[00:01] halsaq there is a more interesting program called screenshot. it's already in your computer I think.

[00:40] JFox762: ^^ willl need more info as to what you are doing . [00:41] JFox762: libudev0 is from Precise, trusty and later all use libudev1 [00:44] yes [00:44] libudev0 [00:44] apparently winetricks in proton needs it [00:44] ugh [00:46] what's Proton? o.O [00:48] teward: Proton is the fork of Wine which is built into the Steam game store/DRM client [00:49] ah. [00:49] the more you know :) [00:49] Kon-: then Steam did it wrong [00:49] Thing is [00:49] when I try to run... [00:49] WINEPREFIX=/home/jack/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/39150/pfx [00:50] hello gents, can someone tell me how I would add the i3 window manager to a gdm session? I think I have to append Exec=i3 and TryExec=i3 to /usr/share/xsessions/ubuntu.desktop? I took Exec=i3 and TryExec=i3 from i3.desktop config file. The motivation here is that i want to be able to run some applets from gnome3 instead of sticking to LightDM which is what an i3 default xsession goes with. Please advise [00:50] https://pastebin.com/vYDeyGYV [00:50] There [00:50] thats what happens [00:51] JFox762: #gamingonlinux might be better equipped for Wine questions [00:51] yeah [00:51] Im in there right now [00:51] why does ubuntu 1804 see only 3.5gb or ram when i have 4 [00:51] balsaq: are you using 32bit Ubuntu 18.04? [00:51] balsaq: are you on a 32 bit variant of ubuntu? [00:52] balsaq: if you are on a 32-bit variant 3.5GB is really the 'physical limit' of RAM consumability. 4GB or more needs a 64bit OS. Or PAE. [00:52] no i just checked it is 64bit [00:52] but in this case 64-bit is better :P [00:52] i have 64 bit [00:52] balsaq: uname -i shows x86_64? [00:52] system says 64bit [00:53] didn't ask what the *system* says [00:53] I'm the one who tells the system how many bits it has!! [00:53] that cmd says x86_64 [00:54] the system and the cmd say the same thing [00:54] duh [00:54] so why does it think i have 3.5 gb ram [00:54] maybe it takes .5 for graphics? [00:55] balsaq: if your system is not running a dedicated graphics card, it may take RAM from the physical amount to power graphics. [00:55] that'd be determined by the hardware and the BIOS/firmware though [00:55] wouldn't be surprised if it did reserve 512MB from the 4GB for graphics [00:55] it does not have a separate card only intel graphics [00:55] I have this recipe that is failing on launchpad. It is failing because my git submodule is not being properly initiated. Does anyone know what I need to change in order to have my git submodule properly initiated? https://launchpadlibrarian.net/394447786/buildlog_ubuntu-trusty-amd64.occwrapper_0.1.4.4-0ubuntu1ppa6~ubuntu14.04.1_BUILDING.txt.gz [00:56] Does this mean the AppArmor profile should be active now? "Skipping profile in /etc/apparmor.d/disable: usr.bin.firefox" [00:56] how can i determin where that other .5 gb ram went [00:56] Because Firefox isn't showing in apparmor_status === dingir___ is now known as dingir [00:59] balsaq: Linux counts your RAM a bit differently from the hardware manufacturer. An 8 GB machine will show 7.7 GB of RAM, for instance. There is no RAM missing. I think yours should be a bit higher, maybe 3.8 GB. But it's possible 300 MB or so is being used for video memory by the Intel GPU [01:00] well i recall my intel gpu as being 256mb when it was advertised years ago [01:00] theu still some ram missing [01:02] i am using 1.7 gb of ram just to run the os , the cpu is not even breathing...but it seems to like ram. [01:03] i only have 4gb and i see it made a 2gb swap [01:03] balsaq: sudo apt neofetch. Then run "neofetch" and it will show you the amount of RAM installed down to the MB [01:03] ok one sec [01:05] invalid operation [01:05] sudo apt install neofetch [01:05] is that a deb [01:06] or a snap? [01:06] Oops, forgot the "install" there :) [01:06] No, it's in the Ubuntu repo [01:06] ok [01:06] one sec [01:09] Memory: 1567MiB / 3617MiB [01:09] whats that mena [01:10] still doesnt add up [01:12] i think neo is trying to say im using 1567mb ram out of 3617mb ram [01:13] balsaq: Correct [01:13] So yeah, it looks like the system is only detecting 3.5 GB RAM [01:13] not good [01:13] even if system uses some for this or that it should see 4gb ram [01:13] Could you paste exactly what the "OS" line says in Neofetch? [01:14] Memory: 1567MiB / 3617MiB [01:14] No, that's Memory [01:14] I want "OS" [01:14] Up near the top [01:14] reeally dont believe me huh [01:14] OS: Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS x86_64 [01:15] Just making sure [01:15] something is wrong [01:16] luckily my hdd is an ssd so my swap file might not be too slow [01:17] nothing is wrong balsaq, but it's a very complicated issue. if your machine is working properly, just ignore the memory. memory management is one thing that linux excels at. [01:18] balsaq: show us "pastebinit <( dmesg )" --- kernel log will describe how memory has been distributed [01:18] my cpu is hardly even breathing but im half enpty on ram using nothing but this chat [01:19] balsaq: you can see how much memory is mapped for the iGPU with "sudo lspci -nnvvv -d ::0300" [01:19] oh cool thanks ill try that [01:21] I am trying to resize my filesystem for a plex server, and I am not sure what I did, but, somehow I made it a the partition an lvm, and I can't figure out how to extend it, as resize2fs is not working. https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/rtR9MBzGjV/ <- fdisk -l output === BgLamersTeam is now known as Dreaman [01:22] caliculk: what are you trying to resize? [01:22] I am trying to extend /dev/sda5 to become ~100GB larger [01:23] However, I don't have a GUI for this, and gparted cannot perform the function on the livecd. [01:24] caliculk: do you want do it the easy way? you don't need to resize sda5, what you want to do is grow the plex--vg-root LV [01:25] Easy way is fine. [01:25] I was under the impression that lvextend or resize2fs is the way to perform this, but I might bemissing something. [01:25] how does one use pastebinit? [01:26] nm [01:26] caliculk: you're correct, but there's a twist before those can be done [01:28] caliculk: there are 2 ways to do this: 1) use "parted /dev/sda resizepart 5 " followed by "sudo pvscan --cached" to tell LVM the partition is larger. That *should* automatically mean "sudo vgdisplay" shows the new free space, which *then* allows you to do lvextend [01:29] caliculk: or, you can create a new partition (sda6) that uses up that free space, make it a PV (sudo pvcreate /dev/sda6) then add it to the VG (sudo vgextend plex /dev/sda6) at which point you can use lvextend etc [01:32] TJ-, unfortunately the "easy way" did not work: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/rPXNKgRpJ5/ [01:34] caliculk: you need to specify the units are sectors, as in "parted /dev/sda unit s resizepart 5 243269631" (that'll take it to the end of the disk) [01:35] caliculk: and "pvscan --cache" ( no d on the end :) [01:36] caliculk: you may need to do a "kpartx -a /dev/sda" in between to tell the kernel the partition is larger [01:36] caliculk: which should then be reflected in "cat /proc/partitions" [01:40] Alright, sounds good, I will give that a shot [01:41] But unfortunately [01:41] root@plex:~# parted /dev/sda unit s resizepart 5 243269631 [01:41] Error: Can't have overlapping partitions. [01:41] Still displays the same error [01:42] If I knock it down by 1, so 243269630 I still experience the same thing [01:42] But, knocking it down by 100 seems to work. [01:43] Try knocking it down by numbers that are powers of 2. [01:43] 32, 64, 16. [01:47] caliculk: oh, it has to 1 less than the extended part, doh [01:47] caliculk: actually you had correct the 1st time; as the same as the end of sda2 (extended) [01:48] caliculk: sorry; been hacking for 18 hours, I think my brain has fried [01:48] No worries. :) [01:49] However, after running vgdisplay I don't see the additional space where I should be: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/rXnNKQWMVC/ [01:49] did you verify /proc/partitions shows the new size [01:50] https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/VMN8nQB5Th/ is the output of /proc/partitions [01:52] And when I ran kpartx I receive the following errors: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/ySs4pxrzpf/ [01:53] caliculk: so that shows the new size; what does "pvs" report? [01:54] I've got a Dell Optiplexx gx620 here that won't boot from the ubuntu dvd i burned the dvd is good i tested on this system and boot from it and ran unbuntu live. the optiplex will boot from the window disk the cd/dvd rom is at the top of the boot list any ideas as to what is going on? [01:56] TJ-, pvs, lvs, vgs: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/qzvRrNrzfh/ [01:57] caliculk: looks like pvscan --cache doesn't like to report an online resize [01:58] caliculk: ahhh, try "pvresize /dev/sda5" then "pvs" again [02:00] if my 'do-release-upgrade' bombed out due to package in-fighting, will a dist-upgrade and dpkg --configure -a be sufficient to recover? [02:01] Bluecoat: yes, if you can solve broken dependencies [02:01] Sweet, everything is good now. [02:01] Thanks TJ- [02:02] Actually, I take that back "/dev/mapper/plex--vg-root 14G 13G 99M 100% / [02:02] " [02:03] caliculk: well, you've got to "lvextend --resize2fs plex/vg-root" haven't you? [02:03] hahaha! [02:03] TJ-: cool. Two packages both claimed to own a particular package. I gave it to the one that had the least visually offensive package name, solving it once and for all! [02:03] caliculk: no '2'! "lvextend --resizefs plex/vg-root" [02:03] "particular file" [02:04] I'm still wrestling with cross-tools upgrade broken, for the last few weeks. most annoying [02:05] root@plex:~# lvextend --resizefs /dev/plex-vg/root [02:05] No command with matching syntax recognised. Run 'lvextend --help' for more information. [02:05] Er, like crosstool-NG is busted with Ubuntu latest? [02:06] hello ubuntu people. [02:06] I did do lvextend this way and it worked fine [02:06] lvextend -l 25600 /dev/plex-vg/root [02:06] Size of logical volume plex-vg/root changed from <13.52 GiB (3461 extents) to 100.00 GiB (25600 extents). [02:06] Logical volume plex-vg/root successfully resized. [02:07] Which I realize my goof there should have been a +25600 [02:07] caliculk: I generally use the "-L +xxG". Using "--resizefs" should call fsadmin to resize the file-system inside [02:08] caliculk: if it is an ext* file system you can use 'resize2fs /dev/mapper/VG-LV' [02:29] which one is suited for Power Mac G5 ? the 16.04 PowerPC or ppc64el ? === Dreaman is now known as BgLamersTeam [03:11] can someone advise on how to change the output sound device using alsa - via commandline (amixer utility, probably)?

It's ridiculously tedious, and it can take 20 minutes to configure one account for a lot of users. With a VNC solution I could just have the user enter my IP address for a reverse connection and then configure it remotely for them in 30 seconds. [04:30] Hi all. Does anyone know of a good media player that can play H.265 HEVC format videos *aside* from VLC, for Ubuntu? [04:30] TabMasher: You could try GPlayer. I think that's what it's called -- I'll check... [04:31] Thank you Randolf [04:31] It's called "mplayer." [04:31] I believe it uses ffmpeg, which is what VLC also uses, but that's more behind-the-scenes. [04:31] Ok, I will look into it. Thank you again. [04:43] okay, so im having some interesting happenings, on a thread ripper 2950x. when running an oc from bios and booting into ubuntu and checking the cpu clocks only one core is running at set frequency but on windows it works fine, any ideas [04:45] TabMasher: You're welcome.

For example I cannot shutdown using "shutdown -h 0", the command literally times out after about five minutes. [08:46] Think I am going to go back to 18.04, 18.10 is very unresponsive on my system, while 18.04 was rock solid. [08:46] squealingcode: keep in mind that 18.10 is a non-lts [08:46] squealingcode: also for real testing a clean install (as a test) would be reccomended [08:47] Absolutely, but now it's pretty much useless ;) I'll try a clean install, thanks for the tip. [08:48] squealingcode: does sudo halt -p, shutdown right away? [08:49] It does, but the "slowness" is kinda on and off. Five minutes ago I couldn't open the Terminal, it just stood there trying to load for several minutes. Now it worked great. [08:49] squealingcode: also reccomended is to predd F1 at shutdown, to see whats going on exactly you might see text based errors there [08:49] squealingcode: what hardware is this? [08:49] Ah, I wasn't aware of that. Thanks, lotus. [08:49] *press [08:50] it might be like systemd hanging on some service [08:50] It's an older 4th gen i5 and 1080 Ti.

[08:52] win10 in 10s [08:52] squealingcode, yes sir [08:52] I'll check that now, thanks. [08:52] squealingcode: investigate your systemd-analyze & systemd-analyze blame [08:53] Yep, thanks for the tip! [08:54] booting without quiet and splash can also be useful [08:55] squealingcode, anyway sudo shutdown -r now , should work as expected .............. [08:58] According to systemd-analyze blame the bootup process took just six seconds [08:58] But it took a good 2+ minutes before I saw the login prompt [09:00] Thanks for the help guys, luckily I took a clone of 18.04 before I upgraded, so I think I'm just going to restore as I need the system to be functional right now.

[13:50] ducasse my laptop not have a UEFI firmware as only traditional BIOS [13:50] the laptop is old 2008 [13:51] Guest77: then you need a bios boot partition to use gpt [13:53] so if I create LVM on LUKS manually,then let ubuntu isntaller install to it, would Ubuntu be smart enough to create Grub for encrypted drive ? [13:53] Guest77: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/BIOS_boot_partition [13:54] Having a weird issue. I have an 18.04.1 server. I pulled an extra NIC out of my server and took the opportunity to enable SMART in the BIOS for two new disks. When I rebooted, the machine hung when starting udev (won't respond to C-A-D, etc). I put the NIC back in, disabled SMART, and it still hangs at udev. If I perform a rescue boot, I can get the machine basically up and running by hand-starting services, but som [13:54] ething appears to be wrong with udev and systemd when it comes to disks. vgchange is stuck waiting for a udevcookie to go to zero. If I manually complete the cookie and hand-create symlinks, all of my LVM volumes are fine. The only thing I can't get working is to mount /boot, because systemd times out on the device. However, I can manually mount the device anywhere but /boot (say, /mnt/boot) and it works fine. Reall [13:54] y not loving systemd right now...
