[00:12] TJ- thanks, i only let it scan because i don't know what i'm looking for in the datalog just yet === leden_ is now known as leden [00:44] So I created a torrent with Transmission, but how do I actually seed it? When I go to my web client, it doesn't show the torrent there? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TransmissionHowTo [00:45] if I do the next section "Add Torrent", is that going to attempt to download the torrent or seed it? [00:49] Bashing-om, bash are you familiar with netbeans? [00:50] rodrigoty23: Nope :D Never seen it . [00:51] does anybody here get netbeans open twice on clicking on the apache netbeans icon?

[00:52] problem* [00:54] I transferred 902GB files via rsync -azv between one network mount to another. Is there any way to "verify" the transfer completed? I've ran rsync a few times and it looks like it's not transfering any more files... wondering if there's any final "check" I can do. It's also very likely rsync is bullet proof and it shouldn't matter - thanks [00:55] goddamnit I wish people would write documentation that's easy to understand [00:56] foo: something like this may do the trick: find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 sha256sum -- then take that output and run sha256sum -c on it on the other side, and see that the results match up [00:59] sarnold: thanks, I see that spitting out a sha256sum during the search - will it error out if there's a mismatch? This is 902GB. :) [00:59] foo: oh my :) [01:00] foo: what about simply checking that rsync completed without errors `echo $?` after running rsync [01:00] foo: then you'll probably want the --quiet flag too, because there'll be a few thousand $foo: OK lines otherwise :) [01:05] skookum1: echo $? returns 23 === tds0 is now known as tds === skookum1 is now known as skookum [01:07] foo: Exit code 23 = "Partial transfer due to error" [01:07] skookum: there was 1 permission error, I wonder if that's what it was [01:08] foo: you might also want to look into the "--checksum" option for rsync instead of trying to verify after-the-fact [01:08] skookum: someone else shared this - rsync -Pahn --checksum /Volumes/Dir1/ /Volumes/Dir2/| sed '/\/$/d' | tee migration.txt - it's awesome. it shows differences between two dirs [01:09] skookum: I did a small test, doing a larger test now [02:24] I have a Dell Precision 7510 Laptop running 18.04. It has been working well for 2 years, but in the last week the keyboard number keypad has stopped working (although it seems to work on the login screen). Does anyone have any ideas where I can start to sort it out. I haven't made any configuration changes, but I have kept up to date with updates [02:26] clarkk: are there any messages in dmesg? or /var/log/Xorg.0.log ? that look related to keyboard issues? [02:27] clarkk: does it seem to work as expected when you use the xev application? [02:31] I seem to remember that there was some sort of bios update from one of the official ubuntu apps (not a Dell app), although I can't remember which. Maybe it's a red herring, but just want to mention it [02:31] sarnold, thanks for responding. The xev seems to receive the mouse input but not the keyboard [02:33] I tell a lie. One moment... [02:34] clarkk: firmware updates are probably fwupdmgr or a gui frontend to it [02:35] sarnold, when I run xev, and click a button on the keypad, it doesn't report the keycode [02:36] clarkk: ugh. that sounds unpromising. is there an Fn lock or Numpad lock button or something similar that you may have hit by accident? [02:36] clarkk: are there options in the UEFI setup for turning that on and off? [02:40] I have numlock enabled. Using gnome-firmware, I recognise an update that I installed a week or so ago [02:40] one moment.

[03:40] or does it strictly only work with the devices listed? [03:40] horseface: ubuntu touch is depraced, its ubports now [03:40] there are not many supported devices in that case and i've never heard of any of them. [03:40] i see. [03:40] i will have a look [03:40] horseface: join #ubports to join the community [03:40] cool, thanks. [03:49] i just did a boot repair and it says to make my BIOS boot on sdb1/EFI/ubuntu/shimx64.efi [03:49] how do you do that [03:52] pretty sure im not running secure boot anyways [03:53] Hello Ubuntu Com.! Anyone up for my late night? Can anyone help me with my Latenight no Audio struggle? [04:16] hey all, my laptop locks my screen after in activity and I don't want that. screensaver is off and power manager is set to do nothing when plugged in, yet it still happens. What can I do? [04:21] I bought a RTX 2080, but now I have a boot problem: it has three Display Ports and a HDMI port. I have all four connected. It now boots on one of the DP ports, but that is my VR headset and that doesn't even show the grub menu or anything (not with USB still down). [04:21] I tried using that DP port for one of my DP monitors, but then - despite that it gets a signal the screen remains black :/ [04:22] I don't think it is possible to someone tell the video card to use the HDMI port as boot monitor? Then why does it not work when I try to boot from a monitor with DP? [05:21] hello [05:22] tried this before but lost the instructions. What package do I need to install to check out the SMART setting on a hard drive? [05:32] Peppi: disk tools in ubuntu can perform a smart test on your HD [05:35] lotuspsychje, how do I install that? sudo apt-get xxx?

Possibly all the help I can be. [06:22] Peppi: looks like a passed test to me, why did you suspect HD issues exactly? [06:22] sorry guys that was the wrong hdd. I've put the right one in now. Give me a few minutes [06:23] Peppi: are you gonna plug it over sata? [06:24] lotuspsychje, I'm using an ordoid hc2 running ubuntu 18. So to answer your question yes over sata... though apparently there is a usb bridge in there somewhere. [06:24] lotuspsychje, not sure if that answers your question [06:24] Peppi: over usb bridge, the smart test wont go [06:25] https://forum.odroid.com/viewtopic.php?f=147&t=31104&p=224660&hilit=smart#p224660 [06:25] wait [06:25] https://forum.odroid.com/viewtopic.php?t=31213 [06:26] lotuspsychje, so... it will work right?

[06:34] the data is "backed up" [06:34] Peppi: format and do a smartmontools 'long' test on it [06:35] Peppi: sudo smartctl -t -C /dev/sdX for example [06:35] sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda -d sat is the command I'm using now [06:36] Peppi: yeah thats a regular test [06:36] so sudo smartctl -t long -C /dev/sda -d sat is what I should do? [06:37] Peppi: not sure -d sat is needed in this case [06:37] yes it's needed [06:37] oh kk, try then [06:37] becasue of usb bridge [06:37] right [06:38] https://termbin.com/kyfq [06:39] A mandatory SMART command failed: exiting.

They are supported both in #ubuntu and in their flavor channel. For a list, see https://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu-flavours [06:47] I dont know the name of it so that isnt going to help a lot. [06:47] tripelb: sounds like you're describing a "window manager", which is frequently contrasted to a full-blown desktop environment [06:47] tripelb: a "tiling window manager" is a particular trendy type these days [06:48] it isn not any of those. [06:48] I think Lubuntu uses LXDE which uses openbox (window manager) historically [06:48] Peppi: -C, --captive [06:48] yes that is the kind. NOPE not Lubuntu. I know that. The LUG advised against that years ago. Now they are all on school break. [06:48] tiling is the kind? [06:48] I can look it up now. thanks. [06:49] lotuspsychje, yes but why captive mode?

I am getting Regolith. Above I said that now I know it is called "tiling" I can look it up myself [06:52] tripelb: so not ontopic for this channel.. [06:52] thanks matsaman. I googled it and fount tis one. but... I will look at your link. [06:55] lotuspsychje, well it fails with that error :/ [06:57] Ah yes, I3 is the one I had heard about [06:57] lotuspsychje, what isnt ontopic? [06:57] Regolith IS Ubuntu [06:58] like mate IS ubuntu [06:59] tripelb: its a derivative, and not supported here [07:00] you really seem to want to make it difficult for "people" not sysops people. Tell me is there a supported tiling window manager? [07:00] lotuspsychje, ^^^ [07:00] This channel is the reason I CAN use Ubuntu [07:01] tripelb: we have several channels where you can talk about all sorts, but here in #ubuntu we need to follow the guidelines and support ubuntu issues [07:01] tripelb: feel free to join #ubuntu-discuss for package reccomends [07:01] repeat, is there a tiling manager that IS ubuntu so I can use it and ask in the channel [07:02] tripelb: software reccomends does not fall under support questions, use another channel for that please [07:03] I am not trying to fight you. I have been using ubuntu since 6.04 which "just worked". But then with 12 things didnt just work any more... etc. My 18.04 for instance kept saying it had problems. as did 1604... [07:03] I didnt ask you to recommend one I just asked if there is one. [07:03] If I asked which de had an application tree you could tell me... or someone else could. [07:04] Let me just go away today and come back when the people I have seen here before are herel Thank you for all the work that you do here. I do appreciate this channel and the time and energy of those who help others. [07:05] tripelb: as ubuntu long time member, maybe you could search from your terminal...apt-cache search tiling ? [07:05] ok. I didnt know that. thanks. [07:09] tiling window manager results were: tritium and i3-wm [07:47] Hello.

[09:49] no [09:49] 20.04 will be next LTS [09:50] ok, i didn't upgrade it, i just `apt update && apt dist-upgrade` it [09:50] still is 18.04 , right ? === anonimip_ is now known as anonymip [09:52] i don't make it 19.04 then [09:52] should be, verify with 'lsb_release -r' [09:52] Aryan: The 19.04 repos should have been shut down [09:53] if I rename a gzip file, would it change the underlying file name ?

[09:54] in my /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades, i have prompt=lts [09:55] raddy: did you just do gzip mydb.sql [09:55] Yes [09:55] Ben64: Yes [09:56] then why it is upgraded to 19.10 while i had prompt=lts [09:56] ? [09:56] well if you do gunzip it'll use whatever is before the .gz as the name [09:59] Ben64: So, if I rename the gzip, then file name as well be changed, am I correct ? [10:03] Does apt dist-upgrade upgrade the distribution ? [10:03] no, not unless you manually edit sources.list, which is not a supported way to do it [10:05] ducasse: i did apt dist-upgrade and now my ubuntu version is 19.10 [10:06] what happened here ?

[12:45] Howdy folks === led_dark_2 is now known as led_dark_1 [13:27] I was thinking of putting together an Edubuntu box, but see that it is based on 14.04 and hasnt moved forward since then. [13:28] Then I thought I would just set up a vanilla ubuntu box and add the packages, but noted that there was gnome mixed in with kde apps. Do gnome and kde co-exist well without additional vood-doo? [13:28] i think it is still there? not as an iso ..https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/bionic/+package/edubuntu-desktop [13:29] MWM: There is no such thing as "Gnome apps" there are apps that run using GTK libraries for window drawing and management. GTK and QT have co-existed for many years just fine. [13:29] gmm. Ill look at that. Latest version on the Edubuntu pages is 14.04.02 https://www.edubuntu.org/download [13:30] Edubuntu was discontinued, MWM and oerheks [13:30] pragmaticenigma: Ty for the clarification and the answer [13:30] hey. I've got an issue with my gnome / ubuntu 19.04 when hitting windows sign on the laptop and the global gnome search appears, sometimes it locks entire screen so I can't click anything between topbar and bottom bar. To fix it I need to logout and login again. [13:31] or when I close all the windows and desktop appears with the search input, I am able to search, but I can't open anyhing or close the search overlay [13:34] akkonrad: what if you alt + tab ? Ive seen similar with other distros and worked around it with alt + tab [13:35] they left MWM ... Alt + Tab is for application switching, the Logo (Win) key when pressed, opens the application launcher [13:35] I'm guessing they have an extension that is intercepting or affecting the normal behavior of Gnome-shell [13:36] MWM: Is there a specific software package you were looking for in Edubuntu? [13:37] is anyone aware of current Education based distros? seems like the ones I am looking at have all discontinued. [13:37] I was looking at edubuntu as a 'play' machine to give to kids. Gateway into Linux and free alternative to Windows [13:38] No specific requirements except for stability [13:39] Last night I was having problems with my Dell Precision 7510 laptop running Ubuntu 18.04, where the mouse was not behaving reliably (would change to another cursor and I wouldn't be able to click anything) and the keypad wouldn't output any numbers. It may have been due to some standard updates I installed or a bios update. I took the rash move of resetting my BIOS to see if it fixes it, but now the system won't boot [13:39] MWM: "Edubuntu" is still available as a meta package once you have Ubuntu installed. You can use "sudo apt install edubuntu-desktop" ... I don't believe the education edition had any specific limitations, just a software suite preinstalled/curated [13:40] It's a dual boot Windows and Ubuntu. Actually, the system does boot, but straight into windows - and noone wants that, do they! [13:40] sorry I had to quit and re-logout becauase of my issue, does anyone respond to my issue? [13:40] MWM: For stability, I would recommend installing Ubuntu LTS releases. (18.04 is the most recent) [13:40] I have tried going into setup and changing the boot partition to what I think is ubuntu, but it does gives a message and clearly doesn't know where the OS is [13:41] clarkk2: Have you disabled fast-startup in windows? [13:41] That is what I had thought to do, but was worried about the GTK/QT interaction that you already addressed. [13:41] MWM: As long as you don't mess with "themes" everything blends seemlessly [13:42] clarkk2: can you even get to the Grub menu? [13:42] It was quite a long time ago, so I can't quite remember exactly how I set it up. I *think* it's an EFI boot (this may be the wrong term, but I'm a bit out of touch with how it works at this level), and I can see a /EFI/ directory with sub directories of windows, Dell, ubuntu, and in the ubuntu one, it does have grub files [13:43] MWM: No, I can't get into the grub menu [13:43] I can boot to the Ubuntu live disk, which is how I'm chatting here now [13:43] and I can mount some partitions to see what's on them [13:43] clarkk2, how about booting in UEFI mode? [13:43] !uefi [13:43] UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI [13:43] read that manual, disable srt and fastboot. [13:45] First thing I would try is to chroot into the install and update grub but Im not procifient enough to know if that will specifically help your issue [13:45] https://askubuntu.com/questions/88384/how-can-i-repair-grub-how-to-get-ubuntu-back-after-installing-windows [13:45] clarkk2: did you try holding down the shift key while booting, that should bring up the grub menu [13:46] MWM: oerheks - I have not changed anything in windows. Windows and Ubuntu were working correctly until I reset the bios. Some settings may be different in the bios, although it's difficult to say as stupidly I didn't keep a proper record [13:46] if srt and fastboot are within the windows OS, then this is not the answer. If they are in the bios, then they might be. Could you confirm? [13:46] MWM: There's a much smoother approach... grub should be one of the last things recommended at the moment [13:47] clarkk2: Fastboot is a UEFI/System firmware feature [13:47] clarkk2: What have you recently changed on that machine? I assume things were working well up until recently? [13:48] pragmaticenigma: correct - I'll I've done is reset the bios [13:48] pragmaticenigma: good I will let you guys help the poor fella. I default to nuking the drive and reinstalling when I get too mixed up. You guys can probably save him from my help :D [13:49] what is SRT? [13:49] I am gonna stick around though and see if I can learn anything from the advice given [13:49] clarkk2: Then it's very likely your BIOS that caused your issue... check there for the fastboot (I'm not familiar with SRT) being set [13:49] MWM: Me too ;) [13:51] I will disable fastboot. I don't know (or maybe, remember) EFI - if it has some configuration that tells it where the boot sector is, then could this have been wiped? [13:52] from the bios alone - not from the OS [13:52] literally the ONLY thing I did was reset the bios to factory settings [13:53] clarkk2: with EFI... there aren't boot sectors in the traditional sense, but with fastboot, it will often default to the first partition or system disk found (or last used if you managed to interrupt the previous boot) [13:54] EFI systems, each OS places a marker in the EFI partition table to signal that it is bootable and where to find it's boot handler [13:54] Sorry if I'm asking anyone to repeat themselves. I'm just asking all these questions now because it takes me quite some time to get back onto freenode once I reboot the machine, because I have to configure everything from scratch again. [13:55] pragmaticenigma: does that get cleared when you reset the bios settings? [13:55] clarkk2: That is something you would have to consult the manual of your system for [13:56] hmm, damn [13:56] ok, thanks for everyone's help. I'll come back to tell you the outcome, regardless of what it is [13:56] laters [13:56] clarkk2: I suspect disabling the fastboot will get you much further along [13:56] thanks [13:56] clarkk2: from there... the worst you might have to do is repair grub [13:58] MWM: To follow up... the edubuntu-desktop package will install the ubuntu-desktop meta package (gnome-shell) ... I would recommend using Gnome for the edubuntu experience [13:58] MWM: https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/edubuntu-desktop [13:59] ty for that. As I said my main worry with that course of action was instability between GTK/QT. Now that I know that isnt an issue I can rest easy. THanks again :D [14:01] MWM: sure thing... just wanted you to be informed what that metapackage would do. You can also look at that page and see what packages are installed and pick and choose what you'd like instead of using the entire meta package [14:02] MWM: IN there there are also ubuntu-edu-preschool, ubuntu-edu-primary, ubuntu-edu-secondary, ubuntu-edu-tertiary ... software bundled (meta packages) that install level specific recommended software [14:07] yaaaayyyyyy :) [14:08] So, fastboot was set to "thorough", while the other two options were "automatic" and "minimal". I kept it on thorough, because it seemed like the opposite to fastboot. [14:09] That didn't work, so I went back into the bios and added a UEFI boot option to the list. I just had to name it and point it to the boot.efi file in the ububtu EFI directory I mentioned earlier [14:09] Go team Linux! [14:09] Now I'm back up and running. Thanks so much everyone [14:13] Is there any information available on how Ubuntu Base images are created? [14:13] clarkk: You're welcome, glad we could help you out. Even better... you are now more an expert on EFI than me :-) [14:13] Bun: That would be a question better suited for #ubuntu-devel I think [14:14] alright, I'll try there, thanks [14:23] I got Xorg input lock ups sometimes, it forces me to switch to console mode when i can, but usually to reboot, any idea what it could be? [14:24] The mouse can still move, but buttons aren't responding, and keyboard neither. Killing X, restarting the session didn't help. [14:24] It's an HP Pavilion laptop. [14:28] akem_: wich ubuntu release is that? [14:28] lotuspsychje, 18.04 [14:29] akem_: on wich kernel and graphics card? [14:30] lotuspsychje, Nvidia drivers, kernel 5.4.6, i built it myself because of my Wifi driver. [14:30] ah, do you get lockups on current bionic kernel akem_ ? [14:31] lotuspsychje, I don't know, i don't use it. My Wifi driver was leaking with the Ubuntu kernel. I couldn't use it. [14:32] I wonder if this could be related to the Nvidia drivers somehow, some interrupt or something not directly the inputs...In console mode it worked. [14:32] akem_: wich card and driver version? [14:33] lotuspsychje, v 390.77, it's an optimus laptop with both intel/nvidia. [14:34] 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Skylake GT2 [HD Graphics 520] (rev 07) [14:34] akem_: if there are higher driver versions available you could try those too [14:34] Hm it doesn't display the Nvidia chip on that line. [14:34] akem_: can you pastebin your dmesg plz? [14:37] lotuspsychje, https://gist.github.com/akem3210/f2784ace8b6812e128ca344e381c0f0c [14:38] akem_: meanwhile, can you check if you got crash logs in /var/crash ? [14:40] lotuspsychje, I see that: [15823.993296] i915 0000:00:02.0: GPU HANG: ecode 9:1:0x00000000, hang on rcs0 [14:40] [15823.994301] i915 0000:00:02.0: Resetting rcs0 for hang on rcs0 [14:40] yeah that looks something akem_ [14:40] lotuspsychje, no just unrelated in /var/crash, chromium and virtualbox... [14:40] i915 is the intel graphic chip if i'm not mistaken. [14:41] yep [14:41] akem_: [drm:gen8_reset_engines [i915]] [14:42] akem_: think you might boot a few other kernels, and compare if you can reproduce this, to rule out its about kernel 5.4 [14:42] !info linux-image-generic bionic [14:42] linux-image-generic (source: linux-meta): Generic Linux kernel image. In component main, is optional. Version 4.15.0.91.83 (bionic), package size 2 kB, installed size 16 kB [14:43] !info linux-image-generic-HWE-18.04 bionic [14:43] lotuspsychje, I think my Wifi will crap out with 4.X kernel :( [14:43] linux-image-generic-hwe-18.04 (source: linux-meta-hwe): Generic Linux kernel image. In component main, is optional. Version 5.3.0.42.99 (bionic), package size 2 kB, installed size 12 kB [14:43] try HWE akem_ [14:43] Yeah ok. [14:46] akem_: i think its this bug #1861395 [14:46] bug 1861395 in linux (Ubuntu Focal) "system hang: i915 Resetting rcs0 for hang on rcs0" [Undecided,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1861395 [14:47] akem_: fix #49 [14:49] akem_: seems thats current 20.04 kernel updated yesterday [14:50] lotuspsychje, Yes it's this bug. Thanks. [14:50] : ) [14:56] I'm trying to do a port forward from tun0:5060 -> IP_on_eth1:5060 using ufw and it doesn't seem to be working [14:57] should I see 5060 in netstat -lunt? [14:57] acovrig: I think providing the volunteers here with the exact entry you've added to ufw would help [14:58] Hi, was hoping someone can help me with an issue. I have a Harman Kardon Soundsticks stereo connected to my computer, its connected straight into the motherboard audio out plug. Problem is that Ubuntu seems to put this connection in power saving mode or something like this, because it disconnected the stereo after a certain amount of time. Is there anywhere I can configure audio power mangement to disable power saving? I'm on a stationary, not a [14:58] laptop. Thanks [14:59] sudo iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i tun0 -p udp -d tun_ip --dport 5060 -j DNAT --to phone_server_ip:5060 [14:59] acovrig: That's not ufw... that's iptables [15:02] TJ-: are you around today? i re-ran the losetup command we were discussing yesterday as at some point during one of my earlier reboots the drive letter changed and i didn't notice... facepalm moment for sure. anyway, i see this output: /dev/sda2: Linux rev 1.0 ext4 filesystem data, UUID= (extents) (large files) [15:02] (huge files) [15:03] that's more promising, right? [15:05] pragmaticenigma: I guess I'm used to iptables (never used ufw), the guides I see mention ufw for allowing/denying traffic, but iptables for forwarding, can ufw not forward? [15:06] sudo ufw allow proto tcp from any to x.x.y.y port 80 [15:06] something like that? [15:06] ufw can forward... however I don't know how to mix ufw with iptables... I would pick one or the other [15:06] OK, say I pick ufw (cuz I guess it'd be good to learn it), how do I forward with it? [15:07] oerheks: sorta? I have sudo ufw allow proto udp from any to tun0_ip port 5060, but that doesn't route it to the sip server, it just allows the traffic to the FW [15:11] pragmaticenigma: I added "-A PREROUTING -p udp --dport 5060 -j DNAT --to-destination sip_server_ip:5060" to "/etc/ufw/before.rules" and restarted ufw, but I don't see 5060 in netstat... [15:12] so what do I do if networkmanager is having a hard time connecting to my access point? [15:13] acovrig: I'm not familiar with firewalls enough to help in this scenario.. I was only trying to encourage you to provide more information for other volunteers to pick up on [15:14] acovrig: see also the #netfilter channel [15:14] Can I get some help installing Emacs26 Lucid on Ubuntu 16.04.6 LTS? [15:14] It's not in the repo and the deb has unmet dependencies. [15:16] tsaka__, no. [15:17] unless you want to use an untrusted PPA https://launchpad.net/~kelleyk/+archive/ubuntu/emacs [15:18] tsaka__: Support here is only for software that is available in the repos... installing software from other sources is at your own risk [15:18] jups, we don't fix things in that ppa too. [15:18] tsaka__: there's an emacs snap 26.3 if you want [15:18] tsaka__: if you require a newer version of an application... you should upgrade your version of Ubuntu, to a version that includes the targetted version of the software you wish to use. Note: 16.04 is coming up on EOL within a year [15:19] BTW, 18.04 doesn't have emacs26 in the repo (that I've seen) - I personally either install it from that ppa or build from src [15:20] lotuspsychje: thanks, I'll as on netfilter when I get back === acovrig is now known as acovrig_afk [15:20] the kelleyk repo doesn't package emacs-lucid :/ [15:20] next FOcal 20.04 will .. https://launchpad.net/emacs/+packages [15:20] tsaka__: there is emacs 26.3 as a snap [15:20] hggdh: with lucid? Where? [15:21] 16.04 = xenial [15:21] tsaka__: snaps will run on any supported Ubuntu. Just run 'sudo snap install emacs' [15:21] i'm not talking about lucid, the ubuntu version [15:21] but emacs-lucid, the package [15:21] https://snapcraft.io/emacs [15:21] different GUI than emacs [15:22] tsaka__: "snap find emacs" [15:22] ah, no, I do not thing so [15:22] emacs-lucid - GNU Emacs editor (with Lucid GUI support) [15:22] lucid had no emacs26... how did you get that idea? [15:23] oerheks: Not Ubuntu Lucid... Emacs with Lucid support [15:23]
