| jeroenpraat | Does anyone else have problems with Firefox (50.0.2) hiding italic text | 14:37 |
|---|---|---|
| jeroenpraat | ? | 14:37 |
| jeroenpraat | oops sorry, it's not firefox, it's the font. when I choose dejavu or sans as default font I get this | 15:33 |
| jeroenpraat | but using dejavu in e.g. libreoffice works ok | 15:33 |
| jeroenpraat | it is also only with sans-serif, not with serif | 15:35 |
| jeroenpraat | reinstalling the dejavu packages fixed the problem < for future reference | 15:41 |
| el-nino_ | hey.. i hav problem with gnome software | 22:38 |
| el-nino_ | its not popping/opening | 22:38 |
| el-nino_ | i tried few commands from ubuntu forum..but all in vain... | 22:39 |
| fuddie | el-nino_ , that's very strange. | 22:40 |
| el-nino_ | instead i succesfully installed ubuntu software center on my machine which is with gnome ubuntu | 22:40 |
| el-nino_ | i tried to get help from gnome users.. but it didn't help very well. | 22:41 |
| fuddie | have you tried uninstalling gnome software and then reinstalling it? | 22:41 |
| el-nino_ | haa.. i did even that...uninstalling & reinstalling through terminal | 22:42 |
| el-nino_ | but it didn't seem to work | 22:43 |
| fuddie | well shoot that is really strange | 22:43 |
| el-nino_ | i even checked few times of apt-get update | 22:44 |
| el-nino_ | apt-get upgrade..all of that stuff | 22:44 |
| fuddie | you might have some luck asking on #ubuntu since it has 20 times the users. | 22:44 |
| el-nino_ | let me confess... i am very new to linux.. | 22:44 |
| el-nino_ | i hav tried all the possibilities i knew | 22:45 |
| fuddie | try running it from the terminal. type ' gnome-software ' without quotes | 22:46 |
| fuddie | does it give you any sort of error? | 22:47 |
| el-nino | ha did that even.. it showed no reponse.. then i ran.. killall..too | 22:47 |
| el-nino_ | ok.. let me start fresh | 22:48 |
| el-nino_ | haa,.... here it is.... it shows no response again | 22:49 |
| fuddie | type ' apt policy gnome-software ' | 22:50 |
| el-nino_ | el-nino@elnino-HP-Pavilion-15-Notebook-PC:~$ apt policy gnome software | 22:51 |
| el-nino_ | gnome: | 22:51 |

| el-nino_ | sry | 22:51 |
| el-nino_ | https://paste.gnome.org/paybkfkhi | 22:52 |
| fuddie | it's "gnome-software" not "gnome software" The dash needs to be there. | 22:53 |
| fuddie | otherwise it just checks the entire gnome desktop :) | 22:53 |
| el-nino_ | https://paste.gnome.org/pih7ngrvx | 22:54 |
| fuddie | plz type in terminal and show the result: ls ~/.local/share/gnome-software/ | 22:55 |
| el-nino | https://paste.gnome.org/ptfnvjjh0 | 22:57 |
| fuddie | ok, you just need to rename the 'install-queue' folder to something else (maybe install-queue-backup) and it should work | 22:59 |
| el-nino_ | so.. command please | 23:00 |
| fuddie | mv ~/.local/share/gnome-software/ ~/.local/share/gnome-software-backup/ | 23:01 |
| el-nino_ | ha..done.... whats the checkpoint nw | 23:02 |
| fuddie | what do you mean by 'what's the checkpoint nw'? | 23:02 |
| el-nino_ | sry.... hw to knw the command went well.... and what would be the subsequent steps | 23:03 |
| fuddie | it should be fixed now, try opening gnome software | 23:03 |
| fuddie | does it work? | 23:03 |
| el-nino_ | haa...here its done... it opened succesfully.. thank you alot buddy.... | 23:04 |
| fuddie | no problem, it is a bug that has not been fixed yet | 23:04 |
| el-nino_ | but nw i do have ubuntu software center too on my machine.. how to get rid of it | 23:04 |
| fuddie | you may have it happen again. just save the command in a text file so you can remember it for later | 23:05 |
| fuddie | to remove ubuntu software center just type ' sudo apt-get remove ubuntu-software-center ' | 23:05 |
| el-nino_ | u mean like the command to move the file location should be saved or anyother stuff | 23:06 |
| fuddie | Just the command, you may need to remove the file again if you encounter the bug again later. | 23:06 |
| el-nino_ | kk.. | 23:07 |
| el-nino_ | hey.. jst encountered another error while uninstalling the ubuntu-software-center | 23:08 |
| fuddie | oh, what kind of error? did it uninstall correctly? | 23:09 |
| el-nino_ | https://paste.gnome.org/pyga1u5h2 | 23:09 |
| fuddie | Oh, my bad, The package is actually just called "ubuntu-software". sudo apt-get remove ubuntu-software | 23:10 |
| el-nino_ | now the command say that ubuntu center is not installed and not removed | 23:12 |
| fuddie | ubuntu-software? | 23:12 |
| el-nino | https://paste.gnome.org/pia8jg8xf | 23:13 |
| el-nino | but the GUI shows ubuntu software | 23:14 |
| fuddie | ok, maybe I have the wrong package name. sudo apt-get remove software-center | 23:16 |
| fuddie | Also, you could uninstall it from gnome software, just by finding it in the 'installed' tab at the top | 23:17 |
| fuddie | whichever you prefer | 23:17 |
| el-nino_ | ha,,,,am done with it | 23:20 |
| el-nino_ | can i ask for another favour | 23:20 |
| fuddie | sure | 23:20 |
| el-nino_ | how to get Indic languages on IBUS r what ever may be the GUI character map | 23:21 |
| fuddie | el-nino_: I have no idea. sorry. Try asking on the #ubuntu channel, since it has 20 times as many users. | 23:22 |
| el-nino_ | thank you | 23:22 |
| fuddie | no problem! i'm sorry you encountered such an odd bug. | 23:23 |

| el-nino_ | each time i got fed up and shift to other OS | 23:25 |
| fuddie | haha, i would too | 23:25 |
| el-nino_ | i also need to make a query.. why does bluetooth doesnt work no my machine with linux | 23:26 |
| fuddie | I don't know, i dont have bluetooth on my computer. It's probably a missing hardware driver. | 23:27 |
| el-nino_ | the drivers, importantly graphical drivers | 23:27 |
| el-nino_ | i work on HP-pavilion 15 laptop | 23:28 |
| fuddie | Try asking on the #ubuntu IRC channel, it has a lot more active users who can help | 23:29 |
