gaelheartcan i remove those ubuntu pro repos after upgrading?04:16
lotuspsychjemgedmin: i requested apport-collect on bug #2081384 maybe we can find similar errors with yours after07:34
-ubottu:#ubuntu- Bug 2081384 in linux (Ubuntu Oracular) "bluetooth headphones need reconnect after every reboot" [Undecided, Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/208138407:34
mgedminI played with btmon a bit yesterday, captured a log of a successful connection and a log of a failing one after suspend+resume07:35
mgedminI wish I knew how to interpret btmon's output07:35
lotuspsychjeyeah i saw on your bug07:35
lotuspsychjei still assume its the kernel fault07:36
LokinsHello, I have a question. I have over 1 TB hard drive. Why is my hard drive full after 9GB of data? https://bpa.st/V44Q09:06
mgedminLokins: the output of lsblk might be useful09:08
mybalzitchLokins: because you only partitioned the drive to be 32g of data09:08
mybalzitch*in size09:08
mgedminbut also the output looks like something you'd see in a container?  why is the / filesystem type 'overlay'?  is this ubuntu core by any chance?09:09
Lokinsmgedmin https://bpa.st/3FKQ09:09
mgedminyeah, that's a weird set of partitions, leaving most of the 1 TB space unallocated09:09
mgedminhow did you install ubuntu on this thing?09:09
mgedminyou should be able to grow the partition and then the filesystem inside it, without rebooting even (assuming ext4 or other fs type that supports online resize)09:10
Lokinsmgedmin Okay thanks I'll try it it's a server09:11
mgedminI was under the (probably mistaken) impression that server installs would use LVM?  or, rather, that server installs that use LVM get a small logical volume for / by default, with the rest of the space unallocated in the volume group09:12
Lokinsmgedmin Okay, can I change this via terminal?09:13
Lokinsallocate more storage space for the 32 GB09:14
mgedminyes09:14
mgedminiirc you use parted to resize the partition (and it can also grow the filesystem if you tell it to?)09:14
mgedminit's been a while since I last did this, so I'm afraid to tell you the exact commands and get them wrong09:15
Lokinshm :(09:15
mgedminman parted tells me the 'resizepart' command is for resizing partitions, but doesn't change the filesystem inside it09:15
mgedminresize2fs is the other tool that will complete the operation09:16
LokinsIn short, I have to reinstall the server09:16
Lokinsresize2fs hm09:16
Lokinsnever done09:17
mgedminyou _can_ reinstall if you _want_ to09:18
mgedminok, I found this: https://serverfault.com/a/102119209:18
mgedminseems simpler to explain than parted09:18
mgedminso (1) make sure you have full backups in case things go wrong, (2) sudo growpart /dev/sda 4 (3) sudo resize2fs /dev/sda4 (5) done09:19
Lokinsmgedmin ok i test but I don't have a backup09:21
tomreynthen apparently your data is not relevant09:22
tomreynyou don't do such operations against data you still need. and you do have backups of data that you still need. anything else is irresponsible.09:23
Lokinsmgedmin -bash: growpart: command not found09:24
Lokinstomreyn ok thx09:24
mgedminsudo apt install cloud-guest-utils to get growpart09:26
mgedminsudo apt install command-not-found to have bash tell you which package contains a command if you try to run something that's not installed09:28
Lokinsmgedmin growpart /dev/sda 4 = FAILED: /dev/sda: does not exist09:32
mgedminno but seriously, are you in a container or something?09:33
mgedminyour lsblk showed /dev/sda with four partitions, including sda409:33
mgedminwhat does /etc/os-release look like?09:34
Lokinsmgedmin yes I in a container09:35
mgedmindon't be09:37
Lokinsmgedmin okay it worked thank you very much09:40
tomreynLokins: the way how you evade many of the questions asked doesn't make it look like you're actually running ubuntu, or have some other situation where you'Re intentionally not disclosing relevant information?09:43
Lokinstomreyn Description: Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS09:46
tomreynLokins: see, you can answer questions! do you still need any support with this system now?09:47
Lokinstomreyn I already said above it worked09:47
tomreyni'm glad you worked it out. have a nice day.09:48

gordonjcpmorpheuz: system volume as in the total speaker output volume?12:17
gordonjcpmorpheuz: no, but it might be possible with a bit of thought12:17
morpheuzgordonjcp: yes total speaker volume :) i just cant think about a GUI tool that would achieve this in Linux. I have this working on Windows12:18

ColorsThe OS is Ubuntu 24.1012:37

ColorsAlso "libfreetype6-dev"12:37
ColorsOf course, "apt-get update" was executed prior.12:38
morpheuzGuest38 im not sure, but you could install a current ubuntu on a usb stick or an external disk and try it out ;)12:39

tomreyn*reddit12:40
tomreynoh, Guest38 is gone already12:41
morpheuztomreyn: i love those. asking a question leaving 1 minute later. Its the equivalent of someone calling you, you instantly call them backa nd they dont answer for hours xD12:43
tomreynwell, there can be good reasons to leave, like when you need to reboot, or when mom's calling you to the dinner table.12:47
ColorsThank you tomreyn, I have no idea why, but when I split packages in the script normally instead of from a non-quote variable provided in some Git repo script, it worked.13:00
ColorsI guess the variable included some odd space or char that was invisible or caused the environment in a Dockerfile to be reset with no package repositories being up-to-date.13:01
morpheuztomreyn: food is reserved for those who have finished working installations :P13:01
ColorsWait wait wait...13:01
tomreynColors: i don't think you previously mentioned a script. sure, when something doesn't work in your script, try debuggnig the script first of all.13:05
ioriaand libfreetype6-dev it's not available on 24.10; but libfreetype-dev is13:06
tomreynin shell scripts, "set -x" helps understand which commands were actually executed.13:06
webchat13hi everyone, does anyone know how daily ubuntu-base image is built.. I checked the logs here https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-cdimage/+livefs/ubuntu/focal/ubuntu-base . in the very beginning it shows in-target tool of launchpad-buildd is invoked to extract a cached file which appears to be a prebuilt base image.. SO I was wondering which tools13:07
webchat13actually builts base-image from scratch13:07
Colorstomreyn, I'll try though executing the commands you shared.13:12
Colorstomreyn, the output is: https://termbin.com/wa7113:13
ColorsThe current error (returned): E: Package 'ttf-dejavu-core' has no installation candidate13:15
ColorsAm possibly found the reason of the package not found: https://redd.it/kjyjov13:16
ColorsHurray! It worked. Replaced the above with "fonts-dejavu" and it passed.13:16
tomreynColors: you can use "apt-cache search <searchterm>" to search for packages which don'tt seem to exist. there is also https://packages.ubuntu.com (may need an occasional shift-reload and some patience), apt-file search <searchterm>   and rmadison.13:18
ColorsThank you very much, tomreyn. I am still learning (for more than a decade now how to use those...). Today I used PKGS in a hurry and found the following which seems like is for Debian only: https://debian.pkgs.org/10/debian-main-amd64/ttf-dejavu-core_2.37-1_all.deb.html . I tried to install it manually prior another try to install via automated solutions.13:22
tomreynmixing packages built for different releases and distributions is a recipe for disaster. pkgs.org is a site listing (and providing access to) packages built for many diffierent linux distros and versions thereof. generally, when you are downloading and installing .deb's from some place on the internet, there is a very good chance that you're making a mistake. and (hopefully) a smaller but very relevant chance that you're handing over root access13:26
tomreynto your system to someone else.13:26
tomreynuse the apt repositories provided for your distribution and release / version. most of the time you'll find either the software you're looking for or an equally good or better alternative in there.13:28
ColorsYou are right indeed...13:28
ColorsDo you use any TUI for Apt? Would you recommend any?13:29
tomreynapt just works fine for me (apt-get is less relevant now unless you're meannig to script things, aptitude used to be great when it was well maintained in the past, when apt-get wasn't as featureful, and when apt did not exist as a command)13:31
tomreyni wouldn't recommend aptitude nowadays, though, better just use "apt" (and "apt-get")13:32
ColorsThank you tomreyn.13:44
ColorsGot disconnected, but I saw the message.13:44
ColorsPlease stay safe, dear everyone!13:44
ColorsIt's worth to mention that Aptitude saved me a few times back then when dependencies got malformed.13:44
Colors(when `apt install -f did` not)13:44

lotuspsychjemarcos-1305: every ubuntu release will have differences, so yes its normal16:58
hans_henrik_salty-horse go to /etc/default/grub and remove "quiet" from GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT  then run `update-grub`17:08
lotuspsychjehans_henrik_: can you apport-collect 2084391 on your new bug you filed please, in order to drag in relevant system info and specs?17:10
lotuspsychjerbox: before forwarding users to file bugs, you can let them ask here first on irc, also forwarding them to google is not really the prefered way, ubuntu-bug package would be better17:12

ldiamondmy Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS is having some issues where when I take my laptop away (xrandr --off my 2nd monitor, systemctl suspend, resume, work, suspend, plug it back, resume, xrandr --auto my 2nd monitor) it gets into a state where the CTRL key gets stuck (not the physical key). Killing x11 and running startx again fixes it but I'm wondering if there's a known issue or a way to diagnose what's causing17:19

ldiamondIt looks like I found a way around it. I was trying to press L_CTRL to "unstuck" it or make a keydown count as a key up if it's already marked as pressed. Turns out R_CTRL was the culprit and a press to that key seems to fix it for now. Still not sure how that happens.17:33

Numline1Hey guys, just wondering - is bridging over USB WiFi adapters a thing or is that just not possible without promiscuous mode? Thank you21:44
Numline1(I have some VMs to run and I had to switch to wifi for now, I used to have a bridged ethernet passed to the libvirt VMs and they were just doing their own networking with DHCP and all that good stuff)21:45
rboxmost wifi devices cant' bridge21:49
Numline1rbox thanks :/ can you think of any way I could use multiple IPs and/or have the VM guests have different IPs?22:03
rboxyou can add as many ips you want to an interface22:03
Numline1rbox so if I have a USB wifi card, I can just assign multiple IPs? How would I delegate them to the VMs?22:19
Numline1I might be overcomplicating this, sorry, I'm just not sure how this works, I've been so used to bridging it almost hurts lol22:20
rboxyou dont delegate ips to vms22:23
Numline1rbox I mean, how would I define such VM in the XML config22:24
rbox"such vm"?22:24
Numline1rbox to keep it simple, I just need internet and LAN access on the VM. The VM has its definition (XML) and it's config (netplan, most likely). What kind of tech would I use here?22:24
Numline1it should have a different IP than the host as well (ideally static)22:25
Numline1I had all that stuff with eth bridging, but I'm not sure how I'd go about this situation22:25
rboxjust do nat22:25
WaVVirtualBox does the bridging for you. Not sure what virtualization software you're using.22:27
Numline1alright, I'll rtfm on that, should be a default in libvirt22:28
Numline1WaV oh just libvirt and virsh, nothing extra22:28
Numline1it's a NAS/home server, so VirtualBox wouldn't do, there's no video output :)22:28
