[00:45] To be more precise, I was already on 18.04 as of last beta. Upgraded from yesterday to today and had the issue === kallesbar_ is now known as kallesbar [05:02] lvrp16: logout and choose wayland at login [05:02] can i set it systemwide via a config file?

[07:37] Yes absolutely [07:37] No luck [07:37] wait what's the ! Is that a typo [07:37] arsdragonfly: ubuntu-desktop works good? [07:38] !nomodeset [07:38] 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 [07:38] Oh a bot command [07:39] I don't think it has anything to do with ubutustudio-desktop [07:41] arsdragonfly: could be, how about other driver versions?

[09:11] > it would help the community if you report this problem [09:11] Great, my question re reporting the two bugs is: which is the appropriate package or component? [09:16] peter-bittner: gnome-shell and/or libinput [09:18] brainwash: Thanks! ... and the Firefox issue? [09:19] peter-bittner: is that issue specific to firefox only? [09:24] Well, Thunderbird's chat window has the same issue, but the GNOME Editor seems to handle two-finger scrolling correctly (though slowly). Some applications work perfectly fine (e.g. Franz multi-chat), so probably an issue with a specific library the Mozilla lads are using? [09:27] peter-bittner: could be [09:55] brainwash: If it's apparently (just) Thunderbird and Firefox would it still be appropriate to report the issue on Launchpad somewhere? If yes, where? [10:08] HI [10:08] hello [10:08] ?? [10:08] ؟؟ [11:16] Hi, folks. A buddy of mine updated from 17.10 (with Wayland, and Xorg having been removed as cleanup) to the latest 18.04 on his laptop, last night, but was faced with "Started GNOME display manager" ...and then nothing, but no prompt. He says that Ctrl+Alt+F1 doesn't work [I'm across the pond from him, so seeing and helping in person isn't going to work]. Getting into recovery and adding bionic-proposed [11:16] to `sources.list` is fine, but getting a network connection to actually update and try installing dependencies that allegedly fix the problem isn't possible. Suggestions on another way to approach this? [11:33] I suppose since I'm running 18.04, this is a question here: My trashcan in gnome isn't working, I'm getting messages that files cant be moved to trash. OOI, what is the setup required for having trash? [11:49] sveinse: maybe check ownership of ~/.local/share/Trash [11:49] other than that, I would test with a second user account [12:04] sveinse: or are you lacking permission to move the files you are trying to trash? (though I believe the "move to trash" option should not be visible if that's the case) at least where I tested just now. [12:05] brainwash: I'm using a second fs mounted on /srv, which this file sits. Where relative to this drive is it attempting to put the trash? [12:06] becuase I'm perhaps thinking that the top-level trash dir on this fs is missing and not permitted to be created [12:14] Has anyone any suggestions re. the no GUI/GNOME failing issue I mentioned earlier, post-upgrade [NVIDIA GPU]? https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2386053 is what I found last night to be most accurate. [12:24] amharris, I have no idea what the problem is. do you know if your buddy can boot a live usb/cd and use "try ubuntu"? maybe it's possible to get a network connection there and you could remote into that session and continue debugging remotely? [12:28] sveinse, can you run this in the root of the mounted volume? sudo mkdir .Trash-$UID && sudo chown $USER:$USER .Trash-$UID [12:29] Andreas__: That's arguably a possibility; but remote debugging aside, do you know how/if--through the use of a live USB/CD--it's possible to update/install packages onto an existing installation on the drive? [12:29] Basically, to use that to access a connection and update what's already installed. After all, bionic-proposed is allegedly all that's necessary. [12:31] Andreas__: He should actually be online soon, at a place where he'll have access to Ethernet. I'm just hoping that an Ethernet driver gets loaded in recovery -> root [12:32] Andreas__: I have. My /home is bind mounted to /srv/home, and /srv is another drive. I've tested with having .Trash on either /srv or on /home, but neither seems to work immediately. I probably have to logout first, so I'll try it again later. [12:33] (or, gnome doesn't support bind mounting and is confused by it) [12:51] amharris, I'm also on a laptop with a nvidia gpu. I did a fresh install again a couple of hour ago, and most things are working as they should. So I'm not sure what the problem is. [12:51] amharris, this might work: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCdRecovery#Update_Failure [12:52] Andreas__: Thanks. Also, being fair, I think my buddy may have forgotten to trigger "enable networking" in recovery. [12:52] Andreas__: Never having had to use that option, I assume it's just a state toggle and you can proceed to the root shell recovery after? [12:53] If so, then this should hopefully all work [12:54] Andreas__: This is what he saw upon the first reboot [it was hanging here]: https://a.uguu.se/M0p3fHma4515.jpg [12:54] Another time, this happened: https://a.uguu.se/2W46dZlpYLr7.jpg [13:02] amharris, if it's gpu related it might be worth a try to test nomodeset when booting. Adding the nomodeset parameter instructs the kernel to not load video drivers and use BIOS modes instead until X is loaded. https://askubuntu.com/a/38834 [13:04] Andreas__: Cheers. Yeah, I've seen that suggestion before, but never had to use it [luckily!] I think we tend to learn most when we break things ...after fixing them, of course. ;-) [13:04] Andreas__: I do first think we'll see what happens by using what's in bionic-proposed. [13:05] After that, then this route; and after that, Live USB/CD. [14:01] Hi. I use ubuntu-mate beta2 and have some issues. [14:02] keyboard preferences -> typing break -> 2 (two) red/green strips (lines) are on the panel instead of only one. [14:03] When I use this option there are 2 indicators instead of 1. [14:03] on system tray (panel) [14:05] When I used brightness applet with default kernel, then on my notebook the backlight did not work untill I have changed the default kernel to my custom kernel from previous LinuxMint installation. [14:07] Now I use 4.14.27-gnu-rt21 kernel and brightness applet on system tray (in Mate) works and I can change a brightness of display. [14:11] 3. I use GoldenDict. And there is an icon of it on the system tray. And when you click on it you should see the popup submenu. But this does not work (an issue). [14:12] Total: There are 3 issues. One of them is because of default linux kernel. [14:28] Was this helpful for you? [14:40] I am waiting your backfeed. [16:43] guys [16:43] why ubuntu bionic is too slow with chrome / [16:43] ?

It works for me. [18:15] its way too complexic [18:16] donfluffles: you already have been told not to troll [18:16] donfluffles: then upgrading to a pre-release version is a bad idea. Just don't do it. [18:16] ... [18:16] why [18:17] donfluffles: saying ubuntu is complex is only your opinion [18:17] because you will get terminals hung up in whatever process, and it's too complex for you to understand, and you come here and whine :-) [18:17] its not reality [18:17] it may have fatal bugs but theyll get fixed once ill upgrade to the final release [18:18] donfluffles: also i just told you its not very recommended yet to upgrade to bionic [18:18] donfluffles: download the daily image and install?
