[00:06] <tomreyn> telgareith: sudo efibootmgr -v
[00:06] <tomreyn> telgareith: then check which "Bootnnnn" record is the right one
[00:07] <telgareith> dual boot works, I just want to be able to tell the machine to reboot into windows without touching it
[00:07] <tomreyn> then: sudo efibootmgr -n nnnn
[00:07] <tomreyn> and then reboot
[00:07] <tomreyn> the 'nnnn' are numbers
[00:08] <tomreyn> i understood what you're trying to do.
[00:11] <telgareith> oh
[00:11] <telgareith> I misunderstood you then
[00:11] <telgareith> and checking, but windows decided now was good for updates
[00:16] <tomreyn> while this is was a rather generic question, if you'll have questions regarding "noble" (to be 24.04 LTS), please ask in #ubuntu-next until release. thanks.
[01:08] <pycurious> On 24.04lts - apt update - > Warning: The unit file, source configuration file or drop-ins of apt-news.service changed on disk. Run 'systemctl daemon-reload' to reload units. - any ideas on how to fix this?

[01:30] <NERD> ller
[01:31] <NERD> how is everyone
[04:57] <akik> telgareith: if you need to modify the uefi boot order while in windows, you can do it with bcdedit https://atkdinosaurus.wordpress.com/2023/12/04/how-to-change-uefi-boot-order-in-windows/
[06:08] <akik> telgareith: there's also the possibility that the uefi firmware has its own mind which efi file to boot
[06:43] <davidicus> Anyone having problem tranferring files like backups to another drive? I have a drive that was partitioned and formatted during install to make sure I had a place to keep them. but I can't copy to that drive. I've done even "sudo dolphin" and get "Executing Dolphin with sudo is not possible due to unfixable security vulnerabilities." as a result. It doesn't make much sense to make backups if one can't store them safely on another drive.
[06:50] <akik> davidicus: you just need to change the ownership on the another drive's dirs
[06:51] <akik> davidicus: sudo chown -R $USER and_the_dir_here
[06:55] <amosbird> Hello, I'm trying to do install clang-18 on my arm ubuntu but get this error : clang-18 : Depends: libclang-common-18-dev (= 1:18.1.0~++20240302042201+461274b81d86-1~exp1~20240302162234.64) but 1:18.1.0~++20240220094926+390dcd4cbbf5-1~exp1~20240220214944.50 is to be installed.
[06:55] <amosbird> Does this mean the llvm upstream is broken?

[11:34] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[12:29] <mdmbkr> the gddrescue package shows up in “apt search” on my 22.04 server but not on the bootable “try Ubuntu”, how do I gain access to that package
[12:30] <mdmbkr> alternately is there a more appropriate data recovery environment I can boot from usb
[12:42] <mdmbkr> ‘add-apt-repository universe’ made it available, yay
[12:53] <pragmaticenigma> mdmbkr: https://www.system-rescue.org/ might be a better tool overall with gddrescue and other recovery tools already included
[13:50] <mdmbkr> nice! thank you
[13:51] <mdmbkr> so uh .. not really relevant to ubuntu but I had a drive act up and then seemingly rapidly deteriorate to a point where linux can't even connect to it as a block device
[13:52] <mdmbkr> I'm about to give up entirely on trying to recover anything from it but it's a failure mode I've never seen before, the drive doesn't seem like it's even attempting to respond to commands
[13:52] <mdmbkr> it spins up, the heads thrash for about 2 minutes, and then it keeps spinning but no further activity
[13:54] <mdmbkr> ATA is able to get a device name from it, but then it either hangs indefinitely (ubuntu live) or errors out "too" rapidly, in any case it'll never show up eg in 'fdisk -l', ddrescue got 0 bytes (but spanned the whole drive in about 2 minutes)
[13:55] <mdmbkr> I guess I'm wonder aloud if there's some kind of firmware safe mode where the drive shuts itself down after enough errors to prevent further damage, or if perhaps the firmware itself got zapped
[13:55] <mdmbkr> is it even a thing any more to swap the logic board from another disk?
[13:58] <ravage> Try #hardware
[14:04] <mdmbkr> =)
[15:55] <davidicus> This is a bit old-school but years ago whe all we had was mechanical drives, of one was failing bad, we'd wrap them up good in plastic  and stick them in the freezer for about 24 hours or so. It did something to them that allowwed them to be accee
[15:55] <davidicus> ..ssable for a while until they warmed up
[15:55] <lotuspsychje> not really a topic for here davidicus
[15:56] <davidicus> ok, I was just trying to help
[16:00] <mdmbkr> davidicus: thanks for sharing that =)
[16:44] <donofrio__> Does anyone know why this sources.list is pointing to archive and shoudln't it point to somewhere else? https://paste.opensuse.org/pastes/82a6f2212e98
[16:48] <pragmaticenigma> donofrio__: that is normal
[16:48] <JanC> why should it point elsewhere?
[16:51] <JanC> (also, #ubuntu-next is a channel specific to the development release)
[17:03] <donofrio__> JanC, ok tnx
[17:05] <JanC> donofrio__: if you were confused about the word "archive", it just means a place where files are stored here
[17:06] <pragmaticenigma> or more simply... someone needed a name/label... that's what they choose.
[17:06] <JanC> the "archive" for *old* (no-longer-supported) Ubuntu releases is at https://old-releases.ubuntu.com/
[17:08] <JanC> well, the reason why it's called "archive" is almost certainly because someone chose that name in Debian a long time ago  :)
[17:10] <pragmaticenigma> no idea... I tend not to read too much into these things. I assume if the default configuaration from the maker of the software did that, they had a reason and all that matters to me is the software works
[17:10] <JanC> I don't think it's a software default, just that it has traditionally been called that
[17:10] <JanC> so more like a cultural thing
[17:11] <pragmaticenigma> default as in, as provided by the publisher
[17:12] <JanC> I'm not sure what you mean by "publisher" here; it's just a DNS subdomain choice, and most mirrors use different subdomains probably
[17:13] <pragmaticenigma> that absolutely nothing at all with what I was getting at
[17:14] <pragmaticenigma> The publisher, Canonical, choose a domain name, put that domain into a configuration file as the default location to look for things
[17:19] <younder> Did they?
[17:19] <younder> Simplifying a install... How evil!
[17:55] <echelon> hi, has anyone seen this error before? https://i.imgur.com/oxKk8i0.png
[17:55] <echelon> i'm able to curl the InRelease file just fine
[17:56] <falz> is your clock off?
[17:57] <echelon> oh!
[17:59] <echelon> falz: yup, was set to 2023, thanks!
[17:59] <falz> https://readinginbeddotcom.files.wordpress.com/2019/09/intheyear2000.gif
[19:30] <echelon> can /boot partition be added to LVM now?
[19:33] <tomreyn> echelon: i'm not sure whether the installers can, but other than that i don't see why not (and that's not a recent change).
[19:55] <echelon> yeah, my question was about the installer
[19:55] <bunjee> please help newbie here setup HP printer...
[20:00] <tomreyn> bunjee: which printer model exactly? what have you tried, yet (if anything)?
[20:03] <bunjee> tomreyn: HP 2700 deskjet all in one.....I've gone as far as installing HPLIP....just can't get it to connect wirelessly.
[20:17] <bunjee> Anyone help - HP 2700 deskjet all in one.....I've gone as far as installing HPLIP....just can't get it to connect wirelessly.
[20:19] <kawal> reset the printer
[20:19] <kawal> and connect to the printers' wifi again.
[20:19] <kawal> without password.
[20:19] <kawal> direct wifi connect.
[20:19] <kawal> bunjee !
[20:19] <kawal> @
[20:23] <kawal> the graphic way as root: system-config-printer, then add with the printer IP, the model is listed , though with direct wifi connect you can't connec to the internet but it works anyway.
[20:27] <JanC> HP printers are super expensive & user-hostile these days
[20:45] <bunjee> still need help installing HP printer....

[20:55] <tomreyn> bunjee: you will also need to install package 'hplip' if it's not already installed.
[20:58] <bunjee> tomreyn: I'm just reading now....
[21:02] <bunjee> tomreyn: I have had the HP connected wirelessly for a couple years now.....I need to connect using Kubuntu 23.04
[21:02] <bunjee> 24.04
[21:05] <bunjee> tomreyn: hplip is already the newest version (3.23.12+dfsg0-0ubuntu5).

[22:41] <webchat68> hello guys
[22:43] <webchat56> hello guys
[22:53] <jason> Query:  Real talkative bunch.
[22:53] <jason> 1/1 ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 1s 789ms/step
[22:53] <jason>  [{'intent': 'greetings', 'probability': '0.34231463'}, {'intent': 'invalid', 'probability': '0.30237132'}, {'intent': 'funny', 'probability': '0.2974037'}]
[22:53] <jason> JENNY:  Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend.
[22:53] <jason> it's called Internet Relay Chat for a reason
[23:14] <Guest52> I just finished renaming a few folders and moving a few files in my home directory. Now for some reason, when I open my web browser all my bookmarks, search history and other data is missing. Likewsie when I launch Joplin, all my notes are gone. How should I go about remedying this?
[23:14] <sarnold> put them back? :)
[23:14] <jason> lol
[23:15] <Guest52> Is there a way to list recent file modification history via teminal?
[23:15] <jason> "This is Unix. It gives you enough rope to hang yourself." --- Miquel van Smoorenburg <miquels at http://cistron.nl>
[23:15] <jason> logs
[23:16] <sarnold> Guest52: not really. renaming a directory or file will change the *parent* directory modification time, not the file's .. moving it somewhere else might show up
[23:16] <jason> easier way? uninstall the browser and reinstall first thing it willask is toimport
[23:17] <sarnold> but if the terminal no longer exists and you can't just scroll up, it's pretty hard to find out what you did
[23:25] <Guest52> Think I figured out how to list recently modified files:
[23:25] <Guest52> find . -maxdepth 1 -newermt "04-18-2024"
[23:25] <Guest52> It outputs this list of folders: https://termbin.com/hcrn
[23:40] <jason> for future such case you may want to look at Back in Yime
[23:41] <jason> Back in Time
[23:44] <jason> there'salso awidget that does automaticebackups
[23:51] <jason> export the favorites file when you get it running and keep it in your backups
[23:54] <Guest52> Thanks for the advice. Now I notice that somehow there ended up being a ./snap and a ./Snap dir. Can I safely move the files from the latter to the former and then delete the former?
