enigma9o7[m]Ya that's a useful setting.  I want the screen off, but the laptop to stay on.  Sometimes cuz I'm walking to an other room.  Sometimes cuz I'm using an external monitor.  I only want the lid to control the screen itself on/off.00:03

Masterphi57I have an HDD that I used with USB, now it's connected via SATA. Ubuntu seems to auto-mount it to /media/user. If I add the hdd to fstab, will it stop auto-mounting?00:43
sarnoldyeah I think I'd expect /etc/fstab to take precedence00:44
enigma9o7[m]Yeah.  Its probably your file manager or desktop or something mounting it.00:44
Masterphi57what even makes ubuntu decide to auto-mount things?00:44
enigma9o7[m]Most file managers have a settingfor it.00:44
sarnoldI think the gui desktop things drive udisks2 to do the work00:44
Masterphi57I'm just using the default "Files"00:46
oerheksit actually doe not mount it, it just shows as result from a scan00:48
Masterphi57mmmm I assumed it was mounted. I'll add it to fstab and reboot00:49
Masterphi57thx :)00:49
enigma9o7[m]and then when you click on it, it mounts it00:49
enigma9o7[m]in /meda00:49

lotuspsychjemurmel: what about earlier ubuntu releases?04:08
lotuspsychjei was reading this arch thread about downgrading xorg-server not sure if its your case though04:09
murmellotuspsychje: hm good question never tried it. as I went directly to 22.04 (beta at the time)04:11
lotuspsychjetry a 20.04 perhaps murmel04:11
murmelI wonder if I should even go 16.04 (i know it's eol) but at least thats whats supported by dell (back in the day)04:12
lotuspsychjei think i saw certified wiki for your model to 18.04 murmel04:15
lotuspsychjei would go experiment around a bit with releases04:16
murmellotuspsychje: the ubuntu page doesn't even list my laptop04:17

murmelwhat is this list then? https://ubuntu.com/certified/laptops04:17
murmellotuspsychje: but yes, no list has my laptop04:20
lotuspsychjeallright, well try some releases anyway murmel did you made your bug ID yet?04:21
murmelno not yet, as I can't post anything except, that it crashes04:21
murmelbut will definitely test out some more releases. I guess 16.04 and then upgrading from there04:22

murmelso i am out of luck seems like04:29
lotuspsychjedoesnt mean dell says one version, another cant work04:30
murmelhm, dell doesn't even offer any isos anymore, so I guess i start with 18.0404:30
enigma9o7[m]why aren't you starting with current?04:31
murmelenigma9o7[m]: because it doesn't work on 22.0404:32

alkisgHrm. VirtualBox run a jammy VM, dpkg -V => errors. Losetup/chroot into the same VM, dpkg -V => no errors. Wth, virtualbox in jammy is losing bits and bytes?! :D08:40
* alkisg tests with oracle's vbox instead of the one from the repositories...08:41
EriC^^alkisg: what's the error you're getting?08:43
alkisgEriC^^: about 5-10 corrupted files, random each time08:44
alkisgThey're not actually corrupted; if I chroot and dpkg -V, they are fine08:44
alkisgSo vbox is corrupting disk reads or ram contents or something08:45
EriC^^nice, TIL about dpkg -V08:46
alkisgdebsums -s is a bit better, but dpkg is preinstalled08:47
EriC^^yeah, did not know dpkg can do that out of the box though, pretty neat08:47
EriC^^no idea about the vm issue though, odd08:47
lotuspsychjealkisg: i found virtualbox pretty laggy overal compared to a VM in gnome boxes on jammy08:51
alkisgDisk access does seem rather slower than it was in all the previous versions08:52
lotuspsychjealkisg: cant see something similar reported yet; https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/virtualbox/+bugs?orderby=importance&start=009:01
alkisgInstalled vitrualbox from oracle, and without rebooting, dpkg -V is now clean inside the VM. Which means that vbox from the repositories is dangerously broken, it corrupts data.09:04
lotuspsychjei tryed a jammy iso on jammy virtualbox and it felt real sluggish with even no reach to desktop stuff09:06

varaindemianshould I download the deb package for Virtualbxo from their website or manually add the repo?16:10
varaindemianhttps://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads16:11
tomreynthe latter16:12
varaindemiantomreyn: why?16:12
tomreynyou'll get a free upgrade path, don't need to worry about vulnerabilities so much16:13
tomreynplus you get to easily verify the authenticity of what you downloaded.16:14
varaindemianisn't `dpkg  -i` going to add the repo?16:14
tomreynmaybe, depends on whether the package you install this way also installs an apt repository configuiration16:14
tomreyni don't think it does, but i can be wrong there.16:14
rfmit doesn't.16:15
tomreynnote that there are other options besides virtualbox (but then you did not ask about this)16:16
rfmthe other advantage of adding the repo and installining with apt or apt get instead of dpkg is it will automatically run down the dependencies16:17
varaindemianI see16:17
varaindemianwhato ther options?16:17
varaindemiantomreyn: ^16:18
tomreynvaraindemian: qemu-kvm, with one of tits frontends16:18
tomreynvirt-manager or gnome-boxes for graphical UIs.16:19
tomreynthere are also web and CLI frontends16:20
varaindemianReplace virtualbox-6.1 by virtualbox-6.0 or virtualbox-5.2 to install the latest VirtualBox 6.0 or 5.2 build.16:21
varaindemianthis is confusing16:21
rfmvaraindemian, it's telling you how to run an older version if you need to, for example 5.2 was the last version that ran without hardware virtualization16:24
rfmvaraindemian, unless your hardware is ancient use the latest release (6.1)16:25
XoloXSo I get that this is not the correct place to ask for help. But it's the best place I know. It's (I think) not even Linux related. The thing is I got a sunscreen and I lost the remote. Is there some way to bring it back in without remote? It has (i had lol) a Somfy remote with 3 buttons on the front and a small reset button on the back. The remote16:26

sm_I did do that16:33
sm_But part of the applications are in dark and rest are this really bright white16:34
sm_Even menus are like that16:34
tomreynmaybe the theme you have is not compatible to the very version of gnome-shell you are running now?16:34
sm_Gnome shell is version 42.416:34
tomreynand your theme is compatible to?16:35
sm_Even when I use inbuilt themes like Yaru. I'm getting the same results16:35
sm_The theme is Dracula. it should be compatible. It was updated 3 days ago\16:36

tripp4hhi! i found this bogus site about converting a jpeg and a .mp3 file to a video format, to upload to youtube: https://www.zyxware.com/articles/5693/how-to-upload-an-audio-file-to-youtube20:00
tripp4hcould you help with ffmpeg, what command line to use to do this conversion?20:01

bobsmopsjhutchins: also am I using this "mention" feature correctly?20:15
jhutchinsbobsmops: Not sure about "mention", most clients allow you to start typing a nick and then hit tab to complete it, a nick followed by a colon (:) will often highlight your post for that nick's user.20:16
enigma9o7[m]What kinda mention feature are you trying to use?20:17
jhutchinsbobsmops: Your messages to me highlighted here.20:17
rfmtripp4h, you're getting that 404 because hirsute (21.04) is EOL20:17

enigma9o7[m]Ah ok.  Neat.20:18

wileyanyone know what happened to cpuburn and if there's some alternative I should be using to do a hardware stress-test?20:27
jhutchinstripp4h: Gotta read the man pages and the web pages.  The command you want is  "convert".20:27
jhutchinstripp4h: I think it can be as simple as convert foo.jpg foo.mp420:28
tripp4hjhutchins: i also want to include audio in the video20:28
jhutchinstripp4h: It can be a lot more complicated, and so can adding audio.20:28
jhutchinstripp4h: So you're trying to get a still picture with a sound track?  I'm sure it can be done, but it's beyond my knowledge.20:29
jhutchinsI don't know how you get duration on the image.20:30
jhutchinsHmm, maybe convert the sound file to a video format, then merge the graphic?20:30
tripp4hi would want to do that with ffmpeg.20:31

tripp4hjhutchins: cool, thanks! maybe that'll help.20:33
jhutchinstripp4h: Let us know how it goes!20:33
enigma9o7[m]joining irc should not be a hardship.  please elaborate and perhaps that can be resolved.  It should be a joy...20:34
tripp4hi hated to use some of the video editor software, they had bugs and the conversion took like an hour or more. i have a slow computer. iirc the software crashed before the conversion got finished.20:34
gordonjcptripp4h: nightmare20:34
gordonjcptripp4h: ffmpeg ought to be a good solution for this20:34
tripp4hat least i didn't get a good result of it. tried two or three different software.20:35
wileyFWIW, after some more digging, it seems like both stress and stress-ng are reasonably substitutes for cpuburn20:35
gordonjcptripp4h: the absolute best video editor on Linux is DaVinci Resolve, but it needs quite a chunky graphics card20:35

tomreynThomasCrown2: could it be that you installed the "distro-info" python module on the system through pip or similar?22:37
ThomasCrown2tomreyn, I am not sure.22:38
tomreynThomasCrown2: or, maybe i should ask more generally: did you modify the system-wide python installation?22:38
tomreynbecause this looks like it a lot22:38
ThomasCrown2tomreyn, I don't believe so.22:39
ThomasCrown2tomreyn, distro-info is showing up in the 'pip list'22:40
ThomasCrown2should I remove it?22:40
tomreynwhich version?22:40
tomreynyou can     sudo python3 -m pip uninstall distro-info && sudo apt reinstall python3-distro-info22:41
tomreynbut with your latest output i think it's not just this module that's broken22:41
ThomasCrown2tomreyn, completed22:42
tomreyn<tomreyn> ThomasCrown2: do a full "apt update" and "apt full-upgrade" before you do the release upgrade22:42
tomreynhad you done this?22:42
ThomasCrown2tomreyn, yes I had performed those commands.22:44
tomreyndid they return warnings or error messages?22:44
tomreynwere packages installed?22:44
ThomasCrown2tomreyn, I have ran the update process again after uninstall and reinstall of "sudo python3 -m pip uninstall distro-info && sudo apt reinstall python3-distro-info" and it seems to be working now.22:45

tomreynit might, or you might run into the next problem after the no-way-back point22:45
ThomasCrown2tomreyn, thank you very much for the help through this process. What lead you to the fix of "sudo python3 -m pip uninstall distro-info && sudo apt reinstall python3-distro-info" ?22:45
tomreynother people reporting similar errors after they had installed, through pipi, python modules globally on their system. something you should never do.22:46
tomreyn*pip22:46
tomreynyou can do it for the restricted user, you can do it in a venv, you can do it in a chroot, but don't do it on the system level, because key parts of ubuntu come as python scripts, and need to be those very versions to be compatible to one another.22:48
ThomasCrown2tomreyn, so never install pip modules through sudo?22:48
tomreynright, there's no use case for this anyways22:48
ThomasCrown2tomreyn, thank you for the information and the help. I really appreciate it.22:49
tomreynif you haven't started on the upgrade, yet, i would also recommend reading release notes for the target release, cleaning up apt source, uninstalling third party apt packages and unknown source / unknown version / no-upgrade-path / "foreign" apt packages22:51
tomreynthe latter you can list with apt list --installed | grep ',local\]$' | nc termbin.com 999922:51
