Guest50i am going to make ubantu as my only os after using windows and kali linux dual boot system do you guys agree with that10:32
Guest50or i should stay with windows and use these in vm10:32
sixwheeledbeastonly you can really answer that question10:34
Guest50guide me on it plz10:34
zaggynlGuest50: Depends on what you do you with your PC.10:36
zaggynlIf everything runs on Ubuntu, feel free to move over.10:36
Guest50hardcore cs student more specific cybersec10:36
zaggynlSpecifically on the application side, something things simply cannot run on Ubuntu or Linux, although wine and other tools can help out a lot with that.10:37
ogra_you can always run windows in a VM ;)10:39
ogra_(if actually needed)10:39
zaggynlIf hardware permits, will take up some diskspace and memory.10:40
Guest50i mean that i am a cs student and wanted to go with cybersec Ubuntu is good i mean got done most of the things just asking for public opinion10:40
ogra_well, diskspace would be eaten by a parallel install too10:40
zaggynlAdding to that, most vendors have built in support for reinstalling Windows through their tools, not so much for Linux yet.10:41
zaggynlYou're in cybersecurity Guest50, you tell us once you graduate!10:41
Guest50it will take a lot time10:42
Guest50i mean i am going to graduate in 202810:42
Guest50wanna stay in contact do you use discord or any other social media app? zaggynl10:43
zaggynlI do not use discord, you can find me here10:44
Guest50you dont use anything?10:44
Guest50i mean it will be helpful i can ask for guidance10:45
zaggynlWell I'm pretty much always on IRC, liberachat and some other servers.10:45
Guest50oh ok then10:45
zaggynlI'm no cybersecurity expert, I do Linux mostly as a hobby, little bit at work.10:45
ogra_if you are going for cyber security and use discord, first thing you should do is take a very deep look at discord ... ;)10:46
Guest50when i used hexchat and all i never find anyone online on any server but now i guess i should start using irc clint web to chat10:46
ogra_BT'W, this conversation is largely offtopic ... you shuld move to #ubuntu-offtopic or #ubuntu-discuss10:46
zaggynlAgreed.10:47

TonSkilChapter 1: The Seedy Bar14:06
TonSkil 14:06
TonSkilNaruto was feeling restless as he wandered through the streets of Monterrey, Mexico. As he walked, he stumbled upon a seedy bar called "El Coño Rojo," which loosely translates to "The Red Pussy." Naruto was intrigued and decided to check it out.14:06
TonSkil 14:07
TonSkilInside the bar, the atmosphere was thick with the scent of stale beer and cigarette smoke. The walls were adorned with tattered posters of local bullfighting events and scantily clad women. Naruto sat at the bar and ordered a beer from the busty bartender, who seemed to be the only female in the bar. lotuspsychje14:07
TonSkil 14:07
TonSkilAs he sipped his beer, he noticed a handsome man in a suit enter the bar. It was Samuel Garcia, Governor of Nuevo Leon. Naruto was surprised to see him there, but was also intrigued by the idea of seducing a powerful man like him.14:07

AngryTomIs it possible to wake up a HP Laptop by a Remote Desktop connection?17:42
Guest4126Hello everyone. My external HD was no longer reading. Jan_C told me to create an image of the disk and then do the "Repair filesystem" command via the DISKS app because there could be a risk of data loss. Now the HD works, it is read but now I don't know if something has been lost. I have to load the HD image that I had saved on another HD and put it on the HD that wasn't working, right?17:58
Guest4126@JanC17:58
pragmaticenigmaAngryTom: it is possible to wake a machine via network. It used to go under the name of Magic Packet, but newer network protocols exist. Most importantly, the network interface needs to support Wake-on-LAN17:59
leftyfbGuest4126: you don't. And even if there were files lost, they are gone for good17:59
leftyfbGuest4126: you were already told this18:00
leftyfband using that drive is still a risk18:00
Guest4126@leftyfb, yes we already talked about it but then I didn't get any more answers.18:00
oerheksmagnus probably running updats fixes that too18:00
leftyfbGuest4126: there aren't anymore answers. You've been given the answer to your question multiple times18:01
oerhekson the HD that wasn't working .. we told you that the faulty disk is unreliable, and if you wrote over the original data, nobody can telll if you lost files18:02
oerheksyeah18:02
oerhekswhy would you re-use a disk with faulty parts?18:03
Guest4126@leftyfb, there are no lost files in the hd image because I created the hd image before doing "Repair filesyste", in fact Jan_C specifically told me to do it first because if something was lost during the repair process then through the HD image I would have everything the same as before and so I was putting this HD image back on the hd because I'm afraid that something was lost, I certainly can't check all the files and folders18:03
Guest4126one by one, and then I don't remember everything that was inside, that is, if something is missing I can't notice it.18:03
leftyfbGuest4126: if files were lost during the filesystem repair, then they were lost to begin with. As in, they were corrupt and not recoverable.18:04
leftyfba filesystem repair won't just delete files that are fine18:05
oerheksis there a support question in this story?18:06
Guest4126@oerheks, leftyfb  I didn't write anything on the hd after doing "repair filesystem" and then the disk is not defective, I was told that it was an error that could simply derive from a power failure or if it had not been disconnected via the "unmount" and "safe removal" functions, but the hd works perfectly. I was doing this operation simply to have everything as before in case with the "repair filesystem" operation something had18:07
Guest4126been lost and I didn't even know it, then I realize it if I look for it and don't find it eventually.18:07
leftyfbGuest4126: there's still a chance the drive is bad. And again, there is no way to recover files that might have been deleted during an fsck18:08
Guest4126@oerheks, leftyfb but I made the image of the HD before doing "repair filesystem", I was told to do it this way to avoid any data loss. If it was after I could understand, but I made it first specifically to avoid this data loss problem.18:09
oerhekswe can't tell either, if somthing has been lost.you overwrote the disk.18:09
leftyfbGuest4126: you keep repeating the same thing over and over. It does not change the fact that a drive that was "recovered" using fsck could still potentially have issues regardless if you notice them now or not.18:10
leftyfbGuest4126: to answer your question, you can use the following command to give you a very arduous output to find the differences between 2 filesystems. Mount the image you took and run: rsync -av --dry-run --itemize-changes /path/to/drive/ /path/to/mounted/image/18:11
leftyfbGuest4126: good luck18:11
Guest4126@oerheks, leftyfb sorry, I'm not good at PC, I didn't understand anything. The point of the discussion is that I created the image of the HD BEFORE doing "repair filesystem" so if this command also made me lose something, I always have the previous image when everything was there, right?18:12
leftyfbGuest4126: there you go again repeating the same thing, which doesn't change anything18:12
Guest4126https://drive.google.com/file/d/1qd_a3vtQNDA46TqGoz3o3OtERLpR_wL4/view?usp=sharing18:13
Guest4126DISKS tell that the disk is OK18:13
leftyfbGuest4126: if you took an image of a corrupt filesystem, an fsck of the original or the image of the filesystem will only clean up the filesystem, which might include deleting pointers to beyond recoverable files. There is no getting those back either way18:13
leftyfbGuest4126: good luck18:14
Guest4126@oerheks, leftyfb  ok thanks, Jan told me to do it this way so I thought that by doing this I could be sure to have everything as before. Sorry for the inconvenience and thanks for the help. Just to conclude, so now I can delete the image file that I created right? if I understood correctly it is no longer needed18:17
leftyfbGuest4126: since you've indicated you don't have any other backups, I would keep that until you make proper backups first18:18
Guest4126@leftyfb, I already have the backup on the second HD but it is not updated, because I can not transfer all the content every time I work on the first HD to the second. I need to learn to use programs that have this function. They suggested two to me: Grsync and Timeshift18:20
Guest4126which of the two is the best?18:20
leftyfbrsync18:21
leftyfbfeel free to try either one the graphical solutions you mentioned and pick which one you like best18:21
Guest4126ok, thanks for everything, I really hope not to go back to windows and I'm always sorry, but I'm not good at the pc and getting used to ubuntu is not easy plus all the things that from time to time I don't know how to do or maybe I do something wrong and then I don't know how to solve, it also needs to be learned and it takes time especially for those who are not good at the pc like me, many things are different, I don't know how18:26
Guest4126to use the terminal and then I notice some compatibility problems, like every now and then the video flickers maybe I have to install the proprietary drivers for the NVIDIA card. Thanks again and happy new year to everyone18:26

enyc_Hrrm; contact online with Ubuntu 24.04.1  having all sorts of nensens with top half of terminal windows and stuff not screlling20:13
bpromptspinningCat: yes and no, depends on what you want specifically, there are many apps for note-taking or just "idea catching", and there are many schedulers with note facilities20:13
spinningCatjust i need paper and date on the top20:14
enyc_I'm PARTICULARLY wondering if I can/should get them to try a  X11 fallback session ?20:14
enyc_they have had some success trying xterm instead of gnome-terminal,  but results are inconsistent20:14

spinningCatthank you bprompt20:28
bpromptspinningCat: btw, I use copyq for lots of note-taking myself, is a clipboard manager, does note-taking to-from clipboard or freely, I use it pretty heavily :)20:33
spinningCatin tomboy accessing notes according to date seems really handy20:36
spinningCati like it20:36
oerhekscopyQ is great, it takes screenshots as well20:36
spinningCati will take a look at copyQ too20:37
spinningCati bet tomboy is kde thing20:39
bpromptspinningCat: https://snipboard.io/P0wAF7.jpg   <--- a screenshot of mine, you can see the clipboard there, I have a limit of 160 entries in the history, besides also have those tabs you see there, each tab has bunches of notes in each, sometimes is just stuff I move from the clipboard, sometimes stuff I type in20:40
pragmaticenigmaspinningCat: It's a Gnome team app20:40
pragmaticenigmaspinningCat: https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Tomboy20:40
bpromptspinningCat: nope, tomboy is not kde, I think is gtk20:40
bpromptspinningCat: but kde has stuff like that too, like Knotes20:41
bpromptspinningCat: kde also has sticky notes20:41
spinningCatqt seems kde-influenced20:42
spinningCatit doesnt look like gnome qte20:42
spinningCator i may be wrong20:42
wooshtwhen using pxe boot -> pxelinux -> autoinstall is the minimum network transfer the size of the live-server iso? Seems bonkers to transfer 2.7GiB for a minimal server deployment to a VM20:43
wooshtI took a look at the noble-mini-iso but that was definitely barking up the wrong tree20:44
=== Sidewyz1 is now known as Sidewyz
oerhekslive server iso should work, not done that myself for years20:53
oerhekshttps://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/netbooting-the-live-server-installer/1451020:54
wooshtwhat's the best way to kick off autoinstall if not that20:55
oerhekslive server?20:55
wooshtback in the day we used to set everything up with preseed and once the minimal system was up use salt or ansible or whatever to get desired configuration state20:56
wooshtnow d-i is long gone and I'm hoping theres a better way as opposed to serving gigs of iso for each deployment20:56
leftyfbwoosht: https://canonical-subiquity.readthedocs-hosted.com/en/latest/intro-to-autoinstall.html20:57
oerheksSince 23.04, we switched over to autoinstall.yaml20:57
leftyfbwoosht: ansible is still my preferred solution for post-install deployment20:57
wooshtty leftyfb I've got autoinstall working fine right now just hoping to optimize20:58
oerhekslook under the path '/snap/ubuntu-desktop-bootstrap/<version>/bin/subiquity/examples' for t  autoinstall yaml examples.20:58
leftyfbwoosht: cool, good luck20:58
wooshtit's more that immediately prior to autoinstall my vm has to download 2.7 GiB from a webserver which seems rather phat when all I want is minimal system20:59
leftyfbwoosht: so choose a minimal install21:00
leftyfb  source:21:00
leftyfb    id: ubuntu-server-minimal21:00
wooshteasy enough of course, but prior to ever getting user-data file busybox is downloading the entire live-server iso21:02
leftyfbwoosht: so you want to install ubuntu without the installer?21:03
wooshtrather -- hoping theres an installer that's not 2.7GiB21:03
gordonjcpdoes it not just pull down a miniroot with the installer, and then pull down the packages it needs?21:04
gordonjcpdisclaimer: it's been literally ten years since I had to do this21:05
wooshtgordonjcp: that's how it used to work and I'm hoping it can still be so21:05
gordonjcpwoosht: I guess it depends what you're trying to do21:05
gordonjcpI never install Ubuntu Server on more than one machine at a time these days, and do everything in Docker21:05
oerheksmini iso still exists https://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-mini-iso/noble/daily-live/20250107/21:06
wooshtbut the way it seems to work now is you append a url to the kernel when booting from pxelinux and that's the 2.7GiB live-server iso I'm referring to21:06
oerheksbut that uses yaml, not preseed21:06
wooshtoerheks: I gave that a try but it doesn't work with autoinstall, the script fails looking for a squashfs in casper21:07
wooshtinstead that mini iso is some sort of frontend to pick a version and then download the live-server (2.7GiB) and kick it off21:07
leftyfbwoosht: try something like this: https://pastebin.com/raw/hZf4EUE421:09
oerheksagain, Since 23.04, we switched over to autoinstall.yaml. so look for 22.04 lts?21:09
leftyfbalso, what hypervisor are you using? Why not just use LXD and the cloud images?21:09
wooshtthese guys are broadcom cucks so it vmware ftl21:10
leftyfblets keep it PG here please21:11
wooshtsorry -- and that pastebin looks very promising21:11
leftyfbit's only for qemu though21:11
wooshtdang cause 579MiB is exactly what I was hoping for21:12

pragmaticenigmaKunor: the profile manager has been a part of firefox for quite a while, it's just not exposed as majority of users are interested in single user mode23:53
