[00:59] <honghong> hi
[01:00] <honghong> anybody help me about android emulator in ubuntu studio
[01:01] <kostkon> !details
[03:00] <sdtr443w> So I ran apt update and apt upgrade and had 500MB of stuff to installed. Afterwards, I saw I somehow went from 20.04 to 22.04, and I'm missing some functionality. Did I get some kind of bizarre upgrade?
[03:01] <sdtr443w> All of my package sources are still focal.
[03:01] <leftyfb> Nope, upgrading to an unreleased version of Ubuntu is a lot more difficult than that. You’re leaving out a lot
[03:01] <sdtr443w> Hahaha you'd think so but I really think I wound up in some Bermuda Triangle here.
[03:01] <beol> auwooo ? your here or still at irc.worldhacker.org ?
[03:01] <leftyfb> You either aren’t running 22.04 or you did a lot more to your system to get it to upgrade to 22.04 from 20.04
[03:02] <sdtr443w> Well lsb_release -a thinks it's 22.04
[03:02] <sdtr443w> But package-wise I think I'm in some twilight.
[03:04] <sdtr443w> Like for example Python is up to 3.10. I think it's 3.8 in 20.04.
[03:05] <sdtr443w> Is there some means I can use with apt to determine which packages have fallen out of compliance with focal?
[03:07] <sdtr443w> I suppose I can just force downgrade and hope I don't brick everything along the way. I guess I can always chroot into it from a live USB hahaha.
[03:40] <basenjis> How do I safely uninstall Apparmor on my Ubuntu 20.04 ?
[03:44] <basenjis> MY Ubuntu 20.04 is on Virtual-Box Guest.
[03:44] <basenjis> No problem if we loose the OS..!

[04:13] <NeilRG> how do I make the image viewer (eog?) reload an image when it's changed?
[04:14] <NeilRG> I think it used to, but now it doesn't
[04:16] <guiverc> NeilRG, there is a preference option which adds a RELOAD IMAGE button to it; you didn't provide a release; so that's on my release
[04:18] <guiverc> preferences->plugins and you click the 'reload' button...

[08:15] <eoli3n> Hi ogra
[08:15] <eoli3n> zoom-client with snap package is broken, it asks for upgrade
[08:15] <eoli3n> using edge results in nothing
[08:16] <eoli3n> when i start zoom-client nothing happens
[08:22] <tinhear> i already tell you i only answer question from channel #0day irc.worldhacker.org see ya
[09:00] <ogra> eoli3n, yeah, they sadly changed their chromium backend with the last release, i'm waiting for a change in snapd (that is in 2.55.x) to make it work again 😞
[09:03] <ogra> eoli3n, it is a combination of unfortunate changes on both sides (zoom and snapd) ... all i can do is wait ATM
[09:09] <DevSeek> /disconnect
[09:14] <eoli3n> ogra ok, thanks
[09:47] <freeman_h> hi I am using a web console to access my ubuntu server in the history i can only scroll up to line 999. any command which will let me access the history from line 1?
[10:02] <mrkubax10> freeman_h: you mean bash history?
[10:09] <freeman_h> yeah but i got it now :)
[10:28] <ansh_> My earbuds are connected successfully to my ubuntu system. I hear a connection noise when earbuds are connected however no audio I can hear.
[10:29] <ravage> ansh_, try pavucontrol to find out if you see the device and if the app is using the right one
[10:30] <ansh_> ravage: Checking.
[10:32] <ansh_> ravage: Checking as normal user executing pavucontrol the application starts normally and browser (on which audio is playing) has selected the earbuds. However, when I execute as root user the pavucontrol it waits for pulseaudio to start
[10:32] <ogra> urgh
[10:32] <ogra> dont run graphical apps as root (why would you ?)
[10:33] <ravage> pulseaudio runs as your user. so dont use root :)
[10:33] <ansh_> ogra: Sorry, But as normal user the earbuds are selected although can't hear any song audio (only at the time of connecting I hear ting noise).
[10:33] <ravage> ansh_, is it muted maybe? do you see anything on the volume meter?
[10:34] <ogra> well, pavucontrol is for configuring ... it wont magically do anything if you dont select the right things ... look for muted output paths, for wrongly selected devices etc etc
[10:34] <oerheks> freeman_h,  ~/.bashrc file  >  HISTSIZE=10000 https://linuxhint.com/bash_command_history_usage/
[10:39] <ansh_> ravage: I see 'firefox' browser in Playback option. And since song is playing in browser the silence meter is moving with the flow.
[10:40] <ansh_> ravage: However, below firefox only 'silence' option.
[10:56] <ice9> on ubuntu 16, apt-get has php7.0 and php7.1; but there is only one package for php-xdebug which installed for php7.0;  how can i installed it for 7.1 too?
[10:57] <ansh_> ravage: I just got my one of earbuds working however the voice is breaking sometimes, the previous earbud doesn't works at all.
[10:58] <ravage> ansh_, maybe apple products are not made for open source. just a guess :P
[10:59] <ravage> !eol | ice9
[11:08] <liberate> hi, when will the Jammy RC image be uploaded? The current daily (from march 31) doesn't let me past the loader, it doesn't even get to the installer
[11:08] <lotuspsychje> !next | liberate
[11:35] <pankaj> I am facing issues with bluetooth. The bluetooth earbuds pair successfully however get disconnected as per : https://gist.github.com/pankaj-gecko/4653d2edb2f5133e89f88624a8ba3a33
[11:38] <Jeremy31> pankaj: paste results for>  pactl list short | grep blue
[11:39] <pankaj> Jeremy31: Lists nothing.
[11:43] <Jeremy31> pankaj: install pulseadio-module-bluetooth package and reboot
[11:44] <pankaj_> Jeremy31: Thanks very much. I just installed it and just came across an article. It also had suggested the same thing. Resolved.
[11:44] <Jeremy31> good
[12:12] <Talls> hallow
[12:13] <lotuspsychje> welcome Talls
[12:15] <Talls> may i have a favor, for dns configuration with vps ubuntu 18.04
[12:22] <Vuurdraak> (Ubuntu 18.04 LTS) I'm trying to start a Wine/Lutris game and suddenly get a "your kernel is not patched for fsync" error even though I'm using the same wine version and settings for the game, did a kernel update remove fsync functionality ?
[12:26] <ravage> Vuurdraak, your kernel never had fsync
[12:27] <ravage> fsync support was added in 5.16 so you will not see it in Ubuntu any time soon
[12:28] <Vuurdraak> @ravage, oke , not sure what is happening, but it seems I need to set all games/progs in Lutris to "Fsync" = off, and then stuff works again
[12:29] <ravage> and you should really update to 20.04 and maybe next week to 22.04 :)
[12:30] <Vuurdraak> I got a 100GB partition waiting for 22.0 ;)
[12:30] <Vuurdraak> 22.04*
[12:30] <ravage> :)
[12:31] <basenjis> 4/21/2022 is the final release for 20.04
[12:33] <Vuurdraak> My current 18.04 LTS was already upgraded two times from 14.04 to 16.04 to 18.04, i'm gonna make a fresh start with 22.04, and leave 18.04 opperational untill all stuff is up and running in 22.04
[12:33] <Vuurdraak> At the same time it will mave the OS to a faster M.2 SSD
[12:33] <Vuurdraak> move*
[12:34] <ravage> if you have some free time over easter you can test it already :)
[12:34] <Vuurdraak> I have other plans with easter :D
[12:36] <clarkk> On Ubuntu 20.04, how do I prevent my ipv6 address being used on the internet? The address (shown by https://ipv6leak.com/) is assigned to my wireless interface (in fact, there are 5 inet6 addresses in total on that interface). It connects to the net via a router that uses NAT.
[12:37] <clarkk> I connect to my router using ipv4
[12:37] <ravage> whats wrong with ipv6?
[12:40] <Vuurdraak> @clarkk, I guess you could use UWF if you want to block things
[12:40] <ravage> or just disable ipv6 in the network manager
[12:40] <Vuurdraak> not sure indeed why you want to specificly block ipv6 though
[12:41] <ravage> but i still would like to know why you dont want to use it
[12:41] <gordonjcp> clarkk: you also connect to your router using IPv6
[12:42] <gordonjcp> clarkk: that website is the stupidest thing I've seen all day, and I've been in a four-hour meeting with a Telco about replacing ISDN lines
[12:42] <gordonjcp> clarkk: file that in the same pile as the folk who block ping because "ZOMG ICMP MIGHT BE A RISK"
[12:44] <Vuurdraak> If the Kremlin starts pinging you it might be a risk ;)
[12:47] <clarkk> gordonjcp, When I'm using a VPN, I don't want my local address exposed. Isn't that fair?
[12:52] <clarkk> I tried to disable ipv6 because of this issue, by adding net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1 to /etc/sysctl.conf file, and rebooting, but that didn't work
[12:52] <clarkk> (and also commenting ipv6 entries in hosts)
[12:52] <Sven_vB> hi :) a python program I want to run in Ubuntu focal fails: "Failed to import WebKit 3.0. You might need to install package libwebkitgtk-3.0-0." but "aptitude search libwebkitgtk" shows no results. where can I get a libwebkitgtk for focal?
[12:53] <clarkk> need to reboot. Back soon
[12:55] <gordonjcp> clarkk: it doesn't really matter
[12:55] <gordonjcp> clarkk: only traffic that's destined for the VPN will go over the VPN
[12:57] <ravage> i think a lot of people use a VPM for privacy. then the default gateway is the VPN
[12:57] <ravage> thats totally fine. and a lot of commercial VPNs only use ipv4. so disabling it for that reason is valid too
[12:58] <gordonjcp> a VPN doesn't give you privacy though
[12:58] <kostkon_> Sven_vB I doubt the lib package for Python would start with just "lib". Most python packages start with "python-"
[12:58] <ravage> lets not discuss terms. he is gone anyway
[12:59] <Sven_vB> kostkon_, that install instruction was correct on trusty at least
[13:00] <Sven_vB> or xenial, not sure
[13:00] <ioria> Sven_vB, not sure what you need or what are you doing, but on focal you have 'libwebkit2gtk-*'   not libwebkitgtk*
[13:01] <Sven_vB> ioria, thanks, I'll try them!
[13:01] <ioria> ok
[13:02] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[13:08] <clarkk> back. Was anyone able to answer my questions?
[13:11] <Vuurdraak> @clarkk, not sure if it will block ipv6 or ignore it in UWF, but if you got UWF installed and enabled, see what happens if you add: IPV6=no
[13:11] <clarkk> Vuurdraak, do you mean UFW?
[13:11] <Vuurdraak> UFW sorry
[13:11] <clarkk> ok
[13:11] <Vuurdraak> the firewall
[13:12] <clarkk> I wouldn't mind blocking ipv6 traffic to the vpn interface. THat would work, but not sure how
[13:17] <basenjis> Could b IPV6=0  0 meaning false  +1 meaning true [boolean] if applicable
[13:19] <clarkk> I can't find literally any tutorials about ufw for ipv6
[13:22] <Vuurdraak> @clarkk, yeh only two things i can find is: https://enterinit.com/enable-or-disable-ipv6-on-ubuntu-ufw/  ,and, https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2320847
[13:30] <Sven_vB> libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37 was installed already, so that didn't help. :( is there a webkit 3.0 python package for focal? maybe I can find their docs and just copy the import commands and it will work
[13:31] <Sven_vB> maybe later webkit 3.x is compatible as well
[13:32] <webchat44>  hello, is there a way to install with lks encryption but not erasing all the disk but creating more than one partition ( i need 2 ubuntu installed for different purposes) Please...
[13:32] <clarkk1> Vuurdraak, thanks for your suggestions. I managed to disable ipv6 for the wireless interface using Gnome wifi network settings
[13:33] <clarkk1> rebooting again now
[13:33] <ravage> webchat44, the installer does not support that. you would have to configure it all manually before you start the installer and assign the partitions
[13:33] <webchat44> oh
[13:33] <webchat44> but after the install can I configure it all? I mean, not only the home?
[13:34] <Vuurdraak> oke ;)
[13:34] <ravage> whet you do with your system after you installed it is up to you of course
[13:34] <ravage> *what
[13:35] <Sven_vB> the recommendation on StackOverflow is to enable the bionic repositories in apt and install the old libwebkitgtk-3.0-0 package. is that safe?
[13:35] <webchat44> ravage thanks for your ver yquick answer, you are very kind
[13:35] <ravage> Sven_vB, does not sound safe at all
[13:35] <webchat44> ravage: and.. is there an easy way? I mean, a GUI?
[13:35] <ravage> webchat44, there is no guided GUI way
[13:36] <webchat44> ok thanks
[13:37] <webchat44> you are so kind!
[13:37] <webchat44> good bye
[13:37] <ravage> maybe a VM is a better way to have 2 installations
[13:37] <webchat44> mmm
[13:37] <ravage> sudo apt install virt-manager
[13:37] <ravage> or maybe try gnome-boxes. i prefer virt-manager
[13:38] <webchat44> One instalation is for all purpose. Includign work, with video editing (Lightworks) etc. The other just for gaming, because there are some non-official repositories and I dont want to use them in my installation, I dont trust non official things, but I need ffmpeg with vulcan and nvidia video support...
[13:38] <webchat44> The secondary is for videogames so I guess it should be not virturaliced...
[13:39] <ravage> install 22.04 next week or now if you want
[13:39] <ravage> you get all the new stuff
[13:39] <ravage> and install the older one in a VM
[13:40] <webchat44> Steam works perfectly but I am trying Steam VR with ALVR, and I need ffmpeg, there is a compiled ffmpeg with vulkan support but not official, it is a ppa and... I never install that things, but in a secondary partition with only steam and videogames I guess that it is not dangerous or a risk.
[13:50] <basenjis> @clarkk1 : https://adamtheautomator.com/ufw-firewall/  and https://kaosx.us/docs/ufw/
[13:52] <basenjis> Basically changing ipv6=True
[14:03] <clarkk> Disabling ipv6 for the access point in gnome settings doesn't disable ipv6 for that interface. :/   Does anyone have any other ideas how I can prevent my locally-assigned ipv6 address being sent via my VPN interface?
[14:04] <clarkk> I'm happy to disable ipv6 altogether, but I have tried a number of was and none work
[14:05] <clarkk> or I'm happy to disable it for the port using UFW, if there were any tutorials at all anywhere on the net that described how to configure ipv6 rules in UFW
[14:05] <clarkk> *not the port - I mean the interface
[14:08] <basenjis> Just configure ipv6 using the ipv6=True, then select which ports you need open
[14:10] <clarkk> basenjis, I don't want any ports open for ipv6
[14:10] <clarkk> I want to completely prevent ipv6 being used on a specific interface
[14:28] <basenjis> Leave it as default ipv6=False. You are good with the default settings.
[14:29] <sav> I'm having trouble connecting a (seemingly) MTP based camera via USB
[14:29] <basenjis> ipv6 has to be configured to be used .
[14:31] <sav> mtp-detect says No raw devices found, but it shows up in lsusb
[14:39] <clarkk> basenjis, looks like if I disable ipv6, I can't connect to libera irc :(
[14:40] <ogra> sav, have you checked on the phone if mtp is actualy enabled and supported ?
[14:40] <ogra> oh, sorry, mis-read ... s/phone/camera/
[14:41] <clarkk> So the best option is to deny it going to the tun1 interface that I use for my vpn.  I managed to add it to the UFW rules. It added both a v4 and v6 version, so I deleted the v4 version, but somehow my ipv6 address is still being sent to https://ipv6leak.com/
[14:41] <ogra> many cameras default to PTP ...
[14:44] <sav> ogra I did. Actually MTP is the only mode available
[14:45] <sav> I mean the only active mode
[14:48] <clarkk> These are the two rules that have been added after I run the ufw rule commands:
[14:48] <clarkk> -A ufw6-user-input -i tun1 -j DROP
[14:48] <clarkk> -A ufw6-user-output -o tun1 -j DROP
[14:48] <clarkk> How is this not working? :(
[14:49] <clarkk> I guess ipv6 is completely circumventing the vpn
[14:50] <clarkk> I've no idea how to fix this
[14:51] <sav> lsusb identifies the device as Bus 001 Device 013: ID 054c:0da5 Sony Corp. ILCE-7M4
[14:53] <jongsta> is rvm not available via apt?
[14:53] <jongsta> everything i see says to pull it via curl
[15:07] <basenjis> If you are using ipv6 you have to enable it using ipv6=True as in How to that I posted earlier.
[15:09] <basenjis> @ 08:50:33
[15:10] <basenjis> Have to go..look up the web links I said above
[16:26] <linsux> does 20.03 lts support wayland gnome?
[16:28] <leftyfb> linsux: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS supports wayland, yes
[16:28] <linsux> is it as good as fedora?
[16:29] <leftyfb> linsux: ubuntu.com/download   feel free to try it and decide for yourself
[16:29] <soup55> you could perhaps look into Ubuntu 22.04 LTS (beta), it works ootb with wayland and offers a good experience
[16:30] <leftyfb> !next | soup55
[16:31] <oerheks> linsux, no, not as good, better.
[16:31] <oerheks> do you have a real support issue?
[16:31] <linsux> i have 20.04 lts running cinnamon. i need to convert it to gnome with wayland
[16:32] <leftyfb> linsux: why?
[16:32] <oerheks> I suggest reinstall, nu cruft from cinnamon in your gnome.
[16:32] <linsux> wayland works better with firefox decoding? i expernenced high rdd usage
[16:33] <linsux> some post told me wayland will work better
[16:33] <leftyfb> linsux: not so sure that's the route I would go down
[16:33] <linsux> rdd usage 200+%
[16:33] <oerheks> with 20.04 you would already have a wayland session, choose from login
[16:33] <linsux> when i play some youtube video. no such thing in windows
[16:33] <leftyfb> what is rdd?
[16:34] <oerheks> but if you run nvidia, it won
[16:34] <oerheks> 't show up i guess
[16:34] <linsux> google rdd process high cpu youwill see bunch
[16:35] <leftyfb> linsux: you're going by a post from 2 years ago with an answer from 1 person about a distribution that isn't ubuntu?
[16:36] <linsux> yeah
[16:36] <leftyfb> linsux: https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/mnz8rq/rdd_process_fills_up_ram_and_freezes_the_whole/   this person has the same issue WITH wayland
[16:36] <oerheks> let's not google.
[16:36] <linsux> lets what
[16:37] <linsux> oh..
[16:37] <linsux> shit
[16:40] <linsux> what now
[16:51] <Dr-007> hey guys. when i connect to my server via putty i dont have a colored shell. online i found force_color_prompt=yes in ~/.bashrc should fix it. it didnt exist, i added it. didnt work. when i become root i do have colors. the ~/.bashrc for root existed so i copied it to my user's ~/.bashrc (where force_color_prompt=true among other things was inthere) i reconnected but i still dont have any colors

[17:02] <CeeClear> Hi Scotty_Trees
[17:06] <CeeClear> I have a question about Drivers
[17:08] <Jeremy31> CeeClear: what drivers?
[17:09] <CeeClear> wanted to purge and reinstall my drivers for my wireless card.
[17:09] <Dr-007> (i found out, my .profile was missing aswell)
[17:09] <CeeClear> Right now getting the error message that it it isn't working
[17:09] <CeeClear> I should back up a bit
[17:09] <CeeClear> how would I test to see if it is a hardware or driver problem ??
[17:10] <Jeremy31> What is the wifi?
[17:11] <CeeClear> type of wifi card ???
[17:11] <CeeClear> Intel corporation Wireless 8265/8275
[17:11] <Jeremy31> CeeClear: You should have needed to install anything for that Intel chipset
[17:12] <Jeremy31> shouldn't have
[17:13] <CeeClear> Yeah I think one of the updates busted a bunch of my drivers. managed to fix a few still working on it.
[17:15] <CeeClear> So is there a way to reinstall my  wifi drivers or test my wifi card
[17:17] <Jeremy31> CeeClear: post URL from terminal for>  (sudo dmesg | grep iwl; modinfo iwlwifi) | nc termbin.com 9999
[17:17] <jhutchins> Dr-007: There are reasons that the root profile is different from the regular user profile.  There are probably more important things to learn about managing linux than colored prompts.
[17:18] <Dr-007> jhutchins, well.. there's probably more important things to learn then linux. but here we are...
[17:22] <CeeClear> Here you go Jeremy31
[17:22] <CeeClear> https://termbin.com/pvfxk
[17:23] <nickgaw> Hi, I managed to install lxc on my debian system and now have an Ubuntu container running but if I do lxc-console container1 I am placed at a blank screen with no login prompt and ssh to ubuntu@container1 does not work?
[17:24] <Jeremy31> CeeClear: how about> (dkms status; modinfo cfg80211; lsmod)|nc termbin.com 9999
[17:24] <leftyfb> nickgaw: /join #lxc
[17:29] <CeeClear> Jeremy 31 here is the output
[17:29] <CeeClear> https://termbin.com/0w6j
[17:31] <Jeremy31> CeeClear: Run the 2 commands at https://gist.github.com/jeremyb31/a2bee9856d8c13f42f1835bc31bf9480 in terminal and post URL
[17:33] <CeeClear> what do those two commands do ?
[17:35] <Jeremy31> CeeClear: It downloads a script we use on ubuntuforums.org and askubuntu.com that collects some info about your wireless while removing info like MAC addresses
[17:36] <CeeClear> Got it
[17:36] <CeeClear> https://termbin.com/d5hj
[17:37] <CeeClear> Also got this message: Results also archived in "/home/*******/wireless-info.tar.gz", as they exceed the 19.5 kB size limit for ".txt" attachments on the Ubuntu Forums.
[17:39] <Jeremy31> CeeClear: Can you change the encryption on the router and extender to WPA2 only without TKIP?
[17:40] <CeeClear> How would I do that
[17:41] <Jeremy31> CeeClear: Have to access the web page for router administration
[17:41] <Jeremy31> CeeClear: also run in terminal>  sudo sed -i 's/wifi.powersave = 3/wifi.powersave = 2/' /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/default-wifi-powersave-on.conf
[17:41] <Jeremy31> That will disable wifi power management after a reboot as Intel wifi doesn't normally work well with power management
[17:43] <CeeClear> got it. just ran that command in terminal
[17:43] <Jeremy31> CeeClear: See if the router admin page shows on browser after entering 192.168.1.1 for address
[17:44] <CeeClear> it shows.
[17:46] <CeeClear> unfortunately hit a bump with logging in
[17:47] <Jeremy31> CeeClear: Might have to search the net to see what the default login is
[18:11] <Sven_vB> hi :) on focal, I try to launch my web dashboard as an epiphany web app, but it says "Required desktop file not present at /home/sven/debug/epi.tmp/epiphany-dashboard/epiphany-dashboard.desktop". So I created that file and wrote one line, "[Desktop Entry]". Still same error message. Where can I find info on what expectations epiphany (--version says "Web 3.36.4") has? My only search result was a file that does not contain the error message.
[18:13] <Sven_vB> also, does focal have other leight-weight browsers that can run websites in app mode, i.e. with just a window border around the website, and as few as possible other decoration?
[18:13] <Sven_vB> *light
[18:15] <enigma9o7[m]> It's sad that epiphany doesn't work well for you.
[18:16] <Jeremy31> Sven_vB: Might need something like https://forums.raspberrypi.com/viewtopic.php?t=88181
[18:19] <Sven_vB> Jeremy31, thanks!
[18:22] <Sven_vB> Jeremy31, unfortunately, with the example code for the file, same error message.
[18:28] <Jeremy31> Sven_vB: Do you have a file named /usr/share/applications/org.gnome.Epiphany.desktop
[18:29] <Sven_vB> yes
[18:29] <Sven_vB> shall I try and symlink it?
[18:30] <Jeremy31> Sven_vB: try copying and drop it in Desktop or somewhere
[18:30] <Jeremy31> symlink might work
[18:33] <Sven_vB> what do you mean "drop it in Desktop"? ~/Desktop? not the path given in the error message?
[18:36] <Sven_vB> I see. when I copy it to the path from the error message it works.
[18:36] <Sven_vB> thanks!
[18:40] <Sven_vB> somehow starting epiphany in app mode takes longer than starting Firefox with lots of addons. how would I start debugging that?
[18:41] <Sven_vB> oh it doesn't
[18:41] <Sven_vB> seems like epiphany hides its window until I press a key
[18:44] <Sven_vB> turns out I only need 2 lines, "[Desktop Entry]" and "Type=Application". then only mistake in the exmaple code was lowercase "application".
[18:52] <Sven_vB> even worse, it conceals any screen activity until I press a key
[18:52] <Sven_vB> I have a terminal in the background and its output seems to be paused while epiphany waits for my keypress, albeit I can see via SSH that output is printed
[18:55] <Sven_vB> I tried fixing it by having xdotool press Ctrl shortly after I start epiphany, but xdotool on focal has that other bug that causes all UI to freeze whenever I use it to simulate keys. :(
[18:55] <Sven_vB> !lts
[18:55] <Sven_vB> when will the next LTS be released?
[18:56] <kryten> !next
[18:57] <kryten> In less than two weeks.
[18:58] <Sven_vB> maybe I should try that already
[19:25] <g3poandlsl> would `apt upgrade --download-only` be the best way to cache package updates to install at a later date?
[19:29] <imi> can ubuntu work with these new airpod-like wireless bluetooth multimedia headsets?
[19:36] <imi> how do I lock the screen from commandline?
[19:36] <Jeremy31> imi: The bluetooth should work
[19:38] <imi> I already have like 2 mics connected to my machine, and I'm not sure whether I can change whic one is used
[19:38] <Jeremy31> To lock the screen, try>  gnome-screensaver-command -l
[19:38] <imi> thanks that command works for screenlocking
[19:39] <imi> when the 22.04 LTS is due?
[19:39] <Jeremy31> imi: One week
[19:39] <imi> good
[19:41] <wizard1> hi
[19:41] <wizard1> is here anybody?
[19:45] <morganu> wiz ask a question and folks appear
[19:50] <morganu> morganu|ask!
[19:51] <morganu> I dont remember how to use ubottu, if someone is bored please remind me. That's not on the factoid page.
[19:51] <morganu> !asl | morganu
[19:52] <morganu> !ask | morganu
[19:52] <oerheks> use ubotto in PM, works fine
[20:00] <meena> Hey folks. When i run dist-upgrade on this focal machine (actually, elementary), update-initramfs fails, quite often.
[20:00] <meena> Sometimes, running auto-remove after wards, fixes it, but today, we're stuck:
[20:00] <alkisg> elementary os isn't supported here...
[20:01] <enigma9o7[m]> And the main dude left :(
[20:03] <oerheks> seems there is no #elementary channel here on #libera, sorry
[20:05] <meena> okay, but these are unmodified packages, and apt issues: https://gist.github.com/igalic/7f624961f2c3aa18ef62d400d1ca4f15
[20:06] <meena> can we chill for a second and look at the error first, before bemoaning the death of elementary.
[20:07] <oerheks> with write errors, i think of fsck.. but you will need to find elementary or mint support.
[20:08] <meena> this is a fresh boot, if there was an fsck needed, i sure hope the boot process has taken care of it.
[20:09] <meena> the "unusual" aspect of this setup isn't elementary, it's probably the fact that i have a cryptsetup spanning two disks, using the same password
[20:18] <meena> https://gist.github.com/igalic/70b570fb03596d6ac4fc9bd8eb35ffbb
[20:18] <meena> it takes about 2 minutes since the upgrade to focal, and if i could find boot logs anywhere
[20:20] <leftyfb> meena: Elementary OS isn't supported here
[20:21] <meena> leftyfb: okay.
[21:12] <oerheks> Polo, fix your connection please
[21:13] <Polo> Should be good now
[21:13] <Polo> Not sure what happened
[21:13] <oerheks> network burst, or hickups
[21:13] <Polo> Yeah sorry
[21:13] <octav1a_> I'm my few decades of internet experience, usually problems are relatively outside of the user's control.
[21:13] <oerheks> but you responded, things should be fine now, hi :-)
[21:14] <Polo> Whats goodie
[21:15] <octav1a_> just open source things.
[21:15] <Polo> Still grasping that
[21:15] <oerheks> goodies? some nice gtk themes https://dekisoft.com/best-gtk-themes-for-ubuntu-download/
[21:16] <octav1a_> Polo: if there's something you would like to improve about a program, you can do it yourself!
[21:16] <Polo> Howso?
[21:18] <octav1a_> Polo: usually you would
[21:18] <octav1a_> oh
[21:20] <MajB> Not sure if this is the correct channel to ask this question, but Is there a problems with editing the Ubuntu wiki pages.  I cannot seem to log on.
[21:25] <kryten> MajB: Yeah, we've noticed the issue a few days ago already, but so far nobody responded to it.
[21:26] <jhutchins> They're probably on Spring Break with the Atlassian crew.
[21:27] <MajB> I have been editing for years and now I cannot even log on.  Interesting.  I discovered a Editing Team which I requested to join,  but have yet to be approved by them.  Guess I will wait until someone wakes up or at least explains what is going on.
[21:29] <kryten> MajB: So you're getting an error message when trying to log in?
[21:30] <Polo> ?
[21:31] <MajB> Yes.  "Nonce already used or out of range."  Whatever that means
[21:31] <kryten> Yeah, that's the one I mean.
[21:32] <Guest8286> Whaf
[21:32] <Guest8286> What
[21:35] <steve_> why is it that when I copy over the data files for Pidgin and Thunderbird, the programs don't seem to read them? it's like my data is not even there. It's been YEARS since I've had this issue.
[21:36] <tomreyn> you'll need to provide more contextual information.
[21:36] <tomreyn> copy over from what to what?
[21:37] <steve_> my profile backups
[21:37] <steve_> I copied all the information over and the programs act like I am a new user.
[21:37] <matsaman> steve_: from linux to linux?
[21:37] <steve_> yep
[21:37] <matsaman> steve_: did you overwrite a default dir that was already created on the new system?
[21:37] <matsaman> or did you just ... copy it over
[21:38] <matsaman> alternatively you can play with the profile manager features of such programs, when present
[21:38] <steve_> I overwrote the default like I always do
[21:38] <matsaman> well, what can a person say, mozilla software has gone way downhill
[21:38] <steve_> firefox worked fine
[21:38] <matsaman> I'd definitely close the app when you copy, make sure you're overwriting
[21:39] <steve_> Yeah I didn't even open the apps before transferring data
[21:39] <tomreyn> so this is about creating backups, then restoring backups, from and to the same ubuntu release version?
[21:42] <steve_> well I went from one distro to another
[21:42] <steve_> but in my experience that shouldn't matter much
[21:42] <steve_> until now...
[21:43] <tomreyn> is the target is a supported Ubuntu release? and if so, which?
[21:47] <steve_> the target is Zorin OS
[21:48] <oerheks> seems there is no #zorin channel here on #libera, sorry
[21:48] <steve_> Yeah it looks like there's no Zorin channel anywhere
[21:52] <kryten> There is always #linux though.
[21:56] <steve_> I guess so
[21:59] <scortal> .
[22:02] <jhutchins> steve_: THis sounds a lot like an owner/permissions issue.  The UID on the new OS may not match the UID on the old one.
[22:12] <MajB> For those of you that have wiki editing problems, the situation has apparently been reported https://rt.ubuntu.com/Ticket/Display.html?id=61049.  Awaiting action I guess.
[22:38] <steve_> I figured it out
[22:38] <leftyfb> scortal: stop
[22:39] <scortal> .#
