| obonto | loG Folder has many contents,which one should i check? | 00:29 |
| Peyam | xet7: http://i.imgur.com/s8jdaso.png | 00:29 |
| adrian_1908 | yusuf: that looks fine indeed. Are you sure JAVA_HOME is correct. You said it worked temporarily, but maybe that was because you exported it via a terminal command? | 00:30 |
| xet7 | Peyam: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) build-essential | 00:30 |
| xet7 | Peyam: sudo /sbin/vboxconfig | 00:30 |
| yusuf | adrian_1908, yes, i export it using the terminal. | 00:30 |
| adrian_1908 | yusuf: generally, exporting variables such as this is better done in ~/.profile, as you only want it to happen once. So try export JAVA_HOME="/usr/local/jdk-9.0.4/" inside that file instead. | 00:31 |
| xet7 | Peyam: then start virtualbox as root again | 00:31 |
| Peyam | xet7: https://pastebin.com/gmAG8pZx | 00:31 |
| adrian_1908 | yusuf: it should then stick for the entire session (requires OS restart) | 00:32 |

| Volund | So question, guys. Do modern distribs of Linux like Ubuntu here support Parallel Port connections to REALLY OLD printers. I mean, REALLY old printers. The kinds of printers that might be little more than typewriters linked to a parallel port. | 03:04 |
| harmless | hi | 03:05 |
| harmless | I use ubuntu! | 03:05 |
| harmless | yay | 03:05 |
| pragmaticenigma | Volund, there is a very good chance that it will still work. If not immediately, you'd be surprised that there is probably someone out there that has written a driver to work with the most acient of hardware | 03:14 |
| dakshina | hi | 03:14 |
| Volund | hahahaha. | 03:15 |
| Volund | Cool. | 03:15 |
| CarlFK | Volund: Parallel Port and little more than typewriters are super simple. there are Parallel Port drivers for the Parallel Port Part, and "simple text" is kinda like driver 101 class. | 03:17 |
| dakshina | hey | 03:19 |
| Volund | heh | 03:19 |
| CarlFK | Hmm, I guess there could be printers that use the connection, but don't use the printer protocols .. or whatever that standard thing is called. | 03:19 |
| dakshina | do u like to mke a whatsapp group and chat on it | 03:20 |
| CarlFK | in the last few years a friend wired up an LED to the DTR or whatever of a serial port, now we can turn a light on using the serial port, but not using it's data lines. which is really hacky. | 03:20 |

| asmith4726 | so we have to supply username's and such to print from it :/ | 04:25 |
| asmith4726 | and our boss wants us using secure print so we can cancel jobs if we screw up before we waste toner. | 04:26 |
| asmith4726 | (Though I don't care about the secure print thing anymore since the copier isn't in the new hire area like it used to be lol... | 04:27 |

| Draconiator | Well the old one lasted a pretty long time, 3.4 years (over 30,000 hours), and that was WITH some bug in the firmware that made it think it was 2TB | 04:47 |
| Draconiator | I trust Seagate, the one that came with the computer was a Western Digital and that conked out after a year. | 04:50 |

| cfhowlett | Draconiator, no need - just format the drive ext4 | 05:55 |

| AdamTheGhost | sere, I know of an app in windows for that, but it doesn't help you much :( All I can say is check out ~/Downloads and see what all is in there, also a sudo apt-get autoremove might free up some space | 06:17 |
| AdamTheGhost | also, clean out the kernels you don't need anymore | 06:18 |

Then I'm stuck with the .Xauthority stuff. I don't know but maybe because ubuntu 17.10 uses wayland not the Xorg. | 11:08 |
| aoihft | And when I tried to run this command ' lxc config device add guiapps Xauthority disk path=/home/ubuntu/.Xauthority source=${XAUTHORITY} ' the output said ' error: Disk entry is missing the required "source" property ' | 11:10 |

| EriC^^ | netochka: yeah, why? | 11:32 |
| netochka | EriC^^: I've set Chromium to be my default browser. But when I click on a link on Telegram, it opens on Chromium, but, It seems that it opens a different one, As my bookmarks are different in the opened one. Like opening 2 chromiums ( If i already had chromium open) | 11:33 |
| EriC^^ | netochka: no idea, i think that's normal though | 11:34 |
| EriC^^ | netochka: it opens a different chromium instance? or new tab that isn't bookmarked? | 11:35 |
| netochka | I see. btw, I donno how to Add my username as hidden in Terminal. | 11:35 |
| netochka | EriC^^: not a tab. a whole new chromium and the bookmarks are not the same as the default one. as in opening 2 different kinds of chromium, but i only have 1 installed. it's weird. | 11:36 |
| EriC^^ | netochka: you mean about the stuff i said earlier? editing /etc/lightdm/users.conf ? | 11:36 |
| netochka | yes | 11:36 |
| EriC^^ | netochka: it's easy, type "sudo nano /etc/lightdm/users.conf" scroll down to hidden-users and add it hidden-users=nobody nobody4 noaccess <your username here> then save and exit with ctrl+x | 11:37 |

| Fluffi | hi | 11:50 |
| Fluffi | I have a problem with ubuntu | 11:51 |
| dbe | Fluffi, that's unfortunate. | 11:51 |
| Fluffi | Why is ubuntu such a huge pain in the ass? Why do I hate it so much? | 11:51 |
| wyseguy | lol | 11:52 |
| dbe | Fluffi, I ask myself that question from time to time, but then again the Ubuntu engineers have a very tough problem to solve - "make everything work for everyone". | 11:52 |
| Fluffi | I dont want to use it. I have to. I get headache of ubuntu. Why do I have to spent hours of searching for fucking bash commands and fixing stuff. It is so damn fucking anoying. I hate ubuntu so much | 11:55 |
| vlt | Fluffi: Can you give an example? What was the last bash command so well hidden that you had to search for it for hours? | 12:01 |
| thinky | hello | 12:02 |
| thinky | i am running ubuntu bash on windows 10 at the moment | 12:02 |
| thinky | how can i access ubuntu files on bash? | 12:02 |
| thinky | is there /home location? | 12:02 |
| thinky | or root? | 12:02 |
| Mathisen | thinky, yes it is | 12:03 |
| thinky | so where is the location and how can i access? | 12:03 |
| Mathisen | just got /home in bash | 12:03 |
| thinky | hmm | 12:03 |
| thinky | -bash: cd: home: No such file or directory | 12:04 |
| thinky | can not i access the location physically? | 12:04 |
| vlt | thinky: The location of what? | 12:04 |
| Mathisen | thinky, what do you mean by physically ? | 12:04 |
| thinky | on ubuntu i can access /home/user directory right? | 12:05 |
| thinky | why not on ubuntu bash on windows? | 12:05 |
| Mathisen | you can there is no diffrence | 12:05 |
| thinky | Mathisen: but how? | 12:05 |
| thinky | it must be somewhere in C: location | 12:05 |
| thinky | but cant find | 12:05 |
| Mathisen | so you trying to find ubuntu userland in windows ? in explorer ? | 12:06 |
| Mathisen | thats totaly diffrent story | 12:06 |
| thinky | Mathisen: yep | 12:06 |
| thinky | also in terminal too | 12:07 |
| Mathisen | and you should NEVER edit files in your userland from windows, if you do it they will dissapear in linux as it looses the permisions | 12:07 |
| thinky | hmm | 12:07 |
| Mathisen | you can however edit all files that is under /mnt/drive_letter | 12:08 |
| Mathisen | anyway this is more a ##windows topic now. | 12:08 |
| thinky | ok thanks | 12:09 |
| Mathisen | np and the ubuntu location is in appdata folder somewhere for your user | 12:10 |
| thinky | hmm | 12:11 |
| kraghot | hi guys, I have a problem. I have installed Kodi and I am booting directly into a Kodi session, however the screen turns off after not doing anything which is a problem because I have no keyboard connected to it.

| tomreyn | thinky: there's also #ubuntu-on-windows - but i'd recommend using a real ubuntu installation (can be multi-boot, can be in a VM). | 12:14 |
| thinky | tomreyn: i have dual boot already | 12:14 |
| thinky | just checking bash on windows | 12:14 |
| Fluffi | ARGH | 12:15 |
| tomreyn | thinky: i see. well i guess it'd good enough to make some files avaialable on windows. | 12:16 |
| thinky | i wish i could install ms office 2016 on ubuntu | 12:16 |
| tomreyn | thinky: what's lacking in libreoffice? | 12:16 |
| thinky | doesnt feel so pro | 12:17 |
| thinky | i am not sure if it s all compatible with formulas and macros | 12:17 |
| Mathisen | mostly is, maybe with macros there can be some issues | 12:17 |
| thinky | i still prefer ms office | 12:17 |
| thinky | that s one of the reason i still use windows :/ | 12:17 |
| pseudonymous | thinky: there are alternative office packs if you're willing to drop some $. For one, you can even go with microsoft's cloud offering, Office 365 | 12:18 |
| akik | thinky: you shouldn't access the wsl files from windows | 12:18 |
| thinky | pseudonymous: yea that s an option | 12:18 |
| sinamaleki | hi every one m anybody knows that when a meeting of ubuntu is ? | 12:18 |
| Mathisen | sinamaleki, huh ? | 12:19 |
| sinamaleki | I want to have a meeting with ubuntu staffs , so is there any summit or meeting plan ? | 12:19 |
| adalbert | kraghot: If you have disabled the screensaver in both kodi and gnome and configured power management not to turn of the display you should be oke ? | 12:20 |
| dbe | sinamaleki, pretty interesting question. why do you want a meeting with ubuntu staffs? | 12:20 |
| sinamaleki | our company needs ubuntu to deploy a cloud for us | 12:21 |
| sinamaleki | so we want to talk to them | 12:21 |
| sinamaleki | not just email and tell ! because we want them to deploy a cloud with about 500 nodes and we think that this process can not suitable with phone call or email | 12:22 |
| kraghot | adalbert, that's exactly what I have done. I don't understand what could be causing the screen to blank :( | 12:22 |
| Mathisen | sinamaleki, maybe just contact some other IT company that specialice on this | 12:22 |
| tomreyn | sinamaleki: you should talk to canonical | 12:22 |
| almynic | hi I have some weird problem with my terminal. I i open a new terminal I get this error: [2~: command not found . Does anyone know how to fix this I already updated .profile and .bashrc | 12:29 |
| almynic | and source doesn't work for some weird reason | 12:29 |
| thetrollman | ay | 12:31 |
| thinky | . | 12:35 |
| tomreyn | almynic: use an editor which will display special characters to view those files. or use 'hd' on them. "[2~" is probably an expanded special character which ended up in one of these files while you edited them. | 12:35 |
| Fluffi | why does not even a simple vnc connection to ubuntu work. why? | 12:38 |
| tomreyn | Fluffi: is this an ubuntu support question, or just rambling? in the latter case please move it elsewhere. | 12:39 |
| === ziprar is now known as zipace | ||
| tomreyn | Fluffi: if it's the former: to connec tto VNC, you'll need all of the following: a vnc client, a vnc server and a network connection between them. | 12:40 |
| Fluffi | I disabled encryption and still get an error encryption is not supported | 12:41 |
| tomreyn | ubuntu does not run a vnc server out of the box. | 12:41 |
| Fluffi | i run vino | 12:41 |
| tomreyn | what are you trying to achieve overall? | 12:42 |
| Fluffi | another problem. another searching through dozens of forum posts on the internet. oh fuck I hate this shit so much | 12:42 |
| tomreyn | Fluffi: please tone it down | 12:42 |
| Fluffi | what will happen with ubuntu when the internet is down? no one can use it anymore... thats no joke. thats true | 12:44 |
| tomreyn | Fluffi: it will work just fine | 12:46 |
| === SimonNL is now known as SimonNL_Afk | ||
| Fluffi | tomreyn maybe. but you cant change anything anymore | 12:46 |
| tomreyn | Fluffi: sure, you can. what doesn't work for you? | 12:46 |
| niranjan | During service pack update, my 16.04 suddenly dropped to prompt which seems to be grub prompt. Can no longer reboot. | 12:46 |
| niranjan | Any action on grub prompt says secure boot forbids loading module | 12:47 |
| piksu | With any operating system, when the internet is down you can not access the internet. Thats basically it. | 12:47 |
| tomreyn | niranjan: consider disabling "secure boot" in your BIOS / UEFI until you have this worked out (or in general). | 12:48 |
| Fluffi | everything does not work. every now and then I get stuck in a problem and end up in searching for a fix in the net for hours. I am so fed up with this shit over and over again | 12:48 |
| niranjan | @tomreyn, will try that, but why would working laptop suddenly change the mode | 12:49 |
| tomreyn | Fluffi: again, please stop using this language. also be aware we cannot help your with getting into a better moood, we can only help you solve well described issues here. | 12:50 |
| tomreyn | niranjan: because of unsigned 3rd party kernel modules | 12:51 |
| niranjan | @tomreyn, thank you, that makes sense. Seems like my bios does not have option to enable/disable secure boot. Researching on that | 12:52 |
| Fluffi | I am not contend with the overall situation. Why does everything in ubuntu needs a manual fix. This is such a damn time consumption | 12:52 |
| BluesKaj | Fluffi, do you expect an automtic fix?...We all would prefer that too, but there's really no such thing | 12:54 |
| vlt | Fluffi: What did you do after the standard installation that now needs a manual fix? | 12:55 |
| vlt | Fluffi: Can you give one example? What was the last bash command so well hidden that you had to search for it for hours? | 12:56 |
| Fluffi | my automatic fix is using windows. but sadly i can not use it. later i need to activate cuda. I have nightmares even to think about the massive amount of problems there will be activating it in ubuntu | 12:59 |
| BluesKaj | using windows is no fix for linux, just for you | 13:00 |
| akik | anybody know how to set the pulseaudio-equalizer as default? it keeps falling back to the non-eq sink for me | 13:01 |
| akik | sorry wrong channel | 13:03 |
| almynic | @tomreyn I did hd on bashrc and profile no special characters are there | 13:03 |
| vlt | Has Fluffi phrased an actual problem yet? | 13:04 |
| Mathisen | nope | 13:04 |
| niranjan | I tried disabling secure boot as @tomreyn suggested, looks like grub was able to see the disks, but no progress. | 13:04 |
| tomreyn | niranjan: so what is the error message now, or what happens? | 13:07 |
| niranjan | @tomreyn, behavior is exactly same as before, it drops in grub shell. Says error you need to load kernel first | 13:08 |
| tomreyn | niranjan: that's a different message than you reported earlier: "Any action on grub prompt says secure boot forbids loading module" | 13:08 |
| niranjan | Only difference is after disabling secure boot, grub is able to see the disk. So commands like ls seem to be working | 13:08 |
| niranjan | @toreyn, yes, the message is different, now grub is able to see the disk(s), but still not booting. | 13:10 |
| tomreyn | almynic: hmm not sure then. maybe try the other files which are read when opening a new terminal, too | 13:10 |

| tomreyn | niranjan: i think you will need to either boot from an ubuntu installer image and chroot into your existing on-disk installation and fix it this way (which is a little complicated but someone ehre might be happy to guide you, not i). | 13:15 |
| tomreyn | niranjan: or you could reinstall, but if you have /home on the same partition / file system as / (the root file system), whchih is the default desktop configuration, then you'd loose your data, too. | 13:16 |
| niranjan | @tomreyn trying instructions at https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2007743. May be that will help. What concerns me is no vmlunz file, but I see vmlunz.old and intrd.img.old files. | 13:16 |
| tomreyn | niranjan: situations like you have occur when you try to manually customize the boot process, use low quality third party packages or mix packages from different releases. | 13:17 |
| tomreyn | i'm just saying this so you'll know what to be awar eof in the future. | 13:17 |
| tomreyn | niranjan: when you said "during service pack update", you probably meant that you installed ubuntu updates? | 13:19 |
| almynic | :tomreyn executing /bin/bash gives the error [2~: command not found so I think this is the problem | 13:19 |
| niranjan | @tomreyn - yes yesterday I got prompt for service update. It has one grub update too if I remember correctly | 13:19 |
| tomreyn | almynic: doh, that's weird. did your disk run full maybe? df -h | 13:20 |
| tomreyn | almynic: make sure you dont reboot before this issue is solved. | 13:20 |
| niranjan | Otherwise, I have never played with boot settings. Only packages from official repos. | 13:21 |
| almynic | tomreyn: no it's not full, 71% is used. | 13:21 |
| tomreyn | almynic: which ubuntu release is this? lsb_release -sd | 13:22 |
| almynic | Ubuntu 16.04.4 LTS, I use GNOME Flavour | 13:23 |
| tomreyn | niranjan: hmm this is strange then indeed. here's how to recover an existing installation from a live / installer cd / dvd / usb stick chroot https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCdRecovery#Update_Failure | 13:24 |
| tomreyn | almynic: what does this output? ls -l /bin/bash | 13:25 |
| almynic | tomreyn: -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1037528 Mai 16 2017 /bin/bash | 13:27 |
| tomreyn | almynic: i have the same size and date (also on 16.04.4, amd64), so i suspect it'S still something else that's getting in the way. | 13:29 |
| TJ- | almynic: check the file integrity with: "cd /; md5sum --quiet --check /var/lib/dpkg/info/bash.md5sums" | 13:30 |
| TJ- | almynic: if that doesn't report a problem at least we know the executable is not corrupt | 13:30 |
| === erasmus is now known as razmoose | ||
| almynic | tj: no problem reported | 13:31 |
| TJ- | almynic: that's a good sign. do you get the same error if you do "/bin/bash" | 13:32 |
| almynic | yes | 13:32 |
| TJ- | almynic: so, that suggests a binfmt issue (that's how the kernel detects how to handle an executable) | 13:32 |
| tomreyn | almynic: what does this output? echo PATH: $PATH; echo LD_PRELOAD: $LD_PRELOAD; echo LDD:;ldd /bin/bash | 13:34 |
| tomreyn | !paste | almynic | 13:34 |

| tomreyn | TJ-: got more suggestions? i'm not sure how to diagnose this properly. | 13:34 |
| TJ- | tomreyn: I'm digging currently... almynic try: "strace -f -o /tmp/bash-strace.log /bin/bash" then after it fails do "pastebinit /tmp/bash-strace.log" and give us the URL | 13:35 |
| tomreyn | could bit be related to bash-completion, too? | 13:36 |
| almynic | !pastebinit https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/SBQCBcwfTv/ | 13:37 |
| almynic | here is the output it produced | 13:37 |
| tomreyn | almynic: looks fine to me, maybe try what TJ did | 13:39 |
| TJ- | tomreyn: if we're using the direct path /bin/bash the current shell should just pick that up... hmmm, unless the current shell is also bash and it's hash table is bad. almynic Do "hash" and tell us if it lists 'bash' as one of it's entries, and if so, what path it shows for that bash | 13:39 |
| TJ- | tomreyn: oh hang on I think we may be being misled here!! I suspect bash is executing fine but something in one of it's startup scripts is bad. The error is " [2~: command not found" which looks like a PS string or simialar | 13:41 |
| TJ- | almynic: does "/bin/bash --norc" work ? | 13:43 |
| tomreyn | good job :) | 13:44 |
| tomreyn | and sorry, but i have to go. will be back in an hour or, more likely, two. | 13:44 |
| almynic | tj: yes that works | 13:45 |
| TJ- | almynic: YAY! That means that you've likely made some change to $HOME/.bashrc or $HOME/.profile or $HOME/.bash_aliases that has a syntax error in it | 13:46 |
| TJ- | almynic: do you recall editing any of those files recently? | 13:47 |
| almynic | TJ: I just freshly set up profile and bashrc from scratch I didn't touch .bash_aliases | 13:49 |
| stillunt1tled | i wonder how many of these are just people too lazy to remove this from their autojoin | 13:49 |
| TJ- | almynic: what do you mean "freshly set up" - those files are auto-generated when a user account is created. Do you mean you have made changes to them? | 13:50 |
| almynic | yes i made some changes | 13:50 |
| TJ- | almynic: OK, well, those changes have errors in them, so you need to look careful at your changes and figure out what is wrong and fix it | 13:51 |
| almynic | TJ: ok how do I do that the fastest way? | 13:51 |
| almynic | found it yes ;) | 13:52 |
| TJ- | almynic: you could try sourceing the files into the current environment and seeing if you get the same error. You can use bash's internal tracing to get an idea of which line it might be: Try "set -x; . $HOME/.profile" (that . is important - it is the 'source' operator, make sure you type it) | 13:52 |
| TJ- | almynic: well done :) | 13:52 |
| almynic | was in aliases but I didn't touch this file curious. | 13:53 |
| TJ- | almynic: well, at least you've fixed it | 13:53 |
| almynic | TJ: thanks for your help | 13:54 |

| uGotZeStuff | im trying to run an ubuntu on virtual box and i get the error message 'This kernel requires an x86-64 CPU, but only detected an i686 CPU. Unable to boot - please use a kernel appropriate for your CPU'. What does this mean | 13:58 |
| A4L | uGotZeStuff: i think it only supports 64-bit processor | 13:59 |
| A4L | uGotZeStuff: and youve got 32-bit | 13:59 |
| A4L | ' | 13:59 |
| uGotZeStuff | what does | 13:59 |
| A4L | uGotZeStuff: u using windows | 14:00 |
| A4L | uGotZeStuff: ? | 14:00 |
| uGotZeStuff | yes | 14:00 |
| TJ- | uGotZeStuff: is the host running a 32-bit OS? | 14:00 |
| A4L | uGotZeStuff: download 32-bit ubuntu iso then | 14:00 |
| uGotZeStuff | no | 14:00 |
| uGotZeStuff | its running 64 | 14:00 |
| TJ- | uGotZeStuff: well, it sounds like you've configured the VirtualBox guest with a 32-bit CPU - you should be able to change that to 64-bit | 14:01 |
| TJ- | uGotZeStuff: otherwise, as A4L said, use a 32-bit Ubuntu ISO | 14:01 |
| A4L | uGotZeStuff: download 64 bit version of vitrual box | 14:01 |
| joeyfairytale | it only has a unix 32-bit option in the drop down menu | 14:01 |
| A4L | uGotZeStuff: just download http://releases.ubuntu.com/16.04/ubuntu-16.04.4-desktop-i386.iso.torrent | 14:02 |
| A4L | uGotZeStuff: 32bit version f ubuntu | 14:02 |
| TJ- | A4L: in a terminal did you first do "sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" | 14:02 |
| joeyfairytale | nice | 14:02 |
| A4L | i searched Software Updater in SuperMenu | 14:03 |
| A4L | TJ-: i searched Software Updater in SuperMenu | 14:03 |
| TJ- | A4L: use the terminal and do the commands I showed, then try the release-upgrade afterwards. | 14:03 |
| A4L | TJ-: tnx wait will try now | 14:04 |
| TJ- | A4L: the error is caused, I think, because the release-upgrader requires a later version of apt than is currently installed. It could also be caused if the APT sources haven't enabled the trusty-updates component | 14:04 |
| A4L | TJ-: terminal says http://ovca.ml/terminal.txt | 14:06 |

| gajop | hey, my PC freezes at "Preparing to install Ubuntu" step during Ubuntu 16.04.4 installation, right after I choose if it should download while installing and whether it should install 3rd party tools/apps | 14:23 |
| gajop | tried all variations and it just gets stuck | 14:23 |
| jkdr | I have two ubuntu linux machines that I rsynced entire / fs from a server. One of them I can log in via gdm to Gnome, the other I cannot for some reason. | 14:24 |
| jkdr | How can I figure out what the problem is? | 14:24 |
| jkdr | I can log in using i3, but not gnome, possibly because something is misconfigured, or files or missing | 14:25 |
| jkdr | I don't think files are missing, since other than a few exclude in rsync command, everything is synced | 14:25 |
| TJ- | jkdr: the obvious thing would be that gnome requires hardware accelerated compositor support | 14:28 |
| gajop | ok so it seems like grub-mount is stuck forever during the installation phase | 14:29 |
| SadError256 | guys | 14:30 |
| gajop | i'm going to try installing ubuntu server ^_^ | 14:30 |
| SadError256 | is it safe or at least ok to use Ubuntu Server as main | 14:31 |
| SadError256 | gajop: as main pc or an actual server... because I joined because I want to use Ubuntu Server as main :P | 14:31 |
| gajop | i'll try to install it on my laptop | 14:31 |
| SadError256 | gajop: as main for a base install or actual server??? | 14:32 |
| gajop | that's because the desktop installation is failing for some reason; normally i wouldn't do it | 14:32 |
| SadError256 | because stock ubuntu kind of sucks now | 14:32 |
| gajop | why does it suck? | 14:32 |
| gajop | i'm looking at the LTS release | 14:32 |
| SadError256 | gajop: wow its wierd that we are both installing Ubuntu server as main at the same time :-P | 14:32 |
| SadError256 | same | 14:32 |
| SadError256 | gajop: Gnome desktop is bloated, sure you can replace it, but you have to carefully remove all of the Gnome dependencies, its full of stuff I dont want, I would rather use Ubuntu Server like a Main PC distro because it is like Arch with an installer | 14:33 |
| SadError256 | I like arch, but I am curious about Ubuntu server | 14:33 |
| gajop | i am moving away from arch as i don't have time to maintain my PC anymore | 14:34 |
| gajop | i just want to use it and don't want it to get in the way | 14:34 |
| uGotZeStuff | fuck | 14:34 |
| uGotZeStuff | I downloaded a 32 bit iso of ubuntu | 14:34 |
| uGotZeStuff | https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/t0ZwUv6h/ | 14:34 |
| SadError256 | gajop: yes it can be a little broken at times. | 14:34 |
| TJ- | SadError256: sure, -server is the base of -desktop with a couple of differences. It doesn't use network-manager for example, but once installed you can add whatever packages you need | 14:35 |
| SadError256 | TJ-: ah right. What should I use to connect to the internet | 14:36 |
| SadError256 | im at Grandmas and all they have is a 4 inch Ethernet cable XD | 14:36 |
| SadError256 | which is quite pointless. | 14:36 |
| TJ- | SadError256: well, depending on what hardware the PC has, -server might have the correct drivers in the installer to get wifi... I cannot recall though whether installer has wpa_supplicant to access WiFi - not a typical scenario :) | 14:38 |
| TJ- | SadError256: what's on the PC right now? | 14:39 |
| SadError256 | SadError256: Dell Latitude E6430, Elementary OS, which is Ubuntu 16.04 | 14:39 |
| TJ- | SadError256: oh, well that's easier. With an existing Linux you can do a side-by-side install using a chroot assuming the existing OS has network connectivity | 14:40 |
| TJ- | SadError256: or you can do it with a virtual machine on the current OS if you want to run the full installer | 14:41 |

| MickeyGP1378 | I still need help, patiently waiting 10 minutes for answers. I am kinda of a unpatient person. | 15:53 |
| kostkon | !patience | MickeyGP1378, exercise some more of it then | 15:53 |
| ubottu | MickeyGP1378, exercise some more of it then: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or https://ubuntuforums.org or https://askubuntu.com/ | 15:53 |
| MickeyGP1378 | I researched before, entered different forums, tried different solutions. Nothing worked for me. PS: Never expected a "patience" command existed. | 15:55 |
| kostkon | MickeyGP1378, it's more like an advisory | 15:56 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: well, "/dev/sr0" is generally the DVD/CD device... is it possible the PC is booting the installer in ISO-9660+El Torito mode (CD-mode) rather than the expected UEFI mode (where it treats the image as a fixed disk) | 15:59 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: In the PC's manual boot menu does the installer have multiple entries (possibly UEFI, ISO9660, and Legacy/CSM/BIOS) ? | 16:00 |
| MickeyGP1378 | That's weird, I downloaded the image using uTorrent (because the thing is not copyrighted and it's safer to torrent it) | 16:00 |
| MickeyGP1378 | There is a CSM thing in the BIOS Config | 16:00 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: if the system is UEFI then I'd want to ensure first it is starting the installer in EFI mode and nothing else | 16:01 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: are you using the "Try Ubuntu" session? | 16:01 |
| MickeyGP1378 | Yeah, I booted the USB in UEFI mode for obvious reasons, instead of the usual purple background I got GRUB, selected "Try Ubuntu" and then that's when I got the rror | 16:02 |
| MickeyGP1378 | error* | 16:02 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: and it never got to the desktop? | 16:02 |
| MickeyGP1378 | Nope | 16:02 |
| MickeyGP1378 | I didn't even get some kind of graphical interface, only text-based errors and that's it. | 16:03 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: interestingly, we've seen this for a long time (I recall seeing it on Dell PowerEdge servers back in 2006!) and if I recall correctly, it was something to do with the system not having IDE CD/DVD controller, and getting confused when trying to mount it's compressed root file-system | 16:04 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: whats the make/model of the the PC? | 16:05 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: another question: has any Ubuntu installer ever worked for that PC? | 16:05 |
| MickeyGP1378 | It's not a pre-built, I built it myself using parts. The motherboard is a Gigabyte GA-970A-DS3P with AMD AM3+ socket running an AMD FX 8300 and 16GB of RAM | 16:06 |
| MickeyGP1378 | No, never got the installer to boot, this is my first time though | 16:06 |
| MickeyGP1378 | I remember getting it to work on an old Intel LGA1156 machine | 16:06 |
| kostkon | MickeyGP1378, freshly built? | 16:06 |
| MickeyGP1378 | Built it in April of 2017, not exactly new. | 16:06 |
| SomeDamnBody | Where could I download a corpora of elf binaries compiled with debug information? | 16:07 |
| SomeDamnBody | I just need something like chrome, firefox, several others. I could use apt-get to download them if possible too. | 16:07 |
| MickeyGP1378 | TJ-: Forgot to mention that the revision is 2.x | 16:09 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: thanks, I don't see anything mobo-specific to cause this... I'm looking for similar reports against debian-installer and/or ubiquity (the GUI installer) but so far nothing has matched | 16:10 |
| MickeyGP1378 | I'm running the latest BIOS firmware, I highly doubt this has something to do with the motherboard. | 16:11 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: does the error look like this? https://askubuntu.com/questions/47076/usb-boot-problems | 16:13 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: I suspect the answer titled "This stuff really helped me." will help you | 16:14 |

| philip__ | hello? | 16:14 |
| philip__ | i have a little problem can anyone help me | 16:15 |
| TJ- | SomeDamnBody: Fro Chrome you'd need to check with Google I guess; if you use chromium you should be able to get the debug symbols via the ddeb servers. some packages ship their debug symbols in the regular archive with -dbg suffix | 16:16 |
| SomeDamnBody | ddeb servers? | 16:16 |
| philip__ | i have setted up an server with ubuntu server with ssh and the internet doesnt work | 16:16 |
| MickeyGP1378 | brb | 16:16 |
| TJ- | SomeDamnBody: debian packages containing just the debug symbols | 16:16 |
| SomeDamnBody | TJ-: Yeah, I'd like to just pull down a binary for each command | 16:16 |
| SomeDamnBody | Oh ok. | 16:16 |
| TJ- | !debug | 16:16 |
| ubottu | For help debugging your program, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProcedures | 16:16 |
| philip__ | even sudo apt-get update doesnt work | 16:17 |
| ioria | philip__, server 17.10 ? | 16:17 |
| philip__ | correct | 16:17 |
| philip__ | with raid 5 | 16:17 |
| ioria | philip__, check /etc/netplan | 16:17 |
| TJ- | SomeDamnBody: ahhh... here we go: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash#Installing_debug_symbols_manually | 16:18 |
| philip__ | it tells me its just an directory | 16:18 |
| TJ- | SomeDamnBody: in particular see the "Non-built-in debug symbol packages (*-dbgsym)" part | 16:18 |
| === SimonNL is now known as SimonNL_Afk | ||
| SomeDamnBody | TJ-: well I'd like to have the binaries that are compiled with debuggins symbols | 16:19 |
| ioria | philip__, ls /etc/netplan | 16:19 |
| TJ- | SomeDamnBody: we don't ship them like that; package binaries are stripped first, the -dbgsym packages contain the symbols, and gdb knows where to look for them when the relevant package is installed | 16:20 |
| philip__ | i get back the following: 01-netcfg.yaml | 16:20 |
| SomeDamnBody | TJ-: ok crud. | 16:20 |
| SomeDamnBody | Isn't there an apt command to compile a package locally? | 16:20 |
| AppAraat | kostkon: sorry to say but after observing it, it didn't really fix the issue of 100% CPU usage by YT videos. I'll have to conduct further observations to make any meaningful correlations. | 16:21 |
| ioria | philip__, yes, your network is controlled by the config in that file; open it and degub | 16:21 |
| kostkon | AppAraat, oh :( | 16:21 |
| philip__ | how can i open and debug sry im a little newcomer i just have a console without gui | 16:22 |
| AppAraat | that's lyfe ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ | 16:22 |
| TJ- | SomeDamnBody: You mean like "apt-get source <package>; sudo apt-get build-dep <package>; cd <package>-<version>; fakeroot debian/rules binary" ? | 16:22 |
| ioria | philip__, nano /etc/netplan/01-netcfg.yaml (are you sure you want server ed. ?) | 16:22 |
| ioria | philip__, please, read this : https://websiteforstudents.com/configuring-static-ips-ubuntu-17-10-servers/ | 16:23 |
| philip__ | yes becuz i dont care how long i take becuz i would be so fucking proud of myself if i finish this for myself and yes i just wanna learn | 16:23 |
| ioria | ok | 16:24 |
| philip__ | ioria should i take this static ip adress? | 16:26 |
| ioria | philip__, for a server ? i'd say yes | 16:26 |
| TJ- | philip__: you have to configure the network correctly; it will use systemd-networkd, but we have netplan that usually has the network config specification in a /etc/netplan/<file.yaml> which at boot writes a systemd-networkd configuration. See "man netplan" | 16:26 |
| rmunson | Just a general tap on the shoulder philip__ to watch the language in here bud, it's a G rated group of people. ;-) | 16:31 |
| philip__ | how can i exit this nano thing? | 16:32 |
| philip__ | actually set up the static ip | 16:32 |
| TJ- | philip__: I think it's Ctrl+X | 16:33 |
| philip__ | ah thx | 16:33 |
| TJ- | philip__: if you're getting started and want to learn I'd *highly* recommend reading the man-pages for the commands you use/are going to use, as in "man <program-name>" e.g: "man nano" | 16:35 |
| TJ- | philip__: within 'man' press 'h' to get help to leanr the powerful navigation and search functions | 16:35 |
| philip__ | okay thank u very much TJ | 16:35 |
| philip__ | i now applied this static ip but it tells me that its invalid | 16:41 |
| MickeyGP1378 | I'm back | 16:42 |
| philip__ | pls anyone help me | 16:47 |
| TJ- | philip__: did you create a netplan configuration? | 16:51 |
| MickeyGP1378 | TJ-: I'm back, I was brb for some time. | 16:52 |
| === a_ is now known as alkash | ||
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: did any of those solutions work? | 16:52 |
| MickeyGP1378 | No. | 16:53 |
| philip__ | what do you mean i just typed that of what ioria sent me | 16:53 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: did you try the solution suggested by ITAdminNC? | 16:54 |
| MickeyGP1378 | I didn't see | 16:54 |
| MickeyGP1378 | that | 16:54 |
| TJ- | philip__: it sounds to me like you're out of your depth at the moment; you need some basic understanding of how to get around in the terminal and shell and what commands to use and how. I'd suggest you install a desktop ubuntu (assuming you're using a local PC with monitor and keyboard) and use that to explore the terminal and get used to it | 16:55 |
| MickeyGP1378 | TJ-: Yes, i tried that yesterday, didn't work. I don't even know if i did it wrong. | 16:55 |
| philip__ | okay ill do that thx for helping me dude | 16:55 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: I thought that sounded quite a good workaround | 16:56 |
| MickeyGP1378 | Also, that is from 2010, Linux has changed a lot since then. Maybe the boot flags were renamed or removed | 16:56 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: no, it hasn't changed | 16:56 |
| MickeyGP1378 | Oh | 16:57 |
| MickeyGP1378 | Well, i have tried that, didnt work | 16:57 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: Well, without further more accurate debug info there's not a lot else I can suggest | 16:57 |
| MickeyGP1378 | I took a picture of the problem | 16:58 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: the "/init" in the error message "/init: line 7: can't open /dev/sr0: No medium found" is the initrd.img's /init shell script, the first thing the kernel executes after loading, and if line 7 is hitting the problem that's very early in the script. | 16:59 |
| MickeyGP1378 | yes | 16:59 |
| MickeyGP1378 | it's line 7 | 16:59 |
| MickeyGP1378 | ./init: line 7: can't open /dev/sr0: No medium found | 17:00 |
| MickeyGP1378 | I put a dot before the slash because the IRC clients thinks it's a command | 17:00 |
| tanubis | Ubuntu 17.10 question: I'm experiencing random network failures that I can't seem to find information to troubleshoot. I have both ethernet and wifi, and after a while both will die. A reboot will fix the issue, but nothing else seems to. If I open wireshark, I can't even see arp traffic on the network, and manually fixing my arp table with my router address does nothing. Restarts of network service manager do not seem to do anything. | 17:01 |
| tanubis | Any ideas where I could look next? | 17:01 |
| PSLS | anyone else running this on ancient tech? | 17:09 |
| BluesKaj | PSLS, how ancient? | 17:10 |
| MickeyGP1378 | I think <i'm screwed | 17:10 |
| MickeyGP1378 | I don't have 4gb dvd's | 17:10 |
| PSLS | running xubuntu on like 6 year old netbook | 17:11 |
| PSLS | more of a halfbook | 17:12 |
| PSLS | removed the screen (broken ), removed keyboard (using as a desktop), put some aluminium on the heatsink to avoid overheating | 17:12 |
| === SimonNL_Afk is now known as SimonNL | ||
| PSLS | somehow i get 5 error messages after loggin into xfce desktop | 17:14 |
| PSLS | is that ok? | 17:14 |
| BluesKaj | 6yrs old isn't ancient and probly using a BIOS instead of UEFI which is a bonus IMV | 17:14 |
| PSLS | bought it in the year 2013, it was used then | 17:14 |
| PSLS | idk man , AMD C70 APU didnt pass the test of time | 17:15 |
| PSLS | my past 3 phones were way more powerful than this halftop i got | 17:16 |
| kobayashiro | what's that | 17:18 |
| kostkon | PSLS, it's not that bad http://cpuboss.com/cpus/Intel-Core-i3-3217U-vs-AMD-C-70 | 17:20 |
| BluesKaj | that depends how one uses the computer..pcs can still do things a phone can't do, especially display details that are illegible on phones | 17:20 |
| PSLS | a halftop? | 17:20 |
| kostkon | PSLS, yours is a frankenlaptop | 17:21 |
| PSLS | kostkon, well , it generates a lot of heat which throttles it. | 17:21 |
| PSLS | i need to find a cooling solution so i can use it properly, normal usage + downloading and im sitting on 90+ C | 17:22 |
| BluesKaj | modded heatsinks ;-) | 17:22 |
| PSLS | no , its a halftop, franken would have more stuff | 17:23 |
| PSLS | i hot couple pieces of aluminium with some surface are on top of measly heatsink | 17:23 |
| PSLS | i doesnt randomly shut down anymore | 17:23 |
| PSLS | yay | 17:23 |
| AppAraat | IIRC the AMD mobile APUs don't have such great support. Not sure if that's still the case with more recent kernels however. | 17:24 |
| kostkon | AppAraat, could be also that | 17:24 |
| PSLS | apparaat , it didnt really improve | 17:26 |
| AppAraat | what did you try? | 17:26 |
| PSLS | i mean the optimisation on ubuntu | 17:27 |
| PSLS | its the same level | 17:27 |
| AppAraat | what do you mean by "optimisation on ubuntu"? | 17:27 |
| n1k0m1z3 | ciaoo | 17:27 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: if you have the busybox shell prompt when it fails, there's a debug log file you can examine. "cat /run/initramfs/initramfs.debug" | 17:27 |
| PSLS | e.g still getting error messages on startup, still way worse video performance on linux than windows etc | 17:28 |
| MickeyGP1378 | Yeah, that happens, I can't use the USB right now because my brothers are using it for something... | 17:28 |
| MickeyGP1378 | I get the busybox prompt | 17:28 |
| AppAraat | PSLS: have you tried running a more modern kernel? | 17:30 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: I did some experiements here with an 18.04 image but I cannot identify a script file that has a line 7 (or close) that could emit that error, but the debug log file records the script using the shell +x which writes each line before it is executed so if you can find the error message in it, you can see the commands leading up to it, and we should be able to figure out which script is | 17:30 |
| TJ- | responsible from that | 17:31 |
| AppAraat | PSLS: or different kernels in general. What distro(s) have you tried on it? | 17:31 |
| TJ- | PSLS: if it has thermal issues that would point towards some ACPI issue | 17:32 |
| PSLS | AppAraat, i've tried most ubuntu based distros since year 2013, on couple occasions fedora, open suse ( it was somehow more stable than buntu) | 17:32 |
| PSLS | TJ, ive noticed similar problems occur on windows, so i guess its the aging hardware | 17:33 |
| PSLS | and more needy software | 17:33 |
| xcyclist | I got a corrupt virtualbox it seems, and apt-get remove --purge virtualbox, and then a reinstall did not fix it it appears. | 17:34 |
| MickeyGP1378_ | Why did my nickname change | 17:34 |
| PSLS | Mickey it seems theres 2 of you | 17:36 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378_: presumably you didn't disconnect/quit properly and your previous nickname is still active | 17:36 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378_: Does the PC have a CD/DVD drive ? | 17:36 |
| MickeyGP1378__ | Yes | 17:36 |
| BluesKaj | it is since an underscore was added | 17:36 |
| MickeyGP1378__ | Spoiler alert: I ***DONT*** have CD's | 17:37 |
| === MickeyGP1378__ is now known as MickeyGP1378 | ||
| MickeyGP1378 | Test | 17:37 |
| PSLS | CD's.. ancient technology i last used about 6 years ago | 17:38 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378__: right... I've not a theory that for some reason the script thinks it booted from /dev/sr0 (the DVD) rather than from /dev/sda, it gets that from the PC firmware via the kernel, so I'm trying to see if there's way we can detect that and fix it | 17:38 |
| TJ- | s/not/got/ !! | 17:38 |
| AppAraat | PSLS: try one of those Arch / Manjaro distros, they often have really recent kernels. Otherwise yeah, those laptops are not really well versed against the modern Web 2.Bloat | 17:38 |
| MickeyGP1378 | TJ-: What if I psysically disconnect the CD drive? | 17:38 |
| MickeyGP1378 | I **barely** even use it so I don't care | 17:39 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: won't help; this is due to the EFI firmware indicating the system is booting from DVD when it actually boots from USB mass storage, so the init script tries to mount the DVD (which doesn't exist) | 17:39 |
| MickeyGP1378 | Ahhh | 17:39 |
| MickeyGP1378 | Then what should I do | 17:39 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: I'm trying to identify the scripts responsible, to see if there's some way to influence them | 17:40 |
| xcyclist | So instead I guess I completely reinstall ubuntu 16.04 instead. Oh well... | 17:40 |
| Sander^home | Hi. Which channel have phone support for ubuntu phones? | 17:41 |
| PSLS | <AppAraat> I am too tired to mess with arch, yet I love breaking and fixing things | 17:41 |
| AppAraat | Manjaro IIRC has one you can use as live environment. | 17:41 |
| Sander^home | I want to find the best phone to flash with ubuntu. | 17:41 |
| MickeyGP1378 | tj-: Do you have a 17.10.1 ISO? | 17:42 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: the problem is the error messages come from the system's '/bin/mount' (which is part of busybox) so it doesn't help pinpoint where the scripts go wrong | 17:42 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: possibly somewhere | 17:42 |
| PSLS | Sander, nexus 5 hands down | 17:42 |
| BluesKaj | Arch is ok, if you like that sort of bleeding edge thing it promotes itself to be...personally it was pretty ordinary OS in my experience | 17:43 |

Shouldn't the release files for this version still be available? Or what am I mssing? | 18:05 |

| MickeyGP1378 | But how do i fix it then? | 18:07 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: it seems what you see is a by-product and not the actual problem, which is why it is so confusing. What is actually happening is casper script is in a loop waiting for the installer device to apepar and repeatedly checks all devices... for some reason, on some systems, it requires a very long timeout (about 5 minutes) until the device is found... the message you see is just the CDROM device | 18:07 |
| TJ- | being tested for it, it has no bearing on the issue | 18:07 |
| === coder is now known as Guest45715 | ||
| MickeyGP1378 | I have waited a long time, doesnt boot, the "farthest" thing i get is busybox showing an error | 18:09 |

| tgm4883 | MickeyGP1378: you're trying to get Linux to work JUST to run a terminal command? | 18:16 |
| ioria | MickeyGP1378, if you manage to have an editable kernel boot line, you can try to append a parameter: live-media=/dev/sdb1 | 18:20 |
| EriC^ | MickeyGP1378: try typing "normal" and press enter or "configfile /boot/grub/grub.cfg" | 18:20 |

| MickeyGP1378_ | ioria: No, I get some kind of multi-boot Grub thing saying "Try Ubuntu without installing" and some others | 18:24 |
| ioria | MickeyGP1378, that's the Main menu | 18:24 |
| ioria | MickeyGP1378, from there you can change the kernel boot line | 18:24 |
| MickeyGP1378_ | And yes I can press E and edit the boot flags | 18:24 |
| ioria | ok | 18:24 |
| MickeyGP1378_ | I call it "boot flags" but whatever, i get the idea | 18:25 |
| ioria | MickeyGP1378, append at the end live-media=/dev/sdb1 | 18:25 |

| MickeyGP1378_ | before the -- or after? | 18:25 |
| MickeyGP1378_ | there are some -- at the end | 18:25 |
| ioria | MickeyGP1378, before those | 18:25 |
| ctrlaltdelicious | hello | 18:25 |
| MickeyGP1378_ | should i delete something? | 18:25 |
| ioria | nope | 18:25 |

| ioria | MickeyGP1378, maybe it's not sdb1, how many disks do you have ? | 18:27 |
| MickeyGP1378_ | all kind of storage media or just hard drives? | 18:27 |
| ioria | MickeyGP1378, all | 18:27 |
| MickeyGP1378_ | dvd drive and hard drive | 18:28 |
| MickeyGP1378_ | so it would be two | 18:28 |
| ioria | MickeyGP1378, how did you do the usb stick ? | 18:28 |
| MickeyGP1378_ | i plug it in the back of the motherboard, pressed f12 on BIOS POST, selected UEFI SanDisk blablabla and then got the grub multi-boot thing, after selecting "try ubuntu without installing", i get the error. | 18:29 |
| TJ- | ioria: from what I can tell this is a udev/blkid timeout problem... it's supposed to loop on all block devices looking for the live file-system, but some device/file-system causes it to hang, or else the device is not discovered. | 18:29 |
| MickeyGP1378_ | o | 18:30 |
| tgm4883 | MickeyGP1378_: so after you run the one command on Linux, are you done with Linux? Would the windows subsystem for looks work for this? | 18:30 |
| MickeyGP1378_ | i created it with rufus and linuxlive usb creator | 18:30 |
| diff | Hi! My current setup does not include a wireless network card. Can I just plug it in or do I need to reinstall system? | 18:30 |
| MickeyGP1378_ | tgm4883: I am trying to do something with the boot list (i want to remove some entries) but i need linux for it, that's why i need a live usb image | 18:31 |
| ioria | TJ-, can't we point it to the right device from grub ? | 18:31 |
| TJ- | ioria: I think it's more fundamental... it looks like the block device node has not been created by udev,due to it hanging | 18:32 |
| ioria | oh | 18:32 |
| TJ- | ioria: I'd love to be able to recreate this but it seems it needs particular hardware and/or unique devices/file-systems to provoke it | 18:32 |

| MickeyGP1378 | How do I change my color, I dont like pink | 18:33 |
| MickeyGP1378 | TJ-: What's "18.04" | 18:34 |
| MickeyGP1378 | wait | 18:34 |
| MickeyGP1378 | they released it? | 18:34 |
| MickeyGP1378 | or is it a beta | 18:34 |
| ioria | MickeyGP1378, are you booting 18.04 ? | 18:35 |
| MickeyGP1378 | hell no | 18:35 |
| MickeyGP1378 | 17.10.1 | 18:35 |
| MickeyGP1378 | amd64 | 18:35 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: the code is basically the same, it's not changed much in 10 years :) | 18:35 |
| ioria | MickeyGP1378, try live-media=/dev/sdb (without the partition number) | 18:36 |
| MickeyGP1378 | ioria: Wait a sec, I need to create the live usb again, I had to format it and use it for something else (dont ask) | 18:36 |
| ioria | i don't ask | 18:36 |
| ioria | MickeyGP1378, use rufus | 18:37 |
| TJ- | ioria: I'm wondering if from the busybox prompt we could manually create the node, with "mknod /dev/sdb b 8 1" | 18:38 |
| MickeyGP1378 | ioria: I have looked in a linux mint forum and some guy says that if i have 2 storage media i should use /dev/sdc1 | 18:38 |
| MickeyGP1378 | which /dev/ thing should i use | 18:38 |
| ioria | TJ-, mmm, idk | 18:38 |
| TJ- | ioria: that'd work around a hung udev at least :) | 18:38 |
| ioria | MickeyGP1378, already done the usb ? | 18:38 |
| ioria | TJ-, sure | 18:38 |
| MickeyGP1378 | ioria: No, still rocking usb 2.0, dont expect much :p | 18:39 |
| ioria | MickeyGP1378, we'll wait | 18:39 |
| MickeyGP1378 | hmmm | 18:39 |
| MickeyGP1378 | my flash drive doesnt want to format | 18:39 |
| MickeyGP1378 | windows is complaining... | 18:40 |
| ioria | MickeyGP1378, rufus will do that | 18:40 |
| xcyclist | Ok, it looks like I have something else wrong, because I completely reinstalled ubuntu on this machine, and only installed chromium, virtualbox, and downloaded ubuntu server 16.04 as additions, and the second I try to start the well configured install I have configured many times in vbox, it locks up the machine. | 18:40 |
| xcyclist | So, I believe there may be a bios setting I need. | 18:40 |
| MickeyGP1378 | windows was unable to complete the format. great! | 18:40 |
| Draconiator | lol | 18:40 |
| MickeyGP1378 | diskmgmt.msc to the rescue | 18:40 |
| TJ- | ioria: the other possibility is the USB mass storage driver isn't detecting the device | 18:41 |
| ioria | TJ-, ok, but should work in live mode, no ? | 18:42 |
| Draconiator | Xubuntu is an awesome OS in itself but it's so darn different....I look in the file manager and it's like looking at an alien world. | 18:42 |
| ioria | Draconiator, you can install other FMs | 18:43 |
| MickeyGP1378 | ioria: Ok, Rufus is doing it's work right now | 18:43 |
| ioria | ok | 18:43 |
| MickeyGP1378 | Can you please tell me which boot flag should i use, i forgot | 18:44 |
| MickeyGP1378 | This pink color is bothering me | 18:44 |
| ioria | MickeyGP1378, first try again with live-media=/dev/sdb1 then we try without the part num | 18:45 |
| ioria | MickeyGP1378, boot in 'Try Mode' | 18:45 |
| xcyclist | First glance at bios, it appears nothing is bad. This is a Dell laptop. Suggestions on settings for bios or otherwise for vbox use welcome. | 18:46 |
| MickeyGP1378 | And then, if /sdb/ (without a number) doesnt work, i try with /sdc1/ right? | 18:46 |

| clincks | Hi, I'm trying to install rudder. But I get an error when lauching command apt-get that says: " The repository 'http://www.rudder-project.org/apt-4.3 artful Release' does not have a Release file.". ANy idea how to fix that ? Thanks | 18:56 |
| TJ- | clincks: as the rudder archive maintainers; likely they don't build for artful | 18:58 |
| TJ- | s/as/ask/ | 18:58 |
| clincks | TJ ? I don't get you... I followed step by step the documentation | 18:59 |
| clincks | What is "artful" ? | 18:59 |
| cheguacamole | very stylish clincks | 19:00 |
| cheguacamole | doing something creatively to achieve an overall style | 19:00 |
| ioria | clincks, looks like the latest build is for xenial : http://www.rudder-project.org/apt-repos/4.2.4/dists/ | 19:01 |
| MickeyGP1378 | ioria: I'm busy, doing things. Will do the ubuntu thing soon | 19:02 |
| ioria | ok | 19:02 |
| sander^home | Thanks for beeing silence about the ubuntu-phone, I just managed to get up the wlan and mobile cell network... but kinda pity that #ubuntu-touch is closed down :-( | 19:02 |
| TJ- | ioria: I notice the casper scripts do 'udevadm settle' and it's man-page says the default timeout: ...seconds to wait for the event queue to become empty. The default value is 120 seconds" .. if that is being repeatedly called in the loop that'd explain the symptoms. We probably need to pass --timeout option with a short timeout | 19:02 |
| ioria | TJ-, i think so, yes | 19:03 |
| TJ- | clincks: obviously not, rudder doesn't have a pocket for the 'artful' 17.10 release | 19:04 |
| clincks | Ah ok, artful is a version of ubuntu... I got it now. I will reinstall with the corect version of ubuntu. Thanks for your help | 19:04 |
| TJ- | ioria: question then is *why* is the kernel's event queue taking so long to clear that it hits such a timeout... again that suggests 'udevd' is hung on something | 19:05 |
| TJ- | clincks: if you look here you'll see all the releases it supports; looks like a mix of Debian and Ubuntu http://www.rudder-project.org/apt-4.3/dists/ | 19:05 |
| ioria | TJ-, at first sight, i'd say something hw related, but really idk | 19:06 |
| TJ- | It could be a binary being executed by a udev rule I think | 19:07 |
| clincks | What is the latest version of ubuntu supported ? Xenial ? To with version number of ubuntu it refer ? Thanks | 19:08 |
| clincks | 16.04 ? | 19:08 |
| ioria | clincks, you want the latest supported by rudder, yes, 16.04 | 19:10 |
| ioria | TJ-, timeout option sounds good | 19:13 |
| leru | Hi, on ubuntu 16.04 LTS the dash closes when i enter q. how to prevent this? | 19:14 |
| kostkon | leru, that's a new one | 19:15 |
| kostkon | leru, check in your keyboard prefs if you've set q to act as the super key | 19:16 |
| clincks | iora, thanks. Annother question... I do have a corei7... if I well understand I have to do<nload the i386 32 bits ? The other option is64 bits but limited to AMD. Did I understood right ??? | 19:17 |
| ioria | clincks, nope, if you have an intel icore 7, go with 64bit | 19:18 |
| leru | kostkon, especially an annoying one. does ubuntu have any other keyboard prefs than the one in the system settings? | 19:19 |
| ioria | clincks, https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/53415/why-are-64-bit-distros-often-called-amd64 | 19:19 |
| kostkon | leru, other gui prefs no, other ways to set keyboard shortcuts i'm guessing yes | 19:20 |
| clincks | iora, thanks... will be a little bit less stupid tonight | 19:21 |
| ioria | clincks, no problem | 19:21 |
| === Tayl is now known as Taylrox | ||
| Taylrox | Good evening all. | 19:22 |
| leru | kostkon, i suppose q is not working as a super key since it does only close the dash | 19:22 |
| clincks | By the way, I should ask before installing rudder... is rudder doing good job ? They are so many doing the same... not sure what to choose | 19:24 |
| kostkon | leru, you could try resetting unity/compiz but you'll lose any customisations. everything will revert to defaults | 19:24 |
| ioria | clincks, never used, sorry | 19:25 |
| leru | will try. brb | 19:25 |
| clincks | iora, used another similar ? | 19:25 |
| ioria | clincks, nope | 19:26 |
| leru | kostkon, compiz reset didn't help | 19:26 |
| leru | same goes for the alt menu for every program | 19:27 |
| clincks | any idea why I'm not able to post on ##linux channel ? | 19:28 |

| kostkon | leru, you could try resetting your gnome configs. | 19:30 |
| ioria | clincks, rudder is an 'external' package, so you wont get any help | 19:30 |

| MickeyGP1378 | It doesnt say anythibg | 19:53 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: OK, so that tells us although we've created the node there is no hardware discovered for it | 19:53 |
| MickeyGP1378 | Now what? | 19:54 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: try this: "modprobe usb_storage" | 19:54 |
| MickeyGP1378 | Done | 19:54 |
| MickeyGP1378 | No verbose | 19:54 |
| MickeyGP1378 | And yes i do know what verbose id | 19:54 |
| MickeyGP1378 | S* | 19:54 |

| MickeyGP1378 | This is so long | 19:55 |
| MickeyGP1378 | It did somethibf | 19:55 |
| MickeyGP1378 | I can't write it all | 19:55 |

| leagris | Can I have some help fixing weird permission denied from Inkscape reading and writing to its /home/username/.config/inkscape directory? | 19:59 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: OK, that's interesting, that suggests the device was recognised earlier so it's seen it disappear | 19:59 |
| MickeyGP1378 | Ok | 20:00 |
| MickeyGP1378 | Last thing is unable to enumerate usb device | 20:00 |
| leagris | It is Apparmor denying access to Inkscape to its own config | 20:00 |
| leagris | How should I fix this Apparomr issue? | 20:00 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: Without being in front of the PC it's almost impossible to remotely diagnose/fix this; obviously something unique about that PC and/or what's on it is causing this since the problem is seen so rarely, but we've about exhausted what we can usefully investigate | 20:01 |
| MickeyGP1378 | Okkkkk | 20:01 |
| MickeyGP1378 | I did the ls command again | 20:01 |
| MickeyGP1378 | And i see something new | 20:01 |
| ioria | MickeyGP1378, let's try again with the kernel parameter ? | 20:02 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: generally I can wrestle a system into submission but for boot issues like this I need to be in front of it | 20:02 |
| MickeyGP1378 | Brw-r--r-- 1 8, 16 /dev/sdb | 20:02 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: what do you see? anything about the USB storage being discovered? | 20:02 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: we created /dev/sdb ... but try "blkid /dev/sdb" in case there's now something on the end of it | 20:02 |
| MickeyGP1378 | Done | 20:03 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: no reply? | 20:03 |
| MickeyGP1378 | No verbose | 20:03 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: if there was a device there blkid would tell you all about it | 20:03 |
| MickeyGP1378 | Where can we talk where we can send images | 20:03 |
| MickeyGP1378 | Its just easier to explain with images | 20:04 |
| TJ- | I think we used to have a factoid for posting images | 20:04 |
| TJ- | ioria: ^^^^ any ideas? | 20:04 |
| ioria | TJ-, only change usb port or kernel boot parameter | 20:04 |
| MickeyGP1378 | TJ-: i will ctrl+alt+del ok? | 20:05 |
| ducasse | TJ-: imgur is what we usually use | 20:05 |

| ioria | we already know that | 20:11 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: seen it, yes, from the last line "Unable to find a medium..." plus the earlier search for the device we know the USB device isn't being found correctly | 20:11 |
| MickeyGP1378 | K | 20:11 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: Because USB isn't working we have no way to get the kernel log (dmesg) off to investigate why | 20:12 |
| TJ- | It's too early for any network ability | 20:12 |
| MickeyGP1378 | I give up | 20:12 |
| MickeyGP1378 | I will try with puppy linux | 20:12 |
| ioria | MickeyGP1378, let's try again with the kernel parameter ? (2) | 20:12 |
| MickeyGP1378 | Which parameters | 20:12 |
| adalbert | Question: I want to export a running ubuntu installation to a virtualbox image, how do I proceed ? | 20:12 |
| ioria | MickeyGP1378, live-media=/dev/sdb | 20:13 |
| MickeyGP1378 | Ok | 20:14 |
| ioria | MickeyGP1378, have you tried other usb ports, right ? | 20:14 |
| TJ- | ioria: it won't help; the device isn't there. I suspect udevd is hung running a binary or similar so isn't creating the device nodes | 20:14 |
| MickeyGP1378 | No | 20:14 |
| ioria | TJ-, yep, i k | 20:14 |
| ioria | MickeyGP1378, do it, please | 20:14 |
| MickeyGP1378 | Lemme try this with another port | 20:14 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: ioria's idea to try another USB port is a good one... try a front port if it has them | 20:14 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: usually we see problems with front ports not working but rear ports OK... maybe your's is different | 20:15 |
| MickeyGP1378 | I have front ports but my usb flash drive is broken and i need to put it in a very specific place and gravity otherwise it will not work | 20:15 |
| MickeyGP1378 | The plastics brokw | 20:15 |
| TJ- | HUH!?! now you tell us the USB device itself has a problem? | 20:16 |
| MickeyGP1378 | Nooo | 20:16 |
| MickeyGP1378 | It works | 20:16 |
| MickeyGP1378 | But the plastic is broken and i need to put it in a very specific place with specific gravity | 20:16 |
| MickeyGP1378 | Yes, gravity | 20:16 |
| ioria | gravity | 20:17 |
| TJ- | well yes it has booted but maybe there's something upsets the Linux kernel that the firmware ignores :D | 20:17 |
| MickeyGP1378 | Ok i put the usb in another port | 20:17 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: what you describe suggests there is a solder break on the connector of the USB device | 20:17 |
| MickeyGP1378 | Oh | 20:17 |
| MickeyGP1378 | My | 20:17 |
| MickeyGP1378 | God | 20:17 |

| MickeyGP1378 | Yes | 20:18 |
| MickeyGP1378 | IT WORKED FINALLYYYYYYYYYYYYY | 20:19 |
| ioria | i see | 20:19 |
| MickeyGP1378 | Dont even know why it didn't want to boot with the other port even tho i cant get that port working in windows | 20:19 |
| ioria | MickeyGP1378, what linux command you intended to run ? | 20:21 |
| MickeyGP1378 | Efibootmgr | 20:21 |
| ioria | ah | 20:21 |
| MickeyGP1378 | I Hackintoshed my pc before | 20:22 |
| ioria | TJ-, let's go to drink | 20:22 |

| TJ- | ioria: I'm already there :D | 20:22 |
| ioria | ahahah | 20:22 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: the command 'efibootmgr' can be used to edit the boot menu; see "man efibootmgr" for options | 20:24 |
| leagris | Please I need help fixing apparmor="DENIED" operation="open" profile="snap.inkscape.inkscape" name="/home/lea/.config/inkscape/templates | 20:24 |
| MickeyGP1378 | How do i mount partitions lel | 20:25 |
| TJ- | leagris: looks like something to do with snaps not being given permission, not sure why not though | 20:25 |
| leagris | I tried changing the snap profile for inkscape var/lib/snapd/apparmor/profiles/snap.inkscape | 20:26 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: create a directory to mount at, a mountpoint, e.g. "mkdir /mnt/target; mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/target" | 20:26 |
| MickeyGP1378 | I can put whatever name i want in "target" right? | 20:26 |
| leagris | But anything I change there is overwritten once I restart snapd | 20:27 |
| TJ- | MickeyGP1378: sure, it's usually an empty directory to act as a mountpoint for the block device | 20:27 |
| leagris | How can I get ride of apparmor and snapd alltogaether to get my applications working correctly? | 20:28 |
| leagris | What are these stuff annoying and imparing usability? | 20:28 |
| MickeyGP1378 | How do i delete a partition | 20:29 |

| craigbass76 | Is there any way to get chgrp to work on group names instead of GID? Haven't found an option yet for that, but craig has different GIDs on two different computers, so is there a way to get chgrp to reference the name instead of GID? | 20:36 |
| ikonia | craigbass76: chgrp works on names | 20:37 |
| craigbass76 | ikonia: by default? | 20:37 |
| craigbass76 | I don't see a switch for it in the man pages | 20:38 |
| ikonia | craigbass76: chgrp group file | 20:38 |
| craigbass76 | I wonder if doing it over an sshfs is screwing it up some. | 20:39 |
| craigbass76 | ikonia: rsync -avz -e ssh /this/dir/ remoteuser@remotehost:/remote/dir worked fine. Must have something to do with sshfs and UID/GID | 20:43 |
| ikonia | rsync is nothing to do with chgrp | 20:44 |
| Slade | does artful ardvark still use iptables? | 20:49 |
| Slade | i know theres some changes in there. | 20:49 |
| ikonia | what changes ? | 20:49 |
| ikonia | it still uses iptable | 20:49 |
| Slade | ikonia, with netplan and all t hat | 20:49 |
| ikonia | thats just a descriptor | 20:50 |
| Slade | yea cant use the old files anymore tho.. stugglign with some docker problems with resolution so trying to figure it out | 20:51 |
| Slade | name resolution that is | 20:51 |
| ikonia | Slade: you can still use the old files just fine | 20:51 |
| craigbass76 | ikonia: but ifi'd sshfs-ed into the remote box, and the GID of the craig user is 1000 there, not 1002 like on the local box, that wouldn't cause a problem? Straight up rsync worked fine, so I'm guessing that was the issue, but I'm curious if you think it's something else. | 20:52 |
| Slade | hm /etc/network/interfaces wasnt happy maybe i screwed up something | 20:52 |
| ikonia | Slade: interface file is nothing to do with iptables | 20:52 |
| Slade | correct. i'm just talking about what i noticed was different | 20:52 |
| ikonia | craigbass76: I have no idea what you where doing in the first place, I just answered your question chgrp | 20:52 |
| Slade | iptables sprung to mind as something messy regarding docker | 20:53 |

| yongo | hi. using ubuntu 16.04. my ubuntu gnome desktop won't load anymore. i have no taskbar, no unity sidebar, keyboard shortcuts don't work anymore (ie no alt-tab, windows key, alt-f4,...) | 20:56 |
| yongo | what to do? | 20:56 |
| yongo | i already reinstalled gnome package and unity, but nothing changed | 20:57 |
| yongo | it all happened yesterday out of the blue. i think the day before i installed system updates, no idea if that could have caused it | 20:57 |
| craigbass76 | ikonia: after I ran sshfs parkers:/data1/craig /home/craig/data1, when I try to rsync from /home/folder to ~/data1/folder/ I get the chgrp error. If I just do an rsync in the format of that other command I pasted, it's fine | 20:57 |
| TJ- | yongo: you're not the 1st; we've had a lot of similar reports. It is something to do with the user's config for desktop confusing some updated package but we're not sure what specifically | 20:58 |
| yongo | TJ-, thanks. any workaround so far? | 20:59 |
| TJ- | yongo: last I saw people were moving aside $HOME/.config/ to a back-up name but that's sort-of sledgehammer because it moves all your local config settings | 21:00 |
| TJ- | yongo: it could be $HOME/.cache/ though, and that's dispensible, so you could try renaming that directory first | 21:00 |
| yongo | TJ-, thanks, i'll try that. my desktop is pretty vanilla anyway, so there's not too much to lose | 21:01 |
| yongo | the worst is that i have to restart everytime i want to switch to a different app cause i have no alt-tab and all the window controls like minimize etc are gone | 21:01 |
| TJ- | yongo: we found creating a new user there is no problem, so it's definitely something in existing user settings | 21:02 |
| yongo | TJ-, i see. thanks for advice, i'll try it out! | 21:02 |
| yongo | TJ-, alright, the sledgehammer worked :) | 21:08 |
| TJ- | yongo: :) could you do a diff of the old/new see if we can discover what setting upset it? | 21:08 |

| yongo | TJ-, no, the desktop is still here | 21:22 |

| Musk_of_justice | Is it worth dropping windows altogether ? | 21:54 |
| Musk_of_justice | I've been torn between linux and windows for ages | 21:55 |
| Musk_of_justice | using windows for games and specifix applications | 21:55 |
| TJ- | Musk_of_justice: try them side by side, both have strengths and weaknesses and it can depend on what hardware it's running on too | 21:56 |
| Musk_of_justice | so dualboot basically | 21:57 |
| Musk_of_justice | its always useful having windows around | 21:57 |
| rmunson | *dies inside* | 21:58 |
| Musk_of_justice | haha | 21:58 |
| Musk_of_justice | windows is useful for windows installation usbs | 21:58 |
| akik | Musk_of_justice: you can make a windows installation usb in linux too | 21:59 |
| Musk_of_justice | i sometimes do pc repair and such | 21:59 |
| Musk_of_justice | but its a little trickier | 21:59 |
| Musk_of_justice | also... game performance | 21:59 |
| Musk_of_justice | and game variety | 22:00 |
| TJ- | Musk_of_justice: I've not used/installed Windows since 2005 so it is certainly possible to do without it | 22:05 |
| Musk_of_justice | I'll try to do similar | 22:07 |
| rmunson | I do windows pc repair using linux and it's tools... | 22:11 |
| rmunson | so absolutely possible. | 22:11 |
| Musk_of_justice | linux master race | 22:12 |
| TJ- | Ironic that most Windows forensics/data recovery requires Linux | 22:14 |
| Draconiator | Heh, I noticed that too. | 22:15 |
| Draconiator | I think that uses Tinycore | 22:15 |
| Draconiator | and yet I know my way around Windows like the back of my hand, but when it comes to Linux I'm next to a complete n00b. | 22:17 |
| rmunson | Embrace the dark side. | 22:17 |
| Musk_of_justice | today i had to remember compiling so i could modify my ipod classic | 22:18 |
| Musk_of_justice | this stuff makes me love computers | 22:18 |
| Musk_of_justice | when in doubt , just ./ | 22:19 |
| Draconiator | going back to Win10 when the new hard drive comes in. I only use Linux when my main hard drive dies. LOVE it for that but seriously the only way I got it to SOME semblance of what I'm used to is Google. | 22:20 |
| Musk_of_justice | google is good | 22:21 |
| Musk_of_justice | but duckduckgo + irc is better | 22:21 |
| Musk_of_justice | so i got 128 gb flashdrive | 22:24 |
| Musk_of_justice | would it be enough for all possible linux based repair oriented distros/tools? | 22:24 |
| TJ- | Musk_of_justice: I've a 2GB tool I've used for years which is enough, so the answer is definitely yes :) | 22:26 |
| Kumool | Draconiator, and you'll always be one. at least when it comes to linux, however other OS's are better for learning | 22:26 |
| Kumool | for example the freebsd handbook teaches you everything you need to know about the OS, well most of everything, what's left is knowing C and hacking the kernel, but you can learn everything about it | 22:28 |
| Musk_of_justice | thanks TJ, I'll go ahead and fill it :> little moneymaker | 22:28 |
| Nokaji | Hi, anyone wanna suggest an easy way to connect my 16.04 ubuntu PC to my android phone - I can use a cable or wifi router? | 22:29 |
| jeremy31 | Nokaji USB | 22:29 |
| Nokaji | I've used Software DataCable a few times successfully but I use it so rarely, I never rememebr how to fire it up | 22:30 |
| Nokaji | jeremy31: I'll look in to that | 22:30 |
| jeremy31 | You will likely have to go into USB options on the phone and select MTP or file transfer if you want to copy/delete files on the phone | 22:31 |
| vlt | Musk_of_justice: I've been using grml.org as my repair distro for years now. | 22:31 |
| Nokaji | jeremy31: okie - it does sound so simple I'm sure I tired it before resorting to otehr methods ... what you say may be the clue i needed | 22:32 |
| Draconiator | Ubuntu for me. or Xubuntu currently. Used pure Ubuntu last time this hapenned. | 22:32 |
| jeremy31 | Nokaji Sometimes USB debugging needs to be enabled in developer options on the Android phone | 22:33 |
| Nokaji | jeremy31: I don't have root enabled, hopefully that won't matter too much | 22:34 |
| jeremy31 | Nokaji USB debugging can be enabled on Android without root | 22:35 |
| Nokaji | showsme 'MVP' & File Empty at the moment ut you've given me some trickts to try | 22:35 |

| lighthunter | TJ-: apologies if you already saw these messages, but replaying them in case they slipped by. I failed miserably to get the resume callback approach you described working. However, I noticed https://github.com/hhfeuer/nvhda/blob/master/scripts/nvhda-resume.service and https://github.com/hhfeuer/nvhda/blob/master/scripts/nvhda-suspend.service. | 22:39 |
| lighthunter | These make me think hhfeuer deliberately left out the resume callback and other things that would need to be changed to transition their DKMS module from prototype to full-fledged. They don't actually seem to work for me though. When I come back from suspend, I lose audio over HDMI. I think I am probably in over my head on this one. | 22:40 |

| TJ- | lighthunter: at least you got audio working at all, that was progress! | 22:43 |
| lighthunter | like i said though, it doesn't actually work. (I never use suspend, so I am okay with the current state of affairs; I just figure this is helpful information if you decide to proceed.) | 22:43 |
| lighthunter | yes, that was really all i was hoping to achieve, so i am perfectly satisfied. thanks again for the help. | 22:44 |
| TJ- | lighthunter: we see a lot of these issues related to proprietary/closed-source code; it's so frustrating not to be able to dive in an fix it properly, or be guessing on how it works internally | 22:45 |
| lighthunter | yes, i am aware. and the HW vendors tend only to test their code with Windows, which makes the lives of Linux driver developers dramatically more difficult. | 22:46 |
| manudavidos | Hello, I just installed Ubuntu 17.10 and I don't have sound, speakers show up on Pulseaudio but I can't hear anything | 22:47 |
| samthewildone | I just installed PopOS a ubuntu fork from system76, the problem is my wimax is located but unable to connect to my service. | 22:47 |
| samthewildone | Am I missing any drivers ? | 22:47 |
| TJ- | samthewildone: we only support Ubuntu here, not derivatives | 22:48 |
| samthewildone | TJ-, thanks for pointing me in the right direction, I really appreciated it. | 22:48 |
| TJ- | manudavidos: could the wrong profile be selected? check the Configuration tab of pavucontrol | 22:48 |
| rmunson | "unofficial" derivatives...which PopOS does fall under. | 22:49 |
| manudavidos | T3: Tried to do so, doesn't work | 22:49 |
| Nokaji | jeremy31: I.ve set up those options. The drive auto-opens in 'files', display proper name "Moto G(4)" however there are no files displayed. Right-clicking properties produces a list of "unknown"'s, I also get PERMISSIONS usb:008,007 (mtp) 'could not be determined' | 22:49 |
| TJ- | manudavidos: another thing to check, from terminal, is to run 'alsamixer' and check the sound device doesn't have a separate 'mute' or 'automute' toggle, or master/pcm volume set to 0 | 22:50 |
| manudavidos | T3: Thanks, I'll try it now | 22:50 |
| TJ- | manudavidos: also, is the built-in audio the default device. We're seeing a lot of systems recently where HDMI audio is being found first and set as the default. When an application is playing sound, in the pavucontrol Playback tab, check which output the application is sending to, and try changing it (drop-down menu on right side of application/meida name) | 22:52 |
| jeremy31 | Nokaji Any other new objects in file manager? Some Motorola devices have Windows drivers on them that cause issues with accessing the file system | 22:52 |
| Nokaji | ... | 22:52 |
| Nokaji | did see a 192.168.... IP number, it said "busy", I closed it down and will re-conect the phone, in case | 22:53 |
| Nokaji | jeremy31: thanks - I'm looking on google too for the error code | 22:54 |
| Nokaji | jeremy31: I've opened it in terminal (I'm a novice), gone up a couple of CD. and can see some files at "/run/user/1000/" | 22:57 |
| manudavidos | T3: Looked at it, Master set to 100 no mute or automute toggle | 22:57 |
| manudavidos | T3: Any other suggestions? | 22:57 |
| TJ- | manudavidos: you may have missed my last suggestion... | 22:58 |
| TJ- | manudavidos: also, is the built-in audio the default device. We're seeing a lot of systems recently where HDMI audio is being found first and set as the default. When an application is playing sound, in the pavucontrol Playback tab, check which output the application is sending to, and try changing it (drop-down menu on right side of application/meida name) | 22:58 |
| Nokaji | just maybe i can do a 'copy (all)' command and then search at my leisure | 22:58 |
| Nokaji | oops, silly me ... this is ubuntu files | 22:58 |
| manudavidos | T3: It doesn't allow me to change the output | 23:03 |
| manudavidos | T3: I'm using Xiaomi MI Air laptop | 23:03 |
| neopsyche | helo all | 23:04 |
| TJ- | manudavidos: I'm not sure then, if you've got the correct profile selected and the correct default (built-in) device | 23:04 |
