eshwaahello, I was getting some help with network issues earlier. I have a 4 day fresh install on a new personal storage NAS. After a couple days of being left on I lost all network connectivity00:05
eshwaaWhat steps can I take to reset all network connections, aside from reinstalling the OS?00:06
blackfloweshwaa: you can use ifdown and ifup to reinitialize the network interface00:08
eshwaaAh yes, I tried doing that but it didn't resolve the issue00:10
blackfloweshwaa: so how is this loss manifested? dns issues? routing? no ip address?00:11
eshwaaI'm not able to access anything in my network or external00:12
blackfloweshwaa: do you have an ip address?  ip addr show   will tell you00:13
tripelbblackflow, oops. the shasum256 is entirely wrong. boo00:15
eshwaaNo, it doesn't look like it, blackflow00:16
blackfloweshwaa: is it dhcp or static configuration? is dhclient running?00:18
blackfloweshwaa: and btw, does "ip link show"  list your network interface? which one is it?00:18
hazi121blackflow you think its now allowing me to get some website info because of permissions ?00:19
blackflowhazi121: I have no idea00:19
tripelbblackflow, since 2 downloads have exactly the same hash I SUPPOSE IT IS OK. i HAVE NO IDEA WHY THE "CORRect hash" line is wrong. (aka good enough for me.)00:21
blackflowtripelb: not necessarily, could be corrupt file on the mirror. the shasum has to match the one in the digest file00:22
eshwaaHere is what I get with ip addr show https://pastebin.com/1vQC3EG700:23
blackfloweshwaa: no carrier, is that thing plugged in?00:24
eshwaaYeah, lights blinking on the machine and the modem00:25
blackfloweshwaa: well, sounds like hardware issue. you can check it additionally with "ethtool eno2"00:29
blackfloweshwaa: what chipset is that btw?00:30
gregleshwaa, Reboot your router and modem and see if that don' clear it up..00:30

thatlizdudeso i got into Ubuntu, but after a while, I was looking at some articles, I found the different flavors, and I got a question - why would I have to reinstall my whole OS just to switch desktop environment? isn't there a better way?01:00
bazhangthatlizdude, no need, just apt install kubuntu-desktop etc and select from the login window01:01
thatlizdudeoh cool01:01
bazhangthatlizdude, xubuntu lubuntu and a others as well01:01
thatlizdudeand will that do the same thing as installing a different ISO?01:01
bazhangthatlizdude, you mean a fresh install entirely?01:02
thatlizdudei mean will this do the same trick as reinstalling the OS with different environment?01:02
bazhangthatlizdude, not really, there will be some overlap of vertain apps01:02
thatlizdudewhat do you mean overlap01:03
bazhangeditors, irc clients, and so on01:03
thatlizdudeso will that command also install these apps?01:03
bazhangones that are native t kde xfce and so on01:03
bazhangyes01:04
thatlizdudeso why's there so many ISOs when you could have one and go from there?01:04
thatlizdudejust for a quick start?01:04
bazhangmost people dont want to fresh install for every single dE out there01:05
YankDownUnderIn some instances - having a single ISO, but wanting two completely different and conflicting "Desktop Environments" can be more cause for chaos (i.e., Gnome and KDE)01:06
bazhangk3b will run fine in gnome01:07
bazhangas will rhythmbox in kde01:07
thatlizdudeoh i don't really need it, i was just wondering01:08
bazhangapart from limited hdd space, it's not really an issue01:08
thatlizdudeif i really need to switch from the default Ubuntu, let me know :D01:08
thatlizdudei just liked the KDE environment on a picture, looking a bit more modern01:09
bazhangyou could always virtual machine an iso for a test run of a pure kde01:09
thatlizdudebut i guess i just need to get used to default Ubuntu01:09
thatlizdudeyeah01:10
YankDownUnder...now my WindowMaker feels "old"...(sobbing quietly) ;)01:10
bazhangif you dont like unity on default gnome, then install gnome-shell01:10
thatlizdudeit's all right, i'll probably get used to it01:12
eshwaaThanks for your help earlier, blackflow. It's embarrasing but after looking at the spec sheet for the motherboard, two lan ports weren't precut on the motherboard backplate. It doesn't explain why that port died so soon but the other lan port is working now.01:13
thatlizdudei really don't use it that much, mostly just for hosting a Discord bot :P01:13

YankDownUnderGuest2308: This is the #ubuntu support channel - supported by volunteers and hobbyists - what questions might you have?01:25
edgy1he left01:26
YankDownUnderAh...well...at least I know my fingers can still type this morning. :)01:26
thatlizdudeso we got Chromebooks in school, i don't know if some of you guys can help with that, but if i got some favorite games, is there a way to create like a DNS that points to a website? I don't have a great knowledge about these things...01:32
thatlizdudeor would it be possible to just host a website with all the .swf games on it from Ubuntu?01:33
YankDownUnderthatlizdude: Not easily...and I would tend to think that the school would be savvy enough to put the kybosh on "internal" stuff - as well as "proxies"...unless they're completely idiotic...which I highly doubt...01:35
thatlizdudeYankDownUnder: well if you get the ip of totaljerkface site, it works. so the ip works, and the totaljerkface.com doesn't, so it's really not some high-tech system. but they blocked the ip, so i created a dynamic DNS at noip pointing to the ip address of totaljerkface.com, and it worked :D01:38
YankDownUnderthatlizdude: Then you're doing fine. Personally, and especially making a living doing administration and consulting, I'd not offer anything in the realm of information because that goes directly against my code of ethics and code of conduct. I'm sure the school had you legally sign a document stating something about their networks/systems...so, going against that is literally breaking the law...but I digress...01:40
thatlizdudeah, nevermind then01:41
thatlizdudei'll just use the unblocked sites01:41
thatlizdude(that work so far :D)01:41
YankDownUnderthatlizdude: You've resolved the issue, so you should be happy for yourself.01:41
thatlizdudewell i didn't come up with the idea01:43
thatlizdudesomeone just gave me the ip of the site, and i did some research on how this works01:43
thatlizdudei really don't know a lot about it :P01:43
YankDownUnderthatlizdude: Not the point - you instituted the knowledge to achieve an objective. You gained the objective.01:43

toastieSo im having sound issues on my zenbook 3, anyone have any expertise on ubuntu sound issues? or know where I can start digging? Im new to ubuntu on a laptop01:52
YankDownUndertoastie: Can you be more explicit in your description, please?01:54
toastieYeah so i installed ubuntu 16 on an asus zenbook 3. The only things that don't work out of the box is the sound. On the built in speakers the sound is either on or off. And on headphones while volume control works, there is constant static noise in the headphones.01:55
YankDownUndertoastie: Something to read and follow: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshootingProcedure01:56

toastieHey its me again back with asus zenbook 3 sound issues02:42
cfhowletttoastie: thousands of people come through this channel daily.  do you seriously expect us to remember you?  assume we don't, state your issues in detail and in full.02:43
toastieYeah I was typing more haha, should have put it in one sorry. So im pretty sure this is a situation where I'll need really specific configuration in my /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf file. Problem is the codec for my sound card is ALC295 and I cant find that anywhere02:43
toastieDoes anyone know anything about installing settings for codecs that aren't in the official lists?02:43
cfhowletttoastie, sudo apt install ubuntu-restricted-extras     will grab most02:45
toastieTo give backstory, I just got through the sound troubleshooting process to no avail. and i'm pretty sure its the fact that that file isn't set up for my specific sound card02:45
cfhowlettin that case, codecs are irrelevant.   you have to get the set up done first02:45
toastieumm ok, so im running off this list. https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/sound/hd-audio/models.html and my model isn't in there. Where would I start with getting it set up with my specific model? Im not new to linux but new to laptop hardware with linux.02:47

cfhowletttoastie, curious: did you do a sound test during live boot?  if not, please do so02:50
toastieGood idea, i'll try that next. Yeah all these issues are basically exactly whats happening to me, different brand laptops but same sound card.02:51
toastieAt the risk of sounding like an idiot, do we ever have any good guess on how long these fixes take to implement? Obviously i'll keep trying to fix it myself but...02:52
cfhowlettlinux-hostile hardware?  replacement is likely the sanest option02:53
cfhowlettI've not done a sound card replacement on your model.  swapping parts on my dell m3800 is quite easy however.  Search the netz for your make/model official documentation.02:55
toastieSound card replacement on this would probably be a nightmare. USB sound card could be an option. I do have 90 days to return the laptop I suppose02:56
cfhowlettdo the live boot test first.  if that flies, this should be fixable.  you could replicate the functional alsa settings in your installed OS02:57

cfhowletthappy2help!04:52
YankDownUnderdarkzek: Ok...well, you COULD install a "display manager" - like lightdm or xdm - and have either of those perform an "autologin" - otherwise, since the server is NOT setup for graphical usage, it's basically "login when it's done starting up" - if all of that makes sense...04:52
kang0Anyone can help me for mint installation?04:53
kang0In my new laptop04:54
cfhowlettkang0, not here.  sorry.  use mint support for mint issues.  This is ubuntu only04:54
cfhowlett!mint | kang004:54
ubottukang0: The Ubuntu channels can only provide support for Ubuntu and its official flavors, since other distributions and derivatives have repository and software changes. So please use their dedicated support venues, for example: Linux Mint (#linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org), Kali Linux (#kali-linux), and LXLE (#lxle)04:54
darkzekYankDownUnder Yeah I was hoping not to have to do that to keep resources free for actual computing instead of a dm.04:55

geigerCounterHello! I am having a few problems with networking. For the main one, if I connect to a wired network with no internet connection and a wireless connection with an internet connection, my computer stops being able to access the internet. For another, whenever I roam out of wifi range, try to change networks, or close my laptop for too long the WPA supplicant crashes. Finally, I am also having problems with the06:11
geigerCounterCinnamon desktop environment. Whenever I close the laptop or resume from a sleep - which is supposed to be disabled, but isn't - the Cinnamon taskbar is gone. Also, sometimes my desktop reverts to the default Unity wallpaper on login.06:11
geigerCounterThe not being able to connect to the internet issue is especially pressing as I need to be able to access my local media server headlessly via ssh while keeping a download active.06:13
geigerCounterI'm using Ubuntu 16.04.06:13
lotuspsychjegeigerCounter: updated to 16.04.2? wifi chipset?06:14

Ben64AlbertJB: maybe ask in ##windows ?07:12
YankDownUnderAlbertJB: Ah...right...quite possibly Win7 isn't recognising it because of the MBT...the partitioning layout as well...07:12

* YankDownUnder looks at the Ubuntu server sitting in the corner running on an ancient HP laptop07:25
YankDownUnderUm...yeah.07:25
geigerCounterMmm, the heat issue is the main thing that would be an issue, that's why I'm asking for advice and looking to cut out things that'd be less than ideal.07:25
geigerCounterIt should be possible to run fairly cold most of the time, especially if I can figure out boot-on-LAN07:26
Stinky_FeetAlbertJB: Perhaps this might be of interest: https://github.com/t-d-k/LibreCrypt07:27
geigerCounterAs per being slow, the computer was high-end for its day and has a quad-core i3 that I do believe is clocked at 2.8GHz07:27
Ben64lol07:28
YankDownUndergeigerCounter: The little HP that sits in the corner - which has a 4tb and a 6tb attached to it - runs quite "cool". I can't cook an egg on it, that's for sure. Never has an issue. I blow the dust out of the fans every few months. It sits and does it's job - file server and imap server (and sniffer)07:28
geigerCounterWhich is why it overheats so very much all the time. ( It's "just powered on and nothing else" temp is 50 degrees Celsius, if you do literally anything it goes up to 80 )07:28
geigerCounterBut underclocking it might work.07:29
Ben64it doesn't overheat because it's so awesome, it overheats because it's crap07:29
geigerCounterBen64: I know this. The fan is anemic, the heatsink is pathetic, and it's way overclocked for the size of the laptop, the fan vents are too small because it's allegedly "form-factor" and the battery gives me anxiety.07:30

geigerCounterBen64: But I mean, I literally don't have that much disposable income even. I have a desktop PC that might be preferable, but the harddrives in it are terrible.07:34

geigerCounterI mean... I'm the local equivalent of this basically. I get everyone's crap because everyone who knows me knows I'll take it and have no money.07:42
geigerCounterBut I mean, I don't want to keep it if I can't even use it for a server, but I don't want to get rid of it without getting some money out of it.07:42
geigerCounterAny amount.07:42
YankDownUndergeigerCounter: Ah. Well. Since you can't donate it to yourself (you COULD, but that's a paradox) you could get creative and do "art" with the parts...07:43
geigerCounterWell I mean... hmm. I'll probably just use it for a thin client tbh.07:43

k1lif it was a slow CPU back then, its not getting better with age. as a rule of thumb: a dualcore cpu that is 64bit is still enough of usual office usage today. older cpus are just painfully slow08:39
Anon2018I like Lubuntu a lot.08:39
sebsebsebKiyoshiakira: gecko as in the Mozilla web rendering engine ?08:39
k1lCrysp: use ubuntu (since you ask in #ubuntu :) )08:39
sebsebsebKiyoshiakira: you could try play on linux for example,  or  there's something else wine bbased to i think08:40
Anon2018moreove the latest Lubuntu that is 17.04 works perfectly with even such an old laptop. Except for that cpu usage.08:40
sebsebsebKiyoshiakira: probably need to do some configuring work yourself either way, to get your program working, if it can work in wine08:40
Crysp@Ben64 well yeah lol, but I'm wondering if there are other distros with packaged tools specific for web/soft dev08:40
CryspBen64: ^08:40

k1lCrysp: then ask in ##linux08:40
Cryspk1l: ah okay (Y)08:41
k1lCrysp: and a lot of developers are fine with working on ubuntu. i dont know what you think you cant do with it. just because its not preinstalled but its installable from the repos should not be a blocker for someone calling himself a developer08:42

jojerobut I have a question08:42
jojerohow to shift to nvidia? xD08:42

BluesKaj'Morning folks10:39
blackflowBlackVenom: well, if it's a storage drive you don't have any requirements. I'd recommend GPT partitioning, leave 1st megabyte empty (so start the first partition at 1MiB), that's it.10:40
BlackVenomI heard its best to use GPT as it's bigger than 2TB10:41
BlackVenomWhy leave the first 1MB?10:41

BlackVenomthis is getting interesting10:47
BlackVenomWhat do you mean by emergencies10:47
blackflowBlackVenom: it's extra unused space that you can use at any time should you need it, for whatever reason.10:49
BlackVenomyou mean to extend the partition if needed?10:49
blackflowBlackVenom: plus, it's a good rule of thumb not to use full disk, especially in raid situations, as not all vendors have the same number of sectors for the same proclaimed size, so having the effective partition a bit smaller allows easier migration/resync to another drive, should the need arise.10:50
blackflowBlackVenom: not extend but use it for something else10:50
BlackVenomthanks blackflow10:52
blackflowBlackVenom: you probably won't ever need all this for simple home storage drives, but it's a good practice that'll pay off should you ever need a more production oriented set up.10:53

wook_blackflow: https://snag.gy/26wFJk.jpg11:19
wook_firefox is finally cooperating11:19
wook_and it's strange, it gives a link for chrome:// while firefox is having issues opening11:20
blackflowwook_: and if you click "stop script"? does it continue working normally?11:20
wook_sometimes11:20
wook_it does it sometimes and sometimes works perfectly, everytime works differently11:20
blackflowwook_: copy the profile directory somewhere and start firefox to have it create a fresh one11:20
wook_how to do that?11:21
xmediVirtualbox  bringt  mir die fehler meldung und die VMs laufen nicht mehr. habe das ausgeführt    ..sudo  /sbin/vboxconfig   lief trotzdem nicht11:21
blackflowwook_: the profile directory is in ~/.mozilla/firefox/, a directory ending with ".default"11:21
bazhangxmedi, #ubuntu-de for german11:21
blackflowwook_: I meant "move" instead of copy, you have to remove it from ~/.mozilla/firefox/  but make sure you've backed it up as it contains your browsing history, stored data, extensions, everything11:24
wook_so where do i move it to?11:25
=== Anon is now known as Guest63218
blackflowwook_: wherever :)11:26
Guest63218hello... I am using Ubuntu Budgie 17.04. Can I install and use Lubuntu Desktop on it?11:26
Guest63218would it cause any conflicts with the Budgie desktop?11:27
wook_so i then do what, open firefox again, and then copy and paste the contents of that directory back into whatever it creates again?11:27
blackflowwook_: I think you can even rename it into "oldprofile.backup" or whatever like that, instead of moving away11:27
blackflowwook_: no, the idea is to remove the current profile so that firefox creates a new one. if the problems stop, that means your old profile is contaminated somehow with something11:27
wook_how do profiles get contaminated?11:28
wook_firefox itself seems like a contaminate sometimes :D11:28
Guest63218hello.. plz help me..11:28
k1lGuest22425: should not conflict11:28
pynkiblackflow, any reason not to start firefox with -p to handle the profile issues?11:28
Guest63218k1l, sure?11:29
pynkiseems much more convinient for me11:29
k1lGuest63218: you can install several desktops on ubuntu and switch them on the login screen11:29
wook_pynki: so then go to terminal, type "firefox -p" then? and it should do the same thing?11:29
blackflowpynki: what does -p do? nothing in the help about it11:29
Guest63218k1l, several means? maximum, how many?11:29
k1lGuest63218: there is no maximum11:30
Guest63218I am asking specifically about Ubuntu Budgie.11:30
k1lGuest63218: i answered that already.11:30
pynkiblackflow, -p should open the profile manager11:30
blackflowwook_: broken/faulty extensions, even if you disable them, they could've corrupted something else in the profile11:30
blackflowpynki: ah, --ProfileManager, I see it11:30
Guest63218k1l, thanks a lot. I'll install Lubuntu. I sometimes need a very lightweight DE. Lubuntu suits my needs.11:31
blackflownever used it, I traditionally just remove the profile when it starts doing that.11:31
wook_yeah it's strange, sometimes when i open firefox they start disabled, other times they look disabled, but still cause issues. even though i get javascript errors turning off flash seems to fix them. but then later i get similar errors again11:31
Guest63218thanks a lot. bye.11:31
pynkiblackflow, me too. but its easier to create a new one for testing without deleting the old one11:31
pynkiwook_, using something with flash in it is the first error :P start with a fresh profile and then go step by step installing addons - they might conflict with each other11:33
Rumbleshi, is there anything you need to do to reconfigure grub so that it will update on both sda snd sdb every time there is a kernel update?11:33
pynkihad some issues with thunderbird and foxyproxy and another addon that conflicted even it had nothing to do with proxies whatsoever11:33
RumblesI have /dev/sda1 configured as my boot partition but /dev/sd2 and /dev/sdb2 are a RAID 1 partition with my root partition. I wanted to have sda1 and sdb1 as a RAID 1 with /boot on it, but 14.04 barfed during install, so I just created 2 partitions and loaded grub on to one of them. But going forward I would want it reinstaling on both disks every time11:34
Rumblesis that possible or is it better to just convert /dev/sda1 and sdb1 in to a RAID1 partition now the server is setup11:35
FleuvHi my internet started timing out quiet a lot since i upgraded to 17.04, network-manager showed me this error a couple of times "systemd-resolved[0x55d77bba3c30]: Failed: Timeout was reached"11:36
FleuvMore I don't really know what to do.11:36
blackflowRumbles: by "boot partition" do you mean bios_boot or space where you mount /boot ? Because if the latter, you can have that under raid1 without a problem.11:37
RumblesFleuv, that error is just showing that your DNS server timed out I think... that's probably not a cause but a symptom11:37
RumblesI meant bios_boot11:37
Rumblessorry blackflow11:37
blackflowRumbles: you don't need to update that on every kernel update11:38
blackflowRumbles: that only contains the grub bootloader itself, the kernel stuff goes to /boot11:38
Rumblesyeah but /boot is mounted from the boot partition isn't it?? (14.04)11:38
blackflowRumbles: you'd have to manually "grub install" to each bios_boot partition only if something radically changes to the bootloader but I don't recall ever needed to do that after initial installation, or disk replacement11:38
FleuvRumbles, okay so something happened and my network timed out because of it.11:38
blackflowRumbles: no, it's not11:38
blackflowRumbles: you can have /boot on a mdadm raid1 partition just fine11:39
blackflowso every kernel update writes to /boot which is then mirrored with mdadm to all four disks11:39
blackflowsorry, both disks, I misread you had 411:39
FleuvThis is so strange, now it takes like 1-2 minutes to load google.com while I have no problem sending a message.11:40
Fleuvhere on irc11:40
Rumbleswhen I tried to install the boot partition on a RAID1 volume my install produced loads of errors, then I was stuck in a boot loop after completing the install ala: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mdadm/+bug/133564211:40
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1335642 in mdadm (Ubuntu) "mdadm runs into infinite loop and prevents initrd/initramfs phase to finish on boot" [Undecided,Confirmed]11:40
blackflowFleuv: there seems to be quite a few problem reports wrt DNS on 17.04.11:40
Fleuvokay, better keep an eye on the updates11:41
blackflowRumbles: that's an anomaly. there's otherwise nothing wrong with having /boot on a raid1 partition, I have it on many servers11:42
Rumblesok, I thought I had done it previously....11:42
blackflowFleuv: one workaround is to force a DNS server thorugh /etc/systemd/resolved.conf11:42
RumblesI guess I can just wipe the current bott partition and convert that in to a RAID1 and then install grub on that?11:42
Rumbless/bott/boot/11:42
blackflowRumbles: grub and kernel11:42
blackflowRumbles: kernel first11:43
Rumblesok11:43
blackflowbecause grub is looking into /boot to find kernels and initramfs in order to configure the grub.cfg11:43
blackflowso you first need a kernel and initramfs there11:43
_val_pynki: I don't want the extended partition.. but it creates automatically11:48
_val_and I can't find in the config where it is doing so.11:48

chandlerHello folks. I've just upgraded 16.04 -> 16.10 -> 17.04 and I have a few odd environment issues now. The first (and oddest) is that my prompt is getting munged in graphical sessions; the trailing space is being trimmed off of it. It's set in my .zprofile as: export PS1='[%n@%m %~]%# ' but when I open a terminal, there's no space after the prompt (and indeed it's missing from the environment variable)12:20
scottjlbrowser: for kicks, add Allow All after line 31 37 and 44. restart cupsd. see if you can get in12:21
chandlerThe second issue is that I've disabled the gnome keyring ssh agent because it does not handle modern keys, but while the ssh-agent is running, $SSH_AUTH_SOCK is exported-but-empty. I found https://askubuntu.com/questions/851679/switch-to-openssh-agent/858989#858989 - is it really only possible to fix this by modifying something in /usr/lib ?12:22

bonsaitreeMustaKrakish, :$13:53
bonsaitreeokay :D13:54
DarekDeoDelvien, xev does not print anything when I hover mouse over window, except moving mouse. that probably means no key is stuck. lotuspsychje also terminal from blender does not print any errors. tried amdgpu but the problem remains13:54
MustaKrakishbonsaitree, don't forget to reboot13:54
bonsaitreeMustaKrakish, k13:55
DelvienDarekDeo: out of ideas, unless you are using an odd wm/de13:56
lotuspsychjeDarekDeo: test on a new user perhaps, see if its not a config thing?13:57

bonsaitreeMustaKrakish, Nope, the problem remains.13:59
bonsaitreeMustaKrakish, It has to do with the Linux itself, i tried on Windows and i got ~ 48 Mbit/s, the ISP says it will give me a max. of 50 Mbit/s, so it's excellent.14:00
MustaKrakishbonsaitree, so it works, just not well?14:01
bonsaitreeMustaKrakish, Yes, and the whole browsing process is slow and laggy.14:01
tykaynhey folks, is it also crash prone to put ubuntu to sleep14:02
Delvienbonsaitree: try this: sudo dpkg-reconfigure resolvconf  (then reboot)14:02
tykaynjust at wake up time, everything freezes14:03
Delvienbonsaitree: or are you talking about "browsing" ubuntu itself14:03
Delvien.14:06
bonsaitreeDelvien:I was talking about browsing the web through a browser. It is sluggish and unresponsive. I executed the command, rebooted, and it's still the same.14:06
bonsaitreeBut i love Linux :)14:06
Delvienbonsaitree: what does speedtest show?14:07
bonsaitreeIt is behaving like my link is capped at 20 Mbit/s. It will max. at 20 and that's it.14:07
Delvienbonsaitree: are you on wifi?14:08
bonsaitreeDelvien, .14:08
DarekDeolotuspsychje, on guest user it works fine, any idea what settings I have changed? :P14:08
bonsaitreeDelvien, Yes14:08
ducassebonsaitree: which chipset?14:08
raspberryhello14:08
Delvienbonsaitree: if youre using Nm, check the connection information, what speed?14:08
bonsaitreeducasse, Advanced-N 620014:09
bonsaitreeDelvien, Where do i check the speed?14:09
raspberry?14:09
Delvienbonsaitree: "connection information"14:09
raspberry음...14:10
bonsaitreeDelvien, It is dynamic, 78 Mb/s / 65 Mb/s /14:10
bonsaitreeetc14:10
Delvienbonsaitree you had mentioned windows, are you comparing to the windows wifi speed ?14:12
bonsaitreeDelvien, Yes14:12
Delvienbonsaitree: im thinking its something with the wifi driver14:12
bonsaitreeDelvien, I think that too, since i was removing bin files...14:12
bonsaitreeDelvien, The thing is, i have installed the driver again, but the problem remains.14:13
Delviengoogle your make/model of your laptop and wifi card + ubuntu, see if anyone else has that problem14:13
* Delvien awaits !google spam14:13
lotuspsychjeDarekDeo: any luck?14:15
DarekDeolotuspsychje, Delvien solved it (more or less) it is related to sleep and wake of laptop. I've turned off and on laptop again. Sleep mode does something with my input settings14:15
bonsaitreeDelvien, Interesting thing that i am noticing now (after the execution of the commands you recommended) is that when i click on a hyperlink on a site with the middle click, and open it afterwards, it says "There is no internet connection", and the browser loads the page then, not previously.14:17

oerheksopssssss, "sudo apt-get -y purge some-kernel-package" .. replace some-kernel-package with the package name like linux-headers-etc14:25
oerheksopssssss, to remove old kernels easily, just use sudo apt autoremove14:26
fffuuuLoerheks: Is synaptic a gtk application?14:27
oerheksfffuuuL, yes14:27
fffuuuLyeah alright thank you14:28
fffuuuLInstalled it14:28
fffuuuLlooks way better14:28
fffuuuLI assume `discover` is some sort of KDE application that offers similar funtionality for new users14:29
fffuuuLAnother question, I use youtube-dl with mpv a lot on my Archlinux system, i keep youtube-dl updated via a "AUR(Archlinux User Repository)" package called "youtube-dl-git", what option would i have to have a similar package as debian-package?14:32
fffuuuLIs there a similar repository for ubuntu that offers that functionality14:32
k1lyoutube-dl14:33
k1l!info youtube-dl14:33
ubottuyoutube-dl (source: youtube-dl): downloader of videos from YouTube and other sites. In component universe, is extra. Version 2017.03.26-1 (zesty), package size 838 kB, installed size 4678 kB14:33
FuchsI think the question was more to have an up-to-date version from git14:33
Fuchswhich tends to not be a thing. Youtube-dl has an integrated updater which can override the package management, but of course that is tricky because a package update might then downgrade it14:34
fffuuuLYeah14:34
k1lif you want other builds than this from the repo, then look out for a PPA or if the developer offers ubuntu .deb pacakges or repos.14:34
scottjlor just build it from git?14:34
fffuuuLThis version is pretty much outdated14:34
fffuuuLYeah youtube-dl detects where it got installed from14:34
fffuuuLI guess i will use the python installer then14:35
scottjluninstall the official package then and install it from git directly?14:35
fffuuuLscottjl: I would prefer to do it via the package manager if possible14:35
scottjlor email and harass the maintainer to update?14:35
fffuuuLYeah i know about the other ways for youtube-dl but this is rather a general question if it is possible to get *-git packlages14:36
k1lfffuuuL: there are no git packages. you can either install .deb packages, use repos that ship such .deb packages (like PPAs or other 3rd party repo) or you build it yourself from source. or you use snap packages if there are such already14:37
fffuuuLAlright, thank you14:38
scottjlthe problem with youtube-dl is it's updated almost daily some times. if the maintainer doesn't have the time to keep on top of that it falls behind fast. you're far better off installing a volatile package like that yourself and maintaining it yourself.14:38
scottjlif it's important to you14:39
k1lfffuuuL: and if you mean "are there bleeding edge packages in the ubuntu repos" then no, ubuntu is a stable release distro. all packages get freezed and are not upgraded to new versions after that (except security or bugfix patches).14:39
fffuuuLk1l: Yeah i know about that, my idea was that there is maybe a external repository that offers that, like the webupd8team14:41
scottjlfffuuuL: https://www.ubuntuupdates.org/package/getdeb_apps/xenial/apps/getdeb/youtube-dl14:41
scottjlbut it's easy to install from the git repo, just clone it, sudo make install14:42
k1lfffuuuL: yes, but that is a 3rd party repo then. we cant support that in the way. that is why i said you can look up if there is a PPA or if the program dev offers a repo or daily builds14:42
scottjlyou might need to sudo apt install pandoc  as a prereq14:42
k1l!ppa | fffuuuL14:42
ubottufffuuuL: A Personal Package Archive (PPA) can provide alternate software not normally available in the offical Ubuntu repositories - Looking for a PPA?

sim642How can I still upgrade?15:32

ubottusim642: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades15:32
naccsim642: vivid has been eol for a while now15:32
sim642I know, that's why I'm trying to upgrade15:33
bonsaitreepavlos, The iwlwifi.conf file contains the line that disables the N mode. What should i do next? Those 2 additional lines --- > sudo modprobe -rfv iwlwifi15:34
bonsaitreesudo modprobe -v iwlwifi ?15:34
sim642Why doesn't the tool just upgrade just as it would upgrade a non EOL version?15:34
pavlosbonsaitree: yes, the first removed the module, the second re-inserts it15:34
bonsaitreepavlos, thanks15:34
oerhekssim642, you had the time to upgrade.15:35
naccsim642: because it can't do that, as the upgrade path is unsupported and unmaintained15:35
naccsim642: please read the faq15:35
bonsaitreepavlos, Fatal: Module is in use. Should i make a hardware stop to the wireless card?15:35
sim642nacc, I mean why doesn't it upgrade to 15.10 first which has been perfectly possible15:35
naccsim642: 15.10 is also eol15:36
sim642oerheks, blame the user...15:36
sim642nacc, I know but why shouldn't upgrades by single versions still work?15:36
sim64215.04 -> 15.10 -> 16.0415:36
naccsim642: they do, just not using the release upgrade tool15:36
naccsim642: as release upgrade is for supported releases15:36

sim642It's not15:36
nacc... it is15:36

sim642the tool works fine for upgrading single versions when they're both still supported15:37
naccsim642: yes15:37
sim642why would the same upgrade procedure break if they're EOL15:37
bonsaitreepavlos, Should i execute the line that re-inserts the module first, and then reboot?15:37
sim642the procedure is the same15:37
naccsim642: becuase the archive chagnes15:37
naccsim642: no, it isn't.15:37
sim642the archive?15:37
naccsim642: vivid and wily are no longer available from the ubuntu archives15:37
naccsim642: so the upgrader can't use the paths it knows about15:38
pavlosbonsaitree: the option to disable N is in the iwlwifi.conf so just reboot. I wonder what changed and it worked before?15:38
sim642nacc, so basically I can just reinstall?15:38

naccsim642: or fresh install15:42
naccsim642: and that is quite literally part of that wiki page15:42
DArqueBishopWhether you like that answer or not, it's still a perfectly valid comparison.15:43
bonsaitreepavlos, I think that we are close, since there is an interesting error on the second line: https://paste.ubuntu.com/24414432/15:43
sim642DArqueBishop, my point is that 15.04->15.10 was a working upgrade, completely feasible and intended procedure. Only difference being that now after a few years for some reason the very same procedure doesn't work. This logic makes no sense15:44
DArqueBishopsim642: it was already explained to you. The procedure doesn't work because 15.10 is EOL and is no longer available in the archives.15:45
DArqueBishopIt's the equivalent of having a Windows 3.11 install and being upset that no one sells Windows 95 anymore.15:45
sim642DArqueBishop, THE archives? it's not like 15.10 has been indefinitely deleted from the face of this planet15:45
ioriasim642, you could  do a 15.04 -> 15.10 ,  ... but not recommended ; so i suggest a fresh install15:45
JRansomedsim642: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades15:46
sim642JRansomed, and?15:46
JRansomedThat might get you archives to upgrade to something still supported.  I was trying to remember how I upgraded when I waited too long.  ;-)15:46
naccsim642: there is a sense of ubuntu archives, that are mirrored everywhere and are officially 'ubuntu'15:46
sim642and old-releases somehow isn't THE?15:47
naccsim642: it's a different archive15:47
naccsim642: it's an oldrelease archive, clearly15:47
JRansomedAn archive to help old releases upgrade15:47
naccsim642: and now it's not *the* archive15:47
sim642what is THE archive?15:47
naccsim642: please just get over it, you let your system go eol and now are dealing with the consequences15:47
naccsim642: http://archive.ubuntu.com/15:47
sim642also, the fact that the files are under a different subdomain makes it impossible to get the files automatically for the same upgrade procedure automatielly?15:47
naccsim642: plus allt he mirrors15:47
sim642My only question is, why can't the upgrade tool upgrade to files now in the old-releases archive just like it would've upgraded to the same version if its files were in the main archive?15:49
scottjlbecause it can't.15:49
KaiForcesim642: you would be better off expending this energy on your new install instead of complaining to people who both don't care and can't do anything about your complaint.15:49
JRansomedA good question.  But, yeah, it doesn't source from them.15:49
scottjlyou do realize this is the community support channel right? not like we're officially on canonical's payroll.15:50
KaiForceprobably because if it didn't work people would expect it to be supported15:50
DArqueBishop... because it would be easier and safer to backup your data and reload a new support install than it would be to support multiple upgrades to unsupported EOL releases.15:50
JRansomed@kaiForce, very true15:50
DArqueBishopThat, and the whole "EOL = unsupported" deal.15:50
DArqueBishops/support install/supported install/15:50
naccsim642: the short answer is everything that was just said, i'd expect. eol upgrades are not supported so if it fails, there is no support (except maybe a nice person here). Having the release upgrader (implicilty the supported release upgrader) do that, would give a bad impression of the upgrade path when it fails15:51
sim642the upgrader happily popping up every startup telling me to upgrade and then telling me it can't isn't giving any better of an impression15:52
naccsim642: yes, because your *entire* release is unsupported15:52
naccsim642: again, it's just like if you booted win3.1 at this point15:53
naccsim642: anything it says is, IMO, the same as /dev/null15:53
naccsim642: you may not like the analogy, but it's accurate, afaict15:53
sim642If it can't do the upgrade, why does it suggest to me that I should try to click the upgrade button to get 16.10 if it knows it won't work15:53
scottjlbecause it was suggesting it years ago and you ignored it then. so just continue to ignore it now15:53
ioriahas been reported that running '  do-release-upgrade -d  ' on 15.04 takes you to 15.10 ...15:54
sim642it doesn't15:54
ioriasim642, have you tried ?15:54
sim642it goes to the latest one, past the LTS15:54
sim642yes15:54
ioriasim642, with the -d flag ?15:54
sim642I had to cancel and revert the sources changes15:54
DArqueBishopsim642: the developers probably didn't expect that someone would try and use the tool to upgrade after even the next version had gone EOL.15:54
sim642yes15:54
naccsim642: beuase you opted into the development release upgrades and didn't pay attention15:54
naccsim642: so don't do that pay attention next time15:54
Mr_Panhave Xubuntu LTS 5 years support  ?15:55
sim642nacc, what?15:55
naccMr_Pan: yes15:55
naccsim642: to run 15.04, you had to upgrade to non-lts, and that means you need to upgrade every 9 months or so15:55
naccsim642: you chose not to, clearly15:55
naccsim642: and the -d flag is different15:56

kkunjiHow can I set a memory limit for a process and its children (summed, not restarting for each), and without sudo rights?  Preferably more fine grained that number of pages.  Oh, and I need it set before the process allocates anything, so I'm not sure that prlimit is viable because time passes between the process starting and then running prlimit with the pid.16:03

lilililililililiI see16:08

lilililililililianyone here using their machine for that?16:09
lilililililililisadly no16:09
faugusztinlililililililili: you could temporarily move the GPU from other system there, configure the BIOS to ignore errors like a missing GPU, then install the OS, remove the GPU, reboot, hope it boots :)16:09
scottjljust get a cheap $20 video board. problem solved.16:09
faugusztinlililililililili: and when you add a GPU later, you just install the correct driver16:10

elichai2Infiltrat0r: you have any ideas for me? (about DE and my problems with unity/gnome)18:13
sbur1I have wifi recognized, but to the which I am unable to connect. Any suggestions?18:14
StClawsWell, just wondered if anyone knew if they did any work on the wireless. So much problems in 16.04. And many others had that too. As for me, I have an Intel Wireless 3165 and had to turn off 11n to even get it to work at all. But the signal is much lower than Windows on the same machine, and it still hangs and slows down terribly now and then.18:14
naccStClaws: right, that's a far more specific question, at least18:14
selsperuse wired where possible18:14
naccStClaws: did "they" do "any work"? yes18:14
naccselsper: why?18:14
Sparrow_sbur1, what wifi chipset18:14
selspermany reasons18:15
selspermore secure, faster, lower latency18:15
sbur1Atheros TP-Link18:15
Sparrow_Find Network Card Chipset:  "sudo lshw -C network"   in a terminal it will show the networking card/chipset18:15
naccselsper: ok ... but clearly in the context of a user asking about wifi -- saying 'use wired' isn't support.18:15

sbur1Sparrow_ If you walk me through the change, cuz I'm a Noob. And what will nohwcrypt=1 do for me?18:19
StClawsI understand wifi cards are not easy to make fully working, since they are made for Win & Mac and basically have to be reverse engineered in many cases. But it would be so nice to have a smoothly working Linux. Trying very hard to escape from Apple-land.18:19
Night_it has been a few years snce that was the case18:20
Sparrow_sbur1, atheros has issues with wifi encryption and we are turning off hardware encryption in favor of software mode, I also disable ipv6 etc18:20
Night_modern works pretty well18:20

slyrusright, resolv.conf is not running here either.18:48
pavlosbonsaitree: I saw that, seems it does not pick your firmware which should be in /lib/firmware/18:49
naccslyrus: it's possible that systemd-resolve is somehow writing to the resolvconf directory by default18:49

naccRandom832: ubuntu-gnome-desktop iirc19:32
naccjohnfg: again, it's continuing19:32
naccjohnfg: don't confuse canonical and ubuntu19:32
johnfgSo, what would the command be to install the unity desktop, so I can give it a try?19:32
mg__just do a sudo apt-get install unity- and tab tab until you get what you want19:33
naccjohnfg: i think it's just `sudo apt install unity`19:34
mg__nacc, yeah that's right http://packages.ubuntu.com/zesty/unity19:35
johnfgOne of the nice things about a vm...I can easily trash it and start over, before going into production as a real server!19:35
johnfgThanks for the help guys!19:35
naccjohnfg: although i will also say -- why are you installing desktops on a server19:36
johnfgnacc: I knew that would be coming, I always get that question.19:36
naccjohnfg: it's ok ifyou have a good reason; just not everyone does, so i like to poke on it19:36
johnfgWell, my main server now is debian, and has been for quite a few versions, at least back to lenny.19:36
BluesKajthere are purists about ... ;-)19:37
johnfgAnd I've always had it as a desktop too, not, perhaps, being able to afford a dedicated server.19:37

DWSRHey all, I'm having difficulty moving a folder from one path to another on the same device. I'm getting "Access Denied" as root. What can I look at to try and identify why I'm not able to move it.20:58
tgm4883DWSR: same server (not network attached storage)? Different filesystems? Immutable?21:01
DWSRtgm4883: SMB mount.21:01
latino31im having an issue with freezing with ubuntu 17.04 ..i did not have issues with freezing in ubuntu 16.10...is there error logs that I can look at that may help21:07
Bashing-omlatino31: Try in a new terminal ' journalctl -f ' To "watch" // maybe 'top' running  will show something .21:10
kostkonlatino31, the logs in /var/log and the systemd journal with journalctl21:10
DWSRHey all, I'm having difficulty moving a folder from one path to another on the same device (SMB mount). I'm getting "Access Denied" as root. What can I look at to try and identify why I'm not able to move it.21:11
tgm4883DWSR: did you mount it with inproper credentials?21:14
naccDWSR: do you have write access to the SMB filesystem?21:14
latino31kostkon, the systemd journal is in /var/log?21:14
DWSRnacc: Permissions on the fs are fine, I have it mounted with the appropriate creds. I am able to move other files and folders around on the fs no problem, including other files and folders that were in the same path as this one.21:14
tgm4883DWSR: check logs on the samba server?21:15
DWSRtgm4883: Not possible.21:15
naccDWSR: can you give, in a pastebin, an example of a working and failing case?21:15
naccDWSR: with all output21:15
kostkonlatino31, it's probably in binary form stored somewhere. use journalctl to access it.    man journalctl   for its manual page21:16
tgm4883DWSR: sounds like it's failing any time he tries to write to the SMB share21:16
tgm4883DWSR: which honestly sounds like a credentials issue21:16
tgm4883network share and can't write as root? More often than not you're not mounting it with credentials that have write permissions21:17
DWSRnacc: https://gist.github.com/DWSR/1dc7af99a281bd825d95d2734f51f64d21:19
DWSRnacc: The second command moved some folders located in the directory, but obviously not the one that is emitting the error.21:19
tgm4883DWSR: can you cp that file, rather than mv it?21:20
naccDWSR: and they are not quite the same -- e.g., can you show that you are able to write to /mnt/ownclouddata/admin/files/3-Archived/ with mv for another path?21:20
tgm4883actually, why is it trying to copy it somewhere you didn't tell it to?21:20
WDProblemNot sure if this is the right place, but I tried formatting a WD passport drive with Ubuntu's disk tool for use as a general drive, but now my Windows install can't read it. Did I do something wrong? The partition is NTFS and the table is MSDOS21:21
DWSRtgm4883: Because I'm a moron and didn't redact the third line? :P21:21
DWSRnacc: touching a new file inside the target dir should tell me whether I can write or not, correct?21:22
tgm4883DWSR: my question still stands on the cp vs mv21:22
tgm4883DWSR: correct21:22
naccDWSR: i'd say so, yeah21:22
tomreynWDProblem: this sounds like it should have worked. if you're seeking help with reading a device on windows which works fine on ubuntu then you'd best head over to ##windows or something21:23
DWSRable to successfully write to it.21:23
tgm4883DWSR: Permission denied could also mean you can't delete the old file21:23
nacctgm4883: oh good point21:23
tgm4883which is what I'm trying to determine21:23
tgm4883since a cp is going to just write. A mv is going to write and then delete21:24
tomreynWDProblem: you could show a 'sudo parted -ls' if you'd like to double check on the partitioning you did.21:24
DWSRWhen trying to cp, I'm getting an error about "no such file or directory". The directory is "./.@__thumb/file.jpg"21:24
tgm4883I'm not sure what would happen if you tried to mv a file you couldn't delete. Would it delete the file from the destination? IDK21:24
tgm4883DWSR: are all the files that have this issue have special characters?21:25
DWSRtgm4883: Not sure, I only received the one error.21:25
tgm4883s/files/paths/21:25
B0Tfather1986use the absolut path can solve the Problem21:25
ChaiTRexDWSR: It simply avoids the problem and reports permission denied.21:26
B0Tfather1986i think21:26
ChaiTRextgm4883: That's easy to test with files in /bin or something like that. It simply avoids the problem and reports permission denied.21:27
tgm4883DWSR: it doesn't give you more than one error? Does it return to a prompt?21:27
DWSRtgm4883: no and yes21:27
tgm4883ChaiTRex: yea I know, I'm actually sitting in a F5 class currently21:28
WDProblem@tomreyn Alright, I guess I'll go there. I can store files on it just fine from Linux but Windows doesn't even recognize it21:28
tgm4883ChaiTRex: yep, just permission denied21:28
DWSRtgm4883: Interesting. PowerShell is reporting that the item is in use.21:29
tomreynWDProblem: good luck21:29
tgm4883DWSR: interesting, are you copying it from a SMB share, or to a SMB share?21:29
DWSRtgm4883: Within the same SMB share.21:29
tgm4883DWSR: some sort of media indexer/app on the SMB Share?21:30
DWSRtgm4883: Nope.21:30
tgm4883DWSR: I'm guessing this is some sort of NAS that has apps and such21:30
DWSRtgm4883: You would guess incorrectly.21:30
tgm4883that seems to be the new thing now21:30
DWSRThis is an Azure Storage account.21:30
tgm4883DWSR: ah21:30
tgm4883DWSR: Have you tried not copying those special files?21:31
naccwell, if PowerShell (windows) is saying the file is in use, you probably can't move it21:31
naccnot sure21:31
tgm4883that would be my guess as well21:31
DWSRnacc: PS runs on Linux.21:32
DWSRnacc: I'm using PS Core directly on the Linux box.21:32
tgm4883DWSR: sounds like azure is doing stuff with the file21:33
DWSREh, it seems to only be the thumbs folder here.21:33
DWSRSo I'll just ignore it.21:33
tgm4883DWSR: yep, probably some file browser in azure21:34
naccDWSR: ok, you're in the ubuntu support channel, and powershell is not an ubuntu package ...21:34
naccDWSR: so ... have to make assumptions about what you're running21:34
tgm4883nacc: I think that was just a reference21:34
nacctgm4883: ack21:35
DWSRnacc: Yeah, was originally trying this under bash21:35
DWSRnacc: I swapped to PS because I know that sometimes it emits better errors.21:35
