| jalt | Hi, how do I fully disable avahi-daemon from a fresh 16.04 install? The obvious systemctl disable avahi-daemon did not work (x-posted from #ubuntu, since I got no replies and it's actually a xubuntu 16.04 fresh install). | 00:20 |
| nebg | jalt, why you want to disable avahi daemon ? | 00:22 |
| jalt | because i don't need zeroconf | 00:22 |
| nebg | what does it odo ? | 00:22 |
| nebg | does avahi daemon only do zeroconf ? | 00:22 |
| nebg | what's that ? | 00:23 |
| jalt | yes, and it's a protocol apple came up for mDNS | 00:23 |
| jalt | it manages .local | 00:23 |
| LazyUser69 | Anyone find systrays preferable to indicator icons? | 00:59 |
| jalt | Answering my own question for future reference: the only way to disable avahi-daemon is to remove and purge the package. There really is no other way because of socket activation and dbus. | 01:43 |
| kgb | o/ guys i'm not going to #ubuntu, but has the issue been brought up - if anybody knows?.. the web page has *not* been updated: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes (There is no page /link for upgrading "from 15.10 to 16.04") | 04:02 |
| kgb | ?? | 04:03 |
| kgb | .. um, yea - the page is there, just no update on the main: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XenialUpgrades | 04:06 |
| kgb | :f | 04:07 |
| kgb | .. guess that I should edit the page, what do you think? o.0 | 04:08 |
| kgb | by the time i configure oracle vm & unpack a windows.. and put dreamweaver & get to editing; it'll probably be done 10-times-over? xD | 04:12 |
| xubuntu02w | Does anyone know how to update to the latest version of gnupg? | 04:26 |
| xubuntu02w | I tried sudo apt-get install gnupg2 and it says that I already have the newest version (2.1.11) | 04:27 |
| xubuntu02w | But when I try to enable enigmail in Thunderbird, I receive an error message that I have version 1.4.20 and need to update. | 04:28 |
| xubuntu02w | What am I missing? | 04:28 |
| kgb | xubuntu02w: xenial 16.04? | 04:33 |
| xubuntu02w | Yes | 04:33 |
| kgb | blah, I remember always being some *problem* with the versions /which software 2 actually get for enigmail /thunderbird :f | 04:36 |
| xubuntu02w | Yeah, I'm new to email encryption. I've followed some guides online, but cannot seem to get gnupg to work properly with thunderbird | 04:37 |
| xubuntu02w | Or maybe it's enigmail which is causing the issue. | 04:37 |
| kgb | just, hang on please... someone who knows more should say it better (than me :)) | 04:38 |
| kgb | xubuntu02w: in the meantime, something to -perhaps- better manage any ppa that could need?.. http://www.webupd8.org/2013/10/y-ppa-manager-0991-released-with-ubuntu.html (https://launchpad.net/y-ppa-manager) :) | 04:42 |
| kgb | *which you may need | 04:43 |
| xubuntu02w | Thanks I will check that out | 04:44 |
| kgb | xubuntu02w: maybe, for example, if you had added a ppa - when messing with the gnupg/2 versions - which you wanna ppa-purge | 04:53 |
| xubuntu02w | In that case, what would be the command for purging the unneeded ppa? | 04:56 |
| kgb | xubuntu02w: ah i fell asleep at they keyboard, need to gtho, lol.. if it was manually added, then look for the name used 4 example: history | grep add-apt-repository | 05:41 |
| kgb | *in order to ppa-purge it | 05:41 |
| kgb | http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YgYZlIzBjaM/TsZEjMHsC4I/AAAAAAAADTM/I51ZIkVgZ30/s1600/Selection_621.png and in case of the Y PPA MANAGER: it's in the GUI, under "Manage PPAs". :) | 05:44 |
| xubuntu02w | Thanks | 05:45 |
| kgb | hope it helps.. just someone needs to speak up about what enigmail should be using for encryption w/thunderbird :DD | 05:47 |
| subscious | hey there. When I close my lid and open it up again my mousecursor disappears on xubuntu 16.04. Is this a known bug? will it be adressed? | 06:06 |
| subscious | the same thing happens when I lock the display with ctrl+alt+del | 06:07 |
| subscious | brb | 06:07 |
| subscious | this is really anoying. As of now I have to log out or kill the xserver loosing all my open progress. Is there maybe something else I can do to regain the cursor? | 06:12 |
| puckz | Hi all! Xubuntu 16.04... after returning from locked screen I don't see the mouse pointer. Any solution? | 06:31 |
| Unit193 | puckz: Does it work to flip to TTY1 and back to 7? | 06:35 |
| puckz | Unit193: Sorry, how do I flip between TTY's? :-) | 06:37 |
| Unit193 | !tty | 06:37 |
| ubottu | To get to the TTY terminals 1-6, use the keystroke ctrl + alt + F1-F6 respectively (Alt+F7 will get you back to your graphical login). To change the resolution for your TTY, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ChangeTTYResolution | 06:37 |
| puckz | Unit193: It works! Thanks a zillion! | 06:38 |
| Unit193 | Sure thing, doc. | 06:38 |
| flocculant | puckz: 1568604 | 06:45 |
| flocculant | meh bug 1568604 | 06:45 |
| ubottu | bug 1568604 in xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) "Mouse cursor lost when unlocking with Intel graphics" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1568604 | 06:45 |
| flocculant | 3 methods there to get the cursor back - one stops it occurring | 06:46 |
| Unit193 | Knew that had to be somewhere. | 06:47 |
| flocculant | :) | 06:47 |
| flocculant | like on the notes ... | 06:47 |
| tombgi | just had a fun time getting xubuntu installed alongside windows 10 | 11:47 |
| tombgi | could only boot into xubuntu at first, then grub-customizer saved the day | 11:48 |
| tombgi | but then couldn't get the grub menu to respond to more than one keypress after that | 11:48 |
| tombgi | so could scroll to another OS but not enter into it | 11:49 |
| tombgi | weirdly, grub console still worked fine and i could use that to boot into other OSes | 11:49 |
| tombgi | still looking into it | 11:49 |
| nikolam | haven't tried w10, but in my previous life, I always used to install windows first and any linux next | 11:49 |
| tombgi | yeah, i did the same thing | 11:50 |
| nikolam | with my current life and adding new linux disk to the system that already had W8 dual boot, I must say Windows generally sucs | 11:50 |
| tombgi | usually had good experiences with it | 11:50 |
| tombgi | with installing alongside, not good experiences with windows | 11:50 |
| nikolam | I suppose one needs to first recover with windows (Used to use /fixboot /fixmbr in windows recover boot) and then to recover linux boot form live cd | 11:51 |
| tombgi | i'm not sure what happened at first | 11:51 |
| tombgi | windows wasn't showing up in the grub menu | 11:51 |
| tombgi | just had to readd it | 11:51 |
| nikolam | so since no experience with w10.. I just had to vent it :P | 11:51 |
| tombgi | so i can boot into either now | 11:51 |
| tombgi | haha, fair enough | 11:52 |
| tombgi | i just have to boot into linux through the grub2 command prompt | 11:52 |
| tombgi | not too tricky though | 11:52 |
| nikolam | update-grub I suppose should finde widnozes, too | 11:52 |
| nikolam | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 11:52 |
| nikolam | but depends what windows itself winds as it's problem with, maybe new disk config etc | 11:53 |
| tombgi | mm idk | 11:57 |
| xubuntu19w | hello, I'm trying to install linux on a laptop but everytime I boot after the logo shows, the screen goes black and stays like that | 13:53 |
| flocculant | xubuntu19w: without knowing more about the laptop - are you talking about booting with the livecd or usb? | 13:56 |
| flocculant | if so - reboot - hit any key when you see the kbd/man logo at the bottom, F6, choose nomodeset then enter | 13:57 |
| xubuntu19w | it's a usb | 13:57 |
| flocculant | k - try that | 13:57 |
| xubuntu19w | ok let me try | 13:57 |
| xubuntu19w | it's a compaq 6715b | 13:58 |
| xubuntu19w | 2gb ram | 13:58 |
| xubuntu19w | amd sempron 4000+ | 13:58 |
| xubuntu19w | ok, I've chosen nomodeset but it stays there | 14:03 |
| flocculant | pressed enter? | 14:03 |
| xubuntu19w | there's only an "X" next to it | 14:03 |
| xubuntu19w | yes | 14:03 |
| flocculant | mmm | 14:03 |
| flocculant | is this 16.04? | 14:04 |
| xubuntu19w | do I need to exit out of the f6 menu after I've selected | 14:04 |
| xubuntu19w | ? | 14:04 |
| xubuntu19w | yes 16.04 | 14:04 |
| flocculant | just a sec | 14:04 |
| flocculant | yea sorry | 14:05 |
| flocculant | once selected - escape - then enter :) | 14:05 |
| xubuntu19w | ok | 14:05 |
| flocculant | xubuntu19w: is it booting now? | 14:07 |
| xubuntu19w | so far it's showing the logo | 14:07 |
| xubuntu19w | and now the screen has gone black | 14:07 |
| xubuntu19w | same as before | 14:07 |
| flocculant | give it a minute | 14:07 |
| xubuntu19w | alright | 14:08 |
| xubuntu19w | thanks for the help | 14:08 |
| xubuntu19w | I appreciate it | 14:08 |
| flocculant | don't know an awful lot about ati/amd gpu's - which that appears to have | 14:08 |
| xubuntu19w | yes, it's an ati | 14:08 |
| flocculant | yup | 14:08 |
| xubuntu19w | I tried to download some drivers through the f4 option but it doesn't give me that option | 14:09 |
| flocculant | shouildn't need to do anything like that | 14:10 |
| xubuntu19w | I've tried different distros | 14:11 |
| flocculant | and same issue? | 14:11 |
| xubuntu19w | but all come to the same black screen after the logo | 14:11 |
| flocculant | mmm | 14:11 |
| xubuntu19w | I've even tried the lightest ones | 14:11 |
| flocculant | xubuntu19w: when you say you've tried different distros - is that recently? | 14:12 |
| xubuntu19w | yes | 14:12 |
| flocculant | or in the past? | 14:12 |
| xubuntu19w | these past few days | 14:12 |
| flocculant | what have you tried? | 14:12 |
| xubuntu19w | linux mint, elementary, ubuntu mint, lubuntu, chomium | 14:13 |
| xubuntu19w | I've even format the hard disk and reinstalled windows | 14:15 |
| xubuntu19w | with all the drivers updated | 14:15 |
| flocculant | that'd make no difference :) | 14:15 |
| xubuntu19w | lol ok | 14:16 |
| xubuntu19w | I can't figure out what it is | 14:16 |
| flocculant | xubuntu19w: not finding much - but just got in from work - but http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2306298&p=13406734#post13406734 tends to point towards noapci and nolapic | 14:17 |
| xubuntu19w | ok, so I should choose those and try | 14:17 |
| flocculant | which are both options in the F6 menu where nomodeset was | 14:17 |
| flocculant | not even sure what they are tbh - have a look at http://askubuntu.com/questions/52096/what-do-the-different-boot-options-mean-i-e-acpi-off-noapic-nolapic-etc | 14:18 |
| xubuntu19w | I'll try them | 14:18 |
| flocculant | I would | 14:18 |
| flocculant | at least to try and get the livesession booted :) | 14:18 |
| xubuntu19w | sure thing | 14:19 |
| xubuntu19w | I appreciate it | 14:19 |
| flocculant | welcome :) | 14:19 |
| xubuntu19w | I'm trying now, I've even cleaned the ventilation shaft, it was full. Now the fan runs smoothly | 14:22 |
| xubuntu19w | it didn't work, same black screen | 14:24 |
| michael_ | hi, are some rpi users here? | 14:36 |
| flocculant | xubuntu19w: mmm - sorry - not going to be much here now | 14:36 |
| flocculant | wait around maybe and see if anyone lurking has some idea | 14:38 |
| michael_ | no raspberry users here? | 15:02 |
| flocculant | michael_: even if there are - you'd have to get support elsewhere I'm afraid - not supported in this channel | 15:04 |
| michael_ | flocculant, any idea on what channel? | 15:05 |
| flocculant | michael_: could try #raspberrypi | 15:08 |
| flocculant | other than that - not a clue I'm afraid | 15:08 |
| flocculant | https://ubuntu-pi-flavour-maker.org/ | 15:08 |
| flocculant | there is an xubuntu image - but it's not supported | 15:09 |
| michael_ | if xubuntu, lubuntu and ubutu-mate are based on the same, then all these images got the same bug with audio via hdmi on the rpi. are they based on the same? | 15:11 |
| flocculant | michael_: I'd imagine so - almost all the *buntu things are based on the same | 15:12 |
| flocculant | but couldn't be positive about it | 15:12 |
| michael_ | because, on xbian i have no problems with that, also kernel 4.4.x ... ah, ok :( | 15:12 |
| flocculant | but ask one of the other *buntu which is supported :) | 15:12 |
| michael_ | ok, thanks for help :) | 15:13 |
| michael_ | bye | 15:13 |
| tsaavik | I think I figured out why editable accelerators are not working, nothing I change in the apperance menu has any effect (I changed style and nothing happens) | 15:30 |
