gimpnixonI everyone, Funny thing started happening after last update from 5.0.0-13. when I start my Xsession I have no visible desktop and no right click functionality no hot keys or anything until i switch to a different TTY and back. I dont have to log into a new TTY just switch to it, then switch back and then my desktop environment is working again. on Dingo 19.04. any one else ever see this?04:46
gimpnixonSo far i've only really tried to make a fresh minimal xorg.conf with none of my dual monitor settings, but that didn't seem to change the behavior.04:49

cawkwhy is it so hard to record  MIC and whatyouhear at the same time in windows OS?  is this windows limitation? or does ubuntu have same problem?06:54
EriC^^cawk: i think if you record the audio mixer, and set the mic to also play on the audio mixer it should work07:02
cawkeric is that mean ubuntu have same issue07:02
EriC^^cawk: i was talking about windows07:02
EriC^^cawk: im not sure of windows 10 but i used to do this in win9807:03
cawkeric i see,  what about in ubuntu07:03
EriC^^ubuntu should be able to do it, in ubuntu the audio mixer is called 'monitor of blabla' i think07:03
heller_cawk: you can select on windows to "listen to this device" on the mic settings07:04
cawkwhy can't  ubuntu or windows  just let you pick both "mic" and "whatyouhear"07:04
EriC^^cawk: you have to set the mic to play on the 'whatyouhear'07:05
cawkeric then i hear echo07:05
gimpnixonHi, I have had some weird going ons since last update on 19.04. when I start my xsession i get a blank screen with a cursor on it, no keys work at all but the mouse moves. I can bring the desktop back and switching tty's and switching back. any idea?07:05
EriC^^like when you say something in the mic it will say it on the speakers at the same time07:05
gimpnixonby switching*07:06
EriC^^cawk: you could download a good mixing software cawk07:06

sentimentwhen I try to load the new restored Ubuntu from the grub menu, it fails with cannot find tocblock...08:15
sentimentand then fails back to this old Ubuntu08:16
sentimentI took these steps:08:16
sentiment1. Installed the new ssd08:17
sentiment2. formatted it with two partitions: 1 master and one swap08:17
sentiment3. restore the image to the master partition08:17
sentiment4. ran update-grun [new drive path] --boot-directory=masterPartition/boot08:18
sentimentthat's it08:18
ryuo... was it an image of a partition or the whole drive?08:18
sentimentone partition08:19
sentimentthe / partition, the OS one08:19
ryuook... still not enough information.08:20
sentimentalso the new partition was unmounted while the new image was being restored08:20
sentimentryuo: what kind of info?08:20
ryuohow the system is intended to boot.08:21
azhello, anyone has this package installed by default? evolution-data-server-common08:21
sentimentwell, I installed grub on the new drive, as indicated by the command above08:21
ryuorestoring a system in this manner can create issues for GRUB. you may need to reinstall it.08:21
sentimentand made the partition bootable08:21
ryuono, update-grub only regenerates configuration.08:21
sentimentI ran grub-install command as said above08:22
sentimentinto the new drive08:22
sentimentdo you think I should delete it entirely and reinstall it on the new drive?08:22
ryuosentiment: no idea. you haven't even said how you intend to boot it. there's two ways to boot PCs these days.08:23
EriC^^sentiment: you can try to chroot and install grub08:23
EriC^^sentiment: can you type "sudo parted -ls | nc termbin.com 9999" and paste the link it gives you here08:23
sentimentthis is a bios system. no EFI. I want to boot from the new drive08:24
EriC^^ok08:24
sentimentwhich is why I installed grub into it08:24
ryuook... what's the disk label?08:24
ryuoLinux can boot from either GPT or DOS labels.08:24
sentimentEriC^^: https://termbin.com/khdf08:25
monkeystanceoh cool, this channel is active08:25
sentimentit's old MBR08:25
EriC^^sentiment: do you have both disk's installed at the same time?08:25
sentimentyes, both are there08:25
EriC^^sentiment: /dev/sdb is the new one yeah?08:25
ryuowell, that's probably why.08:25
ryuothe filesystem was copied as is and has the same UUID as a result.08:25
sentimentyeah08:25
ryuoit's probably confusing the system.08:25
EriC^^sentiment: type "sudo blkid | nc termbin.com 9999"08:26
sentimentryuo: that's very true08:26
monkeystanceEriC^^, did you ask him if he installed netcat already?08:26

gimpnixonhey everyone small update on my issue where when i start my xsession i would get nothing but a cursor and it woudl move but no buttons would work, I could fix it by switching to a different tty and back but wanted a better solution, I've found that adding a force --replace line of my window manager inside my .xinitrc for after my desktop starts "fixes" the issue to make it where i dont have to switch08:27
gimpnixontty's to get it to work. thanks for listening08:27
sentimentso how come they are the same?08:28
monkeystancewhy do you have an ext3 partition sentiment?08:28
ryuomonkeystance: to make you ask why. :)08:28
sentimentit's irrelevant, but ... it's for accessing stuff from Windows08:28
EriC^^sentiment: type "sudo tune2fs /dev/sdb1 -U random"08:28
sentimentso that creates a new UID ?08:29
EriC^^uuid, yes08:29
monkeystanceok that's cool I guess08:29

sentimentEriC^^: thanks, it's generating08:31
monkeystanceI havent seen matching uuids before08:31
EriC^^sentiment: ok, is the /dev/sdb2 supposed to be the swap?08:31
srjii am looking for a complete ubuntu documentation. the wiki hard to navigate08:31
sentimentmonkeystance: I cloned just the / partition and restore it into the new partition08:31
sentimentEriC^^: I intend to change the swap as well, yeah08:31
sentimentafter getting the new system up and running08:31
sentimentbecause ssd is faster08:32

azHello, I'm having crash at envelope insertion in Libreoffice it seems that it happens on Ubuntu only could you please try to reproduce it? screen record: https://bug-attachments.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=15145909:20
andihttps://imgur.com/a/ALD0EjX This is how the creation of the new partitions look like. fdisk doesn't let me start the logical partition bevore 1003520, but why? The extended partition starts at 1001470.09:20
andimonkeystance: I did that a lot of times. This is why fdisk is really cool, you can hand in tasks and at the end when everything is correct hit write to do the real changes.09:21
andiIn this case I would delete the partitions and I would not be able to access the data anymore when I'm not able to create the partition at the same start positions because the superblock can't by found by the system, then.09:22
EriC^^andi: try creating the extended partition further back, ultimately you dont care about it anyways, all you care about is where the logical one is09:22
EriC^^you have a lot of space between the /boot and start of the extended anyways, so put it at09:22
EriC^^99737709:22
EriC^^and create the logical one in the proper place09:23
monkeystanceaz, I just tried it and it was fine, but it might be because I'm on libreoffice 6.1.5.209:23

detlyso, I have two machines on a LAN, ethernet connected, and one has a large hard drive attached. I'd like to access it somewhat transparently from the other machine, and I was thinking of mounting it via NFS or CIFS (Samba). Do either of those protocols use encryption, or do I need to run them through a VPN if I want that? Is there a better way to provide this access?10:59

detlydo I need to do that with NFS too? I can't remember11:05
Triffid_Hunterdetly: uid mapping? ah I think you want NFS for that11:07
detlyno I mean, if I use sshfs, and the uids are different on each machine, I'll end up with my files being owned by the wrong user11:08
Triffid_Hunterdetly: nope that's nfs. sshfs basically tosses uids out, so on local they're whoever called sshfs and on the remote it uses whoever you logged in as11:08
detlyahhh11:09
Triffid_Hunterdetly: to the point where root can't look at your sshfs mount unless you pass -o allow_other.. and now I'm looking at its help, it apparently *can* map uids and gids for you, but just uses local user -> remote login user by default11:11

Sugaren1gma: make GRUB take over the main drive your system boots to12:19
en1gmanow both drives are in my system but i have not booted to ubuntu yet. right now i booted to windows 10 but once i restart and boot to ubuntu 18.04 i know if there is an ubuntu update that messes with grub it will try and own my windows 10 drive12:19
SugarShould give you a boot menu12:19
en1gmahell no i dont want ubuntu to do jack shit with my windows 10 drive at all. i want to keep grub so it dont affect my windows 10 drive no matter what12:19
pi_hi12:19
en1gmabeen down that road way to many times12:19
en1gmai just forget how to tell ubuntu not to do anything with my windows 10 drive12:20
en1gmai can press F12 at boot time and pick which drive to boot from12:21
raver.12:21
Sugaren1gma: grub customizer would be helpful to you I think12:21
en1gmai thinking12:21
Sugaron ubuntu use grubconstomizer to change to boot menu and suff like that. also, if you tell grub to install on the right drive it shouldn't touch windows12:21
en1gmait wont touch windows until there is an update that uses update-grub12:22
en1gmawhich at that point will try and take over windows drive12:22
en1gmamaybe u should ask in #grub12:25
Sugarperhaps12:25
tomreynen1gma: how are those systems booting? UEFI or BIOS?12:29
tomreynyou'll need to answer this for both of them12:29
en1gmatomreyn both are uefi gpt12:30
tomreynso you have two EFI system partitions, one on each storage?12:31
Sugargrub should be able to work with both drives. My main machine has ubuntu and win10 on one HDD and arch on another, and it works fine en1gma tomreyn12:31
SugarI still reommend grugcustomizer in the apt repo12:31
en1gmayep i not going down that road. i want each drive to be 100 independent where i can pull the ubuntu drive out and my windows 10 will boot normal Or if i pull out windows 10 drive and insert ubuntu it will boot normal12:32
Sugarif you do fdisk -l you should be able to see the two drives, install grub to the ubuntu one, if you want you can make it know windows is there so you can use one drive to boot both, but both systems will be completely independant12:32
tomreynen1gma: hmm that'll get difficult with uefi where the firmware will only read the first ESP it finds12:33
Sugarat worst grub will think there is a windows drive still there if you remove it. If you remove the ubuntu drive just reinstall gurb en1gma12:33
en1gmadont forget both drives are currently working 100% when i use one at a time. (so grub is already installed)12:33
tomreynen1gma: what you could maybe do is to have the firmware change the order in whishch it'll access the two storages (some uefi firmwares allow for this).12:34
Sugaryou can either use bios boot menu to boot to whichever one, or install grub again and let it find the windows drive. it won't do anyhting to the windows one if you tell it to install on the correct /dev en1gma12:34

en1gmaafter that happens if i were to take out my ubuntu drive my windows drive would not boot normally13:01
en1gmaso yep they both work fine untul i take a grub update13:02
en1gmai wish this stuff could be controlled through bios for actually disabling drives13:02
leftyfben1gma: updating/running grub from within Ubuntu does NOT affect your Windows installation on another drive. Period.13:02
CheezOn an unrelated note, 2 systems, both ubuntu 18.04, both with same apt mirror, both running the same kernel (4.15.0-48-generic) apt update / upgrade on one wants to install the 4.15.0-50-generic kernel, apt update / upgrade on the other does not. Why the discrepancy?13:03

TJ-any ideas how to *restart* the initialramfs /init shell script from a remote SSH (dropbear) connection. Dropbear used to unlock LUKS and populate DM with LVs but seems like the /init scripts don't auto-detect that has been done so looking for a way to trigger /init to rescan for the root-fs device13:16
leftyfbTJ-: maybe the script should live in a different stage directory under scripts/ ?13:18

TJ-Jackneill: it could be a UEFI display hand-over issue. At boot if GRUB puts the display in a GFX (graphical) mode - which is the default - sometimes due to broken motherboard firmware when the OS starts and tries to take over the display and switch modes, the mode-switch fails and you end up not being able to see what the OS is writing to the framebuffer. There are some basic boot-tests can be done to13:58
TJ-diagnose if that is the case13:58

TJ-Jackneill: the bug report - when you collected the log-files that are attached to it, was that from a successful boot without you needing to do anything?14:05
tomreynTJ-: yes, that's what i gaethered when we worked on it yesterday.14:09
TJ-tomreyn: great, you're there! I was just adding some observations and recommendations to the bug report :)14:10
tomreynthis was a boot where it went past th epurple screen and he logged in to gdm and accessed the deaktop and then filed the bug using apport.14:10
tomreynTJ-: that's great, since i have not a lot of additional ideas at this point.14:11
tomreynit just does seem like buggy firmware14:11
JackneillTJ-, yes.14:12
TJ-tomreyn: TLDR: (1) is this a cold/warm reboot issue (therefore ACPI) ? (2) Can 'journalctl --list-boots' be used to identify logs of a *failed* boot and use 'journalctl -b X' to grab the log file? (3) has 'GRUB_TERMINAL=console' been tried14:12
tomreynTJ-: and i don't think "your" DST approach would be able to work around the acpi bugy either, right14:12
tomreyn(3) hasn't been tried.14:13
NebulaLovetest14:13
TJ-tomreyn: we need data to determine that; if we can grab a failed-boot journal it *may* show that efifb is unable to hand over to inteldrmfb - notice in the dmesg display is at 1920x1080x32 from efifb14:13
tomreyn(2), i don't know. i explained how to gather such logs, but didn't see any attempt to provide such.14:13
JackneillTJ-, i can force a good boot with selecting a recovery entry from grub (getting there from bios) and remove recovery and add nomodeset14:13
JackneillTJ-, so yes.14:13

tomreynthanks tj14:14
TJ-Jackneill: we'd expect "nomodeset" to work around it but it does it that cost of later functionality, display-wise, so it'd be good to find a better workaround14:14
JackneillTJ-, yes :)14:15
JackneillTJ-, as soon as you write the questions in the bug report i will try getting you logs,i am available  now.14:16
ruben_Hello. I'm trying to connect my headphones on front panel of my desktop, but I can't get any sound! Ubuntu 19.0414:16
ruben_Any help for that?14:16
ruben_I've tried alsamixer and pavucontrol and hdajackretask14:17
ruben_but no luck so far14:17
TJ-Jackneill: it's written :)14:17
tomreynruben_: does pavucontrol show that the headphones are plugged in, though? is this a desktop computer?14:18
=== svetlana is now known as Sveta
TJ-ruben_: has that socket been proved to work previously?14:18
ruben_tomreyn, where can I see that?14:19
ruben_TJ-, yes... always worked on windows... still working on windows14:19
JackneillTJ-, working on it.14:19
TJ-ruben_: great, that makes this easier!14:19
Jackneillaaand got a bad boot from cold powered off state (been powered off for some hours.)14:20
tomreynruben_: it would show up on the "input devices" tab then. i'm not at all good at debugging audio, though, if TJ- can help you there please work with him.14:20
TJ-ruben_: as tomreyn suggests, install/run "pavucontrol" and check the "Output" tab and the device "PORT" options for headphone connection(s)14:20
ruben_TJ-, on pavucontrol "output" I only can see digital exits (S/PDIF)14:21
TJ-ruben_: the usual cause for this issue is the hardware config (known as 'pins') is not correct for the particular PC make/model/audio chipset. There are workarounds if we can prove that is the cause. Kernel log will help there, so "pastebinit <( uname -a; lsb_release -a; dmesg )" and give us the URL14:22
TJ-ruben_: I might be telling you the wrong tab, let me check here :p14:23
ruben_TJ-, http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/4z2gNcwDhJ/14:24
TJ-ruben_: no, I was correct. "Output Devices" then for the "Built-in Audio..." in the Ports selector should be at least "Speakers" and possibly 1 or 2 "Headphones"14:24
avrdudei have a .exe downloaded, how do i determine if this is a 32bit or 64bit program?14:25
TJ-ruben_: line 851 onwards shows the pin config, just FYI14:25
ruben_TJ-, on that tab I can see the volume for firefox... I'm running some youtube to test... and i see the volume up and down but i only got digital exit (S/PDIF) :/14:25
tomreynavrdude: the "file" command may be able to tell.14:26
carronhello14:27
TJ-ruben_: seems like that device defines all its 5 outputs as "line", notice there are 0 hp_outs (that's headphones)14:27
TJ-ruben_: yes, this looks like a problem with the firmware of the system, or else that the audio device codec is so new the Linux kernel didn't know much about it14:28
ruben_TJ-, any solution?14:28
ruben_If i connect the headphones on back I got sound on headphones... the problem it's on front panel. only14:29
ruben_I've used hdajackretask to try to solve the problem, but nothing really happen14:31
TJ-ruben_: actually, it looks like you may be able to alter it in firmware settings, I'm reading (for that ALC887-VD "In the BIOS/UEFI, the digital output type is set to SP/DIF"14:31
JackneillTJ-, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1829402 your logs14:32
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1829402 in linux (Ubuntu) "Purple screen hangup during boot" [Undecided,Confirmed]14:32
TJ-ruben_: so I'd suggest your first check is to discover if there is a firmware setting that controls audio output selection. The mention in kernel log of snd_hda_intel loading the hda-jack-retask.fw hints that switching of the outputs is done internally on the device.14:32
Jackneill--list-boots cannot be used to get logs for the bad boot.14:33
TJ-ruben_: in which case it could be the device isn't detecting the headphones being plugged in14:33
TJ-Jackneill: fooey :(14:33
TJ-Jackneill: try the GRUB_TERMINAL test14:35
carronhello14:36
TJ-Jackneill: I predict GRUB_TERMINAL=console will solve it14:36
TJ-tomreyn: Jackneill and I suspect, if it does solve it, that the acpi_osi= trick might also solve it14:36
Jackneillacpi_osi=Linux ?14:37
JackneillTJ-, for a brief moment i saw 2-3 lines of text, first line is "error: no video mode activated"14:38
Jackneillwas unable to see more.14:38
TJ-Jackneill: gosh no; that is actually the problem! Linux responds to the OSI() enquirty with "linux" and the motherboard firmware thinks "I don't recognise that OS, I'll only enable very minimal devices" ! The 'trick' is to have Linux lie and tell firmware it is actually the latest version of Windows :)14:38
Jackneillbut this is a successful boot no purple screen this time14:38
TJ-Jackneill: so, GRUB_TERMINAL=console was successfully booted to desktop?14:38
Jackneillso acpi_osi=Windows?:D14:38
JackneillTJ-, yes, but its non-determinitsitc so its hard to tell14:39
Jackneillif the error still exists or not14:39
Jackneillrequires many boots.14:39
TJ-Jackneill: OK, I'll link you to my article on how to choose and set the optimum acpi_osi: http://iam.tj/prototype/enhancements/Windows-acpi_osi.html14:39
JackneillTJ-, i got a bad boot this time.14:43
JackneillTJ-, hanging black screen with 2 lines: first is what i said above, second: 'error: can't find command `hwmatch`'14:43
TJ-Jackneill: the fact you can see the text is a good thing, as it may point to the issue not being video at all, but possibly something else that is hanging the entire system14:45
JackneillTJ-, commented this fact on the issue14:45
TJ-ruben_: It looks like the HDA codec in your PC has a long history of needing fix-ups to add headset pin configs. I'm linking you to the up-to-date commit log: read through it see of you can notice your make/model (or something very close) mentioned. If you do find something, we can then check if that is included in the kernel on your system of if you need a more recent kernel.14:47
TJ-https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/log/sound/pci/hda/patch_realtek.c14:47
ruben_TJ-, will check the link14:48
kjwehfI just updated my 18:14 LTS to the latest version and now it can't recognise my screen resolution. I'm stuck on 1024x768 on a 3440x1440 screen. Does anyone know whats caused this? I've tried both the propietary and open source driver and it makes no difference14:48
TJ-Jackneill: "hwmatch" is part of the GRUB boot-loader, and (is supposed) to be executed by GRUB at boot-time to check if the GPU is included in a blacklist: "/boot/grub/grub.cfg:122:    if hwmatch ${prefix}/gfxblacklist.txt 3; then ..." - so it appears the hand-over from GRUB to Linux kernel is failing14:49
JackneillTJ-, please write that in the issue too :) so others can see.14:50
kjwehfhuh, TJ could that be my problem as well?14:51
kjwehfI randomly had grub appear on my boot and I have to type exit everytime I boot my machine14:51
Jackneillkjwehf, i get hanging purple screen14:52
Jackneilland randomly unable to boot.14:52
ruben_TJ-, i guess ALSA: hda/realtek - Comprehensive model list for ALC882 & co and ALSA: hda/realtek - Simplify alc885_fixup_macpro_gpio() are close enough to 88714:53
ruben_cant see nothing really that look like my sound card/codec14:54
TJ-ruben_: what's the date on that commit?14:55
ruben_TJ-, 25/26 june 201814:56
TJ-kjwehf's issue sounds to be GRUB, or more likely initialramfs, dropping into a shell14:56
TJ-ruben_: OK, that helps me find it!14:56

BluesKajvincenzo, the latest 19.04 image contains the 5.0 kernel if you care to google it15:06
lotuspsychjewelcome Cheline what can we do for you?15:06
TJ-ruben_: that doesn't appear to apply. the ALC887-VD support was added in 2012 so it must be an old chipset so we'd expect it to have support. HOWEVER, many specific makes/models of PC need 'quirks' adding to change defaults when the PC maker alters them. The driver contains many quirks but I do not see any related to the ALC887-VD15:07
NebulaLovels15:07
vincenzoBluesKaj, I know how to google, and I don't understand what you said: I do know, and wrote above, that 5.0 is in ubuntu 19.04. I want to install it on *18.04.2*?15:07

ruben_I really like ubuntu/linux... I've installed and tested new versions for years. This one looks really good. But I have always something missing/not working bahhh! That sucks!! lol15:10
vincenzolotuspsychje: I would install it on the spot but I've read everywhere that it's not recommended for "production", now we are not a company but the machine is going to be a server anyway15:10
vincenzolotuspsychje: on the other hand, a server without working sensors does not look like a great idea either...15:11
lotuspsychjevincenzo: for server reccomends, you can try #ubuntu-server15:11
vincenzolet me see, thanks15:11
TJ-ruben_: I *do* see another B150M motherboard mentioned (yours is "Asus B150M-PLUS D3"), but it is ASRock, and uses the ALC892 not ALC897, with the quirk "ALC892_FIXUP_ASROCK_MOBO"15:12

ruben_TJ-, i have sound on back in the grey jack... mic I think15:17
TJ-pink is usually Microphone, Green Speaker/HP, and grey line in/out15:19
ruben_I only got sound on grey15:19
TJ-ruben_: but as the kernel reports that system having 5 line in/out connections... who knows :)15:19
ruben_I don't mind the color... lol15:20
ruben_I just wish I can get sound on front :)15:20
TJ-ruben_: now, in a terminal, run "alsamixer", ensure you've the ALC882 device selected (not HDMI) then see if it has a "HP/Speaker auto detect" and if so, try toggling it/them whilst using the front headphones15:21
ruben_TJ-, I can't get the latest pastebinit... nothing really happens15:22

TJ-ruben_: so it appears that Asus have configured the ALC892-VD in a non-standard way, and the kernel only configures it for the default Realtek config, which has broken it. The Windows audio driver will have been modified to configure it correctly which is probably why that works.16:01

Apachezqwebirc69351: "with ubuntu"?17:20
Apachezyou mean the vm guest is running ubuntu?17:21
Apachezthere are a few methods to increase storage17:21
qwebirc69351rudOlf yes in virtual boc17:21
Apachezone is to simply increase it lets say from 80GB to 100GB or whatever, then the 20GB you just added will be unallocated so you must from within your vm guest create a partition17:21
Apachezdepending on partition type you can expand it on the fly sometimes17:22
Apachezmost foolproof way is otherwise to boot your vm guest from an iso, create a new storage with the new size, partition it as you want then copy the old storage to the new storage17:22
Apachezthen reconfig that vm from virtualbox so you remove the old storage (dont delete it yet) and boot on the new storage17:22
leftyfbqwebirc69351: you might have better luck in #virtualbox for how to increase the storage size of your VM. Then, if they can't help you resize your Ubuntu partition, come here and ask for help with it17:24

ChucaraHi guys, hope you can help me out here. I'm a bit lost on DNS configuration in Ubuntu Server LTS 18.04. I have completely lost my DNS, and I'm unable to resolve anything. My google results all require me to install packages, but since I can't resolve any names.. Well.. I'm stuck18:05
EdganChurch-: cat /etc/resolv.conf ; ls -al /etc/resolv.conf   It is probably a symlink.18:05
tomreynteb007est: make sure you wrote the iso file to the bootable storage properly.18:05
teb007estI just moved the ISO to /boot/images with PCMANFM in root18:06
EdganChucara: I meant that for you18:06

teb007estis that bad @tomreyn18:06
ChucaraEdgan: Aside from 4 lines of comments, that is18:07
EdganChurch-: Is it a symlink?18:07
ChucaraEdgan: Yes, it points to ../run/resolvconf/resolv.conf18:07
teb007esttomreyn : I moved the iso with opening a terminal sudo pcmanfm and another one and just moved it to /boot/images and then sudo update-grub18:07

tomreynoh ok. get one then, it's not that expensive.18:08
teb007estI understand18:09
teb007estthanks18:09
EdganChucara: If you want to get it working you could do this: mv /etc/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf.bak ; vi /etc/resolv.conf   and put this in https://pastebin.com/B6XtCsm018:09
EdganChucara: That will get you back up and going. But you should figure out why your dhcp server isn't giving you dns, or why dhcp isn't working18:09
ChucaraEdgan: That is strange indeed. Especially since other machine on my network get the right DNS just fine.18:10
ChucaraEdgan: Editing resolv.conf fixed my issue for now. But with 18.04, this will eventually get overwritten, right?18:12
EdganChucara: Maybe, but probably not18:12
EdganChucara: They change the other end of the symlink, but you replace the symlink18:13

fg_flatI am getting really strange behavior, when I use apt and it is downloading it causes my latency to rise dramatically system wide (including apt itself)18:46
tomreynfg_flat: how do you measure this latency?18:47
fg_flatlet me clarify, the network latency. just with ping but it's so extreme that it makes firefox and discord work much worse18:48
* QuinnStorm figures she'll just get flamed but pulls out her spanging sign, given she's finding it hard to look for work without a phone (let alone a home), anyone who can help - pelase paypal rtmf@beautifulsunrise.org18:48
fg_flat1500-3000ms typically, and if I ctrl+C out of the download it settles down to 10ms in a second or so18:48
TJ-fg_flat: it's possible your ISP may throttle certain sites or types of HTTP request18:49
tomreynQuinnStorm: sorry to hear about your personal situation, but this channel is only about ubuntu support, and what you post is off-topic here.18:50
fg_flatwouldn't that only throttle those connections though?18:50
TJ-fg_flat: it depends on how it is applied, but you need to gather evidence as to where the latency is originated before thiniking further on it18:51
fg_flatwell I've tried using other devices on the same wifi network and they work normally18:51
TJ-fg_flat: are there other devices on the same network? Do they also suffer latency when the PC is downloading with APT? Is there a proxy involved somewhere?18:52
tomreynfg_flat: it could also be that there is just a broken router or other network bottleneck getting in the way.18:52
usuarioBut i am ok w/ english18:52
fg_flatno, I just installed ubuntu to try to set up Caffe2 (couldn't get it to build on windows)18:52
QuinnStormsorry, I wasn't paying enough attention to which chanenl :/18:52
TJ-fg_flat: so Wifi, potentially a device or driver issue on the PC itself. Check "iwconfig" for increasing Invalid/Excessive counts whilst downloading18:53
usuarioThe file tells me I can't modify it18:53
usuarioIt says only read, how do I change that18:53

tomreyn*further18:55
TJ-fg_flat: so, we'e narrowed it down to device or driver, so let us find out what those are. pastebin the output of "lspci -nnk -d ::280"18:56
TJ-tomreyn: did you miss where usuario said they want to disable the camera and microphone? So I'd think they want to blacklist the drivers18:56

tomreynusuario: so you are trying to disable your computers' microphone and webcam, right? and you read something about "blacklist.conf". There is /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf (and other files in this directory) where you can use the "blacklist" instruction to prevent loading of some kernel modules ("drivers"). this can be used to prevent linux from using some of your hardware (such as the webcam and microphone)-19:07

FloatingPointIs anyone able to go fullscreen with Firefox on YouTube without a white stripe at the top of the screen? This can be solved by pressing f a dozen times, but it is still annoying.19:25
gambl0rehello?19:26
gambl0redoes firefox use hardware video acceleration?19:27
gambl0redoesnt it consume a lot of cpu when watching youtube?19:27
tomreyngambl0re: you've been asking this question in different ways for the past two weeks?19:29
CodeMouse92gambl0re: This room is mainly for Ubuntu-related stuff. I suspect you'll have better luck asking in #firefox19:29
FloatingPointgambl0re: yes, it worked fine until the latest updates, now it is kinda buggy. it works fine except that something is not detecting full screen properply.19:29
bpromptgambl0re:    video playback in the browser does consume mostly cpu, that's true of not just firefox, but any browser19:29
OerHeksgambl0re, not by default, and it is buggy https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/8hmnn7/firefox_gpu_acceleration_on_linux/19:29
gambl0rebrompt, yea but i read that ff/chrome doesnt support hardware video acceleration so it comes more cpu than it normally would when using windows19:30
FloatingPointgambl0re: sotty , was thinking that you were answering to me19:30
OerHekschrome does certainly not.19:30
gambl0rechromium on the other hand support harware acceleration?19:30
OerHekstry bing :-P19:31
gambl0rehttps://www.linuxuprising.com/2018/08/how-to-enable-hardware-accelerated.html19:31
bpromptgambl0re:    haven't checked, but I don't think so, when playing a video in browser the chromium-based browser runs the cpu up19:31
OerHeksoh, you answered yourself, should work on debian too, gambl0re19:32
usuarioI DID ITTTT19:32
usuarioI AM GOING TO REBOOT19:32
bpromptusuario:   also don't forget to press on caps-lock key19:32
gambl0rebrompt, google chrome doesnt support but chromium browser does if you do some setup19:32
usuarioSorry19:33
gambl0rethat article explains how to do it19:33
OerHekslolz19:33
OerHeksso why ask?19:33
bpromptgambl0re:   I can buy that, not sure I see the difference, but I run Opera59, which is chromium-based, but I never bothered checking, I mean, it uses the cpu a bit, but doesn't bother me as much, runs it like 30%19:34
gambl0rebrompt, does the fan turn on when watching hd youtube?19:35
bpromptgambl0re:    often, yes, not always but often19:36
OerHekssounds like a good fan19:36
stonedHow to edit PDF files in linux? I need to fill in some forms/apps19:38
bpromptdepends on what I run, I often have about 10 or 20 windows open and the cpu fan doesn't kick in, but on cpu-intensive stuff like LaTex writing, or doing drawings in Libreoffice Draw, it kicks right in19:38
bpromptstoned:    most pdf readers support forms filling, you don't need to redo the pdf for that19:39
bpromptright now I have 20 windows open, 2 browsers, 6 tabs, no fanning19:41
pragmaticenigmabprompt: the default PDF readers in Ubuntu do not have form filling functionality.19:41
tomreynbprompt: i don't think gambl0re was really looking for you to respond to their question, they left five minutes ago.19:42
bpromptalso qPdfview does too19:42
bpromptpragmaticenigma:    hmmmmm oook, I use Okular and it does :)19:42
pragmaticenigmabprompt: Ubuntu installs evince by default, Okular is the default for Kubuntu. This is the Ubuntu support channel. You need to make sure your responses match the topic of the room, or ask the OP what flavor of Ubuntu they are running to verify. Short of that, when you suggest that an application does so, mention which application you are using. Far more helpful than, "works for me" responses19:45

nc4494Hello, I have am running 18.04 LTS on the desktop. I have created a desktop launcher 'st.desktop' and installed it in ~/.local/share/applications. I can use it to launch my application. However, when I open the app it doesn't open under the st icon in the dock, but a new icon. Anybody know what I'm doing wrong? Screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/r7ZBnfN.png20:22

atralheavenHi, How can I regenerate the files in /boot/efi? btw I have a separate boot partition because my root partition is encrypted.21:38
Test0rhihu, where can i download an old version of kubuntu? 14.04 .iso?21:39
codedmarttomreyn: OK thanks barking up the wrong tree then.21:40
tomreynatralheaven: there are usually no files directly in /boot/efi, at least none placed there by Ubuntu, just subdirectories, one of which is the efi system partition mount point.21:40
atralheaventomreyn: yes, there were two directories and some files in them. how can I regenerate them?21:41
tomreynTest0r: ubuntu 14.04 has reached its end of support life, is not supported here (commercial support for existing installation sis still available from Canonical via !ESM)21:41
=== ccm1 is now known as ccm
tomreynatralheaven: the files in /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu/ should be placed there when you run   sudo grub-install21:42
Test0rtomreyn: i know just need the iso for an old vm21:43
tomreynTest0r: http://you.should.no.longer.use.these.releases.ubuntu.com/14.04.6/21:44
atralheaventomreyn: I can't boot into the os, I think those files or the partition itself is corrupted, that's why I need to generate them again.21:44
Test0rtomreyn: i know i just need it to extract an old kdewallet file21:45
tomreynatralheaven: what happens when you try to boot, and what makes you think these files got corrupted (did you make any changes which could have caused this)?21:46
ccmIs this community active?21:50
ccmI guess so21:50
ccmlol21:50
Bashing-omccm: To get a bite, ya got to throw out some bait :P21:51
atralheaventomreyn: I get an error that says no boot image found (or something similar) like there is no os installed, and when I used manjaro live image which has an option to detect efi files and boot to them, none of them work, previously I could boot using one of them.21:51
tomreynatralheaven: it's unusual that such would happen all of a sudden, but sure, it could be that the FAT32 file system on the ESP requires a file system check. you can do that from a live system.21:53
tomreynatralheaven: you could also chroot into the existing ubuntu installation while booted inti a live system.21:54
tomreyn'live usb21:54
atralheaventomreyn: I was trying to tell the bios which efi file to use, and there was an option for restoring those settings to default or deleting those settings, I guess that's why this has happened.21:57
atralheavenso to restore the efi files, I need to chroot, and then...?21:59
tomreynatralheaven: maybe update-grub, surely grub-install21:59
atralheavenshould I delete the existing files in efi partition?22:00
atralheavenand then grub-install?22:00
tomreynatralheaven: those ubuntuz installed should get overwritten that way. here's a guide (i have not tested it): https://superuser.com/questions/376470/how-to-reinstall-grub2-efi22:01
tomreyni'm not sure you actually need to "apt-get install --reinstall grub-efi-amd64" but it should nto hurt22:01
