slimackshello00:42
justme_Hi just wanna update on my kernel issue. Thankfully got a friend around the server today and we got it booted on a earlier kernel version and now the virtualbox is able to start the vm's works again. I do have also found out that thankfully I werent the only one facing the issue00:57
justme_https://www.reddit.com/r/virtualbox/comments/1e5bmj0/heads_up_latest_kernel_update_on_some_ubuntumint/00:57
justme_So now the server is set to always boot on the earlier kernel at least for now. and thank you all for the help with the guide links00:59
tomreynjustme_: i haven't followed or don't remember the earlier conversation. virtualbox is a desktop virtualization software - if you want something to run on servers, you should consider qemu instead.01:23
tomreyn(this said, it's nice that you found a temporary workaround to the issue you ran into. if those are ubuntu virtualbox packages, you might want to file a bug against those.)01:25
leftyfbor lxd, especially if you only need server "vm's01:25
justme_tomreyn well the reason that it's virtualbox headless on that ubuntu server is because its just a few smaller vm's ( and have planned because of this situation to move three of them to docker ).01:29
justme_and since the server there is the host also is used to alot other things on the bare metal. And about Qemu tbh I have never been able to figure it out so that was why it olways just stayed on the virtualbox headless ( also since its not public accessable )01:29
justme_tomreyn I feel it would be wrong of me to file a bug on it since that branch of virtualbox reached EoL january this year and the only reason I'm staying on it for now is that there arent prober remote management tools for the headless in the newer version01:36
justme_but yeah I'm also looking into both moving the two windows vm's and one linux desktop vm to another virtulisation platform like possible learning qemu01:36

tomreynjustme_: if you can be bothered to configure your guest systems (containers and VMs) using a CLI, incus is probably a good choice, since it can manage either: https://linuxcontainers.org/incus/01:43
tomreynlibvirt also can do so to some degree, though, IIRC, and it's the usual companion to quemu, plus it also offers a GUI you can use remotely from your desktop via SSH.01:44
tomreyn*qemu01:44
leftyfbtomreyn: I would recommend LXD over incus. Incus is only available in the noble repos01:45
leftyfblxd added back in other OS's as part of it's images which was the only advantage incus had over LXD for a bit. The only reason for incus at this point is for childish politics01:46
justme_tomreyn thank you very much I will defiantely take a look. And I have no problem at all to configure over ssh the only issue I just had with virtualbox were purely I were used to their gui though when I create vm's that is done from the terminal.01:50
justme_leftyfb gotcha, thanks for that info. I'll defiantely take a look at both01:50
leftyfbjustme_: sudo snap install lxd ; lxd init ; lxc launch ubuntu:24.04 myfirstcontainer01:51
leftyfbjustme_: 3 commands and you're running a container01:51
justme_ohh a snap well then it's a no thanks unfortunately01:53
leftyfbjustme_: yeah, I also had when my packages work fine and are more secure01:53
leftyfbhad/hate01:54
justme_sure it's more secure but it gives also a extreme IO overrhead and slows the systems so no thanks its a thing I always uninstall01:55
leftyfbfalse01:55
justme_since it's so poorly optimized even when it arent used01:55
justme_actually it's true I literally feel the slow down and mesured with time commands the additianal disk IO overhead01:56
justme_like on my desktop jjust by installing 1 snap program and not even having it started there were a 5% slowdown from the aditional mounts etc that it uses all times01:57
justme_so snapd is always removed as the first and blocked in apt01:58
tomreynfwiw, incus is packaged via apt. but 24.04+ only, as lefty mentioned.02:00
justme_tomreyn actually found out that the main developer has released a repo for 22.04 so think I'm gonna try it on a spare server first just to learn it02:03

tuxickyou mean they occasionaly do allow https?13:08

tuxickbut why not?13:09
ioriaask them13:09
tuxickpicked a mirror that does do https13:11
geirhathe deb packages don't contain anything sensitive that requires encryption to hide, and the package lists are pgp signed, so you'll get an error message if a mitm tries to send you modified packages13:14

BertAnyone here using Ubuntu 24.04 and Totem? I've noticed that when I scroll inside a video file I constantly get "Internal data stream error" and I've noticed issues with other gstreamer players too. I'm trying to figure out if this is a universal issue in the 24.04 version of gstreamer or some kind of curse on specifically my install13:53
lotuspsychj3wich filetype are you trying to play Bert13:55
Bertlotuspsychj3: mkv Input #0, matroska,webm, from 'test_gstreamer.mkv':13:58
lotuspsychj3did you install any plugins for totem13:59

Bertlotuspsychj3: I did "sudo apt install totem" and used it as is13:59
BertI was using xplayer and clapper before, noticed a bug in there, and wanted to see if I could replicate it in totem, but totem seems worse off :P13:59
lotuspsychj3i cant even seem to play any movie (on 24.04 totem)14:00
Bertyeah it seems extremely broken14:00
BertI think there's something really not right with Ubuntu 24.04's gstreamer14:00
Bertbut no one seems to have noticed, which is very odd14:00
Bertlotuspsychj3: are you getting some kind of error or is it just frozen?14:01
aberrantmorning all. I installed clangd-15 but `clangd` is still showing not found - `clangd-15` works. What's the proper way to create the necessary aliases?14:01

lotuspsychj3lets see if your/my bug is in here14:01
Bertlotuspsychj3: there are no bugs filed against noble14:02
Bertthat's why I came to ask :P14:02
Bertwhat player does base Ubuntu ship with by default? Celluloid?14:03
lotuspsychj3mpv i think14:03
Bertyeah Celluloid is an mpv frontend14:03
lotuspsychj3file a new bug Bert14:05
lotuspsychj3and ill see if i can reproduce14:06
Bertyeah, I wanted to be sure it wasn't just me before filing a bug14:06
Bertdo I file bugs against all the players I have weird bugs in, then also file a gstreamer bug?14:06
lotuspsychj3it surely seems borked on my side14:06
BertI'm quite sure it's an underlying gstreamer issue14:06
lotuspsychj33 videos dont play here14:07
Bertthings play for me but once I scroll it just errors and stops14:07
lotuspsychj3maybe we need to install some codecs first14:08
Bertthose should be dependencies14:08

lotuspsychj3but not in totems window14:17
BertThis seems to be a specific file14:17
lotuspsychj3keep a journalctl -f open while messing with totem, see if you can catch something14:19
Bertcan you specifically try an mkv file, lotuspsychj3?14:19
lotuspsychj3Bert: if you share it and its legal sure14:20
Bertsadly these are movies14:21
BertI obtained them legally but I can't share them legally14:21
lotuspsychj3you cant share warez here indeed14:21
Bertit's against my principles too :P14:21
lotuspsychj3scrolling with mouse makes it lag a bit on some here Bert14:22
Bertlotuspsychj3: oh you should aggresively scroll back and forth with mouse and the arrow keys14:24
Bertit takes some effort but at some point things will freeze14:24
lotuspsychj3lets see14:24
Bertor video will but audio will continue to work14:24
Bertthat's the underlying bug I've been trying to catch14:24
Bertthe one I'm getting with mkv is seemingly unrelated14:24
Bertbut the scrolling one I get on every single gstreamer player14:25
BertI've been able to replicate it on clapper and xplayer too14:25
Bertnot on gtk4-demo but that might be because it's implemented very differently14:25
lotuspsychj3totem[1884229]: No installation candidate for missing plugins found.14:26
lotuspsychj3cant seem to invoke more errors14:26
BertI guess I'm gonna have to dig deeper14:27
lotuspsychj3start totem from terminal Bert14:28
rain?14:28
lotuspsychj3see if something spits out14:28
Bertlotuspsychj3: I always launch it from the terminal but it never says anything14:31
Bertso if I open https://download.blender.org/peach/bigbuckbunny_movies/big_buck_bunny_720p_h264.mov in the terminal and I scroll to the end and scroll back and forth, unpause then scroll a little more it freezes even though it thinks it's playing14:32
Bertthis is similar to the problems I see in xplayer and clapper, but is seemingly unrelated to the totem-specific issue I have with MKVs14:32
Bertlotuspsychj3: ah interesting, the Internal data stream error is a subtitle problem14:40
Bertit autoselects danish and gets confused by that, somehow14:40
Bertgotta go but I will get to the bottom of this lotuspsychj3!14:45
lotuspsychj3okay good luck!14:45
BertThanks, I'll try and remember to mention you here with the launchpad links :)14:47

AavarI dont like not being able to edit /etc/resolv.conf on my server and having a nameserver running on localhost. Is the right way to change this to stop and disable the service systemd-resolvd and replace /etc/resolv.conf?21:48
leftyfbAavar: edit your netplan config21:49
leftyfbthat's the proper way to configure your nameserver(s)21:50
Aavarleftyfb: I understand, but is that the right way if I don't want the localhost nameserver?21:50
Aavar(like the way it is in debian for example)21:51
leftyfbAavar: if you like the way Debian is, don't change anything as it's exactly the same setup21:53
leftyfbI just spun up this Debian 12 container https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/kYFcTMvjNk/21:54
leftyfbexcept they're not using netplan. But systemd-resolved is running the caching server21:55
Aavarleftyfb: it is not. I just ran a clean debian install and /etc/resolv.conf has my nameserver. Not localhost21:56
leftyfbAavar: the Debian 12 container I just installed 1 minute ago would disagree with you21:56
Aavarleftyfb: does it matter?21:56
leftyfbAavar: either way, when I type "ubuntu disable systemd-resolved" into google, one of the first links is https://gist.github.com/zoilomora/f7d264cefbb589f3f1b1fc2cea2c844c which should work for you21:57
