peacefulmandoes anyone else use fscrypt? How stable is it? Seems pretty stable on 22.0400:50
sarnoldit should be pretty stable but I expect LUKS gets way more use00:51
sarnoldthey solve different problems, but there's enough overlap that a lot of folks just use the better-integrated LUKS00:51
peacefulmanthe problem is, if the power goes out or I need to reboot the pc remotely I have no access to enter the luks boot password00:52
peacefulmanI hear though the next ubuntu release will have some tpm stuff builtin though00:53
sarnoldthen fscrypt would definitely be a better fit today :)00:53
metsatron_Hi, I made the terrible mistake of enabling Ubuntu Pro. Now support is broken for some essential plugins. How can I roll back the ESM updates? I can't find anything online.01:33
JanCwhat do you mean by "support is broken for some essential plugins"?01:35
metsatron_@JanC I'm running Xubuntu 22.04. After the ESM updates XFCE4 Panel no longer renders some external plugins correctly. One is vala-panel-appmenu. So I literally have no usable app menus now. Is there a way to roll back the updates? I tried disabling ESM Infra and ESM Apps but it did not roll them back.01:38
sarnoldwith the caveat that I haven't tried this, I think it stands a good chance of working: apt install --reinstall $(apt list --installed | grep esm | awk -F/ '{print $1;}')01:40
metsatron_@sarnold I get a lot of "Reinstallation of [package] is not possible, it cannot be downloaded."01:42
JanClooks like libexo is in ESM, which is the XFCE core Gtk extension library01:42
sarnolddang01:42
sarnoldmetsatron_: oh, did you run apt update after disabling the esm repos?01:42
JanCI'm surprised they would break the ABI of that though?01:42
metsatron_@sarnold I haven't. I will try that now.01:43
JanCthat would break all the XFCE application, not just some plugins01:43
metsatron_@sarnold unfortunately that did not offer to roll anything back.01:44
JanCmetsatron_: I assume you tried restarting already?01:44
pragmaticenigmathis isn't because of libc updates?01:45
JanClibc isn't in ESM though01:45
sarnoldmetsatron_: dang. the next step I'd take if it were me task is to apt install foo=version bar=version ... for all the packages that you've got, specifying the highest package version still available to you01:45
JanCpragmaticenigma: or you mean maybe the ydid that around the same time?01:46
metsatron_@JanC. Yes I tried restarting. Initially I reloaded xfce4-panel after the update and that's when I noticed it had broken.01:46
JanCI meant restart everything (or at least the dekstop session)01:47
metsatron_Yeah I have tried that.01:47
JanCmetsatron_: do you see any errors from those plugins?01:47
metsatron_I'll do it again just to be sure.01:48
pragmaticenigmaJanC: yes, wondering if the libc came at the same time as the ESM enrollment01:50
metsatron_JanC: I don't see any errors. Just rendering issues. For example the appmenu works, but it's not expanded. So only 10px is visible and the expand setting does nothing. I also noticed that on a panel all icons now conform to the height of the panel rather than having say 16px icons for menu's, 32px icons for windows and 64px icons for launchers.01:50
metsatron_The window menu plugin also changed appearance and that's not an external plugin, it's in the official repo.01:51
metsatron_Anyway, I'll reboot and come back. I may miss your messages until I get back.01:52
JanCI think libexo-* (3 files) & exo-utils are the packages that need downgrading from 4.16.3-1ubuntu0.1~esm1 to 4.16.3-1 to revert the changes that are relevant for XFCE01:52
sarnoldmetsatron:  < JanC> I think libexo-* (3 files) & exo-utils are the packages that need downgrading from 4.16.3-1ubuntu0.1~esm1 to 4.16.3-1 to revert the changes that are relevant for XFCE01:55
JanCa security update for libexo shouldn't break things though, that sounds like a bug...   :-/01:55
JanCas every XFCE application depends on it01:56
metsatronPardon my ignorance. I don't really understand how ESM updates work. Is it just another repo or is it a different system entirely like snap?01:56
sarnoldit's just another repo01:56
metsatronCan I list all the last updated packages from today?01:57
sarnold/var/log/dpkg.log is probably the easiest log to read01:57
JanCmaybe do that on pastebin if there were a lot01:57
JanCif it's just a couple lines then here is fine too01:58
sarnoldif I've navigated the PPAs correctly, this was the upstream version of the exo-open patch https://github.com/xfce-mirror/exo/commit/cc047717c3b5efded2cc7bd419c41a3d1f1e48b602:01
-ubottu:#ubuntu- Commit cc04771 in xfce-mirror/exo "exo-open : Only execute local .desktop files"02:01
sarnoldare your ,desktop files loading remote things?02:01
metsatronhttps://pastebin.com/wiv3ey3602:03
JanCoh, you were using stuff from backports02:04
raubxfce question: is there a place where I can check if my F5/F6 keys are setup to turn keyboard lights on and off?02:05
sarnoldman, it's been 11 weeks since this repo had uploads https://launchpad.net/~xubuntu-dev/+archive/ubuntu/experimental02:06
JanCI think there is also a #xubuntu channel, raub02:06
sarnoldwhy'd all those packages get installed today? did you enable this repo today?02:06
sarnoldor did something keep them back until today?02:06
metsatronIt looks like there was an xfce4-panel update today not related to ESM.02:07
pragmaticenigmaraub: that's usually a firmware thing controlled in BIOS/UEFI02:08
pragmaticenigmaor in the keyboards onboard chipset02:08
metsatronsarnold: to be honest I'm not sure what I was using that repo for at the moment.02:09
metsatronIf I ppa-purge the repo will that roll back the changes?02:10
sarnoldyeah, it should02:11
sarnoldbut I don't think it's prepared to handle packages that overlap with esm very well02:11
metsatronHow do I ppa-purge esm?02:12
sarnoldcannot ;(02:12
=== chris14_ is now known as chris14
sarnoldit only copes with ppas :(02:12
JanCsarnold: with that repo enabled the esm packages wouldn't be installed (older versions)02:12
metsatronIt doesn't look like esm touched xfce-panel though. I was probably jumping to conclusions.02:12
sarnoldJanC: I think some gross pinning tricks are in play02:13
JanCthe ones for XFCE02:13
JanCprobably want to re-enable ESM/Pro afterwards if the problem was with the XFCE backports PPA  :)02:14
metsatronhttps://pastebin.com/py993qdb02:15
metsatronJanC: yeah I was thinking the same!02:15
metsatronDo you think that should fix it, what I pasted?02:15
sarnoldthis bit here kinda worries me:  libxfce4windowing-0-0 libxfce4windowing-common02:16
metsatronOMG it worked!!!02:16
JanCsarnold: those don't exist in the versions in the main repositories02:17
sarnoldyay02:17
JanCit's probably something new in newer XFCE versions...02:17
sarnoldmetsatron: nice nice; it's probably worth an apt update && apt upgrade   before a reboot02:18
metsatronsarnold: roger roger!02:18
JanCthose packages only exist in noble in official Ubuntu repositories02:19
sarnoldyay :) I spotted at least the second one on my archive mirror but didn't track down when it entered..02:19
JanCthey are only needed for XFCE-on-Wayland, I think02:19
xanguaxfce on wayland wow02:20
metsatronThis makes me very nervous about Xubuntu 24.04!!!02:20
JanCwell, hopefully they will test & fix things in the next couple months  ;)02:21
JanCor maybe it's only newer XFCE combined with older stuff in 22.04 that is the problem02:21
raubpragmaticenigma: I think those keys are just not talkign to the computer. i.e. xev shows nothing. So I guess the light control is being done at the keyboard level02:21
raubJanC: any reason you think I am using xubuntu?02:22
metsatronThe thing is more about the unofficial plugins. I can't imagine not using an app menu and if they try and force more gtk3 and gtk4 CSD down my throat I'm probably going to have to switch to KDE or something...02:22
JanCraub: because you said you had an xfce question?02:22
JanCmetsatron: maybe the unofficial plugins will be updated too?02:23
raubJanC: (1) install debian server (2) apt-get install xfce402:24
pragmaticenigmaoh dear02:24
JanCwell, for Debian this is the wrong channel too...02:24
sarnoldah, in that case you'll probably have better luck in #debian on irc.oftc.net02:24
JanCor even #debian here maybe, or #xfce wherever they are02:24
raubJanC: right you are! I hit the wrong channel.02:24
raubI stand corrected02:25
raubLet me try #debian then02:25
metsatronI use XFCE because I want a traditional 90's style desktop. Different elements from the 90's desktop paradigm, whether it's the Mac's menu, CDE's dock, classic Gnome window manager and panels, classic file manager. It pains my heart that XFCE is being dragged into Gnome's design choices. If I wanted to use Gnome I would use Gnome.02:27
xanguapretty sure there's a setting to disable CSD, at least on XFCE apps02:28
metsatronAnyway, I feel the best course for me now is to install 24.04 LTE in a VM and make sure I can configure it to my needs first before deciding to upgrade.02:28
JanCyou could try Mate also02:28
pragmaticenigmametsatron: what about LXQT?02:29
JanCthat's also an option metsatron; with Pro/ESM you can even get security updates for 22.04 until 2032  :)02:29
metsatronI have for the most part disabled CSD, although I still get Gnome apps that render extra window controls. I don't know if it's going to be worse moving forwards since it appears XFCE is embracing the madness rather than finding ways to overcome it.02:30
xanguamate desktop forked some gnome apps too, you can use mate or just install the mate apps02:31
metsatronMate is a good option. I just feel XFCE has been more configurable in the panel department. Sometimes I like to emulate the look and feel of BeOS, sometimes Macintosh, sometimes Windows 95, sometimes CDE or NeXTStep/WindowMaker. XFCE has given me the flexibility to mix and match all the best elements of 90's keyboard and mouse driven interface design without any of the nonsense responsive touch centric design compromiseso.02:32
JanCand/or some Cinnamon apps02:32
metsatronDo you know if there is a mate version of baobab (Gnome Disk Usage Analyser)?02:34
pragmaticenigmashould be able to install baobab under mate like anything elsee02:35
JanCmate-disk-usage-analyzer is part of mate-utils02:35
metsatronOh wow, so if I install mate-utils will I get a lot of overlap with the XFCE ones? Or should I just hand pick the ones that replace the offensive Gnome utils?02:36
JanChttps://packages.ubuntu.com/jammy/amd64/mate-utils/filelist02:39
metsatronThanks, I installed mate-utils but can't find the mate-disk-usage-analyzer installed on my system.02:41
metsatronAh, I was able to launch it from terminal. It just didn't create a app menu item for some reason.02:42
metsatronThis is cool. Thanks for the massive help today everyone! <3f02:43
JanCmaybe the .desktop file says it's for Mate only?  it's easy to copy it into ~/.local/share/applications & change that part if so02:44
metsatronI can confirm the .desktop files are present.02:47
metsatronOnlyShowIn=MATE;02:48
metsatronComment out that line?02:49
sarnoldJanC: DANG you're good :)02:49
JanCcopy the desktop file into ~/.local/share/applications and in that copy you delete that line02:49
metsatronsudo \cp ./mate-* ~/.local/share/applications/*02:51
metsatronLike this?02:51
JanCwithout sudo02:51
sarnoldand just the files that you want to change, too02:52
metsatronAh right *slaps forehead* that would set ownership to root and invalidate the whole point of copying it.02:52
JanCthe copying is because otherwise it gets overwritten on the next package update02:53
JanC(although I guess MATE doesn't see much updates probably...)02:54
JanCeven without frequent updates it's a good habit02:54
metsatronYeah JanC thanks so much for the tip!03:00
tanathmetsatron: cinnamon is a great alternative for '90s-style but more modern. i'd recommend it for most people03:00
tanathit's similar to gnome 2 & xfce03:01
tanathnot sure what xfce is changing to be gnome-like which you don't like?03:03
xanguaGTK/gnome is the one that forces it03:05
xanguaI believe gtk 4 no longer supports menubar (?) Or is just my imagination?03:05
pragmaticenigmawould have to know what you were looking at to know what you mean03:06
branchermhh I think I lost my connection earlier or so03:07
brancheris there a repo where these scratch tars are available under version number ?? https://partner-images.canonical.com/oci/03:07
sarnoldbrancher: what exactly are you looking for?03:10
=== JanC is now known as Guest9448
=== JanC_ is now known as JanC
branchersarnold ubuntu-20.04-oci-amd64-root.tar.gz instead of ubuntu-jammy-oci-amd64-root.tar.gz03:11
brancher22.0403:11
brancherfrom source like that03:12
brancherin the past ISO's existed like that but  I think because of PPA repo's and such are named ones they changed it03:13
metsatrontanath: did mate and cinnamon both fork off Gnome 2?03:15
tanathyeah03:17
tanathbut it's more like xfce, or configurable to be like i think you want03:18
tanathxangua: just saw gtk4 does support menubar: https://docs.gtk.org/gtk4/class.PopoverMenuBar.html03:19
metsatronThat does sound very promising indeed.03:19
tanathit's a classic windows like setup. i don't think it comes with windowlist applet by default. uses the icon style, but you can add the applet03:20
metsatronI'll try it in a VM when 24.04 comes out and see how close I can get it to my ideal desktop.03:21
sarnoldbrancher: hrm, I thought I'd be able to find something with simplestreams but I'm just not finding any of these 'oci' images in the simplestreams data :(03:22
metsatronWhat's a good classic style alternative to mousepad and gedit? Seems like mousepad now forces CSD.03:22
branchersarnold yeah it's "strange". Do they (still) exist in any version like that actually ? So no OCI or so ?03:23
tanathmetsatron: xed03:24
sarnoldbrancher: i know next to nothing about the dozen different image formats :(03:24
branchersarnold oh shame on you! :P03:24
tanathwhat's csd though?03:24
sarnoldtanath: something like client-side decoration03:25
sarnoldtanath: it means the window manager doesn't draw close and minimize and similar bottons on a window around an application, but the application has to draw those sorts of things itself03:25
tanathkind of defeats the purpose of a window manager, in part03:28
tanaththat should be separate from the app in case the app freezes or misbehaves03:28
metsatronOn Mousepad it means the Window title is drawn twice. Once by the CSD and once by the window manager which I force to ignore the CSD.03:34
metsatronMy workaround was to create a theme that has the title the same colour as the background. but the vertical space is still wasted.03:34
unjustice1Just installed Ubuntu Studio 22.04, I don't see a mouse cursor anywhere03:35
=== mint is now known as ubunto
ubuntoHello all03:35
unjustice1People seem to install gnome-tweaks, not sure if this works in KDE. Anyone familiar with this issue?03:36
tanathmetsatron: yeah, xed doesn't do that: https://ibb.co/mz6wmGG03:36
metsatronhttps://imgur.com/a/7dXrBnC03:36
tanathoof. not a fan of that theme. is that what you meant by classic look?03:38
metsatronYeah I made it myself. I'm going for a combination of CDE, Irix and WindowMaker aesthetics with the colour-scheme of the darker Adobe Photoshop UI.03:40
tanathi was talking more about layout and usability and familiarity. it's certainly themable and you could prolly make it look like that if you wanted03:41
tanaththe more modern look and themes have useful features like a subtle dashed line when there's more to scroll in that direction, and a visual indicator when you hit the end03:43
tanathand not blinding you with too much white :D03:44
unjustice1Not finding a lot of traction googling this problem. Anyone familiar with invisible mouse cursor on fresh install?03:49
unjustice1It clicks, applications respond, you just cannot see where the mouse is03:49
metsatrontanath: well taste is a very subjective thing and nostalgia is one hell of a drug. Still, design needs to be appreciated in context. In the last screenshot all you saw was a window manager theme basically.03:51
metsatrontanath: here is a full desktop screenshot: https://imgur.com/a/txbP0TR03:51
tanathyou should be able to get cinnamon very similar to that03:52
sarnoldunjustice1: that reminds me a bit of busted hardware mouse, I haven't seen that in fifteen or twenty years..03:53
tanathunjustice1: sounds like you should change mouse cursor03:53
tanathmaybe something happened to the image files for your current mouse cursor theme03:53
lotuspsychjei had a scrambled mouse pointer for years on an amd card once03:54
tanathmetsatron: btw, i see you're using hexchat, but it was just abandoned03:54
metsatronI want to be able to enjoy the aesthetics of my scroll bars and not have them hide like their some kind of mobile app. On my phone it's a different paradigm and different story, I don't want to see any scroll bars ever! My desktop needs to show it's heritage, it's pedigree. To be proud of it's input methods. If we are talking VR or AR or mobile I would not want it to look classic or retro.03:54
lotuspsychjetanath: hexchat is not abandoned03:55
tanathyes it was03:55
peacefulmangah, the latest nvidia drive update messed up my video03:55
tanathhttps://hexchat.github.io/news/2.16.2.html03:55
unjustice1tanath: is there a package containing this? it doesn't change with theme change, or by increasing the cursor size03:55
lotuspsychjeuh03:55
tanathand the repo is archived03:56
lotuspsychjemy bad tanath03:56
tanathyeah, it's very new news03:56
metsatrontenath: thanks, I'll give cinnamon a go and see how close I can get ^__^03:56
tanathunjustice1: not sure what DE you're using, but it should have a theming app which lets you change mouse cursor03:57
unjustice1KDE: There are a bunch of them, but none of them display a mouse cursor03:58
unjustice1tanath: KDE, but no mouse cursors work03:58
tanathlike in cinnamon https://ibb.co/S6srX7f03:58
tanathnone of them? weird03:58
tanathmaybe it's a compositor issue03:58
tanathhave you tried logging out or rebooting?03:59
unjustice1yeah, gonna try this: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1433429/mouse-cursor-is-invisible-in-latest-ubuntu-22-0404:01

webchat46Hello, everyone. Can someone please give me a hint re: renautils / qmv? Here's its man page: https://manpages.debian.org/testing/renameutils/qmv.1.en.html. I am trying to build a command that will 1) list contents in certain directory (e.g. "/home/USER/Desktop/Test/") AND 2) list all directories there recursively without the files. But qmv either09:12
webchat46lists only the current directory, or if it gives a recursive listing, but all the files are included in the list (`qmv -d  "/home/USER/Desktop/Test"` and `qmv -R  "/home/USER/Desktop/Test"` respectively. `qmv -d -R` just acts as a `qmv -d`). What am I doing wrong, and what would be the proper syntax for what I'm trying to do?09:12

ComputerTechclients, yes09:39
daydrinkingHow's everyone's weekend going? I'm trying to configure my dotfiles and back them up tonight09:43
webchat46daydrinking: I'm trying to figure out how to make renameutils / qmv work, but google gives very few matching results for what I'm looking for and being as useless as it's been in the last 5 years or so.09:59
daydrinkingwhat are you trying to do?10:00
daydrinking(I've never used it, but I like man pages lol)10:01
webchat46yeah, it's a really useful tool. I'm trying to make it list only directories AND resursively. but it seems to be doing only one or the other.10:03
webchat46daydrinking: Here's its man page: https://manpages.debian.org/testing/renameutils/qmv.1.en.html10:03
daydrinkingwebchat46: I downloaded it as soon as you said the name, looking at man already10:03
webchat46if you have nemo, you can even make context menu items for quick renamings that you use often enough10:04
daydrinkingIt looks awesome; if you list both flags {-Rd} does it do -R or -d?10:06
daydrinkingAnd it's stupid, but you are using -R not -r right?10:06
webchat46daydrinking: it's not stupid, it pays to check. I am using `-R`; and e.g. `qmv -Rd "/home/USER/Desktop/11/13"` only lists the top directory, instead of all the ones contained in ./13 recursively. Same with `qmv -R -d "/home/USER/Desktop/11/13"`. `{-Rd}` gives `ls: cannot access '{-Rd}'`.10:11
daydrinkingI see what you mean. Yeah, it looks like it only does -d. I qmv -d {folder}. cd {folder}. Then qmv -R * That gets me as close as I think we can get...10:12
daydrinkingActually, wait! Try qmv -R -d ./{folder}/*10:13
daydrinkingThe * is the important part I think10:14
webchat46`XXX@XXX:~$ qmv -R -d "/home/USER/Desktop/11/13/*"`10:15
webchat46`ls: cannot access '/home/USER/Desktop/11/13/*': No such file or directory`10:15
webchat46`qmv: no files matched` ?10:15
webchat46Or did you mean something else?10:15
daydrinkingtry it from the folder above it10:15
daydrinkingqmv -R -d /home/USER/Desktop/11/*10:16
daydrinkingget rid of the quotes too10:16
webchat46`qmv -R -d ./13/*` lists files too10:17
webchat46I've just been thinking that I must be missing something obvious, because the tool is capable of doing both things -- it just does them separately, for some reason.10:18
lilo_booterwhat happens if you drop the *?10:19
daydrinkingBut it only lists files that are present in the folder "13" right? and not recursively10:19
daydrinkinglilo_booter: It lists one line {folder} {folder}10:20
webchat46Yeah, doesn't show sub-dir folders even.10:21
webchat46This isn't useful, right? `       -o, --options=OPTIONS`10:24
webchat46`              Pass options to the selected edit format. OPTIONS is in the format`10:24
webchat46`              OPTION[=VALUE][,OPTION[=VALUE]...]`10:24
webchat46`              For a list of available options for each format, use --options=help or see below.`10:24
webchat46If not, I guess it just can't do folders-only, recursively. Thanks for helping out!10:24
daydrinkingI think we would need a script... We somehow have to filter out the files, which is kinda supported10:27
daydrinkingtry it one last time with qmv -RXd {folder}/*10:27
daydrinkingthat should at least leave all the files at the bottom10:27
daydrinkingnvm. It's not recursive10:29
webchat46The best workaround is probably a regex that bars matches that end up with file extension, though GPT's having trouble understanding what I'm asking it to do, lol. Thanks again, hope you'll find it useful.10:33
daydrinkingBut -RX looks like a starting point if you can filter out anything with an extension... I'm sure a simple vim script could do that10:33
daydrinking-d Is kinda pointless I think. It doesn't go further than the current directory.10:34
webchat46`-RX` seems to give me a list that's not sorted by dirs-first. as far as the sub-folder dirs are conserned, at least.10:37
daydrinkingYeah, I only have 1 or 2 levels deep, your use case is probably more in depth. I don't know the solution, but I think MC or another tool might be a better fit if this is a regular thing you have to do10:40

CosmicDJdrigy: script kiddies will start hammering your open port (no matter which port number) as soon as it's on the internet, I hope you have a secure config/long password and/or ssh keys set up10:45
drigyPing doesn't find my server. nmap finds it with flags added10:45
CosmicDJdrigy: did you allow icmp echo in ufw, too?10:46
daydrinkingYeah, youre on IRC... but what happens when you try to connect, no response?10:46
drigyNope CosmicDJ I will try that now10:47
CosmicDJdrigy: "nmap finds it with flags added" I have no idea what that means, sorry10:47
webchat46maybe `non-default nmap scan finds it`?10:49
drigyCosmicDJ it just means that nmap only finds it when I add -Pn option, sorry. I also don't know how to do icmp echo in ufw10:50
drigyworking on it...10:52
CosmicDJdrigy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW "By default, UFW allows ping requests."10:53
drigyHmm, yes, icmp is fine here. Weird10:57
daydrinkingPort forwarding is using external port 50080 and local port 22? Or how is it set up? natpmpc I assume10:59
CosmicDJdaydrinking: you don't need that with IPv6 AFAIK11:00
daydrinkingCosmicDJ: Didn't know that. Does IPv6 have the external/internal ports in the address?11:01
daydrinkingI don't know anything about IPv611:02
daydrinkingI learned TCP/IP from a 4 inch book written in 2001 lol. A little outdated11:03
drigydaydrinking: internal, external on 50080, don't know about natpmpc11:03
CosmicDJwell do you have ipv6 connectivity where you're going?11:03
drigySo, both sides need IPv6 tech capabilites by ISP?11:04
CosmicDJyes11:04
drigyIsn't that a shortcoming of the infrastructure? Anyway, not imaportant, need to leave soon +D11:05
drigyipv6 has unique address for every device, right?11:05
daydrinkingAny hints from "service ssh status" or "sudo ufw status"11:05
drigydaydrinking: unfortunately, they are both active and running11:06
daydrinkingssh status says "listening on {IP} port 50080"?11:07
drigyhttps://paste.centos.org/view/6952623011:09
drigyOkay, last chache to go pack. I will ping you from other nick later if you have gotten any other ideas on what to check.11:11
daydrinkingOk, so those are all local connections. can you look at your /etc/ssh/sshd_config11:11
drigyI am able to connect localy yes, not externaly11:12
daydrinkingOk good luck!11:12
daydrinkingHey script kiddies - his IP is 192.168.1.1 - try to hack him!11:13
ituhi11:14
webchat46But, onee-chan, I heard hacking is illegal!11:15
ituhow to delete things in bash history and get it into effect _for all terminal(tabs) _without_ having to re-open them?11:16
daydrinkingitu: You mean so when you press ^ button it doesn't list it in the history?11:17
ituyes11:17
daydrinkingI use zsh, but I assume it's similar. Do you have a .bash_history file?11:18
ituof course11:19
webchat46Bye, all. Have a good day.11:19
daydrinkingYou want a specific item removed? Or do you want a certain command to never be saved? (like I ignore all duplicate commands)11:20
ituand i know fixing in .bash_history  will not take it into effect11:20
ituremoved garbage11:20
daydrinkingput this in your ~/.bashrc "export HISTCONTROL=ignoreboth:erasedups"11:21
ituerasedups will not address my problem and ignoreboth is still in  $HISTCONTROL ...11:23
daydrinkingWhat are you trying to remove?11:24
itugarbage ...11:24
daydrinkingcan you try deleting it from the file, then "source ~/.bashrc"11:25
tanathitu: looks like you want the fc command. check man page11:25
itusomehow there is a multiline entry in history which is very disturbing11:25
tanather, sorry, that's for zsh. wouldn't help with bash11:25

daydrinkingtanath: that taught me something... thanks11:26
tanathdaydrinking: 👍 found it search man zshall11:28

itubut i have to do it in every terminal ..11:35
daydrinkinggood to know.11:36
itui wished to have that even smarter11:36
daydrinkingtanath: yeah, I use bash for my scripts and zsh for daily usage, cause oh-my-zsh11:37
tanathomz is a bit much for me and does things i don't want. i keep it fairly simple and just use zplug for a handful of plugins11:38
itualias reload_bash_historsy='history -c ; history -r'  # maybe the best solution for now11:41
daydrinkingYeah, I use all of 3 things from it. But when I built my zshrc from scratch a couple of years ago, it took way more time and still didn't do things quite as well. But if I have the time, it's definitely worth it to do it from scratch11:41
daydrinkingitu: you should save that command in your bash history lol11:42

unjustice1Anyone have a fix for an invisible mouse cursor on a fresh install of Ubuntu Studio 22.04?13:20
unjustice1I suspect xorg issues based on my web searches13:20
lotuspsychjeunjustice1: do you have an amd/ati card?13:21
unjustice1lotuspsychje: yes13:22
lotuspsychjeunjustice1: is it real invisible or disformed?13:26
unjustice1lotuspsychje:it is completely gone. It can click and drag and seems functional, just can't see it. When I change the style and increase the size of the cursor it is still not visible.13:27
lotuspsychjeunjustice1: did you try testing xorg vs wayland?13:27
unjustice1lotuspsychje: No, sorry I am not sure what wayland is13:29
lotuspsychjeunjustice1: logout back to gdm and choose wayland or xorg from there13:30
unjustice1lotuspsychje:How do you select this from login without a mouse, or should I drop to shell?13:31
lotuspsychjeunjustice1: i assume your mouse can still click item, even if invisible, to try to catch right upper corner to logout13:32
daydrinkingTAB and Shift+TAB13:32
unjustice1lotuspsychje: Also, it's kdm13:32
unjustice1lotuspsychje: I already logged out, just don't see any option with mouse or tab to click anything. I only have "sleep", "virtual keyboard", "shutdown", and "restart"13:35
lotuspsychjeunjustice1: when you enter your username, there should be a gear icon to choose your ubuntu desktop13:36
lotuspsychjeat least if studio has that, but i assume yes13:37
unjustice1lotuspsychje:Not that I see13:37
lotuspsychjeunjustice1: something like this; https://i.stack.imgur.com/Ab6m7.png13:39
unjustice1lotuspsychje: Yeah, it's not there. I tried updating and restarting. Let's see if it pops up.13:41
unjustice1lotuspsychje:nope13:42
lotuspsychjeunjustice1: lets try something else, maybe try getting in your system via recoverymode13:42
unjustice1lotuspsychje: alright13:42
lotuspsychjeunjustice1: enter grub, pick ubuntu(recovery) and try a failsafeX graphics session13:42
lotuspsychjeand lets hope that could bring back your pointer13:43
unjustice1lotuspsychje: alright, I am up in recovery mode13:43
lotuspsychjeunjustice1: enable networking and pick a rootshell from there13:49
unjustice1lotuspsychje: okay13:50
lotuspsychjeunjustice1: sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade , to see if your system is up to date13:51
unjustice1lotuspsychje: 0 new packages13:52
lotuspsychjeok good13:53
lotuspsychjeunjustice1: sudo dmesg | nc termbin.com 999913:54
lotuspsychjeunjustice1: and return us the link you get please13:54
unjustice1lotuspsychje: termbin.com/vpxx13:55
lotuspsychjeunjustice1: reading13:56
unjustice1lotuspsychje: me too : )13:56
lotuspsychjeunjustice1: i notice you got a system76 device there13:57
unjustice1lotuspsychje: yes, my hand build from 2007 finally died two weeks ago. I figured I'd use the extra money to support a company pro OSS. Not sure if I regret the decision yet, lol. There have been a lot of issues13:59
lotuspsychjeunjustice1: did you compare your system with a PopOs! install?13:59
unjustice1lotuspsychje: they offer either Pop or Ubuntu, I asked for Ubuntu but it crashed within a day. It is supposed to be an audiovisual workstation, so I opted for Ubuntu Studio on the reinstall because it saves me a lot of package hunting and configuration14:01
lotuspsychjeunjustice1: ok no worrys, lets try booting a previous kernel as a test now14:01
lotuspsychjeunjustice1: reboot, enter grub, pick a previous kernel to boot14:01
unjustice1lotuspsychje: regular or recovery?14:02
lotuspsychjeregular and something lower then 6.514:02
unjustice1lotuspsychje: 6.2 it is14:03
lotuspsychjeok perfect14:03
unjustice1lotuspsychje: AHA! a GIANT cursor, guess it saved my previous selections14:03
lotuspsychjeunjustice1: great, so we proved your issue is a kernel thing14:04
unjustice1lotuspsychje: Indeed, I suppose I just need to select 6.2 each boot14:05
unjustice1lotuspsychje: thanks for the help14:05
lotuspsychjeunjustice1: well no, its not really safe to daily use previous kernels14:06
lotuspsychjeunjustice1: this was just a test to prove14:06
unjustice1lotuspsychje: I had a feeling you'd say that14:06
ravagedid not follow the whole thing? is this 22.04 on 6.2 now?14:07
lotuspsychjeunjustice1: what i would do, is file a bug against kernel 6.514:07
ravageoh 6.5 ok14:07
lotuspsychjeravage: he's on studio/kernel 6.514:07
unjustice1lotuspsychje: where do you suggest?14:07
lotuspsychje!bug | unjustice114:07
ubottuunjustice1: 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.14:07
unjustice1ubottu: thanks bot14:07
lotuspsychjeits gonna be hard from your 6.5 without mouse pointer, so maybe try from 6.214:08
unjustice1lotuspsychje: yeah, definitely14:09
lotuspsychjeunjustice1: so once your bug is created, you can attach your 6.5 dmesg to it14:09
lotuspsychjeor any other logs the devs will ask you14:10
unjustice1lotuspsychje: would you call this a installation, display, or other problem?14:11
lotuspsychjeunjustice1: not sure, something in a kernel commit needing fix14:11
lotuspsychjethats gonna be to the devs to seek on your bug ID14:12
lotuspsychjeor here with other volunteers14:12
lotuspsychjelet us know after you created your bug unjustice114:13
unjustice1lotuspsychje: ubuntu-bug <package> needs a package, but I am not sure what to associate with it14:13
lotuspsychjeunjustice1: the package is 'linux' (the kernel)14:13
lotuspsychjeunjustice1: but currently there's another bug preventing filing bugs against the kernel, its possible you might need to file it manualy from launchpad14:14
unjustice1lotuspsychje: submitted14:19
lotuspsychjeunjustice1: thank you for making ubuntu better and file your bug!14:19

ArchDavehttps://www.ctrl.blog/entry/gnome-text-editor-auto-save.html22:56
ArchDaveIt looks complicated.22:57
ArchDaveautomatic settings versus changed settings versus already saved once documents22:57
ArchDaveAND also that webpage is dated 2022-05-0422:59
JanCArchDave: ugh, so not only it's saving them in what I think is the wrong place, it's doing so even if you disable it, and then never deleting them?23:42
ArchDaveI read that page and still feel it's a mystery23:52
JanCI think the right place for such files would be under ~/.local/state/ instead of ~/.local/share/ according to https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html23:56
