sarnoldBiruwa: rsync and ssh and so on should keep working as usual00:01
BiruwaThank you.00:01
sarnoldBiruwa: though it's possible your desktop environment is configured to suspend or sleep or similar after some inactivity00:01
BiruwaI see. I'll double-check in my GUI settings, and make sure suspend or sleep is disabled.00:02
BiruwaI want to be able to lock my workstation, and walk away from it - while keeping on-going SSH and RSYNC operations uninterrupted.00:02
sarnoldyeah, it's frustrating to return and find out the machine's done nothing useful for all but fifteen minutes..00:04
pqatsiHello! Something need to be changed on ZFS while using SSDs with Ubuntu? I'm noticing a increased write on SSD while system is idle.00:04
ducassepqatsi: file a bug00:05
sarnoldcompared against ext4 or compared against spinning metal drives?00:05
sarnoldhow are you measuring?00:05
pqatsisarnold: watch -n1 zpool iostat00:06
sarnoldpqatsi: aha :) that's a poor measure; use zpool iostat 1  instead00:06
sarnoldthe first output from zpool iostat is cumulative since boot00:06
=== dtomato3 is now known as dtomato
sarnoldpqatsi: when I'm doing IO-intensive things I tend to use zpool iostat -v 100:07
pqatsisarnold: indeed :)00:07
pqatsisarnold: I'm specially concerned about ssd live. Before Ubuntu 20.04, i was using fedora with btrfs and without issues. ZFS on Linux is a new thing to me, but Im trying to check critical things that may deteriorate the ssd00:08
pqatsisarnold: Another thing I dont know if its a bug or not: zpool trim -d rpool return "cannot trim '/dev/sdb4': trim operations are not supported by this device"00:08
sarnoldpqatsi: not a bad idea, but most ssd lifetimes these days are things like "completely fill the drive from scratch every day for years"00:08
sarnoldpqatsi: oh that's too bad ;(00:09
pqatsisarnold: You got a point here. I'm *very* concerned about the Ubuntu decision to only erases snapshots when disk is near to be full00:09
pqatsisarnold: Its a bug?00:09
pqatsisarnold: With btrfs I did not got the trim command refused00:09
sarnoldpqatsi: I think the last time I went looking for that error message, it's because zfs is looking specifically for devices that *zero* data when they are trimmed -- and some devices don't promise to return zeros, they may return garbage or what was there before00:09
pqatsisarnold: o.000:10
pqatsisarnold: hdparm -I /dev/sdb | grep -i trim returns "* Data Set Management TRIM supported (limit 8 blocks) and * Deterministic read ZEROs after TRIM"00:11
pqatsisarnold: I also enabled autotrim on fs too00:11
BiruwaHow do I reset the CPU colors in gnome-system-monitor? I read that I have to do something with dconf, but I'm not sure where to look...00:12
sarnoldpqatsi: hrm. I wonder what's going on there then :/00:13
pqatsisarnold: may strace give some tip or needs to enable debug someplace to get?00:14
Synx_hmWhere is a good place to read on the current goings on with wayland and nvidia driver support00:14
pqatsisarnold: Can you help-me to report this issue?00:14
sarnoldpqatsi: lets head to #zfsonlinux, they may know off-hand what this is00:15
pqatsisarnold: I'll go there, but a spoiler: removing -d (secure trim), worked apparently00:15
sarnoldpqatsi: aya!00:16
pqatsisarnold: But its a issue?00:16
sarnoldpqatsi: no idea, now :)00:16
pqatsiI'll lead question to zfsonlinux so :)00:16
GumaHello, I am working on script that need to check is specific snap application is installed. If not then install it. with deb I used dpkg-query -W --showformat00:17
pqatsisarnold: About this perspective from Ubuntu to fill system with snapshots until FS is 80% full, how can we avoid this size of snapshots?00:20
pqatsiAlso, there is a way to clean it properly?00:20
pqatsi(Including grub entries, etc)00:20
sarnoldpqatsi: hmm, I don't know those; I installed following the old zfsonlinux wiki guide, so don't have the zsysd thing myself -- I learned to hate having snapshots on my bpool, and now keep them only on my rpool00:22
sarnoldpqatsi: I hadn't been aware that was something we were doing, thanks :) I"ll have to look into it..00:22
Synx_hmsarnold, i think we discussed this yesterday or the day before but did you have to modify the initramfs update from the zfsonlinux wiki guide? the command they use in the guide flat out did not work for me, but produced no error so i didn't figure it out until i got to a grub menu with nothing in it haha00:31
Synx_hmput on the tasklist to do a PR for that00:31
Synx_hmmaybe create a 20.04 updated guide that includes zfs encryption sans luks00:32

=== housecat is now known as dax
ducasseohmyfromage: in short, find the id of your touchpad with 'xinput list', then enable tapping with 'xinput set-prop $ID "libinput Tapping Enabled" 1 and set the mapping with 'xinput set-prop $ID "libinput Tapping Button Mapping Enabled" 1, 0'. you can now right-click with a doubletap and middleclick with three fingers00:58

zapotahit used to be directly underneath python3 and is still on debian06:15
zapotahnow the path to debhelper on ubuntu 20.04 is /usr/share/dh-python/dhpython/06:15

zapotahthats...odd then07:23
zapotahoh07:24
zapotahdebpython is still in place07:24
zapotahhowever for whatever reason debhelper is not in there07:24
zapotahmaybe a packaging bug?07:24
oldguyzapotah: my debpthon contains files07:26
oldguyzapotah: and I hve no dh--python on my systems07:27
zapotaholdguy: is debhelper.py in debpython there?07:31
zapotaholdguy: having files does not exactly mean much :P07:32
zapotahor if you install it, does it end up in debpython07:32
oldguyzapotah: files in folder are  __init__.py files.py interpreter.py option.py version.py and __pycache_07:34
oldguyzapotah: I must admit I dont know that this package is. I have checed on a freshly installed vm (is I have not installed anything) - The folder and files are as I have listed them07:36
zapotaholdguy: yes, i know that much, debhelper should however be in there and this is likely a packaging bug07:38
oldguyzapotah: i'm not really qualified to judge - though may I repeat that i cannot find any trace of  a folder called dh-python07:41
zapotaholdguy: because you do not have debhelper installed07:43
oldguyzapotah: My Bad I have confused  debpython and debhelper : (      I will install debhelper and check07:48
badbodhwill 18.04 get kernel from 20.04 as hwe kernel or stick to the current version till eol ?08:00
oldguyzapotah: OK hve just pip3 install debhelper.  It was installed to ~/.local/python3.8/site-packages/    There is a file there called debhelper.py. It  can be imported .....08:04

absencei'm on ubuntu 19.10, but do-release-upgrade says there's no new release found. how do i make it detect that 20.04 was released?08:21
ducasseabsence: use -d08:24
DJonesabsence: There is always a delay before the upgrades show up, I think the release notes said it would be a few days, I'd say keep checking each day08:24
oldguyzapotah: I just  'apt download debhelper'  I then extracted the files from the package it contains a number of perl scripts, but no python files.  I don't  think it is a matter of packaging ... they seem to be different packages08:25
absencei see, will using -d have any other effects than forcing the upgrade? i see the option is called "development release"08:27
zapotaholdguy: propably dh-python in that case08:28
zapotahtheres other issues with debhelper in regards to venv08:28
zapotahbut those are besides the point08:29
oldguyzapotah:  I juust d'ld and extracted dh-python. This does contain dh-python/dhpyton/debhelper.py.  I think  I have already said - I have no Idea what this package does I dont think i can be of any further help08:39

coconutWould a "factory color calibration" have the same improvement under linux as under windows?11:50
rorycoconut: are you referring to an optional customisation a vendor is offering for a device shipping a choice of Linux or Windows?11:51
roryor is this something that's built into the display hardware?11:52
excited_buddhatatertots it was a lie. I have not.11:53
roryif the latter, it'll be exactly the same under both Linux and Windows.11:53
coconutrory, no nothing build into the monitor, just a callibration in factory done once with the laptop with Windows on it.(which i will wipe)11:56
coconutrory, do you think it's better not to do so?11:59
roryif you care about this, you should contact the vendor, imo, because it might be a BIOS/hardware thing, or it might be a Windows thing.12:02
coconuti had the same thinking, thank you rory12:05
vuurdraakhi everybody, i have a weird behavior of firefox in ubuntu 18.04 lts, ever since it opened on the 2nd user space below the first one, while i was running a program in wine, now when i open firefox it keeps opening in the 2nd user space, and refuses to open ion the active user space, anybody got an idea why this might be happening ? even if i move ff to the 1st user space, later it decides to open n the non active 2nd user space anyway12:18

dbuggerI have a question. I know the answers are subjective, but Id like to know other opinions. I was thinking of buying a new GPU, and I was wondering which one will give me less headaches. I have used NVidia so far, and the performance is great, but GOD i cant stop the screen tearing. This has been happening to me for ages over and over. What do you guys think? Would I be better off with a AMD?13:10
walter__DJones, I believe speedtest-cli is meant to test speed I currently on power off troubles.13:10
DJoneswalter__: ok,I thought you were just looking for a internet speed test utility13:11
Psi-Jackdbugger: Subjective? Well, facts are facts. Not subjective. but ATI/AMD on GPU, has always been problematic. It's "getting better", but it's not yet there in terms of quality support yet in the world of linux.13:11
dbuggerFYI, I have a NVidia GTX 97013:12
Psi-JackI have the GTX 960. Works great.13:12
dbuggerWorks fine too, but the screen tearing keeps coming back, over and over. I dont know what do to anymore13:13
walter__dbugger, well, some critics are biased to nvidia if the problem is not money13:13
Psi-JackI have not had screen tearing.. In... Ever.13:13
dbuggerWell, Money is a factor. But I am looking more for a "problem free" life :P13:14
solarlinerI only have screen tearing on my second screen of my dual screen setup but that might be due to the fact it's connected directly to the motherboard instead of the graphics card13:14
Meaxissarnold and Mordoc, I have some updates: according to my host, they - did not alter the network and - did not alter the machine in itself13:15
solarlinerSo my primary screen works great, but the tearing on the second screen is just unbearable13:15
MeaxisI think I'm going to reinstall the OS, unless you have a better idea?13:15
Psi-Jackdbugger: Are you using the same monitor connector type from the video card? Not mixing HDMI+DP+DVI, etc to your displays?13:16
dbuggerPsi-Jack, I have 3 screens. I might have 1 to HDMI, but the other 2 are Display Port13:17
Psi-JackThere you go.13:17
Psi-JackThat'll cause screen tearing.13:17
dbuggerReally??13:17
Psi-JackYes, really.13:17
dbuggerLet me check...13:17
dbuggerOk, yes... so I should use all 3 with DisplayPort to the GPU?13:18
Psi-JackCorrect, all /same interface/ connector.13:19
Psi-JackThat's critical.13:19
dbuggerI would have never guessed it...13:19
Psi-JackWhich is why I asked about your setup. :)13:19
walter__the problem here is not an important one. but it's the only thing left to make the system round13:19
dbuggerThanks, mate. I will get me a 3rd DisplayPort cable13:19
Psi-Jackdbugger: Does your graphics card have 3 native DP ports?13:19
dbuggerPsi-Jack, yeah, 2 DP and one HDMI13:20
dbugger3DP13:20
Psi-JackCool :)13:20
Meaxisdoes anyone know how to fix the [Waiting for headers] apt problem?13:20
Psi-JackMy older 960, I had uniquely gotten with DVI in mind. LOL13:20

samfisherHi. I somehow deleted my /boot partition /dev/sdb1 2G EFI System. Think is I cannot boot ubuntu anymore and I am now in a liveCD13:22
dbuggerEven thought, for reason... I seem to recall that once I tried connecting all 3 monitors to DP, and one of them was not working...13:22
dbugger*for some reason13:22
Psi-JackSo, yeah. DP all the way then, if you want to drive 3 displays. Now, I can't say ultimately that will work as well as hoped, BUT, it's got a much higher chance /to/ work, because of the same interface control.13:22
samfisherthe / is still there, I can access it but I really need help reconstructing /boot and grup13:23
dbuggerWell, I guess I can try. DP cable is not much13:23
Psi-JackRight.13:23
walter__of course, you must master the technical hability to help, otherwise, words on the wind13:26
samfishermy /boot now shows as EFI and no boot flag is there. i tried chrooting and installing grub but still the same13:27

Psi-Jackkevindank: cp oldfile newpath/13:39
JimBuntuechoSMILE: MAC are sometimes built at firmware load during boot up and in those cases it's generally based off the manufacturer prefix and some other data like a serial number for the device that is stored somewhere internally. If that serial number changed, then the MAC could change. It's not normally an issue, but it can happen.13:39
Psi-JackIf the serial number changes, there's something horribly wrong going on. :)13:40

wedrlike, my account nickname is wedr, but my sign-on username is different than "wedr".14:21
wedrYou need to play around with hexchat settings just to make it so you sign-onto an IRC network, it needs to automatically change your nickname14:22
zhanxwedr, that is just settings14:23
wedrthe initial configurations require you to play with the settings first14:23
wedrthat is, you set your default IRC network, what username/password/authentication process you want to use, and then set up commands to execute before you complete the login14:24
wedrThat's the only part of hexchat that I feel it's confusing.14:24

MonsieurBonHi all15:43
luna_hey15:43
MonsieurBonIs there a reason the update-manager is not showing the dist upgrade to 20.04 yet? When I run 'update-manager -d' it is shown, but it tells me it is still a development release. Is it still ok to install this way?15:44
luna_MonsieurBon: it is it will show when 20.04.1 is released during the summer15:45
luna_but its released so its okay to update now15:45

MonsieurBonluna_, even if I have the setting set to "any new release"?15:45

bluefox83well, just upgraded to 20.04 and i must say, it started up waaaaaay faster than anything it's ever run :)16:33
CrazySam<cryptopsy> looks like i need windows 10 to update my bios driver16:33
Psi-JackWell, trolls do exist.16:33
sentimentHello. I need some help please.I did search the web to no avail. The issue started when I swappd my PCI GPU for the IGP. I did it by changing the bios setting to deactivate the PCI card and activate the IGP. Now after booting Ubuntu 19.10 the interface doesn't list any networks and disabling and renabling it has no effect. When I boot into Windows it's the same issue, but at least disabling and16:34
sentimentreenabling the driver activates the network adapter and it then works. I suspect it has something to do with the agpmode radeon setting , it was set to -1 and the lspci command complained about that line so I commented that line out and I still can't conenct to wifi networks.16:34
bluefox83CrazySam: there is likely a tool for linux somewhere that will let you update it16:34
Psi-JackIGP?16:34
sentimentit's a shame that there's no proper doc about agpmode setting and I have to sift through the forums16:35
sentimentPsi-Jack: yes?16:35
Psi-JackWhat... is... IGP?16:35
CrazySamcryptopsy: I don't know about that, but Aorus "Ultra" sounds like a very expensive board not to be able to update the BIOS without Windows and Ubuntu, and even without a CPU if you're lucky.16:35
sentimentPsi-Jack: Integrated Graphics Processor16:35
sentimentbasicaly onboard gpu16:35
Psi-Jack...16:36
Psi-Jacknew acronyms. Wonderful.16:36
CrazySamcryptopsy: But you don't need a BIOS driver for neither Ubuntu nor Windows. BIOS doesn't care about your OS.16:36
sentimentcan you help please?16:36
Psi-JackIt's an unusual problem, and sounds more hardware related than anything.16:38
sentimentwhat is the paste command on this channel?16:38
sentimentI can post the tail of journalctl /usr/sbin/Networkmanager16:39
sentimentit has some log about the problem16:39
CrazySamcryptopsy: it's a good idea to do your research before an upgrade or clean install of any OS. It sounds like it's what you are doing. But you have to weight in the age of that SU post you found. It's from 2019.16:39
sentimentPsi-Jack: it's a conflict with the gpu I suspect16:39
sentimentand somehow it affects the wifi driver16:39
CrazySamcryptopsy: it's always a good idea to update your BIOS before a OS install, regardless if it's Windows or Ubuntu you're installing. Perhaps more so if you're installing Windows.16:40
sentimentPsi-Jack: you know how I know that?16:41
CrazySamI hope he got the message. :) I was being helpful.16:41
sentimentbecause when I disable the wifi driver and reload it again, it complains: ibkmod: ERROR ../libkmod/libkmod-config.c:656 kmod_config_parse: /etc/modprobe.d/radeon.conf line 1: ignoring bad line starting with 'agpmode=1'16:41
sentimentcan someone at least explain to me what on earth is agpmode?16:42
sentimentit used to work with my PCI GPU16:42
Psi-JackSounds like user error.16:42
sentimentpardon?16:42
Psi-Jackwhy do you specifically set “agmode” ?16:42
sentimentI commented it out to no effect16:42
sentimentit had something to do with gpu acceleration I think16:43
sentimentI don't remember though16:43
sentimentanyways, removing it had no effect16:43
Psi-JackEither way . That’s only for the video16:44
sentimentthen why does it complain about agpmode when I disable and re-enable the wifi driver using modprobe?16:44
sentimentis it a generic informative error?16:45
sentimenti.e will it happen with any driver?16:45
Psi-JackLikely16:45

Nitrigaurvimart, to wake the card up ,so to speak?19:27
ioriaNitrigaur,  check 'Override' select internal mic -> apply -> reboot19:28
vimartNitrigaur: yes :-)19:28
ioriaNitrigaur,  if not working, uncheck -> apply > reboot again19:29

Guest_0Hello all, I can't connect to the internet from my laptop on ubuntu server 20.04. I think I see the interface but I am unable to bring it up. Any tips? I'm a total newbie.19:30
Nitrigaurioria, I can't apply it, the device claims to be busy19:31
NitrigaurMaybe because I started it from the cmdline?19:31
ioriaNitrigaur, i don't think so19:32
Nitrigaurioria, this is the error I get: tee: /sys/class/sound/hwC0D0/reconfig: Device or resource busy19:33
sarnoldGuest_0: have you found this yet? https://netplan.io/19:33
Guest_0Yes, I have tried both static and dhcp19:34

ioriaNitrigaur,  Kill pulseaudio and give it another try.19:35
Nitrigaurioria, yes, found it at the archwiki (amazing resouce that :-) )19:36
ioriayeah19:36
Nitrigaurioria, pulseaudio keeps respawning. Typically Poettering...19:37
ioriathat's normal19:37
ZenixHi19:38
ioriaNitrigaur,  well, skip 'Apply' and  'Install boot override' and reboot19:39
Nitrigaurioria, alright will do.19:40
Nitrigaurioria, I'm back. After using hdajackretask, my camera cannot be found anymore19:47
ioriaNitrigaur,  your camera ?19:48
Nitrigaurioria, yes ,the built-in webcam called isight no longer works19:48
ioriaNitrigaur,  hdajackretask  has no impact on usb devices (pci and stuff)19:48
RoseBushello, i'm watching lecture in zoom (browser-only mode) and it keeps periodically dropping the audio and i have to leave & rejoin the zoom meeting to get audio back19:50
RoseBusnone of the other members of meeting this is happening to19:50
RoseBusyesterday I followed these instructions to "attempt" to set default audio device, but it didn't work.  https://askubuntu.com/questions/1038490/how-do-you-set-a-default-audio-output-device-in-ubuntu-18-0419:52
Nitrigaurioria, in that case it's a strange side coinincidence. My Micron/ iSight camera used to be included in the list of lsusb19:52
RoseBuscould this be causing the issue?19:52
ioriaNitrigaur,  anyways, you can revert it   uncheck ->  'install' > reboot again19:52
Nitrigaurioria, ah, it has reappeared, but it asks for firmware to be loaded, which should have been fixed since Kernel 3.019:53
ioriaNitrigaur,  no idea about that19:54
Nitrigaurioria, I'll try to load the firmware to see if that makes any difference, though this should not be necessary any more19:55
ioriaok19:55
SiecjeI just installed postgres using apt but I can't connect to it.19:56
ioriaNitrigaur,  heading out, gl19:57
Nitrigaurioria, thank you once more for all the help, stay safe19:58
julius__hi20:18
julius__just tried installing ubuntu on a usb stick before the new drive comes.....so i booted the installer from the first stick, but in the instal process i could not choose sdb or any device to install too in the manual partition version.  is there some kind of trick?20:20
Jordan_Ujulius__: How big was the USB stick you were planning to install to? Can you provide screenshots of the installer, along with the output of "sudo blkid" from the LiveUSB?21:05
julius__16gb stick21:06
julius__i sadly shut the system down, will run that command tomorrow21:06
julius__what warning signs could blkid show?21:07
Jordan_Ujulius__: One (unlikely) possibility is that it would show proprietary FakeRAID metadata, which I know in past releases has caused the installer to not show a disk as an option. More than that though, it will just give me a concrete sense of what you have, help me rule out certain possibilities (like FakeRAID metadata), and might give surprising output that would give a clue. This is mostly a fishing21:09
Jordan_Uexpedition at this point :)21:09
julius__:)21:10
julius__thanks for the input, meal is almost ready21:10
julius__maybe we meet tomorrow21:10

thumbfingerEver since I upgraded from 19.10 to 20.04 my system appears to stop responding to keyboard and mouse input when left idle, and the screensaver never comes up (I believe it becomes unresponsive when the screensaver is *supposed* to come up, but I haven't actually timed it).  What would the best way for me to troubleshoot this be?21:38
ppavacicI have same problem on Ryzen21:39
leftyfbppavacic: Sorry, but we cannot support PopOS here.21:39
thumbfingerMy computer does not freeze, by the way, my weather applet updates, time keeps up, CPU and Network Activity applets continue to provide output, and my cursor moves.21:40
ppavacicleftyfb I know, I know21:40
eelstreborwhat would cause a usb drive to launch vlc?21:40
leftyfbppavacic: then please stop asking for help with it21:41
leftyfbthumbfinger: try adding this to your kernel parameters: usbcore.autosuspend=-121:45
arooniso i really managed to mess up my fonts on ubuntu 18.04 ; i have a live usb drive i made;  is it enough to simply move /etc/fonts to /etc/notmyfonts anymore and copy over the /etc/fonts from the live cd to my current system?21:57
thumbfinger@leftyfb Thanks, is there a known bug introduced that caused that?  What exactly is that doing?  I only ask because I can move the cursor, but I just can't click anything.22:04
sarnoldarooni: probably not, a lot of font config is also in your home directory, and I think some in /var/cache/fontconfig, not sure where else22:04

pabtw, the damn -51 kernel broke audio on X1 Carbon Gen722:07
pai wonder if canonica tests these kernels but at all..22:08
Bashing-omarooni: Maybe something like ' sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup ' : It would guide you through the steps to choose a font and font-size.22:09
leftyfbpa: did you send them a 7th gen X1 for them to test?22:10

nikolamI can't install Ubuntu at all (20.04) ona a newly created partition on a SSD.22:24
Jordan_Uthumbfinger: Can you pastebin the output of "dmesg" now? Has the problem occured this boot?22:24
Jordan_Unikolam: What happens when you try?22:25
nikolamI have currently 2 partitions on that SSD, MS Windows Boot and MS Windows System partition and Windows loader in MBR.22:25
arooniBashing-om:would putting the /etc/fonts back as it was intended help at all ? via live cd?22:25
nikolamI then use installer, after booting from Live USB, and I create new Btrfs partition and set it as root (/). It just spit out I/O errors during install and that's it.22:26
Jordan_Unikolam: Can you pastebin the output of "dmesg" after some of these IO errors? It sounds like your drive might be dying.22:27
nikolamPreviously I used to have in dual-boot 18.04 , then 19.04 and 19.10 and at one moment My Btrfs partition failed to boot (GRUB were ok), and I had to recover data with Btrfs tools.22:27
nikolamAnd then I failed to install with 19.10, 20.04 beta and 20.0422:27
nikolamjust a sec Jordan_U22:27
Bashing-omarooni: Kinda playing with your issue - be aware system fonts are "  /usr/share/fonts/ " .22:28
nikolamJordan_U, SMART info seems OK, I just managed to install MS windows to the free space and recovered MS windows in MBR so I again have a free space22:28
Jordan_Unikolam: You should also check yout disk's S.M.A.R.T. status: https://help.ubuntu.com/stable/ubuntu-help/disk-check.html.en22:28
arooniBashing-om: when i was messing with stuff i only messed with /etc/fonts22:29
arooniso i was planning on just replacing that directory22:29
Bashing-omarooni: /etc/fonts are config files .22:29
nikolamJordan_U, https://pastebin.com/8tKHtqBK22:30
arooniright i think i messed those up; i was trying to get emojis working and failed22:30
Jordan_Uarooni: Do you have notes on what exactly you did to your fonts? Was there a guide you were following?22:30
arooniJordan_U: i was just helped along by someone from #alacritty and i think i forgot to make backups of the directories/config files i was messing with22:31
Bashing-omarooni: 18.04 xfce4 directories: 12288 Jul 15  2019 conf.avail - 12288 Sep 24  2019 conf.d - 2582 Oct 28  2017 fonts.conf.22:31
aroonii think i 1) removed some font rules 2) removed the package infintium or something what that's called, 3) and now fonts look all janky and terrible even after messing with gnome tweaks22:32
nikolamJordan_U, No errors in SMART for that SSD drive...22:33
thumbfingerJordan_U I can pastebin the output once it happens.  I have to force shut down when it happens, so it hasn't happened this boot.  I'm going to go make dinner, so it **will** happen.22:33
Jordan_Unikolam: OK, those IO errors are from the LiveUSB. Can you run the integrity test at boot and confirm that it succeeds?22:34
Jordan_Uarooni: Do you keep IRC logs?22:34
BliepoWhich SSD drive is this? And what is the problem?22:35
Jordan_Uthumbfinger: Keeping "dmesg --human --follow" running in an ssh session seems like a good idea.22:35
nikolamYes I have run it multiple times. It seems to me that it refuses to install on BTRFS, because it creates swap on CoW drive and then fails to install..22:35
nikolam[  290.589700] BTRFS warning (device sda3): swapfile must not be copy-on-write [  295.813813] SQUASHFS error: zlib decompression failed, data probably corrupt [  295.813815] SQUASHFS error: squashfs_read_data failed to read block 0x1d26aea22:35
arooniJordan_U:well i will going forward now22:35
arooniapparently not :(22:35
nikolamI have been testing USB drive multiple times22:36
nikolamAlso 19.10 install has same problem as 20.04. I had been using 19.10 but it were update from 19.04 , last install was with 18.0422:37
nikolamMaybe if I create swap partition to have it just during install. I now just disable swap after install, not to trash SSD.22:38
sarnoldif you're swapping hundreds of gigabytes each day you need to buy more RAM ASAP22:39
Jordan_Unikolam: The squashfs errors confuse me. Squashfs used to store the vast majority of the data on the LiveUSB, and is only really used outside of Live environments with snaps.22:39
Jordan_Us/Squashfs used/Squashfs is used/22:39
nikolamI bet installer is broken when installing on Btrfs since 19.10..22:39
nikolamLet me try with separate swap partition and see22:40
nikolamhttps://pastebin.com/bzyawc5u22:43
Jordan_Unikolam: Please pastebin the output of "mount" so we can see what squashfs filesystems you have mounted.22:44
cgiapt install spellcheck - not working in 20.04lts - can anyone tell me why?22:44
sarnoldnikolam: is that the installer? did it perform an integrity check at boot?22:45
nikolamJordan_U, https://pastebin.com/TWPsaQQn22:45
nikolamsarnold, it is live session from USB and then installer started from live session desktop.22:46
nikolamYes it passes check when I force it to check22:46
nikolamIt is HP ProDesk 600 G1 machine.22:46
nikolamIt behaves the same when I tested installing with installer directly, when I tested with 20.04 Beta22:47

Jordan_Unikolam: The only squashfs filesystem is from the LiveUSB. I don't know what the problem is, but it seems unrelated to btrfs. Can you try with another LiveUSB? Can you try adding the "toram" kernel parameter? (toram will copy all files into RAM at boot, thus never needing to read from the USB drive again).22:48

cryptopsyplease tell me how to ssh as root23:26
Jordan_Ucryptopsy: In the Ubuntu LiveUSB there's an "ubuntu" user setup, and there's no ssh server setup. I'm confused as to how you're able to install ssh but not add a new user, or setup a password for the Ubuntu user.23:29

cryptopsyis rsync over sshfs much slower than using rsyncd ?23:42
sarnoldI've never benchmarked it, but I expect the sshfs approach to be slower, potentially much slower on subsequent runs23:44
