[00:09] <_Sym_> I just noticed that every time I build an android project on ubuntu 18.04, the java process remains running in background taking up a lot of memory. I have to manually kill the java process after the build is finished. Is that normal? [00:11] <_Sym_> do I want to run gradlew as a daemon? [00:43] my time with ubuntu will soon be coming to an end i think [00:43] even on 20.04 some of the -dev packages i need are just too old === benfrancis4 is now known as benfrancis [01:04] truexfan81, thats why they use snaps now [01:04] like many in the community i have trust issues when it comes to snaps [01:04] if you think ubuntu packages are old, try debians :p [01:05] i even removed snapd and did an apt-mark hold on it [01:05] truexfan81, sounds like u wont be satisfied w anything but Gentoo === zbenjamin_ is now known as zbenjamin [01:06] you need to go has fun with the Gentoo! [01:06] actually i'm leaning toward fedora [01:06] fedora... too old!!!

I can't download any extensions.. [02:27] that looks down to me [02:27] is there a mirror for gnome extensions?

Trying to setup a split vpn and having trouble finding information on how to do it without using iptables directly.

You need to upgrade to an LTS version like 20.04 [03:51] upgrading from an eol version is risky [03:52] you really dont want to run a superceded os [03:52] rjwiii: OK [03:52] clean install highly reccomended [03:52] I will just download new one [03:52] Al_nz1: non-LTS versions are only supported for a short time ... 6-8 months, I believe ... [03:52] its a test VM anyway [03:52] fair enough [03:52] Al_nz1: LTS versions are supported for 5 years [03:53] ta [03:53] yw ... a [03:54] hi, I've been trying to figure out why named keeps spending about 3% of CPU. also, recently libisc segfaulted and I had to restart bind. I've no idea where to start looking for potential problems (I didn't see anything interesting in the logs re: bind, and could not find a way to have bind report what it's doing). where should I look? === benfrancis6 is now known as benfrancis [04:47] Hi all, I connected to remote machine via SSH and it has the Ubuntu 16.04 server image. Is it possible to install window manager? If so what's the command? [05:16] sub526, there are many window managers, eg. icewm (https://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/icewm) but it'll depend what WM you want [05:26] guiverc: I’m looking for a window manager in X that will listen for headset keypresses(Volume_up & Volume_down) and change volume [05:28] *USB headset [05:32] sub526: xorg + xbindkeys? === bettencb1 is now known as bettencb [05:32] EriC^: yes [05:32] sub526: install any ubuntu desktop, ubuntu-desktop xubuntu-desktop etc package it should install everyhting [05:35] Al_nz1: non-LTS versions are only supported for a short time ... 6-8 months, I believe ... <- Nope, 9 months :) LTS versions are supported for 5 years and with ESM even 10 years. All other official Ubuntu LTS flavors (xubuntu, Ubuntu studio, ubuntu mate, lubuntu, kubuntu, ubuntu budgie etc.) are just supported for 3 years. === bettencb1 is now known as bettencb [05:55] I'm having an issue where I'm unable to boot a luks encrypted system, because the generated /cryptsetup/cryptroot file is not including the right entry for my encrypted partition [05:56] it's omitting the "luks" option at the end === Loshki_ is now known as Loshki [06:37] Hello all.

If you do them, your timezone is reset to Etc/UTC. Does anyone know the "correct" way? [06:57] so looking at it further, it looks like the initramfs process itself is creating the bad crypttab file, because the file on the initramfs archive itself is fine [06:57] i dont know why or where this is happening though [06:58] to make matters worse, when i do manage to manually unlock and boot the volume, X doesn't start [06:58] and I don't see any errors in the log === peter-bittner1 is now known as peter-bittner [09:14] hello, I get error 500 on https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=wireguard [09:14] oh it works again === kathe-ding is now known as kding [10:41] hwo do i convert from legacy networking to netplan? [11:46] Hi all [11:48] zamba: basically you need to create a new file in /etc/netplan/*.yaml which describes your network setup and have netplan installed. Afterwards you could test it via 'netplan test' and if everything works remove legacy networking (probably ifupdown?). See https://netplan.io/reference [11:48] 'netplan try' that is [11:52] slyon: yeah, i figured it out :) [11:52] thanks! === the_ant1 is now known as the_ant [12:08] yw [12:55] How could I set tty1 as the default on startup? I'm using startx instead of LightDM now, but after the plymouth loading screen, it shows tty7, which doesn't have anything in it (it's a black screen with the motherboard logo). Switching to ttyt or any other gives me the login prompt, which is what I expect to see after the system loads. [12:58] crimson_king: startx is not really the way to go anymore [12:58] !tty | crimson_king [12:58] crimson_king: To get to the TTY terminals 3-6, use the keystroke Ctrl + Alt + F3-F6 respectively. Ctrl-Alt-F2 or Ctrl-Alt-F1 will get you back to your graphical login (Ctrl-Alt-F7 on 16.04). To change TTY resolution, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ChangeTTYResolution [12:59] any ideas what would cause ffmpeg to fail when running from script: but work under cli : error: "Unknown encoder 'libx264'" https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/CXNF2cbJyW/ [12:59] calling it from plex [12:59] It works fine if I call it manually [12:59] PATH or such? [12:59] I specified the path of the binary [12:59] /usr/bin/ffmpeg [13:00] written directly [13:00] but yeah can't find libx264, so I wonder if that needs a path? [13:00] lotuspsychje, how else would you start Xfce with rootless Xorg then? [13:00] include echo $PATH and compare [13:00] look at: ldd $(which ffmpeg) [13:00] then you see what is loaded from where [13:01] crimson_king: are you on a desktop or server? [13:01] GDM would be too heavy for this laptop [13:01] desktop [13:01] crimson_king: xubuntu-desktop [13:02] hmm and what is -disable-libx264 ? [13:02] does that binary even support that lib? [13:03] btw there is also #ffmpeg [13:03] lotuspsychje, Only gdm and xinit can start Xorg rootless. That's why I dropped LightDM. I just wanted to start at tty1, not tty7. [13:05] Something is taking me to tty7 right after boot, and tty7 is just a black/blank screen. All I did was disable LightDM through systemd. [13:06] Maybe there's something else I must disable. Is it plymouth? There are many plymouth services, I don't know which one to disable. [13:21] Hi, I am having issue with Ubuntu, every time I am trying to install something,be it command line (apt-get install) or Ubuntu software Center, I am getting this error message, https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/2wRMGty9wn/ I am in my other machine right now because Ubuntu machine wont even allow me to install IRC client, for same reason as indicated in that link, can anyone help please ... [13:49] on gnome, how come i can move program windows partially offscreen on the bottom, left/right edges of screen but not the top. is there any way to enable that [13:50] is there any way i can make program windows be always on top conditionally? so, if window size is not maximized, then make it always on top, for any new program [13:50] https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/mRKKzyF2JN/ <<< anyone know how to fix ? This is in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nvidia-cuda.txt not /etc/apt/sources.list Can't find a 3rd party fix for this I tried adding sudo apt-get install -y cuda-toolkit-11-0 --allow-unauthenticated this is under wsl2 for windows . I guess it could be a proxy issue but I don't think that is fixable because the subsystem is acting as a proxy and I cant do anyth [13:50] it I think its just the way it works, but I could be totally wrong!!!!

[14:20] Do I use apt install to update a deb package to a newer version? === the_ant1 is now known as the_ant [14:36] shinobi: you have lists of what the latest packages and versions are locally, but it gets outdated, so you need to do an `apt update` first to update those records. [14:37] assuming you are on ubuntu it will guide you, 'apt list --upgradable' [14:37] sudo apt update && sudo apt -y dist-upgrade && sudo apt -y autoremove [14:38] that will just update everything on an ubuntu box [14:39] `apt -h` and `man apt` are good places to look and see what options you have [15:03] Hi! can someone check and verify there is something wrong with this gpg key? https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/ubuntu2004/x86_64/ [15:04] https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/ubuntu2004/x86_64/Release.gpg [15:08] https://pastebin.pl/view/2ff2c1c9 [15:08] no worky , no way [15:10] transhumanist, what did you put in sources.list?

[15:12] https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/zhYMBK7GhX/ [15:12] https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/GZYcfSQTZh/ [15:13] Yesterday I installed some updates, added an alternate repo and installed some software to try to get my laptop to be brighter, then uninstalled that software. Now everything on my laptop seems to take many seconds longer. Pings are OK but opening software -- the calculator for instance took 20 seconds the first time, and now 2 to 3 seconds to open [15:13] where it used to be nearly instant. But I can't think what might be causingn it. Nothing obvious in `top` other than that the programs that are slow seem to be using up a lot of processor. [15:13] sudo apt-key adv --fetch-keys << cant remember if I originally did this but I am using what is shown now [15:13] also that is for 18.04 not for 20.04 [15:14] they have a 20.04 repository [15:14] Any thoughts about what I might have done? [15:14] transhumanist, the 404 Not Found is not a key problem [15:14] For instance, changing a channel in slack is taking 45 seconds or more... should be a simple network request.

[15:30] Any thoughts about what I should do about this slowness? I realize I also installed codecs for some youtube videos... I hope that wasn't it. [15:36] meganv1999, "added an alternate repo" .. what was this? [15:37] and yes, youtube needs no codec anymore, html5 works fine, and flash is dead. [15:37] Sorry, an alternate apt source. [15:37] yes? [15:37] though as I said, I uninstalled the software that I installed from it. [15:38] little vague, not even mentioning what ubuntu version [15:38] https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/3ZFSZ3x962/ I can't seem to find much about "Lost carrier" or "DHCP lease lost" as it pertains to wifi. Anyone seen this? We didn't see this with 16.04 but do on 18.04. I have ipv6 disabled. power management disabled. Using multiple wifi chipsets/drivers. This is on Ubuntu server using systemd and wpa_supplicant. This happens when trying to switch wireless AP's. wifi drops completely, reconnects and requests DHCP [15:38] again. This can take from 1-4 seconds which is very bad. [15:39] I'm on 18.04 [15:39] so, i just thought of something. My problems installing Ubuntu-20.04 on WSL2 all derive from the problem that the instruction pages are all over the place and many are outdated. It would be cool to have google or cloudflare allow publication of a date time stamp on such instructions (last updated and to display in a different color or something the updates to the instructional pages) I wonder if this is even possible. I know clo [15:39] s supposedly going to start working with the waybackmachine . Anyone know? Or better off anyone know where to ask or propose such a question? [15:39] oerkeks: Sorry 18.04. Thanks for the nudge. :) [15:39] !ot | transhumanist [15:39] transhumanist: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please register with NickServ (see /msg ubottu !register) and use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [15:40] well, ok but it has to do with the welfare of ubuntu too, but thanks [15:40] transhumanist: it is not an ubuntu support question. [15:41] no problem [15:41] With respect to codecs... i was on FF and went to youtube. It said the right codec wasn't installed but "click here for common issues." So I clicked and it said "You have the latest player everything is great!" [15:42] ubuntu-desktop on wsl2?? [15:42] interesting.. but not for this channel. [15:42] sure. Was just trying to provide context about why I did that. [15:43] oerheks: desktop. Though I'm not sure what WSL2 is. Will google. [15:43] meganv1999, youtube.com does not give that question about codex anymore, it must have been an other video site. [15:43] and a scam, probably. [15:43] meganv1999: WSL isn't relevant to your issue [15:44] The "codec" package I installed was "ubuntu-restricted-extras" [15:44] Should I uninstall? [15:45] you told it like you reacted on the codec install question in your browser.. no, restricted extras is oke. [15:45] the package from the added apt source was brightness-controller from ppa:apandada1 [15:46] but it has been removed. [15:46] So if restricted-extras is ok, and brightness-controller was removed, that leaves the updates I guess. Le sigh. [15:46] I was hoping to avoid rolling those back, seems painful. [15:47] checking that ppa, it gives an 2019 version for bionic/18.04 .. the github gives newer version. https://github.com/lordamit/Brightness [15:48] not sure how removal of that package slows down your machine. [15:48] I installed it yesterday, discovered it wasn't helping, and removed it. [15:49] Probably no effect, but it's the things you don't mention that cause the most confusion with troubleshooting. :P or can be. [15:49] Loading a page on github right now... I'm at 120 seconds and counting. [15:51] not using ubuntu but now so do not know, is Ubuntu using NetworkManager by default or is it systemd-networkd or something else? [15:52] Interesting thing: google chrome works quickly. So Firefox and Slack are affected but not Chrome? [15:55] meganv1999, remove the ~/.mozilla folder in your /home/ and restart firefox? [15:55] catbehemoth, desktop uses networkmanager, server systemd / netplan [15:58] oerheks: thanks for the info off to read up on netplan [16:02] hi! [16:12] oerheks: desktop also uses systemd/netplan, it just uses NM as the renderer [16:14] leftyfb, correct, but it would make the answer more difficult to understand [16:15] no idea about your wifi drop Q .. [16:15] yeah, that's blowing my mind [16:16] Installing "libnginx-mod-http-lua" on ubuntu 18.04 gives me "PANIC: unprotected error in call to Lua API (attempt to index a nil value)" [16:16] and fails [16:17] it fails on nginx reload, my nginx version is from the normal repo === jess is now known as j === the_ant1 is now known as the_ant [16:47] hello! I'm trying to build a 4 screen setup using 2 vgas. VGAs are identical. I've first installed one and detected the first two displays correctly, then I've added the second vga. It is listed correctly in lspci, but ubuntu options sees only the two displays from the first vga [16:47] am I missing something? [16:49] so, I have to identical laptops, both running 20.04.1, and with otherwise identical configurations; one of them the built in mic is inaudible, even at 100% input, the other is completely normal [16:52] I've temporarily worked around by using pavucontrol to boost the quiet one up to like +10db [16:53] but that feels like a hack [16:54] actually it is the display manager in ubuntu settings that doesn't get the screen. The nvidia-settings program detects both vgas and all monitors [16:55] but the ones attached to the second card stays just off with "no-signal" [17:01] Hi everyone, trying to have a script automatically set the screen resolution if it's not correctly set. The script works fine if I run it as the user or root, but when I put it in cron it doesn't work (screen flashes, but resolution doesn't actually change). I've googled a bit about this and the things they mention I already seem to be doing. Would [17:01] anyone be willing to take a look at the script, please? [17:04] strixdio: what command are you using? xrandr? add --display :0 [17:05] xrandr --output DisplayPort-0 --mode 1920x1080 --pos 0x0 [17:06] I have tried using --display :0 before, will try again though. [17:06] Does Ubuntu support power and video out over thunderbolt/usb-c ? [17:07] strixdio: you might have to put them into /etc/X11/Xsession.d/, although i'm not sure if that's the case on newer releases [17:07] instead of crontab [17:07] hmm [17:07] I'm not familiar with that. [17:10] strixdio: you may have to write a small script and add it in Startup applications [17:10] like a systemd script? [17:12] strixdio: no, just myres.sh add the xrandr line in there. save exit make it exec. Go to startup apps, add, point to the location of script [17:14] I don't think this has a "startup apps" [17:14] and I need it to continually run anyway, not just on startup. [17:14] strixdio: you're not on ubuntu? [17:14] it is ubuntu [17:15] It's just a custom version for a HP thin client. dumbed down if you will.

[17:25] strixdio, not sure makes sense a script that set resolution continually , but ok [17:28] ioria it checks if the resolution has changed and only changes it back if needed. This is done because people change sources on the 2ndary display and it messes up the resolution when they switch back [17:30] strixdio, i see ; so you should have a daemon that check continually the resolution value, and if altered, restore it to default [17:30] Well, this daemon, how does it differ from running a cron job? [17:31] meaning how does that differ from the script I already have? [17:32] strixdio, what's the script ? the xrandr command above? [17:32] It's actually a lot longer, but yeah that's the "meat" of it that's not working. [17:33] the screen flashes but doesn't change resolution. [17:33] When I run it manually, it works fine. [17:37] strixdio, try to set the display in crontab https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto#GUI_Applications [17:44] I'd say that ubuntu desktop is not ready for a multi-monitor environment [17:45] so how would one install like Virtual Machine manager in ubuntu for running VMs [17:46] Southern_Gentlem: look at libvirt-bin or virtualbox or lxd(no GUI) [17:46] i like Gnome Boxes [17:47] leftyfb, why when the virtualization is easy in linux [17:47] Southern_Gentlem: https://virt-manager.org/ === the_ant1 is now known as the_ant [17:47] Habbie, myself i have Gnome Boxes [17:48] Southern_Gentlem: why what? You asked how to install a VM manager. I gave you 3 options. Without trying any of them you're saying none of them are easy? [17:48] the rant is growing in me, xorg log displays no errors, but gdm is not even starting up now. Multi-monitor setup with ubuntu desktop is really broken [17:49] same setup with windows ... 35 seconds, 25 to customize refresh rate [17:49] giaco: it's not a ubuntu desktop... It's Gnome 3 [17:49] leftyfb, actually i asked about a certain one [17:49] https://linuxize.com/post/how-to-install-kvm-on-ubuntu-20-04/ [17:50] giaco what video card [17:51] Southern_Gentlem: dual VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GF108 [GeForce GT 630] (rev a1) [17:51] Southern_Gentlem: so you asked how to install a package on ubuntu where you already had the package name and instructions on how to do it? [17:51] i asked then googled [17:52] giaco, and have you installed the nvidia drivers [17:52] there is also channel #virt [17:52] Southern_Gentlem: yes [17:52] pavlos, thanks [17:52] problem is multi-monitor setup. Nvidia drivers (nvidia-settings) detects both cards and all 4 monitors, and it let's me configure what I want and generate a xorg.conf file [17:53] giaco, thats the issue gnome uses wayland [17:53] so boot into X instead of wayland that would work [17:53] Southern_Gentlem: not on ubuntu [17:54] if I generate a non-xinerama xorg.conf, desktop starts only of first two screen. If I generate a xinerama xorg.conf, all I see is a mouse pointer on 4 black screens on boot [17:54] Southern_Gentlem: Ubuntu uses X by default [17:54] Southern_Gentlem: ubuntu 20.04 uses X [17:55] my pid 2245 is Xorg [17:55] and gnome-x-session is 2242 [17:56] giaco, 2 videocards, maybe your bios gives an option to use both [17:56] Southern_Gentlem: Ubuntu isn't like Fedora ;) [17:56] i know [17:57] i'm surprised to see you here by the way :) [17:57] i usually hang out in here as well [17:57] very seldom do i post [17:58] yes, we love fedora questions here , about vms [17:58] giaco, do you have nvidia-config [17:58] i hope the 2nd card is powered properly .. [18:00] oerheks: is not a bios problem, is not a video driver problem, is a gnome problem. I now have the xorg-conf generated by nvidia-settings with xinerama mode activated (that would generate a unique DISPLAY=:0 large 1920x4) and it actually works, because once reboot X starts and I have a mouse cursor on black screen that goes correctly on all 4 screens crossing borders. Point is that gdm is not [18:00] showing anything and it stops at that cursors on black screens [18:01] but systemctl status gdm shows is running correctly [18:02] I just need to run 4 fullscreen web-pages, I actually don't care about gnome, I would replace it completely if that would solve the problem. Any hint? [18:03] point is that if I export DISPLAY=:0 at terminal and run anything like xcalc, it says it launches correctly but it doesn't show anything on screen [18:04] DISPLAY=:0.1 = adapter 1, display 0 ... [18:04] or around, whatever.. [18:05] weird black screens with cursor could be fixed with nomodeset? [18:05] !nomodeset [18:05] Systems with certain graphics chipsets may not boot properly out of the box. "Temporarily Add a Kernel Boot Parameter for Testing" as discussed at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBootParameters to add the "nomodeset" parameter there. [18:06] ubottu: kernel is booting correctly, xorg is running correcty (mouse moves over all screens) [18:08] if I shut down gdm (systemctl stop gdm), start $ sudo Xorg manually, DISPLAY=:0 xcalc it works [18:10] I've been talking to a bot. My day might be over [18:14] sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm3 return $! = 0 but outputs nothing [18:15] You created an xorg.conf, disable that first? [18:16] oerheks: for what? [18:16] for that 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm3" [18:17] xorg.conf works perfectly. Screens coordinates are correct, input devices are mapped correctly, mouse crosses borders, resolution and refresh rates matches. That xorg.conf generated by nvidia-settings is just perfect [18:17] oh, it is perfect, so you have no issue? [18:17] I'm having issues with gdm/gnome, not xorg [18:18] guess what, just installed lightdm and it worked out of the box [18:20] a bug on gdm for non-trivial multi-head setup should be opened [18:27] no, it is not the gdm, it is gnome. I though it was gdm as I was using autologin [18:28] but lightdm does the same. It asks for passwords correctly spanning all 4 screens, then mouse on 4 black screens === EuphOria is now known as Euph0ria === Euph0ria is now known as aBANdONEd === Tabstar is now known as Tabmow [20:05] hola, free secure encrypted connection: https://pastebin.com/rGcZXpie [20:46] I installed Ubuntu onto an Intel compute stick,,and attached compute stick to a lapdock computer called nexdock 1st gen. [20:47] It connect to keyboard and touchpad through bluetooth. I was able to pair it, but I can't get it to type anything ot the pointer to work.? [20:48] I updated it thinking it might be a driver issue,but that yealded nothing as well. I am currently just using the dispay with a wired keyboard and mouse but it seems prtetty ugly and stupid. [20:49] Does anyone have any idea what might be wrong? Is there a ppa with some drivers for nexdock? [20:51] Edit: Compute Stick connects to nexdock keyboard and touchpad bia bluetooth. The display connects through hdmi, and that is working perfectly. [20:55] Well I guess, I'll pin this tab, and see if anyone comes along.. Of coarse you can pm me. [21:04] BTW, I installed Budgie 18.04 64bit on a Cherry Trail Compute stick with 2gb of Ram, and a 32bit bios, os it is picky about the oses it allows..I consider this a more or less god install. Just need my bluetooth keyboard and touchpad working. [21:05] a good install. This old clicky keyboard is hit and miss. === guuurkan_ is now known as guuurkan [21:24] was rsync -a copying a dir structure, copy incomplete, i deleted some of the source, and tried to resume rsync quit without error code after processing only a small amount [21:24] maakes no sense, rsync shouldnt care if there are unexpected diretories present in the destination should it ? [21:41] I have purchased this bluetooth headset >> https://www.samsung.com/in/support/model/EO-BG920BWEBUS/ .....Problem is I am hearing only MONO ...I want STEREO. How to do that ? [21:54] What channel would be appropriate to help me diagnose networking issues after a system update? [21:54] mustmodify_: This one if it involves Ubuntu [21:56] great. I'm experiencing intermittent delays in network traffic. Other machines on the same network are not seeing this issue. [21:56] mustmodify_: ethernet or wifi? [21:58] im trying to dd from a floppy. where is this going to show up? [21:58] ubuntu 20 [21:58] using a usb floppy disk [22:00] under /media/ , i guess [22:00] Sorry for the delay. Stupid internet. Ubuntu 18. My first stab at measuring this: https://gist.github.com/mustmodify/41d8cfa3594dcbce5b450c046262ce90/edit [22:00] this is wifi. Issue was not present yesterday before the updates. [22:04] mustmodify_: see https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2354328&p=13614520&#post13614520 [22:05] In summary, `curl www.google.com` took 6s, 5s, 1.9s, and 21.5s. And as I said, google loads "snapily" (if that's a technical word, and I suspect it isn't) on other machines on the same network. [22:05] jeremy31: checking your link now [22:06] (page then takes FOREVER to load... ) :) [22:06] when downloading multiple assets it's a killer!! [22:09] mustmodify_, maybe its just the nameserver you're using [22:10] i think ive seen that when i had a slow nameserver selected [22:10] fits because single assets download fast once the nameserver returns IP, but each lookup is slow [22:24] I have to restart... confused about whether I'm configuring DNS properly. [22:33] on my macbook if i delete the DNS entries it auotmatically loads them from the wifi router [22:34] another possibility to consider ... maybe you should delete manually provided DNS and let it discover them from the router [22:38] how do I find what cluster size a file system is using? [22:41] ok. It's not the DNS servers. Can you send the other link someone suggested? I hadn't tried the second step yet. [22:42] https://gist.github.com/mustmodify/e81e596e59a8a44f4e4d2c16dca02920 Here's where I am now. [22:45] mustmodify_: what computer and wifi card? [22:45] Dell. I'll get the specifics. [22:45] dell inspiron [22:46] mustmodify_: Post URL from terminal for> lspci -nnk | grep -iA3 net | nc termbin.com 9999 [22:49] EVERYTHING TAKES FOREVER!!! [22:49] working on that now [22:52] still waiting for the "new gist" page to come up. [22:52] mustmodify_: just post the URL from terminal [22:55] https://termbin.com/xy8u [22:56] jeremy31: ^ that was quick! [22:58] mustmodify_: in terminal> echo "options iwlwifi 11n_disable=8" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/iwl-opt.conf [22:58] then reboot [23:00] what does that do? [23:01] mustmodify_: enables aggressive TX, it has helped with Intel wifi in the past [23:01] ok thanks. Note again that this started with an update yesterday, used to work. Restarting now. [23:17] still slow. :( [23:20] When I click on "New Terminal", I get a box and then 5 seconds later a terminal. What's happening during that time? [23:20] mustmodify_: you might want to use the grub menu and choose an older kernel from advanced options menu [23:20] I don't remember whether that's new or not, but it feels like the terminal used to appear in the window immediately. [23:21] ok I'll give it a shot. [23:33] Anyone around that can help with a bluetooth keyboard that pairs but won't type? [23:38] Hi! I have ubuntu 20.04 the latest dlib does not support the compiler that is included with Ubuntu 20.04 and also in order to compile with nvidia support dlib has to be compiled from the latest. Is this package available anywhere or is there directions for doing this with the compiler included in 20.04 [23:41] ah wait pip install dlib workswith compiler and version but the thing I am looking for is still missing. ah well cant get help here with that problem [23:41] thanks anyway === WalterWhitesCoo1 is now known as WalterWhitesCook
