| phil_azing | My 22.04 gnome settings/users does no show the fingerprint option but fprintd-* (enroll and so on) work and I can use my fingerprint to logon. How do I track down why it is not in settings/users? | 03:26 |
|---|---|---|
| phil_azing | I have Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS with gnome 42.5 | 03:30 |
| LPLuigiEspenlaub | New machine, preinstalled Win11, Installed Ubuntu in dual boot, but after success message: could not find UEFI partition? Re-tryed install from USB, but at partition window [Next] is grayed out. Want to install grub2 which is not showing in the UEFI boot screen. | 03:53 |
| tomreyn | LPLuigiEspenlaub: make sure the ubuntu installer boots in uefi mode, try with secure boot disabled | 03:58 |
| tomreyn | this, types into a terminal window, would tell how you booted: echo -n 'This system booted via: '; [ -d /sys/firmware/efi ] && echo UEFI || echo BIOS | 03:59 |
| Pr070cal_ | hi guys anyone on | 04:11 |
| Pr070cal_ | im having trouble dual booting 22.10 and win11 after i install win11 i install ubuntu 22.10 and the win boot partition doesnt boot anymore and grub doesnt list windows | 04:12 |
| Pr070cal_ | how can i rebuild win11 boot partition | 04:13 |
| WaV | When you installed, did you choose "Install along Windows" | 04:30 |
| WaV | alongside* or whatever the verbage is | 04:31 |
| Echelon[m] | if i am not wrong it was probably the partitioning choices | 04:33 |
| Echelon[m] | if you want to remove the existing files and install ubuntu on it, in which case windows will be deleted | 04:33 |
| Echelon[m] | and the other was custom partitioning which was for dual booting | 04:33 |
| phil_azing | Where should I go to get help on Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS with gnome 42.5 failing to see a working fprintd? | 04:41 |
| JanC | phil_azing: is it gnome failing to see it or some application? | 04:44 |
| phil_azing | My 22.04 gnome settings/users does not show the fingerprint option but fprintd-* (enroll and so on) work and I can use my fingerprint to logon. How do I track down why it is not in settings/users? | 04:45 |
| JanC | is the settings app supposed to support that? | 04:46 |
| * JanC has never used fingerprints like that | 04:46 | |
| phil_azing | Yes but the opion only shows if there is a working fprintd I think. | 04:47 |
| JanC | from a security PoV fingerprints aren't a very good replacement for passwords BTW | 04:47 |
| JanC | (but that's irrelevant for the issue) | 04:48 |
| JanC | phil_azing: was fprintd installed & started before you started your current Gnome session? | 04:52 |
| JanC | seems like it properly dbus initiated & such, so in theory that shouldn't be an issue, but just to be sure... | 04:53 |
| lotuspsychje | think we got a good fingerprint wiki out there, but oerheks just left he knows about it | 04:54 |
| phil_azing | systemctl status fprintd.service shows as loaded (/lib/systemd/system/fprintd.service; static) inactive (dead) but it starts on use and times out after 30 seconds. | 04:56 |
| JanC | I suppose you are trying to do something like this: https://itsfoss.com/fingerprint-login-ubuntu/ | 04:57 |
| phil_azing | Yes, that is the idea. It all works other than control via settings/users | 04:58 |
| JanC | did you configure it in some other way instead? | 04:59 |
| phil_azing | It worked on initial install but there have been upgrades since and a bios update so something has changed to lose the function. I was thinking apparmor or permitions elsewhere. | 05:01 |
| JanC | oh | 05:01 |
| phil_azing | I now set it up via fprint-d enrol username | 05:02 |
| JanC | is that supposed to be compatible with the Gnome stuff? | 05:03 |
| phil_azing | So it has to do with the connection from gnome to fprintd I suspect. I don't know how to track down the problem. | 05:03 |
| phil_azing | I assume the gnome usage is via fprint in the same way as fprintd-enrol talks to the daemon. | 05:05 |

| JanC | phil_azing: I would assume it talks the same to the daemon, but I'm not sure it configures anything for login? | 05:22 |
| JanC | based on the manpage, it just stores a fingerprint in a fingerprint database, but honestly I don't know enough about this to be useful... :-/ | 05:23 |

| Jari--_ | I can not install Ubuntu on this machine, can not access BIOS, and can not boot from external USB hard disk I have. | 06:04 |
| Jari--_ | So, is there a way to install Ubuntu from Windows 12? | 06:04 |
| Jari--_ | NTFS | 06:04 |
| Jari--_ | 11 | 06:04 |
| alkisg | Jari--_: you can install WSL, or Ubuntu in Virtualbox, or use VirtualBox to install Ubuntu on a physical partition while running from Windows 11 | 06:09 |
| alkisg | But... why can't you access the BIOS or boot from USB? | 06:10 |
| alkisg | (or boot from LAN, or whatever other "normal" way to install Ubuntu...) | 06:11 |
| Jari--_ | alkisg: BIOS is jammed, dunno | 06:13 |
| Jari--_ | but Windows 11 boots well | 06:13 |
| JanC | Windows 11 can't boot from BIOS | 06:13 |
| Jari--_ | it just displays a message, like going to BIOS, and I wote for 30 minutes, and the message still stands there | 06:13 |
| JanC | so I assume you mean UEFI ;) | 06:13 |
| alkisg | Jari--_: go to the menu to reboot windows. While clicking it, hold down the shift button. It will show advanced reboot options, and it will allow you to boot into UEFI | 06:13 |
| Jari--_ | alkisg: thx | 06:14 |
| Jari--_ | shift | 06:14 |
| JanC | if the firmware setup is broken, that won't help either, of course... | 06:15 |
| JanC | but worth a try | 06:15 |

| raub | Installing ubuntu 20.04 in a macbook. I am getting the black screen with a likke - that reminds me of NVIDIA issues | 15:06 |
| raub | So during boot I added the nomodeset, deleted quiet and spash so I can see messages, and it spit out messages as expect. But I am still getting the black screen | 15:07 |
| raub | Booting off install USB does not lead to the problem. | 15:07 |
| raub | What else should I try? | 15:07 |
| EriC^^ | raub: try to see which driver its using during the live usb session, "lshw -c video" might show | 15:09 |
| youcef | who tried anbox | 15:11 |

| EriC^^ | raub: that's what's next to 'configuration, driver=..." ? | 15:18 |
| WaV | raub: nomodeset to get into desktop environment then sudo apt install nvidia-driver-470 | 15:18 |
| Linux_Curmudgeon | WaV, please elaborate. | 15:19 |
| WaV | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PhasedUpdates | 15:19 |
| Linux_Curmudgeon | Thanks WaV | 15:21 |
| WaV | raub: Sorry I just scrolled up and saw that you already tried nomodeset | 15:24 |
| raub | WaV: nomodeset did not work, as mentioned before. So I was asking for options. | 15:51 |
| raub | EriC^: I will have to check it again; recahrging laptop right now | 15:52 |
| raub | WaV: And I too did nto scroll to see your comment on scrolling. =) | 15:53 |
| jhutchins | raub: Did you get a console with nomodeset, or was the screen unresponsive? Can you boot to "rescue mode"? | 15:55 |
| jhutchins | raub: (That's sometimes an option on the grub boot menu.) | 15:55 |
| jhutchins | Luckily in linux you don't need a working GUI to fix the GUI. | 15:56 |
| raub | jhutchins: I think I will boot it in full console mode and then start wifi so I can install packages. I am annoyed I cannot switch to a terminal window using ctrl-alt-fX | 16:12 |
| raub | But that also happen with my other ubuntu-running MAc | 16:13 |
| EriC^ | raub: you could chroot from the live usb to install packages | 16:15 |
| jhutchins | raub: If I understand correctly, there's a kernel-level framebuffer driver that has to load for Nvidia. The fallback to VESA graphics mostly doesn't work, and if the FB driver fails you get nothing. | 16:38 |
| jhutchins | raub: If it's not present at all you might get a normal console-backed session, but I'm not sure. | 16:39 |
| jhutchins | There are people madly pushing Ubuntu down the road to full Windows compatibility, BSOD and all. | 16:39 |
| jhutchins | Some of the newere users actually believe there's something bad and dangerous about a raw console. | 16:40 |

| Roey | hello all, anyone here know about setting up btrfs over luks during installation and manual partitioning? | 17:39 |
| jhutchins | Roey: Sounds like you're building yourself a headache on purpose. Why? | 17:39 |
| Roey | jhutchins: sudden streak of hidden masochism | 17:40 |
| Roey | jhutchins: here's how it started: I first installed Kubuntu using the fully automated partitioning, only to find that my system wouldn't boot ("No operating system found"). Turns out that Ubiquity had installed EFI/GPT partitions. Only thing is that this laptop is circa 2009--no UEFI | 17:41 |
| Roey | jhutchins: so I got the advice to manually partition it | 17:42 |
| jhutchins | Roey: I would say that _during_ installation is unlikely. If you were to build the filesystem prior to installation, you might get there, but I suspect that the installer wants to format root, and it doesn't offer btrfs. | 17:42 |
| Roey | instead. | 17:42 |
| Roey | jhutchins: so I baiscally dropped to a Konsole off the livecd | 17:42 |
| Roey | and created /boot, swap (encrypted), and want to make / and /home as subvolumes of a BTRFS volume on a LUKS-encrypted partition. | 17:43 |
| Roey | and I wonder if Ubiquity will undertand this setup | 17:43 |
| Roey | understand* | 17:43 |
| jhutchins | Another possibility would be to build an Ubuntu system on a nice, normal ext filesystem, then file-copy it to your btrfs/luks system. | 17:43 |
| Roey | ah, also an option | 17:43 |
| Roey | as I do have theo riginal hard drive from my older system with me | 17:43 |
| jhutchins | Roey: If you create a separate /boot you will be back here asking how to deal with /boot running out of space. | 17:44 |
| Roey | I gave it 4 GB | 17:44 |
| jhutchins | Roey: There is no good reason to do that on a modern system. | 17:44 |
| Roey | jhutchins: yeah and I agree with you; I've encountered this before. | 17:44 |
| Roey | jhutchins: so the resaon that it wsa suggested to me to put /boot on a separate partition, | 17:45 |
| Roey | jhutchins: was because I wanted originally to do /boot, / and /home on one BTRFS partition that was encrypted | 17:45 |
| Roey | but apparently Kubuntu has issues with that setup | 17:45 |
| Roey | specifically, btrfs and encryption for /boot | 17:45 |
| Roey | *encrypted btrfs for /boot, rather | 17:45 |
| Roey | and this way I have unencrypted /boot as btrfs on a separate partition. | 17:46 |
| jhutchins | Well, you're into it to learn, encrypted boot is possible, don't know about btrfs. | 17:46 |
| Roey | ok | 17:46 |
| Roey | I mean I just wnat my laptop to work | 17:46 |
| Roey | not as much to learn | 17:46 |
| Roey | I do know that I want my stuff encrypted as it is a laptop and can be stolen | 17:47 |
| jhutchins | Yes, that's a good idea. | 17:49 |
| jhutchins | Then again, some people encrypt their data, then put the password in the boot config. | 17:49 |
| Roey | YEAHHHHHH see? | 17:49 |
| Roey | that's why I wanted an encrypted /boot. | 17:49 |
| jhutchins | Roey: If it will boot without entering a password there's no point in encryption. | 17:50 |
| Roey | right right. | 17:50 |
| Roey | 100 agree. | 17:50 |
| Roey | 100%. | 17:50 |
| jhutchins | Anyway, the (on-topic) question was running the installer with btrfs and encryption, and I don't know anything about either topic, so I'll sit this out. | 17:51 |
| Roey | alright. well I appreciate your input. | 17:51 |

| p0indexter | why are packages kept back by apt and how do i restore them | 19:13 |
| rfm | p0indexter, usually it's phasing, and all you do is wait until your turn comes around. run "apt-cache policy <package being held> to see if phasing is in force | 19:14 |
