DarkAceZwhat's the proper way to do it?00:00
DarkAceZdist-upgrade, to be specific00:00
bazhangdist-upgrade is something else entirely00:13
bazhangthat does not change versions, but simple brings in all held back packages of whatever version you are currently on00:13
bazhangyou want something along the lines of 'do-release-upgrade'00:14

Gamoder_Hi everyone, is it normal that every uninstall in "Software" fails?11:47
flocculantGamoder_: you sure it's failing - or just looks like it's failed in thaat software app?11:56
Gamoder_don't know actually11:56
Gamoder_but I think it doesn't do anything because I can "Remove" it again11:57
flocculantGamoder_: well in a terminall sudo apt remove it - see if it says it's not installed11:57
Gamoder_apt-get remove also works strange, that's why I opened "Software" in the first place. Even though libreoffice clearly is installed, it claims it isn't11:58
flocculantnot sure without seeing the actual output from terminal12:01
Gamoder_whatever, have found out the reason. seams you have to uninstall libreoffice-base-core12:01
xubuntu52ihi12:02
flocculantGamoder_: aah right - yea, unless the bug got fixed, Software leaves dependencies behind ...12:03

HLPPLSanyone here??20:52
knomeyes, there are people here even if they didn't answer you in 2 minutes...20:52
HLPPLSlol20:52
knomeand why not ask your real question instead of something about somebody knowing something about something?20:52
AaronRaimist[m]HLPPLS: Just ask the question, don't make people say that they are here. It is a waste of time.20:52
HLPPLSwow aren't ya'll friendly.20:53
knomeHLPPLS, wasn't meant to be unfriendly20:53
HLPPLSI need to configure LTSP clients to use the default Xubuntu login system... but I just keep getting the LTSP login screen as follows:20:53

HLPPLSsorry I'm hungry.. tends to make me irritable.. lol20:55
geniiHLPPLS: It's not a trivial switchover. See https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/lightdm/2013-July/000413.html20:56
HLPPLSI was able to get it to work once or twice during testing, but it was loading ubuntu desktop- not Xu20:57

xubuntu62dhello community21:54
knomehello21:55
xubuntu62dThese time my ubuntu is planting and I donyt know why ?21:56
xubuntu62dDo you know something about it ?21:57
knomeubuntu or xubuntu?21:57
xanguaPlanting?21:58
xubuntu62dxubuntu21:58
knomeand which version?22:00
felhohi alll22:02
geniiPlanting?22:03
felhocould someone direct me to a support room for xubuntu? or is this a good place to ask?22:04
knomefelho, this is the xubuntu support channel22:04
knomeask your question22:04
xanguaPlanting?22:05
xubuntu62d_I don't know the version.22:06
geniixubuntu62d: Please clarify "planting"22:06
xubuntu62d_My google chrome sometimes crash. It doesn't work for few minutes22:07
xubuntu62d_after It comes back22:07
felhookay thanks. so I just installed 16.04 on my gf's fujitsu a544 laptop (intel i3, 4 gb ram). the install is fresh, almost no extra packages installed, just the basics like htop, irssi. everything's fine, apart from the cpu is constantly on 20%22:07
xanguaxubuntu62d_: comes back from what? Suspend?22:08
felhoi have no idea what may cause this. built in 'task manager' shows 20% cpu usage but when sorted by CPU, the highes using program is at 0,1%22:08
felhohtop shows the same.22:09
felhodoes anyone have an idea on where to look for what's causing the cpu to run at 20% constantly? i'm at a loss.22:12
xubuntu62d_yes <xangua>22:12
xanguaxubuntu62d_: did you forced hibernate?22:13
xubuntu62d_no I let and wait most of the time22:13
xubuntu62d_but sometimes I shutdown with the button22:14
xubuntu62d_I thought that it's because of 2gb ram22:14
felhoupdate: top (but not htop) shows 'kworker' is using 80% of the CPU time22:20
felhoI suppose it's not normal behaviour22:20
xanguaWhy do you have kworker on Xubuntu? What does it do?22:20
felhohogging the cpu, apparently22:22
felhook... looks like I have found something: http://askubuntu.com/posts/233947/revisions brb rebooting22:34
felhoI'm back after a reboot22:38
felholooks like the solution I posted worked, just letting you know22:39
felhoI have another question now that I think about it.. this laptop has an ssd and a hard drive (in place of the odd) installed. the hdd is not mounted by default. is there any laptop specific tool that makes sure the hdd doesnt spin when it's not in use?22:42
felhonevermind.. looks like tlp works22:48
xubuntu76dHi, is it possible to set a user account to wipe/restore to a template on each login??23:08
knomeyou mean like the guest account?23:08
xubuntu76dYes, except I cannot use the default guest account in this scenario.23:09
knomebecause?23:09
xubuntu76dLTSP23:09
geniiknome: The default LTSP DM doesn't have it23:09
xubuntu76dnope.23:09
xubuntu76dI got the LTSP client to login with the Xubuntu default one time, but then screwed up the installation, now I have no idea how I got that to work.. lol23:10
xubuntu76dforgot to take a stinking VM snapshot first..23:10
xubuntu76dSo, currently-- Client boots up, and auto logs in with a specific account, but I need it to wipe/reset at each logout..23:11
xubuntu76dour students seem to think it's hilarious to change the languages to chinese, etc..23:12
xubuntu76dI was using this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CustomizeGuestSession23:12
xubuntu76dhowever, I'm not sure how to apply this idea to a regular user...23:13
xubuntu76dgr1l0ck are you at keyboard???23:22
xubuntu76d@gr1dl0ck ?23:23
gr1dl0ckxubuntu76d: yes23:23
xubuntu76dHeya!! you were trying to help me with changing my LTSP clients to use LightDM login the other day...23:24
gr1dl0ckhow did you go?23:24
xubuntu76dended up reverting to just after update snapshot about 30 times lol23:24
xubuntu76dI just cannot get it to work, so I've been trying to get a user account to wipe/restore to a template/skel at each logout.. Not as guest- LTSP doesn't allow for it23:25
gr1dl0ckyou may need to write your own script23:26
xubuntu76dI got it to work once by editing the lts.conf options-- but then screwed it up.. Now I just can't seem to get it going again.23:27
xubuntu76dI've been through my browsing history 100 times looking for the tut I followed, but the page is now down 404 :(23:30
gr1dl0ckdoes your client side have a launcher?23:31
xubuntu76dyou mean gui vs term?23:32
bazhangxubuntu76d, something like a dock/unity and so on23:41
xubuntu76djust the xubuntu default23:42
gr1dl0ckxubuntu76d: yeah you're going deep into LTSP area, probably best to join their mailing list for ltsp support as they may have a better alternative than writing your own script23:45
gr1dl0ckhttps://sourceforge.net/p/ltsp/mailman/?source=navbar23:45
xubuntu76dok, i'll look into that tomorrow.. it's snowing like mad here, gotta head home before i get stuck on campus!!23:47
xubuntu76dthanks for the resource23:47
xubuntu76dquit23:47
