| olscumpy | where are terminal profiles saved? I got my terminal all pretty and I want to copy it to another computer | 06:11 |
| olscumpy | it's not in .gconf like askubuntu says, also | 06:12 |
| alkisg | Nowadays gconf isn't used much, they migrated to gsettings | 06:13 |
| alkisg | To see if something uses gsettings or not, run : dconf watch / | 06:13 |
| alkisg | Then do changes (like, profile changes from the menu) | 06:13 |
| alkisg | And see if the dconf watch command outputs the changed keys | 06:13 |
| alkisg | If so, it's using gsettings, and you can export/import them using gsettings list-recursively etc | 06:13 |
| olscumpy | cool, thanks | 06:15 |
| olscumpy | oh, it's in /org/mate/terminal/profiles/default/, how could I NOT have guessed that ;D | 06:17 |
| alkisg | :) | 06:18 |
| alkisg | There's also dconf-editor if you need it | 06:18 |
| alkisg | (like the older gconf-editor) | 06:18 |
| olscumpy | I've opened that a couple times, poked around a bit, and closed it, confused | 06:18 |
| olscumpy | it's editing those text .conf files yes? | 06:18 |
| alkisg | There are not text files anymore | 06:18 |
| alkisg | gconf had text files | 06:18 |
| alkisg | the newer one, dconf, has a binary file | 06:19 |
| alkisg | And dconf-editor edits it... similar to windows regedit | 06:19 |
| olscumpy | ahhh, ok | 06:19 |
| olscumpy | the thing I found most confusing, I guess, was that this has what feels like a random assortment of configurable things in it. mostly things I don't need to configure | 06:20 |
| olscumpy | it seems like ubuntu-mate has a gui configurator for most things. except compton haha | 06:20 |
| alkisg | Well, that's what dconf is for; for whatever program to be able to store whatever setting | 06:20 |
| alkisg | It's not just for mate | 06:21 |
| olscumpy | what do you stop dconf watch with, ctrl c? | 06:22 |
| alkisg | Yes | 06:23 |
| olscumpy | hm, how would I actually copy this profile out to my netbook? | 06:33 |
| olscumpy | if it's all in one big binary | 06:33 |
| alkisg | gsettings list-recursively | 06:36 |
| TheMuso | Or dconf dump /path/to/settings | 06:39 |
| TheMuso | then use cat data.txt | dconf load | 06:39 |
| TheMuso | on the other end | 06:39 |
| olscumpy | fancy | 06:41 |
| olscumpy | this time when I break my system I'll be ready with backupped things! thanks y'all | 06:41 |

| zetwal | hello all. i'm running ubuntu mate 16.10 and can't find the printer installation interface (either in the administration sub-menu or by searching). | 16:07 |
| nomic | ask in #ubuntu | 16:09 |
| nomic | cos its busier | 16:09 |
| nomic | and its a general problem | 16:09 |
| zetwal | thanks! | 16:10 |
| nomic | i plug printer into xubuntu, using the word processor & it automatically recognises | 16:11 |
| nomic | should on usb with any package | 16:11 |
| nomic | i don't think you need to "install" | 16:11 |
| nomic | run your word processor, | 16:12 |
| nomic | plug printer in -- it should know what it is | 16:12 |
| nomic | usb | 16:12 |
| ouroumov | zetwal, don't ask in #Ubuntu | 16:17 |
| ouroumov | 16.10 is not supported | 16:17 |
| ouroumov | arf too late | 16:17 |
| sixwheeledbeast | zetwal: this is the correct channel for your question | 16:18 |
| nomic | = general problem | 16:18 |

| Gallomimia | how do i make it so the greeter does *NOT* give my username to everyone that walks by while screen is locked or no one is logged in? | 17:15 |
| sixwheeledbeast | Gallomimia: System > Administration > Users and Groups | 17:55 |
| Gallomimia | sixwheeledbeast: i found that just after asking... i don't think i saw it in there | 17:55 |
| sixwheeledbeast | change your name | 17:57 |
| Gallomimia | i don't want to change my name. | 17:57 |
| sixwheeledbeast | Well that is your username shown on the lock screen | 17:58 |
| Gallomimia | it is. | 17:58 |
| Gallomimia | i want it not shown at all. | 17:58 |
| Gallomimia | i suppose... the lock screen not so much as the login screen. it gives a list of users i can login as. would rather it made whoever type it | 17:59 |
| jsphillips86 | I need help. Can't install Wine. Get this error. https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/SeLczjgn/ | 18:02 |
| sixwheeledbeast | Gallomimia: The login screen and the lock screen are different but I am not aware of any other way to do what you want | 18:03 |
| Gallomimia | "other" way, you suggested I change my username. That doesn't hide the username, it changes it to something else | 18:04 |
| Gallomimia | jsphillips86: uh, well what version of wine did you want to install? | 18:04 |
| Gallomimia | 1.6 is quite old i think | 18:05 |
| Gallomimia | oh, that's the one i have installed. i don't recall having any error like that when i installed last time | 18:05 |
| jsphillips86 | I tried sudo apt-get install wine and the instructions here: https://wiki.winehq.org/Ubuntu | 18:06 |
| sixwheeledbeast | Yep that what a imagined changing the username from your name to not your name. | 18:06 |
| Gallomimia | really its a matter of finding out what dependencies aren't being installed. they have ambiguous names due to lacking info about your system's architecture i do believe | 18:06 |
| Gallomimia | sixwheeledbeast: i already did that when i started using ubuntu | 18:06 |
| sixwheeledbeast | ok | 18:07 |
| sixwheeledbeast | jsphillips86: is the ppa installed correctly? | 18:09 |
| jsphillips86 | yeah. No errors on update either | 18:10 |
| sixwheeledbeast | In Software and Updates it should be listed in Other Softweare | 18:10 |
| jsphillips86 | Yep, it is there | 18:11 |
| sixwheeledbeast | install -f ? dpkg configure -a ? | 18:13 |
| jsphillips86 | https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/FhysRvOd/ | 18:14 |
| jsphillips86 | looks like I can't install it because fonts-droid has no installation candidate | 18:22 |
| jsphillips86 | But I added their PPA and according to their site, the stable release is 1.8.4 instead of 1.6 | 18:25 |
