[00:41] <keithzg[m]> Being reminded that Firefox is a Snap package now because I installed the Kubuntu desktop on a server meant to run some Windows VMs for convenience's sake and now the server monitoring is throwing a red warning on disk checks because it doesn't have access to the mount for Firefox's Snap lol
[01:04] <MrSassyPants> so okay
[01:05] <MrSassyPants> after the update, discord no longer works correctly
[01:07] <MrSassyPants> it can't access the webcam, nor any of the microphones, nor does it do anything beyond basic text messages successfully
[01:08] <oerheks> Proprietary blob..
[01:21] <MrSassyPants> So the web version (in firefox) connects but fails at using devices as well
[01:22] <MrSassyPants> So YES
[01:22] <MrSassyPants> In order to talk to the people I wanted to talk to
[01:22] <MrSassyPants> I had to run discord in chromium
[01:23] <MrSassyPants> because neither firefox nor discord proper work
[01:23] <MrSassyPants> So whoevers idea this was deserves the fucking boot tbh
[11:59] <cbreak> the snap firefox has caused me more problems than just warnings :(
[12:00] <cbreak> the most annoying one is that it can't connect to the password manager anymore
[12:00] <cbreak> the less annoying one is that I can't change the firefox icon in the desktop file, since that thing's on the read only filesystem inside the snap :/
[12:01] <rick__> anybody here?
[12:05] <cbreak> yes
[12:05] <cbreak> 128 people are here
[12:05] <cbreak> well... 128 ... entities
[12:07] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[15:46] <enigma9o7[m]> I see 887 people/entities.
 Hello!
 I'm having some issues while trying to install Kubuntu on my Lenovo Yoga C740 laptop. I'm getting stuck in either of these two screens while booting from USB, and googling for solutions doesn't seem to help.

[17:29] <enigma9o7[m]> The second one is acting like you removed the usb drive.  If you didnt do that, maybe try using another usb port, maybe one is flakey.
 I have only one usb-a port here
 Well, I do have one of these, but the result is the same. https://www.biltema.fi/toimisto---tekniikka/tietokonetarvikkeet/tietokonekaapelit/usb-type-c/usb-tyyppi-c--keskitin-hdmi--sd--micro-sd--ja-usb-a-porteilla-2000046049
 Could be the USB drive as well. Or the iso. So check md5 hash and another drive if you can
 The drive worked 100% fine on my desktop
 And hash is OK and I tried another usb drive already, just in case
 I downloaded Arch Linux, created a USB stick and that worked just fine. This problem seems to be with Kubuntu, Mint and POP OS now
[21:12] <tomreyn> @npeippo: these screens don't looks like they're from a recent *ubuntu release. what are you trying to install there? verify the data written to the usb matches that of the iso file, and try a bios update, too.
[21:17] <tomreyn> There are Lenovo Yoga C740-14IML (81TC) and C740-15IML (81TD) laptops.
[21:19] <tomreyn> those numbers refer to the screen size. the 15IML has a numpad in addition to the base keyboard.
 I have the 14"
 The screensho... well, photos, are from the latest Kubuntu installer. Hash verified and the same usb stick worked fine on my desktop computer
 Bios is the latest version
[21:24] <tomreyn> Hash verified for what?
[21:25] <tomreyn> "the same usb stick worked fine on my desktop computer" is an indication but no more than that, unfortunately.
[21:26] <tomreyn> same for arch linux booting off it, there can be many reasons why one system worked with this stick but another won't.
[21:26] <tomreyn> many try disabling secure boot, too
[21:26] <tomreyn> though this really doesn't seem to be the issue from the output
[21:28] <tomreyn> balena atcher is a cross platform utility to write an iso and verify it was written correctly
[21:28] <tomreyn> *etcher
 It's disabled (re @IrcsomeBot: <tomreyn> many try disabling secure boot, too)
 I'll give it a try, thanks! (re @IrcsomeBot: <tomreyn> balena atcher is a cross platform utility to write an iso and verify it was written correctly)
[21:32] <tomreyn> oops, this was supposed to say "maybe", not "many", glad you understood nevertheless
 Yeah I figured it out 😂
[21:36] <tomreyn> bug 500822 seems to be related
[21:36] <tomreyn> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/500822/comments/24 is a great analysis
[21:37] <tomreyn> https://askubuntu.com/questions/47076/how-do-i-fix-cant-open-dev-sr0-no-medium-found-on-usb-boot may work around this apparent hardware issue.
 Thanks, I'll read those as soon as I have time :)
 I appreciate your help!
