[05:23] looked on forums, modified files to and fro with no success, only thing i can figure is that wireplumber is still v0.4, and i cant seem to decipher how to manually install 0.5, or if that's even necessary on ubuntu [05:24] currently stumped [05:26] !info wireplumber noble [05:26] wireplumber (0.4.17-1ubuntu4, noble): modular session / policy manager for PipeWire. In component main, is optional. Built by wireplumber. Size 78 kB / 572 kB. (Only available for linux-any.)

[05:37] Hi all! o/ according to GNU Screen online documentation, the actual behavior of the BEL signal is defined in Termcap, it says? [05:38] so my q is: what is termcap? is it a file? [05:38] also, how can i view/change its contents? [05:38] thx [05:40] it's a file that describes the features/capabilities of all the common (virtual) terminals [05:40] ah, ok. [05:40] well, a library really [05:41] so GNU Screen actualy uses this? or does GNU Screen use terminfo instead? or something even newer than terminfo? [05:41] the file/database with the features is called terminfo [05:41] i have heard that termcap is "legacy". is it deprecated and replaced entirely by terminfo nowadays? [05:42] I think screen uses termcap to use terminfo [05:42] ah.... so to borrow some apt-get jargon: terminfo "provides" termcap? [05:43] like old legacy programs see terminfo, and think to themselves "ah, THERE is that termcap I was looking for." [05:43] ? [05:43] if so, got it. [05:44] i want to be able to redefine the behavior of my system, when a BEL signal is triggered. [05:44] also, I wanna see what else Termcap and Terminfo can do. what else I can customize about them. [05:44] it's probably better to look at the terminal emulator for that? [05:45] im at the tty [05:45] so i guess the terminal emu in my case would be the kernel itself? [05:49] oh wait... all the user-editable (or system admin-editable) stuff is in an Environmental Variable? is that how it works? [05:55] oh wait by terminal emu you mean screen i guess [06:03] [06:55] Hello, hello, I have reinstall Ubuntu LTS to a newer version . There are some settings which I would like to remain though .

I can't find anything online that seems to work. I am running 24.04. can someone help? [18:50] whats output of lsusb [18:51] oh, is there a command I can use to paste a ghist or something so I don't blow up the channel with result? [18:52] see topic [18:53] I see. thx [18:53] https://bpa.st/E7BA [18:54] I duno what lines 5,6,9,10 are, but I don't see your cams, sounds like you're trying two, a built in one and a usb one? [18:54] by the way, almost every "built in" webcam i've ever seen is really just another usb device [18:54] correct. idk what those line are either [18:55] interesting [18:55] in theory you should see two on that list (your built-in and your usb one) [18:55] does the external one seem to be getting power? [18:55] no it does not. [18:56] try a mouse or some other known working device [18:56] try it in the same usb port as you're trying the cam [18:57] so when I do v4l2-ctl --list-devices [18:57] I get Cannot open device /dev/video0, exiting. [18:57] ok [18:57] figure out the usb issue first, the /dev/videoX won't show up until you can at least see it on the usb list [19:00] nice, so uh, yea, I tried the mouse in same usb port. no dice. switched back, moved usb camera to different usb port now it works! however laptop one does not [19:01] possibly a driver issue related to your usb ports, one of them isn't coming up or a built in hub not working [19:01] I'm using a hub and the usb port that was not working was "red" the others "blue" I think that's supposed to mean it charges [19:02] have you tried rebooting the machine? [19:02] yes, a couple times. [19:02] yeah, red usually means extra power for charging or in come cases still has power when device is off, shouldn't affect connectivity [19:03] iffraff, on what laptop exactly? maybe it gives a FN+ webcam key? [19:03] I actually need the built in one cuz the usb cam does not give a great head shot and I need to do job interviews. [19:03] something that may give hints, at least with external cam, with cam disconnected, reboot, while watching dmesg see if anything shows when you plug it back in [19:03] sorry, i just joined this channel so i'm missing context, but have you tried checking lsusb? [19:03] oerheks: it's a hp spectre. I looked for soemthing that looked like a fn+ webcam key but did not see any [19:04] iffraff: plug the camera directly into the computer. if it still doesn't show up, the camera maybe defective, try it in another computer. if it works, then it's your hub, and it is likely drawing too much power and causing a brown out [19:05] So pppingme helped me get the external camera working. Now I just need to get the builtin laptop camera working [19:05] @yegorc lsusb does not show the internal camera [19:05] do what I said with the external and that may give some hints about overall USB issues and a hint to fix [19:05] https://bpa.st/E7BA [19:05] but def sounds like a usb issue, not a cam issue [19:06] iffraff: the internal camera may not be connected internally via USB. It may be disabled in the system bios or something [19:06] pragmaticenigma: he seems to have some "dead" usb ports possibly [19:06] pppingme: I'll do that now. re bios, the camera "used" to work. I installed 24.04 a while back. I haven't tried the internal camera till now. [19:07] switch on the side? https://www.cnet.com/tech/computing/hps-new-spectre-laptops-have-a-webcam-kill-switch-to-protect-you-from-creeps/ [19:07] iffraff: if you have a working camera, I'd stop trying to get another one working with this important meeting you have coming up. [19:07] https://www.cnet.com/a/img/resize/4fdc3f26030baa7c3a12511df5adcb58c16fba1d/hub/2018/10/23/c415dbe5-b617-4c89-afc3-7893ae93be1f/hp-spectre-x360-13-poseidonblue-hero-privacycamenabled.png?auto=webp&width=1200 [19:07] but that shouldn't affect an external cam?? he seemed to get it working on one usb port but not another [19:08] ' internal camera' [19:09] wait, so which camera works? [19:10] if I understood right, external cam works on one usb port but not another.. iffraff am I hearing that correctly? [19:10] internal cam doesn't work at all [19:11] internal cameras are usually usb devices. if it doesn't show up, it's not a driver issue [19:11] Dang! There was a tiny ass little switch on the side. I turned it ... the other way and it did not help. I switched it back and now the laptop camera works!. how odd. So now both cameras work. Thank you all for the great help. [19:11] have fun! [19:11] * you were not the 1st one with this issue [19:12] i use a black sticker [19:12] this is why lenovos physical shutters are better, can't go wrong there [19:12] That is a super inconspicuous switch. what a pain. [19:12] yea, I would think a physical block would be best. [19:12] Thanks again!
