NeilRGwhat is this line in my fstab? /swap.imgnoneswapsw0002:22
NeilRGdo I need it02:22
NeilRGmount point is none, which is weird02:23
toddc1NeilRG: normal swap is a option if not used it uses a swap page so not needed just a option02:26
karenwNeilRG: It is not strictly needed, no. But it allows disk space to be used as memory, which is generally better than programs being killed by the OMM killer.02:27

darwindoes OpenCL from AMD (amdgpu) for Ubuntu still work with Radeon RX Vega 64 or that's now 'too old'?03:59
chitoHello I am on 23.10, quite out of date and cannot seem to do a release upgrade due to repos no longer existing for my release. Is there an easy method to just upgrading to an LTS?04:04
Bashing-om!eol | chito Not real hard -04:09
ubottuchito Not real hard -: 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/EOLUpgrades04:09
oerheksdarwin it should work04:10
darwinthanks04:10

pragmaticenigmahowdy04:22
chitointerestingly the eol page is down04:23
chitoDoes it make sense to just swap my sources list?04:23
Bashing-omchito: Let me scare you up an example to reset sources,04:24
oerhekschito, that is the debian way, does not work for ubuntu04:24
chitoOK but the ubuntu way doesn't work because I waited too long04:26
chitoso what are you supposed to do in that case04:26
=== Maglcite is now known as mag
pragmaticenigmachito, there is a way, the eol page normally provided has the steps on it. if the page is down, you may need to wait a bit for it to come up, or for a volunteer here to help put together the instructions04:28
chitoI see. Thank's friend04:29
Bashing-omchito: Run in terminal ' sudo sed -i -e 's/archive.ubuntu.com/old-releases.ubuntu.com/g' /etc/apt/sources.list ' // Then run ' sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade && sudo apt dist-upgrade ' - Such as like : https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2346438 . // Beware in 24.04 apt changes the sources.list format.04:32
chitoIDK it's not working04:53
Bashing-omchito: "it's not working" does not tell us much . As a place to start to understand - pastebin the present sources.list file.05:00

ivaatmoohi. could someone give example of autoinstaller to add to ubiquity to be preset other language as select?13:20

ogra_ivaatmoo, only for rather old releases ... ubiquity is dead and gone in recent ones13:32
ogra_ivaatmoo, https://canonical-subiquity.readthedocs-hosted.com/en/latest/intro-to-autoinstall.html13:35
ivaatmooogra_, ubuntu 24.04 seems like ubiquity is there or not?13:36
ogra_nope, that uses a subiquity based installed13:36
ogra_*installer13:36
ivaatmoooh13:37
ivaatmooand how one would set in subiquity to be default language something else?13:38
ivaatmooso user has choise already in his language13:39
ogra_see the link i posted above it has all the autoinstall docs13:39
ivaatmoothis seems to be automatic install. i still need logic where user interacts with installer but just with default language not english13:41
ivaatmoothere is scroll list for language but exactly this screen would be need in other language13:41
ravageYou just have to find your language in the list13:42
ravageIt's even in the users local language13:42
ravageI think everyone should be able to handle that13:42
ivaatmoobut this screen is in english13:43
ogra_ivaatmoo, does thios help ? https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/oem-config-in-24-04/47803/313:43
ravageThat's really a chicken and egg problem13:43
ivaatmooogra_ if i have locale already set (by not autoinstaller) then subiquity should pick it up as well?13:47
ravageSet where?13:48

ivaatmooand "linux /casper/vmlinuz autoinstall ds=nocloud\;s=/cdrom/nocloud/ boot=casper only-ubiquity splash ---" means that file is looked from dir /nocloud ?16:59

leftyfbCrtxReavr: please seek support from Zorin, or install Ubuntu17:13
pragmaticenigmaCrtxReavr: It doesn't matter, when a distribution forks away from another, it is to make significant changes to the way the OS operates. It was based, mean a snapshop was taken of the current development state at that time. From there on forward they are no longer the same as design decisions diverge from that point.17:13

ivaatmoook this is not working. subiqitui still in english17:51
ivaatmoobefore X env i have this https://paste24.net/raw/boov3b17:57

nomikeI'm running Ubuntu 14.10 on a Lenovo ThinkPad T14 Gen 1 AMD. Since ever (which is 2-3 years) I'm having an issue with the fingerprint reader. It works, I can us it to log in, authorize sudo, unlock the screen, but every now and then, it stops working. The lock-screen no longer displays the note about being able to unlock with my fingerprint. After a reboot, things work again.21:07
nomikeDoes this sound familiar to anyone?21:09

nomikeAh..yes. 24.10 of course. It was a typo.21:44
tomreynthere's general criticism on using biometrics for authentication. also, most fingerprint scanners installed on computer hardware have a very low resolution and are easily fooled (this is, partially, changing). the driver situation hasn't been great (possibly as a result of this).21:47

sybaritenSo, i have a ubuntu v20-running laptop here. Well it's in another room, I always do SSH. I'm not saying I'm lazy, but.... is thee a remote desktop solution that i could just install and fire up on a stock ubuntu, I mean, without physically interacting with the machine at the same time?22:00
sybaritenBasically, do i need to do stuff _at_ that machine, or can i just install something over ssh and get the desktop of that machine, on my Windows machine perhaps22:01
tomreyni would expect you to have to walk *this one time*. it may be possible without. i think there are CLI commands to enable gnome's remote desktop sharing.22:02
cbreakyou can probably do most things via SSH, maybe you might want to try X11 forwarding, if you want to use GUI programs. Might not always work.22:03

bpromptsybariten: tightVNC :)22:22
