| mate|25883 | What's going on. I just upgraded my main machine to 16.10 and my dvd drives are useless! | 15:27 |
| ouroumov | flexiondotorg, hello | 15:32 |
| korpa | I can not install java in ubuntu mate | 15:35 |
| flexiondotorg | ouroumov, Yo | 15:39 |
| ouroumov | flexiondotorg, that bounty thing seems to work | 15:41 |
| flexiondotorg | Really? | 15:41 |
| flexiondotorg | I've not heard back from Bounty Source that they've set up what we need? | 15:42 |
| ouroumov | And well it appears I was wrong. Turns out bug was not in mate-panel | 15:42 |
| ouroumov | flexiondotorg, what did you ask from them? :o | 15:43 |
| G__81 | Hi i am using Ubuntu mate 16.04 and i am using the Marco Compton GPU compositor. I would like to know if i can change the alt+tab settings to something similar to what i see in the software compositor | 15:46 |
| ouroumov | G__81, not that I know of | 15:48 |
| ouroumov | G__81, compton is very limited by design | 15:49 |
| G__81 | ouroumov, oh the default option is better then ? | 15:50 |
| G__81 | ouroumov, is there a way to at least increase the icon size when i do alt + tab ? | 15:51 |
| ouroumov | G__81, again, not that I know of | 15:53 |
| ouroumov | G__81, the default option is not always better, it depends what you do with the machine | 15:53 |
| ouroumov | G__81, for instance, compton is the way to go if you want tear-free video playback | 15:53 |
| G__81 | compiz is too complicated for me. I use my machine for development purposes and yes listening to music and watching movies as well | 15:54 |
| Akuli | what exactly do you want alt+tab to do? | 15:55 |
| Akuli | to me it switches windows in marco just fine | 15:55 |
| G__81 | Akuli, i just want to increase the size of the icons which gets displayed when i do alt+tab or if possible i want the windows preview like what i get in marco | 15:56 |
| G__81 | i am currently using Compton Compositor. Want to know if i can get the same view in compton as how i get when i use Marco Alt + tab | 15:56 |
| Akuli | as a developer you'll probably find yourself spending most of the time on the same terminal anyway | 15:57 |
| Akuli | which is the terminal that your editor runs on | 15:57 |
| ouroumov | Maybe he's using a graphical editor :x | 15:59 |
| ouroumov | Or and IDE :x | 15:59 |
| ouroumov | -d | 15:59 |
| Akuli | about the same thing, still staying in the same window most of the time | 15:59 |
| G__81 | Akuli, no the icons in alt+tab is quite small just want to know if i can increase the size, something like what we get in xfce | 16:00 |
| Akuli | maybe you could run xfce's window manager with mate? | 16:00 |
| G__81 | Akuli, i have not tried. If mate does not have a default option, its fine i can just revert back to default Marco Software compositor and its just fine | 16:01 |
| Akuli | i don't think it has | 16:01 |
| guest-2eqmae | helplp | 16:01 |
| guest-2eqmae | hfgcgg | 16:01 |
| Akuli | whats the problem? | 16:01 |
| G__81 | just wanted to know if i am missing something or some hidden option in dconf | 16:01 |
| G__81 | Thanks Akuli | 16:01 |
| guest-2eqmae | jhggg | 16:01 |
| Akuli | dconf dump /org/mate/marco/ doesn't show anything interesting | 16:02 |
| G__81 | oh ok thanks | 16:02 |
| Akuli | so i guess you'd need to edit the source and compile marco | 16:02 |
| G__81 | oh ok No problem. I will stay with Marco Software compositor. It works fine | 16:03 |

| pall51 | guys, i'm having a little problem. i installed ubuntu mate but didn't get any kind of bootloader after a boot and it booted straight to windows, any hints what should i do? | 20:58 |
| Mayday010 | do you have to install grub on the boot partition? | 21:01 |
| pall51 | well yea, i have grub inside boot folder | 21:03 |
| pall51 | but boot partition? | 21:03 |
| Mayday010 | I'm not an expert at this, but from the little experience I got making a live usb, you need to install grub on the boot partition. Which ever partition your pc is reading to boot | 21:04 |
| simon_ | Hi there, yes GRUB needs to be installed to whichever disk (not partition) your PC is booting from | 21:05 |
| Mayday010 | If its booting into windows I would think you might have to install it to the windows partition, unless you have a partition specifically labeled as boot | 21:05 |
| simon_ | So if your root is installed on sdb and your boot device is sda. GRUB needs to be installed to sda. | 21:05 |
| pall51 | i just checked my bios and it only shows that it's either primarily booting from internal or external drive, not asking about any partition | 21:05 |
| Mayday010 | you'd have to check the disk its self | 21:06 |
| simon_ | Have a look here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GRUB | 21:07 |
| simon_ | When installing GRUB it is installed to sda not to sda1 etc | 21:07 |
| Mayday010 | I'm not sure how windows partitions their install, but if you have a partition that is labeled / marked as boot you would install it there, then make grub link back to your linux install | 21:08 |
| simon_ | Pass on the windows. Not installed a Microsoft system for a decade! From memory however there is a package called os-probe (or someting like that) that will find the Windows install if is already in place. Think the windows "boot disk" is untouch and GRUB chain loads into it. | 21:10 |
| Mayday010 | if its easier you could use a live usb to look at your partitions too, instead of getting special software for that. | 21:11 |
| pall512 | yeah, i'm actually using a live usb right now and trying to find out what to do | 21:12 |
| simon_ | True. A live usb will let you look. | 21:13 |
| Mayday010 | go to your terminal | 21:13 |
| Mayday010 | type in sudo fdisk -l | 21:13 |
| pall512 | i have windows' 200gb volume partition and linux's 50gb one, both on same ssd and i don't have any other hard drives. can't look at windows' partition tho, calling that it's unable to mount 200gb volume | 21:13 |
| Mayday010 | one of the partitions on the windows disk will have an asterisk on that line marking boot partition | 21:14 |
| pall512 | one kind of pain in the ass because i have finnish keyboard and live usb only has us keyboard layout | 21:15 |
| pall512 | fdisk -l says "permission denied" to all | 21:16 |
| pall512 | oh, sudo.. of course | 21:16 |
| Mayday010 | Its been a while since I've mounted a windows partition. You may need to experiment with some options, but your general command shoudl be "mount -t ntfs /windows/disk /mount/partition" | 21:17 |
| Mayday010 | oh, with sudo also | 21:17 |
| pall51 | ummh.. | 21:19 |
| pall51 | can't see no asterisk anywhere | 21:21 |
| Mayday010 | did it show all the partitions for all your disks? | 21:22 |
| pall51 | or i do have my known partitions listed from sda1 to sda8 but then there's some isolated rams, loops etc | 21:22 |
| pall51 | there's also one isolated boot device but it's my usb stick | 21:23 |
| Mayday010 | wouldn't be in ram. It should be one of your sd devices, most likely sda | 21:23 |
| pall51 | it can affect that i do have external drive as primary boot option because otherwise my laptop wont boot from usb.. | 21:24 |
| Mayday010 | I don't think so. it should show all connected devices regardless of where it actually booted from | 21:25 |
| pall51 | is there any way i can screenshot this and send it? it'd be way too much spam to just copy and paste | 21:26 |
| Mayday010 | try this. sudo fdisk -l | grep '\*' | grep /dev | 21:27 |
| Mayday010 | that should pull up just a list of boot partitions | 21:27 |
| jticket | Is ntfs-3g installed by default? | 21:27 |
| pall51 | ./dev/sdb1 * 2048 7823359 7821312 3.7G c W95 FAT32 (LBA) | 21:29 |
| pall51 | but that's my usb :/ | 21:30 |
| Mayday010 | check what jticket said. is ntfs-3g installed. sudo dpkg -l | grep ntfs | 21:31 |
| pall51 | ii ntfs-3g 1:2015.3.14AR.1-1build1 amd64 read/write NTFS driver for FUSE | 21:32 |
| pall51 | thanks guys for your help, i appreciate it very much since i don't have much experience on linux | 21:33 |
| Mayday010 | np, I finally get to test out what I've been learning. since I'm relatively new too | 21:34 |
| Mayday010 | is that the only line? on my system I also have a ii libntfs-3g871 1:2016.2.22AR.1-3 amd64 read/write NTFS driver for FUSE (runtime library) | 21:34 |
| pall51 | hah | 21:34 |
| pall51 | yeah, those are the only lanes | 21:35 |
| Mayday010 | how big is the windows drive? | 21:35 |
| pall51 | it's approx. 200gbs, the linux is 50 | 21:36 |
| pall51 | and i cant access it from linux | 21:37 |
| Mayday010 | I'm not sure why your other disks aren't showing up | 21:38 |
| pall51 | on ubuntus file explorer it's showing also sonysys, inside it is a folder named efi and inside it is folder named boot.. | 21:39 |
| Mayday010 | what if you do ls /dev | grep sd | 21:39 |
| pall51 | sda | 21:40 |
| pall51 | sda1 | 21:40 |
| pall51 | sda2 | 21:40 |
| pall51 | sda3 | 21:40 |
| pall51 | sda4 | 21:40 |
| pall51 | sda5 | 21:40 |
| pall51 | sda6 | 21:40 |
| chelios | is anyone able to tell me how I can disable focus follows mouse? | 21:40 |
| pall51 | sda7 | 21:40 |
| pall51 | sda8 | 21:40 |
| pall51 | sdb | 21:40 |
| pall51 | sdb1 | 21:40 |
| pall51 | ohgod sorry | 21:40 |
| Mayday010 | I'm assuming sda is the disk you installed linux on? | 21:42 |
| pall51 | that's the only disk i got | 21:42 |
| Mayday010 | I'm sorry chelios I don't know | 21:43 |
| chelios | Mayday010: no problem | 21:43 |
| chelios | I'll keep asking and eventually I'll find the right person :-) | 21:43 |
| Mayday010 | pall51: did you install linux on the same disk and windows, just different partition? | 21:45 |
| pall51 | yeah | 21:46 |
| pall51 | that sda is my only disk and i made 50gb partition out of it for linux, and installed it on it | 21:46 |
| Mayday010 | ok , I think that makes more sense now | 21:47 |
| Mayday010 | I'm still not sure why there is not listing for a boot partition though | 21:47 |
| Mayday010 | so I have 2 thoughts | 21:47 |
| Mayday010 | 1. check your bios and make sure secure boot is turned off. I hear that will prevent you from booting into linux | 21:48 |
| pall51 | secure boot is turned off since it didnt let me boot of usb stick without it being off | 21:48 |
| Mayday010 | and 2. if that looks good you'd have to install grub to /sda | 21:48 |
| pall51 | okaayyy... | 21:50 |
| Mayday010 | which partition is your ok installed on? | 21:50 |
| pall51 | ok? | 21:50 |
| Mayday010 | oh, I guess you could try one other thing | 21:51 |
| Mayday010 | flag that linux partition as boot | 21:51 |
| Mayday010 | sudo fdisk -l | grep -i linux | 21:52 |
| pall51 | and to make sure i dont know did i already say this but there's also that sonysys sony boot partition, i couldnt delete it because its my only way to get into bios | 21:52 |
| pall51 | it gave me this :/dev/sda7 395259904 483530751 88270848 42.1G Linux filesystem | 21:53 |
| Mayday010 | I'm thinking of just flagging the linux partition, not doing anything with the others | 21:53 |
| pall51 | and this: /dev/sda8 483530752 500117503 16586752 7.9G Linux swap | 21:54 |
| Mayday010 | ok I'm gussing that's where linux is installed /dev/sda7 | 21:54 |
| Mayday010 | so you can do sudo fdisk /dev/sda | 21:54 |
| Mayday010 | you can hit 'm' anytime you need instructions | 21:55 |
| Mayday010 | but hit p to list your partitions | 21:55 |
| pall51 | aaightt | 21:55 |
| Mayday010 | hit 'a' to toggle boot | 21:56 |
| pall51 | a: unknown command | 21:56 |
| pall51 | umm | 21:56 |
| Mayday010 | are you still in the fdisk program, or back at the command line | 21:56 |
| pall51 | still in the fdisk | 21:57 |
| Mayday010 | a | 21:57 |
| Mayday010 | without quotes, or colon | 21:57 |
| pall51 | well, thats exactly what i did | 21:57 |
| pall51 | Command (m for help): a a: unknown command | 21:58 |
| pall51 | weird | 21:58 |
| Mayday010 | ok, shoudl show a list of elligable boot partitions. hopefully 7 is there | 21:58 |
| Mayday010 | enter 7 | 21:58 |
| pall51 | unknown command | 21:58 |
| Mayday010 | 7 | 21:59 |
| pall51 | Command (m for help): 7 7: unknown command | 21:59 |
| pall51 | on help it doesn't show 'a' command | 22:00 |
| Mayday010 | ok where did you get the first unknown command? | 22:00 |
| pall51 | on a | 22:00 |
| pall51 | m and p went like a charm | 22:00 |
| pall51 | but a is unknown | 22:00 |
| pall51 | can this be because im running on live usb? | 22:02 |
| Mayday010 | that's wierd | 22:02 |
| Mayday010 | not sure. I wouldn't think so | 22:02 |
| Mayday010 | so if you hit m that list of options doesn't have a listed | 22:03 |
| pall51 | yeah, theres no command a | 22:03 |
| pall51 | only dFlnptvi mx IO wq gGos | 22:03 |
| pall51 | and there's nothing called toggle boot | 22:04 |
| Mayday010 | I'm not sure now. I'm pretty much out of ideas | 22:07 |
| pall51 | :/ | 22:08 |
| pall51 | tried some googleing and found about some boot-repair, maybe i should try that, idk | 22:09 |
| Mayday010 | possibly | 22:10 |

| Mayday010 | I could be wrong, but maybe if windows was installed first, that could be the default loader | 22:10 |
| pall512 | i'm already in trouble with linux although i haven't even got into it yet | 22:10 |
| Mayday010 | maybe its a windows issue, in that you'd have to alter that boot loader to give a linux option | 22:11 |
| pall512 | i'll log out of the other account so i can try to check if there's something wrong in bios, but stay here with this nick | 22:12 |
| Mayday010 | either that, or you could try to install grub, but that would stop you from being able to boot into linux, if its not done right | 22:12 |

| pall512 | although i just reinstalled windows and linux so i got nothing to lose to be honest | 22:13 |

| Mayday010 | according to Ubuntu's site https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot all you have to do is change the grub to point to the windows partition. | 22:28 |
| jticket | And use 64 bit ubuntu as well. | 22:28 |
| pall51 | well, that was embarrassing spam | 22:28 |
| Mayday010 | no instructions on how to do that though | 22:28 |
| jticket | install boot-repair and os-prober and then run boot-repair in the live environment. | 22:29 |
| pall512 | ummh.. okay, let's see if i can do this | 22:29 |
| pall512 | no instructions might be little problem :D | 22:30 |
| jticket | boot from the usb or cd and go to terminal and sudo apt-get install boot-repair os-prober | 22:31 |
| pall512 | is it just that | 22:31 |
| pall512 | sudo add-apt-repository ppa:yannubuntu/boot-repair sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install -y boot-repair && boot-repair or these | 22:32 |
| jticket | Yes, but after install also add os-prober | 22:32 |

| Mayday010 | since he's on a live usb I don't think adding the ppa is really benefiting anything | 22:34 |
| jticket | It might if it's not there by default and boot-repair isn't in the ubunto repos. | 22:34 |
| pall512 | boot repair opened | 22:35 |
| pall512 | but how about that os-prober? | 22:35 |
| jticket | That runs with grub, so you don't have to worry about it. | 22:35 |
| pall512 | but i didnt install it yet | 22:35 |

| pall512 | umm | 22:38 |
| pall512 | separate /boot/efi partition is already checked, and it's on sda5 | 22:38 |
| jticket | you can go ahead and boot repair. | 22:38 |
| pall512 | on drop menu the other choice is to choose sda1 | 22:38 |
| jticket | Leave the efi partition checked as is. | 22:39 |
| pall512 | and after it install os-probe? | 22:40 |
| pall512 | prober* | 22:40 |
| jticket | Install os-prober before running boot-repair. Come to think of it, it should be there by default. | 22:41 |
| pall512 | before..? | 22:41 |
| pall512 | well, i did run boot-repair already :| | 22:41 |
| pall512 | do i have to install it now and do the boot-repair again? | 22:43 |
| pall512 | did it but still no success, still booted straight to windows. secure boot is disabled, boot mode uefi | 22:48 |

| jticket | Look at your bios boot options and see if you have linux boot manager | 22:57 |
| jticket | maybe f12 or whatever your boot menu key is pall512 | 22:57 |
| pall512 | i dont have any options on that in my bios :/ | 22:57 |
| jticket | It's not in the boot menu/boot sequence? | 22:58 |
| jticket | You'll have to see if your bios supports adding a boot entry manually then. | 22:59 |
| jticket | It looks fine, your bios is probably hard coded. | 22:59 |

| tester1 | \w | 23:01 |
| jticket | pall512 Is your laptop an hp? | 23:02 |
| pall512 | no, sony vaio | 23:03 |
| pall512 | and no, there's actually not much of boot options. only external/internal choice | 23:03 |
| jticket | Look in your bios then and see if you can manually add a boot entry. | 23:04 |
| pall512 | i cant add :/ | 23:05 |
| jticket | Then it's probably hard coded to EFI/Microsoft/bootx74.efi or something like that. | 23:05 |
| jticket | bootx64.efi | 23:05 |
