[02:47] <NeilRG> Is CIFS a good way to mount a windows filesystem?
[02:49] <mybalzitch> over the network? its about your only choice
[02:55] <jonathan> sudo mount -t cifs -o username={username},uid={uid} //{source} /{mnt point}
[02:56] <jonathan> giving the option uid gives your user id access to write... don't forget that one, unless you're looking for readonly
[03:03] <NeilRG> mybalzitch, oh I see, I thought it was different than NTFS.  thanks for explaining
[03:04] <NeilRG> (as in an alternative)
[03:04] <mybalzitch> ahh no.
[03:05] <mybalzitch> CIFS (aka samba) is what microsoft/windows uses for network file sharing
[03:05] <mybalzitch> well, samba is the foss version of it, microsoft used to call it SMB before CIFS
[03:05] <mybalzitch> iirc anyway
[03:07] <devslash> I have ubuntu installed on an external micro SD card. Would it show up as mmcblk0 in the grub console
[03:08] <NeilRG> mybalzitch, ok thanks
[04:29] <redhelmet> hi all,this ubuntu 18 has notifications that when i just click 1 item,all of them disappears,is there a way to retain the unopen notifications ?
[04:35] <redhelmet> nvm,found an extension for it,tnx all :)

[10:06] <eoli3n> ok lotuspsychje ogra this morning, with oem enabled, everything is working well...
[10:06] <eoli3n> about my acpi problem on optiplex 7490
[10:07] <eoli3n> i did a great job : i had a problem, i worked on it, it solved
[10:07] <eoli3n> i don't feel useless at all
[10:12] <oerheks> !jay
[10:13] <ogra> eoli3n, congrats !
[10:37] <lotuspsychje> eoli3n: wich oem kernel did you pick?
[11:19] <eoli3n> lotuspsychje 5.14.0-1032-oem
[11:19] <eoli3n> i let "ubuntu-drivers install" choose it
[11:22] <lotuspsychje> eoli3n: cool, ubuntu-drivers installs oem kernels now?
[11:25] <eoli3n> lotuspsychje yes, you can't even disable it
[11:25] <eoli3n> if you use it
[11:26] <eoli3n> --no-oem switch is broken
[11:26] <ogra> file a bug !
[11:26] <eoli3n> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-drivers-common/+bug/1966413
[11:26] <eoli3n> already did
[11:27] <lotuspsychje> can you paste us what that oem list looks like on a dell plz?
[11:27] <eoli3n> you mean ubuntu-drivers --list ?
[11:27] <lotuspsychje> list-oem     Show all OEM enablement packages which apply to this system
[11:27] <eoli3n> ok
[11:27] <ogra> yay
[11:28] <eoli3n> https://x0.at/d_Qn.txt
[11:28] <lotuspsychje> never seen those before
[11:29] <lotuspsychje> !info oem-somerville-grimer-rkl-meta
[11:30] <lotuspsychje> cool though eoli3n hardware support for Dell OptiPlex 5490 AIO, 7490 AIO
[11:30] <eoli3n> i solved the --no-oem switch by extracting nvidia driver version manually with : ubuntu-drivers devices 2>/dev/null | awk '/recommended/ {print $3}'
[11:30] <eoli3n> lotuspsychje maybe a recent update solved my problem
[11:31] <eoli3n> from those packages
[11:31] <lotuspsychje> could be
[11:42] <eoli3n> where can I list updates for the package ? https://packages.ubuntu.com/focal-updates/misc/oem-somerville-grimer-rkl-meta
[11:42] <eoli3n> versions by date
[11:43] <eoli3n> hm that package only contains a .list file for apt
[11:44] <eoli3n> https://x0.at/0s2i.txt
[11:46] <eoli3n> interresting ! https://x0.at/Hi_T.txt
[11:49] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[13:03] <rush> theres kind of a bug with the menu if you click it open and close it wont open again until you move the mouse. like you cant keep clicking it open and close without moving the mouse again
[14:03] <didac45> hello people
[14:03] <lotuspsychje> welcome didac45
[14:03] <didac45> i have a question
[14:03] <didac45> where is the location of the image of anbox?
[14:04] <didac45> image .img android
[14:04] <oerheks> not on cdimage https://cdimage.ubuntu.com/
[14:04] <oerheks> ask in #andbox?
[14:04] <oerheks> -d

[16:59] <jhutchins> The stable version of Ubuntu 22.04 is scheduled to be released on April 21, 2022.
[17:02] <enigma9o7[m]> How bout a release party?  May 1st?  Last Vegas?
[17:08] <ogra> in #ubuntu-release-party during the release day usually ... beyond that, ask your LoCo 😉
[17:19] <jhutchins> If we generate enough dedicated single-topic channels, we can reach the point of having one user per channel.
[17:58] <Shub> whats up
[17:58] <Shub> guys
[17:59] <Shub> anyone use arch here
[17:59] <Shub> damn

[18:26] <coprolalic> hey
[18:26] <coprolalic> are the betas SecureBoot signed?
[18:27] <lotuspsychje> !next | coprolalic
[18:27] <coprolalic> well this is a general q though
[18:27] <coprolalic> for all releases
[18:27] <coprolalic> i.e., is it policy for Ubuntu to sign betas?
[18:28] <coprolalic> but thanks lotuspsychje I will try -next
[19:00] <Dr-007> hey. it sometimes occurs that my visual studio code icon in ubuntu dissapears in the taskbar. then reappears 3 / 4 seconds later. but the current visual studio session / app i am using isnt recognized as open anymore. so when i click it it'll load a new visual studio code app while im running one.
[19:04] <ogra> Dr-007, snap packages can upgrade themselves when there is a new version on the server ... if your app is open and you do not have run 'sudo snap set system experimental.refresh-app-awareness=true' it will even upgrade while running ... during upgrade a new icon gets installed and you see this effect
[19:05] <oerheks> ogra, +1  good answer, there is a way to delay update and restart app
[19:05] <ogra> Dr-007, run the above command and you will instead get a desktop notification that asks you to close the app and do a manual 'sudo snap refresh'
[19:05] <Dr-007> ogra, that is some in-depth knowledge. thanks
[19:05] <ogra> (this will be on by default in the 22.04 release)
[19:06] <ogra> as long as the app is open it will not refresh ...
[19:06] <Dr-007> ok, nice. thanks. ive ran it
[19:06] <oerheks> https://snapcraft.io/blog/experimental-feature-snap-refresh-awareness-and-update-inhibition
[19:07] <oerheks> one of the major request of users and administrators
[19:07] <oerheks> one i would not apply to browsers, IMHO
[19:08] <ogra> wwll, the refresh app awareness helps a lot here, especially with browsers
[19:08] <ogra> (if the browser updates underneath the running one, your session from that moment on is gone)
[19:32] <jhutchins> ogra: Shouldn't the running image in RAM be untouched until a significant part of it has to be reloaded?
[19:33] <philipp64> Hi. I'm running an Ubuntu 20.04 LTS VM on a x86_64 server running CentOS 7.9.  My server has an X552 ixgbe chipset, and my guests use the ixgbevf driver and VLAN's.  After a reboot, things run as fast as my internet connection, but over a few days slow to a crawl (about 129KB/sec).  Taking the interface down, doing an "rmmod ixgbevf && modprobe ixgbevf" doesn't help significantly.  Only rebooting does.  Other VM's running other OSes don't see this
[19:33] <philipp64> slow down, just Ubuntu.  Is this a known issue?
[19:34] <jhutchins> philipp64: The other VMs are on the same host?
[19:34] <ogra> the prob is the cache on disk ... the stuff in ram will just function ... but snaps have versioned writable dirs (so a roll-back gets you the matching data and configs) ... the old version keeps running and writes to the old location ... after restart it will use the new location ... which only has the data that was forward copied during update
[19:38] <philipp64> jhutchins: yes, all on the same host.  apples to apples.
[19:46] <jhutchins> philipp64: Have you investigated whether there are processes or connections that are "smowballing" - gradually increasing the load on some part of the system?
[19:47] <philipp64> no, I'll check that next time, but seems unlikely... the VM isn't a server... it's a desktop system used for software development.
[19:51] <jhutchins> Software development opens up it's very own can of worms...
[19:52] <jhutchins> philipp64: I'm used to the old usage of checking ifconfig for packet errors.  There's probably a more modern equivalent.
[19:54] <jhutchins> philipp64: Perhaps try emulating a different card?
[20:42] <Sven_vB> Is there a way to install a minimal Ubuntu on a "WD MyCloud EX2 Ultra" NAS?
[20:45] <leftyfb> Sven_vB: that is completely unsupported. Good luck
[20:45] <Sven_vB> it comes with busybox and dpkg, so I imagine it might be possible to install debian package "ubuntu-minimal". however, I'm not sure if that would mess with WD's kernel. also I cannot find any kind of package manager in that busybox, and dependencies are the entire point of ubuntu-minimal.
[20:45] <Sven_vB> oh. ok. thanks!
[20:52] <matsaman> Sven_vB: 'NAS' these days is just code for locked down proprietary NAS. You should take any drives you've got and hook them up to a low power SBC, install a plain Ubuntu or whatever and then boom you'll have an uncomplicated NAS
[20:54] <ina> in snap store what's the difference between let's say firefox latest/stable candidate edge and beta?
[20:55] <leftyfb> ina: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/channel/desktop/
[20:55] <leftyfb> ina: https://snapcraft.io/docs/channels
[21:00] <ina> so the firefox snap beta corresponds to firefox beta and edge is like firefox nightly. Correct?
[21:02] <leftyfb> ina: doesn't looks that's true either: https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/firefox-edge-is-not-using-nightly/7694/3
[21:02] <leftyfb> ina: the different channels in snap are really up to the vendor/developer to choose how/if to use them
[21:05] <ina> ok. Is it possible to install multiple channels of firefox or other snap packages?
[21:05] <leftyfb> I'm not sure, probably not
[21:09] <ina> I'm scared it could cause problems as I already have the stable version installed
[21:09] <leftyfb> ina: then why bother installing a beta/nightly?
[21:10] <ina> I'm curious if there are any new features
[21:10] <leftyfb> ina: probably, but there's also probably new bugs
[21:14] <Grems> My /var/logs/syslog has a whole lot of this line: [Date] [computer name] /usr/libexec/gdm-x-session[12345]: (II) modeset(0): Modeline "1920x1080"x0.0  148.50  1920 2008 2052 2200 etc." - The next line being Very similar, but with a different resolution, and then this repeats several times a second. What's it doing, and how do I stop it? Cycling through multiple resolutions, trying them out? That seems quite
[21:14] <Grems> unnecessary
[21:15] <Grems> I've already run an xrandr-script generated by arandr to set the monitor and resolution I want
[21:15] <Grems> Ubuntu 21.10
[21:16] <Grems> Hm. "Using hsync ranges from config file \n Using vrefresh ranges from config file". Maybe that config file should be examined
[21:17] <Grems> /etc/X11/xorg.conf - Renamed it to get the computer to work.
[21:22] <Grems> Trying `Xorg -configure` from console
[21:22] <matsaman> what's the problem?
[21:23] <Grems> Noisy log and potentially high CPU-usage. The latter might be because of something else though
[21:24] <matsaman> Grems: using java at all?
[21:25] <Grems> matsaman: Hm, not that I can think of right now. Checking htop
[21:25] <matsaman> Hrmmm. Yeah disregard.
[21:25] <matsaman> Seems like a bug GNOME knows about and is happy to ignore: http://google.com/search?q=gdm+modeline+spam
[21:25] <Grems> Doesn't seem like it from htop or ps aux
[21:26] <Grems> Aw. :(
[21:26] <Grems> But I don't have an xorg.conf atm, so I'll try this anyway
[21:32] <Grems> I now have a significantly longer xorg.conf (~170 lines versus the previous 10ish, going from intel integrated to Nvidia (I know, I know))
[21:33] <Grems> "Cannot establish any listening sockets - Make sure an X server isn't already running" - Off to kill X, I suppose
[21:42] <Grems> matsaman: This command takes around 30% CPU right now: Xorg vt4 -displayfd 3 -auth /run/user/1000/gdm/Xauthority -nolisten tcp -background none -noreset -keeptty -novtswitch -verbose 3
[21:53] <Maximalist> are there any major security updates for J.J.?
[21:56] <oerheks> Maximalist, ask in #ubuntu-next ?
[21:57] <oerheks> ^until release
[21:57] <ravage> but the question does not make a lot of sense really :)
[21:57] <oerheks> well, some important updates need a reboot
[21:58] <oerheks> or go wild on https://ubuntu.com/security/cves
[21:58] <oerheks> oh, zero .. not published
[21:59] <ravage> there are just no security updates yet. just updates until release
[22:01] <neachdainn> I'm attempting to make a personal *.deb package for the first time - is there a way to specify that I have a dependency on _some_ libpython >= 3.8 but nothing more specific?
[22:02] <neachdainn> I suppose this is also a linking question and not just a packaging question. I need to link to libpython but I don't want the version (beyond the minimum required) to be hard-coded
[22:13] <Sven_vB> neachdainn, why would you be forced to specify more than the minimum version?
[22:13] <Sven_vB> neachdainn, if in doubt, look at the control file of other packages that use the same lib
[22:14] <neachdainn> Because there doesn't seem to be a `libpython3` package, only a series of `libpython3.x` packages. Unless Apt is smarter than I assume and knows that e.g. `libpython3.10` satisfies `libpython3.8`?
[22:15] <neachdainn> Looking at the shared libraries, I see no form of `libpython3.so` on my system, only `libpython3.x.so`
[22:15] <neachdainn> I am very new to this so apologies if I'm missing something obvious
[22:30] <leftyfb> neachdainn: you might try asking in #ubuntu-devel
[22:33] <enigma9o7[m]> you can use || or
[22:34] <neachdainn> Sorry - had an OS crash. If anyone sent anything in the last few minutes I probably missed it.
[22:34] <neachdainn> leftyfb: I'll try that channel. Thanks!
[23:51] <Maximalist> oerheks: thank you
