[04:09] <mihael> I'm running ubuntu 18 on an ec2 instance. And suddenly, the instance becomes unreachable with status check: (1/2). What's the best way to search for any Memory/CPU error that might have caused it?
[04:46] <plastikman> possible that the underlying hardware has issue in aws
[04:47] <plastikman> stop/start the instance in the console
[04:49] <plastikman> is you have sar running you can use the sar tool to look at historical CPU/Memory/Network
[08:22] <kjetilho> atop is like sar on steroid
[08:23] <kjetilho> but it has to be installed to gather data before the crash/hang.  so look at journalctl if there are any hints from before the last boot

[11:01] <itai> Hi, I cannot install ffmpeg on ubuntu due to broken packages https://pastebin.com/RzhyTtNE
[11:02] <itai> Apparently I have mixed multiple repositories
[11:02] <itai> How can I solve this?
[11:59] <JonTheNiceGuy> Hi :) I'm having a constant issue with my (cheap) bluetooth headphones on Ubuntu 22.04 where it connects initially fine, but on device re-connection it doesn't establish the audio connection until I disconnect and reconnect it. I've posted about my issue on AskUbuntu but I don't know how to get more help on it. The post is here:
[11:59] <JonTheNiceGuy> https://askubuntu.com/questions/1507596/bluetooth-audio-not-working-after-reconnection I'm just going into a call but I'm happy to give any information to move the thread along. I have pipewire installed, if that helps?
[12:04] <Quark> JonTheNiceGuy: have you considered a wired headphone, or a more expensive Bluetooth one? :-D Kidding though, and sorry I don't have an answer.
[12:05] <Quark> I had had issues with Bluetooth headphones in just about any OS.
[12:06] <JonTheNiceGuy> lol
[12:24] <ThatGalAlex195> Is this channel for Ubuntu Server too?

[15:26] <Bergerag> Helloy , can u tell me is there any reason why not to enable ipv6 on ovpnserver ?
[15:28] <shadow255> Bergerag: vpn may be considered somewhat pointless on ipv6 since network address translations aren't needed
[15:30] <kjetilho> huh?  how is that related at all?
[15:31] <kjetilho> VPN is used to secure traffic between yourself and some other system, typically work servers
[15:31] <Bergerag> yes something like that i was thinking too
[15:31] <Bergerag> so ipv6 should be safe and secure by itself ?
[15:31] <leftyfb> Bergerag: if you're asking, you don't need it
[15:31] <Bergerag> without the vpn
[15:32] <kjetilho> my VPN tunnel (wireguard) runs over IPv6 (and it provides a new IPv6 address for my node)
[15:32] <leftyfb> keep it simple, don't enable ipv6
[15:32] <Bergerag> yeah thats what they told me on the another channel too
[15:33] <kjetilho> if you disable IPv6, you are missing out on parts of the Internet
[15:33] <leftyfb> kjetilho: not really
[15:42] <OutOfService> hi!
[15:43] <lotuspsychje> welcome OutOfService
[15:49] <Bergerag> hmm kjetilho why missing parts of the internet without ipv6 ?

[19:29] <hendawg> hello
[19:57] <chonkin> I want to try to install the nvidia driver 550.54.14.   here is my current setup : https://dpaste.com/HWKUAL7LU
[20:05] <CosmicDJ> chonkin: you're heading into unsupported territory...
[20:07] <chonkin> CosmicDJ,    This is a work computer that has been lagging for months. After I compile in Simulink, the GUI elements lag so badly, the only way back in is to cold reboot the machine.   this became so routing, I worte a bash script to reboot the computer from the command line using qdbus.   I was in this channel previously, wherein I was advised to upgrade 20.02 to 22.04.   I have done so.  I have also upgraded to kernel  6.0.5 and  I have  HWE
[20:07] <chonkin> hardware enablement.   These (rather lengthy)  changes has not resolved the problem.
[20:09] <ldiamond> I've been having issues where my laptop's load goes up to 120 making the system completely unusable, requiring hard shut down. CPU didn't seem to be the issue but swap was 100% while memory wasnt.
[20:10] <chonkin> I have logged the computer's temperature readings ,  logged  the memory usage and swap file using watch on  free -h.   Logged the ps aux for CPU overutilization by an errant process.    I have purchased two NIC cards (currently sitting in a box a few feet away)  under the theory that the built-in ethernet was fritzing and the OS was waiting for it to do something.
[20:11] <chonkin> After compile, the machine is in a zombie lag state. I have closed matlab and simulink completely. disabled all ethernet connections and pulled the  RJ45 wire out the back of it.   The lag persisted after those.
[20:14] <chonkin> While it seems like I am typing a lo there, this is actually a short synopsis of the months of troubleshooting I have put this computer through to no avail
[20:15] <imi> ok so this script makes bash segault: https://termbin.com/vo0a -- is that a bug?
[20:17] <chonkin> `ubuntu-drivers devices`  does not show 550.54   https://dpaste.com/EX6WWBT5V
[20:17] <CosmicDJ> chonkin: there will be 545 in noble... https://packages.ubuntu.com/noble/nvidia-dkms-545
[20:18] <CosmicDJ> imi: last answer at https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/296641/segmentation-fault-when-calling-a-recursive-bash-function
[20:19] <chonkin> The reason for 550.54  is because of this in the release notes  "Fixed an issue that sometimes caused Wayland applications to run at less than one frame per second on Maxwell, Volta, and Pascal series GPUs."
[20:19] <CosmicDJ> chonkin: you're running wayland? that was already available on 20.02/22.04?
[20:20] <chonkin> CosmicDJ,    I'm not sure.  I have KDE plasma on this.  https://dpaste.com/HWKUAL7LU
[20:21] <leftyfb> chonkin: why not try xorg?
[20:27] <chonkin> leftyfb,    I'm happy to try that.  What drawbacks do you see in trying to change the display driver from 535 to 550?
[20:28] <leftyfb> chonkin: lack of support
[20:42] <chonkin> leftyfb okay the graphics platform reads "X11"
[21:08] <emojii> hi beutifull people
[21:08] <chonkin> does anyone here know what a  "kernel memory leak"  is and what that has to do with slabs?
[21:10] <emojii> somebody want to share a tech book link
[21:12] <leftyfb> emojii: do you have an ubuntu support question?
[21:19] <CosmicDJ> chonkin: the kernel shouldn't leak memory... and slabs are explained at https://www.kernel.org/doc/gorman/html/understand/understand011.html "Each cache maintains blocks of contiguous pages in memory called slabs which are carved up into small chunks for the data structures and objects the cache manages."
[21:22] <chonkin> CosmicDJ,   at the very worst (if this is not a graphics driver issue)  anothe rpossibilty is that a piece of software called Vivado is creating a memory leak, which persists as lagging long after the process has been killed or stopped
[21:23] <candlejack> Is it possible to configure snap to update applications at a set time every night?  I could configure systemd to run 'snap refresh' but if there's an official way to do it I'd prefer that
[21:42] <chonkin> If i want to change from an nvidia driver 535.161.07  to  linux-modules-nvidia-545-generis-hwe-22.04  ,  how do I go about that exactly?   Should i perform a "purge" first of the existing driver?
[21:43] <GrandPa-G> I am looking for idea how to display up to 8 videos on same screen such that with one, all screen, with 2, split screen, etc. The videos may not start at same time. It will actually be done in python on a raspberry, but any suggestions might help
[22:15] <jaz_> hello
[22:17] <jaz_> how can i choose the right nividiax  gtx 1050
[22:17] <jaz_> right driver i mean
[22:19] <jeremy31> jaz_: Have you checked the driver manager in software & updates?
[22:20] <jaz_> yes
[22:20] <jaz_> many drivers
[22:20] <jeremy31> jaz_: What does it show?
[22:21] <jaz_> properity
[22:21] <jaz_> properitery
[22:21] <jeremy31> version 535?
[22:21] <jaz_> yes
[22:21] <jaz_> tested
[22:22] <jaz_> it showed properitery tested
[22:22] <jeremy31> jaz_: What result from terminal for>  mokutil --sb
[22:23] <jaz_> secureboot enebled
[22:23] <jaz_> enabled
[22:23] <jeremy31> jaz_: Those Nvidia drivers won't load with Secure Boot enabled unless you use mokutil to sign them
[22:26] <jaz_> how ?
[22:28] <jaz_> if i turn off   secure boot frm the bios  , will it  work ?
[22:29] <jeremy31> jaz_: It should as then the kernel will allow the Nvidia driver to load
[22:31] <jaz_> thank you  for help gentle man
[22:47] <Bombo> hi
[22:47] <Bombo> i ran sudo pm-suspend, but there was an error (nvidia timeout), nothing is suspended, but the xorg, '(II) event1  - Power Button: device removed' i don't see anything on the screen but console, is there a way to wake up the xorg again?
[23:49] <ahc> I have a Seagate 2GB usb drive. It was a One Touch that I reformatted as ext4. Now it reads as 1 Partition of ext4, but MBR, Partitioning as Master Boot Record.
[23:50] <ahc> Worst is, it reads 120 GB — 20 GB free (83.6% full).  I'd like to re-format it. Get it showing more free space.
[23:51] <ahc> I guess I delete that MBR partition, select all and create a new partition, something not MBR. Any suggestions welcome.
[23:55] <sarnold> ahc: i'm a bit confused; is it 2gb or 120 gb or 100 gb? :)
[23:56] <mybalzitch> 210gb
[23:56] <ahc> Its 2TB, my bad.
[23:57] <ahc> 120 GB — 20 GB free (83.6% full) reads from Ubuntu Disks
[23:58] <ahc> I never liked that "One Touch" Windows formatting, so I tried to format it ext4. Didn't get that right.
[23:59] <sarnold> aha :) that's a much nicer disk, hehe :)
