[00:41] Is snap going to eventually replace apt? If not, what would be the division of labor between them? [00:50] "problematic" [01:26] dunpeal: Probably not. Ubuntu actually has a pure-Snap variant called Ubuntu Core, but it's not even close to something you could use for desktop use. I think it's mainly designed for IOT stuff. [02:24] arraybolt3: I see, so how will the division of duties be between the two? Which packages will be managed by Snap, and which by Apt? [02:25] dunpeal: No clue. Might be interesting to debate about it in #ubuntu-discuss:libera.chat. [02:25] (Oh thanks Matrix. I meant #ubuntu-discuss.) [02:29] arraybolt3: I'm on Matrix too, and I think it worked. I pinged you in #ubuntu-discuss:libera.chat [02:30] dunpeal: Oh I forgot that LOL. It looked wrong in IRC, but in Matrix it worked right. So I guess 👍️ [06:24] Morning! How can I disable kernel updates? They're messing up my Oracle VM VirtualBox kinetic guest. [06:25] KBar: I think you can just uninstall the latest broken kernel with apt and it will automatically make the updates stop while also rolling back the bad update. [06:29] I tried uninstalling the new version a couple of days ago and the whole process broke the VM in the end. Perhaps I did it wrong. I had to chroot and update the initramfs. [06:30] I just don't want `apt upgrade` to ever upgrade them. I did `apt-mark hold ...` is it enough? [06:31] KBar: Dunno, it might be. [07:05] Hi all; what's the current kernel in 22.10 live cds? [07:06] !info linux-image-generic kinetic [07:06] (lets see if this does it) [07:06] linux-image-generic (5.19.0.15.15, kinetic): Generic Linux kernel image. In component main, is optional. Built by linux-meta. Size 3 kB / 20 kB. (Only available for amd64, armhf, arm64, powerpc, ppc64el, s390x.) [07:06] Newest ISOs were built today, so that's probably the kernel. === guiverc2 is now known as guiverc [07:59] Thank you arraybolt3 :) [07:59] (want to test a sound issue with a new laptop with amd 4800something; sound won't work in previous releases) [08:00] alkisg: No problem. I also happen to have a Kinetic ISO booted in a VM right now and can confirm the kernel version is in fact 5.19. [09:04] Hi all [09:05] I'm having problems with the vboxsf module in a virtualized instance of kinetic [09:05] Am I the only one? [09:08] Rastersoft: Not sure, I don't use VBox that often. It might take a while for someone who's here to notice and reply, so you may want to leave your IRC client open for a while (hours, possibly a few days) to get a response. [09:08] arraybolt3[m] I'll do it. [09:19] wooho new daily images for the first time in some days \o/ [09:25] :) [09:26] * luna__ downloads to test in my Virtualbox test VM [10:16] is there any report for the problems with the keyboard layout selector in g-i-s in 22.10? [11:14] Rastersoft: shared folders not working? (i.e. Permission denied) [11:16] also what OS is your host? [11:17] No, they just aren't mounted, and can't compile the module using the Guest aditions because can't find the configuration file (although it is there) and can't find some symbols. [11:17] My host OS is Ubuntu 22.04 [11:18] Rastersoft: `uname -r`? [11:18] from guest [11:19] 5.19.0-15-generic [11:19] Rastersoft: right. Boot into 5.15, purge the new version and do `apt-mark hold ...` [11:20] also, is it set up properly? [11:23] do you have one under "machine folders" in "shared folders" tab? also make sure your user is in the vboxsf group [11:24] but the problem is with the kernel 5.19, had the same exact issue until i reverted back to 5.15 [11:26] I'm going to try compile now the guest iso [11:30] Ok, now the mounting points do work [11:30] but now the dynamic resolution... [11:31] did you downgrade the kernel? [11:31] yes [11:31] the vboxvideo module is loaded [11:31] Rastersoft: check your /var/log/apt/history.log [11:32] and search for 'linux'. it should have upgraded/installed 5 or 6 packages [11:32] among them is `linux-libc-dev` [11:32] you need to downgrade it as well [11:32] I didn't use the virtualbox packages, I compiled the drivers from the guest aditions iso [11:33] what you're saying doesnt make sense. did you download guest additions ISO from Oracle's website or did you install it from the repositories? [11:34] I used the "Insert "guest aditions" iso" option from the menu [11:35] good. thats how you're supposed to do it. but the question is, where did you get this specific version of Oracle VM VirtualBox? `sudo apt install virtualbox virtualbox-guest-additions iso` or you downloaded both (and their dependencies) from Oracle's website? [11:41] Just did "sudo apt install virtualbox" Nothing else [11:42] So the guest-additions iso was downloaded automagically by virtualbox [11:46] anyway, I can set manually a bigger resolution, so I'll call it a day [11:46] (I hope that I used that expression right :-D ) [11:46] KBar Thanks for your help! [11:48] anyway, they should match each other. heres how i fixed it. 1) boot into old kernel 2) `apt purge linux-headers-5.19.0-15 linux-modules-extra-5.19.0-15-generic linux-image-5.19.0-15-generic linux-headers-5.19.0-15-generic linux-modules-5.19.0-15-generic` 3) download previous version of linux-hardware from lp and install via `sudo dpkg -i`: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-firmware/20220819.git8413c63c-0ubuntu2/+build/24299 [11:48] 318/+files/linux-firmware_20220819.git8413c63c-0ubuntu2_all.deb 4) download previous version of all linux-* packages that APT upgraded and run `sudo dpkg -i` on them as well, in my case there were 4 of them: linux-headers-generic, linux-generic, linux-image-generic, linux-libc-dev. they're available on lp: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu (i think they're meta packages so maybe this step is redundant but i did it anyway). dont forget to [11:48] update-initramfs if it didnt. [11:49] for some reason `sudo apt install package=version` didn't work so had to find and install these packages manually [13:09] got an answer from jbicha === schopin_ is now known as schopin [15:03] Hi again: [15:06] I'm installing Kinetic in VirtualBox, and if I check the "use privative drivers" part, it hangs when it boots for the first time. === arraybolt3_ is now known as arraybolt3 === arraybolt3_ is now known as arraybolt3
