| cahoots | WaV, where are you in my time of need | 00:03 |
|---|---|---|
| sem | cahoots: were you able to boot up in safe graphics mode | 00:49 |
| cahoots | sem, i can boot to a console if that's what you mean | 00:55 |
| sem | No there's a way to boot into a Fail-Safe graphics driver | 00:56 |
| sem | It will let you use the GUI tools at least somewhat | 00:56 |
| sem | https://askubuntu.com/questions/901326/how-to-start-a-fail-safe-graphics-session-with-mouse-web-browser#901327 | 00:57 |
| sem | Hopefully that will let you sort out the drivers a bit easier | 00:58 |
| cahoots | sem, what troubleshooting tips do you recommend at that point | 00:58 |
| cahoots | because i tried hitting esc and shift at startup but neither worked. but i'm quite comfortable with the terminal | 00:58 |
| sem | If I were you, I would first get a ububtu live USB and see if it correctly auto detects the right drivers and works | 00:59 |
| sem | If it does or doesn't that gives you good information | 00:59 |
| sem | Are you able to see the grub boot menu at all? I would mash esc or shift or whatever key you think would bring it up until you get the menu | 01:01 |
| cahoots | i'm not able to see the grub boot menu, but i am able to see the console with ctrl-alt-f3. from there, i can get it to show me that nvidia-driver-535 is installed | 01:02 |
| Bashing-om | cahoots: EFI system ? Then it is the escape key that grub looks our for - spam it soon as the bios screen clears - a 3 second window of oportunity. | 01:06 |
| sem | So if I were you I would try the live boot, and next I would get grub and boot into failsafe graphics. I love the commandline but for graphics driver problems I would want to use the drivers gui | 01:07 |
| cahoots | Bashing-om, i don't see a bios screen when it boots, even when i don't press anything | 01:09 |
| sem | Depending on your system it might have a quiet bios screen -- just start tapping escape as soon as you turn it on until you see something... You might want to look around in bios too and see what it says about which graphics card it's using before the OS loads | 01:11 |
| cahoots | tty3 gives me console, tty2 shows me a login screen. so the graphics work there, but if i log in to my usual account, the screen goes black | 01:11 |
| cahoots | sem, if i make a live USB would that maybe cause it to boot to the USB and i don't have to figure out the shift vs. esc thing? | 01:17 |
| sem | The reason you would boot from USB is to see if everything automatically works correctly, and if so, see which driver "Additional Drivers" says it's using | 01:18 |
| sem | Then you could boot back up into your installation and use that driver | 01:19 |
| sem | If it doesn't work automatically in the live USB then you have to troubleshoot more | 01:20 |
| sem | You could try sudo apt install nvidia-driver-470 and just see what happens | 01:21 |
| cahoots | true that... but why 470 specifically? | 01:22 |
| sem | That's the one WaV suggested? | 01:22 |
| sem | You can always change it again if it doesn't work | 01:22 |
| sem | One possibility is that by doing a manual install earlier, something complicated your system depending on what you did... That is why I recommend the live USB to verify that it _does_ work in a vanilla environment | 01:25 |

| mBodoMi | ok. | 02:12 |
| mBodoMi | hi all | 02:12 |
| cahoots | sem, so i made a new user account, same os install, and the graphics work for this account with the nvidia driver installed. any ideas what to do next? | 02:23 |
| sem | cahoots: you have to configure the old account to use the same driver the new one is using | 02:25 |
| cahoots | sem, both use the same driver. i actually installed it when i was on the old account, and on this new account it's using the same newly installed driver | 02:26 |
| sem | Out of curiosity how do you see which driver it is using, or trying to use | 02:27 |
| cahoots | sem, i go to "Additional Drivers..." and i see it uses nvidia-driver-535. although fyi, i removed the blacklist for nouveau's driver (chatgpt said it might help) | 02:29 |
| sem | I thought you didn't have a GUI for the first account still ? | 02:30 |
| cahoots | when i uninstall the nvidia drivers and reboot, i can log into the first account. from there i reinstalled the drivers, and when i rebooted, i was once again no longer able to log into that account without hitting a black screen | 02:31 |
| cahoots | do note that my display's hdmi cable is plugged into the motherboard's hdmi port. i plan on only using the nvidia gpu for gpgpu | 02:32 |
| sem | Just don't reinstall the drivers then? Use the ones that work | 02:32 |
| cahoots | well it "works" in that i can log onto the new account i made. but my old account still hits the issue | 02:34 |
| cahoots | so either i have to move all my stuff over from the old account, or fix whatever difference there is between the two accounts | 02:34 |
| sem | I think the old account is configured to use a driver that's not working or not installed maybe | 02:35 |
| cahoots | when i run nvidia-smi for the old account, i get what i expect, nvidia 535 | 02:36 |
| === chris14_ is now known as chris14 | ||
| sem | Maybe it is the right driver but the wrong settings | 02:37 |
| cahoots | sem, you mean maybe the settings differ between the two accounts? how would i check this | 02:37 |
| sem | And if you could delete or reset the settings it might recreate them with the working defaults | 02:38 |
| sem | See if there is a way to log what happens when you try to login and it fails | 02:38 |
| sem | It might give a clue | 02:38 |
| cahoots | sem, which logs would i check | 02:38 |
| mBodoMi | i got a quite rare and strange problem | 02:40 |
| sem | I'm not sure? Login logs, graphical driver logs? Wayland, or Xorg. You could look in /var/log/syslog first and see if anything jumps out at you, or try dmesg | 02:40 |
| sem | Try to figure out how to get a log of the login process... I think it is called gdm or lightdm | 02:41 |
| cahoots | ok tt | 02:41 |
| cahoots | *ty | 02:41 |
| sem | Good luck! | 02:41 |

| mBodoMi | the c64 wifi modem can telnet into Ubuntu PC // Raspbian but cli programs lack | 02:41 |
| mBodoMi | a terminfo descriptor | 02:42 |
| leftyfb | mBodoMi: what is your issue with ubuntu? | 02:43 |
| mBodoMi | its not ubuntus problem its just the telnet program on mz C=64 is not really | 02:44 |
| mBodoMi | supported | 02:44 |
| mBodoMi | my | 02:44 |
| leftyfb | mBodoMi: this wouldn't be the place to get help with that | 02:44 |
| leftyfb | we can only support ubuntu here | 02:44 |
| mBodoMi | its a general linux telnet on Commodore problem | 02:45 |
| leftyfb | mBodoMi: then try #linux | 02:45 |
| mBodoMi | ok | 02:45 |
| sem | leftyfb do you know what would cause the GUI to stop working once you login on Ubuntu? Or where that gets logged? | 02:46 |
| leftyfb | sem: 1 user works and another user does't? | 02:46 |
| leftyfb | doesn't* | 02:46 |
| sem | Yeah I think, according to cahoots | 02:47 |
| leftyfb | cahoots: ? | 02:47 |
| sem | I thought maybe if you could start gdm from the virtual console, you could see where it is going wrong? | 02:47 |
| sem | gdm is the gnome session manager right? | 02:48 |
| sem | Not lightdm | 02:48 |

| frib | I'm checking ss -tlnp and I See the port is not being listened on, and the thread that would normally listen is not started, so there was an issue listening/binding | 19:39 |

| morgan-u2 | Yes, I intended to be funny. | 19:50 |
| morgan-u2 | I want to be able to recommend Ubuntu and not have some silly little thing like this frustrate people right back to WinMac. -- What about a variant called Automated Ubuntu.. given one ocnfiguration, it works. -- oh yes, that's what Gnome should be. | 19:52 |
| morgan-u2 | Maybe this belongs in "offtopic" | 19:52 |
| rbox | well complanining on irc doesn really do much | 19:52 |
| rbox | besides annoy people | 19:53 |
| gordonjcp | morgan-u2: if people are likely to be put off by Chrome restarting when it updates, they're unlikely to be happy with any OS | 19:53 |
| gordonjcp | morgan-u2: generally people using Linux are doing so because it is a tool for a job | 19:54 |
| gordonjcp | I use Linux because I've been using it since before Windows was really a thing, because I'm old | 19:54 |
| gordonjcp | so my views on it may be skewed by that | 19:55 |
| gordonjcp | but I've been installing Ubuntu on non-technical people's computers for probably about ten years now | 19:55 |
| gordonjcp | particularly as people turn to things like Office 365 on the web rather than "local" apps, it just gets easier and easier | 19:56 |
| morgan-u2 | gordonjcp, that was not my issue. It freezes chrome for a while. I have gotten smart. I checked the Anarchy icon in the dock and chrome was killed. It would have happened eventually. --- People expects that the system will request a restart. That is polite and good process. imho | 19:57 |

| leftyfb | morgan-u2: btw, google chrome is not a supported application here. Though I will say it is my primary browser and have never come across your issue. The software center should have no affect on chrome | 19:58 |
| === ubuntu is now known as Guest9422 | ||
| morgan-u2 | It used to be much worse. I would much rather have Chrome be killed than have it freeze up the compute like it used to (oh that was the Dell) and I would have to do a hard reboot. Yes yes, I had mentioned that with 20.04 | 19:59 |
| morgan-u2 | Is FF the supported brower? I had it happen once with FF. II am kind of addicted to my chrome bookmarks.) If it is the supported browser then I will make another effort to switch to the firefox. | 20:00 |
| morgan-u2 | leftyb ^^ | 20:01 |
| leftyfb | yes | 20:01 |
