| JarvisSaves | hello all - anyone running 19.10 on a fairly new Asus laptop? | 01:48 |
| JarvisSaves | I'm running an asus zenbook pro duo with 19.10 and all runs great with one main exception, can't find way to change the screen brightness, using the function keys or changing with the menu at the top right shows the slider, but it doesn't change the screen brightness. Any ideas on what could be wrong. | 01:51 |
| JarvisSaves | Also, can't get an answer from the Ubuntu web forum | 01:52 |
| JarvisSaves | Any input or direction would be greatly appreciated. | 01:53 |
| noodlecan | hello! I have my nameservers defined in netplan. When i run netplan --debug apply my nameservers are listed correctly. On each reboot dns fails and I have to run netplan apply again. ON boot before i run netplan apply, if I run resolvctl status my nameservers are still correctly defined, but dns does not work. Any ideas what I can try? | 02:05 |
| === zbenjamin_ is now known as zbenjamin | ||
| noodlecan | I am running 19.10 | 02:06 |
| JarvisSaves | Thanks for responding nood...do you have any issues controlling your screen brightness | 02:06 |
| noodlecan | also i have networkmanager disabled in systemd and am using networkd as my renderer. JarvisSaves, my server is headless | 02:08 |
| noodlecan | netplan is correctly publishing nameservers to /run/systemd/resolve/resolv.conf. I have tried enabling and disabling DNSStubListener with no change between reboots | 02:11 |
| subho99 | Hey guys, I have a R5 2500U APU. I'm having trouble booting up all 5.x kernels. At first I cuoldn't boot them at all. | 02:11 |
| subho99 | Then I added the boot parameters iommu=soft and idle=nomwait, I could work without random crashes. But whenever I put my device to sleep, on waking up the screen is always black and I need to do a force restart by pressing the power button. | 02:11 |
| subho99 | 4.19.x kernels are working fine | 02:12 |
| subho99 | Any suggestions? | 02:12 |
| retry | hey I just noticed I haven't gotten any updates since Dec 19th on any of my 'buntu systems. Am I worrying over nothing? | 02:17 |
| leftyfb | retry: What version are they? Also, if it's not broke, don't fix it. | 02:24 |
| noodlecan | it looks like "nameserver 127.0.0.53" is being stripped out of /etc/resolv.conf on boot. just manually adding it correct lookups. Is that functionality controlled by dnsmasq? | 02:24 |

| hnnerr63 | Hi everyone. Quick question. Has there been any updates for Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS since Dec 24? I haven't received any since that time. | 02:49 |
| damian | hey team, i've been having an issue with one of my servers for a while, it started after a few updates. 18.04.01 LTS. for some reason DNS just isn't working, whenever i attempt to ping/nslookup/wget it's returning generic unable to do a lookup | 02:53 |
| retry | hnnerr63, i basically asked same question | 02:53 |
| retry | didn't get much of a response | 02:53 |
| retry | 19th for me | 02:53 |
| hnnerr63 | @retry Ah ok.. thanks for that. | 02:53 |
| damian | i believe it's using netplan, i've checked the netplan configuration and nameservers look correct, even set them to Google public DNS to ensure | 02:53 |
| damian | i can do an nslookup with a manual server selected and it works as well | 02:54 |
| damian | i also have configuration in my /etc/network/interfaces for the interface, changing this doesn't have any effect on the issue either | 02:54 |
| matt|home | this is bothering me so much. i keep getting the generic "dvd source required to play file" whenever i try to play a DVD. i did everything to install the software, and it worked.. one 2 out of the 3 discs i have from the same box set. now the third disc just refuses to play -at all- . doesn't matter what player im using. can anyone explain this behavior :\ | 02:54 |
| matt|home | current stable version, all software up to date | 02:54 |
| matt|home | anyone.. | 03:04 |
| Bashing-om | matt|home: Have you seen: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs ? | 03:06 |
| matt|home | yes. | 03:06 |
| matt|home | i did all the instructions. | 03:06 |
| matt|home | after doing all of that, like i said, 2 of the 3 discs i have on this particular box set were able to play. the third one does not. | 03:07 |
| matt|home | plays just fine in my other dvd player. | 03:07 |
| Bashing-om | matt|home: Sorry; only thought thatI had:( | 03:08 |
| matt|home | sorry, im really sick and cranky. that was mean. | 03:09 |
| matt|home | if it's not a region issue and i have the stupid libdvd stuff installed, what could be the issue | 03:09 |
| matt|home | well. that worked. i just kept trying to open the file and it just worked aftera while. god knows why | 03:13 |
| Bashing-om | matt|home: :D | 03:14 |

| CarlFK | how do I force a package to reinstall? | 04:29 |
| CarlFK | to overwrite the binaries it installed. one seems to have gotten altered | 04:30 |
| ilvipero | there are a few ways to handle it. have you tried purging and then installing again? | 04:31 |
| CarlFK | I haven't tried anything yet. isnt' there a -reinstall or something ? | 04:31 |
| Bashing-om | CarlFK: Try ' sudo apt install --reinstall <package> ' . | 04:31 |
| CarlFK | yeah that. | 04:31 |
| ilvipero | you can also try: sudo apt-get purge applicationname && sudo apt-get install applicationname | 04:32 |
| pragmaticenigma | ilvipero, purging will delete any of the user's configurations. I would recommend that as a last thing to try if Bashing-om's suggestion fails | 04:34 |
| pragmaticenigma | ilvipero, When someone asks to reinstall, there's a good change they don't want to have to start over from scratch | 04:35 |
| ilvipero | yes, but good to keep as last resort, as if a configuration file is corrupted or triggers a bug, clearing it will most likely fix the issue. | 04:39 |
| ilvipero | next time I will be clearer, thanks for pointing that out | 04:40 |
| CarlFK | how do I re-download the .deb, because it seems to be broken: http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/7VX3NDMYw6/ | 04:41 |
| pragmaticenigma | CarlFK, You don't want to download the .deb... as that will interfere with apt's ability to track what is going on (and compound your current issue) | 04:44 |
| Bashing-om | CarlFK: Well, one can remove the deb from the /var/cache/apt/archives/ directory - or 'sudo apt clean to removeallofthem '. | 04:45 |
| CarlFK | pragmaticenigma: I want apt to do t and all that | 04:45 |
| pragmaticenigma | CarlFK, start with the following: "sudo apt clean all && sudo apt autoremove" | 04:46 |
| pragmaticenigma | Then try the previous reinstall command again. If that doesn't fix the issue, there is the option to run apt with its --fix-missing parameter. Though I need to read up on how to use that option. | 04:48 |
| CarlFK | thanks | 04:49 |
| CarlFK | that seemed to have fixed that problem | 04:53 |
| CarlFK | somehow .py file were png's of stars and other little cute icons | 04:53 |
| mrwendal | hi all | 04:57 |
| brendantcc | Hi mrwendal! | 04:58 |
| pragmaticenigma | CarlFK, not sure I understand what you mean there, but glad it seems things are back on the right track | 04:59 |
| mrwendal | brendantcc ;) , I have two identical hdd,. i know one is on its way out(about to die) but cant tell which. what can i use from terminal to find the bad one the faster the better(i assume unmounting and from terminal will be best for me re speed of checks-correct me if wrong please) | 05:02 |
| brendantcc | hm... | 05:03 |
| brendantcc | sadly I don't know of any CLI tools that could help you with this, but stick around, I'm sure of it someone else will be able to help you :) | 05:04 |
| mrwendal | cheers brendantcc much appreciated for your reply | 05:05 |
| brendantcc | no worries :) | 05:05 |
| CarlFK | pragmaticenigma: if you want to see.. this python code is a star.... https://veyepar.nextdayvideo.com/static/temp/AnsiballZ_apt_key.py | 05:06 |

| pragmaticenigma | !smart | mrwendal, there are tools to help with monitoring your disk's SMART status: | 05:09 |
| ubottu | mrwendal, there are tools to help with monitoring your disk's SMART status:: smart is Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology, a monitoring system for hard drives. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Smartmontools | 05:09 |
| ilvipero | mrwendal, I am sure the gnome disks can report the serial number of your hard disks. for CLI only, I think you can see the Serial Numbers in the /dev/disk/by-id folder | 05:11 |
| ilvipero | i will double check now and get back to you | 05:11 |
| mrwendal | ilvipero, ubottu pragmaticenigma thanks respectively im currently giving smartctl -a /dev/sdc1 | 05:13 |
| pragmaticenigma | ilvipero, the smartmontools will return the serial number as part of the report | 05:13 |
| mrwendal | it has serial number listed | 05:13 |
| ilvipero | yes confirmed you can see all your serial numbers in /dev/disk/by-id . it is in this format: diskname_serialnumbers | 05:15 |
| mrwendal | id like to run a selftest would that be done in the following way "smartctl -t /dev/sdc1" ? | 05:21 |
| Bashing-om | mrwendal: One runs the test on the device (sdc) not the partition. | 05:24 |
| mrwendal | Bashing-om, Thanks so much | 05:25 |
| mrwendal | this what i got before running test-if anyone see's something to troublesome please advise me | 05:26 |

| mrwendal | eg your terminal | 05:35 |
| KombuchaKip | mrwendal: https://pastebin.com/EpBdbqzE I've done all of the steps in reduction section up until sudo lvdisplay. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ResizeEncryptedPartitions#Reduce_an_encrypted_partition | 05:36 |

| KombuchaKip | mrwendal: Don't see that anywhere in the kern.log | 05:51 |
| mrwendal | assume your pastbin is verbatim will keep googling for ya-if any masters out there wanna help out jump in by all means | 05:51 |

| CarlenWhite | Feel kinda dumb just now realizing how useful a chroot is. | 05:59 |
| CarlenWhite | For building stuff that is. My laptop is primarily focused on everyday computing but occasionally I want to build something and what I get is package clutter. Seems like chroot will work around that by keeping it inside a location I can discard and recreate when needed. | 06:01 |

| bobdobbs | how do I take a screenshot while using plasma desktop? the printscreen button does nothing. | 06:04 |

| bobdobbs | lets see... | 06:08 |
| bobdobbs | the 'shift+printscreen' combo doesn't work. | 06:09 |
| bobdobbs | I'll try and find that hotkeys dialogue | 06:09 |

| bobdobbs | no, I can't find it | 06:11 |
| mrwendal | Settings or All Settings--> Global Shortcuts--> KDE Daemon (is this not doing it for you?-im not familiar with KDE are you running latest) | 06:15 |
| bobdobbs | mrwendal: turns out there's an app called 'spectacle'. I opened it from a terminal emulator | 06:21 |
| bobdobbs | It starts slowly and has a somewhat confusing UI | 06:22 |
| bobdobbs | but it did the trick in the end | 06:22 |
| mrwendal | im deep down a rabbithole atm downloading plasma will mount and then mess with it to see what works but from what i can tell you can make your own keycombo shortcuts and choose what program to carry it out | 06:24 |
| mrwendal | with spectical being one of them and i assumed the prog u mentioned is another 'flameshot | 06:25 |
| mrwendal | what verison you running champ | 06:25 |
| bobdobbs | mrwendal: which version of plasma? I'm not sure. Whichever one is in the default repos for 18.04 | 06:26 |
| bobdobbs | lets see if I can find out.. | 06:26 |
| mrwendal | bobdobbs, open terminal uname -a | 06:26 |

| bobdobbs | KDE Plasma Version: 5.12.9 | 06:28 |
| bobdobbs | plasma is quiet beautiful | 06:28 |
| bobdobbs | couple of drawbacks, like dolphin is really slow. | 06:29 |
| bobdobbs | But it looks really nice. | 06:29 |
| mrwendal | bloody hell tried to replicate the problem and on my keyboard Prt Scr worked with specticle straight out of box. Have you changed the keyboard bobdobbs? | 06:38 |
| mrwendal | language i mean | 06:38 |
| bobdobbs | huh, interesting | 06:39 |
| bobdobbs | I haven't changed anything, as far as I can recall | 06:40 |
| bobdobbs | I just installed plasma recently | 06:40 |
| bobdobbs | I do have synergy running. That accessess the keyboard, but doesn't change anything afaict | 06:40 |
| mrwendal | yo bobdobbs had any luck on ur end | 06:51 |
| mrwendal | i have found out how to get to the menu i mentioned earlier, can walk you through if u want | 06:52 |
| mrwendal | and then you can set your own shortcut combo | 06:52 |
| mrwendal | or at least know what its currently set to and what program its using | 06:53 |
| mrwendal | you still there bobdobbs | 07:02 |

| Sublim21 | clonezilla seems to be the recommended solution online, but i figured i'd ask here | 07:31 |
| Sublim21 | any help is appreciated | 07:32 |
| ducasse | clonezilla is a good option, sure | 07:32 |
| Sublim21 | ducasse, i never used it before. i just wanna make sure this is done 'right' | 07:34 |
| ducasse | Sublim21: clonezilla is a big project, well known and receives lots of testing | 07:36 |
| mouses | Sublim21: I also would highly recommend Clonezilla. There is a bit of a learning curve, but it's pretty user friendly and very powerful. | 07:42 |
| Sublim21 | mouses, ducasse, appreciate the comments. alright, im gonna try that. ill just perform a manual backup then try doing it that way | 08:08 |
| mouses | Sublim21: best of luck, feel free to shoot me a ping if you get lost somewhere with Clonezilla | 08:12 |
| mouses | the documentation is pretty good though | 08:13 |
| Sublim21 | mouses, will do. gotta download it, put it on flash usb, and whatnot. ill ping with any problems. thanks again | 08:23 |

| tomreyn | i'd trust firefox or chromium to do https properly and to keep those credentials safely more than a special purpose application. | 09:42 |
| tomreyn | it might not be as convenient to use, though. | 09:42 |
| Ublx | tomreyn: it's okay. thanks. very helpful. then i wont change anything. | 09:56 |

| ChiLLabiS | Hi! I'm on Ubuntu 18.04. Is it possible to install UbuntuStudio through apt? If so, how? | 12:46 |
| BluesKaj | ChiLLabiS, UbuntuStudio is a stand alone OS, just like any other ubuntu flavour | 12:48 |
| ChiLLabiS | So then it would work installing from apt then? | 12:50 |
| ChiLLabiS | I mean i can install Kubuntu-desktop on an standard Ubuntu | 12:50 |
| BluesKaj | the desktop, yes | 12:50 |
| ChiLLabiS | ok | 12:50 |
| BluesKaj | same goes for ubuntu studio | 12:50 |
| ioria | ChiLLabiS, if you want a 'full' ubuntustudio install, i suggest a new install (it uses lowlatency kernel and a lot of pkgs) | 12:51 |
| * BluesKaj assumes ChiLLabiS doesn't want to do a clean install | 12:53 | |
| ChiLLabiS | ioria: Okay, but isn't it some way i can install and test through apt first? before i choose a fresh install | 12:53 |
| ChiLLabiS | haha right on BluesKaj | 12:53 |
| tomreyn | you can also just switch to the low latency kernel and install ubuntustudio-desktop and the ubuntustudio backports PPA | 12:53 |
| ioria | ChiLLabiS, sure : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuStudio/PackageList | 12:53 |
| ioria | ChiLLabiS, ubuntustudio-desktop alone won't give you almost nothing new | 12:54 |
| tomreyn | there's also the #ubuntustudio IRC channel | 12:54 |
| tomreyn | ...as ChiLLabiS already found out. | 12:54 |
| ChiLLabiS | I've asked in #ubuntusudio, they're all doing something else instead of answering me on irc :( | 12:55 |
| william1 | Couldn't you run it in virtualbox or equivalent first? | 12:56 |
| tomreyn | you asked a different question there, though. amount and type of response can depend on the questions you ask. | 12:57 |
| william1 | Download the torrent from their website and roll with that in virtualbox/try out the OS there | 12:57 |
| ChiLLabiS | Thanks for the links ioria william1 ! I think i'll manage now. | 12:58 |
| ioria | ok | 12:58 |
| william1 | :) | 13:00 |
| ChiLLabiS | I think i just need the audio and plugin packages from Ubuntu Studio. | 13:01 |
| BluesKaj | then install ubuntustudio-audio | 13:08 |
| ChiLLabiS | Will do later after i buy a new soundcard. :) | 13:09 |
| BluesKaj | and ubuntustudio-audio-plugins | 13:09 |
| ChiLLabiS | just checking now before i buy anything | 13:10 |
| BluesKaj | ahh, just like graphics cards, one canspend mucho buckos on audio cards too | 13:11 |

| elphias | hello, i am trying to setup xchat in ubuntu 18.04 to use freenode.net and #ubuntu, but its talking about something called sasl and i cannot seem to figure it out even though i have googled it, can someone help me? | 13:45 |
| elphias | i hate this web based version of irc | 13:45 |
| jeremy31 | elphias: use hexchat instead | 13:49 |
| ioria | elphias, hexchat has in-built SASL support | 13:49 |
| elphias | ok, though i love my xchat XD, so i guess it's outdated? | 13:50 |
| jeremy31 | elphias: you might not notice any difference | 13:50 |
| ioria | elphias, idk your setup but i'am using xchat atm | 13:50 |
| mouses | elphias: xchat is not maintained anymore and you probably want to chance to a client that is still getting updates/security patches | 13:51 |
| elphias | i tried using xchat in ubuntu 18.04 but it gives me an sasl error that i can't figure out | 13:51 |
| mouses | s/chance/change | 13:52 |
| elphias | brb gonna try this hex chat | 13:53 |
| ChiLLabiS | Hi again! Would this work on standard Ubuntu? sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntustudio-ppa/backports | 13:53 |
| tomreyn | technically? yes. this ppa is supported in #ubuntustudio | 13:55 |
| ChiLLabiS | okok | 13:55 |
| elphias | well that took a bit of fanangling | 13:57 |
| elphias | i think i got it all setup right? does it look ok to you all? | 13:57 |
| elphias | it's been many years since i have been here, and i've got a few issues that i could really use help with | 13:58 |
| juanonymous | sorry. anyway, i wanted to install deluge on my vps running ubuntu 18.04 xenial. but it seems to not work, nobody in #deluge can help, im hoping that there is one here. | 13:58 |
| tomreyn | elphias: if it's about irc, please ask in #freenode , is it's about ubuntu, here's a good place. :) | 13:59 |
| elphias | one is an interesting issue with my asus laptop, cheese seems to be making my webcam video upside down, and i cannot seem to fix it | 13:59 |
| elphias | the other is about the video drivers and "artifacts" on my dual screen asus laptop system | 13:59 |
| elphias | i have my ubuntu system almost perfect, but i can't get a few things done, and need some help, so, i came here, which i am glad to see that #ubuntu is still here after like 8 years of not using it ^_^ | 14:00 |
| tomreyn | juanonymous: can clarify "does not work", since that's not going to enable anyone to help you out. error messages and a descrition of what you did and what happened and what should instead have happened are usually a good way to start analyzing a problem. | 14:01 |
| tomreyn | *can you | 14:01 |
| elphias | my first issue is with ubuntu's cheese camera application, everything is upside down, i have tried to fix using various howto's but to no avail, is there something i can do to right the image? | 14:02 |
| elphias | the laptop is an asus laptop (model number does not match the hardware....it's a franken top) | 14:03 |
| elphias | according to asus they stopped making this laptop at i5, with 8gb of ram, well the serial number says so, however it's running an i7 octa core with 16 gb of ram.....so model numbers are useless in this case | 14:04 |
| tomreyn | elphias: "lsusb" should provide further info on the webcam you have there. | 14:04 |
| elphias | tomreyn here's partial output of lsusb Bus 001 Device 003: ID 13d3:5122 IMC Networks 2M Integrated Webcam | 14:05 |
| elphias | i just don't know what to do, i've never had this problem in the 15 years i've used ubuntu | 14:05 |
| elphias | usually i don't need help, google is my friend, but this has me stumped | 14:06 |
| elphias | and before any of you start to help, let me pre thank you for taking the time out of what your doing to do so | 14:07 |
| tomreyn | elphias: can you close cheese, then run this from a terminal? export LIBV4LCONTROL_FLAGS=2 && LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libv4l/v4l1compat.so cheese | 14:07 |
| elphias | oddly it says now no device found | 14:08 |
| juanonymous | so i installed deluge, using the command sudo-apt get install deluge deluge-web after i run sudo apt-get update, the install was successful without any errors. on the webpage, it is saying that page could not be loaded or check proxy settings, deluge should run on port 8115, check ufw, it is ok, i even tried disabling firewall but it doesnt help either. | 14:09 |
| tomreyn | elphias: hmm, undo it with: unset LIBV4LCONTROL_FLAGS | 14:10 |
| juanonymous | i also tried using different browsers, from firefox, chrome, opera | 14:10 |
| elphias | oh wait, i had to use ubuntu's terminal not the cool-retro-terminal | 14:10 |
| elphias | now it's working, will that command perminantly fix the issue? | 14:10 |
| elphias | tomreyn here's the output of terminal in ubuntu pastbin | 14:12 |
| elphias | https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/mD3k2hKKn8/ | 14:12 |
| elphias | is there a way to commmit this change perminantly? | 14:12 |
| elphias | and thanks for helping ^_^ | 14:12 |
| tomreyn | elphias: no, it wont be permanent. to make it permanent for your user account, try this: echo "alias cheese='export LIBV4LCONTROL_FLAGS=2 && LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libv4l/v4l1compat.so cheese'">> ~/.bash_aliases | 14:13 |
| tomreyn | elphias: this will only make it work for cheese, though. if you need it rotated in general, a different approach may be better | 14:14 |
| elphias | tomreyn, i need it rotated in general, however the echo command did not seem to work | 14:15 |
| tomreyn | juanonymous: when you run nc -vv 127.0.0.1 8115 on a terminal, what does it report? | 14:15 |
| juanonymous | let me check | 14:15 |
| tomreyn | elphias: did not seem to work how? | 14:16 |
| tomreyn | elphias: i.e. what makes you think it did not work? | 14:16 |
| elphias | well i entered the echo command and there was no output just went back to the prompt, i then opened cheese and the image was still upside down | 14:16 |
| elphias | but when i enter the first commmand you gave me things work fine | 14:16 |
| elphias | the image is right side up and oriented correctly | 14:17 |
| elphias | the second command does no change | 14:17 |
| elphias | i even tried it as root | 14:17 |
| tomreyn | elphias: when you run a command on a terminal and there is no output as a result, it usually means that it succeeded. | 14:18 |
| elphias | yes i understand that, but in this case there was no change in cheese, when i opened it the image was still upside down | 14:19 |
| elphias | as if the command registered but isn't being excicuted | 14:19 |
| juanonymous | tomreyn: one question, should i run 127.0.0.1 8115 or should i use my vps ip? | 14:19 |
| tomreyn | elphias: please logout and login again. then try running cheese from a terminal and see whetehr webcam is then correct. also, please post the url this returns (can be done now): cat ~/.bash_aliases | nc termbin.com 9999 | 14:20 |
| tomreyn | juanonymous: 127.0.0.1 8115 first of all, oyu can try your public ip address next if this succeeds | 14:20 |
| elphias | ok getting ready to try now | 14:21 |
| elphias | brb | 14:21 |
| juanonymous | it fails to connect, connection refused | 14:25 |
| elphias | i'm back here's the output you wanted | 14:27 |
| elphias | https://termbin.com/zaze | 14:27 |
| elphias | there is no change to the camera | 14:27 |
| leftyfb | juanonymous: please read the instructions: https://dev.deluge-torrent.org/wiki/UserGuide/ThinClient#WebUI | 14:29 |
| tomreyn | elphias: did you run cheese from a temrinal or using the desktop shortcut? | 14:31 |
| elphias | tomreyn, there was no desktop shortcut created, i went into the app drawer and tried to use it from there | 14:32 |
| juanonymous | thanks | 14:32 |
| elphias | tomreyn, it's odd the first command seemed to work, the second command seemed to take, but nothing else is working with the camera as it should be | 14:33 |
| tomreyn | elphias: here's what i wrote earlier: "then try running cheese from a terminal and see whether webcam is then correct" | 14:33 |
| tomreyn | please run it from a terminal now. | 14:33 |
| elphias | tomreyn, when run from cli it works fine | 14:34 |
| elphias | i missed the terminal part | 14:34 |
| tomreyn | ok, so you need to edit the .desktop file then, i guess, let's see | 14:34 |
| juanonymous | thank you it's running now leftyfb | 14:35 |
| elphias | tomreyn, i would not know how to do that.....never had to tinker with this before | 14:35 |
| elphias | tomreyn, downloading skype now to see if things work there or are broken as well | 14:36 |
| tomreyn | elphias: the .desktop file is in /usr/share/applications/cheese.desktop but i just realized it does just run "cheese", which i guess mean the alias should have worked. | 14:36 |
| elphias | and who knows if discord works | 14:36 |
| tomreyn | elphias: yes, you should find out whether it needs a general change, that's good. | 14:37 |
| elphias | tomreyn, i got the cheese.desktop file open, do i make any changes there? and if so what? | 14:38 |
| tomreyn | i need to leave you there for a bit now, got to work on something else for a bit, sorry. the takeaway for now is that to run cheese you need to run it like this: export LIBV4LCONTROL_FLAGS=2 && LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libv4l/v4l1compat.so cheese | 14:38 |
| tomreyn | hopefully someone else can help in the meantime. | 14:38 |
| tomreyn | i read about this here https://askubuntu.com/questions/796082/how-to-fix-inverted-laptop-webcam-video | 14:39 |
| noodlecan | fixed it. Replaced the symlink to resolv.conf replacing /run/resolvconf/resolv.conf with /lib/systemd/resolv.conf. | 14:39 |
| tomreyn | elphias: see also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam/Troubleshooting | 14:40 |
| elphias | noodlecan, i will try that, how do i replace the symlink? is there a command for term or do i have to manually edit | 14:40 |
| tomreyn | elphias: i don't think noodlecan was talkig to you there. | 14:41 |
| noodlecan | lol, yeah i was replying back about dns resolution, netplan with systemd. | 14:42 |
| elphias | oh crap okies sorry | 14:42 |
| noodlecan | no worries. i wanted to make sure i added what i did in case anyone else runs into the same issue. | 14:43 |
| elphias | i know that tomreyn, is busy now, can anyone else help me fix my upside down cam issue? | 14:49 |
| lotuspsychje | elphias: did you try other cam software yet? | 14:49 |
| elphias | no, i perfer to use what comes with ubuntu, if i start the cam with the changes tomreyn had me make via cli, it works fine | 14:50 |

| elphias | lotuspsychje, i don't wanna install kde stuff on my ubuntu >.< i really don't like kde | 14:51 |
| elphias | i'd rather fix the issue not patch it with something else | 14:51 |
| lotuspsychje | elphias: the users choice, if you want to debug things, something you need to try things | 14:52 |
| elphias | i know, i just really really hate kde >.< | 14:54 |
| lotuspsychje | elphias: it wont install whole kde, and after testing you can purge packages.. | 14:56 |
| elphias | well before i go installing kde stuffs, let me test skype first | 14:57 |
| elphias | see if the same issue is there, then i have 2 other video related issues to tinker with if i can get help | 14:57 |
| === dijitol1 is now known as dijitol | ||
| elphias | odd kamoso crashed, it won't start, something about a missing dependancy or something | 15:04 |
| SimonNL | elphias, is your upside down image solved ? | 15:07 |
| elphias | SimonNL, testing now | 15:08 |
| elphias | SimonNL, after installing kamoso my video simply don't work at all now v.v | 15:11 |
| SimonNL | remove it then I suggest | 15:13 |
| multifractal | I have a shared drive between ubuntu 18.04 and win10, containing my mp3 collection. But on win10 the folder only lists artists A-H, and the rest don't appear to be there. And on Ubuntu all the folders are present. What is causing this? | 15:13 |
| akemhp | Hey i wanna test my joystick with jstest, however when i plug it, i can't see the device correctly: i got this: input: Microntek USB Joystick as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:14.0/usb1/1-2/1-2:1.0/0003:0079:0006.000F/input/input41 | 15:16 |
| akemhp | I think i find out. However i run into another issue, now... | 15:17 |
| rud0lf | akemhp: unrelated advice: you can install qjoypad to emulate keystrokes for a joystick buttons, good for games not supporting joystick | 15:18 |
| akemhp | rud0lf, I see there is also joy2key. | 15:18 |
| akemhp | I'll install qjoypad, thanks for the info. | 15:18 |
| rud0lf | you're welcome | 15:19 |
| akemhp | Now the problem i run into: "jstest is not fully compatible with your kernel. Unable to retrieve button map!" ... | 15:19 |
| rud0lf | maybe you need sudo? | 15:19 |
| lotuspsychje | rud0lf akemhp there seems to be a snap version too | 15:19 |
| rud0lf | i guess you need that with raw input device access | 15:19 |
| akemhp | I recompiled a kernel recently because i need the new drivers for my Wifi. | 15:19 |
| akemhp | Yea i used: sudo jstest /dev/usb/hiddev0 | 15:20 |
| akemhp | I'll see if i can compile jstest myself :/ maybe it will work with my kernel this way. | 15:21 |
| akemhp | I wonder if it's really hiddev0, because i also have an USB mouse in fact. | 15:22 |
| akemhp | I only have "hiddev0" in /dev/usb. | 15:22 |
| akemhp | In fact i must be trying with my mouse device, that's probably why it doesn't work. | 15:23 |
| akemhp | It works in fact i found the device was "/dev/input/by-id/usb-Microntek_USB_Joystick-joystick" | 15:26 |
| akemhp | But it's not displayed in dmesg when i plug my device, so i didn't know where to look, no need to recompile anything in fact. That's better :D | 15:27 |
| akemhp | Instead of that cryptic path /devices/pci000etc... | 15:28 |
| imi | hi. How do I choose an ubuntu compatible gaming machine? Can you recommend one? | 15:28 |
| akemhp | imi, You want to run Ubuntu only on that machine, or just as a secondary OS, and still play games on Windows on it? | 15:30 |
| akemhp | Dual boot i mean. | 15:30 |
| imi | dual boot | 15:30 |
| elphias | i removed that cam softwear for kde, my cam works again but it's still upside down, is there any fix for this? | 15:31 |
| imi | maybe even considering using Linux in a VM | 15:32 |
| akemhp | imi, If you run it in a VM only you can choose any brand it won't matter, only Windows support is needed. | 15:32 |
| imi | lol ok that would be the least favorable | 15:33 |
| akemhp | If i had to choose a gaming laptop for dual boot, i would probably look at HP gaming series because i had some good HPs/Ubuntu setups. | 15:33 |
| akemhp | But that's just me, i don't really know if the HP gaming are good or not, i just know they make some. | 15:34 |
| elphias_ | well that sucked | 15:34 |
| * elphias_ sighs "i don't think i'll ever get my cam running right | 15:35 | |
| akemhp | elphias_, I got upside/down screen issues, and sometimes just a reboot fixed the issue, but it would appear again sometimes for no reason. | 15:36 |
| compdoc | been a while, but Ive read about issues with the cam showing upside down in the past | 15:36 |
| akemhp | Maybe some memory configuration that would be reseted on reboot... | 15:36 |
| ioria | elphias_, don't you have a 'flip' option somewhere ? | 15:36 |
| elphias_ | cheese does not have a flip option | 15:37 |
| eamonnmr | Hey so I just transferred my install to a new, larger HDD and I need to boot into a live USB to resize my boot partition (extended) to make new logical partitions to take advantage of the additional storage | 15:37 |
| elphias_ | at least not one that i could find | 15:37 |
| eamonnmr | I heard that I could to the resize in gparted, which, ok, easy enough | 15:37 |
| ioria | !info v4l2ucp | 15:38 |
| ubottu | Package v4l2ucp does not exist in eoan | 15:38 |
| ioria | !info v4l2ucp bionic | 15:38 |

| ioria | elphias_, sudo apt-get install v4l2ucp | 15:38 |
| eamonnmr | If I mess with the extended partition but leave the logical partition I'm booting from alone, will that still break GRUB, and if it does break GRUB, how do I fix it? (Is there a guide anywhere?) | 15:38 |
| elphias_ | ioria, installed now what? | 15:39 |
| ioria | elphias_, v4l2ucp | 15:40 |
| elphias_ | OOOooo this looks promising | 15:40 |
| === SimonNL is now known as SimonNL_Afk | ||
| elphias | so i downloaded that video for linux thing for my cam, but no matter what setting i choose nothing works, does anyone know what the enviroment varibles and arguments are supposed to be so that the came flips right side up? | 15:59 |
| tomreyn | elphias: if you have a look at what's in your ~/.bash_aliases - this is a command that is executed when you login. what it does is that it redefines the "cheese" *shell* command (only, so it does not affect cheese started via the graphical desktop) to actually run this: export LIBV4LCONTROL_FLAGS=2 && LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libv4l/v4l1compat.so cheese | 16:05 |
| elphias | in v4l2ucp threres supposed to be an enviroment variable and an argument, does anyone know what they should be to work with cheese? | 16:05 |
| tomreyn | elphias: what the above does: "export LIBV4LCONTROL_FLAGS=2" sets the environment variable "LIBV4LCONTROL_FLAGS" to value "2"; and "LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libv4l/v4l1compat.so cheese" runs cheese with the environment variable "LD_PRELOAD" set to the value "/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libv4l/v4l1compat.so" | 16:07 |
| tomreyn | the latter causes a video 4 linux (v4l) compatibility layer to be loaded whenever you run the cheese command this way | 16:08 |
| tomreyn | and this compatibilitxy layer interprets the "LIBV4LCONTROL_FLAGS" variable, if set, thus rotating the video | 16:09 |
| elphias | ok so let me try this tomreyn, brb | 16:09 |
| tomreyn | elphias: you can probably just run rm ~/.bash_aliases in a terminal to delete the ~/.bash_aliases file now so that these changes we made earlier no longer apply (and no double rotation takes place, putting you back to where you used to be). and then you can set LIBV4LCONTROL_FLAGS=2 in v4l2ucp, logout, login again, and see whether it is fixed. | 16:11 |
| elphias | tomreyn, what should the value be in bash_aliases? i think i goofed somehow | 16:12 |
| elphias | because now the cam does not work at all | 16:12 |
| tomreyn | see what i just wrote | 16:12 |
| elphias | i had to relog to try and commit the changes, somehow i goofed, there was 2 lines in there and i deleted both and added what i thought you said the line should be | 16:13 |
| elphias | tomreyn, when i open up v4l2ucp and look in the preview settings this is what is under the enviroment section "LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l2convert.so" | 16:15 |
| elphias | somehow thats not right is it? | 16:15 |
| deadrom | hi | 16:15 |
| deadrom | Dell M4800 laptop, CPU fan annoyingly loud (3300rpm) with CPU near idle. 18.04LTS. what can I do here? | 16:16 |
| tomreyn | elphias: i don't know v4l2ucp and can't run it anywere currently, do you want to share a screenshot? | 16:18 |
| elphias | yes i will send you screenshots | 16:20 |
| elphias | give me a few | 16:20 |
| tomreyn | this is what you had in ~/.bash_aliases - one of these lines would be sufficient to run cheese with the roptation applied from a temrinal (only): https://termbin.com/zaze | 16:20 |
| tomreyn | but i think you should not use ~/.bash_aliases for this purpose but do it as ioria suggested, using v4l2ucp | 16:20 |
| tomreyn | elphias: it's ok, there are screenshots here http://screenshots.debian.net/package/v4l2ucp | 16:22 |
| tomreyn | horizontal flip is probably what you want | 16:22 |
| elphias | tomreyn, gonna upload images to shared dropbox, i think it will contain the info you "may?" need? | 16:24 |
| tomreyn | deadrom: firmware update first of all. then see if you can have the bios manage the fan better. if that's not an option look into fancontrol and other options for managing fan speed controlled by ubuntu. | 16:25 |
| tomreyn | elphias: not needed unless the looks changed compared what you see at the link i posted above | 16:25 |
| elphias | they have | 16:26 |
| elphias | it does not look anything like the images i've found online | 16:26 |
| elphias | tomreyn, https://www.dropbox.com/s/70yonuf9ou0erfw/Screenshot%20from%202020-01-05%200.zip?dl=0 | 16:29 |
| elphias | i took a few screenshots and zipped em up for you | 16:30 |
| elphias | maybe you can make sense of what i am seeing | 16:30 |
| deadrom | tomreyn: there actually is a tool i8kutils described "fan control for Dell laptop". fans fell silent when I installed for a moment then spun up again. I guess the purged fancontrol is still in effect. "firwmare update" - you mean BIOS upgrade? | 16:31 |
| elphias | tomreyn, does any of that make sense to you? | 16:35 |
| deadrom | reboot | 16:38 |
| elphias_ | tomreyn, sorry crashed, every since i installed that kde stuff my computer has been randomly freezing | 16:38 |
| elphias_ | oi | 16:38 |
| elphias_ | tomreyn, so any idea | 16:38 |
| tomreyn | elphias: yes, but do you read what i tell you? | 16:39 |
| tomreyn | <tomreyn> elphias: you can probably just run rm ~/.bash_aliases in a terminal to delete the ~/.bash_aliases file now so that these changes we made earlier no longer apply (and no double rotation takes place, putting you back to where you used to be). and then you can set LIBV4LCONTROL_FLAGS=2 in v4l2ucp, logout, login again, and see whether it is fixed. | 16:39 |

| elphias | totally, no video at all v.v | 17:19 |
| elphias | i've been using ubuntu for almost 20 years and i've never had an issue like this | 17:20 |
| elphias | usually cheese just works | 17:20 |
| lotuspsychje | its not new elphias, see bug #224559 | 17:20 |
| ubottu | bug 224559 in libv4l (Ubuntu) "Image on webcam is upside-down" [Wishlist,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/224559 | 17:20 |
| elphias | *reads* | 17:21 |
| elphias | and skype's video is still upside down, ontop of that this bug is well.....for kubuntu >.< | 17:22 |
| SimonNL_Afk | elphias, what happens when you click horizontal/vertical flip in v4l2ucp | 17:23 |
| elphias | SimonNL_Afk, it works as it should. | 17:24 |
| elphias | but if i type cheese in term, i get cheese but with a black screen where the video should be, skype also is upside down | 17:24 |
| SimonNL_Afk | elphias, alias | nc termbin.com 9999 show appearing link please | 17:24 |
| elphias | SimonNL_Afk, https://termbin.com/pvqbd | 17:25 |
| elphias | usually i'm smarter than this v.v | 17:26 |
| SimonNL_Afk | I'm thinking running cheese from cli might need that setting you had before | 17:26 |
| elphias | >.< then the other programs don't work | 17:27 |
| elphias | and i can't remember what the setting was | 17:27 |
| SimonNL_Afk | export LIBV4LCONTROL_FLAGS=2 && LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libv4l/v4l1compat.so cheese | 17:28 |
| SimonNL_Afk | run that from cli elphias | 17:28 |
| elphias | i did, errors and a blank cheese screen that says no device found | 17:29 |
| elphias | let me relog really quick | 17:29 |
| ioria | no device found is another story | 17:29 |
| SimonNL_Afk | or maybe v4l2ucp still running ?? | 17:30 |
| deadrom | tomreyn: purge fancontrol in favour of i8ktools is the way to go. fans now work as intended | 17:30 |

| elphias | SimonNL_Afk, i don't know, some major help here would be more than appriciated, i keep getting errors in term something about null failed......but some serious help is needed | 17:31 |
| SimonNL | I wish I really would know any thing about this | 17:31 |
| ioria | elphias, why don't you another app instead of cheese ? | 17:31 |
| elphias | i have | 17:31 |
| elphias | 2 of them work | 17:31 |
| wondows | jeremy31 Test result: Completed without error. | 17:31 |
| deadrom | elphias: <command> | pastebinit <- will upload output to pastebin and provide a link. | 17:31 |
| elphias | however video in skype is still upside down | 17:31 |
| ioria | elphias, so ? would be a cheese bug | 17:32 |
| ioria | ah | 17:32 |
| jeremy31 | wondows: check attributes in gsmartcontrol | 17:32 |
| SimonNL | elphias, it definitely would help if you showed messages | 17:32 |
| wondows | jeremy31 all of them look normal, Failed: never | 17:33 |
| wondows | I ran the Extended Self-Test btw | 17:34 |
| SimonNL | elphias, run skype using v4l2ucp | 17:34 |
| SimonNL | elphias, change cheese into skype | 17:34 |
| SimonNL | elphias, in configure preview | 17:34 |
| SimonNL | elphias, that's what v4l2ucp is meant for | 17:35 |
| jeremy31 | wondows: what value for wear levelling or SSD life? | 17:35 |
| elphias | ok so whats the command i should put in for skype? | 17:35 |
| elphias | skype.so? | 17:35 |
| SimonNL | elphias, please | 17:35 |
| SimonNL | <SimonNL> elphias, change cheese into skype | 17:36 |
| SimonNL | <SimonNL> elphias, in configure preview | 17:36 |
| SimonNL | still freezing ? | 17:36 |
| elphias | not quite yet, so far no freeze, and i changed the preview to skype, and the image is still upside down | 17:37 |
| wondows | jeremy31 Media Wear Out Indicator (Raw Value): 5441 | 17:37 |
| elphias | i'm really starting to hate my webcam v.v | 17:37 |
| SimonNL | elphias, well doesn't work then. this is all I have | 17:37 |
| SimonNL | skype settings maybe elphias | 17:38 |
| elphias | checking | 17:38 |
| deadrom | elphias: all well but video in skype is 180°? | 17:39 |
| elphias | yup, completely flipped upside down | 17:39 |
| deadrom | elphias: only in skype or everywhere else, too? | 17:39 |
| elphias | i changed the preview in v4l2ucp to skype | 17:40 |
| elphias | still no good | 17:40 |
| elphias | well i got 2 apps working, the v4l and guvcview | 17:40 |
| elphias | everything else is upside down v.v | 17:40 |
| elphias | i feel like an idiot for not knowing how to do this v.v | 17:41 |
| deadrom | elphias: they show it right? | 17:41 |
| deadrom | v4l and gucview? | 17:41 |
| elphias | v4l2ucp | 17:41 |
| elphias | and gucview which seem to be camera adjusting applications | 17:41 |
| elphias | i also broke cheese at the command line as well v.v this is only about 20 minutes ago | 17:42 |
| deadrom | then it's a skype issue. surprise surprise, MS... which version of skype? from an ppa, website..? | 17:42 |
| elphias | something isn't right, either i made a mistake or i don't know | 17:42 |
| deadrom | I don't know cheese | 17:42 |
| elphias | i got it from snap | 17:42 |
| deadrom | skype version? | 17:43 |
| SimonNL | https://git.io/Jejki elphias have a look | 17:43 |
| elphias | skype version | 17:44 |
| elphias | Skype version 8.55.0.141 | 17:44 |
| SimonNL | skype has a mirror H/V setting ! | 17:44 |
| elphias | it's every app but for the 2 i mentioned being upside down | 17:44 |
| elphias | where? O_o | 17:44 |
| deadrom | https://repo.skype.com/deb/pool/main/s/skypeforlinux/ | 17:45 |
| deadrom | newer version | 17:45 |
| elphias | ok downloading now, still don't explain why every other app that uses my camera is upside down | 17:48 |
| elphias | there's gotta be some kinda decent fix, this is linux after all | 17:49 |
| elphias | again, thank you all for helping me, i know i am being a pain in the butt | 17:50 |
| jemark | elphias: did you see this? https://askubuntu.com/questions/796082/how-to-fix-inverted-laptop-webcam-video | 17:50 |
| elphias | checking it out right now | 17:52 |
| jemark | elphias: ok | 17:52 |
| elphias | whats frusterating me, is i know how to fix alot of things in ubuntu, but this is a totally new issue to me | 17:53 |

| Fordrdnk | anyone have info on surface pro pen and touch screen for Kubuntu? i've done jakedays from github but no success | 18:00 |
| elphias | oh while i work on this, another problem i have is that cups takes 3 minutes to shut down at power off, any ideas? | 18:00 |
| elphias | oh, and my final question, is how do i make my laptop connect automatically at boot to a trusted bluetooth soundbar? i keep having to manual connect. | 18:08 |
| ameeno | Hello!!!! | 18:18 |

| korabcenaj | Hello | 18:30 |
| korabcenaj | It's been a while that I'm trying to upgrade my version of Ubuntu but there is always the same problem. | 18:30 |
| korabcenaj | Can anyone tell me how can I copy paste the log of the problem so that you can read it clearly? | 18:31 |
| Doow | Not sure if this question fits best here or in #blender, but when I start blender sound and video playback stops all over my computer. As soon as I close blender the video playback starts again. (tried on ubuntu and kubuntu 19.04, blender 2.81 installed via snap) | 18:31 |
| tomreyn | elphias: i'm back for a while if you have unsolved questions,. please note i discard any private messages by default. | 18:32 |
| tomreyn | korabcenaj: where do yu see the log? | 18:32 |
| korabcenaj | It just pops a windows with the error | 18:33 |
| tomreyn | korabcenaj: do you mean what's logged in /var/log/release-upgrade ? | 18:33 |
| tomreyn | korabcenaj: if it's a graphical message that you're referring to then best take a screenshot and post it to imgur.com (and share the url here) | 18:34 |
| korabcenaj | tomreyn I'll do that. Just a sec | 18:34 |
| tomreyn | Doow: check journalctl -f for any related error messages while you start and stop blender. | 18:35 |
| korabcenaj | https://pastebin.com/raw/ZixDEckP | 18:40 |
| korabcenaj | tomreyn | 18:40 |
| korabcenaj | The graphical message is too long and can't get it all on screenshot' | 18:41 |
| Doow | tomreyn: good thinking, here's some relevant things https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/ZMrFSSF6Xt/ | 18:41 |
| tomreyn | korabcenaj: this becomes a lot more readable like this: curl -s https://pastebin.com/raw/ZixDEckP | sed -E 's/([EW]:)/\n\1/g'; echo | 18:44 |
| tomreyn | korabcenaj: these warnings tell you cleanrly what you need to do. for example, ":7" would be line seven of this file. you can edit these files using a text editor such as nano, and sudo. | 18:45 |
| SimonNL_Afk | quite messy | 18:46 |
| === SimonNL_Afk is now known as SimonNL | ||
| tomreyn | Doow: hmm, i'd say contact the snap maintainer, which https://snapcraft.io/blender states is "Blender Foundation" | 18:46 |
| tomreyn | actually "blenderfoundation" | 18:47 |
| korabcenaj | The thing is that I did that. So, first of all, I commented one of the lines which is configured multiple times and when I try to upgrade it, it shows me the same error. I tried also to delete one of the lines and still the same problem | 18:47 |
| korabcenaj | tomreyn | 18:47 |
| Doow | tomreyn: Ok, thanks | 18:47 |
| tomreyn | korabcenaj: please cancel the upgrade if it's currently pending for confirmation to start, then run this 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 </tmp/aptlog && rm /tmp/aptlog | 18:48 |
| tomreyn | korabcenaj: this is just to get a better idea of what's wrong, it doesn't make changes | 18:48 |
| korabcenaj | tomreyn https://termbin.com/hhz1 | 18:49 |
| tomreyn | korabcenaj: and this, too: cat /etc/apt/sources.list | nc termbin.com 9999 | 18:49 |
| korabcenaj | tomreyn https://termbin.com/ljwm | 18:50 |
| tomreyn | huh, is this an arm64, an amd64, or an i386 system? | 18:50 |
| tomreyn | korabcenaj: nc termbin.com 9999 < <( dpkg --print-architecture; echo; dpkg --print-foreign-architectures;) | 18:52 |
| Doow | tomreyn: it definitely seems to be a problem with the snap, I don't get the same behaviour if I download directly from the website. (if someone else shows up with the same problem, it's an easy workaround =) ) | 18:53 |
| korabcenaj | tomreyn https://termbin.com/jhfi | 18:53 |
| tomreyn | korabcenaj: do you know what cpu architectures are? | 18:55 |
| tomreyn | like amd64, i386, arm64 ? | 18:55 |
| korabcenaj | tomreyn Kind of. Like 32bit or 64 bit | 18:57 |
| tomreyn | yes, kind of. so you probably have am amd64 capable CPU there, those are usually compatible to i386, so it's okay to have those two architectures enabled. you have, however, also enabled the arm64 architecture, which your computer cannot actually make use of. | 18:59 |
| tomreyn | admitterdly amd64 and arm64 sound similar, but they are really very different. | 18:59 |
| tomreyn | you must have run "sudo dpkg-add-architecture arm64" at some point, do you remember why you did this? | 18:59 |
| elphias | ok, can someone help me fix my video cam? skype's upside down, and trying to run the command for cheese from terminal says it's not availible | 19:02 |
| elphias | i went and screwed around with things at peoples suggestions and now things are all sorts of screwed up | 19:02 |
| elphias | cheese is now telling me no device found | 19:03 |
| korabcenaj | tomreyn you know how is it with Ubuntu, you want to install something and you have to install other things before that also, so No, I don't remember actually. :/ But can I just uninstall it? | 19:03 |
| elphias | but thats only trying to run it via cli | 19:03 |
| elphias | i might have found a solution but it won't work unless i can fix this issue | 19:04 |
| ioria | elphias, i suggest to boot the livecd in order to rule out manual mistakes | 19:04 |
| elphias | well here's the pastebin of what i am trying to do | 19:05 |
| elphias | https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/SJDfrkr9K3/ | 19:05 |
| tomreyn | Doow: thanks for reporting back, and glad you found a workaround. | 19:06 |
| elphias | according to the howto i found, that command should fix my issue | 19:06 |
| elphias | but it says operation not permitted | 19:06 |
| ioria | elphias, v4l2-ctl --list-devices | 19:06 |
| tomreyn | korabcenaj: hmm i guess you can start with dpkg -l *:arm64 to get an idea of what you installed | 19:07 |
| tomreyn | korabcenaj: to share it: dpkg -l *:arm64 | nc termbin.com 9999 | 19:07 |
| elphias | ioria, USB 2.0 Camera: USB Camera (usb-0000:00:1a.0-1.2): | 19:08 |
| elphias | /dev/video0 | 19:08 |
| elphias | /dev/video1 | 19:08 |
| tomreyn | korabcenaj: to share it: dpkg -l *:arm64 2>&1 | nc termbin.com 9999 | 19:08 |
| tomreyn | korabcenaj: the latter is correct | 19:08 |
| korabcenaj | tomreyn https://termbin.com/12lj | 19:09 |
| korabcenaj | Btw, how can I tag you? | 19:09 |
| tomreyn | korabcenaj: you just did, justmention my nickname | 19:09 |
| tomreyn | korabcenaj: so you have none installe,d just remove the architecture then: sudo dpkg --remove-architecture arm64 | 19:10 |
| korabcenaj | tomreyn I just did it | 19:12 |
| korabcenaj | So, now should I try to upgrade it again? | 19:12 |
| elphias | ioria, any ideas how to fix this? | 19:13 |
| tomreyn | korabcenaj: not yet. first: sudo sed -i '6,8d' /etc/apt/sources.list | 19:13 |
| korabcenaj | tomreyn Ok, what next? | 19:14 |
| tomreyn | korabcenaj: and then let's see this again: 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 </tmp/aptlog && rm /tmp/aptlog | 19:14 |
| ioria | elphias, can you test this : it will record a short video; wait 10 secs and kill it then : ffmpeg -f v4l2 -framerate 25 -video_size 640x480 -i /dev/video0 output.mkv | 19:14 |
| korabcenaj | tomreyn https://termbin.com/ql3p | 19:14 |
| tomreyn | korabcenaj: do you know what PPAs are? | 19:15 |
| tomreyn | !ppa | korabcenaj | 19:15 |
| ubottu | korabcenaj: A Personal Package Archive (PPA) can provide alternate software not normally available in the offical Ubuntu repositories - Looking for a PPA?

| elphias | Cannot open video device /dev/video0: Operation not permitted | 19:16 |
| ioria | somwthing wrong then | 19:16 |
| elphias | yes, i'm not sure what happend v.v | 19:16 |
| tomreyn | korabcenaj: you have 3 PPAs configured. PPAs and packages (and package versions) installed from there are not supported by ubuntu, can cause upgrades to break. I suggest you use ppa-purge to remove those PPAs. | 19:16 |
| elphias | or how to fix it, i recieved help from a few people and something went wonky | 19:16 |
| tomreyn | oh | 19:16 |
| ioria | elphias, stat /dev/video0 | 19:16 |
| elphias | ioria, https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/F84ZnTQH3c/ | 19:18 |
| elphias | it would seem that somehow root got ahold of things, i don't remember doing that | 19:18 |
| ioria | 0777 ? | 19:18 |
| elphias | is there a way to change it to my user? | 19:19 |
| elphias | this may be the kink in my issue | 19:19 |
| korabcenaj | tomreyn My internet got disconnected. :/ | 19:19 |
| ioria | elphias, have you changed the permissions ? | 19:19 |
| elphias | not that i am aware of | 19:19 |
| elphias | i'm not even sure how to do that O_o | 19:19 |
| korabcenaj | yes, I know. I understand, not fully but I just know that we need them to install programs | 19:19 |
| elphias | is there a way to correct this? | 19:20 |
| ioria | elphias, /dev/video0 should be 0660 not 0777 | 19:20 |
| elphias | strange | 19:20 |
| ioria | elphias, again i suggest to quickly test from livecd | 19:21 |
| tomreyn | korabcenaj: you have 3 PPAs configured. PPAs and packages (and package versions) installed from there are not supported by ubuntu, can cause upgrades to break. I suggest you use ppa-purge to remove those PPAs. | 19:23 |

| korabcenaj | tomreyn but what !ppa-s? Should I specify something? | 19:24 |
| tomreyn | korabcenaj: https://termbin.com/ql3p lists the following PPAs: http://ppa.launchpad.net/graphics-drivers/ppa/ubuntu http://ppa.launchpad.net/linuxuprising/java/ubuntu http://ppa.launchpad.net/webupd8team/java/ubuntu | 19:25 |
| elphias | ioria, how do i use the live usb to fix this issue? are there commands you can give to me? | 19:27 |
| elphias | or is it self fixing | 19:27 |
| tomreyn | korabcenaj: i just realized we need to also undo the sources.list changes the upgrades seems to have already applied to your system. you need to do this before you remove the PPAs. | 19:27 |
| tomreyn | korabcenaj: sudo sed -i 's/eoan/disco/gi' /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* | 19:28 |
| ioria | elphias, just boot the livec and run the ffmpeg cmd or start guvcview or cheese (this one might have a bug) | 19:28 |
| tomreyn | korabcenaj: once this is done, run this again: 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 </tmp/aptlog && rm /tmp/aptlog | 19:29 |

| korabcenaj | tomreyn' | 19:29 |
| korabcenaj | tomreyn | 19:29 |
| tomreyn | korabcenaj: now use ppa-purge | 19:31 |
| korabcenaj | tomreyn only ppa-purge ? | 19:32 |
| tomreyn | korabcenaj: i'll tell you shortly. do you have a very current nvidia graphics card? | 19:33 |
| korabcenaj | Yes, GTX 1050. | 19:33 |

| korabcenaj | tomreyn sudo: ppa-purge: command not found | 19:34 |

| korabcenaj | Okay. THank you so much man. You were great. :D I have to go now. I'll try to manage by myself from now on. | 19:40 |
| tomreyn | korabcenaj: be careful with commands from some third party websites, be sure oyu know what they do | 19:44 |
| tomreyn | !man | korabcenaj | 19:44 |

| tomreyn | cuddylier: could be a 100 mbps interface, or a link operating at this speed. | 21:07 |
| cuddylier | tomreyn: Link is definitely gigabit, speedtest cli shows gigabit speeds and outbound HTTP works up to gigabit speeds too, matching the port speed of gigabit. | 21:08 |
| cuddylier | I booted the server into rescue cd and it gets full inbound HTTP speeds so it's just an issue with the Ubuntu install. | 21:08 |
| tomreyn | cuddylier: so you tested this between the vm and a remote system? | 21:09 |
| cuddylier | I'm testing on the host system itself which has the issue | 21:09 |
| cuddylier | Tested pulling from both remote systems and systems within the same network. | 21:09 |
| cuddylier | All are restricted to 12.5 - 15MB/s inbound speed | 21:09 |
| Fevix | My laptop has a physical "Help" key. HOw do I turn this off so Ubuntu stops opening help? I already have the shortcut key disabled in Settings. | 21:11 |
| compdoc | cuddylier, dont use virtio nics or storage | 21:11 |
| tomreyn | so inbound http to the ubuntu 16.04 system is a problem, but not inbound http to an alternative OS installation running on the same hardware, did i get this right? | 21:11 |
| cuddylier | Correct | 21:12 |
| tomreyn | cuddylier: did you try a different protocol, did you try iperf? | 21:12 |
| cuddylier | compdoc: as in do or don't? I've always experienced virtio has much better than the alternatives but regardless, this testing isn't even inside a VM anyway. Inside the VMs also see the same speeds the host sees. | 21:12 |
| cuddylier | Yeah, other protocols work fine, speedtest cli does, I haven't tested iperf yet but I can. | 21:12 |
| compdoc | cuddylier, they will cause weird problems, like suddenly going very slow. | 21:13 |
| cuddylier | compdoc: Just on ubuntu I take it? | 21:13 |
| tomreyn | maybe try iperf with different ports, maybe try the latest 16.04 and 18.04 live isos | 21:14 |
| compdoc | thats all I use to run VMs, but its possible on other distros | 21:14 |
| tomreyn | (to rule out your own customizations as a source of the problem) | 21:14 |
| Fevix | My laptop has a physical "Help" key. How do I turn this off so Ubuntu stops opening help when I fatfinger that key? I already have the shortcut disabled in Settings. Proof: https://i.imgur.com/hQkTOnV.png | 21:15 |
| tomreyn | Fevix: use xev to identify the scancode, then look into how to disable it - i don't know how to do this part. | 21:29 |
| Fevix | tomreyn: I don't know how to interpret this. This was me pressing w, then the help key. There's no keypress event like there is with w. | 21:49 |

| cuddylier | Anyone know any good iperf3 US servers? I can only find two on the whole internet and only one works (HE.net's but they only have one port open so it's always unavailable) | 22:26 |
| FaTaL_G | Im stuck..... when I try apt autoremove, it tells me its going to get rid of: linux-image-4.15.0-72-generic linux-image-5.0.0-36-generic | 22:39 |
| FaTaL_G | when it tries to follow throught, it exits with error exit status 1 | 22:39 |
| FaTaL_G | it looks like: [Could not find /boot/grub/menu.lst file. Would you like /boot/grub/menu.lst generated for you? (y/N) /usr/sbin/update-grub-legacy-ec2: line 1101: read: read error: 0: Bad file descriptor] | 22:40 |
| Chieta | How to disabled mok... It's new for me | 22:40 |
| FaTaL_G | but, I dont have grub, I have grub2 | 22:40 |
| Ben64 | FaTaL_G: uh, what os and version | 22:40 |
| FaTaL_G | I am on 18.04, (used to be 16.04) | 22:41 |
| FaTaL_G | ubuntu | 22:41 |

| leftyfb | Fevix: maybe it's something you can disable in the BIOS? | 22:45 |
| FaTaL_G | ben64, any idea ... ? | 23:00 |
| tomreyn | cuddylier: ask in ##networking | 23:05 |
| FaTaL_G | I tried boot repair, that didn't do the trick | 23:09 |
| FaTaL_G | its like the system thinks I have grub and grub2 | 23:09 |
| akira893 | hello. | 23:16 |
| akira893 | trying to run a windows virtual machine under ubuntu to run 3dsmax | 23:16 |
| akira893 | i have a 17gb windows 7 vm file | 23:16 |
| akira893 | using virtual box... | 23:16 |
| tomreyn | akira893: and your ubuntu question is? | 23:21 |
| tomreyn | 3dsmax probably needs 3d acceleration, right? this might be a problem.# | 23:21 |
