gaelhearti recently switched from kde plasma to gnome.  i want to set a wallpaper on GDM but i don't know how to do it.03:08
rboxare you using fedora or ubuntu03:08
rboxrofl03:08
rboxor are you just spamming every channel03:08
gaelheartfedora03:08
gaelheartand ubuntu actually03:09
rboxlol03:09
gaelheart2 machines03:09
gaelhearti have ubuntu 24.04 and fedora 40 workstation03:09
gaelhearti'm assuming it's the same for either one?03:09
sarnoldgnome folks like to change things up every few months just to keep things fresh03:10
gaelheartthat's true03:11
sarnoldif the packages for both were made from the same upstream gnome versions of the packages within a month or two of each other, yeah, it might be the same. but if there's a bit of skew, who even knows..03:11
gaelhearti was thinking it might just be a gdm config file somewhere03:12
sarnoldI thought the same thing until I found this horrible abomination https://github.com/thiggy01/change-gdm-background/blob/master/change-gdm-background03:12
sarnoldI haven't got a clue what it's doing but it's way more involved than I expected03:12
gaelheartpoint taken03:13
gaelheartnot worth the effort probably03:14
sarnoldyou'd have to *really* want to do it to figure it out, I think :(03:15
gaelheartyeah not worth it03:15
sarnoldi'm headed out for the night, good luck :)03:15
gaelheartthanks for the insights though03:15

brad___hey gents04:07
brad___quick question. casual user. transitioned from the great WinBlow$ to funtu land.04:08
brad___do I need to setup ufw or a firewall configuration to protect my ports from h4ck3r mans?04:08
brad___ELI5 iptables ufw firewalls04:09
brad___I used to use windows defender and shiz.04:09
LuckyManbrad___, default configuration already protects you.04:09
brad___but what if my port is wide open and some1 h4ck3r mans me?04:09
brad___i enabled ufw but i'm not sure how to harden it04:10
LuckyManyou have to define rules04:11
brad___how do i block all inbound connections?04:12
LuckyManthey are already blocked by default unless you open it04:12
LuckyManI suggest you try Gufw, it's easier to manage04:13
devslashUfw is perfectly fine and easy to use04:16
devslashOnce it's installed and enabled all ports are blocked until you allow a port by doing something like ufw allow 8004:17

ReventlovHello14:52
ReventlovDo you know whether the next desktop iso of 24.04 will be released ? (I need a fix for https://bugs.launchpad.net/subiquity/+bug/2062988 )14:52
-ubottu:#ubuntu- Launchpad bug 2062988 in Release Notes for Ubuntu "Desktop netboot crashes on startup due to cloud-init schema validation handling" [Undecided, New]14:52
ReventlovThanks !14:52
oerheksReventlov, no, no details about that, answer #6 gives a workaround for now14:55
ogra_latest on august 1514:58
ogra_(which is the official 24.04.1 date)14:58
Reventlovyeah, it's not perfect (the workaround) as I'm looking to deploy ~ 200 machines15:04
Reventlovso manual interventions are not really ok15:05
leftyfbReventlov: you're deploying to ~200 machines manually?15:06
Reventlovnope, which is why I'm searching for a workaround to this bug15:06
leftyfbcomment #615:07
Reventlovbecause this bug prevents automatic deployment based on netbooting / cloud-init, on the desktop images15:07
leftyfbadd it to your deployment process15:07
Reventlovthe deployment process is broken, as it uses cloud-init15:07
Reventlovand this is cloud-init which is broken there15:07
Reventlovso, yeah, you can tell me to manage this in the deployment process but… this bug kills the deployment process (if you have other options I can take them :p )15:08

BinBashDoes anyone know why ld.so segfaults after a failed upgrade to 24.04?  I can boot off USB, but after a chroot to the old system all binaries fail to run even ld-*.so.215:27
ravagethe "failed upgrade" part may is a hint?15:27
ravage*maybe15:28
BinBashI can't think of why the staticly linked ld.so would fail though15:28
BinBashThis causes the boot to fail too as init failes in ld.so too15:29
ravagerestore from backup and try again15:29
ravageor wait a little longer to see if there is a open bug15:29
ravageif there is no existing bug yet it is helpful to report it15:30
gaelhearthttps://imgur.com/K96NyiH16:17
gaelheartjust installed.  how can i get it to run faster?  somebody said disable animations anything else to make it run lighter?16:17
leftyfbrun it on bare metal16:18
gaelhearti can't unfortunately. i need it for just a few apps actually16:19
Guest39Hi, I'm having issues in docker machines that can't find .deb files on the server during apt install or apt dist-upgrade. Is there anything going on?16:20
=== sudip_ is now known as sudip
ravageGuest39: if the release your docker image uses is still supported an "apt update" should solve that16:22
gaelhearti was thinking to use a lighter file manager, web browser, disable animations, use abiword instead of libreoffice etc but i was thinking there could be other ways to speed it up16:22
ravageYes. Give it more resources or run it on bare metal16:23
ravageIf you want to change everything about the default installation maybe try a lighter Linux variant16:24
ravageUbuntu has lighter flavours too16:24
Guest39ravage I totally agree, but I now tried with the most recent nvcr image, and also with ubuntu:latest, and with both images, I see http errors while retrieving .deb files from the server, which looks like an ongoing issue16:25
ravageAnd what are those errors exactly?16:26
gaelheartravage: what is the lightest?  lxde?16:26
ravageI would say Xubuntu16:27
gaelhearti gave it 6 cores of 8 and 10000 of 1600016:27
Guest39ravage like this: Err:3 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy-updates/main amd64 libexpat1 amd64 2.4.7-1ubuntu0.216:28
Guest39  404  Not Found [IP: 91.189.91.82 80]16:28
Guest39jammy??16:28
Guest39oh16:28
ravageThat is not the whole error message I think16:29
Guest39ravage well the whole error message is quite verbose, but I believe jammy is no longer supported. The odd thing is my dockerfile starts with "FROM ubuntu:latest"16:29
gaelhearthttps://imgur.com/a/298VX6z16:30
ravageJammy is a supported release 16:30
oerheksGuest39, run apt update properly, current version for jammy = expat (2.4.7-1ubuntu0.3) https://packages.ubuntu.com/source/jammy-updates/expat16:30
ravageUse a pastebin then16:30

leftyfbgaelheart: what is the purpose of the Ubuntu VM?16:30
gaelhearti am using it for apps that arent available on fedora16:31
Guest39oerhecks what do you mean by "properly", I run apt -y update and apt -y dist-upgrade :)16:31
gaelheartalso16:31
leftyfbgaelheart: is libreoffice and Firefox not available on Fedora?16:31
gaelheartmy son has an ubuntu laptop and i want to test things out before i commit to making changes for him16:31
oerheksif so, why does it look for amd64 2.4.7-1ubuntu0.2 and not amd64 2.4.7-1ubuntu0.3 ?16:31
leftyfbgaelheart: testing in a VM is not a good way to test performance of any sort16:32
gaelheartfor example he wants to have plasma but i wanted to see if it causes issues before i install it on his laptop and many other reasons16:33

Guest39oerheks I just replaced "FROM ubuntu:latest" with "FROM ubuntu:noble" and it worked but hell if I have a clue, I also don't know :)16:35
gaelheartand for me personally some apps just don't work on fedora or they are hard to get16:36
gaelheartthere's a really good youtube downloader on ubuntu and it's also in the fedora repo but on fedora it doesn't work at all. just crashes16:37
oerheksknow issue gaelheart, youtube keeps changing code16:38
gaelheartguake doesn't work either16:38
gaelhearti don't use it but it's just another example16:39
leftyfbit sounds like you should be running ubuntu and sticking fedora in a VM16:39
gaelheartfedora is just hella stable so i don't want to replace it on my laptop16:39
gaelheartubuntu is buggy as hell16:40
gaelheartbut that's what he wants so that's on him lol16:40
gaelhearti love ubuntu though don't get me wrong but it gave me too many headaches16:41
gaelheartespecially the app store is an abomination16:42
gaelheartlol16:42
gaelheartapp center rather16:42
leftyfbgaelheart: lets us know if you have an support issues you'd like help with16:42
gaelheartthanks.  i was just wondering how to make it more chirpy, and the suggestion to get a lighter flavor is great.  I'm totally doing that16:43
gaelheartappreciate it as always.  I get a lot of help here for ubuntu16:44
gaelheartthis isn't the first time you guys fixed me up16:44
gaelhearti heard lxde was light but i was wondering if ubuntu lxqt might be lighter still16:45
leftyfbtry them16:46
gaelheartjust looking to save time and effort but yeah that is a good idea16:46
gaelhearti'll just check them both out and make my own decision16:47
gaelheartok well i have a doctor's appointment to get to.  I hope you all have a blessed day!  Take care now bye bye then16:49

MagioHi, I've been having intermittent connectivity issues since upgrading to 24.04, on the same laptop which hasn't had such issues since I first got it back on 19.10 and on every release since. I connect to WiFi just fine but after a seemingly random time the connection will just hang (not disconnect).18:01
MagioI'm mainly trying to get a lead on what's causing it for now, so far dmesg and journalctl haven't really provided anything that I could tie to the issue, any ideas where I could look?18:01
bpromptMagio: any more info on that, such as what wifi card  you use, drivers loaded18:15
Magiobprompt it's reported as "Ice Lake-LP PCH CNVi WiFi" and using the iwlwifi driver18:17

bpromptMagio:  I was thinking you could simply add some option to the iwlwifi.conf file  check ----> https://wiki.debian.org/iwlwifi#Troubleshooting   <--- something like "options iwlmvm power_scheme=1"18:32
Magiobprompt i've already tried disabling wifi powersave in a network manager conf file without success, do you think this could still yield different results?18:36
bpromptMagio: I'd think so, this is at another layer, at the wifi driver layer, as opposed to the network manager daemon18:36
bpromptMagio: requires a reboot though18:37
Magiobprompt I'll try it out but am not completely convinced it fits my issue, the wiki mentions connection drops and I don't think my laptop actually ever drops, it stays displayed as connected to the router, just loses internet connectivity after a while18:41
MagioStill, can't really hurt to give it a try, so thanks for the pointer !18:41
bpromptnp18:42
bpromptMagio: well, we can trade the "connection drops" for "connection becomes unstable" :)18:42
bprompt"drop" is just a subset of unstable =)18:43
Magioany idea of a command/log besides dmesg and journalctl I should check out to find a pertinent error message, should the issue stick around? bprompt18:43
bpromptMagio: "wireshark" logs could shed something, of course it has to be running when the network borks, but sounds more like driver issue18:44
