[01:06] hi all ive installed a second os and now when i boot there is no grub splash screen showing to select between ubuntu and minux-what to do to fix grub(bios"no uefi required"?

When I do so, it says 'groups: cannot find name for group ID 17 [and ...] group ID 215'. I looked in /etc/group and these groups don't even exist. What does this mean. I am still able to chroot but just want things to work the way they should [03:12] why chrooting into them from another GNU/Linux ?? [03:12] with an ubuntu iso it should work fine [04:15] because I want to. Does anyone know the answer?

That would be easier on the forums I think. Mention the hardware used and which blobs are needed to run, if it is UEFI or BIOS, etc. [08:34] fyi i am using a mb has no UEFI. I have bios legacy to be clear. [08:34] koffeinfriedhof fair enuf will do in a second [08:34] on 23.04. weyland has been crashing today, a few times per hour, seemingly unprovoked. [08:34] wayland?

Regular Ubuntu 17.10 onwards will use GNOME. [08:39] Atque, no, GNOME is using wayland by default, the rest are using xorg [08:39] quem: check your /var/crash to see if wayland showsup there [08:40] lotuspsychje: yeah, quite a bit.

[09:50] i dont see the menu at all [09:51] straight into ubuntu [09:51] No grub screen... strange... what if you keep pressing Esc? [09:51] yes [09:51] not tried but will reboot and try now, ty brb [09:51] Also try with "left shift" held down [09:52] alkisg: i found a more up to date grub wiki, then the one from the factoid, let me know if you like it? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Setup [09:54] lotuspsychje: it's well written but it could use an update; some things have changed since 12.04... [09:55] alkisg: ok tnx, i saw it was last edited on 2023-04-22 so i wondered [10:03] can't ubuntu just get rid of the hidden grub menu? it is causing only problems for debugging [10:05] didn't make a difference man, hitting esc. here is a dmesg paste if it helps https://pastebin.com/juQ6Bsna [10:05] tried the left shift key also, that didnt make the grub screen show either [10:06] l88l: which OS did you install last? Ubuntu or the other one? [10:08] ubuntu [10:08] 22.04 [10:10] might have to format and drop back a version of lts ubuntu to get this boot loader thing sorted [10:10] are you out of ideas [10:11] l88l: if you boot from a live usb stick, do you see grub there? [10:16] What's the name of the applet that's used to controll sound, battery and connectivity? [10:17] bblinky: do you mean the gnome indicator in the right upper corner, or conky widgets? [10:18] lotuspsychje: gnome-indicator sonds likely [10:18] bblinky: what are you trying to do exactly? [10:18] I am experiencing the issue that every time I leave the room with my phone (which is my hotspot) and then come back, I have to go through the menu and go to select network before it rescans and finds the phone again [10:19] I am wondering if I can set it to be a tad more agressive with the scanning when it's not connected [10:20] (btw, I am on popOS rn, but I was experiencing the same under ubuntu) [10:23] bblinky: android wifi hotspot has a setting for timing-out the hotspot [10:24] akik: it's not timing out [10:24] bblinky: did you try to change it? [10:25] No, becasue it's not timing out... The widged is just lazy at rescanning [10:25] bblinky: yea go change it then [10:25] Where? [10:25] bblinky: android wifi hotspot advanced settings [10:26] What does it help to make the timeout interval larger if the laptop does not scan for the network until I press the find networks button? [10:37] yes [10:37] i see a grub from a live-boot usb of any distro [10:38] cooking atm so if im a while on the reply, you know why sorry man === shokohsc7 is now known as shokohsc [10:42] anyone hungry i have the most amazing laksa like chicken hokien noodle recipie-if you help me restore my grub menu its yours [10:42] dcc it to me [10:42] takes 45mins to cook feeds ya for two days and is hard to muck it up [10:43] l88l: did you edit /etc/default/grub to remove the timeout and hidden values? [10:51] akik, should i have this is what my file looks like at present, https://pastebin.com/mUiVbCj4 [10:54] l88l: looks fine, no hidden values and the timeout is 10s [10:55] l88l: do you have another grub.cfg in the efi esp (/boot/efi) ? [10:56] l88l: and did you run update-grub after editing /etc/default/grub ? [10:57] re did i run update-grub=yes, about the second question...im not sure could you walk me through how i could check this [10:57] please [10:58] i have an old motherboard, no UEFI so i think that means i dont need a efi partition [10:58] i am using gpt on the drive [10:59] and primary partitions for the installations if that is relevent [10:59] no swap [10:59] no separate home [11:00] just two debian based OS's mx linux (uses init&sysd if you make it) [11:00] Ubuntu 22.04 and MX.linux wildflower [11:01] l88l: check the grub.cfg file in /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu [11:01] oops [11:01] you are NOT using uefi boot? [11:02] l88l: are you now in ubuntu and you're just missing the grub menu? [11:02] correct [11:03] to both questions/statements [11:03] l88l: try reinstalling grub with "sudo grub-install /dev/sdX" [11:03] okay [11:03] l88l: and after that "sudo update-grub" [11:03] if you're booting in bios mode [11:04] for uefi the options are different and you don't specify the target device [11:04] says installation finished no errors, roggie ty for explaining...will try a reboot should i run update-grub prior to reboot? [11:05] l88l: yes [11:05] https://pastebin.com/Ysd1NQEF [11:06] look alright? [11:06] to reboot now [11:06] l88l: wait [11:06] sure [11:06] l88l: "Installing for x86_64-efi platform." [11:06] l88l: that's for uefi boot [11:06] why does it do that when im legacy only [11:06] i dont have uefi for sure [11:07] l88l: do you see something with "sudo ls /sys/firmware/efi/efivars" ? [11:08] yes i see this https://pastebin.com/iPLxJVAj [11:08] l88l: ok so you have booted in uefi mode :) [11:09] how could i boot in uefi mode (am i missing something) i have an old motherboard and it does not have UEFI (100%sure) [11:09] asus a8ne deluxe [11:09] l88l: that dir wouldn't show up if you booted in bios mode [11:09] hang on [11:10] better check that [11:12] Gigabyte GA-870A-UD3 [11:13] l88l: you can see that grub-install found "Found MX 21.3 Wildflower (21.3) on /dev/sda3" [11:13] l88l: now it's just a matter of making system use the correct grub config [11:14] l88l: for uefi there's another grub.cfg in /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu [11:14] l88l: the main one lives in /boot/grub [11:14] okay so are you saying i have an efi file(config) for uefi:that i dont need and another file elsewhere for bios that i do need? sorry for silly question [11:15] lotuspsychje: I think the "applet" I am talking about might be to the right of the gnome-indicator? [11:15] l88l: you're 100% absolutely booting ubuntu in uefi mode [11:15] *legacy bios [11:15] how do i stop booting into uefi mode [11:16] l88l: the one in /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu is probably a stub file referencing the main grub.cfg in /boot/grub [11:16] l88l: i don't know if it's possible once you installed the system [11:18] then what should i make sure to avoid doing in future to avoid this situation in future. I dont know how i got to installing uefi partition (during installation) or how to avoid doing so in future [11:18] sorry that makes no sense, let me re phrase [11:18] l88l: when you boot the computer you have to select the non-uefi boot mode [11:18] l88l: i mean when you start with the usb stick installer [11:19] i am not presented with an option at boot time like that [11:19] l88l: it could be a setting also in your computer's uefi menus [11:20] i only see (install boot-live i mean) install oem install memtest [11:20] l88l: uefi boot or uefi boot with csm [11:20] no i don't see those on my boot menus ever [11:20] l88l: try pressing f8 when the computer boots up for a boot device menu [11:20] okay [11:20] l88l: that could be another key too [11:21] maybe f10 [11:21] have tried the esc and left shift [11:21] will try F8 [11:21] ty [11:21] l88l: those are only for grub [11:21] and ten [11:21] lotuspsychje: https://0x0.st/HPym.png [11:21] sweet [11:21] l88l: i mean you should try to make the computer show the boot device menu [11:21] got ya man [11:21] back soon [11:36] no luck, rtfm atm hit me up if you think of anything [11:37] please, and thanks for all your advice all [11:37] l88l: go into the uefi menus of the computer, search for uefi setting (or csm) disable uefi and or enable uefi with csm [11:37] hello there [11:38] l88l: ""UEFI with CSM" usually means mixed mode in which both native (UEFI) and CSM-based (BIOS) boot is available." [11:38] l88l: then you just need to figure out how to make the computer give you a boot device menu [11:38] is there life nearby? [11:38] l88l: from that menu you can boot the usb stick installer in non-uefi mode [11:40] l88l: i have another thing you might be able to change [11:40] l88l: change the grub timeout to 30s [11:40] l88l: maybe your computer is just slow in showing the grub menu [11:41] kinda feeling like a stubborn stick in the mud that won't listen to reason, but i assure you i know what bios and uefi are and have seen both during boot time on various machines at labs (skool) vs home i have old skool legacy bios without the option to choose a boot mode [11:41] l88l: another option is to uncomment "GRUB_TERMINAL_OUTPUT=console" in grub config [11:41] will try those two things man =) [11:54] akik, you the man you fix'd it [11:54] thank you very much [11:55] * l88l smiles, yells hooray and backflips almost =) [11:56] Hi, I run linux ubuntu on my laptop but am trying to make a windows 10 usb for a friend, i downloaded the windows 10 iso, how do i create the usb stick? [11:57] l88l: the grub options fixed it? you're still booting in uefi mode :) [11:57] learn to use lsblk to list your drives or Disk's then use a command like dd to copy the windows iso to an usb [11:57] dd doesn't work for the windows iso [11:58] woeusb [11:59] you need to dd if="".iso of=/dev/sdb status=progress or use etcher and dont risk deleting your main ssd drive with operating system on it in the process cuz you chose the wrong sdX (usually sdb, not always) [12:00] Catch25: you can also create it manually if woeusb doesn't work https://atkdinosaurus.wordpress.com/2020/04/25/how-to-create-a-bootable-uefi-gpt-windows-10-usb-stick-in-ubuntu/ [12:00] etcher app image is a prettty safe option and keeps it simple AlexC [12:00] l88l: dd won't work with the windows iso [12:00] etcher didn't work for me either for win isos in the past [12:01] really [12:01] etcher works for sure [12:01] why is that [12:02] hi [12:02] barely social here just tell me your problems [12:02] lols [12:03] l88l: you're just hyped up with that grub menu of your's :) [12:03] lols "Ubuntu is like theropy" [12:03] my oath [12:03] i am [12:03] lols [12:03] i love you man [12:03] don't love me too much ma [12:03] man [12:04] pc hardware is so diverse the the defaults just don't work for every setup [12:28] =) [12:54] Hi all [13:13] Hello, is there a tool that converts xinpit's Synaptics commands to libinput ones? I have this script: https://paste.debian.net/1278983/ - but it's not recognizing the Synaptics commands because I have libinput drivers installed: https://paste.debian.net/1278985/ [13:18] bonjour [13:19] Salut. [13:20] Hello everyone! [13:21] I Recently "Distro-Hopped" to Ubuntu 23.04 [13:21] And it's awesome! i like it! [13:21] however... [13:22] I Have a problem when running any 32-Bit program, The CPU usage goes above 100% [13:22] is this a common problem? is there a fix? Thanks in advance. [13:24] Hello?? [13:24] TheCh0sen: you need to wait [13:25] IRC isn't instant. You state your issue,then wait a few minutes for the answer (and up to days some times :)) [13:25] Never heard of such a problem [13:25] I See.. Thanks, But i thought my internet connection is terrible :) [13:25] Also, mention an example, which 32bit program,do you mean inside wine? [13:25] wine or native, any 32-bit program [13:26] Counter-strike source, regexbuddy on wine [13:26] many more... [13:26] if you need my specs i can send you what you need [13:27] I just downloaded https://busybox.net/downloads/binaries/1.30.0-i686/busybox, chmod +x busybox, and ran: busybox ash [13:28] No cpu usage at all [13:28] So it sounds like application specific; unfortunately I don't have the apps you mention. Find the smallest possible way to reproduce the issue, it'll help others to see what you see [13:29] (or, you try busybox too; if you do see cpu usage with it, something's wrong) [13:29] Ok I'll try... [13:34] Dammit, you were right. It's app specific [13:35] TheCh0sen: How much CPU do these applications take on native Windows? [13:35] downloaded same busybox version ran same command [13:35] Really low cpu usage on windows [13:36] e.g. 20% Maximum for CS Source [13:37] CS source runs under wine? [13:37] I Should note that I have the native version of the game, and that didn't happen with any other distro based on ubuntu 20.04 [13:37] No it's 32-bit native executable [13:37] Are you using wayland? [13:38] yup [13:38] Try on xorg [13:38] tried, nothing different [13:39] Check your GPU usage in "other distros" vs "23.04". If there's no GPU usage in 23.04, it'll expain things (software emulation) === Rahoul17824 is now known as Rahoul1782 === RaGE_Syria58 is now known as RaGE_Syria5 === dabbill_ is now known as dabbill [14:08] accidentally discovered that the sleep function works on my macbook, but, it is very slow to start back up, is there any way to figure out whats slowing it down? [14:08] (using ubuntu/bhodi obv, not macos) [14:10] Hey, so 'lsb_release -a' says I'm on Ubuntu 23.04; but `do-release-upgrade -d` says upgrades to the development release are only available from the latest supported release. I thought I was on the latest supported release? [14:14] or, does wake from sleep require a specific key maybe? I'm tapping enter/space/mousepad and power === Guest784 is now known as atoms [15:06] Hi all, would it be a good idea to uninstall mysqld on Ubuntu 22.04? [15:06] Well, 20.04.6 on DigitalOcean, but I'm just not sure which system services depend on it [15:07] did you install something like LAMP? [15:13] Guest544: Most of that is a matter of hardware, and what actual "sleep" mode it's in. Suspend-to-RAM should recover within a few seconds. Suspend-to-disk takes more time to read the image from the drive. [15:14] Guest544: Some systems, notably networking, rely on a response from the local router or DHCP server, which may add a delay. [15:14] icedwater: It would be a better idea to learn why it's installed and what services might use it. [15:15] icedwater: I would guess that Digital Ocean expects to support a CMS like wordpress or drupal or some other LAMP stack. [15:16] icedwater: Next to web servers in general, database servers are probably the most common server role. [15:17] icedwater: If MySQL isn't actively providing a specific service, it's probably not using much in the way of resources. [15:26] jhutchins: yes, I tried systemctl list-dependencies --all --reverse and it seems to only show multiuser/graphical mode [15:31] icedwater: So it's probably there to support future configuration of a LAMP system. [15:31] icedwater: What are you using this server for?

I may consider another website in future, but it's likely I'll use flat files [15:45] It just seems to be sitting on 17% of memory, I'm trying to halve it to move to a smaller instance [15:45] halve memory capacity, that is [15:47] Ok I'm back [15:47] Sorry I'm late [15:48] I checked the GPU Usage on 23.04 and it is high [15:49] I couldn't recheck on any other distros because I don't have them installed anymore [15:50] BTW I Have an Intel Haswell GPU & The issue didn't occur before hopping to ubuntu [15:51] all my previous distros were ubuntu 20.04 based [15:51] those were linux mint 20 and zorin os 16 === bahama- is now known as bahamat [16:10] in $gerät mit WLAN kann ich einstellen es unsichtbar zu machen ([x] "Hide AP") - ist sowas wirksam? === erica is now known as birb [16:16] sorry, wrong channel .. === LjL is now known as Server === Server is now known as LjL [16:50] Hi, I recently downloaded Lunar-desktop-arm64.iso on a Virtual Machine - haven't seen this before with other distro's, but Lunar-desktop requires a username/password to login.

It sounds strange [16:57] *s/the link// [16:59] Yep - https://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ It's a live build [17:02] Any reason you didn't select the final iso, and you're using a daily build? [17:02] (btw, try ubuntu/ubuntu) [17:04] yep, unfortunately no ISO available with LTS release for ARM64 that I can find so stuck with the dailies - let me know if you find one however, would much prefer to use that [17:06] And unfortunately ubuntu/ubuntu doesn't work:( [17:08] Can you modify the command line?

[17:16] jhutchins that's a very specific number haha - I did do my fair share of research before asking, I think adding a user via command line might be a good strategy - is there a way to do this in a virtualized env. with a desktop image already booted that you know of alkisg ? [17:18] CS-Codes: if it's already booted, it's supposed to be safe so you shouldn't be able to log in if it's locked and asking for a password [17:18] CS-Codes: i think somebody else had this problem too with arm vm [17:18] While if you boot it with init=/bin/bash, then you can add the root user, and later on you can login as root and reset the password for any live users there are [17:19] CS-Codes: this is all i got about it: https://gist.github.com/Simon-L/b52686269d1d9a3af7feba9eebc672ff [17:19] join #russia [17:32] Appreciate the insight here akik and alkisg , will be doing a bit more testing to see if I can find a working solution - seems Ubuntu + M1 chip don't play super nice yet [17:33] disconn === ruser_ is now known as ruser === halvors1 is now known as halvors === eth0p177 is now known as eth0p1 [18:38] I want to dd to a USB hdd. How can I determine consistantly it's the correct USB HDD (no matter where it's plugged into? [18:39] ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid [18:40] but if you dd over the whole device that will not the same afterwards anymore [18:42] ravage Basically, I want the usb hdd bootable "duplicate" if the internal hdd. any thoughts? [18:42] s/if/of/ [18:43] This is for someone that has ZERO technical skills [18:43] and what is the purpose of that duplicate disk? [18:43] IF the internal hdd fails, just plugin the usb hdd and boot, [18:45] ok but you would have to do that on a regular basis then? [18:45] internal hdd or even the HW fails, could still goto any PC and boot from the ext hdd [18:45] also not a great idea to do on a running system [18:46] I do realize not a good idea on a running system, but it was done on the servers when I worked at a datacenter. We would just remove the defective hdd, swap cables, and install a new hdd, it actually worked and kept things simple. [18:47] ...surprisingly, lol [18:48] I'd probably dd once a week [18:50] i guess you could use udev to detect a usb block devices added [18:50] https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/229987/udev-rule-to-match-any-usb-storage-device [18:51] maybe you can find some additional parameters to identify that special hdd [18:52] https://serverfault.com/questions/844109/why-does-udevadm-not-provide-me-a-disk-serial-number-when-hdparm-can answer 2 maybe [18:53] but you would just have to test that [18:53] Thank you, appreciate it =) [18:54] stuuuupid usb moving stuff around on me, lol [18:55] Hmmm, it looks like usb drives does not like reading/writing to itself at the same time, lmao [18:55] drive* [19:06] Moving files within a storage device doesn['t usually involve any movement of data. You just change the indexing. === ord is now known as quem [19:51] hi. when I press the meta key to get the "headsup" gui, and search for a snap, none shows up. why? [19:56] Hi there! Quick question, is it possible to use Hibernate with SecureBoot on Ubuntu 23? I'm seeing a lot of conflicting answers online, and I haven't been able to get it to work myself yet. [20:10] solsTiCe: that only shows installed applications. if you want to look for installable software there is "Ubuntu Software" or for snaps you can also use https://snapcraft.io === ord is now known as quem [20:13] you tell me snaps are not first class app on ubuntu? looking for a flatpak, just shows up [20:18] they should show up in Ubuntu Software [20:19] !eggdrop [20:26] oh yes. it's my own snap that I installed with '--dangerous' from local file that does not [20:27] It should [20:27] Mine do at least [20:27] by the way, I have that error: Can't update "snap store": (null): cannot refresh "snap-store" nspa "snap-store" has running apps(snap-store), pifs 3004" when I try to update [20:27] Some problems to fix then, solsTiCe, ' it's my own snap ' [20:28] Kill that process [20:28] Try again [20:29] Updating running desktop snaps is still not a great experience [20:29] does applications on kde use ram than GNOME 😟 [20:29] Guest27, cannot compare, kde and gnome apps are different [20:30] 🤔🤔🤔 [20:30] only one way to find out; test yourself? [20:34] so what's wrong with my snap, then? [20:35] probably the .desktop file part? [20:35] is it only because it is not from snapcraft.io/some snap store [20:36] 1. without details, how would we know what is wrong? [20:38] you might want to seek help in #snappy === leu is now known as leu58ui [21:37] Hello, I'm having this issue after upgrading to 23.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-390/+bug/2017212 [21:37] -ubottu:#ubuntu- Launchpad bug 2017212 in nvidia-graphics-drivers-390 (Ubuntu) "ASUS N56VM fails to load GUI fresh install of Ubuntu 23.04" [Undecided, Confirmed] [21:37] How hard it is to downgrade back to 22.10? [21:38] Ah, just change the repo and sudo apt dist-upgrade? Hmm but it might be unstable [21:38] so, unstable vs broken.. [21:38] Fresh install of 22.10 or 22.04 would be better [21:38] There is no downgrade, if you want to revert you have to install it [21:38] Hmm, right [21:38] !downgrade [21:38] Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported and may break your system. [21:39] So backup, format and reinstall I guess [21:39] Thanks [21:39] Bardon: I suppose "restore backup" is out of the question. [21:40] What do you mean by "restore backup"? Is it a fancy feature to automatically restore data? [21:41] I was more thinking of something like copying /home/ and pasting it in the new install [21:41] which should be enough [21:41] Bardon: Except for the (hidden) configuration dotfiles which may have been upgraded to new incompatible formats. [21:42] Right [21:42] Bardon: Yes, restore backup is a fancy feature to restore data. It requires making regular backups, particularly if you're changing/upgrading the system. [21:42] I'll be able to manage that :) [21:43] Bardon: for the next time you could check out btrfs and its snapshots (can snapshot the whole os installation) [21:43] Ah right, I see a "backup" software in my software list. I wasn't aware of it [21:44] akik: hmm, interesting, I'll check it out [21:44] Thanks, bbye! === elastic_dog is now known as Guest6438 === swifteh is now known as Guest5276 [23:29] hello, I want to use Ubuntu in my Python program, but im executing my Python program on Windows is it possible?
