OERIAShi folks00:01
OERIAS I have an issue with Grub00:01
OERIASI currently a setup of a PC with two drives00:01
OERIASone drive will be for Windows 1000:01
OERIASand the other drive will be for ubuntu00:01
OERIASduring install, I set the installer to install Ubuntu on the second drive00:02
OERIASI am set grub to be installed on that drive00:02
OERIAShowever during install, I get a grub failed to install message.00:02
OERIAScan someone help?00:03
Smaug_hey all, i have a really strange error where I run  `ifconfig` or `sudo ifconfig` and it just hangs00:14
Smaug_no error message00:14
Smaug_i ran it because my internet seems down also00:14
zykotick9OERIAS: <my 2 cents> install WIndows first then install ubuntu, and put grub on the MBR of the 1st (booting) drive.  Best of luck.00:14
Smaug_any thoughts on what might be going on and how to stop it?00:15
tomreynSmaug_: which ubuntu release is this?00:16
zykotick9Smaug_: "ip" is the modern replacement for ifconfig... just sayin'00:16
Smaug_18.0400:16
Smaug_tomreyn: zykotick9: 18.04, and happy to use ip to resolve the issue instead00:17
Smaug_suggestions of avenues to investigate?00:17
zykotick9Smaug_: "ip a" might get you started.00:17
Smaug_zykotick9: `ip a` also hangs00:17
zykotick9doh00:17
tomreynSmaug_: see    journalctl -eb    to see what's the underlying issue.00:17
Smaug_tomreyn: lots of output from that.  can try to get it to you (remember that comp has no internet) but there is among output, a red error line saying "watchng: BUG: soft lockup - CPU3 stuk for 22s!"00:22
Smaug_lots of other outputas well00:23
Smaug_should i look for something else in particular/00:23
Smaug_?00:23
tomreynSmaug_: anything regading networking, netlink, network manager (if Ubuntu Desktop), systemd-networkd (if Ubuntu Server), PCI00:25
tomreynSmaug_: a 22 second CPU core lockup is probably not a good thing.00:25
OERIASzykotick9,00:26
Smaug_tomreyn: yah what should i do.   also i don't see to have systemd-networkd and of course, cannot download00:26
OERIASI can't install Windows00:26
OERIASWindows is preinstalled00:26
OERIASand I would prefer to install ubuntu in the way asked.00:27
xamuaOERIAS: you can download a bootable image from MS and put it on a USB00:27
OERIASbut that is not what I want.00:30
OERIASWhat I want is to to preserve that Windows Installation.00:30
tomreynOERIAS: what you reported initially could be an instance of bug 139637900:30
ubottubug 1396379 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) "installer uses first EFI system partition found even when directed otherwise" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/139637900:30
OERIASthen what should I do?00:31
tomreynread the bug report, see whether this is actually the bug you're seeing, or not. only IF it is, read the suggestions provided to work around it and apply them.00:32
tomreynOERIAS: if your hardware provides enough performance for this, consider running windows in a VM under ubuntu instead. it's often times a better setup than dual-boot00:37
OERIASI have been running Ubuntu and Windows as dual-boot for 15 years00:38
OERIASfor some reason I have an issue with grub00:38
jayjoI'm looking at getting a Wake on LAN ethernet card for my existing ubuntu machine. Is that something that I need to make sure I have motherboard compatability in order for it to work? It's a PCIe card, which I have slots for available. The built in ethernet on the MB does not have WOL, which is why I'm looking into it.00:42
tomreynjayjo: yes, you need motherboard support00:44
jayjowhat does it mean for the PCIe card to support it? It passes the magic packet up the chain to the motherboard?00:46
jayjoOr, it has the ability to do that, and some other PCIe cards would just ignore that packet? Whether or not the MB supports it?00:46
tomreynsince this channel is about an operating system, and you have hardware / firmware questions, i suggest asking in ##hardware00:47
kk4ewtjayjo, check your bios first most mb now a days the is in the bios00:47
tomreynhttps://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Wake-on-LAN#Hardware_settings provides some generic info, but in the end it'll be manufacturer / model specific how to set it up00:48
jayjothank you00:50

adam4567On 18.04, so I'm formatting a new 2TB usb drive as ext3. Almost 2 days laters and it still going. Is this usual?05:13
adam4567"Partitioning Master Boot Record" is says on Disks at the top.05:15
adam4567I'm on Ubuntu 18.04, formatting a new 2TB usb drive as ext3. Almost 2 days laters and it still going. Is this usual?06:30
adam4567net dropped out so must repeat, sorry06:30
adam4567The Ubuntu Disks application at top says "Partitioning - Master Boot Record". That's probably OK for usb drive, I guess.06:31
EriC^^adam4567: no that's not normal, it should take a min or so06:56
adam45672TB reformat from FAT32 to ext3, via USB, no, elsewhere says 30 hours or so.06:58
EriC^^oh, reformat07:01
EriC^^adam4567: what do you mean, you're preserving the data? or a fresh format?07:01
adam4567It was new from the shop, ready for MS. I'm formatting to ext3 for Linux07:03
adam4567I think its slow because USB2, probably should be USB3 but I don't know can't confirm07:04
EriC^^adam4567: no, something is not right, it should only take a few minutes, when you format it only sets up the filesystem and that's all07:06
EriC^^adam4567: cancel the application and we can do it manually from the terminal07:06

adam4567Hmm. OK.07:06

EriC^^no need07:08
adam4567here's screenshot https://imgur.com/a/4tBXf4q07:15
adam4567I might leave it overnight. It was straightforward using Disks to unmount then select ext3 and format.07:16
EriC^^adam4567: you're encrypting it?07:16
roryIt shouldn't take anywhere near that long07:17
rory1. To show the USB drive among all storage partitions and volumes on your computer use: lsblk07:17
rory2. Suppose it may be /dev/sdy1. Unmount it with: sudo umount /dev/sdy107:17
rory3. To format drive with the FAT32 file system format: sudo mkfs.vfat -F 32 /dev/sdy107:17
roryTo set a file system label for your drive in the process: sudo mkfs.vfat -F 32 -n 'name_for_your_drive' /dev/sdy107:17
adam4567Eric^^ don't know about encrypting, I thought I was locking by adding a Password07:21
EriC^^adam4567: it's made a LUKS encryption07:22
roryThat encryption process requires every bit on the drive to be written, which will be slow over USB2, you're right07:22
adam4567also, I'm not exactly sure how to stop this thing in Ubuntu's Disks application. I could kill from Sysmon I guess.07:22
EriC^^adam4567: you could try pressing on the "x" and force stop t07:23
roryalt-f2, run "xkill", the next application you click will be killed dead07:23
adam4567Thanks rory: I can leave it for a bit longer07:23
rorydoesn't matter about data loss there since you intend to format it anyway :)07:23
adam4567I will leave it for a bit, overnight. It seems ext3 2TB over usb2 takes a white, and LUKS encrypted multiplies that by some huge order.07:25
adam4567 .. takes a while ..07:25

vijuHello, I am using ubuntu 20.04. I am experiencing slow internet connection on my ubuntu machine. When I check speed on other devices on the same network they're get more speed; nearly double.07:29
vijuWhat could be the issue? The router does not have anything throttled for any connection.07:30
vijuOkay, there's something not right with the wifi. When I plugged in the ethernet cable the speed is back to normal as on other devices.07:36

freechipshello all. is this the right place to ask for help with an apt issue ("trying to overwrite...") ?09:41
ThinkT510if you are running ubuntu then yes09:42
roryYes, freechips, please share the command you are running, and the full output on https://paste.ubuntu.com09:43
freechipsalright. So, i'm tryna install some stuff but ubuntu complains that "You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these", then discussing some linux-tools dependency. It says to run "apt --fix-broken install", which fails with a "trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/libcpupower.so.5.8.0-33', which is also in package09:44

g105bI need some advice. I didn't like the idea of Snaps or Flatpacks when they first started gaining traction, but now I've just tried to edit some audio in Audactiy -- one of the most lightweight pieces of software I've ever used -- and my entire PC came to a grinding halt... it turns out that I'd accidentally installed it via Snap instead of the09:44
g105bnormal Deb mechanism, and it's unusably slow. I also have issues where snap apps can't copy/paste between each other, or files saved in the apps aren't visible to the filesystem... Surely this is a problem with ME rather than Linux?09:44
freechipsit sounds like a pretty ez bs issue, but i haven't been using linux ina while so idk.. thanks09:44

roryfreechips, Is it an option to simply "sudo apt remove linux-hwe-5.8-tools-5.8.0-33" ?09:51
roryfreechips, sorry I think that would be: sudo dpkg --purge linux-hwe-5.8-tools-5.8.0-3309:52
freechipsthx rory, i just noticed the logs aren't updated frequently enough for me to briefly log off-on09:52
freechipsit should be possible to run that command, i dont think im using any particular linux stuff, and as long as it's not an essential package i am fine to remove it09:53

HoLyDea7hHey  huys need help12:12
HoLyDea7him trying to set the minimum frequency of my cpu to 800 from 480 (max 2240MHz) 480 is way too low and when needed it takes alot of time to rev up12:13
HoLyDea7hi installed tpl ...didnt work out now im trying with cpupower commands12:13
HoLyDea7halso have cpufreq which is set to performance mode ,but .....its not any different from power save mode12:14
HoLyDea7hi have intel_pstate driver12:15
HoLyDea7hanyone familiar with processor tweaks ?12:15
HoLyDea7husing xubuntu xfce deskop enviroment12:17
pedrocrHoLyDea7h: if you want performance over power consumption setting the cpu policy to performance is probably a better bet than trying to tweak values12:17
pedrocrecho performance | sudo tee /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_governor12:18
HoLyDea7hi changed it in cpufreq the only place i found way to change and it did nothing12:18

=== thnee1 is now known as thnee
gordonjcpsamba35: graphics card?  What exactly are you trying to check or do?12:20
HoLyDea7hpedrocr, if that is for check its on performance ,but sometimes the processor is just stuck on 480 and no matter what i do it doesnt go up12:20
HoLyDea7h(judging by the cpufreq graph)12:20
HoLyDea7hits annoying to wait for 2 minutes for the browser to start and seeing the processor just sleeping ,and the cpu fan doesnt start its just like idle12:21
HoLyDea7hif i change it atleast i know its gona work on 800 minimum not on the dumb 480 its not 199012:21
HoLyDea7hsometimes when it gets stuck on minimum it doesnt change unless i restart the whole pc....which is more waiting game12:22
pedrocrHoLyDea7h: that wasn't to check, that just set it to performance12:22
pedrocrif it's actually stuck at a low value under load then there's another problem12:22
HoLyDea7hthanks ,still want to try out cpupower commands if you are familiar12:23
pedrocrif it's stuck at something so low as 480 I'd suspect a hardware problem, lack of cooling most likely12:23
pedrocrwhat machine is this?12:23
HoLyDea7hasus x550 sa12:24
HoLyDea7hit never goes hot ....so its not cooling issue12:24
HoLyDea7hatleast hot on touch12:24
HoLyDea7hits notebook i suspect its gona get hot outside if its hot on the inside xD12:24
HoLyDea7him also down for fan speedup and disabling idle proccesor fan if possible ...12:25
HoLyDea7hidc about any type of power saving i just want it cool and fast xD12:26
pedrocrsounds like broken kernel power management then12:29
pedrocrmaybe there's a quirk to fix it somewhere but I don't know it12:30
HoLyDea7hthank you pedrocr if its broken kernel will roll back fix it ?12:32
HoLyDea7hi know ubuntu saved the system on every start but idk if xubuntu does12:32
pedrocrif it started happening recently then rolling back might work, but if it's always been like that it's just a bug12:37

dev76Hi I upgraded system ram from 4 gb to 6gb by inserting another 2gb pc3-10600s but ubuntu didn't recognize. Still showing 4 gb20:59
dev76both ram are ddr3l20:59
Habbiedev76, does the BIOS recognise it?21:03
geniiYou may want to check your computer user manual for the memory configurations it accepts21:04
geniiOften they require matched pairs21:04
dev76yeah that shows 4gb but motherboard has compatibility of upto 8gb ddr3l as per user manual so it should have recognized21:05
Habbiedev76, if the BIOS is not happy, it's unlikely Ubuntu will ever be happy - so start there21:05
dev76but can you tell me just basic thing with hardware like if older ram is pc3-12800s, then would pc3-10600s be supported as newly added ram21:07
geniiIn general, if you add slower memory to a system, all the ram will be clocked to the lowest common denominator. But some systems do not accept mixed-speed sticks at all21:08
geniiIt is very system-dependent21:09
dev76given that in reverse scenario, pc3-10600s was the older ram and i added up new pc3-12600s in another system, then it worked21:09
=== kostkon_ is now known as kostkon
oerheksmaybe your mobo accepts only pairs, ECC perhaps?21:10
geniiThe system will not know in what order ram was added. Only that the configuration is either good or not good21:10
leftyfbdev76: you could also try #hardware, as this issue is hardware related and not Ubuntu related21:10
dev76leftyfb : says can't join channel you must be invited21:11
leftyfbdev76: try ##hardware21:11
geniiYes, it's a double-hash channel21:12
oerheksddr3 wants pairs, AFAIKnow21:13
dev76yeah its not about pairing, one way it works like I said in reverse scenario where older one is pc3-12800s while newer one is pc3-10600s21:26
dev76but the other way another system doesn't recognize.21:27

dev76I provided them link to system user manual as well : https://www.dell.com/support/manuals/en-in/latitude-3540-laptop/lat3540om-v1/specifications?guid=guid-e315ddbf-4e3a-4547-8172-c47a1a5d8f8921:32
dev76Dont know if they had gone through21:32
leftyfbdev76: please take it to ##hardware. Non-ubuntu issues are offtopic here21:32
u_ra@dev76 crucial lists only 1600mhz ram as compatible with your dell 3540, so it might just be a bios issue https://www.crucial.com/compatible-upgrade-for/dell/latitude-354021:38
dev76any other good channel for hardware21:40
u_ra@dev76 crucial lists only 1600mhz ram as compatible with your dell 3540, so it might just be a bios issue https://www.crucial.com/compatible-upgrade-for/dell/latitude-3540 if the bios is updated and the stick is not visible you can't do much more tbh, gl21:47
NomenclaturaAm I the only one who finds chrome-sandbox 4755 absolutely and utterly unnacceptable? How can people download random binaries and set them root setuid??? Crazy people... craaaaaaaaaaaaazy.21:48
goddardevery time i boot into ubuntu it messes up my windows raid21:48
leftyfbgoddard: how so?21:49
u_ra@dev76 keep in mind there's also integrated graphics running off system ram so maybe 'there's reasons' for dell to keep ram requirements @ 1600mhz21:50
goddardwell i boot back into windows after booting into ubuntu and I have to repair errors21:51
leftyfbgoddard: ok, so which part of that has anything to do with affecting RAID volumes as opposed to an unclean filesystem?21:53
dev76u_ra : makes sense and this is what I wanted to clarify that in general the lowest compatible clock is chosen by system for rams if they are of different clocks given same tech based i.e. "ddr3l" . But this system couldn't21:54
goddardleftyfb: because files get corrupted21:55
leftyfbgoddard: it sounds like you are mounting the filesystem in Ubuntu from said RAID volume and it's not being unmounted properly or Windows isn't unmounting it properly so when it gets mounted, Windows flags it as unclean. Have you disabled fast boot in Windows?21:55
goddardleftyfb: usually when it is just an "unclean" filesystem it just gives a warning and you carry on with your day.21:55
goddardthis is actually errors corrupting data21:56
goddardat least newish data21:56
goddardis that the same thing?21:56
leftyfbgoddard: https://www.windowscentral.com/how-disable-windows-10-fast-startup21:56
dev76u_ra  : people on another channel were talkin about dimms compatibility but I dont think that's an issue given both are  ddr3l .21:57
leftyfbdev76: please keep the discussion in ##hardware. This channel is for Ubuntu support21:58
goddardleftyfb: interesting thanks21:58
goddardubuntu solving windows problems since (insert ubuntu creation date here)21:58
oerheksit all depends what you do with that windows raid, goddard, some mysql server that is not properly stopped and shutdown ?22:00
oerheksor anti virus that kicks in :-P22:01
goddardyeah I guess more to it then I thought22:02
goddardBeen trying to debug an issue in Ubuntu so I always have to reboot.22:02
goddardStupid nvidia driver isn't loading22:03
goddardI deleted the xorg config but still won22:03
goddardwon't load22:03
goddardsince i installed a new gpu22:03
goddardtried to purge and reinstall but that didn't help either22:03
ELFrederichHi, I have a Ubuntu server running.  I created ~/bin and downloaded a "vault" binary there.  I also set VAULT_ADDR in ~/.bashrc.  After logging out and back in I'm able to run "vault status".  But I can't do that over ssh.  i.e. `ssh my-machine "vault status"`22:06
Bashing-omgoddard: the /var/log/gpu-manager.log file provide any hints ?22:07
ELFrederichfirst it doesn't find the vault binary, then even if I do `ssh my-machine "~/bin/vault status"` it's not picking up the VAULT_ADDR environment variable I set in ~/.bashrc.22:07
goddardBashing-om: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/c52XjGpqrj/22:09
Nomenclaturasnap = evil22:10
tomreynNomenclatura: if you'd like to discuss Ubuntu and its features, there's #ubuntu-discuss22:11
tomreynthis, #ubuntu, is just for support (see /topic)22:11
oerheksgoddard, so you claim to have a RTX 3090...22:12
goddardyes22:12
tomreynELFrederich: does    ssh my-machine whoami    return the same username as the user whose ~/.bashrc you edited?22:12
ELFrederichtomreyn: yes22:12
ELFrederichit's "ubuntu"22:13
oerheksgoddard, then you already know what driver you need, and what kernel.22:13
tomreynELFrederich: what does    which vault    return when run in either variant?22:13
ELFrederichtomreyn: maybe the sshd only reads that file once?  Like I said, I had to log out and back in for it to work in an interactive ssh session.22:13
goddardoerheks: at least 460 i think for nvidia and not sure on the kernel22:14
ELFrederichtomreyn: on a new interactive session I get "/home/ubuntu/bin/vault", but via "ssh my-machine which vault" it gives nothing22:14
tomreynELFrederich: what you described above sounded like you got it to work locally, in a virtual temrinal, after logging out and back in again, and then it kept working. and that it never worked over ssh.22:15
tomreynELFrederich: but now you're saying it worked through ssh once and then never again?22:16
=== a999 is now known as m1-curious
oerheksgoddard, 5.8 or higher.. and this card is so fresh, disable Secure Boot22:16
oerheks455 driver would work, afaik22:17
ELFrederichtomreyn: from my experience, on new ubuntu machines there is no ~/bin directory.  If you create it and put an executable in there you have to log out and back in for ~/bin to be on your PATH.  That's been my experience.  I'm just wondering, without rebooting, how to get this working over SSH22:17
goddardoerheks: ahh okay so my kernel is probably too old22:18
oerheksfresh 20.04 would give 5.822:19
Bashing-omgoddard: "last cards number = 2" Sorry I do not know how to deal with twin cards.22:19
goddardoerheks: but not an upgrade?22:19
goddardBashing-om: well thanks for trying22:19
oerheksi think you need HWE if you are still on 5.422:20
oerheks!hwe22:20
ubottuThe Ubuntu LTS enablement stacks provide newer kernel and X support for existing LTS releases, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack22:20
Bashing-omgoddard: At least ya have some points to work toward - presently there is no driver available.22:21
u_raElFrederich: maybe just put link/symlink or miniscript inside /usr/bin, can also include var export there22:21
ELFrederichu_ra: was looking to understand the problem, not really create a workaround.22:23
ELFrederichu_ra: I have a feeling if I restart the sshd service it may start working22:23
* ELFrederich tries22:23
ptahi tried to manually connect my wifi by running /var/run/dhclient-eth1.conf, but it said permission deniied even with root or sudo22:23
tomreynELFrederich: what you described about ~/bin is what i'd expect, too - for interactive shells only.22:24
ptahhow to do this?22:24
ptah/sbin/dhclient -d -sf /usr/lib/NetworkManager/nm-dhcp-client.action -pf /var/run/dhclient-eth1.pid -lf /var/lib/dhcp3/dhclient-eth1.lease -cf /var/run/nm-dhclient-eth1.conf eth122:24
ELFrederichtomreyn: yeah.... where do I edit environment variables for non-interactive shells?22:24
tomreynELFrederich: should work immediately over ssh if it's an interactive session and ~/.bashrc of the very user is evaluated.22:25
tomreynELFrederich: /etc/environment system-wide22:25
tomreynor.. some place in ~/.config i forgot22:25
tomreyn~/.pam_environment or ~/.profile according to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnvironmentVariables22:27
tomreynbut i *think* the former actually moved into .config/ somewhere22:27
ELFrederichtomreyn: so for non-interactive, is there a place to modify per-user?  /etc/environment would be for all users22:28
tomreynpam_env(8) still says $HOME/.pam_environment on 18.04 LTS, though22:28
tomreynthere is ~/.config/environment.d/*.conf in the systemd context22:31
ELFrederichthanks, gotta run... I'll look into that later22:32
goddardBashing-om: oh really so nvidas driver only supports 1 3090 on linux?22:33
ptahanyone got my question?22:34
tomreynwhy are you doing this in the first place?22:40
Bashing-omgoddard: No === depends on the card as to the proper driver . the latest drivers from Nvidia are available.22:44
Bashing-omgoddard: ^ what card(s) are we working with: lspci -k | grep -iEA5 'vga|3d' ?22:46
IarlaUbuntu Software, under the Explore tab only shows a single row of Editor's Picks. Is it not possible to browse categories any more?22:47
goddardBashing-om: I'd tell ya, but I am in windows now.  Going to reboot into Linux and attempt to install the new kernel and see if that helps.  I will relog in here later and let you know.22:49
oerheks:-)22:49
ptahtomreyn, just wanted to learn it22:51
ptahmanuaslly22:51
ptah-s22:51
Bashing-omgoddard: Good deal - we be here to try and help - But I say again I know nothing of twin (SLI ??) cards - will be an adventure for me.22:56
GeoHi, my new laptop w/ 20.04 on it freezes after it suspends- relevant syslog is at https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/htjQVDyVqY/ if anyone has ideas on a cause23:47
Geoand part b) I can't figure out how to disable 'suspend'23:48
GeoUnder the 'power' settings, 'automatic suspend' is turned off for 'plugged in'23:49
parabyteis there any obscure fuse plugins that can mount an email account as storage?!?!?!23:54
parabytejust out of curiosity23:54
oerheksdid you care to check the available connectors in systemsettings?23:55
