=== Batzy_ is now known as Batzy === realivanjx1 is now known as realivanjx [01:11] well the updates to xserver today did not seem to change anything and did not fix the flickering drop down menu options in thunderbird when you right click on an email [01:12] so i guess the fix will have to wait for later [01:13] at least the updates did not seem to mess up any of the programs that ARE working [01:21] lagunaloire: Have you noticed yet that Thunderbird might be broken? [01:25] jhtuchins..yes it might be..since evolution doesn't flicker but thunderbird works ok on windows and gentoo linux [01:26] jhutchins but i am not using xwayland on gentoo just x [01:27] jhutchins but ubuntu uses gdm display manager for gnome which is running on xwayland [01:29] jhutchins and that might be what is making the thunderbird drop down menu options flicker where you cannot select an option [01:31] lagunaloire: It does sound like wayland is a possible culprit. I have seen others who had problems with it. [01:31] lagunaloire: Most of them eventually just switched to X so they could get on with their lives. [01:31] jhutchins well its just a guess since it works on just x with gentoo [01:31] lagunaloire: It's good that wayland is out there being tested, the problems are at least being identified. [01:32] lagunaloire: So obviously, try x on Ubuntu. [01:32] jhutchins..well bugs will keep being worked on..that hasn't changed in 25 years on linux...and it is not critical since i can still get my email with evolution [01:34] jhutchins i already have stuff working with x on gentoo...so i don't need it on ubuntu...i would rather see how gnome and apps progress on xwayland on ubuntu [01:35] lagunaloire: It might be interesting to try Thunderbird on something other than Gnome with Ubuntu. [01:37] jhutchins well i might try to install a minimum plasma desktop on ubuntu..and then see how thunderbird behaves on plasma but if its xwayland that won't make any difference [01:42] jhutchins i will try to put a minimum plasma desktop now..but it is about 300 files with the libs so it might take a few minutes [01:43] jhutchins since plasma has xwayland protocols options [01:45] jhutchins well plasma wants to use sddm display manager instead of gdm3 but i think i will just keep gdm3 as the default for now [01:57] how can I enable holding the down the middle mouse button in wayland? with X, this needs an device xinput entry, but I can't find the equivalent in libinput if there is one https://pastebin.com/C8NJxQ6S [01:58] jhutchins ok let me do a few things and i will check back in in a few minutes [02:33] I'll be in lurk mode, but I'm sure you'll find something interesting. === realivanjx3 is now known as realivanjx [02:40] hello there! how do I replace text inside the file using terminal [02:43] You could use a text editor. [02:44] Depending on if you're scripting it, or want interactive use, you might want sed, you might want nano. [02:44] Plus a million other choices. [02:45] omg i was 10 seconds too late [02:57] jhutchins ok this is plasma on x not xwayland...sddm will not start for some reason beyond me right now...but let me check thunderbird here [03:00] jhutchins ok ..no there is no flickering in the menus when running plasma on just x [03:05] jhutchins thunderbird seems to be ok when just using plasma on x [03:07] jhutchins i am not sure why sddm is failing to start...must be another bug . [03:14] well i will check back in later..it is getting late today and i still have another issue...that the free fallout 3 game from epic does't work on this laptop so i need to work on that [03:37] hmm... got this kind of an error report: "An unresolvable problem occurred while initializing the package information. Please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the following error message: E:can not open /var/lib/apt/lists/dl.winehq.org_wine-builds_ubuntu_dists_jammy_InRelease - fopen (13: Permission denied), E:The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened." [03:37] is it ok to report bugs here? === csonka1 is now known as csonka [04:04] tripp4h: The best way to report a bug like that is to run "ubuntu-bug update-manager" and then follow the on-screen instructions (part of which will involve creating an Ubuntu One account if you don't already have one). Describe in detail what you did to cause the bug to appear, what you expected to happen, and what happened instead. Thank you for taking the time to help! [04:05] tripp4h: However, this looks like it might be user error. If you describe everything here, we might be able to help figure out what went wrong. [04:10] may i ask a stupid question or two here? i tried googling but didn't find the information [04:12] that's one [04:15] is there a command to see when you stopped using the computer and then when you started to use it again? [04:15] tripp4h: That's what we're here for :) Also, questions aren't stupid. [04:15] tripp4h: Probably, lemme see... [04:16] tripp4h: I think the "last" command is what you're looking for. [04:17] It shows a list of login data, though I'm not quite sure how to parse it, "man last" should help. [04:17] You also probably only want some of the first entries from it, since it shows me entries all the way back to when my system manufacturer was still setting up my laptop... which is a bit further back than I need :P [04:18] arraybolt3: ok, thanks! [04:28] then i'm looking for a gui-tool to compare directories that and their differences, i want to check all the files are there, not binary compare. i heard meld isn't a good tool so i won't use that. === realivanjx8 is now known as realivanjx [04:47] what i need this is for i got a new phone, and want to make sure all the files were correctly transfered. the program should also check that the filesizes are the same. [04:49] Hello, I just upgraded from 20.04 to 22.04 and there are some issues right of the bat, font rendering in messed up and text has abnormally large spaces and the system feels laggy on boot [04:50] cool story bro [04:50] luckily for you we have experts in 'messed up' [04:50] just kidding, that means nothing at all [04:51] seriously, not even a screenshot? the GPU you're running? nothing? [04:51] just 'it broke' [04:51] give me a inute [04:52] v.22 hates me as well, especially on a HDD [04:56] tripp4h: unison [04:57] my bad for the delay, link to screenshots: https://imgur.com/a/A2x8B9l [04:57] tripp4h: I think fslint is a gui the should work it shows duplicates size and dates [04:59] terminal font rendering is fine but gnome panel text has weird spaces in between (first image in the link) === scoobydoob is now known as scoobydoo === scoobydoob is now known as scoobydoo [05:27] i'll try those, thanks lv426res and toddc === realivanjx1 is now known as realivanjx === SteelRose_ is now known as SteelRose [07:54] which version do you use? === enigma9o7__ is now known as enigma9o7 [08:32] hi === gacuxz1 is now known as gacuxz === realivanjx8 is now known as realivanjx [08:54] ravage, yes, how do you get list of editors that doesnt define Provides: editor in package level? [09:07] editors for plain text [09:42] Can you tell me what is this strange bug? I'm using 22.04.1 in the cloud (oracle) and after a while, two errors -bash: /dev/null: Permission denied appear when I re-login to the system via ssh. Fixed via chmod 666 /dev/null but after a while they appear again. [09:42] Can netplan be set to actually detect if link is down up to the internet, not only if it is physically disabled (like with route metric)? [09:43] I had internet not working further down the pipe on one link , and netplan was not giving me internet connection unless I manually disable non-working link.. [09:43] Or is it a job for something else besides netplan? [09:44] nikolam, netplan only generates configs for other tools ... [09:44] i.e. either for systemd-networkd or for network-manager [09:44] woopsie: sounds like something has replaced /dev/null with a regular file. It should be a character device node [09:45] ogra, yup I see. I now know that just putting route metric on interface is not exactly HA for 2 connections.. [09:45] mknod -m 666 /dev/null c 1 3 [09:46] nikolam, what i meant is that your question is wrong ... you should look at the backend you are using to find your answer [09:46] geirha: oh, let me try this... [09:47] but the real problem is finding what is replacing /dev/null in the first place [09:47] ogra, so on the level of systemd-networkd or network-manager then.. ? [09:47] yeah [09:47] ogra, thanks! [09:48] geirha: I'm not very familiar with it all. How can I figure out what the problem is? It shows up even on clean images. [09:48] yeah it says in /etc/netplan/01-netcfg.yaml : renderer: networkd . yeah. [09:48] woopsie: what does ls -l /dev/null say about it when you get the error? [09:49] geirha: crw------- 1 root root 1, 3 Oct 23 11:31 /dev/null [09:50] ah ok, so it's not what I thought. Just the permissions that are messed up; 600 instead of 666 [09:50] But what could be causing this? [09:50] if the image ships with it that way, then that's a bug with the image, I'd say [09:51] Oh. [09:51] geirha: so, chmod 666 /dev/null is enough to "fix" this at this point? [09:51] I ask oracle support about this. [09:53] yes, that's a work-around until it gets fixed [09:53] /dev/null *should* be 0666 [09:54] a hell will broke on a system if it is 0600 [09:54] geirha: People say on the forums that it is a broken oracle script when container is created... [09:54] everything assumes it is world-read-writable [09:54] Amazing... [09:55] oracle is absolutely horrible at writing shell scripts, so no surprise there [09:55] But "enterprise".... [09:55] impossible [09:55] what other devices in /dev are like this? [09:55] /dev/zero? [09:56] (it too should be 0666) [09:56] "Just run everything as root" - Oracle, probably [09:56] /dev/tty? [09:56] geirha: this problem appears as root too. I cant use apt update, for example as normal. [09:56] mjt0k: let me see [09:57] crw-rw-rw- 1 root tty 5, 0 Oct 28 09:56 /dev/tty [09:57] zero same [09:57] I thik apt runs som processes as apt user [09:57] gpg keys fails too [10:02] fwiw, just yesterday I come across dash bug with redirections failing under -e [10:02] for foo in bar; do stuff; done >/dev/null -- it is supposed to fail if /dev/null redirection failed. but it continues without actually executing a loop [10:03] so.. it might have interesting results [10:03] like something appears as done/completed but actually it is not === lotuspsychje_ is now known as lotuspsychje [10:04] https://bugs.debian.org/1017531 [10:04] -ubottu:#ubuntu- Debian bug 1017531 in dash "dash: for/while/if suppress errors from redirections with -e, POSIX violation" [Important, Open] [10:04] (needless to say I come across it the hard way ;) ) [10:06] speaking of the corporations doing such things - this has always been the case with many of them. they need cheapest prices for the work, so hire cheapest programmers who're asked to make a shiny great new release yesterday [10:10] Seems to be consistent for all compound commands except () === de-facto_ is now known as de-facto === realivanjx9 is now known as realivanjx [11:09] Is anyone having trouble with wayland after the upgrade from 22.045 -> 22.10 ?

When I right-click for context menu of e.g. the recycle bin in the file manager (caja), I need to *scroll* to get to "empty trash bin" which is weird/mildly annoying. anyone else? [11:53] alkisg: maybe^ [12:41] When i right click a folder in ubuntu desktop and share it, it creates a samba share, where is that configured? I don't see it in /etc/samba/smb.conf [12:42] dc have you checked /var/lib/samba/usershares ? [12:42] i have not [12:43] ioria: i see a directory which looks similar to what i shared there [12:43] how does this work? [12:43] i guess it is set by nautilus-share pkg [12:44] wow usershare_acl syntax... [12:44] What is this #VERSION 2 prefix? [12:44] or comment [12:45] oh smb version :) is there not a 3? [12:47] dc you mean the protocol version ? [12:47] dc run 'sudo smbstatus' [12:47] At the top of my share file in the location you told me to check, i see #VERSION2, but my understanding is i should be using smbv3 for performance?

[12:56] ioria: correctly applied what? [12:56] the permissions [12:56] ls shows me drwxr-xr-x [12:57] so not [12:58] ioria: when i try and change that manually in the permissions tab from "accessonly" to "read and write" it changes the option back [12:59] dc maybe not supported [13:00] could this be related to the fact that the drive is mounted using veracrypt?

[13:43] in this channel, the preferred way is to install it from the ubuntu repositories, i believe [13:55] ldericher: I agree, I'd advice that you file a bug, I'll +1 it [14:02] Hi, I'm running into this exact issue - https://superuser.com/questions/1428360/poor-network-throughput-but-double-under-high-cpu-load/1749982 but unfortunately it looks like there hasn't been any answers since OP made this post [14:03] if I stress test the CPU and all cores ramp up to 100%, I can hit gigabit throughput [14:03] as soon as I disable the stress test, my speeds drop back down to 700mbps [14:03] I've tried both rtl8168 and rtl8169 drivers but the symptom remains [14:03] is there anything I can do about this? [14:06] Snuupy: an idea could be browsing your specific chipset in launchpad for if there exist a bug on it already [14:07] Snuupy: perhaps under package 'linux' (the kernel) https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bugs?orderby=importance&start=0 [14:08] Snuupy: realtek usualy is kernel itchy, so your ubuntu release/kernel matters as details for the volunteers to be able to help you [14:08] I'm now on ubuntu 22.10 kernel 5.19, but I tested ubuntu 22.04 kernel 5.15 and kernel 5.19 [14:08] all had same symptoms on both rtl8168 and 8169 drivers [14:09] root@snuminipc:~# lspci -nn | grep Ethernet [14:09] 02:00.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.

Or are you using a mainline kernel? [14:28] I'm on 5.19 [14:28] Kinetic, right? [14:28] last comment says patch will be in for 6.0 [14:28] yes [14:28] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1946433 [14:29] -ubottu:#ubuntu- Launchpad bug 1946433 in linux (Ubuntu Kinetic) "Can only reach PC3 when ethernet is plugged r8169" [Undecided, Confirmed] [14:29] "This bug is awaiting verification that the linux-oem-6.0/6.0.0-1007.7 kernel in -proposed solves the problem..." [14:30] Oh weird, it's fixed in Jammy but not in Kinetic according to the bug severity markings. [14:30] That's not supposed to happen as far as I know... [14:31] arraybolt3: broken in 22.04 as well [14:31] Oh, because it was marked as fixed in Kinetic and then someone else saw it wasn't. [14:31] idk why it's marked as fixed [14:31] I'm just glad I'm not the only one with this problem, I had no idea how to search for this issue [14:32] Snuupy: Well the fix got merged, so maybe that's not the patch. Jammy was fully updated, right? [14:32] yes [14:32] And your kernel was at least 5.15.0-17.17? [14:32] If so, then this isn't the fix most likely. [14:32] (If you were fully updated, the second question is almost certainly "yes".) [14:32] it was on 5.15, then I tried 5.19, both did not fix this [14:33] Then either the fix doesn't really work, or it's the wrong fix. [14:34] how do I know if it's already included in my current kernel version? [14:37] Snuupy: I don't think you need to, if you have the latest kernel, and the hardware isn't working right, it's a bug. At this point I'd probably run "ubuntu-bug linux" in a terminal and follow the on-screen instructions, describing the problem in detail in your bug report. [14:38] arraybolt3: will do, thanks [14:38] Describe what you did (download something), what you expected to happen (full-speed download), and what happened instead (poor speed download), and any additional notes (stressing the CPU causes download speed to increase). Be more detailed than I was just now, but that's the basic idea. [14:41] Snuupy: You may also be asked to try a mainline kernel (in fact, I'd recommend you try it now and then add the info about whether it fixed the problem or not to your bug report). More info on that is here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds [14:41] in the field of "In what package did you find this bug?", should I leave it as linux, or change it to r8169? [14:41] Snuupy: Leave it as Linux. [14:47] I meet with issues with Grub2 in Xubuntu 22.04. It creates 3 sets of entries [14:47] also it has become unable to perform dual-booting [14:48] I have been struggling with the configuration files since this issue started. Should I revert back to Xubuntu 20.04 ?

[14:53] arraybolt3: well I do work on software and when I read bugreports to fix I always hate it when I'm missing info so I wanted to include everything ;) [14:54] +1 [14:55] melodie: Can you run "update-grub" in a terminal, and then share the output of that command with us using a pastebin service like http://bpa.st? [14:56] arraybolt3, I just found some clues [14:57] one, from the ยง "3 Answers" here : https://askubuntu.com/questions/216215/invalid-efi-file-path/216254#216254 [14:57] arraybolt3: should I be trying v6.1-rc2 or v6.0.5 here? https://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/?C=N;O=D [14:57] I have added this (hd0,gpt2) to the line "chainloader /EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi" [14:58] about the multiple entries, I have now fixed it with the actual grub-customizer available as a ppa [14:58] Snuupy: I'd try the v6.1-rc2, but be warned, that's *not* a stable kernel. In this instance, that's a good thing, but don't use it in production. [14:59] Snuupy: Also you might notice your Snaps stop working when you boot into that kernel. They should start working again when you boot into the original kernel, so if you notice weird stuff like that, don't panic. [14:59] arraybolt3, and also, the docs are not quite right about where to put the configuration for Windows, I have found a clue in one of the scripts, it appears to need being in /etc/grub.d/proxifiedScripts/custom [14:59] arraybolt3: no worries it's a testing device so nothing important is installed on it yet, not even any snaps [14:59] thanks [14:59] and it needs to replace what is default in there, in case the computer is using UEFI [14:59] melodie: OK wait, that looks like you're trying to write the grub.cfg file manually. Don't do that. [14:59] melodie: update-grub is supposed to generate the file for you. [14:59] melodie: We can reconfigure it to actually work properly if it's not doing things correctly currently. [15:00] arraybolt3, I have not edited grub.cfg by hand [15:01] melodie: Oh, with grub-customizer, OK I get it. [15:01] I have rewritten the file "custom" located under /etc/grub.d/proxifiedScripts/ after I realised that in one of the scripts it states that this is the file which is read, to configure the entry for Windows [15:02] I have adapted it for my UEFI setting [15:02] melodie: Technically the "correct" way to fix the problem is to reconfigure /etc/default/grub so that when update-grub is called, it auto-generated the right file. But if you have a fix that works, fantastic, keep that fix. :) [15:02] Hi all, I am running ubuntu on my intel up board, and I see that snap is using 10GB of data !!?! and it stuff like firefox and gnome. Is there no way to get non snap packages and to remove all of this? [15:02] arraybolt3, I have had a look in /etc/default/grub and have not found anything that helps me there [15:03] Tazy: 10 GB of disk space data? Or RAM? [15:03] disk space yeah [15:03] and I mean this is just a 32GB emmc [15:03] arraybolt3, but for what I have seen just having a look in the grub.cfg file, it seems the multiple entries are generated since the 10-linux-proxy and other proxy scripts all called by update-grub [15:03] Tazy: I don't know how easy it is to un-Snap Ubuntu 22.04, but I know that Ubuntu MATE 22.04 can have Snap removed without too much hassle. Lemme find the link... [15:03] so I will meet with the issue again next time there is a new kernel or so === jkovac183 is now known as jkovac18 [15:04] arraybolt3, but like... dafuq, then I need to switch to debian or something cause each time I update the board hangs [15:05] Tazy: Ye-old Ubuntu is rather heavy. On a system that light, running something lighter like Ubuntu MATE might be a really good idea. Plus you can remove Snaps. [15:05] https://ltsp.org/guides/snap/ [15:05] Tazy, check 'df -h'; maybe you have some revisions still present [15:05] I really didn't want to have to go reinstall. and it's running 22.04 [15:06] ioria, I used ncdu and found this https://www.debugpoint.com/clean-up-snap/ [15:06] Tazy: Oh, OK. When it updates it hangs? How much disk space is free? [15:06] And how are you updating it? [15:06] arraybolt3, well according to df , 11G [15:06] apt update [15:07] Tazy: That doesn't sound like Snap's fault then. apt update won't update your Snaps. [15:07] true, but still doesn't solve why my snap is like 12GB [15:07] Maybe you can run "sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade" and show us where it's hanging by screenshotting the output when it hangs? [15:07] Tazy, yeah,use that script [15:07] ioria, didn't seem to help much [15:08] Tazy, then paste 'df-h' ; df -h | nc termbin.com 9999 [15:08] oh maybe this is something related or totally not, but my logs shows copious amounts of tracker-miner-fs service issues [15:08] Tazy: We can also clean up Snaps, but I don't think the Snaps are related to the hanging board. I figure you probably want both fixed, but avoiding the hang would be more important than freeing the disk space. [15:09] Tazy: Oh that's weird, that's the file search indexer. [15:09] ioria, https://termbin.com/058b [15:09] df -h is nonsense since you see virtual space of the squashfs images [15:09] yep [15:10] duf is nice [15:10] i.e. not actually physically used space [15:10] https://termbin.com/oj7kb duf [15:10] * arraybolt3 has to go afk [15:10] the snaps live in /var/lib/snapd/snaps [15:10] du -hcs /var/lib/snapd/snaps/firefox_* [15:11] will give the *actual* physical size of all firefox uses [15:11] *all space [15:11] https://termbin.com/v9ku [15:11] (or just look at "snap info firefox", it is accurate usually) [15:12] Tazy, right, so firefox uses 240MB ... [15:12] that just says 250MB [15:12] anything wrong with that ? [15:13] he says snap is using 10GB of data [15:13] oh ? [15:13] so biggest usage according to ncdu is /var at 6.7 (seems normal), /usr at 6.3GB, and snap is now at 5.8GB [15:13] and / is 61% [15:13] according to df -h [15:13] du -hcs ~/snap/firefox/ [15:14] that is the only place firefox stres data [15:14] how much is it ? [15:14] *stores [15:14] I have left over gnome folders that are like 3GB [15:14] Tazy, du -hcs ~/snap/firefox/ [15:14] 625MB [15:14] see above, this is the only place firefox stores any data on your disk [15:15] everything else is compressed readonly filesystm images that get loop munted in /snap [15:15] (and you ses the virtual represenatatio of the potential content you would get if you uncompressed these img (.snap) files) [15:16] *see [15:16] I don't think firefox is the cause [15:16] more gnome https://termbin.com/jr7j [15:16] cause for what exactly [15:16] old data filling up space [15:16] there is no data [15:16] this is purely virtual numbers for compressed filesystems [15:17] Tazy, you did not use the remove script i told you [15:17] the actual data for these lives in /var/lib/snapd/snaps [15:17] ioria, I did [15:17] please learn abut what a mountpoint is, how a squashfs image works and how these g together before trashing your filesystem [15:17] Tazy, btw, about the tracker, check the size : du -sh ~/.cache/tracker [15:18] nothing in /snap is occupying any space [15:18] trashing your file system? [15:18] ioria, this script right https://www.debugpoint.com/clean-up-snap/ ? I used that [15:18] if you start trying to remove anything from /snap [15:18] yep [15:18] (which is not actually existing) [15:18] ogra, I haven't removed anything from /snap [15:18] k [15:19] anyway, ignore what you see in /snap ... it is not there ๐Ÿ™‚ [15:19] ioria, I don't have a ~/.cache/tracker folder [15:19] odd [15:20] arraybolt3, I have added my comment to the post that had helped me prior, here https://askubuntu.com/questions/216215/invalid-efi-file-path/1437899#1437899 - I might go to the bugs secion in launchpad to see if there is a relevant bug report where I could add a word. [15:20] ogra, ah okay so /var/lib/snapd is 3.2GB [15:20] Tazy, right, this is holding the image files that get mounted in /snap [15:20] seems like old gnome-3 files [15:20] and one gnome-42 [15:20] yeah === realivanjx2 is now known as realivanjx [15:20] because apps use these [15:21] they are shared framework snaps that provide the respective gnome libs to snap apps [15:22] o.0 I have 2.8GB of journal logs [15:22] i.e. al apps that have been built for gnome-42 and run as a snap usualy use the gnome-42 snap libraries to avoid duplication [15:24] snap connections firefox | grep content [15:24] aah [15:24] ... will show you what an app uses (replace "firefox" with other app syou want info about) [15:27] (if you omit the app name completely i.e.: "snap connections | grep content" you can see all shared libarry/framework snaps and what uses them [15:27] ) [15:43] okay down to 51% used [15:45] overall disk space according to df [15:45] duf says 47 [15:47] ogra, duf makes that squashfs very clear, you can see all the snaps mounted on /dev/loop* [15:58] okay so now I guess all that is left, is to see why this tracker-miner keeps failing [15:59] journal logs might help https://termbin.com/bcwn [16:00] arraybolt3: mainline kernel does not fix it, added comment to bug tracker [16:19] melodie: i think grub developers' generic recommendation in terms of chainloading is: don't do it if you don't have to. in your case - dual boot ubuntu and windows 10 on a uefi system, i'd say: use the uefi boot loader for choosing what to boot, and let each OS install and manage their own efi bootloader. [16:29] tomreyn, thanks, but you still need a working configuration file (else, the ESP partition does have both bootloaders, no issue on this side) [16:29] have a good one === xenial is now known as Guest2176 [16:54] are going to get a updated version of openssl 3.0.2? === floown_ is now known as floown [17:00] Today my builds are failing with errors like this: [17:00] " [17:00] E: Failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux/linux-libc-dev_5.4.0-113.127_amd64.deb 404 Not Found [IP: 91.189.91.39 80] [17:02] hresco3: `apt update` [17:02] I'd guess this is an issue outside my control and another sign that I need to learn how to use aptly to cache the packages I need for my local builds.

[17:12] hresco3: it's not temporary, that file doesn't exist anymore [17:12] Hey, I have an issue for audio on a dell latitude for audio input, the driver (not sure on actual module) is for the Intel Comet Lake PCH-LP cAVS === nicoz- is now known as nicoz === realivanjx8 is now known as realivanjx [17:41] I am able to browse from my local desktop to that IP.

[17:47] from the container on which the build is running, using wget to that IP, I get the index page. [17:48] Any thoughts on why apt-get fails to find that server, but wget has no problem doing so? [17:48] this build was working fine only a day or two ago. [17:57] I trying to set up hibernate on my 22.04 system. I used the instructions at: https://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2021/08/enable-hibernate-ubuntu-21-10/?unapproved=3738296&moderation-hash=946ea2f9fef8062d2d390feeb435b8cd#comment-3738296 but when iI do the update-initramfs -c -k all - I get a message that no matching swap device is available. I do have a /swapfile - what am I missing here [18:01] jpmh: is the swap in /etc/fstab? [18:09] xx - fstab contains /swapfile none swap sw 0 0 [18:10] and /swapfile none swap sw 0 0 [18:11] that's right [18:11] why are you using -c instead of -u for the update-initramfs? [18:17] hi. has anyone replied to me? === scoobydoob is now known as scoobydoo [18:19] Kartagis you may need to re-state your question, I don't see it in the last 2-3 pages of logs above [18:20] my laptop doesn't hibernate when I close the lid. I already have HandleLidSwitch=hibernate in /etc/systemd/logind.conf [18:20] and I rebooted [18:22] I need help repairing boot on an ubuntu mbr esp zfs grub problem [18:22] 18:19 https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2480236 [18:23] xx using c because that's what the instructions at the web-page I referenced said to use [18:24] Kartagis: the reason I am asking the questions that I am asking is for the same reason [18:24] jpmh: huh? [18:25] and xx I tried u and the same [18:25] Kartagis: the reason it does not hibernate is that ubuntu does not have hivernate by default and I am trying to add that [18:27] jpmh: even setting HandleLidSwitch to hibernate doesn't do that? [18:30] Kartagis: that is because hibernate is not there by default, at least as I understand it. This is why I am trying to install hibernate on my laptop [18:32] You'll need something like this, to enable hibernation: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1240123/how-to-enable-the-hibernate-option-in-ubuntu-20-04 [18:34] alkisg: and Kartagis the url I used is specific to 22 and that's probably a better choice for Kartagis since he is using 22 [18:34] what does "no installation candidate for hibernate" mean? [18:34] I didn't see any links [18:35] Kartagis: that's exactly why that URL does not work [18:35] alkisg: I was just looking at that :D [18:35] alkisg: I started my thread with it, let me re-post, standby === scoobydoob is now known as scoobydoo [18:36] https://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2021/08/enable-hibernate-ubuntu-21-10/?unapproved=3738296&moderation-hash=946ea2f9fef8062d2d390feeb435b8cd#comment-3738296 [18:40] jpmh: I assume this guide is using your rootfs UUID and and offset to look for the swapfile inside it? If so, are you providing the UUID of your rootfs? [18:40] (and why not make a swap partition in this case, which looks much saner...) [18:44] alkisg: yes - indeed I am specifying to UUID and offset in my /etc/default/grub file and also in /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume [18:44] AFAIK with a swap partition you wouldn't need most of that stuff as then resume= automatically defaults to the swap partition uuid [18:44] alkisg: is there anywehere else I shuld be doing it [18:44] But it's the uuid of your root partition, not of the swap partition, right? [18:45] as to why not a partition. No particular reason, just as an old linux hack I have always used a swap file [18:45] alkisg: there is no swap parition - remember, I am using a swp file [18:46] Eh, in the old days hibernation with swap files wasn't even possible :D [18:46] Swap files also have uuids [18:46] You may upload the output of `( sudo lsblk --fs; cat /etc/default/grub; cat /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume; sudo update-initramfs -u) | nc termbin.com 9999` if you wish [18:47] done your command - TY [18:47] how would I get the UUID of a swap file [18:48] OK, we'll need the termbin URL it producd in order to see the output === neobiscuit is now known as Neo [18:50] jpmh: sudo file /swapfile [18:50] alkisg: oops: https://termbin.com/kjdf0 [18:51] EriC^^: TY - yep - I see the UUID now - and indeed I am using the UUID of the / not the /swapfile [18:52] RESUME=UUID=resume=UUID=6b2ce25b-bc09-41fa-894f-70f9655fab24 resume_offset=1968128 [18:52] should be instead: RESUME=UUID=6b2ce25b-bc09-41fa-894f-70f9655fab24 resume_offset=1968128 [18:53] I.e. you have an extra resume=UUID there, delete it [18:56] alkisg: TY so much - not tested that it all works - but at least now there are no errors. so next step needs to be re-boot, so I will have to step away [18:56] ๐Ÿ‘๏ธ [19:00] OK - so I have rebooted - etc - alkisg - the pm-hibernate command generates no error but also seems to do nothing [19:02] Run `journalctl -fb`, then pm-hibernate, then check for warnings/errors [19:02] I assume your swap file is bigger than your ram, right? [19:04] alkisg: TY - indeed : Lockdown: grep: hibernation is restricted; see man kernel_lockdown.7 [19:05] disable secure boot [19:06] xx: can I do that without doing any damage, and how do I do that? [19:07] I was reading the manual page and had come to that conclusion too [19:09] you disable it from the bios jpmh [19:09] should be under booting/security [19:11] yes, but don't I need to use mokutil on the linux machine too? [19:12] nope, not to disable it [19:12] you can see if it's enabled using mokutil --sb-state [19:13] Eric and it is telling me that it is enabled - other than BIOS change and re-boot do I need to do anything? [19:14] EriC^^: . [19:14] I'm going to test - so need to re-boot and lose connection - [19:18] you guys are AMAZING EriC^^ xx and alkisg - pm-hibernate now works PERFECTLY [19:18] ty so much [19:18] this is why I LOVE Ubuntu - the community is amazing [19:19] !next [19:19] Kinetic Kudu is the codename for Ubuntu 22.10.

Useful to know. === noidea_ is now known as stlucas|mtg === NightMonkey_ is now known as NightMonkey === pah is now known as pa [20:58] I have some drives on my machine that appear as fuseblk on df -T - i have an idea why they appear as such, but where would they be being mounted in this way? Some startup script? I configured this machine ages ago. Where might i start looking [21:01] oh seems this is used for ntfs :) [21:01] this is happening automatically, is it possible to over-ride the default params to mount somewhere for this drive? perms are "wrong" [21:03] ah /etc/fstab - im on a roll!

I have an issue that I suspect I could just google, but really I'm more interested in finding out how I could go about debugging it myself. I have a lenovo x1 yoga gen 6, which comes with a touchscreen and pen, but the default button mapping has no option to right-click and I can't seem to reassign it in settings [22:20] I have, I would say, intermediate experience with linux internals, but I'm unsure how to learn things like this, and I'd really love to have a deeper understanding of the system. If I were to take a guess, I might try to look around systemd to see if any services there seem relevant to processing this kind of input, and then poke around in related [22:20] files/drivers I see linked to from that configuration, but it's a shot in the dark [22:22] heptahedron: maybe try 'xev' in a terminal use it and see if it registers [22:23] EriC^^: that sounds useful, I'll try it--can I ask how you came to know about this utility? [22:24] heptahedron: came across it while in this channel :) [22:24] ah, well thanks haha [22:44] heptahedron: "Mouse" functions are usually managed by the grapical subsystem. I believe the default is Wayland, which has some serious limitations. One of the first things to try would be switching to the Xwindows server instead. [22:45] heptahedron: You might also look for a driver for that specific model of touchscreen - which will probably only show up under LSPCI - notebook manufacturers use chipsets from separate companies. === V1A is now known as VIA === xx is now known as x_x [23:20] hello.

[23:34] thanks [23:36] faLUKE, Most companies don't compete with each other, Canonical doesn't create Ubuntu, they simply own it. Ubuntu is created by the community. There's no competition between open source projects, only open source projects and closed source ones, so the only real competitors to Canonical, in extension, since they own rights to Ubuntu, are Microsoft and Apple. [23:37] But even then, Microsoft and Apple have given back to the open source conmmunity with code changes. So you could argue that they're not even really competitors. [23:38] Liowenex: thanks, I was thinking the same thing
