slimjimflimhi, i just ran `sudo apt-get update` and `apt-get upgrade` with no errors, rebooted and now my usb logitech m525 mouse will point but not click. can anyone help?01:13
CanadianFoolslimjimflim, tried another mouse??01:14
slimjimflimCanadianFool: i don't have one handy01:14
slimjimflimi did replace the batteries01:14
slimjimflimit kinda sometimes works. yea it could be a hardware issue but it's weird that this just started happening after i ran the upgrade01:15
slimjimflimthe right click works better than the left01:16
slimjimflimalso i always run this one command to disable the touchpad when i start up...i'm on a laptop...01:16
Some_PersonIs there a supported way to upgrade from 20.04 to 22.04? Oddly, do-release-upgrade and the like is saying there's no newer LTS version01:18
sarnoldlts -> lts upgrades aren't enabled until the .1 release01:19
sarnoldif you want to jump now, you can run do-release-upgrade -d01:19
oerhekswith 22.04.1 it will be enabled01:19
oerheksas usual01:19

khushiramBefore,i was window user. when i switch to linux.than i face a problem01:35
khushirammy lapop speaker not working. what i do?01:35
sarnoldslimjimflim: it's probably searching through a few gigabytes of logs.. starting over with less might not go much faster01:36
sarnoldkhushiram: most problems like that can be solved by running pavucontrol and clicking around a bit01:36

slimjimflimmy mouse seems to be working now. i'm guessing it was some kind of hardware issue or if it was software it fixed itself...testing more things. brb01:38
sarnoldhttps://termbin.com/mqrao  .. it seems to connect *very* often.. unless all those are reboots or something? heh01:38
oerhekswe do have a nice wiki https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshootingProcedure01:38
slimjimflimyea. my mouse is working fine for now. thanks for your help guys. i'll come back if i have further issues with it. :D01:41
slimjimflim...even though the actual issue is unknown and none of us actually changed anything on my system lolol01:42
sarnoldgood luck, I hope it was just a temporary tantrum of some sort01:42
sarnoldI don't like not knowing what causes problems :(01:42
slimjimflimyea probably01:42
slimjimflimwell if it happens again i'll just light my mouse on fire with some gasoline01:42

kubuntuhi guys! i v install touch egg for my touchpad, and now i would like to configure it to move through virtual screens02:44
kubuntuI can do this by registering a shortcut for each touch movement, I am on kde question, how do I configure the shortcuts to move on the screens?02:45
kubuntuthanks to who will answer me02:45
sarnoldkubuntu: the #kubuntu channel may be better, there's probably more kde users in there02:48
kubuntuThanks for the reply. I also wrote about #kubuntu but unfortunately no one answers. I'll take some patience, I was hoping that the configuration of the shortcuts was similar on more or less all the distros based on ubuntu. As you will have understood, I am a noob...discovering the magnificent open source world02:52

Some_PersonI just upgraded to 22.04. I have nvidia graphics. Is it expected that I have no option to use Wayland on the login screen?02:56
kubuntui know and u'r right but you are awake like me sarnold :-P02:57

sarnoldkubuntu: sorry, I don't know anything about configuring gestures02:58
sarnoldkubuntu: I go the other direction, I use i3wm and the firefox 'tridactyl' plugin, so I can try to use the mouse less ;)02:58
Some_Personsarnold: Hmm... that bug's labeled "Fix Release"?02:58
kubuntuok thanks03:00
sarnoldSome_Person: maybe it's a phased update? try running sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade  from the command line. I hope that bypasses phasing.03:00
jhutchinsMight need full-upgrade03:01
Some_PersonAll packages are up to date.03:02
kubuntuSome_Person: the only thing that i know about nvidia driver is that i have an rtx 3080 and im using nouveau cause with nvidia after waking up from hibernation all my tre monitor they go to be freez I go the other direction, I use i3wm and the firefox 'tridactyl' plugin, so I can try to use the mouse less ;)e03:02
Some_Personnouveau in 20.04 didn't work with my monitor's full resolution, so I had to use nvidia03:02
Some_PersonIt works with that03:03
Some_PersonI've also just noticed... half of my screen doesn't look right in some cases. Like, the desktop background isn't right03:06
Some_Personhttps://i.imgur.com/sq6ql9g.jpg03:12
Some_PersonThis isn't right03:12
Some_Person(and it doesn't show up in screenshots)03:12
Some_PersonIt's like there's a seam down the middle of my screen, and it's not the screen because it's fine in Windows03:13
sarnoldoh weird03:14
sarnoldI've burned in similar stuff in my monitor, since I usually have firefox on the right side, irssi on the left side..03:15
Some_Personit wasn't like that in 20.0403:15
sarnoldwhat happens with a full screen application?03:15
Some_Personcan you give an example of what I should run?03:15
sarnoldfirefox or chrome03:16
sarnoldfull screen it, load something boring and plain like google.com or bing.com and see what happens there03:16
Some_Personsarnold: It still shows up in Chrome in full screen03:17
sarnoldcool03:17
sarnoldSome_Person: I think filing a bug report against gnome-shell would be a reasonable starting point; I don't actually have confidence that that's the right package, but the people who follow that package's bugs will have a good idea where it should go, and apport will collect some graphics-useful stuff03:18
=== DArqueBish0p is now known as DArqueBishop
Some_Personsarnold: I've done a bit of experimenting. If I set the resolution to 3840x2160 or lower, the problem goes away. I only have the problem at 5120x288003:27
sarnoldSome_Person: oh *interesting*. I wonder if that means it could be fixed with a more capable cable or monitor or video card..03:28
Some_Personsarnold: I didn't have this problem in 20.04, and still don't in Windows, so I don't think this is a hardware issue.03:29
sarnoldSome_Person: oh right!03:29
Some_PersonThe monitor is connected via Thunderbolt03:29
sarnoldman it's the most friday of fridays, hehe03:29
Some_Personsarnold: I managed to get it to go away. In Settings -> Color, I disabled the color profile from my monitor. Logged out and logged back in, and it looks normal now03:40
sarnoldSome_Person: oh sweet!03:47
sarnoldSome_Person: thanks for reporting back :D03:47
Some_Personsarnold: There's some other oddness too. If I enable Night Light, it only affects the right half of my screen03:47
sarnoldSome_Person: probably the same cause.. quite a lot of the very big monitors are done as two monitors side-by-side .. it might be that the applications think they're running on just one screen03:48
Some_Personsarnold: Thinking about it, that actually makes sense. My setup is a bit weird. I have a TB cable going from the monitor to a TB card, and then there are 2 DP connections between the TB card and the GPU03:50
sarnoldSome_Person: oooooooo03:50
sarnoldneat :)03:50
Some_PersonIf I disconnect one of the DP cables, it's limited to 3840x216003:51
sarnoldSome_Person: I'm afraid I haven't got a clue what to suggest to do about it03:51
Some_PersonUbuntu correctly recognizes it as one monitor, but I guess some bits don't?03:52
sarnoldyeah; I thikn it's still worth a bug report :) I don't know what would be done, but when it used to work before...03:53
sarnoldit's time for me to head out, have a good weekend Some_Person :)03:53

oerheksit is still available, just no longer standard.06:56
jyanXubuntu, Lubuntu, Kubuntu, etc.. those are the Ubuntu Flavours06:56
CanadianFoolI think that if you update your os, it will keep using the same desktop environment...06:56
CanadianFoolbut someone else might confirm...06:57
lotuspsychjeupgrade to 20.04 wont keep unity i think06:57
jyanOk then06:57
CanadianFoolhmmm. it's perhaps time to test the crap in virtualbox06:57
lotuspsychjeunless you were installing unity-desktop package yourself on 18.04?06:57
CanadianFooljyan, u know how to do that06:58
jyanYes06:58
jyanI ran 'sudo apt install ubuntu-unity-desktop'06:58

MinusSevenI can try08:10
ahcI accidently did apt-get upgrade, was 18.04 is now saying Welcome to 20.  Won't sign-on.08:11
ahcI can get to the Alt-F1 login and password, so I'm at a prompt now.08:12
ahcOops Alt-F2 gets me to a command-line. Alt-F1 is stalled ..08:12
MinusSevenI'm not 100% sure, but can you login as root?08:12
ahcMaybe not. I used sudo extensively. Not su ..  But I can try a sudo command08:13
ahcYes, sudo commands work08:14
madsquirrelSo what is the problem, you can't login to desktop environment?08:16
MinusSevenmaybe wait for someone else to help, but I'm thinking if you can set your password again, it might fix it08:16
ahcSo at power-up, the Ubuntu 20 signs on muchly, mostly. Last lines are  Started Session c1 of user gdm. Started User Manager for UID 121. Started Update UTMP about system runlevel Chenges .. pleted.. startup.ures ..08:16
ahcYes, freezes when trying to log in to desktop environment. Freezes at lines above.08:17
ahcI could try typing Gnome or something. Not really sure.08:18
ahcLast lines of the sign-on are sure weird.  ...pleted startup.ures.... and stops there08:20
MinusSevenI'm not sure how to help with that one, sorry08:21
ahcYes. I should have made a rescue USB. Maybe if I boot from a Ubuntu 20 USB, I can .. repair or something.08:21
MinusSevenisn't there control alt F4 ?08:21
ahcYes, asks for Login etc. I'll try that.08:22

jyanlol08:25
jyanAnd im gonna missn the old Unity Desktop08:25

jyanYea--08:26
jyanahc: BTW what Desktop Environment are you using?08:27
ahcWelcome to Ubuntu 22.04 LTS .. x86_64, is what its saying at the Alt-F4 login08:27

jyanSo your are using the April 2022 Version08:27
ahcNot KDE. So Gnome I guess.08:27
jyanNice but08:27
jyanI think I will upgrade mine to 22.04 later08:28
jyanlol I dont want to spend another hour updating08:28
MinusSeveni have 22.04, but that was a fresh install08:28
ahcSo, that's an option. sudo apt-get dist-upgrade08:29

ahcand hope for the best08:29
lotuspsychje#ubuntu-offtopic & #ubuntu-discuss for chitchat08:29

jyanNah08:30
jyanit should be fine08:30
jyansince its a Live USB08:30
jyanYou can use 18.04 if you boot into that USB08:31
jyanBTW Lets chat somewhere else08:31
ahcBut what then? A dist upgrade to 22.04 seems wrong. A 22.04 install seems wrong.08:31
ThinkT51018.04 will only be supported for another year08:32
lotuspsychjeor to be payed continued with !esm08:32
jyanThinkT510 Yea thats why I upgraded to 20.0408:32
jyanSince some apps are outdated08:32
ahcSo to sum up, I've "upgraded" to 22.04, but the desktop environment stalls doesn't come up.08:32
jyanwdym?08:33
jyanThe default Desktop Environment on 22.04 is GNOME 4208:33
ahcOK. Gnome 42 doesn't sign on for me.08:33
jyanDid you install another Desktop Environment?08:34
ahcNo.08:34
jyanSo you cant enter Gnome 42?08:35
jyanTry to enter TTY and reinstall it with 'sudo apt install ubuntu-desktop gnome-shell'08:35
ahcThat's an idea08:36
ahcDoesn't really explain why it freezes after booting, after all the sign-ons logs or whatever08:37
ahcWhat's the difference between Alt-F4 and Alt-F1 when logging in? I don't know.08:38
jyanAlt+F4 is for closing stuff08:39
madsquirreltty1 -tty6 reserverd for text, many years ago08:39
ahcExited out of Alt-F4, so am at a prompt at Alt-F2 now08:39
madsquirrelgraphical tty708:39
jyanTry Ctrl+Alt+F1 to enter TTY08:39
lotuspsychje!tty08:39
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/ChangeTTYResolution08:39
madsquirreltty 1 - tty6 differs nothing08:40
madsquirrelthe same08:40
madsquirrellightdm starts as I remember on tty108:40
madsquirrelbut in Ubuntu may be other08:40
ahcLooking at the Alt-F1 sign-on, it seems it was starting Gnome there just before it froze08:40
madsquirrelyou have GDM08:40
ahcyes GDM08:40
madsquirrelDo you have separate partition, mounted on /home08:41
madsquirrel?08:41
ahcI don't thinks so. few partitions. Only the one HDD08:41
jyanAre you dualbooting or is it just Ubuntu installed?08:42
ahcPerhaps I could try gdm at the alt-F4 prompt, although I doubt it'd pick up my user profile08:42
ahcJust ubuntu installed08:42
ahcOne option, might be to boot on a 20.04 USB, then, .. well I don't know what then.08:43
jyanTry booting into a Live 22.04 USB and Reinstall from there08:44
jyanalso you can back up your files by connecting another USB and using the Live Environment to copy them to that USB08:45
jyanSorry if I made it complicated08:45
ahcYes, that's all I can think of.08:45
jyanbut I hope you get my idea08:45
jyanWell then go ahead08:45
madsquirrelcopy all personal data, /home/USERNAME/08:45
madsquirrelThere are documents, images, etc08:45
madsquirrelfirefox profile, thunderbird, other08:46
madsquirreletc.08:46
ahcyeah, all those dot folders with the setups. Cripes.08:46
jyanYep08:46
madsquirrelcopy them to external drive, and just make fresh install08:46
madsquirrelFor future: use apt-get update; apt-get dist-upgrade08:46
madsquirrelapt-get upgrade may lead to held packages, etc.08:47
ahcWell, I do wonder if apt-get dist-upgrade might not be an option now.08:47
madsquirrelyes, it might be an option08:48
ahcAlt-F3 is tty3, Alt-F4 is tty4. I am at tty2 now I guess, login and password gets me to a prompt there.08:50
ahctty1 or Alt-F1 I can see is stalled, frozen, at the GDM setup08:51
ahcWell, I'll get a 20.04 on USB, will boot from there, and have a look around.08:54
ahcI saw somewhere Synaptic can export a list of all the installed packages.08:55
ahcBut really its the Firefox info and maybe the Evolution mails perhaps. I've got them exported and backed up, somewhat recently.08:56
ahcThanks folks. Tomorrow is another day. USB drive copying home directory in case all else fails. Boot from a USB 20.04 and have a look around.09:01
madsquirrelcopy all content of /home/USERNAME/09:02
ahcyep09:02
jyanWell then good luck reinstalling Ubuntu09:03
jyanYou have nothing else to lose (except your files) so go for it09:03
jyanOk then see ya guys later09:04
ahcGrr.  My mistake. I should have paused and chosen not to apt-get upgrade.09:04
ahcThanks folks.09:04
ahcThe apt-get upgrade clobbered my gdm and somehow did a dist-upgrade 18.04 to 20.04. Mind-boggling.09:08
ahcsudo apt install ubuntu-desktop gnome-shell    yes I do wonder if that might replace it. Mbe not available in 20.04 is a worry.09:10

bene:)12:26
rob0PowaBanga_: a MAC address identifies a specific hardware device on a network to which you have a physical network connection.  You cannot "see" MAC addresses outside your own physical network.12:30
rob0So "MAC address for a network" makes no sense.  This is an XY question.  What is the problem you are trying to solve by "finding the MAC address of a specific network"?12:31
rob0also, hmm, this is #ubuntu ... sounds like a question for #netfilter or #networking12:32
rob0I'm in #netfilter if you want to follow up there.12:33
ravageim not sure what else is to answer here12:33
ravageif he does not mean the mac of a specific interface the whole question makes no sense12:33

ravagelsd|2, i had the same issue. https://github.com/tomaspinho/rtl8821ce this helped12:47
rob0Why do you suspect the wireless adapter as the cause of this?  And what connections are dropped, under what kind of load?  You can't exceed the capacity of your wireless network.12:48
rob0is this a USB device?12:48

ravagemy new laptop has this device yes12:50

TheBigKI have the following problem: When my Optical Drive (sata) is not under use, it gets accessed frequently (are atleast it does access sounds) and in kernel there are messages like this: https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/w3sgVmcsZn/ <- it does not happen when i access the drive... and the drive is working perfectly fine. Does anyone have any idea what that could cause? The main problem is not the messages in the kernel. The Main Problem is the constant noise it15:21
TheBigKmakes when it this message gets printed. I rly googled a lot and i dont know what to look at exactly. It happens since around the upgrade to ubuntu 22.04 ... but it could also be happening before that. im not 100 % on that15:21

hans_anyway i just encountered a particularly annoying bug in Filezilla for 20.04 (filezilla 3.46.3) and i want a newer version of filezilla (for example ubuntu 22.04 use filezilla 3.58), any suggestions on how to get a more modern version of filezilla on 20.04 ?17:56
enigma9o7[m]numerous ways18:11
enigma9o7[m]The simplest is PPA.  https://launchpad.net/~xtradeb/+archive/ubuntu/apps18:13

enigma9o7[m]it only purges system wide stuff; so you'll need to delete user files yourself if you wanan reset it.  stuff in ~/.config and ~/.local/share18:16
hans_o i c, thanks18:16

MultbrelchHi all. I try to install Ubuntu 22.04 from a Live USB stick onto a HP Pavilion Aero (AMD Ryzen™ 7 5800U) without success. I could boot into Ubuntu from the USB only once in ‘save mode’! In most of the cases, I end up with a frozen Ubuntu loading page during the start of Ubuntu from the USB stick: https://ibb.co/HHhXDMy18:42
brkit says last modified 2022-05-22 20:5718:42
MultbrelchESC shows the following outputs: https://ibb.co/tYDVHgW and afterwards: https://ibb.co/512vhJc18:42
MultbrelchI tried ‘nomode’ option manually typed into the grub preferences without success. Interesting is that Ubuntu 21.10 and Linux Mint 20.3 work out of the box.18:43
Maikbrk: kernel.ubuntu;com doesn't show me anything but this https://kernel.ubuntu.com/18:43
Maikbut afaik 5.18 is not yet supported18:44
brkMaik https://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/?C=N;O=D18:44
oerheksoh mainline kernel, those are for testing only..18:44
brkMaik, perhaps, thats why doesn't load itself on startup.18:44
oerheks!mainline18:44
ubottuThe kernel team supply continuous mainline kernel builds which can be useful for tracking down issues or testing recent changes in the Linux kernel. More information is available at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds18:44
Maikbrk: a ppa.... which means you're at own risk18:44
brkoh ok I see18:45
i-garrisonbrk: your ALSA has only one card so if you previously had more than one in pavucontrol your kernel is missing some alsa drivers now18:45
oerheksbrk, boot back in 5.15, remove ~ /.config/pulse and restart;  systemctl --user restart pulseaudio18:46
brki-garrison, how do I find missing related drivers for the sound card?  ( by the way, currently on the audio sorce it shows that the sound comes from the HDMI port)18:46
brkoerheks, ok, I didn't try that one, but will do, thanks18:47
oerheksif not, try the wiki https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshootingProcedure18:48
i-garrisonbrk: if you will have it working with 5.15 you can find out the right module there18:48
i-garrison* module name there18:48
brki-garrison, I am with the 5.15 and not working18:49
brkI will try the recommendations and will be back after the restart18:49
i-garrisonbrk: did you changed any modprobe options for snd_* ? (there are lots in your latest paste, section Modprobe options (Sound related)) and do you have any /etc/asound.conf or user ~/.asoundrc ?18:51
brki-garrison, yes i did, following ideas from ask.ubuntu.com18:52
MultbrelchWhen starting from the Ubuntu USB starter stick, must one have specific parameters switched off/onfor the BIOS?18:52
oerheksMultbrelch, on an UEFI system, disable fast boot, secureboot is oke18:53
brki-garrison, I added options snd-hda-intel dmic_detect=0, and changed options snd-hda-intel model=generic (from auto to generetic)18:53
oerheks!uefi18:53
ubottuUEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI18:53
i-garrisonbrk: the dmic_detect=0 is a smoking gun actually so if you added that and it broke, revert it back and start again (with new pa-info)18:54
oehmansecureboot is a must whit spec settings like this18:54
oehmansudo mokutil --sb-state18:54
oehmansudo openssl req -new -x509 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout /var/tmp/MOK.priv -outform DER -out /var/tmp/MOK.der -days 36500 -subj "/CN=ubuntu/" -nodes18:54

enigma9o7[m]my bad19:09
brki-garrison, no asound.conf ... and I can't find .asoundrc either19:10

Multbrelchokay, oerheks, I still  have Linuxmint on the computer ... then I compare what HP says ...19:10
oerheks... meh mint19:10
Multbrelchoerheks, is it that probable that it is be the BIOS?19:11
oerheksgood luck. you should not have asked me.19:11
oerheks!mint19:11
ubottuThe Ubuntu channels can only provide support for Ubuntu and its official flavors, since other distributions and derivatives have repository and software changes. So please use their dedicated support venues, for example: Linux Mint (#linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org), Kali Linux (#kali-linux), and LXLE (#lxle)19:11
Multbrelchoerheks, I had no other choice, Mint works ...19:11
i-garrisonbrk: was this also present last time sound worked? snd_hda_intel: model=generic19:11
i-garrisonbrk: maybe share the ask.ubuntu link that you followed19:11
brki-garrison, I am not sure, but I remember snd_hda_intel ... I was just changing the model from generic to auto.19:13
Multbrelchoerheks, I use Mint to execute ' sudo dmidecode -s bios-version'19:13
brki-garrison, I followed more than 10 topics over there. I was hoping with preinstalling ubuntu will fix the problem, but it didn't19:13
brkmaybe if I installl windows, ot ubuntu 18 ... and then install again 22.04 ... could work?  as it was working after installing ubuntu 22.04 over windows 1119:14
i-garrisonbrk: no installing after windows won't help :) but maybe warm-booting after windows can affect this19:16
brkoerheks, I can't find .config/pulse to remove it19:16
brk"warm-booting after windows" ?19:16
oehmanconnectin to the server went down what did i miss19:17
brki-garrison, perhaps I have missing drivers, but don't know how to find which ones and where do install them from19:19
oehmannvidia or amd19:19
oehmanamd = mullins19:20
brkI will warm boot with coreboot, see if it helps19:21
brkI wont, seems something I have no clue about. :D19:24
i-garrisonbrk: ok at this point if 'options snd_intel_dspcfg dsp_driver=1' does not help you can try filing a bug as this is probably on huawei d15 and it has some driver issues atm https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems19:33
Multbrelchoerheks, I checked the BIOS, I already have the newest. The laptop was bought very recently ...19:35
MultbrelchSo, I compared the version on the HP site with the one from ''sudo dmidecode -s bios-version'19:38
brki-garrison, is 'options snd_intel_dspcfg dsp_driver=1" one line option or is it two options to add in the alsa-base.conf?  as if its two lines, then what to include for snd_intel_dspcfg?19:38
brkat the moment I have only these two lines:19:39
brkoptions snd-usb-audio index=-219:39
brkoptions snd-hda-intel model=generic19:39
i-garrisonbrk: yes append that line to be the third line19:41
brkand by the way I doubt its a driver issue, since I had sound on windows 11, then I installed ubuntu 22.04 and had sound too. Its just today I messed up something (oh yesterday I did VM with windows 10 LTSE, but still I think I had sound)19:41
i-garrisonbrk: wait, that should be 'options snd-intel-dspcfg dsp_driver=1'19:41
brkok19:42
brkdone, reboot? :_19:42
brk:)19:42
i-garrisonbrk: if sound worked until you did cold reboot (i.e. via powering off) then it is alsa driver issue which misses card initialization - in that case it was initialized by windows 11 and ubuntu just used that; was it the case?19:43
i-garrisonbrk: yes reboot it!19:44
brkI am not sure, I just installed ubuntu and it all worked. I did numerous power offs and once battery drained completely, but after each boot all sound worked19:44

Multbrelchoehman, ... well, it seems to be the same problem, even in safe graphics mode ...20:05
oehmanhow did you make the usb stick?20:06
MultbrelchI used balenaEtcher-1.7.9-x6420:06
oehmanusb 2 port and you should have no problem not blue ones20:06
oehmanmake the stick in ubuntu usb startup disk creator20:07
MultbrelchDuring the boot, it sometimes reads 'A start job is running for Network Name Resolution' or 'for Userspace Out-Of-Memory' ...20:07
Multbrelchoehman, okay I will even do this now ... during the match ;-) I will report later20:08

MultbrelchStick ready ... started and used 'Try and Install'. During boot, ESC to see boot info => many 'FAILED' msgs for 'Snap daemon', 'Snappy daemon', 'Thermal Daemon' etc.20:28
Multbrelchstrange all this ...20:28
MultbrelchNow he is hanging with '(2 of 8) A start job is running for Network Manager' and almost all possible managers20:29
MultbrelchDoes not look so good :-)20:29
oehmandasmn then i'm out of options20:30
oehmanuefi or efi boot20:30
MultbrelchThe more I try all this out the more I guess it is the new kernel ... uefi boot20:30
MultbrelchUbuntu 21.10 worked very well!20:30
oehmantry with brasero or someting use a disk20:31
MultbrelchI could go back to 21.10 and jump to 22.04 from there (I awlays wanted to avoid this) .... .20:31
Multbrelchoehman, you think it is the install on the USB stick?20:31
oehmanyes20:31
oehmandownload full iso and burn to a disk20:32
oehmanalways better20:32
Multbrelch... and then from CD20:32
oehmanyes20:32
Multbrelch:-) old times20:32
oehmaniknow but it solved my problems20:32
MultbrelchTomorrow I give it a try ...20:32
Multbrelchk20:32
MultbrelchIs the USB stick may be too old?20:33
oehmandont think so20:33
oehmanif its 1.1 or 2 i will work20:33
MultbrelchFunny to see, he is still trying, almost all fails, CUPS, Network, Thermal daemon, User, etc.20:34
oehmannow i must be going outside for a beer20:34
Multbrelchoehman, you know, may be u r right, I also have no the feeling that it is usb ... when I start again, I will have defenitly different outputs ...20:34
MultbrelchProst!20:35
Multbrelchthanks for all20:35
oehmanthx20:35
oehmannp20:35
oehmanbe back in a shot while20:35

oehmangive me the url to the iso you are trying to burn to that usb and then i will give it a try20:37
oehmanbrb20:38
oerhekswhy do yo hit escape, those are just warnings during boot live iso.20:38
oerhekswaste of time, just be patient20:38
Multbrelchoerheks, well, they tell u if something is not going well20:39
Multbrelchoehman, https://ubuntu.com/download/desktop/thank-you?version=22.04&architecture=amd6420:40
oehmanstrange that iso and strup disk creator should be no problem20:52
oehmani'll give it a try downloding now20:52
Multbrelchoehman, no beer?20:54
MultbrelchAnyway, it is still burning on DVD20:55
MultbrelchTakes a long time ...20:55
oehmanwell i bought a pack of 6 beer's on the supermarket20:57
Multbrelch:)20:57
MultbrelchProts20:57
MultbrelchProst20:57
MultbrelchCan't believe it: error during burning, almost close to the end ... :-)21:01
oehmanout of space? how any gb?21:01
Multbrelch3.4 GB is the image21:02
oehmanand the stick?21:02
oehmanhttps://blog.desdelinux.net/en/complete-and-detailed-guide-with-dd-examples/21:04
Multbrelchoehman, my mistake, there was no space left on / for the tmp file during burning. ;-) I have restarted ... may be, I continue tomorrow21:05

SherpaABHey have a question on snap packages. Installed mysql workbench and I want to use a custom xml config file. I of course can't edit or replace the default under /snap* as its a locked filesystem. I have the /home/user/snap/mysql-workbench-community folder but not sure if I can use that to load a custom xml config file?21:25
oerheksSherpaAB, yes, i think so, maybe this page is any help; https://ubunlog.com/en/mysql-workbench-instacion-paquete-snap/ > snap connect mysql-workbench-community:removable-media  > to open your config from anywhere?21:31
SherpaABooh yeah maybe. I'll check that out thx21:33
Multbrelchoehman, I'm booting now from DVD ...21:42
Multbrelch... let's see21:42
oehmanok good does it work21:45
oehmanhave been doing that dd thing on my usb21:46
MultbrelchNo, nothing, he freezes ..21:46
oehmanstrange... bios settings?21:46
MultbrelchThe Ubuntu wheel is turning and ... yes ... nothing :-)21:46
MultbrelchBIOS is not much what I can still change21:46
jhutchinsDo I remember that you can validate a dd "burn" with md5sum?21:46
cbreakDVD :O21:46
MultbrelchI will try now 'save graphics mode'21:47
cbreaksome USB stick doesn't work?21:47
oehmanhave been erasing just with urandom and doing a fat partition21:47
oehmanclean as hell21:47
bahamatIs there no usb installer image that I can just use dd without needing some third party software I've never heard of that will need root access to write to a raw device?21:49
* cbreak uses startup disk creator21:49
cbreakit's first party21:49
cbreak(part of ubuntu at least)21:49
Multbrelchcbreak, after many many tries I decided to burn 22.04 onto a DVD and to boot from there: nothing, I don't get into Ubuntu21:49
bahamatNot when all you have is a mac21:49
cbreakbahamat: then you can use balena etcher... dd might also work21:49
jhutchinsbahamat: Requiring root to write directly to the device is part of the whole concept of restricted privileges.21:50
cbreakMultbrelch: using the 22.04 ubuntu desktop image?21:50
bahamatYeah, I've never heard of etcher, and I'm not going to just start throwing around root access with software I've never heard of.21:50
cbreakhave you tried the server installer image? that's much smaller and requries fewer GPU capabilities21:50
jhutchinsbahamat: ... considering that you can destroy the system disk and user storage with that tool.21:50
MultbrelchOkay, to all of you: shall I report on some Ubuntu pages the problme with 22.04 and the HP Pavilion Aero (AMD Ryzen™ 7 5800U)?21:50
Multbrelchcbreak, yes the  ubuntu desktop image21:50
oehmanmust be bios setting try defaulting21:51
cbreakMacOS can't comprehend the result of dd-ing the ubuntu images onto an usb stick21:51
cbreakbut when you look at them from an other OS, they seem fine21:51
bahamatjhutchins: Exactly why I'm not going to give root access to something I've never heard of before. dd on the other hand, I've used literally thousands of times and am 100% comfortable with.21:51
cbreakI think it's some problem with the way ubuntu butchers in BIOS support / MBR / ... that confuses MacOS21:51
cbreakit should still end up bootable via dd... in theory21:52
bahamatcbreak: As in it can't mount it afterward? That's exactly what I would expect.21:52
cbreakbahamat: it can't even give you proper devices from the partition table21:52
cbreakif you look at it via diskutil, it will show nonsense21:52
cbreakat least when I did that with 20.04 / 21.04, that's what I got21:53
bahamatSo what? dd will do the right thing. Then mac says "this is uninitialized" and I click ignore, eject it and go about my business.21:53
cbreaknah, it'll just give you invalid partitions21:53
cbreakit shouldn't complain about uninitialized21:53
cbreak... maybe it does... anyway, it should be bootable.21:54
MultbrelchAnyway, thanks for the help, thanks to you oehman  ... I have to stick to Mint now, quite annoying this ... cheers21:54
bahamatSo...where's the usb image then?21:54
oehmanuse 20.0421:54
oehmanjust a hint21:54
Multbrelchyep but I wanted to have the newest21:55
cbreakbahamat: it's the normal .iso files21:55
oehmanme also but i'm sticking with 20.0421:55
cbreakMultbrelch: I'd try the server iso, just to see if it boots21:55
MultbrelchI will see tomorrow ... may be I'm passing by because of 20.04 issues ... ;-)21:55
bahamatSo I can dd the iso and it should work?21:55
cbreakif it does, you can install server ubuntu, and later `apt install kubuntu-desktop` to get a gui21:55
cbreakbahamat: indeed, yes21:55
Multbrelchcbreak, also an option yes ... tomorrow21:56
Multbrelchby bye folks21:56
oehmandont waste the disk21:56
bahamatAlright, I'll give it a shot. If it doesn't work, I guess it's netboot.xyz then.21:56
oehmanalways better21:56
jhutchinsJust a side note: I seem to remember that Ubuntu install discs were not bootable in native Mac systems.21:57
cbreakbahamat: yeah, booting via ipmi is often more convenient21:57
jhutchinsNever bothered to find out how you got around that, people obviously were able to install.21:58
cbreakjhutchins: I never tried to boot them in an actual mac21:58
bahamatcbreak: This one is a workstation.21:58
cbreakbut images written from MacOS can be booted from on regular x86_64 computers21:58
jhutchinsThe server and desktop OS are the same.21:58
cbreakjhutchins: yeah, but the installer is different, and I think the server image has fewer requirements... at least I had fewer problems booting it21:59
oehmanwell netinst and then build essential and start from there21:59
bahamatI'm not installing it *on* a mac. I'm writing the installer *with* a mac.21:59
gordonjcpis anyone else seeing weird behaviour in Firefox, with file dialogues not appearing?22:14
gordonjcpin particular, I can't save PDFs22:14
gordonjcpand I can't attach files in Facebook messenger22:14
gordonjcpI've a strong suspicion it's because Gnome's file picker in 22.04 is fundamentally broken22:14
cbreakgordonjcp: or because of snap?22:16
cbreakmaybe it isolates stuff too much22:16
cbreakhave you tried saving / loading from / to `~/Downloads`?22:16
oerheksgordonjcp, is the filedialog hiding under the browser?22:17
oerhekshere it moves auto to screen 2, annoying22:17
gordonjcpoerheks: no22:22
gordonjcpit doesn't work *at all*22:22
gordonjcpcbreak: why would snap affect it?22:22
gordonjcpcbreak: it *was* working, then after an update it wasn't22:22
cbreakthe whole snap system is isolating the program. It might not allow firefox to access the filesystem. I had similar problems with Slack some time ago.22:26
cbreakThere are permissions for snap applications in KDE's Discover, and probably other places too22:26
cbreak(like the snap store app)22:26
oerheksthere are snap settings in gnome-settings22:27
oerheksbut i did not need to touch it22:27
ensheya all i turned off bluetooth via the top right menu on gnome and it's not just disabled it... but it has vanished so i can't en-enable it22:47
ensi tried doing sudo service bluetooth restart but it still doesn't appear22:48
oerhekssudo rfkill list22:55
oerhekssudo rfkill unblock bluetooth22:55
oehmanhow do i get bluetooth audio in hi res using microphone?22:56
oehmanplaying cs and getting low quality sound when microphone is enabled22:58
oerheksfor mic i dont know, A2DP sink is auto selected when available22:58
oerheksmaybe they bite :-D22:59
oehmanworks with sound only but not when i try to use the microphone. headset i boose 70022:59
ensoerheks: that worked. thanks.23:06
