| Dexx1_ | Hey folks. How do I fix this when trying to 'apt update'? E: The repository 'http://ppa.launchpad.net/cybre/elementaryplus/ubuntu bionic Release' does not have a Release file. — Full output: https://pastebin.com/raw/VMJNDcsC | 00:02 |
|---|---|---|
| Bashing-om | Decobus: You don't. See:http://ppa.launchpad.net/cybre/elementaryplus/ubuntu/dists/ ; Talk to the PPA maintainer as last supported release shows xenial. | 00:04 |
| ChiLLabiS | Xenial is EOL right? | 00:05 |
| Dexx1_ | Bashing-om - how do I fix that? | 00:05 |
| ChiLLabiS | !eol Dexx1_ | 00:05 |

| ubottu | Dexx1_: End-Of-Life is when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop. Make sure to update Ubuntu before it goes EOL so you get updates promptly for newly-discovered security vulnerabilities. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOL and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more info. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 00:06 |
| ryuo | ChiLLabiS: no it's not, not for all flavors. | 00:06 |
| Dexx1_ | ChiLLabiS: Right, if it's EOL, shouldn't it be removed automatically? Or do I need to do that? If so, how? | 00:06 |
| ChiLLabiS | Simply just wanted to help | 00:06 |
| Bashing-om | Dexx1_: As that PPA is not supported, remove the entry from your source list. | 00:08 |
| Dexx1_ | Bashing-om - k standby | 00:08 |
| Bashing-om | Dexx1_: Here to help :) | 00:09 |
| Dexx1_ | Bashing-om: On /etc/apt/sources.list, correct? | 00:10 |
| ChiLLabiS | Or in /etc/apt/source.list.d | 00:10 |
| Bashing-om | Dexx1_: As 3rd party I would expect in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ directory. | 00:11 |
| Dexx1_ | Bashing-om / ChiLLabiS: Am I doing: rm -rf /etc/apt/sources.list.d/cybre-ubuntu-elementaryplus-xenial.list ? | 00:12 |
| ChiLLabiS | update after | 00:12 |
| Bashing-om | Dexx1_: Presently now,can not say -show us 'cat /etc/issue' . | 00:13 |
| Dexx1_ | ChiLLabiS: To confirm, that's the correct command, right? | 00:13 |
| ChiLLabiS | sudo apt update | 00:14 |
| ChiLLabiS | test that | 00:14 |
| ChiLLabiS | Sorry for buttin' in Bashing-om | 00:15 |

| Osmodivs | Hello, I have Ubuntu 18.04.3. Windows to is not showing in my GRUB menu, I can see the disk in Gnome-disks, but Grub-customizer does not see it. Anyway, in the command line I can see: hd0,msdos1 (unknown), hd1,msdos1 (my HDD), hd2,gpt2 (my music HDD) hd3,gpt4 (Windows, I guess) hd3,gpt3, hd3,gpt2, hd3,gpt1. I am assuming the hd3 is Windows because of the other 3 gpt*(partitions?) and see them like /dev/sdb1-4, So, I edited /etc/gru | 00:51 |
| Osmodivs | online tutorials suggested) menuentry "Windows 10 (on /dev/sdb2)" {insmod part_msdos1 insmod ntfs setroot=`(hd3,gpt2)' chainloader +1 | 00:51 |
| Osmodivs | } | 00:51 |
| Osmodivs | and i get this in the terminal: https://pastebin.com/SKUxAQDa | 00:55 |
| Osmodivs | I know that if I reboot I will not be able to login, so, is there a way to fix this? | 00:57 |
| tomreyn | "Grub-customizer" is not a software that is supported here. to make a windows installation which is installed using the smae boot mode (uefi vs legacy bios) show up on grub menu, you just need to install os-prober. | 00:58 |
| tomreyn | your first message was cut off (due to irc line length limits) at "So, I edited /etc/gru". | 00:59 |
| tomreyn | the fact that you have an msdos partition table on hd0 and hd1 but gpt partition tables on hd2 and hd3 makes me think that you *may* have installed ubuntu in a different boot mode than windows | 01:01 |
| tomreyn | (but ot be able to chainload they need ot be installed in the same mode) | 01:01 |
| Osmodivs | tomreyn: 18:51:16 - Osmodivs: […] So, I edited /etc/grub.d/40_custom and added these lines (like | 01:02 |
| Osmodivs | 18:51:16 - Osmodivs: online tutorials suggested) menuentry "Windows 10 (on /dev/sdb2)" {insmod part_msdos1 insmod ntfs setroot=`(hd3,gpt2)' chainloader +1 | 01:02 |
| Osmodivs | 18:51:16 - Osmodivs: } | 01:02 |
| Osmodivs | tomreyn: "They need to be installed in the same mode" so, that means they both need to be UEFI? | 01:03 |
| Osmodivs | os-prober does not detect the Windows disk | 01:04 |
| tomreyn | Osmodivs: so ubuntu is currently able to boot right? | 01:17 |
| tomreyn | if so, what does this say? echo -n 'This system booted via: '; [ -d /sys/firmware/efi ] && echo UEFI || echo BIOS | 01:17 |
| Osmodivs | This system booted via: BIOS | 01:18 |
| tomreyn | so that's how ubuntu was installed and needs to boot in on your system currently, in bios mode, | 01:18 |
| tomreyn | now do you know which mode you installed windows in? | 01:18 |
| tomreyn | afaik windows 10 can only be installed in uefi mode | 01:19 |
| Osmodivs | Ubuntu can boot, but Windows is not showing in GRUB, and I don't remember how did I installed Windows | 01:19 |
| Osmodivs | tomreyn: well, I guess I installed Windows in UEFI mode, is there a way to fix this? | 01:20 |
| Osmodivs | do I need to reinstall Ubuntu in UEFI mode? | 01:20 |
| tomreyn | if so, yes, this would be the easiest | 01:20 |
| Osmodivs | hm... | 01:21 |
| Osmodivs | how do I install an UEFI mode in a LiveUSB? | 01:21 |
| tomreyn | the ubuntu installer supports either mode. you need to boot it in uefi mode, which you need to instruct your mainboard firmware to do. | 01:22 |
| Osmodivs | OK. But, after that I will need to reinstall, Windows, eh? | 01:23 |
| tomreyn | usually uefi firmware provides both a way for defining in which order devices will be booted from, this would also list a usb stick which has been attached by the time the computer was powered up. | 01:24 |
| tomreyn | you may also have a boot (override) menu which can override the default boot order just once | 01:24 |
| Osmodivs | tomreyn: Thats the weird part, it does not show in the BIOS menu, | 01:25 |
| Osmodivs | let me try and reinstall Ubuntu in UEFI mode and see what happens | 01:25 |
| tomreyn | unless you deleted the efi system partition which the windows boot loader was installed on, or have rearranged disks or sone anything else windows cannot handle, you should be able to continue booting windows in uefi mode (assuming that it was installed in uefi mode) | 01:25 |
| tomreyn | s/sone/done/ | 01:25 |
| tomreyn | some, especially older, mainboard firmwares lack support for booting from usb in uefi mode. but this is quite rare. | 01:26 |
| tomreyn | make sure you created a standard ubuntu installer media, so it will support uefi booting. | 01:27 |
| tomreyn | also, make sure you understand how uefi booting works quite differently from bios booting, and be aware of ubuntu bug 1396379 | 01:29 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 1396379 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) "installer uses first EFI system partition found even when directed otherwise" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1396379 | 01:29 |
| Osmodivs | My MoBo is recent, is the ASUS B350 Plus, | 01:30 |
| tomreyn | and its firmware is, too? | 01:30 |
| tomreyn | journalctl -b | grep 'DMI:' | 01:30 |
| Osmodivs | yeah, updated a few days ago | 01:30 |
| Osmodivs | tomreyn: dic 24 18:14:53 Djiin-Mk-IV kernel: DMI: System manufacturer System Product Name/PRIME B350-PLUS, BIOS 5220 09/12/2019 | 01:30 |
| tomreyn | latest version is Version 5220 2019/09/24 | 01:31 |
| tomreyn | looks good | 01:31 |
| tomreyn | so it's just a matter of proper configuration, i guess | 01:31 |
| tomreyn | this looks like a good guide for setting up dual boot (probably too late now if you already can't boot into windows): https://askubuntu.com/questions/1031993/how-to-install-ubuntu-18-04-alongside-windows-10 | 01:35 |
| tomreyn | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot is outdated, but the preparatory steps are relevant. | 01:35 |
| tomreyn | note that you should still make the windows configuration changes discussed in the askubuntu.com article if you'll be able to regain access to windows. | 01:37 |

| sethkush | I'm using 19.10 btw | 06:54 |
| ZaZaGX | i have never used 19.10 | 06:56 |
| tomreyn | your logs should say, journalctl -b | 07:05 |
| tomreyn | on a desktopm normally what you'll see is that systemd-networkd checs whether it's supposed to manage it. if it isn't, it says so. then network-manager checks whether it is supposed to, and whether there is a legacy configuration in /etc/network/interfaces, and if there isn't it'll configure any NICs according to the existing profiles. | 07:08 |

| knightwise | If i wanted to create a file based on a variable (like "date" or some other variable in a batch file) how do i do that ? | 08:42 |
| tomreyn | use date +%s (unix epoch, seconds since 01/01/1970) | 08:49 |
| tomreyn | alternatively, if oyu just need the day: date --rfc-3339=date | 08:50 |
| tomreyn | (effectively the same as date +%Y-%m-%d ) | 08:51 |
| tomreyn | knightwise: ^ more help on such commands is also available in channel #bash | 08:51 |
| EriC^^ | knightwise: there's no variable for date in bash (not batch), you'd need to use a nested shell command such as touch "/path/to/$(date +%s)" , as for variables you can do touch "/path/to/$myvariable" to create a file | 08:57 |

| Ether_Man | Hi. I'm running 18.04 and set up a 4 node ceph cluster. I'm trying to enable the dashboard but can't get it working. 'ceph mgr module ls' does list the module as enabled, but 'ceph mgr services' does not have any listed instances.

I've tried disabling and reenabling the module again but still no entry in services, and ofc, | 13:09 |
| Ether_Man | not listening on any port for it either. Is there anything else I need to do that's ubuntu specific for it? (as in, that differs between ubuntu repo and the official ceph instructions | 13:09 |

| hggdh | shibboleth: on my bionic, both libpulse0 and libpulse-dev are at version 1:11.1-1ubuntu7.4 | 15:37 |
| shibboleth | yeah, try the following: apt-get update | 15:37 |
| shibboleth | apt-cache show libpulse-dev | 15:38 |
| shibboleth | not depends on libpulse0 version | 15:38 |
| shibboleth | note | 15:38 |
| shibboleth | then apt-cache show libpulse0 | 15:38 |
| shibboleth | libpulse-dev deps on libpulse0 7.4 yet libpulse 7.5 has replaced it | 15:39 |
| shibboleth | which means anyone wanting to install/compile against anything depending on pulseaudio will be in the poor house until this is fixed | 15:40 |
| shibboleth | i get that 'tis x-mas but this has been the case for well three days now | 15:41 |
| shibboleth | and, seeing how pulseaudio isn't exactly "universe" (default since... ever) i was hoping for some less-than-divine intervention at some point :) | 15:42 |
| shibboleth | anyone who already has ubuntu-desktop installed will get by for now but anyone installing form "live" media or installing stuff on top of "-server" won't egt very far | 15:44 |
| shibboleth | from | 15:44 |

| shibboleth | yeah, you did it in the wrong order | 15:45 |
| hggdh | shibboleth: which order should I do it? | 15:46 |
| shibboleth | you installed libpulse0 from non-borked indexes | 15:46 |
| hggdh | ? | 15:46 |
| shibboleth | clean container->apt-get update | 15:46 |
| shibboleth | apt-get install libpulse-dev | 15:46 |
| shibboleth | or, from any point in time: | 15:46 |
| shibboleth | apt-get update | 15:46 |
| shibboleth | apt-cache show libpulse0 | 15:46 |
| shibboleth | apt-cache show libpulse-dev | 15:47 |
| shibboleth | note that libpulse0 will be 1:11.1-1ubuntu7.5 but libpulse-dev will depend on 1:11.1-1ubuntu7.4 | 15:47 |
| hggdh | OK. jusrt re-created the container. apt update, then apt install libpulse-dev. After install completed, both libpulse0 and libpulse-dev are at 7.4 | 15:50 |
| hggdh | shibboleth: do you have -proposed enabled? | 15:50 |
| shibboleth | no, i don't have privs to edit apt-sources on this dev box | 15:50 |

| retentiveboy | Selecting the "Linux Firmware Update" boot option on my DELL XPS15 is leading to the BIOS diagnostic program, not the firmware update. Weird. | 18:08 |

| ukiyo-eh | corshmock: That doesn't seem to work. I searched and the only option is to install Cinnamon workspaces from the software shop. I did and it doesn't seem to do anything. | 18:14 |

| Vivit | Got a real puzzler on my hands; the OS doesn't seem to want to use the driver for my wifi device | 18:40 |
| Vivit | In "Software & Updates" under the "Additional Drivers" tab, the entry for the device has its radio button set to "Do not use this device" | 18:43 |
| Vivit | and it's stuck there | 18:44 |
| sixwheeledbeast | broadcom? | 18:45 |
| Vivit | When I set the radio button to the option to use the (proprietary) driver and click "Apply Changes", it says "Applying changes" for a moment while a bar fills up, and then the radio button flips back to "Do not use this device" | 18:45 |
| Vivit | yes, Broadcom | 18:45 |
| sixwheeledbeast | They can be a pain sometimes. i would check the wiki to see if your card is compatible with the driver. | 18:46 |
| Vivit | It was working just fine until last night | 18:46 |
| sixwheeledbeast | oh | 18:46 |
| sixwheeledbeast | lspci -nn | grep -i network may help work out which drivers are compatible. | 18:51 |
| Vivit | Is there a way to manually enable the driver without using the "Software & Updates" application? | 18:51 |
| sixwheeledbeast | modprobe them | 19:00 |
| Vivit | How do I determine the module name | 19:04 |
| Vivit | The apt package is called "bcmwl-kernel-source" | 19:05 |
| Vivit | Is that also the name of the module? | 19:05 |
| sixwheeledbeast | That's the closed source drivers maybe "wl" or "broadcom-sta". I'd run through the firmware-b43-installer package myself if your card is supported. | 19:08 |
| dmw_ | hey. i'm on ubuntu 19.04 and can't upgrade for now. any animation whatsoever in firefox causes gnome-shell process CPU usage to explode, and UI is horribly laggy regardless. killing gnome-shell and starting metacity, the laptop feels like it's really from this century | 19:31 |
| dmw_ | is there some way to make metacity the default, or any tips on dealing with whatever insanity is going on with (presumably) compositing in gnome-shell? i simply dont need it and it destroys the machine | 19:32 |

| shibboleth | i was able to resolve the libpulse0 "phantom version" leading to non-existent apt dependency issues by proxying some cached apt indexes and manually installing 1:11.1-1ubuntu7.4 over 7.5 | 20:18 |
| Osmodivs | I have Ubuntu 18.04.3 and I get this message when I try to setup my printer: "Sorry! The system printing service doese't seem to be available" | 20:25 |
| Osmodivs | I unistalled CUPS and installe CUPS fron source, and still nothing | 20:25 |
| sixwheeledbeast | systemctl status cups ? | 20:26 |
| TheWild | hello | 20:27 |
| TheWild | what's assigned to Shift+Alt+S? | 20:27 |
| Vivit | sixwheeledbeast: the "apt show" for that package says that it "downloads and installs the firmware needed by the b43 kernel driver". That sounds like a problem, given that I can't connect to the internet in the first place | 20:28 |

| sixwheeledbeast | Vivit: no even via lan? | 20:28 |
| Vivit | Nope | 20:28 |

| Osmodivs | now I can see some printers... | 20:30 |
| Vivit | I think the drivers are installed and the issue is that I can't enable them | 20:31 |
| sixwheeledbeast | Yer I have had similar issues with broadcom wifi cards in laptops, it was always down to the bcmwl | 20:32 |
| sixwheeledbeast | Something must be conflicting with it | 20:35 |
| Vivit | What sort of something? | 20:36 |
| sixwheeledbeast | I am assuming another module "sudo modprobe -r b43 ssb wl" then " sudo modprobe wl" do you have a wifi on/off button? | 20:37 |
| SimonNL | Vivit: connect using you phone tether the wifi connection | 20:37 |
| sixwheeledbeast | You could always download any packages and use dpkg -i | 20:38 |
| sixwheeledbeast | download on another device that is | 20:38 |
| Vivit | "FATAL: Module wl not found." | 20:41 |
| sixwheeledbeast | pretty sure wl is the bcmwl module | 20:42 |
| Vivit | That's in response to # modprobe -r b43 ssb wl, # sudo modprobe wl says "FATAL: Module not found in directory /lib/modules/4.15.0-72-lowlatency" | 20:43 |
| Vivit | That's in response to # modprobe -r b43 ssb wl, # sudo modprobe wl says "FATAL: Module not found in directory /lib/modules/4.15.0-72-lowlatency". I get the same message for "bcmwl". | 20:43 |
| sixwheeledbeast | modprobe b43 ? | 20:44 |
| SimonNL | any of those drivers installed ? | 20:45 |
| Vivit | that did something -- verbose mode prints a bunch of "insmods" | 20:45 |
| jeremy31 | Vivit: Is it connected to internet? | 20:45 |
| Vivit | SimonNL: I believe so; my wifi was working just fine until last night | 20:46 |
| Vivit | jeremy31: nope, the laptop has no ethernet port | 20:46 |
| jeremy31 | Vivit: is anything blocked, see terminal> rfkill list | 20:47 |
| Vivit | Doesn't look like it | 20:48 |
| jeremy31 | vivit just post the 14e4 number from these terminal results and tell me kernel driver in use> lspci -nnk | grep -iA3 net | 20:52 |
| Vivit | Okay, I think I found a clue: $ apt show bcmwl-kernel-source prints the lines "Conflicts: bcmwl-modaliases" and "Replaces: bcmwl-modaliases" | 20:52 |
| Vivit | jeremy31: "[14e4:43a]", "Kernel driver in use: bcma-pci-bridge" | 20:53 |
| jeremy31 | Vivit: any result from terminal for> locate wl.ko | 20:55 |
| Vivit | Four paths, each in the form "/lib/modules/4.15.0-$n-$suffix/kernel/drivers/pwm/pwm-twl.ko", where $n is either "70" or "72" and $suffix is either "generic" or "lowlatency" | 20:59 |
| jeremy31 | Vivit: so no results with just wl.ko? | 21:01 |
| Vivit | No. | 21:01 |
| jeremy31 | what does it show for> dpkg -l | grep dkms | 21:02 |
| Vivit | er | 21:02 |
| jeremy31 | does it show "ii dkms " on one line | 21:02 |
| Vivit | yes | 21:03 |
| Vivit | with way too much whitespace | 21:03 |
| jeremy31 | Check> dkms status | 21:03 |
| Vivit | Nothing | 21:03 |
| jeremy31 | Vivit: copy http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/multiverse/b/broadcom-sta/broadcom-sta-dkms_6.30.223.271-8ubuntu0.1_all.deb and put it on a USB drive and put it on the desktop on Ubuntu, then double click the file | 21:05 |
| Vivit | What is it that gnome does when you double-click a .deb again? | 21:06 |
| jeremy31 | It should install it using the software center | 21:07 |
| jeremy31 | or you can use terminal> cd Desktop && sudo dpkg -i broadcom-sta-dkms_6.30.223.271-8ubuntu0.1_all.deb | 21:08 |
| Vivit | jeremy31: done. Now dkms status prints "broadcom-sta, 6.30.223.271, 4.15.0-72-lowlatency, x86_64: installed" | 21:35 |
| jeremy31 | Vivit: do results change for> lspci -nnk | grep -iA3 net | 21:36 |
| === akko is now known as stallman | ||
| Vivit | Yes. "[14e4:43a]" -> "[14e4:43a0]" | 21:44 |
| jeremy31 | Vivit: kernel driver in use? | 21:45 |
| Vivit | It also says "Kernel modules: bcma, wl", when I believe it just said "Kernel modules: bcma" before | 21:45 |
| jeremy31 | Vivit: result for> mokutil --sb-state | 21:45 |
| Vivit | "Kernel drive in use" is unchanged | 21:45 |
| Vivit | "This system doesn't support Secure Boot" | 21:46 |
| Vivit | What next? Reboot? | 21:48 |
| jeremy31 | Vivit: haven't rebooted since installing that? If not, reboot | 21:48 |
| === stallman is now known as akko | ||
| Vivit | Aaand on reboot, I'm connected to the wifi before even logging in | 21:51 |
| Vivit | Thanks, jeremy31! | 21:51 |
| jeremy31 | Vivit: that is good | 21:52 |
| Vivit | do you have any idea why it may have stopped working? | 21:58 |
| jeremy31 | Vivit: not actually as nothing was in previous results for dkms status | 22:00 |
| steve | why are there no mirror links for downloading here? https://packages.ubuntu.com/eoan/armhf/libc6/download | 22:10 |

| hggdh | steve: seems to work only for AMD64 and i386 | 22:18 |
| steve | hggdh yep | 22:19 |
| hggdh | steve: IIRC, there is a different archive for ARM (but I do not remember the site name) | 22:23 |
| steve | thanks. I'm finding links on the debian package search\ | 22:24 |
