I am trying to setup suspend on close lid for my laptop, but only when on battery power. When on cord, I just want it to keep running as this is normally when I am hooked up with my docking station. [03:01] jayze: in normal case, energy options in ubuntu should be managing hibernate [03:02] True but I was hoping for more granular control of behavior between plugged in and on battery power. [03:03] I have used linux off and on for many years. I finally have a dedicated machine that I can run linux on fulltime again. However it is a laptop that I am using for school. I actually got a docking station for it and plan to use both modes. [03:03] jayze: perhaps playing with dconf-editor can bring more tweaking? [03:03] Really happy with how mature linux and ubuntu have come. [03:04] I never have used dconf-editor before but I might give that a try. [03:04] jayze: yeah ubuntu is very neat these days [03:04] !info laptop-mode-tools | jayze maybe more tweaking here also [03:04] jayze maybe more tweaking here also: laptop-mode-tools (source: laptop-mode-tools): Tools for Power Savings based on battery/AC status. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.70-2ubuntu1 (zesty), package size 80 kB, installed size 367 kB [03:05] ah! thank you. That might help me alot [03:05] jayze: wich ubuntu version did you have? [03:05] I am actually running ardvark. [03:06] I know its not release yet but I felt it was close enough. [03:06] I will be probably making another install on the laptop of LTS sharing the same homedirectory structure for my personal files just for peace of mind. [03:06] the laptop is not anything much except for the fact that it has plenty of ram and a nice big ssd. [03:07] lenovo t430, but it was in perfect condition with the 1600x900lcd and it was free to me. [03:07] just had to provide an ssd :P [03:09] yep, looks like dconf-editor was it [03:11] jayze: for 17.10 you can idle in #ubuntu+1 for issues mate [03:11] k :P [03:12] Only been up on the machine since this afternoon but it seems quite stable. [03:26] With 0 person in #ubuntu+1, where can I get help with Ubuntu 17.10? [03:27] I want to report an issue, but event #ubuntu-bugs won't help it. [03:27] I'm totally confused.

[03:59] thank you [03:59] anyways what does 'lo' means? [04:00] kristhian: the local loop - internal link . [04:00] nergar: Look for tomcat* in /etc/init.d. If there is such file, then your tomcat package is sysinit. [04:00] nergar: If you have it installed already. [04:02] yookoala: yup, it is indeed in init.d but xenial uses systemd does it not? what do I do now? [04:03] nergar: When using systemctl command to control services, it will fallback to sysinit script if a service file of the name is not found. [04:04] neat! [04:05] and when are the packages updated to use systemd? just curious bout how dev side works [04:06] nergar: I'm not sure :-P. I guess it would probably remove the rc script and install the systemd unit file. [04:07] nergar: if you do a dist-ugrade. [04:08] nergar: I'm talking about my exprience with Ubuntu and other distro with systemd. Not sure how it works underneath.

Some services are clever enough to not run in chroots, for others you need this policy wrapper [10:15] dchotas: which chipset is this? [10:16] hi [10:16] I have made a package with checkinstall [10:16] but the deb is binary only [10:16] how can i make a "dev" deb? [10:16] alkisg, No, I haven't heard of that before. I'll read into it, thank you very much. [10:16] np [10:17] ducasse, qca9377 [10:19] dchotas: then not sure, sorry. you could try an older/later kernel. [10:21] anyone? [10:21] Ben64: Do you have a .deb with that? I just patched the installed version and run «dpkg-reconfigure bcmwl-kernel-source», but I guess this gets overwritten by the next update. [10:23] timkofu: Did you try «apt-get source ‹package›» ? [10:23] the problems never end. now grub won't start. "error: file '/boot/grub/i386-pc/normal.mod' not found" I know what caused this, and I know how to get past it, but once I'm booted up I don't know how to make the fix permanent [10:25] set root=hd0,msdos5 and set prefix=($root)/boot/grub then insmod normal and insmod will make it load grub [10:25] I boot ubuntu, run sudo update-grub and it goes thru without errors, but after reboot it's the same problem. [10:27] when I deleted my swap partition sda5 the other partitions 6 and 7 became 5 and 6, so grub is probably looking in 6 [10:33] anyone know how I can make it stick? [10:38] Sterist: I'm not sure but I think you should have ended that line with normal not with insmod [10:38] insmod normal, normal [10:39] yes typo, that's what I did lol [10:39] okay [10:40] still hammering my keyboard for a solution =/ if anyone has ideas I'd love to hear em [10:41] Sterist: #grub you could try there as well. [10:42] my ubuntu is lazy [10:42] how do i troubleshoot it [10:51] When searching for how to force all traffic through a vpn, the recommendation is the remove the existing default gw and add a new one. But how will the VPN itself work if all traffic is routed through the VPN? [10:54] Hey folks [10:56] would reinstalling grub have potential to cause now problems? [10:56] btw I did check with the grub channel, still no responses :( [11:00] Hey BluesKaj o/ === allizom1 is now known as allizom [11:01] hi dchotas === SimonNL is now known as SimonNL_afk [11:11] lspci | grep VGA commands returns two cotrollers [11:11] which one should I use and install the drivers for [11:13] arunkumar413, pastebin your lspci output so we can have a look [11:14] BluesKaj: https://pastebin.com/uR7yykAR [11:16] BluesKaj: seems like AMD has not released the drivers for 16.04 Ubuntu [11:21] arunkumar413, is this a desktop or laptop? [11:21] BluesKaj: laptop [11:22] hmm, seems you have some kind of hybrid gpu system which I've never seen before [11:26] BluesKaj: may be one is a processor builtin and another is an external graphic card [11:28] check the additional drivers manager [11:30] How can I see when this package has been updated for the last time? Package: libxinerama1 (2:1.1.3-1) [11:32] arunkumar413: You have an APU style GPU / CPU setup [11:32] need to install FGLRX [11:32] computer2000: see /var/log/apt/history.log* === allizom1 is now known as allizom [11:33] brokencodes, we know what he has, just needs to install from the additional drivers [11:34] letting him know he doesnt have a hybrid [11:34] its an APU [11:35] BluesKaj: what should I do now [11:36] in the additional drivers dialog, you should see the option to install amdgpu drivers [11:36] in 17* fglrx was depricated, in favor of amdgpu / radeon [11:37] install the recommended driver/fglrx from the additional drivers manager , https://askubuntu.com/questions/856478/radeon-hd-7500m-7600m-series-drivers-for-ubuntu [11:37] arunkumar413,^ [11:37] BluesKaj: the additional driver doesn't list the drivers [11:37] BluesKaj: FGLRX is not available in Ubuntu 17+ [11:38] yeah, amdgpu seems to ahve replaced it [11:38] amdgpu is not auto selected [11:38] he will have to open terminal, and install with apt-get [11:39] arunkumar413, are you on 16.04? [11:39] BluesKaj: yes [11:39] wonderful [11:40] sucks, because trident gen2 is not supported before kernel 4.10 [11:41] arunkumar413, have you updated ubuntu with update manager in the last 5-6 months?
