[02:46] <jbicha> darkxst: apparently the Printers panel in yakkety works again now; perhaps a no-change rebuild against cups was all it needed?
[02:47] <jbicha> and installing system-config-printer-gnome
[07:27] <darkxst> jbicha, ok, I wasn't able to test on the printers at work, the wifi is locked down
[07:28] <darkxst> but not sure it would require s-c-p-g now? that was only the seperate UI in that package (or should be)
[08:50] <jbicha> darkxst: we'll have to look into fixing up s-c-p for 17.04 https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/1:3.20.1-2ubuntu3
[10:16] <darkxst> jbicha, ok
[12:51] <Furai> Hey, latest system update made my ubuntu gnome into infinite boot loop.
[12:51] <Furai> Anyone aware of that?
[12:51] <Furai> Any fixes?
[13:34] <Furai> No one? Really?
[14:02] <muelli> hm Furai. it's hard to tell without having more details available.  have you tried to use the "safe mode"? I.e. select the recovery option in GRUB instead of the regular boot.
[14:10] <Furai> Yes, I did.
[14:10] <Furai> Today's update to ubuntu 16.04 had initramfs update in it.
[14:10] <Furai> I think that's what broke it.
[14:10] <Furai> It's latest ubuntu gnome.
[14:10] <Furai> I'm not on any beta channel or such.
[14:11] <Furai> In recovery mode I'm only able to run it in console.
[14:11] <Furai> Dunno where to go from there.
[14:17] <Furai> muelli ?
[14:20] <muelli> Furai: what does it mean that you are "only able to run it in console"?
[14:20] <Furai> I mean that graphic mode in some fallback doesn't even start.
[14:21] <Furai> I can run it from safe mode and go into root.
[14:21] <muelli> Furai: fair enough. can you select "continue boot" or smth?
[14:22] <Furai> I can and then it stops working. It's looping on something, some blinking text I cannot read because it's showing for few ms.
[14:23] <muelli> Furai: what happens after that few ms?
[14:23] <Furai> it lops over again
[14:24] <Furai> I'll unblacklist noevuau driver (spelled wrong) and try the graphic mode again
[14:24] <Furai> Maybe that initramfs didn't take into account dkms or something
[14:24] <Furai> And it didn't change stuff for nvidia driver
[14:25] <muelli> ah, you're using non-free software?
[14:26] <Furai> Pretty much just nvidia.
[14:26] <muelli> then I'm out.
[14:26] <Furai> Maybe some intel specific thing.
[14:26] <Furai> I've just disabled modprobe and enabled nouveau
[14:28] <Furai> Still, you could help with some generic troubleshooting.
[14:28] <Furai> Some ideas are appreciated.
[14:28] <Furai> nouveau just complained that it failed to load fecs_ienst
[15:29] <de-facto> Guys i have my contacts on a CalDAV server, i added it in evolution and i sorta have some contacts, but it seems they are outdated and do not contain all fields. How can i manually update them and also find out where the details get lost?
[15:30] <de-facto> i wasnt able to find an update button in gnome contacts or even setup a CalDAV server from within there (hence i did it in Evolution, which is the backend anyhow i guess)
[15:30] <de-facto> Any ideas how to sync and find lost details?
[15:31] <de-facto> (for example i have some IM fields with XMPP and Ring contacts for chat)
[15:32] <de-facto> those didnt appear neither in Evolution nor in Gnome Contacts
[15:32] <de-facto> im not sure if they get lost when the server answers the CalDAV or when Evolution parses them in
[15:32] <de-facto> the server is Kolab, and i can see those details in the Webinterface
[15:47] <muelli> de-facto: how do you know that your contacts "do not contain all fields"?
[16:07] <Furai> muelli, I got back to the issue.
[16:07] <Furai> And indeed it was nvidia.
[16:34] <muelli> Furai: see, non-free software is bad for you!
[16:37] <Furai> muelli, not so sure about it.
[16:38] <Furai> I had to only reinstall it.
[17:26] <de-facto> because xmpp and ring chat is missing but they show in webui of kolab

[17:34] <rajamuthukumaran> Hi I'm using Ubuntu with Gnome de. Recently I have some issue with applications name is gnome dash, only 8 letter of the app is displayed in there. Is there any way to fix this
[18:19] <sazawal_> I guess there is a change in Ubuntu installation recently. I bought a new laptop with preinstalled Windows 7. I wanted to remove Windows 7 and install Ubuntu-gnome 16.04.1. While tweaking with the partitions, it (gparted) created a default 1 MB free space at the beginning of the filesystem. And when I was starting the installation, it gave a warning that a 1 MB space must be reserved for "Reserved BIOS blabla", which I ign
[18:19] <sazawal_> ored as i MB freespace was already appearing at the beginning by default. The installation went well, and when I restarted the system, Windows Boot Manager was appearing in the boot menu, even after removing windows. And none of the options in boot menu is letting me start Ubuntu. What is wrong here?
[18:49] <de-facto> Bios vs UEFI?
[18:50] <de-facto> MSDOS partitions vs GPT partitions?
[18:54] <sazawal_> de-facto, I am not sure about these terms. So I did something and it worked now. I clicked on "New Partition Table" in gparted before making the partitions. Now, there is no 1 MB freespace at the beginning, and everything works. Except that I still get Windows Boot Manager in the boot menu, which leads to nothing.
[19:14] <sazawal_> de-facto, I just found out that it is not UEFI but BIOS
[22:08] <tyrog> I have an issue (don't know how to call it accurately) in Ubuntu GNOME. Whenever I search for something in the GNOME Shell the results from the Settings app are shown only in English, although I'm using a different language as my system language.
[22:09] <tyrog> No matter what language I choose to be the System language, those results always appear in English. Is there a way to make them show in my native language? I don't have such problem with other distros running GNOME3. Thank you
[22:14] <tyrog> anyone?
