| plshalp | hi. my (new) laptop (with a fresh install) does not wake from suspend. what to do? I have enabled "deep sleep", and expanded the swap file, and told grub where it is. | 00:20 |

| === Aye is now known as id | ||
| matsaman | plshalp: what does it do instead? | 00:21 |
| plshalp | by "not wake", I mean that the keyboard and fans turn on, but not the monitor. I also tried using an external monitor, but no go there either. and, indeed, the fans are a bit more violent than I'd expect for it to have merely resumed successfully. | 00:21 |
| matsaman | plshalp: is ssh running? Can you ssh into it? | 00:21 |
| plshalp | "keyboard" = keyboard light. | 00:22 |
| plshalp | matsaman: no, although that is something I could test, maybe tomorrow, if necessary. good point. | 00:22 |
| matsaman | plshalp: well | 00:22 |
| matsaman | if you can ssh into it, that is, if only the visual output is broken | 00:22 |
| matsaman | then it could be a fairly popular bug that using nomodeset can help with | 00:22 |
| plshalp | I doubt that, because if that were true, I should be able to just input password, type "reboot" into the terminal, and voila, no? | 00:23 |
| plshalp | worth mentioning, I suppose, that I do not have nvidia graphics. it's a lenovo thinkbook with intel graphics. (I noticed, while searching, that a lot of problems were nvidia-related.) | 00:23 |
| matsaman | that's hard to say, your screen is probably locked even if it's not working | 00:24 |
| matsaman | waking to an unlocked screen, by default, would be a security problem | 00:25 |
| matsaman | plshalp: yeah, although I think kms is a thing with intel also | 00:25 |
| matsaman | anyway, ruling out the graphics driver screwing up is the first step | 00:25 |
| plshalp | intel has kms, yeah. I could just try nomodeset and reboot, and rejoin here, I suppose\\ | 00:26 |
| matsaman | and being able to use ssh while the screen is black is an easy way to do that | 00:26 |
| plshalp | yes, absolutely. I'll try that tomorrow (if still applicable.) | 00:26 |
| plshalp | welp. nomodeset wasn't a magic bullet at least. | 00:29 |
| plshalp | but the fact that the fans go nuts tells me there's probably more to it than video. | 00:29 |
| === genii-core is now known as genii | ||
| plshalp | bit depressing that suspend to ram apparently only had some glory years between 2010 and 2015 where it seemingly Just Worked™ on every laptop, and now it's gone to... again. | 00:30 |
| plshalp75 | ok. tried a couple of things. 1. starting music before suspending. and 2. using the fn/caps lock keys on the keyboard. the music didn't resume, and the fn/caps lock keys did not work. (they have light indicators.) so it's definitely not just the display. | 00:38 |

| WereCatf | I am having trouble with screen-sharing in Ubuntu, namely that it works all fine and dandy normally, but if the display goes off after the PC being idle, screen-sharing stops working; the VNC-connection fails with no received data. I can't disable the idle-timer for the display, so is there some way of making screen-sharing work with it enabled? | 04:42 |
| WereCatf | I'm not even sure if this is a bug in Ubuntu or gnome-screen-sharing itself | 04:42 |
| trekkie1701c | WereCatf: I'm about to head to sleep so I can't really dig too much into it, but I think there's some xrandr commands that can be used to turn the screen on/off. Loginctl has a way to activate a session as well, though I don't know if that'd wake the screen when you activate the session. But those could be things to look into. | 04:54 |

| nikolam | Hello, postfix in freshly upgraded from 20.10 to 21.04 , complains on /etc/postfix/main.cf containing hostname (choosed local only configuration) and stops updating of other packages. Is Postfix required/included in default packages set and is it a postfix problem or else? | 07:04 |
| nikolam | I removed postfix fully with configuration files, reinstalled it, but when it asks during install and choose local configuration and hostname, I get the same situation | 07:04 |
| nikolam | Maybe if I choose "internet site" ? | 07:05 |
| mgedmin | what is the exact error message? can you pastebin? | 07:07 |
| BlueEagle | nikolam: In general you should read the postfix documentation carefully so that you do not set up open email relays. That being said internet site with smart host is probably a better choice. | 07:07 |

| mgedmin | nikolam: ah yes, well | 07:20 |
| nikolam | That machine once required some jumper to be set on motherboard to start behaving normally, and it started doing similar thing again | 07:20 |
| mgedmin | nikolam: is this a server that has a static IP and a global DNS name? I'm guessing not | 07:20 |
| mgedmin | nikolam: I've used myhostname = localhost on a few occasions; postfix didn't complain about that | 07:20 |
| nikolam | mgedmin, it's local workstation, don't plan on having public mail server on it, static is also changable thing | 07:20 |
| mgedmin | nikolam: wait, 'xdesk..', what are those two dots doing there?? | 07:21 |
| mgedmin | first, is myhostname set in /etc/postfix/main.cf, or /etc/mailname? | 07:21 |
| nikolam | wel dunno.. let me re-configure, I haven't enter myself any dots.. maybe during upgrade... | 07:21 |
| mgedmin | second, once you've discovered where the "xdesk.." is set, drop the two trailing dots | 07:21 |
| mgedmin | I'm guessing upgrade is relevant only in that postfix is now stricted in validating configuration values | 07:22 |
| mgedmin | *stricter | 07:22 |
| nikolam | /etc/mailname don't exist and yes, xdesk.. is set in /etc/postfix/main.cf for some reason.. | 07:23 |

| zetheroo | I have a laptop here (Thinkpad T14 Gen2) which has a very peculiar problem - the network works perfectly over WiFi, but over Ethernet it's almost unusable because it's constantly timing out and when it does "work" it's extremely slow. | 11:54 |

| zetheroo | braewoods: ok, just a min | 12:13 |
| braewoods | normally these use some network NIC from another vendor such as Intel, Broadcom, Realtek | 12:13 |
| braewoods | given a laptop it's probably a PCIE NIC. | 12:14 |
| jeremy31 | braewoods: I think it uses e1000e | 12:14 |
| braewoods | that would be intel based | 12:14 |

| tatertots | zetheroo: are you chatting from the computer right now connected to "wired" ? yes/no | 12:21 |

| tatertots | zetheroo: so you are chatting from the PC connected to WLAN/wireless right now? yes/no | 12:22 |
| Dovid | braewoods: I don't follow. So there is an issue with the partition table? | 12:22 |
| zetheroo | tatertots: I have a VNC session working to the PC. The PC is connected via Ethernet and WiFi .. this is the only way it "works" | 12:22 |

| zetheroo | ok | 12:51 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: your gateway is 192.168.80.1 | 12:51 |
| zetheroo | correct | 12:51 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: ping it when you observe and or notice some loss or degradation in connectivity | 12:52 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: it does show a slight %33 loss but that is NOT on premise | 12:52 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: I'd be interested in seeing the results when you observe some degradation and or loss | 12:53 |
| zetheroo | Well right now the PC is only connected via Ethernet and I am trying to open YouTube in Firefox and it's been loading since over a minute | 12:53 |
| zetheroo | if I switch over to WiFi it loads in a couple seconds | 12:53 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: firefox introduced their own little DNS thing a while back, not sure if you opted in or if users can still "opt out" of using that "feature"...just something to keep in mind | 12:54 |
| zetheroo | ok, but I experience the degradation also when doing 'apt update' for example | 12:54 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: with that having been said your name resolution shows as expected | 12:54 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: ok let's test some youtube while connected only to LAN | 12:55 |
| PCplague | Is there microwaves near ?? is lunchtime ?? | 12:55 |
| zetheroo | youtube.com timed out ... all I got to see was the TOS page | 12:55 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: mtr -r -c 3 142.250.114.91 &>> ~/nip2.pir | 12:56 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: route -n &>> ~/nip2.pir | 12:56 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: mtr -r -c 3 142.250.114.190 &>> ~/nip2.pir | 12:57 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: show the contents via pastebin | 12:58 |
| zetheroo | http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/7fPp83Qvjb is any of this (from syslog) of interest ? | 12:58 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: syslog isn't of interests to me personally with your symptom(s) ...i'm sure someone might be interested...just not me | 12:59 |
| zetheroo | tatertots: with only the Ethernet connected? | 12:59 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: yes | 12:59 |
| zetheroo | k | 12:59 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: keep in mind the firefox thing i've already mentioned...so you might test different browsers to be more thorough | 13:01 |
| zetheroo | but if it were a browser issue why would 'apt update' be stalling as well when trying to reach the repos? | 13:02 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: it wouldn't | 13:02 |
| zetheroo | trying it now as well ... getting Err:2 ... Connection timed out 91.189.88.152 | 13:03 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: you also don't mention which repos specifically, but you have some control over that via the GUI thing | 13:03 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: show the pastebin | 13:03 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: if you're getting timed out on the repos, you've probably seen some pattern in the tests we've done thus far, so you can use these things with IP's of the repos you have issue with in the future | 13:05 |
| zetheroo | http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/m5fX2XQZQq | 13:08 |
| zetheroo | I included the output of 'apt update' | 13:09 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: i'm seeing losses on these | 13:10 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: just FYI those IP's are of youtube.com | 13:10 |
| zetheroo | could it have something to do with sssd? The WiFi network does not have access to the AD domain, but the Ethernet network does. | 13:11 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: so yeah i'd believe it wasn't exactly loading "instantaneously" in your firefox...i'd buy that | 13:11 |
| zetheroo | :) | 13:11 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: i can't reach that specific repo either...so you might change away from it | 13:12 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: i'm getting a time out on that repo IP also | 13:13 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: so... | 13:13 |
| zetheroo | with WiFi connected 'apt update completes without issue for me. | 13:13 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: i'd rather see the results of pings and traces rather than your human descriptions and observations....no offense | 13:15 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: if you can show that with pings and traces that would be ideal | 13:15 |
| zetheroo | its very hard because I cannot just cop/paste stuff back and forth :/ | 13:16 |
| zetheroo | https://ibb.co/VY0SzvY | 13:17 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: if a repo is giving you trouble ..you can change repos, to complete any update or installations...you won't need to be in constant contact with any repo | 13:17 |
| zetheroo | first one is on Ethernet, and the second on WiFi | 13:17 |
| co0n | tatertots, did I read you correctly in that you could reproduce packet loss at the destination when running mtr against 142.250.114.190 and 142.250.114.91 ? Because this is not reproducible from my place at all. There are some "cloaked" hops with 100% loss before the destination, though. | 13:19 |
| cbreak | Hi all. I have a problem with 21.04 of severity "slightly annoying". My normal audio output is done via a FiiO USB DAC. But when ever I turn on my USB Microphone (which has also audio out), Ubuntu automatically switches to the microphone as audio output, despite this being undesirable. Can I mark the FiiO as prefered output? | 13:19 |
| zetheroo | it's not just the repo, it's all networking - browsing to local network shares, logging in as an AD user, connecting to the PC via VNC ... etc | 13:20 |
| co0n | zetheroo, that means we can rule out your ISP, i suppose. | 13:20 |
| zetheroo | over the Ethernet connection it's extremely unstable, but over the WiFi it's like normal | 13:20 |
| zetheroo | co0n: definitely. I am in an office with over a hundreds systems running ... ;) | 13:21 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: have you compared your LAN and WLAN configurations? | 13:21 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: use the repo IP when doing any testing | 13:22 |
| zetheroo | I have about 5 other laptops (including another Ubuntu 20.04) connected via Ethernet in the same office as the trouble-PC ... and no problems on them. | 13:22 |
| co0n | zetheroo, are those ubuntu machines running the same package set, e.g. using some provisioning software, or are they all manually installed? | 13:23 |
| zetheroo | tatertots: like this? https://ibb.co/Rzwdjx9 | 13:23 |
| zetheroo | co0n: mine is Ubuntu 20.04 and the trouble pc is 21.04, but I also tried a LIVE session of 20.04 on the trouble pc and it had the same problem with the network | 13:24 |
| zetheroo | co0n: they are manually installed | 13:24 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: i see you're using IPv6 on one interface and not the other...you might reconcile why that is, and determine if you should be using IPv6 on both or NONE | 13:24 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: you have a v6 addy on wifi | 13:25 |
| zetheroo | tatertots: by default it was enabled on both. Someone previously suggested I try disabling it on the Ethernet connection ... which is why it's disabled there | 13:25 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: which happens to be the interface you do NOT have problem with...coincidence ...? | 13:25 |
| diamondbond | is anyone here running adwaita themes on ubuntu? | 13:25 |
| tatertots | you'll need to reconcile these type of things | 13:25 |
| co0n | tatertots, the intermittent packet losses where on ipv4, iirc. | 13:25 |
| co0n | It might be a good idea to disable ipv6 until things are sorted though, i agree. | 13:26 |
| zetheroo | co0n: ipv6 has already been disabled on the Ethernet connection | 13:26 |
| zetheroo | that was the first thing I did | 13:27 |
| tatertots | co0n: i tried to ping the repo IP he couldn't connect with and it timmed out for me too | 13:27 |
| tatertots | timed | 13:28 |
| co0n | zetheroo, just disable it globally for the time being. | 13:28 |
| zetheroo | My own Ubuntu 20.04 laptop has ipv6 enabled on both WiFi and Ethernet and no probs here | 13:28 |
| co0n | tatertots, aah, i thought it was about the youtube ips. thanks for clarifying. | 13:28 |
| tatertots | co0n: no worries/prob | 13:28 |
| co0n | zetheroo, it's probably not ipv6, but disabling it won't hurt in debugging an ipv4 problem. Less things to consider... | 13:29 |
| zetheroo | ok, just looking for how to disable it globally | 13:30 |
| zetheroo | is it enough to disable it via the GUI? | 13:30 |
| zetheroo | I disabled it on both Ethernet and Wifi connections | 13:31 |
| zetheroo | via the GUI that is | 13:31 |
| co0n | zetheroo, you can check by looking at the `ip a` output again. | 13:31 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: sometimes disable of v6 via the GUI is NOT enough | 13:32 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: keep that in mind | 13:32 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: sometimes it doesn't actually disable it | 13:32 |
| zetheroo | co0n: yep, the inet6 info doesn't show up anymore | 13:32 |
| zetheroo | I also disconnected the connections and reconnected | 13:32 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: wired/wireless both using auto/dynamic IP? or static?...i don't think inquired about that prior | 13:33 |
| zetheroo | unfortunately this hasn't resolved the problem | 13:34 |
| zetheroo | everything dynamic | 13:34 |
| zetheroo | tatertots: ^ | 13:34 |
| co0n | zetheroo, we have observed packet loss when connecting to youtube. The apt-update errors have to be considered a separate issue, I suppose, as the server seems to be unresponsive for others as well. Can we find another unrelated host to which the mtr trace reports packet loss? | 13:35 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: i'm on the same page and or agree with co0n ...present some other host/IP to scrutinize and or test with | 13:36 |
| zetheroo | maybe something local ? | 13:36 |
| co0n | zetheroo, what about `mtr -r -c 3 cactuar.canonical.com`? | 13:37 |
| tatertots | co0n: did you have any packet loss to youtube from your area?...i didn't have any either | 13:38 |
| zetheroo | right, what if it's not showing up with IP addresses because it's DNS related ... is that possible!? | 13:38 |
| co0n | tatertots, noo, it was all fine, just some cloaked hops right before the destination. | 13:38 |
| co0n | zetheroo, according to the only "real" error we have observed, it was unrelated to dns, as we were tracing youtube ips. | 13:39 |
| co0n | zetheroo, apart from the recommendation to switch your mirrors to something that actually responds. Reference https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archivemirrors to find something suitable to and/or near you. | 13:41 |
| zetheroo | I tried `mtr -r -c 3 cactuar.canonical.com` and only had 33.3% loss at the third hop "3.|-- zara.zh.as8758.net" | 13:41 |
| co0n | zetheroo, what happens if you just run it again? I suspect you will get different results every time you run this. | 13:43 |
| zetheroo | co0n: ok, which mirror will work for sure ... I'll switch to it. | 13:43 |
| tatertots | zetheroo: you won't need to be in constant contact with any repo..just long enough to complete the install/updates...you can easily manage repos via some GUI tool in the menu structure somewhere | 13:43 |
| co0n | zetheroo, zara is unfortunately not on my path, so I can't say too much about the host reachability. | 13:44 |
| zetheroo | the problem is not the repo, but I'll switch to the best one and test .. | 13:45 |
| co0n | zetheroo, general recommendation is to use a mirror in a country near you you can trust. | 13:45 |
| zetheroo | yeah, initially it was set to the repo in Switzerland, and I thought it was just a repo issue so I changed it to "Main server" | 13:46 |
| zetheroo | want me to try "Server for United States"? | 13:46 |
| zetheroo | refreshing software cache ... done ... | 13:47 |
| zetheroo | on Wifi | 13:47 |
| co0n | zetheroo, you are talking to us on the machine you are trying to debug? | 13:47 |
| zetheroo | no | 13:48 |
| co0n | zetheroo, because you keep switching to the working setup.. | 13:48 |
| zetheroo | it's right beside me | 13:48 |
| zetheroo | yep, on Ethernet it's wrecked ... hang on ... waiting for it to finish and then I'll send it over | 13:48 |
| co0n | zetheroo, I just re-checked and it seems there was a single archive.ubuntu.com host [91.189.88.152] aka actiontoad.canonical.com unreachable. I cannot reproduce any problem here right now. | 13:50 |
| zetheroo | ok, 'apt update' actually completed this time on the Ethernet without timeouts ... but it took ~10 X as long ... I suppose the US repos have a longer timeout set | 13:51 |
| co0n | zetheroo, please retry the last mtr command a few times. | 13:51 |
| co0n | zetheroo, I am not convinced it is not a fluke. | 13:52 |
| zetheroo | ok testing ... | 13:52 |

| zetheroo | SergeyIT: thank you!! | 13:56 |
| zetheroo | I was starting to think I was nuts :D | 13:56 |
| co0n | SergeyIT, zetheroo, that would suggest running a speed test to confirm this, or am I mistaken? The packet loss might be a part of this worth documenting in the bug. | 13:57 |
| zetheroo | is there a way to run a speedtest with a command as opposed to doing it via the browser? | 13:58 |
| zetheroo | "Transmitting doesn't seem to have such a problem, it only seems to affect receiving data." sounds like what I am seeing | 13:59 |
| co0n | zetheroo, you can use iperf if you have an endpoint to connect to. This can be just another instance on a laptop not exhibiting this problem. | 13:59 |
| co0n | zetheroo, linode seems to cover it adequately: https://www.linode.com/docs/guides/install-iperf-to-diagnose-network-speed-in-linux/ | 14:01 |
| zetheroo | ok | 14:01 |
| zetheroo | I also found this https://linuxways.net/ubuntu/use-speedtest-cli-to-test-internet-speed-on-ubuntu-20-04/ | 14:01 |
| co0n | zetheroo, sure, use a documentation from someone you think you can trust. | 14:02 |
| co0n | zetheroo, but I would be hesitant to install python just for this. But it will be there already anyways if its a desktop system, I reckon. | 14:03 |
| WaV | FWIW, I've used the cli method for speedtesting and it is slower than testing from a website in a browser. | 14:04 |
| leftyfb | speedtest-cli has known limitations | 14:04 |
| zetheroo | thing is that I want to test against something outside the local LAN | 14:05 |
| co0n | zetheroo, then use a browser to connect to speedtest.net | 14:06 |
| co0n | zetheroo, netflix' speed test is at fast.com, also worth a try. | 14:06 |
| zetheroo | I would ... except ... almost nothing loads in the browser while connected only to the Ethernet :) | 14:07 |
| zetheroo | I'll keep trying though | 14:07 |
| co0n | zetheroo, this makes me think that you either have an additional problem on top of the bug linked by SergeyIT, or a different problem. | 14:08 |
| leftyfb | co0n: fast.com also has limitations. ~300Mbps or so | 14:08 |

| gbit86 | If there is a 3rd and easier option then I am all ears - but essentially I have a real need for remapping my keyboard input while using a remote desktop solution and the xrdpkeyboard virtual driver really throws a wrench into that - and even plugging straight in doesn't fix it.. | 14:39 |
| co0n | gbit86, it might help if you try to tell us what you actually try to accomplish, since you seem to have done quite some research already. | 14:57 |

| gbit86 | co0n: Boils down to me wanting to use my kinto.sh remapper program while in my remote session. Virtual keyboard input drivers don't work with the python based remapper - only physical /dev/input keyboards do.. so naturally I want to just plug straight in or emulate a usb keyboard device. | 14:59 |
| co0n | gbit86, why would you remap a remappable keyboard for a second time? (This I typed before you responded ;) ) | 14:59 |
| gbit86 | co0n: The linux room has pointed me to multi-seats so I am now looking to properly implement that with my xrdp session and then see if I can connect physical usb device per the seat. Other alternatives are welcomed. | 14:59 |
| co0n | gbit86, you are talking about this project, right? https://github.com/rbreaves/kinto | 15:01 |
| gbit86 | co0n: Because I am a developer and have a preference for mac style shortcut keys. My Kinto app has pains takingly brought them and converting that into xkbcomp or setxkbmap is a bit of fools errand - I did that at one point early on, but there are much better ways of handling that. Sadly they don't work as well in these virtual keyboard situations. | 15:01 |
| gbit86 | co0n: Yea, it is my project and it is largely based off of the work of xkeysnail which only works with physical devices. Likely due to the libraries it uses. | 15:02 |

| gbit86 | co0n: Kinto did work on setxkbmap and xkbcomp - but all the switching had latency and could even potentially cause instability. It was much harder to make changes and additions to. Whereas xkeysnail is very simple and straight forward in comparison. | 15:03 |
| co0n | gbit86, let's look who else wants to chime in on that. | 15:04 |
| co0n | gbit86, this is just a wild shot, but did you familiarize yourself with the switch from X11 to Wayland? This might give you new tools to work with. Please note that this is me guessing into the blue, I have neither done this research. | 15:06 |
| gbit86 | co0n: I'd love to work with Wayland but as of right now that also brings with it a new set of problems for xkeysnail which heavily relies on wm_class which is easily provided by x11. Wayland offloads that tot he DEs. I have an opened issue ticket to address it eventually on xkeysnail but that is a ways out and will be slow going. Every DE will have to be resolved individually based on their current model. | 15:08 |

| gnoob | Hello, I want to reformat my entire PC and my plan is to install windows to my secondary drive and then install Ubuntu to my primary drive and have it be my main OS. It theory I think I should have no issues but I thought I would ask if I am overlooking something? | 17:10 |
| matsaman | gnoob: yeah | 17:14 |
| matsaman | I'd put Windows on the first drive | 17:15 |
| bittin_ | heya :) | 17:15 |
| matsaman | Ubuntu on second, and let Ubuntu put GRUB on the first | 17:15 |
| matsaman | but either will work | 17:16 |
| gnoob | matsaman, the main drive is an NVME m.2 drive the secondary drive is a HDD laptop. | 17:19 |
| gnoob | so that was my though | 17:19 |
| matsaman | just the order I'm talking about | 17:20 |
| matsaman | doesn't matter which drive is in which order | 17:20 |
| matsaman | I can't actually remember why I suggest Windows be on the first drive | 17:20 |
| matsaman | honestly, I'd just put windows in a vm at this point, if you even need it at all | 17:21 |
| matsaman | you can even pass through GPU access with modern virtualization | 17:21 |
| matsaman | so you could even argue a metal install of windows isn't required even for win32 only games | 17:21 |

| gnoob | matsaman, thanks for the insight. I have debated the VM route. Wonder how that wold work with the license I have. I think it would complain about the hardware no longer matching. | 17:46 |
| matsaman | gnoob: the license for windows? | 17:52 |
| matsaman | I'm not sure it'd care at all about that at this point, but you could probably try these instructions anyway: https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Migrate_Windows#HardDiskSupport | 17:53 |
| matsaman | but you could also just harvest your product key from your install | 17:53 |
| matsaman | and install a completely fresh Windows | 17:53 |
| matsaman | and give it that key | 17:53 |
| matsaman | which is, I think that's actually totally kosher with Microsoft, under many circumstances | 17:53 |
| matsaman | and they won't ever care regardless | 17:53 |
| gnoob | matsaman, yes, the key for windows. I thought in some ways it was tied to the hardware. | 17:54 |
| leftyfb | gnoob: this would be a question for #windows | 17:55 |
| matsaman | gnoob: it has been in the past, as the link I gave states, but I'm not sure it is anymore; easily resolved regardless | 17:55 |
| EriC^^ | gnoob: the key is in the motherboard i believe, but you can find it using ubuntu by typing "sudo strings /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/MSDM" and maybe enter it manually | 17:57 |
| gnoob | Alright, thanks everyone. Will now need to debate how I proceed. | 17:59 |
| gnoob | #windows says that Windows will not have any complaints being on the secondary drive. So that's good, if I go that route. | 18:09 |

| tomreyn | gbit86: i think you need to provide more details, i don't see the relation between usb devices and X sessions | 19:59 |
| tomreyn | (there certainly can be some, but more info is needed nevertheless) | 20:00 |
| === PCplague2 is now known as PCplague | ||
| gbit86 | tomreyn: I have remote sessions going on on different DISPLAY ports - so the relation is that I do not want all of my usb devices attached to DISPLAY :0. I want some of them attached to DISPLAY :10 in the same manner one would do a multiseat environment. I would also like to avoid getting another GPU or setting up Xephyr or whatever other crazy thing.. | 20:01 |
| gbit86 | tomreyn: I really don't think knowing those details really simplifies anything - at the end of the day I need to be able to redirect physical input devices to specific DISPLAY ports. | 20:02 |
| tomreyn | so that's about usb HID's, i guess this cimplifies it already. | 20:03 |
| gbit86 | x2x might work.. but will be annoying - having to drag across screens I cannot see versus being like this is tied directly to this DISPLAY session. | 20:03 |
| pi0 | using cli commands can one determine if a device is usb3? | 20:03 |
| gbit86 | pi0: pretty much yea.. I will have to look up that command though | 20:04 |
| === ossurayynot is now known as tonyyarusso | ||

| pi0 | hmm | 20:10 |
| pi0 | yep not sure if that is the correct way | 20:10 |
| pi0 | spits out all sorts of stuff | 20:10 |
| gbit86 | dude you're looking for this /devices/pci0000:00/XXX/XXX/inputXX | 20:11 |
| gbit86 | and in those XXX's it usually says if it is usb3 or not.. | 20:11 |
| gbit86 | at least it does on mine | 20:11 |
| gbit86 | and there is no correct way.. but you can spend hours trying to decipher sys paths other ways and which device belongs to what if you want. | 20:13 |
| gbit86 | xinput -list is not likely to tell you much | 20:14 |
| gbit86 | there is also evtest | 20:15 |
| tomreyn | lsusb -t may help | 20:15 |
| pi0 | evtest? | 20:16 |
| gbit86 | evtest is a package in the repos | 20:16 |
| gbit86 | tomreyn: So does it simplify things - passing usb hid to a specific display port? | 20:18 |
| gbit86 | I sure can't find that. | 20:18 |
| tommy`` | this audio card will drive me crazy | 20:23 |
| tommy`` | i can't get it working | 20:24 |
| tomreyn | gbit86: no, or not for me. but i mean that knowing that you're referring to a HID rather than, say, a scanner or printer, is making it easier to understand what your goals are. | 20:26 |
| tomreyn | tommy``: audio can be difficult to get right if it's very new or extraordinary. did you try the generic help page on this, yet? | 20:27 |
| tomreyn | !audio | tommy`` | 20:27 |
| ubot3 | tommy``: If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - https://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !players and !mp3. | 20:27 |
| tommy`` | tomreyn: the fact is with some setting inside alsa-base.conf I have audio working, but it doesnt recognize rear or front mic | 20:27 |
| gbit86 | tomreyn: ultimately it is irrelevant on what type of device it is because all I want is a device to be associated with a specific display port. That would be far more useful than some kind of selective hack that words for hid devices. | 20:31 |
| gbit86 | that works* for hid devices | 20:31 |
| tomreyn | gbit86: i don't know how to do it, sorry. just tried to help you ask a more targetted question. but i see your point. | 20:33 |

| tomreyn | gbit86: normally, Xorg / X11 is known to provide everyone access to all input, so i'm not even sure what you initially seemed to describe as your goal, is even possible. i also don't know which ubuntu release and kernel version this is. chances are, you'll have a lot more control on this using (X)Wayland, though. | 21:00 |
| sarnold | matari: most irc clients will let you tab-complete a nickname, try sarn<tab> | 21:00 |
| gbit86 | Wayland isn't happening any time soon. I'd love for it to but you're asking for something that'll be far more complicated than fixing the issue at hand. | 21:04 |
| gbit86 | I know you are trying to be helpful but I am exploiting many features of x11 that wayland just simply doesn't offer and would complicate what I am doing significantly. | 21:05 |
| netnetnet | im a bit ignorant of the details, but does wayland offer a different API than Xorg? I know there are under the hood performance improvements, but is the case that clients on the layer above would need to port to target wayland? | 21:09 |

| sebsebseb | hi | 21:33 |
| gbit86 | omg.. guys. I was asking how do I define my usb hid input via xorg.conf.. that's all it was :/.. | 21:34 |
| braewoods | gbit86: there's almost no need for that today. | 21:39 |
| gbit86 | braewoods: wayland? | 21:40 |
| braewoods | gbit86: why would you need to use xorg.conf for wayland? It's used for X11. | 21:40 |
| braewoods | even with the X11 bridge i can't see why it would be used. | 21:42 |
| gbit86 | braewoods: I am questioning if you are referring to waylanding making xorg.conf and defining things there irrelevant or if you mean that there's an easier way to define hid input devices for remote sessions (multi-user environments - like what I am setting up for myself). | 21:42 |
| braewoods | gbit86: it's largely automatic today so that's why i don't understand why you'd even want to mess with it. | 21:42 |
| gbit86 | I only need 2 users working on this desktop so that I can walk between 2 desks and essentially be doing work on the same computer while logged into 2 different user accounts or same account even if that wouldn't create issues. | 21:43 |
| gbit86 | So I can be natively on my linux desktop and via a remote solution.. it is in the same room, but still I want very specific things to work right and this is a requirement for me. | 21:44 |
| braewoods | so, why not run a second X server for that purpose? | 21:44 |
| braewoods | iirc, there's a VNC variant. | 21:44 |
| gbit86 | VNC is quite slow and unpleasant overall. Setting up the session with xrdp and then following that up with NoMachine is completely flawless.. I have perfect sound, fluid video, extremely response desktop and low latency. | 21:45 |
| gbit86 | There's literally 0 chance of getting any of that with the bear that is VNC. | 21:45 |
| braewoods | if you already have a solution, then what's the problem? | 21:45 |
| gbit86 | VNC over xrdp is an improvement but.. xrdp/xorg w/ NoMachine is ever better lol. | 21:46 |
| gbit86 | I have like 90% of the solution done - I just need my keyboard working right with my Kinto program. That is the issue, I can't remap anything with xrdpkeyboard driver going.. | 21:47 |
| braewoods | so, you need CJK or so input to work? | 21:48 |
| gry | gbit86: you know of x2go? | 21:48 |
| braewoods | i'm missing what's actually *not* working | 21:48 |
| braewoods | when i've had to remap keys for specific devices i've always used the hw database | 21:49 |
| braewoods | usually for laptop special keys | 21:49 |
| gbit86 | If x2go works like x2x then it won't work.. virtual devices need not apply and even creating a usb type device doesn't help much if it misses the display port I am on.. also specifying the display port w/ x2x was there - but again it misses the keymapper so not very helpful in the end. | 21:49 |
| gbit86 | My key remapper is very dynamic - unlike most static remappers. Leverages x11 and wm_class constantly. kinto.sh for those interested. It will not work with your typical xkbcomp or xmodmap solutions. | 21:50 |
| braewoods | gbit86: well the only other way i know of to remap keys is at the low level with udev or kernel level drivers | 21:52 |
| gbit86 | kinto => xkeysnail => x11/udev/uinput | 21:53 |
| gbit86 | that's what you are looking at pretty much. | 21:53 |
| gbit86 | it is happening on a low level but I am pulling in other information so that I can make sure you get the right custom remaps without having to always make them global. You can do it in groups or specific application, all happens in layers so that you essentially make the fewest remaps possible. You get broad coverage and specific remaps at the same time. | 21:55 |
| gbit86 | My main goal is handle all remaps in a single config or application.. I hate doing remaps per application. | 21:56 |

| gbit86 | So I am half way.. I have been able to block my keyboard from loading on the normal user session - but it will not load up for xrdp xorg sessions still :/ | 23:18 |
| chilversc | any one know why nfsd would be running statx and re-reading /etc/mtab for every single exported mount when a client is doing a simple ls? | 23:25 |

| gbit86 | Anyone here have any experience with updating the xorg.conf file to pass in any type of usb device to an xrdp session? It'd be a huge help to hear from someone that experience with modifying this file "/etc/X11/xrdp/xorg.conf". I only seem to hang up my login when I give it the same settings that work for a normal xorg session. | 23:50 |
