[00:33] back by popular demand :) [00:36] on the subject of inputs; I am using a trackball which is about to fold... will soon need a replacement but before I buy, want to know if I'll be able to reconfigure its buttons to work under xubuntu. Is there an app or a kernel module I'll need to use for that? [00:43] does anyone know which version of XFCE comes with 16.04 by default? [01:39] hey guys, I'm trying to install wine on Xubuntu 15.10 and I get this error http://pastebin.com/L9HsSVNC [01:40] 4th error of the day. This is disappointing. [01:42] this is what happens when i follow through the dependencies, this is ridiculous http://pastebin.com/VZHxspZg [01:45] a google search shows that this is a dependency issues no-one's going to fix. [01:57] hello? === littlebunnyfufu is now known as SonikkuAmerica [04:33] hi [04:33] I solemnly accept the terms. [04:34] Not sure if I'm in the right place... but I'm a bit scared. [04:34] The command lvdisplay /dev/my-vg returns nothing... [04:37] pvs returns the correct volumes [04:38] The LV might be corrupted, but I don't know how/when this might have happened. [04:38] The drive is never mounted anyway. === dreamon_ is now known as dreamon === nikolam_ is now known as nikolam [08:02] hello [08:04] I am using the beta of 16.04 and it seems that I get no audio with headphones at all with hda-intel [08:17] ! Xenial [08:17] Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial Xerus) will be the 24th release of Ubuntu. It is due to be released on April 21st. Discussion in #ubuntu+1 [08:20] Hello, It's very important. How to ugrade usb-modeswitch to 2.2.1 in ubuntu/xubuntu 14.04 [09:02] czeslaw: It's 2.2.5 in the repo already. At least in wily [09:02] czeslaw: Are you using Wily? [09:03] Oh, I missed wher eyou mentioned 14.04 [09:05] yes 14.04 [09:05] any ideas? [09:06] czeslaw: Here is the Wily package. https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/wily/+source/usb-modeswitch [09:06] czeslaw: Download and install it. Check the deps [09:06] but how to install it [09:06] I use gdebi [09:06] You can use dpkg [09:07] i did but some package is missing [09:07] libjim0debian2 [09:07] You will need to resolve those manually. It's a Wiley package, after all. [09:07] czeslaw: So find out what is missing, track down that package, rinse and repeat [09:08] i couldnt find it :/ [09:13] Looks like that package wasn't carried over into Wiley. [09:15] You can grab usb-modeswitch from source and try to compile it, but you might consider upgrading to 15.04. It's the new LTS [09:16] 16.04? [09:16] 15.04 is not stable [09:16] im downloading [09:16] cause I CAN'T upgrade :/ [09:16] need to install again [09:17] czeslaw: What do yo mean by not stable? 15.04 is the current LTS, it's been out for awhile now. I haven't heard of any stability issues. [09:17] Enkidu_ak: wrong [09:18] 15.04 is NOT lts - in fact 15.04 is no longer supported at all [09:18] ! 15.04 | Enkidu_ak [09:18] Enkidu_ak: Ubuntu 15.04 (Vivid Vervet) was the 22nd release of Ubuntu. Support ended on February 4, 2016. See !eol, !eolupgrade and http://ubottu.com/y/vivid [09:18] Oh, my mistake. I stand corrected. [09:19] I still haven't heard of any stability issues with it, but I still recommend upgrading ot the current LTS, even if I don't know what that is currently :) [09:19] czeslaw: I assume you've seen the release notes with 14.04 to 16.04 upgrade currently broken - it does work via image - but I would not recommend doing it for a machine you must have working [09:20] so what now :/ [09:20] i need to instal usbmode switch newer [09:20] but cant find any help [09:21] ok brb in 1hour :/ [09:21] fuckit still need to go to windows porbably :/ [10:02] good morning! is anyone up on this horrible hour? [10:04] scubamike: well it is the internet and it's 11am here :p === me is now known as Guest4672 [11:14] Hi. [11:14] How to disable screenlock after suspension? [11:20] hi [11:20] it is better to instal 15.04 or 16.04 [11:21] i have a problem with usb_modeswitch [11:21] and problems to compile [11:21] on 14.04 [11:21] czeslaw, 15.04 is EOL, so not supported. [11:24] Can someone point me to a relatively foolproof way of getting the nVidia drivers to work - the laptop has an Intel 4600 and an nVidia GTX765M [11:27] moldor, the intel/nvidia hybrid combination isn't always trivial to get to work, so there likely isn't a very "foolproof" way [11:27] yes, this I have discovered... I wish I'd gone for an ATI chipset instead [11:28] There seems to me the sgfxi script(s) - which don't work, for me at least, and then the "debian way", which has its' own issues. [11:32] knome, I could always disable the Nvidia chipset, but the performance is better with it that without. Unfortunately it's using their Optimus technology which I don't believe Bumblebee has fully worked out yet. [11:33] i haven't got a very deep insight with optimus/bumblebee because i haven't used it myself [11:34] I'm beginning to regret this particular laptop purchase - next time ATI all the way (even if this one does have 32Gb RAM !!) [11:36] unfortunately indeed, you are limited in hardware choices if you want to be sure something works with linux [11:36] (that said, i'm sure your laptop will work much better in a year or two) [11:40] yes - well, it *does* run "that other OS" quite nicely, but that would be somewhat heretical. I actually wanted a Lenovo X1 Carbon, but they don't make them with enough RAM. [11:57] Ok, I've got this. You got to disable light-locker. [12:15] what means Launch Iron with parameter: ./iron --ppapi-flash-path=/usr/lib/adobe-flashplugin/libpepflashplayer.so --ppapi-flash-version=21.0.0.197?? [13:16] Hi there. Is it me or xubuntu 16.04 deletes xorg.conf at every boot [13:50] hi [13:51] I bought a new HDD, as my old one kept on giving error [13:51] but again I am getting same error [13:51] I will post the screen shot here [13:54] http://imgur.com/fn4iv75 [13:55] can any one guide me? [13:59] is there anyone ? [13:59] ravi, maybe ask at #ubuntu [13:59] OK, thank you [14:00] more people around and this is rather a less xubuntu related issue === exio4 is now known as init === init is now known as y === y is now known as hacker === hacker is now known as exio4 [15:17] Can I just dd an installation iso to a usb key the same as in debian, or does xubuntu do it differently? [15:19] WangDang, yes … no difference, debian and ubuntu both use hybrid images [15:20] Mrkramps: thanks. I was seeing alot of pages talking about Startup disk Creator in ubuntu so I wasn't sure [15:21] WangDang, this tool was intended to avoid using teminal … mostly interesting for beginners [15:21] mrkramps: thanks for the info [15:22] you're welcome === mnepton is now known as mneptok [17:36] $ sudo dpkg -i Downloads/chip-boot-repair.deb dpkg: error processing archive Downloads/chip-boot-repair.deb (--install): package architecture (i386) does not match system (amd64). Is it possible to install a 32 bit package on a 64 bit system? [17:38] Hmm, my post was truncated. I was showing the error I got trying to install a i386 package on an amd64 system [17:40] *buntu has had multiarch for a long time now. You must either be using a really old *buntu or else only have 64 bit arch enabled [17:41] It's xubuntu 14.04, how do I enable multiarch^ [17:41] but I'm working of a live cd if that matters [17:43] WangDang: What is the result of: apt-config dump | grep Architectures [17:44] ( don't forget to uppercae the A in Architectures ) [17:45] xubuntu@xubuntu:~$ apt-config dump | grep Architectures [17:45] APT::Architectures ""; [17:45] APT::Architectures:: "amd64"; [17:45] xubuntu@xubuntu:~$ [17:45] I'm reading up now on enabling multiarch [17:47] Basically... sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 [17:51] You'll need to do after that a sudo apt update [17:56] genii: thanks for the help :) [18:00] WangDang: Glad to assist :) === nikolam_ is now known as nikolam [20:27] right, anyone able to help me get LCD backlight plugin working? [21:25] found lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Mar 28 22:08 /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0 -> ../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/backlight/acpi_video0 and managed to change brightness, nothing happened so I think it the wrong video device [22:11] recon_dsk: I edit /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness to change the brightness [22:15] well_laid_lawn: I've only got /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness and when I modified it, it changed but the backlight did not. [22:16] recon_dsk: what sortof video card is it ? [22:16] GTX 980 [22:16] nvidia might work differently [22:16] think the os is changing the motherboard video card and not the dedicated one [22:18] hmm, nice directory loop in there as well [22:26] you could try using xrandr http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/254517/screen-brightness-100-with-proprietary-nvidia-driver [22:27] but two vid cards could make it tricky...
