[11:15] polo: PulseEffects is one you can consider. [11:16] polo: https://flathub.org/apps/com.github.wwmm.pulseeffects [11:21] i installed it with flatpak but it doesnt show on gnome overview ? [11:49] :) [11:53] Hi all [12:06] Running apt install, I'm stuck on "Waiting for automatic snapd restart..." [12:06] what do? [12:07] fresh install [12:14] nvm, I had to manually stop snapd.socket (!) and reload unit-config or sth [13:40] My pgp key alread disapeared twice from https://keyserver.ubuntu.com/ How can this happen and who can I contact for this? [13:53] Is there a way to turn off a screen in a multi monitor setup when it's not in use? Say you have a primary display and a secondary display. When that secondary display isn't being used, it would turn off as if the machine was asleep. This would never apply to the primary display. [13:54] maxtim: define "isn't being used" [13:55] power it off or unplug it from HDMI/VGA. Other than that, maybe look into if your monitor supports ddcutil and if it's got a way to "sleep" said monitor. Though, if the monitor is still plugged into your machine, moving your mouse into it's space is more than likely going to wake it up [13:56] leftyfb: There's no applications on it. Say you have a terminal open in primary and a web browser on secondary. You close the term, move the browser to primary and watch a movie. In this case, the secondary would timeout after [n] seconds. [13:56] maxtim: the work involved in creating a script that does all that for you might not be worth it [13:57] it was an idea. since most of my ideas are usually already available, I thought I'd ask [13:57] screensaver to the rescue :p [13:58] not for just 1 monitor [14:32] hello [14:36] hi [14:36] hello [14:37] what is this chat? [14:38] im wondering the same [14:38] tsurugi: testirc1232: did you see a topic when you joined? [14:38] what operating system are you on? [14:39] testirc1232: this is an ubuntu support channel. What can we help you with? [14:39] i dont have ubuntu [14:40] i have tsurugi [14:40] tsurugi: trolling is offtopic here. Please find another channel [14:41] why??? i didn t troll === JanC is now known as Guest2926 [15:16] fff [15:16] hello [15:16] @AT [15:16] welcome prasanna-shresth [15:16] are you a bot or human? [15:17] prasanna-shresth: what can we help you with? === pusher is now known as keypusher [16:10] sarnold: I got a clean copy of libsox2 from Launchpad and installed it, deleting the broken file before installing it, and that did the job. Thanks! The new version of Firefox installed successfully after that and the bug it was having is now partly fixed - not entirely, but enough that the website works - and so are a few others as a bonus. === pusher is now known as keypusher [17:33] Is there no way in the 25.04 installer for a user to create their own encrypted partitions? If I want encryption, the only choice seems to be full disk LUKS encryption. And when I select that I get 8GB of swap on a laptop with 32GB physical RAM. So ... no hibernation for Ubuntu users that want encryption. [18:39] mneptok: the server installer can provide more customized installations. (there's also debootstrap.) [18:39] tomreyn: dd is doing its job with the -server iso now :) [18:40] tomreyn: I think I might live 5 minutes into your future. [18:41] i think suspend-to-*disk* conflicts with some common setup scenarios (including, if i remember correctly, "uefi secureboot") [18:43] tomreyn: Debian is always my go-to. Sadly, Trixie has issues with my new Meteor Lake lappy. But being a Debian person, secureboot is not really a feature I can use. Most OEMs blacklist it. [18:44] how come Remmina in 25.04 can't connect to my gnome-remote-desktop on 22.04 over RDP? Remmina from 24.10 worked fine, aRDP Free works fine from an Android phone [18:50] Connections works, yay [18:56] i think remmina uses freerdp as a 'backend'. you can try experimenting with freerdp directly (and, as a direct result, make your life miserable) === JanC is now known as Guest1642 === JanC is now known as Guest4959 [19:59] I'm having trouble with cmake and cppunit. The cmake find module for cppunit seems to be missing. It's not part of libcppunit-dev or libcppunit. Where is it? === JanC is now known as Guest8783 [20:19] pac1: just use find_package which will use the pkg-config (*.pc) file, see https://conan.io/center/recipes/cppunit [20:34] find_package doesn't find it. [20:42] I'm trying to use Ubuntu's installed libcppunit-dev package. https://bpa.st/2M4A === JanC_ is now known as JanC [21:45] hi, why I don't find .xsession-errors in my home?

Is it safe to `sudo apt reinstall` a bunch of system packages at once? I just had a filesystem corrupt & everything boots fine again after connecting my hard drive to another computer to do a filesystem repair, but KDE Partition Manager crashes when scanning /dev/sda (the first thing it does when running) now so I'm reinstalling it & all of its dependencies, which includes some KDE Plasma components. === JanC is now known as Guest7321 [23:43] jackemled: look at "sudo dmesg -T" [23:44] jackemled: do you see a lot of ATA/IO/sda errors? [23:49] I don't see any when searching those terms with grep [23:50] don't search, just run it. You'll notice them if they show up [23:50] Am I looking for a specific color? I don't see anything that looks unusual. [23:50] ok, just checking [23:51] checking if you had a bad drive [23:51] jackemled: you can --reinstall just about anything that's installed without issue [23:51] though at this point, you're probably better off with just a fresh install [23:53] The log it outputs goes back to an hour & a half ago. Nothing besides orange & green except for a few blue notifications about EISA or IMA. The only one if those mentioning sda is it saying the optimal transfer rate isn't a multiple of my preferred block size, but it says that about literally every storage device I have. [23:54] I'm actually trying to use the partition manager to check my SMART status & see if I have a bad drive. [23:55] jackemled: there's quite often a bunch of curly brackets { } with hard drive problems, dunno why .. [23:55] My concern about reinstalling things is that it's "just about everything", not "everything", & alot of these dependencies are probably important for Plasma. I'm going to try a previous version of the partition manager first. [23:55] Yeah, no curly brackets at all in dmesg.
