[00:00] genii Sounds like a solid plan. I'm gonna try the trinity rescue first and if that doesn't fix it, i'm gonna buy a bigger hard drive and try to troubleshoot from there [00:00] genii sarnold thank you both for the help [00:00] good luck sexy1233 :) [00:10] i'm on bionic, i updated to systemd 237-3ubuntu10.25 and it caused a restart of systemd-networkd. is that expected?

I would prefer the top bar to take the color of my windows or to stay transparent [00:22] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/+bug/1839231 reported [00:22] Launchpad bug 1839231 in systemd (Ubuntu) "updating bionic to 237-3ubuntu10.25 restarts systemd-networkd" [Undecided,New] === turbomouse is now known as turbotaco [00:25] thanks slingamn [00:25] <3 [00:25] slingamn: did you happen to notice if it changed interface names or anything similar? [00:26] looks like the name was ens5 before and after [00:26] but it purged all the privacy extensions addresses [00:26] alright; that's for the best, but I'm reaching for anything about *why* it might have done what you saw ;) [00:26] mmm, yeah [00:27] yeah i'm down to provide more information if you think of anything === turbotaco is now known as Crusher [00:28] looks like the /64 didn't change either, since the non-preferred SLAAC address remained the same as well === Crusher is now known as turbotaco === longcat is now known as mouses === ezra is now known as nicekiwi [01:07] how do I get these packages automatically installed? https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/5Nkk4pcW/ [01:08] leonardus: try apt install ./gplates.... [01:09] sarnold https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/vPgmtKvu/ [01:09] is there a way to modify the title of gnome-terminal when the user's sudo session is active? [01:10] leonardus: alright, first one is libgdal20 [01:11] nicekiwi, i think a script to detect that, would be a security risc [01:11] sarnold: ok, just installed that [01:12] @OerHeks yeah it probabily would be [01:12] and as there is a timer on the sudo session, that would be really interesting.. [01:12] leonardus: libglew2.0 and libproj12, try those manuall too [01:13] nicekiwi: Depending on the terminal emulator, some will monitor an environment variable for setting the title of the window. [01:13] E: Unable to locate package libglew2.0 [01:13] E: Unable to locate package libproj12 [01:13] nicekiwi: maybe this? https://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Bash-Prompt-HOWTO/xterm-title-bar-manipulations.html [01:13] !info libglew2.0 [01:13] libglew2.0 (source: glew): OpenGL Extension Wrangler - runtime environment.

[01:15] leonardus: which ubuntu release are you running? [01:15] i dunno [01:15] genii: but somehow libgdal20 installed fine. I'm pretty confused [01:16] yeah, just I need some way of detecting when SUDO session is active and updating the title, then removing the change when the setting expired. SO I dont accidently leave sudo enabled sessions opten [01:16] open* [01:16] leonardus: lsb_release -ds [01:16] tomreyn: 19.04 [01:16] nicekiwi: oh, you mean when your sudo *tickets* are still valid? [01:16] !info libglew2.0 disco [01:16] Package libglew2.0 does not exist in disco [01:16] nicekiwi: it probably doesn't make much difference. if you leave an unpriv shell unattended, it'd be easy for someone to get your sudo password using that [01:16] sarnold: Weird [01:17] info libproj12 disco [01:17] nicekiwi: just lock your screen every time to walk away [01:17] !info libproj12 disco [01:17] Package libproj12 does not exist in disco [01:17] sarnold: im not down with the *tickets* lingo, but.. wait what? someone can get my sudo password from an unprivillaged terminal [01:17] leonardus: you should not mix packages made for one ubuntu version with your (different) ubuntu version [01:17] !? [01:18] leonardus: there are are exceptions where this is possible, but this is for advanced users only. [01:18] gplates-ubuntu-bionic on disco, odd [01:18] leonardus: generally, when you download .deb packages from some website in an attempt to install them you are most likely doing it wrong. [01:19] Hi all, I just uninstalled pihole that was running within a docker instance. As a result, dns is not working on my workstation. I've gone and set dns servers through nmcli and executed /etc/init.d/network-manager restart - but I still can't resolve. Obviously the pihole install has disabled something else. Where can I start? (SSH access only to this box) [01:19] nicekiwi: sure; mkdir ~/bin ; vim ~/bin/sudo # (write three line shell script) ; chmod 755 ~/bin/sudo -- done. they'll have your password next time you use it' [01:19] leonardus: instead, find a PPA whjich is compatible to your ubuntu release (19.04, also called "disco dingo") [01:19] ...or use a snap [01:19] !ppa [01:19] A Personal Package Archive (PPA) can provide alternate software not normally available in the offical Ubuntu repositories - Looking for a PPA? See https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas - WARNING: PPAs are unsupported third-party packages, and you use them at your own risk. See also !addppa and !ppa-purge [01:19] leonardus: ^ [01:20] 0_o; only if they have access to the system again or have an account on the system [01:20] !snap | leonardus [01:20] leonardus: Snaps are containerised software packages similar to flatpaks or appimage. For more info, see https://snapcraft.io [01:20] I don't think there are any gplates PPAs or snaps [01:21] leonardus: so you know there are no gplates PPAs nor snaps, but you do not know your ubuntu release? that's hard to believe. [01:21] gplates, is that just GIS software? [01:21] I googled "g plates ppa" [01:21] nicekiwi: it's better to have best practice of closing the sudo session as soon as you are done with it, rather than relying on a program to alert you. That program may fail, or in this case, a later update could disable or remove the feature you were using to check for the session. Thus possiblying giving you the false belief you're not in a sudo session [01:22] ok cool :) [01:24] leonardus: i agree, there don't seem to be any gplates deb's which are compatible to ubuntu 19.04, nor a snap. [01:24] https://www.gplates.org/download.html Instructions on how to compile GPlates from source may be found in the GPlates source-code releases, in the files: DEPS.Linux and BUILD.Linux [01:25] will I be able to build it without those dependencies [01:25] The pyGPlates binaries currently require Python 2.7, however the pyGPlates source code now works with Python 3 [01:25] so that sounds good [01:25] nicekiwi: personally, I launch the application I need with sudo, such that when the application closes, the sudo session ends as well. This method is changing though, as there are now different ways to access sudo priveleges. I.e. Gnome use the admin:// scheme in front of the file name which triggers a sudo prompt [01:25] if you read the instructions, maybe.. or run a VM with 18.04 [01:27] when you are successfull, you might want to put this in a snap. interactive visualisation of plate-tectonics is pretty amazing [01:27] leonardus: the gplates package you have downloaded is for ubuntu 18.04 LTS "bionic beaver", it is not compatible to ubuntu 19.04 "disco dingo". as OerHeks hinted you can build gplates from source code instead, or use the existing 'bionic' package in a virtual server or container. [01:29] leonardus: for now i recomend you uninstall the package using sudo apt purge gplates [01:29] E: Unable to locate package gplates [01:30] it is not build yet [01:32] so probably the package didn't install yet, due to dependency issues. [01:32] then there's nothing to do (other than uninstalling other packages you manually installed while trying to make gplates install) [01:36] Dependency Hell is hard to reach Purgatory from [01:43] I am using ubuntu 18.04 and I am trying to install the most recent build of virtualbox 6 for bionic. I added the virtual box downloads for bionic to my sources.list file, did an upgrade, installed virtualbox-6, but guest additions gives me problems: https://bpaste.net/show/rgeZ [01:43] the upgrade also gave warning messages [01:43] Does anyone know how to fix this? [01:43] RandomGuyOnIrc: that sounds like a question for the virtualbox folks, not #ubuntu [01:43] RandomGuyOnIrc: as it's not from ubuntu [01:44] perchance is there a way to update xserver-xorg-core to the most recent version? [01:44] can I configure a handler for file:// the uri scheme [01:44] I asked in virtualbox, they are all asleep now [01:44] or quiet [01:44] don't want chrome to view the whole filesystem at will sometimes [01:45] nacc, nevermind, they just woke up [01:46] RandomGuyOnIrc, could be an old module still in memory from the old version [01:47] RandomGuyOnIrc: You might want to append deb [arch=amd64] before the URL in whatever repo file virtualbox added into the /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ directory [01:47] genii: thanks [01:47] btw support for i386 has been dropped [01:48] The Chrome repo has a similar issue [01:48] x86-32 rip ;P [01:49] Hi all, I just uninstalled pihole that was running within a docker instance. As a result, dns is not working on my workstation. I've gone and set dns servers through nmcli and executed /etc/init.d/network-manager restart - but I still can't resolve. Obviously the pihole install has disabled something else. Where can I start? (SSH access only to this box) [01:49] genii: that cleaned up the first warning [01:49] thanks [01:49] https://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian/dists/bionic/ 64 bit only .. [01:50] nacc: the package RandomGuyOnIrc tried to install, virtualbox-guest-x11, is available in ubuntu's repository, so i think that's the one RandomGuyOnIrc tried to install. not a #vbox topic then [01:51] only 19.04 / DIsco gives i386.. https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/virtualbox/6.0.6-dfsg-1 [01:51] grinn [01:52] (i don't think it's compatible to virtualbox 6, though, so IMO the right thing to do is to just install the guest additions from the guest mountable ISO virtualbox provides. which is what i told RandomGuyOnIrc in #vbox) === [b0b] is now known as b0b [02:11] Hi ! [02:11] greetings Kendos-Kenlen, any ubuntu issues? [02:12] tomreyn unfortunately, yes :( [02:12] sorry to hear this. please discuss the !details [02:13] !details [02:13] Please elaborate; your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information; for example, we might need errors, steps, relevant configuration files, Ubuntu version, and hardware information. Use a !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel. [02:13] I am confronted to a weird issue: I am building a custom ISO using Cubic now and when I try to upgrade the system, I have errors from whoopsie and gdm3 that cannot find their respective groups. The groups indeed exists in /etc/group, I can add myself to these groups (using addgroup), but the postinstall scripts seems not to be able to find them. [02:13] Any i3 users here? When I open some programs the text in them looks huge and this wasn't happening when using ubuntu/gnome desktop. Any ideas? [02:15] pennTeller what program are they? Are they by chance Qt or GTK programs? [02:16] Kendos-Kenlen, one of them is blender, the other one is HexChat (the irc client I am using). Also, using Nautilus I noticed my folders looked bigger than on Ubuntu as well. [02:17] Kendos-Kenlen, Firefox for example looks fine. [02:18] pennTeller they are all GTK programs if I am right. do you have a .gtk* folder in your home? [02:19] Kendos-Kenlen: sorry, i have to sleep now, hope you can get some help from soemone else. [02:19] tomreyn no problem, good night :) [02:19] Kendos-Kenlen, no .gtk* in my home dir [02:19] Kendos-Kenlen: thanks, just some food for thought here: so you're certain these groups exist on the very system these commands run on and at the very time they run? personally i'd prefer to use adduser to add an existing user to a group (or multiple groups). [02:20] * tomreyn zzz === ricks_ is now known as wonttalk [02:23] tomreyn I am sure yes. And actually, it's the postinstall script of whoopsie and gdm that try these commands but fail, not mine. [02:23] brb need to reboot [03:03] Seems like an issue with group manipulation: despite whoopsie being listed in /etc/group, tools such as groupmod or groupdel does not work. I tried to create a zorb group with groupadd, and then change its gid to 117 (whoopsie previous gid) but groupmod tells me the zorb group I just created does not exists... [03:04] <[rg]> so tools like muon and aptitude have categories for packages, are those available via apt/dpkg? [03:04] rg same sources, yes === Videonauth_ is now known as Videonauth [03:32] would anyone care to speculate why my run of brasero on this ubuntu 19.04 laptop is basically non functional? clicking burn enters a state of non function, infinite wait. two tries on a disk and not marking the surface [03:33] why my terminal always lost the commands history https://dpaste.de/OUEa ? [03:33] suggests non-writable .bash_history [03:34] likely given you have some kind of chroot going on [03:36] Gallomimia, no idea; but I've had a few burners no longer operate, some caused errors others just did nothing (except replacing drive fixed issue) [03:38] this one seems to recognize a blank disk but after that.... [03:39] it is rather old... unsure [03:39] a restart of it will disconnect me. [03:40] i can't advise; if you have a drop-in-replacement drive try it (the only thing that proved what I was describing) [03:41] if i had any alternatives, i'd be using that [03:57] guiverc2, odd. after a reboot, using the built in dvd/cd creator allows me to make a data disc. not desired as i need an audio CD for a trip tomorrow. perhaps the brasero will work post-reboot [04:00] it [drive] getting old & tired, but I don't think a good kick would help :( no ideas sorry [04:02] i'm of the opinion some drivers were installed but never loaded until i did a reboot [04:05] no idea - but you've had progress so :) [04:15] it finished. now to try with brasero again [04:18] still unsure as to what changed. it could be the what-for i gave the lens and inner workings i gave it with a Q-tip and isopropanol [04:19] it goes. phew. thought i was going to be doomed to radio and scratched oldies thru a mountain drive all day [04:30] jeeze. and all the jewel cases are cracked so the cover falls off at the hinge. the 90s called.... they want their problems back. [04:32] carefull with writing something on it .. [06:20] Most of the themes at gnome-look.org are no longer usable with recent releases of Ubuntu, right? [06:20] e.g. Ubuntu 18.04 [06:21] because it's on GNOME 3, whereas those themes are for GNOME 2 or GTK 2? [06:29] k_sze, odd question, gnome-look gives a gtk3 themes section [06:31] OerHeks, ah. [06:31] bummers, there's no star trek inspired theme for gtk3 there. [06:31] I want LCARS, heh [06:36] Hmm, what does "plinged" mean on that site? [06:39] k_sze: wich site? [06:40] oh i see it ontop [06:40] k_sze: seems like its some kind of rating, high plings [06:46] hi all! Yesterday I left work where I had 2 monitors attached and working. I come back, connect the monitors to my laptop and nothing is responding. Running xrandr -q shows less than regular output, and my onboard screen has changed names as well (eDP-1 to eDP-1-1). What could have caused such a change? Running ubuntu 18.04, with nvidia drivers (blacklisted nouveau) [06:47] caroga: wich chipset & driver loaded please? [06:47] Hi lotuspsychje! loaded driver is nvidia, checked with prime-select query [06:48] caroga: can you pastebin plz: sudo lshw -C video && nvidia-smi [06:50] lotuspsychje: http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/xX56JT4f4r/ and http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/8X4jFzG5dT/ [06:51] caroga: ah, 390 is too low for a gtx 1060, can you check: ubuntu-drivers list please? see if other driver versions are available [06:51] sure, hold on [06:51] I see 390 and 430 [06:52] caroga: ok try to install the 430, you can also switch it from software&sources/tab additional drivers [06:52] caroga: then reboot after switch [06:52] lotuspsychje: what would the preffered way be? Purge nvidia drivers, and install afterwards or just upgrade from gui ? [06:53] caroga: the users choice, from apt you can see the progress better [06:53] check. will update. [06:56] hey guys [06:56] my server rebooted yesterday evening. Any tips where to look for the issue? [06:56] or to see if it was a hardware error [06:56] heller_: come join to #ubuntu-server please [06:56] okay [06:56] lotuspsychje: gonna restart now, hopefully see you in a bit xD [07:03] lotuspsychje: thank you! It worked ! [07:04] caroga: welcome mate [07:04] I think I might have updated my system. Installing the newest driver fixed my issues. [07:04] caroga: we reccomend later drivers for the GTX models [07:05] caroga: in some cases the ubuntu graphics ppa is needed, but your card seemed to have a later driver suggested already [07:06] lotuspsychje: im just super happy I got three screens working again, it was such a battle last time to figure out what to do. Eventually blacklisting nouveau and switching between intel and nvidia seemed to be my resolve. Anyway, once again thank you for your help, much appreciated. [07:07] np [07:07] Does anyone here use workspace feature? [07:10] manitaggarwal, ask your real question to find out? [07:23] Trying to find out use cases while coding in java for workspace [07:23] @OerHeks [07:28] hi [07:32] manitaggarwal, that is a specific task, i have no clue about that, maybe someone else reading this [07:45] How do you mention me in your text? [07:47] where can i find the package list for ubuntu 14.04 [07:47] cant find it here https://packages.ubuntu.com/ or http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/trusty/ but maby its me? [07:48] ws2k3: are you using ESM ? [07:48] lotuspsychje: what does that has to do with it? [07:48] ws2k3: 14.04 is end of life [07:48] lotuspsychje: i know. what has that to do with anything? [07:48] ws2k3: = its not supported anymore [07:49] lotuspsychje: i know. so? [07:49] does the fact its eol caused the package list to disspear or? [07:50] manitaggarwal: we write your name, and it will be mentioned. Do you have your Ubuntu question? [07:51] EoflaOE, thanks... Not right now. [07:51] manitaggarwal: Welcome. [07:52] lotuspsychje: if a ubuntu release is eol is not does not make a difference to the package list. [07:53] ws2k3: be aware that 14.04 is not supported in this channel. [07:53] Also, if you check packages.ubuntu.com you will see that 14.04 is not available in the distributions list to search through. [07:53] ws2k3, tone down, it is EOL, but the lists are there https://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty-updates/allpackages -- https://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty-backports/allpackages --https://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/allpackages [07:53] ws2k3: The packages for that eol version will be moved to old-releases.ubuntu.com. We recommend upgrading to latest version if possible, as eol versions are not supported [07:54] caroga: see previous anser. yeah i just found it https://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty-backports/allpackages [07:54] i am not sure why we answer, but oke [07:55] ws2k3: good luck. [07:55] Hello OerHeks [07:55] lotuspsychje: caroga OerHeks EoflaOE i realy do get ur point. and ofcrouse i will upgrade asap. but i just Hate when people Keep going on and on that its eol. yes i know its eol. that doesnt magicly cause it to stop working. [07:56] ws2k3: eol versions still boot, just no support and no security updates. [07:56] all you need is the EOL upgrade factoid [07:56] !eolupgrade [07:56] End-Of-Life is when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOL for more info. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades [07:56] but with these huge changes, systemd and such, i would do a fresh install [08:00] OerHeks: you dont think im already working on that? secondly maby we use software that we just just pop onto newer versions of ubuntu. like the need for php 5.5 so keep pointing out the obvious is realy pointless. [08:00] lolz, that machine should stay of the internet then [08:01] ubuntu-abuse [08:02] its in production. servied 200 tb publicly connected to the internet. [08:02] linux does not magicly get hacked once it eol. the risk just increases [08:12] ws2k3: don't be so toxic, people in here are giving advice and don't know/understand your specifics. [08:21] what would be the smartest way to purge all packets from a 3.rd party repo when you forgot exactly what is installed from that repo ? [08:27] Mathisen: look into ppa-purge [08:28] Mathisen: You can remove all packages from a specified repo using https://askubuntu.com/questions/37531/how-do-i-remove-all-packages-from-a-certain-repository [08:28] thanks [08:48] what do I need to read cbr files? === mIk3_09 is now known as mIk3_08 [08:50] any recommendation besides mcomix?

[09:47] i usually do sudo systemctl start [09:47] sudo systemctl start solr [09:47] become root, then run it [09:48] and run the command i told you not systemctl whatever [09:48] * tarzeau is 1999, no sudo, no systemctl [09:49] https://pastebin.com/a4yDLpDw [09:50] codecutter: having copy pasted the output, didn't you read it? [09:50] well i was hioping you will help me fix the prob [09:50] hopping* [09:50] obviously some code in /etc/default/solr.in.sh is so retarded it thinks 11.0.4+11 is older than 1.8, just remove that code [09:51] i don't have that file. and i removed all adobe flash, sun/oracle java. [09:51] maybe setting JAVA_HOME helps, maybe patching the file, no idea really [09:51] java -version [09:51] openjdk version "11.0.4" 2019-07-16 [09:51] OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 11.0.4+11-post-Ubuntu-1ubuntu218.04.3) [09:51] OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 11.0.4+11-post-Ubuntu-1ubuntu218.04.3, mixed mode, sharing) [09:53] where is JAVA_HOME? [09:53] that probably needs to be updated [09:54] is it set to anything? [09:55] thats what i'm trying to figure out [09:55] well grep JAVA_HOME inwhateverfile [09:56] probably not, you'll only need JAVA_HOME if you don't want to use the system one, or a 2nd one not the default [09:56] echo $JAVA_HOME [09:56] blank line [09:56] that's normal [09:57] what does that mean? its not set? [09:57] is that apache solr stuff from a package or you installed it somehow? [09:58] codecutter: it's not needed be set [09:58] i installed quote some time ago [09:58] yes [09:58] quite* [09:58] if you read the latest pastebin carefull it complains not about JAVA_HOME it complains it wants Java 1.8 [09:58] which is 8 really. retarded sun solaris naming [09:59] right, 'java -v' gives me openjdk version "11.0.4" 2019-07-16 [09:59] so i need to update something [09:59] something being some file [09:59] https://stackoverflow.com/questions/54350573/does-solr-7-x-have-support-for-java-11 [10:00] https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-12809 [10:00] just install java 8 [10:00] and be done with it [10:00] reminds me of the java meme, one doesn't just run the latest java version, heh [10:00] :) [10:01] or this one "i told him i can't open the jar", he said "download and install java" [10:01] ok, do do apt-get?

During Ubuntu installation we have to answer a lot of question: choose language, user, make partition, etc. Is it possible to bypass this, for example, by passing file with this info to installer? Packer somehow does it. [10:03] codecutter: apt-get install openjdk-8-jdk ? [10:03] will that override java 11 that is currently installed? [10:04] !preseed [10:04] codecutter: i'd search with dpkg -l |grep jre |grep 11 # and try jdk instead of jre [10:04] codecutter: no, that's why you'll remove all ove java 11 :) [10:04] yankovic, https://wiki.debian.org/AutomatedInstallation [10:04] apt-get installed java? [10:04] codecutter: or you use the cumbersome alternatives system, but believe me easier just remove 11 [10:04] uninstall* [10:04] yankovic, i trust most of this will work for ubuntu, and i bet there's such a page for ubuntu too [10:05] ok i'll remove it first [10:05] apt-get uninstalled java? [10:05] https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/installation-guide/example-preseed.txt [10:05] codecutter: no, run dpkg -l |grep jre |grep 11 and run dpkg -l |grep jdk |grep 11 [10:05] codecutter: remove all that packages, and install openjdk-8-jdk [10:06] yankovic, ^ what OerHeks said [10:07] Habbie: thanks [10:07] OerHeks: thanks [10:12] it's not that cumbersome to use alternatives ... [10:12] tarzeau how do i check the solr version? [10:12] sudo update-java-alternatives --set java-1.8.0-openjdk-amd64 [10:13] currently installed [10:13] geirha: thanks [10:13] that looks much simpler [10:14] and update-java-alternatives --list to list the ones you can choose from [10:14] codecutter: did you m ake a solr debian package or just install it somehow? [10:14] its been awhile since i installed it [10:15] Started Solr server on port 8983 (pid=2836). Happy searching! [10:15] :) [10:15] yay! === rax-Y is now known as rax- [10:24] hi fellow ubutians [10:25] I had ubuntu installed and then installed windows on another partition and it was booting into windows by default, now I want to boot back to ubuntu from default, is there an easy way I can do this change without messing anything up? [10:25] is it cause the master board record now points to windows? [10:25] s/board/boot [10:26] THat is why we say install windows first, but you can restore grub again [10:26] !grub [10:26] GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 [10:27] cnnx: it depends if you were using uefi or not [10:27] oh, that too .. [10:27] cnnx: which laptop model is it? some let you choose which efi entry to boot when the pc starts if you press the right key in case you're using uefi [10:29] is it worth it to buy a new laptop with ubuntu preintalled vs installing it if I know hardware is compatible? [10:29] if you trust the installation, and it's not extra cost [10:29] what version do they pre-install? nothing outdated? [10:30] tarzeau: yeah but I guess... good question! My question is: is there a chance I'll get better performance? [10:30] no [10:30] what hw you plan to buy? with what budget? [10:32] geirha: > Could not find tools.jar. Please check that /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64 contains a valid JDK installation [10:34] codecutter: you don have /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/lib/tools.jar ? [10:34] codecutter: install openjdk-8-jdk-headless [10:35] though openjdk-8-jdk already depends on that package [10:35] lib folder is missing from /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/ [10:36] geirha what do you mean? [10:36] are you sure you installed the openjdk-8-jdk package? [10:36] To switch i did: sudo update-java-alternatives --set java-1.8.0-openjdk-amd64 [10:37] nothing more [10:37] yes, but that only works if you actually have that java version installed [10:37] then it was already installed [10:37] update-java-alternatives only switches between installed java versions [10:37] before update it was all workiing [10:38] updated ubuntu [10:38] oh, there are 2 versions [10:39] java-1.8.0-openjdk-amd64/ [10:39] java-8-openjdk-amd64/ [10:40] they both missing lib folder [10:40] hmm [10:41] lol [10:41] codecutter: update-java-alternatives --list [10:42] perhaps in your attempt to remove java 11 you also removed java 8 and haven't installed it java 8 again after that? [10:42] i did not remove it [10:43] thankfully you came in kjust in time [10:43] just* [10:43] aha, peraps you only have the jre installed then..? [10:43] java-1.11.0-openjdk-amd64 1111 /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.11.0-openjdk-amd64 [10:43] java-1.8.0-openjdk-amd64 1081 /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0-openjdk-amd64 [10:44] if so, ignore the warnings from update-java-alternatives. It just tries to symlink all java stuff [10:46] dpkg -l openjdk-8-\* [10:47] https://pastebin.com/7dSgqxK8 [10:48] EriC^^: I think its using uefi, I'm ssh'ed into the machine now remotely, how can I check? [10:48] codecutter: Right, so that's why. You only have the jre (which is all you need when all you want to do is run a java program). [10:49] cnnx, you would know, during install ubuntu and windows [10:49] OerHeks: Al lI know is to get into ubuntu now I press F12 from the boot bios stage and choose UBUNTU instead of WINDOWS [10:49] is that EUFI? [10:49] codecutter: update-java-alternatives is a bit dumb in that it doesn't bother to check if you installed jre or jdk, it naively tries to symlink all of the java commands. [10:50] codecutter: so you're good. java -version should say 1.8.0 now [10:51] cnnx: yeah that's uefi [10:51] cnnx: type "sudo efibootmgr -v | nc termbin.com 9999" [10:51] cnnx, the disk will have GPT and there is a small UEFI partition at the beginning of the disk [10:51] and again, you would know how you started the installer, uefi mode or legacy [10:52] EriC^^: https://termbin.com/5vu1 [10:53] geirha did i miss anything? i'm still getting Could not find tools.jar. Please check that /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64 contains a valid JDK installation. [10:54] codecutter: that's because you haven't installed jdk, so it'll only manage to symlink the jre stuff; printing useless warnings about all the jdk stuff [10:54] EriC^^: so I just need to install grub2? [10:54] EriC^^: which will install a default boot loader for ubuntu to load first? [10:54] cnnx: yeah "sudo grub-install" should fix it [10:55] EriC^^: thats all? cause I'm remotely connected, so if i REBOOT and doesnt come back Im not physically there [10:55] and isnt it grub2-install? [10:55] geirha well, ubuntu update must have made some changes. [10:55] cnnx: if you want to confirm running 'efibootmgr -v' again should list ubuntu first in boot order 000.... [10:55] codecutter: in other words, just ignore the message about tools.jar [10:55] cnnx: same thing [10:56] EriC^^: I run efibootmgr -v before installing grub? [10:56]
