[00:45] <keithzg> So 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? Yeesh
[00:45] <sarnold> symlink won't work, bind mount might
[00:46] <sarnold> keithzg: this might be helpful https://snapcraft.io/docs/home-outside-home
[00:48] <keithzg> sarnold: 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?
[00:49] <keithzg> Frankly I'm tempted to go with the easiest solution of just removing snaps from this system and sticking with Debian packages
[00:49]  * 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 them
[00:49] <sarnold> yeah if what you want is available in both formats, or could be made available in both formats, just using a deb would be easy
[00:51] <keithzg> Didn'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!
[00:52] <sarnold> ahhhhhh yeah
[00:54] <keithzg> Addig 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 ;)
[00:55] <sarnold> excellent idea!

[07:21] <IrcsomeBot> <Zebraherz> How do I securely update to the Nvidia 550 driver as it doesn`t show up in "additional drivers"? I`m currently using 535.

[13:42] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[14:18] <Guest9308> anyone installed office 2016 on kubuntu? tried playonlinux's method B for office 2016 already
[14:33] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[15:17] <IrcsomeBot> <zenort> Is there a way to install Ubuntu with just console environment?I wish to learn to configure my desktop almost from scratch.
[15:21] <IrcsomeBot> <zenort> I mean is there a Ubuntu minimal install iso with just console environment?
[16:53] <oerheks> zenort there is ubuntu-server
[17:16] <IrcsomeBot> <Zebraherz> No support on this issue? (re @Zebraherz: Hi all

[17:21] <oerheks> you could try the driver ppa, use at your own risk  https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa
[17:29] <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)
[17:30] <oerheks> i don;t understand flatpak.
[17:30] <oerheks> they must have a manual?
[17:34] <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.
[17:38] <oerheks> you wrote it was flatpak ...
[17:38] <oerheks> anyway, if you used original repos, just add the ppa and update. then see if 550 is there.
[17:49] <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 ...)

[22:49] <Roey> hi
[22:51] <Roey> why 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".
