[00:26] Hi All. Where can I find an alternative to gnome-clocks? It's waaay too much effort and time to get it to work on 20.04 [00:26] I need something with a world clock and alarms. [00:29] delvian: have you ever considered using your iPhone? [00:30] @sarnold AMI [00:30] @sarnold AMI's are region specific, you have to search us-west-2 to find this one. [00:30] tatertots: I have it on my phone, but I'd like it on my PC too :) [00:32] It doesn't seem like a complicated app, I'd expect many alternatives but I can't seem to find any in the repos. [00:34] First, the alarms and timer wasn't making a sound. I eventually got that to work, but now it won't even open at all. [00:34] The GNOME devs just blame the Ubuntu devs for packaging it incorrectly :( [00:34] WesleyTech: I still don't spot the dotnetcore or ami numbers in the ubuntu ec2 ami locator [00:35] Upon further inspection, this AMI might be owned by Amazon, not Canonical... [00:36] sigh [00:36] d'oh [00:43] Ubuntu 5.10 -=- Breezy Badger -=- Cisco Aironet -=- MEIZU M5 Note [00:50] http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/5.10/ [00:57] I have just install ubuntu-mate on a VM, done a 'apt dist-upgrade' and when I go to install a printer driver, I get the error "E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages." ... can anyone help here. [00:58] try sudo apt update && sudo apt install -f [01:00] sarnold, that didn't fix the problem... yesterday I successfully installed the same package on a different VM [01:01] sarnold, the dependacy is "lsb:amd64 (>= 3.2) but it is not installable" [01:01] neildugan: try sudo dpkg --configure -a [01:01] after dist-upgrade, vm rebooted? [01:02] oerheks, hang on a sec [01:04] sarnold, oerheks, a reboot didn't fix the problem [01:05] neildugan: alright, can you pastebin the output of your attempt? [01:05] sarnold, the 'apt install' [01:06] Hi everyone. After upgrading my server to 20.04, every time I log in I see "403 packages can be updated." -- But then when I run `sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade`, I see that "All packages are up to date." (or if there are some updates, I see those). But when I log in, it always says 403 packages to update. Any ideas? [01:06] Where is that 403 number coming from? Is there a different sources.list that it's using, perhaps? [01:07] try sudo apt dist-upgrade [01:07] linelevel, tun apt dist-upgrade, it brings in kernel and stuff [01:07] !distupgrade [01:07] A dist-upgrade will install new dependencies for packages already installed and may remove packages if they are no longer needed. This will not bring you to a new release of Ubuntu, see !upgrade if that is your intention. [01:07] @bparker @oerheks Running `sudo apt dist-upgrade` says "0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded." [01:08] and requires a reboot, see if /var/run/reboot-required exists [01:08] I've restarted the server several times since this problem appeared. [01:08] sarnold, oerheks, the full output of the install is @ https://pastebin.com/Ue2v5FxK [01:08] hmm so your login/motd gives wrong info? [01:09] oerheks: Yes, it seems as such. [01:10] sarnold, oerheks, should I just kill the VM and redo? [01:10] neildugan: how about suto apt install lsb? [01:11] neildugan: hmm... actually, are you sure you made it amd64? check uname -a output [01:13] sarnold, "# uname -a" = "Linux julieVM 5.3.0-59-generic #53~18.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jun 4 14:55:07 UTC 2020 i686 i686 i686 GNU/Linux" [01:13] ah 32 bit [01:13] neildugan: there we go :) [01:14] find the i386 version [01:14] or reinstall amd64 [01:14] that wuld be preferable, sarnold +1 [01:15] I'm a bit worried with that .deb filename that this package hasn't been updated in nine years [01:15] oerheks: Any idea what could cause that? Or how I should go about troubleshooting further? [01:16] sarnold, what value indicates i386? [01:16] lsb > 3.2 suggests the same thing, as lsb was 4.0 in 12.04 days... [01:16] "i686 i686 i686" [01:19] Qemu 0.8.0 -=- Qemu 0.10.0 -=- Qemu 0.12.0 -=- Qemu 0.14.0 -=- Qemu 1.2 [01:19] ok so why does the host which reports "x86_64" create a "i686" VM by default? is this a problem? [01:19] nugroho: so, uh, what's the point of all this? [01:20] neildugan: how did you create it? [01:21] sarnold, hang on a couple of minutes while a create a new one, with slightly different setup. [01:23] sarnold, found the problem ... wrong iso image! [01:24] neildugan: aha, good, then working as intended :) [01:24] :-) === zbenjamin is now known as Guest22262 === zbenjamin_ is now known as zbenjamin [01:25] sarnold, need to download the correct image. Are you going to be arround for a while? [01:25] neildugan: probably another twenty-ish minutes [01:27] linelevel, haven't seen such behaviour before, one could file a bugreport? [01:29] Is this channel only for server support? [01:32] delvian, no, desktop too [01:33] there is a dedicated #ubuntu-server though [01:35] WHA420355-SOC155694-YMH297433-WHA800477-JPL749250-APB800779 [01:36] sarnold, ok, its going to take about an hour for the download, thanks for your help, I should be find now. [01:36] neildugan: oof :) good luck :) [01:37] nugroho, looks like a serial number for windows 3.11 [01:38] I'm looking for an alternative to gnome-clocks. The GNOME devs recommend installing the flatpak to get it to work, but that requires a nearly 1GB download of dependencies just to get the 2MB clock to work, which I don't want to do. [01:42] I've got a system where /etc seems readonly [01:42] Somebody suggested that I use the world clock and alarms on my phone, but that isn't the point. [01:42] how do I fix that? [01:42] I had to remount / as rw [01:43] nugroho: please stop. [01:43] I use the alarms as a timer while I work, so I'd like it on my workstation. [01:43] R0b0t1, run a fsck with live iso ? [01:44] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilesystemTroubleshooting [01:48] delvian, there's a gnome-clocks package in universe for bionic and focal.. [01:49] rfm: The gnome-clocks package doesn't work. That's why I'm looking for an alternative. [01:51] gnome-clocks package from where? [01:51] if this is a gnome plugin, you need to logout/login to let it take effect [01:51] and gnome-tweak-tool gives to options for those plugins [01:52] delvian, just installed it on Xubuntu 30.04, seems to work for me. what problem are you having? [01:52] oerheks: The one from focal-updates. [01:53] oh oke, i am still on 18.04 [01:54] rfm: First the alarms and timers weren't sounding. Then I got that to work, but now it won't launch at all. [01:54] ^30^20, I'm not from the future. [01:54] :) [01:55] that's what i call an early access, rfm ;) [01:56] A search on launchpad says that it's a known bug with no fix. I'm just tired of wasting time on it and I'm trying to find something that works. [01:56] The GNOME devs say that it's they way Canonical compiled it that's causing problems. [03:35] Hi, How using the keyboard in the gui do you get to a normal console login prompt not terminal but the normal login prompt? [03:36] The reason I am asking is I am totally blind and want to use the speakup screen on the console but still want to use orca in the gui as it is not the best command line screen reader. [03:37] Is there a way to do what I want other then shuting down gdm? [03:51] hey with 'mail' is there a way to list READ messages? (it seems to default to only unread messages) [04:08] I manage 20+ machines and 5+ users. What is a good way to add/delete users in a centralized fashion on these machines? [04:24] use a configuration management tool? like saltstack, ansible etc. [04:25] pen and paper. [04:29] pyraindrop: cockpit seems to be a nice managing tool for servers too [04:32] lotuspsychje, looking - i also was looking at sssd - freeipa - cfengine - bastallion... [04:32] !info cockpit [04:32] cockpit (source: cockpit): Web Console for Linux servers. In component universe, is optional. Version 215-1 (focal), package size 17 kB, installed size 62 kB [04:33] lotuspsychje, have you used cockpit? Does it allow ssh key rotation? [04:34] oerheks, that is the best - that is what i do - with keys :) [04:39] anyone uses freeipa here? [04:39] pyraindrop: we dont reall take polls here [04:39] !diccuss [04:39] !discuss [04:39] Want to talk about Ubuntu, but don't have a support question? /join #ubuntu-discuss for non-support Ubuntu discussion, or try #ubuntu-offtopic for general chat.

[06:17] I want to know if 16.04 is still secure, if there are any updates or patches I should know about. [06:18] Can anyone help? [06:20] 16.04 gives 1 year support. i would go 1 lts higher, 18.04 LTS with HWE [06:20] !hwe [06:20] The Ubuntu LTS enablement stacks provide newer kernel and X support for existing LTS releases, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack [06:20] I am on ubuntu 18.04. I had setup ibus as per some tutorials and am able to switch between languages using super+space. However I am struggling to get native letters. I installed Marathi. WHen I switch to Marathi I still get English letters. In LO etc. [06:21] I am using the phonetic keyboard. [06:21] Any ideas as to what I am doing wrong. [06:24] Thanks oerheks - is it possible to upgrade and keep all the installed php extensions, or would I need to install those too? [06:24] depends what extentions, hard to tell. [06:25] yeah, there's one microsoft extension which I'm almost certain I would need to upgrade: mssql [06:26] what if I wanted to apply security patches to 16.04, without upgrading yet, to buy time for research [06:26] I have to go live today and only discovered the version this morning [06:27] I mean, is there an apt command for that? [06:34] found it [06:35] Despite using ubuntu cli for years, this is the first time I've been responsible for upgrading a system!

Custom ubuntu image (16_04_server.img is a x86 boot sector) is available on other machine on network.. Is there a command to deploy the custom image? [09:36] sub526: "sudo dd if=16_04_server.img of=/dev/sdX bs=4M status=progress && sync" where /dev/sdX is the hdd of the machine you want to install it to (not a partition of the disk) [09:38] EriC^^: how to know the hdd(/dev/sdX) name of my machine? [09:38] sub526: usually "sudo parted -ls" shows the disks [09:39] sub526: be sure the disk is of the other machine and not the one you're booted on though, or you'll overwrite your good install [09:39] How do I use `apt` to list all the packages that are installable from a particular repository?

I have tried to preseed a 20.04 install with a openssh-server install as the last stage, but it fails silently. Anyone know why "ubiquity ubiquity/success_command string apt install openssh-server" is the wrong way, and can tell me the correct way? [10:13] I plan to get a wireless headsset that ships with an usb adapter and wonder how to find out if this will work under linux? [10:23] google usually helps [10:23] or the manual [10:23] other than that: buy from a store that allows you to test it [10:23] (and return it if it doesn't work) [10:24] is this one of those fancy virtual 5.1 headphones? [10:30] interested in linux, can you recommend a laptop suitable for ubuntu 20.04?

[12:11] marslander: it doesn't recognize any of those keys unless you specify it so. [12:11] bindsym --release Print exec --no-startup-id maim ~/Pictures/screenshot.png [12:11] thats the command I have in i3 config [12:12] legreffier: ^ [12:14] if I switch 'Print' to 'Pause', the command works with Pause key [12:14] pymagic: What do you want to do for managing tasks? Patching? Package groups in Landscape is probably the default way, otherwise you probably want to look at ansible. [12:15] marslander: are you sure the printscreen key actually send that symbol ? [12:15] Cymew, I just need a few things: Add/delete users. Change sudo. Remove/update ssh keys. [12:15] Cockpit does not look like the right tool for this [12:16] legreffier: yes because this: https://www.reddit.com/r/i3wm/wiki/faq/screenshot_binding [12:16] (for example, here, my printscr key will 'X86-RFkill', unless i press Fn too ) [12:16] how to I use 'xev' to tell me what my Print screen key is called? [12:17] marslander: just launch it from a terminal [12:18] legreffier: it says 0xFF61. Print [12:19] but Print isn't working [12:19] what the hell/ [12:19] please let me know what I can do to fix it [12:21] I also tried 'buindsym 0xff61 ...' [12:22] I also tried 'bindsym 0xff61 ...' [12:23] are you talking about print screen? [12:23] yes [12:24] I'm trying to fix that key. The physical key works fine, it's just that it doesn't want to be mapped using i3 config [12:24] it's driving me nuts [12:25] i3 config is supposed to take this 'bindsym Print exec whatever.command.I.want' [12:27] maybe you can find other ways outside i3 to map the key [12:27] https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Keyboard_shortcuts#Xorg [12:28] ok I'll try [12:30] pymagic: Sounds like you should learn some ansible. You can use cockpit for a lot of things, but you will have to click your way through all the machines. You need to use some proper automation. [12:47] I installed xkeycaps and when I press PrtSc, Del key gets highlighted [12:54] lol [12:54] maybe you're using a different keymap instead of the US english one?

[13:05] alwyn: upgrade from eol versions is highly discouraged [13:05] alwyn: unless you are a payed ESM user? [13:06] lotuspsychje: we are, however I am not sure if we use ESM on these machines specifically [13:06] lotuspsychje: can you elaborate on highly discouraged? It should still be doable right? I'm not skipping a version or anything [13:07] alwyn: well alot of security flaws on eol versions see !usn so we advice to upgrade to the next before your system goes eol [13:08] alwyn: yes its possible to do !eolupgrade but not really reccomended [13:08] Hi! I have mounted an usb over a folder but cant change user owner of these files, how can i do it? With sudo chmod -R /myMontedFolder i couldnt [13:08] lotuspsychje: I agree on your point of security, however that's beyond my question [13:08] !eolupgrade [13:08] End-Of-Life is when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop. Make sure to update Ubuntu before it goes EOL so you get updates promptly for newly-discovered security vulnerabilities. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOL and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more info. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades [13:08] I want to do these because i create a smbd server but i cant add or delete files [13:08] Just read [13:12] I have Firefox set as my default browser, and yet Chrome sees fit to open any HTML files on my disk opened with xdg-open. How do I change this? [13:19] AlexMax: https://itsfoss.com/change-default-applications-ubuntu/ [13:21] so you get firefox from running "xdg-settings get default-web-browser"? [13:22] leftyfb: The defaults in settings are already set. The latter settings don't stick - even when I "Open With" and change it to Firefox, it doesn't stick. [13:22] Velarde: it's not the default browser setting [13:23] The "Open with" setting doesn't stick. I open with Firefox, but it still shows up as Chrome later. [13:24] AlexMax: try editing /usr/share/applications/defaults.list [13:25] AlexMax; of course one way is to remove chrome :) [13:25] That's a silly answer, I need both installed. :) [13:26] Well, not quite silly, because you are quite correct, but silly on Ubuntu's part because I shouldn't have to remove the browser just to remove it as a default. [13:26] Does anyone use MS Teams on Ubuntu? [13:27] It uses so much resources and takes over camera and microphone, is there any way to limit the app? [13:36] leftyfb: That was an enlightening thing to look for. I think I could fix it if I needed to, but I wanted to do a little more research and found out that there is also a mimeapps.list, that is considered the more up to date file to modify. [13:37] So yeah, for your edification, there's a ~/.config/mimeapps.list that contains added associations and defaults [13:38] https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/XDG_MIME_Applications [13:39] Still, i appreciate your suggestion, because without it would've taken me a fair bit longer to get there [13:52] Heeelp~ https://gist.github.com/Kreyren/b58bd8d198dd3f7227f47127c4de69fa === steinbac1 is now known as steinbach [14:03] !ot | kreyren [14:03] kreyren: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions.

I'm open to suggestions. [15:52] AH, I think I have found a solution. [15:52] Hey guys, I am getting an awful lot of screen tering on Ubuntu 20.04. Can anyone help me? GPU: AMD ATI Radeon R2/R3/R4/R5 [15:55] neilh90: same here but with nvidia. i set in nvidia x server settings to "nvidia on-demand" (was nvidia performance mode before). don't know what options you have with ATI. drawback is that 3d apps won't start on my pc with on-demand mode [15:56] hi, father-in-law's desktop just upgraded itself to 20.04, are .desktop files with Type=Link no longer supported? === grumble is now known as rawr [16:13] https://specifications.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/desktop-entry-spec-latest.html#recognized-keys still lists Link at least [16:19] rjb, I fixed tearing with nvidia a few days ago and it seems to be a permanent solution [16:19] are you using the official drivers with the nvidia-settings app? === halvors1 is now known as halvors [16:38] I am having a bad experience at the moment with Ubuntu 20.04 screen lag and cracking issue.

[16:51] Velarde: yes, i have the official recommended drivers installed using the nvidia-settings app [16:55] rjb: then performance should yield less artifacts than on-demand [16:56] Velarde: on-demand is almost perfect with v-sync, but performance mode is awfully tearing here [16:58] !openpgp [17:00] I need to know how to import a PGP pubkey on ubuntu [17:01] gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --import-keys [17:01] IIRC [17:01] ^ [17:02] Don't forget apt update [17:02] openpgp for thunderbird [17:02] Ew [17:10] It seems that https://askubuntu.com/questions/180079/ctrl-c-ctrl-v-not-working-in-different-keyboard-layout is somewhat still an issue in Bionic.

[17:18] hi, i'm missing the application /usr/lib/at-spi-bus-launcher, even if at-spi2-core is installed [17:18] how do is get this program? [17:18] Not me at least. Huge blobs don't go to /home (NAS), and all the rest, there is no point to not go to SSD. Try a complicated make and feel the difference :-p [17:38] evlute2, what release ? 20.04 ? [17:38] yes [17:38] evlute2, ls /usr/libexec/at-spi-bus-launcher [17:40] oh yes, thank you [17:40] ok [18:20] Hey guys, I am having terrible screen tearing on ubuntu 20.04. Can anyone help me with it please? GPU: AMD ATI Radeon R2/R3/R4/R5 === Deano59ONE is now known as Deano59 [18:22] hey all, pretty new here but i was hoping that someone might be able to help troubleshoot some restart/locking issues that i've seen with a new computer. if this isn't the place to look, could someone point me in the right direction? [18:23] neilh90 what have you tried doing? [18:23] paperhawk youre going to need to elaborate on your issue [18:25] paperhawk: don't ask to ask, shoot your question. [18:25] Someone might know, or might not. [18:25] :) [18:26] Right, I'm on Ubuntu 18.04 and I noticed that my screen suddenly decided to lock and then the screen went black. I couldn't do anything until I held down the power button and restarted. Afterwards, I opened up chrome and started scrolling through syslog. Switching between the two was slow and it looks like it logged me out. [18:28] I'm still looking through syslog at the moment but let me know if there's any other information I can provide. [18:29] which desktop environment and display manager are you using? [18:30] I'm using Gnome [18:30] Let me see if I can check the display manager. [18:31] Looks like gdm3? [18:32] Gnome 3.28.2 specifically. [18:33] three, I'm not too sure what I can do atm [18:34] I am new to linux. But I did check the additional drivers part of the upgrade tool. But there is only a driver for the network manager [18:35] the drivers for amd cards are packaged with the linux kernal normally. When does the screen tearring occur [18:36] If I move windows, if I scroll, say on google chrome [18:36] and watching videos [18:36] paperhawk I'm not really sure how to help unless you can provide more info about the situation. Like have you ben able to recreate the problem multiple times to narrow down what could be causing it? [18:36] what kind of monitor are you using? [18:37] oh are you on a laptop [18:37]
