Piratyhi. i booted ubuntu 24.04 live from usb on a 2in1 convertible (the ones that have 360degree hinges to allow tablet mode) with touchscreen. now most important things work OOTB. touchscreen is generally responsive, yet i think it needs to be configured as it doesn't accept 'tap' as click , at least it doesn't most of the time (sometime it seems to work) . any ideas or hints what might be the issue?15:04
aeromechieHey folks, good morning. I have a question about a dual-boot problem after an upgrade from 24.04 to 24.10. While I can boot successfully into 24.10, booting into the windows partition only works after selecting the recovery mode for my current kernel, which tries (and fails) to load, and then boots into windows.15:14
aeromechieI assume my GRUB settings are broken and/or misconfigured, and I was wondering if this is a bug report sort of situation, or a troubleshooting situation. Thanks!15:14
Piratyagain my touchscreen issue: the on-screen-keyboard shows up sometimes (for instance in firefox, when selecting a textbox) and the screen keys turn dark for a second when i tap them, yet no letters appear in the textbox. this seems to me like the touch screen feature works and it's an issue in gnome ?15:23
mortdoes anyone happen to know how you get networkmanager to manage the interfaces on an ubuntu server?15:25
mortI stopped+masked netplan and systemd-networkd but 'nmcli' still shows ethernet and wifi as unmanaged, I was able to temporarily set wifi as managed with 'nmcli dev set <wifi iface> managed yes' but that only works until networkmanager is restarted and didn't work for the ethernet interface15:26
leftyfbmort: why are you disabling the default that works to install and setup network-manager?15:27
mortleftyfb: because it doesn't work15:28
leftyfbmort: you're saying the default networking on ubuntu server doesn't work and you think installing the NM is going to fix it?15:28
mortI'm trying to share a connection from wifi over ethernet, I couldn't figure out how to get netplan to do that; netplan only seems to let me make a l2 bridge which doesn't seem to be supported between STA-mode wifi and ethernet15:29
mortleftyfb: correct15:29
mortwell, doesn't work *for my purposes*15:29
leftyfbmort: undo all the changes you did with network-manager15:30
leftyfbmort: sudo nmcli device wifi hotspot ssid <you SSID here> password <your wifi password here> ifname wlan015:31
leftyfbsudo nmcli connection modify $(nmcli con show Hotspot|awk '/uuid/ {print $2}') connection.autoconnect yes connection.autoconnect-priority 10015:31
mortleftyfb: that requires the devices to be managed by networkmanager, no? Currently, `nmcli` just shows a wifi iface and an ethernet iface listed as unmanaged15:31

Guest15leftyfb how to install a .deb?15:36
leftyfbGuest15: sudo apt install ./path/to/filename.deb15:36
rfmmort, in ubunto netplan holds the network configuration which is rendered to either networkd (on server installs) or networkmanager (on desktop installs).  If you want to use networkmanager on a server install, don't mask netplan, change the renderer in the netplan config15:38
Guest15guys is amd gpu now as usefull as on linux on ubuntu?15:38
Guest15xd15:38
Guest15I mean like windows was like 200 fps while I had a month ago 60 fps in games with linux15:39
mortrfm: hm but I don't think I want netplan to render to networkmanager? I think I want networkmanager to be the source of the configuration, not just a netplan back-end?15:39
mortif I set netplan to render to networkmanager, should I then configure the network sharing thing in netplan and use netplan apply or generate or whatever to get netplan to configure networkmanager appropriately?15:39
leftyfbmort: what does your NetworkManager.conf look like?15:41
rfmmort, in ubuntu 23.10 and after networkmanager stores its config in netplan.  you can configure the net either by editing the netplan files or through nmcli (or the gui network settings)15:41
leftyfbmort: also, did you try telling NM to manage the device?    sudo nmcli device set wlan0 managed yes15:42
mortrfm: I'm on 22.0415:42
mortleftyfb: I tried that, but it had no effect on the ethernet device.. on the wifi device it worked ('nmcli' started showing it as managed) but it reverted to being unmanaged after restarting networkmanager15:43
leftyfbmort: what does your NetworkManager.conf look like?15:43
leftyfband the output of: nmcli device15:43
tomreynGuest15: 60 FPS on Linux is due to vertical sync, that's just a matter of configuration.15:45
Guest15no I mean like 60 fps dropping to 30 fps15:46
Guest15amd rx 7000 series is just not good compatible with linux15:46
rfmmort, then you create a stub netplan config that just specifies rendering to networkmanager, the way a 22.04 desktop install does.15:47
Guest15but you know what15:48
Guest15I will just try it15:48
mortleftyfb: NetworkManager.conf has: [main] plugins=ifupdown,keyfile [ifupdown] managed=false [device] wifi.scan-rand-mac-address=no; there's also a conf.d/default-wifi-powersave-on.conf which says [connection] wifi.powersave = 3415:48

Guest15the issues only appear when it comes to playing games15:50
tomreynwhich issues?15:51
tomreynwhich card exactly? which kernel?15:51
Guest15frames drop sometimes from 60 to 25 generally it feels very laggy even on lower settings.15:52
Guest15on windows you just have all the time up to 200 fps highest settings15:52
mortleftyfb: regarding the 'nmcli device wifi hotspot' stuff from before: are you sure that's using wifi in station (i.e client) mode so that I can connect ethernet-only devices to the ethernet port?15:53
Guest15ravage hello missis15:53
Guest15missis simplex15:53
mortI associate "hotspot" with setting the wifi device in access point mode so that other devices can connect to it wirelessly15:53
rfmmort, I think your problem may be there's still the systemd-networkd config rendered the last time you ran netplan so netword and networkmanager are fighting15:54
mortnetworkd was also masked15:54
mortbut I did as you suggested, unmasked netplan and systemd-networkd and made a stub 'network: version: 2, renderer: NetworkManager' netplan config15:54

aeromechieHas anyone experienced problems with dual-boot after updating from 24.04 to 24.10? I can only get into windows by selecting the "recovery mode" for my current kernel15:59
mortrfm: now, wlp12s0 is managed by default by networkmanager, but enp11s0 (ethernet) still isn't... and 'nmcli dev set enp11s0 managed yes' still has no effect (but it also doesn't produce any errors)16:00
rfmmort, the next thing I'd try is putting a empty config for enp11s0 into the netplan just to tell netplan that the renderer: networkmanager applies to it too16:09
leftyfbmort: do you have the netplan service stopped?16:10
leftyfbsorry, not netplan16:10
leftyfbsystemd-networkd16:10
mortsystemd-networkd is running16:11
leftyfbtry stopping/disabling it and telling nm to manage your interfaces16:11
mortI'll try that; however shouldn't it be netplan's responsibility to tell networkd what to do and not to do to not get in the way?16:12
mortno effect, 'nmcli dev set enp11s0 managed yes' exits with code 0 and no output yet enp11s0 remains unmanaged16:13
mortNetworkManager logs to the journal an audit thingy, op="device-managed" interface="enp11s0" blah blah result="success"16:14
leftyfbmort: sudo udevadm control --reload-rules && sudo udevadm trigger && sudo systemctl restart NetworkManager16:15
mortthat did nothing, enp11s0 still unmanaged, dev set enp11s0 managed yes still does nothing16:16
leftyfbtry forcing them to managed again16:16
morthow16:17
mortisn't that what dev set .. managed yes is supposed to do?16:18
leftyfbmort: sudo nmcli device set enp11s0 managed yes16:18
mortthat has no effect16:19
leftyfb¯\_(ツ)_/¯16:19
leftyfbI got nothing then16:19
mortthe frustrating thing is it's not even failing16:19
mortcould it be that ethernet interfaces are always unmanaged until they're actually connected?16:23
=== mrbutthead10 is now known as mrbutthead1
leftyfbmort: wait, you don't have them connected?16:23
mortit didn't seem like much reason to go farther when networkmanager doesn't even manage the interface16:24
mortwhen I read "this interface is unmanaged" I think "networkmanager will never touch this interface"16:24
leftyfbtry plugging it in16:24
mortI mean the goal isn't to get an Internet connection over Ethernet though16:25
mortI can find a switch and another computer and try to connect the computers via Ethernet and see if NM magically notices?16:26
leftyfbmort: this is just to make sure it gets set to managed16:26
leftyfbjust plug it into a port to get an ip for now16:26
mortA bit difficult, I'd have to carry this desktop to a different floor to find a router to connect it to16:27
mortI have to pause this project for a bit, I'll get back to it later. Thanks for all the help thus far!16:28

cedarGood afternoon gentlemen19:04
Guest789hi cedar19:04
cedarHello Guest78919:04
cedarI just upgraded my Ubuntu Server from 22.04 to 24.04 and bricked it19:05
cedarhttps://imgur.com/gallery/ubuntu-server-22-04-to-24-04-upgrade-failure-8QKTDGP19:05
cedarHere is a picture of what it is displaying now.19:05
cedarPlease advise.19:06
Rounincedar: Did it brick the machine, or just the OS? If it's just the OS, you could extract your personal files to another disk using a bootable USB or some such thing (or putting the disk in another machine, etc.) and reinstall19:06
cedarLooks like the volume group got messed up during the upgrade.  It was just a volume group on one single hard drive so the LVM doesn't even matter if I can get it to just be "regular"19:07
cedarHey Rounin, thanks for your reply.  It's just the OS.  Check out the imgur link I sent19:07
Rounincedar: It just shows a spinning wheel thing and an empty page. Anyway, messed up in what way?19:10
RouninAh... Now it shows like ... a dialog that asks to use my personal data19:10
cedaryou shouldnt have to log in to view imgur19:11
cedaranyway i can upload it to something more preferable19:11
cedarhttps://files.catbox.moe/iqup34.jpeg19:12
cedarHow about that19:12
cedarALERT! /dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-ubuntu--lv does not exist.  Dropping to a shell!19:13
cedarYeah... that was my boot volume.  Uh oh.19:13
Rounincedar: Hmmmm... Software raid... I mean, I'd still suggest checking it from some sort of bootable USB (that has mdadm)... Perhaps the volume is OK, but the initrd lacks some kernel module needed to support software RAID?19:16
RouninLet's say it installed a bunch of new kernel modules, right, and then an initrd... If you're using some extra module to get support for those volumes, is that going to be there or does it need to be added, perhaps19:17
RouninOne way to find out would be to boot from a known working OS and trying to mount the disk(s)19:18
cedarYeah, in hindsight the Ubuntu LVM was a bad idea.  But when you install Ubuntu Server it prompts the user to use it, so I did.  Little did I know..19:19
cedarIts pretty unnecessary if you only have one hard drive.19:19
cedarit did the entire 22.04 to 24.04 upgrade. Complete. Successful installation.  Rebooted... then never came back up.  Came up to this screen instead.19:20
cedarSo, aside from booting from a USB, backing up the data and reinstalling, what can I do?19:22
cedarat this "initramfs" prompt19:22
cedarI have all the data backed up already.  But I don't have all the configurations backed up (maybe).  I just backed up my home folders, /etc, and /var19:23
cedarideally i can disable this LVM somehow and tell the system the boot device is just /dev/sda19:24
Rounincedar: Ah, right... So you're not using software RAID... mdadm is just checking, but probably irrelevant, but the error is at the bottom19:24
cedarIs LVM not software raid?  Seems like a similar concept at least.19:25
Rounincedar: Perhaps... Anyway, you probably want to find out whether the volume group actually does exist or not19:25
cedarHow19:26
Rounincedar: It even says a common cause can be missing modules... So let's say it uses a module of some kind for LVM, right... But it's not installed. The disk might be just fine19:26
Rounincedar: Someone else has had the same issue https://askubuntu.com/questions/551446/cant-find-lvm-root-dropped-back-to-initramfs19:30
Rounin"vgchange -ay" they say19:30

davis135and it still has 7 months of security upgrades22:00
tomreyndavis135: you could ask in #ubuntu-security - see also the notes at https://ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2024-9680#notes22:00

sixwheeledbeastit is available for focal on mozillas ppa22:22
davis135sixwheeledbeast: interesting!22:23
davis135is it a drop-in replacement or should I expect something to break?22:26
sixwheeledbeastshould be fine, I switched to librewolf a while ago. still waiting for thunderbird fix on the ppa tho...22:27
enigma9o7@cedar I just looked at focal with rmadison, it does indeed have firefox 131.0+build1.1-0ubuntu0.20.04.122:34
enigma9o7its jammy/noble/oracular that redirecting to 1snap1-0ubuntu*22:35
causativeupdating to 24.04, ubuntu has removed my pip packages because it wants to manage the system python itself. Is there any way to know or keep track of which packages were lost?22:51
enigma9o7it doesn't show you what it's removing and allow you to say yes or no?22:54
enigma9o7anyway if you didn't save that, it's likely in apt logs...22:54
causativeno the first I learned of it is when my script broke because of a missing package22:54
enigma9o7/var/log/apt22:54
causativeand then "pip3 install playsound" gives me the error: externally-managed-environment22:55
causativeI know I can force install this, but that doesn't tell me which pip packages are gone22:55
enigma9o7if t here isnt' an ubuntu python3 package for playsound, and you don't wanna use pipx, my advice definately don't use sudo if you're gunna force the install.22:56
causativeit's not sudo that forces it, it's pip3 install playsound --break-system-packages22:56
enigma9o7right, don't use sudo with that22:57
causativeyou don't need sudo with it22:57
enigma9o7so that it installs it in your $HOME instead of messing with system22:57
enigma9o7Yes, I know you don't!  I said don't use sudo, I wouldn't tell you that if it wouldn't work.22:57
enigma9o7whatever you install that way will only worked when logged in as you, but that avoids breaking your OS22:59
causativewell there is no mention of "playsound" in any file in /var/log/apt/23:00
causativeso if there is any record of what was removed it is not there23:00
causativeI would rather not find out bit by bit which of my scripts are broken over the next several months23:00
enigma9o7the updater wouldn't have messed with stuff in $HOME anyway23:01
enigma9o7and if they were installed by pip, they wouldn't be in apt logs....23:02
causativeit removed every pip package that I manually installed with pip3 install ...23:02
causativeand I don't know what those all were23:02
enigma9o7and i don't imagine the updater would use pip to uninstall stuff, although you could look at the script itself to see if it possibly does that....23:02
causativeit looks like pip doesn't have logs by default if you don't tell it each time to log23:05
causativethis seems like a severe problem that would affect many users23:06
enigma9o7If you manual installed them as youself (without sudo) I find it super unlikley it just deleted them, the upgrade doesn't touch your home folder.23:06
enigma9o7(or anyone's home folder)23:08
causativeI don't know where pip installs packages, but I do have several "pip install" commands in my bash history, without sudo, and those packages are not present in "pip list"23:11
causativethey were also not in any venv23:12
leftyfbcausative: use virtualenv23:12
causativegreat thanks leftyfb and how is virtualenv going to solve the problem that I am currently faced with?23:12
causativetelling me I should have been using venv does not help me now23:12
leftyfbsudo apt install python3-venv && python3 -m venv myenv && source myenv/bin/activate && pip install playsound23:13
leftyfbcausative: the other bad thing you can do is: sudo pip3 install playsound --break-system-packages23:13
enigma9o7hmmm "pip list -v" shows nothing eh?23:13
KDVKHBFFHHELLO23:13
causativeuseless, what I want to know is what is the list of manually-installed pip packages, outside of any venv, that ubuntu has just removed from my system23:13
=== KDVKHBFFH is now known as tutu777
enigma9o7I think when installed locally pip uses ~/.local/bin23:14
tutu777hello23:14
causativemaybe at some future point I will update my various scripts to use venv, but first I need to know what exactly is gone23:14
leftyfbcausative: pip list --local23:15
leftyfbor pip install pip-review && pip-review23:15
enigma9o7I feel like I've said this twice already, but maybe third time's the charm: the updater doesn't touch stuff in your home folder.  It didnt remove anything.23:15
causativepip list --local does not show the missing packages23:17
enigma9o7Did you check .local/bin yet?23:17
leftyfbcausative: how did you install the "missing packages"?23:17
leftyfbcausative: what release of ubuntu did you upgrade from?23:17
enigma9o7(I suspect they just broke their $PATH)23:19
causativeenigma9o7, they aren't there. leftyfb (1) I installed them with "pip install rubin-sim" and "pip3 install png" and "pip3 install python-vlc"23:19
causative(2) from 22.0423:19
leftyfbcausative: ok, reinstall them23:19
causativethat would be great if I knew what they all were23:19
causativethose are just the last 3 I can see in my bash history23:19
leftyfbyou should only install packages you know you need23:20
causativeeach package I installed, I obviously needed at the time23:20
leftyfbright, "at the time". If everything is running fine at the moment, then you don't necessarily need them at the moment23:21
causativeI have a lot of little scripts I wrote for various reasons that I might use again at some point23:21
causativeand they use the packages23:21
enigma9o7although I still have no idea what happened to the stuf fyou previously installed, if you're on a newer ubuntu version, there may be ubuntu packages now for some of the stuff you were forced to use pip with before.23:21
causativeso if I don't solve this, they will break next time I use them, until I install the package23:22
leftyfbcausative: checked ~/.local/lib/python3.*/site-packages/ and /usr/local/lib/python3.*/dist-packages/ ?23:23
causativeah! they are at ~/.local/lib/python3.*/site-packages/ , thank you. Unfortunately there are also a lot of packages I didn't manually install, how can I tell the difference?23:24
leftyfbcausative: I think that's something you have to realize, pip packages are kind of a thing you maintain yourself. Ubuntu doesn't manage them and I don't think it's to be expected that upgrades to new releases will keep them intact, unless you use virtualenv23:24
Bartek4PLhi23:26
causativewell I guess I can correlate this list of packages with the list of import statements from my python scripts23:27
davis135leftyfb: i understood that warning as "you're supposed to use apt install python3-<package name> instead of pip if you want to install in global namespace"23:27
leftyfbdavis135: negative23:27
leftyfbdavis135: sudo pip3 install will install packages to /usr/local/lib/python3.*/dist-packages23:28
leftyfbthough using apt packages will be managed by apt and supported across upgrades23:28
davis135then i just went back to 22.04 because a lot of things broke on 24.04 and shelved caring about it for few more years23:29
davis135either way pip3 without venv is non-functional nowadays23:29
davis135unless you force it of course23:30
mmx_in_spacehi all. is/are there such a thing as official and/or unofficial version(s) of "FreeRDP" **Server** (**Not Client**) for ubuntu anywhere?23:51
mmx_in_spaceavailable via aptitude or as PPA or something? i am pretty sure source code for the server software is publicly available23:54
mmx_in_spacebut wondering if i could take easy route 🙂23:55
