[03:51] <entropico> Hi I am not the smartest guy in the world using linux and I am currently in China, so far, and with a different time zone, from friends that can support. I have a NAS (HP-NL54) that run on Xubuntu. Upgrading from 14 to 16.04 release there was a problem on the boot. I tried to use Repair Boot Disk  and this was the result: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23560391/ . Now the system does not boot and Repair Boot Disk cannot repair any furthe
[06:05] <AaronRaimist[m]> entropico: I don't think I can help you but you should create forum post on the Ubuntu Forums as described here: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=10871917#post10871917 More people will be able to assist you there.
[13:52] <cmb_> Has the behaviour of the middle mouse button changed recently? Up till yesterday I could double click with left mouse button to select some text, and paste it into another window by clicking once on the middle mouse button/wheel. Turned on the machine today and even 'xev' is not showing anything X events when I click the wheel. Driver change? Window manager change? Annoying!
[13:53] <cmb_> Mouse is a Microsoft Wireless Mouse 2000.
[13:53] <cmb_> I did install some updates, including latest kernel, late yesterday... connected?
[13:55] <cmb_> (Kernel is Linux 4.4.0-51-generic #72-Ubuntu SMP, on 16.04.1 LTS)
[14:44] <flocculant> cmb_: not seeing the same issue in updated 16.04 - maybe try another mouse?
[17:27] <cmb_> flocculant, thanks, will dig one out and have a compare.
[17:38] <LambdaComplex> Where can I find a list of what's installed on the images at https://xubuntu.org/getxubuntu/ ?
[17:39] <flocculant> LambdaComplex: go to one of the mirrors - find the release you're looking at - then check the manifest
[17:41] <flocculant> cmb_: though I don't have a wireless mouse here, so maybe something changed, if it did then it would have been a change in something *not* xubuntu - and you might be better asking in #ubuntu
[17:43] <xangua> Well now LibreOffice is included in xubuntu for example
[18:35] <GridCube> LambdaComplex: http://packages.ubuntu.com/yakkety/xubuntu-desktop
[18:53] <LambdaComplex> thanks, flocculant and GridCube
[19:52] <glitchd> how can i log into a machine and pass the login screen (lightdm) on a machine the has no physical keyboard, but i have ssh access to?
[19:59] <ikonia> glitchd: please stop cross-pasting
[19:59] <ikonia> you've used these channels enough to know that is not acceptable
[20:03] <cmb_> flocculant, I was asking here first because I wanted to rule out it being a UI/xfce issue rather than a Unity issue, which will be the first question asked over on #ubuntu...
[20:06] <flocculant> cmb_: yea understood
[20:06] <cmb_> flocculant, thanks for try a different mouse suggestion - another Microsoft Wireless mouse I have lying around works just fine... so may be the specific device/hardware. Looks like the software side hasn't changed.
[20:07] <flocculant> cool - if in doubt dig the old hardware out and check that :)
[20:13] <glitchd> ikonia, there is no rule about asking questions in different channels, even if it is the same question.
[20:13] <ikonia> glitchd: there is
[20:14] <ikonia> glitchd: it's called cross-posting, please don't do it
[20:16] <gr1dl0ck> glitchd: why not just ssh? What are you trying to do?
[20:17] <ikonia> it's a nonsense requirement list
[20:17] <gr1dl0ck> oh ok
[20:27] <glitchd> ikonia, its not nonsense. you just dont want to help me find an answer.
[20:30] <glitchd> maybe its above your pay grade, maybe not. nonetheless dont try to hamper my attempts at finding an answer just because you cant help.
[20:30] <glitchd> gr1dl0ck, still care to hear what im trying to achieve?
[20:33] <ikonia> glitchd: I've just put a lot of options for you
[20:33] <ikonia> glitchd: so it's a bit of a stupid thing to say I don't want to help you find an answer
[20:33] <ikonia> but your use case is nonsense, hence why I said, it's nonsense requirements
[20:33] <ikonia> but I've offered you 7 - 8 options to give you a solution, so please, don't make it sound like I'm not interested
[20:34] <ikonia> and don't try to be smart with me "above my pay grade"
[20:34] <glitchd> ikonia, yes, you did put out alot of options, however none of them were acceptable to my situation.
[20:34] <ikonia> you're the one asking for help - so have a bit of appreciation for those trying to guide you and help you
[20:34] <ikonia> none of them are acceptable because your requirements is a nonsense usecase
[20:34] <ikonia> with minor tweaks you'd be fine
[20:35] <glitchd> ikonia, i have show appreciation for the effort just to be told not to ask in differnt forums
[20:35] <ikonia> so again, you've just said I offered you a lot of options, yet a few lines up you said I didn't want to help you
[20:35] <ikonia> glitchd: yes, you where told not to cross-post, thats not showing appreciation
[20:35] <ikonia> thats just asking in multiple channels
[20:35] <ikonia> showing appreciation is not calling someone for trying to help and guide you and coming out with stupid sentences like "it's above your paygrade"
[20:36] <ikonia> more so when you say a few lines later "you offered lots of suggestions" and contridict yourselfd
[20:36] <ikonia> again, a few minor tweaks to your usecase and you'll be setup and running in minutes
[20:36] <glitchd> pretty sure i havent contradicted myself, but im not gonna sit here and split hairs with you.
[20:37] <ikonia> you said I didn't want to help you
[20:37] <ikonia> then you said I offered you lots of suggestions
[20:37] <ikonia> that seems pretty contradicatry
[20:40] <glitchd> yes i did say you didnt want to help, i guess that was a mistake on my part, my apologies for that.
