[00:34] <sparr> The brightness hotkeys (Fn+F11 and Fn+F12) on my Dell XPS laptop stopped working around the time I upgraded to 19.10. They don't produce any events at all that xev can see. Is there some way I might investigate why?
[01:01] <xyz111> Hello, I'd like to stop systemd-resolve from running on port 53 as I'm wanting to run a dns server on there. The problem is, if I do that, I seem to lose internet access (`curl google.com` gives me "Could not resolve host"). Is there a way for me to stop systemd-resolve while still being able to resolve host names?
[01:06] <pragmaticenigma> xyz111: You shouldn't need to remove or disable systemd-resolved. systemd-resolved binds itself to 127.0.1.1#53 as it will only respond to the queries of the local machine
[01:07] <pragmaticenigma> xyz111: You would be better asking the question in #ubuntu-server ... as this channel primarily focuses on the Ubuntu Desktop installation
[01:18] <xyt> didnt know there was a ubuntu-server channel
[01:28] <Tabmow> Is there a simple way to enable back/forward buttons on my mouse? Everything I've read seems very outdated...
[01:33] <miu5> Hi guys, im on ubuntu 18.04 and i have an issue with sending mail using mailutils. The issue is the body of the message comes up empty when attaching a file, but seems to be hidden in the header of the email. Basically this is my problem here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/55199692/sending-e-mail-from-bash-script   So i updated mailutils to 3.8 and i am having the exact same issue!  Please can someone help?
[01:35] <OerHeks> mailutils 3.8 is not yet in our repos.
[01:36] <miu5> well mailutils 3.4 had that specific bug and apparently was fixed in 3.5 and i so i built and compiled it.
[01:36] <miu5> read the issue on that link, i manually updated to 3.8
[01:37] <miu5> in 3.4 the body message did not appear in the header nor in the body of the email, but in 3.8 it only appears in the header. i dont know wtf im not seeing the body message when i use the attach option. i only see it if i dont attach anything.
[01:40] <miu5> i see this content of the body in the header like this:
[01:40] <miu5> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
[01:40] <miu5> Content-Disposition: attachment
[01:40] <miu5> Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
[01:52] <OerHeks> oke, so, filing a bugreport is useless without that package in our repos .. i find no simular bugreport on launchpad.
[01:52] <OerHeks> fix to mailutils 3.5.x *
[01:52] <OerHeks> eoan is on 3.7 https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=mailutils
[01:54] <miu5> i dont understand why ubuntu revisions need to be stuck on old version packages, for example: mailutils is 3.4 and theres bugs in that. why cant it be updated?
[01:55] <OerHeks> 1:3.4-1, that -1 is a backported version
[01:56] <pragmaticenigma> !latest | miu5 - here's why
[01:57] <miu5> well this bug was fixed in 3.5.  and in 3.8 im getting the same issue.
[01:58] <OerHeks> oke, file a bug to mailutils directly?
[01:59] <pragmaticenigma> miu5: As OerHeks mentioned, the volunteers here rely on the documentation and the version as supplied in the package repos. It's really hard to support something there is no documentation for, as it applies to the installation in the Ubuntu system. That'd be like replacing the radio in your car and going to the car dealership where you bought the car and asking them to fix the radio because it doesn't work.
[02:00] <pragmaticenigma> miu5: If you choose to install a newer/different version, you will have to seek out support from the source of that version you installed.
[02:00] <OerHeks> else a bugreport here will be rejected, ofcourse, and maybe your observation of a regression is the reason why ubuntu did not update to 3.8 ...
[02:00] <OerHeks> LTS would not get 3.8, just backported fixes, no features
[02:01] <OerHeks> same on debian https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=mailutils
[02:39] <unleaded> Hi there, is anyone having WiFi issues with Ubuntu 19.10? I'm having a problem where it won't automatically reconnect after suspend or soemtimes even reboot. This has been an issue in Fedora 31 also.
[02:40] <unleaded> My WiFi card is an Intel AX200.
[02:40] <unleaded> Once connected, the connection is solid and stable however only during resuming from suspend, the WiFi won't connect and I have to go in and manually click on the WiFi SSID in Network Settings (GNOME)
[02:58] <dansan> Hello.  I have a server on trusty and I need to upgrade rsync to 3.1.2-something (and < 3.1.3).  However, this doesn't appear to be available for this version of the distro.  How do I find it and install it with any of its deps?
[03:00] <Bashing-om> !trusty | dansan
[03:00] <OerHeks> how about upgrading to an supported ubuntu version?
[03:00] <OerHeks> you have no latest kernel upgrades, and fixes. so i guess your machine should not be on the internet
[03:01] <dansan> ah, EOLed.  For some reason I thought I saw somewhere it was scheduled for EOL in 2022
[03:01] <dansan> OerHeks: aww, isn't that cute
[03:02] <OerHeks> get 18.04 and do a fresh install?
[03:02] <OerHeks> https://launchpad.net/rsync/+packages
[03:02] <dansan> I wish they had built this VM with a separate device for data -- would be a lot easier on me :(
[03:02] <OerHeks> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BionicBeaver/ReleaseNotes
[03:02] <dansan> OerHeks: ty!
[03:02] <OerHeks> jups, a vm is easier to test out
[03:03] <dansan> Well, this is a VM on a cloud
[03:03] <dansan> Isn't everything a VM though?
[03:03] <OerHeks> a bunch of cpu, gpu, mem and the internet
[03:03] <dansan> ::)
[03:06] <xyz111> pragmaticenigma: ah got it, thank you - I've made my dns server bind to a specific IP address, which has fixed the problem
[03:06] <pragmaticenigma> xyz111: awesome!
[03:14] <dansan> Wow, I guess I'm not a Debian/Ubuntu guy.  I'm trying to read the control file ( http://dpaste.com/2WP11RD ) for rsync-3.1.2.2-1ubuntu1 to figure out the library deps to see if I can just hack-er-ate it or not :)\
[03:14] <dansan> Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}
[03:14] <dansan> how do I resolve that? :)
[03:15] <dansan> Wait, maybe I'm thinking of this wrong.  Is this one of those things where I can just say "Build-Depends: libpopt-dev,libacl1-dev,libattr1-dev" and it means the version of lilbopt, libacl1 and libattr1 in the distro?
[04:05] <truexfan81> well wish me luck, i just typed "do-release-upgrade" and told it yes, so now its attempting to upgrade from 19.04 to 19.10
[04:56] <Zidgel> Hi, would it be appropriate or inappropriate to ask for help in making/installing an external program on Ubuntu? It's regarding something called protoc. I thought I installed it correctly, it will show the version when asked, but when I attempt to build something that uses it as a dependency, it shows im completely missing a directory. I installed
[04:56] <Zidgel> according to https://askubuntu.com/questions/1072683/how-can-i-install-protoc-on-ubuntu-16-04 (on 18.04)
[04:56] <Zidgel> I cannot paste the error message because I'm running on a VM
[04:57] <Zidgel> but it says im missing a directory+file protobuf-c/protobuf-c.h
[05:01] <argusbr> ubuntu 19.04 is good?
[05:02] <ryuo> argusbr: you would be better off with 19.10 at this point. 19.04 is discontinued soon.
[05:02] <lotuspsychje> !discuss | argusbr
[05:03] <ryuo> lotuspsychje: it seemed relevant to me to an extent.
[05:03] <lotuspsychje> ryuo: i didnt mean it that way mate, your suggest is also great
[05:03] <ryuo> ok.
[05:12] <truexfan81> on 19.10 is there a command i can type to force an ssd trim?
[05:13] <lotuspsychje> !trim | truexfan81
[05:14] <truexfan81> ah sudo fstrim / thank you lotuspsychje
[05:15] <truexfan81> strim: /: the discard operation is not supported
[05:15] <truexfan81> what?
[05:15] <truexfan81> maybe i need to add the discard option to my fstab or something?
[05:16] <lotuspsychje> truexfan81: ubuntu is already optimized to work with ssd's these days, what else are you trying to do exactly?
[05:17] <truexfan81> i just did a release upgrade to 19.10, so now its feeling a bit sluggish, i feel like doing a trim would fix that, i know trimming after windows 10 upgrades speeds it back up
[05:18] <lotuspsychje> truexfan81: try to pin down the 'sluggy' issue first, seek the root cause of it before
[05:19] <truexfan81> well terminal which usually launches instantly, takes a few seconds to load, dolphin feels a bit slow
[05:20] <truexfan81> not sure what those have in common
[05:22] <lotuspsychje> truexfan81: your system specs can handle kde? graphics card driver installed properly?
[05:23] <truexfan81> ryzen7 1700 with 16GB of ddr4 3k, and an rtx2060 with nvidia 440.31 driver installed and working
[05:24] <parakovsky> EriC^^: something constantly reset changes that xmodmap makes and I have yet to find out
[05:25] <EriC^^> parakovsky: without rebooting?
[05:25] <parakovsky> yes sir
[05:26] <EriC^^> odd
[05:26] <parakovsky> EriC^^: apparently xmodmap is not fully supported any more, I am looking for ways that is not need to create new layout just for that like xkb solution mentioned
[05:27] <truexfan81> lotuspsychje: i suppose its possible the cpu isn't being forced into max performance mode which could slow things down as the program has to wait for it to clock back up?
[05:28] <EriC^^> parakovsky: yeah probably better
[05:28] <lotuspsychje> truexfan81: if i was you, i would systematic try to rule out things, like compare your system with a liveusb 19.10 with your current upgraded one
[05:28] <lotuspsychje> truexfan81: check your dmesg/journal logs too, see if you can catch anything for errors
[05:29] <parakovsky> EriC^^: sorry to hear that's not possible without huge effort of creating alternative layout, my other distros works just fine with xmodmap, it is apparently a gnome issue. maybe they can add this opiton to tweaks or something.
[05:30] <EriC^^> parakovsky: maybe xbindkeys can work instead?
[05:32] <EriC^^> i wonder if some program is just loading the default map up once it loads itself or something
[05:32] <Shentino> so if I change the name of my root lv or my vg, how do I properly inform grub/etc about the update?  grub-update et all is failing saying that my old lv/vg doesn't exist anymore
[05:33] <parakovsky> It's not a program it's a daemon or something am sure there is no clear pattern or I would figure it out already
[05:33] <truexfan81> i just rebooted back to the windows 10 ssd after 19.10 hard froze while i was watching a video in mpv
[05:34] <EriC^^> parakovsky: is the map somewhere in the pc as a file?
[05:35] <parakovsky> ~/.Xmodmap if you mean what I understood
[05:35] <parakovsky> the command executed is xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap
[05:35] <parakovsky> but it has to be re-evaluated at random intervals due to this problem
[05:36] <EriC^^> parakovsky: i mean like where the os actually stores the map
[05:37] <EriC^^> looking at an strace of xmodmap -pke
[05:37] <EriC^^> maybe you could make that file immutable or something somehow, so script sets the new map, then nothing can change it during that boot
[05:37] <lotuspsychje> truexfan81: journal logs
[05:41] <truexfan81> lotuspsychje: i'd be surprised if it had time to log the cause of the freeze, it was sudden, and froze so hard i had to walk around and hit the reset button on the front of the case
[05:58] <pabed> is there anyone who knows the package name included  "macof"?
[06:07] <guiverc> pabed, maybe dsniff
[06:07] <SE7EN`> nmap and such
[06:08] <pyler> how can i touch same file in multiple folders? something like touch */file.txt where * represents all subdirectories
[06:09] <guiverc> pyler, `find` with an -exec paramater?
[06:12] <pabed> there wasn't finally I installed kali repo on it
[06:28] <joe_alf> hi, is it possible to install vagrant and docker?
[08:24] <isomari> I'm current on Eoan and I just updated my kernel using apt"sudo apt-get upgrade linux-image-generic" and now my system boots to busybox.
[08:24] <isomari> I now how to boot into my old kernel. What went wrong?
[08:26] <lotuspsychje> isomari: uname -a ?
[08:26] <isomari> Linux server-ver0S 5.3.0-18-generic #19-Ubuntu SMP Tue Oct 8 20:14:06 UTC 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[08:27] <isomari> that should have read "I now have to boot into my old kernel"
[08:37] <lotuspsychje> !info linux-image-generic eoan
[08:37] <lotuspsychje> isomari: wich one is the kernel not booting?
[08:38] <isomari> 5.3.0-18-generic. Only when I choose it from grub->advanced.
[08:38] <lotuspsychje> isomari: you are suppose to boot the current kernel -24
[08:39] <isomari> it drops to busybox.
[08:40] <isomari> I purged 24 and reinstalled more than once and it continues to drop to busybox after each update.
[08:40] <isomari> If I purge and boot, it boots normally into 18.
[08:40] <lotuspsychje> isomari: you say -18 doesnt boot?
[08:40] <isomari> after I purge 24 it boots.
[08:41] <isomari> after updated to 24, I have to go to grub->advanced to choose 18.
[08:41] <isomari> in short, 24 does not boot if instelled.
[08:43] <isomari> my current state is 24 is purged and I'm normally booting into 18.
[09:41] <phangles> I am having an issue with my laptop running Ubuntu 19.10. Specifically, the screen keeps blacking our for 10 seconds intermittently. Possibly due to having a R4/5 or R7 dual graphics card. Any solution to this issue?
[09:44] <ryuo> phangles: under active use?
[09:45] <phangles> I believe so
[09:46] <ryuo> phangles: dual GPUs laptops have always been a messy situation... has it worked correctly under any installation before?
[09:46] <ryuo> not counting windows
[09:47] <phangles> It worked previously under 17 and 18. I vaguely remember having a problem before but cannot for the life of me remember how I solved it last time.
[09:47] <phangles> this very problem before*
[09:47] <ryuo> it's likely some kind of regression in the software stack then.
[09:48] <phangles> This was a fresh install from a disc. Completely overwritten the last OS
[09:48] <ryuo> good to know, but my statement still stands. you may have to go back to an older LTS if you want to fix the issue.
[09:49] <ryuo> another idea is to update your BIOS if there's any available.
[09:49] <ryuo> it may help fix weird issues.
[09:49] <ryuo> otherwise i usually have had to downgrade until the issue was fixed.
[09:50] <ryuo> i've had no issues with an R5 IGP under bionic.
[09:51] <phangles> Yeah. I am 100% sure I managed to solve the problem last time and it involved additional drivers... I have spent a while trying to remember exactly and searching for the sources, but drawing blanks.
[09:51] <ryuo> the amd proprietary drivers are basically gone.
[09:52] <ryuo> there's a set of pro drivers but that's it these days.
[09:52] <ryuo> i think amd only supports those officially on ubuntu LTS releases.
[10:09] <easyOnMe> hi
[10:09] <easyOnMe> need some help
[10:09] <easyOnMe> I am encountering this error in install phpmyadmin
[10:19] <easyOnMe> please help: http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/H9gMh5ZH8D/
[10:20] <easyOnMe> please explain the error
[10:23] <easyOnMe> please help me correct any errors I made thanks in advance
[10:23] <Ben64> probably best to install phpmyadmin from the website, one of the very rare circumstances where I would not suggest using the package manager
[10:25] <phangles> has anyone else had trouble with a flickering (5 seconds of black screen) on this os?
[10:27] <Swisscheese> As a newbie, where can I find a lightweight alternative to CLI - maybe a simple GUI or minimal menu system.
[10:28] <Ben64> depends what you want to do
[10:35] <phangles> sometimes it seems like the screen is flipping itself to the left or right
[10:36] <Swisscheese> Ben64 - basic things like adding users, installing things, viewing files. I'm uncomfortable learning CLI.
[10:37] <Ben64> Swisscheese: well you have the system settings, the software center, and various other applications
[10:41] <Swisscheese> Anything with a menu like A=Add user, L=List files, I=Install app...?
[10:42] <th34lch3m1st> Hi all
[10:42] <Ben64> ha, no
[10:42] <Swisscheese> Must exist something between CLI and full linux GUI.
[10:43] <Ben64> no
[10:43] <th34lch3m1st> touchpad stopped working on my 16.04 laptop installation, but it works fine  with a live usb 19.04
[10:43] <th34lch3m1st> I have tried: modprobe psmouse
[10:44] <th34lch3m1st> xinput enable/disable touchpad id
[10:44] <th34lch3m1st> Nothing works
[10:44] <Nozzzle> hello, how can I sync calendar and contacts between two computers?
[10:45] <th34lch3m1st> Now apt tell me: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/HdpdVZV5hr
[10:47] <th34lch3m1st> "the following packages has unresolved dependencies...." xserver-xorg-input-synaptics depends on .....see my paste
[10:53] <Ben64> th34lch3m1st: so install those
[10:56] <th34lch3m1st> Ben64 If only I  knew the name of the package that contain them....
[10:57] <Ben64> well xserver-xorg-core is xserver-xorg-core
[10:58] <th34lch3m1st> Ben64 and xorg-input-abi-22
[10:58] <Ben64> try one at a time
[10:59] <th34lch3m1st> Ben64 synaptic doesn't find any xorg-inout-abi
[11:00] <th34lch3m1st> *inout
[11:00] <th34lch3m1st> *input
[11:00] <Ben64> did you do xserver-xorg-core yet
[11:00] <th34lch3m1st> Ben64 just a second
[11:03] <th34lch3m1st> Ben64 synaptic has find: xserver-xorg-core-hwe-16.04 (installed version 2:1.19.6-1ubuntu4.1-16.04.2)
[11:03] <th34lch3m1st> *has found
[11:04] <Ben64> then you need the matching hwe synaptics
[11:05] <th34lch3m1st> Ben64 searching for which pachage?
[11:06] <Ben64> search for synaptics and install the one that matches your xserver-xorg

[11:26] <bartden> hi, is it possible to allow installation of packages via apt-get as a non root user in a home folder?
[11:28] <Mathisen> no
[11:29] <oerheks> there is a discussion, that usually leads to nowhere .. https://askubuntu.com/questions/339/how-can-i-install-a-package-without-root-access
[11:30] <oerheks> pip/pip3 could install python packages as user
[11:32] <rory> bartden: there's not a simple, supported way. but depending on the package, you could get the .deb file, extract it, and copy various files?
[11:32] <rory> oh it's mentioned in that link, sorry.
[11:33] <bartden> yeah i have looked at linux-brew, snappy … but all are limiting
[11:35] <bartden> and i want it to be straight forward for the end user ...
[11:38] <oerheks> good luck, if you find a solution, let us know
[12:25] <easyOnMe> hello everyone
[12:25] <easyOnMe> what does this mean: dpkg: error processing package phpmyadmin (--configure):
[12:25] <easyOnMe>  subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 127
[12:25] <easyOnMe> I have been struggling about this for the past two days and I have been having sleepless nights because of this
[12:26] <easyOnMe> please need your advice
[12:26] <IaMnEwHeRe> easyOnMe, it means an installation failed after post-install, why are you using dpkg in the first place, and not apt-* or apt?
[12:26] <easyOnMe> I did use apt install
[12:26] <IaMnEwHeRe> at post-install not fater, sry
[12:26] <IaMnEwHeRe> ok
[12:27] <easyOnMe> but for some reason after this error keeps on popping up that it was because of dpkg error
[12:27] <easyOnMe> I have been installing and reinstalling and this error keeps on popping up
[12:27] <easyOnMe> this has driven me nuts for the past two to three days in a row
[12:27] <IaMnEwHeRe> apt-get purge phpmyadmin to get rid of any residue and then try to make a clean install again
[12:28] <IaMnEwHeRe> other than that care to share some logs?
[12:28] <easyOnMe> this is what I did too
[12:28] <easyOnMe> many times
[12:28] <easyOnMe> http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/H9gMh5ZH8D/
[12:29] <IaMnEwHeRe> easyOnMe see /var/lib/dpkg/info/phpmyadmin.config: 88: /etc/dbconfig-common/phpmyadmin.conf: Include: not found
[12:29] <IaMnEwHeRe> there is an include that is not found
[12:29] <easyOnMe> IaMnEwHeRe: so shall I proceed
[12:30] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[12:30] <marcoagpinto> hi blue1
[12:30] <marcoagpinto> BluesKaj*
[12:30] <easyOnMe> I also strictly followed the advice from this website but to no avail: https://itsfoss.com/dpkg-returned-an-error-code-1/
[12:30] <easyOnMe> IaMnEwHeRe: I mean how shall I proceed
[12:30] <BluesKaj> hi marcoagpinto
[12:31] <IaMnEwHeRe> not all error-codes are equal or their reasons
[12:31] <IaMnEwHeRe> I might be wrong but this looks like a phpmyadmin-problem and not a repository/package-manager-problem to me
[12:34] <IaMnEwHeRe> The problem is that the config-file is not present, search for that particular file and you will find several entries, e.g. https://serverfault.com/questions/855565/installing-and-configuring-phpmyadmin-completely-through-a-shell-script
[12:34] <IaMnEwHeRe> besides my advice is to get rid of phpmyadmin it is a glaring security-concern and learning the cli will only have benefits
[12:35] <UndefinedIsNotAF> php sux, right?
[12:35] <UndefinedIsNotAF> why PHP still exists?
[12:36] <UndefinedIsNotAF> Node.js FTW!
[12:37] <IaMnEwHeRe> yeah right stop flamming,t here is no useless programming-language otherwise it would not be used
[12:37] <UndefinedIsNotAF> people still uses Cobol, and its a known Crap
[12:37] <IaMnEwHeRe> reasons might not be obvious but they are there, and my concern is not with phpmyadmin being php, but rather having a webinterface to your DB without sufficiant protection
[12:37] <UndefinedIsNotAF> that is not an argument ia
[12:37] <th34lch3m1st> le dipendenze non risolte è un errore fasullo, manca tutto lo stack xserver "non hwe", è ovvio che xserver-xorg-xinput-synaptic non le risolve....
[12:38] <UndefinedIsNotAF> IaMnEwHeRe: people listen Dustep, and this is crap too... you see my point?
[12:38] <IaMnEwHeRe> yeah I do you are a troll :D
[12:38] <UndefinedIsNotAF> IaMnEwHeRe: im not :)
[12:39] <UndefinedIsNotAF> IaMnEwHeRe: I'll be a troll if i sayed that Fedora > Ubuntu, which is obviously false
[12:39] <UndefinedIsNotAF> did i sayed that? no. So im not a troll :)
[12:41] <IaMnEwHeRe> th34lch3m1st, not everyone speaks italian, could you rephrase it in english?
[12:43] <th34lch3m1st> IaMnEwHeRe I'm in both ubuntu channel, I just typed in the wrong one....and yes, you can use gtranslator too, like I do
[12:43] <th34lch3m1st> because, you know, Italian is the mother of your telegraph language, no offence
[12:43] <IaMnEwHeRe> well I cannot be bothered to translate from a language that is not supported in the channel I am in
[12:44] <IaMnEwHeRe> and english is not my first language either, it has to do with etiquette and good manners
[12:44] <th34lch3m1st> so don't bother
[12:44] <th34lch3m1st> let it be
[12:44] <IaMnEwHeRe> well, to put it nicely, you asking for help even in english I will ignore yo
[12:44] <IaMnEwHeRe> u
[12:44] <th34lch3m1st> like it is
[12:45] <IaMnEwHeRe> just because of the nice person you are mate
[12:45] <th34lch3m1st> I repeat, I have both channel open, I just typed in the wrong one
[12:46] <th34lch3m1st> why bother translate in english if the message was for the italian one?
[12:46] <IaMnEwHeRe> that is not my point, my point I also mistype, my point is goood manners and not arrogantly requiring/requesting people to translate this stuff, and then posing like you are the hottest person in town
[12:46] <IaMnEwHeRe> because you suggested it
[12:46] <IaMnEwHeRe> if you would have just said sry I mistyped, no problem
[12:47] <th34lch3m1st> man, I think you need to lay more
[12:47] <th34lch3m1st> no offence
[12:47] <IaMnEwHeRe> nope, I am just fed up with people who think the world owns themm gratitude
[12:48] <IaMnEwHeRe> because I cannot better describe how a post like this from you "IaMnEwHeRe I'm in both ubuntu channel, I just typed in the wrong one....and yes, you can use gtranslator too, like I do .... " comes about
[12:48] <th34lch3m1st> then you will end up like Don Chisciotte
[12:48] <IaMnEwHeRe> dunno who that is don't care
[12:48] <th34lch3m1st> fighting the windmill
[12:49] <IaMnEwHeRe> No I just watch the others burn, like I did with FB and the lot, and now they are all screaming and our data and I am just kicking back and laughing my ass off
[12:49] <bindi> sounds like you two should fight in private instead of filling the channel with offtopic stuff
[12:49] <th34lch3m1st> I'm not on FB
[12:49] <th34lch3m1st> neither twitter
[12:49] <th34lch3m1st> no instagram
[12:49] <bindi> !offtopic
[12:50] <th34lch3m1st> bindi you are right
[12:52] <th34lch3m1st> but there's always someone that want put the dots on everything
[12:54] <th34lch3m1st> relax people, relax
[12:57] <th34lch3m1st> that said, have a nice day you all
[12:59] <IaMnEwHeRe> Isn't there a way to ban people from ice?
[13:00] <IaMnEwHeRe> irc sry, people become a nuisance lately, either they are trolls or because they have an ego to big for themselfs, or like me take offense to that.
[13:08] <FurretUber> Hi, is there a way to make snaps work on 5.5 kernel? Currently, it just says "cannot self-bind mount /run/snapd/ns: Cannot allocate memory"
[13:13] <oerheks> FurretUber, no.
[13:13] <oerheks> wait for the offical release?
[13:13] <oerheks> .. and really, RC1 .. ?   https://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/
[13:14] <FurretUber> OK... :/ I'm using drm-tip due to some upstream bug reports and snapd stopping working was unexpected

[13:45] <qwebirc95665> Hello, i have 2 disks in my laptop a windows one and a ubuntu one (DUALBOOT) i wiped the windows one and now i cant boot in to ubuntu. i tried supergrub and was able to unlock the luke encryption and i am now in an emergency mode
[13:46] <qwebirc95665> what do i have to do to boot in my ubuntu and why does that no longer work after i formated the windows disk?
[13:53] <EriC^^> qwebirc95665: do you hav a live usb/environment
[13:53] <qwebirc95665> yes, it has currently supergrub on it
[13:53] <qwebirc95665> or supergrub 2
[13:54] <IaMnEwHeRe> qwerbirc95665 what has happened is that you proably wiped the disk with the bootloader/uefi-partition totally clean
[13:54] <EriC^^> ok boo tit and type "sudo parted -ls | nc termbin.com 9999" in the live usb
[13:57] <qwebirc95665> nc getaddrinfos for host termbin.com port 9999 name or service not known. Warning not all space available to /dev/sdb appears to be ised, you can fix the GPT to use all space
[13:58] <qwebirc95665> and now it tried to boot into ubuntu
[13:59] <qwebirc95665> now i am back in emerency mode
[14:00] <EriC^^> qwebirc95665: get internet connection on th elive usb
[14:01] <qwebirc95665> does emergency mode support wifi?
[14:04] <paolo-pr> hello. Sorry for the off-topic.  How do you call, in English,  something that tunes shapes?   "shapes tuner"   or "shape tuner" ?
[14:53] <rory> paolo-pr: not appropriate here. try #ubuntu-offtopic. It's "shape tuner" though.
[14:55] <Guest28735> Hi,
[14:55] <coz_> hey
[14:55] <Guest28735> Got a problem on 19.10 with visudo. %sudo   ALL=(ALL:ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL doesn't work.
[14:55] <Guest28735> Any tips?
[14:56] <Guest28735> ( It's not proceeded by anything )
[14:57] <coz_> Guest28735, somone here does I am sure, I cant help with that issue, sorry. Just stk around ")ic
[14:57] <rory> Guest28735: I think you have to log out and in for it to work
[14:57] <Guest28735> coz_: will do. thx.
[14:57] <coz_> no problem
[14:57] <Guest28735> rory: I've rebooted.
[14:58] <rory> Guest28735: sudo usermod -a -G sudo $USER
[14:58] <Guest28735> rory: uid=1000(me) gid=1001(me) groups=1001(me),4(adm),24(cdrom),27(sudo),30(dip),46(plugdev),117(lpadmin),127(docker),1000(sambashare)
[14:59] <Guest28735> rory: I am in the sudo group from the begining.
[15:16] <qwebirc95665> i just wrote an iso image on a usb stick, now it is read only, how can i change that?  i tried remounting but:
[15:16] <qwebirc95665> root@root:~# mount --options=remount,rw /media/myros/Qubes-R4.0.1-x86_64/
[15:16] <qwebirc95665> mount: /media/root/Isoimage: cannot remount /dev/sdb1 read-write, is write-protected.
[15:20] <Guest28735> I belive I may have fixed the strange sudo issue by allowing write and adding NOPASSWD: line to 10-installer file in /etc/sudoers.d .
[16:08] <Guest28735> Xorg is eating 99 cpu %. What's wrong?
[16:08] <Guest28735> I am using 19.10. On the same version on Kubuntu this wasn't an issue so I guess it's something gnome related.
[16:09] <Guest28735> Strange thing: it drops when I stop playing youtube video.
[16:10] <Guest28735> One I play it again I am getting ~ 40% instantly on windowed and 99% on fullscreen.
[16:11] <Guest28735> +the Web Content ( thx firefox ) around 40% so the cpu is sweating like a pig in souna. Not cool.
[16:19] <ioria> Guest28735, what's your cpu ?
[16:32] <elias_a> Where do pigs go to sauna (not souna) asks a Finn... :)
[16:32] <elias_a> Guest28735: All cores or just one?
[16:53] <Guest28735> elias_a: ah, been in Helsinki once and one can't stand more the 1 minute after the locals get into the souna and start to cranck the heat. If it's consuming 99% I would say it sits on a single core thou not sure. Any way to check in real time ( some top-kung-fu ) ?
[16:56] <elias_a> Guest28735: Press key 1 while running top.
[16:58] <Guest28735> elias_a: I know that. It shows per cpu load but I don't think it displays if a process is ustilizing one or more core if it's > 100% . Is it even possible ( or probable ) to use > 100% on a desktop and utilize two cores simultaneously?
[16:58] <Guest28735> elias_a: ( got only 2 cores by the way )
[17:02] <elias_a> Guest28735: This might be of help: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/146085/top-command-on-multi-core-processor
[17:03] <elias_a> Guest28735: What processor is that? And are you using standard Ubuntu?
[17:04] <Guest28735> elias_a: ah, tried the "irix" mode and got only one core so I guess it doesn't use more. I am using standard 19.10 desktop and the process is Xorg ( root is owner ).
[17:16] <elias_a> Guest28735: If it is an old processor that might be the load you get using present desktop.
[17:19] <Guest28735> elias_a: it's not cutting edge - i5-2520M ( x220 connected to egpu & external display ). But I do think thats cpu usage - I can see temp spikes along the Xorg process usage peaks.
[17:20] <torontoyes> on ubuntu bionic beaver.. do I need to use snapd to instal "jq and aws-cli"
[17:27] <ncuxo> Hello everybody
[17:27] <ncuxo> Do I need something special except wine to run 3ds max and autocad
[17:28] <elias_a> Guest28735: I cannot think of any reason for that behaviour.
[17:34] <Guest28735> elias_a: k, thanks for the input nontheless.
[17:36] <markweston> Hello. On Ubuntu 18.04.3 (LTS release, fresh install), the netbeans package is completely and utterly broken. Steps to reproduce: 1. Instll netbeans. 2. Create new default package. 3. See error: "unable to locate java.lang".
[17:37] <rfm> torontoyes, awscli is in bionic/universe as a deb.  I don't know what "jq" is, can't help there.
[17:51] <dngray[m]> is there a way to have a dark shell but also HighContrast on ie: ie https://i.imgur.com/fYSylAk.jpg high contrast is disabled HighContrastInverse set and https://i.imgur.com/L7hsyAr.png high contrast is enabled, HighContrast is set. I want the HighContrastInverted theme, but i want the Dark shell
[17:51] <dngray[m]> if i turn high contrast on, everything goes black on white, if I disable it everything goes black on white
[17:52] <lotuspsychje> !themes | dngray[m]
[17:52] <dngray[m]> if I change Applications in Gnome tweak tool to be HighContrastInverse I lose the dark theme on the shell
[17:52] <lotuspsychje> dngray[m]: im using yaru-dark
[17:54] <lotuspsychje> dngray[m]: you could try to check in dconf-editor
[17:54] <dngray[m]> yeah i think i might have to do that
[17:54] <dngray[m]> seems that inverse skin is somehow tied to the HIgh Contrast toggle
[17:55] <dngray[m]> the person I am setting this up for requires black background, or dark as possible theme
[17:55] <dngray[m]> tbh i think it would be better to have a HighContrastInverse scheme for the shell too
[17:55] <torontoyes> jq is used to parse json files
[17:56] <dngray[m]> lotuspsychje: maybe the solution would be for me to make a shell theme
[18:06] <dngray[m]> yeah for some reason i can't use Yaru-dark shell with HighContrastInverse
[18:09] <markweston> so yeah netbeans does not work on ubuntu
[18:12] <AngelKde> markweston,  https://askubuntu.com/questions/1032030/netbeans-does-not-start-on-fresh-ubuntu-18-04-installation/1032096
[18:19] <dngray[m]> ah seems what i want is this https://www.linuxuprising.com/2019/10/how-to-get-dark-gnome-shell-menus-and.html
[18:21] <lotuspsychje> ah, the extensions, good to know
[18:21] <truexfan81> i've got a problem but i'm not sure this is the right place to ask for help with it, because it could also be a #mpv or #pulseaudio problem, so i'm not really sure where to ask for help
[18:23] <truexfan81> i'm on ubuntu 19.10, trying to get mpv to bitstream audio over hdmi to my av receiver, result is no audio and a few errors in the terminal output, which is why i say it could be mpv or pulseaudio
[19:07] <UndefinedIsNotAF> What is better plasma or gnome? thanks
[19:10] <compdoc> gnome, but i use mate
[19:17] <laerlingSAP> Good morning. Why does 'apt-cache rdepends x' list not only packages that depend on x, but also packages that break x and so on? That doesn't make any sense.
[19:17] <laerlingSAP> E. g.: procps breaks open-vm-tools (<= (...)), but apt-cache rdepends open-vm-tools lists procps among others.
[19:37] <alextee> hi, do ubuntu xx.04 packages generally work in xx.10, or do you need to make separate packages?
[19:41] <mahdi_ja> hi all

[19:59] <BigBrothyr> how do I undo un/decorate? is there a key combination?
[20:03] <BigBrothyr> found it. alt-space brings up the window options menu to undo it.
[20:47] <solsTiCe> hi. so Ihave my windows vbox VM that is hammering my hdd (2nd drive). and chromium is unresponsive. wtf ! I always hated snap but thit is one more reason to hate it. I naver had problem with the old way using package. why is that f*** snap is unresponsive under heavy I/O ? and my /home is a bcache ...
[20:48] <solsTiCe> is there any PPA with package for chromium ?
[20:48] <solsTiCe> I am heading to building my own chromium package. f***
[21:05] <solsTiCe> oh wait. I have a better idea. I will ditch ubuntu and get back to archlinux. bye bye ubuntu
[23:48] <fbrier> I tried adding twa to the loader.conf, but it did not work. Do I need to install the twa driver? Where would I get it? Thank you.
[23:50] <fbrier> The boot process shows the 3Ware BIOS executing, and lspci shows the 3Ware card, but kvpm doesn't show the drives,
