[07:06] the virtualbox package in the multiverse repo is at 5.2.10 so you should just install virtualbox instead [07:06] oh, hm. maybe i should stay out of this one. [07:06] well yesterday i had problem with mysql and removed it [07:06] since then it doesnt work good [07:07] can i restore ubuntu? [07:07] yesterday i installed xampp and then mysql and then i faced problems [07:07] oh god. uhm alright [07:07] now i cant install anything with that error [07:08] Made a backup of ur sources.list? [07:08] i dont think so [07:08] i think i am gonna re-install ubuntu again [07:08] Alright. Good luck with that one! [07:09] thx [07:10] does xampp already include mysql? do i need to install mysql again? [07:11] Yes. but there are many flavours of maria. it requires some configuration and knowledge :-) Why do you want to install xamp? [07:13] samsonait[m]: for wordpress websites i need xampp [07:14] isnt it necessary? [07:14] also i wanna learn php and mysql [07:16] It is necessary yes. Search for Ubuntu LAMP installation.

[08:39] sonu_nk: sudo apt install --reinstall phpmyadmin [08:42] you said you already tried to reinstall it, though, maybe you took the same approach. [08:43] i am trying sudo apt install --reinstall phpmyadmin tomreyn [08:43] lets c what heppend.. [08:44] Hello all [08:44] Could somebody help me with a ubuntu question, please?

[08:46] error parsing PCC subspaces from PCCT [08:47] Philco: did you do any major changes lately, such as upgrading to a newer ubuntu release or installing packages from third party repositories? [08:47] lvmtad is not active yet, using direct activation [08:47] tomreyn, this error is not allwoing me install any application package, not able to upgrade [08:47] even i cant install other apps to work [08:47] volume group "ubuntu-vg" not found [08:48] cannot process volume group ubuntu-vg [08:48] sonu_nk: i know. please run the dpkg command and report its output. [08:48] tomreyn, please send me command.. [08:48] sonu_nk: what's the output of: sudo dpkg --configure phpmyadmin [08:48] tomreyn - no [08:49] I haven't installed anything new or updated OS in a while [08:49] Philco: which ubuntu release is it? [08:50] https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/92b3qQCn93/ tomreyn [08:50] I am not sure ...I think pretty recent [08:51] Sorry, tomreyn - I'm not overly techy [08:51] sonu_nk: backup your phpmyadmin configuration (should be in /etc/phpmyadmin/ ) and purge the package using dpkg: sudo dpkg --purge phpmyadmin [08:51] Philco: that's fine. is it a graphical login you cannot login to? [08:52] Philco: can you press ctrl-alt-f1 and see whether that gives you a textual login, and whether you can type your user name there? [08:52] Yes, tomreyn - but after a short while it changes to a black screen with text. Just the message I typed here and then a line asking me to enter passwrod to decrypt [08:52] hey sir.. how i can't connect to irc.darchoods.net?

[08:54] tomreyn, https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/5vwrTZqB6F/ please see here [08:54] where can i find the "unistd_32.h" file on 18.04? on older versions it was in /usr/include/i386-linux-gnu/unistd_32.h [08:54] tomreyn when I power on it gives the book options screen but will not respond to arrow keys or return key so i have to wait for the countdown ... i have tried to interrupt the start up but cannot [08:54] sonu_nk: uh, can't install, can't remove, not an easy one. ;-) [08:55] sorry wrong path: /usr/include/i386-linux-gnu/asm/unistd_32.h [08:55] sonu_nk: i will need to review those scripts, give me a minute. [08:55] ok [08:56] tomreyn, i get a flicker between the usual login screen and the black screen, but when i release it stays at the graphical login - however it doesnt respond to me typing on the keys [08:57] Philco: try the other F keys, such as ctrl-alt-f2, -f3,... same behaviour? [08:58] will do tomreyn === gms is now known as Guest45550 [08:59] tomreyn -- the f1 and f2 both switch between graphical and black screens ... other f keys have no effect [09:00] Also, I have to hold down the function key to use f1, f2 etx [09:01] Philco: plug in a USB input device so you can figure out what's going on? [09:01] sonu_nk: is the database server running on the same computer? if so, is it actually running? sudo systemctl status mysql [09:01] Philco: but it doesn't stay on the black screne, right? [09:01] *screen [09:02] mouses, you mean like a mouse? [09:02] Philco: yeah or a USB keyboard would probably help a lot [09:02] yes tomreyn, hitting f1 or f2 switches between them -- i can leave it on the black screen or graphic screen [09:03] Philco: okay, and on the black screen you cannot enter your username either? [09:03] Active: active (running) since Sun 2018-06-03 13:30:06 IST; 1h 3min ago [09:03] tomreyn ^ [09:03] tomreyn, that's right ... it doesnt seem to respond to the keyboard text input [09:04] Philco: i assume you rebooted already and it remained the same? [09:04] yes, tomreyn, many times :( [09:04] it was working yesterday [09:05] this started last night [09:05] Philco: do you nkow how to enter bios, or access grub? [09:05] sorry, tomreyn, i dont [09:07] Philco: did you try connecting the keyboard to a different usb port? [09:07] that's if this is a desktop computer and not a laptop [09:07] it is a laptop, tomreyn - i dont have a seperate keyboard [09:08] tomreyn, its a lenovo thinkpad x240 [09:08] tomreyn, mysql running [09:09] Philco: reboot and keep the shift key pressed, this should bring up the "grub" menu. press ctrl-x there and see if you can enter text anywhere, just to see whether the keyboard still works. then reboot again, and hold down shift again and then select "advanced options" (or similar) and select the first recovery boot option and press enter. [09:09] thanks, tomreyn - ill give it a try [09:09] sonu_nk: right, i didnt forget about you. ;) [09:10] sonu_nk: let's try purging dbconfig-common: sudo dpkg --purge dbcopnfig-common [09:10] sonu_nk: let's try purging dbconfig-common: sudo dpkg --purge dbconfig-common [09:10] ^typo fixed [09:12] Philco: once you did all of this, you'll should end up on a pink text graphics menu. at this point please tell us whether the keyboard was working poreviously in grub. [09:12] I can't read red writing on a black background which gnome terminal insists it wants to show me. How can I change this? [09:13] ...and also check whether you can move up/down with cursor keys on this text graphics menu [09:13] sorry tomreyn, i'm getting the grub screen but i cannot type or move the selection bar at all ... i tried ctrl-x also [09:14] actually that is the menu i've been getting on start up [09:14] https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/dSnpfMGFYy/ tomreyn [09:14] Philco: do you have any external devices plugged into the laptop? if so, remove all but those you strictly need and tell me what's still connected. [09:14] the selection bar stays on the first option and i have to wait for the timer to count down before i get the log in box [09:14] tomreyn, there is nothing at all connected [09:17] Philco: hmm this must be some electrical / electronic issue, i think. you could try to see whether you can enter the bios. you'd usually need to press enter or escape followed by one of delete, f2 or alt-f2 during the first screen the computer will draw when you power it on. [09:18] thanks, tomreyn - i will try [09:19] Philco: if you can access bios this way you will have proven that your keyboard still works. if so, you could boot from a different system, such as a usb drive with the ubuntu installer on it, adn see whether the keyboard also workls there. [09:20] Philco: alternatively, my final suggestion would be to unpluc power off the laptop., and remove the battery also (should be possible on a lenovo), then press the power button for 5 seconds, then connect only the power cord but not the battery (if possible) and see whether it powers or and whether you can use the keyboard. [09:20] tomreyn, :) i am looking at you [09:20] https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/dSnpfMGFYy/ tomreyn [09:20] tomreyn -- no luck with that I'm afraid ... i will try to boot from a usb with an istaller on it [09:21] sonu_nk: sudo dpkg --purge dbconfig-mysql; sudo dpkg --purge dbconfig-common [09:21] tomreyn - i will try removing the battery / power and press the power button, then restart with just the power cable [09:23] hi [09:23] any1 active? [09:23] how to make ubuntu 18 use swap partition? not swap file? [09:23] !ask | REAMDE [09:23] REAMDE: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [09:24] tomreyn, https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/r9bHgrkrRy/ :) seems bad luck everytime [09:25] REAMDE: you create a new partitioon (or use existing one), mkswap it to create a swap file system on it, then place this swap partiton in fstab so it will get used / be available. [09:26] ty lemme try [09:27] tomreyn, no luck with the battery removal but i did boot the laptop from an installation usb and got the installation desktop - however the arrow keys aren't working there either [09:28] sonu_nk: right, we're running in circles. let me look for an alternative approach. [09:29] Philco: this is a hardware issue, i'm afraid. if you're lucky you just tossed the laptop somewhere recently and all that happened is that the keyboard connector (to the mainboarD) got loose, then it's an easy fix (for someone into that). either way you'll probbaly need to seek support from a repair shop at this point. [09:30] thank you tomreyn - that is very helpful ... i will find a repair shop. you have been great - much appreciated :) [09:30] tomreyn, should i reinstall it ubuntu ? [09:32] sonu_nk: it could surely fix it, but it's also a somewhat drastic measure. if you don't expect data loss it may be easier, though. [09:32] sonu_nk: the other option would be to investigate more closely what is wrong witht he post removal script of phpmyadmin [09:33] Please is there someone who can help with this https://paste.fedoraproject.org/paste/m-GL0rzr28-jGoJOhZ5cUQ ? [09:33] sonu_nk, i have everything install on my cloud.. always my pc clean and all backup on cloud [09:33] sonu_nk: this script should be located at /var/lib/dpkg/info/phpmyadmin.postrm [09:34] sonu_nk: good job doing proper backups. :) [09:35] sonu_nk: i suspect /var/lib/dpkg/info/phpmyadmin.postrm is a shell script. if so, you can insert a new line after the first line, saying: set -x [09:35] this should provide more output when you run "sudo dpkg --purge phyhmadmin" again [09:36] https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/ffDRH87G8D/ here is the output [09:36] karstenk, How did you get into this situation? [09:37] sonu_nk: right, so if you insert a new line 2 saying just "set -x" that should provide better output. [09:38] jcdutton coming from 16.04 and upgraded to 18.04 [09:38] jcdutton all is working so far, but try to install scribus and running into this [09:40] but the install is broken isn't it [09:41] which? [09:41] You could try installing "upgrade-system" from universe. It sometimes clears these sorts of problems up [09:41] beaver is working for days, all is fine. But cant install scribus [09:42] tomreyn, is there any way to reinstall it using command line ? [09:42] means ubuntu 18 [09:42] You still have 16.04 packages installed [09:42] karstenk, if you put LC_ALL=C before the command like `LC_ALL=C sudo apt --fix-broken install` you should get english output and more people will be able to help [09:43] sonu_nk: we already tried to reinstall the phpmyadmin package, this was one of the first things we tried in fact. [09:43] sonu_nk: did you edit the postinstall script, did it help getting better output? [09:44] doug16k thanks for the tip here is my update https://paste.fedoraproject.org/paste/L01W2-XeW1zeVqKoFkVH7g [09:44] karstenk: libkf5screen7 4:5.12.5-0neon+16.04+xenial+build60 is not an ubuntu package., apparently ouy had some ppa instaleld on 16.04 and did not use ppa-purge to remove it before you started your release upgrade. [09:45] that's a good recipe to run into such issues. [09:45] tomreyn how can I purge old ppa or how to identify them all? [09:46] karstenk: https://github.com/tomreyn/scripts -> foreign_packages [09:46] that's to identify them all [09:46] but you really should have done that before you upgraded. [09:46] (it can still help now) [09:47] that cant be changed anymore [09:48] you'll need to put apt into a situation where it can install new packages first of all, though [09:49] ? [09:49] so i guess i'd start with "sudo apt update" and "sudo apt purge libkf5screen7". if the former prints any warnings, show them. if the latter prints any errors, show them. [09:51] tomreyn, same output it is giving.. [09:51] as it was giving before..

[11:55] amount of channels [11:56] with "cat /proc/asound/card1/pcm*p/sub0/hw_params" if not defined jackd reserves 6 channels [11:56] checked with* [11:56] limit channels to 2 and playback works [11:56] thanks for the follow up. === Versalife_ is now known as Versalife [12:26] Hello [12:27] Hello there [12:29] Popping in for a quick question regarding Google accounts and Ubuntu 18.04. I have added two Google accounts from the Settings > Online Accounts -view and selected to only sync my Calendar. What I am trying to do is to get my Google Calendar events showing up in the top task tray's calendar. For some reason, they're not showing and thus I have two questions: a) Is there a command I can run to sync the events, or does it always require a re-log / reboot to [12:29] fetch the newest ones? This behaviour would be a bit dull tbh. b) If not fixed via relog/reboot, do I have to install another application to get the calendar events showing? I really don't need nor want a separate Calendar software, just want my events showing up in the task tray calendar. [12:30] brb [12:31] Quick network reset, sorry bout that... ;P [12:36] I kinda messed up my Ubuntu 18.04 installation I think [12:36] <|sergedx|> Hello, I'm getting this error when installing Ubuntu 18.04: "fuse: device not found, try modprobe fuse first". modprobe does not work, this module is not listed in lsmod output. Does anybody faced this issue, how to fix? === vtntimo_ is now known as vtntimo [12:56] <|sergedx|> fixed this problem by chrooting to the installed system, removing grub efi and installing grub-pc (Installer has not detected that I'm using BIOS for booting, not UEFI) === ztrawhcse is now known as elibrokeit [13:11] hi. can i dualboot ubuntu with this pc ? [13:11] Client: HexChat 2.12.4 • OS: Microsoft Windows 10 Pro (x64) • CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU E7400 @ 2.80GHz (2.80GHz) • Memory: 3.0 GiB Total (1.9 GiB Free) • Storage: 180.1 GiB / 268.8 GiB (88.7 GiB Free) • VGA: NVIDIA GeForce 9400 GT • Uptime: 6h 46m 7s [13:15] system16: probably [13:15] great. do u know how can i do that ? === charles is now known as Guest28655 [13:17] you can install/run linux on most anything built in the last 15 years. 32 bit CPU or better, 4meg of ram or something [13:17] the tricky part of what you mention is "dualboot" [13:17] y ? [13:17] i think im a bit low on storage. [13:18] <|sergedx|> system16: do you have free (unpartitioned) space on your disk? if not, you need to make it first, by using special utilites like partition magic [13:18] that means you need to get a bootloader installed that will boot both linux and windows, which may not boot if it isn't signed/secured or something, which may make it difficult. (for me anyway) [13:19] yes i have . but its only 8 MB [13:19] 88.7 GiB Free - plenty, but currently allocated to Windows. [13:20] so i should shrink one of my drives ? [13:20] yes [13:20] bootloader ? i need to install a bootloader ? [13:21] the ubuntu installer will both shrink your current drives and install the bootloader and give you the option of booting windows too [13:22] oh so its ez [13:22] it wont harm my data right ? [13:22] it will if you tell it to. which is unlikely, but I did it once. [13:23] so there is a option called dualboot in ubuntu installer ? [13:23] I got confused between which drive I wanted to keep and which I wanted to wipe and install the OS on. whoops. [13:23] hello i need some help to find some workin android emu for ubuntu/ubuntu mate [13:23] <|sergedx|> you better have a backup for all your data before shrinking. And if you already have such backup, another option is to reinstall windows first, with full repartition [13:24] oh my problem is that ubuntu doesnt say the drive names it just says /dev/sda [13:24] or /dev/sda1 [13:24] system16: you will see a message like "installer has detected another OS on your disk. would you like the option to boot it?" [13:24] and i should press yes ? [13:24] yep [13:25] like |sergedx| said, now is the time have a backup. [13:25] I avoid dual boot and run Ubuntu from an external hard drive [13:25] but you have that anyway. [13:25] ok. thx can u give me a utube / article link about how to dualboot ubuntu w/ windows ? [13:26] there isn't enough to say. press Y. [13:26] oh, shrink the drive. hmm... [13:27] sda is a drive, sda1 is the first partition on that drive [13:27] sec. im sue there is something that describes options [13:27] btw one of my drives is encrypted by bitlocker. [13:27] b:\ [13:27] sda is the labled linux gives it ;) [13:27] i need some help to find some workin android emu for ubuntu/ubuntu mate cause i try to use anbox but doesnt work for some reason [13:28] <|sergedx|> system16: I'd better make chkdisk.exe /f for all windows partitions before shrinking them. Just to ensure they are clean of errors [13:29] ok thx for ur help [13:29] its kinda late. i have to go. bye for now.

[13:58] sergedx: cpu - amd ryzen and gpu - nvidia 1060 gtx [13:58] Xard: btw, I just switched driver from nouveau to nvidia-driver-390 and problem disappeared [13:58] are you using custom google chrome themes? [13:59] No. Just fresh installed chrome. It should be nouveau-related issue [13:59] sounds like nouveau problem [13:59] i just noticed that the chrome changes the theme abruptly when logging in which i didn't even remember [14:00] sudo add-apt-repository ppa:certbot/certbot told me to add that [14:00] but chrome is heavily gpu accelerated so it probably is a driver issue [14:01] hmm [14:01] any response?
