jhutchinssem: Ok, you probably need to do the dkms install of the nvidia driver that covers the 340.  I'm not sure if that's available in the extended drivers for Ubuntu or not.  You've probably done it before.02:03
jhutchinsThere's a kernel module that has to be updated to the release point of your chipset, otherwise it can't find the adddress to load it.  You can find the messages about that in dmesg - pretty sure the kernel module is "nv".02:03
locsmifHi all. Why are all ISO mirrors worldwide so slow? Is it no longer possible to download an ISO at speeds of >1MB/s?03:05
locsmifEven the torrents fluctuate between 4MB/s (my subscription max) and 50Kb/s... speedtest is completely normal03:05

axsuulI had an issue this evening where my server completely stopped responding and the only way past it was to reboot. The console had this before I rebooted: https://www.dropbox.com/s/915qcfp6feocoe3/console.jpg?dl=0  but not sure what to pinpoint as the root cause. What are you guys' thoughts?03:22
guivercaxsuul, I'd check hardware (SMART, PSU etc) as all i see are IO errors on what looks like nvme/disk devices03:29
axsuulguiverc : thank you, will investigate those03:30
AugustusCaesar24how do you set python 3.9 as the default python of ubuntu?03:45
AugustusCaesar24I tried                   alias python='/usr/bin/python3.9'                    and then it works, but when I reboot the system, it keeps defaulting to 3.603:46
FryuniIf you just want the default for running on the terminal add that exact line at the end of `~/.bash_aliases`03:47
AugustusCaesar24I want it to use python 3.9 for everything03:47
AugustusCaesar24I am running a python program on the server and it requires it to use python 3.903:48
FryuniIf you run `ls -l /usr/bin/python*` you'll see that there are multiple python executable (and related). Normally `/usr/bin/python` is just a link to an actual python executable. You can delete it and create a new one pointing to `/usr/bin/python3.9`03:52
AugustusCaesar24would it be safe to do that?03:52
FryuniIf the default is pointing to another 3.x version, then pretty much yes, there should not be any breaking changes. If the default is python2 then there might be services depending on that, the best-practice would be to use `python2` but if there are any depending on `python` being version 2 they would break03:55

rfmmmx_in_orbit,  it depends on how you did your current install.  If you used lvm or zfs, you can just span the volume group or zpool over the new space.  if not it's quite a bit more complicated (and you can't easily make it just one big file system)06:54
alphaclone the old partition to the new drive and then expand the new partition. I don't know the steps for that07:03
mmx_in_orbitokay thanks y'all07:18
tomreynfuze: in case you did not notice: the libphobos2-ldc-shared82 package alpha pointed you to is not an ubuntu package, and thus may not be compatible to your system. installing packages from random sources without verifying their authenticity and their origin is a security issue.07:30
tomreynyou may want to notify the onedrive client software developer (abraunegg) that their apt repository is not suitable for your ubuntu release (unless their documentation already states that)07:31

tomreynfuze: https://downloadcontent.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/npreining:/debian-ubuntu-onedrive/xUbuntu_21.10/Packages says that package "onedrive" version 2.4.15-1~np1 depends on "libphobos2-ldc-shared94" version 1:1.24.0 or greater. So it's unclear why your system is looking for package "libphobos2-ldc-shared82" in the error message you posted: "E: Package 'libphobos2-ldc-shared82' has no installation candidate"07:39
tomreynpackage "libphobos2-ldc-shared94" is available in Ubuntu 21.10 from the "universe" repository07:39

jwhitmoreHello all, I've a number of headless devices running Ubuntu 20,04 and a very few of them are reporting an issue in /var/log/auth.log that /dev/console is not a tty. I've searched for that error online, but all I can get is info about what a tty is and what the console is. But thinking helpful on that error. Like I say only a few are afected and all of them it appears that /dev/console is setup correctly with device12:26
jwhitmorenumbers "tty 5"12:26
jwhitmoregrub.cgf has a linux line which sets two entries for console, console=tty0 and console=ttyS012:28
jwhitmoreSorry /dev/console device numbers are 5, 1  Actually that might be the issue /dev/tty0 is 4, 0 and /dev/ttyS0 is 4, 64. I'll check if that is the problem pattern across the board12:32

cart_manWhich is the best Virtual Desktop software for Ubuntu 20?  I want to be able to swap desktops. I thought this came standar on Ubuntu?13:18
jchittumjwhitmore: by default, Ubuntu server will set the console to tty0 and ttyS0 or tty1 and ttyS0. If you're running on hardware, sometimes the physical connections can be different. Or there can be multiple physical outputs, and the device mapping get wonky13:20
jwhitmorejchittum, thank you. I was looking for device numbers 5,1 but even on working systems I have those device numbers reported from 'ls- -l' so it's not that. I agree with your 'wonky' but I'm not sure where the kernel marries a device number to a physical port. I guess I need to look at commands for hardware info to see if the issue is in some discrepency there13:25
jchittumjwhitmore: in case you hadn't found the kernel docs on tty's: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v4.14/admin-guide/serial-console.html?highlight=serial%20console13:35
jchittumi'm re-reviewing them now. I can't remember if they give details on the mappings. but you can check in `/sys/class/tty/*` to see mappings of tty to device13:36
jchittuman example from my laptop: ls -al /sys/class/tty/tty1  :  rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Jan  7 09:16 /sys/class/tty/tty1 -> ../../devices/virtual/tty/tty113:36
jchittumso it's a mismatch between the real console and virtual console. so it might be that you can just set the `grub.cfg` terminal line to the correct virtual mapping, and be fixed13:37
jwhitmoreThanks for the Kernel docs I'll go through them. if I list /sys/class/tty/console I get /sys/class/tty/console -> ../../devices/virtual/tty/console13:44
jwhitmoreThat points to a device with numbers 5,1 again13:44

sarnoldGuest4bingood: cool; 20.04 wouldn't be a bad choice. that'll give you a few years before it reaches end of life20:19
matsamanGuest4bingood: 20.04 is the latest "LTS" release20:19
leftyfbGuest4bingood: I always recommend the latest LTS release, which is currently Ubuntu 20.0420:19
Guest4bingoodleftyfb : manly i willneed to use it for libreoffice calc because ecxcel is very slow in microsft windows20:21
Guest4bingoodleftyfb ; mainly*20:21
leftyfbGuest4bingood: ok? Feel free to take same suggestion from 3 individuals on the requested advice above. Good luck20:22
nektroin the event it was indeed a hardware failure that just so happen to line up right after the update, any recommendations on how I would go about diagnosing this20:23
leftyfbnektro: try #hardware. Contact your hardware vendor. Google20:23
CodeMouse92nektro: By the way, do you know what updated in that apt update?20:24
CodeMouse92Ah...wait, nm, I see above that you can't get to POST or BIOS, so yeah...not related. Nothing managed/updated by apt can affect the BIOS/UEFI that fundamentally.20:25
Guest4bingoodleftyfb,sarnold  : please which link can i get the original iso from for 20.04 lubuntu that will work for my machine specs?20:25
leftyfbGuest4bingood: ubuntu.com20:26
leftyfbGuest4bingood: https://ubuntu.com/download/flavours20:26
sarnoldGuest4bingood: it's useful to start from https://ubuntu.com/download -- it'll be a few clicks away from any of the flavours, architectures, etc20:27
nektroCodeMouse92: not everything but I know linux generic went from 5.11.0.31 to 5.11.0.4420:27
nektroqemu updated too which is why I ran the update in the first place20:27
CodeMouse92nektro: I'll PM you, this is probably hardware related.20:27
winircuser-374Good Afternoon Team! anyone have experience setting up lamp or lemp on Ubuntu 20.04 have a few questions20:51

nshirelaptopshouldn't chown --reference=referencefile newfile work to clone permissions?21:08
sarnoldheh, I assume nshirelaptop figured out the answer moments after hitting enter..21:10
nshirelaptopnot sure how to clone file permissions from one to another21:12
sarnoldnshirelaptop: irc works best if you stick around for a while :)21:13
sarnoldnshirelaptop: note chmod also has a --reference21:13
nshirelaptopit would be nice if my connection were to stick around for a while too21:14
nshirelaptop15mi microwave links aren't the best21:14
sarnoldouch :)21:14
sarnoldit might be worth a VM somewhere to run an irc client, hehe21:15
leftyfbor a bouncer21:15
nshirelaptopone of the things I've been meaning to get my rpi doing21:15
sarnoldis the rpi on the happy or the sad side of a microwave radio link?21:16
nshirelaptop"chmod -reference=index.html notch.html      chmod: invalid mode: ‘-reference=index.html’ "21:16
nshirelaptophappy side with 500/500 fiber21:16
nshirelaptopwait is the second file the one that the permissions get copied FROM?21:17
tomreyn--reference not -reference21:17
nektrofrom -> to21:17
sarnoldheh, I suggest you also need a better font for your irc client ;)21:18
nshirelaptopI swear I initially did two hyphens21:18
nshirelaptopwell I guess this problem now moves to nginx support21:20
nshirelaptopgetting 404 despite them having the same perms and ownership and contents21:20
leftyfbnshirelaptop: try #ubuntu-server21:21
sarnoldnshirelaptop: namei -l on the path may be useful21:21
nshirelaptopwell now I'm really confused. "http://localhost" in address bar shows index.html, but http://localhost/index.html doesn't21:23
nshirelaptopwill have to look into it later21:23
nshirelaptopI'll leave irc connected this time (hopefully)21:23

marc_can anyone tell me how i add performance to the power profile in ubuntu22:01
semMy PC used to only boot with the "noapic" boot option, but now, some 10-15 years later, it can boot without that kernel option. I don't know much about APIC (beyond what I searched)22:04
semWhy would my PC not have worked with apic before, but now it does22:04
semThe reason I'm interested is because I get random crashes sometimes (but can't reproduce consistently)22:05
leftyfbsem: improvements in the linux kernel?22:05
semYeah that's what I was wondering, has the kernel been improving on apic ?22:06
leftyfbsem: I would hope in 10-15 years improvements have been made22:06
semlike, if my PC boots at all, probably would not be helped by booting with "noapic" or "nolapic" options22:06
semeven if that used to be required22:06
marc_why is unbuntu's power managment so useless22:07
leftyfbmarc_: that isn't a valid support question22:07
marc_i think it is22:08
marc_In fact i would go as far to say that this power mangment isnt even fit for purpose22:09
semSanity check: to have the PC remember my last choice in GRUB, I have to have BOTH lines "GRUB_DEFAULT=saved" AND "GRUB_SAVEDEFAULT=true"22:10
Bashing-omsem: ACPI issues: http://iam.tj/prototype/enhancements/Windows-acpi_osi.html may be a big help.22:15
=== PCLoadLetter is now known as Hash
jchittum<sigh> i was about to ask marc_ some questions, like Ubuntu version and hardware. Because some of the profile things are tied to hardware capabilities, I believe. So it's possible that version + kernel + hardware it may not be a profile available22:23
bobdobbsHi. When I try to to run 'apt-get upgrade' I get this output as apt fails: http://pastie.org/p/5FIjqpzG9YHc18OXxkEM1v23:01
bobdobbsHow can I fix this error?23:01
bobdobbsI tried manually deleting the problem file. But that didn't work. I get the same error23:03
leftyfbbobdobbs: sudo apt clean23:03
bobdobbsleftyfb: thanks23:03
sarnoldI suggest deleting one or the other of them23:04
Bashing-ombobdobbs: PPA conflict ? what shows ' apt policy emacs-common ' ?23:04
leftyfbbobdobbs: looks like you have emacs27-common installed which isn't a supported application. That is causing the problem23:04
leftyfbit's emacs27-common from the Kevin Kelley PPA23:04
leftyfb(~kelleyk)23:05
bobdobbsok, I tried deleting the file and re-running apt-get update --fix-missing install. I still get the same error23:05
bobdobbsYes, I installed emacs27 from a repo. Can't remember which PPA23:05
leftyfbbobdobbs: sudo apt remove emacs27-common   # though I suggest running ppa-purge ppa:kelleyk/emacs   # which will remove all of the packages installed from ppa:kelleyk/emacs along with the PPA23:05
bobdobbsbut I want to keep emacs2723:06
sarnoldthen purge emacs-common23:06
leftyfbbobdobbs: then contact ppa:kelleyk/emacs for support with the conflicts the package creates23:06
bobdobbs"apt-get purge emacs-common" also results in the same erro23:07
sarnoldhrm, I had hoped it'd be able to cope with that :/23:08
nshirelaptop2in case anyone wondered about my nginx permission issue, apparently I assumed it read from the incorrect directory, it actually reads from /var/www/html by default23:08
leftyfbbobdobbs: the ppa:kelleyk/emacs repo is causing these problems. Remove the repo and the packages you installed from it or continue to have a broken system23:08
bobdobbsdamn. ok. I guess an outdated emacs is better than broken package management23:09
bobdobbsKinda sucks, cos I've had to spend most of the last three days configuring emacs23:10
bobdobbsbut no.. "apt-get remove emacs27" also gives the same error!23:11
Bashing-om!ppa-purge | bobdobbs23:12
ubottubobdobbs: To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory> » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html23:12
bobdobbstrouble is... I can't install ppa-purge... because apt won't install anything23:13
Jeremy31bobdobbs: then find the file that the PPA is listed in and remove the listing23:14
bobdobbshow do I do that?23:15
Jeremy31bobdobbs: look in the /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ directory23:16
leftyfbbobdobbs: sudo apt remove --purge emacs27-common 23:16
bobdobbsleftyfb: apt says it can't find the PPA I installed23:17
bobdobbsI'm currently searching the sources.list.d directory23:17
leftyfbbobdobbs: sudo apt remove --purge emacs27-common23:18
sarnoldbobdobbs: the usual way to solve this problem is to add a *bunch* of package names to the apt purge command lines: apt-get purge emacs27-common emacs-common ... chances are good some other package requires those, and will complain, so you add that package to the command and try again23:19
bobdobbsok, I found files related to that PPA in the source.list.d directory. Now running "apt-get update"23:19
leftyfbYou still need to purge emacs27-common23:20
royhola a tod@s23:21
bobdobbssarnold: I can't uninstall or purge anything with apt at the moment. Any 'apt remove' operation fails with message about uninstalled packages. Any attempt to install them results in the error related to emacs23:22

blahboybazDoes the software updater dialogue (gui) call packages something different (treat naming differently) than the output on the cmomand line when you run  $ sudo apt upgrade  ?23:24
gryi mean, http://pastie.org/p/48q4bslh6eowP480oEdZEq/raw23:24
rfmthe trouble bobdobbs is having is that two packages own the same file, it's not dependency problems, so I think fooling around at the apt level is friutless.  need to use dpkg to remove one of the packages, probably requireing --force=overwrite.23:24
bobdobbsrfm: how do I do that?23:25
rfmI haven't had to deal with stuff like this since I quit trying to run Debian unstable ten years ago..23:25
royGracias ubottu, hasta la próxima..23:27
leftyfbbobdobbs: sudo dpkg -r emacs27-common23:28
rfmbobdobs, but "sudp dpkg -r --force=overwrite emacs-common" might be it (removing the ubunut emacs-common instead of the ppa emacs27-common since you want that one)23:29
=== hays is now known as h_
bobdobbs'dpkg -r emacs27-common' results in this output: http://pastie.org/p/2hyWI4rqQWNPOVQdfeXNu123:29
bobdobbsThat's so annoying! "I can't uninstall this package because another package that it needs isn't installed." I guess there's a good reason for this, but it seems pretty paradoxical.23:30
leftyfbsudo dpkg -r emacs27-common emacs27 emacs-gtk emacs-el emacs-bin-common23:31

leftyfbI didn't say paste the entire output of the error23:40
leftyfbYou need to pick out the individual package names from http://pastie.org/p/6IlxSlgz21W3ZWA45NTnk9 and list them one at a time separated by a space23:41
bobdobbsoh. sorry23:41
bobdobbsok, so 'dpkg -r  emacs-bin-common emacs27-common emacs27 emacs-gtk'23:43
bobdobbsThis results in: http://pastie.org/p/3ma2e6sjMiFrkVE0Ll9LZB23:43
leftyfbthat is not all of the packages listed23:45
sarnoldadd elpa-diminish elpa-async emacs emacs-gtk emacs-bin-common and try again23:45

bobdobbsah, ok23:46

leftyfbThis is what we call dependency hell23:51
bobdobbskk23:51
leftyfbYou have to keep going down the rabbit hole until it’s fixed or you come across packages it wants to remove that it shouldn’t23:52
leftyfbThen you reinstall Ubuntu23:52
bobdobbshttp://pastie.org/p/4B1P9Z2dt2vNl1CILwZ5oS23:52
bobdobbsleftyfb: yeah, I've been in that position a few times: having to reinstall ubuntu because I broke apt.23:53
bobdobbsI haven't had to do that in quite a few years now though23:53
sarnoldonce you're done with this, don't forget to ask the author of the ppa to put a Conflicts: line in place to prevent this from happening to other people23:54
bobdobbssarnold: I'm not entirely sure what that means, but yeah. I'll let him know that *something* caused a major headache23:55
leftyfbelpa-eproject23:55
bobdobbs... and that I needed the help of people in the community who actually understand how apt works23:55
bobdobbshttp://pastie.org/p/6PH1zGbZqIKHhE7e0o7CvO23:56
leftyfbList elpa-eproject before elpa-helm23:58
