| Guest79 | Hello does ubuntu desktop have a setting for a socks internet connection? | 12:19 |
| Guest79 | Sorry firefox apparently reset does anyone know if ubuntu desktop has a socks option for internet? | 12:22 |
| === Cobweb7251 is now known as Cobweb7250 | ||
| ogra_ | Guest79, there is a socks option in the settings after you enabled a proxy ... | 12:36 |
| Guest96 | ogra: like a per app thing? | 12:46 |
| Guest96 | i guess that is ok was wondering if the gui had a way other than the export and apps need to support it option | 12:46 |
| Guest96 | kind of expected it to be in the gui by the wifi stuff | 12:47 |
| lotuspsychje | Guest96: you asked if firefox had an option, what you probably seek is a proxy tunnel app that can anonymize your connection per app? | 12:48 |
| Guest96 | ogra (sorry i swapped to desktop webchat btw) | 12:48 |
| ogra_ | Guest96, i was refrerring to the global setting, it is in the desktop settings | 12:49 |
| ogra_ | there is surely also on in the firsfox settings somewhere | 12:50 |

| bunjee | newbie here....how can I upgrade my old OS internally? | 13:18 |
| bunjee | I have Ubuntu 20.0406 LTS focal now. | 13:19 |
| ogra_ | bunjee, the update manager should offer you an upgrade to 22.04 | 13:20 |
| ogra_ | just open it ... | 13:20 |
| bunjee | oqra - how do I get to it? | 13:21 |
| bot26 | how do i learn the ubhuntooz? | 13:21 |
| ogra_ | bunjee, hit the "windows+a" key combo ... type "update" and it should show you the update manager app ... click on it | 13:22 |
| nnt | i have ubuntu 22.04 jammy i want to upgrade it to 24 | 13:22 |
| ogra_ | it should perform a normal package update and once it is done it should offer you the upgrade to 22.04 | 13:23 |
| ogra_ | nnt, there are still massive bugs with that which is why it has not been enabled yet ... if you want to do it anyway you can run "sudo update-manager -d" | 13:23 |
| ogra_ | (but mind you some of these bugs are fatal) | 13:23 |
| bot26 | i'm angry with ubuntu: 3+1.8 gigabytes a' kontent und there were no aynteresting additions to the aynstalled ghrograms conghared to the 3.8 gigabyte release | 13:25 |
| bunjee | oqra - thank you....it's updating now. | 13:27 |

| logicWEB | hello :-) I have a laptop with a trackpad, and it is, frustratingly, not disabling the trackpad while I am typing. so, often, my palm or the base of my thumb brushes it and the cursor jumps somewhere else mid-sentence (or mid-command). I did some searches, and read that it's not supposed to be like this. a stock installation _should_ disable the | 13:44 |
| logicWEB | trackpad while typing. what do I do to figure out why it isn't doing that? I'm using Xorg on 22.04, because Wayland doesn't provide any way to place windows as they open. | 13:44 |
| logicWEB | I installed GNOME Tweaks, and it says that "Disable While Typing" for the Touchpad is enabled, but that's not what's happening for me :-/ | 13:53 |

| === Juesto is now known as Juest | ||
| sem | I'm having a weird problem. I'm trying to get into UEFI settings, but my keyboard / mouse don't work until I get past GRUB. I've tried a USB wireless keyboard/mouse and a wired one with pins. They used to work so I must have done something | 15:45 |
| ravage | UEFI are available via your BIOS or a defined F-key that should how up during the boot process | 15:48 |
| ravage | that is before Ubuntu has anything to do with your system | 15:49 |
| sem | Yeah maybe this is the wrong channel | 15:49 |
| sem | but I can't use the keyboard at GRUB either | 15:49 |
| sem | if I could select menu entries, I could get into UEFI that way | 15:50 |
| ravage | if your system shows strange behavior maybe reset your BIOS to defaults | 15:50 |
| sem | I'm not sure how to do that; I will investigate | 15:50 |
| ravage | the manual of your board has information about that | 15:51 |
| sem | One thing -- I had been using UEFI to disable the windows SATA drive when I booted into Ubuntu. I believe this was necessary when installing Ubuntu so the installer would not accidentally overwrite the EFI bootloader on the windows disk (I do not entirely understand) | 15:52 |
| sem | But since I've already installed, it should be ok to have the windows drive not disabled right? | 15:53 |

| xypron | sem: You can run with either of one ESP per OS or a single ESP. If you have the recovery key, you can even mount your Bitlocker encrypted Windows drive in Ubuntu. | 16:05 |
| sem | Ok cool so it shouldn't be risky to reset the bios if I figure out how | 16:07 |
| JanC | it might be something like "legacy USB support" in UEFI | 16:09 |
| sem | is resetting CMOS the same as resetting bios? | 16:18 |
| JanC | sem: first try to see if you can get into the UEFI firmware setup otherwise | 16:19 |
| sem | the manual says that 'fast boot' disables the ability to press del to enter settings, so maybe 'fast boot' is disabling the keyboard at GRUB as well | 16:19 |
| sem | is there a way to restart into UEFI from ubuntu, similar to the way that you can in windows? | 16:20 |
| JanC | I think "systemctl reboot --firmware-setup" should reboot your PC and go into the setup instead of boot normally | 16:20 |
| sem | thanks! I'll try it | 16:20 |
| sem | Yes that works! | 16:21 |
| JanC | :) | 16:21 |
| JanC | does the keyboard work there? | 16:21 |
| JanC | maybe it's some "fast boot" setting causing the problems also | 16:23 |
| JanC | that often skips configuring or setting up hardware, assuming the OS will do it | 16:24 |

| masber | hi, I have ubuntu 23.10 and location services enabled and I have connection to internet, however my time is not getting updated when I travel, I live in central Europe and I am now in New Zeland and the time in task bar is still showing the wrong time, any hint? | 19:03 |
| aldcor | hey, hackers! I am not sure what combination of buttons causing this or it happens on its own but as you can see it looks like selected area and it won't go away unless I reboot http://0x0.st/XKt0.png | 19:06 |
| bprompt | masber: you can try this -> sudo timedatectl set-ntp true | 19:06 |
| aldcor | it looks like half of the screen is selected | 19:06 |
| bprompt | masber: set-ntp is a way to tell the system clock to "do a network synchronization", as opposed to manually being set | 19:07 |
| bprompt | masber: you can do a quick -> timedatectl <--- just to check its status | 19:07 |
| younder | The real question is why it didn't use NTP by default.. | 19:08 |
| masber | how long is it supposed to update the time since I ran that command? | 19:08 |
| younder | Normally it just works out of the box. | 19:08 |
| masber | timezone is still showing Zurich | 19:09 |
| masber | and NTP service is active | 19:09 |
| aldcor | ok, i somehow solved this problem by opening settings and closing them.. i guess new window somehow triggered that selection freeze to dissappear | 19:09 |
| younder | Is your firewall blocking outgoing traffic? | 19:09 |
| masber | https://dpaste.org/08ZD0 | 19:09 |
| bprompt | masber: as soon as you're online, well, you are right now :), not sure exactly on the timing | 19:10 |
| masber | `sudo ufw status` says it is inactive | 19:10 |
| CosmicDJ | masber: why don't you just set a NZ timezone? | 19:14 |
| masber | i travel | 19:14 |
| masber | I don't want to manually change the time on computer everytime I am in a different timezone | 19:15 |
| CosmicDJ | well set it to UTC then ;) | 19:15 |
| masber | yeah | 19:15 |
| masber | but I need to corrdinate with coworkers in Zurich | 19:15 |
| CosmicDJ | then leave it on Swiss time? | 19:16 |
| masber | and I want to make use of the dark theme | 19:16 |
| bprompt | or run two clocks =) | 19:16 |
| bprompt | hehehe | 19:16 |
| masber | I want the dark theme to kick in automatically so my eyes don't bleed at 23.00 | 19:16 |
| masber | and this is something ubuntu supports by default | 19:17 |
| masber | I just don't know why it is not working in my laptop :( | 19:17 |

| younder | masber: try chronyd -q - it's a one shot | 19:17 |
| bprompt | masber: I'm assuming the issue is, your timezone is static, so your clock is reflecting that | 19:18 |
| pragmaticenigma | masber: are you running a VPN? | 19:19 |
| masber | pragmaticenigma good point, I am not connected to VPN | 19:19 |
| masber | bprompt my timezone setting is set to automatic | 19:20 |

| aldcor | NVIDIA GeForce RTX™ 3080, Ubuntu 24.04 LTS | 20:25 |
| bprompt | aldcor: hmmmm, if it's just in mplayer, then it's a codec issue, dunno, reinstall ffmpeg maybe or some of its libraries | 20:26 |
| oerheks | such new card, but it could be ' nvidia-drm modeset=1' trick | 20:27 |
| oerheks | like this https://www.reddit.com/r/Ubuntu/comments/hrsic9/comment/fy64vwx/ or older https://askubuntu.com/questions/1170247/how-do-i-solve-screen-tearing-on-ubuntu-18-04-with-nvidia | 20:29 |
| aldcor | it seems like reinstalling ffmpeg fixed an issue | 20:30 |
| bprompt | aldcor: if it's only in mpv, yeap, I mean, you can always use VLC and you won't see it, either that or simply check for any updates to ffmpeg libraries if any | 20:32 |
| aldcor | mpv = life on my all previously used distros :) | 20:33 |
| oerheks | mpv should be fine indeed, so it is not a card issue | 20:34 |
| bprompt | aldcor: nothing wrong with that, however keep in mind that "mpv" is simply a frontend for mplayer2 | 20:34 |
| bprompt | aldcor: mind you I use "smplayer", which is also a frontend, however it has a few settings, like I blow up the volume at 10x =) | 20:35 |
| bprompt | aldcor: that said, VLC is pretty good, lame skin, however is skinnable, and you can change it to look neat | 20:36 |
| bprompt | aldcor: mind you that VLC has its own codecs | 20:36 |
| aldcor | ok ok I understand, thanks :) reinstalling ffmpeg fixed screen tearing as I already said ;) | 20:37 |
| bprompt | aldcor: IMO smplayer looks better than mpv =P, and smplayer has a few themes too | 20:38 |
| bprompt | hehehe | 20:38 |
| aldcor | i think I never tried it, lets see | 20:38 |
| bprompt | aldcor: smplayer also has a youtube finder and player plugin | 20:38 |
| aldcor | does it? i don't see | 20:40 |
| aldcor | oh, f11? | 20:40 |
| aldcor | ok, it's plugin i guess | 20:40 |
| aldcor | oh no no.. it's subpar | 20:42 |
| nikolam | Again some problems on update of 22.04 (xubuntu) E: linux-image-5.15.0-107-generic: installed linux-image-5.15.0-107-generic package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1 | 21:16 |
| aldcor | btw, bprompt I still got screen tearing. It seems like my problem exibits itself inconsistently | 21:17 |
| nikolam | It wants to reboot.. | 21:17 |
| aldcor | when you first suggested ffmpeg I thought.. what that has to do with video output | 21:17 |
| aldcor | ok but could you explain? | 21:17 |
| === guiverc2 is now known as guiverc | ||
| bprompt | aldcor: mplayer2 is the "engine" doing the playback, it relies on ffmpeg, and ffmpeg relies on its codecs, namely video compressors and decompressors, codecs for short, codecs are the instructions that make the video playback | 21:19 |
| bprompt | ad1m: mplayer2 provides the backend for many apps, mpv being just one of them, if a video is not playing or playing only its audio or no audio or else, is the backend engine, and the issue is most likely its codecs | 21:20 |
| bprompt | well, aldcor for that matter =) | 21:21 |
| aldcor | the ffmpeg libraries are in charge of decoding in mpv, not in charge of rendering, no? | 21:21 |
| bprompt | aldcor: well, yes and no, "decoding" is in essence rendering per se | 21:22 |
| bprompt | aldcor: mpv is just the cute window provided for mplayer2, which runs on ffmpeg | 21:23 |
| aldcor | ok | 21:23 |
| aldcor | new issue however | 21:23 |
| aldcor | I am playing some games sometimes and all goes well, however, when I try to record screen with simplescreenrecording i got screen tearing in a game and therefor in a video too | 21:24 |
| aldcor | (previously described screen tearing was related to youtube videos via mpv) | 21:24 |
| bprompt | aldcor: is possible, I don't know what simplescreenrecording ( damn! that's a long name ) is using, as I said, ffmpeg is an engine many apps use, I'd not be surprised if that app is using ffmpeg, which boils down to its codecs | 21:26 |
| bprompt | aldcor: mplayer2 uses ffmpeg, but many apps use ffmpeg, since at its core utility is encoding and decoding videos and audio | 21:27 |
| aldcor | huh.. that is confusing to me. I would think it's nvidia related | 21:27 |
| bprompt | aldcor: well, something videocard related, wouldn't manifest only in videos or playback, it'd be all over the place, menus, desktop, any app | 21:28 |
| aldcor | ok, lets say it's codecs related issue. What would be a solution? | 21:28 |
| aldcor | oh, that's true. The rest of pc is smooth and btw I have no screen tearing in youtube videos via firefox | 21:29 |
| nikolam | Same on 22.04 with 106 as it was with 106. I am still on 105 kernel , because on restart system can't boot and reboots itselfs and boots 105 kernel | 21:29 |
| nikolam | It is MBR install as I remember, even it boots form M.2 Nvme SSD | 21:29 |
| nikolam | https://pastebin.com/hxVg5KFk | 21:30 |
| bprompt | aldcor: yeap, I was going to say that in the webbrowser, youtube would play fine, because browsers have their own codecs, independent from ffmpeg's, same goes to VLC, VLC codecs are independent as well | 21:30 |
| aldcor | so, reboot i guess | 21:31 |
| bprompt | aldcor: no just firefox btw, all browsers install their own codecs, however is only for limited video standard types | 21:31 |
| bprompt | aldcor: you could try that | 21:31 |
| nikolam | I have installed Radeon drivers. | 21:34 |
| bprompt | nikolam: I'd like to point out there's a #xubuntu channel :), but doesn't seem to me the issue is the AMD drivers | 21:42 |
| tomreyn | nikolam has two main issues there: "cryptsetup: ERROR: Couldn't resolve device UUID=be4ebbf4-5c1c-4952-bcb9-9f09e30a4434" and "/usr/sbin/grub-mkconfig: 14: /etc/default/grub: kvm.ignore_msrs=1: not found" | 21:44 |
| tomreyn | i don't think this "on restart system can't boot and reboots itselfs and boots 105 kernel" is something that would ever happen by itself. | 21:46 |
| tomreyn | (at least i couldn't explain how) | 21:46 |
| nikolam | tomreyn, also happened while updating to 106. I stayed with 105 after removin all apps, packages and PPA repos and re-adding all apps again and Radeon drivers, took me half a day to get all things back | 21:55 |
| nikolam | It is booting from MBR drive, I think it is Ubuntu issue, because xubuntu and ubuntu just differ on some DE and login packages etc | 21:56 |
| nikolam | I don't have that device in /etc/fstab . Also I have root on BTRFS and I have my /home/user on ZFS mirror | 21:57 |
| nikolam | tomreyn, I haven't had such problems with LTS 22.04 for years until few days ago. | 21:57 |
| nikolam | I did migrate install from one PC to another, keeping MBR on SSD, maybe that is the issue | 21:58 |
| nikolam | Other then that and that error mesages on update of LTS, I don't know. | 21:58 |
| nikolam | Now I am offere Partial upgrade with Software updater | 21:59 |
| oerheks | kernel update 6.5.0.35 | 23:06 |
| gordonjcp | is libmutter fixed yet? | 23:19 |
| gordonjcp | I'd quite like to be able to use Ubuntu again at some point | 23:20 |
| tomreyn | it's not like it's generally broken. are you inquiring about a certain version, a certain ubuntu release, a specific bug report? | 23:24 |
| oerheks | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mutter/+bugs?orderby=-datecreated&start=0 | 23:29 |
| logicWEB | I found the solution. on my device, by default, the keyboard is not recognized as internal, and the disable-while-typing function for the trackpad only does anything for internal keyboards. I was able to resolve this with a libinput quirks file. :-) | 23:57 |
