[00:39] <like2omg> I apologize if this has been asked numerous times before by other people, but does Xubuntu allow upgrading from 14.04 to the new 16.04? I seemed to have reached the latest packages and I don't know if I set it to ignore the update/
[00:40] <Unit193> !ltsupgrade
[00:41] <like2omg> Okay, thank you Unit193 :)
[00:43] <like2omg> Also, is it knownhow reliable an iffy connection to the internet will be able to allow it to upgrade? I USB tether with my phone and don't want an incomming call to soft-brick my laptop.
[00:44] <like2omg> ... I'll just hope for the best. Thank you again. :)
[08:51] <Rayne> Is there a specific reason that thunar doesn't support opening a terminal in a gvfs mounted directory? I don't like to cdir to /var/run/…/gvfs every time when I am using thunar to open a terminal in a specific directory. Opening terminals is possible with sshfs.
[08:53] <Rayne> It also hides user defined right-click actions in gvfs mounts (when not accessing them directly by /var/run/…)
[10:36] <akis> hi all. i installed yesterday xubuntu 16.04. thunar could work with archive plug in normally as did also under 14.04 but today when i tried to archive some files i got the message: Failed to create archive. No suitable archive manager found. Any help? i read some documantation but i didnt find a solution. any idea?
[11:30] <knob> Hello everyone.  Last night I installed 16.04 in a new ssd in my workstation.  After installation, I installed (SATA) the old SSD which was encrypted via LUKS.
[11:31] <knob> I tried to uncrypted, and was successful.  Yet when I tried to mount it, it failed.  I *think*  it is because the old ssd and the new ssd have the same LVM "VG" (Volume Group) name.
[11:31] <knob> If this sounds plausible, can I change the VG Name of a drive, without loosing the data?

[13:11] <dkessel> akis: what kind of archive did you want to create - what file format?
[13:12] <dkessel> knob: sounds like a general ubuntu question. you might find help in #ubuntu
[13:14] <akis> dkessel: zip. the bug is described here: https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10826 and https://forum.xfce.org/viewtopic.php?id=9572. any idea?
[13:15] <knob> dkessel, thanks!  Just posted the question there
[13:16] <dkessel> akis: so, did you try the described workaround? like... renaming/copying the .tap/.desktop (as i understand it) file to the new name?
[13:17] <dkessel> akis: just out of interest - did you do an upgrade from an installed 14.04 to 16.04?
[13:24] <akis> dkessel: sorry i rebooted to check if i fix it, but i didnt. did you write anything the time i was disconnected?
[13:32] <dkessel> oh yes i wrote this:

[13:32] <akis> dkessel: fresh installation. i tried but nothing changed.
[13:35] <dkessel> akis: so you have a file /usr/lib/xfce4/thunar-archive-plugin/org.gnome.FileRoller.tap now?
[13:36] <akis> dkessel: i will post a screen shot
[13:41] <akis> dkessel: http://pasteboard.co/110tMb8P.png
[13:43] <dkessel> akis: looks good. although i am unsure if you needed that workaround at all. maybe you have another bug. but i don't know how to help any further.
[13:44] <akis> ok, thanks for your time today.
[13:45] <dkessel> maybe asking the xfce people in #xfce helps
[17:42] <akis> hi all. i faced this issue https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1006838-start-0.html on my freshly 16.04 installation. My system has already (by default) the symbolic link mentioned on this thread (http://pasteboard.co/11gfPQvc.png). Any idea to override this issue?
[18:03] <flocculant> akis: odd - just checking, you mean the Extract to ... and Extract here ... options in the thunar right click menu?
[18:03] <flocculant> just booted with the iso - works ok there
[18:04] <knome> flocculant, i think he was trying to *reate* an archive
[18:04] <knome> create too
[18:07] <flocculant> that worked too
[18:07] <knome> mhm
[18:17] <Orioa> ddoes anyone know if i can use /quote ns on weechat instaead of /msg
[18:18] <knome> Orioa, #weechat ?
[18:19] <Orioa> yeah
[21:52] <Duderis_> Hello
[21:52] <knome> hello
[21:53] <David-A> hello
[21:53] <Duderis_> guys, im a linux noob and just installed xubuntu, having issues, is this the right place to search for help x.x ?
[21:53] <knome> yes
[21:54] <Duderis_> so um ye :D my newly machine doesnt want to turn off :D
[21:55] <Duderis_> newly installed machine*
[21:55] <Duderis_> newly installed operating system** x.x
[21:55] <Duderis_> it reboots on shut down
[21:56] <Duderis_> any ideas anyone ?
[21:56] <knome> which xubuntu version are you using and how are you shutting down?
[21:57] <Duderis_> im using the 16.04 x64
[21:57] <Duderis_> and im shutting down bu using the shutdown button on the toolbar
[21:57] <Duderis_> well also the button on the login screen
[21:58] <Duderis_> when force shut-downing (holding the button for 10s~) it stays down >.>
[21:58] <Duderis_> but thats not a solution i think
[22:00] <Duderis_> also i tried the general things that came up in google, as in changing the bios settings for awake on wlan and editing the /etc/default/grub file, none of which solved my issue
[22:03] <Duderis_> no ideas :( ?
[22:12] <squinty> Duderis_,  there has been a couple of users reporting this in #ubuntu.  Might want to try the following to see if it resolves your problem.  It was suggested by one of the more knowledgeable participants in that channel.  http://paste.ubuntu.com/16501127/
[22:14] <genii> Yes, TJ is a trusted and knowledgeable helper
[22:14] <Duderis_> thanks
[22:15] <Duderis_> ill report back as soon as i can test this out, running out of time currently
[22:16] <Duderis_> cya later, and thanks again
