| detly | I'm maintaining and migrating some old build systems for embedded Linux distributions, and was surprised to see that Python 2.x (a host build-dependency for eg. older buildroot systems) is now completely removed from the repositories. Is there a low-maintenance way I might be able to install it (eg. a reputable PPA that people commonly use)? | 04:44 |
| detly | (Removed in 23.04) | 04:44 |
| rbox | pyenv might be able to install python2 | 04:50 |
| detly | ah, that would be like renv I'm guessing? | 04:50 |

| detly | haha I just went to add the pyenv stuff to ~/.bashrc and for some reason, my .bashrc ends with "export PATH=$PATH" | 04:59 |

| michael_ | ok | 05:15 |
| NickH | So... the work has already been done? | 05:16 |
| detly | NickH: for the buildroot, sure. for our code that builds within it to depend on these future build systems, no. | 05:17 |

| overclockin | ohhhhh thanks u!!! i am step 5 on job interview for canical so excited | 06:27 |
| detly | ahhh goody, I need the python 2.7 development resources as well and the buildroot can't find the pyenv-managed libraries | 07:13 |
| overclockin | python 2.7 discountinue 2020 | 07:14 |
| detly | yes, this is a version of the build system from 2018 | 07:15 |
| weedmic | detly: you need 2.7 because you cannot use python3? and are using a version of ubuntu that has not been updated in 5 years? | 07:17 |
| weedmic | I can provide the link to archive files, but... I'm unsure if it has the library you require - should I look for this link? | 07:18 |
| overclockin | have u look at docker maybe old python not so easy to grabs https://hub.docker.com/r/advian/pyenv | 07:18 |
| detly | weedmic: Not quite. I am using ubuntu 23.04. I am maintaining and upgrading firmware that uses a 2018 version of a build system. That's the thing that depends on Python 2.7. | 07:18 |
| weedmic | ? isn't firmware installed with "fwupgmgr update" | 07:20 |
| overclockin | he is firmware MANAGER | 07:21 |
| detly | weedmic: firmware for something else entirely | 07:21 |
| weedmic | found it - here you go - the archive of everything http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/ | 07:27 |
| weedmic | detly: ^ | 07:27 |
| overclockin | docker pls | 07:27 |
| detly | overclockin: docker is fine for CI or archiving, but I also need a development environment I can easily hack on | 07:29 |
| overclockin | docker attach or docker run command | 07:30 |
| overclockin | could also vm route of old os | 07:30 |
| overclockin | centos really old | 07:30 |
| weedmic | detly: if you are doing anti malware, I recommend remnux linux - if you are leaning toward penetration, then kali. or you can take ubuntu and add the tools you need. but you probably want to use VM like virtualbox or vmware, so you can delete things and start over as if they were real machines. | 07:31 |
| overclockin | thanks for alerting of coming back war, welcome back sir | 07:32 |
| detly | weedmic: For context, I'm maintaining firmware in a similar vein to OpenWRT or Yocto. Older versions of those distros build systems require Python 2.7. For things like CI and reproducible builds, containers and VMs with older versions of the host OS work fine. But for eg. reproducing bugs in older builds, or migrating old packages, or just general development, being able to run the build system locally on an up-to-date dev environment is | 07:38 |
| detly | good, with the obvious exception of host packages becoming obsolete. | 07:38 |

| e-type | I've an issue with ubuntuzilla's firefox icon not showing properly in the gnome window switcher and running application icons in the dock. I've opened an issue at their forum, but they're not able to support. Anyone care to have a look? Or where can I ask? https://sourceforge.net/p/ubuntuzilla/discussion/723516/thread/21d86db8f7/ and https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2487636 | 07:50 |
| detly | e-type: by default firefox is installed as a snap, but if you've previously installed it via apt, or manually, or edited the desktop file yourself, there might be a "ghost" desktop entry left in the directory "~/.local/share/applications/" (usually called something like "firefox_firefox.desktop") | 07:52 |
| detly | if this is out of date, it can eg. point to an old location for the icon leading to this kind of problem | 07:53 |
| overclockin | yes snap bad naughty | 07:54 |
| e-type | detly: I know firefox is by default installed as a snap, but I need external pkcs11 libraries which don't work in the snap or flatpack containers | 07:55 |
| e-type | I'm also aware of the desktop spec. I even tried using alacarte to create a custom application dekstop entry. Still the same behaviour. | 07:56 |
| detly | e-type: that's fine, I'm just saying that the desktop file is the first place I'd look for that kind of issue | 07:56 |
| detly | ah dang | 07:56 |
| e-type | I'm missing something, obviously. Described in the links above what I've checked. | 07:56 |
| detly | it's not installed from both sources by any chance is it? | 07:56 |
| e-type | nope | 07:57 |
| detly | e-type: what happens if you change the desktop file to "Icon=firefox-mozilla-build.png"? | 08:03 |
| === guiverc2 is now known as guiverc | ||
| jcdutton | I noticed that Redhat recently made is more difficult for distro's derived from redhat to get the source code. Has Ubuntu got any plans in that direction, or does in encourage derived distros ? | 08:17 |
| ogra | jchittum, definiely not ... | 08:18 |
| overclockin | no absolutely not canincal would never do something so silly | 08:18 |
| ogra | (i mean no plans ... and we indeed encourage derivaives) | 08:18 |
| e-type | detly: I double checked for leftovers by recursive grepping *.desktop files in /usr/share/applications and ~/.local/. Looks clean. I also tried adding .png extension and using the full path in the Icon= line in the desktop file. Logged off and on in between. No love. | 08:20 |
| detly | e-type: that sounds cursed | 08:22 |
| detly | e-type: as a total stab in the dark, I dimly recall from pre-2010 desktop packaging days, it was necessary to run "sudo gtk-update-icon-cache" to solve certain icon caching issues (including missing/blank icons). have you tried that? | 08:23 |
| e-type | detly: nope. I even rebooted now ;-) | 08:27 |
| detly | e-type: yeah that was an extremely superstitious suggestion | 08:27 |
| jcdutton | e-type, what is the problem? I have seen out of memory causing icon problems in the past. | 08:30 |
| e-type | jcdutton: I described the issue here: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2487636 ; it's a machine with 16 GB of RAM and the icon is always missing from the window switcher, even with 1,5GB RAM used. What should I see in the logs? I see no OOM stuff at first sight. | 08:32 |
| ID-10-T | looks like some missing icon/bad path, default replacement icon. | 08:50 |
| e-type | ID-10-T: I agree. Don't know where to look to fix that though. Even a personal desktop entry made using alacarte gets the fallback icon. | 08:54 |
| overclockin | yes i agree too | 08:56 |
| ID-10-T | actually, maybe it's blocked for security purposes | 08:56 |
| e-type | ID-10-T: I see an apparmor message for /usr/bin/firefox | 09:04 |
| e-type | "Skipping profile in /etc/apparmor.d/disable: usr.bin.firefox" | 09:04 |
| ID-10-T | that's my only other thought, it's trying to load something from an path it's not allowed to use | 09:05 |
| e-type | how about /usr/bin/firefox being a link to /opt/firefox/firefox and the desktop entry containing just Exec=firefox %u | 09:06 |
| ogra | e-type, does the desktop file have a proper StartupWMClass entry (tis is responsible of grouping the icons for running apps into the panel/launcher) | 09:06 |
| e-type | ogra: StartupWMClass=Firefox | 09:07 |
| ogra | s/of/for/ | 09:07 |
| overclockin | s/it/thing | 09:08 |
| e-type | ogra: ? I don't see the match? :-) | 09:08 |
| ID-10-T | cannot think of anything else other than an improperly sized/made icon. | 09:09 |
| ogra | e-type, which match ? | 09:09 |
| e-type | ogra: for you s/or/for ; don't see which "of" you're replacing :-) | 09:10 |
| detly | actually that's a thought - back up the old icon, move a known-to-be-working icon (or symlink) into the same path, try again | 09:10 |
| detly | and the also point the icon path in the desktop file to a different one | 09:10 |
| ogra | e-type, i was correcting my typo ... "is responsible of grouping the icons " | 09:10 |
| e-type | ID-10-T: if I get the apparmor message I posted at 11:04, what profile would be applied, and wouldn't there be an apparmor error denying access to the icon? | 09:29 |
| ogra | the apparmor profile will not affect the icons ... only the browser binary at runtime | 09:30 |
| ogra | (and what it can access) | 09:30 |
| === weedmic_ is now known as weedmic | ||
| e-type | ogra: right, it's not the firefox executable showing the icons. | 09:42 |

| oerheks | they give support on discord https://rustdesk.com/docs/en/self-host/install/ | 18:12 |
| devslash | fwiw, discord sucks | 18:26 |

| hsiktas[m] | just upgraded from 22.04 to 22.10 and now trying Software Updater to upgrade to 23.04 does not work | 19:23 |
| hsiktas[m] | when I click on "Upgrade" the app closes and nothing happens: https://ubuntu.com/tutorials/upgrading-ubuntu-desktop#2-launch-the-software-updater | 19:23 |
| hsiktas[m] | do-release-upgrade wants me to install all available updates for my system | 19:26 |
| hsiktas[m] | but apt upgrade only shows one libc++1 package that has been held back | 19:26 |
| hsiktas[m] | does this mean that phased updates block distro upgrades? | 19:28 |
| hsiktas[m] | skipped the delay by upgrading the package with aptitude and now the distro upgrade is running | 19:31 |
| Guest40 | Hey could someone pastebin me there os-release file? my supplier modified mine even tho the distro is really ubuntu and now a program is complaining about compatibility | 19:32 |
| Guest40 | (20.04) | 19:32 |
| hsiktas[m] | /etc/os-release and /usr/lib/os-release should be the same | 19:41 |
| oerheks | no, /etc/os-release is a link to /usr/lib/os-release | 19:42 |
| oerheks | https://askubuntu.com/questions/1280557/how-to-revert-damage-done-by-editing-etc-os-release | 19:43 |
| oerheks | here is a copy of 20.04.1 ... | 19:43 |
| oerheks | now at .6? | 19:43 |
| Guest40 | thanks! it worked | 19:44 |

| _jak | hey y'all, quick question about grub cli syntax. If I want to test loading a kernel module early with options can I just use teh grub insmod command? Is there any significant difference between that and using insmod in a user session? | 20:04 |
| rbox | grub has nothing to do with kernel modules | 20:05 |
| oerheks | grub insmod ? | 20:05 |
| coolness | do update-grub | 20:08 |
| coolness | theres the grub custom 40 file too | 20:10 |
| _jak | wait, can't you use grub to change kernel command line parameters and such? am I wrong about that? | 20:12 |
| _jak | let me explain what I'm trying to do | 20:12 |
| rbox | theres an idea... | 20:13 |
| oerheks | one can edit the grubline from grub menu; | 20:13 |
| oerheks | !grub | 20:13 |
| ubottu | GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 20:13 |
| _jak | I'm trying to see if letting nvidia-drm.modeset to 1 will fix this flickering problem I've noticed after updating my driver | 20:14 |
| root | well well | 20:14 |
| root | logging in as root | 20:14 |
| rbox | _jak: okay, so set that | 20:14 |
| coolness | i was just looking at this https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Kernel_module _jak | 20:30 |
| coolness | idk i never did it before but maybe thats how in there | 20:31 |
| coolness | dont blame me if you mess it up | 20:31 |
| coolness | it says the modules are loaded by systemd | 20:40 |
| coolness | and then theres ways to set parameters to paramname=option | 20:41 |
| coolness | im learning :D | 20:41 |
| _jak | what I'd normally do to test that is just `modprobe -r nvidia && modprobe nvidia modeset=1` but I can't do that for the nvidia one so I went to set it in grub, and noticed theres an insmod command, so my brain just pattern matched, despite knowing that it made no sense | 20:47 |
| _jak | thanks for the sanity check all | 20:47 |
| coolness | ooo theres a command modinfo | 20:48 |
| coolness | it shows parameters but you need to know name of module | 20:48 |
| topcat001 | I think you were mixing up grub modules and linux kernel modules earlier _jak; grub's insmod command loads a grub module, i.e., nothing to do with kernel. | 20:51 |
| coolness | then theres lsmod | 20:52 |
| _jak | yeah that's exactly what it was topcat001 | 20:52 |
| _jak | I somehow deleted the sentence "I figured out how I confused myself" from that last message | 20:52 |
| oerheks | are you sure with nvidia modeset=1 ?? not the drm line nvidia-drm modeset=1 | 20:53 |
| topcat001 | :) I always confuse myself till my blood caffeine levels rise to normal in the morning | 20:53 |
| coolness | this is cool i never knew this :D i dont want to blow my computer up though | 20:57 |
| _jak | oerheks: did I not type nvidia-drm? because that's what I need to change, the direct rendering manager | 20:58 |
| _jak | ah I see yeah didn't mean to leave that out up there | 20:58 |
| oerheks | enabled modesetting via /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia.conf | 20:59 |
| akik | hi, i found a missing dependency for either glmark2 or glmark2-wayland (environment: wsl 2/ubuntu 22.04) the missing dependency is libegl1. where should i report this at? | 22:38 |
| oerheks | i see libwayland-egl1 as dependencie https://packages.ubuntu.com/jammy/glmark2-wayland | 22:40 |
| akik | glmark2 doesn't load libEGL.so | 22:40 |
| akik | it's just the glmark2-wayland program | 22:41 |
| akik | glmark2 load libGL.so | 22:42 |
| akik | libGL.so.1 comes from libgl1 | 22:43 |
| akik | oerheks: if you see the package contents of libwayland-egl1, it doesn't contain libEGL.so | 22:44 |
| oerheks | okem, not sure what package to file a bugreport against | 22:45 |
| akik | it looks like it would be glmark2-wayland | 22:46 |
| akik | missing libegl1 dependency | 22:46 |
| akik | although; glmark2 didn't work either after install | 22:47 |
| akik | akik@DESKTOP-6E4476J:~$ glmark2 | 22:47 |
| akik | Error: Failed to load libGL | 22:47 |
| akik | then i installed libgl1 and it started working | 22:47 |
| akik | so it could be both of them | 22:47 |
| akik | oerheks: is it launchpad i should do it at? | 22:49 |
| oerheks | sure | 22:49 |
| oerheks | !bug | 22:49 |
| ubottu | If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its official !flavors, please report it using the command « ubuntu-bug <package> » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs. | 22:49 |
| akik | ok thanks | 22:50 |
| akik | oh ok that's convenient | 22:50 |
| oerheks | via terminal | 22:50 |
| akik | oerheks: that was _really_ easy | 22:57 |
| gordonjcp | is there a way to get Ubuntu to not keep installing all the squiggle fonts? | 22:59 |
| rbox | squiggle fonts? | 23:00 |
| gordonjcp | I will never ever need to write anything in any dialect of Bengali, and it annoys me that I have to scroll throw line after line after line of non-Latin languages | 23:00 |
| gordonjcp | or, if they have to be installed, maybe make them not show up in every font picker | 23:00 |
| rbox | what happens when you remove them | 23:00 |
| gordonjcp | nothing, but any attempt to install anything even vaguely desktop-related pulls them all back in again | 23:01 |
| rbox | maybe you can make a fontconfig rule to ignore them | 23:02 |
| gordonjcp | hm, that might work | 23:03 |

| mantise | im trying to make a bootable windows usb in ubuntu. ive searched the web for a method. many advanced solutions come up. how do i do it ? | 23:45 |
| jeremy31 | mantise: ventoy? | 23:47 |
| mantise | woeusb, ventoy tricky ways | 23:47 |
| jeremy31 | I don't think woeusb is supported anymore | 23:48 |
| c0olness | vm | 23:48 |
| c0olness | virtualbox | 23:48 |
| EriC^^ | mantise: will you be using it in uefi mode? | 23:49 |
| mantise | guess uefi, yes. so i should use GPT | 23:51 |
| mantise | ill try ventoy from this guide https://itsfoss.com/bootable-windows-usb-linux/ | 23:51 |
| c0olness | one time i just made ntfs format and copied the iso contents and it worked | 23:51 |
| c0olness | or was it fat32 | 23:52 |
| mantise | c0olness: guess thats a chance to take :D | 23:53 |
| akik | mantise: if you can't use ventoy, i have a document on how to do it in linux | 23:53 |
| c0olness | for shure wont hurt to try | 23:53 |
| mantise | akik: i try this guide now, downloaded the tar.gz, running the Ventoyweb.sh | 23:54 |
| mantise | trying something. brb | 23:57 |
