enychrrm, Ubuntu 22.04  presumably won't have next  Thunderbird-ESR series ?? 102? 103?  with Matrix support?08:26
alkisgenyc: ah thanks for the pointer, I didn't know about matrix support in thunderbird! Thunderbird gets updated regularly so it'll get the update eventually. For now, I'll try enabling it from the config editor: https://matrix.org/docs/projects/client/mozilla-thunderbird08:33
enycalkisg: hrrm well aiui its more experimental in earlier versions...  curious what you find out about  when next ESR would be declared and all that please =)08:40
alkisgenyc: no idea about ESR versions, but I've been using thunderbird in ubuntu for ages, and it's been updating regularly to newer versions08:40
alkisg(the normal, non-esr version)08:41
alkisgenyc: example: https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=thunderbird ==> focal shipped with version 68, while focal-updates currently has version 9108:44
alkisgHmm I added my matrix account and it says it authenticated, but I can't locate the UI to send messages... And whatever I put in `Tools > Join chat` doesn't seem to do anything; I wonder if I'm using the wrong string for the channels I add there08:49
enycalkisg: how updatincg to newer versions?  a PPA?  flatpak?  snap?  upstream binaries?08:56
enycalkisg: I'd be tempted to try  Matrix Element native client first ............08:56
alkisgenyc: it's normal apt ubuntu updates without doing anything at all09:03
alkisgLike any other .deb ubuntu program09:03
enycalkisg: which thunderbird version is it then?09:03
alkisgCurrently 91, and later on, newer versions will arrive09:03
alkisgSee the link that I pasted above09:04
enycalkisg: hrrm aah yes as per pkg databaes,  well the thing is the versions mozilla provide and ubuntu provide seem to be  91.x ESR series09:05
enycwhereas matrix development and exposure seems to be in newer 'series'  102 etc09:05

alkisgWe'll just wait a while then :)09:11
NartHello everyone, I have a question about locale support in 22.0410:29
rdrdo go on10:34
Nart Thank you, I added to the Abkhazian language to glibc 2.35 and Gnome 42, but I couldn't pick the language in 22.0410:55
Nartlanguage code is abkhaz - ab10:55
rdrdo you mean during the install? or as your input method?11:00
NartDuring the install, and as input method, both, it's not there at all.11:01
Nartin glibc 2.35 it's ab_GE11:03
rdrhmm, there may be a specific package you need to isntall11:04
rdri'm not finding any packages with that language code in them looking for l10n11:06
NartWhy it's not there?!11:07
rdrI'm not sure.  the only thing i could find was a team looking to translate for the language https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-l10n-ab11:08
rdrthere's only one member and no messages in the mailing list11:09
NartI thought including abkhazian to Gnome and glibc should be enough to include it to distros in general11:12
NartWhat should I do to include Abkhazian to Ubuntu!?11:12
rdri think you might have to look intot he "ibus" input method11:14
rdrbut even then i'm not certain it will have that11:14
rdrunless it's just a matter of installing a font and keyboard layout11:15
NartIt's not about font and keyboard, the localization of Gnome, the interface of ubuntu11:15
rdrwell, i'd email the member of the translation team, but it's possible it hasn't been done yet11:16
NartI am the translation coordinator for the Abkhazian team in Gnome, we translated 3% so far11:17
NartWe need to see how our work looks like in a real life11:17
Nartaka a distro11:17
ravage22.04 is already in beta. i think its safe to say that your changes will not make it into this release11:17
ravageand Ubuntu only does "small" changes to Gnome. so when your language is in gnome Ubuntu will pick it up in one of the next releases11:19
NartThis has been quite some time, that's why I am asking, it should've picked it up in this release11:20
ravagehttps://i.imgur.com/Igid9wS.png this is my current 22.04 11:20
NartHow does this work, how is I know for sure what's going on11:21
ravagedid you try to just install it?11:21
lotuspsychjewe also have an #ubuntu-translators team if needed11:21
NartThe point is to get it supported, I can install it, but ordinary people cant11:22
NartI need to hear from the Ubuntu team, please!11:23
lotuspsychjeNart: talk to gunnarHJ in #ubuntu-translators he knows a lot on languages & translating issues11:26
lotuspsychjeidle there till he wakes up11:26
NartHmm okay, thanks11:26
ravagealso it looks like the language exists in gnome. so what you are asking is a translation of the installer to select it?11:26
ravagejust so he knows what you actually want to be translated by the ubuntu team.11:27
NartI want to able to select the language from the installer or from the language support settings11:28
ravagethe language is available in gnome in 22.04 as you can see11:28
ravagebut the installer does not support it yet11:29
Nart  > the language is available in gnome in 22.04 as you can see11:29
NartDo you have a screenshot?11:29
ravagehttps://i.imgur.com/Igid9wS.png11:29
NartThis is not it11:30
ravageok?11:30
ravagesorry then :)11:31
NartThis is not it, what you are showing me has nothing man11:31
ravagebut im pretty sure Ubuntu does not do a lot of gnome translations itself11:31
ravage#ubuntu-translators is a good way to ask for help. so do what lotuspsychje said11:34
lotuspsychjehe joined, but gunnar has still to wakeup :p11:34
ravagedamn timezones11:34
lotuspsychjehehe11:34
NartOkay11:35
lotuspsychjehe helped me point to some dutch items on jammy to translate11:35
ravagein gnome itself or the installer?11:35
lotuspsychjein gnome shell yeah, right mouse click desktop had some english items still11:36
ravageok. sure. gnome-shell is an Ubuntu thing :)11:37
NartThank you, bye bye11:48
ravageheh. going offline is not the best way to get help :D11:48

howarthAnyone else seeing corruption in Cheese under 22.04?20:59
howarthA lot of buffers are being dropped21:00
howarthNo problem under 21.1021:00
tarzeauwhich camera?21:02
tarzeauif you start it from a terminal, do you get any output? anything in dmesg output?21:03
howarthLogitech, Inc. HD Webcam C52521:05
howarthcheese:4028): cheese-WARNING **: 17:00:04.925: A lot of buffers are being dropped.: ../libs/gst/base/gstbasesink.c(3143): gst_base_sink_is_too_late (): /GstCameraBin:camerabin/GstViewfinderBin:vf-bin/ClutterGstVideoSink:cluttergstvideosink0:21:05
howarthThere may be a timestamping problem, or this computer is too slow.21:05
howarthI tried adding /etc/modprobe.d/uvcvideo.conf with 'options uvcvideo nodrop=1' and it didn't help21:07
howarthIt shows up as a black and white image with lots of vertical white bands21:08
howarthTried the current Fedora beta and it has no video problems with Cheese on the Logitech C525. So this regression appears to be Ubuntu specific.21:54
howarthOf course, the current Fedora beta is on the 5.17 kernel rather than 5.15.21:55
howarthProbably yet more regressions have to be fixed after they are backported from the latest kernel releases.21:57
guivercis there a jammy bug tracking document (yet) ?22:02
howarthDon't think so22:02
guivercuser on reddit asking about wayland/drag-drop not working on firefox; I can find bug reports for impish on issue; not jammy (fix released/committed)  .. & thanks howarth 22:03
howarthIMHO, the release is still in pretty rough shape22:03
howarthThings like the skype and etcher debs don't install22:03
howarththey fail with sandbox errors22:03
guivercskype is 3rd party, so that's a microsoft issue..  I think jammy is pretty good myself22:03
howarthIt nuked my 21.10 volume when I tried doing a distupgrade -d 22:04
howarthEnded up with a flashing caret and an unbootable system22:04
howarthThe installer then refused to detect the mangled 21.10 volume as an upgradable target and only would do a clean install22:05
howarthNo impressed22:06
howarthNot22:06
