[02:47] <MTecknology> dbungert: Were you able to also replicate the disk overwrite prompt when autoinstall is provided?
[02:52] <dbungert> MTecknology: security or all> yea, those are the options, sorry.  overwrite prompt> I do a lot of autoinstall testing and I haven't seen that prompt in a long time except when I expect to.  This one is not at all clear to me.  All I can think of is to confirm on the system being installed that it's actually there?  Quoting issues somehow?
[02:53] <MTecknology> I'm still typing out that line by hand on each installation attempt. I could be mistyping autoinstall, but I'd have to be doing it quite consistently
[02:53] <MTecknology> everything else seems to work as-if it's an autoinstall ...
[02:55] <MTecknology> dbungert: How much of your daily usage requires the user providing at least one piece of information but otherwise using autoinstall?
[02:59] <dbungert> much less common.  I'm usually testing something related to interactive behavior if I'm doing that.  Usually I automate everything so I can tab to the next window until test results are ready.
[02:59] <MTecknology> I /want/ to automate everything except the hostname ...
[02:59] <MTecknology> this installer doesn't seem to support that :(
[02:59] <dbungert> it's a solid feature request
[03:01] <MTecknology> I still don't understand what actual issue this was meant to resolve in the first place. For all these added bugs/issues, what actual benefit is there?
[03:06] <MTecknology> dbungert: To be clear ... that's not even "a prompt for just the hostname" ... that would be lovely, but adding that specific extra step to documentation is easy enough -> "You must provide matching passwords, but this value is unused; provide 'a' for each field."   The problem is that the other bugs keep the rest from working the way it's supposed to.
[03:08] <MTecknology> I'm also still having weird issues when I remove systemd-timesyncd as well. It gets flagged as removing a critical system package, even though that's definitely not critical and that's the *only* removal happening in that apt command.

[15:58] <znf> I keep wondering why did Ubuntu 22.04 change locale time to 12 hours time instead of 24 hours like it used to be in 20.04 and below
[16:06] <rbasak> znf: it depends on your locale setting. I'm not aware that there's a general change here. Are you sure you don't have a different locale setting to before?
[16:06] <znf> Very aware
[16:07] <znf> All my servers since at least 12.04 had en_US.UTF-8 set everywhere
[16:07] <znf> And suddenly the 22.04 locale changed it to 12 hour time
[16:07] <znf> There's a more thorough explanation/demo here: https://askubuntu.com/a/1500471
[16:14] <rbasak> The US uses 12 hour time though?
[16:14] <rbasak> If you don't want that, change your time locale to something else?
[16:19] <rbasak> Here's the change:
[16:19] <rbasak> https://git.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glibc/tree/localedata/locales/en_US#n123
[16:19] <rbasak> "At the end of 2018 it was adjusted to use 12H time (bug 24046) instead of 24H."
[16:19] -ubottu:#ubuntu-server- Bug 24046 in evolution (Ubuntu) "After upgrade, evolution frecuently crashes when sending email" [Medium, Fix Released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/24046
[16:20] <rbasak> (2018 upstream - it'd take some time to filter through to an Ubuntu release)
[16:21] <rbasak> Here's the upstream bug that resulted in the change: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=24046
[16:21] -ubottu:#ubuntu-server- sourceware.org bug 24046 in glibc "en_US locale doesn't define date_fmt" [Normal, Resolved: Fixed]
[16:23] <znf> yeah, I do understand that it got changed because the US is 12 usually
[16:23] <znf> Just slightly annoying to fix a bug after 20+ years 
[16:57] <sebokie> hello, on Ubuntu server 22.04.4 LTS the settings in /etc/hdparm.conf are not applied upon boot, what do I have to do to have them applied?
[21:03] <MTecknology> WTH? Which setting keeps causing my display to blank every few minutes?!
[21:08] <MTecknology> It feels like the terminal blanking timeout is getting into X, although I have absolutely no clue which setting it actually is. All the screensaver and other settings I can find are set to at least half an hour.
[22:22] <rfm> MTecknology, the settings that seem to get me are the X dpms (Power Management)  I seem to have to enable dpms but set all the timers to 0.
[22:33] <MTecknology> rfm: Thanks!! It was enabled, so I'm super hopeful that this is it. :D

[23:08] <MTecknology> Interesting; after running "xset s off -dpms" and sitting for a while, I lost the ability to provide keyboard input and it was like the up arrow was stuck down, except none of the typical fixes worked and I had to hold the power button 30 seconds
[23:08] <MTecknology> also ... when did the default change to 30 seconds??
[23:08] <MTecknology> s/default/delay/
[23:10] <trippeh> I've had it go to 30 seconds or so a few times, ignoring the gnome control panel setting, reboot "fixed" it
[23:13]  * MTecknology is using cinnamon
[23:14] <MTecknology> Which setting is that? (where is it found?)
[23:14] <trippeh> power -> screen blank
[23:15] <MTecknology> Ah, that might be Power > Turn off the screen when inactive for:
