imran-mateok where do i file bugs or issue for suggestions???08:56

imran-mateme?09:17
masnellthey left already09:17
imran-matei had this strange behaviour in Ubuntu that prevented me downloading Google Chrome09:18
imran-matebut on mate it didn't do so09:19
masnellon MATE did you use the Software Boutique to install Chrome or just go to the website to do the download/install process?09:20
imran-matewebsite09:20
masnellusing FireFox in both cases?09:20
imran-mateyup09:20
imran-matethat is why i came to Mate09:21
imran-mateit works here09:22
masnellthe whole MATE Welcome and Software Boutique is a great value add - makes getting a new machine setup for someone super fast/easy - plus MATE Tweak means you can satisfy their UI preferences between Redmond/Mutiny etc09:22
imran-matemutiny is Unity09:23

armandociao a tutti14:40
armandovolevo chiedere una cosa...esiste un modo per poter impostare la potenza del processore fino ad un massimo del 90% della sua potenza?14:42
armandoil fatto è che ho un portatile che si suriscalda subito.. e vorrei impostarlo in modo tala da non mandare mai al max la cpu14:43
WobboHey all. Will there be a 16.10?14:46
armandohi14:51
armandosomeone can help me?14:51
armandowhen i use my pc i need to set the cpu up to 90% of his power.. is possible to do it?14:54
armandomy operative system is ubuntu mate 16.0414:55
natten_armando: so you never want to utilize >90% cpu? Why?14:56
armandoyes because my laptop is old and it overheats easily14:58
natten_i know cpulimit can do this on a perprocess basis, but i have no idea on how to do it globally14:59
WobboI am wondering, is there a raspberry-pi 16.10?14:59
masnellarmando: have you checked / cleaned internals? New thermal paste?14:59
natten_armando: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=992706 this guide sets up a daemon that checks for processes that uses a lot of cpu and limits them.15:00
armandoi think i must put a new thermal paste...15:01
armandonow i try to follow the guide15:01
armandothanks :) :)15:01

Dooley_da_VulcanHello, anyone here that can help me out with mount point problems or questions17:46
Akulimounting is easy17:46
Akuliwhat problems are you having?17:46
Dooley_da_Vulcanyeah, I thought so17:47
Dooley_da_VulcanI had a 120 gb ssd with ubuntu-mate, I cloned it to a 240 gb ssd using dd then physically swapped the drives. boom booted up and my system is all there just fine17:48
Dooley_da_VulcanI go in to extend my partition to make use of the full size of the drive and it shows my mount point as:17:49
Dooley_da_VulcanMounted on /, /var/lib/lxd/devices/desktop/disk.home-dooley, /var/lib/lxd/devices/desktop/disk.tmp, /var/lib/lxd/shmounts17:49
Akuliwhat does lsblk say?17:49
Dooley_da_Vulcanwhat the hell has happened? lsblk shows /17:50
Dooley_da_Vulcanonly17:50
Dooley_da_Vulcancould something have happened to my other drive and I did not notice before I copied it. I have been up all night and forgot to look at it ahead of time17:50
Akuliby default the installer creates only / and swap17:51
Akuliwhich is really all you need17:51
Dooley_da_Vulcanright I know. so how would I have ended up with all the other?17:51
Akuliwhere do you see that stuff?17:51
Akulirunning mount without args?17:51
Dooley_da_Vulcanany idea, besides late nights up all night learning linux?17:51
Dooley_da_Vulcanin gparted17:52
Akulidon't trust gui tools :)17:52
Dooley_da_Vulcanunder mount point17:52
Dooley_da_Vulcanlsblk shows just the one "/"17:52
Akulii believe you only have /17:52
Akulidoes it show a swap?17:53
Akulimine is like this http://termbin.com/x6hv17:53
Dooley_da_Vulcanso is my way of cloning drives about the easiest? I know you waste time copying blank space but when your sizing up it is because your filling up and I prefer to error on the side of caution17:53
Akulicloning drives like you did is just fine17:54
Akuliwindows hates it, but real operating systems don't :)17:54
Akuliis your new hard drive bigger than your old hard drive?17:54
Dooley_da_Vulcanhttps://thepb.in/p/Vmh0VD4EMg6t417:55
Dooley_da_Vulcanyes17:55
Dooley_da_Vulcanjust haven't sized it out to make use of full drive17:55
Akuliif you want to you can boot from the installation disk/usb and resize your sda2 to fill the rest of the disk17:55
Akuliyou can't resize it while it's being used :)17:56
Akulii don't know which tool to recommend for that though, last time i needed to do that i used gparted and it worked just fine17:56
Dooley_da_Vulcanor just make another partition17:56
Dooley_da_VulcanI use dd17:57
Dooley_da_VulcanI just dd my ISO to the USB and done17:57
Akuliyeah, thats fine17:57
Dooley_da_VulcanI am figuring this out as I go, been using it for about 6 months17:57
Akulilet's see.. about half of your disk is empty space17:57
Akuliyou could make a new partition there and mount that as /home17:58
Akuliif you want a separate /home for some reason this might be a handy way to do that17:58
Dooley_da_VulcanI tried linux about 4 times in the past but got upset because I didn't catch on as fast as I wanted. I had used MS for over 30 years and never really noticed how much time was spent learning17:58
Dooley_da_VulcanThat is what I was thinking and just move my home stuff there17:59
Dooley_da_Vulcanyou ever see a show called Category5.tv17:59
Dooley_da_VulcanI mean unlike a magnetic drive i believe if a SSD crashes it all goes....lol18:00
Dooley_da_VulcanI thank you for your assist, have a good weekend18:01
Dooley_da_VulcanAkuli: I am back, thinking,  I may just blank the larger drive and make it one partition and move my home folder there completely. Have my UB-MT on the 120 GB ...plenty and more. and my Home on a separate drive. that way if I want to  change or try flavor I just change the one drive out/18:19
Dooley_da_VulcanMake more sense that way I think18:20
Akuliif i was you i'd just expand the / partition18:20
Dooley_da_VulcanI am more likely to use the larger  for my files than I am for system files was my thought18:20
Akulicreating a new /home also works, but you need to take care of moving stuff in your existing /home there and editing /etc/fstab18:21
Akulii've never done that so i don't know about it in more detail18:21
Dooley_da_VulcanI watch a tech show (almost 2 years now) and he covered it once real well.   http://www.category5.tv/episodes/337.php18:22
Dooley_da_VulcanThe show has lots to offer and he is live once a week, this is his 10th year18:22
Dooley_da_Vulcanthat is the episode where he moves the home folder18:22
Dooley_da_Vulcanhe did an episode a couple of weeks ago it was a 360 episode 2 hours long18:23
Dooley_da_Vulcanreally cool18:23
