[00:02] courrier: there's a bunch of translations on https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/focal/+lang/fr [00:04] i know dutch & french translations on flavours can be slow sometimes, needs the right ppl poke [00:06] sarnold: I can't find any blueman-* package listed there [00:07] 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? [00:08] 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] lotuspsychje: I can help for french! Is there any way we can get notified for specific languages? [00:08] 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] 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] 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 [00:09] courrier, that is a good idea. j'approve. [00:10] je l'approve. [00:10] j'approuve :) [00:10] j'accuse! [00:10] that's different [00:11] courrier: i would reccomend joining #ubuntu-translators and talk to gunnarJ when you filed your new !bug [00:11] tripleb, and, ... have yo tried "adjust for tv"? [00:11] Mon aéroglisseur est plein d’anguilles. [00:11] courrier: he's the translate wizard to point you in the right direction [00:12] Anybody running podman on ubuntu? I just did a apt upgrade a 'crun' seems to be gone [00:13] Synx_hm, podman as snap? [00:13] nope podman from the kubric deb repo [00:13] oh, no support for 3rd party repos. file a bug with them? [00:14] ya asked in the podman channel on freenode but its dead there figured id ask here [00:14] thank you [00:14] why would "id" and "id myusername" be different? https://paste.sr.ht/~petersanchez/f0be8dd6ded953c56b03fc8d349386b8cd4cabc5 [00:14] Synx_hm: check dpkg -L podman output, maybe you'll spot it somewhere else in the filesystem [00:15] thanks! [00:16] 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 [00:17] id is the list of system users, and id $USER is services running under your user? [00:17] or, where you are member of [00:17] oerheks: the man page says id, without username, uses the user that is running the command [00:17] pjs: It's worth an strace of each to see what's happening. [00:17] yes, the strace will explain it well :D [00:18] strace -ftttTvyyo /tmp/some.reasonable.filename -s 4096 id [00:18] hah, ok cool. Just thought I was missing something obvious [00:19] why does tripleb shoot questions, and never read back? [00:21] 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] courrier: thank you for filing bug #1891950 [00:21] bug 1891950 in blueman (Ubuntu) "Missing some French translations" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1891950 [00:21] lotuspsychje: ok! What timezone is gunnarJ? There's not much people in there rn [00:21] lotuspsychje: :) [00:21] courrier: european timezone, daytime [00:22] courrier: another idea might be poke some #ubuntu-mate or #ubuntu-fr users to help affect your bug to get confirmed [00:23] yes, let's see with #ubuntu-fr [00:23] btw, what does the underscore mean in the po file? [00:23] Like shown in the en/fr messages I circled in orange? [00:24] some strings are cut in half like Aid_e instead of Aide [00:24] not sure [00:26] OK [00:26] courrier: probably those turn into accelerator keys [00:27] alt+f to open File, then q to Quit [00:27] (I thought & was the usual marker for those, but there's no denying that _ is way easier to read.) [00:29] oh ok. So that would mean the letter follwing _ is the key? [00:30] courrier: yes [00:31] ok thx sarnold [00:31] 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] 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] 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 [00:32] I've tried echoing ${TEST} as well, still an empty string [00:33] How can i use zsys (zsysctl?) to revert just the system partitions to a snapshot but leave the user data current [00:33] meanwhile, if I do: export TEST='blah'. And then echo $TEST, it works fine [00:41] sarnold: ok thank you [00:42] how do you usually proceed to trnslate in launchpad? [00:42] e.g. I'm translating cups that has only 6 missings translations [00:42] f' me i cant even get into the grub menu (virtual machine on ESXi, with bios set to EFI option) [00:42] the word "dry-run" is there [00:42] there are many ways to translate it and I'd like to match the other occurences, if any [00:43] Do you open the full translation file and search for dry-run? ... [00:44] 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 [00:46] THis is what I did. The po file I receive has only one occurence of "dry-run"... very weird. [00:46] (the one that is not translated) [00:50] 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 [00:54] 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 [00:58] Scriptonaut, also compare "TEST=blah;echo $TEST" where a shell variable is used instead of an envar [01:04] 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) [01:05] tripleb, yes we did reply .. [01:05] not repeating, " autoarrange on the desktop OFF " seems like a mint issue [01:05] I didnt see the list text turn color. Great, let me look back [01:06] 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. [01:07] hexchat wont let me search the backscroll. (Maybe the answer didnt include my userid.) I will go bck. [01:08] HExchat has gross (not fine) backscroll control. Page Up Page Down is the only things that works [01:09] middle mouse scroll works here [01:09] courrier, je l'approuve. [01:10] oerheks, I tried adjust for tv but so far havent noticed any difference. [01:11] oerheks, you cnt say NEVER. That's mean and UNtrue as you know from our previous interactions. (Truth counts.) [01:13] 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] Hi, should I already be offered the 20.04.1 upgrade? I'm using 18.04 LTS [01:13] tripleb: okay it might be slight exaggeration but I know I've seen you not respond to replies many times [01:14] point is, you shoot questions, and look back after hours.. [01:14] .. and not just today [01:15] 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] "Je suis d'accord" is longer but sightly less formal [01:18] oerheks, you cnt say NEVER. That's mean and UNtrue as you know from our previous interactions. [01:18] I try to start Notepad++ abut it never comes up on my taskbar. [01:18] 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] tripleb: dude you need a new irc client in a bad way :) [01:20] OK I copied the backscroll and searched. THERE IS NO ANSWER that used tripleb. Saying I dont look is snotty and untrue. [01:20] That's how linux used to have a bad rep for people. It went away. Has it come back? [01:21] This is the most problamatic ubuntu I have ever run into. [01:22] tripleb: I've only got 10k lines of scrollback, so I can't share examples from further back, but I know I've seen cases of you asking questions multiple times and ignoring responses or follow-up questions [01:32] 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? [01:33] how would i go about having a rdesktop dual screen setup going? is it just as easy as -g 1920x2160 or is there a better way? === zbenjamin_ is now known as zbenjamin === feodoran is now known as Guest54611 === feodoran_ is now known as feodoran === rtudu is now known as rtud === William is now known as Conna === bocaneri is now known as Sauvin [06:04] ubuntu 20.04 has become slow in videos, screensaver, typing in any app. it wasnt like this whats happened? any ideas? [06:07] i have 8gb of memory and this issue just started [06:09] 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] but I'd really like to understand why the kernel images aren't being found, and hopefully submit a patch to fix it. [06:22] whos familar with touch screen keyboard aspects of ubuntu, I need to see if It's possible to edit the touch screen keyboard [06:26] the lights are on but no one home :P [06:44] 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) [07:01] i've added chromium-browser.desktop to my favorites before the ~/snap folder got created. [07:01] 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] ~/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 [07:03] ld50: check in the current bugs perhaps if you find something similar: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bugs?field.tag=snap [07:04] ld50: why delete a snap folder in a operating system that uses snaps and has a snap store for apps? [07:06] 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] cable with 84C lets say? [07:06] 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] which it does not [07:06] it breaks the window tracking [07:07] lotuspsychje: will do [07:07] !hardware | Intelo [07:07] Intelo: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport - To help debugging and improving hardware detection, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingHardwareDetection [07:07] thanks [08:18] hullo, does anyone know how to conigure a smart card reader (w/ smart card) for sudo and login ?

[09:35] 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] in nvidia-settings - i can change the resolution - but ubuntu system / display shows 4k at any time [09:36] grobkorn: wich driver version is active? [09:36] Am I missing something, is https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1864188 really *still* not fixed ?

[09:37] lotuspsychje: nvidia metapackage driver 4-18-server [09:38] grobkorn: oh, youre on a server? [09:38] 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] lotuspsychje: nope... funny - now i see - what the failure might be *lol [09:39] Better question: is 5.3.0-40 really still the latest kernel build for 19.10 ?

I did not frankendebian this one (for once in my life) [09:41] lotuspsychje: nvidia-smi tells me driver version 440.100 [09:41] gtristan: well we dont reccomend upgrading from eol versions, due to !usn security flaws [09:41] grobkorn: ok, try to switch a driver version lets say to 435 as a test, see if you can reproduce your issue [09:42] 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] And thats why it is eol so quickly ? This might explain why I chose 19.08 [09:42] lotuspsychje thanks... after change that in system settings - should i reboot?

I am a bit confused, anyway I want to ask a question on cloning an ubuntu laptop [10:50] is this the right place? [10:53] nickgru: unless you've got some advanced alien technology I don't know about there's no such thing as cloning a laptop [10:54] i think they mean cloning the data on it [10:54] so... cloning a disk [10:54] that would be imaging the disk [10:54] yep, you can use a live usb/cd for that [10:55] 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] if there are the same laptop model should be no problem [10:56] total overkill [10:56] more easy is to copy the home folder except the config files [10:57] the home folder contains nothing that is necessary to the script. [10:57] seriously, just sort out the scripts/libraries [10:57] I tried everything I gound online [10:57] found [10:57] can I run your scripts? [10:58] sure it's available online but you need to install some other things as well. it's called autogrow @ autogrow.ucds.edu [10:59] 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] http://autogrow.ucds.edu/ gives me server not found [11:00] sorry https://autogrow.ucsd.edu/ [11:02] are you using Ubuntu 12.10? [11:02] 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] ubuntu20.04 [11:03] and python3 [11:03] nickgru: https://git.durrantlab.pitt.edu/jdurrant/autogrow4 [11:06] 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] if you just want to use the software, I suggest you build and run it in docker using their dockerfile [11:08] not a good solution, I would loose the multithreading [11:09] what makes you think that? === CyberNekroRezus is now known as CyberNekroMaoMet [11:16] the descriptions says that docker is made for windows wehere there is incompatibility with the multithreading [11:19] you misunderstand. It says running autogrow in Windows without a container is incompatible with their multi-threading approach [11:21] just cd into that docker directory and run `sudo docker build -t autogrow .` [11:22] any news on upgrade using do-release-upgrade? [11:28] eeos, you mean to 20.04.1? I haven't seen anything here or on omgubunut.co.uk yet.(although i am an outsider myself). [11:30] coconut: yes, 20.04.1 was supposed to be when the do-release-upgrade was going to be activated [11:31] eeos, it's always later. I can't say when it will this time. :( [11:46] ok thanks I will try and come back in case it doesn't work. [11:57] Is there an irc channel where i can discuss some things concerning gtk - themeing ? === westor{off} is now known as westor [12:06] 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] I can browse files on that system just fine using Caja (Nautilus) but I would like to do it using Midnight Commander instead. The caveat is that I am not sure how to find the relevant mount point in my local filesystem. Can you please help me out? Thanks. [12:11] @dsuch have you tried to list all the mount points? [12:13] MaxLDC: Hi, yes, mount | wc -l returns 34 lines but I cannot really find anything to the point there. Unless it has a name I cannot comprehend. [12:13] MaxLDC: But there is nothing really standoing out like /media/ or /mnt/ [12:14] dsuch: have you tried just providing the hostname/IP and username only? [12:14] and with findmnt -l [12:14] dsuch: and then navigate manually after you authenticate/login [12:14] Aah, findmnt it was. [12:15] Now I can see fuse and gvfsd, thank you good people. [12:15] Out of curiosity, is findmnt a relatively new tool? [12:16] As in, introduced in the last 5-10 years? [12:22] I am using a gtk theme which works great, however the checkbox-checked and menu-radio-checked buttons are displayed red as seen here: https://imgur.com/a/uKvqGA8 even though the assets are provided - is there some place i have to check in the css files where this gets specified or what could be the issue ? [12:42] dsuch: no idea [12:50] Hi all [12:59] Hello [12:59] Does Locale settings have to do with UI language ? [13:00] Because I do have English set in plasma, after I think I set Locale (units, date, standards) to my own, also the lanugage of program names and GUI items changed [13:03] Hey guys, seems like something broke during the update/upgrade rutine, I now get [core:warn] [pid 3429] AH00111: Config variable ${INSTALL_DIR} is not defined. Do anyone know how to solve this? [13:04] 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 [13:07] 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) [13:11] lain99: try apt search ^automake [13:11] ocean: I normally run systemctl start/stop apache2, just tested with /etc/init.d/apache2 but did no change what so ever [13:11] nothing ocean [13:12] oh [13:15] 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 [13:16] ocean: well it starts and works somewhat, but one of the vhosts are broken and solving this might fix it :D [13:18] still doesnt have all the versions === BrianG61UK_ is now known as BrianG61UK [13:33] So the last time, in 19.10, when I modified grub on an installed ubuntu, the proper updating automation changed quite a few things to the boot entries [13:34] it also automatically scanned for all HDDs and added Win10 to the boot option and forced the boot menu to show every time I would turn on the PC (which is a thing I would want sometimes, just not in this case) [13:35] All I want is to remove the "quiet splash" from the primary default boot behavior, I do not have Win10 or any other OS connected at this time, made sure that have it disconnected, I don't do dual boot I always switch sata devices, I just had it connected by accident the las time === HayashiEsme6 is now known as HayashiEsme === banisterfiend_ is now known as banisterfiend [14:04] can somebody tell me what's wrong if i get Automatically disabled Acquire::http::Pipeline-Depth due to incorrect response from server/proxy. (man 5 apt.conf) in my docker build for an ubuntu image? [14:13] I'm trying to build a package using: dpkg-buildpackage -b -uc and I keep getting https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/wP8PNf2rX2/ [14:13] How do I tell it to link pthreads properly? === disillusion- is now known as disillusion [15:32] ExtraSteve: can you export DEB_LDFLAGS_MAINT_APPEND = -Wl,-pthread before calling dpkg-buildpackage ? === banisterfiend_ is now known as banisterfiend [15:40] pavlos: trying that now [15:46] pavlos: same error [15:54] I have 2 nics: 02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 02) [15:54] 03:01.0 Ethernet controller: 3Com Corporation 3c905 100BaseTX [Boomerang] [15:54] 3.13.0-164-generic - both work fine [15:55] when I apt update/upgrade, neither showed up under ip a [15:56] grub.cfg shows 3.13.0-170 [15:57] that box is my gateway, so booting into that makes it hard to google. [15:57] did someone decide "these nics are too old, lets not take up space" and remove the kernel modules? [16:05] which package has the pack command? === banisterfiend_ is now known as banisterfiend [16:14] I found it https://buildpacks.io/docs/install-pack/ [16:32] 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? [16:38] 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] 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] I found a solution to this problem at (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] 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] The laptop is running 18.04, but I also have one with 20.04 around for testing. [16:38] Any ideas how I can get this to work? I'd be greatful for any pointers! [16:38] semitones: I bet you can help me: where is the right place to set what kernel grub boots? [16:39] CarlFK, you have a few different options. What are you trying to set it to, and for how long? [16:40] !grub [16:40] 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] 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] that second link has some documentation for how to set the defaults in /etc/default/grub [16:40] thanks [16:40] sure thing :) [16:41] etc/default/grub ah, no .cfg, which tab completed into .d, which isn't what I want. bingo. thanks [16:44] # Uncomment to disable graphical terminal (grub-pc only) GRUB_TERMINAL=console [16:45] 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" [16:57] I wouldn't change that much of it CarlFK [16:57] just the part that specifies which one to boot by default [16:57] 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 [16:58] oh sorry I misread your question [16:58] semitones: no worries, that is good advice [16:58] You want to boot into a server-like environment with no GUI? [16:59] do you know about the different kernel modes you can boot into? Like nomodeset is one I think [16:59] 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] that = no gui. not sure about nomodeset [17:00] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBootParameters [17:01] or wait that might not be it [17:02] reset your monitor to factory defaults; often helps [17:02] https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/focal/en/man7/bootparam.7.html shows "The line printer driver" but nothing about graphics [17:03] https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 [17:03] 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 [17:04] I have a few things that need 'this', like a box has a janky monitor that does ... 1200x900 I think [17:04] 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] yes, I want that. [17:04] working well enough that you can get in there and set it correctly [17:06] nomodeset might help booting in qemu when it says "640x480 graphics mode" [17:09] good luck!

[20:37] tried label=, but it didnt seem to work [20:38] hi all [20:38] hi [20:39] 20.04 keyboard randomly stop writing as soon as I open something that I can write on (firefox url, terminal, gedit etcetc) [20:41] The weird things are that, if I close and open firefox or gedit again it will type normally [20:42] If I open a second tab in the terminal it type, no problem. But it not type in the first terminal tab. [20:42] thats a strange one [20:42] How weird it is? [20:42] This is the behavior at every start. [20:45] had frustration with my keyboard for ages, ended up using irqfixup, not ideal, but solved it for now [20:46] N4-DELTA gnome that doesn't set "the focus" for the input method? (I'm hardly guessing here) [20:47] 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] N4-DELTA last month I have used this keyboard for 30 days on 19.04, no problem whatsoever.... [20:48] :) don't set the focus I was referring to my problem :) [20:50] N4-DELTA I still have the older keyboard, I could try it, but I bet will behave the same [20:50] that would be my first step [20:51] quite a specific bug, dont have a solution for ya i'm afraid [20:52] just a sec I try [20:54] N4-DELTA nope. older keyboard does't work at all. I try to reboot [20:55] try adding irqfixup to boot options, might at least let you rule that out [20:55] just a sec....login.... [20:55] since upgrading to 20.04, i've had constant headaches with USB and SPI lol [20:56] older keyboard works on login...... [20:57] ... and it works on all sofware....damn... [20:57] the new keyboard is the problem? [20:58] yep, it seems so [20:58] maybe try the new one on a different computer? [20:58] now I try a live switch between the two [20:59] also the new works now on every app [20:59] seems a startup problem [20:59] are they USB keyboards? [21:00] switching to the new keyboard if i boot with the old one works [21:00] both [21:00] both combo with moue [21:00] *mouse [21:00] its weird tho, because the keyboard isnt failing completly [21:01] that's my point [21:01] it's a wm gdm things , I bet on that [21:02] 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] two different wireless receiver [21:03] 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] desktop here [21:04] yeah, it might be confused because its a combination (if I read right..) [21:04] it's a disabled keyboard I think, it type on the second terminal tab but not in the first [21:05] *it's not a disabled keyboard things [21:05] this is very very weird [21:08] also, it not shut down property, never. It shutdown properly only if I click reboot. [21:08] it hangs on black screen with ubuntu logo at the bottom , [21:09] No disk activities [21:10] I use to set acpi=off on 12.04 and 16.04 to boog ubuntu on this same machine [21:10] 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] *to boot [21:10]
