=== brainwash_ is now known as brainwash [02:31] What's a sensible alternative to Gnome Boxes (a desktop hypervisor)? [03:05] How can I list the packages that are installed? === brainwash_ is now known as brainwash === pavlushka_ is now known as pavlushka [14:43] what is the pgp key and how to get it (i mean link to pgp key i konow pgp just gimme the key) [15:06] how do i upgrade a 18.04 to 20.04 ? [15:07] do-release-upgrade ? [17:42] why are mkv files played so slow on my computer? [17:42] i've an amd a4 5300b [17:45] mkv doesn't say anything really [17:45] mkv is just a container which can container almost any codec [17:46] manu1511: i'm guessing it probably has h265 in it or something [17:46] you can check using ffprobe my.mkv [17:46] you may need to apt-get install ffmpeg [17:47] and/or of course 4k files in general [17:47] as in 4k resolution, which can be heavy on older cpus, even in h264 [18:06] how screwed am i? do-dist-upgrade ended in https://paste.debian.net/1165671 [18:07] hansh: do you have a full filesystem? [18:07] either / or /boot [18:07] probably /boot [18:08] yeah /boot only has 33 mb free [18:08] im guessing that's what went wrong [18:08] just delete something from there, and then resume with apt-get install -f [18:08] or dpkg --configure -a [18:08] ... come to think of it, why doesn't do-release-upgrade try to make som educated guess as to whether or not you have enough space in / and /boot before... starting [18:09] good point [18:09] how large is your /boot anyhow? [18:10] .. 276M according to df -h [18:10] in total? [18:10] that's tiny [18:10] yeah in total [18:10] in your case, any education guess would almost always error [18:10] kernel+initrd is like 100megs [18:11] did automatic partitioning make it 276M? [18:11] .. dafuq, and it's using extended partitions for / [18:11] is your install on a tiny eMMC or something? [18:11] no [18:11] hansh: that's fairly normal IIRC [18:12] i never use extended partitions on gpt, what's the point, maybe it's mbr [18:12] hansh: no to the automatic partitioning or tiny eMMC [18:12] oh it really is mbr [18:12] hansh: gpt doesn't have extended partitioing [18:13] but with a /boot _that_ small I'd probably recommend reinstalling anyhow [18:13] but if you need to fix this anyhow, remove something from /boot [18:13] i know there's no reason to use extended partitions on gpt, but is it really not possible at all? [18:13] kk [18:13] but given how tight your /boot is, that might prove tricky, and you might render your system unbootable anyhow [18:13] hansh: the concept of extended partition doesn't exist in GPT, why would it [18:14] extended partition are a workaround for a design limit in the original MBR scheme [18:14] GPT is a new design [18:14] hansh: if you can spare the spare I'd probably go with 1-2G for /boot [18:14] an extended partition is basically just a fake filesystem entry, isn't it possible to make the same fake filesystem entry in gpt? [18:14] doesn't really matter xD [18:14] it's not a fake filesystem entry [18:16] if anything you're probably confused by the protective MBR some partitioing tools generate, where both MBR and GPT coexist on the same disk, having the same entries, mapped to each other [18:16] which means you might see extended partitions, but they still don't exists as a concept in GPT [18:16] it's just another partition [18:16] * pmjdebruijn it's entirely sure on the exact details though [18:17] > An Extended partition is a special type of partition that contains "Free Space" in which more than the four Primary partitions can be created [18:17] (random quote from help.ubuntu.com ) [18:18] yes [18:18] it's basically russian nesting dolls with partition tables [18:18] but it's not fake in any way
