[00:51] <bobdobbs`> I'm on ubuntu 22.04. I just installed gimp using flatpak. I installed it as a non-root user. Now that I installed it, how do I run it? I can't find the binary.
[00:52] <bobdobbs`> Googling doesn't help me on this. The google results tell me which possible subdirectories the binary might be in. But when I look in those subdirectories, there aren't binaries. Just a further maze of subdirectories.
[00:54] <sarnold> try "flatpak run org.gimp.GIMP"
[00:54] <sarnold> (I stole that from https://docs.flatpak.org/en/latest/using-flatpak.html )
[00:54] <bobdobbs`> that does it! Thanks sarnold!
[00:54] <sarnold> yay :D
[00:55] <bobdobbs`> I'm basically trying to get this runing: https://github.com/intel/openvino-ai-plugins-gimp
[00:56] <bobdobbs`> It looks pretty cool. But I've never heard of openvino before
=== hyperreal4 is now known as hyperreal
[01:00] <sarnold> well that looks neat
[01:00] <bobdobbs`> Yeah.
[01:01] <bobdobbs`> sarnold: like, photoshop has racked up some competition. Like the Affinity suite, which is commerical but has a one-off cost per version. I think that photoshop is trying to justify the subscription by providing AI tools.
[01:02] <bobdobbs`> sarnold: but this seems to provide comparable AI-enhanced workflow tooling for gimp
[01:02] <bobdobbs`> cd
[01:02] <bobdobbs`> whoops
[01:03] <sarnold> bobdobbs`: hopefully it'll stick around; it also has a bit of the feeling of a neato research project but it'll stagnate in a year and not even run in two years. that's just my guess, and I'd love to be wrong.
[01:06] <bobdobbs`> sarnold: Yeah. You might be right. But in a couple of years that won't matter, given the extremely high pace of change in the AI world.
[01:07] <sarnold> bobdobbs`: heh, maybe. but the others might be only done as SAAS websites or something annoying
[01:07] <bobdobbs`> This isn't even the first GIMP AI plugin. I came across one a few months ago that allows a user to plug GIMP into a local instance of stable diffusion.
[01:08] <bobdobbs`> btw, I'm gonna have to start again - I just accidently deleted my entire stable diffusion folder. lol.
[01:08] <bobdobbs`> Shouldn't take too long to set everything up again. I didn't lose any data that I created myself.

[06:21] <db`> Hi people! Need some troubleshooting here.
[06:21] <EriC^^> !ask | db`
[06:21] <ubottu> db`: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience
[06:29] <db`> So, I've got an old laptop (Sony Vaio) with legacy bios, winning Win 10. I setup ubuntu using a flash drive by manually configuring the partitions (the "something else" option during installation). I also had to setup an EFI partition of 512 MB. I got the /home on another partition (sda8) and / on sda6. EFI is on sda9. In the bootloader
[06:29] <db`> configuration, I chose sda9 (since EFI is on sda9; infact had tried with sda8 earlier). Now, when I boot, the system says " Operating system not found". Windows is on sda2. Windows recovery is on sda1. I don't see the bootloader/grub screen to choose os. I tried reinstalling and choosing bootloader to be on sda8 (/), still same issue. I guess I
[06:29] <db`> need to manually intervene and  fix the bootloader stuff. Any assistance is greatly appreciated.
[06:30] <db`> Running*; not winning. Lol
[06:30] <EriC^^> db`: are you in the live session right now?
[06:31] <EriC^^> for future reference in the installer 'device for bootloader installation' you want to keep it as the disk itself not a partition
[06:31] <EriC^^> but in any case i dont think that's the issue
[06:31] <db`> EriC^^you mean I let the default option of the whole disk be the way it is, and not choose any option at all?
[06:32] <EriC^^> yeah exactly
[06:32] <db`> Okay, I'll give that a try. I guess I'll have to install Ubuntu all again?
[06:32] <EriC^^> nah
[06:32] <db`> Or can I just change the settings and it should work?
[06:33] <db`> Oh okay, thanks.
[06:33] <db`> I'll give that a try.
[06:33] <EriC^^> wait
[06:33] <EriC^^> are you in a live session right now?
[06:33] <db`> I'm not live atm. Will be in an hour or so
[06:33] <EriC^^> at this point that isnt the issue, if it didnt install ubuntu to the mbr windows should still boot so something else is up
[06:33] <EriC^^> ok
[06:35] <db`> Well, windows is on c:\. D:\ & F:\ are two additional partitions I've. I installed Ubuntu on F:\ by making partitions within, to keep /home separate.
[06:37] <db`> F:\ is 100 gb. I installed Ubuntu on 40gb of f drive - i.e / - sda6. 50gb of f drive for /home - sda8. EFI of 512 mb again from the balance leftover of f drive, and a swap
[06:37] <db`> So basically, I've kept Ubuntu out of windows partition EriC^^
[06:38] <EriC^^> i see
[06:38] <db`> So, do you suggest that I keep the bootloader option to the whole drive and try?
[06:39] <EriC^^> how many disks do you have?
[06:39] <db`> But since you say that it's not the issue, what do you intend?
[06:40] <db`> I have only 1 disk HDD 700GB. C, d & f drives are all from the same physical disk.
[06:40] <EriC^^> well right now the predicament is that if ubuntu installed to the mbr, you should at least get a grub rescue shell, if it didn't then windows should be booting so that's pretty odd
[06:41] <EriC^^> ok, and since you have only 1 disk, then that rules out another disk being booted
[06:42] <EriC^^> usually when one shrinks windows and stuff it's recommended to reboot into it a couple times so it changes its bootloader stuff, i wonder if that's the problem?
[06:42] <db`> No clue
[06:42] <EriC^^> in any case, you could try to reinstall ubuntu in the something else option, leaving the disk as the bootloader device and see what happens
[06:43] <db`> I carved out f drive for ubuntu from d drive, actually. Didn't touch c.
[06:43] <EriC^^> i see
[06:43] <EriC^^> maybe the 'boot flag' is now missing in the partition table? some bios wont boot a disk without it present
[06:44] <EriC^^> once you have a live usb session it will be easier to just take a look and see what might be wrong
[06:44] <db`> I can use the flash drive and goto the grub terminal. But then what commands do I use to fix the bootloader may probably fix it
[06:45] <db`> Sure, but I can't boot into windows at all. All I can do is plug in the flash drive & run ubuntu in try mode and get to terminal, or maybe use the grub console
[06:45] <EriC^^> that works
[06:46] <db`> Sure, I'll get back in an hour EriC^^, thanks

[08:03] <shoto> Hello guys and girls
[08:03] <shoto> Can somebody answer a question regarding the ubuntu installation please?
[08:06] <shoto> I wanna install ubuntu next to windows for reasons. I already installed windows, created an empty partition for ubuntu and now I am asking myself which partitions i should create in the installer. I wanna encrypt my root partition. So I choose encrypted partition as partition type and set it to the root mount point /. But it wasn't enough. The installer told me to create a boot partition. Maybe because the boot
[08:06] <shoto> partition should not be encrypted. Can somebody help me with that?
[08:08] <shoto> My machine is a new lenovo ideapad 5 pro
[08:10] <heapify> I remember that with ubuntu you can easily "divide" the partition between windows and ubuntu. Anyway, when you set / to be an encrypted partition you need to create a separate partition for /boot
[08:12] <shoto> heapify: should the boot partition just be ext3 format?
[08:15] <shoto> If I'm using EFI boot, the partition type should be FAT for the boot partition, right?
[08:17] <aiena> shoto, yes you need i think 512mb as EFI minimum but if you have windows installed ubuntu can reuse the same efi partition to store the windows and linux efi data
[08:17] <aiena> shoto, you will have to disable secure boot i think afaik
[08:18] <aiena> shoto,  in the drop down there is a partition type EFI you would use that instead of FAT
[08:18] <aiena> though an EFI is FAT32 i think
[08:19] <shoto> Thank you very much!
[08:20] <shoto> A last question: There is a drop down menu for boot loader installation. Which location should I choose there? The boot partition? Or the encrypted root?
[08:20] <aiena> i am not sure never setup a system that way
[08:20] <aiena> shoto,I have an idea
[08:21] <aiena> install virtualbox on your windows system and experiment with 2 OSes inside it
[08:21] <shoto> aiena good idea
[08:21] <aiena> install a windows trial version and then install an ubuntu on the side
[08:21] <aiena> assuming your system can cope
[08:21] <shoto> yea, that's what i'll do
[08:22] <shoto> thank you all again! and have a great day!
[08:22] <aiena> if windows boots fine aftr that then you got 90% figured out
[08:22] <aiena> shoto, oh plese try to make a backup before a full install if something goes wrong and u have the resources
[08:22] <shoto> sure!
[08:22] <aiena> otherwise make sure you know exaclt whats going to happen and be insanely careful and cross fingures
[08:23] <aiena> i dont have backup drives but i had no issues because i test a lot or use a blank nvme drive disconnecting the main one etc.

[18:09] <taketime> that is first of all terminal app
[18:09] <taketime> second of all , this was from start how I tried
[18:09] <taketime> it does not work
[18:09] <tomreyn> does your script have a hashbang in line 1?
[18:09] <ioria> taketime, so, the the problem is in the script, not in the system in general;
[18:10] <tomreyn> (specifying the interpreter)
[18:14] <taketime> Exec=/usr/bin/env python3 /home/$USER/pitcher2.py
[18:14] <taketime> wont work as well
[18:14] <taketime> yeah
[18:15] <taketime> it wont run with or without #!/usr/bin/env python
[18:17] <taketime> doing everything from terminal works
[18:17] <taketime> I just cd to dir
[18:17] <taketime> run python script.py
[18:17] <taketime> cd away
[18:17] <taketime> hustle over
[18:17] <taketime> it's just stupid that we cannot make icons that run terminal python scripts
[18:18] <taketime> well you will say we can, but I did every way and none of them make exec from right dir
[18:19] <tomreyn> hwich ubuntu version are you running there, which graphical desktop? where is the .desktop file placed, or how is it installed?
[18:19] <tomreyn> did you whitelist it using gio?
[18:19] <taketime> 22.04
[18:20] <taketime> gio set /usr/share/applications/pitcher.desktop metadata:: trusted true
[18:20] <taketime> gio: too many arguments
[18:21] <taketime> gio set /usr/share/applications/pitcher.desktop metadata::trusted true
[18:21] <tomreyn> no blank space before "trusted"
[18:21] <taketime> gio: metadata::trusted attribute setting is not supported
[18:24] <tomreyn> i'm not sure whether changes to files in /usr/share/applications/ will become effective unless you also run some commands to update the running desktop.
[18:26] <tomreyn> try placing the file in your actual desktop directory instead.
[18:28] <tomreyn> there is also ~/.local/share/applications/ - the default install location for per user .desktop files (to provide your session with additional applications which are also to be added to the menus / become known to the gnome shell, if any)

[19:06] <JanC> taketime: see https://specifications.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest/ar01s06.html
[19:08] <JanC> if you need a specific working directory to always run from, you probably want to use Path
[19:09] <JanC> (alternatively, you can also change to that working directory with Python itself, of course)
[19:15] <JanC> also, you might have to quote that $
[19:41] <rfm> taketime, JanC here's a .desktop I put in my Desktop directory, marked executable, and clicked on.   After clicking through the xfce dialog to mark it trusted, I got a python interpreter running in a terminal in my home directory. https://dpaste.com/6F2EQGJAK

[21:23] <fluid> I have a new USB<->ethernet adapter that I can't get working. I downloaded the driver from the chip manufacturer, built and installed with modprobe. Device is detected but link is down and I've been unable to bring it up.
=== Guest4688 is now known as gumpthedude
[21:23] <fluid> "ip link set eno1 up" gives no error but the link stays down.
[21:24] <fluid> if I remove the cable from the motherboard ethernet connection and plug it into the usb device, it's still not happy.
[21:24] <fluid> I've verified the device works by plugging it into my windows machine.
=== Vercas6 is now known as Vercas
[21:28] <fluid> oh, "UP in <> is the link, not the "state DOWN" thing. Ok, progress
[21:28] <jhutchins> fluid: Check rfkill, see if it's "off"?
[21:31] <fluid> rfkill not installed
[21:31] <fluid> It's a wired interface
[21:31] <fluid> no lights when I plug in a known good connection
[21:32] <fluid> "rfkill list" shows nothing
[21:33] <fluid> ip says "NO-CARRIER"
[21:33] <NickH> Probably best to state exactly what this device is,  what driver you downloaded, and what instructions you followed.
[21:35] <fluid> Device is a StarTech USB 3.0 Gigabit Ethernet Adapter USB31000SPTB
[21:36] <fluid> I downloaded the ASIX_USB_NIC_Linux_Driver_Source_v1.1.0 and compiled it based on the instructions in the Readme, which was just running "make install" and then "modprobe ax_usb_nic"
[21:37] <fluid> The file is the AX88179A driver listed for the "Linux kernel 5.x/4.x/3.x/2.6.x"
[21:39] <jeremy31> fluid: was is the devices ID from> lsusb
[21:40] <fluid> ASIX Electronics Corp. AX88179 Gigabit Ethernet
[21:40] <jeremy31> I need the USB ID from lsusb results

[21:42] <ravage> fluid: https://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-2470874.html
[21:43] <ravage> so try to rmmod your custom kernel module
[21:43] <ravage> then try
[21:43] <ravage> sudo rmmod ax88179_178a
[21:43] <ravage> sudo modprobe cdc_mbim
[21:43] <ravage> sudo modprobe ax88179_178a # optional
[21:46] <fluid> I don't have ax88179_178a. Should I try to modprobe my new driver after I modprobe the cdc_mbim?
[21:46] <ravage> i would try to plug it in after you loaded cdc_mbim
[21:46] <ravage> maybe it just works?
[21:47] <jeremy31> A year old bug report shows that this works in terminal>  sudo rmmod ax88179_178a && sudo modprobe usbnet
[21:47] <ravage> try that too if it does not work
[21:48] <fluid> same situation. No link lights, ip says "NO-CARRIER"
[21:48] <ravage> it is a little strange that it registers as eno1
[21:48] <ravage> my usb ethernet devices all get names that start with usb
[21:49] <fluid> altname enp0s31f6
[21:49] <fluid> <shrug>
[21:49] <jhutchins> fluid: You said it works in Windows?
[21:49] <fluid> yup
[21:49] <jhutchins> fluid: Actually establishes a connection?
[21:50] <fluid> yes, been using it for weeks
[21:50] <jhutchins> fluid: Try a different USB port?
[21:51] <fluid> Same result.
[21:52] <jeremy31> fluid unplug the thing and run in a terminal dmesg -w then plug it in, then paste the terminal output at dpaste.com, post URL here
[21:55] <fluid> http://dpaste.org/Z67Ot
[21:57] <jhutchins> I didn't realize that the new naming scheme brings interfaces up as "eth0" then re-names them.  I thought it went the other direction.
[21:58] <jeremy31> USB devices get the MAC address as part of the new naming
[21:59] <jeremy31> fluid: what happens in terminal when you plug a cable into it?
[21:59] <jhutchins> [ 2578.823069] ax_usb_nic 2-7.2.1:1.0 enx000acd2b48d1: renamed from eth0
[21:59] <fluid> nothing
[22:00] <jeremy31> fluid: Did you try it before installing that driver?
[22:05] <fluid> Yes. Same issue.
[22:13] <fluid> mfg has a driver on their website, same identifier, but needs other software to compile.
[22:18] <fluid> I had to install flex and bison but now I'm getting an issue about making syscall_32.tbl
[22:20] <fluid> the $(shell PWD) everyone is recommending doesn't fix it
[22:21] <jeremy31> fluid: what Ubuntu version?
[22:23] <fluid> 22.04

[22:31] <fluid> the internal ports work
[22:32] <jeremy31> Why the need for the USB adapter?

[22:43] <fluid> SUBDIRS is depreciated......
[22:46] <fluid> and the new driver throws errors on incompatible-pointer-types and return-type
[22:46] <fluid> What a mess, all for a USB device.
[22:58] <fluid> ok, I seem to have made progress. I power-cycled what the adapter is connected to and have "ax88179 - Link status is: 0" followed by "ax88179 - Link status is: 1" in dmesg
[23:00] <fluid> Still no lights on the USB adapter but I *am* getting messages when I disconnect and reconnect the network cable

[23:31] <Guest50> I'm trying to upgrade the clangd package on ubuntu 20.04 from clang-10 to clang-11. I can install clangd-11 from apt, but this does not change the version of clang. Is there some other command I need to run to make the clangd package point to clangd-11 instead of the older version?
[23:37] <rbox> it looks like the clangd package provides the clangd symlink whcih points to clangd-10
[23:37] <rbox> so you have to run clangd-11 if you want the version 11
[23:49] <Guest50> rbox: Is there a way of changing which binary clangd points at? Which apt/dpkg will still honor?
[23:49] <rbox> no
[23:50] <rbox> the package owns /usr/bin/clangd and it points to clangd-10
[23:50] <rbox> i suppose you could uninstall clangd
[23:50] <rbox> and manually create a /usr/bin/clangd
[23:50] <rbox> but putting random files in /usr is bad form, espeically stuff owned by packages
[23:50] <Guest50> Is there a way of checking these paramaters of each package on the command line? To see if clangd-11 will update the symbolic link?
[23:51] <rbox> huh?
[23:51] <rbox> i just told you it wont
[23:51] <Guest50> How do I get information about the package?
[23:51] <rbox> what "information"
[23:51] <Guest50> What symbolic links it changes and things like that
[23:51] <rbox> dpkg -L will tell you what files a package owns
[23:51] <Guest50> Thanks
