[00:00] tomreyn, where are mounted file systems on ubuntu? [00:00] testuser1_____: where you mounted them to [00:00] I just want to copy the "/home" directory off [00:01] the live CD shows "TMP SSD" on the desktop but I don't find it in "/mnt" [00:01] well you just made file system of your previous linux installation available at /target, inclduing all of its directories [00:01] * made _the_ [00:01] yes the files are in /target but how to copy to "TMP SSD"? [00:04] testuser1_____: it's mounted to "/media/ubuntu/TMP SSD" according to line 24 of https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/ZrKqm4jwJC/ [00:04] you can also use th "mount" command to see mounted file systems [00:09] awesome! [00:10] I reformatted "TMP SSD" to ext4, remounted it to /mnt and am using rsync to copy it to there from /target [00:10] testuser1_____: okay, in the meantime you can: cat /target/etc/os-release | nc termbin.com 9999 [00:14] tomreyn, thank you so much for your help! https://termbin.com/xusds [00:15] testuser1_____: you'd be welcome if you'd been running ubuntu [00:16] tomreyn, sorry :( [00:17] rekt [00:17] tomreyn, isn't it 99% the same? [00:18] testuser1_____: irrelevant, we only support ubuntu users here. [00:18] testuser1_____: you previously asked for help here using a different nickname, and it turned out you're using pop os then, and you were told this channel is just for ubuntu support. [00:20] there is ##linux where volunteers support multiple distros. [00:22] tomreyn, I didn't see that it is strictly for ubuntu but I have no excuse - I'm in the wrong and should have known; I do know now ubuntu support is good and may just switch to ubuntu when I re-install (install the system76 drivers afterwards) [00:22] testuser1_____, and please clean up your nick!! [00:22] testuser1_____: Also, System76 offers lifetime support included with the purchase of your system. You're literally throwing away money but not having used them first === testuser1_____ is now known as someuser-that-di === someuser-that-di is now known as apprentice === apprentice is now known as apprentice__ [00:23] pragmaticenigma: do they actually offer _good_ support? [00:23] I'm still having ibus trouble. [00:23] I'm just trying to support the linux ecosystem as a whole [00:24] they seem to be pushing ubuntu so it increase mindshare for ubuntu [00:25] After migrating from fcitx to ibus, ibus doesn't appear to be capable of actually switching the codepoints it emits. The panel logo says it's switched to Russian, Hebrew, Greek, Arabic, etc. but it still emits Latin codepoints when typing. [00:26] apprentice__: It's appreciated. The difficult part is when support is offered for something outside of Ubuntu, even though it's similar to Ubuntu, things get out of hand. So it's appreciated that you desire to support the open source community, just understand that some forums are more specialized than others. [00:27] my question then becomes: why did they feel the need to make a distro that's _almost_ ubuntu, but not quite. [00:28] phone [00:28] I'm having this trouble on 18.04.2 ibus version 1.5.17-3ubuntu4 [00:28] bluezinc: This channel is dedicated to Ubuntu support questions. If you have a support related question please feel free to ask. If you would like to discuss other non-support related topics, please join us in #ubuntu-offtopic [00:29] mate-desktop version 1.20.1-2ubuntu1 [00:30] pragmaticenigma: nah. [00:31] 1. this _is_ about ubuntu. [00:31] 2. You started this tangent. [00:32] I have an Ubuntu support question about an ibus issue happening on 18.04.2 [00:32] bluezinc: you are attempting to have a discussion, please stop [00:32] !patience | nyc [00:32] nyc: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or https://ubuntuforums.org or https://askubuntu.com/ [00:33] pragmaticenigma: I'd like to thank you for making the linux community a little bit more insuffrable. [00:34] how do i format a usb to ntfs-3g? [00:36] nyc: Right now it looks like if things were working with fcitx, it would have been better to have stayed with that. From what I've searched online, it appears Gnome has some limitations when working with iBus [00:37] pragmaticenigma: I was moving to ibus for tegaki, but maybe it's just not there yet? [00:38] nyc: My thought is it's a significant core component, and I'm not sure migrating from one to the other is easily done. It might be something that needs to be setup from a clean install? [00:39] I don't have backup media for a clean install. :( I think ibus is actually the default, though. [00:43] Anyone here know of a good resource for trying to read the information the oom killer spits out so I can understand how with 32GB of RAM, ~23GB of that used as cache, and 4GB of unused swap my system still wants to kill processes when I run rsync? [00:45] There is an anomaly that might give a hint: it says the language support isn't installed completely in Preferences -> Language Support and lists a bunch of fcitx packages to install. [00:46] nyc: sounds like you found a path forward? [00:47] Not exactly. I'm at least trying to migrate to ibus for tegaki input. [00:53] I mean, I'd think having 215MB in 16KB pages for DMA32 range and 496MB in 16KB pages for Normal range would be enough: https://pastebin.com/bBkxwXG9 [00:56] * apprentice__ still on phone, but wonders why Canonical doesn't buy System76 and call it their offical hardware brand, at least for consumers [00:59] Hi everyone [00:59] my pc is randomly freezing when running ubuntu 19.04, but has been perfectly stable in 18.10 and windows for years.. memory tests fine [00:59] unfortunately theres nothing in the logs, to indicate why this might be happening.. and it can take up to 24 hours or more, for it to happen [01:00] i even clean installed to see if it might be related to upgrade.. and it crashed again [01:00] Please, does anyone know how to install the Snes9x emulator on mint19.1? [01:00] abel: Sorry, neither of those items are supported here. [01:00] im about to blow away 19.04 and just go back to 18.04.2 LTS, even though 18.10 was perfectly fine.. it will become unsupported :( [01:00] snadge, it seems like a hardware problem [01:01] Ok, sorry guys. [01:01] i was running kernel 5 and padoka ppa on 18.10 .. also with no issues [01:01] snadge: what about SMART status on the harddrive? Is windows still dual booted on the system, and does it experience freezes? [01:01] windows is fine, and i have other versions of ubuntu that aren't 19.04 that also seem to be fine [01:02] snadge: Do you have nvidia or amd gpus? [01:02] its an amd gpu, rx580 and amd cpu 8350 [01:02] Should I try upgrading to 19.04 and see if it clobbers enough of the config file state to incidentally repair it? [01:02] so no proprietary drivers installed [01:03] ironically it seems similar to this guys report.. https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2417456 [01:03] where my hard drive is flashing periodically, except sysrq doesn't work for me.. and i can't even ping it [01:04] snadge: have you attempted to have a secondary system ssh'd in and running top (or similar) to see if any process jumps to the top for CPU or high I/O usage? [01:05] thats not a bad idea.. i was thinking of setting up a network console, but i've just never had to do any kind of remote crash monitoring before.. or network console etc [01:06] if ping stops working then i dont have high hopes for it being successful anyway.. maybe serial? that involves hardware though [01:07] snadge: what I'm hoping is that just prior to the freeze, the culprit is on top and the connection drops leaving you with a snapshot prior to the freeze [01:07] yeah.. maybe its a kernel panic or oops that i don't get the opportunity to see because its not written to disk [01:08] another option would be to ctrl-alt-f1 and leave the pc like that and hope that it crashes whilst in that state.. with a full desktop with firefox/discord etc running [01:08] yeah, that might work too [01:10] im tempted to rig up a serial console [01:10] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Debugging#Kernel_Debugging_Tools.2FInformation lists some options incl. netconsole and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelDebuggingTricks discusses serial (though some instructions may be a bit outdated) [01:11] also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingSystemCrash [01:11] what's your hardware, snadge ? [01:12] 990fx motherboard, 8350 cpu, rx580 gpu [01:12] ive had it for a very long time and its been incredibly stable which is one of the reasons ive been reluctant to upgrade it [01:13] that's amd fx-8350? [01:14] yes [01:15] that's pre-zen, right? [01:15] if worst comes to worst i can just go back to 18.04 LTS.. but this is the first ubuntu release that i've experienced system freezes with since 2012 :P [01:15] ive ran them all [01:16] yes.. its http://cpuboss.com/cpu/AMD-FX-8350 [01:18] i wouldn't expect this to happen either. [01:19] i guess i'd do the serial console [01:21] i just need something to plug it into.. maybe my laptop? eg.. two usb to serial adaptors.. and a erm.. null modem cable? [01:21] snadge: so just to verify this, you said that after experiencing freezes on ubuntu 19.04, you tried other systems which did not freeze, even after running them twice as long as ubuntu 19.04? [01:21] yes that's correst, as weird as it sounds. [01:22] well i've only just installed 19.04 .. im in windows at the moment, im happy to leave it for a few days but I don't expect it to freeze [01:22] i just dont like using windows :P [01:22] maybe you coud install ubuntu 18.04.2 on an external storage and boot from that for a while? [01:22] i have a spare partition that i can happily install 18.04 on [01:23] I'm only upgrading from 18.04 to 18.10 in the hopes the fcitx, ibus, etc. state will get incidentally cleaned up by the upgrade process. [01:23] yeah i'll do that.. and look into getting the serial cables etc [01:28] <[itchyjunk]> Hi, how would I create a new text file in ubuntu 18.04. There is no options such as "Right click -> New file" ? [01:30] 18.10 breaks up ibus into packages differently, so the odds are significant. [01:31] [itchyjunk]: You open the program you would like to edit/create the file in, and save to the directory [01:32] Every release of Ubuntu after 10.04 was rubbish [01:32] Every release of Mint prior to 17.2 was rubbish [01:32] <[itchyjunk]> I am trying to open a text file to write some stuff down. I was doing `pico -w file.txt` but was wondering if there is an easier way GUI wise. [01:33] [itchyjunk]: This might help add the feature https://vitux.com/add-new-document-back-to-the-right-click-menu-in-ubuntu-18-04/ [01:33] stevendale: you got lost on the way to #ubuntu-offtopic i think [01:33] [itchyjunk]: it appears that if you create a "template" in the "Templates" directory, it will enable the right click menu. The template file can be an empty file [01:34] dax: Yeah I did lol sorry [01:34] !offtopic | stevendale [01:34] stevendale, please see my private message [01:34] stevendale: that's good enough for now [01:37] <[itchyjunk]> pragmaticenigma, wow. it did it. it works. this was a weirdly satifying experience. glad i asked. thanks a lot o/ [01:37] * [itchyjunk] runs around creating new text documents [01:38] <[itchyjunk]> Although, the "new folder" asks for a name while this doesn't. Not that it matter but i wonder how it was achieved [01:39] [itchyjunk]: if the file is highlighted after creation, you can easily press the F2 key to rename it [01:40] <[itchyjunk]> I noticed the F2 shortcut when i rightclicked it to rename it. [01:45] 18.10 splits ibus into ibus-gtk and ibus-gtk3 which looks promising regarding GNOME interoperability. === mouses is now known as calculon === calculon is now known as mouses [01:55] Should I upgrade all the way to 19.04? I think the .04 releases are the stable supported ones, right? [01:55] Hello [01:56] nyc: 18.10 will lose support in the near future, so I'd say it'd be a good idea. Though given that you're testing a few things, I would highly recommend making a backup of your system, just in case [01:57] I got a quick question if I buy an older PC thats an i3 and has 4 gb of ram with a 250GB HDD will I be able to run regular ubuntu or not? [01:57] I stay with the LTS versions. [01:57] nyc: april releases in even-numbered years are the ones with long-term support. so 16.04, 18.04, (future) 20.04, etc. [01:58] freshoutofbands, possibly but note that lubuntu and to a lesser extent xubuntu are optimized for older hardware such as that [01:58] dax: Ah, well, I'll have to move to 20.04 ASAP then. What's the .10 vs. .04 support difference? [01:59] nyc: LTS releases are supported for 5 years. Non-LTS for 9 MONTHS [01:59] nyc, errr 20.04 comes out in 2020. so unless you have a time machine handy, I'd suggest 18.04. for now. [01:59] Okay thanks cfhwolett I just prefer ubuntu over lubuntu or xubuntu, but thats my preference [01:59] nyc: there's a list of all support dates on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases [01:59] nyc: As you have to ask ,, then upggrade response for 19.04 is No - and Yes - if in the xx.04 the xx is an even number. [01:59] nyc, fyi: ubuntu releases are yy.mm in nature; so 20.04 is expected 2020-april. [02:00] (or if you want a picture, https://www.ubuntu.com/about/release-cycle ) [02:00] freshoutofbands, ubuntu should run on that so try it [02:00] thanks i got to spend 68 bucks but thats not bad at all I would say [02:00] cfhowlett: I'm hoping to clobber some fouled state with ibus configuration after migrating to it from fcitx by upgrading. [02:01] nyc OK ... I think I understood part of that .. [02:04] Looks like I'll need to upgrade to 19.04 so the support interval doesn't expire. [02:05] 18.04 has 5 years of support. what you are on about? [02:05] nyc 19.04 is a standard release, not a LTS (not even year + april) [02:05] cfhowlett: I'm doing an upgrade to hopefully clobber enough of ibus' state so it works again and I can use tegaki. [02:06] ahhh! ok. i take it that 18.04 will NOT solve your issue?? [02:07] cfhowlett: We can't figure out what's wrong with ibus after migrating back to it from fcitx, so the hope is that an upgrade will reorganize and just clean out enough of the configuration files to make ibus work again. [02:08] nyc, ok. I'm a bit surprised that a completely refreshed OS would be required to fix that. [02:09] cfhowlett: It's working around not actually being able to figure out the issue. In principle there should be some other way to fix it. [02:10] might I suggest reaching out to ibus support explicitly [02:10] cfhowlett: The channel is pretty quiet.

Hopefully things will work okay. [02:42] Now rebooting... [02:51] nyc: WE CAN YELL IF YOU LIKE [02:51] oh [02:51] helo is there good tutorial on ubuntu cloud [02:51] I try to prep images to run myself, get very confuse [02:51] able to pass the cloud image and my generated iso in okay [02:51] but is there more explanation [02:56] !cloud | bernyrd [02:56] bernyrd: Ubuntu Cloud Infrastructure is a ready to deploy Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) based on OpenStack. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuCloudInfrastructure for further details. [02:59] Yay! The upgrade to 18.10 worked. I have Russian, Hebrew, Greek, Arabic, etc. input back. [03:19] Okay, now trying to upgrade from 18.10 to 19.04 is failing. [03:21] never had ubuntu in-place upgrade work [03:21] you are optimist [03:24] Ah, held packages were silently being failed on. [03:29] congrats nyc [03:30] Endgame Day [03:30] Not going to use any social media until 6pm ist [03:30] Now I'm afraid to upgrade to 19.04 because I just got it working. === shan__ is now known as shan [03:33] assalamualaikum [03:33] wa alaikum salam. [03:34] hi i have question [03:34] how to install kde in ubuntu ??? [03:34] you can either use Kubuntu, which has that built in [03:34] or install KDE through apt [03:35] this work ??? [03:35] former: yes, latter: probably [03:35] never done it [03:35] user01_73r14r4ng: install kubuntu [03:35] that is the easiest approach for the average user [03:35] Kubuntu will be smoother [03:36] but if you wanna install it on an existing install... sudo apt install kubuntu-desktop [03:36] ok thanks [03:37] hi, a lazy question, how i can generate boot animation on ubuntu? [03:37] neyder: plymouth? [03:37] i didn't remeber that :-P [03:37] TY shan [03:38] :P good luck with whatever it is you're doing neyder [03:45] hmm, weechat on ubuntu doesn't behave properly [03:54] did ubuntu 18.04 get a new version of gnome or something? because it has the fat title bars, and a whole bunch of defaults that I don't like [03:55] eg.. the gnome-flashback session inherits the fat title bars, my default audio device selection is being ignored and a bunch of little things like that [04:08] snadge, 18.04 LTS comes with GNOME 3.28; what version of gnome you're comparing it to I don't know (you didn't say) https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BionicBeaver/ReleaseAnnouncement [04:15] it's my understading that system utilities were reimplemented in python in ubuntu, that were originally written in C or perl. [04:15] am i remembering incorrectly? [04:18] ornj: give an example [04:19] * ornj shrugs [04:19] if i had a better idea i would just have googled lol [04:19] can't check then really [04:20] well, no, but if it's known that the canonical team made an effort to rewrite certain stuff in python... [04:20] :/ [04:21] Well, this certainly isn't something I've ever heard before. [04:22] i guess i must have imagined that, or misunderstood something [04:23] now it seems unlikely, given that it would have inherited all that stuff from debian [04:23] I mostly want to avoid getting too involved with more of userspace than I care about, but I would expect people who set up userspace to avoid interpreters, dynamic linking, etc. below some level of middleware. [04:26] maybe what i was thinking of was an effort to move from ptyhon 2.7 to 3 [04:42] The EFI business with grub is making me nervous. [04:43] you've already got ubuntu installed, yes? [04:44] it has been a few months since it happened, but this boot scroll doesnt work again: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1807818 [04:44] Launchpad bug 1807818 in linux (Ubuntu) "Touchpad scroll does not work on occasion" [Undecided,Confirmed] [04:45] cfhowlett: I'm moving from 18.10 to 19.04 so I'm still within the support window. [04:46] right. so you're not really changing anything and the ubuntu install defaults should set you up with efi if needed [04:47] I'll worry less, then. =) [04:52] but you DID backup all essential data first. right? RIGHT? [04:55] upgrading...me to...good times [04:56] Yeah, backing up to what is the question. Here goes nothing! [04:58] its posslibe to change the sequence of /etc/network/if-up.d -Scripts? [05:00] *possible [05:01] Great news, спасибо! [05:01] I'm on 19.04 with ibus and a full suite of tegaki tools and input methods. [05:18] Thanks all! [05:18] hello is lubuntu fast enough to run to run on amd athlonx2 1.7 ghz 2 gb ram and nvidia graphics card [05:19] laptop: yes [05:20] what about lubuntu 19 [05:20] i know there are some problems with kernel 5 and nvidia propietary drivers [05:20] laptop: best way to see if your machine can handle, is try it [05:21] laptop: and before you choose an ubuntu version, ask yourself what you really need, stability or latest ? [05:23] stability but I cannot install lubuntu on my machine, it breaks down when I try to install [05:24] laptop: some older machines might not like later kernels, that happens [05:24] laptop: try an 18.04 lubuntu? [05:24] it does not work with 18.04 [05:24] it is so slow even with puppy linux [05:24] Ello all [05:24] for some reason debian 9 is okay [05:25] laptop: did you try a 16.04 lubuntu or xubuntu? [05:26] Got an odd issue with 16.04.6. I've been using kvm for months with no problem after the initial setup. Not after a reboot, none of my guests can get link-layer connection to the local network. (DHCP isn't working) [05:26] I can see that my kbeth bridge is up. [05:26] At a loss of what to check. [05:26] hydrian: desktop or server? [05:27] laptop, i'd suggest verifying your install media (lubuntu install) if you haven't already done it - verify download & write-to-thumb-drive was all good [05:27] googling has been no lep so far [05:27] lotuspsychje: server [05:27] hydrian: come join to #ubuntu-server mate, likeminded volunteers might know [05:27] cool bean.

[09:08] (like deluge) [09:09] mia: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TransmissionHowTo [09:10] mia: just dont add the ppa described there [09:10] mia: its on the official repos already [09:13] greetings [09:13] welcome to ubuntu support drew1 === drew1 is now known as rwc [09:14] i'm a bit confused about wayland display server [09:14] is it supposed to be better than the default x? [09:15] 'better' is subjective, it's newer though [09:15] then why does it exist?.. [09:15] it's supposed to have better security and be better prepared for future needs [09:16] so it makes sense to try to switch to it, right?.. [09:17] rwc: its the users choice [09:17] might be a bit early yet [09:17] X was neaver meant to do 3d stuff [09:17] rwc: X is old and not really designed with security in mind, plus for the past 20+ years it has been backwards compatible beyond any reason. [09:18] so technicaly in the future wayland will have more perf running 3d apps, correct? [09:18] rwc: and it depends on your gpu, wayland hasn't got proper support for nvidia yet [09:18] rwc: wayland's downside is that it is new. so not everything is perfect either. [09:18] yeah, i figured XD [09:19] i tried to switch to wayland yesterday, from x11 i3 (gnome integrated) [09:19] it is however much more stable than back in 2015 when i tried a distro defaulting to wayland [09:20] rwc: you can try it out, but some things aren't there yet [09:20] feels a bit slower, but hey, we are on linux not because of ideas, not strictly perf [09:21] anybody running sway? [09:21] rwc: for discussions, best to join #ubuntu-discuss [09:21] rwc: ubuntu support question you can place here [09:21] rwc: i am, sway is ok i guess [09:43] hi [09:44] welcome BlackBloc [09:44] thanks [09:47] BlackBloc: do you have an ubuntu question we can help with? [09:52] lotuspsychje, oh no I know how to do transmission web [09:53] what I'm asking is that: for instance when using deluge, you can use the native app (ubuntu) to connect a remote deamon [09:53] so I can control the downloads from the app itself, not some web interface [09:53] mia: ssh to the box running the deamon? [09:54] mia: you use the transmission-daemon package [09:54] ducasse, I have a deamon running on my raspberry [09:54] I can go to my raspberry ip adress and check the downloads from the web ui [09:54] so how can I connect my ubuntu transmission to that [09:54] mia: use transmission-remote-gtk [09:54] so that I can check things directly from the ubuntu application [09:55] Oh checking! [09:55] ??? [09:56] can we help you raspi_ [09:56] nothing [09:56] I just try to send a message [09:59] :q [10:30] halp [10:31] how do [10:31] 600m wifi dongle ? drivers?

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [10:35] I am sorry, trying to be polite [10:35] just go ahead with your question, and we'll try to help :) [10:35] Well I got this weird issue that my symbols on my keyboard are switched [10:35] like " [10:35] is with shit+2 and so on [10:35] Is there any easy quick fix that i can do [10:42] Do you know if it is fixable [10:43] yov00: you probably have the wrong layout selected [10:43] is it really that simple ?

[11:14] farmer: wich nvidia card and ubuntu version please? [11:14] lotuspsychje: 18.04 and it's GT640 [11:15] NVIDIA Corporation GK208 [GeForce GT 640 Rev. 2] (rev a1) [11:15] farmer: what does: ubuntu-drivers list say? [11:15] lotuspsychje: nvidia-driver-390 and nvidia-340 [11:16] farmer: wich driver is currently running? [11:17] lotuspsychje: I don't know how to check [11:17] farmer: software&sources icon/last tab additional drivers [11:17] I see 'nouveau' being mentioned multiple times in the output of `lsmod` [11:19] ahh, Using X.Org X server [11:20] farmer: ok try to install the 390 [11:20] I've got 2 more options there: nvidia driver metapackage from nvidia-driver-390 (proprietary, tested) and nvidia binary driver 340.107 from nvidia-340 [11:22] thanks, lotuspsychje [11:22] I really clicked through all tabs in that program at first, the problem with that tab is that it's contents don't appear instantly [11:22] as far as I understand [11:24] hello [11:25] my xubuntu 18.04 install weirdly lacks sshd, how to install it? [11:25] by default it's openssh-server, right? [11:26] farmer: apt install ssh [11:30] heyho everyone [11:30] if i want to add a mirror in linux mint which is also a debian based distro [11:31] !mint | tmm88 [11:31] tmm88: The Ubuntu channels can only provide support for Ubuntu and its official flavors, since other distributions and derivatives have repository and software changes. So please use their dedicated support venues, for example: Linux Mint (#linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org), Kali Linux (#kali-linux), and LXLE (#lxle) [11:32] i have to type sudo add-apt-repository ubuntu/bionic [11:33] but is there a way in ubuntu or debian based distros to list all the available repositories with a single command line instruction [11:33]
