[12:49] <QuickQuestionAut> Hello, everyone! Any idea why my window managers might have stopped auto-completing file/folder names in the address bar?
[12:50] <QuickQuestionAut> (Google gives me random results about various programs.)
 Could be a permission issue. Maybe someone knows
[16:58] <Mekaneck> @Halis they're long gone
[16:58] <Mekaneck> which you don't see at your end at telegram
 My LibreOffice has some minor problems with  slide list window (undocked, refused to dock)
 So I had bright idea to delete /home/mateusz/.config/libreoffice/4/user/
 I deleted it with sudo (warning that I ignored, I should stop and think at this point)
 Now LibreOffice fails to boot
 https://matterbridge.lubuntu.me/10c6aa06/file_3429.jpg
 I did sudo apt-get remove libreoffice + sudo apt-get install libreoffice
 I did sudo apt-get purge libreoffice  + sudo apt-get install libreoffice
 I applied https://askubuntu.com/questions/1347111/how-can-i-recreate-default-etc-cron-d-files to this folder
 How can I get working LibreOffice back? Without OS reinstall?
 "The application cannot be started. User installation could not be completed." with window title "LibreOffice 6.4 - Fatal Error" is not too useful;
 Any reason not to use the current version? (I think it's 7.2)
 That is what I got from package manager, I will run update (re @Rodrigo: Any reason not to use the current version? (I think it's 7.2))
 Yep
 after update:
 sudo apt-get install libreoffice
 Reading package lists... Done
 Building dependency tree       
 Reading state information... Done
 libreoffice is already the newest version (1:6.4.7-0ubuntu0.20.04.1).
 https://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2021/08/install-libreoffice-7-2-ubuntu-20-04-21-10/amp/
 Method 3
[19:33] <tomreyn> that's not going to be needed to solve this problem, though
 heh, I just did it (re @Rodrigo: https://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2021/08/install-libreoffice-7-2-ubuntu-20-04-21-10/amp/)
[19:35] <tomreyn> better try sudo   sudo apt purge libreoffice*    (don't miss the "*" character!) and then   sudo apt install --reinstall libreoffice
 And? (re @matkoniecz: heh, I just did it)
 fail (re @Rodrigo: And?)
 https://matterbridge.lubuntu.me/10c6aa06/file_3429.jpg
 https://matterbridge.lubuntu.me/f3746046/file_3430.jpg
 Same error?
 Yep
 Just different title - version string changed
 😕
 Doing sudo apt purge libreoffice*
 This one actually seems to be doing reinstall
 Though error remained
 WTF was in /home/mateusz/.config/libreoffice/4/user/
 Can't you restore it from trash using file manager? (re @matkoniecz: WTF was in /home/mateusz/.config/libreoffice/4/user/)
 no, I did it from command line with sudo (because it refused to be deleted, that was dumb) (re @Rodrigo: Can't you restore it from trash using file manager?)
 Solved!
 /home/mateusz/.config/libreoffice/ somehow become root-owned
 Deleting it allowed libreoffice to boot
 And thanks to that, somehow I was stuck on old version! (re @Rodrigo: https://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2021/08/install-libreoffice-7-2-ubuntu-20-04-21-10/amp/)
 So there is some benefit
 👍🏽👍🏽
 tomreyn: thanks for an actual reinstall, I failed to find it
 I'm glad you solved it 🙂
 That is because you used sudo aka root. (re @matkoniecz: /home/mateusz/.config/libreoffice/ somehow become root-owned)
 Yes, but I used it to remove folder inside this folder. Is it changing owner of folder where such command was run? (re @kc2bez: That is because you used sudo aka root.)
 Also, I put ~/.config/libreoffice into git repo so I can roll back changes in a future
 Probably got changed somewhere along the way. sudo should never be needed for anything in your own home folder unless the permissions get changed somehow.
[19:56] <tomreyn> matkoniecz: list files or directories not owned by your user / your primary user group: find $HOME \( \! -uid $(id -u) \) -o \( \! -gid $(id -g) \)
[19:56] <tomreyn> (within your home directory)
[19:57] <tomreyn> if you have a root owned file ".rnd" there, that's fine
 tomreyn: hm, it finds files which I own
 though something funky is with primary user group
 well, I will be reinstalling soon anyway
 Hello, sometimes internet stops. i use wifi connection. i make it disconnect and when i re connect wifi it just doesnt. idk why but it doesnt connect again. the solution is restarting  computer or suspending and coming back. when i do that wifi can connect again. this happened severel times in 2 weeks...
 i know this may be ubuntu based problem, it s okay. i dont mind if i dont get any permenent solution here. just sharing so u know about this.
[20:48] <tomreyn> matkoniecz: if the user group differs it *can* still be fine.
 Standard step: have you tried rebooting router? (re @tbs61: i know this may be ubuntu based problem, it s okay. i dont mind if i dont get any permenent solution here. just sharing so u know about this.)
 Is it happenning when you connect via cable to router?
 Is it happening only on specific wifi network or all of them?
 Are you using EOL OS? Have you tried updating? (unlikely to help, but why not try)
 yes, many times (re @matkoniecz: Standard step: have you tried rebooting router?)
 i dont use cable so idk (re @matkoniecz: Is it happenning when you connect via cable to router?)
 i use one only, i didnt have smilar problem for a long time before (re @matkoniecz: Is it happening only on specific wifi network or all of them?)
 i use latest from lubuntu.me and apply all updates (re @matkoniecz: Are you using EOL OS? Have you tried updating? (unlikely to help, but why not try))
 the point is that sometimes internet is wonky, not wifi (usually wifi is failing point but at least once ISP was faulty and in some cases router was broken) (re @tbs61: i dont use cable so idk)
 And if you connect by cable and problem goes away then it confirms wifi issue
 (sorry that I cannot really help but I also run into "wifi fails for no clear reason" that I never really explained)
 it s okay really. thanks for giving ur time (re @matkoniecz: (sorry that I cannot really help but I also run into "wifi fails for no clear reason" that I never really explained))
