pragmaticenigmagofio: We would like to ask that you stay in one channel for your help. Since you have been getting help in ##linux, it is better to stay with that group. They were able to take you this far, they are the most aware of your situation and what it took to get you up and running.00:00
gofiojust wanted to know if could keep going in the process or had to do the livepatch better first00:00
gofiowell they were into some other conversation and this was 110% ubuntu question pragmaticenigma00:01
gofioand as matter of fact pragmaticenigma your answer was right on point00:01
opilabim having some issues launching minecraft, i know this is ubuntu chat but as the issue is with ld.so im wondering if theres any packages i can install/reinstall to rememedy this issue. the error looks like so:00:06
=== Senhara_ is now known as Senhara
opilab Inconsistency detected by ld.so: dl-lookup.c: 111: check_match: Assertion.....00:06
pragmaticenigmaopilab: It is not something that we can support. Minecraft is supplied by Microsoft and they have setup forums and services for customer support. It's best that you seek help there as there is a better chance of someone having encountered the bug and what they did to fix it00:07

nshirelaptopwhy does gedit freeze so hard when opening files? I tried to open up a 1mb binary dump and it completely freezes the UI to where I have to sigterm it01:10
pragmaticenigmanshirelaptop: because gedit isn't designed to open binary files. It is scanning the entire file to try and determine the character set of the characters. Since there are no markers, it tries all of them01:12
nshirelaptopany way to get it to just open it as plaintext without trying different charsets?01:14
nshirelaptopmaybe better to just use a hex editor I guess01:14
nshirelaptopI was just a little surprised considering notepad in windows will throw pretty much anything you throw at it01:15
nshirelaptop*handle anything you throw at it01:15
pragmaticenigmanshirelaptop: it's better to use a hex editor... gedit is meant for plain text... for a 1 MB file, it has to scan all 1,048,576 character blocks individually. Windows notepad doesn't do character interpretation, it always assumes it's a 128bit ASCII file01:16
donofrio_jeremy31, that was it, now I have video and can sudo startxfce4 but still seems wrong lol01:16
Bashing-omdonofrio_: "sudo startxfce4" leads to root owning your desktop and "you" are no longer authorized to access :(01:19
tacomasterSome one told me yesterday that intel had a propitiatory driver for the integrated graphics. I am just seeing if that is true because I am not seeing any in ubuntu's 3rd party driver app.01:25
Krennichmm01:25
pragmaticenigmatacomaster: there is a driver produced by Intel, it is not for general usage however. It is distributed to OS makers to include with thier OSes, there is on advantage to installing it yourself.01:26
pragmaticenigma*this is no advantage01:26
pragmaticenigma* there is no advantage (my apologies I cannot seem to type tonight)01:26
pragmaticenigmaKrennic: Is there an Ubuntu support issue that the volunteers here can assist you with?01:27
tacomasterOk because the main thing that I am seeing is really bad performance in the low end games that I used to be able to run in windows with 60+ fps. We are talking mostly logic games that don't have demanding graphics. In ubuntu I am getting barely movable graphics.01:28
tacomasterI would say I am getting around 5-10 fps01:28
tacomasterI understand that it may just be poorly written for linux but I am just covering my bases01:29
pragmaticenigmatacomaster: there are a lot of factors. If the game is running through any sort of emulator, you're going to experience performance issues (many windows games run via wine)01:30
tacomasterlinux native01:30
tacomasterThe game is crusader kings 201:30
tacomasterIt can be pretty cpu intensive but very light on the gpu01:31
pragmaticenigmatacomaster: Crusader Kings 2 distributed by Steam?01:31
tacomasterYes01:31
pragmaticenigmatacomaster: Did you enable steam play?01:32
tacomasterI did but that was just mostly for other games. If I enable it on a global level will it try to run all games in the windows versions?01:33
pragmaticenigmatacomaster: yes (I'm not aware of enabling it on a per game level) ... steam play is an emulation layer however. And the game you mentioned is only available for windows and mac, meaning that on linux it's using some sort of middle ware to run the game01:34
tacomasterI mean in a few weeks it will be a non issues because I am getting a gtx 1070 but I just didn't have the money up front01:35
tacomasterIt is a native linux game I can show you01:35
pragmaticenigmatacomaster: If you are going to upgrade the graphics capabilities, then I highly recommend that you wait for your new graphics card. Doing a bunch of tweaks now will mean you will have to remember what they were in case they interfere with the new graphics setup01:35
pragmaticenigmatacomaster: I'm looking at the game right now, while it doesn't specifically say it, it is running via steam play. It was verified to work, which means the you don't have to enable it yourself01:36
GalzuFromQHow the F do I disable the passwd prompt in LXDE?01:37
GalzuFromQIt's driving me bananas, I'm about to just start using it as root.01:37

tacomasterI have a system requirements for linux in the steam client as well with the steam os logo01:38
GalzuFromQIs F a bad word?01:38
GalzuFromQSorry.01:38
GalzuFromQI'm ex Army Infantry, I try and tone it down but it slips when I'm agitated.01:38
tacomasterpragmaticenigma: I just turned off steam play completely and I was able to get back into the game01:39
pragmaticenigmaGalzuFromQ: Consider this area a public park with small children and I think it'll help. As for the password prompt, are you asking to be able to automatically login?01:40
GalzuFromQGotcha pragmaticenigma01:41
GalzuFromQpragmaticenigma, I would like to disable gksudo or what ever it is.01:41
GalzuFromQI can't even keep up anymore.01:41
GalzuFromQWhen I started using *NIX there wasn't sudo, or gksudo.01:41
=== nllc-admin is now known as stv-rven
pragmaticenigmaGalzuFromQ: the reason for the move to sudo and gksudo (gksudo is being slowly discontinued in favor of other methods) is to make it harder for someone malicious to gain access to your computer. Admittally, I get annoyed to, but once my machine is up and running I rarely have to use it01:43
pragmaticenigmaGalzuFromQ: May I ask what you are doing that requires being run as gksudo or with sudo?01:43
GalzuFromQI know the reason for it, I was just stating it wasn't around when I began.01:43
GalzuFromQYou could make a group and user named TIMMAY and it'd do the same thing as sudo.01:44
sysadminor you could install Kali and run it all as root01:44
sysadmineverything except chrome01:45
GalzuFromQKali, lol.01:45
GalzuFromQOR, I could log into this Peppermint distro I'm using as root.01:45
GalzuFromQBUT, I KNOW there's a way to disable it.01:45
pragmaticenigmatacomaster: looking at the system specifications for the game, it appears that they have tested and recommend AMD or nVidia graphics cards for that game for best performance. I believe that once you receive your new card, everything will be much better for you01:45
pragmaticenigmaGalzuFromQ: The short answer is, it isn't easy to disable. The usage of sudo and gksudo is now deeply rooted in Ubuntu and not made easy to circumvent01:46
GalzuFromQLord.01:46
pragmaticenigmaGalzuFromQ: You can edit the sudo users file, to enable sudo to work without a password, but I don't think it applies to gksudo01:46
GalzuFromQBecause adding the program to visudo isn't doing it.01:46
GalzuFromQThis is what I've done https://pastebin.com/raw/dFMDksfu01:47
GalzuFromQMaybe I need to go to the #debian room.01:49
pragmaticenigmaGalzuFromQ: Did you uncomment the line in /etc/sudoers for looking in the other folder?01:49
pragmaticenigmaGalzuFromQ: #debian will send you right back here if you are running Ubuntu01:49
GalzuFromQpragmaticenigma, I did and it kicked back an error saying there was an error in the file.01:50
pragmaticenigmaGalzuFromQ: can you paste the error message for me please?01:50
GalzuFromQHold.01:50
GalzuFromQpragmaticenigma, https://pastebin.com/raw/Vk8nnvbR01:51
GalzuFromQCrap, I should have logged in as root at term F1...01:52
GalzuFromQYay, I was still logged in.01:53
pragmaticenigmaGalzuFromQ: In the past I've just done this in my sudo file: {user_to_nopass} ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL01:56
pragmaticenigmaGalzuFromQ: it's lazy, but it allows me to sudo anything when I need to01:57
pragmaticenigmaI haven't worked much with command alias or the other alias stuff before. That should get you further along. I'll have to readup on the alias parts01:58
GalzuFromQOk pragmaticenigma02:02

Boyettefilezilla/bionic,now 3.28.0-1 amd64 [installed]02:31
Boyettebut when i start the filezilla application its 3.41.202:32
tomreynso maybe you installed it as a snap?02:32
Bashing-omtexla: Ar you sure you need to do anything . how nuch time have you given "unattended-upgrade" to complete it's thing ?02:32
Boyettei dont know how to update it it doesnt update automatically02:32
Boyetteso i always download the newest version from their website02:32
Ben_XI'm thinking about switching from Ubuntu to Arch Linux02:33
tomreyn!latest | Boyette02:33
ubottuBoyette: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa.02:33
Boyetteok02:33
tomreyni.e. most of the time you don't need / want to have the latest version02:33
Boyettebut i was trying to fix this by updating to the latest version02:33
Boyettebut that also doesnt work02:33
purplepodfilezilla/disco 3.39.0-2 amd6402:33
tomreynBoyette: so you're saying the same thing happens on filezilla 3.28.0-1 ?02:34
purplepodyou're on02:34
Boyetteyes02:34
purplepodoh nvm you're on Bionic02:34

texlaBashing-om, I waited approximately 30 minutes then went to synaptic and downloaded and back to software and it then downloaded 16002:34
tacomasterSorry been a long time since I have been using linux. I do remember that net-stat could be used to check open ports but it seems that ubuntu has decided to no longer use this. What is the command to replace it?02:34
tacomasterwait it was netstat02:35
tomreynBoyette: let's try this:   LANG=C ubuntu-support-status --show-unsupported | nc termbin.com 999902:35
purplepodBoyette, you could try Filezilla from snap, it's on 3.39.0-2, see if it happens on that too02:35
Boyettehttps://termbin.com/xukw02:35
Boyette@ purplepod im already on 3.41.2 with snap02:36
Bashing-omtexla: From terminal what results ' sudo apt update ; sudo apt full-upgrade ' ?02:36
texlaBashing-om, On my laptop now will have to try tomorrow sorry02:37
tomreynBoyette: hmm, this doesn't look too bad. can you run filezilla (the 3.28.0-1 one) from a temrinal and post and output it prints there from the start till it breaks?02:37
Boyetteif i start it from terminal it starts 3.41.202:38
Bashing-omtexla: K -02:38
Boyettedont know why it still list the old version in apps02:38
tomreynBoyette: /usr/bin/filezilla02:38

tomreynhmm and you ran it with the full path?02:40
tomreynlike this /usr/bin/filezilla ?02:40

BoyetteFileZilla 3.41.2 official build, compiled on 2019-03-1802:40
tomreynhmm maybe remove the snap temporarily02:40
tomreynBoyette: also, since you seem to have some 3rd party repositories, can you also post this:    sudo /bin/true && cat &>/tmp/aptlog < <(sudo apt-get -qqy update 2>&1; apt-cache policy 2>&1; sudo apt-get -syV full-upgrade 2>&1;); nc termbin.com 9999 </tmp/aptlog; rm /tmp/aptlog02:42
tomreyni'd just like to see which they are02:42
tomreynand whether they might have smuggled some problematic libs onto your system02:42
Boyettehttps://termbin.com/958b02:43
sazawalHi. I have made a few changes in the file /usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/gdm3.css. which I want to restore. I tried finding which package contains this file to reinstall it. But the dpkg -S command says "dpkg-query: no path found matching pattern /usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/gdm3.css02:46
sazawal".02:46
tomreynBoyette: plenty of 3rd party repos. hopefully none of them installed some library which doesn't match with your system.02:47
Boyetteoh02:47
Boyettewhat should we do now02:47
tomreynBoyette: this is just a theory so far, there coul dbe other reasons. i suggested you temporarily remove the snap to be able to show the terminal output of filezilla02:48
tomreynbut you didn't respond to this, so i assume you prefer not to?02:48
Boyetteoh02:49
Boyettei can do it if you can explain to me how :)02:49
tomreynsudo snap remove filezilla02:49
Boyettesnap "filezilla" is not installed02:49
tomreynBoyette: <Boyette> @ purplepod im already on 3.41.2 with snap02:51
Boyettei thought it was snap02:51
tomreynso one of you isnt telling the truth, either the Boyette now, or the Boyette from 15 minutes ago02:51
Boyettebut apparently its not02:51
Boyettei was checking how i did that then02:51
Boyettei used ubuntu-toolchain02:52
tomreynBoyette: snap list      shows installed snaps.02:52
tomreynwhat do you mean by "i used ubuntu-toolchain"?02:52
Boyettethis is what i used to update filezilla02:53
Boyettehttps://sam.azgor.com/upgrade-filezilla-on-ubuntu/02:53
Boyetteand i downloaded the latest version here02:53
Boyettehttps://filezilla-project.org/02:53
tomreynso you installed it from a ppa apparently. but you also say you downloaded it from the projects' website02:54
tomreyni don't think i can follow02:54
tomreynapt list --installed filezilla   prints which version? did we have this before?02:55
Boyettethe ppa was just to install the correct version of libstdc++02:55
tomreynlol02:55
jcottonthat sounds like it would break lots of things02:56
Boyettej@HQ:~$ apt list --installed filezilla02:56
BoyetteListing... Done02:56
Boyettefilezilla/bionic,now 3.28.0-1 amd64 [installed]02:56
tomreynBoyette: you really need to be careful with PPAs, there's a reason they're unsupported here02:56
Boyetteyes it is getting clear to me now02:56
tomreynBoyette: 'upgrading' libstdc++ is a way to reliably break your system, possibly beyond repair02:57
Boyettehmm02:57
tomreyni notice this how-to you linkes even recommends installing "the right version of libstdc++.so.6". that's a bad recommendation, i'm afraid.02:58
Boyetteok02:58
Boyettewhat to do now?02:58
tomreynalso this how.to is for ubuntu 16.04, you have 18.0402:59
tomreynBoyette:  dpkg -l libstd* | nc termbin.com 999903:00
Boyettehttps://termbin.com/munuf03:00
tomreynhmm those seem to be fine.03:01
Boyettemy issue is something similar like this:03:02
Boyettehttps://forum.filezilla-project.org/viewtopic.php?t=3871703:02
Boyettebut this is a topic from 2015.. you would not expect this in 201903:02
tomreynBoyette: oh this sudo cp ... command is also pretty disastrous03:02
tomreynyour issue is that you followed a bad how-to which was also for a different ubuntu version, which had you replace important files on your computer03:03
Boyettehmm03:03
sazawalHow do I find which package contains a particular system file? dpkg -S is not working for this file.03:04
tomreyni'm trying to understand what was replaced, give me a minute03:04
tomreynBoyette: ^03:04
Boyetteok03:04
Boyetteactually03:08
tomreynBoyette: do you still have the filezilla copy you downloaded as per this how-to?03:08
Boyetteyes03:08
tomreynBoyette: if you open it in an archive manager, you can look into directory FileZilla303:08
tomreynin there are some subdirectories03:09
BoyetteFileZilla_3.41.2_x86_64-linux-gnu.tar.bz203:09
tomreynyes, open it in an archive viewer03:09
Boyetteyes03:09
Boyettebin / lib / share03:09
tomreynright, you copied these directories and their contents to /usr/03:10
tomreynwhich is where some critical parts of ubuntu are installed, some of which were probably replaced.03:10
tomreynyou can now either go over these files in those subdirectories one by one, determine whether they were previously installed, and if so, reinstall their proper version from ubuntu, and if not, remove it.03:11
tomreynor you can reinstall03:11
Boyettesudo cp -ravx * /usr/03:12
Boyettethis is what i did03:12
tomreyncorrect03:12
Boyettebut actually03:13
Boyettei found out something now03:13
tomreyni can tell you how to "determine whether they were previously installed, and if so, reinstall their proper version from ubuntu", but just for one of those files, as an example, you'd need to do it for the others.03:13
Boyettewhen i do this:03:13
Boyettesudo ibus exit03:13
Boyettethe keyboard problem is fixed in filezilla03:13
Boyettefor the actual session03:13
tomreynso you found a workaround for the immediate issue. but this doesn't fix the problem you created by this sudo command.03:14
Boyetteif its created by that03:14
Boyetteyes03:14
Boyetteor is it related to something else what exitting ibus is doing03:14
tomreynit is not easy to tell whether the symptoms you're seeing are those of this problem or a different one.03:15
Boyetteok03:15
tomreynbut i'd recommend to focus on the root cause, not the symptoms03:15
Boyetteso how to determine the proper versions03:15
tomreynso the first direcoty you copied files from is "bin"03:16
tomreynin there is a files "filezilla"03:16
kiarahi03:16
tomreynBoyette: so you copied bin/filezilla to /usr/bin/filezilla, replacing a possibly previously existing "filezilla" file there03:17
Boyetteyes there is a file called filezilla in /usr/bin which was recently modified03:18
tomreynBoyette: using the command "dpkg -S /usr/bin/filezilla" you can tell whether there is an ubuntu package installed which used to have a file at this location.03:18
Boyettefilezilla: /usr/bin/filezilla03:18
tomreynBoyette: this comand will either output nothing at all, or the name of the package which originally placed a file at this location, and then the location again.03:19
Boyetteok03:19
tomreynin the latter case, as it is here, the "filezilla" package placed the /usr/bin/filezilla file there before you overwrote it03:19
sazawaltomreyn, tomreyn Hey can you tell me why dpkg -S /usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/gdm3.css is not giving me any package results?03:19
tomreynBoyette: you should thus have this entire ubuntu package reinstalled.03:20
Boyetteok how to do that?03:20
tomreynBoyette: sudo apt install --reinstall filezilla03:20
tomreynBoyette: this should replace the /usr/bin/filezilla file, so it'll get a different timestamp03:21
tomreynsazawal: it's just a symlink on my system03:21
tomreynsazawal: readlink -f /usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/gdm3.css03:22
sazawaltomreyn, Thanks03:22
Boyettedone03:22
Boyetteyes now it has date of october 201703:22
tomreynBoyette: yes that's the original timestamp03:23
tomreynBoyette: in the other situation, so if the dpkg -S ... command had not returned anything, the right thing to do now would have been to remove this file you were examining03:23
tomreynso (don't run this now): sudo rm /usr/bin/filezilla03:23
Boyetteok03:24
Boyettewhen i start filezilla now03:24
Boyettei get an error03:24
tomreynBoyette: yeah don't , you have more files to clean up now03:24
Boyetteah ok03:24
Boyettewhats next03:24
tomreynwell all the other files you see in the file archive viewer03:25

tomreynit'll be undone shortly.03:26
tomreynBoyette: there's no need to describe the contents of these subdirectories, i have a copy on my screen.03:27

tomreynyou iterate over these files, doing what we did for the "filezilla" file03:28
tomreyneither reinstall the apt package, if any, or delete the file you copied to /usr/...03:28
tomreyni just explained this part ;)03:28
Boyetteok03:29
tomreynyour other option is still to reinstall03:29
tomreyneither way, keep in mind not to do this agai03:29

ashley_Hey. just a quick question. Sometimes on boot if I am not connected to my home network the nfs shares in fstab causes my computer to take ages to start. Is there a way to put a time limit on the entry in fstab? So that if nothing happens it just times out?05:03
mousesashley_: use 'nobootwait' as a option in those drives via fstab05:05
ashley_mouses, Thanks. I will give it a go.05:05

Kendos-KenlenHi :)05:51
Kendos-KenlenIs there a way to force ubuntu not to use pinentry-gtk ? I am trying to build a package from ssh, but get an error saying gpg-agent is unable to receive key.05:52
Kendos-KenlenHowever, it works well when running from a terminal. So I figured out that it's because pinentry-gtk is called (and as it cannot be run from CLI, it fails). Is there a way to disable this behaviour?05:53

ClutzJust install (reinstalled) a new Ubuntu 18.04 OS on sdb (2nd SSD), along side Windows 10 (sda; 1st SSD), but it is no longer booting into grub2. I've tried messing with the boot order to no avail. I can boot either OS, but would like Grub2. Anyone know how to fix this? I can see the EFI partition in GPARTED. I'm currently using a LIVE USB of Ubuntu 18.0406:26

Clutzmouses, That is what is odd. I installed Ubuntu AFTER Windows 10. Already had Windows 10 on here, decided to reinstall Ubuntu to fix an issue from a stupid PPA06:31
Clutzmouses, Even stranger, GPARTED shows the partition right next to Ubuntu where it belongs06:32

mousesmra90: everything looks fine, you have the right kernel module installed, everything needed is there - really not sure, sorry :(11:40
mra90mouses: I know ;(11:40
mouseswish I could be of more help on that one.  Perhaps the USB bus on the system is unable to provide enough power?11:40
mouseshave you tried a powered hub?11:40
mra90how about putting that port in slow mode?11:40
mra90mouses: no, what about ^11:41
mousesmra90: that's an idea, but doubt that will reduce voltage needs11:41
mousesare the devices plugged into a hub or direct into system USB ports?11:41
mra90mouses: directly to the port11:41
mousesmra90: laptop/desktop?11:41
mra90laptop11:42
mousesgot a powered hub handy for testing?11:42
mra90but it doesn;t matter I think11:42
mra90mouses: do you know how to dongrade teh speed of this port?11:42
mouseslooks like those things draw a pretty good amount of voltage, you might be overdoing what the USB bus can handle11:42
mra90mouses: and what this hub will tell me? Asssuming it will start working on it11:43
mousesmra90: not off the top of my head, sorry - but that's not going to change voltage needs, so I'd not worry about that11:43
mousesmra90: if it works on a powered hub, that will confirm that the laptop is not supplying enough juice to the USB ports to handle 3 high power devices like that at once11:43
mra90mouses: oh noo11:43
mra90I don;t have them connected at one!11:44
mra90once*11:44
mousesOh!11:44
mra90only one at a time11:44
mousessorry, but you said 2 of the 3 work fine?11:44
mousesright?11:44
mra90and as I said two are working the third one is not repsonding11:44
aidenguys, so you can't tell me how can I go back to using the touchpad?11:44
mousesmra90: likely something physically wrong with that third one11:45
mra90mouses: the way I test it is I plug one its OK so I unplug it and go with the next one11:45
mousesmra90: that's my best guess11:45
mra90mouses: yes however it work perfectly on other oS!11:45
mousesmra90: no matter what order you do it in, it's the same 'third one' that does not work?11:45
mra90how would you explain this?11:45
mra90yes11:46
mousesmra90: no idea, I'd just return it and swap it out to be sure11:46
mousesconsidering 2/3 of them work fine and it's all identical hardware, that kinda means (probably!) that something is wrong with it11:46
mra90but still it works on windows just fine11:47
mra90so it is ubuntu who fails to work with this device11:47
Slisshmmm somehow in 19.04 gnome alt-tab isn't working as a lot of extentions icons are not showing11:49
mousesmra90: I'm out of ideas - my bet is damaged hardware on that third one, or some kind of defect11:49
JimBuntumra90, Well... it's probably the kernel, but sure.11:49
mousesmra90: Sorry, wish I could help you more.11:49
mousesJimBuntu: he's got 3 of the same identical device and 2/3 of them work fine11:49
mousesthat does kinda narrow it down :)11:49
lotuspsychjeSliss: check extensions from gnome-tweak-tool perhaps11:50
JimBuntumouses, sounds like it's not just the hardware, but that unplugging and re-plugging is eventually creating an issue, right mra90  ?11:50
mousesJimBuntu: quite possible11:50
kadiroMy guess is the device when unpluged suddently cause that problem11:50
mra90mouses thanks for you support however one more time HW is OK11:50
mra90JimBuntu: hardware is fine, tested on windows11:51
mra90the problem is when I plug/uplog into ubuntu its not recognized11:51
mra90dmesg doesn't show anything11:51
mra90no action, just silence11:51
JimBuntuAlso to note: Because the hardware works in Windows, does not mean it's OK... that only means that the Windows based drivers might be more resilient to failures. It could be the root hub drivers or the device specific drivers.11:51
mousesmra90: so, if you shut down the system and boot fresh, and then plug in the first known good device, it works?11:51
JimBuntumra90, if dmesg isn't showing anything, it's a root hub related issue.11:51
kadiromra90, but why you want to plug unplug many times if one or more work for the first times11:52
mousesand then if you shut down, reboot, plug in the second device - it works?11:52
mousesand then if you shut down, reboot, plug in the third device - it works?11:52
mousesmra90: I'm betting you hotswapping ETH adapters might be causing an issue - try them one at a time, fresh boot for each11:52
mra90mouses: no with that one it is never recognized, no matter after reboot or not11:52
aidenI'm on ubuntu 19.04 can you tell me why the touchpad doesn't work for me?11:53
mousesmra90: what JimBuntu said - just because it works in windows does not tell us very much11:53
mra90JimBuntu: thats maybe but the question is how to fix/debug that?11:53
mousesmra90: is the one that is not working 100% identical?  Perhaps it has a different firmware revision / local software difference?11:53
mousesbut my cash is still on faulty hardware11:53
aidencan you help me please11:54
mra90mouses: sure I can not guarantee the firmware is the same11:54
JimBuntumra90, I would personally start by using hardware that can tell me the voltage/current draw of the device. Try it in Ubuntu and in Windows, look for differences... but only if I really had little choice other than replacing the USB/ETH interface. If you make more than $5 USD per hour, it's probably not financially responsible to invest the time in it compared to replacing it.11:54
mousesmra90: check that11:54
mousesaiden: Not much to go on, but first up perhaps fire off a 'xinput list' and confirm the touchpad is recognized and available as a device?11:55
mra90JimBuntu: I am just curious why it fails on Ubuntu, its not about spent money ;D11:55
mousesmra90: another idea - happen to have a boot disc/USB for ubuntu handy and able to boot a live session?11:56
mousesmra90: if so, test said failing device in a live session - that would eliminate 'something you did/changed from defaults in the installed OS' from the possible issues11:56
JimBuntumra90, In that case <rubs hands together> there are many troubleshooting steps that be taken. You may even want to try older kernels, maybe newer ones too. Check if that model of hardware was listed as not working via search engines. Check that the same issue exists using every different USB port on the machine/etc11:56
mousesmra90: as JimBuntu said, it's likely so not worth your time to go down this rabbit hole though, just replace the device.11:57
mra90Ok guys, thanks for all the suggestion I wil go back to this issue if I find any spare time for it11:58
mra90thanks again :)11:58
JimBuntumra90, my last input probably on this... I have a machine that doesn't like Android devices... but only when they are plugged into a specific root hub, the other 3 root hubs work fine... that one though, has an issue and basically the device shows up as being removed then plugged back in repeatedly.11:58
mousesmra90: glad to help, sorry we could not figure it out!  best of luck.11:58
aidenmouses:how can I see if the touchpad recognizes me?11:59
mra90JimBuntu: I see but this isse is common no matter what port the HW is plugged into11:59
mousesaiden: perhaps take a look at xinput -list and confirm the touchpad is even recgonized - post results of said command in a pastebin for us11:59
mra90JimBuntu: what about mofyfing this module/driver for this HW?12:00
termiHello12:00
mousesaiden: from a terminal, that would be xinput -list | pastebinit12:00
JimBuntumra90, It's a possibility... need to determine what the issue is 1st, then if the module has any impact on said issue.12:00
aidenmouses:I try and tell you12:01
mra90and what suprised me the most is the fact that right after it has been plugged OS doesn't even trigger module init function right? because if that happend I should have seen it in dmesg right JimBuntu ?12:01
JimBuntumra90, yes, you should be seeing it in dmesg unless it has maybe caused the hub to stop responding to anything for x seconds or the device itself has been forced into some mode where it's not speaking to the root hub12:02
aidenmouses:does not tell me12:02
termii'm searching for a .... easy to use virtual host management for a multipc gaming dev and other testing distro , with android ubuntu macos and other ... who have a some ideas, tools, or link ?12:02
mousesaiden: please post the results12:02
mousesaiden: hard to help you without a proper input device list12:03
mra90JimBuntu: where I can get the infoo read about the whole process of module/driver assignments and basically what happend when you plug sth into?12:03
mra90So I plugged sth into usb and what happens next?12:03
JimBuntumra90, that's going to be a very fun climb. Start with reading about how USB initialization works as a whole. Then I suppose diving into how the kernel interacts with USB.12:04
aidenmouses: I like it but I can't use ubuntu very well, thanks to the same help12:04

mousesJimBuntu: that's more of a learning cliff vs. curve you're going down xD /s :)12:05
JimBuntumra90, I can't suggest anything specific outside of the USB RFQs and whatever searches may turn up.12:06
mra90JimBuntu: okay thanks12:06
ioriamra90,   usually you unplug, plug again and check   ' dmesg | tail -30   '12:07
mousesaiden: not 100% sure 'pastebinit' is installed by default in your version, so you may need to do a 'sudo apt install pastebinit'12:07
mra90ioria: I do it even better I think12:08

vltHello. Can anyone recommend a minimal video player (like mplayer or mpv) that can play an h264 video file from console on an X server?12:44
mousesvlt: vlc12:45
mousesvlt: https://wiki.videolan.org/VLC_command-line_help12:46
=== str is now known as softwarelibregt
vltmouses: "After unpacking 131 MB will be used."  I'm looking for something much, much smaller.12:48
mousesvlt: 131 MB is pretty light for a media player with full codec support12:49
vltNo UI, no pausing or seeking. Just fullscreen playback.12:49
mousesvlt: sorry, not sure - mplayer and mpv also have CLI interfaces, perhaps that's a good solution?12:50
=== nat_ is now known as Natkeeran
vltI was just curious and thought there might exist something smaller. Without *full* codec support. Something that plays just a specific video file format would do.12:51
mousesvlt: you can build VLC from source and only install the support you need12:52
mousesvlt: but in this case, you're probably going to have to build something from source tailored around your specific needs12:52
vltOk, thank you :)12:53
mousesvlt: for sure, wish I could have been of more help with a easy solution :(12:53
loyalismOn a similar note, is there any MPC-HC alternatives than can play x265 HEVC for linux?12:54
loyalismalready tried vlc12:54
vltomxplayer on the Raspberry Pi seems extremely tiny but that just shoves the video file data to the hardware decoder :D12:55
termiloyalism Use the ini to store the settings (see Options > Player), this way you will be able to use different settings for MPC-HC x86 and x64.12:56
mousesloyalism: VLC handles x265 HEVC just fine12:56
mousesloyalism: literally watching video in it right now as I type12:57
loyalismmouses: are you on a nightly build?12:57
loyalismtermi: thanks, will try that12:57
mousesloyalism: nay, you just need - https://www.videolan.org/developers/x265.html12:57
loyalismmouses: thank you!12:58
mousesloyalism: check Plugins and extensions -> Modules -> Search for HEVC to confirm you have it, what version are you rocking?12:58
mousesit's been default there for a while12:59
mousesloyalism: another ezpz soultion is to install libde265 on the system13:00
mouseshttps://github.com/strukturag/libde26513:00
loyalismmouses: yeah, was running a considerably outdated version, makes sense - seems to be working now, thanks13:01
mousesloyalism: woot!13:01
mousesloyalism: I've had epic battles with VLC and getting proper chromecast support, really should write a guide about that someday - it was a rabbit hole of nightmarish joy13:02
loyalismmouses: yeah, i understand the pain and suffering involved, sometimes i feel like its only me that has issues with VLC but you look online and you arent alone haha13:03
mousesloyalism: HEVC is such a pain in general, I still avoid it like the plague - hopefully in a few years it'll see more mainstream support13:07
BluesKajmouses, any reason why libde265 isn't default, it's in the repos tho.13:07
mousesBluesKaj: no idea, probably just not a default thing most people need - it works well though13:08
BluesKajok thanks mouses13:08
mousesBluesKaj: newish video decoding $things are usually pretty slow to see mainstream adoption13:09
loyalismmouses: I used to have a massive x264 movie collection, but its so hard to beat the quality/file size ratio that HEVC offers, it really is great for saving space13:09
mousesloyalism: it really is - I just gave up and invested in a bunch of spinning rust :P13:10
mousesloyalism: and dealing with the 'it usually works so well it's amazing but when it does not it's a nightmare' reality of PLEX media server13:11
loyalismmouses: haha yeah its definitely a love/hate relationship, tried plex in the past but was having issues transcoding to my old firestick from what i remember13:12
BluesKajnot impressed with plex, think direct use of VLC or any other player is probly less clunky than one of those media suites that takes over your computer13:15
=== lolmac_ is now known as lolmac
BluesKajthat's an opinon of course based on trying plex and others like it13:16
cappicardgood morning. i have sound back on 19.04, but only if i uninstall pulseaudio...13:20

BluesKajcappicard, did you check your pavucontrol settings for volume and output devices13:23
cappicardgives me no devices13:23
BluesKajwhich audio chip and driver?13:24
pax_rhosHad a soft RAID with 1 dead disk.

Loaded backup partition table instead of main partition table! One or more CRCs don't match. You should repair the disk!` + `Partition table scan: MBR: protective, GPT: damaged`  + Caution `Found protective or hybrid MBR and corrupt GPT.13:24

BluesKajwhat about audio on the web?13:26
cappicardonly if i uninstall pulseaudio13:27
BluesKajfirefox requires pulseaudio afaik13:27
cappicardi use chrome.13:28
BluesKajand chrome audio works?13:28
cappicardonly if i dont have pulseaudio installed13:28
BluesKajthat's strange,13:28
BluesKajdid you purge pulse or just remove it?13:29
cappicardi purged it13:30
ducasseBluesKaj: this sounds really odd to me13:30
BluesKajnothing wrong with not using pulseaudio if alsa works on everything, no point having an extra layer of processing if you don't need it13:30
cappicardi even tried copying the pulse config files from the usb stick13:30
BluesKajducasse, yeah, nowadays most syatems require pulse for web audio. alsa will work fine on bare metal, but not in most browsers13:32
ducasseBluesKaj: that's my impression as well, didn't know any of the major browsers would do audio without pulse13:34
cappicardchrome works without pulseaudio. even the terminal bell still works13:35
BluesKajI didn't ude pulse for along time up until a couple of yrs ago when most browsers began to depend on it, worked well on intel audio chips on my pcs for a while13:36

zwikHi all, i've a problem with grub. During the upgrade to 19.04 the installation tries to remove linux-image-4.18.0-16-generic but I'm getting an error from grub saying "/etc/grub.d/bin/grubcfg_proxy: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypto.so.1.0.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory". What should I do?14:59
zwikI tried find out of libssl install, and it is15:02
zwikI tried finding out if libssl is installed, and it is installed*15:02
zwikreinstalling grub-pc also doesn't seem to resolve the issue15:03
willksmzwik, maybe try and install libssl-dev?15:04
zwikwillksm: just tried, doesn't seem to work unfortunately ;(15:05
willksmzwik, apt-get install libssl1.0.0 ?15:05
pragmaticenigmaWhy the focus on libssl, when libcrypto is the problem?15:06
zwiklibssl provides libcrypto afaik?15:06
zwikwillksm: that says this: Package libssl1.0.0 is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source  E: Package 'libssl1.0.0' has no installation candidate"15:07
pragmaticenigmahttps://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/Libcrypto_API - The libcrypto library provides the fundamental cryptographic routines used by libssl.15:07
willksmThat was my understanding too zwik ^. I presume that your libcrypto.so.1.0.0 file exists, just isn't in the expected location. Maybe try and locate where and sym link it to /usr/lib/* maybe?15:08
pragmaticenigmazwik: libssl depends on libcrypto ... so I'd focus effort on figuring out libcrypto15:08
zwikokay15:08
zwikis libcrypto++6 the libcrypto package?15:09
ioriazwik, libssl1.0.0 it's not available on disco15:10
neilduganhi .. because of limitiations of my internet modem ... can I setup a VM so that when a connection is made to a port, it forwards the connection to a different  VMs dependant on the port that was connected to?15:10
zwikI can link libcrypto1.0.0 from some snap, but that feels wrong?15:10
zwikI'm wondering where the file comes from, which package15:11
ioriazwik, i told you15:11
zwiklibssl?15:11
iorialibssl1.0.015:11
hggdhpragmaticenigma, zwik: libssl1.0.0 is not provided by Disco. It has been superceeded by libssl1.1.115:11
gofiois it usual in ubuntu 18.04 to find such discrepancies in free disk space between df -h command, gparted, and disk capacity tool? ("analizador de uso de disco" I'm using a system in spanish) in /dev/sda5 it says with df -h command there is 1,7G free, while in gparted it says 3.69G for same device, and at the disk utility it says 4G free. Just want to know if that is usual. Thanks15:11

gofioso the lowest lordcirth, cool, thanks15:14
gofiobetter to think is the lowest than the highest to be real indeed15:14
gofiothanks15:14
neilduganlordcirth, ok15:15
zwikI can't install libssl actually because apt blocks things because it tries to remove the thing which doesn't work because i miss libcrypto15:17

ioriazwik,  paste the output of   apt -s install libssl1.1   (but i think it's an old bug)15:19
zwik$ apt -s install libssl1.1 NOTE: This is only a simulation!       apt needs root privileges for real execution.       Keep also in mind that locking is deactivated,       so don't depend on the relevance to the real current situation!

tomreynbasalt: sudo apt update && sudo apt install ubuntu-desktop15:47
Jimmy7@pragmaticenigma, ok thank you15:48
gofioand try to open it as text pragmaticenigma isn't it and see if it is set as correlation or something like that? I'm looking here in this freenode server for an ubuntu channel in spanish but haven't seen it yet. Thanks pragmaticenigma! I need to know which word in each language corresponds to each other cuz I'm gonna be using both systems in spanish and english and is a pain to try to translate correctly when that has already been done a long time ago15:49
basalt@tomreyn: restart afterwards?15:49

ubottugofio: En la mayoría de los canales de Ubuntu, se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español entre al canal #ubuntu-es; escriba " /join #ubuntu-es " (sin comillas) y presione intro.15:49
Jimmy7So, my issue is, apt-get install has a problem. It always shows an error with dependencies. Something like "X depends of Y but it will not be installed.......You may have held broken packages"15:49
pragmaticenigmagofio: For a spanish Ubuntu channel see #ubuntu-es15:50
Jimmy7sudo apt-get -f install / -f install package_name / update / upgrade does not change anything15:50
gofiogreat pragmaticenigma already in the -es channel, I remembered I saw one even though not many people and like nobody like in 24 hours, but did not find it this time. again, thanks!15:50

basalttomreyn: icons are now here, but all the .desktop shortcuts are not working15:55
tomreynbasalt: if i recall correctly, that's a bug really.15:56
tomreynbasalt: are there spaces in their names?15:57
tomreynthose are the existing bug reports about gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons, the packaged gnome extension which provides the functionality of having  / showing / interacting with desktop icons / folders on 19.04 and later: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons/+bugs15:59
tomreynbasalt: ^ this functionality was removed from gnome core, so it was readded as an extension.15:59
basalttomreyn: no, if i klick it, it will be opened with text editor, also libreoffice xlsx will not be opened16:00
basalttomreyn: so i need a extension? do you have a url for me16:01
ioriahttps://extensions.gnome.org/extension/1465/desktop-icons/16:02
ioriabasalt, ^16:03
lotuspsychjeJimmy7: share a pastebin with your error output as adviced above to get better help16:04
Jimmy7I use a french version of Xubuntu so I do not think you will understand. It something like: "X depends of Y but it will not be installed [...]  You may have held broken packages"16:04

Jimmy7@lotuspsychje, you understand french ?16:05

lotuspsychjeJimmy7: did you add external ppa's to your system please?16:08
Jimmy7@lotuspsychje, No but like a moron I added kali linux repositories in the /etc/apt/sources.list. I deleted them but the issue is still here16:09
basalthi, looks like its working now with the desktop icons, the right click "allow launch" was missing, not all works, but not the libre office  xlsx16:10
lotuspsychjeJimmy7: best to use !ppapurge to cleanout external ppa's and its packages16:10
tomreynbasalt: what doesn't work now?16:10
basalttomreyn: a xlsx file located on the desktop directly, no link16:11

basalttomreyn: no but a "ö"16:20
lotuspsychjeJimmy7: did you try sudo apt autoremove yet?16:20
basalttomreyn: and if i remove the "ö" i got a "command not found"16:20
tomreynbasalt: please report a bug using: ubuntu-bug gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons16:21
Jimmy7@lotuspsychje, No I was afraid because sudo apt-get update/upgrade/autoremove sometimes try to remove important packages16:21
Jimmy7@lotuspsychje, I tried, it prints the same thing that sudo apt-get upgrade16:22
lotuspsychjeJimmy7: how about sudo apt purge vlc-plugin-video-output16:23
basalttomreyn: thx i will try, no account so far16:25
Jimmy7@lotuspsychje, https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/d6FrB2s76M/16:26
tomreynbasalt: if there are problems with getting the account created, ask in #ubuntu-sso (about the authentication part) and #launchpad (about launchpad specific issues)16:26
lotuspsychjeJimmy7: ok, thats somethign weird indeed16:26
lotuspsychjeJimmy7: how does your sources.list look like?16:26
Jimmy7@lotuspsychje, I tried right now to install htop and neofetch and it worked well16:27
Jimmy7I ask myself if it is not vlc which has a problem, lotuspsychje16:27
lotuspsychjeJimmy7: its just complains on vlc?16:27
Jimmy7@lotuspsychje, it did it with cups and hplip too, but aptitude fixed it16:28
lotuspsychjeJimmy7: did you perhaps install another version of vlc on your system, or installed manually?16:29
lotuspsychjeJimmy7: think you still need to clean your sources.list with !ppapurge16:30
Jimmy7@lotuspsychje, no but vlc seems to need an old version of libva216:30
lotuspsychjecan you pastebin your sources.list please?16:31
Jimmy7@lotuspsychje, https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/XjFGwGFQF9/16:32

Jimmy7@lotuspsychje, I think it's vlc which has a problem16:34
lotuspsychjeJimmy7: purge vlc?16:34
Jimmy7Tell me the name of some random packets so I try to install them16:35
Jimmy7To see if the issue appears again16:35
lotuspsychjeJimmy7: check if vlc is installed already first16:35
Jimmy7No it is not16:35
lotuspsychjeJimmy7: can you recall how you installed vlc exactly before?16:36

lotuspsychjeJimmy7: maybe you got vlc leftovers in your system16:41
gofioso far it seems there is no solution to what I'm looking for pragmaticenigma and should end up doing myself some kind of two column excel sheet or something like that. That would def solve the issue16:42
lotuspsychjeJimmy7: dpkg -l | grep vlc16:42
Jimmy7@lotuspsychje, I think so, I am trying to install some video/image readers and it works perfectly16:42
Jimmy7@lotuspsychje, nothing16:45
lotuspsychjeJimmy7: ok lets try bleachbit and cleanout your whole system16:46
Jimmy7@lotuspsychje, a lot of programs install perfectly16:47
Jimmy7It's vlc which has a problem16:47
lotuspsychjeJimmy7: i know, apt complains about vlc-plugin-video-output, probably conflict with an external ppa you had before16:48
Jimmy7I think too16:48
lotuspsychjeJimmy7: did you try a reboot yet after you cleaned out the ppa's?16:48
Jimmy7@lotuspsychje, Yes16:48
Jimmy7clear16:49
lotuspsychjeJimmy7: ok if bleachbit cant help, im out of ideas16:49
Jimmy7How to use it properly ?16:49
lotuspsychjeJimmy7: just run bleachbit as root icon, enable all and scan16:49
AedenSo I can't use my bluetooth headphone Lubuntu16:50
lotuspsychjeAeden: did you install blueman?16:50
AedenIt is already install16:51
Jimmy7@lotuspsychje, Ok thank you very much man, you helped me a lot16:51
lotuspsychjeJimmy7: lets hope it works16:52
AedenThe device is in the list, but it's impossible to see find/see it in pulseaudio16:52
Jimmy7@lotuspsychje, it deleted 63 files in apt16:52
lotuspsychjeAeden: you could try pavucontrol perhaps16:52
AedenIt's the same thing16:53
lotuspsychjeJimmy7: try a sudo apt update again after, and try again vlc16:53
Jimmy7@lotuspsychje, still not working16:55
lotuspsychjeok16:55
AedenSo, sadlyj, I will have to re-install windows to make my bluetooth heaphone work16:55

lotuspsychjegofio: dont discuss here please, only ubuntu support questions17:02
tomreynSven_vB: use strace17:02
Sven_vBlooks like root is not enough. sudo strace -fyxp $zpid¶ strace: attach: ptrace(PTRACE_ATTACH, ...): Operation not permitted¶ Could not attach to process.  […] or try again as the root user. […]"17:05
* Sven_vB investigates /proc/$zpid… at least …/fdinfo is empty17:07
Sven_vBthe cwd, exe and root symlink are unreadable for ls17:08
Sven_vBthere's a file syscat, it says "252 0xf 0x0 0x0 0xf 0xb771a258 0xb771a258 0xbf93196c 0xb77bbcb0". I'll try to find what 252 is17:09
Sven_vBseems to be exit_group(2) so I should probably search for left-over threads17:10

goddardbecause it will randomly cut out while listening to videos in chromium and I will open my settings/sound panel and it wont display anything in the "output" section and then eventually if I wait like 10 seconds things will appear in this drop down section again, but it will be other things I didn't set and I will have to change the device again18:17

pinnerupI have a dual-boot setup with Windows on /dev/sda4 and Ubuntu on /dev/sda5 (GUID partition table), and I'm in need of extra space on the Windows partition. Is it possible to shrink Ubuntu a tad, move it to the right and grow the Windows partition? Will GRUB be able to boot Ubuntu afterwards?18:34
lordcirthpinnerup, grub refers to the Ubuntu partition by the filesystem's UUID, so that should work.18:37
lordcirthBut always have backups before moving partitions18:37
jcottonGParted can do the shrink and move in one go18:37
pinnerupSo ideally I can just boot a Ubuntu live USB, used gparted to shrink-move /dev/sda5 and then it'll boot fine afterwards, even if the partition now starts in another place?18:39

The thing is, during that time, it is not responsive and often throws "Force close" messages every few seconds. It is accessing a network share mounted via sshfs.

pragmaticenigmamamonetti: Ubuntu currently provides systemd as a services management platform.22:04
tomreynDavid77: i don't actually know, and it depends on your installation, but the upgrader should warn you if indufficient space is available.22:04
mamonettipragmaticenigma: ok, i'll take a look to the documentation, thx22:05
tomreynDavid77: personally, i would try to ensure that ~3 GB are available (but this may nor actually be necessary).22:05

pragmaticenigmaDavid77: I would personally shoot for 10 GBs of free space minimally. I would also highly recommend you back up your system before upgrading.22:07
testuser_____Hi, I'm new to ubuntu but have been with linux for more than a decade: I upgraded ubuntu and it hosed my system - I think it is confused that my hard drive was encrypted. Does anyone know how to mount an encrypted drive from the liveCD? (the instructions here don't work: https://askubuntu.com/questions/653408/mounting-encrypted-luks-partition-from-live-cd)22:09
David77tomreyn: thanks. I have 3.7G free from df -h, all update done: it's ok?22:10
David77pragmaticenigma: yes i want to backup my home before, thanks22:11
pragmaticenigmaDavid77: The more space free you have, the less likely you will encounter an issue. There is no documentation for minimum drive space needed for an upgrade. A standard installation of Ubuntu requires a minimum of 25 GB.22:13
pragmaticenigmaDavid77: apt, which is used for downloading an installing the updated packages, downloads the software packages first, before it installs them. The more applications you have on your system, the more space that will be needed to perform the update.22:14
pragmaticenigmaDavid77: The installer "should" warn you if there isn't enough space on the drive before it performs any upgrade action.22:14
dtxI'm running discord from the snap store but it filling up my systemd log with some permission "apparmor=denied" lines22:19
dtxit uses like 100MB+ per day22:19
dtxdo i uninstall discord?22:19
dtxubuntu 180422:19
tomreyntestuser_____: please discuss and show logs, output, screen shots: what tells you that your upgrade failed, and that [ubuntu] is confused that my hard drive was encrypted"? the link you posted suggests you may have dmcrypt-luks encrypted block device layers, is this correct? what about the askubuntu.com instructions you tried did not work as expected, how do you know?22:19
tomreyntestuser_____: also discuss which version you upgraded from and to.22:20
=== gms is now known as Guest25968
testuser_____tomreyn, thanks, sorry I'm on another machine right now as the one running the liveCD isn't working too great network-wise (drivers not yet installed?)22:21
pragmaticenigmadtx: "snap remove {snap_application_name}"22:21
testuser_____tomreyn, when I try to run "cryptsetup" the expected device does not show in /dev/mapper22:22
tomreyntestuser_____: that's fine, just come back with those details when you feel like you're ready. i may not be around but likely soneone else will be22:22
testuser_____tomreyn, what more details do you need?22:24
testuser_____tomreyn, I upgraded from 18 to 1922:25
tomreyn!yy.mm | testuser_____:22:26
ubottutestuser_____:: Ubuntu version numbers are: YY.MM (YY=release year,MM=release month). Each year sees two releases, so just specifying YY is imprecise. See also https://www.ubuntu.com/about/release-cycle22:26
tomreyntestuser_____: i listed above which details are needed.22:26
tomreyni not yet seen any output, error messages or the like.22:27
testuser_____sorry, more specifically 18.04.2 to 19.0422:27
David77pragmaticenigma: from file manager all 36,4GB (4GB free no home separed) du -hs ~ -> 17G22:27
tomreyntestuser_____: how did you upgrade?22:28
* testuser_____ does not know what logs you would want and can't paste from the other machine22:28
testuser_____sudo apt update; sudo apt full-upgrade; do-release-upgrade22:29
tomreyntestuser_____: so you did two upgrades then?22:29
testuser_____I suppose so22:30
tomreyntestuser_____: i suppose that's worth mentioning22:30
testuser_____sorry :/22:30
tomreyntestuser_____: no problem, i'm just trying to understand whether we can work together on this.22:31
tomreyntestuser_____: so what seems not to work about networking on the system in question, from the live cd?22:31
testuser_____tomreyn, any recommendations appreciated22:31
pragmaticenigmaDavid77: Again, the upgrade tool *should* warn you if there isn't enough room on the drive. If there is any software packages you are not currently using, it would be advisable to remove those now, so you don't have to wait for them to download during the upgrade.22:32
testuser_____tomreyn, the dns resolution seems to be flaky, thus very slow in responding to requests; I edited /etc/resolve.conf to use 1.1.1.1 but appearantly I'm doing something wrong22:32
tomreyntestuser_____: have you tried setting your preferred resolvers via the network manager GUI?22:34
testuser_____tomreyn, let me try, didn't think of gui, hehe22:34
testuser_____tomreyn, still slow, connected to wired network even though there is technically wireless available (not tried it as I don't know if the wireless driver works)22:37
David77pragmaticenigma: ok thanks :) bye22:37
OerHekswithout dns, termbin works on IP too::  ls | nc 5.39.93.71 999922:37
tomreyntestuser_____: see what OerHeks said. this can be used to share output with us.22:38
tomreyntestuser_____: so what happens when you boot the system normally?22:38
testuser_____tomreyn, funny enough the wireless works better than wired22:38
tomreyngood.22:39
testuser_____tomreyn, trying to get hexchat installed on the computer in question so we can talk22:40
tomreyntestuser_____: can you answer my questions, too?22:40
testuser_____tomreyn, sorry, which questions specifically?22:41
tomreyn<tomreyn> testuser_____: so what happens when you boot the system normally?22:41

tomreynRead error: Connection reset by peer22:44
testuser1_____tomreyn, this is me on the machine in question. The computer is just blank on reboot. I assume it is grub that is the bootloader. Then it complains that it cannot find the appropriate filesystem - I assume because it doesn't know how to read the encrypted drive22:46
testuser1_____tomreyn, yes, I'm almost certain that dmcrypt-luks was what was used to encrypt the drive - it was already pre-installed on my system76 laptop22:48
tomreyntestuser1_____: what exactly does it say as the first error message? maybe take a screen shot with a smartphone or digital camera if you have such available, and post it22:50
testuser1_____tomreyn, the setupcrypt command did not successfully show the expected device in /dev/mapper22:50
testuser1_____tomreyn, unfortunately the executable completes silently without error22:50
=== nick_ is now known as Guest34388
tomreyntestuser1_____: i'm not familiar with the "setupcrypt" command22:52
testuser1_____tomreyn, shall I paste the output of `sudo fdisj -l` somewhere?22:52
testuser1_____s/fisj/fdisk22:52
tomreynright now i'm primarily interested to understand what exactly happened when you booted.22:52
nycI'm having ibus issues on 18.04.22:53
tomreyntestuser1_____: you say the screen is just blank when you reboot. maybe a recovery shell would work?22:53
testuser1_____tomreyn, just blank for a few momements until grub times out - then I get a grub prompt22:53
tomreynah, actual information there, good.22:54
tomreynso you get a grub prompt, and no erro message, if i got you right?22:54
testuser1_____sorry I would have to reboot to see the error message22:55
* testuser1_____ thinks encrypted drives are too much a headache22:55
tomreyntestuser1_____: do you have this system configured with full disk encryption but without a separate /boot file system?22:55
analogicalhow do I determin if Ubuntu is using a full or a half duplex network connection?22:56
testuser1_____shall I run fdisk to see?22:56
tomreyntestuser1_____: okay, post it to termbin22:56
tomreynlsblk, too22:56
xamithananalogical: ethtool interfacename22:57
analogicalxamithan, huh?22:57
testuser1_____tomreyn, https://paste.ubuntu.com?22:57
tomreyntestuser1_____: works, too22:58
xamithanThat's one way to find out,  you could just grep the dmesg for duplex too22:58
testuser1_____sorry where is termbin?22:58
tomreyntermbin.com , also <OerHeks> without dns, termbin works on IP too::  ls | nc 5.39.93.71 999923:00
tomreyn!pastebinit | also this, testuser1_____23:00
ubottualso this, testuser1_____: pastebinit is the command-line equivalent of !pastebin - Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output - To use pastebinit, install the « pastebinit » package from a package manager - Simple usage: command | pastebinit23:00
testuser1_____https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/t9Fbg2QHkq/23:00
testuser1_____tomreyn, piping to termbin is cool23:01
pragmaticenigmaanalogical: "ethtool" is an application for seeing network device settings and parameters. "ethtool {interfacename}" replacing "{interfacename}" with the name of the network device i.e. eth023:01
tomreyntestuser1_____: okay, can you add lsblk then23:02
testuser1_____tomreyn, sorry what is lsblk?23:02
* testuser1_____ tries piping to termbin23:02
tomreyntestuser1_____: run this:  sudo lsblk | nc termbin.com 999923:03
testuser1_____tomreyn, the nc commands seem to hang23:04
testuser1_____ok wait it completed23:04
tomreyntestuser1_____: and the output is?23:05
testuser1_____(my first pipe command anyway)23:05
testuser1_____termbin does not work for me right now; here is pastebin: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/ZrKqm4jwJC/23:06
tomreyntestuser1_____: so you have those 4 storages. it looks like what is currently sdc  is the live cd, dvd or usb you're currently booted from, does this seem correct?23:07
analogicalxamithan, to use ethtool I need were to find the interfacename how do I do that?23:08
testuser1_____tomreyn, nvm is the boot, the others are connected by usb23:08
xamithan analogical "ip a" will give all your interface names23:09
testuser1_____tomreyn, I would be happy to just mount the encypted disk, save abd backup "/home" onto TMP SSD, reinstall everything and call it a day23:10
tomreyntestuser1_____: so you're saying Disk /dev/nvme0n1 is what the system should normally be booting from, and what we need to fix?23:10
testuser1_____yes23:10
testuser1_____s/abd/and23:11
tomreyntestuser1_____: so how about this, does this work to get you access to the storage? https://askubuntu.com/a/65346023:11
testuser1_____thanks, let me see23:11
tomreyntestuser1_____: here'sa more complex and more complete variant which also takes UEFI into account: http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/T2kxPdWfMk/23:13
testuser1_____oh, it is the same article23:13
testuser1_____crap, the internet is flaky again23:14
tomreyn| nc 5.39.93.71 999923:14
* testuser1_____ killed the wired network and it is better now23:14
holoircUbuntu 19.04 isn't showing my network connections however it shows my wifi is on, how to fix?23:15
testuser1_____tomreyn, did you create custom instructions for me in your last pastebin?23:16
tomreyntestuser1_____: i'm old and slow, so no.23:16
testuser1_____tomreyn, let me try the first set of instructions first with nvme0n123:17
testuser1_____ok, that didn't work; trying reading your pastebin23:18
holoircNever mind, shutting it down and then booting it back up helped.23:19
testuser1_____tomreyn, the command to make the resolver work in chroot did not seem to work; I put it in termbin23:21
testuser1_____should I ignore the error?23:22
tomreyntestuser1_____: yes, you can just rm the symlink inside the chroot late and create a file there instead.23:22
DOSfanback.23:24
DOSfanquestion : I just installed Ubuntu 16.X (i386) on a nice terca laptop ... on boot I some times get the second monitor .. it keep switching between resolutios and then finally does nothing ... any ideas?23:25
DOSfanI was going to try installing video drivers BUT it already was proviinbg the resulution I wanted .. I can't get it again in the screen res. options (was going at 1600x1200)23:26
testuser1_____tomreyn, I'm stuck on the `vgchange -ay /dev/` command23:27
tomreyntestuser1_____: this is only needed if you have lvm2 devices. lvmdiskscan should tell23:29
tomreyndid you run this? what was th eoutput?23:30
testuser1_____root@ubuntu:~# lvmdiskscan | nc 5.39.93.71 999923:30
testuser1_____https://termbin.com/uziq23:30
tomreynthat's a "no"23:31
tomreyntestuser1_____: how was this ubuntu system installed, since this is not a common partitioning scheme?23:31
testuser1_____I don't know if I have lvm2 devices23:31
testuser1_____tomreyn, pre-installed when I got my system76 laptop23:32
tomreyntestuser1_____: with disk encryption? weird.23:32
tomreynand the cryptsetup command in line 16 worked?23:32
testuser1_____apparently - no errors reported23:33
tomreyntestuser1_____: so you now have what in /dev/mapper/ ?23:34
DOSfanhehehe back .. it's ALL ok .. video working just fine :)))23:35
testuser1_____tomreyn, I have only one file: "control"23:35
DOSfanI just had to make sure the laptop lid was closed so it REALLY forced it to use the second monitor. all good.23:35
tomreyntestuser1_____: post the output of: sudo dmsetup ls23:36
Bashing-omDOSfan: :)23:36
testuser1_____https://termbin.com/1i7c23:37
tomreyntestuser1_____: your cryptsetup comand did not succeed.23:37
testuser1_____tomreyn, any recommendations?23:37
tomreyntestuser1_____: are you sure that system76 installed ubuntu on this system , not some other OS, such as pop OS?23:38
ceibalkevin23:38
testuser1_____tomreyn, I don't remember23:38
Boyettehi23:38
tomreyntestuser1_____: what is the cryptsetup command you ran?23:40
testuser1_____cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/nvme0n1 nvme0n1_crypt23:41
tomreyntestuser1_____: and this returned no output?23:41
testuser1_____but just now I ran `cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/nvme0 nvme0_crypt`23:41
testuser1_____no output for either23:41
tomreyndid you run it with "sudo"?23:42
testuser1_____I'm already root23:42
tomreyndid it prompt you for a passphrase?23:42
testuser1_____nope23:43
testuser1_____tried it with sudo as well :(23:43
tomreynthen how would it have decrypted your decrypted storage23:43
tomreynas you can se eon lines 50 to 61 of https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/t9Fbg2QHkq/ /dev/nvme0n1 is the raw nvme storage device. and it is partitioned23:43
tomreynbased on what you stated so far, /dev/nvme0n1p3 may contain your crypto layer23:44
testuser1_____whoa! I got prompted for passphrase!23:45
testuser1_____should the device be in /dev/mapper now?23:46
tomreyni don't know which command you ran, but probably, yes23:46
testuser1_____the device does show in /dev/mapper but how do I mount it?23:48
tomreyntestuser1_____: continue from line 19 of http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/T2kxPdWfMk/23:49

tomreyncarry on23:51
testuser1_____mount: /target: unknown filesystem type 'LVM2_member'.23:53
testuser1_____tomreyn, seems so close but no cigar (yet?!)23:54
tomreyntestuser1_____: run "lvs" to see which logical volumes there are23:54
tomreynyou don't seem to have used the right path. but since i don't know which command you ran, i can only guess23:55
testuser1_____https://termbin.com/oghj23:55
tomreynso /dev/data/root is what you want to mount23:56
testuser1_____what would be the command? mount /dev/data/root /target?23:56
tomreyntestuser1_____: yes, probably23:57
testuser1_____tomreyn, you are AWESOME! I mounted the disk but I can't seem to copy it anywhere yet!23:59
