| Uziah | Anyone in here using nextcloud after the update debacle? Also, anyone know what the reliability is? I only ask here because I saw that Martin Wimpress had a post about using the nextcloud box. | 01:03 |

| pepe__ | i have a problem with update | 09:25 |
| pepe__ | https://pastebin.com/PCtHVz0D | 09:29 |
| pepe__ | what going on with this error to update? | 09:30 |
| alkisg | Seems like your server is currently updating, try later or try with the main server | 09:37 |
| pepe__ | I am worried | 09:39 |
| pepe__ | I read that sha1 is not safe | 09:39 |
| pepe__ | Why people keep using sha1 ? | 09:40 |
| alkisg | It's not about security there | 09:41 |
| alkisg | It's about checksum, if they're downloaded OK | 09:41 |
| alkisg | The .deb packages are signed by their authors, that's where security is | 09:41 |
| pepe__ | this checksum sha1 isn't safe | 09:41 |
| alkisg | 1+2+3=6. That's a checksum | 09:42 |
| alkisg | It's not about security | 09:42 |
| alkisg | It's about verifying that your internet connection didn't break the download | 09:42 |
| pepe__ | https://youtu.be/HguaJV7tGtU | 09:42 |
| alkisg | Maybe you don't know the difference between signatures and checksums? | 09:43 |
| alkisg | Google those 2 words... | 09:43 |
| alkisg | sha1 can be used for signatures where it's not secure | 09:44 |
| alkisg | Checksums can be calculated with crc32, with md5, with sha... whatever, | 09:44 |
| alkisg | and there can be collisions, sure; but the signatures in the .debs are not sha1, they're sha512 | 09:44 |
| alkisg | That's where security is, not on the checksum | 09:44 |
| marina | MMM | 09:47 |
| pepe__ | how can i fix the update? | 09:47 |
| alkisg | It's a server issue, you can report it to your country ubuntu servers, or just wait for their update to complete | 09:48 |
| pepe__ | any way that can i do ,to change the country server? | 09:49 |
| marina | still sitting in the classroom........ | 09:49 |
| marina | hi | 09:49 |
| pepe__ | i found a tutorial "how change the mirrirs country server" | 09:59 |
| pepe__ | i gonna try | 09:59 |
| pepe__ | *mirrors | 09:59 |
| pepe__ | i have changed the mirror ,fixed it | 10:09 |
| pepe__ | I do not trust the mirrors of my country. | 10:09 |

| constantinos | hello | 15:48 |
| caligula2000 | somebody know how to lock mate-screensaver from an udev rule | 17:11 |
| caligula2000 | sudo -H -u <user> mate-screensaver-command --lock doesn't any longer work on 17.04 | 17:12 |
| caligula2000 | also no success with "dbus-send --type=method_call --dest=org.mate.ScreenSaver /org/mate/ScreenSaver org.mate.ScreenSaver.Lock" | 17:14 |
| mate|55340 | sup | 17:39 |
| alkisg | caligula2000: services aren't supposed to show GUI items inside the session | 17:54 |
| alkisg | You could e.g. make a dbus service, and have a user-side process listen to events from that | 17:54 |
| alkisg | That's why mate-screensaver runs as the user and not as root... | 17:55 |
