| lotuspsychje | good morning to all | 02:48 |
|---|---|---|
| guiverc | does anyone know the program whcih expands the ISO on install? (it'll be same if calamares/lubuntu or ubiquity/rest so I'm betting not the the installer package) | 03:37 |
| sarnold | "expands"? | 03:39 |
| guiverc | writes the squashfs to the actual disk... bug 1898302 | 03:40 |
| guiverc | sorry, wasn't well explained; bug complains ubuntu are putting details in wrong locations on disk, non-Linux standards.. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1898302 | 03:42 |
| sarnold | guiverc: that's called usrmerge, it's all the ragethese days, https://wiki.debian.org/UsrMerge | 03:44 |
| guiverc | thank you most kindly sarnold :) I'll read it.. and hopefully get clues ! thanks | 03:45 |
| guiverc | That's most apt !! (not the package name, no pun). thanks! | 03:46 |
| sarnold | hah, and coming back to re-read what I wrote, 'rage' is quite the perfect choice :) | 03:46 |
| sarnold | a great many people seem to think usrmerge is the best thing ever | 03:46 |
| sarnold | and a great many people are driven to apoplexy over something so inane | 03:47 |
| sarnold | anywaym, have fun :) | 03:47 |
| guiverc | :) always try! | 03:47 |
| tomreyn | guiverc: in #ubuntu , nickanme lapion brought up something which sounded similar: | 09:29 |
| tomreyn | <lapion> Why do the ubuntu install dvd's rely on a symbolic and or a hard-link ? | 09:29 |
| tomreyn | <lapion> has everybody forgotton that the only truly useful file system for smaller usb-sticks is vfat ? | 09:29 |
| tomreyn | starting at 02:12 am CEST (should be 00:12 UTC), if you ant to look at the logs. | 09:31 |
| tomreyn | i'm not sure it's the same thing, though. | 09:32 |
| guiverc | thanks tomreyn | 09:37 |
| * guiverc was dealing with food so waited till I'd finished & washed hands .. I expected to find a duplicate of it so I could mark it as such, I gave up looking; but settled with EOL'ing numerous bugs that cluttered my searches... | 09:40 | |
| lotuspsychje | guiverc: if my eyes see correctly, the bugs about ltsupgrade seems like to be 4.15 kernel bionics to 20.04.1 | 09:41 |
| guiverc | I was commenting about the /bin link /usr/bin.. ; but most bugs I've seen on upgrade seemed to be python, qt4/5 but I'm opening less than half of upgrade bugs I see on -announce | 09:44 |
| lotuspsychje | ah kk | 09:45 |
| === akem_ is now known as JohnnyCage | ||
| tomreyn | oh i missed that 18.04 -> 20.04 is now supported | 14:22 |
| tomreyn | since 2020-09-28 | 14:25 |
| daftykins | that was a heck of a delay | 14:56 |
| tomreyn | longer than usual for sure, but probably not longer than needed. | 14:59 |
| tomreyn | are zfs services running or even installed on a default 20.04.1 desktop, if anyone knows? | 17:05 |
| tomreyn | that's if the zfs option hasn't been chosen on the installer | 17:06 |
| tomreyn | dmesg | grep zfs on a default install should tell (i don't have one here currently) | 17:07 |
| lotuspsychje | tomreyn: grep returns nothing here | 17:08 |
| tomreyn | thanks | 17:09 |
| lotuspsychje | and i installed 20.04.1 in such early stage, i cant recall i saw the option in ubiquity | 17:09 |
| tomreyn | so before .1 release? | 17:10 |
| lotuspsychje | tomreyn: yeah i always help testing lts very early stage | 17:11 |
| lotuspsychje | so i dont have .1 clean installed systems here | 17:11 |
| tomreyn | okay, so it could have been added late rone | 17:12 |
| tomreyn | * later on | 17:12 |
| tomreyn | thanks | 17:12 |
| Maik | welcome Squarism & Seven_Six_Two | 20:03 |
| Maik | my brain isn't 100% awake yet, my apologies for not inviting you earlier | 20:05 |
| Squarism | thanks | 20:07 |
| Seven_Six_Two | np. didn't know about this chan. I do sit in -offtopic now and again | 20:08 |
| Maik | offtopic is just too busy and most of the time only about nonsense imho. In this channel users can chat more relaxed about non support related Ubuntu stuff. | 20:10 |
| jeremy31 | Anyone familiar with dkms? I am wondering why it seemed to fail on https://github.com/jeremyb31/bluetooth-5.4.git details at https://askubuntu.com/questions/1277459/bluetooth-rtl8723be-does-not-find-devices-on-lenovo-ideapad-100-14iby | 21:42 |
| TJ- | how is it failing? | 21:46 |
| TJ- | source install path should match the package name and version, e.g. /usr/src/$PACKAGE-$VERSION | 21:47 |
| jeremy31 | Hi TJ- It seemed to fail for the user on the askubuntu site, but it worked when I tested it, his modinfo showed intree module loading after a reboot | 21:47 |
| TJ- | ` I must have missed that part in the ask | 21:48 |
| jeremy31 | TJ-: bottom of the question, might have been some glich where a new kernel was installed before the dkms was added | 21:51 |
| TJ- | there's a link to "show 14 more comments" but it never does! | 21:53 |
| TJ- | is it a 'depmod -a' issue? or is the module never built or installed ? | 21:54 |
| jeremy31 | TJ-: worked fine after I told them to go into the directory and do a make clean, make, and had them copy the new module to where the original btusb.ko was and reboot | 21:55 |
| TJ- | jeremy31: so did they do a "sudo dkms install module/version" ? | 21:55 |
| TJ- | if it fails, it will/should report why | 21:56 |
| jeremy31 | TJ-: dkms add and dkms install | 21:56 |
| TJ- | and they've put the source in the correct /usr/src/$MODULE-$VERSION directory? | 21:57 |
| TJ- | you'd need to capture/grab the dkms log of the build from /var/lib/dkms/ | 21:58 |
| jeremy31 | TJ-: I think I will try again on this machine after installing a new kernel but before rebooting to see what I find out | 22:01 |
| jeremy31 | Thanks for your time | 22:03 |
| Ziopeppus2 | Hello | 22:41 |
| jeremy31 | TJ-: It must have been a kernel update before a reboot when the dkms was installed. Got similar results on this machine | 22:43 |
| TJ- | jeremy31: that sounds likely, especially if you're not passing the -k option to specify which kernel version to build/install for | 22:44 |
| jeremy31 | TJ-: A rare case from what I see. Any way to do it automatically in Makefile or dkms.conf? | 22:46 |
| TJ- | jeremy31: in theory the /etc/kernel/postinst.d/dkms script should ensure a new build / install... but if that fails (silently) then the symptoms would match | 22:49 |
| jeremy31 | TJ-: I think that depends on the newer kernel being installed before the dkms | 22:52 |
| jeremy31 | after not before | 22:53 |
