alkisgGood morning lotuspsychje, hi all! :)06:12
alkisgI just filed https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/1733776. I wonder, is it just me or is that really annoying? :)06:13
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1733776 in update-manager (Ubuntu) "Request to display the package name along with the synopsis" [Undecided,New]06:13
aienaI am on kubuntu 16.04. But the issue I am experiencing is a more generic issue. My xapian databases are not being generate properly causing a kdeinit5 crash. As a result synaptic also crashes. Running update-apt-xapian-index06:14
aienacrashes with a 'ValueError: could not convert string to int' from python how I resolve this?06:14
aienaerr I mean synaptic also crashes because of the xapian database06:14
aienais there a way to cleany regenerate all xapian databases fresh06:15
aienanot sure how this actually works.06:15
alkisgaiena: what's using xapian in kde? It's not preinstalled in ubuntu/ubuntu-mate anymore06:15
alkisgSoftware center was using it in 14.04, but it's not preinstalled in 16.04 as they switched to gnome-software06:16
aienaalkisg: I dont know maybe installing synaptic install xapian06:16
alkisgI have synaptic without xapian06:16
aiena*installed06:16
alkisgTry to remove it and see; cancel it of course06:16
lotuspsychjealkisg: a screenshot would be nice to that bug06:16
aienaI dont know what is using it06:16
alkisglotuspsychje: good idea06:16
aienaalkisg: how do I restrict search to installed packages only06:17
alkisgaiena: apt purge --dry-run --auto-remove apt-xapian-index06:17
aienaalkisg: ah it is plasma-muon the kubuntu package manager which is not part of KDE by default06:18
aienaand some plasma-discover too06:18
alkisgOK, so you do need it06:18
aienaone minute let me pastebin06:19
alkisgNah I was just wondering if you can completely remove it06:19
alkisgIf you want to use plasma-muon, you can't...06:19
aienaalkisg: http://paste.opensuse.org/view/raw/69b6fb5306:21
aienaI dont want plasma-muon I use the terminal for all package management needs06:21
aienaI wonder why libopencv would use it06:21
alkisgaiena: there are other things there like software-properties-kde etc, so don't remove it06:22
aienaand libgles1-mesa06:22
alkisgWhat's the exact output of `sudo update-apt-xapian-index` ?06:22
alkisglibgles etc are just installed in your system without a dependency, and autoremove prompts to remove them06:22
aienaalkisg: is it bad to run this with sudo -i?06:23
alkisgI.e. apt purge --dry-run --auto-remove will also show them06:23
alkisgNo, it's fine if you run sudo -i <enter> update-apt-xapian-index06:23
aienaalkisg: http://paste.opensuse.org/view/raw/01bb411606:24
aienaI ran this command because it was suggested as a fix for synaptic crashing with xapian database error. On further investigation I noticed that kdeinit5 was crashing and it had the xapian lib in the stack trace so I though they are related.06:25
alkisgaiena: try the suggestions in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt-xapian-index/+bug/102147406:26
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1021474 in apt-xapian-index (Ubuntu) "update-apt-xapian-index crashes with Unpickling Error in init() invalid load key" [Undecided,Expired]06:26
alkisgI.e. deleting a corrupted file there06:26
aienaalkisg: this isz the kdeinit5 stacktrace http://paste.opensuse.org/view/raw/32f117d406:26
alkisgaiena: or this: sudo update-apt-xapian-index --force06:26
aienano -force also gives valueError06:27
alkisgOr this: sudo update-apt-xapian-index --verbose --force --batch-mode (and if it still crashes paste the output)06:27
aiena*--force06:27
alkisgI meant after the first suggestion which you didn't read :D " Try deleting the file and then running update-apt-xapian-index again: $ sudo rm /var/lib/apt-xapian-index/cataloged_times.p"06:27
aienayes it is not crashing anymore it is doing some work06:28
aienaand it seemed to rebuild the index06:29
aienathank you06:29
alkisgIf that fixes it, the next question is, "why was that file corrupted? do you have more corrupted things in your installation? "06:29
alkisgE.g. disk/file system failures...06:29
aienahmm no06:29
aienanot that I know of06:29
aienahow do I check06:30
alkisgTry sudo apt install debsums; sudo debsums -s06:30
alkisgThis will at least check things under /usr06:30
luxioDoes anyone have any recommendations for ebook readers on Ubuntu?06:30
aienaalkisg: ok debsums -s is running it is not giving any output I'll tell you when it completes06:32
alkisgaiena: if it doesn't produce anything, it's a good sign06:33
aienaok so far no output still. Let it complete.06:33

ZSkyHow is this possible? Jessie was released in April 2015, how can a 14.04 be based on jessie?10:57

alkisgZSky: https://askubuntu.com/questions/151698/which-version-of-debian-are-ubuntu-lts-releases-based-on11:00
alkisgZSky: short explanation, "lts releases are based on debian testing"11:00
alkisgNot on debian stable.11:00
tomreyn'sid' would be debian unstable, however11:01
alkisgtomreyn: the next answer there, "This appears to have changed recently per https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LTS: "Starting with the 14.04 LTS development cycle, automatic full package import is performed from Debian unstable""11:01
tomreynoh, i didnt read that page, sorry11:01
ZSkyalkisg: so 14.04 is based on jessie testing?11:02
alkisgZSky: actually, on jessie unstable...11:02
tomreynjessie / sid, so jessie unstable11:03
ZSkyalkisg: then 14.04 *should* feature systemd, right?11:03
ZSkybut it doesn't11:03
ZSkyit still uses sysvinit11:03
ZSkywhy?11:03
alkisgZSky: not all package imports are automatic. Big packages like kernel, xorg, systemd versions are decided by the ubuntu team11:03
alkisgIt depends on their level of stability at the time of the lts release11:04
alkisgOr, at the expected efforts for 5 year maintenance11:04
ZSkyalkisg: so at the time of 14.04 LTS, they decided not to include systemd?11:04
alkisgIf it doesn't have systemd, yes. I haven't checked 14.04 recently.11:05
tomreynalso i'm not sure whether systemd was the default init system at merge time when jessie was still unstable.11:05

madghosthello all11:38
grandfsoHello everyone, what is the default desktop in 17.04 ? I did hear this was going to be gnome, but looks like unity ?11:38
tomreynalexas: on a side note, 'formatting' is really a process which refers to flexible and not so flexible 5.25 and 1.44 inch floppy disks. nowadays, what you do is more adequately described as creating a file system on a block device (which can be a raw disk, a partition, a logical volume, a mapped block device etc.)11:39

madghostapt-get update doesn't work, I can't install anything11:43
ChaiTRexmadghost: Does web browsing work?11:44
tomreynmadghost: ping is an ICMP protocols. if, for example, you're on a wireless LAN with a captive portal, you may not be eble to do much other than that.11:44
madghostChaiTRex: this is server only with console, without GUI11:44
madghosttomreyn: not through captive portal, clear Internet thru ZyXEL router11:45
madghostwith cable connect to router11:45
ChaiTRexmadghost: You can use `telnet google.com 80`, then type `GET / HTTP/1.0` and press Enter twice. See if you get HTML back.11:45

oerheksliefer, use 'nomodeset' > https://stackoverflow.com/questions/45227045/ubuntu-14-04-with-kaby-lake-intel-hd-63014:23
oerheks!nomodeset14:23
ubottuA common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter14:23
oerheksbut this might limit the use of multi monitors14:23
oerheksafter install, install intel-microcode from the driver menu14:24
lieferintel-microcode should be installed14:24
lieferbut as i write the device is listed as UNKNOWN which i find kind of odd.... maybe its ok14:24
lieferill try nomodeset hang on14:25

tomreynbased on https://ark.intel.com/products/126684/Intel-Core-i7-8700K-Processor-12M-Cache-up-to-4_70-GHz the GPU should be device id 8086:3e92, can you verify this?14:28
tomreynliefer: ^14:28
liefertomreyn, sec, i pasted info from xorg.log in my askubuntu question14:29
lieferill check14:29
tomreynalso run this: sudo update-pciids14:29
tomreyn(might help with the 'UNKNOWN')14:29
lieferhow can i see the device id? It doesnt seem to appear in 'lspci'14:30
tomreynlspci -nn | grep VGA14:30
lieferyeah its 8086:3e9214:31
tomreynso run: sudo update-pciids; lspci -nn | grep VGA    # and see whether the lspci output changed14:31
lieferaah i ran the update-pciids before checking the device id :S14:32
liefercant tell if it changed14:32
tomreynwhat does 'ubuntu-drivers devices' output now?14:33
lieferit has 5 lines for the nvidia card (modalias, vendor, model, driver, driver) and 1 for the igpu: == cpu-microcode.py == driver : intel-mimcrocode - distro non-free14:35
tomreynokay, so i guess it's no longer unknown14:35
tomreynmaybe try the i915.alpha_support=1 boot param, too14:36
tomreynactually post dmesg + Xorg.*.log  from a non-modified (no extra boot params) boot first of all.14:37
liefergotcha, saved both14:38
lieferwill try the nomodeset and post them afterwards14:38
lieferim pretty sure i tried the alpha_support earlier with no luck, but ill give it another go14:39
Dishonoredhello, guys i recently installed a font, and opened leafpad(text editor) and tried changing a text to that font using font warp, its shows correctly in the preview but doesn't work in the actual text. i also tried the font on gimp it doesn't work.14:39
tomreynwith a 4.14.0 kernel i suspect the alpha option would have no effect with this hardware.14:40
lieferoh shit X started \o/14:40
lieferwith terrible resolution though lol14:40
Dishonoredand the problem is only when i paste the text and not while typing.14:41
lieferhmm the device still shows up as UNKNOWN and i dont have any other resolutions to chose from under "display" :S14:41
lieferokay.... removed nomodeset and it still starts X14:43
lieferwith proper resolution14:43
tomreynliefer: https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=coffee-uhd-graphics states "When booting the Ubuntu 17.10 stock kernel with i915.alpha_support=1, 4K was working, OpenGL acceleration present, and Vulkan also working"14:44
lieferyeah i saw that one, which is where i got the i915.alpha boot option from14:44
tomreynso what's different between starting without nomodeset now and previous boots?14:45
tomreynprobably just the updated pciids14:46
akikliefer: it uses the vesa driver now14:46
oerheksmaybe intel-microcode dit the thing?14:46
oerheksc/did14:46
lieferupdated pciids and the alpha boot param yeah14:46
lieferill try without the alpha boot14:47
tomreynoh you used the alpha booot param now, i wasnt aware14:47
lieferakik, hmm?14:47
akikliefer: when you use nomodeset with intel graphics, it'll use the vesa driver. look into /var/log/Xorg.0.log14:48
liefertomreyn, still works without the alpha boot param14:48
lieferakik, ah right, gotcha14:48
lieferbut im not using nomodeset anymore14:48
lieferseems like updating the pciids did the trick14:48
lieferat least on kernel 4.14.114:49
tomreynmy understanding was that the ucode was already installed and the system had been rebooted before we started looking into this, so if that assumption is correct (can you confirm, liefer?) that leaves us with just the the update-pciids as an explanation14:49
lieferintel-microcode was already installed yeah14:49
tomreynand you had rebooted after installing it?14:50
lieferyes14:50
lieferim pretty sure it was actually installed during installation of ubuntu14:50
tomreynyes, probably. thanks. i suggest to update the askubuntu.com post then with what we learnt.14:51
lieferim tempted to do a re-install, staying on the stock kernel and updating pciids14:51
liefernot entirely sure i understand the consequences of running 4.14.1 that was manually installed14:51
tomreynyou can downgrade the kernel14:51
tomreynin fact you probably still have the stock kernel installed and just need to remove the manually installed one14:52
lieferhow? :) when i update grub it looks like i still have the old kernel14:52
tomreynhow did you install the newer kernel?14:52
liefergot the deb files from the ubuntu repository14:53
lieferyeah, from here: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/14:53
lieferguess i can just uninstall them14:54
tomreynso identify the relevant packages using "dpkg -l 'linux*' | grep ^i' and sudo dpkg --purge them14:54
tomreynor better "sudo apt purge <package1> <package2 <...>"14:55
tomreynwhenever i run into this http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ url i get annpyed by the misnomer that "kernel-ppa" is, since this is not a PPA.14:58
lieferok so the stock kernel is no good with updated pciids and no boot params14:59
tomreynliefer: try trhat witht he alpha option14:59
lieferworking on it :)14:59
lieferthat works \o/15:04

DarkonHi all, my Situation: installed ubuntu-server 16.04 setup xserver and i3wm using startx, now i installed or wanna install nvidia-38x. First question: how can i get the driver without lightdm or better what is that huge dep-list for? any resources are welcome. Second Question(probably wrong channel): after installing the full nvidia-38x my system freezes after lightdm login or (lightdm disabled) startx drops back to shell (xorg17:43
Darkoncrash). any advice?17:43

Mathisenstartx depreciated ? no more xorg-xinit ?17:46

aweralkisg:  Yes it does . Output is "Wed Nov 22 13:49:36 PST 2017"21:49
TJ-awer: you need to check how the PHP is sending the command to the system? I'd expect it is NOT calling a shell - it will be forking and calling an exec() function21:50
awermy goal would be to create a reverse nc shellback to my system..21:50
TJ-awer: in other words, you need to call the shell yourself "sh -c 'cmd=/bin/nc -v -z 192.168.0.105 1-100 2>&1 |& /usr/bin/tee -a /var/www/test/test.txt'  "21:50

awerTJ-: that didnt work either :-(21:53
aweralkisg: yes. its legal, its a capture the flag exercise on a demo box from within my home LAN21:54
TJ-awer: check on the server; look at the logs, see what the report is. Ideally, see which function the PHP is using to execute the command since that probably parses the command to prevent shell escapes just like this21:54
alkisgHrmmm ok. I guess the problem is that the browser doesn't uurlencode &, and you need to encode it manually.21:54
aweri think the firewall is bloacking aprticular outbound connections so i want to use nc to do a local port scan to see what port where open.21:54

mentalitait has nothing to do with ubuntu it has to do with firefox quantum22:52
Portable_CheeseAnd now the GUI is frozen except for my mouse22:52
Portable_CheeseAnd has been for a half hour22:52
latenitementalita, but quantum is default for ubuntu?!22:53
mentalitalatenite: quantum is just the latest version, did you try downgrading and installing it?22:53
latenitementalita, or is quantum some weird spin off?22:53
latenitementalita, no how do I do that?22:53

geniiIt's an addon for Firefox22:57
geniilatenite: From https://github.com/firebug/firebug/ in part, .. "On November 14, with the launch of Firefox Quantum (AKA 57), support for old school extensions will stop in Firefox. That means Firebug will no longer work for many developers. However, the work continues in the great Firefox devtools. You can try Firefox devtools by updating your release browser or downloading Developer Edition."22:57
geniilatenite: Which they give links to.22:58
latenitegenii, are Firefox devtools the same as firebug?22:59
