[00:03] <superboot> Oh, I figured it out. I needed an interface name below ethernets:  thanks. :)
[00:46] <jayjo> are there other scripts in a repository other than the rpm that is built for the correct architecture? Eg when I run `apt-get install docker`, is there a way to look through this repo and was it installed?
[00:49] <OerHeks> ubuntu does not use rpm, but deb, and apt is usefull to to look into cache, or dpkg
[00:50] <alazy> I need to install two python modules for the system interpreter, dokuwikixmlrpc & xmlrpclib. I tried apt install python-pip python3-pip, but {pip,pip3} install {dokuwikixmlrpc,xmlrpclib} both start 'collecting' then return an error message: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement... What do?
[00:53] <jayjo> so can there be additional bash scripts and configurations or is it just binaries?
[01:06] <tds> jayjo: dpks allows for post-install hook scripts to be run
[01:06] <stoned> Hello I need to setup static ip address for my machine
[01:06] <stoned> Which file do I need to edit. is it still /etc/network/interfaces?
[01:07] <stoned> I need to have dynamic ip and gateway and subnet mask from dhcp, but custom dns servers
[01:07] <Annoyed> No, they changed things up with something called netplan.
[01:08] <jcotton> wait so you don't need static ip?
[01:08] <jcotton> (also for the record DHCP reservations is usually a better solution stoned)
[01:08] <Annoyed> Whether or not he needs a static is up to him. I think he's asking how to set his external NIC to use it
[01:10] <Annoyed> You used to be able to do that manually fairly easily, but as of 18.04, the rebuilt networking with something called netplan. A royal PITA in comparison with what it replaced, in my opinion.
[01:13] <stoned> I figured it out
[01:13] <stoned> Configure network options, and then to the wifi card, and then select ipv4 tab
[01:14] <Annoyed> Oh, you must be running a desktop install
[01:14] <stoned> there are two methods for automatic
[01:14] <stoned> i use the 2nd option, address only
[01:14] <stoned> Then there is a DNS option under that
[01:14] <stoned> I wondr if this is it
[01:15] <stoned> nope that's not it.
[01:15] <stoned> I'm trying to run pihole on ubuntu
[01:15] <stoned> It says it needs a static ip address
[01:16] <stoned> I'm on open public wifi, I can't have a static ip address
[01:16] <Annoyed> I'm not familiar with the GUI on Ubuntu. Haven't seen it in years. I use Ubuntu as a head end server, command line only. || No, you can't.
[01:16] <jayjo> tds: can i look easily into what those post-installation scripts are?
[01:17] <candidat> hello
[01:23] <tds> jayjo: yup, they're just files like /var/lib/dpkg/info/apache2.postinst
[01:35] <jayjo> hmm ok, I can see that script then docker docker. At what stage would users and groups be added? Doesn't seem to be in this script for docker (or I don't see it) but I get a docker gorup
[01:39] <neildugan> I am trying to develop some C code, if I did this is a VM would that protect the main OS etc. from incorrect pointers, i.e. overwriting other programs memory in from the code I am developing?
[01:42] <akem> neildugan, You should ask in #C in or some dev channel, but the memory between processes is protected normally.
[01:42] <jcotton> the OS won't let you touch other programs memory in most casesx
[01:42] <jcotton> exceptions exist like debugging and shared memroy
[01:42] <jcotton> but you have to explicity do that
[01:43] <neildugan> akem, jcotton, ok thanks for the info.
[01:50] <Lokimon> hello
[01:50] <Lokimon> how can i make a frugal install of ubuntu?
[01:51] <leftyfb> Lokimon: https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2018/02/ubuntu-18-04-minimal-install-option
[01:51] <Bashing-om> Lokimon: Several - how frugal do you want to go ? from bare bones, core or simplistic ?
[01:52] <jcotton> define "frugal"
[01:54] <Lokimon> i want to make a squashfs install on my hdd (or even a usb stick) (squashfs will be the root filesystem)
[01:54] <Lokimon> i also want to utilize tempfs ramdisk to load the whole system on memory, and possible overlays with aufs or something similar
[01:55] <Lokimon> i cant find any guides online, for ubuntu or any other distro actually
[01:55] <Lokimon> (wanted minimal from bare bones)
[01:56] <jcotton> you could start from ubuntu server i guess
[01:56] <jcotton> that's cli only
[01:56] <Bashing-om> !minimal | Lokimon This ?
[01:56] <Lokimon> Bashing-om, actually i wanted the same format the persistent live usb uses
[01:57] <Lokimon> it uses squashfs for its root filesystem, a kernel with support for overlays and casper, tempfs load the system to ram
[01:57] <Bashing-om> Lokimon: Out of my experience range there - can no longer advise :(
[01:57] <Lokimon> i wanted exactly that basically but a guide so i can do it manually
[01:58] <Lokimon> noone knows dont worry, even on gentoo or archlinux they have no clue
[01:58] <sorin-mihai> it beats me why, but you could just modify whatever sripts are being used to generate the ISO image. or just dd that image to the hdd/sdd
[01:58] <Lokimon> my only option is to understand how the build scripts for the isos work
[01:58] <Lokimon> and replicate it
[01:58] <Lokimon> sorin-mihai, yeah thats what i will do if i cant understand how the scripts work
[01:59] <Lokimon> i tried that before but i got some kernel panics and it didnt boot
[01:59] <Lokimon> i probably needed to rebuild some kernel modules or something. it isnt very straightforward
[02:00] <sorin-mihai> it would be interesting (for me) to know why you want to use that combination of filesystems
[02:00] <Lokimon> i want to make a custom live usb for myself
[02:01] <Lokimon> there is some info on an ubuntu guide i found on remastering the iso, it tells you how to unpack it, make changes and repack it
[02:01] <Lokimon> might read that one again
[02:01] <OerHeks> cubic ..
[02:01] <OerHeks> https://askubuntu.com/questions/741753/how-to-use-cubic-to-create-a-custom-ubuntu-live-cd-image
[02:02] <Lokimon> well i am not sure that would work if i wanted to use a different init system
[02:02] <OerHeks> but downside is: you have no updated kernel and such.
[02:02] <Lokimon> it stops being ubuntu after some point
[02:02] <OerHeks> .. different init system?
[02:02] <Lokimon> i dont like systemd that much
[02:02] <OerHeks> yeah, that is beyond the scope of this channel
[02:02] <Lokimon> openrc/runit is what i would prefer
[02:03] <Lokimon> well theoretically you can do that, but i cant find any concrete guide
[02:03] <OerHeks> i just pasted, good luck
[02:03] <Lokimon> thanks
[02:04] <alazy> I need to install the python module dokuwikixmlrpc for the system interpreter (dunno if py2/3, trying both). It returns this error message: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement dokuwikixmlrpc (from versions: 2010-07-19).      What do?
[02:05] <alazy> pip search dokuwiki returns a line with dokuwikixmlrpc so it looks like the module still exists, and I found it on pypi.org
[02:09] <OerHeks> alazy, try XML-RPC ? i think it is a typo, dokuwikixmlrpc
[02:16] <stoned> can you have an animated background in xorg desktop
[02:21] <sorin-mihai> stoned, you can, haven't used it in ages
[02:27] <stoned> wondering how
[02:27] <stoned> google isn't helping much
[02:27] <stoned> it returns lots of sophisticated stuffs
[02:27] <stoned> I'm just looking to set some animated background in xorg nomatter the wm
[02:27] <stoned> so that it shows up behind my terminal window with transparency
[02:27] <stoned> :D
[02:28] <stoned> currently using 'feh'
[02:28] <stoned> but that can't do animation
[02:28] <stoned> and urxvt transparency works and displays the background set by feh
[02:29] <akem> I think with mplayer or vlc with the correct option you can play a video on the background.
[02:34] <akem> stoned, https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/blog/neonsignal-165166/playing-video-on-the-desktop-background-3865/
[02:39] <alazy> OerHeks: no typo. I'm really trying to use the dokuwikixmlrpc python library between the vim plugin called dokuvimki and dokuwiki's xmlrpc interface. I installed the library by bypassing pypi and downloading the lib directly from the project's github url with pip, but turns out it's python2 only. Now trying to figure out how to make neovim use python2 for this specific plugin.
[03:13] <jayjo> I've downloaded the docker binary and extracted it to my bin, but I can't connect to the daemon when running docker currently. It works if I use apt-get install. What extra side-effects does the apt-installation do that I can replicate to run from a binary?
[03:21] <solidfox> hello, when i try to use my wacom tablet with krita, it crashes when i hover over the drawing area
[03:21] <solidfox> i'm not sure if this is a krita error or an ubuntu error
[03:21] <solidfox> i'm on ubuntu 19.04
[03:29] <solidfox> it doesnt happen in gimp
[03:29] <solidfox> so i guess maybe its krita
[03:29] <solidfox> that has the issue
[03:53] <juanschwartz> I'm in 18.04 and am using the nvidia drivers. I have a 4k monitor to my left and an ultrawide(3440x1440) to my right. In the nvidia x server settings, I have the 4k set to 2460x1440(scaled) and the ultrawide set to 3440x1440 with an abs position of +2560+235. After my machine locks and the screen goes black, it resets the offset to the native ubuntu display settings so the offset is +3840+235 and sets the resolution of
[03:53] <juanschwartz> the 3440x1440 to 2460x1440.
[03:53] <juanschwartz> is there a way to prevent the nvidia x server settings and native ubuntu display settings from fighting for control of my display configuration when i unlock?
[04:01] <anibic> Does M.2 SATA SSD has same performance level as SATA III SSD? Can anyone guide me ?
[04:06] <coz_> anibic,  if you google that eact question you may come up with something like yhis  https://www.online-tech-tips.com/computer-tips/sata-3-vs-m-2-vs-nvme-overview-and-comparison/
[04:06] <coz_> exact
[05:05] <the2048> So today is the day I have to reinstall because I broke something, and now I'm not sure which option to choose for the installer
[05:07] <the2048> I have three choices
[05:08] <the2048> I can either erase Ubuntu 18.04.2 and reinstall, install Ubuntu alongside Ubuntu, or erase the whole disk and install
[05:09] <the2048> Which one would save me time
[05:11] <jayjo> is it possible to get a secondary ip address to be recognized by ubuntu automatically in aws when I associate it? anyone ever done something like this where it has 2 ip addresses?
[05:22] <the2048> Are there any performance losses to encrypting my Ubuntu install
[05:30] <blackflow> the2048: it's negligible especially if you have AESNI capable CPU and are talking about FDE with LUKS
[05:33] <blackflow> jayjo: I don't know about AWS but yes, you can configure multiple IP addresses on a NIC

[07:56] <Synaptic> morning
[07:58] <the2048> It's 2 am for me, good ???
[07:58] <the2048> I don't know what to call this time
[07:58] <cfhowlett> "greetings" works 24/7
[07:59] <Synaptic> anyway after midnight is morning....
[08:06] <lotuspsychje> puneet07: details would help, ubuntu version, computer brand, kernel version, error logs,..
[08:07] <puneet07> I am not able to change the brightness level, the level of brightness is stuck at (20% to 30%, assumption form GUI).
[08:08] <lotuspsychje> puneet07: this is not going to help, its the third time you repeat the same question
[08:08] <puneet07> Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, Dell, 4.15.0-51-generic
[08:09] <lotuspsychje> puneet07: do you have an Fn + F key combo to higher/lower brightness?
[08:09] <puneet07> No, I guess, How do I check it?
[08:09] <lotuspsychje> puneet07: you could press the combo
[08:09] <puneet07> nothing happens
[08:11] <lotuspsychje> puneet07: what about brightness in your gnome systemsettings?
[08:11] <puneet07> lotuspsychje: I'm changing it but doesn't the affect the screen brightness
[08:11] <lotuspsychje> puneet07: is your graphics card driver installed correctly?
[08:12] <puneet07> any command to check it?
[08:12] <lotuspsychje> puneet07: sudo lshw -C video
[08:13] <lotuspsychje> puneet07: that would show a driver= at bottom
[08:13] <puneet07> lotuspsychje: I'm receiving this response "*-display                         description: VGA compatible controller        product: HD Graphics 5500        vendor: Intel Corporation        physical id: 2        bus info: pci@0000:00:02.0        version: 09        width: 64 bits        clock: 33MHz        capabilities: msi pm vga_controller bus_master cap_list rom        configuration: driver=i915 latency=0        resources: irq:50

[08:14] <cfhowlett> puneet07= did it ever work correctly or is this new behavior??
[08:14] <puneet07> cfhowlett: This is the first time
[08:15] <puneet07> lotuspsychje: Here you go, https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/3zK4sjm8P9/
[08:15] <lotuspsychje> !dmesg | puneet07
[08:18] <puneet07> lotuspsychje: It's a large response, should I pastebin it?

[08:20] <lotuspsychje> puneet07: did you add a kernel line acpi_backlight?
[08:21] <puneet07> tried from the internet | lotuspsychje
[08:21] <puneet07> I did
[08:21] <lotuspsychje> !acpi | puneet07 start here
[08:23] <lotuspsychje> puneet07: you might wanna check your ram too, problems there too
[08:24] <puneet07> lotuspsychje: I'll read the docs and see what I can do.
[08:25] <puneet07> lotuspsychje: one more thing, I've added the acpi_backlight in the grub, should I remove it?
[08:25] <lotuspsychje> puneet07: well you say it doesnt work properly, so the kernel boot line seems not working right?
[08:26] <lotuspsychje> puneet07: in your case, i would try booting kernel vanilla, and bios update first (if needed)
[08:26] <lotuspsychje> puneet07: if bios update did not fix, you can start playing with acpi lines,
[08:27] <puneet07> lotuspsychje: I get BIOS is upgradeable, should I do it?
[08:27] <lotuspsychje> puneet07: its always adviced to have up to date bios yes
[08:27] <lotuspsychje> !biosupdate | puneet07
[08:28] <puneet07> lotuspsychje: I'm in learning stage, so I don't much about it, updating bios will not flush the data and stuff, right?
[08:29] <lotuspsychje> puneet07: a bios update normally does not influence data on your harddisk, still always reccomended to have backups of your system
[08:29] <puneet07> lotuspsychje: So here
[08:30] <puneet07> lotuspsychje: So here's my situation, My laptop is provided by the company with linux ubuntu (bionic) pre-installed
[08:31] <puneet07> lotuspsychje: and ubuntu has multiple user accounts including mine as "admin"
[08:31] <akik> that DebuggingACPI page is last updated in 2011-03-03...
[08:32] <akik> it doesn't even contain the acpi_osi parameter
[08:32] <lotuspsychje> akik: we have been searching for the best wiki, but there are none better then this
[08:32] <lotuspsychje> akik: feel free to contribute in -discuss :p
[08:32] <puneet07> lotuspsychje: I don't want to mess anything other than my user account, because I don't know what data other user accounts have
[08:33] <lotuspsychje> puneet07: a biosupdate will not influence your users
[08:33] <akik> lotuspsychje: TJ- has that page about configuring acpi
[08:34] <lotuspsychje> !kernelparm
[08:34] <lotuspsychje> we also have this akik
[08:35] <akik> here's the one i had bookmarked http://iam.tj/prototype/enhancements/Windows-acpi_osi.html
[08:39] <lotuspsychje> akik: i will propose it, tnx

[09:57] <o-bit> Hello, I was trying a apt-get dist-upgrade, then power cut occured, When it came back, I can't do anything with apt, I keep getting:....
[09:57] <o-bit> dpkg: error processing package libfdisk1:amd64 (--configure):
[09:57] <o-bit> and I can't remove it
[09:57] <lotuspsychje> o-bit: could you pastebin the whole output please
[10:02] <o-bit> Help, can't use apt-get or even dpkg, keep getting error: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/J4Y5pFJJ8t/
[10:03] <o-bit> Happend after I just got a power cut, while in process of doing an apt-get dist-upgrade, now that error at the end is what I keep getting.
[10:04] <o-bit> dpkg: error processing package libfdisk1:amd64 (--configure):
[10:04] <lotuspsychje> o-bit: you could try: sudo dpkg --purge --force-all libfdisk1
[10:07] <lotuspsychje> o-bit: maybe you have external ppa's in your system?
[10:08] <o-bit> lotuspsychje: No external PPA's, I just installed Kubuntu like 2 hours ago.
[10:08] <lotuspsychje> o-bit: ok
[10:10] <lotuspsychje> o-bit: dpkg forced working?
[11:53] <davidystephenson> I am having trouble booting. I am running 19.04 with kernel 5.0.0-16-generic. I have a Nvidia 1070 graphics card. After an update, I was unable to boot after "bpfilter started". The only solution I could find was to remove all nvidia drivers (after trying 430, 418, 410, and 390) use only X. I am aware of the "disable wayland in gdm" fix, which I believe I have already implemented in /etc/gdm3/custom.conf with no success. Is
[11:54] <lotuspsychje> davidystephenson: try to get in your system back again with !nomodeset
[11:55] <lotuspsychje> davidystephenson: for GTX cards we often reccomend the ubuntu graphics ppa
[11:55] <lotuspsychje> !nvidia | davidystephenson
[11:57] <davidystephenson> Thanks for the response lotuspsychje. I am using the graphics ppa, but cannot get any version, including the auto installed Nvidia 430, to boot. I can only boot with all Nvidia drivers uninstalled.
[11:58] <davidystephenson> I'm not sure how I should use nomodeset. I can add it to my grub during start, right? Won't that just disable my graphics driver's which is where I am now?
[11:59] <lotuspsychje> davidystephenson: you can enter your system with disabled nvidia?
[11:59] <davidystephenson> Yes, it works fine with just x drivers. Just no HDMI or gaming is possible.
[12:00] <davidystephenson> As I am a game developer this is a bit of an issue.
[12:00] <lotuspsychje> davidystephenson: does apt give you errors when trying to install an nvidia driver?
[12:00] <davidystephenson> No, installation seems successful
[12:00] <davidystephenson> As far as I can tell.
[12:00] <lotuspsychje> davidystephenson: at wich point does it go wrong then?
[12:01] <rud0lf> hello.. because i have no usb stick, i'd like to place windows iso image on one of partition of my external usb disk, and boot from there
[12:01] <rud0lf> is it doable? mksusb or dd cloning will overwrite entire disk
[12:01] <davidystephenson> When I reboot is just freezes with a blinking curse
[12:01] <davidystephenson> Cursor*
[12:01] <lotuspsychje> davidystephenson: hmm, sounds more like an uefi issue
[12:01] <lotuspsychje> davidystephenson: you dualboot?
[12:01] <rud0lf> i googled it but it all says "make liveusb" irregardles what i look for
[12:02] <jeremy31> rud0lf: you may be able to boot the iso with grub
[12:02] <rud0lf> but how to place it on partition? mount iso, rsync/cp it to partition and use uefi boot?
[12:03] <rud0lf> i don't install stuff to often, hence no knowledge about it
[12:03] <davidystephenson> I only have Ubuntu installed. It is an efi system. I did disable secure boot and I see the 'starting in insecure mode" on start.
[12:04] <lotuspsychje> davidystephenson: your dmesg might tell you, kernel locked due to uefi settings, can influence graphics
[12:04] <lotuspsychje> davidystephenson: as a test try, secureboot=off and fastboot=off
[12:05] <davidystephenson> lotuspsychje: where and how?
[12:05] <lotuspsychje> davidystephenson: in your bios
[12:06] <jeremy31> rud0lf:  https://superuser.com/questions/1355604/boot-win10-from-an-iso-image-on-a-certain-partition-using-grub2
[12:07] <rud0lf> thank you :)
[12:08] <rud0lf> jeremy31: but the question lasts: how do i put iso from file into partition, not whole disk?
[12:08] <rud0lf> afaik, iso contains whole disk image
[12:08] <davidystephenson> lotuspsychje: in the bios it says secure boot disabled. I see nothing about fast boot, any idea what else it might be called?
[12:08] <jeremy31> rud0lf: use cp
[12:08] <rud0lf> oh that simple, thanks :)
[12:08] <lotuspsychje> davidystephenson: legacy or uefi
[12:09] <davidystephenson> So I should set uefi boot to disabled
[12:09] <lotuspsychje> yeah
[12:09] <davidystephenson> Will try
[12:12] <davidystephenson> lotuspsychje: with uefi boot disabled it hangs immediately on blinking cursor after bios screen, can't even get to grub.
[12:18] <sdclee> can anyone answer a simple newbie question regarding using a live ubuntu 18.04 setup to install from where I want to retain existing partitions? i.e. I want to preserve /home and so on (which is on its own partition) - the other issue is that I have raided drives but my ubuntu upgrade from 14 => 16 creapped out, hence the need to reinstall the OS - thanks in advance
[12:19] <sdclee> the raided drives match up ok (madam)
[12:20] <davidystephenson> lotuspsychje: I believe my current boot partition is efi but I'm not sure if that's relevant.
[12:21] <sdclee> well ok, putting the raid setup to one side for now, I guess the simple question is can I not off a USB (I have but am in LIVE mode) and install ubuntu without overwriting all petitions?
[12:22] <sdclee> s/petitions/partitions/
[12:22] <strang3quark> sdclee, I think you can do that in the manual partition mode
[12:23] <sdclee> (apologies for the typos - I have increased the font size now)
[12:23] <strang3quark> you can map the partition to /home and untick the format option, but you should do a backup anyway
[12:23] <sdclee> ok good stuff, so I'll get a choice at the beginning of the install
[12:24] <sdclee> I have partition backups (two full sets) but they have been done with acronis and whilst I have restored many things in the past for customers I haven't restored full linux partitions
[12:24] <sdclee> I am currently backing up manually critical folders to a 256GB mounted USB
[12:31] <sdclee> so long since I used IRC that I've forgotten almost every command - still googling - it used to show users in the channel at the RH side - what's the command to see users please anyone?
[12:32] <sdclee> (looks like more homework for me)
[12:32] <akik> sdclee: it's always good to test partition restore before you actually need to do it :)
[12:34] <akik> sdclee: you can use either /names #ubuntu or /who * while you are on a channel
[12:34] <sdclee> The trouble is that acorns software doesn't have that facility as such though it does validate the overall image and partitions within it
[12:34] <akik> /who #ubuntu seems to work too
[12:34] <sdclee> oh I tried those commands but nothing worked (let me go again)
[12:35] <sdclee> oh but outside the channel itself, not whilst I am in it I presume?
[12:36] <akik> sdclee: i just tested those in irssi while on the #ubuntu channel
[12:36] <sdclee> who does nothing (maybe because I am in a web client
[12:37] <sdclee> never mind, I'll give more time to IRC itself once I have my ubuntu box back up and running
[12:52] <The_LoudSpeaker> Hey! I have ubuntu 19.04 installed. I also ran 'sudo apt install unity' to install unity desktop. Everything's fine. I can select unity on log in screen and log into unity desktop. But when lock it. It goes to ubuntu 16.04 ish lock screen. I.e unity-greeter. Wheras when I log out, it goes to gnome's greeter. How do I set unity-greeter as default?
[12:52] <The_LoudSpeaker> If I am in gnome session and lock it then I go to normal gnome's greeter. Not unity-greeter.
[12:52] <The_LoudSpeaker> During power up also, default is gnome's greeter. I would like to have unity-greeter there.
[12:52] <The_LoudSpeaker> Any help is appreciated.
[13:43] <__raven_> how to fix apt dependency problems? seems like dependencies are not resolved any more on any package installation
[13:44] <EriC^^> __raven_: paste "sudo apt-get -f install"
[13:44] <EriC^^> !paste | __raven_
[13:45] <padan> is there a way to specify default mount options for nfs client? can't find docu on /etc/defaults/nfs-common
[13:45] <__raven_> EriC^^: i tried already. it tells me the same as without
[13:45] <EriC^^> __raven_: yeah i want to see the output
[13:45] <padan> i'm trying to do inline volume mounts in k8s but i need to specify nfs options, but you can only do that on pvs, so i'd like to just set the defaults for the server
[13:45] <EriC^^> __raven_: we dont have crystal balls here unfortunately, as you'll soon discover
[13:52] <__raven_> EriC^^: https://pastebin.com/Yh9D7Ty2
[13:56] <EriC^^> __raven_: paste "sudo apt-get install ubuntustudio-controls"
[13:56] <EriC^^> __raven_: are you using any ppas?
[13:57] <__raven_> https://pastebin.com/0wce4J6Q
[13:57] <__raven_> no
[13:57] <lotuspsychje> !nfs | padan
[13:57] <EriC^^> __raven_: ok, type "sudo apt-get install jackd2"
[13:57] <EriC^^> __raven_: it's kinda like a rabbit hole, but hopefully we're closer
[13:58] <__raven_> https://pastebin.com/dTqLvMFH
[14:01] <EriC^^> __raven_: which ubuntu version is it?
[14:01] <__raven_> 19.04
[14:02] <__raven_> xubuntu
[14:02] <EriC^^> !info libjack-jackd2-0
[14:02] <EriC^^> __raven_: type "apt-cache policy libjack-jackd2-0"
[14:03] <__raven_> as i said this is not studio/jack specific but denies any software install operation  which has dependencies
[14:03] <padan> lotuspsychje: there doesn't seem to be anything in there that talks about how to set default mount options, or what the possible values are in /etc/defaults/nfs-common
[14:03] <padan> there isn't a manpage for nfs-common either
[14:03] <EriC^^> __raven_: ah i see
[14:04] <EriC^^> maybe this will give us a clue to it
[14:05] <EriC^^> __raven_: also pastebin "tail -v -n+1 /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*"
[14:07] <__raven_> https://pastebin.com/s8c91uL9
[14:08] <EriC^^> __raven_: also the apt-cache policy ... command
[14:13] <__raven_> https://pastebin.com/76qp8F10
[14:15] <__raven_> hm it still references the kxstudio repos but i purged those
[14:16] <EriC^^> __raven_: try purging using ppa-purge
[14:16] <EriC^^> !ppa-purge
[14:18] <__raven_> EriC^^: also no change :/
[14:21] <EriC^^> __raven_: is the package still installed?
[14:21] <__raven_> EriC^^: no. purged every list and reference
[14:21] <EriC^^> try apt-cache policy again
[14:21] <__raven_> i did. still kxstudio repo
[14:22] <EriC^^> are you sure you used ppa-purge on the right repo?
[14:22] <__raven_> yes
[14:22] <EriC^^> hmm
[14:23] <EriC^^> __raven_: try manually removing it using apt-get remove -s as a dry run and paste
[14:24] <__raven_> https://pastebin.com/MtxV6n9H
[14:24] <EriC^^> __raven_: no i mean the libjack pacakge
[14:25] <__raven_> it would remove xubuntu-desktop too
[14:32] <EriC^^> __raven_: can you paste please?
[14:33] <__raven_> https://pastebin.com/1xVtpMyn
[14:34] <EriC^^> __raven_: well that sucks, i wonder what would happen if you remove and reinstall in the same command
[14:35] <EriC^^> __raven_: also how many packages are actually of the repo, type "dpkg -l | grep kxstudio" and paste
[14:35] <EriC^^> __raven_: also try 'sudo apt-get -s remove libjack-jackd2-0 libjack-jackd2-0+" and see if something happens
[14:36] <EriC^^> __raven_: also please make sure that apt-cache show libjack-jackd2-0 version is the repo one not the kxstudio one
[14:36] <davidystephenson> I cannot boot on 19.04 with 5.0.0-16-generic (no dual boot). I have a Nvidia 1070. After an update, boot freezes on a blinking cursor after "bpfilter started". I can boot if I remove all nvidia drivers and use only X. I tried every version from the ppa but all freeze during boot.
[14:36] <davidystephenson> Its similar to this: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1084550/ubuntu-18-10-stuck-on-started-bpfilter-while-booting, which says to disable wayland in /etc/gdm3/custom.conf, but that didn't help. I have secure boot disabled. I tried disabling UEFI boot but then it freezes right after the bios screen.
[14:39] <__raven_> EriC^^: hey it indeed just was this single package. problem solved ^^
[14:39] <__raven_> tnx a lot
[14:47] <EriC^^> __raven_: np.. did you remove the package?
[14:48] <__raven_> yes
[14:49] <EriC^^> __raven_: did you remove it with the depedencies  on it? such as xubuntu-desktop etc?
[14:50] <__raven_> no it just removed the package. nothing else
[14:50] <EriC^^> ah using the last command sudo apt-get -s remove libjack-jackd2-0 libjack-jackd2-0+ ?
[14:51] <EriC^^> anyways if you're sure nothing else got removed great
[14:53] <EriC^^> (apt-cache policy xubuntu-core should confirm)
[15:27] <fastfresh> I've got myself a new ssd, and want to make a clean install - ssd for /, old hdd for /home.
[15:27] <fastfresh> What is the optimal way to do this?
[15:37] <sarashina> I'm trying installing Ubuntu 19.04 on HP Pavilion x360 14-dh0003tx. Everything looks good except for Wifi said "No Wi-Fi Adapter found"
[15:38] <sarashina> SecureBoot is enabled, and I've checked "install 3rd-party drivers", and enter the set password + enter password in MOK after finishing installation of Ubuntu & rebooting
[15:39] <TJ-> sarashina: can you show us "pastebinit <( lspci -nnk )"
[15:39] <sarashina> No network currently, so pastebin should not work currently...orz
[15:40] <sarashina> Wait a second
[15:40] <TJ-> sarashina: OK, lets' try it more manually. I want to know the [????:????] at the end of the line shown by this: "lspci -nn -d ::280"
[15:41] <sarashina> 10ec:c821
[15:41] <TJ-> sarashina: thanks; give me a minute or so
[15:42] <sarashina> Thanks!
[15:43] <TJ-> sarashina: seems the linux kernel, up to and including v5.l, doesn't know about that device
[15:43] <sarashina> RTL8821CE 802.11ac PCIe Wireless Network Adapter [10ec:c821]
[15:43] <sarashina> TJ-: Aaaaah.......
[15:43] <TJ-> sarashina: I'll do some more digging
[15:47] <jeremy31> tomasphino github for rtl8821ce
[15:47] <TJ-> sarashina: strange; I see some out-of-tree kernel builds adding that module source going back to 2017, but no sign of it being proposed or added to mainline
[15:48] <TJ-> jeremy31: any ideas why its not even in staging?
[15:48] <jeremy31> TJ-: did you find something in an OEM kernel?
[15:49] <jayjo> I'm trying to get nginx on an ubuntu instance to listen on two public IP adresses. I've associated a second IP address with my box in aws, but no traffic is currently routing. I'm using 18.04, is netplan the current way to adjust the routes for the OS? I see an AWS guide but trying to get a better grasp at the procedure
[15:49] <jeremy31> sarashina: See https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?p=1607856#p1607856
[15:50] <TJ-> jeremy31: not Ubu OEM, just something from endlessm
[15:50] <sarashina> TJ-: I found some solutions for RTL8821CE after hours of Googling, however most of them ask me to disable Secure Boot...
[15:50] <TJ-> sarashina: if the HP has no network at all you need to put the files on a USB Flash storage device and transfer them across
[15:50] <jeremy31> sarashina: what result from terminal for> mokutil --sb-state
[15:51] <TJ-> sarashina: because the module is not in the linux mainline kernel it cannot be signed, so S-B would have to be disabled in order to use it *if* you don't have your own Machine Owners Key set up so you can sign the module yourself
[15:51] <sarashina> jeremy31: `SecureBoot enabled`
[15:51] <jeremy31> TJ-: I don't know where endlessm got that code.  They did have a complete kernel on github
[15:52] <TJ-> jeremy31: it says in their repo; from the RTL tar.gz :)
[15:52] <jeremy31> sarashina: No ethernet or USB tether to smartphone to get internet?
[15:52] <TJ-> "From Realtek official release rtl8821CE_WiFi_linux_v5.2.5_23431.20170824_COEX20170310-1212.tar.gz"
[15:52] <sarashina> jeremy31: No...
[15:53] <jeremy31> sarashina: What kernel are you using?
[15:54] <TJ-> sarashina: I'd suggest your first task is to download the source DKMS files from github onto a USB Flash, transfer them into the HP at /usr/src/rtl8821ce-5.2.5/ and make sure it'll build. With that out of the way you can either 1) disable SecureBoot (maybe just to test it) or 2) use mokutils to sign the module
[15:54] <sarashina> jeremy31: Just the ubuntu 19.04 out-of-box, 5.0.0-13-generic
[15:55] <jeremy31> sarashina: I would compile it for you but I do not have the 5.0 kernel
[15:56]  * TJ- is compiling it now
[15:57] <TJ-> sarashina: however, I've got the -16-lowlatency  kernel :)
[15:57] <sarashina> -16-lowlatency ?
[15:57] <TJ-> sarashina: if it builds I can pull the headers for -13-generic and build against that and let you have the .ko file. Then if you can boot with Secure-Boot disabled at least once, you can get network
[15:58] <TJ-> sarashina: my 5.0.0-..... kernel version (different to what you have)
[15:58] <sarashina> Oooh...
[15:58] <TJ-> sarashina: OK, it build, so I'll pull the headers you need and rebuild for that
[15:58] <jeremy31> TJ-: you might be able to use sed on the compiled module to change the vermagic from lowlatency to generic
[15:59] <sarashina> Oh my God thanks you both so much...
[16:02] <TJ-> jeremy31: not worth it; easier to build against the correct headers and not suffer later :)
[16:03] <jeremy31> -16 isn't available to me yet on Mint 19, must only be for Ubuntu 19.04 at this time or in bionic-proposed
[16:03] <sarashina> Or maybe I just buy a USB RJ45 adaptor and build by myself...
[16:04] <TJ-> sarashina: building now, be ready in a minute
[16:05] <jeremy31> sarashina, I don't imagine dkms or build-essential is installed by default on 19.04
[16:05] <TJ-> sarashina: whilst we wait you prepare the HP. Do "sudo mkdir -p /lib/modules/5.0.0-13-generic/updates/dkms  "
[16:09] <sarashina> TJ-: Ok done
[16:09] <jeremy31> -13?  TJ-
[16:10] <sarashina> jeremy31: Yes dkms is not installed by default
[16:10] <jeremy31> Whoops, that is correct
[16:10] <TJ-> sarashina: now download the built kernel module on your current PC from https://iam.tj/projects/ubuntu/8821ce.ko
[16:10] <TJ-> sarashina: put the module on a USB Flash, transfer it to the HP, copying it to the directory you created
[16:11] <TJ-> sarashina: you'll need 'sudo' for that of course
[16:11] <TJ-> sarashina: then finally do "sudo depmod -a"
[16:11] <TJ-> sarashina: then you'll need to reboot with Secure Boot disabled OR go through the mokutil process so you can sign it yourself
[16:21] <sarashina> Oh my God system totally freeze (even Ctrl+Alt+F1 cannot enter tty) as long as I click reboot......
[16:24] <TJ-> sarashina: The wonders of HP :)
[16:25] <sarashina> Now my computer (it seems Windows) is trying recovering itself, I guess it's because I force shutdown via hold power button...XDD
[16:26] <sarashina> Holy sh... Windows is broken XDDDDDDD
[16:27] <sarashina> TJ-: I'm so sorry for that I have to sleep right now because I've go to work tomorrow and it's midnight in my timezone. I will try tomorrow (or maybe days later) if I have time and will report in this channel to you, thanks you again!
[16:27] <TJ-> sarashina: good luck with it

[17:08] <oceanquake> Hi all.  I'm experiencing hard lock-ups on 18.04.  System is a laptop, passes memory and motherboard diags.  Magic SysReq works when it locks up and I can reboot that way.  Since Magic SysReq works, is there a way I can get any useful debug information to help in diagnosing lockup cause?
[17:11] <jeremy31> oceanquake: check out the kern.log files in /var/log look for the date/time stamp of when the lock-up occurs
[17:17] <oceanquake> jeremy31: thanks, I didn't realized this info was logged.  As I'd suspected, it looks like an issue with amdgpu.  I'm on hwe kernel - any recommendations as to best way to see if there is an update that might help?
[17:18] <jeremy31> oceanquake: google some of the error lines from the log and see if any fixes are found.  I don't know much about amdgpu
[17:25] <illuminated_> where does "archive mounter" mount things?  Where's its mount point
[17:32] <ayekat> illuminated_: findmnt might help to find out
[17:34] <illuminated_> hmm that doesn't seem to be helping

[18:32] <illuminated_> I want to modify /usr/share/applications/file-roller.desktop and comment out NowShowIn=KDE, but I figure if I make a change there, it'll get overwritten in an upgrade or something.  Is there anything wrong with copying it to $home/.local/share/applications and making the change there?
[18:38] <TJ-> illuminated_: you could do that if you only want it to affect you, or you can use dpkg-divert
[18:39] <ausjke> running ubuntu 18.04 GDM3 by default, question: can I switch user from command line(i.e. that will force GDM returns to login screen while keep all sessions open for the just-logged-out-user
[18:39] <illuminated_> thanks TJ
[18:39] <TJ-> illuminated_: e.g. "sudo dpkg-divert --divert /usr/share/applications/file-roller.desktop.divert --rename /usr/share/applications/file-roller.desktop "
[18:40] <TJ-> illuminated_: from then on any package affecting that file will write to the .divert version leaving the original that you've edited alone

[19:00] <jeremy31> Gallomimia: you might want to /nickserv set enforce on
[19:01] <Gallomimia> thought i had that. it's been a few years since i have freenoded
[19:02] <TJ-> Gallomimia: Coincidentally, I was looking at visuallvm and decided to design/write a GUI, but using an HTML5/CSS/Javascript front-end to a backend that uses the lvm shell. (HTML/CSS since it's easy to style and easily cross-platform)
[19:02] <Gallomimia> anyway. open to suggestions on working with my LVM setup. i quite badly need to examine how my LV's are arranged on the PV, which is actually a crypto volume
[19:03] <Gallomimia> really? are you still working on it?
[19:03] <TJ-> Gallomimia: "lsblk; lvdisplay -m"
[19:03] <TJ-> Gallomimia: I haven't started yet; I was only looking at visuallvm earlier today when I decided !!
[19:04] <Gallomimia> gosh i'd love to get my hands dirty on that
[19:04] <Gallomimia> but, i still struggle to play with any kind of CVS. the manuals are so vague to me when executing a complex merge
[19:04] <TJ-> Gallomimia: I got to thinking the quickest way of creating something that is maintainable AND can support all the complexities of LVM. That made me think of a backend that interfaces to the lvm shell itself, driven by a Javascript front-end
[19:04] <Gallomimia> that would be a highly extensible system
[19:05] <Gallomimia> since you could rig it to run remotely
[19:05] <TJ-> Gallomimia: I just want to minimise the amount of learning/work/maintaining I'd have to do
[19:05] <TJ-> Gallomimia: right, I was taking a leaf out of the CUPS admin on http://localhost:631/
[19:05] <TJ-> Gallomimia: if you want to talk about it more /join #ubuntu-discuss
[19:05] <Gallomimia> i would hope that it uses keys
[19:26] <kinghat> does ubuntu have a native dark mode?
[19:26] <lotuspsychje> kinghat: i use adwaita dark theme on gnome
[19:26] <kinghat> ya i was using that on KDE as well. is there a native one?
[19:27] <kinghat> im testing out ubuntu 19 and its pretty smooth
[19:27] <kinghat> might switch over
[19:27] <lotuspsychje> kinghat: adwaita dark is native
[19:27] <kinghat> ?
[19:27] <lotuspsychje> kinghat: install gnome-tweak-tool so you can switch themes easy
[19:28] <lotuspsychje> kinghat: for dark themes, there's adwaita dark and high contrast
[19:29] <kinghat> that doesnt sound very native. 😛
[19:29] <lotuspsychje> kinghat: with native i mean, the theme doesnt need to be installed, its there in the list
[19:30] <lotuspsychje> kinghat: firefox has also a dark read mode in settings
[19:30] <kinghat> im talking about the system ui being dark
[19:31] <lotuspsychje> yes
[19:36] <kinghat> install gnome-tweaks or tweak-tool?
[19:36] <kinghat> nvm you already said that
[19:36] <kinghat> sorry
[19:37] <kinghat> i thought gnome used yaru?
[19:37] <kinghat> or switched to it?
[19:38] <lotuspsychje> kinghat: im on 18.04 here, check in gnome-tweak-tool wich theme is default for your release
[19:39] <lotuspsychje> kinghat: on 18.04 its adwaita
[19:39] <kinghat> looks like it on 19 as well
[19:40] <lotuspsychje> kinghat: the icons for 19.04 are changed
[19:40] <M_aD> 19.04 uses the new theme afaik
[19:40] <kinghat> i have 3 monitors and i set my primary to the middle one but the login screen is still showing up on a different monitor than primary.
[19:40] <kinghat> new theme as in adwaita?
[19:41] <M_aD> Yaru iirc
[19:42] <M_aD> they said they would switch, i know it's a dark theme so i guessed it was that

[19:48] <b1ack0p> hi
[19:49] <b1ack0p> i am having error about ubuntu livepatch
[19:49] <b1ack0p> Canonical Livepatch has experienced an internal error. Please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Livepatch#CommonIssues for further information.
[19:49] <b1ack0p> everytime i login to ubuntu
[19:49] <b1ack0p> how can i fix this problem?
[19:50] <kinghat>  M_aD so they are getting rid of yaru and switching to adwaita?
[19:51] <M_aD> no
[19:51] <TJ-> b1ack0p: you'd have to ask Canonical support for that; they control it, we have little insight into it
[19:51] <M_aD> kinghat:  just wanted to point out that Ubuntu switched to Yaru in 19.04
[19:52] <M_aD> but that you can try the new Adwaita theme
[19:52] <kinghat> thats what i thought. just wondering why adwaita is listed as default?
[19:53] <kinghat> or is it just default for gnome but not gnome on ubuntu?
[19:54] <M_aD> dunno, could be
[19:54] <kinghat> from article: "Adwaita is the default theme of the GNOME Shell desktop."
[19:57] <Snoober> all teh cool kids user Pop!_OS anyways :P
[19:59] <jeremy31> Snoober: Can Pop exist without Ubuntu?
[20:00] <Snoober> no lol
[20:00] <Snoober> i'ts basically ubuntu
[20:00] <Snoober> but you guys were talking about icon themes so I brought it up
[20:04] <NetTerminalGene> all cool people use debian
[20:05] <wondows> on macOS I can press Command+backspace to delete everything on the left of the cursor in any text editor. Is it possible to do that on Ubuntu somehow?
[20:05] <b1ack0p> TJ-: how can i contact canonical?
[20:06] <TJ-> b1ack0p: how and where would depend on what the actual fault is I think -if it is their servers for example
[20:07] <b1ack0p> TJ-: i dont know but everytime i login i am facing same error
[20:07] <b1ack0p> security icon on top bar with "!" symbol
[20:07] <b1ack0p> when i click it is written " Canonical Livepatch has experienced an internal error. Please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Livepatch#CommonIssues for further information.
[20:10] <TJ-> b1ack0p: I don't use it so can't help you there
[20:11] <b1ack0p> ok
[20:19] <jack> question: where the heck is pkg-config??
[20:20] <jcotton> you may need to install it
[20:20] <jack> build-essential?
[20:20] <jcotton> probably just pkg-config
[20:20] <jcotton> build-essential would include it
[20:20] <jcotton> probably
[20:21] <jack> ok, thx
[20:21] <kinghat> hmm tried a few things to get the login screen onto the correct(primary) display but no dice.
[20:22] <Vampier> qq (I hope) I have a touch pad with no buttons - lower left corner and lower right corner are left and right mouse buttons presses - however it comes pretty precise and I mostly hit the 'middle' button which will paste stuff or open a new window. Is there a way to disable the middle button forever (ubuntu 19.04)
[20:22] <Cheaplogic> Hello, Does anyone know if it is possible to join ##Linux while using a Tor connection?
[20:23] <TJ-> Cheaplogic: if I recall no, due to it being abused
[20:23] <jeremy31> Cheaplogic: try /mode ##linux +b
[20:24] <jayjo> I have added a second ip address to my primary interface, I see some conflicting ways to do it here: https://askubuntu.com/questions/313877/how-do-i-add-an-additional-ip-address-to-etc-network-interfaces when I'm using ubuntu 18.04. should I use `up ip addr...`?
[20:25] <Vampier> I already tried it with gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface gtk-enable-primary-paste false / gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.peripherals.touchpad  middle-button-enabled false and xinput set-button-map 12 1 0 3
[20:25] <Cheaplogic> * ##linux: *!*@*tor-sasl* on Sun Jan 13 16:20:16 2019 by sauvin!~sauvin@about/linux/staff/sauvin
[20:25] <Cheaplogic> D:
[20:25] <TJ-> jayjo: is that on a server with no GUI ?
[20:25] <Cheaplogic> Jeremy31: thanks for the help
[20:25] <jayjo> TJ-: yes it is
[20:26] <TJ-> jayjo: usually expected it'll be using systemd-networkd on 18.04, possibly via netplan YAML
[20:26] <Vampier> so this channel is support on how to join ##linux now? :D
[20:26] <jack> got it. pkg-config pulled build-essential ;)
[20:26]  * jack hugs jcotton 
[20:27] <jayjo> ok, I thought the netplan yaml was for additional interfaces. Is it for additional addresses on the same interface as well?
[20:28] <TJ-> jayjo: https://netplan.io/examples#using-multiple-addresses-on-a-single-interface
[20:33] <jayjo> this is what it looks like now: https://bpaste.net/show/188d188daccc is it ok to just add the addresses or will I have to configure the gateway4 like the example on netplan.io?
[20:34] <TJ-> jayjo: it's using DHCP now , so are you wanting to have DHPC *and* a manal address?
[20:34] <TJ-> s/manal/manual/
[20:37] <jayjo> I believe the first address (10.0.10.37) is using DHCP and I can see it on the interface from ifconfig: https://bpaste.net/show/90a32584b23f, but I assigned a secondary address to the interface through the aws console. Would I then just add this static address in the 'adresses' section of the yaml? so one is static one is dhcp?
[20:40] <TJ-> jayjo: I'm not sure if netplan caters for that (or systemd-networkd for that matter).
[20:40] <jayjo> but they could both be static with netplan?
[20:41] <kinghat> found a fix for the login location here: https://askubuntu.com/a/1149872/964345
[20:43] <TJ-> jayjo: not sure if you need this, but the AWS docs suggest you should use a separate NIC for the additional addresses https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/MultipleIP.html#StepTwoConfigOS
[20:46] <jayjo> ok, I can do that if it's the best way. So I've added an additional NIC (an ENI in aws) and allocated an address. They have this netplan yaml for the separate nic configuration: https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/knowledge-center/ec2-ubuntu-secondary-network-interface/ what is the '/20' cidr block on the addresses?
[20:46] <jayjo> otherwise I should be able to test this, wasn't able to figure out how to get it to work on the same ENI
[20:47] <jayjo> on ubuntu 18.04lts
[20:50] <TJ-> jayjo: I don't use AWS so can't really help much on the speficics
[20:59] <kinghat> does chrome continue where you left off if you have an installed PWA running?
[20:59] <kinghat> its not for me, im wondering if someone can check if its the same for them.
[21:00] <kinghat> the PWA has to be installed and running when you close your main chrome browser, leave the PWA open, and open chrome again. for me its not remembering the tabs/session i had.
[21:28] <jayjo> even in this configuration from netplan: https://netplan.io/examples#using-multiple-addresses-with-multiple-gateways should these addresses be these large cidrs? shouldn't it just be the /32?
[21:28] <styles_> I have a 100 GB text file I need to modify, does anyone have any tools that I can open, seek to a very specific line and the modify/fix? On windows EmEditor does the trick
[21:30] <gallomimia> more should handle that. cut? line editors
[21:30] <styles_> So I can sed to the line, but I can't modify it
[21:30] <styles_> I thought about writing a sed to modify the line, but I'm going to have to do this like 100 times and it feels error prone
[21:30] <gallomimia> just that line? should be able to write it back out
[21:31] <gallomimia> sounds like something you'll want to write a script for
[21:31] <wondows> 100 gb text file :o
[21:31] <gallomimia> are all the modifications different?
[21:31] <styles_> It's a CSV file. I've been catting the file through csvtool to validate it... and once it detects a failed line, I want to just go to that line in an editor, look through it and see whats wrong
[21:31] <styles_> yeah
[21:31] <styles_> 99% of the time there's a missing " somewhere
[21:31] <gallomimia> uh..... grep
[21:31] <styles_> yeah grep will give me the line out, but how do I modify or update that s pecific line haha
[21:32] <styles_> sed #p works great, but yeah that only lets me find the line to figure out the error, not update it
[21:32] <TJ-> styles_: "sed -i '5235 s/changethis/tothis/' path/to/file
[21:33] <gallomimia> certain i've seen a script for this in the past
[21:33] <gallomimia> you might even google for a script that does exactly what you want
[21:34] <TJ-> styles_: that assumes you know the line number is 5235, presumably using "grep -n changethis path/to/file"
[21:34] <styles_> sed -sed -i 1551113 s/,",/,"",/ file.csv
[21:34] <styles_> ignore the first sed-
[21:34] <gallomimia> oh dear
[21:34] <styles_> but something like that
[21:34] <gallomimia> changing " to "" is gonna be dangerous
[21:34] <styles_> yep lol
[21:34] <styles_> that's the problem
[21:34] <gallomimia> one mistake and you'll have it triple up
[21:35] <gallomimia> maybe.... can you search for single quotes
[21:35] <gallomimia> like. quote marks that are on their own, not already doubled
[21:35] <gallomimia> yeah. did that before. hope you got a backup
[21:35] <styles_> of course lol
[21:36] <styles_> I have the raw files, a workspace folder where it's all coped to
[21:36] <gallomimia> cool
[21:36] <gallomimia> and maybe a few intermediates with progress made
[21:36] <gallomimia> that's a lot of gigabytes
[21:37] <styles_> 113G in size (1 of 4 files)
[21:38] <gallomimia> so, the changes you want to make are ALL double up the quotes?
[21:38] <styles_> I need to find a way to process the csv file fast and find errors (so I was cating through csvtool) and once a failed line is found, I need to find a way to modify the line w/ a fix, re-test and once all of this is done.. import into postgres
[21:38] <styles_> no, sometimes there's just a chunk of data missing for w/e reason and we just remove the whole line
[21:38] <gallomimia> a bash script is for you
[21:39] <styles_> haha cat the line, test it w/ csvtool if it takes check for a single quote if not, remove line? :P
[21:40] <styles_> Might be easier to just cat it all out to a new file
[21:40] <gallomimia> you've got the part where you identify the line and the error down
[21:41] <gallomimia> grab the line number, execute a subroutine with that as an arg
[21:41] <gallomimia> a different sub for each type of fix
[21:41] <styles_> yeah lol problem is csvtool fails once it finds an error, so w/o a setting we'd restart the process
[21:41] <gallomimia> one sub for remove, one sub for double quote
[21:41] <gallomimia> one for anything else you find....
[21:41] <gallomimia> and restart the tool at the given line number. +1 if it was a fix, +0 if it was a delete
[21:46] <gallomimia> test
[21:57]  * OerHeks watching a test in progress
[21:57] <EriC^^> OerHeks: shhhhh
[21:57] <EriC^^> it's about to get to the good part
[21:57]  * EriC^^ passes OerHeks some popcorn
[22:02] <gallomimia> i didn't disconnect? how odd....
[22:17] <TJ-> styles_: is what you're trying to do is ensure there's " " around all text strings in a string field?
[22:19] <styles_> TJ-, yeah, and sometimes there's just missing data on lines
[22:19] <styles_> It seems like a failed concat of multiple files
[22:19] <styles_> I ultimately would just ignore these lines
[22:24]  * extor is looking at the power settings and much to his amazement he sees no way to "suspend laptop when at 5% battery power". Just "suspend after X minutes of inactivity". 
[22:25] <extor> I just wanted to leave an installation/update running on battery for a couple of hours and let it suspend near the end.
[22:26] <gallomimia> hours??
[22:27] <OerHeks> install dconf-editor, org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power gives some options
[22:28] <OerHeks> percentage is standard 2%
[22:29] <extor> Yes hours because the files for android studio are taking so so long to download over my saturated wifi link
[22:31] <cnnx> I just ran nvidia-xconfig --coolbits=31 and rebooted and since then i dont get my desktop, I've also tried to reset the xorg.conf with nvidia-xconfig
[22:31] <cnnx> what can I try?
[22:31] <cnnx> Ik was trying to get a program to work called tuxclocker for my gpu
[22:31] <cnnx> im in console mode now
[22:34] <extor> No luck but very nice editor OerHeks
[22:36] <OerHeks> changes need logout/login, usually
[22:36] <cnnx> anyone?
[22:36] <cnnx> how can ireset my desktop
[22:36] <Sveta> cnnx, i'd suggest to ask #nvidia, and get more patience (the scale of 12 hours of leaving the chat open)
[22:36] <cnnx> so i get a gui again
[22:37] <cnnx> oh ok
[22:37] <ducky> cnnx, whats your DE?
[22:37] <akik> cnnx: did it write some changes in your home dir? .nvidia*
[22:37] <Sveta> cnnx, i would be curious if you can uninstall nvidia and maybe things start working, but i am not sure this will work
[22:37] <Sveta> thanks akik
[22:37] <cnnx> Sveta: i will try
[22:37] <Ben64> don't uninstall
[22:38] <cnnx> ducky: default DE
[22:38] <cnnx> from 18.04
[22:38] <cnnx> ill try apt remove nvidia then?
[22:38] <Ben64> check the logs first, see what's happening
[22:38] <ducky> oh i thought you were asking only about restarting the desktop. didnt see the whole nvidia deal, sorry
[22:38] <Ben64> then see what changes happened to xorg.conf
[22:38] <OerHeks> are those 'coolbits' written to xorg.conf?
[22:38] <Ben64> fix the problem instead of randomly doing things
[22:38] <cnnx> not anymore
[22:38] <Sveta> cnnx, Ben64 suggests not uninstalling, better follow his/her advice
[22:38] <cnnx> i ran nvidia-xconfig
[22:38] <cnnx> to reset it
[22:38] <cnnx> but still no desktop gui
[22:38] <cnnx> wheni reboot
[22:39] <OerHeks> please stop the enter for  attention seeking, thanks
[22:42] <personnamehere> hey all, I need help with the onscreen keyboard, caribou I think. Essentially, it is awful. Unusable in many situations. I would like to disable it when I am logged in (though I do need it at the login screen). Can anyone help?
[22:43] <coz_> personnamehere, not sure however you could try california
[22:43] <cnnx> thanks guys
[22:43] <coz_> no sorry
[22:43] <cnnx> I re-installed nvidia and im back in the gui
[22:44] <coz_> personnamehere, wrong app
[22:44] <OerHeks> systemsettings > universal access > enable 'Menu' so you can easily turn keyboard of
[22:44] <OerHeks> c/off
[22:47] <personnamehere> OerHeks, unfortunately it does not respect that setting, which is apparently intentional behavior
[22:48] <personnamehere> when you click on a text entry field from a touchscreen the keyboard comes up, regardless of whether that setting is on or off
[22:48] <samthewildone> anyone uses keepassx ?
[22:48] <Sveta> cnnx, nice
[22:48] <OerHeks> personnamehere, oke, then you need to have a keyboard attached, i guess..
[22:49] <personnamehere> what I want to do is use another virtual keyboard app (onboard) OerHeks
[22:50] <personnamehere> unfortunately right now I get both showing up if I turn on onboard
[22:50] <personnamehere> so I really need to disable caribou somehow when I am logged in
[22:52] <OerHeks> there is a gnome extention;  Block Caribou https://askubuntu.com/questions/1102798/ubuntu-18-10-cannot-disable-on-screen-keyboard-on-touch-screen-laptop
[22:53] <OerHeks> the switch only works when an other keyboard device is present.
[22:54] <personnamehere> no OerHeks, it does not work period... I have another keyboard right now and if I use the touchscreen with that setting off caribou still pops up. I will probably give that extension a try, though
[22:55] <personnamehere> I am on 18.04 though, it could be different in 18.10
[22:56] <OerHeks> no, this was the most recent post about disabling caribou, it is an issue since 11.10
[22:56] <OerHeks> it should have the latest apple feature, swipe it to the side
[23:01] <personnamehere> then perhaps what I am experiencing is a bug rather than intended behavior, but I can verify it will not stay disabled
[23:11] <personnamehere> OerHeks, however that extension works. :-)
[23:12] <OerHeks> :-)
[23:12] <OerHeks> have fun!
[23:12] <personnamehere> will do. personnamehere out
[23:14] <mo_feezy> hi, all. I'm having an issue with my fb install on ubuntu 18 anyone available to help?
[23:14] <mo_feezy> menu appears when I click, but doesn't disappear. then each click adds a new menu (old ones not functional)
[23:15] <mo_feezy> only the first selected submenu will work, once I move to a different submenu the whole menu stops responding to clicks, but remains on the screen
[23:15] <mo_feezy> not sure if there's a name for this issue, so I can only describe it
[23:15] <mo_feezy> ubuntu 18.04, nvidia 418.43 driver
[23:16] <Bashing-om> mo_feezy: "fb install" means what ?
[23:16] <mo_feezy> fluxbox, my mistake
[23:17] <akem> I run nearly the same configuration as mo_feezy on 2 machines and i don't have this problem, difference is the nvidia-drivers version, i use 390...
[23:20] <akem> mo_feezy, did you set anything special manually regarding the xorg configuration? or maybe with nvidia-setting or is it all default?
[23:21] <mo_feezy> it was all default for most of the time, but since I haven't been able to get fb to work correctly i've played with a few things (overclocking related) but those settings reset whenever I reboot
[23:22] <TJ-> mo_feezy: have you examined the logs? "journalctl -b -p warning" for example
[23:26] <mo_feezy> TJ-, no, wasn't sure what to look for.
[23:28] <akem> mo_feezy, You installed fluxbox with apt right?
[23:28] <mo_feezy> yeah
[23:28] <akem> Ok.
[23:28] <mirak> hi
[23:28] <mirak> anyone knows well the boot process with efi ?
[23:29] <mirak> with grubx64.efi and such
[23:29] <TJ-> mirak: what is your real question?
[23:30] <Bashing-om> mirak: See TJ-'s tutorial: https://iam.tj/kb/pc/boot/#a_bootloader .
[23:30]  * TJ- grins
[23:31] <TJ-> Bashing-om: yurk, that's on old not-supposed-to-exist link!
[23:32] <TJ-> mirak: see https://iam.tj/prototype/guides/boot/
[23:32] <TJ-> Bashing-om: update your bookmark, I'll stick a 301 redirect on the link you have though
[23:33] <Bashing-om> TJ-: Will do !
[23:33] <gallomimia> holy.... shnikeys
[23:35] <akem> mo_feezy, i would check the nvidia drivers - but if you prefer you can try to boot the live USB which should use Nouveau i think and tryout fluxbox from there - see if you have the same issue.
[23:36] <mo_feezy> might give it a go later tonight
[23:36] <mo_feezy> TJ-, nothing in there that I found related to fluxbox or nvidia
[23:37] <mirak> TJ-, the real question is how to multiboot multiple different ubuntu installations
[23:37] <gallomimia> very nice guide TJ
[23:37] <gallomimia> i like... almost understand.... some of it.
[23:40] <mirak> TJ-, the issue I have is that "/msg NickServ identify
[23:40] <mirak> sorry
[23:40] <gallomimia> yeah don't type the password here
[23:40] <mirak> haha
[23:41] <mirak> it was an old past, my password is already in
[23:42] <mirak> TJ-, the issue I have is that even if I have a "efibootmgr -v" that gives  oot0007* @dingo	HD(2,GPT,de6f5e22-4805-4a1d-9a4e-a7328b3cb901,0xe1800,0x32000)/File(\EFI\@DINGO\SHIMX64.EFI)  then it seems it always endup loading the file in "/boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu/grub.cfg"
[23:42] <TJ-> mirak: multiboot with EFI?
[23:43] <mirak> TJ-, yes, I have LVM, with different ubuntu versions. I want to be able to choose them from uefi
[23:43] <mirak> or from grub,
[23:43] <mirak> but it's really painfull to do
[23:43] <gallomimia> really? happens automagically for me
[23:44] <mirak> gallomimia, what is your setup ?
[23:44] <TJ-> mirak: in theory from the UEFI boot manager is going to be easier *if* you can tell GRUB to use different install paths, which at present is , I think, your problem
[23:44] <gallomimia> raid5 with crypto and lvm inside that
[23:44] <TJ-> mirak: you've multiple installs all writing into /EFI/ubuntu/
[23:44] <gallomimia> i installed 19.04 on a separate drive, and once i got it all running, it gave me boot options for my very old 14.04 install
[23:45] <TJ-> gallomimia: that's from GRUB via its os-prober search though
[23:45] <TJ-> gallomimia: if you, in 14.04, did a update-grub or grub-install it'd over-write the 19.04 GRUB files - this is the kind of problem mirak is facing
[23:45] <gallomimia> yes. it didn't do it until i ran apt-get dist-upgrade whilst it was crypto unlocked.
[23:46] <mirak> TJ-, not if I modify /etc/default/grub  and replace "GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR=`lsb_release -i -s 2> /dev/null || echo Debian`" with something like "GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR=@dingo"
[23:46] <gallomimia> i see
[23:46] <TJ-> GRUB assumes there's only one of it on a drive (only 1 OS controls the boot-loader)
[23:47] <mirak> TJ-, yes basically, so I found what controls the /EFI/$GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR
[23:47] <mirak> but then after it seems always redirect to /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu/grub.cfg  like if it was hardcoded
[23:47] <mirak> in some binary like SHIMX64.EFI
[23:48] <mirak> or  grubx64.efi
[23:49] <mirak> because it doesn't want to take /EFI/$GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR/grub.cfg
[23:49] <TJ-> mirak: yes, there's somewhere else it has to be changed. I hack on GRUB but can't recall where the additional Ubuntu wrappers do it, give me a mo
[23:51] <mirak> TJ-, looks to me it's hardcoded in the binary, or it's in BOOTX64.CSV I don't know
[23:52] <TJ-> mirak: grub-install --bootloader-id=XXXX
[23:53] <mirak> TJ-, this is what I did already
[23:53] <mirak> it would make sense, but it doesn't seems to be enough
[23:53] <mirak> I will try again though
[23:55] <TJ-> mirak: that is set by default to the Distributor ID, from util/grub-install.c:: "if (!bootloader_id && config.grub_distributor)"
[23:58] <TJ-> mirak:  oh hang on! You said shimx64.efi - are you using Secure Boot ?
[23:59] <TJ-> mirak: because for the grub-signed packages the paths will be hard-coded because the core image is pre-built and signed by Canonical
