[00:52] Heyyo [00:52] There 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? [01:41] fifty-sevenC, maybe ask in #ubuntu ? [01:51] Asking that appears to have started a flamewar. :) [01:59] fifty-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. [02:13] i have a question: when i suspend and restart pc i sometimes lose wifi. does that happen to anyone else? [02:14] loses* [02:15] xlindsay: Yes. [02:29] is the problem reported? [06:16] Hi guys , Id like to get involved more with Mate , where do I start ? I cant really code besides Python . But I use mate Every day and rate I should give something back. Do you guys need Testers ? [07:00] u mean invovle in open source mate project [07:00] involve* [07:02] ? [07:05] jip :-D [07:26] how to load new softwares [07:27] Do you want to know how to install software ? [07:29] yes I want to draw a sketch. [07:29] Gimp will work for that [07:30] OK I try..Thanks [07:31] do you want me to tell you how to install it ? [07:32] I think Gimp is already installed. first I check then let you know. [07:32] cool [08:11] hey can anybody tell me that how i can update my all drivers ? [08:14] hey please anyone tell me how can i update my drivers as video quality in ubuntu is way poorer than to win 10 in my system [08:15] try apt-get update and then apt-get upgrade [08:16] this will update all software and drivers [08:17] this is doing nothing in terminal [08:18] try sudo apt-get update [08:18] it will ask for your password [08:18] yes after that ? [08:19] then sudo apt-get upgrade [08:19] then ? [08:20] do i have to reboot ? [08:20] did it install any software ? [08:20] nothing much [08:21] mate-display-properties [08:22] monitor [08:22] can you set it higher there ? [08:22] it was already set to max [08:23] but still video quality color production is poor [08:23] then you might need nvedia / Ati Drivers , not really my area [08:25] okay btw i tried updating nvidia drivers but got error saying having broken packages or not installed [08:30] you can try sudo apt-get -f install to fix broken packages [08:30] andy____, [08:31] Did you enable the proprietary driver in Welcome -> Getting Started -> Driver? [08:31] Also what do you mean "Video Quality"? [08:31] damn [09:41] Hello\ [09:41] hey wang [09:42] Are you chinese? [09:43] no [09:44] How can i creat an icon on desktop in this system? [09:44] ubuntu mate [09:44] right click -> Create Launcher [09:46] I use chinese [09:46] !cn | wang [09:46] wang: 如欲獲得中文的協助，請輸入 /join #ubuntu-cn 或 /join #ubuntu-tw [09:46] If you need help in your native language, go there [09:46] let me try [09:46] I don't know the chinese equivalent of "Create Launcher", sorry :/ [09:48] Thank you [09:52] Hello :) [09:53] hello ubuntu-mate [09:53] man this linux thing is better than windows [09:56] coming back to Ubuntu Mate from Linux Mint [09:56] yup [09:57] <-- Greetings from Australia === ubuntu-mate is now known as hunterFamily [09:58] hunterFamily, greetings from France [10:47] oi cara === YankDownUnder is now known as YDU_sleeping [15:15] hello everyone [15:16] i 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? === atlantic is now known as atlantic_ === atlantic_ is now known as atlantic === atlantic is now known as atlanticd [15:37] hansacker, i believe you can run xscreensaver from a terminal if you want to use that instead of the default mate one [15:43] Akuli: 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 screen [15:44] you could remove whatever you've installed and hope everything works... other than that i dont know how to help [15:45] flexiondotorg, 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? [15:46] ouroumov, Yes, file against both. But will require evidence of a leak. [15:46] Okay. Launchpad or github? [15:46] Akuli: hm. i would like to use some of the new screensavers, so removing them is not a valid optin [15:46] ouroumov, is that 16.04_ [15:46] ? [15:47] Akuli, yes. [15:47] so 14.04 is fine? [15:47] somehow i guessed it :) no surprise to me [15:47] Dunno, haven't attempted to reproduce on 14.04 [15:47] Is 14.04 using MATE 1.12.1? [15:48] 1.8.2 [15:48] :) [15:48] k [16:02] i 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 set [16:02] then i added a startprogramm "/usr/bin/synclient TapButton2=2" and that does not work, too. i would like to thank someone for help [16:17] Why is there no 14.04.5 installer for Ubuntu Mate? [16:21] fifty-sevenC, there is [16:21] you just need to find it [16:21] ??? The downloader points to 14.04.2 [16:22] oh [16:22] then you can install from a mini.iso, or just upgrade [16:22] Well I am hoping I can upgrade. :) [16:22] 3.16 is an old kernel. [16:22] Old kernel, new hardware. Eyyy [16:23] On 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 bug [16:23] https://ubuntu-mate.org/trusty/ [16:28] flexiondotorg, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mate/+bug/1608599 && https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mate/+bug/1608603 [16:28] Launchpad bug 1608599 in mate-panel (Ubuntu) "Possible Memory Leak in mate-panel" [Undecided,New] [16:28] Launchpad bug 1608603 in mate-panel (Ubuntu) "Possible memory leak in eom" [Undecided,New] [16:33] Ok, gfxboot workaround. Use 14.04 live disk. gfxboot error complaint type help, then press enter and it boots. lmfao [16:33] and no trackpad [16:34] Old kernel is old :( [16:54] Right, I'm off. Bye... [16:54] Bye [16:59] Hello! [17:06] hi DarkPsydeLord [17:07] how are you? [17:08] I'm good. You? [17:12] well working... (sort of) [17:13] you know i usually take a few mins per hour to distract myself from code and sysadmin [17:13] ^^ [17:20] anyway im just drinking tomato juice and reading some cache to check if i can be helpful at all XD [17:20] reading cache? [17:22] sorry log im thinking about other things hahahaha [17:23] ^^ [17:23] What company do you work for DarkPsydeLord? (If you can say) [17:25] well i work at 2 different places 1 is a mistery so i cant say anything about it (its not cia or nasa) just commercial stuff [17:26] SpaceX! [17:27] and im the IT manager of a shoe company yes it sounds weird but its true [17:27] lol [17:27] Okay ^^ [17:27] the frye show company [17:27] shoe not show! [17:27] lol [17:28] Upgrade 15.10 to 16.04.1 went perfectly. Even the WiFi dongle works. w00t [17:29] NICE! [17:29] Now I should not have to do that again for a few years (hopes) [17:29] but its been a while since i encountered any issue with upgrading [17:29] or wifi [17:29] specially on any buntu [17:30] All those nay-sayers a few months ago about what a dog 16.04 was didn't know what they were doing [17:30] lol [17:31] well i had a few troubles related to wifi in arch a few months ago but well that was you know my mistake [17:31] as almost everything i do in arch [17:31] It is easy to 'make mistakes' with Arch... [17:31] common mistakes [17:32] My headless x86 file server box and Rpi3 still run Arch. I don't touch them now that they work [17:33] well im always curious about aspects of linux so my arch machines are usually learning machines [17:33] and i break em often [17:33] hahahaha [17:34] *cough* every 15 days *cough* [17:34] Is it possible to do an Ubuntu upgrade using a downloaded iso instead of over the network - it took hours. [17:35] Depends on how you set up your partitions [17:35] If you have a separate /home partition then yes [17:35] ^ [17:35] I don't mean replace the system with a new one. I mean keeping all installed apps and configs [17:36] I always have a separate /home [17:36] Well in that case, not that I know of [17:38] well as a linux user i will tell no upgrade from live iso is possible [17:38] and geek from hell i will say [17:39] theoretically is possible if you know the packages that must be upgraded! [17:39] but ofc that is a long long list [17:40] which is way easier using net install to handle that for you [17:40] netinstall isos are awesome [17:40] and having separate home folder make the whole thing easier for a clean install [17:40] just install and everything's up to date [17:41] indeed! [17:54] I 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. === elias_ is now known as Xinerama [19:12] What's up people? === Akuli_ is now known as Akuli [21:04] hi all! === yann is now known as Guest40202 === YDU_sleeping is now known as YankDownUnder [21:46] hi yankdownunder [21:49] nomic: Peace [21:58] I have a problem with screen res on my resbarry pi mate installation [21:59] can someone assist [21:59] ?
