[03:40] no way to answer your question. i already said that any soundblaster is supported. [03:41] ok, thank you , i get it [03:41] and i do not support windows. [04:10] Greetings. I'm trying to install Kubuntu 22.04 from a Live USB in a PC without UEFI (only Legacy BIOS). But after preparing partitions I get the following message: [04:10] No EFI System Partition was found. This system will likely not be able to boot successfully, and the installation process may fail. [04:20] Drazur: "after preparing partitions" Please sjow the channel in a pastebin the out put of terminal command -from that live usb-: sudo fdisk -lu . [04:21] OK, Bashing-om. What does sjow mean?

Here's the result of sudo fdisk -lu: https://pastebin.com/P3DuR2re [04:25] Drazur: Looking :) [04:26] I ran this command inside the Live USB session.

[04:29] tells* Yored and not paying close enough attention :( [04:29] tired* [04:30] It is the partition where I want to install it. Currently, it has Kubuntu 20.04 installed. [04:41] Bashing-om, someone at #kubuntu told me that I can ignore this no EFI warning because my motherboard (from 2011, lol) does not support UEFI nor Secure Boot. [04:45] Drazur: Well one can reboot and see what results - I too do not have UEFI system, I have never seen this warning - booting up to 20.04 that is. [04:46] When I installed 20.04, I also didn't get that warning, Bashing-om. [04:47] I'll try to ignore the warning, and see what happens. [04:48] Drazur: Rebooting sounds like a plan - when in doubt one can look from journalctl at the boot log. [04:58] Install is about to finish, Bashing-om. I'll have to logout to restart my PC when finished. [05:04] Bashing-om, fyi: that 'someone' was me; I'd not noticed drazur was posting in multiple channels [05:06] guiverc: :D Hope to see all good in the end :D [05:09] :) [05:31] be cool to see as many file exploring options have, especially puttin the latest files on top [05:32] just installed the latest ubuntu [05:32] thought there would have been more progress [05:33] i dont see how those features would hard to implement [05:34] be cool to see as many file exploring options as windows 10 have, especially puttin the latest files on top [05:35] sorry had to rewrite that [05:54] Hi, I deleted linux-swap to merge an unallocated space with the linux partition and re-created the linux-swap, all done using gparted on a live iso. [05:54] I was told to update some UUID which I forgot and I dont know what it is or what not, can you help me with this matter please [06:01] anyone who could help? [06:02] rana_ans, you can use `blkid` usually to list UUIDs for drives to see what's there [06:03] what do you guys know about linux phones? [06:03] rana_ans: And then you probably want to adjust the value in /etc/fstab [06:03] guiverc: so if it shows everything, its all good, right? [06:03] I'm guessing play store apps and this that/ etc doesn't work there?> [06:04] a UUID is a unique identifier ID code that allows you to refer to drives in a manner that doesn't change... It'll show what's connected; you check yourself if it's correct in the file-system table (/etc/fstab) [06:04] Hash, this is Ubuntu Support; not a Linux Phone room [06:04] You do realize there's Ubuntu for phones? [06:04] rana_ans: You can "cat /proc/swaps" to see what's active for swap. If what you want active is active, all good.

[08:34] Does ubuntu/ufw keep a backup at all of any rules? [08:48] Hash: yes i think somewhere under /etc/ufw [08:49] I had to restore from a 6 mo old backup. [08:49] No backups ubuntu keeps if you edit ufw rules. [08:50] Hash: did you look into the directory i said? [08:50] Because ufw keeps backups there for all my installations [08:51] They are not backups. [08:52] What are they? [08:52] They are normal ufw configs where rules are saved. If you edit ufw rules using 'ufw allow something etc.' those /etc/ufw/user.rules etc files get edited immediately and ther is no backup. [08:52] They even have the date on them [08:52] If you accidentally delete some rules you didn't mean to, there is no way to get them back [08:53] You have to manually copy /etc/ufw/user.rules|user6.rules yourself to a backup location. [08:53] Only then will you have backups. I restored from an older server image. [08:53] ufw should keep some files with filenames dated, backups of previous configs, if you edit using 'ufw' commandline, mabye like 10 previous files or something. [08:54] That would be a useful feature. [09:19] hii [09:24] greetings, is there a way to send a popup message to another system in my network?

I think it's from gnome-keyring. How do I (re)set it? [12:56] ForeverNoob[m]: is it your login password? [12:56] possibly a previous login password [12:56] I tried my login / sudo password but that didn't work. [13:01] cbreak: This is also the only login password I had. On a side note: Is it actually safe to simply remove the gnome-keyring system or is it likely it will break some stuff? [13:02] it'd break stuff that relies on it [13:03] but if you mean just the keyring files for your user: you can remove them, if you're fine losing what's inside them [13:03] (I did remove the whole gnome-keyring thing when I switched to kde... was fine... kde has its own keyring thing :) [13:05] I'm using KeepassXC and I think it's clashing with gnome-keyring.

The preferred way to upgrade a system is through Software Updater (update-manager command). These 8 updates are safe. [15:09] gyxvbq: You can disable non-security updates via software-properties-gtk. [15:09] how this should solve the problem with defect kernel?? [15:09] I have no such thing software-properties-gtk. [15:10] Is the 5.4 kernel incompatible with any hardware you use? [15:11] gyxvbq: Ubuntu kernels almost always solve security issues (and therefore published as security updates), so this should not solve your kernel problem. [15:12] thats what I ask - how the hell the upgrade from 5.15.0-30.31 to 5.15.0-41.43 could possibly bork my video subsystem [15:12] gyxvbq: Is the 5.4 kernel incompatible with any hardware you use?

I had bad time trying to purge all the apport crap [15:19] That is another 41 kernel package. But this is not recommended. I suggest that you backup your data, downgrade to 20.04 with the 5.4 kernel (that can be done without experiencing your issue by install Ubuntu Server 20.04 and then sudo apt install ubuntu-desktop) and restore from the backup. [15:19] gyxvbq: Why is apport crap? apport is an utility to report crashes and bugs in Ubuntu systems. [15:19] gyxvbq: Please advance with that purge (that other package is another 5.15.0-41 kernel), but that is a short-term solution. [15:20] because it shouln't be ingegrated that deep into the system and purging it should not delete imprtant packages [15:20] gyxvbq: That kind of removals (those that remove the metapackage for your desktop) can put your system in an unrecoverable state. [15:21] *desktop environment [15:21] and no , I'm not goingn to reinstall nothing, I have a life to live [15:23] gyxvbq: If you do not report your issue and remain with the 5.15.0-30 kernel (with dozens of vulnerabilities), attackers will almost surely hack you in a few months.
