alcostaI was unable to boot and start a session from my computer.11:16
alcostaI have a nvidia GeForce GT710 graphic board, for which, normally, on other ubuntu 20.04 installations, i have a nvidia-driver-470.11:18
alcostaTrying to start a new ubuntu 20.04 installation, the system is unable to recognize a display monitor ASUS 28" (ultra high resolution of 3840x... dots).11:20
alcostaThe monitor, after a stARTING11:20
alcostaThe monitor, after a splash screen indicating ubuntu and ASRock (my mother board) hibernates and power off, so that nothing is more visible on the totally black display!.11:23

Neil_McCauleyeim Thema.13:35
Neil_McCauley<Neil_McCauley> Linux Ubuntu does not boot anymore in normal mode, only in failsafe mode. Did an sudo fsck /dev/sda5 check, which fixed some errors but still no boot in normal mode. Any help?13:35

strkah, why, if I may ask ?16:47

armadefuegoAnyone out there that can give me suggestions on what to look at with a problem that my mouse won't select windows? ( i can use the keyboard to change windows)17:38
leftyfbhuh?17:39
leftyfbarmadefuego: can you take a screenshot or picture?17:40
leftyfbof the screen where you're trying to "select windows"17:40
strkhow do I search for a package by partial name ? is there any such service for source pakcage on commandline ?17:40
armadefuegoAlso can't use the dash, or the _chrome_ on the window via the mouse.17:40
leftyfbarmadefuego: are you sure the mouse button works?17:41
armadefuego@strk: i use dpkg -l | grep {name}17:41
strkarmadefuego: that one only searches in the installed packages, I'm talking about searching in all packages17:41
pragmaticenigmaarmadefuego: doesn't that only search already installed packages?17:41
armadefuego@leftyb: all 3 of them! ( i have 3 mice on the machine)17:41
strklike: apt search # but for source packages17:41
webchat95I have just installed ubuntu 22.04 and now my speaker is not working the audio is coming from my headphone but not from speakers17:42

pragmaticenigmawebchat95: unplug headphones17:42
webchat95: ) now also not coming17:43
armadefuego@webchat95: can i assume that the headphone is disconnected when you test the speakers?17:43
webchat95armadefuego yes17:43
pragmaticenigmaarmadefuego: if you're receiving help, it's best to refrain from helping others. it makes it really hard to know when you are replying to someone helping you, or if you're helping someone else17:44
armadefuego@webchat95 is the setup in settings appropriate for your speakers? ( there may be options that the soundcard doesn't support to your speakers.17:45
leftyfbarmadefuego: try 1 mouse at a time17:46
webchat95armadefuego in settings the output device is showing17:46
strkdebhelper is already the newest version (12.10ubuntu1). # this prevents me to build backports requiring version 13, how do I go about that ?17:47
armadefuego1Disconnecting the mouse ( and a screen) crashed my GUI!17:53
leftyfbarmadefuego1: what release of ubuntu is this? It doesn't sound stock17:54
armadefuego123.10. Pretty much stock.17:57
armadefuego1node and chrome are the only _unubuntu repos in my apt sources ( from what i can see)17:59
leftyfbarmadefuego1: you mean beyond the stock sources.list right?18:01
armadefuego1yes.18:02
pragmaticenigmaarmadefuego1: after rebooting are you still experiencing the issue?18:05
armadefuego1restarting the GUI makes the issue disappear for a while.18:06
pragmaticenigmaarmadefuego1: with all three mice attached to the system?18:07
armadefuego1(switching GUI consoles (<CTL><ALT><F1>    === <CTL><ALT><F2>) makes the mouse behave normally, for a bit)18:08
armadefuego1yes.18:08
pragmaticenigmaarmadefuego1: why three mice?18:08
leftyfbarmadefuego1: only plug in 1 mouse at a time and see if the issue still happens18:09
armadefuego1the mice, when experiencing the issue, all work _normally_ within the window. But not in the window decorations ( menu bars)18:09
armadefuego1it seems its the window manager, not the window, in X terms anyway.18:11
pragmaticenigmaI'm going to go with this being self inflicted armadefuego1 ... as it appears there's no attempt at resolving the issue, just more anecdotal commentary that doesn't really get to the root of the problem of what probably is an edge case which is most computers are not operated with more than one mouse at a time.18:12
pragmaticenigmawithout you explaining why three mice, and actually following the suggestions of reducing the count to 1 and see if the problem occurs18:12
armadefuego1Sorry. I am just looking for what i need to include in a bug issue.18:12
pragmaticenigmait's not a bug18:13
pragmaticenigmayou have an edge case, and at the moment is going to get flagged with "won't fix" because of using three mice without explination why there is need for such an arrangement, and whether or not the problem happens with only one mouse attached18:13
armadefuego1So which file do i look at to see that the _crash_ wasn't a crash?18:14
pragmaticenigmaarmadefuego1: done helping you... since it appears you're not really experiencing a problem. just wasting people's time18:14
leftyfbarmadefuego1: let us know when you would like our help by providing answers to the questions that have been asked18:14
armadefuego1I am sorry i missed a question18:18
armadefuego13 mice: Track ball, trackpad, standard mouse.18:18
armadefuego1the _trackball_ is the additional, i think.18:19
leftyfbunplug all but 118:19
armadefuego1I did that, and i go the _oh! snap_ screen.18:20
leftyfbarmadefuego1: unplug all but 1 and reboot18:20
armadefuego1Ok. I will try that for a day, or so.18:21

pragmaticenigmaI have never heard of an "Oh Snap" screen in ubuntu... only the "Aw, Snap" in Chrome... me thinks this is a developer and is playing with WebRTC controls18:23
pragmaticenigmalocking up the control of the mouse18:24
leftyfbthey left18:24
pragmaticenigmai know... that's why I mentioned it18:24
armadefuegorebooted with the one mouse.18:27
armadefuegoThanks for the suggestion18:27
pragmaticenigmaarmadefuego: Something of interest. There is no "Oh Snap" error message that I am aware of in Ubuntu. Only time I have seen such an error screen is from Google Chrome. Seeing that you have node.js repository, I'm going to assume you are a developer. Are you working on some sort of hardware WebRTC project with Google Chrome involving pointing devices?18:29
armadefuegoNo.18:31
armadefuegoI use 2 mice because the regular mouse is _familiar_. the trackpad is good for drawing. the trackball saves my wrist.18:31
leftyfbyou can only use 1 at a time18:32
armadefuegoI am no longer an active developer. but i keep my hands dirty, sometimes.18:32
armadefuegowell, sometimes i 2-hand mouse ;)18:33
leftyfbsorry, but I doubt that18:34
armadefuego(the regular mouse has 5 buttons, the trackpad only 3!18:34
armadefuegook. sorry. 50 years of using mice i can. ( gamers use a keyboard, and a mouse at the same time, for certain games to control movement.18:35
armadefuegoi guess its all what you are used to.18:35
strkhow do I downgrade a package ?18:51
strkI built a custom one with a newer version and now I'd like to move back18:52
strkoh, appending =<oldversion> works18:52
tomreynstrk: this will last until the next time you install upgrades19:57
tomreynapt pinning is an apt mechanism which can prevent upgrades. obviously, doing so also introduces security risks / prevents patching of vulnerabilities19:58
dob1_hi, why with kernel 6.5.0-14-generic gcc-12 was not installed ?20:14
pragmaticenigmadob1_: You'll have to explain why you expect a kernel update to also install a compiler update20:16
dob1_pragmaticenigma: the problem: I was installing virtualbox (the one from virtualbox repository), the build of the module fails because gcc-12 was not installed and gcc-12 is the compiler defined by the kernel20:17
dob1_*failed20:17
ravagethat is a question you have to ask the virtualbox repository maintainer then20:19
dob1_they say this20:19
pragmaticenigmadob1_: There is a virtual box package in Ubuntu's support repositories. It is highly recommended that you use that one, as it is built and conforms to the available packages for Ubuntu.20:23
pragmaticenigma*Ubuntu's supported repositories20:23
dob1_pragmaticenigma: sorry but imho this is not the point20:25
pragmaticenigma!latest | dob1_20:26
ubottudob1_: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa.20:26
=== wp is now known as wolfpackmars2
pragmaticenigmadob1_: It is every bit the point. You came here expecting something to work, where you made the choice to use an unsupported package repository. In doing so, there's no help here for your situation. The suggestion of using the package already offered in the repository is because it is supported here, and we can help with issues you may have in using it.20:28
pragmaticenigmadob1_: Also worth noting, the repository from Oracle for VirtualBox is well known for breaking Ubuntu installs. I've had several of my past installations break because of it. Oracle commonly provides packages for other supporting libraries that break other funcationality in Ubuntu20:29
dob1_what I am saying is, if in Makefile or whatever build is defined, is setup to "give me the default gcc for this kernel" and this gcc is not installed imho is a distribution problem20:30
=== wolfpackmars2 is now known as wp
=== wp is now known as wolfpackmars2
dob1_not a package/repository problem20:30
dob1_is not that virtualbox package defined gcc-12 hardcoded to use it while building the module20:30
pragmaticenigmaYou are using an unsupported repository with a dependency requirement that is not met by Ubuntu's default and supported repository. That is not a supportable scenario here20:30

jwashso what20:58
jwashi just commented about my experience20:58
jwashget over yourself20:58
pragmaticenigmabecause then someone goes off and installs PPAs thinking becuase it was suggested or mentioned here it's a supported action. Then their install is broken and they're told "Sorry, we don't support that here" and left to pound sand. Leaving a poor experience for that person.20:59

UndrWater_new to ubuntu server: when upgrading php, is there an automated way to update modified php files, such as .ini and www?21:34
leftyfbansible21:35
pragmaticenigmaUndrWater_: Explain upgrading php? Like from a system update using apt?21:35
UndrWater_pragmaticenigma: moving from php8.1 to php8.2 for example21:37
UndrWater_perhaps migrating was a more accurate term21:37
pragmaticenigmaUndrWater_: it might be, as upgrade would be something handled by the package manager, which would take care of config files for you, or alert you to changes made from the package copy compared to your local copy21:38
leftyfbUndrWater_: not as part of the package upgrade/install. It would be done after the package upgraded/installed.21:38
mtchaving trouble with my login after an upgrade... I get a black screen with a cursor instead of a login screen... I tried to boot to an old kernel with grub, but still getting the same problem... I think it is graphical driver problem.. I am using the open source amd drivers... how can I troubleshoot or reinstall them?21:39
