| stevecoh1 | I am looking for a software program that would allow me to sync a local folder with my Google Drive account, analogously to the way that Dropbox works. You put something in dropbox and all computers, including my Ubuntu computer can access that folder in Google Drive as though it were on those systems. I hear mention of Google Drive for Desktop but that is a Windows thing. Google searches bring up random ideas from 5 or 6 years ago or | 00:49 |
| stevecoh1 | older. What is state of the art on this topic? Thanks. | 00:49 |
| toddc | stevecoh1: Nextcloud? | 00:51 |
| oerheks | on gnome, settings > accounts give google. | 00:51 |
| oerheks | even with 2fa, IIRC | 00:51 |
| oerheks | or you might need to go into google account settings > security > 3rd party apps | 00:53 |
| stevecoh1 | oerheks - just looked at that: "This will allow GNOME to: | 00:54 |

| oerheks | oh dear, when you delete all, and it syncs .. | 00:55 |
| stevecoh1 | oerheks - yeah | 00:56 |
| stevecoh1 | toddc - looking at nextcloud now | 00:56 |
| stevecoh1 | toddc - Nextcloud also looks like overkill. I'm just a retired geek with a few computers that need to share a few files. Linux, IPhone, Android Tablet, Windows. I am not looking for a collaboration solution for an organization. | 01:00 |
| stevecoh1 | Why ISN'T there a GoogleDrive For Desktop for Linux? | 01:01 |

| stevecoh1 | @ravage: I was just looking at ocamlfuse, and now that I look at your makeuseof article, I find that neither meets my use case. I DON"T want gnome to access my whole Google Drive. Rather, I want to store one of two files in a place (as with Dropbox) that can be accessed from several computers, one of which is Ubuntu. Dropbox works this way but limits me to three computers. I want a few more, without paying for a "corporate" solution. | 01:17 |

| deadrom | hi | 15:18 |
| deadrom | I need to send an encrypted 7zip to a Windows user who has the whatever-is-official 7zip for windows. now which bin from which packages ensures compat? There are 3 packages, 7zip, p7zip and p7zip-full and the descriptions are more or less the same, and man 7z and man 7za tell me one is more open, which I'd usually say is good but maybe that breaks compat so idk | 15:20 |
| deadrom | https://paste.debian.net/1325448/ and then you get this from the readme in the official downloaded package for linux. that's ridiculous. and people wonder why desktop linux gets mocked. | 15:26 |
| sixwheeledbeast | seems completely verbose to me, one is a fork. | 15:29 |
| SamuelMarks | With nothing runnning my CPU is hot. gnome-shell is taking >50% of CPU. How do I debug? | 15:32 |
| deadrom | the information is there, but I had to hunt it down. | 15:32 |
| SamuelMarks | deadrom: enjoy the hunt? | 15:33 |
| leftyfb | SamuelMarks: I would start by looking at any gnome extensions you have installed | 15:33 |
| SamuelMarks | I don't have any installed. I'm boring and use vanilla Ubuntu everywthing | 15:33 |
| leftyfb | SamuelMarks: and what happened yesterday when you created a new user and logged in as the new user? | 15:33 |
| SamuelMarks | Can I reset all its config? | 15:34 |
| SamuelMarks | leftyfb - no improvements yesterday | 15:34 |
| deadrom | SamuelMarks: I have a life? | 15:34 |
| leftyfb | deadrom: lets not | 15:34 |
| SamuelMarks | deadrom: oh no you took a life | 15:34 |
| SamuelMarks | find a mushroom quick | 15:34 |
| leftyfb | lets stay on topic please | 15:34 |
| leftyfb | SamuelMarks: when you logged in as the new user the CPU was still up? | 15:34 |
| SamuelMarks | yeah | 15:35 |
| leftyfb | SamuelMarks: which GPU? | 15:36 |
| SamuelMarks | oh that's interesting | 15:36 |
| SamuelMarks | checking my logs apparmor=DENIED operation=open profile=snap-update-ns.snap-store | 15:37 |
| SamuelMarks | leftyfb: Alienware Alienware m17 R5 AMD AMD Ryzen™ 9 6900HX with Radeon™ Graphics × 16 with 32GiB of RAM | 15:37 |
| leftyfb | maybe install/reinstall the recommended drivers for it using the drivers util | 15:38 |
| lotuspsychj3 | apparmor still has some bugs on noble SamuelMarks | 15:38 |
| SamuelMarks | lotuspsychj3: you think that's causing my CPU issues? | 15:38 |
| SamuelMarks | leftyfb: Is there a command for that? | 15:38 |
| lotuspsychj3 | i got amd too, but i dont have high cpu no | 15:38 |
| leftyfb | SamuelMarks: open the drivers util using your GUI will be the easiest | 15:39 |
| SamuelMarks | Also I remember some sort of vulkan driver for amd that might be better than rocm | 15:39 |
| SamuelMarks | considering rocm never works for me (actually it works on Windows; somehow) | 15:39 |
| SamuelMarks | "No proprietary drivers are in use" | 15:40 |
| leftyfb | ok, and does it give you options to choose one? | 15:40 |
| SamuelMarks | no | 15:40 |
| leftyfb | can you screenshot it? | 15:40 |
| SamuelMarks | "No additional drivers available." | 15:41 |
| leftyfb | SamuelMarks: are you sure you don't have your GPU disabled in the BIOS or something? | 15:42 |
| SamuelMarks | I'm sure | 15:42 |
| SamuelMarks | this is slower than my old 16.04 :( | 15:42 |
| lotuspsychj3 | SamuelMarks: with all the things you did, early upgrade to 24.04, messing with drivers,..maybe its a good idea to share your dmesg, and dpkg logs so the volunteers can see whats going on exactly | 15:43 |
| leftyfb | SamuelMarks: It's probably better to focus on troubleshooting and fixing the issue than spending time complaining about the issue we already know is happening | 15:43 |
| leftyfb | SamuelMarks: it's definitely sounding like a GPU (lack of proper drivers) issue | 15:44 |
| SamuelMarks | Ok so lots of these | 15:45 |
| SamuelMarks | apparmor="DENIED" operation="capable" class="cap" profile="/usr/lib/snapd/snap-confine" pid=6485 comm="snap-confine" capability=38 capname="perfmon" | 15:45 |
| bparker | I just boot with apparmor=0 | 15:45 |
| lotuspsychj3 | full dmesg in a paste please SamuelMarks | 15:45 |
| leftyfb | bparker: that's not the right solution | 15:45 |
| bparker | right is subjective IMO | 15:46 |
| leftyfb | especially since we don't have any prood that there's proper GPU drivers installed/being utilized | 15:46 |

| leftyfb | SamuelMarks: the entire thing please | 15:47 |
| SamuelMarks | lotuspsychj3: ok hold on let me upload | 15:47 |
| bparker | to me this is like saying switching from windows to linux isn't the right solution when something isn't working... I think _many_ people would argue against that, or at worst, 50/50 | 15:47 |
| leftyfb | SamuelMarks: sudo dmesg -T | nc termbin.com 9999 | 15:47 |
| leftyfb | bparker: can we help you with something? | 15:47 |
| bparker | and here comes the personal attacks | 15:47 |
| bparker | and "off-topic" | 15:47 |
| SamuelMarks | ok this probably doesn't have my passwords in plain-text :haha: https://termbin.com/edls | 15:48 |
| sixwheeledbeast | You could disable just the single apparmor rule, instead of disabling apparmor. | 15:48 |
| bparker | that's not the right solution | 15:49 |
| leftyfb | SamuelMarks: why/how are you running the 6.10 kernel? | 15:49 |
| bparker | /s | 15:49 |
| SamuelMarks | mainline; defaulted; forgot to switch to the older kernel | 15:49 |
| lotuspsychj3 | leftyfb: we asked him yesterday to boot back into, stock noble kernel | 15:49 |
| leftyfb | SamuelMarks: start with reverting back to a supported kernel | 15:50 |
| leftyfb | SamuelMarks: after doing that, repost your new dmesg | 15:50 |
| SamuelMarks | ok I'll disable apparmor also just in case | 15:51 |
| leftyfb | SamuelMarks: not nrcessary | 15:51 |
| leftyfb | the "errors" you are seeing are benign and not the cause of the problem | 15:51 |
| leftyfb | https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/Wskdt55d4w/ | 15:52 |
| leftyfb | I have the same messages in my logs. They are benign | 15:52 |
| leftyfb | anyone running stock ubuntu desktop that hasn't disabled snap is going to have the same messages | 15:53 |
| leftyfb | "disabled snap and/or apparmor" | 15:53 |

| SamuelMarks | I tried the new 24.04 rocm and it bricked my everything | 16:00 |

| SamuelMarks | leftyfb: ok it's running hold on `amdgpu-install` | 16:03 |
| SamuelMarks | Starbucks WiFi be nice | 16:04 |
| bparker | how fast is it | 16:05 |
| bparker | inb4 off-topic | 16:05 |
| SamuelMarks | bparker: 650 KiB/s | 16:06 |
| bparker | wow wish I had anywhere near that | 16:06 |
| * SamuelMarks can still program in his IDE of choice... `nano` | 16:07 | |
| leftyfb | SamuelMarks: did the drivers finish installing? | 16:07 |
| SamuelMarks | leftyfb: says 10 minutes remaining and my laptop is getting hot; might need to head home to charge | 16:15 |
| leftyfb | SamuelMarks: the drivers are still installing? | 16:15 |
| SamuelMarks | maybe I'll just work in a tty (non graphical one) | 16:15 |
| SamuelMarks | yeah | 16:15 |
| leftyfb | SamuelMarks: yeah, I think you have a broken install | 16:16 |
| tomreyn | not sure that's intentional / already known, but there's no mention of "amdgpu" in https://termbin.com/2h4r | 16:16 |
| leftyfb | yeah, that had me curious as well | 16:16 |
| leftyfb | 2024 Aug 04 11:42:08 <leftyfb>SamuelMarks: are you sure you don't have your GPU disabled in the BIOS or something? | 16:17 |
| leftyfb | gotta head out now | 16:17 |
| tomreyn | "workqueue: wait_rcu_exp_gp hogged CPU for >10000us 4 times, consider switching to WQ_UNBOUND" might be of worth looking into as well. but first get amdgpu working. the one which comes with ubuntu, if you ask me. | 16:18 |
| tomreyn | https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/core-api/workqueue.html | 16:19 |
| tomreyn | (for later) | 16:19 |
| SamuelMarks | Thanks leftyfb for the assist; I'll let you know | 16:20 |
| SamuelMarks | tomreyn: yeah; ahhh my battery gtg | 16:20 |
| tomreyn | bparker: apparmor is an essential ingredient to ubuntu - several other services and mechanisms (and not just snap) depend on it to provide isolation and permission restrictions. by disabling it, you are likely subjecting your system to security vulnerabilities that would not be present otherwise. that's a choice you are free to make, but i would second a position that disabling apparmor should not be presented as a solution to any issue here. | 16:29 |

| tomreyn | SamuelMarks: still no mention of amdgpu. did you post output from sudo lspci -knn (or similar) yet? | 16:55 |
| tomreyn | you have these lines in the early log (pcu device enumeration): https://paste.debian.net/plain/1325454 | 16:56 |
| tomreyn | *pci, not pcu | 16:56 |
| tomreyn | normally device 03:00.0 is the first gpu, but you also have one at 36:00, not sure what this is | 16:57 |

| tomreyn | okay, looks like you have two gpus then, and both are detected and drivers loaded for. your kernel log is just cut off. | 17:00 |
| tomreyn | i don't usually recommend pastebin.com, but it should allow 500 KB per post, so you may want to use that once. | 17:04 |

| tomreyn | oh you have the amd.com driver installed now, i see. | 17:23 |
| tomreyn | i don't know why lefty suggested this one to you, maybe he assumes that the 24.04 LTS kernel does not yet support your hardware, which may or may not be so. | 17:25 |
| tomreyn | but i won't support the amd.com one. | 17:25 |
| SamuelMarks | ok so I should remove things and try again? | 17:26 |
| SamuelMarks | 24.04 one was only released a few days ago so happy to try again; last time I did it downloaded 35GB | 17:26 |
| tomreyn | according to https://www.dell.com/support/home/en-uk/product-support/product/alienware-m17-r5-amd-gaming-laptop/drivers the latest bios version for your device is 1.16.1, but you have 1.17.0, which might mean this version was later pulled. | 17:26 |
| SamuelMarks | (i'm home now so should be fast to DL; but it bricked things last time) | 17:26 |
| SamuelMarks | tomreyn - ohhh | 17:27 |
| SamuelMarks | let me reboot to windows and see if the alienware update thing changes the bios version | 17:27 |
| SamuelMarks | ok it's updating something | 17:30 |
| tomreyn | https://linux-hardware.org/?view=computers&vendor=Alienware&model=m17+R5+AMD has hardware probes for Alienware m17 R5 AMD since may 2023, so i guess it should be supported by Ubuntu 24.04 LTS | 17:32 |
| tomreyn | sensors-detect should suggest loading the k10temp module if this doesn't happen automatically already. | 17:35 |
| SamuelMarks | tomreyn hmm | 17:37 |
| tomreyn | didn't you say you are running 24.04? are you running something else? | 17:37 |
| tomreyn | i noted the kernel is that of 24.04 | 17:37 |
| junyx | If I have some old phones and want to turn them into LAN servers does Ubuntu provide an ISO for that? | 17:37 |
| tomreyn | junyx: what hardware is this? | 17:38 |
| junyx | tomreyn I'd have to look. Its several old phones. Probably LG Stylo, Pixel 3, and others | 17:39 |
| SamuelMarks | tomreyn: hold on gotta reboot back to linux | 17:40 |
| tomreyn | junyx: so android phones. i see. you'll probably be limited to running android on them for the most part. a non-modified linux will probably not run on these. | 17:40 |
| junyx | tomreyn what kind of phones would run a non-modified linux? | 17:40 |
| tomreyn | probably none if very few. most will need customizations at least, but are still close to mainline. | 17:41 |
| junyx | I don't really need the phone capabilities. I just want to ssh into it and use it as a server | 17:41 |
| tomreyn | you probably need it to boot, though | 17:41 |
| junyx | Yes | 17:42 |
| junyx | The idea occurred for me because so many phones get thrown out every 2-3 years and they end up in a landfill. I was thinking if there is a solution out there for an OS that runs on them I could save mine from ending up there as well | 17:42 |
| tomreyn | there's ubuntu touch, which was kind of a sister project to ubuntu, but is no longer affiliated, i think | 17:43 |
| tomreyn | they also have a channel here, i think | 17:43 |
| tomreyn | !touch | 17:43 |
| ubottu | Information about the mobile port of the Ubuntu platform (formely Ubuntu Touch) for Phone and Tablet is available here: https://ubports.com/. Support and discussion in #ubports | 17:43 |
| junyx | Ok. I'll look into it thanks | 17:43 |
| tomreyn | https://tuxphones.com/best-linux-phones-buying-guide-2022/ is a bit outdated but you can get a better understanding of how compatible mainline linux and other options are to running on selected pieces of hardware | 17:44 |
| junyx | Thanks | 17:45 |
| Kermit83 | Today on Ubuntu Studio, a problem with sound from the jack port appeared. I couldn't solve it, so I reinstalled Ubuntu (also version 24.04). On the new installation, the problem persists - there's no sound from the jack port. Everything works fine on Windows :/. | 18:37 |
| BarnabasDK | Kermit83, if you don't give information on your system, and what errors you see - noone can help you | 18:42 |

| hid3 | Greetings everyone. I have a server which has NIC under name 'enp70s0'. DC guys are going to upgrade/replace it, downtime will be required. However, since it will be different device, its name in OS will change. Unfortunately theis means the system will be left without networking with all further problems. Question: is it possible somehow reconfigure the system so that netplan would catch up the new device name and bring the networking up? | 19:20 |
| hid3 | running Ubuntu 22.04 LTS | 19:21 |
| leftyfb | hid3: login remotely with your BMC and fix netplan after | 19:21 |
| hid3 | leftyfb, problem is that BMC is not available.. Isn't there any possibility to somehow 'fix it before it happens'? And of course I have no clue of the name of the device which will be after NIC replacement | 19:23 |
| leftyfb | not easily, no | 19:24 |
| toddc | same slot same type of card? should stay as same device name google predictable network interface | 19:25 |
| hid3 | then I'd probably need to write a bash scrit which would do some grep'ing in dmesg, find device name, then use sed in netplan config and restart networking | 19:26 |
| leftyfb | hid3: why isn't your BMC available? | 19:26 |
| leftyfb | hid3: i you're going to use a shell script, have it look in /sys/class/net/ for the ethernet name | 19:26 |
| rfm | if there's only going to be one interface before and after, should be able to get away with a really wildcard match, like the answer in https://askubuntu.com/questions/1272905/can-i-enable-dhcp4-on-all-interfaces-globally-without-knowing-the-interface-name | 19:26 |
| hid3 | toddc: not same slot, not same type. Currently it's some integrated Realtec 1Gbps, it will be upgraded to 10G some card in a pci slot | 19:26 |
| hid3 | rfm: any ideas if that wildcard match is possible for static configuration? The approach looks interesting | 19:28 |
| hid3 | leftyfb: ask WebNX provider why BMC is not available. I have no idea, simply it's not there | 19:28 |
| leftyfb | hid3: they don't give you any sort of out of band access to your server? What happens if you misconfigure the network? | 19:29 |
| hid3 | leftyfb: it's not a 'server', it's actually a desktop board acting as a 'server'. If you misconfigure your networking then you either give them login credentials OR request full system reinstall | 19:30 |
| rfm | hid3, sure, just put the match in the existing netplan config, under the interface name. | 19:33 |
| toddc | hid3: I have not tried but due to predictable network interface you should be able to fid the id of the new slot and card and get the new name assuming the install in the correct new slot | 19:35 |
| rfm | hid3, here's a netplan example that shows configuring by matching: https://netplan.readthedocs.io/en/stable/matching-interface-by-mac-address/ | 19:37 |
| leftyfb | they would need the new MAC | 19:37 |
| rfm | hid3, you wouldn't want to match on mac address (unless they can tell you what it is), but instead of matching mac, match name with a wildcard like en* | 19:38 |
| rfm | hid3, the danger being if they don't disable the old interface the match will catch both of them and I don't know what happens then... | 19:40 |
| ravage | I would set a temp root password just in case | 19:40 |
| ravage | Those things never go as expected | 19:41 |
| ravage | So support can login and get you online | 19:41 |
| hid3 | ravage: yeah, I'm going to do that for sure, at least for the first server :) | 19:42 |
| rfm | hid3, there are other things to match on, like driver name, if you know the type of the new NIC and can find out what driver is used | 19:42 |
| hid3 | and looks like I'm going to write a bash script with default GW pinger and netplan config sed'er in it | 19:42 |
| hid3 | rfm: awesome, I didn't know netplan supports naming interfaces like that! This will be very useful for my other use cases | 19:46 |
| FurretUber | Hi, I upgraded from Xubuntu 22.04 to Xubuntu 24.04. I noticed on the upgrade grub wasn't able to find the SSD and the upgrade finished "successfully" but the computer entered in a boot loop. I use encrypted boot. When I entered the boot password, it would reboot to firmware. I fixed it with a live media and a grub-install, but still, the upgrade | 19:51 |
| FurretUber | left the system nonfunctional. Has this been observed before? | 19:51 |
| FurretUber | Another problem I'm having is that resolv.conf broke. Nothing is recreating it, so I had to add a nameserver manually | 19:52 |
| stevecoh1 | In re: yesterday's query about local access to Google Drive, I have gone with the Gnome/Files method. It works for my needs, I don't plan to use it that often. The only problem with it is that the "file" gets a weird-ass Google name, instead of its name on the file system. | 20:04 |

| mewhenumuhh | Hello, sometimes when i "suspend" my HP 530 laptop without disconnecting wifi first, after i turn it back on, it just refuses to connect to a fully functional wireless network, so uh i just wanted to see if someone knows a solution for this issue. I want to clarify this problem isn't exclusive from Linux, it happens on Windows too :P | 23:45 |
| rbox | maybe disable wifi power savings | 23:47 |
| rbox | maybe have a script that turns off wifi and then turns it back on | 23:47 |
| mewhenumuhh | Ok that's actually an excellent idea | 23:47 |
| mewhenumuhh | thx | 23:48 |
