My system is unstable, with the GUI freezing up or slowing to crawl, as though I'm out out memory, but if I can get to TTY and run htop my cpu and ram is very low. [01:05] I also noticed a number of changes to Gnome Shell after reboot, so I'm trying to figure out if this is instability related to an update, or to the power outage. Is anyone else having problems after an update? === waxfire7 is now known as waxfire [01:18] anyone know how to repair a corrupted deja dup backup?

And my server is listening to loopback instead of the ip address the server is running on :\ [01:41] Wondering if theres anything I should look at in terms of ubuntu logging? [01:42] how do i change what ip the server should listen to [01:43] doke should the unity game engine work on 20.04? idk as focal is still pretty new [01:43] ikarus987 you should probably look into the config file of the game server program [01:46] quadrathoch2: its been working perfectly fine- I just tried to download the newer client and it bombed out so I think they might be having server issues but regardless short of running the application in terminal (which isnt giving any logs) I dont know if theres a generic "im throwing errors" log similar to event viewer on windows [01:48] doke could you start it from terminal? it should normally give you errors [01:48] yeah I did that it logs nothing unfortunately [01:49] as I don't know unity itself, how did you install it? [01:50] it installs as a binary in a folder with all the dependencies needed so I dont THINK its a dependency thing being broken and if it is theres not really a super obvious way to tell because theres no terminal logging its outputting [01:50] doke appimage? [01:51] quadrathoch2: im unfamiliar with what you mean by that [01:51] doke just trying to figure out what kind of install that is [01:52] quadrathoch2: its simply a compiled binary that you can ./ in a folder with all the dependencies, kind of like how you can install KDENLIVE without it being a package from package manager [01:53] doke does that file have any file extension? [01:53] nope [01:53] type: application/x-executable [01:53] under properties [01:56] doke, I assume I just know not enough about unity to really help you then [01:57] ok, thanks for helping me out regardless have a good one === vlm_ is now known as vlm === William is now known as Conna [02:06] Hi guys [02:06] hi too [02:06] hi [02:06] I'm trying to install Win10 with VMware but there is an issue [02:07] https://imgur.com/T77z0sL [02:08] why dont you use virtualbox?

But I think I'm using KDE [09:53] I'm definitely not using gnome as the default widget set, or desktop environment or whatever [09:53] alexrelis: might you know the name of the tool? [09:53] bobdobbs: On Gnome, you can use Gnome Screenshot. On KDE, you can use Spectacle. Both should be installed by default. [09:54] With those programs, you can assign a specific keyboard shortcut to take a screenshot of a specific area to make things easier in the future. [09:56] thanks [09:56] bobdobbs: No problem, sir/ma'am. [09:57] Looking at spectacle now... it wants to take a snap of the entire display [09:57] if I remember correctly, Gnome Screenshot does the same thing [09:58] bobdobbs: Check out the documentation: https://userbase.kde.org/Spectacle [09:58] I'll settle for either of these as second best - I could take the image and then capture the area I want in GIMP. But I'm wondering if a tool exists that can capture a designated area [09:58] k. will check out the docs [10:00] aha! Rectangular Mode! [10:00] thanks alexrelis! [10:00] bobdobbs: You got it, bud.

[10:27] why is thaty [10:28] it looks like when host copy process is running dd skips/ignores/ my read requests and give me cached valuesi nstead [10:29] did you mean to post this in ##linux by chance? [10:29] yeah, my fault but it is valid also here [10:30] tomreyn, do you have any diea? [10:30] idea* [10:30] please choose one of the two, announce when you shift to the other. and, most importantly, provide context. [10:31] why are you doing this in the first place, what's the purpose / goal? [10:31] debugging purposes I just want to monitor DSP behaviour [10:31] what's the ubuntu support question you have there? [10:31] so I put some *marks* in the dsp memory which can be read by host [10:32] the question is why host stops to read them when busy arecord captures audio samples [10:32] what is "the host"? [10:32] Ubuntu [10:32] so is there a guest as well? [10:32] are we talking virtualization by chance? [10:32] no no [10:33] maybe "host" is not appropriate here [10:33] but you got my point right? [10:34] no. i don'T see an ubuntu support question, yet. [10:34] ha [10:35] i think you don't know how to explain it [10:36] me neither to be honest [10:39] hi folks, just taken off a Sky HD disk and connected it with a USB adapted. I can see the adapter on Disks but it says no medium. What can i try next [10:45] Why is Shell theme disabled in Gnome Tweak Tool? [10:45] How do i enable it? [10:45] gebbione: you may need to explain what a "sky hd disk" is and how data is stored on it [10:46] tomreyn, it is a SSD drive [10:46] i dont want to read the data, i just woult like to format it and use it [10:47] i see. does it use sata then, and you attached an usb to sata adapter to it? [10:48] gebbione: what does "lsblk" say? [10:49] tomreyn, yes the adapter shows on disks as SPIF30x USB2SATA Bridge (0124) [10:49] disconnect the drive, run journalctl -f in a terminal window. put the terminal window in front or just don't cover it by other windows. then connect the drive and tell us what is printed to the terminal window. ctrl-c to top the journalctl process.

[11:02] is there a signal command? [11:02] or is just kill? I do it so rarely [11:02] to send a signal to a process, use the "kill" command, passing the signal to send as an argument [11:03] ok [11:03] kill just sounds.. dangerous [11:03] gparted does not see the drive [11:04] it would ask the dd process to quit if you wouldn't pass the right signal [11:05] I did `sudo kill --signal USR1 5540` but the shell which is executing dd is silent [11:05] `oot 5540 1.9 0.0 14760 6280 pts/0 D+ 13:55 0:10 dd bs=4M if= ...` [11:05] neure: is there a signal called "USR1" listed on signal(7)?

[11:07] yes, thanks, you were very helpful [11:08] my old sata SSD is failing me [11:08] sometimes when i power on, it wont show up even in bios, and I need to cut power before it shows up again [11:09] I dual boot windows and ubuntu from that drive.. I need to reinstall both to a new drive :/ [11:09] so you're lucky, most just vanish forever. [11:11] I have had a second drive for a while, but as I added that later, I only used it for storage so far [11:12] now I got a third drive and I plan to move contents of second drive to the new third one and use then use the second drive for booting stuff [11:12] what do I use to partition new drives? [11:12] Disks ? [11:13] fdisk, parted, and maybe gui tools work, too [11:13] Funny - running déja-dup from terminal does not reveal the reason for permission denied error... [11:14] tomreyn, any ideas as to why even gparted does not see the disk even if the bridge is detected -> https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/JCG4Tj8s8J/ [11:14] neure: nowadays you'll probably want a gpt partition table, not mbr/(ms)dos [11:15] gebbione: no, but what tatertots said about encryption could explain it. and the hdparm output i suggested to paste may exlain it, too. [11:16] so these disks cannot be formatted? [11:16] which disks? [11:17] encrypted ones, this was the only element of difference i can see with any other disks that is mounting correctly [11:17] depends on the encryption used. do you know it is encrypted? what do you know about the disk? [11:20] all i know is that i have taken it out of an Amstrad Sky HD box and it is a SATA drive [11:20] see, that's not a lot. so maybe getting more details on the disk would be a good idea. [11:20] Seagate 5VV358M6 [11:21] which partition filesystem should I use to share data between windows and ubuntu? [11:21] gebbione: is there a reason you prefer not to run hdparm against it? [11:21] fat [11:22] gparted does not seem to allow me to format partition as exfat [11:22] i wonder why? [11:22] neure: fat (no journalling), ntfs (can be slow), exfat (proper support in linux is in early stages only) [11:23] tomreyn, no reason. I have run the previous hdparm command but not sure what to do to make this drive visible [11:23] I think used exfat before, but now that partition does not show up, weird [11:23] hmm [11:23] gebbione: was there any output? [11:23] is ntfs okay? [11:24] I do not care if it is a bit slower [11:24] tomreyn, the one i shared before -> https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/JCG4Tj8s8J/ [11:24] or let me run it again [11:24] neure: the other issue with ntfs is that there is only partial support in linux, you'll still need to run file system checks on windows. [11:25] tomreyn, https://termbin.com/n1x6 [11:25] gebbione: this is from a kernel log, not hdparm output [11:25] ah this second paste is [11:25] so you actually ran it now :) [11:26] yep i think i got confused with the links [11:26] but disks still shows no medium [11:26] drive info is garbled, that's not a good sign [11:26] is hdparm supposed to connect the drive [11:27] hdparm is a low level utility to talk to storages. [11:28] is it possible that I am using a poor SATA -> USB cable? [11:28] gebbione: it'l be better to attach it directly to the sata bus [11:28] i ll try [11:28] the cable could be bad, also the sata <-> usb <-> sata translation is usually lossy [11:29] neure linux doesnt support for ntfs is hit and miss [11:29] what about docking stations [11:29] i really would like to switch to different disks through USB [11:30] gebbione: you could try a security erase command, but personally i wouldn't want to do this over sata <-> usb <-> sata, and not without having identified the disk model and ensuring that it is actually capable of it. [11:31] "Seagate 5VV358M6" does not seem to exist [11:31] (probably a typo, look for 0 vs O etc [11:32] how should I move files from one drive to another? just mv ? [11:33] actually I should just copy [11:33] so cp [11:34] tomreyn, here is the disk label https://ibb.co/MSxnQk5 [11:35] I think I'll better copy the ntfs-sharing partition from old to new in windows instead of ubuntu, just to be safe [11:37] gebbione: was the disk removed from a working functional DVR? [11:37] gebbione: so this is a Seagate ST3500312CS HDD [11:38] tatertots, not sure if it was in working conditions [11:38] https://www.seagate.com/staticfiles/support/docs/manual/ce/Pipeline%20HD%20Series/100529372j.pdf [11:40] that's a boring old sata II disk. [11:41] still free 500GB of storage [11:41] not from what we've seen so far. [11:41] if it worked [11:42] gebbione: cable and satellite DVR hard drives are encrypted, it is not intended that recordings be copied or moved outside of the device [11:43] gebbione: verify the drive functions in it's place of origin (in the DVR from which it came) [11:44] Hello, I'm running Ubuntu 20.04 as a live system, and after a few minutes of IO transfers the performance degrades to kb/s, it's not great to start with (5-7MB/s), any idea how I can fix this? [11:44] gebbione: you most likely will not be re purposing the disk [11:46] psygate: what are you transferring from where to where? [11:47] tomreyn, internal harddrive, SATA to internal ssd, nvme [11:47] psygate: how much ram does this system have? [11:47] and the write cache (dirty bytes?) goes up to 6GB cached when writing [11:47] 32GB [11:48] so you'Re not writing to the overaly file system, right? [11:48] *overlay [11:48] What the overlay filesystem? [11:49] whatever the ubuntu live system is stored on [11:49] i... dont think so? can i check somehow? [11:49] tatertots, i should be able. Lots of people just take these drives out and reuse them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bLAyVqNau7Y [11:49] but the harddrives are not the usb stick where ubuntu is on. if thats what youre asking, those are independend drives. [11:50] psygate you can directly write to the block-device or just use copy,move etc to operate on the filesystem, when the device is mounted [11:50] cool, google can answer things like 128GB / 80MB/s [11:50] hi btw [11:50] neure: lets keep it ubuntu support related please [11:51] psygate: yes thats what i meant, sorry, my question was not qell phrased [11:51] neure, just don't loose your brains letting google do all the thinking ;) [11:51] *well [11:51] lotuspsychje, yeah sorry, I'm just preparing to reinstall operating systems and need to move stuff around [11:51] Drives are independend, and it doesnt help to install ubuntu to an internal drive either. [11:52] neure: sure, prepare in silence, or discuss in #ubuntu-discuss [11:52] it just feels as if ubuntu cant really speak "fast sata" and queues writes somewhere, to flush them slowly [11:52] psygate: ah so you tried installing ubuntu and booted off it and experienced the same issue? [11:52] psgate, what do you mean, that is actually not relevant, and drivers are always dependend, on hardware os etc. [11:52] yea [11:52] psygate: do you still have this installation? [11:53] no, i had to remove it to boot _anything_ that works with more then 300kbit/s [11:53] psygate: did it ever work better? have you ruled out a hardware issue, yet? [11:54] I am pretty sure its not the hardware. I had the same issue some years ago on any laptop i installed ubuntu on [11:54] and ssd to ssd works with ~200-300MB/s under windows [11:54] it is not a generic ubuntu or linux issue [11:54] I'm not sure. [11:54] <_DaBez_> hello ;) [11:55] psygate, I had a similiar issue , not with ubuntu but with arch, have you tried to change the protocol for the driver in the bios/UEFI settings? [11:55] to? the only other option is RAID [11:55] welcome _DaBez_ [11:55] hello [11:55] nono, not the that option, for the nvme-drives there are 2 other ones [11:56] <_DaBez_> do anyone know, if there's a version for 32 Bit PowerPC? I want to use my old iBook G3 with ubuntu [11:56] I cannot recall, but if you find it in your bios try changing it [11:56] the nvme drive isnt really the problem, the sata harddrive is [11:57] it looks like the sata controller is saturated by the commands, because if i try to communicate smart or anythign with the drive, it just doesnt respond until all IO is done, and sync terminates. [11:57] that has nothing to do with the driver, that is deep down in the uefi-configuration prior the driver [11:58] !mac | _DaBez_ start here [11:58] _DaBez_ start here: For help on installing and using Ubuntu on a Mac, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MactelSupportTeam/CommunityHelpPages [12:00] <_DaBez_> ubottu that's for intel Mac since 2006. my iBook was introduced in 2001... [12:00] _DaBez_: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [12:00] <_DaBez_> oh ;) [12:01] <_DaBez_> lotuspsychje then this message above is for you... [12:01] Hi! Anyone using PPPoE ? It is suspiciosly slow. I set up two test VMs on the same host and an IP connection between them runs at 2 Gbit/s, but PPPoE is 10 times slower. [12:02] measured each time with iperf3 [12:02] IaMnEwHeRe, the nvme drive is not the issue. [12:02] _DaBez_: a lot of older ubuntu versions are EOL by now, you could try a 18.04 32bit perhaps, but not sure that will work on an old ibook.. [12:03] _DaBez_: i head great experiences with 18.04 and macs, but all ive tested were not too ancient [12:03] <_DaBez_> oof. can you recommend some OS to me? I want to use RDP and SSH, client each [12:04] _DaBez_: we are in the ubuntu support channel here, we reccomend ubuntu [12:04] _DaBez_: try a 16.04 or an 18.04 32bit liveusb on it as a test? [12:04] I've got a question - I have a problem with the setup of a new co-lo machine (ubuntu focal). The network connectivity via netplan works - but ipv6 routing doesn't seem to work. I can send icmp6 echo requests to the machine - and tcpdump shows them arriving. But no echo responses go back... Nothing in firewall log either (also doesn't work if I turn off ufw for the test) [12:05] <_DaBez_> I'll try, thx ;) [12:05] The weird thing is that I have another machine, where ipv6 is working (on fossa, using netplan)... [12:05] only ipv4 config works fine [12:05] torinarg: ubuntu server? [12:06] yep [12:06] torinarg: try #ubuntu-server if you like for likeminded volunteers [12:06] ok - thank you. [12:08] What best to do when apt install freezes? [12:13] viktor_: pastebin whats happening to apt please [12:15] lotuspsychje: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/XGnFMbghGQ/ second time already [12:15] lotuspsychje: that i try to install it i mean [12:17]
