| Biessie | Once20.04 releases, 19.10 support drops? | 00:07 |
|---|---|---|
| oerheks | 19.10 support will end 20.07, 9 mo | 00:08 |
| hmmmm | hi, i have Xubuntu 19.04 installed, but to get metasploit I added the Kali package repository | 00:32 |
| oerheks | hmmmm, that makes a not-ubuntu installation, good luck with that. | 00:32 |
| hmmmm | then when i sudo apt update and sudo apt upgrade, it started updating all my xubuntu packages with kali linux packages... when i rebooted it went to a blank black screen with a blinking underscore | 00:32 |
| hmmmm | help? | 00:33 |
| hmmmm | how do i undo this? | 00:33 |
| oerheks | reinstall xubuntu. | 00:33 |
| hmmmm | i have a home directory that i don't want wiped out though | 00:33 |
| oerheks | but take 19.10, that is supported. | 00:33 |
| Jordan_U | hggdh: The Ubuntu installer will allow you to reinstall while preserving your home directory, even without /home on a separate partition. | 00:34 |
| Jordan_U | hmmmm: ^^ | 00:34 |
| oerheks | true. | 00:34 |
| hmmmm | really? | 00:34 |
| hmmmm | should i try to back up with a livecd just in case? | 00:34 |
| Jordan_U | hmmmm: Backups are always a good idea. | 00:35 |
| hmmmm | also, why is this even possible in the first place? | 00:35 |
| o0 | hmmmm: https://github.com/rapid7/metasploit-framework/wiki/Nightly-Installers | 00:35 |
| hmmmm | doesn't it make sense that you'd add alternate repositories to get one piece of software, not everything? | 00:35 |
| oerheks | "if you have no backup of your precious data, it is not important" | 00:35 |
| Jordan_U | hmmmm: If you add a repository with packages that are newer than the ones you have installed, they will be installed automatically. There are ways to add repositories without that happening, but it is not the default. | 00:36 |
| hmmmm | this is ridiculous, it's an apt beginner's trap | 00:36 |
| exit70 | also consider whether there is disk/home encryption | 00:36 |
| hmmmm | how could've i anticipated it would destroy my installation | 00:37 |
| oerheks | err, you understand kali messes around with privelidges and apparmor? | 00:37 |
| hmmmm | no, did not know that | 00:37 |
| oerheks | it is not ubuntu anymore | 00:37 |
| oerheks | one should run that in a VM, kvm preferrably | 00:37 |
| oerheks | vbox is too easy to escape | 00:38 |
| oerheks | grinn | 00:38 |
| exit70 | or just pick an old laptop | 00:39 |
| hmmmm | hey guys, how do i reinstall ubuntu if it was previously installed with a single LVM partition? | 01:17 |
| hmmmm | i am in the installer, i selected "Something else", and it gives me the screen where you manually edit the partitions. /dev/mapper/vgxubuntu-root i set the mount point to / with the same ext4 fs, unselected "Format?", didn't need to change anything for the swap partition, and it doesn't give me any options for /dev/sda1 | 01:18 |
| hmmmm | ...is this right? | 01:19 |
| hmmmm | well i just went for it, the installer gave a warning that the directory structure won't be deleted, so i guess that's reassuring | 01:20 |
| Jordan_U | hmmmm: Sorry for the late answer, but that seems right. Do you have a UEFI based machine, and did /dev/sda1 end up being a fat32 partition mounted at /boot/efi/ ? | 01:23 |
| hmmmm | i don't remember what i put for the bootloader type in the original installation | 01:23 |
| hmmmm | it didn't say anything for partition type in //dev/sda1 - no details | 01:23 |
| Jordan_U | hmmmm: Did you choose the option that lets you run other programs while the installer is running? If so, can you open a terminal and pastebin the output of "mount"? That should hopefully clear up how the partitions are being used. Either way, you probably have things setup correctly. | 01:25 |
| hmmmm | https://nYiWicvc | 01:27 |
| hmmmm | oops | 01:27 |
| hmmmm | https://pastebin.com/nYiWicvc | 01:27 |
| hmmmm | oh this doesn't sound good... "Error restoring installed applications - an error occured while restoring previously-installed applications. The installation will continue, but you may have to manually reinstall some applications after the computer reboots" - actually that doesn't sound terrible | 01:28 |
| hmmmm | oh dammit i forgot to backup the tftp server config | 01:28 |
| hmmmm | but other than that, we're back! | 01:30 |
| Jordan_U | hmmmm: Have you successfully rebooted? I don't see any EFI System Partition mounted. Is your computer configured to boot via UEFI? | 01:32 |
| === tds1 is now known as tds | ||
| hmmmm | oh, no, EFI was disabled | 01:33 |
| Jordan_U | hmmmm: That error likely refers to applications you had installed from Kali's repositories. | 01:33 |
| hmmmm | and yes, i have successfully rebooted | 01:34 |
| Jordan_U | hmmmm: Great, then sda1 is probably being used as a BIOS Boot Parititon (which has no filesystem, and thus doesn't get mounted). | 01:34 |
| hmmmm | i think i'm mostly back on track now | 01:37 |
| hmmmm | thanks | 01:37 |
| Jordan_U | hmmmm: You're welcome. | 01:37 |

| exit70 | uid and gid | 02:01 |
| rfm | al_nz1, number of links to the file (1002 is a lot, what is going on) and uid of owner (numeric because apparently 65534 isn't used in your /etc/passwd) | 02:02 |
| exit70 | hmm ignore my answer | 02:02 |
| al_nz1 | rfm: thanks. Re the link | 02:02 |
| al_nz1 | links - its a file structure created by a NAS - has lots of sub dirs | 02:03 |
| rfm | al_nz1, ok, all those subdirs have the '..' link pointing back up. (65534 is usually "nobody", btw) | 02:04 |
| al_nz1 | what do you mean by .. ? as in when you cdup with cd ../ ? | 02:05 |
| rfm | al_nz1, yes, every directory contains a entry named ".." which is a link to the parent. That's why "cd .." takes you up a level... | 02:06 |
| al_nz1 | so the ".." is related to the 1002? | 02:11 |
| rfm | al_nz1, yes, presumably the directory has 1001 subdirectories, each with its .. link and the parent of the directory you are listing has a link down into it, making 1002 | 02:13 |
| al_nz1 | Thanks rfm | 02:20 |
| al_nz1 | rfm: is 0 = root? | 02:32 |
| al_nz1 | in the context of chown 65534:0 | 02:32 |
| GoneViral | al_nz1: no it is not | 02:53 |
| GoneViral | al_nz1: the second parameter is the group ID | 02:53 |
| Jordan_U | GoneViral:nA UID or GID of 0 is root. | 02:56 |
| Jordan_U | al_nz1: ^^ | 02:56 |
| GoneViral | al_nz1: ah yes. | 02:57 |

| mkquist | YogaRolf: same question that ktosiek asked tho... wifi card? | 06:53 |
| YogaRolf | hmm | 06:53 |
| mkquist | YogaRolf: and do you know if your system 'sees ' it? like what does lspci give? | 06:54 |
| YogaRolf | not sure how do i check what i have | 06:54 |
| YogaRolf | 2sec | 06:54 |

| Bomber4Chats | 7th time or more that I try to install / reinstall linux mint on my MSI comp. and I keep getting to the initramfs console on boot, and when exiting it says it cannot find the UUID of the / partition, even though the UUID mentioned is 1-to-1 what is in the /etc/fstab file... | 08:21 |
| Bomber4Chats | I am using an /boot/efi partition, or at least I'm trying to do so | 08:21 |
| Ben64 | Mint has it's own support channel, #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org | 08:21 |
| Hamilton | Is hibernate disabled by default on 18.04? Then why could I do sudo systemctl hibernate? (but it didn't work on poweron) | 08:21 |
| Bomber4Chats | Ben64 pretty dead channel. I'd like to believe people in the Ubuntu channel might be familiar with this "UUID does not exist" error | 08:22 |
| Ben64 | This channel is only for Ubuntu issues | 08:23 |
| Bomber4Chats | linux mint runs on ubuntu, no? It says on boot that it runs a 5.0.0.32 image | 08:24 |
| Ben64 | It isn't Ubuntu, it's based on Ubuntu | 08:24 |
| lotuspsychje | Bomber4Chats: Ben64 just explained you we cant support it | 08:24 |
| Bomber4Chats | ¯\(°_o)/¯ So I don't have linux mint, I have Ubuntu 5.0.0.32 ^_^' | 08:25 |
| Bomber4Chats | k, nm. hoping someone will be willing to help in private | 08:25 |
| rory | 5.0.0.32 sounds like a Linux kernel version, this will be across all distros, Ubuntu, Debian, Mint, Fedora... this is specifically Ubuntu only support, because Linux Mint is similar enough to lull you into a sense of false security, then confuse you with a difference. | 08:27 |
| Bomber4Chats | but the kernel boots the same across all distros, doesn't it? | 08:27 |
| Bomber4Chats | just the boot sequence | 08:27 |
| rory | yes but this is support for Ubuntu, similar to how you can't take your Vauxhall to a Ford garage even though they both use gasoline | 08:28 |

| dbugger | Hi guys. I have a small crisis here. My PC boot. It shows a message of "recovering journal". What can I do?? | 10:07 |
| dbugger | My PC won't boot now. I'm in root shell from the recovery mode | 10:07 |
| dbugger | I tried a fsck -f / but it says "/dev/sda5 is already mounted" | 10:08 |
| dbugger | What can I do?? | 10:08 |
| sixwheeledbeast | you can't fsck a device that's mounted | 10:12 |
| dbugger | Does that mean I have to use a live CD? | 10:14 |
| === Alina-malina_ is now known as Alina-malina | ||
| juanonymous | ok Ben64 | 10:15 |
| sixwheeledbeast | If you have a an issue at boot that need fsck I would use a live image and while booting the live image I think you hold Esc to get the splash screen you can select Check disks | 10:15 |
| sixwheeledbeast | Either that or you can just boot the live image and use gparted to run a fsck | 10:16 |
| dbugger | I will do that | 10:16 |
| dbugger | Let's see | 10:16 |
| dbugger | Running | 10:18 |
| sixwheeledbeast | If you use gparted make sure it's not mounted and right click then Check | 10:19 |
| dbugger | If it was mounted, I wouldn't be able to check it, no? | 10:20 |
| sixwheeledbeast | I think it should tell you and you have to force it, you shouldn't fsck a mounted device you'll cause data loss | 10:21 |
| dbugger | https://paste.pics/fcdcef65522adeaebd862c7629e403e1 | 10:21 |
| dbugger | It's green | 10:21 |
| dbugger | This is what I'm getting now | 10:23 |
| dbugger | https://paste.pics/c2e4288d686c491eb66fae1982cb9237 | 10:23 |
| dbugger | When I boot | 10:23 |
| dbugger | The message about the journal is gone, but it's still not booting | 10:23 |
| sixwheeledbeast | just wait a little | 10:24 |
| dbugger | Ok. I will | 10:25 |
| dbugger | 15 minutes should suffice? | 10:25 |
| sixwheeledbeast | I was thinking more like a couple of minutes. what does it display now? | 10:26 |
| dbugger | Still the same... | 10:26 |
| dbugger | No change | 10:31 |
| === Clippy is now known as Birosso | ||
| sixwheeledbeast | did gparted complete on the correct drive? | 10:34 |
| dbugger | There is only one | 10:35 |
| sixwheeledbeast | You could try to fsck again with the live image, always make sure its not mounted first. You could mount the drive to see if your stuff it there and maybe back it up if that's of concern. After that you could try to manually repair boot or reinstall Ubuntu over the top keeping your documents. | 10:39 |
| dbugger | I have Timeshift installed. Maybe doing a restore from yesterday could help?? | 10:43 |
| dbugger | sixwheeledbeast: isn't gparted going fsdk? | 10:48 |
| sixwheeledbeast | gparted should have done fsck with the check option? yo could run fsck from a terminal manually if you want | 10:50 |
| itxo | Can I install some package from a private repo (specifically https://jitsi.org/downloads/) without actually adding the repo to my sources and trusting their keys, etc.? | 10:51 |
| itxo | I wouldn't mind generally, but I'd like to avoid querying these repos every time I apt update | 10:51 |
| dbugger | sixwheeledbeast: could you confirm me which command exactly should I run? | 10:52 |
| sixwheeledbeast | fsck and then the partition | 10:55 |
| dbugger | I mean the exact commands | 10:55 |
| dbugger | For the first, I used "fsck -f /dev/sda5". Is that correct? | 10:56 |
| sixwheeledbeast | I have no idea where your partitions are but if you believe its sda5 then "sudo fsck /dev/sda5" | 10:56 |
| dbugger | Yeah, I did that. I get the same message I get when I try to not normally, and it freezes | 10:57 |

| tomreyn | Gemosa: if you have an OEM installation then you'd best seek support with the OEM, since it can differ from standard installations. | 11:51 |
| tomreyn | Gemosa: alternatively you could do a standard installation by writing the installer to an usb stick and booting off that. but you may end up without vendor specific customizations, software and drivers then. | 11:52 |

| pragmaticenigma | Dwarf: Do you need client support of that feature, or server level? | 13:53 |
| Dwarf | It seems that the server also needs to be version >=8.2 in order to support it, though I couldn't find any documentation on this | 13:54 |

| Dwarf | My client is 8.2, my Ubuntu server is stuck on whatever Bionic ships | 13:57 |
| pragmaticenigma | Dwarf: Bionic is 7.6, it's something I would caution against trying to upgrade as it may break other things on your system | 13:58 |

| pragmaticenigma | Dwarf: Eoan (19.10) has 8.0, and the upcoming Focal (20.04) will only go to 8.1 for now. I suspect that the feature your seeking is accompanied by other buggy features which is why Ubuntu is staying a little behind for now | 13:59 |

| pavlos | yes | 14:55 |
| malekmaroc7 | 1.8 GB | 14:55 |
| malekmaroc7 | (2048 MB) | 14:55 |
| malekmaroc7 | ...I hope that's not the problem... | 14:56 |
| pragmaticenigma | That's a bit low | 14:56 |
| malekmaroc7 | Yeah just a bit | 14:56 |
| pavlos | malekmaroc7: it is the min requirement for ubuntu 18.04 ... More memory would be better | 14:56 |
| malekmaroc7 | I wanted to use Ubuntu 19.10 btw | 14:57 |
| malekmaroc7 | yeah more would be better though | 14:57 |
| pragmaticenigma | Current recommend system specifications are 2Ghz dual core processor, 4 GiB System Memory | 14:57 |
| malekmaroc7 | O_O | 14:58 |
| pragmaticenigma | malekmaroc7: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SystemRequirements | 14:58 |
| malekmaroc7 | Well, what OS Version could you suggest for me? | 14:58 |
| pavlos | malekmaroc7: can you run inxi in a terminal? post the output ... inxi -F | nc termbin.com 9999 | 14:59 |
| pragmaticenigma | It's not a matter of versions... those system specifications have the recommendation for awhile now. You might have some luck using a different flavor such as Xubuntu, or Lubuntu. Which do have lower system requirements. | 14:59 |
| MonkeyDust | malekmaroc7: try lubuntu or xubuntu | 14:59 |
| malekmaroc7 | Do Lubuntu and Xubuntu have the same features like Ubuntu? | 15:00 |
| MonkeyDust | malekmaroc7: i guess they do, you can try it with a live session | 15:01 |
| pavlos | JumpinJack: VNC uses port 5900+n to comm | 15:02 |
| malekmaroc7 | Alrighty! I'll try that out and I will say the result. | 15:02 |
| JumpinJack | I did a vncserver :9 to use port 5909 | 15:03 |
| JumpinJack | when I use nmap or telnet to check to see if port 5909 is open, I am get indiications that the port is close. | 15:04 |
| JumpinJack | It may still be an issue with the cloud provider (its NOT AWS or Azure, which are VERY straightforward) | 15:05 |
| pragmaticenigma | JumpinJack: Is there a display for VNC to attach to? | 15:05 |
| JumpinJack | yes, there are NO errors. when VNC starts, All indications are an error with port not eing opened. | 15:05 |
| pragmaticenigma | JumpinJack: Is the VNC server process seen in "top" or similar process viewer? | 15:06 |
| pragmaticenigma | JumpinJack: ps -aux | egrep -i vnc | 15:06 |

| pavlos | JumpinJack: maybe you're running vino-server | 15:12 |
| pavlos | JumpinJack: just tested on a VM ... on server: running vino-server, netstat -at shows 5900 listening, on client: vncviewer <ip> it connects | 15:17 |

| mustmodify | the roman emporer? | 15:29 |
| oeuvre | yes | 15:30 |
| oeuvre | also you guys should start using windows 95 instead | 15:30 |
| mustmodify | Good morning. I replaced my router and restarted my ubuntu and windows machines. Windows is working but ubuntu machine didn't grab an IP address... I tried `dhclient` and it still does not have an address. What's the next step for troubleshooting? | 15:30 |

| pragmaticenigma | mustmodify: make sure the cables are firmly attached at both the router and the computer | 15:31 |
| mustmodify | I'll verify. | 15:31 |

| pavlos | mustmodify: dmesg may have some info enp2s0: link is not ready | 15:35 |
| === skookum3 is now known as skookum | ||
| mustmodify | just out of curiosity, why is it enp2s0 instead of eth0? And where would I have gotten that number? | 15:47 |
| mustmodify | that identifier? | 15:47 |
| pavlos | mustmodify: udev rules assign those, based on your h/w | 15:52 |
| pavlos | mustmodify: you can modify /etc/default/grub, GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="quiet net.ifnames=0", sudo update-grub, reboot, and you will get eth0, eth1, ... | 15:54 |
| mustmodify | ok. I tend to leave this machine running for months at a time, sometimes tinkering without restarting. So I'm worried I've hosed the configuration somehow. | 15:54 |
