[00:01] <Squall5668> flotwig: can you still run sudo commands?
[00:01] <flotwig> Squall5668, yep
[00:01] <ringzer0> pavlos: md_5: Thanks for helping.  I became distracted by an emergency ticket.  It should be the configuration; this is the same configuration (straight docker) with -p 81:80 ... yes, it's listening on 0.0.0.0 (or the ipv6 version of that it appears: tcp6       0      0 [::]:81                 [::]:*                  LISTEN
[00:01] <jordino> xamithan: i already did paste it =) can u see?
[00:01] <flotwig> and gksudo still works
[00:01] <xamithan> That isn't the config file or the smbclient error
[00:02] <xamithan> Might want to put that stuff in a pastebin too or the server might kick ya
[00:02] <ringzer0> I can connect directly to the private nginx upstream on VIRTUALIP:80 ... and I can connect with curl on 127.0.0.1:81
[00:02] <ringzer0> but not with: tld.com:81
[00:02] <ringzer0> oh ... I just realized; it's likely aws network policy
[00:02] <ringzer0> sorry guys :(
[00:03] <jordino> xamithan: the config file?
[00:04] <jordino> for the server u mean smb.conf  from the host ?
[00:04] <xamithan> We'll need the error message from smbclient first
[00:04] <xamithan> Showing why the share was rejected
[00:04] <jordino> no error it just keeps requesting username/passwd
[00:04] <xamithan> Did you do the smbpasswd commands ?
[00:04] <xamithan> Or is it authenticating on some kind of backend
[00:05] <jordino> no no i did use the smbpasswd commands -only in the server side-
[00:06] <xamithan> Ok so,  we'll need to see the log files saying why it was denied
[00:06] <xamithan> the smb.log
[00:06] <jordino> u mean in the client or the server log?
[00:07] <jordino> the one that i posted is the server log
[00:07] <xamithan> If that is all of it you might need to turn up debugging further
[00:07] <jordino> cos in my client /varlog/samba is empty
[00:07] <jordino> var/log/samba is empty
[00:08] <jordino> iĺl repaste the whole content please hold
[00:08] <jordino> done
[00:12] <jordino> xamithan: is it better?
[00:12] <jordino> o_O
[00:12] <xamithan> I don't know,  you have not given us a paste to look at
[00:12] <pavlos> jordino: can you post the [publica] details from the smb.conf
[00:12] <jordino> sure
[00:13] <malwar3hun73r> if i do-release-upgrade with the development version, would that cause any issues with LTS going forward?
[00:13] <malwar3hun73r> going from 16.04 LTS to 18.04 LTS
[00:14] <jordino> done pavlos
[00:14] <pavlos> jordino: where??
[00:14] <jordino> at https://paste.ubuntu.com/
[00:14] <jordino> or should i paste it here?
[00:15] <pavlos> not here, give us the link of the paste ... example tail /etc/samba/smb.conf | pastebinit
[00:16] <jordino> pavlos: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/4jzmVrDJ73/
[00:16] <pavlos> jordino: line 14 needs a leading /
[00:17] <jordino> done
[00:18] <jordino> xamithan:  this is the smbd log from the server : https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/cKpKmSvt9Y/
[00:18] <xamithan> You restarted it after you changed that valid user right?
[00:18] <jordino> sure
[00:18] <jordino> i did
[00:18] <pavlos> jordino: running 18.04?
[00:19] <jordino> u mean the linux issue? yes
[00:19] <xamithan> Hmm.  well that log doesn't tell us anything.  Will probably need to turn up debugging to get more information
[00:20] <oerheks> sudo systemctl restart smbd.service nmbd.service
[00:20] <pavlos> jordino: I came late in the chat, can you issue smb://someserver/publica on your file manager?
[00:21] <jordino> pavlos:  it requests me username/passwd
[00:22] <jordino> smb://192.168.1.1/._publica         = requests login info (username /passwd)
[00:22] <jordino> i mean smb://192.168.1.1/publica         = requests login info (username /passwd)
[00:24] <pavlos> jordino: can you change the smb.conf [publica] with just 2 lines, writeable = yes guest ok = yes   restart smbd and test
[00:24] <jordino> doing so...
[00:25] <pavlos> jordino: http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/ZBXnVvYcsm/
[00:25] <pavlos> example
[00:26] <jordino> is already restarted
[00:27] <jordino> like this pavlos https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/VvmhxVG7XW/
[00:27] <pavlos> jordino: yes
[00:27] <jordino> =) publica is allowing to get into
[00:27] <jordino> =) thats is perfect but what about privada ? (private)
[00:28] <jordino> can u please help me on that one too?
[00:28] <pavlos> jordino: I think the valid users line forces authentication ... let me look at the second
[00:28] <jordino> 10x a lot
[00:28] <pavlos> jordino: jroldan is the only one to access that share
[00:29] <NoCode> I've downloaded a snap app from Github. How do I install the app from command line if it's downloaded to the desktop?
[00:29] <jordino> let me give it a try
[00:29] <pavlos> jordino: decome jroldan and try the smb line again
[00:29] <pavlos> become*
[00:29] <xamithan> The private share.  Why is it missing a / before the srv ?
[00:30] <pavlos> xamithan: he fixed it
[00:30] <xamithan> Oh you already said that
[00:30] <jordino> xamithan: already fixed that lost /
[00:30] <jordino> =)
[00:34] <Skaface82> am i here?
[00:34] <jordino> pavlos: seems to be working now
[00:34] <pavlos> yes
[00:34] <pavlos> jordino: try with another user, it should not allow
[00:34] <jordino> ok .. let me see
[00:35] <Skaface82> im still fighting with this HDMI problem, where when I turn my projector on, I lose network connectivity
[00:35] <Skaface82> the LAN interface stays up, it just cannot send any packets over the network
[00:35] <Skaface82> until i turn the projector off
[00:36] <xamithan> Does it do the same thing on a livedisc of 18.04 ?
[00:36] <xamithan> There is tons of random issues when you try to huge upgrades like that
[00:36] <jordino> yes indeed pavlos !!
[00:36] <jordino> thank you a lot pavlos  and xamithan !
[00:36] <pavlos> jordino: yw
[00:37] <xamithan> Took a bit to get the information but glad it working jordino =)
[00:37] <jordino> the whole tutos i looked and readed, said i should use all those avoided parameters
[00:37] <jordino> uff!! thank you guys!
[00:39] <pavlos> jordino: for the [publica] those 2 will suffice, for the [privada] you need to verify the creation mask
[00:39] <jordino> ooh i see
[00:41] <pavlos> jordino: as user jroldan, you can create dirs with 775 and files with 664
[00:44] <pavlos> jordino: sudo apt install cifs-utils, then you could do: sudo mount //192.168.1.1/publica /mnt and it will mount it
[00:45] <pavlos> jordino: sudo umount /mnt goes away
[00:47] <jordino> thank you pavlos  right now this a simulation excersise from ubuntu to ubuntu so i will preffer (in the real scenario) every user goes into the smb://ip every time
[00:47] <jordino> and authenticate
[00:47] <pavlos> jordino: ok
[00:47] <jordino> in the beggining at least
[00:47] <jordino> ;)
[00:47] <jordino> =)
[00:48] <xamithan> Then you figure how automounting on demand and have some fun with it
[00:48] <jordino> the real scenario are all mac OSX to ubuntu server
[00:48] <jordino> thank you guys!! :D

[02:04] <metrum84> hi! I used Ubuntu from a bootable USB and when I got into my Win 10, the time is incorrect. I made my research and did the things which are said to be fix this problem, but after a reboot, the time is still incorrect on Windows. Any idea?
[02:05] <Ezro> If you change the timezone on the clock and restart does it revert back?
[02:07] <metrum84> The current time in Budapest is 4:06 right now. Windows show 4:52 on the system. (UTC+1)
[02:07] <metrum84> Seems like hours are the same now, but shouldnt the system also set the minutes correctly?
[02:09] <Ezro> Tbh, I'm not entirely sure. I think a lot of OSes will geolocate your computer and set the time based on that. I'm not sure if that's when you log into the desktop environment, or on install, or what, but if you can set the time accurately and it sticks then it's probably not a big issue.
[02:10] <cpdean> how do I get `setxkbmap` type settings to persist between logins/restarts?  putting the commands i want to run on startup or login into ~/.xsessionrc or ~/.profile does not seem to work, despite that I can see that these files are definitely getting run
[02:10] <metrum84> ok, thanks for the help
[02:10] <cpdean> ~/.xinitrc doesn't even get run
[02:10] <Ezro> Np.
[02:10] <Ezro> Does anyone know a good replacement for the Intel 8260?
[02:16] <Ezro> Also, does anyone know how to get window quadrants similar to Windows 10?
[02:16] <Ezro> Where I can drag a window to a corner and it'll occupy that corner.
[02:20] <notreal> try a tiling window manager ?
[02:26] <NoCode> How do I install a snap that I've downloaded?
[02:27] <NoCode> Tutorials how to build snaps, but I can't find anything on installing a .snap.
[02:41] <RoadRunner|2> what fs is recommended for 18.04?
[02:43] <NoCode> where can I find where appimage stores shortcuts/icons? I just ran an appimage, asked me if I'd like icons placed. I said yes. Then realized the app was on my desktop. Moved the appimage elsewhere, and the shortcuts that were placed are no longer working, and they're not listed in the menu editor.
[02:48] <SlidingHorn> RoadRunner|2: fs?
[02:49] <RoadRunner|2> SlidingHorn: file system: ext4 or something else (for a desktop)/
[02:50] <SlidingHorn> NoCode: 3rd party software from outside the repositories isn't supported here.  Unfortunately, that aspect will vary from application to application.
[02:50] <SlidingHorn> NoCode: best I can suggest would be to right-click the shortcut and select properties
[02:50] <SlidingHorn> RoadRunner|2: ext4 is the standard, I believe
[02:52] <zzo38> Why do I sometimes get a "CDROM not ready" message in the kernel log even though I am not using the CDROM?
[02:54] <Bashing-om> zzo38: Perhaps the CDROM is enabled in your software sources list ?
[02:55] <zzo38> Bashing-om: OK, what file is that in? Also, if I disable it, is it still possible to explicitly ask to use the CDROM instead of any other sources (and if so, how)?
[02:56] <egc> What is the best vnc server for a headless system if I'd like to use the default desktop environment for ubuntu 18.04?
[02:57] <egc> i'm trying tigervnc, but having problems starting it
[02:57] <RoadRunner|2> SlidingHorn: lvm seems to be the default...
[03:04] <Bashing-om> zzo38: the file in question is " /etc/apt/sources.list"; quick check is run ' sudo apt update ', does the package manager give an error in respect to the CDROM ?
[03:06] <RoadRunner|2> to put it more broadly, what file system and partition scheme would be recommended for a single-user xubuntu 18.04 install?
[03:07] <Bashing-om> RoadRunner|2: The general purpose, do it all well is ext4 file system .
[03:08] <RoadRunner|2> Bashing-om: what swap size would you suggest?
[03:08] <zzo38> Bashing-om: OK thanks
[03:09] <qianran> I can't operate mysql after updating it to 8.0
[03:10] <zzo38> Bashing-om: I get no error message relating to the CDROM from that command. However, I do get: "p11-kit: couldn't load module: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkcs11/gnome-keyring-pkcs11.so: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkcs11/gnome-keyring-pkcs11.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"
[03:10] <zzo38> What exactly is that? I am not using GNOME.
[03:14] <RoadRunner|2> Bashing-om: I was thinking of allocating 20GB for the main partition and 4GB swap, does that sound reasonable to you for 18.04 and a average number of apps?
[03:17] <tcow1> hi all-was wondering if someone could explain why the colour of text changes in terminal when i dont add "sudo"to sudo apt-get dist-upgrade: it still runs, no errors , but is orange instead of the normal text colour
[03:18] <tcow1> is it a bad thing or just indicating to me not being run as sudo/su
[03:18] <qianran> what's your version
[03:19] <tcow1> ubuntu 16.04
[03:19] <tcow1> and the same happens on debian (kali)
[03:25] <LACampbell> hello, I just updated to bionic but my system is in a bit of a state, any idea where to go from here? https://gist.github.com/LewisAndrewCampbell/af500ae71dd4c0b434102222b9766a2b
[03:26] <qianran> in my system,no "sudo" couldn't upgrade unless using root model firstly
[03:26] <LACampbell> it looks like gobject wasn't updated properly which is propogating across a lot of software
[03:26] <Bashing-om> RoadRunner|2: I oftem see 30 gigs as the recommened minimum . My work station I run seperate partitions: http://termbin.com/uvt4 ; http://termbin.com/xary. Where I do have a good idea of what I am doing .
[03:26] <tcow1> anyone care to answer re terminial colour question please =)
[03:27] <SlidingHorn> LACampbell: what brought you to the point of having to run that command?  How did you upgrade, and from what version?
[03:28] <LACampbell> SlidingHorn: 17.10 -> 18,04. I simply used do-release-upgrade
[03:28] <tcow1> i always use the terminal to update and upgrade, i prefer the terminal
[03:28] <LACampbell> I ran that command because I couldn't open a new terminal, and update completed with errors
[03:28] <tcow1> i am using ubuntu 16.04 and kali i noticed it occours on both
[03:28] <SlidingHorn> !patience | tcow1
[03:28] <SlidingHorn> Is ubottu RIP again??
 chill homes i am replying to a question
[03:30] <RoadRunner|2> Bashing-om: btw, I did what you suggested last time and was able to ping 8.8.8.8 but not google.com
[03:30] <SlidingHorn> tcow1: I'm referring to you repeating your question after only 10 minutes
[03:30] <tcow1> lmao i thought the question was addressed to me, missed
[03:30] <tcow1> a bit of text\
[03:31] <tcow1> sorry my bad
[03:31] <Bashing-om> RoadRunner|2: Then you know you have a DNS config issue :(
[03:32] <RoadRunner|2> Bashing-om: latest update: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/WrmPqZR5fP/
[03:33] <tcow1> how long should i wait before reposting (only ten minutes-thought that would suffice)
[03:35] <Bashing-om> RoadRunner|2: I am too tired to think well now .. but what is up with " search telus " in the network config file ?
[03:35] <krytarik> tcow1: Tbh, the scenario you describe is simply impossible to begin with, so..
[03:36] <LACampbell> https://gist.github.com/LewisAndrewCampbell/6ba864208ad29316e89476e56be73030 this is what I consistently get when I try and do anything with apt. I'll try and get a new libgobject installed, manually if I have to. will report back
[03:36] <RoadRunner|2> Bashing-om: telus is my ip provider; when is a good time to find you here (it is after 8pm here)?
[03:38] <Bashing-om> RoadRunner|2: Never can tell what my schedule is going to be .
[03:40] <Bashing-om> Here lately my feet hit the floor early .. and my head hits the pillow late . Grass is getting out of hand :)
[03:40] <RoadRunner|2> Bashing-om: since you are familiar with my situation, it would be nice if I could ask you more (esp. when  you aren't tired :); tommorow mid day maybe?
[03:45] <Bashing-om> RoadRunner|2: tomprrow I am out of town . for now network manager ' dpkg -l network-manager ' ?
 your right my mistake allow me to correct myself re issue question
[03:50] <tcow1> why does the colour change in terminal when i enter apt update/dist-upgrade as apposed to apt-get update/dist-upgrade-arent these the same thing ("apt" get being a option?)
[03:52] <krytarik> Ah yes, now that makes more sense, and is also what I suspected is going on - 'apt' is simply more fancy a frontend.
[03:52] <Bashing-om> tcow1: See: https://mvogt.wordpress.com/2014/04/04/apt-1-0/ .
[03:53] <tcow1> okay got ya thank you very much
[03:53] <tcow1> both of yall
[03:54] <coolchris> i have decided ubuntu sucks im going to sudo rm -rf / --no-preserve-root it
[03:54] <Bashing-om> tcow1: :) apt and apt get though "similar" are not the same .
[03:54] <SlidingHorn> coolchris: enjoy.
[03:55] <coolchris> bye
[03:55] <SlidingHorn> bye
[03:55] <coolchris> its going now
[03:56] <coolchris> ok everything is gone
[03:57] <coolchris> its all wiped out lol
[03:57] <SlidingHorn> !ot > coolchris
[03:57] <SlidingHorn> troll elsewhere please.
[03:57] <coolchris> im not trolling i really did it
[03:58] <coolchris> have fun using crappy os everyone bye
[03:59] <Mead> crappy os?  But we are using ubuntu, not macosx
[03:59] <SlidingHorn> Mead: don't feed the troll
[04:01] <Mead> sigh, ok
[04:03]  * egc feeds the troll 
[04:03] <egc> some snausage
[04:05] <Mead> I thought trolls ate goats
[04:05] <SlidingHorn> Let's keep the channel clear and on-topic for Ubuntu support questions please :)
[04:18] <preview> hallo, could anyone help me with this error? I cant update apt as it says " Couldn't create temporary file /tmp/apt.conf.yMo12h for passing config to apt-key" on most repositories, appears to be a gpg issue?
[04:18] <preview> my tmp folder is symlinked to another drive, but I've tried with a faolder in root and it still happens
[04:18] <Osmodivs> Hello. I use Ubuntu-GNOME 16.04.4. I want to copy a folder of fonts to my system, but I get an error message in the teminal: sudo cp -R /media/administrador/WD Black™/Assets/fonts/ /usr/share/fonts/truetype/
[04:18] <Osmodivs> cp: cannot stat '/media/administrador/WD': No such file or directory
[04:18] <Osmodivs> cp: cannot stat 'Black™/Assets/fonts/': No such file or directory
[04:18] <Osmodivs>   So what am I doing wrong here?
[04:19] <SlidingHorn> preview: is this from a third party ppa?
[04:19] <SlidingHorn> Osmodivs: you need to escape spaces and special characters with a \
[04:19] <preview> SlidingHorn: it appears to be happening to all of them
[04:20] <SlidingHorn> Osmodivs: I would start by changing the directory to get rid of the TM symbol
[04:21] <Osmodivs> SlidingHorn, so, Linux can't recognize th TM symbol?
[04:22] <SlidingHorn> Osmodivs: It might if you escape it, but having special characters in a directory name is probably asking for headaches
[04:23] <krytarik> Should be fine™
[04:26] <Osmodivs> SlidingHorn, Yeah, all I had to do it's type those escape chracters. Thank you.
[04:27] <SlidingHorn> Osmodivs: glad it worked! :)

[05:07] <thimanshu_> hello , i am using ubuntu 18.04 i have tried disabling my nvidia descrete gpu by removing bumblebee, nvidia,and nouveau
[05:07] <thimanshu_> problem is am still getting 100% power usage on powertop
[05:08] <thimanshu_> help me to turn of my descrete nvidia card
[05:10] <thimanshu_> hello >
[05:11] <lotuspsychje> thimanshu_: why do you want to get rid of your drivers?
[05:13] <thimanshu_> i am a noob , first i tried changing to igpu by primus , then switched to bumblebee after investing whole night i thought maybe remove them all together like windows .....  still no lucj
[05:13] <thimanshu_> luck*
[05:13] <lotuspsychje> thimanshu_: bumblebee is depraced... use ubuntu-drivers list to see your drivers
[05:16] <thimanshu_> guess , i have nvidia-390 still installed :D , but shouldn't i get info about i915 drivers ?
[05:18] <thimanshu_> but synaptics show it is not installed ?
[05:20] <SlidingHorn> thimanshu_: Why are you attempting to remove the drivers?  You still haven't told us the underlying issue
[05:21] <gajop> hey all! i'd like to try out the new ubuntu 18.04 LTS  on my desktop PC, but I don't have an internet connection at home yet; I need a bunch of packages that might not be included by default; Is there a way to download a bigger install, similar to the Debian DVDs?
[05:22] <thimanshu_> the issue is i dont want to use my descrete gpu, so i want it to be completly off. but these drivers just swtich to intel igpu and nvidia is still sucking my precious battery.
[05:22] <thimanshu_> I am trying to decrease the power draw.
[05:26] <lotuspsychje> gajop: you have a slow internet and want a bigger download? explain plz?
[05:29] <lotuspsychje> thimanshu_: is your card an optimus hybrid?
[05:32] <thimanshu_> yes
[05:33] <gajop> lotuspsychje: I have *no* internet at home, and I want to download more files while I am at this cafe
[05:33] <gajop> I can do this with Debian, but I cannot do it with Ubuntu apparently - or I'm blind
[05:34] <lotuspsychje> gajop: just download the ubuntu iso.?
[05:34] <gajop> I want to have a decent system when I install it, so I don't need to depend on having an internet connection
[05:34] <cfhowlett> gajop, we cannot change the internet download speed from ubuntu
[05:34] <lotuspsychje> gajop: or use apt to download your .debs
[05:34] <gajop> isn't the ubuntu .iso pretty small?
[05:34] <cfhowlett> gajop, compared to ...?
[05:34] <gajop> i installed 16.04 LTS that i had on a USB stick and it lacked pretty basic stuff like SDL
[05:35] <gajop> compared to the debian DVDs? can't you guys read?
[05:35] <SlidingHorn> gajop: I think this might help you - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingSoftware#Installing_packages_without_an_Internet_connection
[05:35] <cfhowlett> gajop, less attitude and more information >>> more answers
[05:35] <lotuspsychje> gajop: ubuntu doesnt provide bigger dvd's
[05:37] <lotuspsychje> gajop: see also apt download, apt offline and aptoncd
[05:37] <gajop> SlidingHorn: thanks; this is kinda what i want but a bit too complicated (i'd need to go home and back to the cafe which is like 20mins away, maybe even a couple of times)
[05:38] <gajop> lotuspsychje: ok thanks; i think the "ubuntu doesn't provide bigger DVDs" is the reality of the situation
[05:39] <lotuspsychje> gajop: internet & apt are your friends
[05:40] <gajop> yeah but i don't have it yet and i wanted to do some work =)
[05:41] <gajop> mint and ubuntu seem to only have these small-ish downloads of about 2GB, whereas debian has a 3part dvd of about 12GBs
[05:42] <cfhowlett> sounds like a different OS might meet your needs better than ubuntu.
[05:42] <krytarik> And here some people say the images have become too big.. >_>
[05:43] <gajop> it's really a very specific situation
[05:43] <gajop> i haven't had home internet for 2 months since i moved; feels like i'm living in the stone age
[05:43] <gajop> and tethering would probably exhaust my phone limits within an hour
[05:47] <lotuspsychje> gajop: even on a bigger dvd, your packages would need to be updated so internet is a must these days, to keep safe, updated
[05:48] <gajop> lotuspsychje: i don't think i believe that story anymore; bleeding edge distros are just super unstable; i don't need to keep updating everything to have a working dev PC
[05:49] <gajop> and especially lately there has been so little improvement in the linux desktop space; i'm not sure what i'd be even looking forward to
[05:52] <dacomedian> How can I mount an vfat formatted USB stick so I can also delete from it? I can not seem to find the correct command.
[05:56] <SlidingHorn> dacomedian: you should be able to    sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sd** /path/to/mount/point   (sd** being the actual device id)
[06:08] <shalok> How do I restart evolution data server?
[06:08] <dacomedian> SlidingHorn: No, that only give me read mode.
[06:10] <dacomedian> SlidingHorn: No option to delete files
[06:11] <k0nichiwa> question i just secured a directory 700 .. ssl for apache2
[06:11] <k0nichiwa> now i cant cd into it
[06:11] <k0nichiwa> sudo chmod 700 ssl
[06:11] <k0nichiwa> and i cant sudo cd ssl
[06:11] <SlidingHorn> dacomedian: try with a    -o rw,umask=0000   at the end
[06:11] <k0nichiwa> sudo su
[06:11] <k0nichiwa> ok that works
[06:14] <SlidingHorn> dacomedian: so an example would be     sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /media/myusb -o rw,umask=0000
[06:16] <thimanshu> hello please help me turn off my nvidia gpu (optimus capable) completly . I have tried prime-select intel but no luck. Thank you.
[06:18] <lotuspsychje> thimanshu: if you have an nvidia driver installed, you should have nvidia-prime where you can set your card to performance mode or powersaving mode
[06:20] <thimanshu> yea , but it does not turns it off completly , there is still 3 w power draw.
[06:22] <thimanshu> lotuspsychje: is there anyway to turn it off completly
[06:23] <lotuspsychje> thimanshu: thats what a hybrid card does, let you choose between the 2
[06:23] <cfhowlett> exactomundo!
[06:23] <thimanshu> i want to complety power it off
[06:23] <lotuspsychje> thimanshu: then you would have no screen?
[06:24] <thimanshu> lotuspsychje: in manjaro i was able to disable nvidia and run only on intel. (not trying to be rude )
[06:25] <thimanshu> though bumblebee and bumblebee-nvidia
[06:25] <lotuspsychje> thimanshu: bumblebee is not used anymore
[06:25] <lotuspsychje> thimanshu: disable performance mode, means using only intel
[06:26] <thimanshu> ok trying again . thank you :)
[06:26] <lotuspsychje> !info nvidia-prime | thimanshu
[06:42] <k0nichiwa> cool installed ssl certificate
[06:47] <alkisg> Hi, I'm looking for a good python editor, e.g. that would hint/autocomplete when I type things like Gtk. I'm between pycharm (=don't like because it doesn't have a .deb and it's not in the repositories), atom (not in the repositories), and eric. Any pointers?
[06:49] <Skaface82> are you experienced with python or learning?
[06:50] <alkisg> Skaface82: experienced programmer, newish to python
[06:50] <Skaface82> might want to have a look at thonny
[06:50] <alkisg> Thanks, looking...
[06:51] <ThetaOrionis> Hey guys, so I'm trying to install 18.04 here, on an old Inspiron N4010. Tried everything from erasing HDD to new partition table (installing from USB, tried both Unetbootin and Etcher) but it fails at 'Detecting file systems'
[06:52] <ThetaOrionis> Error messages are like 'upowerd 2513 unhanbled action 'bind' on ...' (some USB device id)
[06:54] <SlidingHorn> alkisg: a couple others:  IDLE, spyder
[06:54] <daviatorstorm> hey guys
[06:55] <daviatorstorm> can anyone help me with problem?
[06:55] <Skaface82> dont know till you say what the problem is
[06:55] <cfhowlett> !ask
[06:55] <alkisg> SlidingHorn: thanks, IDLE seems very simplistic; spyder looks good, hope it's not only for scientific programs as it says...
[06:55] <tHimanshu> ok so i tried switching to powersave intel and nothing 100% usage by 940mx gpu is not switching of.
[06:57] <tHimanshu> Somebody please help me to minimise power usage by nvidia 940mx , ath10k and xHCI host...
[06:58] <daviatorstorm> System: ubuntu 16.04. Laptop: HP EliteBook 8570p. I have problem with sound. I've reinstalled pulseaudio. After this when plugging in headphones no sound exists
[06:59] <alkisg> Skaface82: I installed thonny and as a test I'm trying to debug a program. At the first command, "import gi", it breaks with module not found. Does it need a virtual environment? Can't it pull the libraries from my system?
[07:00] <Skaface82> I dont have any experience with it, ive just heard of people using it with raspberry pi's
[07:00] <alkisg> Thank you
[07:01] <binaryhermit> hmm
[07:02] <tHimanshu> daviatorstorm: try if it is a default install then try opening alsamixer and unmuting and increasing volume of playback devices. (my guess is ubuntu uses pulseaudio with alsa)
[07:02] <binaryhermit> when I log in via ssh on a bionic server that was upgraded from xenial the motd says "Your Hardware Enablement Stack (HWE) is supported until April 2019." among other things
[07:02] <binaryhermit> I'm curious how it figures April 2019
[07:03] <SlidingHorn> alkisg: you might also want to check out the ##python channel for more specific support :)
[07:03] <alkisg> Thank you SlidingHorn
[07:07] <daviatorstorm> tHimanshu: no result ((
[07:08] <tHimanshu> daviatorstorm: what is the entry in soundcard ?
[07:09] <daviatorstorm> HDA Intel PCH IDT 92HD81B1X5
[07:10] <badsekter> install pulseaudio
[07:10] <daviatorstorm> allready
[07:11] <badsekter> did you unmute in alsamixer.
[07:11] <daviatorstorm> yes
[07:12] <badsekter> does mpg123 seem to play or give an error?
[07:12] <daviatorstorm> Sorry?
[07:13] <dacomedian> SlidingHorn: That worked. Thank you.
[07:13] <badsekter> install that and try it with an mp3 or soma.fm/groovesalad.pls
[07:13] <SlidingHorn> dacomedian: glad it worked! :)
[07:14] <pragomer> how can I add the folder /media/mysynologynasshare to gnome's indexing so that the dash-search finds my files?
[07:17] <ledeni> daviatorstorm, your hphones are wired or wireless
[07:18] <daviatorstorm> ledeni: wired
[07:18] <SlidingHorn> pragomer: Don't have a gnome setup available to me, but my first search result suggests using dconf https://askubuntu.com/questions/966801/add-locations-to-gnome-search-file-index
[07:19] <SlidingHorn> pragomer: are you using ubuntu or debian?
[07:19] <ledeni> daviatorstorm, when you plugin hphones can you check 'alsamixer' in terminal
[07:20] <daviatorstorm> ledeni: 100%
[07:22] <ledeni> daviatorstorm, check f5
[07:24] <pragomer> both. debian stable and ubuntu 18.04 on two pcs
[07:24] <daviatorstorm> ledeni: master: 100%, headphones: 100%, Speaker+LO: MM
[07:24] <pragomer> but both with gnome
[07:25] <pragomer> I got it. thank you very muc.
[07:25] <pragomer> after installing tracker-miner-fs I could do the setting
[07:26] <ledeni> daviatorstorm, install 'sudo apt install pavucontrol ' and run in terminal pavucontrol
[07:28] <daviatorstorm> ledeni: installed
[07:29] <ledeni> daviatorstorm, run in terminal pavucontrol
[07:29] <kab0m> Hi at all!
[07:30] <daviatorstorm> ledeni: when plug in jack it changing to headphones, the sounds in progress bar is coming but no sound is heared
[07:30] <kab0m> I have a really bugging problem with sharing samba folders in kubuntu 18.04. i installed samba via console, went to dolphin right clicked and shared via share tab, but the settings i put for the ownership gets reset after closing the dialog and nothing gets shared :/ des anyone else have this problem or know what to do?
[07:30] <ledeni> daviatorstorm, check hphones
[07:31] <daviatorstorm> ledeni, plugged in to my cellphone. Works well
[07:33] <ledeni> daviatorstorm, check output devices -- pavucontrol
[07:34] <daviatorstorm> ledeni: headphone are selected. still no sound, but when changing manually to speakers the sound is coming in
[07:35] <ledeni> daviatorstorm, strange
[07:35] <daviatorstorm> ledeni: yeah
[07:38] <ledeni> daviatorstorm, when you plugged in hphones speakers are mute or running
[07:38] <daviatorstorm> ledeni: running
[07:39] <OnceMe> why no encrypt /home directory in 18.04 ?
[07:39] <OnceMe> during installl
[07:39] <OnceMe> I like new ui in 18.04 but this is a deal breaker
[07:40] <ledeni> daviatorstorm, system does not switch to hphones
[07:40] <cfhowlett> !encryption | OnceMe
[07:40] <daviatorstorm> ledeni: it is switching but no playback
[07:41] <OnceMe> cfhowlett: i want out of box solution
[07:41] <OnceMe> like with 16.04
[07:42] <ledeni> daviatorstorm, if speakers are running doesn't switching
[07:42] <OnceMe> click encrypt /home checkbox done
[07:42] <daviatorstorm> ledeni: sorry>
[07:42] <daviatorstorm> ?
[07:44] <ledeni> daviatorstorm, nevermind can you check in pavucontrol configuration
[07:45] <daviatorstorm> ledeni: everything is switching but no playback
[07:46] <ledeni> daviatorstorm, pavucontrol configuration profile
[07:47] <daviatorstorm> ledeni: analog stereo duplex
[07:48] <ledeni> daviatorstorm, 👌
[07:49] <tcow1> hi all
[07:50] <ledeni> daviatorstorm, try to run app with sound and check pavucontrol playback
[07:52] <daviatorstorm> ledeni: everything switching, progress bar is moving just no sound
[07:53] <daviatorstorm> ledeni: when with plugged jack I switching from headphones to speaker sound is coming
[07:54] <ledeni> daviatorstorm, to headphones?
[07:54] <daviatorstorm> ledeni: no sound
[07:56] <JackMa> i want to make script like this : tmux —> python file.py —> ctrl + b, d ——>  tmux —> python file2.py —> ctrl + b, d. <—then how can i do it?
[07:56] <ledeni> daviatorstorm, only now i can think off is that you don't plugin headphones properly
[07:57] <daviatorstorm> ledeni: I dont think so
[07:58] <ledeni> daviatorstorm, or jack is gone
[08:01] <daviatorstorm> ledeni: why then speakers works well but plugged headphones not?
[08:01] <TheEagerPadawan> so what happened with the cryptsetup
[08:01] <TheEagerPadawan> updated from 17.10 to 18.04 LTS and can unlock my device :s
[08:02] <TheEagerPadawan> what the actual *censored*
[08:02] <ledeni> daviatorstorm, jack port is gone
[08:02] <daviatorstorm> ledeni: what do you mean?
[08:03] <ledeni> daviatorstorm, jack port doesn't working any more
[08:07] <ledeni> daviatorstorm,hardware from sound card is picked is by system but jack not working
[08:08] <daviatorstorm> ledeni: what i have to do?
[08:13] <ledeni> daviatorstorm, you lucky that speakers working
[08:13] <TheEagerPadawan> can anyone help me with this cryptpsetup problem :s
[08:20] <tigefa> TheEagerPadawan: certbot ?
[08:26] <chris___> hi
[08:26] <chris___> Can anyone help me? I can't run any graphical user session since the update to 18.04
[08:27] <chris___> Theres no error in the Xorg log, but dmesg says something about a segfault in pool
[08:28] <blackflow> TheEagerPadawan: what exactly is the problem? Says wrong passphrase?
[08:29] <chris___> No, the passphrase is correct. It tries to start the session, the mouse cursor is visible for ~5 seconds, and then the screen goes blank and it goes back to the greeter
[08:29] <chris___> ls -l /var/crash
[08:29] <chris___> woops
[08:29] <blackflow> TheEagerPadawan: ah I see you crossposted more details in -server. Well there goes my theory, about keymapping. What I'd suggest is try to unlock the LUKS container from an ubuntu liveCD
[08:35] <kab0m> can someone please help me setting up samba shares in kubuntu?
[08:36] <Elliottt72> anybody know how to get plex to work
[08:36] <Elliottt72> I need to change permissions or something
[08:38] <TheEagerPadawan> lost what was said earlier
[08:40] <johnflux> How do I install the standalone flash player please?  I've been searching and can't figure it out
[08:46] <EriC^> johnflux: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FlashPlayerStandalone
[08:48] <johnflux> EriC^: last edited 2013-11-27 22:07:47  :-)
[08:48] <Xard> if I try to access smb shares with ubutun 18.04 the authentication doesn't work and the login attempt spams "gvfsd[1580]: mkdir failed on directory /var/cache/samba: Permission denied" errors to journalctl
[08:48] <johnflux> EriC^: it's out of date, and I just figured it out
[08:48] <johnflux> EriC^: they renamed it "projector"
[08:48] <johnflux> very confusing!
[08:49] <johnflux> hmm, I can't edit it - if anyone wants to edit that FlashPlayerStandalone link to note that it's renamed 'projector', that would be helpful to the next confused person
[08:51] <guiverc> johnflux, what was renamed "projector" if you please; we can edit the wiki :)
[08:53] <johnflux> guiverc: the actual flashplayer
[08:53] <johnflux> guiverc: to run .swf files in their own window
[08:53] <johnflux> not inside of a browser
[08:54] <johnflux> guiverc: So if you download the "flash player" you get:  flash_player_npapi_linux.x86_64.tar.gz      which is the browser plugin only.   You have to download the "projector"  to get    flash_player_sa_linux.x86_64.tar.gz    which contains the executable  "flashplayer"
[08:55]  * guiverc is looking at adobe site now 
[08:55] <johnflux> guiverc: which can then be manually copied to /usr/bin
[08:56] <guiverc> flash player projector is all i see; which sounds like flash player to me..
[08:57] <guiverc> johnflux, you feel reference to "flash player projector" would be clearer
[08:57] <guiverc> The standalone player (Flash Player Projector) can eb downloaded ...  (blah) added maybe??
[08:58] <johnflux> quintopia: I would be explicit:   "Note - the standalone player is called 'Flash Player Projector'"
[08:58] <guiverc> anyone else agree (or better disagree) - please yell @ me
[08:58] <guiverc> maybe johnflux, i'm going to change minimal possible
[09:01] <guiverc> johnflux, edited.
[09:05] <sere_> what are the point of the src repos?
[09:06] <guiverc> sere_, the source code ..
[09:07] <guiverc> we're using open source; you can view, change & recompile the code, even give that away...
[09:08] <sere_> guiverc: ok perfect i normally just downloaded them.. im going to build netbeans and try to get it to work with java8
[09:08] <sere_> guiverc: thanks for the help
[09:08] <guiverc> sere_, you're most welcome
[09:15] <Guest34640> who are you
[09:20] <sere_> so netbeans requires java 8 and the 18.04 default is jre11.. can i disable jre11 and install from repo?
[09:26] <guiverc> sere_, https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=bionic&searchon=names&keywords=jre shows openjdk-8-jre available for bionic (18.04), but I know nothing about jre/netbeans - its not coffee is it :)
[09:28] <sere_> guiverc: i have 8 installed now but as soon as i install netbeans it installed the defauljre which is 11 and messes everything up
[09:29] <energizer> how do i disable Super-i invert-colors function?
[09:32] <guiverc> sere_, i can't help, but this might https://www.tecmint.com/disable-lock-blacklist-package-updates-ubuntu-debian-apt/

[10:18] <karstenk> Please can somebody help me? I try to upgrade my dist from 16.04 to 17.10 have set to Prompt=normal , but get everytime Upgrades to the development release are only available from the latest supported release. when execute sudo do-release-upgrade -d
[10:20] <brainwash> karstenk: and "sudo do-release-upgrade"?
[10:21] <brainwash> -d probably wants to upgrade to 18.10
[10:21] <brainwash> which is the current development release
[10:21] <SSMAdmin> Remote Desktop (VNC) related:  In 18.04 server with ubuntu-desktop installed, I have activated Remote Desktop in the "Sharing - Sharing Screen" dialog. If family is logged into server to watch media, I am not able to log in to the server as another user from remote computer, I only get a black screen. Shouldn't several users be able to log in to their own desktops simultaniously?
[10:22] <karstenk> I would like to upgrade to 18.04 but Ive read that this is available when 18.04.01 is released. But this should be possible before or not?
[10:22] <karstenk> brainwash the same No new release found
[10:23] <karstenk> Please can somebody tell me, how to force the upgrade?
[10:23] <brainwash> the info about 18.04.1 is right
[10:24] <karstenk> ok understand that, but it should be able to upgrade to 18.04 or not?
[10:24] <ask-ygU5AP56> hi, using lubuntu, I switched configurations for lxpanel w/ an older one, then back again, and see no power applet no more in the tray
[10:24] <ask-ygU5AP56> I understand the power applet is a gnome/ubuntu one, since it shows alongside networkmanager icon
[10:24] <ask-ygU5AP56> so, what program is to be started in order for it to appear?
[10:25] <brainwash> karstenk: not sure how it works, especially since you've set Prompt=normal
[10:26] <karstenk> is there nothing I can do to upgrade? only a fresh install of beaver?
[10:26] <guiverc> karstenk, changing 'xenial' to 'bionic' in sources, followed by a dist-upgrade will force upgrade .. but its not recommended until 18.04.1 is out (26-july-2018 is scheduled date)

[10:44] <dreamon> how can I change that firefox at dialog "open folder" starts thunar instead of dolphin?
[10:47] <MonkeyDust> dreamon  nano ~/.config/mimeapps.list
[10:49] <MonkeyDust> dreamon  disregard that
[10:49] <cfhowlett> dreamon, are you xubuntu or ubuntu?
[10:52] <SSMAdmin> Remote Desktop (VNC) related:  Am I misunderstanding how ANC works?  I had the impression I should be able to remote control server user A's desktop, while someone else is logged in to the server as user B.  I can not get this functionality, so I wonder if I totally misunderstand the use of VNC?
[10:53] <dreamon> xubuntu
[10:53] <cfhowlett> dreamon, settings > preferred applications > File Manager = Thunar
[10:55] <dreamon> cfhowlett, is already thuar there
[11:04] <brainwash> dreamon: check the mime type editor then
[11:05] <brainwash> dreamon: see what application is associated with inode/directory
[11:07] <cfhowlett> brainwash, weird.  I'm on xubuntu and my thunar just works.  doesn't appear in mimeapps.list
[11:07] <brainwash> cfhowlett: it works in the same scenario?
[11:07] <cfhowlett> yep
[11:09] <dreamon> If dolphin is installed it prefers dolphin somehow
[11:10] <brainwash> checked the mime type editor yet?
[11:12] <sasho199> hello everyone, I just installed ubuntu 18.04 and it is freezing on startup, when I press f1 I get the following message on the bottom; unable to run on non-dell system. Can anyone help with that
[11:13] <cfhowlett> whoa!  never seen that one before.  more information please, sasho199
[11:15] <tomreyn> might be this (is it an acer?) https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Acer_Aspire_E5-575#Not_a_Dell_system_error
[11:16] <pedrojbm> hello
[11:17] <lotuspsychje> pedrojbm: welcome, how can we help you?
[11:17] <sasho199> cfhowlett, I got told that in order to install ubuntu 18.04, i needed to remove windows, so i did. Now I get a freeze on startup with a couple of error messages. Other message before; acpi region does not cover the entire command/responce buffer
[11:18] <cfhowlett> so is this an Acer as tomreyn asked you?
[11:18] <nucc1> how do you restart network services on 18.04?
[11:19] <sasho199> cfhowlett, however i still have windows boot manager as one of my boot options, it just says that windows is broken - which is normal cause when i installed ubuntu i selected to format the disk
[11:19] <cfhowlett> sasho199, is this an Acer computer?
[11:20] <sasho199> cfhowlett, no. it's an asus x550vx

[11:23] <cfhowlett> sasho199, it's a known issue with Acer.  Not seeing it appear for an Asus, however.
[11:24] <cfhowlett> any additional info would hep
[11:24] <cfhowlett> help
[11:24] <ledeni> nucc1, sudo systemctl restart network.service
[11:24] <nucc1> ledeni: i'm on ubuntu server btw, and it says it couldn't find network.service
[11:25] <arun__> hy
[11:26] <ledeni> nucc1, check systemctl list-unit-files | grep network
[11:27] <nucc1> ledeni: it looks like i should be systemd-networkd
[11:27] <sasho199> cfhowlett, I think it might be my computer, because it's new. That's why i waited for the new lts to try again, cause i tried 17.10 and i had many problems with it. Could it be that my computer is not compatible with ubuntu
[11:27] <cfhowlett> if it boots windows it'll boot Buntu
[11:27] <sasho199> cfhowlett, the computer was bought august 2017
[11:27] <cfhowlett> does it boot at all?
[11:27] <ledeni> nucc1, check with #ubuntu-server
[11:28] <sasho199> cfhowlett, after i type in my encription code it breaks
[11:31] <helpme_> upon launching retroarch it closes immediately, in terminal it says  'libGL error: No matching fbConfigs or visuals found  libGL error: failed to load driver: swrast  libEGL warning: DRI2: failed to authenticate  Segmentation fault (core dumped)  '  brand new install, using nvidia-driver-390 (propritary, tested) from Software & Updates > Additional Drivers.  how do I fix this?
[11:31] <sasho199> cfhowlett, i dont know what other information i could give you
[11:32] <cfhowlett> sasho199, breaks on encryption and freezes on F1 and "Not a Dell machine)
[11:33] <cfhowlett> So many possibilities.
[11:33] <popeycore> helpme_: known bug, we'll report it to the retroarch devs
[11:33] <cfhowlett> 1. Back up the data.
[11:33] <helpme_> oh its known? ok popeycore, i hope its fixed very soon
[11:35] <sasho199> cfhowlett, i have backed up everything already, that computer holds nothing of value
[11:36] <cfhowlett> Great!  I'd suggest reinstalling 16.04.  Upgrade to 18.04.1 in a few months
[11:42] <BluesKaj> Hi folks
[11:43] <sasho199> cfhowlett, can you explain why you think installing 16.04 would be a good idea, previously i've been told that the problem with 17.10 was that my computer was too new and in 17.10 there is no support for it becuase of that, how would 16.04 be better. I don't understand
[11:44] <cfhowlett> 16.04.4 is a LTS release as is 18.04 but ... 18.4 JUST came out.  18.4.1 will include the first few rounds of bug fixes and my solve your issue.  you can easily test 16.04.4 by making a USB and booting from it.
[11:45] <sasho199> cfhowlett, ok i will try installing 16.04 from my usb flash drive
[11:45] <cfhowlett> bestofluck
[11:48] <sasho199> cfhowlett, where can i download it from
[11:49] <bonhoeffer> i'm struggling to kill nginx

[11:51] <cfhowlett> sasho199, http://releases.ubuntu.com/16.04/
[11:56] <tomreyn> SSMAdmin: yes, you understood the VNC concept properly. it's for one user on one system to watch the desktop of a logged in user at another (or the same) system
[11:57] <tomreyn> SSMAdmin: there is a variant where you can use it to access a graphical login and start a new session of your own on a remote system (using XVNCServer)
[11:58] <slegron> hello
[11:58] <tomreyn> hello slegron
[11:58] <slegron> there is a question
[11:59] <slegron> i install ubuntu
[11:59] <slegron> install drivers for videocard
[11:59] <slegron> but
[11:59] <slegron> display don't supported
[12:00] <SSMAdmin> tomreyn, so with XVNCServer I can achieve similar Virtual Mode VNC functionality as described here: https://www.realvnc.com/en/connect/docs/server-modes.html ?
[12:00] <tomreyn> SSMAdmin: VNC does not provide video acceleration and the frame rate can be low. for higher framerates, there is x2go
[12:02] <tomreyn> SSMAdmin: yes, all these scenarios can be achieved with non proprietary vnc implemnentations.
[12:02] <tomreyn> (and using software available in ubuntu)
[12:03] <tomreyn> SSMAdmin: for added security you'd normally tunnel vnc through ssh
[12:03] <SSMAdmin> tomreyn, that sound good.  Do you know a tutorial for setting this up?
[12:03] <hypercore> what sort of things does a web admin do?
[12:04] <tomreyn> SSMAdmin: no, but i'm sure you'll find one if you search for a while. probbaly not for 18.04 but 16.04.
[12:04] <cfhowlett> hypercore, errrrr. there's this thing called google.
[12:05] <slegron> tomreyn: можно вопрос?
[12:05] <EriC^^> !ru | slegron
[12:06] <hypercore> thanks cfhowlett!!one
[12:06] <tomreyn> SSMAdmin: just keep in mind that you need to use xvncserver to get a graphical remote login to a non-shared account (i think this is described as 'virtual' on the realvnc page you pointed to).
[12:06] <slegron> tomreyn: ok
[12:06] <SSMAdmin> tomreyn, thank you.  I'll be back later, have to make dinner
[12:18] <narmexilss> Wih this wordpress sites: https://pastebin.com/97JNbBPH how can I output a list of non-WP sites through a list like this which has both WP and non-WP sites: https://pastebin.com/cNNGagec
[12:20] <tomreyn> narmexilss: how's this an ubuntu question?
[12:35] <sasho199> cfhowlett, 16.04 freezes before the install, somehow 18.04 runs now after i removed the usb flash drive, but freezes when i try to turn it off
[12:36] <cfhowlett> sasho199, too many issues for me to make a meaningful guess.  Sorry.
[12:37] <sasho199> cfhowlett, is it possible that ubuntu just is not compatible with my computer
[12:38] <cfhowlett> possible but I've never seen it NOT boot a windows PC.
[12:39] <EriC^^> sasho199: play with the ascpi_osi values in grub
[12:39] <EriC^^> *acpi_osi
[12:40] <EriC^^> sasho199: run "sudo strings /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/DSDT | grep Windows" in a terminal
[12:52] <netochka> Hey. Anybody knows how to change a keyboard shortcut in Ubuntu 18.04?
[12:55] <wirehunter> netochka, Settings->Devices->Keyboard
[12:57] <quibbler> Hello all... I'm having an issue with xfce after jumping to 18.04-- The icons for folders, the terminal, and a bunch of other apps are either blank or showing a blank document with a red x... I've tried reinstalling every package I can think of and nothing seems to work
[13:00] <debkad> quibbler: I'm currently on 14.04 but I would guess that related to thunar
[13:02] <jeremy31> Does anyone know how to download kernel source from terminal apt-get source linux-image-$(uname -r) doesn't work in 18.04
[13:02] <jsjolen> An icon in my launcher (Unity, Ubuntu 16.04) does *something* but doesn't launch the application. How can I debug this?
[13:03] <cfhowlett> jsjolen, try launching from the terminal and note the error messages
[13:03] <quibbler> debkad: hm... I'm trying that now
[13:03] <jsjolen> cfhowlett: Yeah, launching from the terminal works (it's emacs25, so I just run emacs25, but I have no idea if that's what the launcher does)
[13:03] <debkad> quibbler: If the issue remain try to install both 'gnome-icon-theme-full' and 'tango-icon-theme'
[13:03] <netochka> Anybody knows how to change a keyboard shortcut in Ubuntu 18.04?
[13:04] <jeremy31> netochka Go into settings/devices/keyboard
[13:05] <quibbler> debkad: the first isn't a package in 18.04
[13:05] <debkad> debkad: what file manager you have?
[13:05] <quibbler> debkad: but I know I have both those themes installed... nadda
[13:05] <netochka> jeremy31, the problem is, unlike ubuntu 16.04, in 18.04 It doesn't change when u click on the specific shortcut. it just shows the default one and when u press your desired keys nothing happens
[13:05] <sasho199> Hello everyone, I am trying to install any version of ubuntu on asus x550vx, I keep having many problems - freezing on startup, freezing on shut down. None of the versions I''ve tried have worked so far. Can anyone help
[13:05] <quibbler> debkad: thunar
[13:07] <netochka> sasho199, is that a zenbook?
[13:07] <sasho199> netochka, I don't think it is
[13:08] <jeremy31> netochka It seems to work for me, I click on the one I want to change and a small pop up appears, then I press the keys I want to use
[13:08] <netochka> sasho199, i too use asus. that's why i asked.
[13:09] <lsd_> is there any similar program to conky nowadays?
[13:09] <netochka> jeremy31, it asks to press backspace first, right? then when it goes to the step that you should input your desired shortcut. and that's where nothing changes for me. i am specifically trying to change the shortcut for "switch to next input language"
[13:09] <sasho199> netochka, I think it is an acpi issue, I am not sure about it though
[13:10] <debkad> quibbler: If you run xfdesktop what happen? ( in terminal of course )
[13:10] <netochka> i see. wish i could help u with that.
[13:10] <jeremy31> netochka It doesn't do the backspace like in 16.04, if you use backspace when the pop up it disables the shortcut
[13:11] <netochka> I get this feeling that my battery drains faster since i've upgraded to 18.04 -_-
[13:11] <netochka> jeremy31, but it only has 2 option. either esc to cancel or backspace :/ how should i proceed then?
[13:12] <jeremy31> netochka When you see that, press the key combo you want to use, then press the green SET button on top right of pop up
[13:13] <quibbler> debkad: one sec, will check... I'm on a tightvnc session atm
[13:13] <netochka> let me try it again
[13:14] <uN0G4> Hi! I can't run simultaneously Youtube (in Firefox or Chrome) video/sound and Skype on ubuntu 18.04. Do you have any similar problem?
[13:14] <uN0G4> Firefox can run youtube with no problem without Skype but with Skype running only Skype is working.
[13:14] <uN0G4> It looks like sound problem
[13:15] <uN0G4> Skype version  8.20.0.9 Firefox version 59.0.2
[13:16] <netochka> jeremy31, i tried again. as it turns out, the one i was trying to set was preoccupied for some other entry and that's why it didn' change. thanks
[13:19] <quibbler> debkad: well... that's an issue... I can't launch x from the terminal for some reason
[13:19] <netochka> uN0G4, u mean when you're using skype the youtube video doesn't play at all or u experience change in the volume?
[13:20] <debkad> quibbler: you get the hint, now you can ask in xfce channel if you want or may be here if someone have an answer for that
[13:20] <uN0G4> netochka: sometimes it wont't play even video sometimes just sound
[13:21] <uN0G4> after sudo alsa force-reload video works but no sound
[13:23] <netochka> uN0G4, as far as i remember skype has an option that does that. meaning it would reduce the sound of call/video chat when u play something else.
[13:24] <uN0G4> netochka: but there is no sound at all
[13:25] <netochka> i see :/
[13:27] <aLeSD> how could I get the snap app into the menu ?
[13:27] <netochka> uN0G4, have u tried libflash?
[13:27] <aLeSD> for example Telegram ...
[13:28] <aLeSD> or skype
[13:28] <cheetahpixie> Alright, folks.
[13:28] <cheetahpixie> I figured out this thing with the display.
[13:28] <cheetahpixie> Anything that is above kernel 4.14 breaks it.
[13:28] <cheetahpixie> 4.14 and down work on both.
[13:29] <uN0G4> netochka: idn what do you mean with libflash
[13:29] <uN0G4> you mean flash player
[13:30] <netochka> uN0G4, try libflashsupport . additional lib for adobe flash player. https://slackbuilds.org/repository/12.2/libraries/libflashsupport/
[13:32] <Dbugger> Hi everyone
[13:32] <Dbugger> Question: Is there a way to grade the performance of my PC?
[13:32] <Dbugger> Lately it has not been the fastest, and I am not sure where the bottleneck could be. RAM, CPU, Motherboard... who knows
[13:32] <uN0G4> netochka: i have disabled flash at all. Youtube nowdays uses HTML5 player. Will this help?
[13:33] <Dbugger> Is there a way to grade all the components of your PC and discover what is slowing down the system?
[13:33] <SwedeMike> Dbugger: you can start by installing lm-sensors and checking if something is too hot and you're thermal throttling: https://askubuntu.com/questions/53762/how-to-use-lm-sensors
[13:33] <netochka> uN0G4, don't know. unfortunately that was as far as i could suggest. :(
[13:37] <Dbugger> SwedeMike, I did that, but the output didnt make much sense to me
[13:38] <noze> Hi, I'm trying to install Windows 10 and I'm having some problems. I downloaded the .iso file and tried dd'ing it onto a usb drive, but when I reboot, and select boot menu, there is one efi entry for ubuntu, but none for windows, even though the iso has a efi directory. when I select the usb drive as boot device, the screen goes black for a second and I'm back in the menu
[13:39] <cfhowlett> errr, this is ubuntu support.  ask ##windows for windows support noze
[13:39] <cfhowlett> noze, wait
[13:40] <cfhowlett> you're still at the USB creation stage, rigth?
[13:40] <noze> cfhowlett: I'm using ubuntu full time, but I have to install windows for work :/
[13:40] <cfhowlett> yeah, how exactly did you create the windows SUB?
[13:41] <noze> dd bs=16MB if=windows.iso of=/dev/sdb
[13:42] <cfhowlett> noze, sounds legit.  your mistake is trying to use grub.  you need to interrupt the bootup and select the USB from the hardware menu
[13:44] <noze> I'm not using grub, by boot menu I meant the one that comes up when I press F12 during the firmware splash screen
[13:44] <cfhowlett> noze, good job
[13:47] <cheetahpixie> You can install the 4.14.x kernels with UKUU btw.
[13:47] <sasho199> hello, im trying to install ubuntu 18.04, following this guide, it removes the freezing and work perfectly until i restart after the nvidia driver is installed, then i get a black screen with a blinking underscore in the top left corner, can anyone help
[13:47] <cheetahpixie> Everything above 4.14.35 has dependency issues, so if anyone else has this, 4.14.35 is the kernel to install.
[13:47] <cheetahpixie> JimBuntu read up
[13:48] <JimBuntu> cheetahpixie, thanks for the mention. Good timing too as I walked in here like 2 minutes ago, lol.
[13:48] <cfhowlett> noze, could you achieve your goals by putting windows in a virtualbox?
[13:49] <netochka> hi JimBuntu
[13:49] <JimBuntu> o/ netochka
[13:49] <noze> cfhowlett: I'm afraid not
[13:51] <cheetahpixie> Awesome.
[13:51] <cheetahpixie> Well, install that kernel and off you are.

[14:00] <deadrom> hi
[14:01] <PRETEXTATO> How can I install gcc-7.3.0 on Ubuntu?
[14:01] <deadrom> how well does hibernate work these days on a decent laptop, say lenovo T series? say 10 years ago it was a poker game, but today?
[14:02] <jeremy31> PRETEXTATO Install Ubuntu 18.04
[14:02] <PRETEXTATO> I can't do that.
[14:05] <PRETEXTATO> It's a lot of work reinstall a system... and I don't have time for that now.
[14:05] <uN0G4> I solve my problem with skype/sound. I install version from skype.com. Skype from software manager (version is the same) did not work.
[14:07] <deadrom> PRETEXTATO, compile from src. backport if possible. #debian's bot has instructions how to do simple backports on "!backports" or stw. but really, at some point you need to upgrade. if possible do a full backup and give upgrading a shot. which version are you on now?
[14:07] <cesar_> hi
[14:08] <PRETEXTATO> 16.04
[14:08] <Guest38520> holaa
[14:08] <deadrom> PRETEXTATO, even simpler, you can directly go from LTS to LTS, which 18.04 is. so you can upgrade the existing installation. I still reommend a full system backup beforehand, you never know.
[14:09] <blackflow> you can't. LTS to LTS requires 18.04.01
[14:09] <deadrom> whoa
[14:09] <blackflow> I'd go with src deb and backporting.
[14:09] <blackflow> s/01/1
[14:09] <deadrom> blackflow, I'm staggered. how come? by design or bug?
[14:09] <PRETEXTATO> I see.
[14:10] <blackflow> deadrom: by design.
[14:10] <deadrom> but why?
[14:10] <blackflow> because 18.04 is not LTS. 18.04.1 (and onward) is.
[14:10] <Guest38520> hi, who can I change the source code of ubuntu in my pc?
[14:10] <alfepu> hola alguien me puede ayudar
[14:11] <Guest38520> dime alfepu
[14:11] <blackflow> !es
[14:11] <deadrom> Guest38520, download src, modify, compile. if you want the src change to go to repos, file a bug report, add patch, wait for it to be incorporated
[14:13] <deadrom> .1 in jula/august -.- how many have found out the hard way yet?
[14:13] <deadrom> http://releases.ubuntu.com/18.04/ says LTS
[14:14] <blackflow> yes, Bionic Beaver is LTS. however the actual LTS, with regards to upgrades from previous version, is assumed with first point release.
[14:15] <blackflow> I guess it's made that way to allow bugs be found by users right after the release.
[14:16] <hggdh> and because we -- the sysadmins -- are extremely wary of anything shiny new
[14:16] <blackflow> After all, Ubuntu is not really released when actually ready, but by a pre-set date. With that, any real world testing is done by the users, and it is hoped major bugs would be found like that, and fixed with .1
[14:16] <hggdh> as a rule of thumb, no brand new version of something is installed until the first fix pack is released
[14:18] <blackflow> personally I prefer the rolling release model. everything needs testing anyway. even the "service packs".
[14:20] <rw0644> Hi, I just installed Ubuntu 18.04 on a laptop with Nvidia Optimus and selected Nvidia proprietary driver from settings, then enbled prime sincronization to remove screen tearing. When using the nvidia gpu everything works fine, however when using the intel gpu there's still screen tearing. Any way to fix it?
[14:20] <blackflow> here this morning, seven months after the release of 17.10, changing a single sysctl caused permanent meltdown of the system (even after reverting the sysctl), requiring full reinstallation.  so yeah... age of software means nothing. test it, always, every change.
[14:21] <deadrom> hggdh, that defeats the purpose of a "stable release". up to 12.04 one could expect the release to be a release, if stability forces us to look at it that way it means it can only be treated as another RC then.
[14:21] <blackflow> deadrom: who said aynthing about "stable"? there's no "stable" in LTS :)
[14:22] <deadrom> which would lead to the follow-up question why the roadmap has alpha, beta, rc1, rc2 then. to what point. if 4 test stages are not enough there is something wrong with it in general.
[14:22] <blackflow> "stable" is overrated and often misunderstood. It actually means stable ABI/API, not "this won't ever crash kind of stable".
[14:22] <deadrom> blackflow, that was a lot different not too long ago
[14:22] <deadrom> and still holds for other distros.
[14:22] <blackflow> deadrom: that's why Canonical wants to abandon those releases and go with testing weeks, or whatsitcalled
[14:23] <oerheks> blackflow, please, LTS aims at stability, get your facts right
[14:23] <blackflow> oerheks: aiming at != 100% achieving it
[14:23] <blackflow> I've had 16.04 meltdown over botched kernel upgrades, a few times.
[14:23] <hid> rw0644: is your cpu overheating? mine is always at 70°C
[14:23] <oerheks> if you just spread opinions, this is technical support.. move this to #ubuntu-discuss
[14:23] <blackflow> so yeah... software sucks. there will always be bugs. test it and forget about "stable".
[14:24] <oerheks> please stop, thanks
[14:24] <cfhowlett> +1
[14:24] <deadrom> blackflow, you cannot catch everything in 20000+ packages, but I'm not discussing the agenda either.
[14:24]  * blackflow shrugs. y'all can fantasize that LTS = Stable all you want. your choice.
[14:25] <deadrom> ok this is not helping me - anyone, preferably a dev: can I officially go from 16.04.x to current 18.04?
[14:25] <blackflow> deadrom: try it and see?
[14:25] <deadrom> anyone *else*
[14:25] <oerheks> deadrom, yes, when 18.04.1 arrives
[14:25] <deadrom> oerheks, I asked for current, so that's a no.
[14:26] <debkad> o.o
[14:26] <cfhowlett> deadrom, you can force it now with do-release-upgrade -d
[14:26] <cfhowlett> but I wouldn't
[14:27] <eddyready> rw0644: try thi. It fixed the tearing for me https://askubuntu.com/questions/945895/solution-to-intel-graphics-screen-tearing-flickering-causes-excessive-fan-use
[14:28] <deadrom> cfhowlett, ok, still irritates me after years of "LTS release means you can hop on" but at least I know what's what.
[14:29] <hid> Hey, I tried to turn the nvidia gpu off but when I select prime-select intel and reboot, `cat /proc/acpi/bbswitch` tells me it is still on
[14:29] <deadrom> eddyready, https://xkcd.com/963/ :)
[14:30] <hid> and when I check the idle temperature, it is indeed 15°C more
[14:30] <hid> whilst no heavy task is running
[14:32] <blackflow> alright. serious question. upgraded 17.10 to 18.04. after reboot, and unlocking of encrypted root, the console starts flickering and it doesn't switch to gui and login screen, everything freezes. rebooted to rescue env, removed nvidia, (syslog shows no errors from previous boot), same thing.
[14:32] <andy_wfc> If I change an IP in /etc/network/interfaces what do I have to do to make that change actually take effect? I assumed systemctl restart networking but that doesn't do it
[14:33] <NoImNotNineVolt> jpleau: 2.4.7 with backported security updates still doesn't include the IndexOptions UseOldDateFormat fix for the mod_index bug introduced in 2.4.0
[14:33] <NoImNotNineVolt> (also, sorry about the extremely delayed response :P)
[14:35] <rw0644> hid: cpu is not  overheating for me, temperature is 40.5°C
[14:35] <rw0644> eddyready: thanks, trying that now
[14:35] <lagbox> morning
[14:36] <ioria> andy_wfc,  try    sudo ifdown myinterface   && sudo ifup myinterface
[14:40] <rw0644_> eddyready: tearing is gone, thanks
[15:06] <morphyeys> hello guys
[15:11] <MikeRL> Hmm. I've upgraded to 18.04. Is there anything I can do to help test for memory leaks? I have a few hours now.
[15:11] <oerheks> MikeRL, your fresh gnome should be fixed
[15:12] <MikeRL> oerheks, I mean memory leaks besides the big one.
[15:12] <MikeRL> Aren't there others?
[15:13] <oerheks> no, gnome 3.28 is clean

[15:17] <oerheks> OnceMe, is this a LVM setup?
[15:22] <MikeRL> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1423773
[15:22] <OnceMe> oerheks: how to check
[15:22] <MikeRL> I wonder if there are other leaks in other places.
[15:22] <OnceMe> I just mappped to /mnt/mydisk and did mapping
[15:23] <oerheks> MikeRL, that one is from 2015...
[15:23] <oerheks> you are fine now
[15:24] <MikeRL> I can reproduce it. And memory usage keeps growing. I think GNOME shell uses more RAM than Firefox, and Firefox is set to only store cache in RAM.
[15:25] <DuncanT> Any chance somebody could pastebin me a xenial /etc/apt/sources.list please? I've just done something predictably stupid while not able to log into another machine to grab a copy
[15:26] <cfhowlett> http://repogen.simplylinux.ch/index.php  DuncanT
[15:27] <ioria> MikeRL, alt +f2; type 'r' and enter ; see if it fixes
[15:27] <DuncanT> cfhowlett: Perfect, thanks
[15:28] <cfhowlett> happy2help!
[15:29] <MikeRL> Pressing ALT+F2 and typing R just shaved off .3GB of RAM.
[15:29] <jens_> hi everyone!! Anyone can give me a hint configuring VPN? I use 18.04 and use Gnome Network Manager to configure connections. Everytime I configure OpenVPN (with NordVPN) the DNS is leaked. This is a known issue since I don't remember, also appeared in 16.04. I hoped it disappeared in 18.04, but it didn't. I can's solve this. Does anyone knows the DNS leak issue with OpenVPN? update resolv.conf didn't help, IkeV2 does not work etc... What can I
[15:29] <jens_> do? Thanks
[15:31] <MikeRL> You know what? GNOME 3 is a mess. Sad because if they fixed the leaks it would be good.
[15:32] <oerheks> just .3 gb of ram ..? that does not sound as a leak, just moving active memory around to swap
[15:33] <MikeRL> Nothing was in swap.
[15:34] <ioria> MikeRL, "It is possible that a fix for the memory leak could feature as part of a future GNOME 3.28 point release, or come as part of the GNOME 3.30 release in October."
[15:34] <ioria> MikeRL, https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2018/03/gnome-shell-has-a-memory-leak-and-it-might-not-be-fixed-for-ubuntu-18-04-lts
[15:35] <thimanshu> hello, i have created a usb unbinding script to decrease powery consuption by changing autosuspend delay to 0 , i have tried running it as systemd service and gnome autostart but no effect. I am using tlp and powertop(display the power draw only) too
[15:35] <thimanshu> help me running the script
[15:35] <MikeRL> ioria, Have you experienced leaks using GNOME 3 on Ubuntu 18.04? The main leak was fixed, thank God.
[15:37] <ioria> MikeRL, not yet, i still use unity and you need al least a couples of hours to test it
[15:37] <MikeRL> ioria, I don't blame you. IMO Unity was better.
[15:38] <MikeRL> ioria, I got used to it so much, too. Maybe I'll install it.
[15:38] <ioria> MikeRL,  you can install unity-session, if you want
[15:38] <MikeRL> And wave goodbye to the memory leaks in the process. LOL.
[15:39] <ioria> MikeRL,  ok, but keep in mind that unity7 it's not maintained anymore ...
[15:40] <MikeRL> ioria, Is there a community spin off Unity?
[15:40] <thimanshu> anyone ?
[15:40] <ioria> MikeRL,  i'am aware of some projects, but so  far , nothing 'real'
[15:42] <MikeRL> ioria, Thanks for your help. I hope they fix GNOME 3 in full. The main leak seems fixed, but how many others remain?
[15:42] <Sven_vB> how do I query the current user's default monospace font name and size?
[15:42] <ioria> MikeRL, yeah
[15:42] <Sven_vB> from shell or python or perl
[15:42] <MikeRL> ioria, and it's not like memory leaks are easy to debug. I wonder if I can debug them somehow.
[15:43] <MikeRL> And report said leaks to launchpad.net.
[15:43] <MikeRL> Does anyone know of any advice for debugging memory leaks?
[15:43] <curlyears> *sheesh*
[15:44] <MikeRL> I guess play around with GNOME and check System Monitor?
[15:44] <ioria> MikeRL, it's deeper
[15:44] <Thedarkb> My mouse is frozen
[15:44] <Thedarkb> and I can't get my system to sleep anymore.
[15:45] <vtnt> Hey everyone
[15:45] <Thedarkb> This has started happening about a month ago.
[15:45] <MikeRL> ioria, Please elaborate. How can I help debug memory leaks?
[15:45] <curlyears> OK.  About 10 days ago, i rteceived a notification from the FreeCAD folks that there was an update being pushed.  So, I accept3ewd it and allowed it to install.  DStrange thing:  after it finished installingh, it informed me that my computer needed to be restareted for thew changes to be made permanent.  Thin king little of this, I reboot4ed my sys
[15:45] <curlyears> tem.  Now, it won't let anyone log in.
[15:46] <ioria> MikeRL, https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Linux_Applications_Debugging_Techniques/Leaks
[15:46] <Thedarkb> I've never had anything like this happen under Debian.
[15:46] <Thedarkb> Can't wait to switch back but unfortunately that's not an option right now.
[15:46] <Thedarkb> So why won't my system sleep and why does my mouse freeze when I try?
[15:47] <curlyears> at the password: prompt (the system knows that username I want), I type in my password.  The splash screen sits there for a few seconds, the screen goes black, and it asks me for my passwrod again.  It does this over and over again.
[15:47] <Thedarkb> Oh, it just came back.
[15:47] <Thedarkb> No indication why.
[15:48] <Thedarkb> It's a trackpoint, which is just a generic PS/2 mouse internally.
[15:48] <ioria> curlyears, FreeCAD from the official repos or from where ?
[15:49] <Sven_vB> curlyears, looks like your graphical session can't initialize
[15:49] <Sven_vB> curlyears, use a text console to check errors in syslog
[15:50] <vtnt> Sorry for the join/part spam..
[15:50] <Sven_vB> curlyears, was the update notification specific about FreeCAD only, or could it have been a notification about multiple available updates? maybe your graphics card drivers got updated at the same time.
[15:50] <cfhowlett> !quietirc | vtnt
[15:52] <curlyears> ioria: official repository
[15:52] <curlyears> Sven_vB:  that's is rathewr difficult when I can'/t log in to the system
[15:53] <Sven_vB> curlyears, a text console should be available by pressing Ctrl+Alt+F2
[15:53] <ioria> curlyears, open a console and  sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade+
[15:53] <curlyears> Sven_vB:  it was MARKED as a FreeCAD update (daily update)
[15:53] <Sven_vB> curlyears, also consider installing SSH ;)
[15:54] <curlyears> sven:  ctrl_alt_F2 will bring up a text console even if I'm not logged in?
[15:54] <vtnt> I have a silly question. How do I turn off the tap dragging feature? I am running Ubuntu 18.04. I tried to configure it through /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/40-libinput.conf setting the Option "TappingDrag" "false" just before EndSection on the Section which says MatchIsTouchpad "on". I actually tried to add it on touchscreen and tablet-settings as well, but can't seem to get it to function. It's driving me
[15:54] <vtnt> insane :P
[15:54] <Sven_vB> curlyears, then there's still a chance it used Ubuntu's default update mechanism and that one jumped at the opportunity to also update drivers.
[15:55] <Sven_vB> curlyears, yes, the text console should greet you with a login prompt.
[15:55] <Sven_vB> curlyears, to go back to the graphical terminal, try other combinations of Ctrl+Alt+ some F key
[15:57] <curlyears> Sven_vB:  All I know for sure is that it isn't a hardware issue, as I am currently in a Live Session from the DVD, and evertythihng works
[15:57] <Sven_vB> is "terminal" the right word for the graphical thing that sits next to my text consoles?
[15:57] <Sven_vB> curlyears, oh, if it's on the same machine, you can probably just mount your log partition to read syslog
[15:58] <curlyears> Sven_vB:  my syslog files are gzipped, and gzip is not workiung under the live session, for some rason
[15:58] <vtnt> I've tried to disable the damned tap-dragging gesture since 18.04 came out. Anyone use a touchpad-enabled laptop to run Ubuntu? I am quite confused on how is the option not functioning.
[15:58] <Sven_vB> curlyears, maybe you have to install gunzip
[15:59] <Sven_vB> curlyears, if you like GUI, you could also install file-roller
[16:00] <curlyears> -rw-r-----  1 syslog            adm       4582 Apr 22 12:35 syslog.2.gz

[16:16] <vukmijuk> hello
[16:23] <oerheks> curlyears, file a bugreport to that freecad repo/maintainers
[16:24] <ask-ygU5AP56> hey
[16:25] <curlyears> man, theree's all kinds of errors with somehting c alled "acopes" in the syslog fiel frim April 22.  I mean dozens, posibly hundreds
[16:25] <zzero1> I 've set an ip for eth0 using the ip parameter for the initramfs. When the system boots I get a very verbose output of the static ip. How can I disable that ip-config text showing the ip address and the mac of eth0 ?
[16:26] <curlyears> oerheks:  yes, I may just do that.  FDirst, however, I'd like to get my machine working properly
[16:28] <SlidingHorn> zzero1: I may be wrong, but I think you'd have to quiet the whole boot - I'm not sure you can disable individual messages
[16:28] <curlyears> what ARE al,l these "scope" errors?
[16:30] <oerheks> maybe they are errors, or just warnings, without the log no-one can tell
[16:33] <curlyears> the app in my browser (mozilla) is not displaying the "control mennu: that let's mew minimize the screen, etc.  What a, I doing wrong?  (note,. I've tried hitting <esc> a few timres,  no joy)
[16:40] <curlyears> damn it...when one thing goes wrong, EVERY fricken thing goes wrong.  :(
[16:40] <zzero1> SlidingHorn: I was wondering the same thing
[16:40] <zzero1> basically this is my question
[16:41] <zzero1> is there any way to quiet, only that ip-config message ?
[16:42] <SlidingHorn> zzero1: not that I'm aware of - I believe it's all or nothing.  Someone may correct me, however
[16:42] <curlyears> zzero1P:  I don't believe so, short of going in to the source pf the program or utility that is generating that message and deleting the offending code
[16:43] <curlyears> slidinghorn:>  this is one reason we are glad that we have free and total access tot he sources for ubuntu
[16:44] <neon_squirrel> Hey guys. Will you guys assist with Ubuntu issues if it's in a chroot on a Chromebook, or is there a better channel for that?
[16:44] <curlyears> GADS, for having 1750 people connected to this channel, things arew dead queit...amazing
[16:45] <Thedarkb> uuuugh
[16:45] <SlidingHorn> neon_squirrel: what version and flavor are you using?  What's the actual question? :)
[16:45] <Thedarkb> My PS/2 pointing device is misbehaving again.
[16:45] <curlyears> 1704 now
[16:45] <oerheks> what do you mean with: <curlyears> the app in my browser (mozilla) is not displaying the "control mennu: .. what app?
[16:46] <oerheks> half support questions will never be answered
[16:46] <curlyears> can *ANYONE* assit me in gettinbg out of "full screen" display mode in ozilla (most recent version)
[16:46] <neon_squirrel> SlidingHorn, 16.04.3, Ubuntu GNOME. One specific website the wit is trying to use continually asks her to enable Flash.
[16:46] <Thedarkb> curlyears, hit F11
[16:46] <oerheks> curlyears, F11
[16:46] <oerheks> lolz
[16:47] <Thedarkb> alt+return used to be the standard.
[16:47] <neon_squirrel> SlidingHorn, The partner repo is enabled, adobe-flashplugin is installed, and flash is allowed on the site. I've checked the Ubuntu forums, checked Google's Product forums, and nothing seems to work. I've also tried in Chromium as well as Chrome. I'm at a loss.
[16:47] <Thedarkb> Then it became a mix of alt+return and f11
[16:47] <oerheks> neon_squirrel, click enable, page will reload and flash is active.. not sure chromebook supports flasj
[16:48] <curlyears> oerheks:  I am using a web based IRC client.  IU somehow managed  to get the display into "full screen" mode, and cannot access the tools to vchange that, or to close the program, etc.  They are NOT being displayed at the top left corner of the screen )or anywhere else I can see)
[16:48] <Thedarkb> curlyears, press f11
[16:48] <Thedarkb> Trust me.
[16:48] <curlyears> THANK YOU.  F11 did the trick.
[16:49] <neon_squirrel> oerheks, I did lol. It's as if the Flash object is in a container and just doesn't see it.
[16:49] <Thedarkb> curlyears, It's like that on all platforms.
[16:49] <Thedarkb> and most browsers
[16:49] <Thedarkb> Most applications even.
[16:50] <techAddict> +
[16:50] <curlyears> Thedarkb:  I did not  know that, thanks.,
[16:51] <Thedarkb> Older applications and games tend to use alt+return for full screen.
[16:52] <curlyears> oerhgek: follows one example:
[16:52] <curlyears> Apr 21 15:16:08 bigboy com.canonical.Unity.Scope.Home[1570]: message repeated 5 times: [ (unity-scope-home:2177): unity-scope-home-WARNING **: scope.vala:247: Failed to get list of remote scopes: Request

[16:55] <zzero1> curlyears: so in a way I need to silence the pf kernel messages ?
[16:55] <Sbur3> ubuntu 18.04. Laptop computer. the bar on the bottom of the screen with the open programs is split in two. how do I « merge » them into one?
[16:56] <curlyears> EriC^^:  probably not, but I don't know sionce I have nrever used proxiea
[16:57] <curlyears> zzero1:  well, I don't think you hgave to go that far, frankly.  Just locate which sdource file immplementsa the segment olf the boot process that is issuing tht message, and edit the message out pof existecne.
[16:58] <curlyears> is there any standard way of backinbg an update OFF your system which is guaranteed to return your system to what is was prior to the update?
[16:59] <Thedarkb> I wish.
[16:59] <Thedarkb> The last year or so of patches have been a shit show for me.
[17:00] <neon_squirrel> Thedarkb, have you seen the Windows 10 update shit show recently lol?
[17:00] <Thedarkb> Haven't used Windows since Vista.
[17:00] <curlyears> yeah,   I can't for the life of me understand why the FreeCAD people would think it is OK to fricj around with my basic softwararchitecture with out least warning me of it.
[17:00] <Thedarkb> Well
[17:00] <Thedarkb> To be honest.
[17:01] <Thedarkb> The last version of windows I used regularly was 2000
[17:01] <curlyears> Thedarkb:  yeah, me too...  ;)
[17:01] <debkad> I have winXP and recently ( for 2 weeks ago ) I installed Win7, just for fun :D
[17:02] <neon_squirrel> I try to stay away from Windows, but I'm frontline support for Dell, so I see it all the time. The latest update from the fall literally kills SSDs, updates will kill USB ports, and all sorts of shit.
[17:02] <curlyears> oerhekL  diud you see the sample error mesage I posted?
[17:03] <Thedarkb> 3.0 was.... crashy. 3.11 was great, dead stable. 98 was also quite unstable, 98SE was okayish, 2000 was perfect, Vista just BSOD'd constantly for seemingly no reason and 7 has the worst user interface since Windows 1.0

[17:03] <oerheks> curlyears, it is not an error, just a warning... but without the full log, nothing to say about it
[17:04] <neon_squirrel> Dude, if 7 has the worst UI,  you've obviously never seen 8.
[17:04] <Thedarkb> Never tried it.
[17:04] <Thedarkb> I ditched Windows when I used 7 for the first time.
[17:04] <curlyears> OK...I haven't uploaded a file tol a file sewrver vfor ages:  where would you like me to put it, and hbow do I do that, oerhek?

[17:23] <TheEagerPadawan> ok come all sit around since the padawan has a horror story to tell
[17:23] <TheEagerPadawan> so yesterday i decide to update my desktop from 17.10 to 18.04
[17:23] <TheEagerPadawan> now that is all honkey dorry, until i decided to reboot
[17:23] <SlidingHorn> TheEagerPadawan: let's keep it all on one line if possible
[17:23] <ghansham> hello
[17:24] <ghansham> Is anyone there?
[17:24] <SlidingHorn> ghansham: hi :)  Have an Ubuntu support question?
[17:24] <ghansham> yes?
[17:24] <ghansham> what is it?
[17:25] <SlidingHorn> ghansham: I was asking you if you had one.  This is the Ubuntu support channel.
[17:25] <ghansham> oh sorry
[17:26] <TheEagerPadawan> now the horror begin when i had to provide my password to decrypt. Apperently the update broke cryptsetup after booting up as usually it asks me for the password to unlik sda3_crypt. When i provided it return the following error cryptsetup(sda3_crypt): cryptsetup failed, bad password or optionscheck the error messages by pressing esc i get the following:WARNING: Failed to connect to lvmetad.
[17:26] <TheEagerPadawan> Failling back to device scanning volume group "ubuntu-vg" not found cannot process volume group ubuntu-vg. After a few failed logins i get dropped in a shell though any thought on how to i can fixed this?
[17:29] <TheEagerPadawan> Alternatively I used a unix live cd and was able to decrypt the luks partition, which validates the point of the update braeking something. Now the issue on this branch of the problem solving quest is that i need to figure out how to decrypt my private folder (yes i do have an additional encrypted home folder).  Which you try to recover with ecrpytfs (after adding the multiverse repos), then it
[17:30] <TheEagerPadawan> asks me for a passprase which i do not have ... FRUSTRATION LEVEL OVER 9000!. Sorry for the caps but come on an update shouldn't brick your device
[17:30] <TheEagerPadawan> and there you have it ... my last 11 hours of frustration
[17:31] <Blue_Spider133> anyone here?
[17:31] <SlidingHorn> !ask | Blue_Spider133
[17:32] <TheEagerPadawan> SlidingHorn ... could all fit it on one line :(
[17:32] <Blue_Spider133> How can i install chrome in ubuntu 18.04
[17:32] <SlidingHorn> TheEagerPadawan: you did your best, that's the important part
[17:32] <juho_> !patience
[17:32] <SlidingHorn> Blue_Spider133: Chrome itself isn't supported, you'd have to install from Google, themselves.  There is "chromium-browser" which you can install by    sudo apt install chromium-browser
[17:33] <Blue_Spider133> Is chromium working well on ubuntu 18.04?
[17:34] <DJones> Blue_Spider133: It works fine for me
[17:34] <SlidingHorn> Blue_Spider133: I haven't seen any issues.  Chromium is based on the open source chrome base - doesn't include the "google-y" intrusions, etc.  better in my opinion.
[17:34] <Blue_Spider133> OK i'll download it now
[17:35] <TheEagerPadawan> heck i would say chromium is even better then chrome, since it doesn't have all the bloatware google dumps into it
[17:35] <SlidingHorn> TheEagerPadawan: that's what I just said, lol
[17:35] <TheEagerPadawan> great mind think alike xD
[17:36] <TheEagerPadawan> hmmm ticket in regards to my earlier problem, no solution though ... thanks devs
[17:36] <Blue_Spider133> So how long you guys started using linux
[17:36] <SlidingHorn> Blue_Spider133: That's not really on topic in this channel.  Check out #ubuntu-offtopic for random chat :)
[17:39] <Blue_Spider133> :(
[17:41] <SlidingHorn> TheEagerPadawan: Please don't PM folks - It's better for everyone to see any solutions offered, and a bit inconsiderate :/
[17:46] <analogical> how do I check what version of Ubuntu I'm running??
[17:46] <Sbur3> How do I make the task bar one and not seperated?
[17:48] <SlidingHorn> analogical: cat /etc/issue     or   cat /etc/lsb-release   or   lsb_release -crid
[17:49] <kostkon> Sbur3, which desktop environment are you using
[17:49] <SlidingHorn> Sbur3: Do you have a screenshot to show what you mean?   Also, which version and flavor OS?
[17:49] <analogical> SlidingHorn, I'm sorry but I don't know what that means
[17:49] <SlidingHorn> analogical: any one of those 3 commands will show you which version you're running
[17:50] <analogical> SlidingHorn, please tell me there's a simpler way to get the info
[17:50] <SlidingHorn> analogical: if you're going to run a linux system, you're going to need to not be afraid of the terminal
[17:50] <kostkon> analogical, System Settings → About
[17:51] <kostkon> analogical, or probably System Settings → Details
[17:53] <morphyeys> hello guys!
[17:53] <john1990> how can I tar files, by size, recursively?
[17:53] <kostkon> morphyeys, hi
[17:53] <tyamurka> ХЕЛО
[17:53] <lapaga> Is there a conky-manager or similar for 18.04?
[17:53] <john1990> that is I have a large dir tree, and only want to tar files smaller than say 20M
[17:54] <morphyeys> what's the best way to install the latest version of Eclipse on Ubuntu 18.04?
[17:54] <SlidingHorn> !ru | tyamurka
[17:54] <kostkon> morphyeys, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-make
[17:54] <morphyeys> or maybe to install it from the software manager?\
[17:55] <tyamurka> ok)
[17:55] <morphyeys> how to check out the version in the ubuntu software?
[17:55] <SlidingHorn> morphyeys: if you want the actual ubuntu-supported method --   sudo apt install eclipse
[17:55] <SlidingHorn> morphyeys: also see:  /msg ubottu latest
[17:55] <kostkon> morphyeys, see the link about Ubuntu make
[17:58] <morphyeys> maybe I will just install it from the ubuntu software it will be fine I guess
[17:59] <morphyeys> thank you guys
[18:00] <morphyeys> kostkon and SlidingHorn
[18:00] <SlidingHorn> john1990: what flavor & version OS?
[18:00] <john1990> sorry. xubuntu 18
[18:01] <SlidingHorn> john1990: (asking in #debian probably isn't the way to go, then) ;)
[18:01] <john1990> fair enough :)

[18:01] <Rockwood> heloo
[18:01] <tyamurka> hi
[18:02] <Rockwood> i am facing screen red issue
[18:02] <SlidingHorn> john1990: This should help:  https://serverfault.com/questions/232511/tar-avoid-archiving-of-files-larger-than-certain-size
[18:02] <Rockwood> unable to see pure white on screen
[18:03] <SlidingHorn> !details | Rockwood
[18:03] <Rockwood> some issue with color scheme
[18:03] <SlidingHorn> Rockwood: also, please don't use "Enter" as punctuation.  Try to keep your question to as few lines as possible.
[18:03] <john1990> SlidingHorn: thx will give it a look
[18:04] <Rockwood> from where can i check my colour adjustment ?
[18:04] <Rockwood> i have ubuntu 18.04
[18:05] <TheEagerPadawan> SlidingHorn any thoughts on my issue?
[18:05] <john1990> Slidinghorn: damn, really was "easier than you'd think". thx again!
[18:05] <SlidingHorn> TheEagerPadawan: No clue
[18:05] <SlidingHorn> john1990: no problem
[18:07] <Paradox55> So I just installed Lutris with steam and steam is crashing every 2-3 minutes due to steamwebhelper.exe errors. Thoughts?
[18:07] <Paradox55> using 3.7 stable
[18:07] <Rockwood> SlidingHorn, i just install gnome-color-manager
[18:08] <SlidingHorn> Paradox55: you'll have to ask Lutris support
[18:08] <Paradox55> It's not a lutris issue this is just steam running on wine
[18:08] <Paradox55> I'm only using lutris as the launcher
[18:09] <SlidingHorn> Paradox55: well wine 3.7 isn't from the repositories, either, so that's probably something for #winehq
[18:09] <shayr> Good evening. Does anyone know if there's a reason do-release-upgrade from 14.04 to 16.04 wants to install apache on a system where (on the 14.04) it is not installed?
[18:09] <DJones> Paradox55: That could be anything, you'd need to ask the steam dev's or the wine dev's, why not just install steam under ubuntu and try that, that might narrow down the problem
[18:10] <morphyeys> how to install the java runtime environment JRE and JDK
[18:10] <tyamurka> sudo apt-get install
[18:11] <tyamurka> oracle or openjdk?
[18:11] <Rockwood> any help possibility ?
[18:12] <ishabaaka> yes
[18:12] <ishabaaka> how can i install JDK ?
[18:12] <tyamurka> i,m not answer you question(
[18:12] <DJones> !java | morphyeys I'd be tempted to follow the instructions for Oracle Java, Ive found minecraft doesn't work with open JDK versions
[18:13] <ishabaaka> 01043333333333333333333333333333
[18:13] <ishabaaka> thnks
[18:13] <oerheks> Rockwood, reset the monitor to fabric standards, see if that solves anything, 'red issue' sounds like a hardware setting
[18:16] <Rockwood> reset the monitor to fabric standards  hows ?
[18:17] <oerheks> with its own buttons/menu
[18:17] <tyamurka> reed instruction you monitor
[18:17] <SlidingHorn> s/fabric/factory
[18:18] <oerheks> else check your cable, bad cable can corrupt colours too
[18:18] <Eirikrrrr> Hey hoy awesoome people :) in an attempt to avoid the gnome desktop completely, i installed  ubuntu from the minimal installer without installing a desktop. I installed unity after with the  command 'sudo apt install ubuntu-unity-desktop' . all in virtualbox.  For some reason nothing seems to move smoothly. there is a red  marking where normally the box would just move (as in picture) and when  switching workplace etc. it just jumps directly
[18:21] <Rockwood> oerheks> with its own buttons/menu  i have laptop not desktop
[18:21] <Rockwood> ooh my god
[18:22] <Rockwood> night mode is enable
[18:22] <Rockwood> how to chge this
[18:23] <SlidingHorn> Rockwood: you'll have to consult the manual for your monitor.
[18:23] <oerheks> nightmode is in your systemsettings somewhere
[18:23] <morphyeys> DJones: didn't work out
[18:23] <SlidingHorn> oh, that's an Ubuntu thing?  I did not know that
[18:24] <senaps> i have managed to remove my dpkg file from `/usr/bin/dpkg` i have used the solutions from askubuntu, where i need to download the dpkg, and then `ar x` thing, `tar xf data.tar.xz` and then copy /usr/bin/
[18:24] <senaps> but it doesn't do anything and still am not able to install it
[18:25] <tomreyn> Eirikrrrr: which ubuntu release? do you have 3d accelleration enabled in virtualbox for this vm? whzat runs on the host? install guest additions. until you have, if the current graphical desktop is unusable, you can boot with kernel parameter vga=791
[18:25] <morphyeys> DJones: it's saying that the package is virtual?
[18:26] <morphyeys> should I try $ sudo apt install openjdk-11-jdk
[18:26] <morphyeys> I need JRE or JDK to run Eclipse
[18:26] <SlidingHorn> senaps: which askubuntu question are you following?  A link would be helpful.  Also, "doesn't do anything" is inaccurate...what errors do the commands you use provide?  (use a pastebin for multiple lines)
[18:27] <SlidingHorn> senaps: another helpful detail:  What version & flavor OS are you using?
[18:27] <Eirikrrrr> tomreyn: hey.. it's ubuntu 18.04, and i have enabled 3d accelleration. it is totally usable, but just don't look as it should
[18:27] <Rockwood> thanks in display i fouund that is now  fine
[18:27] <Rockwood> thanks
[18:27] <oerheks> Rockwood, have fun!
[18:27] <Eirikrrrr> and i run ubuntu 16.04 on the host
[18:28] <Rockwood> thanks
[18:30] <senaps> SlidingHorn,  https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/tKhnYKX3QN/ here is what you asked for
[18:31] <senaps> SlidingHorn, in first method i have pasted, i get to the last command they have asked, and then when i want to test install something, i can't and get the pasted error.
[18:36] <renn0xtk9> I want to install a package (flightgear ) but then I get this https://pastebin.com/3L7V2vcV
[18:36] <senaps> people anybody able to help me? i removed dpkg and can't do anything in my system. neither update or installing new apps works.
[18:37] <SlidingHorn> senaps: well, your first problem is that you're following a guide from a release from 6 years ago.  The guide itself may be useful, but you're going to need the right version of dpkg for your release, which is here: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/artful/+source/dpkg
[18:37] <renn0xtk9> From what I understand from https://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/qtdeclarative-abi-5-5-0 that package that blocks ( qtdeclarative-abi-5-5-0)  is a virutal package tha tpoint to libqt5qml5
[18:37] <renn0xtk9> which is alreay installed
[18:37] <renn0xtk9> I dont't know how to diagnostic /solve
[18:37] <senaps> SlidingHorn, yup, i downloaded the latest version from that site.
[18:37] <spikebike> renn0xtk9: what OS are you running?
[18:38] <tomreyn> senaps: what's the guide you are following? removing dpkg just sounds plain wrong.
[18:38] <jollyjester> hello
[18:38] <spikebike> if I removed dpkg I'd just backup anything important and reinstall
[18:38] <tyamurka> HI
[18:38] <Bj0rk> 2000 people only? Our distribution is dead Canonical... :(
[18:38] <spikebike> (you should have backups only)
[18:38] <SlidingHorn> senaps: not according to your pastebin.  You downloaded 1.17.5 - Your release uses 1.18.24
[18:39] <kk4ewt> Bj0rk, how many people know what irc is
[18:39] <renn0xtk9> spikebike KDE Neon it is a ubuntu derivative of 16.04
[18:39] <senaps> i have both 1.17 and 1.18. so i may have mistaken while coping files.
[18:39] <Bj0rk> I come from Dalnet, nice to meet you.
[18:39] <SlidingHorn> senaps: It's probably *possible* to fix your installation, however, I think spikebike has a point...you may be better off backing up anything important and reinstalling
[18:39] <senaps> let me remove the dpk folder again!
[18:40] <jollyjester> what is everyone doing?
[18:40] <SlidingHorn> jollyjester: do you have an Ubuntu support question?  Normal chat is in #ubuntu-offtopic :)
[18:40] <senaps> SlidingHorn, okay, i have everything in another partition, so i just do a fresh install using 18.04.
[18:40] <senaps> thanks all....
[18:40] <SlidingHorn> senaps: good luck
[18:52] <senaps> https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/PfmngjjyyW/ this error is the reason i deleted the /usr/bin/dpkg now im getting it again. trying to upgrade or install apps throws the same error. i have mysql disabled by default, but this same error is thrown if i enable mysql (sudo systemctl start mysql)
[18:54] <compdoc> senaps, after running sudo systemctl start mysql, whats the status?
[18:55] <senaps> compdoc,  it's a green running status https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/mjrmjYZY3r/
[18:56] <compdoc> senaps, type: sudo updatedb
[18:56] <compdoc> then type: locate mysqld.sock
[18:57] <preview> hallo, could anyone help me with this error? I cant update apt as it says " Couldn't create temporary file /tmp/apt.conf.yMo12h for passing config to apt-key" on most repositories, appears to be a gpg issue?
[18:57] <preview> my tmp folder is symlinked to another drive, but I've tried with a faolder in root and it still happens
[18:58] <senaps> compdoc, nothing come's back. there is no mysqld.sock or mysql.sock
[18:58] <renn0xtk9> spikebike Do you think it comes from there ?
[18:59] <tomreyn> preview: what's the output of: ls -ld /tmp /tmp/
[18:59] <senaps> compdoc, but i can login to the database and use it  normally
[18:59] <senaps> locally, not over the network i haven't checked actually)

[19:01] <compdoc> it cant find mysqld.sock. different configs can place it in different locations. it might not even exist. start with the errors you see, is what I suggest

[19:03] <preview> no
[19:03] <preview> uh still like a gig free
[19:04] <john1990> SlidingHorn: I'm back. Thought it worked, but for some reason, even though the find part is working fine, tar seems to be ignoring the find output.
[19:04] <john1990> SlidingHorn: tried tar cfv archive.tar /Movies/ --exclude-from <(find . -size -100M +1c -o -type d)
[19:05] <preview> tomreyn:  but as I said,even if the directory is on the root drive it stilll fails.

[19:05] <john1990> nada
[19:06] <tomreyn> preview: then remove the symlink and do: sudo mount -t tmpfs tmpfs /tmp
[19:06] <preview> tomreyn, that worked!
[19:07] <tomreyn> preview: this is a ramdrive now, as it is normally.
[19:07] <preview> what do I add to fstab to get that loaded at  boot?

[19:08] <preview> *laughs* I'm using debian

[19:10] <nescius> hello! nvidia issues support groups are which way? :) proprietary drivers 390 and 396 are freezing few seconds after reboot, this did not happen on 17.04, but is the case for both freshly installed 17.10 and 18.04
[19:11] <nescius> eh, i ment to say it freezes few seconds after user session starts, gdm stays solid.. most of the time
[19:13] <kus> oh btw, anyone tried the new live patching thing on ubuntu bionic beaver?
[19:13] <oerheks> nescius, is that all? after login my system screen freeses too, until the bar appears, and network is ready
[19:13] <nescius> yes, dont know whether it helps or not, I am in a rebooting cycle due to my nvidia issues
[19:14] <oerheks> but this is only 5-6 sec
[19:14] <oerheks> any other lag?
[19:14] <nescius> oerheks: it freezes by shutting down screen, turning the fans on full throtle and generally doesnt respond to anything lesser than reset button
[19:14] <senaps> compdoc, i have found the sock file in `/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock` but locate can't find it.
[19:15] <compdoc> oh, its set not to scane that section then
[19:15] <compdoc> scan
[19:15] <john1990> ls
[19:15] <compdoc> so is that the right place?
[19:16] <senaps> i checked with folks in #mysql and they said it's normal location.
[19:16] <ioria> nescius, how do you know nvidia-driver is the culprit ? does not happen with nouveau ?
[19:16] <senaps> why should mysql be any releavent to ubuntu update?
[19:17] <compdoc> time to look thru logs, I guess. maybe its expecting to find a service or something that isnt installed.
[19:17] <compdoc> oy maybe a permissions problem
[19:17] <nescius> ioria: because nouveau is banned
[19:17] <compdoc> ownership
[19:18] <ioria> nescius, by who ? :)
[19:18] <nescius> ioria: by nvidia package in modprobe
[19:19] <ioria> nescius, ok, you're experiencing a freeze , right ? why do you think is nvidia related ?  (i could be btw)
[19:20] <compdoc> senaps, it seems to want to update it. but something is broken. maybe you could backup the database, and uninstall mysql
[19:23] <nescius> ioria: i think i remember it being stable but slow when with the nouveau, I am mostly using the older system now.. if you have any suggestions on what to check, i am bit out of ideas myself
[19:24] <senaps> compdoc, throws the same error :|
[19:24] <ioria> nescius, let's start again ;  why do you think your issue is nvidia related ?
[19:29] <nikolam> Good news!, Seems like 'thing' with inability to do 'zpool export' is now fixed in 18.04 LTS. OR at least after update to LTS and ZFS modules install, it now works.
[19:29] <morphyeys> hello guys! what is the easiest way to create a bootble usb flash drive with windows iso?
[19:30] <nikolam> morphyeys, you want to boot Ubuntu or Windows from the USB?
[19:30] <morphyeys> Windows
[19:30] <blackflow> nikolam: what thing with inability to zpool export?
[19:32] <nikolam> morphyeys, coz MS Windows suppport is on ##windows channel (And As I know you need official MS Tool on Windows itself to make it). I do it with 'dd' comand form the image previously made with that official MS tool.
[19:32] <ioria> nikolam, and dd it's not working ?
[19:33] <nikolam> ioria, dd is working but if I made and image out of previously created USB stick.
[19:34] <ioria> nikolam, you dd the win iso ....
[19:35] <nikolam> ioria, I am not sure that would work (at least not the official way to do it) and it's the question for ##windows channel, anyways.
[19:35] <oerheks> nikolam, not with dd, use WOEusb https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2017/06/create-bootable-windows-10-usb-ubuntu
[19:35] <ioria> nikolam, iirc, i did a month ago...
[19:36] <morphyeys> question to the windows channel "how to create bootable usb stick under linux ubuntu" ?
[19:36] <augustiner> Hi ubuntu nice evening
[19:36] <nikolam> morphyeys, yes :) hah
[19:37] <morphyeys> but 1st of april is out of date already
[19:37] <morphyeys> ?
[19:37] <morphyeys> are you serious?
[19:38] <nikolam> morphyeys, don't get your ubuntu-related question right. I said I used dd on already created image , and officially you need to use MS tool for that. And WoeUSB can be used or even dd .iso directly, but clearly the question os for ##windows.
[19:39] <warhero> Is there a shortcut, or a way to add icon, to show desktop in the newest Ubuntu 18.04?
[19:40] <warhero> Actually never mind. Writing this question, I've realised I can just switch to an empty workspace. But still, is there?
[19:41] <ioria> warhero, you mean show icons on desktop with 18.04 gnome-shell ?  if so,  you need gnome-tweak-tool -> Desktop
[19:42] <cmm11> think they mean a way to quickly minimise the windows and show just the desktop
[19:42] <ioria> ah
[19:43] <warhero> Yes, that is exactly what I mean. Previous Unity Ubuntus had this option.
[19:43] <ioria> it was ctrl+super+d
[19:44] <Chuxclub> Hello guys! I've recently updated to Ubuntu 18.04LTS and I seem to have lost the Thunderbird indicator in the top bar of my desktop. How can I retrieve it? Is it possible to retrieve it? Thanks very much for your help :) !
[19:45] <warhero> ioria: that's it. Thanks.
[19:45] <kab0m> Does anyone know: if  try to open a irc:// link from firefox ony ma Kubuntu, i can not select Pidgin as programm to open it with? why?
[19:45] <warhero> That hit the spot.
[19:45] <ioria> warhero, ok
[19:51] <Chuxclub> Nobody?
[19:54] <deepfreez> Hello, I created in the past a software in Visual Studio Community build for windows, but now I use Ubuntu as OS... how I open the software in ubuntu? I want to do some changes and create again the .exe ?

[19:55] <deepfreez> thanks
[19:57] <oerheks> there is a #visualstudio channel hee on #freenode though
[19:59] <deepfreez> thanks
[19:59] <deepfreez> nice
[20:09] <Chuxclub> I'm sorry if I disturb you but I'd just like to make sure... Can anyone read my message? Again, thanks a lot for your answer :)
[20:11] <brainwash> Chuxclub: at least I can read that one
[20:13] <Chuxclub> Thank you brainwash :) !

[20:27] <Randolf> Is there a Ubuntu 18.04 LTS Desktop for 32-bit systems?  Thanks.  https://www.ubuntu.com/download/alternative-downloads
[20:27] <Randolf> I only saw 64-bit in this list.
[20:29] <kasa_> Hi there
[20:36] <Rave1> Randolf, ubuntu has dropped 32 bit
[20:36] <slyrus> argh... can't disable nouveau. any tips?
[20:38] <TheEagerPadawan> still running in the same problem that i had earlier
[20:38] <TheEagerPadawan> all due to an update *FML*
[20:39] <tgm4883> TheEagerPadawan: what issue is that?
[20:39] <Hilikus> i'm on 18.04 and my sound works fine after a shutdown. if i boot into ubuntu, sounds works, if i reboot into ubuntu it still works. if i boot into windows 10 and then shut down and boot into ubuntu it works, but if i boot into windows 10 and the reboot into ubuntu sound doesn't work. Only a shutdown fixes it, reboots don't. i alreayd disabled fast boot in windows and killed/cleaned pulse audio. any other suggestions?
[20:40] <Rave1> Randolf,   but ubuntu mate  xbuntu  are still available in 32 bit
[20:41] <tgm4883> Randolf: I bet you'd be able to use the minimal ISO to install a 32-bit ubuntu 18.04 desktop
[20:41] <john1990> I am trying to mv/tar/cpio/rsync/cp all the none movie files (and there are trailers, named *-trailer.*) almost all of which are smaller than the movies themselves. Its a fairly deep dir structure and I need to preserve it. I am trying tar but for some reason it seems to be bypassing the "find input" so I am at a loss. suggestions?
[20:41] <tgm4883> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[20:43] <tgm4883> john1990: you should be able to use --exclude to exclude the files
[20:46] <john1990> tgm4883: I've tried that actually, not working... which I hope means I am doing it wrong
[20:46] <john1990> tgm4883: I've tried tar cfv kodi-metadata-files.tar /home/jon/Videos/Movies/ --exclude-from <(find . -size -100M +1c -o -type d)
[20:46] <john1990> and it seems like tar is ignoring finds input
[20:46] <miguel2013> I have a madwifi driver 1.4.9 I think thatI want to install on xubuntu 16.04 but is not letting me. it can't find the kernel or kernel path is wrong. I specified the path as /usr/src/linux4.13-39something which is correct but it still can't find.
[20:47] <john1990> I tried with -T and the output of find (which I looked at and it listed all the files i needed) and tar seemed to ignore that too?!
[20:47] <miguel2013> I need to try this older driver thinking it will let me use my nic correctly ath5k doesn't work. the driver on ubuntu10.04 is better but stil disconects me constantrly
[20:50] <miguel2013> I tried installing madwifi on the ubuntu 10.04 it went farther lol
[20:50] <miguel2013> but it ended up giving me an error I tried sudo make on it too
[20:51] <Randolf> Rave1:  Oh, okay.  Thanks.
[20:53] <sasho199> Hi everyone, does anyone know how to solve nvidia issues on ubuntu. I seems to be having some trouble with it
[20:56] <slyrus> sasho199: don't know that I can solve them for you, but I'm having major problems too :(
[20:57] <sasho199> slyrus, with nvidia drivers/hardware?
[20:57] <slyrus> yes
[20:58] <matyd> i have ubuntu 18.04, laptop is an Inspiron 15-3567, my batter has been discharging faster than normal it seems. I unplugged from 100% charged less than 2 minutes ago and I'm already down to 97%. I've installed powertop and 'toggled' everythning from bad to good and still no luck
[20:58] <matyd> what else can i do to return my charge to how it was prior?
[21:01] <sasho199> slyrus, my issue is that after installing a nvidia driver, i get a blank screen with a flashing underscore only
[21:01] <slyrus> what version of the OS, driver, card, etc...?
[21:02] <outoftime> Why `gparted` says /dev/sdb1 have 83 GB unused and `df -h /` says only 73 GB available?
[21:03] <brainwash> matyd: lower display brightness
[21:03] <altar> VBVB
[21:04] <oerheks> !nomodeset | sasho199
[21:04] <altar> hi
[21:04] <matyd> brainwash: it's only halfway up at the moment
[21:04] <sasho199> slyrus, ubuntu 18.04, driver is 390, card - geforce gtx 950m
[21:04] <outoftime> matyd: I suppose 18.04 not released yet. You can speek to development team, there are channel on Freenode, just do not remember name
[21:04] <oerheks> read a lot about failing 390/396
[21:04] <altar> test
[21:04] <slyrus> sasho199: do you get to the login screen or does it crash before that?
[21:04] <altar> yes
[21:05] <matyd> outoftime i've got 18.04 LTS
[21:05] <slyrus> sasho199: my bug is here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1768906
[21:05] <netochka> Ubuntu 18.04 i'm getting long errors when rolls down like flood when i'm going to shutdown, saying something like nouveau sched error 20. or this: info: rcu sched detected stalls on cpus/tasks .
[21:05] <outoftime> matyd: just didn't saw update message on 16.04, that is why I'm considering 18.04 unstable.
[21:06] <sasho199> oerheks, ubottu, skyrus: I used nomodeset while installing, then installed the driver and tried to restart
[21:06] <netochka> That rolls down*
[21:06] <slyrus> sasho199: it would be great if you could figure out if your bug is the same as mine and if so contribute your experience -- and if not, start a new one.
[21:06] <matyd> outoftime: gotcha, it's the official release so I thought it was stable.. I guess i could be wrong
[21:06] <tgm4883> outoftime: 18.04 is released as is the update.
[21:07] <sasho199> slyrus: to be honest I have no experience with linux so I don't really know
[21:07] <slyrus> check /var/log/syslog and see if you're seeing similar error messages to the ones in that bug
[21:08] <Peyam> everytime I put my computer to Sleep and then wake it up it goes to boot menu
[21:08] <outoftime> tgm4883: nice to hear that, any way, I will not hurry up.
[21:08] <matyd> My laptop batter was 100% less than 10 minutes ago and I'm down to 92%, there's got to be something going on I just don't know how to diagnose it I guess
[21:09] <sasho199> oerheks, ubottu: I just tried adding nomodeset to the grub parameters and nothing changed
[21:10] <brainwash> matyd: we don't see what your powertop is showing
[21:11] <netochka> Ubuntu 18.04 i'm getting long errors that roll down like flood when i'm going to shutdown, saying something like nouveau sched error 20. or this: info: rcu sched detected stalls on cpus/tasks .
[21:13] <outoftime> Is it safe to create another partition in the end of the existed partition via gparted (by resizing existed one and creating additional) ?
[21:14] <matyd> brainwash: i can generate an html report of powertop, let me figure out where to load it too...
[21:14] <MonkeyDust> outoftime  make sure you backup first, before you start changing partitions
[21:15] <slyrus> yay! switching to lightdm fixes my nvidia problem.
[21:15] <outoftime> MonkeyDust: have no ability to do that
[21:15] <brainwash> matyd: maybe "sudo powertop --dump" will do
[21:15] <brainwash> matyd: the output should be pastebin-able
[21:15] <Chatterly> Hello, I am in lubuntu and when I try to save these unicode characters into a file, it says "Can't convert codeset to 'ANSI_X3.4-1968" I am very much a newb and can't find a similar error online. Sorry if it is a bad time to ask might ask again later, just spent so much time typing that and have ltd idea of how to rectify / where&what the deficiency is
[21:16] <matyd> ok
[21:16] <outoftime> MonkeyDust: any chance I can "move" existed files closer to the beginning?
[21:17] <MonkeyDust> outoftime  i'm not sure what you mean by that
[21:17] <matyd> brainwash: --dump is an unrecognized option, looking through --help there is no dump option
[21:18] <outoftime> Chatterly: what changes? It seams like your destination file encoding is not Unicode
[21:18] <Chatterly> changes?
[21:18] <Chatterly> But I see what you are implying in  your sentence.
[21:19] <brainwash> matyd: ah right. that's for powertop version 1.x
[21:19] <matyd> brainwash: i created a .csv which I am copying and will paste, should achieve the same results i believe
[21:20] <outoftime> Chatterly: you can try modify encoding settings of your existed editor or use another one.
[21:20] <Chatterly> Thank you I think I have solved the issue by using a better text editor
[21:21] <matyd> brainwash: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/Gn3ZS69347/
[21:21] <outoftime> Chatterly: not Ubuntu's problem, some software configuration issue.
[21:22] <Chatterly> Sorted now.
[21:23] <brainwash> matyd: close google chrome
[21:23] <brainwash> matyd: :>
[21:23] <BlueProtoman> I'm trying to remove a directory, but it's telling me that it's not empty even though it should be.  `ls the_relevant_directory` returns an "Input/output error".  The distro is Ubuntu 17.10, the file system is NTFS via ntfs-3g, and the file system is not otherwise behaving weirdly.  Any thoughts?
[21:23] <outoftime> MonkeyDust: I'm talking about defragmentation in order to be sure that no file stays on the end of the partition
[21:23] <brainwash> matyd: gnome-shell may be not that battery friendly also
[21:24] <brainwash> matyd: what was your previous OS setup?
[21:24] <vavkamil> hello
[21:25] <matyd> brainwash: I had 16.04 with unity. I will note that I installed gnome to get used to it prior to upgrading and began noticing less battery life
[21:25] <sasho199> can anyone tell me how I can turn off my computer/reboot from the terminal, i am in recovery mode if that somehow changes things
[21:26] <outoftime> BlueProtoman: may be problem with filesystem
[21:26] <BlueProtoman> outoftime: The file system has *not* been mounted read-only behind my back.  I can modify files on it just fine.
[21:27] <outoftime> sasho199: sudo reboot?
[21:27] <matyd> brainwash: google chrome is a hog then? I've always used chrome, I'm guess firefox is a better choice?
[21:27] <BlueProtoman> matyd: A few months ago, Firefox came out with a new version that's much faster and uses less RAM.  It took me ten minutes to decide to switch.
[21:28] <sasho199> outoftime: does not work
[21:28] <vavkamil> so ubuntu 18.04 is using new php (7.2) but old phpmyadmin (4.6), which causes some problems. Can I report is as a bug somewhere?
[21:28] <outoftime> sasho199: output? one more `sudo shutdown -h 0`
[21:28] <vlt> Hello. What package do I find lv2rack in?
[21:28] <matyd> BlueProtoman: then I'll start making the switch from chrome to firefox :P
[21:28] <BobbiDigital> Firefox is god now. Chrome was good then...chrome is good now, firefox was good then. rinse repeat
[21:29] <vavkamil> vlt, swh-lv2?
[21:29]  * vlt checks
[21:30] <BlueProtoman> BobbiDigital: They're both good, but Firefox got better really quick.
[21:30] <BobbiDigital> so did Chrome when it switched to its blink engine
[21:30] <brainwash> matyd: I would just close it, and see if that makes a big difference
[21:30] <outoftime> BlueProtoman: Firefox still slower then Chrome, so...
[21:30] <BlueProtoman> BobbiDigital: I'm sure it did.  I'm not doubting that.
[21:30] <BobbiDigital> End of the day we win. But marignally
[21:30] <pholwol> hi
[21:31] <outoftime> BlueProtoman: ask your question again once in a while
[21:31] <BobbiDigital> marginally*
[21:31] <pholwol> after i dualbooted ubuntu with kali ubuntu boots really slow
[21:31] <pholwol> does anyone know how to fix it?
[21:31] <vlt> vavkamil: Nope. The are only /usr/lib/**.so file, no /usr/bin/lv2rack in this package.
[21:31] <brainwash> matyd: any modern web browser is usually cpu and ram heavy, especially if in constant use
[21:32] <BobbiDigital> brainwash, indeed
[21:32] <sasho199> outoftime: i tried sudo shutdown -h now but did not work
[21:32] <apsknight> I installed Jupyter with anaconda, when I am running 'jupyter notebook' it is running fine but on running 'sudo jupyter notebook' it is giving error, sudo: jupyter: command not found.
[21:32] <apsknight> How to fix this ?
[21:32] <vlt> What standalone program can I use to host LV2 plugins?
[21:32] <sasho199> outoftime: I force turned off anyways
[21:33] <apsknight> BobbiDigital: brainwash: vlt: sasho199: Can you please help me?
[21:34] <Guest42436> can some one help me with a printer query please
[21:35] <BobbiDigital> apsknight, whats up

[21:35] <BobbiDigital> lol
[21:35] <apsknight> BobbiDigital: I installed Jupyter with anaconda, when I am running 'jupyter notebook' it is running fine but on running 'sudo jupyter notebook' it is giving error, sudo: jupyter: command not found.

[21:37] <BobbiDigital> apsknight, is it in your path variable?
[21:38] <BobbiDigital> sudo env | grep ^PATH
[21:38] <sasho199> outoftime: I already used my power button to force shut down
[21:38] <vlt> apsknight: Sure I can help. Just never run sudo jupyter.
[21:38] <sasho199> Can someone help with installation issue on laptop with nvidia graphics card. Ubuntu 18.04, laptop - asus x550vx
[21:38] <vlt> apsknight: Ever.
[21:39] <apsknight> vlt: I have to install a jupyter extenson, so I need to run jupyer nbextension install and that requires sudo.
[21:41] <vlt> apsknight: What about soing it the proper way and use a virtualenv?
[21:42] <vlt> *doing
[21:42] <john1990> well, for anyone that cares... rsync with the --max-size option then && tarring up the resulting tree got the job done, not particularly elegant but hey
[21:44] <oblea> Hi! I've problem with hash sum on xenial
[21:44] <outoftime> Is it safe to resize EXT4 partition or at the end there could be files?
[21:46] <Guest27068> Hi guys. Just installed ubuntu 18.04 and find that image scan for linux is not identifying my epson printer anymore. It worked fine on earlier versions of ubuntu. Did a bit of googling but no much help. Can  some one guide me in the right directions. thanks
[21:47] <outoftime> apsknight: add link to executable directory where any user can access to, but in you case just do not use sudo or install for root
[21:50] <outoftime> apsknight: also check `#anaconda` channel
[21:50] <apsknight> Okay, Thanks
[21:50] <Randolf> I have an older laptop with a 32-bit Intel Pentium M CPU in it that, according to Ubuntu Desktop 16.04.4's installer, does not support PAE.  Which version of Ubuntu Desktop can I run on this machine?  Thanks.
[21:51] <outoftime> apsknight: somebody gave good note about virtualenv, as I see it, you can reuse it for every user by adding them to groop with permission to access that virtualenv
[21:54] <outoftime> RangerBob: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PAE
[21:54] <RangerBob> ?
[21:54] <Randolf> RangerBob:  That was probably meant for me.  :)
[21:54] <Randolf> Thanks outoftime.
[21:55] <RangerBob> heh ok
[21:55] <Randolf> Nice to meet you, by the way.  :D
[21:58] <theorem> it seems that my soundcard has suddenly stopped outputting sound -- I switched audio to a bluetooth device, and since then have not been able to get the wired speakers to play anything
[21:58] <theorem> it's like the audio sink is gone
[21:58] <sasho199> Does anyone know  how to fix a blank screen after nvidia driver install?
[21:58] <theorem> any clues where to start ?
[22:00] <Randolf> outoftime:  The instructions indicate two dashes, but in Ubuntu Desktop 16.04.4 there are actually three.  It seems to be working so far.  Thanks!

[22:01] <kostkon> theorem, you could try refreshing your pulse config by deleting your ~/.config/pulse folder and then logging out, if you haven't done that already
[22:02] <theorem> kostkon: thanks, will try
[22:03] <outoftime> Randolf: I'm newbie just like you. Don't ask me any deaper questions. (got to go)
[22:11] <vlt> How can I find out what happened to a package not available in the latest Ubuntu realease anymore? ("zynjacku" in my case)

[22:20] <MonkeyDust> vlt  looks like your question is answered

[22:21] <sqaresandcubes> anyone know how I snap 4 window sections in 18.04?
[22:22] <sqaresandcubes> like bottom left, top right, etc
[22:22] <sqaresandcubes> I tried using the unity config tool but it doesnt push the settings even after a reboot
[22:22] <sqaresandcubes> weird because it applied all the other settings I made with the tool
[22:23] <kostkon> sqaresandcubes, 18.04 comes with gnome shell not unity
[22:24] <sqaresandcubes> ok, do you know of a tool for gnome that I can enable this feature?
[22:25] <kostkon> sqaresandcubes, no idea
[22:25] <theorem> weird
[22:25] <theorem> things just started to work ..
[22:28] <Jaker> Hi. Budgie 18.04 - I cannot get brightness applet to work. Installer says it is installed but I cannot see it in tray.
[22:31] <kostkon> Jaker, is it a panel or a tray applet. if it's a panel one then you probably need to add it yourself to the panel or something
[22:32] <k0nichiwa> anyone know how to setup .htaccess and .htpsswd for phpmyadmin ?
[22:32] <k0nichiwa> phpmyadmin in /usr/share
[22:32] <k0nichiwa> ive tried putting them in /usr/share, and i tried in /usr/share/phpmyadmin, no effect
[22:32] <k0nichiwa> i found an example for .htaccess and i used the htpsswd command line to create the.htpsswd file
[22:33] <matjam> k0nichiwa: its a question of what http server you're using, nginx or apache.
[22:33] <Jaker> kostkon, it says applet under applet install function but it dont appear
[22:33] <Jaker> thx tho
[22:33] <Jaker> i can use MPV player brightness for now i guess
[22:34] <kostkon> Jaker, try right clicking on your panel, see if it has an option to add panels to it
[22:34] <kostkon> applets*
[22:34] <Jaker> kostkon, tried. it dont
[22:34] <Jaker> i have workaround for now
[22:34] <Jaker> now on to other crap..like video tearing lol
[22:37] <Peyam> what is a good WYGISWYG? for linux?
[22:37] <kostkon> Peyam, wygiswyg editor for what
[22:37] <Peyam> website
[22:37] <Peyam> html
[22:38] <BUSY> hello!  i just tried to do-release-upgrade -d from 16.04 to 18.04 and my boot hangs before i reach the login screen and i can't seem to enter a virtual terminal. any ideas?
[22:42] <SlidingHorn> Peyam: I suggested a bunch the other day
[22:42] <SlidingHorn> (read: Anything that's available)
[22:42] <Peyam> SlidingHorn, they weren't so good. Bluegriffon was but somehow it didn't do the job
[22:43] <SlidingHorn> Peyam: Well the ones I offered were all that a google search and a search of the repos found...
[22:44] <SlidingHorn> Peyam: also, what do you mean by "weren't so good" and "didn't do the job"?
[22:44] <Peyam> SlidingHorn, I want to make a website like the old dreamweaver. just dragging stuff and make a alzy website
[22:46] <kostkon> Peyam, what about google web designer? have you tried it
[22:47] <SlidingHorn> Peyam: your options are essentially - BlueGriffon, Amaya, KompoZer or Google Web Designer (all of which were suggested to you last time)
[22:47] <Peyam> kostkon, I did. but it felt more for making banners not a website
[22:48] <Peyam> SlidingHorn, Kompozer sounds like lot of KDE dependencies
[22:48]  * SlidingHorn shrugs
[22:48] <Peyam> "KompoZer is a GTK application, it has nothing to do with KDE — though it can be installed on KDE, too. Komodo and the Kernel aren’t KDE applications either. ;-)"
[22:48] <Peyam> okey then I install this
[22:49] <Peyam> just the K scared me too much to read those lines
[22:49] <SlidingHorn> (was literally the first thing I suggested last time)
[22:50] <Peyam> SlidingHorn, thanks. but it hasnt been update for last 7 years. is it a bad thing for my porpuse+
[22:50] <kostkon> !info kompozer
[22:50] <SlidingHorn> Peyam: WYSIWYG editors for HTML aren't really a thing that's common anymore
[22:51] <Peyam> SlidingHorn, how do people make UI these days?
[22:51] <SlidingHorn> Peyam: by hand, usually
[22:52] <Peyam> I tried and failed
[22:52] <sasho199> Does anyone know if its normal to have only 800x600 res available from the nouveau driver in 18.04
[22:52] <wirehunter> Peyam, Using css things like bootstrap
[22:53] <SlidingHorn> !resolution | sasho199 This should get you started :)
[22:53] <Peyam> wirehunter, I want to see what I m making instead of refreshing the webpage
[22:53] <BUSY> it looks like i need to purge some nvidia drivers, but i can't find a way to get into a CLI. any ideas?
[22:53] <wirehunter> Peyam, There probably is a preview thing for your editor.
[22:54] <SlidingHorn> BUSY: Ctrl+Alt+F(1-6) doesn't work?
[22:54] <lolz> does ubuntu 18.04 comes with Firefox?
[22:54] <SlidingHorn> lolz: yes
[22:54] <wirehunter> Peyam, But that isn't really a thing to discuss at #ubuntu
[22:55] <BUSY> SlidingHorn, i'm having trouble booting and i don't think i'm far enough to allow for those terminals. also tried to ssh in
[22:55] <lolz> SlidingHorn: thank you. i forgot if i had installed it myself
[22:55] <Peyam> what is honestly?
[22:55] <SlidingHorn> Peyam: support issues with ubuntu itself
[22:55] <sasho199> ubottu: It told me command not found
[22:56] <SlidingHorn> software recommendations aren't really the thing here
[22:56] <lolz> will we ever see a Windows (TM) 2GB installation like ubuntu in the future?
[22:56] <kostkon> lolz, what do you mean exactly
[22:56] <ahtd> Hi, I've edited my fstab and now it wont get past the login screen. Can someone help me with this? I'm trying to add a swap and home partition to a already installed Ubuntu
[22:56] <sasho199> SlidingHorn: What does that mean, Im not familiar with the signs you are using
[22:56] <SlidingHorn> sasho199: check the link ubottu gave you - and the ?dm  part is meant to be replaced with your display manager
[22:57] <lolz> kostkon: i mean, Windows TM asks me for 8GB disk space to do just an update, like Creators
[22:58] <lolz> not bashing on Windows, i think it has improved a lot
[22:58] <ahtd> I'm on recovery mode right now. If I restore the fstab to the backup I've made, it will login
[22:58] <RadicalEntity> ahtd, can you post the output of your fstab here: https://pastebin.com/
[22:58] <kostkon> lolz, they may decide to offer a cut down version some day. but windows is ot in here anyway
[22:58] <RadicalEntity> ahtd, also paste the output of the command lsblk -f
[22:59] <lolz> kostkon: where do you talk offtopic, besides the offtopic channel?
[22:59] <sasho199> SlidingHorn: How can I find out what I should write there?
[22:59] <kostkon> lolz, not sure, but you can ask alis
[22:59] <kostkon> !alis
[22:59] <lolz> kostkon: ty
[23:00] <wirehunter> lolz, On my Lumia 640 running windows insider preview, I didn't have enough space to perform an upgrade, yet I deleted everything on it. (8gb total storage)
[23:01] <lolz> wirehunter: i have a 32gb fresh from store and i had to delete stuff to get 8GB free to proceed to update
[23:01] <SlidingHorn> sasho199: restarting your display manager isn't going to help you until you make changes - you need to visit the link that ubottu gave you
[23:01] <lolz> wirehunter: *32GB notebook
[23:02] <sasho199> SlidingHorn: I am in it. I cant understand what I should look for
[23:03] <lolz> wirehunter: windows phone sounds like hell, no offense
[23:03] <sasho199> SlidingHorn: I am still trying to understand if I can run ubuntu only using that driver, cause the nvidia once are cuasing my computer to break
[23:04] <SlidingHorn> sasho199: you should be fine using the noveau driver - Your question was about having a low resolution.  I gave you a link to fix that.
[23:10] <sasho199> SlidingHorn: Thank you for your responce! But now when I enter xrandr I get only 800x600 possible
[23:11] <ilovepixelart_> hello folks!
[23:11] <SlidingHorn> sasho199: please read the whole page
[23:12] <SSMAdmin> I have a OpenVPN server which I used while on Ubuntu 16.04.  After upgrading to 18.04, the 18.04 will no longer import my *.ovpn configuration file in Network settings - VPN
[23:13] <ahtd> RadicalEntity: https://pastebin.com/bZd3wJ0A
[23:14] <john1990> has anyone tried "dupeguru" on 18? I know its dev has stopped but it was working on 16 so I am hoping for 18?
[23:14] <ahtd> RadicalEntity: I put both outputs on the same file. The fstab.bug does not work
[23:14] <john1990> hoping but haven't gotten it to work yet
[23:15] <sasho199> SlidingHorn: So I have to add a resolution that is not detected?
[23:17] <sasho199> SlidingHorn: Thank you for your help, but this is too much for now, I will try it tomorrow!
[23:17] <SlidingHorn> john1990: dupeguru isn't supported here
[23:18] <john1990> SlidingHorn: doh, any thoughts on where I might get some answers?
[23:18] <SlidingHorn> john1990: no idea - it's not even supported by the developer, so I doubt other places will
[23:19] <oerheks> !info fslint
[23:19] <SlidingHorn> john1990: it's a long shot but you can *try* ##linux
[23:20] <john1990> SlidingHorn: alright will try there. Any suggestions on other dup apps? I've tried fslint but it does not have the opt i need
[23:20] <oerheks> tons of other tools that are maintained, john1990 > https://askubuntu.com/a/118389
[23:21] <john1990> oerheks: thx will try that first then perhaps head over to #linux and beg a bit
[23:22] <john1990> cheers
[23:24] <ahtd> RadicalEntity: nevermind, I will install from scratch. These things never work for me
[23:28] <RadicalEntity> ahtd, what drive are you trying to mount?
[23:29] <outoftime> I have my Ubuntu 16.04 on sda1, I have started Windows install on sda2. How to boot sda2 (windows not installed already, need reboot to continue)
[23:31] <tomreyn> outoftime: you'll need to recover ubuntu, re-install grub to (supposedly) /dev/sda, then both should be bootable.
[23:31] <tomreyn> that's because windows doesn't accept other queens beside her,
[23:32] <outoftime> tomreyn: Windows install not completed, boot-repair utility not working
[23:32] <tomreyn> outoftime: well, how do you plan to boot a non-finished installation?
[23:32] <outoftime> tomreyn: `boot-repair` cant find windows, need to boot sda2 to finish install
[23:33] <outoftime> tomreyn: somehow via grub
[23:33] <outoftime> tomreyn: it has console
[23:33] <outoftime> tomreyn: did it for linux in near part, but forgot how to do it
[23:34] <outoftime> tomreyn: there was 3 commands
[23:34] <oerheks> is this windows in UEFI mode, and Ubuntu in legacy ?
[23:34] <tomreyn> so i assume you are hoping to get around having to recvover ubuntu and re-install grub, by not finishing the last stage of the windows installation?
[23:34] <tomreyn> i don't know whether or not this will work, ask someone who is into windows
[23:34] <outoftime> tomreyn: I have my Ubuntu working well, I'm on it right now
[23:35] <oerheks> i think you should finish windows properly, then install ubuntu
[23:35] <outoftime> oerheks: yes, but how?
[23:35] <outoftime> orgasmix: Windows on sda2 it is second partition
[23:35] <outoftime> oerheks: message above
[23:36] <tomreyn> complete windows installation,then do as i said
 outoftime: you'll need to recover ubuntu, re-install grub to (supposedly) /dev/sda, then both should be bootable.
[23:36] <outoftime> tomreyn: I can not boot from sda2
[23:37] <outoftime> tomreyn: I have my grub on sda1
[23:37] <tomreyn> install grub to /dev/sda instead. not to the partition.
[23:39] <outoftime> oerheks: I'm newbie with "rummors" knowladge, I do not know how to finish windows install because grubs loads first
[23:41] <oerheks> so you never hold shift @ boot to get into grub menu?
[23:41] <outoftime> oerheks: no, it is just apears as usuall
[23:41] <oerheks> if grub is installed correctly, there would be a windows instance
[23:42] <outoftime> oerheks: windows not finished install on sda2
[23:42] <guest-xeutqd> hello
[23:42] <outoftime> oerheks: it have been rebooted and have to be booted again to finish
[23:43] <oerheks> so, if you cannot get into windows, it is not an ubuntu issue, finish your windows by booting with windows dvd
[23:43] <ahtd> RadicalEntity: I was trying to mount /dev/sdb1 and /dev/sdb2
[23:43] <oerheks> but if you never been into grub menu, you might want to take a look there first
[23:45] <outoftime> oerheks: I understand that it is not ubuntu issue at all, I'm installing Windows on second partition and Windows require installation on the first partition because of the MBR.
[23:45] <outoftime> oerheks: just need help and have no idea where to ask..
[23:46] <outoftime> oerheks: I'll try to boot from Windows bootable usb and select recover, maybe it will finish installation
[23:48] <zanakyn> hey guys. so the other day i came around here asking why firefox is complaining about pulseaudio needing to be installed for audio to work, while i have pulseaudio installed. during diagnosing the issue, audio started working somehow so I called it at that.
[23:49] <zanakyn> turns out audio in firefox won't work if i start firefox from i3-launcher or whatever it's called, but it will work if i just run "firefox" in the terminal directly
[23:49] <zanakyn> anyone had an issue like this? i assume the behavior would be the same if i was using unity and starting firefox with the launcher icon. not sure though. this is ubuntu 16.04
[23:50] <zanakyn> sorry, dmenu is the name of the app launcher bundled with i3-wm
[23:51] <RadicalEntity> ahtd, you might want to do a fsck on sdb2
[23:51] <RadicalEntity> ahtd, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilesystemTroubleshooting
