| Shawn|i7-Q720M | Good Morning | 15:56 |
| Shawn|i7-Q720M | Anyone know if one box running lubuntu running a vnc server getting a shared connection from a laptop runnign lubuntu aswell, if the vnc box's ip address might change? | 15:59 |
| boblamont | I have a dual-boot setup on one computer and while in Lubuntu (but not in anything else), I'm unable to connect to the network. It started recently and I don't recall installing anything or changing any settings. | 17:50 |
| wxl | boblamont: what card? | 17:50 |
| boblamont | It's a Realtek 8111/8168/8411 | 17:52 |
| wxl | what's the pci id? | 17:56 |
| wxl | maybe just pastebin `lspci -nnk` | 17:56 |
| boblamont | 10ec:8168 (rev 03) | 18:04 |
| wxl | what driver you using? | 18:11 |
| boblamont | r8169 | 18:13 |
| wxl | This did work previously with that same driver? | 18:14 |
| boblamont | Yes, up until a few days ago. | 18:17 |
| wxl | hm. | 18:18 |
| wxl | what version of lubuntu? | 18:18 |
| === daoud is now known as kiaera | ||
| boblamont | 16.04 | 18:19 |
| wxl | pastebin `dmesg | grep -e eth -e r8169` | 18:20 |
| kiaera | I use lubuntu without installing it and noticed it won't play any sound | 18:20 |
| kiaera | does it mean it would not play any sound if I install it? | 18:21 |
| wxl | kiaera: possibly. possibly not. have you opened up alsamixer to see what's going on, if it recognizes your card, etc? | 18:21 |
| wxl | kiaera: also even if it's missing a driver for example, that's often a fairly simple thing to solve. | 18:22 |
| kiaera | I did alsamixer but it didn't work | 18:22 |
| wxl | what exactly happened, kiaera ? | 18:22 |
| kiaera | what do you mean? | 18:23 |
| kiaera | I opened up lasamixer and toggle the selections | 18:23 |
| kiaera | alsamixer | 18:23 |
| wxl | is it showing the right chip/card? | 18:23 |
| kiaera | I can't remember | 18:24 |
| wxl | then i'd try again | 18:24 |
| kiaera | wxl are you an admin | 18:24 |
| kiaera | who are you | 18:24 |
| wxl | kiaera: an admin of what? | 18:25 |
| kiaera | lubuntu.. | 18:25 |
| boblamont | I'm going to do the dmesg, but I wanted to mention, I checked ifconfig and there's no eth0, it comes up as enp5s0 | 18:25 |
| wxl | kiaera: i am one of the contributors of lubuntu, yes | 18:25 |
| kiaera | wow | 18:25 |
| kiaera | that's cool | 18:25 |
| wxl | boblamont: then i'd replace the eth with enp | 18:25 |
| wxl | kiaera: you can be, too | 18:25 |
| wxl | boblamont: here's another shot in the dark— try `sudo ubuntu-drivers list` and see if it gives you anything relevant to your ethernet | 18:26 |
| wxl | boblamont: hm! maybe that change in device enumerating has caused the problem. were you eth0 before? | 18:26 |
| boblamont | I believe so, that's why I checked. | 18:26 |
| wxl | ah actually i think that's the problem! | 18:28 |
| wxl | https://askubuntu.com/questions/689070/network-interface-name-changes-after-update-to-15-10-udev-changes | 18:28 |
| wxl | tl;dr switch the names in /etc/network/interfaces or disable the new naming with the various options given | 18:29 |
| boblamont | I fixed it without doing any of that, and it's still coming up as enp5s0 (but working). While reading the link, I saw that they "deleted the virtual network card" and tried deleting the entry in the connections list and creating a new one. As soon as I did that, the connection was restored. Everything else looks identical, but it works. | 18:41 |
| pavlushka | wxl: yeah, coz my one too, switches and works without any issue :) | 18:42 |
| pavlushka | http://paste.ubuntu.com/23853343/ | 18:43 |
| boblamont | thanks for the help wxl! | 18:46 |
| wxl | boblamont: you deleted the entry a la nm-applet? | 18:47 |
| wxl | cuz virtual network card is vm-specific talk :) | 18:47 |
| boblamont | Oh, I know it wasn't the same thing, it just reminded me that I hadn't tried deleting the settings. I just kept going with edit, seeing nothing amiss and being discouraged. Didn't think of just deleting and remaking it. | 18:50 |
| wxl | ah ok, great. Well that's useful to know if anyone else has the same issue. | 18:50 |
| wxl | I'm surprised I don't see more of this to be frank. | 18:51 |
| wxl | do you have any clue exactly which day this started? if so, i'd love to see your apt logs from that point | 18:51 |
| boblamont | No, I can't remember. It's basically my secondary system, so I jump onto it when I want to use something on it, then jump back off. The last time I needed it to, the network connection was working, but then I popped back and saw it wasn't. | 18:57 |
| wxl | ok well glad we got you working, boblamont. have a good day :) | 18:59 |

| RonWhoCares | Does GTK UVC video viewer come with it? or does it need to be installed separate? | 21:35 |
| wxl | hey RonWhoCares :) | 21:37 |
| wxl | I have never had to deal with UVC before | 21:38 |
| RonWhoCares | It is what I am using for creating videos | 21:39 |
| wxl | it seems like there are drivers that need to be installed? | 21:39 |
| RonWhoCares | ok | 21:40 |
| wxl | OH | 21:41 |
| wxl | so that's why guvcview is called what it's called | 21:41 |
| wxl | needless to say that's a standard part of lubuntu-desktop | 21:42 |
| wxl | but there are drivers required for uvc DEVICES to work | 21:42 |
| wxl | here's some old support pages on that https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UVC | 21:43 |
| RonWhoCares | ok | 21:43 |
| RonWhoCares | I expect Lubuntu will install what is needed | 21:43 |
| wxl | probably | 21:43 |
| wxl | i mean uvc is not new and afaik not proprietary | 21:44 |
| garywhite | My friend has a Samsung N140 netbook that he converted from Windows 7 Starter to Lubuntu 16.10, and now his CPU is displaying only 800MHz power, even though the CPU (Intel Atom N270) is a 1.6GHz unit | 22:15 |
| RonWhoCares | how do I load a program | 22:25 |
| wxl | which program? | 22:26 |
| RonWhoCares | I have to install it | 22:27 |
| wxl | which program? | 22:28 |
| RonWhoCares | ahh | 22:30 |
| RonWhoCares | I think I have it | 22:30 |
| RonWhoCares | ok | 22:33 |
| RonWhoCares | How do I make a link for the desk top | 22:33 |
| wxl | couple different ways https://askubuntu.com/questions/466395/how-can-i-create-a-quick-launcher-in-lubuntu | 22:34 |
| RonWhoCares | ok | 22:41 |
| RonWhoCares | got it | 22:41 |
| RonWhoCares | I am getting an error | 22:41 |
| RonWhoCares | ignoring file '50unattended-upgrades.ucf-old' in directory '/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/' as it has an invalid filename extension | 22:42 |
| wxl | that's not necessarily an error | 22:43 |
| wxl | it's more or less a warning | 22:43 |
| wxl | assuming you have a valid copy of it (without the -old) and have no reason for it, you can just get rid of it to get rid of the warning but it will have no ill effect | 22:43 |
| RonWhoCares | lovely | 22:44 |
| RonWhoCares | I am not sure what to think about Lubuntu | 22:48 |
| RonWhoCares | Slightly different than Ubuntu | 22:48 |
| wxl | yep slightly. mostly simpler | 22:48 |
| RonWhoCares | I'll see how this goes | 22:49 |
| RonWhoCares | I am going to get some pain meds | 22:49 |
| wxl | good luck! | 22:49 |
| RonWhoCares | Pool time | 22:55 |
| RonWhoCares | Thank you | 22:55 |
