[02:33] <littlediobolic> Hey really quick question for anyone who knows. Im having issues with GRUB I believe. Sometimes when I turn on my Ubuntu MATE machine I just get caught at a grey screen. After a few reboots it boots into GRUB fine. But idk why its doing that. If anyone could help that would be amazing. thanks
[03:21] <sdhnlk> Hello
[05:52] <ratchetmeche> hi
[05:53] <alkisg> Hello
[05:54] <ratchetmeche> Just installed 16.04, loving it. I was using mint, but I think I like this better
[06:32] <billybigrigger> hey all, i'm having issues launching update-manager, with a python/gtk3 import error...this box is a 16.04 machine, but it looks like software boutique is grabbing packages for 16.10?
[06:51] <alkisg> billybigrigger: what's the output of: apt policy mate-desktop
[06:53] <billybigrigger> ill check
[06:53] <billybigrigger> alkisg: brb
[06:54] <billybigrigger> alkisg: it's version 1.12.1
[06:55] <alkisg> billybigrigger: no, the whole output. put it to paste.ubuntu.com and give us the link here.
[06:56] <billybigrigger> it's 4 lines there's not much info there, but ok
[06:57] <billybigrigger> http://pastebin.ca/3729656
[06:58] <billybigrigger> alkisg:
[06:58] <lozusr> https://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2016/10/17/%23lubuntu.html
[06:58] <lozusr> What's this?
[06:58] <alkisg> billybigrigger: ok, it's the correct version 1.12.1-1 coming from the correct repository, so it's 16.04 and not 16.10
[06:58] <billybigrigger> but software boutique is telling me that's grabbing packages for 16.10
[06:59] <billybigrigger> ill just paste the update-manager error
[06:59] <alkisg> http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=mate-desktop shows that 16.10 has version 1.16.0-1
[06:59] <billybigrigger> ya, well somehow i have gtk3 mixed up on this 16.04 machine, gtk3 didn't come till 16.10 though?
[06:59] <alkisg> lozusr: it is the logs of the lubuntu channel, you can join that channel by writing /join #lubuntu
[07:00] <lozusr> alkisg, I know, but it's neonazi content.
[07:00] <alkisg> lozusr: it's normal irc spam, but why ask here and not in #freenode or in #lubuntu?
[07:00] <lozusr> They shouldn't be logging neonazis.
[07:00] <billybigrigger> alkisg: http://pastebin.ca/3729662
[07:00] <alkisg> It's completely off topic here
[07:01] <lozusr> alkisg, Well if they're not going to regulate the channel they need to stop the logs.
[07:01] <lozusr> Now they have neonazi spam made permanent in the logs.
[07:01] <alkisg> billybigrigger: update-manager is an ubuntu application, also used by ubuntu-mate, and uses gtk3, like many other apps
[07:02] <alkisg> lozusr: well, report it to the correct place then, either #freenode or #lubuntu, here it's not the irc channel that you see in that log
[07:02] <lozusr> https://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2016/10/17/%23lubuntu.html
[07:02] <lozusr> I just reported it to #freenode
[07:02] <alkisg> lozusr: this is the ubuntu-mate channel, not the lubuntu channel
[07:02] <alkisg> OK, no need to talk about it here though
[08:06] <ali1234> those idiots spammed their rubbish here too
[08:07] <ali1234> they hit all the popular channels
[09:20] <lowkey_> Hi wanted to inform you that I was unable to unlock the encryption after my installation of 16.04.1 amd64 with norwegian keyboard I assume it is caused by only recognize US keyboards during boot
[09:22] <lowkey_> *recognizing
[09:25] <lowkey_> Was also unable to overwrite the previous partitions in the install visard. some thing about already a root partition or what ever
[09:59] <alkisg> lowkey_: things that are not related to the desktop environment (i.e. mate), should be reported to the ubuntu bug trackers, launchpad etc
[13:22] <Guest55540> jacky
[13:23] <Guest55540> need help guys
[13:24] <jacky__> thank you
[13:26] <lowkey_> no need it will never be fixed and if it is it will be unfixed again in a month or so that is how this always was and will be
[13:49] <miguel> hi there
[13:49] <Guest54550> hi there
[14:00] <nazareno> Hi, where can I find my file, transfered via bluetooth?
[14:02] <nazareno> I looked in / home / nazareno / Public but can not find it there
[14:03] <nazareno> I don't know where are the files transferreds via bluetooth...
[14:04] <r00tobo> nazareno, it depends on what's the item you transferred =p
[14:04] <r00tobo> if its a picture then it will be in the Picture folder of your home dir
[14:05] <nazareno> is a picture, but I can't find it...
[14:06] <r00tobo> are you sure the transferring went successfully ?
[14:06] <nazareno> yes
[14:08] <masnell> nazareno Try ; find $HOME -iname '<the name>'
[14:09] <nazareno> it's a command for a terminal?
[14:09] <masnell> sorry, yes, terminal command
[14:10] <nazareno> ok
[14:10] <masnell> can try *.ext or name.* also
[14:10] <masnell> in <the name>
[14:12] <masnell> I don't use it, but if you open caja to your home directory, there is a search function there
[14:13] <masnell> also
[14:13] <nazareno> it says: /home/nazareno/.cache/obexd/postre.jpg
[14:15] <nazareno> Thanks! The problem is solved!
[14:15] <masnell> so .cache is hidden in caja, if you do ctrl-h it will toggle show/hide hidden files/directories.
[14:15] <nazareno> ok, I found it!
[14:15] <masnell> great
[14:15] <nazareno> Thankyou!
[14:16] <nazareno> Best regards, from Argentina!
[14:17] <alkisg> nazareno: that's the cache; the file should also be in a real location like Downloads
[14:18] <nazareno> ok, I will find there too...
[14:20] <masnell> alkisg: could be a bug given the obexd directory under cache, else would expect a ~/obexd directory - i will try to do tmrw a test and log a bug if it's a default config problem
[14:21] <alkisg> masnell: obexd is the library that handles the transfer; putting it to cache before handing it out to caja sounds like a good plan
[14:22] <alkisg> It's not the end receiver; it's the library
[14:24] <masnell> alkisg: OK. thx for the clarification. will check it out n do the necessary if there is an issue
[14:24] <nazareno> Good bye guys! Thankyou again! Best Regards, from Argentina!
[14:24] <alkisg> bb nazareno
[14:25] <nazareno> :-)

[15:29] <nomic> its not an ubuntu issue
[15:29] <nomic> ask somewhere that deals with firefox
[15:29] <mate|98083> it only happen in ubuntu, so, yes, yes it is.
[15:30] <nomic> check you have enough disk space
[15:30] <nomic> ask on ubuntu forums
[15:30] <nomic> ask in #ubuntu

[16:44] <titus_> many thanks
[16:50] <titus_> Checking for a new Ubuntu release
[16:50] <titus_> No new release found
[16:51] <ouroumov__> hm

[16:52] <titus_> titus@titus-H61MGV3:~$ sudo do-release-upgrade
[16:52] <titus_> [sudo] password for titus:

[16:56] <alkisg> titus_: can you run the command that I said, and tell us the result?
[16:56] <alkisg> Because if you have Prompt=LTS in that configuration file, then you can't get 16.10 without changing the configuration
[16:57] <titus_> titus@titus-H61MGV3:~$ greq Prompt/etc/update-manager/release-upgrades

[17:11] <alkisg> guest-nz1u7r: we don't speak russian, sorry
[17:12] <alkisg> guest-nz1u7r: that probably means that they want you to register your nickname...
[17:13] <guest-nz1u7r> thx
[17:27] <RFleming> did something break with acahi-dnsconfd?
[17:28] <RFleming> I'm trying to do an upgrade from 16.04.1 to 16.10 (cus I can), and avahi-dnsconfd fails to unpack and pooches the upgrade
[17:29] <RFleming> seems to be in launchpad already: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/avahi/+bug/1634061
[18:22] <stomith> installed 16.10 from netboot.iso and don´t have ´System-Tools > Display´. What software package contains the Display settings?
[18:41] <dbz2k> hello
[20:47] <joem86> Hi, I use an alternative keyboard layout. I can manually set my keyboard layout to colemak just fine. When I reboot my layout is always qwerty, even though colemak is at the top of the list. This didn't seem to happen in 14.04. Any ideas?
[21:22] <alkisg> joem86: what's the output of this? grep XKB /etc/default/keyboard
[21:24] <joem86> @alkisg http://pastebin.com/EirYrP59
[21:24] <alkisg> joem86: does it happen if you switch to the guest session?
[21:24] <alkisg> (i.e., trying to see if it's a user setting or a system setting)
[21:25] <alkisg> (you can check now, if you know how to activate the guest session)
[21:38] <joem86> I'll see if I can do it without logging out of my current session
[21:39] <joem86> just tried the guest session. The keyboard was set properly
[21:39] <joem86> I'm not sure what it is about my session
[21:39] <alkisg> joem86: then the problem is that you tried to use gnome (mate) keyboard settings :)
[21:39] <alkisg> Those are set in gsettings, you can simply reset them...
[21:39] <joem86> I'll give that a try
[21:41] <alkisg> Something like: `gsettings reset-recursively org.mate.peripherals-keyboard-xkb` and then logout/login
[21:41] <alkisg> Ah and possibly `gsettings reset-recursively org.gnome.desktop.input-sources` as well
