| Kilos | of course | 09:28 |
| Langjan | mooi so! | 09:28 |
| Kilos | happiest ive been in 20 years maybe | 09:28 |
| Langjan | great news, wonderful - happy for you | 09:28 |
| Kilos | only the stupid woman is trying to fatten me up | 09:29 |
| Kilos | says im too skinny | 09:29 |
| Langjan | they like a bit of padding and you like the pudding so why complain? | 09:30 |
| Kilos | because if i get fat i have to carry the extra weight you know | 09:30 |
| Kilos | and my feet will get tired | 09:31 |
| Langjan | Correct, so just take it easy and eat the right stuff | 09:31 |
| Langjan | Can I worry you with a niggle? | 09:31 |
| Kilos | well, convince a woman in love that all the lekker goed isnt all healthy | 09:32 |
| Kilos | yessir anytime | 09:32 |
| Langjan | thks | 09:32 |
| Langjan | I broke Juanita's system | 09:32 |
| Langjan | it wont login | 09:32 |
| Kilos | kde? | 09:32 |
| Langjan | Lmga! Have been googling solutions since yestarday | 09:33 |
| Kilos | ai! | 09:33 |
| Langjan | unity of course | 09:33 |
| Kilos | tell me what happens | 09:33 |
| Langjan | 14.04 | 09:33 |
| Kilos | so where does it stop | 09:34 |
| Kilos | im sure we have been this route before | 09:34 |
| Kilos | do you get to boot prompt | 09:34 |
| Langjan | It opens in the login screen, then when I put the password it goes blac and returns to login, does not say wrong password | 09:34 |
| Kilos | ok | 09:35 |
| Langjan | yes I get boot prompt | 09:35 |
| Kilos | ctrl+alt+F3 | 09:35 |
| Langjan | let me just reboot, am running on live cd | 09:35 |
| Kilos | then sudo aptitude reinstall ubuntu-desktop | 09:35 |
| Kilos | either that or your graphics isnt working again | 09:36 |
| Langjan | it first says login incorrect, then accepts password on second round | 09:38 |
| Langjan | aptitude command not found | 09:39 |
| Kilos | sudp apt install aptitude | 09:39 |
| superfly | just use apt-get instead | 09:39 |
| superfly | Kilos: no man | 09:39 |
| superfly | don't use aptitude anymore | 09:40 |
| Kilos | oh | 09:40 |
| Kilos | oh my | 09:40 |
| Kilos | ok | 09:40 |
| Kilos | i use it all the time | 09:40 |
| superfly | if you're on 15.10+ use "apt" and on older systems just use "apt-get" | 09:40 |
| superfly | only use aptitude if you're using the task system | 09:40 |
| Langjan | 14.04 works on apt only | 09:40 |
| Kilos | sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop --reinstall | 09:40 |
| Kilos | ya i use apt and aptitude still | 09:41 |
| Langjan | ive been here but lets try again | 09:41 |
| Kilos | i need to learn how apt does reinstall | 09:42 |
| Langjan | ok its done | 09:42 |
| Kilos | ok and | 09:43 |
| Kilos | do you know what graphics it has | 09:43 |
| Langjan | nope | 09:43 |
| Kilos | if it doesnt work on reboot now you might need to reinstall the graphics driver | 09:43 |
| Langjan | ok sudo reboot? | 09:44 |
| Kilos | yip | 09:44 |
| Langjan | by the way, I installed gnome desktop after googling | 09:44 |
| Kilos | is that what caused it | 09:45 |
| Langjan | no | 09:45 |
| Langjan | it was seeking a workaround | 09:45 |
| Kilos | have you at long last given up on unity | 09:45 |
| Langjan | it started when I ran a command, let me find it | 09:45 |
| Kilos | debbie has 14.04 kde on her lappy | 09:46 |
| Kilos | she has no other choice | 09:46 |
| Kilos | im bigger than her | 09:46 |
| Langjan | I ran install clamtk | 09:47 |
| Langjan | then it went to the login screen and has never been beyond that | 09:47 |
| Kilos | thats anivirus | 09:47 |
| Langjan | yes | 09:47 |
| Kilos | so is it rebooting? | 09:48 |
| Langjan | its booting but same result, login screen and does not react to password | 09:48 |
| Kilos | ok | 09:48 |
| Kilos | sudo apt install gdm | 09:48 |
| Langjan | it does login incorrect first time every time | 09:50 |
| Langjan | gdm is already newest version | 09:50 |
| Kilos | oh my you even broke that | 09:50 |
| Kilos | is it loggin in on lightdm or gdm | 09:51 |
| Langjan | perhaps the "login incorrect" at first attempt is part of the problem? | 09:51 |
| Langjan | dont know about lightdm or gdm, how do I tell? | 09:52 |
| Kilos | i remember i had hassles with lightdm but using gdm sorted that | 09:52 |
| Kilos | we ask the guys | 09:52 |
| Kilos | or google | 09:52 |
| Kilos | maybe there is some command to change desktop managers | 09:53 |
| Langjan | I have more or less exhausted my google abilities | 09:53 |
| Kilos | sudo apt-get install gdm --reinstall | 09:53 |
| Langjan | running... | 09:54 |
| Langjan | done | 09:54 |
| Kilos | re boot | 09:54 |
| Langjan | but did not download any data? | 09:55 |
| Kilos | ok | 09:55 |
| Langjan | it said one package but zero contents | 09:55 |
| Langjan | rebooting anyway | 09:55 |
| Kilos | https://www.google.co.za/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwiqqqrJwP_OAhXJkZQKHbyCB-YQFggcMAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.webupd8.org%2F2011%2F07%2Fhow-to-switch-between-gdm-lightdm-or.html&usg=AFQjCNE8K4GOKQAVCcYV82xYQTySz7p3Rg&sig2=nR1SEvsfP8ScnqOGTq7w4w | 09:56 |
| Kilos | read that and see if they give a command to switch dm's | 09:56 |
| Langjan | Lets have a lok thks | 09:56 |
| Kilos | i gotta do something quick then will be beack | 09:57 |
| Langjan | ok | 09:59 |
| Langjan | Why do I think that the refusal of password in terminal the first time every time has something to do with the problem? | 10:02 |
| Langjan | OK I'm in! Tremendously brilliant Kilos no wonder Debs loves you so much | 10:02 |
| Kilos | hahaha | 10:06 |
| Kilos | i didnt go anywhere, i was hoping you would fix it while i was "away" | 10:07 |
| Kilos | its some hassle in the desktop manager | 10:07 |
| Kilos | im tempted to go to 16.04 maybe tonight | 10:07 |
| Kilos | even though my kde is trouble free | 10:10 |
| Kilos | i want to see all the new stuff working | 10:11 |
| Kilos | http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2016/04/10-things-to-do-after-installing-ubuntu-16-04-lts | 10:11 |
| Kilos | thats for you my oom | 10:11 |
| Langjan | Well let me know how it goes, I think I will stik with 14.04 a bit more | 10:12 |
| Kilos | ill keep one drive on 14.04 just in case | 10:12 |
| Langjan | gotta go eat, lekker aand daar vir julle en groete | 10:12 |
| Langjan | may thks for the help | 10:13 |
| Kilos | enjoy en groete aan almal daar' | 10:13 |
