alkisgbanana: it's called "unattended updates hanging"18:51
alkisgPretty stupid, in my installations I disable unattended updates18:51
alkisgfrom software-properties-gtk18:51
banana@alkisg but it's even with a restart18:51
bananaso how do I disable unattended updates?18:52
banana(I actually mean installs, not updates)18:53
alkisgOpen a terminal and run software-properties-gtk18:53
alkisgit says "when there are updates... update automatically"18:53
alkisgput it to "notify me only"18:53
bananathen reboot?18:54
alkisg...yeah ok that'll work too18:55
banana@alkisg nothing19:06

onioHi anyone know how to turn off the sound that ubuntu mate 18.04 mates when hitting backspace on empty text window20:34
oniosee my sound settings https://imgur.com/a/zBA0om720:42
m4tonio: yes21:21
m4tlocal diversion of /usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo/bell.ogg to /usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo/bell.ogg.disabled21:22
m4t:)21:22
m4tit's actually pulseaudio tries to play the sound using that file...so i just moved the file21:22
m4tdpkg-divert --local --rename --divert /usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo/bell.ogg.disabled --add /usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo/bell.ogg21:22
oniom4t: cool thanks let me give a try21:23
m4tmight need to restart pulseaudio21:23
oniom4t: okay thanks21:23
m4tnp, yeah that is annoying21:23
onioyou know what I am talking about21:23
m4tyeah that's why i spent a while trying to make it go away hehe21:24
m4ti wanted to do it without editing the pulseaudio conf...21:24
m4thence the divert21:24
oniom4t: I have just renamed the bell.ogg file. Do I also need to run the dpkg-divert --local --rename --divert ...21:27
m4tthe reason for the divert is because a.) it doesn't break e.g. debsums, and b.) it will rename it automatically when the package is upgraded21:28
m4ti'd move it back to the original filename, then run the dpkg-divert command21:28
m4tthe --rename flag means dpkg-divert will rename the file as part of the operation21:28
oniom4t: okay fine thanks let me do that21:28
oniom4t: do I log in/out to restart pulse?21:30
m4tpulseaudio -k should be sufficient21:31
oniom4t: you  are star :)21:36
m4tyep21:36
* m4t #121:36
onioThanks21:36
m4tthat's why i make the big bucks21:36
m4t...er wait, nevermind :~(21:36
onioI like your sense of humor21:36
