gambl0r3EriC^^, what does that command do?00:09
bray90820_EriC^^: It says password incorrect because I set a password so should I enter my passowrd00:09
OerHeks-s show00:09
EriC^^gambl0r3: it shows the status of the swaps00:10
gambl0r3EriC^^, oh ok00:11
EriC^^bray90820_: yeah, enter the root password00:11
gambl0r3EriC^^, https://pastebin.com/yZLCP21B00:11
bray90820_EriC^^: Then what?00:12
EriC^^bray90820_: type "mount -o remount,rw /"00:12
EriC^^gambl0r3: type "sudo swapoff -a"00:13
EriC^^gambl0r3: that will deactivate the swap for right now00:13
gambl0r3the command does nothing00:13
gambl0r3wtf. i dont want to deactivate it00:14
gambl0r3tell me what a command does before telling to type it00:14
EriC^^gambl0r3: 1 language, 2 you need to deactivate it before making it bigger, 3 i did tell you 1sec later..00:14
gambl0r3you should say step 2, before telling 'type <cmd>'00:15
gambl0r3just saying00:15
Gerowengambl0r3: If you're looking for help with something, it would behooves you not to get angry with somebody who is volunteering time they could be spending on something else to help you out.  He could have just told you to google it and figure it out yourself.00:16
EriC^^gambl0r3: well, you asked how to enlarge swap, i cant write a newspaper about the whole ordeal00:16
gambl0r3Gerowen, dont be so sensitive. im not angry.00:16
gambl0r3sometimes people say, do this...do that without even explaining what they're trying to do00:17
EriC^^gambl0r3: i dont know how much you know/want to know about the process00:17
EriC^^maybe be like 'explain each step to me, i care to learn/know'00:18
gambl0r3i dont want a newspaper article but a simple one line explanation would be nice....'type <cmd>.  this command does X'00:18
OerHekswhy should we copy paste..00:19
EriC^^gambl0r3: anyhow, type 'sudo rm /swapfile'  that removes the swapfile00:19
gambl0r3EriC^^, should i close all my applications?00:20
gambl0r3before i type that command?00:20
EriC^^gambl0r3: no00:21
gambl0r3ok done. now what00:21
EriC^^gambl0r3: how big do you want the new swap?00:22
gambl0r3i dont know, how big should i make it?00:22
bray90820_EriC^^: I did the mount and remount now what?00:22
gambl0r3i have 8gb of ram00:22
EriC^^gambl0r3: that depends on your needs and whether you want hibernation to work you'll need 8gb in that case00:23
EriC^^bray90820_: type 'update-initrd -u k all'00:23
gambl0r3whats the difference between swap and ram?00:24
gambl0r3i have 8gb of ram, that should be more than enough for what im doing00:24
mmarconmswap its used when i ran got out00:24
gambl0r3mmarconm, what? that made no sense00:24
EriC^^gambl0r3: how did you gather that 1.x/2gb is being used?00:25
gambl0r3EriC^^, i have no idea. it just builds up over time00:25
EriC^^gambl0r3: maybe something you're running has a memory leak and it's eating up your ram?00:25
gambl0r3i can only think of firefox00:26
bray90820_EriC^^: Command not found00:26
EriC^^gambl0r3: type "ps aux | sort -k3" and look at what has the memory consumed00:26
gambl0r3i mostly use firefox, my code editor, libreoffice. thats pretty much it00:26
gambl0r3and hexchat00:27
EriC^^gambl0r3: what's the memory right now at? try "free -h"00:27
EriC^^bray90820_: sorry, "update-initramfs -u -k all"00:28
gambl0r3thats a useful command.00:28
NorthwestVeganhtop will also give you the mem usage of the processes00:28
gambl0r3EriC^^, https://pastebin.com/0Cp2uRAA00:28
gambl0r3i use htop. thats how i know my swap is almost full00:28
EriC^^gambl0r3: the memory looks good right now, 4gb free00:29
gambl0r3ok i still dont know how much swap i should allocate00:30
gambl0r33gb?00:30
NorthwestVeganyou could also ps -aux to get the pid and use pmap to see all the usage of that process00:30
gambl0r3if my swap is full but i still have lots of ram, will that affect the performance of my computer?00:31
bray90820_EriC^^: Then what?00:31
umhelloheya00:33
umhellodoes anyone know how to fix enp0s300:33
umhellonot being seen by networkmanager00:33
umhelloand yet00:33
umhellocontrollable by ifconfig00:33
umhellolike, ifconfig sees it but networkmanager does not00:33
tomreyn!enter | umhello00:33
ubottuumhello: Please try and keep as much of your info as possible on ONE line - easier to follow for everyone.00:33

RtMF|afkumhello: check /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf if "nmcli dev set enp0s3 managed yes" doesn't work00:35
* RtMF|afk may have gotten set and dev in the wrong order there00:35
RtMF|afkand the config file will have a mention of it listed in umanaged or managed=no, right now I'm on my VPS which doesn't happen to have it installed00:35
EriC^^bray90820_: type 'reboot'00:36
RtMF|afk>.> is it worth unafking with ~20min left?00:36
EriC^^gambl0r3: no it wont00:36
EriC^^gambl0r3: keep a look at the memory and see if it was full at some point so that it started using swap00:37
gambl0r3EriC^^, oh i see. so it only uses swap whenever my ram is full?00:37
EriC^^i think so, i'm not entirely sure00:37
EriC^^i guess not though, i'm actually using 10mb of swap though i dont think my memory was full, so i guess not00:38
gambl0r3i dont think so either cause i dont know i've ever reached max ram usage00:38
umhelloRtMf|afk this is the config file:   GNU nano 2.9.3       /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf                    [main] plugins=ifupdown,keyfile  [ifupdown] managed=true  [device] wifi.scan-rand-mac-address=no00:38
EriC^^i'd say just make sure the memory isn't getting full and all is good, no need to make the swap larger unless you want hibernation00:39
bray90820_EriC^^: Back to emergency mode00:39
EriC^^gambl0r3: did you run the "sudo rm /swapfile" comman btw?00:39
gambl0r3EriC^^, ya00:39
EriC^^bray90820_: see if it mentions anything before the emergency mode, it might have to do with the fsck it ran earlier, the filesystem might be missing files00:39
EriC^^gambl0r3: ok, to make the swap file again type "sudo fallocate -l 2G /swapfile"00:40
EriC^^gambl0r3: then type "sudo chmod 600 /swapfile && sudo mkswap /swapfile"00:40
gambl0r3that creates a swap file with 2gb right?00:40
EriC^^yeah00:40
gambl0r3EriC^^, thanks00:41
EriC^^gambl0r3: no problem, btw what does "cat /proc/sys/vm/swappiness" give? default is 6000:42
umhelloso um does anyone know what can be done to make it amnagaed00:42
umhello*managed00:43
umhellousing 18.04.2 LTS btw00:43
gambl0r3EriC^^, 60. what does that mean?00:44
EriC^^gambl0r3: it's how much the kernel will tend to use the swap, higher value means more swap usage00:44
gambl0r3ok00:45
bray90820_EriC^^: These are currently the only errors I can find00:45
bray90820_https://www.dropbox.com/s/9alfe6qg4jisdlx/Error%202.jpg?dl=000:45
EriC^^bray90820_: try logging in, then typing "journalctl -xb"00:46
tomreynumhello: is this a new installation, was network manager working before, did you make changes to it which broke it?00:46
umhelloyes, this is a new installation. it was working before. stopped working after I added iscsi or added a keyscript00:47
umhellopossible one of those influenced it?00:47
umhelloor the initramfs hook but unlikely00:47
tomreynumhello: depends on how you did it, i guess.00:48
tomreynumhello: is this a server or desktop installation?00:48
umhellodesktop00:48
tomreynumhello: with iscsi storage?00:48
umhellouh no idea tbh; iscsi is just used to get internet connectivity before a boot script runs00:49
umhellowell, in the initramfs00:49
tomreynumhello: i can't follow this logic. can you point to the how.to you followed?00:50
umhellohaven't followed any howto; i just use iscsi in initramfs to get internet because it was what I found somewhen a month ago or so00:50
umhellowell, the only howto I have is my commands list00:51
tomreynumhello: do you feel like sharing those commands?00:51
bray90820_EriC^^: Lots of stuff there but theses seems to be the only errors00:52
bray90820_https://www.dropbox.com/s/r6pmckcvm81rjy0/IMG_20190223_184912.jpg?dl=000:52
umhellowell nothing much there; just apt update, upgrade, add a keyscript to /etc/crypttab, install guest additions in vb and virtualbox-guest-dkms, add +x to keyscript, install open-iscsi and sshpass, echo "iscsi" >> /etc/initramfs-tools/modules, echo "ISCSI_AUTO=true" > /etc/iscsi/iscsi.initramfs, add a hook to initamfs-tools, add +x to it, ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096, update-initramfs -u and also reboot a few times in the process00:53
umhellothat's it00:54
EriC^^bray90820_: aha seems like a bug, try the using the advanced menu in grub to boot an older kernel, or when you get to emergency mode, press ctrl+d to try continue booting00:54
bray90820_Tried control-D already00:54
bray90820_I will try an older kernel00:54
umhellois there anything wrong with that setup tomreyn00:57
tomreynumhello: so you're using a side effect of initializing the iscsi module to bring up the network early. that's weird, and there are surely better ways, but it should not break things. other than network-manager, probably, which will likel ynot try to initialize an already initialized network interface.00:57
GerowenIs there any VM software that lets you create ARM based virtual machines on an X86 host?  I would like to experiment with things like ubuntu core in a virtualised environment, but VirtualBox only does x86 virtual machines.00:57
umhellogood point tomreyn - any ideas on how I could uninitialize the network interface so that it'd be... reinitialized?00:58
tomreynumhello: no, not really, would have to read up on how this works, too.00:59
Bashing-omGerowen: About 60 bucks but you may find this of interest: https://blog.ubuntu.com/2019/02/19/easy-iot-with-ubuntu-core-and-raspberry-pi01:00
umhellohm, I see. but it's not possible to add a pre-initialized network interface to networkmanager is it01:00
GerowenBashing-om: I was literally just reading that, is what made me curious, :p01:03
umhelloalso what other ways would there be that could perhaps not break network-manager tomreyn01:04
GerowenI have a raspberry pi, although "technically" I gave it to my little boy as a retropie, so I don't want to take it from him.01:04
GerowenI may just have to order my own.01:04
GerowenJust wanted a way to tinker and try things out in a virtual environment before committing things to hardware.01:04

tomreynumhello: "nmcli d set <ifname> autoconnect yes managed yes" should make a device managed by NM.01:16

bray90820_EriC^^: What should i do from here?01:20
EriC^^bray90820_: no idea tbh01:24
bray90820_Maybe I could update the kernel from the live USB01:24
bray90820_Do you know what Kernel I was trying to boot from when it failed?01:25
EriC^^bray90820_: i was about to suggest that, go to the grub recovery mode and before choosing drop to root shell choose "start  networking"01:25
tomreynumhello: maybe it's managed by systemd-networkd then?01:25
EriC^^bray90820_: then drop to root shell and try "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"01:25
bray90820_Drop to the root shell where I was at before?01:26
umhelloseems to be the case! Any way to fix that? tomreyn01:26
tomreynumhello: well this doesn't happen by itself. i guess you did it, then you will probbaly know how to undo it, too?01:27
Bashing-omuntermensch: Check from the "renderer" line : cat /etc/netplan/01-network-manager-all.yaml .01:27
umhellohas to be a side effect of the iscsi boot01:28
umhellono idea how to undo it, but guess Iļl try that tomorrow. :D01:28
tomreynumhello: systemd-networkd configuration is stored in /etc/systemd/networkd.conf (IIRC)01:29

umhellowhat would fix the current situation?01:35
bray90820_EriC^^: so what exactly am I suppose to do?01:36

guiverccliff1245, you can add `ifconfig` if you want the relegated command, but https://askubuntu.com/questions/767786/changing-network-interfaces-name-ubuntu-16-04  (upvote 60) answer may be helpful04:50
ChiLL-Twoi dont know but you can install net-tools04:50
ChiLL-Twoto get ifconfig04:51
cliff1245thanks, I'd rather not have to install net-tools04:54
ryuocliff1245: the only way i found that was effective was to use systemd's link files. see man systemd.link04:55

EmanueleCI have a question to ask: How come Ubuntu desktop does not consider defaulting to Btrfs? The huge advantages it has on snapshots would be useful when updating from release A to release B11:47
EmanueleCI had also asked on the forum: https://community.ubuntu.com/t/switch-to-btrfs-by-default/978311:47
ducassebecause it's still under development11:48
EmanueleCIt does not seem that way from the WIKI status of Btrfs https://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Status11:50
blackflowand proven rather unreliable.11:50
blackflowEmanueleC: yeah, no.   https://wiki.debian.org/Btrfs#Warnings11:50
ducasseEmanueleC: in my experience it's not ready yet11:51
blackflowUbuntu is betting on ZFS instead11:51
blackflowrumor has it it's being added to the installers11:51
blackflow(the support for it)11:51
EmanueleCAre all cases for desktop use? I use Btrfs in single volume from Ubuntu 12.04, with enabled LZO compression, ZSTD and autodefrag, I've never had a problem, it has helped me many times to restore the snapshot after a regression in some update or version upgrade.11:53
blackflowthey're cases for "btrfs use".11:54
EmanueleC145/500011:54
EmanueleCAm I wrong or ZFS is not included in the Linux kernel? and is not supported by Linux kernel maintainers?11:54
EmanueleCSee the latest problems with the 5. * kernel on ZFS.11:54
blackflowEmanueleC: neither is nvidia11:55
blackflowmeaning what's your point?   ZFS is part of the Ubuntu linux kernel packages, and fully supported excpet for installation on ZFS root, which, I'm told, is a WIP11:56
blackflowthe problems with linux 5.x are political and soemthing ZFS has alredy worked around11:56
blackflow(by implementing the functionality itself, rather than relying on deprecated kernel APIs that are now exported as GPL only)11:56
EmanueleCI want to reiterate on the point "that Btrfs is not stable", openSUSE uses it on "/" for many years, without major problems11:58
EmanueleChttps://en.opensuse.org/SDB:BTRFS11:58
ducassethis is really getting offtopic here, too11:58
blackflowEmanueleC: "without major problems" is [citation needed]11:58
blackflow  and besides, nobody else does. Red Hat has made it clear they will not support Btrfs.11:58
blackflowOpenSUSE is a big mess distro. their own rolling release Tumbleweed is not working properly with their own package tool zypper11:59
blackflowso I wouldn't value what opensuse does or thinks, one bit as anything serious.11:59
blackflowthis convo is perhaps more suitable for #ubuntu-discuss12:00
whoareUerror prompt" kernel driver not installed (rc=-1908), when i install virualbox on ubuntu18.0412:01
ixxiemorning folks; say I want to bump the version of a package to a particular version with apt-get, how would I do this?12:04
ixxiefor example I currently have the default tmux 2.6 installed and wanna bump to https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tmux/2.8-212:05
ducasseixxie: grab the package source and build it, or look for a ppa with the version you want12:08
ixxieducasse: so there is no way to tell apt to install a particular version besides selecting the ppa?12:09
ducasseixxie: it needs a repo to get it from12:10
ixxieI see12:10
blackflowixxie: there is but it's not really recommended. you add 19.04 repo and then do some apt-pinning to get tmux only from that repo. which would probably pull in a newer libevent which would probably break your system for other things that require libevent.12:10
ixxieso better to just build from source12:10
blackflowideally you backport the package, by building it from src-deb as ducasse suggested.12:10

lotuspsychjeiCherry: you can try the freedos method described on the wiki14:05
tomreynbtw. it's normal for the grub menu to show up when your system did not do a clean shutdown.14:06

Vuurdraak_good day all, if i do a distro upgrade from 14.04 lts to 18.04 lts , will it remove openshot v1 that i use from the ubuntu 14.04 repo and replace it with a later version like v2 that misses functionality compaired to the older version, and if so how to stop it14:13
tomreynVuurdraak_: it will upgrade openshot to version 2.4.1 (+ Ubuntu patches)14:17
Vuurdraak_:(14:17
Vuurdraak_can i prevent that from hapening as i already have both versions and v1 can do stuff v2 cant do14:18
tomreynVuurdraak_: not upgrading ubuntu is not an option, though, since 14.04 is on the brink to reaching its end of life14:18
Vuurdraak_yes14:18
Vuurdraak_the thing is openshot officialy doesnt support v1 anymore its not on their website, im afraid i will lose v1 without being able to get it back14:19
tomreynVuurdraak_: xenial (ubuntu 16.04 LTS) has two more years of support and provides openshot 1.4.314:19
lotuspsychjeVuurdraak_: add a new !bug wishlist to openshot, and explain what the current version can't14:19

Vuurdraak_i got more rendering programs but i like openshot v1.4.3 the most even though it is buggy sometimes14:32
tomreynyour version being the one which is available in ubuntu 14.04? this will be very old. however, it appears that many people prefer other editors such as shotcut over openshot nowadays.14:33
Vuurdraak_i dont know shotcut14:33
tomreyni suggest create an 18.04 live / installer, and test it there.14:33
ducassemight be time to start learning another program if v1 is no longer maintained14:34
tomreynand if you like it, either backup and install 18.04 from scratch, or, less preferrable, do the LTS upgrades14:34
tomreynthere is also Kdenlive14:35
Vuurdraak_since openshot v1 is still in the 16.04 repo i will upgrade the OS only to 16.04 lts for now, i already have a live usb where i can boot to 18.04 lts also i got 18.04 lts on my laptop, i will take a look at shotcut from there14:36

qwebirc33370Greetings.  I'm somewhat new to Ubuntu as I'm trying to switch a home media server over from Windows.  My mainenance/install bench uses a 40inch tv as a monitor which makes the initial work after install all but impossible to see.  Is there a way to change the resolution at the prompt?16:12
BluesKajimpossible to see..how?16:14
qwebirc33370impossible as in I practically have to climb on the bench to get close enough to read the tiny text16:14
traekilimaybe checkout xrandr16:16
BluesKajsystems settings> fonts16:17
qwebirc33370I have no GUI after the fresh iI have no GUI yet16:17
qwebirc33370Bleh, sorry.  I have no GUI yet.  I'm in the process of installing some base functions I found from googling.  I'm just trying to make the command prompt work a little easier on my eyes16:18
ioriaqwebirc33370, you can boot with 'nomodeset'16:21
fleabeard!nomodeset | qwebirc3337016:22
ubottuqwebirc33370: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter16:22
qwebirc33370I will try.  thank you16:23
ioriaqwebirc33370, otherwise you need to edit your /etc/default/grub configuration16:24
fleabeardanyone know if you can get the screenshot applet that is used in ubuntu budgie and install it on another version of ubuntu? Like vanilla ubuntu?16:36
lotuspsychjefleabeard: check the packagename from system monitor?16:37
podivilovHi all!16:37
fleabeardlotuspsychje, I got annoyed with budgie's broken panel and went back to vanilla ubuntu so I don't have it installed to check :(16:37
OerHeksthat package might pull in the whole desktop16:38
OerHeksso, carefull what you do16:38
lotuspsychjewelcome podivilov how can we help you?16:38
lotuspsychjefleabeard: apt-cache doesnt show any budgie screenshot tool, so as OerHeks suggests it might be in another package that pulls more16:39
leonardusis there a way to check within the OS if my RAM is running in dual channel?16:40
OerHeksfleabeard, just install gnome-screenshot16:40
lotuspsychjeleonardus: maybe try: sudo inxi -mxxx16:41
fleabeardI was really looking for something that had the same functionality of the budgie screenshot applet (in particular to its ability to upload to imgur right from the app itself)16:41
lotuspsychjefleabeard: try shutter or flameshot perhaps (didnt test myself)16:43
ducassefleabeard: the budgie tool might not be a separate executable as such, but maybe (part of) a library16:44
fleabeardyeah, that's what I'm thinking since it is only available in the budgie applet menu and not in the usual repo's. I'll give shutter a shot since it seems to have similar functionality, thanks!16:46
ioriafleabeard, in the 16.04 ppa, it's a separate package: https://launchpad.net/~budgie-remix/+archive/ubuntu/ppa16:49
lotuspsychjenice find ioria16:49
rapidwaveI can't seem to get either MySQL nor MariaDB to have /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock16:49
ioriabut i don't think you installed budgie with that ppa, right ? fleabeard16:50
fleabeardioria, right, when I was running budgie it was from an install of ubuntu-budgie16:50
ioriafleabeard, so it's embedded16:50
fleabeardioria, ah okay, does that mean I can't get that same applet on another system outside of budgie?16:52
ioriafleabeard, if there's no pkg, associated you can clone from github16:52
fleabeardioria, sorry if this is a stupid question, I'm still very new to linux. But how would I verify if there is no pkg associated? I'm assuming their aren't at this point, but am not really sure.16:53
ioriafleabeard, apt-cache search budgie-screenshot-applet16:53
Deihmosjust installed ubuntu. now i have to find a way to get rid of the purple / brown colors16:54
ioriafleabeard, unless it changed it's name16:54
Deihmosis there a built in setitng to do it ?16:54
ioria*its16:54
OerHeksDeihmos, systemsettings, go wild!16:54
fleabeardioria, thanks, tried that and nothing came back, so I guess it's safe to assume I'd need to clone it from github?16:54
Deihmosi did  not see a setting to change the colors but i will try again16:55
OerHeksinstall some theme?16:55
Deihmosnot really interested in messing around with 3rd party themes16:55
OerHeksthere *are* more themes in the repos, install synaptic, a much more detailed softwarecenter16:56
Deihmosok16:57
ioriafleabeard, theorically, but if it's integrated in the budgie calendar thing, might be useless16:57
pikapikahi16:57
pikapikaIn xubuntu, is the altgr key as a method of typing special characters disabled by default?16:57
fleabeardioria, dang, it's such a nice looking/functioning app :( Thanks for helping me out though!16:58
ducassepikapika: depends on keyboard layout16:58
pikapikaok the keyboard settings has the system default selected16:59
ioriafleabeard, no problem, another  silly (and dangerous) thing you can try is this ppa; and only install budgie-screenshot-applet ; https://launchpad.net/%7Eubuntubudgie/+archive/ubuntu/backports17:00
ducassefleabeard: if there is a package in the ppa you could install that, but it might drag in other stuff17:00
ioriafleabeard, frankly, i'am pessimistic17:01
fleabeardioria, I'll give it a shot for science!17:01
ioriaok :þ17:01
ducassegood luck :)17:01
fleabeardoh God, this was a huge mistake...17:03
fleabeardit somehow installed Windows 10!17:03
fleabeardhaha j/k17:03
pikapikaducasse17:04
fleabeardioria, okay, so I installed that ppa and did an apt install budgie-screenshot-applet, and it says its installed yet I dunno where it's at lol17:05
fleabeardI don't /think/ it brought in anything else nasty17:05
ducassepikapika: look if there is a layout with the same name as your current one, plus 'international'17:05
pikapikahow'd I find my current name?17:06
ducassefleabeard: do 'dpkg -L budgie-screenshot-applet,' to see which files it installed17:06
ducassepikapika: it should be listed where you select keyboard layout, i  don't use gnome17:07
pikapikaIt is XFCE17:07
ducassei don't use that either :)17:07
fleabeardducasse, https://pastebin.com/ZXqCCHui is what that shows17:08
* OerHeks stopped visiting pastebin.com17:08
ducassefleabeard: doesn't look like it's a separate binary17:09
fleabeardducasse, oof, alright. At least we gave it a shot hehe17:09
ducassefleabeard: just remove the package and the ppa17:12
ioriafleabeard, probably; it's a plugin17:15
ioriafleabeard, file /usr/lib/budgie-desktop/plugins/budgie-screenshot-applet17:15
ducassethat looks like a directory17:16
ioriaright17:17
ioriafleabeard, file /usr/lib/budgie-desktop/plugins/budgie-screenshot-applet/ScreenshotApplet.plugin17:17
fleabeardioria, sorry for being daft, but does that mean I can run it? It being a plugin and all?17:18
ioriafleabeard, file /usr/lib/budgie-desktop/plugins/budgie-screenshot-applet/ScreenshotApplet.plugin     (and paste the output)17:19
ducasselet's find out :)17:19
pikapikaWhere does xubuntu search its xorg.conf?17:19
fleabeardoh, okay just a tick17:19
pikapikaI am reading man xorg.conf17:19
ducassepikapika: there is none by default17:19
pikapikabut the ones I found are from a location not given there17:19
pikapikaah17:19
pikapikaso how do you set the things that normally xorg.conf is used for17:19
pikapika(just to clarify, I am using a version with x not with the new window system)17:20
ducassepikapika: you can add snippets to /etc/C11/xorg.conf.d17:20

ducassemake that X1117:20
pavlosleonardus: I did "sudo dmidecode | grep Channel" and got ChannelA-DIMM0 and ChannelB-DIMM017:21

ioriafleabeard, "applet" in Budgie is the same as "extension" on GNOME17:23
Forkbomb_Hey everyone! Is it okay if I ask for help with something, or am I wrong here for that?17:23
pikapikaDon't ask to ask17:24
Forkbomb_Hahaha okay17:24
ducasseForkbomb_: if it's for ubuntu, sure17:24
fleabeardioria, ah, welp! We tried :) Maybe someday some cool dude with great hair will port that sexy screenshot applet over so the rest of the world can use it outside of budgie :P17:24
ioriafleabeard, might be17:25
Forkbomb_I have a pretty interesting problem: I just installed Bionic on a Dell Latitude 7212 Rugged Extreme, and the keyboard cover that ships with it seems to, well, interface with the tablet via PC2. In WIn10 I have no problems with it, but in Ubuntu, as soon as I disconnect and reconnect the keyboard or suspend and thaw the tablet, the input from the keyboard cover is completely ignored, save for the touchpad, which is still fully func17:26
Forkbomb_I have to reboot the system to get my keyboard back17:26
Forkbomb_hwinfo --keyboard lists it, before and after the disconnect, so nothing seems to change there17:26
Forkbomb_Any ideas where I should look next?17:27
ducasseForkbomb_: check dmesg or journalctl17:27
Forkbomb_I'll get you the dmesg entries regarding the keyboard, I already saved them - one moment17:27
Forkbomb_How can I communicate the dmesg to you? Paste it here, or is there a preferred method?17:29

elias_aDaughters 18.04 installation nagged about disk space being filled and does not boot now. Looking with Gparted root partition has over 1 gb empty space. What to do?17:56
elias_aRegular boot sequence leads to black screen.17:57
elias_aI would understand a full root partitition would cause this but now I cannot understand the reason.17:58
mfoolbfleabeard: many ways.. it could be good to start looking at sed command - super powerful17:58
fleabeardmfoolb, I was just looking at that now hah thanks17:59

fleabeardmfoolb, would you happen to know how I can add a wildcard with sed? I think I have to escape a "\" but am not sure. Example: If I use sed 's/^/(^|\.)/' list it adds (^|.) as the prefix, but I actually need it to use (^|\.)18:05

fleabeardmfoolb, sorry, the list I have have a list of websites in it. But I need for them all to be prefixed with (^|\.) so like this> (^|\.)google.com. I can get this far with it (^|.)google.com I think it's escaping that "\" in my prefix when I need it.18:13

mfoolbfleabeard: use \ to escape the characters you need18:21
fleabeardmfoolb, got it sorted now lol, I wasn't aware you can escape it that way. My regex expression-fu is very low. Thanks mate \o18:22
OerHekskasper1, go into networksettings, and make a new connection, dhcp default18:23
fleabeardkasper1, are you chatting from the affected machine currently?18:23
mfoolbfleabeard: glad it worked out for you18:23
kasper1@fleabeard, no from a laptop. I am SSH'd into it. It's a headless server18:24
OerHeksDeihmos, so you found out yourself, good find18:24
Deihmosshould have been a much easier solution18:24
kasper1OerHeks: it's a headless server... i have created a yaml in /etc/netplan with DHCP. Still no DNS18:24
Deihmosi guess most people just leave it the way it is18:24
kasper1can't dig and can't apt-get update18:24
kasper1also tried a static yaml google dns cloudflare etc. etc. tried many still no joy18:25
kasper1cannot get anything to resolve... something somewhere is probably still pointing to the pihole which no longer exists18:25
compdockasper1, show us your yaml file with pastebin.com18:25

kasper1https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/4ZZByZbPHf/18:27
kasper1it works if i apply with debug18:27
kasper1ie there are no errors18:27
compdocthat seems ok. if you type ip a, do you see ipv6 addresses?18:28
compdocyour dhcp server hands out a local dns service, or some dns service?18:29
kasper1local but i tried changing that18:29
kasper1I do see ipv6 which is weird since ipv6 shouldn't be enabled18:30
kasper1also i see now the docker0 iface is state down also weird18:30
compdocyeah, they tend to use ipv6 now, so unless its setup right it, things dont work18:30
kasper1I haven't setup a ipv6 connection on my router... so there's no ipv6 outside connection18:31
compdoctook me a log time to get ipv6 right18:31
kasper1But it worked upto today when i got rid of the pihole18:31
kasper1I am hoping to have retired and spend my days fishing by the time ipv4 actually stops existing :D18:32
kasper1bit like climate change there are believers and non believers :P18:33
kasper1@compdoc do you have a suggestion how to fix this?18:33

jeremybkasper1: You will still have 1 IPv6 address in ifconfig18:45
kasper1@compdoc no they don't. There is no ifconfig18:46
kasper1there is only stupid netplan18:46
kasper1major PITA18:46
compdocnetplan is pretty good when you learn it18:46
kasper1I have a feeling it's not ipv6 tho... but not sure what else it could be18:46
compdocwhat does route say?18:46

OerHeksstick to LTS, so you get a release any 2 years18:54
Deihmosbetter than debian i guess18:54

kasper1when i create it add nameservers i get an error when trying to save18:56
compdocI think its a link now, to another directory18:57

kreyrenHow does Livepatch working on ubuntu?19:34
kreyrenis it able to patch kernel without reboot?19:34
=== wodencafe__ is now known as wodencafe
kreyren*patch and use it19:34
tomreynkreyren: yes, that's it's very purpose.19:35
kreyrentomreyn: more info about the process?19:35
kreyrenassuming it's open-source19:36
tomreynit's a canonical product, there is info on it online19:36
kreyrenwhere can i get more info then?19:37
tomreyn!livepatch19:37
ubottuCanonical Livepatch is a service offered by Canonical for 64 bit 14.04 and higher installs that modifies the currently running kernel for updates without the need to restart. More information can be found at https://ubottu.com/y/livepatch and https://www.ubuntu.com/server/livepatch19:37
kreyrenty19:38
kreyrenit uses remote server to livepatch?19:38
tomreynthe patches are downloaded from a remote server, yes.19:39
tomreynso are the kernel images you probaby use, and most of the software you run.19:40
kreyrentomreyn: but like the patching is made on the remote server? based on gentoo their live patching requires server to emulate libs(?)19:44
tomreynkreyren: patching takes place on your system19:47
kreyreninteresting, ty for info19:47
tomreynpreparing the patches takes place on canonicals' systems19:47
tomreynkreyren: that's also why you can only use this with the standard kernel images ubuntu provides19:48
=== andrea is now known as Guest98935
tomreynkreyren: just give it a try, download and inspect the snap, and you'll know how it works exactly. there's a free usage tier.19:49
tomreynbut in general we don't support caononical services here, you should get support from them directly.19:49

Forkbomb_Hey everyone! I just installed 18.03 Bionic on my tablet, and have a problem with it's keyboard cover: from boot, the keyboard and integrated touchpad work perfectly, but if I suspend/thaw or disconnect and reconnect, the keystrokes are ignored, and only the touchpad keeps working. Have to force-reboot the system to keep using it every time I close the tablet at the moment20:19
Forkbomb_How can I investigate this issue?20:20
Beast_hi all20:22
Beast_tilda just closed duing an upgrade evoked through itself. can i just kill apt and restart it? its still running in the background.20:24

Baroneshow can I see boot long while booting?20:32
OerHeksBarones, remove quiet and splash from the grubline20:33
OerHeks!grub20:33
ubottuGRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub220:33
BaronesOerHeks: is there any way to do display it while booting? I can't access to OS20:34
OerHekshold shift @ boot, and press 'e' to edit the grubline, easy to do20:35
OerHekssometimes 'nomodeset' helps if you do not get to login/black screen20:36
OerHeks!nomodeset20:36
ubottuA common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter20:36

Forkbomb_Do you know what I could to to diganose my keyboard issue?20:41
OerHeksForkbomb_, i searched around, no other ubuntu nor linux user has asked about the same issue, Dell Latitude 7212 & keyboard cover20:41
jeremybForkbomb_: check syslog to see what happens when things quit working20:41
Forkbomb_I'm sorry, jeremyb, how would I do that?20:42
jeremybForkbomb_: If you use a Live ISO, you should be able to mount the install and look at the files in /var/log20:43
Forkbomb_jeremyb: Can I only do this through a live ISO, or also while running Ubuntu normally?20:44
jeremybForkbomb_: you can use the install to look at the syslog and other logs20:45
OerHekstype logs in dash, and the logs util shows up20:45
Forkbomb_jeremyb: I'll restart my system to get the keyboard working again, tail syslog and see if something comes up as I reconnect the cover20:46
Forkbomb_I will be back shortly, thank you20:46
Forkbomb_I have returned. I will now commence testing with the keyboard21:02
Forkbomb_Sadly, the syslog does not seem to react to my re-attaching of the keyboard21:04
qwebirc69286Hi, i am still struggeling with not being able to resolve any domains due to a DNS issue.

asenssycould someone advice how to make "find" to search for files less than 200b21:42
asenssyfind -type f -size 200b (or less, not more)21:44
OerHekseasy to find, such action find . -type f -size -200c21:44
asenssythanks21:44
OerHeksb would be 512-byte blocks21:45
asenssyso "-200c" is for less than 200b, how can i make range, lets say from 200b to 500b21:45
