[00:52] Hello bax :) [00:53] is there any way to torify terminal ? === paul_ is now known as sixpiece_ubuntu [01:11] is this group active?! [01:12] afshin777: Yeah, we're here, we just don't know what torify means. [01:12] Or at least I'm not sure what you're trying to do. [01:13] i.e. passing the terminal traffic through the tor [01:13] the terminal itself does not handle networking [01:13] Terminal traffic... are you connecting to a remote computer via SSH? Or using the lynx web browser? [01:14] The terminal only works locally on your own system unless you use a remote shell of some sort (like SSH). [01:14] What you'd want to do is torify the software you are running from the terminal. [01:15] Or, you could implement your tor at the system level, such that all traffic from any app uses tor. [01:15] I just want commands like "apt-get" use tor service [01:16] so now you have a more useful search term [01:16] "apt-get tor" [01:16] afshin777: I'd try to route your whole system through Tor to do what you're going for. [01:17] There might be a way to route just an individual app (like apt) through Tor, but I don't know enough about Tor to know how to do that. [01:19] Thank you guys, really in Iran we have heavy internet restrictions and i can not use some services like docker and so on [01:19] afshin777: Just be careful, I don't know if Iran is going to be OK with you using Tor either. You'll know the situatiohn better than I will here in the US, but just be cautious. [01:20] And we have to use a proxy when installing some software through the terminal [01:23] Thanks you my friend , yeah that's ok :) and they know people do that, and the blocking system is very smart and fast! But we always find a way to overcome it :)) === paul_ is now known as sixpiece === Phr33d0m_ is now known as Phr33d0m [02:16] I have a ubuntu machine that needs forensic investigation,i am not Unix/Linux Savvy. the machine is not plugged into the network. when i turn on the machine it logs in without asking for a password, but when doing sudo I am asked for password and i have no password available as the machine is now confiscated from the original user [02:18] aussietouch: Recovering the existing password may be very difficult or impossible, however, changing the password should be trivial. Is that acceptable? [02:20] arraybolt3 yes thats acceptable [02:20] aussietouch: Fantastic. Do you have a live USB handy, or do you need to do this procedure entirely from the existing operating system? [02:20] I guess I can get a live usb [02:21] aussietouch: Nah, not necessary. [02:21] You are connected to IRC using a different computer than the one you're about to investigate, right? [02:21] Yes :-) [02:21] Part of the password reset process involves a couple of reboots. [02:21] Alright. To begin with, shut the computer down. [02:21] Roger that [02:21] Next, power the computer on, let the firmware screen appear, then the moment it goes solid black, hit Esc once. [02:22] This should pop up a screen that says "GNU GRUB" at the top. [02:22] If this doesn't happen, keep rebooting and trying to hit Esc until it does happen. Eventually you'll hit the sweet spot needed to get into this screen. [02:23] I didn't work the first time [02:23] Let me try again [02:23] Do you know if the system is BIOS or EFI? [02:23] UEFI [02:23] OK, then Esc will work eventually. [02:24] (BIOS systems use Shift held down during bootup, while UEFI systems require a well-timed Esc keypress. Personally I preferred the old way better :P) [02:24] How do we know if the machine has grub installed any way to check? [02:24] GRUB is the bootloader, if you're using Ubuntu, you're using GRUB. [02:24] Unless you or someone else has seriously mangled the guts of the system, that is. [02:24] OK [02:24] hmmm [02:25] If it's really annoying, hit Esc repeatedly during the entire bootup process. [02:25] This won't get you directly to the GRUB screen, but it's easy enough to get there if you do that. [02:25] I missed it twice already :-( [02:25] Hitting Esc over and over will drop you to a GRUB rescue shell, from there you can get back to the GRUB menu. [02:25] aussietouch: Sometomes is quicker to get "grub" if one spamms the escape key while booting - there is but a 3 second window of opportunity for grub to recognize the escape key. [02:25] i can see they have /etc/grub.d folder [02:26] (This is probably the trickiest part of getting into recovery mode. Once this one hurdle is crossed, everything else becomes super easy.) [02:26] I am trying again now [02:27] Bashing-om: I like the trick of spamming Esc, though on some systems spamming Esc is how you get into the firmware setup rather than the GRUB menu (I have two HP systems that do this). [02:28] arraybolt3: Good to keep in mind - thanks :D [02:28] i can now see the grub> screen [02:28] aussietouch: Good. OK, one more tricky part. [02:29] aussietouch: Type "normal", but don't hit Enter. Position your finger over Esc with one hand, then press Enter with the other and then immediately hit Esc again, just once. [02:29] Ok let me try, i have fat fingers :-) [02:30] No problem, take your time. We'll keep trying until we get there. [02:30] Once you get to the GNU GRUB menu, select "Advanced Options for Ubuntu" using the arrow keys, press Enter, then select the second option (the one that says "(recovery mode)" in it) in the list, then Enter again. [02:31] I have total 4 entries with 2 recovies [02:32] aussietouch: Use the topmost recovery option. [02:32] done [02:32] I can see recovery menu [02:32] Nice. OK, select "root" and press Enter. [02:32] Allow it to drop you to a shell. [02:33] Should i press CTL+D or enter [02:33] aussietouch: Which one drops to a shell? I think Enter will. [02:33] yes I am now in the shell prompt [02:33] OK. Next, run "mount -o remount,rw /", being careful not to make typos. The whole command is important (including the / at the end). [02:34] This will enable write access to the drive so you can change the password. [02:34] cant i just run passwd root command and change the password for root and user account? [02:34] Not yet. [02:34] ok [02:34] By default, Recovery Mode will mount the drive read-only, the above command remounts it as read-write. [02:35] Once that's done, then it's just "passwd ", replacing as appropriate, and then you already know what to do from there. [02:35] done finish running the command [02:35] i have mounted the system in rw mode [02:35] now i should be able to reset the password right? [02:35] OK, next "passwd ", but replace as appropriate. [02:35] aussietouch: Correct. [02:36] Once you've run the passwd command, do whatever you want to the password, then run "reboot", and you're in. [02:37] arraybolt3, brilliant i was able to reset both user and root password, i am tagged to do forensic investigation on this machine [02:37] (by the way this is one reason it's important to NEVER allow attackers physical access to a computer that doesn't use full-disk encryption. This whole procedure works on most any unencrypted Ubuntu computer, and yes, it is a horrifyingly bad security hole. So, if you care about security, use disk encryption.) [02:37] aussietouch: Nice. Good luck! [02:37] (Also, as a sidenote, Ubuntu doesn't usually have a root password at all, though having one shouldn't hurt anything.) [02:37] I am really not sure where to start [02:37] any Linux, and probably most Unix systems [02:38] (have this weakness) [02:38] If any of you have any doc to share, please share.... [02:38] hm, interesting, debian doesn't let you use recovery mode when you don't have a root password, which _could_ be an advantage [02:39] aussietouch: what are you looking for? [02:39] arraybolt3, appreciate your help.... thank you [02:39] aussietouch: What is it that went wrong that requires you to do this? Only expose as much information as should be public and recorded forever in Ubuntu's logs. [02:39] (The channel is logged, so anything you say here not only becomes public but also permanently saved, so don't leak anything sensitive :P) [02:40] Forensic investigation could mean a lot of things to me, so knowing how we got here might help us figure out where to go next. [02:40] Actually, one thing I do know. Take a full disk image of the drive *now*. [02:40] aussietouch: ^ [02:41] Its suppose to be a client machine running windows 10, but someone has installed Ubuntu without corporate permission and used the machine not sure for what purpose, its on the network for long time. I need to know who has done this and what is the machien used for? [02:41] If you do something to the system that damages the data on it in some way while trying to investigate it, you will be very thankful for that disk image. [02:41] aussietouch: Oh wow. That sounds like a nightmare. [02:41] how to take full disk image of the drive? [02:42] dd command? [02:42] aussietouch: You'd need a live USB to do it with Linux, but you can just take the drive out and use any disk imaging software you like. [02:42] it might be impossible to know what all the machine was used for [02:42] Roger that [02:42] If you want to do it with the tools we know how to use here, start by making a live USB with Ubuntu or an official flavor thereof (like Lubuntu), and we can go from there. [02:43] rob0: Quite true. Thus is the nature of recovering data from anything - there's no guarantee how much can be gotten off. But you can usually get an awful lot. [02:43] (At least in my experience.) [02:44] arraybolt3, i am now making a live Ubuntu(usb), can i get back to you once i am done with live usb [02:44] Sure. [02:45] I'm doing a bunch of other stuff in the background, so I will probably be here whenever you get back. [02:45] my colleague is saying he has a live kali linux with him can we use that instead of ubuntu? [02:45] aussietouch: For taking a disk image, yeah. [02:46] Note that Kali may not have other tools you *might* want at some point, so maybe make the Ubuntu USB anyway, but if you want to get it over with as fast as possible, the disk image can be done with Kali. [02:46] (Assuming that Offensive Security didn't do something really weird like remove the dd tool from the OS, which I really seriously massively doubt they did.) === hackinghorn is now known as hacking-haunt [02:51] I have Kali usb with me now [02:51] aussietouch: OK. To boot from it, obviously, start by turning the computer off and inserting the USB drive once it's powered down. [02:52] aussietouch: Next... crud, this part will depend on the hardware. Can you tell us exactly what model of computer you're dealing with? [02:52] "Dell Latitude 7000" is the kind of info I'm looking for. [02:52] its Dell Optiplex 7080 [02:52] OK, one moment while I look up how to get into the boot menu... [02:52] I know how to boot of usb [02:53] aussietouch: Oh, OK great. [02:53] I can do that par [02:53] OK, do you have an external drive to make the disk image on? [02:54] I'll look in the workshop we might have [02:54] just a sec [02:56] found an external HDD [02:57] aussietouch: Nice. And just to be sure, it has enough disk space to fit the whole entire laptop's internal storage drive on it, right? [02:58] If so, then just plug the drive in and open it in Kali's file manager. [02:59] Then right click inside the file manager, and click "Open in Terminal" or something similar. [03:06] external SSD drive is not recognized by Kali Linux [03:06] good [03:07] test successful [03:08] Kali does something weird with, so unreliable to write an iso with [03:14] arraybolt3, it might take a little longer to find External Storage:-( [03:14] aussietouch: Oh dear. Maybe the Ubuntu live USB would be a good idea after all then. [03:18] I reckon it could be faulty external SDD, I am unable to recognize the disk with my windows machine either [03:19] once i go insdie file manager and " Open in Terminal" what should i do next? just copy and paste file or create an ISO image? [03:23] aussietouch: Make a DD image [03:23] aussietouch: So, can you run "lsblk | nc termbin.com 9999" and send the link that spits out? That will let me see which drive is the system's internal drive. [03:24] We're just going to do a full, sector-by-sector copy of the whole whopping drive, so that any data that may be recoverable (even deleted files, possibly) can be recovered later. [03:53] arraybolt3 ""lsblk | nc termbin.com 9999"" machine is not connected to network [03:54] aussietouch: Oh. OK. Well, let's just use placeholders then. [03:54] "sudo dd if=/dev/sdX of=./disk.img bs=4M", replace /dev/sdX as appropriate to select the internal drive. This will copy the whole drive onto a single file on the external drive. [03:55] Brilliant will do that [03:57] hi, can I make bash tab completion not to show some of the options? for instance can I make firef not to show firefox.geckodriver? but to complete firefox with the space on the end as if it was the only option for firef? [03:57] aussietouch: Once that command finishes, you can investigate the machine however you want, or you can make a copy of the image file and work on it in an environment you're comfortable in, or whatever. Once you have the full disk image, just keep one untouched copy of it and you won't lose any imoprtant data. [03:58] imi: sure, just remove that from a directory in your path [03:59] rbox: we're talking about the binary at /snap/bin/firefox.geckodriver [03:59] ok... [03:59] you could remove /snap/bin from your path... [04:04] add a dot before filename? [04:04] why would snap show such bin files.. [04:05] does that geckodriver even work? [04:12] I prefer arch tbh [04:27] I prefer KDE in 2001, but this is strictly ubuntu support. [04:32] any command to find out when the OS was first installed I am guessing by going into some system file and looking at date stamp ? do you reckon dmidecode would do it? [04:33] tune2fs might tell you when the filesystem was created if you're using ext4 [04:35] aussietouch, only date of partition creation gives a clue [04:35] maybe something in /var/log/installer? [04:35] nope. [04:35] D: [04:35] When I bought my System76 laptop with POP-OS installed they told me they use network booting to do the initial installation can ubuntu do such types of installs for new systems or reinstalls? [04:36] do those logs get wiped on upgrades or something? [04:36] The new Ubuntu Server Installer now supports all Server hardware platforms, unattended autoinstall, offline installation, network-gapped install, PXE and HTTP boot, RAID, LVM, LUKS, among other things. [04:37] no more netboot, as it can be done with server [04:37] What about ubuntu desktop could the same be done with that one or how did they do my laptop over the network? [04:38] one needs internet anyway, why the hard way nickgaw ? [04:38] you find the most odd questions.. [04:38] No my question is how did they do the installation over the network and booting it and the entire installation so when I started the system it asked me if I wanted the encrypted setup which of course I did? [04:39] ask system86? [04:39] or 76 [04:39] are you sure the laptop didn't just come with oem software installed [04:39] They told me threw network booting but not the direct steps why as it is linux should that not be open information? [04:39] the regular ubuntu installer gives that option too. [04:43] Ask them about the netboot procedure and package selection, we are not responsible for forks [04:44] tune2fs -l | grep "Filesystem created:" [04:44] might work [04:45] using bing instead of google might work also [04:45] grinn [04:46] joke's on you, I was using GigaBlast ;) [04:47] sometimes ya just want to be part of the convo, y'know [04:47] haha [05:50] Does Canonical sell support services where they can remote into your system to do work for you if you need it done? [05:53] nickgaw: yes [05:53] What is that service called? [05:54] nickgaw: https://ubuntu.com/support#enterprise many options they can guide you to the best option for you [05:57] Can they help individual end users with their support services as this looks like it is for major companies? [05:59] nickgaw: as I recall yes and as I recall they offer one time suppoet too [06:00] I am also totally blind and use orca on the graphical desktop and speakup for the console before buying support are there ways to contact their sales team to ask if they support accessibility tools? [06:02] nickgaw: I am unsure I suspect support on third party programs may be limited to getting it to start or run [06:03] Isn't Orca part of the main Ubuntu Desktop ISO? I seem to remember that, I could be wrong. [06:04] What I would mainly need their support for is if I find an accessibility bug and can not set an option because of accessibility issues so they could remote into the system and change the option for me is this something that they would do or should I look somewhere else for this type of support? [06:04] evening frineds: the brightness adjustment on the panel has no affect on my monitor. Dell destop inspiron 9020 and acer monitor. 22.04 [06:04] orca is part of the Gnome project [06:05] morgan-u2: Does your monitor support a brightness change in this fashion? [06:05] So contacting gnome might be better then canonical? [06:05] nickgaw: Highly doubtful, GNOME is a software project. [06:05] Does teamviewer work under ubuntu? [06:05] Orca is mentioned in the official Ubuntu documentation (not the community docs, the official ones), so I would expect it would be supported as part of the OS. [06:06] https://help.ubuntu.com/stable/ubuntu-help/a11y-screen-reader.html.en [06:06] nickgaw: Pretty sure it does. [06:07] nickgaw:teamveiwer is great on 20.04 but I have a issue on 22.04 that I have not looked into it may be me [06:07] Why on linux mailing lists when I bring up other paid voice speech engines and synthesizers do I get yelled at about them not being open sourced and for me not to use them? [06:07] nickgaw: Because people are grumpy about stuff like that sometimes? [06:09] Yes but if they understood my point in wanting to use a better voice synthesizer then espeak sometimes for my screen I find them griping about it rather rude. [06:09] I mean if you have the money and want to buy something that will Just Work, do that. If there's a free thing that will Just Work, maybe save your money. But don't let people who are pushy about open-source keep you from doing what you need. [06:10] (Also espeak's sound quality is atrocious, if you want to buy a better text-to-speech engine I don't blame you in the slightest.) [06:11] as these people probably have never used a screen reader in their lives and don't get why I want better voices on my system so my reason for bringing this up is will I still get ubuntu support if I install software that is not open source on my system if the issue is with an open source program? [06:12] nickgaw: I would expect so, though sarnold might have more info on this, he actually works for Canonical I believe. [06:13] the default voice is quite atrocious [06:13] lurker_8473: And unintelligible. [06:13] It is espeak [06:13] They should have called it eeEEEEeee! Speak in my opinion [06:14] It is better then nothing but on windows much better voices exist. [06:59] (Crosspost from #ubuntu-devel, haven't gotten a response for a while and am realizing I may have posted in the wrong channel earlier.) [06:59] OK, I know this isn't much to go on, but maybe someone has some hints for me. Using Kubuntu 22.04, I've set up sbuild as described here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SimpleSbuild (I didn't use the provided sbuildrc, but that shouldn't matter here). If I try to enter into one of the sbuild chroots manually for updating (schroot -c source:kinetic-amd64 -u root), I just get dropped back to my normal shell with the rather unhelpful message: [07:00] "E: Child terminated by signal ‘Segmentation fault’". How would I even start debugging this? [07:00] I don't see much of anything alarming in /var/log/syslog, there's some "Running shell: /bin/bash", and then a lot of "Deactivated successfully" messages. [07:02] Interestingly enough, I *can* schroot into a Jammy sbuild, but not a Kinetic one. [07:03] I also set up /dev/shm builds for Kinetic, but not yet for Jammy, maybe that's part of the problem? [07:04] Nope, enabling /dev/shm builds for Jammy didn't change anything. [07:32] Hello guys! [07:32] Anyone knows when USG will support 22.04? ua only works on 20.04 :/ [07:37] * alkisg asked on github a month ago and the devs answer was "we don't know yet" [07:37] https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-guide/issues/15 [07:37] -ubottu:#ubuntu- Issue 15 in canonical/ubuntu-security-guide "usg not available for Ubuntu 22.04 LTS" [Open] [07:39] Ok crap .... thanks for info! [08:10] Hello, what if when I upgraded a package, it asked if I wanted to change the config file back to the maintainer's version and I refused. Can I revert it to the maintainer's version later? [08:15] yes there is a backup in the same directory [08:33] Hi folks, is this the right place to ask for help with ubuntu? Noticing a few issues after upgrading to 22.10 === pong is now known as beaver [08:41] ever since the latest kernel update, my computer boots with the minimum resolution. Works fine if I go into grub and select the previous version [08:53] ravage: Right, I see a .dpkg-dist file, which looks like the default conf! Thanks [09:16] Hello, since the new upgrade (kinetic), my primary monitor only has the top bar with the "activity", time and quick menu. It misses the left bar with the apps, which is on my other monitor [09:16] How can I move it? [09:16] It stays on my left monitor [09:17] Ah nevermind, moved it [09:20] Other question, the quick menu doesn't display the audio and mic source anymore. Can I put it back? [09:22] Ah all good, it was hidden behind that arrow [09:22] Can't find the mic though [09:25] why ubuntu 22.04 kept back some of the upgrades from applying? [09:32] !phasedupdates [09:32] Since Ubuntu 21.04, APT now implements phased updates. This can hold back updates on some systems while they are being phased in. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PhasedUpdates for more info. [09:32] cosmicrajiv, ^^^ === Miles9of9 is now known as Miles8of9 [09:52] ogra: ok, i read it. so previously it was only available with graphical update manager. [09:57] i don't know if some other users have also observe this problem but after updating to kernel 5.15.0-52, the battery is drainig faster. === pah is now known as pa === LanDi1 is now known as LanDi [11:21] Why was 32-bit support depreciated? [11:23] Liowenex, 18.04 still has x86/i386 support; armhf (32bit) support still exists beyond 18.04 though [11:25] I'd ask it the other way 'round: why i386 support might still be relevant? [11:45] I guess this is not a specific ubuntu question, but I am looking for a terminal software that can adjust images (png or jpg). It should basically inform about image current height/width and if higher then 50px, it should set max 50px height and scale the picture to adjust also the width accordingly. Same with height of 200px, so it would be great that height could be set an argument to a command. [11:45] look at convert from imagemagick [11:46] Need to run on Debian and/or Ubuntu. [11:46] and be opensource. [11:52] tykling, Thanks! It look very "spot-on". Will give it a try. [11:59] hermano: de nada [12:00] tykling, installation went fine but it does not respond with "magick" nor "ImageMagick". Maybe a path thing. [12:03] the utility you are looking for is called "convert" [12:04] tykling, thanks. Yes, understood that now. Tested 'display' and it works fine. [12:04] goodie [12:44] Hi all [12:53] looked up a new Daily Activity place today and got asked if i know how to install Ubuntu :p [12:53] What's there to know? Just Do It[tm]. [12:54] rob0: well i done it for a couple of years :p === EriC^ is now known as EriC^^ === _SteelRose_ is now known as SteelRose [14:43] Hi [14:46] Why ubuntu software needs to reboot on EVERY non-snap package update? That reminds me of Windows :) I would understand if its an kernel update but not on every non-snap package update [14:50] kkkssf: wich software are you talking about? [14:50] gnome-software [14:52] Hello [14:53] Would that be a reboot, or just a logout? [14:54] kkkssf, if not related to a kernel upgrade, might be related to a service restart [14:54] I have Ubuntu in two VM instances, and non-kernel apt upgrades do not require reboots. [14:54] its an reboot, then on bootup the packages are installed and the machine reboots again [14:55] kkkssf, i suggest to check /var/run/ for reboot files [14:57] rob0 yes if you do "apt upgrade" you dont need to reboot but there are often packages that are "held back" in apt and need to be upgraded manually or through gnome-software [15:00] the whole install packages on bootup thing is somehow starnge. If something goes wrong during install you have to read your boot logs first to figure it out [15:09] is ubuntu is turning slowly into ubundows? :D [15:10] windows is also slowly turning into winbuntu with its linux subsytem [15:11] lets not make silly statements in the support channel please kkkssf [15:11] kkkssf: packages that are 'held back'? what do you mean? [15:12] the whole idea about package upgrade process seems to be quite a bit strange [15:13] for packages which are on hold other software wont touch them either, not only apt [15:13] it doesn't matter if it's done at bootup or not; one can disable automatic install entirely, too [15:16] in the pas when i had held back packages after "apt-get upgrade" i did "apt-get dist-upgrade" and the held back packages were installed. now on ubuntu 22.04 i have to install them through gnome-software. [15:16] these aren't held packages, these are packages with more complex dependencies [15:17] and indeed apt dist-upgrade will install them just fine while the system is running [15:17] I don't have gnome software installed but apt works just fine [15:18] mjt0k desktop or server? [15:18] it doesnt matter [15:19] apt is exactly the same and works the same way on both [15:20] well on desktop you need snap in ubuntu 22.04 because packages like cups or firefox are snap only not sure if you can uninstall gnome-software without breaking the desktop enviroment [15:22] gnome-software takes care of both apt based and snap based updates, but the apt based packages are updated in a diffrent way then through apt [15:28] however when i "apt-get update && apt-get upgrade && apt-get dist-upgrade && snap refresh" i have sometimes still held back packages after, then i can update them manually "apt-get install ..." or use gnome-software [15:28] kkkssf: What third-party PPA sources do you have? [15:28] none [15:29] only default repositories [15:29] that wouldn't happen with default repos [15:30] unless the repos are broken [15:30] probably phased pkgs [15:30] ioria what are phased pkgs? [15:31] (in case needed we got a !phasedupdates factoid now) [15:31] kkkssf, that's why i suggested to check /var/run [15:32] !phasedupdates [15:32] Since Ubuntu 21.04, APT now implements phased updates. This can hold back updates on some systems while they are being phased in. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PhasedUpdates for more info. [15:32] nice [15:33] cookie for ogra : ) [15:34] that's a nice feature. and in this context, apt does the right thing, too [15:35] I'm trying to run a ubuntu mate live cd. The livecd boots but when i select "try ubuntu without installing" or "try ubuntu without installing (safe graphics) it hangs immiedtly after and displays a "SGX disabled by bios" along with numerous errors about "ACPI error aborting method" what am i doing wrong here? [15:35] oh yes that might be it and i guess what i ment were " kept back" packages, sorry for my poor translation [15:36] street-enemy those errors are normal, what happens afterwards? [15:37] nothing it's been sitting there for like 15 minutes now [15:38] street-enemy, if i remember correctly, you should have a menu with some defaults kernel parameter; i'd try acpi=off [15:39] i installed a snap of gzdoom which configures in the ~/snap directory and it does not find the FluidR3_GM.sf2 soundfonts..i have them installed on the system but the game can't find them ...is there a fix [15:40] so if i wait enough the phased update will become verified/stable and apt will install it then and i can quit gnome-center? [15:40] yep [15:40] lagunaloire: _Please see the github repo for this snap for more info and bug reporting:_ [15:40] https://github.com/Hvassaa/gzdoom-snap [15:40] lotuspsychje ok [15:41] *gnome-software [15:42] street-enemy: Did you verify the image you downloaded? Compare the checksum of the file to the checksum posted with the download? [15:42] lotuspsychje..i read the page url but i already installed the freedoom wads in the snap directory and they work but the soundfonts for music do not [15:43] lotuspsychje..it says can't find /usr/share/sounds/sf2/FluidR3_GM.sf2. [15:43] lotuspsychje...and they are installed on the system. [15:44] lagunaloire: the volunteers in #ubuntu cant help much on external maintained snaps [15:44] lotuspsychje ok..i guess i will wait until maybe there will be a fix later [15:44] lagunaloire: that git is your best bet/hope [15:46] ioria where do i input acpi=off at? [15:46] in general, in the kernel line [15:47] lotuspsychje..well there is no useful information about music at the git repo [15:47] street-enemy you have to edit the boot entry in grub [15:47] lagunaloire: contact the maintainer of the project? [15:48] lotuspsychje..how do i do that [15:48] street-enemy, similar to this : https://wiki.ubuntu-it.org/Installazione/ParametriAvvio?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=1604-2.png [15:49] i dont have that option [15:49] and what you have instead ? [15:51] I have try ubuntu mate without installing, try ubuntu mate installing (safe graphics) install,install safe graphics,oem instyall,boot from next volume,UEFI firmware settings [15:51] lotuspsychje..it is not that big of a deal since freedoom1 and freedoom2 play the wad files and the music [15:51] it looks like a normal grub boot menu [15:51] So I plugged my android phone into my Ubuntu laptop, and the phone asked if I wanted to let file transfers happen, and I said "yes". On the laptop, Ubuntu popped up a "SAMSUNG" thing (my phone), and I "opened with Files". But the folder is empty.... any ideas what's going on? [15:51] lotuspsychje...but i wanted to get gzdoom working so i could swith among several wad files [15:51] I looked in /media/wad and it's empty too. [15:51] street-enemy, press 'e' on the target item and add manually at the end [15:52] wad...go to your telephone and change the usb port from charging to file transfer [15:52] wad then you should be able to change any files back and forth with your computer [15:53] wad it uses libmtp [15:53] lagunaloire, yeah, that's what I figured. I did that, and it says it's connected for file transfer. But the folder in Ubuntu is empty, doesn't look like anything mounted. [15:54] street-enemy select "try ubuntu mate without installing" e.g, press "e" find the line that starts with "linux" and add the bootoption at the end of that line [15:54] wad well unplug it and plug it in again and reset to file transfer...you should be able to see it in caja or gnome-files [15:55] Okay, thanks! [15:57] these are the errors im getting https://i.imgur.com/CdTou0w.jpg [15:58] we got that [15:59] i get those errors too. i ignore them. everything is working fine [15:59] wad make sure you have libmtp installed on ubuntu [16:00] street-enemy, have you tried to set the parameter ? [16:00] yes it didnt change anything [16:00] wad it is free with media player version 11 on windows xp ..but you need to install the library on ubuntu [16:01] street-enemy, then check the sata mode in your bios [16:04] wad: It could be that you have stored your data in a non-accessible folder on the phone. Only certain folders are "public". [16:04] wad: A good test would be to create a test file in the phone folders, then see if you can find it from the phone. [16:05] what am i looking for in sata mode ioria? [16:05] jhutchins no he should be able to see many directories on his phone [16:06] i'd try first ahci street-enemy [16:06] jhutchins if he has libmtp installed and the usb port set for file transfer [16:06] Thanks lagunaloire! [16:07] wad..no problem...let me know if you see it in caja or dolphin or gnome-files [16:07] it is currently in AHCI should i switch to optane? ioria [16:09] wad..and it may work for thunar also but i haven't checked that one [16:09] hello === funhouse_ is now known as funhouse [16:10] wad...you can launch gnome-files from the command line by typing nautilus [16:11] wad if you use gnome..or type dolphin if you use kde...or type caja if you use mate...or type thunar if you use the other desktop [16:12] street-enemy, try to switch between the two, but i think ahci is the correct one [16:12] im getting the same results as last time [16:16] Does anyone else here run Ubuntu 22.04 on Hyper-V? [16:16] street-enemy, does the same stick/CD work in another PC? To verify it's not downloaded or written wrong... [16:16] how it's done in ubuntu/ppa when on wants to provide several versions of a package (in several PPAs?) with support libraries which are common to all versions? [16:17] lagunaloire: Sorry for your limited experience, but many non-Linux devices reserve system directories from file transfer. [16:17] s/on/one/ [16:17] ask your question to the channel Teckla so volunteers can think along with your issue [16:17] lotuspsychje: Good idea, thanks! [16:17] Teckla no i only have the home version not the professional version that includes hyper-visor vm [16:18] jhutchins..yes for system files they do... but many directories on an android phone are publicly available through libmtp [16:18] I'm running Ubuntu 22.04 on Hyper-V. It has been working for several months without issue. However, starting a few weeks ago, it freezes periodically, requiring a hard power-off of the VM. Has anyone else experienced similar issues? [16:19] jhutchins that is because they don't want people messing with the system files or then if you mess anything up..you have to unlock the boot loader on the phone and install a new kernel and os [16:19] jhutchins i have 60 years of telephone experience [16:19] lagunaloire: What the manufacturer considers "system" varies. I have a couple of devices that have a full "user space" filesystem that's reserved, and they default to that system for all storage. [16:19] jhutchins going back to modems on the trs80model 1 [16:20] mjt0k, you could indeed use multiple PPAs, "library", "version1", "version2" etc; then users would have the "library ppa" and one over the "version x" [16:20] lagunaloire: Old 8-bit computers! <3 [16:21] Teckla yes in the beginning of the days for silicon based high speed electronic switches computing and its effects for telephone communications [16:21] lagunaloire: I spent countless hours on 8-bit machines and acoustic couplers and such :) [16:22] Teckla..yes they were a lot of fun...back in the old days when we were pioneering all kinds of boundary breakthroughs [16:23]
