| morganu | OK answering 1. I took card 1 out and put it in the slot of card 2 and put card 2 in the slot that card one was in. (I made this up to see if it made a difference.) | 00:20 |
|---|---|---|
| morganu | 3. OK I will run it with one SIMM and then the other and see what's up. | 00:22 |
| morganu | I dont know about other versions of memtest. or "the iso from memtest itself that is compatible) Memterst is program not an iso that makes a bootable disk to use to test the memory. afaik. | 00:23 |
| morganu | 4. I have no overclocking and the most fancy thing I have done are some ubuntu tweaks to the dic. | 00:24 |
| morganu | 5. When I say "locks up" I means slows down to unusable. Looks locked to me and mouse freezes but then releases, only to apparnetly freeze when I do anything but rebooting fixes it. Or quitting chrome if I catch it when it just startes to slow. (ditto with Firefox) | 00:25 |
| morganu | OK I have mentioned what I can tomreyn and oerheks . I dont know how uefi fits in. As you kow I have been mentioning this for 2 years. | 00:26 |
| morganu | It was tomreyn who helped me check the temps. | 00:27 |
| tomreyn | morganu: use the free version here https://www.memtest86.com/download.htm | 00:45 |
| greybored | Is there a way to install the "Ubuntu Server (minimized)" option via autoinstall? Using the yaml config generated with autoinstall installs a non-minimized setup. | 02:13 |
| ravage | greybored, https://ubuntu.com/server/docs/install/autoinstall also maybe ask in #ubuntu-server | 02:15 |
| greybored | ravage: thanks. I've looked over the doc but nothing is mentioned. I'll ping #ubuntu-server. | 02:18 |
| ravage | greybored, https://www.molnar-peter.hu/en/ubuntu-jammy-netinstall-pxe.html maybe the examples can be helpful | 02:22 |
| plugger | hi all-im having some drama with apt does anyone have any suggestions here is what ive done so far and what im getting back | 02:24 |
| plugger | https://pastebin.com/NcCLCEgF | 02:24 |
| plugger | in short i cant upgrade 3 packages, they are being held back and im not sure how to remedy the situation or if i even need to(perhaps i just need to edit my sources config) | 02:26 |
| oerheks | try apt dist-upgrade | 02:26 |
| ravage | plugger, what does "apt policy python3-distupgrade" say? | 02:26 |
| ravage | it is shown as a phased update here at 0% rollout | 02:27 |
| plugger | when run this still gets held back python3-distupgrade ubuntu-release-upgrader-core ubuntu-release-upgrader-gtk | 02:27 |
| ravage | in that case all you have to to is wait. you can also explicitly install the packages with "apt install python3-distupgrade ubuntu-release-upgrader-core ubuntu-release-upgrader-gtk" | 02:28 |
| oerheks | maybe you need a reboot, after that recent kernel update? check if the file /var/run/reboot-required exists | 02:28 |
| Bashing-om | !info python3-distupgrade jammy | 02:28 |

| plugger | this is the policy | 02:28 |
| plugger | thanks im a slow reader typer got the above | 02:29 |
| plugger | will reboot and report back how it went, thank you all very much | 02:29 |
| ravage | apt should really show a better message than just "held back" for phased updates | 02:31 |
| ravage | https://people.canonical.com/%7Eubuntu-archive/phased-updates.html has a list of those updates. | 02:37 |
| oerheks | ravage, solution already exists, but should be integrated in the messages, /var/run/reboot-required | 02:38 |
| plugger | hi all the same results after reboot but am reading this page re "phased updates"; which i only just became aware of cuz of y'all and bashingom | 02:49 |
| plugger | thanks so much this was very interesting to find out about/stumble onto thanks to your feedback | 02:50 |
| plugger | assuming this applies to my situation yeah? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PhasedUpdates | 02:50 |
| plugger | Bashing-om, does this invoke a bot that is present on the channel or on your system?" "!info python3-distupgrade jammy" is it possible to browse the bots information | 02:54 |
| plugger | found what i need never mind google is my friend now =) | 02:56 |

| plugger | thanks dude | 02:56 |

| ubottu | Please investigate me only with "/msg ubottu bot" or in #ubuntu-bots. Search for factoids with "/msg ubottu search <pattern>" | 02:58 |
| plugger | having trouble getting any factoids replied to in the #ubuntu-bots channel, here are my commands-what am i doing wrong | 03:27 |
| plugger | " !ubottu search repeat patience" or "/msg ubottu search repeat patience" | 03:28 |
| plugger | the bot channels open up but not found is always the reply and i have gotten repeat patience from the factoid page-what gives | 03:29 |
| Bashing-om | !patience | plugger | 03:32 |
| ubottu | plugger: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or https://ubuntuforums.org or https://askubuntu.com/ | 03:32 |
| arraybolt3[m] | plugger: Just in case it's not obvious, Bashing-om was showing you the syntax for calling bot commands, not telling you to be patient. Just !<command here> | <user to direct it to, optionally with any added info> | 03:41 |
| arraybolt3[m] | plugger: So if a user is misbehaving and I want to tell the operators exactly who is doing things that are harmful and what has gone wrong, I might use "!ops | user123 is disrupting the channel". (Don't actually call the !ops command here, it's the IRC equivalent of a fire alarm.) | 03:42 |
| arraybolt3[m] | (At least in this room.) | 03:42 |

| manwhowouldbekin | Greetings, all! Every now and then (several times a day), my USB keyboard stops responding on Ubuntu 22.04 (used to happen on Ubuntu 20.04 as well). To get it working again I have to unplug and plug the cable back in. I am inspecting the system logs to figure out what the issue is but am not sure how to distill it from the logs. Any suggestions are appreciated. https://pastebin.com/TSWhRPhV | 10:23 |
| manwhowouldbekin | P.S. There are also a lot of SSL handshake errors in that log. What are those about? | 10:24 |
| ravage | try another USB port and keyboard. im pretty sure this is a hardware problem | 10:25 |
| manwhowouldbekin | ravage, Tried a different port. Same issue. | 10:27 |
| ravage | then try another keyboard and try the current keyboard on another computer | 10:28 |
| ravage | your SSL errors may be related to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/1941891 | 10:28 |

| plugger | when sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade will apt look for any available cpu microcode updates? are there any caveats | 10:31 |
| plugger | like enabling additional drivers in the gui or editing the sources list | 10:32 |

| plugger | i get microcode update driver v2.2. when run dmesg | grep microcode | 10:33 |
| plugger | how..? | 10:34 |
| ravage | the driver is in the kernel i suppose? | 10:34 |
| ravage | is does not say anything about using any microcode update | 10:35 |

| vboxhelp | i can not find virtualbox installed using apt or dpkg, how can i listed installed application? | 11:49 |
| vboxhelp | i think i installed it with dpkg -i vbox.deb, why is it not listed in dpkg or apt? | 11:50 |
| lotuspsychje | vboxhelp: apt policy virtualbox | 11:50 |
| vboxhelp | lotuspsychje thanks, it shows as not installed. | 11:51 |
| lotuspsychje | vboxhelp: install the one from the ubuntu repos | 11:52 |

| vboxhelp | i am running it now, so I know it is installed, maybe I installed it with some .run script from there website. | 11:52 |
| vboxhelp | why goal here is to figure out what has been installed, delete everything and start from scratch. is there any other tools I can use to track down what and how it was installed? | 11:53 |
| lotuspsychje | vboxhelp: some external debs might drag in external ppa's too, wich this channel dont support | 11:53 |
| EriC^^ | vboxhelp: you'd have to see the .run file if it has any uninstall feature, also doing `which virtualbox` might give more info where it's installed | 11:53 |
| vboxhelp | is there some kind of log I can use to track down what I did, as i seem to have deleted whatever deb file i used to install it | 11:54 |
| vboxhelp | EriC^^ thanks | 11:54 |
| lotuspsychje | vboxhelp: /var/log/dpkg logs might also help | 11:55 |
| EriC^^ | vboxhelp: you could see your browser history/downloads and download it again or see the docs of the maintainer | 11:55 |
| EriC^^ | vboxhelp: your bash history or roots could show the commands you used to install also | 11:55 |
| vboxhelp | dpkg logs is a good idea, this will not be to large and maybe there something in there I can find. I could also grab the version number from the installed copy and look at their website for a matching deb or .run script | 11:56 |
| ikonia | dpkg logs won't show anything unless you installed package | 11:56 |
| vboxhelp | ikonia true, maybe it can help prove i didnt use a deb file to install it, then i can go on the theory it was a .run script | 11:57 |
| ikonia | you don't need to prove that | 11:57 |
| ikonia | you've already proven you didn't when you did a policy check | 11:57 |
| vboxhelp | ikonia i checked apt and dpkg I can not find a policy command, where can I find info on this command? | 12:00 |
| ikonia | vboxhelp: you did it earlier | 12:00 |
| ikonia | you've already checked | 12:00 |
| vboxhelp | i found it dpkg-cache | 12:00 |
| ikonia | you've already done it and proved you've not installed a package | 12:00 |
| vboxhelp | ikonia ok i read the help file for apt-cache policy, everything we have dont so far assumes the package is called virtualbox. What if the .deb file I installed was not called virtualbox, or was some alpha version i downloaded from the website. | 12:08 |
| vboxhelp | There are the ways I know how to search for installed packages, am i missing any other important commands? | 12:08 |
| vboxhelp | apt search | 12:08 |
| vboxhelp | apt show | 12:08 |
| vboxhelp | apt list | 12:08 |
| vboxhelp | apt-cache policy | 12:08 |
| ikonia | vboxhelp: we already know you've not installed it with a package | 12:09 |
| EriC^^ | vboxhelp: try "dpkg -S `which virtualbox`" | 12:09 |
| EriC^^ | if the file was part of dpkg it should give you the package | 12:09 |
| vboxhelp | I do not know that, can you tell me so I understand and learn from this. | 12:09 |
| vboxhelp | EriC^^ that is a good idea, i didnt know you could do that. | 12:09 |
| vboxhelp | EriC^^ ok this is great idea, i read the man page like 5x and was to stupid to figure this out. | 12:12 |
| vboxhelp | so there is no package that contains this path so it was installed some other way. | 12:13 |
| ikonia | yes, we know this | 12:13 |

| InPhase | Has anyone been tracking the progress on that constant snap update 13 day notification bug that has been plaguing 22.04? | 14:32 |
| InPhase | I figured that would be a quick fix since it's probably plaguing everyone, but it still seems to be around. | 14:33 |
| leftyfb | InPhase: did you file a bug? | 14:33 |
| InPhase | leftyfb: I try to avoid refiling known bugs. :) | 14:34 |
| leftyfb | InPhase: do you have a link to the existing bug? | 14:35 |
| InPhase | Well it's not googling well right now because the Internet is flooded by higher ranked links of people complaining about it. | 14:36 |
| leftyfb | InPhase: this channel is primarily volunteers who provide support. There is no expectation that Ubuntu/Canonical engineers are monitoring the chat and will respond with progress on bug reports. | 14:36 |
| leftyfb | InPhase: I would try to track down the bug and add yourself as a watcher. That is the best way to keep up to date on progress | 14:37 |
| InPhase | leftyfb: Hence why I am asking if other users who had been bothered by it had payed closer attention to it than I did. | 14:37 |
| InPhase | s/payed/paid/ | 14:37 |
| leftyfb | if you can't find the bug, there's a good chance once hasn't been files and nobody is working on fixing it. In which case, you should file a bug | 14:37 |

| leftyfb | ah | 14:38 |
| ioria | the fix might be sudo snap refresh | 14:38 |
| leftyfb | that is a bug with Firefox, not snap | 14:38 |
| ioria | big discussion here : https://www.reddit.com/r/Ubuntu/comments/v2j60h/pending_update_of_firefox_snap_close_the_app_to/ | 14:38 |
| leftyfb | InPhase: did you try the workaround in the bug report? | 14:39 |
| ravage | https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/wip-refresh-app-awareness/10736/90 firefox should not update while its running anymore with the current stable snapd version | 14:40 |
| leftyfb | actually, it looks like the behavior I get in Thunderbird seems to have been implemented in the Firefox snap as well. You should be getting a popup warning when FF needs to be restarted | 14:40 |
| ravage | it still shows that annoying update notification that basically does nothing. to be fixed | 14:40 |
| InPhase | leftyfb: Sure. And it just comes back. | 14:40 |
| leftyfb | InPhase: maybe chime in on the bug report then so they know | 14:40 |
| ravage | until then close firefox and manually update with "sudo snap refresh" | 14:41 |
| InPhase | leftyfb: I appreciate the general sentiment, but obviously this one is not suffering from a lack of developer awareness. :) | 14:41 |
| leftyfb | InPhase: ok, please add yourself as a watcher to the bug to get further updates on it | 14:42 |
| leftyfb | InPhase: I can guarantee you none of the Mozilla engineers are monitoring this chat | 14:42 |
| InPhase | leftyfb: Thanks, I don't need that energy. I was asking for info, and understand how open source development works, as I participate in it. Community discussion is a fair part of it too. | 14:43 |
| ogra | the notification feature lives in snapd ... updating any snaps while they are running is bad ... | 14:44 |

| ogra | nope, from impish you should be able to update right now with just calling do-release-update | 14:50 |

| ubottu | gordonjcp: End-Of-Life is when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop.

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 | 14:50 |
| gordonjcp | but yes, do-release-update not update-manager, that's what I was getting wrong | 14:51 |
| leftyfb | !eolupgrade | gordonjcp | 14:51 |
| gordonjcp | leftyfb: yes, I know it's EOL, that's why I'm upgrading | 14:51 |
| leftyfb | gordonjcp: I was trying to get you the link to the EOL upgrade instructions | 14:51 |
| gordonjcp | leftyfb: I haven't upgraded from one version to another before | 14:51 |
| gordonjcp | leftyfb: do-release-upgrade seems to be doing the job | 14:51 |
| gordonjcp | leftyfb: previously I've always just removed the disk, stuck a new one in, and done a clean install | 14:52 |
| gordonjcp | but the computer shop is shut for the local fair fortnight | 14:52 |
| leftyfb | gordonjcp: in my opinion, that is the best route | 14:52 |
| gordonjcp | leftyfb: I have disks going back something like 15 years | 14:52 |
| gordonjcp | leftyfb: some of them contain condensed copies of at least another ten year's worth | 14:52 |
| gordonjcp | I have one of those blue moving crates full of old hard disks, it weighs at least 80kg, and I have no idea how I'm going to get it out of my mate's workshop and into the car | 14:53 |
| gordonjcp | I can barely lift it | 14:54 |
| leftyfb | gordonjcp: take some drives out and put them into another container. But we're getting a bit offtopic here. | 14:55 |

| jelly | ioria, that seems to be good enough, thanks. I found some cruft from appmenu-qt5 (from 16.04?) that was in the way and cleaned it up. | 16:11 |
| ioria | ok | 16:11 |
| quantum_ | I am looking under setttings --> keyboard --> view and customize shortcuts --> Sounds and Media , and it has all the keyboard shortcuts marked as disabled. Is there a way to select a keyboard type or something that will assign all these keys to the proper values | 16:58 |
| === quantum_ is now known as loganrun | ||
| loganrun | is there some place to select the actual keyboard type or something like that | 16:59 |
| loganrun | ? | 17:01 |
| loganrun | anyone online? | 17:01 |
| realivanjx | what kind of keyboard type | 17:02 |
| loganrun | logitech | 17:02 |
| realivanjx | what r u trying to do | 17:02 |
| loganrun | get the standard keyboard defaults for the special keys set up like usual | 17:03 |
| loganrun | there must be some way to select keyboard type | 17:04 |
| realivanjx | you probably need custom software from your keyboard's vendor | 17:04 |
| KNERD | what do you mean "type"? The brand or language ? | 17:05 |
| loganrun | na, on other ubuntu setups it works fine | 17:05 |
| realivanjx | if you are talking about the fn keys then it should just work | 17:05 |
| loganrun | for example the speaker keys should increase and decrease the volume, but there is no mapping for any of that type of key | 17:06 |
| loganrun | then there is the pause/play key and skip forward and backwards, the mute key etc | 17:07 |
| loganrun | I am probably go through and define each one manually but there should be someone to get the typical default keyboard setup | 17:08 |
| realivanjx | i think they should just work because it uses standard keyboard mapping. on laptops you have similar feature with fn keys | 17:10 |
| loganrun | on a desktop,and it shows disabled for all the sound and media shortcuts for example, and it would accept the key if I press it | 17:10 |
| loganrun | guess something is wrong at the hardware level it seems like. | 17:11 |
| oerheks | normaly a multimedia keyboard , certainly logitech, is good detected. | 17:14 |

| Usuka | How to install Ubuntu on non-GPT disk? | 18:39 |
| ikonia | same as a gpt disk | 18:39 |
| ikonia | installer handles it for you | 18:39 |
| jhutchins | Usuka: What format specifically? | 18:49 |
| Usuka | In sense specifically? I may install Ubu 22.04 in dualboot with shindows7, but ubu wants to format my disk table into gpt, but shindows needs mbr. | 18:50 |
| ikonia | you mean 'windows' ? | 18:51 |
| Usuka | yeah | 18:51 |
| ikonia | so use the correct names please so people know what you're talking about | 18:51 |
| Usuka | Okay. | 18:51 |
| Usuka | Okay, I don't use windows. I'll erase it. | 18:55 |
| jhutchins | !repos | 18:55 |
| ubottu | The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories. | 18:55 |
| jhutchins | Really? 5 years out of date? | 18:55 |
| ikonia | which bit's 5 years | 18:56 |
| jhutchins | ikonia: Are you not seeing 7.10 there? | 19:01 |
| jhutchins | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources | 19:01 |
| jhutchins | Sorry, that one. | 19:01 |
| Usuka | And one more question. How to install non-snap Firefox? In a virtual machine snapped Firefox hangs so much | 19:02 |
| Usuka | *lags, etc. | 19:02 |
| jhutchins | Is http://us.archive.ubuntu.com actually the main archive for the current release/ | 19:03 |
| jhutchins | ? | 19:04 |
| ogra | jhutchins, for a small portion of users it is ... | 19:07 |
| ogra | (the istaller automaticlly picks the closest country mirror ) | 19:08 |
| ogra | *installer | 19:08 |
| jhutchins | ogra: So *.archive.ubuntu.com - why are current packages in "archive"? | 19:11 |
| jhutchins | archive != current | 19:11 |
| ogra | you mean it should be renamed to current.ubuntu.com ? | 19:12 |
| jhutchins | I guess if you only use the GUI it doesn't mattter. | 19:13 |
| jhutchins | ogra: There are several more logical options. | 19:13 |
| ogra | it is the archive of packages ... the naming is originating from debian ... i dont think renaming the archive servers has ever been discussed in debian (or ubuntu) ... | 19:14 |
| jhutchins | ogra: archives in debian are older releases. | 19:15 |
| jhutchins | I suppose we could call it obsolete.debian.com on the theory that anything pre-compiled is obsolete. | 19:15 |
| ogra | not sure what you mean ... we're not gentoo ... everything is pre-compiled | 19:17 |
| ogra | hmm, and you are correct, debian renamed them to archive.d.o ... it *used* to be the the debian name of the main package archive when we started though ... | 19:19 |

| five61 | BTRFS folk, is it possible to mount single disk from RAID1 as read-write so I can replace the failed disk? | 19:26 |
| five61 | only "mount -o degraded,ro" works, "rw" tells me "writable mount is not allowed due to too many missing devices" | 19:27 |
| five61 | and if not, how am I supposed to recover from this situation? | 19:27 |
| ogra | use your backup ? | 19:27 |
| sarnold | zfs has a dedicated zpool replace command | 19:27 |
| sarnold | does btrfs have a similar 'replace the drive' kind of command? | 19:28 |
| five61 | I am thankfully just experimenting with btrfs, no actual data is at risk | 19:28 |
| sarnold | \o/ | 19:28 |
| five61 | the "replace" command in btrfs apparently requires a RW mount of the data | 19:28 |
| five61 | but to RW mount the data you need both disks | 19:28 |
| five61 | which sounds ridiculous to me, as how would you possibly ever recover if one disk goes bad? | 19:28 |
| === Starmina8790 is now known as Starmina879 | ||
| five61 | I saw some mentions of "you have only once chance to mount RW" bug in 2017, I would have thought that is fixed now | 19:29 |
| jhutchins | ogra: So what's the name of the current repos if not archive? | 19:30 |
| ogra | "if not archive" ? | 19:30 |
| ogra | it is (and has always been) archive.ubuntu.com ... for mirrors you prefix it with the country code | 19:31 |
| ogra | (which the installer does by default on new installs, pointing to the closest mirror in your timezone) | 19:31 |
| ogra | EOL releases of ubuntu are moved to old-releases.ubuntu.com ... | 19:32 |
| five61 | nevermind on my issue, I had set up the raid mode incorrectly... | 19:44 |
| sarnold | ah that's a good thing to find out *before* you need it :D | 19:46 |
| carnophage2 | hi | 20:16 |
| carnophage2 | is it unadvisable to set an on startup cron job to update/upgrade? | 20:16 |
| carnophage2 | I don't see any reason not to do it, but I wanted to consult my ubuntu higher powers. | 20:17 |
| oerheks | no, it is an option in the update settings | 20:17 |
| oerheks | also unattended updates | 20:17 |
| carnophage2 | where is this available? | 20:17 |

| arraybolt3[m] | Hey Bash wizards. Does anyone know how to download three separate files, concatenating them together, and pass them down a pipeline properly in one command? I'm trying to download three files at once, concatenate them, decompress them, and flash the result with wget -O - url1 url2 url3 | zcat | dd of=/dev/sda bs=4M. It starts correctly but then gives a broken pipe error. | 23:12 |
| arraybolt3[m] | (Each file is a release binary from a GitHub repo.) | 23:13 |
| sarnold | arraybolt3[m]: this is the grossest thought I've had all week.. cat <(curl -s url1) <(curl -s url2) <(curl -s url3) | ... see if that does the trick | 23:16 |
| arraybolt3[m] | If only Curl could pull the urls at all 🤣 | 23:17 |
| arraybolt3[m] | For some reason Curl can't do it. Maybe wget could? | 23:17 |
| sarnold | hah | 23:18 |
| sarnold | I figured curl because its default of dumping to stdout really annoys me, but here it kinda fits.. | 23:18 |
| arraybolt3[m] | sarnold: I tried replacing your curl lines with wget -O - to see if it works, it looks hopeful. | 23:22 |
| sarnold | arraybolt3[m]: yay :) i wonder why wget works when curl doesn't; are they blocking by useragent string? | 23:25 |
| arraybolt3[m] | No, the GitHub URL redirects to a different URL which redirects to another different URL I think. | 23:26 |
| arraybolt3[m] | curl can't handle the redirects, but wget apparently can. | 23:26 |
| sarnold | oh weird | 23:27 |
| lhx | So... how do I upgrade from 21.10 to 22.04? It's saying the impish repos are all gone and I can't do a `do-release-upgrade` | 23:47 |
| lhx | can't install anything either | 23:47 |
| Bashing-om | !eol | lhx | 23:49 |
| ubottu | lhx: 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 | 23:49 |
| lhx | yeah, I just saw I need to manually edit sources.list | 23:51 |
| lhx | thanks | 23:51 |
| kronos003 | I'm thinking about making the jump to ubuntu from fedora on my personal worksation. I've been reading a lot on reddit about the ubuntu user experience. Is there anybody here who has made the jump from fedoraand would be willing to share their experience so far? | 23:54 |
