=== mrkramps_ is now known as mrkramps [04:50] hello there trying to see if anyone else is having issues with xubuntu 16.10's install [04:54] 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] So my problem is kind of two headed here and correct me if I am wrong I believe has to do with the kernel [04:55] 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 [04:56] 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 [04:57] As a heads up all previous versions from 12.04-16.04.1 all install fine without any issues [05:00] 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 [05:01] 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 [05:41] Hello, im back. So yes the issue with xubuntu 16.10s install was partially due to the kernel [05:42] But the usb issue with my tethered phone rebooting over and over is not [05:43] Sometime during the upgrade i am assuming to do with networking it cut off the net and the phome started rebooting constantly [05:44] This is very bad news for me as its my only access to the net [05:44] If a developer could help me with this i would appreciate every second of their time [06:10] I was disconnected [06:11] If there is someone who has time to help me please let me know === azeam_afk is now known as azeam [09:55] Hey, will there be Xubuntu 16.10? [09:56] there is a Xubuntu 16.10 [09:57] http://xubuntu.org/getxubuntu/ [09:58] Oh I missed that. [09:59] Hmm, stuff got ported to GTK3. [09:59] no [10:00] stuff is being ported to gtk3 - in a ppa, development [10:00] Oh [10:01] What's new in 16.10 then? [10:02] I'm trying to decide whether I should upgrade or not. [10:07] not much change between 16.04 and 16.10 === bomb__ is now known as bomb [13:34] Hello! I'm installing Xubuntu 17.10 now, any ideas why the developers skipped the version convention of the year and month? [13:35] I meant 17.04 Silly me! [13:36] Zesty Zaupus, what a cool name! [13:37] xubuntu14i, 17.04 isn't released. nothing has been dropped. [13:37] Huh? [13:37] xubuntu14i, in other words, 17.04 is released in april 2017. [13:37] That's what I'm installing now, latest AMD64 build. Is that a bug? [13:38] is what a bug? [13:38] The fact that I've somehow managed to get 17.04 [13:38] the *development* on 17.04 has (kind of) started, so yes, images are available... [13:38] Oh okay, is it stable enough for use? [13:38] ...but they are not released, and will most likely break something in your system in a way or another [13:38] but 17.04 is in no way ready for prime time [13:39] no. [13:39] Ah [13:39] that's why it's called "development" [13:39] Well that makes a lot of sense [13:40] I can't be bothered to download another image so I guess I'll just commit to being a bug tester [13:40] well... good luck with that. [13:41] Thanks, it seems okay at the moment. GRUB didn't install properly though [13:41] 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] the best way to get in loop with that is to join #xubuntu-devel and poke akxwi-dave [13:41] Okay, thank you bery much [13:42] *very [13:42] 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] i use irssi [13:43] Okay, thank you very much. See you later, I guess. === dreamon__ is now known as dreamon === pavlushka is now known as skywriter === skywriter is now known as pavlushka === azeam_afk is now known as azeam === azeam_afk is now known as azeam [20:16] Hey [20:17] DylanHamer, hey [22:20] How do I make the whisker menu bigger? [22:21] Found it (upper right corner). [22:31] hi, xubuntu 16.04 user here. how to disable the xubuntu loading screen so that it won't appear , before the login screen ? [22:33] Do you want a different splash screen or to see what's happening during boot? [22:34] i want a blackscreen [22:34] i already configured framebuffer, it's a black screen but it appears something fast , the loading screen then login screeen [22:35] maybe i don't want the splash screen ? ( no splash on grub options ? ) [22:35] I think you can do that by editing /etc/default/grub, and changing GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT to "quiet" then running sudo update-grub2 [22:37] ok done , rebooting to check [22:42] Rarrikins, did that. it no longer shows image but it show some hdd output [22:44] ngomes: Is it from Linux or from BIOS? === ObrienDave is now known as ObrienDaveula [22:46] Rarrikins, from linux [22:46] fsck i believe === ObrienDaveula is now known as ObrienDavenstein [22:47] Are any partitions marked dirty?
