[02:28] <oerheks> yes
[02:28] <oerheks> dunno
[02:29] <arraybolt3> oerheks: maybe?
[02:31] <oerheks> today
[06:26] <zee> hey :'

[09:42] <lessshaste> how can I type e acute ? I am just copying and pasting whenever I need it currently
[10:33] <geirha> depends on the keybaord layout. In my layout, the acute is a dead key, so I type  acute followed by e   é
[10:34] <lotuspsychje> there's also a nice input-remapper package to remap keys easy
[10:45] <Moeez> mysql -u root -e "GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON bugs.* TO bugs@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'Test1234'"
[10:45] <Moeez> ERROR 1698 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost'
[10:45] <Moeez> this is the issue i am getting
[10:47] <gordonjcp> Moeez: this doesn't sound like a specifically Ubuntu problem, and a bit more context would be helpful
[10:49] <geirha> -p to specify the root password
[10:51] <Moeez> wait
[10:59] <younder> The user in postgressql is postgres not root
[11:09] <geirha> I doubt they would be using the mysql command if they were trying to connect to a postgresql database though
[12:06] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[12:19] <Guest79> Hello does ubuntu desktop have a setting for a socks internet connection?
[12:22] <Guest79> Sorry firefox apparently reset does anyone know if ubuntu desktop has a socks option for internet?
[12:36] <ogra_> Guest79, there is a socks option in the settings after you enabled a proxy ...
[12:46] <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
[12:47] <Guest96> kind of expected it to be in the gui by the wifi stuff
[12:48] <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)
[12:49] <ogra_> Guest96, i was refrerring to the global setting, it is in the desktop settings
[12:50] <ogra_> there is surely also on in the firsfox settings somewhere
[12:50] <ogra_> s/on/one/
[13:01] <Guest79> Thanks ogra I see it now got some bad weather approaching
[13:18] <bunjee> newbie here....how can I upgrade my old OS internally?
[13:19] <bunjee> I have Ubuntu 20.0406 LTS focal now.
[13:20] <ogra_> bunjee, the update manager should offer you an upgrade to 22.04
[13:20] <ogra_> just open it ...
[13:21] <bunjee> oqra - how do I get to it?
[13:21] <bot26> how do i learn the ubhuntooz?
[13:22] <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
[13:23] <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)
[13:25] <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
[13:27] <bunjee> oqra - thank you....it's updating now.
[13:44] <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.
[13:53] <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 :-/
[14:02] <xvx> How do I set a custom shortcut for AltGr + space to be F12? (I'm in the "add custom shortcut screen" in settings)
[14:27] <bunjee> can someone let me know what this means and how to correct it? E:The repository 'http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu eoan-security Release' does not have a Release file., W:Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default., W:See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details., E:The repository 'http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu eoan-updates Release' does not
[14:27] <bunjee> have a Release file.
[14:42] <ravage> Your version of Ubuntu is not supported anymore 
[14:42] <ravage> https://fridge.ubuntu.com/2020/07/17/ubuntu-19-10-eoan-ermine-end-of-life-reached-on-july-17-2020/
[14:43] <Ximo> bunjee: should probably get off 19.10 but you can always switch to old-releases.ubuntu.com which is where the repo has been moved to
[14:43] <Ximo> because it's not getting updates/etc.  just not a good idea unless you *need* to and/or know exactly what you're doing.
[14:53] <mrec> does anyone know a keyboard/mouse logger like xev? I'm having an issue with my notebook when I write something the cursor jumps (eg. within libreoffice)
[14:54] <mrec> I'd like to identify what problem it is exactly (I know I can disable the mouse while typing but that's just the sledgehammer approach)
[15:08] <Cryptiic> Hello
[15:45] <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
[15:48] <ravage> UEFI are available via your BIOS or a defined F-key that should how up during the boot process
[15:49] <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
[15:50] <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
[15:51] <ravage> the manual of your board has information about that
[15:52] <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)
[15:53] <sem> But since I've already installed, it should be ok to have the windows drive not disabled right?
[16:05] <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.
[16:07] <sem> Ok cool so it shouldn't be risky to reset the bios if I figure out how
[16:09] <JanC> it might be something like "legacy USB support" in UEFI
[16:18] <sem> is resetting CMOS the same as resetting bios?
[16:19] <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
[16:20] <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
[16:21] <sem> Yes that works!
[16:21] <JanC> :)
[16:21] <JanC> does the keyboard work there?
[16:23] <JanC> maybe it's some "fast boot" setting causing the problems also
[16:24] <JanC> that often skips configuring or setting up hardware, assuming the OS will do it
[16:35] <sem> Yes the keyboard works there; it must have been fast boot
[17:27] <ubuntu-cinnamon> hi
[19:03] <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?
[19:06] <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
[19:07] <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
[19:08] <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.
[19:09] <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
[19:10] <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
[19:14] <CosmicDJ> masber: why don't you just set a NZ timezone?
[19:14] <masber> i travel
[19:15] <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
[19:16] <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
[19:17] <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] <CosmicDJ> https://help.ubuntu.com/stable/ubuntu-help/clock-timezone.html.en "If you have the Automatic Time Zone switch set to on, your time zone should update automatically if you have an internet connection and the location services feature is enabled."
[19:17] <younder> masber: try chronyd -q - it's a one shot
[19:18] <bprompt> masber: I'm assuming the issue is, your timezone is static, so your clock is reflecting that
[19:19] <pragmaticenigma> masber: are you running a VPN?
[19:19] <masber> pragmaticenigma good point, I am not connected to VPN
[19:20] <masber> bprompt my timezone setting is set to automatic
[19:21] <bprompt> masber: hmmm you just said timedatectl shows a Zurich timezone, no?
[19:21] <masber> correct
[19:22] <masber> bprompt https://pasteboard.co/CfjcNu4lyiga.png
[19:22] <CosmicDJ> masber: location service is on?
[19:23] <masber> CosmicDJ yeah, location service is on
[19:24] <younder> masber: ok found it - 'gsettings set org.gnome.system.location enabled true' and then  'gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.datetime automatic-timezone true'
[19:24] <younder> Must be run as user not root
[19:26] <bprompt> I'd think the GUI would have set that already, I guess it didn't :|
[19:31] <masber> ok, just ran those commands
[19:31] <cybersoul> I installed scilab on ubuntu 23.10 using apt but xcos opens without a pallete browser. I don't know if this bug exists in 24.04. as of now I may or may not test it in 24.04 in a vm
[19:32] <oerheks> no bugs reported lately https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/scilab/+bugs?orderby=-datecreated&start=0
[19:32] <masber> how can I check NTP is running and in sync?
[19:35] <oerheks> !ntp
[19:35] <oerheks> so easy to find..
