[00:27] Hello, where can i found a mounted disk in linux? [00:30] akuhcap: ' sudo parted -l ' ?? [00:32] Bashing-om: Yeah ive got that its on /dev/sdb [00:33] In my old linux distro, the files were mounted in '/media/usb0/ [00:33] akuhcap: that "/media/usb0/" indicates an external source . [00:35] Bashing-om: i know, in my new distro though, it doesn't show those directories [00:37] akuhcap: What are you doing, and what do you expect to happen ? [00:38] oerheks, perhaps I should archive them for later use ? [00:39] Like this one https://archive.fo/Zgz1q [00:40] akuhcap: Simply "mount" would show it all. [01:11] where is XRDP channel? [01:15] i used testdisk's deeper search to locate an overwritten partition, but then accidentally backed too far out of a menu and now i'm no longer in the deeper search. can i use the logs to finish the task, or do i need to start a several-hour deeper search again? [01:19] where do you access a crash log for operating system freezing? [01:31] matjam, worked it out. mega thanks! [01:31] ie. chmod -R a+rwx,o-rwx /data/ [01:31] setfacl -d -m g::rwx /data/ [01:31] did the trick perfectly [01:59] Trying to install 18.04 from DVD, when I selected Install Ubuntu from the menu, the DVD spins, stops with a black screen and then proceeds to boot into a Live session. Any idea why I can't just install? [01:59] hello, how can I change my 'preferred' desktop resolution in 18.04? It keeps defaulting to 4k, I need 2560x1440 [02:09] Ghost help me [02:10] gillaGal: the only thing i can think of is a bad download (bit or two wrong), did you md5sum/checksum validate it? [02:10] yo #ubuntu [02:10] does anyone know if anyone mails out free linux CDs anymore? [02:12] guiver_d, I've downloaded the image 3 times now.

[02:24] MichaelH: Maybe as ' systemctl status NetworkManager [02:25] Thanks, that kinda worked : it showed me some information but not what I want. I need to check the IP address & DNS nameservers used [02:26] MichaelH: ' ip route list ' . [02:27] gillaGal: ignore if you're familiar with this, but https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM (it includes info on non-Ubuntu too) [02:32] ip rout list returns https://gist.github.com/MichaelHabib/c8d083c4b90d3f5a4514d629511a323b [02:33] I used the network manager to update the DNS nameservers then disabled & reenabled the the connection. So I need to check if the new setting have been applied. [02:37] MichaelH: nameservers are in ' cat /etc/resolv.conf ' . [02:41] How do I disable thumbnail caching?

[03:37] yello [03:37] Installing Ubuntu in UEFI mode seems like wasted space [03:37] MichaelH, [03:37] my hubby has a new hard drive that he's put ubuntu 18.04 on. his data seems to be in different places than he expected. Computer = Empty 255 MG Drive - grub and some stuff 2.0 TB Volume everything .. and it's not in the traditional Ubuntu places.

[03:40] *boot [03:40] lotuspsychje, single [03:41] GillaGal: then you need to disable secureboot & fastboot, after install ubuntu single [03:41] MichaelH, he had 16.04 he was expecting the data to be in the same places (i think) [03:41] lol GillaGal I feel soo good when others have typos too, so I dont feel doing that alone :) [03:41] how do i set permissions so postfix can read a map file [03:41] Seems I should have installed using legacy and kept the 500MB [03:41] postfix/virtual[5384]: warning: pgsql:/etc/postfix/pgsql/mailbox.cf is unavailable. open /etc/postfix/pgsql/mailbox.cf: Permission denied [03:42] lotuspsychje, ubuntu single? [03:42] GillaGal: yes ubuntu single boot [03:43] lotuspsychje, Isn't it simply a matter of selecting UEFI vs Legacy install. [03:43] UEFI will create the /boot/efi.... legacy won't. [03:44] GillaGal: yes, it depends all what you wanna do, for example some machines with dualboot need some tweaking around with efi === Guest83864 is now known as icct-hedral [03:45] lotuspsychje, right. But as this is just Ubuntu using the entire drive. legacy seems the way to go. [03:45] GillaGal: yes, thats what i said, disable secureboot & fastboot :p [03:46] lotuspsychje, can fastboot be enabled after installation? [03:47] GillaGal: i would not reccomend changing values after an install, better choose wise before the setup [03:48] How do I disable thumbnail caching?

[07:29] 16.10 isn't in the list of https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades [07:31] amosbird: That just means there aren't version-specific upgrades for you.

I posted this a few hours ago on askubuntu. I have a strong suspicion that something is up with the nvidia drivers on my system. But I don't know what my next diagnostic steps should be: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1040002/after-update-to-18-04-applications-constantly-freeze [10:53] bobdobbs, have you asked NVIDIA? [10:54] Younder: I didn't think about checking nvidia support channels specifically. So no. [10:54] after all canoical has no control over the code they write [10:54] true [10:55] However, I figured that people within the ubuntu community might have encountered the issue ahead of me. [10:55] But yeah, I'll see what support there is for ubuntu within the nvidia community [10:57] oh wait. before I do that I should probably ask: how do I know if the drivers for my nvidia card are actually distributed by nvidia, and not by ubuntu dev? [10:57] I use NVIDIA, but have chosen to wait a little with the upgrade to 18.04 upgrade 1 appears, give the driver supporters a bit of a chance to catch up. (in july) [10:58] I'm using nvidia on 18.04 without any real issues, at least, portal 2 works - that's the only game ive tried. [10:58] sounds like a wise choice Younder [11:00] hey [11:00] i have dotnet application and i want to deamonize it [11:01] how can i do that? [11:04] im on ubuntu brainwash... i started to remember used to use rufus [11:05] hey all, how can i enable promiscous mode on my lxcbr0 device permanantly? [11:05] so after a reboot it dosent get unset [11:05] i can see ubuntu in boot manager even after removing it [11:07] bobdobbs, anyhow the new drivers mostly involve support for the Volta technology. You might try an loder driver. [11:07] ^older [11:09] hey, my desktop files aren't working! when I click them, they ask me if I want to run it in terminal [11:10] Younder: how would I go about switching to a older driver? [11:11] ufei vs leagacy which is best for a new laptop ? [11:13] Personally, I'd stick with legacy unless your main disk is >2TB [11:15] guest uefi is usually best if you're dual booting with Windows , otherwise legacy should work [11:17] bobdobbs, In the old days I would just dowload the old driver from the cite and install it. Today you usually get their apt repository and and update from there. The downside is, of course, that it only works until the next update arrives. I would gambe that they have fixed it by then, and to be sure follow up with an error report to nvidia [11:18] Younder: if it's a common issue (and I wouldn't suspect my encounter with it to be particularly novel) then yeah, I'd expect an update soon [11:19] But I'm unfamilair with the landscape and the tooling. So I'm still trying to figure out which driver I actually have and who the vendor is. I'm also looking around the nvidia forum [11:24] bobdobbs, fot driver in use run this: lspci -nnk | grep -i vga -A3 | grep 'in use' , include the quotes [11:25] for [11:27] !ping [11:27] pong! [11:28] fishcooker: https://tutorials.ubuntu.com/tutorial/tutorial-create-a-usb-stick-on-ubuntu [11:28] Hey EriC^^ [11:28] hey BluesKaj === ceiba_ is now known as hellyeah [11:30] Hey guys, I just received a regular Dell XPS from our IT team, on which they installed Ubuntu themselves (so not the developer edition). Firstly: it boots VERY slow (slower then my 6yr old laptop) and they installed 17.10 which they upgraded. I'd prefer to reinstall myself.. anyone knows if there are any particular problem for that with this device? Our IT team spoke of some harddrive settings which were [11:30] needed to make it work .. [11:30] bobdobbs, or this glxinfo | grep OpenGL , look for version string [11:30] XB23: create a systemd service, or just use rc.local === hellyeah is now known as spinningCat [11:33] BluesKaj: thanks [11:43] yo [11:43] anyone around? [11:44] screen lock enabled however does not start. thoughts on how to debug / cause / fix? [11:48] hanasaki, what you mean does not start ? [11:48] x""systemd or supersord to deamonize app [11:48] ? [12:00] anyone know how to become a member of #hardware (or can tell me if a msata ssd can safely be used in a mini msata port?)
