| tripelb | I've got a problem. 20.04 it just slows down. I did top and it seems like there's something called the Plex server. I'd like to find out where it is and uninstall it. Can you help me.? | 01:49 |
| tripelb | Oh and it runs as root | 01:50 |
| sarnold | tripelb: check snap list | 01:50 |
| tripelb | How do I check a snap list? Plus I remove snap and added flat pack in the opposite order. | 01:51 |
| tripelb | I am looking in the chrome extensions now | 01:51 |
| tripelb | Not a chrome ext. | 01:51 |
| tripelb | I googled how to see my snap extensions and it gave me a DP kg for how to see all installed programs which didn't work | 01:55 |
| tripelb | Wouldn't it show when I search for programs | 01:56 |
| tripelb | I've got other things going on. I can't get the display back to single screen. I was using two monitors for a while and now I don't want to do it today | 01:56 |
| tripelb | When I open settings it just doesn't show on my laptop screen | 01:56 |
| tripelb | It appears in the dock and then a number one appears on the left but I don't have a way to change it | 01:57 |
| tripelb | Sorry I don't have a big sophisticated Linux problem but I would love help | 01:58 |
| tripelb | This is what happened yesterday after I went to settings The whole computer locks up. Yesterday about every 30 seconds the mouse would move 2 in and that was the best I could do | 01:59 |
| tripelb | Well I need to reboot anyway ... because I installed the strain IRC client from flat pack. I don't find hex chat convenient. It's somewhat like MIRC 20 years ago | 02:00 |

| bindi | it certainly shouldn't run as root, if it was the real deal | 02:02 |
| tripelb | Understood. | 02:03 |
| tripelb | I got something bad from Linux?. I think I clicked on something That said Plex server. I thought I would try it. | 02:03 |
| bindi | you clicked what exactly? | 02:04 |
| tripelb | I guess I can reinstall 20.04 if I need to but all those extra things I add take a while like a day of my time. | 02:04 |
| tripelb | I don't remember exactly what I clicked on or I'd be reporting it in a more concise manner. | 02:04 |
| tripelb | It probably was a couple weeks ago | 02:04 |
| bindi | browser history? | 02:04 |
| tripelb | I could look in my browser history. I probably have about 5,000 things in it in 2 weeks. | 02:05 |
| bindi | you can search in it for plex | 02:05 |
| tripelb | Ah ha, but of course. Will do. Thanks bindi. | 02:05 |
| tripelb | This is just a b****. I could not drag a picture from my desktop to a file's window onto the icon for the folder pictures, I had to have two file windows/tabs and drag it from one to another. (I see this as a bug) | 02:08 |

| Camtist | Then went onto the orange and purple background and the window with options | 03:09 |
| guiverc | if it's a HDD/ssd health issue, I'd check SMART health (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Smartmontools) from the 'live' session (try ubuntu) if desktop; gnome-disks & GUI provide easier detail than `smartctl` from CLI (command line) | 03:10 |

| poutine | Using the instructions here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/BuildYourOwnKernel 2 questions 1) I am using Ubuntu Bionic (18.04.04 LTS), but kernel.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ubuntu-bionic is 4.x and my kernel version is 5.x, I see bionic-signed, but I am not doing a signed build, what should I use to check out from git here? 2) How do I take advantage of a 16 core CPU here since it's not using make-kpkg/make | 06:23 |
| TJ- | poutine: 5.x is from the next release, so you'd need the ubuntu-eoan git repo (is that the 5.x !? ) | 06:25 |
| poutine | TJ-: I am using a fairly default configuration and have 5.3.0-51 | 06:25 |
| poutine | I guess I somehow unknowingly got into HWE, will read up more on that | 06:27 |

| NickShades | I was under the impression that Marai was a substitution of MySQL | 06:32 |
| TJ- | NickShades: no you don't - MariaDB was the fork of MySQL when Oracle bought MySQL | 06:32 |
| NickShades | interesting. | 06:33 |
| TJ- | NickShades: MariaDB is seen as the truly open and unfettered successor to MySQL due to Oracle's business practices and tentacles | 06:33 |

| NickShades | I'll look into it maybe some other time. I was hoping it was going to be a bit easier than this. I feel like it might be an error within the Ubuntu Cinammon Remix distro which I am using. | 06:49 |

| kvndy | Hello again. It turns out quitting all apps using audio, unplugging headphones, restarting alsa, starting VLC and playing a video, and after that finally inserting headphone jack is what restores audio. It is needed every time audio stops. in VLC or on a web page. The only way I can restore audio is by using VLC, no other audio source works from early investigation. | 06:53 |
| TJ- | NickShades: sounds likely | 07:06 |

| etronik | I'm finding latest libreoffice 6.4.4 very buggy, how do I downgrade to 6.3 stable ? | 14:10 |
| oerheks | etronik, interesting .. 6.4.4. is not from our repos, right? | 14:11 |
| etronik | err I'm not sure, how do I figure that one out ? | 14:11 |
| oerheks | oh, launchpad shows that https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice | 14:11 |
| oerheks | and you know how you installed it from a 3rd party source, maybe direct download? | 14:12 |
| oerheks | i think remove LO, and install it from softwarecenter | 14:12 |
| etronik | ok might try that one | 14:12 |
| etronik | which version is on launchpad ? | 14:12 |
| etronik | 6.4.3 ? is that it ? | 14:13 |
| oerheks | without proper info what ubuntu version, dunno | 14:13 |
| etronik | I'm on 18.04 | 14:13 |
| etronik | don't recall the name on this 18.04 release | 14:14 |
| oerheks | 6.0.7 | 14:15 |
| lotuspsychje | maybe he installed the snap oerheks | 14:16 |
| oerheks | oh right.. | 14:17 |
| oerheks | https://snapcraft.io/libreoffice | 14:17 |
| etronik | lotuspsychje, dou don't mean me installing the snap right ? | 14:17 |
| etronik | lotuspsychje, you don't mean me installing the snap right ? | 14:17 |
| lotuspsychje | etronik: no, what i meant is you perhaps installed the snap and found it buggy? | 14:17 |
| etronik | nope ! | 14:18 |
| lotuspsychje | oh ok, then follow oerheks advice further then | 14:18 |
| etronik | just either the regular .deb downloaded from LO site or... software center | 14:18 |
| etronik | ok,what's the name of the 18.04 release pls ? just to determine which version would be installed | 14:19 |
| oerheks | 6.0.7 .. easy to spot | 14:19 |
| oerheks | really, if someone asks for the name, you clearly did not give it a search | 14:19 |
| etronik | yeah, didn't search because it might on the tip of the tongue for everyone out here | 14:20 |
| etronik | ok | 14:21 |
| etronik | bionic | 14:21 |
| etronik | the strange thing is 6.0.6 is not even mentioned in the LO download page... from 6.0 to 6.3 (latest stable) - that's old... | 14:23 |
| etronik | not sure I want to got that far back :-) | 14:24 |
| etronik | so... maybe I'll remove current and install .deb for latest stable from LO site | 14:24 |

| sharpertool | I've never been able to get vnc setup properly on my Ubuntu 20.04 install. Most references I've found include 'vncconfig -iconic &' as part fo the setup, but my system does not have vncconfig | 15:23 |
| sharpertool | and it isn't an apt-get install either | 15:24 |
| johnfg | sharpertool: what vnc are you using? remmina works great here. | 15:25 |
| sharpertool | I've tried them all. | 15:25 |
| sharpertool | I cannot figure out what remmina is | 15:25 |
| sharpertool | to be frank | 15:25 |
| sharpertool | I want to vnc INTO Ubuntu from a Mac | 15:25 |
| stevecam | There are a lot of very general questions in askubuntu that you would expect from a windows forum, vaguelyevolution is that blunt enough? | 15:26 |
| sharpertool | is remmina a vnc server? The website is really not clear on this, IMO | 15:26 |
| johnfg | sharpertool: Have you got vpn set up? | 15:26 |
| sharpertool | I'm going to say no. | 15:26 |
| stevecam | remina is a client | 15:26 |
| sharpertool | My Ubuntu desktop is sitting next to my Mac, so it's a local network. | 15:26 |
| sharpertool | Oh, to be clear, - I have VNC working, in some regards. I can vnc into the main desktop, which is served by vino-server | 15:27 |
| sharpertool | I've been using this for a while but it has one issue -- the 'resolution' is fixed by what screens I have attached. | 15:27 |
| johnfg | sharpertool: perhaps you can just ssh from the mac to ubuntu. | 15:27 |
| sharpertool | I have 6 monitors here. 4 on my mac, and 2 for Ubuntu, that are really JUST to set the geometry | 15:27 |
| stevecam | i am a little confused, why is it unclear about remmina and it being a client | 15:28 |
| sharpertool | @johnfg - I do that all the time | 15:28 |
| sharpertool | But, I have apps that launch guis.. | 15:28 |
| sharpertool | I am doing hardware engineering, so using Quartus, Platform Designer.. these are Java apps with Guis | 15:28 |
| akem | sharpertool, Just run x11vnc on Ubuntu X session, something like: x11vnc -speeds lan -scale 0.8 -passwd eatmyshort -noxdamage -verbose -noxrecord | 15:28 |
| akem | And: vncviewer <IP> on your Mac. | 15:28 |
| sharpertool | I've tried every which way to make that work. I can launch a vncserver, using tightvnc, and 've tried others. | 15:29 |
| sharpertool | But, when I connect from Mac using "VNC Viewer", I get a blank desktop, with an ugly background. | 15:29 |
| sharpertool | I can't even get the background to be grey. | 15:29 |
| akem | sharpertool, Do you use Wayland? | 15:29 |
| sharpertool | I've hacked on ~/.vnc/xstartup till I can't stand it... tried every combination I can conceive of.. | 15:30 |
| sharpertool | sorry @akem -- what is Wayland? | 15:30 |
| akem | sharpertool, The replacement of X org for display. | 15:30 |
| sharpertool | I do not know. I did not intentionally install it | 15:31 |
| akem | You can select Xorg or Wayland at login screen usually. | 15:31 |
| akem | Clicking the little gear icon or the Ubuntu logo i don't remember exactly. | 15:31 |
| ducasse | sharpertool: which de are you using? try one that doesn't use 3d accel | 15:31 |
| stevecam | sharpertool, you arent a hardware engineerer | 15:34 |
| sharpertool | I logged out of the Ubuntu. I do not see any 'Wayland" option. There are options in upper right corner, just bluetooth, etc. On lowr right there is settings gear, and there are a handful of options there, I'm using "Ubuntu". There are also XFce Session, Gnome + Remmina Kiost, and more | 15:34 |
| sharpertool | But no "Wayland" | 15:34 |
| sharpertool | @stevecam - I'm pretty sure I am, Last time I checked. | 15:35 |
| stevecam | sharpertool, is there an Xorg or X option | 15:35 |
| sharpertool | no | 15:35 |
| stevecam | im not arguing the point, i can help you, but this lying is just silly | 15:35 |
| sharpertool | Why are you certain I am not? What information leads you to this conclusion. | 15:36 |
| sharpertool | -- it isn't relevant to my vnc session isssues though. | 15:36 |
| ace_me | sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade crashed when I answered D to: show the differences between the versions for Configuration file '/etc/mysql/conf.d/mysql.cnf' | 15:37 |
| ace_me | anyone can please tell me how to kill update manager ? kill -9 is saying no such process | 15:38 |
| ducasse | sharpertool: try the xfce session and turn off the compositor in the settings | 15:38 |
| ace_me | id of process was taken with ps -aux  grep UpdateManager | 15:38 |
| sharpertool | Let me try that | 15:38 |
| stevecam | just stop, please, i am not getting in to it, you could see if x was running, are you logged in? | 15:38 |
| ducasse | if he's using xfce he's definitely on x11 | 15:39 |
| stevecam | 'ps -A|grerp Xorg' | 15:39 |
| sharpertool | @ducasse - that option did not want to start. I then noticed "Gnome on Xorg" -- which was mentioned already. I launched that. | 15:40 |
| ducasse | gnome uses 3d accel | 15:40 |
| stevecam | can you log in to another VNC server that isn't a Mac | 15:41 |
| sharpertool | @stevecam - I am logging into Ubunto from the mac, | 15:42 |
| vaguelyevolution | johnfq: it should, did you put the user-unit in ~/.config/systemd/user ? | 15:42 |
| ace_me | anyone can tell me how to kill UpdateManager which seems to be stucked on my machine ? | 15:42 |
| stevecam | so Ubuntu is giving you the blank screen? | 15:43 |
| sharpertool | To be clear, my problem is not the main login screen, that is fine. I'm able to login on the attached monitors, KB/Mouse fine. I can then VNC into that login session fine. | 15:43 |
| stevecam | On your Mac, you are having trouble logging in to Ubuntu and all you can see is a blank screen? | 15:43 |
| bumblefuzz | any reason why I can't choose a resolution higher than 1360 x 768? | 15:43 |
| bumblefuzz | fresh ubuntu install | 15:43 |
| sharpertool | What I cannot do is launch a vncserver on day port 5901 or 5901 and get a new session there. When I connect, I get a vnc window, but it won't start any session manager, can't open apps, etc. | 15:44 |
| sharpertool | I hope that is clear? | 15:44 |
| stevecam | What session manager are you trying to use? | 15:45 |
| sharpertool | I've tried Gnome, xfce4, kde. -- but I think that is not the session manager. | 15:47 |
| sharpertool | sorry, I get a big confused on those poinrs. what is what in the stack. I am trying to use `startxfce4 &` -- is that the session manager? | 15:48 |
| stevecam | that is the window manager | 15:49 |
| sharpertool | Well, this is where I am confused, and not experienced enough about these details | 15:50 |
| sharpertool | Previously I did ps -A | Grep Xorg, and there are 2 Xorg processes | 15:50 |
| stevecam | It sounds like what you need is an X server that is also running as a VNC server, am I correct? | 15:50 |
| sharpertool | To be honest, I'd go headless on the Ubuntu system if I could figure that out.. | 15:53 |
| sharpertool | I started with what worked. I could vnc into the vino-server, which serves my login session. The only problem is that the screen size doesn't match my Mac screens. | 15:53 |
| sharpertool | I have been using that for a while and it's been great. | 15:54 |
| stevecam | Have you considered using x2go? I know that it doesn't solve your problem | 15:55 |
| sharpertool | A couple of days ago, I went into install some Nvidia drivers, and setup Cuda. after doing that, I noticed my "vnc" session was acting odd. when I type in a terminal, there is lag, and the cursor lags, and editing the command line witih vi is really a pain.... almost unusable. So, I've gone back to looking at these other alternatives. | 15:55 |
| sharpertool | If I use the attached screens and mouse, the terminal is snappy as expected, so I've narrowed it down to the vino-server somehow. | 15:56 |
| sharpertool | I don't know what x2go is. | 15:56 |
| sharpertool | Uh -- okay, looked it up.. x2go actually looks to be exactly what I want, at a quick glance. | 15:58 |
| sharpertool | I just want to fully use my Ubuntu, with gui apps as needed, but from my Mac. Mostly cause My mac has a really big LG Ultrawide montior... and 3 other monitors around it. | 15:58 |
| stevecam | It is not going to help with your GPU trouble, but will deal with some of the 2D stuff real well, and you can use your Mac to manage your windows also so it appears as if they are running on your Mac | 15:59 |
| sharpertool | The GPU is not my real issue at this time. | 16:02 |
| stevecam | I use mate for mine, KDE and Gnome will not work, the problem with VNC might be something to do with being headless, I have to use dummy HDMI adapters for my PC to do anything like that, you could have a bit of luck with fake EDID profiles | 16:02 |
| sharpertool | I went old school. I had 2 monitors available, so I just connected them. I'm sitting surrounded by 8 screens to be honest. | 16:05 |
| sharpertool | So, my Ubuntu isn't actually headless... the EDID would be better, I could avoid the monitors. | 16:06 |
| sharpertool | But, I've been trying to setup "additional" vncserver sessions so that I could connect multiple times, and possible resolve this issue with the keyboard lag. | 16:06 |
| sharpertool | The keyboard lag is the thing that is just *CRUSHING* my productivity.. | 16:07 |
| stevecam | You probably want to stay away from official nVidia drivers, they have ways of disabling features like these intentionally, it's more common with their Windows drivers | 16:09 |
| sharpertool | yes, I learned that too late. | 16:10 |
| sharpertool | I do not know what driver was being used when I did the fresh install.. but I'd like to just go back to that and uninstall the nvidia stuff completely. | 16:12 |
| sharpertool | By the way -- a huge "thank you" for all of the assistance from @stevecam, @ducase and a couple of others that offered some advice. | 16:22 |
| donofrio | sharpertool, I found that w10 drivers do better video than linux (for multihead uses - also forced to use linux at work and this is all driven by one corp w10 notebook) tinyurl.com/donofriodownstairsoffice2020 | 16:27 |

| EriC^^ | gg_my_man: regarding what? | 19:47 |
| gg_my_man | Regarding a Wifi driver :(( I am depressed about it | 19:48 |
| gg_my_man | The thing is that I use a distribution different to Ubuntu(I know, rant on me, treat me like sh*t because I come here). I saw that Ubuntu 20.04 is handling the driver out of the box and works very well. I just want instruction on how to make it work on my distribution. | 19:49 |
| Kam | vaguelyevolution I get the dev error again and now some 'ata3.00 exception Emask 0x10 SAct 0x80ff001f' | 19:50 |
| gg_my_man | I have a RTL8723DE chip. I installed the rtw88 branch of lwfinger. I use Solus linux. The Wifi works with no problem but I simply cannot use both Wifi and bluetooth without having to sacrifice one for the sake of the other. I talked to the devs of Solus and they will not help me because they do not modify the kernel at all | 19:53 |

| === TheWild1 is now known as TheWild | ||
| TheWild | I can't remove pdftk because snapd is endlessly stuck in "Waiting for conflicting change in progress..." | 20:08 |
| TheWild | how I am supposed to fix that | 20:09 |
| coconut | What setting should i check when anything my uhd screen is too small to read? | 20:13 |
| coconut | *on | 20:14 |
| sarnold | TheWild: try snap abort | 20:14 |
| TheWild | yup, worked. Thank you sarnold | 20:15 |
| sarnold | nice | 20:15 |
| rfm | coconut, you want to set up scaling. I use xubuntu (xfce) and don't know where to find the option in ubuntu (gnome) but I found a article that looks reasonable:https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2020/04/ubuntu-20-04-fractional-scaling-support-setting | 20:16 |
| coconut | rfm, using xubuntu too here (20.04) | 20:16 |
| rfm | coconut, ok then! settings>appearance>fonts>custom DPI, I use 151 but you may want to play around to find a size you like | 20:18 |
| coconut | thank you rfm! | 20:19 |
| rfm | coconut, I also right click on the top bar, panel>panel preferences, set row size (pixels) up | 20:19 |
| rfm | coconut, oh I also run up the default font size in setttings>appearance>fonts | 20:20 |
| coconut | oh... great, will boot again to check this out. :) | 20:21 |
| cybercrypto | Hey there, got an old hardware with 64bit support, but no UEFI boot (only legacy). Does Ubuntu 20.04 default desktop installation supports ZFS with no UEFI-boot? | 20:31 |
| coconut | rfm, can i also make the window borders thicker so i can change size of window borders more easier? | 20:34 |
| EriC^^ | cybercrypto: i'd guess so, not 100% sure though | 20:39 |
| cybercrypto | EriC^^: I tried default-safe graphs +zfs-root, and it failed trying to mount /boot/efi and got the busybox prompt. I wondering where I can find detailed info about current zol on ubuntu, so I can troubleshoot. | 20:44 |
| tripelb | I found a bug in 20.04 and expressed it as a problem here and no one answers. This is my third day expressing it. If I have two displays and I want to change it back to one display, The setting window to fix that appears in the secondary display. If I don't have a secondary display connected then I have no access to that setting. This is a very ver | 20:54 |
| tripelb | y wrong thing. | 20:54 |
| tripelb | I'm looking at LaunchPad and I'm trying to figure out how to report a bug. Help help. | 21:00 |
| tripelb | I'm looking at bugs.launchpad.net | 21:01 |
| leftyfb | tripelb: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs | 21:02 |
| leftyfb | !bug | tripelb | 21:02 |
| ubottu | tripelb: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its official !flavors, please report it using the command « ubuntu-bug <package> » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs. | 21:02 |
| tripelb | That's good leftyfb It's really weird that in searching three times with slightly different terms I could not find that. I am now sending an email to new at bugs.Launchpad.net | 21:03 |
| leftyfb | tripelb: I searched "launchpad file a bug" on google and it was the first result | 21:04 |
| tripelb | The_LoudSpeakere bug is what I described above but I don't know how to search for it without getting all kinds of unrelated things. It's an Ubuntu social engineering error that how to report a bug does not come up in the first 10 on the search results. By the time I quit looking search results They didn't look relevant | 21:04 |
| tripelb | I finally searched on LaunchPad report a bug and got the email. | 21:04 |
| tripelb | It took me quite a while of searching to find LaunchPad and not search for just Ubuntu report a bug | 21:04 |
| tripelb | Reported. | 21:09 |
| blackhawk101 | hello | 21:14 |

| cgi | blackhawk101, snap install xxx | 21:17 |
| blackhawk101 | ok thanks cgi | 21:17 |
| michagogo | Hm | 21:17 |
| michagogo | Is there any reason `do-release-upgrade` would fail to connect and get meta-release? | 21:18 |
| michagogo | I can curl that exact url without a problem | 21:18 |
| michagogo | http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/fBwQnZfjh2/ | 21:19 |
| sarnold | michagogo: it'll probably respect HTTP_PROXY or http_proxy or similar environment variables -- do you have one of those set? | 21:20 |
| michagogo | Not afaik | 21:20 |
| michagogo | And not according to `https://ubuntu.com/blog/how-to-upgrade-from-ubuntu-18-04-lts-to-20-04-lts-today` | 21:20 |
| michagogo | er | 21:20 |
| michagogo | Sorry, copy-paste isn't set up on this vm | 21:21 |
| michagogo | And not according to `env | grep -i proxy` | 21:21 |
| sarnold | dang | 21:21 |
| michagogo | Like, curl is working fine http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/GDK4SybBMW | 21:22 |
| michagogo | Oh, it's python | 21:26 |
| michagogo | Let's see what pdb can show me | 21:26 |
| michagogo | Aha! | 21:27 |
| michagogo | There we go | 21:27 |
| michagogo | I have apt-cacher-ng | 21:28 |
| michagogo | And do-release-upgrade looks at apt config for proxies | 21:28 |
| michagogo | But it seems the meta-release file isn't allowed through there | 21:28 |
| sarnold | michagogo: aha! | 21:29 |
| sarnold | michagogo: this feels worth a bug report or two :) | 21:29 |
| michagogo | Hmmmmm | 21:29 |
| michagogo | I wonder | 21:30 |
| rfm | michagogo, maybe it's fetching it with https? proxying https doesn't work (at least I naver got it to) | 21:31 |
| michagogo | I mean, one could argue that meta-release isn't part of the apt repository and so shouldn't use apt | 21:31 |
| michagogo | 's proxy settings | 21:31 |
| michagogo | Hm, interesting | 21:32 |
| rfm | michagogo, I set 'Acquire::https::Prioxy: "DIRECT"; ' a while ago for some reason, maybe this was it | 21:33 |
| michagogo | Question is whether that solves this specifically | 21:34 |
| michagogo | Another question is whether apt-cacher Just Works as a proxy for whatever | 21:35 |
| michagogo | (i.e. doesn't only let apt traffic through) | 21:35 |
| === bynarie_ is now known as bynarie | ||
| michagogo | So setting it to direct would indeed solve the issue | 21:37 |
| michagogo | Either way | 21:37 |
| michagogo | But that means it wouldn't be an effective test to narrow down the issue | 21:37 |
| michagogo | Hm, looks like the upgrade wants to uninstall python | 21:38 |
| michagogo | And replace it with python2 | 21:38 |
| michagogo | And also remove python-pip, but without replacing it? | 21:38 |
| Tiders | I'm having a problem on bionic version of ubuntu. I have a system image that already has php 7.3 included however it is missing php-redis extension. I just need to add that extension. To do this I initially just tried running apt install php-redis but this installed all of php7.2 as well as php-redis, this wasn't what I wanted. Then I tried adding ppa:ondrej/php and installing php7.3-redis. This installed all of php7.4, and | 22:07 |
| Tiders | upated my system php to that, that was also not what I wanted. Does anyone have any suggestions? | 22:07 |
| sarnold | Tiders: you might have some luck with https://github.com/oerdnj/deb.sury.org/issues | 22:09 |
| Tiders | Could the problem be because the pre-isntalled php didn't come from the repositories? | 22:10 |
| Tiders | so it thinks I need php installed as a dependency of php-redis? | 22:10 |
| Tiders | (I don't know if that's actually the case or not) | 22:11 |
| sarnold | if you're going to use ondrej's packaging then you're got to use it for EVERYTHING; if his packaging doesn't have the thing you need, then you'll need to ask him to add it | 22:11 |
| sarnold | you can't mix-and-match packages from his repos and the supported ubuntu repo | 22:12 |
| Tiders | The problem isn't that he doesn't have what I need it's that the docker image I"m using has php7.3 included but not php-redis and I've been bashing my head against a wall trying to add the extension | 22:12 |

| SpeedrunnerG55 | hi, my syslog is getting spammed with ``Asimov gnome-shell[2785]: [AppIndicatorSupport-FATAL] unable to lookup icon for discord1_926`` and every time it lags any video playback that is happening at the time | 22:47 |
| SpeedrunnerG55 | - i am running ubuntu 18.04 | 22:47 |
| eelstrebor | why does ubuntu (18.04) auto install a network printer as a local printer that i can't print to? ie deskjet.local | 22:47 |
| Nana | can i get uptime in seconds, minutes or hours, instead of "up 123 days 123 hours 123 minutes? i mean instead, i want it in a single measurement unit | 22:48 |
| Nana | `uptime` doesn't seem to be very helpful with that | 22:48 |

| jakobbg | Hi guys. On FF as root I have a crontab entry script which I need to have run as bash, but whatever I try, /bin/sh is $SHELL! I've tried "#!/usr/bin/env bash" first, I've tried "SHELL=/usr/bin/bash" in cron, I've tried "/usr/bin/bash path/to/script", but still $SHELL is /bin/sh. How can I change shell to run script in root cron? | 22:49 |
| sarnold | Nana: /proc/uptime is in seconds | 22:49 |
| Nana | sarnold what are the two numbers? they're different and pretty far away from each otehr | 22:52 |
| jakobbg | Nana: "The first number is the total number of seconds the system has been up. The second number is how much of that time the machine has spent idle, in seconds. On multi core systems (and some Linux versions) the second number is the sum of the idle time accumulated by each CPU." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uptime | 22:54 |
| sarnold | Nana: the first number is uptime, the second number is the time spent in idle process | 22:54 |
| Nana | thanks! | 22:55 |

| Nana | probably openvpn | 23:11 |
| Nana | you can have clients install the client program and then provide them with one config file with everything embedded inside it | 23:12 |
| Intelo | Nana: hm. they don't need to install or configure anythign or product certs? | 23:13 |
| Nana | they need to install the openvpn client of course, all the certs they need you can embed in the config file you give them | 23:14 |
