Regor | how can i make thunar show option of " recent opened folders......" ? | 06:43 |
brainwash | Regor: try this https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/418056 | 09:51 |
Regor | thanks | 09:52 |
Regor | it gives recent opened files not recent opened folders | 11:01 |
Regor | brainwash: | 11:01 |
Regor | though its useful enough | 11:01 |
brainwash | Regor: not sure if having that option would make much sense. if you browse through different folders, the list would get spammed with new entries. | 11:08 |
Regor | actually it makes sense if it gives last 5-6 folders .. it saves time a lot.. | 11:10 |
brainwash | feel free to open a new bug report for this | 11:13 |
Regor | if i open mousepad/vlc ..... i see recent opened files ...so i can access directly .. its no spamming at all .. | 11:13 |
Regor | ys. bug report is good idea | 11:14 |
Gusj | Hi there, I am unable to get connected with my wired lan connection, When I do 'lshw -C network' the ethernet card shows as DISABLED, but I have it enabled through gui, I am on Xubuntu 19.010 | 13:12 |
Gusj | I also have restarted network-manager several times to same result.. | 13:13 |
diogenes_ | Gusj, have you ever been able to connect through ethernet on linux before? | 13:14 |
Gusj | diogenes_: Nope this would be the 1st time, I wanted to enable wake up on lan, I have also added to the /etc/network/interfaces, the following lines with the logical name of my ethernet card: 'auto enp2s0 , iface enp2s0 inet dhcp' | 13:16 |
diogenes_ | Gusj, i didn't get that. you're saying you have never tried ethernet+linux on this machine? | 13:17 |
Gusj | diogenes_: That is correct, I have onyl connected using wifi, since I wanted to use wake on lan, I connected the lan cable from router and have not been able to get online | 13:18 |
diogenes_ | Gusj, then how can we make sure the ethernet card is not broken? It might be the card itself. | 13:19 |
Gusj | diogenes_: I have no idea how we can test that on Xubuntu, it shows up in lshw -C network correctly | 13:22 |
sublevel | Can you check the cable with another machine? | 13:22 |
diogenes_ | Gusj, it doesn't say anything if it shows, it might still be broken. | 13:22 |
Gusj | diogenes_: in lshw -C network, it said disabled, and I did 'sudo ifconfig enp2s0 up' and now it does not say disabled | 13:23 |
Gusj | diogenes_: But why would that be the case?? as a first option?? that ssumption? | 13:23 |
diogenes_ | Gusj, because i personally had such situation when the network card was detected, everything seemed right but it still couldn't connect because it was broken. | 13:24 |
Gusj | diogenes_: With 19.10 as opposed to 18.04 even the wifi works intermittenly sometimes boots yes, sometimes no, even if wifi is on, the ssid list is not populated, | 13:25 |
diogenes_ | Gusj, wireless module has nothing to do with the ethernet card, they work independently. | 13:26 |
Gusj | diogenes_: So there is no other test I can check to get lan connection working? | 13:26 |
Gusj | diogenes_: yes but both under the network-manager | 13:27 |
diogenes_ | Gusj, sublevel already suggested you something. | 13:27 |
Gusj | diogenes_: yes I tried that to no effect :( | 13:27 |
diogenes_ | Gusj, then you could try on windows. | 13:29 |
Gusj | diogenes_: install windows to test the ethernet card? | 13:29 |
diogenes_ | Gusj, you can install windows on a usb pendrive and boot it from there. | 13:29 |
Gusj | diogenes_: Ahh i c.. just for information, when I scan my whole network from my macbook, I can see the ethernet card on xubuntu, its mac address and its ip | 13:31 |
Gusj | diogenes_: isnt that an indication that the card is working? | 13:31 |
diogenes_ | Gusj, not necessarily, could you pastebin: nmcli device | 13:33 |
Gusj | diogenes_: Copied it here, cant connect to do pastebin, the 3 lines, 'enp2s0 ethernet unmanaged' 'lo loopback unmanaged' wlp1s0 wifi unmanaged' | 13:35 |
Gusj | diogenes_: the connection column in all lines is empty, has '--' | 13:35 |
diogenes_ | try: nmcli device connect enp2s0 | 13:36 |
Gusj | diogenes_: thank you, it says "Error: Failed to add/activate new connection: Connection 'enp2s0' is not avaliable on device enp2s0 because device is strictly unmanaged" | 13:38 |
diogenes_ | Gusj, yeah now you see. | 13:40 |
Gusj | diogenes_: I am sorry, I see what exactly? | 13:42 |
diogenes_ | Gusj, that ethernet card looks broken, unresponsive. | 13:42 |
Gusj | diogenes_: Ahhh I c... fk :( | 13:44 |
Gusj | diogenes_: Is there another test that we could try | 13:47 |
diogenes_ | Gusj, how old is the PC? | 13:48 |
Gusj | diogenes_: 2014 | 13:48 |
diogenes_ | what model? | 13:48 |
Gusj | diogenes_: Toshiba Satellite C55-A5105 | 13:49 |
diogenes_ | another way to try is to run a live session of ubuntu 16.04 and see if it makes any difference. | 13:49 |
Gusj | diogenes_: Ahh ok ok will try that.. | 13:51 |
Gusj | diogenes_: Thank you, and to force the wifi to populate the ssids, what could I try? It is kind of frekish,. if I reboot it works, its as if something is stopping the wifi from doing its job sometimes... | 13:52 |
diogenes_ | Gusj, then you can: sudo systemctl restart NetworkManager | 13:53 |
Gusj | diogenes_: that is the thing, when I have booted to no wifi, I have tried that, and I can see it restarting, (icon near clock) but it does not do anything.. then I reboot and it connects by itself.. | 13:54 |
diogenes_ | another ways is to: nmcli device disconnect wlp1s0 && sleep 3; nmcli device connect wlp1s0 | 13:55 |
Gusj | diogenes_: THANK YOU, THE OUTPUT IS: "Error: Device 'wlp1s0' (/org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Devices/3) disconnecting failed: this device is not active Error: not all devices disconnected" | 14:00 |
diogenes_ | ok was the wifi on and connected? | 14:00 |
Gusj | diogenes_: Yes wifi is on, but not connected, I don't see any networks, evenb if wifi is on, this is what happens | 14:02 |
diogenes_ | Gusj, maybe your pc just needs to be serviced, it might get overheated and the devices get disconnected or work very unstable, check the temperature with: sensors | 14:04 |
Gusj | diogenes_: Temperatures seem normal, +51.0C | 14:06 |
diogenes_ | Gusj, ok then with live ubuntu 16.04 we gonna see if wifi works better there. | 14:07 |
Gusj | diogenes_: Looking for a solution, I added, these lines to the /etc/network/interfaces file, the whole file has these lines i use comma here to signify line break: "auto lo, iface lo inet loopback, auto enp2s0, iface enp2s0 inet dhcp, auto wlp1s0, iface wlp1s0 inet dhcp" is this correct? | 14:09 |
Gusj | diogenes_: So localhost, wifi, and ethernet | 14:09 |
diogenes_ | Gusj, who told you to do tht? | 14:09 |
Gusj | diogenes_: at the default, the file only had "auto lo, iface lo inet loopback" so I added the other lines after researching online | 14:10 |
diogenes_ | Gusj, omg, revert all the changes you have done and leave it the way it was by default. | 14:11 |
Gusj | diogenes_: Ok I just commented them out | 14:11 |
diogenes_ | Gusj, better comment everything out and reboot. | 14:11 |
Gusj | diogenes_: ok, doing that right now, commented everything out even the 'lo' that was there before | 14:12 |
Gusj | diogenes_: Diogenes I see somehitng different on the lan connection now... when I do 'nmcli connection show' it shows up as wired connection, type ethernet, device enp2s0 and the whole line is GREEN | 14:20 |
Gusj | diogenes_: When I ping the ip from my macbook it now works.. but when I try to ping from the xubuntu machine to xubuntu.org nothing happens | 14:20 |
diogenes_ | Gusj, cat /etc/resolv.conf | 14:21 |
diogenes_ | what do you get? | 14:21 |
Gusj | diogenes_: but on the network manager menu (nex tto clock) now i see wired connection, not greyed out and I can click on it | 14:21 |
Gusj | diogenes_: I get 2 uncommented lines: "nameserver 127.0.0.53, options edns0" | 14:22 |
diogenes_ | Gusj, now run: ping google.com | 14:23 |
Gusj | diogenes_: YES!!!!Q!!! it works on google.com and jkust opened the browser and it is now working/.!!!!!!! | 14:24 |
diogenes_ | Gusj, now the lesson is, don't ever edit system config files if you don't know what are they for! | 14:24 |
Gusj | diogenes_: xubuntu.org does not let me ping... I don't understand Diogenes, was it that lo lines preventing me?? they were there before... | 14:25 |
Gusj | diogenes_: haha ok ok thank you.. but the 2 'lo' lines were there before, these 2: 'auto lo, iface lo inet loopback'\ | 14:25 |
diogenes_ | Gusj, xubuntu.org is not pingable, you must try to ping their ip. | 14:25 |
Gusj | diogenes_: It appears that those lo lines that were there before were preventing me from connecting with lan.. because the problem was there before I added the other 4 lines.. the interfaces file comes with that localhost | 14:28 |
sublevel | All my file has in is auto lo | 14:33 |
sublevel | iface lo inet loopback | 14:33 |
Gusj | sublevel: Thank you, | 14:33 |
Gusj | diogenes_: diogenes_: Thank you.. I also wanted to ask, although this is somewhat speficic, I have been wrestling with this laptop for a month now, Tomreyn has tried to help me along with TJ-, the laptop does not recognize internal keyboard and trackpad, I am runing now with usb kybrd and mouse.. the computer sees internal kybd and track pad, assigns irq but has tporuble configuring them.. only 4 keys work, one of the solutions I have found is to rec | 14:36 |
Gusj | ompile the kernel, with ACPI and Toshiba support ( CONFIG_ACPI and CONFIG_ACPI_TOSHIBA) at the present moment I have by default installation (dmesg kernel) "toshiba_acpi: Toshiba Laptop ACPI Extras version 0.24, toshiba_acpi: Unable to activate hotkeys | 14:36 |
sublevel | I haven't used it for years, but there's a program called etckeeper that lets you track changes in /etc with version management tools (e.g. git) - can be useful if you're altering things and want to check what happened at a later date | 14:36 |
Gusj | sublevel: thank you made a note for it to install it later | 14:36 |
sublevel | https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/etckeeper.html | 14:37 |
Gusj | Is there a way I can access, the 'toshiba_acpi' that got installed by default? or do you think I have to recompile kernel with these options on? | 14:37 |
Gusj | have been really struggling with this laptop trying to make at least the internal keyboard work, it shows up in 'xinput list', but when I do 'acpi_listen' only about 4 keys work.. have read ALOT of info online about this problem with toshiba laptops, the only thing I have not tried is to recompile kernel with those toshiba options on, but reading up on how to compile a kernel, I don't know WHERE do i have to set those options | 14:40 |
Gusj | keyboard and trackpad work perfectly in the bios btw | 14:40 |
Gusj | and have tried a million different grub commands, with the ones I have at the moment, I get these 4 keys to work at least, all the rest, the kybd is dead | 14:41 |
Gusj | GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="atkbd.reset=1 i8042.kbdreset=1 i8042.dumbkbd=1 i8042.reset acpi_backlight=vendor acpi_osi=! acpi_osi='Windows 2013'" | 14:41 |
Gusj | "atkbd serio0: Spurious ACK on isa0060/serio0. Some program might be trying to access hardware directly." | 14:42 |
diogenes_ | Gusj, honestly, i'd have sold (or exchange) that pc and buy something more linux friendly. | 14:43 |
Gusj | the more direct question is: where do I add those options speficially while recompiling the kernel? ( CONFIG_ACPI and CONFIG_ACPI_TOSHIBA) ?? | 14:43 |
Gusj | diogenes_: I know, I am unable to do that at the moment, I thought I would try this solution, there is an app called 'fnfx' which is avaliable through synaptic pckg manager that helps with toshiba hotkeys, but the app says in synaptic that these 2 options need to be enabled in the kernel | 14:44 |
Gusj | I have been high and low tourbleshooting this laptop, but it has helped me in learning about linux, used it 20 some years ago and back after a long time.. | 14:45 |
Gusj | I have found this guide ===> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile but I don't know at what point I can enable those toshiba options | 14:46 |
Gusj | Could somebody please take a look at the instructions at: http://jpcozar-public.wikidot.com/bluetooth-en-laptop-toshiba-satellite-usando-modulo-omnibook this is to compile a module called Omnibook that apparently helps with toshiba laptops too, can I follow theses instructions along? | 15:36 |
Gusj | they are in spanish, but to see if the directions seem appropriate for you | 15:36 |
Gusj | Spanish is my 1st language | 15:37 |
Gusj | Have not been able to install it, the package is git://omnibook.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/omnibook/omnibook and it supposed to enable hot keys functionality on toshiba laptop as well, a possible fix for my internal kybrd and trackpad not recognzed | 16:17 |
Gusj | I have already donwloded the kernel headers, and the package is in /usr/src/omnibook/omnibook all of the .c files, but I do not know how to proceed.... | 16:18 |
Gusj | is what I am trying to do called" compiling a kernel module into the kernel? so that I can google instructions? | 16:26 |
Gusj | When I do 'sudo make install' I get the following errors ===> https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/vPsVy7gfHR/ | 16:28 |

Casper26 | anyone have any idea why after i login to xubuntu 18.04 it only shows my wallpaper and blank panels? I cam ctrl alt f1 and then f7 and all is fine? | 17:51 |
diogenes_ | Casper26, is "save session" enabled? | 17:52 |
Casper26 | no | 17:53 |
diogenes_ | look in .xsession-errors | 17:55 |
Casper26 | i see a lot of QQmlComponent: Created graphical object was not placed in the graphics scene? | 18:05 |
diogenes_ | QQmlComponent? that's qt related. | 18:08 |
Casper26 | https://pastebin.com/F4T56Xby | 18:11 |
Casper26 | thats everything in the xsession-errors file | 18:11 |
diogenes_ | Casper26, what changes you did to your system? | 18:16 |
Casper26 | short of installing some applications very little | 18:17 |
Casper26 | exact same setup as 3 other machines they work fine | 18:17 |
Casper26 | only difference this machine is using proprietary nvidia drivers | 18:18 |
Casper26 | and is multi monitor | 18:19 |
diogenes_ | and this started to happen after you installed nvidia? | 18:21 |
Casper26 | no it's done since install | 18:22 |
diogenes_ | maybe try a new user. | 18:22 |
