[00:00] <Ricky_Rat5005> I'm not an expert by any means but if it's not mounted wouldn't it show in lsblk but not in df?
[00:00] <arkanoid> it seems to depend on something named udisksctl
[02:05] <Random6> I got debian xfce to bootup successfully on my crappy android tablet hahahaha
[02:06] <Random6> ^ I am surprised it works lool
[02:07] <JackFrost> ...Tablet?  I wouldn't expect Xfce to be best for that, their target is desktop (and they don't pretend one size fits all either.)
[02:09] <leftyfb> Random6: good luck. Please direct all further questions to #debian
[02:12] <Random6> :)
[02:13] <Random6> I also install ubuntu20 but I still have yet to boot

[04:10]  * enyc meows luckylinux 
[06:20] <vanessa> hi. I do not have root privilege on a machine. Is there a way to install snap applications for my personal use which need not be available to all users?
[06:20] <luckylinux> enyc: what's up :o ?
[06:21] <lotuspsychje> you need sudo to install packages on ubuntu vanessa
[06:23] <vanessa> then why does the snap directory is in my ~, not somewhere in /usr or something like that?
[06:23] <vanessa> do I need sudo to rw ~/snap ?
[06:24] <lotuspsychje> vanessa: why are you messing with a machine you dont have a password for anyway?
[06:27] <vanessa> I am not messing with any files I do not have access to. I just want to use a application. I don't want to compile it myself and put it in ~/.local/bin manually when it is already available in the repository.
[06:40] <ravage> You need root to install snaps or anything from the Ubuntu repositories 
[06:52] <vanessa> so, there is no other way to use a application than to compile it myself and put it in ~/.local/bin. bummer
[06:55] <vanessa> I hate it anytime I have to use the ubiquitus cmake command myself.
[06:57] <oerheks> no root? ask your administrator.
[06:57] <lotuspsychje> exactly
[06:58] <vanessa> administrator is a lazy asshole and will ask me a lot of question on why I need that package and why it cannot be done without and load of crap.
[07:00] <oerheks> good luck!
[07:00] <vanessa> https://github.com/inotify-tools/inotify-tools
[07:01] <vanessa> I just want to install this package so that I can do, `while true; do inotifywait -e close_write main.py; clear; time python main.py; done`
[07:02] <vanessa> I am used to this work flow when I write python code. I am not messing with anyother people's code.
[07:06] <Kon> vanessa: Ask your admin for a VM or container engine where you can control your dev environment
[08:56] <TomyWork> last week, I installed gimp-help-en (because the OS bugged me to do it) and since then, I couldn't open .ods documents from the KDE start menu anymore. turns out gimp-help-en dragged in a package called "wslu" because it needed a www-browser and, since all browsers are now snaps, none of the browser packages are installed by default anymore
[08:57] <TomyWork> so idk, the snaps are fine, but maybe still install the accompanying firefox/chromium-browser packages by default?
[10:02] <Lantizia> Can anyone remember the name of the Ubuntu policy that calls for some software to be more rapidly updated? (e.g. think Firefox before it was a snap)
[10:03] <Lantizia> I thought it was SRU, but possibly not
[10:06] <ogra_> Lantizia, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates
[11:37] <Haris_> how to re-scan for available disk volumes on ubuntu focal?
[11:50] <CosmicDJ> Haris_: partprobe?
[11:51] <CosmicDJ> Haris_: define volumes... lvm2?
[11:51] <Haris_> yes. it helps. but pvs, vgs, lvs then gives error about disks that were previously attached and not available now
[11:51] <Haris_> already on it
[11:51] <Haris_> (2) I have a ubuntu vm on vmware with single volume. this vol is 18G. Its LVM based. I extend this disk to 40G. Then I do the lvm extend part. for some reason the lvmextend doesn't go right. Is there a way to access this volume? on reboot the linux vm says it can't find this volume
[11:53] <CosmicDJ> did you write down what you were doing b4 you did a reboot? also don't mix up disks and volumes... is that a VM with a single disk or a single volume?
[11:57] <vanessa> hi, I am trying to mount a iso with `mount -o loop texlive.iso mnt` and I get the error `mount: mnt: failed to setup loop device for /home/vanessa/texlive.iso.`
[11:57] <vanessa> I have both texlive.iso and mnt director in my ~
[12:07] <vanessa> nevermind. I had forgotten to run it as sudo.
[12:19] <lacrymology> Hi. I'm trying to get sonic-pi (supercollider backend) to sound through the monitor speakers (HDMI out) and I can't. I'm using qjackctl. If I go to advanced setup and set capture from PCH and output to HDMI 3, it works, but the sound from sonic-pi is highly distorted. I'm not sure how to test something else
[13:45] <ph88> i put a script in /etc/cron.daily/ i didn't see it running yet. How can i check if it ran? Do i need to do anything special to make it run?
[13:50] <ioria> ph88, what's the script name ?
[14:00] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[14:14] <Lantizia> ogra_, yeah that's what I'm thinking it isn't?!
[14:14] <Lantizia> I think it was called something else
[14:16] <Lantizia> ogra_, ah!  It **was** called Micro Release Exceptions
[14:16] <Lantizia> but yeah I think it's not SRU as you say
[14:16] <Lantizia> but I looked through SRU and couldn't see things I'd have thought would be in it
[14:35] <dumbledoor> I installed the ffmpeg static build tarball and extracted the directory at /usr/local/ffmpeg. Then I symlinked ffmpeg and ffprobe to /usr/local/bin. Now the ffmpeg command is working perfectly, but `man ffmpeg` says No manual entry for ffmpeg. How do I get them to work. I can see the manpage files at /usr/local/ffmpeg/manpages but why aren't they
[14:35] <dumbledoor> accessible by `man ffmpeg`? What do I have to do?
[14:37] <leftyfb> dumbledoor: sudo apt install
[14:37] <dumbledoor> Where id I have to run this?
[14:37] <dumbledoor> Was I not supposed to symlink ffmpeg directly?
[14:38] <leftyfb> dumbledoor: remove everything you did and just run: sudo apt install ffmpeg
[14:38] <dumbledoor> oh sorry, now you must think i am a beginner
[14:38] <dumbledoor> now i get it you want me to run sudo apt insatall as a standalone command
[14:38] <dumbledoor> I thought you were telling me to run the `install` command
[14:39] <leftyfb> dumbledoor: that's the supported way of installing ffmpeg
[14:39] <dumbledoor> yeah but that's stuck at version 4
[14:39] <oerheks> if that tar comes without man ffmpeg.. read it online where you found that tar?
[14:39] <dumbledoor> the static build i downloaded is at 6
[14:39] <leftyfb> dumbledoor: why do you need 6?
[14:39] <dumbledoor> Ok, `sudo apt install` does not work.
[14:40] <dumbledoor> leftyfb stackoverflow said so
[14:40] <dumbledoor> oerheks they didn't mention there
[14:40] <dumbledoor> on the official website
[14:40] <dumbledoor> please tell me how to register /usr/local/ffmpeg/manpages into the man command on my system
[14:41] <leftyfb> dumbledoor: ok, if you don't have any particular reason you need 6 over 4, then 4 will work fine. Undo everything you did do far and run: sudo apt install ffmpeg
[14:41] <dumbledoor> why can't you tell me what I want?
[14:42] <leftyfb> dumbledoor: because it's not the way I recommend installing ffmpeg. It's not officially supported here and you will not receive updates for it
[14:42] <oerheks> sudo mandb # adds man pages from /usr/local/  to the collection
[14:42] <leftyfb> dumbledoor: you have yet to give a compelling reason you need that version over the one supported by Ubuntu
[14:43] <oerheks> but i guess it comes without
[14:43] <dumbledoor> by the way, here's the offical docs where they don't mention anything about registering to the man pages: https://www.johnvansickle.com/ffmpeg/faq/
[14:44] <dumbledoor> ok leftyfb, i can also do both of them together
[14:44] <dumbledoor> will use ubuntu's official one to read the man pages
[14:45] <tanath> if you want a newer and updateable ffmpeg you could install it with nix
[14:46] <leftyfb> !latest
[14:46] <oerheks> there are ffmpeg 5 and 6 ppa's, but i would not suggest to use them
[14:48] <oerheks> maybe you need to add the folder to manpath.. https://www.baeldung.com/linux/man-pages-manual-install
[14:48] <leftyfb> I would suggest just using the official ubuntu package unless you have a specific reason to use the 3rd party application, usually related to incompatibility or a critical bug. Neither of which apply here
[14:48] <oerheks> leftyfb, +1
[14:48] <leftyfb> This is a lot of effort for zero reward
[14:53] <tanath> not zero reward. newer versions wouldn't exist if they weren't different
[14:54] <leftyfb> tanath: if the person doesn't need bug fixes or features from the new version, there is zero reward
[14:54] <tanath> i repeat, newer versions wouldn't exist if they weren't different
[14:54] <leftyfb> if the official application from ubuntu works perfectly fine, there's zero reward in installing from source
[14:55] <tanath> new features and bug fixes are typical. and it's best to avoid bugs before you run into them
[14:55] <tanath> and you over-estimate how unstable newer packages are
[14:56] <oerheks> go wild, test next LTS 24.04, comes with FFmpeg 6
[14:56] <oerheks> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/noble/+package/ffmpeg
[17:51] <oerheks> yes
[17:51] <UbuntuUserGerman> Hi guys, I'm trying to update from  20.04 to 22.04. When I run do-release-upgrade, I'm getting "Err Upgrade tool  503  Service Unavailable [IP: 185.125.190.39 80] ......WARNING:root:file 'jammy.tar.gz' missing". What can I do?
[17:52] <UbuntuUserGerman> I can download the required file via wget, however
[17:57] <acer> teknofest kyk
[18:04] <UbuntuUserGerman> are there any known server problems right now?
[18:05] <lotuspsychje> UbuntuUserGerman: https://status.canonical.com/
[18:07] <oerheks> what happens when you try again?
[18:11] <UbuntuUserGerman> I get the same error
[18:11] <UbuntuUserGerman> I also tried switching to other mirrors
[18:14] <UbuntuUserGerman> What's so strange is that I can download the file in question using wget, only do-release-upgrade doesn't work
[18:14] <oerheks> network glitch, apparently
[18:15] <leftyfb> UbuntuUserGerman: try switching to a different mirror
[18:19] <oerheks> https://askubuntu.com/a/805182 , old answer for xenial, maybe it works on jammy too?
[18:32] <UbuntuUserGerman> oerheks, thanks. Tried that already
[18:32] <UbuntuUserGerman> leftyfb: I also tried switching mirrors. The strange thing is that I can actually download the file in question (http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/jammy-updates/main/dist-upgrader-all/current/jammy.tar.gz)
[18:36] <UbuntuUserGerman> there must be something in the update script that causes this
[18:37] <oerheks> if so, many would face the same problem, i have seen not.
[18:37] <ioria> UbuntuUserGerman, cat /etc/issue
[18:38] <UbuntuUserGerman> ioria: Output is only: Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS \n \l
[18:39] <ioria> UbuntuUserGerman, uname -r
[18:39] <UbuntuUserGerman> 5.15.0-94-generic
[18:42] <ioria> just a feeling, but for some reason it thinks it's eol
[18:44] <ioria> UbuntuUserGerman, cat /home/$USER/.cache/update-manager-core/meta-release-lts
[18:51] <UbuntuUserGerman> No such file or directory
[18:52] <ioria> UbuntuUserGerman, cat /var/lib/update-manager/meta-release-lts
[18:52] <oerheks> ioria, i think it is /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades
[18:53] <ioria> oerheks, yeah
[18:53] <UbuntuUserGerman> ioria: The url referenced for jammy is: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/jammy-updates/main/dist-upgrader-all/current/jammy.tar.gz (which I can download without problems)
[18:53] <oerheks> err /var/lib/update-manager/meta-release
[18:53] <oerheks> UbuntuUserGerman, you said you tried the url ..
[18:53] <oerheks> https://askubuntu.com/a/805182
[18:55] <ioria> UbuntuUserGerman, do you have some logs in /var/log/dist-upgrade/ ?
[18:56] <UbuntuUserGerman> sadly the directory is empty
[18:57] <UbuntuUserGerman> I have tried setting the URL to local in /var/lib/update-manager/meta-release, but after running do-release-upgrade, it seems to change it back to a remote URL
[19:00] <ioria> UbuntuUserGerman, is your sources.list  ok ? i mean default
[22:26] <esv> hey folks, I'm in a pickle, customer installed the minimal server and does not find shit, how can I get it to install the rest of the regular software for a server?
[22:27] <leftyfb> esv: sudo apt install ubuntu-server
[22:27] <leftyfb> esv: also, please watch the language
[22:27] <leftyfb> esv: why can't they just install the packages they are trying to run?
[22:28] <esv> ok, won't do it again
[22:28] <esv> for some reason the server can't find additional packages by name, trying a hail-mary here.
[22:28] <leftyfb> which packages? What release of ubuntu?
[22:29] <esv> dig , 20.04
[22:29] <leftyfb> esv: bind9-dnsutils is the package name
[22:30] <esv> thanks
[22:31] <esv> hey, I'm working on a chrooted environment but can't get the resolver to work, is there a particular trick to do it?
[22:32] <leftyfb> esv: why are you chrooted?
[22:32] <leftyfb> esv: the default resolver in ubuntu server 22.04 is systemd-resolved. Which won't be running in a chrooted environment
[22:32] <esv> original server won't boot in azure and need to install the specifc kernel
[22:33] <esv> need to find a way to download it and install
[22:33] <leftyfb> just try editing /etc/resolv.conf
[22:37] <esv> right, the default dns isn't working :D
[22:37] <leftyfb> esv: you mean the nameserver you are configuring in /etc/resolv.conf?
[22:39] <esv> right, they have a weird setup.
[22:39] <leftyfb> esv: can you ping it?
[22:41] <esv> nah, they're blocking it, not sure how ...
[22:41] <leftyfb> then DNS isn't your issue
[22:41] <leftyfb> contact Microsoft
[22:41] <esv> but went to the original server and found their DNS, got access to the repo servers now
[22:42] <esv> hence we're chatting
[22:43] <esv> the wireserver usually is the dns, unless they mock with it. which they have done

[23:41] <oerheks> tanath, it is not his password, just the verification code from email
[23:41] <purvesh> Yeah made mistake, logged in after 1-2 years so forgot
[23:41] <tanath> oh, right
