| lotuspsychje | good morning to all | 05:27 |
|---|---|---|
| lotuspsychje | morning Sveta :p | 05:43 |
| Sveta | morning lotuspsychje :) i am eyeballing http://www.glump.net/howto/desktop/create-global-shortcut-keys-for-rhythmbox-music-player-in-any-desktop and hoping that ubottu's unity advice you gave is going to work | 05:46 |
| Sveta | then i find https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rhythmbox/+bug/950743, it may be relevant | 05:48 |
| ubot5 | Ubuntu bug 950743 in rhythmbox (Ubuntu) "rhytmbox-client commands are not working" [Low,Fix released] | 05:48 |
| lotuspsychje | Sveta: such an old bug on artful? | 05:49 |
| Sveta | it's 5 years old and makara faces similar symptom | 05:50 |
| Sveta | at least it tells me that they need a dbus plugin enabled in their rhytmbox | 05:50 |
| lotuspsychje | yeah sympton is same as bug indeed | 05:51 |
| lotuspsychje | but i presume later rythmbox version on all this years should have fixxed it no? | 05:51 |
| Sveta | they probably has a missing package | 05:52 |
| Sveta | this silence is disturbing | 05:54 |
| Sveta | i don't want to give them 'ppa is unsupported' advice, i need to get info from them first | 05:54 |
| Sveta | get info, like output of apt install | 05:54 |
| lotuspsychje | yeah | 05:54 |
| Sveta | then they go silent | 05:54 |
| lotuspsychje | Sveta: 2 things are a kill for systems, upgrades & ppa's add | 05:55 |
| lotuspsychje | seen alot of them in the past | 05:55 |
| dax | i wish ubuntu had a https://wiki.debian.org/DontBreakDebian | 05:56 |
| lotuspsychje | what does that do dax? | 05:57 |
| dax | it's a page you throw at people doing stupid things | 05:57 |
| dax | like mixing repository versions and installing crap off nvidia's website | 05:57 |
| dax | (and presumably, in our case, thoughtless adding of PPAs) | 05:58 |
| Sveta | i'm trying to figure out whether it's from a ppa or not by asking for policy output | 05:58 |
| lotuspsychje | hmm good idea for ubuntu factoid? | 05:58 |
| dax | if there were a wikipage, a link to it from ubottu would be a good idea | 05:58 |
| dax | the wikis and i do not get along well at all, i gave up a few years ago | 05:59 |
| lotuspsychje | i see | 05:59 |
| Sveta | ok that is not a ppa | 05:59 |
| Sveta | !info rhythmbox-plugins | 06:00 |
| ubot5 | rhythmbox-plugins (source: rhythmbox): plugins for rhythmbox music player. In component main, is optional. Version 3.3-1ubuntu7 (xenial), package size 251 kB, installed size 1541 kB | 06:00 |
| Sveta | what about artful | 06:00 |
| Sveta | !info rhythmbox-plugins/artful | 06:00 |
| ubot5 | Package rhythmbox-pluginsartful does not exist in xenial | 06:00 |
| Sveta | !info rhythmbox-plugins artful | 06:00 |
| dax | space, not / | 06:00 |
| ubot5 | rhythmbox-plugins (source: rhythmbox): plugins for rhythmbox music player. In component main, is optional. Version 3.4.1-2ubuntu5 (artful), package size 345 kB, installed size 1582 kB | 06:00 |
| * dax checks on his request to get that fixed | 06:01 | |
| dax | oh, only a couple of days ago. will poke next time he's around | 06:01 |
| Sveta | i'm confused... where'd they get librhythmbox-core10 3.4.2 from.. | 06:02 |
| Sveta | <chalcedony> hubby's computer is having a bad time. the monitor is full of weird colors and lines (ubuntu 16.04) | 06:04 |
| Sveta | i read that as 'computer is having a bed time' | 06:04 |
| dax | version number google would suggest https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuhandbook1/+archive/ubuntu/apps?field.series_filter=zesty | 06:04 |
| Sveta | so they need to 1) remove the ppa 2) purge everything they've got from that ppa 3) install rhythmbox and rhythmbox-plugins from the official repo | 06:05 |
| Sveta | (1) i can google, (2) i have no idea, (3) is easy | 06:05 |
| dax | yes. ppa-purge will handle at least the first 2 of those, i forget whether it also handles the third | 06:05 |
| Sveta | i think it does | 06:06 |
| Sveta | so it would be `sudo ppa-purge ppa:ubuntuhandbook1/apps` | 06:06 |
| lotuspsychje | dependecy errors mostly scrambled system theirselfs.. | 06:06 |
| Sveta | if this is the case, they need to be told to read the output carefully in case they're using another useful package from that ppa | 06:07 |
| Sveta | yes, i'm waiting on output of `apt-cache policy librhythmbox-core10` to determine whether they're using a ppa | 06:07 |
| Sveta | i need to head out | 06:14 |
| lotuspsychje | laterz mate | 06:15 |
| lotuspsychje | !unity | 06:15 |
| ubot5 | Unity is a graphical shell for the GNOME desktop environment. Ubuntu used it by default from 11.04 to 17.04. For more information, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Unity | 06:15 |
| lotuspsychje | !wayland | 06:15 |
| ubot5 | Wayland is a display server protocol that is intended to replace X. More information can be found at http://wayland.freedesktop.org/ . Ubuntu is instead focusing on development of !Mir; see its factoid for more information. | 06:15 |
| lotuspsychje | dax: another one to fix :p | 06:15 |
| dax | fun | 06:15 |
| dax | !search mir | 06:15 |
| ubot5 | Found: mirrors@download, slow, xmir, gobuntu*, wayland, mirspec, repomirror-#kubuntu*, mirrorstatus, ops-#ubuntu-mozillateam, repomirror | 06:15 |
| dax | oh right, *mir*ror, bleh | 06:16 |
| lotuspsychje | morning EriC^^ | 06:20 |
| Sveta | laters | 06:20 |
| EriC^^ | morning lotuspsychje | 06:20 |
| dax | we have any wikipages for wayland issues yet? | 06:20 |
| dax | wiki.ubuntu.com's Wayland page is not very helpful | 06:20 |
| lotuspsychje | dax: lemme look for that | 06:21 |
| dax | k. so far I'm thinking !wayland is <reply> Wayland is a display server protocol that can be used instead of X. Ubuntu 17.10 onwards use Wayland by default on systems that support it. | 06:22 |
| dax | with an extra sentence if we have somewhere to point to | 06:22 |
| dax | !mir | 06:22 |
| ubot5 | Mir is a display server developed by Canonical and Ubuntu. From Ubuntu 17.04 ( Zesty Zapus ) onward, emphasis has shifted to embedded devices and applications, notably UBports as stated by Mark Shuttleworth ( https://plus.google.com/+MarkShuttleworthCanonical/posts/7LYubpaHUHH ). Regular Ubuntu LTS 18.04 onwards will use GNOME. | 06:22 |
| dax | looks fine already, i just fixed the version to 17.10 | 06:22 |
| dax | the second version that is | 06:22 |
| lotuspsychje | cant find any decent wayland | 06:23 |
| lotuspsychje | just that older wiki | 06:23 |
| dax | will just use the FDO homepage i guess, meh | 06:23 |
| dax | i forget if this is instant | 06:24 |
| dax | !wayland | 06:24 |
| ubot5 | Wayland is a display server protocol that can be used instead of X. Ubuntu 17.10 onwards use Wayland by default on systems that support it. For more info, see https://wayland.freedesktop.org/ | 06:24 |
| dax | guess so | 06:24 |
| lotuspsychje | nice one | 06:24 |
| lotuspsychje | until new wiki thats perfect | 06:24 |
| lotuspsychje | alot of questions arising at main lately, like xrandr replacement,..etc | 06:26 |
| dax | k, gonna go see if i can get sqlite to cooperate and give me a list of http factoids | 06:28 |
| lotuspsychje | cool | 06:31 |
| dax | sqlite> SELECT COUNT(*) FROM facts f WHERE value LIKE '%http:%'; | 06:31 |
| dax | 465 | 06:31 |
| dax | hrm. | 06:31 |
| dax | 386 after i ignore the <deleted> ones. this is gonna be tedious. | 06:33 |
| lotuspsychje | ouch | 06:35 |
| dax | yeah. i'm gonna go by domain i think | 06:36 |
| lotuspsychje | dax: this usefull? https://wiki.gnome.org/Initiatives/Wayland | 06:36 |
| dax | thankfully ubottu supports !foo =~ s/bar/baz/ to replace "bar" with "baz" in factoid "foo", so it won't be absolutely awful | 06:37 |
| dax | (e.g. i just got all the factoids containing http://wiki.ubuntu.com/ and can now use that on each of them without needing to know the contents of the factoid, so i can mock up the commands in a text editor) | 06:37 |
| lotuspsychje | bbl | 06:38 |
| dax | 06:39 < ubottu> You've given me 10 invalid commands within the last minute; I'm now ignoring you for 2 minutes. | 06:40 |
| dax | apparently "invalid commands" includes valid Encyclopedia commands. great. | 06:40 |
| dax | oh excellent, the copy of the factoid database on the website is from 2015 | 06:48 |
| dax | down to 308, will poke at it more tomorrow | 07:08 |

| BluesKaj | someone has put a bug in his ear ...that's where the bug is :-0 | 13:12 |
| Ben64 | how does this guy get through life | 13:19 |
| Ben64 | ah, it's a troll | 13:30 |
| Ben64 | had me fooled till the sigyn name drop | 13:31 |
| BluesKaj | he thinks the chat has become his personal blog ...we need room for real issues that others have | 13:32 |
| Ben64 | yeah | 13:33 |
| Ben64 | just filling the channel with nonsense | 13:35 |
| ducasse | "sending memory dumps behind my back" - lol | 13:44 |
| Ben64 | yep | 13:48 |
| Ben64 | i tried for a bit and realized it was hopeless | 13:48 |
| Bashing-om | Hello Monday support . We can do this :) | 18:47 |
| dax | hrm, no daily ISOs for bionic yet | 19:33 |
| Sveta | <demophobia> My computer froze, I hard-shutoff, and now my trackpad is malfunctioning. How do I restore it to its original functionality? | 23:14 |
| Sveta | <big sigh> | 23:14 |
| daftykins | o0 | 23:14 |
| Sveta | <Sveta> demophobia: what are the symptoms? | 23:15 |
| Sveta | <demophobia> Sveta, frequently click-dragging (highlighting?) when i'm trying only to move the cursor with my finger | 23:15 |
| Sveta | Tempting to send them off to #ubuntu-touch so have someone assist them with calibrating screen sensitivity settings. | 23:16 |
| Sveta | Ah, crap. | 23:16 |
| daftykins | screens aren't touchpads | 23:17 |
| TJ- | Here's something I think is of interest - a replacement for bloated UEFI using the Linux kernel: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15579592 | 23:33 |
| daftykins | yep, everything is broken | 23:42 |
