[00:00] <jtaylor> was your browser audited?
[00:00] <hggdh> TheLordOfTime: s/he is banned
[00:01] <hggdh> TheLordOfTime: you can always call !ops | <nick>
[00:01] <TheLordOfTime> jtaylor, can't tell, i can't boot in even if it was audited.
[00:01] <TheLordOfTime> hggdh, the bot in here actively responds to the ops trigger?
[00:01] <TheLordOfTime> or does it call to -irc?
[00:02] <hggdh> TheLordOfTime: ah, I am not sure. But if it routes to -irc, you would get it also, anyways
[00:02] <hggdh> TheLordOfTime: also, you are a member (just made sure), so you can gain ops and do it here, if needed
[00:03] <TheLordOfTime> nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnno
[00:03] <TheLordOfTime> hggdh, check the chanserv ACL again
[00:03] <hggdh> oops
[00:03] <hggdh> indeed, the access list does not list Ubuntu members
[00:03] <hggdh> perhaps because this is a core channel?

[00:04] <TheLordOfTime> perhaps, which is why i mentioned bdmurray, he'd know.  if not him, then IRCC would
[00:05] <hggdh> and I do not know what ubot2` is doing with the ops
[00:05] <TheLordOfTime> we could test... might want to notify -ops and -irc about the test, though if you decide to.
[00:06] <hggdh> I do not like to, the ops may directly call some people
[00:06] <TheLordOfTime> mmm true
[00:06]  * TheLordOfTime shrugs
[00:06] <TheLordOfTime> well, time to wipe 11.10 from existence on this here system.
[00:06] <hggdh> (and I already did that once, after incorrectly changing the text of the factoid...)
[00:09] <hggdh> TheLordOfTime: anyway, perhaps it is time to review the ACL, I have not seen hobsee for quite a long time
[00:09] <hggdh> (for example)
[00:09] <TheLordOfTime> mmm
[00:10] <TheLordOfTime> perhaps
[00:11] <jtaylor> TheLordOfTime: you used firefox I guess?
[00:11] <TheLordOfTime> jtaylor, i use multiple browsers.
[00:11] <TheLordOfTime> firefox, chromium on ubuntu
[00:11] <jtaylor> when you clicked on the link I mean
[00:11] <TheLordOfTime> i don't browse the web from RHEL if I can avoid it.
[00:11] <TheLordOfTime> and on windows i use opera, ffox, chrome.
[00:11] <TheLordOfTime> jtaylor, actually, yes, it was ffox
[00:11] <TheLordOfTime> but i can't even boot the partition
[00:11] <TheLordOfTime> it freezes in boot
[00:11] <TheLordOfTime> not sure if its related or not
[00:11] <jtaylor> maybe it tried to install a rootkit
[00:12] <TheLordOfTime> but the system needs to be erasified anyways
[00:12] <jtaylor> which failed and now its screwed :)
[00:12] <TheLordOfTime> well, i need to erase 11.10 anyways
[00:12] <jtaylor> make sure to wipe your partition table
[00:12]  * TheLordOfTime NEVER upgrades-in-place
[00:12] <TheLordOfTime> jtaylor, i always wipe my partition table!
[00:12] <TheLordOfTime> :P
[00:12] <TheLordOfTime> jtaylor, it's even easier when I erase the partition table before running the installer :P
[00:12]  * TheLordOfTime manually does the partitions anyways
[00:12] <hggdh> and safer
[00:13] <TheLordOfTime> ... i just opened a package that was addressed to me, and it contains approximately 5 kg of .999 pure silver bars.
[00:14] <TheLordOfTime> ... i guess someone somewhere likes me... *shrugs*
[00:14] <hggdh> ah, so it is not mine, I wanted .99999
[00:14] <TheLordOfTime> :P
[00:17] <TheLordOfTime> but in all seriousness, that's almost $4600 of silver here...
[00:17] <TheLordOfTime> there's a purchase order here but i don't recognize who purchased it, but it is addressed to me
[00:17]  * TheLordOfTime shrugs
[00:17] <hggdh> heh. I can help you spend it
[00:17] <TheLordOfTime> i think i can do that myself, thanks.
[00:17] <TheLordOfTime> :P
[00:18] <TheLordOfTime> I AM GOING TO TURN THE SILVER INTO CASH!
[00:18] <TheLordOfTime> THEN I AM GOING TURN HALF OF THE CASH INTO GOLD
[00:18] <hggdh> :-)
[00:18] <TheLordOfTime> AND THE REST OF THE CASH IS MINE! :P
[00:19] <hggdh> TheLordOfTime: but, back to ops -- I try to keep tabs on this channel during the day; but I think we need more spread
[00:20] <TheLordOfTime> indeed.
[00:36] <penguin42> TheLordOfTime: Hmm mail from Brian saying a bug is actually open for whatever the guy was linking to on the one to the list
[00:36] <TheLordOfTime> or rather a patch has already landed
[00:36] <penguin42> nod
[00:36]  * TheLordOfTime does read his mail you know :P
[00:37] <jtaylor> link to bug?
[00:40] <TheLordOfTime> jtaylor, there wasn't one.
[00:40] <TheLordOfTime> (it was about a bugsquad emailed item)
[00:41] <TheLordOfTime> (about a possible exploit on brainstorm.u.c)
[00:54] <hggdh> mdeslaur: net splits?
[00:55] <mdeslaur> hggdh: nah, I've rebooted a couple of times
[00:55] <hggdh> heh

[17:02] <SKULL212> hi friends
[17:03] <SKULL212> I am asleep

[17:06] <niko> hi
[17:06] <SKULL212> berry
[17:06] <SKULL212> hi niko whats up
[17:06] <SKULL212> all are very silent, whats the matter
[17:08] <Myrtti> this isn't a chat channel. So if there isn't anything relating to Ubuntu IRC channels, it usually is quiet.
[17:08] <niko> the purpose of this channel is to handle issues in #ubuntu* namespace, ie: it's not a chat room
[17:09] <SKULL466> back
[17:10] <SKULL466> hi
[17:10] <SKULL466> niko, where you from
[17:11] <SKULL466> hi
[17:11] <SKULL466> hi
[17:11] <SKULL466> niko do ya talk less
[17:12] <SKULL466> pricey my friend hows things
[17:13] <SKULL466> welcome daviey
[17:14] <Myrtti> this isn't a chat channel. So if there isn't anything relating to Ubuntu IRC channels, it usually is quiet. So did you have something actually on topic to say or ask?
[17:14] <Myrtti> there are other places for social chatter.
[17:14] <SKULL466> precsely yes Myrtti ma'am
[17:15] <SKULL466> if it is not a chat channel what ppl do here, I'm confused ma'am
[17:15] <holstein> SKULL466: check the /topic of all the ubuntu channels.. there are some for chat
[17:15] <Myrtti> it's for Ubuntu IRC issues.
[17:16] <SKULL466> I'm findng very hard to ignore this nice channel with great ppl inside ma'am
[17:16] <ninnnu_> If you want to chat, try #ubuntu-offtopic
[17:17] <IdleOne> :/
[17:17] <SKULL466> ninnnu, I'm bit outta track what you all chat here, give me some hint so I can behave and act like you all
[17:18] <Myrtti> we don't chat here.
[17:18] <Myrtti> that's what we've been saying for days.
[17:18] <Myrtti> this isn't for social chat
[17:18] <Myrtti> not all irc channels are for it
[17:18] <SKULL466> lol
[17:18] <SKULL466> then ma'am Myrtti what you all chat here
[17:18] <Myrtti> we discuss Ubuntu IRC issues. Channel ops issues, international channel ops issues, irc cloaks.
[17:18] <Myrtti> if you don't have anything to discuss on those lines, then you're better off elsewhere.
[17:19] <SKULL466> Thank you for the explanations, ma'am Myrtti
[17:19] <Myrtti> can you please stop calling people ma'am
[17:19] <Myrtti> and sir and whatever
[17:19] <SKULL466> what's wrong calling ma'am, I don't see it as a issue
[17:20] <Myrtti> I'm Myrtti. I'm not ma'am, I'm not sir, I'm just me.
[17:20] <Myrtti> I don't need ma'aming.
[17:21] <holstein> SKULL466: its a matter of what this channel is intended for.. which is in the /topic ...its for official use
[17:21] <SKULL466> well said Myrtti, I guess, I needed to vent, I feel alone, lost, I feel lonely, distracted, whenever I'm in here I am getting panic attacks
[17:21] <holstein> SKULL466: if you want to "talk".. about *anything* /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[17:21] <Myrtti> then don't come.
[17:22] <SKULL466> official use?? what you mean holestein
[17:22] <Myrtti> ...
[17:22] <SKULL466> but holestein, I like chatting here because all are nice
[17:22] <Myrtti> if you only knew
[17:22] <holstein> SKULL466: its not a place for chatting
[17:22] <SKULL466> >>>Myrtti
[17:23] <holstein> SKULL466: you can type "h" or "hol" and hit the "tab" key to autocomplete my nick
[17:23] <SKULL466> knew what Myrtti
[17:23] <Myrtti> how nice we are.
[17:23] <Myrtti> anyway
[17:23] <Myrtti> let me try to explain it really slow
[17:24] <SKULL466> you are very nice and a bit mystery to me
[17:24] <Myrtti> SKULL466: this is IRC. IRC has lots of different networks. Freenode is one of the networks. Networks are several servers connected to each other.
[17:24] <Myrtti> the network has different channels, freenode usually has channels mostly for open source software projects, like Ubuntu.
[17:25] <SKULL466> true Myrtti, millions are computers are connected with each other
[17:25] <Myrtti> Ubuntu has a lot of IRC channels in freenode, and lots of ops. Those ops need to talk to each other.
[17:25] <SKULL466> of computers*
[17:25] <Myrtti> and this channel is for that discussion.
[17:27] <SKULL466> yeah Myrtti, I have no idea how to be attractive to ppl here, so I have no idea of how to be a part of you all
[17:27] <Myrtti> are you an op on a Ubuntu IRC channel?
[17:27] <SKULL466> I'm just a RANDOM guy
[17:27] <Myrtti> are you an individual interested in volunteering on the Ubuntu IRC channels?
[17:27] <Myrtti> how did you even find this channel?
[17:28] <SKULL466> yeah sure
[17:28] <SKULL466> lol
[17:29] <SKULL466> by chance
[17:30] <Myrtti> I think I'm wasting my time with you. You come here poking people to talk to you, effectively wasting their time. I've now wasted 20 minutes on trying to spell it out to you that there are other channels you can chat in with people who actually might be interested.
[17:30] <SKULL466> nobody loves, nobody enjoys my company
[17:30] <holstein> SKULL466: #ubuntu-offtopic is where to go to do what you are doing.. there are other channels as well. but not this one
[17:34] <SKULL466> taking easy steps first is more like fasting to the next level, you said you've wasted your 20 min, Just felt overwhelmed, wish things were different
[17:34] <Myrtti> if you'd join a channel more suitable in the first place, things would be so different.
[17:34] <holstein> SKULL466: what irc client are you on? do you know how to join other channels?
[17:35] <SKULL466> I wish I were gone, I know my feelings don't matter, how I feel doesn't matter, I wish I was dead right now, I hurt so much??
[17:36] <holstein> SKULL466: do you understand how to /join another channel? the channel that has been suggested? #ubuntu-offopic ?
[17:37] <SKULL466> yes holes I do understand but inside offtopic channel ppl don't talk I've been through
[17:37] <TheLordOfTime> if you just want to chat, try #defocus ?
[17:38] <SKULL466> what if I like chattin here and you know my thought process are clear
[17:39] <TheLordOfTime> this channel isn't the place for idle chat
[17:39] <SKULL466> processes*
[17:40] <SKULL466> hides behind Myrtti
[17:41] <SKULL466> it's been a long time
[17:42] <SKULL466> thelordoftime
[17:43] <SKULL466> sull sets mode +- on sull
[17:43] <TheLordOfTime> this channel isn't the place for idle chat, and you've had three people tell you the same thing
[17:43] <SKULL466> skull*
[17:44] <TheLordOfTime> #ubuntu-offtopic, #defocus, or other channels are better suited for idle chat
[17:44] <TheLordOfTime> but not this channel.
[17:44] <holstein> SKULL466: you are not in #ubuntu-offtopic .. do you understand how to join that channel?
[17:45] <SKULL466> I truly respect your concern, TheLordofTime
[17:45] <Myrtti> /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[17:45] <TheLordOfTime> holstein:  i think he does, <SKULL466> yes holes I do understand but inside offtopic channel ppl don't talk I've been through  suggests that
[17:45] <Myrtti> he's not there now
[17:45] <holstein> SKULL466: then, try and respect the channel guidelines, please, and do not ping folks
[17:46] <SKULL466> I am here waiting, seeking
[17:46] <SKULL466> lol
[17:46] <Myrtti> we're not your entertainment.
[17:46] <holstein> SKULL466: please join #ubuntu-offtopic .. i have joined there and will try and help you get started
[17:49] <Myrtti> admittedly we're not psychologists either
[20:43] <Unit193> Myrtti: Can you OP sandyd in #ubuntuforums?  It was hit a little by a troll.
[20:46] <TheLordOfTime> Unit193:  not going to happen, they just /quit
[23:06] <Unit193> Ah, is bshellz actually supposed to be banned from core channels, as per https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/ShellPolicy ?
[23:09] <JoseeAntonioR> Unit193: looks like
[23:10] <Unit193> That's why I'm asking, because it looks like it is.  Noticed someone with that host join.
[23:11] <JoseeAntonioR> Unit193: it was added to the list by topyli in 2011-01-23, at 13:34:41 UTC
[23:11] <JoseeAntonioR> maybe the bantracker can give some info on that
[23:14] <Unit193> Ah, didn't think of that one, but didn't have a lot.  Does confirm that there are bans in #ubuntu and #k.


[01:01] <smoser> jwstasiak is gone now, but if he comes back... in natty's version of cloud-init output is configurable via cloud-config.  see 'output' section at http://bazaar.launchpad.net/%7Ecloud-init-dev/cloud-init/trunk/annotate/head%3A/doc/examples/cloud-config.txt
[01:01] <smoser> kim0, ^^ if you're ever asked again
[01:02] <smoser> regarding debconf, look for debconf_selections in above url


[00:00] <EriC^^_> after that linux line hit enter and type 'initrd (loop)/casper/initrazds'  but i think that last part should be /casper/initramfs  try to use tab completion instead to fill it out after initra
[00:01] <EriC^^_> finally type 'boot' and it should boot
[00:02] <EriC^^_> WickedDekciw i think you also need to type "loopback loop /multiboot/ubuntu-20.04.3-desktop-amd64/" too, before the initrd one
[00:05] <WickedDekciw> Is there a spelling mistake on amd64.1so
[00:05] <WickedDekciw> !?
[00:05] <EriC^^_> spotted a few mistakes yeah
[00:05] <EriC^^_> yeah i was just about to say that
[00:05] <EriC^^_> there's an extra space in
[00:06] <EriC^^_>  iso-scan/filename=/multiboot/ubuntu-20.04.3-desktop-amd64/ubuntu-20.04.3-desktop-amd64.iso
[00:07] <EriC^^_> remove also the space between multiboot/ubuntu -20.04...
[00:08] <WickedDekciw> Error file blabla.iso not found
[00:08] <WickedDekciw> I must have typed something wrong I got no idea
[00:09] <EriC^^_> there was an extra space between ubuntu 20.04.3, did you remove it ?
[00:11] <WickedDekciw> Yeah I removed it but I think it's a dash
[00:12] <WickedDekciw> Wait a second could I just boot into Windows the literally just open it from there
[00:12] <WickedDekciw> Because like the folder would literally be visible on Windows or is what I'm doing right
[00:12] <WickedDekciw> 😂😂😂😂😂
[00:13] <WickedDekciw> I'm literally insane for doing it this way if it can work otherwise but then again if I knew what I was doing I would have just done it and I barely know my name
[00:13] <EriC^^_> nah you need to fsck or troubleshoot and stuff from ubuntu
[00:14] <EriC^^_> unless you have fsck on windows, in that case it might help i guess
[00:14] <EriC^^_> anyways give it another go, you're pretty much there, just need to try to boot it and have it fsck and see if it finds any errors and helps
[00:15] <EriC^^_> if you do "ls /multiboot/ubuntu-20.04.3-desktop-amd64/ubuntu-20.04.3-desktop-amd64.iso"  does it work or file not found?
[00:17] <WickedDekciw> I'll see
[00:18] <WickedDekciw> Invalid file name
[00:19] <WickedDekciw> Any chance I can do this from WSL?

[03:31] <eletious> Is there a way to configure a tty or an emulator to emit a sound whenever a character is written to the screen?  I've worded that badly, and it's reflecting in my search results :(
[03:34] <lotuspsychje> eletious: you want to hear an alert when someone intrudes your system?
[03:35] <eletious> I'm looking to get some auditory feedback as I type and as output is printed... It's a weird sensory thing, I think.  I noticed that a lot of platforms designed to keep up user engagement use auditory cues to do it - mostly video games, but also social media platforms like Snapchat and Facebook Messenger.  I'm wondering if I can leverage that sort of auditory attention hack for my own use.
[03:37] <carnophage2> ...
[03:37] <eletious> it's weird, I know
[03:37] <orange1> you can program it with sdl or maybe x libraries and pulse audio libraries but sdl without a window would be easier
[03:40] <carnophage2> eletious, have you considered a mechanical keyboard?
[03:40] <eletious> I actually use a mechanical keyboard
[03:40] <lotuspsychje> eletious: on gnome there's a noticiation system that gives you popups ontop, and individual programs act all different too, like hexchat can notify with highlight sounds
[03:40] <sarnold> eletious: https://snapcraft.io/bucklespring maybe?
[03:43] <eletious> bucklespring is close.  I could maybe fork it and replace the sounds, though I was looking for a way to tie it more closely with the TTY... this might be a good option.
[03:44] <eletious> I definitely don't have the motivation to learn SDL or build a terminal emulator, at the very least not in a short-term sense
[03:46] <sarnold> actually building a whole terminal emulator would be pretty difficult, those are non-trivial; modifying tmux or your current terminal would be a better starting point
[03:47] <sarnold> I haven't actually read any of the 'real' terminals but my instincts suggest tmux would be the 'easiest' code to work with and modify and build new things, etc
[03:47] <sarnold> but one of the gui terminals like alacritty or urxvt or gnome-terminal etc might be easier to hook up to a sound playing API
[03:48] <eletious> Yeah, trying to build a terminal emulator would be madness.
[03:49] <eletious> I'll start with bucklespring, since it seems like the best option short-term... modifying tmux or an existing gui terminal would be a more long-term project and definitely not an easy one.  Though maybe an insightful one.
[03:49] <eletious> Thanks for the help everyone!
[03:50] <TJ-> eletious: you might find powerline integrations with vim and tmux interesting in how to hook interactive events
[03:55] <TJ-> eletious: you could just install gnustep-gui-common then you can do "say "Hello and welcome to G N U Lin-ux!"
[03:58] <lotuspsychje> i actualy like the idea of a terminal sound, but i would be more interested in any movement on screen
[03:59] <eletious> That's a really good way of putting what I'm looking for, though initially I thought getting feedback in a TTY would be easier than setting it up for a whole OS
[03:59] <eletious> To be fair that's probably still true
[04:00] <eletious> TJ-: I don't know that the latter is necessarily what I'm going for, but it is pretty cool
[04:01] <TJ-> eletious: with some neat bash TRAPs it might be quite entertaining and that would be done via shell, not terminal
[04:01] <TJ-> eletious: I'm sure I've come across something with tmux that does give audible feedback though, in my capacity working with visually impaired
[04:14] <TJ-> eletious: looking deeper, it would make sense to use feedbackd as the back-end, which is designed for it
[04:15] <TJ-> !info feedbackd
[04:15] <eletious> :O
[04:15] <sarnold> wow
[04:17] <eletious> oh my god.
[04:18] <eletious> idk about terminal feedback, but this could be tied in with sxhkd bindings, or a WM that emits window open events
[04:22] <TJ-> eletious: following the links in the feedbackd github, about sound events and the naming, leads to what looks to be a specification from the ealy Pulseaudio days for naming of sound events, and in that there looks to be every kind of event you could want! http://0pointer.de/public/sound-naming-spec.html
[04:23] <TJ-> See Table 5 "Standard Input Feedback Sounds"
[04:23] <eletious> no freaking way
[04:24] <TJ-> Not clear right now if that is fully implemented by any existing tooling but as it is related to Lennart's works I'd bet it is
[04:34] <TJ-> !info gsound-tools
[04:36] <TJ-> eletious: "gsound-play -i "phone-incoming-call"
[04:37] <TJ-> eletious: looks like where there are not already the correctly named sound files in the system, you'd create and store them in the correct directories, then use the canberra sound events to trigger them
[04:49] <eletious> wow.  I can definitely put somethign together with this
[04:50] <eletious> something*
[04:53] <eletious> this and feedbackd look the most promising, with utilities I can call from shell scripts and APIs in case I fork something later.
[04:53] <eletious> TJ-: thank you so much

[07:48] <SteelRose> Hello all! I am having some issues with netplan when adding a second NIC. I created this https://pastebin.com/EFNyR4ka to describe the problem. Your help is appreciated! Thanks!
[07:56] <ducasse> SteelRose: i don't think i can help, but you might also want to try #netplan
[07:57] <SteelRose> ducasse: thanks for the advise
[08:04] <ducasse> other than that just hang and wait, it's quiet here a little while yet
[10:59] <shadowbird2468> anyidea what might be the cause for wifi dropping constantly after ~1min its been like this for few weeks. Its my fathers computer and he uses mobil hotspot. usb tendering works fine
[11:01] <lotuspsychje> shadowbird2468: share your wifi chipset, ubuntu kernel version and dmesg log so the volunteers can take a closer look for you tnx
[11:04] <root____> ty! I will do that soon as I'm able ssh in again
[11:04] <root____> able to*
[11:15] <OnceMe> hello, new volume appeared out of no where on my linux ubuntu pc, its 44 MB, but Im afraid to open it, how can I inspect it first, directory path etc?
[11:15] <tomreyn> OnceMe: lsblk
[11:16] <OnceMe> hmm I think its snap
[11:16] <OnceMe> how do I found this specific volume?
[11:17] <tomreyn> mount | grep snap    would list mounted snaps
[11:17] <ogra> snaps live in /var/lib/snapd/snaps ...
[11:17] <ogra> and get mounted in /snap
[11:17] <OnceMe> tomreyn: there's ton of them
[11:18] <ogra> (and are normally hidden in all file managers ... what desktop do you use ?)
[11:18] <ogra> smells like a bug with the file manager
[11:19] <OnceMe> this loop10                    7:10   0  42,2M  1 loop  /snap/snapd/14066 and
[11:19] <OnceMe> let me restart pc, it might go away
[11:20] <OnceMe> I use unity
[11:20] <OnceMe> but ubuntu 16.04
[11:20] <ogra> you should report it to the unity devs then
[11:20] <tomreyn> !16.04
[11:20] <OnceMe> I know
[11:20] <ogra> not sure what filemanager unity uses nowadays
[11:20] <ogra> might be nemo
[11:20] <OnceMe> nautilus
[11:20] <ogra> oh, i missed the 16.04 above
[11:20] <ogra> sorry
[11:20] <tomreyn> i'm afraid we can't support 16.04 anymore
[11:21] <ogra> yeah, that might not have all the patches
[11:21] <OnceMe> wanted to upgrade on 20.04 with clean instann
[11:21] <OnceMe> install*, but Im worried about encrypt /home missing during installation
[11:21] <ogra> right ... 16.04 -> paid support ...
[11:23] <OnceMe> so how to encrypt /home if I upgrade to 20.04 ?
[11:27] <oerheks> OnceMe, it should work fine, upgrading encrypted installation. do not worry about your data, you have a backup, right?
[11:27] <OnceMe> I wont upgrade, I will do fresh OS reinstall
[11:28] <oerheks> oh oke, that will be smooth
[11:28] <oerheks> you will get HWE automaticly
[11:29] <OnceMe> whats HWE?
[11:30] <OnceMe> I have win 10 in dual atm
[11:30] <oerheks> !hwe
[11:30] <OnceMe> but what about encryption?
[11:30] <oerheks> encryption is offered, during install
[11:30] <oerheks> LVM + luks
[11:32] <OnceMe> https://youtu.be/-iSAyiicyQY?t=496
[11:32] <OnceMe> I dont see it
[11:35] <oerheks> choose 'advanced'  https://askubuntu.com/questions/1291268/full-disk-encryption-with-20-04
[11:35] <oerheks> it is really simple
[11:35] <orange1> ``
[11:36] <OnceMe> it is
[11:36] <OnceMe> but its for full disk encryption, and I have win10 here
[11:37] <oerheks> oh, windows 10 ..
[11:37] <oerheks> yes, then you cannot use lvm, i guess
[11:39] <OnceMe> but I have two disks :P win10 is on one ssd and linux on another one :D
[11:39] <OnceMe> I guess I could use full disk encryption
[11:40] <oerheks> yes, life without problems is boring
[11:44] <OnceMe> or I could wait for 22.04 xd
[12:00] <tomreyn> OnceMe: you should backup, and reinstall. but the ubuntu installer will not let you install alongside windows AND use full disk encryption. home directory encryption with ecryptfs (which you seem to have had) is no longer supported by the installer.
[12:00] <tomreyn> waiting for 22.04 will most likely not help you there.
[12:24] <jkk> ubuntu can be installed on a chromebook?
[12:26] <oerheks> jkk, not natively, only with a hack AFAIK
[12:27] <jkk> what kind of a hack?
[12:29] <oerheks> 'crouton' https://ubuntu.com/tutorials/install-ubuntu-on-chromebook#1-overview
[12:30] <oerheks> so, i would keep chrome OS on it, not worth the trouble, most of them are just 2 gb memory
[12:30] <jkk> 4 gb now
[12:30] <jkk> maybe there is a way to remove chrome os
[12:30] <oerheks> anyway, that is our official documentation, have fun with it
[12:31] <jkk> ty
[12:35] <OnceMe> tomreyn: why no full disk encryption if I have separate disk? i mean I have dual windows, but win is on another disk
[13:24] <BluesKaj> Hi folks
[13:36] <mago> Hi, what irc clients do you recommend for ubuntu 20.04 ?
[13:37] <mago> Like da client, which one is best?
[13:37] <mago> Is there none included in the standard installation?
[13:37] <oerheks> mago,  there is no simgle best, check out supported SASL clients https://libera.chat/guides/sasl
[13:38] <mago> Im considering weechat, but somewhere I read that empathy was installed by default? Is that true?
[13:39] <oerheks> !info empathy
[13:40] <oerheks> optional, so no.
[13:41] <mago> empathy vs weechat?
[13:41] <mago> weechat vs irssi?
[13:41] <ioria> mago, comparison is the thief of joy
[13:41] <mago> Well I always compare software before installing..
[13:42] <mago> I think im going to go with weechat
[13:42] <mago> Lets reformulate the question..
[13:43] <mago> What irc clients are you using right now to connect to libera?
[13:43] <oerheks> no polling please, i gave you a list with supported ones, try and use the one you like best
[13:44] <oerheks> you would get 1042 opinions
[13:45] <mago> Is polling forbidden?
[13:45] <KBar> mago this channel is for Ubuntu Support.
[13:45] <mago> Yes, and the question is what is the best irc client for Ubuntu?
[13:46] <KBar> feel free to discuss stuff like this in #ubuntu-offtopic
[13:46] <KBar> Best is subjective, as oerheks mentioned.
[13:47] <mago> Well Ubuntu distro decides what's best when it installs software by default, like thunderbird for instance..
[13:47] <KBar> default != best
[13:47] <KBar> You're confusing the two concepts.
[13:48] <mago> Most compatible, better supported..
[13:48] <KBar> Join #ubuntu-offtopic for that. Thanks.
[13:48] <mago> I have
[13:48] <mago> Though Im not sure you get to make the rules, regarding polling for example, havent found the no polling rule.
[13:49] <ravage> the rule is: support questions regarding supported Ubuntu versions only
[13:49] <ravage> that excludes everything else
[13:50] <oerheks> I just told you, you would get tons of different answers. basicly there are 2 types of clients, GUI and TTY based
[13:50] <Lumpio-> A question of opinion is still a question though
[13:52] <mago> I'm usint Ubuntu 20.04, been using Ubuntu for the last decade at least, and want to know what IRC client is most recommended and better supported?
[13:54] <BluesKaj> hexchat is popular if you want a gui type client
[13:55] <oerheks> mago,  keep poling in #linux
[13:55] <oerheks> lolz
[13:55] <BluesKaj> heh
[13:55] <mago> Yea, i end in #linux most of the time cuz to be honest my questions barely ever get answered in this channel.
[13:55] <mago> Technical or not.
[13:56] <EugenMayer> Hello. Trying to bootstrap a focal instance (current stable release) with cloud-init on openstack. While debian works as expected and picks up the DHCP pushed DNS, ubuntu does only show them in resolvectl status, but ping/dig does not work. (i use a private DNS server for looking up private domains)
[13:56] <EugenMayer> Are there any issues regarding that with netplan?
[13:57] <EugenMayer> https://gist.github.com/EugenMayer/08aef05b84b5f6e66bfb0ebead1c9a22
[13:58] <TJ-> EugenMayer: does ping to IP addresses work?
[14:00] <EugenMayer> TJ- ok i just stubled uppon a CNAME typo in the DNS - thus actually it does work for a default 20.04 installation but seems to be broken when one deployes RKE2 on it
[14:01] <EugenMayer> on the RKE2 box (20.04 based entirely) i see https://gist.github.com/EugenMayer/ffb24cebea603fb3fc79f141d1551281
[14:03] <TJ-> EugenMayer: what are you expecting? that looks sane to me
[14:03] <EugenMayer> why is <IP_ADDRESS> the current one, not <IP_ADDRESS>?
[14:05] <TJ-> EugenMayer: well, you've snipped all the important info from that resolvectl report, but presumably both nameservers have equal weighting and are set to global scope, so they round-robin and <IP_ADDRESS> was added first, and hasn't failed to resolve a query so far (if it did, resolved would try the next nameserver)
[14:06] <EugenMayer> TJ- what would you need to be sure? My DHCP does has weighting, it does work for vanilla focal/debian and sorts. Seems to get confused when RKE is deployed (why would the weighting be removed?)
[14:07] <TJ-> EugenMayer: resolved has the concept of routed DNS (nameservers valid only on specific links). So whatever is informing resolved of those nameservers is presumably not setting scope of the nameserver correctly
[14:09] <EugenMayer> TJ- since it is openstack and the interface is ens3 defined in openstack, it seems to be scoped: https://gist.github.com/EugenMayer/64c4c5da39a1d8f58b9a763cced4a620
[14:11] <TJ-> EugenMayer: see "man systemd-resolved" it explains it in depth - see the parts especially about DefaultRoute= and "~."
[14:11] <EugenMayer> i will, thanks
[14:12] <TJ-> EugenMayer: resolvectl should show the routing next to each link, and at least 1 should have "~."
[14:14] <EugenMayer> TJ- i read that all non-scoped are routed via the ~. rule - but in my case they should be all unscoped and all queries should go to <IP_ADDRESS>. In both cases ens3 hass the default route flag, but i do not understand how this selects the DNS server
[14:15] <TJ-> EugenMayer: what tool is confuring the network - is it systemd-networkd?
[14:16] <EugenMayer> cloud-init via openstack
[14:16] <TJ-> too manly layers of indirection!
[14:16] <EugenMayer> i'am not sure which layer is used here, not trivial to find out
[14:16] <EugenMayer> yes - for sure.
[14:16] <TJ-> what's actually managing the network on the host!?
[14:16] <EugenMayer> cloud-init - via DHCP in the end
[14:16] <TJ-> EugenMayer: "systemctl status systemd-networkd"
[14:17] <TJ-> EugenMayer: is that active?
[14:17] <EugenMayer> yes
[14:17] <TJ-> right, I'm guessing that is configured at runtime by netplan, from cloud-init! So now check the config in /etc/netplan/
[14:17] <TJ-> probably you'll have a 50-cloud-init.conf
[14:17] <TJ-> Check that, does it declare those 2 nameservers?
[14:18] <EugenMayer> https://gist.github.com/EugenMayer/3427d16ddb3b8da15cee3d8928e2a614
[14:18] <EugenMayer> no it uses DHCP, as mentioned. And that DHCP is pushing 10.... first, then <IP_ADDRESS>
[14:23] <TJ-> EugenMayer: as far as I recall, last received nameserver will be 1st in the list, barring any other config. Since it is coming via DHCPv4 there's not a lot you can do to influence that. What is <IP_ADDRESS> supposed to do? Is it only for private LAN names?
[14:23] <TJ-> EugenMayer: also, is that on the bare-metal host or in a container?
[14:24] <EugenMayer> it is an dnsdist in front of an resursor/auth. dns server for private dns resolution
[14:24] <EugenMayer> TJ- the box is a VM, but not bare metal
[14:24] <EugenMayer> i just spawned a new focal box in the very same subnet
[14:25] <EugenMayer> and it's configuration turned out to be correct https://gist.github.com/EugenMayer/19038e4f1851af207513edafbe99ff1b
[14:25] <EugenMayer> so whatever does this DNS reconfiguration, must have been installed by RKE2.
[14:27] <TJ-> EugenMayer: I think you're missing the point - the order isn't fixed, it's round-robin for equal nameservers. So even though you're sometimes seeing <IP_ADDRESS> first, it isn't guaranteed to remain that way. A few millseconds of latency on the network when a query is in flight and resolved will rotate to the other nameserver. Same on the host where <IP_ADDRESS> is first
[14:27] <TJ-> EugenMayer: you should not be handing out 2 nameservesr via the same DHCP lease if those nameservers are not equal
[14:27] <EugenMayer> since when is DNS round robbing - is this systemd-resolv related?
[14:28] <TJ-> EugenMayer: you're telling resolved there are 2 nameservers it can use. You're not telling it one is specific to the LAN. So resolved will round-robin those. It's standard primary/secondary nameserver config
[14:29] <mago> Im using weechat now..
[14:29] <mago> Im using weechat now..
[14:29] <EugenMayer> usually, what goes in /e/resolve.conf was not rr, it was 'first, if not accissible, then second' - this changed?
[14:30] <EugenMayer> i understand what scoped TJ- i'am just suprised about RR here to be usual, that is not what iam used to
[14:31] <TJ-> EugenMayer:  well, you need to determine why with RKE2 the order seems to be changed
[14:31] <TJ-> EugenMayer: you seem to have evidence that without RKE2 the order is preserved
[14:32] <EugenMayer> TJ- thanks - i will investigate
[14:33] <TJ-> EugenMayer: might be worth ruling out a DHCP server/proxy issue by manually grabbing a lease with 'dhclient' -- "sudo dhclient -v -d -4 <interface>" and checking the nameserver order provided, on the RKE2 and on the non-RKE2
[14:34] <TJ-> If it's the same, then you need to compare the generated networkd configuration in case there is a subtle difference. As its using netplan those are runtime so you'll find them under /run/systemd/network/*.network
[14:34] <EugenMayer> thanks
[14:36] <TJ-> also might be worth checking which systemd-resolved stub is in use on both: "ls -l /etc/resolv.conf" --- will be /run/systemd/resolve/stub-resolv.conf or /run/systemd/resolve/resolv.conf  - slightly different behaviours. The former is preferred
[14:36] <TJ-> (it's a symlink or should be)
[14:37] <EugenMayer>  /etc/resolv.conf -> ../run/systemd/resolve/stub-resolv.conf
[14:37] <EugenMayer> https://gist.github.com/EugenMayer/378c7a678ab35d910b7343e98f0a4c8f
[14:57] <TJ-> EugenMayer: are they the same for RKE2 and non ?
[15:02] <vinzzz>  Hi there
[15:02] <vinzzz> Sorry to disturb here, I don't know if it's really the place to ask this question :  I use an ubuntu server and sendmail (to send mail for our customers) but I've got lot of problem with some domain recipient (like outlook.fr/.com) the mail are not sent for security reason
[15:02] <vinzzz> I look and try to follow some tutorial about opendkim and generate priv and pub key but it doesn't work
[15:02] <vinzzz> Is anybody can help me about this topic because I'm not bad in linux use but not really good in this kind of sysadmin topic .. ?
[15:03] <mjt> vinzzz: running a mail server is hard and I suggest you use a managed service unless you really know what you're doing
[15:03] <mjt> getting a good IP reputation is even harder...
[15:04] <mjt> Here's something I found through Google: https://gist.github.com/artmouse/632b7ea16af967a78d5b
[15:04] <mjt> You will want SPF and DKIM at bare minimum.
[15:05] <GNUtoo> Hi, is it the right channel for questions on hkps://keyserver.ubuntu.com? Is it possible to upload keys to hkps://keyserver.ubuntu.com if you don't have the associated private key of the main SC key?
[15:05] <mjt> you just need a public key to upload to a keyserver
[15:06] <mjt> no proof of private key ownership is required
[15:06] <vinzzz> mjt: Yes thanks for your reply. I'm good in linux command line and administration in generally, but on this part it's a little bit new for me. I've already check and configure the SPF and DKIM but it doesn't works
[15:07] <vinzzz> The server is OVH
[15:07] <mjt> yeah got my doubts about their IP reputation
[15:07] <vinzzz> Yes I already put the public key to the server in the DNS zone as indicated in there tuto
[15:08] <GNUtoo> thanks
[15:08] <vinzzz> Hum, OVH is a big french provider compagny used by many company in France.. Lots of them use send mail and work perfectly
[15:09] <mjt> vinzzz: for outlook.com/office 365 issues, you could try registering here: https://sendersupport.olc.protection.outlook.com/snds/index.aspx
[15:10] <vinzzz> But a question I asked to me is : do I put the domaine name that I choose for the DNS like http to access to my website or do I need to use @vps-xxxxxxxx.vps.ovh.net instead ?
[15:11] <mjt> all email should be going through your own domain name now vps.ovh.net
[15:11] <mjt> not**
[15:13] <vinzzz> mjt: ok thanks for this answer it was one of questions
[15:13] <mjt> rdns for the mx IP address should be your own domain name too
[15:13] <mjt> not vps.ovh.net etc
[15:15] <vinzzz> Ok it's what I done
[15:15] <scanno> You can also use one of the mail checker sites what might go wrong after you setup spf, dkim
[15:16] <mjt> mxtoolbox.com is good
[15:17] <mjt> https://mxtoolbox.com/emailhealth
[15:18] <mjt> tbh for anything serious i just use amazon ses, the price is dirt cheap and you never get deliverability problems
[15:19] <vinzzz> scanno: Yes I used one and seems to be ok
[15:20] <vinzzz> right now (since I've configure opendkim) I've always this log : Deferred: 451 4.3.2 Please try again later
[15:20] <vinzzz> when I send mail thru sendmail
[15:21] <mjt> have you checked if your ip address is on any block lists
[15:22] <mjt> https://multirbl.valli.org/lookup/
[15:28] <vinzzz> mjt: nop but I will :) thx
[15:31] <scanno> In my opinion, you could better use postfix as SMTP MTA
[15:32] <scanno> But that's another discussion 😬
[15:34] <vinzzz> scanno: yes it's the same answer another friend told me ;)
[15:37] <scanno> You can also try https://www.mail-tester.com/
[15:37] <superdad> Hello, we are trying to ipxe boot Ubuntu to install servers using Autoinstall. We are trying to set the ubuntu apt repo to a server that has an HTTPS with a custom Certificate authority. With Autoinstall, is it possible to load a custom Apt primary source, that is https?  And if so how do you load the CA truststore for that?
[15:45] <scanno> vinzzz: also make sure you have your reverse dns setup correctly
[15:46] <vinzzz> scanno: yes It was correctly setup with our domain name
[15:59] <dbungert> superdad: autoinstall supports mirrors and apt proxies easily enough, but a custom CA in time for apt is more tricky.

[16:55] <oerheks> this channel is not about pentesting/Dos sevices, Kolusion
[16:55] <Kolusion> Which channel is mate?
[16:55] <oerheks> no info about that.
[16:55] <Kolusion> Ok, well thanks anyway

[17:17] <natewrench123456> hi i was wondering if anyone else is having issues with installing Ubuntu as it fails to install grub and mark it as bootable on my laptop hdd
[17:17] <natewrench123456> my laptop says "no bootable device"
[17:27] <tomreyn> natewrench123456: this happens occasionally, but can have several reasons, so it's not possible to tell what the cause is, unless you can provide more details.
[17:29] <tomreyn> natewrench123456: which laptop model is it, and are you booting in uefi or (legacy) BIOS mode? how old is the HDD (could it be broken?) - you could examine its S.M.A.R.T. data while booted from the ubuntu installer / live system to get a better idea on this.
[17:33] <natewrench123456> tomreyn, its an acer booting in uefi, its 5 years old
[17:33] <natewrench123456> smart says the hdd is fine a 1 tb, tomreyn
[17:35] <tomreyn> natewrench123456: can you check in the bios whether "secure boot" is enabled? and whether it has a protection to prevent writing data to the efi system partition?
[17:36] <natewrench123456> tomreyn, hmm its unavailable without setting a password
[17:36] <tomreyn> natewrench123456: keep "secure boot" disabled, i was just wondering what its status is. i understand you're saying it's disabled, correct?
[17:37] <natewrench123456> yes
[17:38] <natewrench123456> wait its legacy not uefi tomreyn
[17:41] <tomreyn> natewrench123456: do you dual-/multi-boot there, or will ubuntu be the only operating system?
[17:42] <natewrench123456> tomreyn, i used to use win 10 but now it seems like arch or fedora based distros work i must've screwed up flashing the bios because certain distros like ubuntu will not initalize the hard drive
[17:43] <natewrench123456> tomreyn, i definitely screwed up the bios i can only use legacy booting
[17:43] <tomreyn> natewrench123456: if one linux distribution works as expected and another doesn't, it's often just a matter of kernel versions.
[17:43] <natewrench123456> if ubuntu uses UEFI for its install then thats why it wont work
[17:43] <tomreyn> natewrench123456: if this laptop is 5 years old, then it probably defaults to uefi booting. so you could just resetit to manufacturer defaults
[17:43] <natewrench123456> dammit
[17:44] <natewrench123456> i did
[17:44] <tomreyn> ubuntu can install in either uefi or legacy bios mode. but on a laptop that's 5 years old, i would suggest installing in uefi mode
[17:44] <natewrench123456> if i put the laptop in uefi mode then it cant find any bootable devices
[17:44] <tomreyn> what is "it"?
[17:45] <tomreyn> the laptop firmware (UEFI/BIOS) or the ubuntu installer?
[17:45] <natewrench123456> intel h20 bios
[17:45] <tomreyn> you mean insyde
[17:45] <natewrench123456> acer aspire e5 525
[17:45] <natewrench123456> yes
[17:46] <tomreyn> so you're saying that the bios will not detect the hdd when you set the bios to uefi boot mode?
[17:46] <natewrench123456> yes
[17:46] <tomreyn> meaning the disk does not show on the bios?
[17:47] <natewrench123456> yes
[17:47] <natewrench123456> i get a no bootable device found
[17:47] <tomreyn> that's not what i asked, though
[17:48] <natewrench123456> yes it is detected
[17:48] <tomreyn> does the disk show *in* the bios setup application in any of the two modes, uefi or legacy bios?
[17:48] <tomreyn> and if so, which one (and which one not)
[17:48] <natewrench123456> it showed in both versions legacy and uefi but could not boot in uefi mode
[17:49] <tomreyn> okay, that's a different statement than before. ;)
[17:49] <natewrench123456> tomreyn, im sorry i danced around the issue
[17:49] <tomreyn> so set the bios to uefi boot mode, then check whether there is an "intel RST" setting. and if so, disable that
[17:49] <tomreyn> no worries ;)
[17:51] <natewrench123456> tomreyn, thats weird, the HDD0 password is frozen not set
[17:55] <natewrench123456> ok that worked thanks tomreyn it looks like the hard drive was locked and wasnt initalizing
[17:55] <tomreyn> natewrench123456: what worked exactly?
[17:56] <tomreyn> natewrench123456: i.e. what did you (need to) do?
[17:56] <natewrench123456> i cleared the hdd password and disabled secure boot
[17:56] <tomreyn> okay cool, so that should enable you to install then
[17:56] <tomreyn> see also https://www.laptop-forums.com/threads/hdd-password-frozen-and-greyed-out.23827/ might help
[17:58] <tomreyn> there does not seem to be an "acer aspire e5 525" model, but there is Acer E5-572G-525V (Part Number: NX.MV2SI.006): https://www.acer.com/datasheets/2016/4876/E5-572G/NX.MV2SI.006.html
[17:58] <tomreyn> is this the model you are referring to?
[17:59] <natewrench123456> yes
[17:59] <tomreyn> there is also "Acer Aspire E5-574-525M"
[18:00] <natewrench123456> yep thats it
[18:01] <tomreyn> so... one of these ;)
[18:02] <tomreyn> you can use    journalctl -b | grep DMI:    later while running Ubuntu (installer or installed system) if you like. It's not so important now.
[18:04] <natewrench123456> ok
[18:04] <tomreyn> in case the installation should fail and the hdd password should remain "frozen", you may need to remove power supply, remove battery (it should be removeable on this model), and long-press (30s to 1 min) the power on button. this should do a cmos/nvram reset
[18:05] <natewrench123456> ok thanks
[19:28] <mort> https://p.mort.coffee/EhD.png my favorite part of ubuntu software is that every time I try to make it do something it breaks

[21:38] <supercool> Hello folks!
[21:38] <supercool> I need a help to check and format a flash disk
[21:38] <supercool> Could someone help me please
[21:41] <sarnold> supercool: perhaps you're looking for the 'badblocks' tool for the 'check' part
[21:46] <supercool> sarnold: I just figured the Disk tool
[21:46] <supercool> I think it will solve the issue
[21:46] <supercool> Another thing is I am having issues with my keyboard layout
[21:47] <arooni> how can i find out why my buuntu laptop is shutting down
[21:47] <supercool> Is there a way to help me identify which keyboard I should be using instead of do it manually
[21:51] <oerheks> supercool,  during installation, keyboard section, it gives a tool to determin your layout
[21:52] <supercool> oerheks: I think I missed that
[21:53] <supercool> Can I still use it after installation
[21:54] <supercool> Also, I got n error message during flash disk format as Error formatting volume
[21:54] <oerheks> supercool, yes; gkbd-keyboard-display -g 1
[21:56] <oerheks> oh, that is just a key test.
[21:56] <supercool> oerheks: this command shows the keyboar I am currently using
[21:58] <supercool> How to I check for badblocks
[21:59] <oerheks> keep posting more questions ...
[21:59] <oerheks> https://askubuntu.com/questions/384758/name-of-detect-keyboard-layout-tool see chesters answer
[22:00] <oerheks> arooni, journaltrl or something like last -x shutdown
[22:10] <arooni> hi
[22:32] <supercool> How to I check for badblocks
[22:35] <oerheks> disks utility can check disks or read smart data.
[22:35] <oerheks> that answer has been given before
[22:36] <supercool> SMART Data & Self-Tests are grayed out
[22:36] <supercool> On Disk utility
[22:37] <oerheks> then that storage is toast?
[22:37] <oerheks> beyond repair?
[22:41] <supercool> not sure, I am checking for badblocks right now
[23:09] <fengshaun> how do I prevent ubuntu from hijacking Ctrl-. in emacs?
[23:10] <fengshaun> whenever I press C-. which is my binding to move around within emacs, ubuntu shows a "e" popup and I have to press enter. It seems like it wants me to enter multiple characters, but then when I press enter it enters the same characters I entered in that small black popup in the editor
[23:10] <fengshaun> I disabled whatever I could find in settings regarding compose key
[23:12] <fengshaun> it does the same in activities overview search box too
[23:12] <fengshaun> not in terminal
[23:16] <fengshaun> this is what I see: https://i.postimg.cc/859Cmq99/Screenshot-from-2021-11-23-17-12-01.png
[23:17] <fengshaun> it's that weird black popup with 'e' inside
[23:18] <fengshaun> also disabled compose key in gnome-tweaks, but no dice
[23:36] <Mantaalex> hi question is it possible to mount a Cifs share as guest? totally without username and passwd i don't get it working i'm been trying for hours
[23:36] <Mantaalex> //192.168.ip/Storage /mnt/storage cifs guest,nounix,dir_mode=0777,file_mode=0666 0 0
[23:38] <Mantaalex> nvm got it working on the last try lol
[23:39] <Matt55> good evening all
[23:40] <Matt55> i have Ubuntu 18.04.6 LTS and im getting Errors were encountered while processing:  nginx-core E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[23:44] <mago> Hi, I install qemu with sudo apt install qemu
[23:45] <mago> But then.. when i run qemu command, nothing happens
[23:45] <sarnold> Matt55: look higher through the logs, that's just the message telling you it failed; hopefully there's something more useful higher up that gives something more specific
[23:46] <sarnold> mago: try qemu-system-x86_64 instead
[23:46] <mago> Thanks sarnold
