MrMobiusthe assembler program NASM which I use has apparently been updated with a bug fix I need but sudo apt update doesnt find the new version. how and when would Ubuntu pick up the new version and update it?03:16
leftyfb!latest | MrMobius03:17
ubottuMrMobius: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa.03:17
MrMobiusleftyfb: fair enough. if it's a minor bug like this though,  will I need to wait for the next Ubuntu version?03:18
leftyfbMrMobius: I would first check with Debian to see where they are at03:18
MrMobiusleftyfb: there is a list online somewhere I can check?03:19
leftyfbsorry, I don't know off the top of my head and in the middle of something right now so I can't google it03:20

thomas25i want to run two https servers on different local ports (naturally) but i want to have port 443 for both of them externally. so i need a proxy in front of them that can proxy to different local ports based on host. what's the tool for that?06:06
thomas25nginx maybe?06:06
thomas25dafaq happened to nginx, it looks like a non foss software now06:12
arraybolt3thomas25: nginx is in the Main repository in Ubuntu 22.10 at least, which consists of Canonical-maintainable software (mostly, if not all, FOSS) as far as I know.06:17
arraybolt3You might be looking at nginx.com rather than nginx.org - the two appear to be related but nginx itself is still FOSS, the things that nginx.com had for sale look different.06:19
Bashing-om!info nginx jammy06:19
ubottunginx (1.18.0-6ubuntu14.3, jammy): small, powerful, scalable web/proxy server. In component main, is optional. Built by nginx. Size 4 kB / 49 kB06:19
arraybolt3Or it might be one of those "the software is free, but you can pay for support" things.06:19
thomas25it looked more like some important features are available for paid version kind of thing06:20
thomas25but now i'm looking at the foss versions docs, and it looks like that's not the case -- at least not to the extend i thought at first06:20
arraybolt3There's a lot of stuff out there where there's fancy enterprise features that most people have absolutely no need for that have a paywall, yeah it looks like that's what you're looking at.06:21
arraybolt3Probably most of those features are things that could be implemented yourself but a big business would rather throw money at someone else in order to make it easy.06:21
ducasseMrMobius: debian lists package versions on their site, you could also look for a third party repo08:23

gordonjcpis there a way to permanently disable all system sounds?10:30
lotuspsychj3gordonjcp: you can lookup tweaks for your system with dconf-editor if you like10:31
gordonjcplotuspsychj3: o_O10:33
gordonjcplotuspsychj3: there's no user-selectable "turn all sounds off" option?10:33
lotuspsychj3gordonjcp: there's a value for event-sounds10:34
lotuspsychj3gordonjcp: there's also a disable-sound-output10:35
lotuspsychj3experiment a bit with the values10:35
gordonjcplotuspsychj3: okay, event-sounds is set to false, it's still making silly noises10:37

gordonjcpit's particularly frustrating because I'm trying to listen to very quiet sounds on headphones, and then I get my ears blasted out by silly noises10:40
lotuspsychj3gordonjcp: sounds more like you got sound issues, then wanting to disable default system sounds?10:41
gordonjcplotuspsychj3: sound works normally when it's not making silly noises10:44
gordonjcplotuspsychj3: sound is fundamentally broken on Linux these days because of pulseaudio10:44
gordonjcpbut that's a separate issue10:44

ChunkyzBluesKaj: what time will you disappear today?14:06
tractelimonanyone can help me with safeboot on ? for ubuntu 20.04 LTS ? I try to integrate with mokutils but when I put safe-boot-on I recive this error https://i.imgur.com/UhXgJDV.jpg . thx14:07
ChunkyzAnd he's gone. Why oh why..........14:11
arraybolt3Chunkyz: Could we keep the room on-topic?14:13
arraybolt3tractelimon: Looking...14:13
arraybolt3tractelimon: OK, so what exactly did you do to get this error to appear? What does "try to integrate with mokutils" mean?14:14
ChunkyzYes arraybolt3, stop the greeting a support channel then disappearing and your problem is solved.14:14
arraybolt3Describe in detail what you did to get here, that will make it easy to fix things.14:14
arraybolt3Chunkyz: You are known for being somewhat of a troll, just fyi, while BluesKaj is a long-time trusted member. If anyone's looking very bad right at this moment, it's you. Stop it.14:15
ChunkyzI'm not a troll. Try again.14:15
ChunkyzI've been saying hi to prove how useless greeting a support channel is.14:16
tractelimonarraybolt3: in BIOS I have safe boot on, and I get this error. If I put safe-boot to off, Ubuntu boot normaly but still have a problem with integrity: Problem loading X.509 certificate -6514:16
ChunkyzBut I'm the troll.  K mate.14:16
arraybolt3tractelimon: The bit about integrity probably doesn't matter, that's a well-known error that doesn't affect anything.14:16
arraybolt3tractelimon: As for the secure boot error, are you able to boot a live ISO with Secure Boot enabled?14:17
ChunkyzAnyway 🤪 guess I'll just block you and that troll BluesKaj. No loss.14:17
tractelimonarraybolt3: I'm not sure, and in this moment I can't verify, but if secure boot are off, is not a problem ?14:17
arraybolt3tractelimon: Secure Boot doesn't really add that much security to a system, but it can be somewhat desirable.14:18
arraybolt3It's very odd that you're getting this error though. Did you try to change the Secure Boot keys on the system?14:18
BluesKajI've defeated secure boot for ages without any negative effects, tractelimon14:20
tractelimonarraybolt3: I'm trying but I have no succseful and I get this error with security violation14:20
arraybolt3tractelimon: Has this system ever booted Ubuntu with Secure Boot enabled before?14:21
tractelimonBluesKaj: ok, I understand, so I don't need to have problem if secure-boot are disabled14:21
tractelimonarraybolt3: I don't remeber14:21
arraybolt3tractelimon: To be fair, I'd personally just disable Secure Boot and be happy. If you really want or need it enabled, though, I'd check in your BIOS settings for anything about a "3rd party CA Secure Boot key" or something to that effect, and if it's disabled, enable it and see if that helps.14:22
arraybolt3(I don't remember what the setting is actually called but it was something like that.)14:23
tractelimonarraybolt3: ok. thank you very much, right now I will do a reboot to check if I have some with 3rd party ....14:23
kovitalhi, is there a way to force a fixed size window that does not fit my screen to the size i need, with openbox? for krita window.14:23
kovitalor another tool maybe.14:24
tomreyntractelimon: others reporting the "Problem loading X.509 certificate -65" message (which is benign while you're not using secureboot) found that this can be primarily due to the following causes: (a) buggy certificates supplied with uefi firmware -> see if a 'bios' update helps, (b) partially broken file system -> run fsck on all the root file system / (while it is not mounted writable, so from !recovery or a live booted system)14:28
arraybolt3tomreyn: I see that message on every Ubuntu system I have, I thought X.509 was related to networking or something? I could be totally wrong here.14:29
BluesKajbtw arraybolt3m thanks for your positive comment :-)14:31
arraybolt3BluesKaj: :)14:34
tomreynarraybolt3: X.509 is just a tech standard describing a data format which e.g. cyptographic certificates can be stored in.14:34
tomreynSSL certificates (https / lock icon in web browser) also use this standard14:35

FKAShinobiDuring an update, I was asked what to do about changed config files. I selected to view the changes in debconf but it did not show the changes and kept the original config. Is there a way to see the new proposed config for this version in case I want to modify it?15:48
arraybolt3There's probably an easier way to do this, but you could try looking through the source package for the configuration file in question.15:54
arraybolt3I wonder if dpkg-reconfigure could manage this though.15:55
arraybolt3hmm, dpkg-reconfigure doesn't look like the right tool, so probably nevermind there.15:55
alkisgFKAShinobi: sudo find /etc -name '*dpkg*' ==> might show dpkg-new etc files with the new contents,16:09
alkisgif not, see https://askubuntu.com/questions/66533/how-can-i-restore-configuration-files16:09
alkisgSo e.g. `sudo mv /etc/conf /etc/conf.bak`, and then `sudo apt install --reinstall -o Dpkg::Options::="--force-confask,confnew,confmiss" <package-name>`, will give you the new conf, and you'll be able to compare16:10
tomreynsudo find /etc -name '*.dpkg-*' -o -name '*.ucf-*'16:10
alkisgHmm I think matrix might have converted some * into italics... the initial command was `sudo find /etc -name '*dpkg*'`16:10

tomreynhttps://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/jammy/man1/ucf.1.html16:19
FKAShinobithat makes so much sense16:19
tomreyn"-dist" means it's version of the file that shipped with an updated package (at some point)16:19
tomreyn* *a* version16:21
FKAShinobitomreyn: that's interesting because the dist version has my shares defined in it, but 2 comments I added were not part of it. The comments were for server min version and an explanation for that option.16:23
FKAShinobiEither way - the only diffs were my additional comments. All my setup shows the same between the files.16:24

flataerth_hi20:47
flataerth_anyone here for help?20:47
flataerth_so thers who actually aren't sell phone addicts on here?20:47
tomreynflataerth_: do you have an ubuntu support question then?20:52
flataerth_yes, i just dowloaded pidjin IM20:52
flataerth_i need to subscribe to the indiviudal program outside of pidjin to log on?20:53
flataerth_like make a gadu or IRC account to use pidjin?20:53
flataerth_then i kan IM people with goolge talks?20:53
tomreynpidgin supports different chat and communication protocols. many if not most will require you to sign up to use the communication network and get credentials you can then enter in pidgin.20:54
tomreyni think google talk is no more, but there is probably some follow-up service (possibly using a different protocol)20:55
flataerth_but once i log on to pidjin with irc or kadu, i can then IM people with other IM programs there?20:56
tomreynnote there is also the #pidgin channel here on this IRC network, which may be in a better position to support pidgin20:56
flataerth_thanks tom. so i can't kreate a log in just with pidjin account?20:57
tomreynif those other IM programs support the same communictation network / protocol, yes, otherwise no20:57
flataerth_thanks for that, can anyone make a channell here? and who runs this Xcat? linux mint?20:57
flataerth_who's the owner of xchat or main manager?20:57
tomreynxchat is a software, a client for the IRC communication protocol. you are chatting here on one of several IRC networks, called Libera. This channel is about Ubuntu support.20:58
flataerth_so i can add anyone on pidjin that uses a program listed on pidjin like irc, google, kadu, jabbar etc20:59
tomreynThere's also a #hexchat channel here (heychat is a "fork" of XChat, which i think is no longer under development)20:59
flataerth_so IRC is for windows too? not just ubuntu or linux?20:59
flataerth_ubuntu is part of linux? or vice versa?20:59
tomreynonly once you've registered accounts on thses comunication networks. IRC is special in that it doesn't require an account to get started.21:00
flataerth_so the username i use here on IRC, i can just put on pidjin?21:00
tomreynUbuntu is a Linux distribution, one of the many.21:00
flataerth_ok thanks, so linux mint is not part of ubuntu?21:00
flataerth_it's also a linx distribution?21:01
flataerth_are yu a robot human tom? jk21:01
tomreynif pidgin supports irc (i think it does) then you can just connect to the libera network using the same nickname there.21:01
tomreyni'm a human. are you actually using ubuntu?21:01
flataerth_Linux mint Mate21:01
flataerth_19.3 i think21:01
tomreynokay, then you're really in the wrong place to get support here21:02
flataerth_my graphics card doesn't work well with ubuntu21:02
flataerth_for some reason21:02
flataerth_nvidia gforce forget the version21:02
tomreynif you want to revisit that some time, feel free to come back here, and ask for support with it21:02
flataerth_well i don't need ubuntu support21:02
flataerth_i can run most stuff on ubuntu on minit21:02
flataerth_yu helpd me with the pidjin stuff tho21:02
tomreynright, so we're really off-topic for this channel21:02
flataerth_well pidjin was on topic21:03
flataerth_no?21:03
flataerth_i'm on the ubuntu server now21:03
tomreynwould have bene on-topic if you ran it on ubuntu21:03
tomreynyou can /join #libera for help with irc21:03

ubottuThe Ubuntu Desktop ISO is a "Live" image, which can be run without altering existing files on your hard drive. Especially useful for testing your hardware's compatibility, it also includes an install option.22:53
leftyfbguilll31: that's what backups are for. I am not suggesting you upgrade since that will take exponentially longer and I don't have a lot of confidence it won't result in more problems.
