[03:56] how do I see systemd's log files from another system? I don't see anything related to why systemd-logind is failing to start in /var/log [03:56] and /etc/systemd/journald.conf is clean, all default [03:59] and /run is empty [03:59] systemd-logind fails to start, system can't boot, and I need to figure out why [04:17] every time I reboot I need to `systemctl restart systemd-resolved` before dns starts working? [04:21] fengshaun: Can you boot to Grub's boot menu ? Perhaps then remove "quiet splash" and see where the boot process halts ? [04:22] Bashing-om, I figured journald wasn't storing logs persistently, so Storage=persistent in journald.conf helped. Now it seems dbus is failing to start because it can't find messagebus user [04:23] the strange thing is I haven't changed this vm for months and it's been running fine, then suddenly fails [04:29] fengshaun: Sorry - my VM skills are nil. [04:29] Hi all, I'm trying to update to the latest version of ubuntu eoan ermine. It aborts when I try and upgrade because of space. "The upgrade has aborted. The upgrade needs a total of 2,911M free space on disk "/"." So I need to free up some space. I have a 1tb hard drive that stores a bunch of files and photos. I then have a separate SSD that I use to boot the computer. I also thought the ubuntu upgrade I'm using would be installed on the SSD. I [04:29] am confused because when I go to directory "/" it basically includes a bunch of folders one of which leads to a 1tb hard disk. Is my understanding about all of this wrong? [04:29] thanks! just frustrating having to fix things that shouldn't have any room to break [04:29] and yet find ways to break anyway [04:33] filifunky: filifunky What shows ' df-h ; df-i ' ? We can find out what is consuming the disk space/inodes. [04:35] filifunky: ' df -h ;df -i ' silly lil spaces :( [04:36] Bashing-om I forgot how to output a command's into a link...there is some webpage I can use do you know of a page like that? [04:37] filifunky: ' df -h | nc termbin.com 9999 '. [04:37] Bashing-om: that's the one! https://termbin.com/8yi6 [04:38] Bashing-om, that is from the / drive [04:41] I guess the issue is /dev/sdb7...but I'm not sure what that is, because my 1TB hard drive is the /dev/sda2 and the ssd is /dev/sdb4 [04:42] is this a partitioning issue? Like I can allocate more of my 1TB hard drive to the sdb7? [04:47] filifunky: I see no immediate problem, however "37G 33G 2.5G 93% /" needs some attention. you do not want a linux partition to exceed 90% capacity - fragmentation issues. Will have to see what the complete error is for the "out of space". [04:50] This error message?: "The upgrade is aborted. The upgrade needs a total of 2,911M free space on disk '/'. Please free at least an additional 1,113M of disk space on '/'. Empty your trash and remove temporary packages of former installations using 'sudo apt-get clean'. [04:51] I did the sudo apt-get clean. and I get that error still. I just emptied my trash and am trying again but think it'll be the same [04:52] yeah, same result. [04:52] any tips for what is usually deletable Bashin-om? [04:54] it looks like I have a bunch of stuff in .cache that looks deletable [04:54] filifunky: Generally files in /home and oldlogs . to see the hogs run ' cd / ; sudo du -sx * | sort -n '- or see what ncdu tells you :) [04:56] Bashin-om thanks I'm going to goof around tinkering with that [04:56] looks like Spotify puts a lot of stuff on my computer I'm going to try and delete [05:01] Bashing-om: termbin, cute stuff :) [05:02] flog: Several others - but termbin is my favorite.

[11:03] anyway, it's *probably* going to need broadcom-wl for Wi-Fi [11:05] With no WiFi is there a way to apt install [11:06] a) ethernet, b) USB ethernet / USB wi-fi (if you're lucky enough to have an adapter that itself doesn't need extra drivers) [11:06] c) download packages elsewhere onto a USB stick, then dpkg -i them [11:09] emilyo11_: reinstall, when booted into Live, check driver manager and install Broadcom Proprietary driver, then click the option during install to install third party drivers [11:09] How to reinstall? [11:10] Use the same USB stick, unless you can use USB tethering to a smart phone [11:59] Thanks for the help.

[12:38] ioria, yes man, check your memo messages :)))) [12:38] i sent you some memo messages [12:38] and the bug [12:39] i was very lucky to spot the fix [12:39] croraf, i did; so you installed in legacy mode ? [12:39] i maybe did, not really sure [12:39] crazymax, I think you need to install exfat-* [12:39] but the disabling of Wayland did most of work i think [12:40] croraf, what nvidia version are you using at the moment ? [12:40] i switched to 435 first [12:40] and it worked really good [12:40] now i switched to 440 [12:40] its also good [12:40] croraf, ok [12:40] but i ran the opengl gmark2 and showes 10% lower score for 440 [12:41] now i run normally with 440 (435 also the same) with pci=nommconf and with Wayland disabled in the gnome config file [12:41] ioria, [12:42] i maybe instlaled in legacy mode, how to check that [12:42] i did some checks and it didnt show that [12:42] but was set up in BIOS, which I setup at some point, not sure before or after install. now i am back to UEFI and it works ok. [12:42] croraf, what is weird about that wayland option is that it 's disabled by default (i mean it's commented), so it should not be a problem [12:43] no, the option is Wayland=disabled or something or WaylandDisabled=true [12:43] and is commented [12:43] so I uncomment it, that Wayland becomes Disabled [12:43] croraf, run this : [ -d /sys/firmware/efi ] && echo UEFI || echo BIOS [12:44] https://askubuntu.com/a/975098/754424 [12:44] akem: how can i install exfat-*?

I know it's 4.15 something, but there are about 75 variations [18:21] <_plasma> Is it 4.15.0-55? [18:22] 159 - 22 should be removed with autoremove, no? [18:22] OerHeks: I like that idea. but seems to be false. [18:23] <_plasma> canonical really needs to document this [18:23] _plasma: why not use the current kernel? [18:24] _plasma, so you installed HWE? boot and hold shift, i think the 4.15 kernel is istill there [18:24] <_plasma> CarlFK: Because when trying to compile the kernel module with CUDA 10.0 it throws a bunch of errors, and online it seems to indicate that the code is out of date. But NVIDIA unhelpfully does'nt publish docs saying which kernel 10.0 was designed for [18:25] <_plasma> The website didn't say HWE or not, it just said "ubuntu 18.04," no dot release info either. Maybe I Can check /etc/os-release [18:25] _plasma: URL of kernel module you are trying to complie?

I can find that precise version if I boot up my box [18:28] bumbar, please, paste the exact cmd you are using [18:29] with that run file, you need to update yourself, better add the repo https://medium.com/@exesse/cuda-10-1-installation-on-ubuntu-18-04-lts-d04f89287130 [18:29] <_plasma> that's for 10.1, which does install corretly with kernel 5.0.0, but I need 10.0, which is based on an older nvidia drvier and thus older kernel [18:30] oke, then boot and hold shift, i think the 4.15 kernel is istill there [18:30] <_plasma> I'll get back to that menu but I installed some 4.15 kernels and tried those, so Id on't know which is the new one or not [18:30] that is, if you installed 5.x with HWE [18:31] !hwe [18:31] The Ubuntu LTS enablement stacks provide newer kernel and X support for existing LTS releases, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack [18:31] _plasma: are you trying to compile manually (like running make) or install the package https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/10.0/Prod/docs/sidebar/CUDA_Installation_Guide_Linux.pdf [18:31] sudo apt-get install cuda [18:32] <_plasma> CarlFK: I'm following the CUDA installation guide, yea, which recommends using either the deb or the runfile. I've tried both with no success, but most recently teh runfile. [18:32] <_plasma> OerHeks: Holding shift didn't have an effect, but escape does.

[18:34] makes it easy to cut/paste all the things [18:34] <_plasma> I tried the runfile on all those versions, I believe, but not the deb. I suspect 4.15 is the closest to stock? I could try 4.18 [18:35] <_plasma> I wish ther ewas a way to know for sure. Like they should publish a a list [18:35] _plasma: I doubt they want to put effort into 'old' stuff [18:35] that's why I would try to work with what should work [18:36] <_plasma> Well I did try what should work, but they didn't even specify Kernel 4x for CUDA 10.0. It's all just outdated docs that worked at one point in time and now don't. Ubuntu changed between that release and now, with updates and kernel versions [18:36] <_plasma> anyway, Trying 4-15.0-70-generic with the deb in a sec [18:37] I have to use a close source blob from https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/decklink/techspecs/W-DLK-06 and it builds a module for whatever kernel I am running [18:37] so I'm sure if they have figured it out, so has nvidida [18:37] <_plasma> you'd think so. But even lamabdastack didn't work [18:38] for you ;) [18:38] <_plasma> with no documentation indicating why my bone-stock environment might be different [18:38] <_plasma> this is a brand new 18.04 installation on supported hardware [18:40] im surprised I don't see a Debian option - I have that handy to test stuff on .. lets see what happens ... [18:43] <_plasma> haha, nvidia's instructions are broken, of course: `sudo apt-key add /var/cuda-repo-/7fa2af80.pub`, without information on what is. it's not 10.0, not 10-0, not 10-0-local, etc. [18:43] <_plasma> it was cuda-repo-10-0-local-10.0.130-410.48 [18:43] <_plasma> clearly! [18:44] <_plasma> it wants to remove xserver-xorg-hwe-18.04, but I'm not sure if it'll replace it with another xorg. I can see... [18:47] _plasma: did you get: cuda : Depends: cuda-10-0 (>= 10.0.130) but it is not going to be installed [18:48] <_plasma> it got to the update-initramfs step this time! [18:48] <_plasma> CarlFK: I didn't. WHich debian is that? [18:48] <_plasma> going to reboot into a higher runlevel (or systemd equivalent concept), and see if I get X [18:49] <_plasma> my whole goal with this is to get GPU acceleration with tensorflow whne I do gpt-2 [18:49] _plasma: buster with kernel v4, trying with 5 now [18:49] <_plasma> which is a super amazing predictive text model, that you might have fun checking out: https://talktotransformer.com/ [18:49] <_plasma> aha [18:50] no help with 5. but debian, so this doesnt' really help [18:50] <_plasma> ya, not super surprised. It hardly even works in ubuntu 18.04 [18:50] I happen to need to test building a ubuntu box.. so this fits well [18:50] <_plasma> I got no X. Had to do startx and now just a hung xorg screen [18:51] <_plasma> what's the proper way to start X? I don't know why it didn't go to gdm3 [18:51] <_plasma> ah, I forgot to do update-grub [18:52] <_plasma> haha! well now I see gdm3 but my keyboard and mouse don't work [18:53] For a deb package I'm making, should I put Xorg configuration files on /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d or /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d? [18:54] you problaby want ...um.. something like systemctl start lightdm.system [18:55] <_plasma> by updating grub (I had put text 3 at the end of the linux line) systemd now starts gdm3 again. but no input. I'm thinking apt removed xserver-xorg-input or something [18:55] <_plasma> due to dependency hell [18:56] <_plasma> I installed xserver-xorg-input-libinput and at least now my mouse and keyboard work. jesus. [18:56] <_plasma> AND nvidia-settings shows 410.48 running! Now to install cudnn [19:02] <_plasma> woo! cudnn tests passed. Now to try tensorflow..... === tarator85 is now known as tarator [19:07] _plasma: thats progress.. maybe you can coax it into ruinning on a current kernel [19:08] <_plasma> CarlFX: I'm deathly afraid of touching it once it works. I'm on to the final test now. TF 1.13.1 found the GPU this time though! [19:14] _plasma: im burning a ubuntu installer to a usb stick.. in 30 min or so I may have a box I can test on [19:15] <_plasma> nice! you're trying with a 5.x kernel? which cuda and GPU? [19:18] <_plasma> CarlFK: Woooow it works! And it's SO Much faster! [19:18] <_plasma> 10x faster [19:22] _plasma: I don't have a nvidia cpu, I need to test https://salsa.debian.org/debconf-video-team/ansible/blob/master/usbinst/configs/ubuntu-18.04.cfg that just landed a few days ago [19:23] which is the tail of https://debconf-video-team.pages.debian.net/ansible/usb_install/usb_quick_start.html [19:23] so I'll have whatever that does. which currently says "Boot Error" >: [19:24] <_plasma> ahh interesting. I'm unfamiliar with ansible. Is it like salt? [19:26] yes - I think salt needs a client installed on the target? [19:26] ansible uses ssh to run all the things [19:27] they all have pros n cons. I really only know about ansible, and it works well enough for this, an the teem is familiar with it, so it isn't going anywhere any time soon. [19:28] but.. the "wget installer.. bla bla boot the stick" is .. works under qemu, dosn't boot on mettle grumble.. [19:29] arg. it boots, but later "no kernel modules found" .. I bet ubuntu has a new point release. grumble. [19:29] <_plasma> nice. I have a server with VMs that would benefit from automation [19:29] <_plasma> for updates and such [19:29] <_plasma> danm [19:30] oh good. got the same "boot error" on bios booting. [19:30] qemu works with uefi, but not legacy. box has uefi, why didn't it do that? >: hardware!!!! [19:31] <_plasma> haha [19:31] ver=18.04.3 is that current? how would I know? (this souldn't be so hard) [19:32] <_plasma> welcome to the last 24 hours of my life! [19:32] <_plasma> they don't document version changes and *exactly* what changed [19:33] http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases hmm.. looks like 18.04.3 is 'right' [19:38] getting 19.04 images while I fightr wiht bios eufi on the box [19:39] "pres DEL to enter EFI bios setting" umm.. I think hitting del locked up the box... [19:40] oh wow. I hit caps lock. the light goes on. and a second later it goes off!! [19:41] wth. caps long key turns the num lock light on. so does numlock. [19:43] progress: 18.04.3 installer booted. and got to the "no kernel modules" error. just in time for the 19.04 stick to be ready. onward... [19:45] boo. same error, [19:47] 19.10 here we come... [19:47] <_plasma> :O [19:51] doh. I need to change bionic to .. other things. [19:57] <_plasma> I could do without release names [19:57] <_plasma> I can never keep them straight [19:57] <_plasma> an dthen people use one or the other and it's unclear where the mapping is sometimes [20:05] k - partition formated. installing system... eaon I think :p lunch time for me. [20:09] is there a way to browse packages online for ubuntu 19.10 64-bit on RPi4? [20:13] peepsalot: can use apt list or search options, or: packages.ubuntu.com/ https://packages.ubuntu.com/eoan/allpackages [20:15] yelof: i don't see a way to filter for architecture on packages.ubuntu.com. and I don't have it installed on RPi4 to run apt etc. I wanted to check some package versions first [20:22] https://packages.ubuntu.com/ gives no *arm64* archtecture to select.. [20:23] peepsalot: try here, would have to choose by repo, then browse through main and select arch http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/ [20:23] oh good find [20:30] Hi everyone, I can't get mysql to work. I checked my syslog and I have this: mysql.service: Failed to determine user credentials: No such process [20:31] the mysql irc chat said this is an issue for the ubuntu chat [20:31] one person said I should ask the "ubuntu package maintainer" [20:34] hello sister channel [20:34] anyone able to help? [20:35] i want to get a http url for this key apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-keys 3FA7E0328081BFF6A14DA29AA6A19B38D3D831EF [20:35] i need to put it in salt [20:40] Hello. Every mouse I use starts freezing randomly and kernel swap brakes other things. How to fix it? Full problem description here: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2429346 [20:54] filifunky: which ubuntu release are you running there? run this in a terminal to find out: lsb_release -ds [20:54] hi tomreyn! Ubuntu 19.10 [20:55] I just learned about LT vs ST versions, I'll know to stick with LT versions next time [20:55] !LTS is probably what you mean [20:55] !LTS [20:55] LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions are supported for 5 years on the desktop and server. The latest LTS version of Ubuntu is !Bionic (Bionic Beaver 18.04). Ubuntu !flavors may have different support durations, check their release notes for information. [20:56] ahh yes, that's right [20:56] Do LTS come out every 5 years? [20:57] every 2 years [20:57] filifunky: can you show some more log context, on a pastebin? [20:57] journalctl -b -u mysql [20:59] this is my syslog: https://termbin.com/ber9 [20:59] and here is my mysql error log: https://termbin.com/4qme [21:00] and here is the journalctl command: https://termbin.com/jwv3 [21:02] filifunky: did this happen out of the blue, or did you do an upgrade recently or anything? [21:03] tomreyn oh sorry yeah forgot to mention that yeah I upgraded from I think the 19.04 to the 19.10 and that's when I had problems [21:04] and you run a unity desktop on the same system? [21:04] and an irc server? [21:06] Honestly don't know what a unity desktop is. and an IRC server, probably not but also don't know why I would run that. Don't know what the relationship is between chatting here on irc and having an irc server. [21:09] filifunky: i was looking at https://termbin.com/ber9 where there are references to unity, and to ircd-irc2. maybe some of these are leftovers. it's already unusual to tun a mysql server on the same system you run a graphical desktop on, though. [21:10] filifunky: regarding mysql, it's clear that your disk ran full at some point, which is something you want to prevent in general, and especially for database servers. [21:10] Nov 17 00:45:47 pete-H81M-HD2 rsyslogd: file '9' write error: No space left on device [v8.1901.0 try https://www.rsyslog.com/e/2027 ] [21:10] tomreyn, not unusual for me to do something unusual and harmful lol. Yep you're reading me like a book. I had to delete some data that spotify was putting on my computer [21:11] filifunky: i'm sorry to leave you in this mess but i have to leave for now. should be back in an hour or so but more likely someone else will help out in the meantime if you can repeat your question. [21:11] here's some more things you could post: [21:11] nc termbin.com 9999 < <(lsb_release -ds;cat /proc/{version,cmdline};echo "Session: $XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP ($XDG_SESSION_TYPE)";echo Shell: $SHELL) [21:12] sudo /bin/true && cat &>/tmp/aptlog < <(sudo apt-get -y update 2>&1; apt-cache policy 2>&1; sudo apt-get -syV full-upgrade 2>&1;); nc termbin.com 9999 the first is to gather more general info on your system, the second is to gather info on your APT (software package manager) configuration [21:12] ttyl, filifunky [21:13] ok, thanks tomreyn I appreciate it [21:13] https://termbin.com/8k8e [21:14] https://termbin.com/torg [21:15] If anyone else wants to join on my adventure it'd be appreciated! [21:16] filifunky, what about: df -h [21:17] hi kostkon! https://termbin.com/pls0 [21:18] my /dev/sdb7 was 93% earlier, I threw away some spotify files so that helped [21:18] unity is a desktop shell gui like but not totally like windows desktop its where you point and click to run apps [21:19] hi xBfrog! hmm...I've been using ubuntu for a while and I could always click on apps so maybe I've just always been using unity [21:20] the desktop gui- unity i believe can be changed [21:20] its just a shell [21:20] desktop shell gui ..? [21:20] shell, something that fits over your os [21:21] gui-graphical user interface [21:21] http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/kgxkPKNhP6/ cuda : Depends: cuda-10-0 (>= 10.0.130) but it is not going to be installed ... why not? [21:21] i'm a n00b still learnig to take baby steps [21:22] _plasma: ^^ eaon - that might be why not. I'll try on 18.04 pretty soon... === Luke_ is now known as Luke [21:32] <_plasma> carlfk: Hmm [21:48] since my last update my sound is popping and the words are chopppy, anyone know how to fix this? [21:48] on all apps that have sound including music [21:49] Anybody around that can help me with a networking issue? I've been trying at it for 3 hours now and have gotten nowhere... [21:49] i have tried all the fixes i can find and nothing helps [21:51] maybe more about the issue and less about how you're feeling? :P [21:51] _plasma: im still messing with 19's.. I have an 18 usb stick waiting for 19.04 to finish [21:52] oh oh.. my ssd may be failing.. yay. [21:54] CarlFK: congrats! =) [21:54] So ive come across an issue recently where my wifi suddenly refuses to connect, It's been working fine until this morning, ive run through the logs, and have tried numerous fixes, includng cold booting the PC, cold booting the router, connecting to different wifi devices, etc, but 3 errors persist. (https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/HrV2HVWQfR/) [21:56] the adapter I'm having issue with is a NetGear AC600, on a cold boot, the wifi will connect for a solid 5 second, then like clockwork, quit and get stuck in a loop of trying to re-connect [21:58] "logs"? [21:58] this on the AP, STA? [21:58]
