[02:10] <hypersonic> heya. Is it typical to wait some time for new dist release to be available via `do-release-upgrade` ? have done a `apt update && apt-upgrade && apt dist-upgrade && do-release-upgrade` but still get "No release found"
[02:11] <hypersonic> I'm on 20.10.15 -> moving to 21.04
[02:12] <krytarik> Yeah, absolutely typical.
[02:12] <hypersonic> (y)
[02:12] <krytarik> And apparently there is a major bug that should be fixed first too.
[02:13] <hypersonic> oof okay
[02:16] <krytarik> https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2021-April/041448.html - has the context.

[03:29] <DarkTrick> anyone having trouble with firefox on latest 20.10? (updated today)
[03:30] <DarkTrick> hm... apparently an addon problem

[12:14] <nonodvld> Hello!
[12:14] <diogenes_> !hi | nonodvld
[12:14] <nonodvld> Hola!
[14:11] <Guest99476> Hi everyone. I am a longtime ubuntu user and wanted to try xubuntu for better performance. I have an 8TB external hdd, and I installed gparted to format it, but it will only mount read only. I have tried fsck and no errors seemed to be returned. I tried the same process with an identical drive and the same thing happened. Any ideas?
[15:01] <gnrp> Guest23862: It is probably formatted with a file system that is not mounted read/write by default
[15:01] <gnrp> ups, wrong guest addressed...
[17:11] <xubuntu42i> alo
[17:11] <xubuntu42i> hello
[17:11] <xubuntu42i> does this work?
[19:56] <spicyCebolla> hi there, i've been trying to get 256 color support in weechat, under tmux, in xfce4-terminal
[19:57] <spicyCebolla> i get an interesting output from $TERM - it says "xterm-256color: command not found"
[19:57] <spicyCebolla> does anyone know why it might be doing that?
[20:03] <spicyCebolla> oh, and $TERM in tmux results in "screen-256color-s: command not found"
[20:20] <gnrp> spicyCebolla: you have to enter `echo $TERM`, otherwise the shell will try to execute what is inside the variable $TERM
[20:21] <gnrp> however, with your original topic, I cannot really help. I am using the same combination (weechat, tmux, xfce4-terminal), but I already consider 16 colors too much^^
[20:21] <spicyCebolla> oh is that the problem, no wonder it was hard to find answers for that pebcak
[20:22] <xtao> screen-256color-s looks wrong though. don't think it should have -s on the end?
[20:23] <xtao> does it show the same if it's just echoed
[20:23] <spicyCebolla> yep, screen-256color-s, not sure why
[20:23] <spicyCebolla> i've had this computer a long time, who knows what decisions i made in the past
[20:24] <krytarik> spicyCebolla: set -g default-terminal 'tmux-256color' -- I got this in my '~/.tmux.conf' for that.
[20:24] <xtao> try doing export TERM=screen-256color   and then running weechat. if that works then tmux has the wrong term type. and yes that's how you set it ^
[20:24] <xtao> there is one for tmux as well
[20:24] <spicyCebolla> thanks y'all, i'll give that a spin
[21:05] <spicyCebolla> alright, i think maybe 256 colors was working all along
[21:06] <spicyCebolla> but for reasons i don't understand, i had weechat using only a handful of colors for irc nicks
[21:06] <spicyCebolla> it's set to /set weechat.color.chat_nick_colors "*045,*033,*176,*099,*209,*220,*228,*202,*105,*064,*011:234,*159,*034,*029,*040,*112,*147
[21:07] <spicyCebolla> why did one particular color get a background and none of the rest? i haven't the foggiest
[21:08] <xtao> for i in {0..255}; do printf "\x1b[38;5;${i}mcolour${i}\n"; done
[21:08] <xtao> should show you the 256 colours, at least that proves the terminal works
