How does XUbuntu detect plugged in monitors?

December 10, 2018, 11:53 pm

For background info on the problem I am having, please see https://askubuntu.com/questions/1099...ion-is-failing

How does XUbuntu detect monitors? Which service is responsible? Does it use cached data at all?

I ask the last because despite disabling my on-board graphics card in hardware, plugging the monitor into it causes XUbuntu to detect the monitor and restore my signal.

I am also curious why xrandr on my main PC (which has 3 display ports, 1 HDMI and 1 DVI-D) reports 6 display ports, 1 HDMI and 1 DVI-D while my boy's PC (which has 1 VGA, 1 S-video, and 1 DVI-I on the PCI graphics card) reports 1 VGA, 1 TV and 2 DVI-I. It is almost as if the port type that has a monitor plugged in is doubled up in the list.


Anyway, if I am to fix this issue, and no-one else seems to know or care what the problem might be, I need to know where to start, so this post is a request for general information regarding monitor detection so I at least know which bits of code to dig into and try to debug.

I will be very grateful for any information and help that anyone might give me.

[ubuntu_studio] font problem in sudo

Hi all,

I have a weird problem, I don't find anything about it using google. Applications running as sudo loose their fonts! (ubuntu studio 18.04, using Gnome here)
Yes, they loose them, even gradually. When launched it seems all ok, but when performing a search in synaptic the fonts turn into boxes, like in the attachment.
When running it without sudo from terminal, I have no issues at all, but then I can't install anything of course...

As a test I started nautilus as sudo, and I got the same behavior at first, also when performing a search fonts turned into boxes (not when clicking on files or folders) but when the search was finished, the fonts gradually returned. This does not happen in synaptic though.

I know, a weird issue and I have no clue what could cause this, any ideas?

thanks,
Bart

[SOLVED] Can not Write to Documents DIrectory

I have just had to rebuild my PC. It is dual boot with Windows 10 (yuk) with a common shared Documents folder/directory.

I have a mount point "Documents" and an fstab (/etc/fstb) entry
HTML Code:
#Entry for /dev/sda3 :
UUID=2104697C2776893B        /home/baroni/Desktop/Documents        ntfs-3g        defaults,rw,locale=en_GB.UTF-8        0        0
It worked fine, but recently I have been working a lot in Windows as there are 3D image slicing tools I need to use and now I fine that the Documents folder/directory is owned by root and not writable. This is becoming a pain as documents build up on my desktop.

Any ideas how to fix this, please?

Could it be Windows is locking it? I recall there was such a facility in Windows to aid fast booting....

vsftpd fails for my user

I cannot upload a file using SFTP using the user i setup, as it gives me a Server Error.
But, if i set my SFTP logon and password to the root user, files upload as expected.

I have set all CHOWN and CHMOD settings that I can find on the internet, but I still am unable to upload a file using my ftpuser that I setup.
root works OK, but ftpuser just results in a zero sized file with a server error message.

I could just use root, but that is just annoying to have to do it that way.

This is week two of trying this :-(

No sound in the windows programm Aura - the sounds of the forest

Hello.

There is a program for creating a pleasant sound background - Aura, which worked quite normally in Ubuntu until version 18.04.
Starting with this version, the sound is gone. The program writes what works, outputs sound through pulseaudio. In the wine settings there is a program's tab in the audio output section. Some other programs work with sound in wine. And this one does not want. When starting from the terminal, a warning appears only about the lack of freetype font support.

wine-3.0 (Ubuntu 3.0-1ubuntu1)

eugene@eugene-H61H2-M2:~$ wine /home/eugene/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Aura/Aura.exe
(no any output)

Can someone help me with this situation? Sorry for my English.

On the instructions I found for doing this on your website there is section that says normal install,you are supposed to
turn off secure boot .
3 times I have tried to install Ubuntu 18.04 LTS but the section normal install,you are supposed to turn off secure boot does not appear .So it wants to use the whole disk,and I never get to section Install Ubuntu alongside Windows Boot.

How do I Install Ubuntu alongside Windows Boot??

GUFW rules don't override general settings when going with the whitelisting approach

Hello, fiends!




I am trying to barr my computer from the internet when I play my steam games so they don't phone back home, so I can make my little statement about consent. But I want my browser to have online access so I can listen to music.


I have the GUFW Firewall. The default general settings are -Incoming: Deny, -Outgoing: Allow.


When I click on the report after a fresh boot, I get exactly 30 entries - ports: 111, 123, 137, 138, 139, 3***** for rpc.statd, 445 simbd, 5***** for avahi-daemon and rpc statd, 631 for cups-browsed, 677 rpcbind, and 68 dhclient
I imagine all these are normal things, though, reading about some, maybe I should also block them, but I'm afraid to brick something.


Anyway, I booted up Steam, and two entries showed up as 27036 ports. Very nice. So I clicked on them and made a rule- Allow: out, just like the general rule for outgoing is allow, and incoming is deny.
So I put the outgoing default setting to Deny, so both are deny, and I hoped my new rule for steam that says Allowut, would serve as a way of whitelisting specific programs, and overriding the general rule, like it is supposed to work for blacklisting, but it doesn't work!


What should I do? I can't be chasing every gme around, and the whitelisting approach is the easiest way. I read on another forum that a guy managed to only allow ports for browsers and his thunderbird, and that everything works nice. I have to type a password every time I open GUFW, so I kow it's sudo, and I should theoretically be able to do everything he did with the graphical interface.


What should I do? Am I doing something wrong? My theory was to make a profile filled with those 30 ports (or less if I can identify the useless ones) and steam, and have it on when I play games, so their proprietary software can't ring home to servers and share my data. I only allow steam to steal it and share it, but I won't be spied upon without express consent.


Thanks!

Intel 7265: "No device available", Ubuntu Mate 18.04

Hello Everyone,

I have Dell Inspiron 13-7348 with Intel 7265 wifi chip. Few days ago I've installed Ubuntu 18.04 and everything seemed fine until today. After this booting this morning I was able to launch browser and view home page, then network connection stopped working. There was no disconnection alert, wifi just froze and reconnecting failed due to "Device not ready" message. Tried rebooting, which helped at first, but then again after few minutes same thing happened. Next reboot was brought even worse effects, nm-applet says that "No device is available" from the start, and now rebooting doesn't change anything. Here's wireless-info.txt content:

Hi All.

We´ve got a new Dell PowerEdge T440 with a PERC H330 Raid card and 4x900Mb disks on it. I am trying to install Ubuntu Server Version 18.04 on it and I had some problems.
I coundn´t get the full space of 4x900=3.6T. On the screen I´ve got only 1.8T.
How we can see on the attetched picture the PERC H330 was recognized.
Any help will be great.
Thanx in advance.

DVB-T & DVB-S Tuners order changing every reboot under 18.4 Ubuntu Mythtv .29

Hi
Please bear with me on this as I am partially sighted.
I have spent hours following instructions on how to keep my tuner cards in the same order after each reboot. Both of my cards are TBS, one is a 6281SE the other 6982.
Read that I could add a dvb.conf to modprobe.d which I tried.
options tbsecp3 adapter_nr=0,1
options saa716x_tbs-dvb adapter_nr=2,3
Which did nothing? so either I have the driver names wrong? or something else?
Started to read about Udev, but there was so much confusing contrary information, that after nearly 6hrs of on and off reading when my eyes allowed, I just had to give up.

So where do I go from here? I am at a complete loss. Any help would really be appreciated.

Paul.

Easymp3gain

Hi, a few days ago I upgraded from Ubuntu 14.04 to 18.04. And one of the strange things that I found is that I did not have my dear easymp3gain program.

I have read several threads of the forum that deal with the issue but I have not managed to advance.

According to Synaptic I have installed the mp3gain 1.5.2-r2-6 bionic1.0 and easymp3gain-gtk2 0.5.0-2 packages

For this I added the repository http://ppa.launchpad.net/flexiondotorg/audio/ubuntu

And I downloaded the GUI easymp3gain-gtk2 .deb file for amd64

I have tried other things but I lost myself in the explanation.
I have installed similar programs but they do not have GUI and I do not find them comfortable to use.

When I type ...

tamaida@tamaida-pc:~$ mp3gain
==4009==ASan runtime does not come first in initial library list; you should either link runtime to your application or manually preload it with LD_PRELOAD.

tamaida@tamaida-pc:~$ easymp3gain
[WARNING] Out of OEM specific VK codes, changing to unassigned

Stack trace:
$00007FE3AF65F8B1
TApplication.HandleException Invalid floating point operation
Stack trace:
$00007FE3AF65F8B1
[FORMS.PP] ExceptionOccurred


The question is: Can it be fixed? Will I be able to use easymp3gain in Ubuntu 18.04? And if so, what do I have to do?

If there is no way I think I will return to 14.04.

Thank you and sorry for the inconvenience. Especially if the subject was already answered, but my knowledge of both English and Linux is very limited.

Thanks again

ubuntu 18.04 / gnome


Hi,

I'm fairly new and I tried to customize my displaymanger on ubuntu in order to remove the ubuntu logo you see when you log in after starting up.
I found ways to customize the background, how change the display manager but no way how to remove the ubuntu logo on the bottom.

I found some options available with
Code:
sudo gedit /usr/share/gdm/gdm.schemas
Code:
sudo gedit /etc/gdm3/greeter.dconf-defaults
Code:
sudo gedit /etc/gdm3/custom.conf

but none of these helped me to remove the ubuntu logo.

What could I try or does anyone know?

Thank you so much :)

Hello,

I'm new to Ubuntu and have no clue what I'm doing! I've spent hours blindly trying to install my Canon ImageClass D420 printer but nothing is printing. I've read posts and watched videos on youtube to no avail. Can someone show me step by step please?

I've installed Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and have the printer connected via a USB cable. I've also downloaded the drivers from Canon's website (linux-UFRII-drv-v360-usen.tar.gz).

Thank you!

[ubuntu] Bit of a odd question/request

I am using a little Asus pc as a media server, and have my video server set up and running on it just fine. The problem is, I don't have a monitor at home (I know, they're cheap, but I don't really need one). The problem is that I would like to be able to get onto this box remotely when I'm at home, and make changes (add shared drives, install a printer, etc)

I have tried Teamviewer, but unless there is a monitor plugged into the box, I just get a black screen on the remote terminal.

How can I do this so I can see the desktop of the Asus (running Bionic Beaver, if that helps) remotely without having to go out and purchase a monitor for this small box??

Thanks a bunch! :)

Getting into Grub on an off brand laptop/tablet with an Intel Atom z3735f

I'm working with a "Medion Akoya MD 99782 ." It's a cheap little tablet/netbook hybrid with an Intel Atom z3735f processor and 32 bit windows 10. Based on all my research, this processor is 64 bit, but the UEFI is 32 bit, leading to problems with the boot loader. After a few days of messing around with BIOS, UEFI and so on, I finally managed to get a isorespin.sh version (linuxium) of Lubuntu 18.04 installed onto a 15GB ext4 partition on the drive. I installed it via live USB. Secure boot is disabled, and after using the Ubuntu boot-repair tool Ubuntu shows up in the BIOS HDD boot order (it's in fact listed twice), but setting the priority above windows doesn't stop the laptop from booting into windows. If I press F10 when the computer first boots up I can manually select Ubuntu, but windows still boots. I've tried with and without secure boot, and I've used
Code:
chroot
to run
Code:
sudo update-grub
. That command worked as far as I could tell, though I don't have the exact output in front of me anymore. What can I try next to get grub to show up or enable Ubuntu to boot from the F10 menu?

Debian 9.6 with KDE.

If I click link from Twitter client Choqok, it make file like "14588_0_jCMIcrXTh7" or something like that to /var/tmp and tries to open it with eBook reader Calibre. File contains HTML. If I click that file, Firefox will open it.
I've checked file type options and it should open default with Firefox. Can't understand why it tries open it with Calibre E-book editor.

Calibre E-book editor gives error:

I am attempting to have two separate OpenVPN client configurations, one for each laptop I route back to my server. I have two tunnels, with a tun0 and tun1 interface as shown below.

I can see that both of my OpenVPN instances are working correctly, by way of

sudo systemctl status openvpn@server
and
sudo systemctl status openvpn@server2

...but my problem is I have no connectivity using my tun1 for openvpn@server2.

Is there a proper iptables configuration I should use for full connectivity into my server with my enp2s0 ethernet interface - while keeping both VPN tunnels tun0 and tun1 working properly with their respective client config files?
