[00:03] I have a bash file that is being executed and I want it to print itself, starting at line 3 and on, but interpret every ${variable} as shell env variables. [00:04] I suppose I have to run each line through echo? :/ [00:05] anyone have ideas on what happened here, or how to fix this dpkg install ... https://pastebin.com/CXCnJT51 [00:06] actually, it appears that the kernel did install in /lib/modules [00:07] i'm thinking it's a grub error of sorts [00:07] leftyfb, ubottu thanks [00:08] pepperoni, is this debian? [00:09] i am noob in linux, i have write 'sudo apt upgrade' minute age, and in log get 'Generating grub configuration file ...' then 'Adding boot menu entry for EFI firmware configuration' [00:09] why install a debian kernel in ubuntu?? [00:09] it that normal? (i mean security) [00:09] oerheks, ubuntu based on it [00:09] oerheks, on debian [00:10] don mix packages, for sure. [00:10] oerheks: no, it's ubuntu 18.04 [00:10] pepperoni, no support then, use ubuntu kernels only. [00:10] oerheks: it is an ubuntu kernel [00:11] it uses dkms as the package manager, it's one i built [00:11] no, it is not.

[00:23] ideally I'd like a local installation [00:25] guys i have create file '144' and want to make it executable. i set in properties 'Allow executing file as program'. but it's still opened as text file [00:26] i put the file in Documents folder. then i ran terminal in that directory and try to '144'. and... 'command not found' [00:26] why ? [00:26] fd2: ./144 [00:27] p0a, thanks, it worked out. but why ./ ? [00:28] fd2: the terminal by default looks up commands in $PATH [00:28] fd2: when you typed 144, it looked into $PATH, found no files named 144 and complained [00:29] fd2: the name ./144 is a relative path; . means current directory [00:29] so you're forcing the terminal to look at the specific file you want. [00:30] hm. i launch terminal from popup menu from the folder, and when i type 'pwd' it return '/home/user/Documents'. why then default looks up cmd dont set to that folder? [00:32] i have then other question. what does the reason to change current folder (i mean that pwd return) if folder for commands don't change ? [00:32] fd2: it just doesn't work like that. It looks at $PATH [00:32] try echo $PATH [00:32] which is a list of paths separated by : [00:32] you change the directory to execute commands like `ls' without having to specify the directory [00:32] among other thnigs [00:33] aaa, thank you! [00:40] one more question. i want to add hotkey to open terminal (i know about ctrl+alt+t). on WIN+C. i go to settings-devices-keyboard. there is a Plus buttons for new shortcut. Question: what command opens the terminal? [00:43] solved - 'gnome-terminal' [01:27] bah linux is more bug than something else it seems :(( === the_ant1 is now known as the_ant [01:33] how do i set up a wireguard connection in network manager?

Is there anywhere I can configure audio power mangement to disable power saving? I'm on a stationary, not a [09:05] laptop. Thanks [09:08] lotuspsychje: of course, but they should return the same results if one searches for "airplay" .... [09:09] eeos: did you not get results on synaptic? [09:10] lotuspsychje: nope .... that is the reason I came to the room, not rsults on synaptic or google .... I did not think about apt search sorry. [09:11] eeos: im getting results on apt-cache search airplay, aka 5 packages [09:11] lotuspsychje: and now that I have run apt search, I get also the results on synaptic ..... mmmm .... there must be something wrong with my configuration.

[12:38] Monona: could you compare it with another cam app, kamoso for example? [12:45] MWM: The path you mentioned is there only for legacy purposes. It is not active by default. netplan and NetworkManager create configurations and push them to systemd-networkd which does do the management of your connection. Is there a specific need that you have that we might be able to help with? [12:49] MWM: netplan/yami file points to network-manager as the renderer ... the /etc/network inyerfaces file will work with dhcp if you want to use it, but you'll need ifupdown and disable network-manager [12:50] interfaces that is [12:52] I get problem with mouse clicks.

On the screen for setting up the displays, there is a button to save X-configuration file. Save it to your local user account folder. Then use sudo to move the file into /etc/X11/ folder. Make sure that if there is already a file there, you back it up by moving it somewhere safe. === tehaugz is now known as augz [15:03] hi! :) i have a new hard drive. can I install ubuntu on that while logged in on my ubuntu [15:09] ufk: not really, no === tuxiano_ is now known as tuxiano [15:21] hello [15:22] :-) [15:24] :-) [15:25] How can I install a specific version of gcc? [15:25] e.g. 7.4.0 ? [15:25] I have ubuntu 18.04 [15:25] unfortunately 2 days ago the gcc version was updated to 7.5.0, which will break one or two things [15:26] have you tested whatever you are talking about breaking [15:27] zen_coder, i think not, even the toolchain gives 7.5 https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-toolchain-r/+archive/ubuntu/ppa [15:27] fix your code [15:27] right === tds8 is now known as tds [15:27] are you guys at home due to coronavirus? [15:28] What virus? [15:28] Corona Virus [15:28] COVID-19? [15:28] sumagna: This isn't a chat channel. Please visit us in #ubuntu-offtopic [15:28] ok [15:28] sorry for that [15:29] !info clamav [15:29] clamav (source: clamav): anti-virus utility for Unix - command-line interface. In component main, is optional. Version 0.102.2+dfsg-0ubuntu0.19.10.1 (eoan), package size 122 kB, installed size 762 kB [15:29] oerheks: so there is no way to get back to a previouse version? [15:30] zen_coder, that would be unlogical, fix your code [15:30] there is no known way [15:30] why is it unlogical to have a certain version installed? [15:31] seems to me like a system failed by design, which does not allow this [15:31] what? [15:32] what? [15:32] system failed by design? [15:32] zen_coder: Updates to GCC are to fix errors that lead to problems in the compiled applications. If your application is not compiling with the latest version, the appropriate action is to file a bug report, in case it is a regression issue. Beyond that... it's more likely that you have been leveraging a "feature" that was found to be inadvisable going forward. That is why the recommendation is to fix your code [15:33] yea [15:33] sumagna: I want to install a certain version of an application of gcc [15:34] -gcc [15:34] inside of ubuntu [15:34] but this seems to be not possible [15:34] pragmaticenigma: sure it is an error on our side [15:34] i can understand but there is no official way [15:34] seems so [15:35] however, this mean the whole architecture to install application within Ubuntu is failed by design [15:35] simple as that [15:36] Monona if you're still there, i think that maybe your webcam is hw disabled; check if you have a key combo to activate it or check your bios === themattbeballin is now known as WARBIRD199 [15:37] zen_coder: No, Ubuntu strives for stability, which is why it doesn't version chase the latest versions of applications "in release" ... when an update is provided, it is because there is a vulnerability patch or critical update. That is why there are release versions of Ubuntu [15:39] zen_coder: If you are encountering an issue with the version presented, then it's on you to fix your code or research what is failing and file an appropriate bug report. === Kiwis6 is now known as Kiwis [15:45] do you guys know a site that provides bash scripting tutorial for free?

The official link takes you to a defunct page [15:56] http://www.rastageeks.org/downloads/ov51x-jpeg/ov51x-jpeg-1.5.9.tar.gz [15:56] linked from here: [15:56] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Ov51x [15:57] very old source https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ov51x-jpeg [15:57] saphire_orb: That page was from 2013... it is very unlikely at this point you would need to install that, as it has very likely been superseeded by something else [15:57] https://github.com/toots/ov51x-jpeg [15:57] 5 years .. [15:58] Code has since then been merged into the linux kernel and jpeg decompression is provided via libv4l [15:58] saphire_orb: perhaps with more details, the volunteers here can help find that updated method of supporting your device [15:58] yes, was thinking it might be superceded, but by what? Its an old cam and it works in VLC but not in other applications? [15:58] The cam is a PS2 Eyecam [15:58] !info libv4l [15:58] Package libv4l does not exist in eoan [15:59] might be looking for v4l-utils ?? [16:00] jups\ [16:00] I have some v4l and v4l2 stuff installed, but.... for example v4l2ucp does not seem to know what to do with the device. Just displays info but most controls are disabled. Thought it might be a driver issue [16:00] I have v4l-utils installed. Added nothing to menu and I don't know what to do with it. [16:01] saphire_orb: If the system is recognizing the device, it is not a driver issue [16:01] so it works in vlc, how about cheese? [16:02] pragmaticenigma well it does come up in lsusb: [16:02] Bus 003 Device 007: ID 054c:0154 Sony Corp. Eyetoy Audio Device [16:02] not tried cheese - what a strange name for an app? [16:03] :-) [16:03] saphire_orb: In some cultures, to get a subject to smile... they're asked to say "Cheese" [16:03] oerheks just going to try that... [16:04] hmm... cheese reports No device found [16:05] maybe it is an usb2/usb3 port thingy? make sure it is not the blue connector [16:05] = usb3 [16:08] oerheks nah, its in a USB2 port, although I do have blue ports on this machine as well. Tried in both but same result. [16:08] as I mentioned, come up in lsusb and also produces a devices in /dev/videoX [16:10] BTW, had a look in Preferences in cheese and it doesn't come up as a device in the dropdown. [16:11]
