[00:01] <Pruners> https://askubuntu.com/questions/180312/is-it-possible-to-assign-shortcuts-to-launch-applications
[00:02] <Pruners> that's 11 yr old post, I don't even know what the "super" key is....
[00:03] <oerheks> "I want to return to the Terminal window I was just using" - alt + tab
[00:04] <oerheks> only if that terminal window is not closed.
[00:05] <Pruners> Alt + Tab + T opens Terminal, but a new window, which doesn't get me back to my work...
[00:06] <Alagar> #india
[00:06] <Pruners> I said wrong.  I mean Alt + Ctrl + T
[00:07] <Pruners> Yes, Alt + Tab is my favorite all time keyboard command, and it works on Mac, Windows, and Linux!@
[00:07] <Pruners> However, if there's a bunch of open windows it gets tedious and demanding to work through them all.
[00:09] <oerheks> on gnome windows + 1 shows the 10 short keys
[00:09] <oerheks> maybe if terminal is 1, you could bring it to focus?
[00:10] <oerheks> terminal is one on your panel*
[00:12] <Pruners> HMM I feel like I'm in a foreign country I don't know the language... but i used Ubuntu 3 yrs now...
[00:17] <Pruners> here's a 30-second vid about the shortcut I mentioned;  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=phdKj3z2xm8&pp=ygU5dWJ1bnR1IEN0cmwrQWx0K1Qgc2hvdyB0aGUgdGVybWluYWwgdGhhdCBpcyBhbHJlYWR5IG9wZW4_
[00:26] <Pruners> Super is the Windows key
[00:28] <leftyfb> Pruners: that video shows how to create a CTRL+ALT+T shortcut to open gnome-terminal. Some that is already setup by default in the default install of ubuntu desktop and also what you said isn't sufficient for your needs
[00:28] <leftyfb> Pruners: I don't know of any shortcut that will open your last active terminal window other than ALT+TAB
[00:34] <tomreyn> a bit of an ugly workaround (there are likely better approaches) would be to run    gnome-terminal --tab    ("Open a new tab in the last-opened window with the default profile"), then close this new tab, which should bring you back to where you left off.
[00:35] <JanC> "gnome-terminal --tab" will open a new tab in the last active terminal window, if that is what you want
[00:35] <JanC> eh
[00:35] <tomreyn> :)
[00:35] <Pruners> I just found From settings -> keyboard -> keyboard shortcuts -> additional keyboard shortcuts you can add a keyboard shortcut for a command.
[00:35] <JanC> yes
[00:36] <leftyfb> Pruners: you mean just like the video you posted?
[00:36] <Pruners> I don't know the language commands used there... I'd like to add more, one for Sublime text editor, how would I do it?  does anyone know?
[00:37] <Pruners> Hmmm I don't know how the command I mentioned before works... technically,...  Alt + Ctrl + T   but since that one opens a new window, I don't care to learn more about how that particular command is implemented, since it doesn't serve my need.
[00:39] <leftyfb> gnome-terminal --tab just keeps opening new windows for me
[00:39] <oerheks> switch to tab 1 - alt+1
[00:40] <leftyfb> terminator --new-tab does open a new tab in the existing open window but doesn't bring it to focus
[00:40] <leftyfb> oerheks: gnome-terminal --tab  just opens a new window
[00:40] <oerheks> or just dont open too much windows
[00:40] <leftyfb> I don't, just trying to replicate the suggestion solutions
[00:40] <oerheks> open terminal on next workspace.
[00:41] <leftyfb> I don't personally have a need for any of this
[00:41] <oerheks> me neither, actually
[00:41] <leftyfb> I tend to only have 1 terminal window open ... usually with 1 or 2 tab, sometimes up to 3 or 4 but not usually
[00:41] <leftyfb> but each tab usually has the window split a few times in either direction :)
[00:42] <leftyfb> and to get back I ALT+TAB till I see the black window highlighted
[00:46] <Pruners> hmm
[00:47] <Pruners> I wonder if there's a guide to understanding that command language used in From settings -> keyboard -> keyboard shortcuts -> additional keyboard shortcuts you can add a keyboard shortcut for a command.
[00:47] <leftyfb> Pruners: there's no "command language" you just type the name of the program you want the shortcut to run
[00:48] <Pruners> I'll try...
[01:16] <Pruners> Thank you
[01:17] <Pruners> I'll try again tomorrow
[02:40] <alecsmelo> Hi there
[02:47] <oerheks> :-)
[02:49] <alecsmelo> so, which kind of talking still rolling here
[02:49] <oerheks> support, but low on friday night
[02:50] <alecsmelo> sure
[02:52] <alecsmelo> are you using nala as a solution to apt, its running?
[02:57] <oerheks> Not me, nala is available in univere
[02:58] <alecsmelo> but does read something good about the project?
[02:59] <oerheks> just a tool for apt, not snaps, i guess
[02:59] <oerheks> multi tread download, not needed in ages.
[02:59] <alecsmelo> I got it
[03:00] <oerheks> it is no war anymore, apt-get over aptitude
[03:00] <oerheks> apt is superiour
[03:02] <harish> Hi
[03:02] <alecsmelo> isnt about war or something else, i just learned about nala at a uk page, but without snap or flatpak, sound unuseful
[03:05] <oerheks> !info nala jammy
[03:05] <oerheks> oh mantic does
[03:05] <oerheks> !info nala mantic
[03:07] <harish> Ho w to fuck a girl
[03:07] <oerheks> !ops
[03:54] <viva> hi all, had a debian crash on a tower dual (now tri-booting) windows/debian, im shrinking the windows partition and adding ubuntu, i just got a error installing "apt-dpkg-install-zcrh4i/74-linux-hwe-6.5-headers-6.5.0-26_6.5.0-26.26~22.04.1_all.deb corrupted fs tarfile in package archive: invalid tar header checksum
[03:56] <viva> it appears this might be a dependency and can be corrected with apt --fix-broken install ?
[03:57] <oerheks> not sure ..
[03:57] <oerheks> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PackageManagerTroubleshootingProcedure
[03:58] <lotuspsychje> viva: your full apt logs in a paste might help perhaps?
[03:58] <viva> i just took a quick glance, should i finish install then follow the suggestions?
[03:58] <viva> im installing ubuntu baremetal from usb
[03:59] <oerheks> autoclean, update lists and try again
[03:59] <viva> from an interceding terminal or after the install finishes?
[03:59] <oerheks> oh from usb, best is start over again
[04:00] <viva> feck!
[04:00] <viva> ok so something corrupted during writing?
[04:00] <oerheks> you'll be back in here in 15 minutes?
[04:00] <oerheks> viva, if this keeps happening, run memtest
[04:00] <viva> i should be, ill need to pop over to windows try and re-write the usb image, perhaps using a diff usb stick if i can find one then return when i get back to this point
[04:01] <viva> or maybe i can find a spare usb and write it with dd here
[04:01] <viva> well.... i wonder if i can find a place to put it let me see what i got going on
[04:01] <oerheks> could work, yes
[04:01] <Bashing-om> !sha256sum
[04:02] <oerheks> !md5sum
[04:02] <viva> ah, classic mistake.
[04:02] <Ximo> md5 O_o
[04:02] <oerheks> but 256 is a better choice indeed
[04:02] <viva> thanks for reminding me... im too old to be forgetting to do that
[04:02] <Ximo> do not trust md5 hash
[04:02] <oerheks> but the iso would be verified with dd,.. weird
[04:03] <viva> i wrote it in windows with rufus
[04:03] <viva> im being lazy and pissed
[04:03] <viva> i had a kali install that i was trying to use like ubuntu and it t0rched
[04:04] <viva> btw is ubuntu using wayland? i have had two separate debian based installs utilizing wayland behave poorly (correlation is by no means causation) but im startng to get leery
[04:05] <viva> or is wayland a kde only thing? sorry all that GUI stuff is outside my wheelhouse... this appears to be gnome
[04:06] <oerheks> no.
[04:06] <oerheks> just start over, you could have been halfway now
[04:08] <viva> kk
[04:15] <moonstrike> How do I get in?
[04:16] <oerheks> moonstrike, dunno, do not share password.
[04:18] <moonstrike> am i already in? it asked for a password..
[04:18] <oerheks> the 1st account created, is also root ..
[04:19] <oerheks> so, your password, or if you login automaticly, think hard, or
[04:19] <oerheks> !password
[04:19] <oerheks> see lostpassword
[04:20] <moonstrike> i meant this irc group thing
[04:20] <oerheks> oh that password/registration
[04:20] <oerheks> join #libera for that
[04:20] <oerheks> email accept something
[04:21] <moonstrike> i was on kali linux for my first time trying linux i messed somthing up bad now i switched to lubuntu
[04:21] <oerheks> we do accept volunteers, register on launchpad
[04:55] <viva> ok back, wrote a sha256 verified image to a diff usb using dd and just now getting back to it, hopefully for real this time
[04:58] <Bashing-om> viva: \o/
[05:01] <viva> any suggestions for getting a windows style taskbar at the bottom of the screen? i'd be happy if the left mount panel and the activity panel could be combined into one on the lower portion of the screen windows style. thats always been a struggle for me with gnome
[05:02] <viva> brb final reboot
[05:17] <viva> ok the install was a success, i'd like to get VS Community installed, do you suggest i install it via apt or the website? (Or this "ready to go!" popup which has a code (vscode?) icon
[05:17] <xangua> viva: sound like a more traditional desktop would be more appealing to you
[05:17] <viva> yes, i had a gnome extension that seemed to work well i just dont remember the name
[05:22] <viva> hmm maybe im mistaken and only vscode is available for ubuntu? swore i saw a msdoc maybe i didnt read it careful enough
[05:23] <lotuspsychje> !info plank | viva
[05:24] <viva> thx taking a look
[06:54] <CosmicDJ> any idea how I could fix this? "dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/ksmbd-tools_3.5.1-1build1_amd64.deb (--unpack): unable to open '/usr/lib/systemd/system/ksmbd.service.dpkg-new': No such file or directory"

[13:48] <BtbN> Is there some issue with cmake in the 24.04 repos? A simple apt-get install cmake fails: cmake : Depends: cmake-data (= 3.28.3-1) but 3.28.3-1build5 is to be installed

[14:39] <vlm> tomreyn, thanks when i tried with lts release it worked, just i tried some other earlier release also and it also didnt work and also not the noble one
[14:40] <tomreyn> vlm: i'm afraid i don't have a direct response to your question, only the suggestion i provided in -next
[17:27] <viva> last night a few helpful fellas here helped me sort a botched ubuntu install (that was supposed to help relieve my torched kali install, which i had been using as a debian install). everytthing went well but after the ubuntu install wizard finished it said to restart and i got sent back to kali's grub loader with debian missing... effed around in
[17:27] <viva> the grub cli for a few not having any luck but was able to get far enough back into my kali install to run update-grub cmd and ubuntu was detected and listed
[17:28] <viva> say all that to say that im trying to fully get rid of the kali install, get rid of kali's grub (or just reset it to defaults?) and  ultimately delete the partitions and return the disk space
[17:28] <viva> anyone know what the best way to go about that is?
[17:28] <viva> errr.. kali install that i had been using the way one would use an ubuntu install (office, browser, etc.)***
[17:29] <viva> i had tried to be a cool kid and customize my grub loader with fancy wallpapers and text color and fonts and stuff and i realize when i got sent to grub cli it was a pinstripped walpaper on a white text background, couldnt read a thing. so hoping to either torch that and reinstall from scratch or figure a way to default it back to default settings
[17:31] <usu> quyit
[17:31] <usu> quit
[17:37] <rfm> viva, would it just be easier to back up your user data somewhere and do a fresh "erase whole disk" install from the installation disk?
[17:39] <viva> man it sure would but the windows install is what im fretting over... it just takes so long -_-
[17:39] <viva> i may end up having to go ahead with that tho >_<
[17:39] <viva> sorry i didnt clearly mention the issue
[17:39] <viva> i had a dual boot kali/windows running... kali b0rked and i decided to go with ubuntu this time
[17:40] <viva> since i was using kali like one would use ubuntu anywatys
[17:47] <rfm> viva, if you can boot into the ubuntu install, you could try running grub-install /dev/<whole disk> and then update-grub from there. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Installing is kinda old but looks ok to me (not that I've had to do this since I gave up on multi-boot systems ages ago)
[17:54] <rfm> viva, also I think this is the case where you want to reenable os-prober before update-grub:
[17:54] <rfm> viva https://askubuntu.com/questions/1502947/how-to-enable-it-when-grub-disable-os-prober gives instructions
[20:59] <Grapefruit2003> hi, currently i am using a Celeron n4020 and 4gig ddr4 ram, its enough for Lubuntu, but will the new kernel Noble Numbat need more powerful specs?
[21:00] <rbox> Grapefruit2003: why do you think the answer here is going to be different?
[21:01] <jeremy31> Grapefruit2003: Double the RAM
[21:01] <jeremy31> Grapefruit2003: I see bad reviews for that CPU
[21:06] <Grapefruit2003> yeah I'll probably get an 11th gen i3 w 8gb ddr4
[22:03] <Mr_Queue> I've been off IRC for a while now. Where did all the kiddos go? Discord? I am surprised this channel is this idle.
[22:07] <novaTopFlex> "sudo dpkg --add-architecture arm64" succeeds, but the following "sudo apt update" command results in "Ign:" at the beginning of every line involving the foreign arm64 architecture. How do I fix this?
[22:09] <oerheks> Ign ignore ..
[22:10] <oerheks> that means it is ignored, not found, so it carries on, no worries
[22:11] <oerheks> but to be sure, pastebin the full output?
[22:11] <oerheks> if it happens with other repos than ours, hard to tell
[22:24] <Mr_Queue> Probably lines in /etc/apt/sources.list can be removed.

[22:44] <pycurious> https://developers.yubico.com/SSH/Securing_SSH_with_FIDO2.html - I'm trying to generate a ssh key for my yubikey, and keep getting this error from this command : ssh-keygen -t ed25519-sk -O resident -O application=ssh:raider -O verify-required —> Key enrollment failed: device not found —> Any ideas on how to fix this? ykman info - shows yubikey detected and fido2 enabled
[22:44] <rbox> sounds like a question for yubico if their instructions are faulty
[22:46] <pycurious> I was hoping - Perhaps someone here uses yubikey on ubuntu.
[22:50] <Mr_Queue> I'd just make a key and skip all the fun jazz someone that probably doesn't know anything about decided would be good options. Then copy the key over.
[23:46] <nunya> suddenly I can't write to my usb flash drive. When I try to change permissions I get error can't change permissions read only file system. How do I get this back to a writeable drive without losing data?
[23:46] <rbox> its probaly corrupt or dead
[23:47] <rbox> yo ucould try unplugging it and replugging it
[23:48] <nunya> rbox: I've tried ejecting and replugging it. The files can be opened just none edited or added to flash drive
[23:48] <rbox> probably corrupt fielsystem
[23:49] <rbox> you could try running fsck
[23:49] <rbox> but it might make it work
[23:49] <rbox> worse*
[23:52] <nunya> rbox: fsck and what options mount point is /media/nunya/128_GB/
[23:52] <rbox> whatever the devicce is
[23:52] <leftyfb> nunya: it's a flash drive, I would recommend backing up what you can from it and spending $10 for a new one
[23:53] <nunya> leftyfb: more like $20 but I hear you. Thanks
