Lebelahi05:52
LebelaI have recorded some videos using "open camera" (an app) on my Android phone05:52
Lebelanow, after transferring them onto my Linux computer, they cannot be played05:52
Lebela"moov atom not found"   is the error05:53
Lebelaso, I naturally used "untrunc" to fix it,  but,  even untrunc failed fixing it.05:53
LebelaThe main thing I wonder about is:  Why can the video be played on Android but not on Linux?05:53
Lebelait plays just fine on my phone05:53
Lebelathe md5 sums are identical on my phone and my computer05:53
LebelaI tried it on both,  Ubuntu and Debian - it fails on both Linux distros05:56
Lebelabut it always works on Android05:56
alkisgMissing codecs. Try playing them with VLC.06:06
Lebelaalkisg, not working in vlc, mpv, ffplay06:07
Lebelaalkisg, the codec is h264 (in theory)06:07
alkisgLebela: go to file information and see the codec06:07
alkisgErhm. And what's the vlc output if you run it from the console?06:07
Lebelamoov atom not found06:08
Lebelawhy is the moov atom working on Android then?  And not on linux?06:08
Lebelathat makes no sense.  And the md5sums are identical06:08
alkisgApart from that message, do you see anything else?06:08
Lebelanothing worth mentioning06:09
Lebelait's definitely the moov atom06:09
alkisgTry to play it with vlc, then paste all the output to pastebin06:09
Lebelaok06:09
Lebelaalkisg, the output only contains stuff I'd need to censor (e.g. filenames)06:12
Lebelathe ONLY errors are the moov atom and:  "Unknown error 1094995529"06:12
Lebelaand this unknown error also refers to the moov atom06:12
alkisgWhat's the output of ffprobe /path/to/video ?06:12
Lebelamoov atom not found06:13
LebelaInvalid data found when processing input06:13
Lebelawhy can't untrunc write to my external HD ?06:14

iomari891greetings, will installing patheon desktop in any way conflict with kubuntu? latest version of both.07:59
geirhaLooks like that has to be installed via a PPA..? if so, it depends on how well the package(s) in that PPA are put together. For the desktop environments available through Ubuntus official repos, there's no conflict. You just get to choose between one more DE from the login screen08:21

schuelermine[m]Does Ubuntu use GDM?14:16
lotuspsychjeschuelermine[m]: ubuntu desktop with gnome uses gdm314:18
schuelermine[m]Thanks14:20
schuelermine[m]How does Ubuntu apply a theme to GDM? I want to reproduce it in a different context but all I can find are instructions for pre-Gnome-3 using gnome-appearance-properties14:21
lotuspsychje!themes | schuelermine[m]14:21
ubottuschuelermine[m]: Find your themes at: http://www.gnome-look.org - http://art.gnome.org - http://www.kde-look.org - http://kubuntu-art.org - http://freecode.com/tags/theme - http://www.guistyles.com - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/ - Also see !changethemes and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy14:21
schuelermine[m]I know how to apply themes to the desktop using User Themes, but how do you do it in GDM?14:22
lotuspsychjeschuelermine[m]: use at own risk, https://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2021/10/login-screen-background-ubuntu-21-10/14:23
Maikschuelermine[m]: it's probably not that easy with GDM314:23
schuelermine[m]Yeah, but how does Ubuntu do it by default? Is GDM compiled differently?14:24
waltmanSo there's no way to fix this aside from logging out or killing processes?14:25
waltmanHonestly I've got workarounds to access the file and I'd rather not have to log out if I don't have to.14:26
waltmanI wasn't sure if this was an actual bug or if there was some way reset it. Sounds like it's a bug.14:27
Maikschuelermine[m]: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1227070/how-do-i-change-login-screen-theme-or-background-in-ubuntu-20-0414:27
Maikmaybe that helps14:27
schuelermineThat doesn’t help, since that’s a case where gdm is already configured to look at the theme under “Yaru”. How do you change the theme *to* Yaru from Adwaita in the first place?14:28
Maikhttps://www.linuxuprising.com/2021/05/how-to-change-gdm3-login-screen-greeter.html14:30
Maikschuelermine[m]: maybe best to search for it on the web, i don't know the answers to that. :)14:31
schuelermineOK14:31
lotuspsychjeschuelermine: to easy theme management, install gnome-tweaks14:32
schuelermine[m]On gdm?14:32
lotuspsychjeno, to switch regular themes14:33
Maiklotuspsychje: gnome tweaks doesn't let you modify GDM14:33

dirtcastlei was trying to install gentoo. I'm new to linux itself but I wanted to learn step by step slowly and be able to use it.  when I installed ubuntu I followed a yt tutorial . there was an extended partion of 100 gb and 20 gb was give to root and 80gb for home. when I used parted print It showed 3 seperate partition. I thought that 100gb was not being used and deleted it. in the end I saw the start and end of extended and root and home and I realised the17:27

RavageXATRIX: you should be able to do the check on block device of the host then22:22
Ravagebut you are already in #proxmox22:22
gordonjcpXATRIX: is the lvm slice presented to the VM as a whole disk, which is then partitioned?22:22
boblamontRavage: then when I did a general update, it updated php to 8.122:23
Ravagethat is really a topic you can discuss there :)22:23
XATRIXtake a look please https://imgur.com/V5y516L.png22:23
Ravageboblamont: there is no Ubuntu release that is supported here with PHP 8.122:23
sarnoldboblamont: you upgraded to jammy? https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/php8.122:24
boblamonthow do I go back to 7.4?22:24
sarnoldboblamont: normally software authors don't support releases until after they're released22:24
XATRIXsuddenly, i found the problem. it looks like it ran out of space22:24
sarnoldboblamont: roll back to focal? https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/php7.422:24
gordonjcpXATRIX: that'd do it22:24
XATRIXhttps://imgur.com/6QdE2Ek.png22:24
leftyfbboblamont: cat /etc/os-release | nc termbin.com 999922:25
RavageXATRIX: have a look at kpartx to get the partitions of your disk-00 devices. but we should continue in #proxmox22:25
oerhekshttps://thisinterestsme.com/wordpress-extensions-php-8/22:25
oerheksmaybe a help for php8.122:25
XATRIXgot it thanks22:25
gordonjcpRavage: you can do that with loopback devices22:25
Ravagetrue. it does the same thing22:26
XATRIXgive some time. i'll try to free some space, and restart that staff22:26
oerheksanother hint; https://toggen.com.au/it-tips/updating-wordpress-divi-to-php8-1-x-on-ubuntu-20-04/22:26
boblamontI lost connection to the server I got as far as "maybe a help for php8.1"22:27
boblamontanyone offer anything after that?22:27
leftyfbboblamont: cat /etc/os-release | nc termbin.com 999922:27
boblamontleftyfb: what does that do?22:27
leftyfbboblamont: it will show us the release of ubuntu you are running22:28
Ravageyou can also just paste the output of "cat /etc/os-release". its one line22:28
Ravageoh its not.sorry22:28
boblamontleftyfb: i'm running 18.04.6 LTS (GNU/Linux 4.15.0-169-generic x86_64)22:28
Ravageboblamont: then you added external sources for PHP?22:29
boblamontyes22:29
Ravageon only PPA i know for that is ondrej22:29
boblamontthat's the one22:29
Ravageand that offers all version22:29
Ravageso remove all php8.1* packages22:29
Ravageinstall the php7.4 ones22:29
leftyfbboblamont: you'll want to purge the PPA and it's packages you used to install php. Then reinstall php7.2 from the official repo's. Anything else is unsupported22:29
Ravageor go back to what 18.04 offers22:30
leftyfb7.222:30
Ravagebut in general the PPA should work fine too22:30
boblamontI need 7.3 or higher, is  that possible? 7.4 was working ok, except wordpress didn't see it22:30
Ravageits really as simple as "apt remove" and "apt install"22:31
leftyfbboblamont: if you need php7.4, I would recommend upgrading to Ubuntu 20.04 and get it from official sources22:31
Ravageyou must have followed some guide to do the updare22:31
leftyfbRavage: ppa-purge would be better22:31
Ravageif he wants 7.4 on 18.04 he will need the ppa22:32
leftyfbsure, get to a clean slate and then reinstall 7.4 from the unsupported PPA22:32
Ravagebut sure. upgrade to 20.04 is a good idea22:32
boblamontI don't care at this point, i'll take 7.2, how do I do ppa purge?22:32
leftyfbboblamont: apt list --installed |grep php | nc termbin.com 999922:33

boblamonthttps://termbin.com/uh1422:34
Ravagethat is some mix of versions :)22:35
Ravage7.4 seems to be installed22:35
Ravagedo you run it on apache?22:35
boblamontyes22:35
Ravagethen use a2dismod22:35
Ravageto disable php 822:35
leftyfbboblamont: you have a sury.org ppa enabled22:36
Ravageand a2enmod to enable the 7.4 module22:36
boblamontRavage: whate exactly do I enter to dismod?22:37
Ravageafter an apache restart and a little luck your site should be up again22:37
Ravagea2dismod [enter]22:38
Ravageshows a list22:38
Ravagechoose the 8.1 module22:38
Ravagedo the same with a2enmod and php7.422:38
boblamontYour choices are: access_compat alias auth_basic authn_core authn_file authz_core authz_host authz_user autoindex deflate dir env filter mime mpm_prefork negotiation php7.2 proxy proxy_fcgi reqtimeout rewrite setenvif socache_shmcb ssl status22:39
Ravageso you should be still running php7.222:40
Ravageif you want 7.4 disable 7.2 and enable 7.422:40
boblamontthis is what killed the site a2enconf php8.1-fpm22:42
Ravagei dont see that module enabled22:43
Ravageoh its a config22:43
Ravagethen revert that22:43
Ravagea2disconf22:43
Ravageand see if there is a 7.4-fpm config in a2enconf22:43
Ravagei dont know your original setup so this is kind of a guessing game now22:44
boblamontoh thank god, it worked22:44
Ravagegreat :)22:44
boblamontactually thank you guys, it was you, not a diety22:45
boblamontthere may yet be a thing, hold on... let me log in to the admin area22:45
boblamontyeah, wordpress still sees 7.2, not 7.422:46
Ravagefind out if you run php as fpm or with the apache module22:47
Ravageyou may have configured both22:47
Ravagei still see php7.2 i a2dismod22:47
Ravage*in a2dismod22:48
boblamontI didn't even have fpm installed but someone in the worfpress group said the I had to restart it to get wordpress to see that I went to 7.422:48
boblamontso I don't think i even need it, do I?22:49
Ravageok. then use a2disconf to remove all php configs22:49
Ravagedisable php7.2 in a2dismod22:49
Ravageand enable php7.4 in a2enmod22:49
boblamontI disabled 7.2 and enabled 7.4 and then got this in my wordpress Your PHP installation appears to be missing the MySQL extension which is required by WordPress22:55
Ravageapt install php7.4-mysql22:55
Ravageand maybe check other modules in the requirements22:55
Ravagedont forget to restart apache22:55
Ravageusual suspects are mbstring, xml, curl, gd22:56
Ravageso make sure those are installed22:56
boblamontI need gd, there are some other optional ones22:57
boblamontgot gd, now it says the only stuff are optional22:59
boblamontI updated the plugin that wanted 7.3 or higher23:00
boblamontis there any reason not to install the optional modules?23:00
RavageGo for it23:01
boblamontmind if I ask what these do and if they really seem necessary? I'm not exactly feeling bold...23:02
RavageI think explaining PHP modules goes a little far for this channel. Google will give you a lot information about them. The ones I listed are safe to enable23:04
