[00:00] <geek_> the flag for Wayland (tried both ways) no difference AND commented the line NOT do auto sign in
[00:00] <oerheks> in foyu have installed nouveau gain, theat line would be commented out. so wayland is an option again
[00:01] <oerheks>  sudo systemctl restart gdm3
[00:01] <geek_> ok
[00:04] <geek_> thats done -- now from root terminal do i just type reboot ?
[00:07] <geek_> i am not a terminal wizard...
[00:15] <geek_> was that supposed to restart desktop ?  it didnt -- then i tried sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm3 -- just goes back to root prompt
[00:25] <geek_> oerheks I GOT IT GOING - I also had to sudo apt autoremove (to get rid of some other nvidia stuff) i am back in desktop THANKS... now timeshift backup
[03:06] <darwin> i set an icon in /tmp/.directory because linked to /home/user/tmp for easier temporary usage, but my icon keeps disappearing because apparently the .directory keeps getting deleted... is there a way I can set it so whatever system service doesn't delete it?
[03:06] <darwin> what happened to installation-guide-amd64 package?
[03:18] <JanC> don't use a temporary directory to store things that aren't temporary?

[04:32] <jacekowski> hi people
[04:32] <lotuspsychje> welcome jacekowski
[04:32] <jacekowski> i have an issue with ubuntu not loading amdgpu automatically
[04:33] <jacekowski> which then messes up other things later during boot
[04:33] <jacekowski> i can modprobe it just fine
[04:34] <lotuspsychje> jacekowski: amdgpu module should load by default, unless the specific kernel comes to an error around
[04:35] <lotuspsychje> jacekowski: a good starting point is mention your ubuntu release and kernel version with the volunteers here
[04:35] <lotuspsychje> and upload your dmesg to a !paste service
[04:35] <jacekowski> it's not even attempting to load the module
[04:35] <lotuspsychje> thats possible yeah
[04:36] <jacekowski> Linux kubuntu 5.15.0-97-generic #107-Ubuntu SMP Wed Feb 7 13:26:48 UTC 2024 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[04:36] <jacekowski> 22.04.04
[04:36] <jacekowski> so i would expect the issue to be somwhere around initrd
[04:38] <lotuspsychje> !info linux-image-generic jammy
[04:39] <lotuspsychje> jacekowski: so please share your dmesg here with the volunteers aswell
[04:39] <jacekowski> i'm just booting it with debug in cmdline
[04:40] <jacekowski> https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/sXVXRZYwY6/
[04:48] <lotuspsychje> jacekowski: sudo lshw -C video , in a !paste too please
[04:49] <jacekowski> https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/Zp57yx5MJ8/
[04:50] <lotuspsychje> yep unclaimed indeed
[04:51] <lotuspsychje> jacekowski: lets try the !HWE kernel as a test
[04:51] <lotuspsychje> !hwe | jacekowski
[04:52] <lotuspsychje> jacekowski: a more easy tut, https://www.linuxcapable.com/how-to-install-hwe-kernel-on-ubuntu-linux/
[04:52] <jacekowski> it used to work
[04:52] <jacekowski> then i did an upgrade
[04:52] <lotuspsychje> its posible newer kernel versions get stuck modules jacekowski that happens
[04:52] <jacekowski> also, if i do modprobe amdgpu after it boots, driver loads fine
[04:53] <lotuspsychje> thats odd indeed
[04:53] <jacekowski> the only thing that i'm not sure about
[04:54] <jacekowski> this system boots via iscsi on various machines
[04:54] <jacekowski> some with novideo graphics
[04:54] <jacekowski> and i might have updated it on machine with novideo
[04:57] <jacekowski> hmmmmmmmmm
[04:57] <jacekowski> it did work with hew kernel
[04:57] <lotuspsychje> yay
[04:58] <lotuspsychje> iscsi is a server you playing on jacekowski ?
[04:58] <jacekowski> no, it's a desktop
[04:59] <jacekowski> but i'm using PXE + iscsi to boot it
[04:59] <jacekowski> sometimes
[04:59] <lotuspsychje> i see
[05:00] <lotuspsychje> so lets assume latest kernel 5.15 doesnt like your module jacekowski
[05:00] <lotuspsychje> jacekowski: if you want more proves, you could try booting a lower kernel 5.15 to see if you can reproduce
[05:01] <jacekowski> i've tried it with -94 and it was broken as well
[05:02] <lotuspsychje> hmm
[05:02] <jacekowski> it worked on whatever was available ~month ago
[05:02] <lotuspsychje> jacekowski: ok, then perhaps try the oldest of your 5.15 series

[10:48] <peacefulman> jay: how's it going?
[10:48] <elhoir> failsafe, sorry

[10:54] <peacefulman> elhoir: when you go to the start menu, or program list, do you see the additional drivers program?
[10:54] <elhoir> yes
[10:54] <elhoir> there is no additional drivers available
[10:55] <peacefulman> :(
[10:55] <peacefulman> hrm
[10:55] <elhoir> you mean the software-properties-gtk app, right?
[10:56] <elhoir> no additional drivers
[10:56] <peacefulman> yeah thats the app
[10:56] <peacefulman> strange
[10:56] <elhoir> and system is fully upgraded
[10:59] <elhoir> any idea?
[10:59] <peacefulman> I'm not sure, I've never had a amd gpu with ubuntu, and the amd site doesn't list 24.04 as a supported os yet
[10:59] <bl4ckhat> why?
[10:59] <peacefulman> amd lists 22.04 or 23
[11:00] <peacefulman> https://www.amd.com/en/support/linux-drivers
[11:01] <elhoir> it has been working until latest full-upgrade on friday
[11:01] <elhoir> its odd
[11:02] <elhoir> and i dont use amd drivers, only sotck ubuntu ones
[11:02] <peacefulman> oh so it was working just on friday?
[11:02] <elhoir> stock*
[11:02] <elhoir> peacefulman, yes
[11:02] <peacefulman> ha, that happened to me with my nvidia drivers like a week ago
[11:02] <elhoir> i upgraded acout 200 or 300 packages and it stopped working
[11:03] <peacefulman> with 22.04
[11:03] <elhoir> and what did you do to fix it?
[11:04] <peacefulman> well, I switch the driver version and had to shutdown the pc. When I dual booted and rebooted from windows 10 it caused issues
[11:04] <peacefulman> are you dual-booting?
[11:04] <peacefulman> (running windows as well)
[11:04] <elhoir> yes xD i dual boot

[11:05] <mandem0110> And? doesn't mean you should ask here too. lol
[11:05] <peacefulman> elhoir: well, you could try doing a full shutdown/poweroff. Then turn back on

[11:07] <mandem0110> No one answered so he thought it would be a good idea to ask here :/
[11:15] <elhoir> mandem0110, well, actually they did answer, but it seems they dont know how to help
[11:15] <mandem0110> Okay, cool. So why ask here? :D
[11:15] <elhoir> thats why i search here
[11:15] <elhoir> because i neewd to know whats happening lol
[11:15] <mandem0110> No, you did not search here. You *asked* here when you know you shouldn't have.
[11:16] <oerheks> it is still early, just wait and see
[11:16] <elhoir> okay name it as you wish xd
[11:16] <mandem0110> Just because someone didn't answer straight away, doesn't mean you should ask in different channels...

[12:49] <peirik> holy crap it works with ctrl+l
[12:50] <peirik> is this a new feature in 24?

[12:50] <ravage> i only know it did not work in 22.04
[12:50] <ravage> only use LTS releases

[15:26] <deadrom> xubuntu 22.04 LTS machine, firefox won't offer the laser printer anymore when printing an article, while system settings list the printer and prints a test page alright - what's happened here?
[15:26] <deadrom> it _is_ possible that the user accidentally upgraded to 22.10 or later, not-computer person
[15:27] <deadrom> in fact the least computer person I ever dealt with

[15:32] <deadrom> what's the status with snap and flatpak? I keep hearing snap is tricky and flatpak is somewhat closed, so which way is canonical gonna go?
[15:35] <oerheks> we use snaps.
[15:35] <oerheks> for years now.

[20:52] <mrcoffee> Hello
[20:52] <mrcoffee> I have an issue with bluetooth in ubuntu 22
[20:52] <mrcoffee> Im using tws headphones and everytime i loose the link..
[20:53] <mrcoffee> I have to manually remove the device and start fresh..
[20:53] <mrcoffee> If i dont do that the bluetooth settings will say connected but sound coming through the laptop speakers instead of the headphones..
[20:54] <mrcoffee> How can i fix that.. It makes me loose a lot of time manually rewmoving the device and paring afresh each time i go out of reach for some reason..
[21:01] <bprompt> mrcoffee: I'd say, install "pavucontrol", which is a volume control center, and if the bluetooth headphone loses its link, check in "pavucontrol", it'll show in the menus as "pulse audio volume control", and from there choose the output device, and from the list pick your bluetooth headphone
[21:04] <mrcoffee> Ok bprompt thats an option i might try, but really would like the bluettoth tab within settings to work properly..
[21:13] <TheChinaskiBoy> having some trouble using a security key on ubuntu. gnome-keyring-daemon is running and I see the keys in the gui. I'm only able to ssh with the key if I a) start a new ssh-agent in the current terminal, and b) have ssh-askpass installed, otherwise I get "agent refused operation"
[21:15] <TheChinaskiBoy> any ideas what I may be missing? ideally it would work with the already running ssh-agent, and prompt for the pin in the terminal without needing needing ssh-askpass
[21:16] <TheChinaskiBoy> I assume it's something to do with the permissions required by some component in the flow, since if I use sudo then it just works as above, no ssh-askpass or local ssh-agent needed
[21:21] <mrcoffee> THats strange headphones seem to work properly now.. Cant replicate the issue i was having, weird.
[21:26] <bprompt> mrcoffee: maybe it was the battery =)
[21:41] <oerheks> no.

[23:38] <sem> If you have a multi-boot system, is there a sensible way to have them all update grub independently, or is it better to have one that can update grub, and the others don't touch it?
[23:39] <rbox> its better to just have 1 dist
[23:39] <rbox> fofl
[23:41] <sem> Ok, I thought it might be. That's how I'm doing it now. But if one of the minor ones updates its kernel, I have to run update grub from the main system for OS prober to find the new kernel.
[23:42] <sem> Is there an alternative to that or just best to live with it
