[00:01] CashDash123, use paste.ubuntu.com, post url, wait and see [00:02] I haven't tried myself,but any idea why this failed? https://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v5.4.29/BUILD.LOG.i386 [00:07] dunno, maybe they dropped 32 bit kernels from mainline? i see no i386 in 5.5.14 too [00:09] hello, most gnome applications i'm using are losing their top bar when going on fullscreen mode, have anyone seen a similar problem? [00:10] with F11 ? [00:10] that is normal behaviour. [00:11] oerheks: so gedit is the outliner cuz when i put my mouse on top of the screen it shows as if it were a dropdown [00:11] doesn't mean I can't try and compile it myself,but that's proabably out of the offical support scope [00:12] also system-monitor doens't hide its title bar at all [00:17] ELon, just maximize? [00:17] full screen is fun with video, or presentation. [00:18] nah, ill open some ticket issues. [00:21] sarnold: what to do with that? (grub menu) [00:27] I am new to Ubuntu (and Linux more generally) and I have attempting to boot 18.04 from a laptop. Upon trying to run Ubuntu, the computer reports heat issues for the CPUs. Is there a solution to this? [00:33] Is anyone else able to sign the CLA at https://ubuntu.com/legal/contributors/agreement ? I submitted it (as an individual) some weeks ago but was never able to get the GitHub bot to verify that I had done it. Now the captcha at the bottom just looks like gibberish to me (issues has persisted for days, and is consistent in Chromium & Firefox) [00:41] troyready: This channel is run by volunteers and is not monitored by those incharge of that application. [00:44] Anyone know if the CLA app is on launchpad, or what an appropriate support venue would be? I'm specifically trying to work with the snap dev team, but I'm not sure they own the app. [00:45] you might be able to file a bug ticket on launchpad, that might get things moving along [00:47] How do you run a program when the Unity desktop starts? [00:48] Loimy: The high heat warning is hardware issue. Likely because your computer has accumulated dust in the heat sink and isn't effectively able to cool itself. There are other possible scenarios, I would encourage you to open up the laptop and make sure the cooling fans, vents and heat sinks are free and clear of any dust and debrise (or find someone you now and trust to help you take apart your machine) [00:48] Goop: what version of Ubuntu are you running? [00:48] pragmaticenigma, 18.04 at the moment. [00:48] I am running Unity though. [00:49] lightdm/Unity [00:50] I haven't run Unity in a long time, but there should be something called "Application Startup" I think, where you can configure programs to automatically start when you login [00:50] Before the login, when the desktop environment starts up. [00:51] Goop: what kind of program? [00:52] pragmaticenigma, a program that controls the mouse/keyboard from the network. [00:54] Goop: something like that is probably going to require authentication tokens to work properly, such tokens are usually not available until after successful login. You are aware that adding such a feature would leave your computer high vulnerable? [00:54] I might have it just run as a non-privileged user. [01:08] Anyone seen mention of printing distortions when applications use the cairo PDF-1.5 producer backend vs when (e.g. Evince) uses the Ghostscript PDF-1.2 producer? I'm driving an Evolois Primacy ID Card printer and one Xubuntu 19.10 system suffers what I can only describe as mono-filter + 30' rotation + stretch of a regular 86x54mm card document. [01:33] What would cause my ssh key passphrase to suddenly stop working? I have it saved in BitWarden, so I know it's correct. [01:34] ^^ I just closed the terminal and re-opened, and it worked. What the hell was that? [01:35] the matrix gliched? [01:36] might be that the token for BitWarden was stale, or handn't been established?

[02:15] no [02:16] Can I just create fubar.conf in /etc/X11/ with all of my touchpad options and it will just get used, or do I need to do something special? There is no touchpad conf file there now. [02:17] thumbfinger: yeah, that should work fine [02:17] ok, thanks [02:17] there's no need to make the full thing, just a small section should do the trick [02:17] alas it's way harder to figure out what that ought to look like these days than it used to be, heh [02:18] there's a command that'll dump the whole autogenerated config in proper format and everything but I can't ever recall what it is [02:19] I was looking at something old or for another distro, my config is in the /usr/share not /etc/X11 [02:21] thumbfinger: xorg.conf(5) describes where they can be stored, it's a looooong list [02:23] thumbfinger: Moved: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1051343/where-is-the-xorg-conf-file-in-ubuntu-18-04 has some info.

[07:47] calamity: Im not sure if you can cross upgrade.. did you try "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade " ? [07:48] no, but I'm following https://edge2.blogspot.com/2017/04/convert-ubuntu-desktop-to-server.html [07:50] did you already install tasksel? [07:50] yup [07:52] are you getting the error when running sudo tasksel install server or sudo apt-get install linux-server linux-image-server ? [07:53] only on "sudo apt-get install linux-server linux-image-server" [07:56] I think you may need to add a specific repo.. I can't locate with "linux-image-server" with "apt search linux-server" [07:57] Weird that they wouldn't specify that [07:59] I would normally just do a fresh reinstall but I'm working with some very bad hardware that seems to struggle with reading from USB [08:00] I agree.... I do see in the comments someone else mentioned the same issue though.. [08:00] yeah, I noticed that too. :\ [08:00] I would be wary about a cross upgrade though. I woul dbe worried about things breaking or missing important packages. [08:01] Maybe someone else will chime in with an answer. But its always safest to do a fresh install to avoid future issues. [08:02] yeah. I'm gonna see if I can find a usb stick that it doesn't object to haha [08:02] hahaha, may the force be with you [08:04] thanks haha [08:06] calamity: have a look at this thread before installing server to make sure that it is for sure something you want to do https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2114629 [08:08] It's going to be sitting on a shelf running a bunch of web and media servers.

Please don't keep messaging the channel asking if anyone can help, instead patiently wait. It does help if you can provide more information about your setup as well as details on how you setup your machine. The more information you can provide (ideally in a single one line posting) will help other [14:33] volunteers see your request and be able to accurately help you. [14:34] halvors, this is a bit out of my knowledge base. have you removed packages from your system or made any changes since it last booted successfully? [14:35] pragmaticenigma: It does boot successfully, it's just that it takes a long time, seems like it's trying and then failing reaching a timeout limit. [14:35] pragmaticenigma: But thx for your input anyway :) [14:58] hi, does anyone know the definitive solution to the clipboard issue? half the time cut paste wont work, then every few times it freezes the whole system for 30 seconds or so. its actually doing this on kubuntu vm, and kde debian on the host machine. is this a kde issue? i see so many articles about this happening on various linux flavours and [14:58] within specific apps, but for me its across the board and really doing my head in!! please help me === lestac is now known as lestac_hra === parlos is now known as parlos_afk [15:14] Hi All [15:14] I've an issue with Menu background color for many apps in My Ubuntu laptop. [15:14] I am using "pop-dark-slim" theme and tried many things, but the issue did not get resolved. [15:15] Where can i upload an image, so that someone from here can understand what the problem is and suggest a solution. [15:23] Bey0ndB1nary: upload to imgur.com [15:29] Just a quick question. I've noticed some issues with Root-on-ZFS installer on daily Focal image. Where might be the right place to report such issue with more details? [15:29] #ubuntu+1 [15:33] Sorry to bother, can someone instruct me on the best way to install a package from launchpad that doesn't seem to have a ppa? https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/smenu I downloaded a .deb and it was missing some dependency and I'm not sure how to handle this in ubuntu. I only really know Arch these days. I'm assuming that there's some way to install with 'apt install' and it would install the dependency? I'm [15:33] feeling pretty lost. [15:34] I'm just a user, but maybe "sudo apt --fix-broken install" might pull in those dependencies? Depending on how you tried installing the deb. [15:36] ShawnMcCool what version of Ubuntu are you using? [15:41] 18.04 [15:43] that pkg is available for 18.10 and on ShawnMcCool : if i may don't use the eoan or disco .deb on bioni , you might try to build it from source (https://salsa.debian.org/mcy-guest/smenu) [15:47] Yeah, that package is just not available for 18.04 unfortunately. [16:02] k thanks [16:10] orry if this is against the rules but are we expecting the beta release to come out today? or has it been delayed? i'm asking because i was thinking about trying out 20.04 and I'll wait for the beta release if it's going to come out, but if not I'll just grab a daily [16:10] risho, correct, *the beta* should be released today [16:11] cool, thanks a lot! [16:11] no daily live today either.. http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/ [16:16] risho, from the 'team'; Looks like ubuntu, xubuntu, ubuntu-mate, ubuntu-budgie, ubuntustudio will get respun beta candidate images in a bit, to get a zfs fix in [16:17] There's plenty of "today" left. [16:17] sorry to be clear i wasn't trying to be demanding. i just know that due to the state of things that things could have been pushed back in which case i was going to grab a daily [16:18] but if a beta was imminent i'd just wait [16:18] risho: The current dailies do not represent the beta. I'd just wait. We are waiting on respins. [16:18] yeah that's what i'll do, thanks === parlos_afk is now known as parlos [16:56] on ubuntu 14.04 xfce what will be the shortcut key to open xfce-terminal? === parlos is now known as parlos_afk [17:00] wr: 14.04 is end of life, support can continue only with ESM [17:01] lotuspsychje, i know but it still has a shortcut key [17:01] anyone here on 20.04 that use Filezilla ? [17:01] tugapower: come join at #ubuntu+1 please [17:02] Im also interested in trying the beta...

[18:45] What up [18:45] read here ... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shadowsocks [18:45] wr, the answer depends on the DE and version of Ubuntu being run. Google "Xubuntu Desktop Guide" <--- change Xubuntu to the DE you are running. [19:20] anyone up to helping me unlock my external harddrive? I'm sorta stuck on step 3 of https://github.com/geekhaidar/WD-Passport-Unlock-Linux [19:21] I don't think I passworded it or anything, I just can't run an .exe since I switched from vista to lubuntu and realized I can't get my files until I work around [19:21] one problem at a time [19:21] NewToLubuntu: "can't run an exe" -- what does this mean? [19:26] so I generated a new initramfs and I'm still getting stuck after loading kernel [19:27] in recovery mode, immediately after the grub menu the only things are "loading kernel..." and on the next line "loading initramfs" [19:31] TheFu, it is xfce [19:31] What number? [19:33] on ubuntu 14.04 xfce [19:34] he has been told to upgrade, 14.04 is dead, EOL [19:34] those machines should be off the internet [19:35] oerheks, scary. [19:37] wr, time to wipe and start clean with 18.04 or perhaps 19.10, with a plan to move to 20.04 in about a month. [19:38] !info firefox trusty [19:38] firefox (source: firefox): Safe and easy web browser from Mozilla. In component main, is optional. Version 66.0.3+build1-0ubuntu0.14.04.1 (trusty), package size 46606 kB, installed size 180281 kB [19:40] is that the -esm version? [19:41] oerheks, do desktops have esm support? [19:42] TheFu: this is the list of supported packages for trusty-esm https://git.launchpad.net/ubuntu-cve-tracker/tree/trusty-esm-supported.txt [19:43] TheFu, yes, paid and members have some number of licences too [19:44] but really, one must have a reason to run that. [19:44] !esm [19:44] Canonical offers paid extended security support for end-of-life LTS releases through the Ubuntu Advantage program. For more information, see https://ubuntu.com/esm . ESM is not an Ubuntu community offering; please direct questions about it to Canonical directly. [19:45] If that list is it, I'm not seeing xfce or lxde or firefox. Looks like servers stuff, which would be expected. [19:46] hi all, I'm on 19.10, 5.3.0-45-generic, trying to find a working solution for my non working Intel Wireless-AC 9462 [19:48] xubuntu's website says, 18.04 and 19.10. On the right side, it clearly shows 16.04 is EOL. [19:48] TheFu: Funny you should mention that, that's why I'm here. [19:48] xubuntu gives 3 years, indeed [19:49] A friend emailed me for some advice on installation, he's trying to install 16.04 and he gets a black screen with just this error: Error parsing PCC subspaces from PCCT [19:49] Of course the first thing I asked is why 16.04, I've been telling him it's out of support. [19:50] He seems to be Not Getting It, so I thought I'd ask here about what the implications are, so I can scare him into doing the right thing. [19:50] Spock_ncc1701, with intel wireless, one could use the backports ppa, https://launchpad.net/~canonical-hwe-team/+archive/ubuntu/backport-iwlwifi?field.series_filter=eoan [19:50] ubuntu 16.04 is still in standard support for another year -- different flavours may have chosen to stop supporting their 16.04 versions, of course [19:52] oerheks, thanks. is there an official solution? [19:52] sarnold: Ah, thanks. [19:53] sarnold: I would have sworn I saw some notice about its support window ending. [19:55] puff: the big handy table of end of support dates is on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases [19:56] puff: it doesn't mention the flavours, though, which is unfortunate, but may be helpful [19:58] Spock_ncc1701, one could build the github .. [19:59] oerheks, do you know there will be an official fix soon? [19:59] if* [19:59] nope [20:00] thanks [20:00] hi guys, how do you turn on hardware acceleration for intel HD graphic in 18.04 ? [20:00] we did got a firmware update lately, no idea which fixes were in there [20:01] simple browsing is running CPU off the chart :( [20:01] my system is fully updated. they probably didn't add this fix :\ [20:03] @_@ [20:03] nobody up [20:04] dmdf, what intel HD version? [20:04] intel is standard supported, but gen 3 is not a youtube monster [20:05] oerheks: intel GMA 4500MHD [20:05] oerheks: which gen is that [20:06] oerheks: and i wasn't even running youtube [20:06] just simple google docs etc... [20:06] oerheks: these are the only 2 supported profile [20:06] vainfo: Supported profile and entrypoints [20:06] VAProfileMPEG2Simple : VAEntrypointVLD [20:06] VAProfileMPEG2Main : VAEntrypointVLD [20:07] :/ [20:07] I think it does have other capabilities but somehow it's not turned on properly [20:08] i've installed i965-va-driver-shaders intel-gpu-tools va-driver-all beignet-opencl-icd mesa-vulkan-drivers vulkan-utils mesa-utils mesa-utils-extra libva-glx2 [20:08] none of them make it any much better [20:08] dmdf: what's using all your cpu? I've heard of some terrible display connection protocol that sucks up a whole cpu [20:09] sarnold: firefox [20:09] chrome [20:09] sarnold: firefox chrome and zoom [20:09] ah, then probably not the displaylink or whatever that was [20:09] sarnold: this is a fresh install 18.04 [20:09] that 2008 intel surely had issues ..and with the intel-microcode to fix huge bugs, performance may vary.. [20:10] maybe it is a cooling issue. [20:10] oerheks: what intel-microcode ? [20:11] intel-microcode: Processor microcode firmware for Intel CPUs [20:13]
