Alpha[m]leftyfb: Yes02:26
Alpha[m]leftyfb: Sorry.. Tried running Chrome as a GUI app in Windows 10 using WSL202:27
ArchDaveremote desktop into a hardware install of linux seems best to me so far02:28
Alpha[m]ArchDave: What's the end goal?02:28
ArchDaveaccessing multiple systems from one main desktop PC02:29
Alpha[m]If I'm on a Windows machine and need to access linux I use X2Go02:29
ArchDaveone set of monitors02:30
leftyfbArchDave: what do you need running on the remote Ubuntu desktop?02:30
ArchDavethe usual desktop apps02:31
leftyfbArchDave: why not run those on your machine Windows machine?02:32
ArchDaveubuntu has a better Freecell, I kid02:32
leftyfbsorry, main Windows machine02:32
ArchDaveit's really more about learning interopabilty between OS's than an actual "need" on my part02:34
leftyfbArchDave: maybe just stick with a server environment then. Learn linux and not how firefox looks and works exactly the same on a different looking desktop. I don't think you're going to learn much there02:35
ArchDaveI'm retired, need something to do to help keep the brain in shape02:35
Alpha[m]with x2go you can bring in individual apps from remote and it feels local. I do that with phpstorm and it works well02:36
Alpha[m]But I agree with leftyfb. You won't learn much that way. I have all of my personal machines running kubuntu now and I have access to windows machines when I need it. But my work machine is Windows02:37
ArchDaveI currently have a second machine with a virtualbox windows 10 host and a ubuntu 20.04 guest02:37
Alpha[m]Are you trying to make the switch to ubuntu and are just "toe dipping" right now?02:38
ArchDavebut will soon have a 3rd machine running as just a linux server02:39
ArchDaveI've been using windows since 3.0 and linux since slackware 2 I think it was02:39
Alpha[m]Are you Dave's Garage?02:40
ArchDaveretired, and considering doing some kind of work on the side for extra cash02:40
leftyfbArchDave: start playing with lxd containers on your server. Not only does it open up a whole world of virtual possibilities like scripts snapshots and copying containers between servers, but you are free to completely break a container server and spin up a new one within a couple minutes with 1 command02:40
ArchDaveI had a linode for a little over a year once02:41
ArchDavebeen watching NetworkChuck on youtube lately and getting "ideas"02:42
leftyfbArchDave: that's a good place to start02:42
leftyfbgood luck. Let us know if you run into any issues02:42
ArchDaveoh, I used to be in industrial control systems, there are always issues02:43
ArchDavethinking of trying out some machine learning stuff, but can't afford the major hardware for too much right now02:45
ArchDaveor the cash to do rented server time02:45
ArchDavehell, can't even get a decent better graphics card still02:45
ArchDaveanyway, thanks for mentioning X2Go, had not heard of that one before02:49
ArchDaveah, X2Go runs on a linux server and provides access to remote clients02:53
ArchDavehad been using Xrdp so far02:54
Alpha[m]I couldn't get that to work like I wanted from my ubuntu computer to my windows computer and then found x2go and it works for my needs02:55
ArchDaveI have had some issues using xrdp with Lubuntu 18.0402:58
ArchDaveit's a 32-bit pc and about to hit the dumpster02:59
ednashDoes XRDP use the RDP protocol? Can a Windows PC connect to it?03:15
ednashI've used VNC about 10 years ago, and found it less efficient wrt. bandwidth than RDP.03:16
Alpha[m]In my experience it doesn't work like going from windows to windows03:16
ArchDaveyes, run xrdp in the linux box and access from Remote Desktop on windows03:16
ednashI'm looking for an efficient solution for Linux to Linux remote desktop myself03:17
Alpha[m]I always suggest x2go for windows to linux03:17
Alpha[m]and linux to linux03:17
ArchDavehad not thought to even try linux to windows03:17
ednashThanks, I'll check that out!03:17
Alpha[m]linux to windows I use xfreerdp03:18
Alpha[m]remote desktop was my biggest hurdle in switching to running ubuntu as my daily driver03:20
ednashhttps://wiki.archlinux.org/title/X2Go03:21
ednashHmm this here says "X2Go does not support GLX 1.4 which is required for many graphical applications, including Firefox"03:21
Alpha[m]that may be for trying to remotely pipe and individual application03:22
Alpha[m]an*03:22
ednashI see03:22
Alpha[m]If you connect to a session everything should work just as if you were sitting in front of the machine03:23
ednashi'm switching over to linux since a month03:30
ednashevery day i learn something new, and it's been exhilirating03:30
Alpha[m]stick with it. work the problem :)03:30

ArchDaveend to end encryption probably just piques the powers that be interests03:31

semitonesYou'd probably want to encrypt the partition with your files, etc, which would not be the small boot partition. But it would be a good idea to verify what files are on which partition before you act15:33
semitonesUnless you want to encrypt the boot partition and let your personal files be not encrypted?15:34

oerheksGuest84, hi, sure, and there is also #xubuntu here on #libera15:45

oerheksMaximalist, veracrypt is fine, opensource, but i have no guide for full disk encryption15:46

Guest84got it thanks will try my luck here first lol. currently installing virtualbox from repository. running xubuntu 21.10 and windows 10 in dual boot config (separate drives). during install there's an untitled window asking for secure boot config. couldn't close it. should i proceed or disable secure boot first? thanks15:49
tomreynGuest84: up to you. on some computers, installations can fail if secureboot remains enabled. and some require drivers which are not secureboot signed by default, meaning you would need to manually sign them.15:52
tomreynGuest84: note also that if the other OS is expecting to boot in secureboot mode, disabling it now might cause it some issues - but that'd be more of a topic for a support channel for that OS.15:57

devilboyRegarding AutoStartup on ubuntu - I have set Skype as AutoStart but it won't show in Startup Applications18:44
devilboyis that normal ?18:44
enigma9o7[m]Different ways of starting it probably.18:46
enigma9o7[m]Startup applications are started by your desktop.18:46
enigma9o7[m]Skype may have its own method to autostart.18:46
oerheksdoes ~/.config/autostart/Skype.desktop  exist?18:47
devilboyhmm, yes. Is there a way to see all startup applications of ubuntu ? or list the ones not officially startup by ubuntu ?18:48
oerheksi see that the forums are under maintenance, "On Ubuntu 20.04 with Skype version 8.73, there is option in the settings to disable autostart."18:48
enigma9o7[m]systemd starts tons of stuff18:48
enigma9o7[m]and likely skype leverages that18:49
enigma9o7[m]or it installs its own service18:49

devilboyon it now19:24
devilboyresult: 7GiB (1GiB is missing somewhere in ubuntu)19:24
MattWThomasIt should be 7.5GiB19:25
cbreakdevilboy: did you run it as root?19:25
cbreakit should tell you the individual modules you have built in your system19:25
MattWThomas8GB is 7.5GiB19:25
devilboyas root, I will perform sudo lshw -C memory ?19:25
cbreakMattWThomas: RAM is sized in GiB, not like hard disks19:25
cbreakdevilboy: sure.19:26
devilboyok doing it now, let's see19:26
cbreakcopy the output to paste.ubuntu.com or so19:26
devilboycbreak, on it now thank you for the link.19:27
devilboyI need to create an account, pastebin is ok? as anonymous?19:28

devilboyok I will create an account :D19:29
cbreakI wouldn't expect having to create an account for this :/ ah well...19:31
devilboy!pastebinit19:32
ubottupastebinit is the command-line equivalent of !pastebin - Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output - To use pastebinit, install the « pastebinit » package from a package manager - Simple usage: command | pastebinit19:32
devilboyhmm I will see, all usernames I set are taken lol19:33
shadow255devilboy: sudo lshw -C memory | nc termbin.com 999919:33
shadow255no account needed19:33
randy__Anybody here on Bodhi Linux?19:36
erik_No but I heard good things about it.19:37
devilboyshadow255 cbreak - here is my pastebin https://is.gd/24mfGS19:37
devilboyby 0bin.net19:37
erik_Are you liking it?19:37
randy__6.0 is great I love it!  But 6.1 is in Beta -- 2 versions -- Moksha and old school Enlighten ment19:38
randy__Its great!19:39
randy__Linux Mint is my daily driver, but I'm running Bodh on a 15 year old laptop19:40
cbreakdevilboy: you have an 8 GB dimm19:41
randy__Try it, and give em some love19:41
cbreakand a free slot it seems19:41
devilboycbreak, bios detects 8GB, what do you mean by a free slot ?19:42
cbreaka place to put more memory module19:42
cbreakI suspect you have some device that reserves memory, or just memory used by the kernel19:42
cbreaklike an iGPU19:42
cbreaklshw -C display might give you a hint19:43
devilboyhmm ok, so my memory is 8GB but something is using 1,3GB in my ubuntu and in about system it shows only 6,7 as free ram available?19:43
randy__I have an HP 6910p laptop running 4gb DDR2 RAM, and a Sandisk X100 SSD19:44
randy__Bodhi keeps getting better wih each release - works well!19:45
cbreakdevilboy: that's my hypothesis19:46
devilboycbreak, https://is.gd/uKufJ419:46
cbreakI mean, 8 GB is a very small amount19:46
cbreakso it's probably a cheap / low end system19:46
cbreakthose are the ones where I'd suspect an iGPU to be used19:46
devilboyyes but even cheap or not ubuntu should detect full ram as 8GB instead of 6,7GB :P19:47
jhutchins8gb is plenty of RAM for a general purpose system.19:47
cbreakdevilboy: it does19:48
cbreakit shows you the ram in lshw, and probably also in dmidecode19:48
devilboyhmm, so usable is 6,7 from 8?19:48
cbreakbut some of the memory appears to be used19:48
cbreakI only have 62.7 GB available from 64 installed19:49
devilboyok :P  so it's showing me in GUI the available memory, that confused me before :P19:49
jhutchinsMost Linux distros will run just fine in 4G, it's a matter of how many simultaneous tasks you run, or if you're working with very large files.19:49
cbreakjhutchins: and whether you use a modern web browser...19:49
devilboyok now I have confirmed what I see :P19:49
devilboythank you all guys :P  cbreak you confirmed my q. :D19:50
jhutchinscbreak: Keep your tabs under control and 4G will be fine.19:51
cbreakI have less than 100 tabs, most of the time19:51
cbreak... well, less than 200 for sure19:51
cbreakmost windows barely have 10 tabs open19:51
devilboyhahahaha19:52
cbreakwell, not that I'd have to care, since I paid a fortune for a lot of ECC memory19:52
devilboynot switching back to any win things ;p19:52
cbreakdevilboy: if you don't like windows, maybe you want to try out a tiling window manager19:53
cbreakthose are also less memory intensive than kde plasma, which is what I use, or the gnome thing that comes with ubuntu default19:53
cbreakI've tried i3 for a bit. It's annoying to use. But some people like it.19:54
cbreakand there are many more19:54
devilboyI have ubuntu default, 20.04.4 to be honest 100% satisfied. Mr. Gates, tried to destroy my laptop with their recent update. Not anymore.19:54
cbreakmr. gates isn't working at ms anymore.19:54
cbreakbalmer's out as well19:55
devilboyhahaha ;p am not updated lol19:55
cbreakI think... satja nadella is the current CEO? not sure about the spelling of that name.19:55
devilboyCanonical & you guys - Ubuntu Family / Community - All the way!19:55

bleii'm getting E: Unable to locate package criu  on focal22:24
bleiobv, because its not there :)22:25
cbreakhttps://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=criu&searchon=names&suite=all&section=all22:26
bleilooks like it disappeared for a while22:26
tomreynthis can happen if a package is unmaintained upstream and/or has unresolvable dependencies in a given release22:30
bleicriu is pretty cool so a from-source build isn't a big deal22:31
tomreynmost packages in !universe are imported from debian, and the debian package tracker will tell you why it was removed from debian by the time an ubuntu release was forming.22:31
ph88i have one laptop was doing a release upgrade ... then it got to the point where it asked to remove old programs ... then it crashed. Then on restart i go to wallpaper background with mouse working but login box is not coming up, what to do ?22:38
tomreynwhat does "it crashed" mean?22:39
tomreyn!tty22:40
ubottuTo get to the TTY terminals 3-6, use the keystroke Ctrl + Alt + F3-F6 respectively. Ctrl-Alt-F2 or Ctrl-Alt-F1 will get you back to your graphical login (Ctrl-Alt-F7 on 16.04). To change TTY resolution, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ChangeTTYResolution22:40
tomreyn^ login there, install any pending updates, clean out packages no longer needed, make sure "sudo apt update" and "sudo apt full-upgrade" runs without errors or warnings22:41
tomreynand later, make sure this only returns packages you still need and are comfortable at maintaining manually (regularly looking for and installing upgrades manually): apt list --installed | grep ',local\]$' | nc termbin.com 999922:43

ph88tomreyn, it means the session stopped, i logged in again .. do-release-upgrade terminal window was gone. Then after restart, login box doesnt show again22:47
tomreynph88: i see. out of interest, which ubuntu release did you upgrade from and to? did you have 3rd party packages installed? which graphics card + driver?22:50
ph88when i install 22.04 daily build now .. will it become a normal LTS release after lts is released ?22:50
ph88tomreyn, ubuntu 18.04 to 20.04  yes 3rd party packages, but forgot which ones, graphics card and driver i dont know. maybe integrated in atom processort22:51
guivercph88, if you apply all upgrades yes22:51
tomreynyes, but what will be 22.04 is unsupported *here* for now, try #ubuntu-next22:51
tomreynph88: well, see if you can make progress from the tty22:52
ph88tomreyn, yes will do, right now i booted into windows, will try it asap22:52
tomreynit is generally good to have a system in a supported state when you start a release upgrade. that's no ppa packages / package versions installed (unless you're sure it will be fine), because otherwise you choose an untested migration path.22:54
ph88oki22:54
RavageThe GUI crashing on an upgrade to 22.04 happened to me too. I was smarter the second time and ran it from console23:32
guivercRavage, Ubuntu jammy (still in alpha; it's not 22.04 until it reaches RC) is off-topic here, you can use #ubuntu-next23:33
