| zach_ | tatertots, uh... sorta newbish, and i am running a 10gb VM and i need the space so i can expiriment with a tutoriel i found that will let me have a FULL ubuntu2go installation | 00:13 |
| zach_ | i am just wondering if its safe to remove mate-desktop and replace it with Openbox | 00:14 |
| tatertots | zach_: ah you need space...i understand | 00:14 |
| dirby | Bashing-om no I can't :( | 00:14 |

| zach_ | http://paste.ubuntu.com/26434248/ | 00:19 |
| tatertots | zach_: hmm you didn't capacity plan the virtual machine deployment with enough disk space for any real usage with a mere 10GB..but the link shows where the "fat" is, if you were so inclined to want to trim "fat". | 00:21 |
| tatertots | rather skinny but none the less..you want to trim "fat" don't you? | 00:22 |
| zach_ | okay? what programs to "apt purge"? | 00:22 |
| zach_ | And yes, | 00:22 |
| zach_ | i want to be as barebones as possible, yet still have a desktop enviroment, even if it is the tricky Openbox, | 00:23 |
| tatertots | zach_: well judging by the data in the link | 00:25 |
| tatertots | zach_: there's only 2x/two places that occupy "GB's" of space | 00:26 |
| zach_ | okay? | 00:26 |
| tatertots | zach_: appears everything else is ....."drop in the bucket" so to speak | 00:27 |
| zach_ | okay. | 00:27 |

| zach_ | if only TreeSize was for Linux, than i could see it better | 00:28 |

| zach_ | As in, i suck at alot of stuff, but can find workarounds | 00:28 |
| zach_ | if need be, i can let you ssh, and maybe join a discord server of mine so we can chat better | 00:29 |
| monster | hi | 00:29 |
| tatertots | zach_: i understand | 00:30 |
| tatertots | zach_: If you will allow me to ask you a few preliminary questions and provide honest answers remote access may not be needed. I've gotten rather good at asking questions. | 00:31 |
| zach_ | okay, ask away | 00:32 |
| zach_ | also if need be, i can resetup the vm for an added 4gb | 00:32 |
| tatertots | zach_: your vm is ubuntu mate, this is a fact already known....what is the host OS? | 00:33 |
| zach_ | Win10 | 00:33 |
| dirby | Bashing-om I'm back, it looks as though I can't get into the console through ctrl alt and F1 but I can get to the # root from a gui menu on boot | 00:33 |
| zach_ | and that is the (improperly named) Windows Subsytem for Linux | 00:33 |
| zach_ | so it contains a ubuntu bash shell | 00:34 |
| tatertots | zach_: It maybe possible to "extend" the 10GB of space you "initially" allocated to the vm. This would be done in the hypervisor software aka virtualbox. | 00:34 |
| zach_ | k, | 00:35 |
| Bashing-om | dirby: Ouch - UNgood, as that implies the issue is greater than a driver problem . | 00:35 |
| Zombie | Anyone Else? I am attempting to Authenticate DoveCot IMAP to a Samba 4 Active Directory Server running Ubuntu 16.04 | 00:36 |
| pavlos | zach_: here's how to resize a VM under windows http://derekmolloy.ie/resize-a-virtualbox-disk/ | 00:36 |
| tatertots | zach_: once you have "extended" at the hypervisor level...you will still need to perform more actions to "truly" realize the newly added space...but don't worry about that now...just try to find me again if you manage to get that far. | 00:36 |
| Zombie | I also need to know if its possible to get libuser-ldap | 00:36 |
| Zombie | on Ubuntu 16.04 | 00:36 |
| zach_ | okay, uh... | 00:36 |
| zach_ | try bitchat.im before i logout please? | 00:37 |
| tatertots | zach_: i'm all too familiar with most methods of network communication(s)...this medium is sufficient for the task that you have been assigned. | 00:38 |
| Bashing-om | dirby: Let's take a poke at it . in this root shell run ' mount -o remount,rw / (Note there is no space after the comma.) ; apt update ; apt full-upgrade ; apt 0f install ' . Any errors reported ? | 00:38 |
| dirby | Bashing-om Yikes! It worked really well with 15.10 until I upgraded yesterday | 00:39 |

| ZachD | Its very useful, ive been using it for personal stuff | 01:06 |
| donofrio | ZachD, I basically use windows 10 as a 15 gb bootloader into ubuntu goodness ;) | 01:06 |
| ZachD | lol | 01:06 |

| donofrio | xming doesn't do thing right I though and so i'm using VcXsrv | 01:06 |
| donofrio | ZachD, my whole build is outlined in the powerpoint ppt file at tinyurl.com/donofrioworkdesk | 01:07 |
| TJ- | It's a superb pyschological technique by Microsoft; get folks to pay the Windows licensing to use F/OSS | 01:07 |
| ZachD | i even have an alias programmed to start at boot, Dlocalhost_0, what this does is it basically runs this "export DISPLAY=localhost:0" | 01:07 |
| ZachD | i havent ONCE payed for windows, i just used the media creation tool | 01:08 |

| tatertots | Zach-d: i understand | 01:49 |

| mostdef | donofrio-g5: I'm still on 16.04 | 02:05 |
| donofrio-g5 | oh ok well if anyone else knows I'm all ears ;( | 02:05 |
| donofrio-g5 | :) | 02:05 |
| donofrio-g5 | I meant | 02:05 |
| mostdef | donofrio-g5: could you perhaps just backup your home, do a clean install, then restore? | 02:06 |
| mostdef | I never do "upgrades". Whether it's Windows, Linux, or Android. Factory reset + restore. | 02:08 |
| donofrio-g5 | I upgraded from 16.04 to 17.04 on work desktop's (that are in wsl) | 02:09 |
| mostdef | is that Linux-on-Windows-10? | 02:09 |
| donofrio-g5 | I heard 17.04 support is over so I figure I need to goto 18.04 soon | 02:10 |
| donofrio-g5 | mostdef, my writeup is at http://tinyurl.com/donofrioworkdesk in the ppt file | 02:10 |
| mostdef | donofrio-g5: I can't expand the photos because I need a Live account. Are you running terminal only, or did you manage to get a GUI running? | 02:13 |
| mostdef | ah nevermind, it was just super slow (I'm in a cafe) after discarding the login window. | 02:14 |
| donofrio-g5 | mostdef, skip past that unneededd login soory | 02:14 |
| ChetManly | is /etc/cron.daily still a thing in ubuntu? | 02:14 |
| donofrio-g5 | ChetManly, man cron and you'll see it listed | 02:15 |
| mostdef | donofrio-g5: that looks nice. What's the UI performance like? I use Ubuntu inside a Virtualbox VM on a Windows 10 host. I'm intrigued, I suspect performance and battery life would be much better using WSL. | 02:15 |
| ChetManly | donofrio-g5: arent things handled like services now or something | 02:16 |
| donofrio-g5 | mostdef, you see two desktop's running windows (yes I use windows 10 as a 15 gb bootloader) then you see desktop's running WSL inside windows 10 no vm at all | 02:17 |
| donofrio-g5 | ChetManly, cron is cron | 02:17 |
| donofrio-g5 | mostdef, performance is great...... | 02:17 |
| ChetManly | so are service, daemon and cron interchangable? | 02:17 |
| donofrio-g5 | ChetManly, no | 02:18 |
| mostdef | ChetManly: systemd timers you mean? Probably easier to write and manage than cron jobs. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Systemd/Timers | 02:18 |
| donofrio-g5 | mostdef, archlinux link in here - lol | 02:18 |
| mostdef | donofrio-g5: I just retutrned the 1st google result | 02:18 |

| mostdef | still...not all of it. I could use 64-bit WSL for my web dev, and a 32-bit VBox VM for my embedded work | 02:30 |
| capella | ooooh, ah, mmmmmm ...... http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ | 02:31 |
| capella | bleeding edge baby ;) | 02:31 |
| donofrio | mostdef, why do you *need* 32 bit? | 02:34 |
| ChetManly | an operating system that hasnt changed in years | 02:34 |
| ChetManly | https://neon.kde.org/ | 02:35 |
| mostdef | donofrio: the tools I use are 32-bit. I got errors I couldn't get past when I first built a 64-bit VM. | 02:36 |
| mostdef | it's tools to develop for an ARM board | 02:36 |
| donofrio | ask here when you get the erors again | 02:37 |
| mostdef | hmm, OK, thanks | 02:38 |
| mostdef | ChetManly: NEON is pretty now, what do you mean hasn't changed in years? Wasn't it released in 2016? | 02:39 |
| ChetManly | huh | 02:39 |
| mostdef | ChetManly: you linked Neon saying it hasn't changed in years, or did I misunderstand | 02:40 |
| mostdef | *pretty new | 02:40 |
| ChetManly | no ubuntu | 02:40 |
| ChetManly | same ol | 02:41 |
| ChetManly | but that is probably for the best,, this channel used to scroll outta control and now it calm and that probably thanks to staying the same | 02:42 |
| donofrio | mostdef, still think you should just have to install 32 bit libraies you'd think and still run 64 bit? | 02:43 |

| tatertots | ubantoo: then you're going to click "continue" that's all you're going to do...any other options are for the advanced user....as in someone who could do it on their own without ever coming here or looking at any forums. | 04:12 |
| ubantoo | ok my question is, if i click continue, and choose the first option. will the installer make seperate partitions for my /home and / | 04:13 |
| ubantoo | does it do that by default? | 04:13 |
| tatertots | ubantoo: it will not "conveniently" do anything with /home...that's a technique for the system administrator to decide to deploy | 04:14 |
| ubantoo | so, in the first option, it basically makes 1 partition for /home / | 04:15 |
| ubantoo | what about encryption of /home | 04:15 |

| tatertots | Quenz: you haven't said what the "present" problem you are attempting to address is | 05:55 |
| Quenz | Bashing-om That's fine. I changed my driver from open source (which works, but is slow) to a proprietary one (which should be faster, but has issue) | 05:55 |
| === BrAsS_mOnKeY is now known as william | ||
| Quenz | tatertots Curren issue is proprietary drivers not working properly. Booting produces flashing text | 05:56 |

| ubottu | marcosfermin: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 05:57 |
| tatertots | Quenz: that's odd...you had the proprietary driver "previously" http://termbin.com/8yya | 05:57 |

| Quenz | I'm not trying to hold you liable to anything tatertots, I'm just trying to get help to fix my issue. Doesn't have to be from you, open to suggestions from anyone really. | 07:47 |
| Quenz | I don't exactly remember that last part though | 07:48 |
| tatertots | Quenz: are you chatting from the effected computer right now? yes or no | 07:52 |
| Quenz | tatertots no | 07:52 |
| tatertots | Quenz: do you have physical access to the effected computer right now? yes or no | 07:52 |
| Quenz | tatertots yes | 07:52 |
| tatertots | Quenz: does the effected computer have an active internet connection? yes or no | 07:53 |
| Quenz | tatertots yes | 07:53 |
| tatertots | Quenz: inxi -Fxxprzc0|pastebinit | 07:53 |
| Quenz | Will do so in recovery mode (or whatever it's called) | 07:54 |
| Quenz | tatertots Actually, is it okay to do it from a live boot? | 07:54 |
| tatertots | Quenz: no | 07:54 |
| Quenz | okie dokie | 07:54 |
| vlt | Hello. How can I create a clickable icon on the desktop that will run /my/shell_script.sh on Ubuntu 16.04 MATE? | 07:54 |
| Quenz | tatertots recovery mode is fine though, right? | 07:55 |
| tatertots | Quenz: anything is fine...except not answering my questions %100 honestly and accurately, fail at that....you will fail ultimately | 07:56 |
| Quenz | tatertots I'm not trying to be difficult. I apologize if I am. | 07:57 |
| tatertots | Quenz: i don't believe humans are every "trying" to be difficult my friend :) Its just that i can only process certain logic | 07:58 |
| Quenz | tatertots I do try to be as honest as I can. Anyway, I thought I had an internet connection, but I'm getting a "Failed to contact the server ..." error with that command | 08:01 |
| tatertots | Quenz: no worries | 08:01 |
| tatertots | Quenz: you'll either have to attempt disaster recovery or reinstall linux..and before any user I consult with considers disaster recovery I always ask them to ask themselves a question first. | 08:03 |
| tatertots | Quenz: Do you have disaster recovery experience?, how successful have you been in the past at disaster recovery?. | 08:04 |
| tatertots | Quenz: those are important questions to answer in order to have "realistic" expectations | 08:04 |
| Quenz | tatertots I'm not sure what exactly is meant by "disaster recovery", so probably not. I wouldn't mind reinstalling Ubuntu, it doesn't take very long. | 08:04 |
| tatertots | Quenz: is this the effected computer http://termbin.com/8yya ? yes or no | 08:10 |
| Quenz | tatertots yes | 08:13 |
| tatertots | Quenz: are you installing the exact same version and edition of Ubuntu shown here http://termbin.com/8yya? yes or no | 08:15 |
| Quenz | tatertots I haven't changed anything, so it should be, but I can double check if you like. | 08:17 |
| tatertots | Quenz: ok this is where we left off in previous sessions of my advice, my programming will not allow me to repeat the same things while expecting different result(s). My maker embedded this into my programing intentionally. | 08:18 |
| Quenz | :D | 08:19 |
| tatertots | Quenz: i can only help you up unto the point at which you decide to repeat past historical failures while clinging to some hope of success | 08:19 |
| tatertots | at that point the session will conclude | 08:20 |
| Quenz | I don't follow 100%, but it sounds like you don't want to help me, which is fine. | 08:20 |
| Quenz | Anyone else? | 08:20 |
| tatertots | Quenz: you are in the process of reinstalling? true or false | 08:21 |
| Quenz | tatertots False. Would you like me to try that? | 08:22 |
| tatertots | Quenz: yes | 08:23 |
| Quenz | In the process now | 08:30 |
| da7niel | I want to search for keywords inside a manual entry, how do I do this? | 08:37 |
| bunnypuncher | man thepageyouwnat | grep keyword | 08:39 |
| bunnypuncher | or if you just run man program. Then you will be able you do /keyword. and that would do a search | 08:41 |

| house_ | question, I think I just witnessed something amazing I have an soc mini itx duelcore atom mb that has been abused for years. this year its acting as a HTPC anyways I was copying a file and watching a movie, suddenly pc froze with pc speaker on. Right before this happened being as I was paying close attention in this movie I cought what looked like a few frames of the colliding files as the SOC melted down. | 08:41 |
| tatertots | Quenz: hopefully this time around you can avoid any of this stuff maybe http://termbin.com/wrnz | 08:42 |
| Quenz | Hopefully | 08:42 |
| house_ | possible on ubuntu 16 i386 | 08:43 |

| tatertots | please share what you have with me | 08:44 |

| Quenz | I was going to choose nvidia-340 which is labeled "proprietary, tested", but there's also nvidia-304. Is nvidia-340 fine tatertots? | 09:20 |
| mezod | tatertots: I'm not sure if you are asking me to just install ubuntu :P I just wanted to ask someone with ubuntu 17/ff 57 to check if they see a css bug in a site, or it's just a user who might have zoomed in/out from the browser mistakenly | 09:22 |
| tatertots | Quenz: according to http://termbin.com/8yya i can say for a fact that previously you had used NVIDIA 304.xx | 09:23 |
| Quenz | tatertots I previously used both. Each had different issues. 304 is legacy, so I'm gonna assume 340. | 09:23 |
| tatertots | Quenz: select the driver you prefer | 09:24 |
| === anders is now known as Guest92518 | ||
| tatertots | Quenz: also hope you can avoid any crashes like these http://termbin.com/yidn this time around | 09:30 |
| Quenz | tatertots I got a "System program problem detected" after applying the driver in Additional Drivers, is there any log you would like to read because of this? | 09:32 |
| tatertots | Quenz: yes, but i would like you to accumulate more symptom(s) data first if possible | 09:34 |
| tatertots | Quenz: just keep playing around with it | 09:34 |
| tatertots | Quenz: you've just completed a "fresh" install? true or false | 09:35 |
| gt8ost4l | does anybody know how to put the clementine indicator on the top panel? | 09:37 |
| Quenz | tatertots true. Like I said, a "System program problem detected" came up when applying changes to Additional Drivers after changing to nvidia-340. Would you like me to type something in terminal to see what this problem detected was? | 09:38 |

| DarsVaeda | how can I ensure a port is open to public? I checkt with netstat and the port is listed but from a foreign machine I get connection refused | 10:31 |
| oerheks | DarsVaeda, check the router/modem, if that port is forwarded, or check online https://portchecker.co/ | 10:34 |
| DarsVaeda | it's a local setup | 10:34 |
| DarsVaeda | host is a mac and I try to communicate between two ubuntu virtual machines | 10:35 |
| DarsVaeda | neither the host nor one of the virtual machines can communicate with each other | 10:35 |
| DarsVaeda | but I'm not really sure the port is actually open to the public | 10:35 |
| DarsVaeda | I can access port 22 without problems | 10:36 |
| aiena | DarsVaeda, it is most like ufw | 10:36 |
| === menace is now known as Deknos | ||
| DarsVaeda | ufw= | 10:37 |
| DarsVaeda | ufw? | 10:37 |
| aiena | DarsVaeda, what is the output of "sudo ufw status" on the vms? | 10:37 |
| aiena | does it say "active" ? | 10:37 |
| DarsVaeda | inactive | 10:37 |
| aiena | inactive on both | 10:38 |
| aiena | What network mode is the vm using? | 10:38 |
| DarsVaeda | yes both vm inactive | 10:38 |
| aiena | Is it a host only network | 10:39 |
| aiena | or are the vm's in bridged mode? | 10:39 |
| aiena | what virtualisation technology are you using? | 10:39 |
| aiena | Can you ping one vm from the other? | 10:40 |
| DarsVaeda | virtualbox, I'm trying to check the config what mode is used | 10:40 |
| DarsVaeda | I can ping and access other ports like 22 | 10:40 |
| aiena | DarsVaeda, ok for virtualbox go to the vm's settings. Choose "Network" | 10:40 |
| aiena | there there is an "Attached to" drop down it will be greyed out for a running vm. WHat is written in it? | 10:41 |
| DarsVaeda | thinking, or maybe just 22 I never checked other ports... | 10:41 |
| DarsVaeda | ah it's host only | 10:42 |
| aiena | No wonder | 10:42 |
| aiena | make both "bridged" | 10:42 |
| aiena | so that they are on your LAN network/subnet instead og host only | 10:42 |
| aiena | you need to shutdown both vm's first | 10:42 |
| DarsVaeda | ah okay, thanks for clearing that up | 10:42 |
| tatertots | DarsVaeda: are you chatting from the computer right now? yes or no | 10:42 |
| tatertots | DarsVaeda: nvm | 10:43 |
| aiena | DarsVaeda, if you still have issues after that let me know. | 10:45 |
| DarsVaeda | thanks :) | 10:45 |
| aiena | if both the vm's are host only | 10:46 |
| aiena | then they most likely wont be able to reach each other on any port to start with | 10:46 |
| DarsVaeda | except 22 it seems | 10:47 |
| aiena | 22 is a low port | 10:47 |
| aiena | what are you running? | 10:47 |
| DarsVaeda | also forwarded | 10:47 |
| DarsVaeda | vagrant configured through puphpet | 10:47 |
| tatertots | DarsVaeda: are you chatting from the computer right now? yes or no | 10:47 |
| DarsVaeda | need to check how to change config to bridged | 10:47 |
| DarsVaeda | tatertots: why do you ask? | 10:48 |
| aiena | DarsVaeda, that is tatertots long methodology of helping :) | 10:48 |
| aiena | it is less error porne but more tedious | 10:48 |
| aiena | *prone | 10:48 |
| DarsVaeda | a like a help bot kinda thing :) | 10:49 |

| tatertots | 2 is an invalid number, only 1 and 0 exist | 10:51 |

| jtfidje | Hey. I'm having some trouble with two external monitors connected to my laptop through a thunderbolt --> DisplayPort splitter (1:2). When I lock my screen, all monitors (including my laptop) go black, but then my laptop screen flikkers on (and you can see the open programs on my desktop) before both the external screens turn on again and I only see the password prompt. Then all screens go black, wait a few seconds and repeat. Whaaaat? | 12:17 |

| ubottu | To have some persistent storage when using a Live CD, follow the instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDPersistence | 12:21 |
| R1cochet | Thank you cfhowlett | 12:21 |
| tatertots | dingir_: are you okay? | 12:21 |

| R1cochet | If i install to usb will it still be as portable? Meaning i can jump from one pc to another just the same? | 12:23 |
| oerheks | R1cochet, sure | 12:23 |
| oerheks | * with live persistence | 12:23 |
| R1cochet | Well hot damn. Even if one is amd and other is intel cpu | 12:24 |
| oerheks | you won't actually install packages, unless they are functional unzipped or something like that | 12:24 |

| tatertots | dingir_: you probably already knew that though | 12:29 |
| dingir_ | i think its because nvidia driver not supporting wayland, i see on forum | 12:29 |

| tatertots | dingir_: have you attempted to configure autologin? yes or no | 12:29 |

| azizLIGHT | help? i just installed 17.10, booted into it, changed gpu drivers from open source to propertiary in the software/updates program (additional drivers tab), rebooted, and now it doesnt boot past loading initial ramdisk after grub (tried all kernels listed and their recovery modes in grub to no avail) | 12:33 |
| blackflow | azizLIGHT: nvidia? | 12:35 |
| dingir_ | got it | 12:36 |
| tatertots | dingir_: good deal :) | 12:36 |
| === dingir_ is now known as dingir | ||
| blackflow | azizLIGHT: anyway, remove "splash" from the kernel command line in grub menu to get through, then edit /etc/default/grub and remove splash from GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT, run `update-grub` | 12:36 |
| azizLIGHT | blackflow: yes, nvidia | 12:37 |
| jtfidje | Hey sorry - I'm gonna try just once more :-) ( Ubuntu 17.10) I'm having some trouble with two external monitors connected to my laptop through a thunderbolt --> DisplayPort splitter (1:2). When I lock my screen, all monitors (including my laptop) go black, but then my laptop screen flikkers on (and you can see the open programs on my desktop) before both the external screens turn on again and I only see the password prompt. Then all screens go black, | 12:37 |
| jtfidje | wait a few seconds and repeat. What can be causing this and how can I prevent the other people in the office to get seizures when I go afk? | 12:37 |
| azizLIGHT | blackflow: i already removed quiet and splash. i had also tried adding nomodeset. and like i said. it hangs at loading inital ramdisk | 12:37 |
| blackflow | azizLIGHT: then I don't know, sorry. | 12:37 |
| azizLIGHT | it still responds to ctrl-alt-del and reboots if i hold it | 12:38 |
| azizLIGHT | wonder what that means | 12:38 |
| azizLIGHT | not completely hung i guess? | 12:38 |
| oerheks | azizLIGHT, that resticted drivers, nvidia and you run a wayland session? | 12:39 |
| tatertots | jtfidje: a screen saver is configured for use? true or false | 12:39 |
| jtfidje | false | 12:39 |
| dingir | i had to uncomment | 12:39 |
| azizLIGHT | oerheks: i use whatever is default in 17.10 desktop. im not sure if thats wayland. and yes i used the restricted nvidia proprietary drivers in the addtional drivers tab in the software/updates program. i believe hte version was 384 something | 12:40 |
| dingir | WaylandEnable=false | 12:40 |
| tatertots | jtfidje: the symptom occurs even if you only have 1of2 external monitors in use? true or false | 12:40 |
| jtfidje | do not know. Testing right away. | 12:40 |
| oerheks | azizLIGHT, then logout, change wayland to xorg and try again: nvidia does not work ( yet) with wayland | 12:40 |
| oerheks | see the releasenotes | 12:41 |
| blackflow | oerheks: the computer doesn't even boot past loading initramfs, it has nothing to do with gnome session, that's not even reached yet | 12:41 |
| azizLIGHT | oerheks: i cannot boot at all to be able to do that. i get stuck at loading initial ramdisk after grub | 12:41 |
| azizLIGHT | oerheks: how does one change to xorg from wayland? | 12:41 |
| azizLIGHT | i think i will try a reinstall | 12:41 |
| blackflow | azizLIGHT: just to confirm, you DON'T have "quiet" on the kernel command line, and you do NOT see kernel output happening? | 12:42 |
| blackflow | azizLIGHT: did you update the system before enabling nvidia? | 12:43 |
| azizLIGHT | blackflow: i removed quiet and splash from kern command line in grub using 'e' and removing them from the command line and hit f10 to boot. then i see kernel output of like 2 lines, where the last line is loading intial ramdisk. and it is stuck at that point. and hten i rebooted and i tried it for other kernels listed in grub and the recovery mode ones too | 12:43 |
| jtfidje | tatertots: False! Removing one monitor from the splitter also removed the issue | 12:43 |
| tatertots | jtfidje: open terminal | 12:43 |
| ylwghst | If I create a script in /etc/initramfs-tools/scripts/init-bottom hwen it will be executed? | 12:43 |
| azizLIGHT | blackflow: i had installed and checked 'download whatever you need' so technically yes. but i did not directly do apt-get upgrade | 12:43 |
| jtfidje | Done | 12:44 |
| tatertots | jtfidje: sudo apt install inxi pastebinit | 12:44 |
| tatertots | jtfidje: let me know when done | 12:44 |
| blackflow | azizLIGHT: no. it doesn't update, ,despite that checkbox. you have to do it manually. | 12:44 |
| azizLIGHT | ah ok i didnt realize | 12:44 |
| azizLIGHT | should i just reinstall | 12:44 |
| jtfidje | done :-) | 12:44 |
| tatertots | jtfidje: inxi -Fxxprzc0|pastebinit | 12:44 |
| tatertots | jtfidje: share url/link here | 12:44 |
| blackflow | I don't know, but if this is a fresh installation, then if I were you, yes, I'd do that. and then firs step after installation would be to update the system and reboot, since there are kernel updates. only then, on updated kernel, woudl I install nvidia driver. | 12:45 |
| blackflow | azizLIGHT: it compiles it against current kernel headers, so that's why. | 12:45 |
| blackflow | (it's DKMS) | 12:45 |
| jtfidje | tatertots: http://paste.ubuntu.com/26437040/ | 12:45 |
| azizLIGHT | blackflow: what about switching to xorg from wayland like how oerheks said. how does one do that? | 12:45 |
| blackflow | azizLIGHT: you don't have to. it's xorg. wayland won't even be available because nvidia doesn't support it. | 12:46 |
| blackflow | (available in session selector, I mean) | 12:46 |
| tatertots | jtfidje: if you're happy so am i, however i must say...i don't like what i'm seeing | 12:46 |
| jtfidje | tatertots: Hah please give it to me real | 12:47 |
| azizLIGHT | 17.10 ships with wayland? and i dont have to switch to xorg myself because i switched to nvidia proprietary gpu drivers? am i understanding you right | 12:47 |
| azizLIGHT | blackflow: ^^ | 12:47 |
| blackflow | azizLIGHT: correct. wayland session will not be available on login screen, when you reboot with nvidia proprietary driver. | 12:47 |
| tatertots | jtfidje: in terminal> id|pastebinit | 12:48 |
| blackflow | azizLIGHT: you can confirm that by clicking the cog and seeing there's only "Ubuntu xorg" or what's it called, there. | 12:48 |
| blackflow | (on the login screen, the cog is below the password input field) | 12:48 |
| azizLIGHT | ok got it. let me try to reinstall and then sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade, reboot, and then try the nvidia proprietary drivers | 12:48 |
| azizLIGHT | i see | 12:48 |
| blackflow | azizLIGHT: I'm sure of all this because I installed a couple of 17.10 instances in the past week. | 12:48 |
| jtfidje | tatertots: http://paste.ubuntu.com/26437040/ | 12:49 |

| tatertots | jtfidje: don't read too much into that...i have a tendency to nit pick | 12:57 |
| jtfidje | tatertots: Has this something to do with me using prime to deactivate the gtx card when I dont need it to save battery? | 12:57 |
| tatertots | jtfidje: i would say that is plausible | 12:58 |
| jtfidje | tatertots: I've donwloaded the daily snapshot :-) What next? Can this still be fixed even though I use the integrated Intel gfx? | 12:59 |

| V7 | Can I ask here question regards hardware ? | 13:09 |
| cfhowlett | ask V7 but be aware of #harware | 13:09 |
| jtfidje | tatertots: Well, when I have the nvidia card "on" the laptop dont last for more than two-three hours no matter what i do. But when i disabled it, I've had it last more than five hours on one charge | 13:09 |
| tatertots | jtfidje: i understand | 13:09 |
| tatertots | jtfidje: will you put the laptop back into "high performance" or "power sucking" mode temporarily? | 13:10 |
| V7 | cfhowlett, #hardware might be quiet right now, but might be here some who could help here | 13:10 |
| tatertots | jtfidje: i need it to be running full power | 13:10 |
| jtfidje | tatertots: Hah xD Have to reboot then I think | 13:11 |
| tatertots | jtfidje: do what you must...just stop throttling | 13:12 |
| jtfidje | tatertots: brb then | 13:13 |

| jtfidje | tatertots: Listening | 13:35 |
| tatertots | jtfidje: if you do any of that "battery saving" crap you did before...you will break it..do you understand | 13:35 |

| jtfidje | tatertots: Understood o7 | 13:35 |
| ToBeCloud | lol battery saving again | 13:35 |
| ToBeCloud | We once had a funny discussion with a user who installed FreeDOS as their only OS for battery saving | 13:36 |
| jtfidje | ToBeCloud: Well - I'm not that dedicated to the cause xD | 13:37 |
| ToBeCloud | :D | 13:37 |
| tatertots | jtfidje: in terminal> nvidia-settings &>> ~/nip.pir | 13:38 |
| tatertots | jtfidje: you may not see anything....(well you will actually but ) | 13:38 |
| jtfidje | tatertots: Haha xD And you want me to click around the tabs to get a feel? | 13:39 |
| tatertots | jtfidje: yes...just look around | 13:39 |
| ToBeCloud | All I know is that the CPU "battery saving" power setting hurts battery life by reducing CPU clock frequency and making things run slower. Why would that hurt? Because CPU power consumption is near zero when it is completely unused. So you can *save* battery time by running your tasks as quickly as possible to have as much free time as possible | 13:39 |
| tatertots | jtfidje: check your temps and stuff with that cute little gauge nvidia put in there | 13:39 |
| jtfidje | tatertots: Okay - I've check the temps and stuff | 13:40 |
| tatertots | jtfidje: close it | 13:40 |
| jtfidje | tatertots: http://paste.ubuntu.com/26437312/ | 13:41 |

| tatertots | jtfidje: ok so this is what you're going to do...when you want to have long battery life | 13:42 |
| tatertots | jtfidje: toggle over to the intel gpu | 13:43 |
| tatertots | jtfidje: do you know how to "toggle" them? | 13:43 |
| jtfidje | tatertots: prime-select is what I used to do | 13:43 |
| tatertots | jtfidje: you should have seen the switch while you were looking around the nvidia utility.......there is also prime-select | 13:44 |
| jtfidje | tatertots: Hah yeah "PRIME Profiles" got it | 13:44 |
| jtfidje | tatertots: But you told me not to do this anymore | 13:44 |
| tatertots | jtfidje: pause | 13:45 |
| jtfidje | tatertots: || | 13:45 |
| tatertots | jtfidje: show me your command you use to toggle "verbatim". | 13:46 |
| jtfidje | tatertots: What? Sorry - what is verbatim? | 13:46 |
| tatertots | uh...exactly | 13:46 |
| cfhowlett | an adjective meaning "complete" | 13:46 |
| jtfidje | tatertots: prime-select intel | 13:47 |
| jtfidje | tatertots: prime-select nvidia | 13:47 |
| jtfidje | tatertots: is this what you mean? | 13:47 |
| tatertots | jtfidje: i want to make some changes to it | 13:47 |
| tatertots | jtfidje: yes perfect | 13:47 |
| tatertots | jtfidje: but i want you to do it a little differently | 13:48 |
| tatertots | jtfidje: try it like this right now | 13:48 |
| titou | i'm using a 2-in-2 laptop and i installed gnome on it. it well recognized its touchscreen and adapted the desktop unfortunately i have big troubles with caribou virtual keyboard... | 13:48 |
| titou | the virtual keyboard always appears on the screen when I touch it (this could be interesting when the laptop is in tablet mode (ie. without physical keyboard)). Moreover I cannot configure caribou (its layout), meta keys don't work etc. so is it possible to use another virtual keyboard? I didn't succeed to replace it with another one (for instance onboard) | 13:48 |
| titou | and is there a solution to temporaly disable virtual kyeboard when a physical keyboard is plugged or maybe throuh a button in the task bar? | 13:48 |
| tatertots | jtfidje: prime-select intel &>> ~/zip.pir | 13:49 |
| tatertots | jtfidje: and then do what you would normally do after doing that | 13:49 |
| tatertots | jtfidje: i'll wait to hear some feedback | 13:50 |
| jtfidje | tatertots: http://paste.ubuntu.com/26437348/ | 13:50 |

| azizLIGHT | I'm about to reinstall 17.10 but need help. I have windows 10 installed and want to dual boot, and I installed 17.10 along side it. But there's a problem and I need to reinstall it. Im not sure what option to pick in the live CD installer: 1) Reinstall Ubuntu 17.10, which will keep files/software but system wide settings will be cleared or 2) Erase Ubuntu 17.10 and reinstall, which says it will delete Ubuntu | 14:29 |
| azizLIGHT | 17.10 files..... Now my question is what will happen to windows if I choose 1) or 2) | 14:29 |
| donofrio | azizLIGHT, why dual boot when you can just run userspace natively WSL (http://www.tinyurl.com/donofrioworkdesk) am unable to run ubuntu at work so I use win10 as 15gb bootloader to ubuntu goodness ;) | 14:31 |
| === semeion is now known as mnemonic | ||
| xtron | hi, just wanna clear confusion, if we update a patch (which is previously signed-off by someone) do we keep his signed-off and append ours, or just keep our signature ? | 14:33 |
| azizLIGHT | Interesting donofrio, however I want to boot straight to Ubuntu and have the option to use windows if needed. I will be in Ubuntu 90% of the time | 14:34 |
| donofrio | azizLIGHT, I'm in ubuntu 97% of the time, other time is outlook and visio | 14:35 |
| azizLIGHT | I just want to reinstall Ubuntu without killing my windows dual boot | 14:37 |
| donofrio | k just sharing | 14:37 |
| azizLIGHT | If anyone can help me understand what happens when I pick those choices in the installer I'd appreciate it | 14:37 |
| azizLIGHT | No problem donofrio just trying to get something done hereb | 14:38 |
| EriC^^ | azizLIGHT: i'd use the manual partitioner, in 14.04 i once wiped the whole disk and installed ubuntu by mistake by choosing one of the 'reinstall' options | 14:38 |
| azizLIGHT | Ouch | 14:38 |
| azizLIGHT | Well i have ubuntu on sda5 and I tried to delete the partition, then not sure what to do | 14:38 |
| azizLIGHT | After that | 14:39 |
| EriC^^ | azizLIGHT: i'd use the manual partitioner, in 14.04 i once wiped the whole disk and installed ubuntu by mistake by choosing one of the 'reinstall' options | 14:39 |
| azizLIGHT | Yes | 14:39 |
| azizLIGHT | What should I do once I delete Ubuntu partition and have free space | 14:39 |
| azizLIGHT | Sda1 - sda4 are windows related | 14:40 |
| EriC^^ | no need to delete, just select the mount points to be used, and for the ubuntu partition click on format to erase it all | 14:40 |
| azizLIGHT | Here's what I'm looking at | 14:41 |
| azizLIGHT | EriC^^: https://i.imgur.com/pl01wPJ.jpg | 14:42 |
| azizLIGHT | There is no format button there | 14:42 |
| azizLIGHT | Whoops I put flash on | 14:43 |
| azizLIGHT | Without camera flash: https://i.imgur.com/qKooQZE.jpg | 14:43 |
| EriC^^ | next to /dev/sda5 there's a little box says format at the top | 14:44 |
| azizLIGHT | Oh the checkbox | 14:46 |
| azizLIGHT | I didn't see that | 14:46 |
| azizLIGHT | Ah I'm not able to select sda5 for format | 14:47 |
| azizLIGHT | I can't check the box | 14:47 |
| hateball | azizLIGHT: make sure you havent mounted the partition in a file manager or something | 14:49 |
| azizLIGHT | Nope I haven't mounted it | 14:51 |
| EriC^^ | azizLIGHT: double click /dev/sda5 and select '/' under mountpoint too, and double click /dev/sda2 and see if it says efi partition or something | 14:51 |
| EriC^^ | azizLIGHT: did you select the mountpoint? | 14:51 |
| EriC^^ | maybe that's why | 14:51 |
| azizLIGHT | I deleted sda5 and created a new partition of same size (primary partition, location; beginning of this space, with ext4) and assigned / mount point | 14:52 |
| azizLIGHT | Now I am able to select checkbox for sda5 to format | 14:53 |
| azizLIGHT | Where sda5 is the ext4 | 14:53 |
| azizLIGHT | Should I click install now: https://i.imgur.com/3UXLaKE.jpg | 14:54 |
| azizLIGHT | This will leave my windows partitions Sda1 to sda4 alone right? | 14:55 |
| azizLIGHT | EriC^^: sda2 says efi windows boot manager | 14:56 |
| skinux | I'm getting really tired of trying to solve this, but here is full output of trying to install MariaDB https://gist.github.com/skinuxgeek/dfab81bbf1183339fcc7e881c156fd2b | 14:57 |
| skinux | The real problem is MySQL won't start, MySQL has no config, but MariaDB config files do. | 14:57 |
| EriC^^ | azizLIGHT: checking | 14:59 |
| EriC^^ | azizLIGHT: that looks good | 15:00 |
| azizLIGHT | OK, about to hit install now | 15:01 |

| azizLIGHT | How do I do this auronandace | 15:13 |

| auronandace | azizLIGHT: see a little cog/settings icon on the login screen? | 15:13 |
| oerheks | icon next to your name, aziz | 15:13 |
| azizLIGHT | I don't actually auronandace. I clicked my username and I see a password prompt | 15:13 |
| azizLIGHT | But there's no cog | 15:14 |
| oerheks | azizLIGHT, then nvidia disabled wayland, as planned | 15:14 |
| azizLIGHT | OK so I'm on xorg automatically | 15:15 |
| oerheks | echo $DESKTOP_SESSION # shows gnome or gnome-wayland | 15:15 |
| oerheks | or: env | grep -i wayland # shows nothing ( =xorg ) or wayland | 15:16 |
| azizLIGHT | echo $DESKTOP_SESSION # says Ubuntu | 15:18 |
| azizLIGHT | Nothing shows up for the second command | 15:18 |
| oerheks | so, no wayland | 15:18 |
| azizLIGHT | Yup | 15:18 |
| lumo_e | Hello, I have ubuntu 17.04 on my desktop and I postponed upgrading a bit too much I fear, I'm getting a lot of problems in trying to updgrade to 17.10 | 15:20 |
| lumo_e | sudo apt-get update doesn't even work, because zesty repositories are disabled I suppose | 15:21 |
| lumo_e | I have run update-manager -c (the usual upgrade dialog) and I'm trying with that | 15:21 |
| auronandace | !eol | lumo_e | 15:21 |
| ubottu | lumo_e: 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/EOLUpgrades | 15:21 |
| oerheks | lumo_e, how about just run the update gui, and choose 'newer version available'?? | 15:21 |
| Deknos | can anyone work with git signing commits on ubuntu 16.04 with gnupg2? | 15:22 |
| lumo_e | yeah, I was trying that but the gui hangs at some point | 15:22 |
| lumo_e | I guess I'll change the apt sources | 15:22 |
| lumo_e | thanks auronandace | 15:22 |
| Darkhero | Do you have update-manager-core? | 15:24 |
| lumo_e | oh | 15:24 |
| lumo_e | now I see the problem | 15:24 |
| lumo_e | https://pastebin.com/xQQEUBxY | 15:25 |
| lumo_e | I have these lines at the and of the apt sources | 15:25 |
| lumo_e | all the other ones were correctly changed by the upgrade tool, and now have "artful" instead of "zesty" | 15:25 |
| lumo_e | but those seem wrong | 15:25 |
| lumo_e | and it was one of them the upgrade gui was complaining about | 15:25 |
| lumo_e | I wonder how should I fix them | 15:26 |
| lumo_e | welp, I'll just put some "artful" here and there | 15:28 |
| lumo_e | let's hope | 15:28 |
| lumo_e | wow, I'm bricking my system yay | 15:29 |
| nicomachus | lumo_e: what are you trying to do?? | 15:32 |
| blackflow | there's a difference between "bricking" and "breaking". Surely you aren't bricking by messing with sources.list. | 15:34 |

| harovali | hi, I'm running VirtualBox in 16.04 LTS, it normally runs fine, a w7 vm inside. Now there was a short blackout. Initially after restart, VB refused to initiate , saying vboxnet kernel module was not loaded, which seemed stange since it is loaded autimatically. After another system restart the module loaded fine, and VB opened. Then I try to open the VM, and it opens the window of the VM, but in black, and the system sort of | 15:37 |
| harovali | eley | 15:37 |
| harovali | any kind hint is welcome, | 15:38 |
| harovali | after complete hang, only power cycle will do | 15:38 |
| harovali | it never happened befor | 15:38 |
| guntbert | harovali: my first step: reset the VM | 15:38 |
| harovali | guntbert: with a special command ? | 15:39 |
| guntbert | harovali: with the vbox shortcut: <host>+R | 15:39 |
| harovali | guntbert: see, once it starts, it shows nothing, only a black window and the system will be hung , no input accepted | 15:40 |

| azizLIGHT | I installed 17.10, logged in, did sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade, rebooted, logged in, checked if I'm on xorg with echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE and saw x11, then I changed gpu driver from open source to proprietary nvidia-384 from software&updates additional drivers, rebooted, and now my computer won't boot past "loading initial ramdisk" after grub selection: https://imgur.com/a/aER29 so I tried the | 15:42 |
| azizLIGHT | other kernel options without "quiet splash" and they also do the same thing and hang at loading initial ramdisk. The only one that goes further is 4.13.0-21-generic. It changes something on the screen and then goes black and TV says "no signal". What exactly is going on and what can i do to fix it. Thanks | 15:42 |
| guntbert | harovali: well you could try the following: in vbox enable Remote desktop for this vm, then try to access it via RDP - you can get real vbox support in #vbox - Good luck! | 15:43 |
| thelinuxbox | does anyone know which part of the ubuntu iso to modify to prevent a blank screen on bootup of the iso, so once the distro is run it goes straight to the startup menu? | 15:46 |

| nacc | pavlos: skinux: are you migrating from mysql 5.6 to mariadb 10.0? | 17:06 |
| skinux | nacc: No, mysql has been 5.7 and mariadb 10.0. It was working fine, but something went wrong. I had to reinstall system and it kept my personal files intact. However, mysql/mariadb seems to be borked. | 17:07 |
| nacc | skinux: do you have the file '/usr/share/mysql/english/errmsg.sys' ? | 17:09 |
| skinux | MariaDB is just a drop-in, it runs on front of MySQL doesn't it? | 17:09 |
| nacc | skinux: uh, no | 17:09 |
| nacc | skinux: well, i mean it's a replacement, i don't know what you mean by 'in front of' | 17:09 |
| skinux | Yes, it is there. | 17:09 |

| skinux | It's added to the Gist | 17:11 |
| nacc | skinux: hrm, line 97 implies that mariadb can't read the file | 17:12 |

| Docfxit | oerheks, I'm trying to change the password. I held down the shift key while booting up to get into the rescue mode. It didn't give me any options. | 17:13 |

| skinux | Umm, maybe so. | 17:16 |
| nacc | skinux: yeah that's nonsense | 17:16 |
| nacc | skinux: they are both mysql implementations | 17:16 |
| nacc | you run one or the other | 17:16 |
| nacc | your logs are indicating you are trying to run mysql 5.6, fwiw | 17:16 |

| RonaldsMazitis | I'm just curios why it's rc 6 | 17:37 |
| joshua__ | lol | 17:37 |
| nacc | RonaldsMazitis: in 16.04, only wine 1.6 is present | 17:37 |
| skinux | I thought I was installing Ampps as a packaged application, not taking over existing mysql | 17:37 |
| nacc | skinux: well that's your issue | 17:37 |
| joshua__ | gyth | 17:37 |

| TJ- | gopal: oerheks The problem here is the HP laptop has hybrid Intel/AMD GPUs, AMD GPU is claimed by both radeon and amdgpu but radeon is the one that binds (amdgpu won't bind for some reason), but it seems there's no way to switch GPUs or disable AMD GPU for power-saving | 17:51 |
| oerheks | gopal, not supported, AMD Radeon™ R5 340 only http://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/AMDGPU-PRO-Driver-for-Linux-Release-Notes.aspx | 17:51 |
| gopal | it is same | 17:51 |

| TJ- | oerheks: I spent several hours on it but couldn't solve it, but it came down to the kerne's amdgpu module claiming a modalias matching the GPU but not binding to it, and without amdgpu kernel module the AMDGPU-PRO userland drivers won't work of course | 17:54 |

| nacc | skinux: but, to be clear, those warnings (the last two lines in the gist) do indicate your system is not stock ubuntu any more | 19:04 |
| Docfxit | nacc, It was mounted when I booted into Ubuntu. | 19:05 |
| nacc | skinux: you have a local libQtCore.so file, which is empty | 19:05 |

| nacc | skinux: dunno | 19:05 |

| nacc | Docfxit: check `mount` to see what is mounted | 19:05 |
| nacc | skinux: ... no | 19:05 |
| nacc | skinux: that won't touch files in /usr/local | 19:05 |

| nacc | skinux: it should not | 19:09 |
| nacc | Docfxit: you can use the tab key to automcomplete it | 19:10 |
| nacc | Docfxit: you can shorten the name of the mount point (not the drive, the drive is /dev/sda2) | 19:10 |
| Docfxit | nacc, How can I shorten the name of the mount point to UbuntuHD? | 19:12 |
| nacc | Docfxit: is it super-important to do right now? you would normal modify it in /etc/fstab (I'm sure there is a graphical way to do it, but i don't know how) | 19:13 |

| mezod | nicomachus: i tried it in 16 and it works, but i'll pm you for doublechecking too, is it ok? | 19:19 |
| oerheks | any ubuntu version would do i guess, else it could be a gdm issue | 19:19 |

| Bashing-om | Docfxit: If it is the intent to clone the operating system, there are better tools for that purpose .

| mohamed_ | hello | 19:50 |
| UbAh | looking for advice on what to do when do-release-upgrade fails | 19:50 |
| UbAh | fresh install is not an option | 19:50 |
| mohamed_ | i need help plz | 19:50 |
| UbAh | mohamed_, state the problem | 19:51 |
| Bashing-om | mohamed_: What release are you upgrading from ? | 19:51 |
| mohamed_ | i install ubuntu16.04 | 19:51 |
| UbAh | Bashing-om, I think you ment to respond to me? | 19:51 |
| UbAh | oh we are both upgrading? | 19:51 |
| Bashing-om | UbAh: Correct . And - what is the nature of the problem you are facing ? | 19:53 |
| mohamed_ | and now i can't enter to bios | 19:53 |
| mohamed_ | what i shuld do now | 19:54 |
| mohamed_ | bashing my release is 16.04 | 19:55 |
| UbAh | Bashing-om, upgrading from server version 9.10 to 14.04 | 19:55 |
| UbAh | we have some rails and perl rbs that we dont want to rewrite or break so they have asked if i can do an upgrade to get to the version we want | 19:56 |
| Bashing-om | mohamed_: In the case of bios, that has little to do with the operating system . I can not advise on bios matters as each and every manufacture implements different . | 19:56 |
| nacc | UbAh: ... 9.10 is so past eol | 19:56 |
| UbAh | yes I know | 19:56 |
| UbAh | nacc, | 19:56 |
| UbAh | trying to rectify that | 19:57 |
| mohamed_ | bashing-om but the issu start after i install ubuntu | 19:58 |
| UbAh | mohamed_, I came after you stated it, but what is the issue? | 19:58 |
| Bashing-om | UbAh: In all honesty, not like to sycceed . Too mcuh has changed since release 9.10 .. and will be a long hard road to get to 14.04. path 9.10 -> 10.04 -> 12.04 0> 14.04 .. all in between are EOL . | 19:58 |
| Bashing-om | !eol | UbAh | 19:59 |
| ubottu | UbAh: 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/EOLUpgrades | 19:59 |
| mohamed_ | upah after i install ubuntu 16.04 i can't enter to bios now | 20:00 |
| UbAh | mohamed_, you cant hit the key to bring up the bios? | 20:00 |
| TJ- | UbAh: Would you be able to migrate your 9.10 root fs into a container, or virtualise it so the host is on LTS ? | 20:00 |
| === gopal is now known as s10gopal | ||
| nacc | UbAh: it seems *way* easier to just backup your 9.10 system, then reinstall | 20:01 |
| nacc | UbAh: upgrading is really just going to be hard to do | 20:01 |
| mohamed_ | yes i cant | 20:01 |
| TJ- | UbAh: is the aim to preserve compatibility in 9.10, or obtain compatibility with 14.04 ? Your comment was unclear to me | 20:01 |
| UbAh | TJ-, part of this is to harden against things like meltdown/spectre and from my reading even the vm in a hardened server is vulnerable | 20:02 |
| ioria | mohamed_, did you install in uefi mode or legacy bios/csm ? dual boot or sigle boot ? | 20:02 |
| mohamed_ | i instalid in singl boot | 20:03 |
| ioria | mohamed_, uefi mode or legacy bios/csm ? | 20:03 |
| xfceone | may be uefi | 20:03 |
| TJ- | UbAh: if you're not reliant on the kernel version in your applications then containerising it would be an option, then you could have the host on 16.04 with HWE kernel | 20:03 |

| ori_ | anyone here | 20:04 |
| UbAh | nacc, TJ-, the team behind the code base is no longer around so I was asked to see if I can find a route to upgrade to an LTS version. There is a worry about trying to recreate all the rail/ruby perl rbs and other lib things | 20:05 |

| ori_ | anyone can help me?? | 20:05 |

| === Ormm is now known as Guest32975 | ||
| TJ- | UbAh: so containerise it and it stays unchanged but runs on a supported/patched kernel | 20:05 |

| ori_ | i have a galaxy tab 3 10.1 and i dont know if i can install any kind of linux or ubuntu on it is it possible | 20:05 |

| UbAh | TJ-, upgrade the kernel in the vm too? | 20:06 |
| nacc | degenerate: open source nvidia driver | 20:06 |

| Quenz | tatertots If you're still there, to remind you, last time I was here, with a fresh Ubuntu Gnome 16.04 LTS install, I changed drivers to nvidia-340, clicked 'Apply changes' in the 'Additional Drivers' window, got a system program problem dialogue (or something like that), was about to type 'inxi -Fxxprzc0|pastebinit' for you, but had to leave. I turned the computer off. It's back on now. Same flashing text on boot issue. I hit ctrl+alt+F1 to shell | 20:49 |
| Quenz | successfully. I typed your command, but it just gives me a flashing _ on the next line. It's been like that for a few minutes now. | 20:49 |

| billythekido | Hi guys. I just tried to update to the latest kernel that Ubuntu pushed to 17.10 and the update got stuck. | 21:20 |
| billythekido | run-parts: executing /etc/kernel/header_postinst.d/dkms 4.13.0-31-generic /boot/vmlinuz-4.13.0-31-generic | 21:20 |
| billythekido | Progress: [ 65%] | 21:20 |
| billythekido | anyone could advise? | 21:21 |
| SimonNL | Quenz: hold down left shift during boot from the moment you press power button till you see "Entering Grub" appear in top left corner of the screen | 21:21 |
| TJ- | Quenz: SimonNL GRUB uses Escape key detection now, because when on EFI it can't read the state of the Shift/Ctrl/Alt I/O register bits | 21:23 |
| SimonNL | oops | 21:23 |
| SimonNL | I'm on old version | 21:23 |
| SimonNL | derivative | 21:23 |
| Quenz | SimonNL I'm in the GRUB bash now. | 21:26 |
| Quenz | That's what happened when I held down esc | 21:27 |
| SimonNL | with my limited knowledge I would say thats the wrong place, should be grub menu | 21:27 |
| nacc | billythekido: it might take a while for dkms to finish (are you sure it's stuck?) | 21:28 |
| Quenz | Yeah I thought so too | 21:28 |
| Quenz | Imma try again | 21:28 |
| billythekido | nacc: yes definitely :( | 21:28 |
| billythekido | I stopped it, dpkg --configure -a and wait again | 21:29 |
| billythekido | I don't see also any utilization on cpus from apt or other apps | 21:30 |
| TJ- | Quenz: you have to repeatedly tap Escape not hold it down | 21:31 |
| nacc | billythekido: hrm | 21:31 |
| billythekido | can you tell if it actually half-installed/configured the kernel based on what I posted? At this point I don't know if I'm going to boot on restart | 21:31 |
| nacc | billythekido: you wouldn't see it from apt, you'd see it from dkms | 21:31 |
| TJ- | Quenz: because GRUB has to detect a key-press event, unlike with the Shift/Ctrl/Alt method which stores current position in bit falgs | 21:31 |
| Quenz | Booting to 4.10.0-28-generic now | 21:31 |

| billythekido | is not it an issue that currently I'm also running 2 "dkms_autoinstaller start 4.13.0-31-generic" ? | 21:42 |
| Quenz | Bashing-om Some other people told me to switch to a different kernel, that's why I'm in that. | 21:42 |
| nacc | yeah, i believe the workaround is to kill plymouth, but i'm not sure if that works or not | 21:42 |

| nacc | jtreminio: 'mirror'? | 21:47 |
| billythekido | nacc: thanks a lot for helping me out of this :) | 21:47 |
| jtreminio | For example, I use a ppa that only keeps last version, removes others as soon as they're added. ie 7.1.1 is added, he removes 7.1.0 | 21:47 |

| billythekido | nacc: it seems successful. I'll reboot and hope for the best | 21:49 |

| billythekido | nacc: what info do I gather to report? | 21:49 |
| jtreminio | nacc: aha, I see | 21:49 |
| nacc | billythekido: i would just put what package was hanging in the logs | 21:49 |
| jtreminio | So if I want to keep an archived mirror I need to keep it off of launchpad? | 21:49 |

| nacc | billythekido: np, gl! | 21:50 |

| new_user123 | hi guys | 22:41 |
| new_user123 | I'm trying to pin the kernel from trusty, because I need the kernel 3.13 | 22:41 |
| new_user123 | how do I go about it? | 22:42 |
| nacc | new_user123: you are on trusty? | 22:42 |
| new_user123 | no | 22:43 |
| new_user123 | i'm on artful | 22:43 |
| memphisto | maybe trying : sudo apt-mark hold kernel 3.13 or something | 22:43 |
| new_user123 | here is my /etc/apt/preference http://termbin.com/p66t | 22:43 |
| nacc | new_user123: then no, don't do that | 22:43 |
| nacc | new_user123: if you need trusty's kernel, use a VM | 22:43 |
| new_user123 | memphisto, ty, i'll try that. brb | 22:43 |
| tatertots | Quenz: yesterday i discussed a plan with you, and you either forgot the plan or something, but in any event you failed to execute | 22:43 |
| Quenz | Alright then | 22:44 |
| nacc | memphisto: please don't suggest such things | 22:44 |
| nacc | totally unsupported | 22:44 |
| ahmad | hey new | 22:44 |
| tatertots | Quenz: at this point you don't have a lot of other options but to do exactly as i said "verbatim" | 22:44 |
| new_user123 | memphisto, sholud it be sudo apt-mark hold linux-image-3.13 ? | 22:44 |
| new_user123 | btw, I don't have 3.13 installed atm | 22:45 |
| tatertots | Quenz: any deviation from the plan will result in a loop of failure...trust me | 22:45 |
| nacc | new_user123: no, it wouldn't and no, you wouldn't have | 22:45 |
| nacc | new_user123: so, again, don't do that | 22:45 |
| nacc | new_user123: why do you need the 14.04.1 kernel? | 22:45 |
| tatertots | Quenz: search your feelings...you know i'm telling you the truth | 22:45 |
| Quenz | I guess I forgot the exact plan | 22:45 |
| new_user123 | nacc, i don't understand your advice. I need 3.13 because newer kernels don't support my graphics card properly. | 22:45 |
| nacc | new_user123: then you need 14.04, not just hte kernel | 22:45 |
| nacc | new_user123: so reinstall 14.04 | 22:45 |
| Quenz | You're saying if we go around in circles we won't get anywhere, I understand | 22:45 |
| new_user123 | nacc, no, I don't need 14.04, it's too old. Most packages have not been updated since 2014 | 22:46 |
| nacc | new_user123: ... well, it came out in 2014, so of course | 22:46 |
| new_user123 | so, how do I pin the kernel to trusty? | 22:46 |
| nacc | new_user123: look, you have two options, 1) install 14.04; or 2) run a newer kernel | 22:46 |
| nacc | new_user123: running the trusty kernel on non-trusty is not supported | 22:46 |
| nacc | and you should *not* do it. | 22:47 |
| new_user123 | nacc, i'm okay with that, already tried it out | 22:47 |
| nacc | new_user123: with what? | 22:47 |
| new_user123 | nacc, with the way 3.13 functions with artful. | 22:47 |
| tatertots | Quenz: i need to be clear this time around...if you deviate from design at all...you will fail..and fail "infinity"...do you understand? | 22:47 |
| new_user123 | nacc, 2) is not an option, my screen is borked | 22:47 |
| new_user123 | okay, anyway, supposing it was a different situation and I was asking how to get the artful kernel on 14.04 | 22:49 |
| new_user123 | how do I go about it? | 22:50 |
| Quenz | tatertots I've been trying to follow you as best I can. If you're sick of trying to help me, that's totally fine. If you want to keep trying to help me, that's fine too. | 22:50 |
| new_user123 | memphisto, it didn't work... Could you please elaborate on that command? | 22:51 |
| memphisto | https://askubuntu.com/questions/678630/how-can-i-avoid-kernel-updates | 22:51 |
| new_user123 | memphisto, am I right I first need to install that kernel? | 22:54 |
| === daniel__ is now known as dev0drps | ||
| memphisto | yes, but i don't know if you have it in the repos now | 22:54 |
| memphisto | maybe you ll need to get it from somewhere else | 22:54 |
| new_user123 | memphisto, i have added trusty repos in the sources | 22:55 |
| memphisto | dont remove the current kernels | 22:55 |
| memphisto | just in case | 22:55 |
| memphisto | and do backup :) | 22:56 |
| new_user123 | memphisto, I don't like the output... http://okturing.com/src/2054/body | 22:57 |
| nacc | new_user123: aloso not supported | 22:57 |
| nacc | new_user123: please stop asking for such terrible combinations | 22:58 |
| nacc | new_user123: if you need an old kernel to use your display which would imply it's an old display device, then use an old release | 22:58 |
| nacc | new_user123: 14.04 is supported until 2019 | 22:58 |
| nacc | new_user123: you do not mix distributions, as it tends to break things | 22:58 |
| metastable | s/tends to// | 22:59 |
| new_user123 | nacc, it's a new display device. | 22:59 |
| memphisto | he speaks the truth | 22:59 |
| memphisto | it all looks fine | 22:59 |
| nacc | memphisto: right | 22:59 |
| subcool | Ok,. whats the deal. Kwin_x11 and plasmashell and eating all my memory | 22:59 |
| memphisto | do install linux-source-3.13.0 linux-tools | 23:00 |
| memphisto | you might need to build some kernel modules | 23:00 |
| subcool | memphisto, was that to me? | 23:00 |
| memphisto | oh sorry it was for new_user123 | 23:00 |
| subcool | kk.. just making sure.. its ok. | 23:00 |
| nacc | new_user123: maybe rather than doing totally insane things like trying to run a trusty kernel on 17.10, tell us what is wrong with your device with 17.10? | 23:02 |
| tatertots | Quenz: not sick of you my friend..just trying to establish "effective" communication to lower the statical odds of communication failure(s). | 23:02 |
| mr3_j0hn | hello | 23:02 |
| Budgii | Hello. | 23:02 |
| new_user123 | nacc, sides of my screen are cut off. | 23:02 |
| new_user123 | nacc, 100px left and 100px right | 23:02 |
| tatertots | Quenz: because i believe what we had yesterday when you failed to execute my plan can be classified as a "communication failure" | 23:03 |
| new_user123 | memphisto, http://okturing.com/src/2055/body doesn't look too good... Btw, at this moment I only have trusty repos in my sources | 23:03 |
| memphisto | new_user123: didn't put * after the kernel version | 23:04 |
| memphisto | or exact versoin of the kernel youve installed | 23:05 |
| tatertots | Quenz: now you know where you stand and your fate and future | 23:05 |
| new_user123 | memphisto, i've only installed 4.4 | 23:05 |
| === Quenz_ is now known as Quenz | ||
| nacc | new_user123: what?? you were on 17.10 and switched to trusty sources?? | 23:05 |
| nacc | new_user123: and 4.4 is not 17.10 anyways | 23:05 |
| Quenz | tatertots I'm not exactly sure what that means. | 23:05 |
| pirx | i have a service running which has "ulimit -n 5120" set in its startup-script. but when i check /proc/<pid>/limits for that process, it has max open files set to 1048576. how can this be? | 23:06 |
| memphisto | it means marihuana | 23:06 |
| new_user123 | nacc, okay, it's 4.13 | 23:06 |
| new_user123 | sudo apt install linux-image-4.10.0-27-generic | 23:06 |
| nacc | new_user123: what?? | 23:06 |
| nacc | new_user123: you are doing some seriously wrong things, please stop. | 23:06 |
| nacc | new_user123: if you are on 4.13, don't install the 4.10 kernel | 23:06 |
| new_user123 | sorry, wrong copy buffer... Linux pc 4.13.0-21 | 23:06 |
| new_user123 | nacc, i'm trying to install 3.13 | 23:06 |
| nacc | new_user123: yes, and i've explained to you, no. | 23:07 |
| nacc | new_user123: don't do that. | 23:07 |
| new_user123 | nacc, why? it works in chroot | 23:07 |
| nacc | new_user123: what do you mean it works in chroot? you don't run a different kernel in a chroot. | 23:07 |
| nacc | new_user123: and, tbh, if you don't see why you don't mix releases of ubuntu, especially the kernel, then you shouldn't be doing it for sure! | 23:08 |
| new_user123 | chrooted system does. it has to, because the host has 3.13 and the chroot is artful | 23:08 |
| dev0drps | how do i register in the python group? | 23:08 |
| nacc | new_user123: you are not running a different kernel in a chroot | 23:09 |
| tatertots | Quenz: this is you 48 hours ago http://termbin.com/g584 this is you today http://termbin.com/yjab | 23:09 |
| new_user123 | nacc, system that runs in chroot has to use the hosts kernel | 23:10 |
| new_user123 | which happens to be 3.13 | 23:10 |
| tatertots | Quenz: do you see any patterns? | 23:10 |
| new_user123 | that is, on my old machine | 23:10 |
| nacc | new_user123: so you are claiming to be runnig an artful desktop in a chroot on a 14.04 host? | 23:10 |
| tatertots | Quenz: i see a few | 23:11 |
| === ken is now known as Guest37206 | ||
| Quenz | tatertots Some similar errors, yeah. Like I said, we haven't really got anywhere so far. | 23:12 |
| new_user123 | nacc, i was running it, yes. to be precise, it was an LXC container. | 23:12 |
| tatertots | Quenz: you should keep those links ....yes the two links above...I'd hate for some poor unsuspecting #Ubuntu helper to reinvent the wheel | 23:12 |
| Quenz | I will keep them | 23:13 |
| nacc | new_user123: a LXC container is not a chroot | 23:13 |
| nacc | new_user123: but whatever | 23:13 |
| nacc | new_user123: so you claim to be running an artful desktop in a LXC container? | 23:13 |
| new_user123 | yes, what's wrong about that? | 23:14 |
| nacc | new_user123: then why do you need to do anything? | 23:14 |
| new_user123 | nacc, because it's extremely awkward and time consuming to get the normal desktop experience | 23:15 |
| ca_cabotage | hey all, idk of a more specific place to ask this? trying to connect to lubuntu via xrdp from windows 10. It connects, and starts to load desktop - but then i get an error that says "due to protocol error the session will be disconnected" anyone know of xrdp troubleshooting advice? | 23:18 |
| Docfxit | Does anyone know the command syntax for rsync? I have all the information to create it at https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2383068&p=13733102#post13733102 | 23:20 |
| nacc | Docfxit: `man rsync` ? | 23:21 |
| Jordan_U | nacc: This channel will not support running an Artful desktop on a Trusty kernel. If you continue to waste people | 23:22 |
| nacc | Jordan_U: i assume for new_user123 ? | 23:23 |
| Jordan_U | nacc: ... waste people's time asking about it I will remove you from the channel. | 23:23 |
| Docfxit | nacc, I have seen the manual. I need someone with a little expertise with rsync. | 23:23 |
| nacc | Docfxit: ok, what is your specific question? | 23:23 |
| Jordan_U | nacc: Yes, sorry. | 23:23 |
| nacc | Jordan_U: it's cool | 23:23 |
| Docfxit | nacc, I need someone to create the command line for the one example I have on the link I provided. After that I can create all the other lines I need. | 23:25 |
| nacc | Docfxit: did you try it? | 23:27 |
| nacc | Docfxit: wait, what?, c#14 | 23:27 |
| plut0 | X stopped working for me, using nouveau with no xorg.conf. Here is the log, https://pastebin.com/Ba5kZvRT Any ideas? | 23:27 |
| Docfxit | nacc, Glad you saw post #14 | 23:28 |
| nacc | Docfxit: so are trying to rsync from a local disk to two locations? | 23:29 |
| nacc | Docfxit: oh wait, no you are trying to rsync two locations to a single destination? | 23:30 |
| nacc | Docfxit: your c14 has three parameters to rsync | 23:33 |
| nacc | Docfxit: three path parameters | 23:33 |

| new_user_123 | Jordan_U, http://termbin.com/5lh6 | 23:37 |
| new_user_123 | maybe it's something with CRTC settins? | 23:38 |
| new_user_123 | or can it be fixed somehow by or injecting an EDID or adding a modeline? | 23:38 |
| tatertots | Quenz: i'm here | 23:38 |

| Jordan_U | new_user_123: Do you know how to select the Xorg rather than Wayland session at the login screen? | 23:40 |
| new_user_123 | Jordan_U, no. It's lubuntu so I suppose I'm running X | 23:40 |
| Jordan_U | new_user_123: Indeed. Please pastebin the output of "xrandr". | 23:41 |
| new_user_123 | http://termbin.com/uxnr | 23:41 |
| subcool | Ok,. whats the deal. Kwin_x11 and plasmashell and eating all my memory | 23:42 |
| nacc | subcool: are you running kubuntu? or did you install neon or something | 23:42 |
| Jordan_U | new_user_123: Can you tell if your screen is cut off when looking through the BIOS menus? | 23:45 |
| new_user_123 | Jordan_U, got a pretty old bios version, it's not cut off but is 800x600 or something. | 23:45 |
| new_user_123 | Jordan_U, however, the screen is indeed borked in grub menu already. | 23:46 |
| subcool | nacc, kubuntu. I just tried to run a VM, but- because soo much of my memory is being allocated, i cant even do that. | 23:46 |
| new_user_123 | Jordan_U, and this issue is non existent in windows and linux with kernel <=3.13 | 23:47 |
| nacc | new_user_123: that would imply not related to the kernel (grub isn't running your kernel yet) | 23:49 |
| new_user_123 | nacc, then why dont I have this problem with kernel 3.13? | 23:49 |
| new_user_123 | and any kernel older than 3.13 | 23:50 |
| nacc | new_user_123: You have actively tested artful with a 3.13 host kernel? (not artful in a container or chroot on a trusty host) | 23:50 |
| nacc | new_user_123: afaict, you have not, so I think you need to check your assumptions | 23:50 |
| new_user_123 | nacc, i gave up on the idea. | 23:51 |
| new_user_123 | i have zero experience running an artful system with 3.13 | 23:51 |
| new_user_123 | (apart from chroot and containers) | 23:51 |
| nacc | new_user_123: so then you don't know at all what the root cause is | 23:51 |
| nacc | new_user_123: so let's drop that line of reasoning | 23:51 |
| new_user_123 | nacc, but I do. | 23:52 |
| new_user_123 | nacc, i don't have this issue on 14.04 | 23:52 |
| new_user_123 | with 3.13 kernel | 23:52 |
