mov_eax | is anyone having an OOM issue with lightdm onn 21.04? usually upon login? | 00:08 |
---|---|---|
mov_eax | ran an apport-retrace -g on it /var/crash log and it's a memory issue | 00:09 |
mov_eax | digging through the net, basically confirmed that this *was* an issue way back in 14.04, but nothing of recent | 00:09 |
mov_eax | there were no proposed solutions though. just the reporting | 00:10 |
Croran | Are there any good strategies for avoiding the annoying entries in 'df' that are caused by snaps? | 00:25 |
shimbles | df -ha | grep -v snap | 00:30 |
mov_eax | found the bug, it's upstream. lightdm is leaking mem like a sieve. changed to gdm and issues went away. now off to see if this issue has been reported | 00:41 |
kevr | Okay, so the real issue is that now, udev is NOT setting up any audio devices. I'm not sure what the hell, because I didn't do _anything_ with udev | 00:41 |

krickit | Hello, trying to get my wifi working on a new install, on linux mint the fix was to install linux-oem-osp1, but using ubuntu 20.04 it tells me that it doesn't exist. I downloaded a .deb of it as well and it said not supported. Kernel is 5.11, I think mint might have been 5.13? | 03:19 |
krickit | I also tried installing linux-oem-20.04, but it didn't change anything, unless there's something else I need to do there> | 03:19 |
guiverc | krickit, the package you mention is there `linux-oem-osp1 | 5.4.0.81.85 | focal-updates | amd64 | 03:22 |
guiverc | ` but you're using the HWE kernel and it's for GA | 03:22 |
krickit | I don't know what those are. How would I change kernel? Or is there a different version of the package for HWE? | 03:26 |
Bashing-om | !HWE | krickit | 03:27 |
ubottu | krickit: The Ubuntu LTS enablement stacks provide newer kernel and X support for existing LTS releases, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack | 03:27 |
krickit | Okay, I'll try the downgrade listed there, thanks for the help | 03:28 |
frazer | Hey guys | 03:38 |
shimbles | so far my system has 17,289 packages installed | 03:39 |
shimbles | we are on the road to a complete Ubuntu system, finally! | 03:39 |
frazer | Theres always another package to install | 03:39 |
frazer | its never ending | 03:40 |
shimbles | i doubt i will able to install all packages; some of them are mutually exclusive of eachother | 03:40 |
frazer | very true but you can atleast try lol | 03:40 |
shimbles | however, I think I have come up with a method to install as many as possible | 03:40 |
frazer | Im working on a project right now where I'm running ubuntu VMs in the cloud for gaming, any advice on how to go about it? | 03:41 |
frazer | each time ive tried ive hit a brickwall with error after error | 03:42 |
shimbles | you can do that on AWS; use the nvidia drivers they link to in the documentation, with the recommended instance types | 03:42 |
frazer | tried that, my problem is that im using google cloud so its a near impossible task to do anything | 03:43 |
frazer | i hate gcp so so much | 03:43 |
krickit | linux-oem-osp1 is still not found by apt... | 03:43 |
shimbles | i cannot help on gcp; you should use aws for that project | 03:43 |
krickit | uname -sr -> Linux 5.11.0-31-generic | 03:44 |
frazer | Ah you see gcp have the cheapest gpus, hence the stupid choice | 03:44 |
shimbles | gcp is too technical. you will need to use kubernetes on gpu instances, with nvidia docker | 03:44 |
frazer | right now Im just struggling to run a game on these stupid vms - keep getting errors where the vm isn't using the nvidia card to power the game - defaults to a vga controller instead | 03:45 |
shimbles | use nvidia docker | 03:46 |
frazer | alongside kubernetes? - down the rabbit hole i go | 03:46 |

Bashing-om | Kristine: Yukkie - soory for the bad highlight there :( | 04:13 |
krickit | Didn't work though :D Imma assume changing from the HWE kernel to GA probably messes with that fix, so I'm going to reinstall Ubuntu and try again | 04:14 |

TJ- | famubu: then top-right choose "View full publishing history" | 09:30 |

TJ- | weird breakage right now with 20.04/Xubuntu/Xorg. Soon after logging in something seems to trigger a context right-click, a contect dialog pops up and mouse interaction via pressing mouse buttons, or keyboard navigation, fails, as if something has grabbed the focus and won't let go. Happened about 5 times now. Currently in a tty console with weechat, with the GUI sleeping on tty7. Not spotted | 14:52 |
TJ- | anything in --system or --user journal logs. Looking for ideas | 14:52 |
lotuspsychje | TJ-: could it be related to bug #1941933 | 15:03 |

TJ- | lotuspsychje: I'm in console so can't visit links! Don't think so because so far as I recall the touchpad is disabled since I'm using Bluetooth keyboard and mouse - plus, not touching the laptop at all so unless touchpad is generating spurious input ... | 15:05 |
locsmif | lotuspsychje: thanks | 15:06 |
locsmif | Another question: is it true that Ubuntu is moving towards Snap as the package manager rather than Apt? I heard a rumour to that effect today. | 15:07 |
TJ- | lotuspsychje: hmmm, but looking at the GUI's Settings for Mouse etc; several VERY strange device names show up, including some "Realtek Reference Design" thing, and the USB<>Serial adapter! | 15:08 |
lotuspsychje | TJ-: wich kernel are you on? | 15:13 |
TJ- | lotuspsychje: just checked that - noticed the USB<>serial reported by lsusb as a PS/2 mouse. Un/Re-plugged and its back to a USB RS232 adapter. Kernel 5.14-rc5 | 15:15 |
TJ- | doubt its the kernel since PC has been running that build since August 12th | 15:16 |
ogra | TJ-, you should really stop using serial mice, even through USB-Serial adapters ... its 2021 after all ! | 15:17 |

TJ- | ogra: :P | 15:17 |
lotuspsychje | lol | 15:17 |

TJ- | This all started about an hour ago when the builtin RTL wifi device went pear-shaped, so lost bluetooth as a side-effect, with the driver reporting something to the effect of "cannot get firmware out of lps mode" which I inferred as Low Power State so did a reboot, and now this. | 15:19 |

noarb | I'm trying to check how many VSCode integrated terminals are running at any one time. I can test against "$TERM_PROGRAM" == "vscode" in the current shell, and I can get a count of shells with `ls /dev/pts/ | wc -l` ... is there a way to check how many existing shells has that env variable set? | 15:47 |
rfm | noarb I suppose you could look in /proc/*/environ, could readlink /proc/*/exe to check if the proc is a shell, or readlink /proc/*/fd/0 to see if stdin is a tty | 16:01 |
pycurious | https://defuse.ca/b/bPZACAZlht5CzX87ClgV52 - when i try to mount this disk -> wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdc, missing codepage or helper program, or other error. | 16:03 |
pycurious | any ideas on how to fix this drive? | 16:03 |
TJ- | noarb: this should work: " for pro in /proc/[1-9]*/environ; do [ -r $pro ] && cat $pro | xargs -0 | tr \ \\n | grep -q TERM && cat ${pro%/*}/cmdline | xargs -0; done " | 16:03 |
TJ- | noarb: change TERM to whatever you want to match | 16:03 |
noarb | TJ-: I'm going to study that snippet for a little bit, but right now it seems to be janky due to tmux sessions | 16:08 |
noarb | I'm trying to maintain manually how many integratged terminals there are open and add them to their own window in a "vscode" tmux session | 16:09 |
TJ- | noarb: I ran it from tmux :) | 16:10 |
TJ- | noarb: all it does is read the environment of each non-privileged process current $USER can read, convert the zero-terminated string to space-separate, convert spaces to linefeeds then pipes into grep which, if it matches, cats that process's cmdline through xargs to convert the zero-terminator of arg[0] to a space so it is readable | 16:12 |
noarb | this is what I got: https://bpa.st/SCDA I have one gnome terminal with tmux (irssi and two bash shell windows), then I have three vscode windows open, one of which is connected to the tmux session | 16:12 |
noarb | so I would have suspected to currently have only one shell with vscode, although I could see there being three (or four) if something was going on behind the scenes | 16:13 |
TJ- | noarb: you probably want to alter what is output when there's a match to include process ID | 16:13 |
TJ- | noarb: you're matching on TERM not TERM_PROGRAM there | 16:14 |
alkisg | Childs processes will also have TERM_PROGRAM, you'll want to also check the exe | 16:15 |
alkisg | Or, check if the parent is: `/usr/share/code/code /usr/share/code/resources/app/out/bootstrap-fork --type=ptyHost` | 16:15 |

TJ- | lifeforms: yes | 16:50 |
lifeforms | TJ-: nice :) | 16:50 |
TJ- | lifeforms: that device has an msdos disk label, which only supports 4 primary partitions. You have partion #5 which inferes there is an extended partition to contain partion #5. You need to enlarge the extended partition first, then partition #5 | 16:51 |

noarb | if I create a tmpfile in my ~/.bashrc, will the same PID $$ be used in ~/.bash_logout to clean that file up? Or do I need to keep track a different way? | 18:08 |

octav1a | I'm having an issue with a bluetooth speaker. When I first add it, it works fine. If I turn off the bluetooth speaker and turn it back on to use at a later time, ubuntu will disconnect / reconnect in a cycle about every 45 seconds or so. (The playback continuously switches between the laptop speakers, then the bluetooth ones, then back, etc) -- I can fix this be forgetting the bluetooth device and re-pairing it. Does anyone know a few things to try to | 18:39 |
octav1a | make the reconnecting work properly? | 18:39 |
alkisg | noarb: have you explained your end goal? Why are you keeping track of the terminals? | 18:55 |
TJ- | octav1a: did you set the device to 'trusted' status | 18:59 |
noarb | I mentioned it up above. I'm trying to keep track of vscode integrated terminals so I can join them to a dedicated vscode tmux session. I want that so I can switch the window to a different session if I want to continue the work in vscode. If the window just joins the regular session, like another instance of gnome terminal it will restrict the window size. So I think a dedicated tmux session for vscode, | 19:00 |
noarb | with each vscode integrated terminal in a new window in that session would solve the problem | 19:00 |
noarb | I think a /tmp/vscode-shell.$$ file created in bashrc, and then count those files to know what window to create, VSCODE_COUNT=$(ls -l /tmp/vscode-shell.* | wc -l) | 19:01 |
alkisg | noarb: you could create ~/bin/bash that checks with the TERM* variable or with PPID if it's called from vscode, and if so, it would call tmux, otherwise it would exec /bin/bash "$@" | 19:05 |
sarnold | noarb: eww really? /tmp/vscode-shell.$$?? what does vscode do with those files? | 19:05 |
alkisg | vscode searches for bash in the path, so it would invoke your ~/bin/bash instead of /bin/bash | 19:05 |
noarb | sarnold: no bad ideas in brainstorming :-) | 19:05 |
sarnold | noarb: oh, is this *your* pathname, not vscode? | 19:06 |
noarb | yes, I'm creating it in bashrc. (or, I'm debating creating it in a bashrc to keep track of how many vscode integrated terminals are open, to keep track of where to place a tmux window in a dedicated vscode session) | 19:07 |
sarnold | noarb: aha, cool. I was afraid I was going to have to report a security issue to vscode folks ;) | 19:07 |
sarnold | noarb: please do switch to mktemp before sharing the script around :) hehe | 19:08 |
noarb | is that a security issue? I'd like to research more and do it correctly | 19:09 |
alkisg | noarb: here's an example, if you put this to ~/bin/bash, it'll show a message if and only if it's launched inside vscode: https://termbin.com/wala | 19:09 |
alkisg | So instead of the message, put your tmux command there, to launch bash directly inside the tmux window or whatever else you like | 19:10 |
sarnold | yeah; on ubuntu kernels the default settings of sysctls fs.protected_symlinks etc mitigate the worst of the effects of using predictable filenames in /tmp but not everyone runs ubuntu kernels, nor do all kernels implement these features | 19:10 |
noarb | alkisg: I'm able to detect if I'm in a vscode terminal in .bashrc via [ "$TERM_PROGRAM" == "vscode" ], is overriding ~/bin/bash better or safer? | 19:11 |
noarb | sarnold: thanks, I'm going to read up on that more | 19:11 |
alkisg | noarb: with a wrapper, you can run stuff on "enter", on "exit", and even replace what gets to run (e.g. run bash inside tmux) | 19:11 |
alkisg | While if you only want to increase a counter etc, then sure .bashrc is fine | 19:12 |

TJ- | Bashing-om: apt-key is a wrapper around gpg to make it easier to use and setting the correct homedir, so what I did manually is what apt-key does (badly!) | 19:33 |

TJ- | Had to use gpg manually: " gpg --homedir /etc/apt --no-default-keyring --keyring /etc/apt/trusted.gpg --delete-keys "${KEYID}" " | 19:33 |
TJ- | Bashing-om: and remember that will only remove keys from the primary trusted.gpg - it will never delete files in /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/ - those have to be removed manually | 19:34 |

Bashing-om | TJ-: With your consent will add your suggestion to the want list :) | 19:57 |

Batzy | why does dragging and dropping windows on linux suck? | 21:42 |
sarnold | I haven't used a window manager that offered that for a long time, but I don't remember anything super bad about it when I did it | 21:43 |
minimec | Batzy: Does it??? Probably depends on the Desktop Environment you use... | 21:43 |
Batzy | minimec i've noticed it on multiple DEs and multiple distros | 21:43 |
Batzy | if i try to drag a browser tab out | 21:43 |
Batzy | to another screen | 21:43 |
Batzy | holy hell does shit go down | 21:43 |
minimec | Batzy: What's your GPU? | 21:44 |
Batzy | nvidia rtx 2060 super | 21:44 |
TJ- | Batzy: no problems here with amdgpu | 21:44 |
minimec | Batzy: Ok... ;) Blame it on 'team green'... As Linus said... Nvidia... Fuck you... | 21:44 |
TJ- | Xubuntu 20.04 | 21:44 |
minimec | Batzy: I had problems with my nvidia gtx1060 on Enlightenment, but they are gone now. | 21:45 |
minimec | Batzy: The Nvidia driver can be a bit tricky with some cards. | 21:46 |
sarnold | oh, I always stick with intel onboard, that might be part of it | 21:46 |
minimec | Batzy: Try some configuration options in nvidia-settings... https://blog.desdelinux.net/en/how-to-improve-the-performance-of-your-nvidia-card-in-linux/ | 21:47 |
Batzy | i dont think it's performance | 21:47 |
minimec | Batzy: https://www.google.com/search?channel=fs&q=nvidia+optimize+nvidia+performance+linux | 21:47 |
Batzy | like i can play games | 21:47 |
Batzy | 3d games just fine | 21:47 |
Batzy | but if i try to move a tab out of my web browser | 21:47 |
Batzy | it's actually hilarious | 21:47 |
minimec | Batzy: It is not only 'performance' in regard of speed, but of 'features'... | 21:48 |
Batzy | does your guide address that | 21:51 |
minimec | Batzy: First link I posted, probably not... Try the arch wiki for example. Often the arch wiki gives some good tips and tricks | 21:54 |
minimec | Batzy: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/NVIDIA | 21:54 |
