keithzgSo wait, snaps still don't support home directories outside of /home? Even when the user's home is configured for /home/them and symlinked in so that it's a valid path? Yeesh00:45
sarnoldsymlink won't work, bind mount might00:45
sarnoldkeithzg: this might be helpful https://snapcraft.io/docs/home-outside-home00:46
keithzgsarnold: Uh hmmm, I wonder if `snap set system homedirs` would break snaps for users that have local accounts and home storage on this system then though? Because I could point that to the directory that the homes are being symlinked in from but then I would guess that the default might be broken?00:48
keithzgFrankly I'm tempted to go with the easiest solution of just removing snaps from this system and sticking with Debian packages00:49
* keithzg has to call it a day for work anyways, might make different decisions when not frustrated by YET AGAIN snaps causing problems every time I run into use of them00:49
sarnoldyeah if what you want is available in both formats, or could be made available in both formats, just using a deb would be easy00:49
keithzgDidn't even realize at first it was a Snap, one of those cases where something was replaced quietly, was setting up a system at work to be used by a new person and I figured we'd just use their LDAP account rather than creating a local account and then I got waylaid for a while being confused by why the default browser was throwing an error when trying to launch!00:51
sarnoldahhhhhh yeah00:52
keithzgAddig the path to the shared NFS mount for user homedirs via `snap set system homedirs` doesn't seem to have immediately worked at least, maybe something needs to be restarted first? Sounds like something for Tomorrow's keithzg to figure out ;)00:54
sarnoldexcellent idea!00:55

oerheksyou could try the driver ppa, use at your own risk  https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa17:21
IrcsomeBot<Zebraherz> How do I uninstall the current driver 100% correctly? It is a flatpak... org.freedesktop...17:29
IrcsomeBot<Zebraherz> And why doesn't the new driver appear by itself, as it is now a stable release? (re @IrcsomeBot: <oerheks> you could try the driver ppa, use at your own risk  https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa)17:29
oerheksi don;t understand flatpak.17:30
oerheksthey must have a manual?17:30
IrcsomeBot<Zebraherz> Ok, I`ll try it on a experimental installation.17:34
IrcsomeBot<Zebraherz> I thought you knew this for sure because the driver was installed via the normal "other software" route.17:34
oerheksyou wrote it was flatpak ...17:38
oerheksanyway, if you used original repos, just add the ppa and update. then see if 550 is there.17:38
IrcsomeBot<Zebraherz> Yes, surprisingly, this is a Flatpak. I was wondering too... but when updating I saw that it's a flatpak (org.freedesktop... etc.) (re @IrcsomeBot: <oerheks> you wrote it was flatpak ...)17:49

Roeywhy is my sound so garbled over a bluetooth headset?  I used "pcatl list" to find out more information. https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/RDXrRHSCd2/  <- I don't know which profile this thing is using.  Am I even looking at the right entry? there are a bunch of entries in the output of "pactl list".22:51
