[00:40] <PeGaSuS> well.. something must went wrong on the 1st cloning attempt.
[00:40] <PeGaSuS> I just re-cloned the disk and all works fine and dandy
[00:40] <PeGaSuS> thanks for the ideas/tips/help, though :D
[00:49] <PeGaSuS> btw, stupid question: if I do `cat /proc/cpuinfo` and I see "processor : 3", does this means 4 cores?
[00:50] <rbox> it could be 2 threads with SMT
[00:51] <rbox> look for 'core id' instead
[00:51] <rbox> or 'cpu cores'
[00:51] <rbox> 2 cores with SMT*
[00:53] <PeGaSuS> oh. apparently it's 2c with SMT. cpu cores says 2 and core ids are 0 and 1
[00:53] <PeGaSuS> thanks!

[08:46] <[a]> Greetings to all. I need some tips/assistance with stopping or pausing at the Ubuntu 22.04 boot menu to enable selection of single-user mode for resetting the root password. The issue is that it boots too quickly, and I'm unable to access the boot menu. Additionally, I'm using VMware vSphere to manage/boot the VM. Thank you in advance for your
[08:46] <[a]> help.
[09:10] <vlt> [a]: see my answer in #linux
[09:13] <vlt> [a]: I would mount the VM root filesystem from somewhere outside, chroot into it and change the password there.
[09:14] <ubuntu_> hello
[09:14] <ubuntu_> i'm hwere
[09:14] <[a]> vlt: Yes, that's the plan. I need to pause GRUB first.'
[09:14] <ubuntu_> what?
[09:15] <vlt> [a]: Sorry, I was not clear. I meant, I would not boot the VM but change the password from an external system.
[09:15] <vlt> [a]: Take the VM image, find the root filesystem, use losetup or kpartx to make it mountable, ...
[09:16] <ubuntu_> what are you talkign about?
[09:17] <[a]> vlt: Oh.... I think I get your idea. mount the ext and chroot ... problem is, I only have access to this VM. All others are restricted.
[09:17] <vlt> ubuntu_: You could just read along and the room.
[09:17] <[a]> vlt: I thnk my only goal right now is to pause and scroll up/down GRUB.
[09:17] <vlt> [a]: Can you describe the setup? What’s “all others”?
[09:17] <ubuntu_> vlt, i have no idea whaty our talking about or what is happening, i thought we were going to talk about federation in the context of irc
[09:19] <vlt> [a]: Pausing GRUB would have been my first attempt, too. But I, personally, wouldn’t bother any longer and just mount the thing :D
[09:19] <[a]> vlt: [a]: Can you describe the setup? What’s “all others”?
[09:19] <[a]> Meaning... the VMware vShare only allows me to have access to this VM that we somehow forgot the password.
[09:20] <vlt> [a]: Hmmm ... could you access the running machine via ssh (and a key)?
[09:21] <[a]> I've no control of other VMs where I can mount the image.
[09:21] <[a]> [a]: Hmmm ... could you access the running machine via ssh (and a key)?
[09:21] <[a]> Answer: No, I dont have any other account.
[09:23] <vlt> [a]: Then I might be out of ideas, because I don’t know how VMware works. Does it provide a way to edit kernel boot params?
[09:24] <[a]> No... no facility to edit kernel boot params, I checked VMware docs and found nothing so far.
[09:25] <[a]> It still confuses me why Grub is too fast...
[09:28] <[a]> For some reason.. ""Shift" key (or "Esc" key for some boxen)  doesnt work in VMware vShere
[09:31] <vlt> [a]: I have used QEMU/KVM in the past and there was a “fullscreen” mode I could initially run a guest VM with. In that mode more keys were passed through directly. Maybe you can find something similar.
[09:32] <[a]> vlt: Yup... I'll try "fullscreen" mode.
[09:32] <[a]> and see if it captures Shift/ESC
[09:46] <noob1> Having a nightmare trying to get Docker up and running on Ubuntu. Finally managed to get everything done to the point where Docker is now in my Applications in the GUI, but when I click on it nothing happens. When I do a status check thru terminal, it says it's running, but there's no indication of anything going on from graphical interface, and
[09:46] <noob1> another launchpad cli I'm trying to run with docker won't start because it says "docker isn't running" Anyone had a similar issue?
[09:49] <[a]> vlt: Thank you for your assistance. I've successfully discovered a method to interrupt the boot process using the ESC key with the vSphere interface in fullscreen ...I've captured my screen as https://bsd.to/M4d6/raw .
[09:52] <vlt> [a]: Does pressing “e” or [TAB] do anything there?
[09:53] <[a]> vlt: Yes, 'e' is working just fine
[09:56] <vlt> [a]: Ok, great! I was not sure if you’re stuck there now.
[10:22] <lubuntu> hi
[10:36] <m45faleh> hi hello
[11:28] <thorsten`> How can I install texlive-2023 on ubuntu 22.04 lts? is there a launchpad or something similar
[11:28] <thorsten`> ... asking for a friend :-) (seriously)
[11:40] <ravage> [thorsten](https://matrix.to/#/@libera_thorsten:xentonix.net): there is a snap with an older version. but it always produces the latest version when built. so that would be 2024. testing it right now
[11:41] <ravage> not sure that nick completion did what i wanted
[11:44] <thorsten`> maybe 2024 would also be OK (hoping that it's backwards compatible)
[11:44] <ravage> you could build any version i guess
[11:46] <ravage> the binaries are prefixed with texlive-basic. that may be a problem for existing apps. but you could symlink that of course
[11:46] <thorsten`> tbh, I don't know what 'snap' means
[11:46] <ravage> texlive-basic.tex for example
[11:47] <ravage> i can upload it if you just want to test if you can make it work
[11:47] <oerheks> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/texlive-base
[11:48] <oerheks> mantic and noble give 2023 ..
[11:48] <ravage> he said he is on LTS
[11:48] <ravage> existing LTS 🙂
[11:50] <thorsten`> hm maybe it's simply to complicated :-(
[11:52] <thorsten`> I don't have access to the machine myself
[13:41] <realivanjx> hi. i am currently on ubuntu 23.10 now. when 24.04 is released will i be able to just upgrade or do i need to reinstall?
[13:43] <oerheks> you can upgrade, but the release to 24.04 will be released some time later, with 24.04.1, not the same day
[13:44] <realivanjx> oh so to upgrade i need to wait for 24.04.1?
[13:45] <oerheks> yes, same story as 21.10 to 24.04 lts https://askubuntu.com/questions/1403527/how-to-upgrade-from-ubuntu-21-10-to-ubuntu-22-04
[13:46] <oerheks> one could use 'do-release-upgrade -d' .. but we advise to wait
[13:46] <realivanjx> ok thanks
[13:58] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[13:58] <ogra_> oerheks, realivanjx, in fact 23.10 will allow you to upgrade on release day of 24.04 ... the .1 upgrade is for LTS->LTS upgrades
[13:59] <ogra_> (well, or a few days after release day, but definitely before .1 )
[14:04] <lotuspsychje> ogra_: doesnt the upgrade path need to be set open first?
[14:04] <ogra_> yes, and it will be for nonLTS upgrades ...
[14:04] <lotuspsychje> ah
[14:04] <ogra_> usually way before .1
[14:04] <lotuspsychje> but not on release day?
[14:05] <ogra_> (how else would we get mass-testing to find remaining issues for .1)
[14:05] <ogra_> really depends how exhausted the release team is on release day 🙂
[14:05] <lotuspsychje> i see
[14:06] <ogra_> it is usually within the first week after release once people recovered from multiple nightshifts
[14:06] <lotuspsychje> :p
[14:06] <snowman6> :)
[14:06] <snowman6> someone explain what is this app?
[14:06] <lotuspsychje> wich app?
[14:07] <snowman6> hexchat
[14:07] <lotuspsychje> its an irc client snowman6
[14:08] <snowman6> um sry but what is irc
[14:08] <lotuspsychje> !irc | snowman6 start here
[14:09] <snowman6> ah thx
[14:09] <snowman6> so kind\
[14:09] <lotuspsychje> snowman6: this is the ubuntu support channel you joined here, so here you can ask ubuntu related questions
[14:09] <snowman6> oh really?
[14:13] <snowman6> is time to go, thx guys
[16:10] <floown> Hi. When I connect to my Ubuntu servor, I can see this message : *** Livepatch has fixed kernel vulnerabilities. System restart recommended on the closest maintenance window ***
[16:11] <floown> What should I do, please?
[16:11] <floown> # cat /var/run/reboot-required.pkgs
[16:11] <floown> cat: /var/run/reboot-required.pkgs: No such file or directory
[16:18] <leftyfb> floown: nothing
[16:21] <tomreyn> floown: you should restart the system when you can afford to do so.
[16:21] <donofrio> eek did apt-get update and now it is broken ;( https://paste.opensuse.org/pastes/614a04abfa54
[16:22] <leftyfb> donofrio: that would be your 3rd party application that "broke" it
[16:22] <floown> Ok guys, thanks
[16:22] <leftyfb> donofrio: remove the duplicate repo which it's warning you about
[16:23] <donofrio> Failed to take /etc/passwd lock: Invalid argument
[16:25] <leftyfb> donofrio: ( uname -a ; cat /etc/os-release ; apt-cache policy debconf-i18n debconf libpam-systemd systemd systemd-oomd libsystemd-shared systemd-resolved libsystemd-shared systemd-sysv udev libudev1 ) | nc termbin.com 9999
[16:29] <donofrio> https://paste.opensuse.org/pastes/45e693b1cbac
[16:29] <leftyfb> :/
[16:30] <leftyfb> donofrio: you're running an ancient kernel which isn't supported anymore on an OS which isn't released nor supported here yet
[16:31] <donofrio> does that preclude resolving the passwd issue?
[16:31] <leftyfb> just out of curiosity, how and why in the world are you running that old of a kernel on an unreleased version of ubuntu?
[16:31] <donofrio> been runing 24.04 for three months flawlessly so far....
[16:31] <leftyfb> donofrio: there is zero expectation of functionality or support for unreleased versions of OS's
[16:32] <leftyfb> !next | donofrio
[16:32] <leftyfb> donofrio: but really, why 4.4?
[16:33] <donofrio> wsl
[16:33] <leftyfb> :/
[16:33] <leftyfb> gotta love them running an EOL kernel
[16:33] <donofrio> xfce4 is running and all has been well besides this bump
[16:34] <leftyfb> donofrio: good luck in #ubuntu-next
[16:34] <leftyfb> donofrio: make sure to tell them it's WSL
[16:35] <donofrio> why hate on wsl, like I said this has been running full gui smoothly last three to four months and no issues till just today....with passwd lock issue?
[16:36] <leftyfb> donofrio: WSL is not running a stock kernel, hell, I was pretty sure it wasn't even running a stock systemd, but looks like it might be now. Those are crucial details when asking for support
[16:37] <donofrio> ok well now you know the setup can we work to resolve the issue with the lock, I'm unsure why passwd would ever be locked
[16:37] <leftyfb> donofrio: again, support for unreleased versions of ubuntu belong in #ubuntu-next
[16:37] <donofrio> I'm joined to that channel
[16:38] <leftyfb> donofrio: it's very possible since it's in active development that broken changes got pushed today. You'll have to ask them
[16:38] <donofrio> and asked the same question there but with only 83 people it is nothing like this 1k channel
[16:38] <Dat_> anyone on 22.04 with virutalbox windows 11 vm where VB will just crash out of the blue for no reason?
[16:39] <leftyfb> Dat_: that is a Windows/VB issue, not Ubuntu
[16:40] <Dat_> The virtualbox application installed on Ubuntu is what crashes and windows doesn't show anything in the event viewer
[16:40] <Dat_> I think I'll just download the VB and the kernel
[16:40] <leftyfb> Dat_: oh, sorry, Ubuntu is the host and Windows is the guest?
[16:41] <Dat_> Correct
[16:41] <leftyfb> Dat_: maybe try running VB from a terminal to get more info
[16:42] <leftyfb> Dat_: you could also try asking in #virtualbox
[16:43] <Dat_> Hrmm verbose mode great idea maybe something will dump out when it crashes in a few days
[16:43] <Dat_> Thanks for the channel name looks like the one I had was spelled wrong
[16:45] <Clover81> Hello, I am having a problem and I cannot solve it a while ago.
[16:45] <Clover81> At the beginning of Ubuntu, this message "RTW_8821CE FAILED to Send H2C Command" appears to me, it is a problem with the wifi card driver, I have a laptop Dell. If anyone knows how to solve it would help me a lot
[16:46] <leftyfb> Clover81: does your wifi fail to work?
[16:47] <Clover81> leftyfb does not start, this error of the RWT_8821CE appears to me
[16:48] <leftyfb> Clover81: which release of ubuntu?
[16:48] <Clover81> leftyfb 23.10
[16:49] <oerheks> looks like this issue; https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215496
[16:49] -ubottu:#ubuntu- bugzilla.kernel.org bug 215496 in Drivers "dmesg flood: realtek wi-fi: rtw_8822ce firmware failed to leave lps state" [Normal, New]
[16:49] <oerheks> with a fix in comment #22 ?
[16:50] <oerheks> this happens when the machine is not on a charger.
[16:51] <Clover81> oerheks: Yes
[16:53] <Clover81> This line also seems to me "rtw_8822ce 0000: 04: 00.0: the h2c command could not be sent
[16:53] <Clover81> "
[16:57] <errcsool> Hey all, what would be the channel to discuss juju/charms?
[16:57] <oerheks> #juju here on #libera ?
[16:59] <errcsool> Ok, I'll check over there. I couldn't find that in the ubuntu/canonical channel lists
[17:01] <oerheks> indeed, it is not https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/ChannelList
[17:10] <errcsool> ty for double checking oerheks.I'll ask here and see if I have any luck... I'm just doing starting using juju, currently with multipass ubuntu 22.04 + microk8s on a macbook pro m3 (aarch64) host. When deploying the postgresql-k8s charm to my microk8s cluster via juju, I encounter an issue with pod's node selector. The issue appears to be that the juju charm is setup for amd64 arch and my vm is running aarch64 via
[17:10] <errcsool>  host-passthrough or something. Is there a configured postgresql-k8s charm that uses aarch64, should I reconfigure my vm to use amd64, or should I custom configure the charm to use aarch64?
[19:11] <gnuser> Hi
[21:37] <Guest23> hello
[21:38] <NeverEndingNewne> Yo baby whatsup
[21:38] <plastikman> dont ask to ask, just ask
[21:40] <Guest23> can everyone in the channel see my message? I am new here.
[21:41] <NeverEndingNewne> Yes. We've got someone on twitch that had some issues installing Ubuntu. They used the offline installer and got stuck with a very non-descript error while formatting their HDD.
[21:41] <Guest23> Have anyone here tried installing ubuntu v23?
[21:41] <enyc> Guest23: probably!
[21:41] <plastikman> what is v23?
[21:41] <plastikman> you mean 23.10?
[21:41] <enyc> Guest23: newbies make the mistake of expecting queck answeras and logging out, rother than leaving IRC open in background and allowing people to come/go/answer over the hours/days
[21:42] <Guest23> plastikman yes
[21:42] <plastikman> yep im sure many have.  what help do you require?
[21:43] <Guest23> enyc thanks for letting me know
[21:43] <saraP> I never thought of leaving irc logged in..
[21:43] <enyc> saraP: in quieter channels especially this is very iportant; some really do answer after a day, it just depends
[21:43] <enyc> saraP: SO often see some newbie close-out!  or not join enough channels to find things, etc
[21:44] <plastikman> i leave mine on a tmux session on a vps.  its alwaus there with just ssh and tmux -a.  anyway...
[21:44] <saraP> yes whenever I have gone to IRC  there's not many messages if any at all
[21:44] <Guest23> When install 23.10 using the installer, right the end of installation it pops up an error that something went wrong.
[21:44] <plastikman> what does the error say?
[21:45] <NeverEndingNewne> It was like "An error occurred" right? I think they were using the GUI installer.
[21:46] <Guest23> that is the problem it error just say that something went when wrong. This is for 23.10 but  also tried installing the legacy version need i get an error of can't create partition 2
[21:46] <enyc> saraP: there are so many channels in reality;  https://netsplit.de/channels/ -- it depends upon the channel/topic
[21:46] <plastikman> without the details of that error its not like we can just figure it out.
[21:49] <Guest23> okay thank I will post them here when I get a chance!
[21:51] <jluc> How nice is the coming 24.04 ?
[22:04] <ravage> !next | jluc
[22:10] <sybariten> Hey, i've asked this before but honesly forgot. Between apt and snap, anyone i should prefer? I want to install weechat on a new machine. I'm already running it on an older machine.
[22:11] <ravage> Compare the versions. If the snap version offers something you need use it. If not keep the one in the repositories
[22:12] <sybariten> And how do i know beforehand which one i will get from both apt and snap, respectively?
[22:12] <sarnold> snap info weechat ; apt-cache show weechat
[22:13] <sybariten> thanks guys
[22:25] <sybariten> error: no snap found for "weechat"
[22:25] <sybariten> So not evertthing is in the "snap system", i presume?
[22:42] <Ximo> jluc: no comment
[22:52] <biodigital> Hi, I'd like some advice. my goal is to implement raid5 to 4 hds. thinking of keeping my system completely free. Which controller raid with good cost benefit could I buy new old u?
[22:55] <jluc> thanks :-)
[23:02] <ravage> biodigital: Software RAID or #hardware
[23:23] <biodigital> ravage: I was thinking of hardware raid
[23:23] <ravage> option 2 it is then
[23:24] <biodigital> ravage: yes
[23:25] <biodigital> but I was convinced that the software is better option
[23:26] <ravage> if it is a pure data storage check out zfs for it
[23:26] <biodigital> ravage: the idea was to take the weight of a possible reconstruction.
[23:26] <biodigital> ravage: ok

[15:32] <yva1> I'm trying to make a link to Rhythmbox from a page of the Ubuntu Studio Documentation. But the Rhythmbox page is written just like that. The wikiword should be RhythmBox, otherwise it is impossible to link to. What to do about that?
[16:00] <mpt> yva1, [:Rhythmbox] I think
[16:01] <mpt> or [:Rhythmbox:]

[20:03] <astabeno> I am trying to decide what program to use for Doc Book documentation, any suggestions
[20:28] <mpt> astabeno, have you tried Bluefish?
[20:29] <astabeno> Yeah, I have used bluefish and gedit
[20:30] <astabeno> Neither are bad, I was just curious what others have used
[20:31] <jjesse> nano and kate
[20:31] <jjesse> for editing
[20:33] <astabeno> Thnaks for the suggestions
[20:34] <nixternal> I heard that there is a Gnome IDE that is pretty good too, ajuda or something funny like that
[20:37] <seisen> ajunta I believe is KDE based
