[02:45] <steevb> Merry Christmas Everyone!
[21:06] <philipballew> Good thing you don't work for Netflix today pleia2 since your on call.
[21:06] <pleia2> philipballew: haha, truth
[21:06] <pleia2> my servers are behaving themselves so far :)
[21:06] <philipballew> They must have been well trained.
[21:06] <pleia2> I am very good at my job
[21:07] <pleia2> hehe
[21:07] <philipballew> we are good at what we do most often I would think.
[21:07] <philipballew> I doubt many people need server help on a day when most people are off work and stuff.
[21:09] <pleia2> harddrive failures don't take holidays
[21:11] <philipballew> Can not agree more there
[21:12] <MarkDude> Maligayang Pasko! is how to say Merry Christmas in Filipino
[21:12] <MarkDude> Greetings pleia2 philipballew , everyone
[21:12] <pleia2> g'day MarkDude
[21:13]  * philipballew waves at MarkDude
[21:14] <MarkDude> Saw this a bit ago, found it amusing >>> http://lh3.ggpht.com/-tKsFAgEvTzE/UFGPDFid64I/AAAAAAAAc0s/nzuIX9hhcT4/guinness-records-2013-9%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800

[21:14] <pleia2> hahaha
[21:14] <MarkDude> That was the Hello Kitty winner
[21:15] <MarkDude> Made me feel better about my interest in Hello Kitty
[21:15]  * MarkDude thinks it is similar to how some folks watch that show HOARDERS, and think- hey Im not that bad :D
[21:15]  * MarkDude got another nice blue HK pair of socks
[21:16] <philipballew> MarkDude, so hows the Hello Kitty collection coming for you?
[21:16] <MarkDude> Other clothes also, just mentioning the important stuff
[21:16] <MarkDude> philipballew, ok, it seems its harder for guys to collect
[21:17] <philipballew> MarkDude, because the hello kitty clothes do not fit people over 12?
[21:17] <MarkDude> Its the related pink issue that some women may face intech
[21:17] <MarkDude> Im ok with some pink, just not ALL pink
[21:17] <philipballew> sounds like the talk dropping in #ubuntu-women right now
[21:18]  * philipballew wears all pink
[21:18] <MarkDude> actually, go to Target, they have HK stuff for women
[21:18] <MarkDude> Oooooh, need to add that to my backup puppy install
[21:19] <philipballew> so hows the glamor shots you take coming MarkDude ?
[21:19] <MarkDude> Ok, on break a bit
[21:19] <MarkDude> Planning some fun for 2013
[21:19] <MarkDude> futuristic pinup style
[21:20] <MarkDude> My bluff has been called, so I am gonna pose
[21:20] <philipballew> when are you gonna do a pinup of me?
[21:20] <MarkDude> Not sure about all that yet
[21:20] <MarkDude> in 2013 dude
[21:20] <MarkDude> At thgis point I am dressing up as Hunter S Thompson
[21:21] <MarkDude> Told them I was not willing to take all sorts of drugs tro make it authentic
[21:22] <MarkDude> Ex gf is taking the pics, so its a bit of Cali-casual. Gf is ok with it. I am think of doing a HK style theme, problem is- there is not enough for me to pick from
[21:22] <MarkDude> Still on quest for black pajamas with just a small amount of pink- or maybe no pink
[21:23] <MarkDude> philipballew, for your shoot, I think a Hawaiian theme might work
[21:25] <philipballew> so maybe like a  hula skirt and my "Jesus sandles" as you call them.
[21:25] <MarkDude> Also, keep an eye for secret agent stuff. If we can do a James Bond or 50=60s style
[21:26] <MarkDude> Well yes, Jesus sandals are a must
[21:26] <MarkDude> Similar to Rikii Endsley and her awesome glasses
[21:29] <philipballew> they went over well at oscon. Id walk up to people and say "wanna try Ubuntu" they'd look at the sandals, and walk away from the booth.

[18:30] <Guest25928> Hi there, i am an ubuntu member (bashfulrobot), and for some reason my nich changed. I was trying to auth and set my proper one - however I cannot do this as I am silenced/banned on ubuntu-meet. Can anyone help me out here.
[18:32] <Guest25928> (assuming this is the right place to ask for an assist)
[19:16] <Unit193> Guest25928: /msg nickserv identify bashrulrobot mypasswordhere  then change your nick.
[19:22] <Guest25928> Unit193: I had tried that earlier. States that my current nick is not registered, yet I cannot change it to my regiular one. hmmmm.
[19:23] <Unit193> I made a typo in your nick, but if you only do the password then it''ll try for the current nick, if you include the user you can just authenticate then change your nick.
[19:52] <bashfulrobot> Unit193: thanks! I missed that myself!
[21:13] <Unit193> Happy to help.

[02:54] <Macwinner> i have been running jammy hwe kernel for a while, but I think the most recent one has a bug with the i40e NIC driver
[02:57] <Macwinner> seems to drop packets from a random host in my cluster.. across datacenters and hosting providers. The bug would start about 1hr after running fine.  I stopped nftables and still packets dropped. rmmod and modprobe i50e would fix the problem for a while
[02:57] <Macwinner> downgrading to standard kernel seems to be running fine now

[09:40] <drigy> Does anyone have exporience with ssh connection to a server? My ISP enabled IPv6 and now I am having some issues and cannot connect. Is there a somple way to enable ipv4 and v6 in my conf? I also added ssh pubkey and still not able to access
[09:57] <charlie5> hi all ... after a fresh install of ubuntu with nvidia drivers installed, i find that the nvidia card is not being used ... do i have to do some extra config ? nvidia-xconfig perhaps ?
[09:58] <charlie5> (the nvidia gpu is being used if i set 2 env vars, as per a web page i read)
[10:04] <lotuspsychje> charlie5: what gives : sudo lshw -C video
[10:18] <charlie5> lotuspsychje: i added a file to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d containing   10-nvidia-dri-outputclass.conf   and now the gpu is being used
[10:19] <lotuspsychje> charlie5: the nvidia driver should be picking up your card by default
[10:20] <charlie5> lotuspsychje: that's what i thought :/
[10:20] <lotuspsychje> charlie5: maybe a driver switch my fix a glitch
[10:20] <charlie5> just a sec ... i'm chatting on another computer ..., so i can't paste stuff
[10:21] <charlie5> i'll start pidgin on the computer in question
[10:21] <lotuspsychje> you can use termbin if you like, pass the url from the other pic
[10:21] <lotuspsychje> your-command | nc termbin.com 9999
[10:27] <charlie5-laptop> hi lotuspsychje
[10:29] <charlie5-laptop> this is the file i added from here ...  https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/ubuntu-20-04-does-not-use-nvidia-gpu/243803/2
[10:29] <charlie5-laptop> btw, i'm on xubuntu if that makes a diff
[10:29] <charlie5-laptop> see /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-nvidia-drm-outputclass.conf    in that link
[10:30] <charlie5-laptop> https://pastebin.com/KFK3aT8L    ... is the output of the lshw
[10:31] <charlie5-laptop> that is with the above xorg.conf.d file added
[10:31] <charlie5-laptop> (and gpu being used)
[10:31] <mzoku> I have a Lenovo and there is Ubuntu and Zorin installed on it. I am trying to boot a new install of ubuntu from USB, but there is no HDD found. There is only eMMC card SandDisk 64GB -that is the actuall hard drive, but its not active and can't install anything on it
[10:31] <mzoku> can you please help me with from where do I start fixing this?
[10:32] <lotus|NUC> we can only support ubuntu and its !flavours here mzoku
[10:33] <mzoku> lotus|NUC, ok, ignore that there is Zorin on it, it doesn't. Its just ubuntu.
[10:35] <lotuspsychje> charlie5-laptop: i see you got hybrid graphics with amd/nvidia combo could be the culprit perhaps
[10:36] <charlie5> ah, ok ... i didn't know the laptop had  amd gpu ... i thought it was just mesa
[10:36] <charlie5> just mesa and nvidia
[10:37] <lotuspsychje> charlie5: most cases use an intel/nvidia combo hybrid
[10:37]  * charlie5 hates hybrids :P
[10:37] <charlie5> lotuspsychje: was there something i should have done to prefer the nvidia gpu ?
[10:37] <lotuspsychje> charlie5: what i would do is, switch nvidia driver and see if it glitches your manualy xorg trick
[10:37] <charlie5> nvidia-xconfig ?
[10:38] <lotuspsychje> charlie5: if not, checkout your dmesg logs to see whats going on
[10:38] <charlie5> hokay ... not quite sure what you mean by  ' switch nvidia driver '
[10:39] <lotuspsychje> charlie5: ubuntu-drivers list , would give you your available nvidia driver versions
[10:41] <charlie5-laptop> oh, okay, so switch nvidia driver version ?
[10:41] <lotuspsychje> charlie5-laptop: thats what i would do as a test yes
[10:42] <pagios> can i ask an lvm question here
[10:42] <charlie5-laptop> i'm using the proprietry nvidia driver atm   veriosn -535-generic
[10:43] <lotuspsychje> charlie5-laptop: try one lower, if you have any?
[10:45] <charlie5-laptop> lotuspsychje: there is a 525 version but it is appended with 'open', whatever that means
[10:45]  * charlie5-laptop creates a new timeshift backup in case of disaster :P
[10:46] <charlie5-laptop> might be a few minutes
[10:46] <charlie5-laptop> thanks for the help
[10:46] <lotuspsychje> charlie5-laptop: if you cant get in your system, you can always try !nomodeset
[10:47] <lotuspsychje> charlie5-laptop: or a recoverymode failsafe graphics
[10:47] <lotuspsychje> !nomodeset
[10:47] <lotuspsychje> !recovery
[10:54] <Haris_> I'm getting ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR from browser in a web app housed on 20.04 LTS with apache2. Does this make sense?
[10:54] <Haris_> apache2 already has mod ssl enabled
[10:54] <Haris_> do I need something else to make HTTPS traffic work on it?
[10:55] <Haris_> %s#on#on/from#
[11:00] <charlie5> hmm, lotuspsychje ... i just got my online game client working on the laptop ... the server is running on my desktop but they are talking via wan
[11:00] <charlie5> it's kinda a breakthru
[11:01] <charlie5> i'm not sure i want to mess with it much more atm :/
[11:01] <charlie5> thanks a heap for the help so far
[11:03] <Haris_> other than enabling SSL Module on apache on focal, do I need to do anything else to make SSL traffic work with apache?
[11:04] <alumne_> hola
[11:14] <Haris_> do I need to do something other than a2enmod ssl to have a proper working mod ssl in apache on focal?
[11:24] <Haris_> guys, anyone around?
[11:46] <Paris> seems no one know, better ask #apache with the ubuntu you usiung.

[13:18] <plujon> On Ubuntu 16, why does `apt install g++-multilib` remove `g++-aarch64-linux-gnu`?  Is there some easier way to target x86_64, aarch64, and i686 on the same ubuntu host?

[13:32] <ioria> plujon, some of the workaround might work
[13:32] <plujon> ioria: Thanks; I'll take a look.
[13:32] <ioria> ok
[13:40] <BluesKaj> HI all
[14:10] <pragmaticenigma> GeekShadow: You'll want to report that as a bug, or find an open ticket and add yourself as another affected user: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs
[14:17] <Haris_> I installed apache2 + mod ssl + with running apache as a custom linux user on focal. I'm getting when I browse an https based vhost -> https://dpaste.com/2NZ7LBJLD
[14:18] <Haris_> my traffic is ending up on port 80, rather than on port 443
[14:19] <joo> I have had many ubuntu computers over the years, and still do. One common problem is not being able to quickly save a file from firefox, thunderbird or other applications... the file save dialog tages 5-10 seconds to appear, and is quite slow like nautilus... Anybody knows of a solution ?  If you type in example.com to a web browser, by default the browser goes to the unsecured port 80
[14:38] <Haris_> I have a permanent redirect already configured on the port http vhost
[14:38] <Haris_> for going to https
[14:40] <pragmaticenigma> Haris_: In my experience, you avoid permanent redirects. They cause more trouble than you may know. Your question may require more advanced help, have you tried #apache or #ubuntu-server?
[14:40] <pragmaticenigma> *you should avoid
[14:40] <Haris_> already on it
[14:53] <dwigton_> If I make my own executables where should I put them on my machine to make them available to all users? It is ok to just dump in /usr/bin?
[14:54] <leftyfb> dwigton_: /usr/local/bin/
[14:55] <dwigton_> leftyfb: thanks
[14:57] <pragmaticenigma> you can also use /opt if you want to keep the binary, config and datafiles in the same place
[15:17] <webchat80> Have any of you used tripwire?
[15:20] <Guest11> hi
[15:21] <pragmaticenigma> webchat80: If you have a support question, please feel free to ask it here. If you're interested in getting peoples experience and opinions on something, please visit us in #ubuntu-offtopic.
[15:21] <Guest11> did I make it to ubuntu chat
[15:21] <Guest11> any of you use the software tripwire
[15:21] <pragmaticenigma> Guest11: If you have a support question, please feel free to ask it here. If you're interested in getting peoples experience and opinions on something, please visit us in #ubuntu-offtopic.
[15:22] <leftyfb> Guest11: https://computingforgeeks.com/install-and-configure-tripwire-on-ubuntu/
[15:26] <Guest11> So with that , I have a pop up personal ad that covers screen and does not go away
[15:26] <leftyfb> Guest11: close your browser
[15:29] <Guest11> iss it an opinion to ask,  does tripwire do the website suggests it will do?
[15:30] <Guest11> is there a better way to verify that the boot sector or software has been tampered with
[15:30] <Guest11> or even firmware
[15:30] <leftyfb> Guest11: what release of ubuntu are you running?
[15:30] <Guest11> I can change versions
[15:31] <Guest11> 22.04 lts
[15:31] <Guest11> I read that there was something recent having to do with the later versions and TPM 2.0
[15:31] <leftyfb> Guest11: what exactly is your ubuntu support question?
[15:32] <Guest11> Tripwire,,,  is there a better way to verify that the boot sector or software has been tampered with
[15:32] <Guest11> I am awre of heads, for some computers which requires opening computer and hardware flashing
[15:32] <leftyfb> Guest11: You're asking for suggestions and opinions on software, specifically security related. I would try #security
[15:33] <Guest11> thansks
[16:16] <plujon> After removing the failing drive, and using vanilla kernel boot parameters, my Ubuntu 22.04 LTS computer still sometimes fails to shut down fully.
[16:17] <plujon> How can one troubleshoot this?    But the display goes dark.
[16:20] <pragmaticenigma> plujon: Start jounalling what you are doing in your daily sessions, and note whether or not the system froze on shutdown. Look for a trend. If it is everytime you use a VM, perhaps the VM is hung in shutdown. Things like that.
[16:23] <dreamcat4> hows it going guyss?
[16:24] <dreamcat4> ... and any major system changes when upgrading from the 23.04 to the 23.10 or the 24.04 ?
[16:24] <ravage> read the release notes
[16:25] <dreamcat4> just debating whether to delay my upgrades proceedure until april. since its feb now only 2 more months
[16:25] <dreamcat4> doesnt seem worth it to do it now. then to have to again so soon
[16:26] <ravage> upgrades from 22.04 to 24.04 will be available with 24.04.1
[16:26] <ravage> so not in april
[16:26] <dreamcat4> i am on 23.04 though
[16:26] <ravage> then you need to upgrade now because your release is EOL
[16:27] <dreamcat4> ah yeah i do forget that always...
[16:27] <dreamcat4> but i shall wait the 2 month anyhow. and do them both at once
[16:27] <ravage> no
[16:28] <ravage> you should not be online with a system without security updates for 2 months
[16:28] <dreamcat4> for the sake of the disruption. it puts me out of business 1-2 days
[16:28] <dreamcat4> oh i thought i still gets those (the security ones)
[16:28] <ravage> have a backup. the upgrade takes maybe 30 mins
[16:28] <ravage> no
[16:28] <ravage> your release is EOL
[16:29] <dreamcat4> ok thanks for informing me
[16:53] <Guest68> Hello! For a while now my GNU screen has been very annoying. Opening nano in gnu screen blanks all characters after every 10% or so of cursor movements. I have to move cursor again to restore the characters.
[16:54] <Guest68> I believe it is Ubuntu Server 23.10 fresh install. I botched an upgrade from a previous version and as such I might have left something from the old install somewhere... it's unclear what sparked this difference when it worked before.
[16:57] <Guest68> It doesn't seem to be a problem with nano. The difference occurs any time I do any large scrolling action. Never seen it happen before
[18:32] <aidenk> hello
[18:46] <PeGaSuS> hello guys. if I `snap disable <snap name>` it isn't auto updated, etc, right?
[18:47] <leftyfb> PeGaSuS: sudo snap refresh --hold <snap name>
[18:48] <leftyfb> "disable" disables the application completely. As in, it can't be run
[18:48] <PeGaSuS> gotcha! thanks
[19:17] <ZFSonRootandEncr> Hey all, quick question. Through the GUI installation, is there a way to obtain ZFS on Root, and ZFS Native encryption enabled through a TPM Chip? It seems that they are not mutually inclusive, and the FDE doesn't allow me to also select ZFS (with a fTPM, waiting for a dTPM chip at the moment).
[19:18] <ZFSonRootandEncr> Or vice-a-versa, I can't select ZFS and enable FDE
[19:44] <mguy> 22.04.3 server, having problems getting cron jobs running for most users. same rules exist for all, what else could be causing `CRON[pid]: Permission denied` when running a job?
[19:45] <mguy> pam_sss(cron:account): Access denied for user abc123: 6 (Permission denied)
[19:47] <EriC^^> mguy: what's the command you're using?
[19:47] <mguy> EriC^^: The 'cron job' is just `touch /tmp/username`, it works if I hot-wire cron by moving pam_sss.so towards the top and making it `sufficient`
[19:48] <mguy> in /etc/pam.d/cron
[19:48] <EriC^^> ah no idea
[19:48] <mguy> My user and another user can run them without issue, we are both in the admin group on the ipa server we are using
[19:49] <mguy> But there are rules for the other users (all users actually) on the ipa server and they pass hbactest
[19:55] <leftyfb> mguy: hbactest is not available on ubuntu and I don't think freeipad server is anymore either
[19:56] <mguy> freeipa-common/jammy,now 4.9.8-1 all [installed,automatic
[19:56] <mguy> The command is `ipa hbactest`
[19:57] <leftyfb> why not use systemd timers instead of cron?
[19:58] <mguy> Because I have users that were using cronjobs on the previous server
[20:10] <derek-shnosh> Ubuntu 23.10 - multi-display dissimilar resolution/scaling and individual app scaling. Laptop with built in display at 3072x1920@120hz 200% scaling, external display at 3440x1440@160hz 100% scaling. Gnome apps, like Files, adjust scaling properly when dragging from one display to another. Other apps like Hexchat, Joplin, and MS-Edge (I know, I know, work stuff) stay at 200% scaling when dragged to the external display.
[20:10] <derek-shnosh> This includes their title bars, etc.
[20:12] <derek-shnosh> ... Firefox (via apt) works fine, that is, changes scale appropriately when dragging between displays.
[20:12] <pragmaticenigma> derek-shnosh: are you in a wayland or X11 session?
[20:12] <derek-shnosh> Oh, using wayland.
[20:14] <derek-shnosh> Noticing now that the right-click context menu (on desktop) on the external (100% scaling) display is very large as well.
[20:14] <pragmaticenigma> derek-shnosh: are you able to try running an X11 session and see if the problem exists there? (I believe the issue you're having is a known issue with apps not being wayland ready and running under xwayland)
[20:15] <derek-shnosh> I can try in X11 yeah... will have to live with it if that's the solution, I don't get the same _smooth_ experience in X11 than I have in Wayland. I love high refresh.
[20:15] <derek-shnosh> Standby.
[20:18] <derek-shnosh> pragmaticenigma: seems to be a bit worse on X11. Now I can't seem to set different scale % per display.
[20:18] <derek-shnosh> When I change external to 100%, the built-in display also changes.
[20:18] <derek-shnosh> And vice versa.
[20:19] <pragmaticenigma> You might need ... ... ...
[20:20] <derek-shnosh> pragmaticenigma: woops, client quit.
[20:20] <pragmaticenigma> derek-shnosh: was about to mention you might need fractional scaling enabled in X11 https://askubuntu.com/a/1195175
[20:21] <derek-shnosh> pragmaticenigma: gotcha, I will have to look into that, bookmarked the link.
[20:22] <pragmaticenigma> derek-shnosh: lots of active development for wayland still going on fortunately. probably just a matter of time until everything shakes out and everyone plays nice :)
[20:26] <derek-shnosh> pragmaticenigma: actually that link was helpful. In wayland I was able to use dconf-editor to modify /org/gnome/mutter/experimental-features and put the value ['scale-monitor-framebuffer'] in and save.
[20:26] <pragmaticenigma> cool, was just about to suggest that for a wayland session, see if it helps :)
[20:27] <derek-shnosh> There are some oddities with the cursor size when at the edges of windows (to resize them). But I can live with it because I'm not often in this workspace.
[20:27] <derek-shnosh> Thanks very much for your response and helpful link!
[20:28] <pragmaticenigma> you're welcome

[22:44] <Kangarooo> HUGE problem. I did updates for kUbuntu i didnt do for maybe almoust year and since i have autologin i now i have only mouse and no icons, desktop or panels. And in tty it doesnt recognize password spacebar or maybe i had different password.
[22:44] <Kangarooo> many people can be affected
[22:46] <arraybolt3> Kangarooo: Try pressing Alt+F2.
[22:46] <arraybolt3> That should give you a KRunner place to type commands.
[22:46] <arraybolt3> If that works, type `plasmashell` (without the backticks) and press Enter.
[23:23] <Muligan> hey folks, kinda rusty on my FTP skills
[23:23] <Muligan> have a local user establisehd, able to FTP into this server, but unable to create files/folders in targeted directory
[23:23] <Muligan> suggestions?
[23:24] <pragmaticenigma> does the user have the correct file system permissions to create objects in the shared directory? Either group or user level?
[23:24] <Muligan> running vsftpd, 'write_enable=yes' is uncommented
[23:25] <Muligan> yes, i've given chown perms to said filder
[23:25] <Muligan> folder
[23:25] <Muligan> it resides in their own /home/test_user directory
[23:25] <Muligan> only thing that I haven't enabled on this server is 'chroot_local_user=yes'
[23:26] <Muligan> very plain jane install here...
[23:27] <pragmaticenigma> This might be a side note, but why FTP and not SFTP?
[23:28] <Muligan> legacy equipment upgrades
[23:28] <Muligan> I've checked w/winscp from my workstation for sftp, and i'm getting a diff error
[23:29] <Muligan> 'Received SSH2_MSG_CHANNEL_DATA for nonexistent channel 0'
[23:30] <Muligan> wow
[23:30] <Muligan> sure doesn't help that I missed checking available disk space on this thing
[23:31] <leftyfb> Muligan: I suggest not using FTP. Use sftp instead
[23:31] <Muligan> I agree, whole heartedly
[23:31] <Muligan> and I'll be working towards that for sure
[23:34] <Muligan> even still with sftp, unable to write
