| fucatus | hello | 11:07 |
| fucatus | i guess meta questions aren't welcome here so here is my problem: i installed bumblebee on my xubuntu and after a reboot my screen resolution was fixed to something like 600x480. from there I tried a lot of things and finally managed to get an option to change my resolution through the gui (display settings), however, the resolution didn't actually change | 11:09 |
| fucatus | well, after a while of trying to fix it, now all graphical surface is gone, but i still have access via console | 11:09 |
| fucatus | is there a way for me to restore my graphics to the starting default? | 11:10 |
| fucatus | i tried several things and searched a lot, for example i tried reinstalling xfce, but nothing worked | 11:10 |

| ProjectFi | Hello. | 18:19 |
| ProjectFi | I am not new to Linux, but still learning. | 18:20 |
| ProjectFi | I tried to format my Flashdrive, but it shows me error. | 18:20 |
| ProjectFi | "Permission Denied". | 18:20 |
| ProjectFi | I was using terminal to format my pendrive, and was following these commands. : http://askubuntu.com/questions/662935/how-to-format-usb-flash-disk-using-ubuntu-terminal | 18:20 |
| ProjectFi | Can someone help me out. | 18:21 |
| krytarik | ProjectFi: That command is missing "sudo" in front. | 18:22 |
| krytarik | !sudo | 18:22 |
| ubottu | sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !pkexec (for older releases: !gksu and !kdesudo). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 18:22 |
| ProjectFi | Oh my lord. | 18:23 |
| ProjectFi | Thank you. | 18:23 |
| krytarik | Sure. | 18:23 |
| MannyG | hello i have a minor display isssue on (primary display using 3 screens) can anyone help me ? | 18:23 |
| ProjectFi | I am so dumb and blind. | 18:23 |
| ProjectFi | krytarik: Which program will you recommend for making bootable pendrive? | 18:24 |
| ProjectFi | Unetbootin ? | 18:24 |
| krytarik | ProjectFi: I recently just used 'dd' myself. :P | 18:25 |
| ProjectFi | dd? | 18:25 |
| ProjectFi | krytarik: What is dd? Is there any tutorial on how make bootable usb on linux ? | 18:29 |
| krytarik | ProjectFi: http://askubuntu.com/questions/372607/how-to-create-a-bootable-ubuntu-usb-flash-drive-from-terminal - but if you are on 16.04, 'usb-creator-gtk' should work as well. | 18:29 |
| ProjectFi | krytarik: I am on 15 version. | 18:29 |
| krytarik | Then I'd not bet on the latter. | 18:30 |
| krytarik | !usb | ProjectFi: There is quite a bit of info here as well | 18:36 |
| ubottu | ProjectFi: There is quite a bit of info here as well: For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 18:36 |
| thenewone | Hi guys | 19:11 |
| thenewone | is xubuntu the same as ubuntu ? | 19:11 |
| thenewone | only the xfce4 difference ? | 19:11 |
| niteye | hello peoples | 19:18 |
| thenewone | Hi | 19:19 |
| thenewone | niteye: i have a simple question | 19:20 |
| thenewone | niteye: is xubuntu = ubuntu only the wm difference ? | 19:20 |
| niteye | the desktop environment is also different, but they use the same repository, so its almost the same | 19:20 |
| thenewone | only the desktop | 19:21 |
| thenewone | ok | 19:21 |
| niteye | but im no expert on ubuntu because im also here for an issue i have heheh | 19:21 |
| thenewone | thanks alot :) | 19:21 |
| thenewone | what is the issue ? | 19:21 |
| thenewone | before i leave :) | 19:21 |
| niteye | i have a strange issue in the installation, when i create my paritions, the installer keeps adding 0 Mb sized free space in between the partitions | 19:21 |
| thenewone | what program you are using to create this partitions ? | 19:22 |
| thenewone | cfdisk gparted ? | 19:22 |
| niteye | even when i want to change an existing partition, if i click OK it says i edited the size, which i didnt, and it adds 0 Mb of free space after it | 19:22 |
| niteye | dunno, the xubuntu installer | 19:22 |
| thenewone | niteye: can you delete this paritions again ? | 19:23 |
| niteye | yup i can but when i try to recreate it, it happens again | 19:24 |
| thenewone | ok do the following | 19:24 |
| thenewone | shred -vn 1 /dev/sdX ( the partition you wanna remake ) | 19:24 |
| thenewone | wait 1% or 2% | 19:24 |
| niteye | at least its handy i can IRC and surf the web while installing. on the same computer hehe | 19:24 |
| thenewone | cfdisk create this parititons again | 19:24 |
| thenewone | and mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdX | 19:25 |
| thenewone | yep | 19:25 |
| thenewone | i think i will give a try for xubuntu | 19:25 |
| niteye | isnt shred gonna take an enormous amount of time. the partition is 2 tb | 19:25 |
| thenewone | even ubuntu is not secure that much | 19:25 |
| thenewone | niteye: don't let it finish just for 1% | 19:25 |
| thenewone | and use cfdisk | 19:26 |
| niteye | i need ubuntu because debian is terrible on my computer, too many driver and video issues, ubuntu seems to work much better, but i hate the interface, so i choose xubuntu, its not secure by default but you can configure it to be very very secure | 19:26 |
| thenewone | how can you make it secure ? | 19:28 |
| niteye | you can set up strict firewall rules, encrypt the drive, set up a lock screen etc. | 19:29 |
| thenewone | ya firewall | 19:29 |
| thenewone | wish one you are using iptables or ufw ? | 19:29 |
| niteye | iptables | 19:29 |
| thenewone | nice | 19:30 |
| thenewone | ufw sucks :) | 19:30 |
| niteye | i wouldnt know i never used it, :) but iptables is nice | 19:30 |
| thenewone | i'm donwloading xubuntu | 19:30 |
| thenewone | the best | 19:30 |
| thenewone | ok guys thanks alot and have a nice day | 19:31 |
| niteye | indeed the best, except the installer | 19:31 |
| thenewone | niteye: did your problem solved ? | 19:31 |
| niteye | didnt try it yet | 19:31 |
| thenewone | i'm runing arch now | 19:31 |
| thenewone | i will back to debian little bit | 19:32 |
| thenewone | and distros based on debian | 19:32 |
| thenewone | just for fun i will leave you knwo thanks alot and have a nice day :) | 19:32 |
| krytarik | niteye: http://askubuntu.com/questions/525596/unallocated-small-chunks-being-created-in-gparted-when-resizing-partitions | 19:36 |
| niteye | aha so xubuntu installer probably aligns to MB, but i dont see an option to change it though, as i use GPT primary partitions | 19:39 |
| krytarik | niteye: You can use GParted from the Live session *before* running the installer. | 19:41 |
| niteye | would it work though, because when i want to "use" an existing partition, even if i dont change the size, it says i changed it and adds a 0MB free space before or after it | 19:41 |
