| Didact | hi all, looking to upgrade my 16.04 to latest lts, terrified of upgrading as it causes all sorts of problems in the past | 00:12 |
|---|---|---|
| Didact | think I'll switch to wifi and bbl | 00:14 |
| Didact | ok, I did sudo apt upgrade and hit Y and then it said canceled... | 00:21 |
| Bashing-om | Didact: 16.04 is End_Of_Life - the software repo no longer exists. | 00:23 |
| Bashing-om | !q6.04 | Didact | 00:23 |
| Didact | yeah, I'm trying to upgrade | 00:23 |
| Bashing-om | !16.04 | Didact | 00:24 |
| ubottu | Didact: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xenial Xerus) was the 24th release of Ubuntu. !End-of-life was April 30th, 2021. Paid support (ESM) is available. See also !esm, !eol, !eolupgrade | 00:24 |
| Didact | !eolupgrade | 00:24 |
| ubottu | End-Of-Life is when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop. Make sure to update Ubuntu before it goes EOL so you get updates promptly for newly-discovered security vulnerabilities. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOL and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more info. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 00:24 |
| Didact | does that mean it won't upgrade? | 00:24 |
| enigma9o7 | Wouldn't it be easier to install clean anyway? You'll probably save a lot of time. | 00:25 |
| Didact | I'm sure I've forgetten most of the stuff I've configured on the box by now | 00:25 |
| Bashing-om | Didact: You are in for a long hard ride to upgrade from 16.04 - It can be done but the time and bacdwidrg ! .. 16.04 -> 18.04 (EOL) -> 20.04 -> 22.04 -> 24.04 !! | 00:25 |
| Didact | k | 00:26 |
| Didact | will have to document what I currently have configured, etc | 00:26 |
| enigma9o7 | If you are gunna try the eolupgrade, also gotta make sure you're using 64-bit version of xenial to start with..... | 00:27 |
| Didact | the biggest problem is that I have the ubuntu box as a NAT gateway... | 00:27 |
| Didact | k, how do I do that? | 00:28 |
| enigma9o7 | there's lots of ways, i'd look at `uname -a` to see what kernel, if its i386/i686 or amd64 | 00:29 |
| Didact | yeah, x86_64 | 00:30 |
| enigma9o7 | so at least one snag you won't hit | 00:30 |
| Didact | ok, I'll be back in a couple days after I document what I'm doing and offload stuff from the server... | 00:33 |
| Didact | thanks for the help | 00:33 |

| circle | Hi if a laptop or desktop was Ubuntu certified with say a 5.10.0-1020-oem kernel, what current kernel should one use? Are the oem patches eventually applied upstream existing in the plain default kernels of 2024? Or are they carried forwards into the current oem kernels? How do I arrange to use the oem kernel? what's the difference between OEM | 08:53 |
| circle | and HWE (hardware enablement)? Is there a webpage that answers these questions? I have found https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/ask-us-anything-about-ubuntu-kernels/27664/16 , is that information still valid? (Sounds like HWE is more experimental than OEM, and OEM is just a step ahead of generic kernel.) | 08:53 |
| circle | But other comments on that page suggest it's the other way around, so very unclear. | 08:55 |
| mybalzitch | circle: did you try your hardware and it doesn't wokr? | 08:59 |
| circle | mybalzitch: I did and there were some quirks, TBH it was a while ago, so I don't recall, maybe wifi or video. On one I made the mistake of buying a linux-compatible laptop from Dell and paying extra for a Windows license, to discover the consequence was Dell tech support doesn't want to talk about linux problems. | 09:06 |
| Eccentric81 | hey guys assuming i installed flatpaks on any linux distro | 09:40 |
| Eccentric81 | i maybe liked older wayland look and 'oxygen' themes of forever ago decades before mac os | 09:40 |
| Eccentric81 | did it for linux before plasma | 09:41 |
| Eccentric81 | but then the themes and stuff maybe seems crisp but somehow less display res ? | 09:41 |
| Eccentric81 | maybe a wayland video something make it not near year 2000 plasma tv support that | 09:41 |
| Eccentric81 | the most recent linux distros now allow for | 09:41 |
| Eccentric81 | heres the real question, if i use flatpak command or apt or any dpkg or dnf | 09:42 |
| Eccentric81 | how do i search all wayland as a wildcard? | 09:42 |
| Eccentric81 | and then remove them? do i search then | remove somehow ? | 09:43 |
| Eccentric81 | i maybe confused with powershell and dont know how to do it? | 09:43 |
| Eccentric81 | would i need to cat the output into a file first then run a selective remove query like its a DB? | 09:43 |
| Eccentric81 | how do i? ... i dont script much | 09:43 |
| Eccentric81 | oh yeah i thought the autoremove was for stuff like this | 09:50 |
| Eccentric81 | but it didnt seem to do .. any remove? | 09:50 |
| Eccentric81 | so why does KDE sing about yr 2000 plasma tv panel support | 09:56 |
| toddc | auto remove will only remove older unused packages the have been upgreaded to a newer version and no longer needed | 09:56 |
| Eccentric81 | yet chrome dances about chrome plating render res and samsung tvs far denser all things zen titanium res | 09:56 |
| Eccentric81 | awww autoremove for many things says it removes dependencies as well as the app or like a 'new user' cleans out user installs | 09:57 |
| Eccentric81 | so i was hopeful yet frustrated | 09:57 |
| Eccentric81 | so i realised trying for the older look was fun nostalgia but maybe rolled back x display or something | 09:57 |
| Eccentric81 | when i put all the wayland stuff | 09:58 |
| Eccentric81 | what command could i query apt or flatpak then delete a name that occurs in a search or just remove it | 09:58 |
| Eccentric81 | as typing remove i see it still in flatpak and its INSTALLED | 09:58 |
| toddc | no idea on flatpacks since those are not supported here other stuff is a mutitude of changes beyond my limits | 09:59 |
| Eccentric81 | was theres a dozen or more.. i think each time unticking them all.. | 09:59 |
| Eccentric81 | same for apt install.. there should be apt remove but you dont wanna search and type remove each one | 09:59 |
| Eccentric81 | individual right? | 09:59 |
| Eccentric81 | u wanna find all entries the word occurs and remove them ALL is what im trying to puzzle | 10:00 |
| Eccentric81 | it SOUNDS easy.. but its almost like its made to not do that? | 10:00 |
| toddc | it can be done if you have a guide or the skills and then be abk=le to deal with any unexpected isues | 10:01 |
| Eccentric81 | i just think my uninventive way of output search to a file and select from it for the function sounds dumb | 10:02 |
| Eccentric81 | i hoped theres a better way | 10:02 |
| Eccentric81 | i wonder what happens if i try yum package cleanup for old kernels and --leaves and other stuff? | 10:06 |
| Eccentric81 | guess i'll play around with installing a bunch of package managers | 10:06 |
| Eccentric81 | and see what works and what doesnt | 10:06 |
| === mrbutthead6 is now known as mrbutthead | ||
| Eccentric81 | back again.. | 10:33 |
| Eccentric81 | so say i remove VLC. | 10:34 |
| Eccentric81 | what if theres a bunch of vlc streamer and plugins and stuff.. | 10:34 |
| Eccentric81 | that sticks around forever despite vlc being removed? | 10:34 |
| Eccentric81 | and they're not dependencys.. | 10:34 |
| Eccentric81 | yet its got matroska and other stuff under its umbrella too? | 10:34 |
| Eccentric81 | but whatever i can put in other media players.. kmplayer or whatever | 10:34 |
| Eccentric81 | kodi ? | 10:35 |
| Eccentric81 | so i want ALL the VLC gone? | 10:35 |
| Eccentric81 | i cant find an answer how to do it when i say | 10:35 |
| Eccentric81 | list installed | 10:35 |
| Eccentric81 | i see a bunch of stuff | 10:35 |
| Eccentric81 | isnt there an easy type the word in and it 'removes' all with the letters VLC? | 10:35 |
| Eccentric81 | if i delete it might not pull related files | 10:36 |
| Eccentric81 | say i wanted to remove anything with the word proxy, files or apps or any instance of the word | 10:41 |
| Eccentric81 | would a recursive delete be my only option? | 10:41 |
| Eccentric81 | or any instance of a http server httpd ? | 10:41 |
| Eccentric81 | or bridge | 10:42 |
| Eccentric81 | what if apt list --installed | 10:44 |
| Eccentric81 | shows heaps of stuff i maybe rather not need and i just remove all and type to put back the few things i think i want | 10:44 |
| Eccentric81 | can i remove all of the installed list? | 10:44 |
| Eccentric81 | or anything in the list where proxy or bridge or http is mentioned? | 10:45 |
| Eccentric81 | rm -r -f maybe does nothing? | 10:45 |
| ravage | on a default installation none of this is installed. so at some point you installed those packages | 10:47 |
| ravage | so you remove them wit "apt remove" and packages that are still on the system that were installed as a result of that can be removes with "apt autoremove" | 10:48 |
| ravage | do not blindly remove packages from your system | 10:48 |
| ravage | also do not delete any random files that belong to packages. you will end up with a broken system | 10:48 |
| ravage | if you think your system is too bloated in general backup your data and try a clean install | 10:49 |
| === Guest2409 is now known as nobincen | ||
| Eccentric81 | its not about it being bloated | 11:04 |
| Eccentric81 | any and all distros even official | 11:04 |
| Eccentric81 | will have standard codecs players plugins and video tools or networking things | 11:04 |
| Eccentric81 | and it maybe... like take iptables or httpd | 11:04 |
| Eccentric81 | its maybe been made easier or set with a default | 11:05 |
| Eccentric81 | so i want to remove ALL proxy ALL bridges and ALL HTTP server | 11:05 |
| Eccentric81 | and flush and reinstall IPtables with clean and empty | 11:05 |
| Eccentric81 | and do the same for players and codecs as it seems it maybe improves quality | 11:05 |
| Eccentric81 | i wanted to ensure the OLD window managers of the 80s and 90s.. | 11:06 |
| Eccentric81 | arent still in there and the NEW ones only | 11:06 |
| Eccentric81 | like KDE plasma or titaniumzen | 11:06 |
| ravage | I'm not sure what your actual support question is right now | 11:06 |
| Eccentric81 | remove older wayland and older xorg default freeware generic driver | 11:06 |
| ravage | Ubuntu only comes with one version for a package | 11:06 |
| Eccentric81 | when i apt remove or dnf remove or flatpak uncheck | 11:06 |
| Eccentric81 | whatever package manager i install | 11:07 |
| Eccentric81 | i use those to list installed | 11:07 |
| ravage | 2 if you add snaps | 11:07 |
| Eccentric81 | and i see theres stuff related those things still | 11:07 |
| Eccentric81 | i tried the wsl --install microsoft appstore ubuntu and it gamed awful lous | 11:08 |
| Eccentric81 | lousy | 11:08 |
| ravage | If you use WSL I think there is a room for that here too | 11:08 |
| Eccentric81 | so now im in fedora40 unofficial nobara i flatpack searched hipify, dxvk-native and searched and enabled rocm and checked on all the VULKAN stuff like VMA vulkan memory allocator | 11:09 |
| ravage | Please contact Fedora support then | 11:09 |
| Eccentric81 | but i tried to use apt and other package managers | 11:09 |
| ravage | This is Ubuntu | 11:09 |
| Eccentric81 | yes ubuntu uses apt and can install flatpak the same | 11:09 |
| Eccentric81 | i can even switch to gentoo | 11:09 |
| Eccentric81 | the issue is, remove wayland says like Xwayland X11 videobridge and display server | 11:10 |
| ravage | Feel free to do so. But ask your distributions support | 11:10 |
| Eccentric81 | and that it wont let me remove it | 11:10 |
| Eccentric81 | look there is no distribution linux compiled anything and runs anything | 11:10 |
| ravage | We only support Ubuntu here | 11:10 |
| Eccentric81 | every OS on earth is identical windows android and mac because they support the same hardware.. | 11:10 |
| Eccentric81 | cameras keyboards and disk drives.. | 11:10 |
| ravage | Please join the fedora support channels | 11:10 |
| ravage | Have a nice day | 11:11 |
| Eccentric81 | the OS is just read write copy delete for devices | 11:11 |
| Eccentric81 | if it cant use that device like windows couldnt cheap tiny hand sized displays and buttons for cameras | 11:11 |
| Eccentric81 | then they add like a few lines to the same linux kernel and call it android | 11:11 |
| Eccentric81 | the guy that did it and sold it to google is known | 11:11 |
| Eccentric81 | and documented | 11:11 |
| Eccentric81 | its like 99% identical kernel which is the OS | 11:11 |
| Eccentric81 | an FTP and web browser has the ENTIRE OS inside | 11:12 |
| Eccentric81 | its just what devices it supports as they wanna sell u expensive hardware and display panel controller NVME | 11:12 |
| Eccentric81 | rather than raspberry pi riscv | 11:12 |
| Eccentric81 | so some OS not use some devices | 11:12 |
| Eccentric81 | but its ALL THE SAME KERNEL and device support understand? | 11:12 |
| Eccentric81 | do you even know what a linux kernel is? | 11:12 |
| Eccentric81 | official build just means they sell you paid support dumbo | 11:13 |
| Eccentric81 | do i look like im gonna pay those guys for business support for server uptime and reliability as a disability pensioner? | 11:13 |
| Eccentric81 | you not having any sort of clue to an extend im offended by your existence is shocking | 11:13 |
| Eccentric81 | *extent .. sorry partitions $extend | 11:14 |
| ananke | Eccentric81: ffs, go rant elsewhere | 11:14 |
| Eccentric81 | so no going to pay some fags to not have a clue isnt going to help no matter what channel | 11:14 |
| Eccentric81 | they're already clueless | 11:15 |
| Eccentric81 | now how do i delete keywords files from the entire hard disk forcibly? | 11:15 |
| Eccentric81 | as the rm or delete wont do it? | 11:15 |
| Guest4 | hey! Ubuntu offers a low-latency kernel, but I have trouble finding out how this differs from the normal kernel. I found this config: https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux-lowlatency/+git/focal/tree/debian.master/config/amd64/config.flavour.lowlatency . Are these the only changes of the low-latency kernel? I know that | 11:27 |
| Guest4 | upstream linux has an RT patch. Does the low-latency kernel also patch some functions? | 11:27 |
| Eccentric81 | theres no such thing as a low latency kernel.. all kernels are 0 latency | 11:31 |
| Eccentric81 | period | 11:31 |
| Eccentric81 | they trying to make expensive recording studio fags seem superior and lag your PC and make your AV less HQ | 11:31 |
| Eccentric81 | so you upgrade and pay for special hardware inputs/decks/mixers | 11:31 |
| Eccentric81 | and expensive analog | 11:32 |
| Eccentric81 | because cheap digital IS analog at vastly higher sampling/quality and precision and accuracy | 11:32 |
| Eccentric81 | all their expensive farts arent worth much since AC97 $10 USB soundcard plugins | 11:32 |
| Eccentric81 | with correct amplification and scaling maths | 11:32 |
| Eccentric81 | and real soundwaves rendering and plugins | 11:32 |
| Eccentric81 | so if you wanted to record sound or video and capture it low latency | 11:33 |
| Eccentric81 | your RAM and OS have garbage piled on, in windows theres session manager registry stuff | 11:33 |
| Eccentric81 | and environment and a heap of enumerator bullshit you have to somehow get rid of | 11:33 |
| Eccentric81 | i cant get rid of most of it.. linux you can super floppy disk mininal install and hardware IO stuff | 11:34 |
| Eccentric81 | and patch in free realtime kernels | 11:34 |
| Eccentric81 | and middle finger them all to death with some 90s linux distros | 11:34 |
| Eccentric81 | but since the time of fake intels fake itanium fake kernel proxying about sever 2000-2003 | 11:34 |
| Eccentric81 | your audio and computer have been pretending to computer | 11:35 |
| Eccentric81 | the VM stuff barriers and firewalls you from ever using a computer | 11:35 |
| Eccentric81 | zero hardware passthrough means ZERO SOUND RECORDING | 11:35 |
| Eccentric81 | especially no soundplayback.. as all images to display on screen | 11:35 |
| Eccentric81 | and all sound with a computer is a HQ rendering CG hollywood style | 11:35 |
| Eccentric81 | with pure maths | 11:36 |
| Eccentric81 | which sorta needs real hardware, since the 90s your game worlds could evolve and phyiscs | 11:36 |
| Eccentric81 | nowadays zencore you can all dimensions reality emulate (gravity and mass are 1 dual extremes of a single dimension) | 11:37 |
| Eccentric81 | nvidia scifi future plan is for 19 or 21max dimensions but i use a config file and any AMD type in 99999dimensions and infinitydimensions | 11:37 |
| Eccentric81 | long as you have zencore all the maths in the universe you're good to go with irrational pi | 11:37 |
| Eccentric81 | true optics | 11:37 |
| Eccentric81 | reality emulation as the eyeball sees at RNA DNA power of 3 render res | 11:38 |
| ananke | !ops Eccentric81 drivel | 11:38 |
| Eccentric81 | but samsung TV OS does up to titanium | 11:38 |
| Eccentric81 | different kernels have been crippled and ding donged to lag festivals | 11:38 |
| Eccentric81 | they pretend theres any other sort of kernel than a realtime one is dumb | 11:38 |
| Eccentric81 | my negative hardware latency infinitycached infinityfabric quantum super computer isnt being used at all | 11:39 |
| Eccentric81 | you guys havent even truly compiled correctly in the history of ever | 11:39 |
| Eccentric81 | i can prove it | 11:39 |
| Eccentric81 | your typical ./config and make isnt going to cut it | 11:39 |
| Eccentric81 | im not saying class A and D amplifiers arent differing in quality | 11:40 |
| Eccentric81 | im saying the gaps maybe smaller than most would believe | 11:40 |
| Eccentric81 | that sort of hardware yeah spend a few dollars | 11:40 |
| Eccentric81 | but you can cheaply series circuit amp up cheap chips in like a quad dac or whatever | 11:41 |
| Eccentric81 | to have very nice quality | 11:41 |
| Eccentric81 | all that overpriced shit is 90% obsolete | 11:41 |
| Eccentric81 | when the fake shit lagged computers so no recording was consistent microsoft made hardware that just has their WASAPI inside .. | 11:42 |
| Eccentric81 | called ASIO | 11:43 |
| Eccentric81 | and it was obsolete like a few months or years later | 11:43 |
| Eccentric81 | as USB C and HDMI are 0 latency.. its why they run a few meters then needs optical audio for HDMI | 11:43 |
| Eccentric81 | or the signal gets not 0 latency | 11:43 |
| Eccentric81 | so yes none of you have ever used a USB port ever because of not 0 latency kernels | 11:44 |
| Eccentric81 | and kernel proxys and fake computers and not maths | 11:44 |
| Eccentric81 | so go virtual machine and pretend to have a computer that can pretend to have linux all you want | 11:44 |
| Eccentric81 | i would rather buy real and run real software | 11:44 |
| Eccentric81 | but to do that i need to delete some proxys and bridges and shit first | 11:44 |
| Eccentric81 | so back to my original question | 11:44 |
| Eccentric81 | how can i search all files and delete all instances of proxy or bridge or httpd or things like remote or ssh etc | 11:45 |
| Eccentric81 | im fairly certain like using a pro recording studio, some places maybe have laws about datacenters and rackservers rackspaces for businesses | 11:53 |
| Eccentric81 | so they can protect and secure businesses and commerce | 11:53 |
| Eccentric81 | so when malware penis destroys freeware they shrug as businesses should buy business plans and business servers in datacenters | 11:54 |
| Eccentric81 | but when people could DIY at home easy enough theres no official guarantees | 11:54 |
| Eccentric81 | so now you all have no computers and no code no software and zero video games | 11:55 |
| Eccentric81 | one or two that come close would be fortnite maybe its kill cams and things seem to be a live video feed | 11:55 |
| Eccentric81 | for replays etc | 11:55 |
| Eccentric81 | maybe uses radeon relive and or amd link | 11:58 |
| Eccentric81 | https://youtu.be/M7Uk-93ZPpc?si=e65poL0yRS0yFIbb | 12:00 |
| Eccentric81 | did u guys select proaudio in sound and multimedia and set display to system scaling and no adaptive sync (no sync at all?) | 12:00 |
| Eccentric81 | then multimedia codecs like mp3/vorbis etc to CONSTANT and highest quality 320kbits or quality 10.0 instead of default 3.0 or 96 variable levels of not 96? | 12:01 |
| Eccentric81 | did it still sound not better than proper exclusive windows WASAPI with D3dvideorenderer11 ? | 12:01 |
| Eccentric81 | in say daum potplayer with the correct output/renderer settings? | 12:02 |
| Eccentric81 | dont use nvidia intel defaults of windows xp whatever wmvr7 | 12:02 |
| Eccentric81 | and their NOT DIRECTX9 no aperture function zero support for digital cameras | 12:03 |
| Eccentric81 | when a playstation 2 and other stuff and phones they ban here in australia or wont sell you | 12:03 |
| Eccentric81 | could use aperture maths and irrational pi true optics | 12:03 |
| Eccentric81 | dont use their cheap reshades faking rendering with rtx fake stuff that isnt truegodrays (raymarching) ray tracing isnt even raycasting quality and trillions of not marching | 12:04 |
| Eccentric81 | ps2 eyetoy mixed reality AR/VR stuff could 3d stuff in the camera and colormatch/correction light shafts functions and lightrays | 12:04 |
| Eccentric81 | ps3 had games that did better of this.. with its supercomputer 0 latency CPU but other hardware added lag 11000 networked together maybe took 30seconds round trip. intels CPU's took 11 minutes for 1mhz | 12:05 |
| Eccentric81 | so infinityfabric and zencore in ryzen meant you can run code faster than all computers in the universe equal but not better | 12:06 |
| Eccentric81 | since its negative hardware latency.. omniseconds and zeptoseconds whatever you want | 12:06 |
| Eccentric81 | throw it in there | 12:06 |
| Eccentric81 | negative rainbows additional to regular ones.. have at it | 12:06 |
| Eccentric81 | so when the illiterage retard gigafags pile absurd latency, put some minus signs on it omniseconds or bilateral seconds etc | 12:07 |
| Eccentric81 | sorry illiterate im .. seeming to be sick of typing about it | 12:08 |
| Eccentric81 | for better audio use vibrato portamento and tremolo in your config files.. maybe sonata and sonorous too! | 12:09 |
| Eccentric81 | you maybe need to be vulkan multimedia waveout rendering first.. be sure to curvature of circles and curvature of reality emulation | 12:10 |
| BluesKaj | Hi all | 12:49 |
| Eccentric81 | hmm seems linux uses wget same way windows powershell wget for apps/modules | 13:00 |
| Eccentric81 | how... are they any different? | 13:00 |
| Eccentric81 | can you wget windows apps? | 13:00 |

| madarastesco | hi | 14:45 |
| sam_wong | Hi, Can I run google-chrome on Ubuntu 16.04? I have been trying to install the chrome browser for a few days but unsuccessful. | 14:53 |
| tarzeau | sam_wong: why can you not upgrade your ubuntu? | 14:53 |
| === pushkarnk1 is now known as pushkarnk | ||
| sam_wong | tarzeau: I am afraid it would take several hours to upgrade | 14:54 |
| tarzeau | much easier than trying to get a binary only software to work imho | 14:56 |
| sam_wong | tarzeau: yes, I just don't know where and how to get those missing dependencies to fix the problems | 14:58 |
| leftyfb | tarzeau: ubuntu 16.04 is no longer supported | 14:59 |
| tarzeau | leftyfb: why do you tell me? | 15:00 |
| leftyfb | sorry, meant for sam_wong | 15:00 |
| sam_wong | leftyfb: most likely, I think | 15:00 |
| leftyfb | not most likely, it's no longer supported | 15:01 |
| sam_wong | leftyfb:thanks | 15:03 |
| leftyfb | sam_wong: I would highly recommend you install 24.04 from scratch. There's 8 years of improvements from what you're running there | 15:05 |
| sam_wong | leftyfb:Do you know how long it would take for such an upgrade? | 15:06 |
| arnahid | no | 15:06 |
| leftyfb | sam_wong: the install itself, maybe 30 minutes depending on your device | 15:07 |
| sam_wong | leftyfb:However, I will have to save a large amount of files to somewhere else and re-install all the apps afterwards | 15:09 |
| leftyfb | sam_wong: reinstalling apps is a single command | 15:10 |
| leftyfb | sam_wong: as for your file, if they aren't backed up already, they aren't important | 15:10 |
| sam_wong | leftyfb:yes, you have your points | 15:10 |

| gordonjcp | how do I stop Pulseaudio from using the wrong output? If I switch on a USB device that has an audio output, pulse will switch to it | 20:41 |
| === antonispgs6 is now known as antonispgs | ||
| enigma9o7 | ah, must be some behavior like it thinks you plugged in headphones and is being smart and switching to them. | 20:50 |
| enigma9o7 | so yeah good luck with that :) | 20:50 |
| gordonjcp | enigma9o7: yeah | 20:52 |
| gordonjcp | it's annoying because it basically makes sound unusable | 20:52 |
| Square | Hey. I'm on ubuntu 22.04. Is it possible to get Firefox to send native notifications somehow? | 21:18 |
| Square | ...tried googling a bit but all I find is that xdg-desktop-portal should do the trick, which I have installed. But no native notifications. | 21:19 |
| plasma_ | we load scananything not getting access to add our license to software plus we not able to add our machine name | 21:22 |
| plasma_ | error meassage after starting scananything not sure what this means14:17:20: Error: file '', line 1: '=' expected. | 21:25 |
| Square | My bad, seems native notifications actually work out of the box. But weirdly 3 notifications posted after I resumed my computer after suspend where not kept in the list/history | 21:31 |
| bprompt | Square: doesn't that have to do with the notifications daemon? as opposed to the app sending the notification | 21:35 |
| oerheks | on gnome > settings > applications > firefox > integration there is a switch | 21:35 |
| Square | Thanks guys. Yeah, testing now with two different notification tester websites it seems everything is working as it should. But the 3 notifications I got on resume are nowhere to be found. | 21:46 |
| Square | What notification daemon is ubuntu 22.04 using? My googling comes up short | 21:54 |
| bprompt | Square: hmmm not sure, depends on the desktop manager, I use LXQT so mine uses lxqt-notificationd, KDE uses a plasma notification daemon | 21:58 |
| bprompt | Square: that's where you can set how many, for how long, bells, no bells, exceptions and so on | 21:59 |
| Square | bprompt, I use Gnome | 22:00 |
| bprompt | Square: seems like is just called hmmmm dunno what's called, however seems is replaceable by a few alternatives | 22:03 |
| bprompt | Square: offhand I can see you instead use "notifyOSD" or "dunst" instead | 22:05 |
| JanC | the is notifications built into the Gnome Shell | 22:15 |
| JanC | there are some settings (including application-specific ones) in the Gnome Settings under Notifications | 22:16 |
