| Three short beeps asrock mobo not booting tried new ram Posted: 30 Apr 2021 10:25 AM PDT I'm trobleshooting an old asrock motherboard that I found on the dump. It's an asrock g41m vs3 motherboard that I brought a new ram stick to test on, a trascend 1066 mhz ddr3 1GB ram. After installing the new ram I get three short beeps that repeats continously, this indicates bad ram module but the ram is totally new. I swapped ram slots, reseated, reseted the bios even tried a post card but nothing seems to work. Bad ram slots? Bus problem? Btw the cmos battery I'm using is a bit old, I measured it's voltage and it reads almost 1v, I think this shouldn't be the problem.  |
| Computer freezes on display disconnect or power on Posted: 30 Apr 2021 10:15 AM PDT Using Manjaro Linux, kernel 5.10.32-1, NVidia RTX GPU, propertiary NVidia drivers, Ryzen 3900 CPU. This does not happen when running Windows 10. The issue is with the system freezing when I power on the display while the Linux system is running. It works fine as long as the display is off. I can ssh into it, I can use the keyboard to (blindly) switch to a console and issue a reboot. When I tap numlock/capslock, their LEDS on the keyboard change state until I power on the display, at which point the system becomes unresponsive. If I turn the display off, wait a few seconds for it to properly power down (it has some sort of soft-off feature), then power it back on, the computer will freeze. The freeze also happens when I unplug the display's HDMI connector. Doesn't happen on Windows, so I don't think it's electrical or a hardware issue. I disabled all screen locking and screen blanking/power down settings in the Linux system. The system runs fine when idle or under load. It can also wake up from sleep, although it will freeze if the TV was off during wake up and is turned on after. This is not an issue with entering/waking from a power saving mode. Please help me diagnose and fix this issue.  |

| tcpdump to perform wireless capture with advanced filters Posted: 30 Apr 2021 10:15 AM PDT I'm trying to use tcpdump to perform realtime wireless captures (without the option to save the file) on a MAC. My wireless interface is en0. I want to use similar filters as I would in Wireshark. My exact goal is to capture channel utilization and client count, but filter on a condition (great than or less than). The way I would do this in Wireshark is with the following filters: Channel utilization: wlan.bssid == 11:22:33:44:55:66 && wlan.qbss.cu > 50 Client count: wlan.bssid == 11:22:33:44:55:66 && wlan.qbss.scount == 7
How can I do the same with tcpdump? The closest I found so far was another post here. Note: Using tshark is not an option as I want to use this in a script and it needs to be exportable to systems that don't have Wirehshark installed.  |
| Tomcat & httpd - tomcat no response anymore Posted: 30 Apr 2021 09:04 AM PDT I installed Apache Tomcat 9.0.41 a few months ago on CentOS 7 (and it was working fine the whole time). Now I installed httpd on the same server (as a proxy for multiple domains + SSL). httpd proxy seems to work fine - it is redirecting requests to the right servers. But tomcat does not work anymore. Tomcat - 8080 httpd - 80, 443 Tomcat and httpd run under different non-privileged users. No errors in log files. It makes no difference if httpd is running or not. When I run curl localhost:8080 - waiting indefinitely. Telnet works. This is the default connector settings from Tomcat conf/server.xml Connector port="8080" protocol="HTTP/1.1" connectionTimeout="20000" redirectPort="8443" I also tried uncomment protocol="AJP/1.3" - no luck. Connector protocol="AJP/1.3" address="::1" port="8009" redirectPort="8443" I guess it is just a configuration problem, but I have no idea what to change. SSL problem?
Thank you.  |
| Pop os dual boot issues Posted: 30 Apr 2021 09:23 AM PDT I tried to dual boot Pop!_OS 20.04 LTS. It already had Windows in it. So I created a partition and formatted it to ext4. After successful installation I tried to switch to Windows. Then I selected the partition with Windows in the boot menu but instead of windows, pop showed up. I tried to use the Windows Media Creation Tool to repair it, but while trying to boot into the pen drive's UEFI partition, I would still boot into Pop OS itself. Running fdisk -l outputs: Disk /dev/sda: 223.58 GiB, 240057409536 bytes, 468862128 sectors Disk model: KINGSTON SA400S3 Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disklabel type: dos Disk identifier: 0xc241bdfe Device Boot Start End Sectors Size Id Type /dev/sda1 * 1026048 203700092 202674045 96.7G 7 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT /dev/sda2 203700224 204797951 1097728 536M 27 Hidden NTFS WinRE /dev/sda3 204800000 468858879 264058880 125.9G 83 Linux
The Boot Mode is set to: auto, so it should be able to boot both UEFI and legacy. efibootmgr -v outputs:

Did I screw up my BIOS or my EFI? How do I fix this ? Please give any possible solutions. Thanx!  |

| Prevent direct access to internal URLs Posted: 30 Apr 2021 08:35 AM PDT I have server1 (Javascript application running on AWS EC2 with nginx in public subnet) and server2 (api server on AWS EC2 in private subnet). In the security group of AWS for Server2 I have set port access only for Server1 security group (instead of open access). In nginx config file I have added : location /myapi/ { proxy_pass http://xxx.xxx.x.xxx:9000; //API server2 }
Now from my application I can access server2 API via internal calls without any issue. But the issue is I can also directly access http://myapplication.com/myapi . I want to prevent any direct access to http://myapplication.com/myapi but this should work when called from within my application running on Server1 (this IP). I am not sure if this is OAuth domain I should be looking at to secure communication. Or is it something at AWS Security Group level or nginx level I should be setting . Thank you for any pointers/insights.  |

| dwmblocks clicks not working in arch linux? Posted: 30 Apr 2021 08:19 AM PDT I have dwmblocks installed with dwm on arch linux. As per suckless website i have followed the steps which are written over there. - Patched dwm with statuscmd (signal version)
- Patched dwmblocks with dwmblocks-statuscmd as required
- I added $BUTTON variable in my script running in dwmblocks
- After Patching i installed both dwm and dwmblocks again with
sudo make clean install - But when i restarted X-server clicks were not working and i also restarted my pc but it didn't helped.
i don't have status2d patch installed What is happening when i am clicking on statusbar --> a part of status bar going invisible   - This part is in my dwm/config.h file which handles mouse clicks, added after patching the file
{ ClkStatusText, 0, Button1, sigstatusbar, {.i = 1} }, { ClkStatusText, 0, Button2, sigstatusbar, {.i = 2} }, { ClkStatusText, 0, Button3, sigstatusbar, {.i = 3} },
- and below is the script displaying values in statusbar and handling the output of click events
#!/bin/sh dwm_battery () { # Change BAT1 to whatever your battery is identified as. Typically BAT0 or BAT1 CHARGE=$(cat /sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/capacity) STATUS=$(cat /sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/status) if [[ $STATUS = "Charging" ]]; then if [[ $CHARGE -lt 11 ]]; then printf " | " elif [[ $CHARGE -ge 11 && $CHARGE -lt 44 ]]; then printf " $CHARGE | " elif [[ $CHARGE -ge 45 && $CHARGE -lt 66 ]]; then printf " $CHARGE | " elif [[ $CHARGE -ge 66 && $CHARGE -lt 90 ]]; then printf " $CHARGE | " else printf " $CHARGE | " fi elif [[ $STATUS = "Not charging" ]]; then printf " $CHARGE | " else if [[ $CHARGE -lt 11 ]]; then printf " | " elif [[ $CHARGE -ge 11 && $CHARGE -lt 44 ]]; then printf " $CHARGE | " elif [[ $CHARGE -ge 45 && $CHARGE -lt 66 ]]; then printf " $CHARGE | " elif [[ $CHARGE -ge 66 && $CHARGE -lt 90 ]]; then printf " $CHARGE | " else printf " $CHARGE | " fi fi } dwm_battery case $BUTTON in 1) notify-send "button 1" ;; 2) notify-send "button 2" ;; 3) notify-send "button 3" ;; esac
I tried this script with setting BUTTON as value 1 and it worked so there is no problem with the script.
This is my configuration file for dwm, if this helps  |

| Is it possible to print multiple copies to PDF using CUPS/lpr Posted: 30 Apr 2021 07:56 AM PDT I'm testing an application that sends PDFs to a printer, and it may request that multiple copies are printed, sending a command like /usr/bin/lpr -T Document Title -# 10
I don't have access to a physical printer, so I'm using the CUPS generic virtual printer to "print" PDFs to disk. This works, however regardless of the number of copies requested, it only prints a single file. $ echo hello > hello.txt $ lpr -P PDF -T test -# 2 hello.txt $ ls PDF/ test.pdf
Is there a configuration that will respect the copies argument, for example creating hello-1.pdf and hello-2.pdf? - Distribution is Debian 9.
- cups: 2.2.1-8+deb9u6
- cups-bsd: 2.2.1-8+deb9u6

| Removing blackarch completely from system Posted: 30 Apr 2021 07:17 AM PDT I've installed BlackArch like an idiot and not too long ago I tried to remove all files but there are still some crumbs left of it. I tried to update the packages through the terminal and this is what I got: sudo pacman -Syyu :: Synchronizing package databases... core 148.9 KiB 242K/s 00:01 [######################] 100% extra 1759.7 KiB 296K/s 00:06 [######################] 100% community 5.3 MiB 568K/s 00:10 [######################] 100% multilib 183.2 KiB 1263K/s 00:00 [######################] 100% blackarch 2.7 MiB 752K/s 00:04 [######################] 100% blackarch.sig 566.0 B 0.00B/s 00:00 [######################] 100% error: blackarch: signature from "Levon 'noptrix' Kayan (BlackArch Developer) <noptrix@nullsecurity.net>" is invalid error: failed to update blackarch (invalid or corrupted database (PGP signature)) error: failed to synchronize all databases
How do I completely remove all instances of BlackArch from my computer? I don't want it to consistently look for its package updates! I tried the following: paclist blackarch | cut -d' ' -f1 | xargs sudo pacman -R checking dependencies... error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies) :: bind-tools: removing geoip breaks dependency 'geoip' :: cryptsetup: removing argon2 breaks dependency 'argon2' :: gnome-color-manager: removing exiv2 breaks dependency 'exiv2' :: gnome-nettool: removing iputils breaks dependency 'iputils' :: libgexiv2: removing exiv2 breaks dependency 'exiv2' :: php: removing argon2 breaks dependency 'argon2'

| How to choose Qt installation? Posted: 30 Apr 2021 09:16 AM PDT I've built (configure, make, make install) Qt 5.4.2 from sources on my Debian 7.8 x64. Now I try to build Qt Creator, but my system is unable to locate this specific Qt build. Firstly, I tried to set $QTDIR and $PATH, but it didn't work. Then, I have read that it is necessary to use qtchooser. So, this is what I have so far: ber@mydeb:/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qtchooser$ qtchooser -l 4 5 @5 @qt5 default qt4-x86_64-linux-gnu qt4 qt5-x86_64-linux-gnu qt5
Initially, there was no default conf, but I've created it using the following: ber@mydeb:/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qtchooser$ sudo nano default.conf
with the text: QT_SELECT="5" QTTOOLDIR="/usr/local/Qt-5.4.1/bin" QTLIBDIR="/usr/local/Qt-5.4.1/"
After this, my system still used a wrong Qt installation (from the /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ folder), which does not contain a working Qt installation. Then, I tried to set QT_SELECT=default, then QT_SELECT=5 and here is what I have now: qtchooser -print-env QT_SELECT="qt5" QTTOOLDIR="QT_SELECT="5"" QTLIBDIR="QTTOOLDIR="/usr/local/Qt-5.4.1/bin""
i.e., QTTOOLDIR=variable is wrong and here is an error displayed when I try to use qmake: qmake -v qmake: could not exec 'QT_SELECT="5"/qmake': No such file or directory
What should I do to choose the correct Qt installation (the one installed to the /usr/local/Qt-5.4.1/ folder)?  |
| How to disable user specific tmpfs /run/user/1000, tmpfs Posted: 30 Apr 2021 07:32 AM PDT Is there any way to disable system creating user specific tmp mount /run/user/1000, tmpfs per each log-in session? I know this is a new feature, but I want to get the system running older way.  |
| How to set UIDs and GIDs during install of Debian? Posted: 30 Apr 2021 09:07 AM PDT During installation of Debian the default initial UID is 1000 and GID is 1000. When creating a user account during install, is there a way to specify their specific values, for example 3197?  |
| In scripts is partx better than fdisk for reading partition table? Posted: 30 Apr 2021 08:07 AM PDT I have had some scripts, that used the output of "fdisk -l", fail on different versions of Linux, because the output of fdisk differs slightly. The "partx --show" command appears to be standard on most systems (packaged along with fdisk). If I convert scripts to parse the output of "partx --show", will these scripts perform better over time? Have your scripts that use partx been stable or portable across releases?  |
| Untar filenames in a character encoding different from encoding used in the filesystem Posted: 30 Apr 2021 10:02 AM PDT I occasionally get tarballs where the filenames are encoded in ISO-8859-1 or some other pre-Unicode scheme. My system uses UTF-8, so when I untar these archives with the usual options (tar xvf foo.tar) I end up with a directory full of mojibake filenames. Until now I've been using convmv to convert the filenames to UTF-8 after they've been extracted. This is a bit incovenient, because I either need to invoke convmv on each affected file, or else untar the file into a new directory, run convmv on the entire directory, and then move the files to where I wanted them originally. Short of coding this functionality into a shell script, is there some way of converting the archived filenames to UTF-8 on the fly, as they are being untarred?  |
| How to extract logs between two time stamps Posted: 30 Apr 2021 08:43 AM PDT I want to extract all logs between two timestamps. Some lines may not have the timestamp, but I want those lines also. In short, I want every line that falls under two time stamps. My log structure looks like: [2014-04-07 23:59:58] CheckForCallAction [ERROR] Exception caught in +CheckForCallAction :: null --Checking user-- Post [2014-04-08 00:00:03] MobileAppRequestFilter [DEBUG] Action requested checkforcall
Suppose I want to extract everything between 2014-04-07 23:00 and 2014-04-08 02:00. Please note the start time stamp or end time stamp may not be there in the log, but I want every line between these two time stamps.  |
