[00:15] I'm having problems with my webcam / cheese, uvcvideo virtualbox device, works fine in vlc but cheese says no device even with -d /dev/video0 [00:17] orbisvicis, try to set resolution 1 step lower in preferences, that made my webcam work. [00:17] in cheese * [00:17] oerheks, can't set the resolution without a device [00:18] then virtual box is the culprit? [00:21] oerheks, I would think so, but it does work fine in vlc [00:21] yeah, good point [00:23] might be this? https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/18725 [00:23] www.virtualbox.org ticket 18725 in other "WebCam passtrough doesn't properly pass format capabilities to guest GStreamer" [New] [00:23] does cheese use gstreamer? [00:24] yes, i think so [00:44] oerheks, yeah I checked the logs and seems to be the exact same problem === jje9 is now known as jje [01:25] Hello?

[02:06] BlackDalek: be sure you look for one of those before you've spent too much time on other things :) [02:07] sarnold, there is a wifi on/off key on keyboard if that's what you mean, but it is on. [02:07] hehe dang, I was hoping for an easy win [02:10] ndiswrappper?

I can't get wifi hardware detected . How do I fix wifi? [02:19] if you can plug it in wifi driver might show up in drivers [02:20] orange1, I have a ethernet cable plugged in but nothing shows up in software and updates for additonal drivers [02:20] ah ok [02:20] look up ndiswrapper? [02:35] ok.. how do I install and use ndiswrapper on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and how do I use it to fix no wifi detected? [02:36] did you sudo apt upgrade everything yet? [02:37] orange1, yes. everything is up to date [02:39] what does sudo lshw -class network say [02:40] orange1, it shows https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/2ns6ZS5xc4/ [02:41] i cant read it i have to sign up for it [02:42] just trying to see brand of wifi is in there [02:42] orange1... hold on I try another pastebin site === genii is now known as genii-core [02:43] orange1, https://pastebin.com/xQGm2kRk [02:43] did that work? [02:44] yeah, what does uname -a say [02:44] orange1, it says... Linux john-Aspire-A515-56 5.11.0-44-generic #48~20.04.2-Ubuntu SMP Tue Dec 14 15:36:44 UTC 2021 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux === alloyy is now known as alloy [02:45] that wifi works in kernel versions 5.12 and up [02:46] orange1, how do I get kernel 5.12 installed properly? [02:48] well, maybe somebody here know how to do that better. i only did that once a long time ago but my ubuntu 21.10 has kernel version 5.13 [02:50] If I install a mainline kernel to fix the wifi, does that mean everything else will be broken? [02:54] Is there any way to get wifi working in kernel 5.11 instead? [02:54] !info inux-generic-hwe-20.04 focal [02:54] linux-generic-hwe-20.04-edge (5.13.0.23.23~20.04.10, focal): Complete Generic Linux kernel and headers. In component main, is optional. Built by linux-meta-hwe-5.13. Size 2 kB / 19 kB [02:56] ^^ Humm that does not jive with "apt" :( [02:58] Bashing-om, what do you mean? I just tried 'apt install --simulate linux-generic-hwe-20.04-edge' on my 20.04 machine and it looks like it would happily install linux-image-5.13.0-23-generic [03:00] rfm: In regards to ' apt list linux-generic-hwe-20.04 ' result. [03:01] Bashing-om, it has to be the -edge version to get 5.13 apparently [03:01] do note the '-edge' at the end of that package [03:02] Is this in relation to my no wifi/kernel upgrade problem? [03:03] BlackDalek: Sorta - see if the HWE stack supports. [03:03] BlackDalek: yeah; orange1 said your wifi is supported in 5.12 and newer; and there's a 5.13 kernel (that may or may not work) available to test with; try sudo apt install --install-recommends linux-generic-hwe-20.04-edge [03:03] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack [03:07] sarnold, ok. I will try it and see what this breaks next. [03:08] BlackDalek: One will need to do ^ on a fully updated system :) [03:31] I uninstalled ufw to use iptables instead. service iptables status shows Active: inactive (dead). But service netfilter-persistent status shows Active: active (exited). How do know which one is correct and iptables is actually alive? [03:32] iptables is a kernel module, not actually a service [03:32] or a set of kernel modules rather [03:33] lsmod | grep ipt [03:33] tomreyn: well, it's the userspace tools for netfilter [03:33] tomreyn: but how do I know routes are going through iptables with Active: inactive (dead)? [03:33] whihc ubuntu release are you on there? [03:33] server 20.04 [03:34] and there is actually an iptables.service unit? [03:35] no there is not [03:35] hmm... how does service iptables status return data? [03:36] hmm yes looks like you do have this service file [03:36] i just tried that on a fresh 20.04 lts server and dont have it [03:36] do you have an /etc/init.d/iptables perhaps? that might also show something similar? [03:37] sarnold: no [03:37] systemctl status iptables.service should tell whether it's a systemd service unit [03:38] maybe it's part of netfilter-persistent [03:38] dman777: iptables is deprecated. You should be using nftables to manage the netfilter tables. [03:38] tomreyn: https://dpaste.org/Uj3T [03:39] jkc: deprecated in linux or just in ubuntu? [03:39] dman777: deprecated in linux, ubuntu hasn't switched to nftables yet [03:40] oh wow [03:41] dpkg -S /lib/systemd/system/iptables.service [03:41] just recently? looks like the last stable release was [03:41] 1.8.7 / 15 January 2021; [03:41] https://packages.debian.org/search?searchon=contents&keywords=%2Flib%2Fsystemd%2Fsystem%2Fiptables.service&mode=exactfilename&suite=stable&arch=any I tried all of stretch, buster, bullseye, and bookworm and can't spot that file in any of them. what's in that file? :) [03:42] I believe Ubuntu has switched to nftables as of 21.10. [03:42] oh the "Docs:" reference in https://dpaste.org/Uj3T#L2,3 already gives it away that the iptables.service systemd unit is part of netfilter-persistent [03:42] jkc: not for userspace FWICT [03:43] jkc: believe me, I get asked basically every week when the security team will finish the nftables MIR process.. [03:43] And, actually, Ubuntu 20.04 uses nftables as well. iptables is only used as a translation layer. [03:43] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nftables/+bug/1887187 [03:43] Launchpad bug 1887187 in nftables (Ubuntu) "[MIR] nftables" [Critical, Confirmed] [03:43] !shrug [03:43] tomreyn: so iptables is more like a wrapper in this case? [03:44] 20.04: /etc/alternatives/iptables -> /usr/sbin/iptables-nft -> /usr/sbin/xtables-nft-multi [03:44] confusing.... I have iptables-save and it shows the counters incrementing [03:44] dman777: you should be using the "iptables" command to manage the in-kernel packet filter on 20.04 LTS [03:45] tomreyn: sorry, I don't understand exactly [03:45] dman777: can you repeat the question/problem then that you're trying to solve? [03:46] maybe i misunderstood [03:46] tomreyn: how can I be certain iptables is being applied when systemctl status iptables.status shows as Active: inactive (dead)? [03:47] dman777: how do you mean "iptables is being applied"? [03:49] tomreyn: yes [03:51] dman777: can you explain what you expect to happen when you say "certain iptables is being applied" [03:52] the packets being blocked or routed through netfilter according to the rules set by iptables [03:52] alis [03:54] dman777: so iptables.service is part of netfilter-persistent / iptables-persistent. it's a oneshot service meaning it just runs once and then exists. specifically at boot, to restore saved configurations from before the reboot. [03:55] it should not interfere with manually set rules [03:55] ok, thanks [03:55] (other than that it will save those when you reboot and restore them afterwards) [04:11] After qemu/kvm recent update. Guest networking not working; Spice not working; Text console not working; Once VM started, force off/reset working, reboot/shut down not working. [04:11] When I restart libvirtd I get --> libvirtd.service: Found left-over process 5125 (dnsmasq) in control group while starting unit. Ignoring. [04:11] Looked at iptables, at first glance, nothing seems to have change. [04:11] The virtual machine start, and is completely inaccessible. === matsaman_ is now known as matsaman [06:05] Hi [06:08] What is the cheapest thin client one can buy? tablet, raspbery pi, old pc, old laptop, android tv, any other? the idea is the connect to a remote (LAN based) computer which has x2go in it and use that instead for browsing, coding/development, youtube (need sound too and I guess x2go has the option). OR some other protocol than x2go but that is the [06:08] intention: invest on one good pc and use 4-5 or more thin clients (cheapest). [06:26] Sumao: a question for #hardware perhaps? [06:32] ok [06:53] Hi [06:53] Can i get a support for wacom pen tablet here? [06:56] node1: maybe, just ask. [06:57] node1: try running lsusb and get the lines which refer to it, and post them to a pastebin [06:57] I'm using Ubuntu 20.04. And i think it has some program related to wacom in it. [06:58] I have connected my `one by wacom` in USB , but it looks nothing appears. [06:59] try a different usb port [07:00] if this doesn't change it, run dmesg -w while you connect it, see what's added (ctrl-c to cancel) [07:00] It looks it recognise my wacom https://pastebin.com/raw/iZcib2xq [07:01] so, does it work, yet? [07:02] I can't see anything on screen [07:04] does it say "Unknown device_type for 'Wacom Co.,Ltd. CTL-472'. Ignoring." in dmesg -w ? [07:04] Bus 002 Device 003: ID 056a:037a Wacom Co., Ltd CTL-472 [One by Wacom (S)] [07:06] dmesg|grep -i wacom| nc termbin.com 9999 [07:08] and make sure you have xserver-xorg-input-wacom installed [07:11] it looks the given documentation does not work https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wacom/LatestDriver [07:12] This repository does not respond doctormo/wacom-plus [07:12] "Wacom/LatestDriver (last edited 2015-11-28 18:30:17[...]" [07:13] it's probably outdated [07:14] https://github.com/linuxwacom/input-wacom/wiki/Installing-input-wacom-from-source [07:14] how to compile here ? they have not clear what to download [07:14] you did not share the dmesg output, yet [07:15] dmesg does not have any output related to string `wacom` [07:16] that's surprising, since the device was enumerated and is listed by lsusb [07:17] On some of the installed programs, the icon stays in Activities. It doesn't let me put it on the desktop screen [07:18] Is a right click supposed to give me the option of uptting it on the desktop? [07:20] ELQEYNN: many of the support questions you could ask here will depend on your ubuntu version and flavour. you mentioned "activities", which probably refer to the default gnome-shell desktop on current ubuntu releases, but it's not yet clear what you are running exactly. [07:21] also xorg vs xwaylaynd can make a difference [07:21] * xwayland [07:25] ubuntu version 21.20 [07:26] there's no such version. try lsb_release -ds in a terminal [07:27] or Settings -> Details [07:28] 21.10 (impish indri) according to /etc/os-release [07:28] ok, and this defaults to xwayland [07:29] i'll ake a look in a vm [07:30] i don't see an "add to desktop" option in the context menu when right clicking on an application in activity [07:30] *activities [07:31] so i don't think that's meant to work [07:32] Then, what is the way to get the icon on the desktop screen? [07:32] ELQEYNN: generally, the gnome folks decided at some point that there should not be desktop icons. so support for this is limited now. [07:32] what you could maybe do is to place a .desktop file in that directory [07:33] in the Desktop directory? [07:33] systemd update. how scary [07:34] ELQEYNN: possibly so, i have not tried this [07:35] Gallomimia, what is scary about systemd? [07:35] well if it's being update..... [07:35] what could possibly go wrong? [07:38] darn if I know, you're the one who brought it up. [07:38] the problem with the answer to my question is... everything. a concentrated single point of failure. i'm sure they did lots of testing before updating it, and it's not that i don't trust the boyz (and gals?) at canonical, but they're human beings, and we all make mistakes, and there's no way they could have tested every single possible hardware combination [07:38] i was wondering if anyone knew anything about the update, if it had any issues [07:39] Gallomimia: there are changelogs, and you are probably referring to a security / bug fix update, not a feature upgrade. [07:39] ah okay that's probably a lot less scary [07:40] i'm just, not having a great day, and my system is already wonderfully unstable due to that nvidia driver bug you helped me find out about [07:41] the devs at nvidia can't reproduce it.. i think i'm going to have to downgrade drivers === phireant3 is now known as phireant [07:44] i don't know much about nvidia graphics drivers. there's a good chance that i misinterpreted something, but i couldn't tell now since i do not remember what this is about. === vit is now known as Guest2986 === rvgate2 is now known as rvgate [08:23] hi [08:23] is anyone here who knows ffmpeg well? [08:23] I am trying to add texts to certain timestamps, but always one too many frames gets the text [08:24] did you try #ffmpeg ? [08:24] tomreyn, everyone's idling there [08:24] how long did you wait? [08:25] tomreyn, for a while, but I have also been there some days ago, and it was the same [08:25] hmm, maybe they have a different, more active (potentially non IRC) support channel. [08:26] however that may be... is anyone here, in this channel, who can help? [08:27] which ubuntu version does it refer to? [08:27] 18.04 [08:27] But I am using the snap version of ffmpeg, so it should be the newest version [08:29] tomreyn, I might be getting help in #linux [08:29] tomreyn, looks like somebody just started a conversation with me [08:30] very well, good luck. [08:34] I could solve this by changing the seconds, but then numbers would overlap [08:34] can I do this with frames instead of seconds? [08:35] but, doing it with frames would have a downside [08:35] in my real script, I am doing some math, and dividing 24 is harder than working with seconds [08:36] i don't think this is really ubuntu specific enough to have a chance to be solved here.

[12:48] so no, it's not fine [12:48] normally i would install a snap to see the settings, but not spotify === SteveMST3K is now known as GSMarquis [13:32] jay-m126 why 3 inlogs again ?

[15:43] asdwww: you mean in nautilus? [15:43] yup [15:44] asdwww: not as a feature, no. But here's the source code for nautilus if you want to compile your own version https://github.com/GNOME/nautilus. [15:44] asdwww: why do you need to remove it? [15:44] i dont need it [15:45] so it's not an nautilus extension? I need to re-compile nautilus to disable it? [15:45] yes, no tweak to hide it [15:46] hmm, what about minimal ubuntu install? Does it contain nautilus too? [15:46] asdwww: I'm sure over 50% of the of the menu's and dialogs in any linux distribution you don't need. Do you plan on removing all of them? [15:46] well I just need a linux distro which has: terminal, firefox, virtualbox, java - and basically that's all [15:47] maybe i should just install minimum version of ubuntu? [15:47] and install the mentioned ones? [15:47] is there any list of what packages ubuntu-desktop and minimal install contains? [15:48] THis post gives a clue, but only about connected/previous connected services ~/.local/share/gvfs-metadata >>https://askubuntu.com/questions/1284524/ubuntu-20-04-1-how-to-remove-network-file-sharing-location-on-nautilus-under-ot [15:48] asdwww: ubuntu minimal is ubuntu server with packages removed [15:48] oerheks thanks [15:49] leftyfb where can i check what ubuntu server contains then? [15:49] asdwww: what's the use case of this stripped down machine? [15:50] server almost contains nothing, no ssh-service, no webservice.. [15:50] the less packages, the more secure it is, isn't it? [15:50] asdwww: no [15:50] no. [15:51] hmm, why? [15:51] like why no [15:52] no active firewall, no secure login [15:52] asdwww: for one, applications like apparmor, polkit and iptables being removed is less secure [15:52] ohh, so these all are too removed in ubuntu server? [15:52] asdwww: again, what is the use case of this machine? [15:53] just a simple machine to browse internet [15:53] and serving as a host, when from time to time i'll be using virtualbox on it [15:54] asdwww: there are only 2 types of truly secure computers. 1. powered off and locked away. 2. a machine you have actively made secure. There's no such thing as a truly secure machine period and certainly none that are ready out of the box [15:54] asdwww: removing "connect to server" from nautilus will not make the machine any more secure then leaving it there [15:54] but the less attack surface (less packages), the better? [15:55] not really, no [15:56] hmm, maybe you are right [15:56] asdwww: just install ubuntu, put it behind a decent router and don't do anything stupid with it and you'll be just fine [15:56] Hello. I'm trying to get QuickSync working on Ubuntu 20.04 but can't get it to load properly. `/dev/dri` only contains card0 but not renderD128. I have ensured i965-va-driver is installed. `vainfo` returns `error: can't connect to X server!`. Any suggestions? [15:57] I have verified it's enabled in BIOS [15:59] ok, but i have two more questions then [15:59] axsuul, what howto are you using? [16:00] WHen i right click on the folder, i see "Local Network Share", does that mean samba is pre-installed on ubuntu? [16:00] asdwww: no [16:00] asdwww: not samba server, but the client can connect to smb/cifs shares [16:01] oerheks: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IntelQuickSyncVideo [16:01] sprinkled with various other articles [16:01] intel-media-va-driver-non-free and intel-media-va-driver are all you need, AFAIK [16:01] but when i right-click on "Local Network Share" I can see "Share this folder" option. How's that possible? Client cannot share a folder [16:02] asdwww, it is just a portal, could be smb or nfs.. [16:02] not configured = no security hole [16:02] asdwww: last I checked a couple years ago, it wants to use DAV for "sharing". Though back then I filed a bug that didn't actually have the necessary packages installed in order to do it. Not sure if it's been resolved [16:03] ok, you are right, when i click "share this folder", fresh ubuntu install says i need to install windows network sharing service [16:03] so it seems like samba is not installed [16:03] oerheks: is there another command I can run to verify it's enabled properly? running `lshw -C video` also doesn't return anything showing i965 is enabled [16:04] vainfo [16:04] apt-get remove nautilus-share ( is this a correct way to remove that position from my righ-click)? [16:04] axsuul: why do you think you need "QuickSync"? [16:04] oerheks: `vainfo` should still work even ssh'd? [16:04] leftyfb: It's just nice to have, since transcoding spikes my CPU when using Plex [16:05] axsuul: video performance/feature debug tools should be run locally, not over ssh [16:08] ok, it seems that nautilus-share was that. But as you said - it's just a package for listing "Local Network Share" on my right-click? It was not an actual sharing package, right? [16:09] asdwww: check all the nautilus tweaks in dconf-editor, if what you need isnt there... [16:09] asdwww, nope, still figuring out ? [16:10] lotuspsychje I checked all nautilus via dpkg -l, what's the difference? [16:10] oerheks yeah, so what exactly is nautilus-share [16:10] asdwww, at least install gufw, and enable firewall [16:11] asdwww: apt-cache show nautilus-share [16:11] nautilus is filemanager, share is share [16:12] OK, so please tell me if I understand this correctly. [16:13] WHen I right click on the folder in nautilus, I see "Local Network Share" option. The nautilus-share is just a package, which displays that option (so i can quicky share a folder), but it does not create a share. It's just like a shortcut to share a folder, right? [16:13] asdwww, it is just a portal, for sharing [16:13] not setup, but you can [16:14] ANd when I do not have samba installed (which, in a fresh install, I dont have), I cannot share folders. By removing nautilus-share, I've just removed that "Local Network Share" option in the menu [16:14] oerheks I dont understand the word "portal" in this context [16:15] portal like a shortcut? Position in the menu which redirects me to the different service, which does the sharing work? === ctrlbreak_MAD is now known as ctrlbreak [16:15] if you don't like to share, let it be [16:16] i dont want to have sharing capabilities in my machine [16:16] so why should i let it be? [16:16] because removal is such a hard job [16:16] and not configured means not exploitable. [16:17] Ohh, I see, but I can I at least remove this "portal" to sharing. So when i right-click on the folder I wont see "Local Share" option? [16:18] I believe this is exactly nautilus-share ? [16:18] right? [16:18] oerheks: do you know if `renderD128` is required in /dev/dri in order for QuickSync to work? [16:19] hallo, kennt sich jemand mit Delta.Chat aus? [16:19] axsuul, no idea there [16:20] badehose, this is ubuntu support [16:22] and last question, when I right click on any folder, I see "revert version" what exactly is that? [16:24] i have never seen "revert version" [16:27] a deja-dup thing , i guess [16:28] !ops | please ask ay-m126 to fix his connection, and join once [16:28] please ask ay-m126 to fix his connection, and join once: Help!

[16:31] asdwww, seriously... idk, maybe removing dejadup [16:31] weird i do not have such option :-D [16:31] must be a mint thiong, or pop-os [16:32] ioria that might do the trick.

[16:52] Idea behind using Xubuntu is if it is GNOME [16:52] asdwww, kinda like this : https://termbin.com/4l8a [16:52] oerheks I do [16:52] I looked in syslog before and it was some startx error so I dont know [16:52] And also sometimes it will get super slow [16:52] Just before it crashes [16:52] And then I can do ALT+CTRL+F1 to log out and log in again maybe [16:53] but why is my sourcelist different? [16:54] asdwww, i suggest to explore /var/log/installer/ [16:55] ok, i'll reinstall it once again, it will be quicker then debugging [16:55] so by default i should have "unievrse" in sourcelist, right? [16:55] your sourceslist is sparce, without comments and such [16:56] that's the whole content of it [16:57] i dont have anything else there [16:57] asdwww, yes, multiverse too (and partner but commented ) === ssh-agent is now known as Agent [16:58] original usr/share/doc/apt/examples/sources.list [16:58] without multiverse [16:59] it's the same as mine in /etc :o [17:00] then you do not run ubuntu .

[17:07] asdwww: besides whether it's ubuntu or not. It looks like it to me [17:08] leftyfb I got fres ubuntu install and my sourcelist looks like this: https://pastebin.com/Rtn9JP5n [17:08] we're wondering why there's no universe there, it should be by default [17:08] *fresh [17:09] it was modified at some point [17:09] either manually or by a script or you're running a modified version of ubuntu [17:09] it's fresh install, how so [17:10] asdwww: how did you install it? [17:10] where did you download the iso from? [17:10] downloaded .iso from ubuntu website [17:10] not sure what to tell you but that doesn't look stock to me [17:11] http://releases.ubuntu.com/focal/ [17:11] a daily build ? can you tell the name of the iso file ? asdwww [17:11] stock has comments and deb-src [17:11] http://releases.ubuntu.com/focal/ubuntu-20.04.3-desktop-amd64.iso [17:11] it was this one [17:12] can you show me how source list should look like on a fresh install? [17:12] i'll redownload and reinstall [17:12] just wanna make sure that it's correct right now [17:12] asdwww, maybe there is an explanation [17:12] asdwww, you selected the 'minimal install' in the menu [17:13] asdwww: either way, this is a sources.list from one of my machines. Feel free to go with this or some subset of it https://termbin.com/jggv [17:13] thanks!

[17:14] ok, so i'll create a full ubuntu install [17:14] ioria: selecting a minimal install shouldn't affect the sources list [17:14] afaik [17:15] minimal install just installs basic apps [17:15] and a web browser [17:15] ok guys, i'll reinstall it once again and be back later, thanks for your help! [17:15] ohh, one more question (last) [17:15] when i'll be installing nemo (instead of nautilus) [17:15] how should i remove the old file manager? [17:16] hmm indeed, minimal really changed stuff https://askubuntu.com/questions/1062167/why-is-the-apt-sources-different-between-a-minimal-and-desktop-install [17:16] weird [17:16] one should be warned for this. [17:17] well, honestly i never did so i can't tell [17:18] is there a channel where I can get help on rsync? [17:19] btw, speaking of file managers. Is there any linux command which I can see which file manager im currently using? [17:20] asdwww: click on the help -> about of the file manager you are using [17:20] im know it's nautilis right now, but just wondering if there's a way to check that [17:20] Are any of you using Dell Alienware?

[17:24] your help [17:25] any help would be appreciated. thanks [17:25] okay, now asking here: I need the opposite of rsync's --safe-links option, as I want symlinks in the source that point outside the tree to be resolved/followed to actual dirs, but those that are inside the tree (or relative) to be copied as symlinks. [17:27] rorym, install google chrome, and you can cast to your desktop too [17:27] * from android [17:28] rorym: just go to your history in youtube.com on your desktop.

I just wanna install every package via apt-get install [18:51] instead of using snaps [18:51] r3tt: not if you want gnome and/or firefox [18:52] r3tt: why don't you want to use snaps? [18:52] it's slower [18:52] unsecure (not sure who created snap before installing it) [18:52] r3tt: it is more secure [18:52] takes more disk size [18:53] also not true [18:53] well, it's less secure on the concept basis, as everyone can be publisher [18:53] and you can accidently download malicious snap from someone [18:53] with apt-get you dont have this problem [18:54] r3tt: don't "accidently" install a snap from an unknown publisher [18:54] a stupid typo can even make that === veemo is now known as VeemOfASus [18:54] and it's impossible to do that via apt-get [18:54] r3tt: ok, good luck [18:55] so in my opinion, snap is less secure [18:55] r3tt: there are other linux distributions that do not use or rely on snaps. Good luck [18:55] why do you mean that uninstalling snap means i wont be able to use firefox? [18:56] r3tt: in the recent versions of ubuntu, firefox is only available via snap, not apt [18:56] same with gnome [18:56] ohh, i see [18:56] ok then, thank you! === VeemOfASus is now known as veemo [20:00] no snap, hop distro [20:21] hi.. [20:35] hello .. [20:35] anybody here [20:37] hmm [20:39] ken-ken: probably someone is [20:39] hi matsaman [20:39] ken-ken: if you have a ubuntu support question just ask, offtopic chatter is in #ubuntu-offtopic === tscott_ is now known as tscott [20:41] Maik: thank you, not now. i just try this irc. i am new in ubuntu [20:42] use the offtopic channel please if you want to try out irc and chat with others ken-ken [20:43] ok. thank you. [21:05] Where does Ubuntu store the information from the integrated "Online Accounts" in gnome. [21:06] in ~/.local/share/gvfs-metadata [21:12] now, after trying a lot, did I get this right: 'rsync -l --copy-unsafe-links src dest' does resolve symlinks that point outside src-tree while keeping symlinks as symlinks if they point to something inside src-tree AND are relative?! [21:49] another one: I have an ext4-fs inside an encrypted block device that and I was used to be able to mount via gvfs-mount (eg nautilus), thus unlocking and mounting in one go. now, this fails. however I am able to unlock it manually and doing an fsck on that file-system says that the physical size was exactly one block smaller than the file-system that lives in it (according to the superblock) . What are possible causes and how to fix that? does it mean [21:49] simply one block died? [21:52] I'm on 20.04 and have an Intel Rocket Lake CPU w/ QuickSync. My issue is I'm currently unable to get QuickSync working, suspecting maybe my driver doesn't support my CPU. It looks like this is the driver `intel-vaa-driver` that corresponds to the Intel CPUs but Rocket Lake doesn't look like it's supported (I also checked 21.04 and it's also the same). Do I need to look for another driver? Here is `intel-vaa-driver` https://ubuntu.pkgs.org/20.04/ubuntu-unive [21:52] rse-amd64/intel-media-va-driver_20.1.1+dfsg1-1_amd64.deb.html [21:52] https://ubuntu.pkgs.org/20.04/ubuntu-universe-amd64/intel-media-va-driver_20.1.1+dfsg1-1_amd64.deb.html [22:50] * |INTERPOL| all libera chat is under interpol . here is the list of their server https://netsplit.de/servers/?net=Libera.Chat [22:51] * |INTERPOL| all libera chat is under interpol . here is the list of their server https://netsplit.de/servers/?net=Libera.Chat [22:52] thanks for kicking that user [22:53] That was a network-wide ban though. [22:53] that spam doesn't even make sense [22:53] Ah, okay [22:53] Yeah it was interesting O.o [22:53] Glad to know spambots still exist on IRC [22:54] oh yes, they haven't gone anywhere [23:18] axsuul: What's your actual goal? What are you trying to accomplish" [23:19] ? [23:19] jhutchins: To get QuickSync working in Ubuntu. However I believe the issue is that I need to run at least 21.04 since I have a Rocket Lake CPU and 20.04 doesn't support it [23:19] Yes, but what are you trying to DO with it? [23:19] jhutchins : Ah sorry, use hardware transcoding in Plex :) [23:20] jhutchins: Referring to this repo I found, it mentions that 21.04 is needed: https://github.com/jjarthur/media-box#jellyfin [23:20] axsuul: Ah, there we go. You expect it to go more slowly without "QuickSync"? [23:21] Yep I have a few friends who use my Plex server and whenever they transcode is spikes my CPU, so hardware encoding would ease the load [23:23] Well, that IS the reason you're paying for the CPU; for it to do work. [23:23] It looks like this should have found it's way into the kernel though. [23:23] Have you checked with kernel.org to see when support entered the mainstream builds? [23:25] jhutchins : I haven't although I'm not familiar with kernels, sorry. What should I be looking for? [23:26] axsuul: Well, I would guess mention/discussion of QuickSync, changlog entries, options in the kernel config files... [23:27] or would it be easier just to update the kernel and see if it works? [23:29] Ah just stumbled upon this thread, this looks like it applies to me: https://www.reddit.com/r/linuxhardware/comments/ms28mk/getting_any_linux_distro_to_work_using_latest/ [23:30] axsuul: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IntelQuickSyncVideo [23:31] jhutchins : thanks, I have gone through that article before and have tried all the steps. Unfortunately `vainfo` returns `error: can't connect to X server!` still, unless I'm missing something [23:32] also, `/dev/dri` is missing renderD128 [23:33] axsuul: It doesn't look like it should be a kernel issue with any recent kernel. More likely to be the capabilities of the tools and utilities you're using. [23:34] axsuul: Are you on standard x86 Intel hardware? [23:35] jhutchins : yep on standard hardware [23:35] You'd obviously want Intel graphics... [23:35] jhutchins : I did find this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1905466 [23:35] Launchpad bug 1905466 in linux (Ubuntu Hirsute) "drm/i915: Drop force_probe requirement for Rocket Lake" [Medium, Fix Released] [23:36] I would expect that the video driver would be an essential piece of the picture. [23:40] axsuul: It would seem like the current kernel should be compatible. All I can suggest it to continue to seek documentation for your particular chipset, even on other distros just to get clues. [23:47] jhutchins : does current kernel mean the latest stable kernel version? I'm on 5.4.0 [23:57] Looks like my kernel is super old [23:58] I guess it doesn't hurt to do a `apt get-install linux-generic-hwe-20.04` to upgrade it?
