=== gryphon_ is now known as gryphon [04:36] syspect the "bug" regarding my mate miniprogram indicator was because of a propietary bios update [04:36] suspect [04:39] nope that wasnt it! [04:39] :( [05:34] Good evening/morning/afternoon depending on your location === rw is now known as Guest82368 === kisb_ is now known as kisb [10:15] zdrawejte [12:17] there's about an inch width on the side of one of my monitors where I can't put icons and windows won't maximize past it. Any idea what might cause that? [13:02] Any of you guys running Ubuntu MATE on the Pi 3? [13:19] hello everybody [13:20] could some one help me with Ubuntu mate ? [14:50] hey guys tried upgrading to 16.04 from 14.04 and in uefi mode Grub is missing, in standard mode, I get the iframas (believe i spelled that right) terminal page but cn't type anything in. I download the iso through torrent and used unetbootin to make the boot image on my flash drive, did I screw up somewhere? [14:55] mate|7079: can you boot the USB stick at all? [14:55] yes [14:55] and it boots to a normal desktop, if you click "Try Ubuntu"? [14:56] redownloading the image now to see if that's the issue [14:56] didn't try that tbh just went straight to install [15:02] so reimaging the flash drive again will try the try ubuntu route and report back [15:04] also I don't really bother with unetbootin since I've never got it to work ever [15:04] I just copy it to the stick with dd [15:04] kinda hard to do that on windows tho....

[20:10] somebody here ? [20:13] Guest71395: hi [20:13] What do you have installed on the Pi2? [20:17] downloaded image ubuntu-mate-16.04-beta2-desktop-armhf-rapsberry-pi [20:19] hi, thanks for answering [20:20] installation is just out-of-the-box, nothing customized yet [21:14] What's up everyone: [21:16] . [21:47] Hola a todos [21:48] +i [22:02] Can anyone inform me why software boutique isn't working? [22:03] o wait. Looks like I'm all good. [22:03] Just had to do a quick restart [23:14] Where do I go to expand my file system? [23:14] Can you explain more what it is you want to do? [23:14] and the background behind the request [23:15] I have an 8GB micro SD card running MATE but it only shows that i have 3.6 GB avalable. [23:15] And on windows it shows that there is lots of unallocated space [23:16] Well first, don't believe anything Windows says. [23:16] hey guys, could some one help me? [23:16] Next, are you booting off the SD card? [23:16] OK, but its true, the forum also had people saing to expland my file system on the welcome screen, but I dont know where [23:16] And yes, I am booting from the SD card [23:18] Are you using LVM? [23:18] I dont know, I am on a raspberry pi [23:18] Ok. I'm going to tell you how to do it the noob friendly way [23:19] type this [23:19] Ok [23:19] sudo apt-get install gparted [23:19] ok hold on [23:19] press ctrl+alt+t to open a terminal [23:19] paste that in there [23:19] Use gparted to grow your volume [23:19] mate|35300, Hi what did you need help with? [23:20] Ok, it is installing right now [23:22] Where do I launch GParted? [23:22] type sudo gparted [23:22] in the terminal [23:22] ok [23:23] Ok, it is open, what do I do next? [23:23] Do what you wanted to do [23:23] hello, sorry i am new with linux [23:24] i have a 4/5 year old laptop [23:24] mate|35300, Ok. What do you need help with? [23:25] and installed ubuntu mate on it the 16.04 it lagged alot , then i installed all other ubuntu then is still lagged... then i installed ubuntu mate 14.04.. now the interface is nog lagging anymore but if i go like firefox or something it still lags [23:25] When I expand it, it gives me an error message [23:26] mate|35300, You might want to disable compositing [23:26] what does that mean ? [23:26] mate|35300, Look for MATE Tweak in your menus [23:27] its not on [23:27] mate|35300, Somewhere you should have an option to pick your window manager or compositor. Just select no compositing [23:28] Should I remove the SD card and try to expand on windows with my partition manager? [23:28] mate|35300, Well, if your computer is slow Linux will not magically make it faster. [23:29] ELECTRODYNAMIX, Windows can only resize dynamic disks, which will make it unbootable. [23:29] Oh ok, not even if I use MiniTool partition manager? [23:29] I never heard of minitool [23:29] ok [23:30] Is there any other way to expand it then? [23:30] gparted always fails [23:30] yes i guess you're right... windows 7 is oke... [23:30] i tought linux would be faster [23:31] ELECTRODYNAMIX, Not while it is mounted no. Try booting off a thumbdrive then using gparted to resize the sdcard [23:31] I cant boot off of USB with raspberry pi [23:31] ELECTRODYNAMIX, do it on a desktop or laptop then [23:31] Could I use gparted on my other linix desktop? [23:32] mate|35300, How much memory does your laptop have? [23:32] 4gb [23:33] mate|35300, What CPU and GPU? [23:33] maybe bad drivers [23:33] AMD C60 [23:33] its a APU [23:33] I will try to expand my file system on the SD card with my other linux desktop computer. [23:34] mate|35300, I have no experience with APUs. Try checking your menus for "Additional Drivers" [23:35] yeah i tried that already... it doesnt work... :( [23:36] open a terminal and do [23:36] cat /sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_dpm_state [23:36] It is in performance mode? [23:36] now its says internal error [23:36] and restart [23:37] mate|35300, might be something is broken in your laptop? [23:37] I want to thank you for your help [23:37] yes maybe... [23:37] No problem although I wasn't able to help much [23:38] maybe i go and install the latest ubuntu mate again but then the 64 bit version [23:38] 64 bit version is probably better. [23:38] yeah [23:38] But just check cat /sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_dpm_state [23:38] oke [23:39] If it doesn't say performance you're in low power mode [23:40] can i copy the text and put it in the terminal ? [23:40] yes [23:40] how can i do it ? [23:40] Just highlight it [23:40] if is do crtl V [23:40] Then in the terminal right click and select paste [23:41] it says no such file in the system [23:42] You should have the radeon driver installed. [23:42] And that should spit out battery or performance [23:42] aaah in de amd catalist [23:43] yeah [23:43] its maximum performance [23:43] maybe i installed it wrong [23:43] Where did you install that driver from? [23:43] from synaptics [23:43] or something [23:43] i saw it on youtube [23:44] Did you have the problem before or after you installed the proprietary driver> [23:45] before [23:45] Are you currently having the problem? [23:45] i installed the driver because i thought it was not ok [23:46] yeah with youtube and other website who are heavy [23:46] website like this i am not having the issue [23:46] the point is i really really like the ubuntu interface [23:47] Ok. As long as you didn't download and run a blob off the net. [23:47] And installed it through synaptic or apt [23:47] no [23:48] mate|35300, A lot of people like MATE. It is why we use it [23:48] the driver is from synaptic itself [23:48] yeah [23:48] You're also free to modify it or try other desktops like openbox [23:48] btw i am on a netbook [23:49] Cool beans [23:49] well i tried lubuntu today [23:49] but also the same problem [23:50] i thought maybe my cpu just dont fit linux [23:50] Well now you know you need the proprietary driver [23:51] yeah [23:51] i did that with additional driver [23:52] i know amd's website also offers driver [23:52] Don't use the drivers on the AMD site [23:52] Everytime a kernel patch is released you'll have to recompile with no DE [23:53] hehehe to be honest i dont know what you mean [23:53] its to difficult [23:54] but where would you take the driver from ? [23:54] Don't install the driver from the website [23:55] yes that part understand :D [23:56] It means if you do, next time a kernel update comes out you will have to fix it from a blinking black cursor. [23:57] aaah oke :P [23:57] i will install the latest ubuntu mate [23:58] Don't [23:58] ? [23:58] No proprietary drivers in 16.04 yet [23:58] ow [23:58] 15.10 then? [23:59] Look for "Software & Updates" [23:59] turn on backports [23:59] That will get you newer packages
