| MarchHare | Okay, anyone got time to help me get to the bottom of a minor annoying problem? I've got on-mobo sound with a mic, line in, and line out. No phono plug. It works, but with a caveat. It seems like when I have it hooked to the sound system, if I let the sound sit idle for more than a trivial amount of time (maybe <30s, not sure on this), when I start playing audio again, it takes about 5 seconds for the audio to start playing on the | 02:15 |
| MarchHare | sound system. This doesn't appear to happen if I hook a headphone right up to line out, and the sound system seems to play immediately when I hook up other devices directly to it. So all signs seem to be pointing at some kind of power-save on the sound card. But the things I've found don't seem to be helping eliminate that delay. | 02:15 |

| cpaelzer | seth: "off the linux kernel" I assume you mean using isolcpus (if not you should) | 06:01 |
| cpaelzer | seth: also use pinning for the vcpu | 06:01 |
| seth | Pinning doesn't help much. | 06:01 |
| cpaelzer | I mean in general all of this kills plenty of the flexibility virt gives you, but if all you need is better latency why not | 06:02 |
| seth | My audio is fine with high dpc latency since I use MSI interrupts. | 06:02 |
| cpaelzer | further consider general things like backing your guest with huge pages for less faults and better tlb handling | 06:02 |
| seth | And my first 2 CPUs are using kernel params and bound to the VM so all interrupts are handled by the CPUs which aren't being used by the kernel. | 06:02 |
| seth | GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash intel_iommu=on isolcpus=2-3 nohz_full=2-3 rcu_nocbs=2-3 pcie_acs_override=downstream" | 06:03 |
| seth | I have 4 Cores, first 2 are used by Linux Host, but they are not bound to the VM whatsoever, because that may have kernel spikes. | 06:03 |
| cpaelzer | also maybe mlock the memory | 06:04 |
| cpaelzer | of the guest | 06:04 |
| cpaelzer | DPC =~ RT isn't it | 06:04 |
| cpaelzer | wasn't there a lwn article once ... ? | 06:05 |
| cpaelzer | seth: yeah I think https://lwn.net/Articles/656807/ should be a good read | 06:05 |
| seth | Doesn't Ubuntu come with a RT kernel? | 06:06 |
| seth | Do I need to compile my own kernel? | 06:06 |
| seth | I was using Antergos Arch then switched to Ubuntu 18.04 Beta, it is actually more stable than Antergos. | 06:06 |
| seth | Which I am surprised. | 06:06 |
| cpaelzer | it is an LTS, despite the usual tething troubles at this time it should be more stable :-) | 06:07 |
| rama_vm | arch linux not booting, ldlnux.c32 not working | 06:07 |
| cpaelzer | seth: RT kernel is no more due to upstream, but there is a -lowlatency kernel you could consider | 06:08 |
| seth | What about timers like HPET and HyperV clock? | 06:09 |
| seth | I disabled these. | 06:09 |
| seth | My DPS latency spikes to like 2k and have some services in Windows like internet go up to like 20k. | 06:09 |
| cpaelzer | I'm not good on timers seth (used mainframe for too long and just used to good timers :-) ) | 06:13 |
| cpaelzer | but in general lock, nonshared, vcpupin, emulatorpin, isolcpus - if all these are in place then ?? | 06:14 |

| Skaface82 | yeah cause the permissions are set for a windows OS, I think the linux driver has to set its own permissions instead, so therefore you have to specify what those permissions are | 08:36 |

| nikolam | ducasse, ah, I was thinking , like, some binary linux installation, with executable shell script. If it does not see it as executable | 09:01 |
| nikolam | e.g. starting application installation from it | 09:01 |
| Skaface82 | i guess you could install on a loopfs that is on the ntfs partition | 09:01 |
| Skaface82 | if you really wanted to lol | 09:02 |
| nikolam | Well, that's not wise I think and I don't know if it is even supported. Anyway just mounting ntfs in real life is the thing | 09:02 |
| nikolam | Thanks for discussion, folks, Cu :P | 09:05 |
| Skaface82 | no worries good luck | 09:05 |

| emilsp | hey guys, how does one go about getting a libssl.so.1.1.0 in a reasonable path? I'm trying to run a binary I'm working on,a nd it's really hard to get it running on 17.10 because it can't find the ssl library :( | 10:47 |
| adrian_1908 | emilsp: so you're writing a program? If so, this would probably be a better question for a programming related channel. | 10:49 |
| emilsp | I'm working on a program that works well on both debian and Fedora, I think this is more of a library-installing question than a programming question :( | 10:50 |
| adrian_1908 | emilsp: as a quick hack, you can try setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/path/to/libssl" in your active bash session and invoking your binary afterwards. | 10:50 |
| emilsp | ls | 10:50 |
| emilsp | oh god, I apologize for my mistargeted commands. | 10:50 |
| cfhowlett | emilsp, not to worry. you are neither the first nor the last ... | 10:51 |
| adrian_1908 | emilsp: Is the libssl version from elsewhere than the package manager? I think 17.10 has v1.0 only, right? | 10:52 |
| emilsp | That seems to be the case, yes. Is that the only one available from official repos? | 10:52 |
| ikonia | you don't want to use ssl from 3rd parties | 10:52 |
| emilsp | exactly. | 10:52 |
| adrian_1908 | yeah, looks like libssl1.0.0 is the highest on 17.10 | 10:52 |
| adrian_1908 | correction: libssl1.0.2 actually, but not 1.1 either way. | 10:53 |
| emilsp | I'll try and build the binary on ubuntu and see if it links against libssl1.0 then. | 10:53 |
| jamz2 | hi, is there a way to pass argument to script invoked via pipe? | 10:53 |
| adrian_1908 | yeah, that should would out of the box (the linker finding it etc.) | 10:53 |
| jamz2 | Say there is a myscript.sh that accepts -c and -d arguments, we can normally run it as "./myscript.sh -c 1 -d hello". | 10:53 |
| jamz2 | can we pass same with pipe? | 10:53 |
| ikonia | jamz2: how do you invoke a script via pipe ? | 10:53 |
| jamz2 | I tried: "curl http://site/myscript.sh | bash -- -c 1 -d hello" | 10:54 |
| jamz2 | without parameter, it works | 10:54 |
| ikonia | jamz2: that's not really going to work is it | 10:54 |
| jamz2 | "curl http://site/myscript.sh | bash" | 10:54 |
| EriC^^ | jamz2: "man xargs" | 10:54 |
| emilsp | whilst I'm here, is there a way to configure qemu guest __stuff__ easily? It sort of just worked out of the box on Fedora, and I've installed and enabled qemu-guest-agent | 10:56 |
| jamz2 | EricC, thanks not sure how to work with those curlies :D | 10:56 |
| ikonia | emilsp: what sort of thing | 10:57 |
| emilsp | I want auto-resolution resizing and copy-paste to work with libvirt | 10:57 |
| ikonia | emilsp: that should be just a set of params in the default VM template | 10:58 |

| jamz2 | EricC^^, tried "curl http://site/myscript.sh | xargs -I {} bash {} -c 1 -d hello" but no dice :( | 11:01 |
| Soul_Sample | cap: you could probably install some GNOME extensions that replace the "launchpad" with a more classic menu. Panels is also doable via extensions, but at that point you could perhaps check out other desktops like Budgie or MATE | 11:02 |
| cap | @akik no i haven't for many years now. i want to try ubuntu 17.10 for now. just hoping to fix the 'issues' first. | 11:02 |
| ducasse | azizLIGHT: see the topic in #ubuntu+1 for link to the release schedule | 11:03 |
| EriC^^ | jamz2: you could do "bash <(curl http://site/myscript.sh) -c 1 -d hello | 11:03 |
| EriC^^ | " | 11:03 |
| cap | @Soul_Sample i've already tried that yesterday with no success, i was only get to work the arc theme which i love. | 11:04 |
| jamz2 | EricC^^, thanks a lot! this is awesome. TIL something tyvm! | 11:04 |
| Soul_Sample | cap: no success of finding what you need or generally no success installing extensions? | 11:04 |
| cap | @Soul_Sample i've installed the extensions for the most part, but the one that is not working is the applications menu from gnome-looks.org. | 11:05 |
| Soul_Sample | cap: do you mean extensions.gnome.org? there should be plenty others (and more maintained) menu extensions than just one | 11:06 |
| cap | @Sould_sample yes that's the one. | 11:07 |
| cap | is it possible to bring back the unity launcher without the side dock? | 11:08 |
| akik | cap: you could also install unity | 11:09 |
| azizLIGHT | april 26 wow! | 11:09 |
| cap | @akik really. i'll look into it :) | 11:09 |
| cap | im looking into budgie right now. looks neat, but the dock is still there. | 11:10 |
| akik | cap: it's in the universe repository | 11:10 |
| BluesKaj | Hi folks | 11:10 |
| cap | Thanks @Soul_Sample and @akik ;) | 11:11 |
| Soul_Sample | akik: but if cap doesn't like "mobile" interfaces, then Unity may not be the best choice. I know it's not a mobile interface, but it GAMFI (gives a mobile first impression) :) | 11:15 |
| akik | Soul_Sample: that's why i suggested mate first :) | 11:15 |
| Soul_Sample | cap: in budgie you can move panels around however you want, have one, three, or five. normal task list, iconified task list, start menus, it's really configurable. the newest budgie doesn't even have the dock by default anymore | 11:16 |
| cap | Guys i've installed budgie in the terminal, so what i have to now is logoff? | 11:18 |

| BlackDalek_ | ok.. so messages I can send.. but I can't see any responses in telnet... I was just trying out IRC on telnet. But I guess it doesn't work because I see no messages in channel except my own. | 12:10 |
| Sven_vB | BlackDalek_, did you receive a ping request that you haven't ponged yet? | 12:11 |
| BlackDalek_ | I was experimenting with the stock telnet client that comes with Ubuntu. | 12:11 |
| BlackDalek_ | I never received any ping request yet | 12:11 |
| Sven_vB | BlackDalek_, also use netcat instead of telnet. afail IRC doesn't need telnet negotiation. | 12:11 |
| Sven_vB | or socat, it's even mightier than netcat. | 12:11 |
| Sven_vB | you might want rlwrap with both of them. | 12:12 |

| BlackDalek | Sven_vB, I really only became interested in telnet again because a telnet client recently became available from old Amstrad CPC 8-bit computers.

| Vamp898 | Hi there, i have an Ubuntu 16.04 Machine with an weird issue. I have an BASH Script which first sets 3 variables and then executes 2 python commands. When i run this script manually, it works just fine, when i run the script with cron it only executes the first python command and then stops | 12:56 |
| Vamp898 | I setup the MAILTO to see whats wrong, but all i got in the mail was the output of the first command | 12:57 |
| rory | Vamp898: you need to specify full paths in scripts run by cron | 13:03 |
| rory | Vamp898: paths to the Python scripts | 13:03 |
| rory | Vamp898: e.g. /home/vamp/scripts/foo.py NOT ~/scripts/foo.py | 13:04 |
| EriC^^ | Vamp898: the environment in cron is different, $HOME $PATH etc | 13:04 |
| tomreyn | also the path to python itself should be fully qualified. | 13:04 |
| EriC^^ | Vamp898: add some log to your scripts so the second one gives an output and error log | 13:04 |
| Vamp898 | The first command is "python setup.py" and the second command is "python /path/to/script.py". The first command works, the second not | 13:05 |
| Vamp898 | the second one already produces debug output i can see when i run the BASH script manually, but when i run it using cron, there is just nothing | 13:05 |
| tomreyn | might be a permission issue then | 13:05 |
| Vamp898 | identical access rights on both files | 13:06 |
| Vamp898 | both have 644 and the same user/group | 13:06 |
| tomreyn | and directories? | 13:06 |
| Vamp898 | they are in the same directory (dont ask me why the first one doesn't use the full path, but im going to fix it now | 13:07 |
| Vamp898 | The script is not written by me, im just here to setup the cronjob | 13:07 |
| Vamp898 | the second python script uses sudo in the script, could that be a problem? | 13:09 |
| ne2k | I have a weird problem on xenial. when running the spotify application, using pulse as the audio server, I get a dropout in the music of about 0.5–1s when I close certain other windows, e.g. terminal emulator, chrome, etc. it doesn't happen every time I close a window, but it happens a lot and is very annoying. any ideas of how to debug what might be causing it? | 13:10 |

| jeffreylevesque | i'd like to do `apt-get install python-dev=latest` | 13:17 |
| jeffreylevesque | that way i can parametrize `latest`, with a bash variable | 13:17 |
| jeffreylevesque | is there something i can use instead of latest? | 13:18 |
| Sven_vB | I'm not sure I understand. you want to use a variable in a bash command, to select the version of a package to be installed? | 13:18 |
| Sven_vB | I guess your bash command is part of a bash script? | 13:19 |
| jeffreylevesque | yup | 13:19 |
| Sven_vB | how about $PKG_VER | 13:19 |
| OerHeks | apt does not understand python-dev=latest | 13:19 |
| leftyfb | jeffreylevesque: installing python-dev will install the latest available to your version of ubuntu | 13:20 |
| jeffreylevesque | nice | 13:20 |
| jeffreylevesque | how do i parametrize it | 13:20 |
| leftyfb | for what? | 13:20 |
| jeffreylevesque | in case i want to install a different version | 13:20 |
| OerHeks | there are no parameters, afaik | 13:20 |
| jeffreylevesque | i'd like to do `apt-get install python-dev=xxx` | 13:20 |
| jeffreylevesque | that works but `xxx` has to be valid | 13:21 |
| jeffreylevesque | can't be `latest` | 13:21 |
| leftyfb | jeffreylevesque: in the absence of the parameter, just install python-dev | 13:21 |
| Sven_vB | "man apt-get" has "install pkg [{=pkg_version_number |…}]" | 13:21 |
| OerHeks | or python3-dev | 13:22 |
| Sven_vB | oh ic, so you need to make the "=" conditional | 13:22 |
| jeffreylevesque | yeah | 13:22 |
| leftyfb | do that in your script | 13:22 |
| jeffreylevesque | i'm parameterizing my puppet module | 13:22 |
| jeffreylevesque | having it install at default | 13:22 |
| jeffreylevesque | but, allowing users to install at a version of their choosing | 13:22 |
| Sven_vB | then you should probably use puppet's package type instead of apt. | 13:23 |
| jeffreylevesque | in case latest breaks | 13:23 |
| jeffreylevesque | i am | 13:23 |
| leftyfb | jeffreylevesque: then you want #puppet | 13:23 |
| jeffreylevesque | package { "python-dev=xxx": ensure => installed, provider => xxx } | 13:24 |
| jeffreylevesque | "python-dev=xxx" is just fed into `apt-get install ___` | 13:24 |
| leftyfb | jeffreylevesque: Go to #puppet for support with how to use puppet. What you're looking for is not an aspect of apt, but of how to use puppet | 13:24 |
| Sven_vB | as for how to make the = conditional in bash, use ${PKG_VER:+=}$PKG_VER, or construct a temporary variable conditionally. | 13:24 |
| jeffreylevesque | maybe `=xxx` will have to be a variable it self | 13:25 |
| jeffreylevesque | kind of funky | 13:25 |
| leftyfb | it will, in puppet | 13:25 |
| jeffreylevesque | thanks | 13:25 |
| jeffreylevesque | sorry to bother | 13:25 |
| OerHeks | i think you need to do that in virtualenv, with python-pip ?? | 13:27 |
| OerHeks | if you list all python-dev packages, only one shows up, AFAIK | 13:28 |
| jeffreylevesque | $python_dev = "=${::sklearn::python_dev}" | 13:28 |

| OerHeks | MJCD, so if you use external debs, install them manually and use the tip from leftyfb ... | 13:34 |
| MJCD | lol ok good so basically just ignore a point of bad ux | 13:34 |
| MJCD | and work around it | 13:34 |
| OerHeks | MJCD, chrome-browseer, we are not allowed to package it in our repos. | 13:34 |
| OerHeks | license issue | 13:34 |
| MJCD | OerHeks, right, exactly | 13:34 |
| OerHeks | no other linux version can do that | 13:35 |
| MJCD | right | 13:35 |
| leftyfb | MJCD: chrome has their own repo | 13:35 |
| MJCD | right | 13:35 |
| leftyfb | so use that | 13:35 |
| MJCD | so im capable of doing that entirely via gui | 13:35 |
| Maakay | it is possible to have back -> this desktop again it seems to be an old gnome desktop right ? -> http://superubuntu.linuxfreedom.com/images/SuperOSDesktop2.jpg | 13:35 |
| MJCD | adding that using synaptic | 13:35 |
| MJCD | so that's fine | 13:36 |
| OerHeks | leftyfb, +1, that chrome deb is just a repo line & key | 13:36 |
| MJCD | no issues there | 13:36 |
| superkuh | Maakay, you can use the MATE desktop. | 13:36 |
| MJCD | its just that when you click install it dissapears into headless land | 13:36 |
| Maakay | mate is so ugly :s :( | 13:36 |
| MJCD | and I have no idea when its actually done | 13:36 |
| superkuh | What? | 13:36 |
| superkuh | I mean, you gotta tweak it. | 13:36 |
| MJCD | ^^ | 13:36 |
| superkuh | But my MATE desktop looks almost exactly like the the Gnome2 desktop I'm typing this on. | 13:36 |
| leftyfb | Maakay: https://www.debugpoint.com/2016/04/install-classic-gnome-flashback-in-ubuntu-16-04-replacing-unity/ | 13:37 |
| MJCD | superkuh, get some themes you like from the respective marketplaces | 13:37 |
| MJCD | done/done | 13:37 |
| JimBuntu | MJCD, if you right-click the .deb, do you not have the option to open it with Ubuntu Software Center? | 13:37 |
| MJCD | JimBuntu, oh that might be an idea | 13:37 |
| Maakay | thanks leftyfb :) | 13:37 |
| superkuh | That's not really a good option. Gnome Classic. | 13:37 |
| MJCD | I think currently its set to use gdeb | 13:38 |
| superkuh | MATE is better since you actually get the real thing, like nautilus scripts (but now called caja scripts). | 13:38 |
| leftyfb | superkuh: that's called an opinion | 13:38 |
| superkuh | Yes. | 13:38 |
| MJCD | let me see if I can just make synaptic the preferred app | 13:38 |
| leftyfb | superkuh: I've been using gnome classic since Unity was released | 13:38 |
| superkuh | Looks like gnome2, doesn't work like gnome 2. But probably the best options is trying all of them. gnome classic/flashback, MATE, the cinnamon one that's gnome2'y, etc. | 13:39 |
| superkuh | No accounting for taste. | 13:39 |
| MJCD | ok so I right click the .deb file I want to install | 13:41 |
| MJCD | and its default is gdebi | 13:41 |
| MJCD | so I go select another app | 13:41 |
| MJCD | but synaptic or anything isnt showing in the list | 13:41 |
| MJCD | im pretty sure I uninstalled software centre | 13:41 |
| MJCD | because synaptic is life, is love | 13:41 |
| leftyfb | MJCD: so you broke the UX you're complaining about | 13:42 |
| MJCD | leftyfb, no that is gdebi's UX | 13:42 |
| MJCD | I will change it but I dont currently have a better option installed | 13:42 |
| MJCD | software centre sucks | 13:42 |
| leftyfb | MJCD: Ubuntu will open software center by default and asks you if you want to install it and gives you a nice progress bad ... you know .... a UX | 13:42 |
| OerHeks | sudo dpkg -i /path/to/<name>.deb and hit enter | 13:43 |
| OerHeks | lolz | 13:43 |
| leftyfb | bad/bar* | 13:43 |
| MJCD | leftyfb, I should note im using ubuntu mate | 13:43 |
| OerHeks | such a rant, for his own creation | 13:43 |
| MJCD | its not my own creation | 13:43 |
| MJCD | its factory default I just shed some weight because its for a vm | 13:43 |
| OerHeks | No, it is not factory default, and i leave you now with your issue. | 13:44 |
| leftyfb | superkuh: https://photos.app.goo.gl/l18ycNiLgePqXPQ62 | 13:44 |
| MJCD | It is default to use gdebi in ubuntu mate | 13:44 |
| MJCD | I have a clean vm and just confirmed | 13:44 |
| leftyfb | then complain to the MATE team | 13:44 |
| MJCD | so its their UX I dont like | 13:45 |
| nemesit|znc | anyone know why my proliant server does not seem to start grub? | 13:45 |
| MJCD | its not MATE who handle it, its the gdebi team | 13:45 |
| superkuh | I don't think that statement about gdebi and MATE is true. | 13:45 |
| MJCD | I suppose I could submit an issue | 13:45 |
| * leftyfb sigh | 13:45 | |
| superkuh | But maybe they've changed in the last year? | 13:45 |
| superkuh | And yeah, leftyfb, I know it can look like gnome 2. But it doesn't function like it. Also that Mac bar. :| | 13:45 |
| MJCD | so the unanimous answer is; use software centre? | 13:46 |
| leftyfb | superkuh: I added that because I like it | 13:46 |
| leftyfb | superkuh: and yes, it functions just fine | 13:46 |
| MJCD | aaah in synaptic there's just a menu button for adding a downloaded package | 13:47 |
| MJCD | yay | 13:47 |
| MJCD | urgh | 13:48 |
| leftyfb | I think I've used synaptic like twice in my life. It's almost the opposite of user friendly | 13:48 |
| MJCD | but wont let me select that one package | 13:48 |
| superkuh | leftyfb, you can run nautilus scripts on it? | 13:48 |
| MJCD | I dont mind synaptic | 13:48 |
| MJCD | aptitude is ok too | 13:48 |
| MJCD | but people will be remoting into these vm's so ideally everything that CAN have a gui SHOULD have a gui | 13:49 |
| MJCD | synaptic wont recognize any of these .deb files | 13:52 |
| MJCD | just tried chrome, same thing, wont select | 13:52 |
| MJCD | its greyed out | 13:52 |
| MJCD | agg | 13:52 |
| leftyfb | sudo dpkg -i <pkg.deb> | 13:52 |
| MJCD | is the software centre package just called software-centre | 13:52 |
| hrsykov | hello | 13:54 |
| MJCD | very confused why add downloaded package | 13:56 |
| MJCD | doesn't work in synaptic | 13:56 |
| MJCD | with 2x .deb files | 13:56 |
| lotuspsychje | MJCD: have you checked if your package is in our repos? | 13:56 |
| MJCD | chrome isnt | 13:57 |
| MJCD | and this other one isnt either I dont believe | 13:57 |
| MJCD | its a early stage systemd-manager gui | 13:58 |
| tomreyn | i think you can actually "apt install /path/to/package.deb" nowadays. less experienced users are more likely to break their system by installing (random) 'deb' files using this direct approach, though. | 13:59 |
| MJCD | hey I don't care how they choose to distribute their stuff | 13:59 |
| MJCD | I just wanna use it | 13:59 |
| MJCD | and yes I can open a terminal and do it | 13:59 |
| MJCD | but that's working around the problem not solving it | 13:59 |
| MJCD | certainly not ideal | 14:00 |
| TJ- | tomreyn: correct, but *must* use an absolute or relative path component ! | 14:02 |
| generalfluffles | i need immediate help | 14:03 |
| JimBuntu | !ask | generalfluffles | 14:03 |
| ubottu | generalfluffles: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 14:03 |
| generalfluffles | okay ubottu i apologize | 14:03 |

| JimBuntu | generalfluffles, no worries, I was simply giving you the info so that you could get immediate help | 14:04 |
| generalfluffles | i receive this question in terminal | 14:04 |
| generalfluffles | Which Java Virtual Machine would you like to use? | 14:04 |
| generalfluffles | Note: the JVM must be version 1.5.0 or newer. | 14:04 |
| generalfluffles | what do i reply? | 14:04 |
| MJCD | ok, meh `apt install ./goog.deb` | 14:05 |
| generalfluffles | ive installed openjdk-8 and 9 | 14:05 |
| MJCD | still annoying, software centre is trash | 14:05 |
| OerHeks | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java#Choosing_the_default_Java_to_use | 14:05 |
| MJCD | its as trash as the microsoft store | 14:05 |
| generalfluffles | software center is trash | 14:05 |
| generalfluffles | yes | 14:05 |
| lotuspsychje | MJCD: dont generalize things like that in this channel please | 14:05 |
| MJCD | lotuspsychje, that complaint makes no sense lol | 14:05 |
| lotuspsychje | MJCD: if you want to discuss something, move to #ubuntu-discuss please | 14:05 |
| MJCD | I was seeking support and we got it resolved. :/ | 14:06 |

| MJCD | peace | 14:06 |
| generalfluffles | thanks OerHeks | 14:08 |
| TJ- | Is there a way to configure netplan with systemd-networkd when the interface names are not known? Seems like a major defect if not | 14:08 |
| leftyfb | I think netplan is a major defect. Not ready for primetime | 14:09 |
| leftyfb | I really hope I'll still be able to use ifupdown with 18.04 | 14:09 |
| BluesKaj | I tried netplan, it works, but the interfaces and ifupdown files are easier to setup | 14:10 |
| akira_ | halo | 14:10 |
| generalfluffles | okay OerHeks thank you really much | 14:11 |
| TJ- | systemd-networkd (when you know the interface details) or network-manager (when you don't) are easier to configure | 14:11 |
| andy_wfc | O | 14:12 |
| lotuspsychje | andy_wfc: how can we help you? | 14:12 |
| andy_wfc | sorry, typo | 14:13 |
| BluesKaj | i avoid network-manager.if possible | 14:13 |
| TJ- | NM is fab, it will auto configure and use DHCP for any interfaces without needing the interface to be configured | 14:14 |
| andy_wfc | I've got a brand new 16.04 machine that's hung shutting down with "a stop job is running". It's been hung now for about 20 minutes so I don't think any kind of timeout is going to kick in. Is there anything I can do that's cleaner than holding down the power button? ctrl+alt+fx won't give me a terminal and ctrl+alt+del doesn't seem to do anything | 14:14 |
| TJ- | andy_wfc:hold down Alt+SysRq then whilst holding them press, in turn, R E I S U B | 14:14 |
| tomreyn | !sysrq | 14:14 |
| ubottu | In an emergency, you may be able to shutdown cleanly and reboot by holding down Alt+PrintScreen and typing slowly, in succession, R, E, I, S, U and B. For an explanation, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key | 14:14 |
| TJ- | andy_wfc: those are kernel commands that clean things up and sync discs before rebooting | 14:14 |
| generalfluffles | i just installed a bin file with chmod a+x name_of_the_file and ./name_of_the_file but i dont know how to run it | 14:16 |
| andy_wfc | TJ: thanks | 14:17 |
| generalfluffles | after i installed it it added a file in my desktop but it isnt jar | 14:17 |
| ne2k | generalfluffles, wut | 14:17 |
| JimBuntu | generalfluffles, what is the complete filename? | 14:17 |
| generalfluffles | ... | 14:18 |
| TJ- | generalfluffles: then you need to read the documentation for the file/package you installed | 14:18 |
| generalfluffles | spiral-install.bin | 14:18 |
| generalfluffles | TJ-, there is none it said "its too simple to need instructions" | 14:18 |
| JimBuntu | ./spiral-install.bin starts it up or no? | 14:19 |
| generalfluffles | it installed it but i dont know how to run it | 14:19 |
| generalfluffles | sooo | 14:19 |
| generalfluffles | after the installation it added a file that shows as an icon a blank page | 14:20 |
| MoonManT | when i try to activate an OpenVPN connection using the network manager command "nmcli connection up vpn_conn" i get the following error "Error: Connection activation failed: Could not find source connection." I only get the error when there is no default route on the ethernet connection does anyone know why? i added static routes to the vpn server. | 14:20 |
| generalfluffles | plus i checked properties and it has Name/Description/Command/Comment | 14:21 |
| generalfluffles | only name and command are filled | 14:21 |
| generalfluffles | can i format it to a java file or will that harm it? | 14:21 |
| ne2k | generalfluffles, where did it install it? | 14:21 |
| generalfluffles | Desktop | 14:21 |
| ne2k | generalfluffles, no it didn't | 14:21 |
| ne2k | it put a shortcut on the desktop | 14:21 |
| yang2009 | hi | 14:22 |
| ne2k | urgh, I'm talking like WIndows. it's a launcher, not a shortcut | 14:22 |
| generalfluffles | eh | 14:22 |
| generalfluffles | but | 14:22 |
| generalfluffles | it | 14:22 |
| generalfluffles | uh | 14:22 |
| generalfluffles | okay | 14:22 |
| generalfluffles | how do i run it | 14:22 |
| generalfluffles | okay | 14:23 |
| ne2k | generalfluffles, I think I've found the thing https://wiki.spiralknights.com/Installation_FAQ is this it? if so, it apparently asks you where you want to install it. so, where did you tell it to install it? | 14:23 |
| generalfluffles | ne2k, i only typed "Desktop" | 14:24 |
| ne2k | generalfluffles, ok, so maybe it did install it in Desktop, then | 14:24 |
| ne2k | did it create files and/or directories in Desktop? | 14:25 |
| generalfluffles | it did | 14:25 |
| ne2k | and is there a file in there called Spiral? | 14:25 |
| duke | I'm having some issues with getting audio playback to work on my shitty trekstor wintron 10.1 tablet, which I installed Lubuntu on the other day. Basically, the drivers seem to be installed just fine and when I play back any audio the audio mixer even shows it playing, but for some reason the audio doesnt get through to the inbuilt speakers nor to any headphones I plug in. It runs an Intel Atom, anyone able to help me out with that? | 14:25 |
| duke | Most other things work just fine, okay, webcam doesnt seem to work yet, but not too worried about it. Just audio seems rather important. | 14:26 |
| generalfluffles | theres a file named Spiral Knights ne2k in desktop but it has no other clues | 14:26 |
| generalfluffles | ne2k, like | 14:26 |
| generalfluffles | can i format it to java? | 14:26 |
| ne2k | duke, does it have an HDMI or S/PDIF audio interface, and might you be playing through that instead of the analogue out? have you checked the list of audio output devices? are you using pulseaudio? | 14:26 |
| olbrook | testing testing this thing on? | 14:27 |
| ne2k | generalfluffles, that question make no sense. are you sure that "Spiral Knights" on the Desktop is in fact a file, and not a directory? | 14:27 |
| ne2k | what happens if you double click on it? what happens if you open desktop in the file browser and look at that? | 14:27 |
| duke | ne2k: yea, it does have HDMI output and pulseaudio. I also suspect some audio routing issue to be the thing. | 14:27 |
| === anders is now known as Guest89549 | ||
| tomreyn | olbrook: please test elsewher ein the future. | 14:28 |
| ne2k | duke, try running alsamixer as it often shows up additional controls like mute/headphone blah that you might not have thought of | 14:28 |
| generalfluffles | ne2k, nothing does happen it only leads to a notification that says there was an error launching the application | 14:28 |
| donofrio | is there a "TheDraw" for ubuntu or libreoffice? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TheDraw | 14:29 |

| generalfluffles | how can i open a java type game that root owns.... | 14:38 |
| JimBuntu | I would suggest you chown the files to yourself | 14:38 |
| generalfluffles | howww | 14:38 |
| maor | EKKO | 14:39 |
| generalfluffles | JimBuntu, how can i do that? | 14:39 |
| leftyfb | maor: can we help you with something? | 14:39 |
| leftyfb | apparently not | 14:39 |
| generalfluffles | leftyfb, do u know how to open a game taht root owns? | 14:40 |
| generalfluffles | or change the permissions | 14:40 |
| zanshin | generalfluffles: If you do a google search for using chown to change ownership, you should find something to help you make the files owned by you and not root | 14:41 |
| leftyfb | generalfluffles: In linux, usually a properly installed application(game) will be owned by root. That shouldn't be a problem. I'm guessing you're trying to play some weird game not installed properly or something | 14:41 |
| leftyfb | generalfluffles: What game? How did you install it? | 14:41 |
| generalfluffles | leftyfb, i did not install it properly | 14:41 |
| leftyfb | ^ | 14:41 |
| generalfluffles | leftyfb, spiral knights i installed it through a bin file | 14:41 |
| leftyfb | gross | 14:42 |
| leftyfb | generalfluffles: and what do you instructions for the game say about running it after it's installed? | 14:42 |
| leftyfb | you/the | 14:42 |
| generalfluffles | leftyfb, like i can play anything else in this demonic os | 14:42 |
| leftyfb | generalfluffles: ok, good luck | 14:42 |
| leftyfb | every other app and game works, but it's the OS's fault of course | 14:43 |
| leftyfb | Not the game which installs via a bin file | 14:43 |
| leftyfb | generalfluffles: read the documentation for the game. Seek support from the game developer/distributer. The OS(Ubuntu) is working fine. | 14:44 |
| generalfluffles | hell yeah it does ;_; | 14:44 |

| Hdphn | hi | 14:56 |
| Hdphn | if I install ubuntu 16.04 LTS | 14:56 |
| Hdphn | is it better or installing 18.04 | 14:56 |
| Hdphn | for later upgrading to 18.04LTSw | 14:56 |
| Hdphn | without any issues | 14:56 |
| JimBuntu | Hdphn, 16.04 is the current LTS, 18.04 is in code freeze I think, but not officially released | 14:57 |
| Hdphn | so.. if 18.04 release | 14:57 |
| Hdphn | can I upgrade from 16.04 | 14:57 |
| Hdphn | or do I need fresh install | 14:57 |
| Hdphn | ? | 14:57 |
| JimBuntu | 18.04 is due to be released around the end of this month, you will be able to upgrade from 16.04 to 18.04 if/when you want to | 14:57 |

Once 18.04 reaches a stable point (bugs chased out not found in beta) a 18.04.1 release will be issued which will coincide with the upgrade tool being able to upgrade 16.04 to 18.04.1. As long as you stick to Ubuntu maintained PPAs and software you will not likely encounter any issues with upgrading | 15:00 |
| pragmaticenigma | that would require a reinstall | 15:00 |
| Hdphn | are you sure | 15:01 |
| Hdphn | or I should wait for 18.04 LTS | 15:01 |
| leftyfb | yes | 15:01 |
| Hdphn | I never waited for any distro :( sadly ubuntu is making me think twice | 15:01 |
| Hdphn | because once I set up my OS | 15:01 |
| lotuspsychje | Hdphn: its your choice what you do | 15:02 |
| Hdphn | I dont want any issues that requires re installation | 15:02 |
| Hdphn | sure its mine but I need your honest advise | 15:02 |
| JimBuntu | Hdphn, you can choose to run with scissors, I don't think anyone will stop you, chances are that you wont even get hurt | 15:02 |
| leftyfb | Hdphn: the upgrade from 16.04 to 18.04 should be fine | 15:02 |
| Hdphn | in archlinux, Its rolling release so I never had to think before downloading the iso. for this one, I am confused. | 15:02 |
| lotuspsychje | Hdphn: if you dont want issues, take the advice to wait till 18.04.1 | 15:02 |
| Hdphn | leftyfb: especially if its unity to gnome | 15:02 |
| Hdphn | I feel worried | 15:02 |
| leftyfb | then wait | 15:02 |
| Hdphn | urgh | 15:03 |
| JimBuntu | wait, Hdphn multi-boot | 15:03 |
| Hdphn | noway | 15:03 |
| Hdphn | aint nobody got time to maintain dual | 15:03 |
| pragmaticenigma | Hdphn, 17.10 current runs the same version of Gnome that is available in 18.04 | 15:03 |
| confluency | Hdphn: nothing is going to change your existing Unity to Gnome, to the best of my knowledge. | 15:03 |
| pragmaticenigma | issues with gnome desktop will be small | 15:03 |
| Hdphn | if I get 17.10 can I go for 18.04 LTS upgrade | 15:03 |
| pragmaticenigma | Hdphn, yes | 15:03 |
| duke | ne2k: http://puu.sh/A0e0B/75c98e8947.png thats what it shows there, the Port dropdown doesnt have any other things in it. And under Configuration I can only choose the profile analog stereo-output. | 15:04 |
| confluency | Oh, I see; you're picking a release to install from scratch now. | 15:04 |
| confluency | Hdphn: it doesn't really matter whether you install 16.04 or 17.10 at this stage; you can upgrade directly to the new LTS from both of them. | 15:05 |
| confluency | OK, it does a bit; it will determine what DE you start off with. | 15:05 |
| confluency | But you can change that. | 15:05 |
| Hdphn | confluency: sure I can | 15:06 |
| Hdphn | but without any issues | 15:06 |
| Hdphn | just like new install of 18.04? | 15:07 |
| Hdphn | if yes, I will go ahead and use 16.04 now | 15:07 |
| Hdphn | please confirm | 15:07 |
| pragmaticenigma | Hdphn, issues occur when you step out of the Ubuntu ecosystem | 15:07 |
| lotuspsychje | Hdphn: you can never be 100% no issues will arise | 15:07 |
| OerHeks | *if* you upgrade, download the iso and make an USB before hitting the upgrade button | 15:07 |
| confluency | Hdphn: nobody can *guarantee* you "no issues". | 15:07 |
| pragmaticenigma | lotuspsychje, not true... user created issues can occur | 15:07 |
| Hdphn | thats what I thought lol | 15:07 |
| lotuspsychje | Hdphn: there is no magic 1 button | 15:07 |
| confluency | Hdphn: my advice is: it's unlikely to make a big difference; pick whichever one you want. | 15:07 |
| Hdphn | LTS should mean stability for long term | 15:08 |
| Hdphn | :P | 15:08 |
| Hdphn | confluency: I see. | 15:08 |
| confluency | Then pick the LTS. | 15:08 |
| lotuspsychje | Hdphn: thats why we advise LTS to LTS upgrade wait until .1 | 15:08 |
| confluency | If you want newer software, pick the non-LTS. | 15:08 |
| bcx | I hit this BT issue https://askubuntu.com/questions/983053, any ideas ? | 15:08 |
| confluency | I use LTS on my work laptop and non-LTS on my personal laptop. I've had problem-free upgrades for as long as I can remember. | 15:09 |
| Hdphn | lotuspsychje: I can wait but I need to use something now | 15:09 |
| leftyfb | Hdphn: boot a live cd | 15:09 |
| confluency | So pick the one which meets your needs better. | 15:09 |
| Hdphn | if there will be no difference between me using 16.04 now and upgrading it to 18.04 lts VS installing 18.04LTS from scratch | 15:10 |
| Hdphn | then its great. | 15:10 |
| Hdphn | because once I set up my OS. I am too busy to re install entire stuff | 15:10 |
| confluency | Nobody can guarantee that there will "be no difference". But I think we all agree that there probably won't be and there is very little risk. | 15:10 |
| Hdphn | if I install ubuntu gnome 16.04 | 15:11 |
| lotuspsychje | Hdphn: even if you upgrade LTS to LTS, you should take backups... | 15:11 |
| pragmaticenigma | Hdphn, again... you will not likely have any issues upgrading from the currently supported releases to 18.04 later. AS LONG AS YOU STAY in the Ubuntu ecosystem. That means not installing 3rd party applications or PPAs. | 15:11 |
| Hdphn | it will be smooth upgrade right | 15:11 |
| confluency | I don't reinstall anything unless I get new hardware. | 15:11 |
| Hdphn | confluency: you were on 14.04? | 15:11 |
| confluency | And nothing bad has happened in a literal decade. | 15:11 |
| Hdphn | 14.04 LTS to 16.04 LTS was a BIG MESS!! | 15:11 |
| confluency | Hdphn: when? At some point, yes. | 15:11 |
| confluency | I don't remember it being a big mess, but YMMV. | 15:12 |
| lotuspsychje | Hdphn: you cant generalize things like that | 15:12 |
| Hdphn | I had experienced it | 15:12 |
| confluency | I would have done that on my work laptop, and I don't recall any major disruptions. | 15:12 |
| Hdphn | :D | 15:12 |
| lotuspsychje | Hdphn: anyway enough if discussing, move to ubuntu support please | 15:12 |
| leftyfb | Hdphn: you've been made aware of your options. Good luck. | 15:13 |
| pragmaticenigma | Hdphn, that's too general and doesn't tell us anything. I upgraded from 14.04 to 16.04 with out any issues. Again, most of the issues I've seen where an upgrade does not go smoothly is because a PPA was added, 3rd party application was installed, or a configuration file was modified and the ugprade tool didn't know what to do with it. | 15:13 |
| Hdphn | leftyfb: so I am going to install 16.04 LTS now. and hope I wouldnt need re installation | 15:13 |
| Hdphn | I dont add PPAs | 15:13 |
| Hdphn | they are insecure | 15:13 |
| pragmaticenigma | Hdphn, if you want a problem free upgrade. Back up your computer BEFORE you perform the upgrade. You can restore it back if something goes wrong | 15:13 |
| Hdphn | you know the only reason I am coming back to ubuntu from archlinux is stability and get my work done without tinkering my OS | 15:14 |
| Hdphn | hopefully upgrade to 18.04 wont ruin it | 15:14 |
| leftyfb | Hdphn: thanks for the insult | 15:14 |
| Hdphn | what insult ? sorry I didnt mean to | 15:14 |

| roshanjha | Hi | 15:23 |
| roshanjha | https://imgur.com/a/fK7jB my ubuntu 16 is giving this issue | 15:23 |
| roshanjha | And its not starting and shutdown | 15:23 |
| tomreyn | roshanjha: which ubuntu release? fully patches / updates? | 15:25 |
| tomreyn | *patcheD | 15:25 |
| ioria | roshanjha, try with nouveau.modeset=0 | 15:25 |
| roshanjha | ioria: sorry is this command ? | 15:26 |
| ioria | roshanjha, you know how to set a kernel boot parameter ? | 15:27 |
| roshanjha | tomreyn: latest ubuntu 16 release | 15:27 |
| roshanjha | ioria: no | 15:27 |
| akik | roshanjha: call it 16.04 or 16.10, not 16 | 15:27 |
| ioria | !nomodeset | 15:27 |
| ubottu | A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 15:27 |
| tomreyn | roshanjha: there is no "ubuntu 16", you probably mean "16.04 LTS" or "16.10"? | 15:27 |
| ioria | roshanjha, you need to diaplay the grub screen and edit the kernel line : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBootParameters | 15:28 |
| ioria | roshanjha, tap Shift after bios ; find the 'linux /boot/vmlinux' line and where you see 'quiet splash' add nouveau.modeset=0; boot with ctrl+x or f10 | 15:32 |
| duke | Hm, think pulseaudio is screwing with the audio a bit, gonna investitage. | 15:32 |
| roshanjha | tomreyn: ok. I will try | 15:32 |
| duke | Meanwhile, I have another issue bugging me with this shitty trekstor wintron 10.1 tablet... the screen never really shuts off completely after some idle time... any idea what stuff I need to edit to make that happen? | 15:33 |
| roshanjha | Also should i go for Ubuntu 17 ? | 15:33 |
| roshanjha | I installed fresh 16 latest release | 15:33 |
| duke | roshanjha: if you are using it on a Desktop then go for 17. On a server I'd still use 16.04. | 15:34 |
| nacc | duke: roshanjha: 17.10, not '17' | 15:35 |
| roshanjha | Yes desktop. Also there is lts coming for Ubuntu 18 in this month. Should I wait for Ubuntu 18 or she i go for 17 for this time | 15:35 |
| ioria | again | 15:35 |
| pragmaticenigma | roshanjha, it is important that you tell us the complete version number. It is VERY important difference between 16.04 and 16.10 | 15:35 |
| ioria | watch this: | 15:35 |
| ioria | !17 | 15:36 |
| pragmaticenigma | fail | 15:36 |
| ioria | !17.10 | 15:36 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 17.10 (Artful Aardvark) is the current release of Ubuntu. Download at http://www.ubuntu.com/download - Release Notes: https://ubottu.com/y/artful | 15:36 |
| dfch | been using bionic for quite some time, getting better and better | 15:36 |
| ioria | roshanjha, see the difference ? | 15:36 |
| pragmaticenigma | dfch, Do you have a support question? | 15:36 |
| dfch | for server still debian :D sorry | 15:36 |
| dfch | pragmaticenigma: my bad, will shut up right away (irc under influence) | 15:37 |
| roshanjha | Ok. I m on mobile and my laptop is not working to check the installed release that's why i am saying primary number like 16-17 | 15:37 |
| duke | dfch: Haha, my work uses Debian on their servers. | 15:38 |
| duke | I myself run Ubuntu on all my servers | 15:38 |
| JimBuntu | roshanjha, `lsb_release -a` isn't working? | 15:38 |
| ioria | roshanjha, spam 'shift' (or esc) right after the bios screen ; you should get the Grub screen: this is the first step | 15:40 |

| generalfluffles | wait let me go to freenode | 16:47 |
| generalfluffles | okay then | 16:47 |
| leftyfb | generalfluffles: | 16:48 |
| leftyfb | sh spiral-install.bin | 16:48 |
| leftyfb | first | 16:48 |
| leftyfb | sudo rm -rf ~/spiral ~/Desktop/Spiral*.desktop | 16:48 |
| leftyfb | then: sh spiral-install.bin | 16:49 |
| generalfluffles | ye i figured that out after you told me about root | 16:49 |
| leftyfb | generalfluffles: that will install it | 16:49 |
| generalfluffles | im not getting why sudo makes a difference though | 16:49 |
| leftyfb | don't use sudo | 16:49 |
| leftyfb | then: sh spiral-install.bin | 16:49 |
| leftyfb | that's it | 16:49 |
| generalfluffles | okay then | 16:50 |
| leftyfb | and just hit enter for any questions it asks | 16:50 |
| leftyfb | then your icon on your desktop will work | 16:50 |
| generalfluffles | leftyfb, root is still the owner | 16:51 |
| leftyfb | them you didn't do as I said above | 16:52 |
| leftyfb | sudo rm -rf ~/spiral ~/Desktop/Spiral*.desktop | 16:52 |
| generalfluffles | yes i did | 16:53 |
| ioria | generalfluffles, ls -l spiral-install.bin | 16:53 |
| leftyfb | is the "file" still there? | 16:53 |
| leftyfb | ioria: it's ok, I got this, it's stupid simple | 16:53 |
| ioria | ok | 16:53 |
| leftyfb | ioria: I just downloaded, installed and ran the game | 16:53 |
| leftyfb | it just sticks everything in ~/spiral and puts an icon on your desktop | 16:54 |
| generalfluffles | okay | 16:54 |
| leftyfb | generalfluffles: ok what? Do the files still exist? | 16:54 |
| generalfluffles | nope | 16:54 |
| leftyfb | generalfluffles: then: sh spiral-install.bin | 16:54 |
| generalfluffles | this is becoming tiresome | 16:55 |
| JimBuntu | generalfluffles, this is actually the game... you find out once you get it running | 16:56 |
| leftyfb | generalfluffles: Tell me about it. It's hard to help someone when all they want to do is complain but not actually rely information when asked | 16:56 |
| leftyfb | rely/relay* | 16:56 |
| generalfluffles | okay | 16:57 |
| generalfluffles | then | 16:57 |
| leftyfb | ok WHAT? | 16:57 |
| generalfluffles | i did sh spiral bla bla | 16:57 |
| generalfluffles | then i go to my desktop | 16:58 |
| generalfluffles | click the file i installed | 16:58 |
| leftyfb | "sh spiral bla bla" isn't a valid command | 16:58 |
| generalfluffles | "sh spiral-install.bin" | 16:58 |
| generalfluffles | is | 16:58 |
| leftyfb | Did you run that as your user or as root or with sudo? | 16:58 |
| generalfluffles | user | 16:58 |
| generalfluffles | im not even using root anymore | 16:59 |
| leftyfb | ok, now the icon on your desktop. Is it just the Spiral Knights purple icon or does it gave a lock on it? | 16:59 |
| generalfluffles | okay i installed it and it isnt owned by root | 16:59 |
| leftyfb | ok | 16:59 |
| leftyfb | now play your game | 17:00 |
| generalfluffles | thats the thing it doesnt have the icon plus everytime i click i get 'There was an error launching the application' notification | 17:00 |
| generalfluffles | meh the game doesnt worth that much effort either way | 17:03 |
| generalfluffles | im using it as an example to prove how simple java games are... | 17:04 |
| generalfluffles | like a test | 17:04 |
| generalfluffles | and im becoming frustrating and annoying so i apologize and im leaving | 17:05 |

| linuxr_ | Hi all...so here I am, still stuck trying to boot a freshly installed ubuntu from my newly-installed SSD drive...all I get is a "no bootable device" found error. WHen I hit ctrl-alt-del, it appears to boot though. I also noticed that on cold boot, the bios quickly lists the available devices, and ssd is missing. After reboot, it's there. Any ideas? | 17:45 |
| nacc | linuxr_: if your bios doesn't list the device ... that's a bios issue, most likely? | 17:47 |
| hk_ | Hi, I have RS485-to-USB converter, my linux can reconize it but i cannot find it in /dev/tty*, thx for help | 17:48 |
| linuxr_ | nacc, probably yes. I have no wonder what I can do about that, though. Maybe someone got an idea? | 17:48 |
| nacc | linuxr_: did you see if there are any bios updates from the vendor? | 17:48 |
| linuxr_ | nacc, seems to be quite a recent bios. There is one upgrade, don't know how to install that without windows though (it's an .exe file) | 17:49 |
| nacc | linuxr_: right, you probably need windows | 17:50 |
| JimBuntu | linuxr_, I would look at changing values in BIOS, maybe turn off quick boot if it's on, enable USB booting (to slow the process down)/etc | 17:51 |
| linuxr_ | JimBuntu, already tried that, there is no "quick boot option", unfortunately | 17:52 |
| nacc | linuxr_: you could also see if others with the same mobo hit a simliar problem | 17:52 |
| linuxr_ | nacc, I found one dude with this problem, he solved it by installing a different SSD drive :/ | 17:52 |

| floogy | Hi, is it possible to upgrade to bionic beta from 16.04.4 LTS? | 19:32 |
| leftyfb | !bionic | floogy | 19:33 |
| ubottu | floogy: Ubuntu 18.04 (Bionic Beaver) will be the 28th release of Ubuntu - Announcement at http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/1518 - Discussion in #ubuntu+1 | 19:33 |
| richardwhiuk | Currently running 14.04 using upstart - moving to 16.04. Currently we've got a service which will emit one of two events. There's then two other services, each of which lists for the event specific to their service before starting. Any recommendation on how to translate this into systemd? | 19:36 |
| xamithan | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SystemdForUpstartUsers | 19:39 |
| ioria | richardwhiuk, ^ that was for you | 19:42 |
| floogy | leftyfb, what do you think how much time it will take to the first poin-release. I want to find out if I try to upgrade to beta or rather to the point-release, because I'll not have the time from next week until June. I think I might be better off with the point release, right? | 19:44 |

| Sari2018 | can anyone help me how do i move or make a shortcut of Application from Unity to DASH? ubuntu 16.04 | 19:50 |
| ioria | Sari2018, from unity to dash ? | 19:51 |
| larry | color test | 19:52 |
| Sari2018 | @Loria - Yes All Application Sits on the Unity Left Bar and I want to move them to DASH(DesktoP) | 19:54 |
| Sari2018 | @Loria Also whenever there is a Third Party Application installed it will have to be search and open each time once closed. | 19:55 |
| ioria | Sari2018, pin it in the launcher | 19:55 |
| ioria | Sari2018, or make a .desktop file (shortcut) on Desktop | 19:56 |
| ioria | Sari2018, you can also drag the app from dash to the launcher directly | 19:58 |

| mibu | well, im trying to set a group i made as the owner of a "fileshare" but it doesnt seem to work. | 20:06 |
| whitebeast | '/boot/grub/i386-pc/normal.mod' not found. i checked a few videos on youtube but none of them seem to work right | 20:06 |
| mibu | i tried with this command: sudo chown -R :elbilftp /media/ftpshare01 . The folder is hosted on a windows server via smb | 20:08 |
| Sari2018 | <ioria> Sari2018, you can also drag the app from dash to the launcher directly ???? No idea how to do it. | 20:09 |

| quick- | whitebeast: https://askubuntu.com/questions/266429/error-file-grub-i386-pc-normal-mod-not-found#286028 Did you try this ? | 20:10 |
| Sari2018 | <loria> Sari2018, or make a .desktop file (shortcut) on Desktop-- No idea | 20:10 |
| nacc | mibu: does the ownership change? | 20:10 |

| nacc | mibu: you need to give more details tahn "it doesn't seem to work" | 20:11 |
| Sari2018 | It is not like Windows | 20:11 |
| mibu | No it doesnt change but gives no error | 20:11 |
| quick- | Sari2018: if you have access to terminal type `touch x.desktop` and it will create the file | 20:11 |
| Sari2018 | Where is the .Desktop File exisit ? | 20:11 |
| Sari2018 | @Quick ok let me try | 20:12 |

| Sari2018 | I tired nothing happen command successful | 20:12 |
| quick- | Sari2018: try ls and you'll see a file | 20:13 |
| mibu | it's only root that can rw on that folder. all other users/groups get permission denied | 20:13 |
| nacc | mibu: how is it mounted? | 20:13 |
| nacc | mibu: and what is the permission on the mountpoint? | 20:13 |
| mibu | via fstab i think, its the firsttime im handing with this stuff so im not quite sure | 20:14 |
| nacc | mibu: no, not what mechanism, what options? | 20:14 |
| Sari2018 | I did ls and I see X.desktop, examples.desktop and others but I do not see them on GUI | 20:15 |
| mibu | cifs, it's a network share | 20:16 |
| Sari2018 | oh I change the Dir to Desktop now I see the Fold on the Desktop I created in TERMINAL | 20:17 |
| whitebeast | quick, it doesnt really apply to me as i am stuck in grub, there is no os on the hardrive and im using a usb boot, ive done it with the all the pieces before. | 20:17 |
| whitebeast | it just dosnt want to now and im not sure why | 20:17 |
| Sari2018 | before I ran the command touch x.desktop on at the root | 20:17 |
| Sari2018 | File created on the desktop and I see it | 20:18 |

| cluelessperson | hey guys, I'm having trouble with my WIFI on my laptop | 20:22 |
| cluelessperson | this Unifi AP is rated for 1300 Mbps, but ubuntu shows a speed of 400 Mbps | 20:22 |
| mibu | nacc: well im just a skid, i hope i get it right this time: \\10.70.107.10\Fes\ftpshare /media/EL-Data cifs username=elbilftp,password=Nfvs8HD4sT89A4,domain=data.local,uid=1000,iocharset=utf8 0 0 | 20:23 |
| xamithan | 1300 is widely unrealistic on consumer wifi | 20:23 |
| xamithan | That is probably rated for 1300 within 1 foot of the AP and only on 5ghz | 20:24 |
| nacc | mibu: yes, that's what i was looking for | 20:24 |
| OerHeks | so "sudo chown -R :elbilftp /media/ftpshare01" is wrong, and should be /media/EL-Data ?? | 20:26 |
| nacc | mibu: --^ | 20:27 |
| mibu | nacc: what i know is that there is a windows server share where the files are. my pc will be uploading stuff there as another user, not root. but only my root user can rwx there and chown command doesnt work | 20:27 |
| OerHeks | sounds like permissions/groups on that windows share need to be editted... | 20:28 |
| === default is now known as Guest33836 | ||
| mibu | nacc: i did a typo and edited th command to the right path. still no success | 20:30 |
| cluelessperson | am I looking for wifi n support? | 20:30 |
| nacc | mibu: i'd check what OerHeks said, and I'd check what the permissions on /media/EL-Data were *before* you mounted it | 20:30 |
| OerHeks | and chown on a windows share, i think it does not work that way with smb | 20:30 |
| nacc | right, i'd be suspicious at best | 20:31 |
| cluelessperson | 04:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Wireless 7265 (rev 59) | 20:31 |
| OerHeks | cluelessperson, and what is your issue exactly? | 20:34 |
| mibu | OerHeks: so the permission problem lies within the windows server? | 20:35 |
| cluelessperson | OerHeks: I get 400Mbps connection, 1300 is expected | 20:35 |
| OerHeks | cluelessperson, sounds good > Max speed for single antenna on AC is around 433 Mbps | 20:36 |
| cluelessperson | OerHeks: well, this 7265 dual band intel card is capable of 800+ | 20:37 |
| goatia | Hi all, Please could someone help, for some reason I lost my main volume control tab, Im new at Studio and still trying to find my way around. System was fine last night, when I start up now it takes longer than usual. I suspect it might have something to do with plugging in a Yamaha Keyboard on USB, not sure, any help and guidence will be appreciated | 20:37 |
| cluelessperson | main volume control tab? | 20:38 |
| cluelessperson | goatia: can you screenshot it to show us? | 20:38 |
| goatia | Yes, top right I had a dropdown that I could control the output volume | 20:39 |
| Julien | Julien | 20:39 |
| cluelessperson | goatia: if you click the volume/speaker symbol? | 20:39 |
| goatia | now I have no control at all | 20:39 |
| goatia | That speaker is missing | 20:40 |
| === Julien is now known as Guest5210 | ||

| leftyfb | nobody will be seeing a distro from 8 years ago | 20:47 |
| leftyfb | seeding* | 20:47 |
| OerHeks | indeed, pure overkill | 20:47 |
| OerHeks | do not trust other torrent sources :-) | 20:49 |
| pankaj | OerHeks: OK. | 20:49 |
| pankaj | OerHeks: I am relieved. At last their is no other option left | 20:49 |
| pankaj | OerHeks: Thanks | 20:49 |
| OerHeks | have fun! | 20:49 |
| cheguacamole | why do people prefer torrents in this situation | 20:51 |
| OerHeks | maybe one would expect old torrents to be alive, not a static oldversions cd-image page | 20:54 |

| qih | Hi, I installed Ubuntu Desktop 64Bit 17.10 yesterday, after using LXDE for a year. All works fine but it seems that I cannot PING anything except the internal Gateway (Modem/Router), yet I have internet connectivity. I am pretty sure I changed nothing that would disable outgoing PING. Any idea? | 21:30 |

| tomreyn | qih: what happens when you do? what's the error message? | 21:37 |
| qih | tomreyn: Nothing, it just hangs as if the required IP address is wrong or deliberately blocking | 21:37 |
| tomreyn | qih: so you ran ping directly against an ip address, not a hostname? | 21:38 |
| qih | I can ping the gateway, and all internal machines, just nothing out | 21:38 |
| qih | Yes, against some local (NZ) DNS servers | 21:38 |
| tomreyn | qih: do you have firewalling configured on your router then? | 21:38 |
| qih | I do, but it remains the same, the *only* thing that I have changed apparently in 196 days is the DNS servers from the ISP to Google, nothing else. | 21:39 |
| tomreyn | qih: maybe your router assigned your desktop computer a different IP address and tus different policies are applied to it now? | 21:39 |
| tomreyn | *thus | 21:39 |
| qih | tomreyn: NFI, I'll check although the Huawei Modem UI and docs are rather obtuse | 21:40 |
| mattfly | is it possible to hibernate ubuntu 18.04? how should i do? | 21:40 |
| tomreyn | qih: since you can ping the gateway fine but not the internet, it looks a lot like the issue is outside of the desktop | 21:41 |
| nacc | !ubuntu+1 | mattfly | 21:41 |
| ubottu | mattfly: Bionic Beaver is the codename for Ubuntu 18.04 - Support only in #ubuntu+1 | 21:41 |
| mattfly | i dont find this channel | 21:42 |
| mattfly | ubuntu+1 ?? | 21:42 |
| mattfly | oh sorry | 21:42 |
| mattfly | thanks | 21:42 |
| tomreyn | qih: yet another suggestion: maybe your desktop has multiple ways to connect to the router, such as ethernet and wireless. and in the past you used a different way thanyou happen to use after the upgrade (again resulting in different routing firewall or policies applying to it now) | 21:43 |
| qih | Good theory, but I only have ETH/NIC | 21:43 |
| qih | OK so now it works, I cna ping company websites and specific IP addresses ... I changed nothing, in fact the connection has seemed a bit off lately. | 21:45 |
| qih | I checked the log, it seems all attacks are being stopped as per the rules, NFI what is going on, thanks for the advice anyway | 21:45 |
| tomreyn | some of the cheaper routers need an occasional restart, but i guess you'd be aware | 21:46 |
| qih | Yeah, we've made a few support calls in the past few weeks for random connection issues, that resolve through switching off the connection and modem. HW failing perhaps? | 21:47 |
| tomreyn | possible. or road works, or anything else. | 21:48 |
| OerHeks | change cable? | 21:48 |
| mibu | yella: do you use any protocol other rhan cifs/smb | 21:48 |
| qih | Is Ubuntu 18.10 going to be much different or just another polished release with all updates? | 21:49 |
| nacc | qih: ... 18.10 hasn't even started yet | 21:50 |
| tomreyn | we do not know. it won't be an LTS release. | 21:50 |
| qih | Er 18.04 | 21:51 |
| qih | K | 21:51 |
| tomreyn | 18.04 will be LTS | 21:51 |
| qih | Ah | 21:51 |
| tomreyn | !ubuntu+1 | 21:51 |
| yella | mibu: I don't. I just need this php script to be able to write to a temp folder on a Storage Spaces box. | 21:51 |
| ubottu | Bionic Beaver is the codename for Ubuntu 18.04 - Support only in #ubuntu+1 | 21:51 |
| OerHeks | no new features, and xorg standard, so not wayland but will be available in the login | 21:52 |
| qih | OK, I'm not really fussed, 17.10 is great | 21:52 |
| OerHeks | err build in minimal install, forgot about that | 21:53 |

| goatia | Is there a way that I can reinstall pusle auio? | 23:26 |
