[19:54] <SlayerGoury> ioria: this may be the issue, but when I start this service it locks my screen with gdm3 and refuses to log me in, so I have to go and disable it back.
[19:55] <ioria> SlayerGoury, honestly,  your issue it's clear to me
[19:55] <SlayerGoury> pragmaticenigma: nothing could result in such behaviour
[19:55] <pragmaticenigma> SlayerGoury: I'm going to go with the masses here... Your machine is beyond help, the going recommendation to start with a clean install stands
[19:56] <SlayerGoury> pragmaticenigma: I'd like to disagree with you on this point
[19:56] <SlayerGoury> ioria: can you please clarify it to me?
[19:56] <usr13> jayjo: Add a line to your sources.list pointing at your repository.
[19:56] <ioria> SlayerGoury, nope, you need to clarify to me :þ
[19:57] <ioria> SlayerGoury, i mean .... what 's your problem ?
[19:57] <jayjo> usr13: I just mean a git repo, not an apt package
[19:58] <usr13> O
[19:58] <ioria> SlayerGoury, i left you with a shortcut issue, iirc
[19:59] <SlayerGoury> ioria: isn't something being clear to you means you know what's going on? I thought I know how English language works..
[19:59] <SlayerGoury> My alt+shif combo stops working when I lock screen
[19:59] <tgm4883> SlayerGoury: it would appear to be a typo
[19:59] <ioria> SlayerGoury, yes, and i told you t ouse Win + Space
[19:59] <SlayerGoury> That's one most annoying issue I have since 16.04→18.04 upgrade
[20:00] <SlayerGoury> ioria: and I told you super+space works, but not on the lock screen and I don't wan't to use it.
[20:00] <SlayerGoury> *want shouldn't have "'"
[20:01] <ioria> SlayerGoury, not on the lock screen ....
[20:02] <SlayerGoury> ioria: I want my alt+shift to continue working on my lock screen and I don't want to change it
[20:03] <SlayerGoury> the problem is not in my alt key, the problem is in something that messes with it
[20:03] <SlayerGoury> I just can't find waht it is
[20:03] <ioria> SlayerGoury, probably you can't use that combo anymore
[20:04] <pragmaticenigma> what is alt+Shift even supposed to do?
[20:04] <ioria> SlayerGoury, infact   alt+shift does nothing on my 18.04 system
[20:04] <tgm4883> I'm not sure any keyboard shortcuts work on the lock screen
[20:04] <SlayerGoury> ioria: I'd like this to be fixed
[20:05] <ioria> pragmaticenigma, i think it's an old keyboard layout switcher
[20:05] <SlayerGoury> pragmaticenigma: whatever I command it as I am the master of this system
[20:05] <SlayerGoury> tgm4883: those're supposed to work
[20:05] <ioria> i see ... it's personal :)
[20:05] <tgm4883> SlayerGoury: They don't appear to be working on my system here
[20:06] <SlayerGoury> It's a bug in free software, it can't be personal
[20:06] <ioria> SlayerGoury, maybe it is
[20:06] <SlayerGoury> tgm4883: so we both are affected by this bug then
[20:06] <pragmaticenigma> okay, with that comment SlayerGoury, I'm done trying to help you
[20:06] <tgm4883> SlayerGoury: sounds like you need to file a bug then
[20:06] <OerHeks> SlayerGoury, so you upgraded unity desktop from 16.04 to 18.04 ..?
[20:06] <SlayerGoury> tgm4883: the bug is already filed
[20:06] <tgm4883> SlayerGoury: link?
[20:07] <SlayerGoury> OerHeks: yes
[20:07] <SlayerGoury> tgm4883: all over the internet, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/1759462
[20:07] <OerHeks> but that uses lightdm
[20:07] <SlayerGoury> so do I
[20:07] <pragmaticenigma> SlayerGoury: If the bug is already filed... what are you doing here asking for help on it? We can't fix something that is known to be broken.
[20:07] <tgm4883> SlayerGoury: that's not the same as "keyboard shortcuts don't work on the lockscreen"
[20:08] <OerHeks> Budgie:GNOME .. not unity
[20:08] <SlayerGoury> pragmaticenigma: why shouldn't I?
[20:08] <SlayerGoury> That's just what I found, now I also found this one and whole lot of another issues that wasn't clear to me before
[20:09] <pragmaticenigma> SlayerGoury: This is a community of volunteers. Very few of us are involved with the development of Ubuntu. Bugs go to the developers to be addressed and worked on. The best we can do here would be to confirm that you are affected.
[20:09] <SlayerGoury> Thanks for not helping me to identify this bug
[20:09] <fleabeard> Jesus, this guy
[20:09] <fleabeard> is he for real?
[20:09] <tgm4883> I feel like we're getting a bit combative here and I'll ask that we all relax a little
[20:10] <SlayerGoury> pragmaticenigma: I know, but I'd also love if you wouldn't refuse help because someone just happen to not have any problem with the system for 12 years.
[20:10] <pragmaticenigma> fleabeard: Please mind the community guidelines
[20:10] <SlayerGoury> SlayerGoury: just say you don't know what to do in this case.
[20:10] <ioria> SlayerGoury, use another shortcut
[20:10] <pragmaticenigma> SlayerGoury: We're not refusing help... We can't help fix something that is broken in the application
[20:10] <tgm4883> ioria: he can't. Shortcuts aren't working on the lockscreen
[20:11] <tgm4883> ioria: all shortcuts
[20:11] <SlayerGoury> ioria: I don't like using another shortcut
[20:11] <SlayerGoury> I understand that this workaround will work, but so will my 16.04 backup
[20:11] <pragmaticenigma> SlayerGoury: To be helpful, you could attempt to see if another shortcut works or not. That goes a long way for this channel to help you figure things out.
[20:11] <SlayerGoury> pragmaticenigma: I already did that
[20:11] <tgm4883> pragmaticenigma: we've already determined that they dont
[20:12] <ioria> SlayerGoury,  ok, i got that .... but it's tru that any other shortcut not working in lock screen ?
[20:12] <ioria> *true
[20:12] <SlayerGoury> pragmaticenigma: I repeat, other shortcuts work, but not on the lockscreen
[20:12] <SlayerGoury> I tried super+space and ctrl+shift, those work after unlocking but not on the lock screen
[20:13] <SlayerGoury> but I don't like those
[20:13] <SlayerGoury> I am sorry for having personal preferences and also a personality, but this is who I am.
[20:14] <SlayerGoury> Last time I checked Ubuntu License it was fine to have a personality
[20:14] <pragmaticenigma> SlayerGoury: Then don't take issue when others express their personality and preferences either
[20:14] <SlayerGoury> pragmaticenigma: I don't
[20:14] <ioria> SlayerGoury,  ok.... atm what's in use gdm2 or lightdm ?
[20:14] <ioria> gdm3
[20:15] <SlayerGoury> pragmaticenigma: I totally respect this channel's inability to help me, but please address this as inability to help with the issue and not me personally
[20:15] <viper474> While I don't use it now, I'm considering trying the Dvorak keyboard layout, but has it since been removed from Ubuntu 18.04? Can't find it in the Input Sources under English.
[20:15] <pragmaticenigma> SlayerGoury: Watch it with the hostility... no one wants to help someone that's going to be conforntational
[20:15] <SlayerGoury> because refusing to help me because of who I am is highly insulting and our loed and savior RMS explicitly asked to not insult each other.
[20:16] <pragmaticenigma> SlayerGoury: stay on topic
[20:16] <tgm4883> pragmaticenigma: SlayerGoury let's keep it with support please
[20:16] <ioria> SlayerGoury, are you using gdm3 or lightdm now ?
[20:16] <SlayerGoury> ioria: seems like it's lightdm
[20:17] <tgm4883> ioria: I confirmed it's not working on lightdm as well
[20:18] <ioria> SlayerGoury, tgm4883   i see ...   cat /etc/X11/default-display-manager
[20:18] <SlayerGoury> It does work when I'm not logged in, but not on the lock screen
[20:18] <SlayerGoury> I don't know if the lock screen is lightdm or just something that looks like it
[20:18] <ioria> SlayerGoury,  cat /etc/X11/default-display-manager
[20:18] <tgm4883> SlayerGoury: a quick test. On the lock screen if you go to "switch user" does it work there?
[20:18] <SlayerGoury>  /usr/sbin/lightdm
[20:18] <tgm4883> SlayerGoury: I'm thinking yes, as it just worked there for me
[20:19] <SlayerGoury> hmm.. I'll go and try
[20:19] <jayjo> I've enabled sharing on my mac osx, how can I access the drive on my ubuntu machine so I can copy files over on my local network? Is there a better way?
[20:19] <ioria> SlayerGoury,  ok,  and what's the result if you use gdm3 ?
[20:19] <SlayerGoury> oh, now ctrl+alt+L doesn't want to work =(
[20:19] <SlayerGoury> gdm3 just refuses to log me in
[20:20] <ioria> SlayerGoury,  so you have bigger problem than the shortcut
[20:20] <SlayerGoury> no, swithing user doesn't make it to work
[20:21] <SlayerGoury> ioria: probably yes
[20:21] <ioria> SlayerGoury,  i used unity with gdm3 on 18.04 without issues (so far)
[20:21] <SlayerGoury> so I'd love your help to identify the problem
[20:21] <SlayerGoury> I don't mind using gdm3, I just don't know where to start with fixes
[20:22] <SlayerGoury> for example, when I dpkg-reconfigure it it says it can't restart the service
[20:22] <ioria> SlayerGoury,  never tried with the keyboard switcher, but give me a minute  brb
[20:22] <SlayerGoury> but if I start it manually, it locks me out and refuses to log me back in
[20:22] <tgm4883> unless we're having different issues, I think the issue is with gnome-screensaver rather than lightdm/gdm
[20:23] <SlayerGoury> If only I knew what the issue is T_T
[20:23] <pragmaticenigma> jayjo: You have to enable sharing on Ubuntu to access your Ubuntu files from the Mac
[20:24] <pragmaticenigma> jayjo_: You have to enable sharing on Ubuntu to access your Ubuntu files from the Mac
[20:25] <pragmaticenigma> jayjo: jayjo_: once enabled from the mac in finder, you can use smb://{ip_address_of_ubuntu}/{shared_folder} to access the shared files
[20:25] <hyperion101010> people how can i install packages like intel_drm
[20:25] <teamspeakuser> Hi
[20:25] <hyperion101010> automatically
[20:26] <ioria> SlayerGoury, i can confirm , it does not work
[20:26] <SlayerGoury> ioria: okay. Any idea how to make stop not working?
[20:26] <SlayerGoury> *make it stop
[20:27] <ioria> SlayerGoury, if also lightdm fails, i think there is no solution atm ... but it works on gnome-shell (btw, why don't you use it ?)
[20:28] <pragmaticenigma> hyperion101010: Can you provide more information on what you are trying to do exactly?
[20:29] <ioria> SlayerGoury, i mean the default DE on 18.04 is gnome-shell ... dont' you like it ?
[20:30] <SlayerGoury> ioria: I don't like it
[20:30] <SlayerGoury> No, I hate it
[20:30] <hyperion101010> ok here i tried to install the libdrm newest version , but my build system says it is still older
[20:30] <ioria> ok
[20:31] <hyperion101010> it can't detect my new build/installed file , how can i configure it
[20:31] <SlayerGoury> If anythiing, I'd prefer swithichg to that gnome2 fork
[20:31] <pragmaticenigma> hyperion101010: are you trying to install from .deb or using apt?
[20:31] <hyperion101010> .deb
[20:32] <SlayerGoury> But I also do like unity very much, so I'd love keeping it
[20:32] <hyperion101010> is there anyway i can install intel_libdrm using apt
[20:32] <pragmaticenigma> where was the .deb file obtained?
[20:32] <hyperion101010> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libdrm/2.4.97-1
[20:33] <ioria> SlayerGoury, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-screensaver/+bug/1244548
[20:33] <pragmaticenigma> hyperion101010: What version of Ubuntu are you running?
[20:33] <usr13> hyperion101010: Do a search for it
[20:33] <hyperion101010> 18.04
[20:34] <hyperion101010> for what usr13
[20:34] <usr13> hyperion101010: libdrm
[20:34] <pragmaticenigma> hyperion101010: That particular link you provided is for Ubuntu 19.04 which is in beta right now. It's not going to work with 29
[20:34] <ioria> SlayerGoury,   try the #87 commnet
[20:34] <pragmaticenigma> work with 18.04
[20:34] <usr13> hyperion101010: apt search
[20:34] <hyperion101010> ok
[20:34] <pragmaticenigma> hyperion101010: Is there a specific reason you are trying to manually install this? what are your requirements?
[20:34] <hyperion101010> educate me here , i don't know about the functionality
[20:35] <SlayerGoury> ioria: <3
[20:35] <ioria> удачи!
[20:37] <pragmaticenigma> hyperion101010: Did you see my question?
[20:37] <SlayerGoury> ioria: now I can't switch my layout at all =(
[20:37] <ioria> SlayerGoury,  reverse it
[20:38] <SlayerGoury> ioria: reverse what?
[20:38] <hyperion101010> yeah beacuse i din't had the knowledge of apt search , but now i am working on it
[20:38] <hyperion101010> thanks usr13
[20:38] <SlayerGoury> also what is Mod2?
[20:38] <ioria> SlayerGoury,  what you just did
[20:38] <hyperion101010> and pragm... i am sorry the is so long :)
[20:39] <pragmaticenigma> Yes hyperion101010... but I'm trying to understand how or why you are trying to install that particular library
[20:39] <hyperion101010> i was going to do a build of mesa
[20:39] <pragmaticenigma> hyperion101010: Ah, okay... that makes sense
[20:40] <hyperion101010> which is again required to build mozilla's servo , for which i have made a patch
[20:40] <hyperion101010> so much work
[20:40] <ioria> SlayerGoury, number lock
[20:40] <SlayerGoury> ioria: so the combo is alt+shift+numlock?
[20:41] <SlayerGoury> O.o
[20:42] <SlayerGoury> still, now switching doesn't work for me at all T_T
[20:42] <ioria> SlayerGoury, Alt + Mod2 + Shift L
[20:43] <SlayerGoury> ioria: I don't have Mod2 key on my keyboard
[20:43] <hyperion101010> pragma... it still is old
[20:43] <ioria> SlayerGoury, it's the numlock ... every kb has
[20:43] <hyperion101010> requires .97 i got only .95
[20:44] <SlayerGoury> ioria: numlock says Num Lock for me, not Mod2
[20:44] <SlayerGoury> and it doesn't work either
[20:45] <SlayerGoury> k, resetting ccsm module made it work again
[20:47] <pragmaticenigma> hyperion101010: Ubuntu doesn't always have the latest... I'm not sure what to recommend for a build environment. Ubuntu (and upstream Debian) goes for stability which means sometimes the latest isn't available.
[20:47] <SlayerGoury> but using numlock in that combo doesn't help still
[20:47] <pragmaticenigma> hyperion101010: You might want to reach out to the Mozilla community for help on setting up a recommended build environment
[20:47] <hyperion101010> yeah well it is fine ,
[20:47] <hyperion101010> sure thanks for your help
[20:53] <SlayerGoury> and I'm back
[20:54] <SlayerGoury> thanks for no help and also for all your effort, I finally found a solution myself
[20:54] <SlayerGoury> add-apt-repository ppa:unity7maintainers/unity7-desktop seems to be what we all need
[20:55] <pragmaticenigma> SlayerGoury: thank you for sharing, that will help everyone in the future
[20:55] <SlayerGoury> also all these shortcut bugs are apparently a common bug people rarely encounter because americans don't switch keyboard layouts much, but it's known and fixed, but somehow not in the LTS
[20:56] <SlayerGoury> pragmaticenigma: I hope it will. Just kick those universe maintainers to finally update those packages already
[20:57] <SlayerGoury> Also there was some other fixes for some other minor bugs I encountered after this upgrade (like drawing bugs and such stuff)
[20:57] <SlayerGoury> So I guess this weeks ubuntu donation goes to the unity7maintainers instead
[20:58] <pragmaticenigma> SlayerGoury: Canonical/Ubuntu is moving away from Unity desktop. You may want to prepare for the changes to come.
[20:58] <SlayerGoury> Widh you all love and good night and thanks for helping me with this problem identification
[20:58] <teward> pragmaticenigma: s/is moving/has pretty much moved/
[20:58] <SlayerGoury> pragmaticenigma: already preparing my forkey
[20:59] <SlayerGoury> *widh = wish
[20:59]  * SlayerGoury have to reattach herself back to her keyboard
[20:59] <bray90820_> Maybe someone here can help me Even-though I added "min protocol = SMB2" under [global] in my samba config file I think it's still defaulting to v1
[21:00] <adrian_1908> Hey, can anyone confirm that URL autocomplete (e.g. you type 'u' and it fills the rest to ubuntu.com) for Firefox (65) is still working?
[21:00] <adrian_1908> Trying to figure out if this changed, or if i did something to my config.
[21:01] <SlayerGoury> adrian_1908: why wouldn't it? Works for me just fine.
[21:01] <UnoCualquiera> hi
[21:02] <pragmaticenigma> adrian_1908: Still works for me.. did you recently clear your browser history? the autocomplete is based on bookmarks and history
[21:02] <SlayerGoury> adrian_1908: make sure you have your history, otherwise there's nothing to complete automatically
[21:03] <pragmaticenigma> bray90820_: How are you able to confirm that it is switching to cifs protocol v1
[21:03] <adrian_1908> pragmaticenigma: yeah I did and suspect that's what caused it, but I can't seem to get my recent history to get picked up. Reading up on how to enforce priority now, that might work.
[21:04] <bray90820_> pragmaticenigma: By default windows only uses SMBv2 but when I enabled SMBv1 in windows it worked
[21:05] <pragmaticenigma> bray90820_: Windows will auto negotiate, but what you did in windows was set the minimum required. if the server only support v2 then windows will connect via v2
[21:06] <bray90820_> It didn't work when SMBv1 was disabled but did when when it was enabled
[21:07] <pragmaticenigma> bray90820_: please pastebin your samba config file... make sure to remove any sensitive system information like passwords or other items you don't want publically seen
[21:10] <bray90820_> pragmaticenigma: https://pastebin.com/raw/cR5DEWMY
[21:16] <pragmaticenigma> bray90820_: I'm uncertain why that would be. I'd recommend "tail -f /var/log/samba/{most current file here}" and see if it spits out anything useful. I've gotta sign off. I wish you luck
[21:16] <pragmaticenigma> bray90820_: with that tail... trying the different configs from windows to see if it generates any messages
[21:18] <bray90820_> When you say most current file do you mean my most current samba.conf?
[21:18] <pragmaticenigma> bray90820_: no... most current file in the logs
[21:20] <bray90820_> The logs would be nmbd right?
[21:20] <bray90820_> No nevermind don't listen to me
[21:20] <pragmaticenigma> bray90820_: samba creates multiple log files... I'm not sure if it .nmbd .smbd or the ip address of the machine attempting to connect
[21:20] <pragmaticenigma> is going to have the helpful message for you
[21:20] <bray90820_> Yeah I found it so never mind
[21:23] <bray90820_> Ok so I thought I had found it but that clearly wasn't it
[21:23] <bazzle31> Hey guys!
[21:26] <tyuiop> hello there
[21:26] <tyuiop>  i m now in 18.04
[21:27] <bray90820_> Anyone else have an explanation to why samba would default to  V1 eventhough I have v2 enabled in my config file
[21:27] <tyuiop> i got two partitions md1 and md2
[21:28] <tyuiop> from /dev/sda
[21:29] <tyuiop> i would like to  resize /dev/md2 in order reajust /dev/md1
[21:29] <bazzle31> Is this ubuntu's IRC channel?
[21:29] <tyuiop> can you tell me to do so without lvm ?
[21:29] <tyuiop> no it isn't bazzle31
[21:30] <bazzle31> Really? what channel is this? any link to Ubuntu's offical one?
[21:30] <EBrarian> Gilets jaunes: Appel à la révolution
[21:30] <teward> bazzle31: tyuiop is trolling.  this is the Ubuntu Support Channel, yes.
[21:31] <bazzle31> lol come on seriously
[21:32] <tyuiop> no i m not
[21:32] <teward> bazzle31: read /topic
[21:32] <tyuiop> troll only trolls
[21:32] <tyuiop> seems you are the one teward
[21:33] <tyuiop> btw why so stupid question like that ?
[21:34] <JimBuntu> bazzle31, This is the channel for volunteer based support of Ubuntu
[21:35] <bazzle31> Thank you JimBuntu, got it!
[22:12] <jayjo> I'm trying to allow my laptop to ssh to my desktop on my local network. How do I associate an account for my laptop and distribute it a key?
[22:13] <jayjo> following along with these guides: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH/OpenSSH/Configuring
[22:13] <EBrarian> Gilets jaunes: Appel à la révolution
[22:18] <oerheks> jayjo, basicly, after creating keys on your laptop; https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH/OpenSSH/Keys#Transfer_Client_Key_to_Host
[22:18] <oerheks> and then fiddle around disable password
[22:19] <oerheks> * on the server sshd
[22:21] <jayjo> so the first time I put my laptops public key on the server I still just use a username and password to authenticate?
[22:21] <jayjo> if I want to use ssh-copy-id?
[22:21] <oerheks> yes, like you logged in to push tose keys
[22:22] <oerheks> now you need sudo rights in that ssh session, to change the server side
[22:22] <oerheks> restart the service, and you are good
[22:25] <imi> hi
[22:25] <imi> is there a more modern alternative to xmessage in ubuntu?
[22:26] <tomreyn> imi: notify-send
[22:29] <evulish> crontab -e creates cronjobs for that'll be run as the current user?
[22:29] <tomreyn> evulish: correct
[22:30] <evulish> hmm
[22:30] <evulish> i have a cronjob set up but it doesn't seem to be completing.. when i run the shell script alone it works fine
[22:30] <evulish> guess i need to find some logs
[22:31] <ryan_> 111
[22:31] <tomreyn> evulish: you may need to have it write some logs. note that unless you take measures to change this, cron tabs usually just run in a 'dumb' sh shell.
[22:31] <oerheks> use full paths
[22:32] <evulish> yeah it is, it's running a docker exec command, i wonder if there's an env variable or something it doesn't have access to
[22:34] <tomreyn> write a wrapper script, have it dump the environment to a file first of all, and you'll know.
[22:36] <evulish> if a cron job has an error, it gets sent to the users mail, right
[22:37] <tomreyn> if it generates any output, this output is directed to the user, by mail. if delivery is not possible, it'll end up in /var/spool/mail/user
[22:38] <UnoCualquiera> where can I find the 32-bit version of Ubuntu 18.04LTS?
[22:39] <tomreyn> UnoCualquiera: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BionicBeaver/ReleaseNotes#Other_highlights_since_16.04_LTS
[22:41] <evulish> ah i think i figured it out, my docker  cmd was trying to use an interactive shell
[22:42] <Bashing-om> UnoCualquiera: ^^ (x)ubuntu still has a 32 bit image:  https://xubuntu.org/download.
[22:47] <bodom> Hi there! The kernel is spamming a "do_IRQ: 3.33 No irq handler for vector". Is there a way to squelch this message?
[22:50] <tomreyn> bodom: which kernel?
[22:51] <bodom> tomreyn: 4.18.0-13-generic #14-Ubuntu SMP but kernel version doesn't really make a difference
[22:53] <tomreyn> bodom can you show: journalctl -p4 -b
[22:54] <bodom> tomreyn: it's 92.300 lines, are you sure?
[22:55] <tomreyn> bodom: did you omit  -b ?
[22:55] <bodom> tomreyn: no
[22:56] <tomreyn> bodom: impressive; so this returns an even higher number? dmesg | wc -l
[22:56] <tomreyn> actually scratch that, it'll be rotated. do a fresh boot and run the journalctl command again
[22:57] <Silmarilion> Hi, I am trying to install the OS on an existing encrypted LVM. So far I have unlocked the encrypted device with cryptsetup, run the installer and installed the OS. I am trying now to configure the grup to unlock the device on boot, so far I have created /etc/crypttab and filled it in and after that updated the initramfs. What else needs to be done?
[22:57] <Silmarilion> grub*
[22:58] <tomreyn> bodom: another suggestion:   journalctl -p4 -b | head -n 1000 | nc termbin.com 9999
[22:59] <bodom> tomreyn: here is a shorted version, just add "no irq handler for vector" some ten thousands times: https://pastebin.com/Q2bss4H2
[22:59] <bodom> tomreyn: dmesg line count is 4496
[23:02] <tomreyn> bodom: IIRC those messages are spurious, but they are obviously too many. you have a bunch of ACPI errors, have you looked for a bios upgrade?
[23:03] <tomreyn> bodom: i know its old hardware but make sure you have the latest stable.
[23:03] <bodom> tomreyn: i've been trying anything, except a BIOS upgrade… could it be so easy? :D Let me check, ty
[23:04] <tomreyn> bodom: there's something else you probably haven't tried, yet: http://iam.tj/prototype/enhancements/Windows-acpi_osi.html
[23:05] <qwebirc13306> Others having problem with pptp-linux? When doing POFF, network is not reset so cant ping out
[23:07] <bodom> tomreyn: i'll not tell my hardware you called it old. Anyway, there is a newer bios, i'll try it and then check the very interesting acpi hack
[23:07] <bodom> tomreyn: thank you!
[23:08] <tomreyn> bodom: you're welcome. here's something else i just found: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/367503/do-irq-0-163-no-irq-handler-for-vector-irq-1 - but this means giving up some functionality.
[23:08] <bodom> tomreyn: that has been tried long time ago
[23:09] <tomreyn> ok ;-)
[23:14] <colemickens> For 18.04, and Java, do I want OpenJDK or Zulu?
[23:15] <colemickens> Also, thanks Oracle, for making this a question.
[23:17] <oerheks> we advise openjdk, but sure you can use the oracle binairy bob
[23:17] <oerheks> !java
[23:17] <tomreyn> colemickens: openjdk is in ubuntu 18.04
[23:17] <colemickens> oerheks: was more curious if Zulu was needed/used in Linux since it's used in WIndows now. Definitely don't want to use Oracle.
[23:19] <tomreyn> colemickens: there's also corretto if you want yet more choice
[23:19] <colemickens> okay, thank you
[23:20] <oerheks> zulu is the commercial vesion of openjdk, oke ( Given that there will be no free LTS release from Oracle as of JDK 11 and that JDK 8 public updates (for commercial users) end in Jan 2019 we are seeing a lot of interest in Zulu
[23:20] <oerheks> 1st time someone mentions it here
[23:21] <colemickens> "Zulu is 100% open source and freely downloadable. "
[23:22] <colemickens> idk, I don't have time to understand what horrible things Oracle have done to create this much confusion. I do appreciate the help though.
[23:22] <tomreyn> https://aws.amazon.com/corretto/faqs/#support
[23:23] <colemickens> nice
[23:23] <colemickens> that's awesome actually, surprised I hadn't heard of it.
[23:24] <tomreyn> but this basically just means: install default-jdk
[23:27] <colemickens> yeah, I'm seeing that now. (Gnome Software is a huge disappointment). I'm just going to have him open the terminal and do it the old fashioned way.
[23:27] <colemickens> Trying to get my dad setup with OpenHAB over a video call :)
[23:29] <Younder> I've been using linux for goons years. I could bee you pap colemickens
[23:30] <Younder> perhaps an ancient can help
[23:30] <colemickens> oh it's fine, I just am not well versed in ubuntu-isms these days
[23:31] <colemickens> also, it's kind of weird that you use the word "goons". we have named our computers after that for 20 years. (biggoon/goonr8r, etc)
[23:32] <mfoolb> sorry for OT question.. I've tried to join ##linux channel but I can't because I'm banned (?!) don't know what happened, is there a way to understand?
[23:33] <nthdev> Have to register mfoolb
[23:34] <Younder> mfoolb, Firt don't panic. It happens. Second try to find out who runs the cannel, email him/her
[23:34] <evulish> mfoolb: *tor-sasl* is banned
[23:34] <evulish> and you match
[23:34] <evulish> ##linux: ban *!*@*tor-sasl* [by sauvin!~sauvin@about/linux/staff/sauvin, 2077998 secs ago]
[23:35] <Younder> spelling cxorrecty dont hart
[23:35] <mfoolb> evulish: why is that?
[23:35] <oerheks> mfoolb, ask in #freenode
[23:36] <mfoolb> oerheks: ok thnx
[23:36] <evulish> no idea, guess they don't want people using tor, which is what i assume that means?
[23:36] <oerheks> oh tor completely banned, that is new to me
[23:37] <fleabeard> I got global freenode ban messages connecting from one of my NordVPN locations
[23:37] <Younder> Tor is fin, but be ware. NSA sees using it as a call to chrime. It is mostly used in germany.
[23:38] <oerheks> so  it is not an ubuntu issue
[23:38] <Younder> Seriously you go from beeing annedle in a haystach to being a 'glowing' needle
[23:38] <rdh> hey guys how do i switch out of graphic mode to boot up init to unlock my drive? after selecting what to boot my screen goes black and i dont have any output as to what is going on.
[23:39] <Younder> I use <ctrl>-<alt>-1
[23:40] <rdh> ya that doesn't do anything
[23:40] <rdh> just a black screen
[23:40] <rdh> and i chrooted and reinstalled the kernel... and grub...
[23:40] <Younder> I use <ctrl>-<alt><F1>
[23:41] <rdh> the weird thing it it was just working a day ago
[23:41] <rdh> Nothing
[23:41] <Younder> for what is is worths i just tried it and it doeesnt work for me either
[23:41] <rdh> so there must be something missing from initramfs
[23:41] <Silmarilion> rdh maybe this helps https://askubuntu.com/questions/293028/how-can-i-install-ubuntu-encrypted-with-luks-with-dual-boot/293029?newreg=c5913742734c495cad3f148f3cbabd34 . It solved my issue with custom lvm/luks setup
[23:41] <rdh> haha ok younder
[23:42] <rdh> Silmarilion: ok so try rebuilding initramfs?
[23:43] <Silmarilion> yep
[23:43] <rdh> lol i guess that makes more sense then the kernel...
[23:43] <rdh> i figured it would do that for me
[23:45] <Younder> FUNNY, I write kenel drivers for embedded systems, I should know this..
[23:46] <Younder> I ha sjsut always worked in the past.
[23:46] <Younder> just
[23:57] <rdh> Silmarilion: same issue :(
[23:59] <rdh> even trying to boot recovery initramfs goes to black screen.
