[00:10] <alezandro> after upgrading to 20.04, bluetooth keyboard idle timeout is too fast. Worked fine in 19.10. I tried to set IdleTimeout to 0 in /etc/bluetooth/input.conf, and also tried to create a udev rule to prevent the timeout. No luck. Keyboard times out quickly, after 30 secs or so, and then takes time to wake up
[00:11] <alezandro> Any suggestions would be great
[01:02] <logotype> i have a problem

[03:42] <rtnd0g> hi all
[03:42] <rtnd0g> Does anyone here know anything about Virtual Packages and/or Meta Packages in apt-get?
[04:17] <rtnd0g> hi qkall
[04:17] <qkall> hi o.o first time i was greeted here lol :)
[04:17] <rtnd0g> lol.
[04:18] <rtnd0g> well i have selfish reasons. :)
[04:18] <rtnd0g> qkall: do you know anything about Meta Packages and Virtual Packages? I have attempted to research this online, but all I find are vague, confusing, and outright contradictory definitions of those two terms.
[04:18] <rtnd0g> such as:   https://www.queryhome.com/tech/57766/what-are-virtual-packages-in-linux
[04:18] <rtnd0g> and also...
[04:19] <rtnd0g> https://www.linuxtopia.org/online_books/linux_system_administration/debian_linux_guides/debian_linux_reference_guide/ch-system.en_023.html
[04:19] <qkall> sorry my good and polite rtnd0g , i am quite drunk
[04:19] <qkall> additionally i would not be privy to this sober
[04:19] <qkall> :(
[04:19] <qkall> <3
[04:19] <rtnd0g> lol. okay.
[04:20] <rtnd0g> i have asked on every ubuntu and apt related channel i could find.
[04:20] <rtnd0g> even the two links i posted above confuse me and are apparently contradictory to one another.
[04:22] <rtnd0g> Ubuntu was the first website i checked. Debian.org was the second place i checked.
[04:53] <oerheks> virtual packages can point to a source ouside your sourceslist, like chromium > snap, and metapackages is a set of packages together.
[04:54] <oerheks> like ubuntustudio-audio > https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/bionic/arm64/ubuntustudio-audio/0.174

[08:15] <kauebkf> Hello guys
[10:11] <user|17142> hi, i have trouble with my boot on Kubuntu 19.10 (stuck on dark screen with mouse pointer only after launching with  Refind). Simple question : can I use Ubuntu boot repair or do i have to use a kubuntu one ?
[10:57] <user|48249> Hi, VLC is acting weird, wont play videos after it's been used once or twice, and I can't force quit it
[11:23] <BluesKaj> 'Morning all
[11:25] <Gwalenn> hi it's now several times my kubuntu fossa crash surfing on the web. I try to check the  ksystem log but I have only the informations after reboot
[14:16] <viewer|67> kubuntu discover gives this error the packagekit daemon has crashed, also cannot update from konsole
[14:16] <user|6147> hi there
[14:16] <user|6147> im facing ethernet problem
[14:16] <viewer|67> hi
[14:17] <user|6147> how to fix??
[14:17] <BluesKaj> logout and in again to get apt access
[14:18] <user|6147> logout?
[14:18] <user|6147> okay
[14:19] <viewer|67> discover: package kit daemon has crashed.
[14:20] <user|6147> still no internet
[14:21] <BluesKaj> don't use discover, it's buggy, just use the terminal
[14:21] <viewer|67> I tried that and it failed.
[14:21] <viewer|67> sudo apt update failed
[14:24] <viewer|67> E: The repository 'http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu cosmic Release' does not have a Release file.
[14:24] <viewer|67> N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default.
[14:26] <BluesKaj> Cosmic? that's EOL
[14:27] <viewer|67> What's EOL?
[14:27] <BluesKaj> !eol
[14:34] <viewer|67> This seems to be a bit "over my head". I'll check back later.
[19:38] <Ad_Astra> Hey guys, I have a question, hopefully it's not too silly of a question. How do I get an external hard drive to mount at the same point each time the computer restarts? For weeks it was mounted at /media/username/toshiba4tb, but for whatever reason today it refuses to mount there and will only append a number at the end.
[19:38] <Ad_Astra> Using umount and then mounting it under its original mount point isn't working for me. Is there something I should be doing in the fstab?
[19:51] <diogenes_> Ad_Astra, try this: udisksctl mount -b /dev/sdx
[20:01] <Ad_Astra> idk what the deal is... now it's not connecting to the monitor anymore. It's recieving commands via the keyboard because I'm still able to tell it to restart via ctl+alt+t and then typoing out reboot, but this is seriously frustrating.
[20:40] <ad_astra> diogenes_, I ran those instructions and it still mounts in the unintended location.
[20:54] <ad_astra> idk what fixed it, but doing another round of umount, and then sudo mount....yadda yadda has attached the drive to the mount point that it's been for the past few months.
