[00:06] <OerHeks> :-)
[00:30] <seven-eleven> if I connect a serial PCI card does ubuntu automatically configure the device for the serial port or do I have to configure the device manually with `setserial`?
[00:34] <seven-eleven> ahhhh i found the device finally!
[00:34] <seven-eleven> supposed to be ttyS4 http://ix.io/27bx
[00:50] <seven-eleven> seems my cable isn't recognized by the fdti driver :D
[00:59] <Neldogz> I have a silly question, I just configured an mdadm raid1 array on my Ubuntu 18.04 workstation. I added the raid array to mdadm sudo mdadm --detail --scan --verbose > /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf and then also added it to my fstab /dev/md0p1	/media/disks/MD0P1-1TB-RAID1	ext4 defaults 0 2 . The question that I have is, do I have to manually stop the raid before shutting down or rebooting the system?
[01:00] <seven-eleven> Neldogz, nope the kernel takes care of shutting it down
[01:12] <Neldogz> seven-eleven, thank you so much !
[01:14] <ihatednsissues12> Hi, what is the most robust/systematic way to connect Ubuntu18 desktop to windows active server for authentication? (I am having issues with connecting to domain.local)
[01:17] <tomreyn> !YY.MM | ihatednsissues12
[01:27] <ihatednsissues12> tomreyn: 18.04 LTS
[01:29] <tomreyn> ihatednsissues12: much better. now i don't know what "windows active server" is so can't help with your original question.
[01:30] <ihatednsissues12> tomreyn: typo - active directory
[01:31] <tomreyn> probably sssd then. there are a bunch of how-tos on the webs. maybe also on the ubuntu server guide (help.ubuntu.com)
[01:32] <ihatednsissues12> Let me try again: I fresh-installed Ubuntu 18.04 LTS desktop on bare-metal. I tried to follow https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/sssd-ad.html. However, the correct DNS is not populating in resolv.conf. I am looking for the most systematic way to change the DNS server such that I will be able to ping my active directory server at domain.local
[01:32] <ihatednsissues12> which I cannot do currently.
[01:40] <OerHeks> netplan?
[01:40] <OerHeks> !netplan
[01:42] <OerHeks> https://askubuntu.com/questions/1196904/ubuntu-18-04-3-windows-domain-join-guide
[01:42] <OerHeks> first your static ip and dns ..
[01:44] <newdimension> I have a script that creates images and saves them a folder. For some reason when I try to open the folder in Files on Ubuntu 19 it stays showing Loading.
[01:46] <OerHeks> well, sounds like you have over 1000+ images in there..
[01:46] <OerHeks> if you have preview enabled, that would explain it ..  and surely over network
[01:47] <newdimension> OerHeks: I don't. Checked the contents with terminal, and deleted the folder multiple times to see if it was one off issue. The issue stayed, but now is somehow solved
[01:47] <OerHeks> oh oke
[01:47] <OerHeks> you were in that folder, in terminal?
[01:47] <OerHeks> always move out of the house, before blowing it up
[03:17] <Phruis> if I install vanilla gnome can i remove ubuntu-desktop?
[03:19] <glick> hi whats the official ubuntu flathub ppa?
[03:25] <OerHeks> there is no ubuntu flatpack ppa, it is controled by alexander larsson https://launchpad.net/~alexlarsson/+archive/ubuntu/flatpak
[03:25] <pragmaticenigma> Phruis, ubuntu-desktop is a meta package, it is a placeholder that contains the dependencies to install the pieces required for the GUI. Removing it has no impact on your system. But before you try, perhaps back up your system first
[03:25] <OerHeks> !info flatpak
[03:26] <Phruis> pragmaticenigma, ubuntu-desktop and ubuntu-desktop-minimal are optional?  How can i figure out what it will remove?
[03:27] <pragmaticenigma> Phruis, I'll simplify... They are meta packages... removing them does nothing except remove the entry that they were installed. Nothing else happens. They are safe to leave alone
[03:27] <elfatherbrown> Hello friendly friends- Um... im in desktop bionic and vim-gtk is just vim on a gnome terminal. I need me a vim with clipboard capabilities. How do I achieve this?
[03:28] <elfatherbrown> I mean one I can copy from to other X apps
[03:28] <pragmaticenigma> Phruis, A meta package has no size... it is merely a way to install a collection of other packages
[03:29] <pragmaticenigma> elfatherbrown, You're not launching vim-gtk if you are in terminal.. you are launching the vim terminal version.
[03:31] <elfatherbrown> pragmaticenigma, If i go into the app thingie it executes a terminal nonetheless
[03:31] <elfatherbrown> :(
[03:31] <pragmaticenigma> elfatherbrown, If you want the GUI vim... launch gvim
[03:31] <elfatherbrown> If i do windows key and search for vim, same thing. If i search for vim-gtk, vim-gtk3 (all installed), no game
[03:32] <pragmaticenigma> elfatherbrown, again... look for gvim ... if not installed, you can install it with "sudo apt install gvim"
[03:34] <elfatherbrown> pragmaticenigma, you sir, are a genius. And I say this from a very privileged position of being the guy that had neovim installed and thus everything was wrong (cause it takes over vim.gtk alternative)
[03:34] <elfatherbrown> but it works now. I send love and the wish for beer
[03:36] <elfatherbrown> Lord allmighty, how did i survive with ma vim all this time. I hate some things about everything else like atom or vscode.
[03:37] <glick> no one talks in kubuntu
[03:37] <glick> what the hell
[03:38] <pragmaticenigma> glick, do you have a support question we might be able to help with?
[03:39] <glick> yes when im installing a flatpak via discover i get aborted due to failure, with no other clues given
[03:41] <pragmaticenigma> glick, flatpak or snap?
[03:42] <glick> flatpak pragmaticenigma
[03:43] <OerHeks> not sure, you might need to add the flatpak repo.. it is all on their site
[03:44] <pragmaticenigma> glick, I don't believe you can install flatpak applications through the discover app either. I don't know if they're integrated
[03:45] <OerHeks> https://flatpak.org/setup/Ubuntu/
[03:45] <OerHeks> nope, plugin needed, as that guide says
[03:46] <OerHeks> carefull with flatpak, trust the owner.
[03:49] <glick> lol now i get "failed to remove the source 'flathub' when i try to delete the flatpak sourc
[03:49] <glick> man kubuntu is laughably broken
[03:49] <OerHeks> in Kubuntu one would get the answer https://flatpak.org/setup/Kubuntu/
[03:49] <OerHeks> err you are trolling
[03:49] <OerHeks> goodluck with flatpak
[03:49] <glick> no i cant delete the flatpak source i added in discover
[03:50] <glick> just says failed
[03:50] <glick> with no explanation given
[03:50] <glick> lol
[05:40] <N0Lif3> is there any way to pin Wine programs to app bar?
[05:40] <N0Lif3> I can't figure out how to do it.
[06:31] <cybercrypto> N0Lif3: what DE are you using?
[06:57] <N0Lif3> regular stock Ubuntu 19.10, which is Gnome3 I think
[07:00] <cybercrypto> N0Lif3: and you want wine to be one of your favorites in the dock bar?
[07:03] <cybercrypto> N0Lif3: what happens when you click and drag the application into the dock bar?
[07:23] <N0Lif3> nothing, you can't drag exe executables onto the dock bar. It shows up when I run the software, but there's no option to "Add to favorites" like with regular Linux software
[07:23] <N0Lif3> cybercrypto
[07:27] <cybercrypto> N0Lif3: can you try this steps and see if they are still working?

[08:06] <omega_doom> Hello. What does "Screen turns off" option means in the "Screen lock" settings?
[08:12] <EriC^> omega_doom: when the screen turns off it'll lock the session
[08:12] <EriC^> requiring password to continue later
[08:14] <omega_doom> EriC^: Thanks. But when does a screen turn off?
[08:14] <EriC^> like after 15min inactivity, its a setting there
[08:17] <omega_doom> EriC^: not clear. When screen is turned off is controlled in the power settings or somethere else?
[08:18] <omega_doom> blank screen option?
[08:18] <EriC^> omega_doom: the options should be in the brightness&lock and also in the power options
[08:19] <omega_doom> EriC^: Thanks!

[09:45] <suokunlong> Is there anyone using Ubuntu 18.04 LTS could help testing this LibreOffice bug:  https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=129915
[09:54] <lotuspsychje> suokunlong: are you the creator of this bug?
[10:30] <suokunlong> lotuspsychje: yes
[10:30] <lotuspsychje> suokunlong: is there a reason why you did not use ubuntu-bug from ubuntu?
[10:32] <suokunlong> lotuspsychje: Can I use ubuntu-bug if I am using a LibreOffice build of TDF or my own?
[10:33] <suokunlong> I reported many bugs to TDF using TDF bugzilla. I have no experience using ubuntu-bug.lotuspsychje:
[10:34] <lotuspsychje> suokunlong: reccomended if you find a bug on ubuntu, is using a packageversion from the official ubuntu repos, then use ubuntu-bug name
[10:34] <lotuspsychje> !info libreoffice bionic
[10:35] <lotuspsychje> seems like another version you use right suokunlong ?
[10:36] <suokunlong> lotuspsychje: LibreOffice 6.0 is quite old. I am using LibreOffice 6.2 and 6.3
[10:37] <suokunlong> But anyway, I will test it with the ubuntu version of 6.0. But there is little chance I could reproduce this bug in that old version.
[10:38] <lotuspsychje> suokunlong: i understand, but users can only help affect a bug, when its the official package version matching the ubuntu release
[10:38] <suokunlong> lotuspsychje: OK, I will try. Thank you.
[10:40] <lotuspsychje> suokunlong: another way to approach, is to test the snap version of libreoffice and see if you can reproduce there
[11:07] <badsektur> is ubuntu still using unity?
[11:08] <lotuspsychje> badsektur: on 16.04 its default, and on higher versions you can still install unity desktop as a package
[11:09] <badsektur> i am on 18.04 so it has gnome?
[11:09] <lotuspsychje> badsektur: if you are on ubuntu-desktop, default is gnome3 yes
[11:09] <badsektur> cool thanks
[11:12] <suokunlong> lotuspsychje: I have reported it using ubuntu-bug as bug 1859325.
[11:15] <lotuspsychje> suokunlong: thank you for reporting your bug find the official way

[12:14] <lotuspsychje> !info icedtea-netx
[12:14] <lotuspsychje> try this Stoot
[12:15] <Stoot> didn't find it
[12:15] <lotuspsychje> Stoot: you have the universe repo enabled?
[12:16] <Stoot> I think not, it's a live CD ineed to use for some freaking fancy way of installing some other server using idrac
[12:17] <Stoot> OK I added it
[12:22] <Stoot> lotuspsychje works! Now I need to see why I get a connection failed on idrac6
[12:22] <Stoot> I think the same as with java...
[12:22] <lotuspsychje> Stoot: sorry not familiar with idrac myself
[12:23] <Stoot> lotuspsychje yeah some SSLv3 issues I think
[12:26] <Stoot> lotuspsychje are there settings I can change for icedtea ?
[12:30] <lotuspsychje> Stoot: javaws -help is what you need perhaps?
[12:35] <Stoot> fixed!
[12:35] <lotuspsychje> nice Stoot
[12:39] <Stoot> lotuspsychje yes just in java.securty, comment all disable algo lines :D
[12:39] <Stoot> then you are fine
[12:39] <Stoot> fore sure
[13:04] <BluesKaj> Hi folks
[13:18] <jpmh> when I do a ps-efw what is the C column telling me?
[13:20] <Habbie> jpmh, see 'man ps' - it's processor utilization
[13:21] <jpmh> Habbie: I looked there - and I still have no idea what it really means
[13:21] <Habbie> processor utilization. Currently, this is the integer value of the percent usage over the lifetime of the process.
[13:21] <Habbie>                              (see %cpu).
[13:21] <Habbie> is what i see in my man ps
[13:22] <EriC^> jpmh: it means (i think) that during the life time of this process, it used xx% of the processor
[13:22] <Habbie> yes
[13:23] <jpmh> Habbie & EriC^   OK - but I have rarely seen it as anything other that 0
[13:23] <Habbie> many processes use very little CPU
[13:23] <EriC^> jpmh: the daemons and servers for me are up to 7 or so, the rest all 0's
[13:24] <EriC^> i'd guess the daemons would have a higher number cause they've been running for so long
[13:24] <jpmh> EriC^: TY - for me nothing is other than 0 and I have daemons that have been up for days
[13:24] <EriC^> same here, just checked my vps, mostly 0's
[13:25] <Habbie> it's not about running longer
[13:25] <grewtin> i have a daemon with 2
[13:25] <jpmh> Habbie: I would agree with that - I'm going to make a tight loop process and see what I see
[13:25] <Habbie> in fact, if a daemon runs longer, but does little, the percentage will just be lower
[13:25] <grewtin> in the vps
[13:25] <grewtin> but the vps its nullrouted
[13:26] <EriC^> jpmh: i just did one, it goes up with time, then when i kill the loop it slowly goes down as time passes
[13:27] <jpmh> EriC^: and Habbie - TY so much - got it now - and sure enough my tihght loop process was 92 - I guess I just have such an underused server that there is never anything big enough to show up
[13:27] <EriC^> Habbie: i think it has to do with time, cause same process usage, with time it goes up in the C column, then windles down slowly
[13:34] <Habbie> EriC^, then the process was more active for a while, and then less active
[13:35] <EriC^> Habbie: nah it's the same process, it has to be time dependent anyways, cause it still shows up even after i kill the loop and windles down
[13:36] <EriC^> it doesnt go from 80 to 1-2 right away, goes like 80..78..77..etc it's time dependent
[13:36] <Habbie> oh yes
[13:36] <Habbie> it's an average over the whole run time of the process
[13:36] <Habbie> so obviously it will move slower if the process is older
[13:36] <EriC^> yup exactly
[14:24] <sine0> Description:    Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS, bionic

[14:25] <sine0> great
[14:25] <sine0> and what about full install lamp
[14:25] <lotuspsychje> sine0: update your system first
[14:26] <sine0> am I out of date then
[14:26] <lotuspsychje> yes
[14:26] <sine0> im just doing a massive rsync so i will do it once it completes
[14:35] <jpmh> I see a mount point /run/user/1000 when I am signed on as user 1000 - what creates/mounts this?  When I ssh in as user 1002 I do not see a /run/user/1002
[14:49] <ca1ek> I'm trying to upgrade my ubuntu cosmic installation
[14:49] <ca1ek> I did the apt update, dist-upgrade
[14:49] <ca1ek> then ran do-release-upgrade
[14:49] <ca1ek> it says my release is unsupported (which is why I'm upgrading)
[14:50] <ca1ek> and that I need to install all updates before I upgrade
[14:50] <ca1ek> there are no updates
[14:51] <ca1ek> nevermind
[14:51] <ca1ek> one package was kept-back
[14:52] <phredus1> Hello, sorry off topic.  pls what is the github irc channel name?
[14:52] <ca1ek> i guess #github
[14:53] <phredus1> so I thought but not able to connect. I'll try again. Thank you

[15:24] <medard> Hey. How to install ubuntu core into VM?(vmware workstation)
[15:24] <medard> I'm, unable to find .iso file.
[15:30] <Habbie> medard, https://ubuntu.com/download/kvm has an image that you should be able to load into vmware
[15:31] <medard> Habbie, Do I really need that ubuntu SSO account?
[15:31] <Habbie> medard, i only know what the page says
[16:11] <quaklo> hey. running ubuntu 19.10. Super annoying: Set up Update via GUI (Software & Updates) to NEVER look for updates. Still update-notifier process gets started, runs in background, and displays me annoying updates.  Any way to disable this without removing the package or restricting the service so it can be easily undone again?
[16:13] <erreur404> in /etc/apt folder you can c&n disable the unatended update
[16:16] <daoudr> test
[16:17] <tomreyn> chances are one of those 1597 bug reports discuss this very issue https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bugs
[16:17] <quaklo> erreur404 well I was aware of the cfg editing. still. hate that solutions. my "ubuntu book" gets bigger and bigger with nonsens like this.
[16:19] <erreur404> I don't want start a troll
[16:20] <erreur404> for me, the cfg edition is the best, but I anderstand it's not the same for you :)
[16:20] <tomreyn> but you could search for a matcching bug report there and flag "me too" and subscribe to it, learn about possible workarounds.
[16:21] <erreur404> in a gui I don't know how doing that
[16:21] <quaklo> erreur404 well, the cfg has nop unattended update. just upgrade. and all update parameters are set to 0....
[16:21] <erreur404> I only use a cli
[16:22] <daoudr> font
[16:22] <quaklo> erreur404 yeah i know you cracks can do the cli in your head. I use linux systems since 2 years, got a 100 page self written book full of nonsens like this because no gui option works. and i am happy with myself know how to cd, nano, chmod in the cli but thats it.
[16:22] <daoudr> how to increase the font size
[16:23] <daoudr> how to increase the font size in irssi
[16:23] <erreur404> I'm not a crack :) but I think it's more simple in cli
[16:23] <erreur404> in a gui, I never forget where is this or this setup ....
[16:24] <quaklo> its only with a documentation. without documentation, you  got to memorize everything. well. I cant. anyway: solution you suggested dont work as I reported. all update parameters are set to 0. still update-notifier gets started.
[16:25] <quaklo> erreur404 readout from my /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/10periodic would be APT::Periodic::Update-Package-Lists "0";APT::Periodic::Download-Upgradeable-Packages "0";APT::Periodic::AutocleanInterval "0";APT::Periodic::Unattended-Upgrade "1";
[16:25] <quaklo> should I add a unattended-update value?
[16:25] <daoudr> what is the command link to increase the font size in irssi
[16:27] <lotuspsychje> daoudr: try the #irssi channel?
[16:31] <quaklo> ....
[16:31] <daoudr> d
[16:33] <daoudr> exit
[16:37] <erreur404> quaklo: set 0
[16:39] <quaklo> erreur404 was researching about that... well. annoying why the mix the terms update and upgrade here. but yeah, set unattended-upgrade to 0

[19:08] <ajrs> Hi
[19:09] <ajrs> When I run two 4K monitors with the nvidia driver I can't get my frames per second over 30
[19:09] <ajrs> any ideas on how to fix this
[19:12] <tomreyn> wonko: can you run this and post the url it returns here
[19:12] <tomreyn> export MYHOSTNAME=us.archive.ubuntu.com; for MYIP in $(dig +short -t A $MYHOSTNAME; dig +short -t AAAA $MYHOSTNAME); do echo "[ $MYIP ]"; curl -sI --resolve us.archive.ubuntu.com:80:$MYIP http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/n/node-yargs-parser/node-yargs-parser_11.1.1-1_all.deb 2>&1 | awk -F ':' '/^(Last-Modified|Content-Length):/ {print}'; echo; done | nc termbin.com 9999
[19:12] <wonko> https://termbin.com/xd2y
[19:13] <tomreyn> wonko: you'd need "dig" installed, which is part of dnsutils
[19:13] <tomreyn> ah apparently you have
[19:13] <tomreyn> so you have a bad proxy server
[19:14] <tomreyn> correct response would be this https://termbin.com/le7n (Last-Modified: Tue, 22 Jan 2019 23:23:19 GMT. Content-Length: 12712)
[19:14] <tomreyn> ajrs: which ubuntu version, which driver is active?
[19:15] <ajrs> I think it was ubuntu 19.04
[19:15] <ajrs> and nvidia driver was active
[19:15] <ajrs> the default
[19:15] <tomreyn> wonko: if it's your own (your organizations') proxy server, your organization needs to fix it, otherwise it's probably your ISP causing this.
[19:16] <tomreyn> ajrs: "was", so no longer an issue?
[19:16] <backnforth> what's the best distro to use now for PHP web development?
[19:16] <ajrs> I reinstalled with windows
[19:16] <wonko> tomreyn: ok, thanks. I'll look into that. I got around it by just installing node 13 with their repo isntead.
[19:16] <backnforth> I'm looking for something that will transition to 20.04 well
[19:16] <pragmaticenigma> ajrs, that is likely a limitation of the graphics card... not a driver issue. You should check the specifications of the graphics card and chipset. Many are only able to handle two 4K monitors at 30fps
[19:17] <tomreyn> backnforth: guess which distribution this channel recommends? maybe ask in #php rather
[19:17] <backnforth> interesting idea. thanks.
[19:19] <tomreyn> wonko: right, that's a workaround, as is using HTTPS for your ubuntu mirrors. but it's not nice that your apt traffic is being modified beyond useful by a http proxy, this can easily become a security risk (i.e. you might no longer get important security patches)
[19:19] <ajrs> I'm pretty sure I'm getting 60fps on both monitors in windows
[19:19] <ajrs> It seems smooth
[19:20] <pragmaticenigma> backnforth, instead of asking at large for a recommendation, look at what your needs and requirements are... then look for a distribution that meets those criteria. Ubuntu aims for stability, so if the PHP application you're building requires bleeding edge libraries, it might not be the best choice.
[19:20] <tomreyn> ajrs: 19.04 is only supported for another 9 days anyways. maybe try 19.10 or 18.04.3
[19:20] <pragmaticenigma> ajrs, Unless you test or look up the specifications, you really don't know... "seems like" is an opinion, not based in fact.
[19:21] <ajrs> I know the difference
[19:22] <pragmaticenigma> ajrs, well up until this point you have failed to tell us what exact version of Ubuntu you are using, or even the graphics card you are using. Personally, I'm unable to read minds, especially over great distances. So I guess you're on your own there bud.
[19:23] <wonko> tomreyn: yeah, I'll definitely be looking into it. I'm pretty sure i set the proxy to pass the ubuntu repos but I might need to update that or something.
[19:24] <wonko> So thanks for that, I at least know where to go look. :)
[19:24] <tomreyn> you're welcome
[19:24] <laerling> Hey. Can you guys please tell me what the window switcher (task switcher) on ubuntu is called? I'm looking to use it on default gnome. Thanks in advance!
[19:25] <pragmaticenigma> ajrs, Currently in the Nvidia line up, only the NVIDIA RTX 2080 and 2080 Ti are capable of 60 fps on dual 4K displays.
[19:26] <ajrs> that's not right, 4K buffer is only 16 megabytes
[19:27] <pragmaticenigma> ajrs, it's not about buffer... its about speed and the bandwidth to push all those pixels through the available bus, at the available clock speed of the chipset
[19:28] <tomreyn> laerling: output of  "ls -1 /usr/share/gnome-shell/extensions/" on ubuntu 18.04.3 running gnome-shell: https://termbin.com/o270
[19:29] <tomreyn> packages gnome-shell-extension-appindicator gnome-shell-extension-caffeine gnome-shell-extensions are installed
[19:30] <laerling> tomreyn, I guess it's alternate-tab then. I only have desktop-icons, ubuntu-appindicator and ubuntu-dock installed on my ubuntu 19.10 system, that's why I was confused.
[19:30] <ajrs> https://www.reddit.com/r/pcmasterrace/comments/blmqqn/would_a_gtx_1660_ti_be_able_supportrunhandle_dual/
[19:30] <ajrs> according to reddit my GPU can do it
[19:30] <ajrs> so I don't know where you are reading from
[19:31] <laerling> tomreyn, what does `dpkg -S /usr/share/gnome-shell/extensions/alternate-tab*` print?
[19:31] <ajrs> so the nvidia driver has a bug
[19:31] <ajrs> basically
[19:32] <tomreyn> laerling:   $ dpkg -S /usr/share/gnome-shell/extensions/alternate-tab@gnome-shell-extensions.gcampax.github.com/   ->   gnome-shell-extensions: /usr/share/gnome-shell/extensions/alternate-tab@gnome-shell-extensions.gcampax.github.com
[19:32] <tomreyn> and there is no other directory or file matching your pattern
[19:33] <laerling> tomreyn, thanks! Which ubuntu version are you running? Because gnome-shell-extensions is not installed on my system. (At least dpkg -l flags it with un)
[19:33] <tomreyn> laerling: see above, 18.04.3
[19:34] <tomreyn> i may have manually installed this package, though, not sure
[19:34] <tomreyn> yes, gnome-shell-extensions is in universe, so probably not installed by default
[19:35] <laerling> Okay. Thanks anyway :)
[19:35] <pragmaticenigma> ajrs, and you're using display port to send the signal to your display?
[19:35] <ajrs> two display ports
[19:35] <ajrs> with the proper cable
[19:37] <tomreyn> laerling: so it must be part of ubuntus' modified gnome-shell, i guess. i did "dpkg -S extension.js" but this doesn't list anything but those packages i listed above. and of those, only gnome-shell-extension-appindicator is in main.
[19:40] <pragmaticenigma> ajrs, In the future, put that information up front: Ubuntu version, Hardware Make and Model numbers (and applicable revision numbers) ... would have saved us a lot of trouble
[19:45] <tomreyn> ajrs: maybe relevant: https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=gsync-compatible-linux https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Variable_refresh_rate#Enable_on_NVIDIA
[19:47] <ajrs> hmm
[19:47] <ajrs> gsync has to do with monitors doing vsync
[19:47] <ajrs> hardware vsync
[19:47] <ajrs> I wonder if it will increase my fps
[20:03] <krisfris1> What are the version numbers in shared library filenames and how are they related to the library's version? For example, libogg.so.0.8.2 is actually libogg 1.3.2.
[20:04] <sethh_89> this ubuntu server chat or specific to desktop versions?
[20:06] <medard> is it possible to mute this stupid sound that terminal makes on error?
[20:10] <ioria> medard, you mean the terminal 'bell' ?
[20:11] <medard> ioria, i mean that stupid sound it makes when you tab in empty directory for example...
[20:11] <bprompt> medard:  I take it that depends on the terminal app you're using, check its settings, it'd have some sound effect for it,  but that's app dependent
[20:11] <ioria> medard, try (in gnome-terminal) edit -> preferences -> unnamed -> Sound
[20:13] <al2o3-cr> medard: echo "bind 'set bell-style none'" >> $HOME/.bashrc
[20:13] <al2o3-cr> or what ever shell you use.
[20:14] <al2o3-cr> or add an entry in inputrc
[20:15] <tomreyn> !server | sethh_89
[20:16] <sethh_89> thank you tomeryn
[20:17] <tomreyn> yw
[20:54] <ika> My default audio output keeps getting switched to one that doesn't work how do I force it to be a specific device?
[20:54] <EggSpurt> where would i report a bug with gparted? Its been destroying USB 3.0 Sandisk drives here in my lab, like, every time
[20:55] <EggSpurt> format the drive and its no longer detected on Ubuntu, although some drives were still detected wiht windows 0 that cant be accessed
[20:57] <badsektur> EggSpurt, is there a #gparted channel?
[20:59] <EggSpurt> no i checked ## also, listen its serious this is the 4th drive its destroyed
[21:02] <EggSpurt> started happening after i installed Ubuntu 19.10 so not really sure who i should tell but i am pretty sure
[21:02] <EggSpurt> its nuking the drives
[21:15] <al14s4> Are you able to link askubuntu questions here?
[21:15] <pragmaticenigma> EggSpurt, how exactly how you using gparted on those drives?
[21:15] <pragmaticenigma> al14s4, If you have already asked a question on askubuntu, it's best to wait for a response there
[21:15] <al14s4> Ok, thanks
[21:16] <compdoc> Ive never used gparted to format pen drives. thats interesting
[21:18] <pragmaticenigma> EggSpurt, Also, I think sandisk might have a utility for repairing the drive if the controller hasn't been completely nuked.
[21:50] <guysoft42> hey all, I am trying to build a RaspberryPi distro based on the ubuntu server image. But I can't seem to figureout how to set up wpa-supplicant.conf. Where should it be placed and does anything need to be enabled?
[22:38] <guysoft42> Ok, figured going as far as installing dhcpd5 and having a wpa-supplicant file. but it seems wpa-suuplicant.service needs something extra to start, but I see no docs about it that dont suggest rippnig the service and hijacking it in some form
