DagDaWildDogI installed a bazillion libs to make all my GOG games work. so far so good! then when I rebooted, I get a black screen after GRUB, ie when X and my DE is running. but TTY works. so I reboot and try, on a whim, using the previous kernel. it totally works now! how can I do one or both of these: figure out why the normal kernel won't work, and/or make this kernel the default at boot?09:20

DagDaWildDogcan windows remember their position, size, or both in mate?13:52
DagDaWildDogi dont see it in mate-tweaks or windows13:52
ouroumov_DagDaWildDog, I think there's an option somewhere that save windows open when you close session13:52
ouroumov_DagDaWildDog, try in dconf: org -> mate -> desktop -> session check "auto save session"13:57
DagDaWildDogoh yeah, I tried that effect once13:57
DagDaWildDogit was annoying13:58
DagDaWildDogI mean more like, when I close a window13:58
DagDaWildDogand open it again, it should be in the same spot13:58
ouroumov_There's no built-in functionality to do that13:58
ouroumov_But, Marco is supposed to play nice with "wmctrl", so you can check that out13:59
pi__test14:07
ouroumov_ok14:07
pi__hi everyone14:08
ouroumov_hi pi__14:08
pi__i'm trying to install a vncserver my ubuntu mate 16.04 os but no luck yet14:09
pi__tried tightvncserver14:09
ouroumov_Doesn't Vino work on the RPi build?14:10
pi__is Vino a software? :)14:10
ouroumov_it's the default VNC server for Ubuntu14:12
ouroumov_sudo apt install vino14:12
ouroumov_Then /usr/lib/vino/vino-server14:13
pi__i'm no good at command stuff :(14:13
pi__wgat do u mean by "Then /usr/lib/vino/vino-server"14:13
ouroumov_That's the command to start the VNC server14:14
ouroumov_When you're in your terminal14:14
ouroumov_Just type: /usr/lib/vino/vino-server14:14
pi__is it already installed in ubuntu mate?14:14
ouroumov_I'm not sure14:14
ouroumov_If it's not just install it using: sudo apt install vino14:15
pi__ok14:15
pi__then how can i uninstall tightvncserver?14:15
ouroumov_what command did you use to install it?14:16
pi__sudo apt-get install tightvncserver14:16
ouroumov_Then do: sudo apt-get remove --purge tightvncserver14:16
pi__let me try14:18
pi__it says "** (vino-server:5344): WARNING **: The desktop sharing service is not enabled, so it should not be run.14:22
pi__"14:22
pi__what should i do now?14:22
ouroumov_pi__, run the command: vino-preferences14:23
pi__ok i ticked14:23
pi__sharing14:23
pi__ok i retried and now i have some text on terminal window14:25
pi__the last sentence is "Listening IPv4://0.0.0.0:5900"14:25
pi__does that mean it works?14:25
ouroumov_yes14:25
pi__can i close terminal window?14:26
pi__should i do any more setting?14:28
G__81hi is it possible to change the alt + tab behavior after i change the window manager to compiz?14:28
pi__does the vino has a GUI?14:29
G__81i dont like the default alt+tab after i change to compiz. All windows keep scrolling when i press alt+tab and it kind of confuses me. Is there a way to change that behavior to something like what we have in windows 7 ?14:29
ouroumov_G__81, I think yes14:30
ouroumov_You have to install ccsm14:30
ouroumov_compiz-config-settings-manager14:30
G__81yeah i have that installed. In compiz-settings-manager what do i select to get the change in behavior ?14:31
ouroumov_pi__, no gui afaik14:31
ouroumov_pi__, and you can do some more config, but is it really necessary?14:32
pi__when try to connect ubuntu mate from a Windows 7 pc via RealVNC viewer i get an error14:35
pi__it says "unable to connect to VNC server using your chosen security setting"14:36
pi__i do not know what to do14:36
ouroumov_Well, it's Windows14:36
ouroumov_You're on your own sorry, I haven't used that stuff for years14:37
pi__u mean u did not use Windows?14:37
ouroumov_yeah14:38
pi__oh then thank you for your interest14:38
pi__i'll make some more search14:39

atZrRarouroumov_, ya anyway, I'm quite sure his employer will pass him his login credentials, what method to use for legitimation, that kind of stuff, won't be hard to figure out on one's own ;)18:31
ouroumov_atZrRar, why do you assume it's to do with his job? :)18:33
ouroumov_I'm operating a VPN myself.18:34
sixwheeledbeastconfigure a VPN is a vague question to answer by itself really18:37
