[00:05] <ashafq> Has anyone able to feed gnome-calendar with iCloud account?
[01:42] <chico_> So, how does this work?
[01:43] <sarnold> just like that :)
[01:43] <sarnold> you ask a question and hang out for a while and if someone knows, they'll reply
[01:44] <chico_> got it, thanks! :)
[01:52] <chico_> App images(like or dislike)?
[01:53] <sarnold> they're usually big blobs of binary things supplied by someone else, i'm not a fan
[01:53] <sarnold> but loads of people seem to like them, so maybe i'm in the wrong on this
[01:55] <chico_> True, I use them but it's because I can store them on usb to save hard drive space without the need of installing from deb
[01:55] <rbox> i like big blobs and i can not lie
[01:56] <sarnold> app images usually bundle all their libraries etc.. a deb will probably re-use *some* of the libraries you've already got installed
[01:56] <leftyfb> chico_: this more of a support channel. If you would like to have other discussions, feel free to /join #ubuntu-discuss or #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:56] <sarnold> rbox: hehe
[02:00] <chico_> ok,guess this is as bad as askubuntu
[02:30] <mrcoffee> Hi there
[02:30] <mrcoffee> Booting in ubuntu using a previous kernel fixed the issue.
[02:30] <mrcoffee> Still would be cool to be able to use tha latest one.
[02:30] <mrcoffee> Guess its in the works.
[02:47] <Guest3913> I am trying to setup a VPN for the first time in Ubuntu Studio, anyone familiar with how to do this?
[04:35] <sem> Do you have all the info needed to connect?
[05:06] <P1ro> Hi, i was messing with limits.conf and 99-sysctl.conf, i lose access over local keyboard, any user or even root, i can only access tru ssh and user, but sudo su dont work ( su: cannot open session: Cannot make/remove an entry for the specified session ) i can sudo -i or sudo root /bin/bash, i set all files back to default (from a backup) but i cant still access local, only ss and still cant "sudo su"
[05:06] <P1ro> also try to create a new user, but same issue
[05:14] <sem> Can you backup data and reinstall?
[05:15] <P1ro> sem: yes i could, but i wanna know why this is happening
[05:23] <sem> I am not smart enough to know ... Maybe if you describe it on askubuntu more people will get a chance to see it P1ro
[05:23] <P1ro> sem using ubuntu
[06:21] <Menzador> P1ro: Why do you want to do [ sudo su ]?
[06:22] <P1ro> Menzador: is not all about sudo su, its about the issue, whici is not letting me login from local
[06:22] <P1ro> only tru ssh
[06:23] <Menzador> Why did you mess with limits.conf and 99-sysctl.conf?
[06:23] <Menzador> What was your intent?
[06:23] <P1ro> im doing stress test
[06:25] <Menzador> If you're just doing a CPU stress test, mprime would've done the trick
[06:27] <Menzador> At any rate, if you still have SSH access to the system, as a user in the sudo group, you may be able to restore things as they were
[06:33] <Menzador> I assume this persists across a reboot?
[06:36] <P1ro> Menzador: yes, persist atfer reboots
[06:37] <P1ro> Menzador: yes, i can access with ssh and sudo -i or sudo -u root /bin/bash
[06:38] <Menzador> And you said you restored the original configuration files from a backup, correct?
[06:39] <P1ro> Menzador: yes, i have commented the lines i have changed in the past, still trying to figure if there is something i have restore, even made a python script to compare files with backup
[08:20] <bleusman> can i have my money back ?
[08:21] <bleusman> a compensation for all the ciggarets i smoked and coffee i drank to understand this web
[08:45] <webchat60> hi
[08:45] <webchat60> I want to report a problem in latest ubuntu
[08:48] <CosmicDJ> webchat60: https://help.ubuntu.com/stable/ubuntu-help/report-ubuntu-bug.html.en
[09:00] <lotuspsychje> webchat60: we strongly reccomend to describe your issue here in the chat first before filing bugs
[09:00] <lotuspsychje> webchat60: please also mention your ubuntu release
[10:26] <antid> is there a way to use the altgr keyboard layout where I compose stuff like è only when I am holding altgr+` instead of just pressing `?
[10:26] <antid> ideally, I can press ´s to get 's and then altgr+' then s to get ś
[10:27] <antid> I think I have this set up on my other computer, but I'm not sure how I did it
[10:40] <lotuspsychje> antid: you want to map keys to something else?
[10:51] <antid> I don't think so. I just want altgr to be an 'activating key' for dead keys
[10:52] <antid> I have this set up not in gnome on another computer, but it seems like the US intl. dead keys and US alt intl. keyboard layouts don't match what I was expecting
[10:53] <lotuspsychje> antid: so you want to remap a dead key to altgr right?
[10:53] <lotuspsychje> make it work again
[12:28] <ph88^> I'm trying to make a systemd timer these are the files i have created https://bpa.st/ZIHA i have put the systemd .service and .timer file in /etc/systemd/system  I don't see the timer show up when i do systemctl list-timers   how can i install the timer correctly so that it shows up and runs?
[12:30] <lotuspsychje> !systemd | ph88^
[13:29] <Guest44> I fresh installed ubuntu-server 22.04 lts. After installing nvidia drivers with one gpu everything worked ok. After adding another three my boot gets stuck. "i915 0000:00:02:0: enabling device (0000 -> 0003)"
[13:29] <Guest44> And doesnt move anywhere, what to do ?
[13:30] <Guest44> if I add "nomodeset" to grub config I can boot the server but it doesnt have a functioning network manager
[13:30] <Guest44>  no internet
[13:35] <CosmicDJ> another three what? drivers? gpu cards?
[13:40] <Guest44> gpu cards
[13:42] <Guest6254> hi
[13:42] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[13:43] <Guest6254> hi
[13:43] <Guest6254> whats up
[14:02] <Guest44> ok strangely it started working after bios update, even though there was no mention of i915 there just  uefi vuln fixes in description
[14:03] <Guest44> man fixing things is like black magic sometimes
[14:03] <Guest44> black as in black box
[14:21] <peirik> Is it possible to exempt files from certain directories from being included in recorded file history? I know I can disable file history completely in Settings->Privacy, but I would like to be able to say that any files accessed under /some/path should not be recorded/logged.
[15:11] <Walex> peirik: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1292868/how-to-exclude-certain-file-types-or-paths-from-recently-used-files-recent
[15:21] <peirik> Walex: thanks, so it doesn't seem to be possible? but it was before? thats too bad
[15:56] <ravage> just for the record: tracker should respect a .trackerignore file and not index that directory. works like a .gitignore file
[16:43] <xrandr> Hello. I was wondering if anyone can help me create a XFS filesystem ontop of a ZFS pool. I am using Ubuntu 22.4
[16:44] <ravage> That sounds like a not so great idea. But what is the problem?
[16:45] <xrandr> I have a storage server that has 7 3.84 TB drives in it. I created a zpool with the drives in it as a RAIDZ2. I need to install XFS over it so that Veeam can use its fast cloning ability\
[16:49] <ravage> zfs create -s -V 50G ssd/xfs_data; mkfs.xfs /dev/zvol/ssd/xfs_data
[16:50] <ravage> ssd is the pool name. and you maybe want a different size
[16:51] <ravage> also -s is sparse. so if you want to really reserve the whole space dont use that
[17:06] <xrandr> thank you
[17:09] <ashafq> Is Gnome calendar default on Ubuntu 24.04?
[17:09] <lotuspsychje> !next | ashafq
[17:10] <oerheks> yes, gnome calendar is available standard for years now
[17:10] <oerheks> but lotuspsychje is correct, join #next for support
[17:10] <leftyfb> ashafq: you were told 3 days ago to seek support for unreleased versions of ubuntu in #ubuntu-next. It was also recommended not to install it unless you are interested in finding and reporting bugs
[17:12]  * oerheks makes a note
[17:24] <ashafq> Did anyone make Gnome calendar work with iCloud account?
[17:24] <ashafq> leftyfb, thanks for your reply.
[17:25] <leftyfb> ashafq: https://www.reddit.com/r/gnome/comments/nzi1p1/comment/h1pm2td/
[17:25] <leftyfb> not sure if it works
[17:25] <ashafq> leftyfb, I saw that tutorial and that did not work.
[17:25] <leftyfb> ashafq: personally, I don't use the icloud calendar, I add my google calendars to my iphone as good is more portable
[17:26] <leftyfb> good/google
[17:29] <oerheks> iCloud offers a CalDAV format, so yes
[17:31] <ashafq> oerheks: it's been crashing my gnome calendar. Maybe I should update it or compile a newer version?
[17:32] <oerheks> update what ubuntu version?
[17:32] <leftyfb> ashafq: first test the URL you have on another client. See if it works before assuming the issue is with gnome calendar
[17:32] <ashafq> leftyfb: works on thunderbird.
[17:32] <oerheks> also evolution works with icloud calendar.
[17:33] <leftyfb> then I would file a bug with gnome calendar
[17:34] <xrandr> ravage: you are awesome. Thank you so much!
[17:35] <ashafq> https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-calendar/-/tags/41.2 this is the version I have installed.
[17:35] <ashafq> I doubt I can just update gnome-calendar without updating Gnome
[17:35] <ravage> https://snapcraft.io/gnome-calendar
[17:36] <leftyfb> ashafq: I would first look at the later versions to see if the bug has even been addressed
[17:36] <oerheks> 41.2 kinetic?
[17:36] <leftyfb> 41.2-3 is jammy
[17:36] <leftyfb> the snap is 44.1
[17:36] <ravage> or 45.1
[17:37] <leftyfb> edge channel?
[17:37] <ravage> candidate
[17:38] <leftyfb> I don't think the snap is going to work
[18:46] <Jantz> Hi guys sup hows it going? Whats cooking?
[18:46] <oerheks> :-)
[18:50] <gtoyman22> working on a GUI glanscan in PyGTK4.
[18:54] <Jantz> front end noice tonnes of args and params yeah?
[18:55] <gtoyman22> it only uses 10% shell command code, rest is python3
[18:56] <gtoyman22> https://ibb.co/ZSPK03S
[18:56] <gtoyman22> https://github.com/sprokkel78/glanscan
[19:00] <Jantz> python nice yeah I went to a pycon when I first started programming holy moly that blew my mind
[19:00] <oerheks> !ot
[19:00] <Jantz> Ubuntu C kernel or hybrid?
[19:07] <itai> Can we prune, delete unused snap packages? Snap keeps several versions of some packages.
[19:09] <oerheks> itai, yes you can, limit it to 2 versions >> sudo snap set system refresh.retain=2
[19:09] <oerheks> or 1, go wild?
[19:09] <oerheks> i would keep it at 2
[19:10] <ashafq> anyone know about this package?
[19:10] <ashafq> libedataserverui4-1.0-dev
[19:10] <oerheks> !find libedataserverui4-1.0-dev
[19:11] <itai> oerheks: thank you. after that I should run 'snap refresh'
[19:11] <oerheks> google launchpad?
[19:11] <oerheks> itai, yes, or run the update gui
[19:11] <itai> we don't have an autoremove command.
[19:11] <itai> oerheks: thanks ;)
[19:11] <ashafq> !find libedataserverui4-1.0
[19:12] <ashafq> How do I install it?
[19:12] <oerheks> where did you read that ashafq ?
[19:13] <ashafq> oerheks: Trying to build gnome-calendar from source
[19:13] <ashafq> and it needs that library
[19:13] <oerheks> it is not in our repos
[19:14] <oerheks> err it is
[19:14] <ashafq> https://packages.ubuntu.com/lunar-updates/i386/libs/libedataserverui4-1.0-0 is this in the next release?
[19:14] <oerheks> !find libedataserverui4-1.0-dev mantic
[19:15] <oerheks> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/mantic/amd64/libedataserverui4-1.0-0
