Hi all, if I want to mount a nfs volume (root@ubuntu-client:~# mount -t nfs4 -o sec=krb5 ubuntu-server.home:/daten /daten), I get the error mount.nfs4: Operation not permitted. Does anyone know what could be wrong?
SITM 2017-01-28 07:02:14
is there a tool like smartmontools (smartctl) that works with nvme ssd drives like the Samsung 960 EVO ?
tatertots 2017-01-28 07:02:19
markus_e92: you know the ip addy of the nfs correct?
SITM 2017-01-28 07:02:21
I am trying to get smart info on the drive
markus_e92 2017-01-28 07:03:57
tatertos: yes, nfs volumes without krb5 work
Tahr-Poop 2017-01-28 07:08:25
SITM, whats wrong with smartctl? it support nvme ssd's
tatertots 2017-01-28 07:08:49
markus_e92: looks like you'll need to debug/trouble shoot your krb5 then don't you think
SITM 2017-01-28 07:09:09
Tahr-Poop, it doesn't work with the Samsung 960 Pro
SITM 2017-01-28 07:09:26
I just get "/dev/nvme0n1: Unable to detect device type
SITM 2017-01-28 07:09:26
"
ruben 2017-01-28 07:10:55
hi
Tahr-Poop 2017-01-28 07:11:24
SITM, try this -> https://github.com/linux-nvme/nvme-cli
SITM 2017-01-28 07:11:58
ok, I'll give that a whirl
ducasse 2017-01-28 07:16:12
SITM: ubuntu version?
SITM 2017-01-28 07:16:15
thanks Tahr-Poop this is a lot better
SITM 2017-01-28 07:16:20
Ubuntu 16.04LTS
SITM 2017-01-28 07:16:31
the nvme-cli seems to work well
SITM 2017-01-28 07:16:54
I just had to install uuid-dev to get it to build
matti 2017-01-28 07:18:31
:D
tatertots 2017-01-28 07:18:39
nvme-cli should be available in the ubuntu repositories
tatertots 2017-01-28 07:18:55
which would auto take care of any dependency
tatertots 2017-01-28 07:19:12
but you already have it now so ...kinda water under the bridge
SITM 2017-01-28 07:19:31
good to know for the future though
SITM 2017-01-28 07:21:26
430,000 4k random IOPS ... wow
SITM 2017-01-28 07:21:35
this really is the future
Tokke 2017-01-28 07:25:09

Tokke 2017-01-28 07:25:13

Hey guys, upgraded to 16.04 and tried installing the nvidia proprietary drivers, but on reboot I get the graphical login and when I logged in I got the nvidia logo then flicker flicker and back at login page. So I uninstalled the nvidia drivers, and reinstalled the xorg-nouvea but now it doesn't appear to load even the login page. Is there a good place to check for log errors?
ducasse 2017-01-28 07:31:08
tambu: how did you install the nvidia driver?
tambu 2017-01-28 07:31:31
ducasse NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-358.16.run
tambu 2017-01-28 07:31:58
it's old I know.. I installed awhile back and the login problem but as it's mostly just a server I didn't bother trying to fix until now :P
ducasse 2017-01-28 07:32:12
tambu: yeah, that's likely to break things. you should have used the repos.
tambu 2017-01-28 07:32:29
I was thinking I should try and.. get just "default video" to work and then try the repos
tambu 2017-01-28 07:33:05
is there a good way to just wipe and reinstall xorg from scratch?
tambu 2017-01-28 07:33:25
ducasse: this is what I tried to get where I am. sudo apt-get --reinstall install xserver-xorg-video-nouveau
Bashing-om 2017-01-28 07:33:57
tambu: Find the .run file for the uninstall operation: - sudo find / -name "NVIDIA-Linux-*" - .
ducasse 2017-01-28 07:34:39
tambu: it has probably blacklisted nouveau - check the files under /etc/modprobe.d
tambu 2017-01-28 07:34:39
Bashing-om: Sorry I should have mentioned I did already use the --uninstall option on that.. it partially worked but did note some errors about missing files, if I run the installer again now it says No Nvidia driver found
tambu 2017-01-28 07:35:52
ducasse: yes.. I see several mentions of blacklists. http://pastebin.com/rp0QrdSt
FrogCast 2017-01-28 07:36:17
what is a Makefile.linux?
ducasse 2017-01-28 07:36:28
tambu: see if one of them blacklists nouveau
Bashing-om 2017-01-28 07:36:34
tambu: ducasse This then may get complicated . What is presently installed ' dpkg -l | grep -i nvidia ' ?
ducasse 2017-01-28 07:37:10
tambu: nvidia-352_hybrid.conf - move it.
tambu 2017-01-28 07:37:22
Bashing-om: http://pastebin.com/Hiv6X7zT
tambu 2017-01-28 07:38:04
ducasse: I've moved the file to my HOME, is there a way to "force the Xorg" to restart I waas rebooting but as this is my server I will loose internet
moultonl 2017-01-28 07:38:24
wns these doesn't exit on cright?
ducasse 2017-01-28 07:38:32
tambu: sudo systemctl restart lightdm
ducasse 2017-01-28 07:38:49
tambu: but you may need to reboot
tambu 2017-01-28 07:39:12
ducasse: well the screen it's flashing displaying so it's trying to load but now it seems to be stuck in a loop
moultonl 2017-01-28 07:39:17
Bah-- That didn't come out right. I've got two boxes on a sales counter, cleft and cright. On cleft, ran sshfs cright@cright:/home/cright/cleft /remote
tambu 2017-01-28 07:39:25
ducasse should I also remove the blacklist-nouveau file?
moultonl 2017-01-28 07:39:49
and now I'm running, on cleft, rsync -avz /home/cleft /remote
moultonl 2017-01-28 07:40:09
But getting some errors. Is that becuase the cleft group on cleft doesn't exist on cright?
ducasse 2017-01-28 07:40:14
tambu: yes
Bashing-om 2017-01-28 07:40:15
tambu: ducasse clean things up from the 'rc' state ? maybe run ' dpkg --list |grep "^rc" | cut -d " " -f 3 | xargs sudo dpkg --purge ' paying attention to what is to be purged .
tambu 2017-01-28 07:40:59
Bashing-om: thanks i will try that, plus ducasse I will reboot as well it will disconnect me for a minute or so. Thank you for the help :)
moultonl 2017-01-28 07:41:33
I'm getting a buch of permission denied, then some goes, then it hangs
tambu 2017-01-28 07:41:49
Bashing-om: hrm actually that appears to want to purge an awful lot includeint my linux-image-extra files.. perhaps I should just purge the nvidia-* ones?
tambu 2017-01-28 07:42:37
Bashing-om: did you perhaps mean to use this command instead: dpkg --list|grep -i nvidia |grep "^rc" | cut -d " " -f 3

I'm very new to IRC. How do I obtain a list of channels?

ducasse 2017-01-28 07:43:50
tambu: there might be residuals from other packages too, no harm in killing them. rc = residual config
Bashing-om 2017-01-28 07:43:52
tambu: I rarely have seen dpkg make a mistake in what it will remove . But it so pay to err on the side of caution .
