[00:27] <azidhaka> Hi everyone, please help with botched partition resize... after growpart /dev/sdb 1 and before resize2fs i had to reboot and now the ext4 filesystem cannot be mounted or visible in lsblk - mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb1,
[00:28] <oerheks> after that, edit grub with the new UUID?
[00:28] <oerheks> !grub
[00:47] <azidhaka> oerheks: the partition is not visible in lsblk, it does not have uuid
[00:49] <oerheks> that is weird. somehow corrupted?
[00:51] <zphinx> was sdb1 your /boot/ or /boot/efi ?
[00:52] <zphinx> efi is supposed to be fat32
[00:58] <azidhaka> zphinx: its /dev/sdb, a second disk mounted on /data
[01:00] <zphinx> does it show up in fdisk ?
[01:01] <oerheks> no, it will be sdb1
[01:01] <oerheks> mistake often made
[01:10] <azidhaka> zphinx: yes, it is visible in fdisk
[01:10] <azidhaka> zphinx: the partition i guess went out of alignment of something similar
[01:11] <oerheks> show fdisk -l
[01:11] <azidhaka> zphinx: this has happened before and an ext4 magician then told me to xxd the first bytes of the disk, then told me how to move the partition by a couple of bytes and it was solved
[01:11] <azidhaka> i guess now this returns to bite me in the a**
[01:12] <oerheks> ...
[01:12] <oerheks> not worth mentioning with your initial question?
[01:12] <oerheks> go start from fresh
[01:13] <azidhaka> oerheks: https://p.ip.fi/q_-O
[01:13] <azidhaka> i hope for another ext4 magician :D
[01:14] <oerheks> no, all partitions, howto spot  misalignment?
[01:15] <azidhaka> oerheks: sorry, i couldn't understand you, "all partitions"? there is a single partition on this disk
[01:16] <tomreyn> ubuntu's fdisk has supported GPT for a while now. which ubuntu version are you running there?
[01:17] <azidhaka> tomreyn: its a legacy system so it's ancient, 11.04
[01:18] <tomreyn> that's yet another fact you should have mentioned with your first question. or, ideally, have read the /topic which lists the release versiosns supported here.
[01:19] <azidhaka> tomreyn: i m very sorry, i know it is long gone
[01:19] <tomreyn> why are you using this old a version, and even making such changes to it?
[01:20] <azidhaka> its a legacy VoIP system built on this Ubuntu version, we cannot upgrade at all
[01:20] <azidhaka> tomreyn: the disk was extended because the recordings could not fit anymore
[01:21] <tomreyn> then it'll be better to build it from scratch. and maybe get commercial support with preparing for that.
[01:21] <tomreyn> build it from scratch using a supported ubuntu version
[01:21] <azidhaka> tomreyn: I could have done this if it was possible
[01:22] <oerheks> your system is a huge secutiry issue, connected to internet and VOIP.;
[01:22] <oerheks> it is possible.
[01:22] <azidhaka> oerheks: its not connected to the internet, the VoIP is internal only (LAN)
[01:22] <azidhaka> oerheks: everything is isolated in vlans
[01:23] <azidhaka> i am aware of the problems running such an ancient version
[01:23] <azidhaka> every other VM is on supported ubuntu version, just not this one
[01:25] <tomreyn> unfortunately you cannot expect to find support with such an ancient non LTS release from volunteers here, nor from canonical support.
[01:27] <tomreyn> And when even the OS developing company no longer supports your version, that should be a veeery good indicator that it should have been migrated / redone a long time ago.
[01:29] <tomreyn> you'll have backups. i'd invest my time only into learning how the existing data can be reused on a supported OS, with supported software.
[01:33] <tomreyn> azidhaka: is this ubuntu 11.04 system the same or a different system than the centos 6 system you're g4tting help with in #linux?
[01:35] <oerheks> ...
[01:35] <azidhaka> tomreyn: its a different system, we have the software on two VMs, the production system is on CentOS and the dev on Ubuntu when we tried clonning it with the intention of upgrading to newer Ubuntu
[01:36] <azidhaka> both have the same problem
[01:36] <oerheks> Those systems do not a problem.
[01:36] <azidhaka> they helped me with suggesting testdisk on the centos system, now trying the same on the ubuntu VM
[01:37] <oerheks> good luck
[01:42] <tomreyn> azidhaka: attempting to upgrade from such an old release is not a good strategy. you should instead build a new system on a current OS version and reproduce the functionality the old system had using supported software.
[01:42] <azidhaka> testdisk did find and repair the partition on the Ubuntu system as well
[01:45] <azidhaka> tomreyn: thank you, i am very aware of everything you said, just... that is a legacy system, the "manufacturer" is long gone. Complicated stuff.
[01:46] <tomreyn> i got so much, sure that's a difficult situation, but continuing to run the system without a serious migration plan and schedule will just make things worse. that's my personal perspective, yours may differ.
[01:47] <azidhaka> tomreyn:  our perspectives align perfectly, but sometimes in the corporate world we cannot get what we want :(
[01:48] <tomreyn> sorry to hear that's the situation you're in there. good luck.
[01:48] <azidhaka> tomreyn: thank you. have a nice day and thank you for your insights
[02:40] <jim> anyone know where the x86 bootable installer images are?
[03:39] <swirly> hey quick question when will i be able to get kde plasma 6 as an apt package
[03:39] <swirly> im using linux mint but they told me to ask you guys
[03:39] <swirly> dont know if that helps
[03:39] <lotuspsychje> !mint
[03:46] <chico_> swirly: hard to tell but you can install the latest available with 'sudo apt install kde-plasma-desktop'
[03:48] <chico_> swirly: what vs does it say using 'apt show kde-plasma-desktop'
[03:48] <Bashing-om> swirly: Awaiting KDE Plasma 6 to hit the Kubuntu backports PPA.
[03:49] <swirly> chico_: 5:118ubuntu1
[03:53]  * swirly leaves this mortal plane
[07:05] <Fenhl> I'm trying to do some benchmarking which involves running a process in `perf` a bunch of times. I'm on Windows so I'm doing this through Ubuntu in WSL2. But the VM just completely locks up after some number of iterations, to the point that `wsl true` hangs indefinitely. Other WSL distros keep working. I can temporarily fix it by shutting down WSL, but it just gets back into that same state after a while when resuming benchmarking.
[07:06] <Fenhl> Existing processes run fine, e.g. I can still interact with a `htop` instance I started before the benchmarking script. But it seems like any new processes, including the one that generates my shell prompt, hang forever. Based on a suggestion from elsewhere, I've had `dmesg --follow` running, which isn't displaying any new messages at the point things break. Any suggestions on what could be causing this?
[07:42] <root> software
[07:44] <lotuspsychje> Fenhl: htop and journalctl -f might give some light perhaps?
[07:45] <Fenhl> htop is showing CPU near 0, RAM at around 50%, and each of the `perf` processes has a child process in `D` state
[07:45] <Fenhl> will run journalctl as well on the next attempt
[07:46] <lotuspsychje> Fenhl: did you pick enough ram/hd for your VM?
[07:47] <Fenhl> there's definitely plenty of disk space
[07:47] <Fenhl> didn't seem like RAM was an issue either
[07:48] <Fenhl> I'm currently running the benchmarking script again and it's still working normally, and htop is showing RAM hovering around 15 out of 30G
[12:02] <frib> How can I fix this issue? The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[12:02] <frib>  libgphoto2-6:i386 : Depends: libgd3:i386 (>= 2.1.0~alpha~) but it is not going to be installed
[12:02] <lotuspsychje> frib: unmet dependencys mostly occur due external ppa's conflict
[12:02] <lotuspsychje> frib: you got some external ppa's on your system?
[12:03] <frib> maybe 2 that are necessary yes
[12:03] <frib> one for my school and one for work
[12:04] <lotuspsychje> frib: best to ppa purge them, bring back your sources to the original ubuntu ones to resolve your conflict
[12:04] <lotuspsychje> !ppapurge
[12:05] <frib> I can't do that. I wonder if this problem is related to multiarch though?
[12:06] <lotuspsychje> frib: feel free to !paste your sources.list with the volunteers, they can have a look for you
[12:06] <frib> volunteers?
[12:07] <lotuspsychje> frib: yes, this channel is backed by volunteers of the ubuntu community
[12:08] <webchat52> Hi everyone, some apt upgrade on March 1st included nvidia (470.223.02-0ubuntu0.22.04.1, 470.239.06-0ubuntu0.22.04.1) and now my graphic card / monitors don't work properly. Is this the place to describe my issue (I'm new here) ?
[12:09] <frib> https://pastebin.com/fPcMcBDn
[12:09] <frib> that's my source list and this is everything in sources.list.d: deb https://gt-cs6200.github.io/ppa ./

[12:09] <frib> # deb-src https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/ondrej/php/ubuntu/ jammy mai
[12:30] <frib> maybe I just needded sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
[12:30] <frib>  ?
[12:34] <PeGaSuS> frib: what if you change the line "deb https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/ondrej/php/ubuntu/ jammy main" to be "deb [arch=amd64] https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/ondrej/php/ubuntu/ jammy main" instead? assuming you're not running ARM or something

[12:46] <PeGaSuS> most likely, yes. but Sundays are always more slow
[12:49] <webchat52> Basically, I don't manage to re-install the Additional Drivers 'NVIDIA driver metapackage from nvidia-driver-470'.
[12:51] <webchat52> Everything worked fine for months. Then on March 1st after a reboot, the graphic card/monitors didn't work properly ('unknown display', very low resolution). I investigated a bit a saw :

[12:51] <tomreyn> !paste | webchat52
[12:53] <webchat52> ok sorry. Extract from apt history log : https://dpaste.com/48EMMYYP4
[12:54] <webchat52> Logs of my tries to reinstall the nvidia drivers : https://dpaste.com/G3ZZ7GJT7
[12:56] <webchat52> The "dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of nvidia-driver-470" blocks me, I don't know what to do.
[12:58] <tomreyn> webchat52: lines 194 and 195 are relevant. the nvidia kernel module failed to build, and there's a separate logfile saying why
[12:59] <webchat52> Here's the make.log : https://dpaste.com/8B9EFJ676
[13:03] <tomreyn> webchat52: can you install package gcc-12, then run   export CC=/usr/bin/gcc-12     and try again?
[13:08] <tomreyn> !info gcc jammy
[13:08] <webchat52> Thks tomreyn, seems to work, at least the apt install https://dpaste.com/C5674WBZ7
[13:08] <webchat52> Now I reboot and come back here
[13:09] <tomreyn> looks like the kernel modules built fine this time around. good luck
[13:16] <webchat52> Just rebooted : the graphic card / monitors don't work properly, although the reinstallation of nvidia proprietary driver seemed to work.
[13:17] <tomreyn> webchat52: this may help - does it install additional packages?    sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade && sudo apt full-upgrade
[13:17] <tomreyn> which kernel version is running now?    cat /proc/version
[13:18] <webchat52> In "Software & Updates"/"Additional Drivers", I fall back to "Using X.Org X --Nouveau display driver from xserver-xorg-video-nouveau (open source)", but this driver doesn't support the full resolution of my 34' screen...
[13:19] <ravage> in my experience purging all packages that include nvidia in the name and then just install the nvidia-driver-$VERSION that wotks for your card usually fixes stuff
[13:19] <ravage> had thr problem of the module not loading or working a few times after an upgrade already
[13:19] <webchat52> sudo apt update / upgrade / full-upgrade : reports nothing strange, 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[13:20] <webchat52> kernel version : 6.5.0-14 now ?? https://dpaste.com/3B586Z2NW
[13:22] <tomreyn> maybe ravage's suggestion is the easiest approach
[13:23] <ravage> i did not follow the whole conversation. did we already find the latest version that supports his card?
[13:23] <webchat52> ravage , how should I purge all packages that include nvidia in the name ? (am not proficient) Should do this from a boot in safe mode ?
[13:24] <ravage> you can get a list with: dpkg -l|grep 'ii '|grep nvidia|xargs
[13:24] <ravage> if that looks reasonable you can add that to: sudo apt remove --purge [list of packages]
[13:27] <tomreyn> ravage: we did not. webchat52 runs jammy on amd64. installing pending updates via apt resulted in nvidia-dkms-470 failing to build the kernel module for then running kernel version 6.5.0-14-generic: https://dpaste.com/G3ZZ7GJT7 https://dpaste.com/8B9EFJ676 - because the dkms module build script expects to use gcc-12 or newer (which provides the "unrecognized command-line option ‘-ftrivial-auto-var-init=zero’"), but jammy defaults to gcc-11
[13:28] <tomreyn> "we did not" was in response to "did we already find the latest version that supports his card?". i do not know which hardware it is. but driver variant 470 was apparently working previously.
[13:29] <webchat52> I get this list https://dpaste.com/9TFRCPK4J. Please could you confirm what I should try is "sudo apt remove --purge linux-objects-nvidia-470-6.5.0-14-generic linux-objects-nvidia-470-6.5.0-21-generic linux-objects-nvidia-470-6.5.0-21-generic linux-objects-nvidia-470-6.5.0-21-generic" ?
[13:29] <webchat52> (thanks so much guys for your help, sorry for the stupid questions)
[13:29] <tomreyn> (note: i think i read somewhere that webchat52 is using wayland)
[13:29] <ravage> oh that is a bad idea with nvidia
[13:29] <ravage> make sure to switch to xorg if possible on the login screen
[13:30] <webchat52> I don't think I'm using wayland. How can I check ?
[13:30] <ravage> after you did click on your username on the login screen there is a gear icon
[13:30] <ravage> you can choose the session type there
[13:30] <ravage> let me check the list
[13:30] <ravage> yes purge that
[13:31] <ravage> and let me know when its done
[13:31] <tomreyn> echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE
[13:31] <webchat52> Arrhhh yes it says 'wayland'....
[13:32] <tomreyn> bbl, good luck!
[13:32] <ravage> ok so after we install the driver try the xorg session after the reboot
[13:32] <ravage> \o tomreyn 🙂
[13:32] <ravage> after you removed all packages try: sudo apt install nvidia-driver-470
[13:34] <webchat52> ravage, purge done https://dpaste.com/3C35CB4N7
[13:35] <ravage> ok. install the driver
[13:36] <webchat52> Unfortunately, installation of the driver went bad : https://dpaste.com/DFT73CTNN
[13:37] <webchat52> I'm trying again, with 'export CC=/usr/bin/gcc-12' before the apt install
[13:38] <oerheks> some issues with a 2nd monitor can be fixed with pulling hdmi out and insert again.
[13:39] <webchat52> @@oerheks, yes I started with that but issues remained
[13:40] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[13:40] <ravage> did it install now with gcc12?
[13:40] <oerheks> webchat52, oke.
[13:41] <webchat52> Even with export gcc 12, it doesn't work ... https://dpaste.com/GHWTKE7CR
[13:42] <ravage> which card do you have there?
[13:42] <webchat52> nvidia build make.log : https://dpaste.com/9MZS28KWY
[13:43] <webchat52> My card is model    : GK208B [GeForce GT 710]
[13:43] <ravage> still used gcc 11 for the build
[13:44] <webchat52> "export CC=/usr/bin/gcc-12" was not the right thing to do before running apt install ?
[13:44] <ravage> does "update-alternatives --list gcc" output anything?
[13:45] <webchat52> It says : update-alternatives: error: no alternatives for gcc
[13:46] <ravage> and "gcc --version" shows 11?
[13:47] <ioria> webchat52, usually in these cases, i purge all and i restart from a clean slate
[13:47] <ravage> also does "gcc-12 --version" output something too?
[13:47] <ravage> ioria: we are doing that right now
[13:47] <ravage> or trying to
[13:48] <webchat52> Here's gcc versions : https://dpaste.com/6JSQGDWCV
[13:49] <ioria> ok, take care of '2 not fully installed' and 'previous failure.  Setting up libx11-6:i386'
[13:49] <ravage> thet should be fixed when we get the nvidia packages installed i hope
[13:49] <ravage> *that
[13:50] <ravage> webchat52: do "sudo ln -s -f /usr/bin/gcc-12 /usr/bin/gcc"
[13:50] <ravage> and see if your gcc output now shows version 12
[13:51] <webchat52> I did the 'ln' and now indeed gcc --version says '12'. Shall I apt install nvidia-470 again ?
[13:51] <ravage> yes
[13:53] <webchat52> apt install of nvidia 470 seem to have completed successfully
[13:53] <ravage> ok
[13:54] <webchat52> Shall I reboot, and to the gear icon thing to select X i.o. wayland ?
[13:54] <ravage> what does "sudo modprobe nvidia" show?
[13:54] <webchat52> Arrhhh : modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'nvidia': No such device
[13:55] <ioria> webchat52, can we see the output of apt install ?
[13:55] <ravage> try "sudo apt install --reinstall nvidia-driver-470-dkms"
[13:56] <ravage> yes the output would be helpful too
[13:56] <webchat52> Ok I'll try this sudo reinstall. Here's info about hardware as seen : https://dpaste.com/9UP3KLEHH
[13:57] <ravage> the ubuntu drivers command should in theory also install everything you need
[13:57] <ravage> as long as we get the module built and loaded we should be fine
[13:58] <webchat52> Here's the log of the last install . I'm now launching the reinstall
[13:58] <webchat52> https://dpaste.com/34VSF9QLS
[13:59] <webchat52> Hummm it says 'E: Unable to locate package nvidia-driver-470-dkms' Should I remove '-dkms' ?
[13:59] <ravage> ah no
[13:59] <ravage> should be ok
[13:59] <ravage> also it looks like it actually built the module
[14:00] <ravage> is there a nvidia.ko flle in /lib/modules/6.5.0-14-generic/updates/dkms/ ?
[14:00] <ravage> if yes try: sudo insmod /lib/modules/6.5.0-14-generic/updates/dkms/nvidia.ko
[14:02] <webchat52> In in /lib/modules/6.5.0-14-generic/updates/dkms/ I have 5 .ko files, one of which is nvidia.ko, but they are 10minutes old
[14:02] <lotuspsychje> there seem to be a few bugs around so it seems, bug #2049571
[14:02] -ubottu:#ubuntu- Bug 2049571 in nvidia-graphics-drivers-470 (Ubuntu) "module fails to compile nvidia-470.223.02 for kernel 6.5.0-14-generic (x86_64)" [Undecided, New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/2049571
[14:02] <ravage> may have been 10mins
[14:02] <ravage> try to load it
[14:02] <frib> if I have a corrupt superblock on my raid 5 array, does that mean my data is unrecoverable?
[14:02] <lotuspsychje> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-470/+bugs?orderby=importance&start=0
[14:02] <lotuspsychje> few reports on latest
[14:03] <webchat52> ravage, how can I load it exactly ?
[14:03] <frib> my BIOS was not auto booting my OS disk with ubuntu so I used BIOS auto recovery (said the GPT header was corrupt), now my raid array is dead
[14:03] <ravage> webchat52: sudo insmod /lib/modules/6.5.0-14-generic/updates/dkms/nvidia.ko
[14:04] <webchat52> insmod: ERROR: could not insert module /lib/modules/6.5.0-14-generic/updates/dkms/nvidia.ko: No such device
[14:04] <ravage> huh. but /lib/modules/6.5.0-14-generic/updates/dkms/nvidia.ko exists?
[14:05] <webchat52> Yes it does https://dpaste.com/HCENHMUE6
[14:05] <ravage> can you show the last lines of: sudo dmesg
[14:05] <ravage> that look relevant to loading the module
[14:06] <webchat52> Last lines are https://dpaste.com/G4H4XZ6ZG
[14:07] <ravage> oh ok
[14:07] <ravage> a reboot may just fix that
[14:07] <ravage> try it and come back 🙂
[14:07] <ravage> also if you get to the login do the gear thing
[14:08] <webchat52> Ok I reboot, thanks so much ravage for your help
[14:10] <lotuspsychje> crosses fingers
[14:11] <webchat52> Just rebooted and everything is back to normal !! my 34' screen 3440x1440 is properly detected and used ! Thank you so much guys, especially ravage
[14:11] <ravage> \o/
[14:11] <ravage> great
[14:11] <lotuspsychje> !cookie | ravage
[14:11] <ravage> nom nom
[14:12] <webchat52> Though, I didn't find the gear icon thing to avoid wayland. Will google to learn how to do this exactly.
[14:12] <oerheks> !yay
[14:12] <lotuspsychje> wayland + nvidia is still a work in progress webchat52
[14:14] <ravage> as long as your system works its fine
[14:14] <ravage> but i would not recommend wayland with nvidia 🙂
[14:14] <ravage> it may even auto switch to xorg
[14:14] <ravage> but im not sure. you can check the command again
[14:14] <ravage> echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE
[14:26] <militantorc> does depmod usually take some time
[14:30] <webchat52> (I had to do a break) yes, $XDG_SESSION_TYPE now says X11
[14:32] <webchat52> Am a bit worried by the 'sudo ln -s -f /usr/bin/gcc-12 /usr/bin/gcc' that I did a few minutes ago. Any unwanted future side effect ? should I revert this ?
[14:33] <webchat52> Not sure I understood the 'cookie' things in the last posts, but if i can do something to show my reconnaissance, i'll comply eagerly
[14:43] <ravage> It should not affect your normal system operations 
[14:43] <ravage> And I hope future updates will just work this way
[15:49] <PeGaSuS> sorry for the "off topic" but this is EXACTLY why I love Ubuntu and its community. it's rare that I don't find an answer or a fix to something that went sideways :)
[15:50] <PeGaSuS> you guys are just awesome and do an excellent job helping. congrats!
[15:53] <fweht> https://linuxiac.com/installing-vanilla-gnome-on-ubuntu-22-04-lts/ is this still the same process for ubuntu 24.04?
[16:14] <tomreyn> ravage: i think the 'alternatives' pointer for gcc is just "cc" (at least it is on debian).
[16:14] <tomreyn> thanks for helping out there.
[16:15] <tomreyn> militantorc: yes, *some* time (seconds, a minute or two on slow systems) is normal.
[16:16] <tomreyn> !next | fweht
[16:16] <fweht> tomreyn: thanks!
[16:16] <tomreyn> you're welcome
[16:17] <akik> is ubuntu planning on getting rid of xorg like fedora?
[16:18] <tomreyn> frib: RAID-5 is not very failsafe, the more disks you add the better your chances for data loss (but you'll have backups, so...)
[16:21] <tomreyn> choose a RAID level with mirroring for increased reliability. your choice pointed into the opposite direction - accepting lower data loss protection for increased performance.
[16:22] <Nitrigaur> Ubuntu 23.10, LibreOffice 24.2.0.3 (Canonical Snap): LibreOffice cannot find my installed JRE. Could this be because this snap does not have permission to access the /usr directory (all JRE's on my system are found in a subdir. of /usr)
[16:23] <rbox> Nitrigaur: yes
[16:24] <Nitrigaur> rbox, in other words: This is a bug of the snap package of LibreOffice?
[16:25] <rbox> i don't know if i'd call it a bug
[16:27] <Nitrigaur> rbox, It's part of a security restriction for this snap, but this makes LibreOffice Base utterly unusuable since just about any function in that part of LO requires access to a JRE.
[16:35] <Nitrigaur> rbox, Am I missing some alternative bind mount, a hidden path or something similar?
[16:36] <rbox> huh?
[16:38] <Nitrigaur> rbox, I'm curious how you would call this issue, if not a bug.
[16:38] <rbox> somethign that you feel is wrong
[16:40] <Nitrigaur> rbox, Surely you don't think that the inability to use any JRE-connected functions within the LibreOffice snap is by design?
[16:40] <rbox> i dont know
[16:41] <rbox> i use neither snaps nor libreoffice base
[16:43] <ioria> Nitrigaur, 'snap connections libreoffice'   tells something pertaining ?
[16:43] <Nitrigaur> rbox, ah, you use Ubuntu without snaps? That's increasingly hard to do nowadays. In that case: Sorry for querying you so intensively :-)
[16:43] <rbox> is it? lol
[16:44] <Nitrigaur> ioria, I can see the following connections to this snap: https://dpaste.com/8DYFXJDFC
[16:50] <militantorc> tomreyn, feels about 10-30 s here
[16:50] <tomreyn> militantorc: good, so your is not that slow
[16:50] <militantorc> thank god
[16:54] <tomreyn> militantorc: if you'd like to speed it up more, reduce the number of kernel headers (and possibly, images) you have installed.
[16:54] <ioria> Nitrigaur, you can try to remove and reinstall with the --classic option
[16:59] <Nitrigaur> ioria, I have already installed the classic version as well. It's currently at LO version 7.4.6.1 and the Base component of that version proves to be quite unstable, frequently losing connection to a local HSQL Database. That's what made me curious about the latest version, but if I cannot even view the Table Overview without running into a dialogue stating that it can't any JRE on my system, that's even worse :-)
[17:00] <ioria> ok, but snap ver is 24.2.0.3
[17:01] <tomreyn> you are misinterpreting the meaning of the "--classic" option to the "snap" command
[17:02] <tomreyn> it disables isolation / confinement, does not ahcnge which versionis installed
[17:02] <tomreyn> s/ahcnge/change/
[17:02] <Nitrigaur> tomreyn, my apologies, I'm a bit new to snap and I interpreted this as using the .deb-package instead of the snap
[17:02] <ioria> nope
[17:03] <ioria> sudo snap remove libreoffice  ; sudo snap install libreoffice --classic
[17:04] <ioria> you can keep both (deb, snap); but need to use 'snap run'
[17:05] <Nitrigaur> tomreyn, fair enough, but the default way to run it uses confinement for a reason, which makes me believe that currently that Snap has to many restrictions enforced in the default way to run it. That looks like a bug to me.
[17:05] <Nitrigaur> ioria, thank you for all the useful hints :-)
[17:05] <tomreyn> Nitrigaur: if there's a scenario you can describe (in a bug rpoert) which makes it obvious how the average user is affected by lack of a java runtime when using one of the libreoffice applications with the current snap (and ubuntu's default JDK package), that should make a good bug report in my opinion.
[17:05] <tomreyn> *bug report
[17:05] <Nitrigaur> I've got to run now. My girlfriend is pulling at me to cook ;-)
[17:06] <tomreyn> you can file it later
[17:06] <Nitrigaur> tomreyn, I have already posted a bug report, but I was just double checking here:
[17:06] <Nitrigaur> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/2052457
[17:06] -ubottu:#ubuntu- Launchpad bug 2052457 in libreoffice (Ubuntu) "libreoffice latest version not detecting my java installation" [Undecided, Confirmed]
[17:07] <Nitrigaur> I hope the quality is up to snuff, but I got to run now :-)
[17:07] <tomreyn> there are two bug trackers for the snap. some links point to launchpad with an added tag of 'snap', others to the github project which also has an issue tracker enabled.
[17:07] <Nitrigaur> Thanks again ioria, tomreyn
[17:07] <ioria> Nitrigaur, ok
[17:08] <oerheks> likely the snap uses its packaged openjdk, alternative is  ppa:libreoffice/ppa with 4:7.6.5-0ubuntu0.22.04.1~lo1 for Jammy
[17:35] <pydev> hello
[17:36] <pydev> i have a very very strange problem...i have fiber at home and i go around 800-900 Mbps, from few days i stuck at 100 mbps... i thought i was a problem with my internet provider, but it is not.. when i see my connection details i see 100 Mbps
[17:36] <pydev> i think there was an update that reduced it
[17:37] <pydev> i found this https://askubuntu.com/questions/1398448/ethernet-internet-speed-stuck-at-100-mbps-for-gigabit-connection-ubuntu-20-04
[17:37] <rbox> sounds like a hardware problem
[17:37] <pydev> but it is 2022
[17:37] <pydev> rbox no because when i run ip addr | grep qlen
[17:37] <pydev> 1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000
[17:37] <pydev> 2: eno1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc fq_codel state UP group default qlen 1000
[17:38] <pydev> 1000 <<
[17:38] <rbox> that has nothing to do with the speed
[17:38] <oerheks> try to reboot the modem/router? that often fixes strange connection issues
[17:39] <pydev> oerheks, it is not a problem with procider or modem because if i connect to wifi with a very cheap smartphone i go around 260Mbps
[17:39] <pydev> it is really not possibile that wired is slower than wife
[17:39] <pydev> wifi
[17:40] <oerheks> oke, but the cable connection is a different part, drop the lease
[17:43] <pydev> maybe it is not the problem because that post is old : https://askubuntu.com/questions/1398448/ethernet-internet-speed-stuck-at-100-mbps-for-gigabit-connection-ubuntu-20-04
[17:43] <pydev> i tried it
[17:43] <pydev> now reboot
[17:45] <pydev> hello again
[17:45] <pydev> no, it did not fix the prolem
[17:48] <pydev> funny thing is that i see 1Gb from modem to switch ( i am using a fritxboz)
[17:48] <pydev> ok  so now what can i do?
[17:48] <rbox> sounds like a hardawre problem
[17:48] <pydev> motherboard? switch ?
[17:48] <pydev> i try to bypass the switch
[17:51] <pydev> OMG!!!! the switch has a problem
[17:51] <pydev> i bypassed it and now i go 565Mbps
[17:51] <pydev> how is that possible?
[17:51] <AlexC> weak hardware
[17:52] <pydev> i mean...if a switch does not work...it should stop working!!
[17:53] <pydev> try changing the port ...to check if the first one is broke or the others too
[17:53] <Guest11> Are restricted extras not included in 22.04 and i have to install it my self ? Is it only possible in terminal since i cannot find it else where ? Why is ubuntu canonical not show up on 22.04.4 ?
[17:54] <tomreyn> Guest11: what is not working as expected, what's the expectation?
[17:57] <pydev1> nothing to do for some reason the port 1 is running at 100Mbpsd
[17:57] <pydev1> it is a tlink 5 port switch
[18:01] <pydev1> what small switch should i buy?
[18:01] <pydev1> d-link?
[18:01] <pydev1> netgear?
[18:01] <pydev1> i really need a small switch 5 ports max
[18:02] <tomreyn> onme that works. this is beyond ubuntu support.
[18:02] <Guest11> tomreyn: I am looking for answers and not yet more questions.
[18:03] <Guest11> A function in Ubuntu beyond ubuntu support ?
[18:09] <tomreyn> Guest11: i was trying to help you find the best solution for your scenario. maybe start here: https://packages.ubuntu.com/jammy/ubuntu-restricted-extras shows that this meta package is available in the "multiverse" section (only)
[18:37] <frib> when I try to run winecfg it tells me bash: /usr/local/bin/winecfg: No such file or directory -- same thing happens for wine64
[18:42] <rbox> if its picking up somethign in /usr/local sounds like you screwd somethign up good
[18:42] <rbox> nothing should be there unless you go out of your way to put it there
[18:45] <ioria> frib, wine64 winecfg  (or wine winecfg)   it's the same ?
[18:47] <frib> ioria, this is what I did -I came across a post that said it could be resolved by manually installing unmet dependences recrusively, -I tried that -It made me uninstall nginx -I uninstalled nginx -I manually installed all the unmet dependencies for wine32 and wine64 and then installed both of them
[18:47] <frib> now when I run wine32 or wine64 there are no strange messages like no such file or dir
[18:47] <frib> But I still cannot install Sketchup in wine64
[18:49] <frib> and when I try to, it says 1) it looks like wine32 is missing, you should install it. 2) SketchUpStudio-2023-1-340-117.exe" not supported on this system
[18:49] <frib> even though wine32 is installed
[18:51] <ioria> no idea sorry, bu sounds like a dog breakfast recipe
[18:51] <frib> good thing I'm hungry :)
[18:52] <frib> What will I do now hmm
[18:52] <frib> Native windows~!
[19:09] <hal> ?
[19:13] <Guest16> Hi, there is an interesting issue, after reboot, the entry of /home disappear from /etc/fstab and /etc/crypttab, some insight?
[19:21] <tomreyn> Guest16: those are static files, they don't edit themselves. maybe you set up something which edits them?
[19:23] <Guest16> Yes, I append the entry for the directory I encrypted, like /etc, /var, /home, after reboot, /etc and /var entries are still there, /home entry is gone
[19:27] <tomreyn> sounds like your script is to be blamed then (unless you have other automation in place to edit these files)
[19:27] <Guest16> Sorry, please elaborate?
[19:28] <Guest16> Before reboot, all entries for /etc, /var, and /home are there
[19:28] <Guest16> in /etc/fstab and /etc/crypttab
[19:29] <tomreyn> compare it to a fresh ubuntu install - it won't happen there
[19:40] <rfm> Guest16, something I've done in desperation in similar situations is to get the files right, then mark then immutable with :'sudo chattr +i /etc/fstab /etc/crypttab', then reboot.
[19:41] <rfm> Guest16, the hope is that an error will show up (maybe in syslog, maybe as a failed systemd unit) so you can track it down.
[19:42] <rfm> Guest16, it's important to turn the immutable attribute off (chattr -i ..) else it will drive you nuts in the future when you can't change the file..
[19:47] <eawfaw> What is the easiest way to free some disk space (e.g.: delete unused packages)?
[19:49] <rbox> eawfaw: delete used packages...
[19:51] <rfm> eawfaw, the first thing to do is find out what is eating the disk space (I like ncdu for this).  Then you can take the appropriate action..
[19:55] <eawfaw> it seems snaps take a big chunk of it, and it seems some apps have several versions
[19:55] <eawfaw> Is it possible to delete the old versions and keep the latest version in an easy way?
[20:00] <rfm> eawfaw, here's a askubuntu that describes how to get rid of old versions: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1386455/can-i-remove-the-older-revision-package-of-duplicated-snap-packages
[20:01] <rfm> eawfaw, but it looks like some work, and the packages will undoubtably change again in the future so it will grow back to the past-version limit .
[20:03] <eawfaw> thanks

[21:30] <Kangarooo> I think Kubuntu on laptop lid closed isnt going to sleep. How to check it if its true?
[21:32] <bprompt> Kangarooo: what do you mean by "sleep"?
[21:33] <jeremy31> Suspend to RAM?
[21:33] <Kangarooo> @bprompt start menu- power, sleep works, but in settings i have set laptop lid closing to be sleep and it looks like not working
[21:34] <Kangarooo> i saw that sleep battery went out anyways in few days, but on windows it was holding for week even.
[21:34] <Kangarooo> so maybe sleep is not working @jeremy31
[21:35] <bprompt> jeremy31: hmmm I think it goes to suspend, well, the screen blanks out
[21:37] <bprompt> Kangarooo: hmmm the "power" options usually are handled by the ACPI modules from last I checked, and that can change from videocard model to videocard model, so it may not be working for your model
[21:38] <Kangarooo> how can i test if laptop lid closed sleep work?
[21:39] <Kangarooo> i want to have it sleep for even week
[21:43] <bprompt> Kangarooo: hmmm dunno, hmmmm my understanding is that what I get is "suspend", but I think on suspend,  you can customized which components aren't running and which are, and that may have affected its performance
[21:43] <bprompt> that said, not that I ever use it
[21:48] <Kangarooo> New question- how to report bug about kubuntu wifi drivers?
[21:48] <jeremy31> Kangarooo: What is wrong with wifi?
