| auscompgeek | cosmo: not a wm/de issue. | 00:36 |
|---|---|---|
| auscompgeek | cosmo: you should install the virtualbox guest additions from the ubuntu repos | 00:37 |
| cosmo | auscompgeek, in the VM or the Host OS? Host OS is Debian if that makes any difference. | 00:46 |
| auscompgeek | cosmo: in the VM, of course :P | 00:47 |
| cosmo | thanks! | 00:47 |
| auscompgeek | installing guest additions in the host … won't do much. | 00:47 |
| auscompgeek | np | 00:47 |
| cosmo | yeah, it gets murky | 00:48 |
| cosmo | to me anyway, still getting used to this. i'd like to have a VM per workspace. | 00:48 |
| cosmo | but these tiny screens man | 00:49 |
| cosmo | grumbles | 00:49 |
| cosmo | yesss it works! | 01:01 |
| cosmo | McDuh, had to install the broken packages. | 01:02 |
| cosmo | or reinstall i guess. | 01:02 |
| cosmo | i tunneled my tunnel, fun | 01:09 |
| auscompgeek | `apt-get install -f` fixes those :P | 01:10 |
| cosmo | what is the proper term for those '-f' things? arguments, identifiers | 01:11 |
| auscompgeek | if an argument starts with '-', it's usually a switch | 01:12 |
| cosmo | so "call aptitude, install/change packages, that are broken" something like that... | 01:13 |
| cosmo | operator operator, get me line 2 | 01:14 |
| cosmo | get me outta here morpheus | 01:14 |
| cosmo | i'm more of a political bent than technical, i'm good with people | 01:15 |
| cosmo | computers are fun though. i'm trying to learn how to set up a secure-ish system for cryptocurrency use | 01:15 |
| Brontx | Small question about Thunar: Is there a way to adjust the column justification in the detailed list view? The Size column is right-justified and all the others are left-justified. It's a small thing but it's been annoying me. Thanks. | 02:50 |
| xubuntu94w | hi there. I am using xubuntu 14.04 | 05:44 |
| xubuntu94w | LTS , and I have no longer support | 05:44 |
| cfhowlett | 14.04 is still supported. | 05:44 |
| xubuntu94w | the US and Main servers are not working | 05:44 |
| ObrienDave | try a different server | 05:44 |
| xubuntu94w | I used select best server botton and also does not work | 05:45 |
| ObrienDave | select "other" and try the one closest to you | 05:45 |
| xubuntu94w | I can have server from all over the world but it is in vain | 05:45 |
| ObrienDave | how long has this been going on? | 05:46 |
| xubuntu94w | since the last year | 05:46 |
| xubuntu94w | 2 years remain | 05:47 |
| xubuntu94w | the release finishes on 2017 | 05:47 |
| cfhowlett | you're telling us NOW that you haven't had an active repo since LAST YEAR?? | 05:47 |
| ObrienDave | do you have ALL of the standard repos enabled? | 05:47 |
| xubuntu94w | one week ago I can not have the updates | 05:48 |
| xubuntu94w | working for one year good | 05:48 |
| ObrienDave | where do you live? | 05:48 |
| xubuntu94w | PERU | 05:48 |
| ObrienDave | have you tried the chile servers? | 05:49 |
| xubuntu94w | is there anyproblem? | 05:50 |
| xubuntu94w | not yet | 05:50 |
| ObrienDave | keep trying servers in neighboring countries | 05:50 |
| ObrienDave | make sure ALL standard repos are enabled | 05:50 |
| xubuntu94w | I remembered I install debian to my brother's computer using server from texas and running great | 05:50 |
| ObrienDave | keep trying servers in neighboring countries | 05:52 |
| xubuntu94w | just appeared a new message : xubuntu 14.10 is now available but you have 14.04 | 05:52 |
| cfhowlett | xubuntu94w, is LONG TERM SUPPORT. 14.10 is supported for 9 months | 05:53 |
| ObrienDave | 14.04 is good until 2017 | 05:53 |
| xubuntu94w | yeah, why is not working then? | 05:53 |
| ObrienDave | but you knew that :) | 05:53 |
| ObrienDave | i don't know. try asking in #ubuntu. many more people to help there | 05:54 |
| xubuntu94w | I have tried one server from Chile, it does not work either, | 05:54 |
| ObrienDave | what happens? | 05:55 |
| xubuntu94w | but still remain 2 | 05:55 |
| xubuntu94w | message :Failled to download repository information | 05:55 |
| xubuntu94w | W:Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/samrog131/ppa/ubuntu/dists/trusty/main/binary-i386/Packages 404 Not Found , E:Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead. | 05:55 |
| ObrienDave | it's quite possible there is just a bad connection from your area to the servers. ALL of them seems unlikely | 05:56 |
| xubuntu94w | the hell is going on? | 05:56 |
| ObrienDave | ok, that's a PPA issue | 05:56 |
| cfhowlett | ObrienDave, dns? | 05:56 |
| ObrienDave | probably | 05:56 |
| xubuntu94w | I have openDNS to block porno | 05:56 |
| ObrienDave | what are your DNS addresses? | 05:57 |
| ObrienDave | try the google addresses. 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4 | 05:57 |
| xubuntu94w | dns SERVER : 208.67.222.123, 208.67.220.123 | 05:57 |
| ObrienDave | having two addresses the same is not usually a good idea | 05:58 |
| xubuntu94w | THEy are not the same, look at it well | 05:59 |
| ObrienDave | oops, i see the difference. sorry | 05:59 |
| xubuntu94w | should I change them in order to get the upgrade¿ | 05:59 |
| ObrienDave | you can try. then change back after | 06:00 |
| xubuntu94w | what about the google dns ? | 06:00 |
| ObrienDave | it's also possible that PPA does not exist anymore | 06:00 |
| xangua | what PPA¿ | 06:01 |
| ObrienDave | go through your PPA list and disable the one giving you trouble | 06:01 |
| xubuntu94w | but it is from the U:S: server, how can not exist anymore? | 06:01 |
| ObrienDave | PPAs are NOT from the same server | 06:01 |
| xubuntu94w | how can I know the trouble one'? | 06:01 |
| ObrienDave | https://launchpad.net/~samrog131/+ppa-packages | 06:02 |
| ObrienDave | look up the address in the error message :) | 06:03 |
| ObrienDave | if any ONE PPA errors out, you can NOT complete the updates | 06:03 |
| ObrienDave | you have a PPA issue | 06:03 |
| cfhowlett | ObrienDave, disable the ppa temporarily | 06:04 |
| ObrienDave | that's what i'm trying to get him to do :) | 06:04 |
| xubuntu94w | I have it unchecked now | 06:04 |
| xubuntu94w | then? | 06:04 |
| ObrienDave | take over please, i need a potty break | 06:04 |
| ObrienDave | cfhowlett, | 06:05 |
| cfhowlett | xubuntu94w, reload/refresh then | 06:05 |
| xubuntu94w | ubuntu sofwatre center does not show up anymore | 06:06 |
| xubuntu94w | using the fucking terminal :D | 06:06 |
| cfhowlett | xubuntu94w, profanity >>> you get added to my /ignore file | 06:07 |
| xubuntu94w | bad app disabled and server from chile , think is working now, by the moment | 06:08 |
| xubuntu94w | oh that is great after a terrible week | 06:09 |
| xubuntu94w | thank you guys :D hope you have a great time :D | 06:11 |
| ObrienDave | most welcome | 06:11 |
| slani | hello. after update 15.04 my sound stop working (hp elitebook 8530p). Can someone please help me? | 08:48 |
| xubuntu37d | test | 11:50 |
| slani_ | 1/wc | 12:43 |
| nigaa | hi | 16:31 |
| nigaa | is there anyone | 16:31 |
| cfhowlett | nigaa, change your nick. | 16:32 |
| LiverWurst | hello | 21:01 |
| LiverWurst | xubuntu is essentially the same as ubuntu but the wm correct? | 21:02 |
| pleia2 | no, in addition to coming with a different desktop manager (and window manager), it also ships with different default applications | 21:04 |
| ObrienDave | but just about anything taht runs un Ubuntu will run in Xubuntu | 21:05 |
| ObrienDave | *that | 21:05 |
| pleia2 | yeah, pretty much | 21:05 |
| pleia2 | Xubuntu and Ubuntu share software repositories, so everything is installable in both | 21:05 |
| ObrienDave | dang, fat fingers today ;P | 21:05 |
| pleia2 | a Unity scope probably won't work ;) but LibreOffice will (using it as we speak!) | 21:06 |
| LiverWurst | thinking about putting it on the laptop and was wondering if i could use the ati drivers that you can download for ubuntu | 21:06 |
| pleia2 | oh yeah, that kind of stuff is all the same | 21:06 |
| LiverWurst | ok great | 21:06 |
| ObrienDave | i'm running a laptop with Intel drivers. works fine here | 21:06 |
| LiverWurst | other than surfing web, netflix and google play, i might try to get STO working on it with wine | 21:07 |
| LiverWurst | star trek online | 21:07 |
| ObrienDave | you'll probably be better off going for the dual boot | 21:08 |
| LiverWurst | nah..im trying to move away from windows | 21:09 |
| ObrienDave | well, wine will never do as well performance wise, | 21:09 |
| LiverWurst | running fedora 22 on it right now and i feel like it runs a little clunky | 21:09 |
| LiverWurst | i know | 21:10 |
| LiverWurst | the reason im choosing xubuntu is specifically for the ati driver and i dont want unity | 21:11 |
| ObrienDave | Unity is the reason most of us chose Xubuntu ;P | 21:11 |
| LiverWurst | heh | 21:11 |
| knome | ObrienDave, ummm... | 21:11 |
| LiverWurst | ok dd is done..thanks for the info | 21:12 |
| ObrienDave | welcome | 21:12 |
