[00:34] Hey, I'd like to gvfs mount my disks on 18.10 over CLI. Just like mounting disks in Dolphin. However, gio mount aborts with "Not authorized to perform operation" :( [00:34] I did some research and it hinted me at PolicyKit, but I honestly have no idea what to do [00:34] Does anyone have an idea? [00:35] Also, it's SSH, with no X server running if that matters [00:45] Solution was to use udisksctl instead of gvfs! Works now, udisksctl mount -b /dev/sde1 [04:29] @Linuxophil, https://bubbles.io [05:45] @zparihar, Nice! [05:45] 😉 [05:46] Spinning up and down Linux Dev/Test Environments for Enterprise ogranizations [05:56] Good morning [07:22] is there a way of making my laptop apply the same performance settings when operating on battery as when in charge? i mean that temporarly. there is a big performance diference when editing videos when plaiyng the kdenlive timeline [08:39] x === sam is now known as Guest89726 [09:32] I assume you have tried System Settings > Power Management > Energy Saving > On Battery tab? [09:33] They've timed out about 1.5 hours ago. === Arthur_D2 is now known as Arthur_D === Lord_of_Life_ is now known as Lord_of_Life === blade is now known as givko [17:19] well wishes to everyone [17:41] I want to add a repository to my list, i am going to modify /etc/apt/sources.list [17:41] and add the repo at the bottom [17:41] is this a good idea? [17:42] i'm using kubuntu 18.04, how can i learn the codeword used for this release? [17:42] 'artful', 'zesty', 'yakkety', 'xenial', 'trusty', 'stretch', 'jessie', or 'wheezy' [17:43] azx, i'd say a PPA would be more sefa. [17:43] the reason i am adding a repository is so that i may sudo apt-get update and get new versions of this software, as opposed to downloading the .deb and manually upgrading it every time [17:44] i'm trying to become proficient in linux for every day use, and am not sure if i'm doing things correctly [17:45] PPA? from ubuntu [17:45] i'm trying to get the latest virtualbox software and have it update [17:45] yes PPA. [17:45] Thanks, will look into PPA [17:45] :D [17:45] if i can recall correctly, that is an official ubuntu repository ? [17:46] please excuse my ignorance [17:46] there are a lot of PPAs [17:58] So if i understand correctly, PPAs are repositories maintained by maintainers, through launchpad [17:58] and i'm sure there is some level of validation that goes into a PPA, however a repository can be anything [18:00] And kubuntu 18.04 would be 'bionic' [18:32] I've found a 3rd party PPA for virtualbox https://www.ubuntuupdates.org/ppa/virtualbox.org_contrib?dist=bionic [18:33] very good. [18:35] after setting up key and repo, sudo apt-get update gives me this error: N: Skipping acquire of configured file 'non-free/binary-i386/Packages' as repository 'http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian bionic InRelease' doesn't support architecture 'i386' [18:37] but i don't have 32bit os installed [18:38] so why is it trying to grab that file? [19:58] azx: sounds like a poorly set-up PPA [19:59] one of the beauties of using PPAs is that you can purge them [19:59] !ppa-purge [19:59] To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:/ » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html [19:59] with ppa-purge [19:59] !info virtualbox [19:59] virtualbox (source: virtualbox): x86 virtualization solution - base binaries. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 5.2.18-dfsg-2~ubuntu18.04.5 (bionic), package size 16652 kB, installed size 77065 kB [20:00] so you need newer than Version 5.2.18? azx [20:36] ubottu: how can i find out the exact name of the / [20:36] azx: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [20:36] valorie: [20:37] damn I pingd a bot [20:38] i also have keys for the ppa how can i remove them [20:38] do the keys just verify the authenticity of the package/ [20:40] sudo ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d [20:40] thanks guys! i'm learning more and more about managing my kubuntu :) [20:42] what's the difference between sudo rm -i /etc/apt/sources.list.d/PPA_Name.list and ppa-purge ppa: aside from a shorter command and remembering the path name? [20:43] Ah, i see it removes the packages associated with the ppa as well [20:43] azx: yes, the keys just verify [20:43] no need to remove them [20:43] ubottu is a bot, but I'm a human woman [20:43] valorie: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [20:43] :-) [20:43] * valorie will not comment on that [20:54] Thanks! [20:54] still getting same issue as 3rd party ppa: N: Skipping acquire of configured file 'contrib/binary-i386/Packages' as repository 'https://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian bionic InRelease' doesn't support architecture 'i386' [20:55] i wonder why it's trying to grab i386 :/ [20:55] and i don't think bionic is mentioned in it's supported dist [20:56] oo apparently i can [arch=amd64] [20:57] Swift110 was added by: Swift110 [20:57] ROOT CAUSE : Google dropped support for 32-bit Chrome on Linux triggering an error when updating apt in 64-bit systems (with multi arch enabled) ... details here : [20:57] dang [20:58] chrome borked my system [20:59] but i have nothing in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ [20:59] this is the solution i have found: https://askubuntu.com/questions/741410/skipping-acquire-of-configured-file-main-binary-i386-packages-as-repository-x [21:01] the solution is to modify /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list but my /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ directory is empty
