| josmala | I think when I upgraded my machine to 22.04 there was question which asked do I want VESAFB or (something I cannot remember). How can I reverse that choice to that other option? (I doubt that's easy, but it's easier than trying to fresh install and loose all the customizations I've done over the years. | 04:43 |

| Khepra | Hello. Which permission do I need to disable on the Firefox snap to disallow access to my real $HOME ? | 04:57 |
| Khepra | there are "access home" and "access personal files" and I don't understand the difference and if I enable any one of them, I have other problems like being unable to save downloads or install extensions. | 04:57 |

| blobberdene | Hello, my external keyboard and mouse are not working properly on ubuntu 22.04 lts. | 06:43 |
| blobberdene | Both have their lights on when plugged in but are not showing any input. | 06:43 |
| blobberdene | Keyboard works when on boot system asks to decrypt the hdd and stops afterwards. | 06:43 |
| blobberdene | Ports are fine because keyboard works at some point and both have their lights on. | 06:44 |
| blobberdene | Anything that can be done here ? | 06:45 |
| alkisg | blobberdene: what's the output of this command? du -sh /lib/modules/$(uname -r) | 06:50 |
| alkisg | (assuming you can access via vnc or ssh) | 06:50 |
| blobberdene | Its my local machine actually | 06:50 |
| alkisg | Does ctrl+alt+f2 work, does it give you a terminal? | 06:51 |
| blobberdene | Yes | 06:51 |
| blobberdene | That command gave me this | 06:51 |
| blobberdene | 759M /lib/modules/5.15.0-30-geberic | 06:51 |
| blobberdene | *generic | 06:51 |
| alkisg | How did you type that, using an internal keyboard (is it a laptop) or from vt2? | 06:52 |
| blobberdene | Its a laptop, inbuilt stuff is working, problem is only with external mouse and keyboard | 06:52 |
| alkisg | Remove the keyboard, run `dmesg -w`, insert the keyboard, then pastebin what you saw in dmesg | 06:53 |
| blobberdene | Ok | 06:54 |
| blobberdene | Dmesg showed "Device is not authorised for usage" | 06:55 |
| blobberdene | For both the usb devices | 06:55 |
| blobberdene | I had usbguard installing, think thats what was stopping both | 06:58 |
| blobberdene | alkisg: thanks it worked, just had to remove usbguard. | 06:59 |
| alkisg | 👍️ | 06:59 |

| Glitzer | @kazuha What is your system's GPU? NVidia or AMD? For NVidia try their proprietary drivers for AMD try installing the Oibaf repository and drivers, I found both more stable than the default drivers Ubuntu provides | 09:36 |
| Glitzer | of course if it's a hardware problem I'm clueless, but changing GPU drivers might be worth a shot | 09:37 |
| kazuha | its a lenovo thinkpad t460s @hepra | 09:39 |
| kazuha | it's nvidia | 09:39 |
| kazuha | I don't think it's a hardware problem | 09:39 |
| kazuha | yeah i could try changing GPU drivers, I don't know if it's running the dedicated GPU right now though | 09:40 |
| Glitzer | with a Thinkpad I think you're right, I wouldn't rule out a hardware problem nut I'd put it on the "less likely" list | 09:42 |
| kazuha | I mean it is a pretty old laptop, like 6-7 years old | 09:44 |
| kazuha | but I still don't think it's the hardware | 09:45 |
| Glitzer | ohhh you made me think... can it be your Thinkpad switches between dedicated GPU and power saving onboard one "on demand" could this cause the shifts? | 09:45 |
| kazuha | hmmmm | 09:45 |
| kazuha | it might be | 09:45 |
| kazuha | but im not sure | 09:45 |
| kazuha | it only happens intermittently | 09:45 |
| kazuha | which is weird | 09:45 |
| kazuha | and alt-tabbing almost always stops it | 09:45 |
| kazuha | maybe I just need the drivers | 09:46 |
| kazuha | the GPU driver for nvidia | 09:47 |
| Glitzer | would still drive me mad | 09:47 |
| kazuha | yea it really is weird | 09:47 |
| kazuha | I'll try the GPU driver for now and hope it doesn't break things | 09:47 |
| Glitzer | the official NVidia one is pretty save | 09:48 |
| kazuha | alright I'll give that a go then | 09:48 |
| Glitzer | the official AMD one broke my x.server (had much fun fixing my OS via ssh) | 09:48 |
| larkfisherman | SSH takes 30sec to login - journalctl -u ssh says pam_systemd(sshd:session): Failed to create session: Connection timed out - can anyone help me figure out the cause of this? | 10:11 |

| ravage | larkfisherman, try to comment the pamd_systemd line in /etc/pam.d/common-session | 10:16 |
| ravage | restart sshd and try again | 10:16 |
| larkfisherman | ravage: It worked, thanks! | 10:20 |
| ravage | great :) | 10:21 |
| larkfisherman | Would you please explain briefly what exactly did I do and why did it work? | 10:21 |
| larkfisherman | Just trying to understand the underlying cause... | 10:21 |
| ravage | i am not 100% sure whats failing here. i had the same problem after i installed 22.04 on some computers. i suspect systemd-logind and some dbus problem. i just know that i dont use PAM at all and most people dont | 10:23 |
| ravage | so disabling that was the solution i found after some google digging | 10:23 |
| ravage | pam is used to authenticate with plugins. most people only use the normal login via password or ssh key | 10:24 |
| larkfisherman | Ah, so PAM is not a critical component of a secure system. Good to know. Thanks a lot mae | 10:26 |
| hresco3 | I often lose control of my audio on my desktop. With many other systems I can examine the ps table or use pkill to terminate an errant process and restart it. With my audio system, too often the only way I know to recover functionality is to reboot the system itself. Can someone here please point me at some literature or otherwise share some guidance sufficient to helping me recover my audio services on my | 10:43 |
| hresco3 | desktop short of a system reboot? | 10:43 |
| ravage | "pulseaudio -k" ? | 10:44 |
| hresco3 | thank you so much ravage++ !!! I was unfamiliar with that. My last deep dive into linux audio was learning how to configure alsa to work with an audio chip, and I never did much understand that. | 10:50 |
| hresco3 | `man pulseaudio` looks quite informative. | 10:51 |

| ravage | raxor2k, should DO not provide that information? | 10:58 |
| ravage | ignorand, that article already know why it happend, offers a workaround and the comments a possible fix. so did you try all that? | 11:02 |
| l0k1 | Hey together, only FYI (suspension problem 22.04). My solution was: https://askubuntu.com/questions/598236/ubuntu-wakes-up-after-few-seconds-of-sleep | 11:02 |

| ravage | vnStat comes to mind | 11:16 |
| ravage | but i havent used that in years | 11:16 |
| hresco3 | ogra: I have not had to configure alsa in perhaps a dozen years. But when I first started building linux desktops twenty years ago, I lived without audio. When I first started building linux desktops for others on a commercial basis 17 years ago, I spend far mposre time making audio work than I did on the entire rest of the system combined. I appreciate the work which has been done to hide that process | 11:29 |

| summonner | kinda need some help... my logitech 604 stopped working today. the dmesg log is full of "logitech-djreceiver 0003:046D:C537.000C: Unexpected input report number 128" | 20:06 |
| summonner | I've had to plug in an old USB mouse to get desktop working | 20:07 |
| summonner | From searching, it seems that only the left-mouse button is affected (right and middle still work), blacklisting the hid_logitech_dj driver hasn't worked (no change). Other comments online say it's stopped working in newer kernels as well as old. | 20:08 |
| jhutchins | summonner: What is a logitech 604? Some kind of input device? | 20:23 |
| summonner | jhutchins, yeah G604 is a mouse, using the unifying receiver which logitech uses for multiple devices. from reading, some one has been maintaining the driver library, but it gets murky from there... he left? he's not maintaining it anymore? | 20:28 |
| adriana | hi i need your help | 20:34 |
| adriana | i need to transfer files from a windows 7 pc to an ubuntu pc | 20:34 |
| adriana | do you know the easiest way? | 20:35 |
| neverblue | depends on a few things. How are they connected ? | 20:35 |
| adriana | they are all connected to my home wifi | 20:35 |
| neverblue | but they are separate hardware ? | 20:35 |
| neverblue | not a VM | 20:35 |
| adriana | yes they are separated hardware. two notebook | 20:36 |
| biapy | adriana: i'm trolling, but the easiest way is a usb key or external hdd | 20:36 |
| summonner | win7 shared folder, ubuntu can see it | 20:37 |
| adriana | now i am writing from the ubuntu one | 20:37 |
| adriana | i have to transfer a lot of files. whith a usb key it takes a long long time | 20:37 |
| biapy | adriana: otherwise, i heard good things about https://syncthing.net/ but never tested myself | 20:37 |
| neverblue | adriana: if you knew the different speeds over USB/network, that might be a more accurate statement. the USB transfer is likely your fastest | 20:38 |
| adriana | so is difficult to see the w7 folders from the ubuntu pc? | 20:38 |
| biapy | adriana: or like summonner said, a windows shared folder is the most straigthforward :) | 20:38 |
| adriana | so the first thing is to set the c: folder in w7 as a shared folder? | 20:39 |
| summonner | noooooo | 20:39 |
| summonner | don't share the root, share a sub-folder | 20:39 |
| sophie | ssh server on the ubuntu machine | 20:39 |
| sophie | filezilla on windows | 20:39 |
| neverblue | go to the Window machine, right click on the folder with the files, then set it to Share. Open File Explorer, browse to your \\<IP of the windows machine> and confirm you see the Share name. Then, on the Ubuntu box, do the same: \\<IP of the windows machine> | 20:39 |
| sophie | transfer via ssh | 20:40 |
| biapy | nice one sophie :) | 20:40 |
| adriana | ok i try | 20:40 |
| neverblue | to get your Windows IP, use Start -> cmd -> ipconfig (look for ipv4 Address) | 20:41 |
| adriana | i already have the windows ip. now i try to set a folder as shared | 20:41 |
| neverblue | to generate the share, right click the folder, Properties -> Sharing -> Advanced Sharing (share this folder, give it a name) | 20:42 |
| summonner | Well... after sharing the folder on the windows machine, you go to the Ubuntu machine and in the file manager (if it's PCManFM) Go->Network and see if the windows machine is in the list | 20:42 |
| neverblue | do you want to only read from the Windows Share? if not, you may need to provide write permissions (so you can write from your Linux to Windows) | 20:43 |
| summonner | neverblue, readonly is a default of filesharing | 20:43 |
| adriana | i need to transfer files (lot of files, in different folders) from w7 to ubuntu | 20:43 |
| neverblue | then the proposed plan should do that | 20:44 |
| SudoBash | sudo apt-get install samba | 20:45 |
| summonner | adriana, see if you can get the initial folder working. if it does, you can then copy or move the files into that shared folder on windows. an F5/refresh on Ubuntu should show the new files to you | 20:45 |
| adriana | i have samba in ubuntu | 20:46 |
| adriana | ok please listen | 20:46 |
| SudoBash | Run a samba share on Ubuntu, push the files | 20:46 |
| SudoBash | edit /etc/samba/smb.conf | 20:46 |
| summonner | mmmm SudoBash that would require ensuring the path tree has correct perms into the shared folder and write = ok is set properly | 20:46 |
| SudoBash | at the bottom there are some examples, build your share manually | 20:46 |
| adriana | in the w7 pc i have a folder called C:\2011 | 20:46 |
| adriana | i have set 2011 folder as a shared folder | 20:47 |
| SudoBash | better than relying on Ubuntu File Sharing that's built into some file managers like caja / nautilus | 20:47 |
| summonner | adriana, if all the files you want are below that, it should be fine | 20:47 |
| SudoBash | I think that even uses some built in smb stuff, but never works | 20:47 |
| adriana | the w7 ip is 192.168.0.9 | 20:47 |
| adriana | now? | 20:47 |
| SudoBash | from ubuntu: \\192.168.0.9 | 20:48 |
| SudoBash | err | 20:48 |
| SudoBash | smb://192.168.0.9 | 20:48 |
| SudoBash | smb://192.168.0.9/ | 20:48 |
| SudoBash | from your file manager, whatever you're using | 20:49 |
| SudoBash | if it doesn't give you a place to paste the location try ctrl + L | 20:50 |
| adriana | he ask me username dominio and password | 20:50 |
| SudoBash | try your windows credentials | 20:50 |
| SudoBash | you have to have a windows password for this to work btw | 20:51 |
| summonner | put in COMPUTERNAME\username and password (where COMPUTERNAME is the name of windows PC,etc) | 20:51 |
| adriana | i didn't know i have wimdows credential | 20:51 |
| SudoBash | haha, what if they have an online microsoft login? | 20:51 |
| SudoBash | assign password to the local 'Administrator' ? | 20:52 |
| summonner | on the windows pc, run cmd and type whoami to see your username and echo %COMPUTERNAME% to see the computername | 20:52 |
| SudoBash | also set COMPUTERNAME works too for that | 20:52 |
| summonner | cmd -> Command Prompt (if you use the windows menu) | 20:52 |
| SudoBash | will just echo if you're not setting a var | 20:53 |
| adriana | whoami tells computer-hp\paola | 20:53 |
| leftyfb | adriana: https://data-flair.training/blogs/transfer-data-from-windows-to-ubuntu/ | 20:53 |
| summonner | that's your username on Ubuntu->connecting to Windows credentials | 20:53 |
| SudoBash | use that for username: computer-hp\paola | 20:54 |
| leftyfb | adriana: just install ssh on ubuntu and use winscp on windows to transfer the files | 20:54 |
| SudoBash | yea that would be way faster than SMB too | 20:54 |
| leftyfb | adriana: I just posted step by step instructions | 20:54 |
| adriana | echo %computer-hp\paola% doesn't work | 20:55 |
| leftyfb | adriana: https://data-flair.training/blogs/transfer-data-from-windows-to-ubuntu/ | 20:55 |
| SudoBash | you already have everything you need | 20:56 |
| adriana | ubuntu ask me also dominio and password | 20:56 |
| leftyfb | adriana: hello? | 20:56 |
| SudoBash | domain is computer-hp | 20:56 |
| SudoBash | dominio: computer-hp | 20:57 |
| SudoBash | user: paola | 20:57 |
| SudoBash | I think winscp might be a stretch for this one | 20:58 |
| leftyfb | I don't think so | 20:58 |
| leftyfb | just install to install ssh on ubuntu | 20:58 |
| leftyfb | then download and run winscp on windows | 20:58 |
| leftyfb | nothing to configure | 20:58 |
| SudoBash | sudo apt-get install openssh-server | 20:58 |
| adriana | but i don't know which password he need | 20:58 |
| leftyfb | adriana: do you know the password for you ubuntu machine? | 20:58 |
| matsaman | whatever the user's pass is | 20:58 |
| adriana | yes the ubuntu password yes | 20:59 |
| leftyfb | adriana: ok, please follow this: https://data-flair.training/blogs/transfer-data-from-windows-to-ubuntu/ | 20:59 |
| adriana | but i tought he needs a w7 password | 20:59 |
| leftyfb | adriana: forget about samba | 20:59 |
| SudoBash | do you actually have permissions to the Windows PC? | 20:59 |
| adriana | yes, without password | 20:59 |
| leftyfb | adriana: you do not need the windows password | 20:59 |
| SudoBash | go set a password on the windows machine for that password! | 20:59 |
| SudoBash | for that user I mean | 20:59 |
| * leftyfb sigh | 21:00 | |
| summonner | okay it's a bust. make sure openssh-server is installed on ubuntu and use filezilla as sophie suggested | 21:00 |
| adriana | ok, in the shared folder? | 21:00 |
| SudoBash | it's a single click sign on | 21:00 |
| matsaman | filezilla, winscp, any sftp client should suffice | 21:00 |
| SudoBash | he's almost there, he's at password prompt to access files.... | 21:00 |
| SudoBash | would just have to sit at that prompt, go set / change password for paola user, enter password and see files | 21:01 |
| adriana | the correct syntax is set/change password ? | 21:02 |
| SudoBash | @adriana, set a password for paola on the windows pc for that user and then go back and use it at that prompt | 21:03 |
| SudoBash | you gotta be trolling | 21:03 |
| leftyfb | adriana: do you want to get this done? | 21:04 |
| adriana | ok the w administrator is Franca, and he ave a password | 21:04 |
| SudoBash | they' | 21:05 |
| SudoBash | they're already almost done and you want to confuse them more | 21:05 |
| adriana | yeaah | 21:05 |
| adriana | it works | 21:05 |
| SudoBash | dominio: computer-hp | 21:06 |
| neverblue | nice, glad it works adriana | 21:06 |
| SudoBash | user: franca | 21:06 |
| adriana | user paola dominio computer-hp and password | 21:06 |
| adriana | no | 21:06 |
| adriana | but it works now | 21:06 |
| SudoBash | whatever the user is you're about to use their password | 21:06 |
| oerheks | !yay | 21:06 |
| ubottu | Glad you made it! :-) | 21:06 |
| adriana | i am seeing the 2011 folder | 21:07 |
| SudoBash | see if you can transfer tho | 21:07 |
| adriana | thank you very much!!! | 21:07 |
| SudoBash | next time learn ssh and winscp | 21:08 |
| neverblue | don't listen to the haters, you did great | 21:08 |
| SudoBash | it's faster to deploy and you can push files to ubuntu, transfers are quicker too | 21:08 |
| SudoBash | Also, I don't think samba will connect to XP shares anymore | 21:09 |
| adriana | i already use smb to transfer files from ubuntu pc to a hard disk connected to a nvidia shield, but to nvida is a little bit easier | 21:09 |
| adriana | now i need to transfer photo from w7 to ubuntu, and then from ubuntu to nvidia hard disk | 21:10 |
| SudoBash | one thing about cifs / smb shares, filenames must be under a certain length and not contain certain characters I believe... | 21:11 |
| SudoBash | so make sure you have ALL files after transfers, because it may not accept some filenames and need a different method and obviously can't transfer files that are in use | 21:11 |
| SudoBash | one way around the filename thing is to zip or otherwise archive a collection of files that are giving you issue | 21:12 |
| arraybolt3 | SudoBash: Yeah, but isn't filename problems going to be a problem with Windows and Linux interactions in general? Windows is very picky about what filenames it will and won't accept, whereas Linux is fine with anything but a "/". | 21:13 |
| arraybolt3 | But still, yes, good idea to make sure all the files you transferred actually made it. | 21:13 |
| SudoBash | either way, I've seen some issues like this similar from Linux to Linux samba fileserver hosted on on ESXi to 10Gbit TrueNAS array, so who knows where the issue was there? Samba I suspect? Old outdated netbios rules? IDK... | 21:14 |
| SudoBash | TrueNAS is ZFS too, so... | 21:14 |
| SudoBash | But mainly copying files that were probably generated on Windows, living on EXT4 drives for old archival, transferring to EXT4 under ZFS | 21:15 |
| SudoBash | But also VMFS because of ESXi... haha | 21:16 |
| SudoBash | lots of abstraction? Maybe I should do something else... | 21:16 |
| SudoBash | Old drives are showing signs of dying, so transferring and I can transfer elsewhere if needed | 21:17 |
| SudoBash | ahhh it'll probably be fine.. it survived a power outage today | 21:18 |
| adriana | thank you SudoBash, i have a loong night transferring old photos... | 21:23 |
| SudoBash | summonner helped you moatly | 21:23 |
| SudoBash | mostly | 21:23 |
| matsaman | wine would help the most | 21:24 |
| adriana | tommy's margarita also | 21:25 |
| SudoBash | BTW adriana, I'm doing the same thing and using cifs / samba to backup just because it's easy and you can do it in your normal file browser :-D | 21:26 |
| SudoBash | #lazy | 21:27 |
| jhutchins | summonner: It sounds like the mouse and the receiver might not be properly paired. This usually "just happens", although I remember that erarly versions came with a Windows utility to set up the mouse. | 21:35 |
| jhutchins | I think I'd try swapping physical things - changing the USB port, swapping batteries, maybe test the mouse/receiver pair on another PC if available. | 21:36 |
| jhutchins | Theoretically there's nothing to go wrong, but what that really means is nothing to fix. | 21:37 |

| MinusSeven | Hi all | 23:34 |
| MinusSeven | Is there a visual crontab manager for Ubuntu, or is it best to use the command line? | 23:34 |
| pedahzur | Did someone hack an Ubuntu blog account or two? What's with all the articles about how to buy essays? | 23:48 |
| sarnold | pedahzur: yeah, that site's been hacked again | 23:48 |
| pedahzur | "Ubuntu LoCo Council" isn't a corporate (or community) site? If so, I would think they would keep better tabs on it. | 23:51 |
| pedahzur | Hmm... https://lococouncil.ubuntu.com/ Not a good look for a sub-domain of ubuntu.com to get hacked. | 23:52 |
