| sonicwind | I'm using a new (used) laptop for first time. Normally, in indicator-multiload, you can put your mouse over the app icon at top of the screen and adjust what monitored resources you see there by scrolling the mouse wheel while over it. How do I do that on a ThinkPad? | 00:02 |
|---|---|---|
| sonicwind | nevermind... just realized this is probably off-topic here... gotta find a general hardware channel | 00:03 |
| BaKKaR | Can someone help me with my Nvidia please, its is integrated Nvidia, it was working fine and then suddenly stopped after switching to Intel graphics. I have tried like 5 drivers 396 - 380 - 340 all the same. Models when doing (lsmod |grep nvidia) are loaded but still cannot open Nvidia settings and cannot do switch. | 00:03 |

| svip | I am doing a do-release-upgrade, but I cannot access my Xorg tty anymore, or rather, XFCE won't load windows. | 00:29 |
| svip | So I cannot see how it is going. | 00:29 |
| svip | But I can see in htop that I have a 100% CPU usage across my 4 cores. | 00:29 |
| svip | Doing a sudo apt-command indicates that it is still locked. Is there a way I can check whether it is safe enough to reboot? | 00:31 |
| === Tin__man is now known as Tin_man | ||
| nacc | svip: it's not, if your cpus are busy | 00:31 |
| nacc | svip: did you see in top/htop *what* is using your cores? | 00:31 |
| svip | nacc: But it's mostly XFCE-programs that are taking CPU time. | 00:31 |
| nacc | svip: also from what to what were you upgrading? | 00:31 |
| svip | Such as xfce4-panel, xfce4-terminal, etc. and Xorg. | 00:31 |
| svip | nacc: From 16.04 to 18.04 LTS. | 00:32 |
| nacc | svip: that's not currently supported | 00:32 |
| nacc | svip: dunno if it's well-tested yet by the xubuntu folks | 00:32 |
| svip | nacc: Yeah, but my laptop shouldn't behave like this, even if the upgrade isn't supported. | 00:33 |
| nacc | svip: well, dunno if that's accurate | 00:35 |
| nacc | svip: the upgrade process itself may be broken and doing something funky | 00:35 |
| svip | nacc: It seems more like Xorg/XFCE is actually hogging all the resources. The dpkg-process seems to be sleeping. | 00:36 |
| Bashing-om | BaKKaR: In replacing the driver .. did you remove the /etc/X11/xorg.conf config file ? and is secure boot disabled ? | 00:36 |
| svip | Why should nm-applet or xfce-session run at 100%? | 00:37 |
| BaKKaR | Bashing-om: i did not try that. However, i have run Nvidia-xconfg which then replaced - supposedly - the xorg-.conf in the process | 00:38 |
| easzero | i have got a problem. If i start a browser, firefox or chromium e.g, then it crashes immediately after seconds I have already tried some cleaning commands in the terminal. Error remains | 00:40 |
| Bashing-om | BaKKaR: I just do not have faith in Nvidia-xconfg after the fact on a new install . I feel the better if the file is built in the install process . personal feeling is all . EFI machine where secure boot must be disabled ? | 00:41 |
| nacc | svip: possibly because they are being replaced, etc. | 00:41 |
| nacc | svip: in any case, you could try rebooting whenever you want, but it seems likely you'll need to repair your system manually | 00:42 |
| easzero | any ideas? | 00:42 |
| BaKKaR | Bashing-om: i am using normal boot, UEFI is off/disabled | 00:42 |
| BaKKaR | Bashing-om: r u suggesting to purge nvidia all and then removing the xorg.config file , then reboot and reinstall the drivers again .. is that the right sequence? | 00:43 |
| Bashing-om | BaKKaR: EFI will not discern how you are booting - if enabled it will do it's job to not allow 3rd party software . | 00:43 |
| BaKKaR | i can double check th BIOS, but the UEFI is OFF .. and i dont have the UEFI drive .. all that removed already. | 00:44 |
| Bashing-om | BaKKaR: were me and what I do .. is make sute the system is fullt ipdated and allow the system to choose the driver it thinks best to install ' sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall ' . | 00:45 |
| BaKKaR | i eant no UEFI partition in my HDD setup and it is disabled | 00:45 |
| Bashing-om | sure* | 00:46 |
| svip | nacc: OK. But it should be possible to repair? | 00:47 |
| svip | Even if manually. | 00:47 |
| BaKKaR | Bashing-om: ok it is downloadning now, should i remove all nvidia drivers i have now already before it continues? | 00:48 |
| Bashing-om | BaKKaR: There can be only one ! I always remove the bad driver before getting the replacement . | 00:49 |
| BaKKaR | Bashing-om: yeah, i have noticed the command u suggested is removing the old one already | 00:50 |
| BaKKaR | i am going to go ahead and try | 00:50 |
| Bashing-om | BaKKaR: :) will not hurt to try . | 00:51 |
| BaKKaR | Bashing-om: :) | 00:51 |
| * BaKKaR crossing his fingers | 00:51 | |
| nacc | svip: in theory, yes | 00:52 |
| BaKKaR | Bashing-om: i have done and rebooted now .. should i try the Nvidia-xconfig? | 00:57 |
| Bashing-om | BaKKaR: No, that file should have been built .. you can check for /etc/X11/Xorg.conf . | 00:58 |
| Bashing-om | BaKKaR: What releas is this .. as seems in 18.04 that file has moved ??? | 00:59 |
| Bashing-om | release* | 00:59 |
| BaKKaR | Bashing-om: i could find it in /etc/x11/xorg.config | 00:59 |
| BaKKaR | Bashing-om: what should i look for there? | 00:59 |
| oerheks | X11 .. else you get an empty file | 01:00 |
| Bashing-om | BaKKaR: looks sane ? with entries for both nvidia and Intel in that config file ? | 01:00 |
| oerheks | and config .. > conf | 01:00 |
| BaKKaR | oerheks: thx | 01:00 |
| BaKKaR | Bashing-om: i could see entries for both yes, intel and Nvidia. Also in the X11 folder i could find another file called xorg.config.nvidia.... | 01:01 |

| RoadRunner | under 18.04, is Flash player plugin installed in Firefox by default? | 01:08 |
| BaKKaR | Bashing-om: https://pastebin.com/vcREVb6i .. thank you | 01:10 |
| oerheks | RoadRunner, no. flash is part of the restricted extras package | 01:12 |
| svip | nacc: It went A-OK! | 01:13 |
| svip | My system is now running smoothly again and is upgraded. | 01:13 |
| RoadRunner | oerheks: in that case, is there an open source equivalent that allows to view flash content like video's, etc? | 01:13 |
| oerheks | standard html5 in firefox/chrome should work, for most flash content | 01:14 |
| oerheks | but flash is dead. hurray | 01:14 |

| BaKKaR | Bashing-om: yes i was googling that now :) | 01:17 |
| RoadRunner | oerheks: what about that flash content that isn't read by standard html5, what should I get for that? | 01:19 |
| andres_ | %n =Andres | 01:22 |
| Bashing-om | BaKKaR: Well, we know we have isues to overcome :) in small steps let's begin with the blacklisting . pastebin ' ls -al /etc/modprobe.d/ ' and ' cat /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf ' . | 01:27 |
| RoadRunner | so is there an open source player capable of playing that type of flash content that standard html5 in firefox can't handle? | 01:35 |
| Chicken_Wrap | RoadRunner: You mean like Pepper Flash? | 01:38 |
| Bashing-om | RoadRunner: This : ' apt show adobe-flashplugin ' ? | 01:43 |

| BaKKaR | Bashing-om: i have checked the directory and it does not contain that *.old-dpkg mentioned on some online forum | 01:45 |

| Bashing-om | BaKKaR: Hey ,, I too am in that learning process ! .. each and every one of us . So where are we ? I be awaitin g to lkook at what is blacklisted . | 01:45 |
| BaKKaR | sure .. in a second | 01:46 |
| guiverc | WoC, yep wayland has benefits (it wouldn't exist otherwise), but .... refer https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Wayland maybe | 01:46 |
| Bashing-om | WoC: It is what will be .. I find it smoother and faster than X11 - there are many apps that are not to this time ported over . | 01:46 |
| Bashing-om | svip: No, xfce will not be a part of wayland . | 01:47 |
| WoC | just that it seems to be a very long list of things not working with it | 01:47 |
| svip | Bashing-om: OK, thank you. | 01:48 |

| Bashing-om | WoC: I run wayland and with the nouveau driver no isues .. there is a lot of effort in nvidia's 396 driver to support wayland . | 01:50 |

| RoadRunner | Chicken_Wrap: Bashing-om: under 16.04 my Firefox has a plugin called Shockwave Flash and everything works fine (I am guessing it's a adobe-flash one - not sure). Don't remember how I isntalled it either... | 01:53 |
| Bashing-om | BaKKaR: We do have our work cut out for us, huh ? .. OK .. seems BumbleBee is still a factor . depreciated in favor of nvidia-prime . ' sudo apt purge bumble* ' .... and does this file exist - /etc/bumblebee/bumblebee.conf - ? | 01:55 |
| Chicken_Wrap | RoadRunner: They’re not the same. | 01:55 |
| RoadRunner | Chicken_Wrap: so what should I go with under 18.04 to have rock solid compatibility? | 01:56 |
| Chicken_Wrap | RoadRunner: I find just installing Pepper Flash works well enough. Never really had problems with it, but I don’t use Flash much anyway. Just the occasional video off a shitty web player and maybe a game once in a blue moon. | 01:57 |
| guiverc | svip, maybe of interest (xfce & wayland) .. https://www.reddit.com/r/xfce/comments/73gihm/are_there_any_plans_for_xfce_on_wayland/ | 01:57 |
| RoadRunner | Chicken_Wrap: so is Pepper Flash a plugin for Firefox like Shockwave Flash? | 01:59 |
| svip | guiverc: Thank you. | 01:59 |

| Chicken_Wrap | hi | 02:13 |
| Bashing-om | BaKKaR: Agreed, the blacklisting is not there- oh boy .. where to look ? .. does this file still exist ' /etc/modprobe.d/bumblebee.conf ' ? | 02:16 |
| Bashing-om | BaKKaR: those ^ blacklistings are acceptable . | 02:18 |
| BaKKaR | Bashing-om: hmmmm i am skimming through the other modprobe.d files .. bumblebee is not there | 02:19 |
| Bashing-om | BaKKaR: /etc/bumblebee/bumblebee.conf. ? | 02:20 |
| BaKKaR | Bashing-om: i am thinking .. in the nvidia version before this one, nvidia-48x the lsmod could show nvidia mods loaded .. but not this one .. could it be a driver not fitting? | 02:20 |
| BaKKaR | Bashing-om: no bumbelbee directory there .. we have just removed the package | 02:21 |
| BaKKaR | :-/ | 02:21 |
| BaKKaR | we have switched from bumbel to prime | 02:22 |
| Bashing-om | BaKKaR: We know that the driver did not build . as it is blacklisted - somewhere . There *May* be other reasons why the driver did not build . I would also like to see the kernel's boot line ' cat /proc/cmdline ' . | 02:24 |

| BaKKaR | Bashing-om: What i am thinking is that 396 is not "yet" fitting for my graphics nvidia m840. So, perhaps i need to o backwards to older drivers? | 02:29 |
| BaKKaR | correct me pls | 02:29 |

| hggdh | the_seeker: I do not know about VBox, but I know it can be done with KVM (I have one Windows 10 Pro KVM instance) | 04:15 |
| xboxown | With virtual box you are limiting windows with inferior hardware emulator | 04:15 |
| xboxown | You cannot play modern 3D games etc with using it in virtual box | 04:15 |
| cfhowlett | vbox doesn't run exactly the same as an actual installation, e.g. graphics. if your needs are modest and sparing, I'd say do it. | 04:16 |

| rorqual | Hi all, I've been hearing Ubunt has been developing in a different debian way in some aspects. I'd like to know in terms of percentage today, according Ubuntu Advanced Users and Developers: how much in terms of percentage, does remain Debian features and base in Ubuntu nowadays ? | 05:02 |
| rorqual | how much 'debian' still remains in 'ubuntu' in terms or percentage ? 20, 30, 40% debian in ubuntu ? more than it, less than it ? | 05:03 |
| guiverc | rorqual: this is a Ubuntu Support room; I don't see a support question in what you asked. #ubuntu-discuss may be a more room | 05:05 |
| guiverc | s/more room/more appropriate/ | 05:07 |
| rorqual | hi guiverc, thanks for answering and sorry for mistake here. In fact, you are right, this is an off-topic question, if compared to a regular technical question related to ubuntu linux support | 05:13 |
| rorqual | thanks for showing me #ubuntu-discuss | 05:13 |
| rorqual | now, a technical question, guiverc: is that possible I using ZFS in Ubuntu natively, running in the linux kernel directly, withou dkms module use need ? | 05:16 |
| guiverc | rorqual: you should avoid directing questions to a person, I can't answer zfs questions, and others may now overlook your question because it mentions me.. | 05:23 |
| rorqual | yes, guiverc, you are right again, thank you for warning ! | 05:24 |
| TabMasher | Does anyone know of a good utility for optimizing the filling of DVD/BluRay disks? Like, being able to give it a target capacity size, and having it sort directories of media optimally for that capacity size for ubuntu? | 05:27 |
| furkan | i installed 18.04 on a new machine (i was previously using 16.04), and have a question about the Gnome 3 dock: with Unity when you clicked on an icon on the dock, it used to tile all the open windows for just that app. Gnome 3 only shows small thumbnails when you click an app icon, but the activities screen tiles all the open windows - is there a way to make it tile windows per application type, instead of | 05:28 |
| furkan | tiling all windows from all apps? | 05:28 |
| lotuspsychje | furkan: you can adjust this from dconf-editor i think | 05:31 |
| furkan | TabMasher: i can't answer your question directly, but from a terminal if you navigate to the parent directory where your media is stored, type "du -hd1" and it'll tell you how big each child directory is | 05:31 |
| lotuspsychje | furkan: dconf-editor for bionic has also improved nicely | 05:32 |

| purpleunicorn | anyone else here | 07:17 |
| Jonta | Yes | 07:22 |
| purpleunicorn | do you know how to use UNetbootin | 07:25 |
| purpleunicorn | im trying to creating a bootable drive for ubuntu Jonta | 07:25 |
| purpleunicorn | Jonta: should i use bootable drive maker instead? | 07:26 |
| ducasse | don't use unetbootin, it's known to have problems. i'd just use dd or plain old cp. | 07:28 |
| purpleunicorn | ok | 07:28 |
| ducasse | if you want a gui, etcher is supposed to work well | 07:28 |
| Edisto | in 4.1 is there a way to lock the reference image to viewport? | 07:36 |
| purpleunicorn | ducasse: for some reason im trying to partition my ssd and when i click partition it stalls and then it randomly quits on me. What do you think could be the problem? | 07:41 |
| Edisto | oops wrong chan =D | 07:42 |
| ducasse | purpleunicorn: i don't know, can you try booting in 'try ubuntu' mode and partition with for example gparted? | 07:43 |
| purpleunicorn | idk maybe but idk how to do that | 07:44 |
| purpleunicorn | do you think its because my ssd has no storage. I mean it sayes 251gb and its all blue so i think i have no space | 07:44 |
| EriC^^ | take a screenshot | 07:46 |
| purpleunicorn | arlight | 07:46 |
| purpleunicorn | alright* | 07:46 |

| EriC^^ | looks like its full | 07:49 |
| EriC^^ | you want to erase it all and put ubuntu on it? | 07:49 |
| purpleunicorn | i dont even know why its full. i lost a lot of files and such a year ago and haven't had that much stuff on it since. I also have an external hard drive so maybe i could dump most of the stuff thats on that on my hard drive. I just wanted to partition twice and make one for linux and ubuntu to make the bootable flash drive | 07:51 |
| purpleunicorn | EriC^^: i used vbox for ubuntu and gave me a lot of problems which is why i wanted to do this instead | 07:52 |
| EriC^^ | i see | 07:54 |
| purpleunicorn | EriC^^: how would i be able to free up the space for the SSD | 07:55 |
| ducasse | if this is on a mac you should probably shrink the partition from mac os | 07:56 |
| EriC^^ | purpleunicorn: you can copy all the stuff to your external one and then repartition it from scratch, or you can shrink it like ducasse said and leave some of the stuff on it | 07:57 |
| purpleunicorn | EriC^^: which is better? | 07:58 |
| purpleunicorn | how do i shrink it exactly? mac os ssd has 138.68gb of free space | 07:58 |
| EriC^^ | purpleunicorn: take a look here http://osxdaily.com/2009/11/20/resize-partitions-in-mac-os-x-with-disk-utility/ | 07:59 |
| purpleunicorn | EriC^^: thanks | 08:03 |
| EriC^^ | yw | 08:03 |
| purpleunicorn | for some reason when i put my external hard drive in time machine doesnt tell me if its backing up or even in progress | 08:05 |
| ducasse | we don't support mac os, so we can't help with that | 08:07 |
| TabMasher | furkan: https://sourceforge.net/projects/filesfitter/ | 08:07 |
| purpleunicorn | ok | 08:08 |
| purpleunicorn | ducasse: what do i do if the volume has space but the external physical disk doesnt? what does that mean? | 08:10 |
| ducasse | purpleunicorn: probably that there is space for more files, but no unallocated space for new partitions | 08:11 |
| purpleunicorn | okay | 08:12 |

| ducasse | 'sudo dd if=/dev/sdb of=output.img bs=4m' to read to image, and 'sudo dd if=output.img of=/dev/sdb bs=4m' to write | 08:51 |
| ducasse | where sdb is the usb device node | 08:51 |

| rush | i will give it a try ,thanks for the help | 09:00 |
| ducasse | np | 09:01 |
| ducasse | just so you know, you don' really need to run gnome to use the disk utility or other gnome apps - you can install them manually | 09:03 |
| rush | well, it says i can clone a currently mounted frive anyway | 09:03 |
| rush | odd | 09:03 |
| rush | so i have to exit ubuntu before i can clone it !? | 09:03 |

| rush | but the nthe os wont run? | 09:05 |

| rush | or can i just clone it with windows? | 09:06 |
| rush | does windows clone linux files ok? | 09:07 |
| ducasse | you don't clone the files, just the raw device, so doing it from windows shouldn't matter. | 09:08 |
| rush | yes ok.. u know wat i mean | 09:08 |
| rush | can the device reliably be cloned if i plug into windows pc? | 09:08 |
| rush | thats good | 09:08 |
| rush | much easier | 09:08 |
| rush | if u are sure it can clone linux data fine | 09:08 |
| rush | i read sumwhere maybe it doesnt work well | 09:08 |

| chomwitt | why software center wont report idle-python ? (18.04) | 09:09 |
| ducasse | rush: a raw image is just a dump of the disk, it doesn't need to read the files | 09:10 |

| TabMasher | I'm making a BTRFS to install Ubuntu. How can I make set all the files to be compressed? Either during the install, or after the install, I'd like as much of the disk to be compressed? | 09:40 |
| blackflow | TabMasher: Look up the manpages and documentation. The reason I say that is because btrfs is a complex filesystem and using it without knowing how to really use it is illadvised. Plus, it's not really stable, so make sure you have proper backups. | 09:42 |
| ducasse | +1, it's lost data for me more than once | 09:43 |
| uruk7 | hello i cannot remove a files -> -rwxrwxrwx and in lsattr is --------------e--- can you help me? | 09:43 |
| TabMasher | blackflow: Thank you for the advice. I just need a filesystem that supports compression mainly, and I don't know which other ubuntu supported filesystems supports file compression. | 09:43 |
| blackflow | TabMasher: Question is, do you really need it? What do you intend to store on it? Unless you have a lot of text documents or files that don't already compress, you're NOT going to see significant compression ratios. | 09:45 |
| ducasse | zfs, but that's only supported for storage, not the root fs | 09:45 |
| blackflow | ducasse: it's supported for root as well | 09:45 |
| ducasse | zfs, by ubuntu? you can't select it in the installer, afaik. | 09:46 |
| blackflow | TabMasher: i'm using ZFS exclusively on all the machines and I don't see compressratio above 1.10 which is cca 10% | 09:47 |
| blackflow | ducasse: so? it works fine as a root fs. the installer does not cover all possible use cases anyway. | 09:47 |
| blackflow | unless the metric for "supported" is what the installer does? which would be a very bad thing :) | 09:47 |
| TabMasher | blackflow: I have large highly compressible files that contain redundant data. I don't really need the system files to be compressed so much. | 09:48 |
| blackflow | TabMasher: well, you know your use case the best. Just consider whether you really need to add the complexity. disk space is relatively cheap nowadays. what file format is it, that doesn't already compress, and there's huge size of them? | 09:49 |
| ducasse | it works, yes, but it wasn't officially supported last i saw. but i agree that's a technicality. | 09:49 |
| blackflow | ducasse: by the installer? yes. By system tools, kernel and initramfs. It most certainly is ;) | 09:50 |
| TabMasher | blackflow: I'm on a laptop so disk space matters in this case. | 09:50 |
| blackflow | (yes = not supported) | 09:51 |
| TabMasher | I'm needing a software/fs solution. Only other OS that would probably work well is NTFS of all things... | 09:52 |
| TabMasher | err, FS. | 09:52 |
| blackflow | TabMasher: then consider btrfs, zfs or squashfs, maybe just for the partition that will hold all that compressible, redundant data. | 09:52 |
| blackflow | TabMasher: I suppose btrfs is easiest to use in this case. compression is mount option. ** DO ** consult the docs about all that, it's not a regular FS. | 09:53 |
| === juboxi is now known as jubo2 | ||
| TabMasher | I wish I knew how to implement ZFS for my /home dir for example. Can you recommend some literature for reading about how to use btrfs and zfs "natively" in ubuntu? That would help me a great deal. Thank you very much. | 09:56 |
| blackflow | TabMasher: the book ZFS Mastery is affordable on Amazon. I use ZFS exlusively, and am biased toward it. No idea what to recommend about btrfs other than try google. | 09:57 |
| blackflow | TabMasher: sorry it's "FreeBSD Mastery: ZFS". Doesn't matter that it uses FreeBSD as the base OS, ZFS here is OpenZFS, so most concepts apply regardles of the base OS. | 09:59 |
| blackflow | there's also the followup book "FreeBSD Mastery: Advanced ZFS", those two are highly recommended if you want to seriously use ZFS. | 10:00 |
| TabMasher | Online literature would be preferable. A website with btrfs and/or ZFS information. ZFS sounds absolutely ideal, but I don't know my way around it and enough linux to implement. | 10:02 |
| sensible | I am using Dell server poweredgeT440, I have two hard disks each having 4TB space , I want to install ubuntu server with RAIS 1 partition | 10:05 |
| ducasse | TabMasher: https://pthree.org/2012/04/17/install-zfs-on-debian-gnulinux/ | 10:05 |
| sensible | *RAID 1 partition, in this case what should be the size for swap,ext4 etc? | 10:06 |
| TabMasher | ducasse: Thank you for the link. | 10:07 |
| blackflow | TabMasher: ducasse that's not a good link | 10:07 |
| blackflow | Ubuntu fully supports ZFS. there's zfsutils-linux package, and the modules are part of the kernel. Back in 2012, especially Debian (even today) required building ZFS from source. | 10:08 |
| === Richard is now known as Guest39912 | ||
| blackflow | TabMasher: look up "ZFS tutorial", that's about generic use of ZFS, regardless of underlying OS. Avoid tutorials that wnt you to build something from source, not needed on Ubuntu. | 10:08 |
| TabMasher | I thought that Ubuntu supported ZFS already, I've never been able to find out how to use it. Even if I just make one big /home partition in ZFS, that would be acceptable. I'll look up more recent ZFS tutorials. Thank yo for your help and you suggestions/input. | 10:10 |
| TabMasher | your^ | 10:10 |
| blackflow | TabMasher: it does, that's my whole point here | 10:11 |
| TabMasher | err, Thank you. | 10:11 |
| blackflow | TabMasher: in short? sudo apt install zfsutils-linux ; sudo modprobe zfs (not sure even if needed nowadays) ; zpool create my_first_zfs_pool /dev/sdX where sdX is a free partition to use. | 10:11 |
| blackflow | TabMasher: just note, ZFS is not a regular filesystem. it's.... LVM + mdadm + filesystem + compression + snapshots + ... all rolled into one. | 10:12 |
| sensible | Is it neccessary to allocate space for ext4 before installing ubuntu? | 10:12 |
| blackflow | TabMasher: (not literally LVM + mdadm + .... but volume management + raid management + .... ) | 10:13 |
| TabMasher | blackflow: I remember reading up about it 3-4 years ago and getting really fascinated with it. | 10:13 |
| blackflow | TabMasher: I can't imagine running anything else these days. | 10:14 |
| blackflow | sensible: depends on what exactly you want to do. The installer can use the entire disk and allocate all the space needed, automatically. | 10:15 |
| TabMasher | blackflow: So you're using ZFS native under ubuntu/linux, or just from FreeBSD? :o | 10:15 |
| blackflow | TabMasher: both, with more machines on Ubuntu than FreeBSD | 10:16 |
| === shann_ is now known as shannara | ||
| TabMasher | blackflow: Very awesome. I hope to find a ZFS tutorial. lol, maybe you might consider writing your own ZFS Blog/Tutorial someday. | 10:17 |
| blackflow | TabMasher: nah. Plenty of material out there, and I really recommend those books. there's kindle edition of them, and that's how I have them anyway. android kindle app, I don't have the device. | 10:17 |
| blackflow | in fact, all the books I own are digital :) dead trees are so 1990s ;) | 10:18 |
| TabMasher | blackflow: I'll see if I can find hard-copies next time I go to the bookstore to check them out, and then maybe order them from Amazon. :D | 10:19 |
| TabMasher | blackflow: That's true. It would work well along with my tablet. | 10:20 |

| yecril71pl | DVDs cannot be opened. | 10:48 |
| qwebirc47546 | why | 10:48 |
| qwebirc47546 | i need the files inside it | 10:48 |
| yecril71pl | They are solid and there is nothing inside. | 10:48 |
| yecril71pl | The files are on their surface, not inside them. | 10:48 |
| qwebirc47546 | i putted some files on it from windows | 10:48 |
| yecril71pl | So the files are on it, not in it | 10:48 |
| qwebirc47546 | what im gonna do now? | 10:49 |
| qwebirc47546 | how i can acces them | 10:49 |
| yecril71pl | Insert the disc into the tray | 10:49 |
| qwebirc47546 | then | 10:49 |
| yecril71pl | say { udisksctl mount -b /dev/cdrom; } | 10:50 |
| qwebirc47546 | it said that (Object /org/freedesktop/UDisks2/block_devices/sr0 is not a mountable filesystem.) | 10:50 |
| guiverc_t | qwebirc47546, i just inserted a disc in my dvd; opened nautilus & then can open the files on it... note: if the disc was written on the windoze machine you were using before and not 'closed', no other machine can use it unless closed (depends on software used for write though) | 10:51 |
| yecril71pl | say { file -s /dev/cdrom; } | 10:51 |
| qwebirc47546 | what do you mean (closed) | 10:52 |
| guiverc_t | qwebirc47546, if write wasn't complete; the 'directory' for the fs on disc will still be on writing (nero etc) machine, is written on close.... | 10:52 |
| zetheroo | how would I get the total amount of memory being used by Chrome/Chromium? | 10:52 |
| qwebirc47546 | it said(/dev/cdrom: symbolic link to sr0) | 10:52 |
| yecril71pl | it means that nothing can be added to the disc | 10:52 |
| yecril71pl | say { file -s /dev/sr0; } | 10:52 |
| qwebirc47546 | it says (/dev/sr0: data) | 10:53 |
| qwebirc47546 | and the disc was making sound | 10:53 |
| yecril71pl | That looks like the disc is damaged | 10:53 |
| qwebirc47546 | :'( | 10:54 |
| yecril71pl | I am sorry | 10:54 |
| yecril71pl | You need a professional to recover the data | 10:54 |
| qwebirc47546 | is ther any program that can open it like windows does | 10:54 |
| qwebirc47546 | like a simulator | 10:55 |

| qwebirc47546 | how to install it? | 10:58 |
| yecril71pl | Read the instructions on their home page | 10:58 |

| HexaByte | Hi. I'm trying to install php 5.4 alongside 7.2 on Ubuntu 18.04. The only place I found packages was on http://packages.rusoft.ru/ppa/rusoft/php/5.4/pool/ubuntu-xenial/amd64/php54/, so I added deb http://packages.rusoft.ru/ppa/rusoft/php/5.4 ubuntu-bionic main as a repo and it's key. PHP works, but I can not install some modules like mysql, due to dependencies. Anyone willing to help? Deps problem can be seen here: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/hjpfr2hcBV/ | 11:12 |

| qwebirc10391 | Hello um I tried to install Ubuntu but then it said installation when I reached to the location setup option so I tried it with another usb it SAYS grub minimal bash line how to fix this | 11:17 |
| qwebirc10391 | Installation failed when I reached the setting the location | 11:18 |
| ppf | failed how | 11:23 |
| HexaByte | OK. I will give up on Ubuntu 18.04. Unless I want to compile from source, there is no way to get PHP 5.4 alongside current PHP versions from packages. Going back to CentOS 7 where there are multiple repos for it. | 11:42 |
| HexaByte | Correct me if I'm wrong. | 11:42 |
| ppf | docker | 11:42 |
| ppf | HexaByte: ^ that was my correction (and my suggestion like a week ago) | 11:43 |
| HexaByte | ppf I will not run a containers just to get another PHP FPM running | 11:43 |
| HexaByte | inside of a VM | 11:43 |
| ppf | that's what they're for | 11:44 |
| HexaByte | there is no way, developers will make the app fit the container | 11:44 |
| ppf | why do developers care | 11:45 |
| ppf | how do you 'fit' a container? | 11:45 |
| ppf | but anyways, if you don't want to use a container, built from source is your only option on a recent ubuntu | 11:45 |
| HexaByte | ppf: There are some packages here: http://packages.rusoft.ru/ , specifically here: http://packages.rusoft.ru/ppa/rusoft/php/5.4 the only problem I have is with mysql extensions, which require old libmysql | 11:50 |
| Ool | HexaByte: I don't know for bionic but perhaps it's still working : https://askubuntu.com/questions/761713/how-can-i-downgrade-from-php-7-to-php-5-6-on-ubuntu-16-04/762161#762161 | 11:50 |
| HexaByte | https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/hjpfr2hcBV/ if there is a way to work around that | 11:50 |
| ppf | HexaByte: yes, old packages were not dropped from the repos just to annoy you ;) | 11:50 |
| HexaByte | I have working 5.6 Ool thank you I need 5.4 | 11:50 |
| Ool | arf | 11:51 |
| HexaByte | ppf: I know, it's normal | 11:51 |
| HexaByte | guys at rusoft shoud provide those, but either they are not, or I do not know how to use their repos | 11:51 |
| ppf | HexaByte: maybe they are, but there's going to be a conflict with the mysql libs required for your current system | 11:52 |
| ppf | this dependence nightmare is _the_ motivator for snap/flatpak (and thus by extension containerization) | 11:53 |
| HexaByte | i think they do provide these packages, I just do not know how to use APT repos of theirs | 11:54 |
| ppf | there's simply a version conflict | 11:55 |
| HexaByte | http://packages.rusoft.ru/ppa/rusoft/mariadb/5.5/pool/ubuntu-xenial/amd64/mariadb-5.5/ | 11:55 |
| ppf | !info libmysqlclient18 | 11:55 |
| HexaByte | i'll just add mariadb as a repo like i did with php 5.4 | 11:55 |
| ubottu | Package libmysqlclient18 does not exist in bionic | 11:55 |
| HexaByte | so no conflict anyways | 11:55 |
| HexaByte | i guess they used different paths | 11:56 |
| ppf | ? | 11:56 |
| ppf | your apt knows the pacakge | 11:56 |
| ppf | but it tells you it can't install it | 11:56 |
| ppf | that can be because it doesn't know where to get it from, or that there's a version conflict | 11:57 |
| HexaByte | i see that it does not know where it it | 11:57 |
| HexaByte | it is | 11:57 |
| HexaByte | I will fix this shortly | 11:57 |
| HexaByte | will let you know | 11:57 |
| HexaByte | bah libmysqlclient18 : Depends: libmariadbclient18 (= 5.5.60+maria-1rusoft5.3~bionic1) but 1:10.1.29-6 is to be installed | 11:59 |
| HexaByte | i guess I have to replace original mysql with theirs | 11:59 |
| ppf | breaking everything using mysql in your system | 11:59 |
| HexaByte | yes | 11:59 |
| ppf | the solution is to use a container. if you don't like that i can't help you | 12:00 |

| transhuman | thanks for that clarification so It looks like I need to load another sound module | 13:19 |
| transhuman | ? | 13:19 |
| transhuman | which one would I use | 13:20 |
| transhuman | it doesnt appear to see an ac97 | 13:20 |
| AdamDay86 | Well, you should be able to pick the output device, make sure the default is the ac97 | 13:20 |
| leftyfb | cristian_c: from 21 hours ago? | 13:20 |
| AdamDay86 | it's a standard sound chip | 13:20 |
| AdamDay86 | ubuntu should see it fine | 13:20 |
| leftyfb | cristian_c: no, I don't. But there are over 1700 other people here that could have potentially helped you out in the meantime | 13:21 |
| transhuman | AdamDay86, I see two devices presently Digital Output S/PDIF built in audio and a Line Out-Builtin Audio | 13:21 |
| AdamDay86 | pick the line out one | 13:21 |
| AdamDay86 | then start a song or something, or youtube, and test all the outputs | 13:22 |
| transhuman | Yeah its running | 13:22 |
| cristian_c | leftyfb: ok, but I've not received other answers | 13:22 |
| AdamDay86 | and make sure the volume is up ^_^ | 13:22 |
| transhuman | problem is when I click on a speaker to test 2 or soround sound 5.1, etc the button to run the test sound does nothing | 13:22 |
| transhuman | volume is up to max in 3 different methods, including alsamixer | 13:23 |
| transhuman | with all about 15 things showing except spdif which seems to do nothing | 13:23 |
| AdamDay86 | (I'm going to be honest here transhuman, I run elementaryos, I can't really look at the audio system ubuntu uses :( ) | 13:23 |
| === anders is now known as Guest16310 | ||
| transhuman | no problem , perhaps I should go to a mailing list | 13:23 |
| transhuman | it simply just doesnt work | 13:24 |
| AdamDay86 | did you check out the ubuntu forums? | 13:24 |
| varshitbhat | Does vlc media spoil speaker | 13:24 |
| AdamDay86 | the forums are a great source of help too ^_^ | 13:24 |
| transhuman | ok I will check | 13:24 |
| AdamDay86 | k | 13:24 |
| transhuman | varshitbhat, whats that | 13:25 |
| transhuman | thanks | 13:25 |
| transhuman | I have vlc installed | 13:25 |
| varshitbhat | No, someone said me vlc media player will corrupt the speakers of the laptop.i found in net that it happens for most sensitive laptops if volume is set above 100%(over amplification feature). | 13:26 |
| ukyrgf | VLC lets you set the volume "above" 100%, but it's nothing magical, it just adds compression and distortion like any other amplifier. Any sustained noise at full volume could damage a speaker. | 13:33 |
| === rougue_xirg is now known as xirg | ||
| transhuman | I see, well I have set the volume at mid and high levels, no sound what so ever | 13:40 |
| transhuman | but now I am wondering if its not loading the AC97 due to some detection interference, problem with the intel sound chip | 13:40 |
| transhuman | AdamDay86, is the forum indexed by google? | 13:41 |
| XenophonF | this is ridiculous - fresh install of ubuntu 18.04, no matter what password I enter, it claims that it's a dictionary word and won't let me skip the first user account creation step | 13:42 |
| ghostnik11 | hey quick question during boot after the ubuntu logo, i notice it says error invalid boot sequence then shows a lot of code that runs fast then it brings me to the login screen. how can i reproduce that in terminal? i want to learn what errors are occurring during boot that the system sees on my asus t100taf | 13:42 |
| leftyfb | XenophonF: so type a better password | 13:44 |
| leftyfb | ghostnik11: type dmesg | 13:44 |
| leftyfb | ghostnik11: or look in /var/log/syslog | 13:44 |
| zetheroo | is there a way to see all the installed programs (not packages) installed? | 13:46 |
| JimBuntu | ghostnik11, is the info not in dmesg? | 13:49 |
| ghostnik11 | leftyfb: i am still getting this drm:intel_bios_init [i915] *error* invalid sequence block (header) | 13:49 |
| XenophonF | leftyfb: I'm typing strings generated by 1Password. | 13:49 |
| === jeffguorg is now known as Guest47828 | ||
| === chao_ is now known as jeffguorg | ||
| ghostnik11 | JimBuntu, yeah i get two errors but during the boot when i press esc key i feel like i might have more errors. with dmesg i have only two errors shown with red text | 13:49 |
| XenophonF | q;1.2,3n4:5 is clearly not a dictionary word, and yet it says "Try to avoid common words" | 13:51 |
| compdoc | youre good then | 13:51 |
| ghostnik11 | JimBuntu, thing is, i put kernel 4.16.9 on my asus t100taf with ubuntu 16.04 and now i finally got brightness working via the fn keys and now my battery is 9+ hours b4 with other kernels it was only like lets say 3 hours so i feel this is a big improvement but i don't understand why i still get error | 13:51 |
| XenophonF | ghostnik11: create /var/log/journald and restart systemd-journald | 13:52 |
| XenophonF | that's a directory btw, root:root and 0755 | 13:52 |
| XenophonF | that will cause systemd logs to persist across reboots | 13:53 |
| XenophonF | in case what you need isn't in the legacy syslog | 13:53 |
| XenophonF | although dmesg and possibly the regular journald logs should have what you need, if it happens at boot time | 13:54 |
| XenophonF | so the `dmesg` command mentioned by JimBuntu, and `journalctl -xe` to read the logs | 13:54 |
| ghostnik11 | XenophonF, hold on that was really fast what u said, i get the first one about making directory but the journalctl -xe? can i run that command at boot then will be able to see the log? or no, i still need to create a directory. because i thought by default that all logs were saved somewhere in ubuntu | 13:59 |
| XenophonF | systemd doesn't persist logs across reboots | 14:02 |
| XenophonF | depending on what you're troubleshooting, you might want that | 14:02 |
| XenophonF | so to get journald logs to persist, you have to create that directory and restart systemd-journald | 14:03 |
| XenophonF | maybe on 18.04 that directory exists by default? | 14:04 |
| XenophonF | anyway, you read the logs using journalctl | 14:04 |
| XenophonF | there's got to be a way to skip gnome-initial-setup | 14:06 |
| ghostnik11 | XenophonF, yeah i read the same thing from blog of journalctl, okay i understand will make it right now and see. i think the developers of these great distros should put this feature by default | 14:08 |
| XenophonF | ah here we go | 14:08 |
| XenophonF | https://askubuntu.com/questions/1028822/disable-the-new-ubuntu-18-04-welcome-screen | 14:09 |
| XenophonF | yeah I can never keep all these little differences across distros straight | 14:09 |
| XenophonF | ooooh and that's how i disable wayland, too! | 14:10 |
| XenophonF | fantastic | 14:10 |
| ghostnik11 | XenophonF, okay i created directory and now i can just reboot tablet? which will reboot or restart systemd-journald? | 14:13 |
| XenophonF | yes | 14:17 |
| unrecovered | hi! how do i autostart vpn connection when openvpn service starts? | 14:19 |
| unrecovered | (ubuntu, obviously :D) | 14:19 |
| JimBuntu | unrecovered, https://askubuntu.com/questions/229800/how-to-auto-start-openvpn-client-on-ubuntu-cli | 14:21 |
| unrecovered | JimBuntu yeah, already did | 14:23 |
| unrecovered | added in /etc/openvpn and did AUTOSTART="all" | 14:24 |
| unrecovered | still doesnt work | 14:25 |
| unrecovered | any other ideas? :D | 14:25 |
| unrecovered | damn logs are empty, it doesn't even try -_- | 14:25 |
| JimBuntu | unrecovered, yes. Double check that manually running the config works. | 14:25 |
| JimBuntu | as in... openvpn --config /path/to/config | 14:26 |
| unrecovered | yeah, it works, and other side available(pingable) | 14:28 |
| JimBuntu | sorry unrecovered, I have not tried to start the client automatically before. The askubuntu answer looked good with 18 +s. | 14:30 |
| ppf | maybe a user-level systemd service | 14:31 |
| unrecovered | damn | 14:32 |
| ghostnik11 | XenophonF, okay so i did exactly what u said and now i see the error and it has to deal with the powerstate and suspend and resume. kernel: [drm:intel_bios_init [i915]] *ERROR* Invalid sequence block (header) | 14:36 |

| svip | blackflow: Thank you. | 16:31 |
| AntonVanCrypto93 | blackflow do you read this? How insane is that? Why put a LOGIN window in the middle of an install reboot that only devs know the username and password? | 16:32 |

| Guest15030 | I'm trying to install ubuntu through the Live CD(USB Drive), and ubiquity gets stuck on "Detecting FileSystems." The logs show upowerd throwing [https://pastebin.com/KWbwVzxQ].

| adrian_1908 | I have a question regarding apt. Does something like `--no-install-recommends` also exist for when one wants to reject specific package(s), but not all? | 18:16 |
| oerheks | adrian_1908, only the needed core packages will be installed, this option is often used with a desktop install | 18:18 |
| nacc | adrian_1908: what do you mean by "reject" specific packages? | 18:19 |
| adrian_1908 | I found a direct answer I think: https://serverfault.com/questions/250224/how-do-i-get-apt-get-to-ignore-some-dependencies#answer-663803 | 18:19 |
| adrian_1908 | nacc: for instance, install `mpv` and all that comes with it, but not `youtube-dl` which is not necessary unless the feature is used. | 18:20 |
| nacc | adrian_1908: ... well that would just as easily come with --no-install-recommends | 18:20 |
| nacc | adrian_1908: yes you can do what you are suggesting, but i think it won't work for actual dependencies | 18:21 |
| oerheks | with --no-install-recommends only xdg-utils and youtube-dl would skip https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/gHr4j9mHMP/ | 18:23 |
| oerheks | is this worth it, i wonder | 18:23 |
| sruli | i need some help with my internet connectivity, i can login to the pc (ssh) but there is not outgoing connections, i cant even ping an external address, other machines on the network are working fine (all ubuntu-mate 16.04) | 18:23 |
| nacc | oerheks: right, and i'm pretty sure if you told it not install an actual dep, apt would error out | 18:25 |
| ph0n3 | hello:) | 18:25 |
| oerheks | sruli, ssh in, as root? is networking available 'for all users' ? | 18:26 |
| sruli | oerheks: i can ssh in (from external network) as any user, but inside there is only local connectivity | 18:27 |
| adrian_1908 | oerheks: yeah, i wasn't aware of the scale of extra packages, now i know (will remember that command). I could have sworn it tried to install avahi-daemon as well, though I don't see it in that list. | 18:27 |
| sruli | oerheks: the other day i added it to a vlan so messed around with /etc/network/interfaces, but i now reverted all the config and i might get connectivity for few seconds after reboot, after that all fails | 18:28 |
| ph0n3 | did anyone use riseup-vpn from the software center? | 18:29 |
| oerheks | oh right, you reinstalled networkmanager i read back | 18:30 |
| sruli | oerheks: yes i tried that too, what else can i try | 18:30 |
| oerheks | remove profile from network manager and set a new ? | 18:31 |
| oerheks | not sure what else is to be done | 18:32 |
| sruli | oerheks: tried that too (about 30 times) | 18:32 |
| sruli | oerheks: is there nothing but a reinstall? | 18:39 |
| oerheks | as it is a virtual networking thing, reboot the router too? that might be your hickup | 18:40 |
| oerheks | no clue what else.. | 18:40 |
| sruli | oerheks: cant reboot router.. got about 15 public facing servers on it | 18:41 |
| oerheks | good luck then, sruli | 18:43 |
| sruli | oerheks: thanks | 18:43 |
| oerheks | no way to remove any lease? | 18:43 |
| sruli | oerheks: i already did that, i even set the lease for a different ip, no change... gonna try putting the interface in /etc/network/interfaces and see if i can connect like that | 18:44 |

| RSpliet | oerheks_, nacc: thanks. | 20:10 |
| RSpliet | oerheks_: That's precisely why I reported it ;-). As the bug report mentions, it involves avahi registering web printers that have otherwise been registered by cups. If I disable avahi, the printers stay but the problems disappear. The set-up is office like, not many home users will run into this | 20:12 |

| RobBurke | Tach zusammen. So halb related, aber ich wollte hier mal ob guter Erfahrungen fragen: Kennt sich hier wer mit dem Zugriff auf TP-Link Router aus? Ich komm da nicht auf die Anmeldemaske. Zur Erklärung: Hier hängt ein TP-Link zwecks WLAN aufspannen annen KabelDeutschland-Modem. Theoretisch sollte ich auf den TPlink per 192.168.1.1 oder 192.168.0.254 kommen, doch da tut sich nichts. Das Modem sagt zudem dass der Router unter v192.16 | 20:15 |
| RobBurke | 8.0.14 im Netz ist | 20:15 |
| RSpliet | nacc: Oh! I'm surprised to find gimp for Xenial in Universe. | 20:16 |
| RSpliet | However, I have a strong suspicion this is a gtk2.0+ bug, which does live in main. | 20:16 |

| Nordo | yeah its alright | 20:36 |
| Jonta | :) | 20:36 |
| Nordo | i think ill never use windows again] | 20:36 |
| Nordo | this is speedy thing | 20:36 |
| Nordo | snappy boi :) | 20:36 |
| Nordo | oh btw | 20:37 |
| Nordo | how do i uninstall LXDE completely? | 20:37 |
| Nordo | not just the meta package | 20:37 |
| oerheks | adding a desktop is fun, removing one is amazing | 20:37 |
| Nordo | lol | 20:38 |
| gigirock | Nordo, the meta is all | 20:38 |
| Nordo | sure? so there will be no leftovers and crap? | 20:39 |
| oerheks | apt clean & autoremove after next login helps | 20:39 |
| oerheks | but surely you can run into dependency issues | 20:40 |
| gigirock | Nordo, it depends , the LXDE was the main in installation ? like lubuntu ? | 20:40 |
| Nordo | no | 20:41 |
| Nordo | i installed it after installing ubuntu | 20:41 |
| Nordo | oh and | 20:41 |
| Nordo | ubuntu 18.04 | 20:41 |
| oerheks | sudo apt remove --purge lxde* -d # -d dry run to see what happens | 20:43 |
| Nordo | whats the command with quotes? | 20:44 |
| EriC^ | Guest25169: this is the line with the problem, not sure what it means though read(3, 0x7ffec24b828c, 4) = -1 EINTR (Interrupted system call) | 20:44 |
| oerheks | what quotes? | 20:44 |
| Nordo | insert " in the beginning and in the end | 20:44 |
| Nordo | so i know the command exactly | 20:44 |
| mac` | hello i am having issues with dpkg https://pastebin.com/JwsP6JFF | 20:45 |
| oerheks | you can use the whole line, all after # will be ignored | 20:45 |
| Guest25169 | EriC^ how shall I proceed then? | 20:47 |
| EriC^ | Guest25169: try joining ##linux and asking there | 20:47 |
| Guest25169 | Thanks :) | 20:47 |
| Nordo | aye oerheks | 20:51 |
| Nordo | whats the command again? sorry for annoying | 20:52 |
| ppf | Nordo: scroll up? | 20:52 |
| Nordo | well my internet died and the page refreshed automatically | 20:52 |
| gigirock | lol | 20:52 |
| ppf | sudo apt remove --purge lxde* -d # -d dry run to see what happens | 20:52 |
| oerheks | or maybe --dry-run | 20:53 |
| Nordo | sudo apt remove --purge lxde* -d # -d dry run? | 20:54 |
| Nordo | okay | 20:54 |
| Nordo | i get this: Package 'lxde' is not installed, so not removed. | 20:55 |
| Nordo | this is impossible | 20:55 |
| Nordo | The following packages will be REMOVED: lxde-common* lxde-core* openbox-lxde-session* | 20:56 |

| BrokenTrackpad | While replacing my laptop keyboard, I damaged the cable for it and the trackpad on my laptop. Now my syslog is being flooded with the kernel trying to connect to them then failing. I tried a fresh install but that didn't help. I'm thinking I will need to disable them somehow but I at least want to reduce the logging verbosity so I don't wear out my SSD in a week. I'm looking for suggestions or advice. /msg me and I'll send you a copy | 21:12 |
| BrokenTrackpad | of the loop showing up in my syslog. | 21:12 |
| ppf | can't you disable the trackpad in bios | 21:14 |
| BrokenTrackpad | @ppf Looking into it now but not that I'm aware of. Its a MacBook Pro, unfortunately. | 21:17 |
| oerheks | buy new laptop | 21:18 |

| robuntu | Hi all | 21:20 |
| robuntu | Installing Ubuntu here in Virtual Box | 21:20 |
| BrokenTrackpad | @gigirock Can I do that from linux or do I need an OSX installation? | 21:21 |
| robuntu | but couldn't specify which file system I preferred... I would like to use zfs, instead of ext4, that comes by default, during installation | 21:21 |
| gigirock | tr | 21:22 |
| nacc | robuntu: requires some manual work | 21:22 |
| gigirock | robuntu, you can do what you want | 21:22 |
| nacc | robuntu: google the zfsonlinux github page, iirc | 21:22 |
| nacc | robuntu: if you mean for / | 21:23 |
| robuntu | oh, so it is not automatized process, nacc, using zfs in ubuntu | 21:23 |
| nacc | robuntu: for non-/ it is | 21:23 |
| robuntu | fine, gigirock | 21:23 |
| gigirock | robuntu, zfs is like a pain in the ass ext4 is here to stay | 21:24 |
| robuntu | just a question: does zfs run natively in ubuntu, in the kernel linux (in other linux distros, it is not possible) or does it require dkms ? | 21:24 |
| robuntu | terrible situation, gigirock a pain in ass trying to install ubuntu with zfs | 21:25 |
| oerheks | due to license, AFAIK | 21:25 |
| nacc | robuntu: i believe it is fully supported in ubuntu, no dkms | 21:26 |
| ppf | robuntu: yes it's natively supported | 21:26 |
| robuntu | something absolutely intuitive and fast in FreeBSD, due to license FreeBSD Project uses, instead of gpl | 21:26 |
| nacc | robuntu: please stick to support topics. | 21:26 |
| robuntu | it is part of technical comments, nacc.... | 21:26 |
| nacc | robuntu: not relevant here, sorry. | 21:27 |
| ppf | robuntu: we have btrfs which is simply btr | 21:27 |
| robuntu | please, ppf, how does it run natively in ubuntu ? | 21:27 |
| nacc | robuntu: zfs is supported "natively" in Ubuntu kernels. | 21:27 |
| robuntu | not relevant for you nacc.... | 21:27 |
| nacc | robuntu: what is your actual question? | 21:27 |
| nacc | robuntu: the kernel module is built with others in the ubuntu kernel source. | 21:27 |
| oerheks | <robuntu> please, ppf, how does it run natively in ubuntu ? >> zfsonlinux github | 21:28 |
| robuntu | please, nacc, my doubts were already answered by your and ppf | 21:28 |
| robuntu | yeah, ppf, I use btrfs in debian, tried to do the same in ubuntu now | 21:28 |
| robuntu | but it is a graphical installation and there wasn't this option | 21:29 |
| robuntu | at least using this installation modality | 21:29 |
| robuntu | I'll repeat the process more twice | 21:29 |
| oerheks | this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ZFS links to https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs/wiki/Ubuntu | 21:30 |
| robuntu | thanks, oerheks | 21:30 |
| oerheks | i would not use zfs, as a vitualbox filesystem | 21:31 |
| oerheks | *hips* | 21:31 |
| nacc | oerheks: does feel like possibly a misunderstanding of what zfs is for :/ | 21:31 |
| robuntu | just installing a elementary ubuntu test environment here, oerheks | 21:31 |
| robuntu | you are wrong if commenting about me, nacc.... I know what is zfs | 21:32 |
| robuntu | and more than you can imagine, by the way | 21:32 |
| oerheks | oh, elementary .. good luck, it has its own issues and support channel | 21:32 |
| robuntu | well, if you didn't understand that, sorry, oerheks, just forget about it.... | 21:33 |
| robuntu | oerheks: grow up.... | 21:43 |
