=== pikapika_lunar_a is now known as pikapika
[16:41] <A-Curious-Mouse> can anybody help me with samba? I'm following the official documentation, but it's a bit ambiguous and I just need some clarity on what it actually means.
[16:45] <diogenes_> !samba
[16:45] <ubottu> Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/samba.html
[16:49] <pikapika> Hey diogenes_ have you ever tried bluetooth transfers on ubuntu
[16:49] <diogenes_> pikapika, yep.
[16:49] <pikapika> Does it drop files in some weird directory within .cache instead of in Downloads?
[16:50] <diogenes_> pikapika, blueman drops it in Downloads.
[16:51] <pikapika> Hmm I used the gui of the applet, is that not blueman?
[16:51] <pikapika> ~/.cache/obexd/
[16:51] <pikapika> This is where the file ended up in
[16:52] <pikapika> With 'blueman-applet'
[16:52] <diogenes_> try in the menu bluetooth manager.
[16:52] <pikapika> Menu as in system settings window?
[16:53] <diogenes_> whisker menu.
[16:53] <pikapika> yes thats the one I was talking about
[16:54] <pikapika> diogenes_, doesn't do anything when clicked
[16:55] <diogenes_> maybe exit the applet first.
[16:55] <pikapika> oh
[16:55] <pikapika> good point
[16:56] <A-Curious-Mouse> ahh sorry went afk to try and find answers elsewhere
[16:56] <A-Curious-Mouse> re: samba
[16:56] <pikapika> diogenes_, exit the applet and even did a systemctl restart bluetooth to be sure
[16:56] <A-Curious-Mouse> I have the basics down, I know what it is and why I want to use it etc.
[16:56] <pikapika> still nothing happens when I click on the menu entry
[16:57] <pikapika> the menu entry for Bluetooth adapters to the left however opens a dialog asking if I should enable bluetooth
[16:57] <pikapika> and when I enable it, blueman-applet automatically started
[16:57] <pikapika> Its not a big problem for me all in all, since its very rare I have to use bluetooth and the file does end up somewhere on the machine even if not the expected location
[16:57] <diogenes_> pikapika, yep it should first enable bluetooth.
[16:58] <pikapika> diogenes_, yeah so the bluetooth manager link didn't do anything even after exiting the applet and restarting bluetooth via systemctl
[16:59] <diogenes_> pikapika, blueman-manager is the command.
[16:59] <diogenes_> see what terminal outputs.
[17:00] <pikapika> Gave me a python stack trace, then blueman-manager version 2.0.5 starting
[17:00] <pikapika> There is an instance already running
[17:00] <pikapika> interestingly the first line of the trace refers to pulseaudio profile for some reason
[17:01] <diogenes_> so that's why, try: killall -9 blueman
[17:02] <pikapika> that didn't match anything
[17:02] <pikapika> I did a pkill blueman
[17:02] <pikapika> then retried the blueman-manager command
[17:02] <pikapika> and it works now
[17:03] <pikapika> though it opens up the same gui that I had found from the applet menu
[17:03] <pikapika> and yeah applet started again
[17:03] <pikapika> Anyways, I'll still try this series of steps next time I have to do a transfer and see whether the files land in the right place then
[17:03] <pikapika> Thanks for the help
[17:04] <diogenes_> pikapika, install dconf-editor
[17:04] <pikapika> diogenes_, it appears related to gnome...do I have to do this on xubuntu?
[17:04] <diogenes_> then go to blueman > shared-path.
[17:10] <pikapika> ok installed it...also that bluetooth-manager seems to have dropped into a bluetooth shell now
[17:11] <pikapika> diogenes_, The following schemas:
[17:11] <pikapika>   org.blueman.plugins.netusages
[17:11] <pikapika>   org.blueman.gsmsettings
[17:11] <pikapika> contain neither keys nor children.
[17:11] <pikapika> it said on the terminal when I opened dconf-editor
[17:12] <pikapika> does that mean anything or can it be ignored?
[17:12] <diogenes_> just see if there is blueman settings in dconf-editor
[17:13] <pikapika> it has something in /org/blueman
[17:14] <pikapika> yeah the /org/blueman/transfer/shared-path has the string for my ~/Downloads
=== vlm_ is now known as vlm
[17:18] <diogenes_> try to change it to Documents for instance and see if it's obayed.
[17:20] <pikapika> Thanks, I'll try to manually edit that key next time I do a transfer and see if it works
[17:21] <diogenes_> ok come with a feedback.
[17:22] <pikapika> Thank you for the help
[17:24] <diogenes_> you're welcome
