[00:32] after mistakenly configuring "sudoers" , i quit from root users , then i can't enter the root user account , how to fix it [00:42] oops: Copy the /etc/sudoers file from the liveUSB environment back to the install - is one way. [01:04] oops: I think you'll be given a root shell if you reboot into the recovery setting [01:04] oops: if that doesn't work, using init=/bin/bash or /usr/bin/bash on the kernel command line should give you a root shell you can use to fix things, but it's less convenient than using the recovery option if that works [01:28] Hey Everyone, I'm having issues with my Ubuntu Server (its either 18.04 or 19.xx) booting. This started a few weeks back where I had to update the bootloader, however this time it is behaving differently. [01:29] I'm now getting an "error: attempt to read or write outside of disk 'hd0'. error: you need to load the kernel first. Press any key to continue [01:29] I'm thinking this is due to my /boot partition being 100% full but i'm really unsure and not sure what is the best way to see if my /boot partition is 100% full [01:29] does anyone have any suggestions? [01:31] frenchface: hmm, someone else had a similar issue a few weeks ago, but iirc they wound up being fixated on something that felt pretty unrelated to me [01:32] <_Sym_> frenchface, check if your partitions are full by "df -h" [01:32] frenchface: a few months ago there was a security update that caused grub records to be regenerated, which broke a lot of people with incorrectly configured systems [01:32] I'm familiar with the df -h command, but I'm not sure how to run it as I cannot boot at all [01:32] frenchface: your problem sounds different, but the recovery instructions may still be useful https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/KnowledgeBase/GRUB2SecureBootBypass [01:33] I've also tried using some boot repair that I found off of Ubuntu website. however it was unsuccessful but generated this output: paste.ubuntu.com/p/BVgNssrnKc/ [01:34] Thanks sarnold, i'll take a look at the wiki [01:35] sarnold, there isn't a live CD for Ubuntu Server is there? If so I haven't been able to find it. Guess I should just use the desktop live cd? [01:37] frenchface: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-server/focal/daily-live/current/ or https://releases.ubuntu.com/20.04.1/ubuntu-20.04.1-live-server-amd64.iso [01:37] sarnold, ah thanks! [01:38] man I completely don't grok the output of this boot repair thing [01:38] <_Sym_> frenchface, your log says sda2 is 49% full [01:44] is it possible to upgrade from 18.04 to 20.04 yet? [01:45] sarnold, from the ubuntu server install, I do not know of a way to boot without installing. I know it is possible to do it from the Ubuntu Desktop, but how would you do it from the server install iso? [01:45] sarnold: i insert a usb , but it's no rescue option, and the boot menu which include kernel option don't appear during start , where to use those kernel command you addressed [01:48] pjs: either do-release-upgrade or do-release-upgrade -d will do the trick [01:48] hello , im having an issue, when i try to load ubuntu, this happened when i moved the server from our warehouse to our indoor office space, https://imgur.com/a/B6cDy3M [01:48] prior to that, everything worked [01:49] frenchface: it's been a few months since I've seen the server installer, but you can certainly just grab a shell on the thing, it might have been in the upper right-hand menu [01:50] Tripknotix: double-check all the drive connections, unplug and replug them all, double-check the power connections, etc [01:50] sarnold, ok thank you [01:51] sarnold: ah nice! I thought there was some blockers but I guess they fixed it. Thanks! [01:54] sarnold, it looks like from the ubuntu docs that I should be able to hit F2 or ctr Z to get to shell, but it doesn't do anything. would it be a terrible idea to use the desktop installer? [01:54] pjs: I think I've heard they wanted to avoid offering it until they figured out a workaround for legacy boot folks who have misconfigured the debconf database that says where to install grub.. [01:55] frenchface: desktop installer should work fine if you've got enough video card to run it [01:57] sarnold: ah ok. So I guess I'm good to give it a go then [01:57] pjs: yeah, probably [01:57] pjs: iirc dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc would let you pick where grub ought to be installed [01:58] pjs: .. and if that's correct, or if you're using uefi, then dpkg-reconfigure grub-efi-amd64 should do the job [02:01] is the pulse user meant to be in the 'bluetooth' user group? [02:01] on ubuntu 20.04 my bose qc35II keep connect/disconnecting [02:02] 18.04 was better but I think i had to mess with some profiles to get it to stream properly... don't remember [02:03] quazimodo: I don't think that user account is used by anything [02:04] bluetooth seems like it's super-flaky at best [02:04] bluetooth has always been annoying, the spec is super ridiculous [02:04] but i'm *fairly certain that bluez is ok, it's a pulse/bluez thing [02:04] as far as I can tell blueman simply coordinates bluez & pulse [02:05] still murdering my will to live, tho [02:06] the bluez logging output is a bit... not so great though; profiles/audio/avctp.c:session_cb() AVCTP session 0x55f468c898f0 got disconnected [02:07] i recon i need to work on the a2dp profile or something [02:08] could be a GDM thing eh [02:08] i should try in gnome-shell & see if it works there [02:09] sarnold, the last part says to run: $ mount /boot/efi [02:10] should i run it as /boot/grub ? [02:11] frenchface: hmm I don't recall seeing an EFI partition in your output, did I overlook it? [02:12] sarnold, no I do not have a EFI partition, but https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/KnowledgeBase/GRUB2SecureBootBypass under teh recovery instructions tells you to run it [02:14] frenchface: yeah, it's more there as a reminder to folks who do use uefi that they need to mount it in order to do many of the recovery options [02:16] sarnold: ok cool. I'm pretty sure I installed with defaults so I'll just let it do it's thing === zbenjamin_ is now known as zbenjamin [02:17] pjs: that's probably fine; the trouble is, if your grub-pc or grub-efi-amd64 debconf databases aren't configured correctly, it's a *real* pain to recover, but if it's fine, then it's only a few seconds to run the useless command. heh. [02:17] hello, impossible to install wine on Ubuntu Mate 18.04 [02:18] sarnold, this maybe a stupid question, but should I be able to mount the boot partition? [02:19] frenchface: that should work fine [02:19] Gosset: pastebin the errors you get when you try to install it? [02:19] sarnold, well I cannot, maybe that's my error [02:19] *problem [02:20] frenchface: hmm that's troubling indeed; are there any messages in dmesg that describe why? [02:20] from fdisk -l, /dev/sda1 is a BIOS boot, when I try to mount it I get the error wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda1, missing codepage or helper program, or other error [02:22] heh, that's entirely too many possibilities [02:23] is there anything more specific in dmesg? [02:25] sarnold, any keywords to looks for? running just dmesg | grep -i sda1 doesn't bring up anything useful [02:26] sarnold [02:26] https://imgur.com/3R3Tpam.jpg [02:27] why must I install wine32 if I am running Ubuntu 64 bits? [02:28] wine is a 32bit app, iirc [02:28] frenchface: dmesg | tail isn't too bad starting point [02:28] bof [02:28] ok [02:28] then, big problem because I can't install wine32 [02:29] wine32:i386 : Dependency: libwine:i386 (= 3.0-1ubuntu1) [02:29] big mess [02:30] sarnold, I just tried mounting /dev/sda1 of a BIOS boot type from another working VM and it doesn't mount either. So I'm thinking that it shouldnt be able find [02:31] sarnold: is there a way to know if I'm fine or not lol? [02:37] pjs: oh! thanks for the reminder. maybe there is :) try this: debconf-get-selections | grep 'grub.*install_devices' [02:38] frenchface: how did you try to mount it? how did it fail? where there more detailed errors in dmesg output? [02:39] frenchface: is it a bios boot partition? those have no file system, you can't mount them [02:39] i tried by mount /dev/sda1 /mnt, there were no errors in dmesg | tail [02:39] ducassee yes it was [02:39] sarnold: is htat in debconf-utils? [02:40] i'm thinking about following something like this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootPartition but concerning that it is talking about ubuntu 11 [02:40] pjs: yeah [02:40] "This free space must be located inside the first 100GB of the disk" omg that's ancient [02:41] sarnold: https://paste.sr.ht/~petersanchez/0debe806e3d56adbe4a497665018dc3a0c779add [02:41] pjs: hmm strange, I expected to see device names in there: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/sYnFDNYbyv/ [02:42] sarnold: hrmm, weird [02:43] so maybe I shouldn't update then :) [02:44] pjs: or run dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc and make sure it's set up correctly before rebooting :) [02:45] sarnold: dpkg-query: package 'grub-pc' is not installed and no information is available [02:45] Tried it just to see lol [02:46] should I install it? [02:47] pjs: very strange, I would have expected to see grub-efi-amd64 entries in your debconf selections if that's what you're using.. [02:47] pjs: try dpkg-reconfigure grub-efi-amd64 then? :) [02:47] ah yea, efi-amd64 is installed [02:47] let me try [02:48] sarnold: seemed to complete OK [02:48] I left my custom options there (which may not even be needed anymore but...) [02:49] pjs: would you indulge my curiosity and re-run the debconf-get-selections | grep 'grub.*install_devices' [02:49] I'm curious if those are populated now or not [02:50] sarnold: they are not [02:50] same output (different order but same values) [02:51] pjs: strange. thanks :D [02:51] sarnold: sure thing [02:51] sarnold: so you feel it's safe to update? lol [02:51] pjs: yeah [02:52] pjs: I upgraded on my own laptop months back and it went pretty okay [02:53] sarnold: ok so basically update, upgrade, dist-upgrade, do-release-upgrade, and finally dpkg-reconfigure grub-efi-amd64 - then reboot? [02:55] pjs: you can probably skip that final dpkg-reconfigure step [02:55] pjs: and probably dist-upgrade won't have anything to do after the upgrade, but it shouldn't hurt either [02:56] ah ok [02:56] thanks, as always, for your help [02:58] I'll do it this weekend in case I screw things up I can restore with calm :) [03:01] pjs: good idea :) have fun :) [03:01] oh wait, that's like three days away. for a moment I thought this was friday night. [03:03] Is there an online resource I can look at to see how to check within a .deb package for old versions and replace those with the new version of the .deb package? (created a .deb package, but don't want several old versions on a person's system) [03:04] BlueEagle: bro [03:04] chaslinux: there's often a debian/watch file in the package that can be used with uscan to find and download new versions to package [03:06] sarnold, the thing is I don't think I can get my package in repos (it's a game I created with GameMaker, so binary blob). Trying to make it simpler for people to install it rather than just run from folder. [03:08] I've actually written a script to automate most of the debian package creation, but I wondered if perhaps a preinstall script or Makefile to do that task? Not really a programmer, so a bit confused. [03:08] BlueEagle: are you there? [03:09] chaslinux: if you're willing to put in some work you could get it packaged in debian, then it'd be in ubuntu 'for free' -- you could also make a snap of it, you could probably have that done in a few hours, but it'd require folks to have snapd installed [03:09] Actually I did make a snap of it earlier, but never could get the audio working... [03:10] mozzarella: ask your question into the channel please [03:10] chaslinux: d'oh :( [03:11] lotuspsychje: I still can't print anything, doesn't seem to have anything to do with sleep [03:12] I'll look a bit more sarnold, thanks, will try to get it in the repos. [03:13] mozzarella: re-ask your question with all details in channel, with your tryed steps [03:29] bluetooth certainly is weird :/ [03:29] connects perfectly to my wife's qc35II headphones [03:29] dies in the ass when dealing with mine :/ [03:33] sarnold: hah, still Wednesday :) [03:50] turns out my idiot headphones were broken & bose pushed a fix jesus [04:39] Hey guys, I am facing a little bit weird problem and that is when I lock my system and login again some of my configurations are not applying like I have remapped my Caps Lock to Escape, that is not there after opening my system again after locking. Somehow the repeat keys configuration is also being reset and it is becoming to much distrubance [04:39] I am using 20.04 Ubuntu === hzmi is now known as hzmi35 [05:13] i have a encrypted usb as a live usb , when i insert it as a live os , it will prompt enter password to decrypt it ,now i insert it as a common usb on my pc , how to decrypt it to view content [05:39] oops: i think you need to mount it as an ecryptfs [05:39] https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/407662/encrypting-mounting-directory-with-ecryptfs [05:39] something like the instruction at the bottom there? [05:40] is it ecryptfs encoded? [05:41] quazimodo , i opened it with command "cryptsetup luksOpen" , that usb is a encrypted kali live , [05:47] hrm that's different to ecryptfs isn't it [05:47] oops: gnome files (nautilus) should be able to detect and open dmcrypt-luks encrypted storages. [05:48] quazimodo: yes, that's different, ecryptfs was file system encryption, dmcrypt-luks is block device encryption. [05:48] tomreyn: any reason why we have both dmcrypt & ecryptfs? [05:49] !ecryptfs [05:49] EcryptFS is a file system encryption. It is deprecated since Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, see bug 1756840 for details. Use full disk encryption (dmcrypt-luks) instead. [05:49] oh, interesting [05:49] so my ecryptfs encrypted home dir on 20.04 is shit [05:50] it would be good to do a fresh installation at some point. [05:51] i literally just did :/ [05:51] i think i ecryptfs'd my home dir my self [05:51] oh, so you're saying 20.04 still supports ecryptfs? [05:51] oh i see [05:52] i think you can remove the encryption without data loss [05:52] but then you'll have none [05:52] oh i remember now, I encrypted put /home on /dev/sda4 [05:52] there is also cryptsetuü-reencrypt, but it's not very user friendly. [05:52] so if I do block level encryption it would mean that the entire /home dir is unencrypted once any user logs in [05:52] cryptsetup-reencrypt [05:52] rather than being producted user-user [05:53] "protected"? [05:53] right, that's a difference you get with file system vs block level encryption [05:54] yeah [05:54] how many human users are there using your system, though? most of the time, for desktops, the answer is 1 [05:55] lol it's a laptop [05:55] actually i could use either, that doesn't matter, but im surprised that they deprecated ecryptfs for 20.04 [05:55] it's a different way of doing it, dno why you'd deprecate [05:55] bug 1756840 [05:55] bug 1756840 in ecryptfs-utils (Ubuntu) "Buggy, under-maintained, not fit for main anymore; alternatives exist" [Undecided,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1756840 [05:56] that was quick, did you prepare that answer earlier ? [05:57] quazimodo: volunteers follow the recent/biggest bugs [05:57] it is a bug report, the one which the previous fact i requested from the ubottu bot points to. [05:58] ah ok i didn't see [05:58] yeah ok [06:00] pardon my paranoia but this feels like an nsa thing [06:00] it's encrypted, but only while the whole system is powered down [06:00] :/ [06:01] where is firefox's irc channel [06:03] mozzarella: #firefox ? [06:03] oh wow no maintenance since 8 years ago [06:03] encfs looks good [06:05] quazimodo: both file system encrpytion and block device encryption can only protect your data while it's not mounted / opened. if you want file system encryption (should not be for *this* reason) you should probably go for ext4 + fscrypt. [06:07] understood, i haven't read about ext4+fscrypt [06:07] i presumed that that would be block level too [06:09] ext4 is the default file system on ubuntu installations. [06:11] mozzarella: it's actually on mozilla's own IRC network [06:13] encfs works pretty well indeed [06:13] and gocryptfs is worth a look [06:14] anybody with physical access to your storage and real interest in your data won't be stopped by encryption, so you shouldn't try and protect against that [06:14] what encryption does the best against is the odd mid-tier criminal, who just stole your laptop, and instead of pawning it _immediately_ for $5 of drugs, turns it on and sees if you have your bank account information saved in a text file [06:15] people who really want your data don't waste time stealing your computers anyway [06:20] matsaman: i've seen antitrust i know how they put cameras & steal your stuff [06:21] cameras are pretty useful [06:22] why do I have netplan-eth0 and eth0 and which one is active? [06:23] al_nz1: because you created one of them and both are active [06:24] leftyfb: I have not created any of them [06:25] al_nz1: what version of ubuntu is this? Desktop or server? [06:25] but there is a 01-netcfg.yaml and a 01-network-manager-all.yaml [06:25] Lubuntu [06:25] hello [06:26] can anyone here help me with this please ? https://paste.swordarmor.fr/3hrb [06:26] al_nz1: with ubuntu desktops, you shouldn't need to mess with any netplan files. Your network manager handles networking [06:26] recon it's possible to use gnome-shell applications like the wifi/bluetooth applets & the menu bar with i3? [06:26] or did they build gnome-shell so monolithic that you cant really use parts of it [06:29] leftyfb: well I have changed both adapters to static ip - but its not being reflected in ifconfig [06:30] al_nz1: how did you set them static? ifconfig isn't installed by default on ubuntu systems using netplan [06:30] Rico: what's the problem? [06:31] matsaman: the DNS config I enter for the VPN via network manager is not shown in systemd-resolve --status [06:31] leftyfb: using the gui network tool - perhaps network manager [06:31] it should be [06:31] it results in DNS not working correctly with VPN [06:32] as my DNS config is not push into systemd-resolve when I brong my vpn up [06:32] bring [06:32] Rico: what VPN system are we talking about? [06:32] leftyfb: I can screen share if you are able to take a look? [06:32] matsaman: openvpn [06:33] in my pastebin, I should have DNS: 192.168.159.168 in my tun2 description [06:35] Rico: you've got the network-manager-openvpn package/s installed? [06:35] matsaman: the only file where I'm able to find this DNS entry is /var/run/NetworkManager/resolv.conf [06:35] matsaman: yes. everything works fine ecept DNS [06:35] except [06:38] the netplan rendered is networkd [06:38] how do I change a IP with networkd [06:56] nobody ? [06:56] nope [06:57] !behelpful | mefistofeles [06:57] mefistofeles: As our !guidelines say, "When helping, be helpful". If you're not familiar with the issue at hand, let someone else handle it instead of making !offtopic comments or jokes. [06:58] hah [07:08] :) [07:10] I'm fuc*ing stuck with that [07:14] Hello. What is a good standalone application panel/tray/menu using Xlib not gtk/qt. Standalone X panel if you will. Anyone have a suggestion? The idea is to use it with Ubuntu 20.04 and Xmonad [08:03] chown: " Few applications use Xlib directly; rather, they employ other libraries that use Xlib functions to provide widget toolkits" [08:03] chown: from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xlib [08:07] chown: But xmobar is best fit I can find. [08:08] hubby's new Ubuntu 20.04 says it can't see the internet. lshw doesn't mention network? [08:08] clearly the lan is connected, i'm here. [08:08] but the computer can't see it [08:08] chalcedony: Does lsmod show anything ethernetty? [08:09] I have that already. I have dmenu as well. I just wanted a panel I can click with my mouse with app switcher, app menu, systeray [08:09] hmm [08:09] i will go see [08:09] If not, I can use stalonetray or tryaer, np. But application launcher/switcher is needed [08:09] minimal panel [08:10] chalcedony: I'm sorry, I meant lspci [08:14] chalcedony: Also, which network interface card are they using? [08:14] BlueEagle, oh that might be better, i didn't see much there [08:14] BlueEagle, it would be onboard lan, gigabyte motherboard.

[09:12] hi. i am stuck in a dependency loop. i am trying to do-release-upgrade, and it upgraded glibc, but glibc requires kernel 3.6 or newer, but i can't upgrade my kernel because i get the error: Errrors were encountered while processing: [09:12] /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.27-3ubuntu1.3_amd64.deb [09:12] E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) [09:12] whenever i use dpkg or apt, i get that error [09:22] aeternum3: which release are you upgrading from? What's the current kernel (uname -a)? [09:22] aeternum3: can you pastebin the WHOLE output, not just the last two lines [09:23] have you tried force with the dpkg removal of libc6 [09:23] don't do that. [09:24] no, i don't plan to do that [09:25] it's a bit hard for dynamically linked commands to work without libc6 [09:25] and almost all commands in ubuntu are dynamically linked [09:25] ok [09:26] jelly https://pastebin.com/AUYxQ8T5 [09:32] jelly: also, from 16.04. trying to get up to 20.04 [09:32] aeternum3: you can't skip from 16.04 straight to 20.04, can you?

Edit /etc/apt/sources.list I guess, put repos for 16.04 (xenial) back instead of repos for 18.04 (bionic) [09:39] Stupid question maybe -> Why don't you install a fresh copy of 20.04 if you really want it that bad? :D [09:40] I've had so many bad experiences with doing release upgrades in the past, that I'm never gonna do one again (although the latest releases may be easier to upgrade). I'm just not taking chances... [09:40] if you have a ubuntu dvd, and windows 10 is already on a computer, how do you tell it not to delete the initial os? [09:40] spending hours/days fixing problems that arise [09:41] chalcedony, you first need to create a new partition on your harddrive where you wish to install Ubuntu. [09:41] pho}e{nix: it;s because it's a vps [09:41] The installer will automatically detect the Windows installation and not delete it. [09:41] aeternum3, so what? [09:42] jelly i think i fixed it by changing /etc/apt/sources.list to xenial, doing apt -f install, then changing back [09:43] oh. nope. didn't fix shit [09:45] chalcedony, try not to take space from your existing windows partitions if you don't want headaches [09:48] pho}e{nix: they need to add ISOs for newer distros [10:02] Hi everyone I'm running into a weird issue with ubuntu-based docker images. / seems to be missing the world-executable flag so no user other than root can open a shell. Any ideas? [10:05] aet... eh [10:08] pho}e{nix: a container-based VPS where aeternum3 did not have control of kernel or kernel version, and the kernel was a EL6 openvz 2.6.32 one. You can't run the normal installer there at all [10:08] chalcedony: If adding a separate drive for Ubuntu is not an option then you will have to shrink the existing partition. There are always risks in modifying the filesystem and partitions, so first make a backup of everything you need. Win10 does have a tool for resizing partitions. Alternatively there is gparted that can run from the installer environment. [10:46] jelly, container-based was missing there :D [10:50] there's more context above. But it's all moot since the user is gone === jeddo- is now known as jeddo [11:33] Hello [11:33] hi all. could you please advise me what exactly do 'install-info' utility package and if it is necessary for the system?

[13:32] also btw: anything super drastic changed in 'recent' ubuntu versions? on lack of proper backup i resorted to extundelete and im just curious it says '0 recoverable inodes found', it was a long shot anyway but absolutely zero strikes me a lil bit odd [13:42] (like even lsdel in debugs says 0 deleted inodes found oO) ubuntu 20.04 ext4 ~ just curious *gets busy applying brain backup to machine* ^^; [14:16] Having WiFi issues with Ubuntu 20.04. The speeds are very slow ~1-2 Mbps, while my phone on the exact same broadband shows 50-60 Mbps. Any idea why? [14:18] spicywall: wich chipset is that please [14:19] How do I find the chipset? It's an Intel laptop. Lenovo Ideapad 13.

[14:22] Yes, there wasn't a problem [14:22] Since 20.04, I have started noticing the slow speeds [14:22] lspci should tell you more about it [14:22] That's the weird thing when I do lspci [14:23] lspci | grep Network Network returns nothing [14:23] spicywall: system up to date to latest please? [14:23] shouldn't have all that much stuff just lspci and find it [14:23] also [14:23] spicywall: are you chatting from the computer right now?

When loggin in, a keyboard appears when I touch the screen but not when I'm logged in. Anyone familiar with this? [14:32] why does ubuntu does not come with synaptic by default anymore? [14:32] fernando_: install synaptic? [14:32] hggdh here is the https://pastebin.com/R4eFw3s6 for the lspci command [14:33] i installed but im a newbie it was hard [14:34] fernando_: you asked why ubuntu does not come with synaptic by default anymore. If you know that ubuntu shipped synaptic before you are not a newb at all [14:35] yes i played with it some years ago [14:35] on my virtual machine [14:35] and installing synaptic is easy: sudp apt install synaptic [14:35] sudp/sudo [14:35] sudp? [14:35] sudo [14:36] fernando_: was a typo so it's sudo apt install synaptic [14:37] thanks [14:37] you're welcome :) [14:39] Based on inxi output, "Realtek RTL8723AU 802.11n WLAN Adapter" is the network adapter.

I can do that, but this issue has been there for quite sometime now - even when I was up to date. [14:50] @tatert [14:51] !uptodate | spicywall your current system [14:51] spicywall your current system: To ensure you have all the latest known patches and security updates for your ubuntu installation, please update with the following command: `sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade`. See also !upgrades and !security; you may also need to run `apt full-upgrade`. [14:51] tatertots thanks, I will try the driver from lwfinger [14:52] lotuspsychje sure, will do the update [14:52] spicywall: wifi can be a pita honestly. I've seen where disabling IPV6 has helped. Also disabling 802.11n or changing the wifi band your router is using. Upgrading the kernel could work, or it's possible you just have a dying wifi card [14:53]
