| spinull | wtf is net-tools not installed by default anymore | 02:18 |
| spinull | nobody wants to use the ip command | 02:18 |
| tomreyn | spinull: "ip" is part of iproute2 - which i do think is installed by default in all configurations | 02:25 |
| spinull | not what i asked | 02:25 |
| tomreyn | you did not actually ask a question anyways ;) | 02:26 |
| spinull | literally 4 lines up | 02:26 |
| spinull | (09:18:31 PM) spinull: wtf is net-tools not installed by default anymore | 02:26 |
| Bashing-om | spinull: The modern replacement for net-tools is iproute2 <- https://www.tecmint.com/deprecated-linux-networking-commands-and-their-replacements/ . | 02:29 |
| spinull | why did they need replacing, everyone knows them and they work well | 02:33 |
| sarnold | they didn't work well, there were loads of networking features that couldn't be reached via those tools | 02:34 |
| leftyfb | spinull: why did they replace steam powered locomotives? Everyone knew them and they worked well | 02:34 |
| sarnold | that's why they were replaced twenty years ago with iproute2 tools | 02:34 |
| spinull | like what/ | 02:35 |
| tomreyn | https://lwn.net/Articles/710533/ | 02:36 |
| spinull | also, if this is going to be what we have to use now, at least clean up the output, this is ugly af an not easily parsed | 02:36 |
| sarnold | spinull: try ip -c a etc, that may be easier | 02:36 |
| spinull | thats pretty | 02:37 |
| spinull | ty | 02:37 |
| sarnold | the format's not going to be changed, specifically because loads of people parse these things :) | 02:37 |

| ash_worksi | I guess I have to create a new keyring? | 04:03 |
| ash_worksi | I mean, I have no idea why it would have diverted (at some point) from the login password | 04:03 |
| ash_worksi | so, if I have no idea, then I simply cannot use that keyring and have to delete it, right? | 04:03 |

| ubottu | blackthunder: hi!: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 05:38 |
| madduck | tomreyn: a good 10% of packets dropped on RX for the iface! | 05:39 |
| madduck | same for wlan | 05:40 |
| tomreyn | that's less than i assumed, but more than it should be | 05:40 |
| blackthunder | ok, so here's my problem, i installed brave web browser on ubuntu ofc,the browser is opening, but it's icon is not loading. any solutions | 05:40 |
| tomreyn | madduck: maybe the routers' ethernet port is just bad? did you try a different one? | 05:41 |
| madduck | oh! | 05:42 |
| madduck | you know, I've been ruling that out because it's the same for wifi and cable, but I remember now that the wifi access point is actually separate from the fritzbox | 05:43 |
| tomreyn | blackthunder: since this browser isn't part of ubuntu, so i'm not sure we can help with unexpected behaviour it exposes. try thier support channel, or a web search. | 05:44 |
| madduck | except the other devices in the network don't seem to have any problem, so the LAN port may not be the issue. But maybe the cable is… | 05:45 |
| tomreyn | madduck: it's indeed surprising that the laptop would have 10% RX dropped on both ethernet and wireless chipsets. i'm wondering whether this could be explained by issues with context switching, mainbard / CPU problems | 05:47 |
| madduck | tomreyn: I thought about this too, but IPv6 works just fine. | 05:49 |
| tomreyn | did you inspect dmesg / journalctl -b -p4 though? | 05:49 |
| tomreyn | ipv6 working fine does seem to rule this out, yes, but maybe not 100% | 05:50 |
| tomreyn | i'm just as clueless as you, if not more, thouigh. ;) | 05:52 |
| tomreyn | maybe #networking folks have another perspective on this | 05:53 |

| alkisg | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_console => ctrl+alt+f1 or 2 etc up to 8 | 07:22 |

| alkisg | Regarding WoL, hat's the output of `sudo ethtool enp2s0` or however your interface is called? | 07:35 |
| manmohangill | alkisg, the issue lies with xorg server | 07:41 |
| manmohangill | it is a known issue for 10 over years | 07:41 |
| alkisg | manmohangill: in the URL that you linked, it says: Clearly, they changed something between 20.10 and 21.04 that's affecting this. | 07:42 |
| alkisg | So it was working for him in 20.10 | 07:42 |
| alkisg | Did you find a bug report in xorg for this issue? If not, it would make sense to file one | 07:43 |
| alkisg | And, if it was working in the past, it would make sense to see when it stopped working | 07:43 |
| madduck | tomreyn: we plugged it in elsewhere and there is no issue. So it's either a defective cable or switch. What a ride. Thanks for thinking along. | 07:52 |
| madduck | Debugging network problems from Wellington, New Zealand, via a OpenVPN link over IPv6 from my mum's laptop in Munich Germany is just fun. I have no other machine I can connect to in that network. Fun times. | 07:54 |

| alkisg | Btw, you're using xorg, not wayland yet, right? | 09:00 |

| manmohangill | dude | 09:05 |
| manmohangill | the issue has been around since xorg era | 09:06 |
| alkisg | Yes, but wayland doesn't use xorg | 09:06 |
| manmohangill | what has wayland got to do with this | 09:06 |
| manmohangill | okay so the issue isnt fixed in wayland either | 09:06 |
| alkisg | It needs a different bug report and a different workaround | 09:06 |
| manmohangill | no one will fixed it | 09:06 |
| alkisg | Right, if what you're reporting is accurate, the bug also affects wayland in a different code base | 09:06 |
| alkisg | In any case, that's what you need to do. People stopped working on xorg, but they still work on wayland | 09:07 |
| alkisg | So there's a good chance it'll be fixed there | 09:07 |
| alkisg | Or, they may at least give you a workaround | 09:07 |
| manmohangill | well how do I file a bug report then? | 09:07 |

| manmohangill | Filed | 09:20 |
| manmohangill | hope something can be done it is more then 10 years and no idea which genius would think it would be a good idea to compare with a typewriters | 09:20 |
| manmohangill | they closed my issue | 09:26 |
| manmohangill | what | 09:26 |
| lotuspsychje | manmohangill: if a developer closes the bug, he would have a reason for it, best not to start a bug fight | 09:29 |
| manmohangill | so the issue becomes like xorg and get abandon for years ? | 09:29 |
| oldgalileo | Is there _any_ reason for listing other architectures in an apt repository in a .list? | 09:30 |
| oldgalileo | e.g. `deb [arch=arm64,armhf,ppc64el,s390x]` | 09:30 |
| oldgalileo | if I know I'm only going to be running on arm64, there would be zero reason to list the others, right? | 09:30 |
| manmohangill | so who do I report this to ? | 09:30 |
| tomreyn | oldgalileo: correct | 09:31 |
| tomreyn | or let's say: i can't think of a reason either | 09:31 |
| manmohangill | hope someone can point to me the right direction | 09:31 |
| oldgalileo | tomreyn: lol had to get sanity checked. someone went in behind me and added in those other architecturres | 09:31 |
| lotuspsychje | manmohangill: you just have another reply on your bug | 09:31 |
| manmohangill | yeah I saw so what is the issue | 09:31 |
| oldgalileo | tomreyn: thanks! 👍 | 09:31 |
| tomreyn | oldgalileo: you're welcome | 09:31 |
| manmohangill | I dont get it there should be a team that handle this | 09:32 |
| manmohangill | just want to get it fixed | 09:32 |
| lotuspsychje | manmohangill: if its indeed a gnome issue, you could browse gnome-shell bugs about it | 09:32 |
| lotuspsychje | or file a new bug, (if) you find the specific cause/package | 09:33 |
| oldgalileo | tomreyn: Huh. What effect does declaring the architecture actually have on apt? | 09:33 |
| oldgalileo | tomreyn: While cleaning that up I noticed we had left another repository as amd64 instead of arm64, but have never run into issue | 09:34 |
| oldgalileo | issues | 09:34 |
| shailangsa | does anyknow when https://pastebin.com/2WhTZv5g returns an error with "/home/admin1/treble_experimentations/apply-patches.sh: line 11: pushd: patches: No such file or directory" is the non existen directory /patches/, /build/ or /build/make/? | 09:34 |
| manmohangill | lotuspsychje, it was a xorgserver issue | 09:34 |
| manmohangill | if you guys aint using xorgserver so what else is causing this issue | 09:35 |
| tomreyn | oldgalileo: it can make sense on multi-architecture systems, such as amd64+i686 | 09:35 |
| tomreyn | oldgalileo: there may also be scenarios where it makes sense to use this to be able to (just) download packages for other architectures. | 09:36 |
| manmohangill | this is exact issue | 09:37 |
| manmohangill | https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27903 | 09:37 |
| tomreyn | shailangsa: for help with bash, /join #bash | 09:37 |
| oldgalileo | tomreyn: Sure, I guess I'm confused why I didn't run into issues when I had a repository setup to only be amd64 even though I'm running on an ARM machine | 09:38 |
| tomreyn | oldgalileo: oh that's because apt will take the dpkg architecture into account, i guess, and won't just blindly download and try to install packages for other architectures. | 09:39 |
| manmohangill | :( | 09:39 |
| lotuspsychje | manmohangill: a 2010 bug... resolved, fixed? | 09:40 |
| manmohangill | it was never resloved and fixed | 09:40 |

| oldgalileo | tomreyn: Yeah, makes sense that it wouldn't blindly try. Surprised it didn't throw warnings though. | 09:44 |
| tomreyn | oldgalileo: setting it in sources.list basically just means "hey apt, this is available for this architecture, and this other architecture, too, in case you'll ever need it". | 09:45 |
| tomreyn | oldgalileo: oh you're saying you had "amd64" set on a system that is actually an "arm64" system? and you think ti was still used to find arm64 packages? this seems unlikely to me. | 09:46 |
| tomreyn | more likely this repository was just not taken into account then, because it does not match the host architecture. | 09:47 |

| moha | I had an ssd (windows was installed there) and an HDD (Drive D); Last night I installed Ubuntu instead of Windows10 on SSD (LVM); Now, as much as I try to mount the sda2 (previousely drive D), I failed. before installing ubuntu, I didn't change fast boot or somethig like that in windows. I tried all solution on askubuntu, help.ubuntu.com and blog posts, but all failed | 09:52 |
| moha | The drive mounts READ only | 09:52 |
| moha | I even can not `chmode -R 777` on the partition! | 09:53 |
| tomreyn | oldgalileo: hmm, not sure then. maybe i misunderstood the concept of indicating architectures in apt sources. you could read up on the bit of documentation about it that's in sources.list(5), or review the apt source code on how it handles this, or ask in a debian channel, too. | 09:53 |
| moha | chmod: changing permissions of '/data/ToDo/friday.xlsx': Read-only file system | 09:53 |
| tomreyn | moha: which filesystem is on sda2? | 09:55 |
| moha | it's ntfs. a 1-TB partition. | 09:56 |
| tomreyn | NTFS support on Ubuntu isn't feature complete. If the current NTFS drivers detect that an NTFS file system is marked as 'dirty' (needs a file system check / repairing) it will mount it read-only. | 09:57 |
| tomreyn | there is ntfsfix, but it is not complete, and the developers recommend you use checkdsk on windows instead. | 09:58 |
| tomreyn | what you can do is transfer the data to a different file system which is fully supported. | 09:58 |
| moha | more details: https://p.teknik.io/wnB8T | 10:00 |
| moha | :'( | 10:01 |
| tomreyn | don't be sad. if you have more questions, just ask. | 10:01 |
| moha | what I want is to just write there; Seems there's no solution except moving data and formating to ext4 | 10:02 |
| moha | thanx | 10:02 |
| tomreyn | there are other options, but they will risk data loss. if loosing data is a risk that's easy for you to take, you can try your luck with ntfsfix, for example. | 10:03 |

| coreyfarrell | I'm dealing with a build process that does not yet support ubuntu >18.04 but I also need lcov 1.14. is there any way to install this version of lcov into a docker container based on ubuntu:18.04? | 11:23 |
| summonner | coreyfarrell, are you asking how to put an application into a docker? | 11:30 |
| coreyfarrell | `apt install lcov` from ubuntu 18.04 installs lcov 1.13 but I need 1.14. asking if there is a way to get apt to find the updated version of that one package. | 11:32 |
| summonner | the github page for the app has instructions on doing what you want | 11:33 |
| lotuspsychje | coreyfarrell: try !backports !pinning or proposed? | 11:38 |
| coreyfarrell | looks like lcov isn't backported. I will work on getting it installed without using apt. thanks for the info. | 11:47 |

| manmohangill | hi guys | 12:06 |
| manmohangill | If you're using X11 clients via Xwayland, maybe the bug is in Xorg still, and not in any of the Wayland components. | 12:06 |
| manmohangill | is there anyway to get off X11 Clients ? | 12:06 |
| manmohangill | or check if Ubuntu 21.04 is using them | 12:06 |
| BluesKaj | Hi all | 12:21 |
| alkisg | coreyfarrell: you may try to download and install the .deb from there: https://packages.ubuntu.com/focal/lcov; note that since the version was bumped manually, you might miss security updates | 12:29 |
| rbasak | It's not "might". You *will* miss all security updates to that package. | 12:32 |
| alkisg | No, there 's a chance that the new version will have a higher number :) | 12:32 |
| alkisg | And there's a chance that there won't be any security updates too | 12:33 |
| alkisg | And there's a chance that the user will keep an eye on updates via other means, and won't miss them (the same e.g. as if he had installed lcov manually without .deb) | 12:35 |
| rbasak | There's virtually no chance that the new version will have a higher number. | 12:36 |
| rbasak | I'm just saying that "you might miss security updates" isn't sufficient to make your recommendation acceptable. On its own, it's bad advice. | 12:37 |
| alkisg | I still think it's always better than "no solution", or "install a local lcov without using a .deb"; that too, won't receive security updates | 12:38 |
| rbasak | Fine, but it should always come with a warning that security updates *stop*. | 12:42 |
| rbasak | Saying "might" is excessively optimistic and dangerous. | 12:42 |
| alkisg | rbasak: It's a 18.04 universe package; it stopped receiving security updates anyway... but OK as you wish. I can't say "stop" as it's a lie, so I'll just not mention that option at all instead... | 12:45 |
| rbasak | alkisg: "it stopped receiving security updates anyway" -> that's not strictly true. Anyone can contribute a security update to any package in Ubuntu, including a package in universe. | 12:47 |
| ioria | not sure a bionic pkg will install on focal (an upper libc); maybe the contrary might work | 12:47 |
| alkisg | ioria: He's looking for the opposite, focal pkg on bionic | 12:48 |
| ioria | i mean : not sure a focal pkg will install on bionic (an upper libc); maybe the contrary might work | 12:48 |
| ioria | :þ | 12:48 |
| rbasak | "it's a lie" -> it's really not. Of course _everything_ receives a "security update" *if you provide one yourself*. That's a given, and doesn't need to be explained. When we say "doesn't receive security updates" we unambigiously mean "won't receive security updates *from the distribution*. | 12:48 |
| alkisg | rbasak: your previous sentences contradict the last one. A couple of days ago you said "there are no guarantees in version numbers", i.e. it's possible that a security patch may bump the version number. In the previous sentence you said "anyone can contribute a security update". And in the last one "no security updates will come" | 12:51 |
| alkisg | I have the utmost respect to the debian policy and the repo guidelines, but I can't tell lies. But sure, I'll just stop mentioning that alternative and leave the users to manually compile things instead of using .debs | 12:52 |
| Guest22 | Can someone help me repairing Grub2 for an UEFI system? https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/6XrX7FcJkH/ | 12:53 |
| Guest22 | Boot-Repair caused the computer to boot into a grub2 (not rescue) prompt | 12:54 |
| rbasak | Anyone can contribute a security update to lcov in Bionic. But a correct security update to lcov in Bionic will not be received by a user who has hacked in Focal's version. Yes, it's possible that lcov will receive a major version bump because a security update requires it, and then the update will arrive to such a hacked system, but that's vanishingly unlikely. | 12:54 |
| rbasak | If you want to explain that in full, then feel free. | 12:55 |
| alkisg | In my understanding of human languages, that's a "might", not a "won't". | 12:55 |
| rbasak | No, that's based on your understanding of logic, not human language. | 12:55 |
| alkisg | If there was a wiki page about it, or a factoid, I'd happily link to it, but I don't want to spend the time to write one | 12:55 |
| rbasak | I'm not about to find myself wherever you are to argue this with you in person. However, according to our current understanding of physics there is a miniscule but finite and non-zero probability that it will happen. But in human language, it's an absolute that it won't happen. | 12:56 |

| rob | Can anyone give any tips for diagnosing recurrent freezes? /var/crash is empty. Typically these freezes seem to be associated with pasting something into terminal. | 15:45 |
| iLinux-OS-User | What are you pasting? | 15:46 |
| rob | Any old thing will do it. Short strings of text etc. | 15:46 |
| iLinux-OS-User | We can't give you a solution if we don't have the code! | 15:47 |
| tomreyn | rob: run journalctl -f in a terminal, then reproduce it, and see what is logged (if anything) | 15:48 |
| rob | There isn't any code. It's just arbitrary text. | 15:48 |
| iLinux-OS-User | Except this, all else works fine? | 15:48 |
| TJ- | rob: one possibilty is one of those terminals that intercepts pastes and is supposed to display a dialog box and ask for your OK to actually paste. Maybe that is configured but the dialog isn't appearing, or is hidden, or similar? | 15:49 |
| TJ- | oops, rob pasted himself out! | 15:49 |
| tomreyn | and tell us about your ubuntu version, desktop, terminal, graphics driver, available memory (free -m) | 15:50 |
| rob | iLinux-OS-User I just got hit with another freeze when I pasted your suggestion! | 15:50 |
| TJ- | rob: one possibilty is one of those terminals that intercepts pastes and is supposed to display a dialog box and ask for your OK to actually paste. Maybe that is configured but the dialog isn't appearing, or is hidden, or similar? | 15:51 |
| TJ- | rob: which Ubuntu flavour (desktop environment), which release (e.g. 20.04), which terminal emulator? | 15:51 |
| rob | Interesting thought. Not sure what would have brought that on all of a sudden though. No obvious config change. | 15:51 |
| rob | iLinux-OS-User: would you mind repeating your suggestion? I lost those lines with the last freeze. | 15:52 |
| tomreyn | rob: i don't think they made a suggestion. i made this: <tomreyn> rob: run journalctl -f in a terminal, then reproduce it, and see what is logged (if anything) | 15:53 |
| rob | Ah ha. Yes, that was it. Thanks | 15:54 |
| iLinux-OS-User | Except this, all else works fine? | 15:55 |
| rob | Yes as far as I can see | 15:55 |
| rob | Just trying to reproduce it with journalctl then will come back with more details if I successfully get a freeze. | 15:56 |
| rob | Ah ha well it's certainly not consistent. Pasting into terminal is fine currently. | 15:57 |
| ioria | rob you should check (or paste, if you want) /var/log/syslog | 15:57 |

| rob | Not yet; using the default terminal at present. I *am* using zsh, which is obviously a bit less stable than bash... | 16:07 |
| jabberwock | less stable? | 16:08 |
| rob | Well, maybe not itself, but a typical installation has a bunch of plugins maintained by third parties with all that comes with that. | 16:09 |
| jabberwock | fair | 16:11 |

| TJ- | rob: I don't use Gnome but I know Canonical stuff some of the core Gnome files into snaps so I'm wondering if there is some bad interaction there | 16:18 |
| rob | Sounds like a potentially risky strategy. Any idea how to look into this further? | 16:20 |
| rob | The more I think about it the more suspicious of zsh plugins I'm getting. Going to try disabling them all. | 16:21 |
| kilzool | I have Mozilla Thunderbird for email.. and use it for email only. When I right click, I have to keep the right click down, and slide the mouse to the entry.. It doesn't work like other apps, inwhich right click opens the menu and keeps it open until you click. | 16:22 |

| BinarySavior | so sorry | 16:24 |
| rob | Haha. I thought that was cryptic. | 16:24 |
| tomreyn | kilzool: that's not how it normally is, or should be. | 16:25 |
| tomreyn | kilzool: which ubuntu release is this? which desktop? | 16:26 |
| kilzool | 20.04 lts | 16:28 |
| kilzool | well if you use FILE to open document folder and right click it doesn't close the window when you release the right mouse, Thunderbird does. | 16:30 |
| tomreyn | kilzool: yours does, but i'm saying that's not what it normally does. | 16:31 |
| TJ- | kilzool: I cannot reproduce that; which Thunderbird version are you using? | 16:31 |
| kilzool | I am trying the other one listed in apps.. hold on | 16:32 |
| kilzool | All fixed. | 16:33 |
| kilzool | There are apparently two thunderbirds in the app list (gnome) -- so removing one and adding the other fixed the problem. | 16:34 |
| tomreyn | maybe that was a snap | 16:34 |
| kilzool | prolly ty tomreyn | 16:41 |
| tomreyn | kilzool: i didn't do a lot ;) | 16:41 |
| kilzool | hehe | 16:42 |
| rob | To those helping me with the freezes problem -- no freezes for a while now after disabling zsh plugins. Looks like that was the culprit. | 16:45 |
| jabberwock | I'm curious to know which plugin was the culprot | 16:48 |
| jabberwock | culprit | 16:48 |
| rob | Yeah me too. May look into it in more detail later when I have more time. Got to go do childcare now. Thanks! | 16:55 |

| Guest4750 | what for a version you use? | 19:01 |
| chibill[m] | The output from uname -a says the following, Linux hambook 5.11.0-25-generic #27~20.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jul 13 17:41:23 UTC 2021 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux | 19:02 |
| chibill[m] | Thats how I normally get the version btw | 19:02 |
| Guest4750 | https://itsfoss.com/fix-sound-ubuntu-1304-quick-tip/ | 19:06 |
| chibill[m] | Not the issue, literally PulseAudio is not running because it errors on start. | 19:09 |
| sarnold | ah nice what's the error? | 19:09 |
| ice9 | in xorg, gnome settings show 120 hz for the display but in wayland it's just 60 hz, any idea? | 19:10 |
| TJ- | chibill[m]: check the log " journalctl --user -u pulseaudio " | 19:10 |
| TJ- | ice9: Wayland compositor is twice as slow? | 19:11 |
| ice9 | TJ-, it's now slow it's running fine but i mean the reported refresh rate | 19:11 |
| TJ- | ice9: I was attempting to crack a joke :) | 19:12 |
| ice9 | ah :D | 19:12 |
| TJ- | ice9: I've not touched Wayland compositors so not sure what the equivalent tool to 'xrandr' would be to check on what the displays report over EDID | 19:13 |
| chibill[m] | https://pastebin.com/xBvRgCTr is one of the log entries. Not much in journalctl for pulseaudio. Also using pastebin because I don't have a Ubuntu One account and not sure why its needed not to use the recommend way of sharing logs. | 19:18 |
| i-garrison | chibill[m]: it does not look like it fails; first it is started then after 8min it exited with your desktop session, which looks normal | 19:24 |
| chibill[m] | Yet it can't be accessed by applications / can't see my audio devices. While ALSA can and pusleaudio was also before a reboot about a month ago. | 19:26 |
| sarnold | chibill[m]: the standard journalctl output to a terminal truncates the output :( note the "Possible causes inc>" | 19:26 |
| sarnold | chibill[m]: it's entirely possible that the actual cause is just cut off -- try journalctl -u pulseaudio.service | cat or | nc termbin.com 9999 or similar | 19:27 |
| i-garrison | chibill[m]: sarnold: that error message is from bluetooth part which is probably not an issue | 19:28 |
| sarnold | ah | 19:29 |
| i-garrison | chibill[m]: please check if you can access pulseaudio daemon with 'pactl info' and pastebin the output | 19:29 |
| chibill[m] | I had a better error last time I tried to get help but thats gone. (Expired in paste.ubuntu.com also was before the login change) I stopped looking to a sollution after talking here over an hour and finding out that using ALSA with out pulseaudio involved still worked. Just had to find the correct device name. | 19:29 |

| chibill[m] | Connection failure: Connection refused | 19:30 |
| chibill[m] | pa_context_connect() failed: Connection refused | 19:30 |
| i-garrison | chibill[m]: do you run that from desktop environment? | 19:31 |
| chibill[m] | Yes, I am currently logged in on a desktop. | 19:31 |
| i-garrison | chibill[m]: please run pa-info and either pastebin the output if you do not mind, or just first pulseaudio_ps_do section from that | 19:33 |
| chibill[m] | https://pastebin.com/f3ThWHU8 | 19:36 |
| i-garrison | chibill[m]: there is an instance running since Aug 14th, is that expected? if not, try killing it with 'pulseaudio -k' or 'kill -9 831' | 19:38 |
| chibill[m] | That was the last reboot so I would assume it should still be running. Unless it isn't supposed to be running the sound server all the time. | 19:39 |
| TJ- | chibill[m]: looks to me like you've got a RDP service grabbed it | 19:40 |
| i-garrison | even if "grabbed" pulseaudio server should still be responding to pactl info | 19:41 |
| chibill[m] | I use Chrome Remote Desktop to get into my netbook remotely. (I use it for my hamradio shack.) Just to be noted it was already and used before PulseAudio decided to just kick the bucket. | 19:41 |
| TJ- | i-garrison: not if it's blocking in kernel. chibill[m] show us "ps -efly | grep pulse | nc termbin.com 9999 " | 19:42 |
| chibill[m] | btw just killed that copy of pulseaudio that was running. Starting to wonder if maybe chrome remote starts its own which keeps the systems one from starting. | 19:43 |
| chibill[m] | https://termbin.com/dwqe | 19:43 |
| chibill[m] | Seems it restarted it self after I killed it. | 19:43 |
| i-garrison | chibill[m]: yes it is getting restarted automatically; do you have 'pactl info' running successfully now? | 19:44 |
| chibill[m] | nope, still no connection. I think its because that instance is told not to be a daemon in its command. | 19:44 |
| i-garrison | chibill[m]: no, that's ok - that is how systemd is managing it | 19:45 |
| chibill[m] | Thats weird and backwards compared to most shared server type things. | 19:46 |
| i-garrison | chibill[m]: it's per your user session so not really shared | 19:46 |
| i-garrison | chibill[m]: please pastebin all output of this command 'PULSE_LOG=4 pactl info' | 19:46 |
| chibill[m] | Thats even weirder. Would expect the audio library of a system to be shared across the whole system just like the network stack is. | 19:47 |
| TJ- | chibill[m]: what does "groups" report ? | 19:48 |
| === em is now known as emme | ||
| chibill[m] | https://pastebin.com/3dxgsLM6 | 19:48 |
| i-garrison | chibill[m]: it can be run in system-wide configuration but that is not really recommended way to use it | 19:48 |
| chibill[m] | kd9kck adm dialout cdrom sudo dip plugdev lpadmin lxd sambashare | 19:48 |
| i-garrison | TJ-: you do not need audio group with systemd-logind | 19:49 |
| sarnold | I wonder if that "failed to open..." message is part of pulse refusing to start | 19:49 |
| musshal | how to access ssh aws in terminal ubuntu? | 19:49 |
| sarnold | musshal: can you rephrase your question? | 19:49 |
| chibill[m] | And audio works with ALSA fine and was working with PulseAudio fine for a long while. Then just like stopped working. (This was the cause of the last reinstall I did as well because no one could figure it out at the time.) | 19:50 |
| TJ- | chibill[m]: " find /home/kd9kck/.config/chrome-remote-desktop/pulseaudio#6aa63275cd/ -ls | nc termbin.com 9999 " | 19:52 |
| i-garrison | I think this is bad interaction with chrome-remote-desktop, e.g. https://askubuntu.com/questions/963756/installing-google-chrome-remote-desktop-messed-up-my-box | 19:52 |
| chibill[m] | https://termbin.com/12f5 | 19:52 |
| chibill[m] | Weird thing is it was working fine with Chrome remote desktop for over 5 months | 19:53 |
| TJ- | there's your issue; alternate configs and a missing control socket | 19:53 |
| chibill[m] | Wonder if it had an update. | 19:53 |
| chibill[m] | And did that. | 19:53 |
| TJ- | chibill[m]: I wonder if chrome-remote-desktop symlinked the usualy default.pa/daemon.conf to that location | 19:54 |
| i-garrison | chibill[m]: maybe you did looked at c-r-d audio config and that rewrote the stuff.. | 19:55 |
| TJ- | chibill[m]: show us " systemctl --user cat pulseaudio.service | nc termbin.com 9999 " | 19:56 |
| i-garrison | chibill[m]: please pastebin 'xprop -root | grep ^PULSE_' | 19:57 |
| chibill[m] | I will see if I can figure something out in a bit. Have to go now. (Going to be new car shopping with my parents.) | 19:57 |
| TJ- | I hope its horn isn't using PulseAudio ! | 19:58 |

| bitblit | so what does a basic local-only mail setup look like on ubuntu, so you can check root email and get cron notifications. quite a few packages provide mail, mailx, sendmail. doesn't look like mail even comes with the default install.. | 20:11 |
| hoppity | bitblit: I setup a local system yesterday, you need to install mailutils and the installer will ask you whether this is for local only, say yes and you are golden | 20:12 |
| bitblit | hoppity: thanks, taking a look at it. | 20:17 |

| gneeriiloeepdeer | is it a sign that something's wrong if my computer needs 12 seconds to load a second SSD? | 20:50 |
| gneeriiloeepdeer | no external, but internally connected | 20:50 |
| Loshki | gneeriiloeepdeer: I would look at the SMART data next, if SSDs have it | 20:53 |
| fukua11 | пиздец. | 21:04 |
| TJ- | gneeriiloeepdeer: check the kernel log " journalctl -k -p warning" for clues | 21:07 |
| gneeriiloeepdeer | TJ-, [Firmware Bug]: TSC ADJUST differs within socket(s), fixing all errors. Has the problem been solved? | 21:09 |
| TJ- | gneeriiloeepdeer: doesn't sound to be related to the SSD | 21:15 |
| TJ- | gneeriiloeepdeer: how are you determining this 12 seconds? | 21:15 |
| TJ- | gneeriiloeepdeer: do you mean using a GUI file-manager it takes 12 seconds to show content of a file-system on that SSD when you click on the file-system label to mount it? | 21:16 |
| gneeriiloeepdeer | it's an encrypted ssd, the time passed brtween writing the password and seeing the content are 12 seconds, from the gui | 21:20 |
| TJ- | gneeriiloeepdeer: then that is expected | 21:23 |
| TJ- | gneeriiloeepdeer: complexity time to unwrap the passphrase is set to prevent brute-force attachs | 21:24 |
| TJ- | attacks, too | 21:24 |
| gneeriiloeepdeer | curious, this didn't happen before upgrading to 21.04 | 21:24 |
| gneeriiloeepdeer | afaik... | 21:24 |
| osoldatov | okay, anyone here? | 21:41 |
| yukiup | hi | 21:41 |
| shimbles | is there a tool like iotop, but shows a plot of disk throughput over time | 21:45 |
| yukiup | doubt it | 21:46 |
| sarnold | shimbles: maybe .. https://github.com/brendangregg/bpf-perf-tools-book/blob/master/originals/Ch09_Disks/biopattern.bt | 21:50 |
| sarnold | I've seen things that were much fancier than that.. | 21:51 |
| shimbles | how about for the CLI | 21:57 |
| shimbles | i guess i will just use iotop's batch mode and make a plot | 21:58 |
| cbreak | shimbles: check out bpytop | 22:09 |
| cbreak | https://github.com/aristocratos/bpytop | 22:09 |
| shimbles | that's cool. having 1 ssh session per htop/iotop/iftop/etc is annoying, plus they all kind of suck | 22:10 |
| cbreak | I'm not using it for IO, but I think it can show it | 22:10 |
| shimbles | i added a feature request https://github.com/aristocratos/bpytop/issues/346 | 22:15 |
| ubottu | Issue 346 in aristocratos/bpytop "[REQUEST] Seekwatcher" [Open] | 22:15 |
| cbreak | what I use to monitor IO is "munin" | 22:17 |
| shimbles | If I use a gui the world's my toaster | 22:18 |
| cbreak | but it's not really comparable to iotop, neither in how it works nor what it shows | 22:18 |

| plujon | Greetings; I'm using 20.04 LTS and Wayland, and I'd like to make a screencast of a VM on my desktop. | 22:25 |
| plujon | I tried using recordmydesktop, but the video portion was mostly black. I could see the mouse move, but not the virtualbox window. | 22:25 |
| sarnold | oh interesting | 22:26 |
| moha | Is it usual for a software, running by Wine, using totally more than 25% of CPU? (ref: https://u.teknik.io/jS7LV.png) | 22:26 |
| plujon | I don't know how to make the default screen recorder record only a single window and not my entire desktop. | 22:26 |
| leftyfb | plujon: https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2016/08/peek-desktop-gif-screen-recorder-linux | 22:26 |
| leftyfb | plujon: it's meant for making gifs, but it can do mp4 as well | 22:26 |
| cbreak | 256 color 2 fps mp4s? :) | 22:28 |
| moha | plujon: try with obs-studio | 22:29 |
| cbreak | VLC can stream your desktop... not sure if it can store it into a file though... | 22:32 |
| shimbles | ffmpeg | 22:36 |
| plujon | Peek looks like it works okay. I'll try recording a webm and adding sound using audacity. | 22:41 |
| plujon | I wonder what a good choice is for sampling rate for voice.. | 22:44 |
