wxl@HMollerCl re: upstreaming they SHOULD be maintained upstream. EVERYONE that uses it should have a manpage and a desktop entry, not just debian/ubuntu users00:05
lubot<HMollerCl> ok, I ask because it's already packaged for arch and getoo and at least in arch they add the .desktop00:06
wxlwell that just shows how bad arch and gentoo are XD00:08
lubot<HMollerCl> It's OK to put desktop in /data?00:15
lubot<HMollerCl> And manpages are in /debian how are the used by other distros?00:15
wxlwell again if they're both in the upstream source, then you don't have to figure out where to put them so much as wwhat to do with them00:16
lubot<Rutvikm> So this isn't working02:12
lubot<Rutvikm> https://telegram.lubuntu.me/support02:12
lubot<Rutvikm> First it said that the system time was wrong … Now the connection is getting reset02:13
lubot<Rutvikm> Is it ded?02:14
lubot<kc2bez> It is working for me.02:14
lubot<Rutvikm> (Photo, 590x1280) https://i.imgur.com/0kNIWxD.jpg02:15
lubot<Rutvikm> @kc2bez [It is working for me.], Is it a private group? Because telegram search isn't returning it. And in India, some Telegram links have stopped loading across the Web due to the partial ban on Telegram02:17
lubot<kc2bez> It shouldn't be private.02:18
lubot<Rutvikm> @kc2bez [It shouldn't be private.], Yes02:19
lubot<Rutvikm> @Rutvikm [Is it a private group? Because telegram search isn't returning it. And in India, …], And yes, This is the reason for the above error02:19
lubot<kc2bez> Well, the link may be broken in your location.02:20
lubot<Rutvikm> Link's working on Singapore VPN02:20
lubot<Rutvikm> @kc2bez [Well, the link may be broken in your location.], Yes, it is. But Telegram search shouldn't be blocking it02:20
lubot<kc2bez> I think the issue with having it searchable in Telegram itself is Spam. So it is unlisted but not private.02:22
lubot<glpzzz> @HMollerCl [wxl: like this https://www.theguardian.com/cities/gallery/2018/may/01/unexpected …], 😲03:02

lubot<The_LoudSpeaker> @Rutvikm re: broken links don't use Jio. You get those kind of errors.15:46
lubot<Rutvikm> @The_LoudSpeaker [@Rutvikm re: broken links. Don't use Jio. You get those kind of errors.], Uhh Ohk15:58
lubot<Rutvikm> I remember reading somewhere Jio was planning to ban telegram all together (ofourse by gov orders) unless we use VPN15:59
lubot<Rutvikm> It'd be bad for them to lose all of Telegram users15:59
lubot<Rutvikm> For non-Indians : Jio is an Indian Telecom Company(Like AT&T or Verizon)owned by Mukesh Ambani who is one of the world's richest men16:01
lubot<Rutvikm> @Rutvikm [For non-Indians : Jio is an Indian Telecom Company(Like AT&T or Verizon)owned by …], The richest man reference intended to highlight the company's business nature which is capitalizing on freebies.. Which eventually led to it being second largest under 3 years. … Thus, they can easily pull of stunts like banning Telegram16:06
lubot for example, thus pulling a majority of internet users in the country away from the messaging platform16:06
lubot<Rutvikm> @Rutvikm [The richest man reference intended to highlight the company's business nature wh …], This freebie capitalizing and eventual service controlling model is extremely risky in any soceity16:07
lubot<Rutvikm> Sorry for long posts, but had to say it somewhere being a FOSS fan😁16:07
The_LoudSpeaker! off-topic16:41
ubot93For discussion unrelated to Lubuntu support or development, please join the #lubuntu-offtopic channel on IRC or https://telegram.lubuntu.me/offtopic for Telegram.16:41
The_LoudSpeakerAnd @Rutvikm, Jio is not capitalising on freebies. I did a thorough study of the industry few months back and you would be surprised to know the results. e.g: It doesn't make any difference to jio if other players even shutdown.16:46
The_LoudSpeaker! info grub2-themes-ubuntu-mate21:14
ubot93grub2-themes-ubuntu-mate (0.3.7, focal): GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2 (ubuntu-mate theme). In component universe, is extra. Built by grub2-themes-ubuntu-mate. Size 65 kB / 143 kB21:14
The_LoudSpeakerow! https://packages.ubuntu.com/source/xenial/grub2-themes-ubuntu-mate just gave me an internal server error21:15
wxlit happens. keeep refreshing21:16
The_LoudSpeakeryup! it loaded now21:16
The_LoudSpeakermate also follows the same rSEED mechanism for getting default packages into mate?21:19
wxluhhh i doubt they have the update script for meta but they have seeds just the same, that work the same21:19
The_LoudSpeakerThen I will go and ask them how did they solve the issue that we encountered  with the grub theme.21:20
The_LoudSpeakeroh! grub2-themes-ubuntu-mate doesn't have a postinstallation script which runs "update-grub"22:08
The_LoudSpeakerWe could do that but have to confirm if grub will automatically recognise it at the time of 'grub-mkconfig' or 'grub-install' during installation.22:23
wxlhuh22:29
The_LoudSpeakerWimpress: Can you help us here? ^ 22:29
The_LoudSpeakerwxl: ?22:29
wxlthat seems like a reasonable solution22:29
The_LoudSpeakerwhat removing the postinst file or asking Wimpress ?22:30
The_LoudSpeakerXD22:30
wxlremoving it and letting install take care of it22:32
wxlof course i'm not sure how that affects the initial boot22:32
The_LoudSpeakerme too. don't know if the live cd/usb will bring it up.22:33
The_LoudSpeakeris there any place where I can emulate the iso formation from rSEED? and see how it turns out?22:34
lubot<kc2bez> The livecd doesn't show grub (and probably doesn't need to)22:34
The_LoudSpeakerlive cd gives options of trying or installing na. Its grub only afaik22:35
wxloh right duh22:35
The_LoudSpeaker:)22:36
The_LoudSpeakerhttps://discourse.lubuntu.me/t/screenshot-thread/221/1823:04
The_LoudSpeakerMaybe we can provide something simillar by default. There was a task na to improve sddm ?23:04
The_LoudSpeakerOr maybe I create one? XD23:05
The_LoudSpeakerAh! autocorrect tells me ubuntu-studio also has its own grub theme23:06
The_LoudSpeaker!info grub2-themes-ubuntu-ubuntustudio23:07
ubot93Package grub2-themes-ubuntu-ubuntustudio does not exist in focal23:07
The_LoudSpeakerow!23:07

ubot93Package grub2-themes-ubuntu-ubuntustudio does not exist in bionic23:08
The_LoudSpeakerI just noticed we have "Ubuntu" in GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR in /etc/default/grub. Shouldn't it be "lsb_release -i -s 2> /dev/null || echo Ubuntu"23:17
The_LoudSpeakeror lsb_release -i -s 2> /dev/null || echo Lubuntu23:17
lubot<aptghetto> @kc2bez [The livecd doesn't show grub (and probably doesn't need to)], Doesn‘t this depend on the boot mode?23:18
lubot<kc2bez> @aptghetto [Doesn‘t this depend on the boot mode?], I guess that is where I was going.23:18
lubot<kc2bez> EFI and bios are different.23:19
lubot<aptghetto> @The_LoudSpeaker> I just noticed we have "Ubuntu" in GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR in /etc/default/grub. Shouldn't it be "lsb_release -i -s 2 [<The_LoudSpeaker> I just noticed we have "Ubuntu" in GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR in /etc/de …], There is some work in progress by ade23:19
The_LoudSpeakerFor EFI, I am sure its grub. @kc2bez23:21
The_LoudSpeaker@aptghetto noted. But shouldn't "lsb_release -i -s 2> /dev/null || echo Ubuntu" be fine as it places "Ubuntu" if 1st command goes wrong.23:24
wxlactually afaik EFI is grub— it's non-EFI that's not23:27
lubot<aptghetto> @The_LoudSpeaker> @aptghetto noted. But shouldn't "lsb_release -i -s 2 [<The_LoudSpeaker> @aptghetto noted. But shouldn't "lsb_release -i -s 2> /dev/nul …], No, if lsb_release fails, it should display Debian. But the expected value is Ubuntu. … Lubuntu is not expected and would result in some „strange“ grub colours.23:31
The_LoudSpeakerdoesn't the GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR value is the value of the entry that's created? The 1st option on grub screen?   How does debian makes sense there when its ubuntu?23:36
The_LoudSpeakercorrect me if I am wrong23:36
wxlreferring to what i said: https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-cdimage/debian-cd/ubuntu/view/head:/README.devel#L7123:38
The_LoudSpeakerIts compulsary that the option on grub screen has to be ubuntu and not lubuntu, right? I think I can make our lxqt hummingbird appear there. Earlier it was set to appear only on entry having name Lubuntu.23:40
lubot<aptghetto> When you test Ubuntu Mate, then you should check it. Debian is the fallback for lazy distributions.23:41
The_LoudSpeakerokay. It is also the fallback for elementary but All I am saying is it should be Ubuntu in case of flavors right? That makes more sense.23:43
lubot<aptghetto> Yes, the expected value is Ubuntu, because GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR is used in grub-install on EFI systems and in the grub.d scripts23:43
The_LoudSpeakernice.23:44
The_LoudSpeakerso coming back, @tsimonq2 @wxl why is it not set to automatically take that from lsb_release -i -s 2.... and set Ubuntu manually? any particular reasons?23:46
The_LoudSpeakerAlso, https://phab.lubuntu.me/D6023:47

The_LoudSpeakerF23:48
wxlahhhhhh23:48
wxlHEY NOW23:48
The_LoudSpeakerThen it makes sense23:48
The_LoudSpeakerSorry23:48
The_LoudSpeakerwxl: if you are not busy, accept D59 ploxx23:49
The_LoudSpeakerThat fixes 2 tasks for me as completed23:50
The_LoudSpeakerAnd I can go forward to separately add grub theme to rSEED23:50
The_LoudSpeakeror should I just add it and you will take care when accepting both? both make changes to rSEED23:58
