How to build a single absent in-tree kernel module with proper kernelrelease? https://askubuntu.com/questions/1568737/how-to-build-a-single-absent-in-tree-kernel-module-with-proper-kernelrelease

I am trying to add to my machine a 'missing' kernel module, which is in-tree, but not configured in the Ubuntu kernel builds, as discussed in this question.

I am mostly following the procedure outlined in this question and answer.

Specifically, I obtain the kernel source from the Ubuntu repository, and check out the tag relevant to my running kernel (7.0.0-28-generic)

$ git clone https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/noble
$ cd noble
$ git checkout Ubuntu-hwe-7.0-7.0.0-28.28_24.04.1

I then configure the build system

$ make oldconfig #Uses config from /boot/config-7.0.0-28-generic
$ sed -i 's/# CONFIG_MODULE is not set/CONFIG_MODULE=m/' .config #Enable the module I want to build
$ make scripts
$ make prepare
$ make modules_prepare #Select relevant driver modules with 'm' when prompted
$ cp /usr/src/linux-headers-$(uname -r)/Module.symvers . #Copy the current kernel's Module.symvers, to avoid rebuilding the entire kernel for generation

and build the driver modules

$ make M=drivers/<module>

Now at this point, I could, in principle, add the modules using insmod. However, because I'm building several modules with a dependency tree, I'd like to install them to /lib/modules/7.0.0-28-generic/updates for use with modprobe. However, running make M=drivers/<module> modules_install installs my newly-built modules in /lib/modules/7.0.12+/updates instead.

This makes some degree of sense, as make kernelrelease returns 7.0.12+ rather than the expected 7.0.0-28-generic. Since this kernelrelease number is embedded into the module as well, a manual copying to the normal install location will still pose issues for the use of modprobe, as discussed here.

The main question is: what needs to change in my workflow to produce the expected kernelrelease value, and allow installation and modprobe use. The proposed solution on unix.se above doesn't seem to apply in this case, unless I am misunderstanding.

Happy to share the exact module(s) I am trying to build if that is relevant. As far as I can tell, this is not related to the issue I'm having, and I figure a generic solution will be more applicable to others.

How to install a Canon pixma driver? https://askubuntu.com/questions/1568733/how-to-install-a-canon-pixma-driver

I use Ubuntu 26.04 and i would like to install the driver of Canon pixma ts 6350. I downloaded the cnijfilter2-5.90-1-deb, opened a terminal and tried to run install.sh. But the terminal returned this:

dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of cnijfilter2:
cnijfilter2 depends on libxml2 (>= 2.7.4); however:
Package libxml2 is not installed.

So I tried to install libxml2 with apt, but then i got this message:

    Package libxml2 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
    This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
    is only available from another source
    
    Error: Package 'libxml2' has no installation candidate

I don't know and don't understand what is this libxml2, because I saw apt show libxml2 and is said it's a virtual package and can't be installed.

So can anybody help me how to install this driver? I would be very thankful.

Snap store open but cant open the window https://askubuntu.com/questions/1568732/snap-store-open-but-cant-open-the-window

I try to open the store with the icon and even via the console but nothing makes it visible. Even reinstalled it but to no avail. I am very new to linux so sorry if i ask dumb questions.

Primary monitor doesn't wake up after dimming on Kubuntu 26.04 https://askubuntu.com/questions/1568731/primary-monitor-doesnt-wake-up-after-dimming-on-kubuntu-26-04

Dual monitor setup on Kubuntu 26.04.

Primary monitor is Asus Tuf Gaming vg27aq1a -- this is the monitor with the issue. It is connected to the board by HDMI.

The secondary monitor is Samsung SyncMaster S24B300. It is connected by DVI cable>DisplayPort adapter>board. This monitor is not problematic.

When I lock the screen during a session, and the monitors then dim out, sometimes only the secondary monitor wakes up from user activity. Even after unlocking the session, the primary monitor remains black, until I toggle the power switch on it. The issue doesn't occur every time.

It used to crash my virtual machine when that happened, until I started running it with the parameter VBOX_DESKTOPWATCHDOGPOLICY_SYNTHTEST=Disabled which is supposed to protect a VirtualBox guest from the screen turning on and off.

WIthout this parameter, I see this error, which I am presenting just to help point to the underlying issue that causes it:

                PID: 3141 (VirtualBoxVM)

No issue when running Windows, so am assuming the issue is not due to faulty hardware.

Upgraded to 26.04 LTS - A few issues https://askubuntu.com/questions/1568730/upgraded-to-26-04-lts-a-few-issues

I just upgraded from Kubuntu 24.04 to 26.04 LTS. On the surface most things seem to look OK and work. I've lost my Latte-Dock, but I believe that dock is no longer supported and isn't in the repos anymore, so more of a nuisance than anything.

More seriously none of my Appimages now launch, and they worked fine on 24.04. I'm not sure what is the best thing to do, as none of the few appimages that I use are available as packages in the repos. For example running my Openshot video editor appimage produces this error:-

$ .local/share/applications/OpenShot-v3.5.0-x86_64.AppImage

dlopen(): error loading libfuse.so.2
    
    AppImages require FUSE to run. 
    You might still be able to extract the contents of this AppImage 
    if you run it with the --appimage-extract option. 
    See https://github.com/AppImage/AppImageKit/wiki/FUSE 
    for more information

As you can see the issue relates to the libfuse package. According to dpkg I have fuse3 and libfuse3-4 installed. The error seems to be hinting that I need libfuse2, but can't be sure. So what's the best approach here?

Only one fan working on MSI laptop with Kubuntu, fancontrol/pwmconfig not helping https://askubuntu.com/questions/1568728/only-one-fan-working-on-msi-laptop-with-kubuntu-fancontrol-pwmconfig-not-helpin

I have a fresh install of Kubuntu 26.04 on my MSI Katana 15 HX B14WFK laptop, installed with dual booting with Windows 11. While on Windows my fans work fine, on Linux my laptop overheats frequently, the following output of sudo sensors reveals why:

It appears only fan1 is working for some reason. I tried installing fancontrol but it requires pmwconfig to work correctly, which gives me the following output:

/usr/sbin/pwmconfig: There are no pwm-capable sensor modules installed

I tried troubleshooting this problem and online I found that adding the line acpi_enforce_resources=lax to /etc/default/grub might solve the problem but it did not help.

I also attach the output of sensors-detect:

Some Super I/O chips contain embedded sensors. We have to write to
standard I/O ports to probe them. This is usually safe.
Do you want to scan for Super I/O sensors? (YES/no): YES
/dev/port: Operation not permitted

Some hardware monitoring chips are accessible through the ISA I/O ports.
We have to write to arbitrary I/O ports to probe them. This is usually
safe though. Yes, you do have ISA I/O ports even if you do not have any
ISA slots! Do you want to scan the ISA I/O ports? (YES/no): yes
/dev/port: Operation not permitted

Lastly, we can probe the I2C/SMBus adapters for connected hardware
monitoring devices. This is the most risky part, and while it works
reasonably well on most systems, it has been reported to cause trouble
on some systems.
Do you want to probe the I2C/SMBus adapters now? (YES/no):

Now follows a summary of the probes I have just done.
Just press ENTER to continue: 

Driver `coretemp':
  * Chip `Intel digital thermal sensor' (confidence: 9)

To load everything that is needed, add this to /etc/modules:
#----cut here----
# Chip drivers
coretemp
#----cut here----
If you have some drivers built into your kernel, the list above will
contain too many modules. Skip the appropriate ones!

Do you want to add these lines automatically to /etc/modules? (yes/NO)yes
Successful!

Monitoring programs won't work until the needed modules are
loaded. You may want to run '/etc/init.d/kmod start'
to load them.

Unloading cpuid... OK

This changes nothing. Online I have seen that solutions are motherboard-specific, but no online solution I could find for MSI laptops helped.

Is anybody able to help? Thank you in advance!

Cannot fix broken dependencies on Ubuntu 22.04 [duplicate] https://askubuntu.com/questions/1568724/cannot-fix-broken-dependencies-on-ubuntu-22-04

I'll try to describe the issue to the best of my ability, but I am not very well versed in this. I had Ubuntu 18.04 on my laptop (dual boot with Windows, in case it is relevant), and I suddenly got an issue with the Nvidia graphics drivers. After trying several things, eventually I managed to fix this by updating to Ubuntu 20.04 (which I couldn't before due to a separate issue, but somehow one of the things I did trying to fix the graphics drivers issue made this possible). The upgrade to 20.04 seemingly went well, so then I tried to update to 22.04, since 20.04 is already outdated as well. During this upgrade, again I had issues with the Nvidia graphics drivers, more specifically they could not be installed, as I understand, because of a version conflict with cpp/gcc. I found this question Resolve/undo cpp/gcc version conflict in dpkg, which to me seemed like a similar issue, and tried one of the solutions there, from @Tux The Linux Fan.

What has led me to the situation I am at now is that I ran the following line of code without properly understanding what it was going to do (I only saw the warning afterwards - yes, I realise this was very stupid of me):

sudo dpkg --remove --force-depends cpp gcc gcc-14-base cpp-x86-64-linux-gnu gcc-x86-64-linux-gnu gcc-14-x86-64-linux-gnu libgcc-s1 libgomp1 libstdc++6 libatomic1

I tried to follow the next steps in that same answer, but

sudo apt install --reinstall cpp gcc libgcc-s1 libgomp1 libstdc++6 libatomic1

did not work for me (I should mention that apt was not working for me until I "manually" installed libstdc++6). I get the following message:

Reading package lists... Done

You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.

E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.
E: Unable to correct dependencies

I also tried to run the dkpg fix broken dependencies option on recovery mode, but that hasn't worked either. As I understand, the issue stems from an incompatibility between the version of libstdc++6 and libstdc++6:i386, which as I understand still has the version from 18.04, for some reason?

I have read several similar questions here, but either they have answers which I have already tried or answers that don't apply to my specific situation. I don't know what else to try, so if anyone has any insight on what is going on here and how I can fix this, I would greatly appreciate it.

EDIT BELOW

It has been pointed out that this question is similar to E:Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages and Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

However, the main answers there (I did not try them all) did not help my case, as they mostly suggested running sudo apt update/upgrade/autoremove or something similar to fix things. Instead, what worked for me, as suggested in the comments, was to manually download and install with dpkg the packages that were causing the broken dependencies, which for me were gcc-12-base, libgcc-s1, libgomp1 and libatomic1, some of which I had to install both for amd64 and i386. After manually downloading these packages (from https://packages.ubuntu.com/jammy/libgcc-s1 and https://ubuntu.pkgs.org/), I could run sudo apt --fix-broken install and sudo apt upgrade successfully (as far as I can tell, at least).

The outcome of sudo apt update for me, now, is:

which I'm told still means I have something to fix due to the line with Ign, but that might be a different issue. It might also be worth mentioning that the output of sudo apt install build-essential is now:

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable

The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:

E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

which makes me think my problem might not be entirely gone. This is just guesswork from my part (and let me reiterate I am not well versed in this at all), but the issue with this might be because it is trying to "build essentials" with package versions from Ubuntu 18.04 (which is what I had originally), while now these packages are in the versions for Ubuntu 22.04 (what I have now). I'm including it just for completion, I understand this might be very specific for my case and may not apply to anyone else.

Thank you to all who answered and provided insight on this matter, and apologies if I have failed to comply with the correct structure of this Q&A site.

Getting Thunderbird to use my existing profile, after copying my home directory to a fresh install of Kubuntu 26.04 https://askubuntu.com/questions/1568711/getting-thunderbird-to-use-my-existing-profile-after-copying-my-home-directory

So, I was previously on Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS, running Thunderbird 115.18.0 "Supernova".

My ~/.thunderbird directory looked like this:

drwx------  5 username groupnam 4.0K Jan 12  2025 'Crash Reports'
drwx------  2 username groupnam 4.0K Nov  4  2021 'Pending Pings'
-rw-rw-r--  1 username groupnam   62 Nov  4  2021  installs.ini
drwx------ 13 username groupnam 4.0K Jul 29 14:41  l2035iac.default-release
-rw-rw-r--  1 username groupnam  259 Nov  4  2021  profiles.ini
drwx------  2 username groupnam 4.0K Nov  4  2021  vpjhzimu.default

So, clearly l2035iac.default-release is the profile that it's been using, and vpjhzimu.default was created when I originally installed Ubunut 20.04, but hasn't been used since. (I don't know why.)

I got a new laptop and did a fresh install of Kubuntu 26.04. It has Thunderbird 153.0 "Meadow".

I copied my old home directory from the old computer to the new computer. I was expecting it to pick up all my old Thunderbird settings, because the ~/.thunderbird is there, but it acts like it's starting from scratch, and doesn't know anything about my existing accounts.

Based on the modification timestamps after running Thunderbird on the new computer, it looks like it was using the vpjhzimu.default profile (which hadn't been used in 5 years) rather than the l2035iac.default-release profile (which seems to be what I've been using for the past five years).

How can I get it to use the l2035iac.default-release profile on the new computer? I don't really know anything about Thunderbird profiles; it's not a feature that I use. (So I don't know why there's more than one profile in the first place.)

The contents of the profiles.ini file is:

[Profile1]
Name=default
IsRelative=1
Path=vpjhzimu.default
Default=1

[InstallFDC34C9F024745EB]
Default=l2035iac.default-release
Locked=1

[Profile0]
Name=default-release
IsRelative=1
Path=l2035iac.default-release

[General]
StartWithLastProfile=1
Version=2

Should I just move the Default=1 line from [Profile1] to [Profile0]?

the result is partially correct. Some correct answers are missing.

Thanks in advance for any insight you can provide.

BTW, the lazy-match capture group returns too much in several circumstances. GNU sed 4.9.

Cockpit don't work Username or Password wrong https://askubuntu.com/questions/1568703/cockpit-dont-work-username-or-password-wrong

I'm using Ubuntu 24.04 LTS:

The Cockpit application has stopped working over the past few days. I keep getting an error message stating that the username or password is incorrect.

I can rule out the possibility that either is incorrect, as I am currently logged in with that user. Other admin users are unable to log in as well.

The error occurs in Chrome, Edge and Mozilla.

I have already uninstalled Cockpit and deleted all associated directories, yet the error persists even after a reinstallation.

The cockpit, cockpit.socket, and cockpit.service processes are running without error messages.

An error message is generated during a login attempt:

I need help with support for TP-Link UB600 Bluetooth Dongle on Kubuntu 26.04 please https://askubuntu.com/questions/1568248/i-need-help-with-support-for-tp-link-ub600-bluetooth-dongle-on-kubuntu-26-04-ple

I've been trying to get my UB600 Bluetooth dongle to work, however it seems that it's not compatible out of the box. In fact, there's only 1 place with a solution how to get it to work however it seems the explanation on how to do it goes over my head. I've tried using what they gave me in konsole but some things just error and I can't seem to get around that. The fix I've been attempting is this. The issue I'm having is, it detects the Bluetooth dongle, but the computer is then unable to detect any Bluetooth devices at all. The lsusb is exactly as shown on that link as is the journalctl.

Is there any chance somebody could explain to me like I'm a 5 year old how to apply that patch, or better yet, create a solution for me? I am running Kubuntu 26.04 on kernel 7.0.0-27-27.

Drawing tablet not working properly - pointer shows https://askubuntu.com/questions/1567564/drawing-tablet-not-working-properly-pointer-shows

I just installed Ubuntu 26.04. I am new to all this. I have tried two different tablets, and both had the same issue. When I tried it shows the pointer moving, but I can't click on icons or draw. This is for both Krita and Open Toonz. I hadedownloaded the driver for my Huion Kamvas pro 16. (I also tried my Wacom Intuos pro too). I searched and people blamed a new xwayland update, a few people said it broke it, they rolled back the update. I only have the newest edition. Is there something I can do? Or just wait until they do a new update to resolve the issue?

When I test the tablet and pen in the test area on Ubuntu desktop tablet area properties, it works, the pressure sensitive also works.

Install ROCm 7.2 instead of 7.1 on Ubuntu 26.04 LTS – or update coming? https://askubuntu.com/questions/1566539/install-rocm-7-2-instead-of-7-1-on-ubuntu-26-04-lts-or-update-coming

I've been eagerly waiting for Ubuntu 26.04 LTS because I knew ROCm would be installed automatically with it. Now I'm disappointed to see it's only ROCm 7.1.0 / 7.1.1 which does not work well with newer AMD Strix Halo designs like AMD RYZEN AI MAX+ 395 with Radeon 8060S (gfx1151).

To get the full potential of this GPU and NPU, I have to use ROCm 7.2 and later. First question is:

  • Should I install ROCm 7.2 myself despite there is not even an installation guide for Ubuntu 26.04 in the official documentation yet, or
  • eagerly wait for a ROCm update to come to Ubuntu 26.04 via system updates?

I would happily wait 1 or 2 months, but if this update is not to be expected in the near future then I most likely would have to do it myself. How to start?

How prevent my Lubuntu laptop from automatically connecting to a Wi-Fi network https://askubuntu.com/questions/1565850/how-prevent-my-lubuntu-laptop-from-automatically-connecting-to-a-wi-fi-network

I connect to the internet at public sites, usually my local library, which involves a network login page.

My problem is that before that can happen, the network xfinity often hijacks the login process by connecting itself to my laptop.

How can I permanently ban xfinity network from connecting to me. I use Network Manager on Lubuntu 24.04

Explaining apt list "installed" meaning https://askubuntu.com/questions/1553063/explaining-apt-list-installed-meaning

Whats the difference between packages listed in the output from sudo apt list and sudo apt list --installed? Obviously getting many more packages without the --installed flag. What does it mean for a package to be on a system (found without --installed) but not installed (not found in output with --installed)? Are these 'not installed' packages needed for the system or any dependencies?

Remmina rdp from linux to windows: win key and others not working inside session https://askubuntu.com/questions/1481482/remmina-rdp-from-linux-to-windows-win-key-and-others-not-working-inside-session

I'm connected with remmina from ubuntu to windows 10 in full screen mode. If I press WIN it does not display the windows start menu, but the ubuntu activities instead. It's like, if those keys were not mapped at all in remmina, they keep working as if I was only using linux.

Can I get a fully immersive session, where no matter what key I press, it's handled by windows and not linux?

Activate/recognize Thunderbolt devices on Ubuntu 22.04 https://askubuntu.com/questions/1405208/activate-recognize-thunderbolt-devices-on-ubuntu-22-04

I am having issues with Ubuntu 22.04 recognizing the thunderbolt devices I plug on the computer, which is on an MSI Z590 motherboard. The boltctl list command comes out as empty, no output. The lspci -v command hangs forever, not completing at all.

EDIT:

We've plugged Akitio Duo eGPU encasings with 2x4GB Nvidia GPUs into it. These are fine with other similar computers with Ubuntu 21.04, but it's the first time we try on this MSI Z590 with Ubuntu 22.04.

Any ideas?

How To Connect Galaxy Buds to Ubuntu https://askubuntu.com/questions/1165883/how-to-connect-galaxy-buds-to-ubuntu

I recently purchased the new Galaxy Buds but was quite sad when my buds were not able to connect to my laptop which is running Ubuntu 18.04. However, my other Bluetooth device the JBL Tune 110BT was able to connect previously. I hope one of you would be able to assist me, so I can use my buds on the laptop as well.

How to run Cheese twice, simultaneously https://askubuntu.com/questions/982148/how-to-run-cheese-twice-simultaneously

I need to show video from two webcams side by side, simultaneously. Roughly like below: Webcam view

except I only need two of them. Cheese allows me to choose which webcam I want to display, but when it's running, rerunning Cheese just refocuses the same window, instead of starting a new one. If only I could have two independent windows with Cheese at once, I would pick a different webcam on each and put them side by side.

My question is: can I somehow fool Cheese into thinking it's not already running and starting a new window? Otherwise, can you suggest a similar program which would achieve the same goal?

Why does my custom launcher open under a separate icon? https://askubuntu.com/questions/648434/why-does-my-custom-launcher-open-under-a-separate-icon

I've created a custom launcher file:

[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Name=P4V
Comment=Perforce Visual Client
Icon=/usr/lib/p4v/P4VResources/icons/P4-V_128x128.png
Exec=/usr/bin/p4v
Terminal=false
Categories=Development;

And dragged this file to my launcher. However, when I click the icon, it opens the application under a 2nd, different icon (I click the top one, it opens the application under the bottom one):

launcher icons

The bottom icon isn't present until after I launch the application using the top P4v icon that I manually added.

How do I install drivers and configure my screen to work? (15.04, nvidia 760 gtx, QNIX QX2710) https://askubuntu.com/questions/623274/how-do-i-install-drivers-and-configure-my-screen-to-work-15-04-nvidia-760-gtx

Every time I try to install the Nvidia drivers for my graphics card, the GTX 760, I end up with a black screen on boot which stops me from using the computer.

This happens regardless of where I download it from, it seems, as I've tried both with the Nvidia website, apt-get and Ubuntu Software Center. I've tried nvidia-current (349) as well as 319, with the same result from both.

I actually sat down and read Nvidia's readme as well, which simply doesn't help.

How do I install drivers that work? Could I be missing a step?

EDIT: Apparently it's not my graphics drivers that are messing with my - it's my screen. I have one of those cheap 27" 2560x1440 monitors, a QNIX QX2710, and this monitor does not report it's EDID correctly. I tried following a couple of guides but with no progress. I'll put this on hold, it's simply not worth the time and frustration.

How do I find my internal ip address? https://askubuntu.com/questions/430853/how-do-i-find-my-internal-ip-address

I have Ubuntu server 12.04 installed, so I have no GUI. When I do the command ifconfig, I cannot find my internal IP address. It says: inet addr: 127.0.0.1.

here are the contents of /etc/network/interfaces:

If someone could edit this for me, the contents of etc/network/interfaces should be on separate lines.

The output of host askubuntu.com was:

I set up owncloud and webmin a few months ago and was using them for a month with no problems. I think the power went off one day 2 months ago and I never turned the server back on until yesterday. I haven't done anything that would have affected the internet setup So i'm not sure why it doesn't work anymore. As far as my network topology goes, I have a pci-e network card for the pc. The ethernet line goes from the network card to a switch, and then to a modem/router from there.
