[00:00] <evil-capybaras-7> not comparable to one another
[00:00] <caltelt> Which is better, bananas or Ferraris?
[00:00] <Bashing-om> purvesh: I run MBR partitioning and do not use a seperate /boot .
[00:01] <caltelt> windows7lover, what are you looking for, a (terminal?) text editor? trolling?
[00:02] <windows7lover> caltelt: i am trying to work out if i should use kubuntu or normal ubuntu
[00:03] <caltelt> if you really are a windows7lover, then I'd say KDE is probably more your style and you might want to go kubuntu
[00:04] <windows7lover> windows 7 is the greatest OS known to man
[00:04] <caltelt> that said, you can install both desktop environments and switch back and forth between then, so not a big deal either way
[00:04] <evil-capybaras-7> ./s
[00:04] <windows7lover> I can?
[00:04] <Bashing-om> RoadRunner: Looks pretty good . now what does ' dpkg -l | grep linux- ' reveal ?
[00:05] <caltelt> windows7lover, https://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/install-kde-kubuntu-on-ubuntu/
[00:05] <caltelt> old article from '06, but still relevant.
[00:08] <RoadRunner> Bashing-om: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/vBh3XzD5zz/ what is that list?
[00:10] <Bashing-om> RoadRunner: While there is no built in way to remove all of your configuration information from your removed packages you can remove all configuration data from every removed package. To purge all removed but not yet purged packages, where The state is rc, the package is removed, but the config files are not removed....with the following command.
[00:11] <Bashing-om> RoadRunner: ' dpkg -l | awk '/^rc/{print $2}' | xargs sudo dpkg -P ' .
[00:24] <RoadRunner> Bashing-om: if I do that, is there any danger of losing configs of my apps that I installed uder those earlier linux kernels?
[00:26] <Bashing-om> RoadRunner: The command only directs to 'rc' .. (r)emoved but (c)onfig files remain .
[00:28] <pijama_boy> Hey guys, updated to 18.04... my gnome desktop has no sidebar / no dock setting ...anyone has an idea what it could be?
[00:29] <pavlos> pijama_boy: Settings | Dock
[00:29] <pijama_boy> there's nothing there unfortunately
[00:30] <slavic> Please explain the "nothing".
[00:30] <pijama_boy> I can get to Setting | Dock but there's no option in the gui
[00:30] <pavlos> pijama_boy: you dont have a Dock (4th down)
[00:30] <abentley> When will we be able to upgrade to bionic beaver via update-manager?
[00:31] <RoadRunner> Bashing-om: could you please explain the whole syntax of that line to me?
[00:32] <slavic> pijama_boy: https://ibb.co/nym7jH not like this?
[00:32] <x75> Hi room, hows everyone doing this evening?
[00:33] <slavic> (meta question: how do I tag someone in my text?
[00:34] <neildugan> when is 18.04 comming
[00:34] <pijama_boy> slavic: that's what I see https://ibb.co/ggcxjH
[00:35] <slavic> pijama_boy, looks like a reason for a bug report.
[00:35] <pavlos> neildugan: it's out
[00:36] <pijama_boy> ouch, do you know how to compile one?
[00:36] <Bashing-om> RoadRunner: dpkg list passes to awk, which pulls out the packages marked 'rc' and passes this list to xargs, which executes the purge with dpkg on all in the final list .
[00:36] <x75> I take my Linux Exam next week! I'm so excited
[00:38] <slavic> pijama_boy, I just did my first one too. You have to use ubuntu-bug executable. You invoke it with the package name (gnome-control-center)
[00:39] <abentley> pavlos: When will it be out in a way that update-manager / do-release-upgrade can see?
[00:40] <pavlos> abentley: that Idk
[00:41] <abentley> IIRC, it used to happen on release day, but I haven't been following the last couple releases closely.
[00:42] <x75> well looks like it's dead in here I'll check back later... Got to start my study sessions.
[00:46] <neildugan> pavlos, I see now, but 'do-release-upgrade' is still saying 'No new release found' do you know why
[00:46] <pavlos> pijama_boy: this may help ... https://askubuntu.com/questions/967590/dock-settings-missing-in-gnome-control-center-after-upgrade-to-ubuntu-17-10
[00:47] <pavlos> neildugan: there were some issues yesterday and release was delayed, I dont know why it does not pick the new release
[00:47] <neildugan> pavlos, ok
[00:48] <tgm4883> neildugan: are you on 16.04?
[00:48] <neildugan> pavlos, I will give it some more time.  No, I am on artful atm.
[00:48] <pavlos> neildugan: give it a week, things will line up
[00:50] <pijama_boy> pavlos: thank you, I'm investigating!
[00:50] <pavlos> pijama_boy: yw
[00:52] <pijama_boy> pavlos: thank you...fixed it, I was missing gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock
[00:54] <de-facto> how do i get completely rid of that amazon "goodie"
[00:54] <RoadRunner> Bashing-om: that list took a while to execute, wonder how much junk got cleaned out.  You have shown some pretty advanced syntax, where can I learn this (other than man)?
[00:55] <pavlos> right click
[00:55] <de-facto> !amazon
[00:55] <de-facto> hmm
[00:55] <pavlos> de-facto: right click, remove from fav
[00:55] <de-facto> i want to delete it
[00:56] <pavlos> de-facto: right click, show details, click, remove
[00:57] <de-facto> tried that several times without effect
[00:57] <de-facto> can i manually delete it somehow? which package is it?
[00:57] <pavlos> de-facto: I clicked remove, asked for my pw and it's gone
[00:58] <de-facto> yeah it tried to remove it, yet its still installed
[00:58] <Bashing-om> RoadRunner: learning bash is a never ending process . Learning is having an application ,, and seeing what it takes to make it happen :)
[00:59] <tgm4883> de-facto: supposedly it's ubuntu-web-launchers
[00:59] <eddyready> does anyone know if Online Accounts sync calendar items to the Clock and Calendar tray?
[00:59] <windows7lover> Why should I use ubuntu instead of xbox one?
[00:59] <pavlos> de-facto: go to software, all, search for amazon, the pkg name is amazon
[00:59] <tgm4883> windows7lover: please stop trolling
[01:00] <windows7lover> tgm4883: what is your top 1 tip for ubuntu 18.04?
[01:00] <neildugan> windows7lover, change your name
[01:00] <tgm4883> windows7lover: do you have a support question?
[01:00] <de-facto> tgm4883, thanks that worked, surprised they still include that given the love they earned for it in the past
[01:00] <windows7lover> yes i did tgm4883
[01:01] <Bashing-om> RoadRunner: Now if you look at 'df' will see a lot of space returned .. and as well a clean ' dpkg -l | grep linux- ' .
[01:01] <windows7lover> why is my right click not working?
[01:01] <windows7lover> I awake my laptop from sleep and right click stops working :(
[01:01] <windows7lover> On my touchpad
[01:01] <de-facto> pavlos, for some reason that gnome/ubuntu software is very unreliable on my system, and it does not even provide the details i am looking for
[01:01] <de-facto> i like dpkg/apt/synaptic
[01:03] <de-facto> interessting detail about "ubuntu-web-launchers": it just contains that amazon awesomeness, nothing else, yet the word amazon does not appear in its name nor description. as if it was hidden on purpose in there. well one would have to grep for amazon then do a reverse search for the files to find that package.... hmm
[01:04] <tgm4883> de-facto: Hanlon's razor
[01:04] <windows7lover> tgm4883: what is the fix?
[01:05] <eddyready> does anyone know if Online Accounts sync calendar items to the Clock and Calendar tray? It doesn't appear to work for me
[01:05] <yeepee> What is the replacement package for ecrypt-utils please?
[01:06] <tgm4883> eddyready: I've heard it does, but it requires using evolution
[01:06] <yeepee> I'm looking for ecrypt-unwrap-passwphrase to recover my data
[01:06] <tgm4883> windows7lover: IDK, that's why I didn't answer. Might help if you stated your hardware though
[01:06] <yeepee> ecrypt-utils has no installable version in 18.04
[01:08] <eddyready> tgm4883: Thanks. I was hoping not to use Evolution :(
[01:09] <tgm4883> eddyready: my understanding is it's just one of the evolution libraries that is required. I didn't look into it though
[01:09] <de-facto> i think its evolution in the background anyhow
[01:10] <zhou> hello
[01:10] <RoadRunner> Bashing-om: looks great :) any other advise to optimize the system?
[01:10] <yeepee> README.txt points to /usr/share/ecrypt-utils that no longer exists in 18.04
[01:10] <eddyready> i see
[01:10] <shpx> hello. I did `sudo do-release-upgrade -d` yesterday, now when it ubuntu boots it just hangs. Booting into recovery mode (kernel 4.15 I think) and doing fsck says there's a dirty bit, then continuing boot it hangs for 50 minutes saying `a start job is running for resolvconf-pull-resolved.service`
[01:12] <d6chung> Hi, I upgraded to Ubuntu 18.04 and now running rake segfaults: ../activerecord-4.2.7.1/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/postgresql_adapter.rb:651: [BUG] Segmentation fault at 0x00000000000000. I tried rebuilding but can't seem to get around the issue. This paritcular app is on ruby 2.3.0.
[01:15] <yeepee> Looks simpler to recover data from 16.04 instead, since ecrypt is there
[01:16] <Bashing-om> RoadRunner: Well, if optimization is the goal, one starts with a minimal build, and install only what you particularly want on your system. In a default install, one can -carefully- disable services that you do not use. *BUT* be aware of what you disable !
[01:17] <RoadRunner> Bashing-om: as far as cleaning out old junk have we gone as far as is reasonable?
[01:18] <RoadRunner> Bashing-om: and what services would you recommend to consider disabling?
[01:18] <de-facto> eddyready, from my personal experience evolution works flawlessly with imapx/smtp/carddav/caldav and it integrates well with the gnome desktop. Then i always are in sync with my Android with DavDroid app
[01:20] <Bashing-om> RoadRunner: Yeah .. mostly, one can clean out the cache ; ' sudo apt clean ' ; and remove orpahned stuff ' sudo apt autoremove ' .
[01:21] <Bashing-om> RoadRunner: Your system. your usecase, I can give no advise on what can be disabled .
[01:24] <RoadRunner> Bashing-om: ok, btw, could you clarify the diff for me btw apt and apt-get?
[01:25] <compdoc> for some reason, when I install 18.04 into a KVM VM and run it, it brings down my network
[01:26] <Bashing-om> RoadRunner: Apt is the new/replacement for apt-get: https://mvogt.wordpress.com/2014/04/04/apt-1-0/ ; http://www.howtogeek.com/234583/simplify-command-line-package-management-with-apt-instead-of-apt-get/ .
[01:38] <RoadRunner> Bashing-om: this is great, thank you for your help :) !
[01:44] <pavlos> de-facto: sudo updatedb;locate amazon | grep share ... forget the icons dir, there are 3 files that you can remove (2 in applications, 1 in web launcher
[01:44] <silentchim> I am running 18.04 on my xps 13 which only has a button for disabling wifi/bt at the same time. Is there an easy command to set to a keyboard shortcut that can toggle bluetooth on/off?
[01:55] <eddyready> de-facto: Thanks. I prefer to use webmail over evolution. It would be nice to get the Calendar tray syncing that is all
[02:02] <de-facto> eddyready, i think you should be able to just do it with the calendar app itself, in the preferences go to calendar then choose add, internet and enter your caldav url in there
[02:02] <de-facto> it will use the evolution libs in the background then
[02:23] <laptop> hello, need help to create windows iso in ubuntu so how do I do it
[02:24] <d6chung> laptop: https://askubuntu.com/a/840797 <-- That is how I did it.
[02:25] <laptop> honestly that is very complicated a more simplified way?
[02:26] <laptop> can it be done from yumi
[02:26] <xamithan> You want to make an iso,  or make a disc,  or a usb ?
[02:27] <xamithan> I thought windows already gave you the iso if you download from their site
[02:27] <laptop> I have the iso
[02:27] <laptop> but I want to install it on a usb from linux
[02:28] <xamithan> https://itsfoss.com/bootable-windows-usb-linux/
[02:28] <xamithan> Uses a fork of the winusb thingy
[02:28] <Graymanstole> Question: My Software Updater is set to notify me of any new version of Ubuntu. I'm currently on 17.10 but when I run update it does not recognize that a new version is available.
[02:28] <laptop> I ried that did not work
[02:28] <laptop> with winusb
[02:28] <xamithan> You tried woeusb ?
[02:29] <laptop> yes
[02:29] <xamithan> Graymanstole: There isn't a new release yet for non-LTS
[02:29] <laptop> everytime I load
[02:29] <laptop> it up
[02:29] <laptop> it says done after I entter in my username
[02:29] <laptop> and does nothing
[02:30] <Graymanstole> Ahh. Thanks xamithan
[02:30] <xamithan> You can switch it in the software sources menu
[02:31] <laptop> so woeusb first format the flash drive to nfts
[02:32] <laptop> it says installation succeeded
[02:32] <laptop> but that cannot be b/c it says it in like 3 seconds
[02:33] <Ezro> Hey everyone
[02:33] <xamithan> Formatting is usually pretty quick
[02:33] <laptop> yes
[02:33] <laptop> but it is not installing it
[02:34] <xamithan> You are opening it as sudo right?  I have not had any problems with it
[02:35] <laptop> from terminal open it?
[02:35] <laptop> I am using the gugi
[02:35] <laptop> gui
[02:35] <Shibe> so i updated to ubuntu 18.04 and my graphics drivers are all messed up
[02:35] <Shibe> I finally got a gui working, but now there's tearing all over (it doesnt seem to be composited)
[02:35] <Shibe> also EGL isnt working
[02:35] <Shibe> i tried launching kmscube and weston and they both errored
[02:36] <Ezro> I just installed the nvidia-396 drivers, but I'm unable to run nvidia-smi (couldn't communicate with NVIDIA driver). When I run Unigine Heaven I'm also only getting 3-10 fps which makes me think I'm not using the video card. Does anyone know how I can switch to my video card instead of my integrated?
[02:45] <pragmaticenigma> xamithan: please make sure you are giving accurate information. Ubuntu 18.04 (LTS) is the next release whether a user is running 16.04 (LTS) or 17.10.
[02:46] <xamithan> Was saying 17.10 is the latest non-LTS release not accurate ?
[02:46] <pragmaticenigma> It is misleading
[02:46] <xamithan> How so
[02:47] <Shibe> is there any way i can reinstall all the libegl, libgl and mesa libraries?
[02:47] <Shibe> my system is seriously messed up
[02:48] <pragmaticenigma> If 17.10 were installed the updater sets itself to offer all releases both LTS and non-LTS. When 18.10 is released and the updater is configured for non-LTS releases, it will offer the update, if it is configured for LTS releases only, it will not offer the update
[02:50] <pragmaticenigma> That is to say, 17.10 will be offered to upgrade to the latest release (18.04) It just won't set the LTS flag in the update tool
[02:51] <xamithan> How am I supposed to know if they are using defaults or not,  I said he could change it in the software sources
[02:51] <xamithan> I get what you are saying though
[02:53] <pragmaticenigma> The best answer for those anxious to get the 18.04 update automatically is to have them wait. It will be offered when it is ready.
[02:57] <eaglgenes101> When can I expect the Bionic Beaver dist upgrade to be available to existing installs
[02:58] <gogeta> eaglgenes101, ummm
[02:58] <imfearless> Next month
[02:58] <imfearless> when Ubuntu 18.04.1 releases
[02:58] <imfearless> Probably end of May, early June.
[02:58] <imfearless> That's what they've slated for a potential release date (and it's usually when their first major update happens, 1.5m)
[02:59] <eaglgenes101> huh
[02:59] <imfearless> ?
[02:59] <pragmaticenigma> 18.04.1 is scheduled for release in July. The update tool will automatically inform you when the update is ready.
[03:00] <eaglgenes101> Alright, well...
[03:00] <pragmaticenigma> eaglgenes101: It is best to wait for the update tool to automatically tell you when it's ready. We don't have an exact date, but it usually coincides with the first rollup release in July.
[03:01] <pragmaticenigma> eaglgenes101: There are ways to force it sooner, we don't recommend it as it can lead to system stability issues.
[03:20] <quint> exit
[03:29] <shpx> I did `sudo do-release-upgrade -d` yesterday, now ubuntu hangs on boot. Booting into recovery mode (kernel 4.15 I think) and doing fsck says there's a dirty bit, then continuing boot after that it hangs for over 50 minutes now saying `a start job is running for resolvconf-pull-resolved.service`

[03:53] <gogeta> laptop, make shure you run it as sudo lol
[03:53] <laptop> how
[03:53] <laptop> to run it as sudo please
[03:53] <evil-capybaras-7> thanks for trying to help LOL
[03:53] <gogeta> laptop, if it did not prompt for your password then open a termnal sudo winusb
[03:54] <laptop> okay did that now what do I type
[03:54] <gogeta> laptop, it should open
[03:54] <gogeta> laptop, see if it works correctly now
[03:55] <laptop> hold on
[03:56] <laptop> why does the gui not work well
[03:56] <gogeta> laptop, your stick may also be cruppted you may wanna reformat it using gparted
[03:56] <laptop> I tried that
[03:57] <gogeta> laptop, then it may be dead
[03:57] <evil-capybaras-7> there's always the nuclear option: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/yourdevicehere
[03:57] <gogeta> laptop, use a diffrent stick
[03:57] <laptop> I tried that too
[03:57] <tgm4883> Using Budgie 18.04, how can I disable password prompt from suspend
[03:57] <laptop> no problem with stick or iso I am sure of that
[03:58] <gogeta> laptop, did you unmount your stick before running winusb
[03:58] <gogeta> laptop, it its mounted it will fail
[03:58] <laptop> yes unmounted it
[03:58] <gogeta> laptop, im gona say dead stick
[03:59] <laptop> nope because it works for ubuntu fine
[03:59] <gogeta> laptop, woeusb works everytime for me
[03:59] <gogeta> laptop, https://github.com/slacka/WoeUSB
[03:59] <gogeta> laptop, see if you get better results
[04:00] <laptop> maybe I installed the wrong verseion
[04:00] <laptop> how do I install in ubuntu
[04:00] <gogeta> laptop, there should be a deb file on that page
[04:00] <gogeta> laptop, download and install thatr
[04:00] <laptop> where is it
[04:01] <gogeta> laptop, https://launchpad.net/~nilarimogard/+archive/ubuntu/webupd8
[04:01] <gogeta> laptop, how to add the ppa
[04:03] <laptop> I did it still not any better
[04:03] <laptop> any other program will accomplish this
[04:03] <gogeta> lapion, did you install woeusb
[04:04] <laptop> yes reinstalled it
[04:04] <gogeta> laptop, try formatting the drive to ntfs
[04:04] <gogeta> and using unetbooting
[04:04] <gogeta> unetbootin
[04:05] <laptop> I did
[04:05] <laptop> and unetbootin does not recognize it
[04:05] <gogeta> laptop, then your iso is bad
[04:05] <gogeta> laptop, one of those tools should work
[04:07] <gogeta> laptop, did you use woeusbgui
[04:07] <laptop> nope

[04:08] <laptop> no it is not dead
[04:08] <gogeta> laptop, thats how they die they stop accepting writes
[04:08] <laptop> no because I use unetbootin and it writes to the stick
[04:09] <laptop> but when it loads up there is a grub failure for windows iso only
[04:09] <laptop> not for linu
[04:09] <laptop> linux
[04:09] <laptop> how do I install it from wmware
[04:10] <gogeta> laptop, ejfosifjois
[04:10] <gogeta> laptop, for gods sakes man
[04:11] <gogeta> laptop, why did you say your where inside a vm
[04:11] <laptop> I am not using virtualbox now
[04:11] <laptop> or I was not using it now I am going to use it
[04:12] <laptop> I was on ubuntu but I have windows 7 installed in virtualbox
[04:12] <gogeta> laptop, slect the iso as the cd drive
[04:12] <laptop> I am going to use that to create this iso
[04:12] <gogeta> easy peasy
[04:12] <gogeta> laptop, be a good test if it aculy loads
[04:12] <laptop> yes but how to get windows 7 in virtualbox to recognize the usb
[04:13] <gogeta> laptop, you need to download the version from virtualbox as it has usb support
[04:13] <gogeta> laptop, then its listed under devices
[04:14] <gogeta> laptop, https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads
[04:16] <KurtKraut> I'm performing sudo do-release-upgrade in two different computers and both are unable to detect the Ubuntu 18.04 for upgrade. Both machines are set to upgrade to any version, not only LTS. Am I missing something?
[04:17] <leftyfb> KurtKraut: d-r-u isn't available just yet. They're still working out some bugs
[04:17] <leftyfb> KurtKraut: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BionicBeaver/ReleaseNotes#Upgrading_from_Ubuntu_16.04_LTS_or_17.10
[04:18] <KurtKraut> leftyfb, oh, now I get it. Thank you very much!
[04:25] <ZaZaQR> jab
[04:28] <Randolf> jib
[04:35] <ZaZaQR> jib
[04:36] <ZaZaQR> how is the new ubuntu release?
[04:39] <Emcy> how long does ubtuntu wait to put new releases on the autoupgrader
[04:39] <Skaface82> how do I go about adding a custom program to the "applications" menu?
[04:39] <ZaZaQR> huh?
[04:39] <Skaface82> or to the side bar
[04:40] <ZaZaQR> you can drag it
[04:40] <ZaZaQR> or right click on it
[04:40] <ZaZaQR> add to favorites
[04:40] <ZaZaQR> got it skaface82?
[04:40] <Skaface82> hold on
[04:41] <Randolf> Oh, it's LTS.
[04:41] <Randolf> I'm going to have to try it.
[04:41] <ZaZaQR> yeah, it just came out yesterday lol
[04:41] <Skaface82> no I cant do it, I want to add a .jar application
[04:42] <Randolf> Is there an easy path for upgrading from 16 to 18?
[04:42] <ZaZaQR> hmmm
[04:42]  * Randolf checks his notes...
[04:42] <Skaface82> unless i make a shell script to run the jar, assuming you can drag a shell script into there
[04:42] <ZaZaQR> yeah do that
[04:42] <Skaface82> hang on ill try
[04:42] <ZaZaQR> sudo apt-get update
[04:42] <ZaZaQR> sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[04:42] <ZaZaQR> ?
[04:42] <Randolf> I see this:  do-release-upgrade
[04:42] <ZaZaQR> oh
[04:43] <Randolf> Hmm, "no new release found."
[04:43] <Randolf> I guess that part of the systems must still be in someone's to-do list somewhere.
[04:43] <ZaZaQR> oh
[04:44] <ZaZaQR> https://linuxconfig.org/how-to-upgrade-to-ubuntu-18-04-lts-bionic-beaver
[04:44] <Randolf> There's not "dist-upgrade" package either.
[04:44] <ZaZaQR> have you tried this?
[04:44] <Skaface82> ZaZaQR: when you say drag, do you mean from the file manager? cause that doesnt work for a shell script either
[04:44] <Randolf> I didn't even know about that.
[04:44]  * Randolf follows that link...
[04:44] <ZaZaQR> yes
[04:44] <Randolf> Site can't be reached.  Hmm.
[04:45] <irwiss> Randolf: as i understand it, lts releases get upgrade offer when a .1 revision is out unless you manually upgrade
[04:45] <Randolf> Oh, now it's working after a few reload attempts.
[04:45] <Randolf> irwiss:  I'm on 16 LTS and interested in trying an upgrade to 18 LTS.
[04:45] <ZaZaQR> skaface82, when you load that program? you see the icon on the left? you can click on it. it shows a add favorites
[04:45] <Randolf> Oh, I probably need to do "apt update" first.
[04:46] <Randolf> Ha ha.
[04:46] <Randolf> apt update && apt upgrade && apt dist-upgrade
[04:46] <ZaZaQR> Randolf, what did you do
[04:46] <Randolf> Apparently.
[04:46] <Skaface82> I see an icon for the java program, but it doesnt show up the add favorites option
[04:46] <ZaZaQR> lol
[04:46] <ZaZaQR> yeah
[04:47] <irwiss> Randolf: you'll need to look into do-release-upgrade flags then, though a word of warning - on a server dhcp didn't pick up ethernet port automatically
[04:47] <Randolf> I'm using static IPs.
[04:47] <Randolf> No DHCP.
[04:47] <Skaface82> hang on, I think ive worked out that I need to create a blah.desktop file in ~/.local/share/applications/
[04:47] <Emcy> does anyone know
[04:48] <irwiss> i mean the entire network stack was offline, if you're remote it might be a problem
[04:48] <irwiss> a basic netplan yaml picks it up though
[04:48] <Randolf> I'm finding that Ubuntu's got a lot of stuff working very well.  For instance, installing Java results in the "java" binary being in the path so it just works.  On NetBSD this wasn't the case -- Java gets put into a separate path and then its bin/ directory needs to be added manually.
[04:49] <Randolf> irwiss:  It's not a problem because it runs under VMware.
[04:50] <Skaface82> ZaZaQR: yeah i created a .desktop file, which then shows in applications, and i can right click that to add to favorites.. added    java -jar dfghsd.jar    as the command
[04:51] <ZaZaQR> good
[04:51] <ZaZaQR> you can also drag the icon on the left... up and down and it'll add as favorites too
[04:51] <Randolf> Hmm, "apt dist-upgrade" doesn't seem to do anything.
[04:56] <tfitts> I just upgraded from 16.04 to 18.04.  I'm trying to setup file or screen sharing and under networks it says "No networks selected for sharing"  I have some VMs on it and had bridge networking running on 16.04
[04:57] <AppleTor> i'm able to get proxychains to work only for specific running process.anyone know how to do it with VPN
[04:57] <AppleTor> ?
[04:57] <Randolf> The "do-release-upgrade" command indicates that there are no newer versions available.  I'm using 16 LTS.
[04:58] <Skaface82> Randolf: I just had that issue upgrading from 17.10, I ended up manually editing sources.list instead
[04:58] <m4t> Randolf: try adding -d
[04:59] <Randolf> It seems to be stuck with -d but maybe it just needs time to do whatever it's doing.
[04:59] <Randolf> Ah, here we go...
[05:00] <Randolf> Too bad it doesn't indicate which specific version it's upgrading to.
[05:13] <Randolf> Well, that was a successful upgrade.
[05:25] <barrin92> in ubuntu 18.04 is there a way to minimize a window by clicking on its dash icon?
[05:29] <superguest> I am in disagreement with unzip(1) manpage. It says that "Regular expressions (wildcards) may be used to match multiple members" for the  '[files(s) ...]' argument
[05:29] <superguest> but I believe it's recognizes  *shell patterns* and not "regular expressions"
[05:29] <superguest> oops.
[05:30] <superguest> wrong channel, again
[05:33] <Nostrira> Hi! Why Ubuntu LTS is based on EOL kernel? 18.04 Will keep 4.15 or upgrade to 4.16 kernel soon ?our
[05:50] <hendrik> Is there a way to tell up to consider the package in 18.04  automatically after a broken update instead of having to override the version manually for several hundred packages?
[05:50] <hendrik> Is there a way to tell apt to consider the package in 18.04  automatically after a broken update instead of having to override the version manually for several hundred packages?
[06:00] <SuperLag> I have installed 18.04 on an Intel NUC. The display is a 32" 4K display. While the font is readable, the quality is not so good. Is there anyting I can do to improve it? https://www.dropbox.com/s/ema6oo4ut073slb/ubie_desktop.png
[06:01] <SuperLag> I've set scaling to 200%. I'm guessing that's part of the problem. I'm just wondering if there's anything I can do to improve the quality.
[06:02] <lotuspsychje> SuperLag: lets see wich driver you have active? sudo lshw -C video
[06:03] <Muthbaaz> Sup
[06:03] <SuperLag> lotuspsychje: i915
[06:03] <lotuspsychje> !support | Muthbaaz is up
[06:05] <lotuspsychje> SuperLag: your system is up to date also?
[06:05] <SuperLag> lotuspsychje: yep
[06:06] <qz1> 18.04 what does dmesg mean: 0.167641] platform MSFT0101:00: failed to claim resource 1: [mem 0xfed40000-0xfed40fff] and 0.167722] acpi MSFT0101:00: platform device creation failed: -16 ?
[06:07] <lotuspsychje> SuperLag: your screen resolution is also set to native one?
[06:07] <SuperLag> lotuspsychje: Yep. 3840x2160.
[06:07] <lotuspsychje> SuperLag: wow a big one :p

[06:08] <ZaZaQR> hey hey
[06:09] <lotuspsychje> SuperLag: you on wayland or xorg?
[06:09] <SuperLag> lotuspsychje: like I said... 32" 4K display. It's a Dell UP3216Q.
[06:10] <SuperLag> lotuspsychje: looks like Wayland. I'm guessing that's the default? I didn't configure anyting there differently. This is a pretty vanilla install.
[06:10] <nostrora> Hello, sorry for double question but my internet have problem sometimes.. :/
[06:10] <lotuspsychje> SuperLag: no, xorg is now default but not sure your scaling will work over xorg..
[06:10] <nostrora> Why Ubuntu LTS have EOL kerrnel ? Ubuntu 18.04 will have Kernel 2.16 soon ?
[06:11] <lotuspsychje> nostrora: what are you talking about?
[06:11] <nostrora> lotuspsychje: Linux version in Ubuntu 18.04. i can see Linux 4.15. but this is EOL kernel
[06:12] <SuperLag> lotuspsychje: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/jcmgC2bz8x/
[06:12] <SuperLag> nostrora: 4.15 is not EOL
[06:12] <nostrora> SuperLag: sure ? i told this because i can read 4.15 [EOL] https://www.kernel.org/
[06:13] <SuperLag> nostrora: I stand corrected.
[06:13] <SuperLag> wow
[06:13] <nostrora> SuperLag: what ?
[06:13] <SuperLag> nostrora: I didn't figure it'd be EOL'd. But I'm out of touch, obviously.
[06:13] <lotuspsychje> nostrora: kernels have point releases...
[06:14] <lotuspsychje> !info linux-image-generic | nostrora
[06:14] <lotuspsychje> !info linux-image-generic bionic | nostrora
[06:14] <nostrora> So it's not a problem Ubuntu LTS don't have an LTS kernel ? and even worse, an EOL kernel ?
[06:15] <lotuspsychje> nostrora: stop it please
[06:15] <nostrora> lotuspsychje: stop what ? i don't understand what do you mean sorry
[06:15] <lotuspsychje> nostrora: the current bionic kernel is not eol
[06:16] <nostrora> lotuspsychje: ok! I didn't understand that. I would have "stopped" sooner otherwise;)
[06:17] <lotuspsychje> nostrora: just make sure your system is up to date, at all times
[06:17] <Silmarilion> Can we already upgrade from 17.10 to 18.04? When I type do-release-upgrade it says that no upgrades could be found
[06:18] <nostrora> Simonious_: "sudo apt update && sudo apt dist-upgrade && sudo apt install update-manager-core && sudo do-release-upgrade" Do the job for me
[06:18] <Silmarilion> ok tnx
[06:18] <nostrora> Silmarilion: But i'm newer with non rolling release distribution. Maybe there is a better thing to do
[06:19] <lotuspsychje> !upgrade | Silmarilion
[06:20] <nostrora> What is your feeling about a swap for home server with nextcloud with 16GB of memory, ZFS 4TB and Ubuntu 18.04 ?
[06:20] <lotuspsychje> SuperLag: not sure what else could be done, other then resolution & scaling, gnome should support it by default
[06:21] <Silmarilion> "Upgrades from 17.10 will not be enabled until a few days after 18.04's release."
[06:21] <Silmarilion> so apparently not yet
[06:21] <SuperLag> lotuspsychje: yeah. It did teh scaling, because native was too small, but the quality got worse when I scaled to 200%.
[06:22] <lotuspsychje> nostrora: check in #ubuntu-server
[06:23] <lotuspsychje> SuperLag: have you tried, setting scaling lower and test out other resolutions?
[06:24] <konv> Hi guys, I installed 18.04 and my system crashes after I ssh to it
[06:24] <konv> Any tips on debugging?
[06:39] <Kali_Yuga> hey i got 18.04. So far I only ran into a few problems. I installed nvidia driver-396 from driver ppa and it works. the only problem I got nvidia prime and I used to be able to log out and back in to switch between intel's and nvidia graphics. Now it won't switch until I reboot my machine. which is really annoying since it always worked with a simple logout. sometimes the nvidia settings manager doesn't
[06:39] <Kali_Yuga> load at all so I have to use a shell script to make the switch... :/
[06:42] <Kali_Yuga> I know it's a driver not an ubuntu issue...
[06:42] <Kali_Yuga> but why the reboot now. what happend to the simple logout option
[06:56] <dfch_> hi #ubuntu dumb dumb question here, is there any way to 'boost' sound above 100% via gui (as in not using pactl or modifying pulse config files)? using gnome3 on 18.04 bionic
[07:07] <ffs> what does it mean if netstat -tupn on a server lists a bunch of xrdp connections?
[07:09] <Skaface82> dfch_: open settings then go to sound and turn on "over amplification"
[07:10] <dfch_> Skaface82: settings -> sound  (output tab) cant see any 'over amplification'
[07:11] <Skaface82> i can see it below the main output volume, above the tabs... however i cant see how to go above 100% even when thats turned on
[07:12] <thinky> hello
[07:12] <Skaface82> i think it would sound crap anyway, because it would boost the sound up to a level where it clips and distorts I imagine
[07:12] <dfch_> Skaface82: https://a.uguu.se/BYlnxelPXYuJ_Screenshotfrom2018-04-2815-11-46.png thats what i see. sorry for uncropped screenshot
[07:13] <thinky> which one is better? upgrade or fresh install for ubuntu 18.04 ?
[07:13] <Skaface82> dfch_: oh yours doesnt have the button.. im at a loss then
[07:13] <dfch_> Skaface82: yup, same here
[07:13] <Skaface82> all I could sugest is using pulse audio volume control
[07:14] <Skaface82> cause i know that can do it
[07:17] <dfch_> Skaface82: pactl? does it have gui?
[07:17] <ducasse> dfch_: 'pavucontrol'
[07:18] <dfch_> ducasse: thanks checking it now
[07:18] <Styil> Yo, what do I do if the Ubuntu installer crashes my graphics card or something consistently
[07:18] <Styil> Can’t install it due to crashes
[07:18] <Styil> Improper drivers probably
[07:19] <Styil> Any way to get a text based installer
[07:19] <dfch_> Skaface82: ducasse: yes working perfectly, thanks
[07:19] <Skaface82> no worries
[07:26] <Xard> for some reason I can't pin "konversation" to dock in 18.04 lts as the dock context menu doesn't have that choice
[07:29] <erle-> I added a PPA, then I removed it from the sources, but the key is still in and I can't delete the key via GUI. Any hints where I can delete the key manually?
[07:29] <erle-> Command line or textfile?
[07:29] <Xard> I had to copy the .desktop file to ~/.local/share/applications/konversation.desktop and when launched from there I can pin it
[07:32] <Miguel2013> can someone guide me step by step how to install a netgear wag511 on ubuntu
[07:33] <sky887> You were dreaming
[07:33] <lotuspsychje> sky887: stop that
[07:33] <sky887> :-)
[07:39] <erle-> Can someone please try whether GPG still finds his keys after 17.10->18.04?
[07:40] <da7niel> so I want to execute a script over SSH (using terminal) which is supposed to open up a window to display some crap. I suppose there's no way to do this using standard SSH? Is there software I can use for this purpose?
[07:40] <ljc> hey is there a way of running `sudo ifup <interface>` and specify a particular SSID+passphrase to attempt to connect to from wpa_supplicant.conf ?
[07:41] <ljc> da7niel: like a GUI window? you can do X11 forwarding by giving the -X option iirc (although haven't done this myself before except for maybe once ages ago)
[07:42] <da7niel> ljc: damn, that worked - thanks!
[07:43] <ljc> da7niel: haha, sweet! :) no worries
[07:43] <thinky> dudes is it better to upgrade or fresh install of new version 18/04?
[07:43] <thinky> which one is recommended?
[07:43] <Skaface82> dude i just upgraded with no problems what-so-ever
[07:44] <thinky> i wonder what will i face with 18.04
[07:44] <thinky> scary or beautiful
[07:44] <ljc> i cant upgrade from 16.04 (or is it 16.10..), due to the cpu bugs from a little while ago
[07:45] <cfhowlett> clean install ljc
[07:45] <cfhowlett> if it's 16.10 you'll need to do EOL updates until you get current
[07:45] <SuperLag> that's odd... I did *2* upgrades from 16.04 tonight, without a hitch.
[07:45] <ducasse> thinky: if you have added any ppas, purge them first if you upgrade (with ppa-purge)
[07:46] <thinky> i will fresh install
[07:46] <thinky> ducasse:  yep i added many ppas
[07:46] <thinky> size increased O.o 1.8gb
[07:47] <thinky> i hope my 50gb partition is enough
[07:47] <ljc> cfhowlett: yep
[07:47] <ljc> SuperLag: it's 16.10
[07:48] <cfhowlett> !eolupdate | ljc
[07:48] <cfhowlett> !eol | ljc
[07:48] <thinky> icons are still amateur :S
[07:49] <ljc> ty
[07:51] <Styil> yo, how do I install ubuntu if the graphics driver keeps crashing on the installation screen?
[07:52] <cfhowlett> !nomodeset | Styil
[07:53] <Styil> ah, that works for the installation utility? should have probably guessed so
[07:53] <Styil> thanks

[08:40] <mancman3> sky why do u fly away
[08:40] <thinky> i tried Startup Disk Creator in ubuntu to create bootable usb key for ubuntu 18.04 iso but it is giving error
[08:41] <jane_booty_doe> Why are mdadm arrays such a pain to restore on a fresh install
[08:41] <thinky> how can i create usb key for ubuntu iso?
[08:41] <EriC^^> thinky: what error?
[08:41] <EriC^^> thinky: use unetbootin
[08:41] <EriC^^> or dd like a boss
[08:41] <mancman3> thinky: try etcher
[08:42] <thinky> what about rufus or universal usb installer?
[08:42] <mancman3> try them then
[08:43] <jane_booty_doe> thinky, easy2boot is my favorite
[08:44] <EriC^^> thinky: dd is the best tool for the job
[08:44] <thinky> never heard dd
[08:45] <thinky> how can i use it?
[08:45] <EriC^^> it's a low level copier, copies blocks
[08:45] <thinky> command line?
[08:45] <EriC^^> thinky: get the name of your usb from 'sudo parted -ls'
[08:45] <EriC^^> /dev/sdb /dev/sdc etc , yes
[08:46] <thinky> bash: /dev/sdb: Permission denied
[08:48] <EriC^^> thinky: so the name is /dev/sdb?
[08:48] <thinky> EriC^^: sorry but i am newbie
[08:48] <thinky> dont have idea
[08:49] <sky887_> music then
[08:49] <thinky> Disk /dev/sdb: 8000MB
[08:49] <thinky> sandisk

[08:50] <EriC^^> that looks like it
[08:50] <EriC^^> thinky: do you know where the ubuntu .iso file is located?
[08:50] <thinky> in Downloads folder
[08:50] <EriC^^> ok cool
[08:51] <EriC^^> thinky: type 'sudo dd if=~/Downloads/ubuntu<hit tab to complete it to .iso>  of=/dev/sdb bs=4M status=progress
[08:51] <EriC^^> sorry nevermind the first single quote there before sudo
[08:51] <Skaface82> weird, my network just stopped working, destination unreachable... so i've plugged in a WLAN adapter and it works
[08:52] <thinky> oh something happening :o
[08:52] <thinky> sudo dd if=~/Downloads/ubuntu<hit tab to complete it to .iso>
[08:52] <thinky> i did this and enter
[08:52] <thinky> something happening now
[08:53] <gareppa> has anyone updated to 18.04 from 16.04.4 successfully?
[08:53] <mancman3> im waiting till atleast 18.04.1
[08:54] <lotuspsychje> gareppa: we advise lts to lts upgrade till june, as mancman3 suggests
[08:54] <cfhowlett> ^^^ +1
[08:54] <EriC^^> thinky: did you also type 'of=/dev/sdb bs=4M status=progress' ?
[08:55] <Miguel2013> should I upgrade the security packages and then upgrade to 18
[08:55] <thinky> not at 1st time but now i did
[08:55] <Miguel2013> or clean install 18
[08:55] <gareppa> i know, i just asked if anyone did it, if he/she encountered any major bug
[08:55] <thinky> it is copying to usb key now
[08:55] <thinky> also now computer is extremely got slower
[08:56] <cfhowlett> as expected.  lots of memory required to make a USB
[08:56] <mancman3> gareppa: i've heard of video lag, screen tearing etc, nothing too major but still... 16.04 runs perfect
[08:56] <gareppa> ok, thanks
[08:56] <EriC^^> thinky: cool, after it's done type 'sync' and wait til you get the prompt back, then you can remove the usb and it should boot and stuff
[08:57] <thinky> thank you EriC^^  ! appreciated
[08:57] <EriC^^> thinky: no problem!
[08:57] <lotuspsychje> gareppa: bus will be there always
[08:57] <lotuspsychje> bugs
[08:57] <thinky>  
[08:57] <thinky> 5.7 mb/s
[08:58] <thinky> very slow copying
[08:58] <mancman3> thinky because it's doing a proper job :)
[08:58] <Sterist> the last 5 or so upgrades this bug has hit me every time. I get to the "do you want to start the upgrade?" page and there's a collapsed "Details" of packages that will be upgraded. I open it, then after closing, all the buttons on the bottom are off screen. is there a simple fix?
[08:58] <thinky> good :p
[08:58] <Sterist> besides restarting the whole thing
[08:59] <EriC^^> thinky: did you put bs=4M ?
[08:59] <EriC^^> i usually get like 80mb/s or so on a hdd
[08:59] <EriC^^> nevermind that didnt make sense on the hdd part :D
[08:59] <thinky> EriC^^: sudo dd if=~/Downloads/ubuntu-18.04-desktop-amd64.iso of=/dev/sdb bs=4M status=progress
[08:59] <EriC^^> but to usb's i do get like 80mb/s or so
[08:59] <EriC^^> yup that's it
[08:59] <ledtc> Q: I this Ubuntu Server and i'm having problem wile running over ssh and ive filled in the default/locale file so their are no blanks. But when i run man i get man: can't set the locale; make sure $LC_* and $LANG are correct
[08:59] <thinky> it was fast at the beginning but now got slower
[09:00] <ledtc> Q: Thou when i run locale from my ssh session on the server i see that the spots i filled in are still blanks, confusing.
[09:00] <thinky> 1921843200 bytes (1.9 GB, 1.8 GiB) copied, 393.492 s, 4.9 MB/s
[09:00] <thinky> i think it is finishing
[09:02] <EriC^^> thinky: cool, dont forget to 'sync' afterwards
[09:02] <thinky> it is stuck
[09:02] <thinky> nothing happening
[09:02] <thinky> O.o
[09:03] <mancman3> Am i the only one still burning to DVD ? lol
[09:03] <thinky> waiting here --> 1921843200 bytes (1.9 GB, 1.8 GiB) copied, 393.492 s, 4.9 MB/s
[09:03] <EriC^^> it looks like it's done copying though
[09:04] <thinky> when i click on usb key it doesnt open it
[09:04] <thinky> cant see copied files
[09:05] <lotuspsychje> Sterist: is the deatils of updates you cant see?
[09:06] <EriC^^> thinky: in the terminal try ctrl+c
[09:06] <ledtc> Q: Thou  if i add LANG=en_US.UTF-8 to my crontab, it works, thou lang is already set thou not wile ssh and in tmux.... help
[09:07] <thinky> EriC^^:  error : https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/5TQVXF7znB/
[09:07] <thinky> unable to access usb key
[09:07] <Sterist> the "Details" is the info related to packages that will be upgraded / removed, but the issue is, after opening that to look at the package list, the entire window seems to be irreversibly grown outside of the display area, and the buttons to actually start the upgrade cannot be reached.
[09:07] <EriC^^> thinky: try 'sync && sudo mount /dev/sdb2 /mnt'
[09:07] <lotuspsychje> Sterist: could you screenshot?
[09:08] <EriC^^> thinky: it should show some partitions in 'sudo parted -ls' under /dev/sdb now
[09:08] <EriC^^> give that a shot
[09:08] <thinky> mount: special device /dev/sdb2 does not exist
[09:08] <Sterist> it's a different machine than I am speaking to you from
[09:08] <mancman3> Sterist: HOLD ALT whist clicking mouse with the window and dragging so that u can see the next option u need to tap
[09:08] <EriC^^> thinky: aha, try 'sudo umount /dev/sdb1'
[09:09] <EriC^^> thinky: then sudo partprobe && sudo parted -ls
[09:09] <thinky> ok
[09:09] <thinky> umount: /dev/sdb1: mountpoint not found
[09:09] <thinky> damn :/
[09:09] <EriC^^> aha try to partprobe then list the partitions again
[09:10] <lotuspsychje> Sterist: got a similar bug on it, but specially for the details window
[09:10] <thinky> Warning: The driver descriptor says the physical block size is 2048 bytes, but Linux says it is 512 bytes.
[09:10] <Sterist> mancman3 I have no issue moving the window around, but, the top will not go off the display area, so the bottom portion is stuck off the bottom of the display.
[09:10] <EriC^^> thinky: yup that's normal
[09:10] <mancman3> Sterist: right click top bar and resize ?
[09:11] <Sterist> not permitted
[09:11] <mancman3> ohhh
[09:11] <Sterist> I used your previous suggestion with another idea of mine and fixed the issue
[09:11] <Sterist> well, workaround
[09:12] <mancman3> Sterist: good
[09:12] <thinky> EriC^^: https://unsee.cc/7cd34419/
[09:12] <Sterist> had to disable "snap to screen edge" that was prohibiting the window from going off the top
[09:12] <mancman3> Sterist: u could also tab and enter and hope LOL
[09:13] <Sterist> yes I've done that in the past, prefer not to cuz the prior process takes a lot of time and.. meh
[09:13] <mancman3> sweet
[09:13] <iodev> so I have a question
[09:13] <iodev> if I do do-release-upgrade -d, then I get 18.04 LTS (not the dev release, right?)
[09:14] <EriC^^> thinky: nope, that doesn't look right
[09:14] <cfhowlett> iodev, as of 18.4.1 yes
[09:14] <EriC^^> iodev: right
[09:14] <thinky> something wrong with my usb key?
[09:14] <EriC^^> maybe, maybe that's why it was so slow
[09:15] <iodev> cfhowlett: I don't want to wait until 18.04.1
[09:15] <EriC^^> thinky: try the sudo dd command again
[09:15] <thinky> ok
[09:15] <EriC^^> thinky: make sure nothing is currently mounted from the usb , mount | grep /dev/sdb
[09:15] <cfhowlett> clean install then, iodev cuz do-release-upgrade won't fire up until the first point release
[09:15] <MonkeyDust> iodev  july 26th ... https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BionicBeaver/ReleaseSchedule
[09:15] <EriC^^> iodev: you can update from now using the -d switch as you said
[09:16] <thinky> nothing is mounted instead of the key
[09:16] <EriC^^> after 18.04.1 you won't need the -d switch
[09:16] <cfhowlett> EriC^^, wait, what?  not .1?
[09:16] <EriC^^> thinky: ok cool
[09:16] <thinky> should i format usb first?
[09:18] <Sterist> I haven't tried yet on my old laptop, is.32bit going to be still available as an upgrade lol I know the ISO is discontinued
[09:19] <EriC^> thinky: no dd copies everything including the partition table and everything else
[09:19] <lotuspsychje> Sterist: lubuntu or xubuntu
[09:19] <EriC^^> cfhowlett: yeah, now he can upgrade but he needs the -d
[09:19] <EriC^^> no?
[09:19] <EriC^^> thinky: no dd copies everything including the partition table and everything else
[09:19] <Sterist> righto. I'll probably go with xfce
[09:19] <thinky> ok
[09:19] <cfhowlett> Sterist, 32bit ubuntu is gone.  I ***THINK*** xubuntu/lubuntu might continue in 32B
[09:19] <thinky> doing sudo dd again
[09:21] <mancman3> cfhowlett: yes lubuntu still does a 32bit
[09:24] <Tegu> well, at least the Ubuntu 18.04 netboot image has a 32-bit version http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/netboot/18.04/
[09:25] <Sterist> then the standard upgrade should still have 32bit too, it is to the same effect
[09:25] <Tegu> from ubuntu.com -> downloads -> alternative downloads
[09:29] <davide136> hey guys, can you please take a look here? https://askubuntu.com/questions/1028884/direct-rendering-disabled-on-ubuntu-headless-server-nvs-290
[09:29] <davide136> i'm lost D:
[09:33] <davide136> anybody?
[09:33] <tomreyn> Sterist: do you actually have hardware you still use which can only do 32-bit?
[09:33] <tomreyn> (or is it just that you had 32-bit installed and would like to do an upgrade)
[09:33] <thinky> bbl
[09:34] <Sterist> yes to both.
[09:34] <tomreyn> very old hardware though, right? must be > 10 years, not?
[09:34] <Sterist> my primary laptop has a $700 SSD in it, so I use my old 32bit laptop for write-intensive tasks to prolong the SSD
[09:35] <Sterist> and no it's from 2010
[09:36] <djamal> why i get on ./main.o -sh: ./main.o: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error
[09:36] <giant-rodent> you cant execute an unlinked object file
[09:36] <davide136> djamal, think you have to compile it first
[09:37] <Tegu> I guess it has either Atom or some Celeron/Pentium, since other CPUs from 2010's probably are 64-bit already
[09:37] <tomreyn> Sterist: i see. had not expectedf that any 32-bit only laptop was produced in the past 10 years.
[09:37] <davide136> can anybody give me some help to enable direct rendering on a ssh server with x11 forwarding?
[09:38] <Tegu> gotta check AMD's CPU line from that era
[09:38] <giant-rodent> atoms were still 32 bit around that time
[09:38] <Sterist> it's a Pentium
[09:38] <djamal> i have intel i3 64 bit
[09:38] <davide136> what model and brand is that laptop? xD
[09:39] <Sterist> ASUS K50iJ I think
[09:39] <djamal> toshiba
[09:39] <tomreyn> https://ark.intel.com/Search/FeatureFilter?productType=processors&InstructionSet=32-bit
[09:40] <Sterist> there's actually a lot of 64bit laptops that were retailed with 32bit windows. I have no idea as to why.
[09:40] <MonkeyDust> Sterist  sudo dmidecode -s system-product-name
[09:40] <tomreyn> Q2'13
[09:40] <Tegu> oh, Intel had 32-bit atoms even in 2013. the rest are some system-on-chip things
[09:41] <davide136> it's an eeepc
[09:41] <giant-rodent> i hate SOCs
[09:41] <Sterist> I don't keep the old laptop handy, can't do that at the moment ;) it's about once a month I pull it out to do some movie / show archiving
[09:41] <davide136> those are the worst laptops ever produced
[09:44] <solsTiCe> hi.I am usig a custom gtk theme (arc-dark) and I jsut noticed that the dock and the status menu are not using my theme color. Is this a bug ? Is there a work-around ot make it work ?
[09:44] <Torpedo_Smash> Hi, I've installed MySQL Workbench on my laptop with Ubuntu 18.04. When I try to connect to localhost I receive this error:
[09:44] <Torpedo_Smash> Your connection attempt failed for user 'root' from your host to server at localhost:3306:
[09:44] <Torpedo_Smash>   Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost'
[09:45] <davide136> anyway in a laptop like that i would to suggest to keep it usable to install ubuntu 12.04 o 11.04, no updates but at least is not slow as hell. Just don't manage bank account with it
[09:46] <giant-rodent> 11.04 ran slower on my old atom than 17.04 did
[09:46] <davide136> Torpedo, did you install it fresh?
[09:46] <giant-rodent> iirc
[09:46] <davide136> giant-rodent, won't believe until i see it xD
[09:47] <Torpedo_Smash> davide136, You mean if I had a fresh installation of Ubuntu?
[09:47] <davide136> 17 was slow as hell even on a lot of i5 i tried
[09:47] <davide136> yes torpedo
[09:47] <davide136> and a fresh install of workbench
[09:47] <tomreyn> Torpedo_Smash: looks like the "root" database user you are trying to authenticate with has a different password set than the one you did supply, or you supplied none while one is required. or you did not supply one when none was needed. or this user (root@localhost) does not exist in mysql.
[09:47] <ducasse> davide136: please don't tell people to install an eol release, that's just bad advice
[09:48] <cfhowlett> horrendous advice
[09:48] <giant-rodent> you could try lubuntu
[09:48] <giant-rodent> lxde is fast
[09:48] <giant-rodent> usually
[09:49] <davide136> well, i think that it depends on what you do with your pc, usually it's more stable to be on old release from my experience...obviously you have to use it considering it
[09:49] <giant-rodent> run anything you want if you arent connected to a network
[09:49] <davide136> lxde is not wasy as unity for people who try ubuntu for the 1st time
[09:49] <giant-rodent> but as soon as you connect you're vulnerable
[09:49] <dacommedian> I am using Kubuntu and apparently the new Version 10.04  is out but a do release updgrade says that no new version is available.
[09:49] <dacommedian> Any help?
[09:49] <giant-rodent> thats why updates are important
[09:50] <MonkeyDust> dacommedian  you mean 18.04
[09:50] <cfhowlett> dacommedian, correct.  in 3 months you can upgrade via that method
[09:50] <ducasse> dacommedian: see the release notes
[09:50] <Torpedo_Smash> tomreyn: how can I create a root user in MySQL?
[09:50] <davide136> yes indeed, but if you are not a business, you will nnot use that pc to manage banks, credit cards etc, i think that you shouldn't care
[09:50] <dacommedian> yes
[09:51] <antjose> Hi, i use xfce as gnome too (soory for mi bad English). Today i upgrade from 17.10 to 18.04 version Ubuntu and i work very good. Do you know any software for adpter TV avermedia A 808 for watching TV in xfce or gnome? thank very much
[09:51] <dacommedian> I am at my parents house updating for them. So there is no way to upgrade only to install fresh.
[09:51] <dacommedian> ?
[09:51] <giant-rodent> home users keep sensitive data on their pcs too
[09:51] <cfhowlett> dacommedian, correct.
[09:53] <ducasse> davide136: if you are connected to the internet you should not run an eol release, and anyway we do not advice people to do so in this channel.
[09:54] <robburke00> Heya. Can anyone tell me to what the shortcut "Super+F10" is bound to? I accidentally deleted that one and consider reassigning it to its original function
[09:58] <davide136> well if it's a rule i'll stick to it, indeed if you are in this channel is possible that you use internet xD
[09:59] <davide136> anyway if anybody is able to help me, it would be appreciated: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1028884/direct-rendering-disabled-on-ubuntu-headless-server-nvs-290
[09:59] <maxcell_> I have screen tearing on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. Nvidia prop. drivers. Gtx 970 desktop. { ForceFullCompositionPipeline = On } didn't work
[09:59] <MonkeyDust> robburke00  activates the menu on top https://help.ubuntu.com/stable/ubuntu-help/keyboard-nav.html.en
[09:59] <maxcell_> somebody is having tearing issues as well/
[09:59] <davide136> nvidia-settings works?
[09:59] <maxcell_> works
[09:59] <davide136> tried vsync?
[10:00] <maxcell_> already enabled by default
[10:00] <davide136> try to force it on everything
[10:01] <maxcell_> https://i.imgur.com/Gj5Sosa.jpg davide136
[10:01] <maxcell_> the desktop tearing has stop but, when i open a youtube video it still very bad
[10:01] <davide136> i won't be of any help then D:
[10:02] <maxcell_> davide136: no problem dude thanks for trying
[10:02] <davide136> maybe disable igpu if present
[10:02] <maxcell_> igpu/
[10:02] <davide136> *enabled
[10:02] <maxcell_> whats that
[10:02] <davide136> intel hd graphic
[10:02] <davide136> the one integrated in cpu
[10:02] <davide136> maybe it conflicts :/
[10:02] <maxcell_> i'm on desktop i think the igpu aren't working at all at this time
[10:03] <maxcell_> how do you disable it/
[10:03] <davide136> if you want to give it a try you have to check the bios...what brand is your mobo
[10:03] <davide136> ?
[10:03] <maxcell_> oh ok
[10:04] <maxcell_> i know where it is
[10:04] <tomreyn> antjose: this device is very old, and always had proprietary parts, making it difficult to support on linux. it might be possible (but rather unlikely) to find a patched driver which still works with current kernels if you know the exact device id (lsusb, lspci -nn)
[10:05] <maxcell_> the strange thing is that this Force Full Composition Pipeline always worked for me
[10:05] <maxcell_> in every distro i've tested
[10:05] <maxcell_> including ubuntu 17.10
[10:05] <davide136> i surrend xD
[10:06] <maxcell_> :((
[10:06] <maxcell_> i will need to install another distro
[10:07] <maxcell_> thats sad
[10:08] <davide136> you tryin the technique where you look sad and start to go away but slowly so that people stop you to help you? xD
[10:08] <cfhowlett> :)
[10:09] <maxcell_> hahahaha
[10:09] <maxcell_> today i have uninstalled windows from my main SSD
[10:10] <maxcell_> and i chose ubuntu
[10:10] <maxcell_> but i can't use a main system that doesn't work on my hardware as it supose to i mean, i can't watch youtube videos without tearing so...
[10:11] <cfhowlett> and did you previous ubuntu work maxcell_ ?
[10:11] <maxcell_> yes, 17.10 and previous always worked very well on my nvidia, no tearing at all after the "ForceFullCompositionPipeline" command
[10:12] <lotuspsychje> maxcell_: on xorg or wayland?
[10:12] <maxcell_> xorg
[10:12] <maxcell_> always
[10:12] <Skaface82> i ran debian for years as a desktop machine, but now that ive tried ubuntu recently I dont think ill go back... its so user friendly to configure for desktop use
[10:12] <cfhowlett> maxcell_, 1.  install and use LTS only unless you have a VERY valid reason not to.  2. test 16.04
[10:12] <maxcell_> i'm on 18.04
[10:13] <maxcell_> i don't wanna use the 16.04 i wanna be up to date
[10:13] <cfhowlett> which JUST came out and WILL have bugs discovered over the next few months.
[10:13] <cfhowlett> 16.04 is LTS on supported.  use it until 18.4.1 releases.  my policy for sanity.  YMMV
[10:14] <maxcell_> i wonder if it has something to do with KDE because i'm using Kubuntu...
[10:14] <cfhowlett> doubtful
[10:14] <maxcell_> hmm
[10:16] <maxcell_> ok thanks everyone for the help
[10:16] <tomreyn> with this complex integration of two gpu's i'd stick to 16.04 for now, too
[10:16] <Eightynine> How can I get rid of tearing? TearFree?
[10:16] <maxcell_> tomreyn: its only 1 gpu, its a desktop machine
[10:17] <tomreyn> maxcell_: did you not say nvidia and intel?
[10:17] <maxcell_> tomreyn: no no
[10:17] <tomreyn> oh sorry then
[10:17] <maxcell_> every intel processor has its own gpu tho
[10:18] <tomreyn> right.
[10:18] <maxcell_> but i don't think it's working right now since the nvidia driver are running
[10:18] <maxcell_> is running
[10:18] <tomreyn> well, not every, but most nowadays.
[10:18] <lotuspsychje> maxcell_: have you tested other drivers yet?
[10:18] <robburke00> Thx MonkeyDust ! I thought this function is no longer available since 18.04 (that I use) has no menu bar any more
[10:18] <tomreyn> maxcell_: okay so you have two.
[10:19] <maxcell_> i didn't tested any other drivers, i install the driver from the X application made by ubuntu
[10:19] <maxcell_> and the only choice was 390
[10:19] <Kon-> maxcell_: I just installed Kubuntu 18.04 and get no tearing with Full Compisition Pipeline on
[10:19] <maxcell_> Kon-: whats your card
[10:19] <lotuspsychje> maxcell_: doublecheck with: ubuntu-drivers list
[10:19] <Kon-> GT 1030
[10:20] <lotuspsychje> maxcell_: also test your driver from wayland please
[10:20] <Kon-> maxcell_: There are some other options you can try
[10:20] <maxcell_> lotuspsychje: it return nvidia-driver-390
[10:20] <Kon-> lotuspsychje: Wayland doesn't work on Nvidia in KDE
[10:20] <MonkeyDust> lotuspsychje
[10:21] <x4i> I have an Ubunti partition on my Macbook Air , but my OSX partition is not bootable. How do I mount my OSX partition in read-write mode?
[10:21] <maxcell_> lotuspsychje: wayland always work bad on my system and 18.04 doesn't have wayland
[10:21] <maxcell_> Kon-: like what
[10:21] <cfhowlett> !mac | x4i
[10:21] <lotuspsychje> MonkeyDust: :p

[10:22] <eddyready> Just wondering if anyone else with a laptop running integrated intel graphics and don't suffer from screen tear?

[10:23] <cfhowlett> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/hfsplus x4i
[10:23] <maxcell_> eddyready: i found it for notebooks while i was seaching
[10:24] <eddyready> maxcell_: that appears to be specific to Nvidia?
[10:24] <maxcell_> eddyready: y
[10:24] <maxcell_> eddyready: oh sorry
[10:24] <eddyready> maxcell_: I don't have an nvidia card
[10:25] <maxcell_> eddyready: i didn't know igpu soffers from tearing as well
[10:25] <BluesKaj> Howdy folks
[10:25] <Kon-> maxcell_: The video you linked doesn't tear for me
[10:25] <eddyready> maxcell_: wasn't tearing on 16.04 but it does on 18.04
[10:25] <maxcell_> Kon-: amazing.. its tearing for me hehe
[10:25] <maxcell_> Kon-: did you use firefox/
[10:25] <Kon-> It's a bit jittery but I suspect that's the video encoding itself
[10:25] <Kon-> Yes
[10:26] <maxcell_> yeah i have tearing

[10:29] <titou> i'm using wayland but it's the same with xorg..
[10:29] <Kon-> maxcell_: Did you try some of these other solutions involving your xorg.conf? https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/KDE#Screen_tearing_with_Nvidia
[10:29] <titou> this is an ASUS touchpad
[10:29] <maxcell_> that arch solution is always the first thing i try and always worked for me
[10:30] <maxcell_> but not on 18.04, since i last try on beta
[10:32] <maxcell_> Kon-: thats exactly what i did, didn't work so, i try typing manually the pipeline command on terminal but also, doesn't work. nvidia-settings --assign CurrentMetaMode="HDMI-0:1920x1080_60 +0+0 { ForceFullCompositionPipeline = On }"
[10:33] <maxcell_> didn't*
[10:37] <turnupforubuntu> Turn up for what?
[10:38] <turnupforubuntu> A fresh install from 16.04 to 18.04 has made a noticeable difference to  my lappy's temperature :)
[10:38] <turnupforubuntu> It was very hot underneath and the fan was spinning up more.. How do I diagnose such issues in the future?
[10:39] <MaximB> Hello, I've installed the latest ubuntu, and gnome shell takes about 100% cpu (got 4 cores i5), is it normal?

[10:46] <bembel> Hello, I'm looking for some help partitioning an SSD + HDD duo before a fresh install...
[10:47] <cfhowlett> details? bembel ?
[10:47] <EriC^> bembel: what exactly are you trying to do?
[10:51] <djamal> cannot execute binary file exec format error c++
[10:53] <Zteam> Hi all! I did a fresh installation of Ubuntu 18.04 yesterday, and most things seems to be working well, however I have to raise my concern a liittle bit here: as soon as I connected my HDTV, to the computer, GDM shows up at the at my HD-tv instead of my computer monitor (bios and everything else, is on my computer monitor just as it should be) why do you feel like you need to change the order of my monitors?, I had to follow this, to make
[10:53] <Zteam> it usable again: https://ask.fedoraproject.org/en/question/104622/how-to-fix-fedora-25-41010-login-screen-on-wrong-monitor/
[10:53] <bembel> I want to install / on entire SSD, home on entire HDD.
[10:53] <bembel> Can/sould I use LVM?
[10:53] <Zteam> I think a new user coming to ubuntu having to work around issues like these will put them of quite quickly :-(
[10:53] <outoftime> bembel: I saw usage for comilation of wine staging
[10:55] <outoftime> Help: I have installed xserver-xorg-legacy in Ubuntu 16.04 and screen resolution is not recognized any more. What is the default X package I have accidently replaced?
[10:56] <tomreyn> Zteam: that's the kind of (non critical, since things at least work in general) issues which are more likely going to be fixed in a point release.
[10:57] <tomreyn> that's if there are qualified bug reports on them
[10:57] <absentabyss> If I can't a package in gnome-software after release upgrade, does that mean I have to wait until they put it up, or should it already be up if it was in previous versions?
[10:58] <absentabyss> the program is SciDaViS
[10:58] <Zteam> tomreyn, well, there should be, because the fix isn't very user-friendly at all
[10:58] <outoftime> What is the default `xserver-xorg-*` package for ubuntu 16.04?
[10:59] <tomreyn> outoftime: xserver-xorg (which then depends on xserver-xorg-core)
[11:00] <outoftime> tomreyn: I have installed `xserver-xorg-legacy` and I want to revent changes
[11:00] <EriC^> bembel: you don't need lvm to do that
[11:00] <tomreyn> Zteam: i would recommend sticking to ubuntu 16.04 for now and upgrade to 18.04 once upgrades are supported.
[11:00] <outoftime> tomreyn: *revert
[11:02] <Zteam> tomreyn, well, to late for that now, i just reinstalled with Ubuntu 18.04, also I was able to fix that issue by myself, I just wanted to point it out, because the fix does recquire some terminal knowledge
[11:03] <tomreyn> outoftime: i would think tyou need to (don't blame me if you end up without X): switch to a text console (ctrl-alt-f1), then login and do: sudo apt update; sudo apt --purge remove xserver-xorg-legacy; sudo apt install xserver-xorg; sudo apt --purge autoremove
[11:03] <outoftime> tomreyn: http://termbin.com/bf0w
[11:04] <outoftime> tomreyn: allready in console, using `screen` and `irssi`
[11:04] <Zteam> does anyone here know a terminal command that can tell me which refresh rate my monitors is using?, I belivee xrandr does it, but I don't get how to read the output from it
[11:05] <tomreyn> Zteam: you are welcome to report bugs using "ubuntu-bug"
[11:05] <Zteam> yup, I'm actually consider doing that, too :-)
[11:06] <outoftime> Zteam: do not do this. Use EDID from your monitor
[11:06] <crimson_king> Hey, is UFW (firewall) still maintained?
[11:06] <tomreyn> outoftime:lookks like you need to explicitly remove / purge xserver-xorg-core, too
[11:06] <bembel> I plan to install ubuntu MATE 18.04 do you know if the SSD is automatically set up regarding TRIM and protective options (i'n new to SSDs)?
[11:06] <cfhowlett> crimson_king, it is.  not active by default though
[11:06] <cfhowlett> !ufw | crimson_king
[11:07] <crimson_king> cfhowlett, cool, thanks.
[11:07] <cfhowlett> happy2help!
[11:08] <Zteam> outoftime, the thing is, I have some weird issue, I once set the refresh rate on my TV to 60 hz, after a little while I saw that it was changed to 23.98 hz. so all movies I try to play, is looking like crap and I don't why it keeps, changing it
[11:09] <kostkon> Zteam, 23Hz? what kind of monitor is it
[11:09] <Zteam> it used to work great before, but now my 55" 4K TV, looks like crap because the refresh rate is being changed
[11:10] <tomreyn> bembel: it is by default (the very ubuntu blend / desktop environment you choose should not matter for this), but i'd recommend double checking this if you have multiple virtual storage device layers, such as dm-crypt and lvm involved.
[11:11] <bembel> thanks
[11:11] <Zteam> kostkon, it a LG 55uj670V so it support 60 hz, but Ubuntu keeps chaning that value for me (can also be Nvidias driver)
[11:12] <kostkon> Zteam, how do you know it has been set to 23Hz
[11:13] <Zteam> kostkon, because ubuntu changes the vaule, in the screen utility after a while
[11:14] <Zteam> kostkon, changing the vaule back makes the video playback much smoother again
[11:14] <djamal> make[1]: wgtpkg-pack: Command not found
[11:14] <outoftime> tomreyn: thatk you for help, looks like it's fixed.
[11:14] <tomreyn> outoftime: congrats ;-)
[11:18] <outoftime> tomreyn: do you know how to start app in separate X session?
[11:19] <tomreyn> outoftime: DISPLAY=:1 nameofapp
[11:19] <outoftime> tomreyn: trying to start game via `wine` in new session to figure out how it infuence performance
[11:19] <tomreyn> outoftime: that's for a different X display, not session, though. i'm not sure this is what you want.
[11:20] <titou> since the 18.04 update when I press my touchscreen it "double clicks" (for instance it opens 2 different gnome-terminal)
[11:21] <titou> when I check the libinput event I only get the following event for one touch: "TOUCH_DOWN, TOUCH_FRAME, TOUCH_UP, TOUCH_FRAME"...
[11:21] <titou> I don't understand where could be the problem: gnome? wayland?
[11:22] <brainwash> titou: tried in the xorg session?
[11:22] <titou> with the xorg session I already had this bug with the version 17 of ubuntu and it's still the same
[11:23] <titou> it only worked under xwayland with version 17 of ubuntu
[11:23] <brainwash> so, it's possible that a bug report exists for this issue
[11:23] <brainwash> on launchpad
[11:23] <titou> it's a really boring but :(
[11:23] <w0lf> Kubuntu is much much better and fast then mint linux
[11:23] <titou> bug*
[11:23] <w0lf> why people are crazy about Mint
[11:24] <cfhowlett> w0lf, not our issue as mint is not supported here
[11:24] <w0lf> cfhowlett, I know
[11:24] <w0lf> cfhowlett, just saying
[11:24] <crimson_king> w0lf, it's because this is a support channel, the #ubuntu-offtopic would be the right place to talk about that
[11:25] <w0lf> crimson_king, ok sir
[11:28] <titou> brainwash: I didn't found anything about that
[11:29] <titou> and I don't find the link to add a bug report :(
[11:30] <brainwash> titou: reverse of your problem bug 1762536
[11:30] <brainwash> titou: I suggest following the instructions in the comments in case you want to file a new report
[11:31] <titou> brainwash: it's not exactly that.. I just press once on the screen and it simulates to simple click (then open twice a program for instance)
[11:31] <titou> (and it's touchscreen not touchpad :)
[11:32] <brainwash> both are input devices, right?
[11:32] <laptop> how do I load up from a windows iso
[11:33] <titou> brainwash: for sure but it's not managed by the same part of the gtk code
[11:34] <brainwash> titou: well, then file a report against gnome-shell
[11:34] <titou> yes, thank you !
[11:36] <brainwash> titou: found something bug 1765356
[11:37] <titou> yes, that's exactly my problem
[11:43] <laptop> how do I load a windows usb
[11:43] <laptop> windows iso from ubuntu
[11:44] <EriC^^> laptop: uefi pc?
[11:44] <laptop> yes
[11:44] <EriC^^> laptop: make a fat32 partition on the usb and copy the iso contents there
[11:44] <EriC^^> assuming it's windows 8+
[11:45] <laptop> well it is not booting up from iso on usb. There is always some grub error
[11:45] <laptop> is it possible to call a command from a grub menu that boots up the iso file
[11:46] <laptop> for windows 7
[11:46] <cfhowlett> theoretically ... yes
[11:47] <laptop> how
[11:47] <cfhowlett> laptop, you're trying to install windows?
[11:47] <ab47c> Hello! I recently went through the guide on the Ubuntu site for setting up SSH key logins, which was rather easy thanks to it being well written :) I've been trying to configure some other OpenSSH options though...is it possible to lock down an account so that they can use sftp to download files, but not ssh in and use a shell account?
[11:47] <laptop> yes correct
[11:47] <cfhowlett> then you need to edit your hardware to boot from the USB
[11:48] <laptop> okay what do I need to do in grub
[11:48] <cfhowlett> NOT grub
[11:48] <laptop> what I wnat to do is boot the iso from grub on my windows hd and then install it to another partition that is fat32
[11:49] <cfhowlett> reboot --- hit (esc) usually --- go to setup.  set the USB as the first boot device
[11:49] <EriC^> laptop: that would only make sense if you didnt want to use a usb
[11:52] <laptop> yes but I cannot use a usb for some reason
[11:52] <EriC^^> laptop: if you make a fat32 on a usb, it should boot the windows installer straight away, then you can install windows, i dont think it installs to fat32 though, only ntfs
[11:52] <EriC^^> laptop: how did you make the usb you tried?
[11:52] <laptop> I tried winusb and woeusb
[11:52] <EriC^^> those are outdated pos
[11:52] <laptop> I tried to formatting to fat32 and nfs
[11:52] <EriC^^> by pos i mean pretty old software ;)
[11:53] <EriC^^> *cough* not
[11:53] <EriC^^> laptop: make a fat32 on the usb, mount the iso, and copy the contents to the fat32, there should be a /efi/ dir there, and it'll handle the booting, if you restart and get grub you didnt boot the usb from the bios
[11:54] <cfhowlett> laptop, https://tutorials.ubuntu.com/tutorial/tutorial-create-a-usb-stick-on-windows#0

[11:56] <maret> hi I am trying to create simple bash function which takes an argument (text) and insert it into the file. My question is how to pass function parameter to sed ? Right now I am using    sed -i '1s/^/\$1 \n/' ~/file.md, but this prints $1 litterally
[11:57] <EDinNY> sed -e, maret?
[11:58] <maret> EDinNY, I am not sure. my problem is that i wont to write addNote 'Some note'  and Iam refering to it by using $1 in my bash function. Problem is instead of  'Some Note' $1 is added to file
[11:59] <EDinNY> maret: you will get more answers in #bash
[12:00] <EriC^^> maret: sed -e @s@$1@....@
[12:00] <EriC^^> basically use @ instead of '
[12:00] <ioria> or "1s/^/$var \n/"   file
[12:00] <EriC^^> oh wait i think it's sed -e 's@$1@..@'
[12:00] <EriC^^> so use @ instead of /
[12:01] <EriC^^> maret: ^

[12:19] <thinky> Markdown1 i deleted ubuntu partitions in windows to clean install
[12:20] <thinky> Markdown earlier i was using dual boot with win10+ubuntu 16.04
[12:20] <Markdown1_> you mean during Ubuntu installation?
[12:20] <thinky> Now i tried to install 18.04
[12:20] <Markdown1_> thinky so which system is working now?
[12:21] <thinky> Markdown windows suppose to work but i can not boot
[12:21] <djamal> make[1]: wgtpkg-pack: Command not found
[12:21] <thinky> I tried to try ubuntu without installing from usb key but it doesnt boot too
[12:22] <thinky> Now i cant open anything
[12:22] <Markdown1_> thinky hm do you still have that Live USB/CD that you used to install?
[12:22] <thinky> Yes i have but i dont know why it doesnt work
[12:22] <rdias002> Hello?
[12:22] <Markdown1_> it may have corrupted as well?
[12:22] <thinky> I have ubuntu 18.04 inside usb key
[12:23] <Markdown1_> !hello | rdias002
[12:23] <Markdown1_> oh this was removed
[12:23] <thinky> I downloaded iso and created bootable key with Universal Usb pendrive
[12:23] <rdias002> This is my first time and im having trouble with my system volume. A friend suggested me here.
[12:24] <Markdown1_> thinky what happens when you try to boot from your USB stick?
[12:24] <crimson_king> thinky, install 16.04 where you tried to install 18.04, without touching Windows partitions. That will give you a working system, then you try 18.04.
[12:24] <Markdown1_> *happened
[12:24] <johanhedin> what are the steps to load pdo_sqlite in PHP Version 7.1.15-0ubuntu0.17.10.1
[12:24] <johanhedin> ?
[12:24] <thinky> How can i boot windows now?
[12:24] <Markdown1_> !ask | rdias002
[12:25] <thinky> Please help
[12:25] <thinky> Or how can i rebuild grub?
[12:25] <crimson_king> thinky, and use Gnome Disks to write the ISO. That program you used is not a good idea. It causes problems.
[12:25] <Markdown1_> thinky I cannot help you if you do not answer...
[12:25] <EriC^^> thinky: you said earlier you deleted ubuntu from windows, after that what happened?
[12:26] <EriC^^> thinky: ah i guess what you removed grub and now you get a grub rescue> ?
[12:26] <thinky> Eric i was trusting usb key that i created ubuntu 18.04
[12:26] <anibic> How to upgrade from 17.10 to 18.04 ?
[12:26] <EriC^^> yeah
[12:26] <EriC^^> anibic: sudo do-release-upgrade -d
[12:26] <Markdown1_> EriC^^ I think he said he had both Windows and Ubuntu dual boot, then he tried to upgrade from 16.04 to 18.04
[12:26] <rdias002> Sure! So here goes. I recently installed Ubuntu 18.04. I then realised that my systems volume is really very low,
[12:27] <EriC^^> thinky: to get windows back right now you need to select when the pc boots the boot options menu, and choose windows from the uefi list
[12:27] <thinky> But it is giving error now: (initramsfs) mount: mounting /dev/loop0 on //filesystem.squashfs failed
[12:27] <anibic> my software updater shows system upto date
[12:27] <thinky> No such drive
[12:27] <EriC^^> thinky: that error looks like a bad usb, did you try a different usb yet?
[12:27] <_war10ck_> anibic: Check dist-upgrade, I think it is sudo apt dist-upgrade
[12:27] <lotuspsychje> !sound | rdias002
[12:27] <thinky> Eric grub was showing boot option but now it no longer exists
[12:28] <_war10ck_> anibic: Better read before upgrading
[12:28] <Markdown1_> thinky also always use "unetbootin" or rufus to make live USB.
[12:28] <thinky> Damn :/
[12:28] <EriC^^> thinky: yeah when you removed ubuntu partitions you removed the grub files
[12:28] <thinky> Universal usb creator was working well in previous versions
[12:28] <Markdown1_> thinky I think you need a Live USB.
[12:28] <EriC^^> thinky: if you want windows right now til you fix stuff then you have to choose windows from the pc's uefi list
[12:28] <thinky> Now how can i open windows?
[12:28] <Markdown1_> thinky use some other computer to make a Live USB again.
[12:29] <hosein> Hi,  my package manager's got problems after I upgraded to 18.04 : https://paste.unixcorn.org/?b74cd4eee39bc5fb#gIjje0icLMjKGTYreE3ze16tbTJUuTJ9NoqbxFiyOGM=
[12:29] <thinky> There is no uefi list
[12:29] <miigotu> If anyone comes asking about a login loop today: Just had a login loop and lockup after upgrade today (I was previously already on bionic). Switched tty and swapped nvidia-390 for nvidia-396 and it solved the issue.
[12:29] <EriC^^> thinky: which pc model is it?
[12:29] <thinky> Lenovo Thinkpad x201
[12:29] <rdias002> Sorry... So my system (Ubuntu 18.04)'s volume is very low. I tried installing realtek hd audio  drivers because that is what windows uses. And now I have no audio at all. What do I do? Ubuntu isn't recognising my audio device.
[12:29] <EriC^^> miigotu: nice thanks for reporting
[12:29] <lotuspsychje> miigotu: tnx 4 feedback
[12:29] <miigotu> Plus side, intel side doesnt freeze up anymore, so thats a win!
[12:29] <EriC^^> thinky: it might be some button like f8 or f10 or f12 or something
[12:30] <thinky> Let me try
[12:30] <EriC^^> thinky: the site says f12
[12:30] <thinky> Eric f12 returns with error
[12:30] <Markdown1_> rdias002 from where have you tried to install the driver?
[12:30] <EriC^^> what error thinky ?
[12:31] <thinky> Error: no such partition Entering rescue mode... grub rescue> _
[12:31] <EriC^^> thinky: yeah it didnt take the button at all
[12:31] <EriC^^> try a different f key
[12:31] <Markdown1_> hosein can you please use https://paste.ubuntu.com/ ?
[12:32] <thinky> Eric it takes
[12:32] <thinky> It shows boot device
[12:32] <thinky> Showing the actual hdd
[12:32] <rdias002> Markdown1_, I downloaded the driver source file from official website. It didn't even install, failed during make itself.
[12:32] <thinky> And no more option
[12:32] <EriC^^> thinky: aha, no uefi list of some sort?
[12:32] <hosein> Markdown1_ whoops sorry
[12:32] <hosein> https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/SyDZGjdXNY/
[12:32] <hosein> here it is
[12:32] <EriC^^> thinky: try entering the bios and see if there's a uefi list there
[12:32] <EriC^^> f1 might enter the bios thinky
[12:33] <Markdown1_> rdias002 you are not supposed to install Drivers in Linux the same way you do in Windows.
[12:33] <thinky> Only option is boot device options
[12:33] <thinky> Hdd cdrom usb ..etc
[12:33] <EriC^^> thinky: are you using uefi or csm legacy?
[12:33] <fath0m> 1
[12:33] <lotuspsychje> fath0m: can we help you?
[12:34] <thinky> In Sata there are compatibility and AHCI
[12:34] <thinky> modes
[12:34] <Markdown1_> rdias002 just something to keep in mind as a new user, Linux have every drivers that you may need and the ones needed can be installed via "Driver Manager"
[12:34] <thinky> I think it is legacy
[12:34] <EriC^^> thinky: ah
[12:34] <Markdown1_> rdias002 or *Additional Drivers I
[12:34] <EriC^^> then it's not uefi
[12:35] <rdias002> Markdown1_ oh... I downloaded the driver files and followed the instructions PDF. Anyway, what do I do now?
[12:35] <EriC^^> thinky: then you need a live usb to boot windows, just focus on reinstalling ubuntu
[12:35] <thinky> What can i do? :(
[12:35] <thinky> Do i need another pc?
[12:35] <EriC^^> thinky: did you try a different usb?
[12:35] <thinky> No i dont have another usb
[12:36] <EriC^^> dvd?
[12:36] <thinky> I always used this one without problem
[12:36] <thinky> If i can open windows i will try Dvd
[12:36] <EriC^^> it seemed to have issues thinky
[12:36] <rdias002> Markdown_1 I did a fresh install anyways... how can I get the windows like loud volume on Ubuntu?
[12:36] <Markdown1_> rdias002 you compiled and installed the driver?
[12:36] <EriC^^> thinky: you can open windows from the live usb's grub, you need to manually boot it from the grub prompt
[12:37] <Anthaas_> HI guys, I don't seem to be able to upgrade to 18.04 from 17.10 with dist-upgrade, and do-release-upgrade says no new releases found.
[12:37] <Markdown1_> rdias002 ok so you now have a new/ fresh install without that installed driver?
[12:37] <rdias002> Markdown_1 yes.
[12:37] <lotuspsychje> Anthaas_: release notes say, few days after release
[12:38] <hosein> any ideas any one? https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/SyDZGjdXNY/
[12:38] <thinky> Eric i found Debian dvds
[12:38] <lotuspsychje> Anthaas_: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BionicBeaver/ReleaseNotes
[12:38] <rdias002> Markdown1_ ./configure happened smoothly. make gave me errors. It looked like there were errors in  alsa/acoreinit.c file
[12:39] <Markdown1_> rdias002 have you tried going to Sound Settings and checked ""Allow louder than 100%""
[12:40] <thinky> Am i banned?
[12:40] <Markdown1_> rdias002 also go to Software and Sources from menu and check for "Additional Drivers"
[12:40] <miigotu> banned? lol
[12:40] <Markdown1_> rdias002 in case there is any.
[12:40] <Markdown1_> thinky not yet, why?
[12:40] <bodie_> having a bit of trouble w/ 18.04 prerelease beta using suggested
[12:40] <rdias002> Markdown1_ Yes, I did more than 100% but no soap. Additional drivers shows nothing
[12:40] <miigotu> Markdown1_, I've never had audio show in additional drivers, is that a thing?
[12:41] <Markdown1_> thinky I think you gotta boot from any other Linux Live cd you got and edit Grub via that.
[12:41] <lotuspsychje> bodie_: beta2 is not anymore
[12:41] <miigotu> rdias002, you have no sound at all or is it just low volume?
[12:41] <debkad> hosein: you have something on your sources.list or sources.list.d that break installation
[12:42] <Markdown1_> miigotu IDK, probably some rare soundcards with proprietary drivers can, it doesn't hurt to check anyways, :)
[12:42] <rdias002> miigotu, I now have a fresh install with very low volume
[12:42] <hosein> debkad, I'll just upload my sources.list
[12:42] <laptop> could be eureka moment
[12:42] <bodie_> https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/M5BqWzRX5q/
[12:42] <bodie_> How can I resolve this?
[12:42] <miigotu> =P
[12:42] <thinky> Debian dvd is not working too
[12:42] <lotuspsychje> laptop: can we help you?
[12:42] <laptop> I am using virtual box to create a windows iso on a usb stick
[12:42] <bodie_> lotuspsychje, I know that the release happened.  That is probably why this is broken :P
[12:42] <laptop> yes I think I may need help if this does  not work
[12:42] <miigotu> rdias002, dont install anything, there is a way to increase the volume, gimme a sec
[12:42] <miigotu> what audio chipset is it?
[12:43] <hosein> debkad : https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/hvrbq8VMFM/
[12:44] <rdias002> miigotu, that's the confusing part. On windows it shows as Realtek HD Audio. And on Linux terminal it says Intel Corporation Sunrise Point-LP HD Audio
[12:44] <hosein> debkad , all the repositories in /etc/apt/sources.list.d are disabled as far as I see in Software & Updates list
[12:44] <bodie_> any suggestions on repairing the packages?
[12:44] <miigotu> rdias002, thats same as mine
[12:44] <lotuspsychje> !final | bodie_
[12:45] <miigotu> `aplay -l` will show you an "HDA Intel PCH"
[12:45] <miigotu> Probably an `CX20751/2 Analog`
[12:45] <bodie_> thanks
[12:46] <scrotus_williams> anyone know the difference between the fork of ubuntu and
[12:46] <debkad> hosein: did you disable them after installing some outside ppa ?
[12:46] <rdias002> miigotu, Yess Yess. It's ACL something
[12:46] <scrotus_williams> fork of virtualbox and the actual virtualbox
[12:46] <scrotus_williams> the package manager gives you the fork
[12:46] <Markdown1_> hosein try running this,  sudo apt install --reinstall python3.5 && sudo apt upgrade
[12:47] <lotuspsychje> scrotus_williams: what are you talking about?
[12:47] <BluesKaj> those with sound troubles ,. make sure your volume ctls in alsamixer are turned up and the automute is disabled
[12:47] <scrotus_williams> well I tried to ask for help in virtualbox channel
[12:47] <scrotus_williams> and they said they cannot help me sincce I am using a fork version
[12:47] <lotuspsychje> scrotus_williams: what fork?
[12:47] <scrotus_williams> of virtual box 5.3
[12:47] <lotuspsychje> scrotus_williams: wich ubuntu are you on?
[12:47] <scrotus_williams> 5.134
[12:48] <scrotus_williams> 16.04 lts
[12:48] <bodie_> in b4 can't start b/c driver problems....
[12:48] <oerheks> scrotus_williams, see the virutal box page, we provide the open source version, and they give the closed source version with more features
[12:48] <lotuspsychje> !info virtualbox xenial
[12:48] <miigotu> https://news.softpedia.com/news/ubuntu-17-10-to-allow-users-to-amplify-the-sound-on-laptops-through-media-keys-517412.shtml
[12:48] <hosein> debkad yep, deleted the whole sources.list actually. and replaced it with the one you saw above
[12:48] <miigotu> rdias002, ^
[12:48] <scrotus_williams> is that available for ubuntu
[12:48] <Markdown1_> rdias002 have you tried the thing I suggested? :P
[12:48] <hosein> Markdown1_ , well same error:Reinstallation of python3.5 is not possible, it cannot be downloaded.
[12:49] <hosein> not the same exactly
[12:49] <Markdown1_> hosein something to do with your sources.list then
[12:49] <oerheks> hosein, you have 16.04.4 packages, and yet trying to install them in 18.04?
[12:49] <oerheks> :-D
[12:50] <Markdown1_> this is why I always do a Fresh Install :P
[12:50] <debkad> tada
[12:50] <oerheks> how did you upgrade to bionic in the 1st place, those old packages should have been deletes
[12:50] <Markdown1_> I am not taking my chances with dist-upgrade
[12:50] <oerheks> dist-upgrade is fine, it does not bring the next release
[12:50] <Markdown1_> oerheks you know what I meant :P
[12:50] <hosein> update-manager
[12:50] <hosein> :D
[12:51] <Markdown1_> that was just poor wording on my part
[12:52] <oerheks> hosein, unlikely, Python 3 has been updated to 3.6
[12:52] <miigotu> ugh xwayland just crashed -.-
[12:52] <lotuspsychje> !rootirc | Guest17615
[12:52] <oerheks> so what did you do exactly??
[12:52] <rdias002> miigotu not yet. My laptop is not with me currently. But will surely give it a try. Thanks a low
[12:52] <hosein> sudo update-manager -d
[12:53] <hosein> the exact command that got me here
[12:53] <hosein> and then I got an error or two!
[12:53] <hosein> I didn't care
[12:53] <scrotus_of_borg> ubuntu is frustating
[12:53] <miigotu> Markdown1_, bionic doesnt have the option to go louder than 100% for me, not even with that url I posted
[12:53] <lotuspsychje> scrotus_of_borg: you cant generalize such statements
[12:53] <hosein> until I upgraded to this version and now found out that I can't use my package manager properly
[12:53] <rdias002> miigotu, what exactly is my audio device? Realtek or Intel?
[12:53] <debkad> hosein: If you have aptitude command try with it and cross fingers
[12:54] <hosein> so I tried to replace repository's with new ones
[12:54]  * hosein crosses fingers
[12:54] <Markdown1_> miigotu huh my bad
[12:54] <jalley> hey, i'm having trouble with UFW blocking DNS requests. My current rules are: https://pastebin.com/JRtH2wPS but logs show it's still blocking DNS here: https://pastebin.com/pFFpxAJi
[12:54] <miigotu> likely intel HD, using the conexant driver. You dont need to change drivers, you need to adjust pulseaudio or alsa settings
[12:54] <hosein> sudo: aptitude: command not found
[12:54] <hosein> :(
[12:54] <scrotus_of_borg> sorry I get frustrated sometimes
[12:54] <lotuspsychje> jalley: have you tried the expert channel #netfilter ?
[12:54] <miigotu> hosein, sudo apt install aptitude
[12:55] <lotuspsychje> scrotus_of_borg: please frustrate in silence
[12:55] <jalley> lotuspsychje, i'll try there thanks
[12:55] <Markdown1_> rdias002 open alsamixer
[12:55] <miigotu> Im not sure I can help much in this channel haha, you guys must have insane patience
[12:55] <Markdown1_> !patience | miigotu
[12:56] <hosein> miigotu , if I could install ANY packages I wouldn't be here: The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[12:56] <hosein> !
[12:56] <lotuspsychje> hosein: did you add external ppa's to your system?
[12:56] <miigotu> lol Markdown1_ I dont have any questions =P just trying to help out a bit
[12:56] <Markdown1_> miigotu that was a joke, nvm.
[12:56] <miigotu> =P
[12:57] <widon> I install ubuntu18.04, I find a bug.The bitmap font render is not right in firefox.
[12:57] <rdias002> Markdown1_ what next?
, I did but that was on 16.04, update-manager disabled all of them by itself
[12:57] <miigotu> widon, you have dark theme enabled?
[12:57] <Markdown1_> rdias002 what is the "Card" and what is the "Chip" ?
[12:57] <widon> no
[12:57] <lotuspsychje> hosein: check your sources.list to verify..
[12:58] <miigotu> widon, I noticed the colors are messed up with ff also, but I have dark theme enabled. I assumed it was my shell theme. Some input boxes you cant even see what you type unless you highlight the text
[12:58] <widon> Can anyone tell me which library does firefox use to render font.
[12:58] <Markdown1_> rdias002 you man increase the Master Volume from there, BTW click F6 and you can select your card.
[12:58] <Markdown1_> rdias002 *can
 just right above I posted all of my sources.list : https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/hvrbq8VMFM/
[12:59] <widon> The font render by firefox has a lot of vetical lines.
[13:00] <miigotu> rdias002, in alsamixer, set master, speaker, and pcm to 100
[13:00] <widon> the bitmap font I set.
[13:00] <debkad> I think enabling those ppa and removing those dependencies will help, and after disable them for ever
[13:00] <lotuspsychje> hosein: hastebin us the output of: sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade
[13:00] <droid> hey all, does anybody know how to get back the network-manager methode "shared to other computers" on ubuntu 18.04? It seems to be not available anymore?
[13:00] <miigotu> but I imagine you have all at 100 already, there was a file I had to manually edit a long time ago Im trying to figure out which it was. Skylake built in audio
[13:01] <widon> Can anyone tell me which library does firefox use to render font ?
[13:01] <hosein> lotuspsychje
[13:01] <hosein> https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/hdmm94gsvV/
[13:01] <hosein> debkad nice idea
[13:02] <Markdown1_> widon can you provide a screenshot?
[13:02] <rdias002> Markdown1_ I did all that. No soap
[13:02] <widon> http://forum.ubuntu.org.cn/viewtopic.php?f=186&t=487304
[13:02] <widon> I grab a lot of screenshot.
[13:03] <widon> every release of ubuntu has bugs :(
[13:03] <segwent> every release of everything has bugs ...
[13:04] <lotuspsychje> hosein: try to force purge those stuck packages with dpkg -P
[13:04] <rdias002> Markdown1_ https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/SFr7zyg8x2/
[13:05] <widon> The font I use called ZFull gb, a bitmap font.
[13:05] <segwent> hi. so using ub1604 and dnsmasq 2.75 .. i do dnsmasq -d -R --server=<ip.add> and then dnsmasq complains that it cannot read /etc/resolv.conf and terminates .. -R means do not read the conf file .. this works with dnsmasq 2.68 .. anybody have any idea what's going on ?
[13:05] <miigotu> rdias002, try this: `pactl set-sink-volume 0 150%`
[13:06] <hosein> lotuspsychje, https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/h27tV5jjpT/
[13:06] <widon> Markdownl_ http://forum.ubuntu.org.cn/viewtopic.php?f=186&t=487304
[13:06] <miigotu> you can set volume higher than 100% that way for sure
[13:06] <Markdown1_> rdias002 you mean you selected sound card by pressing F6 or set your Master dB gain to 0 ?
[13:07] <Markdown1_> rdias002 in alsamixer BTW
[13:07] <hosein> debkad, thanks man your idea did the job!
[13:07] <debkad> hosein: no problem :)
[13:07] <Markdown1_> mm I am unable to open that Forum
[13:08] <bodie_> gdm3 still hangs on login
[13:08] <hosein> Thank you everyone Markdown1_ lotuspsychje debkad miigotu oerheks
[13:08] <widon> Markdownl_ do you see the screenshot I grab ?
[13:08] <bodie_> lightdm still is the working solution
[13:08]  * hosein waves at everyone in the room
[13:08] <droid> does anybody know how to get back the network-manager methode "shared to other computers" on ubuntu 18.04? It seems to be not available anymore?
[13:08] <rdias002> Markdown1_ just a min... My system is taking time to log in...
[13:09] <pragmaticenigma> segwent: double check the documentation?
[13:09] <widon> ubuntu18.04 do not support bitmap font very well, I want go back to ubuntu17.10 now.
[13:10] <cfhowlett> 16.04 is LTS.  17.10 support ends shortly
[13:10] <widon> cfhowlett, ubuntu16.04 use unity, I don't like it.
[13:11] <cfhowlett> !flavors | widon choose one
[13:11] <Markdown1_> rdias002 can you upload it in any other website like imgur for example?
[13:11] <Markdown1_> rdias002 sorry wrong person I tagged
[13:11] <Markdown1_> widon can you upload it in any other website like imgur for example?
[13:12] <segwent> pragmaticenigma: ub1604: man dnsmasq(8~): -d, --no-daemon, -R, --no-resolv; Don't read /etc/resolv.conf
[13:12] <segwent> what might i be looking for ?
[13:12] <pragmaticenigma> segwent: -S --- I think you have an error there
[13:13] <segwent> -S, --local, --server=[/[<domain>]/[domain/]][<ipaddr>[#<port>][@<source-ip>|<interface>[#<port>]]
[13:13] <segwent> --server=<ipaddr>
[13:13] <segwent> worked fine on dnsmasq 2.68
[13:13] <widon> Markdownl_ "Imgur is temporarily over capacity. Please try again later.
[13:14] <pragmaticenigma> segwent: without a domain specified?
[13:14] <segwent> i don't need a domain
[13:14] <segwent> just an ip
[13:14] <miigotu> rdias002, I found your post on askubuntu =P
[13:15] <rdias002> miigotu 😅
[13:15] <segwent> pragmaticenigma: If  one or more *optional* domains are given,
[13:15] <pragmaticenigma> segwent: all the example i've seen have a domain in front of the IP address
[13:16] <widon> Markdownl_ I send you the picture I grab.
[13:16] <segwent> pragmaticenigma: basically dnsmasq -d -R does NOT do what it should
[13:16] <segwent> it always tries to read /etc/resolv.conf
[13:17] <widon> Does anyone know which library firefox use to render font?
[13:17] <rdias002> Heyyy, got some progress. My volumes louder now. I don't know how it happened. But is it still possible to boost it a lil more, because I feel this is not it's maximum capacity. I think my laptop speakers can get louder... Any ideas?
[13:18] <lotuspsychje> rdias002: while you fooling around with sound open a: tail -f /var/log/syslog you might see usefull things happening
[13:18] <pragmaticenigma> segwent: does the process stay in the foreground?
[13:18] <segwent> no it terminates
[13:19] <pragmaticenigma> Does the file /etc/resolv.conf exist?
[13:19] <rdias002> lotuspsychje, sure
[13:19] <segwent> yes but it points to an invalid location
[13:19] <segwent> which is the point of -R
[13:19] <Markdown1_> rdias002 in alsamixer have you incrased the Master?
[13:19] <pragmaticenigma> segwent: define points to invalid location
[13:20] <debkad> rdias002: with pactl you can increase it until you hear noises
[13:20] <Markdown1_> rdias002 I think its -12 by default, make it 0.
[13:20] <Markdown1_> rdias002 you can use your Mouse Scroll for that.
[13:20] <segwent> pragmaticenigma: ls -l /etc/resolv.conf > /run/resolvconf/resolv.conf which does not exist
[13:21] <rdias002> Markdown1_, gain is 0db
[13:21] <segwent> ie. /run/.. etc does not exist
[13:21] <segwent> like i said .. this works perfectly with 2.68
[13:21] <pragmaticenigma> segwent: try removing the link and touching a blank file there and try again
[13:22] <widon> Markdownl_ can you see the picture I sending to you ?
[13:22] <rdias002> debkad, how do I use it?
[13:22] <Markdown1_> widon yes I got it
[13:22] <Nobun> stupid question: I'd like to instruct ubuntu 16.04 (using unity) to open .ui file with qt5 designer (giving the full path of designer application)
[13:22] <debkad> rdias002: as an example: pactl set-sink-volume 0 -- +10% will increase it by 10 %
[13:22] <Nobun> by default
[13:23] <segwent> pragmaticenigma: i don't want a work around, I would like to know why dnsmasq does not work as it should .. the only reason i come here is because i don't find anywhere else to go for dnsmasq .. if you know of a better place please let me know :)
[13:23] <Markdown1_> rdias002 also which card is selected when you press F6 in Alsamixer?
[13:23] <Nobun> but I cannot do it within the gui since designer is not in /usr/bin and it is not showed in the list of available application
[13:23] <debkad> rdias002: to decrease it replace '+' with '-'
[13:23] <pragmaticenigma> segwent: that implies you tried that and it worked... correct?
[13:23] <miigotu> Im curious why he has low volume and I dont, we both have the same chipset
[13:24] <segwent> pragmaticenigma: no .. did not try it .. and it is not actually a solution i will be able to use anyway
[13:24] <Markdown1_> widon run this, sudo apt install ttf-mscorefonts-installer culmus
[13:24] <segwent> i will try it now just for you
[13:24] <miigotu> Maybe Im just used to it, been on linux for years now so IDK if windows is louder haha
[13:25] <rdias002_> ok, im here thru my laptop now
[13:25] <segwent> pragmaticenigma: that does work .....
[13:25] <rdias002_> Markdown1_ it shows HDA Intel PCH
[13:25] <widon> Markdownl do you want me to use other font intead of my favorite bitmap font?
[13:25] <hkais> hello together
[13:26] <miigotu> Its Skylake integrated HD audio ^
[13:26] <hkais> anyone here who could use
[13:26] <hkais> do-release-upgrade to upgrade from 16.04 to 18.04?
[13:26] <hkais> sudo do-release-upgrade
[13:26] <hkais> Checking for a new Ubuntu release
[13:26] <hkais> No new release found.
[13:26] <cfhowlett> hkais, yes in 3 months
[13:26] <cfhowlett> 18.4.1 will work
[13:26] <hkais> cfhowlett: ohh did not know this
[13:26] <lotuspsychje> hkais: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BionicBeaver/ReleaseNotes
[13:27] <miigotu> hkais, sudo do-release-upgrade -d if you really want to
[13:27] <pragmaticenigma> segwent: what I proposed isn't a workaround. I've seen this happend with a lot of applications, and yes, ultimately it's a bug. The application is told not to use the file, but it checks for it anyway. There is no other solution, except to file a bug report
[13:27] <kasa> Hi
[13:27] <segwent> pragmaticenigma: thanks for your help .. i'll see about a bug report :)
[13:27] <widon> Markdownl_ I installed, but everything is the same.
[13:28] <hkais> milgotu: any informations why they defer so long the upgrade?
[13:28] <widon> Markdownl I do not want to use other font.
[13:28] <Guest82779> Is there a way to make a shortcut to a folder without the commandline?
[13:28] <rdias002_> miigotu, oh, what is realtek hd audio then?
[13:30] <pragmaticenigma> segwent: Awesome!
[13:30] <miigotu> idk rdias002_ , `pactl list sinks` will show you the real info, (more than `lspci | grep -i audio` will)
[13:32] <miigotu> rdias002_, There is a pulseaudio config file ytou can make a permanent change, but if you are ok making a script to do it and increase the volume from command line check the temporary answer on askubuntu. It will work for now =P
[13:32] <miigotu> https://askubuntu.com/a/1029227/547940
[13:32] <Guest82779> Does anybody have a way to do this?
[13:33] <widon> Markdown_ do I need post a bug?
[13:34] <miigotu> Guest82779, what kind of shortcut do you mean?
[13:34] <Markdown1_> widon probably
[13:35] <miigotu> In the file manager you can drag a folder to the left side and make it a "favorite"
[13:35] <Guest82779> @miigotu so you can click on it and the folder the shortcut points to opens
[13:35] <Markdown1_> widon this is the issue you are having right? http://forum.ubuntu.org.cn/download/file.php?id=188910
[13:35] <rdias002_> miigotu, thanks a lot
[13:36] <rdias002_> thanks Markdown1_
[13:36] <Guest82779> Like a shortcut on windows
[13:37] <widon> JMM
[13:38] <miigotu> Guest82779, the only way is to add it as a bookmark/favorite in the file manager left pane, or make a soft link in the terminal
[13:39] <miigotu> Linux doesnt operate on links like windows does, and you should get familiar with the command line at some point
[13:39] <Guest82779> Thank you, strange that there is no way to add a link over the gui
[13:40] <Guest82779> miigotu, yeah, but i started using ubuntu yesterday so it will take some time :)
[13:40] <miigotu> Depending on what file manager you use, some of them have a context menu item "Create link"
[13:40] <miigotu> I think it was removed from nautilus in 16.10, you could add it to the context manually but I think that is out of your realm for a beginner
[13:41] <miigotu> Actually Im wrong
[13:41] <Guest82779> Its not really important but I was just interested if it was possible
[13:41] <miigotu> Guest82779, open the file manager and then in the top bar of the desktop click the down arrow next to files and select preferences
[13:42] <widon> Markdown1_ do I need post a bug ?
[13:42] <Markdown1_> I have been using for years
[13:42] <miigotu> under preferences select the behavior tab, and then enable link creation
[13:42] <Markdown1_> still feel like a noob
[13:42] <Markdown1_> :P
[13:43] <miigotu> After it is enabled you can right click any item and select "Create link" and it will create a symbolic link to the item for you that you can place wherever you want
[13:43] <Guest82779> lol I cant find the down arrow
[13:44] <Guest82779> Ah now i found it
[13:44] <miigotu> If you have the file manager open, up next to "Applications" at the top of your screen
[13:44] <Markdown1_> widon you just got to change the font
[13:44] <Guest82779> I enabled it and the option is showing, thank you!
[13:45] <Markdown1_> widon IDK if you should report a bug or not, do if you feel like it.
[13:45] <miigotu> You're welcome Guest82779
[13:45] <miigotu> widon, changing the font makes it work ok?
[13:45] <Markdown1_> widon it is only happening with english/latin letters?
[13:46] <miigotu> And, is it just the font or are input boxes screwed up for you also?
[13:46] <widon> miigotu, only bitmap font go wrong.
[13:47] <widon> Markdownl_ the problem happen both english and chinese character.
[13:47] <widon> miigotu so If I change to another bitmap font, the same problem will appear.
[13:48] <Guest82779> How can I get a username BTW
[13:48] <Guest82779> ?
[13:48] <miigotu> Ok widon, my issue is different =P
[13:48] <droid>  does anybody know how to get back the network-manager methode "shared to other computers" on ubuntu 18.04? It seems to be not available anymore?
[13:49] <oerheks> !register
[13:49] <miigotu> droid, it dhould show if you have an eligible device
[13:49] <miigotu> should*
[13:50] <ledeni> boinc look nice on bionic https://imgur.com/a/1FhVhyt graphic work well

[13:54] <kasa_> droid are you german?
[13:54] <droid> man thank you!
[13:54] <droid> yes
[13:55] <kasa_> Same
[13:55] <debkad> vas mars too
[13:55] <droid> really thank you! :)
[13:57] <ledeni> droid, you're welcome
[14:01] <widon> ubuntu18.04 E: Unable to locate package unetbootin
[14:04] <krytarik> !info unetbootin | widon
[14:04] <krytarik> Make sure 'universe' is enabled.
[14:05] <widon> krytarik how can I enable 'universe'
[14:06] <krytarik> !repos
[14:09] <widon> krytarik I already enable 'universe', but still can not find the unetbootin package.
[14:09] <EriC^^> widon: sudo apt-get update
[14:10] <Jonii> Okay so I have a stupid problem: Audio settings window forces itself to be larger than my screen
[14:10] <widon> EriC I already use sudo apt update
[14:10] <Jonii> There's no way to resize it to be smaller, or scroll the window, or move it above the screen
[14:10] <Jonii> So basically it doesn't work because I can't use any of the settings found therein
[14:10] <tatpap> is there a way to change the default terminal app?
[14:10] <Jonii> As they are way below my screen
[14:10] <tatpap> in ubuntu proper
[14:10] <ioria> !info unetbootin bionic
[14:11] <krytarik> Eh, thanks for not updating the default release...
[14:11] <widon> !if unetbootin bionic
[14:11] <widon> !info unetbootin bionic
[14:11] <debkad> Jonii: try pavucontrol ( may be )
[14:12] <widon> I back to ubuntu17.10 now...
[14:12] <krytarik> lol
[14:12] <ioria> just for that ? :þ
[14:12] <widon> for ubuntu18.04 do not support bitmap font very well
[14:16] <ledeni> Jonii, what DE you using
[14:20] <kasa_> When I boot ubuntu, some letters on the login and cancel button are missing
[14:20] <kasa_> is there a fix for that?
[14:21] <tazemt76> kasa, any chance it's an issue with your video card?
[14:21] <kasa_> missing letters in folder names and menus seems to be common but for me its only the two buttons on th login screen
[14:22] <kasa_> tazemt76 I dont know, i have a GT540M, is there a compatibility mode or something to try?
[14:23] <Paradox55> I can't boot into any live linux distros, period. Soft and hard cpu lockups and kernel panics. Meanwhile windows 10 is chugging along happily with no problem.
[14:23] <xenos> is there an intrinsic bug on vlc-ubuntu17.10 when accessing data from ntfs partition ?
[14:24] <tomreyn> Paradox55: could be a bios issue. what's your hardware?
[14:24] <tazemt76> I don't know much, but I'd start with google to see if there are any reported issues.  Then again, I may be barking up the totally wrong tree.
[14:24] <tazemt76> What version of Ubuntu are you running?
[14:24] <Paradox55> tomreyn GE72VR Apache Pro 7RF 418
[14:24] <kasa_> 18.04
[14:25] <tazemt76> I'd dig into the bug reports, see if anyone esle is having your same issue.
[14:25] <Paradox55> tomreyn here is ubuntu 18.04 after getting /dev/srv0 errors, dumping into initramfs and replugging the usb stick/exiting (which should cause it to continue to boot): https://i.imgur.com/6tirgA5.jpg
[14:27] <ioria> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mesa/+bug/1760201
[14:28] <ioria> kasa_, can you try the Xorg session ?
[14:29] <kasa_> ioria what do you mean?
[14:29] <kasa_> Can you give me a quick guide on what to do with xorg, im a complete linux noob
[14:29] <Paradox55> I'm starting to suspect it's an issue with the linux kernel itself
[14:29] <tomreyn> Paradox55: you're running the latest bios apparently. looks like this can be this issue: https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/1/22/57
[14:29] <ioria> kasa_, wait, xorg is default now ... not wayland
[14:30] <ledeni> ioria, yes
[14:30] <ioria> kasa_,  echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE    what it says ?
[14:30] <kasa_> I am now trying sudo apt install nvidia-driver-390 which was sugested on the bug report site
[14:30] <ioria> kasa_, yep
[14:31] <kasa_> ioria echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE says x11
[14:31] <ioria> kasa_, ok, it's xorg
[14:31] <xenos> kasa_ tell us what did you write after the command above... :)
[14:31] <kasa_> Ok, ill wait for the nvidia drivers to install, reboot, and check if it works
[14:32] <ioria> ok
[14:32] <Paradox55> tomreyn figures. I'm guessing there is no easy fix?
[14:32] <kasa_> xenos nothing, I just entered "sudo apt install nvidia-driver-390"
[14:32] <xenos> no root password ??? :P
[14:32] <tomreyn> Paradox55: what we see on your screen shot are follow up errors. would you be able to catch the initial error?
[14:33] <Paradox55> tomreyn: Sure, ill be back in 5-10 minutes then
[14:34] <xenos> no humor too, obviously... :(
[14:37] <tomreyn> Paradox55: https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1074860-start-0.html (which has the same *follow-up* kernel oopsesa s you have seen) suggests that disabling kernel page table isolation (kpti), a counter measure against the meltdown cpu bug, works around this issue. you can do so by providing this kernel parameter at the boot loader (grub): pti=off
[14:38] <xenos> is there a bug on vlc2.2.6-ubuntu17.10 when accessing data from ntfs partition ?
[14:40] <tomreyn> xenos: that's so specific a question you should either check the relevant bug tracker(s) or ask in #videolan
[14:41] <xenos> tomreyn: thank you, I will check that channel... keep it up !
[14:41] <tomreyn> xenos:this doesn't seem to be the current vlc version in any supported ubuntu release.
[14:42] <tomreyn> https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=vlc&exact=1
[14:42] <xenos> tomreyn: I used apt-get to install, should I use apt ?
[14:43] <tomreyn> xenos: for this, and most other uses, it does not matter whether you use apt or apt-get. make sure you install updates / patches.
[14:44] <Paradox55> tomreyn: Different issue this time: https://i.imgur.com/TXcXcDd.png
[14:44] <tomreyn> Paradox55: here's what i wrote earlier when you were already gone: https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1074860-start-0.html (which has the same *follow-up* kernel oopsesa s you have seen) suggests that disabling kernel page table isolation (kpti), a counter measure against the meltdown cpu bug, works around this issue. you can do so by providing this kernel parameter at the boot loader (grub): pti=off
[14:46] <xenos> tomreyn: I use artful (17.10) and vlc 2.2.6 the same as the version at the site you refer...
[14:46] <kasa_> The nvidia drivers are installed, I will be back after rebooting
[14:46] <tomreyn> !info vlc artful
[14:46] <Paradox55> tomreyn isn't disabling the meltdown patch counter productive though?
[14:47] <tomreyn> xenos: version "2.2.6-6" is not the same as version "2.2.6-ubuntu17.10"
[14:47] <tomreyn> Paradox55: not if it allows you to boot
[14:48] <kasa>  kasa_
[14:48] <tomreyn> Paradox55: but you don'T want to do it generally, yes. but if its needed to get the installation going, that'd be okay i guess.
[14:48] <kasa_> Wow, it worked!
[14:48] <Paradox55> I'll give it a shot. pti=off huh
[14:48] <xenos> tomreyn: it was just "word combination" not the version of the vlc package !
[14:48] <kasa_> Thank you ioria
[14:48] <ioria> kasa_, you're welcome , well done
[14:49] <anonymous> hi
[14:49] <kasa_> How can you change the language of the login screen?
[14:49] <tomreyn> Paradox55: right. also try a 16.04.4 live cd
[14:49] <Guest19> are you in ubuntu_
[14:49] <kasa_> I installed ubuntu in german but switched to english but the login screen is still german
[14:49] <tomreyn> xenos: i see
[14:50] <Guest19> Im in anonymous so
[14:50] <xenos> tomreyn: forgive me for the frustration I created :)
[14:50] <Guest19> Where are you from_
[14:50] <Guest19> __
[14:50] <tomreyn> xenos: no worries
[14:50] <oerheks> Guest19, do you have an Ubuntu support issue?

[14:51] <OdysseyRS> Is there a way to disable the gnome dock in 17.10? I have Dash to Dock but it still appears on the side in the Applications Menu.
[14:51] <laptop> hello do the intel drivers work better in ubuntu 18 vs 16
[14:52] <kasa_> Strange, when I lock the Computer the login screen is in english but after booting it is german
[14:52] <laptop> in other words for an older graphics card would the drivers work better
[14:52] <laptop> in ubuntu 18
[14:52] <oerheks> laptop, try it out yourself, there are newer drivers is the latest LTS
[14:53] <oerheks> but really old intel chips are as good as they were, i guess
[14:54] <tomreyn> you should probably not run gnome 3 with a really old intel gpu, but pick a different desktop environment then
[14:55] <ina> привет!
[14:55] <oerheks> !ru | ina
[14:55] <ina>  /join #ubuntu-ru
[14:57] <skinux> I need to know the commands to get all system info that would allow someone to help me properly configure a VirtualBox VM Ubuntu server to run nicely on my system.
[14:58] <lsof> https://i.imgur.com/HPB0XNv.gif
[14:59] <Paradox55> tomreyn: No luck.
[14:59] <lsof> Congratulations. 2+ years of this.
[14:59] <Paradox55> tomreyn: Also the NMI lockups happen on different distros too
[14:59] <oerheks> LoLz @ lsof
[15:00] <lsof> I mean, is this that hard to fix?
[15:00] <lsof> Am I the only person that likes to use solid color black wallpaper to notice this?
[15:00] <lsof> Every year since 2016, every new release, I hope this is fixed. It's still not.
[15:01] <oerheks> when you would select something, group of icons or something on a windows, you would see the selection-field. but not back on black, it is not really a bug
[15:01] <thinky> hello again
[15:01] <Bennit> Hi, I'm trying to make my Ryzen 1700x run smooth under ubuntu (kernel 4.13.0-39) But I cannot get it to run consistently at a decent clockspeed
[15:01] <thinky> finally i installed 18.04 but when i do the command " sudo grub-install /dev/sda " i am getting this warning : Installing for i386-pc platform. grub-install: warning: Sector 32 is already in use by the program `FlexNet'; avoiding it.  This software may cause boot or other problems in future.  Please ask its authors not to store data in the boot track. Installation finished. No error reported.
[15:02] <Bennit> currently all cores are running at ~550 mhz instead of the 3.4k under windows
[15:02] <lsof> oerheks: why make the selection box visible on any background at all then?
[15:02] <thinky> what can i do?
[15:02] <Paradox55> Going to give 16.04 a shot
[15:02] <Bennit> sometimes after a reboot it is solved, sometimes it solves itself after a couple of hours of being logged in
[15:02] <Bennit> I've tried using cpufrequtils but all guides I find for this give no change whatsoever
[15:03] <Bennit> any other ideas?
[15:05] <lsof> https://i.imgur.com/r7Ro0Ph.gif - why even bother about fixing something when you can just call it not a bug
[15:05] <Bennit> I've tried setting the cpu freq goverener to performance and other modes, tried setting ondemand
[15:06] <beaver> where is Lubuntu 18.04 arm please ?
[15:06] <oerheks> lsof, do you happen to have a bugreport on this?
[15:07] <lsof> oerheks: I do not. I thought it would be so obvious to notice it and I don't really use ubuntu on a non-VM anyway (it's too crappy to use on a standard desktop installation). If I recall correctly it worked okay up to 14.10.
[15:08] <w0lf> tried Arch / Linux mint / sabayon / kali / parrot linux but finally stick to kubuntu
[15:08] <w0lf> what a performance
[15:08] <w0lf> it has everything i need
[15:08] <w0lf> kudos to whole ubuntu community
[15:09] <BluesKaj> w0lf, then join us at #kubuntu  chat :-)
[15:09] <lsof> Desktop linux on non-VM is a joke anyway currently, it's quite sad.
[15:09] <w0lf> BluesKaj, hahah I will but I can be here as well no ?
[15:09] <BluesKaj> yup, both are allowed
[15:10] <w0lf> lsof what do you mean /
[15:10] <w0lf> lsof, running a linux distro on a VM like virtual box or vmplayer is not as friendly as it is running on laptop or desktop
[15:10] <BluesKaj> lsof, stop the FUD please , opinions aren't facts
[15:11] <w0lf> I have ditched windows and move to linux fully with kubuntu
[15:11] <oerheks> beaver, use the netboot or server version and install lubuntu on top of it https://www.ubuntu.com/download/server/arm
[15:11] <w0lf> also lsof I am not a nubee
[15:11] <beaver> thank you oerheks
[15:11] <lotuspsychje> w0lf: only ubuntu support issues here please
[15:11] <w0lf> I have been using linux since 1997
[15:11] <lsof> w0lf: just to name something - the input system (particularly related to mouse acceleration) is fucked up compared to Windows. The sound is fucked up. Crap like f.lux or Redlight doesn't really work. Any non-standard peripherial like fingerprint reader on my Thinkpad doesn't work. Ubuntu doesn't really work at all EXCEPT on the recommended laptops.
[15:11] <lotuspsychje> !ot | lsof
[15:11] <w0lf> lsof, then leave this channel and go somewhere else
[15:12] <w0lf> lotuspsychje, sorry got ya
[15:12] <lsof> I'm not going to. I want to actually install and use Ubuntu as my daily operating system this time. I'm trying really hard.
[15:13] <Tecan> i cant seem to make ufw and teeworlds work
[15:13] <w0lf> lsof, so stop saying bad things speak to me if you need
[15:13] <Tecan> together that is
[15:13] <w0lf> lsof, I am not on linux only thanks to ubuntu
[15:13] <w0lf> *not / now
[15:13] <w0lf> I am now on linux and removed windows
[15:13] <lsof> I've tried to make dual boot encrypted LVM and the installer just crapped out.
[15:14] <lsof> Like, it crashed with no apparent reason and left the partitions in undefined state, thus fucking up both my installs.
[15:14] <w0lf> lsof, ask your question here and people will help
[15:14] <w0lf> lsof, you can still take backup of using live ubuntu usb
[15:15] <lsof> w0lf: I know more than you.
[15:15] <lotuspsychje> lsof: stop that please
[15:15] <w0lf> lsof, so stop crying
[15:15] <w0lf> lsof, and do the stuff
[15:16] <lsof> It's really more of a rant and I don't expect anyone to address my concerns at all. I just hope ANY Linux desktop will be USABLE till the end of life of Windows 7.
[15:16] <lsof> Which is really coming close now.
[15:16] <w0lf> lsof, well then you know nothing hahaha
[15:17] <oerheks> lsof, well, if you don't have a bugreport number, file a bug report then..
[15:17] <oerheks> .. we don't do that for you
[15:17] <kasa_> Hi, when I boot, directly after the grub screen disappears, The boot log appears
[15:17] <kasa_> Is there a way to hide this?
[15:18] <lsof> oerheks: I'll get a response after 3 months saying it's a feature. That's how most of OSS works.
[15:18] <lotuspsychje> kasa_: you mean textboot?
[15:18] <w0lf> lsof, HAHAAHA
[15:18] <rypervenche> Tecan: Are you hosting a game?
[15:18] <w0lf> lsof, thats something I cant trust yoy
[15:18] <w0lf> you
[15:19] <Tecan> no just trying to play one
[15:19] <kasa_> lotuspsychje I dont know how its called but it shows what happened during booting ("starting Gnome" etc.)
[15:19] <djamal> wgtpkg-pack
[15:19] <rypervenche> Tecan: Can you show us the rules that are in place when you set up your firewall then?
[15:19] <djamal> what is this
[15:19] <kasa_> it disappears after a second or so and the ubuntu loading screen appears like it should
[15:19] <trevorj> ^ lol wat
[15:19] <Nobun> any answer to my question?
[15:20] <kasa_> This changed after I installed the Nvidia drivers because some letters of the login screen were missing
[15:20] <Nobun> I asked how could I 'force' unity (on ubuntu 16.04) to open .ui files with qt5 designer
[15:21] <Nobun> I can't do it in the unity gui, since qt5 designed is not listed in available applications (even if installed)
[15:21] <Tecan> https://netpipe.ca/paste/paste.php?id=5
[15:21] <trevorj> @Nobun: You can hack it
[15:22] <kostkon> Nobun, https://askubuntu.com/q/16580/1651
[15:22] <MonkeyDust> Nobun  nano ~/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list
[15:22] <trevorj> @Nobun: I won't tell anyone, lol. But if you know the executable of an "available" program, symlink qt5 designer's bin to that somewhere in your PATH
[15:22] <Tecan> it has udp  port ranges and tcp port open bidirectional
[15:22] <trevorj> Nobun: other than that gtk uses mimetypes I think kde does too?
[15:22] <trevorj> Ah, peeps got you
[15:23] <Nobun> thank trevorj, kostkon and MonkeyDust :) I will read all your links
[15:23] <kasa_> Does anyone have an idea?
[15:23] <trevorj> kasa_: I joined in post, can you repeat?
[15:23] <rypervenche> Tecan: Are you blocking outbound traffic?
[15:23] <MonkeyDust> kasa_  keep ypur questions in one line, so you can easily repeat it
[15:24] <Tecan> yes
[15:24] <laptop> can you install ubuntu graphics drivers in ubuntu 16.04
[15:24] <laptop> and if so how
[15:24] <kasa_> When I boot, after the grub screen, I shortly see the boot log before the ubuntu screen appears
[15:24] <auronandace> i'm running 18.04 and trying to setup my hp scanjet pro 3500. it worked fine under 17.10 but doesn't seem to want to play ball now. i used the hp-setup utility and it seems to download and install the required plugin but after that it doesn't allow me to set it up. it apparently can't find the appropriate ppd file (i though ppds were just for printers).
[15:24] <djamal> hey i need this tool wgtpkg
[15:24] <trevorj> kasa_: okay, normal so far
[15:24] <djamal> how can i find it
[15:24] <trevorj> kasa_: is that your problem?
[15:24] <Nobun> MonkeyDust: I will try to symlink and create qt5-designer symlink and see if the trick works before trying mimetype
[15:25] <kasa_> trevorj Really? Before I installed the nvidia drivers, it directly went to the ubunto loading screen and i liked this
[15:25] <DarkAceZ> hi, I installed 18.04 earlier this month. Just now, I reloaded my repos, and clicked "mark all upgrades", but none were marked
[15:25] <trevorj> kasa_: Yeah, here's the thing
[15:25] <kasa_> trevorj Yeah, I know its not really a problem, just a minor inconvenience
[15:25] <DarkAceZ> do I need to do some sort of updating now that it's officially released?
[15:25] <trevorj> kasa_: the nvidia drivers don't fully support atomic modesetting
[15:25] <rypervenche> Tecan: Then you need to open up udp to the destination port that teeworlds uses, which is UDP 8303 by default.
[15:25] <DarkAceZ> I find it hard to believe there are no updates for me
[15:25] <trevorj> kasa_: that is what you had the benefit of before
[15:26] <trevorj> kasa_: With time, I'm betting this will be fixed on it's own, just don't expect it tomorrow knowing nv's lightspeed
[15:26] <kasa_> trevorj Ok, thanks for the help!
[15:26] <trevorj> kasa_: I would tell you how to force enable it
[15:26] <trevorj> kasa_: but it's been absolutely broken for the last few releases now
[15:27] <trevorj> kasa_: aka non-usable leading to a non-working X
[15:27] <trevorj> but the modesetting works great
[15:27] <kasa_> trevorj, No problem, Its not that important
[15:27] <trevorj> kasa_: :)
[15:30] <trevorj> auronandace: Did the "driverless" printing not work out of the box?
[15:30] <trevorj> auronandace:
[15:30] <trevorj> ignore that
[15:31] <trevorj> the hp drivers used to be in the repos already anyway, is that what you installed or did you install something from hp?
[15:31] <trevorj> s/used/at least used/
[15:31] <laptop> I am running ubuntu 16.04 on my desktop computer how do I download the latest intel graphics drivers for 18.04
[15:32] <auronandace> trevorj: the hp drivers are in the repos, those are the ones i used. The setup utility connects to the hp servers to download the plugin for the scanner
[15:32] <trevorj> @auronandace: ppds are used for printer definitions in this case :)
[15:32] <auronandace> trevorj: that is what i though
[15:32] <trevorj> auronandace: ah, it's a *scanner* you're trying to get to work? Must have missed that
[15:32] <xangua> !info printer-all
[15:33] <xangua> Mmmm
[15:33] <trevorj> auronandace: or both?
[15:33] <lotuspsychje> auronandace: i got a hp all in one, had to add it in printers from gnome settings
[15:34] <trevorj> auronandace: which part(s) do not work at this time I mean? scanning, printing, or both?
[15:34] <xangua> !info printers-all
[15:34] <trevorj> lol
[15:34] <xangua> I can't remember the name of the package
[15:34] <trevorj> Yeah I don't think I've printed anything in 3 years
[15:35] <trevorj> It's rusty knowledge now
[15:35] <pinemore> @search cory franklin
[15:35] <trevorj> auronandace: the ppds are downloaded from hp I think
[15:35] <ioria> !info printer-driver-all
[15:36] <trevorj> auronandace: obv the url is dead now, have you tried looking around for that filename it wants re the .ppd ?
[15:36] <auronandace> trevorj: it is just a flatbed scanner, all it does is scan. i can't get it to do that with 18.04 although it downloads the necessary plugin from hp via the hp-setup utility i installed from ubuntu's repos
[15:37] <xangua> auronandace: see ioria / ubottu  above
[15:37] <trevorj> it won't help him this is about a scanner
[15:37] <lotuspsychje> auronandace: you might wanna check sane too
[15:37] <auronandace> lotuspsychje: sane is also installed
[15:37] <lotuspsychje> trevorj: some printers have scanners onboard right
[15:38] <lotuspsychje> auronandace: hplip-data installed?
[15:38] <auronandace> lotuspsychje: yes
[15:38] <trevorj> lotuspsychje: yeah, but that's just bad naming
[15:38] <trevorj> lotuspsychje: and I bet that page has next to nothing about scanners
[15:39] <lotuspsychje> auronandace: did you check gnome settings devices/printer?
[15:39] <trevorj> @auronandace: you're gonna have to see if your scanner is supported
[15:39] <trevorj> @auronandace: If the system sees it in devices as a scanner, you should be okay
[15:39] <auronandace> trevorj: it is supported. it was working in 17.10
[15:40] <trevorj> Oh great
[15:40] <lotuspsychje> auronandace: system up to date to latest also?
[15:40] <trevorj> auronandace: sane-find-scanner
[15:40] <trevorj> auronandace: mind running that and seeing if it finds it?
[15:41] <nooneelse> does anyone knows how to get the current Xorg config other than "X -configure"
[15:41] <auronandace> lotuspsychje: just installed 18.04 and tried to set it up the same way i did in 17.10. the set up utility downloads and installs the plugin but my scanner doesn't get set up
[15:41] <trevorj> nooneelse: there is no xorg config by default
[15:41] <nooneelse> mine is returning segmentation fault, but the strange is that the X is running
[15:41] <nooneelse> trevorj: but cant I get the current running config ?
[15:41] <trevorj> nooneelse: ie what you're getting are generated defaults
[15:42] <nooneelse> trevorj:  oh dang =(
[15:42] <trevorj> nooneelse: if X is running then it can't be segfaulting
[15:42] <trevorj> nooneelse: unless that's your display manager or another session?
[15:42] <lotuspsychje> auronandace: try to open that scanner tool
[15:43] <nooneelse> trevorj: I mean is running (its working) but when I stop it and try to run the 'X -configure ' command from console then it returns the segfault
[15:43] <auronandace> lotuspsychje: simple-scan?
[15:43] <trevorj> nooneelse: auronandace  in the terminal ;)
[15:43] <lotuspsychje> auronandace: yes, i recall the window asked me to find scanner
[15:44] <trevorj> nooneelse: Sounds like a bug to me
[15:44] <auronandace> lotuspsychje: it doesn't locate the scanner
[15:44] <trevorj> nooneelse: Try without X running
[15:44] <lotuspsychje> auronandace: ok try what trevorj suggested
[15:44] <nooneelse> trevorj: yeah I did that
[15:45] <nooneelse> trevorj: same error
[15:45] <trevorj> nooneelse: it could just be a resource thing with likely a video driver
[15:45] <trevorj> aww
[15:45] <nooneelse> trevorj: In fact my monitors are ALMOST fine, the only issue is the tearing in the builtin monitor
[15:45] <trevorj> nooneelse: you stopped gdm and all that?
[15:45] <trevorj> nooneelse: what video card?
[15:46] <trevorj> nooneelse: amd, intel, or nvidia?
[15:46] <nooneelse> trevorj: nvidia, I've opened this thread https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2390319
[15:47] <nooneelse> trevorj: basically this is the ONLY issue I got on Ubuntu 18.04 so far, the rest is spetacullar'ly blazzing fast
[15:47] <trevorj> @nooneelse: What's your refresh rates across your setup?
[15:47] <Alejandro> hello
[15:47] <nooneelse> trevorj: you mean the ones setup of the default from each hardware ?
[15:47] <nooneelse> *or
[15:47] <lotuspsychje> Alejandro: welcome, how can we help you?
[15:47] <Alejandro> i have problems with the internal sound
[15:47] <trevorj> nooneelse: whatever ones you use
[15:48] <lotuspsychje> !sound | Alejandro start here
[15:48] <trevorj> nooneelse: I assume since only one has tearing, you have some that are >60
[15:48] <auronandace> lotuspsychje: https://imgur.com/
[15:48] <auronandace> lotuspsychje: https://ibb.co/fkbYPH
[15:48] <Alejandro> but when i connect the hdmi cable the spound works
[15:48] <Alejandro> sound
[15:49] <Alejandro> but with my headphones does not work
[15:49] <trevorj> nooneelse: are you running gnome as your desktop or something else?
[15:49] <lotuspsychje> Alejandro: check also pavucontrol, see if you can fix
[15:49] <thinky> damn why did they put window icons on right side? left was cool
[15:49] <nooneelse> trevorj: yes there is on with 60.02
[15:49] <trevorj> nooneelse: is it your lcd?
[15:49] <thinky> - X
[15:49] <lotuspsychje> auronandace: did you try from terminal what trevorj suggested
[15:49] <Alejandro> what is the pavucontrol
[15:50] <Alejandro> ?
[15:50] <lotuspsychje> !info pavucontrol | Alejandro
[15:50] <trevorj> nooneelse: nooneelse for you in particular the defaults for video are in the nvidia docs fyi
[15:50] <nooneelse> trevorj: just fyi, this is the xrand --verbose
[15:51] <nooneelse> trevorj: https://pastebin.com/8fDyCdNP
[15:51] <trevorj> nooneelse: ty 1s
[15:51] <nooneelse> trevorj: I have noticed now that "prime" is not enabled for the bulti in monitor eDP-1-1
[15:52] <trevorj> @nooneelse: damn son, your edp gets 150hz?
[15:52] <trevorj> 140*
[15:52] <nooneelse> trevorj: I dont think so its a low budget Dell INspiron 7567 lol =)
[15:52] <Alejandro> can you send me the code to doing in the terminal please?
[15:52] <auronandace> lotuspsychje, trevorj: here is the result of sane-find-scanner: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/VrhJ7cKKBS/
[15:53] <trevorj> @nooneelse: ah I was on the wrong line, long ass output with -vv
[15:53] <trevorj> nooneelse: ok so you'll get tearing esp if it's not dividable between the two
[15:53] <lotuspsychje> auronandace: hmm access denied, are youa dmin of your system?
[15:53] <trevorj> nooneelse: That's what I'm looking for
[15:54] <auronandace> lotuspsychje, trevorj: when i set it up via the hp setup utility it sees it fine: https://ibb.co/eLUsJc but going to the next screen I can't set it up: https://ibb.co/dWx7jH
[15:54] <nooneelse> trevorj: "tearing esp" ? what that ?
[15:54] <nooneelse> *what's
[15:54] <trevorj> nooneelse: tearing, especially
[15:55] <nooneelse> oh
[15:55] <auronandace> lotuspsychje: yes: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/d3pxWqs6FJ/
[15:56] <Alejandro> ubottu?
[15:56] <trevorj> nooneelse: actually it looks like both of yours are set to 60hz right now?
[15:56] <nooneelse> trevorj: I will try a shot at the nvidia forums, maybe they have more experience with that issues, but it's sad that this isn't in a "setup wizard / settings" gui nowadays  :(
[15:56] <trevorj> nooneelse: it is
[15:57] <trevorj> nooneelse: You can try this:
[15:57] <trevorj> nooneelse: Option "TripleBuffer" "true"
[15:57] <trevorj> nooneelse: you'll need to make an xorg.conf.d file like so:
[15:58] <nooneelse> trevorj: but do I need to set all the monitors, devices and stuff in to that xorg.conf ?
[15:58] <nooneelse> trevorj: or just the settings that I need ?
[15:58] <trevorj> nooneelse: https://pastebin.com/pga56YwE
[15:58] <pz_> hello :-)
[15:58] <lotuspsychje> auronandace: not sure what else to try mate, perhaps reboot, update system, plugin usb in/out
[15:59] <lotuspsychje> auronandace: try also different usb ports, and tail -f /var/log/syslog while plugin usb
[15:59] <trevorj> nooneelse: put that in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/nvidia.conf but first comment out the metamodes line, you may want that later though, so just leave it there waiting ;)
[15:59] <pz_> is there anyone who upgraded to Ubuntu 18.04 and experienced HW acceleration issues with Mesa/AMD?
[16:00] <lotuspsychje> auronandace: i recall first time scanner, i also had problems, till system updated some hp and sane packages
[16:00] <auronandace> lotuspsychje: thanks for trying
[16:01] <nooneelse> trevorj: I will give it a shot, stay tunned =D
[16:01] <nooneelse> brb
[16:07] <endersending> with a fresh install, should i do a apt-get update?
[16:07] <nooneelse_> trevorj: so, now both are tearing lol :D
[16:07] <trevorj> bahaha
[16:07] <trevorj> nooneelse_: with xrandr, please adjust the one that supports higher res to the higher one
[16:08] <nooneelse_> trevorj: sorry the newbieness but how do I do that ?
[16:08] <nooneelse_> I have found a command to manually enable prime
[16:08] <trevorj> nooneelse_: wait, you're on a prime laptop?
[16:08] <nooneelse_> trevorj: yeah it's a laptop, dunno if its a prime one, but it seems to be using it
[16:08] <trevorj> nooneelse_: so, that could be related here since it's only your edp
[16:09] <trevorj> nooneelse_: to disable the thing we did, just comment out TripleBuffer line
[16:09] <trevorj> nooneelse_: but, it should not cause tearing
[16:10] <lotuspsychje> endersending: always keep your system up to date :p
[16:10] <trevorj> nooneelse_: I don't know a gui tool to adjust the refresh rate tbh
[16:10] <trevorj> nooneelse_: I use xrandr from the cli
[16:10] <nooneelse_> trevorj: So, I didnt tell you before but I dont have that specific directory, so I ve create a xorg.conf file and put it in there
[16:10] <trevorj> nooneelse_: I would not do that
[16:10] <trevorj> nooneelse_: I would make the dir (it's not there by default)
[16:11] <pz_> is there anyone who upgraded to Ubuntu 18.04 and experienced HW acceleration issues with Mesa/AMD?
[16:11] <nooneelse_> trevorj: oh ok, sorry but can you send me the dir again please ?
[16:11] <nooneelse_> trevorj: I have lost the session log in here :(
[16:12] <trevorj> nooneelse_: lol sorry /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d
[16:12] <nooneelse_> trevorj: and then a nvidia.conf file right
[16:13] <trevorj> nooneelse_: si
[16:13] <trevorj> nooneelse_: /usr/share/doc/nvidia-driver-390/xconfigoptions.html contains docs on what each option does, just fyi
[16:13] <trevorj> nooneelse_: may need to change the version
[16:14] <trevorj> (in the path)
[16:14] <nooneelse_> trevorj: cool gotta take a look
[16:14] <trevorj> nooneelse_: most have nothing to do with your issue though
[16:14] <nooneelse_> gonna*
[16:14] <trevorj> nooneelse_: the only one that really could help is triplebuffer
[16:14] <trevorj> nooneelse_: I would set your refresh rates
[16:14] <nooneelse_> trevorj: np, its always good to absorve some extra info
[16:15] <nooneelse_> trevorj: I will mess with it right now
[16:15] <trevorj> nooneelse_: I agree :)
[16:15] <trevorj> nooneelse_: I set mine like this in the cli (I wish I could give you a better way)
[16:15] <trevorj> nooneelse_: `xrandr --output DP-1 --primary --mode 3440x1440 --rate 100 --right-of DP-0`
[16:16] <trevorj> nooneelse_: so, the trick is to always include the mode if you're also setting a rate
[16:16] <trevorj> nooneelse_: otherwise it just does nothing at all
[16:16] <trevorj> This is why I have that metamodes line in the config ;)
[16:17] <trevorj> That sets the modes before anything starts at all to the proper refresh rate, since most monitors default to 60hz, and it looks like yours supports higher
[16:18] <zeffy> anyone using dvwa?
[16:18] <trevorj> nooneelse_: Actually I lied, I was looking at mine
[16:19] <trevorj> nooneelse_: your monitors are all 60hz then?
[16:19] <oerheks> zeffy, DVWA is more subject for KALI users, pentesting
[16:20] <zeffy> i wonder if it work with php7
[16:21] <oerheks> zeffy, according to this manual, seems so https://th3phantoms.blogspot.nl/2017/04/install-dvwa-on-ubuntu-server-1604.html
[16:21] <trevorj> nooneelse_: the other option is something like settnig usleep
[16:21] <trevorj> nooneelse_: https://askubuntu.com/questions/456355/have-tearing-no-vsync-in-movies-nvidia-proprietary-driver
[16:22] <zeffy> ty oerheks
[16:22] <trevorj> nooneelse_: the arch page is pretty good on this too
[16:22] <trevorj> nooodlesnodes: keep in mind you are prime, so you have odd display routing
[16:26] <Metraf> Hi, I have troubles managing partitions on my new M.2 SSD in gdisk as well as in gparted, there's no option to add or remove partitions whereas it does exist for my old HDD : https://imgur.com/a/I3Eu4tC
[16:28] <oerheks> Metraf, if this m2 contains an installed ubuntu, use a live iso to edit partitions
[16:30] <ironman> Hello
[16:30] <Metraf> oerheks it's an empty ext4 partition
[16:31] <oerheks> Metraf, what happens if you hit that black square ( =stop)
[16:31] <oerheks> then you would be able to edit
[16:31] <Alejandro> still
[16:31] <Alejandro> with problems internal sound
[16:32] <Alejandro> i can not use my headphones
[16:32] <oerheks> !alsa | Alejandro check out these pages, to get newer alsa drivers, not from their realtec website
[16:33] <Metraf> oerheks it's just mounting or unmounting the disk and has no effect whatsoever on what I can do to partitions
[16:35] <EriC^^> Metraf: do you want to format the whole disk?
[16:35] <oerheks> Metraf, not sure about this, you might need to activate m2 in grub, "nvme_load=YES" https://www.dell.com/support/article/nl/nl/nlbsdt1/sln299303/loading-ubuntu-on-systems-using-pcie-m2-drives?lang=en
[16:35] <oerheks> or this is just needed for the installer
[16:36] <Metraf> EriC^^ I want to partition the disk
[16:36] <oerheks> can you write to it?
[16:36] <Metraf> oerheks oh so thats an option on grub
[16:36] <Metraf> ?*
[16:36] <Metraf> oerheks oh noes I cannot
[16:37] <oerheks> option, yes, but you need to set that manually, edit > sudo gedit /etc/default/grub  # and run sudo update-grub
[16:39] <Metraf> oerheks so I have to add "nvme_load=YES" to the file ?
[16:42] <Guest58478> Hi All
[16:44] <lotuspsychje> Guest58478: welcome, what can we do for you?
[16:44] <EriC^^> Metraf: did you try pressing "o" in gdisk? sudo gdisk /dev/xxxxx
[16:46] <nooneelse> trevorj: holy geez I got it fixed
[16:46] <nooneelse> I have used this approach in here
[16:46] <nooneelse> trevorj: https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/957814/linux/prime-and-prime-synchronization/post/5237042/#5237042
[16:46] <ledeni> auronandace, hi did you try to run 'hp-setup'
[16:47] <nooneelse> trevorj: now I can say I have one of the most stable and fast ubuntu since 2010 :(.... touching...
[16:47] <oerheks> nooneelse, good find
[16:47] <isokee> hi eveyrone, can someone recommend me a quiz software that runs on the command line?
[16:47] <Guest58478> @lotuspsychje    - Thanks, I was just checing the services.
[16:52] <Guest58478> Bye All!
[16:52] <Guest58478> exit
[16:52] <Guest58478> exit()
[16:52] <auronandace> ledeni: yes
[16:54] <Metraf> EriC^^ I did, and it doesn't work, I indeed think it has to do with bios
[16:55] <EriC^^> Metraf: perhaps
[16:55] <Metraf> I'll try and see
[16:55] <EriC^^> what does it say when you do, curious
[16:56] <Alejandro> i did it i have not installed pavucontrol
[16:56] <Alejandro> thank you
[17:17] <en1gma> no updates in 24hrs?
[17:19] <qwet> My apt is unuseable: I have a package linux-image-4.15.0-19-generic that is going to be removed but keeps failing because "dpkg-query: error: package 'grub-legacy-ec2' is not installed". Now I can't install anything
[17:19] <qwet> Can anyone help
[17:19] <qwet> (or remove anything)
[17:19] <qwet> ?
[17:19] <Metraf> EriC^^ it doesn't work... I can't access what is inside...
[17:19] <EriC^^> qwet: does 'sudo apt-get -f install' help?
[17:19] <en1gma> i dont even have any updates for 18.04 LTS Desktop x86_64 since 24hrs i think....maybe longer
[17:20] <EriC^^> Metraf: can you pastebin 'sudo parted -l' ?
[17:20] <qwet> EriC^^: No, same problem
[17:20] <en1gma> you would think there would be some updates after a brand new release
[17:20] <danrik> can I install ubuntu 18.04 but with bare gnome DE?
[17:20] <EriC^^> qwet: pastebin the whole error in paste.ubuntu.com
[17:21] <qwet> EriC^^: No can do. I can't install anything to do so
[17:21] <Metraf> https://pastebin.com/uMWPz0py EriC^^
[17:21] <EriC^^> qwet: command | nc termview.me 9999
[17:21] <qwet> EriC^^: What does that do?
[17:21] <aii_2> hi , i am trying to do kvm fs passthru
[17:21] <aii_2> but i get
[17:21] <aii_2> Failed to initialize fs-driver with id
[17:21] <aii_2> any idea ?
[17:22] <qwet> EriC^^: http://termview.me/d3ds
[17:22] <qwet> EriC^^: sorry, wait
[17:23] <qwet> EriC^^: http://termview.me/zscc
[17:23] <en1gma> when installing ubuntu 18.04LTS on the 1st day it was avail why does the installer install and then remove and then install (on minimal and full installations)?
[17:23] <en1gma> while allowing updates to install in background
[17:23] <en1gma> there is no newer software out yet it installs, removes and then installs again
[17:24] <dk_> m
[17:24] <EriC^^> qwet: what does 'dpkg -l | grep grub | nc termview.me 9999' give?
[17:26] <EriC^^> Metraf: try to remove the partition table manually and try again assuming that's the disk you're formatting, sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=4M count=2
[17:27] <qwet> EriC^^: http://termview.me/4qpd
[17:29] <EriC^^> qwet: try sudo dpkg -P --force-all linux-image-4.15.0-19-generic
[17:29] <Metraf> EriC^^ I still have no controll over it
[17:29] <pz_> hi, is there any way to downgrade Ubuntu 18.04 back t 17.10? :/
[17:30] <qwet> EriC^^: same error
[17:30] <EriC^^> Metraf: is it still giving the same error in parted?
[17:30] <auronandace> pz_: no, downgrading isn't supported. you would need to reinstall
[17:30] <DJones> pz_: No, you would have to reinstall
[17:30] <Metraf> Yes EriC^^
[17:30] <DJones> !downgrade  | pz_
[17:30] <EriC^^> qwet: type 'sudo mv /etc/kernel/postrm.d/x-grub-legacy-ec2 /x-grub-legacy-ec2
[17:30] <EriC^^> qwet: type 'sudo mv /etc/kernel/postrm.d/x-grub-legacy-ec2 /x-grub-legacy-ec2'
[17:31] <qwet> EriC^^: Is that safe?
[17:31] <EriC^^> qwet: yeah, it's the post removal script
[17:31] <pz_> that's a shame
[17:31] <EriC^^> actually, i think you could play by its rules
[17:31] <qwet> EriC^^: Yes, but normally post removal scripts do important things, especially for the bootloader
[17:32] <pz_> so you're telling me I'm basically screwed now? Not fun
[17:32] <EriC^^> qwet: try 'sudo mv /boot/grub/menu.lst /boot/grub/backup.menu.lst
[17:32] <EriC^^> qwet: i think it finds that legacy menu.lst and thinks you have grub-legacy installed
[17:32] <memoryleak> Hi. I've installed kvm and qemu and trying to use packer to build an image. I'm getting following error(s): "Could not access KVM kernel module: Permission denied" and "qemu-system-x86_64: failed to initialize KVM: Permission denied"
[17:32] <memoryleak> I'm in groups libvirt and libvirt-qemu
[17:33] <EriC^^> Metraf: does 'sudo fdisk /dev/sda' work?
[17:33] <pz_> back to M$ I suppose... thanks anyway :D
[17:33] <qwet> EriC^^: http://termview.me/bfkh
[17:34] <Draconiator> I installed Beaver on another hard drive I got from my older computrt, I like it.
[17:34] <EriC^^> qwet: i think it's safe to remove the post rm script, you're not using grub legacy but it seems to think you are and wants to do stuff in that context
[17:34] <pz_> I love it too, but I lost GPU HW acceleration
[17:34] <pz_> so it's kinda useless
[17:35] <Draconiator> I sorta wish they would use Star Wars inspired codenames...like "Wild Wampa" or "Sexy Sarlacc"
[17:36] <Nastya> Hi All! I've noticed 18.034 LTS release, but I am not sure if it is mature enough for smooth updating. Are there any tracker to see a scope of issues encountered on 18.04 release?
[17:36] <Metraf> EriC^^ 'Device does not contain a recognized partition table.Created a new DOS disklabel with disk identifier 0x7597498a.'
[17:36] <EriC^^> Metraf: aha nice
[17:36] <Metraf> Is it EriC^^ ?
[17:36] <Metraf> x)
[17:36] <EriC^^> Metraf: i think the backup gpt partition table is throwing it off, we can try using dd to nuke it as well
[17:37] <pz_> Nastya: I personally would recommend not to do it given my experience, but I don't know of any tracker that would list issues specific to 18.04
[17:37] <qwet> EriC^^: termview.me/io9p
[17:37] <Metraf> EriC^^ ok, well can you send me the command, I'll try it after launch
[17:37] <Metraf> Thanks already :)
[17:37] <sveinse> Draconiator: Doubt you'll find "Sexy Sarlacc" in family rated Star Wars nomeclature thou :D
[17:37] <brainwash> Nastya: read the release notes
[17:38] <Nastya> Thank you- will wait for a couple of months then, :)
[17:39] <Nastya> Canonnical adds critical issues list to the release notes? o_O
[17:39] <EriC^^> Metraf: i dont know it off the top of my head, if you type "man dd" and look for "skip" it should be there
[17:39] <danrik> ubuntu 18.04 with bare gnome - possible?
[17:40] <EriC^^> qwet: seems like more stuff is tangled up
[17:40] <qwet> EriC^^: I'm just going to reinstall
[17:40] <tiyteeze> danrik, just install gnome tweaks and remove ubuntu bar extension
[17:40] <qwet> EriC^^: This has been the most insane upgrade I've ever gone through
[17:40] <Draconiator> How do I disable access to my other hard drive?  Buntu sees it as SDA2 but I don't want to accidentally it rofl
[17:41] <pz_> unmount it
[17:42] <qwet> EriC^^: Thanks for your help
[17:42] <EriC^^> qwet: alright, no problem
[17:42] <EriC^^> Draconiator: you mean the other partition or hard disk?
[17:43] <Draconiator> Yeah
[17:43] <EriC^^> Draconiator: do you have 2 hdd or just 1?
[17:43] <pz_> OpenGL vendor string: VMware, Inc. - any ideas how to fix the GPU? :\
[17:44] <gpap> hello, i have problem with Files application in Ubuntu 18.04, can not snap at the right or left side
[17:45] <Draconiator> I have 2.  This older one with Ubuntu on it, and my main one with Win10 on it.
[17:46] <EriC^^> Draconiator: aha and you dont want the one with win10 to show in ubuntu at all?
[17:46] <Draconiator> I just need to not get it to show up in On This Computer in File Manager...or can you not do that?
[17:47] <Draconiator> Windows thinks the Ubuntu driove is corrupted anyway so I don't have to worry about the other way around.
[17:48] <tgm4883> Draconiator: you can do it in the disks app
[17:49] <tgm4883> Select the partition that you don't want to see, click the gears icon and uncheck "show in interface"
[17:49] <tgm4883> Gears icon > mount options
[17:49] <karpodiem> hey everyone. Is anyone using Chrome Remote Desktop in 18.04? I did a clean install and while I'm able to connect to the target, entering a password doesn't do anything
[17:51] <karpodiem> I have a feeling the X display manager needs some config since they changed back to the from Unity. But I dont know where to begin with that
[17:51] <lotuspsychje> gpap: can you explain that a bit please?
[17:52] <karpodiem> I asked the same question on Stack Overflow, no replies as of yet - https://askubuntu.com/questions/1028985/cant-advance-beyond-login-screen-with-chrome-remote-desktop-in-ubuntu-18-04
[17:56] <gpap> Lotuspsychje: yes, driving me crazy, every application can be dragged at the right or left side of desktop, aka snap, exept the file manager
[17:56] <Draconiator> It worked, thanks :)
[17:57] <lotuspsychje> gpap: you mean you cant move nautilus on other position on your dock?
[17:57] <tgm4883> gpap: weird, I'd think that any app that could be resized would work. I wouldn't think it would be app specific
[17:57] <tgm4883> lotuspsychje: I think he means dragging it to the right and it filling up the right side of his monitor
[17:58] <lotuspsychje> tgm4883: ah
[17:59] <gpap> lotuspsychje: yes the half right or left side, a common desktop effect, was working with live cd and when i installed with minimal installation gone, only with Files, everything else is working, weird
[17:59] <lotuspsychje> karpodiem: perhaps ask the maintainer of chrome rdp, or as alternative use remmina or teamviewer?
[18:00] <tgm4883> gpap: I don't even know where to start troubleshooting that. It works here on Budgie which is using the same app
[18:01] <gpap> tgm4883: happens now in front of me, i spent one hour trying to understand what happened
[18:01] <lotuspsychje> gpap: does moving work on your activities/desktops ?
[18:02] <gpap> yes everything else is working
[18:03] <lotuspsychje> gpap: are you on xorg or wayland?
[18:03] <gpap> lotuspsychie: yes xorg display server
[18:03] <lotuspsychje> gpap: could you test this in wayland plz?
[18:04] <gpap> lotuspsychie: yes i will logout and return to give the feedback
[18:06] <tgm4883> FWIW, I'm using x11
[18:06] <lotuspsychje> tgm4883: you got dual screen setup?
[18:06] <tgm4883> yep
[18:07] <lotuspsychje> tgm4883: hows your layout, mirror or single
[18:07] <tgm4883> I can snap it to any of the 4 edges
[18:07] <lotuspsychje> neat
[18:07] <tgm4883> By single, I assume you mean extended
[18:07] <lotuspsychje> yeah
[18:08] <gpap> lotuspsychie : back, same behavior
[18:08] <lotuspsychje> gpap: ok tnx for testing
[18:08] <tgm4883> gpap: fresh install or upgrade?
[18:08] <gpap> lotuspsychje : your wellcome
[18:09] <lotuspsychje> gpap: can you tail -f /var/log/syslog and launch nautilus from terminal and try again, perhaps we lucky to catch errors
[18:09] <gpap> tgm4883: yes fresh minimal install into a dell inspiron laptop, only ubuntu installed
[18:09] <lotuspsychje> gpap: and it worked in your live right?
[18:09] <gpap> yes yes
[18:09] <gpap> excactly
[18:09] <tgm4883> gpap: is your home directory from a previous install?
[18:09] <tgm4883> or did you copy in some conf files?
[18:10] <lotuspsychje> tgm4883 gpap perhaps some minimal thing not installed?
[18:10] <gpap> thm4883: nothing
[18:10] <gpap> formating and minimal installation
[18:10] <lotuspsychje> not sure wich package responsible for that
[18:10] <tgm4883> lotuspsychje: I doubt it, it works for other apps
[18:10] <lotuspsychje> tgm4883: but your setup is not minimal right?
[18:11] <tgm4883> lotuspsychje: gpap said it works for his other apps
[18:11] <lotuspsychje> tgm4883: yeah good point
[18:11] <lotuspsychje> so must be nautilus related somehow?
[18:12] <lotuspsychje> gpap: another test perhaps could be the guest account, to closeout if its user related
[18:12] <tgm4883> I suppose
[18:12] <gpap> lotuspsychje: fresh installation after formating, external monitor, lid closed, same as when i run the live cd, in which snapping of Files application was workig
[18:12] <tgm4883> Yea guest/2nd account worth testing
[18:13] <tgm4883> I'm seeing how to disable it system wide, but not application specific
[18:14] <gpap> tgm4883: lets first watch the logs but with witch server omg
[18:14] <lotuspsychje> dconf-editor doesnt show me any settings that could block
[18:14] <lotuspsychje> in nautilus..
[18:15] <absentabyss> guys I'm trying to install ubuntu 18.04 on an hp probook 450 g4 from a live usb, the live install freezes at installation options before even beginning the proper installation. disabling secure-boot among other things but to no avail. it freezes at different parts though, partition was as far as it could get but it wouldn't read the hdd
[18:15] <lovetruth> hello :)
[18:16] <lovetruth> I'm trying to install some good drivers (even if proprietary) for Ubuntu 16.04, for the graphics card Radeon HD 6320 ...
[18:16] <lovetruth> and just seems to be not working...
[18:16] <absentabyss> "...I tried disabling secure-boot..."*
[18:17] <lotuspsychje> absentabyss: are you gonna single install?
[18:17] <Zteam> Hi, I just reinstalled Ubuntu, I have some steam games on another harddrive, that I want to create menu items for, I can't find any options for that in Steam, do I really need to reinstall the games to do that
[18:17] <absentabyss> lotuspsychje: dualboot
[18:17] <absentabyss> other os is windows 10
[18:17] <lotuspsychje> !uefi | absentabyss start here
[18:18] <gpap> lotuspsychie: nothing into the logs wayland still
[18:18] <lotuspsychje> gpap: ok im out of ideas for this, consider a new !bug ?
[18:19] <gpap> lotuspsychie: uid=1000 pid=7278 comm="/usr/bin/nautilus --gapplication-service " label="unconfined"
[18:19] <gpap> maybe?
[18:19] <lotuspsychje> gpap: perhaps last test another user/guest ?
[18:19] <tgm4883> gpap: seems like grasping at straws
[18:20] <lotuspsychje> gpap: i found in dconf-editor org/gnome/shell/window-switcher but not sure if its relevant
[18:20] <lotuspsychje> gpap: current workspace only is enabled here
[18:21] <gpap> tgm4883:i will reinstall with normal installation, my system is fresh so easy
[18:21] <tgm4883> gpap: I'm not sure how that would be easier than testing a second user first
[18:21] <lotuspsychje> gpap: that would not make sense, why all other apps work and nautilus dont
[18:22] <tgm4883> gpap: nor do I see how a minimal install would do this
[18:22] <brainwash> Zteam: not even via right click on the game entry in the list?
[18:22] <nostrora> Hi! how can i install version 17.03.2 in ubuntu ?
[18:22] <lotuspsychje> nostrora: that version does not exist
[18:23] <tgm4883> nostrora: 17.03.2 of what?
[18:23] <ioria> gpap,   can you paste  dpkg -l | grep nautilus
[18:23] <gpap> lotuspsychie: tgm5883: many years i install linux, i have seen very strange behaviors
[18:23] <nostrora> oh sorry... i mean Docker. where i can find this version for ubuntu
[18:23] <gpap> lorie: i will
[18:23] <Zteam> brainwash, nope, that allows to create a desktop entry, but not for menu item in the gnome menu
[18:23] <lotuspsychje> nostrora: we reccomend using package versions, specific for your ubuntu versions, or try snaps or !backports
[18:24] <brainwash> lovetruth: the best driver is already installed by default
[18:24] <kostkon> nostrora, you want that specific version?
[18:24] <nostrora> kostkon: yes, for Rancher
[18:24] <tgm4883> nostrora: did you check https://docs.docker.com/install/linux/docker-ce/ubuntu/
[18:24] <lovetruth> brainwash: I tried to install fglrx... but errored out... so no I'm back to that...
[18:24] <nostrora> tgm4883: yes, there is no the version i want
[18:24] <lovetruth> but I want to use OpenGL and stuff like that...
[18:24] <brainwash> Zteam: I guess you could just move that one over to ~/.local/share/applications/
[18:24] <gpap> lorie: https://paste.gnome.org/psyzeibh1
[18:25] <nostrora> There is only :  docker-ce | 18.03.1~ce-0~ubuntu | https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu artful/stable amd64 Packages  docker-ce | 18.03.0~ce-0~ubuntu | https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu artful/stable amd64 Packages  docker-ce | 17.12.1~ce-0~ubuntu | https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu artful/stable amd64 Packages  docker-ce | 17.12.0~ce-0~ubuntu | https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu artful/stable amd64 Packages
[18:25] <lovetruth> so... is it there any fglrx replacement in ubuntu 16.04 for pre-GCN AMD Radeon cards?...
[18:25] <brainwash> lovetruth: fglrx is not supported anymore
[18:25] <lovetruth> like for the HD 6320 card...
[18:25] <brainwash> the replacement is the open source driver "radeon"
[18:25] <Zteam> brainwash, okey, will try that later, thanks :-)
[18:26] <lovetruth> if I really want OpenGL... what would you recommend?... compiling from source, or?...
[18:26] <tgm4883> nostrora: then you would need to compile it
[18:26] <brainwash> lovetruth: opengl support is provided via mesa
[18:26] <ioria> gpap,  did you manually installed nautilus-extension-gnome-terminal ?
[18:26] <brainwash> lovetruth: can you tell us how you test the hardware?
[18:26] <tgm4883> nostrora: although to be honest. Needing a specific version of docker seems in contrary to the entire point of docker
[18:26] <gpap> ioria: nop
[18:27] <lovetruth> brainwash: I just run MathLAB and Science-related software
[18:27] <brainwash> lovetruth: and it tells you that something is missing? check the output of "glxinfo | grep render"
[18:27] <liya> hello
[18:28] <lotuspsychje> liya: welcome, how can we help you
[18:28] <lovetruth> yes, it said that some part of OpenGL is missing...
[18:28] <liya> well.. can i know if ubuntu has vulkan drivers?
[18:29] <brainwash> lovetruth: best to share the exact error message (screenshot or pastebin)
[18:30] <brainwash> liya: run "vulkaninfo" in a terminal window
[18:30] <tgm4883> !info libvulkan1
[18:30] <liya> thanks
[18:30] <ioria> gpap,  well, you could try with  compizconfig-settings-manager  -> window management -> grid plugin ( or such)
[18:32] <Zteam> lovetruth, if you need to use another radeon driver than the ones ubuntu is providing you can try from this ppa https://launchpad.net/~paulo-miguel-dias/+archive/ubuntu/pkppa
[18:32] <gpap> ioria: ok i ll wanna try it
[18:32] <sveinse> regarding docker: with 18.04 there are now methods of installing docker: either via apt or via snap. Snap is a kind of jail, isn't it? So where will the docker containers be stored when using the snap version?
[18:33] <Paradox55> tomreyn: If you're still here I had to use acpi=off in grub no idea why
[18:33] <Zteam> lovetruth, or this one: https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa but keep in mind ppas are unsupported here
[18:33] <ioria> gpap, if  it asks you  to replace some settings, say 'yes' (resolve conflicts)
[18:34] <gpap> ioria: i need to install this, doesn't exists into my software
[18:34] <Paradox55> I think 18.04 is the best Ubuntu to date.
[18:34] <Paradox55> especially for gaming
[18:34] <ioria> gpap, yes ; and run ccsm after
[18:35] <lovetruth> thanks Zteam . Was thinking to try the paulo miguel dias one... :)
[18:35] <lovetruth> ah, the second is for nvidia, anyway, it seems... :)
[18:36] <Apachez> any hints on how to verify if there exists an active maintainer for a specific ubuntu package? In this case the casper package (which is a core functionality)
[18:36] <Zteam> lovetruth, no problem, I dont't own a radeon card but the first ppa is recommended for radeon users who likes gaming so I guess it should provide openGL
[18:36] <tgm4883> Apachez: https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/casper
[18:37] <maxcell_> why 18.04 doesn't have others nvidia prop. drivers options to install/ only 390
[18:38] <tomreyn> Paradox55: hmm that's quite limiting especially if you carry this laptop around with you. usually when you have to use this parameter it's due to bios bugs. but maybe you won't need to use acpi=off once the installation is complete.
[18:38] <GodOfSea> Hii
[18:38] <tgm4883> maxcell_: it's detecting what your card supports I guess. 18.04 does have other drivers available
[18:38] <Zteam> lovetruth, ops, my mistake, before installing anything from that ppa, be sure to install ppa-purge it lets you revert any packages from a ppa, and reinstall the original version
[18:38] <maxcell_> tgm4883, i need to do a downgrade from 390
[18:39] <maxcell_> like 375
[18:39] <maxcell_> or 384
[18:39] <ioria> gpap, wait, are you on 18.04 ?
[18:39] <snowflake> hello <3
[18:39] <gpap> ioria: already ticked, the grid plugin
[18:39] <GodOfSea> I have installed Plank dock in 18.04 , it works well but I cant seem to figure out how to disable or remove the ubuntu dock thats there by default .
[18:39] <maxcell_> tgm4883, do you know if i have this option oni 18.04/
[18:39] <snowflake> guys i wanna ask about something please, i wanna install java for android studio
[18:39] <gpap> ioria: yes
[18:39] <snowflake> should i install default-jre or specific version
[18:40] <tgm4883> maxcell_: well you could install the package you want with apt
[18:40] <lovetruth> Zteam: I've already installed your ppa... :)
[18:40] <tgm4883> maxcell_: rather than using the driver picker
[18:40] <lovetruth> installed now the ppa-purge, anyway...
[18:40] <maxcell_> tgm4883, only if it is on the repository
[18:40] <ioria> gpap, i thought you where on 16.04 ... i don't think gnome-shell works with compiz
[18:40] <tgm4883> maxcell_: it is. Both 375 and 384 are in the repo
[18:40] <maxcell_> tgm4883, it wont get automatically upgraded if i apt-get dist-upgrade/
[18:41] <GodOfSea> Anyone knows how to I remove the default dock ?
[18:41] <gpap> ioria: i will reinstall with normal installation this time and i will return for the feedback, thanks for the excellent supporting
[18:41] <tgm4883> maxcell_: no. 390 isn't an upgrade for 384 or 375
[18:41] <tgm4883> maxcell_: you could also try 'sudo ubuntu-drivers list' to see if anything else spits out
[18:41] <ioria> gpap,  you're welcome
[18:41] <maxcell_> tgm4883, thank you very much
[18:42] <tgm4883> but I think that just shows the same thing that the additional drivers gui does
[18:42] <maxcell_> tgm4883, yes like you can chose between them
[18:42] <kostkon> snowflake, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-make
[18:43] <GodOfSea> Well hello anyone ?
[18:43] <tgm4883> !patience | GodOfSea
[18:43] <lovetruth> gonna reboot to test it :)
[18:43] <lovetruth> thanks everyone!... have a good evening!... :)
[18:44] <lovetruth> if I don't come back tonight to this channel -> it obviously worked Zteam's solution :) have a great time everyone and many many thanks
[18:44] <tgm4883> Running 18.04, looking for a program to let me record from 2 sound devices at the same time
[18:44] <GodOfSea> alright tgm4883 and ubottu :)
[18:44] <snowflake> kostkon, Thanks mate <3
[18:44] <snowflake> @kostkon, Thanks mate <3
[18:44] <kostkon> snowflake, np²
[19:00] <phoenix_firebrd> is upgrading from 17.10 to 18.04 possible?
[19:02] <ali_> hello
[19:02] <evulish> phoenix_firebrd: do-release-upgrade -d
[19:04] <tgm4883> evulish: shouldn't need the -d
[19:04] <SimonNL> !ops
[19:04] <erio> hello
[19:04] <phoenix_firebrd> evulish: but -d is for updating to a development release?
[19:04] <erio> does someone knows how to translate ShellExecute to linux ?
[19:04] <erio> https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/440623/shellexecute-equivalent-for-linux-cpp
[19:04] <SimonNL> I'm so sorry thought that was for something else
[19:04] <tgm4883> phoenix_firebrd: sort of. It's for bypassing the approved upgrade path
[19:05] <evulish> heh, habit
[19:05] <ali_> do you guys know why the gnome-keyring is so bad implemented? and why it's not removed from Ubuntu?
[19:05] <phoenix_firebrd> tgm4883: when will the upgrade channel be enabled?
[19:06] <MonkeyDust> ali_  this channel is not for opinions and discussion
[19:06] <SimonNL> won't happen again for sure
[19:06] <tgm4883> phoenix_firebrd: I believe they are still working out some issuess. I would believe soon, maybbe next week somettime
[19:06] <popey> Probably next week
[19:06] <phoenix_firebrd> tgm4883: oh
[19:07] <ali_> MonkeyDust: a nice channel then
[19:07] <phoenix_firebrd> tgm4883: next week.... too bad
[19:07] <sunrunner20> is there a way to have ubuntu email me when a package has a security update?
[19:07] <phoenix_firebrd> tgm4883: but its ok if the bug are fixed, I can wait
[19:08] <gpap> ioria: tgm4883:i am back, same behavior with new installation, just to correct my self, the weird nautilus behavior happened and with the live cd, i was confused with my desktop, were i tested also the l ive cd
[19:09] <tgm4883> gpap: did you verify your install media after downloading it? That's a weird bug
[19:09] <ioria> gpap,  and just with nautilus ...
[19:10] <thinky> hello
[19:10] <thinky> i installed steam via store app but it doesnt start
[19:10] <thinky> what can be the problem
[19:10] <thinky> ?
[19:10] <tgm4883> sunrunner20: I don't know of an email method, but you could subscribe to the feed https://usn.ubuntu.com/
[19:10] <tgm4883> thinky: try opening it from the command line and look for errors
[19:11] <gpap> loria : tgm4883: i have downloaded the disk from the greek university servers, by the way i will format the usb and make it again
[19:12] <tgm4883> gpap: but did you verify the md5sum of the ISO?
[19:12] <thinky> how can i open steam in command line?
[19:12] <tgm4883> thinky: run 'steam'
[19:12] <gpap> i don't remember after so many steps, maby not
[19:12] <thinky> thx
[19:12] <tgm4883> gpap: worth checking
[19:12] <ioria> gpap,  and how did you do the usb stick  ?
[19:13] <thinky> doesnt work
[19:14] <gpap> loria: windisk manager, windows 10 at the same softaware i have burned decades flash usb and never happened a mistake
[19:14] <thinky> Command 'run' not found, did you mean:
[19:15] <ioria> gpap, if you are on windows, let's try    rufus  https://rufus.akeo.ie/?locale
[19:15] <tgm4883> thinky: just 'steam'
[19:15] <tgm4883> hence the quotes
[19:15] <gpap> tgm4883:win32diskmanager *

[19:16] <gpap> loria: ok i will
[19:18] <sunrunner20> tgm4883, seems like I'll get a lot of spam not related to the machine I'm using currently from that list :(
[19:18] <sunrunner20> but thanks for the suggestion
[19:18] <newdimension> I just upgrade to Ubuntu 18 from 16. Is there a shortcut to lunch an application from favorites menu? (dock)
[19:18] <newdimension> *launch
[19:18] <tgm4883> sunrunner20: You could setup something on the box to email you on updates I suppose
[19:19] <sunrunner20> yea I think I'm going to have to run a cron job that runs (from a quick google apt-get upgrade -s | grep -i security) and email me the contents
[19:20] <tgm4883> thinky: try 'LIBGL_DRI3_DISABLE=1 steam'
[19:20] <tgm4883> thinky: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/4816
[19:22] <tgm4883> sunrunner20: maybe look into apticron
[19:22] <tgm4883> sunrunner20: or https://danielmiessler.com/blog/get-notified-ubuntu-box-security-updates/
[19:25] <thinky> does installing an app from store add ppa automatic?
[19:26] <thinky> or still should i add ppa?
[19:26] <thinky> manually on command line?
[19:26] <popey> thinky: which app?
[19:26] <thinky> any app exists in store
[19:26] <thinky> skype  spotify ..etc
[19:26] <thinky> vlc player
[19:26] <popey> The only application I know of off the top of my head which adds a ppa is google chrome
[19:26] <popey> no, they dont
[19:26] <popey> they come from the snap store
[19:26] <Sam_S3pi0L> store doesn't add ppa.
[19:26] <sunrunner20> what's ppa?
[19:26] <popey> !ppa | sunrunner20
[19:27] <sunrunner20> ah
[19:27] <popey> thinky: snaps come from the snap store, and will get automatically updated when the developer pushes updates to the store (a bit like android/ios)
[19:27] <thinky> what about the .deb files i downloaded and installed manually?
[19:27] <thinky> popey: to be honest i dont like that store app :S
[19:27] <popey> thinky: debs you install manually don't get updated generally, unless a deb of the same name is in a repo
[19:27] <thinky> i prefer command line always
[19:27] <Sam_S3pi0L> independently developed apps for ubuntu or linux derivatives often use ppa if they cannot get on a repository, or they like control of the downstream.
[19:27] <popey> thinky: fair enough, you can "snap install spotify" if you prefer the command line
[19:28] <thinky> i installed spotify directly from store
[19:28] <thinky> isnt it same thing?
[19:28] <popey> yes
[19:28] <popey> i was just pointing out the command line tool, as you said you didnt like the gui store
[19:28] <thinky> i would like to update apps in command line
[19:28] <thinky> i dont like to check multiple place for updates
[19:28] <popey> if they're snaps "snap refresh",
[19:28] <popey> you don't need to
[19:29] <Sam_S3pi0L> thinky, sudo apt update && apt upgrade
[19:29] <popey> snaps automatically refresh
[19:29] <thinky> apt update && apt full-upgrade?
[19:29] <thinky> i usually do full-upgrade
[19:30] <thinky> what s the best app to play mp3 and other music files like itunes?
[19:30] <thinky> or windows media player?
[19:30] <thinky> in ubuntu
[19:30] <Sam_S3pi0L> banshee
[19:30] <popey> spotify :)
[19:30] <Sam_S3pi0L> or vlc
[19:30] <thinky> spotify doesnt play external mp3 files
[19:31] <popey> yes it does
[19:31] <thinky> i use vlc for movies
[19:31] <thinky> popey: does it really? O.o
[19:31] <thinky> i didnt know that
[19:31] <popey> Yes :)
[19:31] <thinky> so i am paying it for nothing :p
[19:31] <Sam_S3pi0L> don't you get hulu too with spotify now?
[19:32] <thinky> nope
[19:32] <kostkon> Sam_S3pi0L, maybe it's the other way around
[19:32] <thinky> i installed 18.04 today with minimal installation
[19:32] <thinky> so i need to install some necessary apps manually
[19:32] <kostkon> thinky, like?
[19:33] <Sam_S3pi0L> get spotify with hulu?
[19:33] <thinky> music player thunderbird libreoffice ...etc
[19:33] <thinky> steam
[19:33] <thinky> vlc player
[19:33] <kostkon> Sam_S3pi0L, could be
[19:33] <thinky> virtualbox
[19:33] <popey> thinky: we don't need a full list of your favourite apps, thanks :)
[19:33] <thinky> now how can i install virtualbox with ppa ?
[19:33] <popey> thinky: it's in the archive.
[19:33] <thinky> lol popey  he asked :p
[19:34] <thinky> popey:  where? cant see it
[19:34] <popey> thinky: apt install virtualbox
[19:34] <popey> virtualbox-qt might be the frontend package
[19:34] <thinky> i wanna add ppa too for automatic updates
[19:34] <popey> if there is one, I'm sure you can find it
[19:35] <thinky> not sure if there is
[19:37] <Sam_S3pi0L> thinky, https://websetnet.net/install-virtualbox-ppa-ubuntu-1604/
[19:37] <thinky> thx Sam_S3pi0L
[19:38] <Sam_S3pi0L> welcome
[19:40] <NERD-k> how to change DPI in Ubuntu 18.04?
[19:40] <Sam_S3pi0L> dpi of a printer? or do you want to change the resolution of a monitor?
[19:41] <luxio> There's a bug where when I boot up with my first monitor turned on, and then turn my second monitor on after I've booted up, the second monitor comes on but the first monitor is just a black screen
[19:41] <luxio> Is this a documented bug?
[19:42] <NERD-k> Sam_S3pi0L, change the resolution of a monitor
[19:43] <Sam_S3pi0L> Nerd-k, you can do it from the settings->display menu in your applications menu
[19:44] <Sam_S3pi0L> luxio, you had multiple displays set up before on this system? Have you upgraded the system recently?
[19:47] <NERD-k> Sam_S3pi0L, Emmm, I used Gnome Tweaks to changed the fonts(I see the Universal Access is changed), although the text is bigger, but it not beautiful.
[19:48] <yaku> hi i am trying to install matlab-support and it asks for the directory with the executable
[19:49] <yaku> i copypasted the directory i use to run it from terminal but the support installer says no executable found there
[19:52] <alive876> hi guys, can I and how do i change the install directory using gdebi? I want to install to en external ssd  thanks
[19:53] <luxio> Sam_S3pi0L: I'm running 18.04
[19:53] <luxio> fresh install
[19:53] <luxio> always had these 2
[19:54] <Sam_S3pi0L> luxio, check out settings->display and see if both monitors show up, then see if you have multiple monitors enabled.
[19:55] <luxio> Sam_S3pi0L: I'm rebooted since I couldn't do anything with only the right monitor on
[19:55] <luxio> both monitors show up right now
[19:55] <Sam_S3pi0L> luxio, wow, that was fortuitous.
[19:56] <Sam_S3pi0L> nerd-k, see if this helps you: http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2017/04/custom-screen-resolution-ubuntu-desktop/
[19:57] <Sam_S3pi0L> luxio, are you having to do anything extra to enable them at start-up?
[19:57] <luxio> no
[19:58] <NERD-k> Sam_S3pi0L, Thanks
[19:59] <Sam_S3pi0L> luxio, do they both work after another reboot?
[19:59] <Sam_S3pi0L> You are welcome Nerd-K
[20:00] <thinky> hi again
[20:00] <tgm4883> asdfqqq:q
[20:00] <tgm4883> htop
[20:00] <thinky> is there a way to put the icons in top bar ?
[20:00] <thinky> in 18.04
[20:00] <kostkon> tgm4883, wrong window
[20:00] <thinky> actually i want top bar look like same in 16.04
[20:00] <tgm4883> kostkon: actually some weird terrible lag
[20:00] <kostkon> tgm4883, og
[20:00] <kostkon> oh*
[20:01] <tgm4883> kostkon: yea, not making me too happy
[20:01] <kostkon> tgm4883, i can understand
[20:01] <luxio> Sam_S3pi0L: yes
[20:03] <Apachez> tgm4883: yes and look at the amount of bugs that noone from canonical seems to care about? https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/casper/+bugs
[20:03] <Apachez> its like casper is abandoned even if its a core functionality of ubuntu
[20:04] <tgm4883> Apachez: because of 108 bugs listed?
[20:04] <rdias002> hey there, i have ubuntu 18.04, how do i disable my pointer when typing?
[20:05] <yaku> how do i make the text bigger without cutting it off
[20:06] <yaku> whenever i change the scale in universal access irc messages are cut off halfway
[20:06] <Sam_S3pi0L> rdias002, syndaemon -i 1 -K -d
[20:06] <tgm4883> Apachez: I mean, that seems a bit silly considering there's over 400 that are fixed. 45 of those casper bugs are still marked new, I didn't bother checking how long ago they've been added. That said, you asked to find the maintainer, which I linked you to and this isn't really a support question so if you'd like we can move this to #ubuntu-discuss
[20:07] <rdias002> Sam_S3pi0L, it said this: No synaptics properties on device 'SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad'.
[20:07] <Sam_S3pi0L> rdias002, you on a box or a laptop?
[20:08] <rdias002> Sam_S3pi0L, laptop
[20:11] <Sam_S3pi0L> rdias002, do you have synatpics touchpad installed?
[20:12] <Sam_S3pi0L> see if there is an option in settings->mouse/touchpad to disable it while typing.
[20:12] <Apachez> tgm4883: I added at least one for more than one year ago
[20:12] <rdias002> Sam_S3pi0L, nope its  not there, i guess its not there since 16.04
[20:12] <Apachez> its still marked "new"
[20:13] <tgm4883> Apachez: ok, I'm still not sure what you want from me here
[20:13] <Sam_S3pi0L> rdias002, drats
[20:13] <Apachez> tgm4883: well Im asking "Ubuntu core developers" in general, assuming one or more most likely exists in here :)
[20:13] <Sam_S3pi0L> rdias002, try adding the snipet to your startup applications, reboot and see if that works? otherwise I'm outta ideas right now.
[20:13] <tgm4883> Apachez: have you thought about emailing them?
[20:13] <Apachez> and just curious about how a core component seems to be abandonded
[20:14] <Apachez> tgm4883: na, expecting them to read the bug list once they got some time
[20:14] <ivo_> Hey guys, there is a bug with snaps, where if I move the hom efolder on a different disk apps don't work. Is this a known limitation?
[20:14] <popey> Apachez: lack of developer time. We have a lot to do and too few developers. Simple as that
[20:14] <rdias002> Sam_S3pi0L, cool thanks
[20:14] <Apachez> tgm4883: specially when I already sent in a working patch :P
[20:14] <yaku> hi i'm trying to install matlab-support and my matlab executes from /usr/local/MATLAB/R2017b/bin/glnxa64
[20:15] <popey> Apachez: the developers hang out in #ubuntu-devel, if you ping them during the working week with the bug/patch, they're more likely to help than in here
[20:15] <yaku> but when i type this into matlab-support it says no executables found
[20:15] <rdias002> btw, i am a newbie to open source environment. i am interested in contributing to one. where and how do i begin?
[20:15] <Apachez> popey: thanks
[20:15] <rdias002> and what skills would i need to do so?
[20:16] <kostkon> yaku, are you typing the correct path?
[20:16] <yaku> i copied and pasted it
[20:16] <kostkon> yaku, this? '/usr/local/MATLAB/R2017b/bin/'
[20:20] <Bashing-om> !contribute | rdias002
[20:21] <rdias002> cool, thanks
[20:29] <titou> after upgrading to the latest ubuntu version my laptop failed to stay into sleep mode.. it goes to sleep mode and wake it up and go into sleep mode and again and again
[20:30] <phoenix_firebrd> titou: automatically?
[20:31] <titou> yes
[20:31] <titou> the screen stays off but I can hear the fan stopped and working again for some seconds then stop etc.
[20:31] <phoenix_firebrd> titou: how do you know it goes to sleep?\
[20:31] <phoenix_firebrd> ok
[20:32] <titou> I catched journalctl information when I tried to put it into sleep mode and I can see that it goes to sleep and resume and sleep and resume
[20:32] <phoenix_firebrd> titou: are you able to access bios?
[20:32] <titou> yes I can
[20:32] <titou> notice that I had no problem with ubuntu 17..
[20:33] <phoenix_firebrd> titou: you are able to boot and login into ubuntu?
[20:33] <titou> yes ubuntu works
[20:33] <titou> the only thing is that it cannot stay into sleep mode
[20:33] <titou> it will drain my battery :(
[20:35] <phoenix_firebrd> titou: you are on a laptop right?
[20:35] <titou> yes
[20:35] <phoenix_firebrd> titou: do you use an external mouse?
[20:35] <titou> no
[20:35] <phoenix_firebrd> titou: can you check the touchpad sensitivity settings
[20:35] <esr1> Just upgradee to 18.04, want to run i3, can't finfd the session chooser in gdm3.  Where is it hiding>
[20:37] <phoenix_firebrd> brb
[20:38] <bjgbob> esr1: click on your username, then it's the cog under the password box
[20:38] <titou> phoenix_firebrd: what do you mean ?
[20:38] <titou> how can I get the event which wake it up?
[20:39] <bjgbob> I'm trying to change my time settings in a gnome flashback session, and the panel clock isn't respecting the 12/24 hour setting.  There's also no way to add a second time zone as in older versions
[20:39] <esr1> bjgbob: Tried that.  It gives me two Ubuntu choice and no i3, even though I have an i3 config in /usr/share/xsessions.
[20:40] <esr1> I concluded that whatever that is, it's not behaaving much like a session chooserr. :-)
[20:40] <bjgbob> esr1: can you post the config?
[20:40] <esr1> bjgbob: Yes.
[20:40] <esr1> Wait.
[20:40] <bjgbob> I just went through a similar issue yesterday with trying to get gnome-session-flashback working
[20:43] <esr1> bjgbob: http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/m69xtR6xtf/
[20:44] <esr1> That is /usr/share/xsessions/i3.desktop
[20:45] <esr1> Uh oh.  Could it be linee 7?
[20:45] <esr1> more *
[20:45] <brainwash> titou: journalctl does not tell you reason for the wakeups?
[20:46] <bjgbob> esr1: try Type=Xsession instead of Type-Application
[20:46] <bjgbob> actually on second thought that shouldn't affect it
[20:46] <bjgbob> hm
[20:46] <titou> brainwash: I'm not sure to find the reason into the log no
[20:47] <brainwash> titou: can you pastebin the relevant lines?
[20:47] <esr1> bjgbob: YEaah, the ones in place hava Application too.
[20:48] <esr1> bjgbob: My suspicion now falls on line 7, whicjh refers to lightdm
[20:49] <esr1> Oh but that's an X- line. Esxtension.  Hmmm.
[20:51] <esr1> The thing that's bothering me is this.  Neither of the application files in there befgore I installed i3 hasve any textr in them that looks like what I see in the chooser.  No references to Wayland.
[20:52] <bjgbob> esr1: the only thing that it seems to be missing compared to the xsession configs on my 18.04 machine is that it doesn't have a `X-Ubuntu-Gettext-Domain` line
[20:52] <bjgbob> but idk what you should put for it if you add one
[20:54] <esr1> bjgbob: I'll try monkery-copying what's in the others, I'm not proud.  I doubt that's the problem, though./
[20:54] <esr1> bjgbob: Have to log out now to test.  Back soon.
[20:54] <bjgbob> esr1: just to make sure, you do actually have i3 installed and have restarted gdm since installing it, right?
[20:54] <bjgbob> whoops, didn't catch him in time
[20:56] <titou> brainwash: https://pastebin.com/eNk7mjpR
[20:59] <bjgbob> anyone got any suggestions on what to do about my clock issue?
[21:02] <phoenix_firebrd> bjgbob: what is the issue?
[21:02] <crimson_king> fstrim is not present at /etc/cron.weekly since 18.04. Is this intentional?
[21:04] <TJ-> crimson_king: it's moved to systemd, see /lib/systemd/system/fstrim.timer
[21:04] <crimson_king> TJ-, all right
[21:06] <crimson_king> Right, it's enabled by default.
[21:09] <brainwash> titou: not quite sure. did you try to reproduce this issue when logged into a graphical session, meaning while the login screen is active?
[21:09] <titou> brainwash: I just closed my laptop.. the session was active before
[21:09] <bjgbob> esr1: any luck?
[21:12] <brainwash> titou: do you have a /var/log/pm-suspend.log ?
[21:13] <titou> nop..
[21:14] <danrik> do u know of any note taking application with sync and android client?
[21:15] <brainwash> titou: I would try to reproduce the issue with a live session (booting from the ubuntu iso)
[21:16] <brainwash> titou: to see if it's a general issue with your hardware, or something specific with your ubuntu setup
[21:17] <titou> brainwash: the only thing I can tell you is that before I upgrade ubuntu I had absolutely no problem with it
[21:18] <brainwash> right. it could be a regression in the linux kernel shipped by ubuntu 18.04
[21:22] <luxio> does Ubuntu 18 use its own emoji set?
[21:22] <luxio> or is it licensed from someone?
[21:25] <daniel__> hello :)
[21:26] <bjgbob> I'm trying to change my time settings in a gnome flashback session, and the panel clock isn't respecting the 12/24 hour setting.  There's also no way to add a second time zone as in older versions.  Any suggestions?

[21:28] <luxio> MonkeyDust: "Other noteworthy changes in Ubuntu 18.04 LTS include support for color emoji in most apps"
[21:28] <luxio> doesn't really answer my question
[21:29] <MonkeyDust> luxio  maybe this does    Ubuntu is actually using Google’s Noto Color Emoji font

[21:35] <zzUL> Hi, why my system create multiple files recently-used.xbel? I have various recently-used.xbel.XXXXXX files.
[21:38] <zzUL> Hi, why my system create multiple files recently-used.xbel? I have various recently-used.xbel.XXXXXX files.
[21:42] <MENOOO> hi
[21:43] <zzUL> Hi, why my system create multiple files recently-used.xbel? I have various recently-used.xbel.XXXXXX files.
[21:43] <MENOOO> Can someone help please !!!
[21:46] <rypervenche> !ask | MENOOO
[21:46] <phoenix_firebrd> rypervenche: is there a virtual keyboard that I can use
[21:46] <phoenix_firebrd> rypervenche:  in kde 4.x i was using the keyboard widget, then after the widget was depreciated, I started using the app iok. now its gone from the repositories after updating to 18.04. Is there any other replacement?
[21:48] <zzUL> recently-used.xbel.NUI7HZ
[21:48] <zzUL> Hi, why my system create multiples files recently-used.xbel? I have various recently-used.xbel.XXXXXX files.
[21:49] <rypervenche> zzUL: Patience. Are you using Pidgin?
[21:49] <zzUL> rypervenche: no
[21:50] <rypervenche> zzUL: They answered you in #debian. Please don't cross-post.
[21:50] <MENOOO> I accidently  "sudo rm -r *  " in my home directory and I lost very important data like photos and documents,is there a way for me to recover my lost data,  tell me what is the most guaranteed way to recover my data PLEASE
[21:53] <rypervenche> MENOOO: Stop using the system and use either a live CD or another machine. What kind of file system is it?
[21:53] <MENOOO> I was trying to clean the /tmp directory but i forgot to "cd /tmp/  " so i did "sudo pwn" and then "sudo rm -r * "  and was shocked when i lost my actual Home files and directories !
[21:54] <robbins> MENOOO: you can try testdisk, might be worth a shot. but yeah, boot it to a live cd right away.
[21:55] <rypervenche> MENOOO: Yeah, using * is a bad idea. This will be a good lesson.
[21:55] <MENOOO> rypervenche: Can i use guest session of the system ?
[21:55] <leftyfb> MENOOO: restore from backup
[21:55] <rypervenche> MENOOO: No, use a liveCD or a different machine. Stop using the disk as soon as possible.
[21:55] <phoenix_firebrd> MENOOO: if you know to use testdisk then use that, else use photorec
[21:55] <rypervenche> MENOOO: What kind of file system is this? "df -hT will show you"
[21:56] <rypervenche> MENOOO: extundelete might work, if not testdisk can work, last resort is photorec, which doesn't keep metadata unfortunately, so file names will be lost.
[21:57] <rypervenche> MENOOO: Moving forward, I recommend getting a backup system in place.
[21:57] <rypervenche> If you care about this data so much.
[21:57] <kostkon> MENOOO, how much data are we talking about
[21:57] <leftyfb> data that isn't backed up isn't important
[21:58] <rypervenche> leftyfb: +1
[21:59] <MENOOO> kostkon ; about 30gb
[22:00] <leftyfb> uh
[22:00] <kostkon> MENOOO, not too much not too little somewhere in between
[22:00] <leftyfb> 30gb doesn't delete in the blink of an eye
[22:00] <leftyfb> you must have let it go for quite a bit of time
[22:00] <kostkon> MENOOO, as leftyfb said as you sure it's all gone
[22:01] <kostkon> are*
[22:02] <rypervenche> MENOOO: For 30G, photorec will likely be your only way to restore it. And it's not going to look pretty. You're going to lose file names and metadata. So you're going to probably have to manually sort things. The longer you keep using the disk though, the more you will lose and won't be able to restore.
[22:05] <testy> howdy
[22:05] <tomreyn> testdisk does not help in this case. the partition table is intact. fsck won't help wither, the filesystem is intact. what is needed is a file system specific undeletion utility.
[22:06] <tomreyn> (so extundelete or photorec could work)
[22:06] <rypervenche> True.
[22:06] <rypervenche> MENOOO: Start with extundelete, then go photorec if that doesn't work. Only mount the drive as read-only from a liveCD and move the restored files to a separate disk.
[22:07] <tomreyn> also e2undo if you have an undo log
[22:09] <MENOOO> rypervenche: it's a   /dev/sda1  type:ext4  file system
[22:13] <rypervenche> MENOOO: I assumed that. Still follow my last response.
[22:22] <danrik> Why can't I upgrade from ubuntu 16.04 to 18.04? What's the reason it's delayed?
[22:22] <holicow> hi. what's the command to install software boutique to ubuntu mate 18.04?
[22:23] <riotz> danrik, https://itsfoss.com/ubuntu-18-04-release-features/
[22:23] <Bashing-om> danrik: The path woll open when the .1 release. See the release notes: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BionicBeaver/ReleaseNotes .
[22:28] <gpap> tgm4883: solved finally the problem with nautilus snapping, it is poor software design, unfortunatelly
[22:33] <danrik> riotz, thx.
[22:33] <bray90820> Will all my SSH keys transfer if I am to upgrade from 16.04 to 18.04
[22:34] <tgm4883> gpap: what was it?
[22:36] <gpap> tgm4883: well i removed my eizo nanao monitor, connected with a hdmi to dvi cable, and rebooted my laptop with it;s own screen. Then nautilus could snap right and left, as all the other applications :)  Gosh!
[22:37] <tgm4883> gpap: that sounds like a bug
[22:37] <gpap> :)
[22:39] <gpap> tgm4883: should someone publish it?
[22:41] <tgm4883> gpap: yea you should probably file a bug on launchpad
[22:43] <gpap> tgm4883: i am tired now, maybe tomorrow, greetings to everyone here and especially to the people that helped me
[22:50] <bray90820> Is there a way to trigger like a fake  reboot with a live disk without loosing your settings
[22:50] <bray90820> *Loseing
[22:59] <rypervenche> bray90820: In order to do what?
[22:59] <bray90820> I wanted to test out my bluetooth mouse to see what settings and stuff are saved upon reboot
[23:00] <tgm4883> Why would you think the settings wouldn't be saved?
[23:01] <bray90820> I am using an apple magic mouse and Im changing a bunch of things and in previous versions of ubuntu the setting wen't kept correctly
[23:03] <kostkon> bray90820, you could restart your x. that will also log you out of your session. also you could try restarting things like your bluetooth service or even the whole systemd etc
[23:03] <bray90820> which one would you recommend I do?
[23:04] <kostkon> bray90820, all? i mean it's a liveusb you don't care what happens
[23:04] <bray90820> I am just saying which one would most act like a reboot?
[23:04] <kostkon> bray90820, start with x
[23:05] <eric_> Hello. Will GNOME Files (Nautilus) be updated to version 3.28 in this current release (Bionic Beaver)?
[23:05] <kostkon> bray90820, then your bluetooth service etc
[23:05] <kostkon> bray90820, restart x or gdm whichever applies best
[23:06] <Ezro> Hey everyone. Does anyone know how to get freetype (truetype) fonts to work with Wine? I've tried installing them a couple of times but it keeps telling me it can't find the freetype font library.
[23:07] <AceKing> I did a fresh install of 18.04 on my PC. I am hardwired into the router and my Ethernet card is RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express. My download speed is 6 mbps and my upload speed is 27 mbps. My download is usually over 100 mbps. Worked good with all other versions. Any ideas how to fix this?
[23:08] <Ezro> libfreetype6 is the package I installed.
[23:08] <tomreyn> AceKing: does a 16.04 live usb work better (to rule out it's the router or ISP)?
[23:09] <tomreyn> AceKing: actuall yi'd reboot the router first of all
[23:10] <AceKing> tomreyn: Yes, 16.04 LiveCD works good. And yes, I rebooted router and modem. Getting great speed on my laptop running 17.10
[23:11] <bray90820> kostkon: I restarted gdm now I can't get bast the login screen
[23:12] <kostkon> bray90820, damn
[23:12] <tomreyn> AceKing: can you post the NICs vendor/product ID? lspci -nn | grep Ethernet
[23:12] <bray90820> Got any suggestions on a way to me to actually login at this point?
[23:13] <AceKing> tomreyn: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/nn8MPBFgSf/
[23:13] <kostkon> bray90820, what happens when you try to login
[23:14] <bray90820> Screen goes black and acts like it's about to login then goes back to login screen
[23:14] <pikapika> Hi. Is it known to cause any issues when you use "Try Ubuntu without installing" in 18.04? I did this in a vm to resize the storage, and...well it just shows a black/purple screen. Currently doing the resize with a different Linux iso, but does this happen on actual hardware too?
[23:14] <bray90820> sudo systemctl restart gdm.service is what I did
[23:14] <kostkon> bray90820, you could ctrl+alt+f1 and check the logs
[23:16] <trubini> 18.04 does funny things with virtualbox
[23:16] <tomreyn> AceKing: does "ip -s l" list any errors or dropped packets for the active one of your two NICs?
[23:16] <kostkon> bray90820, or just nuke it and reboot and try the 2nd approach, restarting the bluetooth service.
[23:16] <bray90820> That was wried I was looking at the log and It just logged me in and every window is open like it was before I logged out but no mouse or keyboard work then a few seconds later the screen went black and now nothing works
[23:17] <kostkon> bray90820, yeah that sounds kinda strange
[23:17] <AceKing> tomreyn: No errors
[23:17] <bray90820> I ended up just restarting and now everything seems fine
[23:18] <Osmodivs> lo, when I try to activate the "Display HDD temperature" I get this message from the Terminal : can't connect to 127.0.0.1:7634 : Connection refused
[23:18] <Osmodivs> How can I connect my HDD so Gkrellm can tell me the temperature?
[23:18] <tomreyn> AceKing: any obvious errors about your rtl* driver / networking / ethernet in "dmesg -T"?
[23:20] <AceKing> tomreyn: [Sat Apr 28 18:53:25 2018] [Firmware Bug]: TSC_DEADLINE disabled due to Errata; please update microcode to version: 0xb2 (or later)
[23:21] <tomreyn> AceKing: is intel-microcode installed?
[23:22] <AceKing> tomreyn: Not sure. Not something I had installed
[23:23] <tomreyn> AceKing: dpkg -l intel-microcode
[23:23] <AceKing> tomreyn: dpkg -l intel-microcode
[23:23] <tomreyn> AceKing: yes exactly
[23:23] <AceKing> tomreyn: oops
[23:24] <tomreyn> :)
[23:24] <AceKing> tomreyn: dpkg-query: no packages found matching intel-microcode
[23:25] <tomreyn> AceKing: lscpu | grep '^Model name'
[23:26] <AceKing> tomreyn: it hungup just showing >
[23:26] <tomreyn> AceKing: cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep ^model | tail -n1
[23:27] <tomreyn> AceKing: or just tell me which cpu you have if you know
[23:27] <AceKing> tomreyn: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6700 CPU @ 3.40GHz
[23:28] <kostkon> AceKing, apt-cache policy intel-microcode
[23:29] <tomreyn> AceKing: okay, then you should probably install the intel-microcode package. whether it will improve the network issue, i'm not convinced it will. but it should improve your protection against the meltdown/spectre vulnerabilities
[23:29] <tomreyn> !info intel-microcode bionic
[23:30] <AceKing> tomreyn: OK, thanks. Can I install that from the package manager?
[23:30] <Truk> hello
[23:30] <Truk> how can i do a sudo -s in a bash script
[23:30] <kostkon> AceKing, sudo apt install intel-microcode
[23:30] <Truk> without exiting the script ?
[23:31] <AceKing> kostkon: Thanks
[23:32] <RadicalEntity> I've been having an issue with a sata controller slowing my boot times. I didn't have this issue in 16.04.
[23:32] <AceKing> tomreyn: Thanks. I'm going to reboot to see if that helped.
[23:33] <tomreyn> AceKing: yes. you can also use a graphical package mamager, or you can use the 'additional drivers' tab on the 'software updates' (or similar) configuration option available on the menu
[23:33] <tomreyn> oh i'm late
[23:39] <Tecan> http://netpipe.ca/?page_id=961
[23:39] <tomreyn> Tecan: ?
[23:42] <kostkon> Tecan, no spamming please
[23:44] <tomreyn> when AceKing returns, please point them to https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/r8168-dkms

[23:45] <evil-capybaras-7> Gnome Web is the most unstable web browser in the universe
[23:45] <luxio> I have the `imagemagick` package installed, but no `magick` command
[23:46] <luxio> is it in a different package?
[23:46] <evil-capybaras-7> anyway, enough ranting: is there an option that makes "less" behave more or less like "cat" with one argument? to be pedantic, what is that option if so? :)
[23:46] <evil-capybaras-7> i.e. disable paging and just dump the file
[23:47] <kostkon> luxio, it's 'imagemagick' i believe
[23:47] <luxio> kostkon: yes, that is the package i have installed
[23:47] <luxio> oh you mean the command?
[23:47] <kostkon> luxio, affirmative
[23:47] <luxio> i also get command not found for that
[23:47] <kostkon> luxio, hmm
[23:48] <EriC^^> !find magick
[23:49] <kostkon> luxio, dpkg-query -L imagemagick
[23:50] <bray90820> How would I upgrade 16.04 to 18.04 I would assume just running "sudo apt dist-upgrade" right?
[23:50] <kostkon> !info imagemagick
[23:50] <kostkon> bray90820, do-release-upgrade -d
[23:52] <bray90820> Thanks
[23:53] <waltman> How's the rollout been going? Have there been any major issues?
[23:53] <NiteRain> I am using ubuntu 17.10, I want network-manager to manage my ethernet interface right now it is unmanged, how do I change it.  Setting manged to true in the NetworkManager.conf in [ifupdown] doesn't work since lo isn't managed, and setting an interface for the interface in that file for the ethernet doesn't work either.
[23:53] <waltman> Trying to decide if I want to go from 17.10->18.04 tonight or wait, probably until next weekend.
