| devslash_ | hi | 04:51 |
| devslash_ | is 16.04 stable enough to upgrade now | 04:51 |
| lotuspsychje | devslash_: clean installs are rocksolid | 04:51 |
| lotuspsychje | devslash_: you can try the sudo do-release-upgrade -d if you cant wait any longer | 04:52 |
| devslash_ | id be doing an upgrade not clean install | 04:53 |
| lotuspsychje | devslash_: and backup before you upgrade | 04:53 |
| iMadper | Many users complain to me our ubuntu16.04 daily build can not be installed on skylake systems. Any chance to enable i915.preliminary_hw_support=1 by default? | 05:02 |
| dax | that parameter isn't needed for linux 4.4, which xenial has | 05:04 |
| iMadper | dax: I just tested'd it on thinkpad x1c 4rd. The param is still needed. | 05:05 |
| * iMadper let me remove it and reboot to test it again. | 05:05 | |
| dax | skylake support was removed from preliminary in 4.3. if you still need it, that wouldn't match my skylake testing results | 05:05 |
| * iMadper oooops... | 05:06 | |
| iMadper | dax: Yeah, you are right... | 05:07 |
| dax | okay good, was hoping there wasn't yet another skylake complication to worry about :) | 05:07 |
| lotuspsychje | some nice skylake news on phoronix.com also :p | 05:09 |
| dax | the mjg59 thing or...? | 05:13 |
| dax | 'cause if so, that's only on mobile thankfully. plus i got it straight from mjg59's blog feed :) | 05:13 |

| lotuspsychje | syth: did you do it the mainline way now? | 05:25 |
| syth | Yes | 05:25 |
| lotuspsychje | great! | 05:25 |
| lotuspsychje | syth: you have anything that doesnt work by default on 4.4 perhaps? | 05:26 |
| syth | Nope ,everything i use works fine | 05:26 |
| lotuspsychje | syth: why goto 4.6 then? | 05:27 |
| syth | I like minor updates :^) | 05:27 |

| arca_vorago | Upgraded to 16.04, lightdm no longer starting on boot. Once I login and "sudo systemctl start lightdm" all is well though. Suggested course of action? | 13:27 |
| k1l | what tells dmesg or syslog about the video drivers or other issues? | 13:28 |

| k1l | any errors about video drivers? | 13:36 |
| k1l | wait, is this s kubuntu? | 13:36 |
| brainwash | arca_vorago: the service is enabled tho | 13:37 |
| brainwash | arca_vorago: check "journalctl -b -u lightdm" | 13:37 |
| arca_vorago | It started out as a normal 15.04 install, at some point I installed kde and it started saying kubuntu... not sure why | 13:37 |
| brainwash | arca_vorago: there are logs in /var/log/lightdm also | 13:38 |
| k1l | arca_vorago: kubuntu/kde needs the ssdm since 15.10 | 13:38 |
| lotuspsychje | BluesKaj: your ssdm issue related to ^ ? | 13:39 |
| arca_vorago | https://ghostbin.com/paste/d7ruw | 13:39 |
| arca_vorago | ssdm? | 13:39 |
| k1l | *sddm | 13:40 |
| k1l | that is the *dm for kde now | 13:40 |
| arca_vorago | I don't use kde, it's just installed, and sddm is installed | 13:41 |
| BluesKaj | arca_vorago, sddm is needed, it should be installed by default in 16.04 , drop to a VT/TTY (ctrl+alt+F1-F6) and login at the prompt , then run , sudo systemctl enable sddm , then sudo systemctl start sddm, then reboot | 13:43 |
| brainwash | why reboot? | 13:43 |
| arca_vorago | any reason I cant just do "sudo systemctl enable sddm" from a normal term? | 13:44 |
| brainwash | you can | 13:44 |
| BluesKaj | weel if you have a desktop then do so , ar | 13:44 |
| brainwash | I thought he wants to fix his lightdm | 13:45 |
| brainwash | so, disabling sddm would be the way to go (in case it's enabled) | 13:45 |
| BluesKaj | brainwash, he's on kde/kubuntu , sddm is the defualt DM | 13:45 |
| brainwash | "It started out as a normal 15.04 install, at some point I installed kde and it started saying kubuntu... not sure why" | 13:46 |
| brainwash | I see no reason why lightdm should not work anymore | 13:46 |
| BluesKaj | brainwash, lightdm was probly removed during the install | 13:47 |
| brainwash | he is able to start it manually | 13:47 |
| brainwash | well, let's see if he returns.. | 13:48 |
| arca_vorago | Ok, rebooted, when I tried to start sddm its exiting with a dependency error | 13:49 |
| BluesKaj | arca_vorago, ok then login with ligtdm or the VT , with the VT startx to get to the desktop | 13:50 |
| arca_vorago | already logged in via lightdm | 13:51 |
| BluesKaj | arca_vorago, updating and upgrading might bring in the required dependenies | 13:52 |
| arca_vorago | Already fully updated/upgraded | 13:52 |
| arca_vorago | maybe remove sddm and reinstall | 13:52 |
| * BluesKaj shrugs, well, that's your call | 13:53 | |
| === PaulW2U_ is now known as PaulW2U | ||
| arca_vorago | ok, it's asking to pick sddm or lightdm, which is suggested? | 13:53 |
| arca_vorago | keep in mind for some reason my system thinks its a kubuntu install | 13:54 |
| BluesKaj | arca_vorago, did you install kubuntu-desktop or plasma-desktop ? | 13:54 |
| arca_vorago | plasma yeah | 13:55 |
| arca_vorago | I just like playing around with other dm/wms sometimes, have lots of em installed | 13:55 |
| BluesKaj | arca_vorago, then that expalins it | 13:55 |
| BluesKaj | expalins it, even | 13:55 |
| BluesKaj | :-) | 13:56 |
| arca_vorago | I was wondering what ex palins are, sounds scary | 13:56 |
| arca_vorago | Ok, gonna try this again after the reinstall | 13:56 |
| arca_vorago | brb | 13:56 |
| BluesKaj | typos = explains | 13:56 |
| wuzzi | bit of a problem... I think compiz is crashing. I am trying to run gnome-flashback amd when I do a "metacity --replace" the session crashes and I go back to lightdm. session runs fine but there is no window decorations. the flashback-compiz session just crashes. :( | 13:59 |
| arca_vorago | Thanks for all your help everyone. went to tty, disabled sddm, enabled lightdm, rebooted, all works. I guess for some reason both were trying to start so neither would work at boot, but since I knew lightdm was working and sddm wasnt that was my clue | 14:02 |
| DirtyCajun | what statement do i need to put in my release-upgrades to allow to upgrade to final beta? | 14:03 |
| BluesKaj | DirtyCajun, just run updates and upgrades and full-upgrade on the release day and you should be up to date to the official release on thursday | 14:40 |
| BluesKaj | asuming you have Xenial installed already | 14:41 |
| DirtyCajun | so apt-get update && apt-get upgrade && apt-get full-upgrade ? | 14:49 |
| k1l | sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade | 14:52 |
| k1l | (that only works now when no repo is failing due to weak signing) | 14:53 |
| DirtyCajun | right. | 15:31 |

| brianx | i'm having trouble finding the .desktop file for an app. i correctly installed something outside "Software" by unzipping it into a folder and running it. then i locked the icon to the Unity Launcher. where does this place the .desktop file? | 19:07 |
| chowder | Hey guys. I'm trying to install some stuff and I keep getting the same error: Bad header line [IP: 91.189.91.23 80] | 19:14 |
| chowder | are any of the repos frozen or is access limited until the release date? | 19:14 |
| chowder | not sure if the error could be on my end as that IP takes you to the Ubuntu security notices page | 19:15 |
| squinty | brianx, sudo updatedb -> locate .desktop | grep <app name> | 19:17 |
| brianx | squinty: that was an early attempt. nada. :-( | 19:17 |
| squinty | chowder: maybe try another mirror | 19:18 |
| brianx | does locking an icon to the launcher even create a .desktop? | 19:18 |
| squinty | brianx, you did run that first command (sudo updatedb)? if the desktop file was generated it should show up after updating the database | 19:20 |
| brianx | i ran the updatedb first. | 19:20 |
| brianx | squinty: after updatedb in a root shell, as me i also ran: grep -i cubemx `locate .desktop | grep "\.desktop$" | tail` | 19:23 |
| brianx | minus the tail. | 19:23 |
| brianx | minus the tail. works much better. tail was to keep my screen less cluttered by testing the `` program. :-| | 19:24 |
| chowder | squinty: how would I change mirrors? | 19:28 |
| squinty | chowder, bring Software and Updates | 19:29 |
| squinty | up | 19:29 |
| chowder | squinty: ok | 19:29 |
| chowder | Is it the "download from" field? | 19:29 |
| squinty | chowder: you should also see a provision for automatically setting the best server | 19:30 |
| brianx | thanks squinty. | 19:30 |
| chowder | squinty: awesome, thanks | 19:30 |
| squinty | brianx, yw wish I could offer more. fwiw, that second command you pasted doesn't seem to work here. will check it out a little later for myself :-) | 19:31 |
| brianx | squinty: grep -i executable `locate .desktop | grep "\.desktop$"` should be much more usable. | 19:32 |
| squinty | brianx, took your original paste and then subbed "thunderbird" for you cubemx weird lol | 19:33 |
| brianx | squinty: this search avoids the possibility that the app and the executable are not the same name, in my case i was 100% sure of the executable (because it's what i ran in my terminal) but not the app name | 19:33 |
| gregL | brianx, Look in usr/share applications | 19:34 |
| brianx | gregL: that is where it got created. :-) | 19:34 |
| gregL | brianx, Yes I have several custom launchers and I put them there.. | 19:36 |
| brianx | my issue turned out to be case. the file is STM32CubeMX.desktop and grep was for cubemx. then my better command had the |tail left on it by mistake. (also preventing a successful find) | 19:36 |
| squinty | brianx, hmm...weird it didn't find it then as partial names should be locate and you use grep -i to eliminate the capitals letters | 19:38 |
| brianx | i had left the |tail from testing (developed the command in steps) | 19:39 |
| squinty | brianx, ahhh.. :-) | 19:40 |
| satysin | hi | 20:28 |

| BluesKaj | satysin, official release is thursday | 20:29 |
| satysin | yeah but the RC was due on the 14th | 20:29 |
| satysin | yet it is still beta 2? | 20:30 |
| BluesKaj | yup, afaik | 20:30 |
| satysin | does that mean final release wont be on thursday? | 20:30 |
| teward | no | 20:30 |
| satysin | as they usually have a week of RC | 20:30 |
| BluesKaj | once installed there be will over 500 upgrades | 20:31 |
| satysin | ah | 20:31 |
| teward | ^ | 20:32 |
| teward | what BluesKaj said | 20:32 |
| BluesKaj | yeah i reinstalled beta 2 yesterday | 20:32 |
| teward | I reinstalled Xenial from a daily from last week - then updated - 250 updates. | 20:33 |
| teward | :P | 20:33 |
| satysin | how stable is the daily? | 20:33 |
| teward | well, none of my Xenials are in a production environment heh | 20:33 |
| * teward waits a bit after release to make sure major bugs get squished :P | 20:33 | |
| satysin | gonna install b2 then updates | 20:34 |
| satysin | cheers all | 20:34 |
| MoPac | Hello. I'm experiencing some pretty bad errors that I think are graphics-related with 16.04 Unity, and I'm not sure the best way of troubleshooting/reporting them. Example: in LibreOffice (5.1), dialog boxes have been rendering badly (garbled text, missing boxes, flashing, etc). And sometimes doing work in dialog boxes, like telling LO whether to recover a doc or not, crashes the *entire* session. | 20:50 |
| MoPac | example paste: https://paste.ubuntu.com/15920750/ | 20:50 |
| MoPac | so it's i915 -- I installed the stack through the Intel open source repository during 15.10 | 20:51 |

| rwong | same | 21:33 |
| rwong | i was waiting for RC for a not-so-important build environment :P | 21:33 |
| satysin | yeah I guess beta2 + the "partial upgrade" it prompts you to do is RC?? | 21:35 |
| satysin | strange no ISO tho | 21:35 |
| squinty | iso's of the daily builds are at http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ | 21:42 |
| satysin | yeah, wasnt sure if they were stable tho | 21:43 |

| ubottu | Ubuntu does not provide a distinct release candidate image. Instead during the week leading up to the release, each image is considered a release candidate. More details at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReleaseCandidate | 22:03 |
