| White_Light | why was 4.8.9 released before upstream released 4.8.9 | 03:59 |
|---|---|---|
| White_Light | that doesn't appear to make any sense, am I missing something? | 04:00 |

| r4y | I am running an older tower that I can get Ubuntu 10.04 on a different hard drive to work with where the graphics card can do 3D graphics and tv-out with s-video through nvidia settings. I am running Ubuntu Mate on that same tower right now and I want to get tv out, but I don't care to get 3D graphics to work. How do I do that? | 05:31 |
| r4y | I found this, but I wasn't sure about how things would work differently than before, but I have never messed with these before from this link: | 05:33 |
| r4y | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution | 05:33 |
| r4y | I am going to leave this window open and go visit with other people for now, so I will likely not respond, but any input as to what tutorials online for setting up Ubuntu Mate for this would be a step in the right direction versus wondering which method might work and not being sure, because I feel stuck. | 05:35 |
| r4y | I meant different ways would be great, as there are likely to be many ways perhaps. | 05:36 |
| eightfold | hi | 07:59 |
| eightfold | i wonder how i can change the window title color | 08:05 |
| eightfold | i KNOW i've done this before, because i have a screenshot of it | 08:05 |
| eightfold | https://i.imgur.com/DUOHIba.png | 08:05 |
| eightfold | that shows how i changed the default baby blue to something darker | 08:05 |
| eightfold | i can't, for my life, find how out how to do that again! | 08:06 |
| eightfold | i think there might have been a "color" tab in customize | 08:07 |
| eightfold | but no longer... | 08:07 |
| eightfold | like so: https://i.stack.imgur.com/VYl3N.png | 08:07 |
| eightfold | has this wonderful feature been removed? | 08:07 |
| ouroumov_ | eightfold, in 16.10 yes it's removed | 08:11 |
| ouroumov_ | Actually it can't be implemented in GTK3+ apparently | 08:11 |
| eightfold | ouroumov_: ouch, ok | 08:12 |
| eightfold | so, editing the themes? | 08:12 |
| ouroumov_ | Yeah I think | 08:12 |
| ouroumov_ | I'd like to know the recommended way to go about this too | 08:12 |
| eightfold | http://askubuntu.com/a/760249 | 08:14 |
| eightfold | perhaps | 08:14 |
| eightfold | "But it still wasn't enough for me, because progressbars and checkboxes remained green. Then I found the gtk-3.0/assets folder. There, I had to manually change the color of every single greenish asset with Gimp. I used the Hue-Saturation tool with the following parameters:" | 08:17 |
| eightfold | argh... | 08:17 |
| eightfold | ok, i'm messing about with the themes... | 08:47 |
| eightfold | copied a theme to ~/.themes | 08:47 |
| eightfold | there's a Radiant-MATE file in the root of the themes dir of this theme | 08:48 |
| eightfold | BUT (strangeness) | 08:48 |
| eightfold | when i look at the dir from the terminal it's called index.theme | 08:48 |
| eightfold | wtf | 08:48 |
| eightfold | how does this strangeness happen | 08:48 |
| eightfold | when i try to rename it to Radiant-MATE-mine.theme it's not loadable | 08:52 |
| eightfold | how do i change the name of the theme in the appearance > theme picker | 08:52 |
| eightfold | ? | 08:52 |
| eightfold | i don't want duplicate names | 08:53 |
| eightfold | that's why i'm messing around | 08:53 |

| mate|17036 | hi i have Ubuntu 16.04 and the mate software wants me to update the OS. It seems stuck, and keeps asking me for authentication for some packages. should I just download the latest Ubuntu over the old ones if the update fails? | 22:58 |
| mate|17036 | wonders if this is the best option for me? | 23:03 |
| nomic | maybe .. | 23:07 |
| nomic | you should try to do a complete installation, to get 16.10 | 23:07 |
| nomic | its because you have existing configuration | 23:07 |
| mate|17036 | if its dual boot, just install over it? | 23:08 |
| nomic | you should m aybe ask on the forum (ubuntu, mate foru ms) isn't always busy here | 23:08 |
| nomic | it gives you an option of installing to a partition | 23:08 |
| nomic | it offers upgrade - its not compulsory | 23:08 |
| nomic | 16.04 is still in support | 23:08 |
| nomic | 16.10 is not a long term support release | 23:08 |
| nomic | stick with 16.04 | 23:09 |
| nomic | April 2019 | 23:09 |
| nomic | end of support for 16.04 | 23:09 |
| mate|17036 | oh the problem i am having is it downloaded 185 mb, but keeps asking to authenticate when it gets to 135 mb and it wont go further | 23:09 |
| nomic | its the most stable lts | 23:09 |
| nomic | apt-get upgrade upgrades packages, not the OS | 23:10 |
| mate|17036 | well it runs ok without the updates, just saying it seems stuck | 23:10 |
| nomic | when you type sudo apt-get upgrade? | 23:10 |
| mate|17036 | no the mate software is doing this, says one update and tells me its size | 23:11 |
| nomic | i dunno - ask on the forum | 23:11 |
| nomic | screenshot | 23:11 |
| nomic | show them | 23:11 |
| nomic | where it stops | 23:11 |
| mate|17036 | so sudo apt-get upgrade is the command I should try in terminal? | 23:16 |
| mate|17036 | so I am not dependant on the ubuntu-mate software? | 23:16 |
| mate|17036 | I will try that instead, thank you | 23:18 |
| mate|17036 | its asking for a reboot now. hmmmm | 23:18 |
