[00:00] <murthy> sammm: do you have your metapackage somewhere in a ppa?
[00:03] <sammm> no murthy , it's hosted via aptly
[00:03] <sammm> not a ppa,  just regular repo
[00:03] <CarlFK>  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BionicBeaver/ReleaseNotes#Get_Ubuntu_18.04.2_LTS  http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/releases/18.04.2/release/ (Less Popular Ubuntu Images)  404 :(
[00:03] <CarlFK> is .2 so new it hasn't synced up yet?
[00:03] <cim209> hello guys my server isn't showing the message of the day
[00:03] <cim209> error showing Failed to connect to https://changelogs.ubuntu.com/meta-release-lts. Check your Internet connection or proxy settings
[00:04] <tomreyn> CarlFK: it's so new it is not even relöeased, yet
[00:04] <tomreyn> wait 3 more days
[00:04] <tomreyn> it was postponed
[00:04]  * SkilletB1y 
[00:04] <CarlFK> tomreyn: thanks.
[00:05] <murthy> sammm: do you a link the meta file?
[00:05] <tomreyn> cim209: probably dns or other connectivity issues
[00:05] <cim209> tomreyn: everythin works
[00:05] <tomreyn> ping the host, see what the response times are
[00:05] <cim209> docker, nginx, etc all work
[00:05] <tomreyn> and curl the url
[00:06] <tomreyn> could also be a ipv4/ipv6 issue
[00:06] <cim209> ping is fine, averaging 30ms
[00:06] <cim209> curl shows the html
[00:06] <cim209> running cat /run/motd.dynamic shows the rest of the motd messages
[00:07] <tomreyn> well it must have been broken by the time of the latest update somehow.
[00:07] <tomreyn> curl -6 also works?
[00:08] <cim209>  System information disabled due to load higher than 1.0
[00:26] <cim209> tomreyn: turns out it was eternal terminal's fault
[00:26] <cim209> added "cat /run/motd.dynamic" to .zshrc
[00:33] <tomreyn> glad you found out
[00:35] <demox> hellop
[00:35] <demox> im looking for some help coding anyone able to help me out
[00:36] <cim209> tomreyn: yeah i am using et instead of ssh to my server
[00:36] <cim209> ssh user@server shows the welcome message but doing et user@server didn't
[00:36] <tomreyn> i see
[00:49] <fleabeard> is there any way I can have Chromium play mkv files?
[00:49] <fleabeard> encoded with h.264
[00:51] <fuxaches> I'm trying to figure out if I have a hardware issue or if a piece of software is causing my browsers to crash after some time.
[00:51] <fuxaches> I run 18.04.1 on an older Dell desktop. It seems after a few days, Firefox and Google browser both schitt the bed. I have run
[00:51] <fuxaches> my desktop, after a reboot for over a week and it's fine. It seems to happen when I use ThunderBird email and leave a tab open.
[00:51] <fuxaches> I am not a 100% sure about this, but it seems to be the pattern over the last month or so. Is anyone else having this issue or
[00:51] <fuxaches> does anyone have the same problem and believe it is because of another reason?
[00:52] <tomreyn> fleabeard: https://www.chromium.org/audio-video
[00:55] <fleabeard> tomreyn, thanks, so in other words. Use Google Chrome :(
[00:56] <tomreyn> fleabeard: i'd interpret it as "use non-patented formats instead"
[00:57] <fleabeard> tomreyn, I agree, however my security cam doesn't allow that scenario to exist for me :(
[00:57] <tomreyn> use vlc
[01:01] <tomreyn> firefox uses ciscos openh264, so may work there
[01:04] <tomreyn> fleabeard: actually chromium-browser on ubuntu should support h.264 via chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra
[01:11] <NDPTAL85> Did odd10bf /msg anyone else before he/she quit?
[01:11] <fleabeard> tomreyn, thanks, I'll czech it out!
[01:12] <OerHeks> NDPTAL85, if you feel you have an issue, please join #ubuntu-ops
[01:16] <NDPTAL85> I just thought it was weird cause they messaged me immediately after I joined and they quit the network.
[01:18] <OerHeks> indeed, that is not nice
[01:21] <fleabeard> does the "Software" app in ubuntu budgie not support searches for snaps or flatpaks?
[01:22] <fleabeard> I'd like to install Etcher to write an image to my sdcard but there's no results in it currently
[01:22] <fnkymon> go to https://etcher.io
[01:23] <fnkymon> Yo should just be able to download t and double click on it
[01:24] <fleabeard> thanks! I'll give that a try
[01:24] <fnkymon> Then, of course, t will be under "Accessories" in your menu
[01:25] <fnkymon> You're welcome!
[01:27] <horus125> Hey, could upgrading to Ubuntu 19.04 development branch corrupt my personal files, since its not stable yet?
[01:28] <fnkymon> No, of course not. However, you may want to back up those files to google drive or something
[01:30] <fnkymon> Yo should always have 3 copies. One on your drive, one in a cloud, one in a separate hard drive (or flash drive or whatever)
[01:30] <fnkymon> Yo should always have 3 copies. One on your drive, one in a cloud, one in a separate hard drive (or flash drive or whatever)
[01:30] <fnkymon> oops
[01:31] <OerHeks>  if you have no backup, your files are unimportant, and you take a risc using development versions.
[01:31] <fnkymon> Copy that
[01:32] <tomreyn> fnkymon: in case you'd like an apt repository: https://github.com/balena-io/etcher#debian-and-ubuntu-based-package-repository-gnulinux-x86x64
[01:32] <fnkymon> Thanks for the link tomreyn
[01:33] <tomreyn> yw
[01:33] <fnkymon> ;)
[01:33] <fnkymon> (Creepy wink) lmao
[01:33] <fleabeard> how odd, I installed etcher via their website and it was here, but after reboot it's not in my menu's anywhere anymore
[01:33] <fnkymon> Sorry 'm weird
[01:34] <fleabeard> it was in my "Other" menu
[01:34] <fnkymon> fleabeard, did yo try flashing Windows?
[01:34] <fnkymon> Ether is not for Windows
[01:35] <tomreyn> fleabeard: see the link i posted above for an apt repository for etcher
[01:35] <fnkymon> Try "Startup Creator"
[01:35] <fnkymon> It comes preinstalled
[01:37] <fnkymon> I actually spent the greater part of today trying to flash Windows 10 to a bootable USB and was ncucessful lol
[01:37] <OerHeks> woeusb if for windows iso's
[01:37] <fleabeard> thanks tomreyn, now I'm googling how to add that repo :)
[01:37] <OerHeks> https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2017/06/create-bootable-windows-10-usb-ubuntu
[01:38] <fnkymon> woeusb is good too
[01:38] <fnkymon> Bad kb grrrr
[01:38] <fleabeard> oh, the link even tells you how, noice!
[01:38] <fnkymon> lol noice
[01:39] <OerHeks> or just drag and drop on a windows pc, much faster
[01:39] <fnkymon> Whaaat?
[01:39] <fnkymon> How do yo do that?
[01:39] <fnkymon> I cannot get a bootable Windows 10 from Lubuntu
[01:40] <OerHeks> format usb fat32, drag the whole iso content *.* to the usb, and voila, bootalbe thingy
[01:40] <fnkymon> Oh shit
[01:40] <OerHeks> * on a windows pc
[01:40] <fnkymon> Thanks I'll try
[01:40] <OerHeks> woeusb takes 1,5 hrs
[01:41] <fnkymon> lol
[01:43] <fleabeard> tomreyn, that worked a treat, thanks again!
[01:43] <fnkymon> OerHeks, extract first, right?

[01:50] <lionhertz> Sorry I'm bored
[02:10] <CarlFK> tomreyn: about 18.04.02 - do you know if the .1 things have been removed from the mirrors?

[06:13] <netsrot> Hi, how do I run 32bit oss app on ubuntu cosmic AMD64 with pulse?
[06:14] <netsrot> when I try to install pulseaudio-utils:i386 which includes 32bit padsp it say it will uninstall amd64 pulseaudio.
[06:28] <technoob> Hey guys
[06:28] <technoob> Need some help
[06:30] <technoob> I already installed ubuntu server on my nuc and want to know what the end result looks like so i know it is already fully booted up
[06:31] <lotuspsychje> technoob: #ubuntu-server for likeminded volunteers
[06:43] <ivan_> hello, i need help formating usb stick. can someone please help?
[06:44] <guiverc_d> ivan_, best if you ask your question, if someone knows the answer (to your problem) they'll provide it (but be patient).   I use `gnome-disks` usually to format my thumb-drives
[06:49] <ivan_> when i try to format my usb stick i'm getting an error - "This partition cannot be modified because it contains the partition table; please reinitilaze layout of the whole device.
[06:51] <lotuspsychje> !usb | ivan_
[06:52] <ivan_> ubottu, i have installed the ubuntu on my computer from usb stick, now i want to get rid of the data on the usb
[06:54] <ledeni> ivan_:  what de you use?
[06:56] <ivan_> ledeni, what is "de"?
[06:57] <ledeni> ivan_:  desktop environment
[06:59] <ivan_> ledeni, Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS
[07:00] <ledeni> ivan ok that mean you use gnome try to search for disks like guiverc_d said
[07:04] <ivan_> ledeni, thank you i figured it out
[07:53] <paresh> I am getting error below when I am trying to download
[07:53] <paresh> E: The package linux-image-extra-4.4.0-141-generic needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.
[08:04] <MJCD> Why is alsa required when i'm using pulseaudio?
[08:04] <MJCD> just curious
[08:06] <Triffid_Hunter> MJCD: where do you expect pulse to send your sound without alsa? it'd be limited to network sinks only or something
[08:07] <Triffid_Hunter> MJCD: also, it's not like you get to choose your dependcy tree in ubuntu, need gentoo for that :P
[08:07] <MJCD> *shrug* even assuming pulseaudio wasn't a fully featured sound daemon
[08:07] <MJCD> it also has JACK installed and required
[08:07] <MJCD> so that would do just fine
[08:07] <MJCD> also gstreamer, various mpeg thing
[08:07] <MJCD> all required lol
[08:08] <MJCD> also why is CUPS so hard to remove all of haha
[08:08] <MJCD> CUPS and PDF utilities make up like 40% of my install
[08:08] <MJCD> like i'm never going to need to print from a vm lol
[08:09] <MJCD> also unlikely to need to view a pdf in a vm
[08:09] <MJCD> hell I only keep pulseaudio because I think giving the vm users system sounds is pretty lux
[08:09] <MJCD> all the media players besides chrome have been removed
[08:10] <Triffid_Hunter> MJCD: while pulse and jack do similar things, only fancy programs have jack support.. and gstreamer is a different layer again
[08:10] <MJCD> pulse can operate entirely standalone
[08:10] <MJCD> it in no way requires JACK or alsa
[08:11] <Triffid_Hunter> MJCD: how do you think it gets sound to the soundcard? that goes via alsa..
[08:16] <CarlFK> MJCD: do you know about u-server?
[08:18] <MJCD> Triffid_Hunter, you say that like alsa has some kind of magicks
[08:18] <MJCD> that nobody else can achieve

[08:39] <ryuo> kewladexx: that takes time. there's no silver bullet.
[08:51] <kewladexx> off topic, but what is a good channel on this server for people who just feel like chatting about random stuff?

[10:37] <Siilwyn[m]> Does anybody here have knowledge about Linux suspension? I'm on a macbook and can't suspend because `usb2` fails to\. I already disabled XHC1 in /proc/acpi/wakeup
[10:37] <Siilwyn[m]> More info here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1812561
[10:37] <Siilwyn[m]> I'm basically trying to find a workaround because having a laptop that can not suspend is really annoying.
[10:51] <mojtaba> Hello, does anybody know how can I set the language per application in focus? (and be able to change it later.)
[10:57] <dmnur> mojtaba: you can run applications like this: LANGUAGE=somelang yourapp (example: LANGUAGE=ru gedit)
[10:58] <mojtaba> dmnur: could you please explain more?
[11:04] <dmnur> mojtaba: LANGUAGE is the environment variable to specify preferred display languages (these are specified by their two-letter codes). You can pass it to a command used to start your application. For that you'll need to use the terminal. I don't really know of any easy way to do this from GUI.
[11:05] <mojtaba> dmnur: thanks, I will check it.
[11:06] <dmnur> mojtaba: for example, the command to start GNOME Calculator is "gnome-calculator". To run it in Japanese: LANGUAGE=ja gnome-calculator
[11:06] <mojtaba> dmnur: So, this will change the language of the interface? or it will change the input language keyword layout?
[11:07] <dmnur> mojtaba: ahh, I see. You meant keyboard layout.
[11:07] <mojtaba> suppose that I am working in different applications in different languages. I want to set it, so when I switch to the application, the input language switches to the specified one.
[11:07] <dmnur> mojtaba: one sec.
[11:08] <mojtaba> dmnur: thanks
[11:09] <dmnur> mojtaba: what Ubuntu version?
[11:09] <mojtaba> dmnur: 16.04 LTE
[11:09] <Blade> is lts
[11:09] <mojtaba> yes
[11:09] <mojtaba> my bad
[11:11] <dmnur> mojtaba: see here (also comments): https://askubuntu.com/a/146734
[11:11] <mojtaba> dmnur: thanks, just a sec.
[11:11] <Blade> mojtaba  モニ チカチテチ
[11:12] <mojtaba> Blade: monitored?
[11:13] <Blade> japan is work
[11:13] <mojtaba> dmnur: where is Keyboard Layout and Layouts?
[11:13] <Blade> kana
[11:13] <mojtaba> Blade: I used google translate.
[11:16] <Blade> https://i.imgur.com/vfjYQ6c.png
[11:16] <Blade> mojtaba トイイ
[11:16] <Blade> see
[11:17] <mojtaba> トイイ: toy?
[11:18] <dmnur> mojtaba: it's in the Settings app.
[11:18] <mojtaba> dmnur: I just saw it.
[11:21] <mojtaba> Blade: What is your desktop? Is it Gnome?
[11:22] <BluesKaj> Howdy folks
[11:25] <Blade> mojtaba  xubuntu xfce
[11:25] <Blade> is the same
[11:25] <Blade> just add japan
[11:26] <Blade> mojtaba  xfce like gnome 2
[12:06] <catphish> i'm looking for information about which AMD graphics cards are supported in 18.04, is there a list anywhere?
[12:06] <catphish> i could only find https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver which seems outdated
[12:08] <guiverc_d> catphish, the wiki has this (but also outdated, it's up to the community to update it which doesn't always happen) https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsVideoCards
[12:08] <konrados> Hi. This might sound like package - specific question, but I have sort of general one, regarding installing stuff. I have virtualbox v. 5.1.x - the same thing appears to be in `apt search "virtualbox"` - but on their website they have 6.x available for my ubuntu (xenial) - https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads - i download it, open it, a 'package manager' opens, and all it says is "done" after 0.001 second. How, what? I don't have
[12:08] <konrados> 6.x.. `dpkg -l  | grep 'virtualbox'`  gives me 5.1.38
[12:09] <guiverc_d> catphish, this also has some info (and links to sites for video support) - https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/installation-guide/i386/ch02s01.html
[12:09] <konrados> let me try from terminal...
[12:09] <guiverc_d> catphish, http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Hardware-HOWTO.html  (is one link from aforementioned "supported hardware" wiki)
[12:11] <guiverc_d> konrados, Ubuntu 16.04 is from 2016.April (hence 16.04), and whilst security fixes are backported to it, it doesn't get newer software (unless community package & add it to 'universe', usually it's only done for latest) - so if you want later software, you upgrade to 18.04 for example
[12:11] <catphish> guiverc_d: thanks, i'll have a look at those
[12:12] <guiverc_d> konrados, ^ and when I said latest, I meant latest release (packaging currently is for 19.04)
[12:12] <konrados> guiverc_d, thanks, yes, I have it in my todo list :) but they, oracle, on their website *do* have a version for me....
[12:13] <konrados> guiverc_d, - here: https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads - they have a link for 'Ubuntu 16.04'
[12:14] <guiverc_d> don't forget, if you `dpkg -i` install software, security-updates won't be added until you re-ad them yourself, where as they are grabbed when from ubuntu sources (even if backported to older packages)
[12:14] <sl4ck> l
[12:19] <konrados> guiverc_d, yes, that one I understand :) BTW, I started from command line and it just started :) I don't know why the GUI thing didn't want to. So it's installing now \(^▽^)/ - and yes, I will soon go to 19.x :) Thanks!
[12:20] <konrados> It woooorks. So now I can try ubuntu 19.x on a vm :)
[12:20] <guiverc_d> 19.04 is currently the development release, why it's getting all the packaging - not a stable release (until april) [even if some of us use it]
[12:37] <talx> hello guys,
[12:38] <talx> # Language pack selection
[12:38] <talx> d-i pkgsel/language-packs multiselect he, en
[12:38] <talx> why it doesn't continue
[12:38] <talx> in the kickstart ?
[12:50] <tomreyn> talx: this doesn't look wrong to me. maybe the next line is the issue?
[12:53] <tomreyn> providing (a lot) more context could be beneficial to your goals.
[13:00] <ioria> talx, no idea; maybe change the iso code  : heb
[13:00] <admin07> haii
[13:19] <mobile_c> how do i get the 32 bit version of gcc
[13:20] <mobile_c> so i can compile using -m32
[13:21] <ioria> afaik, you just use -m32
[13:22] <mobile_c> but i get
[13:22] <mobile_c>  /usr/bin/ld: cannot find Scrt1.o: No such file or directory
[13:23] <Meili> mobile_c: google says: sudo apt install gcc-multilib
[13:33] <mobile_c> ok
[13:33] <talx> yo
[13:33] <talx> I don't understand why the kickstart doesn't continrue when it reaches the language
[13:34] <talx> # Language pack selection
[13:34] <talx> #d-i pkgsel/language-packs multiselect he, en
[13:34] <talx> d-i debian-installer/locale string en_US
[13:34] <talx> I tried two methods which in the installer it reaches the language section it does check what I want but dont move forward
[13:36] <tomreyn> talx: use the utf-8 variant of locales
[13:37] <talx> do you have an example
[13:37] <talx> localechooser/supported-locales multiselect en_US.UTF-8
[13:37] <tomreyn> d-i localechooser/supported-locales multiselect en_US.UTF-8, nl_NL.UTF-8
[13:37] <talx> like tis ?
[13:38] <tomreyn> right
[13:39] <tomreyn> i don't know whether this is what's causing your installation to get stuck.
[13:43] <RangerBob> So I know I'm late to the convo, but did you do a shasum check of the iso?
[13:45] <talx> well
[13:45] <talx> its  not stuck like freezes
[13:45] <talx> just won't "click" continue
[13:46] <talx> yea still won't continue
[13:47] <talx> I don't find anything in goolge about it to be honest
[13:48] <talx> oh found something :p
[13:48] <aima> cedajoce12345
[14:07] <Linuxuser> What will Ubuntu 19 be like?
[14:07] <talx> do anyone have an example for a kickstart.cfg file for ubuntu ?
[14:07] <talx> I can't make the language selection make a continue there
[14:09] <lotuspsychje> Linuxuser: 19.04 support in #ubuntu+1
[14:09] <Meili> is kickstart even properly maintained? Shouldnt you use preseed?
[14:10] <missmanor> hi guys i need to know if lenovo ideadpad 330 ryzen3 work good with ubuntu or other type of distro
[14:10] <lotuspsychje> missmanor: ubuntu works on many brands, lenovo might need updated bios firmware to avoid acpi issues
[14:10] <pragmaticenigma> missmanor: The best thing to do is use the Live mode of the install image. That will let you try out Ubuntu or other distro before making the decision to install it
[14:11] <missmanor> ok
[14:11] <lotuspsychje> missmanor: we have alot of users with hibernate/acpi issues on lenovo, but i dont want to generalize
[14:11] <missmanor> ok
[14:11] <missmanor> i try manjaro
[14:12] <lotuspsychje> missmanor: see also: https://certification.ubuntu.com/
[14:12] <missmanor> and im getting firmware bug error
[14:12] <lotuspsychje> missmanor: acpi issues might go across several distro's
[14:14] <talx> Meili: how would do it
[14:14] <pragmaticenigma> missmanor: Do note that this channel only support official Ubuntu flavors. If you have issues with Manjaro, you will need to seek out their support channels
[14:15] <missmanor> i know im just letting you know the problem its ok thks for the bios advise
[14:15] <missmanor> xiao
[14:16] <Meili> talx: what are you asking me?
[14:43] <talx> Meili: how would do it in preseed, what google suggests won't work
[14:47] <roracle> hey guys, this is impossible and i don't know why: the PPA works and everything just like it says it should, but trying to install "DVDStyler" isn't working at all.  Does anyone have any information that could help me out with this?
[14:48] <roracle> in a nutshell: every document says the PPA should allow "sudo apt install dvdstyler" but that doesn't show up at all.  This page was updated this january: http://www.de-help-desk.nl/how_to_install_dvdstyler_30_in_ubuntu_amp_linux_mint-593.html
[14:50] <JimBuntu> roracle, Have you sudoa apt get update , lately?
[14:50] <JimBuntu> *sudo, not sudoa
[14:53] <SlidingHorn> roracle: also, see "/msg ubottu !ppa" (without  quotes
[14:55] <EriC^> roracle: you might need to run "sudo apt-get update" first
[14:55] <talx> so no one know to confirm keyboard layout on ubuntu with preseed ?
[14:57] <tomreyn> roracle: which ubuntu release is this actually?
[14:58] <tomreyn> !yy.mm | Linuxuser: there won't be "Ubuntu 19"
[14:59] <roracle> sorry guys, got side tracked.  JimBuntu and EriC^ yes i did update, SlidingHorn i'll do that in a moment, and tomreyn this is 18.10 release
[14:59] <JimBuntu> roracle, I don't see 18.10 being listed as supported by the PPA
[15:00] <roracle> SlidingHorn: that told me what i already knew
[15:00] <roracle> JimBuntu: oooh i didn't realize that was how it worked.  see, i did this from the UbuntuStudio at first, tried to take it to regular Ubuntu and nothing was working at all
[15:00] <roracle> JimBuntu: but the UbuntuStudio website has DVDStyler listed as one of the apps they package for video authoring
[15:00] <leftyfb> https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuhandbook1/+archive/ubuntu/dvdstyler/?field.series_filter=cosmic
[15:01] <roracle> generally, i'm confused
[15:01] <leftyfb> that PPA works
[15:01] <roracle> leftyfb: cool i'll check it out
[15:01] <JimBuntu> Well, I didn't see 18.10 listed in the guide as supported, but it does seem to have a build for it... I guess the docs are out of date.
[15:01] <Ool>  dvdstyler 3.0.4-0build1~ubuntu18.10
[15:01] <SlidingHorn> roracle: I was just letting you know that the support for PPAs is limited, at best. That's all :)
[15:01] <Ool> here: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuhandbook1/+archive/ubuntu/dvdstyler/
[15:04] <roracle> JimBuntu and Ool why won't it show up after i update the packages?
[15:04] <roracle> seriously, try it out!
[15:05] <roracle> oh man, if you go to package details, it says the 18.10 package failed to build
[15:06] <tomreyn> roracle: sudo /bin/true; nc termbin.com 9999 < <( sudo apt-get update 2>&1; apt-cache policy dvdstyler 2>&1 )
[15:06] <tomreyn> roracle: okay in that case you can skip this
[15:06] <roracle> okay.
[15:07] <roracle> see, i'm starting up a small business of transferring VHS to DVD, so I wanted to test that software out to see how it worked. Is there any alternative that other people prefer that works as well?
[15:09] <Meili> talx: what are you using? kickstart or preseed? The example preseed file has a keyboard layout selection example. Are you saying the example doesn't work for you?
[15:11] <roracle> tomreyn: i think I'll learn Bombono instead.  i wish point upgrades wouldn't break software from 6 months ago u.u;;;
[15:11] <Ool> you can put pressed lines into a KS file :)
[15:11] <talx> Meili: preseed
[15:11] <tomreyn> roracle: https://alternativeto.net/software/dvdstyler/?platform=linux

[15:12] <talx> d-i keyboard-configuration/xkb-keymap=us
[15:12] <talx> this is my keyboard selection settings
[15:12] <talx> still showing continue on keyboard layout screen
[15:12] <Meili> talx: "d-i keyboard-configuration/xkb-keymap=us" is not correct if I look at the example
[15:13] <talx> show me the example please
[15:13] <Meili> talx: according to the example file you should have "d-i keyboard-configuration/xkb-keymap select us"
[15:13] <talx> thank you
[15:14] <talx> going to try it now

[15:15] <rollappuser> yo whats up
[15:15] <cognitiaclaeves> I'm trying to get specific syslog messages to be forwarded to a log aggregator. I'm having a little trouble figuring out how to write a filter to persist the messages to a file, and also send the message to the log aggregator.
[15:15] <theblackpearl> i barely know what any of that means cognitiac lol
[15:16] <cognitiaclaeves> It seems like the output from journalctl is not consistent with the fields to filter for rsyslog.
[15:16] <tomreyn> cognitiaclaeves: this question may be better addressed to #ubuntu-server
[15:16] <blackflow> cognitiaclaeves: can you give an example? and that's in the context of forwarding to syslog, yes?
[15:18] <cognitiaclaeves> @blackflow, I'll post to #ubuntu-server, thanks.
[15:18] <talx> Meili: its still showing the continue button in the keyboard layout selection
[15:19] <seven-eleven> hi
[15:19] <seven-eleven> i want to install intelligj IDEA should I use snap or install the normal deb?
[15:20] <blackflow> seven-eleven: is there a .deb package even?
[15:20] <seven-eleven> blackflow, dont find one, seems they only distribute a snap :|
[15:20] <seven-eleven> a snap a new thing, read it a few times now
[15:21] <blackflow> yeah.
[15:21] <seven-eleven> mhm
[15:22] <seven-eleven> "universal linux packages" sounds good
[15:22] <blackflow> and misleading.
[15:22] <lordcirth_> I used snap to install ipfs, works well. But I wouldn't use a snap if there's a .deb.
[15:23] <Meili> talx: I'm sorry to hear that. I'm currently don't have the time to help you further, but: make sure the keyboard selection is somewhere at the beginning of the file and any followup rules are correct.
[15:24] <Meili> talx: you could try if this file works https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/installation-guide/example-preseed.txt and if so, modify it to suit your needs
[15:25] <talx> okay ty
[15:25] <talx> for your time and effort

[15:41] <lordcirth_> B1ack0p, sudo apt install -f?
[15:42] <lordcirth_> It will try to auto-fix
[15:42] <benjamin_w> sudo dpkg-reconfigure libdvd-pkg  @Black0p
[15:42] <benjamin_w> try this

[15:43] <benjamin_w> B1ack0p: try re configure libdvd and try again
[15:43] <B1ack0p> is it fixed?
[15:44] <benjamin_w> re run `sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade` and I think you good to go
[15:44] <OerHeks> that dpkg libdvd is needed to run the dvd codec installer
[15:44] <B1ack0p> thank you benjamin_w  now no error
[15:44] <B1ack0p> :)
[15:44] <OerHeks> see the dvd manual?
[15:44] <benjamin_w> np glad you fix it
[15:44] <B1ack0p> what dvd?
[15:45] <B1ack0p> i have dvd rom maybe because of that?
[15:45] <OerHeks> *if* you want to play dvd movie, or some mediafiles need it too
[15:46] <B1ack0p> nope i usually stream online
[15:46] <benjamin_w> I thought you need it if you have dvd rom
[15:46] <OerHeks> oke, then you are fine
[15:50] <Sicnus> What is the default clipboard manager in Ubuntu 18.10 and how do I turn it off?  It is killing my copy/paste buffer.
[15:51] <OerHeks> there is no standard clipboard manager?
[15:52] <blackflow> $32k question: how is it "killing" your copy/paste buffer?
[15:52] <teward> Sicnus: there is no 'default' clipboard manager beyond the standard clipboard.
[15:52] <blackflow> I'm gonna hazard a guess and say you're not running a DE that's unifying the TWO xorg clipboards probably?
[15:52] <Sicnus> when I highlight text... it stays highlighted for a second then disappears.  I noticed this happened before and I turned off the clipboard thing in the top right.  Now that I've rebooted it has the same behavior but the clipboard isn't present.
[15:52] <Sicnus> Running default ubuntu "unity" gnome.
[15:53] <blackflow> unity OR gnome
[15:53] <Sicnus> I guess it's Unity.
[15:53] <blackflow> and what cliboard thing "in the top right"? do you have a non-standard extension there?
[15:53] <Sicnus> Whatever came with it.   I didn't install it.
[15:53] <teward> Sicnus: if it's 18.10 then you're on GNOME
[15:53] <Sicnus> I'll try a different DE to see if I have the same issue.
[15:53] <Sicnus> brb
[15:53] <teward> Sicnus: it sounds like you have an extra extension installed
[15:55] <Bundestrojaner> hello, I'm struggling with installing Kubuntu 18 on a Intel ATOM-Tablet (Medion E1240T). I've created a usb-stick following this: https://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/UNetbootin/#Verwendung-fuer-U-EFI
[15:55] <Bundestrojaner> The USB-Stick is not listed in the Tablet's Boot-Manager at start...
[16:00] <OerHeks> Bundestrojaner, we do not recommend using unetbootin, surprised the german wiki gives that advise
[16:00] <OerHeks> does that cheap Medion E1240T have a fully 64 bit uefi?
[16:01] <OerHeks> and check if the usb works on an other machine, saves you time too
[16:02] <Bundestrojaner> OerHeks: i don't know if it recommends it, i'm using unetbootins since years and never had problems with it. I've also tried 7z x, same result.
[16:02] <Bundestrojaner> When i boot the installed OS (debian Stable), it recognizes and mounts the USB
[16:02] <Sicnus> Figured it out.  So there was some tool:   clipit  (wth?)  It was running...  (Oh and I was running Ubuntu not Unity DE)  anyway...  the clipit had a setting to wipe my history every 1 second.
[16:02] <Sicnus> lawl
[16:03] <OerHeks> oh, debian ..
[16:03] <OerHeks> Sicnus, someone must have installed clipit
[16:03] <Bundestrojaner> OerHeks: i've read it doesn't support 64bit, but will this keep the USB-stick from being recognized?
[16:03] <Bundestrojaner> "oh, debian .." - that's why i want to change to kubuntu ;)
[16:03] <Sicnus> No, I'm on Ubuntu 18.10 (upgraded from 18.04 and 17.10/17.04 )
[16:04] <Sicnus> anyway figured it out.  That was annoying.
[16:05] <OerHeks> Bundestrojaner, what does not support 64 bit? your medion?
[16:05] <OerHeks> if so, use a 32 bit iso and install legacy
[16:06] <Bundestrojaner> OerHeks: ok, i'll try the 32bit iso. What do you mean by "install legacy"?
[16:06] <Bundestrojaner> and which method of creating the usb install medium do you recommend?
[16:06] <OerHeks> legacy = non uefi
[16:06] <OerHeks> on linux, dd, on windows rufus or etcher
[16:07] <OerHeks> !usb
[16:07] <Bundestrojaner> OerHeks: the Boot manager says "EFI Boot Devices". i don't know if it supports non-uefi
[16:08] <benjamin_w> how can I scroll channel topic in weechat?
[16:10] <OerHeks> Bundestrojaner, me neither, but efi boot devices, that is where the ubuntu usb should be visable
[16:13] <Bundestrojaner> OerHeks: and how do i create a "non-uefi" install stick?
[16:14] <yuradoc> hello. Kali Linux related. i made some manipulation with 'su', 'sudo', 'runuser' I've got that my terminals run starting 'hlkali#', title contains 'Terminal -', desktop default background image disappeared
[16:14] <yuradoc> what's wrong?
[16:15] <ioria> Bundestrojaner, i think you need this included in your usb media: https://github.com/hirotakaster/baytail-bootia32.efi
[16:16] <Bundestrojaner> ioria: simply copy it to the usb disk's root folder?
[16:17] <ioria> Bundestrojaner, in /EFI/boot
[16:17] <Bundestrojaner> thx, i'll try it
[16:18] <ioria> Bundestrojaner, https://community.medion.com/t5/Notebook-Netbook/E2216T-Linux-installieren/td-p/37427
[16:18] <OerHeks> ubuntu is hybrid, legacy & uefi  .. Medion E1240T is cherry trail
[16:18] <OerHeks> but he has debian installed before, so he surely know what to do
[16:19] <ioria> Bundestrojaner, do you have Debian on that thing ?
[16:19] <Bundestrojaner> ioria: yes, debian stable 32bit
[16:19] <Bundestrojaner> ofcourse it came with win10
[16:19] <ioria> Bundestrojaner, ok
[16:21] <Bundestrojaner> but i NEED 64bit, more and more applications doesn't support 32bit - which is quite understandable, amd64 has been released in ~2003
[16:22] <ioria> Bundestrojaner, well, Ubuntu does not ship 32bit desktop ed. anymore
[16:23] <Jubei> Hi. I was having some problems using a library (tensorflow) and had to modify my $PATH in /etc/environment to make it work. The problem now is that in bash every time I press TAB, I get an error message
[16:23] <Jubei> pytho-bash: /usr/local/cuda-9.0/bin${PATH/: bad substitution
[16:23] <Jubei> n3^C
[16:23] <Jubei> here's my /etc/environment: http://codepad.org/08hDogoT
[16:24] <Jubei> I'm pretty sure it's broken, I just don't know how to fix it
[16:26] <Jubei> I'm guessing this is the offending line: PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/usr/local/cuda-9.0/bin${PATH:+:${PATH}}"
[16:28] <yvyz> Jubei: echo $PATH | nc termbin.com 9999
[16:29] <Bundestrojaner> ioria: it succesfully booted! :) THX!!!
[16:29] <Jubei> yvyz https://termbin.com/58dk
[16:29] <yvyz> Don't know why you'd set as self referential ${PATH} in $PATH
[16:29] <ioria> Bundestrojaner, good job
[16:29] <Jubei> yvyz I received some instructions that I was suppoed to put in my bash_rc
[16:30] <yvyz> Jubei: try completely removing ${PATH:+:${PATH}}
[16:30] <Jubei> bashrc or bash profile don't remember which. But I thought I'd put it in /etc/environment so that ALL users benefit from it
[16:30] <yvyz> If you need to attach the $PATH var you can append it to the end of the environment PATH as usual with :$PATH
[16:31] <Jubei> yvyz i guess my first question is, was it right to modify /etc/environment for a path change that I want to affect all users?
[16:31] <yvyz> That is not wrong
[16:32] <Jubei> yvyz removing ${PATH:+:${PATH}} fixed things by the way. I don't know why that was there
[16:32] <Jubei> thank you.
[16:32] <yvyz> NP
[16:33] <Jubei> yvyz so when /etc/environment is read by the login process, the $PATH environment variable already exists?
[16:33] <yvyz> In essence, you were writing /etc/environment PATH with local user PATH, which is taking from etc/environment PATH... you have a loop condition
[16:33] <Jubei> i.e. I'm overwriting it there?
[16:33] <yvyz> Then, that variable argument placement was making the path section for /usr/local/cuda-9.0/bin looking like /usr/local/cuda-9.0/bin//usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/usr/local/cuda-9.0/bin${PATH:+:${PATH}}:/snap/bin
[16:34] <Jubei> i see
[16:34] <yvyz> Jubei: cat ~/.profile
[16:34] <yvyz> And you will see how the PATH is effected per user
[16:34] <EriC^> Jubei: this is what i have in my environment file, it's pretty stock PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games"
[16:35] <Jubei> yvyz there's no mention of /etc/environment in there ?
[16:35] <EriC^> oddly enough mine has a PATH= unlike yours where the line only contains the list
[16:35] <yvyz> Further path adjustments are stored in /etc/profile as well
[16:36] <yvyz> /etc/environment is for system wide adjustments/assignments. /etc/xprofile is the PATH var for your x-session. /etc/profile/ is for individual shells and /etc/<shellid>.<shell>rc is for single instance shells while you are in them
[16:36] <yvyz> THey build on each other to provide your entire shell $PATH
[16:37] <yvyz> Jubei: This might help you: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/37676849/where-is-path-variable-set-in-ubuntu
[16:37] <EriC^> it's odd to me how he has just a line there, whereas i have PATH=something
[16:37] <Jubei> yvyz I'll read up on it thank you for the help.
[16:37] <Jubei> EriC^ I also have PATH=
[16:37] <yvyz> NP
[16:37] <Jubei> http://codepad.org/0i5ojTSt
[16:38] <yvyz> EriC^: it is not weird, it is normal.
[16:38] <yvyz> The only issue was reflecting the $PATH (which will be the users final PATH) into the /etc/environment. not only that, it was called at the wrong time.
 erotic eggplant? is that the next ubuntu?
[16:39] <yvyz> To fix the specific error and keep the ${PATH} assignment, he could have changed it to /usr/local/cude-9.0/bin:${PATH}
[16:39] <teward> !offtopic | Shigo
[16:39] <yvyz> Without the colon, the PATH construction was directly appending to /bin and referencing a directtory which does not exist
[16:40] <Jubei> EriC^ what you're looking at in https://termbin.com/58dk is the result of the echo command. It's not a system config file
[16:40] <EriC^> Jubei: where did this come from? ${LD_LIBRARY_PATH:+:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}} it seems to have a coding error
[16:40] <Jubei> EriC^ I think somebody in #tensorflow told me to do it so that python3 can use tensorflow
[16:40] <EriC^> there's a ":" before it, and after the + another ":", so it would end up with ::stuff here
[16:41] <EriC^> instead of blabla:stuff
[16:41] <Jubei> EriC^ : I was wondering if that's a mistake as well
[16:41] <EriC^> it seems legit
[16:41] <EriC^> it means if the variable is set, use it
[16:41] <Jubei> EriC^ I see.

[18:43] <qwebirc69795> Hello I did install 18.04 server to my old home server box and man things have changed. I did select LVM and use of entire disk but how I can check that how much space I actually got available or does that volume extend automatically?
[18:45] <wilbert> try df -h
[18:45] <tomreyn> JohnRivera: it doesn't extend automatically. lvs shows your logical volumes.
[18:46] <tomreyn> pvs shows physical volumes (the storage the LVs actually reside on), vgs shows volume groups (just a way of grouping logical volumes).
[18:46] <JohnRivera> tomreyn: I thought so. How I do check that how large current Logical Volume is?
[18:46] <tomreyn> you will notice that you only have a fracture of your available storage in use currently.
[18:47] <tomreyn> lvs tells you
[18:51] <JohnRivera> tomreyn: am I right that I can add more harddrives to my logical volumes later on to extend space available on my server?
[18:52] <tomreyn> you can extend space available to the VG this way, yes
[18:52] <JohnRivera> okay
[18:53] <tomreyn> JohnRiverabut you can also just add more VGs if you prefer, or just partitiont he space and put file systems on those partitions the old way, or whatever you like to do
[18:53] <tomreyn> LVM2 seems ot be new to you, it really isnt that new. and the other concepts of partition table, partitions, software raid continue to exist.
[18:54] <tomreyn> what's new is really just the installer.
[18:54] <tomreyn> zfs is rather new, btrfs is a bit new.
[18:55] <JohnRivera> tomreyn: yeah it is new for me, my project was pretty much frozen and almost forgotten for couple of years, so returning to it and seeing so many things changed is kinda surprising.
[18:55] <tomreyn> but ext4 is still kind of the default
[18:57] <tomreyn> the new server installer still has a few short comings so some people prefer the alternative server installer with its old but (mostly) working "debian-installer"
[18:57] <JohnRivera> tomreyn: where to get that?
[18:57] <tomreyn> on the website, under server -> downloads
[18:58] <tomreyn> JohnRivera: what will also be new to you is systemd, i guess. generally you should read the release notes.
[18:58] <tomreyn> !releasenotes
[18:58] <JohnRivera> tomreyn: Yeah I really should
[19:07] <TheWild> hello
[19:07] <TheWild> how is the program (VNC/RDP client) called, if I had to run it from a command line
[19:08] <OerHeks> remmina?
[19:08] <TheWild> possibly - I still have this program. Thank you OerHeks.
[19:08] <OerHeks> have fun!
[19:13] <vlad__> e
[19:14] <slingamn> i have an issue where periodically X freezes completely, most likely due to a bug in the i915 driver
[19:14] <slingamn> https://gist.github.com/slingamn/caefd156b3a461e6c52ea30971b0478f dmesg output
[19:15] <slingamn> this used to happen more often; i set `intel_iommu=igfx_off` on the kernel command line, which seems to mitigate somewhat, but it can still happen
[19:20] <caldarella> * Hi guys, I have a problem with conky 1.10.8 the problem is appear and disappear of text in the desktop (flickering)
[19:20] <caldarella> * this is my settings https://pastebin.com/cgfQWHH3
[19:23] <tomreyn> slingamn: the hang looks somewhat similar to the oops, and neither should be there.
[19:23] <OerHeks> caldarella, some manuals give a clue: double_buffer yes
[19:25] <OerHeks> caldarella, and more tweaks to fix stuff, old page, still valid https://saraithegeek.wordpress.com/2009/04/15/how-to-fix-conky-flickering-borders-and-drop-shadows/
[19:25] <tomreyn> slingamn: is the system fully patched? (i notice the kernel is)
[19:25] <slingamn> yeah
[19:26] <tomreyn> slingamn: do you suspend / resume? does this also happen before suspend? do oyu have ACPI errors on boot?
[19:26] <slingamn> i never suspend or resume (this is a desktop)
[19:26] <slingamn> i don't see anything that looks like an ACPI error
[19:27] <slingamn> i should mention, this gets triggered by specific applications, in particular image galleries in Eye of Gnome
[19:27] <caldarella> OerHeks regarding double_buffer I had intentionally disabled it, because enabling it creates visualization problems
[19:27] <slingamn> the traces suggest that i915's data structures are getting corrupted?
[19:27] <tomreyn> slingamn: can you file a bug (ubuntu-bug linux) since i can't find a matching report.
[19:27] <slingamn> will do
[19:28] <tomreyn> slingamn: ubuntu-bug / launchpad will suggest possibly related bug reports while oyu file this one.
[19:30] <OerHeks> caldarella, oke, maybe it is the gpu driver, what is the output of >> lspci -nnk | grep -i vga -A3 | grep 'in use'
[19:30] <OerHeks> in a pastebin, please
[19:30] <tomreyn> slingamn: and please consider posting the bug # here once you got it.
[19:31] <slingamn> will do
[19:31] <caldarella> OerHeks Kernel driver in use: radeon
[19:32] <OerHeks> caldarella, radeon, then i have no clue, for nvidia there were options in the settings..
[19:32] <OerHeks> vsync and such,
[19:32] <beepbeep_> guess what happened after rebooting my system for first time in three days this morning, tomreyn.. :(
[19:33] <beepbeep_> guess I'm forced to fix my issue now. :P
[19:34] <tomreyn> beepbeep_: hello. not sure, what happened?
[19:34] <caldarella> OerHeks the problem I do not think is due to the video driver, I think it's due to a wrong configuration of the conky settings
[19:34] <JohnRivera> got my probelm solved for now so I am out, might get back when my homebox is up and running properly
[19:34] <beepbeep_> tomreyn: one of the commands that I ran undid one of my boot options, making my system freeze after 5s of startup.
[19:35] <beepbeep_> tomreyn: I'm guessing it was the purge-all
[19:36] <beepbeep_> or maybe it was this one "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade".. can't remember if I ran that one though.
[19:36] <slingamn> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1815508
[19:37] <tomreyn> slingamn: thanks, will have a look later.
[19:37] <slingamn> awesome, thanks
[19:38] <tomreyn> slingamn: i mean, just out of interest - i doubt i will be able to add anything useful to it
[19:39] <tomreyn> beepbeep_: neither apt --purge autoremove nor apt update nor apt dist-upgrade should prevent the system from booting unless there is another serious issue.
[19:40] <tomreyn> beepbeep_: i'm looking at irc logs, trying to remember what the issue was exactly. if you can sum it up again this might make it easier (in case you were looking for guidance tonight)-
[19:41] <beepbeep_> tomreyn: I'm going to try a couple of things based on our previous conversation. I'll be back later and attempt to explain everything in case of failure.
[19:41] <beepbeep_> o/
[19:42] <tomreyn> good luck!
[19:44] <tomreyn> slingamn: hmm this looks like you didn't use ubuntu-bug to file it. can you "apport-collect 1815508" on an affected system?
[19:45] <barosn> how can i burn few debian ISO files in one iso?
[19:45] <tomreyn> (that's unless you didn't do it on purpose to not potentially exhibit serial numbers or the like)
[19:45] <tomreyn> barosn: on which ubuntu version?
[19:45] <barosn> 19.04
[19:46] <tomreyn> !ubuntu+1 | barosn
[19:46] <barosn> !ubuntu+1
[19:47] <barosn> 18.04
[19:47] <barosn> yes disco
[19:47] <slingamn> what data is that going to collect exactly?
[19:47] <leftyfb> barosn: If you are running Ubuntu 19.04(disco), then you need to go to #ubuntu+1 for support. We do not support unreleased versions of ubuntu here.
[19:48] <barosn> ok
[19:48] <barosn> sorry
[19:48] <barosn> ... do you know about previous versions though ?
[19:48] <benjamin_w> does touchbar MBP can handle linux well?
[19:48] <leftyfb> barosn: go to #ubuntu+1 for support

[20:00] <swimllamaswim> Hey, so I'm trying to get my server up and going with Lubuntu, just a basic older supermicro board. I was able to get the installer booted with acpi=off but now that it's installed, it won't boot. The computer reboots shortly after selecting start lubuntu, regardless of if it's in recovery or not
[20:01] <babou_tunt> has the whole "Prime Display" nvidia driver issue been figured out yet, where you cant get the external monitor past 30hz?
[20:01] <babou_tunt> I haven't found anything on google
[20:02] <beepbeep_> tomreyn: I have failed to add a boot parameter to my kernel. I can boot into GNU GRUB. But all tutorials tell me that I need to highlight the kernel that I want to use and press the "e" key. I never get to highlight a kernel. When I press "esc" while booting, I boot straight into GRUB. Don't have the change to select anything.
[20:02] <tomreyn> slingamn: looks like you got a reply already. i didn't see nouveau crashing on what you posted on the gist.
[20:03] <slingamn> i'm not using any nvidia hardware, or nouveau
[20:03] <tomreyn> beepbeep_: what does "grub" look like? is a back background and a blinking cursor at a text prompt, like a shell? or is it a colorful menu where you can navigate up/down?
[20:04] <beepbeep_> black, cursor text prompt. When I tab, I get a list of available commands.
[20:04] <dipped12> 4931049275647512
[20:05] <tomreyn> !ot | dipped12
[20:05] <tomreyn> beepbeep_: you'd get this when you hit escape even after the menu was drawn, can you reboot there again? or wait a few minutes and i'll try to remember how to load the menu from there
[20:06] <ioria> swimllamaswim, try to remove acpi=off
[20:06] <swimllamaswim> ioria, I added acpi=off to grub and it did actually boot
[20:06] <beepbeep_> tomreyn: makes sense, I was repeatedly hitting escape.
[20:06] <ioria> swimllamaswim, ok
[20:07] <swimllamaswim> now that it's installed, I mean. wouldn't boot either way without it
[20:07] <tomreyn> beepbeep_: is this an uefi or bios boot?
[20:07] <ioria> swimllamaswim, does it boot now ?
[20:08] <beepbeep_> tomreyn: I don't know what "uefi boot" or "bios boot" means. How can I check?
[20:08] <swimllamaswim> It does, obviously some things aren't quite right (dont think power management is working properly) but yeah
[20:08] <beepbeep_> tomreyn: I am dual booting windows. I'm on Windows right now.
[20:08] <ioria> swimllamaswim, ok;   paste   cat /proc/cmdlineù
[20:08] <ioria> swimllamaswim, ok;   paste   cat /proc/cmdline
[20:10] <lordcirth_> beepbeep_, ls /sys/firmware/efi
[20:10] <swimllamaswim> BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-4.18.0-10-generic root=UUID=bb84f908-73ec-418a-a444-cc646445b9db ro quiet splash acpi=off
[20:10] <lordcirth_> beepbeep_, also for windows: https://itsfoss.com/check-uefi-or-bios/
[20:11] <ioria> swimllamaswim, ok, first update the kernel and then try to reboot ; sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade; reboot
[20:11] <beepbeep_> lordcirth_: on windows, my bios mode is UEFI
[20:11] <swimllamaswim> alrighty
[20:12] <tomreyn> beepbeep_: okay, so you boot using UEFI. then try booting into linux again, keep hitting escape again but try to stop doing so when the grub menu shows up
[20:13] <beepbeep_> tomreyn: okay, thx, I'll give it a go
[20:13] <beepbeep_> brb
[20:18] <swimllamaswim> Updated everything, still rebooting without acpi=off
[20:19] <ioria> swimllamaswim, have you rebooted ?
[20:19] <swimllamaswim> yes
[20:20] <ioria> swimllamaswim,  paste again   cat /proc/cmdline
[20:20] <tomreyn> swimllamaswim: there is https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1814555 but you shouldn't have it if you're fully patched.
[20:21] <swimllamaswim> it's the same thing as last time except vmlinuz-4.18.0-15
[20:21] <ioria> current for cosmic is 4.18.0.15
[20:22] <ioria> swimllamaswim, ok, try to shutdown
[20:23] <ioria> swimllamaswim, and restart obviously
[20:23] <tomreyn> cat /proc/version would tell whether it's 4.18.0-15 build #16
[20:24] <ioria> swimllamaswim, the reason i'am asking is that acpi=off might stop a correct shutdown
[20:24] <swimllamaswim> Alrighty, I'll try again
[20:24] <swimllamaswim>  
[20:25] <tomreyn> babou_tunt: if this is a bug, then there should be a bug report about it, where you could subscribe to, potentially help testing + find a fix, and get notified as it's fixed.
[20:26] <swimllamaswim> seems to be hanging during shutdown
[20:26] <ioria> swimllamaswim, how much ?
[20:27] <swimllamaswim> As in not doing anything, I cant switch out of the x server, just stuck on the lubuntu shutdown screen with one of the dots illuminated
[20:28] <ioria> swimllamaswim, but it works in 'reboot' ?
[20:28] <swimllamaswim> It rebooted itself earlier after updating, seemed to work
[20:28] <swimllamaswim> I'll try rebooting it though
[20:29] <ioria> swimllamaswim, if reboot works, i'd rather focus on 'shutdown'
[20:29] <swimllamaswim> okay
[20:29] <ioria> swimllamaswim,  from tewrminal   lxsession-logout ; sudo halt -p
[20:30] <swimllamaswim> Okay, give me just a minute to get it back up
[20:36] <demetris> hello
[20:36] <swimllamaswim> It's still just hanging as soon as I click shutdown
[20:37] <demetris> i need to start a one time tftp server from inside a folder serving one file(*.img) at 192.168.1.1 so i can recover my router
[20:37] <ioria> swimllamaswim,  and the 2 cmds above ?
[20:37] <demetris> any help appreciated
[20:38] <swimllamaswim> lxsession-logout just pulled up a menu with options to reboot, shut down, hibernate, etc
[20:39] <demetris> sorry tftp client
[20:39] <demetris> NOT server
[20:40] <swimllamaswim> sudo halt -p just causes the same thing
[20:42] <ioria> swimllamaswim,  try this   in /etc/default/grub   and after run sudo update-grub   GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="acpi_osi=! \"acpi_osi=Windows 2015\""
[20:42] <tomreyn> demetris: did you already choose a tfpt client then?
[20:42] <demetris> i have no idea
[20:42] <demetris> no i didnt
[20:43] <demetris> found tftpd32 but is windows
[20:43] <tomreyn> demetris: do you just need to transfer a file or do anything else?
[20:43] <demetris> push a file to the uboot of my router looking at 192.168.1.1 for a client with an image
[20:45] <demetris> tomreyn: if i run this inside the folder that holds the image will it work?
[20:45] <demetris> atftp --option "mode octet" --option "timeout  60" --verbose --trace -p -l code.bin 192.168.1.1
[20:46] <demetris> code.bin is the image
[20:48] <tomreyn> demetris: i'm only a little into the tftp client, not into atftp. have you looked at the atftp man page? have you looked how others have done it with your very router model?
[20:48] <demetris> nothing found
[20:48] <demetris> so i will try this and see if it works
[20:48] <simon_> Hi
[20:49] <demetris> will be offline for a while
[20:49] <tomreyn> demetris: you did not find the man page? which router is it?
[20:49] <tomreyn> oh well
[20:49] <OerHeks> do you have curl installed? curl --upload-file ./code.bin https://transfer.sh/code.bin
[20:49] <simon_> Ubuntu Mate on Raspi is nice c:
[20:50] <OerHeks> and you get some https://transfer.sh/<blablabla>/code.bin
[20:50] <shadoxx> Anyone know the "right" way of tweaking the ulimit for mariadb?
[20:51] <shadoxx> i could edit the systemd service file directly, but that doesn't see "right"
[20:51] <ikonia> shadoxx: what do you mean the right way
[20:51] <shadoxx> the best practices way
[20:51] <ikonia> what's wrong with the current limit
[20:52] <ikonia> are you using an interactive shell, or an environment
[20:52] <shadoxx> It goes against the recommendations
[20:52] <shadoxx> for most "performance tuning mysql" guides i've been reading
[20:52] <ikonia> what does ?
[20:52] <ikonia> what is "wrong" with the current limit
[20:52] <shadoxx> I'm 15+ year senior sysadmin. In the past I would've thrown it in /etc/security/limits.conf
[20:52] <shadoxx> but systemd has changed some things
[20:53] <ikonia> again .....what is wrong with the current limit
[20:53] <shadoxx> I don't need a deep dive into my reasoning, I know this is what I want to do, just trying to figure out the best and accurate way of doing it
[20:53] <ikonia> when you're asking for best practices, understanding the context is key
[20:53] <OerHeks> jups, put a file in /etc/security/limits.d/ folder https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/457458/issue-on-updating-limits-conf-on-ubuntu-server-18-04
[20:53] <shadoxx> But for this simple question, it's not tho
[20:53] <ikonia> so asking for what is wrong with the current limit is a pretty reasonable question
[20:53] <shadoxx> OerHeks: thank you!
[20:53] <ikonia> shadoxx: it is, as you can set it many ways
[20:54] <shadoxx> ikonia: the problem is that with systemd, i can edit the unit file directly, but that's going to get wiped on an update
[20:54] <shadoxx> at the least, it'll ask me every time, potentially
[20:54] <ikonia> shadoxx: again - no-one is saying to do that
[20:54] <shadoxx> thus why i'm asking for best practices.
[20:55] <ikonia> shadoxx: but it's important to understand context to give you correct advice
[20:55] <ikonia> shadoxx: right, and why I'm telling you the best practice depends on context
[20:55] <shadoxx> but it's not tho.
[20:55] <ikonia> but it is
[20:55] <OerHeks> linux finally get rid of populating config files directly, it is a convenience and security pleasure
[20:55] <shadoxx> ok, give me a situation where editing the systemd unit would be "best practice" vs editing the security limits in /etc?
[20:56] <ikonia> shadoxx: there are more than just those ways
[20:56] <ikonia> and limits may cause different problems, depending on context
[20:56] <ikonia> you have an answer you're happy with, I suggest you follow it
[20:56] <shadoxx> ikonia: not when it's a standalone database server. and literally those are the only two ways you should be editing the ulimit
[20:56] <ikonia> no it's not
[20:56] <ikonia> there are multiple ways
[20:56] <shadoxx> ok, school me then.
[20:56] <ikonia> but you have an answer you like, so stick with it
[20:57] <shadoxx> ikonia: pretned like i don't know anything. how would *you* go about doing it
[20:57] <OerHeks> i hope i gave no bad answer
[20:57] <ikonia> shadoxx: pretend that you've answered the questions I asked...no
[20:57] <ikonia> OerHeks: nothing wrong with it if it meets the use case
[20:57] <shadoxx> OerHeks: nah, that's the way i was leaning anyway
[20:57] <shadoxx> ikonia: it's a standalone database server, freshly minted.
[20:58] <ikonia> shadoxx: why are you telling me this ?
[20:58] <shadoxx> the context is that it's replacing an existing server which is heavily loaded, and colocated with other services
[20:58] <shadoxx> ikonia: you wanted context
[20:58] <ikonia> shadoxx: that's not the context
[20:58] <ikonia> shadoxx: I asked what the problems where with the current limits,
[20:58] <ikonia> shadoxx: you have an answer - use it
[20:58] <ikonia> I'm not interested in begging for information
[20:59] <shadoxx> sounds like you don't know what you're talking about. simple questions require simple solutions. not a deep dive into my infrastructure
[20:59] <ikonia> shadoxx: pretty sure I do
[20:59] <shadoxx> cool
[20:59] <ikonia> hence why I asked for the context to try to get you the best option
[20:59] <shadoxx> :thumbs_up:
[21:00] <ikonia> if it was black and white I'd just say dump it in the limits.d

[21:06] <esro> how do i untrash my rig... except getting rid of nvidia ?
[21:07] <ikonia> getting rid of nvidia ?
[21:07] <ikonia> what has that got to do with your file systems ?
[21:07] <esro> well i am blaming nvidia.
[21:07] <esro> :D
[21:07] <ikonia> why ?
[21:07] <esro> you are offtopic
[21:08] <esro> fsck says filesystem is in use... while being ro
[21:08] <ikonia> what ?
[21:08] <tomreyn> caldarella: hmm right, apparently there's just a mailing list
[21:08] <esro> ....
[21:08] <ikonia> esro: yeah, you can run fsck on an mounted file system
[21:09] <esro> no i cant.
[21:09] <esro> that is the thing
[21:09] <esro> it broke for no reason
[21:09] <tomreyn> caldarella: maybe try #dns
[21:09] <esro> and i am blaming nvidia... because it was last update
[21:09] <ikonia> esro: there will always be a reason
[21:09] <esro> yes, like why dont we just nuke the fuckers
[21:10] <ikonia> what makes you think it was/has anything to do with nvidia
[21:10] <ikonia> esro: tone down the language please
[21:10] <esro> it was last update.
[21:10] <esro> sorry. i am not going tune down. i prefer to leave. bye.
[21:15] <beepbeep_> tomreyn: sooo .. totally fixed my stuff. I'm still on the mainline kernel though. Enough for one day.
[21:15] <tgm4883> cd ~/y
[21:16] <beepbeep_> tomreyn: so my problem was nouveau nvidea drivers.
[21:16] <beepbeep_> tomreyn: causing system freeze ~5s after startup.
[21:16] <tomreyn> beepbeep_: glad you got things into a working state again.
[21:17] <tomreyn> beepbeep_: did you file a bug there, yet?
[21:17] <beepbeep_> tomreyn: haha .. well .. now it's back to the original problem.
[21:17] <beepbeep_> tomreyn: not sure if I have to. Think it has already been filed. Let me link you some resources.
[21:18] <tomreyn> only launchpad.net counts, bonus points for bugzilla.kernel.org (or the relevant mailing lists)
[21:19] <beepbeep_> tomreyn: Here is a thread of people trying to fix ubuntu on Dell XPS. https://www.reddit.com/r/Dell/comments/9puckt/ubuntu_1810_on_dell_xps_15_9570/ . Heres the resource that ultimately helped me the most: http://www.palindrome.co.uk/p/blog-page_23.html
[21:20] <tomreyn> see above ;-)
[21:23] <tomreyn> beepbeep_: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1797538 is mentioned on https://www.reddit.com/r/Dell/comments/9puckt/ubuntu_1810_on_dell_xps_15_9570/
[21:24] <tomreyn> do you see those messages on your log then?
[21:24] <beepbeep_> tomreyn: how can I check that?
[21:25] <tomreyn> if the system doest freeze, run dmesg (from an ssh session if the graphical output fails and tty switching, too)
[21:26] <tomreyn> *doesn't freeze
[21:28] <tomreyn> beepbeep_: you can also "dmesg --follow" which will keep printing newly logged messages on screen
[21:29] <tomreyn> beepbeep_: "freezes does 5s after boot" mean that it freezes entirely, or can you still do things such as reboot with ctrl-alt-f3 followed by ctrl-alt-del ?
[21:30] <tomreyn> if so, the ssh approach should help getting logs.

[21:38] <lol2> Hey guys, what's going on in here.. anything interesting?\
[21:44] <beepbeep_> tomreyn: a "freeze" means that I can't use mouse or keyboard. To clarify, my system doesnt freeze anymore right now.
[21:47] <tomreyn> beepbeep_: yes, but to report a bug you'd want to capture the error when it occurs.
[21:47] <tomreyn> so you'd need to reproduce it, and then capture it somehow.
[21:47] <beepbeep_> so you're saying to remove the bootoptions and capture it somethow
[21:48] <tomreyn> i guess so, if removing those boot options triggers it.  does removing those boot options also trigger it on this mainline kernel?
[21:48] <beepbeep_> tomreyn: ha .. haha! the tought gives me a little shiver.
[21:48] <beepbeep_> tomreyn, yes, removing the boot options will trigger it on this mainline kernel.
[21:49] <tomreyn> if so, install the latest mainline kernel and boot into that, first witht he extra kernel options set, then without.
[21:50] <tomreyn> here's a script you can use to download and verify the latest mainline kernels https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tomreyn/scripts/master/wget_kernel_mainline.sh
[21:50] <tomreyn> don't try the RC (release candidate) ones but the latest stable, should be 4.20.something
[21:51] <riiot232> hello
[21:51] <tomreyn> 4,20,7 exactly
[21:51] <tomreyn> hi riiot232
[21:51] <riiot232> hey
[21:51] <riiot232> so what is this chat all about?
[21:52] <beepbeep_> tomreyn: okay, I'll do this next weekend. wasn't planning on spending time on this today. Kind of had to.. my system freezing and all .. :P
[21:52] <riiot232> ok
[21:52] <tomreyn> riiot232: /topic
[21:53] <riiot232> how do I look at commads?
[21:53] <tomreyn> beepbeep_: yeah, this is a bit advanced, i admit
[21:53] <beepbeep_> tomreyn: I'm gonna grab a cup of tea, watch some tv. Thx for all the help, I'll ping you later when I find the courage next weekend to reproduce this problem.
[21:53] <tomreyn> beepbeep_: cool. maybe see you then
[21:54] <riiot232> see yaa beepbeep_
[21:54] <Bashing-om> riiot232: In terminal ' man <command> ' .
[21:54] <riiot232> ok
[21:54] <beepbeep_> o/
[21:54] <riiot232> so this is like terminal
[21:54] <riiot232> but with all the commands starting with /
[21:55] <tomreyn> !irc | riiot232
[21:55] <Bashing-om> riiot232: Sorta .. the '/' depends on your client.
[21:55] <riiot232> ok
[21:55] <riiot232> thx
[22:07] <puxavida> I did an update today on 18.10 and got this: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/gZcmtFw5bB/
[22:08] <puxavida> It does the udevadm trigger stuff then quits at 80%.  I've never seen that before.  Is an OK process for an update?
[22:08] <puxavida> I checked and the update did get installed.  Just looks odd the way it quit at 80%
[22:09] <puxavida> The update was for package libu2f-udev
[22:10] <pragmaticenigma> probably output wasn't updated prior to reach 100%... if you can confirm the new package is installed, I think that's all that is needed
[22:10] <puxavida> ok.  thanks
[22:10] <pragmaticenigma> I don't now what that process was doing personally, one of the developer channels for ubuntu might be able to help or direct you
[22:11] <Bashing-om> !info libu2f-udev | puxavida

[22:14] <puxavida> I looked at dpkg.log and it looks like it installed ok.
[22:23] <swift110> hey
[22:27] <Nightmarevega> hi
[22:27] <Nightmarevega> lazor
[22:42] <pragmaticenigma> swift110: Hello, is there an Ubuntu support question we can help answer for you?
[22:42] <piyaXO> how to connect to an IRC site
[22:43] <pragmaticenigma> piyaXO: This channel specializes in Ubuntu support related questions. If you would like to learn more about IRC, you can try asking in #freenode
[22:45] <piyaXO> recently installed ubuntu ; unable to get audio from youtube
[22:46] <piyaXO> pragmaticenigma:tried to install vapi - by installing libva; but gmm doesnt instal
[22:46] <pragmaticenigma> !info vapi
[22:47] <pragmaticenigma> piyaXO: I don't know what vapi is
[22:47] <piyaXO> goal is not to install vapi however i need help in setting up audio driver for a recent installation of ubuntu on intel motherboard
[22:49] <pragmaticenigma> piyaXO: Ubuntu doesn't require drivers like Microsoft Windows does. Everything you need should work without any intervention. If you recently installed Ubuntu, and had no audio, you should have come here first. Someone here would be more skilled at trying to help
[22:50] <pragmaticenigma> Since I am unaware of what vapi is or what it means, I'm going to assume that you installed software from a site other than through Ubuntu's package management or software center. This channel only supports applications obtained through Ubuntu's software center or its package management applications
[22:51] <piyaXO> Pragmaticenigma : Understood, Thanks. I just came to know about IRC just a while ago too. regarding vaapi  I just attempted tried google found the link  https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/intel-vaapi-driver from github etc..
[22:52] <piyaXO> Pragmaticenigma : could not find any from software center. Installed vlc player
[22:52] <pragmaticenigma> !info vaapi
[22:52] <pragmaticenigma> !info intel-vaapi
[22:52] <pragmaticenigma> !info intel-vaapi-driver
[22:53] <OerHeks> did you install restricted extras?
[22:53] <piyaXO> Pragmaticenigma: i dont have media for playing in vlc to check audio is working. I tried browser and opened youtube but cant hear anythin .Please advise on how to get the audio
[22:54] <piyaXO> no have not installed any restricted extras .
[22:54] <pragmaticenigma> piyaXO: well for starters... vaapi is for the video driver, not audio
[22:54] <piyaXO> for the add-ons there are some already installed. do i need to install all the addons.
[22:54] <pragmaticenigma> what web browser are you using piyaXO
[22:55] <piyaXO> yeah felt it might have audio too:-p
[22:55] <piyaXO> Firefox
[22:55] <OerHeks> !info info ubuntu-restricted-extras
[22:55] <OerHeks> !info ubuntu-restricted-extras
[22:55] <OerHeks>  for the audio part, you would
[22:55] <piyaXO> video plays but cant hear anything
[22:56] <OerHeks> restart your browser after install, i guess
[22:57] <mobius> Have there been some outages of the ubuntu servers? I'm getting a lot of transient network errors like "E: Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ ...404  Not Found [IP: 91.189.88.152 80]"
[22:58] <OerHeks> mobius, maybe there is a sync going on, wait a minute and update lists with apt update
[22:58] <ber532k> mobius: did you do apt update?
[22:59] <mobius> ber532k: yeah I did
[23:00] <piyaXO> Pragmaticenigma  Installed sound application
[23:01] <piyaXO> Pragmaticenigma  and changes the profile to HDMI
[23:02] <jonfatino> Hello I have booted to a ubuntu 16.04 livecd. I have a preseed kickstart file. I want to launch the ubiquity installer (debian installer) and just pass the preseed kickstart file and have it install. How do I do this? I have read 50 docs online and I want to do this in a livecd rather than pass it as a kernel/boot paramater.
[23:08] <mozambique> hello
[23:08] <mozambique> greedings
[23:08] <di_> Hello!
[23:09] <mozambique> is there a diference between ubuntu and mint
[23:09] <mozambique> or diferent flavours
[23:09] <mozambique> ups
[23:10] <mozambique> a channel for cha
[23:10] <mozambique> *chat
[23:10] <Bashing-om> mozambique: Short answer - yes there are many difference.
[23:10] <Bashing-om> !mint | mozambique
[23:10] <ber532k> the main version of mint is based on unbuntu, but is not an official part (just some guys who copied ubuntu things and added their own changes)
[23:11] <ber532k> s/unbuntu/ubuntu/
[23:11] <mozambique> ok
[23:11] <mozambique> thanks
[23:11] <mozambique> I cant put irc.spotchat.org in xchat???
[23:12] <jeremy31> xchat is no longer supported
[23:13] <mozambique> what
[23:13] <mozambique> is hexchat
[23:13] <Bashing-om> !hexchat | mozambique
[23:14] <mozambique> !hexchat
[23:14] <jeremy31> hexchat is based on xchat but still is supported
[23:14] <mozambique> nice
[23:14] <mozambique> I will sudo it
[23:14] <jeremy31> The spotchat IRC should be in the hexchat server list
[23:15] <mozambique> jeremy do we know
[23:15] <mozambique> looks like I saw you
[23:15] <OerHeks> jeremy31, unlikely that ever happens
[23:15] <OerHeks> ( connected to the main #freenode server that is)
[23:16] <OerHeks> mozambique, you need to setup a new connection
[23:17] <jeremy31> mozambique: click on ircs://irc.spotchat.org
[23:17] <mozambique> ok
[23:18] <mozambique> ok I have to fo
[23:19] <mozambique> ok I have to go
[23:19] <mozambique> sorry about that
[23:19] <mozambique> ok
[23:19] <OerHeks> mozambique, have fun!
[23:21] <jeremy31> Only one reason to want to be on spotchat IRC
[23:31] <Linuxuser> jeremy31 what's spotchat?
[23:31] <fleabeard> is the only way to install thunderbird in ubuntu is by using the snap package? It's all that shows up when I search for 'thunderbird' in software manager
[23:31] <fleabeard> Linuxuser, spotchat is another irc network
[23:32] <jeremy31> fleabeard: Thunderbird should be installed by default
[23:32] <Linuxuser> Ohh okay, got it thanks.
[23:32] <fleabeard> jeremy31, sorry, should have mentioned I installed ubuntu-budgie minimalist
[23:32] <fleabeard> got myself a rather limited netbook :(
[23:33] <jeremy31> The only active channels on spotchat IRC are linux mint
[23:34] <fleabeard> and if you want linux mint support, might I suggest their forum over their irc channel. That channel is off the charts toxic.
[23:34] <Bashing-om> fleabeard: There are lighter mail clients than thunderbird :)
[23:34] <fleabeard> Bashing-om, oh I'm sure hehe, I'm still very new to linux and thunderbird is often touted around as being the best
[23:36] <fleabeard> at any rate, the snap thunderbird offered doesn't seem to play any notification sounds when new mail arrives. Even when I set a specific file for it to use. I get nothing :(
[23:37] <Bashing-om> !info thunderbird | fleabeard
[23:38] <Bashing-om> !info sylpheed | fleabeard
[23:39] <fleabeard> I'll give that a shot Bashing-om thanks!
[23:40] <Bashing-om> fleabeard: I have run both .. and for my use case ... sylpheed suits .( core install too )

[23:53]  * riiot232 hello
[23:53] <riiot232> umm
[23:53] <pjs> I run 18.04, currently on kernel 4.15.0-43-generic, is there an issue with grabbing a mainline kernel from kernel.ubuntu.com and installing it? Should be fine right?
[23:54] <ryu0> pjs: those kernels aren't signed, so if you use secure boot, the system won't boot again.
[23:54] <pjs> ryu0: that's a bios setting?
[23:54] <ryu0> pjs: yes, but only relevant if you're using UEFI.
[23:55] <pjs> ryu0: I am 99% sure I have secure boot disabled
[23:55] <ryuo> pjs: well, you asked about possible issues.
[23:55] <pjs> ryuo: yea, thank you! I will verify before doing it
