LOLOKAYSo, let me get this straight.. Canonical withholds security updates for packages in the 'Universe' repository and makes people subscribe to Ubuntu Pro in order to get them, and the reason given is because the community is not patching the packages. But when I check the maintainer of the package I'm interested in, I found Ubuntu MOTU Developers is05:35
LOLOKAYthe maintainer. So, how can Canonical say its withholding packages because the community is not maintaining them when Canonical through Ubuntu MOTU Developers is the maintainer?05:35
EickmeyerLOLOKAY: I'm a MOTU developer, but I cannot maintain every single package. I don't work for Canonical.05:38
LOLOKAYEickmeyer you might not work directly for Canonical, but it is still Canonical's package.05:39
EickmeyerLOLOKAY: Nope.05:40
LOLOKAYEickmeyer how is it not? Canonical own Ubuntu.05:40
EickmeyerCanonical owns the trademark for Ubuntu. Ubuntu is a community project.05:40

LOLOKAYEickmeyer I disagree, but I have come to the understanding I was suspecting. Thanks.05:41

Guest4198Hello07:14
Guest4198I'm on Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS and I'm having issues with external Bluetooth speaker. Especially on youtube, there is no sound when ads are playing, or on some of the videos. I guess I don't have bluetooth drivers for all of the sound formats, is that a thing?07:16
lotuspsychjeGuest4198: are you using gnomes internal bluetooth or blueman?07:22
Guest4198lotuspsychje default settings, internal bluetooth from Dell laptop07:23
Guest4198I found this article https://trendoceans.com/how-to-resolve-no-sound-from-bluetooth-headset-in-linux/ which mentions trying to install "pulseaudio-module-bluetooth" and "pavucontrol"07:24
Guest4198so I guess I will try to do that07:24
Guest4198When I connect to the speark, I go to settings / sounds / Output and change the output from built-in-speakers to external BL speaker07:26
Guest4198sound is working fine for a while, but on some videos / pauses / ads / it's stop working and I have to kinda reset everything07:27
lotuspsychjeGuest4198: while you doing tests with your BT device and sound, keep a journalctl -f open to see whats happening under your system hood07:28
lotuspsychjeso when you notice errors, you can share those with the volunteers here07:28
Guest4198the only errors I see is "bluetoothd[1663]: Failed to set mode: Failed (0x03)"07:29
lotuspsychjeGuest4198: what i would test, is also try blueman, just to make sure its not a connect/disconnect issue07:29
lotuspsychje!info blueman07:29
ubottublueman (2.3.5-2build1, lunar): Graphical bluetooth manager. In component universe, is optional. Built by blueman. Size 1,018 kB / 3,694 kB07:29
Guest4198Probably worth a mention, that when there is no sounds from firefox, the TEST button in sound settings is working fine and produces "front left/front right sound"07:31
lotuspsychjeGuest4198: another thing to mention is ubuntu recently made a switch from pulseaudio to pipewire, maybe there's a bottleneck there too07:32
Guest4198Looks like pavucontrol fixed all the issues07:40
lotuspsychjenice to know Guest419807:41
Guest4198it looked almost like every time I started a video with a different sound codec in firefox, the firefox forgot which sound output to use07:43
Guest4198maybe it's actually snap issue idk \o/07:43
lotuspsychjeGuest4198: if your BT sound wasnt working by default on 22.04 that might be worth a new !bug07:45
Guest4198hmm there is 122 bugs related to BT https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-bluetooth I will check if there is something familiar with what I was experiencing07:49
lotuspsychjeGuest4198: thank you, if you cant find a similar one, you can file one easy with 'ubuntu-bug linux' from your terminal07:50
lotuspsychjeor ubuntu-bug gnome-bluetooth indeed07:50
magnuslhi, I just upgraded ubuntu from version 20 to 22.04 and now my network does not work at all (I'm now on a win laptop). I've installed the linux-modules-6,2,0-26~22,04,1_amd64.deb but still no nework. anybody got advice?08:23
magnuslI have a realtek RTL8125 ethernet controller, according to lspci08:24
lotuspsychjemagnusl: could you pastebin, sudo lshw -C network please08:24
magnuslwell, can not pastebin because of no network08:24
lotuspsychjemagnusl: try the command, and tell us if you see a section driver:....08:25
magnuslthe command gives two sections, headed *-network UNCLAIMED08:25
lotuspsychjemagnusl: ok tnx, that means your driver isnt loaded there08:26
magnuslyes08:26
lotuspsychjemagnusl: what i think happened is, your realtek device doesnt like kernel 6.2 do yous till have older kernels to test in your list?08:26
lotuspsychjemagnusl: dpkg --list | grep linux-image , to see08:27
magnuslI have similar experiences from previous upgrades, but as you can see from my version (20), long time since I upgraded so memory and competence here is degraded......08:27
magnusllet me see08:27
lotuspsychjerealtek is known for being kernel itchy08:28
magnuslyeah, I have a bunch of kernels08:28
magnusllong time since installation....08:28
lotuspsychjemagnusl: ok, try to load up a previous kernel from grub as a test08:28
magnuslhow do I do that? I do not get a grub menu on boot....08:28
lotuspsychjemagnusl: hold shift at boot to enter grub, or ESC08:29
lotuspsychjemagnusl: then pick ubuntu recovery and pick a previous kernel08:29
magnuslahrg08:33
magnusli'm through to a grup terminal08:33
magnuslgrub>08:33
magnuslhow do I get from there to the menu?08:33
magnusltrown to a grub terminal, I mean08:33
lotuspsychjemagnusl: thats a root terminal from recoverymode you are08:34
magnuslok, what to do there?08:34
lotuspsychjemagnusl: https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/2059/5897/files/85eb754321-292f2ddd8c4c8157bd81.png?v=161364929308:35
magnuslyeah, how to I get there from the root recovery terminal?08:35
magnuslit just flashes past, and then I'm in this terminal08:36
lotuspsychjereboot and anter grub again08:36
EriC^^magnusl: try typing 'normal' in the grub> terminal or 'configfile /boot/grub/grub.cfg'08:37
magnuslEriC^^doesn't help, it simply boots in the normal way, no grub menu08:41
EriC^^does 'ls /boot' show 2 kernels?08:43
magnuslit shows wmlinuz-5,15,0 and wmlinuz-6.2.008:45
magnuslisn't there a way to make it halt at the grub menu?08:45
magnuslremember doing that a long time ago..... I mean in config08:45
EriC^^it's supposed to halt by holding shift08:46
magnusli get into the grub menu by holding Esc08:46
EriC^^did you try left shift?08:46
EriC^^or maybe when you hold esc and get grub> try pressing esc again maybe it shows the menu08:47
magnuslneither left nor right shift gets me into grub08:49
EriC^^ok try pressing esc once in grub>08:49
magnuslexc at the grub menu just produce a new prompt08:50
magnuslbut my keyboard is swedish - does that matter?08:50
EriC^^ah, are you able to boot with the current kernel?08:50
EriC^^nah08:50
magnuslesc should be the same, right?08:50
magnuslyes08:50
magnuslno problem booting08:50
magnuslonly problem with network08:50
EriC^^aha08:50
EriC^^ok boot and type 'sudo nano /etc/default/grub'08:51
EriC^^make it GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=menu  and GRUB_TIMEOUT=1008:52
magnusltype that in terminal when running? not grub menu?08:52
EriC^^yeah08:52
magnuslyeah, right, that rings a bell08:53
EriC^^magnusl: then type 'sudo update-grub'08:53
magnuslokay, now I'm in the grub menu :)08:57
EriC^^nice :)08:57
magnuslbut I only have Ubuntu, Advanced options, and UEFI firmware settings08:57
magnuslno kernels to choose from08:57
EriC^^go for advanced then choose an older kernel08:57
magnuslah, advancd08:57
magnuslgot it08:58
magnusli go for the 5.15 then08:58
EriC^^yeah08:58
magnuslright, now I have network08:58
magnusl2so, this is magnusl from the ubuntu desktop08:59
EriC^^cool09:00
magnusl2any advice on how I can make the RTL8125 play with the new kernel then?09:00
EriC^^no idea unfortunately09:00
magnuslthere are some r8125-dkms - packages. do you know if that is just source code or compiled modules?09:08
EriC^^try 'apt-cache show <package>'09:09
EriC^^im guessing its the modules09:09
magnusl2yeah, well, now running kernel 5.15 I do have a r8125-dkms-package installed09:10
magnusl2any idea on how I can have that when running the 6.2 kernel?09:10
pickanickAny idea why firefox could download a file while curl and wget would be "Unable to establish SSL session" ?09:11
EriC^^magnusl2: i think it's supposed to automatically install if its dkms, just guessing09:15
alkisgmagnusl2, if you run `lspci -nn`, what pciid do you see for that adapter? E.g. 1234:567809:15
EriC^^magnusl2: lsmod should list the loaded modules, maybe sudo lshw -c network can give more info09:15
pickanickOh and if apt is taking a long time to access a third party repo, and it would be faster to download it manually, how do I get the exact file it's downloading and know where to put it so apt can find and use it? I don't want to circumvent the signature checking, only the file download.09:16
EriC^^pickanick: apt-cache show <package> should show the filename09:22
magnusl2alkisg is this the number you mean? 10ec:812509:23
alkisgmagnusl2, right, since kernel 5.9 you do not need that dkms package as the driver has been mainlined, included in the upstream kernel09:24
magnusl2many the info on this page says something: https://www.realtek.com/en/component/zoo/category/network-interface-controllers-10-100-1000m-gigabit-ethernet-pci-express-software09:24
alkisgmagnusl2, so just uninstall it if you have 5.15 or 6.209:24
magnusl2alkisg yeah but I want to run 6.209:24
alkisgYes, it's there too09:24
alkisgIt's in 5.9, in 5.15, in 5.19, in 6.2, in 6.4 etc etc. In all since 5.909:25
magnusl2alkisg not following you. the network did not work when I ran kernel 6.209:25
alkisgmagnusil2, did you have the package installed? If yes, then it broke the internal module09:25
alkisgSo just uninstall the package and reboot, it should then work with 6.209:25
magnusl2ok, let me try09:26
alkisgI actually have that NIC here working fine with 6.209:26
magnusl2uninstall wich package?09:26
alkisgsudo apt purge r8125-dkms ; reboot09:27
magnusl2apt says "not installed"09:27

magnusl2yes, it is working now, when I run kernel 5.1509:34
magnusl2did not work when running kernel 6.209:34
alkisgThen something ELSE was wrong09:34
alkisgIf you wish, boot with 6.2 to troubleshoot09:34
magnusl2will do09:34
magnuslI'm here from a win laptop09:35
magnuslbooted with kernel 6.209:36
magnuslno network09:36
alkisgCan you connect to wifi?09:36
alkisgIt'll help with the troubleshooting09:36
magnuslnope09:36
magnuslno wifi, no ethernet09:36
alkisgThen go back to 5.15 and run `sudo apt update; sudo apt full-upgrade`, as the most common issue is "badly applied updates"09:36
alkisgAdditionally, after the updates, run this and tell us the output: dpkg -l | grep linux- | nc termbin.com 999909:38
magnusltype that again09:39
alkisgAh and another idea is, when you're on 6.2, to run: (sudo dmesg; sudo lspci -nn -k -iA3 Ethernet) >/root/log.txt  and then when you're back to 5.15 to pastebin that file09:40
alkisgsudo apt update; sudo apt full-upgrade09:40

alkisgdpkg -l | grep linux- | nc termbin.com 999909:40
magnusl2https://termbin.com/3vbl09:40
magnusl2the full upgrade said "finished" or "done" (I have it in Swedish)09:41
magnusl2going back to 6.2, trying that other09:41
alkisgmagnusl2, wait09:42
alkisgWhich distro/version is that?09:42
magnusl2ok09:42
magnusl2ubuntu 22.04 something09:42
alkisgIs it normal ubuntu or a derivative like linuxmint? Because it has the wrong metapackages installed09:43
magnusl2normal ubuntu09:43
magnusl2interesting09:43
magnusl2I might have had xubuntu installed and I do have kubuntu installed09:43
alkisgOK then run: sudo apt install linux-generic-hwe-22.0409:43
alkisgThen reboot into 6.2 and it should work. Then ping me to tell you a big cleanup command09:44
magnusl2ok, what is that?09:44
alkisgIt installs the 22.04 kernel instead of the 20.04 kernel09:44
magnusl2ok09:44
alkisgNow you're missing half of the 22.04 kernel modules09:44
magnusl2done, rebooting09:44
magnuslinteresting, how come I am missing the modules?09:45
magnuslguessing: wrong metapackage? :)09:45
alkisgNo idea how you managed to get kernel 6.2 while you had the 20.04 metapackage09:45
alkisgI guess you installed it manually09:45
magnusl:)09:45
magnuslnope09:45
alkisgYou can check /var/log/apt/history.log for the installation history09:46
alkisgIt goes back for years, since the first installation09:47
magnuslmany years then :)09:47
alkisgDoes it work now?09:47
magnusl2here again, on the ubuntu desktop09:48
magnusl2how do I check what I am running now? should be 6.2 but to make sure09:48
alkisguname -a09:48
magnusl2yes, it is 6.209:48
magnusl2so now it seems to work09:48
magnusl2thx!09:48
magnusl2cleanup?09:48
alkisgRun this, but do not confirm on the yes/no question. First, upload the result to pastebin:09:49
alkisgsudo apt-get purge --auto-remove -y $(dpkg -l | awk '/^rc/ { print $2 }')09:49
alkisgOuch I forgot to remove the -y :D09:50
alkisgOK it should be fine, but do paste the result to pastebin09:51
magnusl29can you repost?09:52

alkisgmagnusl29, seems fine to me, if you miss any packages later on (you shouldn't) just reinstall them09:56
magnusl29should or shouldn't? :)09:56
pickanick@EriC^^ : Thanks, then where to put the .deb file so apt can use it as though it was automatically downloaded?09:56

pickanickis there a way to "apt-file update" or "apt update'  a single repository? [Context: the command was just run but one repository failed]12:46
Yakovhow to update database so I can see relevant whereis and locate output?12:48
pickanickOr to "apt-file update" or "apt update'   only repositories not recently update?12:52
pickanickYakov: updatedb ?12:53
pickanickYakov: see man updatedb  # Note: run as root, or "sudo updatedb"12:54
jhutchinspickanick: The only way apt can tell if a repository is up-to-date is to ask if there's a new file.  It doesn't take it long to check, so it doesn't hurt anything to just run update and check all of the repos.14:11

Guest30hello to all, I am new to ubuntu, I use it very little.... before installing it on windows through the SMART functions of HD TUNE and Disk Digger I was getting an error of this kind14:56
Guest30https://images.app.goo.gl/284geqYZftP2kmQr914:56
Guest30This is an image taken from the internet, precise that to me only gave the error to ID 05 i.e. the fields referred precisely 44814:56
Guest30in the application disks now that I am from ubuntu, it signals the same values but does not highlight it in yellow or however as error14:56
Guest30https://drive.google.com/file/d/1uAD0aD6LRL8LV5yBzeAJ0LpDgl7gKbXU/view?usp=sharing14:56
Guest30this is the current screen from the ubuntu disk app 22.04.3 LTS14:56
Guest30whent i can chat again?14:59
Guest30hi, i don't know until where you read my question15:00
lotuspsychjeuse a !paste for large texts next time Guest3015:00
leftyfbGuest30: if you are getting hard drive errors in Windows and Ubuntu, replace the hard drive15:00
Guest30leftyfb technician told me i can try with a low level format to repair the hard disk15:12
Guest30maybe you didn't read the other part of my question15:13
leftyfbGuest30: replace your hard drive and don't go back to that "technician"15:13
Guest30however the app "Disk" in ubuntu told me that Disk is OK15:13
lotuspsychjeand rescue data as fast as you can to another media Guest3015:13
leftyfbGuest30: you can keep using the drive if you don't care about the data on it15:14
Guest30it says: "The latest automatic test was successfully completed"15:14
leftyfbGuest30: good luck15:14
Guest30"Unpaid threshold"15:14
Guest30"The disk is OK, 448 bad sectors"15:15
Guest30lotuspsychje data, files, photos and documents are all already saved on an external hard disk15:17
lotuspsychjegood good15:17
Guest30therefore, can't fix with a low-level formatting?15:18
leftyfbGuest30: low level formatting hasn't been a thing in 20 years. And no, no amount of formatting will fix a bad hard drive15:19
lotuspsychjeGuest30: bad sectors cant be repaired, just stick to the advice leftyfb gave you above15:19
Guest30what does it means: "low level formatting hasn't been a thing in 20 years"?15:20
Guest30leftyfb Is "Reallocated Sectors" a physical error of the disk or a logical error or otherwise NOT physical? I don't know how it's more correct to say15:22
leftyfbGuest30: replace the hard drive.15:23
leftyfbGuest30: real low level formatting can't be done on modern ATA drives15:23
Guest30lotuspsychje it isn't bad sectors but "Reallocated sectors"15:24
leftyfbsome people consider writing zero's to the drive to be low level formatting, but it's really not. Regardless, it will not help you either way15:24
leftyfbGuest30: replace the drive. If you want more details about hard drive specifics, feel free to /join #hardware and ask there15:24
Guest30leftyfb quindi azzeramento del disco con tutti zeri e formattazione a basso livello del disco sono due cose differenti? I often read on several support pages that they are the same thing15:28
Guest30excuse, i pasted wrong language15:28
leftyfbGuest30: yes, we are in agreement15:28
NixkernalGuest30: Make daiy backups and check the reallocated sectors everyday, if it stays that way ok, but if they go up exchange the harddrive.15:29
Guest30leftyfb so disc reset with all zeros and low-level formatting are two different things? i often read on serveral support web pages that they are the same thing15:29
leftyfbGuest30: they are 2 different things15:30
Guest30leftyfb which are the differences between them=15:30
Guest30?15:31
leftyfbGuest30: you cannot run a proper low level format on modern ATA hard drives. I'm pretty sure you can't even run them on the older IDE drives. It was a thing back in the day on MFM drives15:31
leftyfbGuest30: we are off topic here. Feel free to read up on google or here: https://www.minitool.com/partition-disk/high-level-format-vs-low-level.html  or again, feel free to discuss further with those in the #hardware channel15:31
NixkernalYou cant reset a Disk, the HD-Firmware reallocated defect sectors from a reserve pool15:31
Guest30Nixkernal ok15:32
Guest30leftyfb ok, i just didn't think "Reallocated sectors" is an error of hardware15:33
leftyfbGuest30: replace the drive15:34
NixkernalIt's just 12 sectors just check everyday and make incremental backups.15:34
leftyfbGuest30: 44815:35
NixkernalOr use ZFS ;)15:35
NixkernalOh i watched the wrong picture...448 YES replace the DISK!15:36
Guest30 Nixkernal no this link https://images.app.goo.gl/284geqYZftP2kmQr9 is from internet just for example, now i'm on ubuntu and the app "Disk" doesn't highlight it as an error15:36
Guest30Nixkernal what is ZFS?15:36
lotuspsychjeNixkernal Guest30 lets keep this support channel free for new ubuntu questions15:37
Guest30Nixkernal ok are they really too many?15:37
NixkernalA filesystem who can detect bitrot from (for example damaged sectors)15:37
lotuspsychjeyou can use the offtopic or discuss channel if you like15:37
lotuspsychje!discuss15:37
ubottuWant to talk about Ubuntu, but don't have a support question? /join #ubuntu-discuss for non-support Ubuntu discussion, or try #ubuntu-offtopic for general chat. Thanks!15:37
NixkernalJup too much exchange15:38
pickanickjhutchins : Yes that makes sense in most cases, but apt-file update downloads 164MB of data for all but one repo. To get one difficult repo I have to use expensive data, and I'd rather not download 164MB every time unnecessarily.15:45
Guest30Nixkernal i send you a private message15:53
Guest30just last question about my problem, why Disk doens't highlight it as a risk, an error and tell that'all OK?15:55
Guest30leftyfb15:56
Guest30lotuspsychje15:56
lotuspsychjeGuest30: are you talking about disk-tools in gnome?15:57
Guest30instead SMART of HD TUNE and Disk digger on Windows 10 highlight it as an error, a risk15:57
leftyfbGuest30: it has an arbitrary threshold that you haven’t met yet. If you care about the data and not having to rebuild at an in opportune time, replace the drive15:57
Guest30Gnome Disks maybe is the entire name of the app15:57
Guest30I read just Disks as name of application15:57

jhutchinspickanick: I just did a test: I ran update on a system with five repositories configured, then immediately ran it again.  The second run did not download anything.16:22
jhutchinspickanick: As I tried to say earlier, apt will not download the data from a repo unless there are new packages listed.16:23
jhutchinspickanick: It does not download the whole repo catalog every time, just diff files.16:23
jhutchinspickanick: I suppose you could disable all of the other repos, but that would probably mean downloading the whole catalog, as I believe apt "cleans up" any repos that are no longer active.16:37
eelstrebor_i hope i'm not ot here but i was wondering if anyone can help me to stream azteca with firefox. all i get is a blank screen and no audio. am i missing a plugin or codec? Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS. firefox 116.0.317:18
jhutchinseelstrebor_: You seem to be assuming that someone else knows what "azteca" is in this context.  URL?17:39

eelstrebor_it's probably a firefox issue but not many people over at #mozilla17:44
jhutchinseelstrebor_: Pretty easy to drop chrome or chromium on your system and try it.17:45
jhutchinseelstrebor_: A problem with the VPN service is more likely; the site may block VPN access for the very reason you're using it.17:45
eelstrebor_i guess i can do that for a test. i believe ther are other browsers for linux also17:46
EickmeyerStill not an Ubuntu issue.17:46

webchat13hi. i'm running an intel TigerLake-LP GT2 [Iris Xe Graphics] (rev 01) on Ubuntu 22.04.2. my computer can't detect my external monitor (dell ultrasharp). my other computers have no trouble. help?18:35
Eickmeyerwebchat13: 22.04.3 is out, make sure everything is upgraded and that you're on the latest kernel.18:48
webchat13thanks Eickmeyer18:54
oerheksi found this, about TigerLake-LP GT2 [Iris Xe Graphics] :  disabled secure boot, and voila, both monitors working just fine18:55
oerhekshttps://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?t=38050718:56
oerheksother fix; OEM kernel, i guess you better try HWE then .. https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=246579718:56
Eickmeyeroerheks: if that's the case than apt update && apt upgrade should 'just work'.18:58
oerheksi guess so, if hwe is enabled?18:59
EickmeyerHWE has been enabled by default in all LTS versions of Ubuntu starting with 20.04.18:59
oerheksyes, from 22.04.118:59
