| enigma9o7 | The only thiing newer on the ppa is the 555 which I think is beta anyway, and you're trying to avoid problems. | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| enigma9o7 | If you and ravage are right, that your gpu is indeed supported by 550 driver (which I believe you are) and the bug is that its not being listed in ubuntu drivers as an option, then installing it manually should be fine anyway. | 00:00 |
| enigma9o7 | But reporting the bug against ubuntu-drivers-common, that nvidia-550 isn't being listed even tho your gpu supports it, is a good idea. | 00:01 |
| ravage | it is not the tool's fault | 00:02 |
| ravage | it needs to be fixed in nvidia-driver package | 00:02 |
| enigma9o7 | sudo apt install nvidia-graphics-drivers-550 | 00:02 |
| ravage | the tool itselfs knows norhing about the supported cards | 00:02 |
| ravage | *nothing | 00:03 |

| TargetBall | I tried to install firefox and it didn't work? | 04:05 |
| xangua | Firefox comes installed in Ubuntu | 04:08 |
| TargetBall | Why does it say "firefox: command not found?" | 04:09 |
| toddc | TargetBall: sudo snap install firefox | 04:15 |
| TargetBall | Thanks toddc, Now I think it's installed but it's saying "Error no DISPLAY environment varible specified" | 04:17 |
| mybalzitch | why not start it from the shortcut inside your windowmanager | 04:23 |
| mybalzitch | instead of the terminal | 04:23 |
| enigma9o7 | then you can't see the errors | 04:24 |
| TargetBall | windowmanager? | 04:24 |
| enigma9o7 | is this ubuntu-server you're playing with targetball? | 04:25 |
| TargetBall | Yeah, how do I get to the desktop on this thing? | 04:26 |
| enigma9o7 | You probably don't have a desktop environment installed. | 04:26 |
| enigma9o7 | And I bet snap let you install firefox without one cuz it's not a regular deb package with system dependencies. | 04:26 |
| enigma9o7 | You can install a desktop environment if you don't have one, targetball. | 04:27 |
| enigma9o7 | If you want the full ubuntu desktop with all the bells and whistles "sudo apt install ubuntu-desktop" | 04:27 |
| enigma9o7 | Alternatively you could install a simple window manager or a simpler desktop environment, etc. | 04:28 |
| TargetBall | I'm just fuckin with you lol, and I wanted to see how active IRC is. | 04:28 |

| zakaria | Hello people, I have reported a bug while ago in launchpad https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/2061840 but there's no reaction from devs, maintainers... is it something normal? or I left something? | 13:41 |
| oerheks | for now, we have an outage | 13:42 |
| ogra_ | zakaria, looks like a kernel bug, you should try to ask in the #ubuntu-kernel channel | 13:48 |
| zakaria | Alright, thanks for the information | 13:48 |
| pycurious | any ideas why this is hanging: gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys A1715D88E1DF1F24 ? | 14:30 |
| pycurious | gpg: keyserver receive failed: Network is unreachable | 14:31 |
| lotuspsychje | pycurious: ubuntu.com has some down issues atm | 14:32 |
| UnivrslSuprBox | You can see the status of many Canonical-provided services at https://status.canonical.com/ (keyserver is currently down) | 14:33 |
| pycurious | @lotuspsychje Thanks | 14:51 |
| Guest77 | I'm on ubuntu 22.04 LTS. In some earlier version of evince I remember seeing a "back" button I could use after clicking an internal hyperlink in a PDF file. Is there any way to step back in the navigation history in the current version? | 17:25 |
| Guest77 | Yes, alt-p. Nothing without a keyboard though :-( | 17:29 |
| lotuspsychje | zakaria: the developer set your bug to incomplete to test a latest noble kernel, after that you need to set your bug status back to 'new' | 17:37 |
| zakaria | what should I do ? please would you clarify ? @lotuspsychje | 17:38 |
| lotuspsychje | zakaria: and what ogra_ stated would indeed also help, ping the kernel devs about it | 17:38 |
| guest754 | apt install tor-browser doesn't find what I need. Is tor-browser available under a different name? | 17:39 |
| === jan is now known as Guest3239 | ||
| lotuspsychje | zakaria: ontop your bug under the 'status' click incomplete, and change it back to 'new' | 17:40 |
| zakaria | even I reported while ago ? | 17:40 |
| lotuspsychje | zakaria: status incomplete means the developer needs more info, wich you gave/tested right | 17:41 |
| lotuspsychje | change back to new, will notify the developer | 17:42 |
| zakaria | DONE :) | 17:45 |
| lotuspsychje | ok tnx zakaria and good luck with it | 17:45 |
| zakaria | I hope they react with it, I feel that I'm banned for using Ubuntu Noble (now I'm on openSUSE Leap 15.6) | 17:45 |
| lotuspsychje | zakaria: banned? | 17:46 |
| zakaria | not literally lol | 17:46 |
| zakaria | just unusable | 17:47 |
| guest754 | ubuntu is unusable? really? | 17:48 |
| enigma9o7 | guest, i would suggest searching, I dunno myself, but `apt search tor` might help find what you need if its in repos | 17:48 |
| zakaria | for me Ubuntu Noble (and Debian 12), I can't use it(them) but other distros works fine | 17:48 |
| lotuspsychje | zakaria: lets assume its kernel 6.8 series affecting you, maybe its an idea to test some !mainline higher kernel versions | 17:49 |
| zakaria | I have use it for PopOS, I could even boot for newer kernel, now I'm in openSUSE with6.4.0-150600.21-default works fine | 17:52 |
| zakaria | and Fedora 40 also worked good (plugin and plugout the power supply cable) | 17:52 |
| guest754 | but this channel is for the support of the greatest and best distribution, UwUntu | 17:53 |
| zakaria | I know, my bug within Ubuntu | 17:56 |
| zakaria | I were Ubuntu user for a long time, but using Noble (and Debian 12) ruined my productivity | 17:57 |
| lotuspsychje | !discuss | zakaria | 17:57 |
| ubottu | zakaria: Want to talk about Ubuntu, but don't have a support question? /join #ubuntu-discuss for non-support Ubuntu discussion, or try #ubuntu-offtopic for general chat. Thanks! | 17:57 |
| zakaria | does the last kernel in mainline works fine ? | 18:02 |
| lotuspsychje | zakaria: mainline kernels are for testing purposes, not daily use, experiment a few of them | 18:03 |
| Steeve | How do the HWE kernels get enabled / turned on? I just realized that 2 of my laptops have entirely different kernels, even though both are on 22.04. One has 6.5 and another has 5.15 | 18:10 |
| lotuspsychje | !hwe | Steeve | 18:10 |
| ubottu | Steeve: The Ubuntu LTS enablement stacks provide newer kernel and X support for existing LTS releases, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack | 18:10 |
| Steeve | Hoe does it get enabled though? Does the installer do it automatically if it infers that you have "newer" hardware? | 18:11 |
| Steeve | Also that link is giving me a 503 | 18:12 |
| lotuspsychje | Steeve: there is some maintanance going on today | 18:12 |
| lotuspsychje | Steeve: when HWE kernel gets available for a release, they will offer it in the new iso or the user can grab it manualy with apt | 18:13 |
| Steeve | oh, interesting. Maybe I used a newer point release iso to do the 2nd install | 18:14 |
| lotuspsychje | Steeve: so stock kernel vs HWE kernel depends on wich iso you still got | 18:14 |
| Steeve | makes sense, thanks | 18:14 |

| feurig | any idea how to get rid of snapd if we aren't using snap. | 19:09 |
| feurig | any idea how to get rid of snapd if we aren't using snap? | 19:09 |
| feurig | its hanging up the update process for no reason. | 19:10 |
| feurig | mostly i am in a loop. | 19:10 |
| feurig | dpkg --configure -a | 19:12 |
| feurig | Setting up snapd (2.63+22.04) ... | 19:12 |
| feurig | hangs forever. | 19:13 |
| feurig | but i cant remove the thing until this goes away. #nopolitewords | 19:13 |
| feurig | I am not using snaps for anything. its just a bonus of running ubuntu | 19:13 |
| feurig | and more importantly I can update or install anything. | 19:15 |
| mgedmin | any ideas why it's hanging? do you see any processes using CPU in top? | 19:15 |
| mgedmin | maybe run pstree -a and see what subprocesses dpkg has started? | 19:16 |
| mgedmin | some of the preinstalled default packages in ubuntu are snaps, like firefox, or snap-store | 19:16 |
| mgedmin | I think you can apt remove snapd if you plan to install a web browser from elsewhere | 19:16 |
| feurig | i just want it to go away snaps suck. I only use them for lxd because Its the only way it works. | 19:17 |
| mgedmin | I'm not sure what happens if you try to apt remove a half-installed package | 19:17 |
| feurig | I cant apt remove snapd because of the the above | 19:17 |
| mgedmin | does it hang in the prerm/postrm, or does it try to configure it before removal? | 19:17 |
| feurig | root@virgil:~# apt remove snapd | 19:18 |
| feurig | E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. | 19:18 |
| mgedmin | ah | 19:18 |
| mgedmin | so when you do the configure thing, try the pstree -a (or just ps f) in a different terminal to see what is going on | 19:19 |
| mgedmin | I see that | 19:23 |
| mgedmin | I see that /var/lib/dpkg/info/snapd.postinst does _a lot_; it's hard to guess which part freezes | 19:23 |
| feurig | ├─sshd───sshd───bash───dpkg─┬─sh───sh───dpkg-status | 19:25 |
| feurig | │ └─snapd.postinst───deb-systemd-inv───systemctl───systemd-tty-ask | 19:25 |
| feurig | mgedmin: yeah and there is no --verbose or -vvv to help | 19:26 |
| sixwheeledbeast | this is 22.04? | 19:27 |
| feurig | yeah. 24.04 broke a bunch of stuff on this particular container. | 19:29 |
| feurig | mgedmin: Thanks. added exit 0 to the top of /var/lib/dpkg/info/snapd.postinst and apt removed it. | 19:30 |
| sixwheeledbeast | It is possible to remove but you will have to fix whatever apt is complaining about. It will complain it's missing and/or be re-installed without further hackery. | 19:31 |
| feurig | it wasnt possible to remove until i hacked the post install. | 19:31 |
| sixwheeledbeast | remove --purge worked fine when i did it. | 19:32 |
| feurig | sixwheeledbeast: Thanks. I will try that next time | 19:32 |
| sixwheeledbeast | You'll have to setup a preference to pin it in apt if you don't want it to return. also expect apparmor to complain on boot now. | 19:33 |
| sixwheeledbeast | you can resolve that in the usual apparmor symlinking to disable way. | 19:34 |
| white-wolf | https://www.leetchi.com/fr/c/creation-dentreprise-autour-du-hurd-7280787?utm_source=copylink&utm_medium=social_sharing | 19:37 |
| feurig | sixwheeledbeast: thanks again. | 19:48 |
| feurig | mgedmin: same. thanks. | 19:49 |
| sixwheeledbeast | no idea if it works for 24.04 yet... | 19:49 |
| feurig | 24.04 has some zingers. The security tightening foobarred a bunch of my privilaged containers and netplan broke a bunch of my servers where I had to actually recover them from the console. | 19:50 |
| feurig | Guess thats what happens when you pay more attention to workstations than servers. | 19:50 |
