carreraHi everyone00:00
Roeyhi.00:01
Roeyzoom crashes for me on Kubuntu 20.04; how can I diagnose the exact problem?00:01
carreraI'm trying install ubuntu 20.04 on an Asus G751 with 2 SSD drives. I would like to config the drives in RAID-0. I used to use the Net Install but 20.04 doesn't seem to have a Net Install option. Can anyone point me to the right direction?00:03
tomreyncarrera: RAID-0 means doubling the chance to loose data, you're aware of this?00:12

carreratomreyn, yes, I am  :(00:15
tomreyni guess your options are installing the server installer, the legacy server installer, or debootstrap.00:15
tomreyn*using the00:15
tomreyni don't think the desktoip installer supports this scenario (but can always be wrong)00:16
waltmanI upgraded from 19.10 to 20.04 this morning. I just ran ps and I saw that I've got processes with pid's > 32767! That seems to be new in 20.04. Is that documented anywhere?00:18
nightBulb15I installed Ubuntu 20.04 yesterday,00:20
carreratomreyn, thanks00:20
nightBulb15There is no sound through HDMI00:21
nightBulb15I'm using nvidia graphics card00:21
tomreynwaltman: did the output of     cat /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max   change then?00:22
nightBulb15GF108 High Definition Audio Controller00:22
nightBulb15The only output available is Digital Outpu (S/PDIF)00:23
nightBulb15Also the mic (laptop webcam) is also not detected00:23
waltmantomreyn: An excellent question! It's currently 4194304. I don't know what it used to be.00:23
nightBulb15I mean the mic embedded along the laptop webcam is also not detected00:24
nightBulb15Its a fresh install00:24
tomreynwaltman: 32768 on amd64 18.04 LTS. it's probably made possible by dropping x86 support00:24
nightBulb15Anyone ?00:24
nightBulb15I ran alsa_info script00:26
nightBulb15and it uploaded the info on http://alsa-project.org00:27
madpropsis it possible to avoid apparmor messages like "apparmor="DENIED" operation="ptrace" from spamming the journals?00:28
nightBulb15The audio was working on Ubuntu 18.04.4 (I upgraded it from 16.04) and now don't recall, If I implemented any fix in 18.04 or not.00:29

BluecoatAnyone know how to turn off cinnamon opengl effects?  They defaulted on with 20.04 and my terrible Intel graphics do not do the right thing with them.00:35
nightBulb15One thing to note though, following this ->  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshootingProcedure,00:39
nightBulb15aplay -D plughw:1,9 /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav00:39
nightBulb15the above command does play sound via HDMI00:40
nightBulb15aplay -l                  does seem to suggest that there are 2 cards, [ HDA Intel MID ] & [ HDA nVidia (hdmi) ]00:42
nightBulb15Houston, in the blind, this is Kowalski.00:44
nightBulb15:)00:44
nightBulb15I figured out that card 1, device 9 send audio to HDMI via this command -->> aplay -D plughw:1,9 /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav00:46
nightBulb15but cannot figure out how to set it in Ubuntu Settings.00:46

tripelbInstalling 20.04. i am taking an existing ntfs partition.. what I need to do is make another swap and a / --- or will it use the swap that is on the drive already?  --> i have windows,18.04, and several unused ntfs partitions (I was told to use the Windows partitioner, so I just partitioned up the disc.)01:21
tripelbWay back when I remembered my windows password.01:21
RoseBushello, i have an old installation of ubuntu 16 on a partition and i'm trying to delete the partition but gparted wont let me01:24
tripelbRoseBus i am becomming a mistress of doing things another way. Can you reformat it i stead of delete it? Can you just install over jt?01:26
RoseBusi want to empty the hard drive for sale01:27
tripelbIANASO (I am not a sysop)01:27
tripelbMaybe if you boot from a liveusb so it can be unmounted RoseBus01:28
tripelbYou can't do anything with gparted to a mounted partition01:29
Bluecoatweird, Cinnamon doesn't work but kde plasma does.  *shrug*01:30
tomreynRoseBus: "delete the partition" really doe snothing to the data on the drive other than flip a few bytes on the partition table01:30
tripelbSomebody tell me do I have to create another swap partition to go with this installation or will it use the old one. Hi tomreyn01:31
tomreynRoseBus: if you want to have a chance to prevent others from restoring the data you'll need to overwrite it (the data itself, so the entire partition, or better the entire disk, once all data is backed up) with random data or at leat zero it.01:32
Betalmy gnome desktop can't delete files and can't open files giving a gnome-shell error on journalctl, but if I open ~/Desktop, I can delete and open the same file, is there a configuration about this?01:32
Bashing-omtripelb: Will use an existing swap aprtition.01:32
tripelbBashing-om ok then all I need to make is /01:33
Boyettehi01:34
Bashing-omtripelb: Yup - formated for a linux file system.01:34
tripelbExt4 / this is easier.01:35
tomreynBetal: what's the error message? use a !pastebin for multiple lines of output, or imgur.com for a screenshot01:35
Bashing-omBetal: permissions ? what shows ' ls -ld /home/beta1 ' - where Beta1 is your actual user name on the system.01:36
Betaltomreyn: it is like, gnome-shell execution of "file/full/path" failed :: command not found, when trying to open01:37
Betalbut if I open the file manager to ~/desktop, and double click, it opens the file01:38
tomreynBetal: i didn't ask what it's like, i asked for an error message.01:39
tomreynBetal: also the output of the command Bashing-om asked for may help. as well as auxialiary information, such as your ubuntu version, how this may have happened, when it started happening etc.01:41
tomreyn!details01:42
ubottuPlease elaborate; your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you.

woenxHi. Does someone have experience with exiftool?01:51
woenxI am trying to delete a specific xmp tag from a bunch of images, but I think i'm quite lost01:51
s_i have a slightly off topic question about kubernetes--may I?01:53
Betaltomreyn: https://bpaste.net/raw/BIMQ Ubuntu 20.04, started after the update to 20.0401:55
Psi-JackI really like the fact that the 20.04 lockscreen no longer is its own image, but a blurry image of the desktop background, now. So simple, yet nice.01:56
tomreynBetal: would you have any idea why    gnome-shell    would try to execute    "/home/betal/Desktop/Link to LOG.txt"    though?01:57
s_its almost like they saw a mac :)01:58
Betaltomreyn: this happens if I double click the given file on the "desktop" the gnome show up (the workspace's desktop)01:58
tomreynBetal: hmm you upgraded to 20.04 LTS, this would have been an unsupported upgrade at this time.01:58
s_oh did 20.04 come out? cool. doing to update my 20.04 pre-release VM02:00
tomreynBetal: change permissions of the file to not be executable, this will likely solve it.02:00
Betaltomreyn: the way the error happens is like gnome don't have permissions to execute the files, because when I open ~/Desktop on nautilus it can open02:00
tomreynBetal: ls -l "/home/betal/Desktop/Link to LOG.txt"02:02
Betaltomreyn: just to say, this "Link to LOG" is a symlink02:03
BetalI can't remove the x flag02:03
tomreynyou're probably dealing with one of the several deficiencies of the gnome-extension handling files on the desktop02:03
tomreynso where does the symlink point to and what are the permissions of that?02:04
andre144khey all... i dont understand visudo exactly ... is there a way to run a script with root-privileges, without password is needed?02:06
andre144ki want allow this script only for one user02:06
s_andre144k: yep--the NOPASSWD directive02:08
tomreynandre144k: so are you another person than the one who asked the same question in #ubuntu-de twice today?02:09
s_i always have to look up the exact syntax--the sudoers file format is hideous02:09
Betaltomreyn: meanwhile I found this on journalctl -f https://bpaste.net/raw/H3KA02:09
tomreyns/another/a different/02:09
andre144ktomreyn, no, im here registered with only this username02:10
tomreynandre144k: okay, just a coincidence then.02:11
andre144kmaybe someone have an exact example for user "foobar" and script "/Scripts/foo.sh" - i dont understand exactly how to define this correct02:12
tomreynso if user "someuser" is to be able to run /usr/sbin/somescript as root without a password prompt, you would do     echo 'someuser     ALL = NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/somescript' | sudo tee -a /etc/sudoers.d/somescript_someuser >/dev/null     then after next logout and login this should start working (sudo is still needed)02:14
andre144kfoobar ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /Script/foo.sh02:14
andre144kthis should it be02:14
tomreynyou'll basically be undermining an essential security concept there, though, so make sure this script can't take arguments which could elevate access further.02:16
andre144ktomreyn, thank you for informations... its a little usv-script which is sending mailreport and will shutdown database before stop system normaly02:20
andre144kthank you much, its working :)02:29
aaaardvark__I am trying to connect to a server using ssh -X - I use ssh all the time, have never wanted x before, all seems fine till I try and invoke a graphical program, at that time I get the error: Error: no DISPLAY environment variable specified - what do I need to do that I am not doing on which (ie client or server) machine?02:38
Betaltomreyn: reloging 'fixed' the errors from last paste, and yes, looks the x flag make diference, the link is to a file on ntfs partition, and I think this might affect it, (on 18.04 this specific behavior was working). I also tested with local files with x and without x flag, the file.txt with x flag don't open, so you are correct about it02:44
aaaardvark__if anyone cared - to solve my x problem I just needed to install xauth on the server02:50

pennTellerHi guys, how do I configure a dns server from Ubuntu's recovery in order to be able to use apt? I am using ubuntu 18.0403:28
Jordan_UpennTeller: How are you connected to the internet?03:34
pennTellerJordan_U: on eth0 and I already did ifup and dhclient. I have a working IP just not DNS :(03:34
Jordan_UpennTeller: Does your DHCP provide DNS information to other clients?03:35
pennTellerYes it normally does03:37
Jordan_UpennTeller: Is this a desktop install?03:37
pennTellerYes, desktop install on a Lenovo laptop03:38
zhanxpennTeller, goto here /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/ and look for the connection name03:39
zhanxwhen you find it03:39
zhanxopen it in an editor add either your dns or googles dns=8.8.8.8;03:40
pennTellerzhanx: ok in it03:40
pennTellerThans that worked03:41
pennTeller:D03:42
pennTellerThanks*03:43
Rojola1hi!03:44
Rojola1I am in trouble!03:44
zhanxno problem pennTeller03:44
Rojola1I just logged in via SSH to my server, and ran  apt update && apt upgrade03:44
Rojola1while it was upgrading, I got a screen asking me to configure postfix  (a blue config screen in the shell)03:44
Rojola1however, my internet connection got interrupted at that point03:44
Rojola1how can I continue on the server?03:44
quadrathoch2zhanx, theoretically what would i do, if I wouldn't have any file in that directory? (just looked into mine) (/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/)03:46
zhanxRojola1, you cant03:46
Ben64always use 'screen' or something when doing stuff like that on a server so you can bring a session back03:46
zhanxquadrathoch2, make one based off the ifconfig names03:46
Ben64but you can probably run upgrade again to continue03:47
zhanxben64 wont he have to kill the pid first03:47
Mordoczhanx: Didn't it use to fire up another ssh session at port 1022 or is that false memory? Could be, I'm old after all...03:47
Rojola1zhanx, but there most be something I can do?!?03:47
Rojola1this is where I got interrupted:03:47
Rojola1https://filebin.net/8whxhq5u0u8v8w54/interrupted_here.png?t=6m4wkmgc03:47
Ben64zhanx: maybe03:47
Ben64try doing upgrade again Rojola103:48
zhanxMordoc, maybe, i just use screen these days03:48
Rojola1Ben64, I did - the pid is locked03:48
Rojola1E: Could not get lock /var/cache/apt/archives/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)03:48
Rojola1E: Unable to lock directory /var/cache/apt/archives/03:48
quadrathoch2thanks zhanx03:48
Ben64is apt or dpkg runningc currently?03:48
Rojola1Ben64, yes, of course it's running, but I can not access it any more03:48
Ben64of course? it could have gotten killed03:49
Rojola1Ben64, because I was logged in via SSH when my internet connection broke down03:49
Rojola1Ben64, am I allowed to end the process?03:49
Rojola1I don't want to cause a disaster03:49
Ben64will probably be ok03:49
zhanxRojola1, end the process and restart it, this time over a screen session03:49
Rojola1zhanx, Ben64:  please hold my hand while doing so.03:51
MordocRojola1: Try ssh'ing to port 1022 on the same box (assuming that you haven't UFW'ed it out of contact). Might be a door back in...03:51
Rojola1killall -9 apt  ?03:51
Rojola1Mordoc, I can SSH my way onto the server03:51
Ben64just do it by pid03:51
zhanxrestart sshd03:51
Ben64find the process and just "kill <pid>" it03:51
Rojola1Mordoc, the problem is,  that  "apt upgrade" did not get finished03:51
Rojola1ok, one moment03:51
Rojola1done03:52
MordocRojola1: If you are doing a do-release-upgrade it starts a backup session for cases like this, it only works if you have screen installed as well.03:52
MordocRojola1: If it doesn03:52
Rojola1how does screen work?03:52
MordocRojola1: screen -r03:53
Ben64it keeps a session going and you can have mutiple windows and all kinds of cool stuff03:53
Rojola1thank you,  time to hit the manpage!03:53
MordocRojola1: if it doesn't work, apparently screen isn't installed and zhanx and Ben64 are right, do what they say...03:53
Rojola1I ran into one more issue now03:54
zhanxstill locked on the file right?03:54
Rojola1https://dpaste.org/Aax4/raw03:54
Rojola1zhanx, nah, it seems to work03:54
Rojola1but I am being asked this (see url)03:54
MordocI'm on a terminal only session gang, I'm out...03:54
zhanxRojola1, that is a Y03:54
Rojola1thank you Mordoc, bye!03:55
Jordan_URojola1: I am curious about how that file got deleted. Did you do that?03:55
Rojola1thank you zhanx !03:55
Rojola1thank you Ben6403:55
zhanxwhen you need to configure fstrim you will know it for the cron job etc03:56
Rojola1Jordan_U, no, I did not, that's why I preferred to ask rather than doing anything03:56
Rojola1apt ended with an error03:56
MordocGood work folks...03:56
Rojola1I only paste the last few lines:03:57
Rojola1https://dpaste.org/iO3W/raw03:57
Jordan_URojola1: Deleting configuration files isn't something that scripts or humans do very often, at least not intentionally. This file should be fine, but I'm curious if you have a larger problem that caused this.03:57
Rojola1Jordan_U, probably time to take a backup...03:57
zhanxRojola1, that was the lock i was waiting you to say03:58
zhanxdpkg --configure -a (as sudo or su)03:59
Rojola1https://dpaste.org/jxkA/raw03:59
Rojola1zhanx, ^03:59
Rojola1zhanx, can this be fixed, pleeeease?04:01
zhanxtry  apt update && apt upgrade one more time and if that doesn't work we will unlock manually (not recommended)04:01
Rojola1thank you zhanx for being there for me04:02
Rojola1zhanx, https://dpaste.org/SEEA/raw04:02
zhanxi had tons of help when i first started out, trust me, its just paying it back04:02
zhanxapt-get -f install04:03
Rojola1should I really confirm?   =>  https://dpaste.org/g84c/raw04:04
zhanxRojola1, yes that is the package you needed that was broke04:05
zhanxaka this https://dpaste.org/iO3W/raw04:05
Rojola1omg...04:06
Rojola1https://dpaste.org/N7kT/raw04:06
Rojola1god I really messed up04:06
zhanxnope04:06
zhanxpm time for these commands04:06
zhanxRojola1, that show get you rolling now04:09
zhanx^should04:10
zhanxRojola1, after the updates you need to install screen04:11
Rojola1zhanx, I already said my thanks in the private chat,  however,  I also want the public to know:  zhanx saved the day,  it works!! THANK YOU :)04:13
zhanxRojola1, keep in mind, I broke it like that before04:13
Rojola1how would I reconnect to the same session using screen in the future?04:14
zhanxscreen -d -r04:14
Rojola1if an SSH connection got disrupted?04:14
zhanxRojola1, read up on screen you will love it04:14
Jordan_URojola1: You have to *start* your commands in a screen session. Just run "screen" to start a screen session. When you want to connect to that session run "screen -r".04:15
zhanxJordan_U, his larger issue for losing that config file was where the update stopped it04:16
zhanxat04:16
Rojola1I am trying out 'screen' now04:18
Rojola1I typed "screen",  confirmed the text by hitting the ENTER key,  and then I can  cat > testing.txt   and typed some letters04:19
Rojola1now I am opening an other terminal,  and connecting from there04:19
zhanxinstall reptyr while you are at it04:19
Rojola1"There is no screen to be resumed."04:20
Jordan_Uzhanx: That makes some sense, though now I'm concerned that whatever packager made the scripts for that package is doing this in a very poor way.04:20
Jordan_URojola1: You need to ssh in again and run screen -r from the server. screen doesn't replace ssh.04:21
Rojola1Jordan_U, I did that04:22
zhanxclose the first terminal without logging out or you need to include the -d04:22
Rojola1YES04:23
zhanxJordan_U, I can see that being an issue04:23
Rojola1it works!04:23
Rojola1-r -d04:23
Rojola1perfect!04:23
Rojola1so, if the server things I am still there -d04:23
Rojola1thx :))04:23
Rojola1today is a good day.04:23
zhanxRojola1, screen can do more than that once you learn it04:24
klu3is it possible to use RAM for /tmp   so instead of using ssd or hdd it uses ram instead04:24
zhanxklu3, parts of it04:25
zhanxlook up tmpfs and ramtmp (is that still a thing)04:26
klu3thanks, im thinking of upgrading my ssd to nvme in windows and i never get pass 8-9 gigs of ram and i have 16 gigs, so i look it up and found out there's this thing called ramdisk, and i wondered if its possible in linux as well04:27
klu3zhanx: thanks ill look it up04:28
exit70klu3, try /dev/shm04:28
exit70it uses tmpfs04:28
klu3exit70: thanks for suggestion ill take a look04:29
zhanxthink i should just neural net this bot and only give it leg parameters and let it learn to walk04:31

sharpeeHi from Ubuntu 20.04 :wave: I am prepping an application for 20.04 and wondering if anyone could guide me in the right direction.ldd qt5app...    libicui18n.so.60 => not found    libicuuc.so.60 => not found    libicudata.so.60 => not found...05:36
Jordan_Usharpee: What application are you trying to install?05:36
sharpeeit is for a blockchain application binary using qt505:37
Jordan_Usharpee: Is this an application you're writing yourself? What is the name of the application?05:37
sharpeeNo, i am learning and debugging the app to aid core developers. The application is for https://github.com/MyHush/SilentDragon05:38
Jordan_Usharpee: Is the application for SilentDragon, or is the application SilentDragon?05:39
sharpeeThe app works on 19.10 and have little cpp experience with debugging. The application is called SilentDragon05:40
sharpeefrom using ldd tool, these three files are not found: libicui18n.so.60, libicuuc.so.60, libicudata.so.6005:41
Jordan_Usharpee: Great. You can find what package provides a given file using the apt-file command, for exple "apt-file search libicui18n.so.60" .05:41
sharpeeokay05:41
Jordan_Usharpee: Did you already install the packages listed in the README? qt5-default qt5-qmake libqt5websockets5-dev qtcreator05:44
sharpeeHmm, that is a great question; i reinstalled 20.04 and I bet I forgot to do that.05:45
sharpeeJordan_U  I didn't. I thought the binary files for the avg. user shouldn't have to install these packages.05:49
sharpeeI am installing now and will test again05:49
sharpeeJordan_U I ran this command for the .deb05:50
sharpeesudo dpkg -i SilentDragon-v0.9.1-x86_64.deb05:50
sharpeerather than building from source. Building from source, I ./build.sh05:50
Jordan_Usharpee: Then "sudo apt -f install" should grab any dependencies that you may be missing, if they are available.05:51
Jordan_Usharpee: Another option in the future is to run "sudo apt install /path/to/file.deb", do do the installation and grabbing of dependancies in one step. If the file is in your current directory be sure to do something like "sudo apt install ./SilentDragon-v0.9.1-x86_64.deb", the "./" lets apt know to look for a file in the current directory, rather than searching for a packagename from the repositories.05:53
Jordan_Usharpee: And if dpkg -i installed without error, but the app didn't run, then that means that whoever packaged it needs to add dependencies to the package.05:53
sharpeeSuper thanks Jordan_U You have been very helpful05:54
dreamonhello. those packages were holing back.  libsdl2-2.0-0 libsdl2-dev so I cannot upgrade to 20.04. how can I fix it?05:54
=== tomato365839283 is now known as tomato579281
Jordan_Udreamon: Did you start the upgrade and it failed, or are you not able to start the upgrade? If the upgrade failed, please pastebin any error messages that it gave.05:57
Jordan_Usharpee: You're welcome :)05:57
dreamonJordan_U, Its a german Ubuntu version. → https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/qWKjXdsmXg/06:02
quadrathoch2dreamon, I would remove all the ppas, so the upgrade doesn't break. Probably there are some ppas which don't have a 20.04 release deb06:04
dreamonquadrathoch2, yes. having about 15ppas06:06
quadrathoch2dreamon, make sure that they have a focal release, if not remove the package+ppa or wait :/06:06
dreamonquadrathoch2, Made a full backup. only want to test a little bit. how can i find out what ppa needs this failing package?06:08
quadrathoch2dreamon, sadly you would need to look them up on launchpad06:09
dreamonOk. Thanks06:13
ubonehttps://bpaste.net/GJLQ why is apt installing another kernel?06:16
quadrathoch2ubone, because kernels are always a new package, so when you hit 3 (i think) ubuntu deletes older ones, and you have a backup kernel if the newest doesn't work06:16
ubonecan i have 1 only06:17
quadrathoch2ubone, you could, but what is the benefit of that?06:18
ubonespace is limited06:18
quadrathoch2ubone, have a look here :) https://phoenixnap.com/kb/ubuntu-remove-old-kernels06:20
quadrathoch2but it shouldn't help much, as the kernels reside on the /boot partition (which is it's own partition) and so you theoretically can't get that space back (for userdata)06:21
uboneis the newest kernel auto selected on boot06:24
quadrathoch2ubone, yes06:24

eliyahuTBRok. i tried that after it didn't work w/o it09:35
eliyahuTBRi get the same results w/o sudo09:35

no-nwhat can I do about Ubuntu/GRUB not detecting Windows 10 on the same drive?10:33
no-nIt didn't say "Install alongside Windows", so I tried fiddling around with partitions and installing. Now I don't get a GRUB menu, so it just boots into Ubuntu.10:34
IarlaI've installed zfs-utils on Ubuntu 16.04. I have a memory stick formatted to zfs (using a simple zpool create command on the device). I can see the USB stick in Disks application, but the stick does not mount. Is there another step I should take?10:36

fremaHello, since a couple of days I am flooded with the system notification under Ubuntu 19.10 "Chromium has been updated. It needs to be restarted for changes to take effect." Being concerned about the security of my system, I want to ask if this is the right forum for questions regarding this issue.10:41
Iarlagrawity: I don't know how far Disks support goes, but I'm really only looking to mount it. Not to manipulate it. But I don't have a /mnt entry in fstab for it so I don't think 'zpool import -R /mnt/usbstick' would work. I thought USB sticks were 'exempt' from needing an fstab entry.10:41
p0afrema: Have you restarted chromium?10:42
fremanot yet10:42
p0aSo what is your question?10:42
fremaI learned that there is no auto-update feature in chromium. So I am concerned.10:43
p0aWhat are you concerned about?10:44
grawityIarla: but that command has nothing to do with fstab entries in the first palce10:44
fremaConcerned about if my system is compromised10:44
ducassezf chromium in 19.10 is a snap, which gets auto-updates10:45
ducassefrema: ^^10:45
Iarlagrawity: ah, okay. I'll try it. How does it know which ZFS device to mount to the mnt location?10:45
fremaok. so I can relax.10:46
grawityfrema: tbh I think you'd still get the same message even if it were updated via apt or any other way10:46
fremaI got about 50 -100 notification in about one minute.10:47
p0aHow can I add a binary file to my left-bar-thingie in my ubuntu?10:47
p0aI compiled a project to get the most recent version and I want to add it to my quick access programs10:47
no-nit looks like I did that yeah heh10:47
no-nthanks all10:47
p0afrema: Did you do anything that would compromise your system in the first place?10:48
kostkonp0a, create a .desktop file for it and place it in ~/.local/share/applications10:48
p0afrema: otherwise, a sophisticated hack that compromises up-to-date software would not be so silly to let you know with 100 chromium update messages10:48
p0akostkon: thank you10:49
fremap0a: I joined a Zoom meeting and after this it happended. Could be just a weird coincidence.10:49
p0afrema: it sounds like a coincidence but if you're too worried about security you should learn some more on the topic10:50
Iarlagrawity: it picked the right device. Thanks :)10:50
p0afrema: why don't you check what your system has updated around the date that you had that Zoom meeting? It would probably include Chromium10:51

CarloWoodHi - I have a serious problem :/.  I can't decrypt files anymore with gpg.  This used to work asking a passphrase on in the terminal where you ran gpg - at some point it changed to getting a pop-up window that asked for my pass phrase - but now NOTHING happens!?  I don't get a popup and the command times out :/14:16
CarloWood>gpg --decrypt secretfile.gpg14:16
tomreynwestor: run     sudo do-release-upgrade -c     three times in a row. is the output always the same? does it always say "Failed to connect to https://changelogs.ubuntu.com/meta-release"?14:16

cyverisCarloWood: Do you have pinentry-curses installed by chance?14:18
ioriawestor, cat /var/lib/ubuntu-release-upgrader/release-upgrade-available14:18
CarloWoodcyveris: yes14:18
westorioria: no such file or directory14:19
CarloWoodShould I deinstall that to get the chance to enter my passphrase in a normal terminal?14:19
tomreynwestor: so apparently wget is broken for some reason. can you access other location susing wget?14:19
ioriawestor, the file on bionic is there; please try again14:19

westoridk14:20
westortomreyn: i will try to download a file via wget , sec14:20
tomreynioria: i would think that /var/lib/ubuntu-release-upgrader/release-upgrade-available is written by do-release-upgrade after it *sucessfully* checked for available upgrades.14:21

CarloWoodI need help with trouble shooting.14:24
lotuspsychjepatience CarloWood when volunteers know, they will reply14:24
tomreynwestor: so your system is configured not to trust the let's encrypt root certificate14:25
CarloWoodI managed to get around pinentry. Thank you cyveris14:25

CarloWoodThe answer was: https://superuser.com/a/521027/80991914:25
cyverisCarloWood: Good job!14:25
CarloWoodAlso it is still not clear why pinentry suddenly stopped showing a popup.14:25
tomreynwestor: maybe you ran     sudo dpkg-reconfigure ca-certificates    at some point and chose not to trust some CA's?14:26
RoseBuson Ubuntu 20.04 I have a network mount via AFP that is not responding.  Via nautilus/files I cannot unmount.  How can i address this via terminal?14:26
westortomreyn: i think no i didn't do that, but maybe it broke somehow else14:26

tomreynwestor: run    sudo dpkg-reconfigure ca-certificates     and choose to trust (select, tick, enable) the "DST_Root_CA_X3"  CA.14:33

westorhttps://termbin.com/hwub14:38
tomreynwestor: i accidentially had wget create a file index.html where you just ran it. use    rm index.html    to delete it.14:38
westorok14:38
tomreynwestor: so the ca certificate bundle is fone on your system, and the system is configured to trust the "lets encrypt" root CA certificate. but your wget does not make use of the CA's your system is configured to trust.14:39

courrierHey guys, I was using LostIRC client so far when I realized it's not SSL-compatible and that... it hasn't been updated for 12 years!15:51

ioriaDumbLDoor,  that extension usually installs in ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions ; so you just disable it in Tweaks ,remove the gnomeGlobalAppMenu and it's done15:52

quadrathoch2with what? editing sources.list? or do-upgrade-release?15:59

quadrathoch2any ppas?16:00

quadrathoch2launchpad repositories16:00

Fevixhow can I check?16:00
quadrathoch2look into /etc/apt/sources.list or /etc/apt/sources.list.d16:01
quadrathoch2is there is something outside of 'normal' ubuntu16:01
FevixFile browser is crashing whenever I try to open it16:01
quadrathoch2hm the first one is a file, the second a directory, so that shouldn't crash16:02
FevixNo, I mean, I click the "Files" icon to open the file manager, it'll show for a few seconds then vanish16:03
FevixI can't even navigate to anything16:03
quadrathoch2did you try to sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade?16:03

RoseBusdoes it consume significantly larger amounts of resources to run a windows-only application in wine as opposed to running it in windows OS?16:08
lotuspsychjeaLeSD: no16:08
quadrathoch2RoseBus, honestly I would say it's roughly the same, but because of drivers for example, some games/apps could run slower/faster16:09
RoseBusquadrathoch2, cool16:10
RoseBusi'm just running kindle for pc, and I just dont want to be sacrificing CPU longevity by using wine+kindle16:11
quadrathoch2there is a reason for example why doom eternal runs like 95% of windows16:11
Fevixquadrathoch2, thanks, full-upgrade fixed!16:12
Ravisankarhi, i installed windows 10 in my laptop and then i installed ubuntu 16.04 lts (i chose something else while installing ubuntu to create partition)16:13
Ravisankarbut after that windows is not showing in the boot menu16:13
Ravisankarif i disable uefi option then it directly goes to windows not showing option to choose ubuntu16:13
Ravisankarif uefi enabled then it goes to ubuntu d16:14
quadrathoch2Ravisankar, seems like you installed windows with the bios option, and ubuntu with UEFi which are not compatible16:14
RoseBusquadrathoch2, what do u mean 95% of windows16:15
quadrathoch2performance :)16:15
Ravisankarquadrathoch2 ok, what needs to be done?16:15
amcsihelp, after upgrading to Ubuntu 19.10 from 19.04, I'm getting an "Emergency Mode" loop... I press Control+D, and then it just says I'm in Emergency Mode and that I have to press Control+D, and so on16:16
=== beaver is now known as Guest543543
RoseBusi dont follow.  you are comparing doom eternal on wine to windows?16:16
quadrathoch2you could install ubuntu as an bios option, or reinstall windows (and then probably ubuntu)16:16
amcsimight something be wrong with my fstab?16:16
amcsiI booted into a bootable Ubuntu 20.04 just now16:16
quadrathoch2amcsi, fstab or grub16:16
RoseBusyou say that doom eternal runs 95% as well on wine as it does on windows?16:16
RoseBusthat's pretty impressive16:17
lotuspsychjeamcsi: 19.04 is eol, upgrading from an eol version can result into issues16:17
quadrathoch2yeah so there is only a small penalty for linux (depends on the gpu)16:17
Ravisankaractullay i said it reverse, if i disable uefi it goes to ubuntu, and if i enable uefi it goes to windows16:17
amcsilotuspsychje, yeah probably. Better late than never though16:17
quadrathoch2okay, so that's way easier to fix :) Ravisankar16:17
amcsiquadrathoch2, grub did seem to load though... could there still be a problem with grub? I do know that it was upgraded16:17
amcsito grub-pc16:18
quadrathoch2amcsi, the config file could maybe just not find the kernel *shrug*16:18
Ravisankarquadrathoch2 do we have any other way to show both the os while booting, without enabling or disabling uefi?16:18
quadrathoch2Ravisankar, sure. is it possible for you to load a live usb?16:18
Ravisankaryeah16:19
quadrathoch2that would be great :)16:19
Ravisankarwhat needs to be done while booting on live usb?16:20
amcsiquadrathoch2, okay, maybe... might that be easy to fix?16:20
amcsihere's my fstab by the way: https://pastebin.com/6mtgQbVQ16:21
quadrathoch2Ravisankar, do you know which of the devices your harddisk is?16:22
Ravisankarsda16:22

quadrathoch2Ravisankar, if it's sda then /dev/sda :)16:23
=== _Unknown__ is now known as Polybius0-
=== Polybius0- is now known as Polybius-
quadrathoch2so just to make sure, in a terminal type lsblk and look for it16:24
quadrathoch2and could you give me the output in a pastebin.com link?16:24
Ravisankarsure16:24
amcsiquadrathoch2, I do notice something written before it says emergency mode: /opt/szeremi-nginx/unts/ttg-vpn.timer:4 Failed to p... (cut off. next line...) ttg-vpn.timer: Timer unit lacks value setting. Refusi (cut off again)16:25
quadrathoch2amcsi, the only big issue I see is, that you mount sda2 twice16:25
amcsiquadrathoch2, I did notice that too. Maybe commenting out the second would help? Also like what I wrote above, could this custom systemd timer cause the entire booting to fail?16:25
quadrathoch2amcsi, try it :)16:26
amcsialright, need to wait for my ubuntu live to boot again16:29
Ravisankarquadrathoch2 here is the output https://pastebin.com/qfPULe2C16:31
amcsisadly fixing fstab didn't work. I'll try doing something with that systemd file16:33
quadrathoch2Ravisankar, did you boot off of the usb stick?16:33
quadrathoch2beause there is only 1 device16:34
Ravisankarohh ok... so first i need to boot through live ubuntu... ok will do16:35
quadrathoch2yeah, sorry for maybe misunderstandings16:35
Ravisankarquadrathoch2 hi here is the new link https://pastebin.com/ncB4qtpb16:41
quadrathoch2Ravisankar, awesome, sudo mount /dev/sda5 /mnt16:43
quadrathoch2and then hm16:43
quadrathoch2it should be sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/boot/efi16:44
quadrathoch2could you verify that there is microsoft folder inside that /mnt/boot/efi folder (or subfolder)16:44
Ravisankarubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/boot/efimount: mount point /mnt/boot/efi does not exist16:45
Ravisankarquadrathoch2 hi here is the new link https://pastebin.com/ncB4qtpb16:46
Ravisankarsorry wrongly pasted16:46
Ravisankarubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/boot/efimount: mount point /mnt/boot/efi does not exist16:46
amcsiquadrathoch2, so neither commenting out the second mount of /dev/sda2 in fstab helped, nor removing this seemingly bad ttg-vpn.timer systemd file. I would try and fix grub now, cause you said it maybe can't find the kernel. do you know how I could do that?16:48
Ravisankarit says mount point does not exist16:48
quadrathoch2Ravisankar, sorry got a phone call right now16:50
Ravisankarquadrathoch2 no problem, :-)  what needs to be done now?16:51
AlexMaxI had a very strange instance where I came back to my computer and my monitor was in sleep mode and would not cut back on.  I had to hit the reset switch.  I don't think there's a consistent issue with sleep per se, because I had let my computer run for a week or so, so I don't think I've run into this issue before.16:52
AlexMaxAlso I had been running Fedora 31 for a month or two before that with no sisues, so I don't think it's a Linux or hardware issue per se.16:52
quadrathoch2Ravisankar, we need to find that efi partition mount  it to that directory and then execute 1 command (that's it then)16:52
AlexMaxThese were the last things in my journalctl befroe I rebooted https://paste.ee/p/BFAkA16:53
Ravisankarquadrathoch2 i used the command "sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt"16:54
Ravisankarand now it shows some directories there16:54
quadrathoch2which ones?16:54
oerheksAlexMax, so steam was doing stuff?16:55
Ravisankar@quar16:55
Ravisankarquadrathoch2 it shows EFI folder there16:55
quadrathoch2awesome, so it was the right partition :)16:55
quadrathoch2so can you umount it again?16:55
quadrathoch2sudo umount /mnt16:55
Ravisankarok sure16:56

Ravisankari will mount sda516:56
AlexMaxoerheks: Supposedly.  Though I'm not quite sure what steam could possibly do to cause my monitor not to cut on.16:56
amcsiquadrathoch2, by disabling "quiet splash" in grub, I see more things listed. Might the failure to mount my windows related /media/sdb5 or /media/Recovery be the problem?16:57

Ravisankarquadrathoch2 sda5 mounted16:57
AlexMaxMost notably a floating phantom cursor in one corner of the screen.16:58
EriC^^Ravisankar: is sda5 the ubuntu partition? "ls /mnt" should verify what's inside16:58
oerhekstons of issues with sleep/hybernate, some fix this by switching to tty1 and back16:58
RavisankarEriC^^ yes it is ubuntu partition16:59

AlexMaxIs there a place where I can get updated kernels for Ubuntu?17:04
AlexMaxFedora kept up to date with kernel releases and I remember some of my issues progressively got less and less as the kernel updated.17:04
lotuspsychjeAlexMax: if you encounter a problem with current kernel, please file a bug17:05
oerheksAlexMax, one could use the mailine repo to see if thing get fixed, but you might encounter other issues, like no nvidia driver support, just open drivers17:05

allizomHi all, I've just installed Ubuntu 20.04 Desktop on a box, but both the login screen and the desktop are showing graphic artifacts. I'm using the default configuration for gdm/gnome. This is my GPU: "NVIDIA Corporation G72 [GeForce 7300 LE] (rev a1)". I'm using nouveau, I have installed nouveau-firmware and rebooted. I have not added any related parameter in grub.17:05

EriC^^Ravisankar: ok, try a quick "ls /sys/firmware/efi" to see if you're booted in uefi mode right now or not17:10
EriC^^if it shows dirs then you're in uefi mode, which is good, otherwise we will try a workaround for the first boot17:10

Ravisankarok?17:12
EriC^^Ravisankar: try "apt-get install grub-efi-amd64-signed"17:12
EriC^^it's expected to fail so no worries there17:12
allizomlotuspsychje, oerheks: Ubuntu 20.04 does not provide proprietary nvidia drivers compatible with my card. I had to install with 'Safe graphics mode' or the installer would crash, I believe that means adding nomodeset to the kernel command line. But if I boot with nomodeset I have no artifacts but a lower screen resolution.17:12

claimHi people - question regarding boot console output: I am on 18.04.4 on a XCP-NG guest. I see the grub2 menu and can work with it or just go ahead and boot the default choice (auto after 5 sec). Then the screen goes blank for about 10-15 sec until I see the timestamped kernel messages. From there on, it is a normal boot. But I think I am missing some console output right after grub starts booting. Any ideas on how to get this missing console output?17:23
RavisankarEriC^^ ok...17:23

Ravisankarok..17:37

Ravisankarok, secureboot means fastboot?17:37

quadrathoch2RoseBus, use apt if you want to isntall also dependencies17:38
RavisankarEriC^^ ok, i will look in the bios setup... won't it show both the os to select?17:38
Ravisankaror do we need some procedure after booting into windows?17:39
EriC^^Ravisankar: right now no, after you boot ubuntu we can set up the efi properly17:39
quadrathoch2Ravisankar, you want to boot ubuntu, so in the grub menu you can choose windows to boot, the other way around it doesn't work17:39
EriC^^right now the live usb is booted in legacy mode, so it cant access the efi variables to set anything17:39
quadrathoch2yeah I was just explaining for later :)17:40
EriC^^yes yes, replying to Ravisankar :)17:40
EriC^^Ravisankar: anyways go for it, see what happens, report back to continue17:40
Ravisankarok, i will boot and will login here again.. :-)17:40
EriC^^alright :)17:41
amcsiquadrathoch2, thanks... but it didn't work. It asked for my password, and then it just hanged. Since in this CLI internet doesn't work, and in fact the ifconfig command can't even be found, I think the system is fundamentally broken. I'm probably just going to have to install a fresh Ubuntu17:41
quadrathoch2amcsi, sounds like the reinstall is easier, just do not try to replicate everything, so we land here in a week again ;)17:42
Psil0Cybinrandom question how does on get into the Ubuntu group? out of curiosity? contributions? or17:42
amcsiquadrathoch2, I'm going straight for Ubuntu 20.04 now :P17:43
quadrathoch2amcsi, you can also break 20.04 :p17:43
amcsiquadrathoch2, oh well, I'm used to it. Upgrading Ubuntu always results in problems :(17:43
amcsithanks for the help anyway17:43
quadrathoch2never had really big issues (i am using linux for about 20ish years)17:44
amcsiand I almost always had issues :/17:44
amcsisince 2010 when I started using Linux17:44
quadrathoch2amcsi, the start is always hard, as most people are so used to windows. but it will get easier :)17:44
RavisankarEriC^^ hi i joined17:45
EriC^^Ravisankar: wb, were you able to boot ubuntu?17:45
quadrathoch2amcsi, well, you see it really depends on how much time do you try to fix linux/windows etc. As I was in my junior when I first started out, I had the time. Nowadays, I would probably be stuck on windows17:46
Ravisankaryes, it directly booted into ubuntu while uefi enabled, but not showing windows17:46
quadrathoch2while fixing, you learn *alot*17:46

quadrathoch2which files :)? i should probably leave it to you then, as I got no idea at which step you are17:47

Ravisankarok, will it show both the os to choose?17:54
EriC^^Ravisankar: it's possible the pc is finicky about booting ubuntu btw, just so you know, in that case we'll have to boot the live usb again, and switch the efi files again and add windows manually17:54
EriC^^Ravisankar: yes17:54
quadrathoch2it should work. but Ravisankar should test to boot windows and then ubuntu again. because sometimes there is a bug and you can't reboot to ubuntu17:55

EriC^^other than that there's the ubuntu uefi help page and archwiki has a lot of good stuff to name a few18:06
quadrathoch2the archwiki has good information, but not everything is 100% copy and paste :/18:07
Ravisankarthank you EriC^^ i will into the website later... actually i have 300 gb space unused in my hard disk now... i want to create ntfs partitions... which will be better to do the same? in ubuntu using  gparted or in windows diskmgmt18:08
Ravisankarif i try to create ntfs partitions will it affect the boot manager?18:09
EriC^^Ravisankar: personally for ntfs i'd use windows tools, in the end ntfs was blindly reverse engineered, and i've not had so much luck with ntfs linux tools sometimes18:09
quadrathoch2Ravisankar, sadly if you want to use it for exchanging files, you need a 'fix' for windows so ubuntu can access it18:09
EriC^^Ravisankar: no, it shouldnt18:09
quadrathoch2Ravisankar, https://www.windowscentral.com/how-disable-windows-10-fast-startup18:10
quadrathoch2if it is enabled, windows will never shut down correctly (it only sleeps) and that's why ubuntu can't access the filesystem18:10
ahmedamericanHello, am new to Ubuntu and i have a question regarding the correct place to put my git repo?

quadrathoch2amcsi, you need to select the partition and mount it as /home. but make sure that it won't get formated18:14
quadrathoch2oh wait18:14
amcsiquadrathoch2, there's no separate /home partition. There's only /18:14
quadrathoch2no, if you would install it over, you would wipe everything18:14
amcsi:(18:14
quadrathoch2do you have any way to backup your files?18:15
Ravisankarquadrathoch2.. thank you for the link... i read the page... i will disable it... EriC^^ thank you... i will create the partitions in windows18:15
amcsiquadrathoch2, I could back them up, yes. Though there are tons of .git projects, so it would take ages to do18:15
oerhekswithout backup, your data is not important :-D18:15
eelstrebortomreyn, thanks18:15
amcsiquadrathoch2, maybe I should reinstall Ubuntu 19.10 first in case it would offer me to keep my home files?18:16
quadrathoch2amcsi, create a seperate /home partition next time :)18:16
anotherandomguyis anyone else missing icons in gnome software center for ubuntu?18:16

anotherandomguyok thanks :-)18:16
EriC^^Ravisankar: ok, no problem18:17
amcsiquadrathoch2, I could swear I found some stackoverflow-like thing where someone said you can reinstall Ubuntu keeping your /home without even having to have it as a separate partition...18:18
oerheksAFAIK; the installer gives the option to reinstall, keeping home..18:19
EriC^^amcsi: yeah i think it's a thing, as oerheks mentioned18:19
amcsiquadrathoch2, the reason I'm thinking of getting an Ubuntu 19.10 live cd is to be offered this first option here: https://cdn.fosslinux.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/06234138/Reinstall-Ubuntu.jpg18:20
EriC^^i'd have my stuff backed up though anyways18:20
amcsianother concern of mine is that my home directory is encrypted with ecryptfs18:20

oerheksinteresting.. good luck!18:21

oerheksinstalling a kde torrent app on gnome.. interesting, well you can, but why?18:47
RoseBusoh wow i didn't realize it came with a native torrent client18:48
RoseBusoerheks, i'm just looking for any damn client to work with!! haha18:48
RoseBusbut when i click a magnet link in chromium i get a popup for allow xdg-open, i click allow, but `Transmission` never opens18:48
oerheksyeah, standard transmission is oke, maybe deluge is a better choise18:49
oerheksmagnet links, save them first.18:49
RoseBusi tried to install deluge via software center, but could not open it after18:49
RoseBusthe site i'm at (tpb) I dont even see a download link for the .torrent, weird18:50

RoseBusuuuggh i need adobe illustrator for an assignment, but they dont support linux!  Playonlinux used to work with adobe creative cloud, but it no longer does, so i'm trying to get a previous version of adobe illustrator, but adobe doesn't provide older versions... i feel like i'm trying to steal software that i already have a license for!!18:55
cgiRoseBus, wine? vbox?18:55
RoseBuscgi, playonlinux uses wine, but adobecreative cloud doesn't work on it due to some internet explorer thing18:56

ioriaRoseBus, i mean you can use  inkscape19:03
RoseBushmm tempting... but since i'm graded on my ability to use illustrator i might need to run this by my professor first... but something tells me she wont like it considering day 1 she grossly misinterpreted the differences between storage & ram19:05

RoseBusshe said something to the extent of saving files of larger size will make your computer slower19:06
RoseBuswhich i mean could be somewhat true if the file size is larger than RAM capacity but i dont think that's what she was thinking19:07
oerhekswindows issues, interesting19:07
Jordan_URoseBus: https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=20 seems to show good support. Is that page out of date?19:09

skookumHi all, can anyone give a hint as to how to get gdisk to recognize that there is additional space on the disk? I've used partprobe and it recognizes the space but gdisk doesn't detect any issues when verifying the disk?19:10

RoseBusJordan_U, version 10 of illustrator is no longer available for download19:11

hggdhM4hdi: if the files in the repositories in the mirror you are using are in the process of being updated, you can get it19:39
M4hdiI have switched the repos, official ones doesn't work, i'm using a repo from china i have found online19:39

M4hdierror is gone using that repo i said about, but so many other users had this problem you can google it, the probem with current repo is that it's a bit slow19:40

M4hdi@oerheks already did this doesn't work19:46
M4hdiyes it's 18.04.3 an older image i have downloaded19:46
oerheksthose iran mirrors are normal to use.. one needs tor to get through?19:46
M4hdino they are ok and fast (if you don't get this error)19:47
M4hdion 20.04 for example, it's great19:47
M4hdii also tried with openvpn19:47

M4hdibut the servers are on the china and they are slow i also need to use openvpn to download speed under 1mbps19:49
oerhekswell, make sure you run propper updates; sudo apt update && sudo apt dist-upgrade19:50
oerheksand have some tea19:51
M4hdithe problem is that when you had this error you can not do apt upgrade :)19:51
EriC^^M4hdi: why dont you use a different mirror then that's closer to you? the china one has nothing special about it19:52
M4hdiother mirrors gives me the hash sum mismatch error19:52
EriC^^M4hdi: did you try openvpn without the china server btw? just to understand the problem19:52
M4hdiyes i did, same problem19:52
EriC^^why are you using openvpn with china anyways?19:53
M4hdiit's because of the old release, but my point is that it shouldn't had this problem at all19:53
M4hdiwithout the vpn the speed goes under 10kbps xD19:53
EriC^^oh19:54
M4hdii do download from ir.archive.ubuntu.com on 20.04 with 40mbps (it's all i can get on LTE in iran)19:54
EriC^^M4hdi: ok, what i'd suggest is, get the normal repos in, try to apt etc, put the errors somewhere in a pastebin and share here19:54
M4hdiok man thanks19:55
EriC^^that way if it says something others can check from their connection to see if anything can be done or something19:55

whitekidneyAnyone else experiencing an increased amount of microstutters and random slowness on 20.04 ?20:21
Kristine86whitekidney I was having GUI issues with Nvidia card. Since, it's been fixed, no more issues20:25
whitekidneyI run an AMD RX 57020:25
whitekidneyIt's happening pretty much everywhere, but I notice it a lot when I browse (FF 75.0)20:25
whitekidneyI have no demanding processes running (64gb ram, AMD 3900x) - the stutters happen every 5-15th second, Even when using IRC and typing I can see it lagging behind every now and then. It's incredibly frustrating20:26
whitekidneyIt was not like this in 19.1020:26
oerheksyou could try ppa:oibaf/graphics-drivers https://launchpad.net/~oibaf/+archive/ubuntu/graphics-drivers?field.series_filter=focal20:41
Jordan_Uwhitekidney: I've heard similar symptoms and haven't seen any helpful solutions yet. Can you try running "dmesg --human --follow" in a terminal and see if anything pops up when the stutters happen?20:47
whitekidneyJordan_U: Thanks for the suggestion, but I have already checked all related logs :(20:48
whitekidneyI could try a newer GFX driver, but I doubt it would help20:48
oerheksand check for a bios update..20:48
whitekidneyUh, I don't see how a bios update would help things. The only difference between 19.10 and 20.04 is.. well.. the upgrade, no HW or other SW changes20:49

SomeUnknownWumpuHi, I need brief upgrade support (19.10 -> 20.04). Upgrade went well until final steps, it was showing me a list of packages that would be uninstalled as "no longer needed", and there was one I'd have preferred to keep around. I misinterpreted the UI and thought I could select/deselect them individually (which would be a neat feature, btw) clicked21:18
SomeUnknownWumpuone, and clicked Keep.This actually, I realize, resulted in keeping the entire list of 230ish packages.The installation is now paused prior to reboot, and I'm wondering if there's any way to go back a step and let it delete it all? Or where I can locate the list of dead weight packages for manual deletion later. Thanks!21:18
nightBulbNot sure, but, I think # apt autremove    should remove un-needed packages.21:22
SuperLagChmEarl: thank you21:23
nightBulbwithout #21:23
SomeUnknownWumpuCool thanks nightBulb, I hoped the answer was something simple like that. :)  Cheers!21:25

JediMasterlspci shows it as a "Intel Corporation HD Graphics 630 (rev 04)". On wind0ws I have dual monitors, 4k on HDMI @ 60Hz, and 4k on DisplayPort @ 60Hz, yet on Ubuntu it's always shows the HDMI as 30Hz on 4k, but detects the monitor, and the 4k DisplayPort monitor it shows as unknown and only at 1024x768, any ideas?22:17

v64don't have any specific advice at this point, doesn't sound like anything exotic though, would just confirm the right services are running on both client and server, check permissions and users/groups, make sure network connectivity is okay23:36
