| exodrifter | i have nvidia-driver-455 installed and when i boot up my computer, I have no display signal when xubuntu prompts me to decrypt the drive. Does anyone know how to troubleshoot that? | 03:10 |
|---|---|---|
| exodrifter | i get a display signal when nouveau is being used instead, but I want to use the proprietary nvidia drivers for steam/video games | 03:11 |
| ScienceMr | Exodrifter your hard drive is encrypted? Good luck! | 03:26 |
| ScienceMr | Encrypting a hard drive is not a good idea. | 03:27 |
| ScienceMr | Data Recovery on an encrypted drive is almost impossible. | 03:28 |
| exodrifter | Well, no, I'm using the computer right now. I don't need data recovery. | 03:28 |
| exodrifter | There's just no display signal when the computer is suppsoed to show the decrpytion prompt when the proprietary nvidia drivers are installed. I can still enter the password in blind and get into the system | 03:29 |
| ScienceMr | Have you gone to Nvidia website for their drivers? | 03:29 |
| exodrifter | No, I installed them via the additional drivers app in xubuntu | 03:30 |
| ScienceMr | By apt-get ? | 03:30 |
| exodrifter | No, through the additional drivers tab in the software & updates GUI. I'm not sure if that uses apt or not | 03:31 |
| ScienceMr | Did you sudo apt-get update & upgrade before and after? | 03:31 |
| exodrifter | no, I have not. | 03:32 |
| exodrifter | let me try that now | 03:32 |
| ScienceMr | That may be your problem. | 03:32 |
| ScienceMr | You may have to reboot. | 03:32 |
| exodrifter | well, i'd have to reboot anyway to test it :P | 03:33 |
| exodrifter | It didn't upgrade anything but i'll restart and check. be back in a bit. | 03:34 |
| ScienceMr | Always upgrade and update. | 03:34 |
| exodrifter | no dice, still no display signal at the decrpytion prompt | 03:36 |
| ScienceMr | Keep in mind you must upgrade and update all the time. Ubuntu 101 rule. | 03:37 |
| ubottu | Error: Ubuntu bug 101 could not be found | 03:37 |
| JackFrost | Heh. | 03:37 |
| ScienceMr | Copy the error message to Google and put the word Xubuntu before it. | 03:37 |
| exodrifter | yeah, i try to stay up to date. | 03:37 |
| exodrifter | what error message? | 03:38 |
| ScienceMr | Nvidia error. | 03:38 |
| exodrifter | i tried using google already, which is why i'm here. Is there a place where i can see nvidia errors? I'm never given an error prompt in the gui | 03:38 |
| ScienceMr | If you know anything about Google, you can talk to it and ask it questions. | 03:38 |
| exodrifter | Sorry, I don't really understand what you mean for me to do | 03:39 |
| ScienceMr | Also, you mentioned earlier you are using legacy hardware. | 03:40 |
| exodrifter | i am? | 03:40 |
| ScienceMr | Ubuntu keeps up with the latest technology. Perhaps your legacy hardware is not compatible with what you are trying to do. | 03:40 |
| exodrifter | I don't believe i am using legacy hardware. | 03:41 |
| exodrifter | OS: Ubuntu 20.10, KERNEL: 5.8.0-33-generic, CPU: Intel Core i7-7700K @ 4.20GHz, GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti, GPU DRIVER: NVIDIA 455.38, RAM: 32 GB | 03:41 |
| ScienceMr | It is difficult to troubleshoot another's problem without physically being there. | 03:42 |
| exodrifter | Yeah, I understand. | 03:42 |
| ScienceMr | Think of it as putting a mazarati engine in a volkswagon. :) | 03:44 |
| exodrifter | er... sure? | 03:45 |
| ScienceMr | Putting a jet engine on a pair of roller skates. | 03:45 |
| exodrifter | i don't understand what you're trying to say. | 03:46 |
| ScienceMr | Whenever there is a problem there is always an incompatibility. | 03:46 |
| ScienceMr | Some situations have no workaround. | 03:47 |
| exodrifter | I mean, that's fine, I was just wondering if anyone had any guidance on what to do. I don't currently have any reason to believe it's a hardware issue since it works fine with nouveau but i have a hard time finding anything relevant on google for the problem i'm experiencing. | 03:48 |
| exodrifter | you mentioned nvidia errors earlier, is there someplace that nvidia driver stuff gets logged? I tried asking google that but i didn't really get anything relevant | 03:49 |
| ScienceMr | Have you also used: http://www.duckduckgo.com <----< It is a much better Search Engine. | 03:50 |
| exodrifter | that is indeed what i'm using. | 03:50 |
| ScienceMr | OK. Let me take a peek. Hold on please. | 03:51 |
| exodrifter | i perhaps am not aware of the right terms to search with | 03:51 |
| ScienceMr | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ulQYC_HP9s | 03:52 |
| ScienceMr | https://duckduckgo.com/?q=Xubuntu+nvidia+driver+issues&t=h_&ia=web | 03:53 |
| ScienceMr | Use synonyms in your searches. E.g., issues instead of problems. | 03:55 |
| exodrifter | the first page of these results don't appear to be relevant... and that youtube link is for windows | 03:59 |
| exodrifter | anyway, i found out where the nvidia errors might be getting logged, so i'm looking into that now. | 04:00 |
| ScienceMr | I understand. Put Xubuntu before the search. Windows will show up because of the software WINE or VMWare. | 04:01 |
| ScienceMr | I run VBox with Ubuntu. | 04:02 |
| ScienceMr | Virtual Box. | 04:02 |
| ScienceMr | Sun Microsystems. | 04:02 |
| daregap | morning. Where does xubuntu 20.04 LTS store passwords? Is there a keyring daemon available? If so, which? | 06:00 |
| diogenes_ | daregap, gnome-keyring. | 06:09 |
| daregap | and if I understand correctly, this daemon stores passwords per-user, yes? I.e. each user has its own database somewhere in their home folder. There is no global database. | 06:15 |
| daregap | yep, looks like that's the case: ~/.local/share/keyrings | 06:20 |
| diogenes_ | daregap, seahorse is the gui. | 06:32 |
| daregap | yeah, thanks. Just found and installed it. | 06:34 |
| frutohumano | Hi, i'm new ubuntu user | 16:49 |
| frutohumano | I have 2 issue | 16:49 |
| frutohumano | long time to boot screens | 16:50 |
| frutohumano | and the logo xubuntu on boot screens don't showed when the boot start | 16:50 |
| frutohumano | someone get solve this ? | 16:51 |
| Fernando-Basso | frutohumano: “long time” means approximately how many seconds? | 17:12 |
| frutohumano | Fernando-Basso you are Brazilian ? | 17:18 |
| frutohumano | 2 minutes to boot and enter on desktop screen | 17:49 |
| Fernando-Basso | frutohumano: Yeah, I'm from Brazil. Is your computer hardware OK/fast and it is really just Xubuntu slowing things down? | 17:56 |
| frutohumano | Opa | 17:58 |
| frutohumano | blza Fernando | 17:58 |
| frutohumano | Falando em Portugês aqui | 17:58 |
| frutohumano | rsrsr | 17:58 |
| frutohumano | Sim minha máquina está rápida no windows 8.1 | 17:59 |
| frutohumano | No linux mint cinamon o boot também é tão rápido quanto no windows 8.1 | 17:59 |
| frutohumano | Mas no Xubuntu | 17:59 |
| frutohumano | O tempo de carregamento é Longo d+ | 17:59 |
| frutohumano | e a logo do xubuntu não aparece enquanto o sistema carrega | 18:00 |
| frutohumano | fica uma tela preta | 18:00 |
| frutohumano | durante o boot | 18:00 |
| frutohumano | tentei usar o xubuntu 20.04 pra ver se é a versão | 18:00 |
| frutohumano | mas o erro é o mesmo | 18:00 |
| frutohumano | aliás "não erro" mas sim um comportamento durante o boot | 18:01 |
| frutohumano | Testei com o Ubuntu mate, e Ubuntu DDE e ZOrin OS e o carregamento também ocorreu normal com a logo de cada sistema enquanto faz o boot | 18:02 |
| frutohumano | só no xubuntu que não dá | 18:02 |
| frutohumano | Atualmente uso o Xubuntu 18.04 | 18:02 |
| frutohumano | Se monstrou mais estável pra mim | 18:02 |
| frutohumano | e eu adoro o xubuntu | 18:02 |
| diogenes_ | !br | 18:02 |

| frutohumano | oh yes, thank ubotttu | 18:03 |
| mnemoc | hi, since displaycal was removed, how does one calibrate a monitor on 20.04? | 19:52 |
| mnemoc | got a i1Display3 | 19:52 |
| n-iCe | hi guys how is the touchscreen support in xubuntu? | 20:17 |
| mnemoc | nevermind, installing an old .deb and dependecies sorted it | 20:21 |
| Keres | anyone know how to stop Firefox from blocking websites? | 22:48 |
| Keres | what other browser could i install in Xubuntu because this Firefox blocking stuff is driving me nuts | 22:48 |
| raccoon_dog | What kind of blocking do you mean? What sites does it block? | 22:52 |
| Keres | redditr | 22:52 |
| Keres | anything with the instructions to disable site blocking in firefox | 22:52 |
| JackFrost | Just use ublock? | 22:52 |
| raccoon_dog | It blocks reddit? o.O | 22:52 |
| Keres | it blocks ubuntuforums | 22:52 |
| JackFrost | Ah. | 22:53 |
| Keres | it blocks a load of technical articles from linux sites | 22:53 |
| raccoon_dog | What message does it show when it blocks those sites? | 22:53 |
| raccoon_dog | That doesn't sound like typical behavior. | 22:53 |
| Maik | hard to believe since FF work fine here | 22:56 |
| raccoon_dog | Right. | 22:56 |
| raccoon_dog | That is not typical. | 22:56 |
| Keres | i cant even get to a site to paste the warnings it is giving me | 22:57 |
| raccoon_dog | Well, can you screenshot it maybe? | 22:57 |
| Maik | Keres: mind finally share some more info with us? we don't have a crystal ball | 22:58 |
| Maik | like which warnings? | 22:58 |
| Keres | https://pastebin.com/ARPrbkbm | 22:59 |
| Maik | reddit works fine here Keres | 23:00 |
| xtao | MITM proxy forcing the connection to HTTP rather than HTTPS? | 23:00 |
| Keres | https://pastebin.com/6XQRDN5W | 23:00 |
| Maik | any addons installed on FF Keres? | 23:01 |
| Keres | i just installed Xubuntu | 23:01 |
| Keres | so, however it came it is | 23:01 |
| Maik | updated? | 23:01 |
| Keres | updated what>? | 23:01 |
| Maik | xubuntu | 23:01 |
| Maik | sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade | 23:02 |
| Keres | its brand new | 23:02 |
| Keres | i just installed it | 23:02 |
| Maik | you need to UPDATE your system if you just installed it | 23:03 |
| raccoon_dog | ^ | 23:03 |
| raccoon_dog | Run the command Maik gave you, Keres. | 23:03 |
| Maik | ;) | 23:04 |
| Keres | Calculating upgrade... Done | 23:04 |
| Keres | 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. | 23:04 |
| Keres | i told you i just installed it | 23:04 |
| Keres | so its is up to date supposedly | 23:04 |
| raccoon_dog | Just installing it doesn't necessarily mean all the packages are the most recent ones; regardless, FF shouldn't be doing that. | 23:05 |
| raccoon_dog | How are you connecting to the Internet? Like, is it via some captive portal? | 23:05 |
| Keres | no | 23:05 |
| raccoon_dog | How? | 23:05 |
| Maik | Keres: which Xubuntu version? | 23:05 |
| Keres | its just a regular phone company internet connectio with a wireless router | 23:06 |
| Keres | chrome on xubuntu18. worked | 23:06 |
| Keres | i upgraded this box to 20.10 | 23:06 |
| Keres | what other browser can i install? | 23:11 |
| Maik | chrome, chromium | 23:12 |
| Maik | Keres: try removing firefox and remove the mozilla folder in home and then reinstall firefox | 23:15 |
| Keres | just sudo apt-get remove firefox? | 23:17 |
| Maik | Keres: sudo apt remove firefox will do | 23:18 |
| Maik | apt-get isn't used anymore | 23:18 |
| raccoon_dog | Would "purge" be better here? | 23:18 |
| JackFrost | I mean it is, you can use either actually. That one is specifically better for scripts. | 23:18 |
| JackFrost | Shouldn't have to re-install firefox at all, instead try creating a new profile and see if that helps. | 23:19 |
| Maik | Keres: still i find it hard to believe since you are the only one with these issues in FF. Do you have any add ons/extensions installed? | 23:19 |
| Keres | no, its stock how it came from the install | 23:20 |
| JackFrost | `firefox --ProfileManager` when firefox is closed and create a new profile. | 23:20 |
| Maik | impossible | 23:20 |
| raccoon_dog | Keres: When you upgraded to 20.10, did you upgrade from 18. whatever, or did you install 20.10 as a fresh install? | 23:21 |
| Keres | no, i nuked the disc | 23:21 |
| raccoon_dog | Yeah, then this makes no sense. | 23:21 |
| raccoon_dog | Very weird behavior. | 23:21 |
| Keres | besides, this was a mint machine | 23:21 |
| Keres | so it is possible that the firefox brand profile is missing or bad? | 23:22 |
| Maik | if you wiped the whole drive and did a clean install, i guess not | 23:24 |
| xtao | for what it's worth i'm using 20.10 installed from a clean install and firefox works fine. no issues | 23:24 |
| xtao | firefox 84.0 apparently | 23:25 |
