[12:28] <ball> I am told that on Windows there's a program called "Rufus" that can turn a .iso into a bootable USB flash drive.  Is there some equivalent that runs on Ubuntu?
[12:37] <ball> I'll be back later, hopefully...
[13:03] <diddledani> ball: unetbootin
[16:30] <m0nkey_> iso to usb? I've always use dd
[19:02] <daftykins> yeah dd works just dandily, aside from Windows ISOs of course
[19:03] <daftykins> happy Tuesday gang, i've declared it curry night :D
[19:05] <zxmpi> all hot and sticky here so had ham sandwiches for dinner
[19:06] <daftykins> ooh
[19:07] <daftykins> i was out on the road with the bike by 9am for a meet, then returned to those folks with the WiFi woes
[19:07] <daftykins> in the end i am pointing the blame at the Netgear 16 port PoE+ switch, whenever it's in the loop - the APs misbehaved
[19:07] <daftykins> now got temporary PoE injectors running them and speeds are as they should be!
[19:09] <zxmpi> fun when you find it all falls apart when one piece of equipment is in the loop and no indication that it is causing all the grief
[19:12] <daftykins> yep! super weird
[19:14] <m0nkey_> Don't know who here plays video games, but Far Cry 3 is free until Sept 10 on UPlay .. FarCry 3 is free today, older title, but hey.. free... https://store.ubi.com/ca/far-cry-3/575ffd98a3be1633568b4d6c.html?lang=en
[20:34] <daftykins> don't really play, but i hoard... weird though, it's just erroring out for me
[20:34] <daftykins> "This CD key or activation code is not valid. Please try again."
[20:38] <daftykins> probably getting slammed on day 1
[20:42] <m0nkey_> Or it's a regional thing.
[20:43] <daftykins> well it's there in the desktop prog
[20:43] <daftykins> worked now
[20:44] <daftykins> thanks for the heads up, m0nkey_ :)
[20:56] <m0nkey_> Cool
[20:56] <m0nkey_> Hey, when we're giving away free games, I make sure to let people know lol
[20:56] <daftykins> xD
[20:56] <daftykins> "take it! take it all!"
[23:00] <daftykins> g'night all
[23:21] <zxmpi> o/
[23:56] <ball> Thanks diddledani


[01:04] <ShawnR> man, so dead in here
[01:05] <rmcbride> Yea kind of has been. I've seen the mouse click break down if Unity freaks out but not recently
[01:05] <ShawnR> yeah, a restart fixed it, but not sure what triggered it... and it was only left click
[01:08] <rmcbride> something in either unity or compiz apparently causes it. I'm not a Canonicaler anymore so I don't have contact as closely with people that could tell me what the issue is
[01:08] <rmcbride> I havne't seen it in quite a while
[01:08] <rmcbride> myself anyhow
[01:31] <ShawnR> oh well, hopefully it is just a 1 time (or once in a VERY blue moon) thing


[15:45] <Nick76> Hi All, I was installed Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS and checking which version of python is installed, I see python2 and python3 are installed. can some one help me to understand.
[16:04] <dbungert> Nick76: checkout `py3versions -i` and `pyversions -i`.  or `dpkg -l 'python*-minimal'|grep ^ii`
[16:24] <Nick76> for the command $ 'py3versions -i' output python3.10,  for `pyversions -i` output command 'pyversions' not found , but can be installed with: sudo apt install python2. for `dpkg -l 'python*-minimal'|grep ^ii` the output ii python3-minimal 3.10.6-1~22.04 amd64  minimal subset of the python language (default python3 version). ii python3.10-minimal
[16:24] <Nick76> 3.10.12-1~22.04.3 amd64  minimal subset of the python language (version 3.10).
[16:41] <Nick76> Hello dbungert : thank you and here is the output, for the command $ 'py3versions -i' output python3.10,  for `pyversions -i` output command 'pyversions' not found , but can be installed with: sudo apt install python2. for `dpkg -l 'python*-minimal'|grep ^ii` the output ii python3-minimal 3.10.6-1~22.04 amd64  minimal subset of the python language
[16:41] <Nick76> (default python3 version). ii python3.10-minimal 3.10.12-1~22.04.3 amd64  minimal subset of the python language (version 3.10).
[17:39] <frickler> Nick76: so according to that output, only python3 is installed, where did you see python2?
[17:56] <Nick76> Hello frickler : thank you and when I scan security vulnerability I found out "libpython2.7-minimal_2.7.18-13ubuntu1.1", python2.7.18-3,  are vulnerable and I run this command 'apt list python2 -a" output python2/jammy, now 2.7.18-3 amd64 (installed)  and python2/jammy 2.7.18-3 i386.
