| sixwheeledbeast | I'd be interested how well hibernate works if that is the case. | 00:26 |

| mate|19779 | hi | 00:28 |
| mate|19779 | I am new to ubuntu mate it looks good | 00:28 |
| mate|19779 | i am thinking of moving to Linux based OS from Windows | 00:29 |
| mate|19779 | I am an IT Pro | 00:29 |
| randall | cool | 00:29 |
| mate|19779 | coming from Microsoft based background but moving into Cisco networking | 00:29 |
| mate|19779 | I need a divorce from Microsoft | 00:30 |
| randall | micrisift joined the linux foundation you know | 00:30 |
| mate|19779 | good for them....lol | 00:30 |
| randall | *microsoft | 00:30 |
| mate|19779 | the whole cortana thing freaks me out lol | 00:30 |
| mate|19779 | i need to at least adopt Ubuntu for my personal computing | 00:31 |
| mate|19779 | may be run a VM windows machine for work | 00:31 |
| randall | could work | 00:40 |
| randall | I got amazon's "cortana" on my tablet now | 00:41 |
| jack_ | its not as hard as people make it out to be | 00:45 |
| randall | I adopted linux for pure financial reasons, I was running 32 bit vista on a 64 bit machine and couldn't afford an os upgrade, but 64 bit mint 12 was free,so..... | 00:54 |
| jack_ | lol agreed | 00:59 |
| jack_ | windows is not worth the cost in my opinion | 00:59 |
| jack_ | it gets viruses and melware to easy but you pay for and in linux its free and your more then likely not going to get a virus or melware | 01:00 |
| randall | linux malware is something you gotta be teatering on the edge of real smart and real stupid to get infected | 01:01 |
| randall | and prety much all the linux malwares get neutered on the next kernel update | 01:02 |
| jack_ | can you tell how i turn the barking off xD | 01:04 |
| jack_ | i have never seen a Linux distro do that | 01:04 |
| randall | go into ther pauv and mute system sounds | 01:05 |
| jack_ | thanks | 01:08 |
| randall | yep | 01:08 |
| jack_ | I thought is was kind of funny -\]\\\\\\\\\\\]\\ | 01:09 |
| jack_ | ]]]]\\\\\\\\\\\\\ | 01:09 |
| randall | you ok man? | 01:10 |
| jack_ | some thing got stuck in my keyboard xD | 01:10 |
| randall | lawl | 01:10 |
| jack_ | does ps4 controller work on mate? | 01:12 |
| randall | I believe so, you may need a special driver like xboxdrv for the 360 game pad | 01:14 |
| randall | no wait, ps4 is bluetooth,, it might just work out of the box | 01:16 |
| jack_ | can i use usb to hook in my desktop does not have blue tooth | 01:35 |
| randall | give it a try | 01:42 |
| randall | but bluetooth dongles are generally cheaper than wifi dongles these days | 01:42 |
| randall | and bluetooth headphones...this pair are not only the best quality sounding headphones I ever had,, but there's no wires for the cat to bite in half to boot | 01:44 |
| jack_ | lol | 01:45 |
| randall | if it's not to big a shock to the old wallet, the commercial for the new beats bluetooth headphones touts 40 hours listening time | 01:47 |
| jack_ | never used beats before | 02:02 |
| randall | same | 02:04 |
| jack_ | should games that work for regular Ubuntu work on mate? | 02:27 |
| jack_ | from steam | 02:27 |
| randall | yes, steam games with linux support just work,, steam takes care of the dirty work | 02:30 |
| jack_ | that is awesome | 02:31 |
| jack_ | you play any games? | 02:32 |
| jack_ | from steam that are on-line? | 02:32 |
| randall | no actual good online games for linux on steam sadly | 02:34 |
| randall | I play sso in wine though | 02:34 |
| randall | ddo | 02:35 |
| jack_ | you should check out Insurgency if you like FPS | 02:35 |
| jack_ | its on steam for 2$ | 02:36 |
| randall | not a big online fps fan, or moba, or anything pvp, guess I'm just not that competitive | 02:37 |
| jack_ | I wish they would do it for fall out 4 and skyrim xD | 02:42 |
| randall | yeah, the good folks at bethesda used dx10 for fallout 4 and skyrim se | 02:43 |
| randall | wine only supports dx9 | 02:43 |
| jack_ | I know x( | 02:43 |
| jack_ | and they did not port it to linux on steam | 02:44 |
| randall | zenemax as a whole has taken so many huge dumps pn the linux community that we may never get that smell out of the fabrics | 02:44 |
| jack_ | most not think theres enough money to be made to be worth the time | 02:44 |
| jack_ | zenemax? | 02:45 |
| randall | every id game either has been ported to linux, or could be,, and zenemax made all that just "go away" | 02:45 |
| randall | zenemax is the parent company of bethesda and id | 02:46 |
| randall | even their dos based games pre-morrowind could effortlessly be given a dosbox wrapper and released to us penguins, but they haven't | 02:47 |
| randall | doom 1,2,3 all are all not only possible in linux but already done, by someone else, but not officially from zenemax/bethesda/ud | 02:49 |
| randall | doom 2016 is already in vulcan, before that was opengl | 02:49 |
| jack_ | the new doom made by them was made in linux i think | 02:51 |
| randall | not publicly available in linux though | 02:53 |
| jack_ | what xD | 02:54 |
| randall | I firmly believe had ID still been independant, all things doom would be available as linux ports | 02:55 |
| randall | zenemax by virtue of action has pretty much given the finger to linux | 02:55 |
| az | hello, I do not see partitions in my sidepanel any more in file browser | 02:55 |
| randall | are they mounted? | 02:56 |
| jack_ | they make the game in linux and don't let people on linux play it garbage | 02:56 |
| az | I do not recall doing any change to settings. randall they are not mounted but they were showing before so I can mount them easily | 02:56 |
| randall | youd'd be suprised what's made in linux and only released in windows | 02:56 |
| jack_ | hmm | 02:57 |
| randall | brb | 02:57 |
| jack_ | you have gparted? | 02:57 |
| jack_ | so we can tell if there mounted or not | 02:57 |
| az | jack_, they are not mounted I'm sure, they do not get mounted tell I request it | 02:59 |
| jack_ | just making sure | 02:59 |
| az | I have gparted it's opening now | 02:59 |
| jack_ | you sure you didnt run a bad command and repartition them by mistake? | 03:00 |
| az | I hope so | 03:00 |
| az | they are there | 03:03 |
| jack_ | but there no in devices | 03:09 |
| jack_ | not | 03:09 |
| jack_ | try rebooting | 03:09 |
| jack_ | see if that fixes it | 03:09 |
| az | well, one reason to get linux is not to reboot. I do not think this will fix it | 03:10 |
| az | I did reboot this morning | 03:10 |
| jack_ | where they there before you did reboot? | 03:11 |
| randall | true, the only reason a linux machine should ever have to reboot would be a kernel update | 03:12 |
| randall | I went nearly a month once | 03:13 |
| az | jack_, no | 03:13 |
| jack_ | I dont like leaving my computer on that can cause ram bleeding or is that6 just windows thing | 03:14 |
| randall | just windows | 03:14 |
| jack_ | dude thanks for telling me that | 03:15 |
| az | in linux if there is a problem you can get to the source of it. because it's not a trade secret. thus debugging issues and getting to the source of the problem should be welcomed | 03:16 |
| jack_ | i really dont know why it will not show his partitions in the file browser | 03:17 |
| Artemis3 | randall, in any case skyrim runs just fine with wine | 03:17 |
| randall | Artemis3, vanilla skyrim does | 03:18 |
| jack_ | can you mod it? | 03:20 |
| jack_ | and it still run | 03:20 |
| randall | jack_, if you mod skyrim in wine you're playing russian roulette, there's no boos or loot | 03:24 |
| randall | boss | 03:25 |
| jack_ | damn | 03:40 |
| jack_ | why x( | 03:40 |
| jack_ | its one of the best parts of skyrim | 03:40 |
| randall | boss used to work, but became defunct, loot never worked | 03:40 |
| randall | and besides the workshop, to my knowklege there are no functioning mod organizors | 03:41 |
| randall | O'm sure Artemis3 could correct me if I'm mistaken | 03:42 |
| randall | I'm not certian if you can alt-tab out if you use a virtual desktop, never occurred to me to test it | 03:44 |
| randall | tbh if I had a console that played skyrim I'd be doing that instead of compromising in wine | 03:45 |
| jack_ | i have windows on another SSD | 03:55 |
| jack_ | just paranoid its infected with melware that the anti virus cant find | 03:56 |
| jack_ | cuss it ran fine on the net when i first built my desk top now it is strangely slow | 03:56 |
| randall | well, normally I'd duggrsy clamav, but how to get it to scan a different drive? that kind of console sorcery is beyond my understanding | 03:57 |
| randall | *suggest | 03:57 |
| jack_ | you have to have it dual booted with windows | 03:58 |
| jack_ | I dont think you can scan another drive | 03:59 |
| jack_ | clam AV open source? | 03:59 |
| jack_ | i may be wrong about the dual boot thing i just dont see why you cant cuss you can get to your windows files when dual booted | 04:02 |
| randall | clam av is opensource, it's to my knowlege the only antivirus available in linux | 04:03 |
| az | randall, the only open source antivirus available for linux maybe, but not there are multiple commercial options too | 04:34 |
| randall | az, he said he's tooparanoid to boot into his windows drive,, so linux av would be the only option | 04:38 |
| az | I do not know if I got you clearly but what I meant to say is that there are commercial antivirus applications for linux | 05:04 |
| odroid | I've installed odoo ver 10 on odroid c2 running mate 16.04. How do I find the physical path to the webserver that odoo is using? | 05:08 |
| odroid | Wanting to use the webserver for sites in addition to odoo. | 05:09 |
| odroid | To access the odoo server, I enter localhost:8069 in the address bar of my browser | 05:10 |
| redmatria | Hi | 06:02 |
| redmatria | "The solution (so they say) is to set the monitor brightness level to 100% thus preventing any possible screen flicker from the DC modulation and instead adjust the brightness and contrast levels in your GPU settings." | 06:02 |
| redmatria | Do you know how to adjust this using Ubuntu MATE? | 06:02 |
| stickybranches | Hello! :D | 06:07 |
| stickybranches | I'd just like to say, I've been rocking Ubuntu 16.04 LTS for a while (old Arch user) and it has been a joyful experience! Thank you Martin Wimpress and his crew! Also thank you Canonical! :D | 06:08 |

| mate|10185 | Hi | 06:46 |
| mate|10185 | thanks for the community for such a great distro | 06:47 |
| mate|10185 | im using ubuntu mate 16.04 | 06:47 |
| mate|10185 | can i upgrade mate to 1.16 version | 06:47 |
| mate|10185 | currently battery backup is great. Will upgrading mate cause any issues | 06:48 |
| mate|10185 | ?/ | 06:48 |
| mate|10185 | Sorry for asking such questions | 06:55 |
| mate|10185 | But I am looking for stability | 06:55 |
| mate|10185 | I saw that some bugs were ironed out in 1.16, thats the reason i'm askng | 06:56 |
| mate|10185 | wow thanks! | 07:02 |
| redmatria | I am also looking for a new monitor that is very easy on my eyes. | 07:19 |
| redmatria | My current one bugs my eyes. Apparently a low haze or glossy screen can reduce eye strain. | 07:19 |
| * randall suggests redshift | 07:28 | |
| redmatria | Funnily I use Ubuntu MATE and am quite a heavy mate drinker, probably like most of our best coders. | 07:38 |
| redmatria | I'm looking for a GLOSSY monitor. Why are these so rare nowadays? | 07:41 |
| redmatria | I found this thread on glossy screens. https://hardforum.com/threads/the-new-glossy-ah-ips-dell-s2415h.1836144/ | 07:47 |
| redmatria | I had a glossy NEC screen years back. It was beautiful. | 07:48 |

| sudosundu | Hello! | 15:22 |
| sudosundu | Will ubuntu mate 16.04 get mate 1.16 | 15:22 |
| sudosundu | I mean like 1.14 upgrade? | 15:23 |
| Akuli | i have no idea. do you need mate 1.16? | 15:26 |
| sudosundu | yes | 15:26 |
| mate|91613 | Anyone else having problems getting Virtualbox to work? | 18:04 |
| nomic | y doesn't it work | 18:06 |
| nomic | does it not work with a specific iso | 18:06 |
| nomic | virtualbox works | 18:06 |
| Akuli | mate|91613, what do you want to run in virtualbox and how are you trying to do that? | 18:07 |
| mate|91613 | Ubuntu Mate 16.10 ... I run "apt-get install virtualbox" ... and there is error: modprobe vboxdrv failed. Please use 'dmesg' to find out why | 18:08 |
| Akuli | hmm | 18:09 |
| Akuli | ok | 18:09 |
| Akuli | virtualbox does all kinds of weird stuff when you install it, you could try qemu instead but i have no experience with it | 18:09 |
| nomic | use synaptic to install virtualbox | 18:11 |
| nomic | sudo apt-get install synaptic | 18:11 |
| nomic | then search for virtualbox | 18:11 |
| nomic | app is 'virtualbox-ose' | 18:11 |
| nomic | .. install | 18:11 |
| nomic | virtualbox works | 18:11 |
| Akuli | nomic, he quit already and synaptic wouldn't make a difference at all | 18:12 |
| odroid | nick | 19:07 |
| ubuntu-mate_ | Just checking if this is working. MAC PPC G5 live CD running. Anyone confirm reading this? | 19:12 |
| ubuntu-mate_ | Seems stable to me. I guess I'll go ahead with the install. Thought I would see if there were any other PPC users | 19:13 |
| jack | is there a way to set your background to change pictures like in windows | 19:18 |
| jack | i don't remember what you call it xD | 19:18 |
| merlin_ | hello | 19:20 |
| jack | whats up | 19:21 |
| merlin_ | i have a little problem | 19:21 |
| jack | tell me about it | 19:21 |
| jack | I may be of some assistance | 19:21 |
| merlin_ | i have a bluetooth icon behind my wlan on my PC but i dont have a bluetooth-card | 19:22 |
| jack | so is saying you have blue tooth on? | 19:22 |
| merlin_ | with out bluetooth support | 19:23 |
| jack | hmm | 19:23 |
| jack | so you want that blue tooth mark to go away correct? | 19:24 |
| merlin_ | i can exit it but after restart it comes agian | 19:24 |
| merlin_ | yes | 19:24 |
| jack | could try restarting Xorg might fix it | 19:25 |
| jack | you mess with any files as root? | 19:26 |
| jack | sudo is root if you dont know that | 19:26 |
| merlin_ | i have just new installed for 10 min | 19:26 |
| jack | o ok | 19:27 |
| jack | just asking man xD | 19:27 |
| jack | or girl idk | 19:27 |
| jack | hold on a sec | 19:27 |
| merlin_ | ok | 19:27 |
| jack | still there | 19:29 |
| merlin_ | yes | 19:29 |
| jack | try this | 19:30 |
| jack | sudo service lightdm restart and see if that fixes it | 19:30 |
| jack | dont freak out its going to make your screen go black for a sec xD | 19:30 |
| jack | and if your doing any thing save it first | 19:31 |
| Akuli | if he wants to get rid of that icon he could just remove blueman... | 19:31 |
| jack | true | 19:31 |
| jack | first thing i thought to try man | 19:32 |
| jack | what i i use to do on regular ubuntu when some thing on the GUI messed up | 19:32 |
| Akuli | ubuntu-mate_, yes, we see it. i have an imac g3 :) | 19:32 |
| Akuli | 256mb of ram, so i wouldn't be able to run 16.04 with a gui on it :) | 19:33 |
| merlin_ | back here agian the some fucking problem | 19:34 |
| jack | tell him how to take off blueman | 19:34 |
| Akuli | merlin_, sudo apt-get remove blueman | 19:34 |
| Akuli | that should be all it takes to get rid of the bluetooth icon :) | 19:35 |
| merlin_ | ok i restart and then come back | 19:36 |
| Akuli | does it need a reboot? maybe it does | 19:37 |
| jack | hey Akuli do you know how to set up the back round where it loops through a few different pictures | 19:37 |
| jack | or can mate not do that | 19:37 |
| jack | and it happens every time he reboots | 19:37 |
| Akuli | one way is to just write a shell script that sets it every 30 minutes or whatever | 19:37 |
| Akuli | oh | 19:37 |
| jack | it work | 19:38 |
| Akuli | if that's what he wants he can just make a script and add it in the autostart application thing | 19:38 |
| Akuli | like a script that chooses a random file | 19:38 |
| jack | what who wants | 19:38 |
| jack | merlin? | 19:39 |
| merlin_ | its dont come back the service are removed? | 19:39 |
| Akuli | <jack> hey Akuli do you know how to set up the back round where it loops through a few different pictures | 19:39 |
| Akuli | merlin_, should be | 19:39 |
| merlin_ | my ubuntu-mate start slowly is this normal | 19:40 |
| Akuli | jack, i would do this http://dpaste.com/15PSD8H | 19:40 |
| Akuli | merlin_, how slowly? | 19:40 |
| Akuli | 14.04 might be faster because it uses upstart instead of systemd | 19:40 |
| merlin_ | first grapfic fail than black screen than grey screnn then logon screen | 19:41 |
| merlin_ | i have a hdd | 19:41 |
| merlin_ | no sdd | 19:41 |
| Akuli | which of those steps is slow? | 19:41 |
| merlin_ | black screen | 19:41 |
| Akuli | how many seconds is the gray screen there? like roughly | 19:42 |
| Akuli | 5 or 20 or 60 | 19:42 |
| merlin_ | 5 grey 20 black grapic fail 10 | 19:42 |
| merlin_ | i have a gtx 960 | 19:42 |
| jack | what driver do you have installed? | 19:43 |
| Akuli | do you have a menu that allows you to choose an operating system when you start? | 19:43 |
| merlin_ | yyour means grub no i have only installed ubuntu-m and it makes diffrent i use nivida driver, with x.org is the same problem | 19:44 |
| Akuli | yes, i mean grub. does it display a menu? | 19:45 |
| merlin_ | no | 19:45 |
| Akuli | ok | 19:45 |
| merlin_ | no memory test nothing | 19:46 |
| jack | has it done this sense you installed? | 19:46 |
| merlin_ | I have the system with the automatic wizard, as the partitioning takes over, offline, the image got and updates and made so | 19:49 |
| jack | hmm | 19:50 |
| merlin_ | 16.04 LTS with Kernel 4.4.0-57-generic the x64 with mate 1.12.1 desktop 8 GB RAM AMD-FX 6300 and NVIDIA GTX 960 | 19:54 |
| merlin_ | Toshiba Hard Drive, Gigabyte Mainborad, | 19:57 |
| jack | SSD? | 19:57 |
| merlin_ | no HDD# | 19:57 |
| merlin_ | old school mechanical Hard Drive SATA 3 1 TB | 19:58 |
| merlin_ | I knows the sdds are much faster | 19:59 |
| merlin_ | but much expensiver | 19:59 |
| jack | I have two xD | 20:00 |
| jack | and they are | 20:00 |
| merlin_ | i was a windows nerd | 20:00 |
| jack | never really had windows to use it | 20:02 |
| jack | when i did i took it off the lap top i got cuss it was slow af | 20:02 |
| merlin_ | Windows are better for players | 20:03 |
| merlin_ | but i dont play anymore | 20:03 |
| jack | players? | 20:03 |
| jack | video games | 20:03 |
| merlin_ | yes | 20:03 |
| merlin_ | i support more games than linux | 20:04 |
| merlin_ | i have stop playing video games | 20:04 |
| jack | thats only true cuss they only make them for windows I think Linux would play the games batter if they made them for linux | 20:04 |
| jack | and why? | 20:04 |
| merlin_ | i have seen in linux the future of personal computing in a few years and i dont have the money all 3 years a new windows to buy, and i hate spying me | 20:06 |
| merlin_ | Windows deaing slowly | 20:07 |
| merlin_ | my englisch is not really the best only school englisch | 20:08 |
| Akuli | that's fine, nobody cares about english skills in irc :) | 20:09 |
| Akuli | if people understand each other that's enough | 20:09 |
| merlin_ | the best ceo of mircrosoft was Bill Gates and then the company goes down | 20:10 |
| merlin_ | why it doesnt give notepad ++ | 20:15 |
| Akuli | ubuntu? | 20:16 |
| Akuli | there's plenty of great alternatives to notepad++, but if you really want notepad++ you can run it under wine | 20:16 |
| sudosundu | HI! I am facing a weird issue in u-mate 16.04 with mate 1.12 | 20:20 |
| Akuli | tell us | 20:20 |
| merlin_ | what is so a alternativ | 20:20 |
| Akuli | merlin_, geany is probably closest to it, sudo apt-get install geany | 20:21 |
| merlin_ | funny i used geany under windows to programm mini programmes | 20:21 |
| Akuli | then you know how to use it already :) | 20:22 |
| sudosundu | if i have opened a pdf file and home folder. I minimized the pdf. Then I just tried to increase the folder size 'decrease the view size" but i could see the pdf's menu getting change | 20:22 |
| merlin_ | but my programming skills are really bad hello world and noting more its really compleced in c++ | 20:24 |
| Akuli | i think c++ sucks | 20:24 |
| Akuli | python is fun | 20:24 |
| sudosundu | to be precise, eventhough the pdf is minimized, when i work with some other window, that windows tool bar seems to act like it is not present | 20:24 |
| Akuli | merlin_, a python tutorial i have written https://github.com/Akuli/python-tutorial#python-programming-tutorial | 20:25 |
| sudosundu | help please! | 20:26 |
| edu | hola | 20:26 |
| Akuli | sudosundu, i don't really see how that's a problem | 20:26 |
| Akuli | the pdf application is still usable, isn't it? | 20:26 |
| sudosundu | im sorry for bad english | 20:26 |
| Akuli | your english is fine :) | 20:26 |
| sudosundu | I have opened control center and a pdf. Then i minimized the control center. Then if i click somewhere in pdf, i'm opening something from control center | 20:28 |
| Akuli | oh i see | 20:29 |
| sudosundu | It is like i'm interacting with control center. but I have already minized it | 20:29 |
| sudosundu | minimized* | 20:29 |
| Akuli | can you shoot a short video clip of doing that? | 20:29 |
| Akuli | kazam is an easy program for doing that | 20:29 |
| sudosundu | But it is not happening everytime | 20:29 |
| Akuli | how many out of 10 times? | 20:30 |
| sudosundu | So, i guess I would not be able to do that | 20:30 |
| sudosundu | 2/10 | 20:30 |
| Akuli | you can do that, it will take about five shots | 20:30 |
| Akuli | kind of a pain though... | 20:30 |
| Akuli | your issue does indeed sound very weird, i don't really know how to help with that | 20:31 |
| sudosundu | Hmm! But it is disturbing my work with libre office! | 20:31 |
| sudosundu | ok I'll try to capture and come back here | 20:32 |
| Akuli | if you can't capture a video of it people may have hard time believing you | 20:32 |
| sudosundu | ok i got it | 20:32 |
| sudosundu | thanks! | 20:33 |
