| adac | Guys I"m on jammy and suddenly my slack stopped working and it seems to be this issue: . https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/issue-starting-slack-snap-cannot-update-snap-namespace/39916 Also my chromium got problems, this I could temporarly resolve with this approach: https://bugs.launchpad.net/snapd/+bug/2061876 | 07:22 |
| -ubottu:#ubuntu- Launchpad bug 2061876 in Ubuntu "snap-update-ns failed with code 1 when user home has a trailing /" [Undecided, Confirmed] | 07:22 | |

| nteodosio | adac, what is 'snap info snapd | grep refresh-date'? | 07:47 |
| adac | @nteodosio https://codepad.site/edit/aj9gru40 | 08:35 |
| adac | grep didn"t work was empty | 08:35 |
| nteodosio | Output seems to be cropped, try 'snap info snapd | nc termbin.com 9999'. | 08:38 |
| nteodosio | adac, the idea is to check whether Snapd was recently updated, and if that matches your percpetion of "suddenly", open a bug against Snapd. | 08:39 |
| adac | nteodosio, https://termbin.com/hw9e | 08:42 |
| nteodosio | adac, hmm that is so weird, it looks like you don't even have snapd installed. I guess it is not listed in 'snap list', right? What if you do 'snap install snapd'? | 08:44 |
| adac | nteodosio, it seems that snapd is installed via apt imo | 08:54 |
| adac | ii snapd 2.62+22.04 amd64 Daemon and tooling that enable snap packages | 08:54 |
| nteodosio | adac, I'd have thought Snapd were a snap and the snapd deb was only a for setting it up, but I can see it's a "real" package... So idk. | 09:11 |
| adac | could be yes. But how strange is that that snapd is not even installed | 09:12 |
| adac | i mean now it sems to be installed after executing you command | 09:12 |
| adac | slack is again working | 09:13 |
| nteodosio | ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ | 09:13 |
| adac | magic! | 09:28 |
| ogra_ | the snapd deb needs to give you a fully working snap system so "snap install " works | 09:28 |
| ogra_ | but it indeed has some limitations | 09:28 |
| adac | anyway. Thanks for the help nteodosio! | 09:28 |
| nteodosio | You're welcome! | 09:33 |
| dontyouloveshor- | hi | 09:44 |
| dontyouloveshor- | how do i install firefox from a ppa and not from the original ubuntu sources? | 09:44 |
| dontyouloveshor- | i added the ppa, but obviously apt get install looks for the ubuntu lunar sources first | 09:45 |
| tarzeau | dontyouloveshor-: i have these notes: https://github.com/alexmyczko/autoexec.bat/blob/master/config.sys/ubuntu-remove-snap-firefox | 09:53 |
| tarzeau | dontyouloveshor-: don't use ppa anymore, they have their own repository now | 09:54 |
| khazakar | If you want to replace firefox snap, then I can recommend offical mozilla repository at least | 09:55 |
| khazakar | https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/install-firefox-linux#w_install-firefox-deb-package-for-debian-based-distributions | 09:56 |
| dontyouloveshor- | thx will try ina few miutes | 09:57 |
| ogra_ | dontyouloveshor-, note that we do not support the deb versions here, you'll need to ask mozilla if you run into any probs with their package | 10:09 |
| dontyouloveshor- | thats fine | 10:10 |
| ogra_ | right, just pointing it out ... (the snap gets a ton of testing by our desktop team against all possible targets and release, the debs do not get any of that) | 10:11 |
| ogra_ | *releases | 10:11 |

| xvx | Is there a setting to expose an app's windows from all workspaces? When clicking an app icon in the dock, it shows the windows only open from one workspace (so to find a particular window, got to manually go through each workspace - even workspaces where the app isn't even in!) | 11:01 |
| lotuspsychje | xvx: see dconf-editor for all sorts of tweaks on your system | 11:04 |
| neoli | I need help about dpkg-reconfigure, do I need to append something to reconfigure all packages? | 11:05 |
| lotuspsychje | xvx: i think there's a setting for click behaviour on dock items | 11:05 |
| xvx | lotuspsychje: the Ubuntu Dock settings shows an options for "click action", which is set to "focus or app spread", but I don't see a way to adjust what "app spread" shows | 11:07 |
| lotuspsychje | yeah dont think you can adjust those click actions | 11:07 |
| lotuspsychje | xvx: whats your endgoal exactly? what do you want be able to do? | 11:08 |
| xvx | Ideally like for Mac, where it exposes all windows of an app when I click on the icon (regardless of what workspace they're in). If not possible, at least don't show blank workspaces that the app isn't open while I swipe through workspaces | 11:11 |
| lotuspsychje | xvx: there's a handy workspace indicator if you like, you can click your workspaces easy, and see your apps on it | 11:12 |
| lotuspsychje | xvx: something like in the right upper corner; https://i.sstatic.net/HoDg0.jpg | 11:13 |
| xvx | I have that already lol, doesn't indicate which app the windows are though. And besides, this is better UX https://techwiser.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/Macbook-App-Switcher-toggle-window.jpg | 11:18 |
| lotuspsychje | isnt that just what the activities button does? | 11:19 |
| ogra_ | neoli, i think you nowadays want "dpkg --configure -a" instead of dpkg-reconfigure (which dropped its --all option in 2016) | 11:20 |
| ogra_ | else you'd have to script a loop to iterate over all packages, then you can use dpkg-reconfigure ... | 11:20 |
| xvx | lotuspsychje: That's shows all windows in the current workspace. I want to view windows for one app from all workspaces | 11:21 |
| xvx | (without having to manually swipe through each workspace) | 11:22 |
| lotuspsychje | xvx: activities show all apps from all workspaces | 11:22 |
| lotuspsychje | xvx: you got several windows of the same app you spread around different workspaces? | 11:23 |
| xvx | not for me (I'm on Ubuntu 24.04 in case that's different) | 11:23 |
| xvx | yes | 11:23 |
| ogra_ | there is most likely a gnome extension for this ... | 11:24 |
| lotuspsychje | xvx: check gnome settings/multitasking to enable activites left upper corner | 11:24 |
| lotuspsychje | there are tons of gnome extensions on the ubuntu repos too | 11:25 |
| xvx | my activities button in Ubuntu 24.04 is a series of dots (indicating each workspace) | 11:28 |
| ogra_ | the activities button is in the top left of the screen (in the small top panel) | 11:29 |
| ogra_ | not the one bottom left ... | 11:29 |
| lotuspsychje | xvx you can change its behaviour in gnome settings | 11:30 |
| xvx | have you seen Ubuntu 24.04 ogra_? | 11:31 |
| ogra_ | nope ... but i wouldnt expect such an essential gnome feature to vanish | 11:31 |
| xvx | I think just the graphic of it changed, not vanished | 11:32 |
| xvx | but its functionality is ok, it's just the "app spread" when searching for an app's window I wanted to adjust | 11:33 |
| ogra_ | aha ... so it is the old activities button by default *until* you add more than one workspace, then it turns into a row of dots ... | 11:39 |
| ogra_ | how "intuitive" 😛 | 11:39 |

| neoli | parole media player wont play any sound (vlc does). what package do I need? | 12:25 |
| genericum | where do I find partition information in a *.vmdk file ? | 12:46 |
| neoli | is it true that apt is being deprecated in favor of snap? | 13:19 |
| leftyfb | neoli: no | 13:20 |
| neoli | so the best approach to install something is simply to select the highr version number one, right? | 13:21 |
| leftyfb | anything from the ubuntu repo's, yes. Though what are you using to determine version numbers? | 13:22 |
| neoli | cli and the application's name | 13:22 |
| leftyfb | which cli? | 13:23 |
| neoli | terminal? I dont know how its called | 13:26 |
| leftyfb | neoli: what command are you running? | 13:26 |
| neoli | openttd | 13:29 |
| leftyfb | neoli: what command are you running to detemrine version numbers of packages? | 13:29 |
| neoli | openttd, I opened a terminal and wrote that, I got a snap candidate and an apt candidate | 13:30 |
| leftyfb | neoli: you opened a terminal and wrote "openttd" and it showed you a snap candidate and an apt candidate? | 13:31 |
| leftyfb | neoli: openttd is a "reimplementation of the Microprose game Transport Tycoon Deluxe". It will not tell you anything about package versions of snap nor apt | 13:32 |
| neoli | not on my end | 13:38 |
| leftyfb | no kidding | 13:38 |
| ogra_ | leftyfb, command-not-found will offer you snaps and debs | 13:46 |
| leftyfb | ogra_: I was trying to determine what they were using to find packages and versions. If they used apt or snap, neither will tell you(clearly) package versions of the other | 13:47 |
| ogra_ | leftyfb, right. they obviously used command-not-found in this case 😉 | 13:48 |
| ogra_ | (try it) | 13:48 |
| leftyfb | ogra_: command_not_found only finds installed binaries. Nothing to do with package names or versions | 13:48 |
| leftyfb | I prefer type -a | 13:48 |
| ogra_ | type in "openttd" and hit enter | 13:49 |
| leftyfb | oh, interesting | 13:49 |
| ogra_ | it gives you the versions of the available packages | 13:49 |
| ogra_ | and the install command needed | 13:49 |
| leftyfb | I would NOT recommend that being the way people determine packages and version numbers | 13:49 |
| leftyfb | it assumes a lot | 13:50 |
| leftyfb | useful if you get the binary name right, it matches what's in c-n-f's database and the package isn't installed | 13:50 |
| ogra_ | well, it just scrpes databases | 13:50 |
| ogra_ | *scrapes | 13:50 |
| leftyfb | right | 13:50 |
| ogra_ | the snap doesnt seem well maintained though ... while there seem to be auto-builds of newer versions (13.x), the last release to the stable channel was 2y ago | 13:52 |
| ogra_ | (yet it is still a minor revision newer than the deb) | 13:52 |

| chonkin | I'm in support with a perosn outside IRC. What we have discovered so far is this machine is not technically "frozen". The cursor is blinking meaning it waiting for something to happen. | 21:17 |
| LuckyMan | chonkin, check out your nvidia drivers | 21:22 |
| LuckyMan | press CTRL+ALT+F1 or F2, login and check the drivers | 21:23 |
| chonkin | Okay so if I try CTRL+ALT+F4 or such the cursor will freeze. | 21:23 |
| chonkin | (at this exact moment, we are letting the process sit for like 40 minutes. because the boot seems to be doing something prior to a power button press and we wnt ot log that) | 21:24 |
