[00:19] When I want to install some flatpak packages, it says that my flatpak version is too old. Is there a way to fix this? [00:27] duik: i think there's a PPA providing newer flatpak versions, have you looked for that, yet? [00:27] which ubuntu release are you using? [00:27] 20.04 [00:28] tomeryn: do you know where I can find that? [00:28] https://launchpad.net/~alexlarsson/+archive/ubuntu/flatpak?field.series_filter=focal looks like it [00:29] !info flatpak focal [00:29] Do I have to uninstall flatpak before adding the PPA? [00:29] flatpak (1.6.5-0ubuntu0.3, focal): Application deployment framework for desktop apps. In component universe, is optional. Built by flatpak. Size 1,044 kB / 5,590 kB. (Only available for linux-any.) [00:30] duik: it might be good, in case there is no clean upgrade path [00:30] Ok thanks [00:30] so you don't have to, but personally i would, unless that would make things a lot more complex === chenqisu1 is now known as chenqisu12 [01:56] Hi. Could someone please give me the default iptables on Ubuntu 20.04 (not sure if there's a rules file in /etc/iptables you could paste me, if not try "iptables --list")? My cloud provider gave me a large-ish default iptables list, and I want to know what I can delete safely to have the same system as I would on a stock Ubuntu install, without [01:56] deleting their security rules. [02:04] ^ solved in #linux, there are none [02:04] oh yeah, thanks === genii is now known as genii-core === tar_xvf_ is now known as tar_xvf === useful_idiot0 is now known as useful_idiot === px_ is now known as px [06:27] Hi [06:27] what is keyboard shortcut to duplicate the display [06:30] Guest54, what version of Ubuntu?

[10:00] I try fancontrol and other power managment tools and no any success until now [10:02] Rumen, Ubuntu version? [10:02] Rumen, `lsb_release -rd` [10:02] 20.04 LTS 64bit [10:03] Ah, okay. [10:03] Rumen, `uname -rv` [10:03] 5.11.0-41-generic #45~20.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Wed Nov 10 10:20:10 UTC 2021 [10:04] Description: Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS Release: 20.04 [10:06] Rumen, did you change BIOS settings? [10:06] this is fancontrol [10:06] https://pastebin.com/13Db7buV [10:06] BIOS - NO [10:06] Thi sis DELL T5400 - there is almost nothing to change [10:07] Still, most BIOS will allow you to set fans to be always enabled or at their full speed. [10:10] Everything is OK until you start video (even youtube) and 15 minutes later start increase and does not decrease anymore until reboot [10:14] Rumen: suddenly, meaning after an update or a reboot? === Nspace_ is now known as Nspace [10:15] Rumen, `sudo lshw` and when did you upgrade your kernel? [10:15] I think it happened after update [10:16] Rumen: can we see your dpkg logs in a paste please? [10:17] https://pastebin.com/dmfRQLAm [10:17] Rumen, thanks. Now `less /var/log/apt/history.log` [10:17] and search for `5.11.0-41` [10:20] https://pastebin.com/48R2XuLA [10:22] Rumen: on 17/11 new kernel version, could it be from then? [10:22] yes there is Upgrade: linux-headers-generic-hwe-20.04:amd64 (5.11.0.40.44~20.04.18, 5.11.0.41.45~20.04.19) [10:23] So the solution - wait for a new kernel release? [10:23] Rumen, quite the opposite. Try choosing the older version during GRUB. [10:24] OK I will need to reboot [10:24] You have 0-41 now. [10:24] Choose 0-40 [10:24] OK I will try [10:24] Good luck.

[11:30] It's very quiet here today. Stick around, maybe someone who knows this stuff will appear and offer some advice. [11:35] yeah i tried to install xubuntu from usb for many times, all failed with errno 5 input output error, i dont know why, it seems medias are good, now i got xubuntu via hardisk install [11:39] xu-irc93w: maybe if you give the volunteers a bit more details, they might help you better, like ubuntu version, graphics card version, dmesg log etc [11:40] xbuntu 20.04 ati hd6470m [11:41] xu-irc93w, `lscpi` [11:41] oops [11:41] *lspci [11:42] grep vga?

[11:46] So it is not caused by the kernel. [11:46] Strange issue [11:47] Rumen: can we see your dmesg in a paste plz?

[12:00] I checked the whole - there is nothing about fans - only HDD fan, but I don't have such [12:01] Rumen: maybe check htop too, see f other things could rise your cpu? [12:01] Sometimes I get error when reboot that power supply fan is not working, but it works normaly. [12:02] htop & journalctl -f while you testing around, see if you can trace anything going on [12:02] sometimes there is error - 1bit RAM error ... no idea what does it mean [12:02] the machine is pretty old, but it is OK [12:03] first lines in your dmesg give ram errors [12:04] mine?

However on boot there is no output/console via UEFI. how can I teach ubuntu to send all the usual console i/o via UEFI?

[13:54] i think my hd6470m not workin even corectrl sees it [13:54] is intel hd3000 full clock 700mhz [13:59] xu-irc69w: you might need to do this before switching> export $DRI_PRIME=1 [14:04] bad command [14:06] !pastebin [14:06] For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use https://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use https://imgur.com/ !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic.

[15:39] hi, any idea how I could change nameserver for an ubuntu machine, without modifying the config file ? [15:39] or without modifying the config file for the network interface [15:40] I want to do some tests on a second internet line using IP aliases configured from command line, and not from a config file. [15:40] on other OSes I just edit /etc/resolv.conf, just for dns [15:43] well it seems it worked by editing /etc/resolv.conf [16:11] I got 'Direct firmware load for iwlwifi-so-a0-hr-b0-63.ucode failed with error -2' in syslog. Can anyone give me a hint on how to solve that one? Google came up empty :-7 [16:13] minimum version required: iwlwifi-so-a0-hr-b0-39, maximum version supported: iwlwifi-so-a0-hr-b0-63. Interesting version numbering scheme :-p. Seems to be about linux-firmware? Have never checked the version of that one before, but I guess I'll do that now.. [16:15] Slartibart: You likely need the backports-iwlwifi-dkms unless it tells you it can't be installed [16:15] Thanks, checking [16:15] Slartibart: The only version is 64 that I know of [16:16] That sounds not so good :-| [16:16] Slartibart: what kernel are you using? [16:17] 5.13.0-21-generic [16:18] Installed the backport package, I guess I should reboot now? [16:19] Slartibart: yes [16:19] brb then :) [16:20] That should work as it shows max version of 68 [16:26] jeremy31: Yes, worked. Thanks :) [16:26] goog [16:26] good [16:28] Is there any way I could have found out about backport-iwlwifi-dkms by myself? Or is it just one of those "you just need to get some experience first, then you'll simply know" moments? [16:33] Slartibart: It might have been in Driver Manager [16:35] Slartibart, and (sometime, iirc) dmesg itself should notify you with the firmware git link ("check git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git") === fjmorazan_ is now known as fjmorazan [17:39] I dripped some coffee on my touchscreen, cleaned it off, now the on screen keybaoard is popping up every min or two. how do I disable that so it doesn't pop up ever? [17:42] it seems to pop up when I switch windows with super-tab [18:01] so i'm setting up a new laptop with ubuntu. it's a dell latitude 5480. Everything seems to work fine except the bluetooth is a bit off. I was able to connect my bluetooth headset... but it didn't switch the audio over and didn't show up in settings/audio/output devices for me to manually switch it. [18:02] i did: pulseaudio -k; start-pulseaudio-x11; sudo service bluetooth restart [18:03] then reconnected the headset... now it shows up... but only in the telephony headset mode with bad quality audio... and the switcher to High Quality A2DP is selectable but does nothing. [18:03] pactl list sinks short shows: [18:03] 0 alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1f.3.analog-stereo module-alsa-card.c s16le 2ch 44100Hz RUNNING [18:03] 1 bluez_sink.00_1B_66_88_2A_36.headset_head_unit module-bluez5-device.c s16le 1ch 8000Hz SUSPENDED [18:05] ens what is the sound input setting, if that shows bluetooth headset as input, see if changing it allows you to change the output setting [18:06] it was initially set to the headphones. but i changed it back to the internal laptop microphone just to see if that would let it go to A2DP mode. [18:06] it's switched to the laptop but that doesn't seem to make any difference trying to toggle the headphone output quality configuration dropdown. [18:20] is there a package I can apt remove to get rid of the OSK (On screen keyboard) [18:26] CarlFK: Probably not, but it should be possible to disable it. Which DE (desktop environment) do you use? For KDE the OSK is part of a package with qtvirtualkeyboard in its name, might be 'qtvirtualkeyboard' or 'qtvirtualkeyboard-plugin' or something entirely else. [18:27] default 20.04.3 focal [18:28] apt-cache policy qtvirtualkeyboard-plugin ... Installed: (none) [18:28] rats. can't remove it. [18:30] obviously it's not installed :-P [18:30] I'm not sure what the default DE is, probably either 'budgie' or 'gnome'. [18:31] CarlFK: For disabling this might work (untested): https://askubuntu.com/questions/84050/how-do-i-disable-the-on-screen-keyboard-in-the-unlock-screen [18:32] but that one is pretty old, so the software might have changed since then [18:35] how do I get "gnome-shell overview" [18:35] $ gnome-shell [18:35] org.gnome.Shell already exists on bus and --replace not specified [18:40] CarlFK, do you want to trigger 'overview' from terminal ? [18:41] ioria: I want to get rid of the OSK - https://askubuntu.com/questions/84050/how-do-i-disable-the-on-screen-keyboard-in-the-unlock-screen starts with "Search for Onboard settings from the gnome-shell overview." [18:46] I've downloaded an AppImage for Mendeley desktop app, and created a Mendeley.desktop in my ~/.local/share/applications. Now I can pin the app in my favorite apps, but when I open the app, a new "Icon" appear on the bar. Is it possible to make my Desktop file control the application itself? [18:54] fixed. closed laotop, waited for power light to show suspend, open. no more OSK. [18:57] I'd be happy to post this 'fix' or whatever somewhere, but I give up trying to figure out where. [18:58] hello there, i need some help. Chromium snap cannot access Aufofirma app (required for electronic spanish government websites). How can i configure it? [19:00] hello [19:00] i have question [19:01] is there any body to help me [19:01] sure [19:01] i can try [19:01] ens: i have a problem in my color of my termnial [19:02] it doesn't work [19:02] which terminal are you using? [19:02] all color is whit and black [19:02] i mean all text [19:03] tango [19:04] yesterday i deleted some files do you think it's because of that [19:04] ?? [19:04] ens:?? [19:04] yeah could be. trying to think of what to suggest you to check. [19:04] go to a directory with files and type: ls --color=auto [19:05] see if that shows colors [19:06] command not found [19:06] ok try type: /bin/ls --color=auto [19:06] how can i fix it what files are related to [19:07] colors of terminal [19:08] it worked [19:08] ens: but when i type ls again it doesnot work [19:09] even when you do: /bin/ls ? [19:09] 2yes [19:10] sounds like you may have deleted something important :x [19:10] yes , [19:10] but how can i solve it [19:12] not sure. if you have removed system files like that then the best action is probably to take a backup of all your data and do a reinstall. [19:12] no shit [19:13] can i recover yesterday deleted files [19:13] ? [19:14] it's possible to try that but it's really very complicated and doesn't have great chances of working [19:16] Anyone understand what's going on with the andy@andy-laptop2 appearing twice? https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/891034270058053676/914232881210069023/unknown.png?width=2242&height=1216 [19:16] Is it supposed to do that, and can I get it not to? [19:19] so i solved the bluetooth a2dp thing: i did: sudo apt install --reinstall pulseaudio pulseaudio-module-bluetooth; sudo apt-get install pavucontrol; pulseaudio -k; start-pulseaudio-x11; sudo service bluetooth restart [19:21] ens: that is odd as IIRC if you were missing pulseaudio-module-bluetooth, it wouldn't have even connected to the headset [19:27] speaking of bluetooth. I need/want to get a bluetooth dongle for my old Dell. [19:28] I would like a recommendation. On amaxon so many wont do Linux either in listings or comments. [19:28] please use my nick in any reply, thanks [19:31] Some windows have two X buttons on them, it's kind of whack [19:41] Anyone know how to fix a MP510 480GB Nvme drive its reading at 3370mbs but writing at 337mb's [19:44] marc_: #hardware, unless you expect it to be linux related? [19:45] I had the same problem with windows 10 i changed the drivers in windows 10 and it fixed it same issue now with linux [19:45] so there are different drivers for it on windows? that's unusual. [19:46] windows 10 installs its drivers which work but the write speeds are not correct [19:47] Is there a firmware update available for it? [19:47] nope [19:47] its a corsair mp510 nvme [19:49] I actuall listed all the drivers and cant see it in there [19:50] you'd need to download and run ssd toolbox to see whether a firmware update is available, those are not separate downloads. but this is really beyond the scope of this channel. [19:51] can i apt-get that [19:51] no [19:52] ok i found the driver its listed as NVMe namespace [19:53] jeremy31: yeah. not sure exactly what it did either but it gave it some sort of a kick. oh well. [19:55] ens: I know that pulseaudio bluetooth package has the module-bluetooth-discover that is needed for bluetooth to connect to a headset and there was one flavor of Ubuntu that didn't install it by default [19:58] can i use .deb files on Ubuntu [19:59] and if so how do i install with them [19:59] !deb | marc_ [19:59] marc_: deb is the Debian package format, also used by Ubuntu. To install .deb files, simply double-click (in Ubuntu) or click (in Kubuntu) on them to start the GDebi utility. [20:00] thanks i got .deb file ssd toolbox i believe from corsair [20:00] hmm i'm not sure that gdbei is still the tool carrying out such installs, but the rest should be correct. also note that it's almost always better to install debian packages (deb files) from an apt repository - if there is one. [20:01] crossover [20:01] thats what its called [20:01] jeremy31: yeah it seems to me that this is likely redundant indeed... since i sort of just tried best guesses from stuff i found on stackoverflow [20:11] I just booted a computer for the first time in a while that's on 16.04.7. Is sudo do-release-upgrade still the recommended upgrade procedure? [20:13] ffs: you will have to change the sources as the repos have shut down [20:14] ffs: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades [20:17] ffs: is it worth the trouble compared to just a fresh install? [20:18] probably not [20:22] In that case, do people have suggestions/pointers on how to install ubuntu alongside windows on a machine with uefi and secure boot? Right now my method to switch operating systems (eg to linux) is to open the bios, disable secure boot, and switch uefi to legacy. Which is quite annoying. [20:22] Is the glusterfs version in 20.04 or in PPA still supported and at least security fixes being backported from upstreams? (Since as of the 16th nov, Glusterfs 10.0 was released, which removes glusterfs8, which is currently the ppa version, from their patch schedule). [20:24] ffs: install either in uefi mode. depending on how well done the 'bios' is, you might still need to disable secureboot to install or keep using ubuntu, but usually it will work. you ewould be able to switch between ubuntu and windows booting from the 'bios' provided boot menu [20:25] ffs keeping secure boot disabled and using GRUB to load both OS's ? [20:27] EtherMan: glusterfs is in the universe repository, so it has community support level only. PPAs have their own support policies (or none). [20:29] The problem with the write speeds on Ubuntu i found this article with no fix but shows what i am on about https://askubuntu.com/questions/1277708/why-are-writes-on-an-nvme-slower-under-linux-than-under-windows [20:30] This might be getting off topic, but windows crashes when i try to boot in legacy mode. @tomreyn , rtgg [20:30] That's why I switch each time. [20:30] tomreyn: Right, and I'm asking if that support means at least security patches will be backported. 20.04 being stable, I'd assume that's not going to be updated and PPA hasn't even updated to 9 yet so I'll assume that too is going to be a while before that's going to be updated. So unless at least security fixes are backported, it's not like it's in a safely usable state right now. [20:30] ffs: i did not suggest to do so, though [20:31] Oh, you're suggesting install both in uefi? [20:31] ffs: my understanding is that you can boot windows in uefi mode (after all, secureboot would not be available otherwise). you're considering to reinstall ubuntu. i'm suggesting that you install ubuntu in uefi mode as well. [20:31] ffs: I don't see a reason to use legacy bios mode [20:32] I see. The word either mislead me. [20:32] Cool. Will try it. [20:32] you can use something like refind if you don't want to switch via the UEFI boot chooser or boot windows via grub, both of which should also work [20:33] at least without secure boot [20:33] grub is fine for me [20:33] EtherMan: there is https://launchpad.net/~gluster/+archive/ubuntu/glusterfs-10?field.series_filter=focal - I do not know its status [20:34] o/ I got a problem: one of 2ssds in my laptop seems to have broken in some way, whenever problematic blocks are read, the device hangs and after a while the device disappears. On the bad disk, i have a LVM PV and a single lv was on that disk, using pvmove I was able to move most blocks to the other disk, now I'm however stuck, as soon as I luksopen [20:34] the 2nd disk, LVM detects the pvs and starts syncing the pvmove partition and immediately breaks the bad disk, previously I could pvmove --abort quick enough, got an idea how to fix this? [20:35] tomreyn: Oh I wasn't aware of that one. When I googled I only got the v8 one. Cheers :) [20:35] ffs: thanks for reminding me, i really need to stop this ambigious word. [20:35] *using [20:36] EtherMan: see also https://launchpad.net/~gluster [20:38] spq: physical removal is not an option? [20:39] cbreak: not sure what you mean, it is an option sure [20:39] spq: you're saying you were able to move (using pvmove) *most* blocks from the bad to the good ssd. i assume this means that *some* blocks are still (attempted to be) read from the broken ssd? [20:40] Yes, using pvmove bad_dev:extent_range good_dev [20:40] Github is having problems so I can't download/install etcher. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ [20:41] ffs: ubuntu has a startup disk creator program too [20:41] ^ [20:41] usb-creator-kde or usb-creator-gtk I think [20:42] dd too [20:42] the kde one worked for me (as far as not giving an error), but I've not yet tried the resulting USB :) [20:42] The issue is that the last of these pvmove broke and after reboot(to get the dev back) and luksopen it immediately starts to sync, i want it to not sync so I can abort that pvmove [20:43] spq: i guess that if those remaining blocks can no longer be read then your best option may be to try to ddrescue or similar the full bad ssd to an image and just force it's removal off the VG [20:43] will it still try to sync if the ssd is physically removed? [20:43] Cool. Got it. [20:44] Cbreak: No, but before I luksopen it also doesn't sync (as the PV is on the LUKS) [20:45] ffs: according to the man page, you can also request to abort the pvmove operation. [20:46] --abort [20:47] Yes but it fails before the underlying pvs are there, and when I make them available, the sync starts immediately [20:47] So I have no time to abort [20:48] *switching to second laptop instead of phone* [20:48] Hmm, how suspicious should I be when it takes about 500ms to allegedly write the entire image to the drive. [20:48] hmm, i was hoping this would call off the 'sync' === spq is now known as spq_phone === spq_ is now known as spq [20:50] tomreyn: did you mean me? === justache is now known as justBOOMER [20:51] spq: opps, right, this was to you [20:52] tomreyn: if so, yes - it aborts the move and stops the sync, however it refuses to work until the underlying pv's are available, and making them available starts the sync which breaks too fast [20:52] LOL it boots what in the... apparently my usb drive went into God mode for a second. [20:53] So I figured it out. Gnome under Xorg and Wayland act differently in a strange way. It's like the Xorg one has extra window decorations enabled. [20:54] so what i need is something that disables lvm's sync'ing system wide or something to disable the pvmove while only 1/2 pvs are present [20:54] Easiest app that demonstrates this is the File manager app. Or the Terminal [20:59] Under Xorg, the File manager will have two minimize, two maximize, and two close buttons, along with an extra window decoration along the top that duplicates some of what the one under does. But under Wayland, it looks normal. This is under Ubuntu 21.10 [21:10] spq: you can define a whitelist of volumes (this can include VG names) to be auto-activated (when all member PVs are present), as auto_activation_volume_list in lvm(local).conf. if undefined, auto-activation takes place for all volumes. maybe this is actually the automation you're seeing. [21:11] (I do not know what you see, you have not shred output.) [21:11] neither shred not shared ;) [21:12] thanks, ill look into this, maybe a non activated lv does not sync [21:20] I can't seem to add a nextcloud server to the settings for calendar. I enter in the server, username, and password and hit enter and nothing happens. === veemo is now known as VeemoBedrockEdit === VeemoBedrockEdit is now known as veemobedrock [21:31] hi [21:31] is there any one [21:32] No, not really, but it's worth a try [21:33] who knows where can i find [21:34] Here or askubuntu.com maybe, I don't know. Or just wait for a non-holiday. or Non-weekend. [21:34] .sudo_as_admin_successful [21:34] this file [21:37] I'm not sure what you're asking. It would be in your home directory.
