[11:31] <xubuntu58w> help Hi everyone...i start toinstal xubuntu from dvd,and it block me.Now I-m without any os on my pc. xubuntu during instalation show me Errno 5
[11:32] <xubuntu58w> what I have to do
[14:31] <the1durbatuluk> hey guys
[14:33] <the1durbatuluk> The volume keys on my keyboard (Memteq) don't work for adjusting the volume. Does anyone know how to bind the volume up/down/mute to my keyboard?
[14:33] <the1durbatuluk> Not sure what Keyboard driver would do it automatically and i'm also not sure how i would set it manually
[14:49] <the1durbatuluk> nvm

[15:31] <nibudd> Hello, yesterday I did a clean install of Xubuntu 16.04LTS (previously running 14.04LTS without issue). Since the install, my machine will freeze at seemingly random moments. The cursor can still move, but its icon won't change and I can't interact with anything. Your help is appreciated!
[15:33] <nibudd> Also, I did a memtest yesterday and everything checked out
[15:33] <knome> nibudd, do you need to force a shutdown/reboot then or does it freeze for a moment but then continue as nothing happened?
[15:34] <knome> also, which graphics card are you using?
[15:37] <nibudd> knome, I do need to force a shutdown (I've waited for a few minutes occasionally with no change).
[15:38] <knome> also, does the keyboard work?
[15:38] <nibudd> My graphics cards is... NVIDIA C55.. I ran ~$ lspci to check, but i'm not sure exactly what of the output i should be reading
[15:38] <nibudd> the keyboard gives no response in those cases
[15:39] <nibudd> (speaking of the graphics card, I have noticed the occasional glitch onscreen: patches of messed up pixels that will go away if i drag a window over them (this doesn't seem to be directly related to when a freeze happens)
[15:41] <nibudd> oh, here we are, it's an NVIDIA GK106 [GeForce GTX 660]
[15:44] <knome> sorry, i got to run
[15:44] <knome> hopefully somebody is able to help
[15:44] <knome> as this doesn't sound a xubuntu-specific issue, you could try #ubuntu too if nobody shows up
[15:44] <knome> good luck!
[15:44] <nibudd> alright, thanks
[17:21] <Vladimir_> Hi?
[17:29] <knome> Vladimir_, hello. if you have a support question, just ask...
[17:39] <Vladimir_> Hi!
[17:39] <Vladimir_> I'm trying to install Xubuntu
[17:39] <Vladimir_> But i can't connect to Internet.
[17:40] <Vladimir_> The only network that appears is a "Realtek Semiconductor"
[19:31] <triad_> hello
[22:11] <Xires> if anyone is around, I am having a very difficult time with installation.  I continuously get errors about grub installation failing and the log refers to not being able to find the EFI directory.  I have correctly booted using UEFI, I am not using CSM, I am not attempting to dual-boot, I have repartitioned the destination drive multiple times using GPT(on an SSD), I have attempted to use boot-repair no less than 5 times, and absolute
[22:11] <Xires> ly nothing is working.  I could really use some help on this.
[22:12] <mrkramps> Xires, manual partitioning?
[22:13] <Xires> mrkramps, originally, no, but subsequent partitions, yes
[22:14] <mrkramps> grub efi requires an own partition
[22:14] <Xires> I should also note that I have multiple drives and partitions that have important information on them so I cannot repartition or format them.  I am also trying to install to /dev/sdc.  How can I make sure to partition /dev/sdc correctly for EFI?
[22:15] <mrkramps> actually if you tell the installer to use the whole disk there should be no problem
[22:16] <Xires> I was originally using a modified Manjaro on this system until last night when I finally decided that I'd had enough of it(after 3 months) and wanted to return to Xubuntu.
[22:16] <Xires> I am concerned that it will attempt to install to /dev/sda
[22:17] <Xires> I am concerned that it will attempt to install to /dev/sda if I select 'use whole disk'.  Sorry about the premature send.
[22:23] <Xires> mrkramps?
[22:23] <mrkramps> Xires, if you rather want to set up manual partioning create partition 1 with fat32, size up to 200 MB, boot flag, label ef00 and mount point /boot/efi
[22:24] <Xires> Okay, excellent.  All of that can exist on /dev/sdc, correct?  Do I need to install grub to /dev/sda or can it also be installed to /dev/sdc?
[22:24] <mrkramps> let me check
[22:24] <Xires> Okay, thank you.
[22:26] <mrkramps> Xires, should be no problem installing grub to MBR of sdc
[22:26] <Xires> Okay, I'm recreating the partition scheme on sdc now, using gparted.  Then I'll restart the Xubuntu installation.
[22:27] <Xires> I usually maintain separate /boot & / partitions; that'll still be fine even though /boot/efi will be yet another partition, right?  It doesn't have some dependency on other files?
[22:27] <mrkramps> Xires, double check to setup efi partition correctly
[22:28] <mrkramps> Xires, yes … you can use partitions for /boot/efi and /boot seperately
[22:29] <Xires> Okay; /dev/sdc1 = 200 MiB fat32 label & name "ef00"
[22:29] <mrkramps> + boot flag!
[22:29] <Xires> I will have to set boot flag after applying changes
[22:29] <mrkramps> yeah
[22:30] <Xires> /dev/sdc2 = 512 MiB ext4 label & name "/boot"
[22:30] <Xires> /dev/sdc3 = ~150 GB ext4 label & name "/"
[22:30] <Xires> oh, partition table is also gpt
[22:30] <mrkramps> no problem
[22:31] <Xires> flags on /dev/sdc1 set to boot + esp
[22:32] <Xires> now if all of that is done correctly, I should be able to 'manual setup' in Xubuntu installer and set the mount points & such without issue, correct?
[22:32] <mrkramps> yes
[22:33] <Xires> K, ty.  I'm starting that installation process now.  I appreciate the assistance.  I'm so confused by EFI.
[22:34] <mrkramps> Xires, EFI is not that confusing. most difficult part is to not forget the partition when manually paritioning
[22:35] <mrkramps> although things will get really ugly if a 32 bit UEFI BIOS is used
[22:35] <Xires> Understood.  It's strange since it wasn't already there when using Manjaro even though I was booting it using EFI.  It must've done some other evil hackery to make it work.
[22:35] <Xires> Installer is not providing the option to mount efi partition into the filesystem so I assume it will do it automatically, yes?
[22:36] <mrkramps> should be possible to manually type the mount point
[22:37] <Xires> Apparently if the partition type is selected as EFI(which it is), then it doesn't allow manually specifying the mountpoint.
[22:38] <mrkramps> Xires, btw. manjaro's graphical installer provides an additional step for creating this partition
[22:38] <mrkramps> if you cannot set a mount point the esp flag should be enough
[22:39] <Xires> It's been a while but I don't recall the EFI settings for Manjaro.  I did have other issues during the installation, though, so I probably went through a slew of additional configuration to get everything working and mentally blocked out the painful memories.
[22:40] <Xires> I have 4 different swap partitions; does the installer allow setting separate priorities?
[22:40] <mrkramps> you can choose one of them
[22:40] <mrkramps> or none
[22:40] <mrkramps> or add a second and third later
[22:41] <mrkramps> actually different linux installtions can share the same swap
[22:42] <Xires> they used to, I just have different ones prioritized for different things
[22:43] <Xires> but I'll set it up later..I was just curious; installation started
[22:43] <mrkramps> the installer is not that clever ;)
[22:45] <Xires> I understand.  It's a very odd configuration.  I started doing it back on Slackware years ago and just kept the habit even now that it's rarely necessary.
[22:45] <Xires> Installing headers...initrd & grub installation should follow shortly.
[22:46] <Xires> Noted that it said it installed something to the EFI partition...but it scrolled through the syslog too quickly to read.
[22:47] <Xires> YAY! grub-efi installed.  Thank you very much, mrkramps.
[22:47] <Xires> mrkramps++
[22:47] <mrkramps> you're welcome :)
[22:48] <Xires> I was at my breaking point.  Over 20 years on Linux and I couldn't get Xubuntu installed.  Quite frustrating.
[22:51] <Xires> Okay..booted.  Now to teach PulseAudio how to figure out HDMI output ;-P
[22:51] <Xires> Thanks again.  I will reconnect later from the new installation.
[22:51] <mrkramps> Xires, graphics card?
[22:51] <Xires> nvidia gtx 760
[22:52] <Xires> PulseAudio thinks it's unplugged
[22:52] <mrkramps> hm, iirc amd requires a bootoption to allow audio over hdmi
[22:52] <mrkramps> dunni if nvidia is affected as well
[22:54] <Xires> It shouldn't.
[22:54] <mrkramps> yeah, internet tells me it should work
[22:55] <Xires> Yeah, it just couldn't figure out all the virtual HDMI interfaces.  Works now.
