sarnoldlets goooo01:47
necrobotNice!01:47
semsarnold, i had to clear 271 MB to have enough space for the upgrade XD01:48
semdo you remember that time we removed all of snapd and a bunch of other stuff because my partition at the time was only 10 GB01:48
sarnoldsem: oh nooooo that's cutting it way too close, my guess is something's going to bust..01:48
sarnoldoh yeah that does sound vaguely familiar01:48
semThis time I have more space: there were some large .isos I could remove01:49
semit is already 96% progress!01:54
semlibc-bin must have a lot of triggers to process01:54
semit keeps telling me to close xscreensaver before updating... i hope part of the updater will close it01:58
sarnoldI think you have to do that yourself01:58
semok done01:59

ashafqFirefox snap on Ubuntu 22.04 does not open Downloads folder when I click "show-all-downloads"14:42
ashafqIs this a known issue? Am I missing any packages?14:43
Your_Dogashafq: lemme try on a fresh ubuntu install, but iirc before i move back to non-snap (keepassxc reasons) i was able to open the download folder15:03
=== mario_ is now known as mik77
Your_Dogashafq: is yours a fresh install? because I just tested mine, it works15:12
chico_ashafq: Show all downloads opens the firefox download library not the downloads folder. click the folder icon to the right of the download and should open downloads folder.15:20
ChristopheMHi, where can I find more chat rooms or Lubuntu related forums ?15:22
Matthias1I was asking about this in #linux but wondered if someone here would know. I'm trying to install `libffi-dev`, but getting "no installation candidate"15:22
chico_lubuntu channel15:23
Matthias1I've tried apt update and apt upgrade, so it seems like there's something wrong with my package cache?15:23
Matthias1On focal LTS15:23
chico_Matthias1: I'm assuming that it's no longer available15:24
ravageit is still available in noble. also in focal15:25
ravagehttps://packages.ubuntu.com/focal/libffi-dev15:25
leftyfbMatthias1: please copy and paste this into your terminal:   ( uname -a  ; cat /etc/os-release ; apt-cache policy libffi-dev ; cat /etc/apt/sources.list ) | nc termbin.com 999915:25
Matthias1https://termbin.com/ph2g15:27
leftyfbyou don't have a single non-security repo enabled15:27
leftyfbwhy did you disable all of your repositories?15:27
leftyfboh wait, you have universe15:28
Matthias1deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal universe ?15:28
ravagethe package is in main15:28
Matthias1And I don't have main. That's great15:29
ravagebackup that file and try https://gist.githubusercontent.com/ishad0w/788555191c7037e249a439542c53e170/raw/3822ba49241e6fd851ca1c1cbcc4d7e87382f484/sources.list15:29
ravageyou can remove the last 2 lines15:29
leftyfbooo, faster than me15:29
leftyfbhttps://paste.ubuntu.com/p/6sNFzHVFW9/15:30
leftyfbI usuall suggest that15:30
leftyfbusually*15:30
ravageit was just a quick google search 🙂15:30
Matthias1What if I comment out my current sources and just keep adding to the bottom lol15:30
ravageyou already have old stuff in there that is commented15:31
leftyfbMatthias1: how about just doing away with your complete mess and just run from a working sources.list?15:31
ravageand it looks like you already lost control over ut15:31
ravagemaybe use a fresh one15:31
Matthias1Yeah15:31
Your_DogI agree, just start with a fresh one first and if you feel like it, start tweaking again from there15:32
Matthias1Apparently I botched it when upgrading from bionic15:32
leftyfbMatthias1: curl -s https://gist.githubusercontent.com/ishad0w/788555191c7037e249a439542c53e170/raw/3822ba49241e6fd851ca1c1cbcc4d7e87382f484/sources.list | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list && sudo apt update ; sudo apt full-upgrade15:32
leftyfbmaybe replace that last ; with a &&15:33
Matthias1Got it working without any more issues. Thank you all15:45
MenzadorYou're welcome, but in all reality you shouldn't yeet an arbitrary GitHub link into your sources list15:54
ravageit is not arbitrary15:56
MenzadorI mean, *I* know where the content is coming from, but something that important should always come from the Ubuntu Web site. ESPECIALLY since Focal (20.04 LTS) is still a supported release for the main flavor16:00
ravagethe url was sent to him before to check. the content is not that complex. it clearly shows only official servers16:01
MenzadorYou can also find a copy in /usr/share/doc/apt/examples/sources.list16:03
MenzadorEven on a Live image16:03
ravageno idea when that gets updated16:03
MenzadorYou copy it to /etc/apt/sources.list and then change the distribution whichever is correct16:03
ravageon my noble device it still shows lunar16:03
Menzador*to whichever is correct16:03
ravageand changing sources the right way was exactly why he was here16:04
ravageand struggled with it16:04
MenzadorBut you DON'T have to find that from an unofficial source. It's best practice to use the official source to begin with.16:05
ravagegiving support here without code to paste from a paste bin is almost impossible16:05
ravagebut please try it16:05
ravagealso in this case any packages not signed correctly would be denied by ap16:07
ravageapt. so i dont see the big security risk16:07
MenzadorWould they? What if a GPG key outside the official repos was trusted and signed by the user without examination16:08
ravageit was not16:08
MenzadorAnd that was lucky16:09
ravagenot by any of the volonteers16:09
MenzadorI am done discussing this issue. My point is, if something that can be found within your installation (I do this all the time with, e.g., /etc/skel/.bashrc for resetting my .bashrc file) it's ALWAYS preferable over some arbitrary text file. Good day to you.16:13
chico_Updating to 23.10, On boot blue screen ERROR Verification failed: (0x1A) Security violation16:53
chico_Continue Boot has lock on screen Security Boot Fail16:54
chico_which to allow as trusted? bootx64.efi, mmx64.efi or grubx64.efi to reinstall from usb16:56
jeremy31chico_: Disable Secure Boot in BIOS16:58
jeremy31Then install all updates and see if it will boot with Secure Boot then16:59
chico_jeremy31: UEFI Firmware Settings says Secure Boot Mode: Custom.....Erase Secure Boot Setting:....Select an UEFI file as trusted for executing:.....Restore Secure Boot:...Factory Default17:02
chico_also grub commandline says need to load kernel first17:03
jeremy31For Secure Boot I thought there was a shimx64.efi17:05
chico_jeremy31: Under Ubuntu option ther is (grubx64.efi, shimx64.efi and mmx64.efi) under boot there is ()Bootx64.efi, fbx64.efi and mmx64.efi). Choosing shimx64.efi under ubuntu it says The boot description exists17:09
jeremy31under boot would be for the USB I think, try mmx64.efi17:10
chico_It still does the same. Takes me to MOK Management17:12
chico_Then pops up the security boot fail screen17:14
chico_When choosing memory test it says error: file '/BOOT/ubuntu_mcptlo@/memtest86+x64.efi' not found.17:16
jeremy31chico_: Does this have Windows installed?17:16
jeremy31The memtest only works on Legacy/BIOS boot17:17
chico_No. was Ubuntu 22.04 upgrading to Ubuntu 23.1017:17
chico_when choosing to boot Ubuntu 23.10 it says /BOOT/vmlinuz-6.5.0-21-generic not found17:18
chico_you need to load the kernel first17:19
jeremy31Any other kernel installed?17:21
jeremy31Try using Grub Menu advanced options for ubuntu17:22
chico_jeremy31: Many thanks!! Was able to get secure boot disabled and now reinstalling ubuntu 21.10 from usb.17:24
jeremy31chico_: can you boot the install and update it?17:24
jeremy31Or just use the ISO on USB, chroot into the install and install updates17:25
geirhahopefully you mean 23.10 and not 21.1017:25
chico_21.10 was the original, I upgraded to 22.04 fine. When attempting to upgrade to 23.10 had issue with secure boot17:26
chico_Uefi dbx firmware update issue?17:28
jeremy31chico_: That is my bet17:29
chico_jeremy31: going to do a quick reinstall...updates and not update the uefi dbx and verify17:31
jeremy31chico_: The UEFI update must already be in the computer or there wouldn't have been a boot issue with the ISO17:35
chico_yes, I updated the vs 83 to 37117:36

WeeBeyHi frens. I have 23.10 with 6.5.0-21-generic. I'm noticing that shortly after a kernel upgrade, I get a couple of hard crashes-totally unresponsive requiring hard reboot. I haven't noticed a pattern yet except It just happened while I was running VirtualBox. Keyboard stopped working and two apps stopped responding. Then everything stopped.22:09
WeeBeyI'm wondering if anyone has heard of anything 23.10 crashing issues. I know it's vague right now. Any tips on finding info about the last crash would be helpful.22:10
Guest46what am i doing wrong here `mlevental    ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/modprobe, /usr/bin/rmmod, /usr/sbin/insmod` ? i've tried a bunch of different forms of this and no matter what i still cannot get user `mlevental` to be able to run `modprobe -r` without sudo?23:20
Guest46sorry should've been more clear - i put that line in `etc/sudoers`, logged out, logged in, etc23:20
Guest46is it because modprobe is a symlink...23:22
rboxwhat do you mean without sudo23:25
Guest13User mlevental may run the following commands on mlevental-F7BSC:23:25
Guest13    (ALL : ALL) ALL23:25
Guest13    (root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/modprobe, /usr/bin/rmmod, /usr/sbin/insmod23:25
Guest13    (ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/modprobe, /usr/sbin/rmmod, /usr/sbin/insmod, /bin/kmod23:25
rboxthe sudoers controls what users can do with sudo23:25
rboxit doesnt magically let you do thing as root23:25
Guest13err23:25
Guest13i'm le dumb23:25
Guest13ok23:25
Guest13i misread the docs/man23:25
Guest13sorry - what is the point of NOPASSWD then?23:26
rboxto allow you to use sudo without typing in a password23:26
Guest13OMG23:28
Guest13bro23:28
Guest13thank you23:28
oerheksthe point of (ALL) NOPASSWD ???23:28
oerheksi do not give support for such nonsense23:29
Guest13is this correct or am i opening myself up to l33t hackers somehow: `mlevental    ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/modprobe, /usr/sbin/rmmod, /usr/sbin/insmod, /bin/kmod`23:29
=== guiverc2 is now known as guiverc
Guest13(let's ignore whether l33t hackers can pwn me as me through kmod) - i'm just asking if `ALL=(ALL) is somehow more permissive than i want it to be?23:29
rboxGuest13: try to run modprobe, does it work? try to run soemthgin else, does it not work?23:30
oerheksthis is ubuntu support, not pentesting or hackers support.23:30
Guest13i'm asking about sudoers23:30
Guest13syntax23:30
rboxwhat do you mean "more permissive"23:30
Guest13that i'm unfamiliar with23:30
Guest13nm23:30
Guest13thanks rbox23:30
