[00:09] in ubuntu most of the binaries that run without having to set the path are in /usr/bin?

[00:19] *Sorry, very quick question, not very quickly [00:20] you mean bookmarks? [00:20] I mean everything [00:20] theres a option on firefox [00:20] History, bookmarks, saved data, containers [00:20] with the account [00:20] can't use the account [00:20] why? [00:21] just find the windows profile dir [00:21] no internet [00:21] if it works the same [00:21] you can save bookmarks with a generated. html file [00:21] and import them on your os [00:21] the bookmarks are the least important [00:22] it's mainly all the containers and history [00:22] copying the profile dir is enough then? [00:22] check where is saved the history and copy that [00:23] i have no idea, its just a suggestion [00:23] with that at least you could see the directions in a .txt maybe [00:23] profile dirs have been all ive needed between computers before, but always either a mac or linux [00:23] windows probably works the same though [00:23] because firefox isnt "installed" the same way in both os === semeion is now known as mnemonic [00:43] which package to install the whole budgie desktop? [00:43] sudo apt install budgie-desktop-environment or budgie desktop? [00:46] goddard: See: ' apt show budgie-desktop ' and go from there " This package installs the minimal GNOME based package-set". [00:48] Bashing-om: not sure if it is right or now but looks like it installed very little apps [00:48] ive never tried solus before or budgie spin [00:48] is that normal? [00:49] goddard: I expect as the description indicates "minimal" that will only install what is absolutely required and none else.

[01:10] goddard: file /etc/systemd/system/display-manager.service [01:12] ahh looks like it is a sym link that points to lib/systemd/system/lightdm [01:12] repoint that as needed [01:18] ahh so budgie doesn't work with lightdm i guess === KindTwo is now known as KindOne [01:32] sarnold, thanks [01:32] anyone know how to fix scaling in budgie?

I have recently installed Lubuntu 18.04.4 i386 to a USB stick and it is painfully slow, even by USB boot standards (have used Lubuntu on a stick going back to 12.04, so have some familiarity with performance hit). I suspect it is related to this error [https://pastebin.com/yRMzqH3B] which pops up whenever I try to install a package and also during the installation process (which took forever). I have found an alleged fix [16:16] for said error here [https://gist.github.com/jeffcogswell/62395900725acef1c0a5a608f7eb7a05] but it seems to apply to GNOME and I believe lubuntu uses LXDE. Wondering if anyone has any feedback or suggestions at all? === HerVonW is now known as mariusvw [16:28] oh boy, I just read the topic :( [16:30] :) === DarthFrog is now known as Frogger- [16:35] is it safe to assume that all methods of installing a debian package will use dpkg at their core? [16:38] yes as default afaik, all debian based package managers use dpkg [16:39] thanks! :) [16:46] someone talk with me on https://meet.google.com/wfm-mvyy-tud [16:51] bogsuv: 1) Please don't send the same message to lots of IRC channels, it counts as spam and is liable to cause unforseen consequences courtesy of freenode antispam measures. 2) #ubuntu is a technical support channel, not a chat zone. [16:51] ok [16:53] can anyone help me out with the above query? everyone knows #lubuntu isn't as good as #ubuntu, I just need muh lightweight variant :( [16:58] slowstoop, I don't see much reason to believe that this error is related to your performance issue. [17:00] i thought some of the lighter weight default desktop ubuntu versions were actually "official", hmm [17:00] maybe just not the lxde one [17:00] lordcirth, I suspect the error is being generated constantly in the background, and thr writes to the USB are gumming up the system [17:01] i would guess either it's a slow usb stick or for some reason it's not using full usb3 speed or something [17:01] more than a software/distro issue making it "slow" [17:01] but in either case, I would like to solve that error, and then I can go from there on the overall slowness [17:02] joshh, I have other boot sticks, none of them are this laggy. and I usually run off a 2.0 but my hardware allows 3.0 booting, so it should be the peppiest its ever been. [17:02] its probably harmless, i'd just search the code to try to see why it's getting logged, unlikely someone will just point exactly to the problem from that one line [17:02] can I ask how I view the system events from the CLI in real time? [17:03] slowstoop, sudo iotop will tell you what processes are doing IO [17:03] albeit not what files [17:03] cuz I can tell r/w's are happing constantly from the USB access light [17:05] what kind of system events do you mean? [17:05] lordcirth, ty installing iotop now will check [17:05] joshh, errors presumably [17:07] most kernel errors should be in dmesg, other stuff in syslog or systemd/journalctl, etc [17:07] but other events need to be traced differently [17:08] lordcirth, hrmm, iotop doesn't seem to show anything unusual [17:09] out of curiosity what do you do with a gui from a usb? some kind of work on the physical host system from it? [17:10] joshh, a milion things really, but yeah system recovery is on that list [17:10] i wonder how the same usb stick would do with regular ubuntu with lxde installed, if you think the distro might be a factor [17:10] but if the lubuntu is all patched and configured the same as other working systems, who knows [17:11] i'm not loving lobuntu lately... its just ive been running it for so long, and my gf loves it so trying to coalesce around just the one distro for the household. they switched from LXDE in 20.04 which I'll put on my actual hard drive and see how it goes [17:12] Why is gimp-python not available in 20.04? [17:12] but I do need to fix this. what can be causing this error message? https://pastebin.com/yRMzqH3B [17:13] there is an apparent solve here, which either adds a package for gnome, or involves disabling it altogether. but I'm not sure what org.a11y.Bus even does [17:14] slowstoop: from googling that error it looks like installing install at-spi2-core fixes it (2 separate github discussions i saw) [17:14] how can you get dash with line editing as a package? [17:14] joshh, that's what I was gonna try, but it seems to alude to some GNOME problem but I am not running GNOME so... I was unsure what to try [17:15] even without gnome proper, you might have other things installed that either try to use it, use the same libs, work with it if it's available and log if not, etc [17:15] trying now [17:16] funkyelf, gimp-python is python2, one must look for the python3 version? [17:16] i see a pgimp for python3 in pip, is that the same? [17:17] oerheks, does this exist? [17:17] funkyelf, just saying what is going on, python2 is EOL [17:17] well, one can install python2 in 20.04... [17:18] oerheks, I'm aware... I'm a python developer. I have python2 installed, don't know what pulled it in, but it's there [17:18] even though you can install python2 itself now, they did definitely remove a lot of python2 only modules [17:18] i would switch and look for 3 [17:18] oerheks, does gimp work with python3? there is no gimp-python3 package in Ubuntu [17:20] is this not it? https://pypi.org/project/pgimp/ [17:21] ok going for a reboot. thanks guys and will return [17:21] joshh, +1 [17:33] ok i think that solved all my problems [17:33] nice [17:33] speed too? [17:33] access light isn't having a coniption fit at all times [17:33] now the true test.. chromium lol [17:35] yeeesssss! fixed. everything is peppy, will check if error is still occuring on package installs but THANK YOU joshh and others! [17:36] awesome [17:38] How to find the differences between debian non free and ubuntu? [17:39] joshh, yes system speed is much improved, more like what I expected. thank you! [17:39] np but all i did is suggest what you were going to do anyway :) [17:40] lol yeah, but you gave me the confidence! [17:44] slowstoop hint : Brave browser is a faster and more secure chromium based browser [17:45] MonkeyDust: feel free to take software opinions to #ubuntu-offtopic [17:48] which package must i install when running ubuntu inside virtualbox ? [17:49] ph88_: for what? [17:50] for making the screen area bigger [17:51] MonkeyDust, will investigate... just using chromium as my 'open browser' for now. brave is well supported and developped? [17:51] what's the meaning of "blinking" terminal ? color goes from dark to light and back [17:52] like an alarm of some kind, but doesn't tell me what's the alarm about - I could guess it's because battery is almost over (red icon) [17:52] but still, battery estimator says there's still 1h+ left so I don't even know why it complains [17:52] slowstoop come to #ubuntu-offtopic to discuss Brave [17:53] oh, I just realized [17:53] it does this kind of thing when there'a another window on the background [17:53] really annoying [17:53] ph88_: i assume you mean virtualbox-guest-additions-iso [18:00] quadrathoch2, i installed that package now but the screen area is not getting bigger [18:01] ph88_: which DE are we talking about, as I know with KDE Plasma there are issues [18:02] default one [18:02] hm that always worked for me :/ [18:02] even without any drivers ph88_ [18:02] :/ [18:08] Hey, can i upgrade a machine via ssh? do-release-upgrade? [18:09] yes akem [18:09] Ok, thanks quadrathoch2. [18:14] Hi, I just upgraded from 16.04 to 18.04, and then from there to 20.04. The problem is, after upgrading the gui has been extremely sluggish, with keyboard inputs taking up to a second to process. Is there a known solution for this or should I go for a clean new install? [18:15] try Lubuntu saegi [18:15] Any budgie users here? [18:15] Any idea, why i get this message: https://gist.github.com/akem3210/1e83290344404469a9864ad1107c1b1c [18:15] saegi, I'd go for the clean install. Distribution upgrades seem to cumulate fixes tha make things unreliable and slow [18:16] The computer runs 18.04.02 LTS. [18:16] 18.04.2 i mean. [18:16] akem I think because the official 20.04 LTS support hasn't been rolled out yet [18:16] for 18.04 LTS [18:16] I think the date is set for July end [18:17] I did something to force upgrade [18:17] JadugarPasha, Ha ok, i didn't know. Thanks. [18:18] But the upgrade is stable so I suggest you do it. [18:18] thanks younder, ph88_ [18:19] akem: you first have to update to the latest ubuntu 18 release (which is 18.04.4 [18:19] and if you really want to upgrade you need to give the command another -d (as in development) as the official upgrade happens with 20.04.1 [18:20] quadrathoch2, What is the command to upgrade to 18.04.4 please? I thought do-release-upgrade would take care of that. [18:21] I don't see it in my tutorial. [18:21] akem: it's the normal apt update && apt upgrade [18:23] quadrathoch2, Hm, it says: 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. [18:24] hm then you should be on 18.04.4 not .2 ;) so try out 'do-release-upgrade -d' [18:24] hi can anybody tell me what is livepatch and if it's any better than apt update && apt upgrade? [18:25] it's patching into live menu [18:25] it's a very different approach [18:25] and has a very different usecase [18:25] menu ??? memory [18:25] imi sure you know what livepatch is, yes it is better than apt, as it does not require your input [18:26] * for LTS only [18:26] Thx quadrathoch2, looks like it works now. It tells me it is not recommanded to do it via ssh, i'll do it on the physcial machine instead :P [18:28] akem: yeha, something could go wrong, and without any way to interact with the computer is kinda bad then [18:33] quadrathoch2, I always keep a monitor and a keyboard at hand just in case [18:33] younder: as long as you have the opportunity for that sure. but not in a datacenter ;) [18:33] Have a weird situation occurring with Ubuntu Server and a scan that just reported a CVE... is here the right channel to ask on it? [18:35] you can try theverbg [18:37] Cool... I got a report back that we have a vulnerability circa Kernel 2.6... i.e. (CVE-2009-0065)... but our kernel when I run uname -r is 4.15.0-101-generic. (Ubuntu Server 16.04) [18:37] What would make my kernel on version 4.15 still be susceptible to kernel 2.6 CVEs? [18:38] Or would you suspect the scan is errant? [18:38] what are the cve's ? [18:39] commit march? https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/2009/CVE-2009-0065.html [18:39] and how do you know it's suseptible ? [18:39] 2.6 makes me think about vagrant boxes.. [18:40] @ikonia --- we have a third party who runs the scan [18:40] in order to pass on compliance we need to check their boxes. [18:40] they probably use a crap tool [18:40] that would be a tricky vunerability to actually test for [18:40] @oerheks --- do those patches get merged back into the main kernel branches as discovered? [18:41] like, I shouldn't be experiencing a 2.6 kernel bug on 4.15, right? [18:41] I tend to think the scan is wrong. [18:41] the 2.6 bug would not be present in the 4.X tree, it's a totally different code base for the majortiy [18:41] theverbg: I'd be interesting to know how they are testing it, as it's tough to do, and if it's just a signature based test, fire them, that's poor [18:41] k, good to know. I'm going to report back to these cats and tell them to check their results. Thanks guys! [19:06] How to find the differences between debian non free and ubuntu? [19:12] qaz101: That is such an open ended question that it can't be answered. Do you have a particular problem you're trying to solve? [19:15] Jordan_U i want to learn how Canonical uses debian as base and make ubuntu. what changes they do to include drivers, which packages are installed by default in ubuntu ? [19:15] How ubuntu have better hardware support than debian non free ? [19:17] a start .. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Ubuntu/ForDebianDevelopers [19:22] oerheks drivers are also installed as packages ? [19:23] for Wayland nvidia is a troublemaker [19:23] but this is linux-wide, not just ubuntu [19:24] oerheks diff apt list --installed, will help ? [19:25] if i run it on same hardware ? === leaftype2 is now known as leaftype [20:05] Did something change in 20.04 regarding disabling kernel drivers for NVIDIA? neither blacklisting of module or driver_override seem to have any effect (or I've overlooked something) - can't get the card bound to vfio-pci [20:13] hi, I have installed libusb both 32 and 64 bit, but when I am trying to link against it, I am getting an error, why is that? [20:13] /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lusb-1.0 [20:14] I have both /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libusb-1.0.so.0 and /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libusb-1.0.so.0 [20:16] usb is a device you write to. Why do you need to link with it? [20:16] ? [20:16] libusb is a programming library for usb comms... [20:17] it is a bit old Ubuntu should you need that information, although I think it is irrelevant for the problem at hand: cat /etc/issue [20:17] Ubuntu 16.04.6 LTS \n \l [20:19] lpapp_: Are you trying to link against something you wrote and build yourself? What commands were used to build the object files, and what commands were used to try to link them? ##programming or a more specific channel may be better for this. [20:23] lpapp_, seriously. I have used comm over usb for like 20 years including writing to embedded devices and never found the need. Are you sure you are doing things right? [20:25] I am 1000% sure [20:25] lpapp_: maybe pastebin the build output? maybe there's something else that's preventing it.. [20:25] Jordan_U: but this is a ubuntu issue. It works fine on my Archlinux [20:25] as the output says: gcc example.c -lusb-1.0 [20:26] this is a standard example from the libusb project, really. [20:26] lpapp_, well you have at least convinced me that your math sucks ;) lol [20:28] fair enough, if yuou don't want ot share, then you get a wild guess -- apt install libusb-1.0-0-dev and then try again [20:33] or show some script on paste.ubuntu.com .. [20:33] younder: you are a very constructive person. [20:40] sarnold: good idea - I had it installed, but I tried installing the :i386 version and that worked. [20:41] lpapp_: heh, does that mean you wound up building a 32 bit executable? I never did much mixed-arch stuff [20:42] for years I have been using nfs shares and fstab mounts to get access to my file server from my htpc, it works but is a perpetual headache [20:42] are there any other, better options? aside from SMB [20:43] why is samba out? [20:44] what's wrong with nfs? I'll admit it's been a while since I've used it in any serious capacity, but it always worked pretty okay for me [20:44] well, I actually also have samba, but doing samba linux->linux feels wierd to me, and except for my windows machines I'd kinda like to turn that service off, becauase it's not set up very secure (although that's probably my fault) [20:45] nfs works 99% of the time but it seems very slow at enumerating files, which translates to UI lag on my htpc. it's slow basically [20:45] not saying it's awful and want to throw it in the dumpster, just wondering if there's other options since I've always just been focused on nfs [20:45] i'm using ubuntu18, how can i tell my system to not use the dns it receives from dhcp? [20:46] GunArm: oh, hmm. that'd definitely make navigating a directory structure of media pretty obnoxious.. I'm surprised though, I'd have hoped that to be decently optimized by now. :/ [20:46] dorei sudo -e /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base [20:47] MonkeyDust: no such file or directory :( [20:47] dorei you can create it [20:48] i think it'd be better if got rid of the systemd cancer [20:48] thanks anyway [20:49] Hello guys, does somebody know how to debug hibernation? I've tried the commonly explained solutions like creating swap partition at least size of RAM, modifying /etc/default/grub, /etc/fstab but no success sofar. It looks like the machine hibernates but does not restore... [20:50] Ubuntu 18.04 is the distro [20:50] romrayster try this https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/4SgwMBvQXP/ [20:53] @MonkeyDust: thanks, will try and let you know in a second [20:56] romrayster there's also RTCwake (real time clock), which lets you wake up the machine from suspend or hibernation, at the time you specify [20:57] GunArm: There's sshfs . [21:00] @MonkeyDust: same issue, it looks like it hibernates but the restore does not work. Fyi, the configs I have: [21:01] Swap: /dev/sdb8: UUID="10881865-bf16-4dde-870f-bb6a04e5ae79" TYPE="swap" PARTUUID="1dec4a36-e7f5-4245-a7bb-aac1b54b7461" [21:02] where is their a beginners ubuntu channel, apparently this isnt it [21:03] @MonkeyDust: and /etc/fstab: UUID=10881865-bf16-4dde-870f-bb6a04e5ae79 none swap sw 0 0 [21:03] GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="resume=10881865-bf16-4dde-870f-bb6a04e5ae79" [21:03] xbfrog, there used to be #ubuntu-beginners [21:04] ok, thanks, cause this isnt it [21:04] romrayster: What is the output of "cat /proc/cmdline"? Can you pastebin the output of "journalctl --boot N" where N specifies a boot that you made after hibernating? For example, if you just hibernated and tried to restore and it failed but still brought you to a working system, that would be "journalctl --boot 0" for the current boot. If hibernation failed in a way that caused you to need to reboot, it [21:04] would be "journalctl --boot 1". [21:04]
