[00:20] Good afternoon, alt-tab for switching windows abruptly stopped working. [00:21] I checked Gnome/settings/keyboard shortcuts, it's still defined: Switch Windows Alt-Tab. I redefined it, just for good measure. [00:21] Jeepers! [00:21] And alt-tab still works in emacs, invokes ispell mode, etc. [00:29] Hey, do you have the name of a good software to update text in a pdf on ubuntu, I didn't find anything convincing [00:30] I don't suppose Libreoffice could help you? [00:31] Yeah I tried, and it kinda mess with the formatting of the document [00:34] nithramir: hi, is it for filling in a form or also for changing the text within pdf which is not part of a form? [00:34] It is for changing the text inside the pdf, it's just for changing a date [01:22] https://snapcraft.io/store?categories=featured&q=pdf [01:22] lolz [01:22] no choice? [01:26] oerheks: there's also https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/features/pdf-editor/ - could add a white image on top of the wrong date, and then add text with the correct date. kind of ugly, though. [01:31] tons of good editors, just a glitch [01:31] i hope omgubuntu does not publish this === JoeBk_ is now known as JoeBk [02:05] Hrm. Its weird that Ubuntu to my knowledge doesn't have a GUI front end to ufw the way Debian, Mint and MX-Linux do. [02:06] yeah [02:06] you got answer === juser__ is now known as JoeBk [02:10] NDPTAL85: gufw ? [02:11] toddc: Yeah I'm aware now but thanks! [02:11] toddc, he never used bing or google [02:11] it is not included to make you curious [02:11] what it does and what not [02:12] Thats not true. I did Google. But I searched for "Ubuntu Firewall" and got links about ufw. [02:15] yes, no, install gufw , reject all and let it learn from every applicationj [05:12] hi === Square3 is now known as Square === pushkarnk1 is now known as pushkarnk === mn is now known as Guest7890 === ramesses is now known as ramo [07:53] im back from banned [07:54] what wait wat [07:54] WHATTT BROOO SKIBIDI [07:55] whats up [07:55] Hello. is 24.04.1 already released? [07:56] ok [07:56] ubuntu [07:57] lts try hexchat on mint using distrosea.com [07:59] dreamon: 10 more days... https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/ubuntu-24-04-1-point-release-delayed-until-august-29/47110 "the Ubuntu Release Team made the decision to delay the release date by 2 weeks: until August 29." [08:01] ok im using linuxmint [08:12] ok im using ubuntu [08:17] dreamon, you can view https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/noble-numbat-24-04-1-lts-point-release-status-tracking/46972 for status details (inc. blocker bugs on 22.04->24.04 upgrades) [08:17] vlzuh, we don't support Linux Mint sorry; use Linux Mint support sites === pushkarnk1 is now known as pushkarnk [08:49] Hey, in Ubuntu 22.04 a recent system update has broken my webcam. The webcam LED is lit even before session login, and neither Cheese nor Firefox manage to access the camera. lsof /dev/video0 says that Pipewire (and then Firefox) use it, but killing them does not help to release the camera which stays lit :( [08:53] 24.04* :) === pushkarnk1 is now known as pushkarnk === TheCaptain8989 is now known as TheCaptain898 [09:14] the most recent change in 22.04 was the start of 22.04.5 changes; ie. kernel upgrade from 6.5 to 6.8; that will impact kernel modules (due to kernel change; 6.8 being the 22.04.5 kernel if using HWE) [09:16] I have 6.8.0-40-generic but I meant 24.04 guiverc (I used webcam on 24.04 successfully before, though) [09:17] Is it worth booting on an older kernel? [09:17] I can't think of any changes impacting noble (24.04) sorry.. I have noted 2-3 other queries though on support sites; but have nothing to offer... (I for sure would boot & try an older GRUB kernel if it was me; that'll confirm it was a kernel change that's impacting you; maybe then you can file a bug report on linux (ie. kernel)) [09:18] Thanks I'm rebooting now guiverc :P [09:24] The only other kernal that I have is 6.8.0-39-generic and it's experiencing the same issue :( [09:25] the would imply to be it's not related to 6.8.0-40 kernel update.. but some other package change; if you have clear memory on when it last worked (ie. boot day/time is what matters) & when it didn't, you could maybe look at what packages upgraded in that time (ie. /var/log/apt/history.log for list of package changes).. otherwise it's some change you may have made.. my 2c [09:29] Should I maybe **install** a way older kernel to test it? Maybe 6.7? Or the first kernel that 24.04 initially came with [09:30] That problem started very recently, like last week, but I can't say what else has changed, expcet system updates [09:31] If it was me; I'd stick to Ubuntu supported kernels (alas that doesn't give you much to test with on your box... I'd probably boot install media LIVE (ie. TRY) and see if it occurs there IF POSSIBLE) [09:31] Oh I have an idea... I have installed motion recently [09:31] * guiverc is currently in 3 discussions; so sorry if some details aren't perfect [09:32] OK np guiverc :D [09:32] Just uninstalled motion and it now works!! [09:32] However I thought the motion daemon was off [09:32] Maybe it was actually on [09:32] It's weird that lsof doesn't show motion however [09:33] * guiverc has no idea sorry; and gotta go away from keyboard awhile... [09:36] No worries, thanks guiverc :) [09:36] enjoy your day [09:43] Good morning folks. I am having an issue with my laptop running Ubuntu 24. O. The screen keeps going back as it constantly goes in wake up mode, the issue also occurs at the logon screen. Any help?

[11:54] ok [11:55] azure.archive.ubuntu.com is an alias for ubuntu-archive-asm.trafficmanager.net. [11:55] ubuntu-archive-asm.trafficmanager.net is an alias for cloud-mirror-lb.westeurope.cloudapp.azure.com. [11:55] cloud-mirror-lb.westeurope.cloudapp.azure.com has address 20.54.144.51 [11:55] what again [11:56] so it ist at least hosted by microsoft [11:56] I see that, wondering who manages the repo sync. [11:56] i hope a cronjob [11:58] well, it's not doing its job, http://azure.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/ does not seem to exist, while archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/ does. [12:01] if azures uses that archive and it does not work open a support ticket with azure [12:01] *azure [12:02] https://askubuntu.com/questions/1513131/azure-archive-ubuntu-com-missing-data-ubuntu-pool-missing-ubuntu-ubuntu-pool [12:30] What's the bash command for finding a file somewhere on the *local* computer? Need to exclude /mnt since there are some *loads* of files/folders there. sudo find / -name myfile -not \( -path /mnt -prune \) still searches /mnt, showing 'Access denied' messages. [12:31] When you use the -xdev option, find will restrict its search to the filesystem on which the search starts and will not cross into other filesystems (for example, it won't search mounted filesystems like /mnt or /proc). [12:33] anyone running dosemu2? Having permission issues executing it from a restricted system-level account [12:34] ravage: Wow, what a difference in speed.

[17:15] Im thinking if something got reset to some defaults which are bad? [17:15] like when I updated from 23.10 to 24.04 [17:16] I aint that smart [17:16] no idear [17:18] logind.conf has nothing to do with hardware going to sleep, if that's the issue [17:23] hello beloved friends [17:23] J [17:29] hello new best friend === root is now known as Guest3333 [17:34] Guest3333, fix your connection please [17:47] ip a [17:48] that won't work here :) [17:54] oerheks: please fix your connection, also [17:54] Is there anything special needed to update packages from a ppa? [17:54] I consider apt pretty special. [17:58] belovedsandworm: oerheks has never timed out here and has had a connection here for 4 days. Lets try to keep the useless comments to ourselves [17:59] I installed pipewire-jack and qjackctl. I am not seeing many "nodes" in the qjackctl graph though. I have firefox, obs running and they don't show up in the graph. How come? [18:00] leftyfb: wasn't talking about that. please mind your business if you aren't tracking [18:00] belovedsandworm: exactly, mind your business and stay on topic [18:00] no u first [18:01] I'm just trying to get some help updating my ppa [18:01] your attacks are not welcome here, belovedsandworm. [18:01] !coc > belovedsandworm [18:01] belovedsandworm: Please see my private message [18:01] anyway [18:01] is there something else I need to do to update a ppa or no? [18:02] no [18:02] I've updated/upgraded but getting complaints that my browser is outdated [18:02] What have you done already? Why do you think you need to do something else? [18:03] Which browser? If you know the packagename, share `apt policy firefox [18:04] ok, 1 sec and I'll get that info [18:04] so any idea on how to troubleshoot this? [18:05] version of ubuntu ? 129.0.1 is the current FF [18:05] 129.0.1 current for 24.04 anyway [18:05] enigma9o7: https://termbin.com/ywl0 [18:06] Ah, so the problem is the snap package has a higher epoch, so apt sees it as a higher version number. [18:07] If you want to make the one from ppa higher priority, you'll have to set it that way. It wont install with apt by default until apt policy shows it as the candidate. [18:07] snap list shows no firefox snap installed. It was odd to me that it showed up [18:07] I expressly removed the snap a while ago [18:07] thats because ubuntu has a 'firefox' package that will install the snap. [18:07] that would explain it [18:08] but if you remove the snap, it doesn't remove ubuntu's actual firefox package. [18:08] but ubuntu's actual firefox package isnt firefox, it just triggers the snap to install. [18:08] ok [18:09] how do I set the ppa to have higher priority. I definitely don't want the firefox snap because some features are broken in that [18:10] echo ' [18:10] Package: * [18:10] ...(truncated) [18:11] oh sorry, that's not where you added it from [18:11] change that origin to your ppa [18:11] sorry, not sure I understand. Is the origin set in a file somewhere? [18:13] Do it the way the first answer describes here: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1399383/how-to-install-firefox-as-a-traditional-deb-package-without-snap-in-ubuntu-22 [18:13] Yes, it's creating a file, that's what the 'tee' line is doing. [18:14] ok, cool. thank you [18:23] I'm not sure this is working. [18:23] I followed all the steps, then I ran sudo apt install firefox [18:23] it is saying firefox is already the newest version (1:1snap1-0ubuntu5). [18:24] but I am pretty sure the firefox I have installed is not a snap, since snap list shows no firefox [18:26] ok, so technically I have installed the package firefox-esr which is version 115.14.0esr (64-bit) [18:27] If you've updated your preferences, then run `sudo apt update` then check `apt policy firefox` [18:27] If the ppa version is now the candidate, you can `sudo apt upgrade` and it'll install it (or `sudo apt install firefox`) [18:28] firefox-esr is a seperate package [18:29] When you check policy, if you put that preference in as shown in that link, it'll show the snap as -1 and your ppa one as 1001, and thus the ppa one will be the install candidate [18:32] ok [18:33] looks right, yeah? https://termbin.com/gxmc [18:34] olen [18:35] Yes it does sandworm. So all you should hav eto do now is `sudo apt upgrade` or `sudo apt install firefox` and it will install it for you.
