| ali1234 | why doesn't my CPU support VT-x any more after installing 24.04? | 00:04 |
|---|---|---|
| ali1234 | it worked fine in 23.04 | 00:04 |
| ali1234 | i have a i7-6700 (skylake) | 00:04 |
| ravage | check your bios | 00:04 |
| ali1234 | VT-x is enabled in the bios | 00:04 |
| ali1234 | the lags are missing from /proc/cpuinfo | 00:04 |
| ali1234 | *flags | 00:04 |
| ravage | and you actually checked the bios? | 00:05 |
| ali1234 | unless the ubuntu installer has the ability to overwrite bios settings, then it is enabled. but i will check it, just for you | 00:05 |
| ali1234 | it was disabled | 00:10 |
| ali1234 | very odd considering i was using it right before i installed 24.04 | 00:10 |
| ali1234 | which was yesterday | 00:11 |
| ravage | you're welcome | 00:11 |
| ali1234 | hmm i've got that audio popping issue again | 00:12 |
| peacefulman | anyone have an issue with xfreerdp keep connecting in ubuntu 22.04? | 01:07 |
| peacefulman | disconnecting rather | 01:07 |
| ravage | Never had a problem with that. But now on 24.04 | 01:08 |
| peacefulman | I wonder if it's because I'm using the multimonitor feature | 01:08 |
| peacefulman | because it works fine on my laptop on another distro | 01:09 |
| * peacefulman goes to test it out | 01:09 | |
| peacefulman | its consistent at disconnecting, has been doing this for a few weeks now | 01:09 |

| BluesKaj | Hi all | 13:14 |
| Tingo | BluesKaj: Hi, Question ? | 13:26 |
| BluesKaj | Hi Tingo, not atm, do you? | 13:30 |
| windows | I've just added a Crucial P3 Plus NVMe to my system, Every time I use rsync or cp - my system locks up after 20 minutes. Is there a way to stop this? why does linux freeze when using rsync or cp with a Crucial P3 Plus NVMe? | 13:46 |
| cbreak | is it a hardware problem? | 13:47 |
| cbreak | does it only "lock up" if you write to that new device, or also if you only read, or use some other device only? | 13:48 |
| windows | cbreak, I ran a memtest86 and it said my memory has zero defects | 13:48 |
| cbreak | hmm... that will only check RAM, not the crucial nvme | 13:49 |
| cbreak | you can try to look at the smart data of the new device with sudo smartctl -x /dev/devicenamehere | 13:49 |
| windows | also, when using apps that migrate data, I can move a few hundred GB without locking up. It just seems to be cp and rsync directly on the host - /media mount to / mount | 13:49 |
| JanC | what do you mean by "lock up"? | 13:51 |
| windows | freeze, frozen, keyboard and mouse unresponsive, and a while true `date` loop freezing too, to show me how long it takes before freezeing | 13:52 |
| JanC | can you still switch to a different console with e.g. Ctrl+Alt+F4 ? | 13:53 |
| JanC | and did you check the logs for anything useful just before the freeze? | 13:54 |
| windows | smartctl result: https://bpa.st/7OCQ | 13:54 |
| windows | JanC yes, https://bpa.st/7KSA is the journalctl data | 13:57 |
| cbreak | windows: looks like the device already found some errors | 13:57 |
| windows | cbreak, you mean the "Error Information Log Entries: 6" | 13:59 |
| cbreak | yes. No idea how critical that is | 14:00 |
| windows | sure. thanks, I'll RMA the NVMe back then. | 14:00 |
| cbreak | you can initiate a smart self-test with smartctl -t offline | 14:01 |
| cbreak | and after some time the result should show up in smartctl -x | 14:01 |
| JanC | maybe check if there are firmware upgrades for your motherboard & the NVME drive | 14:02 |
| windows | I've checked. At this time there are no firmware updates for the Crucial P3 Plus | 14:03 |
| JanC | and your motherboard? | 14:03 |
| windows | yup, updated all the firmware for the mobo etc | 14:03 |
| cbreak | windows: since the error is in the nvme log and not the smart section, it might just be a transient communication error? Not sure. A smart selftest might tell you more. | 14:04 |
| JanC | in that case maybe replace it indeed | 14:04 |
| windows | I did receive those popups, clicked okay, etc, rebooted after downloads and installs | 14:04 |
| cbreak | are you sure the drive is properly seated / cooled? | 14:04 |
| windows | it's new - less than a week old and the Crucial P3 Plus line itself too is quite new | 14:04 |
| JanC | maybe try to remove the drive & fit it back in | 14:05 |
| windows | I've swapped the drive into a caddie and out again, same behavior | 14:05 |
| windows | freeze happens somewhere between 20 and 50 minutes, both for an rsync and a cp | 14:06 |
| JanC | it really sounds like a hardware issue with the drive then | 14:06 |
| windows | Personally I was leaning towards a hardware issue myself, but good to run a few suggested commands to show the issues | 14:06 |
| windows | thanks cbreak, thanks JanC for your pointed, I'll RMA it ASAP | 14:06 |
| windows | *pointers | 14:07 |
| JanC | it _could_ also be a software (firmware) issue as it's a fairly new line as you say, but that's their problem to solve then :) | 14:10 |
| JanC | windows: did you also try with a different kernel (e.g. booted from a live image) just to test? | 14:11 |

| lurtz | im not sure, but i would try sudo apt clean | 19:45 |
| lurtz | and then remove the file it tries to unpack | 19:45 |
| lurtz | and that text file it tries to overwrite | 19:45 |
| lurtz | and then run sudo apt --fix-broken install again | 19:46 |
| jaco | pls how do i remove the file | 19:46 |
| jaco | plss give me step by step guide | 19:47 |
| lurtz | rm /path/to/file | 19:47 |
| lurtz | the full path, with the including extended ending of the file, such as .txt or .deb | 19:47 |
| jaco | so u mean i should run "rm /path/to/file" | 19:48 |
| jaco | hi lurtz | 19:49 |
| lurtz | it's better if you use pastebin.com | 19:49 |
| lurtz | and post your output there instead of printscreens | 19:50 |
| lurtz | it's easier to copy and paste from that :P | 19:50 |
| bprompt | jaco: in essence just doing -> sudo apt clean <- will do away witth the .deb files downloaded, you don't have to track their path | 19:51 |
| jaco | bprompt: sudo apt clean does not run in terminal | 19:54 |
| bprompt | jaco: ok, then use the old -> sudo apt-get clean ; <- :) | 19:54 |
| bprompt | jaco: same thing pretty much, on newer versions apt-get has bein aliased to just "apt" | 19:55 |
| lurtz | i have setup privoxy on my router (RT-AX86U) and i want to route the traffic from privoxy over my wireguard client, is this possible through iptables? and if so, how do i do it? :D | 19:55 |
| jaco | sudo apt-get clean ; <- :) its also not working | 19:56 |
| bprompt | ahemm | 19:56 |
| bprompt | jaco: of course I meant just -> sudo apt-get clean | 19:56 |
| bprompt | lurtz: dunno, but I'd think the guys at #wireguard may have better ideas, or you can also try the guys at #ubuntu-server | 19:58 |

| Doc-Saintly | Using Linux Kernel 6.5.0-1023-oem on new hardware, facing issues with system freezing whenever there's lots of storage read/writes. I see this in dmesg output: nvme nvme0: I/O 97 QID 1 timeout, completion polled . Any ideas on where to start? | 21:49 |

| rbox | lol | 21:56 |
| oerheks | new hardware, check for a bios update? | 21:59 |
| tomreyn | Doc-Saintly: i would try the following: firmware update using fwupdtool (sudo fwupdtool get-devices && sudo fwupdtool update DEVICENAME), thermal issues (check temperatures on sensors, using sensors-detect + sensors), make sure the power supply provides sufficient power, test whether it happens with a non oem kernel, search the web for the specific nvme model and this error message (without "97") on google. | 21:59 |
| Doc-Saintly | tomreyn: thanks. I've done the firmware check (no updates available), using OEM power supply, and the issue is worse with the standard kernel. | 22:07 |
| Doc-Saintly | All hits I find are about the drive completeing dropping out (and being resolved by adjusting it to never sleep, which I've also done). All posts I've found with this timeout issue have no responses or solutions given :( | 22:07 |
| tomreyn | which hardware are we talking about? | 22:07 |
| Doc-Saintly | it's a new Intel 7-155H based laptop. | 22:08 |
| tomreyn | and the nvme? | 22:08 |
| Doc-Saintly | Samsung NVME | 22:08 |
| Doc-Saintly | looking for a specific model number. but it's new. | 22:09 |
| tomreyn | why does it need the oem kernel? did you get an installation cd / iso with it? | 22:09 |
| Doc-Saintly | tomreyn: It's an MSI laptop, and they don't directly support Linux. Doing a fresh install worked OK but had some slowness and a few more dmesg errors. Upgrading to the OEM kernel has the graphics and wireless actually working | 22:10 |
| tomreyn | did it come with this nvme installed (as in hardware)? | 22:11 |
| Doc-Saintly | yes | 22:11 |
| tomreyn | which ubuntu release are you using? | 22:11 |
| Doc-Saintly | I'm using Mint, which is based on Ubuntu 22. And I found the SSD (I think) https://www.harddrivebenchmark.net/hdd.php?hdd=NVMe%20SAMSUNG%20MZVL41T0HBLB-00BTW | 22:12 |

Please use their dedicated support venues, such as: Linux Mint: #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org, Pop!_OS: https://support.system76.com/ , Kali Linux: #kali-linux on irc.oftc.net, LXLE: https://lxle.net/support-options/ | 22:12 |
| leftyfb | Doc-Saintly: Mint is loosely based on ubuntu. It is not Ubuntu and cannot be supported here | 22:13 |
| Doc-Saintly | heh. Yep, was waiting for that to happen. Even though we're all quite aware it's going to be the same hardware issue with the kernel. :shrug: oh well, thanks anyway | 22:13 |
| leftyfb | It's not | 22:13 |
| Doc-Saintly | leftyfb: I'll take you up for a bet on that :) | 22:13 |
| leftyfb | it's not the same kernel nor is the same package versions | 22:13 |
| Doc-Saintly | $50 if I find the issue and it would have happened on Ubuntu just the same as on Mint? | 22:14 |
| tomreyn | the point is that there are regularly differences between ubuntu and mint. they may not get in the way here, or they may. we won't know unless you use ubuntu. and it's sure frustrating to help out someone for hours to finally learn they've run into this exact issue because of not using ubuntu. which has happened here before, and not just once. | 22:16 |
| leftyfb | Doc-Saintly: good luck. I hope #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org is able to help you. If you decide to run Ubuntu at some point, we'll be here and happy to help you | 22:16 |
| Doc-Saintly | leftyfb: honestly, I stopped running ubuntu a while ago because of the default unity UI and then snap packages XD | 22:16 |
| leftyfb | Doc-Saintly: Unity is no longer the default and there's nothing wrong with snap packages. But either way, good luck with Mint | 22:17 |
| yukenjie | what about Ubuntu Pro? | 22:17 |
| leftyfb | yukenjie: what about it? | 22:17 |
| Doc-Saintly | tomreyn: I can understand many cases where it'd be impossible to support mint when the issue is software packages and configurations; but when it's brand new hardware, most versions of Linux face the same issues, dealing with the same open source drivers that are missing something due to hardware doing weird things. | 22:18 |
| oerheks | most posts i read about nvme I/O QID timeout, completion polled : is bad power supply | 22:18 |
| Doc-Saintly | anyway, best of luck to you all :) | 22:18 |
| yukenjie | i mean for the security reason vs Ubuntu. i Just subscribe it | 22:18 |
| oerheks | reseat the NVME sometimes fixes things too | 22:18 |
| Doc-Saintly | oerheks: thanks, but it's a brand new computer, everything worked fine on windows before wiping, so I doubt it's a connectivity issue. But thanks for trying. | 22:19 |
| tayne | Hi, I'm yet another user that foolishly ran a do-release-upgrade with the -d flag and broke my system. I haven't rebooted the machine since I ran the command. Initially, I wasn't able to run many commands, including sudo, because libssl and libcrypto went away, but I was able to restore the .so's from a backup by privilege escalating with Docker and now I have root again. If at all possible I'd really prefer to untangle my | 22:32 |
| tayne | packages somehow rather than do a clean install. This is where I'm at currently: what happens when I try to run apt --fix-broken install https://bpa.st/BZWA | 22:32 |
| oerheks | boot into an older kernel, or reinstall with an usb 24.04 | 22:34 |
| tayne | I'm already booted into an older kernel, since I never rebooted after running the upgrade | 22:34 |
| tomreyn | tayne: i'd keep both old and new apt sources configured initially, and make sure sections are identical. and, of course, run 'apt update' first of all. | 22:57 |
| tomreyn | i'm not going to be able to help you fix this one, though. | 22:57 |

| eelstrebor | firefox is really making me mad - i removed the snap version and installed the ppa version and now vlc doesn't get launched anymore. what a piece of junk (to put it mildly). | 23:54 |
| xangua | What does VLC has to do with Firefox? | 23:55 |
| oerheks | tons of videoplayers | 23:55 |
| oerheks | removed snapd? and vlc is a snap too? | 23:55 |
| leftyfb | eelstrebor: remove the ppa package and reinstall the snap | 23:57 |
| vortexx | tayne: I can't help you recover... but next time... use a filesystem that can do snapshots, preferably automatic snapshots every time you add or remove a snapshot. And do a backup of the package list, just in case. I'm not sure if apt-key still exists, but there's this: https://askubuntu.com/questions/9135/how-to-backup-settings-and-list-of-installed-packages | 23:58 |
| cbreak | vlc works just fine without snap / firefox | 23:58 |
| vortexx | s/remove a snapshot/remove a package | 23:58 |
| eelstrebor | looks like it's a permissions issue - i chmod the downloaded file to 777 and now i can manually launch it | 23:58 |
| leftyfb | downloaded file? | 23:59 |
| cbreak | what permission did it have before? | 23:59 |
