[03:10] <jay_> Crazy
[03:38] <sfkjjj> if any of the ubuntu mate developers are in here right now
[03:38] <sfkjjj> I just want to say thanks for such a good distro
[03:38] <sfkjjj> it's teh first time I've ever used Linux and not been worried about stability / security of my install
[09:20] <DagDaWildDog> I 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?
[09:55] <korpa> hola, como puedo acceder al centro de software ubuntu
[09:57] <DagDaWildDog> korpa, en Mate Welcome, clic en Software, y en Software.... ah, adios
[13:42] <nomic> anyone know how to switch screen workspaces in mate desktop
[13:42] <nomic> there does not appear to be icon
[13:42] <nomic> "workspace switcher"
[13:42] <nomic> doew not do anything
[13:46] <ouroumov_> nomic, it's supposed to
[13:46] <ouroumov_> Also CTRL+ALT+Arrows
[13:47] <nomic> bottom right
[13:47] <nomic> didn't see
[13:47] <nomic> is on bottom rite of screen
[13:47] <ouroumov_> Yeah
[13:47] <ouroumov_> Traditional place
[13:47] <nomic> yeah
[13:47] <nomic> but it was obscured by something
[13:47] <nomic> plant
[13:47] <nomic> thnks
[13:49] <nomic> cannot fault mate
[13:49] <nomic> nowhere
[13:49] <nomic> 'ubuntu lite'  I call it
[13:50] <nomic> is excellent
[13:51] <nomic> so now know the key ctrl-alt <>  tyvm .. even better
[13:52] <ouroumov_>  ^^
[13:52] <DagDaWildDog> can windows remember their position, size, or both in mate?
[13:52] <DagDaWildDog> i dont see it in mate-tweaks or windows
[13:52] <ouroumov_> DagDaWildDog, I think there's an option somewhere that save windows open when you close session
[13:57] <ouroumov_> DagDaWildDog, try in dconf: org -> mate -> desktop -> session check "auto save session"
[13:57] <DagDaWildDog> oh yeah, I tried that effect once
[13:58] <DagDaWildDog> it was annoying
[13:58] <DagDaWildDog> I mean more like, when I close a window
[13:58] <DagDaWildDog> and open it again, it should be in the same spot
[13:58] <ouroumov_> There's no built-in functionality to do that
[13:59] <ouroumov_> But, Marco is supposed to play nice with "wmctrl", so you can check that out
[14:07] <pi__> test
[14:07] <ouroumov_> ok
[14:08] <pi__> hi everyone
[14:08] <ouroumov_> hi pi__
[14:09] <pi__> i'm trying to install a vncserver my ubuntu mate 16.04 os but no luck yet
[14:09] <pi__> tried tightvncserver
[14:10] <ouroumov_> Doesn't Vino work on the RPi build?
[14:10] <pi__> is Vino a software? :)
[14:12] <ouroumov_> it's the default VNC server for Ubuntu
[14:12] <ouroumov_> sudo apt install vino
[14:13] <ouroumov_> Then /usr/lib/vino/vino-server
[14:13] <pi__> i'm no good at command stuff :(
[14:13] <pi__> wgat do u mean by "Then /usr/lib/vino/vino-server"
[14:14] <ouroumov_> That's the command to start the VNC server
[14:14] <ouroumov_> When you're in your terminal
[14:14] <ouroumov_> Just type: /usr/lib/vino/vino-server
[14:14] <pi__> is it already installed in ubuntu mate?
[14:14] <ouroumov_> I'm not sure
[14:15] <ouroumov_> If it's not just install it using: sudo apt install vino
[14:15] <pi__> ok
[14:15] <pi__> then how can i uninstall tightvncserver?
[14:16] <ouroumov_> what command did you use to install it?
[14:16] <pi__> sudo apt-get install tightvncserver
[14:16] <ouroumov_> Then do: sudo apt-get remove --purge tightvncserver
[14:18] <pi__> let me try
[14:22] <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?
[14:23] <ouroumov_> pi__, run the command: vino-preferences
[14:23] <pi__> ok i ticked
[14:23] <pi__> sharing
[14:25] <pi__> ok i retried and now i have some text on terminal window
[14:25] <pi__> the last sentence is "Listening IPv4://0.0.0.0:5900"
[14:25] <pi__> does that mean it works?
[14:25] <ouroumov_> yes
[14:26] <pi__> can i close terminal window?
[14:28] <pi__> should i do any more setting?
[14:28] <G__81> hi is it possible to change the alt + tab behavior after i change the window manager to compiz?
[14:29] <pi__> does the vino has a GUI?
[14:29] <G__81> i 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 ?
[14:30] <ouroumov_> G__81, I think yes
[14:30] <ouroumov_> You have to install ccsm
[14:30] <ouroumov_> compiz-config-settings-manager
[14:31] <G__81> yeah i have that installed. In compiz-settings-manager what do i select to get the change in behavior ?
[14:31] <ouroumov_> pi__, no gui afaik
[14:32] <ouroumov_> pi__, and you can do some more config, but is it really necessary?
[14:35] <pi__> when try to connect ubuntu mate from a Windows 7 pc via RealVNC viewer i get an error
[14:36] <pi__> it says "unable to connect to VNC server using your chosen security setting"
[14:36] <pi__> i do not know what to do
[14:36] <ouroumov_> Well, it's Windows
[14:37] <ouroumov_> You're on your own sorry, I haven't used that stuff for years
[14:37] <pi__> u mean u did not use Windows?
[14:38] <ouroumov_> yeah
[14:38] <pi__> oh then thank you for your interest
[14:39] <pi__> i'll make some more search
[16:31] <FiNPiN> Anyone here?
[16:40] <ouroumov_> Sure
[16:40] <ouroumov_> Sup FiNPiN
[16:47] <FiNPiN> Ayy, a answer!
[16:48] <sixwheeledbeast> you sound surprised!
[16:48] <FiNPiN> Just installed ubuntu mate to a old laptop of mine
[16:49] <FiNPiN> Im new to all of linux
[16:49] <FiNPiN> Its been nice so far :D
[16:50] <FiNPiN> What are you guys up to?
[17:51] <nazareno> Hi, Does anyone know how to configure a VPN?
[17:58] <ouroumov_> FiNPiN, welcome
[17:59] <ouroumov_> FiNPiN, ex-windows user?
[18:04] <FiNPiN> Yupp :)
[18:21] <atZrRar> nazareno, I've used to know a lil about how to :)
[18:24] <ouroumov_> atZrRar: he's gone already
[18:24] <ouroumov_> atZrRar, it happens a lot, come, ask a question, leave before anyone can answer
[18:31] <atZrRar> ouroumov_, 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 ;)
[18:33] <ouroumov_> atZrRar, why do you assume it's to do with his job? :)
[18:34] <ouroumov_> I'm operating a VPN myself.
[18:37] <sixwheeledbeast> configure a VPN is a vague question to answer by itself really
[18:37] <atZrRar> cool.. I just assumed straight away :)
[18:38] <atZrRar> nvm, some other day
[19:01] <vkadam> hello everyone

[19:46] <Shmigle> Hey whats going on man. Do you know if Ubuntu mate supports hidpi yet with the newest release?
[19:46] <ouroumov_> Shmigle, not yet
[19:47] <ouroumov_> Accoring to Martin Wimpress, this feature can be manually activated but is highly experimental and unstable as of now
[19:49] <Shmigle> Oh ok awesome thanks. Yeah isnt Ubuntu gnome in the process of moving over to gtk3 where scaling is more supported?
[19:49] <Shmigle> not gnome mate
[19:50] <ouroumov_> Yes
[23:06] <jhoel> how to add ATI/AMD Radeon HD 7750 driver on my ubuntu?
