[00:19] chatgpt suggests to use gddrescue to create an image file. Is it different than just dding? [00:19] I'm not gonna trust chatgpt with this :) [00:19] but it doesn't sound bad? [00:26] Siamaster: Have you tried what the fsck advises ? : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2177756 how to. [00:28] No, but I'm thinking the disk is failing so it's best to back it up first thing first. I've bought an external disk today for this purpose [00:47] I keep disconnecting? [00:49] yes [00:49] 2024-11-22 00:35:27 -!- Siamaster [~Siamaster@h-98-128-180-21.NA.cust.bahnhof.se] has quit [Quit: Client closed] [00:49] 2024-11-22 00:44:07 -!- Siamaster [~Siamaster@h-98-128-180-21.NA.cust.bahnhof.se] has quit [Client Quit] [00:49] from here it looks like your program has chosen to quit [00:49] weird.. [00:50] what do you think about gddrescue, I think you suggested that earlier? [00:50] chatgpt is suggesting that too [00:51] I've still not dared to run any commands :P [00:53] gddrescue should be good, it won't give up ont he first error like dd will [00:55] should I create a new partition for this on my new hd or should I just dump the img file? [00:56] I'd create a new filesystem on the new drive and save it as a regular file, most tools ought to be able to handle that, and it'll be easier to work with [00:58] ok.. can you help me create a filesystem on it?  I've got: [00:58] [12:07:26 AM] sdc 8:32 0 4,5T 0 disk [00:58] [12:07:26 AM] ├─sdc1 8:33 0 200M 0 part [00:58] [12:07:26 AM] └─sdc2 8:34 0 4,5T 0 part /media/siamaster/Expansion [00:58] that's my new disk [00:58] or should I just dump it to sdc2? [01:02] what kind of filesystem do you want on it? ext4, zfs, something else? [01:03] I mean does it matter if it's just an img file? [01:03] but I usually go with ext4 and the failing partition is most probably ext4 [01:18] it doesn't *really* matter but if you want to rsync it to another machine or something, it's so much easier to work with a file than with a partition [01:23] I'm going to back it up to a new internal disk after that [01:23] and that new internal disk is going to be ext4 [01:23] so I should just go with a file right? just save it to sdc2 [01:24] so sudo ddrescue -f -n /dev/sdb /media/siamaster/Expansion/backup/disk-image.img /media/siamaster/Expansion/backup/logfile.log [01:24] do I dare? [01:25] chatgpt suggest to run this first and then another one with sudo ddrescue -d -r3  for retries.. but this sounds weird [01:28] it suggests to run first  'sudo ddrescue -f -n /dev/sdb /media/siamaster/Expansion/backup/disk-image.img /media/siamaster/Expansion/backup/logfile.log' then   'sudo ddrescue  -d -r3 /dev/sdb /media/siamaster/Expansion/backup/disk-image.img /media/siamaster/Expansion/backup/logfile.log' [01:28] so to the same destination twice [01:30] that seems reasonable enough, yeah [01:32] ok [01:32] I run it then [01:32] gogogo [01:33] Fresh Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS install. Looking to watch my DVD's but when i put them in nothing happens. I read somewhere online that VLC has DVD playback in it, but When i tried it with VLC it didn't play. I installed ubuntu-restricted-extras but it still won't play my DVD's. Is there an online resource somebody can point me too in order to get DVD playback on my Ubuntu PC. Thanks. [01:34] oh man I'm seeing lots of errors [01:34] sd 3:0:0:0: [sdb] tag#16 Add. Sense: Logical unit not ready, power cycle required [01:34] should I abort? [01:35] I aborted it [01:36] it was not able to read anything at all: [01:36] GNU ddrescue 1.23 [01:36] Press Ctrl-C to interrupt [01:36]      ipos: 283443 kB, non-trimmed: 290807 kB, current rate: 0 B/s [01:36]      opos: 283443 kB, non-scraped: 0 B, average rate: 0 B/s [01:36] aw, that's sounding bad. [01:37] what can be the cause? [01:37] and is there any solution? [01:38] do I dare mounting my other backup disk to this computer? [01:38] I have another backup disk which contains parts of my data [01:38] but I'm now even afraid to attach it to my computer, since I don't know why this one started failing like this all of the sudden [01:38] I'll see you all later. Have a great day! [01:41] could it be that my power supply is too weak? But I remember getting a strong one for my setup [01:51] Could it be a problem with my computer rather than the disk? [01:52] I've tried connecting to different satas tho === antonispgs7 is now known as antonispgs [02:12] I tried again switching my sata cables but still that disk is not read [02:12] I only get read errors from it [02:12] What's next? :/ === gnubio is now known as biodigital === biodigital is now known as gnubio [02:17] 6. Check Power Supply [02:17] If multiple disks are experiencing issues, your power supply might not be delivering enough power. Consider testing with a different PSU. [02:17] Say's chatgpt [02:19] I think it sounds reasonable, more reasonable than that the disk is now both unreadable and the partition corrupted.. [02:20] and it all started when I was shutting down windows, I heard that click that I always hear when I get issues with my hdds due to the PS. I heard it several times and then when I forced shut down my cocmputer and restarted to ubuntu I realized the disk is not readable anymore [02:21] I mean Windows hadn't even mounted it, probably it didn't corrupt the data [02:22] I change my hdds every 7-8 years or so, This one is probably 5-6 years old, not that it matters but I've never actually had a hardware failure in my life, it's always been due to the PS. Usually switching sata locations helps, but it's not doing it now [02:23] I think I will take it to a store see if he can test to see whether it works with another PS [02:24] and I'm def not going to plug my real "backup" disk to this system, when it just stopped reading the other one for no reason [02:24] I mean the log even said it.. "not enough power cycles" or something [02:25] has to do with PS [02:25] what do you think? [02:44] I'm going to buy a new hdd cabinet with it's own powersupply and test [04:27] with "apt upgrade" why do i get a list for "The following packages have been kept back:" without any explanations? [04:28] why is apt refusing to do what its told? [04:29] !phased-update [04:29] no [04:29] non phased refusal for apt [04:30] how can i ask apt what its problem is? [04:31] de-facto: ' a[t polocy ' to see the phasing. [04:31] apt* [04:31] apt policy ** [04:32] i dont think its any phasing [04:32] those are listed separately [04:32] apt is just refusing to do its work without providing any explanation [04:33] try to manually install what its compliaing about [04:37] how can i force apt to do an upgrade of all packages [04:38] sudo apt full-upgrade [04:39] de-facto, ^^ [04:39] show us the list what packages? [04:39] this is wild guessing [04:41] i just want apt to tell me the problem instead of it just refusing [04:43] de-facto, In that case, try "sudo aptitude why-not " [04:44] aptitude was great, with why + why-not [04:44] You might need to install aptitude for that. Ubuntu doesn't always ship with it installed. I use multiple package managers myself, because some of them have specialized tools for interacting with dpkg. [04:45] apt is better now, over apt-get and aptitude [04:45] oerheks, apt doesn't have why-not though. [04:45] indeed [04:46] wow apt is such a bad util i really hate it [04:46] maybe he just got a kernel update, and removal old kernel is waiting [04:46] who can tell? [04:46] rant away, good luck de-facto [04:47] de-facto, Can you take a screenshot of the Terminal output when you try upgrading so we can see a list of the packages it refuses to upgrade? [04:47] That might also give me an idea of a command to use. [04:48] in uninstalled all the problematic packages now and try to install then anew, now it says held back broken packages without any explanations [04:48] its just refusing to cooperate without providing the essential informations [04:48] de-facto, apt isn't bad, it's just not as complicated. I use apt for almost everything, but I always have aptitude and apt-get waiting in the wings for special needs circumstances. [04:49] de-facto, Well, you can fix broken packages with "apt-get install -f" [04:49] why is its design philosophy to refuse to comply with user requests without providing reasons for refusal? [04:50] why not provide info? [04:51] There are some settings you can use to make it more verbose... [04:51] apt update with new lists could solve such issues. [04:51] how can i ask apt which packages it considers "broken"? [04:52] why is this essential info hidden for the user? [04:53] de-facto, You might try to ask this way: "dpkg-query -l broken" [04:53] I think that's the way to ask... [04:54] apt "E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages." dpkg-query: no packages found matching broken [04:54] great so now they disagree? [04:55] de-facto, That "E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages." is a message I'm familiar with, and it's usually at that point that I run "apt-get install -f", but you might even be able to use "apt install -f" [04:55] And, no, they don't disagree. I must have written the command wrong. [04:56] already tried that, it does nothing [04:56] apt neither fixes it nor tells whats broken it just refuses to cooperate [04:58] hmm maybe i just do some wild guesses and keep uninstalling packages until it stops refusing [04:58] * de-facto really does hate apt [04:58] de-facto, Okay... IWOL (Incoming Wall of Text) [04:59] Run the following command to check for broken dependencies: sudo apt-get check [04:59] Use dpkg to find packages marked as not fully installed or broken: dpkg --audit [04:59] Alternatively, filter broken packages with: dpkg -l | grep ^..r [04:59] Look into the logs for detailed error messages: cat /var/log/dpkg.log | grep -i "error" [04:59] Or: cat /var/log/apt/term.log | grep -i "error" [05:00] Use the following command to attempt an automatic fix: sudo apt-get install -f [05:00] If the above doesn't work, manually remove and reinstall the broken package: sudo apt-get remove --purge [05:00] sudo apt-get install [05:00] Clear the cache in case it holds corrupted data: sudo apt-get clean [05:00] sudo apt-get autoclean [05:01] If issues persist: Run "apt-cache policy " to inspect the package's sources. [05:01] Check the PPA or repository configuration in /etc/apt/sources.list or /etc/apt/sources.list.d/. [05:01] LAST RESORT!! For stubborn broken packages, force removal: sudo dpkg --remove --force-remove-reinstreq [05:02] Check for general package system issues: sudo apt-get update [05:02] sudo apt-get upgrade [05:02] and reboot [05:03] 🤪 [05:03] That will get you somewhere de-facto... maybe more confused, maybe problem solved... but somewhere. [05:04] ok thank you for the commands i will try to somehow force that stupid apt to cooperate [05:04] May the odds be ever in your favor! [05:04] lol [05:04] thanks [05:13] finally i just uninstalled all packages that even could remotely be related and reinstalled them [05:14] that way apt did not stumble upon itself and actually did what it was asked [05:14] lol [05:14] Remember, the rule with Linux is: If you break it, you get to keep both pieces. [05:14] lol [05:15] * DarkLordofDebian has broken things on so many occasions... only a few of those were intentional... all of them were learning experiences [05:16] As long as you learn from it, it's never a bad thing. [05:16] * de-facto just wished apt would not hide the reasons for refusal, because it actually only can refuse if it knows those reasons [05:18] Well, good night everyone. I'll be back tomorrow at some point. [05:18] thanks for your help [05:18] gn8 [05:18] de-facto, You're welcome!

Is that a unique "feature" for all PPAs or specific to certain ones (ppa:ondrej/php) [08:58] apt doesn't support downgrades [08:58] (that is, they might work, if the older version is available in some archive, but you're on your own if things break) [08:58] afaiu the PPA publisher only ever publishes the latest version of a package [08:59] so you'd have to download the .deb manually and sudo apt install ./filename.deb manually and then maybe use apt pins (I hate apt pins) to prevent apt upgrade from upgrading it the next time you run 'apt upgrade' [09:00] or create your private repo with that package & set priorities [09:02] what do you mean by apt does not support downgrade? I have done that many times. [09:04] but thanks for the tips about manually downloading the deb, that is how I solved the issue yesterday [09:04] hello [09:08] With most software updates it's only considered you will go forwards. The older settings/config stored on the system may not be compatible with older version for example. [09:09] elfranne: it's more like it's discouraged & untested, and normally APT will never downgrade on its own [09:09] You can also manually install a specific version with apt if it's available in your repos. [09:10] oh in that way! [09:17] in practical terms it mostly means that package maintaines don't have to consider downgrades when they write preinst/postinst scripts [09:18] so e.g. a package might upgrade some data file format in a postinst and then you downgrade and the old version can't read your data, this will not be considered a bug as downgrades are unsupported [09:19] hi [09:19] n [09:19] i [09:19] g [09:19] g === Xard7 is now known as Xard === oerheks1 is now known as oerheks === paran0n29 is now known as paran0n2 [10:51] poopnigger [10:51] erm what the spruce i did NOT type that [10:53] you make that "joke" in multiple channels.

[16:51] Guest52: https://jumpcloud.com/blog/how-to-enable-full-disk-encryption-ubuntu-22-04 [16:53] Guest52, encrypt for what ? system os or storage ? [16:53] ioria external hard disks which contain only data such as photo, music, documents, ecc.. [16:54] Guest52, much simpler; install libcryptsetup and use gnome-disks [16:55] ioria is it the default software for ubuntu? [16:55] yes [16:56] what should i type in app center to find this software? [16:56] Guest52, disk [16:56] ioria [16:56] Guest52, sorry, disks [16:56] ioria it's already installed [16:57] Guest52, ok start it - look here : https://www.neowin.net/guides/how-to-create-encrypted-partitions-on-linux-with-gnome-disks/ [16:58] ioria which is the difference between disks and luks? [16:59] Guest52, Disks is just a name [16:59] Guest52, it uses luks [17:00] Is there any risk of losing data on the HD? [17:02] Guest52, do you already have data on it ? [17:02] Hello! I'm having a DNS Issue! Isn't that exciting! (mumble grumble) I just upgraded to 24.04 and the DNS can't resolve any of the .local domain names. I have two nics and the `systemd-resolve status` command appears correct [17:02] Guest52: there is always risk with storage devices and filesystems [17:03] maxtim: please use a pastebin service to paste the output of resolvectl status [17:03] should obfuscate any of this? [17:04] Guest52, that procedure will erase everything on it; if you have data on it, you need to backup ; encrypt the device and copy over [17:04] maxtim: local network info isn't private data [17:04] ioria yes, data are already on it, but if it is safer to encrypt first and then add the data, I can very well remove them temporarily, encrypt and then put them back on top, even if they are 2 HDs on which I add and remove files and folders continuously, I don't know if this also has an effect, I mean I wouldn't want that even if I do the [17:04] encryption before putting all the files on there, afterwards they always have to be the same [17:04] leftyfb: that's what I figured. Just checkin [17:05] leftyfb: https://pastebin.com/gAYZdvfA [17:05] Guest52, yes, i strongly suggest backup - encrypt - restore [17:06] maxtim: there's no local "DNS Domain" set. That gets done via DHCP and is configured on your DHCP server, typically your router [17:07] maxtim: is there a reason you're connected to 2 different subnets? [17:07] yes [17:07] This is a nagios server monitoring things [17:07] Guest52, but if your linux-fu is fine, you can resize the drive, create another partition, encrypt the partition, move the data in the new encrypted partition, and then encrypt the first one; needless to say; it's risky [17:08] ioria , ok then I remove all the data, do the encryption and then put them back in the hd, but after I put them, can I use my external hd as usual while continuing to have encryption on the entire hard disk? Maybe I explained myself badly, I mean can I add, delete, modify data continuously and in new data will they also be protected by encryption [17:08] or only the ones I put back in? [17:09] Guest52, no relation between the twos [17:10] ioria i don't need an only encrypted partition, i need to encrypt the whole hard disk [17:10] Guest52, yeah, i got it [17:11] Guest52, think about encryption like a blanket [17:11] ioria if I do as you described in the example where you need to create a new partition, I will then have only one encrypted partition while the other one where I temporarily moved the data will not be, right? [17:12] Guest52, yeah, but you need the space to do all that [17:12] /buffer set color_inactive_fg default [17:13] typo [17:13] encrypt the whole hard disk = start all over with installing ubuntu again, fastest way to do it secure [17:13] oerheks, it's just for data not os [17:14] then put your data on it, done [17:14] oh, 2nd hdd ? [17:14] yep [17:14] ioria i have it too much because i have 2 external hd, so i put all data on first hd, after encryption of the second hd i will put the data again on it. After i will encrypt the first hd and move all data from the second hd, right? [17:15] oerheks i already istalled ubuntu encrypting internal hd [17:15] Guest52, yeah [17:15] sorry, missed that part [17:16] thanks a lot both ioria and oerheks have a nice evening [17:16] Guest52, ok [17:16] leftyfb: well, this device never uses the dhcp server. It's static [17:17] maxtim: ok, so set .local as your domain in your network config [17:18] maxtim: though you really should be using a proper local domain and DNS server [17:20] leftyfb: disco thanks [17:25] ioria oerheks """"" One of the drawbacks to encrypting the device using this method is that you'll be limited to what file system you use. """"" [17:25] maybe it is risky to use NTFS? I generally use NTFS because I have been told that I can read it with both Ubuntu and Windows, while if I use EXT4, then it seems to me that it can only be read by Ubuntu and not by Windows in case I need to read it on a backup computer [17:25] Is it dangerous to use NTFS? Is there a risk of data loss? [17:26] one could use windows encrypted disk on linux too, bitlocker. [17:28] well, encrypted ntfs sharing between platforms, no idea how that works [17:29] oerheks ioria among the options you can choose NTFS, so it should work, but at the same time it describes it as a "DISADVANTAGE" when talking about file system, so I didn't understand if he means that it is risky and that it can cause data loss === h1ghrate is now known as highrate [17:40] oerheks ioria besides NTFS is there another file system that can be read by both Ubuntu and Windows and that I can use without risks? [17:41] without any risks means repairable? fat32 [17:44] oerheks I don't know, I mean I don't want to risk data loss. I just didn't understand why in the guide ioria sent me it says that there are some disadvantages regarding filesystems and I thought that maybe there are some filesystems that are more secure than others [17:45] there is an ext3 util to read and write on windows, not tested and certainly not with encryption [17:45] the windows part makes it difficult, i hope someone else here has an expert view [17:47] the guide says: """""In this short guide, I will show you how to create an encrypted USB stick.

[19:09] hola [19:09] que tal [19:17] sto imparando sorry buna serata [19:52] hi all, is there any way I can find a dbgsym package that are not in http://ddebs.ubuntu.com/ anymore? [19:52] what package exactly? [19:52] and for what ubuntu version? [19:52] linux, but with dbgsym [19:52] 12.04 [19:53] I can see dbgsym file was generated (https://launchpadlibrarian.net/101184666/buildlog_ubuntu-precise-amd64.linux_3.2.0-23.36_BUILDING.txt.gz) but can't find it to download [19:54] I just want to study a bug on that version [19:55] Guest45: ubuntu 12.04? [19:55] Guest45: you mean the release that went End of Life almost 8 years ago? [19:56] nope http://ddebs.ubuntu.com/pool/main/l/linux/ [19:56] leftyfb: yeap, I'm studying this version [19:57] Guest45: Ubuntu 12.04 is no longer supported. Study 22.04 or 24.04 [19:57] thanks leftyfb [19:57] only the old isos are there https://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/ [19:57] oerheks: it was built back there: https://web.archive.org/web/20121118005111/http://ddebs.ubuntu.com/pool/main/l/linux/ [19:57] I can find old isos and packages, but not ddeb packages [20:00] i see the list but the files are not there, sorry, no way to find them [20:00] put this question on askubuntu or stackexchange, maybe you get lucky [20:01] there might be some ubuntu mirror that has those [20:01] kuka_lie, nope. [20:02] serverspace costs money, and such old versions are abandoned after a few years [20:02] it might be possible to recreate them... [20:03] I hope so kuka_lie but I doubt that [20:05] JanC: do such build is complex? I never did it before [20:05] I'll look for mirrors not updated, if not lucky I'll try it [20:07] btw is it possible to install .deb made for debian 12/11 in ubuntu [20:07] kuka_lie: it's not supported === abcX is now known as Guest5692 [22:15] Hi running Ubuntu Server 22.04.05 had trouble when updating - there was a linux-firmware package that would not update - I do not have the exact error message - but something was corrupt. Sorry to be so vague. Today when running the update command again I got the message that there are two install candidates - and now I am lost. Here is the text https://pastebin.com/t2ApsSnm [22:18] i have linux-firmware (20220329.git681281e4-0ubuntu3.36) installed, updatesd yesterday? [22:18] gmachine24: sudo apt install linux-firmware [22:21] linux-firmware/jammy 20220329.git681281e4-0ubuntu1 was from 2022-04-01 [22:21] huh. well, that worked fine - I was a little afraid because I could not install the linux-firmware update yesterday. [22:23] I do not know how often firmware updates come out but I'm guessing it's more frequently than every 30 months [22:24] when there is a reason to do so.. [22:26] ok [22:35] the error message when trying to install the linux-firmware package yesterday was Upgrade: linux-firmware:amd64 (20220329.git681281e4-0ubuntu3.35, 20220329.git681281e4-0ubuntu3.36) [22:35] Error: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) [22:36] anyway, it's fixed. thanks. === h1ghrate is now known as highrate
