| sarnold | courrier: there's a bunch of translations on https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/focal/+lang/fr | 00:02 |
|---|---|---|
| lotuspsychje | i know dutch & french translations on flavours can be slow sometimes, needs the right ppl poke | 00:04 |
| courrier | sarnold: I can't find any blueman-* package listed there | 00:06 |
| courrier | But I can't understand is that these strings do have some translation in the upstream package... does it mean that Ubuntu overrides the translations somehow? | 00:07 |
| tripleb | I understand that the equalizer program for ubuntu does not work in 20.04 - Does anyone know anything that works? I know that "archive.org" has a web equalizer (I clicked on the llama to find it) -- This is the control-player that I used. It came with a particular archive/concert. | 00:08 |
| courrier | lotuspsychje: I can help for french! Is there any way we can get notified for specific languages? | 00:08 |
| tripleb | AND what does the settings display choice of "adjust for tv" mean? -- and can I have better resolution on my tv than my laptop screen? | 00:08 |
| tripleb | Tripelb tries again. I want to trun the autoarrange on the desktop OFF. I dont get that choice in the submenu when I R-click on the desktop...) | 00:08 |
| sarnold | courrier: hmm, I wonder if that version of blueman has made it into debian yet? https://codesearch.debian.net/search?q=_Rendre&literal=0 --> one hit, in package crimson | 00:08 |
| tripleb | courrier, that is a good idea. j'approve. | 00:09 |
| tripleb | je l'approve. | 00:10 |
| courrier | j'approuve :) | 00:10 |
| sarnold | j'accuse! | 00:10 |
| courrier | that's different | 00:10 |
| lotuspsychje | courrier: i would reccomend joining #ubuntu-translators and talk to gunnarJ when you filed your new !bug | 00:11 |
| oerheks | tripleb, and, ... have yo tried "adjust for tv"? | 00:11 |
| mason | Mon aéroglisseur est plein d’anguilles. | 00:11 |
| lotuspsychje | courrier: he's the translate wizard to point you in the right direction | 00:11 |
| Synx_hm | Anybody running podman on ubuntu? I just did a apt upgrade a 'crun' seems to be gone | 00:12 |
| oerheks | Synx_hm, podman as snap? | 00:13 |
| Synx_hm | nope podman from the kubric deb repo | 00:13 |
| oerheks | oh, no support for 3rd party repos. file a bug with them? | 00:13 |
| Synx_hm | ya asked in the podman channel on freenode but its dead there figured id ask here | 00:14 |
| Synx_hm | thank you | 00:14 |
| pjs | why would "id" and "id myusername" be different? https://paste.sr.ht/~petersanchez/f0be8dd6ded953c56b03fc8d349386b8cd4cabc5 | 00:14 |
| sarnold | Synx_hm: check dpkg -L podman output, maybe you'll spot it somewhere else in the filesystem | 00:14 |
| Synx_hm | thanks! | 00:15 |
| sarnold | pjs: my theory is that a bare 'id' is showing the user, group, and groups, of the current process; 'id username' is looking up the user, group, and groups, from the nameservice databases | 00:16 |
| oerheks | id is the list of system users, and id $USER is services running under your user? | 00:17 |
| oerheks | or, where you are member of | 00:17 |
| pjs | oerheks: the man page says id, without username, uses the user that is running the command | 00:17 |
| mason | pjs: It's worth an strace of each to see what's happening. | 00:17 |
| sarnold | yes, the strace will explain it well :D | 00:17 |
| mason | strace -ftttTvyyo /tmp/some.reasonable.filename -s 4096 id | 00:18 |
| pjs | hah, ok cool. Just thought I was missing something obvious | 00:18 |
| oerheks | why does tripleb shoot questions, and never read back? | 00:19 |
| OneFJef | Is there a way to disable the notification popups that drop down from the title bar while using the geary email client? Or rather what is the name of that notification bar? | 00:21 |
| lotuspsychje | courrier: thank you for filing bug #1891950 | 00:21 |
| ubottu | bug 1891950 in blueman (Ubuntu) "Missing some French translations" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1891950 | 00:21 |
| courrier | lotuspsychje: ok! What timezone is gunnarJ? There's not much people in there rn | 00:21 |
| courrier | lotuspsychje: :) | 00:21 |
| lotuspsychje | courrier: european timezone, daytime | 00:21 |
| lotuspsychje | courrier: another idea might be poke some #ubuntu-mate or #ubuntu-fr users to help affect your bug to get confirmed | 00:22 |
| courrier | yes, let's see with #ubuntu-fr | 00:23 |
| courrier | btw, what does the underscore mean in the po file? | 00:23 |
| courrier | Like shown in the en/fr messages I circled in orange? | 00:23 |
| courrier | some strings are cut in half like Aid_e instead of Aide | 00:24 |
| lotuspsychje | not sure | 00:24 |
| courrier | OK | 00:26 |
| sarnold | courrier: probably those turn into accelerator keys | 00:26 |
| sarnold | alt+f to open File, then q to Quit | 00:27 |
| sarnold | (I thought & was the usual marker for those, but there's no denying that _ is way easier to read.) | 00:27 |
| courrier | oh ok. So that would mean the letter follwing _ is the key? | 00:29 |
| sarnold | courrier: yes | 00:30 |
| courrier | ok thx sarnold | 00:31 |
| sarnold | courrier: this does make it hard to get translations correct -- you don't want to duplicate those keys within every menu where that string might be used, but that means you might need to pick non-standard choices just to make sure it is unique :( | 00:31 |
| Scriptonaut | really dumb question, but could someone tell me why this doesn't work? TEST='blah' echo "$TEST". It just echos an empty string. I'm having issues with command interpolation inside of a monit config: start program = "/bin/bash -lc 'MY_VAR=$(cat /dev/shm/some_file) some_command'" | 00:31 |
| sarnold | courrier: I've seen more than once someone translate strings without realizing this, and then users file bug reports "I can't use my keyboard anymore..." etc | 00:31 |
| Scriptonaut | I've tried echoing ${TEST} as well, still an empty string | 00:32 |
| Synx_hm | How can i use zsys (zsysctl?) to revert just the system partitions to a snapshot but leave the user data current | 00:33 |
| Scriptonaut | meanwhile, if I do: export TEST='blah'. And then echo $TEST, it works fine | 00:33 |
| courrier | sarnold: ok thank you | 00:41 |
| courrier | how do you usually proceed to trnslate in launchpad? | 00:42 |
| courrier | e.g. I'm translating cups that has only 6 missings translations | 00:42 |
| Synx_hm | f' me i cant even get into the grub menu (virtual machine on ESXi, with bios set to EFI option) | 00:42 |
| courrier | the word "dry-run" is there | 00:42 |
| courrier | there are many ways to translate it and I'd like to match the other occurences, if any | 00:42 |
| courrier | Do you open the full translation file and search for dry-run? ... | 00:43 |
| sarnold | courrier: yes, matching translations used elsewhere is usually a very good idea, but there may be a reason why it's not translated; it might take a bit of research to figure out the right thing to do | 00:44 |
| courrier | THis is what I did. The po file I receive has only one occurence of "dry-run"... very weird. | 00:46 |
| courrier | (the one that is not translated) | 00:46 |
| rfm | Scriptonaut, when you do TEST=blah command, it sets the environment in the executed command, but the substitution is done in the shell process before the subprocess runs. export TEST=blah updates the environment of the shell process | 00:50 |
| rfm | Scriptonaut, compare "TEST=blah sh -c ´echo $TEST'" where the single quotes skip substitution in the top shell and it's done in the subshell | 00:54 |
| rfm | Scriptonaut, also compare "TEST=blah;echo $TEST" where a shell variable is used instead of an envar | 00:58 |
| tripleb | no one has answered any of my questions in 3 days. I guess virtual (not office-bound) sysops dont care about helping us in their "free time". (Sad) | 01:04 |
| oerheks | tripleb, yes we did reply .. | 01:05 |
| oerheks | not repeating, " autoarrange on the desktop OFF " seems like a mint issue | 01:05 |
| tripleb | I didnt see the list text turn color. Great, let me look back | 01:05 |
| tripleb | I dont have mint. God I put mint on an older friends computer. After he forgot his password I discovered that I cant drip to root and reset his password. Man, never mint again. | 01:06 |
| tripleb | hexchat wont let me search the backscroll. (Maybe the answer didnt include my userid.) I will go bck. | 01:07 |
| tripleb | HExchat has gross (not fine) backscroll control. Page Up Page Down is the only things that works | 01:08 |
| kk4ewt | middle mouse scroll works here | 01:09 |
| tripleb | courrier, je l'approuve. | 01:09 |
| tripleb | oerheks, I tried adjust for tv but so far havent noticed any difference. | 01:10 |
| tripleb | oerheks, you cnt say NEVER. That's mean and UNtrue as you know from our previous interactions. (Truth counts.) | 01:11 |
| tripleb | I didnt see any answer. oerheks and anyone else. Sorry but I didnt see it. I didnt get a colored #ubuntu. I will look a third time. | 01:13 |
| mloki | Hi, should I already be offered the 20.04.1 upgrade? I'm using 18.04 LTS | 01:13 |
| sarnold | tripleb: okay it might be slight exaggeration but I know I've seen you not respond to replies many times | 01:13 |
| oerheks | point is, you shoot questions, and look back after hours.. | 01:14 |
| oerheks | .. and not just today | 01:14 |
| courrier | tripleb: "J'approuve" is correct. hexchat is terrible, I love LostIRC so much but it hasn't been updated for a long time and does not support secure connections :'( | 01:15 |
| courrier | "Je suis d'accord" is longer but sightly less formal | 01:15 |
| tripleb | oerheks, you cnt say NEVER. That's mean and UNtrue as you know from our previous interactions. | 01:18 |
| tripleb | I try to start Notepad++ abut it never comes up on my taskbar. | 01:18 |
| courrier | Do we agree that, for the sentence "Keeping the following package", the other sentence "The following package will be kept" is closer than "Keep the following package"? | 01:18 |
| sarnold | tripleb: dude you need a new irc client in a bad way :) | 01:18 |
| tripleb | OK I copied the backscroll and searched. THERE IS NO ANSWER that used tripleb. Saying I dont look is snotty and untrue. | 01:20 |
| tripleb | That's how linux used to have a bad rep for people. It went away. Has it come back? | 01:20 |
| tripleb | This is the most problamatic ubuntu I have ever run into. | 01:21 |

| xbfrog | ubuntu 20.04 has become slow in videos, screensaver, typing in any app. it wasnt like this whats happened? any ideas? | 06:04 |
| xbfrog | i have 8gb of memory and this issue just started | 06:07 |
| Jordan_U | semitones: Are you prepared for some experimentation to try to understand why grub-mkconfig is finding some images but not others? I can also make you a grub script that you can put in /boot/grub/custom.cfg that will just detect and make entries for your vmlinuz*-surface-lts and initrd.img*-surface-lts files at boot, so it never needs to be updated manually. The latter is actually easier than the former, | 06:09 |
| Jordan_U | but I'd really like to understand why the kernel images aren't being found, and hopefully submit a patch to fix it. | 06:09 |
| Mystified1234 | whos familar with touch screen keyboard aspects of ubuntu, I need to see if It's possible to edit the touch screen keyboard | 06:22 |

| ld50 | deleting the ~/snaps folder in ubuntu seems to break gnome dash window tracking. before, all chromium windows were neatly attributed to the chromium-browser.desktop dash icon. afterwards, they get their own dash element (using the same icon) | 06:44 |
| ld50 | i've added chromium-browser.desktop to my favorites before the ~/snap folder got created. | 07:01 |
| ld50 | when the ~/snaps folder gets created, window tracking attributes the windows to the correct favorite (the one created before the first start of the snap) until i delete ~/snaps | 07:01 |
| ld50 | ~/snaps gets re-created on the next chromium start but the window tracking stops attributing the chromium windows to the correct dash favorite and creates a new dash icon instead | 07:01 |
| lotuspsychje | ld50: check in the current bugs perhaps if you find something similar: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bugs?field.tag=snap | 07:03 |
| tatertotz | ld50: why delete a snap folder in a operating system that uses snaps and has a snap store for apps? | 07:04 |
| Intelo | Which dynamic mics do ok with ubuntu? I think due to shortage in local Turkish market, I am only left with an option to buy Behringer XM8500 or SL 84C. Both these only viable options in market are XLR and I have to buy an XLR to USB cable. Most think its not a good option bypassing audio interface like this but due to budget issues; have to do this. What might I loose by doing this? xlr to usb | 07:06 |
| Intelo | cable with 84C lets say? | 07:06 |
| ld50 | tatertotz: i'll be deploying this to users. i don't care about snaps, but users will eventually nuke ~/snaps by accident or because of "i didn't want that folder". and i have to ensure that the desktop recovers from that | 07:06 |
| ld50 | which it does not | 07:06 |
| ld50 | it breaks the window tracking | 07:06 |
| ld50 | lotuspsychje: will do | 07:07 |

| grobkorn | hello channel... new to irc channels and kind of new to linux (basic experience) .. im struggled with screen resolutions in ubuntu 20.04 - maybe someone has an ear to point me to the right direction? | 09:33 |
| grobkorn | ubuntu 20.04 - nvidia m960 (i think) and an intern 4k display... xrandr tells me, that the display is on dp-0 - but that is not right, isnt? also - the display manager cant read only ONE resolution for this display - 4k - i cant change resolution to full hd for example. | 09:35 |
| grobkorn | in nvidia-settings - i can change the resolution - but ubuntu system / display shows 4k at any time | 09:35 |
| lotuspsychje | grobkorn: wich driver version is active? | 09:36 |
| gtristan | Am I missing something, is https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1864188 really *still* not fixed ? This has been broken since february | 09:36 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1865962 in linux (Ubuntu Focal) "duplicate for #1864188 Dell XPS 13 9300 Intel 1650S wifi [34f0:1651] fails to load firmware" [Undecided,Fix released] | 09:36 |
| gtristan | I recall I had to do something to get my older kernel available in my grub menu all that while ago, and now I wonder; is that what is holding back the pending kernel update on `apt-get upgrade` ? | 09:37 |
| grobkorn | lotuspsychje: nvidia metapackage driver 4-18-server | 09:37 |
| lotuspsychje | grobkorn: oh, youre on a server? | 09:38 |
| gtristan | Surely, this is simply a silly mistake (I.e. this seems to not even be a bug, just a mistake/issue at build time), and certainly just a rebuild of the kernel will fix this as a side effect | 09:38 |
| grobkorn | lotuspsychje: nope... funny - now i see - what the failure might be *lol | 09:38 |
| gtristan | Better question: is 5.3.0-40 really still the latest kernel build for 19.10 ? | 09:39 |
| lotuspsychje | gtristan: 19.10 is eol by now, please install a supported version from our topic | 09:39 |
| grobkorn | lotuspsychje: but i cant change :( | 09:39 |
| gtristan | Already ? yikes | 09:39 |
| gtristan | I thought I installed the latest stable back in november | 09:40 |
| lotuspsychje | grobkorn: nvidia-smi should show you version/chipset | 09:40 |
| lotuspsychje | gtristan: non-lts versions are alive for 9months | 09:40 |
| gtristan | Is this easily upgradeable ? I did not frankendebian this one (for once in my life) | 09:41 |
| grobkorn | lotuspsychje: nvidia-smi tells me driver version 440.100 | 09:41 |
| lotuspsychje | gtristan: well we dont reccomend upgrading from eol versions, due to !usn security flaws | 09:41 |
| lotuspsychje | grobkorn: ok, try to switch a driver version lets say to 435 as a test, see if you can reproduce your issue | 09:41 |
| gtristan | lotuspsychje, ok so if I understand, the odd number major version (19) was the "development snapshots leading up to next stable" version 20 ? | 09:42 |
| gtristan | And thats why it is eol so quickly ? This might explain why I chose 19.08 | 09:42 |
| grobkorn | lotuspsychje thanks... after change that in system settings - should i reboot? | 09:42 |
| lotuspsychje | grobkorn: yes reboot and test | 09:43 |
| gtristan | (as I wouldnt have had support for this laptop in other stable distros) | 09:43 |
| gtristan | err s/19.08/19.10 sorry | 09:43 |
| lotuspsychje | gtristan: LTS versions go 5y standard support, non-LTS 9months | 09:44 |
| lotuspsychje | gtristan: you can jump to the next versions latest out also, but adviced to jump before its gone eol | 09:46 |
| grobkorn | lotuspsychje sorry for the quick runnaway ;) restart was faster than expecrted ;) --- now running on 435... same issue - only 4k resolution - but now i cant SCALE anymore | 09:48 |
| lotuspsychje | grobkorn: is your chipset an optimus card? | 09:49 |
| grobkorn | nvidia geforce gtx965m - i dont think so | 09:49 |
| lotuspsychje | grobkorn: ubuntu-drivers list, shows 450 too? | 09:51 |
| lotuspsychje | grobkorn: check nvidia-settings if your card is optimus and has the option powersaving/performance mode | 09:52 |
| lotuspsychje | to have the full use of your nvidia card, best to set to performance mode | 09:53 |
| grobkorn | lotuspsychje: now nvidia-settings starts with an empty window --- only OK and HELP is shown | 09:53 |
| lotuspsychje | grobkorn: hmm weird, lets see if your driver is actually loaded with sudo lshw -C video, at bottom should say driver=... | 09:54 |

| grobkorn | lotuspsychje: or is it the way, how nvidia-settings works? | 10:07 |
| lotuspsychje | grobkorn: no, screen settings & nvidia settings are different things | 10:07 |
| lotuspsychje | grobkorn: did you check if you found prime settings there? | 10:07 |
| grobkorn | lotuspsychje there are no prime settings in nvidia-settings | 10:08 |

| sopparus | hello ive just now upgraded from ubuntu 18 lts to ubuntu 20 lts | 10:19 |
| sopparus | by something went wrong | 10:19 |
| sopparus | apt is not working | 10:19 |
| sopparus | dpkg: error processing package python2-minmal (--configure): | 10:19 |
| sopparus | ive tried remove it, tried apt purge python2* to no help | 10:19 |
| sopparus | any ideas? | 10:20 |
| nickgru | hello | 10:22 |
| makara1 | im trying to download this with aria2c snap: https://releases.ubuntu.com/20.04/ubuntu-20.04.1-live-server-amd64.iso.torrent | 10:25 |
| sopparus | File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/CommandNotFound/db/creator.py", line 11, in <module> | 10:25 |
| makara1 | it fails, so I download with wget, and then ref the torrent file instead | 10:26 |
| makara1 | but i get "Exception: [download_helper.cc:451] errorCode=1 Unrecognized URI or unsupported protocol: ubuntu-20.04.1-live-server-amd64.iso.torrent" | 10:26 |
| makara1 | ok, its the snap. deb version works fine | 10:30 |
| nickgru | hi guys I have a question on cloning a laptop with ubuntu | 10:30 |
| makara1 | intriguing | 10:37 |
| makara1 | id start with a banknote | 10:37 |
| grobkorn | lotuspsychje thank you very much!!! i hope - everything is working now. didnt knew, that nvidia and system settings are different... have a nice day | 10:50 |
| nickgru | hey guys, new to irc... I am a bit confused, anyway I want to ask a question on cloning an ubuntu laptop | 10:50 |
| nickgru | is this the right place? | 10:50 |
| makara1 | nickgru: unless you've got some advanced alien technology I don't know about there's no such thing as cloning a laptop | 10:53 |
| jess | i think they mean cloning the data on it | 10:54 |
| jess | so... cloning a disk | 10:54 |
| makara1 | that would be imaging the disk | 10:54 |
| MaxLDC | yep, you can use a live usb/cd for that | 10:54 |
| nickgru | let me explain: I have 2 laptops both running ubuntu, I have some scripts that work on one laptop but do not work on the other due to missing libraries. I installed both of them in the same way and the libraries are all installed but still the scripd doesn't work on one laptop. I want to do a backup of / from the 1th laptop and copy all into the 2nd one. do you whintk it will mess up things? could it work? | 10:55 |
| MaxLDC | if there are the same laptop model should be no problem | 10:55 |
| makara1 | total overkill | 10:56 |
| MaxLDC | more easy is to copy the home folder except the config files | 10:56 |
| nickgru | the home folder contains nothing that is necessary to the script. | 10:57 |
| makara1 | seriously, just sort out the scripts/libraries | 10:57 |
| nickgru | I tried everything I gound online | 10:57 |
| nickgru | found | 10:57 |
| makara1 | can I run your scripts? | 10:57 |
| nickgru | sure it's available online but you need to install some other things as well. it's called autogrow @ autogrow.ucds.edu | 10:58 |
| nickgru | when I run it from the second laptop it give all sort of errors, like can't find pythonsh and other stuff that are actually there already | 10:59 |
| makara1 | http://autogrow.ucds.edu/ gives me server not found | 10:59 |
| nickgru | sorry https://autogrow.ucsd.edu/ | 11:00 |
| makara1 | are you using Ubuntu 12.10? | 11:02 |
| nickgru | but if I do copy the / folder, without home, and paste into the second laptop, will I mess up the laptop? basically it's the method I use to keep a backup and restore the system in case I need it. would it work from one laptop to the other? | 11:02 |
| nickgru | ubuntu20.04 | 11:02 |
| nickgru | and python3 | 11:03 |
| makara1 | nickgru: https://git.durrantlab.pitt.edu/jdurrant/autogrow4 | 11:03 |
| nickgru | it's not important the script.. it works on one laptop. I want to use the second one since it has more computational power | 11:06 |
| makara1 | if you just want to use the software, I suggest you build and run it in docker using their dockerfile | 11:06 |
| nickgru | not a good solution, I would loose the multithreading | 11:08 |
| makara1 | what makes you think that? | 11:09 |
| === CyberNekroRezus is now known as CyberNekroMaoMet | ||
| nickgru | the descriptions says that docker is made for windows wehere there is incompatibility with the multithreading | 11:16 |
| makara1 | you misunderstand. It says running autogrow in Windows without a container is incompatible with their multi-threading approach | 11:19 |
| makara1 | just cd into that docker directory and run `sudo docker build -t autogrow .` | 11:21 |

| dsuch | Hello, I am using Ubuntu Mate 18.04. I have a Mac system in my LAN that I connected to via Caja (Nautilus), apparently, it uses sftp:// to connect to the remote system. | 12:06 |

| lain99 | on ubuntu 18.04 "apt show automake" says that previous versions are available because backwards compatibility was broken. but "apt list automake -a" shows only 1 version | 13:04 |
| ocean | swensson: I do recognize that as an Apache error, where Apache has not been started in a proper way (e.g. executed the apache binary, not using proper init script) | 13:07 |

| lain99 | nothing ocean | 13:11 |
| lain99 | oh | 13:12 |
| ocean | swensson: sorry, I'm not able to reproduce, but somehow Apache isn't started with the correct env variables. In my experience apachectl start should work without error | 13:15 |
| swensson | ocean: well it starts and works somewhat, but one of the vhosts are broken and solving this might fix it :D | 13:16 |

| semitones | I'm having trouble with grub on ubuntu, using a custom kernel. It works fine if I add it to 40_custom, but it *should* be detected by 10_os_prober, and I want to get it figured out. Any ideas? | 16:32 |
| duesen_ | Hi! I'm trying to create a custom German key mapping for a refurbished X220 - it's a US model, so it's lacking a key needed for the German layout (namely, the key between the Z and the left shift key). | 16:38 |
| duesen_ | The problem I'm trying to solve is that with the standard layout, there is no key that can produce "<" or ">" or "|". Which is rather annoying especially when coding or using the command line. | 16:38 |
| duesen_ | I found a solution to this problem at <https://thinkwiki.de/Tastatur> (in German), but it's based on /usr/share/kbd, which apparently is no longer used. I suppose it has been replaced by /usr/share/X11/xkb. | 16:38 |
| duesen_ | I have been trying to edit /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/de to fix the issue, but my changes appear to have no effect, even after reboot. | 16:38 |
| duesen_ | The laptop is running 18.04, but I also have one with 20.04 around for testing. | 16:38 |
| duesen_ | Any ideas how I can get this to work? I'd be greatful for any pointers! | 16:38 |
| CarlFK | semitones: I bet you can help me: where is the right place to set what kernel grub boots? | 16:38 |
| semitones | CarlFK, you have a few different options. What are you trying to set it to, and for how long? | 16:39 |
| semitones | !grub | 16:40 |
| ubottu | GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 16:40 |
| CarlFK | semitones: the most recent one doesn't find my nics, which I want to look into someday, but for now I just want to boot linux/boot/vmlinuz-3.13.0-164-generic | 16:40 |
| semitones | that second link has some documentation for how to set the defaults in /etc/default/grub | 16:40 |
| CarlFK | thanks | 16:40 |
| semitones | sure thing :) | 16:40 |
| CarlFK | etc/default/grub ah, no .cfg, which tab completed into .d, which isn't what I want. bingo. thanks | 16:41 |
| CarlFK | # Uncomment to disable graphical terminal (grub-pc only) GRUB_TERMINAL=console | 16:44 |
| CarlFK | but then the kernel does whatever it wants and goes into a graphic mode my monitor doesn't support... any idea the kernel param to say "stay in text mode. in fact, don't even change mode" | 16:45 |
| semitones | I wouldn't change that much of it CarlFK | 16:57 |
| semitones | just the part that specifies which one to boot by default | 16:57 |
| semitones | of course, if you want, change a whole bunch of stuff to learn what would happen; but it might be confusing; it certainly is to me | 16:57 |
| semitones | oh sorry I misread your question | 16:58 |
| CarlFK | semitones: no worries, that is good advice | 16:58 |
| semitones | You want to boot into a server-like environment with no GUI? | 16:58 |
| semitones | do you know about the different kernel modes you can boot into? Like nomodeset is one I think | 16:59 |
| CarlFK | semitones: I have that bit, but even ubuntu-server and the likes want to poke the video card which often messes me up | 16:59 |
| CarlFK | that = no gui. not sure about nomodeset | 16:59 |
| semitones | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBootParameters | 17:00 |
| semitones | or wait that might not be it | 17:01 |
| oerheks | reset your monitor to factory defaults; often helps | 17:02 |
| CarlFK | https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/focal/en/man7/bootparam.7.html shows "The line printer driver" but nothing about graphics | 17:02 |
| semitones | https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 | 17:03 |
| semitones | this talks about what I'm familiar with; I'd like to find them in the official docs to know if they're still current | 17:03 |
| CarlFK | I have a few things that need 'this', like a box has a janky monitor that does ... 1200x900 I think | 17:04 |
| semitones | nomodeset tells the kernel not to try and guess what video drivers to use - instead it will give you something very basic and awful, but hopefully working | 17:04 |
| CarlFK | yes, I want that. | 17:04 |
| semitones | working well enough that you can get in there and set it correctly | 17:04 |
| CarlFK | nomodeset might help booting in qemu when it says "640x480 graphics mode" | 17:06 |
| semitones | good luck! I'm gonna get back to work, but if you want to peek at some more grub problems: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1268026/how-can-i-get-update-grub-to-recognize-linux-surface-kernel (unanswered) | 17:09 |

| th34lch3m1st | hi all | 20:38 |
| N4-DELTA | hi | 20:38 |
| th34lch3m1st | 20.04 keyboard randomly stop writing as soon as I open something that I can write on (firefox url, terminal, gedit etcetc) | 20:39 |
| th34lch3m1st | The weird things are that, if I close and open firefox or gedit again it will type normally | 20:41 |
| th34lch3m1st | If I open a second tab in the terminal it type, no problem. But it not type in the first terminal tab. | 20:42 |
| N4-DELTA | thats a strange one | 20:42 |
| th34lch3m1st | How weird it is? | 20:42 |
| th34lch3m1st | This is the behavior at every start. | 20:42 |
| N4-DELTA | had frustration with my keyboard for ages, ended up using irqfixup, not ideal, but solved it for now | 20:45 |
| th34lch3m1st | N4-DELTA gnome that doesn't set "the focus" for the input method? (I'm hardly guessing here) | 20:46 |
| N4-DELTA | no, it solves some IRQ issues, which was the cause of my keyboard randomly working/breaking ... depends on the cause of the problem | 20:47 |
| th34lch3m1st | N4-DELTA last month I have used this keyboard for 30 days on 19.04, no problem whatsoever.... | 20:47 |
| th34lch3m1st | :) don't set the focus I was referring to my problem :) | 20:48 |
| th34lch3m1st | N4-DELTA I still have the older keyboard, I could try it, but I bet will behave the same | 20:50 |
| N4-DELTA | that would be my first step | 20:50 |
| N4-DELTA | quite a specific bug, dont have a solution for ya i'm afraid | 20:51 |
| th34lch3m1st | just a sec I try | 20:52 |
| th34lch3m1st | N4-DELTA nope. older keyboard does't work at all. I try to reboot | 20:54 |
| N4-DELTA | try adding irqfixup to boot options, might at least let you rule that out | 20:55 |
| th34lch3m1st | just a sec....login.... | 20:55 |
| N4-DELTA | since upgrading to 20.04, i've had constant headaches with USB and SPI lol | 20:55 |
| th34lch3m1st | older keyboard works on login...... | 20:56 |
| th34lch3m1st | ... and it works on all sofware....damn... | 20:57 |
| th34lch3m1st | the new keyboard is the problem? | 20:57 |
| th34lch3m1st | yep, it seems so | 20:58 |
| N4-DELTA | maybe try the new one on a different computer? | 20:58 |
| th34lch3m1st | now I try a live switch between the two | 20:58 |
| th34lch3m1st | also the new works now on every app | 20:59 |
| th34lch3m1st | seems a startup problem | 20:59 |
| N4-DELTA | are they USB keyboards? | 20:59 |
| th34lch3m1st | switching to the new keyboard if i boot with the old one works | 21:00 |
| th34lch3m1st | both | 21:00 |
| th34lch3m1st | both combo with moue | 21:00 |
| th34lch3m1st | *mouse | 21:00 |
| N4-DELTA | its weird tho, because the keyboard isnt failing completly | 21:00 |
| th34lch3m1st | that's my point | 21:01 |
| th34lch3m1st | it's a wm gdm things , I bet on that | 21:01 |
| th34lch3m1st | the new one is a hp pavilion 800 with its own mouse, but I don't use that mouse I use a vertical one | 21:02 |
| th34lch3m1st | two different wireless receiver | 21:02 |
| N4-DELTA | i wonder if ubuntu is treating it like a trackpad, and disabling the keyboard while the mouse is working... there is an option for that on most laptops | 21:03 |
| th34lch3m1st | desktop here | 21:03 |
| N4-DELTA | yeah, it might be confused because its a combination (if I read right..) | 21:04 |
| th34lch3m1st | it's a disabled keyboard I think, it type on the second terminal tab but not in the first | 21:04 |
| th34lch3m1st | *it's not a disabled keyboard things | 21:05 |
| th34lch3m1st | this is very very weird | 21:05 |
| th34lch3m1st | also, it not shut down property, never. It shutdown properly only if I click reboot. | 21:08 |
| th34lch3m1st | it hangs on black screen with ubuntu logo at the bottom , | 21:08 |
| th34lch3m1st | No disk activities | 21:09 |
| th34lch3m1st | I use to set acpi=off on 12.04 and 16.04 to boog ubuntu on this same machine | 21:10 |
| N4-DELTA | check your logs for errors during boot and shutdown - might give you a clue; worth trying boot option irqfixup too, incase its conflict issue, ..might be able to find that in logs too | 21:10 |
| th34lch3m1st | *to boot | 21:10 |
| N4-DELTA | fingers cross for ya! gotta run | 21:10 |

| oerheks | analogical, should work; locate Music | 21:36 |
| oerheks | standard folders have a capital letter | 21:36 |
| leftyfb | analogical: if locate didn't work, you're either not specifying the correct name or didn't update the database. If find isn't working you're either not specifying the correct name/regex or location to search in. Or it doesn't exist | 21:46 |
| oerheks | maybe he wants to search on NTFS? | 21:49 |
| analogical | leftyfb, I tried to search for a folder I know exist but it didn't find that even | 21:50 |
| analogical | why is something as trivial as searching for a folder this crazy complicated? | 21:51 |
| oerheks | so, it does not exist, else 'locate' would show it | 21:54 |
| oerheks | is this folder on NTFS or Ext4? | 21:54 |
| analogical | Ext4 | 21:55 |
| oerheks | then you should check, you said it is there, for capital letters. locate is case sensitive | 21:56 |

This delay helps to ensure that any lingering issues are resolved before people upgrade production systems. If you'd prefer to upgrade now, use sudo do-release-upgrade -d | 23:27 |
| avih | i don't want to install before. i'm fine waiting a week or 3 months. | 23:27 |
| oerheks | wish i had a list of things that is bug-ging the upgrade... | 23:27 |
| avih | so this statement at the link is wrong? "Freshly spun ISO aside it is from today that users who run Ubuntu 18.04 LTS ‘Bionic Beaver’ will see a notification asking if they want to upgrade to Ubuntu 20.04." | 23:28 |
| oerheks | yes. | 23:28 |
| avih | gotcha. much appreciated. | 23:29 |
| sarnold | well, "from today" could also mean "it didn't happen yesterday or before" | 23:29 |
| kxsl | already upgraded because sound wasn't working on my new motherboard. it went well, but guest resizing in virtualbox not working is the only major problem I have | 23:29 |
| avih | sarnold: sure, but i'm asking if it started or not. | 23:29 |
| avih | so, is there any specific place which shows the status or what's blocking it from being offered as LTS upgrade? | 23:32 |
| avih | iirc previous LTS releases were a week or two past the begining of july, but this one seems to take longer. | 23:33 |
| avih | s/releases/upgrade offers/ | 23:33 |
| sarnold | avih: not that I know of, no | 23:33 |
| avih | all right. i'll just keep tracking the 20.04 pages then (which i did, and it kept saying not yet... not yet... but i just checked now and it said that from a week ago it's a go! but alas.. ;) ) | 23:34 |
| oerheks | blame corona | 23:35 |
| avih | anyway, if anyone can at least remove the incorrect message, i think it would help avoid confusion. | 23:35 |
| avih | at this page https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2020/08/ubuntu-20-04-1-lts-release | 23:36 |
| oerheks | oh, omgubuntu is an user blog | 23:36 |
| oerheks | nothing official, they love to write about mint too | 23:36 |
| avih | oh... | 23:36 |
| sarnold | the author may have contact information somewhere on the site | 23:36 |
| oerheks | ask him to write a piece about this delay ;-) | 23:37 |
| avih | nono, my bad, sorry, i thought it's an official page. i'll try to find an official page which mentions anything. pardon the noise. | 23:38 |
| sarnold | oerheks: heh yes, an opportunity to write an article and maybe answer the question :) | 23:39 |
| shibboleth | which question? | 23:40 |
| oerheks | one catches flies with sugar | 23:40 |
| shibboleth | oerheks, and bees with honey | 23:40 |
| oerheks | avih, no problem, keep on reading! | 23:40 |
| SignalNewb | Wow. I never had to do all this weird registering like 15 years ago :p | 23:40 |
| oerheks | !yay | SignalNewb | 23:41 |
| ubottu | SignalNewb: Glad you made it! :-) | 23:41 |
| oerheks | shibboleth, about the delay of the upgrade path 20.04. | 23:41 |
| SignalNewb | I need some advice please. I just installed ubuntu dual booting with Windows 10. I had to add "nomodeset" to even see the boot up. It installed fine but video playback is horribly choppy. Nvidia drivers are installed. Any advise? | 23:43 |
| oerheks | what ubuntu version, what nvidia card and driver? | 23:44 |
| shibboleth | i never really got people who do major upgrades | 23:44 |
| avih | well, the release notes for 20.04.1 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FocalFossa/ReleaseNotes#Get_Ubuntu_20.04.1_LTS mention "The -d switch is necessary to upgrade from Ubuntu 18.04 LTS as upgrades have not yet been enabled" | 23:45 |
| shibboleth | all i know is that there is no pre-chewed way to then downgrade | 23:45 |
| avih | so i guess this answers the question of whether it's offered yet or not. | 23:45 |
| oerheks | how about stay ontopic, shibboleth, ubuntu support only | 23:45 |
| avih | that's the best i could find so far on ubuntu.com | 23:45 |
| shibboleth | and i've had it with fossa, will stay with bionic for a while | 23:45 |
| shibboleth | thanks for all the fish, get a clue | 23:46 |
| SignalNewb | Ubuntu 20.04.1, RTX 2080 Super, nvidia-driver-440 | 23:46 |
| avih | sarnold: status https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/focal-fossa-20-04-1-lts-point-release-status-tracking/17604 linked from https://askubuntu.com/a/1266903/368010 | 23:48 |
| sarnold | avih: aha! bummer though, that's still for .1, not flipping the switch :( | 23:50 |
| avih | well, i don't mind when they flip it, so as long as i know, i'm fine ;) | 23:52 |
| avih | like, i was thinking something is maybe blocking my upgrade, but as ong as it's simply not offered yet, that's fine. | 23:53 |
