| liamdawson | When I suspend my machine, if my bluetooth mouse is not connected, and Bluetooth is enabled, it wakes up from sleep immediately. | 00:15 |
| liamdawson | My thoughts on how to fix that is find a way to ensure Bluetooth is disabled when the computer suspends - doable and sensible? | 00:15 |
| banisterfiend | anyone here experienced with resolvconf? it's driving me nuts | 00:15 |
| rfm | banisterfiend, what's your question? | 00:22 |
| banisterfiend | rfm resolvconf man pages talks about specifying an IFACE.PROGNAM format when setting dnservers -- does that mean those dns servers are specific to that interface? or are they set globally for all interfaces? | 00:23 |
| banisterfiend | also what on god's name is the relationship between resolvconf and dnsmasq ? | 00:23 |
| rfm | banisterfiend, I believe that the IFACE,PROG identifies the interface going up or down, and the /etc/resolv.conf will be set according to whichever interface was brought up last. | 00:29 |
| banisterfiend | rfm so if i bring up a new interface (say a tunnel) are the dns servers for the old interface (i.e the real network card) still active? | 00:30 |
| rfm | banisterfiend, well, the servers are still active, but what you probably care is which servers dns queries are aimed at. | 00:32 |
| banisterfiend | rfm yes exactly, which servers are dns queries aimed at | 00:32 |
| banisterfiend | basically, if i bring up the tun interface but i don't set specific dns servers for it, i want the old dns servers (for the real adapter) to still be acdtive | 00:32 |
| rfm | banisterfiend, if the tunnel interface spec lists dns servers, I would expect them to override, but if it doesn't I would expect resolv.conf to leave them alone. You should be able to check by looking at /etc/resolv.conf after bringing up the tunnel. | 00:34 |
| banisterfiend | rfm i can't check by looking at /etc/resolv.conf because that stupid file just has: 127.0.1.1 in it :/ pointing at dnsmasq server | 00:34 |
| banisterfiend | god i hate linux sometimes | 00:39 |
| banisterfiend | it's all over the place with its configuration | 00:39 |
| rfm | banisterfiend, sounds like dnsmasq is in command there, and you need to do server config through it (and I can;t tell you how.) Do you really need dnsmasq? I always got along fine without it. | 00:45 |
| banisterfiend | rfm this is just how it's setup by default on ubuntu 16.04 :/ | 00:46 |
| rfm | banisterfiend, but then I run a cache-only bind9 server on my local net... | 00:46 |
| banisterfiend | i can't change it as i'm working on a program that has to work with default 16.04 installs for users | 00:46 |
| rfm | banisterfiend, it totally changes in 18.04 y'know. I no longer have a default 16.04 install to check, but didn't it use NetworkManager? (Or are these ubuntu server installs, which didn't.) | 00:48 |
| slingamn | i just did an package upgrade that included secureboot-db and i got some disturbing-looking errors: | 00:48 |
| slingamn | Inserting key update /usr/share/secureboot/updates/dbx/MS-2016-08-08.bin into dbx | 00:48 |
| slingamn | Error writing key update: Invalid argument | 00:48 |
| slingamn | Error syncing keystore file /usr/share/secureboot/updates/dbx/MS-2016-08-08.bin | 00:48 |
| tomreyn | slingamn: what'S the output of "mount | grep -i efi" | 00:57 |
| slingamn | efivarfs on /sys/firmware/efi/efivars type efivarfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime) | 00:57 |
| slingamn | /dev/sda1 on /boot/efi type vfat (rw,relatime,fmask=0077,dmask=0077,codepage=437,iocharset=iso8859-1,shortname=mixed,errors=remount-ro) | 00:57 |
| tomreyn | okay, you have them mounted so my guess was wrong | 00:58 |
| slingamn | this invalid argument thing is a weird error, i googled it but the only hit was in chinese and autotranslate didn't help much | 00:58 |
| tomreyn | slingamn: i guess i would try re-running the command manually with a more verbose output | 00:58 |
| slingamn | i'm not sure what the command is, it's probably the post-install script for secureboot-db? | 00:59 |
| banisterfiend | rfm honestly i'd love a huge diagram that detailed the relationship between NetworkManager, resovconf, dnsmasq and also NetworkManager and systemd-resolve | 00:59 |
| banisterfiend | it all seems so fiddly | 00:59 |
| tomreyn | slingamn: i would think so | 00:59 |
| slingamn | haha agreed | 00:59 |
| slingamn | does dpkg-reconfigure rerun those? | 01:01 |
| tomreyn | no idea, worth a try, i guess | 01:02 |
| tomreyn | here's an example of what the output looks if run successfully: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/GJWx9QXrjz/ | 01:02 |
| slingamn | thanks --- that's from `apt-get upgrade`, right, not dpkg-reconfigure? | 01:03 |
| tomreyn | correct, the former | 01:03 |
| slingamn | interesting: https://blog.hansenpartnership.com/the-meaning-of-all-the-uefi-keys/ | 01:05 |
| slingamn | honestly if this isn't going to render my system unbootable, i might just ignore it | 01:05 |
| qwebirc84848 | Hey, I'm a total newbie and I just installed Ubuntu 18.04 on my MacBook Air, I can't get the wifi to work. What should I install or do to fix it? | 01:05 |
| tomreyn | slingamn: here's a bug report about 'permission denied' (so not 'invalid argument', but maybe you had this, too): https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/secureboot-db/+bug/1800750 | 01:05 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1800750 in secureboot-db (Ubuntu) "Error message during upgrade: "Error writing key update: Permission denied"" [Undecided,Incomplete] | 01:05 |
| slingamn | that's interesting | 01:06 |
| tomreyn | slingamn: do you have secureboot enabled? | 01:06 |
| slingamn | i...don't think so | 01:06 |
| slingamn | is there a way to check on a running system? | 01:06 |
| slingamn | heh, dmesg on both of my systems (including the one that successfully updated the package) says: | 01:07 |
| slingamn | [ 0.000000] secureboot: Secure boot could not be determined (mode 0) | 01:07 |
| tomreyn | slingamn: that's disabled. you can also check with: bootctl | grep 'Secure Boot' | 01:08 |
| Bashing-om | slingamn: Maybe ' mokutil --sb-state ' too ?? | 01:08 |
| slingamn | legit, thanks, `bootctl` says "disabled" on both systems | 01:08 |
| tomreyn | so it doesn't matter until you'll enable it. but it'd still be good to report a bug. | 01:09 |
| slingamn | legit, thanks | 01:09 |

| lotuspsychje | astra`: explain the whole story please | 04:05 |
| astra` | it updated this morning | 04:05 |
| astra` | then just it started rebooting randomly | 04:06 |
| astra` | now it reboots over and over | 04:06 |
| lotuspsychje | astra`: can you check dpkg logs what it updated exactly | 04:06 |
| astra` | i cant | 04:07 |
| astra` | it keeps rebooting | 04:07 |
| abrahams | a | 04:07 |
| astra` | it doesn't let me stay on too long before it reboots again | 04:07 |
| astra` | since that last update | 04:07 |
| lotuspsychje | astra`: how about a previous kernel boot, does that bypass? | 04:07 |
| astra` | no | 04:08 |
| astra` | its rebooting again | 04:08 |
| lotuspsychje | astra`: at wich point exactly | 04:09 |
| astra` | when i'm about to type on terminal | 04:09 |
| astra` | it gives me less then 3 minutes or so | 04:09 |
| lotuspsychje | astra`: can you try to enter a tty before GUI login | 04:09 |
| astra` | where? | 04:10 |
| lotuspsychje | astra`: alt ctrl F1 | 04:10 |
| lotuspsychje | astra`: when booting systemd, before you enter gdm login window | 04:10 |
| lotuspsychje | astra`: i would also reccomend to press F1 for textbooting when systemd starts, perhaps we can catch usefull errors aswell | 04:11 |
| astra` | it just keeps rebooting | 04:19 |
| astra` | seems the packages were corrupted | 04:19 |
| lotuspsychje | astra`: aww thats not good | 04:19 |
| lotuspsychje | astra`: do you use external ppa's of any kind? | 04:19 |

| astra` | i explicitly stated my issue already | 04:29 |
| astra` | the system broke after the last ubuntu 18.04 | 04:29 |

| sumyunseal | Omg Newegg is trying to give me a power supply for free | 05:06 |
| sumyunseal | As a gift | 05:06 |
| sumyunseal | MKUltraMagnus, yeah the ports are like all diff kinds | 05:07 |
| sumyunseal | Which is strange | 05:07 |
| sumyunseal | Im not sure the diff ports can do 4k@60 | 05:09 |
| MKUltraMagnus | yeah that might be more of a problem, it'll depend on the card / drivers as to which ports you can use at the same time | 05:09 |
| sumyunseal | Y the fuk is this still a problem lol | 05:09 |
| sumyunseal | There is a card for sale at 2000$ | 05:10 |
| sumyunseal | wooooooooooot | 05:10 |
| MKUltraMagnus | poke around the support for whatever brand card you're looking at and see if they list a supported max resolution | 05:11 |
| MKUltraMagnus | 4k x3 is 11520 x 2160, thats going to be a bit of struggle for cheap cards | 05:13 |
| sumyunseal | I was going for SLI too a while back and now its being phased out so now I can't even pair my card coz that one isn't even sold | 05:14 |
| MKUltraMagnus | lol looks like even a 1080ti only does two 4k screens | 05:15 |
| MKUltraMagnus | so yeah without something external you might need two cards for it | 05:15 |
| lotuspsychje | guys keep it ubuntu related please | 05:15 |
| sumyunseal | What where did u see that | 05:16 |
| sumyunseal | MKUltraMagnus, u know actually a more brilliant idea wud be to just have a tv instead at more than 4k | 05:25 |
| sumyunseal | 12k? | 05:26 |
| MKUltraMagnus | a 12k television would cost you more than the price of the extra video cards | 05:28 |

| Yorick_ | Hey. I've got an issue with gnome-terminal within Ubuntu. When I'd open tmux or vim; there is some spacing at the bottom and the right of the application . Is there a way to get these applications completely full screen? | 08:18 |
| === capellaLugosi is now known as capella|away | ||
| lotuspsychje | Yorick_: perhaps take a screenshot of that, volunteers might have a look for you? | 08:25 |
| Yorick_ | okay, moment | 08:26 |
| Yorick_ | https://ibb.co/msPBnf | 08:29 |
| lotuspsychje | Yorick_: wich ubuntu release is this? | 08:30 |
| Yorick_ | 18.04.1 | 08:31 |
| Yorick_ | installed it yesterday | 08:31 |
| Yorick_ | worked also fine at the beginning. after an update + reboot it seems not to work correctly anymore | 08:31 |
| lotuspsychje | Yorick_: seems inside purple background you can see around | 08:31 |
| tachikomas | can you pastebin your apt log ? | 08:32 |
| Yorick_ | the purple background is the gnume terminal | 08:32 |
| tachikomas | We can see like this what was insalled and can cause that conflict | 08:32 |
| lotuspsychje | good idea tachikomas | 08:33 |
| Yorick_ | this one?: /var/log/apt/history.log | 08:34 |
| tachikomas | yep | 08:35 |
| Yorick_ | https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/t92SDSjrdB/ | 08:36 |
| lotuspsychje | Yorick_: are you in i3? | 08:38 |
| Yorick_ | yes | 08:39 |
| tachikomas | gnome-terminal should work in i3 (just tryed it). | 08:39 |
| lotuspsychje | ducasse: can you take a look at his terminal https://ibb.co/msPBnf Yorick_ | 08:40 |
| tachikomas | Yorick_, are you using a composer ? | 08:40 |
| AuroraAvenue | Crush-day Does Anybody here know of an Open source or free software taxi depatch system that I can see the code ? | 08:41 |
| Yorick_ | i used the default apt package manager. No composer | 08:41 |
| AuroraAvenue | Mornin, willcooke :) | 08:42 |
| elias_a | AuroraAvenue: Define taxi depatch system. | 08:42 |
| ryuo | a system that depatches taxies? that'd be a sight. =) | 08:42 |
| ryuo | Probably looking for "dispatch". | 08:43 |
| AuroraAvenue | the thing that a taxi company, uses for land lines (not Apps) - so organise the despatch of taxi's around the town - in the taxi base. | 08:43 |
| AuroraAvenue | sans/ so/to | 08:43 |
| tachikomas | Yorick_, do you use i3 on xorg ? or on wayland ? | 08:44 |
| tachikomas | Yorick_, if you go on Gnome, do you have the same issue ? | 08:45 |
| AuroraAvenue | back in five minutes - hiccups. | 08:46 |
| lotuspsychje | AuroraAvenue: libretaxi.org | 08:46 |
| AuroraAvenue | Oh thanks cheers lotus *!* | 08:46 |
| Yorick_ | xorg | 08:46 |
| Yorick_ | uhm i have to logout, to test that. One moment | 08:47 |
| AuroraAvenue | ait - that an app - I was talking about the operators phone and taxi despatch itself - no apps thank-you | 08:47 |
| AuroraAvenue | I shall take 10 minutes out. | 08:48 |
| lotuspsychje | AuroraAvenue: think your best bet will be taxi dispatch in the cloud | 08:51 |
| astra` | i cant get the logs | 08:53 |
| astra` | it keep rebooting nonstop | 08:53 |
| astra` | keeps* | 08:53 |
| lotuspsychje | astra`: did you try booting a previous kernel | 08:54 |
| willcooke | hi AuroraAvenue | 08:55 |
| tachikomas | astra`, try to boot without splash/quiet | 08:55 |
| lotuspsychje | astra`: try a liveusb ubuntu, and see if your system reboots there too | 08:55 |
| astra` | i tried but it reboots in the middle of it | 08:56 |
| lotuspsychje | astra`: try a liveusb to closeout a hardware issue | 08:56 |
| astra` | i tried the liveusb but the system keeps rebooting | 08:58 |
| astra` | the last update messed up smth | 08:58 |
| lotuspsychje | astra`: if the system reboots during a liveusb it means its a hardware problem | 09:00 |
| astra` | i just built this machine a few months ago | 09:02 |
| astra` | how is that possible? | 09:02 |
| lotuspsychje | astra`: doublecheck everything, like perhaps PSU or CPU issues that could make your system reboot? | 09:02 |
| lotuspsychje | astra`: go into bios, check a few things, temp monitor | 09:02 |
| astra` | cpu temp is 27c | 09:04 |
| lotuspsychje | astra`: try to boot into your desktop and run command= tail -f /var/log/syslog and watch errors till it freeze | 09:06 |
| AuroraAvenue | no-boday really wants to talk 'cos of wimters. | 09:08 |
| astra` | it keeps rebooting | 09:08 |
| astra` | even when in bios | 09:08 |
| lotuspsychje | astra`: join ##hardware and ask what this problem could be | 09:09 |
| lotuspsychje | astra`: without details its hard to troubleshoot | 09:09 |
| AuroraAvenue | is a hp laptop ? where is it here ? https://h-node.org/hardware/catalogue/en | 09:09 |
| lotuspsychje | AuroraAvenue: only ubuntu issues here please | 09:10 |
| lotuspsychje | AuroraAvenue: use #ubuntu-offtopic for other general chatting | 09:10 |

| tichun | Fedora 29 uses ClearType, should I do something to get that on ubuntu 18.04? Fonts are nice, but sure something could be made about them. Isn't ubuntu already using that? | 09:11 |
| lotuspsychje | !fonts | tichun can this help? | 09:11 |
| ubottu | tichun can this help?: Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "ttf-mscorefonts-installer" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". For the official ubuntu font, see: http://font.ubuntu.com/ | 09:11 |
| tichun | lotuspsychje: I think it might be a new thing to enable due to microsoft allowing linux projects to use its patents or sth | 09:13 |
| lotuspsychje | tichun: check this settings in dconf-editor perhaps? org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.xsettings antialiasing 'rgba' | 09:15 |

| Zborg | I have a usb drive that I can't mount in linux (there is no /dev/sdb1) and fdisk gives a messed up partition table but both windows and parted see the partition just fine | 09:46 |
| lotuspsychje | Zborg: backup data first and re-format with gparted? | 09:47 |
| Zborg | yeah | 09:56 |
| Zborg | that did it, though I have no idea why parted and windows would be fine but it wouldn't work either with fdisk or show up for mounting | 09:57 |

| lemmoner | having a hard time trying to restore grub in an UEFI system | 11:05 |
| lemmoner | any effective how-to help out there? | 11:05 |
| lotuspsychje | EriC^^: one for you :p | 11:06 |
| rnat | lemmoner: What error messages are you being confronted with? | 11:11 |
| rnat | and why are you restoring grub ? What took you to that point? | 11:12 |
| lemmoner | rnat, I installed windows 10 as a 2nd OS in a system with ubuntu/elementary already installed | 11:15 |
| rnat | So windows bootloader has overwritten your bootable partition and you can boot anymore into ubuntu? | 11:16 |
| lemmoner | following some tutorials, I've booted with live-cd, and try to reconfigure grub by using chroot | 11:16 |
| lemmoner | exactly | 11:16 |
| conjo | what did you do in terminal | 11:17 |
| rnat | can you post the output for parted -l and efibootmgr -v | 11:17 |
| rnat | after chroot | 11:18 |
| ryuo | lemmoner: for future reference, they usually suggest installing Windows first in a dual boot setup. | 11:19 |

| rnat | ryuo: Irrespective of installtion order in some systems grub overwrites efi variables and protective MBR thus not enabling you to boot windows post linux installation | 11:20 |
| ryuo | rnat: i see. maybe that advice was more relevant to the BIOS era. | 11:21 |
| lemmoner | https://pastebin.com/PV57xmY2 | 11:22 |
| EriC^^ | lemmoner: can you pastebin the output of "sudo efibootmgr -v" | 11:23 |
| rnat | lemmoner: good news is that Your efi variables are intact, needs a minor tweak.. you need to change the boot order | 11:23 |
| EriC^^ | youdont need to reinstall grub, just put ubuntu's uefi entry before windows | 11:23 |
| EriC^^ | lemmoner: sudo efibootmgr -o 0000,0001,0006,0007,0008,0005 | 11:24 |
| lemmoner | https://pastebin.com/HS7PL1mS | 11:25 |
| rnat | after changing the boot order like EriC^^ mentioned, add an entry point in grub to load Windows 10 | 11:25 |
| EriC^^ | lemmoner: yeah run the command above as rnat suggestd | 11:26 |
| EriC^^ | good point, once you boot into ubuntu run "sudo update-grub" and it should pick up windows | 11:26 |
| lemmoner | big thanks to both! | 11:27 |
| lemmoner | i usually didn't mess around with OS order (always stick to windows first), but not always you can anticipate it | 11:27 |
| astra` | i think there was smth about 'acpi error' on the log iirc | 11:29 |
| lemmoner | this will ultimately allow me to forget about W10, knowing that I can install it in any order without much problem | 11:30 |
| rnat | nada Windows is an aggressive OS, it is know to do stupid things like formatting or creating a ESP partition | 11:31 |
| rnat | known* | 11:32 |
| Barabacha | why are virtual consoles not available in my Ubuntu? :( | 11:44 |
| Barabacha | I press Ctrl + Alt + F1-F5 and nothing happens | 11:44 |
| EriC^^ | Barabacha: maybe you need to press Fn as well | 11:48 |
| Barabacha | EriC^^: I'm not on a laptop lol | 11:50 |
| EriC^^ | no worries, some keyboards have fn too btw | 11:51 |
| lemmoner | rnat, Eric^^, it worked without a hassle :) | 11:57 |
| astra` | i wonder if anyone knows about acpi errors/kernel issues | 12:01 |

| multifractal | I can find plenty of tutorials for making a Ubuntu bootable USB installer from within a Mac environment. But I want the opposite - I have the High Sierra .iso file and I'd like to make a bootable USB from within my Ubuntu 16.04 environment. In startup disk creator, it doesn't allow me to choose the HighSierra.iso file. | 13:14 |
| WoC | try etcher | 13:14 |
| lotuspsychje | multifractal: the disc creator is for ubuntu iso's | 13:14 |
| WoC | multifractal, did you try dd already? | 13:15 |
| tachikomas | multifractal, why dont restart your mac from the online recovery ? | 13:16 |
| multifractal | WoC - I was hoping to use that as a last resort (in case I accidentally overwrite my hard drive or something...) Also I understand the USB needs to be converted to the OSX Journaled scheme? | 13:16 |
| multifractal | tachikomas: not an option | 13:16 |
| WoC | tried etcher ? | 13:16 |
| multifractal | WoC: Nope I'm getting it now. | 13:16 |
| WoC | k, gl, i dont know any of the osx journal thing, i ran Linux on my iMac ;) | 13:17 |
| multifractal | WoC: In any case, is it as simple as dding the .iso file into /dev/sdb? Does there need to be some kind of master boot record written at the beginning? | 13:18 |
| lotuspsychje | multifractal: i would also do the recovery tachikomas suggests | 13:18 |
| multifractal | lotuspsychje: Well actually I need to wipe a mac and downgrade it to High Sierra from the later one. | 13:18 |
| WoC | It's as easy as selecting iso (gui) and select usb device and 'go' | 13:19 |
| WoC | targets will be listed | 13:19 |
| WoC | imho; etcher rules :) | 13:20 |
| multifractal | Etcher said my .iso file is not bootable :( | 13:20 |
| WoC | try anyway, says that too for any *BSD | 13:21 |
| WoC | is the mac intel or ppc? | 13:21 |
| tachikomas | multifractal, when you do a online recover, you download the FIRST os your mac was shipped with. | 13:22 |
| tachikomas | not the latest | 13:22 |
| tachikomas | you should give it a try | 13:22 |
| lotuspsychje | +1 tachikomas | 13:22 |
| multifractal | WoC: intel | 13:23 |
| multifractal | lotuspsychje: I will bear this in mind, thanks. | 13:23 |
| WoC | k, just checking, try it. if it fails go with that recovery suggestion from tachikomas | 13:23 |
| multifractal | IIRC the target computer doesn't have a recovery partition. | 13:25 |
| tachikomas | you dont need it. | 13:25 |
| tachikomas | you can download and recreate a recovery from the uefi. | 13:26 |
| WoC | neat | 13:27 |
| lotuspsychje | multifractal: see also the #mac channel if you run into troubles, like wiping previous install from HD with the disk tools | 13:28 |
| multifractal | FYI - Etcher worked successfully to create the High Sierra bootable stick from the .iso | 13:34 |
| ayrus | Hi, in Ubuntu 18.04 nginx-extras - set more headers and geoip seems not working with nginx 1.14. I have installed default nginx and nginx-extras using apt. Am I doing something wrong? | 13:40 |
| kur1j | Hello, I'm having some trouble installing 16.04.2, .3, .4, .5 on a Dell Precision 5820 with a GTX 1080, get errors stating "[33.192238] nouveau 0000:05:00.0: DRM: base-0: timeout" and it never boots. However, 16.04.1 installs without a problem. | 13:45 |
| kur1j | Unforutnately 16.04.1 doesn't contain the correct drivers for the Intel I219 network card. | 13:46 |
| lotuspsychje | kur1j: with an nvidia card of that chipset its reccomended you install the proper nvidia drivers | 13:46 |
| kur1j | lotuspsychje: how do you install the Nvidia drivers when it won't even boot? | 13:47 |
| kur1j | I've already tried doing the whole "nomodeset" and it still won't boot | 13:47 |
| lotuspsychje | kur1j: first we try to enter with !nomodeset | 13:47 |
| lotuspsychje | kur1j: or recoverymode or tty | 13:48 |
| kur1j | lotuspsychje: yup, already tried that, I get a "failed to start Ubuntu Installation Service, please run journalctl to see what failed". | 13:48 |
| kur1j | lotuspsychje: how do you do that? | 13:48 |
| lotuspsychje | kur1j: are you sure no nvidia driver is installed of nouveau? | 13:48 |
| kur1j | lotuspsychje: so thats whats weird...this SAME EXACT image works with this same exact card in a Dell Precision 7910 | 13:49 |
| kur1j | 16.04.1 works...0 problems, I get video correctly, no error messages, I go through the Deskstop Ubuntu 16.04.1 install perfectly fine (less the NIC driver). | 13:50 |
| kur1j | try it with 16.04.5 no dice, get the error message | 13:50 |
| lotuspsychje | kur1j: lets see wich driver your system reccomends for your card first, ubuntu-drivers list | 13:50 |
| kur1j | however, 16.04.5 works on the Dell 7910 | 13:50 |
| lotuspsychje | kur1j: depends on chipset/kernel/driver version | 13:51 |
| TJ- | kur1j: from my research you need a kernel 4.13 or later to support the Nvidia GTX970+ ... maybe that affects the GTX1080 too | 13:51 |
| kur1j | TJ-: does 16.04.5 run the 4.13 kernel? | 13:52 |
| kur1j | lotuspsychje: is that a command I should run? | 13:52 |
| lotuspsychje | kur1j: yes, ubuntu-drivers list | 13:52 |
| TJ- | kur1j: that would seggest 16.04.4 is the minimum that *should* work :) | 13:52 |
| TJ- | kur1j: 16.04.5 has the v4.15 kernel from 18.04 | 13:53 |
| TJ- | kur1j: 16.04.4 has v4.13 kernel | 13:53 |
| kur1j | TJ-: how do you know which kernel which dot release has? | 13:53 |
| kur1j | TJ-: which doesn't make since 16.04.1 installs correctly on the machine but 16.04.2+ won't | 13:54 |
| TJ- | kur1j: see the graphics at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack | 13:56 |
| TJ- | kur1j: this one in particular: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack#Kernel.2FSupport.A16.04.x_Ubuntu_Kernel_Support | 13:56 |
| kur1j | lotuspsychje: just returns nvidia-384 | 13:59 |
| lotuspsychje | kur1j: you might wanna try the hwe kernel and test the drivers reccomended from the ubuntu graphics ppa | 14:00 |
| kur1j | lotuspsychje: well the problem is, I can't really install drivers until it gets installed. | 14:01 |
| kur1j | lotuspsychje: like what I ended up doing was...installed 16.04.1 (since it was the only one would installed)...physically installed old broadcom NIC into unit-->put it on internet and upgraded to 16.04.5-->which fixed the on board NIC driver | 14:03 |
| kur1j | I did NOT install the nividia-384 drivers and it was working fine | 14:03 |
| lotuspsychje | kur1j: try to get in via recoverymode | 14:03 |
| lotuspsychje | kur1j: yeah 384 i wouldnt reccomend anymore | 14:04 |
| lotuspsychje | kur1j: also not sure why your system reccomends it on kernel 4.15 | 14:05 |
| kur1j | lotuspsychje: how do you get into recoverymode during installation? | 14:06 |
| kur1j | there is obviously some type of regression problem | 14:06 |
| kur1j | but I have no idea how to debug it | 14:06 |
| lotuspsychje | kur1j: the installation of what? | 14:07 |
| zen_coder | I need to install qt 5.9.1 x86 for ubuntu 14.04 | 14:07 |
| zen_coder | I did it via sudo apt-add-repository --yes ppa:beineri/opt-qt591-trusty | 14:07 |
| TJ- | kur1j: Your issue sounds like it could be related to a hybrid/optimus/prime situation, which lotuspsychje knows quite a bit about :) | 14:07 |
| zen_coder | however, it seems to install only x64 | 14:07 |
| zen_coder | can anybody helpt me to install x86? | 14:07 |
| kur1j | lotuspsychje: the actual OS | 14:07 |
| kur1j | lotuspsychje: like this is happening during installation | 14:07 |
| lotuspsychje | zen_coder: we try to avoid ppa adding here, and advice to stick to the repos | 14:07 |
| pragmaticenigma | zen_coder: You will have to contact that maintainer of the 3rd PPA. This channel isn't able to support them | 14:08 |
| pragmaticenigma | *3rd Party PPA | 14:08 |
| lotuspsychje | kur1j: first things first, let the ubuntu install go first and enable 3rd party+ update during install | 14:09 |
| kur1j | lotuspsychje: doesn't even get to that | 14:09 |
| lotuspsychje | kur1j: ah so, to bypass that try to install via a liveusb(nomodeset) | 14:09 |
| kur1j | lotuspsychje: did that, still won't boot | 14:10 |
| TJ- | zen_coder: if the host is x86_64 then that is what will be installed (amd64 packages) unless the host also has a foreign-architecture: i386 set, in which case the package named needs the ":i386" suffix when installing | 14:10 |
| lotuspsychje | kur1j: and this is the 16.04.5 iso right? | 14:10 |
| kur1j | lotuspsychje: I image USB drive with 16.04.5, select "Install Ubuntu", and about 10 seconds later I see "[33.192238] nouveau 0000:05:00.0: DRM: base-0: timeout" over and over again | 14:11 |
| lotuspsychje | kur1j: no this time try ' try ubuntu' | 14:11 |
| zen_coder | TJ-: so how is the final command? | 14:11 |
| zen_coder | udo apt-add-repository --yes ppa:beineri/opt-qt591-trusty:i386 ? | 14:12 |
| kur1j | lotuspsychje: I image USB drive with 16.04.5, select "Install Ubuntu" hit "e" remove "slient splash" and replace it with "nomodeset", and then it prompts at an error message saying in red "failed to start Ubuntu Installation Service, please run journalctl to see what failed" | 14:12 |
| TJ- | zen_coder: no, I was talking about installing packages. What you're doing there is adding a repository archive | 14:12 |
| kur1j | lotuspsychje: already tried "try ubuntu" same thing | 14:12 |
| zen_coder | TJ-: so here? sudo apt-get --yes install qt59base qt59x11extras qt59quickcontrols2 | 14:13 |
| lotuspsychje | kur1j: how are your uefi settings? | 14:13 |
| kur1j | HOWEVER, if image the USB drive with 16.04.1, boot from it, it boots just fine no adjustments to anything | 14:13 |
| pragmaticenigma | zen_coder: You should read up on cross compiling and compiling for different architectures. Setting up a proper environment for building applications that will run on other CPU types than the machine your compiling them on | 14:13 |
| TJ- | zen_coder: "dpkg --print-foreign-architectures" will show if you have the "1386" arch set | 14:13 |
| kur1j | lotuspsychje: its in non secure mode | 14:13 |
| TJ- | zen_coder: in which case to install an x86 package you'd do "sudo apt install <package>:i386" | 14:14 |
| lotuspsychje | kur1j: fastboot=off aswell? | 14:14 |

| kur1j | lotuspsychje: not sure about that one, didn't think it would affect it since .1 works and .5 didn't | 14:14 |
| kur1j | let me go check | 14:14 |
| TJ- | kur1j: I wonder if the reason .1 works is that nouveau never tries to handle that device, and instead it's left to the standard VESA driver? | 14:15 |
| zetheroo | I installed a second disk in a Windows 10 system and installed Ubuntu Server 18.04 on it, but on boot there is no grub menu and thus no way to select which OS to boot into. At the moment Ubuntu is booting. | 14:18 |
| BluesKaj | Howdy all | 14:18 |
| zetheroo | I have tried manually entering the details into /etc/grub.d/40_custom and running update-grub but that's not working for me | 14:18 |
| lotuspsychje | kur1j: in normal cases we can usually enter by nomodeset | 14:19 |
| lotuspsychje | kur1j: another idea would testing a, 18.04.1 .iso to get in | 14:21 |
| zetheroo | os-prober shows /dev/sdb1:Windows 10:Windows:chain | 14:22 |
| lotuspsychje | zetheroo: come join #ubuntu-server volunteers might know some tricks perhaps | 14:22 |
| zetheroo | ok | 14:22 |
| kur1j | lotuspsychje: doesn't seem to have a "fast boot" option in the BIOS | 14:22 |
| lotuspsychje | kur1j: if its an uefi system, it should | 14:22 |
| cryptodan | you will meed to use nomodeset for anything newer then a GTX 9xx video card by nvidia | 14:23 |
| lotuspsychje | cryptodan: he says he cant enter with nomode | 14:23 |

| ubottu | glaucom: Please elaborate; your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information; for example, we might need errors, steps, relevant configuration files, Ubuntu version, and hardware information. Use a !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel. | 14:28 |
| cryptodan | kur1j: you will need to check and also what did you use to create the usb | 14:28 |
| kur1j | There are 3 options, Legacy Boot, UEFI Secure Boot Off, EUFI Secure Boot On. It is currently set to EUFI Secure boot Off | 14:28 |

| glaucom | on youtube the video of some fights. but if I put my mouse over the video the problem does not appear. crazy no ? | 14:29 |
| cryptodan | kur1j: have access to windows | 14:30 |
| kur1j | I did until I reformatted these drives :-/ | 14:30 |
| kur1j | cryptodan: or are you talking about just in general? | 14:30 |
| pragmaticenigma | kur1j: Are you sure the windows drive is still intact? | 14:30 |
| kur1j | to create a USB boot or something? | 14:31 |
| cryptodan | kur1j: I would highly recommend reinstalling windows and to use rufus to create the usb | 14:31 |
| Bambus | glaucom, can you install nvidia proprietary? | 14:31 |
| Bambus | thats better than the free driver you have loaded | 14:31 |
| glaucom | how can I tell if it is installed correctly? | 14:32 |
| kur1j | cryptodan: I'm pretty sure that isn't the problem but I can try it, not many other ideas | 14:32 |
| kur1j | cryptodan: the reason why I say that is because 16.04.1 boots without issue using the same exact method | 14:32 |
| glaucom | and how to know if linux is not using Intel hd grafics as default? | 14:32 |
| cryptodan | kur1j: i have used rufus on a gtx 980ti based system as well as this gtx 1070 based laptop that im on | 14:33 |
| Bambus | the switch made by bbswitch configuration | 14:33 |
| kur1j | cryptodan: I'm not denying it won't work | 14:33 |

| Zajt | Hi! I got a system with 18.04(bionic) Ubuntu LTS and when I run: apt-get update, I get "The repository does not have a release file". What could I do to fix this? | 14:39 |
| lotuspsychje | Zajt: can you pastebin the output of: sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade please? | 14:40 |
| compdoc | dont use apt-get anymore, Zajt | 14:40 |
| Sircle | lotuspsychje, monitor, collaborate | 14:41 |
| lotuspsychje | Sircle: for collaboration i strongly reccomend cloud based todolist, like todoist for example | 14:41 |
| lotuspsychje | Sircle: monitor employees is another thing, you should investigate for legal purposes on that | 14:42 |
| nicko88 | is there any way i can update the libav-tools in my 14.04? | 14:42 |
| lotuspsychje | !latest | nicko88 | 14:42 |
| ubottu | nicko88: 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. | 14:42 |
| nicko88 | well ive been looking for a ppa but i can't seem to find one with a newer build | 14:45 |
| lotuspsychje | nicko88: we strongly suggest using packages specific for your ubuntu version, or snaps or !backports | 14:45 |
| Zajt | lotuspsychje: I updated /etc/apt/sources.list file to: https://gist.github.com/jackw1111/d31140946901fab417131ff4d9ae92e3 and then I ran: sudo apt update && sudp apt full-upgrade , then I get this output: https://pastebin.com/fHXEyJbF | 14:45 |
| nicko88 | well the issue is other software that uses libav doesnt like the old version that trusty has | 14:46 |
| lotuspsychje | Zajt: you added external ppa's to your system wich we dont support, strongly reccomended to cleanout first with !ppapurge | 14:46 |
| nicko88 | how can i see whats in snaps or backports | 14:46 |
| Zajt | how do I clean it? | 14:47 |
| lotuspsychje | !backports | nicko88 | 14:47 |
| ubottu | nicko88: If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they may go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports - See also !packaging | 14:47 |
| lotuspsychje | !ppapurge | Zajt | 14:47 |
| ubottu | Zajt: To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory> » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html | 14:47 |
| lotuspsychje | nicko88: not sure if snaps will work on 14.04, didnt test myself sorry | 14:47 |
| Zajt | what should be the respository name and what should be the subdirectory? | 14:48 |
| arpad2 | hello, I have just upgraded to 18.10. I read that the nvidia optimus support now has been improved from the previous version, however I am not sure whether the intel or nvidia driver is in use onn my system. For instance, nvidia is selected in prime select, but the steam software shows that the intel driver is in use. Is it possible to define applications for which the nvidia card should be used and for the rest intel graphics? thanks! | 14:49 |
| nicko88 | ah, it appears my package is not in backports :( | 14:49 |
| lotuspsychje | Zajt: try to find back the ppa link you added the at first | 14:49 |
| nicko88 | so my only option is to upgrade to a newer ubuntu | 14:49 |
| lotuspsychje | nicko88: if your system allows it, sure 16.04 or 18.04 is reccomended | 14:50 |
| nicko88 | well its an lxc | 14:50 |
| Zajt | lotuspsychje: have no idea which one that could be :/ | 14:50 |
| nicko88 | im just afraid everything is going to break when i upgrade | 14:50 |
| nicko88 | seems like overkill when all i need is a newer version of avconv heh | 14:51 |
| lotuspsychje | Zajt: seems like this launchpad: https://launchpad.net/uwsgi | 14:51 |
| Zajt | yeah according to the output , it's something with uwsgi | 14:52 |
| Zajt | can I remove that in some way and then try to update the system? | 14:52 |
| lotuspsychje | Zajt: you can look in software&sources aswell | 14:52 |
| lotuspsychje | Zajt: but with ppapurge you can remove everything and leftovers | 14:53 |
| Zajt | yeah I want to do that but not sure about how to run that command with the subdirectory etc | 14:53 |
| Zajt | it's this one lotuspsychje http://ppa.launchpad.net/uwsgi/release/ubuntu | 14:55 |
| Zajt | what command should I run to delete that one? | 14:56 |
| leftyfb | Ubuntu 16.04 server(no GUI). For some reason NetworkManager is running a dhclient instance when it wasn't before. the nm conf has managed=false for ifupdown. This should work, but it's not for some reason. Any ideas? | 14:58 |
| kur1j | cryptodan: no dice same exact issue | 14:58 |
| lotuspsychje | Zajt: ppa:uwsgi/release | 14:59 |
| kur1j | lotuspsychje: 16.04.5 install, selecting "Install Ubuntu" about 10 seconds later see this https://m.imgur.com/a/n4Li1wa | 14:59 |
| lotuspsychje | Zajt: think this is what you added: https://launchpad.net/~uwsgi/+archive/ubuntu/release | 15:00 |
| kur1j | lotuspsychje: keeps repeating | 15:00 |
| lotuspsychje | kur1j: think its still an uefi issue | 15:01 |
| kur1j | lotuspsychje: then this is what I get when I when I try no modeset, https://m.imgur.com/a/zOMCTAb | 15:01 |
| erle- | Why is it no longer possible to put Nautilis on the side? (half screen I mean) | 15:01 |
| Platonides | kur1j: try adding nouveau.modeset=0 to the kernel cmdline | 15:01 |
| kur1j | lotuspsychje: then it goes to a flashing "_" and never does anything else | 15:01 |
| lotuspsychje | kur1j: yeah _ blinking is also an uefi bad setting | 15:02 |
| lotuspsychje | kur1j: you might also try a bios update | 15:03 |
| kur1j | lotuspsychje: so what setting do I need to change? https://m.imgur.com/a/c22BNx0 | 15:03 |
| kur1j | lotuspsychje: I tried updating to the latest BIOS | 15:03 |
| kur1j | well I did update to the latest BIOS | 15:04 |
| Zajt | it seems to work lotuspsychje to update and upgrade the system now, thanks a lot! | 15:04 |
| lotuspsychje | kur1j: set boot mode to legacy | 15:04 |

| cryptodan | kur1j: what versions of linux boot on that machine | 15:06 |
| Pdrome | i finally registered and wondered if anyone had any idea how i can use xfsprogs 2.9.4 on bionic beaver? I have been trying to sort out a pvr hdd for the past few hours and this is the last hurdle | 15:06 |
| kur1j | cryptodan: 16.04.5 | 15:06 |
| cryptodan | any previous ones prior to that one | 15:07 |
| timeless | anyone here familiar w/ `watch -d`? I'm using it, and the result is that it leaves me w/ a blank screen | 15:07 |
| compdoc | kur1j, it that boot menu, you could have selected legacy boot without changing settings | 15:07 |
| kur1j | cryptodan: 16.04.2+ all do the SAME exact thing | 15:07 |
| kur1j | 16.04.1 works without issue | 15:07 |
| kur1j | compdoc: yes, but the USB boot image I have is EUFI and won't work :) | 15:08 |
| kur1j | I'm creating one now with Rufus | 15:08 |
| compdoc | your boot usb might not be any good. what sort of computer is it? what cpu? | 15:08 |
| cryptodan | kur1j: you may want to try the following https://access.redhat.com/solutions/58790 per https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=105319 the last one. | 15:09 |
| ubottu | Freedesktop bug 105319 in Driver/nouveau "DRM: EVO timeout with kernel 4.15.x" [Major,New] | 15:09 |
| kur1j | compdoc: I've made about 4 different USB drives, on 3 different computers in about 5 different ways | 15:09 |
| compdoc | do you have windows? | 15:09 |
| kur1j | compdoc: yes.. I'm creating a boot drive with rufus right now | 15:10 |
| compdoc | imageUSB works very well for me | 15:10 |
| skomorokh_ | It seems like every kernel or two in 18.04 my (Atheros) wireless device doesn't show up and I have to use the old kernel and cross my fingers the new one fixes it. And it usually does one or two releases later. This experience familiar to anyone else? | 15:11 |
| kur1j | compdoc: its not the USB booting its a problem with either the Ubuntu installer software, EUFI | 15:11 |
| nicko88 | hmm i don't have "do-release-upgrade", that's problamatic | 15:11 |
| Pdrome | is this the correct channel to ask for help or is there a better one? | 15:12 |
| compdoc | you can always ask | 15:12 |
| amosbird | Hi, is there an agetty issue file pretty printer around ? | 15:12 |
| Pdrome | i asked above but didnt want to spam my question | 15:12 |
| Pdrome | should i retype? | 15:13 |
| compdoc | no, just wait. someone might know | 15:13 |
| spliffy | Pdrome: I would try the deb from the debian repos. | 15:13 |
| spliffy | Pdrome: If it is there | 15:14 |
| nicko88 | so if i am using do-release upgrade from 14.04 i have to go to 16.04 first before 18.04 right? | 15:14 |
| Pdrome | ok, thanks .. i am sure my question is basic gnu/linux type stuff but sadly it is a weak aspect of my knowledge - eg getting very old version of software installed | 15:14 |
| leftyfb | https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/Vj9F35wGXw/ As I mentioned above, this is my symptom. It's fine that "/usr/sbin/NetworkManager --no-daemon" is running, but it should not be calling dhclient and dnsmasq. Anyone know where it might be configured to do this? | 15:14 |
| spliffy | Pdrome: have you checked https://packages.ubuntu.com ? | 15:15 |
| Pdrome | spliffy would you mind to pm me just so i can tell what i have tried so far | 15:15 |
| spliffy | Pdrome: I'm sorry, I'm very busy. I shouldn't distract myself this much :P | 15:15 |
| Pdrome | its ok then thanks for your words so far then spliffy | 15:16 |
| spliffy | you're welcome | 15:16 |
| spliffy | Pdrome: just write it down here | 15:17 |
| Pdrome | so far i have tried going to packages and then going to old version and then to Hardy Heron version 8.0.4.0 LTS.. this has xfsprogs2.9.4 but then i am stuck eg i dont know how i can get that version of xfsprogs installed on bionic beaver | 15:17 |
| Pdrome | like i say...probably basic noob stuff but would really appreciate someone throwing me a bone here | 15:17 |
| spliffy | Pdrome: just download the .deb file from packages.ubuntu.com and try to install it by double clicking in nautilus or running dpkg -i PACKAGE_NAME | 15:18 |
| Pdrome | if i go to packages.ubuntu.com website i cant see .deb files.... just the iso for hardy heron | 15:19 |
| Pdrome | that make sense? | 15:19 |
| spliffy | If it finishes, everything is good. If not, you might be missing dependencies. | 15:19 |
| Pdrome | i do have a hardy heron live cd burnt... is it not possible for me to grab it off that or am i being daft? | 15:19 |
| spliffy | Pdrome: https://packages.ubuntu.com has a search form for packages ... if you see ISOs you are not on the correct page | 15:20 |
| Pdrome | when i do that though xfsprogs comes up in search but it is version 4.x.x is that not pointless for me as i want 2.9.4 | 15:21 |
| Pdrome | as you can see, i am confused and likely my lack of full linux knowledge could be my problem | 15:22 |
| Platonides | why do you need an old xfsprogs? | 15:22 |
| Pdrome | i need to expand an old pvr hdd up to 2tb after using dd to clone it | 15:23 |
| Platonides | and? | 15:23 |
| spliffy | Pdrome: I wasn't aware the version you say you want is that old. I thought it was bleeding edge. But i doubt you really need a version this old unless you know why exactly. | 15:23 |
| Pdrome | using gparted i am now at the last hurdle - getting the partition expanded to 2tb however this xfs is so old that it needs xfsprogs 2.9.4 to work on fixing the superblock using V1 | 15:24 |
| Pdrome | and xfsprogs devs removed this support out of later xfsprogs versions | 15:24 |
| Pdrome | yes sorry to clarify xfsprogs 2.9.4 is something like 2007 | 15:24 |
| Platonides | ouch | 15:24 |
| Pdrome | hence i found it on Hardy Heron | 15:24 |
| === capellaLugosi is now known as capella | ||
| spliffy | Ok.. i thought you missed a 1 in 8.04.01 .. :D | 15:25 |
| Pdrome | i want sure is first hardy heron was called 8.0.4.0 or not ;o) | 15:25 |
| Platonides | looking at http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/8.04.4/ubuntu-8.04-dvd-i386.list it does list xfsprogs 2.9.4-2 | 15:26 |
| Platonides | yes | 15:26 |
| Pdrome | as xfsprogs is only on the very first Hardy Heron lts release afaik | 15:26 |
| Platonides | 8.04 = Hardy Heron | 15:26 |
| Pdrome | so you can al see my problem is quite tragic and kinda like chicken and the egg situation haha | 15:26 |
| Pdrome | if my Terminal Kung-fu was better i could possibly dig myself out this hole but honestly i really could do with some help from a die hard linux user | 15:27 |
| Platonides | maybe it would be easier to compile an old xfsprogs version | 15:28 |
| Platonides | who knows | 15:28 |
| spliffy | Pdrome: theoretically you could boot a Heron dekstop live cd and install xfsprogs in the live system | 15:29 |
| Pdrome | i am actually getting into programming specifically game dev (engines) but i havent ever compiled anything linux wise to use so i would be out of my depth | 15:29 |
| Pdrome | this is why i didnt | 15:29 |
| Pdrome | have used linux on off for about 10yrs now but this problem is really showing me my limits on my knowhow :o( | 15:30 |
| spliffy | Pdrome: Compiling is very straight forward for most well managed open source projects | 15:30 |
| Platonides | spliffy: ..assuming that xfsprogs package was included in that live cd | 15:30 |
| Platonides | but if it is, that's probably the quickest way, indeed | 15:30 |
| Pdrome | i know for sure that 2.9.4 is on first hardy heron as i booted the live cd earlier | 15:31 |
| spliffy | Platonides: no, it doesn't have to be included. You can add the repository for it. | 15:31 |
| Pdrome | it just wouldnt allow me to update gparted | 15:31 |
| Pdrome | see this is really showing my noobness | 15:31 |
| Platonides | spliffy: which repository? | 15:31 |
| Platonides | I would assume the mirrors would be down... | 15:31 |
| spliffy | Platonides: and didn't you just say it was inclued here? ubuntu-8.04-dvd-i386.list | 15:32 |
| tgm4883 | the ISOs dont' include packages | 15:32 |
| Pdrome | i didnt even know how to force latest gparted onto Hardy Heron | 15:32 |
| tgm4883 | And 8.04 is really really out of support | 15:32 |
| tgm4883 | so this is all really off topic | 15:32 |
| Platonides | it is listed there | 15:32 |
| Platonides | but I'm not sure if it means it was in the DVD or not | 15:32 |
| spliffy | Platonides: you can just use old-releases.ubuntu.com in the apt source configuration. | 15:32 |
| Pdrome | yeah exact really really out of support...so this now is me trying from bionic beaver live cd to force old xfsprogs 2.9.4 to install | 15:33 |
| spliffy | Platonides: did it many times to upgrade EOL servers. | 15:33 |
| tgm4883 | still unsupported. You're trying to expand some old XFS drive? | 15:33 |
| spliffy | tgm4883: not off topic ... | 15:33 |
| Pdrome | is there a clear 2 line thing i can run in terminal to achieve this or is it gui based? | 15:33 |
| Pdrome | yes tgm exactly | 15:34 |
| Platonides | where is the pool at old-releases, spliffy ? | 15:34 |
| spliffy | Platonides: i don't know. i this a rhetorical question? | 15:34 |
| tgm4883 | spliffy: oh sorry, I thought force installing a package not built for a supported release onto a supported release and then trying to use said package to do things on the supported release would have been unsupported | 15:34 |
| Pdrome | my hopefully supported question would be 'how does a noob install older versions of software on bionic beaver? | 15:34 |
| Pdrome | tgm spliffy was just doing thier best to be helpful and i wasnt that clear to begin with | 15:35 |
| Platonides | aha, at /ubuntu | 15:36 |
| Platonides | Pdrome: what you are trying to do is unsupported, but... | 15:36 |
| spliffy | tgm4883: saying it is off topic is very unhelpful. Pdrome is kind and doesn't demand stuff, so please chill | 15:36 |
| Platonides | download http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/x/xfsprogs/xfsprogs_2.9.4-2_i386.deb | 15:36 |
| Platonides | dpkg -i xfsprogs_2.9.4-2_i386.deb | 15:36 |
| Platonides | or amd64 instead of i386 :P | 15:36 |
| tgm4883 | Pdrome: maybe I didn't read back far enough but why doesn't xfs_growfs work? | 15:36 |
| Platonides | tgm4883: it's an old XFS format | 15:37 |
| Platonides | and newer versions removed support for that | 15:37 |
| tgm4883 | what format? | 15:37 |
| Pdrome | tgm due to it no longer carrying support for old xfs i think ...it states superblock v1 needed | 15:37 |
| Platonides | Pdrome said that the superblock used V1 | 15:37 |
| Platonides | "and xfsprogs devs removed this support out of later xfsprogs versions" | 15:37 |
| Pdrome | and my research tells me that xfsprogs 2.9.4 was the last version the xfsprogs devs included it | 15:38 |
| Pdrome | we are talking a pvr hdd circa 2007 so very old versions of xfsprogs and hardy heron ubuntu 8.04 | 15:39 |
| Platonides | Pdrome: see my above instructions | 15:39 |

| glaucom | i installed my video card NVIDIA | 15:41 |
| glaucom | https://websiteforstudents.com/install-proprietary-nvidia-gpu-drivers-on-ubuntu-16-04-17-10-18-04/ | 15:41 |
| glaucom | but in configuration no say NVIDIA | 15:42 |
| glaucom | https://imgur.com/a/CyPoJsz | 15:42 |
| glaucom | is correct ? | 15:42 |
| gpunk | laptop ? | 15:43 |
| === eviladmin is now known as mrspock | ||
| gpunk | maybe a hybrid cards | 15:43 |
| glaucom | yes | 15:43 |
| glaucom | i have hd graphics and nvidia 740m | 15:43 |
| spliffy | Platonides: There it is http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/ | 15:43 |
| glaucom | with the latest version of ubuntu is not locking videos on youtube. | 15:44 |
| Pdrome | i have installed 2.9.4 but does that overwrite the newer version of xfsprogs or are both now installed? do i just retry the expand in gparted now? | 15:44 |
| glaucom | but I wanted to get this doubt, what processor is ubuntu using? of nvidia or intel hd grafics? | 15:44 |
| KrisDouglas | glaucom, it will be using the intel chip | 15:45 |
| KrisDouglas | glaucom, https://www.linuxbabe.com/desktop-linux/switch-intel-nvidia-graphics-card-ubuntu | 15:46 |
| glaucom | lshw >> https://pastebin.com/nPqTf8Hd | 15:47 |
| glaucom | k. tanks, i try KrisDouglas | 15:47 |
| Pdrome | even after installing xfsprogs 2.9.4 it is still not possible to work with superblock v1 - i guess this just isnt possible | 15:49 |
| Pdrome | such a shame the newer versions of xfsprogs/ubuntu arent allowing to work with older xfs hdds filesystems | 15:50 |
| hggdh | Pdrome: no, it is not a shame. It is life. Get a throw-away box, install Hardy on it, and then mount & save your filesystem somewhere else | 15:51 |
| Pdrome | i honestly think i will now admit defeat but huge thanks to you all for trying to help me, as someone who used to do support i really appreciate the help | 15:51 |
| Pdrome | even using the hardy live cd it would not expand the hdd xfs partition to 2tb | 15:52 |
| tgm4883 | Pdrome: I would get another hard drive and move data | 15:52 |
| Pdrome | checking the hardy gparted screen for supported actions had 'expand' crossed out | 15:52 |
| tgm4883 | might be the easiest solution | 15:52 |
| Pdrome | i have got a 2tb and done a dd clone but it just did exact clone from a 250gb hdd to a 2tb hdd...i wanted to finish by expand the 2tb to the end of the hdd | 15:53 |
| tgm4883 | Pdrome: I mean I would mount it, and rsync the stuff to the new larger drive | 15:53 |
| tgm4883 | rather than dd. | 15:54 |
| Pdrome | but due to the file system being so old i have tried with hardy heron and bionic beaver and it just isnt happy doing it wnting to perform a check and superblock v1 being an impossible hurdle it seems | 15:54 |
| tgm4883 | Pdrome: honestly, we're talking about a 10 year old hard drive at this point, I'd be surprised if there's not some issues with it | 15:54 |
| === Thargoid is now known as stwalkerster | ||
| tgm4883 | Pdrome: and a drive used for PVR stuff to boot | 15:55 |
| Pdrome | well tbh tgm, you may understand my situation way better than me so maybe you can tell the difficulty is actually the hdd condition of the 250gb hdd but now the data is on the 2tb and with what you said about rsync...maybe you have given me slight hope to start again with rsync | 15:56 |
| Pdrome | again, thanks to all for helping and having the patience with me! | 15:57 |
| Pdrome | i will knock it on the head for today and try again tomorrow. | 15:58 |
| tgm4883 | Pdrome: I'd also suggest trying a xfs_repair on it, since you've got a backup of the drive | 15:59 |
| Pdrome | ok tgm, will do cheers | 15:59 |

| tachikomas | :'( | 16:47 |
| tachikomas | ok | 16:47 |

| white_magic | anyone here familiar with lubuntu/openbox/lxde/lxqt? I am trying to create some keyboard shorcuts, but any involving the Super key do not work - and all other key combinations work. Any ideas as to potential causes? | 17:48 |
| === daniel is now known as Guest47390 | ||
| TJ- | white_magic: that sounds familiar; I think we had someone else discover that a couple weeks ago. I don't recall what their eventually workaround was though | 17:52 |
| ioria | white_magic, silly thing: not just Super but Super_R and Super_L | 17:53 |
| white_magic | TJ-: would be great if you were able to search in chat history | 17:53 |
| white_magic | ioria: in the openbox config, it uses the shorthand of 'W' to denote the super key and it does not differentiate between left and right supre | 17:54 |
| ioria | ok | 17:54 |
| TJ- | white_magic: I can't find anything, it's not an easy issue to search for. too much use of the word 'super' in other contexts | 18:00 |
| white_magic | TJ-: definitely so | 18:01 |
| TJ- | white_magic: does xev report the key(s) being pressed/released? | 18:03 |
| ioria | white_magic, you can also try xbindkeys (i used it to set a lock screen shortcut Super+Z on lxqt) | 18:06 |
| kur1j | cryptodan: not a laptop (desktop machine) | 18:12 |
| kur1j | but yeah its stupid | 18:12 |
| === capella is now known as capella|away | ||
| white_magic | TJ-: I think I got it figured out: the shortcut key combo (using the left super key) to launch the start menu in lxqt-config-globalkeyshortcuts was the culprit. I rebound it to something else and now all other Super+? key combos work. So it was taking precedence over all of them. | 18:20 |
| white_magic | ioria: i got it figured out. Read my message to TJ if you're interested | 18:20 |

| oleka | hi all. I am trying to recover a friend's (windows) PC and install ubuntu on it because the windows installation isnt loading. the boot media is fine--I checked it on my own PC and booted to the desktop. but i cant get the BIOS on the target machine to recognize it as a bootable medium. secure boot is disabled, as is the trust module thingumy. any help? x | 18:44 |
| oleka | its lenovo idea-pad 330 | 18:45 |

| gpunk | you pressed F12 to enter boot menu ? | 18:47 |
| gpunk | or Fn + F12 ... while it boots | 18:48 |
| oleka | yes, we are in the BIOS now. have also tried F11 for the boot menu. both display only "Windows Boot Manager" as a bootable option | 18:49 |

| python2 | gee111: if by flash drive you mean usb stick then I suggest "don't do it", since they tend to not live long | 20:53 |
| tachikomas | python2, yup, this is the idea. | 20:53 |
| python2 | gee111: and you can pick up a 1tb hdd for 30 bucks | 20:53 |
| python2 | or less | 20:53 |
| kumool | or just use a microsd card as your new hdd | 20:54 |
| python2 | 50ish brand new | 20:55 |
| tachikomas | found a samsung evo 860 500GB for 60 bucks.. the 256 to 32 on amazon... this is really better than your usb stuff | 20:55 |
| gee111 | microsd? | 20:55 |
| python2 | kumool: also lifespan issues, and horrible performance | 20:55 |
| tachikomas | kumool, not a good idea also. | 20:55 |
| kumool | good idea if he has a phone lying around | 20:55 |
| tachikomas | gee111, what is your budget for your usbstick | 20:55 |
| gee111 | 1 tb hdd is 300$ here. but currency is 1 USB - 3.20 $ here | 20:56 |
| tachikomas | kumool, thoses devices are not made to have as much as a full FS running on it. no fault tolerence. they are made for pure storage, not to have constant r/w from the system | 20:56 |
| gee111 | *USD | 20:56 |
| gee111 | today's currency is 1 USD = 3.5 | 20:57 |
| tachikomas | geelll to simply reply to your question, you will have a little bit more performance over USB3, if your computer have usb3 ports. But this is really a bad idea. | 20:57 |
| python2 | if you want solid state, you can pick up a 128gb ssd of decent quality for 30-40usd | 20:57 |
| python2 | brand new | 20:57 |
| tachikomas | gee111, 1Tb 300$ ? a bit weird. | 20:58 |
| python2 | tachikomas: even with the 3:1 exchange rate, 100 usd is way high | 20:58 |
| kumool | tachikomas, exactly, no risk of the OS breaking if you never update anything | 20:58 |
| gee111 | there are the taxes included | 20:58 |
| python2 | gee111: look at the used markets for your country | 20:58 |

| tachikomas | kumool ? | 20:59 |
| python2 | also, exernal hdds can sometimes be cheaper than internal ones | 20:59 |
| tachikomas | python2, i would pick a external too. | 20:59 |
| python2 | gee111: which country are you in? | 20:59 |
| tachikomas | kumool, your flashdrive/usbstick/sdcard is NOT a ssd/hard drive. By writing a lot on the drive, you "use" the blocks. After a while thoses block have to be replaced by the system. Off course a usb stick you dont move a lot of files all of the time. But a hard drive you do. | 21:00 |
| tachikomas | kumool, look at your system logs, the swap, caches etc. Even if you dont update, you still move a lot of files (smalls but still :) ) | 21:01 |
| kumool | tachikomas, live dvds | 21:02 |
| tachikomas | kumool, they load the "live" in the ram. He want to use the usb stick as a hard drive. | 21:02 |
| tachikomas | install a system on the usb, and use it from the media. | 21:02 |
| gee111 | Kington 16 GB is half the price of 32 GB | 21:03 |
| gee111 | I just need to install the OS and boot. Maybe office and something else. | 21:04 |
| tachikomas | Up to you. | 21:04 |
| gee111 | 16 GB enough? | 21:05 |
| tachikomas | i would recommend a minimum of 32. But your not really listening so :) | 21:05 |
| InvisibleRasta | hello guys. i am in the need to insatall temaviewer on the live cd | 21:06 |
| InvisibleRasta | i tried downlaoding the deb from teaviewer website | 21:06 |
| InvisibleRasta | but it keeps saying its missing dependencies | 21:07 |
| InvisibleRasta | how can i install the dependencies | 21:07 |
| InvisibleRasta | on the live cd | 21:07 |
| kumool | gee111, change OS to something lighter | 21:07 |
| tachikomas | what dependencies are you missing ? | 21:07 |
| InvisibleRasta | http://dpaste.com/1VXHA03 | 21:08 |
| nacc | InvisibleRasta: use gdebi | 21:08 |
| InvisibleRasta | whats that | 21:09 |
| nacc | InvisibleRasta: dpkg does not resolve dependencies and is not the appropriate tool to use if you don't know you have the correct dependencies already. | 21:09 |
| InvisibleRasta | i dont ahve gdebi | 21:09 |
| tachikomas | sudo apt install gdebi | 21:09 |
| tachikomas | you can also use the ubuntu software center | 21:09 |
| tachikomas | !info gdebi | 21:10 |
| ubottu | gdebi (source: gdebi): simple tool to view and install deb files - GNOME GUI. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.9.5.7+nmu2 (bionic), package size 23 kB, installed size 169 kB | 21:10 |
| InvisibleRasta | maybe u missed the bit where i said i am on the live cd | 21:10 |
| InvisibleRasta | and i need to run teamviewer from there | 21:10 |
| nacc | InvisibleRasta: what does that have to do with anything? | 21:10 |
| InvisibleRasta | so i guess i need to add sources list? | 21:10 |
| nacc | InvisibleRasta: you can still install packages in the live environment. | 21:11 |
| nacc | InvisibleRasta: you need to have universe enabled, yes. I don't know if that's the case or not in your environment. | 21:11 |
| tachikomas | nacc, normally it's on by default. | 21:11 |
| InvisibleRasta | E: Package 'gdebi' has no installation candidate | 21:11 |
| nacc | tachikomas: i don't think that's true any longer | 21:11 |
| tachikomas | anyway ubuntu software center should be installed on the live | 21:11 |
| InvisibleRasta | i jsut booted into the livecd a nd wont let me innstall anything | 21:11 |
| nacc | InvisibleRasta: ok, you'll need to enable universe then | 21:11 |
| InvisibleRasta | yeah but no how so? | 21:12 |
| nacc | tachikomas: but even ubuntu software center needs the repository change to allow for universe, in 18.04 and on | 21:12 |
| nacc | !components | InvisibleRasta | 21:12 |
| ubottu | InvisibleRasta: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories. | 21:12 |
| tachikomas | sudo add-apt-repository universe && sudo apt-get update | 21:12 |

| InvisibleRasta | ty | 21:13 |
| nacc | InvisibleRasta: `apt-cache policy gdebi` please in a pastebin | 21:13 |
| tachikomas | InvisibleRasta, dont forget to update the apt cache :) | 21:13 |
| gee111 | ubuntu says that the min to create a bootable USB is 1 GB | 21:15 |
| InvisibleRasta | nacc: http://dpaste.com/380R772 | 21:16 |
| tachikomas | apt --fix-broken install ? | 21:16 |
| nacc | you could try that, but i'm not sure apt will resolve it | 21:17 |
| nacc | to get gdebi working, trying | 21:17 |
| nacc | sudo apt-get install gdebi gdebi-core gnome-icon-theme | 21:17 |
| cryptodan_mobile | nacc: try using kubuntu live | 21:18 |
| InvisibleRasta | http://dpaste.com/0KDA941 | 21:18 |
| nacc | cryptodan_mobile: ? | 21:18 |
| nacc | InvisibleRasta: first remove teamviewer `sudo dpkg -P teamviewer` | 21:18 |
| cryptodan_mobile | Missing qt stuff kubuntu may have them | 21:19 |
| InvisibleRasta | ok done | 21:19 |
| nacc | cryptodan_mobile: i'm not the affected user :) | 21:19 |
| InvisibleRasta | now? | 21:19 |
| cryptodan_mobile | Oh lol sorry | 21:19 |
| tachikomas | InvisibleRasta, redo the last command. | 21:19 |
| nacc | InvisibleRasta: try `sudo apt-get install gdebi gdebi-core gnome-icon-theme` | 21:19 |
| nacc | InvisibleRasta: if it succeeds, then run `sudo gdebi /path/to/teamviewer.deb` | 21:20 |
| InvisibleRasta | got it ty | 21:21 |
| tachikomas | InvisibleRasta, working ? | 21:21 |
| InvisibleRasta | yeah | 21:22 |
| InvisibleRasta | ty alot | 21:22 |
| tachikomas | Dont forget, if you reboot, no more teamviewer :) | 21:22 |
| InvisibleRasta | yeye | 21:22 |
| UBUxUBU | i like doing ti mini installer better than the full install | 21:22 |
| InvisibleRasta | no prob | 21:22 |
| UBUxUBU | run much better | 21:23 |
| nacc | UBUxUBU: do you have an ubuntu support question? | 21:23 |
| === UBUxUBU is now known as UBuxuBU | ||
| UBuxuBU | yes why do theyinstall everything and then uninstall it allon the mini installer | 21:24 |
| tachikomas | UBuxuBU, Can you be more precise ? | 21:24 |
| nacc | UBuxuBU: that doesn't make sense, what are you referring to? | 21:24 |
| TJ- | UBuxuBU: for desktop? | 21:24 |
| Barones | man, does anyone has any tutorial to install ps3 bluetooth controller on ubuntu 18.04? | 21:24 |
| UBuxuBU | i noticed it takes longer to install the light one that n the full installer | 21:24 |
| TJ- | nacc: is this the copying of the squashfs content to the target then removing 'stuff' to make it minimal? | 21:25 |
| UBuxuBU | corret | 21:25 |
| UBuxuBU | the installer does that for you | 21:25 |
| nacc | TJ-: i have no idea, tbh, i've not used it at all | 21:25 |
| UBuxuBU | i would love to actually do a real mini install with out all those in / outs | 21:26 |
| TJ- | nacc: nor me, but that's my understanding of how the desktop installer works | 21:26 |
| UBuxuBU | would be even cleaner | 21:26 |
| UBuxuBU | its very snappy and i only installed what i want i feel like im running arch | 21:26 |
| nacc | TJ-: yeah, that could be | 21:27 |
| nacc | UBuxuBU: are you referring to the actual minimal iso? or the minimal option from the desktop installer? | 21:27 |
| nacc | UBuxuBU: you can file feature request bugs on launchpad, or see if one already is filed | 21:27 |
| UBuxuBU | oh wit do u mean i could have taken a mini iso right fromthe start?? | 21:28 |
| UBuxuBU | i took it during the install | 21:28 |
| UBuxuBU | thats what i want is a true mini iso installer with no in and out | 21:28 |
| nacc | UBuxuBU: the mini iso has no desktop on it at all, iirc | 21:29 |
| UBuxuBU | oh ok | 21:29 |
| nacc | UBuxuBU: that's a "true" mini iso :) | 21:29 |
| UBuxuBU | i wonder if the devs would makewhat i am seeing now as an iso | 21:29 |
| nacc | UBuxuBU: it's not worth the overhead to make a second installer | 21:30 |
| nacc | UBuxuBU: imo, and most likely what they would say | 21:30 |
| nacc | UBuxuBU: if you really care about cloning your system, use VMs and do exactly that with base images, etc. | 21:30 |
| UBuxuBU | well just think that had to the work of making an installer than installed everyhing and then removed a ton of it | 21:30 |
| nacc | no, they already had the whole first part | 21:31 |
| TJ- | UBuxuBU: mini.iso is about 50MB I think; is that small enough for you? | 21:31 |
| nacc | they only had to add the last step for the feature | 21:31 |
| UBuxuBU | well i like having the desktop , terminal installed | 21:31 |
| tachikomas | UBuxuBU, then use the minimal iso. | 21:32 |
| tachikomas | Or server edition, without any addin | 21:32 |
| UBuxuBU | ima keep what i have all that uninstalling it did doesnt seem to hurt anything so far | 21:32 |
| nacc | UBuxuBU: well, at this point you have your answers, and this isn't really support anymore. You can do what you want with the tools provided, or file feature requests (which are not requirements) on launchpad | 21:32 |
| UBuxuBU | no ur ok | 21:33 |
| UBuxuBU | tj- if i try the mini iso 50mb do i at least have terminal? | 21:34 |
| tachikomas | UBuxuBU, what do you want to do exactly ? | 21:35 |
| TJ- | UBuxuBU: yes, that's the point, it uses the regular text-ui (curses) debian-installer and fetches packages from the Internet. You could also consider a -server install which does the same thing but has the essential packages on the ISO | 21:35 |
| UBuxuBU | ok thanks | 21:35 |
| UBuxuBU | tachikomas, i dont know... but i may want to build one from scratch i guess...now that i see how thisruns. | 21:36 |
| tachikomas | Then go for LFS | 21:36 |
| tachikomas | if you want to build from scratch, do it really from scratch | 21:37 |
| UBuxuBU | then can i be called my own OS? | 21:37 |
| UBuxuBU | i suppose that is how new projects begin | 21:38 |
| UBuxuBU | ok ty | 21:38 |
| tachikomas | well your own distrib | 21:40 |

| Epx998 | How can I upgrade just 1 package with apt-get upgrade [package] - right now apt wants to upgrade everything marked for upgrade | 21:52 |

| guideX | if I wanted to put php 5.6 on latest ubuntu, is that a problem or hard to do? | 21:52 |
| nacc | guideX: not recommended. | 21:53 |
| nacc | Epx998: apt-get upgrade <pkg> ? | 21:53 |
| guideX | well, I need it for an old website to be updated later, etc | 21:53 |
| guideX | it's a temporary afair | 21:53 |
| nacc | guideX: then run that website in a VM or container running 14.04 | 21:53 |
| Epx998 | nacc: yeah except apt wanted upgrade a ton of other stuff as well | 21:53 |
| guideX | nacc, hmm ok thanks I'll try it in my vm | 21:53 |
| nacc | Epx998: when only specifying the one package? can you provide a log? | 21:53 |
| nacc | guideX: ondrej does provide a ppa for php but you are relying on them for support (not necessarily a bad thing) | 21:55 |
| Epx998 | nacc: sent in msg | 21:55 |
| Epx998 | ah nevermind its the newest | 21:55 |
| Epx998 | I didnt see that, i was following some dev's steps | 21:55 |
| nacc | Epx998: ok, so PEBKAC ? :) | 21:57 |
| Epx998 | nacc: yeah standard id-10-t error | 21:58 |

| astra` | the mobo is also alright | 22:31 |
| ben-linux23 | hi all, i just installed ubuntu 18.04.1 on my gigabyte AMD AB350 gaming 3 PC (custom built with my friend) and i have NO audio output it says pulseaudio main.c daemon startup failed, idk how to fix that i've been googling ALL over the place, ubuntu forums, nothing idk what to do, i need help | 22:31 |
| astra` | this started after the last update | 22:31 |
| astra` | unfortunately, it does not seem to be hardware related as i already stated above | 22:32 |
| ben-linux23 | i have a realtek alc1220 codec | 22:32 |
| UBuxuBU | try 18 04 astra and see if the problem goes away | 22:33 |
| astra` | i am on 18.04 | 22:34 |
| ben-linux23 | btw i was up ALL night till 7:30 am trying to fix this to no avail | 22:34 |

| nacc | ben-linux23: 1) it's not worth your time staying up all night to fix an audio problem | 22:35 |
| astra` | this whole nonstop rebooting started right after the system updated (automatic updates) | 22:35 |
| UBuxuBU | i meant hiig | 22:35 |
| ben-linux23 | macc, well i dunno how to fix the darn thing i googled ALL over i found ZERO fix | 22:35 |
| ben-linux23 | the ubuntu forums didnt tell me nything nor did the wiki | 22:35 |
| hiig | UBuxuBU: I'll try that as a last resort. For now, I want to try and see if I can find the problem first | 22:36 |
| hiig | It might be a hardware issue, as the system was freezing up before while running Windows 10 | 22:36 |
| UBuxuBU | when u installed it was it hard wired to the internet ben-linux23 ? | 22:36 |
| UBuxuBU | hiig did u run hardware diagnostics | 22:36 |
| ben-linux23 | no, i have no way of doing that, the router is in my dads office and my PC is in my bedroom and his desk hasnt room for my pc next to it which is where the router is and he has NO room for a monitor either | 22:37 |
| astra` | is there anyone who have experienced random reboots after a system update then progressed into constant rebooting? | 22:37 |
| ben-linux23 | not me | 22:37 |
| astra` | it just keeps rebooting over and over | 22:37 |
| hiig | Such as what? I've run memtest. No issues there. CPU was stressed using the stress package. GPU was tested with some random benchmark I forgot the package name of | 22:37 |
| guideX | on this page https://www.dev-metal.com/install-setup-php-5-6-ubuntu-14-04-lts/ it says to add the ondrej, with this command sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php5-5.6 | 22:37 |
| astra` | it is not a hardware issue | 22:37 |
| guideX | but itg says cannot add ppa please check that the ppa name or format is cotrrect | 22:38 |
| tachikomas | hiig, can you reexplain your problem ? | 22:38 |
| astra` | i already tested all my hardware part by part | 22:38 |
| UBuxuBU | its hard to test a PSU though | 22:39 |
| hiig | tachikomas: System was originally Win10. It would freeze after about 30 minutes on average, after boot. Swapped to 18.10. Took several attempts to install, as it would freeze some time after the copying files stage. | 22:39 |
| tachikomas | What kind of system ? | 22:39 |
| tachikomas | laptop ? desktop ? | 22:40 |
| tachikomas | old ? | 22:40 |
| hiig | After install, same symptoms as the Win10 system. When it crashes in 18.10, the sidebar and activity bar disappear | 22:40 |
| UBuxuBU | some folks have atiny piece of the mobo seated wrong and touching the case | 22:40 |
| UBuxuBU | anditwill do that | 22:40 |
| hiig | Desktop system. Probably about 6 or 7 years old | 22:40 |
| tachikomas | mhh. | 22:40 |
| UBuxuBU | the mobo might be shorting on the case | 22:40 |
| tachikomas | Just to know, have you try to upgrade the bios ? | 22:40 |
| UBuxuBU | or bad psu | 22:40 |
| hiig | tachikomas: Never tried messing with the BIOS | 22:41 |
| tachikomas | UBuxuBU, let's try software first :) | 22:41 |
| tachikomas | hiig, its as hard as booting on ubuntu :) | 22:41 |
| hiig | Before I do anything like that though, is there any log I should start looking at? | 22:42 |
| ben-linux23 | im stumped guys | 22:42 |
| tachikomas | mhh. | 22:42 |
| tachikomas | on linux you can try to look at syslog | 22:42 |
| tachikomas | it's always a good start | 22:42 |
| ben-linux23 | not to pry but idk how.. | 22:42 |
| tachikomas | cat /var/log/syslog | 22:43 |
| hiig | One sec. Waited for it to freeze again to see if I'm able to SSH into it... | 22:43 |
| ben-linux23 | it just put a ton of text on my screen idk what it says | 22:43 |
| tachikomas | hiig, i dont think so :/ but worth a try | 22:44 |
| tachikomas | ben-linux23, when does that happend ? | 22:44 |
| ben-linux23 | when does what happen | 22:46 |
| nacc | tachikomas: cat is really a mean tool to suggest someone new use for syslog | 22:47 |
| hiig | Damn, I don't remember the IP. WOuld have to figure it out on the next reboot. Alt + SysRQ REISUB doesn't work though | 22:47 |
| ben-linux23 | i cant help but agree with nacc.. | 22:48 |
| tachikomas | nacc, he dont look like someone new (ssh etc.. :) ) | 22:48 |
| ben-linux23 | i am new guys.. | 22:48 |
| tachikomas | ben-linux23, i wasnt talking to you. | 22:48 |
| ben-linux23 | tachikomas, i know i was just saying | 22:48 |
| tachikomas | i will try to help you as best as i can :) | 22:48 |
| ben-linux23 | but yeah im stumped how to fix this audio issue | 22:48 |
| tachikomas | so ben-linux23 you have no audio at all right ? can you open a terminal ? | 22:49 |
| ben-linux23 | yes im in a terminal rn | 22:49 |
| nacc | tachikomas: oh you didn't indicate who you were talking to. | 22:49 |
| tachikomas | ben-linux23, Do you know what a pastebin is ? | 22:49 |
| ben-linux23 | not really no | 22:49 |
| tachikomas | nacc, my fault :x | 22:49 |
| nacc | tachikomas: it's cool, i misattributed your reply, my fault | 22:50 |
| ben-linux23 | my mobo is a gigabyte ab350 gaming 3 btw | 22:50 |
| tachikomas | ben-linux23, ok, it's a website, you can paste a udge amount of code. | 22:50 |
| ben-linux23 | AH ok | 22:50 |
| tachikomas | and give us the link to look at the code :) | 22:50 |

| hiig | tachikomas: Was going to try flashing the BIOS, but it doesn't detect the file if I select the flash function. On the download page from MSI, it says "download and execute the file in USB pen drive only", but the files are for windows. So does this mean I can't flash if using any Linux distro? | 23:15 |
| UBuxuBU | that constant reboot things happens when the thermal paste is ruined under the cpu chip or when the psu is going .... | 23:16 |
| tachikomas | hiig, look if they have a iso :) | 23:18 |
| tachikomas | astra`, can you try a older kernel ? | 23:18 |
| hiig | tachikomas: not from what I can see | 23:19 |
| astra` | did you read the logs? | 23:21 |
