Guest57hey anyone experiencing issues trying to upgrade from old-release sources? everything seems to time out, but network is fine for everything else02:12
rboxwhat are you do9ing, what error are you getting02:13
Guest57do-release-upgrade gets to a different stage every time, for example getting the announcement message (first stage) sometimes timeout sometimes doesn't, and if that doesn't timeout then something at a later stage will02:14
Guest57the actual error message is "a problem occurred during the update. this is usually some sort of network problem"02:14
Guest57considering the timeouts yeah network issue make sense in this case, except everything else works completely fine, even doing a speed test02:14
Guest57for context we're on 21.10 trying to upgrade to LTS 22.0402:15
oerhekshttps://status.canonical.com/  has no reports02:16
oerheksone can try to change mirror to main, if not already02:17
Guest57problem solved, we ran the command again (without changing anything) and this time it worked with everything going at decent download speed02:19
Guest57that means it was indeed just a network hiccup, but no idea who's end it was on though our network was fine might have been host cache? idk02:20
Guest57thanks anyway02:20

cluelessperson_Hi there.  I'm trying to get xorg to start on the AMD gpu04:13
cluelessperson_but when I set AMD in the xorg.conf file, when I boot, I get a flashing console text.04:13
cluelessperson_but not a clear error04:13
cluelessperson_if I hold down Ctrl+Alt+F2, it boots me into gnome/gdm fine and I can go on as normal04:14
cluelessperson_now I can't get the gnome shell/gdm to load at all04:23
cluelessperson_no desktop environment04:23
l88lhi all-what04:23
matsamannot sure using xorg.conf is the normal way anymore04:25
cluelessperson_matsaman, I see, what is the correct way?04:30
matsamanit's pretty unusual to have to configure X these days really04:30
arraybolt3cluelessperson_: Can you describe what you mean by "get xorg to start on the AMD gpu"? What version and flavor of Ubuntu are you using, and what are you trying to get to happen?04:30
arraybolt3Like, do you have two GPUs and are trying to start X on only one and not the other or something?04:31
cluelessperson_arraybolt3, I'm using ubuntu desktop latest LTS 22.04, nothing special.  I just installed drivers for nvidia and amd.   nvidia is a discreet card, and amd is integrated graphics.04:32
cluelessperson_arraybolt3, I went into xorg and tried to set dvice to amd, and now the desktop environment fails to come up.04:32
arraybolt3If you installed drivers for AMD, that's probably wrong. AMD GPUs usually work out of the box without needing any additional drivers (unlike NVIDIA which needs proprietary drivers to work right).04:33
arraybolt3If I'm understanding correctly, you should just have to install Ubuntu, plug your monitor(s) into the iGPU, install the NVIDIA drivers (and only just the NVIDIA drivers), and have everything work.04:33
cluelessperson_arraybolt3, in that case, xorg seems to choose to run on nvidia gpu04:34
arraybolt3Even with your monitors plugged into the iGPU ports?04:34
cluelessperson_nvidia-smi shows "/path/to/xorg"04:34
cluelessperson_yes04:34
cluelessperson_which hdmi you're plugged into shouldn't dictate where the process is loading.04:34
oerheksis there a priority setting for amd or descreet gpu in your bios?04:34
arraybolt3You might need to use NVIDIA prime to switch to the other GPU.04:34
cluelessperson_arraybolt3, that doesn't make sense to me04:35
cluelessperson_arraybolt3, nvidia prive is used to start things after the fact on a specific gpu04:35
cluelessperson_this is to dictate where xorg is started to begin with.04:35
arraybolt3Huh, weird. My research makes it look like configuring Xorg is how you do this in the absence of a MUX switch...04:37
arraybolt3https://askubuntu.com/questions/787030/setting-the-default-gpu04:38
cluelessperson_maybe I have xorg configured icorretly04:38
arraybolt3In that instance, I'm not sure what the right way to do this is.04:38
cluelessperson_When startgnome display manager starts04:38
cluelessperson_and I see therepeating error, mt7921e  Timeout for initilizing hardware04:38
cluelessperson_hardware init failed.04:38
cluelessperson_that seems to be related to wifi04:39
cluelessperson_hm04:39
cluelessperson_arraybolt3, ^ yes, I used nvidia-xconfig to generate the xorg.conf  removed everything except the one section  "Device" and configured it to point at the amd gpu04:47
cluelessperson_I can't get the boot menu04:51
cluelessperson_enter decryption passphrase04:51
cluelessperson_stuck04:51
hohello05:23
cluelessperson_I booted a usb drive with ubuntu, regained access to the encrypted system drive05:35
cluelessperson_and am modifying the xorg file back.05:36

TomyWorkI'm just trying to install the (i think) final upgrade on my 18.04 machine. I'm running into conflicts, because libodbc1:i386 has a different version than libodbc1 now and they break each other if the version doesn't match08:39
TomyWorkdid i386 run out of support earlier than amd64 or is that an oversight?08:39

webchat10Hi,08:49
webchat10I have found that the python3-fastapi is broken in 22.04 LTS and I saw that this has already been reported (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fastapi/+bug/1970557). I subscribed the developer that seemed to me was the maintainer (according to https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fastapi), but he answers that he is just the Debian08:49
webchat10maintainer. So it looks to me that the python3-fastapi is not being looked at in Ubuntu and the bug is not assigned to anybody. What is the best advice to get that fixed in Ubuntu LTS?08:49

ForeverNoob[m]Hi, what would the most light weight Ubuntu flavor be? As in, least amount of packages and the most light weight WM or DE (or maybe even no WM or DE at all if possible) ?09:54
lotuspsychjeForeverNoob[m]: ubuntu server with an i3 ontop will be light10:03
lotuspsychjeForeverNoob[m]: lubuntu is also very lighty10:03
ForeverNoob[m]lotuspsychje: As I've found out the hard way, Ubuntu Server is actually not an official flavor of Ubuntu.10:04
ForeverNoob[m]Pretty weird, I know, but apparently that is how it is.10:04
oerheksubuntu server is an official flavor.10:05
ForeverNoob[m]oerheks: Then why isn't it listed here? https://ubuntu.com/desktop/flavours10:06
oerheksas it is not a desktop..10:07
ForeverNoob[m]Also, I've had a long discussion over at #ubuntu-studio:matrix.org where the lead dev specifically told me it wasn't a flavor.10:07
ForeverNoob[m]So I don't know anymore.10:07
ForeverNoob[m]IIRC Ubuntu Server is a derivative.10:08
lotuspsychjelol10:08
ForeverNoob[m]Well either way you can read the discussion here: https://matrix.to/#/!qvIZMBMUSaddhNqJHG:matrix.org/$7J7aoofnm3tTumyvAfL2lhPS1lN3iR1PocIPLYZMkQ8?via=libera.chat&via=matrix.org&via=basspistol.org - tl;dr I had spent a week installing and configuring Ubuntu Server so that I could have a minimal pro audio studio setup and found out that it wasn't actually a flavor according to the devs there.10:14
lotuspsychjeForeverNoob[m]: as oerheks just stated, -server is not a desktop10:16
=== kostkon_ is now known as kostkon
ForeverNoob[m]But it is an official flavor?10:16
lotuspsychjebut the more experience users do use it as a base to config i3 on for example, and use it as a daily driver10:16
ForeverNoob[m]Well it certainly seems confusing. So out of the desktop flavors, is Lubuntu the most light weight?10:19
lotuspsychjeForeverNoob[m]: lubuntu doesnt aim to be the lightest anymore like they used to, but its still very light, togheter with xubuntu and mate10:20
lotuspsychje!flavours10:21
ubottuRecognized Ubuntu flavors build on Ubuntu and provide a different user experience out of the box. They are supported both in #ubuntu and in their flavor channel. For a list, see https://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu-flavours10:21
ForeverNoob[m]That links to https://ubuntu.com/desktop/flavours10:24
ForeverNoob[m]But I'll be checking out Lubuntu, thanks for the recommendations.10:24
kek_hi so how do I use the docs? I'm trying to figure out where systemd timers and services go in ubuntu but in the docs I can't find anything? Isn't there like a simple wiki?11:08
akikkek_: /etc/systemd/system for your own stuff11:09
kek_akik, where is that documented?11:10
akikkek_: https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/system.conf.d.html11:11
akik"Files in /etc/ are reserved for the local administrator, who may use this logic to override the configuration files installed by vendor packages."11:12
akikkek_: also; https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.unit.html11:13
akik"/etc/systemd/system - System units created by the administrator"11:14
kek_akik, yeah but how do I know I can trust the ubuntu to implement it like that? Usually, such things depend on the distro. E.g. apache2 was very different depending on the distro. That's why I look for docs on the ubuntu site.11:14
akikkek_: i don't know. the ubuntu wiki is hopelessly out-dated11:17

atmarkhello, is the  package in focal-proposed repo the same package when it gets promoted to focal-updates ?14:34
arraybolt3Yes, though packages in -proposed may be entirely broken so proceed with caution.14:34

atmarkawesome. thanks14:41
UnivrslSuprBoxI'm only pulling between 200 and 500 kilobytes/s from cdimage.u.c and ports.u.c today, tried with a few different hosts across the US. Anyone else seeing the same?14:44
jhutchinsUnivrslSuprBox: Sun spots.14:44
atmarkarraybolt3: follow up question, do you know how soon they promote from proposed to updates?15:20
atmarkThe package I'm looking at is `linux-image-generic-hwe-20.04_5.15.0.70.77`15:21
atmarkIt's already in updates in Jammy release15:21
arraybolt3atmark: It depends. Basically a package in -proposed is in testing. Packages in -proposed stay for a *minimum* of seven days to be tested, with exceptions granted in certain severe edge cases. After seven days, if the package has been tested and works, it will be released. Otherwise it will remain in -proposed until it is tested.15:22
arraybolt3(There's also a bit more delay since someone has to see that the package has aged long enough and has been tested, and then they manually "push buttons" to migrate it.)15:22

arraybolt3If you want the technical detail, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates15:23
atmarkI can see the package in focal-proposed but not there yet in focal-updates15:23
arraybolt3atmark: Just be patient, it will come through if it's safe. Is there some reason you need that update right now?15:23
arraybolt3Also even once a package migrates to -updates, there's also...15:24
arraybolt3!phasedupdates15:24
ubottuSince Ubuntu 21.04, APT may hold back some updates on some systems while they are being phased in. This is called "phased updates". See https://ubottu.com/y/phased and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PhasedUpdates for more info.15:24

atmarkhttps://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/5.15.0-70.77 and the patch I'm looking at ` KVM: SVM: fix tsc scaling cache logic`15:32
arraybolt3atmark: If you can, it would be highly recommended to be patient until it comes out. If you're really in a hurry, you *can* enable -proposed, install just the updated kernel, and then disable -proposed and get it early, but this is very much not recommended, and could break your system altogether.15:34

akiku8353v[m]: that shows if it has an ip address configured16:06
akiku8353v[m]: i haven't installed snort but usually you configure service to bind to a certain interface or for all of them (bind to 0.0.0.0 in that case)16:07
u8353v[m]akik: it has the changed macaddress and the permanent macaddress. no ip!16:08

ForeverNoob[m]leprechaun: Luckily it wasn't on the 1st :)18:05
leprechauntrue :)18:06
leftyfbForeverNoob[m]: sudo snap install mpv-wayland18:06
leftyfbForeverNoob[m]: that will give you mpv version 0.35.1 which is the same version that "repo" has18:07
olspookishmagushello, should I have installed Ubuntu 21.04 LTS on a thin client PC (Acer Veriton X270) and I want to give it some WiFi interface, should I expect a TP-Link TL-WN722N to work instantmagically or ... ?18:07
leftyfbolspookishmagus: ubuntu 21.04 is End of Life and unsupported18:07
ForeverNoob[m]leftyfb: And that one will also give me hardware acceleration?18:08
ForeverNoob[m]Because the one installed via Nix for example doesn't (without jumping through hoops at least)18:09
leftyfbNix isnโ€™t a supported package manager on Ubuntu18:10
Bleeder001Can I use and customize different workspaces that are persistent after restart? Or is there something else I can do other than having two+ user account? Anyone?18:10
ForeverNoob[m]leftyfb: I know, that's why I'm trying to install it via native methods.18:11
olspookishmagusleftyfb: I did I typo there, I meant 20.04 LTS18:36
ForeverNoob[m]leftyfb: https://paste.debian.net/1277851/ - I get permission denied errors and the binary is called `mpv-wayland` - If I do `ln -s /snap/bin/mpv-wayland ~/.local/bin/mpv` then that doesn't seem to work because that links to `/usr/bin/snap` and that one doesn't understand flags for mpv, so if I then do `mpv --pause` it just forwards that flag to snap, which doesn't understand it.19:10
ForeverNoob[m]So far installing mpv via snap doesn't seem to be a breeze, so if possible I'd like to know how I could install from that repo (more specifically, which components I must specify in sources.list format), or if I can get help in resolving these issues with mpv-wayland that would be nice too.19:14

sarnoldForeverNoob[m]: you might be able to connect some snap interfaces to allow your snap to access the files you want it to access19:52
sarnoldForeverNoob[m]: I think there's a permissions tab in the software center? check that19:52
sarnoldhttps://ubuntu.com/blog/a-guide-to-snap-permissions-and-interfaces shows a 'permissions' button somewhere, does that look familiar?19:53
ForeverNoob[m]sarnold: I don't have the Software Center, but this is the output to `snap interface`: https://paste.debian.net/1277858/ - I'm not able to do a `snap interfaces mpv-wayland` like described there.19:56
sarnoldForeverNoob[m]: does 'snap connections' work?19:58
ForeverNoob[m]Seems so, yeah: https://paste.debian.net/1277860/19:59
sarnoldah it looks like it's already hooked up for :home. I think.20:02
ioriai'd try to run these two cmds 8you'llnver know): https://snapcraft.io/mpv-wayland ForeverNoob[m]20:06
sarnoldnice, actual docs :)20:08
ForeverNoob[m]ioria: But I already have yt-dlp installed. Does this install it but via snap?20:09
ioriayeah20:09
ioriabut it's something else ; i guess you got ytdl from git or its repo20:10
ForeverNoob[m]Then I'm afraid even more scripts might break because yt-dlp now got replaced with snap (similar issue as with symlinking mpv to mpv-wayland)20:11
ioriayt-dlp is available via snap and via apt20:12
ForeverNoob[m]ioria: I have yt-dlp installed via Nix, but I might try installing it via Snap but yeah I'm concerned about not being able to call it through my (shell) scripts.20:13
ForeverNoob[m]Yeah but apt has an older version of yt-dlp.20:13
ForeverNoob[m]Ok, well I suppose I can install it and if it breaks then I can revert to the previous situation.20:16
ForeverNoob[m]Still gives me that permission error :(20:20

Guest29I'm excited for the new ubuntu release, it could be released any minute now it feels like.20:25
WindyGuest29: what's new this time around?20:27
Guest29Well for one, I'm finally happy to see GTK 4.10 for ubuntu and all the official spins, meaning that blasted file picker meme bug is dead for ubuntu based systems.20:28
Guest29Also, ubuntu has GNOME 44. Other than that, I can't really think of anything ground breaking because scanning through the release notes, it's mostly just package updates and newer kernel.20:30
Guest29Kubuntu 23.04 should be a smooth experience because the KDE team has done a great job so far with squashing bugs in 5.27.0-5.27.3 and Kubuntu 23.04 is getting the latest KDE.20:31
JardaynHey Folks. shift+ctrl are changing my input language. Tried settings, gnome shortcuts. Nda. I'm on 22.0420:33
JardaynMaybe someone's got ideas?20:33
Guest29That's weird, what is your locale and $LANG supposed to be?20:34
JardaynIt used to be english. But that's fine. I have 3 keyboard inputs specified20:35
Jardaynit's just that there's a shortcut for changing the input language that I can't change20:35
Guest29Do you have gnome-tweaks installed?20:35
JardaynI have "next/prev input source" setup. Those work fine20:35
Jardaynyes20:36
Jardaynwell.. i used to20:36
koffeinfriedhofJardayn: check if the XKB group ctrl_shift_toggle is activated (gnome tweaks could help, or some dconf-magic stuff ;) )20:37
Guest29Try reinstalling gnome-tweaks, that might be where you disable the shortcut to change lang on ctrl + shift.20:37
Jardaynkoffeinfriedhof, how do I check that?20:37
Guest29Won't the XKB idea not work if Jardayn is under a wayland session?20:38
Jardaynะั‰ะณั‚ะฒ ัˆะต20:38
JardaynFound it20:38
Guest29What did you do to find it?20:39
JardaynSO!20:39
koffeinfriedhofJardayn: I have no idea of GNOME, sorry. I just know that XKB has this toggle preconfigured. Try `localectl` to check systemwide settings.20:39
JardaynI had Gnome Tweaks beforehand.20:39
JardaynUpgraded to 22.0420:39
JardaynGnome tweaks got uninstalled, but the keybinds persisted20:39
koffeinfriedhofGuest29: xkb is independend from wayland or better: wayland does use xkb itself, iBus does too20:39
JardaynInstalled gnome tweaks, the shortcut was there20:39
Jardayner20:40
Jardaynyeah the shortcut was there20:40
Jardaynweird stuff20:41
Guest29What's weird to me is that an upgrade removed gnome-tweaks.20:41
koffeinfriedhofKeyboard is always confusing stuff as signals are mapped a billion times.20:41
JardaynIt removed gnome tweaks and gnome extensions20:42
JardaynYeah... and there's no easy way to find all those darn shortcuts20:42
JardaynMan, thank you guys20:43
JardaynHad a burning prod but and this was screwing me over20:43
opa7331Is kubuntu 23.04 flavor getting 5 year support? I'd like to give it a try20:44
koffeinfriedhofDepends. You can use wev/xev vor GUI, evtest to check after the kernel mapping, debug the kernel driver(s) and on some devices even the keyboard controller itself. But with wayland you can have one layout per window/application which is real fun ;)20:44
koffeinfriedhofopa7331: No Kubuntu gets 5 years support (but 14.04 I think). Always 3 years max.20:45
JardaynI should really get into arch20:47
koffeinfriedhofJardayn: https://parabola.nu ;) Have fun. All free, all editable โ€” start to blame hardware manufactures easily :D20:48
Jardaynuser-friendly operating system20:49
JardaynArch20:49
JardaynI'll start with a VM, heh20:49
ForeverNoob[m]Suppose an app is available via Ubuntu's repos (universe) but I've also added my own repo which has a higher version of that app. How can I tell apt to always install highest version of that app (and thus use my own repo) ?20:50
koffeinfriedhofForeverNoob[m]: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto apt pinning should do the trick20:53
FossilWhy would mv -f A B      say: A and B are the same file?20:53
koffeinfriedhofFossil: hardlink?20:54
FossilBoth are hardlinks20:54
Fossilhah yes20:54
FossilI need the source file to not exist after doing mv and it finds a dupe it cant overwrite20:54
koffeinfriedhofFossil: check `ls -i`20:54
koffeinfriedhofthat shows the inode. Or catch the error and do a rm only if files are equal20:55
FossilYeah same inode. I am doing a find | xargs. Need to make this a tad more complicated I guess20:56
FossilI figured mv would just "work" in this scenario20:56
Fossilrsync copies the file which is slow20:57
koffeinfriedhofI have no idea how to do this without further checking.21:01

jmwthe screen session from do-release-upgrade crashed on me, while it was configuring packages. How do I find and get back into that screen session?23:05
sarnoldjmw: good question; try screen -RAD   -- i used to use that all the time when I used screen, but I always started with that command, too ..23:11
leftyfbpretty sure the screen session dies if the upgrade fails. I think the only option from that point is to run sudo apt full-upgrade23:12
sarnoldoh :(23:13
jmwthere's a zombie dpkg --configure running holding some locks23:13
jmwthe upgrade didn't fail, screen flipped out with my mouse scroll wheel input and blew up23:14
