[18:54] atreo: it's a tool, not a configuration file [18:56] leftyfb: you miss understood what i am trying to do, i am trying to perform these settings changes from the terminal (so i can save it into a script) [18:57] atreo: gsettings is a command line tool that will do exactly what you're looking for [18:57] leftyfb: oh [18:57] hmmm ok, let me try to read about it [18:59] leftyfb: i can't seem to understand the manual page, how can i add keyboard shortcuts using gsettings? [19:00] it seems to be talking about key strokes [19:02] keyboard shortcuts are a 2 part process [19:03] gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.media-keys custom-keybindings "['/org/gnome/settings-daemon/plugins/media-keys/custom-keybindings/custom0/']" [19:03] that's part 1 [19:04] then defining the details of the custom sortuct [19:04] shortcut* [19:04] - gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.media-keys.custom-keybinding:/org/gnome/settings-daemon/plugins/media-keys/custom-keybindings/custom0/ name "nautilus" [19:04] - gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.media-keys.custom-keybinding:/org/gnome/settings-daemon/plugins/media-keys/custom-keybindings/custom0/ command "nautilus" [19:04] - gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.media-keys.custom-keybinding:/org/gnome/settings-daemon/plugins/media-keys/custom-keybindings/custom0/ binding "e" [19:04] leftyfb: ohhh ok i think i see how this works [19:04] ok let me try to understand what you just wrote give me 5 minutes :-) [19:05] atreo: if you add another shortcut, you need to run the 1st command again but append the 2nd custom shortcut (custom1) [19:05] hi === ghost is now known as Guest7551 [19:07] leftyfb: ok how do i findout what keyboard shortcuts i already have? so i can reverse engineer the commands you just wrote [19:08] gsettings get org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.media-keys custom-keybindings [19:09] leftyfb: i see [19:11] i see i have three shortcuts (as expected) nice custom0 custom1 custom2 [19:11] hwo do i print their content?

You need to append the new shortcuts [19:24] leftyfb: oh [19:25] leftyfb: what is the append flag?

That's how I setup my ubuntu environment, install all packages, configure everything and restore from backup [19:29] leftyfb: interesting, it is a program that you install or is it within ubuntu itself? [19:29] atreo: sudo apt install ansible [19:29] leftyfb: ok [19:30] leftyfb: but i want to stick with gsettings how do i know how to configure the rest of the settings? like Region & Langauge and adding a user picture etc... where are you getting/reading this complex information from? [19:30] atreo: ansible will use gsettings [19:32] atreo: dconf and dconf-editor are good tools to navigate and edit(not recommended) all the settings [19:32] i see [19:32] ansible is a program written in python. It is a provisioner. It install software based on scripts. Unlike shellscripts it is designed to enure that everything is just installed one so that if you run the script again and fix a mistake the stuff that was ok gets skipped and the stuff you corrected runs again (indepotent) [19:34] There are many others like it puppet, chef, saltstack.. [19:37] leftyfb: i like this basic control of it in gsettings how did you know the commands? for example how can i figure out the schema for (Region & Langauge)? [19:39] atreo: sudo update-locale LANG=$new_language [19:39] leftyfb: oh no, i don't use my local lanuage and format, because it is screwed up i used the UK one [19:40] atreo: you asked how you set your language. That's how [19:40] oh [19:40] for timezone: timedatectl set-timezone $timezone [19:40] with sudo [19:40] i see [19:42] leftyfb: how do i find out what is my current (update-locale) settings? [19:43] since langauge is LAN what is format? FOR? FORM? FORMAT? [19:43] *LANG [19:44] leftyfb: its ok i figured it out === les_ is now known as roger_UK [19:50] leftyfb: ok how about appearance settings scheme? to change it from light to dark, where is that schema?

[19:55] yes. or for a specific accent color Yaru-blue-dark [19:55] ravage: nice [19:55] ravage: ok here is an important question gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.notifications KEY how do i know what are all the available keys are?

I'm wondering if i can start one for screen that when it terminates so does the terminal? [20:34] so that if i detach screen remotely i dont have extra sessions [20:36] you can write and install an xdg desktop file which runs gnu screen and executes it in a terminal emulator [20:54] This is probably an easy question. I have a second partition set up. But, it seems i need to access (as in clicking it) it in nautilus/filemanager every time i restart my computer for Steam being able to see/discover it. [20:55] s/being/to be/ [20:55] put it in fstab? [20:55] with proper permissions for steam [20:55] hmm.. not that i can remember. Never used fstab [20:55] https://askubuntu.com/questions/1489018/grant-steam-snap-access-to-second-hard-drive [20:56] thanks [20:57] Steam snap should have the removable drive permission by default. [20:57] see settings > applications > steam [20:57] okok. There was no mention of this mount in fstab, so maybe that's it [20:57] maybe one bit wrong, and wont automount [20:57] Square: you can list your devices with -> lsblk <- once you know which device it's, you can use -> sudo blkid <- to get its UUID to be used in the /etc/fstab file for "automounting" [20:58] Gotcha.
