idrishi, how can I enable DisplayLink on 22.04.2, already installed displaylink-driver from synaptic but lsusb doesn't list any displaylink devices...00:48

l88lhi all could you help me please see pastebin https://pastebin.com/RGqxfF1y00:53
l88lre bios uefi00:53
l88linstallation and partitoning for a board with bios only and wanting the correct part table (mbr gpt)00:54
tomreynidris: i recommend reading the overview on top of https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/DisplayLink (while this is for arch linux, any more generic statements will also apply to ubuntu)00:58
tomreynl88l: i recommend against your approach of installing 4 linux distros on a single disk, as bare metal bootable. there is most likely no actual use case for that, and it involves complexities you probably don't need to expose yourself to.01:00
tomreynl88l: if this is a persnoal desktop / laptop / daily driver computer, then choose one distro, and use containers or virtualization to run the others,01:01
tomreynif you still think you have a use case for booting 4 linux distros from bare metal, shall we discuss it?01:03
tomreynthis mainboard is really old, you'll be able to dave a lot of energy if you'll use a more recent one.01:05
tomreyn*save, not dave :)01:06

tomreynl88l: https://dpaste.org/kU2QV01:13
l88ltomreyn, ty do you have a better idea (main os bare-metal other os on vm qemu etcetera01:14
tomreynl88l: i still don't know your use case. why do you need multiple linux distros?01:14
tomreyni'm asking because recommending a suitable alterantive approach is really difficult without knowing that01:15
l88li like to take have one os i can use most days windows server and desktop for skool lab work and other partitions for testing the water(see what its all about:testdrive distro)01:16
l88lso i mess with Ubuntu or MXlinux most days01:16
l88land use the rest on a vm perhaps?01:16
tomreynsounds like a perfect use case for containers / VMs to me.01:17
l88lcan i containerize an OS or just a service01:17
tomreynstill, you may want newer hardware01:17
l88llol i do01:17
* l88l laughs endlessly01:18
tomreynyou can containerize linux on linux01:18
l88lwhats proxmox is it containerization01:18

l88l*a containerization manager?01:19
tomreyni think VMs only, but not sure. it's not part of ubuntu01:19
l88lall g reading google01:19
tomreynactually proxmox seems to support LXC01:20
tomreynso i guess it supports either01:21
tomreynbut you could also use LXC or LXD directly on ubuntu01:21
tomreynor KVM for virtualization01:21

l88lgot you, is proxmox a linux thing being foss or more aimed at sysadmins using windows?01:22
l88lsaw it on a video youtube, dont know much more about it other than what im scan reading while talking to you01:23

l88lis it possible to install Ubuntu with out an efi partiton being automatically made for you-how(i have no UEFI and want to install grub to mbr)02:04
l88lhow do i make a Ubuntu usb installer that i can boot in a non UEFI mode02:08
l88lsome of what i've reads leads me to think that in spite of my system being mbr/bios only the usb installer can launch in either bios or uefi mode?02:09
l88leven on my system02:09
l88lam i getting confused(conflating of two separate un-related subjects)02:10
rboxhuh?02:10
rboxwhat happens when you boot it02:10
l88li know sound stupid to me also02:10
l88lso i have a pc that i boot and it has no uefi capabillity, how ever ubuntu when installed always makes an efi partiton02:11
l88lwhy02:11
l88li have no uefi02:11
l88lso my make the partition02:11
rboxwhy does it matter if there is an efi partition?02:11
rboxdoes it not boot?02:11
l88li thought the efi partition stores all the boot info for UEFI-hence it existence02:12
l88li think im getting the old confused with the new02:12
rboxwhat?02:12
l88lefi and uefi02:12
rboxdoes your system boot02:12
rboxyes or no02:12
l88lit boots02:13
rboxand the problem is...02:13
l88lbut i have a partiton that i beleive to be useless and don't know why installer created it, the efi parition02:13
rboxOMG02:13
rboxITS USELESS!?02:13
l88li thought my system being legacy bios would use first sector area for mbr02:13
rboxwho says its not?02:14
l88lexplain to me what assumptions of mine are wrong02:14
l88ltrying to learn02:14
l88lme stupid you wise02:14
rboxthe assumption that there is something wrong02:14
l88lty02:14
l88lrbox system boots slow Ubuntu 22.04 how to fix02:17
l88lreason for my investigating grub efi uefi etc02:17
rboxsystemd-analyze can show you slow t hings02:17
l88lgoal install ubuntu boot fast not take over 3mins02:17
l88ltried that02:17
l88lseen output02:18
l88lall of a sudden two versions of LTS boot very slow, compared to prior releases02:18
l88lthought it may have to do with disk partion table format or booting mode(uefi vs mbr) even thought my motherboard cant support UEFI02:19
jhutchinsShould we tell hime to install the "bootfaster" package?02:19
l88lis that in AUR02:20
rboxl88l: oce the kernel loads, how it was loaded is irrelvent02:20
jhutchinsl88l: There are systemd tools that will show you what services are delaying the boot process.02:20
jhutchinsl88l: As distributed, the system is a compromise among several properties - speed being one of them.  Size and reliability are others.02:21
jhutchinsI do know a guy who built his own init system.  It was a little bit faster than the SysV of the time.02:22
l88li get it gnome is fully prepared and loads servcies to make stuff open quickly-there is a cost02:22
l88lmx linux02:22
l88luses it02:22
l88lworks so fast on this old hardware02:23
EriC^^l88l: lately ubuntu just creates efi partition, installer has gotten "let's throw things at the wall and see what sticks" kind of attitude02:23
l88lbut ubuntu has slowed down in recent releases for my hardware02:23
l88lty EriC^^02:23
EriC^^l88l: did you try the systemd analyzer and the 'blame' option to see what's taking time while booting?02:23
l88lyes02:24
jhutchinsl88l: Seriously, investigating what's slowing down your boot process is going to get you a lot farther than complaining here.02:24
l88ljhutchins, go home mate02:24
l88lthanks Eric02:24
l88land others02:24
EriC^^can you share the output of both?02:24
jhutchinsl88l: I would imagine that if it's not a problem specific to your hardware there are articles on speeding it up.02:24
l88li will02:24
EriC^^l88l: also the boot process in /var/log/syslog might shed some light02:25
l88lwhat would you suggest i grep from /var/log/syslog02:26
l88lgonna install again and share it then02:28

weedmiccheers!  what does " ." do in this command:  "nautilus ."?08:12
ograweedmic, . points to the dir you are currently in in your terminal ... so "nautilus ." will open a file manager window in that dir08:17
weedmici saw it was like dolphin - i was looking for the equivalent of the software manager like muon in kubuntu - do u know what that is?08:32
akikweedmic: maybe plasma-discover08:39
akikweedmic: or do you mean for installed packages?08:39
akikweedmic: aptitude is one but it might be only for the terminal08:41
weedmicyast software manager or muon package manager are guis that let you search for a package and tells you if it is installed, whether you want it to be blocked from updating, or whether it is available to be installed.  i shall check aptitude as that sounds familiar.08:50
ograweedmic, perhaps the people in #kubuntu know more 😉09:12

ufthird time's a charm. i have two LXC where one is fine and the other isn't. i can't apt upgrade it because of a wrong systemd version or something. i forcefully removed systemd and then installed, but it fails to install https://dpaste.org/NOhhu/raw10:35
ufthe only difference i can see between the LXCs is that one has /var/cache/man owned by root:man and the other nobody:nogroup10:36
ufand apparently i cant even change that for some reason because chown: changing ownership of '/var/cache/man': Operation not permitted10:36
ograsmells liks your password and group database is messed up in the one that has nobody:nogroup ...10:37
ogra*like10:37
ufi guess that's possible. what's the right way to fix this?10:38
ograthere is no easy way in case the files are corrupt or missing since debs create system users dynamically, that means the UID/GID is different on each system, depending on the order the packages were installed10:41
ograso you can not just copy /etc/passwd or /etc/group from another system10:42
ogra(though it would be interesting to find out how you got into that situation in the first place)10:43
ufi've no idea, this lxc has ever only ran wireguard10:44
ufdo i have no choice other than re-installing the system?10:45
ograuf, re-creaing the container you mean ...10:51
ogra*creating10:51
ufand re-configuring wireguard (:10:51
ufcomparing /etc/passwd and /etc/group between the good and bad lxc dont seem like there's any problems with them10:58
ograthen there might be something wrong with bits and pieces processing them perhaps ... some missing pam modules/libs for example11:00
ufcan't i just let apt reinstall everything it can and see how it goes? i've a snapshot of the lxc so i don't really mind risking it11:06

tomreynhi hms_rorqual19:34
hms_rorqualtomreyn sorry for interruption last time, I had any connection problem here and couldn't go back earlier. Even have to read about your mention related to zfs issues - bug 199331819:35

tomreynboth bug reports are about *encrypted* zfs only, and i assume (not sure there) they only apply to encrypted zfs on /19:42
=== MuliganGB is now known as Muligan
tomreynso if you just want 'plain' zfs, or 'plain' zfs on top of a luks layer, they don'T apply.19:43
hms_rorqualI see. Do you use ZFS in your Ubuntu ?19:44
hms_rorqualIf 'yes' haven't you being experiencing any serious issues related to it ?19:45
tomreynhms_rorqual: i do not, i know of others who use it regularly with different ubuntu releases for non system file system without issues.19:48
As4xktomreyn: zfs get keylocation: "rpool  keylocation  file:///run/keystore/rpool/system.key  local". And mount lists "/dev/mapper/keystore-rpool on /run/keystore/rpool .....". And cryptsetup status keystore-rpool sais "type:    LUKS2". So yes, quite sure Ubuntu stores the key on LUKS19:48
hms_rorqualFine tomreyn, thanks for attention and information provided :)19:49
tomreynAs4xk: interesting, thanks for sharing.19:49
As4xk22.0419:49
tomreynAs4xk: so that's just a 1 to 10 MB LUKS device or something?19:50
tomreyn(i assume "cryptsetup status keystore-rpool" might say.)19:51
As4xkIt's a 500MB zvol. Not sure how big the LUKS volume is, but I guess it's the same (approx).19:55
As4xkSo rpool has an unencrypted zvol with luks19:55
As4xkBut I don't understand why Ubuntu doesn't close it after loading zfs keys. Would have guess that ssecurity-wize that would be good to do.19:57

tomdI've been looking at a way for me to create an ubuntu install on a usb, so that when I plug it in it automatically installs. Is this possible or will there always have to be some kind of user interaction?20:11
tomdI've been using this - https://github.com/covertsh/ubuntu-autoinstall-generator with some modifications for jammy, but every time it doesn't seem to use the user-data file20:13
jhutchins tomd: It may be possible under Windows.  Linux should be sercure against that type of hijacking.20:13
tomdI'm just looking for an easy way of putting a base installation onto my hardware, which doesn't require me to plug in a keyboard or mouse20:14
tomde.g. buy pc, plug in usb, dhcp gives it an address, i provide it with a default username/password, then use ansible to configure it.20:15
tomdI may have to go down the PXE route, I just would rather do it via USB.20:16
jhutchinstomd: If the system is set up to boot first to the USB drive it could work.  If there's no OS on the system and it's set to include the USB in the boot searech path it could work.20:17
tomdjhutchins - sure , but I can't find a way of making it work, i'm wondering if others had any experience?20:18
jhutchinsI have used the latter scenario to install systems.  I've more often seen uninstalled systems try netboot.20:18
tomdOK I guess not many people using usb installation then20:20
tomreynAs4xk: no idea, maybe it's worth bringing it up in a bug report / feature request20:22
tomreyncould be just an oversight20:22
tomreynsurely the key will still need to be store din memory somewhere, probably in the kernel key store.20:23
jhutchinstomreyn: I think a lot of people use them, and I haven't seen a bios that wouldn't boot to USB for quite a while.  My experience was in the late 2000s and CDs were much more common.20:35
jhutchinsI did have CDs that would install a custom version of a Linux OS if you booted from them - but one of the above conditions had to be true.20:36

Guest934567Hello, I try to install CUDA on Ubuntu but have problem: https://pastebin.com/Y3P9cWFk22:41
=== EvilGry is now known as gry
EriC^^Guest934567: what package are you trying to install?23:00
Guest934567EriC^^ sudo apt-get -y install cuda23:00
EriC^^Guest934567: type 'apt-cache policy cuda | nc termbin.com 9999' and paste the result here23:02
oerheksrun proper updates first, sudo apt update && sudo apt dist-upgrade23:04
Guest934567EriC^^ https://termbin.com/ctcyj23:04
Guest934567oerheks if you are referring to me, yes, I am diligent with updates prior to installs.23:05
Guest934567Cuda was fine before and some update happens and it broke, so I tried to reinstall23:06
Guest934567The video programs said CUDA is not available, so that is how I knew it broke.23:07
Guest934567By video programs, I mean editing23:07
EriC^^which ubuntu are you using?23:08
EriC^^type "cat /etc/issue"23:08
Guest934567EriC^^ Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS23:09
Guest934567not lsb_release -a23:09
Guest934567?23:09
EriC^^ok type "apt-cache show cuda | nc termbin.com 9999"23:10
EriC^^same thing23:10
Guest934567https://termbin.com/08bl23:10
EriC^^and "apt-cache show cuda-12-1 | nc termbin.com 9999"23:12
Guest934567EriC^^  https://termbin.com/t2a323:13
oerheksApparently nvidia's cuda ppa does not supply the i386 versions of them?23:14
Guest934567oerheks Heck, it was not a problem before. I can purge if needed, just tell me what to purge23:15
Guest934567I thought getting rid of WINE would help23:15
Guest934567guess not23:15
oerheksreverse add archtecture i386, dpkg --remove-architecture i38623:17
oerheksmaybe remove packages first, https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/696517/cannot-remove-architecture-i38623:17
EriC^^Guest934567: what does "apt-cache policy libnvidia-compute-530 | nc termbin.com 9999" give?23:18
EriC^^!info libnvidia-compute-530 focal23:18
ubottulibnvidia-compute-530 (530.41.03-0ubuntu0.20.04.2, focal): NVIDIA libcompute package. In component restricted, is optional. Built by nvidia-graphics-drivers-530. Size 49,433 kB / 225,116 kB. (Only available for i386, amd64.)23:18
EriC^^Guest934567: it looks like the nvidia repo package expects 530.30.02 , but in 22.04 the version is now 530.41.0323:19
Guest934567EriC^^ https://termbin.com/zkmq23:19
EriC^^so there's your problem23:19
Guest934567EriC^^ What do you think is best course of action?23:20
EriC^^well, i think it's on nvidia to fix the issue, but if you need some temporary solution, see how many packages were updated in that update and roll them back til they fix it23:21
Guest934567ugh23:21
Guest934567Linus Torvalds "Nvidea, F--- you"23:22
EriC^^Guest934567: what does "grep -C10 "libnvidia-compute-530" /var/log/apt/history.log | nc termbin.com 9999" give?23:22
Guest934567EriC^^ Thanks for your help though23:22
EriC^^no problem23:22
Guest934567EriC^^ Nothing, just an empty line23:23
EriC^^odd23:24
EriC^^do you want to roll it back?23:25
Guest934567EriC^^ What am I rolling back, the distro or driver?23:25
EriC^^libnvidia-compute-53023:25
jhutchinsThe '| nc termbin 9999" trick doesn't show the user anything, al the output goes to termbin.23:25
jhutchinsI guess it should return the URL.23:26
Guest934567EriC^^ Sure, if it will work and get my video editing programs going23:26
Guest934567I am not a fan of editing on Windows23:26
Guest934567Linux is wayyyyy more stable23:27
Guest934567Except when this happens. But crashes are rare on Linux, Windows, it is par for the course23:27
EriC^^Guest934567: thinking more about it i think it would be very messy to roll it back, given so many other packages also depend on it23:32
Guest934567EriC^^ So I guess just bug nvidea, keep yelling 'F--- you!!!'23:32
EriC^^yup23:33
Guest934567Proprietary crap23:33
EriC^^i'll throw out there this messy hack though, just for the hell of it, you could change the depends line in the packages files so the other packages install thinking the old compute-530 was there23:34
Guest934567if only graphics drive can be Stallmanized for pro video23:34
EriC^^but if they dont work with the new one for some reason i guess it would bug out etc23:34
Guest934567yeah, I guess I will have to use Windows for now23:34
EriC^^probably best to wait i guess23:34
Guest934567I used AMD graphics and they are just as bad23:35
EriC^^yup not much support on linux sometimes23:37
