lotuspsychjeim getting unmet dependecys and didnt add external ppa's https://hastebin.com/tunuzeyuvi.rb08:25
FauxIt can also happen if you have older libraries installed. Or it could just be apt being terrible at dependency resolution. Generally you can just remove a randomly selected offending package, and try installing it again afterwards.08:29
lotuspsychjeFaux: tried to pyrge that package but no dice08:29
lotuspsychjepurge08:29
FauxDid you remove the :i386 version?08:30
lotuspsychjeyeah08:30
* Faux shrugs. Try aptitude, or wait a bit to see if it's an actual problem.08:31
lotuspsychjeFaux: whats the dpkg method of purge force again?08:31
FauxPardon?08:31
lotuspsychjeinstead of purge with apt, purge with dpkg to solve issues08:32
lotuspsychjedpkg -P nvm08:35
lotuspsychjehmm doesnt wanna purge neither08:36
lotuspsychjeFaux: fixxed it https://askubuntu.com/questions/873565/broken-libperl5-package-when-trying-to-install-updates09:14
FauxEw. :)09:14
FauxI'm getting audio dropouts using Google Maps' 3d/birdseye view in official Chrome stable.11:57
sweinjust upgraded/dist-upgraded my 18.04 desktop, boots to just past the ubuntu boot load in screen but display manager with login won't load14:31
sweincan't drop to single user mode, just a mouse cursor and blank screen14:35
FauxGpu driver has probably crashed X. Booting rescue mode from grub will let you get a shell.14:37
sweinholding shift on reboot didn't get me into grub menu, weird14:39
sweinI'm on an intel NUC skulltrail btw14:39
sweinany other ideas to get into grub menu on reboot? holding left shift isn't working14:46
FauxBoot from a usb stick, edit the grub config to have a non-hidden timeout. (not a serious suggestion)14:47
FauxSometimes keyboards don't work during early boot; mobo does'nt have a weird "bios keyboard" usb port or something?14:47
sweinI'm using my ergodox infinity, but it works normally as other keyboards. I can try using another around my office14:50
FauxIt's a mobo problem, not a keyboard problem.14:50
sweinI'll check bios for options14:52
sweinFaux: Thank you for helping14:52
CoJaBoAnyone know why networking would stop working after changing a SATA card?14:53
sweinhit the card? or cables?14:56
CoJaBoIt's built-in14:56
sweinIRQ conflict ?:P14:56
CoJaBoOnly thing I can think of is it changed the name somehow14:56
sweinsdX shouldn't affect network interfaces14:57
CoJaBoI can do ifconfig enp42s0 [IP], but then I still cant get to the internet, just local14:57
CoJaBoAnd even then, it takes ~10 minutes to boot, since it waits a LONG time for network to come up14:58
FauxOh, the card is working, but you don't get internet.15:00
Faux"dhclient -v enp42s0" will probably fix it. You need to argue with whatever network tool you're using (networkmanager, /etc/network/interfaces, nplan), though.15:01
CoJaBoFaux: What is the default, and how do i fix it to find the card again without doing this manually every boot?15:04
FauxThe default depends on what phase of moon you installed in, and I know nothing about them. :)15:04
CoJaBowhats the current default then?15:04
Fauxnplan/netplan is the new default.15:05
FauxUnless they've given up on that.15:06
CoJaBohow do i use that?15:07
CoJaBo/etc/netplan/01-netcfg.yaml lists a device name that doesn't exist15:08
* Faux has no idea, as the upgrade has not broken it, so has left it alone.15:09
CoJaBounrealted, but wtf is this File descriptor 3 (pipe:[44189]) leaked on vgs invocation. Parent PID 7115: grub-install15:09
CoJaBoGoing to fix the name there, hope, and reboot i guess..15:10
Fauxhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/Netplan suggests running "generate"15:10
FauxUnless it's done on boot.15:11
CoJaBoDunno; it booted this time, so something worked15:14
CoJaBoFaux: I upgraded the BIOS while troubleshooting the SATA card issue. The firmware manages the ethernet, apparently, so that's probably what changed the device name15:15
CoJaBoFaux: Huge thanks on the netplan thing tho, I would've never found that in a trillion years =D15:17

sweinis 18.04 lightdm?16:18
sweinI'm trying to fix intel driver crashing x,16:18
sweingdm I googled sorry16:19
BenLubar__Does Bionic require some new CPU feature that Xenial didn't?16:21
naccBenLubar__: seems unlikely16:21
BenLubar__Hmm, I wonder why my headless Linux machine suddenly becomes unresponsive until I hold the power button :/16:22
BenLubarhmm, it appears to have gone into some kind of sleep mode, since when I pushed the power button it immediately started up and I was able to connect over ssh on the first try16:25
sweinwhat a horrible expereience, can't even get to proper terminal to reinstall intel drivers and displaymanagers16:34
naccBenLubar: interesting16:40
naccswein: 'intel driver' ?16:41
BenLubarthis probably isn't related, but after I rebooted the machine at the end of the upgrade process it didn't come back up (I think that's a problem that existed before I upgraded, though. Something to do with misconfigured bios.)16:42
BenLubar_ok, this is super weird, but... could my computer be running two copies of Ubuntu on the same filesystem simultaneously somehow?16:45
naccBenLubar: not really, no.16:45
BenLubar_I'm gonna try sudo shutdown -h now and see if the computer shuts off or just goes into standby mode again16:45
naccBenLubar: I guess it depends on what you mean by 'running'? :)16:45
BenLubarthe message about "Your Hardware Enablement Stack (HWE) is supported until April 2019." is something I can ignore, right?16:51
BenLubarthe documentation seems to imply that the message is only there because I'm on a prerelease version of Bionic16:51
naccBenLubar: where do you see that?16:53
BenLubarnacc: when I log in over SSH16:56
naccBenLubar: so from the motd?16:56
BenLubaryes16:56
naccBenLubar: hrm, I don't see that from a login locally16:56
naccBenLubar: lsb_release -a definitely says it's 18.04 ?16:56
BenLubarRelease:        18.0416:57
naccBenLubar: ok :)17:01
naccBenLubar: dunno where that comes from then, as you obviously don't have a HWE stack17:02
TJ-it comes via /usr/lib/update-notifier/update-motd-hwe-eol17:13
naccTJ-: interesting17:16
sweinif 4.15 kernel booting of 18.04 freezes before getting to login screen, what would I do to fix it's display issues? I booted of the 4.13 kernel and did a dpkg-reconfigure gdm3 and rechose gdm3 (not lightdm) 17:17
sweinare there packages I can --reinstall to fix booting to 4.15?17:17
naccswein: does it "freeze" or do you hear the cpus spin up, or something else?17:18
naccswein: oh it works ok with 4.13?17:18
sweinyeah ubuntu splash screen loads, then when it normally gives you a login screen, I only see a mouse cursor.17:18
naccswein: yeah i just had this issue17:19
naccswein: (I think)17:19
sweinI did a upgrade/dist-upgrade this morning. so it likely mangled my display driver/manager up in regards to 4.15 kernel17:19
naccswein: can you reboot with nomodeset and see if it works? do you have an external monitor connected?17:19
sweintwo externals. it's an Intel NUC17:19
naccswein: hrm17:19
naccswein: ok, so i had somethjing symptomatically very similar17:19
naccswein: it turned out aht wayland was running and was (i think) crashing/pegging the cpu17:19
sweincould be that17:20
naccswein: check (from 4.13) your /etc/gdm3/custom.conf17:20
sweinI'll remove weyland17:20
naccswein: and disable the wayland option, see if that 'fixess' it17:20
sweincustom.conf doesn't have any options uncommented17:21
swein#waylandEnable=false it's commented out17:21
naccswein: right, the one that disables wayland is commented out by default17:21
naccswein: so uncomment it :)17:21
sweinahh17:21
naccswein: it's super confusing17:21
nacc(at least to me)17:21
sweinok rebooting to see if 4.15 loads now17:22

ubottuLaunchpad bug 1753576 in xorg (Ubuntu) "GDM freeze" [Undecided,Incomplete]17:22
naccswein: --^ taht's the bug i filed17:22
nacci'm curious if you see the same issue, and why it's triggering for only some17:22
sweinnacc: excellent , I'm booted in17:22
naccswein: symptomatically, ihad the same problem, splash showed up on both monitors, then all of a sudden the primary laptop display shows the mouse and the normal greeter background, but then the cpu starts to peg17:23
sweinthat's what happens when you dist-upgrade from 17.10 to 18.04 and keep weyland around17:23
naccand the secondary display still shows a frozen splash17:23
naccswein: right, but this was working fine for me until monday morning when i rebooted17:23
nacci've been on 18.04 for > 1 month17:23
naccso i think they fubar'd something17:23
naccsuch that the greeter session defaulted to wayland which simply doesn't work17:23
naccbut i'm not 100% sure17:23
sweinI apprecaite you helping, I'd of never thought to do that17:23
naccswein: np, please subscribe to that bug and indicate you hit the same issue with the sam eworakround17:24
nacc*same*17:24
sweinwill do17:24
naccswein: thanks!17:24
nacci'll try and get the desktop folks to prioritize it, it seems likely they'd have a NUC around to use17:24
sweinI don't know if it's intel specific. it was obviously weyland related17:25
sweinWhy are they choosing to axe weyland already?17:26
naccswein: yeah, i wonder since you have remote access to yours already, you might be able to get the debugging daniel asked for in teh bug17:26
naccswein: heh, it's just not the default, it's still there17:26
naccswein: and because of stuff like this, i expect (it's just not readyh)17:26
naccyou can't do remote desktop at all (it's incompatible with the model), etc. -- some key features17:26
sweinI'm only running 18.04 develop to test for server changes. I'll need to upgrade my org to 18.04 eventually17:27
sweinthanks again for your help17:27
naccswein: np17:38
