jawadCan you check it?05:02
thisisjaymehtaI dont have a spare ubuntu system to experiment on. But try restarting using network manager using: `service network-manager restart` and then `ifconfig wlan0 up`. Note: Name of your wireless card might be different than wlan0, in that case use that name.05:05

lotuspsychjewelcome Bombo15:49
Bombohow do i chk which amdgpu driver is in use?15:49
lotuspsychjeBombo: sudo lshw -C video15:49
lotuspsychjeat bottom driver=.....willshowup here15:49
Bombolotuspsychje: driver=amdgpu hm15:52
Bomboso i guess it's the new driver i installed with amdgpu-installer15:52
lotuspsychjeBombo: amdgpu driver should be loaded as module by default based on your graphics card15:53
lotuspsychjewhat tutorial did you follow to do something else?15:54
Bombolotuspsychje: https://www.amd.com/de/support/linux-drivers https://amdgpu-install.readthedocs.io/en/latest/install-script.html15:55
Bombolotuspsychje: the card worked before, it used xserver-xorg-video-amdgpu15:56
Bombolotuspsychje: but RDNA was not working, but after that amdgpu-installer it doesn't work either15:57
Bombohow can i test the features of my amdgpu then15:58
Bombolist15:58
lotuspsychjeBombo: i would start with the amdgpu module loaded by default from ubuntu15:58
oerheksand for what ubuntu version?15:59
lotuspsychjeBombo: if you got things not working from there, you can start debug15:59
Bombolotuspsychje: i did nothing and it worked, but not the RDNA part (blender says)15:59
Bombolotuspsychje: before there was only xserver-xorg-video-amdgpu installed16:00
Bomboanyone with an AMD GPU knows how to list features to see if RDNA is enabled?16:00
oerheksmaybe that is part of amdgpu-pro?16:00
Bombowhat did i install then?16:02
Bombothere is a pro version?16:02
lotuspsychjeBombo: oerheks asked you wich ubuntu release16:03
lotuspsychjeamdgpu driver version would be handy and blender version tested too16:03
oerhekspro is just a bibairy blob,  on top of amdgpu16:03
oerheksc/binairy16:03
oerheksyeah, ubuntu version, kernel and gpu info would be a minimum16:04
Bombooh i did not see that sorry, its 22.04 jammy16:04
Bomboblender 4.0.216:04
BomboAMD Radeon RX 6500 XT, https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/latest/render/cycles/gpu_rendering.html say 'Radeon RX 6000 Series' 'with Linux: Radeon Software 22.10 or ROCm 5.3'16:05

oerheksthen i have no clue why RDNA 2 is not enabled16:14
lotuspsychjehttps://www.phoronix.com/review/blender-32-gpus16:15
Bombomaybe it's blender's fault so i ask if there is an othe rway to check16:16
Bomboif feature is enabled or not16:16
oerheksmaybe #blender is a help16:22
lotuspsychjeBombo: can you do some tests with the blender snap perhaps16:22
lotuspsychjelatest/stable or latest/edge16:23
Bomboi suspect it's a drivre issue so i wanted to try it with another tool, that uses RDNA16:26
BinarySavioris there any program i can run on a micro sd card which is not detected when inserted into reader?16:46
BinarySaviorother micro sd cards work16:46
BinarySaviorjust this one is not detected16:46
BinarySavioror is it fried16:46
Paristry gparted, or in another device, most likely it's a dead card.16:47
leftyfbBinarySavior: if it doesn't show up in dmesg, then it's dead16:48
Parischeck the contacts also, there can be crap preventing connection. Sometimes a card might read onto another device, then backup it, and change it.16:50
JanCBinarySavior: what do you mean by "not detected"?17:31
Bombo*doh* sudo usermod -a -G render $LOGNAME was missing, now it works17:34
user_hello17:34
plujonGood day.17:48
plujonRecently my Ubuntu 22.04 LTS system stopped fully powering off.  I asked about this the other day, thinking this was a problem with suspend, but when I shut down my computer yesterday, the fan stayed on as did activity lights in the front and back.  Any ideas what might cause this behavior and how I can troubleshoot it?17:49
=== user03 is now known as gchound
lotuspsychjeplujon: you can press F1 at shutdown process to switch to textmode, see where it bottlenecks17:53
plujonlotuspsychje: Thanks; I'll try that.  But I think my display goes black.17:55
plujonNot too long ago, I got two new hard drives: 1 nvme and 1 classic platter.  I don't know if that is a contributor somehow.17:56
plujonI also updated Ubuntu recently, and I might have gotten a newer kernel, and I moved Virtual Box versions from 6.x to 7.0.17:57
plujonSo, my three leading suspects are: 1. hard drive(s), 2. kernel upgrade, 3. virtual box upgrade.  But I have no hard evidence for any of them.17:57
lotuspsychjeplujon: investigate your logs, share in a !paste with the volunteers17:58
lotuspsychjeusualy F1 text shutdown will give you an idea of whats happening last to your system, some cases you can catch a hang/freeze17:59
plujonHow can I view logs?18:00
lotuspsychjetry the F1 trick first18:00
plujonI've already looked at journalctl, for example.18:00
lotuspsychjesee how far you can reach your shutdown18:00
plujonOkay, I'll try the F1 trick.  I guess I'll have to write down what I see, if anything.  I fear the screen will go black and I won't have much to go on.  We'll see.18:02
plujonAnd, ... the problem does not occur on every shutdown.18:02
* plujon about to try shutting down18:02
plujonThe computer shut down normally.18:09
plujonThe last thing on the screen before the monitor went black was something about evicting inodes.18:09
plujonThe amount of time to read the screen before the monitor goes dark is rather short.  Is it possible to make Linux shut down components in a different order, or to shut down everything except the display?18:14
pragmaticenigmaplujon: are you running in a VM?18:17
BinarySaviorJanC, I mean it's not mounted when i plug it in like other cards18:18
JanCBinarySavior: but it shows up in Gnome Disks?18:19
plujonpragmaticenigma: Not right now, but I often do.18:19
BinarySaviorJanC, no it doesn't show up in gnome disks either18:19
plujonI could try starting and stopping a virtualbox vm, and then seeing if my host fails to shutdown.18:19
pragmaticenigmaplujon: when you installed the new drives, did you copy data from the old onto the new, or did you do a fresh install.18:20
JanCBinarySavior: and nothing in the journal or dmesg either?18:20
BinarySaviorJanC, i didn't check journal or dmesg18:20
BinarySaviorI just ordered a new card, this one is 10 years old18:20
JanCthere might be errors there at the moment you plug it in18:20
plujonpragmaticenigma: The new drives are not system drives; they hold only data.  I formatted them as ext4 and copied some files onto them using cp.18:20
plujonI have one SSD plugged in that had started failing about a month ago, but it is not mounted (I removed it from /etc/fstab).18:21
plujonI'm running 6.5.0-14-generic.  I also added a few kernel parameters:18:22
plujonnvme_core.default_ps_max_latency_us=0 pcie_aspm=off libata.noacpi=1 # I added these when I started to have problems with the failing NVME drive18:23
plujonI guess those kernel parameters are suspect #4.18:23
pragmaticenigmaplujon: I would recommend removing the failing drive completely. Even though it's not being mounted, the kernel is still looking at it and trying to access parts of it18:27
plujonpragmaticenigma: Even on shutdown?  Even with no mounted file system?  Interesting.18:28
pragmaticenigmaplujon: failing hardware can cause a lot of problems just being present. what ever is causing the drive to fail could very well be causing electrical noise or shorts in the system. Even with the drive unmounted, the kernel knows there is a drive there and will try to send a power up/down signal to that drive.18:29
pragmaticenigmaA failing drive should be immediately backed up, and then removed to prevent further potential data loss.18:30
BinarySaviori have huge static build up on my body when sitting at my desk, i literally get shocked each time i touch something after sitting at my desk18:34
BinarySaviorpretty sure i fried my sd card with my own static18:35
pragmaticenigmaif it repeatedly happens, that's very likely BinarySavior. You might want to invest in a humidifier if the air is really dry where you are.18:36
plujonpragmaticenigma: Ah, thanks.  I'll shutdown and remove the drive.18:36
OnkelTemHi folks. I give up on trying to get colors from GNOME Terminal. How can I get its color palette? Can I use dconf for that? Or should it be gsettings? Is it really - a CSS file?18:38
OnkelTemUbuntu 22.04 here18:38
Stefan1899Search for ubuntu color code online18:39
JanCBinarySavior: that is probably a result of the particular fabric of your clothes then (maybe combined with the fabric of your chair)?18:39
OnkelTemStefan1899: it's useless, I tired of googling18:39
lotuspsychjeOnkelTem: terminals got color schemes in settings18:40
OnkelTemlotuspsychje: yep, I see them. I need the palette from the default "GNOME" built-in one18:40
lotuspsychjeOnkelTem: you mean the color codes from gnome terminal?18:41
OnkelTemlotuspsychje: positive!18:41
OnkelTemI'm pretty sure those built-in palettes should be stored somewhere, hopefully not in code18:41
OnkelTemI just can't get them. I tried using dconf but meh... it didn't help and my familiarity with it is near zero18:42
plujonI started and stopped a VM, shutdown was still clean.  I removed the failing nvme disk.18:50
pragmaticenigmaOnkelTem: I suspect the built in pallets are compiled into source. If only to avoid a user accidentally deleting or making a difficult to correct mistake18:51
pragmaticenigmaI thought the colors themselves got stored as environment variables when initializing the session18:53
OnkelTempragmaticenigma: as for the source - it's reasonable, yes. Do you have an idea where I can find the source?18:53
pragmaticenigmaFor Gnome terminal? I imagine it's somewhere in their code repos: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME18:54
OnkelTempragmaticenigma: thanks!18:55
pragmaticenigmaOnkelTem: https://gitlab.gnome.org/explore might be a little better link18:55
plujonI've also removed the custom kernel parameters.18:56
plujonjournalctl contains # kernel: NOHZ tick-stop error: local softirq work is pending, handler #200!!!18:56
plujonI'll head over to #linux to ask about this error.18:59

bpromptallo allo22:23
meenaI just finally upgraded this laptop to 22.04, and for some reason, it prefers to install firefox from a snap package, rather than from the Mozilla PPA i added. How can I craft an apt preferences to prefer the PPA?22:25
meenahere's what apt-cache policy firefox looks like: https://gist.github.com/igalic/b594faa47755f03244932c6afde2cf4322:27

xanguaAs far as I know, he Mozilla PPA offers Firefox ESR meena, so you need to install that22:28
meenaxangua: I *want* the Beta.22:28
xanguaThere's also a new Deb repository made by Mozilla22:28

JanCI assume you mean https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/install-firefox-linux#w_install-firefox-deb-package-for-debian-based-distributions22:31
