devbieHi, I have installed 16.04.1 (ubuntu-mate-16.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso). After the 1st reboot post-install I can log in but the desktop only shows the Home icon. There are no other visible features. In particular, there are no panels. Is this a known issue? Can anyone help enable/display the panels (or point me in the right direction) pls?10:43
waltersraspberryon what have you installed ubuntu10:44
waltersraspberryhow many ram have your computer10:44
devbiethis is a pc where i have successfully installed and run 14.0410:45
waltersraspberrycan you say me proccese10:45
devbie#waltersraspberry what do you mean?10:46
waltersraspberryhave you tried add panel10:46
baimakeri use ubuntu 16.04 in pi 3,it's ok10:46
waltersraspberrywith right click10:47
devbiei see no option to add panel with a right click on the desktop. i have mate tweak open but see no option to add a panel there either10:48
waltersraspberrywhat is on screen you have said the home folder icon10:48
devbiethe home icon only - nothing else10:48
waltersraspberrywait a moment10:48
baimakeri get it from  pi official website10:49
devbiei'm not running UM on the rpi...10:49
waltersraspberryokay10:50
devbiesince this is a fresh install i wonder if this is to do with the screen resolution: the panels are there but not visible because they sit outside the screen10:50
waltersraspberryhave you try a other resolution10:50
waltersraspberryclick strg-alt-F210:50
waltersraspberryto enter command line10:51
devbieyes that is it, it's the screen resolution. I have changed it to 800x600 (xrandr --output VGA-0 --primary --mode 800x600) and can see the panels10:52
waltersraspberryokay good10:52
devbiei know how to fix this now. i'd love to know how this happened though - i have not swapped screens between the installation and the 1st reboot10:53
waltersraspberryokay thats good10:53
devbieanyway, thx for trying to give me a hand #waltersraspberry10:53
waltersraspberryno problem10:54
waltersraspberry:)10:55
waltersraspberrywhen you have a question say me10:56
waltersraspberry*ask me:)10:57
devbieok thx10:59
waltersraspberryyoure welcome10:59
ouroumovdevbie, what kind of hardware are you running on?11:05
waltersraspberryi going11:06
waltersraspberryout11:07
waltersraspberrylater in 30minutes i came back11:07
devbieouroumov, it's a JNC9KDL-2550 motherboard: cedar trail-d processor d2550 + nm10 chipset11:09
ouroumovdevbie, is the screen res really 800x600?11:10
devbieouroumov, it's not 800x600: i was deliberately playing safe. it seems that the install didn't recognise the screen resolution, setting it to 2704x1050 when the maximum should really be 1680x105011:12
devbiethe screen is a dell p221311:13
ouroumovThat is one uncommon res. :o11:13
ouroumovBut well anyway I guess it happens.11:14
devbienow i (sort of) know how to fix it11:15
devbieouroumov, the system recognises to displays: VGA-1 & LVDS-1. My screen is connected to port VGA-1 (I don't know why they both are '-1', not '-0'...). Somehow LVDS-1 is on and affecting the resolution on VGA-1. All cworks fine when I switch off LVDS-1...11:24

ouroumovwaltersraspberry, yes. I have one.12:08
waltersraspberryis the phone good12:09
ouroumov"Good" is subjective. I prefer this phone to other alternatives, but it could be way better.12:10

motion228hello new user here12:12
waltersraspberryhello12:12
motion228about to start downloading ubuntu mate12:12
waltersraspberrylinux is on android12:12
ouroumovhi motion22812:12
motion228i have a question12:12
ouroumovwaltersraspberry, no12:12
waltersraspberrylinux kernel12:12
ouroumovwaltersraspberry, Android runs on Linux12:12
ouroumovmotion228, please ask. :)12:12
waltersraspberryohh sorry i have false intepret :)12:13
ouroumov:)12:13
waltersraspberryi dont unterstand why use peoples windows when linux is better and free12:14
motion228i have a pretty old and slow laptop with 3gb ram and the processor is AMD Turion(tm) X2 dual-core mobile RM-70 2.00Ghz12:15
ouroumovwaltersraspberry, there's a lot of reasons.12:15
motion228my system type is 64-bit12:15
ouroumovwaltersraspberry, for starters, it's mostly due to the fact that Microsoft have contracts with OEMs to force Windows down people's throats.12:16
motion228should i download the 64 bit version of ubuntu mate even though on the download page its says thee 64 bit is for computers with over 3gb ram and fast proccesors?12:16
ouroumovmotion228, I would say yes, get the 64Bits version.12:17
waltersraspberrywhy i going to the next Media markt and i see anyone windows ?i dont see linux and when i asked people about linux they dont know about him12:17
motion228thanks, just wanted to make sure.12:17
motion228also should i dual boot with windows or erase windows completely? im afraid my laptop will go slow if i dual boot.12:18
ouroumovmotion228, there will be no speed difference between a full erase and a dual boot12:18
waltersraspberryit s very a pity12:19
motion228alright thanks!12:19
waltersraspberrythat many peoples knows about linux operating system12:19
ouroumovmotion228, you should make your choice based on the software you need12:19
ouroumovmotion228, if you don't think you can find the equivalent of some of your windows software on Ubuntu MATE, then you should not erase and do a dual boot.12:20
motion228i dont do any gaming on my laptop and i dont need photo/video editing software12:20
waltersraspberryhave you tried virtualbox12:20
waltersraspberryohh sorry12:20
motion228i will mostly just use for browsing and download movies and tv shows12:21
ouroumovmotion228, in that case, I'd recommend you to make a backup of the files you have on windows and once that's done, to use the "Erase disk and install" option12:21
motion228is there an advantage in erasing windows?12:21
motion228mabye ill need it one day12:22
waltersraspberryi have erasing windows12:22
waltersraspberryi have make not right12:22
ouroumovmotion228, there is no advantage in erasing windows but the disk space you gain.12:22
ouroumovmotion228, if you think you'll need windows some day, then go for a dual boot.12:23
ouroumovmotion228, if you need advice on how to install in dual boot mode, I can provide.12:23
waltersraspberrywhich windows have you motion22812:23
waltersraspberrywhy is motion228 quit12:25
ouroumovWho knows. Maybe he hit ALT+F4 by mistake.12:25
waltersraspberryokay :)12:25
waltersraspberryhave you tried dual boot ouroumov12:26
ouroumovYes, 6 years ago.12:26
waltersraspberrywhich operating system12:26
ouroumovW7/Ubuntu12:26
waltersraspberry i have tried but i have make a Error12:27
ouroumovI made an error *12:28
waltersraspberryohh i must learn better english thanks :)12:28
motion228hello its me again, sorry my internet disconnected.12:28
ouroumovActually, I'm not sure one can "make" and error at all.12:28
ouroumovDoubt is hitting me hard.12:28
ouroumovWelcome back motion22812:28
motion228i have a question regarding disk space12:29
ouroumovYes12:29
waltersraspberryhmm i very like the new operating system ubuntu mate :) its better than raspbian12:30
motion228currently when i open "my computer" i see 3 hard drives local disk C witch has 18.7 Gb free of 46.9 and local disk D and F witch are both empty and have 92 Gb free12:31
motion228can i dual boot?12:31
motion228and can i install ubunta mate on a different hard disk thank what i have on windows12:32
waltersraspberryi have read 8gb is enough to install the operating system is this right12:32
ouroumovmotion228, yes. But you'll have to remind me how things work under windows: are C: D: and F: actually separate disks? Are they all internal disks?12:32
ouroumovwaltersraspberry, on a RPI, yes.12:33
waltersraspberryyes i have tried but not enough12:33
waltersraspberryit say not enough memory12:33
motion228there all seperate disks12:34
ouroumovwaltersraspberry, did you use the Ubuntu MATE 16.04.1 iso for rpi?12:34
motion228there under "hard disk drives"12:34
waltersraspberryyes i use it12:34
waltersraspberrybut already on a 64gb samsung class 10 evo plus micro sd12:35
ouroumovmotion228, but from what I remember of windows it's possible to have on a unique disks multiple labels such as C: on a drive, and D: F: on one other drive (two partitions)12:36
Qommand0rgot one of those in my phone, waltersraspberry12:36
waltersraspberryyes is a good card12:36
motion228so should i just install ubuntu mate on the same hard drive that windows is installed on which has 18.7 Gb free? and then download all my software and other stuff in the two other hard drives?12:37
motion228or will it go slow if theres little spcae?12:37
motion228space*12:37
ouroumovmotion228, no. If you really have an other empty drive available the easiest is to use that.12:38
waltersraspberrymany peoples in the web has said raspberry pi 3 not boot from him but it works and the card was very cheap 15€12:38
ouroumovmotion228, proceed as follow:12:38
ouroumovmotion228, boot the live USB in install mode. Then at the partitioning step when the installer propose various options such as "Erase disk and install", pick the "Something Else" option12:39
ouroumovmotion228, Select the drive that you want to use for the install, ie one of the empty drives, and then click "Create new partition table"12:40
ouroumovmotion228, Once the new partition table is created hit the green "+" sign to create three partitions:12:40
waltersraspberryseeing that several functions in the ubuntu installation are is including an install ubuntu means among other system12:40
ouroumovmotion228, one with type "ext4", mount point "/", size 40000MB12:40
ouroumovmotion228, one with type "Linux Swap"12:41
ouroumovSwap size = 6GB12:41
ouroumovmotion228, the last partition: type "ext4", mount point "/home", size: all remaining space12:41
ouroumovcrap12:42
ouroumovfreaking kvirc12:42
ouroumovfreaking kiwiirc, whatever that is12:43
waltersraspberrywhen this year is cold i open the window and my pi would not hot12:44
ouroumovmotion228, what was the last thing you read before disconnecting?12:44
motion228the part were you told me to install in one of the empty drives it will create three disk partions12:44
ouroumov<ouroumov> motion228, one with type "ext4", mount point "/", size 40000MB12:45
ouroumov<ouroumov> motion228, one with type "Linux Swap"12:45
ouroumov<ouroumov> Swap size = 6GB12:45
ouroumov<ouroumov> motion228, the last partition: type "ext4", mount point "/home", size: all remaining space12:45
ouroumovNext make sure the installer is set to put the bootloader on the disk you partitioned (most likely it will be labeled /dev/sdb if it's the secondary drive)12:46
ouroumovmotion228, and that should install it fine without touching windows. Next to enable the double boot you have to change the boot order in the bios so that the first disk in the boot sequence is the disk you've just installed Ubuntu MATE on.12:47
ouroumovAnyway, I gotta split.12:47
ouroumovSee you later, maybe.12:47
motion228Thanks for the help man12:47

kladif I connect to my desktop using vnc for some reason the menu panel icons (e.g. volume) have a what background to them. any ideas on how I might fix that?17:04
kladmy ~/.vnc/xstartup is just the defaulty one with mate-session &. I'm sure its my fault somehow, just not sure why yet :)17:14
pavlosklad, maybe changing the theme might help17:27
pavlosklad, read in some post ... gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.background active true17:29
kladyeah, changing the theme kinda works. specifically, blackMate theme will change those colors but thats the only one that seems to17:39
kladthe active background thing didn't appear to help17:39
Akulican you just right-click the panel and change background color?17:40
kladwell, its not actually the panel itself? like for the volume it shows up as a 16x16 (or whatever it is) white square with the volume picture infront of it17:43
kladand there is a 1px spacing in between the icons which does show the normal bar color17:44
kladhttp://imgur.com/a/C4CFu17:45
kladas a side note i'm not sure why the indicators are even there. they don't show up on the normal desktop.17:48
