| nshire | where is appropriate to put android studio? this guide I am reading says to put it under /usr/local to have it installed just for my user accoutn | 00:36 |
|---|---|---|
| nshire | I''m wondering if it would be more appropriate to put it under my home directory instead | 00:38 |
| kuromi | if you're on a multi-user system, and you want it installed just for your user, the standard location would be $HOME/.local | 00:46 |
| nshire | while this system doesn't actually have multiple users, I'd like to follow that | 00:47 |
| kuromi | ofc! just make sure $HOME/.local/bin is in your PATH | 00:48 |
| ravage | There is also https://snapcraft.io/android-studio | 00:50 |
| ravage | But have not used that myself yet | 00:50 |
| nshire | it seems as though it doesn't matter where I put the initially downloaded folder as it runs it own installer | 00:51 |
| ravage | Snaps are usually a good way to keep things separated and easy to remove again | 00:52 |
| kuromi | Snaps are great :) | 00:53 |

| BluesKaj | Hi all | 11:58 |
| thomas34323 | a new minor version of a software was released, but is not yet packages for ubuntu 24.04. Is there a way to request an update for the ubuntu package? | 12:53 |
| mgedmin | only if it fixes a critical bug: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates | 12:55 |
| nteodosio | thomas34323, except for some packages that have minor releases allowances. | 12:55 |
| mgedmin | oh, I see that page moved to https://documentation.ubuntu.com/sru/en/latest/ | 12:55 |
| thomas34323 | it is a dev package that contains headers that do not compile with gcc 15. I guess that does not count as critical? | 13:04 |
| tomreyn | that's not a reason in favor of an SRU | 13:06 |
| thomas34323 | thanks! | 13:08 |

| jp__ | i have a piece of software that relies on libtinfo5 | 17:13 |
| jp__ | For ubuntu 2024 that is no longer available | 17:13 |
| -ubottu:#ubuntu- Launchpad bug 2024 in gnome-vfs2 (Ubuntu) "negotiate/auth support for gssapi is broken" [Medium, Fix Released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/2024 | 17:13 | |
| jp__ | but it has the same function in libncurses6 | 17:14 |
| jp__ | Seems from reading online that you can create a symlink and (at least for this software) it will work 1 to 1 | 17:14 |
| jp__ | My question is, however | 17:14 |
| jp__ | Where is this libncurses installed? | 17:14 |
| leftyfb | jp__: just use libtinfo6 | 17:14 |
| jp__ | i have it leftyfb | 17:15 |
| jp__ | But i dont know where it is installed to create the symlink | 17:15 |
| jp__ | i cant seem to find the .so file | 17:15 |
| jp__ | which doesn't work so great anymore | 17:16 |

| Some_Person | Has something changed in recent versions of Ubuntu? I have an old machine that can't seem to boot the 22.04 or 24.04 ISOs | 21:40 |
| JanC | how old? | 21:40 |
| Some_Person | I get an "error : unknown filesystem" and end up at a grub rescue prompt | 21:40 |
| Some_Person | It's a Core 2 Quad machine from the 2000s | 21:40 |
| JanC | so that's a 32-bits system? | 21:40 |
| Some_Person | No, it supports 64-bit | 21:41 |
| Some_Person | The 20.04 amd64 ISO boots fine | 21:41 |
| JanC | oh, right, the original Core was 32-bits, Core 2 were the first 64-bits | 21:43 |
| JanC | it's strange indeed, especially as you say that GRUB boots, but can't load linux? | 21:45 |
| Some_Person | It doesn't get very far: https://i.imgur.com/JuDW3iO.jpeg | 21:46 |
| JanC | you can try to find & mount the filesystem from GRUB's rescue prompt & boot manually, I guess (the GRUB manual might be helpful with that) | 21:50 |
| JanC | I'm not sure anything changed in GRUB or in how the live images are made... | 21:51 |
| Some_Person | Well it seems like something must have changed, and I'm not sure what to do about it | 22:01 |
| JanC | maybe file a bug (if nobody else did so yet) | 22:02 |
| JanC | is it booting in UEFI mode or legacy BIOS emulation mode? | 22:04 |
| Some_Person | This machine is BIOS-only | 22:05 |

| ravage | you may get around it using ventoy | 22:06 |
| ravage | would still try to create the bootable USB with another tool like etcher | 22:11 |
| JanC | hm, yeah, did you check the image was not corrupted & written properly? | 22:13 |
| Some_Person | I'm using an iodd device which emulates an optical drive. You can just drop ISOs on them, select them on the device, and then the machine can normally boot them. | 22:14 |
| Some_Person | I suppose I could try writing it to a USB stick instead... if I can find one big enough lying around that I can erase and that isn't dead... | 22:16 |
| ravage | so try something less odd | 22:16 |
| Some_Person | seriously, I've had 3 of these stupid things die on me in the past year. I am probably cursed. | 22:16 |
| Some_Person | I've never seen a machine fail to boot an ISO off the iodd, but I suppose the Ubuntu bootloader might be doing something very weird... | 22:17 |
| ravage | well. i booted that ISO on a lot of devices. never had any issues | 22:18 |
| ravage | not on many devices that make a better room heater than a computer though | 22:20 |
| Some_Person | okay, managed to find a flash drive, albeit one I recall being very slow | 22:22 |
| Some_Person | ravage: I actually have a purpose for this machine. I'm going to use it to do captures of analog media, and it's plenty powerful enough to do that. | 22:29 |
| BIT | hello, timeshift filled my hd i tried to restore from timestamp image but when comp reboots it is stuck on a black screen | 22:39 |
| BIT | browsers are gone and downloads snap on desktop | 22:49 |
| Some_Person | Okay. Booting off a physical USB stick works | 23:00 |
| Some_Person | so my best guess is that at some point the bootloader's ability to read from optical media was dropped? | 23:00 |
| Some_Person | man, that makes things far less convenient for me | 23:01 |
| Some_Person | I suppose I could convert it to a VHD. The iodd supports that too. Although it's support for that format has an extremely annoying quirk in that the file must be contiguous, no fragments | 23:03 |
| Some_Person | but at least I'll be able to use this to install right now. It'll just take ages because this flash drive is extremely slow | 23:05 |
| JanC | the good thing is that (hopefully) you only have to install once :) | 23:07 |
| Some_Person | I bought the iodd so that I'd never have to write an installer to a USB stick ever again | 23:09 |
| BIT | hello, timeshift filled my hd i tried to restore from timestamp image but when comp reboots it is stuck on a black screen | 23:54 |
