| desertofunknown | hello there trying to see if anyone else is having issues with xubuntu 16.10's install | 04:50 |
|---|---|---|
| desertofunknown | The problem I am having is that starting the installer either in try without installation mode or install ubuntu mode regardless of if its booted in uefi mode results in a blank screen which I can workaround with nomodeset but my mobile phone that I tether with starts rebooting continouesly making me unable to access the net during the live install | 04:54 |
| desertofunknown | So my problem is kind of two headed here and correct me if I am wrong I believe has to do with the kernel | 04:54 |
| desertofunknown | My main point is to see if this is a known issue and if there will be an install image released to fix this problem | 04:55 |
| desertofunknown | Now for the details of my hardware I am on a Asus sabertooth gen3/rev2.0 mb amd 8370 cpu and my gpu is a msi gtx 970 | 04:56 |
| desertofunknown | As a heads up all previous versions from 12.04-16.04.1 all install fine without any issues | 04:57 |
| desertofunknown | Currently I am trying to do an upgrade from version 16.04.1 to 16.10 to see if this is a possible workaround I have also installed a manually compiled mainline kernel to test with the upgrade post install to see if I can narrow it down to being an issue with the xubuntu default provided kernel in 16.10 | 05:00 |
| desertofunknown | I will let you know the results ASAP and hopefully you can help me through this and provide a working xubuntu kernel if that is the issue | 05:01 |
| Desertofunknown | Hello, im back. So yes the issue with xubuntu 16.10s install was partially due to the kernel | 05:41 |
| Desertofunknown | But the usb issue with my tethered phone rebooting over and over is not | 05:42 |
| Desertofunknown | Sometime during the upgrade i am assuming to do with networking it cut off the net and the phome started rebooting constantly | 05:43 |
| Desertofunknown | This is very bad news for me as its my only access to the net | 05:44 |
| Desertofunknown | If a developer could help me with this i would appreciate every second of their time | 05:44 |
| Desertofunknown | I was disconnected | 06:10 |
| Desertofunknown | If there is someone who has time to help me please let me know | 06:11 |

| flocculant | http://xubuntu.org/getxubuntu/ | 09:57 |
| bomb | Oh I missed that. | 09:58 |
| bomb | Hmm, stuff got ported to GTK3. | 09:59 |
| flocculant | no | 09:59 |
| flocculant | stuff is being ported to gtk3 - in a ppa, development | 10:00 |
| bomb | Oh | 10:00 |

| xubuntu14i | Hello! I'm installing Xubuntu 17.10 now, any ideas why the developers skipped the version convention of the year and month? | 13:34 |
| xubuntu14i | I meant 17.04 Silly me! | 13:35 |
| xubuntu14i | Zesty Zaupus, what a cool name! | 13:36 |
| knome | xubuntu14i, 17.04 isn't released. nothing has been dropped. | 13:37 |
| xubuntu14i | Huh? | 13:37 |
| knome | xubuntu14i, in other words, 17.04 is released in april 2017. | 13:37 |
| xubuntu14i | That's what I'm installing now, latest AMD64 build. Is that a bug? | 13:37 |
| knome | is what a bug? | 13:38 |
| xubuntu14i | The fact that I've somehow managed to get 17.04 | 13:38 |
| knome | the *development* on 17.04 has (kind of) started, so yes, images are available... | 13:38 |
| xubuntu14i | Oh okay, is it stable enough for use? | 13:38 |
| knome | ...but they are not released, and will most likely break something in your system in a way or another | 13:38 |
| cfhowlett | but 17.04 is in no way ready for prime time | 13:38 |
| knome | no. | 13:39 |
| xubuntu14i | Ah | 13:39 |
| knome | that's why it's called "development" | 13:39 |
| xubuntu14i | Well that makes a lot of sense | 13:39 |
| xubuntu14i | I can't be bothered to download another image so I guess I'll just commit to being a bug tester | 13:40 |
| knome | well... good luck with that. | 13:40 |
| xubuntu14i | Thanks, it seems okay at the moment. GRUB didn't install properly though | 13:41 |
| knome | anyway, if you decide to do that, then consider helping the xubuntu team out by running pre-specified testcases and any other things the team might need | 13:41 |
| knome | the best way to get in loop with that is to join #xubuntu-devel and poke akxwi-dave | 13:41 |
| xubuntu14i | Okay, thank you bery much | 13:41 |
| xubuntu14i | *very | 13:42 |
| xubuntu14i | Do you know of a good Cli IRC client? I don't normally use IRC and I don't want to have a browser window open all of the time. | 13:42 |
| knome | i use irssi | 13:42 |
| xubuntu14i | Okay, thank you very much. See you later, I guess. | 13:43 |

| ngomes | hi, xubuntu 16.04 user here. how to disable the xubuntu loading screen so that it won't appear , before the login screen ? | 22:31 |
| Rarrikins | Do you want a different splash screen or to see what's happening during boot? | 22:33 |
| ngomes | i want a blackscreen | 22:34 |
| ngomes | i already configured framebuffer, it's a black screen but it appears something fast , the loading screen then login screeen | 22:34 |
| ngomes | maybe i don't want the splash screen ? ( no splash on grub options ? ) | 22:35 |
| Rarrikins | I think you can do that by editing /etc/default/grub, and changing GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT to "quiet" then running sudo update-grub2 | 22:35 |
| ngomes | ok done , rebooting to check | 22:37 |
| ngomes | Rarrikins, did that. it no longer shows image but it show some hdd output | 22:42 |
| Rarrikins | ngomes: Is it from Linux or from BIOS? | 22:44 |
