general ? [14:50] How do I make my laptop mic work ? under ubuntu of course ? I have asus x50gl series.... [14:50] Help me Obi-WAn you are my last hope .... :D [14:52] !patience | lektor [14:52] lektor: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or https://ubuntuforums.org or https://askubuntu.com/ [15:25] oki I coped myself with the problem, the only thing is : when recording with audcity there is a background noise ..... [15:25] donno , which of the alsamixer settings it depends [15:26] but I am getting closer of the goal of having afuntional machine X50SERRIES with skype [15:27] 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] 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] yes, usually it means you caught an inconsistent mirror [15:31] approaches that have worked me are (a) switching mirrors, or (b) waiting [15:31] yeah I replaced nl.archive with archive [15:31] I'm afraid waiting is the best, too bad I had scheduled maintenance for now :') [15:31] not sure you'd end up on a different machine then - depending on where you are [15:32] 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] ugh [15:32] might depend on your ISP [15:32] so I guess there are multiple machines and some are out of sync? [15:32] indeed, archive has 5 separate IPs for me [15:33] it might make sense to look at the ubuntu mirror list and pick one very explicitly [15:33] nl.archive goes to BIT for me, I've never had trouble with them [15:33] whenever they've had trouble, they were not alone [15:34] 'getting lucky' here may mean 'finding a mirror that is just a day behind altogether' [15:34] so you can at least continue your work [15:34] haha [15:34] thanks :) [15:37] lifeforms, fwiw, archive.ubuntu.com works for me right now [15:37] Habbie: nice! [15:37] uh, let me check i tested with the right package [15:38] ii linux-image-5.4.0-164-generic 5.4.0-164.181 amd64 Signed kernel image generic [15:38] yes [15:38] now trying nl.archive [15:39] 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] also works.. weird that you have trouble [15:39] is your RAM ok? [15:39] ehhmm I hope so... this is a VM on a mac, and it was cheaper RAM than the official apple RAM :) [15:39] haha [15:40] I could try a different machine [15:40] or it could be the network [15:40] nl.archive supports https [15:40] trying https might rule out a few theories [15:56] interestingly a machine in the datacenter does not have trouble with nl.archive :) [15:56] you should try https :D [15:56] which DC? I'm guessing not BIT :D [15:57] intermax and it's hitting archive :) [15:57] archive or nl.archive? [15:57] ehhh nl.archive sorry [15:57] lifeforms Habbie check https://status.canonical.com/ [15:57] right [15:57] seems like git had issues yesterdays [15:58] right [15:58] lotuspsychj3: cool! [15:58] thanks [15:58] but it's green today [15:58] and git shouldn't be involved in this problem [15:58] but it's good to check, yes :) [16:03] 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] sadly security.ubuntu.com doesn't seem to support https [16:04] that's the same package as in your paste [16:04] yeah but now it is apparently coming from security.ubuntu.com [16:04] oh [16:04] I must admit I dont know enough about apt as I should [16:05] the actual question might be "what lives on archive and what lives on security and do i really need both" [16:05] spent too long on FreeBSD :) [16:05] which is a question i also often struggle with, both in ubuntu and in debian [16:05] i remember, some years ago, that security.debian.org was one machine at XS4ALL [16:05] for the world [16:05] awesome [16:05] well, sometimes it struggled :D [16:49] 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] i mean, i would go to the skype website and follow the instructions... [16:51] snap... [16:52] Why are very low on resources here ... [16:53] what? [16:54] DO you know what snaps are ? [16:54] it disallows the sharing of shared libraries and such... [16:55] THE HORROR === tomaw_ is now known as tomaw === nikolam_ is now known as nikolam [18:57] hello all [19:01] hi [19:07] Havint issues with setting up my samba share, any one got a time to kindly assist? [19:07] how can anyone know if they can help if you haevn't said what the problem is? [19:08] I can see them root smb shares on my network but not the actual shared content/shared folfers/files [19:10] 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] 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] @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] 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] 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] can i fix it? [20:20] i'm not entirely sure this question is for #ubuntu, but let's see [20:20] can you say more words about "nested lxd"? nested in what? [20:20] proxmox [20:21] more words :) [20:21] i have a proxmox server , and i installed a ubuntu vm [20:21] and i ran lxd in ubuntu vm [20:21] right [20:21] that sounds like proxmox might not be relevant to the question [20:21] but lxd is [20:22] yes [20:23] is there a way i can change the nic type (like virtio_net or e1000eand ...)while i am creating the vm? [20:24] -that- sounds like a proxmox question [20:24] why? [20:24] there is a qemu.raw option in lxd api [20:24] ok, then it's a qemu question :) [20:25] and i can override the settings [20:25] kinda :D [21:51] 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] aha , thank you [21:51] it actually is an Ubuntu kernel [21:52] only the rest of the system is Debian [21:52] umm, i guess that makes it even more unsupportable here. ;) [21:52] or anywhere [21:53] well, a proxmox specific channel or #linux could work [21:53] right, i was thinking narrowly [21:53] there is ##proxmox [21:53] "not #debian either" [21:53] ravage, perfect [21:53] my bad.
