BlackDalekanyone know how to find out my IP address in debian 9? I want to copy files to a debian machine from ubuntu across lan00:22
BlackDalekifconfig doesn't seem to exist on my debian machine00:22
blackflowBlackDalek: ip from iproute2 replced and deprecated ifconfig00:24
Bashing-ompsi7: Does not look from that log that the driver installed . as we are now at a black screnn .. try and boot to a TTY : http://www.linuxandubuntu.com/home/how-to-boot-into-linux-command-line .00:24
psi7Bashing-om, so i reboot and open tty?00:27
BlackDalekblackflow, thank you00:28
Bashing-ompsi7: Yes, but boot to the grub boot menu - 'e' key for edit mode and edit the linux line .00:28

psi7Bashing-om, i want to cry00:30
psi7Bashing-om, if i reboot we will close chat session00:30
mmerceroh hell.... maybe someone in ubuntu can think of something -- im configuring an sftp server, and of course using classic sftp-internal with chrooting....  now this works fine in most cases, however, because im doing match on group, it prevents users from being able to get shell (which is exactly what I want) -- however, i do have a couple of users that want to use rsync, so in the old days, we would simply00:31
mmercercreate a 'duplicate' user (unique name, same uid/gid), and you could login with that one since login should parse /etc/passwd...00:31
mmercerive gotten all of it configured, but when attempting to authenticate, im getting a pam access denied pre-auth, and cannot for the life of me figure out where/why00:31
sonicwindon my system, in order to use REISUB you need to modify /etc/sysctl.d/10-magic-sysrq.conf to a value of 1 from 176.00:31
Bashing-ompsi7: HUH ?? where does this black screen play into this now ?00:32
psi7Bashing-om, i am on my gui right know but when i start to reboot an the end after system logs out i get a black screen and i need to power off manually00:33
Bashing-ompsi7: Have you rebooted since installing the driver ?00:34
psi7no00:34
blackflowstochastix: well, I was told in #zfsonlinux it's considered experimental few months ago, and there still are some scary open issues involving native encryption, so I'd wait with that.00:34
psi7Bashing-om, no because i have this issue00:34
psi7Bashing-om, even if i use reboot or shutdown at the end i end up on a black screen00:34
Bashing-ompsi7: With the driver install, you should now have a GUI driver .00:35
psi7Bashing-om, let me reboot then00:35
Bashing-ompsi7: Yes, the driver will not take effect until the reboot .00:36
sonicwindtry typing Esc on that black screen and see if it shows you any details?00:36
Bashing-omsonicwind: we just got a vidie driver installed :P00:36

IkoIkomeh00:47
IkoIkoconstrutive criticism is healthy00:48
blackflowexcept this ain't constructive.00:49
IkoIkoit was00:49
blackflowconstructive is "oh, shi-! X is broken. here's what should be done to fix X".00:49
blackflowwith no alternative/solution suggestion, it's not constructive criticism.00:50
owl_techhello there comunity. greetings from spain. please, any idea about what tools you recomend to create augmented reality in ubuntu? good time for you!00:50
leftyfbIkoIko: regurgitating some rando comment on a bug as gospel and then making a generalized negative comment about the entire project, all the while posting from a completely different distro is quite the opposite of constructive00:50
IkoIkosimplistic crutructive criticism00:50
Bashing-omIkoIko: Funny I have never had an issue with nvidia: dpkg -l | grep -i nvidia >>  nvidia-driver-390                     390.67-0ubuntu1 .00:50
IkoIkothis is a serious regression in my opin01:03
sarpHello, I am having some trouble with my system, and I have asked about it on AskUbuntu as well, but couldn't figure out the solution. Would be glad if anybody have any ideas to try to solve it: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1047485/asus-g550-screen-goes-black-after-resume-from-suspend-even-though-the-system-is01:04
blackflowthere's always some regression, in some software, for some users/conditions, whenever something changes.  Pareto principle in action.01:04
IkoIkoPareto principle in action.??01:05
IkoIkooh never mind i get it01:05
leftyfbIkoIko: do you need help fixing the problem?01:09
IkoIkoim not sure it can be fixed, im all over lauchpad looking for solutions but theres nothing really working.01:09
leftyfbIkoIko: do you want help fixing the problem? As in, are you able to login to the machine in question and troubleshoot?01:10
IkoIkoi dont understand your quetion01:10
leftyfbIkoIko: This is a support channel where we help people with their ubuntu issues. Are you here to ask for help and troubleshoot the issue or not?01:11
IkoIkoapparently this is a fix here, https://github.com/matthieugras/Prime-Ubuntu-18.04 But i dont know how to impliment it.01:12
leftyfbIkoIko: that link gives step by step instructions. If you don't know how to follow step by step instructions, how do you expect to fix anything?01:13
IkoIkoi have learning disabilities01:13
blackflowThe third paragraph of the README.md being very important to understand.01:14
leftyfbIkoIko: and yet no problem with "constructive criticism"01:14
IkoIko*brother*01:14
IkoIkoNaturally, make sure you have git and git clone this repository. I dont know what that means.01:16
leftyfbIkoIko: the first result on google for "how to clone a git repository" brings up https://services.github.com/on-demand/github-cli/clone-repo-cli01:17

unclefooHow do I verify that my Ubuntu ISO hasn't been modified in transit?  releases.ubuntu.com isn't available over HTTPS and I don't see where Ubuntu advertises the public key I should use to validate SHA256SUMS.gpg01:23
GoopI literally had a spider crawling on my screen, and was wondering if it could be malware, if there's a physical spider in the monitor, or if it's something that the aport error thing does, because that was a window that was open.01:25
blackflowunclefoo: it's a box and link on the download page....  https://tutorials.ubuntu.com/tutorial/tutorial-how-to-verify-ubuntu#001:25
GoopWhen I hovered my cursor over it, I couldn't see the spider, so.01:25
GoopThe cursor was white.01:25
unclefooblackflow: So I am supposed to use the keys advertised in that tutorial; they aren't just examples?01:29
unclefoo0xFBB75451 0xEFE2109201:29
GoopSorry, I'm not trying to be a troll.01:29
leftyfb!ot | Goop01:30
ubottuGoop: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please register with NickServ (see /msg ubottu !register) and use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks!01:30
blackflowunclefoo: read step 4, it explains how you see the key fingerpritns and how you request keys from the server using them01:30
Goopleftyfb, it's related, I wanted to know if apport displays a spider.01:30
unclefooRight, but if the signature has been tampered with then I'll just request the bad guys keys.01:30
leftyfbGoop: now you're trolling01:30
unclefooUnless that key server is only available to Ubuntu devs or something?01:31
leftyfbunclefoo: if you think someone is messing with your transit to ubuntu.com, then no amount of checking checksums is going to help you01:31
unclefooHTTPS would work fine.01:32
unclefooAnd so will gpg signatures, if I know which public key to verify with.01:32
leftyfbunclefoo: except you just said "releases.ubuntu.com isn't available over HTTPS"01:32
unclefooAgreed.01:32
blackflowunclefoo: you're requesting the keys from keyserver.ubuntu.com. if those fingerprints have been tampered with, so must be the keyserver to serve them, and then all bets are off.01:33
unclefooblackflow: If an attacker is serving me a bad ISO and SHA256SUMS through my plaintext HTTP, then the fingerprints are going to be for the bad guys keys.01:33
IkoIkosudo make install make: *** No rule to make target 'install'.  Stop.01:34
unclefooI shouldn't have said "tamper".01:34
blackflowIkoIko: The third paragraph of the README.md being very important to understand.01:35
IkoIkowhat does it start with?01:36
blackflowIkoIko: "This is not for Ubuntu beginners. If things go wrong, ..."01:36
gogetablackflow: ummm01:37
leftyfbIkoIko: what does the 3rd paragraph start with? You don't know what a paragraph is?01:37
blackflowunclefoo: well I suppose you're right, without pre-shared keys it's rather a chicken and the egg problem. even https is broken in that regard.01:37
IkoIkoits all messed up01:37
unclefooblackflow: We have Certificate Authorities to "solve" the problem with HTTPS.01:37
blackflowunclefoo: we don't. CAs can be corrupt. CAs are corrupt. CAs are sometimes booted out of trust chains due to that. See: StartCom. See: Comodo breach. See: what-was-that-chinese-one-that-google-dropped. See: Symantec.01:38
unclefooSure so we're going to get DNSSEC and Certificate Transparency.01:38
blackflowCAs _cannot_ be truested. https is "good enough" to protect against a skiddie down the road, nothing else.01:39
unclefooAnd we also have HPKP.01:39
unclefooAnd I can manually pin keys for non-browser applications.01:39
blackflowyeah but it's still the chicken and the egg problem.01:39
unclefooNo?01:39
unclefooI see, because I don't have the root cert for the CA?01:39
unclefooAnd I have to trust the browser guys to give it to me?01:39
blackflowof course. you can also nuke the ca-certificates and be your own CA. the mechanism itself and DH kex is good (enough). it's the CAs that are bad apples.01:40
unclefooWith key pinning I can just trust a single CA.01:40
blackflowthat's the thing, you have to trust the CA has not given out your cert's private key somewhere01:40
unclefooOr like you are saying, prune most of the root certificates from my device.01:41
blackfloweven if you pin it, no guarantee the private key is not compromised.    a bit offtopic here though.01:41
unclefooWell, the CA might give out his own private key but he doesn't have mine.01:41
unclefooRight.01:41
unclefooSo more on topic, what do you currently do to verify your Ubuntu download hasn't been modified in-transit?01:41
blackflowmutliple mirrors.01:42
unclefooYou download from multiple mirrors, calculate all the checksums, then compare them?01:42
foounclefoo: I'm not sure there is room for the two of us in this world (Or at least this channel)01:42
leftyfbunclefoo: I don't assume someone has gone through the trouble of creating their own fork of ubuntu and are injecting it into my download stream the moment I'm downloading the iso01:43
unclefooWell, being the senior...01:43
blackflowa "solution" to broken CA problem is Moxie Marlinspike's convergency which basically states that instead of one CA, you have a peer network that verifies each other. so, multiple mirrors, over https, is significantly reducing the likelihood of compromise01:43
blackflowunclefoo: no just check the checksums from multiple mirrors.01:43
blackflowthe ISO itself I donwload once.01:43
unclefooblackflow: So I wonder, if there isn't a publicly announced Ubuntu public key how are these mirrors verifying the ISOs they get?01:44
unclefooWhatever the mirrors are doing to securely grab the ISO, I should just do the same thing.01:44
foounclefoo: I surrender. ;)01:44
unclefooleftyfb: What if attacker just leaves his MiTM online waiting for you to download something?01:45
blackflowunclefoo: or the mirrors are being pushed to, say rsync over ssh or something.01:45
unclefooAnd who says it's targetted only at you, but maybe everyone using your ISP.01:45
unclefooblackflow: good point.01:45
wrneed to setup dhcp isc-dhcp-server on ubuntu 16.04 server, what are best links for instructions?01:45
leftyfbunclefoo: Again, I don't assume such things until I have reason to assume such things01:45
unclefooIt's well established that bad guys are tampering with plaintext HTTP sessions.01:46
blackflowunclefoo: I will admit I don't know what they use in the background. at some point you either trust it's not compromised or youre 100% paranoid with absolute zero trust in the software..... or are 100% sure the ISO is correc but you run all that on a system with IME :)       (offtopic tho, so we better move this to #ubuntu-discuss if you want)01:46
leftyfbwr: sudo apt install isc-dhcp-server # and then read the documentation on isc-dhcp-server01:46
wrleftyfb, would it be https://help.ubuntu.com/community/isc-dhcp-server ?01:47
leftyfbunclefoo: show me where this scenario with iso's from ubuntu.com has been established01:47
unclefooI see, you don't think someone would specifically tamper with Ubuntu ISOs.01:47
blackflowgogeta: you wanted to object about something? :)01:48

bef848fWhich Ubuntu flavor would perform the best on an old PC with 1GB ram and some crappy 1 core processor from the medieval times? It's currently running on Windows XP and it sucks so much. I'd prefer XUbuntu, but not sure if it isn't too heavy if XP is too much10:13
Tin_manpuppy linux, bef848f10:14
Tin_manmaybe mint xfce10:15
bef848fIs mint xfce any different from XUbuntu in terms of performance?10:16
Tin_manI would say it's somewhat lighter, but been a long time, so hard to remember..10:17
ShabbysheikNo. LXDE might run better than xfce though. You could try Lubuntu10:18
Tin_mani ran mint for several years on old xp 1gb computers, ran fine.10:18
Tin_mani might be to big now days, haven't followed the specs, so you'd have to read up.10:19

rafaelrcenteioHi, I'm running Ubuntu 18.04 on Wayland. It's working great, except that my mouse scroll is behaving abnormally. When I try to scroll down, it sometimes scrolls up and vice-versa. I appreciate any help.12:39
lotuspsychjerafaelrcenteio: ah, do you have natural scrolling enabled?12:39
lotuspsychjerafaelrcenteio: check at your mouse settings to enable/disable this option12:40
rafaelrcenteiolotuspsychje: Thanks for the reply. I will check.12:40
rafaelrcenteiolotuspsychje: No, I don't have natural scrolling enabled.12:41
lotuspsychjerafaelrcenteio: try disable and check again?12:41
lotuspsychjerafaelrcenteio: i mean toggle on/off to see12:42
rafaelrcenteiolotuspsychje: same thing. Just to make sure If I expressed myself correctly. What happens is, when I'm scrolling down continually, it goes down, down, and suddenly, goes up, and then goes down again, etc.12:43
lotuspsychjerafaelrcenteio: ah thats something else..does it do that by itself?12:43
blackflowrafaelrcenteio: what does that?12:44

lotuspsychjerafaelrcenteio: ok, have you tested this in xorg, to make sure its really wayland?12:45
rafaelrcenteioYes. Actually, before on 17.10, this behaviour happened only on xorg. Now it happens both on xorg and Wayland.12:45

rafaelrcenteioblackflow: Picture someone simply scrolling down for 3 seconds. Instead of scrolling down the entire three seconds it will have moments of upwards scrolling. This happens across all applications, and that includes Gtk and Qt apps.12:49

hfpI have an issue with my terminal and I don't know how to troubleshoot it: sometimes when stopping vim with ctrl-z, it will break my display and just write the new output over the old output, instead of clearing the lines. I mean that if my window is full, it will type over what's already there from the first line instead of adding new lines from the bottom and scroll up what's already there. There is still a16:13

Another (potentially related) issue is when running jest (javascript test runner) in watch mode: jest has keys that you can type to trigger actions, but when I do type them it will output them on the screen rather than actually doing the matching action. I have a screenshot here: https://i.imgur.com/7GcbZOm.png -the "pfqa p q" shouldn't be there, it should have cleared the screen and16:13

naccNekrosBurek: ah and there's the problem16:40
naccNekrosBurek: the panel shipped it's *own* apache16:40
naccNekrosBurek: so, let's do this: `sudo apt-get remove apache2 zesle-apache24`16:40
NekrosBureki guess the mysql to16:40
naccNekrosBurek: then `sudo apt-get install apache2`16:41
blackflowNekrosBurek: what does grep -i zesle /var/lib/apt/lists/*Packages         say?16:41
blackflowcould be more stuff that needs removal16:41
leftyfbNekrosBurek: I would recommend not using a web panel to manage your server(s).16:41
naccblackflow: true, but i think the above should get apache there; i suppose w could just do a ppa-purge16:42
blackflownacc: if you say so, I'm not familiar wiht ppa tools and/or if there's a faster way to identify such "alien" packages and remove them16:42

leftyfbBadPractice: again, you cannot always assume that. You're not running Ubuntu. It's not appropriate to ask support questions about Gentoo in #ubuntu, regardless if you think they might be the same17:04
ash_worksiblackflow: so the vi that comes on 18.04 is a nerfed vim?17:04
blackflowash_worksi: yeup17:04
blackflowash_worksi: I mean it says right there "VIM - Vi IMproved"  when you start `vi`  ;)17:05
BadPracticeleftyfb, i asked in #ubuntu how a ubuntu default utillity app is called. Not related to gentoo.17:05
blackflowit's just that it's in vi compatibility mode, command-wise17:05
NekrosBurekZesle no17:06
ash_worksiblackflow: yes, and the funny thing is that it also says, on the same page, "type :help version8<enter> for version info" and then when you type it it says: E149: Sorry, no help for version817:07
blackflowash_worksi: right because default vi(m) is compiled for minimal, compatibility mode, features. you then install "vim" which pulls in vim-runtime which is additional features, and provides vim.tiny and vim.basic alternatives.17:08
blackflowI never understood that, I mean just include proper full vim in the base OS....17:08
ash_worksiyeah, well with minimal there should be, imo, some snippet about what you just said17:09
NekrosBurek<ioria> i need to go now ill be back later or tommorow thanks for such an amazing help from everyone17:09
ioriaok17:10
ash_worksiblackflow: so `apt install vim` will give you "full proper vim"... _along_ with tiny and basic? (ie you can start tiny or basic alternatives of vim?)17:10
blackflowash_worksi: yup17:11
notl33tenoughhey guys, do you know an alternative for cairo-dock? i got problems with cairo-dock on my 18.04LTS17:11
lotuspsychje!info docky | notl33tenough17:12
ubottunotl33tenough: docky (source: docky): Elegant, powerful, clean dock. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.2.1.1-1 (bionic), package size 609 kB, installed size 3329 kB17:12
blackflowash_worksi: vim.tiny is the "vi" compatibility mode afaik17:12
notl33tenoughthx guys17:12
blackflowash_worksi: right. vi is a symlink to vim.tiny through /etc/alternatives/vi   and vim is to vim.basic through /etc/alternatives/vim17:13
blackflow(both being vim 8.x actually, .tiny being with vi compat featureset)17:14
ash_worksiblackflow: so after `install vim`; then `vi` will still launch vim.tiny and `vim` will launch `vim.basic` ?17:15
blackflowash_worksi: exactly17:15
ash_worksiblackflow: and what about "full blown vim" ?17:15
compdoclotuspsychje, anybody, what is this little icon?  https://imgur.com/a/0Z9oGGR17:15
yeatsash_worksi: blackflow: /usr/bin/vi is a symlink to /etc/alternatives/vi, which will point to whatever you have chosen17:16
lotuspsychjecompdoc: ah, you might have apt problems17:16
lotuspsychjecompdoc: can you hastebin us the output of: sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade please?17:16
Dave_Elechow do i enable global dark theme on ubuntu 18.04?17:16
ash_worksiyeats: which in a default scenario, I'm guessing is vim.tiny?17:16
yeatsash_worksi: yes, by default, vim.tiny is what's there17:17
blackflowash_worksi: that's .basic actually. note there's also bindings for GUI thorugh vim-gtk and vim-gtk3 packages.  and if you build it from source there can also be various langauge bindigs like perl, python, etc... for really full full functionality, but I don't know if that's prepackaged on ubuntu17:17
Dave_Eleci have tried ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini17:17
blackflowyeats: yeah , I said that above17:17
ash_worksiI was about to say that :help version8 worked on `vi` post `install vim`17:17
blackflowyeats: however there's a difference between vi and vim in alternatives17:18
compdoclotuspsychje, All packages are up to date.17:18
blackflowyeats: it's not to alternate vi(m) iimplementation, its' for editors17:18
lotuspsychjecompdoc: no issues in apt?17:18
ash_worksiat some point I would like language support, but I will get to that later17:18
blackflowash_worksi: note that's not for syntax and stuff like that, it's for plugins and modules being written in those langs17:19
ioriacompdoc, i guess a broken dropbox icon17:19
ppfash_worksi: 'language support'17:20
ash_worksiblackflow: is that a "caution for when you do that" or a "there are multiple ways to skin that cat"17:20
yeatsblackflow: I was trying to make the point that ash_worksi's assumption that "vi" -> vim.tiny and "vim" -> vim.basic wasn't quite right17:20
ash_worksiyeats: duly noted :)17:20
ash_worksippf: ?17:20
ppfyes i was missing ?17:21
ppfwhat's language support17:21
ash_worksioh, I mean, at some point I would like vim to be capable of doing language specific things17:21
blackflowyeats: it's default though. Id' really NOT recommand change that default and create a maximum confusion where vim is vi and vi is vim. that's serious offence right there ;)17:21
ash_worksilike an IDE17:21
ash_worksibut I'm not really concerned with it now17:21
blackflowash_worksi: that's what I meant, that's not what "language bindings" are for vim17:22
ppfash_worksi: ah, right17:22
blackflowash_worksi: "IDE" is done through syntax highlighting and various autocomplete modules and all..    language bindings, eg python, means the modules themselves are written in python, regardless of what the modules do17:22
yeatsblackflow: not sure I understand, but it's not really important :-)17:22
ash_worksiblackflow: so it was a "just so you know, 'language bindings' (whatever that is) is not that"17:22
compdocioria, could be. I would just like to remove it, but cant without removing all the icons17:22
ash_worksioooh17:23
ash_worksineat17:23
ash_worksithanks for all that17:23
ppflanguage bindings are important, because you _really_ don't want to write in  vimscript ;)17:23
blackflowyeats: vi by defaut is symlink to /etc/alternatives/vi which is symlink to vim.tiny       vim by default is symlink to /etc/alternatives/vim whhich is symlink to vim.basic17:23
blackflowyeats: that's default, and yes it can be changed with update-altenatives for vi but not vim, and for editors.17:23
yeatsblackflow: okay, yeah we're on the same page then17:23
ash_worksibut but but17:23
blackflowash_worksi: hmmmm?17:24
ash_worksi`vi` (now that vim is installed) is now capable of :help version8 ... so _something_ about `vi` changed17:24
Deus402i have just added a pile of new drives to my system, and have successfully created two mdadm arrays, however, i cannot seem to get them to stick through reboot. here is what i have done, can anyone spot where i have messed up?17:24
Deus402https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/KmwsZCFKtW/17:24
blackflowash_worksi: full blown vim is pulled in I'd say, the vim-runtime and all.  vi is just a symlink anyway, so...17:25
blackflowash_worksi: so the extra files, helps and all became available17:25
ioriacompdoc, dropbox stop && dbus-launch dropbox start17:25
ash_worksiblackflow: so does that mean at this point vi == vim ?17:26
ash_worksi(the commands)17:26
blackflowash_worksi: I think it's still vim launched in compability mode17:26
blackflownote that it always WAS just ViM. except vi is compatibility mode command-wise, but it's ViM's code.17:26
blackflowconfusing? :))17:26
ash_worksito say the least17:27
yeatsash_worksi: the postinst for vim updates alternatives for vi and other variant commands to point to vim.basic if vim.basic is installed17:27
ash_worksiokay here's the important thing... how do I _check_ exactly what it is I'm using?17:27
compdocioria = genius. thanks!17:27
ppfsome things just don't work in vi as they do in vim17:27
blackflowash_worksi: okay, how about this.  it's ViM. but when you build ubuntu packages, you can vary the compile time options, mkay? so you're using the same codebase, but different compile time options. those are defining that vi, through vim.tiny will start vim codebase, but in compatibility mode.17:27
ash_worksiso that when someone tells me :execute '/' . @x I can tell them why it's not working17:27
ioriacompdoc, ok np17:27
ppfmouse handling for instance17:27
ppfbut that's just because vi switches these things of17:28
ppfit's still just vim17:28
blackflowash_worksi: compatibility mode means how certain key bindings are mapped and what it does. being ViM source code and all, it make sense that when you pull in full vim, various additional help files become available so vi, which is vim in compat mode, now has access to.17:28
ash_worksiblackflow: I see17:29
blackflowash_worksi: right so vim.tiny and vim.basic are build from teh same, VIM, codebase, with different compile time options and some other stuff methinks, but the point is, BOTH are VIM.17:29
ash_worksiso vim.<foo> describes what the program can do... vim.tiny could always show help, but without full, there were no help files to access17:30
blackflowI belive it's just tradition, and nothing else, that `vi` is present in the base installation and `vim` is something you install optionally.17:30
ash_worksithank you blackflow sensei17:30
blackflowash_worksi: exactly.  dpkg -L vim-runtime will show you those extra files that are installed17:30
* blackflow is a Vim Cultist. Survived the war with Church of Emacs. Has scars to prove.17:32
ash_worksisee, that's the kind of thing that scares me17:32
ash_worksithere is SOOOOOOO much to vim17:32
blackflowash_worksi: it has a steep learning curve, but once the muscle memory sets in, you become unrivaled demigod in how fast you can edit text.17:33
ash_worksiand if it by chance becomes deprecated, what did you learn all that for?17:33
ash_worksiI know, I've seen the magic before17:33
blackflowthe scars are in that you Ctrl-W and close a Firefox tab because muscle memory says ctrl-w switches the buffer  (shift-tab does in FF)17:33
blackflowyou edit Libreoffice docs with no vim bindings and you constantly hit ESC:w17:33
ash_worksiI always f'up ctrl+(shift)+C17:34
lotuspsychjeperhaps continue in #ubuntu-discuss ?17:34
ash_worksisorry17:34
ash_worksiI'll stop17:34
blackflowlotuspsychje: yup, yup. see, this brings back memories of the war..... :)17:34
lotuspsychjeash_worksi: join there, we all there17:34
* ash_worksi needs to get back to work anyway17:34
ash_worksithanks though, everyone17:34
blackflowash_worksi: just this: I don't think it'll ever be deprecated. it has very deep fanbase, and I see more and more programs having vim keybindings. its totally worth the time and effort to learn it.17:37
vadiAccording to lscpu, my MHz is at its minimum even though the temperature is fine and cpu governor is performance. I can't find anything weird in logs. What is going wrong?17:39
lotuspsychjevadi: can you tell us whats happening wrong in your system?17:39
ash_worksiblackflow: \m/17:39
blackflowvadi: why do you think anything is wrong at all? if you start a cpu intensive task, does it go up?17:39
vadiYeah, it's running slow and the cpu speed is at its minimum17:39
lotuspsychjevadi: define whats going slow please? wich ubuntu version?17:40
vadiIt does not go up when I start cpu-intensive tasks. 18.0417:40
lotuspsychjevadi: clean install or upgrade? wich graphics card/driver?17:41
vadiupgrade, intel/nvidia17:41
lotuspsychjevadi: from wich version?17:42
blackflowvadi: can you pastebin    lscpu  ?17:42
vadihttps://hastebin.com/lixafeyeha.makefile17:42
vadiI upgraded from the previous version, you can't skip versions17:43
lotuspsychjevadi: some users upgraded from 16.04 too, hence the question17:44
vadioh, okay17:45
blackflowvadi: what does   cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_driver     say?17:45
falahi all17:45
blackflowash_worksi: intel_pstate or something else?17:45
vadiintel_pstate17:45
lotuspsychjevadi: have you tested system speed with a 18.04 liveusb?17:45
blackflowoops vadi ^^^^17:45
falausually wifi reconnects after dropping.but sometimes it will show the wifi log in screen already filled in,waiting to press on connect after that a new connection will form with #2 after the duplicate ssid.17:45
vadiI did not test a liveusb.17:45
blackflowvadi: what cpuintensive task did you try, btw?17:46
vadiI set a bunch of while loops to run in terminals17:47
blackflowvadi: and also what does   cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor    say?17:47
lotuspsychjefala: details please, ubuntu version, wifi chipset and driver?17:47
vadiperformance17:47
vadiThe whole system is just running slow which is why I noticed17:47
vadiYet CPU temperature is fine (38)17:48
blackflowvadi: that'sa  bit weird then. please pastebin      grep . /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/*17:48
lotuspsychjevadi: did your system work well at 17.10?17:48
blackflowvadi: infact use   cpu*  instead of  cpu0   in that grep path please17:49
ash_worksiah17:49
* ash_worksi was confused17:49
blackflowash_worksi: sorry, I mistabbed17:49
vadiIt also worked well in 18.0417:49
lotuspsychjevadi: aha? when did things went wrong?17:49
vadiI don't know.17:50
vadiblackflow: https://hastebin.com/rurilikacu.makefile17:50
ash_worksi:)17:50
lotuspsychjevadi: could it have been after an update?17:50
vadiMaybe!17:50
vadiI do not pay attention to them and I have that livepatch enabled.17:50
notl33tenoughhey guys, where i can get more docklets for docky?17:50
blackflowvadi: somethings terribly wrong there. shows 6GHz as max freq? did you perchance try to overclock that thing somehow?17:51
vadiYeah, that's correct17:51
vadiIt's been that way for many months. Works ok.17:52
stan_man_can_Hey -- Is there any easy way to see how many requests per second my server is receiving?17:52
vadiThere's a giant aftermarket cooler on it...17:52
blackflowvadi: what is correct? 6GHz??17:52
vadiHey, it worked17:52
blackflowI think you burned that thing.... :)17:52
blackflowyeah,  ed. past tense.17:52
oerheks lolz, burn that cpu, slowly17:52
vadiDon't mind if that's the case but why is it still working then?17:52
stan_man_can_according to nginx i'm getting about 400rps sustained with bursts up to 600-700 but i'd be interested if there's any other way to kinda see it live17:53
falalotuspsychje: 16.04.4   .. driver=ath9k_htc  .. still looking for the chipset17:53
blackflowvadi: there's one thing you could try, try using cpufrequtils and try change it with that governor instead of intel pstate. I think you might need to reboot with  intel_pstate=disable    for that to work17:54
lotuspsychje!atheros | fala17:54
ubottufala: Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs17:54
blackflowvadi: and if that doesn't chage it, I'd say you've permanently fried that thing.  6GHz!17:54
lotuspsychjefala: to see whats wrong exactly: from a terminal: tail -f /var/log/syslog and play a bit with wifi to see usefull errors17:55
blackflowstan_man_can_: other than usnig nginx status stub?17:55
stan_man_can_blackflow: yeah17:56
stan_man_can_like is there a way to directly show connections to the machine or something17:56
blackflowstan_man_can_: apachetop should work with nginx log files, the format is I believe identical by default. If not, you could change the format, OR find an apachetop -like tool but for nginx.17:56
vadiI have a feeling a fried cpu should not work17:57
falalotuspsychje: tnx ,disconnection happens in long intervals,not that often,around 2x a day17:57
stan_man_can_blackflow: hm okay17:57
blackflowstan_man_can_: oh that... sure.  ss, netstat, ...17:57
stan_man_can_blackflow: i think i might have disabled nginx logs17:57
lotuspsychjefala: you could try another atheros driver/firmware perhaps17:57
stan_man_can_too much data17:57
blackflowstan_man_can_: well at that scale I don't blame you17:57
stan_man_can_yeah17:58
blackflowstan_man_can_: note that looking at raw socket states with ss or netstat, you'll see _FAR_ more of them due to transitional and wait states17:58
mohnish_What is the command to automatically install the appropriate drivers for my system?17:58
stan_man_can_it all runs on like a $40/m VPS so storage is a premium17:58
stan_man_can_blackflow: ahh nevermind then17:58
reactiv3Hi. A few days ago I was having problems with xrandr showing that my refresh rate is set to 60hz, while the true framerate of the monitor stayed capped at 50hz. The problem remains even after a o/s reinstall. A new weird discovery is that glxgears shows higher than 50hz on the first line, then drops back to 50hz. Output of glxgears and xrandr here: https://paste.ee/p/wgASI17:58
blackflowstan_man_can_: syslog + compression + large block size for nginx logs should help offsite those logs for archiving purposes tho'17:58
stan_man_can_yeah but we're literally talking about a billion requests a month17:59
blackflowstan_man_can_: they compress well, and with syslog you send them over network, dont' toouch local disks17:59
falalotuspsychje: nmcli networking off / on seems to work for me.. are you good at scripting?17:59
stan_man_can_TBH, logging slows it down too! so much activity17:59
mohnish_What is the command to automatically install the appropriate drivers for my system? Anyone please?17:59
reactiv3reactiv3, I only have this problem with the native resolution17:59
stan_man_can_blackflow: ohhh i gotcha17:59
stan_man_can_i'll look into it man thanks a ton!18:00
lotuspsychjemohnish_: ubuntu-drivers autoinstall18:00
blackflowstan_man_can_: yah, especially with nginx logging block size, I'd go with 64k or more18:00
mohnish_lotuspsychje: Sudo apt-get?18:00
lotuspsychjemohnish_: no18:00
mohnish_ubuntu-drivers autoinstall, that's it??18:01

mr_louI was once able to zoom a window in Nautilus, and it would increase the font size. This doesn't happen anymore. :-/18:52

BarnabasDKok you are still on the old version of ubuntu (which is fine if that is what you want)18:57
BarnabasDKno problem18:57
genewitch16.04 is LTS, in fact afaik 14.04 is still supported18:57
BarnabasDKsupport still18:57
BarnabasDKyes18:57
BarnabasDKno problem18:57
BarnabasDKmr_lou - your Ubuntu install is under support, and I do not have an answer - so - anyone?18:59
mr_lou:-)18:59
mr_louMaybe Nautilus is just using a font that doesn't magnify...19:00
BarnabasDKfirst things first ;-)19:00
Soul_Samplemr_lou: i don't remember ever seeing that behavior in nautilus19:01
mr_loumkay19:01
Soul_Samplewhen were you last able to do it?19:01
mr_louI just press CTRL and + to zoom my window.  Line hieght gets higher, but the font stays small.19:02
mr_louer... height even19:02
mr_louIt's been like that for ages.19:02
mr_louBut it worked long ago.19:02
BarnabasDKmr_lou and you are using a vector based font I hope?19:03
mr_louDunno...19:03
* mr_lou looks for font settings in Nautilus....19:03
BarnabasDKif it is bitmap it does not scale19:04

Lost_GoatHas anyone done a mail server before on their ubuntu server?19:09
BarnabasDKmr_lou, should be able to delve into the deeper parts of the user config of gnome19:09
BarnabasDKalso the font19:09
naccLost_Goat: you want #ubuntu-server, but also unless you really know what you're doing, you probably don't want to run your own mail server19:10
genewitchBarnabasDK, lotuspsychje: hitting escape realy fast in VNC while it was rebooting alowed me to get into the grub thing, i added console=ttyS0 and now i have a serial port19:10
mr_louAlright. Installed gnome-tweak-tool. Fonts are set to "Ubuntu", "Ubuntu Regular", "Sans Regular" and "Ubuntu Mono Regular"19:10
genewitchit looks like the installer didn't actually perform any updates, so i am doing that first19:10
Lost_Goatnacc: Im going to give it a try for some experiments but thanks for the tip19:10

asdfghioria, why?19:49
ioriaasdfgh, you cannot copy paste an iso19:49
asdfghioria, i mounted it and copied the files inside the .iso files19:49
asdfghwhy is this wrong ?19:49
ioriaasdfgh, use rufus19:49
ryuoasdfgh: because it doesn't setup the USB for booting. that can only work for UEFI mode, but that requires special formatting.19:50
ryuoasdfgh: As they said, use Rufus to prepare the stick.19:51
asdfghhmm ok my wrong i am installing that software19:51
ryuoThough, I haven't needed to format a USB stick in like 2 years, thanks to my Iodd2531. \o/19:52
hggdhasdfgh: boot devices have special partitions. When you copy & paste, you are doing this all under the existing filesystem, not the actual device19:52

ryuoTJ-: i doubt it. I also tried Arch recently just to see if it changed anything.20:03
ryuoSame behavior.20:03
TJ-ryuo: does it happen only with the GUI, or from a VT console too?20:03
ryuoTJ-: both.20:03
ryuoTJ-: i also tried other distros without systemd for comparison. the problem is the kernel reporting them as the same scan code.20:04
tonsofpcsioria / ryuo - more like the opposite of a delay - worked when I told it "Install" then quickly hopped to a different terminal.  When I tried answering a question or two first it didn't.20:04
TJ-ryuo: right, so you confirmed that, that is a positive step, so focus on the platform and/or input drivers20:04
ryuoTJ-: yea, but i'm out of ideas for now. I'm not much of a kernel hacker.20:05
TJ-ryuo: report a bug via b.k.o or the linux-input mailing list - the latter is likely to get more attention than bugzilla20:05

dunnousernamefnI'm trying to link with this library and the `gcc -D[super long chain of defines] -I[many directories] *.c` strategy isn't working20:25
dunnousernamefnIt's using some private include file that isn't in include/, but in src/, and it includes a bunch of c files I think so I end up destroying everything by doing that20:26
dunnousernamefnI can't compile without knowing the size of a struct, right?20:27
TJ-dunnousernamefn: That's what Makefiles are for!20:27
dunnousernamefnThis library doesn't even build any type of library except a .la20:28
dunnousernamefnI've tried running `make` and that's all it does20:28
dunnousernamefnTJ-, it's using this weird automake and autoconfigure, and it's really scary20:28
TJ-dunnousernamefn: .la is a libtool archive20:29
dunnousernamefnIt's not a static archive?20:29
dunnousernamefnIt also has some pkg-config file20:29
TJ-dunnousernamefn: that's a cross-platform description of the library; libtool can create the correct format of library (.DLL, .SO, etc.) based on the host (or target)20:30

blackflowDeus402: yeah, it doesn't see them, I wonder why, could be you have bad blocks somwhere, after all yo've got 5x greater probability of failure with that20:58
TJ-Deus402: my best guess is that because you didn't wipe the existing partition tables from those drives, that is causing a conflict. When they are seen the system may be doing something else with their content which causes mdadm to fail out, although they don't actually seem to disappear20:59
Deus402blackflow: mdadm --examine -> http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/P87GRgTYdX/21:00

Deus402TJ-: yes, it reports that but asks if i want to blow it away anyways, and then it works.21:06
blackflowDeus402: yeah that's not a valid array member. I'd recommend you zero superblocks, and then overwrite with some dd if=/dev/zero magick first and last GB of each drive (gpt backup is at the end)21:06
blackflowDeus402: but, if you're feeling adventurous, why not ZFS ;)21:07

snee_hello, i really need some help. there is nothing on google ive searched for hours. how on earth do i make a wireless pci adapter work with ubuntu 18.04 work?21:14
Deus402going to do the zero superblocks and write zeros to the drive thing, brb.21:14
TJ-ryuo: no, it uses metadata on-disk (it is using metadata v1.2 )21:14
snee_any help appreciated21:14
ryuook. i've never used a disk array this complex.21:14
blackflowryuo: I don't think so, it uses uuids21:14
ryuoso, i was wondering myself.21:14
blackflowDeus402: btw, any reason you don't want ot btrfs or zfs that thing? It's way easier and better than mdam, even if you stripe all the disks21:15
TJ-Deus402: e.g. "mdadm --zero-superblock --force /dev/sda"21:15
Deus402can i cheat and do the /sd[a-j] thing?21:15
TJ-Deus402: of course, that's the shell expanding those, not mdadm, so it ends up as a load of space-seperated full drive names21:16
snee_hello, i really need some help. there is nothing on google ive searched for hours. how on earth do i make a wireless pci adapter work with ubuntu 18.04?21:16
naccsnee_: don't just repeat your question, please21:16
snee_lspci doesnt show any kerne drive in use21:16
naccsnee_: what adapter, what have you tried, etc.21:16
ryuosnee_: paste output of this please: lspci -vnvn21:16
TJ-Deus402: e.g. you could equally do "echo /dev/sd[a-d,l]" to see the same effect21:16
snee_adapter is BCM4360221:16
Deus402https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/SJYDSRYsxj/21:17
ryuoUGh. Broadcom.21:17
naccyeah, just get a different one :)21:17
naccthat would be my honest first choice; but let's see what's out there21:17
ryuonacc: not necessarily an option.21:17
naccryuo: i know.21:17
snee_ryou the thing is i managed to get it working with this https://github.com/DH-Box/dh-usb/issues/8 but that gets reset after restart21:18
snee_how do i make it permanent21:18
blackflowDeus402: right, you can't cheat like that. that shell expansion  does multiple arguments, not multiple iterations of the command21:18
blackflowDeus402: for D in a b c d ; do mdadm --zero-superblock --force /dev/sd${D} ; done21:18
naccsnee_: that appears to be supported by the brcmfmac driver21:19
naccsnee_: https://wiki.debian.org/brcmfmac similar instructions should apply here21:19
Deus402blackflow: gives the same output if i just do one at a time...21:20
naccsnee_: the firmware is in the linux-firmware pacakge21:20
TJ-Deus402: so something definitely wrong there21:20
naccsnee_: have you tried loading that module?21:20
Deus402it's almost like mdadm isn't writing the superblock when it's created, so when i reboot it doesn't know wth to do....21:20
Deus402*when the raid is created21:20
TJ-Deus402: I'm wondering if the controller is putting the devices to sleep21:21
snee_nacc how? theres no docs for that21:21
snee_as in straighforward ones21:21
naccsnee_: `sudo modprobe brcmfmac`21:21
TJ-Deus402: your previous pastes show the metadata is there, and you mounted the devices too21:21
naccsnee_: not sure you need docs for that.21:21
snee_does that persist after restart21:22
ryuosnee_: are you sure that's how you "fix" t?21:22
naccsnee_: you need the '-extras' kernel pacakge21:22
ryuosnee_: No.21:22
naccsnee_: what doesn't persist?21:22
naccsnee_: are you saying if you simply load the module after you boot, the device works?21:22
TJ-Deus402: can you read the drives directly? "sudo dd if=/dev/sda count=16 | hexdump -C"21:23
snee_ah yes nacc, i have done what you said already. but if i restart my machine it stops wroking again21:23
naccsnee_: and again, if you then just load the module, it works?21:23
snee_yes it works21:23
snee_how do i persist it21:24
naccsnee_: add brcmfmac to /etc/modules and then run `update-initramfs -k all`21:24
naccand reboot21:24
Deus402TJ- https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/vXnfX95fgT/21:24
Deus402already started zeroing sda21:25
snee_nacc for a noob, could you please elaborate how i add brcmfmac to /etc/modules please?21:25
naccsnee_: it's a text file21:25
naccsnee_: add the string "brcmfmac" to the file21:25
blackflowDeus402: after you zero all the disks (imho first and last GB suffices), reboot just in case21:25
naccsnee_: on its own line21:25
TJ-Deus402: OK, so the disks are readable. That shows there's a GPT with an EFI system partition defined (which was why the original creation of the array warned about an existing partition table)21:27
snee_initramfs -k all throws a you must specify at leas one of -c, -u, -d21:27
snee_nacc21:27
naccsnee_: sorry, `sudo update-initramfs -u -k all`21:28
TJ-Deus402: is this Ubuntu 16.04 ?21:28
snee_tangentially, what is /boot/initrd.img-4********-generic?21:29
genewitchhttp://projectftm.com/#k-_bzocRM-BqrGIFF4bf4A completely fixed bionic with a serial console by running apt upgrade21:29
genewitchthat's it21:29
genewitchi was able to append "console=ttyS0" to the kernel command line by spamming the ESC key during boot in VNC21:30
Deus402tj- yeah, 16.04 lts21:31
snee_lol nacc didnt work21:31
naccsnee_: the initramfs for the corresponding kernel21:31
qwebirc13364test21:31
naccsnee_: oh sorry, it might have moved21:32
naccsnee_: try adding the same line to /etc/modules-load.d/modules.conf21:32
naccsnee_: run the update-initramfs command again and reboot21:33
ryuonacc: that's a symlink to /etc/modules21:33
naccryuo: ah so it is21:34
qwebirc12365Anyone have screen tearing fix?21:34
ryuonacc: plan B: maybe they should just use /etc/rc.local.21:34
naccsnee_: ok, then `sudo systemctl status systemd-modules-load.service`21:34
naccsnee_: and do you see in there that it inserted the module21:34
ryuoqwebirc12365: you need to be more specific if you want an answer.21:35
TJ-Deus402: it seems weird, but as the manual mdadm command failed, there must be some inconsistency in the metadata21:35
TJ-Deus402: hopefully doing the drive wipes will help21:35
snee_modeule brcmfmac is blacklisted21:35
snee_wtf21:36
ryuosnee_: that's done sometimes for problematic modules.21:36
naccsnee_: check /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist*21:36
snee_yep on it21:37
snee_picked a good wireless adapter didnt i21:37
snee_i wanted it for a hackintosh21:38
ryuosnee_: lol.21:38
qwebirc12365was getting help here just a while ago. He suggested i use compis or compton. I tried to get compton but im currently running into network issue. Right now i just wanna fix Nvidia Tearing with 1080p upscaled resolution then ill go try to fix other things21:38
TJ-the reason for the blacklist is usually to prevent conflict with SMAC (software media access control) as opposed to FMAC (full media access control) aka firmware or hardware MAC21:39
snee_alright nacc and ryuo got it working. thanks for your hel21:43
snee_p21:43
naccsnee_: yw21:43
Deus402tj- i'll be back after the drive wipes. trying to find the right magic so i don't have to zero the whole thing.21:44
qwebirc12365Whats the first step, fixing a screen tearing problem?21:48
qwebirc12365there's soo much around that none even worked =/21:48
ryuoqwebirc12365: try vsync or double buffering?21:49
Elliot404hi21:51
qwebirc12365xorg.conf is where those setting should be at right?21:51
ryuoqwebirc12365: there should be a nvidia settings utility.21:52
ryuoI haven't used their drivers in years, but they provided one for configuring these things.21:53
TJ-Deus402: "sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdX bs=16M count=1" for each drive and try "sudo mdadm --zero-superblock /dev/sdX" for each, rather than using shell expansions as you did before21:53
ryuoDeus402: why did you leave FreeBSD?21:54
Deus402got sick of things that wouldn't "just work"21:56
Deus402ryuo, you know, like software raid :/21:56
Deus402heh21:56
qwebirc12365nvidia gui doesnt really give me much options. none of the buffering is really an option21:56
ryuoDeus402: i never had much issue with mdadm, though i only used it for RAID1.21:57
Deus402tj- that is just wiping the beginning of the drive, didn't you say to wipe the end too?21:57
ryuoDeus402: if you get tired of playing with RAID0, you could give LVM a try.21:58
TJ-Deus402: no, I thnik blackflow did, but that isn't need if you can succesfully use --zero-superblock21:58
ryuoDeus402: http://www.linux-mag.com/id/7582/21:58
Deus402i cannot succesfully use --zero-superblock21:58
Deus402even individually21:58
TJ-Deus402: what does "sudo dmsetup info" report ?21:59
ryuoincidently RAID0/1 has multiple things that can replicate its basic features...22:00
TJ-Deus402: I'm beginning to think the SAS port expander could be an issue here. We know you can read the drives, it appears you can write them since they got metadata and file-system formatted22:00
ryuoLVM, mdadm, ZFS, BTRFS...22:00
Deus402TJ-: No devices found22:00
qwebirc12365okay, after reading few while. Poeple be suggestiong compton and compis. How do i approach?22:00
TJ-Deus402: OK, so nothing unexpected holding those devices, that is a good thing :)22:01
qwebirc12365i tried compton i get 404 error when trying to get package or something22:01
Deus402TJ- also, it was working just handily before i decided to add 5 more 8tb drives.22:01
Deus402the only other thing that changed was adding the second controller card.22:02
TJ-Deus402: thank-you! that kind of information is vital! So we know it did work, but multiple controllers causes a problem. So maybe there's an issue with the controller/driver config. I did notice some dmesg "cm1 reset" messages but they didn't appear problematic22:03
TJ-Deus402: did you move any drives from controller A to B at that time?22:04
qwebirc12365um how do i get compton?22:04
gogetaqwebirc12365: gnome 3 has a compositer22:04
qwebirc12365not sure what that mean22:05
gogetaqwebirc12365: you running 18.0422:05
qwebirc12365how do i check?22:05
Deus402TJ-, no, and also when my original raid0 disappeared i pulled the new controller back out and it was still gone, so i put the new controller back in and decided to just blow everything away instead of troubleshooting the old raid.22:06
gogetaqwebirc12365: lsb_release -a22:06

gogetaqwebirc12365: i run kubuntu22:13
qwebirc12365what is excatly it is?22:14
TJ-Deus402: for future reference you can do something like this to zap the last 16MB of a drive (this example 'echo's the command rather than executing it):  for D in a b c d e f g h i j l; do echo dd of=/dev/sd$D if=/dev/zero skip=$(echo "$(cat /sys/block/sd$D/size)-16384" | bc); done22:14

qwebirc12365ill tweak it and see where i get to22:18
gogetaqwebirc12365: you can play with what animations you whant22:19
Deus402TJ-: alright, here is where i'm at now: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/sSyyyMcPmy/22:20
qwebirc12365tearing is really bad tho, not sure how to tweak it22:20
gogetaqwebirc12365: i think thats a problwm with the nivida driver22:21
gogetaqwebirc12365: try passing this command nvidia-settings --assign CurrentMetaMode="nvidia-auto-select +0+0 { ForceCompositionPipeline = On }"22:22
qwebirc12365yea, i even used the driver from their site. Just gaved me lots of more GUI option but tearing was still there22:22
gogetaqwebirc12365: you screen should flicker and be inporved alot22:22
TJ-Deus402: I *think* "Unrecognised md component device" means there was no superblock found22:23
qwebirc12365Yes, this one fixes it22:23
qwebirc12365but22:23
qwebirc12365>.>22:23

Deus402TJ-: everything looks nice right now: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/WD3r5jjCnJ/22:24
TJ-Deus402: as before looking good; before creating the 2nd array, try a reboot22:24
gogetaqwebirc12365: can you just change that back22:24
qwebirc12365if i can replicate what i had back then in windows with xubuntu, id be soo happy, the tearing was just my problem when upscaling to 1080p22:24
qwebirc12365ill see if i can22:24
gogetaqwebirc12365: it should remane active untill you reboot22:25
gogetaqwebirc12365: so it should not be tearing now22:25
TJ-Deus402: don't forget to "sudo update-initramfs -u" before a reboot though, to copy in the new mdadm.conf22:26
qwebirc12365so that means22:26
qwebirc12365if i reboot everything should be gone22:26
gogetaqwebirc12365: it will just be back to tearing untill we make it perment22:26
qwebirc12365like all the work that is done right now, will be back to default setting22:26
qwebirc12365i see22:27
gogetaqwebirc12365: is it working fine now22:27
qwebirc12365can i make a .run file or something, everytime i start up os it'll be just that quick22:27
qwebirc12365working fine22:27

qwebirc12365okay ill take a look at that one. Thank you and to that other person. It was the same procedure that fixed the tearing. Lets see if i can make it easier22:30
Deus402and i did run update-initramfs -u again.22:30
Deus402rebooting now.22:30
TJ-Deus402: metadata looks good22:30
Deus402TJ-, doh, forgot to add to the fstab, but so far so good...22:35
gogetaqwebirc12365: once you add the mode to your config file its perment22:35
TJ-Deus402: that's a minor issue, the main issue is the array being found and assembled22:35
Deus402correct. now to build the second one.22:36
TJ-from the previous pastebins of the raw 'dd' output it looks like the metadata didn't get put on the disks, despite everything else we saw22:41

qwebirc12365can i unlock windows partition harddrive and start having linux folder there?23:51
qwebirc12365read only it said. i wonder if i can read and write23:51
texlaInvestigating using an enclosure with a 2.5 sata harddrive attached to a 3.0 usb port>I want to download and install Ubuntu 18.04 to this harddrive will I be able to partition etc as needed to use the drive23:53
guivercqwebirc12365, yes you can `mount` a windoze partition; and create folders/files there, but if it contains  'hibernated' windoze data it will only `mount` ro (read-only)  hibernate = fastboot on w1023:53
qwebirc12365it shouldnt have any windows system partition to it, its all download and stuff23:55
guiverctexla, yep as data drive; yep as bootable drive if your machine will boot from it  (hardware specific i believe; but a huge proportion of machines will)23:55
guivercqwebirc12365, if its data only then yep.   but w10 hibernate caches even data drives meaning they'll possibly mount as read-only if fast-boot is enabled (likewise older windoze; your setup will determine if it can be used rw or ro)23:57
texlaguiverc, I can boot usb's will that be the same process23:57
guiverctexla, i can't give a definite yes or no; but it looks like it would boot a hdd in my opinion in my experience23:58
qwebirc12365it is mounted but its read only23:58
qwebirc12365that means i can't?23:58
