I am running LM (linux mint) and am attempting to retrieve my wifes password from her keepass database. (.kbdx) She lost her password to gain access and she tried close to 50 different variations of our commonly used passwords but no joy.

I found a program called JohnTheRipper and I found a website where it has a user friendly tutorial on how to attempt to retrieve your database password. Everything seemed to be going smoothly until I reached the point in the tutorial where the author posted a script to run to combine several password lists into one list and eliminate overlap of the various lists.

Whever I start to run the script (combine_wordlists.sh) it starts out fine but then I receive an error:

"line 59: syntax error near unexpected token `then'."

I am inexperienced with scripting and the proper syntax and I'm not an expert on terminal but I know enough to get by. I am hoping that you can assist me in what to change in this script in order to get it to run properly. Here is the script:

#!/bin/bash

Thank you

I created a software called QuickBib, and I also made a snap package. Here is the yml file for snap. It is a python app using pyqt6.

The snap package gets a theme that looks like Windows 95. The APT package, of course, uses the correct system theme. Even the flatpak adheres to the system theme.

How to fix the theme in the snap package of my app?

I am using Kubuntu 24.04.

Basic timeline:

• I chose the "upgrade" option from the gui pop-up letting me know there was a newer version available.

• That ran for a bit, then gave me a message that it failed (I don't remember any details of the message, I mentally categorized it as "deal with that later")

• I noticed something was wrong with my internet, and the setting was missing from the quick menu

• I rebooted to see if that would resolve it

• It wouldn't boot into a gui, only into the terminal

• I started exploring in the terminal, and quickly found that I in fact don't have internet connectivity (eg, any install attempt of any package results in "failed to fetch")

• I booted from a 24.04 usb, which worked fine

• I was able to mount the old partition, explore files, etc; it's all still there

• I used the option, from the usb stick, to install 24.04 side-by-side

• That install went fine, and I now have two (relevant) partitions, one with 22.04 and one with 24.04. 24.04 works as expected but has none of my installed software, files, etc, and 22.04 boots into the terminal and has no internet connectivity

I would like to actually repair and upgrade the 22.04 installation and go back to using that partition as primary, but I'm not sure how to go about doing so. Fixing the internet on that partition seems like my first priority.

Output of ip link show when booted on the 22.04 partition:

1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
    link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00

    link/ether b0:dc:ef:02:43:10 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

I'm way out of practice on network config via cli and haven't had much luck googling to try to figure out how to get the internet up and running, but I imagine that if I can get online, so that I can manually upgrade/install packages using apt, I probably could manage to get the system repaired from there.

Edit to add additional outputs:

Unfortunately I can't get it working correctly. Whenever I try to connect to a server, the tunnel is closed immediately after it was established. In order to rule out any server problems, I tried to connect to a public server (https://www.vpnbook.com/). I set the verbose level of the client to 5 (maximum) and got the following log:

The reason, why 'Linux route add command failed' is that the tunnel is already deleted. I got this information from /var/sys/syslog. In order ot get as much information as possible I set the log level for the NetworkManager to TRACE:

tun1 is ready at 2025-12-04T11:56:37.865085+01 and right after that I get a warning from the ip-command which obviously got the task to delete an IP address.The next entries show how tun1 is deactivated.

I have a second notebook with the same Xubuntu and the same openVPN installation, which works perfectly. On this machine new addresses and routes are added after tun1 is established.

What else could I do in order to find out why OpenVPN has this strange behaviour?

I get the default ubuntu 24.04.3 login screen which shows when no graphical environment exists, and from there I can’t log in to my user account (just says “Login incorrect”), I don’t know how to log in to root account, I can’t access terminal. I’ve tried every shortcut to do so that I can find online but it just doesn’t work. Is there anything I can do or do at all to get pc working again?

I've got an issue with the latest Ubuntu Linux kernel update when system doesn't recognize devices like WiFi or Bluetooth. Following this guide I've loaded into an older kernel and tried to remove faulty one with sudo apt remove --purge linux-image-6.14.0-36-generic, but on removal got this message:

rmdir: failed to remove '/lib/modules/6.14.0-36-generic': Directory not empty

How can I fix this problem? I understand that you can just rm content of this directory, but is it even correct way to work with package manager?

Update So, I've decided to rm -r /lib/modules/6.14.0-36-generic/*. After that I run sudo apt remove --purge linux-image-6.14.0-36-generic. dpkg said that this package already uninstalled. My first thought was that everything is OK, so I run sudo update-grub and rebooted. After this uname -r shows working older kernel 6.14.0-33... but now I have the problem with nvidia-driver installation: sudo ubuntu-drivers install nvidia:570 fails with errors:

dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of linux-modules-nvidia-570-generic-hwe-24.04:
 linux-modules-nvidia-570-generic-hwe-24.04 depends on linux-modules-nvidia-570-6.14.0-36-generic (= 6.14.0-36.36~24.04.1+1); however:
  Package linux-modules-nvidia-570-6.14.0-36-generic is not configured yet.

As we can see, dpkg refers to a newer, uninstalled kernel 6.14.0-36. How can I fix that?

Update 2 After reverting the directory /lib/modules/6.14.0-36-generic from backup the problem with dependency persists.

PS Auto-updates are EVIL and should be disabled by default, need to do all of that in my working time.

I'm using Ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS on an HP and I'm in need of help.

I've had trouble with completely removing JDownloader2 from my laptop. I've deleted it using the Delete file that comes with one of the versions. However, I had another JD2 file on my laptop, that I had to remove manually. Now, I'm stuck with an invisible desk icon that won't leave, and JD2 as well as JD2 Updates & Rescue show up in my application list in my settings. They can't be opened nor deleted.

I've found five remaining files named jdownloader2.lock snap_jdownloader2_jdownloader (I can open this one in a terminal) jdownloader2.json jdownloader.svg (twice)

They show up as write-locked/not-accessible.

What can I do in order to remove all JDownloader2 traces, and get rid of the invisible desktop icons and the listing in my applications? Of course, I want to be able to download JD2 in the future, if that matters.

No, there are no .desktop files that I could delete.

Any help? Thanks! As I'm new to Ubuntu and Linux, a detailed explanation would be helpful.

Best regards, Pia

I am a Computer Science student and I have been using Ubuntu mainly for development work — programming, cybersecurity tools, and running virtual machines for course labs for about 6 months now.

Here is my current partition layout (lsblk):

nvme1n1     259:0    0 931.5G  0 disk 
├─nvme1n1p1 259:1    0     1G  0 part /boot/efi
├─nvme1n1p2 259:2    0 232.8G  0 part /
├─nvme1n1p3 259:3    0   3.8G  0 part [SWAP]
└─nvme1n1p4 259:4    0  20.5G  0 part /home

When I installed Ubuntu, I only allocated 20GB for /home, which I now realize is too small. Because of this, I couldn’t store my VirtualBox VMs in my home directory, so I had to put them in
/opt/VirtualBoxVMs. I know I still have space left in root to store more VMs, but ideally I want all my VM files to stay inside my home directory for better organization. I plan to use multiple VMs in the future, so I will need more space in /home.

I also want to set up my system properly for long-term use, rather than resizing partitions again in the future.

My goal is simply to make sure I have enough space for VMs, development files, and general usage, without risking data loss or breaking the system.

I would appreciate advice on:

• Whether increasing only /home is enough so I can store all my VMs there
• Whether resizing both / and /home is a better idea for my use case
• Based on your experience, what partitioning strategy is best for long-term use of Ubuntu for someone studying Computer Science and Cybersecurity, who frequently uses virtual machines and development tools?

Thanks for your help!

There is espanso tool, which has some issue on wayland, which needs to run espanso restart every time when user logs into fresh session or log into locked session.

Espanso itself starts via systemd user service, but it does not seem to handle waking up.

Can someone advice 'any' way how to do call command espanso restart after waking up? I tried systemd services and it does not work. I obviously don't want to do script which restarts it every minute, or during starting terminal, don't do any busy-waiting loops.

What is the root cause of this noise on my laptop display? It appears as soon as the system boots and changes the resolution of the screen. I can see the correct resolution when booted, graphics and everything works fine, and the "radeon" driver is loaded correctly, but I have this layer of visual artifacts and noise.

What is the root cause of this issue? Is it a kernel driver? user space driver? Xorg?

In X11, I can run xkill, and select an window that I want to close.

I want something similar in Wayland. The other command line options like pkill or kill involve getting the exact app name or the PID of the process.

I just want to click on a Window and close it instead. How to achieve this in Wayland?

This explains how to do this in KDE Plasma running Wayland. What about regular Ubuntu with GNOME?

I want to experience Ubuntu outside of a virtual machine, and I want to install Ubuntu on my laptop. There are two problems though. First, I don't have a spare USB or something like that. Second, I have a big fear of BIOS-related menus meaning I don't want to access Novo menu, BIOS setup or boot menu. My Lenovo laptop didn't came with Intel RST or Bitlocker meaning I'm prepared for install. Any comment saying "go buy a USB/enter boot menu" will be ignored as they bring no beneficial value to my problem.

I have the installation partition prepared on my secondary 1Tb drive and Ubuntu version is 24.04.

I bought a USB and I'm ready to boot it from Windows Recovery.

If I boot Ubuntu my laptop doesn't detect my external monitor, but if I boot Windows it's OK.

The laptop is a Dell XPS 13 9350 / Intel Lunar Lake / Xubuntu 25.10 / Intel Arc Graphics 130V / 140V (rev 04) / intel-ipu7 / Linux 6.17.0-7-generic

The display key on the keyboard doesn't do anything (but the display brightness keys have never worked with Ubuntu either, for what it's worth). xrandr --auto doesn't do anything.

Any ideas what to try next?

I am getting this warning when Booting: "EFI stub: WARNING: Failed to measure data for event 1: 0x800000000000000b"

I have seen other fixes for similar problems (where the error code is different but with the EFI Stub: Warning: Failed to measure data...). Most of these involve turning off Secure Boot. This is not really a solution but only 'papers over the cracks'.

The issue seems to be an unsigned driver, or at least an unenrolled driver signature. Secure boot only allows loading of trusted drivers (that have an enrolled signature in the UEFI) and returns this error if it does not have an enrolled signature for a driver.

My question is: How do I find what driver is unenrolled so I can enroll it?

I am running kubuntu 24.04 (I am also running Windows on the same machine but on a different disk, so I need Secure Boot.)

My laptop as some issue with the fan. It does not work properly on Ubuntu. On Windows I can control fan speed manually using HP Gaming Hub and set it to max, but it seems impossible on Ubuntu.

I have been searching for more than 2 months now. My laptop heats up to 60–70°C but the fan still runs slow. I am already using a cooling pad but it does not help much.

I have already tried:

• lm-sensors and fancontrol
• pwmconfig (does not detect any controllable fan)
• Checked other solutions and forum posts

It looks similar to the known fan control issue on some HP laptops (like EliteBook).

Can anybody help?

• Is there any way to control or increase fan speed on HP Victus under Ubuntu 24.04?

The problem is I have encountered that I cant write into my windows 11 drives from Ubuntu 22.04 drives. I have checked to disable fast startup in windows 11 but there was no success. Any other method that would work?

I simply double click on the drives on the menu bar in the left panel. Then checking if i can create folder and it has been grayed out. Moreover pasting something copied from Ubuntu home folder is sending a no permission message. I had access, but i do not know what happened suddenly I lost write access to my windows drives. Read access is available.

Fenvi AX300 based on AICSemi AIC8800DC

Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS / 6.11.0-21

Adapter presents itself first as a mass storage:

ID a69c:5721 aicsemi Aic MSC

After ejecting:

ID a69c:88dc AICSemi AIC8800DC

Plus, i've confirmed that it works OK under windows.

I've tried drivers:

1. Tenda AX300 - newest, generic, from official site - it supposed to be compatible with kernels 3.10-6.8. Tried my luck, but since i'm on 6.11, no surprise, it failed during compilation.

• driver used
• failed attempt log

2. Tenda AX300 - newest, Ubuntu specific, official site - this one got farthest. It successfully switches from mass storage, but device is not visible anywhere.

• driver used

3. Precompiled .deb from Radxa, that supposed to be compatible with debian like distros, and my current kernel - first installed firmware, then dkms/usb - 'dkms info' shows installed driver, but dongle still behaves as mass storage.

4. Multiple sketchy drivers from GitHub, they either fail to compile or do nothing.

Can an one share a success story with this device/chipset, or a method to compile and install those drivers from sources?

I am new to Linux and am trying to start using Linux on my 2017 iMac Pro that has an Intel Xeon W chip. I was able to successfully install Ubuntu 22.04.4 and dual-boot, however, it does not look like my sound card is being recognized. For output I'm only seeing Dummy Output, and no input options. I have tried plugging in my headphones, but those aren't recognized either. I have tried a bunch of recommendations out there while perusing Google but have had no luck. If it helps, I have run this command and here is the output:

sudo lspci -vv | grep -i audio

I would like to lock my Ubuntu after I walk away from it. Ideally, it should be a small Bluetooth tag / card that I carry in my pocket with a proximity sensor.

Is there some software and hardware that I can use for Linux for this purpose?

Basically, I'm looking for something like GateKeeper (but I don't know if this works for Linux) https://technabob.com/blog/2014/03/19/gatekeeper-locks-pc-automatically/

The proximity feature will automatically lock and unlock your PC or Mac when you walk away from it. That will keep your machine from sitting unprotected.

I have the following problem with my WIFI. My laptop works fine on Windows 10, but when I boot on Ubuntu I can’t use my WIFI adapter properly. It is clearly a problem with the driver or any possible setup of the driver. I would really appreciate your help giving me any insight on how to fix this issue. Thank you.

Also, if someone could share (a link with) all possible setups for my WIFI driver so that I could make some tests, I would appreciate it. I hope to hear from the community soon, and thanks again.

THE PROBLEM

When I am on Ubuntu 20.04, I have the following situations:

1. If I connect using USB tethering via cable, the internet is ok. And I can use Bluetooth normally with or without a speaker connected.

2. If I connect with WIFI and Bluetooth OFF, the internet is ok.

3. If I connect with WIFI and Bluetooth ON, the internet is okay.

4. If I connect with WIFI and Bluetooth ON, AND speaker connected (model Betron KB-S08 ON,) then I have a problem: the internet becomes very slow (unusable,) and it disconnects a lot. I can switch from any of those situations above as many times as I want and the same scenario is very responsive -always the same outcome.

However, when I am on Windows 10:

• My WIFI works fine with or without a speaker connected via Bluetooth.

Detail: I installed Ubuntu with a DUAL boot on my machine.

I need to fill up a pdf with XFA forms. Okular says that or does not support XFA forms.

Xreader displays the following message and asks to install Adobe Reader.

If this message is not eventually replaced by the proper contents of the document, your PDF
viewer may not be able to display this type of document.

Is there pdf reader (not a pdf editor which actually draws on the document) in Ubuntu that supports XFA forms?

This is not a duplicate of Is there software that can fill PDF forms? because answers in that question do not address XFA forms (as mentioned in some comments).

I got this error upon starting Squid Proxy Server using the command sudo squid -z:

fatal: ipc::mem::segment::create failed to shm_open(/squid-cf__metadata.shm): 13 permission denied

How shall I fix it? I'm using version 3.5.26 of Squid, I tried implementing the fix below I found in the web:

Just add the following line to your /etc/fstab file: shm /dev/shm tmpfs nodev,nosuid,noexec 0 0
After that use (as root): # mount shm

Unfortunately, it doesn't work, another possible fix on the web is error reading squid.pid:

squid: ERROR: Could not read pid file /var/run/squid.pid: (13) Permission denied

As I look in my directory, I could not find squid.pid. How will I get my Squid working?

So here´s what happened:

1 - I have an Imac and was trying to downgrade it from High Sierra to El Capitan by trying to force its installation manually. That corrupted the OS system files and I could not start the Imac.

2 - Then I created a bootable Ubuntu 18.04 LTS into a pendrive and am booting the Imac that way. While Ubuntu does list the drive, it cannot mount it. Therefore, I cannot backup the files to try and reinstall the mac OS again.

So, How do I get to mount the Apple SSD in order to backup my files ?

It´s an 1.0 TB Disk Apple SSD GPT partition, and the imac does not have access to internet, so anything I might need to install in order to fix this i have to get from another computer and use a flashdrive to transfer to the mac.

Hopefully i made myself clear enough, not a code expert so looking forward to the simplest solution to this.

EDIT: Here are some things I've tried:

sudo fdisk -l
Disk /dev/sda: 931.9 GiB, 1000555581440 bytes, 1954210120 sectors

I was running Kali Linux for a while, but since that started to crash on me after every update, a student told me to switch to the more stable Ubuntu distro.

In the past I was very pleased with the ease of installation of this distro, but the installation process on my laptop is a joke.

I am not getting it to work as it should. I must launch the installer with the nomodeset kernel argument or I won't get the installer displayed. When ran without the kernel argument, it starts waiting for 'a start job is running for detect the available gpus and deal with any system changes' which goes on for an unlimited amount of time. After a minute or three it stops, does something and quits working.

When the installation is complete, the system reboots, with the nomodeset argument still in place on the new grub loader. The resolution is very bad (as expected) and when I try to install the NVIDIA graphics driver, it doesn't work. When I remove the nomodeset kernel argument from the grub entry, the system doesn't go to the desktop. It shows my desktop wallpaper and mouse that I can move.

After removing the NVIDIA graphic drivers and still boot without the nomodeset kernel argument, I am greeted with a resolution that fits the screen.

Everything looks good, but when I try to do any power related physical things (shutting down, rebooting, force rebooting) it doesn't do that. It freezes the screen. I can reboot the pc with the ALT + SYSRQ and REIB combination, but that doesn't solve the issue.

The strange thing is, that my Windows installation doesn't shutdown/reboot/sleep as well.

Windows was working! I've also defaulted my bios, didn't solve any problems.

When reinstalling Ubuntu without installing any NVIDIA graphic drivers and removing the nomodeset (and quiet splash) kernel argument, Ubuntu launches and I am able to login. The screen resolution is right, but when trying to shutdown or reboot, the system still freezes on the desktop. CTRL + ALT + F1~6 or CTRL + ALT + DEL is doing nothing. ALT + SYSRQ and REIB does work.

I removed the nomodeset and $vt_handoff (and quiet splash) kernel argument and the system boots up. Shutting down or rebooting freezes the computer on the desktop. Same as above goes for the 'system keyboard command'. Rebooting Ubuntu before logging in also freezes.

When booting into Windows with the new untouched version of the grub bootloader, after a full shutdown, boots up and shutsdown. When I reboot ubuntu and pick Windows at the grub menu, Windows doesn't start.

TL;DR

nomodeset removed:

• Ubuntu boots, logs in and does all it's things, but freezes on shutdown or reboot. When rebooting Ubuntu with the SYSRQ key combo's, Windows can't boot after ubuntu has booted and the system hasn't been fully off.

With nomodeset:

• Ubuntu boots, logs in and does all it things (in poor resolution), even shutsdown and reboots. Windows can boot after ubuntu has booted and the system hasn't been fully off.

Here are the specs of my Laptop:

• 1920x1080p
• NVIDIA GTX 950M
• i7 6700HQ
• 256 SSD A previously working
• Kali installation that didn't had all the issues Ubuntu now has.

I have reinstalled Ubuntu a total of 10 times now.

I've already solved my initial wifi problem here: Wifi drops after ~ 5 minutes with RTL8821AE | Ask Ubuntu but I've tried to optimize it (because anytime there was a kernel update I have to execute all the commands of the solution again) and I've messed up something.

To solve the kernel update problem I tried

sudo dkms add ./rtlwifi_new-master

just before an update. I ran the command in the Desktop folder but I got this output:

Error! Could not find module source directory.
Directory: /usr/src/.-rtlwifi_new-master does not exist.

So I thought that I should have run the given command while in /usr/src/ folder, so I did so, but after doing that my wifi problem got worse and now every time I reboot the PC I need to execute the whole solution again, whereas before this process was necessary only after a kernel update.

Also, on the main screen I see something like

there is an error! rtlwifi_new-master is an external package. Please remove it

In summary:

1. I got a notification of a system update

2. I executed sudo dkms add ./rtlwifi_new-master in src folder

3. I didn't reboot

4. I executed the update

5. I rebooted

6. Worse problem than before

I thought of running

rm -R  rtlwifi-new-0.10

in the /src folder but I don't have the permission and I've already messed up with that one time. You can see it here:

Ubuntu 16.04 lts lost administrator rights bash: /etc/profile: Permission denied | Ask Ubuntu

Suggestions??

We are using Ubuntu 14.04 desktop. We have added Firefox to the startup application. the browser does open up but not into full screen mode. There are 2 arrows next to the Firefox browser and if you right click on this icon you can see it has opened up. How do I fix this?

I've installed Ubuntu 64bit on Virtualbox 4.2.16. Guest Additions were installed in Ubuntu as well.

However the display resolution of Ubuntu does not seem to change as the Virtualbox window is resized or if we were to go into Full Screen mode. Any ideas?

I recently upgraded to Ubuntu 12.04 and since I hate unity I installed the Xubuntu package and am using XFCE instead.

Since I have a Radeon HD5770 I also installed the fglrx drivers.

This all went fine (aside from the fact that the post-release update fglrx drivers have an error on installation and Ubuntu thinks they're not installed when they actually are.

I configured my display settings (dual monitors, a 17" CRT on VGA and a 17" LCD on DVI) in the amdcccle program and everything was perfect.

THEN, 2 days ago, I accidentally clicked on the "Display" settings in XFCE "settings" manager. After that, everything got screwed.

Now, I normally run the CRT at 1152x854 and the LCD at 1280x1024 with the CRT as my primary monitor (with panel) and the LCD without panels etc just to display other windows when I want to drag them over there.

The problem is now that if I set my CRT to 1152x864, it stays at 1280x1024 virtually and half the stuff falls off the screen.

It also puts the LCD at 1280x1024 BUT then overlays the CRT's display ontop with different wallpaper in an L shape down the right-hand and bottom edges.

In short, nothing makes sense and everything is FUBAR.

I tried uninstalling fglrx through synaptic, and renaming xorg.conf and also the xfce XML file that has monitor settings but it still won't make sense.

Unity on the other hand can currently set everything normally so the problem appears to be only with XFCE.

In any case, I can't even get the fglrx drivers back, when I re-installed them, I can't run amdccle anymore as it says the driver isn't installed!!

Can someone help me reset my XFCE settings so the monitors aren't screwed with some incorrect virtual desktop size and also so I can get fglrx drivers back and working? I really don't want to have to format and reinstall and go through all the hassle but it looks like I may have to :(
