[00:00] There are other ways, but for Windows file shares, I believe SAMBA is the normal way to do that. [00:00] I was probably going to use Synergy to connect my computers; with a mouse/keyboard share [00:00] Oh nice. [00:00] I've looked into that before, never gotten around to using it though. [00:00] very useful [00:01] if i ever get a mac, i'll do it to all 3 [00:01] relipse: consider also https://github.com/debauchee/barrier - I've never used any of them but I keep hearing this is a nice replacement for synergy [00:01] now, do I need to press F12 every time I boot to choose which OS to boot into? [00:02] yeah i thought of barrier too , but I paid for synergy a while back and I like Nick Bolton [00:02] Huh. [00:03] Nick Bolton started synergy a long time ago open source, and then went to commercial [00:03] relipse: A boot menu should appear upon each boot. [00:03] You can then boot into Ubuntu (the default) or select Windows. [00:04] ok, as it was trying to boot I saw "BIOS error" [00:04] but then it still booted and I see my name and Ubuntu logo [00:04] When booting the ISO? Or the newly installed system? [00:04] Oh, so you didn't get a boot menu? [00:04] yes I did [00:04] Oh, OK. [00:04] Why is the boot menu so......ugly? [00:04] :shrug: [00:05] It's the GRUB bootloader, I guess it's just nice and simple. [00:05] There are ways to pretty-fy it but I've never bothered. [00:25] refind can be pretty :) [00:25] even grub can be themed extensively [00:25] kind of pointless though for something so rarely seen (hopefully) [00:26] Hello there. [00:27] Anyone there?

I'm running Ubuntu 22.4 LTS. When I launch 'chromedriver --version' command as regular user, I'm getting the following error: /user.slice/user-0.slice/session-2.scope is not a snap cgroup . However, if I launch the same command as root, it executes fine, no error. What's the problem? [19:23] Hi, I have a Dell Inspiron 14 5425. Once I suspend it takes more than 60 seconds for the laptop to wakeup. It works fine with Windows but does not with Ubuntu. I have tried Ubuntu 22.04 and 22.10. With Ubuntu 22.10 I have tried Kernel 5.19.0, 6.2.1 and 6.2.2. I also have updated the BIOS to the latest version.. Any help appreciated.. [19:24] Issue similar to (or the same as) https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=216773. Considering that there is a patch already.. would there be a way to know when the patch goes in to mainline.. few days, wees or months? [19:24] -ubottu:#ubuntu- bugzilla.kernel.org bug 216773 in Power Management "PM: resume devices took 60.044 seconds || Dell Inspiron 14 5425" [Normal, Assigned] [19:32] webchat84: There's no reason not to apply the patch yourself. [19:35] I am not good with kernel builds.. this was the first time I attempted it.. I have run into multiple problems when applying the patch... and the build takes hours to finish.. Hence can live with the suspend issue for a few weeks if its going to be part of a mainline release in the near future.. [19:35] I am going to attempt the build again... [19:37] We used to use kernel builds as benchmarks precicely because they took a long time. They displayed the sustained performance of the system. [19:38] webchat84: That patch only helps Dell Vostro 5625 [19:39] Jeremy31: Still might be worth trying. Dells share a lot of parts. [19:39] It would have to share the DMI Product name [19:41] I don't think product names affect performance. [19:49] webchat84: Does it have AMD CPU and NVME? [19:55] AMD CPU: Yes, NVME not sure.. but have SSD [19:59] webchat84: The one patch seems to work with different CPU families https://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=303729&action=diff&collapsed=&headers=1&format=raw [20:02] can i get help [20:06] Hi Jeremy31, the patch works for "Inspiron 14 7425" and "Inspiron 16 5625". Mine is "Dell Inspiron 14 5425". Would it also work for my laptop model? [20:06] webchat84: You could change the source from 7425 to 5425 and see if it works [20:07] webchat84: How would he know? [20:08] Guest31: We can't answer that until we know what you need. [20:08] my sound just vanished [20:08] i use hdmi [20:08] Looking for a patch for my laptop model.

What applications have no sound now? [20:20] webchat84: The one patch I found should be easy to put into the 5.19 source code and compile [20:21] Hi, Got the following error when running the build..

[20:48] stereo [20:49] Guest31 what happens if you click on the test button and choose right and left [20:49] aog: also https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Ubuntu/Thinkpad-X1-Carbon-Gen-10-Linux-Setup/m-p/5158736 suggests that 5.19 kernel of 22.04.2 could be a problem. in that case use a 5.15 kernel [20:49] nothing [20:49] ok [20:50] i would try to reinstall the driver or choose a diffrent version [20:50] aog: install the linux-image-generic package to get 5.15 select it on the grub menu [20:51] i dont have a driver [20:52] what gpu do you have then [20:52] amd radeon hd 7800 series [20:52] the Try Ubuntu image is using the 5.19.0.32-generic kernel and no screen flickering whatsover [20:53] aog: then try to install that kernel on your system and test it [20:53] if a 5.19 kernel update causes the problem look for a bug report about / report a bug [20:53] I have exactly that kernel after install but the screen flickers, it's a bummer [20:54] Guest31 https://www.amd.com/en/support/kb/release-notes/rn-amdgpu-unified-linux-22-40-3 [20:54] what's so different between Try Ubuntu and full install [20:54] not much really. except some package updates [20:54] you can try linux-oem-22.04c [20:54] that will give you a 6.1 kernel [20:54] also the weird thing is that the flicker happens only if the mouse goes towards bottom of the screen, otherwise all is good [20:54] just to rule out a problem with that [20:55] wait i have it... [20:56] aog try a diffrent driver then for the mouse maybe? [20:56] linux-oem-22.04c: what's this? a package that will add the 6.1 kernel? [20:56] yes [20:57] curious about the naming convention... [20:57] leprechaun: you think the laptop trackpad could cause the screen flickering issue? [20:58] worth a try... [20:58] thank you guys, will try swapping kernels and let you know if the flickering fixes [20:58] leprechaun: yeah, I'll connect an external mouse and see if it happens w/ another devices as well [20:59] ok [21:00] when I bought the device x1 carbon gen 10 it said "certified ubuntu", thought I can just delete winblows from it and be up and running w/ ubuntu w/o issues... [21:14] aog did you try another driver [21:18] aog: Consider this a chance to learn about how the system works. [21:18] aog: Sometimes the installer will use a different video driver from what the installed system uses.

[22:08] I just had an idea and I need someone to tell me how bad of an idea it is... [22:10] my boot drive is encrypted, and so is my secondary drive. I would like to have this secondary drive mount automatically at boot, but I do not want to use a keyfile that is stored on the boot drive because if that drive goes bad, I'm locked out of the secondary drive. However, assuming there is a way to put the passphrase into fstab... I think that wouldn't be a terrible way to deal with this. Since the boot drive is encrypted, storing that key in [22:10] plain text in fstab would be encrypted. thoughts and feelings? I have yet to even see if it's possible to put a key into fstab [22:12] kindly direct me to the hardware enablement team [22:15] spacecase_: you can add more than one key [22:16] spacecase_: What is your threat model for encryption? [22:16] lvsmmusic: We're just fellow users here. [22:18] my threat model lol... it's just a personal machine, I'm not doing anything properly illegal, don't have sensitive work data, pretty much just using encryption because it's a good idea and if someone walks off with my machine it makes their life harder (Ignoring the fact that I rarely ever turn it off, just put it to sleep) [22:19] but I do, in theory, prefer passphrases because they're not written down or stored anywhere other than my head [22:19] and having to keep a backup of a key somewhere seems problematic to me [22:19] spacecase_: I had to start using a password keeper just because of the number of "accounts" I have. [22:20] I definitely do use a password keeper for online passwords and all that, just not my drive encryption passphrase [22:21] spacecase_: just use a keyfile on the bootdrive and a passphase so yoi can get in without it [22:21] spacecase_: i think you have like 8 slots [22:27] alright, I'll look into it when I get a chance. Thanks [22:43] jhutchins: hi [22:44] jhutchins: In the past I had spoken to the hardware enablement team, but I forgot where [22:44] lvsmmusic: You can ask about an issue here [22:46] Jeremy31: Its not an issue actually, I drivers I need are in the new Linux kernel version 6.3, I would like to add those drivers to my current kernel. I thought who would be better people to ask than the hardware enablement team [22:47] Does Ubuntu have a seperate channel fore kernel development? [22:49] lvsmmusic: Developers rarely participate in public forums. They're more likely to be reached by mailing list. [22:49] correct [22:49] lvsmmusic: It's entirely possible for you to apply the necessary patches and compile your own kernel. [22:50] lvsmmusic: what driver? [22:50] Jeremy31: hwmon drivers [22:50] jhutchins: I tried, but I am getting errors during compilation [22:51] I think we have #ubuntu-devel right? [22:51] Perhaps they are not internal drivers but external modules. [22:52] jhutchins: thats correct [22:52] no wait [22:52] lvsmmusic: What you might want is the lm-sensors package rather than the kernel then. [22:52] those drivers are written by the kernel developers [22:52] lvsmmusic: Probably not. [22:53] lvsmmusic: Drivers usually come from independent teams or developers. [22:53] jhutchins: I did that but sensors-detect says it found unknown chip.
