soloslingerHas anyone tried to move the /var/log/journal directory to a different volume?  Is the only option to stop systemd-journal, mv the dir, symlink, and light things up?  I was kinda hoping there'd be a config option instead of the symlink move.01:16
rboxlooks like it MIGHT respect a LOGS_DIRECTORY environment variable on journald01:19
rfmsoloslinger, if you're just running low on space an alternative might be to adjust the size limits in journald.conf down.01:38
soloslingerrfm: Eh.  My devs have very verbose logs and my usage on the / volume is taking it to the face.  Hoping to move logs off to it's own volume to free up some of that.01:39

kotgcHello02:37
kotgcCurious about installing VMM. livbirtd is running, however error on first VMM launch: Unable to connect to libvirt qemu:///system. Verify that the β€˜libvirtd’ daemon is running.02:38
kotgcI find a reboot of the machine removes the error, however for a smooth install and start, there must be some command or step missing?02:38
bray90820So when run mount -a I get an error "mount: /etc/fstab: parse error at line 14 -- ignored"02:42

bray90820So I'm having an issue with samba on ubuntu  any time I try to conenct to my 22.04 samba server it says "faield to retreve share llist from server Invalid argument"04:05
rfmbray90820, no real idea, but in the past I've found it helpful to run up the log level on the server and check the logs after running the failed command. https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Setting_the_Samba_Log_Level05:59
bray90820rfm: The issue has been resolved I was wentering the wrong server name in smb.conf06:01
rfmbray90820, I was just about to say a stab would be to check the server entries in smb.conf.  Glad you got it fixed.06:02

Bashing-omHello Peppi - your support question ?06:06
PeppiI'm looking to do some development and thinking of creating an Ubuntu VM machine and using that to develop on. How bad of an idea is it and how much space should the VM be?06:06
PeppiHello Bashing-om06:06
Bashing-omPeppi: Can not address you specifically, but a determinaing factor is the amount on ram on the host system.06:09
Peppi64gigs06:09
Bashing-omPeppi: 64 gigs - one can go hog wild :P06:10
PeppiI'm more concerned about disk size to be honest06:11
Peppieverything I'm reading is tellimg me the size needs to be 25gb but looking here: https://www.osboxes.org/ubuntu/#ubuntu-23-10-vmware I see a 2gb vm machine06:13
PeppiWell I guess I better just try it06:15

vuipuhGood morning!07:01
lotuspsychjewelcome vuipuh07:02
vuipuhWe cannot get DNS to work on xunbutu-22.04 with PXE boot+nfs07:02
vuipuhsystem works fine, but to enable resolving we have to use network manager change "manual" to dhcp, every time we boot. Or call sudo dhclient, IIRC07:03
vuipuhit did not even work to use dhclient instead of internal via the dedicated config switch. I am sorry to not be able to provide any configs, since I don't have that system now at hand, and our firewall at work blocks IRC :-( . Does anybody have any howto to follow installing (x)ubuntu + PXE which addresses why DNS does not work?07:05
vuipuhDoes nobody have any experience with ubuntu + network boot?07:18
rfmvuipuh, not for a long time (and was Solaris not ubuntu). But it sure sounds like the image is configured wrong.  What I'd try is logging into the server that has the image, chroot'ing into it, and using nmcli to set the connection to dhcp..07:22
vuipuhimage is just a plain new installation + make bootable via nfs. So we need overlayroot of cause. nothing else done afaik, we restared from scratch, to be sure07:23
vuipuhnmcli on server, ok, we will try, thank you!07:24
rfmvuipuh, since dhcp is default for a new install, I don't know how it could have gotten reset... but good luck07:25
rfmvuipuh, ah, overlayroot (something I've never dealt with) but that explains why changing the config in the client isn't persistent...07:27
vuipuh18.04 worked great, no need to handle network configuration besides telling the nfsroot ip. overlayroot must be concerned, but is not the problem, since we can always put new files to the server as soon as we realize they are needed. We watched /etc/NetworkManager and /var/lib/NetworkManager without success07:30

TomyWorkI don't see this snap on ubuntu 18.04, even though I see most other snaps12:10
TomyWorkhttps://snapcraft.io/install/prismlauncher/ubuntu12:10
TomyWorksnap info/search prismlauncher yields no results, snap search prism yields two unrelated results12:11
Mandem0110TomyWork: pretty sure 18.04 is EOL...12:14
zniavrehello i can't find an offical way to uninstall snap package on my ubuntu12:16
TomyWorksnap remove doesnt work?12:16
Mandem0110sudo snap remove *package*12:16
zniavreyes but there is no documentation on ubuntu.org website12:16
TomyWorkhave you tried "man snap"?12:17
Mandem0110^12:17
Mandem0110!eol | TomyWork12:17
ubottuTomyWork: End-Of-Life is when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop. Make sure to update Ubuntu before it goes EOL so you get updates promptly for newly-discovered security vulnerabilities. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOL and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more info. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades12:17
zniavrethere is onmy a canonical webpage with how to installa and use snapd but no comment about how to unistall it12:18
zniavreis it intentional ?12:18
zniavreonly*12:18
TomyWorkMandem0110, so that's the reason why some snaps dont show up?12:20
ograzniavre, what exactly do you want ? do you want to remove a single snap package or do you want to remove snap support altogether ?12:20
ogra(this isnt clear from your questions above)12:20
ograTomyWork, unlikely ...12:21
ograTomyWork, snap packages have the ability to exclude their snaps from searches (the feature in the store for them is called "unlisting") ... this is often done for snaps that are not ready for user consumption yet ... snap find will not find it ... but since the snap actually exists, snap info will still give you the metadata12:23
ogra(and you will find its page on snapcraft.io ... which is essentially equivalent to "snap info" )12:23
zniavrewnat to understand why there is not a word on official documentation about how to uninstall snapd12:24
ograzniavre, you uninstall snapd like any other package: sudo apt purge snapd12:24
zniavrenot snap application but snapd12:24
ograthat commend should uninstall snapd and all snap packages ... (but note that snapd on ubuntu is a dependency of various metapackages, so it might come back since it is considered a part of the default OS)12:25
ogra*command12:25
ice9I purged "wine" and "wine64" packages but doing a filesystem search, still shows theses dirs https://pastebin.mozilla.org/ypVQSKC2  so why they were not removed by apt purge?12:25
zniavreok ( not satisfied but ok)12:26
ograice9, some come from libwine, some from other packages ... you can install the apt-file command to do a reverse search for these paths and it will give you the package names12:27
ograpurge only purges the package, but not necessarily the dependencies it pulled in at install time (they might be used by other packages, so apt is careful about this)12:28
ice9ogra, thanks, also in snap, uninstalling programs doesn't remove some filesystem dirs, how to clean that?12:33
ograice9, which ones ? (also see "snap help remove" ... there is a --purge option to it)12:34
ogratypically all non-clssic snaps remove all their dirs at uninstall ... (classic snaps are different though, since they run unconfined and could create files and dirs on the OS) ...12:35
ograif you dont use --purge they will take a snapshot of the user data though ... so in case you re-install it will simply pick up where you left it before12:36
ogra(but that snapshot is stored in a different place and there should definitely not be any dirs left behind)12:37
ice9thanks a lot ogra12:39
BluesKajHi all13:01

* Mandem0110 will be quiet 🀫13:09
ograwell, i'm actually adjusting my clock after BluesKaj's hi ... since about a decade πŸ˜‰13:16
BluesKajhey ogra13:19
mirtec001HI ogra13:29
TomyWork<ogra> TomyWork, […] snap info will still give you the metadata14:07
TomyWorkbut it doesn't :/14:07
TomyWorklemme find a 22.04 box and check if it's available there14:08
ograit does for me here ... "snap info prismlauncher" clearly gets me info14:08
ogra(note that this snap also only had a release to the edge channel yet)14:09
TomyWork"snap info prismlaucher" doesn't14:09
TomyWork-_-14:09
TomyWorkok so the fact that it didnt show up in a search for "prism", compounded with that typo, led me to believe it couldnt be found14:10
ograthat is expected14:10
TomyWorkI didnt know they could exclude themselves from search14:10
ograbut info (without typo) shoudl work14:10
TomyWorkand i didnt notice the typo earlier :D14:10
ograπŸ˜„14:10
ograinstall should also work if info works ... but the point is the devs dont want it widely available yet (so they could give you the name and tell you to snap install it to help them testing etc)14:11
TomyWorkyeah i need --edge14:11
ograyup14:11
TomyWorkit told me that. all is well :)14:12
ograπŸ™‚14:12
TomyWorkjust one thing. i wanna isolate the crummy minecraft mods from the rest of the machine a bit. jailmode should do that, but I also want to prevent certain connections. what do I do? can I firewall the snap and only let specific network connections out?14:15
ograte snap is already strict so you dont need any extra jailmode ...14:17
ograregarding networking, there is sadly no fine grained network mgmt for snaps yet, it is either on or off (you can make sure to disconnect "network-bind" that will prevent it from opening any sockets though14:18
ograbeyond this you can surely firewall somthing on a host level somehow ..14:18
ograbut there is no snap feature that would help here14:18
ravageogra: do you know anyone who could help with an electron snap? i tried to help the guys of deltachat with their desktop client. but electron really does not like me at all :D14:19
ograravage, heh, i'm probably one of the most experience guys for electron snaps ... point them at my GH pages, there are a lot example packages14:19
ogra(GH name is ogra1)14:19
ravagei can point myself there :P14:19
ravageit works in general. it just does not quit properly and the tray icon does not work. probably because of missing dbus permissions14:20
ravageit works find in unrestricted mode14:21
ravage*fine14:21
ravagei just dont know what permissions i could give it really14:21
ogradbus stuff for tray icons is in the unity7 plug IIRC (not very intuitive πŸ˜›)14:21
ravagei think i even saw that but let me check if that would solve it14:22
ravageim almost sure that was attempt 124 of 250 or so.14:22
ograhttps://github.com/ogra1/mattermost-client is using the tray icon (but i think i just used the gnome extension fo that one that brings along all the fonts/plugs/themes etc)14:23
ravageunity7 as plug should be all i have to do right?14:23
ograyeah14:23
ravagei will check that example. maybe i find something useful14:23
ograin general using the gnome extension is the easiest for any desktop snaps ... so you dont get issues with fonts, mounse pointers, themes etc14:24
ravageyep i did some in the past14:26
ravageall working great14:26
ravagejust this one really gives me headaches :)14:26
ravagenot sure what fixed it. maybe the extra environment stuff i added from your example14:54
ravagebut the tray icon works now :)14:54
loswedsededare packages deliberately kept back due to phased upgrading?15:08
ravagephased updates is the most common cause for kept back pakages15:10
ravage*packages15:11
ravagecan also be cause by third party repos15:11
