wd50it's been my experience that i sometimes have to change a systemd script to make the change take effect, in addition to the config change to reflect it.00:00
wd50for example, docker00:00
sarnoldrafis: if you use sudo you have to type 'sudo systemctl suspend' etc00:01
tomreynmy default 20.04 primary restricted user can "systemctl poweroff" without entering a password00:01
sarnoldtomreyn: even from a fresh shell or a fresh ssh connection?00:02
sarnoldsome of these polkit things have short grace periods00:02
scott_tamsyeah, but this is more the driver/kernel level than the init system. `for keyword in nvidia nouveau; systemctl list-units | grep $keyword` prints nothing00:02
rafistomreyn: how did you get it to work! ?00:02
tomreynsarnold: that's from a gnome-terminal of the logged in user. i had not entered the user password for a good while.00:03
tomreynrafis: out of the box, fresh install00:03
wd50i know.00:03
wd50i'll look for a solution00:03
sarnoldtomreyn: huh. interesting :)00:04
scott_tamsI'm just pissed/confused (and also pissed in the other sense) as to why SuperTuxKart looked great with motion blur and bloom yesterday or the day before and now it's a slideshow at the lowest settings00:04
tomreynits groups are: user adm cdrom sudo dip plugdev lpadmin lxd sambashare00:04
scott_tamsbrb00:05
tomreyn"user" is the name of the user00:05
tomreynas well as its primary grouĆ¼00:05
tomreyn*group00:05
tomreyn"pkaction" lists "org.freedesktop.login1.reboot" and "org.freedesktop.login1.power-off" amongst other00:09
rafissarnold: worked00:10
rafissarnold: you were right, still needs to write sudo before systemctl00:11
sarnoldtomreyn: oh wow, I've never seen that before00:12
tomreynare you "administrator" on settings -> users?00:12
tomreynrafis: ^00:12
tomreynsarnold: this command seems to be pretty useless though :)00:12
sarnoldtomreyn: it's the single most useful thing I've learned about polkit so far :)00:13
wd50scott_tams: did you make any changes to your grub configuration?00:13
tomreynsarnold: this can either mean that you find it to be mostly useless or that you haven't learnt much about it, yet. i'd be the latter class.00:14
scott_tamsyes as I said in the first few messages I added `nouveau_blacklist=1` after I noticed the problem in order to force the switch back00:14
scott_tamsbrb00:14
wd50ah, okay, i see where it said that00:14
tomreynbedtime for me, ttyl.00:15
* scott_tams is back00:15
wd50but i do notice that the line in that post said had a period where you placed an underscore.00:15
* scott_tams logged in from another machine, so that I can reboot without /quitting00:16
wd50what happens if you put `nouveau.blacklist=1`, instead of `nouvear_blacklist=1`?00:18
wd50i typoed that last part00:18
scott_tamsyup, trying that now. dumbass mistake, bet that'll fix it00:18
wd50alright.00:19
scott_tamsno changfe00:24
wd50hmm00:25
wd50well that was from like a decade ago..00:25
* wd50 keeps looking00:25
Bashing-omscott_tams: Not paid attention to your issue - restate it for me please .00:27
wd50okay, so you mentioned editing grub, but did you also do anything with `/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-nouveau.conf`00:27
scott_tamssystem unexpectedly switched from nvidia proprietary to nouveau, trying to get it to go back to nvidia00:27
wd50Bashing-om: he wants to use nvidia drivers but nouveau is resilient.00:27
Bashing-omscott_tams: wd50: Nvidia driver (module) fully installed ' dpkg -l | grep -i nvidia ' ?00:29
wd50he seems to have the respective driver packages installed.00:30
scott_tamsBashing-om, that returns 28 packages00:32
wd50scott_tams: did you create `/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-nouveau.conf`?00:33
scott_tams no00:33
scott_tamswhat if I try uninstalling xserver-xorg-video-nvidia-470, then running ubuntu-drivers autoinstall? Do you think that would have any effect?00:34
scott_tamsIf so, should I reboot between the two commands?00:35
wd50scott_tams: i found a slightly newer answer. https://askubuntu.com/questions/841876/how-to-disable-nouveau-kernel-driver that first answer.00:35
scott_tamsthe reason I ask is because I feel like i remember before this the 4** number being a lower number, like 440 or 430 or something00:35
wd50scott_tams: i don't really think so. what did you say caused it to act up, again?00:36
scott_tamsI don't know for sure. I suspect that something was installed as a dependency and got auto-uninstalled, but TBH it came completely out of the blue from my perspective00:37
wd50interesting. sounds like a rocky patch process.00:38
wd50i mean i guess you could try reinstalling those packages.00:39
wd50but with apt, i would use `--purge`, or else nothing is truly reset when it reinstalls.00:39
wd50at least in my experience. unless someone deletes the python lib and places it back in from an iso, then simple apt reinstall works for me.00:39
wd50but for this driver thing, i'm seeing quite the community-developed assortment of possible solutions, but none of which are necessarily new or out of the scope of what those two links that you  posted suggest that you did.00:41
scott_tamsi remember running a suspicious autoinstall with something about chromium and some stuff that looked like it was graphics related, but I can't remember what packages it was...it may have been this log entry?00:43
scott_tamslibserd-0-0, librubberband2, chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra, python3-cached-property, bridge-utils, pigz, python3-texttable, containerd, ubuntu-fan, python3-websocket, libblas3, libbs2b0, libfftw3-double3, libvidstab1.1, python3-importlib-metadata, python3-more-itertools, docker.io, python3-attr, python3-jsonschema, python3-docker, python3-docopt, libgstreamer-plugins-bad1.0-0, pocketsphinx-en-us, runc, libsord-0-0, libflite1, gstreamer1.0-vaapi,00:43
scott_tamsliblilv-0-0, python3-dockerpty, python3-pyrsistent, python3-zipp, libsratom-0-000:43
scott_tamsah I don't think so00:43
scott_tamsI'll be back in a few minutes. Thanks so much for trying to help wd50 and Bashing-om00:44
wd50np. i'm happy to help because i've had my fair share of wanting to pull my hair out over these kinds of issues.00:46
wd50chromium installs docker?00:46
wd50or was that some of the other stuff?00:46
wd50i don't see any package names that look like they should have touched your graphics drivers, intofar as i'm aware.00:49
scott_tamsyeah I think that's a dead end00:52
wd50unless the deb packages for docker might have done that, i guess.00:53
wd50or unless it had to do with hardware acceleration settings, if you were messing with that. it still doesn't quite explain what happened to me. but these are just guesses. have you tried anything from the askubuntu link that i posted?00:54
scott_tamsyour link made me wonder....so I ran `cat /etc/modprobe.d/* | grep nvidia`...00:55
scott_tamsblacklist nvidiafb00:55
wd50ah.00:55
wd50trying stuff now?00:55
scott_tamsthat doesn't look like the problem...sec00:56

scott_tamshowever `lspci -nnk | grep -i vga -A3` still shows `Kernel modules: nvidiafb, nouveau`01:00
=== coconut_ is now known as coconut
scott_tamsthis explains a lot -- nvidiafb is blacklisted, which leaves nouveau.01:01
wd50nvidiafb isn't from nvidia, though01:02
wd50but do also add that one file for blacklisting nouveau.01:03
scott_tamsI'm gonna try the idea I had to uninstall the NVidia 470 package and run the driver autoinstaller. If `kernel moudles` doesn't include the driver listing under lspci, I don't see what blacklisting the nonexistent module will do.01:04
scott_tamsI'll try the blacklist thing if this doesn't work though, ofc01:04
wd50alright.01:05
wd50this is way more tinkering than i would ever hope to have to do on ubuntu lol.01:05
scott_tamsyeah, same. But I'm more used to manjaro and have only switched back to ubuntu for zfs-on-root01:06

neffhalf of usb not working05:41
alkisgneff, that might mean an ssd/flash disk failure or a controller failure or a power issue etc. It's usually a hardware problem that can't be fixed. Do mention more details about it05:47
alkisgE.g. paste the exact message in pastebin, mention when it happens, which devices are affected etc05:47
alkisgAlso in some cases it might mean that the Linux kernel isn't compatible with certain hardware; and in few of these cases, changing the kernel makes the problem go away05:48

SpydI'm building a server, it has two 120Gb SATA SSDs on an AMD B450 motherboard. I want the two SSDs on RAID 1 (redundancy). I tried software RAID, but Ubuntu doesn't want to boot from a software raid. I tried hardware RAID (with the onboard RAID controler from AMD), but there's no included drivers for this RAID controller, and I don't know how to install them.11:04
SpydI tried to use the console to install RCRAID, but failed because this program can't be installed on the read-only volume of the live-OS. Any solution that allows me to install Ubuntu on a RAID is fine with me, I don't care if software or hardware.11:04
TJ-Spyd: it can boot from software RAID1, you just need to configure the devices correctly11:56
BluesKajHi folks11:57
TJ-Spyd: the trick is to install grub to both underlying devices (and use the correct mdadm --metadata=1.0 to put metadata at /end/ of the device, not start)11:57
TJ-Spyd: on both use identical GPT arrangement, for UEFI create the EFI-SP (256-512MB), for BIOS create a BIOS boot partition (2MB), then a partition for the OS. RAID-1 the OS partition. grub-install to each underlying device.12:02
=== Oxfuxxx is now known as sharkee
=== sharkee is now known as oxfuxxx
SpydTJ-: Thank you for your answer, I'm trying to understand it. Please tell me if I understand it correctly. I'm going to use mdadm to partition both phyisical drives, creating the exact same partitions (EFI, SYSTEM, SWAP), then create a RAID-1 of the SYSTEM partition, is that right?12:48
TJ-Spyd: no, what I was suggesting was to /not/ RAID the entire physical devices, but only a partition for the OS. You can do as you suggest as long as you use --metadata=1.0 but firmware can only boot from a single device, and that'll prevent grub-install working on the MD device since it can only read, not write, to MD12:51
=== genii-core is now known as genii
SpydTJ-: If I create the same partitions on both SSDs, and then create a RAID-1 of the partition where the OS is installed, will it work? Also, for this to work, do I have to install on a single disk before or I can make the RAID-1 on the installer shell and then continue with installation?12:59
nunyaCRTL Home no longer does screenshot I've tried CRTL ALT Home. My screen flashes but when I go into GIMP and hit paste it says nothing in clipboard. Please help. I've googled but found no solution.13:08
nunyaThere is no image data in the clipboard to paste is the exact message13:10
TJ-Spyd: Yes it'll work. Create the mdadm array with --metadata=1.0 manually before running the installer so you can select the md device as the location for installation, but set bootloader to one of the devices. Later, you can use dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc (or grub-efi-am64) to reinstall to multiple devices - it gives a list of devices and you can 'tick' more than one in debconf)13:11

nunyaleftyfb: It was never like that for me before but you are correct now I'm finding all the previous screenshot attempts in pictures. Any way to get it back to clipboard instead of creating images in pictures?13:39
leftyfbnunya: first, yes, it has always been like that as default. If you changed it, that's another story. Either way, go look in your keyboard shortcut settings to change it to your liking13:42

Spydsarnold: One thing strange is that when I created the raid volume, I called it md0, but after the first reboot when it crashed, now it's called md127.18:29
TJ-Spyd: not sure why it would crash. I gave up on installers a long time ago - I can do it quicker and better manually + debootstrap :)18:29
SpydTJ-: I'm too much of a noob to even try that.18:30
TJ-Spyd: after some years fighting ubiquity it becomes 2nd nature :)18:31
sarnoldSpyd: it's usually a good bet to go to the very end and then start reading backwards to find the 'first' error18:32
TJ-Spyd: one issue I see is sda and sdb don't have identical partition layouts18:34
TJ-Spyd: that may not be why the installer failed, but where you're trying to create a mirror layout, then even where the RAID1 mirror isn't active (the EFI-SP for example) you should manually duplicate that so in the event the device with the primary EFI-SP fails the system can still boot (you should also ensure using "grub-install --force-extra-removable ..." so grub's core is also installed to the18:37
TJ-removable media path)18:37
SpydI found the error, it says the raid volume is bad? https://paste.pics/d3925ef03000ded63965778e6980f96a18:37
lmatI did apt install docker; docker; and it says Command 'docker' not found.18:37
lmatapt install docker; says "docker is already at the newest version"18:38
lmatHow do I install docker in ubuntu?18:41
sarnoldlmat: docker is a system tray tool18:45
sarnoldlmat: you probably want docker.io instead18:45
TJ-Spyd: "comparing device lists: expected [/dev/sda2, /dev/sda2] found [/dev/sda2, /dev/sdb2]18:48
TJ-Spyd: looks like (another) installer bug!18:48
lmatsarnold: so docker is some system tray tool and https://github.com/docker/docker is docker.io?18:49
matsamanlmat: yup18:51
lmatmatsaman: Thank you for the confirmation. This is fairly surprising, but sounds workable. Thank you!18:53
matsamanone must be careful choosing a name as simple and bland as 'docker' if one doesn't want to intersect with other projects already existing18:53
sarnoldlmat: exactly that :)18:57
ELFrederichOn 20.04 when I install gimp-plugin-registry I get plugin errors when starting gimp.  The liquid rescale and heal selection plugins are not available.  This wasn't an issue on 18.04.20:06
samy1028Hello all, I'm trying to find the rsyslog-omudpspoof for 18.04 or 20.04.  Is there a package for it in Ubuntu's repository?  If so, I can't seem to find it.20:33
sarnoldsamy1028: I can't find any files with that name in any package in ubuntu focal, nor any files with that name in any source code shipped with any supported version of ubuntu20:39
samy1028Yeah, I did an update a little while back on 18.04 and it updated rsyslog, but I think my omudpspoof is still on the prior version of rsyslog and the new one doesn't like it anymore.  I guess I could find the .so file to match my build of rsyslog from another distro and copy it to my ubuntu box?  I don't remember exactly as it's been a long time since I set it up initially.20:42
samy1028or, I wonder if I copied it from 16.04?  I just did a strings on omdupspoof.so and found reference to Ubuntu 5.4.0-6ubuntu1~16.04.920:44
leftyfbsamy1028: there are no files that exist in 16.04 that match omdupspoof either20:47
leftyfbsamy1028: or omudpspoof20:47
leftyfbI take that back, there is a .txt and .html file20:48
leftyfbas part of rsyslog-doc20:48
leftyfbno modules20:48
leftyfbsamy1028: I searched 16.04, 18.04 and 20.0420:49
leftyfbsamy1028: if it's something you've had before, it's because you added it from a 3rd party20:50
samy1028odd.  I have to figure out how to make it work again. :)  always fun when something breaks.20:51
samy1028It's an isolated system whose sole job is to collect syslogs, store them, and forward a few to another system for further reporting/analysis.  The omdupspoof.so is from 2018, last time I worked on it.20:52
scott_tams"Night Light" has stopped changing the temperature of my screen. Ubuntu 21.04 (wayland/gnome) what do?20:52
samy1028at least this points me in the rigth direction.  Thank you sarnold and leftyfb.20:52
sarnoldgood luck samy1028 :)20:53
samy1028when I find the solution I'll let ya'll know.20:53
scott_tamsI installed redshift and this is the output but nothing changes https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/KzHznkNYxW/20:59
scott_tamsif no one knows how to fix this, could someone at least advise me on the steps necessary to run 21.04 using X11?20:59
tomreynscott_tams: install xserver-xorg. you can switch your session at login21:29
scott_tamsthanks21:30
scott_tams"xserver-xorg is already set to the newest version"21:31
scott_tamswhere does the selection show up in the login screen? I was looking for it yesterday and couldn't find it21:31
tomreynscott_tams: i don't have 21.04 installed, but it should be on the first login screen where you pick the username21:36
scott_tamsok, I'll try it now.21:37
tomreynactually no, the second screen21:37
tomreyn<tomreyn> actually no, the second screen21:39
tomreynthere's a cog icon on the bottom right corner of the gdm password screen of my 21.10 preview21:39
scott_tamstomreyn, your message came through just before i /quit. But I didn't see a drop-down in either screen21:39
scott_tamsI'll check once more21:40

scott_tamsit didn't work. TBH don't stress about it. This install is having a bunch of problems. Just gonna start from scratch again. Thanks anyway.21:41
scott_tamsI was in here for hours yesterday trying to figure out why it insists on using the nouveau drivers rather than the nvidia ones21:42
tomreynlong sessions trying to get "nvidia" working aren't unheard of. i can only recommend intel and amd at this time.21:44
tomreyn(or those better supported graphics on arm64)21:45
scott_tamsabsolutely, and if I were in the market for a video card now, i wouldn't even consider Nvidia. But I bought this card 5+ years ago for cheap and it's served me well, so I'm not just gonna throw it out. TBH this troubleshooting session has revealed to me how little value ZFS-on-root snapshots have next to an efficiently rebuildable architecture. I'll try some old snapshots and see if I can recover just for the sake of learning, but I think I'm going21:46
scott_tamsto (yet again) go back to ext4-on-root from a snapshottable root FS21:46
scott_tamsthis time, with a rebuildable arch for the whole system as opposed to just the containers21:47
orionHello. How can I build only the kernel and not its associated modules with the deb framework? "LANG=C fakeroot debian/rules binary-aws" seems to want to build both.21:58
orionAlternatively, what's the best way to establish a cadence for kernel development on a remote server?21:58
