[00:25] leftyfb it s been 4hrs, and with the adm video driver, it's still up and running. that s a first. thx [00:48] greetings [00:49] is there a way to make connections from android to xrdp (on ubuntu) less laggy? [00:49] somehow, connections to windows rdp sessions are smooth and less laggy [00:49] if not already, used wired connection directly between android device and pc. [00:49] usb [00:50] enigma9o7: it is rdp to a remote machine [00:50] but even on wifi LAN, xrdp appears slow [00:51] So direct connection would likely help make it less laggy. [00:51] but connections to windows rdp servers are always smooth [00:51] instant [00:52] Hmmm, well if you want to make those more laggy, perhaps try using a satellite connection? [00:52] it is as-if a picture on the screen doesnt appear instantly but updates line by line [00:52] enigma9o7: the screen updates asif going line by line instead of coming instantly [00:53] i am using a high speed internet @300-500Mbps with 40-50ms latency [00:58] enigma9o7: the server/ubuntu LTS version displays this result in an internet speed test: Download 260Mbps Upload70.3Mbps Latency5.00ms [00:58] in speed.cloudflare.com speedtest [01:57] Hello how are you ? === carlo_ is now known as Guest8595 [03:11] Good evening folks! Hope you are all doing well!Can anyone tell me how long is the support for Ubuntu 24.0.4 till the next release? [03:15] josh_: release cycle is 6 months. [03:16] !releases [03:16] Ubuntu releases a new version every 6 months. Each version is supported for 9 months (non-LTS) or 5 years (LTS). More info at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases [03:34] i hope add wireless to bridge , that wireless as client receive upstream internet traffic , executing command "sudo brctl addif br0 wlp3s0 [03:34] " , error prompt "can't add wlp3s0 to bridge br0: Operation not supported", how to fix it [03:38] you generally can't bridge most wireless devices [03:55] Ok thanks for information. I must say that I am pretty impressed with the 24.04 version so far, nothing to complain about and bugs free. I don't know if anyone feels the same way [05:13] wgrant: hi, are you there? === trekkie1701c_ is now known as trekkie1701c === remy_ is now known as Remy [06:52] Hi everyone! Having a problem with apparmor in complain (learning) mode. It acts like enforce mode - in the logs: apparmor="ALLOWED" requested_mask="wr" denied_mask="wr".

I'm having an issue with graphics (lshw shows UNCLAIMED for the display). I had an old x230 Tablet thinkpad with ubuntu 18 LTS working just fine. As I was working my way up to 22.0, I must have screwed up and failed to setup luks and so the install failed. I managed to fix the luks issue, complete the upgrade, but now graphics messed up. I'm [11:19] at 24.0 LTS rn with a barely working 640x480 (4:3) display.  can someone please help me fix the display issue? [11:27] Guest24: Hm. Which kernel are you currently running? that is, what does uname -r output? [11:29] rn I'm on 6.8.0-48-generic (upgraded to it to see if it could help) [11:30] what sort of graphics does this x230 have? [11:30] and dpkg -l '*6.8.0-48-generic' shows that linux-image, linux-modules and linux-modules-extras are all installed for that version? [11:34] wgrant: ping [11:38] mgedmin geirha part1: https://dpaste.com/5V8BV2LVV part2: https://dpaste.com/5X42T7QEW [11:38] geirha let me give that a try [11:40] geirha https://dpaste.com/CRL6EVS7V [11:40] let me install it [11:47] installed linux-modules-extra  and rebooted. The display is now claimed and things are working well!! Thank you. The boot splah screen still shows a 640x480 graphics. should I rebuild initramfs to fix this? [11:52] geirha graphics are a little flaky. since this is an older laptop model. do you think I'm better off downgrading to 5.19.x? [12:01] weird, my x220 never had any issues with graphics (Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09)) [12:01] although I haven't upgraded it to 24.04 lts yet (it's still on 22.04 lts) [12:01] linux-modules-extra-5.15.0-122-generic is installed, I see [12:12] Hi all [12:42] mgedmin: I think I was missing linux-modules-extra. That did the trick for me. Perhaps older gen graphics drivers were moved there in 6.8.0. don't know for sure [12:44] I don't quite understand the purpose of the linux-modules-extra package (why it is split from linux-modules) [12:45] but I see if you have the linux-generic metapackage installed, it does depend on linux-module-extra-$kernelver [12:45] you should install linux-image-generic [12:45] (or linux-generic, which depends on that and on linux-headers-generic) [12:46] wow all those metapackages, how did this one get uninstalled on your laptop? [12:51] mgedmin: iirc either 20.0 or 22.0 dist upgrade froze (no ctrl-at f2 terminal etc) so I had to force power off/on. So maybe that's what broke the upgrade [12:52] ouch [12:52] maybe also apt install ubuntu-desktop^ just in case something else important got removed [12:52] rn I'm on xfce and for this older laptop it's a lot more stable [12:52] hmmm let me see [12:53] you may not want to do that if you use xfce instead of the default gnome desktop [12:53] but the linux-generic metapackage is important for getting kernel security updates [12:56] mgedmin I was on gnome-desktop on this laptop. switched to xfce earlier today to see if it's any better [12:56] so if I install ubuntu-desktop* will it break xfce? [12:56] you can easy install other desktops on your ubuntu flavour [12:57] https://dpaste.com/4YKKE66GQ [12:57] but purge could be another story, might result in a frankenubuntu mix [12:57] no, desktops should coexist [12:57] it will just take a bunch of disk space and time that you might grudge? idk [13:00] wth I've been through some tough stuff the last couple days. might as well go down the frankenbuntu rabbit hole [13:08] after the ubuntu-desktop* install the good news is all desktops work good. occasional crash reports but not as bad as it used to [13:09] Guest24: you can checkout /var/crash dir to see whats going on exactly [13:10] the only quirk is the boot splash screen it's still stuck in 640x480 res. it's until lightdm starts that res is proper [13:11] lotuspsychje ah thanks https://dpaste.com/CRNY9GF62 [13:13] think the xfce panel crash bug is a known one already for some time, crashes but continues to run [13:13] yeah gstreamer is the thing I need to fix it seems [13:18] apt-get install gir1.2-gst* and I'm not seeing any crashes now [13:20] I think I'm good now!

I currenly have to select the 6.8.0-44 kernel as the 6.8.0-45 one gives me a black screen [14:06] Natt0: all the installed kernels should be listed in the boot menu (under the advanced options submenu), and you should be able to prevent a kernel from being uninstalled if you mark it as manually installed [14:06] you can do that with `apt install linux-image-6.8.0-44` [14:06] (or with apt-mark manual ...) [14:07] do report a bug about the black screen please [14:23] hey guys, can you help me figure out why this is not working? https://pastebin.com/raw/FNvXbefT [14:25] learner|2: you REALLY should look into ansible [14:25] i will later [14:25] let me get this project done, and i promise i will learn ansible [14:26] learner|2: you already asked in #bash. That's the appropriate place for help with your bash script. No need to cross-post here since it's not ubuntu-specific [14:26] ok [14:27] i pasted here, cause i got a pasteban response in bash [14:27] suggest using read -p "Please provide password: " -s email_password2 [14:28] Thanks the apt-mark manual worked, and I also solved the black screen on that kernel by removing all nvidia packages (it's a laptop with both intel and nvidia), somehow it's tied in on the kernel version [14:28] mgedmin: thanks [14:28] but also doveadm pw will ask for the password itself if you don't provide one, so why this dance? [14:29] it's because i'm writing an automated script, eventually all these will be provided via a config file [14:29] as for the rest, I don't know any context -- are the first three lines part of a script? is the last command not part of the same script? are you setting a variable in a script and expecting to use the value after the script exits? [14:29] it's going to be an upstart server script [14:29] uh [14:29] upstart? [14:29] learner|2: why not systemd? [14:30] yes, i'm using linode vps bashscript pattern [14:30] you can deploy an ubuntu server, and then get all the things installed there and have a running server [14:30] * mgedmin thinks they meant startup [14:30] no idea what that is [14:30] kind of a precursor to creating docker images [14:30] people still use upstart? [14:31] Final release: 1.13.2 / September 4, 2014; 10 years ago [14:31] oof. [14:32] learning upstart in 2024 may not be practical. [14:32] i still need help with why the password doesn't seem to be passed / stored with the $ directive [14:33] passwords passed on the command line end up in your bash history, don't they? [14:34] yeah thats why you should change password interactively [14:34] it might, but i can clear the bash history at the end of the installation [14:35] but I think there is a cleanup for bash, Mikrotik uses that for example (but could be custom in their case) [14:35] that is the binary can like "delete last history line" [14:36] learner|2 is getting help in #bash [14:36] learner|2: please stop crossposting [14:36] better hope nobody's tailing history i guess [14:38] the problem here is that i know doveadm gets the password, cause in this example it works: TMP1="hi" && TMP2=$(echo "$TMP1") && echo "$TMP2" this returns hi [14:41] 45 [14:43] JonathanD: woah, long time lurker :) [14:43] it's been 2 years since you accidentally posted in here last :) [14:43] Hah :) [14:43] How's it going?
