webchat76Hi, my Nautilus/File file manager does not provide the functionality to set Execution permission to files (for non sudoer users). The same functionality is possible using Thunar (for the same user).06:47
webchat76I'think something has changed as it seems to me that this was possible some months ago.06:47
webchat76My OS is Ubuntu Desktop 24.04.06:47
webchat76Thank you in advance for your support/reccomendations.06:47

joeehi how to update gdb ;sudo apt update gdb?08:03
=== JanC is now known as Guest4264
joeeno easy update for gdb ?08:21
geirhaif there is a newer version of gdb available, then   sudo apt install gdb   will upgrade just that package, and   sudo apt upgrade   will upgrade all packages that have newer packages available08:22
joeehow strange most recent relase of gdb is 16.3 but i have 12.1 wich reports apt install gdb is the newest version ... (:08:28
geirhayes, that means 12.1 was the version of gdb that was included when the ubuntu release entered package freeze stage08:29
geirhathe only updates you get to a package is bugfixes for that version. You won't get newer versions with newer features.08:30
geirhauntil you upgrade to a newer ubuntu release, that is08:30

isf369Did Ubuntu devs accidentally strip symbols from libSDL3? (libsdl3-0/plucky)12:45
isf369https://paste.centos.org/view/raw/2d257b86 https://paste.centos.org/view/raw/cacf514412:45
ograisf369, surely not given it gets synced directly from debian and not touched in Ubuntu (as the version number tells you)13:07
mgedminisf369: what if you reorder the command-line arguments?13:11
mgedmini.e. g++ sdl-screensaver-desert-scene.cpp $(pkg-config --libs sdl3)13:11
mgedminhttps://stackoverflow.com/a/409470/11015113:12
isf369oh gosh, mgedmin, that worked13:21
isf369i don't remember that being the case, maybe gcc changed13:21

Guest3460i need to access vnc in ubuntu running on raspberry, is it possible ?13:56
poeshmmm13:57
Guest3460if anybody tied it than please let me know13:57
leftyfbGuest3460: why wouldn't it be?13:57
poeswhat are you talking about?13:58
Guest3460i have installed tightvncserver and when i run it its connecting and showing only blank screen13:58
leftyfbpoes: can we help you with something This is an Ubuntu support channel13:58
leftyfbGuest3460: that's because most VNC servers are configures to start a fresh X server to connect to. Not your existing session13:59
Guest3460leftyfb, than how to get existing session13:59
leftyfbGuest3460: I would recommend try x11vnc. There's lots of tutorials online on how to set it up14:00
Guest3460what to write in xstartup file ?14:00
leftyfbyou don't14:00
leftyfbplease follow one of the many x11vnc tutorials available on google14:00

atreoI am on a linux and trying to figure out what is the best medium for long-term archival cold storage of my data (in-house not cloud service). if this is not16:52
atreothe best channel for this topic, can someone reccomend a better channel?16:52
leftyfbatreo: what release of ubuntu?16:55
xanguaatreo: hard drive16:55
leftyfbatreo: if you're just looking for general linux suggestions, try #linux16:55
atreoleftyfb: 24.0416:55
leftyfbatreo: hard drives16:55
atreoleftyfb: well more like computer industry siggestions and insight16:56
atreoHDD tend to break, for example in the latest ubuntu release if i copy more than 200,000 files the HDD fails and the OS freezes. also after 15 years some data n some HDDs got corurpted16:57
leftyfbyeah, that's not really how things work16:57
atreoat the moment i am copying 10TB of data that accumilated on 15 HDD starting from 199916:57
atreoalthough i can fit them on 4 HDD  each 5TB   (copy A and copy B)16:57
leftyfbhard drives, when stored properly don't just corrupt data on their own16:57
leftyfband there's no limit of 200k files. You have other issues there16:58
atreook, but back in the 2000s i stored most of my data on DVDs and blue ray optical discs, which is the only data that didn't get corrupted16:59
leftyfbatreo: optical storage degrades. Hard drives do not17:00
atreoleftyfb: over the past 15 years, i have had 4 HDD explode on me while performing the backup process, last time was dec 2023,    power surge or something, but it burned and lost all the data in it (thankfully i always keep 2 copies of my data)17:01
leftyfbatreo: regardless, feel free to discuss anecdotes in #ubuntu-offtopic or #linux17:01
leftyfbatreo: I'll leave you with this: https://www.backblaze.com/blog/the-3-2-1-backup-strategy/17:02
atreosure, but i feel HDD are a good option (my current option) but not a backup and forget it, right? is there something better?17:02
atreoleftyfb: ok let me read it17:02
leftyfbthere's no such thing as "backup and forget it"17:02
leftyfbif you aren't periodically testing the restore process, consider your backups unreliable regardless of medium17:02

nemo76goodevening19:03
nemo76can i use whats mentioned here on ubuntu and firefox snap19:03
nemo76https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Firefox/Tweaks#Performance19:03
bpromptnemo76: hmmm those options or enhancements are provided by the Firefox app, OS-agnostic19:08
nemo76Well reason i ask is because i saw this video of this major youtuber who madea video about linux and in it he mentions he sped up firefox from 2 seconds to basicly instantly i was wondering if i can add some of it to my own system to even if only slightly increase the boot speed19:10
nemo76of firefox19:10
nemo76so i understand this correctly that means no?19:11
bpromptnemo76: how fast is your cpu?  how much ram?  what old is your model?19:11
bpromptnemo76: app speedups can be done by several factors, cache, buffering, doesn't mean the system became faster of the app became lighter19:12
tomreyn1.4 and 1.7 might not work due to snap confinement, the other options listed there should work out/apply.19:12
tomreynonly 1.6 should impact application startup19:13
tomreyn(in a notable way, not taking 1.4 and 1.7 into account)19:14
tomreynmost of the time what slows down firefox are add-ons19:15
nemo76bprompt i have a old hp elitebook 6930p Intel® Core™2 Duo P8700  × 2 Intel® Mobile GM45 Express Chipset 4.0 GiB running ubuntu 25.04 with kernel 6.1419:16
bprompthmmm a core2 duo with latest OS, ok :S19:16
tomreynoof, yeah, that's old.19:16
bpromptnemo76: nevermind firefox, any app would run slow per se  =)19:16
nemo76I just got greedy though because the update from april 25th did something which sped my all my snaps by like almost 1 seconds19:16
nemo76firefox snap (one second opening )now matches flatpak firefox19:17
nemo76I have about 7 addons not much it hink19:18
=== JanC is now known as Guest4505
nemo76I also was thinking about repasting (is that what is called ) the cpu? i dont know if that is even possible on my laptop and if i am capable of it seeing as i am kind of an idiot19:20
nemo76also thinking about overclocking the cpu again dont know if that is doable for an idiot like myself19:20
bpromptnemo76: hmmm if you're using Hexchat, it has a section in under Window > Send System Info, which provides all specs19:22
nemo76i dont know what hexchat is?19:23
nemo76oke i looked it up but i think i am using webchat? libera.chat?19:25
bpromptnemo76: well, a core2 duo, will be a machine from 2005 or so, with a new OS it'd be laggy either way19:26
bpromptnemo76: you can speed it up with an SSD, but you'd be limited to SATA1 speeds though, not to mention your cpu fans will be going off quite a bit19:26
=== rvalue- is now known as rvalue
ravagethe real problem is your RAM here19:28
nemo76actually it is from 2008 its 64bit architecture and i already have a ssd installed i figured if i do that repaste thing it would bring back some power and run cooler which would compensate maybe the overclocking ?19:29
bpromptlow on ram, and likely is slow ram DDR219:29
nemo76why is my ram a problem? i have more then inn off for my use case19:30
nemo76oh i see yes it is ddr219:30
ravagealso from a efficiency perspective it is a much better room heater that an computer in 202519:31
nemo76So what are you guys saying i shouldnt overclock and repaste cpu ? if its even possible?19:35
nemo76for ym computer19:35
bpromptnemo76: no, OC'ing is fine, but we're still looking at a slow cpu with a slow bus and slow peripherals, so Firefox taking that long is expectable, is not extraneous19:36
bpromptnemo76: keep in mind that my machine is just 2 years old, and some websites with cheesy ads, run my quad-cpu to 100%19:38
nemo76I understand i just want get everything out it you know and in the proces experience this stuf19:39
nemo76so how can i find out if i can overclock and repaste my laptop i cant find anything forexample about repasting only about cpu replacement?19:42

bpromptadmini: hmmm I don't use LUKS, however my basic install was around 12Gbs though19:56
adminiyeah its wierd19:57
adminiIt shows... 177.9 GB / 198.9GB available /  (new install)19:57
adminiis 177 the encrypted home dir?19:59
bpromptadmini: I'm guessing here, it may just be reporting 177.9Gbs of allocation to LUKS, including empty space from a physical 198.9Gbs20:03
