[04:59] <onyx> help
[05:00] <onyx> I need help I can't update I keep getting an error N: Ignoring file 'jgeboski.list”' in directory '/etc/apt/sources.list.d/' as it has an invalid filename extension
[05:00] <onyx> I tried searching days for a solution online
[05:00] <onyx> tried everything suggested nothing works
[05:01] <onyx> I can't remove it or access it
[05:01] <onyx> it says the directory doesn't exist
 Try sudo
 It might be restricted
[05:02] <guiverc> onyx, that is a file added after install (that directory is empty on new installs), so check allusers should have 'read' access to that directory & files inside directory
 yup, but his case seems special
 onyx: Did it work?
 joining over IRC
[05:04] <onyx> still says file is invalid
 I meant something else
 Try using sudo with the commands you want to run on the file
[05:05] <onyx> I always use sudo
[05:05] <onyx> it doesn't help
 Or better, run 'sudo su' and then try run commands
[05:05] <onyx> I tried that too
[05:05] <onyx> N: Ignoring file 'jgeboski.list”' in directory '/etc/apt/sources.list.d/' as it has an invalid filename extension
 onyx: does the dir even exist?
[05:05] <onyx> that's the error I get
[05:05] <onyx> every time
[05:06] <onyx> says it doesn't
 Did you add that file?
[05:06] <onyx> yeah it's an extension for pidgin
[05:06] <onyx> purple plugin
 Then that is a 3rd party plugin isn't it
[05:07] <onyx> yeah
 It should be in such a format: … deb <repo> <version> main
[05:09] <onyx> I don't see it
[05:09] <onyx> and it says I have "held packages"
[05:09] <onyx> I tried all commands to fix that
[05:09] <onyx> doesn't seem to work
 That's the sort of issue
[05:10] <onyx> I tried -f install, install -f all those commands don't fix the problem
 Try using the following: … sudo apt-mark unhold <package>
[05:10] <onyx> I tried it says directory not found
[05:10] <onyx> or doesn't exist
 You need to replace the package with its name
 if it is not installed, the issue is different
[05:11] <onyx> how do I find out if it's installed?
 btw. what is the irc link for this group?
 did you install that package
 ah, it is #lubuntu
[05:12] <onyx> I think I got the plugin through another way
[05:12] <onyx> because the jgeboski didn't work
[05:13] <onyx> yeah this is lubuntu
 I'm now connected through IRC as rs2009
 see me there
[05:14] <onyx> k
[05:16] <onyx> I messeged you
[05:18] <onyx> but it's been a long time having this problem I thought I could ignore it but now it won't let me install or upgrade certain programs/packages
[10:18] <akem> I upgraded to 20.04, i hope the freezing will be gone :X
[10:19] <akem> I think it's an intel graphic driver bug. I see the kernel was upgraded of course.
[12:20] <Guest31> hi there :)

[12:22] <guiverc> 19.04 is EOL, once a release goes EOL it's repo is moved to old-releases.ubuntu.com so errors are to be epxected Guest31
[12:22] <Guest31> guest31: Haha
[12:22] <guiverc> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades
[12:23] <Guest31> Thats a genius approach ^^
[12:23] <Guest31> Thanks a lot
[12:23] <guiverc> sorry you saw that, my apology.. old-releases does not have country mirrors.. so de. needs to be removed
[12:23] <Guest31> I had another mirror before
[12:24] <Guest31> Why not simply put a file onto the EOL mirror that tells you, what is the issue and how to solve it?
[12:24] <guiverc> change //de.old-releases.. to //old-releases..
[12:24] <Guest31> This was before
[12:24] <Guest31> I changed it in an attempt to solve it
[12:24] <Guest31> It was the same error before
[12:24] <guiverc> https://lubuntu.me/lubuntu-19-04-end-of-life-and-current-support-statuses/  was our notice on disco/19.04
[12:25] <Guest31> I think I will just reinstall
[12:25] <Guest31> And I mean, to put something in the console at least.
[12:25] <Guest31> Or some GUI box that says: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades
[12:25] <guiverc> the only error I see is the de. at the start of the URL, there are no country codes for old-releases
[12:27] <Guest31> I used the Software Sources GUI to change from "Main Server" to "Server for Deutschland"
[12:27] <Guest31> When I change now back, it stays the same, for some reason.
[12:27] <Guest31> Can you tell me, how to change back via command line? which file is this? :)
[12:27] <guiverc> Upgrade before the release goes EOL, there is no set period for the move to old-releases; 17.04 moved the following day, but some releases stay there for ages (eg. 17.10)
[12:28] <ShalokShalom> But why not simply leaving a notice on the server?
[12:28] <guiverc> I'd suggest making the changes via terminal editor (b/c the release is EOL; I'm not sure GUI can cope with that)
[12:28] <ShalokShalom> OK, thanks
[12:29] <guiverc> the move is only documented to occur AFTER reaching EOL (ie. next day as in 17.04 I mentioned, or months later like 17.10.. still can occur)
[12:29] <ShalokShalom> Can you rephrase this?
[12:30] <ShalokShalom> So you mean, I am supposed to see a notice?
[12:30] <ShalokShalom> I will reinstall the system.
[12:30] <guiverc> Ubuntu 19.04 was the 2019-April release... even if you miss the notice, April+9 months life = Jan or 2020-Jan EOL... 3 years for LTS releases, 9 months for non-LTS
[12:31] <ShalokShalom> Yeah, thats nice
[12:31] <ShalokShalom> I am not complaining about the short support cycle
[12:32] <ShalokShalom> I am complaining about a small text file, that is some kb huge, is ommited so we have to look in the internet for some solution, for a thing that can easily be automated.
[12:32] <guiverc> (3 years is b/c Lubuntu is a flavor, applies to all, Ubuntu server/desktop have 5 years, flavors have 3)
[12:32] <ShalokShalom> I think this is one of the things usually does happen to be handled by distros
[12:33] <ShalokShalom> Yeah, I know that.
[12:33] <ShalokShalom> I just come from another distro, so i am not used to the commons here. :)
[12:34] <guiverc> usually the move from archive to old-releases occurs the next month (so forgetting what day released usually isn't an issue (it's always a Thursday anyway) but 17.04 was an early exception to usual behavior
[12:34] <ShalokShalom> Yeah, thanks a lot dear
[12:35] <ShalokShalom> This all is unrelated to what I type :)
[12:35] <ShalokShalom> Thanks a lot
[12:35] <guiverc> Thursday being the date of release  (UST/UTC time anyway)
[16:14] <Bombo> hi is there a lubuntu version supporting the rtl8821c wifi chip? i tried the latest lubuntu-19.10-desktop-amd64.iso but i get no wifi
[17:49] <bzb> using lubuntu20.04 and screen brightness and blanking not working properly. I create the following report  but don't know if it is the right place. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xscreensaver/+bug/1875787
[17:50] <bzb> any direction appreciated
[19:44] <nino46> i need help
[20:23] <onyx> hey I'm back can someone help me with my held packages and directory which is non-existant?
[20:24] <onyx> N: Ignoring file 'jgeboski.list”' in directory '/etc/apt/sources.list.d/' as it has an invalid filename extension
[20:24] <onyx> my error message when I try to update
[20:26] <wxl> it's not an error, but a warning
[20:26] <onyx> is there a way to fix it?
[20:26] <wxl> it won't affect your ability to install packages all your other sources
[20:27] <onyx> ah
[20:27] <wxl> also, yes, you can correct the name
[20:27] <wxl> your clue: you have an extra character
[20:27] <onyx> when I tried it says directory doesn't exist
[20:28] <onyx> is it a quotation mark?
[20:28] <wxl> yep
[20:30] <onyx> ah I just caught that lol
[20:39] <onyx> -a
[20:39] <onyx> woops ignore that
[20:39] <onyx> I'm running off like 3 hours of sleep lol
[20:40] <wxl> that might be the other problem XD
[20:41] <onyx> yeah I haven't been sleeping well in months.. horrible living conditions
[21:24] <bzb> Installed lubuntu20.04 on laptop. when screen blanking is on the display is still bright while the image is blank. Is this normal?
[21:41] <Deano59> not sure if this is a bug or not but.. I used the mini.iso (the legacy one) advanced options, expert command line install.... installed Lubuntu with "apt install lubuntu-desktop --no-install-recommends" and network manager wasn't giving any info on my device. I had to edit netplan and configure it to use network manager. just thought I'd say1 :)
[21:47] <bzb> any comment on my issue? Anyone?
[22:20] <bzb> any comment on my issue? Anyone?
[22:57] <kc2bez> bzb: I haven't experienced that myself. When I adjust the power management settings to turn my display off it does that. You may want to start a post on the forum https://discourse.lubuntu.me rather than idle here in IRC waiting.
[22:58] <kc2bez> It could be a specific hardware type issue. Your issue may get more visibility over there.
[23:01] <bzb> kc2bez: thanks
[23:18] <Endux> anyone there
[23:18] <Endux> hi
[23:19] <Endux> i cant hear any audio can someone help me
[23:29] <guiverc> Endux, what system?
[23:29] <Endux> what do you mean
[23:29] <guiverc> what OS/release are you using?
[23:30] <Endux> lubuntu 20.04
[23:31] <guiverc> Is your sound card recognized?  (`sudo lshw -C sound` will list hardware of class=sound devices, the driver= bit tells you kernel.module/driver in use)
[23:32] <Endux> it says *-multimedia
[23:32] <Endux>        description: Audio device
[23:32] <Endux>        product: NM10/ICH7 Family High Definition Audio Controller
[23:32] <Endux>        vendor: Intel Corporation
[23:32] <Endux>        physical id: 1b
[23:32] <Endux>        bus info: pci@0000:00:1b.0
[23:32] <Endux>        version: 02
[23:32] <guiverc> !pastebinit
[23:33] <guiverc> ps: you'll have to wait till flood.ban has been lifted
[23:33] <Endux> ?
[23:34] <Endux> what do you mean
[23:34] <guiverc> posts should be single line, you flooded many lines so you were silenced & your detail dropped (not shown); use a pastebin  (`| pastebinit` for example
[23:35] <Endux> sry
[23:35] <Endux> you mean pastebin website
[23:36] <guiverc> if you add a `|pastebinit` to the end of a command, the output will be re-directed to paste.ubuntu.com
[23:36] <Endux> https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/nF4PCF3GSq/
[23:38] <guiverc> Yep your card is recognized, the snd_hda_intel is similiar to my box, next I'd look in `pavucontrol` (pulse audio volume control)
[23:39] <Endux> what should i do now
[23:40] <guiverc> I'd check the last "Configuration" tab to see if a profile is selected, maybe switch it to off, then back to whatever it is (or play & return if no difference).   Next the "Output Devices" that Port looks valid etc.
[23:41] <Endux> it says analog stereo duplex
[23:41] <guiverc> mine is set to "Analogue Stereo Output"
[23:41] <guiverc> but I get sound on duplex as well
[23:42] <guiverc> With the Output.Devices tab, ensure you don't have it muted..
[23:43] <Endux> i dont think its muted
[23:46] <Endux> are you there
[23:47] <guiverc> I usually 'play' with settings, if they make no difference i return them back to what it was... I'm looking up online for issues with hardware like yours, most appear old (some blacklists done but for older releases I'm not sure apply, what brand box?
[23:48] <Endux> is there a sound test in volume control
[23:50] <guiverc> yes I think (or there was).. I don't see it, I have music playing so can see the beat shown in "Playback", "Output Devices" etc.
[23:55] <guiverc> if it's a laptop, they can have unique features that 'silence' sound  (like airplane mode & wifi).. Other users have noted that some brands 'mute' sound on certain key combinations (I've noted that myself, usually mis-key & fix in pauvucontrol)
[23:56] <Endux> its a netbook
[23:57] <Endux> also its detecting sound but i cant hear it
[23:57] <guiverc> If you don't get any more advice here (I'm empty sorry) you can also use #ubuntu (Lubuntu is an official flavor so you'll be on-topic)
[23:57] <guiverc> if it's showing sound in pavucontrol but you can't hear it, I'd look most in Ouptut Devices (try changing port etc)
[23:59] <guiverc> also Playback tab too (where you can mute certain applications & not others)
[23:59] <guiverc> though when I mute my music player, the beat/volume-level disappears..
