fifty-sevenCThere is a bug in the installer for Ubuntu when used for Chromebooks. If I install ubuntu-server and install the ubuntu-mate meta package will it end up the same?00:52
ouroumovfifty-sevenC, maybe ask in #ubuntu ?01:41
fifty-sevenCAsking that appears to have started a flamewar. :)01:51
YankDownUnderfifty-sevenC: It'll be the same...with the exception of the way that the base is installed, really...it's simple enough to test out, if anything else.01:59
xlindsayi have a question: when i suspend and restart pc i sometimes lose wifi. does that happen to anyone else?02:13
xlindsayloses*02:14
YankDownUnderxlindsay: Yes.02:15

hansackerhello everyone15:15
hansackeri installed ubuntu mate today and installed "xscreensaver-data-extra xscreensaver-gl-extra" to get extra screensavers. now there's only a black screen in screensaver-mode even when i selected one of the default ubuntu-mate-screensavers.. any ideas?15:16

Akulihansacker, i believe you can run xscreensaver from a terminal if you want to use that instead of the default mate one15:37
hansackerAkuli: i would like to use the mate-screensaver because its pretty easy by default and it worked before installing the new screensavers. in the config menu theres even now a long list of all the screensavers including the default ones but - as i said - black screen15:43
Akuliyou could remove whatever you've installed and hope everything works... other than that i dont know how to help15:44
ouroumovflexiondotorg, sorry to bother you. Can you take a look at this? https://ubuntu-mate.community/t/possible-memory-leak-in-mate-panel/7717/15 There's a good chance mate-panel and possibly eom are leaking memory all over the place in the LTS. I don't know what to do regarding a possible bug report. File against both?15:45
flexiondotorgouroumov, Yes, file against both. But will require evidence of a leak.15:46
ouroumovOkay. Launchpad or github?15:46
hansackerAkuli: hm. i would like to use some of the new screensavers, so removing them is not a valid optin15:46
Akuliouroumov, is that 16.04_15:46
Akuli?15:46
ouroumovAkuli, yes.15:47
Akuliso 14.04 is fine?15:47
Akulisomehow i guessed it :) no surprise to me15:47
ouroumovDunno, haven't attempted to reproduce on 14.0415:47
ouroumovIs 14.04 using MATE 1.12.1?15:47
Akuli1.8.215:48
Akuli:)15:48
ouroumovk15:48
hansackeri have another question. im running ubuntu mate on a notebook and i'm used to do a douple-finger-click on the touchpad to paste the clipboard.. this does not work and even the gui-tool to configure the mouse behavior does not perform the action i set16:02
hansackerthen i added a startprogramm "/usr/bin/synclient TapButton2=2" and that does not work, too. i would like to thank someone for help16:02
fifty-sevenCWhy is there no 14.04.5 installer for Ubuntu Mate?16:17
Akulififty-sevenC, there is16:21
Akuliyou just need to find it16:21
fifty-sevenC??? The downloader points to 14.04.216:21
Akulioh16:22
Akulithen you can install from a mini.iso, or just upgrade16:22
fifty-sevenCWell I am hoping I can upgrade. :)16:22
fifty-sevenC3.16 is an old kernel.16:22
fifty-sevenCOld kernel, new hardware. Eyyy16:22
fifty-sevenCOn another note, I'm going to try to install 14.04 just to I can upgrade it to 16.04 in hopes I can bypass the gfxboot bug16:23

fifty-sevenCOk, gfxboot workaround. Use 14.04 live disk. gfxboot error complaint type help, then press enter and it boots. lmfao16:33

DarkPsydeLordhow are you?17:07
ouroumovI'm good. You?17:08
DarkPsydeLordwell working... (sort of)17:12
DarkPsydeLordyou know i usually take a few mins per hour to distract myself from code and sysadmin17:13
ouroumov^^17:13
DarkPsydeLordanyway im just drinking tomato juice and reading some cache to check if i can be helpful at all XD17:20
ouroumovreading cache?17:20
DarkPsydeLordsorry log im thinking about other things hahahaha17:22
ouroumov^^17:23
ouroumovWhat company do you work for DarkPsydeLord? (If you can say)17:23
DarkPsydeLordwell i work at 2 different places 1 is a mistery so i cant say anything about it (its not cia or nasa) just commercial stuff17:25
ouroumovSpaceX!17:26
DarkPsydeLordand im the IT manager of a shoe company yes it sounds weird but its true17:27
ouroumovlol17:27
ouroumovOkay ^^17:27
DarkPsydeLordthe frye show company17:27
DarkPsydeLordshoe not show!17:27
DarkPsydeLordlol17:27
TwoNotesUpgrade 15.10 to 16.04.1 went perfectly.  Even the WiFi dongle works.  w00t17:28
DarkPsydeLordNICE!17:29
TwoNotesNow I should not have to do that again for a few years (hopes)17:29
DarkPsydeLordbut its been a while since i encountered any issue with upgrading17:29
DarkPsydeLordor wifi17:29
DarkPsydeLordspecially on any buntu17:29
TwoNotesAll those nay-sayers a few months ago about what a dog 16.04 was didn't know what they were doing17:30
DarkPsydeLordlol17:30
DarkPsydeLordwell i had a few troubles related to wifi in arch a few months ago but well that was you know my mistake17:31
DarkPsydeLordas almost everything i do in arch17:31
TwoNotesIt is easy to 'make mistakes' with Arch...17:31
DarkPsydeLordcommon mistakes17:31
TwoNotesMy headless x86 file server box and Rpi3 still run Arch.  I don't touch them now that they work17:32
DarkPsydeLordwell im always curious about aspects of linux so my arch machines are usually learning machines17:33
DarkPsydeLordand i break em often17:33
DarkPsydeLordhahahaha17:33
DarkPsydeLord*cough* every 15 days *cough*17:34
TwoNotesIs it possible to do an Ubuntu upgrade using a downloaded iso instead of over the network - it took hours.17:34
ouroumovDepends on how you set up your partitions17:35
ouroumovIf you have a separate /home partition then yes17:35
DarkPsydeLord^17:35
TwoNotesI don't mean replace the system with a new one.  I mean keeping all installed apps and configs17:35
TwoNotesI always have a separate /home17:36
ouroumovWell in that case, not that I know of17:36
DarkPsydeLordwell as a linux user i will tell no upgrade from live iso is possible17:38
DarkPsydeLordand geek from hell i will say17:38
DarkPsydeLordtheoretically is possible if you know the packages that must be upgraded!17:39
DarkPsydeLordbut ofc that is a long long list17:39
DarkPsydeLordwhich is way easier using net install to handle that for you17:40
Akulinetinstall isos are awesome17:40
DarkPsydeLordand having separate home folder make the whole thing easier for a clean install17:40
Akulijust install and everything's up to date17:40
DarkPsydeLordindeed!17:41
TwoNotesI just worry about some outage hitting in the middle of it.  With an iso on a DVD I know the ISPcan't break my upgrade.17:54
