Tonight I turned on my system, and all of the sudden when I press WindowsKey(Super) and Left/Right arrow keys, it switches TTYs to various other login prompts. This is a huge problem as this keybind is what I use in my window manager. It has never switched TTY until today.

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [04:24] Hey all. I was able to Google and fix the problem I encountered earlier, but I have a new problem now that has kind of been chronic. I only have one sound card that outputs to several different device numbers... The default device is headphone jack. [04:25] I want to change my default device from the headphone jack to HDMI sound. There are plenty of answers on the web how to set the default sound card, but I can't find a solution to setting the default sound *device* on the same sound card [04:25] noobaroo: doesn't the audio mixer have an option for this? [04:28] I'm using ALSA [04:31] noobaroo: what application do you use to control sound sources? [04:31] volumeicon-alsa [04:32] Back in 2016 I had a USB headset that registered as a separate sound card. I just slipped a .asoundrc file in my home folder and changed 0 to 1 and back again whenever I wanted to switch [04:33] But my problem now is, I want to change default *device* It's crazy how uncommon that is on a google search... [04:36] emmmm [04:37] USB headset？ [04:38] Yeah, a Turtle Beach headphones with mic. USB bluetooth I think. If not, USB wireless in some other way. [04:39] That's irrelevant, though. It's been a long time since I had that thing. My point is, it's easy to switch sound cards. Much harder (or at least, much less information) on how to switch devices [04:43] Have you tried changing the configuration file? [04:45] I have [04:46] I have a raspberry pi. [04:47] .asoundrc is a little complicated for me to understand the workings. I guess that's why I'm here. [04:48] I can only find information how to set up .asoundrc for setting the default card.

[10:35] I thought snaps were supposed to be safer, not 100 % sure way of killing your computer :D [10:37] giving power button also means that many files are now corrupted etc even though running ext4. [10:37] Alt+SysRq+REISUB may be safer, though it doesn't always work [10:39] nyuszika7h: yea gotta try that :D it still doesn't really help much, I had a form open in web browser and needed to throw in an attachment I'd receive in telegram...

[11:06] It is possible to install old lubuntu-desktop 16.04 with LXDE desktop environment in Ubuntu Server 20.04? [11:07] Dimitris, lubuntu-desktop contains LXQt & has since 18.10; LXDE is available but isn't packaged by Lubuntu (it's been pure upstream Debian LXDE since 18.10) [11:08] Yes it's possible; but as no longer configured by Lubuntu team; it maybe slightly different to 18.04 or before.. but yes it does work on 20.04/focal [11:09] thanks guiverc, so, suggest me to install xfce better? [11:11] What you use is your choice; Xfce is GTK3 now so a lot heavier than it was; LXDE is (deprecated) GTK2 still thus lighter assuming no GTK3/Qt5 apps are used... LXDE or Xfce or other is your choice; Xfce is managed by the Xubuntu team whee as LXDE as stated is now just upstream Debian (but it works; I tested it) [11:11] s/whee/where ^ [11:14] angelacrust: doesn't differ from any other Unix use - you must always provide a complete file name, the extensions are not special... [11:14] gotcha [11:14] thanks [11:15] thanks for info guiverc [11:15] you're most welcome [11:16] I have to decide now which is better for me :P [11:26] Dimitris, I just noticed you asked in #lubuntu; LXDE is deprecated code; parts were ported to GTK3 where the heaviness was blogged about; another port was made to Qt5 & it was much lighter/faster leading to GTK3 port being abandoned & devs joining with Razor-Qt creating new LXQt Project.. Lubuntu switched to that replacement LXQt desktop in 18.10 [11:29] you have right, I did not know this before asking the question [11:48] hi [11:48] hy [12:15] My issue is fixed, I thought I'd leave this message as a courtesy.

If so how would I go about doing it [16:46] dead chat xd [16:46] @jayFidds by installing it [16:47] hi [16:48] I understand that lol. I can't find any tutorials on "how to" [16:49] jayFidds: use the version that comes with 21.10. replacing gnome will probably break a lot of stuff [16:49] can ubuntu work with raspberry [16:49] and there is no supported way to do that anyway [16:49] plon: https://ubuntu.com/download/raspberry-pi [16:50] what is the best version [16:50] thank you [16:50] there is no "best" version. only the one that fits your needs best. so read the page [16:51] plon, why not rp pi os? [16:51] PTNapivoski: please discuss in #raspberrypi [16:51] OK [16:51] we can't speak ... [16:51] Understandable thanks. My main reason for wanting the latest version is the changes made to nautilus. I do allot of file renaming and can't stand having to right click and navigate a menu to simply rename a file. The latest version addressed this issue by implementing left click renaming [16:52] jayFidds: better off scripting it [16:53] jayFidds, which version specifically? (could check if jammy's got it -- the current dailies are *fairly* stable, although I've got a swapfile bug to crush, but it's trivial to work around) [16:53] I honestly have no clue how to do that... I've been using Ubuntu for over 10 years. I'm not a power user at all [16:53] jayFidds: whats wrong with pressing F2? [16:54] is faster ubuntu on raspberry [16:55] I'm trying to avoid using my keyboard at all. I rename on average 500-1200 files a day. I simply copy and paste the given file name. That's allot of keyboard use [16:56] jayFidds: that is the opposite of being productive [16:56] have a nice day [16:56] jayFidds: you would benefit from learning some simple shell scripting [16:57] a bash script or something like krename seems to be a much bettter way to do that then [16:57] jayFidds, nautilus is 40.2 in impish, 41.2 in jammy -- in case you can find out which version implements the functionality you want [16:58] jayFidds: https://www.makeuseof.com/batch-rename-files-in-linux/ [16:59] i would like to know how it works sylpheed [17:00] plon: you would like to know how what worked?

[18:14] certificates* [18:14] #openssl? [18:15] here, or #ubuntu-server, or #ubuntu-security, depending upon the question.. [18:16] I asked there, hope nobody minds I will copy it here also [18:16] Could someone please advise how one can generate a certificate with openssl command line and add the KeyUsage under the [critical] section? I have used the following command to generate one but it's under the non critical section openssl req -newkey rsa:4096 -nodes -addext "keyUsage = digitalSignature, keyEncipherment" -keyout domain.key -x509 -days 3650 -out domain.cer [18:19] PCatinean: I've only ever seen them set from a .cnf file, https://www.openssl.org/docs/manmaster/man5/x509v3_config.html has some examples of how to mark individual fields as critical [18:19] PCatinean: you might be able to make this "critical, .." thing work on the command line, too, but if you've already got a cnf for this, it might be easier to just go with it? heh [18:19] sarnold, so I need to make a .cnf file and reference it from openssl [18:20] Did not use a cnf file, command I used is the one above that's all. [18:20] heh, the only hit for 'critical' on https://www.openssl.org/docs/man3.0/man1/openssl-req.html is in a cnf file, too [18:23] PCatinean: why not just use letsencrypt? [18:25] I need some help; I'm running 20.04 on a 2021 Thinkpad, currently plugged into AC power via USB-C pd, and I swear it feels laggy in all aspects of using the system even if nothing is running. For example current uptime shows 0.61, 1.02, 1.86 but only running slack, hexchat, and terminal. 6 core i7-710U. [18:26] I swear there is significant input delay in almost everything, but I don't know where to look or see what's wrong or quantify it [18:26] kenperkins: are you on xorg or wayland? [18:26] Default 20.04 configuration, I think that means xorg, let me grep ps just to be sure [18:27] yes xorg [18:28] kenperkins: video drivers [18:29] where would I start? > configuration: driver=i915 latency=0 [18:29] from lshw -C display [18:30] kenperkins: what about your current kernel version? [18:30] 5.13.0-28-generic [18:30] kenperkins: see if killing slack helps. I know the snap version of that caused a lot of load on my machine [18:30] k [18:31] how would I quantify that after killing slack [18:31] considering this was like a $2500 laptop, I'm pretty grumpy that it's so damn slow in regular tasks [18:31] lel [18:32] (guess I'll never buy the high model again) [18:32] kenperkins: spend more time troubleshooting the issue and less complaining about it. Complaining is unproductive [18:32] kenperkins: quantifying is comparing before and after the issues you were seeing [18:32] kenperkins: try not running slack and see what happens? no one has ever said "wow slack is lightweight and so responsive" [18:33] :thumbs: apologies for the rant. I do want to troubleshoot but I'm still a bit of a rookie when it comes to lower level objective analysis. [18:34] kenperkins: maybe sharing a dmesg could also enlighten the volunteers a bit more whats happening in your system [18:34] sure, what part? or just dump to pastebin/etc [18:34] yes the whole thing please kenperkins [18:37] https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/Rk5kZRB3hB/ [18:41] kenperkins, what thinkpad is that? [18:41] Thinkpad X1 v7 [18:41] thanks... [18:41] what could the reason be for a script not running as executed per ./script or sudo ./script ? [18:42] VIA: file permssions (+x) [18:42] the error given is" bash: ./script: Permission denied" [18:42] but .. ? it can access it clearly [18:42] kenperkins: dont think ive seen these errors before; i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm] [ENCODER:94:DDI A/PHY A] is disabled/in DSI mode with an ungated DDI clock, gate it [18:42] VIA: chmod +x script [18:43] lotuspsychje, "gate it" ?

I have 3 aps in the house. handoff or whatever it's call [18:46] Yea, I saw that error atmoic update when I saw dmesg, but no idea what that is [18:47] that'll be video driver / video card problem, not wireless [18:47] kenperkins: dont think so, there's a lot of them, i would rather suspect an iwlwifi combo on kernel 5.13 [18:47] sarnold, yea I knew it was a video error the dmesg line is prefixed with i915 [18:47] just don't know what it means [18:48] so you got a bit of everything going in there [18:48] :( [18:48] kenperkins: I'm not sure either, but it feels a lot like it'd be 'tearing' or other glitches, that it wasn't able to handle a video update in time [18:49] I don't think that's the underlying slow system performance; could it just be the cpu clock speed? this is a 15w part, for example right now: https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/zYD872qH6c/ [18:49] okies thanksalot lotuspsychje yoll thats about the root of it! [18:50] i get an array of lines with other filnames the script works with, can i expect the cause being the same? they also need +x ? [18:50] how can i force the max clockspeed to test? [18:51] why would something that just sits there need to be executeable. it totally adds up for the first one though [18:51] VIA: only if you're trying to execute the files [18:51] kenperkins: dont think the sluggishness is from cpu [18:51] kenperkins: you could set the performance cpu governor, that's worth a try [18:51] VIA: https://linuxfoundation.org/blog/classic-sysadmin-understanding-linux-file-permissions/ [18:51] rather try what sarnold & leftyfb adviced a without slack experience, and maybe test a new user to compare too [18:51] no im not, some are certificates some other junk and a config file thats empty as of yet [18:52] could it be a messed up power configuration? how would I verify which profile I'm on or it's configuraiton (I cna't remember what I did when I set this up originally) [18:52] i dont think certs get executed? maybe the erorr resolves once i havea proper config in place [18:52] VIA: you only need +x if you need to execute a file [18:52] VIA: you might be best served in #bash if you need help with shell scripting [18:53] +x needs for directories too, for listing of it.

[19:03] Trying to solve problem with leftyfb [19:03] ... [19:03] kenperkins: note that 21.10 is a non -LTS if you want a more stable daily driver, pick LTS [19:04] leftyfb it is not hardware. i tried your solution to see if it was hardware by using live distro. smart idea but it makes my screen brighter. so i realize it is setting issues on the ubuntu [19:04] American: xrandr --output $(xrandr -q | awk '/ connected/ {print $1}') --brightness 1 [19:04] lotuspsychje, I'm aware 20.04 is LTS, I'm just trying to figure out what I can isolate or change to figure out if I'm imagining a problem or it's real [19:05] kenperkins: well you are at your machine, does it feel less laggy now your dmesg calmed down? [19:06] i do feel that there is some perceptable (non-zero) input lag as an example. it does not feel as fast as my desktop or mbp for typing at a terminal for example., [19:07] I also haven't started slack since I rebooted (which I use for work), but someone above made a comment re: snap slack performance [19:07] kenperkins: yeah, but we cant compare a lenovo with your desktop performance right [19:07] @leftyfb, made that reference [19:07] American: this is a support channel for everyone. Do not tell others seeking help to "shut up". Please do not PM me either [19:08] American: you have been muted by one of the channel ops for being disrespectful [19:08] Understood that difference machines have difference characteristics, but my kids have similar acer laptops that feel much quicker in everyday tasks, even though they're cheap machines by comparison. [19:10] American: did the command I give you adjust your brightness? [19:10] kenperkins: can we see a paste of systemd-analyze blame and systemd-analyze critical-chain [19:10] Am i allowed to speak? [19:10] American: yes [19:10] I tried the command and it showed no difference in the brightness of the screen [19:10] I apologize to the room if i was rude. [19:11] American: xrandr --output $(xrandr -q | awk '/ connected/ {print $1}') --brightness .5 [19:11] American: does that make it dimmer? [19:11] Yes [19:11] blame: https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/ywCF9Mpk7z/ critical-chain: https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/5xPsGGYvx8/ [19:11] American: xrandr --output $(xrandr -q | awk '/ connected/ {print $1}') --brightness 2 [19:11] Much better [19:12] @lotuspsychje, ^ not sure what I'm looking at here, unfamiliar with this one [19:12] leftyfb, the purpose of this certificate is to send as2 encrypted messages, can I generate one from Lentsencrypt for that purpose? [19:12] looks pretty sane also kenperkins [19:12] American: did you try adjusting the brightness using the brightness controls on your laptop keyboard? [19:13] kenperkins: i wanted to see if something could have bottlenecked userland [19:13] PCatinean: technically, yes [19:13] leftyfb thank you my friend. you have showed me what i needed. i apologize for being rude to the other member of this club [19:13] i wish you a good day and thank you for your brain [19:13] leftyfb, so I would generate one using a specific domain then use the private key for encrypting the messages? [19:14] PCatinean: only if the other side uses the letsencrypt CA to decrypt. Not being a web browser, it might not be the proper solution [19:15] They are handed the public key so then I'm not sure if this works [19:16] how can I tell if I'm on slack snap? `snap connections` doesn't show it, apt list --installed shows slack-desktop/jessie,now 4.23.0 amd64 [installed] [19:17] kenperkins, snap list [19:17] kenperkins, 'which slack' might reveal [19:17] kenperkins: looks like you have the deb package which is what I'm using now [19:17] usually the path would be /snap/bin/slack [19:17] kenperkins: did killing snap make any difference for you? [19:18] yea it's /usr/bin/slack, and it's not listed in ubuntu software UI, so I'm guessing I downloaded the deb at some point [19:18] killing which snap? I don't appear to have slack via snap [19:18] sorry, killing slack [19:18] Guys. How to fix this sh..t? The following packages have unmet dependencies: [19:18] vim : Depends: vim-common (= 2:8.1.2269-1ubuntu5.7) but 2:8.2.0716-3ubuntu2 is to be installed [19:18] E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. [19:19] @leftyfb, not a ton, not the input lag, but I'm going to sit on it for a bit and see. I'm also going to update my firmware. brb [19:20] yoll, what gives this message? [19:21] yoll: ( cat /etc/os-release ; apt-cache policy vim-common ) | nc termbin.com 9999 [19:22] hello hello! [19:22] ive been wondering if i can use the ubuntu logo for my project, but sadly wikipedia says its copyrighted :( [19:23] frost-core: contact Canonical [19:23] apt install vim [19:23] yoll: ( cat /etc/os-release ; apt-cache policy vim-common ) | nc termbin.com 9999 [19:23] leftyfb : umm, how can i ? [19:23] leftyfb: https://termbin.com/j812 [19:23] frost-core: https://ubuntu.com/contact-us first result on google for "contact Canonical" [19:24] umm i literally cant, because i dont really want to [19:24] yoll: you didn't run what I told you. Regardless, you are running an EOL release. You need to upgrade [19:24] frost-core: ok, good luck [19:25] apparently the firmware update doesn't work :D [19:25] leftyfb : also, can i credit canonical? [19:25] if i can [19:26] frost-core: contact Canonical for legal matters regarding their trademarks. This isn't the appropriate place [19:27] leftyfb : also, how did projects like ubuntu cinnamon get the logo modified? [19:27] leftyfb: need dist-upgrade? [19:28] !eolupgrades | yoll [19:28] yoll: End-Of-Life is when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop. Make sure to update Ubuntu before it goes EOL so you get updates promptly for newly-discovered security vulnerabilities. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOL and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more info. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades [19:28] frost-core: contact Canonical for legal matters regarding their trademarks. This isn't the appropriate place [19:28] frost-core: we've been through the whole matter not too long ago in offtopic [19:28] ok sorry [19:29] Hello, is it necessary to upgrade ubuntu to a newer version to have GLIBCXX_3.4.29 version of the library ? [19:36] ok coming back to cpu clock speed, from the internet my i7-10710u should clock up as high as 4.7ghz on one core or 3.9 across all six, but I can't get lscpu or /proc/cpuinfo to show higher than 1600MHz [19:37] kenperkins: your CPU probably scales as needed [19:37] but if I'm running a stress test, shouldn't that force it up? [19:37] depends on what you're stressing [19:37] I've never seen it go above 1600 [20:01] certainly seems that it's not boosting correctly, I'd like to dig in when I get back. how would I disable scaling and force a specific frequency to test? [20:05] kenperkins: check find /sys/devices/system/cpu -name '*gov*' to find the directories where the governors are set; try setting to performance (that might just go full-tilt without any choices, though) -- and then look for scaling_min_freq scaling_max_freq files === Guest2971 is now known as American [20:19] I was talking to a friend previously here. I have another question with the brightness please [20:19] I would appreciate the guidance [20:19] !ask | American [20:19] American: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [20:20] leftyfb my friend i dont understand why when i watch the netflix it looks too bright. i play with the numbers but it looks wrong still. it has a brightness that makes it look distorted [20:20]
