clarkkFor anyone who struggles with the latest kernel, 5.15.0-41, that gets installed automatically, breaking vmware workstation, here's a response from VMware. To summarise, they are aware, and they're going to release a fix in the next week or so.  https://communities.vmware.com/t5/VMware-Workstation-Pro/VMware-engineers-and-documentation-authors/m-p/291879305:32
clarkkThere is a 3rd party unsupported (use at your own risk) patch, but the way I've dealt with this is marked kernel 5.13.0-52 on hold, and am going to stick with that until there's a stable vmware release05:33

ppwhey. anyone use iphones here? is there a simple way to transfer music to an iphone from ubuntu/linux?06:58
enycppw: hrrm... there is a protocol and many clients iirc uerr07:11
enycppw: not tried it myself yet,   there are tools like ifuse  and programs like  clementine, at least07:12
enycppw: friends with iphone I will try this with, good point you reminded me about =)07:13
enycppw: they still have a   win7-32 virtualbox itunes for the purpose07:13
ppwlicensed and activated, no doubt.07:14
enycppw: the win7-32 yes using netbook's own license  and netbook native install changed to linux ;o07:14
enycbut it definitely seemed there are  now-working iphone-interface  programs07:15
enycwhen I looked into it...07:15
ppwI think Apple breaks compatibility after a while.07:16
enycppw: has happened, but I got the impression whatever this speaks to has been stable07:17
enycppw: bearing in mind older itunes on win7 32bit still works with even much newer iphone api07:17
enycso hope is there foss linux tool implementing the same, still works similarly.07:17

guiteI’m trying to import an ovpn file into my ubuntu’s openvpn client that came out of a pivpn… I don’t know what’s going on but the client says “connected to the vpn” but once I try to reach a destination like 192.168.1.xxx at home through vpn, destination is unreachable… Would there, by any chance, be someone here who could help :)07:35

BlackMagei need gtk2 lib for perl 5.3407:38
guivercGTK2 is deprecated; GTK4 is development & GTK3 is in maintenance mode..07:40
guiverc(anything coded that used GTK2 should have been ported to GTK3 long ago)07:41
guiverc(the parts of GTK2 still used by GIMP are all that's still somewhat supported; GNU/FSF still working on the that)07:43
toddcguite: I have had that happen often due to plocked port by ISP  works at home but teatherd on my phone connects but no traffic07:47
toddcblocked07:48
toddcguite: I was able to get the isp to move to a different firewall that allowed it07:49
BlackMagewhat is with tinyca?07:56
Unit193Have you looked into xca?08:00
Unit193!info xca08:01
ubottuxca (2.4.0-2, jammy): x509 Certification Authority management tool based on QT. In component universe, is optional. Built by xca. Size 960 kB / 3,204 kB08:01

BlackMagehmpf xca is bad08:03
BlackMagethat can work only with a database08:04
BlackMagekse is better08:04
guitetoddc: so this could be a firewall issue ?08:04
toddcguite: yes mine was I did a traceroute with port08:07
toddcguite: then verified by using a differnt isp08:08
nshireis  jammy still considered a development release?08:18
nshirethought it would be fully released by now08:18
guitetoddc: did a device was allowed but not another one on the same networ ?08:19

nshiredo-release-upgrade dumped me off at 20.0408:19
Unit193!ltsupgrade08:20
ubottuRegular upgrades from the last but one LTS release to the latest LTS release, 22.04 "Jammy Jellyfish", are enabled days or weeks after 22.04.1 is released. This delay helps to ensure that any lingering issues are resolved before people upgrade production systems. If you'd prefer to upgrade now, use sudo do-release-upgrade -d08:20
nshireyeah I thought it would be fully released as a non dev version already08:20
Unit193It is, LTS users just aren't offered until the first point release.  It's still far from "devel", that's kenetic.08:21
nshireah I see08:23
nshireso like once 22.04.1 is released it will be pushed to lts users?08:24
nshireaug 04 in particular08:24
nshireI've gone 20.04 > 21.xx > 22.04 on the same night on too many machines to still be making this mistake08:25
Unit193I already jumped two servers to Jammy, myself. :P08:27
nshireI should have used do-release-upgrade -d to start out with08:27
Unit193Eh...  Also leave the config file set to lts, don't adapt it to 'normal'08:28
nshiremachine I'm working on currently is just a test vm08:28
nshireshould have just wiped it from scratch08:29
nshirestarted with a disk image from 2019 for some reason08:29
nshireI have 500/500 mbit so download wouldn't have been an issue08:29
Unit193Eh, my server was installed with '12.04.3 LTS "Precise Pangolin"', it's now on Debian bullseye.  I never re-installed because it's too much effort and I'm lazy.  Anywho, the LTS upgrade should be offered soon, not right after .1 is released because they'll want to ensure the upgrade path has a few bumps as possible.08:31
gordonjcpUnit193: yeah, it's probably time to reinstall that ;-)08:36
Unit193Not really, no.  I keep it clean.08:37
gordonjcpUnit193: you have no way of knowing08:45
grumblyhello08:46
Unit193gordonjcp: "No way" is not accurate actually, you certainly have hints.  You can check if any files are marked as obsolete by dpkg, you can use debsums/dpkg --audit (or is that --verify), dpkg -S on the system and check for odd unowned files, etc.08:46
grumbly'I am struggling to install mycroft-core.  i am trying to run the script from the git but it fails when it attempts to install pulseaudio because it says pulseaudio:i386 is installed08:47
grumblyhow do I disable the i386 arch, remove that and install the correct pulseaudio?08:48
grumblyi am at my wits end, because I cant even verify that pulseaudio:i386 is even installed08:49
gordonjcpgrumbly: what does dpkg -l pulseaudio* say?08:50
Unit193Well, you could `dpkg --remove-architecture` but you'll want to ensure you have nothing from there installed first,  dpkg -l |grep :i386  should help.08:50
gordonjcpUnit193: sure, but why go to all that effort when you can just reinstall?08:50
Unit193gordonjcp: Re-installs are effort?  Eh, it works, why fix it when it's not broken?08:51
grumblyi have more than just pulseaudio08:52
gordonjcpUnit193: well, upgrading from an EOL distro is a pain in the backside08:53
Unit193I've...never done that, so I guess I'll just have to trust you on that.08:53
grumblyand in fact pulse audio isnt even in the list08:54
Unit193Ah, I did that once years ago with fluxbuntu in VM as an experiment.08:54
gordonjcpUnit193: what's running on your server anyway?09:01
Unit193gordonjcp: Various things really, httpd of course, postfix (outgoing only), some IRC things, DNS related stuff, etc.09:02
PrimalHowdy09:03
Unit193Hello.09:04
gordonjcpUnit193: docker and good backups :-)09:07
Primalwe have plenty of good options for text/paste, but do we have any good options for image hosting?09:07
Primalsomething that's not imgur :D09:07
Unit193gordonjcp: Sure that's one way to go.09:08

Drew_NeilsonHow do I format a hard drive from the terminal? I'm not trying to split it into partitions. I'm watching a video on this but I've hit an obstacle.10:42
Drew_Neilsonthe video says to do:10:42
Drew_Neilsonsudo gdisk /dev/sde10:42
Drew_Neilsonand I get "problem opening /dev/sde for reading! Error is 2. The specified file does not exist!"10:43
EriC^^Drew_Neilson: type 'sudo parted -ls | nc termbin.com 9999' paste the link it gives you here10:43
EriC^^( to upload a paste of parted's output)10:43
Drew_Neilsonhttps://termbin.com/4hqx10:46
EriC^thanks10:46
EriC^you're trying to format the 1000gb hdd?10:46
EriC^right now it shows only 2 hdd's, 1 250gb which has ubuntu and a 1000gb that has windows10:47
Drew_Neilsonyes, the 1 TB drive10:49
EriC^Drew_Neilson: type 'sudo cgdisk /dev/sdb'10:49
EriC^you can delete/add partitions there (the partition table will stay gpt) and finally write the table, after that you'll want to run 'sudo partprobe /dev/sdb' so the kernel reloads the new table10:50
clarkkDoes anyone here use pipewire instead of pulseaudio, and what is your experience/opinion of it?10:50
EriC^Drew_Neilson: also make sure nothing is mounted of that disk right now, "mount | grep sdb" should give an idea of what's mounted right now10:50
mohaI installed Nextcloud by choosing it during Ubuntu22.04 installation. Then it needs a tool named `coturn` to work properly for videochatting. But coturn is not available in 22.04 repositories!10:52

Drew_Neilsondoes Ubuntu have media libraries? Along Windows' pictures library, videos library, music library, and documents library.13:17
Drew_Neilson*Along the lines of13:17
Drew_NeilsonOr libraries in general.13:17
cbreakDrew_Neilson: it has a desktop wallpaper library13:18
cbreakbut if you want videos, music, ... you might want to consider online sources, like youtube or what ever.13:18
cbreakubuntu's an OS, not a music store13:18
Drew_NeilsonReason I'm asking: I'm going to move a whole lot of audio and video files from my Windows PC over to my Ubuntu Server and I want to make sure that I organize those files properly.13:19
cbreakah, you already have the files13:19
Drew_NeilsonThat's why I'm asking if Ubuntu has something akin to libraries13:19
cbreakthere are probably hundreds of solutions... For photos, for example there's DarkTable13:20
Drew_NeilsonTo be clear, I'm talking about libraries that come with the OS, not something that has to be downloaded separately.13:21
Drew_NeilsonLike how with Windows, the Music library is simply there. You don't have to install it separately13:21
cbreakfor audio / video files, you can use something like VideoLanClient on a client, or something like plex or kodi on a server13:22
cbreakDrew_Neilson: ah. Ubuntu has directories13:22
cbreakpersonally, I organize all media in the file system13:22
cbreakwith directories, on different zfs pools13:22
cbreak(Because I have all the data local and don't need a server)13:23
Drew_NeilsonI've actually installed Emby server on my Ubuntu Server. I just want to make sure that when I move the files, I move them to the proper places. I don't yet know whether Emby has a function for moving the files.13:23
cbreakubuntu has no mandatory location for media files13:24
cbreakif I remember correctly, emby was configurable in where it searches for them13:24

ZeroDamageIs there a workable way to update a 20.10 instance of Ubuntu to 22.04?  The repositories are dead at this point.  Would rather not blow it away if i can help it.13:42
leftyfb!eolupgrade | ZeroDamage13:43
ubottuZeroDamage: End-Of-Life is when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop. Make sure to update Ubuntu before it goes EOL so you get updates promptly for newly-discovered security vulnerabilities. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOL and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more info. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades13:43
lotuspsychjeZeroDamage: risky to upgrade from eol releases due security reasons aswell, see !usn13:43
whiskey76Ubuntu Mate 22.04, no matter what I set power management to my screen turns off every 10-15 minutes. Is there another setting for this? ty13:44
whiskey76I should clarify, every 10-15 minutes of inactivity.13:45
guivercZeroDamage, if it's a desktop system, I'd likely 'upgrade via re-install'; 20.10 had one upgrade path - to 21.04; if you re-use existing partitions & don't format; it'll note your manually installed packages; erase system directories; install; then install the noted packages if available in Ubuntu repositories for the new release..13:50
guivercnote:  if server apps are used (which often store conf etc files in system directories); you'll need to restore data; why I mentioned desktop system13:50
guivercwhiskey76, check you don't have a screensaver blanking the screen after the time interval it blanks at (ie. not just power management)13:56
guiverc(ie. mate-screensaver)13:57
whiskey76guiverc: thanks, i checked Screensaver and it's set to regard the pc as idle after 2 hours.13:57
goddardso when launching plasma with GDM it doesn't start ssh-agent for some reason14:38
goddardI can manually start ssh-agent, but it would be nice if it was done on login14:39
goddardand ssh-agent being launched from 1 terminal isn't exactly great as even things like dolphin can't access it14:39
goddardany ideas?14:40
goddardits so funny because everything works perfectly when launching plasma with GDM, but SDDM launching plasma scaling is off.  Also SDDMs defaults are multiple monitors isn't great.14:43

tomreynfwiw, on an unmodified ubuntu 22.04 installation, while logged into gnome-shell, you have no *ssh* processes running14:47
Drew_NeilsonI sort of understand that my personal directory on my Ubuntu Server would be at14:48
Drew_Neilson-   /home/Drew14:48
Drew_Neilsonbut, since I want to put my media files (music, videos, etc.) on a separate drive--one that isn't the boot drive--but in folders that are accessible only by me--then how would that work, where the partition's name is     media    ?14:50
Drew_Neilson- /home/Drew/dev/media?14:50
Drew_Neilsonor for music, /home/Drew/dev/media/music ?14:50
ograDrew_Neilson, /media/Drew/<devicename>14:50
ogra(where <devicename> is the label)14:51
Drew_Neilsonwait... /media (the first part) is the partition?14:51
ograno, the location where things get automounted14:51
Drew_Neilson(a very loud confused crickets sound should play)14:52
tomreynthat's just a fixed name which happens to be the same you used14:52
ograthe last part (<devicename>) is the partition ... usually the label14:52
Drew_Neilsonso then it'd be14:53
Drew_Neilson- /media/Drew/media ?14:53
tomreynpossibly so, an    ls /media/Drew    should tell (while it's mounted)14:53
tomreynyou could also use the graphical file browser to go there14:54
Drew_NeilsonIt's Ubuntu Server, so no GUI14:54
ograif your device partition is labeled "media" it would be /media/Drew/media, yeah14:54

Drew_NeilsonI have a 2017 Surface Pro, my daily driver that runs Windows 10. I've installed WSL. Next,...14:55
ograoh, thats completely different then ... you should ask in #windows-wsl ...14:56
Drew_NeilsonI have an old desktop PC that I've installed a small (250 GB) SSD in and a 1 TB HDD in. I installed Ubuntu Server on the SSD.14:56
ograkay14:56
Drew_NeilsonI just formatted the HDD using this chat's instructions about an hour ago.14:56
Drew_NeilsonPurpose of putting Ubuntu Server on this old PC: to use it as a media server, and possibly for other specialized functions. Home Assistant, maybe using it like a router, etc.14:57
ograDrew_Neilson, https://askubuntu.com/questions/683034/how-to-automatically-mount-usb-flash-drive-at-startup ... try these instructions14:58
Drew_NeilsonI put Server on it instead of plain Desktop because I wanted there to be as little overhead as possible, because as a media server, transcribing video from one format to another might already be more than it is capable of.14:58
Drew_NeilsonBut the consequence is that I'm diving into the deep end of the pool without learning how to swim first!14:59
ograyeah, the answer above with the green checkmark should get you going14:59

TopaHello. Somebody here is continuing to misgender me after repeatedly telling them which pronouns I would like them to use. What can I do about it?16:18
lotuspsychjeTopa: #ubuntu-ops for such matters16:19
ravageor use /ignore16:19
Topa@ravage why should I ignore them? I want this to be a trans safe space.16:20
TopaThey're hurting my feelings.16:20
MaNa2khi guys, so i ended up installing ubuntu due to bigger community.16:22
MaNa2kwas wondering something16:22
MaNa2kso i have connected to my linux machine terminal via ssh, and was wondering, if i start a "kestral" via ssh, then the ssh connection dies for any reason, will the kestral keep running? or will that terminate as well ?16:22

oerheksTopa, join #libera for that, as your issue did not happen in this channel, right?16:26
oerheksthis is ubuntu technical support solely.16:26
luna__not sure its the networks fault some people on the network is idiots16:27
confuseusTopa: find a shrink to help you deal with the feelings. literally all of the internet has some people who either intentionally or unintentially misgender others. i think you should not be affected by a computer that much...unless it was physical people in which case you deal with them directly.16:27
nino_hey, after I install ubuntu, do I still need to install the graphics drivers for intel like windows???16:27
luna__confuseus: computer people is also real people16:28

goddardwell i fixed the issue17:31
goddardgdm config files really should add an entry for plasma if it gets installed17:32
goddardcan i submit a patch for that some how?17:32
cbreakyou're not using sddm for plasma?17:50
cbreakwell, either way, after installing the plasma desktop, it should show up in any of the display managers17:51
nshiresorry about earlier18:13
jhutchinsnshire: What did you do?18:29
goddardcbreak: the issues isn't with it showing up18:30
goddardthe issue is that unlike sddm which also tries to make sure Gnome related things are setup properly GDM doesn't care or even try in their configuration18:30
goddardthis is a pretty easy fix and those config files should be added18:30
goddardthat way if you use GDM or SDDM both Plasma and Gnome DEs will launch properly18:31

nshireI just updated to 22.04 and now I'm on a busybox prompt18:39
nshirebiggest thing seems to be "alert, uuid=xxxx does not exist! dropping to a shell"18:40
nshirehttps://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/499810206520442880/997935443498766407/unknown.png18:41
Unit193Odd, uuid shouldn't change unless you change disks.  You can chroot in, update /etc/fstab then update grub and your initramfs though and see if that fixes things.18:41
nshireshould still be mounted to the same virtual hard disk18:42
nshireyep18:42
nshiremaybe I'll power cycle it18:42
Unit193Has the host vbox seen a change recently?18:42
nshireit hasn't18:42
nshirewell18:43
oerheksboot that vm in recovery mode, and fix updates again?18:43
nshireI switched it to hyper-v from KVM for the virtualization interface yesterday, but it worked fine across several 20.04 boots with that setting18:43
oerheksoh, now the important details.. why switch to hyperv?18:44
nshireI'm under the impression it's faster on a host machine that's currently running hyper v18:44
nshireit did seem to perform better18:44
Unit193Neat.18:45
nshireacpi reset brought me to the same thing18:48
nshiredoubt it will do anyhting but ill switch back to kvm18:48
Unit193Yeah if you had OK boots in the meantime, it's unlikely to be related.18:49
cbreaknshire: how about commenting out the offending line?18:50
cbreakor is it important?18:50
cbreakif it is, find out what the new id is with blkid and update it18:50
Unit193(Or switch to it by name instead.)18:51
cbreakuuids are usually more erliable18:51
nshireok switching to kvm seems to have helped, it has at least reached the promontory splash screen18:51

VIAif this isnt the right place please link me the correct one ty!18:53
Unit193cbreak: Yeah if you have hardware that might move, sure.  If you're likely to clone it, or it's virtual, sometimes it can change.18:53
nshireswitching to kvm seems to have fixed it, however it is running quite slow18:57

VIAhow can i create a shortcut that open the console in a specific location ?20:45
VIAor a script (bash?) for tahat matter. infact bash or something similar would be preferrable since it would allow me to also call a function or program in that specific directory ( if what i understood so far is correct)20:46
bencc1is there a reason why ubuntu stopped updating deb packages?20:49
bencc1I keep running into old packages in the repositories20:49
bencc1for example20:49
bencc1https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=nginx20:49

Drew_NeilsonI'm connecting to Ubuntu Server remotely via PuTTY and I'm logged in, but it's not letting me copy a folder because apparently I don't have permission. (It's my server.)23:10
