[00:04] which package manager uses yum? [00:04] mikubuntu: sorry, I had to step away. Can you copy/paste the output to ubuntu.pastebin.com and paste the URL for it here? [00:04] is that redhat/fedora's one? [00:04] monkeystance: yes [00:06] fedora uses dnf now [00:07] yeah but then the joke doesn't work [00:11] What does "unattended-upgrades" do by default with new versions of configuration files? When I dpkg-reconfigure unattended-upgrades , the only option it asks me about is whether to enable or disable the feature as a whole. [00:12] I was AFK; I didn't get the msg [00:13] !who | jacobRD23 [00:13] jacobRD23: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [00:14] !who [00:14] As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [00:15] !tab [00:15] You can use your key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. [00:17] jacobRD23: you wrote "I was AFK; I didn't get the msg", which suggests that you're responding to someoene who contacted you here on this #ubuntu channel before. lefty noticed this and asked our channel bot 'ubottu' to tell you that if you're responding to someone in particular, you should always prefix your response using their nickname. [00:22] leftyfb: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/tHSC6g9vzT/ [00:23] mikubuntu: ok, so it's not a networking issue [00:23] Gerowen: i'm not 100% certain there, but i think that if a configuration file it encounters was manually edited, it would keep the edited file in place, adding another file ${filename}.dpkg-new [00:23] mikecmpbll: what happens when you try to go to google.com with firefox? [00:23] idk, aint tried it [00:23] ;) [00:24] mikecmpbll: ok, so you know your next step [00:25] leftyfb: do note there's three people in here with 'mik' nicks :) perhaps it's just tab-misfire ;) [00:25] ugh [00:26] mikubuntu: what happens when you try to go to google.com with firefox? [00:26] :P [00:30] leftyfb: progress indicator just goes around and around and never renders page [00:30] mikubuntu: in a terminal, try: curl google.com [00:32] leftyfb: installing curl .. lol [00:33] mikubuntu: if you can install curl, that tells me that http traffic works [00:34] mikubuntu: have you tried moving your ~/.mozilla directory with all your user settings out of the way to see if it helps? [00:35] leftyfb: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/WWrytFgBmR/ [00:35] mikubuntu: mv ~/.mozilla ~/mozilla [00:35] mikubuntu: Also, close firefox first [00:36] leftyfb: ok gimme sec [00:40] leftyfb: ok, ff is working again, i wonder if opera will [00:41] leftyfb: nope, opera still not connecting just like ff wasn't [00:42] tomreyn: That seems to be what I've found online. Right now I'm browsing the 50unattended-upgrades config file and checking out what options are in here. [00:42] mikubuntu: how did you install opera? [00:43] leftyfb: can't remember it's been so long [00:44] mikubuntu: snap list | grep opera [00:44] mikubuntu: run that in a terminal. Does it give a result? [00:45] leftyfb: no output, just went back to prompt [00:46] try snap find opera [00:46] sarnold: I know opera is available in snap. That's not what I was looking for [00:46] leftyfb: ah! I see. :) [00:47] mikubuntu: ok, unfortunately, opera is not part of ubuntu repositories so it's unsupported here. You can maybe google around for where opera stores it's settings and wipe them [00:48] leftyfb: okey dokes thx for help with ff [00:48] mikubuntu: it might be ~/.opera or ~/.Opera [00:49] leftyfb: sokay, i wouldn't know how to determine that and it's not a mission critical issue here at mission control .. lol [00:50] mikubuntu: ls -ald ~/.[o,O]pera
