Aleksejs | Hello, I have a serious problem and need your help! My PC does nothing when I try to login. I can login in shell (C-A-F1), but cannot login in plasma. It just doesn't do anything. It doesn't even show info about failed login or so | 05:50 |
hateball | Aleksejs: Is this a new install, upgrade, etc? | 05:50 |
hateball | Aleksejs: What has changed since it was last working? | 05:51 |
Aleksejs | nothing, just installed upgrades | 05:51 |
Aleksejs | installation is old | 05:51 |
Aleksejs | when I login into shell, I see warning cannot set locale en_LV.UTF-8 | 05:52 |
hateball | Aleksejs: Alright, let's check the usual suspects. When you login at tty1, check your user owns ~/.Xauthority | 05:52 |
Aleksejs | my user has 600 rights on it | 05:53 |
Aleksejs | I can login into plasma via guest user... | 05:54 |
Aleksejs | any more ideas? | 05:57 |
hateball | Aleksejs: alright, check "find ~/ ! -user $USER" | 05:57 |
hateball | Aleksejs: see if any permissions are wonky | 05:57 |
Aleksejs | should it work for a long time? | 05:59 |
Aleksejs | ok, it gave response | 06:00 |
hateball | well it checks for files not owned by you. usually this is bad. | 06:01 |
Aleksejs | it shows ~/.gnupg permission denied | 06:01 |
hateball | Aleksejs: well, that should be owned by your user but I don't think it would stop a logon | 06:02 |
Aleksejs | I forgot to mention, I have a fingerprint login/sudo, but it never actually worked on plasma login, but it always works on tty login and sudo | 06:03 |
Aleksejs | can it affect? | 06:04 |
hateball | I have no idea about fingerprint logins, but I am assuming it is just an extra pam module | 06:05 |
Aleksejs | ~/.gnupg is owned but root:root atm | 06:05 |
hateball | So you'd still be able to use username/password | 06:05 |
Aleksejs | how about that locale warning? | 06:06 |
hateball | Aleksejs: You may need to regenerate locales. I'd also sudo chown -R $USER:$USER ~/.gnupg | 06:07 |
Aleksejs | it shows me lang lv_LV but it was en before | 06:10 |
Aleksejs | ok, I'll try to reboot now | 06:13 |
Aleksejs | I'm back, but it's still broken | 06:31 |
hateball | :/ | 06:32 |
hateball | Aleksejs: does anything get logged to ~/.xsession-errors after you try logging in? | 06:32 |
Aleksejs | yes, there is a warning about locales and then gpg-agent post-stop killed, and that's all | 06:34 |
Aleksejs | I still see that warning each time I try to login via tty | 06:34 |
Aleksejs | I actually don't know why ubuntu decided to change my language to en_LV, I was always using en_US | 06:35 |
Aleksejs | the warning is "bash: warning: setlocale: LC_ALL: cannot change locale (en_LV.UTF-8)" and it appears twice | 06:35 |
hateball | Aleksejs: do you have the en_LV local on your system? | 06:38 |
hateball | Aleksejs: if you run "locale", is it listed? If not, sudo locale-gen en_LV.UTF.8 | 06:40 |
hateball | Aleksejs: just to get that out of the way... then we can see if it helps you get a GUI and let you set en_US again | 06:40 |
hateball | Aleksejs: also, type on locale-gen, but you get it | 06:40 |
Aleksejs | there's no en_LV in that list | 06:40 |
hateball | typo* | 06:40 |
hateball | gah | 06:40 |
Aleksejs | it doesn't appear after locale-gen | 06:41 |
Aleksejs | I have no idea why ubuntu decided to use that locale | 06:42 |
Aleksejs | can I just drop to en_US? | 06:42 |
hateball | Aleksejs: check what your ~/.config/plasma-localerc contains | 06:44 |
hateball | It should be your desired/existing locale | 06:45 |
hateball | Aleksejs: and what does "localectl status" return? | 06:47 |
Aleksejs | there's no plasma-localerc there. And localectl status returns LANG=en_US.UTF-8 and others are lv_LV.UTF-8 | 06:50 |
hateball | hmmm. | 06:52 |
hateball | well it should fall back to an existing locale anyhow, but it is weird if you cant add a new one | 06:53 |
hateball | Aleksejs: find en_LV in /etc/locale.gen and uncomment it (if it is) then run sudo locale-gen again | 06:54 |
hateball | hmmm, there is no en_LV | 06:54 |
hateball | only lv_LV | 06:54 |
Aleksejs | well... there's no /etc/locale.gen | 06:54 |
hateball | uh... | 06:55 |
Aleksejs | if you mean /etc/locale.alias | 06:55 |
Aleksejs | then there's no en_LV line | 06:55 |
Aleksejs | also there's no lv_LV line :) | 06:56 |
hateball | Well then I do not know | 06:57 |
hateball | My system has gone 14.04 -> 16.04 | 06:57 |
anton_p | try reinstall 'locales' | 06:57 |
=== Guest76610 is now known as AciD` | ||
Aleksejs | still no effect | 07:12 |
Aleksejs | I'm grepping for LC_ALL in my home folder because I have no any other idea :( | 07:12 |
Aleksejs | I googled how to fix that locale problem | 07:27 |
Aleksejs | but still cannot login | 07:28 |
Aleksejs | is there anything else I can check? | 07:28 |
Aleksejs | well.. I tried to purge and reinstall plasma, it didn't help. But I lost my settings and now KDE looks like some unity or other "friendly" shit | 07:38 |
Aleksejs | I guess I need another DE | 07:39 |
hateball | since you can log in as a different user it's hardly a DE problem | 07:41 |
hateball | I've run out of ideas what it can be tho | 07:41 |
hateball | backup data, create new user? | 07:41 |
Aleksejs | omg | 08:10 |
Aleksejs | I finally could log in | 08:10 |
Aleksejs | lost all configs and now KDE looks and feels like shit | 08:10 |
Aleksejs | I don't know if KDE developers are here but I wish you to know that I hate you very much | 08:11 |
Aleksejs | it's not only visual | 08:11 |
memphisto | :) | 08:11 |
makinen_ | :D | 08:11 |
Aleksejs | VPN doesn't save settings | 08:11 |
Aleksejs | I can't connect to my office VPN | 08:12 |
Aleksejs | thanks to you guys I got an unpaid day off | 08:12 |
Aleksejs | also the panel is shit and cannot be configured | 08:12 |
memphisto | as a workaround could you create another account and configure your VPN | 08:12 |
memphisto | and then in free time fix the issue on the current account | 08:13 |
Aleksejs | It doesn't save password for VPN | 08:13 |
Aleksejs | it doesn't work without password | 08:13 |
Aleksejs | so, no | 08:13 |
memphisto | check the /etc/NetworkManager/VPN | 08:14 |
memphisto | there should be passwords for network manager if you use it | 08:14 |
Aleksejs | there's nothing about my connection | 08:15 |
Aleksejs | probably this info is stored elsewhere | 08:15 |
memphisto | where you using network manager or something else to connect to vpn | 08:16 |
memphisto | kvpnc | 08:16 |
Aleksejs | also, auto hide "feature" for panel cannot be turned off and it annoys very much :) | 08:16 |
memphisto | or something else | 08:16 |
Aleksejs | I usually connect either via nmcli or just by clicking on VPN in network menu | 08:17 |
memphisto | so its Network manager | 08:17 |
memphisto | configuration should be there | 08:17 |
acheronuk | a recall a few perhaps related VPN bugs in networkmanager/qt | 08:18 |
memphisto | here should be your connection /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections | 08:19 |
memphisto | could you check | 08:19 |
acheronuk | LP: 1569674 | 08:19 |
ubottu | Launchpad bug 1569674 in networkmanager-qt (Ubuntu Xenial) "[Kubuntu] Fail to connect to wifi after a recent update" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1569674 | 08:19 |
Aleksejs | also once I enter panel settings I can't quit, and panel becomes unusable | 08:19 |
Aleksejs | memphisto: there's no password | 08:20 |
hateball | Aleksejs: Plasma 5.5 is very buggy, you could try using kubuntu backports | 08:21 |
hateball | altho it is a PPA and not supported etc... | 08:21 |
* hateball uses it on all his machines | 08:21 | |
Aleksejs | hateball: funny thing is that I haven't installed 5.5 | 08:22 |
Aleksejs | all worked good till this morning | 08:22 |
hateball | Aleksejs: So you are not on 16.04? | 08:24 |
Aleksejs | hateball: not yet | 08:30 |
Aleksejs | ok, I could add a VPN on my windows PC :D | 08:30 |
Aleksejs | atm windows is better than KDE :D | 08:30 |
Aleksejs | is it possible to roll back plasma version? | 08:31 |
hateball | Aleksejs: So what version are you on? 14.04 ? | 08:31 |
hateball | That would explain you not having config files in ~/.config, in 14.04 most of that stuff is in ~/.kde | 08:32 |
hateball | The locale configs etc | 08:32 |
Aleksejs | hateball: yes, 14.04 | 08:34 |
Aleksejs | more bugs with network manager: I add a wifi password, then I logout/login, and wifi password is lost | 08:35 |
Aleksejs | do-release-upgrade shows that no new releases found | 08:37 |
hateball | !ltsupgrade | Aleksejs | 08:37 |
ubottu | Aleksejs: Users of 14.04 LTS will be offered the automatic upgrade when 16.04.1 LTS is released, which is scheduled for July 21st. | 08:37 |
Aleksejs | also all my bluetooth devices doesn't work etc. I need to roll back | 08:41 |
memphisto1 | Aleksejs, when go to /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections youll see your connections and VPN connections too. | 08:42 |
memphisto1 | do the cat of your VPN connection | 08:42 |
memphisto1 | and there is a section | 08:42 |
memphisto1 | [vpn-secrets] | 08:43 |
memphisto1 | there you'll find you password | 08:43 |
Aleksejs | there's no vpn-secrets | 08:44 |
memphisto1 | can you please share the ll /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections | 08:45 |
Aleksejs | there is a file with my VPN, there are all settings (domain, login etc), but no password. I added [vpn-secrets] and one more line: password=mypassword, didn't help | 08:46 |
memphisto1 | [vpn-secrets]IPSec secret=XXXXXXXXXauth password=XXXXXXXXX | 08:47 |
memphisto1 | those sections depend of type of the VPN connection | 08:47 |
Aleksejs | I think the problem is with permissions | 08:48 |
memphisto1 | it should be root:root | 08:49 |
Aleksejs | I noticed one thing: connection to VPN via nmcli doesn't work without sudo anymore but it worked before. It shows a permission error. Probably, network manager also doesn't have permissions to edit those files | 08:50 |
Aleksejs | no, it's not | 08:52 |
Aleksejs | I created a new VPN connection with some random settings, I made sure I choose to store a password, and then I checked a new file - no password line, no vpn-secrets section | 08:53 |
Aleksejs | It must be a bug with network manager | 08:53 |
memphisto1 | that's to many bugs on your PC | 08:53 |
Aleksejs | there were none till this morning "update" | 08:54 |
Aleksejs | that's why I want to rollback but I don't think it's possible | 08:54 |
acheronuk | what updates installed? | 08:57 |

BluesKaj | Hi all | 12:21 |
Smurphy | Morning | 12:28 |
BluesKaj | hey | 12:33 |
Aleksejs | Hi, it's me again. I ran apt-get upgrade and then apt-get install plasma-desktop, and all my problems magically disappeared, except one | 12:46 |
Aleksejs | My bluetooth headphones are visible in BT manager but I cannot choose them as playback device in audio settings | 12:46 |
hateball | Aleksejs: This is still on 14.04? | 12:47 |
Aleksejs | yes | 12:47 |
Aleksejs | in device preference settings my headphones are inactive and I can't make them as playback device | 12:49 |
BluesKaj | Aleksejs: check alsamixer and make sure they aren't muted | 12:50 |
hazamonzo | Hey gents. Anyone have any issues with kubuntu being a bit sluggish. Im thinking it *could* be graphics driver related | 12:50 |
hateball | hazamonzo: Describe your problem in detail | 12:51 |
Aleksejs | BluesKaj: it's not even there | 12:53 |
BluesKaj | oh sorry that's true about 14.04 | 12:56 |
BluesKaj | check your line ctl then Aleksejs | 12:56 |
BluesKaj | hazamonzo: there's a problem with FF and adblock using a lot of resources, just discovered that yesterday on Xenial | 13:00 |
BluesKaj | I dumped adblock, it was the culprit | 13:01 |
hazamonzo | BluesKaj: Interesting. Im using AD with Chrome | 13:02 |
hateball | yes well, is your system "sluggish" even when not running Chrome? | 13:02 |
BluesKaj | I'm willing to put up with a few ads for the sake of memory and cpu headroom | 13:02 |
hazamonzo | hateball: Its a case of switching windows, , expanding windows ect | 13:02 |
hateball | Also µBlock is very resource friendly | 13:02 |
hazamonzo | Also i will get little freezes when switching windows that can last a couple of seconds | 13:03 |
hateball | hazamonzo: you can toggle desktop effects with alt+shift+f12 to see if that is the issue | 13:03 |
hateball | hazamonzo: what manner of GPU/driver do you have? "lspci -k", look for the VGA stuff | 13:03 |
BluesKaj | I'd use cherome except that the addressbar fonts are too small to read on a large monitor/tv | 13:04 |
hazamonzo | hateball: Looks like switching off desktop effects has already had an improvement on UI's in Chrome | 13:04 |
hazamonzo | 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 4th Gen Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 06) | 13:05 |
hazamonzo | 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GK106GLM [Quadro K2100M] (rev a1) | 13:05 |
hazamonzo | Im worried about messing ith the default graphics driver for this laptop after the pain I had on a previous installation of Kubuntu and issues with the "card switching"? | 13:05 |
BluesKaj | oh a hybrid gpu system | 13:06 |
hazamonzo | BluesKaj: Oh yes.... :) | 13:06 |
hazamonzo | Im surprised you forgot with all the issues I've had with this laptop in the past and asked for help in here! :D | 13:06 |
hateball | hazamonzo: have you tried the driver from PPA? | 13:07 |
hateball | to enable nvidia card | 13:07 |
hazamonzo | hateball: On a previous installation I have but not this one | 13:07 |
hateball | "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa && sudo apt update && sudo apt install nvidia-367", reboot, go into nvidia-settings and pick desired card. if everything goes as expected :p | 13:07 |
hazamonzo | I was just happy that the UI loaded | 13:07 |
hateball | but hybrid GPU is unfun stuff, so one cannot be too sure | 13:08 |
hazamonzo | hateball: Risky!. I like it! | 13:08 |
hateball | hazamonzo: if it fails, you can just purge nvidia-367 | 13:08 |
hazamonzo | hateball: I'll take a look after I finish working tonight. Can't destroy my machine today with my deadlines :) | 13:08 |
hateball | hazamonzo: Good luck :) | 13:08 |
BluesKaj | yeah , best not to fool with a system that works | 13:09 |
hazamonzo | hateball: Haha thanks! | 13:09 |
hazamonzo | But the desktop effects thing has certainly helped a lot already! | 13:09 |
hazamonzo | Thank you | 13:09 |
hazamonzo | Although I do miss wobbly windows from my old desktop days.... :) | 13:10 |
hateball | well it just means you're using the intel card which is too weak to handle it | 13:10 |
hateball | and since you have an nvidia card in there it would be good to get it working | 13:10 |
hateball | that said, I have an even older intel gpu in this machine, and there's no problems using desktop effects that I can tell | 13:11 |
hateball | oh well ! | 13:11 |
* Smurphy has to say that in general, the Intel Chipset GPU is way better for Desktop work-stuff than the NVidia. | 13:25 | |
Smurphy | I tend to disable all the Fast graphic controllers (Ati and NVidia if I have a hybrid system). | 13:26 |
Smurphy | And if I can do that in the BIOS/EFI - in there. | 13:26 |
BluesKaj | some prefer the higher graphics mode be it nvidia or amd, despite the short battery life | 13:32 |
Smurphy | higher graphics mode ? For what ? | 13:36 |
Smurphy | When playing a game, I can understand it. | 13:36 |
Smurphy | But for everything else, it's just a waste of energy. | 13:36 |
BluesKaj | well I made sure there no hybrid graphics in the laptop I bought a few yrs ago, just for the reason they are a pita on linux | 14:01 |
