DSdavidDSAnyone here have experience with netplan on ubuntu? I'm noticing that all my manual ip configurations get cleared whenever I replug my ethernet (bringing the ethlink down and up). It's almost like I ran "netplan apply" but I can't tell if this is a feature or bug01:26
leftyfbDSdavidDS: do you have a desktop installed on the machine?01:28
DSdavidDS@leftyfb Yes I do01:28
DSdavidDSleftyfb: whoops forgot how to ping on irc for a second there01:29
leftyfbDSdavidDS: then you should be using the network manager the DE comes with, not messing with netplan01:29
DSdavidDSWhat's the point of netplan's yaml file configuraiton then?01:30
leftyfbDSdavidDS: for the DE's network manager to manage01:30
leftyfbDSdavidDS: if you're running stock ubuntu (gnome shell) then just use Network Manager in your network settings to set your network info01:31
DSdavidDSMy environment isn't for a daily driver btw. I am developing this OS to communicate with some raspberry pi's so I need some interfaces to have static IPs01:31
leftyfbDSdavidDS: ok, use network manager01:32
DSdavidDScan I do so through commandline?01:32
DSdavidDSI have two different network configurations I switch between01:32
leftyfbDSdavidDS: if you're going to do everything through the command line then why did you install a desktop environment?01:33
oerheksmake 2 profiles in networkmanager?01:33
leftyfb^01:33
leftyfbDSdavidDS: you could then use nmcli to switch between profiles01:33
DSdavidDSEnduser uses a desktop environment. I am automating the interface setup with a script01:33
DSdavidDSI also have a side project to create a live ubuntu image that will have a preconfigured yaml file to modify netplan. I don't see the need to rely on network manager here01:35
oerheksgood luck with your projects01:35
DSdavidDSthanks!01:35
=== gschanuel9 is now known as gschanuel
DSdavidDSmy understanding was that netplan replaces /etc/network/interfaces which hands off all of the frontend work to network manager01:40
sarnoldIt Depends; netplan either hands off to networkmanager, or it can write systemd-networkd configuration files01:40
leftyfbDSdavidDS: in a desktop environment, by default you use the GUI network manager that your DE comes with01:41
sarnoldif you generally want static configs, you'd want to use it to write the systemd-networkd configs. if you're running a "typical laptop / desktop" system, you'd probablyprefer the networkmanager config instead01:41
=== gschanuel3 is now known as gschanuel
DSdavidDSOkay. I've worked on headless raspberry pi's quite a bit so I was used to modifying /etc/network/interfaces01:42
leftyfbDSdavidDS: if this were headless (no Desktop) you would use netplan01:43
DSdavidDSso say I were using headless ubuntu: I am doing the right thing netplan?01:43
DSdavidDSgot it, thanks for clarifying that01:43
sarnoldyeah my headless rpi is using netplan :)01:44
DSdavidDSso back to my original question: Is netplan (or network manager in this case) supposed to reset my ip configurations to default when a ethernet link goes down and back up?01:44
Bashing-om!netplan | DSdavidDS01:45
ubottuDSdavidDS: Netplan is a network configuration abstraction renderer which uses YAML descriptions of a network to work with either a NetworkManager or Systemd-networkd "renderer". More information at https://netplan.io/01:45
leftyfbDSdavidDS: yes, because NM manages it, not you.01:45
DSdavidDSubottu: thanks, I am quite familiar with their site :)01:45
DSdavidDSokay, well that clarifies what's been going on. You guys are awesome01:46
DSdavidDSsarnold: is that part of rasbian or did you load ubuntu on it?01:47
leftyfbDSdavidDS: I have Ubuntu running on several pi's, all running netplan01:48
sarnoldDSdavidDS: ubuntu01:48

CeeClearOllo02:31
sarnoldhello02:32
CeeClearHi Sarnold. Hope the day is going well. Also hoping someone can help me with the monsoon of Ubuntu problems I have today02:33
jd_Hi. I want to make my pop_os look like elementary os, but I don't want to install Pantheon. I have searched for a theme without luck. Do someone know any?02:34
sarnoldjd_: you should ask in a pop_os support forum; folks here know ubuntu, not pop_os02:35
jd_sarnold: That is fair but looks like there are no pop_os channels on libera chat. A theme for ubuntu should work for pop_os.02:36
jd_I won't ask again here.02:37
sarnoldno channels for pop_os? bummer :( irc's the best place to get help with things. sigh. good luck :)02:37
CeeClearSo sarnold what I hope is a quick fix. In trying to fix other problems now my display is stuck in military time. I have tried to change it in details but highlighting AM/PM seems to do nothing02:37
jd_Thanks :)02:38
CeeClearGood Luck Jd_02:38
jd_Thanks CeeClear :)02:38
sarnoldCeeClear: sorry, I'm not very familiar with the gui things. I got *very* upset when the output of my 'date -u' commands switched from 24-hour time to 12 hour am/pm time recently, and found a workaround with setting the LC_TIME variable..02:40
sarnoldCeeClear: but it sounds like you would prefer the thing that my local switched *to*, so... heh02:41
CeeClearI have had a long and winding road with Ubuntu today. trying to fix a brasero bug led to having to use fsck which led to being unable to change my background or the time setting02:43
CeeClearahhh.......02:43
CeeClearSo did you do the manual switch for time setting sarnold ???02:43
sarnoldCeeClear: I did, but since i don't really use a DE it was pretty straightforward, I just needed to set the environment variable in my shell startup scripts and when starting my i3bar ..02:48
sarnoldCeeClear: it probably wouldn't work that easily if you've got a full gnome thing going on :(02:48
CeeClearyeah I use gnome environment cause its easy02:49
CeeClearany tips on a stuck background or the Brasero bug ??02:49
lotuspsychjeCeeClear: check the recent brasero bugs ; https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/brasero/+bugs?orderby=importance&start=002:51
lotuspsychjeCeeClear: if your case isnt there, file a new !bug02:51
sarnoldif you run journalctl -f  in a terminal when running brasero or changing the background, do you get any errors or warnings or something?02:51
CeeClearThey have my bug but couldn't find a solution02:52
sarnoldwhat bug number?02:52
CeeClearlotus psyche. thanks for that tip: this is what came up02:53

CeeClearlotuspsychje this was the bug message. BraseroLibburn SCSI error condition on command 2Ah WRITE(10): See MMC specs: Sense Key 5 "Illegal request", ASC 21 ASCQ 04.02:56
sarnolddconf is kind of like the windows registry, if you're familiar with that.. it's way less important to the overall system, but very important to the applications that use it. you could probably move your dconf database out of the way, log out, log in, and probably then could set the background and change the time02:56
CeeClearThank you sarnold. How would I proceed about moving the dconf datebase ???02:57
CeeClearforgive me for being a newbie and thanks for all the help02:58
sarnoldCeeClear: try this: mv ~/.config/dconf ~/.config/dconf-backup   ; then logout, log in again.02:59
sarnoldCeeClear: (I'm hoping and guessing that the gnome tools will recreate this in a happy state when you login and it doesn't exist where it expects to find it..)02:59
CeeClearWill do. Give me a second to try and then log back into hexchat with the results03:00
kinghati run vscode from the snap store and firefox from flatpak, why would vscode open links in firefox but in like a blank empty profile and not the regular/default one? my other snaps open links normally.03:05

lotuspsychjeCeeClear: you didnt pass us the bug ID yet03:09

xtaciesorry for the late hour but ive been beating my head over this.. i have an ubuntu 20.04 vps i put ufw and fail2ban on fine... i was trying to setup PSAD via apt and tried downloading the tar and running the perl installer.. i can get the psad to run without any errors nagging BUT its not picking up traffic no matter how much i scan. i was hoping someone had a moment to help03:24

xtacieive set iptables -L03:27
sarnoldCeeClear: hmm I thougth MMC was a memory card thing; are you sure you've selected the right device?03:28
xtacieive added it to the before.rules file the 2 lines before commit03:28
xtacieive literally read over a dozen different guides03:28
oerhekslike this guide? https://www.libellux.com/psad/#firewall-settings03:28
xtacieand its onlu this server.. my others, i have a hardening script i run that installs/configs and dont have no prob03:29
sarnoldNeoFAT32: any chance you can fix your connection?03:30
xtacieyeah thats the 2nd to last tut i went over03:30
lotuspsychjeCeeClear: please run; apport-collect 1964554 from your terminal now03:30
xtaciei feel like my config may be off and psad process is reading the wrong file.. i thought ufw/iptable events goto syslog03:31
sarnoldxtacie: it's definitley worthwhile to go one step at a time (a) make sure your iptables is rejecting thing (b) make sure it's logging them (c) make sure it's logging them where you expect (d) make sure psad is reading them from where you expect, etc03:32
xtaciehow can i see where firewall events are logged to03:32
xtacieim running ufw, ive set rules.. its enabled and logging aswell03:32
xtaciei can scan them externally to verify the rules are working03:32
sarnoldjournalctl -f maybe, or tail -F /var/log/*  maybe, something like that03:33
xtaciei tried lnav03:34
=== William is now known as Conna
xtaciei can see events in /var/logs/psad/fwdata03:34
CeeClearjust did that. Thank you very much for the assistance lotuspsychje03:34
xtaciemaybe change config from syslog to that log03:34
lotuspsychjeCeeClear: that ddid not drag your proper info in the bug, thats just a bionic tag now03:36
lotuspsychjeoh wait, worked now03:36
sarnoldhah it only added two files. not real helpful.. heh03:36
sarnoldwow that's uncanny03:36
xtacie@saranoid so if i run sudo dmesg03:37
xtaciei can see firewall logs03:37
sarnoldxtacie: nice, good start, that means that's probably working03:37
xtacieim also running wazuh agent on this machine.. not sure if maybe it is redirecting log saves03:37
sarnoldhopefully they would have configured rsyslog to duplicate if necessary, or something like that..03:39
xtacie:o rsylog i think i remember hearing something about that last night03:39
xtaciesarnoid: sorry to bother you.. any idea on how can i grep search the entire drive to find a file containting the ufw block log i can see when i run sudo dmesg?03:44
xtacienot even sure if thats an option  but id imagine if i can track down the log to a file it might help03:44
xtacieossec is installed03:45
sarnoldxtacie: dmesg reads data directly from the kernel memory03:45
sarnoldxtacie: dmesg doesn't read those off disk anywhere03:46
sarnoldxtacie: journalctl and rsyslog can also read from the kernel dmesg buffer; journalctl's logs are in binary forms that can't easily be grepped; rsyslog uses /var/log by default but you can configure it in dozens of ways..03:46
lotuspsychjeCeeClear: try an ubuntu 20.04, see if you can reproduce that brasero bug there?03:46
CeeClearlotuspsychje I don't currently have ubuntu 20.04 installed03:48
lotuspsychjejust a proposal CeeClear03:49

jhutchinssarnold: What does that tell you that plain "which journalctl" doesn't?04:01
sarnoldjhutchins: I'm guessing it'll show a /bin -> /usr/bin symlink04:01
sarnoldjhutchins: not every ubuntu system has one of those.. but that's my guess04:01
jhutchinsHm, not a symlink here.04:04
jhutchinsOk, handy for alternatives, I traced vim.04:05
jhutchinsNow if I can remember it until I actually need it...04:06

Guest91Can anyone help me out with a regex in bash please? Trying to rm anything that has a number followed by an x followed by another number. Example, image1-600x600.png should be deleted.12:35
Guest91rm .+[0-9]+x[0-9]+.+ is giving me no matches found.12:35
lotuspsychjetry #linux Guest91 ?12:36
xtaciehmm12:36
xtaciegood one12:36
xtacieare you tryig to srub a whole volume or just a directory12:37
Guest91lotuspsychje OK, thanks anyway12:37
alkisgGuest91: the shell supports globs, not regexes12:40
alkisgI.e. ? and *12:40
scortalshellium12:46
Guest91alkisg Thanks :)12:48
alkisgTry e.g. `echo *[0-9][0-9]x[0-9][0-9]*`, and if it echoes what you want, replace echo with rm12:49
xtaciewould you need rm -rf ?12:50
alkisgFrom what I saw they're images, not directories, so I don't think he needs it12:50
alkisgIf it's recursive, they should use find instead of globs12:51
xtaciehrmm.. also.. if your just trying to remove image files of a certain resolution, i dont know if you have access to a gui but accessing that folder and sorting files based on size may be easier12:51
xtacieor if its local, mounting the folder in another OS with a gui and ability to sort based on file options may be easier12:52
alkisgctrl+f in most linux file managers allows searching with globs too, and displaying only the matches12:53
xtacieyeah thats a tricky one.. one would hate to delte all ones DPs of smaller nature12:55
semitonesOn today's episode of "semitones' day off work," we'll be trying to get dpi scaling back on the 10 GB install of ubuntu on my surface pro 3, and I already have a plan13:02
semitonesFirst you'll be happy to know that I shrank my windows partition by 10 GB, so I'll be able to DOUBLE the size of the ubuntu part :D13:03
semitonesmy plan is: get the ubuntu live USB and boot from it, seeing if it detects the high dpi screen automatically. And, if everything is peaceful, maybe I'll just do a fresh install13:04
semitonesthe problem is: I remember this install being a headache to configure, but I don't remember what I had to do13:04
semitonesif only there were some record ubuntu kept of what changes I made to the underlying system13:05
semitonesa "registry" of changes, perhaps.13:05
xtaciei find its hit or miss13:05
alocer[m]too much text :D13:06
semitonesBut anyway, here it goes. I'm making the live USB now, will report back with more updates :)13:06
xtacieas for changes.. i like to keep a running log of all the commands i use to create/harden a system13:06
lotuspsychjelets not use this channel to describe every step we try13:06
semitonesxtacie, yeah! I've started making "information.txt" in my home directory, but I keep forgetting to write things in it :)13:06
xtacielotuspsychje lol13:07
lotuspsychjeask a question and wait until volunteers can help13:07
semitoneshow about every other step? :D jk jk, i'll be back if I have any actual questions or interesting factoids13:07
xtaciethere was a person on github who made a shell script to do kinda that.. it was like linux server hardening13:07
xtacieor similar13:07
xtacieand it later became a tut13:07
xtaciei love to break stuff.. this way i have to come back here13:08
xtaciedoes anyone know of a good... ubuntu/deb security channel??13:09
semitonesmaybe someone will know if you ask in #ubuntu-offtopic or ##linux? I'm not that cool to know :)13:10

dirtcastleI've dual booted ubuntu and I'm getting error when I boot into it. it gives this cleaning dev/sda thingy and it's been like that for hours. and it still hasn't booted.15:25
dirtcastleI'm sry. i got disconnected . my internet isn't good.15:26
leftyfbdirtcastle: what is the other OS on the drive?15:27

sarnoldxtacie: sweet, you got everythiung going? :)15:30
dirtcastleleftyfb:   windows and ubuntu are in different ssd. boot partition of Ubuntu is on window's ssd15:32
leftyfbdirtcastle: you haven't answered the question15:32
leftyfbdirtcastle: do you read files that live on the Windows side while booted into Ubuntu?15:32
dirtcastlei thought I did. 😢15:32

* xtacie slaps sarnold around a bit with a large trout15:35
xtacieSARNOLD! i owe you a beer15:35
xtacieor a pack15:35
sarnoldxtacie: woohoo! :D15:36
xtacieso lol would you care to know what the true issue was15:36
dirtcastlextacie: i still haven't fixed the problem15:36
sarnoldxtacie: yeah! :)15:36
xtaciedirtcastle: i havent give up on you.. one moment15:36
sarnoldxtacie: I saw something about the rsyslog configs..15:36
tomreyndirtcastle: have you been using this dual boot setup for weeks and more and it only stopped wroking recently all of a sudden - or did you make changes which could have caused this? or have you been setting up the multi-boot only recently and it did not wrok well from the beginning?15:38
dirtcastleonly today. it wsa working fine all these days. and booted into windows thrice or smtg15:38
regeditanyone have experience using rsync for incremental backups? like with `--link-dest` ? dunno why it's not working by me...15:39
xtaciesarnold: SOOOO! the previous "builder" of this server did a crap job. rsyslog.d confs (like apache confs) had a dozen or so that were all screwed up.  AND the biggest was... creating the config for the logserver.. had a space and was looking for "[IPTABLES]" INSTEAD OF "[UFW]".. so i guess once UFW takes over logging, it hits dmesg with logs starting with UFW and not the default IPTABLES15:39
xtacieand NON of the confs, including the default 50 had the & stop at the end15:40
dirtcastletomreyn: was trying to install gentoo. i was working with chroot.15:40
xtacieSO it allowed the daemon to run without nag but wasnt finding anything to latch onto15:40
regeditmore details about the rsync `--link-dest` not working https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/AbUqDGM5/specifics.txt15:41
tomreyndirtcastle: you were trying to install gentoo and then ubuntu failed to boot?15:41
dirtcastleI tampered a litte with fstab in gentoo. but I'm pretty sure I didn't do anything wrong there.15:42
sarnoldxtacie: ohhhhh my goodness. no wonder it was miserable to track down.15:42
sybaritenhey hey15:42
tomreyndirtcastle: so you actually have a three OS boot system there now (apart from ubuntu not booting)?15:43
sybaritenwhen doing a manual mount of an external webdav service, i may want to do it with something under /mnt as mountpoint, right? Do i need to chown things afterwards to get write permissions, or is there something i can use already on the mount line to make this just work magically?15:43
sybaritenimagine i have a normal user jake, and i suppose i sudo mkdir the dir15:43
xtaciei believe has to be a part of the webdav group15:44
dirtcastletomreyn: I installed genkernel. After few hours This started happening. but I'm not sure how many times I switched off and turned it on in the middle.15:44
sybaritenxtacie: theres a webdav user group?15:44
dirtcastletomreyn: actually no. i can't boot int gentoo coz I haven't finished the installation completely. I have to do fstab and then configure grub. I haven't done that. until now I've been only chrooting into it .15:45
tomreyndirtcastle: hmm, maybe post an overview of disks and partitions and what's installed where, it's becoming hard to follow.15:46
dirtcastlehow to get that now? ubuntu won't boot. Can I do that from windows? windows works properly btw15:47
leftyfbdirtcastle: ok, so you should have started with "I have a dual boot Ubuntu/Windows system and I half-tried installing Gentoo and made some fstab changes and now my system fails to boot with this error message"15:48
tomreynyou can always boot from an ubuntu live/installer iso, written to bootable media, such as an usb stick or cd-rom15:48
dirtcastleleftyfb: i didn't think gentoo would've caused it.15:49
tomreyndirtcastle: which fstab did you edit, that of ubuntu or that of gentoo?15:49
dirtcastlegentoo only15:50
dirtcastlethat's why I didn't think it would've caused it15:50
tomreynok, did you run grub for gentoo?15:50
dirtcastleI didn't try booting into gentoo...15:50
leftyfbdirtcastle: if you installed gentoo, it probably installed it's own GRUB which is trying to boot to it's broken fstab15:50
dirtcastlenope. I haven't installed or configured it15:51
BinarySaviorwhen installing ubuntu 20.04 on my laptop I selected options for Normal installation, download updates while installing, and install third-party drivers, I pressed continue and it has animated loading circle for my mouse cursor and it's been hanging like this for 6 minutes, should I let it keep working?  how long does this part take?15:51
xtacieusually15:51
leftyfbBinarySavior: let is finish15:51
tomreyndirtcastle: oay, let's see the partition overview when you have it (no rush).15:52
dirtcastlei just looked at gentoo handbook. I have to install grub manually. I haven't done it15:52
tomreyndirtcastle: you can also run a software which can examine 'S.M.A.R.T' data of your disks, and share its output for each disk. this can be done on windows (i assume, can't guide there, try #windows) or on an ubuntu live bootable system, for example.15:52
waffle23if i install though sudo apt install would would be the correct way to remove that installed software15:59
almostdvssudo apt remove15:59
waffle23not purge?15:59
almostdvshttps://askubuntu.com/questions/231562/what-is-the-difference-between-apt-get-purge-and-apt-get-remove16:00
waffle23just want to know if its the wrong or right way i assume both are acceptable and should not break anything16:01
almostdvsdepends if you want to keep your configuration files16:02
almostdvsif you reinstall the app do you want it to be mostly how you left it or do you want to completely wipe and remove the application16:03
waffle23i'm asking because i did that and it did not reinstall it correctly i just wanted to be sure that it was not something wrong (it happans with purge and remove i think)16:04
waffle23i think there was something wrong with the package itself i think the remove part of it does not work16:06
waffle23i ask because alot of people blame the user i just want to make sure I was doing things the correct way16:07
BinarySaviorcan terminal session attach to ubuntu 20.04 install process to read logs as the install works?16:09
enigma9o7[m]I believe you can start the installer from the command line, and what it's output pretty easily.16:10
enigma9o7[m]what-->watch16:10
dirtcastletomreyn: what should I ask there? some software that can give fdisk -l  or parted print like output?16:20
tomreyndirtcastle: a software which prints partitions, and file systems on them16:22
tomreynyou can add unknown file systems manually as needed.16:23
tomreyndirtcastle: in the end, something like lsblk output would be nice16:24
tomreyn(or fdisk -l   plus notes on file systems on those partitions)16:24
dirtcastlei know the file systems by heart16:24
dirtcastle😅16:24
dirtcastlei don't remember the size tho16:25

Guest60Hi, I am configuring landscape to mirror ubuntu repositories. I am following the landscape doc, but I have a question regarding  sync-mirror-pocket. I really need to wait to finish a pocket mirror before I can run the command to sync the next one? Or I can run and landscape will queue those sync tasks and execute it sequentially.17:27

devilboywhen 22.04 is released do you advise an upgrade or I can stick with 20.04 which is really stable and tested until 2025 ?18:22

blahboybazDoes anyone have more info on this package? Is it safe? I thought firmware was boot software (the first thing that fires up - whether bios or efi)..  https://packages.ubuntu.com/impish/libfwupdplugin119:20
sarnoldblahboybaz: fwupd and fwupdmgr tool are the preferred tool for doing firmware updates for *lots* of devices19:21
sarnoldblahboybaz: updating firmware often comes with risks, yes, a lot of devices can't handle the process being interrupted19:21
blahboybazsarnold: but firmware is bios or efi right? Just want to confirm my understanding19:22
blahboybazor is drivers also considered "firmware"?19:22
sarnoldblahboybaz: that and much more -- USB docks, monitors, etc19:23
blahboybazsarnold: for some reason I thought that (for safety reasons) firmware updates were to be done manually. Is that package doing automatic update or something?19:23
blahboybazThe only firmware upgrade I rememver doing you have to put the new firmware on a usb stick then boot to it or something19:24
blahboybazyou can brick your machine if it screws up19:24
sarnoldblahboybaz: some devices still require to do things like that :( I really wish I could upgrade my supermicro's bios with fwupdmgr, instead I think they require the USB dos boot stick or similar19:25
blahboybazsarnold: Ok.. well, when I saw that package come up, I just want to make sure that no automatic update is going on with firmware. Should I look for some configuration file or something in order to make sure it is not doing something automatically?19:27
sarnoldblahboybaz: I'm not so sure about *automatic* updates, I don't know off-hand what might be running in the standard systems19:28
sarnoldblahboybaz: I *think* all updates with fwupd need to be done by hand, but I can't promise that19:28
blahboybazsarnold: Well the way it came up is as a packeage that is no longer needed (suggests autoremove) BUT because of what it is it kind of alarmed me. Makes me want to verify what may be going on on this machine19:29
sarnoldblahboybaz: the impish version of the source package https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fwupd/1.7.5-3~21.10.1  .. also builds a libfwupdplugin5 binary package. It probably replaces the libfwupdplugin119:31
sarnold.. package that you've got installed, and apparently nothing else requires that one any more19:31
blahboybazsarnold: I see19:33
blahboybazI guess I won't worry about it too much19:33
blahboybaz:)19:33
blahboybazthanks19:33
sarnoldblahboybaz: woot :)19:34
tomreynsarnold: fwiw, most supermicros let you do the bios  upgrade via ipmi, if you have one. you'd need an extra license (or work around that), though.20:07

Whisky`how is this a years old issue? Cambrige CSR A10. it /was/ working.21:14
semitonesI'm now suspecting that the dock I had before was part of GNOME21:23
semitonesDoes standard Ubuntu have a dock, like unity did21:24
semitonesAnd if you press the super key, it opened a menu that let you search for apps and other things21:25
semitones?21:25

semitonesComing in clutch21:25
semitonesThanks21:26
semitonesNow have to figure out how to do a minimal install of all the ubuntu-gnome stuff without getting all the applications that ubuntu-desktop pulls in21:27
semitonesI wish I knew if high dpi ever worked for me, or if I originally just chose a normal screen resolution so things would just work, and never noticed a difference21:31
semitonesSince I can never know, I'll just try again and test it out21:32
eelstreborthe latest update to firefox messed things up22:00
Chunkyzeelstrebor: yes it's happening to a lot of others22:00
Chunkyzfails to start, gives errors when opening via terminal. wait for a fix to get released. :-)22:00
leftyfbare you both referring to the snap? On Ubuntu 20.04 I'm running the latest which is version 98.0+build3-0ubuntu0.20.04.2 and has no issues22:03
Chunkyzleftyfb: no. a lot of people are reporting problems with the latest firefox.22:03
Chunkyzmainly arm64 iirc22:03
leftyfbChunkyz: besides this conversation, "firefox" has been mentioned 3 times this entire month, none of which had to do with issues with firefox specifically22:05
Chunkyzleftyfb: *shrug*22:06
leftyfbI just removed the apt version on and installed the snap. No issue there either22:06
Chunkyzleftyfb: https://forums.raspberrypi.com/viewtopic.php?t=331122 and https://forum.manjaro.org/t/firefox-98-0-1-seems-broken/105084/1222:06
Chunkyzlike I said, a lot are reporting it.22:07
ChunkyzI use ESR so can't say 100%22:07
leftyfbok, so looks like only arm6422:07
Chunkyz"<Chunkyz> mainly arm64 iirc"22:08
tomreynChunkyz: Does it happen on Ubuntu, though?22:13
tomreyneelstrebor: ^22:13
Chunkyztomreyn: yep22:13
leftyfbChunkyz: got links? error messages?22:14
tomreynChunkyz: have you filed a bug report?22:14
ChunkyzI linked you above leftyfb.22:14
Chunkyztomreyn: nope.22:14
leftyfbChunkyz: that's RaspiOS and Manajo, not Ubuntu22:15
leftyfbManjaro*22:15
leftyfbeelstrebor: got an error message? What release of Ubuntu? snap or apt version of Firefox? Which version of Firefox?22:15
Chunkyzleftyfb: I see reports of it happening on Buntu, arm64 too.22:16
leftyfbChunkyz: got links? error messages?22:16
Chunkyzleftyfb: the ESR is fine, the 'latest' firefox isn't. Google is your friend.22:18
leftyfbChunkyz: please don't claim there are issues with ubuntu and when asked for more info so it can be looked into, respond with "google"22:19
eelstreborleftyfb, 20.04.4, apt version of firefox 98.022:19
leftyfbeelstrebor: apt-cache policy firefox | nc termbin.com 999922:20
Chunkyzleftyfb: it's a widespread problem with the latest firefox, I'm busy rn22:20
ChunkyzI'll shut up. can't say things are broken on Ubuntu because well, you saw. oh well... hope you fix it eelstrebor22:21
tomreynChunkyz: without backing this up by references, this really just looks like a rumor22:21
eelstreborleftyfb, https://termbin.com/4p9x?22:21
leftyfbeelstrebor: what happens when you open firefox?22:21
Chunkyztomreyn: I've seen several times it's happening, not *just* ubuntu. manjaro, debian, rpios. it's the latest firefox.22:22
eelstreborleftyfb, it opens like it normally does but there's an extra firefox icon in the dashboard22:23
ChunkyzI don't use the latest, I use the ESR otherwise I'd have filed a bug report. :-)22:23
leftyfbeelstrebor: snap list # do you see it listed there?22:24
srvin debian is 91.7.0esr (64-bit) i run debian on wsl2  as well ubuntu sometimes22:25
eelstreborleftyfb, no22:25
srvthats the later esr firefox22:25
leftyfbChunkyz: the only non-arm64 posts I can find refer to being unable to play video, which again, works fine fore me with both the snap and apt version of firefox. And as eelstrebor just pointed out, it's running just fine for them, but there's a cosmetic issue going on with another icon22:25
eelstreborleftyfb, https://termbin.com/4p9x22:25
tomreyneelstrebor: snap is not apt ;)22:26
tomreyneelstrebor: you apparently posted the same url again22:27
leftyfbeelstrebor: snap list firefox22:27
eelstreboroops22:27
eelstreborsnap list firefox is empty22:27
leftyfbeelstrebor: the resulting output shouldn't be empty22:28
eelstreborerror: no matching snaps installed22:28
leftyfbok22:28
srvthats why i prefer in debian & ubuntu use apt better than snap22:28
leftyfband do you get the same context menu's when you right-click both icons in your launcher?22:29
Chunkyzsrv: yeah snap is cancer22:29
leftyfbsrv: Chunkyz: lets not22:29
eelstreborleftyfb, no22:29
leftyfbeelstrebor: ok, can you explain what menu's you get for eacH?22:29
eelstreborone of them launches firefox and right clicking sows "Firefox" and "unlock from launcher"22:30
eelstreborthe other icon has 7 selections22:31
eelstrebori wish i could copy/paste the selections from that icon22:32

Chunkyzsnap is cancer though, I was replying to srv Maik22:33
* Chunkyz goes back to lurking - I know 'better'22:34
MaikChunkyz: leftyfb meant not to start a discussion about it in this support channel and you know that :)22:34
leftyfbeelstrebor: ok, so you're running Unity. That's a bit non-standard for Ubuntu these days and only community supported. I looks a bit messy to clean that up https://askubuntu.com/questions/135676/how-can-i-remove-or-disable-unlock-from-launcher-in-the-quicklist-of-a-launche22:35
leftyfbeelstrebor: mind you, this is more likely an issue with Unity and not Firefox22:35
eelstreborok. i think the other is wayland? i don't particuraly like that one22:36
leftyfbeelstrebor: no, the "other" is Gnome shell22:37

eelstrebori changed my desktop to gnome and firefox still doesn't work like it did before the upgrade - i have a webif connection to a satellite receiver that use to launch vlc but now it just downloads a file that's suppose to be a live stream from the satellite receiver23:44
eelstreborit did the same thing with unity23:44
