[00:18] hi [00:25] * phillw sweeps carpet and sprays air freshener so that people do not wander in and immediately leave :) [01:17] http://fossbytes.com/movidius-fathom-brings-ai-stick-supercomputing-usb-drive/ [03:05] Why does my mouse keep freezing :( [03:11] anybody know of a good GPS module for the raspberry pi? [08:36] hi guys) I have extremely silly question [08:37] diplomat: don't ask to ask :-) === rw is now known as Guest6957 [08:38] I was playing around with appearance preferences -> font, how I can reset them to defaults? [08:40] I occasionally clicked on particular rendering methods, before it looked like all for methods were selected despite it's a single choice menu lol)) [08:45] qeeff [08:45] we [08:45] we [08:45] we [08:45] e [08:45] qwelf [08:45] come va? [08:54] I guess not that easy question) [08:55] Is there anyone here who uses either the compiz regular or static application switcher and has gotten the "Set background color" and "Background color" options to actually take effect? [08:55] Two separate installs on two different systems and I can't seem to get that one single option to actually work. [10:25] hi fnd [10:26] i want to download youtube videos. please tell me any downloader?? [11:21] hi [11:21] somebody online? === pavlushka is now known as pavlushka2 === pavlushka2 is now known as pavlushka === pavlushka is now known as z3ki === z3ki is now known as pavlushka [13:36] Hello. Good afternoon from Italy. [13:39] I'd like to know how to get rid of the "Welcome Panel" on a guest-session, meaning that it does not appear at all when someone connects to a guest-session. I have already copied a user file from a temp. account into etc/skel/... [16:57] hello, guys [17:00] hi Nosophorus [17:23] Holly Crap [17:25] flexiondotorg, you're gonna have to do some "exclusive interactive video conferences" now [17:25] congrats x) [17:26] ( Patreon is @ 1,007$ ) === pavlushka is now known as z4ki === z4ki is now known as pavlushka [17:58] Hello, I have a question about "Intel Graphics Installer for Linux" - when I run it [17:58] it complains "Distribution not supported" [17:58] kidtwisted, did you try the automatic driver install from the Welcome Splash screen? [17:58] (hi) [17:59] no not yet [17:59] You should start with that I think [17:59] It's in Welcome -> Getting Started [17:59] Ubuntu mate has a welcome screen junk? [17:59] * Akuli moves to devuan [17:59] bye Akuli =) [18:00] thanks [18:05] Is there any way to tell that mate's running on a raspberry pi rather than another arm device? === Guest6957 is now known as randyw|away [18:09] tgm4883, I suppose output of the "lshw" command must be rather unique on a rpi [18:35] I'm amazed, my example code passed flake8 :D [18:35] oops wrong channel :) [18:46] flake8 = [18:46] http://gjcp.net/~gordonjcp/sun.jpg [18:46] ^ transit of Mercury [18:47] http://gjcp.net/~gordonjcp/science.jpg <- "hello I would like to science too please" === denis is now known as Guest85094 === SonikkuAmerica is now known as Guest85065 [21:35] hello! i'm trying Ubuntu MATE in VMware on a Mac, thinking of installing alongside Win 10 on my wife's Lenovo pc. are there know complications, I don't know, with EFI boot or stuff like that? [21:36] I just did the same thing on a older Mac Mini with no issues. Apple doesn't make it too hard to boot from USB and then install another OS. Are you thinking to dual boot or take the full meal deal? [21:40] z.z.z.z [21:45] sorry, i confused things a little [21:45] i am testing it in vmware, looks and works great [21:45] even though sometimes it stalls, but i guess it could be due to being live in a vm [21:46] i'll try to actually install it in vm [21:46] but i want to install it on a lenovo pc with dual boot with win 10 [21:47] OK [21:48] macdado: You can always give the Live session a spin [21:50] yeah, my doubt is just because last time i installed with dual boot was a bit messy, but it was a while ago [21:50] i think it was early EFI days (yes, that was a while ago) [21:51] you disable EUFI [21:51] back up your stuff before you do it [21:51] on windows [21:51] or from windows [21:52] thanks [21:52] dual boot install of windows/ubuntu was never a problem [21:52] you have a boot manager (grub) [21:52] if you run into problems, this place isn't that busy all the time -- go to forums [21:52] or #ubuntu [21:52] cos that place has 1800 people in it [21:52] http://ubuntuforums.org/ <- also very busy and the place for support [21:53] https://ubuntu-mate.community/ [21:54] thanks [21:54] if i'll need i'll do it ;) [21:55] im not even sure - don't recall - what UEfi does to interrupt things [21:55] but I do remember disabling it on new laptop [21:55] i also remember there being something to take care [21:56] okay one good question for this channel: the *only* difference between MATE and Xubuntu is MATE vs Xcfe? [21:56] windows .. the normal course of blowing away a brand new copy of windows -- I wrote to dell once for a refund (no reply) [21:56] macdado: Yeah, that's about it. [21:56] One is MATE, the other is XFCE. [21:56] is mate desktop something like LXDE? [21:56] gnome2 something [21:56] MATE's a fork of GNOME 2. [21:56] And we renamed the apps. === bob is now known as Guest79112 [21:58] ok, cause at work i installed xubuntu on a old laptop, i wonder if it's worthwhile to switch to MATE [21:58] it's mainly doing stuff like VNC, accessing local network [21:58] im really happy with mate . .weeks after getting it (pi3s), pi3 replaced my old humungous hp workstations -- I ran the upgrade to 16.04 while continuing to work (try that with windows) .. it all continues to run with 16.04 [21:58] they are rock solid -- an xubuntu user here -- I expect nothing to fail .. nothing does with mate [21:58] & everything is where I expect it to be [21:59] * nomic has a lower electricity bill, permanent NFS (am no longer losing files) .. and HD playback [21:59] is good being able to just flick on a monitor and the desktop is there , in a different position [22:00] beautiful -- the OS not being an issue ie. the PC [22:00] someone said the PC will turn into a lump on the HDMI cable - its close to that .. these things are small [22:01] * nomic uses x2x to drift mouse cursor across from laptop (xubuntu) [22:01] << Also an Xubuntu user, but on Ubuntu MATE's social media and QA teams. [22:02] okay so xubuntu it's equally good, it's just a matter of desktop enviroment [22:02] i've left it on my laptop (main thing I type on) -- I could replace it with mate [22:02] Well, in that vein, so is Unity, GNOME, KDE, LXDE... :P [22:02] of course [22:02] * nomic has been an xubuntu user since 10.04 [22:03] I was trying some other distros in VMware [22:03] GNOME... is a bit weird [22:03] looks nice === swift110_ is now known as swift110 === littlebunnyfufu is now known as SonikkuAmeric === SonikkuAmeric is now known as SonikkuAmerica [23:51] must say... absolutely loving mate still [23:51] just trying to find a way to re-order the stuff on my bottom panel using "ubuntu mate" panel layout [23:52] re-order? [23:52] like, right now it is good, but if i launch steam after i launch my browser, the tab thing for steam is always to the right of firefox windows === littlebunnyfufu is now known as SonikkuAmerica [23:53] Drag and drop reordering works for me. [23:54] yES IT WORKS [23:54] Oups [23:55] oH NOES, CAPS LICK IS ON [sic] [23:55] ohhhhh it has a tiny indicator that it will work [23:55] i gotta be a bit more exact than the windoze at work, but i'm ok with that :) [23:57] i was beeing sloppy and they'd snap back lol
