hiyosilverHi, morning, yesterday I configured 2 crontab task properly and appear every time logging on /var/loig/syslog but, after turn off laptop, today after turn on it, no task is running since yesterday, any reason?10:05
hiyosilverCron is running, path and env is ok, don't know why tasks is not be executed by cron.10:05
hiyosilvermama mia! question was easy :) will solve by myself, here late a lot10:12
hiyosilverIf you are offline, why u stay connected to irc? xD10:17
glacierI just noticed a bug but not sure if it's a skill issue since I'm new to Linux. I'm on Ubuntu using nano for a text editor where I have some links. If I Ctrl+Click to follow the links, the one that appears in Firefox is cut off where the terminal window cuts off. But if I expand the window to include more of the link, it will work properly. Is this a bug or by design?10:26
glacieralso hiyosilver, I know nothing about crontab otherwise I would try to help sorry10:28
zaggynlI guess that's because of word wrap glacier10:29
saegiorno10:31
frostschutzglacier, basically the link clicking is provided by the terminal, not related to nano. but if nano does not display the whole link, then it wont work. so I guess it's by design10:31
glacierThat would make sense. What do the shortcuts M-S and things like that mean in the manual?10:35
glacierBecause one of those supposedly toggles line wrapping.10:36
glacierM-S means short wrapping10:36
glaciersoft wrapping*10:36
glacierokay apparently the M meant Esc on my keyboard, good to know, I have line wrapping now (smile)10:40
glacierit's still cutting off links when they wrap though10:40
frostschutzglacier, if your terminal allows adjusting the font size on the fly. set it to a small size so the link fits. can also be done with zoom/scaling feature of your WM/DE if you set 0.5 as the scale factor. otherwise just cat the file in the terminal w/o involving nano, that should keep the links whole without any newlines inserted10:42
frostschutzor open it up in a graphical editor that does the link highlighting by itself10:43
glacierI just ended up loading it in LibreOffice so all good10:47

ElliriaHey there. Are there any formiko users in here?16:33
lotuspsychjeElliria: the volunteers will usualy focus on ubuntu issues mostly, whats your issue exactly?16:36
ElliriaFormiko is a package in the Ubuntu repository and I use it to view Markdown files. If I click a link in my Markdown document, it opens in the right pane of Formiko instead of my browser. That's fine, but I can't figure out how to close the opened page and go back to previewing the rendered document in Markdown, which is what the right pane usually does.16:37
ElliriaThere are two panes. The left pane has the raw Markdown code in an editor that you can use to change the document and the right pane has the rendered Markdown document to show you what it will look like. That's the state I'm trying to restore and haven't figured out.16:38
mgedminsounds interesting16:41
* mgedmin goes to install16:41
mgedminfirst impression is not great: I open formiko README.md and it thinks this is ReStructuredText16:42
ElliriaWell, I've figured out a hack. If you click a link, it opens in the right pane and there's no obvious way to close the page that opened and go back to the rendered document. If you then make any kind of a change in the left pane (like adding a space), the page closes and the rendered page is restored to the right pane.16:43
mgedminhmm, for me links open in my real browser16:43
ElliriaI opened an .md file with it.16:43
ElliriaInteresting. I wonder why it's different for me.16:44
mgedminthe CSS used for the markdown preview is very not-great16:45
mgedmingrey background for code blocks with zero padding16:45
mgedminthe synchronized scrolling is pretty impressive16:45
ElliriaYeah. None of them are. It's also picky about your syntax. Where other viewers don't care about blank lines between objects, it does, for instance.16:45
ElliriaYeah, I like that.16:45
ElliriaThere are very few Markdown previewing programs for us to choose from, so for me, this is worth having even if it's a bit awkward.16:46
ElliriaThe rendering is also instant when you make a change on the left.16:46
mgedminI've used livedown in the browser while editing in vim, but livedown is pretty buggy (stops autoreloading after a while, sometimes truncates the output)16:47
mgedminbtw I'm on ubuntu 24.1016:47
mgedminit's possible that I'm using a different version of formiko16:47
mgedmin1.4.3-2.116:47
ElliriaIf you like vim, did you notice the Formiko Vim shortcut that got put into your menu in addition to the Formiko shortcut? I don't use vim, but you might like to try that.16:47
ElliriaAh. Mine is: 1.3.0-216:48
mgedminI didn't, but I did notice formiko-vim in the list of files installed by the package16:48
ElliriaAnd I'm on Kubuntu 22.04 LTS.16:48
mgedminso, it's possible that opening links inside the embedded webkit browser widget was a bug that got fixed in a newer version16:49
ElliriaYep. The formiko-vim command should run it.16:49
mgedminformiko is a Python app, it might be installable via pipx or something16:49
ElliriaI'll be updating to 24.04 at some point.16:49
* mgedmin tries to uv tool install formiko and discovers that it didn't declare a dependency on python-gobject, so it doesn't work16:50
ElliriaHeh.16:51
ElliriaWhat is a uv tool install?16:51
mgedminuv is a new python development tool ("cargo for python") that I've been trying out lately16:52

webchat83Is there anyone in here who can help me with an Ubuntu 24.04 boot issue? I have a Dell and ubuntu won't boot, it fails on Nvidia driver loading, I get a cursor that goes away then I see a mouse icon and the touchpad doesn't work. 6.8.0-47 kernel works and it uses wayland, but 6.8.0-48 doesn't not. Not sure where to go from here.17:31

webchat83Or is it generic?17:34

tomreynhmm, apparently both exists18:00
tomreynthat or the linux pci device description has been updated over time18:01
webchat83Yes, tried 535 as well and same symptoms. I am trying to find out but google is letting me down. Interesting tried autoinstall for nvidia which it appears to have installed 550 again but now I am back to a black screen with a mouse cursor18:04

webchat83Do I just try installing all the drivers?18:21
oerheksmaybe the driver ppa is any help https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa?field.series_filter=noble it gives a newer 550 or 560 for your card18:24
