| Guest31286 | i have a question? does my nvidia card 304 driver work well with lubuntu 16.04.1 ? | 00:52 |
|---|---|---|
| wxl | Guest31286: is this a new driver? | 00:53 |
| Guest31286 | old video card | 00:54 |

| Guest31286 | Integrated graphics using nVidia GeForce 6150SE | 00:56 |
| wxl | Guest31286: i'm not seeing any particular complaints | 01:00 |
| wxl | Guest31286: correction, perhaps https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2321732 | 01:02 |
| wxl | Guest31286: you might want to check and see if #ubuntu has anything to say about it | 01:03 |
| Guest31286 | its related to the kernel 4.4 that cause wrong screen size resolution since my monitor is 1920 x 1080 that set to 1080 x 768 | 01:04 |

| Shawn196|Lubuntu | anyone know of a better program to find checksums for lubuntu16.4.1-amd64.iso? | 01:05 |
| Shawn196|Lubuntu | desktop | 01:05 |
| wxl | Shawn196|Lubuntu: better program than...... ? | 01:06 |
| Shawn196|Lubuntu | I'm using gtkash to read the hash on the download | 01:06 |
| wxl | Shawn196|Lubuntu: why not just use md5? | 01:06 |
| Shawn196|Lubuntu | and its different from the ones here http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/releases/16.04/release/ | 01:06 |
| Shawn196|Lubuntu | I keep getting an MD5 of 0967b1511bb02b9c28794210ad9097c1 | 01:06 |
| Shawn196|Lubuntu | I just downloaded via torrent on transmission torrent client | 01:07 |
| wxl | i'd expect the torrent to correctly download. | 01:07 |
| Unit193 | It has an embedded hash, yeah. | 01:07 |
| Shawn196|Lubuntu | I downloaded it via firefox, and then torrent | 01:07 |
| Shawn196|Lubuntu | the website says the hash is d2d7edc41ea03998e267db607f92b40d | 01:08 |
| wxl | i'd trust the torrent over firefox | 01:08 |
| wxl | http is possibly unreliable | 01:08 |
| Shawn196|Lubuntu | ah | 01:08 |
| Unit193 | Correct hash file? | 01:08 |
| wxl | looking | 01:08 |
| Shawn196|Lubuntu | should I use something other than Gtkash? | 01:08 |
| Shawn196|Lubuntu | *Hash | 01:08 |
| wxl | should be d2d7edc41ea03998e267db607f92b40d as he says | 01:08 |
| wxl | as long as you're doing a checksum on the iso and not the .torrent file XD | 01:09 |
| wxl | Shawn196|Lubuntu: the md5sum command works nice | 01:09 |
| Shawn196|Lubuntu | whats that? | 01:09 |
| Shawn196|Lubuntu | on the iso | 01:09 |
| wxl | it's a command you use in terminal | 01:09 |
| wxl | tends to be what's recommended | 01:09 |
| wxl | !hash | 01:09 |
| wxl | argh | 01:09 |
| wxl | !md5 | 01:09 |
| ubottu | To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 01:09 |
| wxl | of course you could boot it | 01:12 |
| wxl | if it boots and passes the integrity check at boot, then you're good to go | 01:12 |
| Shawn196|Lubuntu | oh, md5sum command gives me the same md5sum as the one on the website | 01:15 |
| Shawn196|Lubuntu | unetbootin disk prepping now :D | 01:18 |
| Shawn196|Lubuntu | why is xorg so unstable with java? | 03:20 |
| morf | is it? | 03:21 |
| Shawn196|Lubuntu | I can't start TechnicLauncher on opendk | 03:23 |
| Shawn196|Lubuntu | *openjdk | 03:23 |
| Shawn196|Lubuntu | but vanilla minecraft runs | 03:23 |

| Ascavasaion | Can anyone suggest a graphical tool for creating scheduled tasks? I see gnome-schedule has been removed from repositories. | 21:10 |
| Ascavasaion | Can anyone suggest a graphical tool for creating scheduled tasks? I see gnome-schedule has been removed from repositories. | 21:37 |
| wxl | !patience | Ascavasaion | 21:38 |
| ubottu | Ascavasaion: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ | 21:38 |
| Ascavasaion | 27 minutes? that is patience :) | 21:39 |
| wxl | Ascavasaion: the key part is "if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you" | 21:40 |
| Ascavasaion | wxl: I hear you. Saw a few new people joined... took a chance. | 21:40 |
| wxl | Ascavasaion: of course, you could just use cron. | 21:42 |
| Ascavasaion | Seems cron is the only way... busy reading wiki on it now. | 21:42 |
| wxl | cron's pretty darn easy and all gnome-scheduler is is a front end to it | 21:42 |
| wxl | only other gui cron frontend out there seems to be in kde | 21:45 |
| wxl | tl;dr everyone uses cron XD | 21:46 |
| wxl | Ascavasaion: the wikipedia page pretty much gets down to the nitty gritty https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cron | 21:47 |
| Ascavasaion | Okay, file created with crontab | 21:50 |
| Ascavasaion | 01 00 * * * /usr/bin/transmission-gtk | 21:50 |
| Ascavasaion | apparently that will start it at 00:01 every night. | 21:50 |
| Ascavasaion | 11 minutes and I will know if it works hehe | 21:50 |
| Ascavasaion | I used this site... https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto#GUI_Applications | 21:51 |
| wxl | you forgot the env DISPLAY=:0 | 21:52 |
| Ascavasaion | wxl: Yes, it does seem easy... wills ee if it does now now. | 21:52 |
| Ascavasaion | 01 00 * * * env DISPLAY=:0 /usr/bin/transmission-gtk is a better one? | 21:53 |
| wxl | yup | 21:53 |
| Unit193 | Wait what on earth? | 21:54 |
| Ascavasaion | cool... 6 minutes and I will know if it works hehe | 21:54 |
| wxl | Unit193: read the link :) | 21:54 |
| Ascavasaion | Howto said... | 21:55 |
| Unit193 | wxl: I get the concept, just missed why that rather than cp'ing the file to ~/.config/autostart/ | 21:55 |
| Ascavasaion | It is possible to run gui applications via cronjobs. This can be done by telling cron which display to use. | 21:55 |
| Ascavasaion | 00 06 * * * env DISPLAY=:0 gui_appname | 21:55 |
| Unit193 | But hey. | 21:55 |
| wxl | Unit193: it's not an autostart. it's a frequency thing, apparently. (apparently) | 21:55 |
| * Unit193 nods. | 21:55 | |
| Ascavasaion | crontab -e merely openes the file for editing, or it checks syntaxt like the grup update command? | 21:57 |
| Ascavasaion | grub | 21:57 |
| Ascavasaion | ps. 4 minutes until lift off. | 21:57 |
| wxl | Ascavasaion: crontab -e edits it and then checks the syntax | 21:57 |
| Ascavasaion | wxl: Aaah, thank you... then I am astounded I got it correct AHHA | 21:57 |
| Ascavasaion | one minute | 22:00 |
| Ascavasaion | 10 seconds. | 22:00 |
| Ascavasaion | never worked | 22:01 |
| Ascavasaion | Pfft | 22:01 |
| Ascavasaion | 01 00 * * * env DISPLAY=:0 /usr/bin/transmission-gtk <== not supposed to open it at 00:01 every day, every week, every month in current graphical display? | 22:03 |
| Ascavasaion | Seems I totally misunderstood. | 22:04 |
| wxl | Ascavasaion: make sure it ran. `grep CRON /var/log/syslog` | 22:07 |
| Ascavasaion | Sep 4 00:13:01 fellowship CRON[16714]: (CRON) info (No MTA installed, discarding output) | 22:14 |
| wxl | so it ran | 22:15 |
| wxl | it would have mailed you the output but you don't have any mail transfer agent installed | 22:15 |
| wxl | ssmtp should do the trick there | 22:15 |
| Ascavasaion | It ran? not successfully hehe | 22:15 |
| wxl | it certainly tried to do what you told it to do | 22:16 |
| wxl | once i beat myself crazy about a cron job only to realize that i specified the wrong path | 22:19 |
| Ascavasaion | path is correct | 22:20 |
| Ascavasaion | Let me try something...brb | 22:20 |
| wxl | Ascavasaion: install the mta to get the debug output | 22:20 |
| wxl | Ascavasaion: you also may want to set the default shell | 22:21 |
| wxl | Ascavasaion: and make sure you edited YOUR crontab and not, e.g., roots | 22:22 |
| Ascavasaion | Okay, gnome-schedule would be needed right now.. cron is NOT as easy as everyone said. | 22:22 |
| wxl | using it to run GUI programs is kind of new | 22:22 |
| Ascavasaion | Oh, used to work before I updated fro 14 to 16 | 22:24 |
| wxl | i just did it with a different program and it worked fine | 22:24 |
| Ascavasaion | using gnome-schedule | 22:24 |
| wxl | it's 15:25 here | 22:25 |
| wxl | did: | 22:25 |
| wxl | 25 15 * * * env DISPLAY=:0 /usr/bin/kate | 22:25 |
| wxl | it ran on time. took a bit to load up | 22:25 |
| wxl | i had specified SHELL=/bin/bash | 22:25 |
| wxl | Ascavasaion: http://askubuntu.com/questions/23009/reasons-why-crontab-does-not-work | 22:28 |
| Ascavasaion | I think the answer to that is... Me...Linux... never works hehe | 22:29 |
| wxl | not with that attitude, for sure | 22:29 |
| Ascavasaion | HAAH1 | 22:32 |
| Ascavasaion | i was joking man. | 22:33 |
| wxl | i wasn't XD | 22:33 |
| Ascavasaion | I know. | 22:33 |
| wxl | anyways that's about the most useful askubuntu post i've ever seen | 22:33 |
| wxl | lots of great advice in there | 22:33 |
| wxl | the idea of dumping env and comparing it to your local env might be insightful | 22:33 |
| wxl | you could use something like mgdiff (gui) to compare | 22:35 |
| Ascavasaion | will ry that tomorrow when I wake refreshed... Need to hit the hay now... leavingeverything on so I do not lsoe it hehe | 22:36 |
| wxl | meld too perhaps | 22:36 |
| Ascavasaion | thank you for your help. | 22:36 |
| wxl | np | 22:36 |
| Ascavasaion | I appreciate it. | 22:36 |
| wxl | have a great night :) | 22:36 |
| Ascavasaion | *nods* | 22:36 |
| Ascavasaion | You have an awesome afternoon. | 22:38 |
