tacomasterHow can a snap over write a .deb version install during an apt upgrade?01:56
tacomasterIt has even reinstalled the snap version of firefox which was not even installed as I installed the one from the mozilla ppa01:58
ogra_it's the other way around ... the deb version installs the snap, it isnt the snap "overwriting" the deb version02:02
ogra_seems you didnt set up proper pinning when you set up the PPA02:02
ogra_so you got the firefox deb from the archive .... which only installs the snap02:02
TaysterHello I have a question about my ubuntu pc and don't know if this is the place to ask can I ask anything here or do I need to go to specific channels to ask certain things thanks02:40
ubunuruI can help you, whats wrong?02:40
ubunurusee I am UBUNURU! ><02:41
ubunuruadd a T and there's no difference02:41
ubunuruI can help you with anything... dont be afraid to speak freely02:42
ubunurudont mind my humor02:42
TaysterHello i shut my pc off because it was foze acouple times but now it won't load into ubuntu even if I select it on the boot menu. It opens into initramfs i started a fsck on /dev/sda2 with the flags -f and -y it looks like it's having trouble reading every section of the disk since it is a hdd of 740mb I assume this is going to take a verry verry long time. I'm wondering what my options are to do this more speedy or a diffrent way ot02:48
ubunuruyou just enter nomodeset on your grub command line, to the kernel, and then you can boot right into your desktop environment02:50
ubunuruit's likely that a recent update, broke your formerly working install, which is actually very typical on many distros unfortunately02:51
Bashing-om^ FUD !02:51
ubunuruso you'll simply have to fix the update that just broke your computer, by using an older kernel, and possibly reinstalling your graphics driver02:53
TaysterWhen i said I powered it off weird I meant i physically pressed the computers power button untill it turned off btw i juat wonder if I corrupted the disk by doing that02:53
ubunuruif you know what version of ubuntu you are using, you can find useful advice about your situation from other people who have experienced the same as you02:53
ubunuruit could be, in rare scenarios02:54
TaysterOh ok ill look into the grub command line02:54
ubunuruif you were just doing major upgrades of some sort02:54
ubunurumoving large amounts of files02:54
ubunuruimmediately prior to doing so, then yes02:54
ubunuruthe most important thing you can do, is learn how to disable automatic updates...02:57
ubunuruthat thing must be like, automatically breaking thousands of ubuntu users desktops, similarly to your situation02:58
ubunuru"unattended-upgrades"03:00
ubunuruyou gotta do sudo systemctl disable unattended-upgrades03:00
ubunuruthen you'll never get an update that breaks your entire operating system03:01
TaysterOh thank you03:01
ubunuruyou have to do it manually then, preferably not until after updates have had time to be used by other people, and issues worked out03:01
Bashing-omTayster: As you have had to shut the system down hard - It could have left the file system in an inconsistent state - running fsck on the file system is a good thing. Show us from a liveUSB- in a pastebin  what the target is - ' sudo fdisk -lu ' .03:02
TaysterI've used the sudo systemctl command several times for retating stoping and updating the ssh server when I was setting it up. Learning how to do that was a learning curve. I like that my pc did thus because I learn something new from every problem I have with ubuntu mistakes speed up the learning process by forcing you to do things you normally wouldn't or never think of thanks for ur help I didn't even know about nomodeset and gett03:04
TaysterBashing-om should I stop the current fsck and do it on a Bootable usb instead?03:06
Bashing-omTayster: Disregard "nomodeset" - usefull as graphical work-a-rounds. No bearing on this; to this time.03:06
Bashing-omTayster: If you are running fsck while the partition is mounted --- no can do --- as it is then a moving target that can not be fixed.03:08

enigma9o7isn't it supposed to restore windows the way you close them automatically already?  I found it odd it isn't automatic , nor can I find a related setting (or extension now you mention it)07:16
oerheksyes it should..07:18
oerhekssorry for mixing up full screen/max07:18
makara`sudo apt-mark hold linux-image-6.8.0-51-generic` will only hold back this kernel, which is the one I had trouble with. If I have trouble with further kernels I will consider logging an issue07:24
enigma9o7Also it seems it is completely ignoring "NoDisplay=true" in desktop files and putting them in the app grid anyway.07:26

zwikMy Ubuntu 24.04 LTS installation thinks my resolution is 2048x1536 (4:3), however the actual  screen resolution is 1920x1080 (16:9). The weird thing is, that when the 2048x1536 resolution is selected, it looks good on the screen, but when I move my mouse to the bottom and right side of the screen, there's more desktop that I can't see. when I select the correct resolution (1920x1080) I notice the same09:40
zwikbehavior on the bottom and left side but also it looks squished together. How can I solve this? This happens during the installation of Ubuntu LTS. Also I'm on a Sony Vaio laptop with a NVidia GT330 graphics card. I don't need the official nvidia drivers, nouveau would be okay as well.09:40
zwikI also tried adding video=1920x1080 as kernel argument in Grub during boot, that doesn't seem to help either. That seems to boot the installation in 2048x1536 and gives the same behavior as above.09:46
zwikAlso, I remember that older installations do work. I'm not sure what has been changed though.09:49
=== tomreyn_ is now known as tomreyn
zwikI just verified, LTS 22.04 comes up with a wrong resolution as well, LTS 20.04 does give me the correct resolution.10:34
oerhekson what videocard/driver?10:34
oerhekshave you tried to reset your monitor with its own menu?10:35
zwikDuring installation, not sure which driver is used there. In the laptop is an nvidia GT300M. I'm using the build in screen of the laptop10:35
zwikGT330M*10:36
oerhekslshw -c video # see driver part10:36
zwikOn 22.04 the driver is nouveau10:37
oerheksohm that 300m was supported by the 340 driver, now gone in noble/24.0410:38
oerheksuse the nouveau driver10:38
zwikI'm pretty sure, the nouveau driver is used in 22.04 and 24.04 as well, Will flash a driver with 24.04 again to verify10:39
oerheksubuntu-driver list # gives all drivers available10:40
oerheksbut not for yours10:40
zwikI'm not sure what you're saying. In LTS 22.04, the nouveau driver is used as well. ubuntu-drivers list does list nvidia-340 but that is not what is actively used right? Again, during installation. I don't think the installation uses the nvidia-340 drivers?10:42
zwiklshw -c video says the nouveau driver is used in LTS 22.0410:43
zwikDuring the installation of 24.04 when I open a terminal and type lshw -c video it doesn't say anything about a driver, it does on 22.0410:52
zwikubuntu-drivers doesn't list anything where on 22.04 it only listed the nvidia-34010:52
zwikI'm not sure how to check which video driver currently is used during the installation of 24.0410:53
oerheksmaybe you need sudo lshw -c video10:54
oerheksyes, the 340 is gone, but it sounds like you better file a bugreport10:54

zwikah, lsmod lists the nouveau driver being used10:55
zwikIt might be a bug in nouveau/kernel? I notice the same behavior in Arch as well.10:56
oerheksyes, so a bugreport might help others & distros too10:56
tomreynzwik: i'm not certain about this, but i'd expect all live / installer systems to not use the nvidia driver themselves10:56
tomreynzwik: a change that may have been introduced, though, is whether xorg or wayland is used10:57
zwiktomreyn: I agree! I'm fine to use the nouveau driver. The 340 driver is not supported anymore and I'm fine with that :) . I just want my resolution to be working :)10:57
tomreynsure, that's understandable10:57
zwikI'll file a bugreport10:58
tomreynthe "env" command (run in a terminal emulator, ctrl-alt-t) should give away which graphics server is being used10:58
zwiktomreyn: which env var should I be looking for?10:59
tomreynXDG_SESSION_TYPE11:00
oerheksenv | grep XDG_SESSION_TYPE11:00
zwikX11 on 24.0411:00
oerheksas expected..11:00
tomreynokay then no need to check the others11:00
tomreynmaybe 24.10 switches to wayland there11:01
Guest27_2and is X11 still available?11:02
tomreyni think (not really sure there) 20.04 to 24.04 use wayland by default but will switch to Xorg if an nvidia GPU is detected11:02
zwikfor filing a bug report ubuntu-bug is advised. It expects a buggy-package-name as argument, what package name should I use in this case?11:02
tomreynX11 is still available in all supported releases11:02
oerheksubuntu-bug nouveau11:02
zwikthanks all!11:03
zwikI can't do that during installation?11:04
zwikbecause it doesn't actually crash?11:05
oerheksno, wait until you finished and rebooted11:05
backuppci am asked to take backup of the files stored is a windows file server...... My plan is to mount the windows shared folder on the linux box and use rsync......Gnome will be too resource hungry .....is lubuntu good for this?11:05

backuppcoerheks Dont want a headless....The issue is all ubuntu variants are supported for only 3 years11:07
Guest27_2but new proprietary nvidia works still with wayland (nouveau has bugs i believe)11:07
oerheksnouveau gets better every update11:08
oerhekshence the drop of 34011:08
Guest27_2depends on which features you use11:09

Markozashello18:05
lotuspsychjewelcome Markozas18:05
Markozasi am using nvidia 565 drivers, from the nvidia repo (cuda-drivers proprietary) on ubuntu 24.04. for some reason gdm3 wants to start with Xorg instead of wayland18:05
Markozasis there anything i can do?18:06
lotuspsychjeMarkozas: this just released from rss news, https://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2024/12/nvidia-driver-565-ppa/18:07
lotuspsychjewe had some users reporting similar, maybe try a reboot instead of a logout/login Markozas18:07
leftyfbMarkozas: are you picking wayland from the login screen?18:08
Markozasleftyfb: gdm3 starts Xorg yes. but when i use intel igpu (prime-select intel, instead of prime-select nvidia) gdm3 runs on wayland18:08
Markozasits an issue with nvidia for some reason18:09
leftyfbMarkozas: https://apploye.com/help/content/images/2022/11/ubuntu-login-cogwheel.jpg18:10
Markozasi am connecting via ssh, and i see gdm3 starts Xorg on nvidia, but wayland on intel18:10
Markozasso i can use waypipe over ssh with intel, but not with nvidia18:11
leftyfbMarkozas: don't use ssh, use a monitor, keyboard and mouse18:11
Markozasi dont have access to that currently18:12
Markozassome users suggest installing this:  apt install libnvidia-egl-wayland118:12
leftyfbMarkozas: then why do you need to use wayland?18:12
Markozasi want to deploy an application that uses wayland only18:12
leftyfbMarkozas: edit /etc/gdm3/custom.conf and set WaylandEnable=true18:13
Markozasi have done that, its ignored on nvidia, works on intel18:13
leftyfbMarkozas: got secureboot disabled?18:13
Markozasnot sure, but nvidia module is loaded.18:14
Markozasi also used the cuda-drivers from nvidia repo, which are supposed to be signed i think18:14
leftyfbtried setting this as a kernel parameter? nvidia-drm.modeset=118:15
Markozasthe cuda-drivers, set this in /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia.conf       options nvidia-drm modeset=118:15
Markozasdidnt try it directly as kernel param, but i assume its the same18:16
leftyfbI would try it as a kernel parameter18:16
Markozasarchwiki, says i might also need  options nvidia-drm fbdev=118:16
Markozaswhich i havent tried yet18:16
leftyfbI'm reading you might also need that libnvidia-egl-wayland1 package18:17
leftyfbbut again, if you're running everything over ssh, I don't understand why you need wayland over xorg18:18
Markozasleftyfb i tried installing it, but cuda-drivers from:  https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/cuda-installation-guide-linux/index.html#ubuntu18:19
Markozasare in conflict18:19
lotuspsychjeusualy users benefit better from the ubuntu graphics ppa Markozas18:19
lotuspsychje!nvidia18:20
ubottuDrivers for Nvidia graphics cards: (A) No gaming/CAD/CUDA needed or legacy hardware? Use "nouveau" (open source, lacks many features). (B) Otherwise, "nvidia" (proprietary driver, fully featured). Install using "ubuntu-drivers" CLI or apt - not from nvidia.com. Driver series, hardware support (release notes): https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/unix/ - Latest drivers !PPA: https://pad.lv/ppa/graphics-drivers18:20
lotuspsychjeunless you want cuda specificly?18:20
Markozasno i want the proprietary nvidia driver 565, should i get it with ubuntu-drivers instead?18:21
Markozas(dont need cuda, just proprietary nvidia driver for nvenc/nvedec)18:21
lotuspsychjeMarkozas: i would reccomend the ubuntu repos first, if its not there, the ubuntu graphics ppa18:22
CeeClearHello. Got a question to ask about burning a data disk to blue ray18:23
Markozasso secureboot is enabled (mokutil --sb-state​, got it from this)18:25
Markozasi cannot sign drivers with a popup during boot. what are my options to install nvidia drivers from the repos?18:25
Markozasis there any driver already signed? (i think non-dkms ones are signed right?)18:25
lotuspsychjeMarkozas: secureboot enabled can influence the working of your hardware, try disable to make sure18:28
CeeClearbeen trying to burn a blu ray data disk. the drive recognizes it as a blu ray but when i try to burn it I get the error message "Unsupported type of task operation18:32
CeeClearSession error : An internal error occurred (brasero_burn_record brasero-burn.c:2854)"18:32

Markozasif there was an issue with secureboot, would lspci -k , show that the nvidia module was loaded?18:34
lotuspsychjeMarkozas: if secureboot blocks, it would showup in your sudo dmesg18:34
lotuspsychjeMarkozas: to see if your driver succesfully loaded, sudo lshw -C video , and nvidia-smi18:34
Markozasnvidia-smi works and lshw18:35
Markozasnvidia: loading out-of-tree module taints kernel.18:37
Markozasbut seems to be loaded, as well as nvidia-drm18:37
Markozasarchwiki claims gdm3 has some udev rule, that stops it from running wayland on nvidia, and prefers x1118:38
Markozasbut i cant find that rule in ubuntu18:38
lotuspsychjeMarkozas: well, the new nvidia driver surely needs a lot of testers18:40
lotuspsychjefor wayland that is18:40
Markozasis there a way to see why gdm3 chose x11?18:40
Markozasjournalctl doesnt say anything18:40
lotuspsychjeMarkozas: if i was you, i would first disable secureboot and start doing tests after18:41
lotuspsychjeMarkozas: you got autologin?18:41
Markozasno but i can enable it from gdm3/custom.conf18:43
Markozasjournalctl says gdm-x-session starts, instead of gdm-wayland-session18:44
Markozasusing gdm/custom.conf, i autologined as normal user, with wayland eanbled, the user session uses x1118:50
Markozas-_-18:50
lotuspsychjeMarkozas: try autologin off, secureboot off and clean reboot to gdm, see if you can anter wayland on 56518:51
Markozasunfortunately its a remote machine, i dont have a way to disable secureboot remotely18:52
Markozasmaybe its a gdm3 issue, i will try sddm or something else18:52
lotuspsychjei would go agree with leftyfb here, testing graphics over ssh might not be best to test wayland18:55
lotuspsychjei'd go physical testing myself18:55

Markozasfixed.18:58
Markozasarchwiki was right, the udev rule in ubuntu for gdm was elsewhere though:  https://askubuntu.com/a/140391618:59
Markozasits a gdm specific issue, they force x11 under some conditions even if you pick wayland18:59
lotuspsychjenice find ioria18:59
ioriaMarkozas, /udev/rules.d/61-gdm.rules ?19:01
Markozasyes19:01

Markozasarchwiki says that you can conform with the udev rules ideally: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/GDM#Wayland_and_the_proprietary_NVIDIA_driver19:01
Markozasand if you cant, you can disable the udev rule19:01
Markozasi didnt manage to satisfy the udev rule though, i did all that was listed19:01
Markozasthis issue doesnt exist in sddm for kde19:02

Markozasthey fixed it here20:23
Markozasshould i get newer gnome version on ubuntu 24.04?20:23
tomreynyou might be aware that nvidia is the only gpu vendor who didn't get around to supporting wayland for a decade, which required everyone to add workarounds to still make their customers happy. those workarounds may now be getting in the way more than be useful that *some* nvidia driver series have finally received somewhat stable wayland support20:29
=== NewtonSanta is now known as NewtonTreendy
Markozasi have been hitting my head against the wall for hours, it turned out there is a udev rule that forces xorg for gdm for all new nvidia drivers20:30
Markozasdoesn't even pick specific versions which are problematic20:30
Markozassddm on kde doesn't do that, ubuntu needs to backport the fix from upstream asap20:31
Markozasthe commit was from 202320:31
tomreyni assume this was a decision taken close to 24.04 release when it turned out the wayland support nvdia had promised didn't actually work out.20:31
tomreynyou could file a feature request to have it re-evaluated20:32
tomreynbut i'm not sure that gdm will get an SRU for this20:34
tomreynunless it's clear that it will work reliably then20:34
tomreyn(i'm saying this as a volunteer, i'm not involved in ubuntu delevopment)20:36
Markozas565 works with wayland good according to what people say20:36
Markozasalso this must be ubuntu specific, i dont see this rule in upstream at any point20:39
oerheksnext 24.10 will ..20:44
oerheksjust not this LTS, that aims on stability20:44
Markozasit is an ubuntu specific patch, i downloaded the gdb3.tar.xz source and found a patch that reverts the upstream commit20:44
Markozaswell done ubuntu, you know better than upstream i guess20:45
Markozasdisable all future nvidia versions for noble20:45
oerheks... rant away, i just gave you the answer it will be supported on wayland.20:45
Markozaswhatever canonical has always been trash20:46
Markozasdebian patches things too, but they didnt do that, and they are much more stable than ubuntu20:46
Markozascanonical just spams MOTD and apt to get enteprise for extra updates20:46
* oerheks walks away20:46
Markozas(extra random patches)20:46
Markozasthanks ubuntu for making me waste 6 hours of my life, and thinking upstream was at fault20:47

enigma9o7yeah, gnome tried implemeting nvidias eglstreams or whatever it was, never worekd quite right, nvidia finally agreed to support GBM, so gnome dropped their eglstreams support for nvidia until their GBM was ready23:18
enigma9o7Does 24.04 not use wayland by default on nvidia?  I figured with nvidia-550 that comes with 24.04 it'd be good enough.  but i can also understand why they'd want to keep it disabled by default too.23:20
enigma9o7But yeah, everyone who uses nvidia should switch to another vendor :)23:20
enigma9o7mynextgpuwontbenvidia23:20
oerheksenigma9o7, 24.10 will support nvidia /wayland23:28
oerheksnot this LTS23:28
enigma9o7How bout kubuntu 24.10, are they wayland by default on nvidia?23:39
oerheksyes?23:41
oerhekskde does that too, AFAIK23:41
ogra_https://www.phoronix.com/news/Ubuntu-22.04-NV-Wayland-Default23:41
ogra_it depends on the driver ...23:42
ogra_and IIRC the hybrid graphics setups default to xorg in any case ... but newer discrete cards that use a driver >510 will use wayland by default23:43
ogra_(in 22.04 already that is)23:43
oerheksah i use the 470 for my 650..23:45
enigma9o7That doesn't support any form of wayland anyway, not the (now unused) eglstreams, or the new gbm stuff.23:45
