|---|---|---|
| jasonsmr | Im getting this error>> | 00:50 |
| jasonsmr | strange observation, the queue depth is (64) meanwhile fw queue depth (128) | 00:50 |
| jasonsmr | I googled it an only found an unconfirmed solution and its for redhat | 00:50 |
| Sven_vB | jasonsmr, where does that message show up and in what situations? | 01:00 |
| Sven_vB | also which ubuntu version? | 01:00 |

| Intelo | Sven_vB: jeremy31 is the hardware even detected here (bluetooth)? https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/jhrj4vJKKT/ | 01:18 |
| jasonsmr | Sven_vB, it shows up in dmesg last few lines >> http://ix.io/2scv , and in Ubuntu-server 20.04 LTS | 01:44 |
| Sven_vB | so the strange observation is from "sd 8:1:0:0". I wonder if that's a disk. | 01:45 |
| Sven_vB | Intelo, I couldn't find it there. | 01:45 |
| Intelo | Sven_vB: line 15-22? | 01:46 |
| Sven_vB | Intelo, those are probably just drivers being prepared, so they are ready to do their thing as soon as you plug in any antenna. | 01:47 |
| Intelo | Sven_vB: so there is no bluetooth? How can I be more sure? | 01:47 |
| Sven_vB | Intelo, it seems there's at least no hardware that identifies itself as a BT antenna to Ubuntu. to find whether and what kind of antenna should be there in hardware, check the computer's user's manual. | 01:49 |
| Intelo | Sven_vB: computer specs says BT is there, even a settings in bios | 01:49 |
| Sven_vB | Intelo, some hardware only identifies itself if it hears the correct greeting from an operating system, often they expect a certain version range of Windows to admit they're there. | 01:50 |
| Sven_vB | Intelo, you could try other Ubuntu and/or windows versions in hope it accepts them and shows up, then at least you'd know which driver to use. | 01:51 |
| gildarts | How would you go about giving a remote process/service access over ssh to a specific set of folders? I have it setup so that it can rsync files into a user folder, but unsure how to give it access to a folder in /var/lib | 02:17 |
| cluelessperson | Is there an X Event that's basically NULL or NOP? | 02:18 |
| cluelessperson | I want to disable these buttons | 02:18 |
| k_sze | Odd, why do my sound settings list two "Skype" applications when I don't even have skype installed? lol | 02:19 |
| sarnold | gildarts: there's nothing super-easy I can think of | 02:20 |
| k_sze | https://imgur.com/a/NoStea6 | 02:20 |
| sarnold | gildarts: If the goal is to keep a specific account confined to a subset of the filesystem, I'd probably give the user their own shell executable, write an apparmor profile for that executable to grant just the privileges for eg rsync, ls, read and write on the directories you want it to use... but you'd also need to do something to disable the built-in sftp handling in sshd | 02:21 |
| k_sze | So it appears the Microsoft Teams can identify itself as Skype to the Ubuntu sound system. | 02:21 |
| gildarts | Hrmm, I should probably bug the developer of the software in question then. Since he is doing something similar in production, though he might just be trusting his secret management system to not bork mess up his own software. | 02:22 |
| gildarts | s/mess// | 02:22 |

| Sven_vB | cluelessperson, xinput devices with buttons should have a property that maps each physical button to a mouse button. you can assign mouse button 0 for ignore. | 02:34 |
| Sven_vB | with "mouse" I meant virtual button. | 02:35 |
| Sven_vB | gildarts, maybe rssh + sshfs? | 02:37 |
| gildarts | Sven_vB: I did ask the developer, will see what he says. I know the scripts are using ssh and rsync, but I don't know what the server setup is. | 02:38 |
| Sven_vB | gildarts, maybe rssh (restricted ssh) works with rsync as well. | 02:39 |

| scythefwd2 | how do I disable a nic on boot? | 02:56 |
| scythefwd2 | I used to do it via ifconfig-eth0.config but that doesnt seem to be there any more.. | 02:57 |
| scythefwd2 | I have a dual nic machine.. and one nic isnt used.. and I'm annoyed with the error message about not being able to bring up the networking interface | 02:58 |
| k_sze | Is it generally safe to manually remove subdirectories of old kernel versions in /lib/modules? | 02:59 |
| sarnold | k_sze: it's better to purge the package that supplied those directories | 03:01 |
| k_sze | sarnold, What I did was "apt autoremove --purge", which tries to remove old kernel versions that are no longer needed. But it gives warnings that the directories are not empty and so doesn't remove them. | 03:02 |
| k_sze | the kernel versions are considered gone in the dpkg registry, it's just the old, non-empty directories that remain. | 03:03 |
| Thusal06 | Is there are any methods to run the Windows Boot loader than GRUB Boot loader at the start-up after you dual boot Ubuntu and Windows 10? PLEASE, CAN ANYONE HELP??? =( | 03:05 |
| scythefwd2 | you can run it directly using the boot selection menu most of the time | 03:06 |
| scythefwd2 | its still in the same efi directory | 03:06 |
| Thusal06 | Hi, I dual-booted Ubuntu 20.04 with Windows 10, but the GRUB Boot loader was the screen appears on the start-up, Are there are any methods that I can use Windows Boot loader instead of GRUB Boot loader? | 03:11 |
| scythefwd2 | one time boot menu @thusal06 | 03:12 |
| Thusal06 | scythefwd2 How to access it? | 03:12 |
| scythefwd2 | depends on your uefi or bios | 03:12 |
| Thusal06 | I have UEFI. scythefwd2 | 03:13 |
| scythefwd2 | my laptop it's f9 | 03:13 |
| scythefwd2 | my desktop I want to say is something like f11 | 03:13 |
| scythefwd2 | you're gonna have to read your computers manual for that one | 03:13 |
| Thusal06 | I googled, looks like mine is F9, scythefwd2 | 03:14 |
| Thusal06 | Could you tell me the process? scythefwd2 | 03:14 |
| scythefwd2 | hit f9 when it's booting.. should give you a menu of what the uefi detects.. should be able to select it from the menu | 03:15 |
| scythefwd2 | simple as that | 03:15 |
| Intelo | Sven_vB: ok | 03:15 |
| pinPoint | I'm curious. I stopped using ufw and just went for iptables. I disabled ufw from starting but it continues to come up and it is still active. I don't understand, this is a digitalocean vps. Could I simply apt purge ufw? | 03:16 |
| scythefwd2 | is masking a service still a thing? | 03:17 |
| Sven_vB | yes | 03:30 |
| scythefwd2 | I have 2 1tb spinning rust drives.. I'd rather use them as a single 2 tb raid .. I've tried mdadm, but it wont assemble the raid at boot.. is there another way ? | 03:39 |
| scythefwd2 | I dont believe my sata ports allow me to select WHICH devices will be used in the raid.. so I dont think using the built in on my mobo is gonna .. work | 03:40 |
| scythefwd2 | but, now that I mention it.. I have to go check lol | 03:40 |
| pinPoint | so I purged ufw but I'm still seeing ufw block inputs inside of syslog. How is this possible? | 04:01 |

| interval_ | hi | 05:21 |
| interval_ | I've been using Ubuntu 16.04 and there was a feature in the dock(launcher): when mouse hovered to the top and bottom, the launcher would move(slide) icons up and down respectively. It's not happening in the upgrade to Ubuntu 20.04 and i am facing a lot of trouble when multiple apps are opened, and trying to switch between them. | 05:22 |
| yelowfish | hi all,may i request assistance regarding nautilus? the icons on left cant be accessed.. Unable to find the requested file. Please check the spelling and try again.. i think they got broken after i followed this : https://www.techrepublic.com/article/how-to-properly-automount-a-drive-in-ubuntu-linux/ | 05:27 |
| interval_ | Ubuntu 16.04 launcher feature explanation: if you open more applications than can be shown in the Launcher, the Launcher will “fold” the application icons at the bottom of the Launcher. By Simply moving the mouse to the bottom of the Launcher,the Launcher icons “slide” and the folded application icons unfold for easy access. | 05:29 |
| interval_ | is the same feature available for Ubuntu 20.04? | 05:29 |
| guiverc | interval_, I assume you're asking about a Unity feature on 16.04. Are you also asking about Unity on 20.04? or the now default GNOME on 20.04? I recall seeing articles talking about that feature in 20.04 with Unity (I don't use it so didn't take much notice) | 05:30 |
| interval_ | quiverc, yes it is a unity feature i guess. however opening multiple app will pile up on the dashboard on 20.04 too. So how to deal with it? | 05:33 |
| Napk1n | is there a way to run a script and close the terminal without it terminating the script? | 05:42 |
| Napk1n | so like an alternative to control z | 05:43 |
| Napk1n | that wont stop my script | 05:43 |
| guiverc | I know I've read detail about the feature when running Unity on 20.04, can not find where I read it though interval_ | 05:43 |
| interval_ | quiverc, what is the alternate to this, how to i see piled up apps on my dashbaord in 20.04? | 05:44 |
| interval_ | *how do i | 05:45 |
| guiverc | indicator icons have changed (with new yaru theme), but you could put back original theme I guess. You haven't said if you're talking about GNOME or Unity, so I've assumed still Unity on 20.04 | 05:45 |
| gnoob | https://www.tecmint.com/run-linux-command-process-in-background-detach-process/ | 05:45 |
| interval_ | sorry, no, i am using default settings on 20.04, so GNOME | 05:47 |

| furkan | I have a strange issue on my laptop (Ubuntu 20.04), which popped up some time over the last few weeks (never experienced it before that): Let's say I open a text file in gedit, and type some stuff and just leave the laptop idle. After some random amount of time, it will backspace all by itself until the whole file is erased, and starts to beep continuously like gedit does when you hit backspace on an empty | 06:56 |
| furkan | file, until I mash some keys to make it stop. After that, my backspace key sometimes stops registering, until I hit shift+backspace which seems to "fix" it for a while. Does anybody have some tips on how I could troubleshoot this? | 06:56 |
| lotuspsychje | furkan: can you try to create a new user, and see if you have the same issue there? | 07:07 |
| === zoko_ is now known as zoko | ||
| furkan | lotuspsychje: thanks for the tip! will do | 07:11 |
| yelowfish | if i reinstall nautilus.will it break other apps? | 07:24 |
| furkan | lotuspsychje: thanks again, 10 minutes of idle time and nothing happened (usually it just takes a few minutes for it to happen)... I guess I'll have to go through my dotfiles and start nuking them until I find the culprit? | 07:28 |
| lotuspsychje | furkan: yeah i think we proved its your user related problem now | 07:28 |
| lotuspsychje | furkan: maybe narrow down with purge/reinstall gedit? | 07:29 |
| furkan | yeah that really helps, i don't think it's just gedit though so i'll just test another program too to make sure | 07:33 |
| lotuspsychje | good idea | 07:33 |
| furkan | yelowfish: assuming that nautilus is already installed and you're just running an apt install --reinstall nautilus, i don't see why it would break anything, but it probably wouldn't fix anything either unless you've deleted/modified some of the files contained in the package | 07:37 |
| yelowfish | yeah | 07:37 |
| yelowfish | cant figure out on how to reverse what i did | 07:38 |
| archerist | https://askubuntu.com/questions/275719/reinstall-package-and-its-installed-dependencies | 07:38 |
| archerist | maybe this would help? | 07:38 |
| yelowfish | the only modifications i remember that is related to nautilus are: change default loc of the left icons,auto mount a partition on boot | 07:39 |
| yelowfish | archerist maybe | 07:40 |
| yelowfish | i dont want to keep creating new prob whenever im trying to fix 1 part :( | 07:41 |
| yelowfish | i think il just reverse the auto mount of a drive and get contented with nautilus after | 07:42 |
| yelowfish | please help me reverse the steps on this site https://www.techrepublic.com/article/how-to-properly-automount-a-drive-in-ubuntu-linux/ | 07:44 |
| furkan | yelowfish: if you want to check what you modified you could try something like https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/72778 | 07:45 |
| furkan | but for the removing the automount, it's just the 1 line from fstab that you need to delete, no? | 07:46 |
| yelowfish | did that already. the drive went missing afterwards | 07:53 |
| yelowfish | furkan will this revert all back to default settings? https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/72778 | 07:56 |
| furkan | yelowfish: no, but removing the drive from fstab shouldn't make it disappear. you should still be able to see it from the GNOME Disks utility for example | 08:03 |

| BluesKaj | Howdy folks | 10:09 |
| benishor | hi all | 10:12 |
| oerheks | tarrie, what is "the true loss of read/write speeds" ?? | 10:14 |
| benishor | weird behaviour in 20.04, gnome: I use a 4K monitor so I set scaling to 200%. I open a terminal, maximize the window, lock screen, wait for the monitor to not detect hdmi anymore, wake the system, log in and bam, suddenly the terminal window is twice the size of maximized | 10:14 |
| benishor | I get the same with document viewer | 10:14 |
| tarrie | oerheks: ive read and assumed that enabling encryption results in some loss of drive performance | 10:14 |
| tarrie | is it a significant amount in 2020? | 10:14 |
| benishor | qt stuff does not seem to be affected | 10:14 |
| benishor | does anybody get the same behaviour? | 10:15 |
| oerheks | tarrie, encryption does decrease performance, but slightly. depends on your system, ofcourse | 10:15 |
| === Roedy86 is now known as Roedy | ||
| oerheks | there are no statistics AFAIK | 10:15 |
| oerheks | or rule of thumb | 10:15 |
| sonOfRa | tarrie: if you have a reasonably modern CPU (that is, supports AES-NI), the AES-NI throughput of your CPU cores is generally a lot higher than the IO throughput of NVMe drives. | 10:16 |
| sonOfRa | If you are in a highly used system that is almost always at 100% CPU usage across all cores, you may notice considerable IO slowdowns | 10:16 |
| sonOfRa | But only in a parallel environment: If a thread is waiting to do IO, it is... waiting to do IO and not consuming CPU resources. | 10:17 |
| tarrie | okay interesting, looks like i have aes-ni enabled on my cpu | 10:17 |
| tarrie | thanks i'm gonna give it a shot | 10:18 |

| ViperXL75 | Strangely enough the manuals on the internet are not really helping to create a bridged interface to use as a "virtual switch" for kvm. Anyone has experience with it? | 10:19 |
| quadrathoch2 | tarrie it really depends on the cpu, but nowadays with aes-ni enabled, the decrease is somewhere in the ballpark of 1-3% | 10:19 |
| tarrie | quadrathoch2: 1-3% sounds great | 10:20 |
| sonOfRa | Newer CPUs also have much more AES-NI throughput than older CPUs. | 10:20 |

| opt1mus | is there a reasonable justification for not setting maxsize in logrotate.conf ? In a distro that claims to be easy-to-use, this is vulnerable to - in the event of something saturating the logs - filling the partition and resulting in an unusable OS, whilst this is an easy thing to set, Ubuntu is aimed at people that I feel would expect sane defaults and little to no tinkering. This could be dynamically | 11:40 |
| opt1mus | set at installation, by pc of partition or other. A broken but usable system becomes essentially bricked with this open | 11:40 |
| opt1mus | default install of Ubuntu | 11:41 |
| jim90 | clean ubuntu install creates two partitions: sda1 and sda5. What is the purpose of sda1? /boot with grub config and kernel is on sda5. So why sda1? | 11:45 |
| jim90 | I tried to mount it but the resulting folder is empty | 11:46 |
| jim90 | df | 11:47 |
| opt1mus | jim90: how and where are you mounting it? Commands etc | 11:51 |
| jim90 | in ubuntu terminal: sudo mount /dev/sda1 /boot/efi | 11:52 |
| jim90 | parted -l shows it's 537MB fat32 with boot flag. I just don't get why it exists if the main partition already has /boot | 11:55 |
| opt1mus | I'm confused, I thought you said boot was sda5 | 11:59 |
| jim90 | sda5 is / which has /boot inside | 12:00 |
| opt1mus | what's the output of lsblk -f ? | 12:00 |
| opt1mus | or lslkb is fine too I think | 12:00 |
| opt1mus | lsblk sorry | 12:01 |
| jim90 | https://pastebin.com/rHTf1VjP | 12:02 |
| opt1mus | that's odd, I would expect with having just one partition it'd just be under sda1 | 12:06 |
| opt1mus | jim90: what about fstab? | 12:13 |
| jim90 | it's MBR partition scheme. so sda2 is extended partition. sda5 is a logical partition with ubuntu, and /boot. Maybe ubuntu copies /boot content directly onto sda1 for some reason.. | 12:17 |
| opt1mus | I'm probably mising something, but I've have single partition installs in the past, just the whole thing on sda1. To me it looks like you've got 537MB going unused | 12:18 |
| opt1mus | there's goes my engrish again | 12:19 |
| jim90 | https://pastebin.com/dmU0GxJP found comment in fstab, seems it's related to initial install? | 12:20 |
| nirakara | can anyone assist with some lightweight bash programming? | 12:21 |
| opt1mus | possibly... | 12:21 |
| lotuspsychje | nirakara: we usually focus on ubuntu issues here | 12:21 |
| lotuspsychje | nirakara: perhaps ##pgrogramming is more what you need, or #bash ? | 12:22 |

| opt1mus | jim90: do the UUIDs then match up with how it is now? | 12:27 |
| jim90 | they do, it's sda1 and sda5 | 12:29 |
| opt1mus | jim90: mine's the same, only /boot/efi is mounted, what looks odd to me is your paste shows it as not mounted at all, where it ought to be as per your fstab | 12:34 |

| tyuiop | hi | 13:01 |
| tyuiop | i m trying to setting sftp server using this guide : https://tech.feub.net/2018/03/mettre-en-place-un-acces-sftp-en-jail-chroot-pour-un-groupe-specifique/ | 13:02 |
| lotuspsychje | tyuiop: where are you stuck? | 13:05 |
| tyuiop | is it possible to add multiple line like this : Match Group sftp_users | 13:05 |
| tyuiop | Match Group sftp_user2 | 13:05 |
| tyuiop | etc ... | 13:05 |
| ikonia | chroots are normally to a specific group | 13:05 |
| ikonia | the whole point is to jail it to a user/group/directory | 13:05 |
| ikonia | multiple users is possible but it adds complexity | 13:05 |
| ikonia | as the server normally assumes the permissions of the user/group that it is jailing | 13:06 |
| tyuiop | ok here is my conf right now : | 13:07 |
| ikonia | don't need your config | 13:07 |
| tyuiop | https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/2jKrVpBgGW/ | 13:08 |
| ikonia | what do you want us to do with that ? | 13:09 |
| tyuiop | is it possible to add multiple time Match group ? | 13:10 |
| ikonia | I've just explained the complication | 13:10 |
| tyuiop | complication in which part ? | 13:10 |
| ikonia | when you jail a process it's normally jailed to the user/group that is owning it (that's the key part of a jail) doing it to multiple groups is hard in a jail as the point of a jail is to restrict it | 13:11 |
| ikonia | not impossible - but hard | 13:11 |
| tyuiop | so what could be the solution in order to uses it for multiple users ? with their respective home directories | 13:13 |
| tyuiop | in a hidden ways | 13:13 |
| ikonia | it depends on if you want a shared space, or multiple jails with individual user context | 13:13 |
| tyuiop | mulitple jails with individual user context | 13:14 |
| ikonia | so you'd need to setup jail routing in your config so the user auth directs you to the user jail | 13:14 |
| ikonia | much like the default home directory model works | 13:15 |
| tyuiop | thanks any tutorial for that ? | 13:17 |
| ikonia | sure there are loads | 13:18 |
| tyuiop | chroot is not jail | 13:19 |
| tyuiop | what are you saying ? | 13:19 |
| ikonia | chroot is a jail | 13:19 |
| tyuiop | so what method is better for my purpose ? | 13:21 |
| ikonia | I don't know what your purplse is | 13:22 |
| ikonia | purpose | 13:22 |
| tyuiop | the solution you mentioned earlier | 13:23 |
| ikonia | that's a solution | 13:24 |
| ikonia | what is the problem you are trying to solve | 13:24 |
| tyuiop | just need to acces to the server with multiple id | 13:24 |
| tyuiop | with hidden contents between each users | 13:25 |
| ikonia | so just use the default sftp server - that defaults to home directories | 13:26 |
| ikonia | and users can't see each others home directorys | 13:26 |
| takov751 | Greetings i have a real specific problem where i couldnt find a proper solution this is seems to be a snap related question. I installed snap lxd and now it does mess up my docker as it starts a dnsmasq for all interface . So if its running some of my docker fails to bind to that specific port on different interface and if i kill dnsmasq i have no dns in lxc instance. So how could i tell the dnsmasq to only shout on specific | 13:27 |
| takov751 | ip or leave out a specific interface? | 13:27 |
| tyuiop | so how you can call each users for their corresponding directories in sshd_config ? | 13:29 |
| ikonia | tyuiop: not sure what you mean | 13:30 |
| tyuiop | well now i m following this tuto | 13:31 |
| tyuiop | https://www.le-geek.com/openssh-creer-un-acces-sftp-sur-un-seul-repertoire-sous-linux/ | 13:31 |
| tyuiop | how user2 can connect to it ? | 13:32 |
| tyuiop | multiple id means | 13:36 |
| MdAyq0 | Dear support, since an update of several packages in Ubuntu focal today I cannot connect to Internet via Ethernet cable but only through WiFi. What has happened here? How do I debug this? | 13:49 |
| lotuspsychje | MdAyq0: did you get a kernel update? | 13:50 |
| MdAyq0 | No. systemd, base-files, evince and a bunch of other files. | 13:50 |
| ikonia | MdAyq0: what is the network config when using the cable | 13:50 |
| MdAyq0 | @ikonia What do you mean by this? | 13:51 |
| tatertotz | MdAyq0: are you chatting from the computer right now? | 13:51 |
| MdAyq0 | ikonia I mean, what exactly do you wish to know? | 13:51 |
| MdAyq0 | tatertotz Yes. | 13:51 |
| ikonia | MdAyq0: basics - is link detected, does it get an IP, does it get a dns server, is the default route correct, are there conflicting routes | 13:52 |
| ikonia | basic networking info | 13:52 |
| MdAyq0 | ikonia (1) "Is link detected" - There are two lamps on the Ethernet port the patch cable is connected to: one is constantly yellow, the other flashes yellow. Is it good or bad? | 13:55 |
| ikonia | MdAyq0: you should see link status in the network status or the syslog | 13:56 |
| tatertotz | MdAyq0: in terminal> inxi -Fxxprzc0|nc termbin.com 9999 | 13:56 |
| tatertotz | MdAyq0: share url/link here..if you do not get a url/link..say so | 13:56 |
| tatertotz | MdAyq0: follow instructions to install if not installed and follow through | 13:57 |
| MdAyq0 | ikonia How do I conslt the network status? Previously, I used ifconfig, but this command is not there any longer. | 13:57 |
| ikonia | ethtool is a start | 13:58 |
| ikonia | ip addr | 13:58 |
| ikonia | network manager | 13:58 |
| ikonia | the syslog | 13:58 |
| MdAyq0 | tatertotz I see "inxi -Fxxprzc0|nc termbin.com 9999". The command inxi is not found. | 13:58 |
| oerheks | install inxi? easy peasy | 13:59 |
| sk3ngm4n | Are there any applications that let you control your fan speeds? | 13:59 |
| MdAyq0 | ikonia I typed in "ip addr" and got this: | 13:59 |
| oerheks | sk3ngm4n, why would you override this bios function? | 13:59 |

| ikonia | MdAyq0: use pastebins | 14:00 |
| sk3ngm4n | Basically, when I used Windows, I had this pre-installed app which allowed me to select the limit at which my fans could spin | 14:00 |
| oerheks | bad idea.. | 14:01 |
| sk3ngm4n | I could select a balanced mode, a gaming mode, a low power mode, etc | 14:01 |
| MdAyq0 | @ikonia https://pastebin.com/5xtmWegR | 14:01 |
| oerheks | the bios regulates the speed, nothing to do about that | 14:01 |
| sk3ngm4n | I had another question then | 14:01 |
| oerheks | but, you can with fancontrol, not my suggestion! | 14:01 |
| oerheks | !info fancontrol | 14:01 |
| ubottu | fancontrol (source: lm-sensors): utility to control the fan speed. In component universe, is extra. Version 1:3.6.0-2ubuntu1 (focal), package size 21 kB, installed size 94 kB | 14:01 |
| sk3ngm4n | Gotcha! Can I please ask another question? | 14:01 |
| sk3ngm4n | Every time I try and launch an app with a right click, it gives me an option to 'Launch with Graphics Card' | 14:03 |
| sk3ngm4n | Why does it do that? If i dont launch it with graphics card, would that make it slower? | 14:03 |
| oerheks | what pp does this? | 14:04 |
| oerheks | c/app | 14:04 |
| sk3ngm4n | How do I check that? | 14:04 |
| * oerheks never seen such start option | 14:04 | |
| sk3ngm4n | I can take a screenshot if you want | 14:05 |
| sk3ngm4n | But I don't know how to share one | 14:05 |
| oerheks | is it something like this; https://askubuntu.com/questions/912299/ubuntu-gnome-17-04-launch-using-dedicated-graphics-card-globally | 14:05 |
| MdAyq0 | tatertotz https://pastebin.com/5xtmWegR | 14:06 |
| sk3ngm4n | That is exactly what it is | 14:06 |
| MdAyq0 | @tatertotz https://termbin.com/bef6 | 14:06 |
| oerheks | so you can launch an app with a 2nd GPU, that is nice. so not the slower integrated intel one.. | 14:06 |
| sk3ngm4n | My question one, how can I launch them with dedicated graphics card using command line? | 14:07 |
| sk3ngm4n | *question was | 14:07 |
| oerheks | DRI_PRIME=1 inkscape (from my url) | 14:08 |
| sk3ngm4n | Ahhhh nice, thank you! | 14:08 |
| oerheks | or edit the launcher; Exec=env DRI_PRIME=1 inkscape %F | 14:08 |
| MdAyq0 | @ikonia @tatertotz Any idea What to do next? | 14:09 |
| sk3ngm4n | Thanks oerheks. SHould this have effect on the performance? | 14:10 |
| oerheks | skalis, 2nd gpu is better, sure | 14:14 |
| Delemas | Ubuntu 16.04.6 Desktop DVD iso. I need to boot from the DVD and get a working text console. I'm stuck at a text console that wants a username and password. What is the root password for the install media or some other way I can login? | 14:31 |
| oerheks | name empty, password ubuntu | 14:32 |
| oerheks | but normally the gui appears? | 14:32 |
| === 7IZAAFT23 is now known as jje__ | ||
| Delemas | One would think but it doesn't. I'm doing it over a painful IPMI device so who knows.. | 14:33 |
| oerheks | oh oke | 14:33 |
| Delemas | Hmm empty ubuntu doesn't work. It just seems to respawn the login prompt. No error or anything... | 14:36 |
| ioria | Delemas, try the contrary: name ubuntu; passwd empty | 14:36 |
| Delemas | Ah I got into the desktop using CTRL ALT 7. No idea why that didn't come up by default. Prompt IPMI related... | 14:37 |
| Delemas | Probably IPMI related I mean... | 14:37 |
| Delemas | Thanks for the help guys. | 14:43 |
| oerheks | have fun! | 14:44 |
| Delemas | Nothing like root BTRFS corruption for a fun day. lol | 14:46 |
| nescius | hi lotuspsychje, yesterday I asked for help with hdmi - having two monitors while one has audio output, but the other one is always selected as output after restart, i am running 18.04 with nvidia proprietary driver version 440 | 15:33 |
| chewb | hello, i deleted /var/lib/dpkg by mistake, what should i do now | 15:50 |
| oerheks | chewb, maybe this fix works for you too | 15:52 |
| oerheks | https://anglehit.com/how-to-recover-deleted-dpkg-directory-in-debian-or-ubuntu/ | 15:52 |
| oerheks | start with; sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/dpkg/{alternatives,info,parts,triggers,updates} and so on | 15:53 |
| zeroes | I have removed powerstat package, but why apropos gives me a hit in search? | 15:56 |
| zeroes | after removing/purging powerstat, then I still get a hit from apropos by powerstat keyword search | 15:58 |
| Amaranth | It should have already happened but try `sudo mandb` to update the cache | 16:08 |
| Amaranth | If that doesn't do it perhaps that package has a bug and didn't actually remove the man page | 16:08 |
| Bushmaster | hi, so SSH do not allow moving file from command line ? Take a look at this https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/BZTnJhDm57/ | 16:11 |
| rangergord | Any recommendations for a terminal partition editor, that has a textual GUI like the one you use in the Ubuntu installer? Or is parted the only choice? | 16:15 |
| genii | Probably why you should use rsync instead | 16:15 |
| juanonymous | Hi, i am get this error today in my desktop 'Failure: File system check of the root filesystem failed The root filesystem on /dev/sda2 requires a manual fsck' | 16:37 |
| IsntFunny | Hey everyone. I am using ubuntu server (focal) on a rpi4 but i am missing a lot of pakcages with apt, any idea what i can do? | 16:38 |
| juanonymous | I recently shutdown desktop because it froze and when i came back i get that error | 16:38 |
| IsntFunny | universe, multiverse etc. is added | 16:38 |
| juanonymous | Shutdown, without shutting it down properly. | 16:39 |
| juanonymous | Running ubuntu 20.04 focal | 16:40 |
| M_aD | juanonymous: probably the filesystem got corrupted ending up with bad sector. So fsck it. | 16:47 |
| SrPx | Hey guys, I'm really having *a lot* of trouble using BSPWM alone. After hours and hours of config I still 1. can't connect to wifi networks, 2. can't make the brightness, volume function keys to work, 3. can't make logout-when-close-lid work, 4. night mode works with redshift but is buggy, thinks day is night even after I configured latitude/longitude, 5. can't easily adjust mouse and trackpad speeds (I need to edit a | 16:52 |
| SrPx | matrix wtf). With all this trouble I wonder if there is a way to get *just* the windows management but still retain the rest of Gnome (specially the settings UIs and top bar)? | 16:52 |
| nescius | SrPx: i dont see how network manager issues are related to a window manager, but I would ask at #bspwm | 17:18 |
| TheWild | hello | 17:30 |
| TheWild | hey, I noticed that on new Ubuntu I can't just impersonate a nonexistent user (like sudo -iu '#12345'). Was that a bug? | 17:31 |
| juanonymous | M_aD: ok, so ive gotten pass through to my desktop. However, there is another problem. The process is really slow. Like, when i open programs, browser, it takes more than 5 minutes to open it. | 17:33 |
| juanonymous | I noticed that there is also a problem updating and upgrading. | 17:33 |
| ch1ngh4m | Can you cause a kernel meltdown? | 17:38 |
| ch1ngh4m | Is there a command as in? | 17:38 |
| oerheks | TheWild, never seen that operation, should that user be in sudoers? | 17:38 |
| oerheks | ch1ngh4m, if there was, i would not share it. | 17:39 |
| ch1ngh4m | I just wanted to try it on my virtual machine | 17:39 |
| ch1ngh4m | But there isn't one then? | 17:39 |
| ch1ngh4m | If not, can you at least inform me on what does cause a kernel meltdown? | 17:40 |
| oerheks | oke a hint to search for.. | 17:40 |
| oerheks | !forkbomb | 17:40 |
| ubottu | A forkbomb spells certain doom. It is a command that will take all clock cycles on a computer and render the machine in dire need of a reboot! | 17:40 |
| ch1ngh4m | Thanks! After the reboot, the machine comes back to normal? | 17:40 |
| oerheks | sure | 17:40 |
| ch1ngh4m | I am going to try it now in fact | 17:41 |
| TheWild | oerheks: well, the user calling sudo pretty sure has to be in sudoers, but not the user they're logging into. | 17:41 |
| oerheks | TheWild, i surely like to know more about this, is it debian specific? | 17:43 |
| ch1ngh4m | I found... | 17:44 |
| ch1ngh4m | :(){ :|:& };: | 17:44 |
| ch1ngh4m | This | 17:44 |
| oerheks | yes, but please do not paste it here | 17:44 |
| ch1ngh4m | Oh sorry | 17:45 |
| ch1ngh4m | My bad | 17:45 |
| TheWild | :shrug: I don't know. I learned this when I had to deal with permissions problem on USB stick without creating new user. | 17:45 |
| TheWild | Still works on 18.04 but not on 20.04. | 17:45 |
| oerheks | some try any command that rolls by | 17:45 |
| ch1ngh4m | OOh debian is bugging out xD | 17:46 |
| ch1ngh4m | Resource temporarily available | 17:46 |
| TheWild | by the way, why the hell someone removed "allow-bold" functionality from gnome-terminal? Wouldn't be better to add it to GUI instead? | 17:46 |
| TheWild | Do you know how crappy PxPlus fonts look when they are rendered in bold? | 17:47 |
| ch1ngh4m | It is not restarting though | 17:47 |
| ch1ngh4m | Just an endless loop of resource temporarily unavailable | 17:47 |
| oerheks | TheWild, i think you need to disable system theme for that in settings | 17:47 |
| TheWild | oerheks: no, it wasn't that. | 17:49 |
| TheWild | It was deliberate removal, gnome-terminal, commit 72dc2cf6 | 17:49 |
| oerheks | oh :-( | 17:49 |
| oerheks | seems to be a cleanup,.. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=762247#c36 | 17:52 |
| ubottu | Gnome bug 762247 in general "Support disable auto brighten foreground for bold text" [Enhancement,New] | 17:52 |
| thyriaen | Hiho, i have two problems on my fresh Ubuntu(gnome) 20.04 install ( default kernel ), which might be interconnected *often* i get this error when i shutdown my laptop ( it hangs ) and when i plug in my Ethernet to USB-C in dmesg doesn't change at all - any advice ? | 17:53 |
| TheWild | "cleanup" | 17:54 |
| TheWild | make program less configurable | 17:54 |
| ch1ngh4m | Oh god... | 17:56 |
| ch1ngh4m | I found this command | 17:56 |
| ch1ngh4m | And it deleted everything in the root folder | 17:56 |
| oerheks | i do agree i would expect that feature, manuals are more human readable | 17:56 |
| ch1ngh4m | Including the user I was using | 17:56 |
| ch1ngh4m | The point of this was...I want to know if the user can be recovered | 17:57 |
| mekhami | is alsa better than pulseaudio? i'm having endless nightmares with pulseaudio... | 18:07 |
| lotuspsychje | mekhami: explain your problem please? | 18:10 |
| mekhami | half the time my machine starts up pulseaudio fails to initialize, and if i do something like `pactl list` i get Connection failure: Connection refused | 18:15 |
| lotuspsychje | mekhami: pastebin your dmesg please, volunteers will have a look | 18:16 |
| mekhami | my dmesg is full of usb_set_interface failed | 18:17 |
| lotuspsychje | we dont mind | 18:17 |
| SpeakerToMeat | Hello all | 18:17 |
| mekhami | https://gist.github.com/mekhami/eddaf03798a4a87b008154246d0e1255 | 18:17 |
| mekhami | that's my dmesg | 18:17 |
| SpeakerToMeat | Question, one thing I loved of knoppix from old was the (optionally encrypted) disk image on the pen drive which allowed you a state saving system (where you could install software and save files) across boots. Is there any way to easily achieve this off a live pen drive with modern Ubuntu? | 18:18 |
| lotuspsychje | mekhami: wich nvidia driver version are you on? | 18:21 |
| mekhami | 440.100 | 18:21 |
| lotuspsychje | mekhami: did you try the switch yet to 435 as a test? | 18:21 |
| mekhami | no, not sure what that has to do with pulseaudio failing to start.. | 18:22 |
| lotuspsychje | mekhami: we have several users reporting audio troubles on the 440 recently, try? | 18:22 |
| mekhami | lotuspsychje: while i try that, when i `pulseaudio -k` and `pulseaudio` i get `E: Daemon already running.` `E: pa_pid_file_create() failed.` | 18:28 |
| oerheks | after killing, it respawns, no need to start manually | 18:30 |
| mekhami | don't know what package to install for nvidia-435 | 18:30 |
| mekhami | it's not in the apt-cache search list | 18:30 |
| lotuspsychje | mekhami: switch drivers in software&sources/tab additional drivers | 18:30 |
| mekhami | i don't have gnome or a gui | 18:31 |
| SpeakerToMeat | Hmmm I wonder what's preferable for a machine that only supports 13.04 and 10.04 (lucid) | 18:31 |
| SpeakerToMeat | My instinct says Lucid | 18:31 |
| lotuspsychje | SpeakerToMeat: what kind of machine would that be? | 18:33 |
| SpeakerToMeat | lotuspsychje, old MacBook | 18:33 |
| SpeakerToMeat | MacBook4,1 | 18:33 |
| SpeakerToMeat | Hmmm I wonder if 10.04 had efi already, I wanna live-boot this.. so probably 13.04 is my best option | 18:34 |
| lotuspsychje | SpeakerToMeat: i have very good experiences with 18.04, but indeed the mac cant be too old | 18:36 |
| SpeakerToMeat | lotuspsychje, Well being a live and not install, I can always test boot | 18:36 |
| phigan | those things were so cute | 18:36 |
| phigan | what about some other lightweight linux? like crunchbangplusplus or something | 18:37 |
| oerheks | we only support ubuntu and official flavors, Lubuntu perhaps? | 18:45 |
| mekhami | lotuspsychje: when iopened the software/sources thing and looked at additional drivers tab, it just hangs on 'searching for available drivers' | 18:45 |
| gurki | why dont you use some modern distro and use a window manager thats a bit more efficient than the default? | 18:45 |
| oerheks | mekhami, it is checking online, just wait | 18:46 |
| gurki | most distributions are "i liked thiw wm better" anyway | 18:46 |
| gurki | this* | 18:46 |
| gurki | eh. most flavors of ubuntu*. wrong wording. | 18:46 |
| lotuspsychje | mekhami: didnt you just say you did not have a GUI? | 18:47 |
| mekhami | i opened it via `software-properties-gtk` | 18:47 |
| tripleb | I have a question which is, is this true? ff: the only difference between ubuntu distributions is the E+DE that sits on the top of the X-server. <== True or False? | 18:48 |
| tripleb | Not E+ blank those 2 characters out. | 18:49 |
| oerheks | DE and WM and set of software, yes | 18:49 |
| tripleb | what is WM? | 18:49 |
| oerheks | windows manager, gdm, sddm and such | 18:50 |
| tripleb | so we are saying that Ubuntu is fast by itself and it is the DE that drags it down. | 18:50 |
| oerheks | jups | 18:50 |
| oerheks | mate and gnome3 are a huge difference in speed and experience | 18:50 |
| tripleb | So I can install standard Ubuntu and then add the Xcfe DE and it will be as fast as if I burn an Subuntu iso to begin with | 18:51 |
| tripleb | Xubuntu. | 18:51 |
| gurki | tripleb: i lterally answered your questions three lines before you asked it. | 18:51 |
| gurki | :D | 18:51 |
| tripleb | sorry my laptop screen is obscuring my other monitor and I trusted my typing. | 18:51 |
| oerheks | sure, you can add a desktop.. but removing one is interesting. | 18:52 |
| tripleb | I dont know what gdm and sddm are. So also not and such. | 18:52 |
| tripleb | So I can install standard Ubuntu and then add the Xcfe DE and it will be as fast as if I burn an Subuntu iso to begin with | 18:52 |
| oerheks | maybe .. | 18:53 |
| tripleb | gurkiI dont see any response from you before the one in which you told me you had already answered.... | 18:53 |
| tripleb | only from oerheks | 18:54 |
| tripleb | oerhekswill it run slower because the desktop environment is there but I am not using it? | 18:54 |
| tripleb | ah gurki I see it up there. You dont think there is any difference and people are jiving us when they say one de is faster than another one. I thought that was sarcastic and not an answer. | 18:55 |
| coconut | tripleb, depends which DE is configured to be loaded from your DM | 18:55 |
| tripleb | I have a friend who needs a distro that is faster and that will let me hack the password when needed. (He was using mint cinnmon but did say it was slow.) | 18:56 |
| mekhami | oerheks: well it's been waiting for... 10 minutes now | 18:56 |
| lotuspsychje | mekhami: how about you try to sudo apt install your-nvidia-driver-here | 18:57 |
| mekhami | ......... do you really think i didn't try that? i told you at the start it doesn't show up in apt-cache search | 18:58 |
| tripleb | DM is desktop manager? That is obvious. Just having a program on the hard drive dies not mean that that program is running, coconut | 18:58 |
| tripleb | So I will take that as a yes. I dont have to burn anything new. | 18:58 |
| tripleb | I will give him the thrill of being able to change his de. | 18:59 |
| tripleb | thanks and away | 18:59 |
| lotuspsychje | mekhami: ubuntu-drivers list | 19:00 |
| SpeakerToMeat | Yes but if 13.04 runs... why not | 19:00 |
| mekhami | lotuspsychje: just hanging. | 19:00 |
| tripleb | gurki I think you kind of assume that everyone is using fast new computers. In that case the DE IS a matter of personal preference. (My laptop is 2016 and his.. well, it is a Gateway. So it's "wealth priviledge that you have, lol.) | 19:02 |
| coconut | tripleb, yup | 19:03 |
| JuJUBee | I need some help figuring out a wifi problem. I posted : https://askubuntu.com/questions/1261383/my-xubuntu-gateway-is-slowing-my-internet-speeds | 19:07 |
| mekhami | lotuspsychje: well after some finagling i installed `nvidia-driver-435` which doesn't seem to work. i reboot and it's not picking up my monitors anymore. | 19:09 |
| mekhami | only one of three. | 19:09 |
| lotuspsychje | mekhami: this was a test for your sound | 19:10 |
| mekhami | lotuspsychje: yeah and who led me down the dumb rabbit hole of installing video drivers | 19:10 |
| lotuspsychje | mekhami: if you never test something nothing will ever change | 19:11 |
| gurki | tripleb: if you want to act offended at least try to be offended when its remotely appropriate. i literally told you to use $thing that runs on slower things :D | 19:14 |
| gurki | my laptop is way older than yours and runs recent wms just fine btw. | 19:14 |
| thyriaen | I just installed Ubuntu(Gnome) 20.04 and something keeps popping up in my notification area and disappearing again: https://imgur.com/a/3Low0SZ what is that symbol for ? | 19:14 |
| oerheks | laptop power supply | 19:15 |
| oerheks | maybe your battery is full/edge of treshold | 19:15 |
| tripleb | A new question from a forever-noob: there is snap, flatpak, and tasksel. What are they and compare and contrast? | 19:15 |
| oerheks | tripleb, sure you can find that online, please don't put post for forever-noob in here, thanks | 19:16 |
| tripleb | gurkiI am not offended. I truely didnt understand. My entire question was to find out what $thing is. (I am amused by BASIC notation.) | 19:17 |
| thyriaen | turns out, since i am using a ethernet-to-usbc adapter - it blinks - can i somehow disable that ? it is really distracing | 19:18 |
| tripleb | ok oerheks I will look. I thought I had looked and mene mene takel upharison. I will now go look again. | 19:18 |
| tripleb | oerheksnot even one mentions tasksel not even when I put it again ans the first seach term and repeated term. So I wont ask here. | 19:20 |
| SpeakerToMeat | My general questionsOk it seems EFI booting appeared in 11.10 | 19:21 |
| SpeakerToMeat | I wonder if he tested the sound while running 435 | 19:22 |
| SrPx | How do I make setxkbmap commands persistent? I've been googling and tried adding them to several different files like .xinitrc, .profile and others. Nothing worked so far. | 19:37 |
| sarnold | SrPx: add something like "touch srpx-was-here" to your files to see if they are executing at all | 19:39 |
| SrPx | sarnold: good advice, ty | 19:39 |
| waveform | IsntFunny, which packages are you missing on ubuntu on your pi? | 19:55 |
| IsntFunny | v4l-utils for example | 19:56 |
| IsntFunny | ffmpeg too | 19:56 |
| waveform | the current ffmpeg in ubuntu doesn't have vc4 acceleration; we're working on that for groovy (and I would've thought we could SRU that to focal); let me check on v4l-utils | 19:57 |
| waveform | hmm, v4l-utils seems to be present on all archs so that should be installable, though as mentioned I doubt it'll have any h/w acceleration for vc4 enabled yet | 19:59 |
| SrPx | I'm using Pop Shell as a tiling windows manager for Ubuntu, but it leaves gaps around windows and gnome-terminal, even with gap=0 setting. How can I fully remove the gaps? | 20:20 |
| SrPx | Perhaps it is a gnome-terminal thing. What terminals are you all using? (: | 20:21 |
| emmet | Hi, I am very frustrated, wanted to open an HTML file with Chromium. Cannot, as I figured out after search a while, because it is installed as a snap that cannot access /usr/share/doc/python3.8/html. When I then wanted to install chromium via apt instead of snap, it showed a message "Installing the chromium snap". How am I going to watch html files on Ubuntu? | 20:26 |
| quadrathoch2 | emmet I guess you should look into the permissions of that snap | 20:27 |
| gildarts | Or look up how to turn snaps off completely. | 20:28 |
| emmet | Ok, I will, but it is odd to have to look into permissions of snap when I never wanted to use snap and only wanted to open an html file in a web browser | 20:28 |
| quadrathoch2 | gildarts which wouldn't work as chromium is only on snap | 20:28 |
| d3v0n | Srpx: tilix | 20:28 |
| gildarts | quadrathoch2: Ah, wasn't aware. When did they make that change? | 20:29 |
| quadrathoch2 | 20.04 gildarts | 20:29 |
| quadrathoch2 | you can thank google for that ;) | 20:30 |
| gildarts | Ah, I'm only running 20.04 on a server and went through the process to completely turn off snaps because it was causing issues with some server apps. | 20:30 |
| gildarts | No GUI apps on that system though. | 20:30 |
| waveform | emmet, you can fire up a local http server to view any local html files; there's one built into python3. For instance: python3 -m http.server -d path-to-html-files | 20:31 |
| waveform | then visit http://localhost:8000/ in your browser | 20:31 |
| leftyfb | google chrome doesn't have this problem ;) | 20:31 |
| emmet | Good idea, that would work. Funny how we have to be creative because of snap. | 20:31 |
| waveform | yes - I can't say I'm a particular fan of the confinement, but at least there is a simple workaround in this case | 20:32 |
| SrPx | d3v0n: ty | 20:32 |

| IsntFunny | waveform, any idea why it is not available then? | 20:52 |
| waveform | IsntFunny, it is on mine - at least it apt installs quite happily. Which version of ubuntu are you using? | 20:53 |
| IsntFunny | oh right now i get: E: Release file for http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/focal-updates/InRelease is not valid yet (invalid for another 4h 14min 51s). Updates for this repository will not be applied. | 20:53 |
| IsntFunny | i am on focal | 20:54 |
| waveform | IsntFunny, ahhh - your clock isn't synced | 20:54 |
| waveform | IsntFunny, common problem on pi's - when timesyncd / ntp has got the clock right (or you've manually set it correctly) it should work | 20:54 |
| IsntFunny | it's freshly installed so i did not set up anything yet | 20:55 |
| IsntFunny | https://p.styler2go.de/6852597 time looks around correct except that i am in UTC+2 | 20:56 |
| waveform | it *should* sync automatically if it's got a network connection; I think timedatectl or something like that is the "modern" way of querying systemd's built-in time sync | 20:56 |
| IsntFunny | i see, i just need the correct timezone | 20:56 |
| waveform | ah, sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata | 20:56 |
| waveform | or it may be that you were just trying apt before it'd synced the clock (I've occasionally run into that myself) | 20:57 |
| IsntFunny | oh now it also finds upgrades! | 20:57 |
| waveform | yup :) | 20:58 |
| IsntFunny | earlier today, when i asked, it didn't show me the error above (regarding the not valid yet) | 20:58 |
| IsntFunny | hmm but it still cant find v4l-utils | 21:04 |
| IsntFunny | https://p.styler2go.de/9045240 | 21:05 |
| IsntFunny | Also, some ffmpeg dependencies seem to be missing? | 21:06 |
| Bashing-om | !info ffmpeg focal | 21:10 |
| ubottu | ffmpeg (source: ffmpeg): Tools for transcoding, streaming and playing of multimedia files. In component universe, is optional. Version 7:4.2.4-1ubuntu0.1 (focal), package size 1418 kB, installed size 2010 kB | 21:10 |
| IsntFunny | It does find the ffmpeg but not the dependencies | 21:12 |
| Bashing-om | isantop: Pastebin ' apt policy libavcodec58 ' . | 21:21 |
| Bashing-om | sorry isantop - OP left and I did not pay attention :( | 21:22 |
| arooni | hey team | 22:08 |
| oerheks | :-) | 22:08 |
| arooni | hey folks; on ubuntu 18.04 trying to connect to a samba share on my router via the version 3 protocol; as a guest with no password; and i tried with the following entry in /etc/fstab: //192.168.1.1/mnt /media/HardDriveArooni cifs guest,uid=1000,iocharset=utf8,dir_mode=0777,file_mode=0777,gid=1000,auto,_netdev,vers=3.0 0 0 ;; which seems to result in "[46186.784335] CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed | 22:10 |
| arooni | w/return code = -2" -- not sure why because i can connect to the drive via my mac | 22:10 |
| arooni | full path is technically /mnt/drive | 22:10 |
| arooni | (from the routers perspective) | 22:10 |
| Apachez | wohoo 20.04.1 LTS got released :) | 22:25 |
| hansh | running "apt install phpmyadmin" installs php-tcpdf as a dependency... i'm pretty sure tcpdf is a bogus dependency for phpmyadmin | 22:30 |
| hansh | probably a bug causing that dependency (at no point does phpmyadmin do anything with PDF's, afaik) | 22:31 |
| sarnold | there's a flag like --no-install-recommends that can sometimes help with those kinds of cases | 22:31 |
| Mordoc | uit | 22:31 |
| sarnold | no pormises | 22:31 |
| hansh | sarnold, don't see how tcpdf should even be a recommended addon for phpmyadmin | 22:32 |
| elias_a | I am trying to install 20.04 desktop using minimal installation option. Installation seems to install stuff like LibreOffice help files. Is this what it is supposed to do? | 22:32 |
| sarnold | hansh: it's probably a transitive dependency | 22:32 |
| Bashing-om | apa | 22:33 |
| hansh | elias_a, ubuntu or x lu edu whatever ubuntu? | 22:34 |
| elias_a | Note to self: installation seems to install everything to begin with and then it removes a lot of packages. I don't understand this logic. :P | 22:34 |
| elias_a | hansh: Regular ubuntu 20.04. | 22:35 |
| quadrathoch2 | yeah it was easier to implement than the other way around | 22:36 |
| elias_a | So there's really no way to use the minimal installation of you are short of disk space... | 22:37 |
| elias_a | Well... I do not have that problem. Just made me wondering and cancel the installation a couple of times as I thought I had chosen the wrong option. :) | 22:38 |
| Apachez | will a regular apt-get dist-upgrade work to go from 20.04 LTS to 20.04.1 LTS? Or do I have to do do-release-upgrade? | 22:38 |
| sarnold | apt upgrade or apt-get dist-upgrade will do fine. it's mostly just new install media | 22:39 |
| Bashing-om | Apachez: 20.04.1 not due out till Aug 6 : https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-release/2020-June/004980.html | 22:39 |
| supastupid | Hello, when i try to run sudo apt update, it shows this https://bpa.st/AGSQ | 23:15 |

| supastupid | ubuntu...? | 23:17 |
| tomreyn | yes! and note how this differs from pop-os | 23:17 |
