[00:51] <webchat64> Could anyone give pointers on recovering functionality after an Ubuntu install running on ZFS ran out of disk space? I managed to mount and decrypt the drive (SSD) when attached to a different computer — from terminal; nautilus and disks are not able to mount "zfs_member" partitions — despite my limited knowledge of ZFS and warning about
[00:51] <webchat64> corruption of two files in keystore, but have not managed to get it to a bootable state.
[00:51] <webchat64> When booting normally, it hangs after cryptsetup, accepting no input. If I press escape before it hangs, I see errors that all seem to be related to missing files/filesystems as various services attempt to start.
[00:52] <webchat64> If I press escape before cryptsetup enough times, I am able to get to an initramfs prompt (BusyBox). It shows errors with a mount command, mentioning "missing key-material". However, from that prompt I am able to manually manually mount ZFS root partition etc. However, when I exit and continue, it hangs even though I have mounted what apparently
[00:52] <webchat64> failed to mount due to missing key material.
[00:52] <webchat64> When I boot into recovery mode, I am able to get (sometimes) to a blinking underscore, from which I am able to drop to a virtual terminal with ctrl+alt+f3, which has a mostly functional TUI. However, "startx" does not startx, and I have not managed to get a functional GUI even from recovery mode.

[10:09] <ix__> I've installed apache and I'm running some website, I can see it on my network with 192.168... but I can't view it from outsite my network, even if I've done port forwarding for port 80 and 443, I can also access the website by entering a strange IP address that my router seemed to have, something starting with 100, have no idea what that is, but it only worked after the port forwarding
[10:11] <Habbie> 100.64 is the CGN range
[10:11] <Habbie> if your router has an IP in that range, it means the actual external IP is likely shared between multiple customers

[10:12] <Habbie> (actually 100.64 - 100.127)
[10:12] <ix__> ok, it fits the pattern, thank you

[10:21] <SteelRose> Hi all! Every now and then I use phpMyAdmin. The problem I have is that I haven't found to install it in an non-interactive way.
[10:21] <SteelRose> whenever I run "apt install phpmyadmin" I must go through some manual steps (see screenshots here https://www.arubacloud.com/tutorial/how-to-install-phpmyadmin-on-ubuntu-20-04.aspx)

[13:54] <ogra> elias_a, have you tried to put a sheet of paper into your automotive board ? perhaps 23.10 unlocked a secret feature 😄
[13:54] <Teridon> I'm running into issue after I patched an Ubuntu 22.04 system https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/724678/why-does-grub-fail-to-auto-boot-when-no-keyboard-is-connected .  I've worked around it in the past by setting the grub timeout to 0, but that makes it impossible to get into grub if I need to
[13:55] <CosmicDJ> hwpplayer1: I'm not quite sure you can compress 32G virtual RAM into 8G hardware RAM...
[13:56] <hwpplayer1> CosmicDJ: But it seems working
[13:56] <arraybolt3> CosmicDJ: Depending on the data stored in RAM, true, but sometimes that might be plausible.
[13:56] <arraybolt3> (that 32GB would fit in 8GB after compression)
[13:57] <arraybolt3> Realisticly I'd expect more like 24GB or so, plus things *will* slow down as you approach the capacity of RAM
[13:57] <hwpplayer1> Thanks
[13:57] <arraybolt3> also hwpplayer1 you may want to increase your system's swappiness so that it starts compressing RAM sooner.
[13:57] <arraybolt3> Otherwise you may experience issues when your physical RAM fills up *before* compression and your system starts compressing stuff to stay afloat.
[13:57] <jscript>  is   https://github.com/HolyBlackCat/quasi-msys2   recommended for cross compiling to windows on ubuntu ?
[13:58] <hwpplayer1> My friend told me that your CPU will work more and more and you will see some perfomance slowing
[13:58] <ogra> you surely will
[13:58] <arraybolt3> jscript: Generally anything from an arbitrary repo on GitHub is *not* recommended on Ubuntu per se. It might work, but you usually want to get stuff from the official archives.
[13:58] <ogra> with such a high compression rate this is unavoidable
[13:59] <jscript> how do i install a msys2 environment on ubuntu
[14:00] <arraybolt3> jscript: It doesn't look like any form of MSYS2 is in the Ubuntu repos (at least not on 22.04 LTS). So while there may be ways of installing it, none of them are going to be supported here most likely since we can't guarantee that any of those other ways will work, nor do we have experience using them.
[14:00] <arraybolt3> mingw is in the official repos though.
[14:00] <arraybolt3> I don't know enough about Windows cross-compilation to know if that will do what you need, but I know it's a tool oftentimes used for that sort of thing

[16:25] <cryptonector> or what I might do from install media to fix it

[16:27] <cryptonector> it doesn't see the wifi device
[16:28] <cryptonector> I'm guessing I need to install something from media

[17:07] <wad> Hi folks. I'd like to do stuff like `cat foo | xclip`, then press ALT-TAB to get to a different app, and press CTRL-C to paste. But the contents aren't there. If I press the middle-mouse button, they paste, but I don't want to reach for the mouse again. Thoughts?
[17:21] <PeGaSuS> wad: CTRL-C is to copy.. usually it's CTRL-V to paste
[17:21] <wad> Oh yeah, typo.
[17:21] <wad> CTRL-V to paste what I'd copied via the `xclip` command in the terminal, is what I'd like to get working.
[17:23] <webchat12> is the ~/.local/share/keyrings/login.keyring the file where the smb passwords are stored?
[17:23] <PeGaSuS> it should be available with CTRL-V for UI text editors and CTRL-SHIFT-V for terminal
[17:23] <PeGaSuS> that's rather weird

[20:38] <Eickmeyer> Guest63: Actually, as I see it, the milestone for that is GNOME 46, so it might not get into Ubuntu 23.10. Might have to wait for 24.04 which will have GNOME 46.

[23:25] <cryptonector> I've a laptop with an OEM install of Ubuntu 22.04, I've installed Ubuntu 22.04 w/ ZFS root on an external drive, but some things (like wifi) don't work on the ZFS install -- what do I have to do to install OEM drivers and such from the original install?
[23:26] <cryptonector> I installed all pkgs on the ZFS rpool that I could that are also on the original; there's a few that apt can't find, even though I have the same /etc/apt/sources.list -- where would I find those?
[23:45] <cryptonector> the dmesg looks surprisingly different between the two
[23:46] <guiverc> cryptonector, LTS releases have kernel stack choices; the install media dictates the default; Server use GA, Desktop defaults HWE & flavors vary on media (original & .1 use GA, HWE for .2 & later).  that difference (inc. kernel modules used) is just package changes on install media
[23:47] <cryptonector> oof, do I have to redo my zfs install?  (I didn't do it from install media but from the OEM ubuntu install)
[23:47] <guiverc> you can change post-install easily as per docs (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack etc) & even have multiple stacks installed (though some closed-source blogs; nvidia etc) can prevent that
[23:48] <cryptonector> ty!@
[23:48] <guiverc> s/blogs/blobs ^
[23:49] <guiverc> (in docs it'll tell you to install other stack & test it out before removing... if you don't do the remove step you'll naturually have multiple stacks installed; both will upgrade etc meaning slighly more bandwidth on updates, disk where you select at boot which you'll use)
[23:55] <cryptonector> that's out of date (xserver-xorg-hwe-22.04 doesn't exist) but let's see if I can get any of it to go
