[01:43] <csgeek> hello all
[01:44] <csgeek> having some issues running 16.04 with the nvidia drivers.  I was wondering if anyone could give me a hand.
[01:51] <Blake> Could anyone help me with my printer drivers? I am sure that there is a PPA for it. My scanner is working under Simple Scan.
[01:54] <Blake> Anyone?
[01:55] <Blake> I got Canon ImageCLASS MF4700 Series but under Simple Scan it is listed as Canon i-SENSYS MF4700 Series.
[02:14] <UserUS> has anyone upgraded from 14 to 16/
[02:14] <UserUS> ?

[02:23] <Oderus> hi. anyone know how to make window decorations for kubuntu 16.04 or how i could go about making a theme? Thanks in advance.
[05:02] <syth> Final releases dosent have major changes ryt?
[05:03] <lotuspsychje> syth: we not in final yet
[05:03] <lotuspsychje> syth: and a lot of new changes in xenial already
[05:04] <syth> Yes ,i installed 16.04 + updated kernel to 4.6 r3
[05:05] <lotuspsychje> syth: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XenialXerus/ReleaseNotes
[05:05] <syth> I saw
[05:05] <SwedeMike> syth: 16.04 is currently in last phases of testing etc, so no, if 16.04 works for you now, then the final 16.04 release won't have much changes.
[05:06] <syth> Yeah ,thats why i asked
[05:06] <lotuspsychje> SwedeMike: still few changes to come..like launcher to bottom setting in unity control center
[05:06] <syth> But these sound very minor
[05:07] <lotuspsychje> alot of stuff fixed under the hood
[05:07] <syth> 4 days for final release
[05:07] <SwedeMike> lotuspsychje: I seem to recall seeing an email that 16.04 was in frozen state?
[05:08] <syth> You know what frozen means? SwedeMike
[05:08] <lotuspsychje> SwedeMike: yes, but that doesnt mean nothing will change
[05:08] <lotuspsychje> SwedeMike: even after final you will receive updates right
[05:09] <SwedeMike> lotuspsychje: sre.
[05:09] <SwedeMike> sure.
[05:09] <SwedeMike> syth: it usually means any changes will have to pass some kind of person for approval before it goes in.
[05:10] <lotuspsychje> SwedeMike: and found bugs after final, will also get fixed when critical
[05:10] <syth> Development hault at a certain stage
[05:13] <lotuspsychje> http://lotuspsychje.deviantart.com/
[05:13] <lotuspsychje> my xenial boxes
[05:15] <SwedeMike> lotuspsychje: I never said nothing would change. I said "won't have much changes".
[05:15] <SwedeMike> lotuspsychje: bug fixes happen until release is end of support, that is well known.
[05:16] <lotuspsychje> SwedeMike: no sweat mate
[05:16] <SwedeMike> but I would imagine syth wondered about major visible changes.
[05:16] <syth> Yeah
[05:16] <lotuspsychje> not all changes are visible
[05:16] <lotuspsychje> xenial still looks like trusty right
[05:16] <syth> Thats true
[05:16] <lotuspsychje> but under the hood many stuff worked on
[05:17] <lotuspsychje> newer package versions etc
[05:17] <lotuspsychje> unity8 installable by default, we dont have seen neither yet
[05:19] <lotuspsychje> snapcraft recently joined xenial
[05:19] <lotuspsychje> newer visible package icons in gnome-software have been worked on
[05:21] <lotuspsychje> new wallpapers been added
[05:23] <lotuspsychje> launcher to bottom setting have been added to unity-tweak-tool
[05:24] <lotuspsychje> system updates showing in notifiocation area
[05:25] <lotuspsychje> safe to unmount media warnings in notification area added
[05:26] <lotuspsychje> faster dash experience
[05:26] <lotuspsychje> faster gnome-software
[05:34] <SwedeMike> I wish there was a supported procedure to upgrade from 32bit to 64bit system without re-install.
[05:34] <SwedeMike> ... and that was user friendly.
[05:35] <lotuspsychje> SwedeMike: i hear 32bit iso's are going to fade away
[05:41] <lotuspsychje> SwedeMike: http://askubuntu.com/questions/5018/is-it-possible-to-upgrade-from-a-32bit-to-a-64bit-installation
[05:43] <SwedeMike> lotuspsychje: I can also google. I have read 5-8 guides. None of them are safe or user friendly.
[05:43] <SwedeMike> I tried this on debian 5-8 years back and failed, twice.
[05:45] <lotuspsychje> SwedeMike: yeah i guess its not really recommended either
[05:47] <SwedeMike> but yes, no reason to run 32bit nowadays, 64bit works well. Back in 2010, there were still some software that wasn't available in 64bit and caused headaches
[05:47] <lotuspsychje> yep
[05:49] <syth> Need some help here
[05:49] <lotuspsychje> syth: shoot
[05:50] <syth> I installed 4.6 rc3 but its modules were not installed properly so it didn't boot so i thought I'll  delete it  via synaptic but it dosent show 4.6 kernel version in the list
[05:52] <syth> http://imgur.com/aEBEqZI
[05:55] <SwedeMike> syth: how did you install it?
[05:57] <syth> I downloaded tarball extracted  and compiled
[05:57] <syth> Then i did update grub
[05:58] <SwedeMike> syth: that doesn't install any package, so you can't remove it that way.
[05:59] <SwedeMike> if you did make install from a regular linux kernel tarball
[06:00] <syth> Oh yeah see this
[06:00] <syth> http://imgur.com/VajdduT
[06:01] <syth> SwedeMike but it says current kernel version is 4.5.1
[06:02] <syth> So how do i remove skeleton of my 4.6 kernel ?
[06:06] <syth> SwedeMike http://imgur.com/8SIZieF
[06:07] <SwedeMike> you need to edit the grub config. You've installed kernel in non-ubuntu way so you need to remove it using non-ubuntu way.
[06:13] <syth> Damn the kernel 4.5.1 doesn't even show as installed but when i run uname -r it shows 4.5.1
[06:13] <syth> What should i do now
[06:13] <SwedeMike> you need to understand how grub works.
[06:13] <SwedeMike> and how to configure it.
[06:14] <SwedeMike> and what happens when you do "make install" on a linux kernel tarball
[06:14] <syth> Can you link me something?
[06:14] <lotuspsychje> !mainline
[06:16] <SwedeMike> syth: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/198003/set-default-kernel-in-grub
[06:21] <syth> I'll try installing modules again, hoping it works
[06:55] <syth> What does this mean?http://imgur.com/3OrRNi6
[07:28] <DiamondSword> hello.. I want to ask about Linux at general.. recently I switched to Ubuntu and decided to use Linux anymore. but, I tried many Linux distros (ubuntu, mint, debiand and their different desktop environments)
[07:29] <DiamondSword> my computer was working better with Windows! from the day I installed Linux, laptop's fans are always on and working hard.
[07:29] <DiamondSword> I have high temperature problems which I rarely had on Windows.
[07:29] <DiamondSword> what about it? please talk to me
[08:11] <brianx> this is the beta channel, you may be looking for #ubuntu.
[08:11] <brianx> DiamondSword:
[11:38] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[12:04] <lotuspsychje> !zfs
[12:06] <gregf> lotuspsychje: this doesn't really answer my question
[12:07] <gregf> i was under the impression zfs was a install option on 16.04 and its not the filesystem list when I go to install it
[12:07] <gregf> maybe I miss understood though
[12:07] <lotuspsychje> gregf: for what i understand of it, 16.04 would have better support for zfs..not sure of the procedure myself
[12:11] <BluesKaj> gregf, http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2016/02/zfs-filesystem-will-be-built-into-ubuntu-16-04-lts-by-default/
[12:13] <gregf> ok so  you still gotta manually make your zpools and deb-bootstrap it
[12:13] <BluesKaj> zfs afaik is mainly meant for using containers like docker etc , if you don't intend to use contaibers then there's not much of an advanatage
[12:16] <lotuspsychje> :p
[12:19] <BluesKaj> if ubuntu 16.04 id going to force users to use a zfs parition, that makes the install process more irregular than other OSs and perhaps complicate matters for support .
[12:19] <BluesKaj> scuse the typos , once again
[12:44] <Break_> Hey guys. When I try to install Ubuntu 16.04 Daily build (DL yesterday) it goes almost to the end and then an installer disappears. When trying to boot nothing happens. Any tips?
[12:45] <lotuspsychje> Break_: try again with a beta2 iso or so
[12:45] <lotuspsychje> Break_: until final, things can still break
[12:45] <Break_> I am not sure if I can install Beta 2 and do an upgrade to latest daily build? Beta 2 installs fine but I would like to test the DB if possible.
[12:46] <lotuspsychje> Break_: you can update the beta2 to current
[12:46] <lotuspsychje> !final | Break_
[12:47] <Break_> aha ok will try that.
[12:47] <Break_> thx
[14:58] <Mneuro> Is anyone running Steam on 16.04?  Do you get an error when launching steam that it is "out of date"?
[15:05] <syth> Anyone installed 4.6 r3 ?
[15:08] <syth> Mneuro I'll install now
[15:09] <Mneuro> syth thanks
[15:25] <syth> Mneuro what kernel version are u on ?
[15:26] <syth> 21 April syth waiting
[15:36] <syth> Steam is not opening!!
[15:37] <syth> I want it fixed on 21 <•_•>
[16:18] <k1l_> syth: start steam from a terminal and see what the problem is
[16:18] <k1l_> btw, it works here
[16:27] <fenix_peregrino> Hey guys has someone installed Ubuntu 16.04 already?
[16:28] <k1l_> some have
[16:28] <fenix_peregrino> It should be available by now, it 17.04...that why Im asking
[16:28] <fenix_peregrino> is it convenient to install it?
[16:28] <fenix_peregrino> is it safe?
[16:29] <k1l_> fenix_peregrino: release date is 21.4.
[16:29] <k1l_> and if you need to ask, then dont install non-final releases
[16:30] <fenix_peregrino> k1l_: ok perfect, how can I be updated about this releases? and information in general?
[16:32] <k1l_> fenix_peregrino: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-announce/
[16:35] <fenix_peregrino> k1l_: ¡Thanks!
[16:59] <rud0lf> hi, ubuntu sometimes (per session) doesn't show applications menu.. how do i fix it, at last temporary way?
[17:01] <rud0lf> never mind, found it on google
[17:26] <Mneuro> syth: if you're still here, I installed the newest daily of 16.04 and the steam issue went away
[17:26] <Mneuro> :)
[18:04] <syth> Nice
[18:05] <syth> I installed 4.6 rc3 kernel
[18:05] <syth> SwedeMike its done
[18:05] <syth> Just installed modules correctly
[18:41] <Kaloryfer> Hello. After one of last updates I see no installed apps in "Software"
[21:25] <ThePendulum> 'lo
[21:26] <ThePendulum> Anyone experienced issues with a dual screen setup? My 2nd Dell is very briefly reporting an error saying "Input timing is not supported", or something along those lines, and the screen remains black
[21:29] <ThePendulum> Chrome is also having multiple personality disorder it seems http://i.imgur.com/EKmIbpQ.png
[21:38] <ThePendulum> So fglrx has been replaced with amdgpu apparently, but I can't find either
[21:38] <k1l> ThePendulum: xserver-xorg-video-amdgpu
[21:39] <ThePendulum> k1l: thanks, let me see if I can get further with that
[21:42] <ThePendulum_> any way to enable or configure that?
[21:43] <k1l> configure what?
[21:43] <ThePendulum_> amdgpu or radeon, I'm not sure what's going on, it seems like the 2nd display is working fine according to Ubuntu, but the display itself says it's getting the wrong signal
[21:44] <k1l> its a kernel driver now. you dont need to install it. the kernel should load it when needed.
[21:44] <k1l> see the monitor settings in your desktops systemsettings
[21:44] <ThePendulum_> there's not really an awful lot there to tweak
[21:46] <ThePendulum_> even when mirrored one works and the other doesn't
[21:48] <ThePendulum_> meh, I wonder whether this issue persists with the release
[21:58] <ThePendulum_> woo I got it to work, let me see
[22:01] <ThePendulum_> Does anyone happen to know where the various display modes xrandr shows are actually configured?
[22:05] <ThePendulum_> really weird it's just 1 display having trouble
[22:11] <TJ-> ThePendulum_: in memory
[22:11] <ThePendulum_> right
[22:12] <ThePendulum_> well this is inconvenient
[22:12] <TJ-> ThePendulum_: X RandR auto-configures with the best resolution. Depending on the session/desktop, the settings may be retained in a file under $HOME/.config/ or similar
[22:13] <ThePendulum_> hmwell, I'd have to configure it to use one of the lower res modes, which I'm not going to do
[22:13] <ThePendulum_> I have no idea why it just goes black
[23:27] <ubuntu488> I'm starting to get a bit... impatient. Since I still feel I should wait till it finishes, does the current build seem to have any real issues?
