[00:04] JonelethIrenicus, did you remember to set the block size up? [00:27] why can't ubuntu unlock its keychain with a login ? [00:27] this used to be an option iirc, unless i'm just missing it now [00:31] ZeZu: normally it will; but if the login password changes, then it will fail [00:31] ZeZu: or, at least, this is how it workED. Not sure now [00:32] yeah this happens w. the password i use to install [00:32] for the last .. half dozen versions? [00:32] prob since 14.x (just a guess) [00:32] could be 10.x [00:33] until I moved over to KDE, it was working, to say, until 18.10 [00:34] I think the issue is/was with autologin [00:34] ZeZu: well, yes, this might cause it [00:34] i mean if you choose to autologin idk why you shouldn't be able to choose unlocking the keychain too [00:35] if can execute files, we're worried about the keychain? [00:35] it's not a bad thing, if there is an option to change it [00:35] there used to be [00:35] when it was first a thing [00:36] there likely still is a way just not in settings [00:36] ZeZu: autologin, if I remember correctly, means "login with no password". Then, yes, you will be required to manually open the keychain [00:36] seems 10.x is correct : https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1466519 [01:22] openvpn doesn't work properly when ran as a service on start up, but when I start it myself and connect it works perfect [01:29] im trying to apt-get install cuda [01:29] and it says stuff is broken [01:29] apt --fix-broken install doesnt work either [01:30] how can i fix it [01:31] !info cuda [01:31] Package cuda does not exist in bionic [01:31] what guide do you follow? [01:45] Why is apt-get ... ummm.... to put it nicely, so poorly coded that it will fill up /boot with 10 different kernels that aren't being used, have never been used, and have no need for? And how do I disable it from auto-updating? [01:46] This is why I stick to gentoo. [01:50] and seriously, I can emerge a new kernel in gentoo, make menuconfig it from scratch, and compile it nearly as fast as apt-get can install a pre-compiled kernel. REALLY WHY?!? [01:51] I mean, honestly, I'm looking for answers. I have a server that runs ubuntu and I'm just dumbfounded. [01:51] why is the distro that supposed to be easier more difficult? [01:51] slackin: to vent your frustration, please visit a different channel. to get help with ubuntu, you're welcome to ask support questions here. [01:55] Why is apt-get ... ummm.... to put it nicely, so poorly coded that it will fill up /boot with 10 different kernels that aren't being used, have never been used, and have no need for? And how do I disable it from auto-updating? [01:55] ^^ real questions [02:02] chances are, the user just didn't install linux-image-generic, as any supported installer would. [02:02] slackin: "so poorly coded" - Not . One meeds to learn how to use the tools at your disposal. For instance "Use the unattended-upgrades package to regularly run autoremove for you." . [02:03] Bashing-om, you say potato, i say potato. either way, I personally don't care for it. But I need it to behave. lol [02:04] slackin: If I can learn apt - anyone can :) [02:04] $ dpkg -S /etc/kernel/postinst.d/apt-auto-removal [02:04] apt: /etc/kernel/postinst.d/apt-auto-removal [02:05] tomreyn, how do i disable auto-update? [02:05] auto-update of what? [02:06] apt-get auto-updating stuff [02:07] by default you just get prompted [02:07] apt configuration is in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/ [02:07] idk, it does it on its own [02:08] there are some frontends to apt, including graphical ones. [02:08] some of those may behave differently. [02:09] in some ubuntu versions or others. [02:10] slackin: If you are hands on and do want to manually manage the system updates one can purge the unattended-upgrades package. [02:11] Bashing-om, its all remmed out in the config, so not sure why it's doing it anyway [02:13] slackin: /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades the file you are referencing ? [02:13] yes [02:14] you could state the ubuntu version, architecture, whether desktop (which flavour?) or server, and how you installed. this might enable people to support you. [02:15] new to ubuntu (and linux) in general here [02:15] how should I run a command after a wget download is completed? [02:16] tomreyn, to be honest, don't even know what version, amd_x64, server [02:16] Actually I want to test my internet connectivity under load for an amount of time so I want to keep downloading the same file to /dev/null over and over to see if my internet is going to break somehow [02:16] and I was planning to run the same download file once the download is completed [02:16] but if there is a more clever or easier or one liner way to do it then I'd love to learn [02:17] slackin: lsb_release -ds [02:17] 16.04 lts [02:18] then i there should be no updates installed by default. [02:19] tomreyn, I wish that were true, but this is the 3rd time I've had to manually remove a ton of old kernels because they were filling up /boot and breaking apt-get [02:19] mia: use iperf [02:20] slackin: Server, ya might want to dig deeper. Apt has a cron job at /etc/cron.daily/apt that determines how often it refreshes the dpkg database (apt-get update), and how often it downloads upgrades (apt-get upgrade), and from which upgrades it will autoinstall. The cron job uses the config files in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/ . [02:21] Bashing-om, hrm, i looked in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/ but yea, ill check cron and just remove it. sounds like the easiest path [02:25] tomreyn, I wanted to but I didn't get it [02:25] it seemed like I have to set up a server [02:32] mia: there are some public ones [02:33] https://iperf.fr/iperf-servers.php [02:33] https://iperf.cc/ [02:55] I can't chainload a .efi file in grub [02:55] how do you do this on ubuntu [03:06] is this a mimic testbed? === yvyz_ is now known as yvyz === deathonater is now known as Smeef === gms is now known as Guest57719 === ubuntu is now known as Guest11007 [04:51] ls [05:42] hey sveta how does the mini iso work [05:42] it doesnt install system [05:43] it fails and I expected it to start pulling the system from ftp [05:43] or http in this case because ftp had no mirrors listed [06:13] how is this supposed to work [06:47] tudo bom [06:47] ? [06:54] ola [06:55] Hello, is anyone here having success running do-releade-upgrade -d on Cosmic to Upgrade to Disco? The last few days, it has been failing for me with "WARNING:root:file 'disco-updates.tar.gz.gpg' missing" [06:56] ec0, disco is no longer development so I'd expect it to work no need -d (its needed a few days after release as upgrade-path gets enabled a few days after release-date) [06:57] ec0: you shouldn't use -d to go from cosmic to disco, now that disco is released [06:57] ec0, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DiscoDingo/ReleaseNotes has notes on 18.10 -> 19.04 upgrade path [06:58] ahah! [06:58] (sorry my language was poor) [06:58] I somehow missed that announcement, thanks! [06:58] I upgraded on machine last week with -d, and that explains the change [06:58] that is working, thank you guiverc2, ducasse [06:59] :) === Rammel2daMoon is now known as Rammelbieber [07:33] hi [07:33] how do i install ubuntu with a real time kernel? [07:36] BillyZane: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RealTime [07:37] hmm [07:38] BillyZane, I'd also explore package `ubuntustudio-lowlatency-settings` - but i'm no expert with it [07:38] so there's a 'Natty -realtime amd64' , natty was the release for '11 right [07:38] guiverc2, ok thanks i'll check that out also [07:48] Natty was 11.04; bionic is 18.04, cosmic is 18.10, disco is 19.04 .. (bottom right of wiki has last editor & date) === Rammelbieber is now known as afk_rammeln [08:04] :) === Wryhder is now known as Lucas_Gray [08:31] hi SwedeMike is there an archive of ubuntustudo which has a realtime kernel [08:32] hi [08:32] i am having a problem with windows and i wonder if ubuntu/linux uses same pattern/problem, maybe someone can let me know [08:33] i have lets say 4 files, named 1.mp3 2.mp3 3.mp3 and 11.mp3 [08:33] when i say in windows cmd to list them , "dir *.mp3" guess the result... [08:33] 1,11,2,3 [08:33] it looks like after ubuntu 14 canonical started pushing allix zen [08:33] yeah 11 comes after 1 when you have 2.mp3 [08:34] why? [08:34] hwo to make it list correclty the files? [08:34] because 1 is before . [08:34] rename them 01 02 03 11 and it will work :-) [08:35] sorted by asc not by value [08:35] there is no flag in windows [08:35] for this type of sort [08:36] I think under linux you may use ls -1v (it's one v) [08:36] ok [08:37] looking back at the aftermath what do you see [08:37] do you think the church could have been more agressive [08:38] that was always an argument === afk_rammeln is now known as Rammelbieber [08:39] maybe i past a code ? [08:39] or use pastebin to show you? [08:40] the emporer cognition hasentered the room [08:41] vader genuflects [08:42] soulseeker are you a bot¿? [08:45] can you link to the archive of something with the old realtime kernels === The_Milkman1 is now known as The_Milkman [08:48] according the SwedeMike s link there is no realtime kernel from ubuntu [08:49] so before continuing the install I may as well drop it and use an old realtime kernel === Rammelbieber is now known as afk_rammeln [08:51] there is lowlatency whatever that is === afk_rammeln is now known as Rammelbieber [08:56] you can also use sort -h to do that order, if you want it. [08:56] Also, I'm considering upgrading my Bionic install to Disco, there anything I should watch out for over that? [08:59] A_D, note: bionic (18.04) is only tested to upgrade to 18.10 (not skipping releases to 19.04), or to 20.04 (when released) - so if you go direct 18.04->19.04 you'll be outside of recommended & tested upgrade path [09:01] guiverc2: noted, will definitely go via 18.10 if I do [09:03] A_D, i'm not aware of anything; if you have problems I usually fix with re-install (using something-else & no-format of parts; that method would allow you to skip 18.10 as it erases system dirs & installs, then restores packages [if from ubuntu repos]) [09:03] iiiiiinteresting. Decisions decisions [09:11] Hello guys [09:13] I have two questions related to each other: 1) What's the minimum of RAM (in GB) a normal ubuntu will run properly, as I have 2GB and its always at 94-96% if I have an application running. And 2) how can I setup s keyboard shortcut (if there isn't one) that will run a task killer of some sort even if the system is almost unresponsive? [09:13] Thanks a lot for the answers in advance [09:15] martind_: you can run a 32bit version on that 2gigs of ram. [09:16] Will it consume less memory though?

[12:15] Hi [13:21] hi all. newb question. what do i use to run something from std out? for example: echo "ls -la" | [13:23] echo "ls -la" | sh - but why not just run "ls -la"? [13:23] sh!! thankyou [13:24] darmock im playing with dmenu. i want to use something like: history | dmenu -l 50 | xargs sh - [13:24] ah so you can interactively run a command from the history? [13:25] exactly! [13:25] i would just use reverse search but if you're just *playing* then.. :) [13:28] nekowaiidesu: for reference though, the key combination "Ctrl + R" activates a search through bash history. Start typing part of the command and you will see the closest matching result. the more you provide, the closer you will get to your previous command. [13:28] tbh im using fish at the moment which autocompleted history lol. dmenu is new to me and the novelty is fun :P [13:30] I use ""\e[A":history-search-backward" in .inputrc for that.

[13:44] stoned: cause lts upgrading the official way from that kernel, not sure how that will result..

[13:48] In July 2014, Rackspace introduced a minimum support fee of $50 for all new accounts to offset the rising cost of providing Fanatical Support.

Effective February 2019, you will see the addition of a $10 support fee on your invoice. [13:48] o/ me shakes a fist!

[13:48] we used to use RS and then left because their "fanatical support" is a sham. it is NO better than support you get at DO, Linode, Hetzner, Leaseweb, .... but you pay for it. [13:48] stoned: come to #ubuntu-discuss for discussions [13:49] ok [13:49] I'm in #ubuntu-discuss if you need more input on this :) [13:50] nabukadnezar43: best way to get issues solved, is full details, pastebins, ubuntu version, kernel version, package versions, etc..volunteers can think along better [13:51] lotuspsychje, well i'm on ubuntu budgie 19.04 using gnu octave 4.4.1 from official repos [13:51] lotuspsychje, when i launch octave from terminal it gives no output [13:52] it launches but gui freezes and shows black squares [13:53] it becomes unresponsive [13:53] octave-cli doesn't have any problems at all [13:54] nabukadnezar43: did you try launch the gui from terminal, maybe also tail -f /var/log/syslog ? [13:54] yes i tried it gave me literally no output [13:54] let me check syslog [13:58] Hello All, I want to install Skype on 32bit Ubuntu-Budgie. How can I do that nowadays? [13:58] martind_: try sudo snap install skype [13:58] lotuspsychje, "budgie-wm.desktop[1653]: Window manager warning: Invalid WM_TRANSIENT_FOR window 0x4200006 specified for 0x420000a." [13:58] just after i started octave gui [13:58] martind_: though, I can't imagine Microsoft is still developing 32bit versions of it [13:59] nabukadnezar43: dont think thats crucial to it [13:59] leftyfb: Yep. It is saying that i386 is not available already. [13:59] only amd64 [13:59] how can I find something priory 2018 where the i386.deb file will be OK to run? [14:03] hello guys, have you seen this issue after restart ubuntu [14:03] https://pasteboard.co/IcGT5Bl.png [14:06] hi how can i add windows to grub screen [14:06] mf_, os-prober [14:07] thats it? [14:07] on terminal right? [14:07] rufito_regalon: a bit more details please, your ubuntu version? system up to date? kernel version? upgrade, clean install? [14:07] i've just installed the last version [14:08] i've tried i hope it will work [14:08] thank you [14:09] system up now _) [14:21] Hello. I am a little worried about my DVB PCIe Card DVBSky S950. After fresh install it all worked fine. I copy the driver to /lib/firmware and Kaffeine was running, have found all channels. Later i tried to install TVheadend and Kodi. Symply if the Service tvheadend is stopped, will kaffeine report that the Card with "Montage Technology..." is not connected. Tvheadend can't find any DVB inputs. Any suggestion? [14:22] angryWolf: you might have better luck asking in #kodi [14:24] thx leftyb [14:24] thx leftyfb [14:58] when copying data from an SMB share to a local disk there is this initial time it takes 'Preparing to copy ...' in Nautilus when I guess it's indexing the data. With large amounts of data it takes a really long time for this to pre-copy stage to finish. Is there a way to disable this indexing feature? [15:01] hi [15:01] zetheroo: Use the terminal to perform the copy... It might be worth looking into mounting the remote share as well [15:01] zetheroo: The time it is taking is attempting to determine the file file sizes to give make the progress bar accurate during the actual transfer [15:02] pragmaticenigma: that doesn't answer my question though. [15:02] pragmaticenigma: I know I can use rsync via the terminal, but there too (without any progress bar) it takes just as long to get started actually copying the data over. [15:03] If I use rsync directly copying the data over SSH it start almost instantly and is quite a bit faster as well [15:04] zetheroo: You're dealing with two very different protocols and different approaches to obtaining the meta data about the files [15:06] samba takes nearly 5 min to start the copying of data and copies at @10MB/s, whereas copying straight over SSH begins within 2 seconds and copies at @20MB/s [15:07] So the question is... why is SMB so slow and can anything be done to make it faster? [15:08] zetheroo: There is nothing that can be done here, other than what you have already discovered to allow you faster transfers. The issue is samba has a lot of overhead, it's in how the protocol was developed. You would have to ask the Samba project teams on the mechanics of the protocol and what they recommend to make the process faster. [15:09] Ok [15:09] Are ssh-agent and gnome-keyring at odds? Wondering if both should be running, or whether it should be one or the other [15:10] i just updated to 19.04, and the cursor changes shape now when mouse over links. How do i turn this off, it is annoying [15:10] hello guys. I'm trying to install Ubuntu server on my desktop. but as I don't have ethernet (?) cable connected it doesn't also seem to find the WiFi card.. is there any way to make it work with WiFi? [15:12] Exterminador: Try the mini.iso [15:16] leftyfb: are you talking about the network installer? [15:16] Exterminador: yes. I think it might let you connect to wifi [15:17] well if the ethernet cable is around why not just connect it? [15:18] SimonNL: I don't have one. it's a laptop tho [15:18] leftyfb: I'll give it a spin, thank you [15:20] newdimension: You will have to provide more detail or pastebin a log file to help exemplify the behavior you are seeing. [15:21] grym: You'll need to be more descriptive of the behavior you're seeing versus the bahvior you expect [15:22] pragmaticenigma: That was just a question: whether I'm supposed to have gnome-keyring running if ssh-agent is running. The issue though is that I keep getting prompted for my ssh password every 5min or so. I'm trying to track the source https://dpaste.de/bDr3 === t0105201_ is now known as tobosoku131 [15:25] newdimension: ssh-agent is strictly for managing keys for SSH connections. gnome-keyring is a keyring to store credentials for everything that supports it. from the log, it looks like a password changed or credential changed, and gnome-keyring is having trouble syncronizing its credential with ssh-agent [15:26] pragmaticenigma: This started after I upgraded 16 => 18. How can I sync keyring with ssh-agent? [15:27] !yy.mm | newdimension [15:27] newdimension: 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-cycle [15:27] stupid question: on the mini.iso it asks for a ESSID. what the hell is that? [15:28] Correction 16 => 19.04 [15:28] 16 what? [15:28] Exterminador: I think that's just the name of your wifi network? [15:29] as I see it in my other laptop? like SFR_4B68? [15:29]
