aroonihey team; anyway to get these emojis as full color emojis in the gnome-terminal?  πŸ’―  πŸ˜€ πŸ™ 😁  πŸ’―  i know really important right? lol00:18
mittensBashing-om, I pressed f10 during startup and got to a page that looks like bios I think - I don't know what u mean by reset the boot order, I didn't see that kind of option00:20
mittensanyone can please help with specific steps?00:21
mittensI have my usb plugged in (with old ubuntu ver. saved in there)00:22
Bashing-ommittens: Each and every manufacturer implemtnts a differnt bios - and each is differnt from allothers . I can not tell you how to access and set the boot order on your specific machine .00:22
mittensI just hope I am tapping into bios00:23
mittensthat makes sense BAshing-om00:23
mittensit looked different from what I saw before00:23
Bashing-ommittens: gnerally when you boot the system in the boot splash is an advisory as to what key to press to active the bios setting utility .00:24
mittensyes I thought I tried all the options out, but I will try one more time and see if I can notice something new00:24
mittensthanks <300:25
mittensbrb00:25
Bashing-ommittens: there is only one option - whatever it may be .. like the del - F2 - F12 are some of the more common keys .00:26
mittensI'm back!00:32
mittensand you were right, it was in the bios I just didn't catch the boot order configuring option00:32
Bashing-ommittens: :) making progress .00:33
mittensBashing-om but I came back to ask, they gave me two different boot orders, one is for MIEF? and one is for LEGACY00:33
mittensrolly not meif but it was spelled like.. leif? UEFI! yes it was UEFI00:33
mittens^-^;; wish my other laptop was working but something happened to its keyboard so i keep having to log out then comeback00:34
Bashing-ommittens: Unless you have the need to otherwise, by all means go with EFI . it has some speed and partitoning advantages and is the future of computers . May as well learn it now .00:34
mittensmy question is: am I supposed to change boot order for both UEFI and LEGACY?00:35
luisgarciaalanisany of you guys using Wayland?00:35
Bashing-omnitemare: No, one or the other . EFI is suggested .00:35
mittensOH00:35
mittensok I will change the UEFI boot order to USB device first and see what happens.. thanks a bunch Bashing-om!00:36
Bashing-ommittens: Long as you are trying, I will try :)00:36
Bashing-ommittens: sometimes ( though the kernel is signed ) maybe also disable secire boot whul in bios .. and re-anable after the install of drivers ( drivers are 3rd party many times ) .00:38
edisonbulboh... secure boot... fun00:38
Bashing-omsecure boot*00:38
edisonbulbi would have preferred requiring a password just to boot up to secure boot00:41
Bashing-omedisonbulb: Acer does that pass word thing . A real pain .00:43
edisonbulbprevents evil maid attacks & lets me boot anything i want00:43
edisonbulbi think my original question got buried so I'm gonna repost: how do i disable transparency in gnome in Ubuntu 17.10? it is quite annoying and I would like everything to be a solid color (preferably the default Ubuntu grey color)00:57

kk4ewttransparency in what app?00:59
Apachezwhats the proper way to fsck during boot in ubuntu 17.04 and newer?  sudo touch /forcefsck and rebooting didnt seem to help... the file was removed but the root filesystem was never checked according to tune2fs -l01:13
edisonbulbkk4ewt: transparency in the menu bar at the top of the screen and the dock on the left side of the screen01:20
Bashing-omApachez: You can also force fsck at boot time by passing fsck.mode=force : https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd-fsck@.service.html .01:20
Apacheztnx ill try that too01:22
Stumbler_Is it safe to put a fresh ubuntu installation on my dmz exposed to the internet?01:43
edisonbulbwell i guess the solution to my problem is going to be "sudo apt install mate"01:45
mittensBashing-om WOOT WOOT WOOT01:52
mittensHallelujah!01:52
mittensI am reborn!01:52
mittensthanks again01:52
Bashing-ommittens: L) .. simple as falling out od bed wide awake - when you know . Now practice good habits and not corrupt your 'buntu :)01:56

Prairir001so i installed ubuntu with gnome and it was working perfectly for a few hours and then i restarted it and it wouldnt work. it boots straight into the desktop without any icons or backgrounds or any kindof graphical "pizaz" but i can move the mouse and see all the text and the dash. when i move the mouse over something like hot corner it works. when i click on an application it brings me to the login screen. and then i02:42
Prairir001login and its the same problem. i was getting an internal error from plymouth on the reboot just before if thats important02:42

dm_compHi, How do I disable the active of Meta/Win key in gnome (ubuntu 17.10) I've tried Tweaks>Keyboard & Mouse Overview Shortcut switched to "Right Super" restarted gnome shell. this didn't work :(02:58

infinitesumI'm having a typography issue. This is what my screenshots look like in headless Chrome (https://imgur.com/a/HxElP), as compared with on the web: https://oembed.fwdeveryone.com/?thread-id=e8RFukWTS5Wo54fBNbZ2yQ. Because the font rendering in my ubuntu is a little wonky I'm not getting accurate height values from Selenium, because there are slightly more words per line in some of the paragraphs in the screenshot even04:01
infinitesum though the CSS is identical. Any insight? I've tried everything on the web, but I'm mostly doing guess-and-check since I'm not sure exactly what is wrong about the fonts, other than they are kind of blurry.04:01

epic_nullHello. So I have an odd problem. I have a server (on old hardware) with three different ubuntu OS - one desktop, and two servers. I decided today to boot up the desktop and run some software updates, but now I get a purple screen when trying to access the servers.04:34
epic_nullI tried to run the grub-configure command, but that hasn't fixed it. Is there a good way to recover the servers from inside the desktop?04:35
Bashing-omepic_null: can you boot them with the 'nomodeset' boot parameter ? then we looking at a broken graphic's driver .04:41
epic_nullum... my instructions say to modify /boot/grub/grub.conf, however I don't seem to have one. Is it something I can create and put the setting in, or is a missing grub.conf a problem?04:53
epic_nullI remember at one point having one, as I have customized the load process, however I may have done that on one of my servers instead of the desktop...04:54
Bashing-omepic_null: A one tome edot is from grub's boot menu : e key -> boot paramater screen . At the line starting with linux and containing quiet splsh . replace quiet splash with nomodeset . ctl+x to continue the boot process .05:03
Bashing-omone time edit **05:03
jgouldSo I added a network interface to my primary box, (Let's call it USBEnet 100mbit connection) and I have my on board NIC (Onboard Enet 1000mbit connection) I want the Onboard NIC to be the default, and use the USB interface as a pipeline for my Libvirt "boxes". I have been trying to get this to work using every method under the sun, I've downloaded ifmetric and attempted to change the metric there with no success, I can't find a sett05:04
jgoulding to change the default NIC, what am I missing?05:04
epic_nuller... I see a single line starting with "linux", but I don't see anything mentioninga splash.05:04
epic_nullit also ends with "ro", but those might be options?05:05
epic_nullI tried adding "nomodeset" after "ro" and got no change in behavior05:05
Bashing-omepic_null: The line ends with ro ? then add nomodeset just before . I can believe that a server has no quiet splash parameters .05:06
epic_nullUpdate: It's not fixed.05:08
mentalitacan someone help me configure sublime for bash05:08
epic_nulland I'm honestly surprised by the purple screen. If it is normal, then it's usually not there for an entire second before I start seeing the startup messages.05:09
Bashing-omepic_null: Any hints in the boot messages in the terminal as it boots up ?05:09
epic_nullI wish, but I'm not seeing them right now. :/ That's the part I'm trying to get to.05:10
epic_nullI could reboot and tell you exactly what the lines are in the grub editor, or I can get you any info from the working desktop OS. The servers on the other hand, no hints or text.05:11
Bashing-omepic_null: Sorry. will take one sharper than I am at this time . too late my time to think this deep and involved .05:14

MannyLNJStupendoussteve, no not yet06:22

luisgarciaalanisI don't know what would look crisper 4K with fractional scaling or 1440p at 27 inches... Since I don't know how fractional scaling is implemented06:24
luisgarciaalanisand I know natively gnome can only do integer.06:25
luisgarciaalanisI am looking into buying a new monitor06:25
MannyLNJStupendoussteve, I will look at that.  It's going to be a media server in my basement but no screem06:25
luisgarciaalanisfractional scaling is so new that its hard to find technical reviews on it06:25

JoniiHey, umm, I upgraded my Ubuntu to 17.1010:55
JoniiAnd Firefox to quantum. Not sure where exactly is the problem, but all symbols are now unicode error codes on websites. Like Youtube player has unicode error symbols instead of familiar rectangle thing to indicate full screen mode and such10:56
JoniiNot sure if it's just firefox problem or what, but google searching for just firefox doesn't seem to bring up anyone else sharing this problem10:57

ThyriaenHi, i got a wiered thing that started recently - sometimes when i click on something my screen turns green like this : https://imgur.com/a/OjUgj - i have checked temperature of my parts but they are really cool everywhere - it goes away as soon as i mouseover the menu at the top - when running games it does not happen12:18
ducasseThyriaen: gpu/driver?12:20
ducasseand ubuntu version + desktop?12:21
Thyriaenducasse, i am using a RxVega with a staging kernel ( which worked for about 3 months now ), using the amdgpu driver included in the custom kernel 4.13 - running the pantheon desktop12:23
Thyriaenducasse, unfortunately i have to wait for kernel 4.15 to get released to include the DC patches so RxVega runs on it :/12:24
Thyriaenducasse, ( Ubuntu 16.04 )12:24
ducasseThyriaen: so you can't test with a supported kernel?12:29
BluesKajThyriaen, what about using the AMDGPU-PRO driver with the supported kernel ?12:37
Thyriaenducasse, yes i cannot test it with a supported kernel12:53
ThyriaenBluesKaj, amdgpu runs terrible performance wise for some reason :(12:54
BluesKajI mean the amdgpu-pro driver12:56
ducasseThyriaen: just a nitpick, but i would probably say "no, i cannot test..." ;)13:00

billythekidohello!13:17
billythekidoI'm on Ubuntu 17.10 and I would like to switch to snaps for every package that is available. What is the fastest way to do it?13:18
billythekidoso far many gnome programs are available in snaps. Is there an automatic or near automatic way to map the installed programs to their snaps and handle the installs/uninstalls? are there any risks?13:19
ducassebillythekido: no automatic way other than creating a script, and the snap names do not always match the apt package names13:21
billythekidothat's what I thought :( could be "painful"13:21
ducasseso i think you need to do this pretty manually13:22
billythekidowhat do you believe it would be the behaviour while updating to 18.04? do you think it will install the snaps for you? will it keep the standard programs ending up with dups?13:22
billythekidoI know it is highly speculative but what you recon will be the most likely policy based on past?13:23
ducassesnaps are independent of release13:23
billythekidoi think the target is when you install 18.04 to get the snap version of most packages right?13:24
billythekido(fresh install)13:24
ducasseif you have a program installed as snap now, it will still be a snap after upgrading to 18.0413:24
billythekidothat's understandable13:25
ducassebut 18.04 will still primarily use apt13:25
billythekidook that answers it I think13:25
ducasseif you want mostly snaps, look at ubuntu core13:25
ducassethat's _all_ snaps13:26
ducasseno apt at all13:26
ducasseit's not intended as a desktop system aiui, but you might learn something from it13:28
billythekidoI had a look on snaps and it seems the "standard" packages are already available: gnome-calculator gnome-calendar gnome-system-monitor gnome-font-viewer gnome-logs eog evince gedit libreoffice13:30
billythekidoit is reasonable to assume as you said that they will stick to apts for the next version (it is an LTS afterall)13:31
billythekidoI'm tempted to risk and replace with snaps13:31
ducassethere's no ubuntu-desktop, though13:32
ducasseyou should probably ask these questions in #snappy13:33
billythekidothere is gnome-3-26-160413:33
billythekidoyou are right13:33
billythekidoworth pinging them just to hear their thoughts13:33
billythekidothanks a lot for your input ducasse :)13:34

Neo1Job for apache2.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status apache2.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.13:37
doug16kNeo1, did you run the command it mentioned? it usually tells you why in that output13:38
Neo1when I do sudo systemctl restart apache2, I'll get this error13:38
Neo1wait now check13:39
ducasseNeo1: it literally tells you to run 'systemctl status apache2.service'13:39
alkisgbillythekido: just a user's opinion though, canonical has started a lot of things like upstart, unity, lightdm, mir etc etc only to be semi-abandoned later on....13:39

ducassealkisg: and flatpak is a pretty serious contender, appimage less so imo...13:41
adrian_1908Neo1: use `journalctl -xe`, you probably made a mistake in your config.13:42
ThyriaenBluesKaj, yes - i tried the amdgpu pro driver - and its performance in games is horrible compared to the open source amdgpu driver13:42

NitrigaurUbuntu 17.10, fully upgraded, upgraded from 16.04 -> 17.04 -> 17.10 | nvidia 384 .Using Standard Ubuntu desktop (Gnome) my system freezes completely (probably due to 100%CPU) after trying to search for a program16:18
NitrigaurI can't even switch out to a terminal and SSH in from external times out16:18
[Kid]thanks16:20
Stumbler_Is the default ubuntu 17 installation configuration safe to be exposed to the internet?16:20
Stumbler_or do I need to manually tighten the ropes?16:21
NitrigaurStumbler_, depends on what your requirements are16:21
Stumbler_I just want to keep bots out of my home network16:21
NitrigaurStumbler_, are you running behind a NAT?16:22
Stumbler_was going to put a box on my dmz so I could interact with some devices remotely.  but wanted to make sure I wasnt being stupid here16:22
Stumbler_I’m behind a standard cable modem. that’s about all I have.16:23
NitrigaurStumbler_, why would you want to put a box in DMZ if you arre going to use it as a desktop system?16:23
Stumbler_Well, Its more of a smart home hub really. I’m wanting it to be the webhook handler for my google actions16:24
NitrigaurTo interact with some devices remotely, you should configure your router so that the traffic needed for that will get through. Unless you are referring to the so-called magic-packet.16:24
TaZeRhow are you guys taking the switch from unity to the unity like gnome 3?16:25
TaZeRits very weird to me, i think they should have just used stock gnome 316:25
TaZeRbut i can understand its maybe for the next release or two to help users with the move16:26
GhostwalkGamesI prefer the new desktop to Unity16:26
NitrigaurStumbler_, DMZ machines are unsuitable to use as a standard desktop containing personal data. You'll want such a system *behind* your firewall. In your case, you should set up a separate machine that acts as a proxy to your external devices. It should be dedicated to this function.16:26
NitrigaurUbuntu 17.10 (Wayland) freezes at 100% CPU when searching for for a program. The system becomes completely unresponsive, even remote SSH doesn't work anymore.16:27
TaZeRto me it seems like the best parts of unity are now missing, while the parts that remain dont make sense anymore, like now were missing more space on top again with the title bar plus missing the side space too before it was a trade off16:27
NitrigaurTaZeR, I'm not a big fan of either desktop environments. I prefer i3 and a lightweight no-nonsense DE such as LXDE for tasks that require overlapping windows.16:29
GhostwalkGamesI don't think LXDE looks that nice compared to more bulky desktop environments16:31
NitrigaurGhostwalkGames, true, but it gets the job done without getting in the way with useless eye-candy.16:31
GhostwalkGamesYeah it gets the job done16:32
GhostwalkGamesI want eye candy though LOL16:32
NitrigaurGhostwalkGames, it allows me to use my CPU and mem for tasks I need to do, not for something as trivial as window-dressing.16:32
GhostwalkGamesYou could probably use stock KDE with no changes and not have to waste time window-dressing really16:33
GhostwalkGamesI mean i3WM takes time to setup and configure also16:33
NitrigaurGhostwalkGames, KDE is a bit too unwieldy, it consumes way too much resources.16:33
GhostwalkGamesI don't really mind heavyweight DEs like KDE, modern computers have so much resources now16:34
NitrigaurGhostwalkGames, I like the default settings of i3wm, they feel sensible to me.16:34
GhostwalkGamesah okay I think you are the only person I have spoken to who uses stock i3wm without a lot of configuration16:34
GhostwalkGamesconfiguration time is one of the biggest complaints about i3wm that I hear on ##linux16:34
GhostwalkGamesWith 16GB RAM and 6-8 cores being common now I think it doesn't really help to worry about the resource usage of KDE16:35
GhostwalkGamesI don't see a speed increase switching from KDE to LXDE16:36
GhostwalkGamesin a VM I would but not on bare-metal16:36
NitrigaurGhostwalkGames, it is just a matter of principle, not to mention power consumption matters as well.16:36
GhostwalkGamesbut the power consumption differences between KDE and LXDE are very very small16:36
GhostwalkGamesI understand what you are saying though, in virtual machines I behave the same way- LXDE or XFCE and i3WM16:38
GhostwalkGamesand like most people I use CLI-only for VPSs16:38
NitrigaurGhostwalkGames, I like i3wm when doing system administration and drawing. In the first instance, I can neatly organize my terminals and in the second instance, I can dedicate my whole screen to drawing, without loosing screen estate to window decorations16:39
GhostwalkGamesYeah if you are going to have multiple terminals open then i3wm is very nice16:40
GhostwalkGamesand you do gain a bit of screen real-estate16:40
GhostwalkGamesif I was going to draw something it would probably be within GIMP16:41
NitrigaurGhostwalkGames, I have a fairly outdated laptop at my workplace which was about to be tossed, running i3wm, dedicated to just one task: System health monitoring using Cacti and Nagios. It works perfectly in that setup.16:42
GhostwalkGamesYeah for older hardware i3wm would be better than any DE16:43
BluesKajyakuake or guake works great with splits16:43
BluesKajno need for i316:43
NitrigaurGhostwalkGames, it makes noise when systems go critical and I can just see an overview of all servers I manage (about 80) in one glance :-)16:44
GhostwalkGames80 servers is a lot to manage at once :O16:44
GhostwalkGameslike being a stock trader but with servers instead of stocks16:45
NitrigaurBluesKaj, Nagios and Cacti don't run in a terminal, they need a web browser.16:45
BluesKajNitrigaur, never used them16:46
NitrigaurBluesKaj, the web browsers made for terminal that I know of don't have enough capabilities for proper rendering of those pages.16:46
GhostwalkGamesye it looks like Nagios has a very graphical GUI16:47
BluesKajI don't use terminal web browsers16:47
GhostwalkGamesah it seems both Nagios and Cacti are free I might try these16:48
GhostwalkGamesI like terminal web browsers sometimes :)16:48
NitrigaurGhostwalkGames, I would not recommend Nagios for a new setup. It has to be compiled and is quite hard to maintain. I only tolerate it for now because of existing legacy.16:48
GhostwalkGamesah okay thanks16:49
NitrigaurGhostwalkGames, a friend of mine can only use terminal web browsers, because she is blind.16:49
GhostwalkGamesyeah makes sense in that case16:49
NitrigaurGhostwalkGames, I am in the process of migrating away from both Nagios and Cacti, but I need to make sure that the candidate for that task meets all requirements before phasing out Nagios and Cacti.16:51
jeremiesI can simply use to copy a dvd to iso the command "dd if=/dev/cdrom of=name.iso" or the more complicated answer in https://askubuntu.com/questions/147800/ripping-dvd-to-iso-accurately/874945#87494516:51
jeremies??16:51
Nitrigaurjeremies, depends on what kind of DVD you are trying to copy. Is it a DVD-ROM, or a Video DVD?16:51
jeremiesa dvd-rom16:52
NitrigaurIf there are no drive-sensitve nasty DRM schemes involved you could use indeed dd. If you use it for writing, make *absolutely sure* you are writing to the right device.16:53
jeremiesI don't know if there is DRM i copied already with dd.16:55
Nitrigaurjeremies, if it is a commercial disk, they usually contain some sort of DRM.16:55
Nitrigaurjeremies, if it is a commercial disk, they usually contain some kind of DRM.16:55
jeremiesI checked the md5sum of the image and the dvd and it's the same16:56
NitrigaurUbuntu 17.10 (Wayland) freezes at 100% CPU when searching for for a program. The system becomes completely unresponsive, even remote SSH doesn't work anymore.16:56
Nitrigaurjeremies, ah, that is a pretty safe bet, unless the disk also contains some data only readable to the optical drive's firmware.16:57
Nitrigaurusually you can see this when looking at the reflective side. You'll see two clearly separated rings...16:58
jeremiesNitrigaur, and dd by default does not use the logical block size and volume size of the input dvd?17:03
vincenzomlHi there! In ubuntu 17.10 when I close rhythmbox I get sometimes 100% cpu usage and anyway it keeps playing and... where is it? No longer in the audio menu17:03
jeremiesHave you to tell him explicitly?17:04
Nitrigaurjeremies, it does use the size, but as mentioned before, that is not always enough. Some DRM'ed contain data that is only readible by the drive's firmware, not to the OS (unless you have a driver installed that knows how to talk to drive's firmware in order to access those hidden parts.)17:07
PTNapivoskivincenzoml: Remove rhythmbox and use vlc...17:07
TJ-jeremies: dd just reads a stream of bytes, it's not interested in any underlying partitioning of the data17:07
vincenzomlPTNapivoski, does vlc manage my mp3 collection?17:07
Nitrigaurvincenzoml, does it only happen when closing rythmbox?  I had several freezes when just searching for a program.17:08
PTNapivoskivincenzoml: Try it...17:08
NitrigaurPTNapivoski, vincenzoml Vlc does not manage collections, because that is not it's purpose. It's a streaming player foremost.17:10
vincenzomlNitrigaur, it happens when I close the main window, rhythmbox 100% cpu, and no icon anyway17:10
vincenzomlI think this is related to the switch to gnome317:11
vincenzomlin unity there was the audio menu and I could open rhythmbox from there17:12
NitrigaurI have to cook now, good (insert your local daytime here) everyone.17:12

Neo1I thought it will much difficult17:55
jhutchinsLetsencrypt has made it much easier.  It was always pretty simple, but a little tough to figure out.18:00
visipwhen you run the certbot binary you need to make sure you have enabled a few things on your apache server virtualhost file in order for it to sync correctly18:03
visipenable the default-ssl.conf with a2ensite default-ssl.conf18:03
visipSet ServerName and ServerAlias to equal the FQDN you want ie www.example.com18:04
TJ-Apache has mod_md now too, to do the cert management in-process18:04
visipthen run certbot according to that digitalocean tutorial and it should work fine18:04
visipTJ-: how does it work?18:04
visipsnakeoil default cert locations and dhparam files?18:04
TJ-visip: very neatly! https://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/mod/mod_md.html18:04
Neo1visip: and I can install this cert on any server even without ubuntu? Just plug repository and load bot?18:04
visipNeo1: ok well in general any debian install will follow suite with how you will run an individual binary18:05
Neo1visip: seems let's encreept is not bad service18:05
visipNeo1: how you obtain that binary migh tbe different for different distros. Here we are focused on ubuntu/deb18:05
Neo1visip: well, understood18:06
visipNeo1: lets encrypt is a nice service as many CA's and user agents actually verify it as a legitimate CAuthority now18:06
Neo1visip: ok, its the first time I've installed it :)18:06
visipAs in... your users will not need to manually add the security exception to their browser due to certificate being self signed18:06
visipyea I have been running through it for the first time in a long time just the last few days18:07
visipNeo1: https://community.letsencrypt.org/t/howto-a-with-all-100-s-on-ssl-labs-test-using-apache2-4-read-warnings/243618:07
Neo1visip: I've been doing it for a few minutes18:07
visipNeo1: this is a great example of configuring apache2.4 w/ letsencrypt18:07
visipmind you... the HPKP stuff is a little over the top and takes significant work to do correctly... most people avoid this as you can literally brick a website for all of your users if its enabled incorrectly18:08
visipthe major different in that tutorial18:09

TJ-m5w: I'd suspect the password-flags for your connection is set to 1 - which means (see end of 'man nm-settings') it asks the user-agent for the credentials20:16
NitrigaurUbuntu 17.10, nvidia 384.90, Gnome std. desktop (as default by Ubuntu): desktop freezes on 100% CPU when searching for program. This did not happen on 16.0420:22
zerothishow can I do an apturl (apt://package) in wikicode? I just need a single file and no repo specified.20:22
NitrigaurCPU is consumed to such extent that terminal (local/ remote) is no longer possible and I have to hard-reboot the machine20:23

Nitrigaurzerothis, just enclose it in double brackets.20:23
Nitrigaurzerothis, [["URL"]]20:23
Nitrigaurlotuspsychje, ah, welcome back :-)20:24
TJ-Nitrigaur: have you run a tail on dmesg and watched for errors before the system locks up?20:24
Nitrigaurlotuspsychje, I don't know how to choose that session. I'm currently on Unity, I only 3 options: Ubuntu Desktop, i3wm and Unity20:25
NitrigaurTJ- I might try a tail -f20:25
NitrigaurTJ-, or a watch for that matter. Along with a top to see what process presumibly enters a race condition.20:26
zerothisNitrigaur: well, wikis do not make a link of that. it they simply show the unlinked plain text "[[apt://package]]" "[[apt://package apt link]]" "[[apt://package | apt link]]"20:26
Nitrigaurzerothis, that's odd. Double brackets generally denote a link.20:27
TJ-Nitrigaur: if the system really freezes - no mouse movement - then it suggests a hardware fault of some kind, so there may be a kernel PANIC20:27
NitrigaurTJ- , no mouse movement indeed20:27
TJ-Nitrigaur: how long (time-wise) is the 'search' going on before it freezes? And what kind of search is this? typing a name in the Dash?20:28
NitrigaurTJ-, but a hardware fault seems highly unlikely, since the system is a) quite new, b) runs with ample ventilation, c) did not act up before the upgrade from 17.04 to 17.1020:28
NitrigaurTJ-, only a couple of seconds tops.20:28
TJ-Nitrigaur: we've had a lot of issues with the v4.13 kernel in 17.10 due to firmware ACPI bugs, since the kernel has tightened up it's implementation of the ACPI specification20:29
NitrigaurTJ- indeed, specifically, I searched for Thunderbird.20:29
TJ-Nitrigaur: there's a simple change you can apply to test if the ACPI issue could be the cause:  http://iam.tj/prototype/enhancements/Windows-acpi_osi.html20:29
NitrigaurTJ-, thank you for the link. I'll try it to see if that is the cause. Still, if it's a hardware <-> issue, running Unity or Gnome3 shouldn't make any difference, what you?20:31
NitrigaurTJ-, I am now running Unity on exactly the same kernel, without any issues whatsoever.20:32
TJ-Nitrigaur: I agree, but easier to attack the low-hanging fruit because debugging this kind of issue can get very intense and take a long time, if there's no log evidence20:32
lotuspsychjeNitrigaur: the guest account could also be a test20:32
lotuspsychjeNitrigaur: or a liveusb 17.1020:33
TJ-Nitrigaur: it's always possible there is corruption in some files that are being executed20:33
Nitrigaurlotuspsychje, to see if my profile somehow got corrupted during the upgrade?20:33
lotuspsychjeNitrigaur: yeah i always wanna exclude leftovers from upgrades, you never know..20:33
TJ-Nitrigaur: for the system to completely freeze suggests some executable has made a system-call into the kernel which has not returned20:33
lotuspsychje!info linux-image-generic artful20:34
ubottulinux-image-generic (source: linux-meta): Generic Linux kernel image. In component main, is optional. Version 4.13.0.17.18 (artful), package size 2 kB, installed size 14 kB20:34
TJ-Nitrigaur: the fact the mouse interrupt isn't being handled is a big clue20:34
TJ-Nitrigaur: these issues often require a process-of-elimination to narrow down the cause, so the more tests you can do the more you can rule out20:35
Nitrigaurlotuspsychje, that would make sense. Another thing that struck me was that after the upgrade, the system hard-froze and would not reboot automatically. After a power cycle, I had no issues of this kind anymore, but it's still odd. There were 3 errors reported on not being able to unmount /home /efi and /sys20:35

ioriasorta20:54
ioriaNitrigaur,  and default nouveau  not working at all ?20:55
lotuspsychjeNitrigaur: did you try a tail -f /var/log/syslog until you freeze and see at wich step it goes wrong?20:56
Nitrigaurioria, lotuspsychje, TJ-, first of all, I'll try a tail -f  and a watch dmesg to find the process(es) involved in the freeze. Afterwards, I'll try the nouveau driver. If that still shows the same symptoms, a driver incompatibility will be a less likely issue. After that, I'll try the script that TJ- suggested.21:00
ioriaNitrigaur, sounds good21:00
Nitrigaurioria, lotuspsychje, TJ-, See you soon, I have to log out and into the std. Gnome desktop to see if this works.21:00
alexasany way I can format some small part of my external hdd to put some linux distro on it to be able to boot it up and make full scale backups of existing system(s)?21:09
alexaswithout loosing already existing data on external hdd?21:09
auronandacealexas: wouldn't it be better to just use a liveusb and keep your external hdd for storage?21:10
alexasauronandace: I know that scenario, but am aiming to make it more simple and use only one usb device for the whole operation21:11
auronandacealexas: you can do that if you want to. just make a separate partition for your install21:12

Cr4zkoWhy's systemd evil?21:14
alexasauronandace: am looking for a more extended material that I can read about so I will not make accidental mistake with corrupting already existed  data on hdd21:14
auronandacealexas: you should have backups in any case21:14
foul_owlWhat's the preseed option for ssid and psk?21:15
alexasauronandace: I don't have a sufficient capacity of storage anywhere at hands at the moment, unfortunatelly21:15
NitrigaurTJ-, I have rebooted after being presented with a mostly white greeter after logout from Ubuntu Unity (*not* normal). this greeter did not provide any means to reboot, so I had to reboot via a sudo shutdown -r. After that, I'm in Gnome and everything at least *seems* to be fine. Still the issue in the log of the fallback to previous VESA mode detection, but otherwise fine.21:16
auronandacealexas: so the safest thing to do is keep your live setup and backup storage separate21:16
auronandacealexas: there is always some risk in partitioning so better safe than sorry21:17
NitrigaurTJ-, What I *did* notice however is that the Ubuntu session in the greeter specifically mentioned Xorg, no option to select Wayland21:17
alexasauronandace: right, pk thanks21:17
alexasok*21:17
NitrigaurTJ-, The next step is to try your script, just the diagnostic part mind you.21:18
JakeukalaneHello. I have a HDD with a Ubuntu 16.04 installed. I want to put another HDD as a slave with Windows. How I would do that in the grub? If it is not right to ask this question here, where I could ask? Thank you21:39
Bashing-omJakeukalane: Install Windows on that 2nd hard drive, boot up ubuntu and run terminal command ' sudo update-grub ' .21:46
Bashing-omJakeukalane: Another preventive thought . EFI machine ? Then make sure both systems are installed as EFI .21:54
SpitfayaHi guys, I'm new to ubuntu and i was wondering if someone can help me with samba\21:56
ComnenusWhy is "virtualbox" 5.0 and there are standalone packages for 5.1 and 5.2?  Are there problems with later versions?21:56
SpitfayaI'd like to share a folder on an internal drive so I can access it as a guest from windows but I keep getting permission issues.... but if I create a folder on my ubuntu desktop I can share it easily... so I think that has something to do with the mount point.21:59
MarkB2I did ..something.. with ccsm.  Managed to recover from most of the screwup... but the last "oops" has me stumped.22:15
MarkB2When I open any program that has a GUI interface, it opens with the window titlebar above Unity's top bar.  I can't move the window.22:16
MarkB2If I put the focus on the window and use ALT-F7 then I can move the window with the cursor.22:17
JakeukalaneBashing-om, both systems are already installed. is bios not EFI.  Thank you22:47
Jakeukalanecool, seems easier than I though22:47
Bashing-omJakeukalane: :)22:52
RicardusHas anyone ever seen any weird behaviour with the new Firefox (quantum)? Whenever its running on my system, and I install a new font, and view it with the Ubuntu font viewer (by double clicking the TTF or OTF file) it locks up Firefox.22:53
SpitfayaHellooooo! .... can anyone help me plssss?22:59

ubottuSpitfaya: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience22:59
Spitfayasry guys... I did ask the question earlier but no one answered.... it's concerning samba sharing23:00
Spitfayai'm trying to share a folder as guest on my network.... if i share it from my desktop it opens just fine as guest but if I share it from my internal drive i get permission error23:01
Spitfayaso my question is does the mount location affect the samba permissions and if so how can I share as a guest from an different drive than my home23:02
compdocso if it works on your desktop, then sounds like you dont have permissions right23:03
SpitfayaI can access the shared folder from a windows PC... only if the folder is located on my desktop23:04
Spitfayaif i try sharing a folder on my other HDD it gives me permission errors23:04

Spitfayado I need to change the ownership of the folder to "nobody"?23:08
compdochmm, I usually use a group and root23:09
Spitfayafor some reason the same configuration works on Xubuntu but not on 16.04.... unless there's some samba settings i'm missing23:11
Spitfayado I need to enable wins support?23:12
