[00:10] <src> `$ lsb_release -a` I'm on ubuntu 23.04 but `$ sudo do-release-upgrade`-> no new release found (update-manager-core is up to date)
[00:10] <src> is there not yet an upgrade path or am I doing something wrong here?
[00:12] <Eickmeyer> src: upgrades to 23.10 are not available immediately after release, they usually take a day to a week, depending on upgrade issues to be sorted. If you want, you can use `update-manager -d` at your own risk.
[00:14] <src> Eickmeyer: 'upgrade to the development release'
[00:14] <src> would that even mean I'd be on 23.10 or on some ever changing current branch or something
[00:14] <src> anyways I guess I'll wait, fuck, should have looked up before taking a long backup
[00:14] <Eickmeyer> src: I said what I said.
[00:14] <Eickmeyer> !language | src
[00:15] <Eickmeyer> There's no development release right now, the new development branch hasn't opened yet.
[00:16] <Eickmeyer> 23.04 wouldn't skip ahead anyhow.
[00:16] <EriC^^> src: you'd be on 23.10
[00:16] <src> I'll wait then, I'll do an incremental backup when it's available, shouldn't need to run through the whole thing again
[00:17] <src> anyways thanks
[00:17] <EriC^^> src: might be worth seeing what's in 'cat /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades'
[00:17] <EriC^^> for prompt=
[00:17] <EriC^^> in case it's set to lts by mistake or something
[00:18] <src> EriC^^: set to normal
[00:18] <Eickmeyer> EriC^^: If they're on 23.04 I highly doubt it would be set to lts as 1) it can't be set to that by default, and 2) it couldn't have been upgraded to 23.04.
[00:18] <src> to be fair he said "might be worth seeing"
[00:19] <EriC^^> Eickmeyer: i know, yes ^
[00:19] <Eickmeyer> src: Right, but illogical.
[00:19] <src> you never know what people do to their systems lol
[00:19] <EriC^^> i literally said 'by mistake'
[00:20] <EriC^^> Eickmeyer: there's nothing illogical about it, but your pedantic majesty wins \o/ feel good now
[00:20] <Eickmeyer> EriC^^: I just don't like it when I'm trying to help someone and someone takes over, it's not helpful and gets under my skin, that's all.
[00:21] <EriC^^> Eickmeyer: it looked like you were done helping, i merely pointed out the off chance of prompt not being set, might be worth seeing is all
[00:21] <src> you guys need to chillax
[00:24] <Eickmeyer> To be fair, I'm probably a little on-edge, had an incident yesterday where I was harassed by a user. Sorry if it comes out sideways.
[00:42] <TheWebFox> Eickmeye_r, if you mean me, I'm sorry if I caused you distress a few days ago ...
[01:10] <Eickmeyer> TheWebFox: No, wasn't you. :)
[01:40] <MissingMinotaur> If the person asking about /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades was asking me, 'Prompt=normal'

[03:46] <RGN> hmm
[03:47] <kubuntuboi> thats what i said when i switched from arch, the aur really held my hand 😥
[03:50] <RGN> ?
[03:53] <kubuntuboi> i mean it was a lot easier since everything was just in it lol
[04:02] <PeGaSuS> probably rust-wl-clipboard-rs?
[04:04] <PeGaSuS> I mean, libruw
[04:04] <PeGaSuS> librust*
[04:05] <kubuntuboi> oh yeah i tried that appearantly thats just the source, what i primarly need is just wl-copyhttps://github.com/YaLTeR/wl-clipboard-rs/tree/master/wl-clipboard-rs-tools/src/bin
[04:06] <matsaman> the source, from which you can build it
[04:11] <kubuntuboi> well apparently i got it to build, git clone that repo, cargo build and the executable is in ~/wl-clipboard-rs/target/debug lol appreciate yall

[12:24] <Louiex1322> Hello all, I can't install Ubuntu, can anyone help?
[12:25] <jeremy31> Louiex1322: Why can't you install?
[12:25] <Louiex1322> I don't know
[12:26] <Louiex1322> Therefore, I ask you for help
[12:27] <lotuspsychje> !details | Louiex1322
[12:28] <Louiex1322> I'm currently trying to install Ubuntu 23.04 next to my Windows 10 installation.
[12:28] <Louiex1322> I am ready to provide what you ask
[12:29] <lotuspsychje> !dualboot | Louiex1322 start here
[12:30] <lotuspsychje> !uefi | Louiex1322 see also
[12:30] <Louiex1322> При установке выдаёт сбой и установка не продолжается
[12:30] <Louiex1322> The installation fails and the installation does not continue.
[12:32] <lotuspsychje> Louiex1322: try to catch the error you are getting and copy into a !paste so the volunteers can try to debug your issue
[12:32] <lotuspsychje> !paste
[12:33] <Louiex1322> https://dpaste.com/8N8ZFYBRF
[12:34] <Louiex1322> I can only provide this
[12:46] <Louiex1322> Is there something about my problem?
[12:50] <con> Oct 15 18:10:37 ubuntu subiquity_log.3286[7322]: rsync: [sender] read errors mapping "/tmp/tmpogs2pk9b/mount/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcamel-1.2.so.64.0.0": Input/output error (5)
[12:50] <jeremy31> Louiex1322: I would download Ubuntu 22.04 and see if that installs
[12:50] <con> That seems to be the origin of the failure, which implies that some storage media involved is faulty.
[12:51] <Louiex1322> con: How to check
[12:56] <con> Best way I can think of is to look at the Windows Event Log for events that would indicate issues accessing the disk.
[12:56] <con> Since you already have Windows installed.
[12:57] <Louiex1322> okay
[13:15] <tomreyn> in case they'll return: these look like *read* errors from the *installation media*, so this may be bad (not the target media). was the checksum verification at boot skipped? did they verify the downloaded iso checksum?
[13:23] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[13:42] <pickanick> On shutdown: "A stop job is ?waiting? for session 3 of user ..."  Does session 3 mean a terminal emulator like Konsole in graphical session? Or virtual terminals (which are no longer accessible)
[14:07] <ice9> I'm compiling an app that requires pygtk-2.0 but this package doesn't exist, what should I do?
[14:15] <samba35> i am not able to boot system while boot it say libzstd.so pakage not found went into initramfs prompt where i cant find ssd
[14:16] <samba35> how to repair it or reinstall package ?
[14:45] <cbreak> samba35: you could boot to a USB install medium
[14:46] <cbreak> and from there, chroot into your normal boot environment, and reinstall it
[14:46] <cbreak> any idea why it's not found though?
[14:47] <samba35> yes i am able to boot with usb but how do i fix /reinstall package
[14:49] <samba35> how do i run chroot ?
[14:54] <JoeBk> samba35, type 'man chroot'
[14:54] <samba35> :)
[14:56] <ravage> samba35: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveryMode
[14:57] <ravage> or https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCdRecovery if that does not boot anymore
[15:05] <EriC^^> samba35: https://pchelp.youtubextras.com/topics/how-to-setup-a-chroot
[15:06] <EriC^^> samba35: if you're booted in the live usb then you want to follow from the very last section, "mount binding .."
[15:11] <paul424> Hello, hello how do I downgrade to particular kernel version of 5.18 ?
[15:16] <con> paul424: Any particular reason?
[15:16] <paul424> https://github.com/MeowIce/nvidia-legacy
[15:17] <paul424> 390.151 (5.18+) and the card 525M nvidia
[15:17] <paul424> which needs this
[15:17] <paul424> but the site says it would work with 5.15 as well ....
[15:19] <paul424> " install linux-generic " ???
[15:19] <ravage> what is the problem with the nvidia-driver-390 package?
[15:20] <paul424> it's obsolate no more upgraded for years
[15:20] <paul424> so someone smart is preparing the binaries himself
[15:20] <ravage> the repo says it updates support for kernel versions
[15:21] <ravage> there are no updates to the driver itself
[15:21] <ravage> it is proprietary code
[15:21] <paul424> what ? O.O ?
[15:21] <paul424> look here https://github.com/MeowIce/nvidia-legacy/tree/390.151
[15:22] <ravage> yes thats exactly what i said
[15:22] <ravage> it patches support for kernel versions
[15:22] <paul424> yes
[15:23] <ravage> NOT the features of the driver at all
[15:23] <paul424> NOT
[15:23] <ravage> actually the 390 driver in the repos is newer. nvidia-driver-390/jammy-updates,jammy-security 390.157-0ubuntu0.22.04.2 amd64
[15:26] <leftyfb> paul424: so you want to downgrade your kernel to one that is EOL and unsupported, which will most certainly introduce security and stability risks because you want to use an EOL an unsupported driver developed by some dude all because because you think the incremented number in said project will somehow improved your currently non-broken system?
[15:26] <paul424> well I have tried his patch on several occasions ( other laptops ) and I am fine with it
[15:27] <paul424> becuse IT Seems I have no other choice for nvidia binary drivers on Ubuntu
[15:28] <leftyfb> paul424: 390 is a perfectly fine choice
[15:28] <paul424> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/jammy/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-390 this ?
[15:28] <leftyfb> paul424: what release of ubuntu are you running?
[15:29] <paul424> Ubutnu 22.04 LTS
[15:30] <leftyfb> paul424: sudo apt install nvidia-driver-390
[15:30] <paul424> Is it so simple ? will try it now
[15:31]  * ravage sighs
[15:38] <paul424> >>The Linux 390.* legacy driver series is the last to support GF1xx ("Fermi") GPUs. Support for new Linux kernels and X servers, as well as fixes for critical bugs, will be included in 390.* legacy releases through the end of 2022.
[15:38] <paul424>  <<
[15:49] <paul424> leftyfb, ravage uhhh my castle of bricks is falling because of the script I have used ( the MeowICE one ) -- that is the nvidia driver doesn't start up :( no errors in /var/log/Xorg.0.log How do I reinstall the kernel 6.2 afresh  ?
[15:49] <paul424> and it's dependencies ?
[15:50] <leftyfb> paul424: sudo apt install --reinstall linux-image-generic-hwe-22.04 linux-headers-generic-hwe-22.04
[15:50] <paul424> also I should mention that it is the dual graphic card laptop model
[15:50] <paul424> maybe that it is causing so much trouble -- the INspiron N7110
[15:51] <leftyfb> paul424: that 3rd party script is more than likely causing your issues
[15:51] <paul424> yeah I see that 's why I am reinstalling kernel
[15:51] <paul424> thahknns
[16:12] <paul424> well it almost works , but a low resolution cannot be changed with nvidia-settings
[16:12] <paul424> it has no such label ....
[16:12] <paul424> what to do ?>
[16:21] <John_D> do people get flicker of app center window?
[16:26] <Your_Dog> no
[16:28] <John_D> do you use xorg or wayland?
[16:35] <Your_Dog> wayland
[16:35] <paul424> John_D,  ????
[16:35] <paul424> I do use Xorg
[16:36] <John_D> oh ok. when I was trying ubuntu 23.10 live it got horrible flicker of the app center window. even on youtube video saw same behavior. so been wondering about this issue
[16:37] <John_D> thought maybe this issue is related to flutter based applications
[17:40] <ice9> "netfilter-persistent save" doesn't save rules on Ubuntu 23.10, any idea?
[18:14] <jonny6782232> Hello, does anyone know how I can set a port for the DNS server entry in the nmtui (network manager)?
[18:15] <leftyfb> jonny6782232: a port?
[18:19] <jonny6782232> @leftyfb yes
[18:19] <jonny6782232> i want to set a dns entry like 127.0.0.1:2222
[18:21] <leftyfb> jonny6782232: why not disable systemd-resolve and run your 2222 dns server on 53?
[18:30] <Kad1> Hey all. I'm trying to get Ubuntu to simultaneously output the same audio to 2 HDMI outputs. I can mirror the display with 2 clicks, but getting audio working seems to require a first-born sacrifice. I've tried paprefs, but it seems to only output to one of them. `pactl list short sinks` gives me the stereo out + HDMI out, always the same
[18:30] <Kad1> 0000_00_1f.3 regardless of which HDMI out I choose in Settings. What am I doing wrong?
[18:31] <Kad1> (22.04.3 LTS, just installed on an Intel NUC machine)
[18:57] <a2tv1> yo
[18:59] <a2tv1> anyone
[19:01] <stenno> if you have a question, you should just ask it
[19:26] <jpmh> we had a program that created a HUGE number of files, by accident.  We have removed the files but it seems that the index/directory is still in trouble and an ls takes forever.  This is an ext4 file system.  Is there some way to clean up this mess?
[19:26] <dob1> hi, firefox bugs have to be reported via bugzilla ?
[19:26] <ravage> dob1: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/file-bug-report-or-feature-request-mozilla
[19:27] <coz_> try brave browser nightly
[19:30] <catphish> i've just downloaded "Ubuntu Base 23.04", i tried to boot it, but it doesn't seem to have an init. is is called something else, or am i misssing steps required to turn base into a working system?
[19:30] <jpmh> catphish: systemd is what is now used
[19:31] <catphish> jmcgnh: i assumed it was, any idea where that is?
[19:32] <John_D> catphish what are you trying to accomplish?
[19:34] <catphish> John_D: i have an arm64 router with a functional kernel but no userspace yet, i want a copy of ubuntu arm64 userspace that i can extract onto the device and boot
[19:35] <John_D> oh. sounds like rocket science to me : D
[19:35] <catphish> i tried to install ubuntu-base-23.04-base-arm64.tar.gz but it doesn't seem to have an init binary
[19:35] <John_D> hm
[19:35] <catphish> it's been a slog getting tht thing to boot, and i'm nearly there, kernel boots, just need an actual OS on top now
[19:35] <catphish> *the thing
[19:36] <John_D> you are on your own lol
[19:36] <John_D> this support channel doesn't seem to be helpful. people just keep silent in here
[19:36] <catphish> will get even less help if i don't ask :)
[19:37] <John_D> true that. you've tried
[19:38] <John_D> maybe askubuntu will be more of a help?
[19:38] <ice9> "netfilter-persistent save" doesn't save rules, any idea?
[19:43] <dob1> I don't like bugzilla it doesn't hide your email address
[19:43] <dob1> it's a privacy issue
[19:44] <ravage> !ot | dob1
[19:44] <dob1> it's not OT if I have to use this bad tool to fill a bug report for a software installed on ubuntu
[19:44] <ravage> it is
[19:45] <ice9> there are so many "DENIED" log in dmesg from apparmor from many apps like nautilus, firefox and others; shouldn't that break their functionality?
[20:01] <catphish> i think i've answered my own question - using this mechod i can install arm64 to a directory on my x86 machine https://digriz.org.uk/tutorials/foreign-debootstrap
[20:33] <Kadigan> In case anyone had any ideas, I was the guy with the "send audio to both HDMI outputs at the same time" issue.
[20:34] <Kadigan> For now I've settled for the "switch via Settings", but that's not a great solution.
[20:47] <kubuntuboi> so i was having a bug with screen flickering on certain programs so i wanted to try the latest mesa, installed https://launchpad.net/~oibaf/+archive/ubuntu/graphics-drivers but that didn't fix it so i wanted to revert the changes, using sudo ppa-purge ppa:oibaf/graphics-drivers and updating, vainfo still shows i'm using it

[21:57] <toddc> bedde25: look at https://askubuntu.com/questions/1091320/getting-webcam-to-work-on-dell-latitude-5290-2-in-1  also see https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000129819/a-guide-to-webcams-on-dell-notebook-and-desktop-pcs-with-ubuntu-operating-systems
[21:58] <shankara> Thanks
[22:00] <toddc> bedde25: the first link ( a bit old) but dell says there are no drivers for linux on that camera  but both have guide to get more info that might help us
[22:01] <toddc> rare for a camera not to work on ubuntu but there are a few
[22:05] <bedde25> can i give you more info?
[22:05] <bedde25> maybe you need some command to identify my cam?
[22:06] <toddc> !paste | bedde25
[22:07] <bedde25> what command do you need?  "lsusb" ?
[22:07] <toddc> that would be a good start

[22:15] <bedde25> something wrong i cannot see my webcam into this devices... or am i missing something?
[22:16] <toddc> bedde25: I did not see it in the list hang around a bit in case some with more skills has a better Idea
[22:16] <bedde25> i think my webcam is not usb
[22:16] <bedde25> so i do not see the device there for this reason
[22:16] <toddc> bedde25: also check for a hardware switch or Fn+ to turn on the camera
[22:17] <bedde25> the enable is in the bios and i already enabled it
[22:17] <toddc> some have mutible on of switches
[22:20] <bedde25> i do not understand how to get more info
[22:20] <bedde25> i do not understand how to get more info
[22:21] <bedde25> i have no switch, my keyboard is detacheble one
[22:29] <bedde25> ill try libcamera
[22:29] <bedde25> seems to be the solution

[22:42] <peenk> anyone able to help a noob install a tar.gz?
[22:42] <ravage> a tar.gz is a compressed archive
[22:42] <ravage> you unpack it. it is not an installer
[22:43] <leftyfb> peenk: what is the name of the program you are trying to install?
[22:43] <peenk> i had to move my desktop computer to the laundry room where the ethernet and modem were because ubuntu didn't pickup my wifi dongle on install
[22:44] <peenk> so i redid the install completely with ethernet and made sure to install all 3rd party and drivers. still not working.
[22:45] <peenk> this is the link to my wifi dongle

[22:45] <ravage> the link is broken

[22:46] <ravage> looks like this is the driver you need
[22:46] <jeremy31> peenk: If it is USB post URL from terminal for> lsusb|nc termbin.com 9999
[22:47] <ravage> heh
[22:47] <peenk> im going to try that ravage sent
[22:47] <ravage> if not ask jeremy31
[22:47] <ravage> it is his post :)
[22:47] <jeremy31> 4 year old post
[22:47] <ravage> try his command
[22:48] <ravage> maybe there is an up to date solution
[22:48] <leftyfb> looks like the rtl8812au-dkms package might work as well
[22:48] <leftyfb> sudo apt install rtl8812au-dkms
[22:49] <jeremy31> leftyfb: The last I knew was that dkms was broken on that since 2016
[22:50] <leftyfb> yep, looks like the version for the package hasn't changed since
[23:00] <peenk2> hey guys im on the ubuntu machine now, i tried ravage and lefty, still nothing right now
[23:01] <peenk2> i have  the tar gz but i haven't a clue on how to actually get it installed.
[23:01] <peenk2> i could be overlooking something.

[23:09] <peenk2> ok running it now
[23:09] <peenk2> thanks for the help btw
[23:10] <peenk2> https://dpaste.com/FBMTZVEPY
[23:10] <jeremy31> Des Moines, IA?
[23:10] <peenk2> yes
[23:11] <jeremy31> Not far from some relatives of mine in Calhoun County
[23:11] <peenk2> a little nw from where im at
[23:12] <jeremy31> peenk2: Have fun
[23:13] <devslash> I updated from Ubuntu 23.04 to 23.10 and it worked fine. I then installed an update and it removed my grub entries and now boots to a grub prompt
[23:13] <peenk2> still not seeing my wireless connection
[23:13] <peenk2> :(
[23:13] <devslash> I can boot from grub but it goes to an initramfs prompt
[23:13] <jeremy31> peenk2: what result from terminal for> mokutil --sb
[23:14] <devslash> with an error "No root device specified. Boot arguments must include a root= parameter". I did set root=(hd1,gpt2) at the grub prompt so this is not correct
[23:14] <Umeaboy> devslash: Can you ssh into your machine?
[23:15] <peenk2> not sure how to find that out jeremy31
[23:15] <devslash> no
[23:15] <devslash> it wont boot
[23:15] <jeremy31> peenk2: open terminal with ctrl + alt + t, then paste the command in
[23:17] <Umeaboy> Run a live Ubuntu system using the iso and see if you could run sudo update-grub2 && sudo grub-install /dev/sda if sda is the prefered for grub.
[23:17] <Umeaboy> Otherwise then just reinstall grub.
[23:17] <peenk2> ya just says EFI not supported
[23:19] <Umeaboy> I don't know if Ubuntu have it, but in Mageia we have a program called fwupdate. I think that looks for updates of each firmware.....
[23:20] <Umeaboy> I could be wrong though.
[23:20] <jeremy31> peenk2: Did you reboot?
[23:20] <peenk2> yupp
[23:20] <peenk2> lemme reboot again
[23:20] <peenk2> how can i disable secure boot?
[23:20] <jeremy31> peenk2: try my commands at https://gist.github.com/jeremyb31/38db945423ccec718802d0a56ee0f958
[23:20] <peenk2> if that is what is causing my issues
[23:21] <jeremy31> peenk2: Secure Boot doesn't work without UEFI
[23:21] <Umeaboy> https://itsfoss.com/update-firmware-ubuntu/
[23:22] <devslash> any ideas
[23:22] <peenk2> do i want to enable it or disable it
[23:22] <peenk2> jeremy31
[23:22] <peenk2> i can do it from BIOS now
[23:22] <Umeaboy> devslash: Boot the iso and choose (Try before installing) option.
[23:23] <jeremy31> peenk2: You don't have to worry about Secure Boot
[23:23] <Umeaboy> Then try do the changes from inside that system.
[23:23] <peenk2> ill reboot
[23:23] <devslash> ok thanks
[23:24] <devslash> basically id need to mount my linux partition, do chroot on it and grub-install right ?
[23:26] <peenk2> back
[23:26] <peenk2> i ran those codes again, it said it was installed
[23:26] <devslash> Umeaboy grub-install isnt working
[23:26] <devslash> it says cannot find a boot device for /boot/grub
[23:27] <Umeaboy> devslash: What does your fstab look like? Pastebin it.
[23:28] <devslash> my network connection isnt working
[23:28] <devslash> im going to have to type it all out
[23:28] <Umeaboy> devslash: Is grub2-common installed?
[23:29] <jeremy31> peenk2: run the 2 commands at https://gist.github.com/jeremyb31/a2bee9856d8c13f42f1835bc31bf9480 in terminal and post the termbin URL after the second command is done
[23:29] <devslash> no
[23:30] <Umeaboy> That is the package holding the grub-install command.
[23:30] <devslash> i dont have anything that starts with grub2
[23:30] <peenk2> https://termbin.com/ij6d
[23:30] <devslash> i have grub-instal
[23:31] <devslash> when i do grub-install /dev/sdb2 now i get an error that filesystem ex2 doesnt support embedding and says error: wont proceed without blocklists
[23:32] <Umeaboy> Is sb2 where Ubuntu usually installs the bootloader? It's been a while since.......
[23:32] <devslash> where sdb2 is my linux partition
[23:32] <devslash> i think so
[23:32] <devslash> i have an efi partition on sdb2
[23:32] <devslash> i have an efi partition on sdb1
[23:33] <Umeaboy> Leave out the 2. Try that.
[23:33] <devslash> same issue
[23:33] <Umeaboy> Wow!
[23:33] <devslash> says it will not proceed without blocklists
[23:34] <Umeaboy> What happens if you type grub-install /dev/sda ?
[23:34] <peenk2> jeremy31 would it be fruitful to switch to a live distro like fedora? (if we can't get it to work)
[23:35] <devslash> by the way before doung chroot, i bound /dev , /sys and /proc to the location where i mounted my linux partition
[23:35] <Umeaboy> peenk2: Try Arch. :)
[23:35] <Eickmeyer> Umeaboy: None of that here.
[23:35] <devslash> same error with /dev/sda
[23:35] <Umeaboy> Eickmeyer: OK. Sorry.
[23:36] <Umeaboy> devslash: Have any of the previous Ubuntu versions worked before?
[23:37] <devslash> yes
[23:37] <devslash> up to 23.10
[23:37] <jeremy31> peenk2: I don't think Fedora would help
[23:37] <devslash> after i instlaled an update in 23.10 it did all of this
[23:37] <peenk2> anything i can do at this point jeremy31
[23:37] <peenk2> try a new wifi adapater
[23:37] <Eickmeyer> peenk2: Was this an upgrade to 23.10?
[23:38] <peenk2> @eick no, fresh LTS install and wifi dongle not working after various attempts
[23:38] <Eickmeyer> Oh, weird.
[23:38] <peenk2> usually ubuntu is seemless.
[23:38] <peenk2> that is why i went with it.
[23:38] <jeremy31> peenk2: post URL from terminal for> dkms status|nc termbin.com 9999
[23:39] <Eickmeyer> I was just asking as upgrades aren't supported yet, peenk2. :)
[23:39] <peenk2> https://termbin.com/ntci
[23:39] <peenk2> WARNING!
[23:39] <Umeaboy> devslash: If I were you I'd stick to 22.04.3.........at least until the issue is fixed.
[23:40] <Eickmeyer> devslash: Was yours an upgrade to 23.10?
[23:40] <devslash> thats not the issue here
[23:40] <devslash> I was on 23.04
[23:41] <devslash> I upgraded to 23.10. All was fine at first
[23:41] <devslash> I did the regular system updates then it rebooted and this happened
[23:41] <Eickmeyer> devslash: This is precisely why 23.10 upgrades are "at your own risk" right now. that "-d" flag overrides it. Upgrades aren't ready yet, because things like what you're experiencing can go wrong.
[23:42] <Eickmeyer> devslash: That said, what you have gotten yourself into is an unsupportable situation.
[23:42] <devslash> that doesn't really help me right now
[23:42] <Eickmeyer> devslash: Nor is it anybody's responsibility to help you.
[23:42] <devslash> yea Ubuntu isnt as stable as it used to be
[23:43] <Eickmeyer> devslash: But the upgrade wasn't ready, but you decided to do this against recommendation.
[23:43] <devslash> why wasnt it officially released ?
[23:43] <Eickmeyer> It's officially released for clean installs, not for upgrades yet.
[23:43] <jeremy31> peenk2: in terminal> sudo apt remove rtl8812au-dkms
[23:43] <Eickmeyer> Otherwise it would've been offered, devslash .
[23:44] <jeremy31> peenk2: sudo dkms uninstall 8812au/4.2.3 --all
[23:44] <Umeaboy> I hate to say this but Eickmeyer has a point.
[23:45] <peenk2> jeremy31 alright, did both of those commands
[23:45] <devslash> so im basically SOL?
[23:45] <Umeaboy> SOL?
[23:46] <jeremy31> peenk2: Now run the commands at https://gist.github.com/jeremyb31/38db945423ccec718802d0a56ee0f958 and reboot
[23:46] <Umeaboy> What's that an abbreviation of?
[23:46] <devslash> yea. Sh!t outta luck
[23:46] <Umeaboy> OK.
[23:46] <Umeaboy> devslash: You could ask in #linux
[23:47] <Eickmeyer> !language | devslash
[23:48] <peenk2> Error! DKMS tree already contains: 8812au-4.2.3
[23:48] <peenk2> i just did, ill reboot again
[23:50] <peenk2> back
[23:51] <peenk2> jeremy31 https://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-2440741.html maybe this
[23:54] <leftyfb> devslash: which one of your filesystems is ext2?
[23:55] <jeremy31> peenk2: That version isn't right for the commands I gave,
[23:57] <jeremy31> peenk2: Can you post this on ubuntuforums.org and I or chili555 can help you there, it is time for me to grab something to eat and then go to bed
[23:57] <peenk2> ok sounds good thanks for the help
[23:58] <peenk2> im going to try fedora apparently it's an issue with my wifi dongle and ubuntu
[23:58] <peenk2> i dont think it's something that is solveable right now with this kernal
