| Blood_n_Binary | you can do sudo autoremove I believe to get rid of the backports | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| skatetensor | if that doesn't work change the permissions with chmod | 00:00 |
| Blood_n_Binary | someone check me on that... | 00:00 |
| Blood_n_Binary | lol | 00:00 |
| Draegon | When I tried initially, it just made a "xorg.conf.save" file, is there a way to delete/remove that? | 00:00 |
| Blood_n_Binary | you can go through your directory by typing in ls in the terminal | 00:00 |
| FaTaL_G | Blood_n_Binary: Thats just going to remove packages I no longer need..... libqmi-glib1 linux-headers-4.13.0-32 linux-headers-4.13.0-32-generic linux-headers-4.15.0-13 linux-headers-4.15.0-13-generic linux-image-4.13.0-32-generic linux-image-4.15.0-13-generic linux-image-extra-4.13.0-32-generic | 00:00 |
| FaTaL_G | linux-image-extra-4.15.0-13-generic | 00:00 |
| FaTaL_G | sorry... didnt expect spam | 00:01 |
| Blood_n_Binary | so ls if in sudo already | 00:01 |
| skatetensor | Dreageon: rm /etc/X11/xorg/xorg.conf.save/ | 00:01 |
| Blood_n_Binary | and then the original file should be there | 00:01 |
| Blood_n_Binary | you should see it in white | 00:01 |
| Blood_n_Binary | Draegon did you get it? | 00:03 |
| skatetensor | and........he probably deleted his xorg :/ | 00:04 |
| skatetensor | actually did that yesterday :/ | 00:05 |
| FaTaL_G | systemd[1]: isc-dhcp-server.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE | 00:06 |
| FaTaL_G | no idea why | 00:06 |
| Draegon | I tried "sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf.save/" but it says its not a directory | 00:08 |
| FaTaL_G | systemd[1]: ifup@enp0s31f6.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE | 00:08 |
| skatetensor | FaTaL_G: did you also get this msg when you try sudo service isc-dhcp-server start ? | 00:08 |
| FaTaL_G | those are the two things I see that I think are related | 00:09 |
| FaTaL_G | in syslog and worked fine prior to the update/upgrade | 00:09 |
| skatetensor | Draegon: ls so you can list your dir's | 00:09 |
| skatetensor | see the one you want to delete and then do it | 00:10 |
| FaTaL_G | no, it works when I do that | 00:10 |
| FaTaL_G | meaning, the service starts | 00:10 |
| FaTaL_G | and network works, but I have to manually do it | 00:10 |
| skatetensor | so.. make a script and put in the booting process? :p | 00:11 |
| skatetensor | kinda of a crappy solution but hey! | 00:11 |
| FaTaL_G | and the fact that the network card *(second one I posted) is also not coming up, tells me something is happening, like I mentioned above, I wonder if the dhcp server is trying to serve dhcp to the ont | 00:12 |
| Draegon | doing ls just shows my /home directories folders | 00:12 |
| FaTaL_G | which is not good... it shouldnt do that | 00:12 |
| skatetensor | Draegon: ls /etc/X11/xorg/ | 00:13 |
| skatetensor | FaTaL_G: could you try sudo systemctl enable isc-dhcpd-serverand see the result? | 00:14 |
| Draegon | ls: cannot access '/etc/x11/': No such file or directory | 00:14 |
| lapaga | its X11 | 00:15 |
| FaTaL_G | skatetensor: nothing special, it works. But it is already active, it just fails on boot | 00:16 |
| FaTaL_G | if I manually start it, all is well | 00:17 |
| FaTaL_G | like a race condition | 00:17 |
| FaTaL_G | minus the issue with the enp0s31f6 card | 00:17 |
| FaTaL_G | becuase it also fails to ifup on boot | 00:17 |
| skatetensor | hey , might have an idea , is your DHCP server bind to an interface? | 00:19 |
| skatetensor | if i recall in order to start at boot it has to be | 00:19 |
| skatetensor | so check your /etc/init/isc-dhcp-server.conf | 00:19 |
| FaTaL_G | I dont know how to check but I want it bound to br0 only | 00:19 |
| FaTaL_G | ok | 00:19 |
| granttrec1 | is there any apt history roll back like dnf? | 00:21 |
| skatetensor | granttrec1: don't think so,if you want to refer to an older version of your kernel/distro you have to take a snapshot b4 the upgrade | 00:24 |
| FaTaL_G | x /etc/default/isc-dhcp-server | 00:25 |
| FaTaL_G | x /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf | 00:25 |
| granttrec1 | skatetensor: ok thats too bad maybe in the future | 00:26 |
| FaTaL_G | those appear to be the conf, the conf you listed is the actual init script | 00:26 |
| skatetensor | inside the conf is your device linked up? | 00:27 |
| skatetensor | in the line containing IFACE= | 00:27 |
| FaTaL_G | Inside /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf .... it does not appear to be.... I dont even see what to type to make it so | 00:27 |
| skatetensor | if the correct interface listed? | 00:28 |
| FaTaL_G | I'll look | 00:28 |
| skatetensor | yes sorry i wasn't clear before | 00:28 |
| FaTaL_G | wellllllllllllll | 00:29 |
| FaTaL_G | inside /etc/default/isc-dhcp-server it has INTERFACES="br0" | 00:29 |
| FaTaL_G | so I suspect it is right | 00:31 |
| FaTaL_G | remember, I said this has worked fine | 00:31 |
| FaTaL_G | it only borked after sudo apt-get update/upgrade | 00:31 |
| FaTaL_G | :( | 00:31 |
| skatetensor | :/ | 00:32 |
| skatetensor | sorry cannot think of another way | 00:32 |
| skatetensor | just to include start it by placing the script at your init | 00:32 |
| leftyfb | FaTaL_G: Is your main interface br0 and is it starting on boot? | 00:33 |
| FaTaL_G | my br0 is my bridge, of my internal nics | 00:33 |
| FaTaL_G | yes, it is "working because wlan0 is on it, and wifi works on reboot | 00:33 |
| FaTaL_G | bridge-ports wlp2s0 enp7s0 enp4s0f3 enp4s0f2 enp4s0f1 enp4s0f0 | 00:34 |
| leftyfb | wtf | 00:34 |
| leftyfb | why do you have them all attached to the same bridge? | 00:35 |
| FaTaL_G | its a router | 00:35 |
| leftyfb | for how many subnets? | 00:35 |
| FaTaL_G | one | 00:35 |
| FaTaL_G | as far as it knows | 00:35 |
| leftyfb | so why do you have all those interfaces bridged? | 00:36 |
| FaTaL_G | becase it is a router | 00:36 |
| FaTaL_G | 5 wired ports, one wifi port | 00:36 |
| FaTaL_G | all on the same subnet | 00:36 |
| skatetensor | so you use them bridged to get better speed? | 00:37 |
| FaTaL_G | the sixth nic, enp0s31f6, is the fios ont outside facing nic | 00:37 |
| skatetensor | cause of the 802.11ac? | 00:37 |
| leftyfb | A router needs 2 interfaces. 1 for WAN, the other for LAN. An iptables rule can do the routing between them. There's no need for a bridge interface for either of the 2 interfaces. So why do you need 6 interfaces bridged at all? | 00:37 |
| LenPayne | Has anyone else had a rocky upgrade from 17.10 to 18.04? | 00:38 |
| yes_ok | Is anyone aware of a way in Ubuntu 18.04 to switch to a workspace by number? e.g. Ctrl+Alt+4 always switches to workspace #4? | 00:38 |
| leftyfb | LenPayne: We don't take surveys here. If you have a support question, ask it. | 00:38 |
| FaTaL_G | you are correct, a router NEEDS 2... but a router can have many | 00:38 |
| skatetensor | leftyfb: if your device doesn't support gigabit speed it makes sense | 00:39 |
| Two_Dogs | LenPayne: i have seen some here complaining about it, yes | 00:39 |
| FaTaL_G | go buy a nighthawk r9000, it has 4+ | 00:39 |
| LenPayne | Okay. Why did the upgrade remove duplicity? | 00:39 |
| leftyfb | FaTaL_G: So you have yet to explain why you have any interfaces bridged. "it's a router" is an invalid answer. | 00:39 |
| FaTaL_G | why not bridge them? | 00:39 |
| Two_Dogs | FaTaL_G: what is the actual issue you are having? | 00:40 |
| FaTaL_G | they all talk to 192.168.1.1 | 00:40 |
| leftyfb | for what purpose? | 00:40 |
| leftyfb | FaTaL_G: What do you have plugged into those interfaces? | 00:40 |
| === fabricius1 is now known as fabricius | ||
| FaTaL_G | other routers, computers, etc. | 00:40 |
| FaTaL_G | what does my infrastructure setup matter? | 00:40 |
| leftyfb | ok, so you're basically using those interfaces as a switch | 00:40 |
| Two_Dogs | FaTaL_G: what is the actual issue you are having? | 00:40 |
| FaTaL_G | on the br0 side, yes | 00:41 |
| leftyfb | If so, that was the answer.... "I'm using the extra interfaces a switch" | 00:41 |
| skatetensor | infrastructure :D its not a basement its a command center | 00:41 |
| leftyfb | moving right along ..... | 00:41 |
| FaTaL_G | ahhhhhhh I completely missed your pov or why you thought it was the wrong thing to do | 00:41 |
| leftyfb | FaTaL_G: to understand what you're doing with networking. It's sort of important to troubleshoot a network issue | 00:42 |
| leftyfb | Also curiosity. | 00:42 |
| FaTaL_G | the actual issue, is, since I performed sudo apt-get updat/ugrad and reboot last night, the enp0s31f6nic, which is my WAN, does not come up, I have to force it, and the isc-dhcp-server is failing on br0 | 00:43 |
| leftyfb | If you were doing it "just cuz", I'd say you were needlessly introducing complications into the setup | 00:43 |
| yes_ok | just curious if there is any kind of a hook that will directly switch to a numbered workspace in 18.04 | 00:43 |
| leftyfb | FaTaL_G: ok, so did I see above that one or more of your interfaces was not starting at boot? | 00:43 |
| leftyfb | yes_ok: you could look at key bindings and maybe make your own | 00:43 |
| FaTaL_G | leftyfb, I know networking, well. Just didnt know what was so sprising on why I'd have a bridge, or why it had anything to do with my questions so I flat out missed your concern | 00:44 |
| leftyfb | yes_ok: https://help.ubuntu.com/stable/ubuntu-help/shell-keyboard-shortcuts.html.en | 00:44 |
| FaTaL_G | both of these issues are on boot, if I force up and start the service, it is a ok | 00:45 |
| FaTaL_G | leftyfb, yes, enp0s31f6 | 00:45 |
| leftyfb | FaTaL_G: ok, lets start with that. Any idea why? | 00:45 |
| yes_ok | leftyfb: yeah, you can switch to "previous" or "next" but not to a numbered workspace. In 16.04 this was possible using gnome-tweak-tool, but this tool's settings are completely ignored by 18.04's customized Gnome | 00:46 |
| FaTaL_G | my curiosity, and I dont know how to prove it, is that the isc-dhcp-server is trying to serve dhcp to my ont, and my ont serve it to the enp0s31f6, so the isc service fails, and the enp0s31f6 shuts down | 00:46 |
| leftyfb | yes_ok: https://help.ubuntu.com/stable/ubuntu-help/keyboard-shortcuts-set.html | 00:46 |
| leftyfb | FaTaL_G: lets forget about dhcpd for now. Focus on figuring out why one of your interfaces isn't coming up. That might be the more pressing issue. | 00:47 |
| leftyfb | FaTaL_G: what's ont? | 00:47 |
| FaTaL_G | optical network terminal | 00:48 |
| FaTaL_G | fios service "modem" | 00:48 |
| leftyfb | ok, hold on | 00:48 |
| FaTaL_G | it works when I ifup it, because here we are talking lol | 00:48 |
| leftyfb | which interface is your fios plugged into? | 00:48 |
| FaTaL_G | and I didnt have this issue before the apt-get update/upgrade | 00:48 |
| FaTaL_G | enp0s31f6 | 00:48 |
| FaTaL_G | the one that ifdowns | 00:48 |
| leftyfb | is that part of the bridge? | 00:48 |
| FaTaL_G | syslog: ifup@enp0s31f6.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE | 00:49 |
| FaTaL_G | no | 00:49 |
| leftyfb | then your dhcp server shouldn't be doing anything with that interface | 00:50 |
| FaTaL_G | agreed | 00:50 |
| FaTaL_G | but considering I changed no configurations, and it was fine, now isnt... I wonder if it is | 00:50 |
| leftyfb | can you pastebin your network interfaces file? | 00:51 |
| FaTaL_G | or there is some race condition but again, not sure where to look | 00:51 |
| FaTaL_G | whats the pastebin cml tool name? | 00:51 |
| FaTaL_G | vs. pasting into a web browser | 00:51 |
| leftyfb | pastebinit | 00:51 |
| FaTaL_G | http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/mSc3jcN4FD/ | 00:52 |
| metalbat97 | need help I got problem on my package installation, i can't remove it neither install other packages because of this http://pastebin.centos.org/775056/ | 00:52 |
| leftyfb | metalbat97: did you try what the message says? | 00:53 |
| leftyfb | FaTaL_G: I don't see anything wrong. (though I will recommend trying out 1.1.1.1 for your DNS. It's a lot faster and more secure) | 00:55 |
| FaTaL_G | yea, I dont really want to use googles | 00:56 |
| FaTaL_G | there are a few I have been looking at | 00:56 |
| leftyfb | FaTaL_G: ok, at boot, what do you see in your dmesg and/or syslog for your WAN interface and why it's not starting? | 00:56 |
| FaTaL_G | I didnt see anything wrong either hahahaha, but strangely enough, it is not active on boot. I get the error I posted | 00:56 |
| FaTaL_G | is there a better log file? or perhaps I can increase log level | 00:56 |
| FaTaL_G | my iptables slams dmesg | 00:57 |
| FaTaL_G | not sure I'll ever see anything in there except iptables | 00:57 |
| leftyfb | FaTaL_G: sorry, I missed the error you posted about your interface not starting | 00:57 |
| leftyfb | FaTaL_G: also, how are you starting your iptables rules? | 00:58 |
| FaTaL_G | I'll pastebin manually (ingmoring ip) | 00:58 |
| FaTaL_G | script | 00:58 |
| FaTaL_G | the load tool package with a script | 00:58 |
| Two_Dogs | FaTaL_G: copy/paste & execute via terminal> journalctl -b --pri=3 | nc termbin.com 9999 ## share link output here | 00:59 |
| FaTaL_G | ... /sbin/iptables-restore < /etc/network/iptables | 01:00 |
| FaTaL_G | ... sudo iptables-apply /etc/network/iptables | 01:00 |
| FaTaL_G | essentially | 01:00 |
| FaTaL_G | and it just laods that on boot | 01:00 |
| yes_ok | leftyfb: thanks for your help, I think in 18.04 it will only be possible by using gsettings to manually change the keys. | 01:00 |
| Two_Dogs | FaTaL_G: i would troubleshoot networking without iptable rules applied first, might as well be able to see which is clobbering what | 01:01 |
| nullius | yes_ok, have you looked in the gui settings>devices>keyboard ? you can set them there as well | 01:02 |
| leftyfb | FaTaL_G: for your iptables rule, might I suggest something like this https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/zfqfmKPcWS/ | 01:02 |
| nullius | move into workspace[n] is an option yes_ok | 01:03 |
| FaTaL_G | leftyfb: http://termbin.com/qra5 | 01:03 |
| leftyfb | FaTaL_G: this way, the rules only get loaded after your WAN interface is up | 01:03 |
| FaTaL_G | think its causing an issue? | 01:04 |
| leftyfb | don't know | 01:05 |
| FaTaL_G | I mean, technically, I'd want the rules loaded BEFORE its up | 01:05 |
| leftyfb | why? | 01:05 |
| FaTaL_G | no >0 time chance of an open box | 01:05 |
| leftyfb | open box to what? | 01:05 |
| leftyfb | there's no internet | 01:06 |
| FaTaL_G | if the if is up, there is internet (eventually) | 01:06 |
| leftyfb | and once the if is up, rules get loaded | 01:06 |
| leftyfb | there's no time inbetween for anything to happen | 01:07 |
| FaTaL_G | btw, the paste I did above | 01:07 |
| leftyfb | it's how I've been running my rules for years | 01:07 |
| FaTaL_G | they are "simple" anti ad-domain redirects | 01:08 |
| leftyfb | yeah, I don't see anything about your interface besides pcap complaining about it not being up | 01:08 |
| FaTaL_G | makes that log messy | 01:08 |
| leftyfb | this is the issue for your dhcp | 01:08 |
| FaTaL_G | what is? | 01:09 |
| leftyfb | https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/RKyt5hZpy5/ | 01:09 |
| FaTaL_G | thats new....... | 01:09 |

| FaTaL_G | I have one in there | 01:10 |
| leftyfb | FaTaL_G: Can you pastebin your dhcpd.conf? | 01:11 |
| Two_Dogs | FaTaL_G: and maned/bind is borked too | 01:11 |
| Two_Dogs | named :) | 01:12 |
| leftyfb | FaTaL_G: also, I would see if disabling iptables and rebooting resolves either the interface or dhcpd issue | 01:12 |
| metalbat97 | leftyfb: yeah and still fail | 01:12 |
| leftyfb | metalbat97: please pastebin the failure | 01:12 |
| yes_ok | nullius: yes, the settings aren't there, or in gnome-tweaks. I think it's because 18.04 uses "dynamic" workspaces by default, and so they simply omitted any way to create shortcuts to individual workspaces. using gsettings is cumbersome to say the least, but I believe it will work | 01:12 |
| FaTaL_G | heres the snippet with it: https://pastebin.com/3ygFjBTd | 01:13 |
| leftyfb | metalbat97: what version of ubuntu are you running? | 01:13 |
| FaTaL_G | Two_Dogs: where did you see an issue on bind? | 01:15 |
| metalbat97 | leftyfb: i got signal broken http://pastebin.centos.org/775071/ | 01:15 |
| Two_Dogs | FaTaL_G: all the named issues | 01:15 |
| Two_Dogs | FaTaL_G: all the named issues on the termbin dump | 01:15 |
| leftyfb | FaTaL_G: lets try rebooting without iptables. See if either of the issues is resolved. You should also then immediately pastebin syslog, journal and dmesg to see if there's errors with the interface that's not starting | 01:15 |
| FaTaL_G | leftyfb: my iptables is active right now, and only handles rules out the WAN really (more precisely in), I tested it quite a bit before I made it live | 01:16 |
| jeffguorg | morning, dudes(CST 9:15am) | 01:16 |
| FaTaL_G | Two_Dogs: thats intentional | 01:16 |
| Two_Dogs | FaTaL_G: ok | 01:16 |
| FaTaL_G | Those are null redirects for ad-domains | 01:16 |
| leftyfb | FaTaL_G: you know you only need 3 lines for iptables for routing right? | 01:16 |
| Two_Dogs | FaTaL_G: i found dnsmasq to be less painful in domain stripping | 01:16 |
| FaTaL_G | every little bit counts when it comes to reducing click bait for kids/spouse hahaha | 01:16 |
| leftyfb | FaTaL_G: http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/nZSPScC23g/ | 01:17 |
| FaTaL_G | Two_Dogs: I've read that, seems that they both have their pros and cons | 01:18 |
| metalbat97 | leftyfb: i have ubuntu xenial | 01:18 |
| leftyfb | metalbat97: looks like your issue has to do with the lubuntu-dev ppa. I would use ppa-purge to purge all the packages installed from it and remove the ppa. Then install lxde through the supported official repos | 01:19 |
| leftyfb | Ricardus: woah, are you really on a mini9? | 01:20 |

| FaTaL_G | leftyfb: that is simple, basic, and denies everything in unless the connection is already established. Agreed. But again, my table is ok | 01:20 |
| Two_Dogs | FaTaL_G: i have not seen a con to dnsmasq | 01:20 |
| Ricardus | leftyfb, yeah, that coffee table machine is a mini 9 runnng luntuntu | 01:20 |
| FaTaL_G | and I have other content ;) | 01:20 |
| leftyfb | FaTaL_G: not if it's doing anything more complicated and potentially causing issues with your interface at boot | 01:20 |
| Ricardus | leftyfb, I always have it on when I'm in the living room | 01:21 |
| leftyfb | FaTaL_G: it could also be a timing thing ... I'd say try it | 01:21 |
| qwefytuiityty | or 3 - 30%, not 50 -90% or 100% | 01:21 |
| leftyfb | Ricardus: impressive. I've got 2 of them but really can't stand them. That pipe key kills me. | 01:21 |
| FaTaL_G | Two_Dogs: Im not saying there is one, but in reading and choosing which to use, there was numerous back and forth on it. I just went with one and called it day | 01:21 |
| Two_Dogs | FaTaL_G: and that race condition you brought, i see it with ssd | 01:21 |
| FaTaL_G | I have ssd | 01:22 |
| Two_Dogs | :) | 01:22 |
| FaTaL_G | what race condition? | 01:22 |
| FaTaL_G | you mena in april? | 01:22 |
| metalbat97 | leftyfb: its make sense, i will try it first thanks | 01:24 |

| masterpiece | I have a question about launchpad, Can I ask it here? | 01:52 |
| LenPayne | I'm having trouble using Wayland on 18.04. It's not an option in gdm. I had been faithfully using it in 17.10. During boot, I get the following message prior to gdm booting: | 01:55 |
| LenPayne | gnome-shell[1807]: Failed to create backend: Failed to initialize renderer: Missing extension for GBM renderer: EGL_KHR_platform_gbm, Missing EGL extensions required for EGLDevice renderer: EGL_EXT_device_base | 01:55 |
| LenPayne | I think this is telling me "We can't load Wayland, it's missing some stuff." A similar issue was presented here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1733136 but they were dealing a lot with software rendering, and I don't appear to be software rendering (glxinfo shows I'm using the Intel driver, i915) | 01:57 |

| Two_Dogs | is gnome-shell suppose to be stable on wayland? | 02:22 |
| LenPayne | I don't know if this is an unrelated issue (ie- cruft from something that got removed during the 18.04 upgrade) or if this is the actual issue. | 02:22 |
| LenPayne | So far as I know gnome-shell has been stable on wayland since at least 17.10, as wayland was the default for 17.10 | 02:23 |
| Two_Dogs | wayland is stable on plasma here https://git.io/vpAHG | 02:24 |

| debauchery1st | guiverc: fair deuce | 02:34 |
| debauchery1st | the only hiccup I experienced on the latest kubuntu 18.04 was with my wifi adapter | 02:36 |
| debauchery1st | it needed bcmwl-kernel-source | 02:37 |
| debauchery1st | I was able to "apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source" on the live install | 02:37 |
| debauchery1st | then I just needed to disable and re-enable the driver via system-settings | 02:38 |
| debauchery1st | However, once installed it complained of missing 2 .deb files | 02:38 |
| debauchery1st | libdpkg-perl_1.19.0.5ubuntu2_all.deb & libfile-fcntllock-perl_0.22-3build2_amd64.deb | 02:38 |
| debauchery1st | I rebooted into the live-usb, downloaded the .deb files, saved them to the freshly installed system | 02:39 |
| granttrec | does anyone know how to check repos configured in aptitude? | 02:39 |
| debauchery1st | then once I rebooted I was able to "dpkg -i libdpkg-perl_1.19.0.5ubuntu2_all.deb libfile-fcntllock-perl_0.22-3build2_amd64.deb" followed by "apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source" | 02:40 |
| debauchery1st | and my wifi worked | 02:40 |
| oerheks | granttrec, that would be the same lists as for apt | 02:41 |

| granttrec | oerheks: apt search found a package aptitude did not, how do I resolve that | 02:42 |
| oerheks | that is new to me, and unlikely | 02:43 |
| guiverc | granttrec, in a browser I find "http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=" (adding package name) useful.. | 02:44 |
| granttrec | guiverc: I find that defeats the purpose of the tool, the is a config file so maybe there is hope | 02:46 |

| Two_Dogs | ddremveas: you have a typical installed to hardware system? | 04:32 |
| ddremveas | When I press power button (hardware) it always asks me what to do, it's not configurable by settings. | 04:32 |
| ddremveas | Yes, from alternate iso | 04:32 |
| Two_Dogs | ddremveas: could you have not installed the desktop completely? | 04:33 |
| ddremveas | But one time I uninstalled power manager to set screen shading off. | 04:33 |
| Two_Dogs | so yes, tweaked install | 04:34 |
| ddremveas | After I installed it again (the screen shaded after 20 min anyway) it stopped getting my settings. | 04:35 |

| Two_Dogs | Draegon: cool, the updated driver did the trick then? | 04:59 |
| Draegon | Yeah, pressure sensitivity works, and no more jerky pixelated lines. Had to get the monitor tablet sorted, that updated page showed how to limit the tablet (actually the Stylus) to only work with one monitor, and just finished setting the hot keys. It is done. :-) | 05:01 |

| darktemplar | What should I Do? | 07:01 |
| anonymip | ah, now I got ht hostname to stick, I followed this guide: https://websiteforstudents.com/updating-changing-the-hostname-on-ubuntu-18-04-beta-server/ | 07:02 |
| Draegon | Reading some posts online, some dating back up to 8 years ago, there is recommendations to save the xsetwacom options as either a startup script, in /etc/x11/xorg.conf.d/, or in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/ directories. Is there a specific preference to which to store the settings? | 07:04 |
| guiverc | darktemplar, if you open http://ppa.launchpad.net/n-muench/programs-ppa/ubuntu/dists/ in a browser, you'll note no artful directory; ie. 17.10 isn't supported | 07:06 |
| === kallesbar_ is now known as kallesbar | ||
| afidegnum | Flannel: i had that error of boot partition being full, | 07:12 |
| afidegnum | how do i clear it ? | 07:12 |
| Flannel | afidegnum: Do you have a separate /boot partition? or a separate / partition? or just one big partition? or what? | 07:12 |
| afidegnum | 1 big partition | 07:13 |
| darktemplar | guiverc, If 17.10's not supported, Than what should I do? | 07:13 |
| guiverc | darktemplar, i don't know why you added it (the ppa), but I'd remove it & look for another source for whatever reason you added the ppa | 07:14 |
| Flannel | afidegnum: ok. With one big partition, you PROBABLY have something /else/ filling up your partition. You should look around and see what it is. If you had a separate /boot partition, it'd be a simple apt command to fix your problem. But I expect you have a runaway log file or some other data file that's grown way too big. | 07:14 |
| guiverc | for many ppa's, they often provide support (eg. bionic) some time after release; but that directory hadn't been updated since 15.04 as I recall (directory & names of releases) | 07:15 |
| darktemplar | guiverc, I didn't know what I was doing hahaha. Hm, not to be that guy but do you think you could 'Attempt' to explain to me to me how to pick another server? | 07:15 |
| afidegnum | Flannel: is ther a way to resize the boot partition? | 07:15 |
| Flannel | afidegnum: You don't have a boot partition. | 07:16 |
| Flannel | afidegnum: So, you have something else, besides /boot stuff, filling up your partition. | 07:16 |
| guiverc | i meant another source (not server). ie. whatever search you did that found that ppa, needs to be redone to find another source for a solution - that ppa would only work if you used 14.04 Trusty (for supported releases) | 07:17 |
| afidegnum | this is what i have https://pasteboard.co/HlIgzO7.png | 07:18 |
| guiverc | (yeah sorry darktemplar, i'm not the clearest with language...) | 07:18 |
| afidegnum | Flannel: and this https://pasteboard.co/HlIh48E.png | 07:19 |
| darktemplar | guiverc, I'm so confused.. Where should I change the Server/PPA? | 07:19 |
| Flannel | afidegnum: pastebin `df -h`, that's easier and all in one place | 07:19 |
| guiverc | darktemplar, that ppa does NOT support 17.10, so your current only choice is to remove it. | 07:20 |
| afidegnum | Flannel: https://ghostbin.com/paste/nvgj7 | 07:21 |
| guiverc | darktemplar, why did you add that ppa to your system? You need to find somewhere else (that supports 17.10) that can provide an answer for whatever that was. | 07:21 |
| Flannel | afidegnum: ok, you do have a separate /boot then. So, what has happened is, over the course of your updates, you've added a lot of new kernel versions, and they've filled up /boot. All you need to do is remove them. One easy way of doing this would be to simply `sudo apt-get autoremove` | 07:22 |
| afidegnum | ok, | 07:22 |
| Flannel | afidegnum: Based on the output of your original pastebin, that'll remove like five kernel versions (or maybe more?) | 07:23 |
| afidegnum | yes, that's what's happening | 07:23 |
| guiverc | darktemplar, the command to remove will likely be `sudo add-apt-repository --remove http://ppa.launchpad.net/n-muench/programs-ppa/ubuntu` (no backquotes) | 07:24 |

| pragomer | when creating a .desktop file in my desktop folder under ubuntu 18.04 gnome, the file is not visible | 07:55 |
| pragomer | how can I change that? | 07:55 |
| Two_Dogs | pragomer: created how? | 07:56 |
| ledeni | pragomer, install gnome tweak tool | 07:56 |
| pragomer | gnome-tweak-tool is installed | 07:57 |
| Tegu | do you need a tweak tool to show hidden files? | 07:57 |
| pragomer | I created the desktop file in terminal an called it lets say mystarter.desktop | 07:57 |
| pragomer | with gnome-tweak-tool I can let display home folder, trash, etc. on desktop. | 07:58 |
| pragomer | but the desktop-file does not appear | 07:58 |
| Norux | Tegu: no. `ls -a` will show hidden files. Or in Nautilus, you can use Ctrl-H. | 07:58 |
| Tegu | ah, I misunderstood. so it doesn't start with . so it's not hidden | 07:58 |
| pragomer | the file is NOT a hidden file (that would begin with a ".") | 07:58 |
| Two_Dogs | pragomer: created file how? | 07:58 |
| pragomer | see above: via terminal and nano | 07:58 |
| Norux | pragomer: cat mystarter.desktop | nc termbin.com 9999 | 07:59 |
| Two_Dogs | pragomer: copy/paste & execute via terminal> ls ~/Desktop | 07:59 |
| pragomer | ok. i tried to copy a desktop file (the one from gimp) from /usr/share/applications | 07:59 |

| Draegon | Two_Dogs: know anything about making settings permanent after a reboot? | 08:00 |
| Two_Dogs | Draegon: the setting is permanent on cold boot? | 08:01 |
| Draegon | nope | 08:01 |
| Two_Dogs | Draegon: explain | 08:01 |
| Two_Dogs | Draegon: making stuff permanent is simple in general, the location of the entry is what matters | 08:01 |
| Draegon | When I set the options with xsetwacom in terminal, it seems they dont stay, once the X server restarts, they all gone. | 08:02 |
| Two_Dogs | Draegon: ahh, ok | 08:02 |
| Draegon | From reading some posts, some dating back up to 8 years ago, there is recommendations to save the xsetwacom options as either a startup script, in /etc/x11/xorg.conf.d/, or in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/ directories. Just wondering if there is specific preference to which to store the settings within? | 08:03 |
| Two_Dogs | Draegon: the command executed include 'sudo' via terminal? | 08:03 |
| Two_Dogs | Draegon: i would think not | 08:04 |
| Two_Dogs | Draegon: share command you execute via terminal here | 08:04 |
| Draegon | No, doesn't matter, as soon as reboot/cold boot, all gone. | 08:04 |

| Two_Dogs | Draegon: and you tried the command and it works fine? | 08:06 |
| Draegon | and to set the tablet stylus to only work on my main monitor, "xsetwacom set "UC-LOIC TABLET 1060 Pen stylus" MapToOutput DVI-I-1" | 08:06 |
| Two_Dogs | Draegon: and you tried the command and it works fine? | 08:06 |

| Draegon | Have rebooted 3 times, I have to re-enter them in terminal each time, and they take effect immediately, until reboot/cold boot | 08:07 |
| Two_Dogs | Draegon: look at the root of your home space, ~/ <--folder , /home/youruser/ <-- for .xnitrc | 08:07 |
| Two_Dogs | Draegon: does that file exist? | 08:07 |
| Draegon | checked in /, /home, and /home/(my account), no matching file | 08:09 |

| permanoob | NEWBuntu yes, its not so much the setup process, its more that it is temperamental, you click one thing that it doesn't like you doing and something else stops working etc...major headache if its your main machine and you need the system to just work to get something urgent done, I'm wondering if there is a professional tech support number that can can assist with set up and trouble shooting any problems that arise? not sure yet | 10:30 |

| MonkeyDust | Guest22135 this is the ubuntu support channel | 10:50 |
| MonkeyDust | bobdobbs try sudo apt update first | 10:52 |
| mjayk | Is there a way to see the version of a program before you install it via snap | 10:52 |
| Guest22135 | remove | 10:52 |
| bobdobbs | MonkeyDust: will do | 10:52 |
| ikonia | mjayk: thats an interesting question around snap, I think the real question is the versions of ALL the programs contained in a snap | 10:52 |
| ikonia | as the snap will bundle the app you want + all the dependencies | 10:52 |
| brainwash | bobdobbs: I would remove kio-smtp | 10:53 |
| bobdobbs | MonkeyDust: I ran 'apt-update'. It returned successfully. I then ran 'apt-get install -f'. I got the same result as before | 10:54 |
| brainwash | !info kio-smtp bionic | 10:56 |
| ubottu | Package kio-smtp does not exist in bionic | 10:56 |
| brainwash | so, you shouldn't need it anymore | 10:56 |
| bobdobbs | brb. must reboot router | 10:56 |

| bobdobbs | Sorry, I just don't understand package management. Ultimately I just want to get a printer working. In order to do this I have to install a certain package. But to do that I have to unbreak apt. | 11:24 |
| brainwash | bobdobbs: removing the package did not work? | 11:24 |
| bobdobbs | removing which package? | 11:25 |
| brainwash | kio-smtp | 11:25 |
| brainwash | which is not available anymore in 18.04 | 11:25 |
| === tom is now known as Guest53662 | ||
| bobdobbs | I don't know what that is. I'll try removing it. | 11:25 |
| brainwash | it's the package which causes the error | 11:26 |
| tewa | Sudo without password? the "tewa ALL=(ALL:ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL" line in visudo doesn't seem to work. | 11:26 |
| jink | You edited the file with visudo? | 11:27 |
| tewa | jink yep, used "sudo visudo" and edited the file. | 11:28 |
| jink | Just checking. :D | 11:28 |
| bobdobbs | MonkeyDust: I don't know if I've got it installed or not. But if I do 'apt-get remove kio-smtp' I get an error related to missing packages. I'll pastebin it... | 11:28 |
| geirha | tewa: lose the (ALL:ALL) | 11:28 |
| tewa | jink :D | 11:28 |
| tewa | geirha oh? so just "tewa NOPASSWD: ALL"? | 11:29 |
| jink | I have: %sudo ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL | 11:29 |
| geirha | also, the order of the lines in sudoers matters. You want it at the end | 11:29 |
| MonkeyDust | tewa sudo without password is not a good idea, it's disabling your security | 11:29 |
| geirha | tewa ALL = NOPASSWD: ALL | 11:29 |
| bobdobbs | The silly thing about that error is that tells me to run a command... which returns the error that I'm trying to address. | 11:29 |
| tewa | MonkeyDust if they got so far into the system or so far into my apartment and through my many lava traps, I say they deserve some root access :) | 11:30 |
| tewa | geirha ah, moving it to the end was what made it tick. thanks! :D | 11:31 |
| MonkeyDust | bobdobbs try this sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/apt/lists/lock | 11:33 |
| bobdobbs | MonkeyDust: ok. When I entered that I just got the prompt back. No errors, warnings or other feedback. | 11:34 |
| MonkeyDust | bobdobbs it should havde unlocked apt | 11:36 |
| bobdobbs | unfortunately I'm still getting the same error | 11:37 |
| MonkeyDust | odd | 11:37 |
| MonkeyDust | bobdobbs is apt unusable at all? | 11:38 |
| mgedmin | bobdobbs: try sudo dpkg --remove kio-smtp; sudo apt-get install -f | 11:39 |
| bobdobbs | ok | 11:39 |
| mgedmin | that should fix the error I see in https://hastebin.com/doboqavaxi.http | 11:39 |

| newhoa | I'm having a problem with gdebi. When I open a .deb with gdebi and hit install, it simply closes gdebi. It doesn't ask for a password to install or anything, just closes. If I run from terminal gdebi-gtk "path/to/deb.deb" and click install, it prompts for password and installs. | 11:42 |
| brainwash | password prompt appears in the terminal window? | 11:43 |

| newhoa | Also, while I'm here. I noticed gksu is gone. I looked it up and see that software uses pkexec now. If I'm in a terminal and want to run something as root, do I used pkexec whatever now? | 11:52 |
| newhoa | Is that still safer or a better way than su or sudo? | 11:52 |
| jeremy31 | newhoa pkexec is better than sudo for GUI | 11:53 |
| mgedmin | newhoa: it's something the app's developer has to do, rather than something a user can choose to do | 11:53 |
| === B is now known as Guest25098 | ||
| mgedmin | the idea is to run GUI code without superuser permissions, for safety | 11:53 |
| mgedmin | (on Wayland root can't even do any GUI stuff, by design) | 11:53 |
| newhoa | jeremy31: thanks | 11:54 |
| newhoa | mgedmin: Was gksu different? Could it run any app? Does pkexec now only work on apps that made it compatible or something? | 11:54 |
| mgedmin | gksu asks for password, pkexec checks PolicyKit authorization rules and might be more flexible | 11:56 |
| newhoa | Ah, I see. I'm reading about it now. So most apps won't work with pkexec. I just tried a few, I'm used to opening geany with gksu for quick root edits. | 12:01 |
| * mgedmin stil uses sudo vim in a terminal, although he should be using sudoedit ... | 12:03 | |
| mgedmin | nautilus (and other gnome apps) supports an admin:/// "protocol" that lets you edit any file on your file system as root, without being root | 12:03 |

| afx | hello. im trying to set a new hostname on 18.04 with hostnamectl set-hostname <str> but it is not persistent on reboot for some reason. | 12:05 |
| afx | its a freshly installed virtual machine :) | 12:06 |
| === LabMonkey is now known as Mechanismus | ||
| mgedmin | afx: does /etc/hostname look right? what about /etc/hosts? AFAIU hostnamectl updates one but not the other | 12:08 |
| afx | ye the etc/hostname is with the new name, but etc/hosts is | 12:09 |
| afx | 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost | 12:09 |
| afx | ::1 localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6 | 12:09 |
| afx | but no metion of the old name there | 12:10 |
| mgedmin | if /etc/hostname has the new name, how on earth does the hostname revert to the old one on reboot??? | 12:12 |
| afx | i have no idea :) | 12:12 |
| mgedmin | what sort of VM is it? | 12:12 |
| afx | qemu/kvm | 12:12 |
| mgedmin | could there be any scripts running on boot that reinitialize stuff (like the hostname)? | 12:13 |
| afx | ive even removed domain-name and host-name from the request section of /etc/dhcp/dhclient.conf just in case but no difference | 12:13 |
| mgedmin | cloud-init, or whatever? | 12:13 |
| afx | nope. ive installed it from iso | 12:13 |
| afx | there is docker installed tho | 12:13 |
| JimBuntu | afx, if you save a file in $HOME or perhaps on the desktop, is it also not present upon reboot? | 12:14 |
| afx | JimBuntu: it is being saved | 12:15 |
| JimBuntu | afx, OK, that rules out any odd configuration for the VM to be clean at each use. | 12:17 |
| JimBuntu | Change the /etc/hostname file, log the "modified/created" time... reboot... check, is it different | 12:19 |
| afx | ive installed another 18.04 (fresh from the initial reboot) | 12:19 |
| afx | now i can see that /etc/hostname is not being changed | 12:20 |
| afx | on the previous machine perhaps i edit it manually | 12:20 |
| afx | in panic :) | 12:20 |
| afx | i mean | 12:20 |
| JimBuntu | ghosts in the machine, please call 1-800-555-2368 for the GhostBusters | 12:20 |
| afx | yea :) | 12:21 |
| afx | ok so. after i issue the set-hostname command, the /etc/hostname is being changed | 12:21 |
| afx | after i reboot it is back with the old name | 12:21 |
| afx | weird... | 12:21 |
| blackflow | nuh-huh. that's systemd. | 12:22 |
| afx | its evil.. | 12:22 |
| mgedmin | so if you change /etc/hostname manually and reboot, will it revert as well? | 12:24 |
| afx | yep | 12:24 |
| mgedmin | how are you rebooting anyway? are the disks synced and cleanly unmounted? (/me is grasping for straws) | 12:25 |
| afx | thats the first thing i tried | 12:25 |
| afx | then i use 'reboot' command :) | 12:25 |
| mgedmin | if you look in journalctl, does it show the hostname changing? | 12:25 |
| mgedmin | somewhere mid-stream during boot? | 12:25 |

| ruid | then I tried the same exact password with sudo, no luck | 12:43 |
| ruid | then ran `sudo passwd root` and it gave me a prompt, which I exited | 12:44 |

| mgedmin | Beef_wgtn: pastebin.com is under heavy load and failing for me, can you re-paste to paste.ubuntu.com or some other pastebin site? | 13:48 |
| Pcost8300 | we are changing the server root password, that was the problem, someone entered with those credentials the providers gave us and made modifications without asking. | 13:48 |
| Pcost8300 | there was only root and postgres user when i checked out | 13:49 |
| mgedmin | Pcost8300: /var/log/dpkg.log should have a list of all packages installed and removed | 13:49 |
| mgedmin | also I recommend etckeeper, so configs in /etc will be automatically versioned in git and you could recover them after an accidental apt purge | 13:50 |

| honiop | genii; updating gives me errors at the end of it | 15:04 |

| honiop | tgm4883: is there a way to fix it ? without messing up the current installation ? i just need to install wine | 15:05 |
| tgm4883 | honiop: either A) You installed a third party repo and it's getting some packages from there (more likely), which is unsupported, or you're on an unsupported version of Ubuntu since the version of libc6 it's trying to install is not in a supported version of Ubuntu (less likely) | 15:05 |

| tgm4883 | !eol | honiop | 15:06 |
| ubottu | honiop: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 15:06 |
| NOOBuntu | The help page i was trying to follow said to navigate to where the .iso is located | 15:06 |
| tgm4883 | honiop: Looks like it was the latter of the two options. You need to upgrade | 15:06 |
| nicofrand | NOOBuntu well, if you are using windows, I can't help | 15:06 |
| tgm4883 | honiop: and soon. 15.04 hasn't received updates in around 3 years... | 15:07 |
| NOOBuntu | im using ubuntu IN windows. still no | 15:07 |
| NOOBuntu | ? | 15:07 |
| nicofrand | NOOBuntu the ISO is where your browser put it… try opening the folder of the file you downloaded from your browser | 15:07 |
| NOOBuntu | i know where it is within windows. I'm trying to access it using the ubuntu app within windows 10 | 15:07 |
| honiop | tgm4883: I can't upgrade now, can i fix it without having to upgrade ? | 15:07 |
| NOOBuntu | that i just installed, etc | 15:07 |
| tgm4883 | honiop: Maybe? It would take a lot of trial and error, and that's assuming that old-releases even has packages for your version anymore | 15:08 |
| nicofrand | NOOBuntu how did you install ubuntu in windows ? | 15:08 |
| tgm4883 | honiop: honestly, I'd probably just wipe and install fresh | 15:08 |
| NOOBuntu | im just looking for a way to verify my download. | 15:08 |
| NOOBuntu | well | 15:09 |
| NOOBuntu | It's complicated. still over my head... but I installed a Windows 10 app | 15:09 |
| tomreyn | !wsl | NOOBuntu | 15:10 |
| ubottu | NOOBuntu: Windows 10 has a feature called Windows Subsystem for Linux, which allows it to run Ubuntu (and other Linux distro) userspace programs without porting/recompliation. For discussion and support, see #ubuntu-on-windows or ##windows. For installation instructions, see https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/commandline/wsl/install_guide | 15:10 |
| NOOBuntu | i had to open Windows PowerShell and then enable WSL (which I guess allows users to access bash for administrative purposes...?() | 15:10 |
| NOOBuntu | ubottu yes | 15:10 |
| honiop | tgm4883: what can i do to fix it should i remove third party repos ?? | 15:11 |
| NOOBuntu | oh that's a boit | 15:11 |
| NOOBuntu | bot* also | 15:11 |
| NOOBuntu | ah okay... | 15:11 |
| tomreyn | NOOBuntu: it's a bot, which is trying to tell you we don't support WSL here, not on *this* channel. | 15:11 |
| nicofrand | NOOBuntu I think if you downloaded the app, you don't have an ISO | 15:11 |
| tgm4883 | honiop: I've given you my recommendation, which is to reinstall. You could try disabling third party repos and switching to old-releases. What you can't do is get support for it here | 15:11 |
| tgm4883 | nicofrand: he has both | 15:12 |
| tgm4883 | NOOBuntu: Try the WSL specific channel, or use one of the hash checker apps for windows | 15:12 |
| tomreyn | NOOBuntu: here's how to verify your download: https://tutorials.ubuntu.com/tutorial/tutorial-how-to-verify-ubuntu | 15:13 |
| NOOBuntu | tgm4883 thank you. if you can recommend any hash checker apps... or how to use them. I've tried a few and keep running into issues | 15:13 |
| NOOBuntu | im in the ubuntu on windows room now | 15:13 |
| tgm4883 | tomreyn: that doesn't actually explain where the ISO is though | 15:13 |
| tgm4883 | NOOBuntu: I can't, as my Windows exists in a VM for work purposes | 15:13 |
| NOOBuntu | that's fine. I appreciate your help nonetheless. I SHALL PERSIST\ | 15:14 |
| tgm4883 | NOOBuntu: oh you know what, I have WSL installed in my VM | 15:14 |
| tgm4883 | NOOBuntu: You're C drive is at /mnt/c | 15:14 |
| tgm4883 | NOOBuntu: so you just need to drill down to the ISO from that point and md5sum it there | 15:15 |
| tomreyn | tgm4883: that's right, but "i know where it is within windows", so NOOBuntu may use windows utilities to verify it. | 15:15 |
| NOOBuntu | -bash: /mnt/c: Is a directory | 15:15 |
| ioria | once certutil -hashfile file.iso , idk if still available | 15:15 |
| tgm4883 | tomreyn: that tutorial doesn't give any recommendations for windows apps... | 15:15 |
| pragmaticenigma | tgm4883: Also, we've directed NOOBuntu to the #ubuntu-on-windows channel... Let's not continue the support here as it isn't supported on this channel please | 15:16 |
| NOOBuntu | how do I change directories | 15:16 |
| tgm4883 | NOOBuntu: correct | 15:16 |
| NOOBuntu | pragmaticenigma there's nobody there. | 15:16 |
| NOOBuntu | tgm4883 may I direct message you | 15:16 |
| NOOBuntu | ill keep it short | 15:16 |
| pragmaticenigma | PMs are not allowed NOOBuntu | 15:17 |
| pragmaticenigma | #ubuntu-on-windows | 15:17 |
| tgm4883 | I'd argue that it is supported here, but I'll just join the other channel | 15:17 |
| tomreyn | tgm4883: well there's a windows builds of the utilities discussed on this tutorial, but then it doesn't discuss where to get them and how to use them, so i guess you have a point. | 15:17 |

| compdoc | if you have 32bit 14.04, is there an upgrade path to 64bit 18.04? or do you have to wipe and reinstall? | 16:37 |
| ioria | mitic, maybe you can free some space in /boot (if boot is the issue); if you can't boot in recovery, you need a livecd | 16:37 |
| jcdutton | compdoc, you can upgrade, but you would probably need to upgrade a release at a time and it will take a long time. Probably better to reinstall 64 bit. | 16:37 |
| mitic | ioria, I booted succesfully up in xubuntu | 16:37 |

| ioria | mitic, paste sudo parted -l | 16:51 |

| tomreyn | mitic: you can run "export LANG=C" to make applications output text in english language. | 17:05 |

| oerheks | 17 gb is pretty small for an ubuntu install | 17:10 |
| oerheks | mitic, uh oh ... https://www.reddit.com/r/Ubuntu/comments/8ke0vq/win10_spring_update_screwed_up_grub/ | 17:15 |
| oerheks | Win10 spring Update screwed up Grub. | 17:15 |
| oerheks | fix = boot-repair | 17:15 |
| oerheks | ioria ^^ | 17:16 |
| sseann | Can anyone tell me what the equivalent 'apt-get -y upgrade' is for 'apt upgrade'? 'apt -y upgrade' does not skip the Y/N prompt. Thanks | 17:18 |
| mitic | oerheks, i booted succesfully in Xubuntu. fsck command stucked at "reached target swap" | 17:18 |
| mitic | oerheks, when I tried to fix im recovery mode | 17:18 |
| mitic | oerheks, can I run older version of ubuntu and fix with boot - repair? tnx :) | 17:19 |
| oerheks | mitic, worth the try | 17:19 |
| oerheks | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair | 17:20 |
| mitic | oerheks, ioria I will report, tnx | 17:20 |
| oerheks | 2nd option, install it in a live ubuntu iso | 17:20 |
| nacc | sseann: i'm not sure if there is one, tbh | 17:22 |
| pragmaticenigma | sseann: "apt" is a wrapper that invokes the other "apt-*" tools. If you are attempting to automate, it is documented you should use the actual "apt-*" program and not use "apt" | 17:24 |
| nacc | pragmaticenigma: apt isn't a wrapper. | 17:24 |
| nacc | pragmaticenigma: apt is a completely different program. | 17:24 |
| sseann | pragmaticenigma, thank you for that info. I was under the impression that we were supposed to only use 'apt' from now on. | 17:24 |
| nacc | pragmaticenigma: you are correct that apt does warn you not to use it in scripts | 17:24 |
| pragmaticenigma | nacc: thanks for the clarification (CC: sseann ) | 17:26 |
| matjam | man page of apt(8): The apt command is meant to be pleasant for end users and does not need to be backward compatible like apt-get(8). | 17:27 |
| pragmaticenigma | !info apt-get bionic | 17:29 |
| ubottu | Package apt-get does not exist in bionic | 17:29 |
| pragmaticenigma | uhoh | 17:29 |
| b-yeezi | pdftk was removed in bionic, which is one of my work horses. Good thing is the debs from 17.10 work just fine. | 17:32 |
| markie-- | im trying to download a torrent file to external HD using transmission, it works for a few secs then stops with an error, i think it is because the HD mounts up at the same time which prevents transmission dl to it, any ideas? | 17:32 |
| matjam | pragmaticenigma: its in the apt package. | 17:32 |
| * pragmaticenigma goes whew! | 17:32 | |
| tomreyn | markie--: is there anything in 'dmesg -T' output on this? | 17:33 |
| pragmaticenigma | b-yeezi: appears it was dropped from the repos in 18.04... would ghostscript be an acceptable stand in? | 17:33 |
| tomreyn | markie--: also, what Is the error? | 17:34 |
| pragmaticenigma | markie--: Does transmission have the ability to specify a "leeching" and "seeding" folder? (or downloading and completed) | 17:34 |
| markie-- | tomreyn: transmission gives me a permission denied error | 17:34 |
| tomreyn | markie--: well then we probably have no reason not to believe it lacks permission. | 17:35 |
| tomreyn | markie--: how do you mount the partitions on the external drive, is the user running transmission able to write to it? | 17:36 |
| markie-- | tomreyn: yes, it kind of works for a moment, download a little bit, even shows the parts of the torrent/folder on HD, but then stops due to permission error | 17:39 |
| markie-- | i think it auto mounts | 17:39 |
| tomreyn | markie--: use the "mount" command and paste the line about the file system mounted form the external drive. also run "ps awx | grep transmission" and post the user (first column) running transmission | 17:42 |
| pragmaticenigma | markie--: can you write a regular file to the external harddrive? | 17:43 |
| tomreyn | markie--: chances are transmission never actually stores anything to the file system on the external disk but just caches the download, and once it tries to write it fails. | 17:43 |
| pragmaticenigma | had the same line of thinking tomreyn | 17:44 |
| tomreyn | ;-) | 17:44 |
| markie-- | pragmaticenigma: yes i can write a text file to it. i think the hd automounts at the same time during dl and brings a conflict? | 17:48 |
| pragmaticenigma | markie--: once a drive is mounted, it's mounted... what do you mean "automounts" | 17:49 |
| markie-- | pragmaticenigma: if you plug it in then that little box comes up asking if you want to explore the hd, that happens again when transmission starts to write to it | 17:51 |
| pragmaticenigma | markie--: is the drive entering a sleep state? | 17:52 |
| pragmaticenigma | or standby | 17:52 |
| markie-- | pragmaticenigma: maybe? | 17:52 |
| Jordan_U | markie--: If you want a volume to always be available for applications to write to then you should add it to your /etc/fstab so that it gets mounted automatically at boot. | 17:53 |
| Jordan_U | !fstab | markie-- | 17:53 |
| ubottu | markie--: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.pclosmag.com/html/Issues/200709/page07.html and !Partitions | 17:53 |
| pragmaticenigma | Jordan_U: that makes sense if the drive is intended to stay with the machine. It may not help with the issue the drive isn't available when an application goes to write to the drive | 17:54 |
| markie-- | ok, maybe it's a transmission issue. should i try a different client | 17:54 |
| pragmaticenigma | markie--: I don't believe a change in client will make a difference... If the drive has a status light, usually steady means the drive is online, blinking is standby... does that happen? | 17:56 |
| markie-- | pragmaticenigma: ahh the status light goes off after awhile | 17:57 |
| pragmaticenigma | markie--: so the issue is the drive is entering a lower power state to conserve energy. You will need to look up the documentation on the drive to see if there is a way to turn that feature off. It may require Windows to do so | 17:58 |
| markie-- | omg | 17:58 |
| pragmaticenigma | markie--: it is possible mounting the drive with fstab might prevent that, but I have my doubts | 18:00 |
| blackflow | pragmaticenigma: markie--: windows? hdparm won't suffice? | 18:00 |
| markie-- | yea, the light comes on during plug in, then after a whle it flashes then goes off | 18:01 |
| mancman3 | markie--: is it a PSU issue ? | 18:02 |
| markie-- | shouldn't it just stay on when it's being written to though | 18:02 |
| texla | Ubuntu 16.04>unity Want to move file from /home/ray/Documents...to 47 gb volume need how to!! | 18:03 |
| ioria | mitic, sy, was requested elsewhere ; how you going ? | 18:03 |
| === Trystam is now known as Tristam | ||
| nacc | texla: is your 47gb volume mounted? just use nautilus and drag and drop? | 18:04 |
| markie-- | i plugged in the laptop charger | 18:05 |
| markie-- | let see | 18:05 |
| texla | nacc Thanks for the info | 18:05 |
| mancman3 | oh a laptop! | 18:05 |
| pragmaticenigma | markie--: It's possible it has a short timeout... also, is it being powered by it's own power source or from the USB? | 18:07 |
| markie-- | YES! GOT IT | 18:08 |
| markie-- | ok had to leave mounted window open for transmission recognize it and had to plug charger in | 18:09 |
| markie-- | usb powered, it;s on a lenovo ideapad | 18:10 |
| markie-- | hd is a toshiba 1tb | 18:10 |
| pragmaticenigma | markie--: The USB port isn't providing enough power to sustain that harddrive. Or the laptop in an effort to concerve battery power is shutting off power feed to the USB device | 18:11 |
| mancman3 | ^ | 18:11 |
| markie-- | pragmaticenigma: yup | 18:11 |
| markie-- | damn it | 18:14 |
| markie-- | it happened again with an input /output error | 18:14 |
| markie-- | status light is still on | 18:15 |
| ioria | markie--, dmesg | tail | 18:15 |
| pragmaticenigma | markie--: and paste the output to paste.ubuntu.com | 18:16 |
| markie-- | https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/M6fytNcSdP/ | 18:17 |
| ioria | markie--, the disk is partitioned ? | 18:18 |
| markie-- | no? | 18:19 |
| ioria | markie--, uname -r | 18:20 |
| markie-- | the hd also went off again even though charger is in | 18:20 |
| ioria | markie--, what is you kernel ? uname -r | 18:21 |
| markie-- | 4.15.0-20-generic | 18:22 |
| ioria | markie--, do you have a double-usb cable , by any chances? | 18:23 |
| markie-- | nope | 18:24 |
| MyStartx | [n0mad], | 18:24 |
| ioria | markie--, well, i'd plug it in another pc, to test the functionality | 18:25 |
| markie-- | it works on my pc. what ill try is dling a big file to desktop and mv it over to hd and see if it works | 18:26 |
| mancman3 | markie--: u have said for the past half hour it keeps powering off!!! | 18:28 |
| ioria | markie--, so, it's mounted ? | 18:29 |
| mancman3 | markie--: and how are u gonna move a file to a raw drive, as again u said it hasn't been partitioned so it isn't formatted either | 18:29 |
| ioria | markie--, you can check (and paste) ' mount ' | 18:29 |
| markie-- | this sucks | 18:31 |
| mine | hello, how can I purge a snap's data? | 18:31 |
| ioria | mine, i don't use snap , but you remove them (not purge) ; they are contained | 18:33 |
| mine | that doesn't remove their data | 18:33 |
| mine | if i reinstall it retains the data | 18:34 |
| mine | I want to remove the data | 18:34 |
| popeycore | mine: which snap? | 18:34 |
| mine | bitwarden | 18:34 |
| popeycore | if you remove a snap, the data (if in home/user/snap/snapname) the data is removed | 18:34 |
| mine | sure, but it reappears when I install the snap again. I'm still logged in with bitwarden even if I have removed it | 18:35 |
| popeycore | yup, if you snap remove bitwarden, the directory is gone | 18:35 |
| popeycore | interesting | 18:35 |
| mine | and I'm having an issue with launching it through the shortcut | 18:35 |
| mine | I get an error message | 18:35 |
| mine | but if I click the executable in /snap/bitwarden/4/app it launches | 18:36 |
| popeycore | i'd file an issue against the upstream github repo | 18:36 |
| popeycore | ah, dont do that | 18:36 |
| popeycore | you're launching it outside confinement | 18:36 |
| mine | I see | 18:36 |
| popeycore | which will write to your home directory | 18:36 |
| popeycore | and thats why the data is being kept | 18:36 |
| Ascavasaion | I have done a sudo apt update && sudo apt dist-upgrade && sudo apt autoremove and then I did a sudo do-release-upgrade... it says that there is no release found. lsb_release -a gives "Description: Ubuntu 16.04.4 LTS"... I am confused. | 18:36 |
| mine | so I have to delete the files that have been written to /home? | 18:37 |
| popeycore | yeah | 18:37 |
| popeycore | normally you dont have to | 18:37 |
| mine | I will look into it | 18:37 |
| popeycore | Ascavasaion: we don't make LTS to LTS upgrades enabled until the .1 release, so 18.04.1 in July | 18:37 |
| popeycore | Ascavasaion: but you can force the upgrade if you want | 18:37 |
| popeycore | !upgrades | 18:37 |
| ubottu | For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade | 18:37 |
| Ascavasaion | popeycore: sudo d- | 18:38 |
| Ascavasaion | popeycore: sudo do-release-upgrade -d works... should I continue? | 18:38 |
| popeycore | Ascavasaion: yes, if you want to upgrade, that will work | 18:39 |
| Ascavasaion | thank you popeycore | 18:39 |
| popeycore | no problemo | 18:39 |
| mine | ok, so I moved the folder /home/snap/bitwarden to the trash, but it reappeared when I install the snap... am I not supposed to launch snaps through the terminal either? | 18:40 |
| popeycore | hang on. | 18:40 |
| popeycore | when you launch the snap, the /home/foo/snap/bitwarden directory will be created, this is normal | 18:41 |
| popeycore | you can launch the app 3 ways | 18:41 |
| popeycore | 1) type bitwarden in the terminal | 18:41 |
| popeycore | 2) type snap run bitwarden in the terminal | 18:41 |
| popeycore | 3) launch it from the gui, clicking the icon | 18:41 |
| popeycore | however you do that, you'll end up with a bitwarden folder under home/foo/snap and that's normal | 18:41 |
| popeycore | what's the goal mine ? | 18:41 |
| mine | here's the error message I'm getting | 18:42 |
| mine | https://github.com/bitwarden/desktop/issues/89 | 18:42 |
| mine | I'm not sure if it's a bitwarden issue or a snap issue | 18:42 |
| mine | other snaps are working just fine | 18:42 |
| mine | the goal is for it to launch via terminal or the shortcut | 18:42 |
| popeycore | odd, bitwarden launches fine here on 18.04 | 18:43 |
| mine | yeah, it did for me too, but then it suddenly stopped | 18:43 |
| tomreyn | markie--: did you solve this, yet? since i may have a solution about the disk going to atandby (if you really think it does) | 18:44 |
| mine | I'm using some gnome extensions and themes, but that shouldn't effect it...? I'm just thinking about the gtk errors it gives | 18:44 |
| popeycore | those arent errors, most apps give that | 18:44 |
| markie-- | tomreyn: im mving a big file over to it now and it's staying on | 18:44 |
| mine | I see | 18:44 |
| popeycore | mine: i suspect that because you ran it outside of confinement, you have a ~/.config/Bitwarden ? | 18:45 |
| tomreyn | markie--: that's not ananswer to the question i asked, though. | 18:45 |
| mine | I ran it outside of confinement after this issue though, not before | 18:45 |
| mine | but I will check | 18:45 |
| popeycore | sure, there's two issues here | 18:45 |
| popeycore | 1) why it doesn't launch, and 2) why data is retained on uninstall | 18:45 |
| mine | yes, I do have a .config/bitwarden | 18:46 |
| mine | should I delete that? | 18:46 |
| popeycore | if you want to start from scratch, sure | 18:46 |
| mine | ok, thanks | 18:46 |
| popeycore | np | 18:46 |
| markie-- | tomreyn: it failed | 18:47 |
| tomreyn | markie--: what failed? | 18:47 |
| markie-- | tomreyn: the file move | 18:47 |
| markie-- | tomreyn: the mount box thing came up | 18:48 |
| tomreyn | markie--: okay, so it's not an issue about going to sleep, then the solution i had in mind wont help you | 18:48 |
| mine | hmm, I still get the error | 18:48 |
| mine | what about: # Fatal error in ../../v8/src/snapshot/snapshot.h, line 28# Check failed: IsSane(). ? | 18:48 |
| tomreyn | markie--: it's probbaly a communication issue due to a broken cable, connector or drive. | 18:49 |
| popeycore | mine: that doesnt look good, I'd update the github issue. | 18:50 |
| popeycore | you're talking to the dev, he's the best person to debug it :) | 18:50 |
| popeycore | feel free to ping me on the github issue if it turns out to be snap related, I'm popey on github | 18:50 |
| mine | so it's positively a bitwarden issue, not a snap issue? | 18:50 |
| mine | ok, thanks | 18:50 |
| markie-- | tomreyn: ok i just tried a different usb port and the transfer worked | 18:52 |
| mine | is the correct way to delete these files to right click on the folder and remove to trash? Or are the left over files? is there a command I should use? | 18:53 |
| ioria | mine you can use terminal ; if interested : https://github.com/bitwarden/desktop/issues/56 | 18:54 |
| downwardSpiral | I got a question | 18:55 |
| markie-- | tomreyn: ill try transmission again on this new usb port and see | 18:55 |
| rivyn | I'm trying to file a couple package bugs and have created a Launchpad account which seems to let me browse existing bugs, but I don't see a link to create a new bug? | 18:55 |
| downwardSpiral | how do i change my WM without changeing my DE | 18:55 |
| rivyn | Where is the link to report a new bug? | 18:55 |
| ioria | downwardSpiral, wmctrl can do that | 18:56 |

| stairmast0r | hey guys, weird question, but i need to figure out what this 732 MB (windows units) partition is on my drive, from windows | 19:26 |
| stairmast0r | there's a 512 MB EFI partition, 732 MB unknown, and then the LUKS encrypted main partition | 19:26 |
| leftyfb | stairmast0r: that's a ##windows question | 19:27 |
| stairmast0r | wondering if it's safe to delete the 732 MB on this dual-boot work laptop before turning it in | 19:27 |
| xamithan | Maybe you should ask the windows channel | 19:27 |
| leftyfb | stairmast0r: since Ubuntu didn't put it there | 19:27 |
| leftyfb | and you even said "from Windows" | 19:27 |
| xamithan | It is probably some OEM recovery thing though | 19:27 |
| stairmast0r | leftyfb: i need to figure out what it is while booted into windows, i mean | 19:27 |
| leftyfb | stairmast0r: then again, that question has no business in #ubuntu | 19:28 |
| stairmast0r | it's sandwiched between EFI and the main ubuntu partition. i installed windows on its own partition at the end of the disk | 19:28 |
| leftyfb | stairmast0r: please go to ##windows for help with that. It's not related to Ubuntu in any way. | 19:28 |
| stairmast0r | dude | 19:29 |
| stairmast0r | i came here hoping someone familiar with ubuntu could identify it as a standard partition that's created during ubuntu installation, or not | 19:29 |
| leftyfb | it's not | 19:29 |
| stairmast0r | thank you | 19:29 |
| leftyfb | oh, wait | 19:30 |
| nacc | although if you're turning in a work laptop, why wouldn't you just shred the whole disk? | 19:30 |
| leftyfb | I misread your warning | 19:30 |
| nacc | why does it matter where it came from | 19:30 |
| leftyfb | stairmast0r: Why not boot an Ubuntu USB/CD and see what's on the partition? | 19:31 |
| tomreyn | it could be /boot, right? | 19:31 |
| nacc | I feel like stairmast0r is not telling us something | 19:31 |
| leftyfb | could be, but if he's asking, I doubt it | 19:31 |
| nacc | they said this was a work machine that is being returned | 19:31 |
| nacc | wipe the disk, why do you need any data on it? | 19:31 |
| stairmast0r | nacc: they're specifically asking for it back intact, for some reason | 19:31 |
| rymate1234 | so on ubuntu, how do I make the boot not wait 5 minutes to raise the network interfaces | 19:31 |
| nacc | stairmast0r: intact as to what? | 19:31 |
| nacc | stairmast0r: it came as a dual boot? | 19:31 |
| matjam | stairmast0r: its probably the windows rescue partition | 19:31 |
| stairmast0r | however i haven't used ubuntu on it in quite a while, so i'm wiping that out before giving it back. | 19:31 |
| nacc | stairmast0r: why not just reinstall windows on the whole disk like it was when you first got it? | 19:32 |
| leftyfb | rymate1234: https://askubuntu.com/questions/773973/ubuntu-16-04-system-boot-waits-saying-raise-network-interfaces | 19:33 |
| leftyfb | rymate1234: I searched google for "ubuntu network wait 5 minutes" | 19:33 |
| stairmast0r | sigh | 19:33 |
| rymate1234 | maybe I should've tried that | 19:33 |
| matjam | stairmast0r: guarantee you its not related to ubuntu. | 19:33 |
| stairmast0r | alright well it's gone now | 19:33 |
| stairmast0r | thanks for your help, whoever actually helped | 19:33 |
| leftyfb | and this is why we do this :) | 19:34 |
| matjam | bask in the glory of the thanks | 19:35 |
| rymate1234 | leftyfb, sorry for lacking common sense today, that worked, thanks! | 19:38 |
| xirg | can sublime-text run on ubuntu server | 19:54 |
| SlidingHorn | xirg: I mean, you'd have to install a GUI, etc, but I don't see why not | 19:56 |
| xirg | o i mean without a gui | 19:56 |
| leftyfb | xirg: sublime-text is a GUI application and has no business on a production server | 19:56 |
| xirg | prob not, right? | 19:56 |
| xirg | yea thats what i thought | 19:56 |
| leftyfb | xirg: no, it's a GUI application | 19:56 |
| SlidingHorn | xirg: it's a GUI application, so no | 19:56 |
| leftyfb | use vi | 19:56 |

| leftyfb | wizwizwizwiz: icloud.com or something like dropbox or google photos | 20:01 |
| leftyfb | wizwizwizwiz: why do you need to? | 20:01 |
| wizwizwizwiz | i need to transfer ssh keys | 20:01 |
| wizwizwizwiz | there's no way in hell im putting my ssh keys on cloud services | 20:01 |
| leftyfb | wizwizwizwiz: copy/paste | 20:01 |
| glitchd | email them lol | 20:01 |
| wizwizwizwiz | copy paste? | 20:01 |
| leftyfb | wizwizwizwiz: email/text/dropbox/pushbullet the ssh key to your phone, copy it and paste it into the application | 20:02 |
| glitchd | wizwizwizwiz, your phone isnt recognized when you plug it into the computer? | 20:02 |
| leftyfb | glitchd: no, and it won't be. Especially not the way he's trying to do | 20:02 |
| glitchd | leftyfb, why would the phone be recognized and mounted when plugged in via usb cable? | 20:03 |
| glitchd | *wouldnt | 20:03 |
| leftyfb | because iOS doesn't work like that | 20:03 |
| matjam | iOS doesn't support browsing its filesystem | 20:04 |
| glitchd | ...when i plug my iphone in, ip pops up on my desktop and i can open it | 20:04 |
| glitchd | there were a few things in had to install to get that to happen tho | 20:04 |
| glitchd | it didnt happen automatically | 20:05 |
| pragmaticenigma | glitchd: please feel free to share :-) it may help out wizwizwizwiz's problem | 20:06 |
| wizwizwizwiz | i also tried transferring photos back and forth from my phone over usb and had no luck | 20:06 |
| * wizwizwizwiz is a moderately experienced linux user | 20:06 | |
| glitchd | pragmaticenigma, well i dont use the iphone regularly, it just an mp3 player for my car | 20:06 |
| wizwizwizwiz | glitchd: what'd you use? | 20:07 |
| wizwizwizwiz | leftyfb: the stuff you are suggesting is ridiculously insecure | 20:07 |
| wizwizwizwiz | leftyfb: i hope you don't do that for any professional work | 20:07 |
| leftyfb | wizwizwizwiz: I've been doing it for years. Feel free to exploit it . | 20:07 |
| wizwizwizwiz | sftp is a possibility | 20:07 |
| glitchd | wizwizwizwiz, it was either thunar, or i installed itunes in a virtual w7 machine, i dont remember exactly, but i do know that my iphone is recognized and mounted when i plug it in to my laptop | 20:08 |
| wizwizwizwiz | i find that vms and usb don't mix well usually | 20:08 |
| leftyfb | glitchd: installing iTunes in VM is in no way the same as saying it "pops up on my desktop" | 20:08 |
| leftyfb | in ubuntu | 20:08 |
| pragmaticenigma | wizwizwizwiz: Is it not possible to find a SSH client for iPhone that is able to generate it's own key pair that you can then transfer to the server?? | 20:09 |
| glitchd | leftyfb, no, its not. | 20:09 |
| leftyfb | pragmaticenigma: it is | 20:09 |
| leftyfb | terminus does it | 20:09 |
| leftyfb | it also allows you to paste in your keys | 20:09 |
| glitchd | leftyfb, it pops up as an icon on my xubuntu desktop when i plug it in. | 20:09 |
| glitchd | leftyfb, without launching the vm | 20:09 |
| glitchd | leftyfb, but like i said, i only use it for music, so i only use itunes with it and thats in the vm | 20:10 |
| leftyfb | glitchd: I have my iphone mount in nautilus when I plug it in. "Contains digital photos" which is empty. You cannot do anything with it. You MIGHT be able to download pictures using Shotwell, but that by no means helps with copying an ssh key into an iOS application | 20:11 |
| glitchd | leftyfb, true enough. | 20:11 |
| leftyfb | pretty sure it's also read-only | 20:12 |
| glitchd | leftyfb, im not by any means an iphone user, it was a 32gb iphone4 that was free and my car has iphone integration, thats the only reason i use it. | 20:12 |
| jnewt | how do i scan long receipts? my scanner is Fujitsu Scansnap iX500, OS is ubuntu 16.04, it cuts off at 1 page on linux, works fine on windows, but just realized simple scan doesn't adjust to the size, it's always expecting 8.5x11 | 20:22 |
| nacc | jnewt: it's up to your scanner to provide that data to simplescan | 20:27 |
| nacc | jnewt: my scanner gives me several pages sizes (Im on 18.04, but it did this with a different scanner on 16.04 as well) | 20:27 |
| nacc | jnewt: fujitsu also appears to provide a driver/app etc | 20:29 |
| jnewt | nacc: my page size is set to automatic, but it doesn't actually adjust to whatever is scanned. none of the pre-sets match what I have. | 20:31 |
| jnewt | when i set to automatic in windows, it crops the pdf to the actual size of whatever is scanned. I guess automatic means something else here? (or it's just broken) | 20:32 |

| stalle | Do I need to give permissions to anything? | 20:42 |
| j-em | Hello everyone - I am using nftables along with its nat capabilities and iptables_nat keeps getting loaded automatically on every boot which breaks my nftables config. What's the recommended way to permanently blacklist a module on Ubuntu 16.04 ? | 20:43 |
| leftyfb | stalle: what do you mean export display? | 20:44 |
| odroid | test | 20:45 |
| tgm4883 | j-em: have you tried https://askubuntu.com/questions/110341/how-to-blacklist-kernel-modules?utm_medium=organic&utm_source=google_rich_qa&utm_campaign=google_rich_qa | 20:45 |
| leftyfb | odroid: failed | 20:45 |

| stalle | leftyfb: I want to use display of a remote server. | 20:45 |
| Guest36017 | i installed ubuntu to 3 different pc. dell n5110, dell xps 9350 and msi ms-16gc. Dell n5110 is ok but dell xps and msi too slow everything is laggy games have fps drops. and i tried fedora 28. all computers are ok no lag and fast. what is your think about this problem | 20:45 |
| leftyfb | j-em: found by searching google for "blacklist iptables module" | 20:46 |
| leftyfb | Guest36017: video drivers | 20:46 |
| leftyfb | stalle: what do you mean exactly> | 20:46 |
| tgm4883 | stalle: to back leftyfb up. I'm not entirely sure what your end goal is either | 20:47 |
| stalle | Ok | 20:47 |
| Guest36017 | dell xps only intel graphic, msi nvidia 765m(driver installed) | 20:48 |
| leftyfb | Guest36017: which version of ubuntu? | 20:49 |

| leftyfb | stalle: nope. That does not explain what you are trying to do. What is your end goal? | 20:50 |
| stalle | I tried that but got permission denied error | 20:50 |
| stalle | 😐 | 20:50 |
| tgm4883 | stalle: you'll need to post the error | 20:50 |
| leftyfb | stalle: what is your end goal? You have a local machine and a remote machine. What do you want to happen? | 20:50 |
| tgm4883 | stalle: that works fine on a standard 18.04 install | 20:50 |
| stalle | No, I have a remote server | 20:51 |
| tgm4883 | leftyfb: using that link, they have a remote host with graphical applications. They want to run the remote hosts graphical applications on the local host | 20:51 |
| leftyfb | tgm4883: I get what the link is doing | 20:51 |
| leftyfb | stalle: are you trying to run a GUI application running on a remote server to display on your local machine? | 20:52 |
| j-em | tgm4883: I did try this, and this is not doing anything. | 20:52 |
| j-em | lsmod still shows iptable_nat being loaded when I reboot. | 20:52 |
| stalle | leftyfb: Yes | 20:52 |
| leftyfb | j-em: did you try the link I gave you? | 20:53 |
| leftyfb | stalle: ssh -X <remote machine> -t "firefox" | 20:53 |
| stalle | tgm4883: I tried that on 16.04. Does it not work on 16.04? | 20:53 |
| leftyfb | stalle: requirements: the remote machine needs to have the application you're trying to run along with the necessary xorg libraries installed | 20:54 |
| leftyfb | tgm4883: not if you're running wayland | 20:54 |
| leftyfb | you need to be running xorg | 20:54 |
| tgm4883 | leftyfb: well why would you want to use wayland ;) | 20:54 |
| j-em | leftyfb: i'm already doing that on every boot | 20:54 |
| leftyfb | wayland doesn't support X forwarding. Amongst a TON of others features (hint: not ready for prime-time) | 20:54 |
| stalle | Yes, I tried xorg | 20:55 |
| leftyfb | stalle: stick with xorg | 20:55 |
| tgm4883 | stalle: it's worked on all the versions I've ever tried it on going back to 7.10 | 20:55 |
| leftyfb | stalle: with xorg and ssh -X , what error are you getting? | 20:55 |
| leftyfb | stalle: hint: paste errors with more than 1 line to paste.ubuntu.com | 20:55 |
| stalle | I deleted the whole setup a while back. I need to set it up again. | 20:55 |
| leftyfb | :/ | 20:56 |
| tgm4883 | ... | 20:56 |
| leftyfb | stalle: please don't ask for support for a "setup" you no longer than access to | 20:56 |
| leftyfb | than/have* | 20:56 |
| tgm4883 | "Let me ask you a question I have no real way to troubleshoot" | 20:56 |

| macro0 | hi | 21:03 |
| HJJHJH | pictures my sister in bikini - https://volafile.org/r/jt77w9w8 | 21:03 |
| Outy | I tested Xubuntu 18.04 and I have a little BUG here: setting acceleration speeds in Mouse and Touchpad works for the touchpad but not for the trackpoint. It doesnt change speeds and its way too sensitive | 21:03 |
| hany_ | hi | 21:04 |
| macro0 | I have a trackpoint as well | 21:04 |
| macro0 | I am going to google it | 21:04 |
| macro0 | maybe you can download a fix | 21:04 |
| Outy | macro0: would be nice =) | 21:05 |
| macro0 | have you tried anything related to something called udev rules? | 21:06 |
| Outy | macro0: it works under 16.04 - i can change settings there and it will be set. but playing with speed settings for trackpoint in 18.04 does nothing | 21:06 |
| Outy | macro0: no not changed anything with udev rules | 21:07 |
| hany_ | how many time to upgrade frrom 13 to 14 | 21:09 |
| hany_ | 5 h | 21:09 |
| tomreyn | hany_: 13 to 14 of what? | 21:10 |
| hany_ | ubunto stoudio | 21:11 |
| hany_ | this tack more time to upgrade | 21:11 |
| hany_ | i in step 3 | 21:12 |
| tomreyn | hany_: are you sure about these version numbers? the current ubuntu tudio release is 18.04, and i don't think there ever were "13" or "14". | 21:12 |
| stalle | leftyfb & tgm4883: it is working now. I probably didn't do something right the last time. | 21:12 |
| hany_ | i in getting new packages | 21:13 |
| tomreyn | hany_: you seem to be upgrading from some release which has been end of life for many years (13.xx where xx is either 04 or 10) to one which will be end of life very soon (14.04). | 21:14 |
| tomreyn | hany_: if this is what you are doing then you'd better backup your data and install a current version. | 21:15 |
| xamithan | An entire year is soon ? | 21:15 |
| stalle | Are you sure that is a complete sentence? | 21:16 |
| tomreyn | xamithan: you're right, it's almost another year of support for some of ubuntu 14.04 lts | 21:16 |
| tgm4883 | xamithan: generally with only a year of support left is when you would start planning your upgrade to the next version | 21:16 |
| tgm4883 | It's probably worth noting however that ubuntu studio 14.04 probably doesn't have 5 years of support | 21:17 |
| stalle | Why? | 21:17 |
| tomreyn | you can run ubuntu-support-status on a full ypatched system to find out about your support status | 21:18 |
| tgm4883 | Yea, Ubuntu Studio 14.04 is already out of support as well | 21:18 |
| stalle | low number of users? | 21:18 |
| tgm4883 | stalle: because the creators of it only wanted to support it for X time and that time has passed | 21:19 |
| xamithan | Because canonical doesn't support it | 21:19 |
| stalle | I thought even number versions have 5 years of support | 21:20 |
| SlidingHorn | Ubuntu Studio currently has a lack of manpower, which has necessitated a shorter support cycle for the time being. We are working to remedy that in upcoming releases | 21:20 |
| tgm4883 | stalle: no, LTS releases of Ubuntu have 5 years of support. Flavors support length differs | 21:21 |
| labh | hello | 21:21 |
| stalle | I see | 21:22 |
| labh | why window managers use so much CPU? | 21:22 |
| labh | gnome, kde etc. | 21:22 |
| tgm4883 | stalle: that's true for all flavors. Even Kubuntu only offers 3 years support | 21:22 |
| labh | is a curse... | 21:22 |
| Outy | macro0: found anything ? | 21:22 |
| hany_ | fetching file 100 of 2294 at 30.6 kb/s please kill me . | 21:23 |
| tgm4883 | hany_: one of the many reasons you should install an up to date version from scratch after backing up your data | 21:23 |
| Outy | hany_: analoge modem ;o) ? | 21:23 |
| nacc | labh: it depends on your system and usage. | 21:24 |
| hany_ | i in egypt | 21:24 |
| labh | a window manager is design to help the user and protect the CPU | 21:25 |
| labh | not the opposite | 21:25 |
| hany_ | internt old man | 21:25 |
| tgm4883 | labh: is there a support question in there or did you come here to complain? | 21:26 |
| labh | i want to know why? | 21:26 |
| tgm4883 | labh: well you'll need to provide some details | 21:26 |
| tgm4883 | !details | 21:26 |
| ubottu | Please elaborate; your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information; for example, we might need errors, steps, relevant configuration files, Ubuntu version, and hardware information. Use a !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel. | 21:26 |
| macro0 | Outy, try changing the values in /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/speed | 21:27 |
| tomreyn | hany_: if you're in north africa, there's https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+mirror/ubuntu.mirror.tn-archive2 - in case you're currently using mirror servers which are further away from you. | 21:27 |
| macro0 | to something like w /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/speed - - - - 255 | 21:28 |
| macro0 | because I think in ubuntu it doesnt distinguish sensitivity from speed under the mouse& touchpad settings | 21:29 |
| nacc | labh: in my experience, the window manager does not consume cpu excessively. | 21:29 |
| macro0 | and then you can run this apparently to enforce the command $ sudo systemd-tmpfiles --prefix=/sys --create | 21:30 |
| nacc | labh: so, as tgm4883 said, you need to actually provide details instead of vague comments. | 21:30 |
| Outy | macro0: thanks i'll have a look into it | 21:30 |
| macro0 | let me know | 21:30 |
| macro0 | I am about to install ubuntu later this evening on my x201 | 21:30 |
| macro0 | which laptop do you have | 21:30 |
| labh | iḿ using openbox with tint2 and conky | 21:31 |
| Outy | macro0: X201 =9 | 21:31 |
| Outy | macro0: X201 =) | 21:31 |
| labh | is the only efficient iǘe found | 21:32 |
| labh | i' ve | 21:32 |
| macro0 | coincidence Outy | 21:32 |
| nacc | labh: is it an older laptop, maybe a weaker graphics card? | 21:32 |
| Edisto | is there a common problem on gpu crashing after 18.04 upgrade? | 21:32 |
| labh | nacc: i5 8GB | 21:32 |
| nacc | Edisto: upgrade from what? | 21:33 |
| Edisto | 17.10 | 21:33 |
| Edisto | gnome | 21:33 |
| nacc | Edisto: using nvidia? | 21:33 |
| Edisto | amd | 21:33 |
| Edisto | r9 fury | 21:33 |
| nacc | Edisto: or what do you mean by 'gpu crashing' ? | 21:33 |
| labh | nacc: intel hd4000 | 21:33 |
| Edisto | arifacts on screen then it goes in a loop of the startup prompts | 21:33 |
| Outy | macro0: yeahh ^^ be aware: hdaps not working right now under 18.04, and trackpoint speed buggy | 21:33 |
| nacc | Edisto: so you never get to the login screen? | 21:34 |
| Edisto | no | 21:34 |
| nacc | Edisto: I don't believe that is a 'common' experience. Anything obvious in your logs (I'd check /var/log/syslog at least) | 21:34 |
| Outy | macro0: i have: /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio0 and serio1 but no speed inside this folders | 21:35 |
| Edisto | nacc: hmmm... trying to avoid reinstall. I can set to nomodeset then try to get in but after that what should I tinker with | 21:35 |
| luxio | does anyone else think that when the "Show Applications" button is pressed (bottom left), the animation is laggy? | 21:35 |
| luxio | (GNOME, 18.04) | 21:36 |
| nacc | Edisto: you can't even get to a tty now? (ctrl+alt+f3) | 21:36 |
| nacc | luxio: it's fine here | 21:36 |
| Edisto | nacc: didn't try f3 but f2 loops back into f1 with the arifact crash | 21:37 |
| luxio | is there a way to disable the animation | 21:37 |
| nacc | Edisto: try any of them, don't just give up after the first one :) | 21:37 |
| nacc | Edisto: s/any/all/ | 21:37 |
| nacc | Edisto: that is, in 18.04, i think tty1 is gdm, tty2 is the first user session and then tty3 and on are running normal gettys | 21:37 |
| matjam | Edisto: are you using the binary driver? | 21:37 |
| luxio | or at least speed it up? it takes about a second for that animation to complete which is too much when i just want to start an application | 21:38 |
| Edisto | whatever driver comes default. I just freshly updated from 17.10 | 21:38 |
| nacc | luxio: probably with the appropriate tweak tool? | 21:38 |
| luxio | oh, found it. gnome tweak tool > appearance > animations > off | 21:39 |
| matjam | Edisto: give this a try https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/AMD | 21:40 |
| luxio | feels much faster now | 21:40 |
| matjam | Edisto: the instructions from section 5.1 | 21:40 |
| matjam | Edisto: thats a pretty new card, right? | 21:40 |
| Edisto | matjam: yeah 2 years old | 21:40 |
| nacc | luxio: cool | 21:41 |
| victorsch | hey | 21:41 |
| matjam | Edisto: It can take a while for the open source drivers to catch up, so I'd give the vendor's drivers a try | 21:41 |
| matjam | Edisto: this is a desktop system right? | 21:41 |
| matjam | of course, its an r9 | 21:41 |

| Edisto | okie I'll be back one way or another on linux lol | 21:43 |
| Edisto | rebooting =D | 21:43 |

| Outy | test | 21:45 |
| matjam | Outy: success | 21:45 |
| Outy | matjam: what success =) ? | 21:46 |
| matjam | Outy: you tested | 21:46 |
| Outy | matjam: yes you're right - ther was a big irc lag here on my side | 21:46 |
| macro0 | Outy, I read from another 18.04 user that you must have xserver-xorg-input-synaptics | 21:48 |
| macro0 | he writes "On my Thinkpad W520 I simply go System Manager/ Hardware/ HID??/ Mouse/ Advanced and select a different acceleration. | 21:48 |
| macro0 | 1x is like molasses, 10x is quite acceptable and 20 is the max." | 21:48 |
| Outy | macro0: is that a path or program | 21:49 |
| aLeSD | hi all | 21:50 |
| aLeSD | I have a problem with my keyboard | 21:51 |
| Outy | macro0: found that website the info is on. reading it right niw | 21:51 |
| macro0 | yeah | 21:51 |
| macro0 | https://www.kubuntuforums.net/showthread.php/68226-ThinkPad-trackpoint-adjust-speed-and-sensitivity | 21:51 |
| aLeSD | I am sp layout but when I press < button I get \ | 21:51 |
| macro0 | https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics | 21:52 |
| aLeSD | if I show the keyboard layout it is right | 21:52 |
| aLeSD | it happen only with that key | 21:52 |
| Outy | macro0: found a very good way: synclient | 21:55 |
| Outy | synclient - commandline utility to query and modify Synaptics driver options. | 21:55 |
| macro0 | do u have a link | 21:56 |
| macro0 | Outy, | 21:56 |
| macro0 | i am downloading it now | 21:56 |
| Outy | macro0: synclient is already installed by default. but now i see i can only change values for the touchpad, not trackpoint | 21:57 |
| macro0 | oh | 21:57 |
| macro0 | Outy, so your trackpoint is still sensitive | 21:58 |
| macro0 | ? | 21:58 |
| Edisto | suprisingly not even nomodeset worked. It just repeated in a loop turning black then back to the command prompt | 21:59 |
| Outy | macro0: found this: https://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Trackpoint/#Configure-Trackpoint | 22:00 |
| Edisto | i'm guessing something is corrupted or conflicting | 22:00 |
| matjam | Edisto: try "text" | 22:00 |
| matjam | Edisto: maybe "nomodeset text" | 22:00 |
| macro0 | Outy, looks promising | 22:00 |
| Outy | macro0: it is, its a gui for the settings you mentioned earlier... thank you =) | 22:04 |
| Edisto | matjam: trying to figure out what I'm fixing if I get in through the prompt? I'm guessing I should just run ext2fsd and get all my stuff and reinstall | 22:04 |
| macro0 | Outy, wow a gui! I will be using this then | 22:04 |
| macro0 | Outy, thanks for sharing! | 22:04 |
| Outy | i'll try it right now.. will logout / login | 22:06 |
| matjam | Edisto: well maybe do a fresh install would rule out anything that got messed up in the upgrade | 22:06 |
| matjam | Edisto: maybe boot from the install image for 18.04 | 22:06 |
| matjam | Edisto: that will tell you if there's any hardware issue, and then you can do the fsck from there and then backup your stuff, do a reinstall | 22:07 |
| aLeSD | why the scroll lock is always on ? | 22:11 |
| aLeSD | and I can't unset it ? | 22:11 |
| Edisto | matjam: yeah... looks like I have no choice I can't see my files from windows using any program >.< | 22:12 |
| Outy | macro0: had no effect in 16.04 i'll try it tomorrow on 18.04 - i'll go to bed now. see you macro0 - wish you good luck with 18.04 on your x201 (best laptop ever made) =) | 22:12 |
| matjam | Edisto: well, boot off a usb stick, I think its the safest course | 22:12 |
| luxio | I have a problem on 18.04. When I'm typing, half of the time it's smooth, but randomly it just freezes for about a half of a second. Anyone know why I'm experiencing this? | 22:20 |
| tomreyn | luxio: no, but take a look at the output of "dmesg -T | tail" as well as "tail /var/log/Xorg.0.log" (or post it to a pastebin) | 22:22 |
| tomreyn | luxio: is this on any program, or just some? | 22:22 |
| luxio | http://termbin.com/cn9v | 22:22 |
| luxio | tail: cannot open '/var/log/Xorg.0.log' for reading: No such file or directory | 22:23 |
| luxio | tomreyn: I've noticed it on both HexChat and GNOME Terminal. | 22:23 |
| tomreyn | luxio: take a look at all of dmesg - if it keeps spilling these lines many times per secondthen this can be why. | 22:23 |
| luxio | wait a sec | 22:24 |
| luxio | I think it happens when I press apostrophe? | 22:24 |
| luxio | or question mark? | 22:24 |
| tomreyn | i don't know. is this on wayland, since you don't have /var/log/Xorg.0.log? | 22:24 |
| luxio | xorg | 22:24 |
| tomreyn | weird, then you should have the log. | 22:24 |
| luxio | how do I double check? | 22:25 |
| luxio | also yeah I' | 22:25 |
| luxio | I've noticed that it freezes when pressing question mark or apostrophe | 22:25 |
| tomreyn | is there ayn similar log? ls /var/log/Xorg.*.log | 22:25 |
| luxio | no | 22:25 |
| tomreyn | which ubuntu release is this? | 22:25 |
| tomreyn | lsb_releas -ds | 22:25 |
| tomreyn | lsb_release -ds | 22:25 |
| luxio | ubuntu@desktop:~/Downloads$ locate Xorg.0.log | 22:25 |
| luxio | /home/ubuntu/.local/share/xorg/Xorg.0.log | 22:25 |
| luxio | Ubuntu 18.04 LTS | 22:26 |
| tomreyn | did you build X yourself? | 22:26 |
| luxio | no | 22:26 |
| tomreyn | hmm then i guess the log location must have changed in 18.04 | 22:26 |
| luxio | here's the xorg log: http://termbin.com/qwvl | 22:26 |
| luxio | or the tail | 22:27 |
| tomreyn | what about dmesg, does it keep adding those entries? | 22:27 |
| luxio | yeah it does | 22:27 |
| luxio | it also happens when I press comma | 22:28 |
| luxio | so comma, question mark, apostrophe | 22:28 |
| wtr300 | hola, tengo un problema con tor, alguien me puede ayudar? | 22:28 |
| tomreyn | did you install gnome-system-omonitor from a snap? | 22:28 |
| luxio | !es | wtr300 | 22:28 |
| ubottu | wtr300: En la mayoría de los canales de Ubuntu, se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español entre al canal #ubuntu-es; escriba " /join #ubuntu-es " (sin comillas) y presione intro. | 22:28 |
| wtr300 | gracias | 22:28 |
| luxio | tomreyn: I don't think I did | 22:28 |
| tomreyn | is the system full ypatched? | 22:29 |
| luxio | There's a "gnome-system-monitor" directory in ~/snap | 22:29 |
| luxio | so it may be a snap | 22:29 |
| tomreyn | yes it is, and it's installed by default, i just leaqrnt | 22:30 |
| tomreyn | so, fully patched? | 22:30 |
| luxio | not sure, how do I check? | 22:31 |
| tomreyn | sudo apt update && sudo apt dist-upgrade | 22:31 |
| luxio | running that updated some packages | 22:32 |
| tomreyn | such as? | 22:32 |
| luxio | The following packages will be upgraded: | 22:32 |
| luxio | curl firefox firefox-locale-en gnome-initial-setup gnome-keyring | 22:32 |
| luxio | gnome-keyring-pkcs11 libcurl3-gnutls libcurl4 libpam-gnome-keyring | 22:32 |
| luxio | python3-software-properties snapd software-properties-common | 22:32 |
| luxio | software-properties-gtk | 22:32 |
| tomreyn | okay, maybe the snapd patch fixes it | 22:33 |
| luxio | should i reboot? | 22:33 |
| tomreyn | logout + login may suffice, but rebooting would ensure we know | 22:33 |
| luxio | ok. brb then | 22:33 |
| tomreyn | ok | 22:34 |
| luxio | pressing apostrophe, comma, question mark still lags | 22:34 |
| luxio | period too | 22:35 |
| luxio | and tick | 22:35 |
| tomreyn | luxio: whats your hardware? | 22:36 |
| tomreyn | are you saying this only happens on 18.04? did you try something else? | 22:36 |
| tomreyn | and does it happen on a live cd? | 22:36 |
| luxio | GTX 750Ti, Pentium G4560, SanDisk SSD | 22:36 |
| luxio | haven't tried livecd or other versions | 22:37 |
| tomreyn | from what i haerd there can be problems with nvidia on 18.04, also with X. i don't know the details, though. | 22:38 |
| tomreyn | luxio: "glxinfo -B" would show you the current state of graphics acceleration | 22:38 |
| tomreyn | (this is part of mesa-utils) | 22:39 |

| gartral | luxio: proprietary or nuevou? also did you upgrade or clean install? | 22:41 |
| luxio | gartral: clean install | 22:41 |
| luxio | i think nouveau | 22:41 |
| luxio | OpenGL vendor string: nouveau | 22:41 |
| luxio | OpenGL renderer string: NV117 | 22:41 |
| gartral | try the proprietary drivers | 22:41 |
| luxio | ok how do I do that? | 22:41 |
| gartral | !nvidia | 22:42 |
| ubottu | For nvidia and matrox graphics cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto . For AMD/ATI graphics cards, see « /msg ubottu ati » and « /msg ubottu fglrxmissing » | 22:42 |
| luxio | ty | 22:42 |
| luxio | "Usually you will see a notification and/or an icon in the top panel, reminding you that restricted drivers are available." | 22:43 |
| luxio | "By clicking the icon you will be taken to a dialog where you can choose which version you want to install, choose the recommended driver. " | 22:43 |
| luxio | I don't get that notification | 22:43 |
| luxio | I think this article is outdated, that looks like Unity. | 22:43 |
| tomreyn | luxio: click on the bottm left icon, then type "drivers" and click on the "software & updates" icon | 22:47 |
| tomreyn | then on ther "additional drivers" tab | 22:47 |
| luxio | ok I'm on proprietary drivers now | 22:49 |
| luxio | same problem | 22:50 |
| tomreyn | luxio: try some live cd's, maybe a different OS, to rule out it's the hardware. | 22:55 |
| tomreyn | you can also post all of "dmesg" after a fresh boot. | 22:56 |
| tomreyn | and consider upgrading the bios / uefi | 22:57 |
| tomreyn | luxio: i'll have to leave it there, good luck. | 23:01 |
| luxio | dmesg after fresh boot: http://termbin.com/zskp | 23:06 |
| luxio | I tried a livecd. It happens on there. | 23:06 |
| Two_Dogs | luxio: what problem? | 23:09 |
| luxio | When I press comma, period, slash, apostrophe, or tilde (might be more), it lags for about half a second. | 23:11 |
| Two_Dogs | luxio: on live same issue? | 23:12 |
| luxio | yeah | 23:13 |
| hpjchobbes | Is there a reason/configuration that the Ubuntu Software app wouldn't find a package when searching, but it's found using apt-get? | 23:13 |
| Two_Dogs | luxio: your keyboard sucks | 23:13 |
| luxio | i paid $115 for this keyboard | 23:14 |
| Two_Dogs | get your money back luxio | 23:14 |
| Two_Dogs | hpjchobbes: what package? | 23:15 |
| hpjchobbes | kdbg | 23:15 |
| Two_Dogs | hpjchobbes: that has long name? | 23:15 |
| hpjchobbes | Not sure what you mean by long name? | 23:16 |
| hpjchobbes | It's a graphical front end for the GNU Debugger | 23:16 |
| luxio | Two_Dogs: I've found the problem. It's the "n-key rollover" switch on the keyboard. | 23:17 |
| luxio | When it's toggled on, I get the problem. | 23:17 |
| Two_Dogs | hpjchobbes: tried to search for 'graphical front end for the GNU Debugger'? | 23:17 |
| Two_Dogs | luxio: dont do that any more | 23:17 |
| Two_Dogs | hpjchobbes: perhaps the fancy software provider filters? | 23:18 |
| hpjchobbes | Two_Dogs: I think that must be it. Nothing standing out to me, though. I guess I'll just stick with the terminal | 23:24 |
| Two_Dogs | hpjchobbes: or synaptic gui, should see same results as cli | 23:24 |
| hpjchobbes | Installed synaptic and it's able to find it | 23:28 |
| RoadRunner | Pulse Audio doesn't detect the HDMI output on the video card | 23:29 |
| RoadRunner | to be exact, detects it only intermittently if mirroring to tv | 23:31 |
| RoadRunner | that's under Xubuntu 18.04; card PowerColor Radeon HD 5770 | 23:33 |
| Two_Dogs | RoadRunner: what graphics driver? | 23:42 |
| RoadRunner | Two_Dogs: open source, the one installed by os | 23:43 |
| RoadRunner | the full card "name": PowerColor PCS+ AX5770 1GBD5-PPG Radeon HD 5770 | 23:44 |
| Two_Dogs | RoadRunner: archwiki has wiki on amd/radeon hdmi audio | 23:44 |
| RoadRunner | I was wondering if its a bug with Pulse Audio, Radeon driver or card's firmware? I guess you are saying its likely the open source Radeon driver? | 23:45 |
| RoadRunner | Two_Dogs: don't suppose you have a link? | 23:46 |
| Two_Dogs | RoadRunner archwiki amd/radeon hdmi audio https://git.io/vppVt | 23:47 |
| lapaga | RoadRunner, do you have pavucontrol installed? | 23:50 |
| RoadRunner | lapaga: don't even know what that is :) | 23:51 |
| RoadRunner | lapaga: I take it is not installed with the default 18.04 install? | 23:52 |
| Two_Dogs | RoadRunner: pavuvcontrol is the go to tool/app for pulseaudio config | 23:52 |
| lapaga | sudo apt install pavucontrol | 23:52 |
| SlidingHorn | RoadRunner: apt policy pavucontrol | 23:52 |
| SlidingHorn | RoadRunner: to clarify, lapaga's command will install - mine was just to see if it was installed | 23:53 |
| RoadRunner | give me a few mins to jump comps and try it | 23:53 |
| RoadRunner | Two_Dogs: I am a slow reader, your link above is recommending this course of action, I presume? | 23:54 |
| Two_Dogs | RoadRunner: i dont know if archwiki mentions pavucontrol, arch gets more into the nuts and bolts, i would say having 'pavucontrol' is a good thing, i prefer it to any other method of controlling pulseaudio server | 23:55 |
| RoadRunner | so this is a well known issue then? | 23:56 |
| Two_Dogs | RoadRunner: well known fact, radeon driver and hdmi audio dont play well | 23:57 |
| RoadRunner | Two_Dogs: but pavu has been known to fix it? | 23:57 |
| lapaga | RoadRunner, just install it and see...you have nothing to lose | 23:58 |
| Two_Dogs | RoadRunner: not sure, i dont have amd to plink on, if i saw in pavucontrol a configuration profile specific to amd/amdgpu/radeon that would go a long way to fixing issue though | 23:58 |
| RoadRunner | will do, thank you ; just give some time to get it fugured out :) | 23:59 |
