[00:21] TJ-: yep [00:21] from yesterday, though [00:21] i didnt reboot for an entire day though so that makes sense [00:22] im not sure what changed [00:24] N64N64: I didn't see anything obvious but I also didn't 'diff' it [00:25] N64N64: what you could do is "diff -u /etc/skel/.bashrc $HOME/.bashrc" [00:34] the only difference is `source ~/.profile` [00:34] which [00:34] now that i think about it [00:34] i may have added myself [00:35] OHHHHH [00:35] N64N64: that'd do it, since .profile sources .bashrc so you've got a loop [00:35] it was an infinite loop [00:35] yeah [00:35] doh! [00:35] wow [00:35] wtf [00:35] why does it not do that [00:35] when i ctrl+alt+f2 [00:36] oh probably because i not using bash [00:36] nvm yeah i am [00:36] echo $0 -> bash [00:37] weiiiiiiiird [00:37] talk about shooting oneself in the foot :D [00:45] thank you sir for going down this rabbit hole with me [00:48] !cookie | TJ- [00:48] TJ-: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie! [00:49] there is a max of 12 cookies iirc [00:49] aww :( that's not many cookies [00:49] tj- certainly deserves one of them though [00:49] I don't snack between meals but I have an apprentice that'll eat the crumbs before they hit the floor!

Like I want to see the cursor move. Can a screen session be shared like this? [02:00] I’m trying tigervnc and it works in that I can control *a* screen session but it’s not the active one. Basically I want to make sure there is only ever one screen session. === coetzeer1 is now known as coetzeer [02:09] hi,all when i try to delete a file inside nautilus it only has delete permanently.how can i bring back the normal delete that goes straigh to recycle bin? [02:14] how odd, normally nautilus stores it in trash [02:14] commandline makes it disappear. [02:15] i use caja and if i delete a file goes to the recycle bin unless i use shift + delete the doent pass by recycle bin [02:15] or shift-Delete to delete permanently in Nautilus ... [02:20] must be a mint issue, or other derrivate :-P [02:26] using xenial 16.04 [02:32] Recently I asked for an apt-packaged version of firmware blob rtlwifi/rtl8188eufw.bin for focal. Now by accident I found that we do indeed have a package for that, called "linux-firmware". [02:36] !info linux-firmware [02:36] linux-firmware (source: linux-firmware): Firmware for Linux kernel drivers. In component main, is optional. Version 1.187.1 (focal), package size 96658 kB, installed size 523484 kB [02:36] we do! [02:37] I don't understand how seeded-in-ubuntu works but it says it's part of ubuntu: daily-live -- I think I'd have expected linux-firmware to be installed on all machines where it would be helpful [02:38] I seem to have hosed up a thumb drive ... is there a way to just totally wipe out a thumb drive and start from scratch? [02:39] yes, if you run sudo dd=/dev/zero of=/dev/SOMETHINGHERE you can completely wipe that thumb drive. be careful though, you'll blow away whatever it is you aim that command at, and it'll overwrite your hard drive with your life's work on it if you ask it to [02:39] so be *sure* you pick the right device node to obliterate :) [02:39] ls -l /dev/disk/by-id/ may be handy [02:40] it might be worth double-checking with dmesg | grep sd to try to check your work :) [02:42] rjwiii, keep in mind however that flash memory has wear leveling, so you usually cannot ensure that old data is physically removed. it may have only been moved out of sight. [02:43] rjwiii, for SSDs you can at least request the data be physically erased, but thumbdrives don't usually provide that "secure erase" feature. [02:43] sarnold: Thanks ... did that, but it still mounts ... [02:43] sarnold: shows full space in disks, though ... [02:44] sarnold: fdisk is still showing less than the full disk space ... [02:44] rjwiii, make sure you write to the entire drive, not just a partition. I recommend using /dev/disk/by-id/ because the names there are harder to mistype than sdXX. in by-id/, the name of the disk does not have a -partX suffix. [02:44] sarnold: Did I just kill this thumbdrive? [02:45] rjwiii: you may need to do something to refresh the kernel's partition tables on the device -- it shouldn't have any partitions on it now, let alone filesystems.. [02:45] rjwiii: try pulling it and plugging it back in again [02:45] rjwiii, usually however, it should be easier to just ask gparted to create a new partition table. :) [02:47] sarnold: did that several times ... even plugged it into a different computer ... [02:48] Sven_vB: Have in gparted now ... how do I create a new partition table? [02:49] rjwiii, in the "Device" menu [02:49] rjwiii: mmmm. this worries me. how fast did that dd command run? what'd you overwrite? :) [02:49] Sven_vB: got it ... thanks [02:49] sarnold: Thank you to you, too ... [02:53] hi sometimes my computer crashes. and sometimes keeps crashing frequently. i found in logs "hardware error bank 0" or something like that. does this means is a memory issue? i did a memory test and didnt found problems [02:54] might be a termal issue [02:56] thermal could be. I once had a faulty cable to the reset button that would randomly short itself every few days. [02:57] just as a reminder that electrical connectivity can cause issues as well. :) [03:01] is it any possible hardware error bank 0 be refered to an ssd disk instead memory? [03:03] my temperatrure monitor says 98 degrees on ssd hard drive but muts be ubuntu fault. probably not working correctly because i feel no heat with my hand [03:11] fahrenheit or celsius? === Napsterbater_ is now known as Napsterbater === ktosiek6 is now known as ktosiek === abirkill- is now known as abirkill [04:12] I'm trying to debug a sometimes-slow shutdown, and am following the directions at: [04:12] https://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/Debugging/#index2h1 [04:12] However, I get a screenfull of this: https://pasteboard.co/JhxDa9G.jpg [04:12] I can't tell who's doing that or why they're unhappy. [04:42] gbellinoz: that's due to some kind of parsing error, I think [04:43] it's saying "No such file" with that long thing, so I suspect the line endings are wrong (CR instead of LF) [04:43] so the whole script is read as the program to run [04:44] deltab: ubuntu. I haven't had CR/LF problems in a long while! [04:45] okay, and given the systemd context I think it's something else [04:46] Could be that, but I'm not really sure what's being run. Is it something I've started with those kernel options, or the script that howto had me put in /usr [04:46] do you actually have a /bin/bash ? [04:47] yep! [04:47] but the script is calling for /bin/sh [04:50] what was the script you added? does it look like the one shown? [04:51] env >> /tmp/env etc. [04:51] The one at the freedesktop.org link. No echo in it whatsoever. [04:51] Looking at the output again, I can see semicolons between the statements, and a bash -c to run the whole thing, so I don't think it's a line ending issue. [04:55] It did actually end up in the journal, looks like something broken with the systemd debug stuff I'm passing in on the kernel options. [04:55] https://termbin.com/h2w0 [04:56] OH, it's some udev debug stuff I have in there. Have no idea why that would suddenly be producing a lot of output! [04:56] I've had it in there for years... must have always sounded off during boot/shutdown, but now with the systemd debug stuff in there it's visible. === PowerTower_121 is now known as PowerTower_120 [05:05] 20.04 I dont get a choice of Play Disk. What must I do? [05:07] tripelb: to play an audio CD, video DVD, or something else? [05:11] It's has been a horrible jerky UI experience with Ubuntu 20.04/Gnome for me on HP Spectre X360. Do I have a better option with some other flavor? [05:20] This one is a video dvd. [05:21] Deltab video dvd. Qi Gong [05:22] johnbendi there is a lighter ui on xbuntu, and it is official ubuntu [05:23] johnbendi: check the graphics drivers [05:23] I tried the mate and one other de(=ui) and they did not work on my HP probook laptop (late 2016) [05:24] johnbendi you can find out your hardware for which drivers with sudo lshw [05:25] 18.04 failed at my wifi drivers but 20.04 is good [05:25] tripelb: do you have libdvd-pkg installed? [05:26] Deltab how should I check that I have libdvd-pkg? [05:28] I haven't it's foss page and I'm working on it now [05:29] tripelb; most movies and such on dvds are encrypted [05:30] hi all.is there a way to re-enable the links on desktop's unity bar and nautilus left panel without logging out or restarting? [05:30] so you thats why you need libdvd [05:31] kk4ewt yes I know that is why I need (something) [05:31] deltab, it's the official proprietary nvidia driver from Ubuntu [05:32] Thank heavens that linus ey al forced nvidia to kneel and reveal the secrets. [05:36] deltab ok I did all that and I still dont get a choice to play. [05:37] tripelb: my guess was that it's not showing the option because of some missing software [05:37] Sounds true. [05:37] maybe that's still the case (some other software needed) or maybe there's a setting you need to change [05:38] Napsterbatero shrooms, Sherlock. [05:38] ...No s... Sherlock [05:39] sorry [05:39] yelowfish: does restarting GNOME Shell help with that? Alt+F2, r, Enter [05:40] Napsterbatero problem. Here I am not knowing anything. I thought of installing VLC and went to the video lan page. It says use snap. I may have removed snap because something else said install flat pack and get rid of snap. [05:40] My head spins. [05:41] I think Firefox just reinstalled the snap store for me [05:42] @deltab, il take note on that..any other tips? [05:43] yelowfish: nothing specific [05:44] When I try to play a disc with BLC all I see is audio T s and video TS I don't see any way to play it [05:44] You know ubuntu used to work... Come to think of it not on this HP computer. [05:45] tripelb; VLC?

I tried creating a file with fallocate, placing it on the nfs share, and then having a for loop that copies the file to /dev/null 100 times, but I think the file is cached after the first copy and it doesn't load the network at all. [08:54] the goal being to stress test the network interface to try and reproduce a kernel panic that occurs sometimes [08:55] on 16.04 [08:55] cxl: I think you'll need the O_DIRECT flag but not 100% sure it won't cache [08:58] ace_me: could try ##networking or #netfilter if you like [09:07] what do you mean lotuspsychje ?

[13:01] yes but what hardware ssd , memory or motherboard and cpu [13:01] any ideas [13:01] a web search for the mainboard suggests it's a faulty product [13:02] what words did u serch/ [13:04] "BERT: Error records from previous boot:" + J4205 [13:05] ok thank [13:06] BlairWitch: it could be many things, doesn'T have to be the mainboard. so could also be cpu, ram etc [13:08] it lists 3 drivers now with ubuntu list [13:08] should i just install the latest version? [13:09] BlairWitch: look into thermals, too, the storage media you have there reports its running hot [13:10] Devtron: the recommended one, i guess [13:12] tomreyn, i see ssd 98 degrees but i dont fell heat from it. [13:13] BlairWitch: 98? i saw 70-something, but that's more than it should have already [13:14] my app indicator says 98 degrees but i think its error [13:15] BlairWitch: are the fans spinning properly, though? [13:16] did you buy this computer fully assembled, or add parts to it? [13:17] yes it was mothrboard =cpu integrated and i added a litle fan to dissipator [13:18] so a cpu fan, directly attached to the cpu, right? [13:18] cpu fan on top cpu dissipator [13:19] cpu temperatures are fine appatrently: Core 0: +41.0°C [13:19] plus i selected powersave [13:21] smart disk says 98 degrees and all ok [13:21] BlairWitch: well 98°C wouldn't be ok [13:22] sensor bug mybe [13:22] maybe, but be sure that's the case. [13:22] if its 98 degreen i coudnt put my finger [13:22] and i dont feel any heat [13:23] ssd's are ok between 30 and 50 °C [13:23] 70°C is the upper edge where they can still work, but they'll wear off much, much faster [13:24] but it can be incorrectly reported, yes [13:24] smrt says 31 degrees temperature normalized 69 worst 60 [13:25] maybe it's 98 degrees fahrenheit :p [13:25] hum then a few lines after another temperture witch says 98 degrees [13:26] 98 degrres or 208 f [13:26] i guss i need to buy a new computer [13:27] i cant work with this [13:29] about 300 euros waisted on a small low profile crap [13:30] BlairWitch: is the ram also soldered on, or can you cross test it? [13:30] rm its not soldered [13:30] ram [13:30] i di that and aparently solved but it was only temporary [13:30] is it a single dimm though? [13:31] 2 dim [13:31] oh you tested already, ok [13:31] maybe i should removeone to see it [13:31] so removing one of them did not really help? [13:32] i just switch the rams [13:32] im gona try using only 1 ram [13:32] remove one, do a 2 pass memtest86+ (download from vendor website since you want the uefi variant) [13:32] if it still fails, replace the one by the other, repeat [13:33] if it still fails, replace mainboard [13:33] i did a full memtest and no errors with both [13:33] BlairWitch: maybe as another path also check if theres a higher bios update available, just as a test [13:33] ok [13:33] there's no higher bios version available [13:34] BlairWitch: you did a full test but in the wrong configuration [13:34] tomreyn: its weird, as the date says 21/5/2018 in his dmesg [13:34] im gona put computer with only 1 ram to see then i try the other [13:35] that's when the firmware image was produced, there's always some time between then and release date. [13:35] in this case it was months then [13:35] tomreyn: ah kk [13:35] i noticed some bugs on my motherboard weird characters [13:35] BlairWitch: good plan, good luck. there's also ##hardware here on freenode, they might have better suggestions.

I've not been able to get the EDID working for the Acer 4k DP monitor, however what I think was causing all the issues was the first part of the Modline, was set to 533.00 Mhz, apparently the correct value was 533.25, which has stopped all the craziness with the CPU, everything is working as expected with the correct custom modeline [14:58] It's a weird situation because the GPU is on-chip in the CPU, so having an incorrect settings affects CPU performance, but that's what it looks like did it. The entire machine is flying now, noticeably faster than Windows 10 now, rather than dramatically slower. Hopefully the EDID issue can be fixed which would make all this much easier [15:02] JediMaster: was that on intel graphics? [15:02] Yes [15:02] JediMaster: did you test other kernel versions on your issue? [15:03] Was getting huge CPU load issues with the entire machine grinding to a halt just because the modeline (that wasn't found by EDID for a 4k DP monitor) was 0.25Hz out [15:03] lotuspsychje, Yes, in that I've had the same problem with Ubuntu 16.04, 18.04 and 20.04 [15:03] aha [15:03] That the EDID was never picked up [15:03] JediMaster: you didnt file a bug for that? [15:04] I managed to get around it by finding a modeline that worked for the monitor, but it turned out to be just a little bit off and caused lots of problems with the CPU [15:04] JediMaster: i would reccomend, if something doesnt work out of the box on ubuntu, to let the devs know by filing a !bug [15:05] lotuspsychje, not sure what I would file the bug against, the intel driver in the kernel maybe? Or is it an issue with the EDID on the monitor itself? [15:06] JediMaster: did you edit things in xorg or xrandr? [15:06] yes, added a manual modeline in .xprofile [15:07] is xorg responsible for getting the EDID data from the monitor then? [15:07] JediMaster: maybe file against the kernel then ubuntu-bug linux, if its the wrong package, the devs will change it after anyways [15:08] Ok, will do, thanks [15:08] JediMaster: might be interesting for the community, and yourself too the devs know about it [15:10] JediMaster: makes sense with an integrated GPU, since the modeline is setting frequencies and overworking the GPU causes heat that will slow down the CPU so the package stays within the TDP [15:10] I've had similar issues on another machine with an Nvidia RTX 2080 with the same make/model monitor, so I suspect the issue is with the monitor not providing the EDID correctly [15:10] JediMaster: there are some specific DDC enquiry tools to manually request the EDID, there is also read-edid/parse-edid I seem to recall [15:15] relevant bug #1821533 TJ- JediMaster ?

[16:02] ah ok, thanks leftyfb [16:03] ph88: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-and-configure-vnc-on-ubuntu-20-04 === lewie67[p] is now known as lewie67 [16:04] leftyfb, you recommend tightvncserver ? [16:04] ph88: I recommend whatever works for you [16:04] i'm asking what works best [16:05] ph88: try the tutorial I gave you and see if it works for you. If you have problems with it, we can try to help you [16:06] ph88: if you want my opinion on remote access, I recommend ssh, not VNC. Especially over the internet [16:06] i like a desktop too [16:06] you asked for my recommendation [16:08] i ask "which vnc", you reply "not vnc" .. not helpful [16:09] ph88: the scope of this channel is ubuntu support questions, not really software reccomends [16:09] ph88: this is a support channel. If you are having issues, we can try to help. If you want opinions, try #ubuntu-offtopic [16:14] o/ quick and easy question: what's the package that replace libvirt-bin in Focal: libvirt-daemon? [16:17] if you look at https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=libvirt you'll notice the descriptions for libvirt-bin and libvirt-client bear a lot of similarity [16:17] * libvirt-clientS [16:18] is there some small service i could run on ubuntu to see if a connection to the OS works? ping works already but i like to try something else. The connection to the tigerVNC server is not succesful [16:23] ph88: ssh server [16:26] nc -l 1234 on the ubuntu system, then connect to port 1234 on it from another system, using nc there, too, or a web browser [16:27] hey guys, I'm having an issue where pulseaudio will just cut out randomly with no warning or feedback. Is there a way to get an active feed of the logs so I can see what the log output is when the failure occurs? === coconut_ is now known as coconut [16:28] tomreyn: Sometimes I forget how handy netcat can be [16:28] tomreyn: ack, thx [16:31] yes, a great simple tool. :) [16:39] jrgilman: I tend to do "tail -F /var/log/*" if I'm looking for something and don't know what log it's in === msalvatore_ is now known as msalvatore [16:44] journalctl -f [16:45] anyone know if there's a way to gather windows to a single monitor in ubuntu? [17:07] jrgilman: check out lnav, it's a really useful log tool [17:14] Hi, I'm trying to build Mesa git and I'm getting this: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/JQhyVcGyKc/ [17:15] The OS is Xubuntu 20.04 amd64 [17:15] FurretUber: what's wrong with the mesa available in ubuntu? [17:17] and did you do a web search on the error message, yet? [17:17] While 20.04 has a good Mesa version, I used Mesa git on 18.04 to have the latest features. Now, it's to follow git [17:18] It seems to be this one: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=96130 which says GCC is fixed [17:18] gcc.gnu.org bug 96130 in ipa "[10/11 Regression] ICE in analyze_function_body at gcc/ipa-fnsummary.c:2769 since r10-3199-g351e7c3b5fbd45bd" [Normal,Resolved: fixed] [17:25] so, I just got a new monitor and I'm having trouble with 2 things: 1.) I used xrandr to change the rate to 144hz and the picture is terrible and 2.) when I plug my headphones into the monitor, there's no sound [17:25] not all cables are capable of 144 hz .. [17:26] I'm using the cables that came with the monitor [17:31] It seems there is nothing on Launchpad about the GCC bug? [17:37] lewie67[p]: lnav is cool, but jesus my systems is throwing off tons of errors [17:38] watching now and playing music while i work to see when it happens [17:38] FurretUber, idk, maybe because gcc10 does not exist yet on ubuntu [17:39] I wrote a bug report about this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gcc-10/+bug/1887557 [17:39] Launchpad bug 1887557 in gcc-10 (Ubuntu) "GCC 10 is crashing with an internal compiler error when compiling Mesa" [Undecided,New] [17:40] It does, at least I was able to install it normally: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/BMFssvTcGz/ [17:42] FurretUber, sy, i mean 'not default version' [17:44] jrgrillman: fair enough, you can use lnav to filter...i just like the tail with the syntax highlighting and navigation stuffs [17:44] ok [17:44] I solved the refresh rate problem [17:44] apparently the nouveau driver can't handle 144hz [17:45] now, I just have to figure out why there's no sound in my headphones when I plug them into the monitor [17:46] any ideas [17:46] ?? [17:47] jrgilman: wow lnav seems interesting, i will have a look at it, thanks [17:47] <_jak> Hi all! I have a drive in my computer that I can see in the BIOS, but doesn't appear in the output of lsblk or fdisk. Any ideas why that might be the case? [17:50] _jak: not even lsblk -a ? [17:51] Hey guys [17:52] <_jak> k4rt0ff3lch33t4h: yup [17:52] <_jak> I have one NVMe drive that the OS is on, and one SATA drive that I can't see [18:03] I''m trying to install wkhtmltopdf from binary but the following happens. https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/Js9HDrCdS4/. Nothing gets installed [18:04] destinydriven: is there a reason the version available in ubuntu won't work for you [18:05] leftyfb, I'm installing on raspberry pi so I need the arm64 version [18:06] leftyfb, I think it's supposed to install that in /usr/local//bin but this directory is empty [18:06] destinydriven: ok. You still haven't answered the question [18:07] destinydriven: wkhtmltopdf is available on Ubuntu 20.04 on a Raspberry pi [18:07] Leftyfb, I need the version with patched QT [18:07] The one provided by ubuntu doesn't have that and you need to use something like xvbf [18:09] destinydriven: looks to me like it's already installed. You can use dpkg -S # to see what files were installed. You'll have to seek support from where you got the package for any further questions about it [18:09] Leftyfb, ok thanks. Will try this [18:12] Weird. It shows that wkhtmltox: /usr/local/bin/wkhtmltopdf but then running ls on that directory shows it to be empty [18:12] hi [18:12] i fresh installed ubuntu 20.04 dual booting with windows 10 but it shows 2 windows 10 in grub list sda1 and sda2 [18:13] how can i remove sda2? [18:13] dangerously formulated question [18:14] well before when i was using 18.04 it never showed 2 windows in grub list [18:16] leftyfb, Thanks a million. Thanks to your hint I tried to install using dpkg -i ./wkhtmltox_0.12.6-1.focal_arm64.deb and it worked as expected. Not sure why sudo apt install . . . didn't do it for me [18:22] b1ack0p: type 'cat /boot/grub/grub.cfg | nc termbin.com 9999' and paste the link here [18:22] ok [18:23] https://termbin.com/jifr [18:24] EriC^^: [18:25] b1ack0p: type 'sudo parted /dev/sda print | nc termbin.com 9999' [18:26] EriC^^: https://termbin.com/qxuq [18:27] b1ack0p: i think grub's just being dumb [18:27] why does it show 2 9011mb partition? [18:27] it suppose to be just swap area [18:27] one shows extended other shows swap [18:28] in the last link i pasted [18:28] the 1st is the extended one (like a container for partitions if you want) and the 2nd is the single partition in it [18:28] are they same? [18:28] b1ack0p: try 'sudo update-grub | nc termbin.com 9999' [18:28]
