xjkxhow do I stop/close/kill this initial setup welcome message after installing00:06
deadmundI'm running 16.04.4 LTS, can I upgrade directly to 18.04 LTS?00:08
foonacc: ah, it's a python web service, that's all.00:08
naccdeadmund: when it's available yes (you can do it now, too, but it's not supported and i would wait)00:08
fooleftyfb: by upstart init script, you mean, something that runs at the system level... eg. not a web service or such, right?00:08
naccfoo: oh i see, then python is irrelevant :)00:09
cq1Hey folks. Does anyone know if I can readily install meson with a version newer than 0.40 using apt? I checked xenial-backports, and it seems to have 0.40, but I'm unsure if there's some other source of even newer packages I could use.00:09
deadmundnacc: It's not available?  Wasn't it released back in April?  18.04     04 is April right??00:09
naccfoo: what version of ubuntu are you on?00:09
naccdeadmund: it's available, upgrades happen when the first dotrelease occurs.00:09
naccdeadmund: (for LTS -> LTS upgrades)00:09
nacc!latest | cq100:09
ubottucq1: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa.00:09
deadmundnacc: I would like to try now because I have a bug on my current install regarding my graphics drivers (and maybe kernel).00:09
deadmundnacc: How can I do it?00:10
deadmundnacc: When wil the first dot release occur?00:10
oerhekscq1, upgrade to bionic, i guess .. https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/meson00:10
deadmundI can use do-release-upgrade -d00:12
cq1nacc: oerheks: This is on AWS, using a fixed AMI, so I don't have that much ability to change the distro, and I also really don't care if it breaks everything.00:12
cq1oerheks: But thanks, that's super useful to know that Bionic has 0.45, because I know that 0.45 is new enough.00:12
deadmundhttps://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/installing-upgrading.html.en00:12
deadmundThanks erreybody!!00:13
oerheks-d = development, i think you might end up with Cosmic 18.10 ?00:13
luukdo the flavors get the dot releases simultaneously with the main ubuntu?00:14
deadmundoerheks: I don't think so.  The site I linked says specifically I can do this to go from LTS to LTS (when a point release is not yet available)00:14
naccdeadmund: yes, using -d, but it's not yet official00:14
naccdeadmund: maybe just do a reinstall?00:14
deadmundnacc: meh00:15
naccdeadmund: i mean, if you have a busted install already, not sure it's worth upgrading, but it's your choice00:15
naccoerheks: you wouldn't be able to go from 16.04 -> 18.10 anyways00:15
naccoerheks: i think it should go 16.04 -> 18.04 ahead of the LTS upgrade cycle00:15
nacc(it's contingent, i think, upon the setting)00:15
deadmundMaybe I'll just see if we can fix the bug.00:16
deadmundIn firefox when I click the hamburger button I can't see the menu.  Other menus work (right click, file menu, etc), but the addon menus and hamburger menu don't.  I am running the intel i915 driver and KDE on 16.0400:17
cq1nacc: oerheks: I just installed the version from bionic, and it worked perfectly! I was really worried it'd be binary with incompatible glibc version, but it was fine. Thanks so much!00:18
nacccq1: to be clear, that was not what either of us were suggesting to do.00:19
deadmundWhat package should I report that bug against00:21
deadmund???00:21
deadmundThe graphics driver? KDE? xorg? firefox?00:21
naccdeadmund: hamburger button?00:21
naccdeadmund: oh jargon, i see00:22
naccdeadmund: create a dummy user; does it happen to that user as well?00:22
deadmundnacc: dummy ubuntu or dummy firefox user?00:22
naccdeadmund: if so, then it's your local firefox config, erase it, back it up and see00:22
naccdeadmund: ubuntu00:22
deadmundnacc: good idea, let me check00:23
naccdeadmund: if that doesn't fix it, file it against firefox00:23
matteo_hello there00:25
matteo_anyone know what this microcode 0x22 error is when I try to install ubuntu directly to a drive vs on a virtual machine where this error does not come up?00:26
deadmundnacc: The problem persists even with a new ubuntu user.  Where / how should I file a bug?00:27
SrgjamesHow the hell can i get Mod_rewrite or the Vitrualhost when using a vhost on 44300:28
nacc!bug | deadmund00:31
ubottudeadmund: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please report it using the command « ubuntu-bug <package> » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs.00:31
naccSrgjames: you might want #ubuntu-server or a channel specific to apache00:32

xjkxi just installed the most recent ubuntu LTS,, seems it has many errors, just installed transmission-gtk, and running I get this: transmission-gtk: error while loading shared libraries: libminiupnpc.so.10: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory00:44
xjkxand apt-get -f install says everything is ok, but obviously its not00:45
naccxjkx: `apt-cache policy transmission-gtk` ?00:45
nacc(in a pastebin)00:45
naccxjkx: fwiw, works fine here on a relatively recent install of 18.0400:46
naccxjkx: also `apt-cache policy libminiupnpc10`00:46

StormmoreI am so close to getting this laptop working, if I could only work out the the whole Optimus install :-/00:55
naccthat's really weird00:55
naccxjkx: did you manually remove something (e.g., a library)?00:55
boblamontIs there a lightweight program that I can line up a playlist of songs in the order I want and then copy them to a directory numbered in the sequence that matches the order in the playlist?00:55
boblamontSay I have all of the Beatles albums on my Library drive. I line up a playlist of She Loves You, Let It Be and Taxman. I want to be able to do something where in a directory I choose, I end up with 01_She_Loves_You.mp3, 02_Let_It_Be.mp3 and 03_Taxman.mp3 (ideally, changing the whitespaces and other problematic characters to underscores or dashes or dots).00:55
naccxjkx: if not, try: `sudo apt-get install --reinstall libminiupnpc10 libnatpmp1`00:56
xjkxnacc erm, I removed grub, and some shin-or-something that was causing problems, because my install failed during grub install, so then I am using grub from my older version. Thats all I removed really00:56
xjkxnacc so should I try the new command anyway?00:57
naccxjkx: yeah, see if those libraries come back00:57
nacci need to step away for a bit -- someone else can help00:57
pragmaticenigmaboblamont: I am not aware of such a program, this really isn't the best channel to ask that question. You might have more luck in #ubuntu-offtopic00:58
xjkxnacc ok, thanks a lot, very much helpful00:58

guivercneoncontrails, i have no idea about the best way; but I just copy my $HOME folder to new machine, install ubuntu (somethign else & no format for $HOME), then see what it's like; if needs be I'll overwrite some files from my old machine but usually unnecessary  (this won't keep packages; I have scripts for that)01:54

guivercpinga, i don't know, but the only time I've seen two drivers were (1) installed by system when it recognized the printer, and (2) after I'd installed my wanted ppd (driver) - i just test both, and keep the one that works (or keep one if both good)02:03

redphantomCan anyone help me? Been trying to update mono but failing hopelessly02:58
redphantomi even tried compiling the tarball but that didn't update it02:58
guivercredphantom, what ubuntu are you using?? what mono do you do you have & want?  compiling the tarball will compile where it is; menu's won't point to that version and path's won't unless you've modify them to look wherever you compiled it...03:02

guivercbrowsing their repo i don't see any issues (they have multiple versions, bionic, stable-boinic...).  paths must point to id (inc. ld_library_path for libs; ie. not just executable)03:19
redphantomshouldn't this be automated somehow? how do i install this?03:20
guiverci'd suggest a script to enable your mono sessions that add the required paths; then when done a script to return to normal.   it's automated when you use the deb/packages; from source means you compile & put where you want (using technique from the 70s where only grey-beards, devs etc used it)03:21
redphantomhow can i get the deb package for mono?03:21

redphantomguiverc here is my apt update list https://pastebin.com/FzNazQ2U03:25
guivercredphantom, `apt-get upgrade` has rules it must comply with to allow upgrades (kept back), i suspect you need to dist-upgrade -- refer `man apt-get`03:26
redphantomman apt-get?03:27
guivercredphantom, yep or look at http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/xenial/man8/apt-get.8.html  in upgrade section; with "under no circumstances.." which is then followed by dist-upgrade ....03:28
redphantomok i did sudo apt dist-upgrade and i think that is working...03:28
redphantomdo i upgrade after this?03:28
guivercupgrade is used for stability (prod'n systems), no reboots, no version bumps - dist-upgrade does all of upgrade plus....03:28
redphantomwell i never knew about dist upgrade so thank you very much guiverc :)03:30

reactiv3hi, i'm having a slight issue with my refresh rate and i can't seem to be able to fix it, i'd be glad if someone could help06:54
reactiv3i am stuck at 50hz refresh rate, unable to go higher, despite xrandr showing that 60hz is in use, here's the first line from xrandr: 1366x768 60.06*+  47.9906:54
reactiv3i tried setting it again with xrandr -s 1366x768 -r 60, still stuck. However if i lower the resolution, the refresh rate will go up to 60hz06:57
reactiv3the monitor supports 1366x768@60hz06:57
ducassereactiv3: that output looks like you're at 60hz to me (60.06*+)07:06
reactiv3ducasse, that's the issue. It's showing 60hz while it's 50hz in reality07:17
ducassereactiv3: how do you see it's 50hz - does the monitor show it?07:19
reactiv3testufo.com07:19
reactiv3i can also know from the fps of some games which are tied to the monitor's refresh rate. They run slower than usualy at 50hz07:20
reactiv3setting the resolution to 1360 x 768 instead of 1366 x 768 fixes the refresh rate issue07:21
reactiv3what a weird issue07:23
reactiv3after changing the resolution, i get this which is correct: 1360x768 59.80* 59.9607:26
reactiv3setting it back, i get this which is incorrect: 1366x768 60.06*+ 47.9907:26
reactiv3might this be permission issues with some config file?07:31
EriC^^reactiv3: try https://www.vsynctester.com/detect.html07:34
reactiv3EriC^^, same result, stuck at < 50hz07:36
EriC^^reactiv3: try making a custom mode with refresh rate slightly below 6007:36
reactiv3i checked the "displays.xml" file - all settings are correct as well as permissions07:36
EriC^^reactiv3: cvt 1366 768 5907:37
EriC^^reactiv3: xrandr --addmode "1366_768_59" 83.75  1368 1440 1576 1784  768 771 781 797 -hsync +vsync07:38
EriC^^reactiv3: * --newmode not --addmode07:39
EriC^^reactiv3: then xrandr --addmode "1366_768_59" --output "<your output here>"07:40
EriC^^then select it07:40
illuminatedI'm considering taking the plunge and installing ubuntu on my desktop07:42
reactiv3EriC^^, it worked07:42
reactiv3EriC^^, thanks07:43
reactiv3check this, the old xrandr output07:43
reactiv3https://i.imgur.com/rG77JGx.png07:43
reactiv3the only resolution which has less than 60hz rate is the native one07:43
reactiv3do you think if i edited the first line and removed the 47.99 it would have worked?07:43
EriC^^reactiv3: maybe yeah07:44
EriC^^reactiv3: i've never seen the config file, you might need to change the modeline if it uses it there07:45
EriC^^can you upload the config?07:45
reactiv3do you mean the xrandr output?07:46
EriC^^no the config that you mentioned in editing and stuff07:46
illuminatedis it pronounced ewwbuntu or uhhbuntu?07:47
Richard_Cavelloo-boo-n-too07:48
EriC^^reactiv3: the xrandr stuff is temporary btw, you'll need to either edit some file or add it somewhere in the startup when your user logs in, ~/.profile works something like "if [ -n $DISPLAY ]; then xrandr ......blablabla ; fi"07:51
EriC^^!xrandr | reactiv307:51
ubottureactiv3: XRandR 1.2 is the new method of running dual screens in !X.  Information/HowTo here: http://wiki.debian.org/XStrikeForce/HowToRandR1207:51
amosbirdhi, when do I need libc-dev ?07:51
reactiv3EriC^^, it seems i made a mistake. I typed 1360 instead of 1366, thus getting 60hz. I tried it again with 1366, still stuck at 48.x hz :(07:52
ducasse...or put the modeline in a xorg.conf.d snippet, that's where it belongs07:52
reactiv3EriC^^, Sorry about that, i prefer to type rather than copy paste, seems i made a typo07:52
reactiv3anyway i'll stop bothering you, i'll try to tamper around with xrandr, seems to be an issue with it. thanks for your time07:55

ShishKababA weird bug has popped up recently. I'm using Yakuake from Ubuntu daily on a uHDPI screen. Randomly when I start my computer, the font size gets increased or decreased. Any idea where that might come from?08:18
ducassenewbii: iscan is a program from epson, you need to download that + drivers for your scanner from their website08:19
newbiiducasse: yes I downloaded this. I am just hesitating to launch the procedure, because something has changed: iscan is no more in the repository. Does not that mean that iscan is no  more compatible with 18.04?08:24

oerheksmohnish_, using the nvidia drivers from their site is not recommended, with our packages you would get updates10:06
SomeTif your graphic driver works dont worry about it10:06
ducassemohnish_: because there are packages that will do it properly, the .run file will only install them for your current kernel10:06
oerheks.. and support here.,10:07
mohnish_oerheks: Why is it not recommended, does it break your system?10:07
ducassemohnish_: i just told you10:07
EriC^^mohnish_: it's just a bad idea on many fronts, unless you absolutely need a version outside of the repo for something, juse use the repo provided one10:08
mohnish_Okay, so the repo kinda tweaks the .run file to support it for a no. Of systems10:08
mohnish_And provide updates10:09
EriC^^it also allows you to easily remove it if you dont need it anymore10:10
mohnish_Oh okay10:10
mohnish_Got it10:10
EriC^^plus it's less messy cause the package manager knows everything that's installed, so nothing gets overlapped etc etc10:10
xjkxusing pendrive to install, it failed installing grub, i just ignored and used another system to get grub working, but the new system seems to have many errors with libraries now, maybe i should install through cd? i dont know why grub failed to install through pendrive anyway(i meant i burnt the iso to usb)10:21
oerheksxjkx, could i be that your machine is UEFI ?10:26
oerheks!uefi10:26
ubottuUEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI10:26

Sh4d03Hi all, I'm trying to create a USB using the "All in One System Rescue Toolkit" iso file. There are instructions for creating in under Windows, but I don't have access to one right now. I've tried the "Startup Disk Creator" and I've tried using dd, but both times the USB fails to appear in my boot devices (implying it didn't work). Any suggestions?10:26
EriC^^Sh4d03: what's iso file like? if you use fdisk or something on it what do you see10:27
Sh4d03EriC^^: meaning, mount it and then see what fdisk says?10:28
EriC^^Sh4d03: no, try fdisk -l /path/to/iso10:29
Sh4d03EriC^^: AiO-SRT_2018-01-02.iso1 *        0 1357823 1357824  663M 17 Hidden HPFS/NTFS10:30
EriC^^Sh4d03: can you pastebin the results?10:32
EriC^^Sh4d03: append | nc termbin.com 9999 to the command10:32
Sh4d03EriC^^: http://termbin.com/pyo410:33
EriC^^Sh4d03: look like dd'ing it should work, did you set your bios to csm legacy?10:34
Sh4d03EriC^^: I didn't change anything in the BiOS, but I do have a USB buntu installer that the BiOS detects.10:36
EriC^^Sh4d03: when it detects the ubuntu installer, does it offer a black & white grub screen or a menu in the middle of the screen?10:36
Sh4d03EriC^^: as in, I can hit the interrupt for the boot devices (F12) and then select it.10:37
Sh4d03EriC^^: It's not using grub when I do that.10:37
EriC^^Sh4d03: so it does not display a black & white screen/grub menu?10:37
Sh4d03EriC^^: It displays a grub menu if I let it continue booting normally - but that just gives me the Ubuntu / Advanced Options options.10:38
EriC^^Sh4d03: ok, well i guess the iso is either bad or you need some extra tools to install the mbr and make it "bootable"10:39
EriC^^Sh4d03: if the ubuntu installer doesnt give a grub menu, then it's using legacy mode not uefi so the bios is set right10:39
EriC^^Sh4d03: did you checksum the iso?10:40
Sh4d03EriC^^: perhaps I answered wrong - If I select the Ubuntu installer drive, it goes to grub.10:40
EriC^^Sh4d03: yeah10:40
EriC^^then you're booting the usb's in uefi mode10:40
EriC^^and the iso you have is only made for legacy systems10:41
Sh4d03EriC^^: the system contained on the iso is designed to work with both.10:41
EriC^^Sh4d03: nope, it's not10:41
EriC^^Sh4d03: uefi uses a efi partition type ef00 with a fat filesystem10:42
EriC^^if you want run the same fdisk command on an ubuntu .iso and you'll see the difference10:43
EriC^^your iso has a ntfs filesystem, with a bootflag on it, it's for legacy systems only10:43
Sh4d03EriC^^: I was only going by what it says here -> https://paul.is-a-geek.org/aio-srt/ under "Why can't I boot on 32-bit systems"10:44
EriC^^Sh4d03: maybe you downloaded the wrong iso version?10:46
Sh4d03EriC^^: I could onyl see one - but I'll look further and see what I can find. Thanks for your help.10:47
nurulHi...10:51
nurulHow are you guys??10:51
nurulHello ??10:52
EriC^^Sh4d03: actually, can you figure out what filesystem it is?10:54
EriC^^i just realized fdisk isnt actually showing the filesystem, just the type "17" which could be wrong10:54
xjkxi realized i have all systems innstalled in legacy (not uefi), so i wanna install my grub in legacy way. but, i realized, my usb burnt iso only boots if i enable uefi boot, so, it seems it only wants to install grub in uefi, then it fails10:54
EriC^^Sh4d03: are you able to mount the iso directly or you need to use losetup ?10:55
xjkxmy usb-burnt-iso is running in uefi, but i need to install as legacy10:55
EriC^^xjkx: run the installer with "ubiquity -b" and then manually install grub-pc10:56
EriC^^(after chrooting into installed system from the installer)10:56
xjkxwhat does this ubiquity -b do?it says dont install the grub?10:57
EriC^^yes10:57
xjkxok thanks10:57
xjkxEriC^^:  do i run it with sudo?10:58
EriC^^no10:58
xjkxEriC^^:  so then to install grub i only need to install grub-pc package, then do grub-install /dev/sda ?11:01
EriC^^xjkx: you need to chroot first, then grub-install /dev/sda11:03
EriC^^xjkx: http://pchelp.site/topics/how-to-setup-a-chroot11:03
xjkxEriC^^: i can actually boot there, i have a grub in another system ^^ i would only install grub for convenience but i can access the system11:04
EriC^^xjkx: ok, then just apt-get install grub-pc and you're good11:06
EriC^^xjkx: actually having 1 grub would be better, that way they dont install from an upgrade and overwrite eachother in the mbr11:07
EriC^^unless they're on 2 separate hdd's in that case it'd be nice to have grub in the mbr of each respectively and maybe then just remove grub-pc from one11:07
xjkxalright, thanks11:08

lotuspsychjehans_: when you boot it and its wrong, setup will tell you wrong architecture11:55
EriC^^hans_: type "uname -m"11:55
hans_lotuspsychje, nope - if you boot up a 64bit installer on a 32bit cpu, it will tell you, but if you boot a 32bit installer on a 64bit cpu, it won't complain11:56

lotuspsychjehans_: i didnt say it would not work, i said ^ scroll up11:57
hans_you said "if you have a 64bit hardware, you ned to install the 64bit ubuntu iso"11:57
hans_i guess by `ned` you meant `need`11:57
hans_bleh, w/e11:58
lotuspsychjehans_: that means if your hardware is capable of 64bit, install 64bit11:58
hans_well, if you're ram-constrained, you might want to run 32bit ubuntu regardless11:58
lotuspsychjehans_: wrong11:58
EriC^^dzipc_: ok, type "echo $prefix"11:58
hans_lotuspsychje,  in 32bit, integers and memory pointers are 4 bytes long, on 64bit ubuntu, they're 8 bytes long, when you run 32bit ubuntu, the system and just about everything will use less ram than running the equivalent 64bit system11:59

pragmaticenigmaphocean: I'm not familiar enough with AppArmor to know how to create profiles and help reduce it's noisiness. Did you enable any 3rd party package repositories? Do you have any custom or self compiled programs installed?13:30
phoceanpragmaticenigma, not, it is all default applications. I am using Docker, but otherwise nothing special. I would disable Apparmor if it was not an important security component of Docker, precisely.13:32
phoceanpragmaticenigma, maybe I am going to remove all profiles except Docker... but it should not reach that point if the profiles were better adjusted, in my opinion.13:33
pragmaticenigmaare these within the Docker container, or this is the host machine of Docker throwing these errors?13:33
phoceanpragmaticenigma, no, for instance CUPS happens when printing to my network printer13:34
phoceanpragmaticenigma, man in the terminal of the host13:34
phoceanpragmaticenigma, and network manager, when plugging an USB ethernet cable13:34
pragmaticenigmaphocean: I understand the triggers... what I don't understand is what environment you are running Ubuntu13:38
phoceanpragmaticenigma, a thinkpad laptop13:38
pragmaticenigmaphocean: that is the hardware, not the environment13:39
pragmaticenigmaI'm trying to determine is it the host operating system running Docker that has AppAmor errors, or is it the operating system inside one of the Docker containers giving out AppAmor errors13:40
phoceanpragmaticenigma, it is the host that has these errors13:42
pragmaticenigmaphocean: Did the host OS installation come from Ubuntu, or did you download an install image from another resource?13:43

kantlivelongALT+LEFT?13:54
pragmaticenigmaphocean: Any thought that the Docker installation added or reconfigured profiles?13:54
kantlivelongIE go back on a browser or file manager13:54
phoceanpragmaticenigma, no, it's impossible, the profiles are intact13:55
pragmaticenigmakantlivelong: I'm not understanding what you are saying. Your sentences are incomplete and fragmented13:55
kantlivelongpragmaticenigma: pressing ALT+LEFT ARROW results in switching to another VT. That is certainly not normal.13:56
pragmaticenigmaphocean: I'm not seeing any appamor in my logs... where do you find them?13:56
phoceanpragmaticenigma, I will adjust them by hand then, but I hope this will improve in the future. It must be very annoying for users that cannot deal with it.13:56
phoceanpragmaticenigma, you can find them in /var/log/kern.log and just grep on apparmor.13:57
pragmaticenigmakantlivelong: you are correct, that is not normal, at least I have not experienced it13:57
phoceanpragmaticenigma, I do receive notification popups also, if you don't it means you have no trouble13:57

pragmaticenigmaFurretUber: Have you installed any 3rd party PPAs or installed software from sources other than those provided by Ubuntu?14:03
LachezarHey all. I've got a weird problem with my newly installed Xubuntu: "ssh-add -l" shows all my keys in ~/.ssh, but "ssh-add -D" does not clear the keys, and always asks for password even though I have 'ssh-add -s /.../pkcs-11.so'. Really nagging!14:04
FurretUberNo, this package is from first party. I have checked its sha256, I'm wondering if it's a false positive: https://www.virustotal.com/pt/file/5de40e115f1748edf370c373e36a1d4077afcd91167bee799ee1609b34b173d1/analysis/1531833770/14:04

oerheksFurretUber, our clamav is much newer :-D ... so,., tell the truth!14:15

ubottuclamav (source: clamav): anti-virus utility for Unix - command-line interface. In component main, is optional. Version 0.99.4+addedllvm-0ubuntu1 (bionic), package size 107 kB, installed size 796 kB14:15

oerheksi rest my case14:16
blockflawFurretUber: the way these things work is that they search for "signatures" which are sequences of bytes that _might_ look like malware from teh database. IF clamav finds something, it's not 100% guaranteed to be that. If it doesn't, it's never 100% guarantee there's nothing in it.14:16
blockflawthis pretty much is applicable to ALL antivirus/antimalware or even IDS14:16
FurretUberUbuntu 18.04 LTS \n \l14:16
pragmaticenigmaI was always under the impression that ClamAV was mostly a tool for finding Windows Viruses that were being hidden on Unix machines. (Like scanning e-mail, ftp, websites for virus payloads). Didn't know they'd expanded it out to Unix/Linux specific threats14:17
blockflawpragmaticenigma: the way it works, it doesn't matter what's the source of the signature. but yeah, they cover everything the can.14:17
FurretUberWell, I wrote wrong before. When I wrote 0.94 it was 0.99.4, sorry14:18
Ubu-1604question : what is the difference between the 'ubuntu software - Updates' and the seperate 'software updater' icon? .. i always use the seperate software updater, but the other says I have OS updates to install (1) .. I'm not sure if I should run both?14:29
UserUSUbu-1604, The other one suck tbg, I ignore it completely. I'll run updates and it still says I have them all the time14:31
UserUSUbu-1604, best way to get the sys updates is just sudo apt-get dist-upgrade14:31
Ubu-1604UserUS: oh .. so run that sudo command seperately? .. I'll try that now.14:33
=== zen_ is now known as rafr
UserUSUbu-1604, yeah, I do sudo apt-get update && upgrade && dist-upgrade14:33
Ubu-1604another quick one .. I just discovered the ubuntu web browser .. runs fast .. how do I get the lastest version? .. I was just going to look in the Snap store14:34
Ubu-1604UserUS: is that sudo command 3 seperate lines? .. sorry I'm kinda new to the ubunto world .. or just run that whole line with the  '&&'14:35
Ubu-1604UserUS: when I upgraded Quassel irc I had to use a INSTALL command as well14:35
UserUSUbu-1604, you can put it in terminal the way I put it, or you can do each apt-get by themselves. so sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get upgrade, sudo apt-get dist-upgrade. To get the newest version of something, run an apt install and it'll update to the newest version14:36
UserUSUbu-1604, https://askubuntu.com/questions/301484/how-do-i-update-ubuntu-manually14:37
Ubu-1604UserUS: awsome :) ... so I can do that for any software on here? .. like the Ubuntu web browser .. I was to upgrade it .. how do I even find the version number? .. there is nothing on the main web browser menu .. is there an easy way to find any version nunmber of software I have installed?14:37
lotuspsychjeUbu-1604: apt-cache policy your-package-name-here14:39
UserUSUbu-1604, also running the update and upgrade will automatically include the built in browser14:40
Ubu-1604ok yes I understand now :) .. ya the built in web browser is nice, BUT I don't see any HOME button .. which is why I was going to try and upgrade14:41
Ubu-1604seems to show in the book marks though so that's ok14:42
Ubu-1604last question ... is there a way I can make the quick launch bar wider? .. I want to add more icons but the bar is full .. i was hoping for 2 rows or even a way to make a folder to put icons in.  Or maybe a better launch bar app/snap?  I'm using ubuntu 16.0414:43

geniibag: As Shabbysheik says, you can reduce them with shrinkpdf, there is also pdfcompress and pdftk15:30
blockflawbag: for A4 print I wouldn't go lower than 200 DPI, 300 is standard for offset and digital print, 600 is standard for crisp rasterized text.15:30
geniiI've had better results with pdfcompress15:30
bag600 is what I used to scan originally15:30
sweinDoes 18.04 still not support Multiple display individual DPI scaling? I have a 4k and 1440P, all scaling is for both. I've tried gnome tweak tools also15:30
blockflawbag: if it's not text, you can lower it to 300. I mean you can lower even text to 300, but it'll be slightly fuzzy in print, not clear and crisp as 60015:30
blockflawpure text documents, black and white (NOT grayscale), 600 DPI should compress quite well.15:31
bagblockflaw, afraid I dont want that: bachelor and master diploma15:32
blockflawthen 600 it is, lossles compression.15:32
blockflaw1-bit (black and white, not grayscale) if it's pure text. that will significantly reduce the file size.15:32

entulandhello everybody, I'm installing Ubuntu Server 18.4 via Hyper-V, the installation process asked me about the disk (I created a 30GB virtual disk)15:40
entulandwill I be fine with everything set for / as ext4, or should I manually partition it to use swap or the alike?15:40
entulandI just need it to mess with some simple dev sites under apache and PHP, nothing fancy15:40
ioriaentuland, 18.04 uses swapfile15:41

oerhekstyping numbers is boring, so i do not.15:48
oerheksdev loops.. those are snaps, let them be, or remove the snap15:49
roryyeah files in /dev/ you don't delete really, it's a pseudo-device that represents some bit of "hardware" on your machine15:49
Ubu-1604question : how do I get to use all 4 of these multiple work spaces? .. the main one always seems to be overlayed? .. I can't use the other 3.15:49
rory"hardware" in quotes cos it doesn't have to be a physical device15:49

endlessdreamSo what is the purpose of snaps / loops?16:24
ppfwhat's a loop16:24
naccendlessdream: do you mean loopback mounted filesystems?16:24
naccppf: -^ possibly16:25
ppfah. that's just files mounted as if they were devices16:25
endlessdreami mean /dev/loop that they said earlier was connected to snaps16:25
ppfand snaps are a containerized packaging format16:25
endlessdreamOkey, why is that a good/bad thing?16:26
ppfbecause it provides application isolation, bundles all dependencies, and provides contexts for different concurrent application versions16:27
endlessdreamI am very new to ubuntu (like a week) and don't understand much so that is why i ask here. I prefer to talk people.16:27
ppfso for security, safety, and dependency management16:28
endlessdreamSo to make the programs run more efficiently and secure?16:30
ppfjust more secure16:30
blackflowwell, not all of them. --classic snaps are not confined.16:30
ppfmostly more safe16:30
blackflowthe primary "purpose" for snaps and flatpaks is that vendors can deliver the software without having to battle the base OS for dependencies, and/or clobbering the main filesystem.16:31
ppfyes16:31
ppfsafety and security are an added opt-in bonus16:31
endlessdreamSo insted they clobber the fdisk?16:32
blackflowthe secondary purpose is isolation through interfaces.16:32
ppfyes ;D16:32
blackflowmy biggest gripe with snaps is that you must be very careful which ones you install. anyone can upload anything and you have to trust them, their security policies, etc...  I prefer the maintainer middleman in default repos.16:32
ppfindeed. i'm not using snapd16:33
endlessdreamOkay that sounds good and all but I find it annoying that I have to scroll through 15 loops and one mapping just to find my disks,16:33
oerheksplus point is roll back, it keeps 3 versions16:34
blackflowendlessdream: I think there's a bug open for that16:34
endlessdreamBut i have not installed any snaps or loops to my onw knowledge16:34
blackflowendlessdream: the problem being in the gnome file manager, right?16:34
oerhekssome packages in softwarecenter are snaps, no longer deb16:34

ducasseendlessdream: 'snap remove <nameofsnap>'17:22
endlessdreamthanks, i'll try17:24
ducasseendlessdream: you can use 'snap list' to look up the names of installed snaps17:27
naccnote that, afaik, local config for the snaps will remain even on removal (in ~/snap, if the snap uses it)17:29
endlessdreamokay, but it is as i feared. If i remove the snap the program is also removed17:30
naccuh... of course?17:30
naccendlessdream: why would you think anything otherwise?17:31

endlessdreamand as obvs i failed to understand what a snap is. but now i understand more17:36
naccendlessdream: honestly, not being condescending; snap and deb are just different ways to get programs17:36
endlessdreamokey thanks :)17:36
iorianewbii, don't know exactly your issue, but sometime those pkgs create and install libs in wrong places like in /usr/lib6417:37

iorianewbii,   and  you reinstalled the drivers , right ?17:43
naccendlessdream: no, i think you are being a bit silly, tbh.17:43
naccendlessdream: snaps *must* use loopback mounting. Just get used to it.17:44
naccendlessdream: i'm guessing you don't like that they show up in `df -h` usage, or something?17:44
endlessdreamOkay, and yes I probably am. Yeah.17:44
newbiiioria: i erased pangolin completely and installed beaver from scratch. then downloadd the drivers from epson site and installed them there was no error during installation, just once it asked if Ok to install xsltproc i said ok17:45
endlessdreamThanks for the help. I learn a lot.17:45
naccendlessdream: you can just a grep to skip stuff on loop, if that's what is bothering you17:46

ryuoment0s: not necessary, but it's a common issue with how resolved breaks networks that relied on sequential queries.18:45
ryuoit's why i've bypassed resolved for local DNS.18:45

ubottuhalvors: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please report it using the command « ubuntu-bug <package> » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs.19:03
halvorsYeah, but will actually anyone care to do anything about it, ie. backport commits from upstream master?19:04

halvorsOk thanks :)19:05
nacchalvors: ... i mean, file the bug? yes, in general, bugfixes get worked on19:05
naccleftyfb: not sure why you'd redirect them to #ubuntu-devel19:06
iorianewbii, the other solution requires the manual installation of .debs pkgs,  that probably would cause unmet dependencies  or stuff19:06
naccthe appropriate choice is to file a bug and resolve it via a bug19:06
leftyfbsure, but to get answers about backporting, isn't that sort of thing done in -devel?19:06
naccleftyfb: my reading was they were asking if it's possible, which it is, and how to request it, which is file a bug; not about backporting themselves19:07

qwebirc27648Hi guys. I've got a problem here. I have msi gp62m 7rex leopard laptop. It has ubuntu 18.04 install on ssd+hdd, lvm with luks on ssd and luks on hdd mounted on /home. Graphic drivers are nvidia-390.48 (but same error with software rendering). DE is Cinnamon, Display manager is GDM3. The problem is that one day it just stopped shutting down, rebooting or suspending. Last messages while shutdown or rebooting are: https://i.imgur.c19:40
ikoniayou want to be mopping up any exceptions19:40
DammitJimwho said we aren't?19:40
qwebirc27648... And when suspending: https://imgur.com/5otDEz5 . I've got bios password installed, secure boot disabled, uefi enabled. What i tried to fix the problem: 1. reinstalling the system 2. removing quite splash from /etc/default/grub 3. resetting bios settings 4. shutting down without logging in to the account 5. shutting down with systemctl, init 0, halt, poweroff. Nothing worked.19:40
DammitJimanyways... see ya'll and thanks again19:40
ryuoCentOS makes more sense usually if you need longer support windows.19:40
PosterIt does go longer, which can be good if you need it, the trouble there is that the underlying software is relatively frozen for the duration of the release.  The Ubuntu LTS approach is more in the middle, meaning if you do not need newer software you can run for 5 years (or longer with extended support), BUT if you want newer software, you have the option to update every 2 years.19:48
ash_worksiis there a way to get grep -z to print each match on 1 line?19:51
blackflowPoster: the only problem being, those "dev" (non-LTS) versions are testbeds for new tech and usually very broken, and by teh time they stabilize, they EOL.19:52
Posterblackflow: yeah I was referring to jumping from LTS to LTS every 2 years, not the non-LTS for the reasons you mention19:53
blackflowLTS is really the only sane way to run things unless you want to fiddle and tinker with new stuffs and all the broken glass of it, every 9 mo19:53
blackflowPoster: ah indeed you did. For some reason I read taht as using dev releases19:53
ryuoblackflow: i think i have the strangest problem with a new laptop... the brightness keys are both mapped to the same keycode and the same scancode...20:05
ryuoi've reproduced it with multiple distributions. not sure what's causing it.20:05
ryuoi'll be reporting it when I get some time.20:05
ryuoblackflow: on the bright side I did manage to patch a minor issue with the audio LEDs not working..20:07
ryuoUbuntu already sent it to kernel upstream.20:07
blackflowryuo: heh on the "bright" side :)    btw, did you verify those keys with xev or something?20:08
ryuoblackflow: yes. i also tried showkey from the console. acpi_listen...20:08

blackflowweird. maybe bios/firmware issue20:09
ryuoPossibly, or a kernel issue.20:09
ryuoI know it works on Windows.20:09
ryuoSo, maybe something the kernel isn't doing.20:09
ryuoIt seems to be rare. I didn't find anything like this from all my searching.20:10
ryuoMost either are only applicable to Intel laptops...20:10

ryuoFair enough. Those have other problems though.20:13
ryuoIt can be difficult to get replacement parts.20:13
blackflowDunno. System76 are supposedly designed grounds up for full HW support by Linux, especially Ubuntu.20:14
memphistowhat replacement parts? you buy a new one20:14
ryuoI guess I'm weird. I like to repair laptops if it's pheasible.20:14
memphistomemory, hdd, cpu..standard. you can replace those20:14

psyknacc, i tried 18.*, went down to 16.*.. i don't normally use ubuntu, but since this laptop is so old, it doesn't make sense to run my usual OS - gentoo on it, plus it's 32bit, i don't want to set up a whole overlay just for it, thought i'd try ubuntu since "it should just all work".  lol. not so much. even stuff you guys used to support you just don't anymore it seems.21:10
psyknacc, is there really no way to do this?21:10
naccpsyk: well, not sure why you blame the distro; it's probably an Xorg or kernel change.21:11
psyklshw -C video | grep driver shows: configuration: driver=i915 latency=0.21:11

RDaneel01ivawHi everyone, recently I installed a default installation of ubuntu 18.04, with gnome, and got everything setup and running and had no real major problems at all. However, after using it for a while, I'm starting to get extremely frustrated with the performance. Not sure if it's the gnome shell, or what else it could be... And it seems to go in waves, like right now my system is responsive and snappy. But other times, like last night, it was DOG21:16
RDaneel01ivawSLOW. The entire system was almost unusable. My hardware is very powerful. core i7 6700, nvidia gtx 1080, 16 gigs ram, ssd main drive, etc... I was wondering if anyone had any insight into this, if it's a common thing, etc...?21:16
leftyfbnacc: i965-va-driver is part of the Universe repo in 18.04 and 16.0421:17

Ubu-1604leftyfb: I'm trying to try out that Discord prog, I got that Mumble going just fine .. Using Ubuntu 16.04.4 and the snap/package is 'discord' ... I ran [sudo apt install snapd-xdg-open] which worked .. then [sudo snap install discord] .. error: snap "discord" not found.21:46
gogetaUbu-1604: discord has a deb on there website21:46
gogetaUbu-1604: you dont need to use snap21:47
Ubu-1604gogeta:  : yes I see that .. but doesn't it also say under it for 64 bit linux only? .. i'm using ubuntu 16.04-32 bit I think21:47
Ubu-1604I don't know how to install from a 'deb' either ... hehehe no idea what that is21:48
gogetaUbu-1604: yea upgrade to 64bit 32 bit is being phased out21:48
leftyfbUbu-1604: uname -m21:48
Ubu-1604leftyfb: uname? .. run that?21:48
leftyfbUbu-1604: yes, and past the result here21:48
Ubu-1604k21:48
Ubu-1604says i68621:49
leftyfbjust verifying that it's 32 bit21:49
gogetaUbu-1604: discord do not provied 32bit21:49
naccright, even the snap is only 64-bit21:49
Ubu-1604oh21:49
nacchttps://snapcraft.io/discord21:49
Ubu-1604k i'll go jump off this bridge now ;)21:49
naccgogeta: not 'upgrade', but reinstall, to be clear (if their cpu supports 64-bit)21:50
gogetaUbu-1604: if your pc is less then 10 years old its probly 64 bit just install the 64 bit distro21:50
Ubu-1604sounds like I would have to reinstall lots ... this computer runs just fine , I'll setup 64bit on a different box21:51
leftyfbUbu-1604: cat /proc/cpuinfo |grep "model name"|uniq21:51
Ubu-1604it's a dell, older box lefty21:52
gogetaUbu-1604: fair enough21:52
gogetaUbu-1604: even if its a old core serise its 64bit21:52
Ubu-1604I got a xeon box I just put win10 on .. i'll try that discord on that21:52
leftyfbUbu-1604: cat /proc/cpuinfo |grep "model name"|uniq21:52
Ubu-1604leftyfb: model name: AMD Athlon(tm) II X2 240 Processor21:53
gogetaUbu-1604: i  t is 64 bit21:54
Ubu-1604older box but Ubuntu runs realllly fast on it ... i'm really impressed actually .. Firefox runs super quick and plays HD videos quite well ... well 720p is smoothest21:54
leftyfbUbu-1604: 64bit would run better21:54
gogetaUbu-1604: i would not run gnome 3 on that21:54
gogetaUbu-1604: maybe lubuntu21:55
Ubu-1604I'll try this teamspeak thing then ... i didn't want to use voice chat for games though.21:55
=== r0Oter is now known as r00ter
gogetaUbu-1604: you probly will even be faster then your currrent unity install21:56
Ubu-1604gogeta: someone said that ubuntu 17.10 also uses the Unity GUI? .. 17.04 and 18.04 do not from my understanding?21:56
Velusunihello all if i want to allow users to have an account on my server but restrect them to be only able to view their home directory, and also have it so they can exicute programs and also use screen how would i do it21:57
gogetaUbu-1604: yea they switched to gnome 3 but you can use diffrent pins of ubuntu21:57
gogetaUbu-1604: like lubuntu or ubuntu mate those both run will on older hardware21:57
Velusunithis is on ubuntu server btw21:58
naccVelusuni: uh, just take away sudo? i think that might be the default behavior21:58
gogetanacc: umm no21:58
naccVelusuni: oh only view their home dir? you don't want them to even be able to access /tmp?21:58
Velusuninope21:59
Velusunithe would also need to be able to run mono21:59
naccVelusuni: many things will break, if you restrict it so tightly, i expect21:59
naccVelusuni: the user would have to be able to read, e.g. /usr/bin and /usr/lib in order to run programs21:59
Velusunii mainly want to restict them to use and view there own folder i.e /home/user22:00
cooloutachello all22:00
cooloutacdoes anyone know how to install flash in chromium bionic?22:00
Veus_uninot really they only need to read their own folder22:01
naccVelusuni: then they would not be able to run screen or mono, unless you make them install it in their home directory22:01
Veus_unithey will only need to run mono and a program i.e they will only need to rune on program22:01
cooloutacis flash no longer possible?22:02
Veus_unican it not be run by typeing it in, i.e inorder for me to run one program i just need to run mono opnesim.exe22:02
gogetacooloutac: ?22:02
naccVeus_uni: i think perhaps you need to read what you just wrote and think about it again22:02
gogetacooloutac: sudo apt-get install pepperflashplugin-nonfree22:03
Veus_uniwhen im runing opensim i just need to be in the directory that it is in i.e /home/alan/opsnim/bin and they just type mono ./opensim.exe and it works, i dont need to go into another folder.22:03
gogetacooloutac: thats chrome flash22:04
cooloutacok ty i will try that22:04
cooloutachmm unable to locate package22:04
naccVeus_uni: and in order to do that, your user has to be able to read the mono binary, including its directory and its parent directory, etc.22:05
naccVeus_uni: you are confusing so much in your sentence, that I don't think you should run a multi-user server.22:05
cooloutacI see something called browser-plugin-freshplayer-pepperflash   ?22:05
Ubu-1604gogeta: so is a deb(x86) download for a 32-bit install? .. I'm going to try and install that rocket chat22:05
Velusunisorry net issues atm22:05
gogetaUbu-1604: yes22:06
gogetacooloutac: no it should be pepper22:06
cooloutacits not in my repos22:06
Ubu-1604gogeta: well ok,l cause it's kinda dumb .. the SNAP store only shows for a x64 download :\22:06
cooloutacI'm on lubuntu22:06
cooloutacbionic22:06
gogetacooloutac: it should be i see it22:06
cooloutachmm what am I doing wrong?22:07
Ubu-1604gogeta: there is a 'deb' and 'rpm' both x86 .. which should I download .. i really don't know the difference22:07
gogetacooloutac: do you have the partner repo enabled22:07
gogetaUbu-1604: deb22:07
cooloutacI saw thatonline.  but I don't have it listed22:07
cooloutacdidn'tknow how to enable it22:07
cooloutacI go to software and updates22:08
gogetacooloutac: https://help.ubuntu.com/stable/ubuntu-help/addremove-sources.html.en#canonical-partner22:08
Ubu-1604gogeta: thanks for helping here .. i needed to learn how to install software from a .deb file anyway .. ok got the file, now what?22:09
gogetaUbu-1604: you should just click on it and it open a installer22:09
Ubu-1604gogeta: just extract all of it from the arachive manager?22:10
gogetano22:10
gogetaUbu-1604: right click on it then and install with softhere center i think22:10
Ubu-1604gogeta: yes I didn't see that .. your right and the software installer shows it :)))22:11
Veus_unisorry net went again, and maybe see is the wrong word, basically if the user him self can not go out of his folder he can not cd out of his folder, basically something like jailroot for cpanel22:11
FManTropyxI wonder if I should abandon RHEL in favor of Ubuntu...22:12
naccFManTropyx: well, taht's totally up to you22:12
naccFManTropyx: although, if you're using RHEL, you're presumably paying for it and the service around it22:12
Veus_unii was rols maybe rbash?22:12
FManTropyxnah, it's CentOS22:13
naccFManTropyx: ok, well, that's not RHEL :)22:13
gogetaFManTropyx: its22:13
gogetaFManTropyx: thats personal prefrence22:13
Veus_unitold maybe rbash?22:13
xamithanRHEL is free for one license,  although that is kind of off-topic22:14
Veus_uninacc, is there jailshell for ubuntu or is that just a cpanel thing?22:16
naccVeus_uni: i don't know22:16
Veus_uniwhat about rbash?22:16
naccVeus_uni: what about it?22:17
scienteshow do i see all audio devices?22:17
Veus_uniwould that work for me22:17
scientescause my microphone shows up in dmesg, but not control-center?22:17
naccVeus_uni: i don't know, did you try? did you do any research yourself?22:17
naccVeus_uni: you may also want #ubuntu-server22:17
Veus_unii havent tried, i havet got my server up yet, i have looked about for help but dont get much info in what im wanting22:18
gogetaVeus_uni: its linux thers not a pakcage another distro does not have22:18
naccVeus_uni: because it doesn't seem like you've actually written down requirements, etc.22:18
gogetaVeus_uni: for the mst part22:19
gogetamost22:19
