[00:00] <matsaman> you can always use sshfs and rsync through that if you don't trust it, but =P
[01:41] <jhutchins> That's ridiculously redundant.  Document the protocol rsync uses and get an exception to the idiot policy. That's what the Security team is paid for.
[02:08] <Deep> Hi
[02:08] <Deep> which is one the best for batter saving in Ubuntu 21.10?
[02:09] <Deep> auto cpu frequency or AMD Slimbook tool
[03:02] <tmus> looks like Jammy is going to be released with a broken firefox afterall (stuff like gnome extensions website does not work), so that leaves us with installing Chrome instead, which cannot be good for anyone. Does anyone know if a fix for the firefox snap is coming?
[03:03] <ravage> !22.04 | tmus
[03:04] <tmus> ravage, oh.. thanks
[03:04] <guiverc> tmus, Jammy is still in alpha, beta freeze is 28-March, beta release 31-March so a lot can change between now & then...
[03:06] <tmus> guiverc, feature-freeze has passed though, so depending on how this issue is viewed (bug vs technology decision), I guess you're right.
[03:06] <ravage> there are no freezes for snaps
[03:07] <guiverc> FFes still apply... (feature freeze exceptions; easier before beta too)
[03:07] <Unit193> I don't think that applies to snaps, though..
[03:07] <guiverc> I concur... (re: snaps)
[03:09] <ravage> tmus: currently you can remove the snap and install firefox with apt. thats what i do atm. no idea what the release will bring :)
[03:10] <tmus> ravage, the deb is gone from the Jammy repo (on a fresh jammy install)
[03:10] <Unit193> !info firefox jammy
[03:10] <tmus> A ppa will probably pop up rather quickly though
[03:10] <Unit193> Sounds like the correct size.
[03:10] <tmus> Yep... Old one
[03:10] <guiverc> ravage, you're off-topic here & also wrong; eg. https://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-canary/current/jammy-desktop-canary-amd64.manifest  contains firefox as deb
[03:11] <Unit193> !info firefox jammy-proposed
[03:11]  * guiverc depends which ISO; a number do contain both if you look
[03:11] <Unit193> OK.
[03:11] <enigma9o7[m]> there is already a ppa, ubuntuzilla
[03:11] <enigma9o7[m]> or you can just d/l from mozilla themselves
[03:12] <tmus> Will check out ubuntuzilla. Mozilla does not have their own ppa, though? enigma9o7[m]?
[03:15] <enigma9o7[m]> No, not their own ppa.  But once you install their binary version, it updates itself.  Just exgtract it to /opt/firefox and chmod it to 755
[03:16] <enigma9o7[m]> but ubuntuzilla packages the mozilla version
[03:16] <guiverc> apologies ravage ; i wrongly tagged you when i should have said tmus; Very sorry & apologies
[03:16] <ravage> Well. I kind of was off topic. No worries :)
[03:17]  * guiverc bows to ravage in apology... tmus ^ manifest
[03:17] <tmus> guiverc, yeah i've enabled jammy-proposed and it's gone from there. in the main repo it's just too old
[03:17] <tmus> well not gone, but it's now a transitional snap installer package
[03:18] <ravage> Maybe switch to next?
[03:18] <ravage> This all seems to be about jammy
[03:18] <tmus> Yeah sorry
[03:50] <fiqihryan> hai
[04:30] <zeeshan> hi
[04:32] <zeeshan> UBUNTU 20.04 is installed in my system. I am receiving this message Backup Failed Giving up after 5 attempts. ApiRequestError:None
[04:35] <ravage> sounds like a message from Déjà Dup
[04:35] <ravage> check your backup settings
[08:04] <morganu> in teresting, after returning to ubuntu de after xubuntu I now have icons on desktop. did not before.   BUGGY THIS PROCESS OF CHANGING DE 20.04 Dell
[08:05] <morganu> goodnight
[09:14] <thyriaen> Howdy friends - I am using a custom icon set and have created my own icons in ~/.icons as svg files - they load in the applications overview but not in my launcher - a default icon is shown there - i assume i did something wrong with maybe the size of the location where to put the icons
[09:20] <oerheks> thyriaen, i think it is the location?
[09:21] <thyriaen> oerheks, where do i put it instead, because it does get loaded by everything but my launcher
[09:21] <oerheks> put them in /usr/share/icons/<name>/  ?
[09:21] <oerheks> old, but still valid https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Icons
[09:27] <thyriaen> oerheks, under 2.2 it says to put it on /.icons
[09:27] <thyriaen> but i will try
[09:28] <lotuspsychje> !themes
[09:28] <lotuspsychje> hmm outdated and doesnt mention icons too much
[09:29] <thyriaen> i put an icon there and doesn't change the issue
[09:31] <oerheks> for the /usr/  folder, logout login?
[09:31] <thyriaen> oerheks, i did restart gnome shell with alt+f2 r
[09:49] <thyriaen> i have no thumbnail previews in my gnome files - how can i enable them ? please note that the option is enabled in gnome-files settings menu for "all files"
[09:51] <lotuspsychje> thyriaen: any tweaks in your system, try dconf-editor
[10:05] <taoarst> join

[10:19] <phaisedArray> taoarst: Hello! Nice to meet you. Are you a Chinese person?
[11:05] <weedmic> When setting up an LTE connection, is this enough "sudo nmcli c add type gsm ifname '*'", or must I do the entire following "sudo nmcli c add type gsm ifname '*' apn data00.telnyx".  I ask b/c it makes swapping sims in the field a bit more difficult.
[11:06] <weedmic> sims from different companies - i meant
[11:24] <weedmic> it appears that if one stops at the wildcard, one will not progress beyond "registered" - if anyone is interested.
[11:38] <webchat6889> What does an unfiltered port means?
[11:42] <phaisedArray> It means the firewall isn't doing any funny business
[11:43] <wez> I like firewalls, but the term is overused and sometimes having one doesn't make a difference
[11:44] <webchat6889> I'm using nftables instead of iptables in my system. and warp for some reason flushes all tables instead of only its own
[11:44] <webchat6889> I'm left with no tables or ruleset
[11:45] <webchat6889> I mean, it should remove only its own talbe, no?
[11:47] <wez> webchat6889: nftables is light weight version of iptables right?
[11:47] <wez> I found it useless
[11:48] <webchat6889> wez is nftables meant to replace iptables?
[11:49] <wez> webchat6889: I hope not, because the last time I used it, it didn't support all features
[11:59] <webchat6889> wez welp, looks like I'm rolling back to iptables
[12:12] <wez> nice work
[12:48] <rob0> Ubuntu has been on nftables by default since 20.04.  Your iptables* and ip6tables* commands use iptables-nft, translating into nft.
[12:49] <rob0> The netfilter project does hope to replace iptables, but for the foreseeable future both will be supported.
[12:50] <wez> rob0: It needs to implement everything that iptables does first
[12:50] <rob0> indeed.  And Red Hat/Fedora threw away iptables-legacy.
[12:51] <rob0> Fortunately Debian did not, you can update-alternatives to return to real, native iptables.
[12:52] <rob0> "since 20.04", it could have been longer; I am only familiar with LTS releases, and 18.04 did not use nftables by default.
[14:25] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[14:25] <luna> hi
[16:22] <oerheks> google chrome update, again
[16:23] <ThinkT510> my condolences
[16:55] <noarb> I need to create a user with id 998 like this: sudo useradd -m -u 998 -g git -s /bin/sh -d /home/git git but I get this useradd: UID 998 is not unique error, because an existing user `cat /etc/passwd | grep 998` lxd:x:998:100::/var/snap/lxd/common/lxd:/bin/false - can I change this lxd user id easily? Do I need to check the directory permissions of that id to change it somehow
[16:58] <noarb> can I just delete the user and re-run the dpkg scripts that lxd uses to create the user? Doesn't have to be 998 does it?
[17:07] <ueberall> noarb: I'd suggest to ask that in the #lxc channel.
[17:37] <ogra> noarb, no, that will break your filesystem ... debian policy forces system service users to be below UID 1000, any files and directories created by that user are managed by ID not by name, if you just change the UID without adjusting *all* files and directories in the filesystem attached o that UID, things will definitely break
[17:38] <ogra> (ubuntu inherits that policy from debian in case that was not clear above 🙂 )
[17:39] <noarb> ogra: thanks, that is along the lines of what I had suspected. I was then trying to find what debian or ubuntu package actually installed the lxd user, so I could see the pre/post-install scripts and make sure I'm adjusting directories correctly
[17:39] <noarb> lxd must be installed by default, I don't think I installed it
[17:40] <ogra> also, system level UID/GIDs are randomly assigned, there is no fixed numbering except the 1000 mark so whatever is UID 123 on your system will not be UID 123 on your system since tat depends on the order the packages are unpacked and installed (and the order the maintainer scripts are run)
[17:40] <noarb> is there a better way than manually inspecting dpkg scripts?
[17:40] <ogra> lxd is installed by default in ubuntu, yes
[17:40] <ogra> errrr
[17:41] <ogra> "so whatever is UID 123 on your system will not be UID 123 on *my* system"
[17:43] <noarb> so I should just be able to uninstall whatever installed lxd, it will remove the user, I can do what I need to with that uid 998, then reinstalling should re-create the lxd user at a new uid, right?
[17:43] <ogra> yeah, that should work
[17:43] <ogra> sudo snap remove --purge lxd ... do what you need, sudo snap install lxd
[17:44] <ogra> (the --purge should remove the user, else tere is a bug)
[17:44] <ogra> *there
[17:49] <noarb> hmm... it's still around after the purge: https://bpa.st/Q6JQ
[17:49] <noarb> it's there after removing the snapd package, as well
[17:50] <scortal> hi fellaz
[17:50] <scortal> .
[17:51] <noarb> sudo userdel lxd userdel: group lxd not removed because it is not the primary group of user lxd. ... if I do this manually, should reinstalling the snap lxd package also create users if they don't exist?
[17:52] <scortal> scortal here.
[17:52] <scortal> ubuntu rockz
[17:58] <ogra> noarb, i would expect it to be re-created when re-installing the lxd snap (but i would also have expected the purge to remove the user and group ... so ... )
[17:58] <ogra> noarb, sounds like it is worth filing a bug about

[20:13] <raspberrypi400> Hello all, I am going on a road trip and want to be able to stream my music library which is at home hosted on an Ubuntu system.  What is the best way to go about this?
[20:14] <enigma9o7[m]> copy it to your phone
[20:14] <enigma9o7[m]> dont rely on interent
[20:14] <enigma9o7[m]> or especially mobile data
[20:15] <raspberrypi400> I'll be at a hotel etc and I would like access to my music without having to copy it to my phone
[20:15] <raspberrypi400> Is there any good media streaming services I should know about
[20:21] <su1t> omg
[20:24] <oerheks> raspberrypi400, any dnla service would do..
[20:36] <jhutchins> raspberrypi400: Nothing that streams music you already own.
[20:37] <jhutchins> A USB drive is a great solution.
[20:37] <jhutchins> Hotel WiFi is a legendary proving ground for horrible user experiences.
[20:38] <oerheks> !info rygel
[20:38] <oerheks> pretty simple
[20:40] <Chunkyz> raspberrypi400: you could setup wireguard, samba and use that to connect to your network
[20:40] <Chunkyz> I do this, but for 'videos' but it'll work the same for music
[20:56] <dobbicorp> so i have a server with 10 IPs (for example) i want socks5 proxies on each one of them, are there such proxies that allow to set outbound ip address? which socks5 proxy should i use?
