| michielc | Hi there! I have an issue after installing Ubuntu Gnome. | 06:04 |
|---|---|---|
| michielc | After a few years of Ubuntu 12.04, yesterday I installed ubuntu gnome 14 | 06:04 |
| michielc | When instering the live usb, my screen started to flicker badly, but after some minutes, I got the installation screen, and installed ubuntu gnome | 06:05 |
| michielc | *instering | 06:05 |
| michielc | *inserting... | 06:05 |
| michielc | Now, after the install, in like 50% of the cases, my computer boots normally. In the other 50% of the cases, the flickering is there again (which is resolved after some minutes). | 06:05 |
| michielc | Is this a known issue, and is there any way to solve this? (I suppose this is something about my graphics card?) | 06:06 |
| michielc | (I have a rather cheap Acer Aspire V3-551-... laptop) | 06:07 |
| michielc | To be clear: the flickering takes place while booting (after choosing ubuntu in grub and before i get the login screen | 06:09 |
| Kungr | does anyone know how to enable recursive search ubuntu-gnome? | 06:51 |
| Kungr | i run tha command gsettings set org.gnome.nautilus.preferences enable-recursive-search true | 06:57 |
| pr0metheu5 | hey guys. I'm having trouble installing gnome-shell and have pastebins of the terminal output. | 07:12 |
| pr0metheu5 | I'm hoping someone can take a look please? | 07:12 |

| pr0metheu5 | I'm running Xubuntu 14.04 | 07:12 |
| darkxst | michielc, I havent heard of that, though it does sound like a driver issue, what gpu do you have/ | 08:05 |
| darkxst | ? | 08:05 |
| michielc | Sorry for my late response | 08:07 |
| michielc | I don't know exactly (and don't have my laptop with me), but i know it's AMD Radeon HD gpu | 08:08 |
| michielc | Because it's a cheap model I don't have a specific dedicated graphics card, just the AMD Radeon HD 7520G | 08:11 |
| darkxst | michielc, are you using the open source radeon driver or proprietary catalyst? | 08:13 |
| darkxst | probably worth trying the other from what you are using | 08:13 |
| michielc | The problem was there from the beginning (the moment I plugged in the live USB), so I guess I currently use the default drivers | 08:15 |
| michielc | I solved some graphical problems in the past by installing these catalyst drivers, so I should indeed give those a try | 08:15 |
| michielc | or are these catalyst drivers the default drivers? | 08:16 |
| darkxst | michielc, no, you have to install catalyst | 08:16 |
| michielc | alright, I'll give it a shot (I'm not sure if I can try it tonight), and I'll be back to let you know if the problems persist | 08:17 |
| michielc | Thanks for your advice :) | 08:17 |
| ceed^ | I'm trying to ppa-purge the staging PPA since Evolution is currently quite broken. However, ppa-purge says it needs to remove evolution, gdm. gnome-shell and mutter which would break my system. Any ideas how I can do this, or do I have to reinstall? | 15:34 |
| hazeldev | hey guys I have a fresh, updated install of gnome 14.04 running on an acer thin client with a touchscreen. Does gnome use caribou or onboard as its onscreen keyboard in ubuntu? Enabling it in the accessibility menu doesn't work and I'm trying to find out where to start. | 16:00 |
| DASPRiD | so, i'm working on a wallpaper for the 14.10 contest… :D | 19:58 |
| DASPRiD | anyone in here who has some insight on the wallpaper contest? | 20:59 |
| DASPRiD | regarding the rules | 20:59 |
| Noskcaj | DASPRiD, what's your question about them? | 21:01 |
| DASPRiD | i've read that no branding assets like "ubuntu gnome" are allowed | 21:02 |
| DASPRiD | because of derivative distributions | 21:02 |
| DASPRiD | so basically one must not identify the wallpaper with ubuntu at call, corect? | 21:02 |
| Noskcaj | yep | 21:02 |
| DASPRiD | too bad, i had such a wonderful idea :( | 21:02 |
| DASPRiD | http://stuff.dasprids.de/screenshots/2014/07/24/222446.png | 21:02 |
| Noskcaj | I suggest you put that on gnome-look | 21:03 |
| DASPRiD | without the ubuntu logo, the gag doesn't really work (utopic unicorn) | 21:03 |
| Noskcaj | I think MLP isn't allowed on the default iso either | 21:03 |
| DASPRiD | it's at least not easy, copyright wise… at least gray zone | 21:04 |
| DASPRiD | ah well, I'll just put it on my dA account | 21:05 |
| DASPRiD | after i added some shading :) | 21:05 |
