| ubottu | En la mayoría de los canales de Ubuntu, se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español entre al canal #ubuntu-es; escriba "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y presione intro. | 01:53 |
| SonikkuAmerica | ObrienDave: Were you planning on speaking Spanish here? | 02:05 |
| ObrienDave | only if you understand taco, burrito, enchilada and frijole ;P | 02:09 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Entiendo más de solamente estas palabras | 02:17 |
| ObrienDave | no, i'm serious, taco, burrito, enchilada and frijole is ALL I understand of spanish ROFL | 02:18 |
| SonikkuAmerica | LMBO | 02:21 |
| ObrienDave | oh, yea. carne asada and carnitas works also LOL | 02:22 |
| SonikkuAmerica | ObrienDave: Big Unit193 is watching us !ot in here :3 | 02:22 |
| ObrienDave | ahh, he'll get over it ;P | 02:23 |
| SonikkuAmerica | :P | 02:23 |
| batzy | Hey guys I'm havin a little issue | 02:26 |
| batzy | I plugged in an hdmi monitor on my xubuntu machine and uhhh | 02:26 |
| batzy | when i set the monitor to the external | 02:27 |
| batzy | the screen got a bunch of black boxes and such | 02:27 |
| batzy | so i restarted the machine and now the session wont load | 02:27 |
| batzy | im not really sure how to fix it | 02:27 |
| ObrienDave | i have no idea how to fix that either. stick around a bit, someone will know | 02:29 |
| batzy | Yeah, I'm just really looking for a way to reset to the default screen | 02:30 |
| batzy | i think i might know of a way actually if i can get to the shell | 02:30 |
| ObrienDave | i think alt-F1 will get you a shell | 02:30 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Ctrl+Alt+F1 | 02:31 |
| ObrienDave | ok, ok PFFFFFFFT ;P | 02:31 |
| batzy | yeah i did that | 02:32 |
| batzy | but like i cant find how to reset the screen here sec ill look it up | 02:32 |
| ObrienDave | you might ask in main channel. bunches more people there | 02:33 |
| batzy | ? | 02:34 |
| batzy | main channel? | 02:34 |
| batzy | whats the main channel | 02:34 |
| ObrienDave | #ubuntu | 02:34 |
| ObrienDave | the main difference between Xubuntu and Ubuntu is the DE. Desktop Environment. they are fundamentally the same | 02:35 |
| ObrienDave | all of the ?buntu versions share the same core | 02:37 |
| batzy | Yeah i know that | 02:37 |
| batzy | i usually just get shit though when i do that | 02:37 |
| ObrienDave | yea, they do tend to get a bit touchy. and some will get touchy about the language here as well ;) LMAO | 02:39 |
| SonikkuAmerica | !language | AHHHH I JUST HEARD A BAD WORD :< | 02:39 |
| ubottu | AHHHH I JUST HEARD A BAD WORD :<: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family-friendly, polite, and professional. | 02:39 |
| SonikkuAmerica | :) | 02:40 |
| batzy | ^ just told me to ask in xubuntu | 02:40 |
| batzy | rofl | 02:40 |
| ObrienDave | don't mind SonikkuAmerica, he's one of the good guys. OH? he WAS one of the good guys ;) | 02:40 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Ohoho | 02:41 |
| batzy | you guys know each other well eh | 02:41 |
| SonikkuAmerica | batzy: HDMI is a little tricky in Xubuntu... first thing I might have you do is disconnect your screen... | 02:41 |
| * SonikkuAmerica drags Unit193 in by the ear into this conversation | 02:42 | |
| Unit193 | !ot | SonikkuAmerica | 02:42 |
| ubottu | SonikkuAmerica: #xubuntu is the Xubuntu support channel, #xubuntu-devel for discussion regarding development of Xubuntu, and #xubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 02:42 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Unit193: Well, actually, if you could tag-team us here, that would be great - we have an HDMI problem in the house. | 02:43 |
| batzy | SonikkuAmerica: yes im just trying to get back to my default laptop screen | 02:43 |
| batzy | SonikkuAmerica: i dont care if the hdmi works or not | 02:43 |
| batzy | but right now its trying to load the hdmi automatically and it isnt working | 02:43 |
| SonikkuAmerica | batzy: Did you disconnect your screen now? | 02:43 |
| batzy | the hdmi screen yeah? | 02:43 |
| SonikkuAmerica | So it's disconnected now. | 02:44 |
| Unit193 | SonikkuAmerica: Fixed the session won't login issue? | 02:44 |
| batzy | yes | 02:44 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Unit193: Huh? | 02:44 |
| batzy | xfce wont start on my user now SonikkuAmerica | 02:44 |
| batzy | with my normal screen | 02:44 |
| SonikkuAmerica | batzy: Does it loop back to the lightdm login? | 02:44 |
| batzy | no | 02:45 |
| SonikkuAmerica | What does it do? | 02:45 |
| batzy | it's just hung up and frozen, no mouse even | 02:45 |
| batzy | i believe its because i set the default screen for this user to the hdmi monitor | 02:45 |
| SonikkuAmerica | batzy: Can you Ctrl+Alt+F1? | 02:45 |
| batzy | yep | 02:45 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Log into the terminal, then type [ sudo service lightdm restart ] | 02:45 |
| batzy | SonikkuAmerica: a quick other detail. When i login the screen flashes black and then all it is is the wallpaper and it hangs up | 02:46 |
| SonikkuAmerica | (It should switch into the GUI | 02:46 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Just do what I say for now and report your findings. | 02:46 |
| batzy | yes it did | 02:46 |
| batzy | okay im at the GUI | 02:47 |
| SonikkuAmerica | At the login? | 02:47 |
| batzy | yes | 02:47 |
| SonikkuAmerica | The heck? Did I get kicked? | 02:48 |
| batzy | we;cp,e nacl | 02:48 |
| batzy | nah it said you left | 02:48 |
| batzy | welcome back* | 02:49 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Did it say "requested by"? | 02:49 |
| SonikkuAmerica | And thx | 02:49 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Anyway... what happened when you logged in? | 02:49 |
| batzy | uhhh | 02:50 |
| batzy | the screen goes black | 02:50 |
| SonikkuAmerica | And dies a horrible death? | 02:50 |
| batzy | it's just...black | 02:50 |
| batzy | i mean i can tell you why | 02:50 |
| batzy | it's because it's looking for that hdmi monitor | 02:50 |
| batzy | i just need to reset the default monitor for this user | 02:51 |
| batzy | but im not familiar with what CLI utilities can do that | 02:51 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Try [ sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ] | 02:52 |
| batzy | what does that do | 02:54 |
| ObrienDave | reconfigures the xserver | 02:54 |
| batzy | kk | 02:54 |
| batzy | i typed it in | 02:54 |
| batzy | hold on one sec | 02:54 |
| ObrienDave | your display | 02:54 |
| SonikkuAmerica | You may want to restart lightdm after that too | 02:55 |
| batzy | k the screen flashed black | 02:55 |
| batzy | the back wallpaper is up... | 02:55 |
| batzy | annddd nothing | 02:55 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Right-click? | 02:55 |
| batzy | nope. there's no cursor either | 02:55 |
| SonikkuAmerica | can you pastebin the output of /etc/X11/xorg.conf ? (Install pastebinit first) | 02:56 |
| batzy | yeah whats the syntax for pastebinit | 02:56 |
| * ObrienDave suggests hooking HDMI back up and seeing if you can turn it off from there | 02:56 | |
| batzy | wait hold on im just gonna connect to irc on that my sachine | 02:56 |
| batzy | ObrienDave: no | 02:56 |
| ObrienDave | ok | 02:56 |
| batzy | the screen got a buncha black squares and such | 02:57 |
| batzy | wasnt pretty | 02:57 |
| ObrienDave | ok, gotcha | 02:57 |
| batzy | alright ill be right back | 02:57 |
| batzy | Alrighty | 02:58 |
| batzy | what did you lot want me to do again? | 02:58 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Reconnect your HDMI monitor, black squares and all, and see if you can turn off the screen from there. | 02:58 |
| batzy | No like | 02:59 |
| batzy | It didnt' load like that | 02:59 |
| batzy | it freezes | 02:59 |
| batzy | you wanted what file again? | 02:59 |
| SonikkuAmerica | /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 02:59 |
| ObrienDave | what about xrandr? | 02:59 |
| batzy | SonikkuAmerica: it doesn't exist :o | 03:00 |
| SonikkuAmerica | You don't have an xorg.conf file?! :o | 03:00 |
| batzy | no I guess not. | 03:00 |
| batzy | Not there at least | 03:00 |
| SonikkuAmerica | You could try Super+T, then [ xrandr -s 800x600 ] first | 03:01 |
| batzy | Super? | 03:01 |
| batzy | wat | 03:01 |
| batzy | WHATS THE SUPER BUTTON | 03:01 |
| SonikkuAmerica | If that doesn't work, [ xrandr -s 1024x768 ] | 03:01 |
| SonikkuAmerica | The one with the Windows logo on it | 03:02 |
| SonikkuAmerica | (usually) | 03:02 |
| batzy | and where do i want to press super t? | 03:02 |
| SonikkuAmerica | (1) Ctrl+Alt+F7 (2) Super+T (3) [ xrandr -s 1024x768 ] <ENTER> | 03:02 |
| batzy | is something supposed to show up when i press super t? | 03:03 |
| batzy | cuz like | 03:03 |
| batzy | the screen is just black over there | 03:03 |
| ObrienDave | yres, you should get a terminal screen | 03:03 |
| ObrienDave | *yes | 03:03 |
| batzy | nah, thats not working | 03:04 |
| batzy | it doesnt do anything | 03:04 |
| SonikkuAmerica | batzy: Does something appear in the garbled portion of the screen? | 03:04 |
| batzy | it's odd though because i can login on my guest account too | 03:04 |
| batzy | nope | 03:04 |
| SonikkuAmerica | You see this is where the one hundred and ninety-third unit could step in if he's around. | 03:05 |
| batzy | ? | 03:06 |
| batzy | and yeah the guest account works perfectly.. | 03:06 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Try this: Hit Ctrl+Alt+F1, log in (if you aren't already) and run [ rm -rf ~/.Xauthority ] , then restart lightdm. | 03:07 |
| batzy | k | 03:11 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Any luck? | 03:11 |
| batzy | noope | 03:12 |
| batzy | it dims my screen tho lol | 03:12 |
| ObrienDave | dang | 03:12 |
| batzy | :( | 03:13 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Maybe doge'ing about it would help. | 03:13 |
| Unit193 | No. | 03:13 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Well, I'm outta ideas. :( | 03:13 |
| batzy | doge? | 03:13 |
| SonikkuAmerica | I won't explain that here, Unit193 hates it. | 03:14 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Also it's !ot | 03:14 |
| batzy | okkk so what now | 03:14 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Google? (I already did, your sitch seems to be a common problem) | 03:15 |
| batzy | If it's common how come there's no way to fix it.. | 03:15 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Are you using a proprietary driver? | 03:17 |
| batzy | uhh | 03:17 |
| batzy | just the intel one | 03:17 |
| batzy | idk? no i guess not | 03:17 |
| SonikkuAmerica | xserver-xorg-video-intel ? | 03:17 |
| batzy | http://paste.ubuntu.com/6632307/ | 03:18 |
| batzy | idk if that will tell you anything, i didnt look at it | 03:18 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Probably, if you have Intel HD graphics. Without your /etc/X11/Xorg.conf I can't tell. | 03:18 |
| SonikkuAmerica | (We're kind of at an impasse without it) | 03:19 |
| batzy | i have intel hd | 03:19 |
| batzy | when i do xrandr --prop it says 'cant open display' | 03:20 |
| batzy | dfl | 03:21 |
| batzy | sd | 03:21 |
| batzy | ad | 03:21 |
| batzy | bye | 03:22 |
| SonikkuAmerica | r3 | 03:22 |
| SonikkuAmerica | >sigh< -1 for me | 03:22 |
| ObrienDave | wow | 03:25 |
| ObrienDave | he just *poof* like that? | 03:25 |
| ObrienDave | well, dang. me thinks me need some sleep. c ya | 03:27 |
| SonikkuAmerica | bai | 03:27 |
| batzy | SonikkuAmerica, I fixed it | 04:19 |
| jdm | I remember using Kubuntu and Ubuntu live DVD/CD/USB's | 04:37 |
| jdm | and something worked on the Ubuntu liveCD but it didnt work on Kubuntu | 04:37 |
| jdm | which is why i wanted to try out Xubuntu first | 04:37 |
| jdm | im back in windows 7 now | 04:37 |
| jdm | it is using 1.7GB of RAM | 04:38 |
| jdm | and i have xchat and pidgin open and that's it | 04:38 |
| batzy | I used to use Arch | 04:39 |
| batzy | Then I went to Gentoo, and now I'm on Xubuntu | 04:39 |
| jdm | ive used almost all of them | 04:42 |
| jdm | but i havent used linux on the desktop in years | 04:42 |
| jdm | i started out on Slackware and Mandrake Linux | 04:42 |
| holstein | jgm: its more likely different versions. like, ubuntu 12.04 "worked" and kubuntu 13.10 "didnt work" | 04:54 |
| holstein | jgm: the kernels and the software support are much the same.. | 04:54 |

| popsch | hi. I can't mount a usb drive. I already gave my account the permissions under system -> users -> permissions | 16:54 |
| popsch | I can see the drive in thunar, but when I click on it, it says 'not authorized' | 16:55 |
| popsch | I can mount it as root, but my parents won't understand doing this all the time | 16:55 |
| bazhang | put it in fstab? | 17:00 |
| popsch | bazhang, but it's always a different sdX, depending on how many other drives are attached | 17:02 |
| bazhang | how many are we talking | 17:02 |
| popsch | I don't know how many they will plug in, and as usual with parents, they're computer illiterate and short tempered | 17:03 |
| bazhang | and is this a usb hdd, or a usb stick | 17:03 |
| popsch | it's a camera | 17:03 |
| popsch | but lsusb lists it as a card reader (sdc at the moment) | 17:03 |
| bazhang | !find gmtp | 17:03 |
| ubottu | Found: gmtp | 17:03 |
| bazhang | some cameras can be read as media storage devices | 17:04 |
| bazhang | check it's set that way | 17:04 |
| popsch | hm. but I can mount it via mount /dev/sdc | 17:04 |
| bazhang | installing gmtp may help as well | 17:04 |
| popsch | it's also visible in Thunar | 17:04 |
| popsch | as a mountable drive. there's somewhere a quirk in the permission system | 17:05 |
| bazhang | highly doubtful | 17:05 |
| popsch | beats me. I just rebooted and it automounted the drive | 17:06 |
| bazhang | sounds like an unclean removal tbh | 17:06 |
| popsch | I installed usbmount, because I read that ubuntu-based servers need it | 17:06 |
| popsch | the system is based on xubuntu, but I thought, better give it a try | 17:07 |
| bazhang | and your parents are going to working with a server? | 17:07 |
| bazhang | not sure what "based on xubuntu" means there | 17:08 |
| bazhang | a server has no gui | 17:08 |
| popsch | no, it's a desktop-based xubuntu | 17:08 |
| popsch | I just installed it, because I thought it might help | 17:08 |
| popsch | and it did | 17:08 |
| bazhang | xubuntu is gui, ie desktop | 17:08 |
| === xGrind-AFK is now known as xGrind | ||
| popsch | bazhang, no, I meant I installed the system from a xubuntu install image | 17:09 |
| popsch | so it's ubuntu + xfce | 17:09 |
| bazhang | did you mean a distro not actually xubuntu, but based on it? | 17:09 |
| popsch | I mean the distro | 17:09 |
| bazhang | so ubuntu and xubuntu-desktop or the like | 17:09 |
| popsch | correct | 17:10 |
| bazhang | thats still ubuntu | 17:10 |
| tnwnsf | does xubuntu 12.04 have pulseaudio working by default ? | 17:10 |
| bazhang | as is kubuntu, lubuntu, edubuntu, ubuntustudio, and uh | 17:10 |
| brainwash | tnwnsf: yes it does | 17:10 |
| popsch | bazhang, thanks for the responses. it turns out that my install was missing pmount + usbmount | 17:11 |
| bazhang | ok | 17:11 |
| tnwnsf | brainwash, does adjusting the audio in applications change the system-level output ? | 17:11 |
| tnwnsf | master-level* | 17:12 |
| brainwash | depends | 17:12 |
| bazhang | which apps tnwnsf | 17:12 |
| popsch | tnwnsf, I think if it's the only application then yes, otherwise no | 17:12 |
| popsch | I meant that if only one application is running, then it affects the master-level, otherwise it does not | 17:12 |
| tnwnsf | well vlc on debian is retarded, wheneever i change the volume it changes the master-volume as well | 17:12 |
| bazhang | never seen that happen | 17:13 |
| tnwnsf | so i'm hoping xubuntu doesn't do it | 17:13 |
| tnwnsf | bazhang, i've been banging my head trying to figure it out. it's retarded and annoying | 17:13 |
| bazhang | of course, vlc goes above 100% for volume, so who knows | 17:13 |
| tnwnsf | bazhang, even if i adjust audio lower than 100% it adjust master as well | 17:14 |
| bazhang | sounds like a bug then tnwnsf | 17:14 |
| bazhang | does mplayer do this on your system as well? | 17:14 |
| popsch | tnwnsf, I just tested it | 17:15 |
| popsch | tnwnsf, if you crank up the volume in vlc beyond the master-level, then vlc will increase the master-level | 17:15 |
| bazhang | heh | 17:15 |
| popsch | if you then decrease the volume, the master-level will stay where it is and just the application-specific level will decrease | 17:15 |
| tnwnsf | let me switch over to xfce, just a sec | 17:16 |
| popsch | so: app-level 10, master level 15; you crank up the volume to max: app-level 100, master level 100; you decrease the volume: appl-level 50, master level 100 | 17:16 |
| bazhang | he quit | 17:16 |
| tnwnsf | popsch, try just adjusting volume down, the master is also reduced | 17:20 |
| bazhang | so: app-level 10, master level 15; you crank up the volume to max: app-level 100, master level 100; you decrease the volume: appl-level 50, master level 100 tnwnsf | 17:20 |
| bazhang | what he posted right after you quit | 17:21 |
| tnwnsf | bazhang, yeap | 17:21 |
| us_0gb | That's lame. Most sound applications have a separate volume level where <application sound> * <system sound> == <actual output>. | 17:22 |

| Meerkat | conor, 3 of them look red. in the middle | 20:24 |
| conor | Meerkat: So, it stays red if I do something wrong ... like try to cd into a non-exisitant directory | 20:25 |
| conor | This is probably more of a zsh question rather than a xbuntu question come to think of it | 20:26 |
| brainwash | conor: yes, you better ask in #zsh :) | 20:28 |
| mortrevere_ | Hi all | 21:05 |
| mortrevere_ | Is this the right channel for Xubuntu support ? | 21:06 |
| Meerkat | yes | 21:06 |
| Meerkat | bienvenue | 21:07 |
| mortrevere_ | Great ! So here's the problem : i just got my vaio pro 13 for xmas (really nice machine btw), but it came with Win 8 preinstalled ... I'm a big xubuntu fan since 2 years and wanted to install it (alone, not alongside win 8) | 21:08 |
| mortrevere_ | So i proceeded to the installation, everything went fine and the system seems to be installed, but i am unable to boot on it at all | 21:09 |
| mortrevere_ | When i power up the computer, i get the VAIO splash screen, then it goes black, same splash screen again, and then "Your VAIO computer was unable to start windows" (oh, no shit, I wiped the disk twice ...) | 21:10 |
| Meerkat | when you installed xubuntu did you check to make sure you overwrote all partitions of the drive? | 21:11 |
| TheSheep | mortrevere_: make sure you have secure boot disabled in bios | 21:11 |
| mortrevere_ | As this has never happened to me with previous installations I was wondering if some issues were known about installing in UEFI and all ? (since it's the first time i'm trying to install on this, i always did it on regular BIOS machines) | 21:11 |
| Meerkat | win8 seem to have several partitions, some which are only used to boot for windows8. | 21:11 |
| mortrevere_ | TheSheep: done | 21:11 |
| mortrevere_ | i'm struggling with this since this morning actually | 21:12 |
| mortrevere_ | Meerkat: I deleted all partitions and created new ones for xubuntu | 21:12 |
| mortrevere_ | So ... windows should have disappeared right ? Why is the UEFI trying to boot on it ? | 21:13 |
| TheSheep | they probably just used the word 'windows' in the message instead of 'system' | 21:14 |
| mortrevere_ | (i tried everything from boot-repair to replacing .efi file on /boot by hand ... getting kinda stuck here) | 21:14 |
| mortrevere_ | TheSheep: yeah probably | 21:15 |
| TheSheep | if all else fails, you could ask the Sony support, after all they got money for it | 21:15 |
| TheSheep | just don't let them say that they don't support linux, this is not a problem with linux | 21:16 |
| mortrevere_ | that's right, do you think they support linux installations ? (i don't really wan't to call to hear "just reinstall windows" as a solution) | 21:16 |
| TheSheep | linux didn't even boot yet | 21:16 |
| Meerkat | mortrevere_, did you to an advanced install or just pretty much click next all the way through when installing Xubuntu? | 21:17 |
| Meerkat | if advanced, try a normal "easy" install and see if that boots. | 21:17 |
| TheSheep | I wish this was true: http://xkcd.com/806/ | 21:17 |
| mortrevere_ | Meerkat: during the day I installed the thing about 6 times, advanced and basic, nothing works | 21:17 |
| Meerkat | mortrevere_, does it say anything about missing boot device? | 21:19 |
| mortrevere_ | TheSheep: i'll try the "shibboleet" thing then, i guess ... | 21:19 |
| ozberk | hi guys | 21:19 |
| Meerkat | ...when booting | 21:19 |
| TheSheep | mortrevere_: good luck | 21:20 |
| mortrevere_ | Meerkat: "system couldn't be found" | 21:20 |
| TheSheep | mortrevere_: oh, I assume you googled your laptop's make and model with 'ubuntu' already | 21:20 |
| ozberk | I need some help with that http://u1312.hizliresim.com/1j/t/vw81k.png I installed the xfce4-mixer but the icon on the pannel is so big how can I change it | 21:21 |
| TheSheep | ozberk: I'm not sure you can | 21:21 |
| TheSheep | ozberk: I mean, not easily | 21:22 |
| Meerkat | mortrevere_, in bios boot options, can you see the hard drive or an entry named "ubuntu"? | 21:22 |
| ozberk | TheShepp I would like to use standart pluseaudio applet but it is not work | 21:22 |
| mortrevere_ | TheSheep: let's say that half of the google page for "Vaio pro 13 ubuntu" is purple :( | 21:22 |
| mortrevere_ | Meerkat: the thing is that there are only 2 things in the boot options : external device (USB) or Internal SSD | 21:23 |
| mortrevere_ | oh well i found something else http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QeNTtn231cU | 21:23 |
| TheSheep | mortrevere_: it's not here? http://www.linlap.com/sony | 21:24 |
| mortrevere_ | looks like a solution ? | 21:24 |
| mortrevere_ | TheSheep: no | 21:24 |
| TheSheep | well, at least you know it works for somebody | 21:24 |
| uBUXUBu | merry christmas | 21:25 |
| mortrevere_ | yeah, i was thinking it may be impossible | 21:25 |
| mortrevere_ | (which is very unlikely but who knows what's happening with secure boot and windows 8) | 21:25 |
| TheSheep | mortrevere_: so did you try http://askubuntu.com/questions/360285/13-10-on-vaio-pro-with-uefi ? | 21:25 |
| mortrevere_ | yep that's one of this first things i tried | 21:26 |
| Meerkat | mortrevere_, does it have a cd drive? | 21:27 |
| Meerkat | odd question, I know. It's just that I had massive problems with booting a computer that I installed via a USB memory stick. | 21:28 |
| mortrevere_ | no cd drive, the thing is to thin ahah | 21:30 |
| mortrevere_ | a real mac book air, 2000€ cheaper | 21:30 |
| mortrevere_ | i'm gonna try the method of the guy from the video | 21:31 |
| mortrevere_ | ok i gave up on installing in UEFI mode, works like a charm in Legacy mode ! | 22:11 |
| mortrevere_ | too bad but ... | 22:11 |
| mortrevere_ | thanks everybody | 22:11 |
| TheSheep | too bad | 22:11 |
| TheSheep | but yeah, it's important that it works | 22:12 |
| TheSheep | and kudos for getting rid of windows :) | 22:12 |
