=== mint is now known as x0p [00:04] . === EriC^^ is now known as Guest7839 === EriC^^ is now known as Guest5657 [00:21] I am facing a weird error on Ubuntu. I copied 7 GB worth of files and the file copy operation was complete but when I ry to unmount i get a message saying Writing data to USB. Device should not be unplugged. What could be the reason. It has happened in the past then after seeing the file opration complete i disconnected the USB only to find that the file was corrupt. [00:22] the reason for what [00:23] rbox, Why would i get the message that file copy was complete when it is not. [00:23] The reason is that you need to unmount the device before removing it [00:24] It still copies cached data after the file operation is complete [00:24] So use unmount or click the eject button for the device in your file manager [01:16] Does anyone know if there is a guide to have my ttyS0 device function as a console port? [01:16] I ask because I am trying to use it as a "recovery" interface with ttyUSB0 on a raspberry Pi. [01:17] tomreyn I made that thing I was talking about, the menu system for organizing bash commands [01:17] so they can be selected and then edited at the bash prompt [02:29] ubuntu 22.04 flatpak where are the .desktop files at? i want to copy one to my desktop. i looked everywhere. [02:30] To narrow down the bug the open file window for all apps opens under the dock when the dock is enabled on all screens, when opened from a screen other than screen one [02:30] not flatpak sorry. snap [02:31] gaelheart, "locate firefox.desktop" [02:31] thanks it's visual studio code [02:32] it's telling me to install plocate [02:32] should i do that? [02:33] do you want to use locate? [02:33] rbox i suppose so. [02:33] then i geuss you shoudl install it [02:33] rbox thanks [02:34] actually I have locate without plocate, I think what I'm using is called locate.findutils [02:34] though idk the apt package [02:35] will this work? hmm [02:35] locate *code*.desktop [02:36] well you could try locate firefox.desktop and that would give you a clue where you might find others [02:36] causative: brilliant! [02:36] let me see [02:37] yeah it isn't showing vscode [02:37] oh duh. look at the path [02:37] sorry brain fart [02:39] locate *code*.desktop ought to work unless it's not named like code [02:39] Hi [02:42] causative: found it! i usually used add to desktop extension to do it but it isn't supported on jammy [02:42] causative: this is why they pay you the big bucks [02:43] god bless all of you. see you later :) === seanh__ is now known as seanh [05:10] so basically my system is broken [05:10] needs fresh install [05:13] causative: congrats on making that. maybe put it on a public code hosting repository if you think others could benefit from it. [05:16] spinningCat: i had not seen anything that looked like it was neccessarily beyond repair, but i would not challenge the take that a fresh install every couple of years can be a good idea. [05:18] this is my sources.list https://dpaste.com/B5PDYNVNU [05:20] this looks like its taken from a fresh installation [05:20] what about sources.list.d/? [05:21] sudo grep -hEv '^([ ]*#.*)?$' /etc/apt/sources.list{,.d/*.list} | nc termbin.com 9999 [05:23] https://termbin.com/xx3f [05:23] ^ this would not cover .sources files in deb822 format, but i think those are only used starting 24.04 [05:24] anything seems wrong here? [05:24] are those microsoft repositories with 20.04 in their url compatible to 22.04? [05:24] not sure about those actually [05:25] i didnt install anything related to microsoft explicitly [05:25] well, it didn't get there by itself ;) === matt000000054 is now known as matt00000005 [05:25] also verify 22.04 compatibility for the other repositories which don't say "jammy" or "22.04" [05:25] there may be added in installation progress :D [05:26] not during ubuntu's [05:26] what about removing repos without jammy keyword [05:26] and do aptitude update? [05:26] what about it? === kentucky444241 is now known as kentucky44424 [05:27] will it work? [05:27] that would disable those repositories, but not apply any changes to the packages already installed from there [05:27] or removing everything in sources.list.d? [05:27] sure, diabling repositories works [05:28] ah well [05:28] vscode is probably me's thinhg [05:28] but i insttalled vscode with snap [05:28] i wish there was a command to get list of programs with its vendors [05:29] i'd disable everything i don't know i need, then go over the remainder and see what of what's left is actually compatible with 22.04. then run apt update and apt-forktracer | grep -vF '[' (all packages which are not backed by an active apt repository configuration) and purge (after backup) all of these packages [05:31] apt-forktracer lists installed packages from third party repositories (if those repositories are still configured) [05:31] that's the info given in square brackets [05:33] once you're done with spring cleaning (southern hemisphere at least) you should follow this up with a sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade [05:49] tomreyn, seems fresh install takes less time === stagas_ is now known as stagas [08:16] hi, [08:16] i'm on ubuntu 24, my laptop fails to detect the monitor connected through adapter ( type c to hdmi) [08:16] (HP Pavilion 15) [08:16] what could be the error?? [08:20] does your laptop comes with a screen FN key combo, internal/external/both? [08:20] yes [08:20] or maybe it needs to be connected/on before boot [08:21] it is connected before boot, hdmi works fine, i wanted to connect another monitor through type c which fails to detect the monitor [08:22] xrandr shows only the monitor connected through hdmi and laptop internal display!! [08:22] oke, no clue then .. [08:27] tried displaylink drivers and also read to enable DP alt mode on the internet [08:27] how to check and enable DP alt mode over type C [08:38] displaylink is something unrelated [08:38] if it works when connected before boot, that's both a good sign and a bad sign [08:39] what sort of graphics does your laptop have (intel/nvidia/amd)? [08:39] I have an issue with my thinkpad not detecting the external monitor (connected via usb c/thunderbolt dock and a displayport cable I think?); usually unplugging and plugging the usb c cable fixes that [08:40] xrandr is a good tool when you're using the legacy Xorg session; for wayland it'd be better to look at something else (gnome-control-center?), as IIRC Xwayland's implementation of RANDR only shows a small subset, basically reflecting the current configuration only [08:41] it may be useful to run journalctl -f in a terminal when you plug in the cable and see if there are any interesting messages showing up at that time [09:11] no messages on journalctl -f when plugging in and disconnecting === JanC is now known as Guest4421 [09:49] hey === Dieu is now known as yuta === matt000000057 is now known as matt00000005 === rdz_ is now known as rdzh === rdzh is now known as rdz [12:52] Hi all [13:41] Hi BluesKaj [13:41] How are you liking ubuntu? [13:41] !chat | TooManyHats96 [13:41] TooManyHats96: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [13:49] hi,how display image.png runing in tmux command ? [13:49] xcl: can you be more specific? [13:49] Just a question can you 'chsh -s /usr/bin/fish' without running into trouble at bootime? [13:50] boot time shouldn't be using the user's shell; where you should expect trouble is during login time [13:51] xcl: like this? https://github.com/TheZoraiz/ascii-image-converter?tab=readme-ov-file#flags [13:52] GUI login is a complicated process; at one time I had issues because my ~/.profile would source my ~/.bashrc (because I only use bash), but Debian's .xsession would source ~/.profile using /bin/sh (aka /bin/dash), and any bashisms in my .bashrc would render my unable to log in [13:52] then things swung in another direction and wayland sessions stopped using the shell at all, leaving me without my custom $PATH, making GUI sessions unusable [13:53] now wayland sessions use the shell somehow and then I think do dbus magic to transfer the environment to gnome-session somehow [13:53] so, I wouldn't expect chsh -s /usr/bin/fish to break things (much), but if things did break, I wouldn't be too surprised [13:54] there are various tools that execute subcommands and assume the shell is more or less compatible with /bin/sh; I know that e.g. vim has a help topic for helping fish users cope [13:54] it might be safer to set up a terminal profile to run fish insead of your login shell [13:54] unless you also want fish for ssh logins [13:54] and tty logins [14:06] Thank you CosmicDj, ascii-image-converter so cool!,but i need display in tmux like kitty use icat ,true color ,not ascii, [14:20] Hi, how could I send notification with notify-osd and notify-send to all monitors? [14:21] Do you read me? xD [14:21] yes, but this is irc and people often take a few minutes to notice and answer [14:21] and people might not know the answer [14:21] we see you hiyosilver [14:22] or are trying to come up with a good way of expressing 'I fear what you want is not possible' [14:22] Ok, perfect, dont see lines and tought Im offline [14:25] I tried with export DISPLAY to :1 and :0 but always send notification to same screen monitor. [14:25] Using DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS=unix:path=/run/user/1000/bus before call the sript receive the notification but only in main monitor, not all. [14:25] I tried with gsettings but not exist schema for «com.canonical.notify-osd» [14:25] I tried to look for appearence, tweaks, etc....nothing about position and screens with libnotify. [14:25] Have to be a way to send to all monitors notify-send without using DISPLAY or dconf? [14:27] there isn't [14:27] not using notify-send [14:27] mama mia! xD something is working fine have to be changed :( [14:29] bad luck for me that at work could not use arch [14:30] arch is no different [14:30] it is :) [14:30] not in this case [14:30] beacuse with xfce and xmonad or i3 you can send to all screen [14:31] unity and wayland no [14:31] xfce4 has config for osd [14:32] That isn’t using notify-send [14:32] And xmonad, i3 and xfce4 are all available in Ubuntu [14:33] last time I tried to config xmonad with ubuntu crash system 2 times, for example installind dbusX11 [14:33] You can tell Ubuntu to use xorg over Wayland [14:33] So no, in this context, arch is no different [14:33] I learnt it after crash it [14:33] xD [14:34] what use ubuntu for notification? systemd? [14:37] Where is the documentation from ubuntu notifications? [14:38] https://developer.gnome.org/documentation/tutorials/notifications.html [14:38] ravage thanks mate!

Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa. [15:29] leftyfb: That's a very general statement. I'm asking if there are any plans or talk of fixing this specific vulnerability in the 22.04 repo. [15:30] FKAShinobi: https://ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2024-51774 [15:30] -ubottu:#ubuntu- qBittorrent before 5.0.1 proceeds with use of https URLs even after certificate validation errors.

I have their PPA installed but they only published it for 24.04 right now. [15:37] Using the latest LTS is usually a good idea [15:38] ravage: I hear you, but the attraction to the LTS is that it lasts for 5 years, not 2. [15:40] And with all due respect to the folks who make Ubuntu possible, getting an LTS too early can be a bit disruptive. [16:06] There is nothing wrong with 22.04, or even 20.04. They are both currently supported. [16:07] kk1234: neither the esm nor pro factoids are relevant, here. 22.04 is nowhere near being EOL. === barazen is now known as spx [16:10] FKAShinobi: Given that qbittorrent is in universe, it is community supported, which means updates aren't within Ubuntu's official purview. [16:11] The version that I'm seeing in the repo hasn't been updated since 2022. It may be worthwhile to get the binary straight from upstream rather than relying on the package. [16:11] At least, for 22.04. [17:02] connstruct: Thanks [17:22] I've a question. I've downloaded files. I wish they to be sorted in that order they were downloaded. But this isn't the case. It is sorted after when they "changed". But this is completly different. [17:23] Have i made myself understandable? :) [17:23] English isn't my native language. [17:23] sort by date [17:24] hoover on the 'name' colom, right click, creation date [17:26] Thanks, oerheks. It works!

[18:29] Perhaps it's been a while since it was updated or maintained. The latest release of that package was all the way back in 14.04. [18:30] i think it's a 'source' pkg [18:31] It had a release. I think the primary reason is that UML has been deprecated in favor of KVM. [18:33] yziquel__: maybe if you share your endgoal, the volunteers can help your project? [18:42] lotuspsychje: my end goal is trying to get pbuild in user mode linux running. [18:42] pbuilder [18:43] yziquel__: why in user mode linux? Why not KVM or LXD? [18:44] leftyfb: because KVM does not work in my VM. Incus is a hell to build from source. and because I want to run kernels with a debugger. [18:45] yziquel__: why doesn't KVM work on your VM? Also, why not just create another VM for your testing? Why a VM/container in another VM? [18:46] yziquel__: I don't know why KVM doesn't work. Everything seems fine. qemu just won't accept kvm accelaration wehn I run it. And i want really lightweight approaches to building packages, like pbuilder. in user mode linux. rootless. [18:47] check your bios is accelaration is enabled [18:47] *if [18:47] ravage i'm already in a vm... [18:47] yziquel__: why VM are you using? [18:48] sorry, WHICH, not why [18:48] https://ubuntu.com/server/docs/how-to-enable-nested-virtualization [18:48] it depends on the VM they're using [18:48] leftyfb: I'm using a workstation as the host, incus running in it, I work in an incus VM separated from the host, and I need to run QEMU+KVM inside that VM. [18:49] yziquel__: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/using-nested-virtualization-in-kvm/ [18:49] leftyfb: thank you. you're more helpful than the murdurously deadly silent incus lxd channel or the bigoted rust channel. thank you very much. [18:49] so yeah, ravage's link is the same thing [18:50] leftyfb: i was getting desperate: IRC has grown so unhelpful and hateful compared to the early 2000s.

[18:57] and i am not aware of any big protocol changes for IRC 🙂 [18:57] Djin: you'll have to seek support with Linux Mint from their IRC server and channel posted above [18:58] Noted , :) [19:02] ravage not protocol. agressivity. nonetheless: yes, nested virtualistaion is enabled according to these pages. which does not solve my uml+pbuilder setup. [19:03] there is no uml in Ubuntu [19:03] ravage: yes. why ? that was my initial question. I'm trying to build the debian package because of that. [19:04] no idea why. probably not used. deprecated [19:05] ravage hmmmhhh.... ok. [19:06] is there an easy way to do "apt source" and fetch debian not ubuntu packages, from ubuntu ? [19:06] you could add the debian repository to ubuntu, but that's begging for trouble and not supported here [19:06] start a debian container [19:06] ^ [19:07] ravage: just tehe point. maybe i'm old, but i do not like the container way. [19:07] then install a VM if you want to make it more complex [19:08] ravage: no. i want simpler. environment variables, APT:: hackish stuff. Anyway. thank you nonetheless.

[19:15] yziquel__: what's wrong with containers? I use them for everything [19:17] leftyfb: i've been unfrozen from ice since 2011. computing has changed quite a bit. I'm not comfortable with them. And I like to have (s)chroots to build packages like i did back in the old days. Spinning up a container, which tends to pollute a global namespace like it does with incus, is not quite my cup of tea, if i can avoid it. [19:21] leftyfb moreover containers do not share the same filesystem that easily, and virtiofs has proved a pain, with the missing DAX window not allowing some memory mapping. and when i fix these issues, people start behaving very annoyingly if not despicably, as it happened in #rust. so i'll stick to ebvironment variables instead of going into a whirlwind of complexity that i feel is unwarranted. [19:38] is there something like "systemctl kill" that actually kills the process? [19:40] wodim: kill -9 ${PID} [19:41] leftyfb: badumtsss [19:43] I was looking for a parameter to systemctl kill, or perhaps another verb [19:43] I have no idea why they called the verb "kill" when it does not send a kill signal [19:43] Hi again, is there an ubuntu disto that has working Wayland? [19:44] Djin: try Ubuntu 24.04 [19:44] it is called Ubuntu [19:45] or pkill [19:48] boom [19:48] I'm getting frequently random UI freezes. Ubuntu 20.04 | TigerLake-LP GT2 [Iris Xe Graphics] | SYSRQ commands work when freeze, sound continues, but changing to other 'session' with CTRL+ALT+F2 does not work. Logs contain no clues. There is enough memory free when the freeze happens. Where to start? [19:48] idk [19:48] leftyfb Is Wayland the defaut in Ubuntu 24.04 or just experimental ? Also does it has LUKS? [19:48] ronnie: I would suggest trying 24.04 or 22.04 [19:49] Djin: wayland is default in ubuntu and it does support LUKS [19:49] adhkabdukwiba [19:49] oh wait, that was a typo.

Did you read the bug comment 45 I linked, where that part of the work was already done?

It's marked as Incomplete right now though, which makes me concerned it's not going to be in anyones' dashboard [22:31] that's part of why I'm trying to push for action [22:31] JayF: contact whoever marked it as incomplete and work with them to gather the info they need [22:32] leftyfb: ack; I will then. Didn't know if it was considered polite to contact maintainers directly out of band :) (for my project, for instance, I'd want someone to go to IRC or the list not to my personal inbox :D) [22:32] JayF: you are unlikely to find maintainers here [22:52] if my laptop sound card does not work with Ubuntu, will an "external sound card" like this https://www.bestbuy.com/site/creative-sound-blasterx-external-sound-card/6470382.p?skuId=6470382 work?

[23:01] 7.1 "surround" sound [23:01] it says linux. so it will probably output sound [23:02] just dont expect anything for under 3 dollars [23:03] not sure I would be able to tell the difference between 7.1 or whatever, I just want something that successfully outputs sound [23:04] without depending on an existing card [23:04] 3 dollars probably won't ruin you. buy it. test it === seanh1 is now known as seanh [23:06] could be a waste of time though, it says it's a "sound card adapter" not sure that means it actually contains a sound card [23:09] i can't print you a certificate for it [23:09] risk it or don't
