[03:12] <ken3322423> Has anyone had luck making Hyper terminal the default terminal? I installed it but it doesn't show in Terminal preferred applications in ubuntu mate
[03:22] <Menzador> Have you tried setting it using the command-line MIME editor?
[03:22] <ken3322423> Menzador: I have tried some terminal commands to no avail. Could you show me an example?
[03:23] <Menzador> ken3322423: What's HyperTerminal defined as in the apps folder? [ ls /usr/share/applications/ | grep -i hyper ]
[03:24] <ken3322423> Ah just "Hyper.desktop"
[03:25] <Menzador> [ xdg-mime default Hyper.desktop application/x-terminal-emulator ]
[03:25] <Menzador> It's case-sensitive btw
[03:25] <Menzador> I use Terminix
[03:29] <ken3322423> Hmm I don't understand, I ran that command but ctrl alt T still opens Mate Terminal :/
[03:30] <Menzador> See if [^][M]T is still linked directly to mate-terminal; if it is, just create a new shortcut to x-terminal-emulator
[03:31] <ken3322423> Sorry what do you mean by [^][M]T?
[03:31] <Menzador> Ctrl+Alt+T
[03:32] <Menzador> ^ is Primary, M is Meta
[03:35] <Astro7467> Have you tried ; update-alternatives --config x-terminal-emulator
[03:37] <Menzador> Gosh, I've done it again - I forgot that Ubuntu uses update-alternatives :P
[03:37] <Astro7467> alternative is you just want the shortcut key to be assigned to Hyper is to clear the defualt and create a custome shortcut for Ctrl-Alt-T in Control Centre -> Keyboard Shortcuts
[03:38] <Menzador> Yeah, but it'd be hard-bound to HyperTerminal if that were the case. Binding to x-terminal-emulator would be smarter because the default terminal can be changed without having to unset and re-set the shortcur.
[03:38] <Menzador> *shortcut.
[03:38] <Astro7467> I hv different default (x-terminal-emulator) vs user/interactive terminals (Cltrl-0Alt-T) as I want light for default, features for interactive
[03:42] <ken3322423> this is what I'm seeing in update-alternatives. not sure what I'm supposed to select :/ https://dpaste.de/GU7y
[03:47] <Astro7467> If HyperTerminal hasn't registered itself asa x-terminal-emulator alternative AFAIK you can use update-alternative --set x-terminal-emulator <hyperterminal-cmd-path>
[03:48] <Astro7467> so if hyperterm starts hyperterminal you can get the path with 'which hyperterm'
[03:50] <ken3322423> Astro7467: I'm getting an error saying that `alternative for path/to/hyper for x-term-emu not registered`
[03:52] <Astro7467> sorry, needt to use sudo update-alternatives ....
[03:53] <Astro7467> for example I can set to xterm successfully with;
[03:53] <Astro7467> sudo update-alternatives --set x-terminal-emulator /usr/bin/xterm
[03:54] <ken3322423> Astro7467: here is my full error `update-alternatives: error: alternative /usr/bin/hyper for x-terminal-emulator not registered; not setting`
[03:54] <ken3322423> should I have typed x-terminal-emulator or something like hyperterm?
[03:54] <ken3322423> sorry I mean to say that the error shows up even after running with sudo
[03:55] <Astro7467> what do you get for;
[03:55] <Astro7467> which hyper
[03:55] <ken3322423>  /usr/bin/hyper
[03:59] <Astro7467> ok, so we are both learning here - --set only works for registered alternatives, so we need to register, then it will be on the list
[03:59] <Astro7467> to register;
[03:59] <Menzador> ken3322423: Where's HyperTerminal even installed?
[04:00] <ken3322423> xD I am not even sure..
[04:01] <ken3322423>  /opt/Hyper/hyper
[04:03] <Astro7467> sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/x-terminal-emulator x-terminal-emulator /usr/bin/hyper 200
[04:04] <Astro7467> update-alternatives --install <link> <name> <path> <priority>
[04:06] <ken3322423> Astro7467 I did this and it seemed to work but how can I test to see if it is working? right clicking in a folder and clicking `open in terminal` still opens Mate terminal
[04:10] <ken3322423> It's getting late I have to head to bed. Good night fellas and appreciate your help
[04:12] <Astro7467> last one ;
[04:12] <Astro7467> control centre -> preferred applications -> system
[04:12] <Astro7467> terminal set there also
[05:20] <karim_> hi
[09:41] <ubuntu-mate> sup?
[09:46] <saeeddeeas> hello all howe to serch for software ??
[09:47] <Astro7467> @saeeddeeas: in the Software Boutique there are other software centres you can install and browser
[12:04] <loloytim> hi... just testing out my newly installed ubuntu mate-16.10... feels great. Many thanks to ubuntu team.
[12:54] <ken3322423> Astro7467: Just checked preferred applications for terminal and there is no Hyper terminal there. It's currently set as Mate Terminal
[14:48] <Guest74038> Dag beste mensen, ik heb een probleem met ubuntu mate
[14:49] <Guest74038> als ik op schijven klikt dan werk het progje niet ook als ik er een usb stick in stop laat hij ook niets zien
[17:56] <jared> When i listen to music, via youtube, my system freezes, and I got t hold power button. How do I fix this problem?
[18:01] <sixwheeledbeast> jared: I had a similar issue turned out to be faulty RAM
[18:07] <Akuli> he quit already, but i'd guess probably his graphics drivers
[18:07] <Akuli> i had an issue like that on the first computer i ever ran a non-windows on
[18:29] <sixwheeledbeast> It could well be, I spend ages trying to diagnose an issue like that thinking drivers, until I did a memtest.
[18:39] <sixwheeledbeast> it's a shame people don't hang around longer. Unfortunately many have no patience.
[21:41] <Slown> Hello everyone
[22:40] <swift110> hey all
[22:41] <tiox> Fun times.
[22:42] <tiox> **Fun times.**
[22:42] <tiox> So I have Nemo yeah? I can't seem to have it automount media on CD or DVD.
[22:53] <swift110> how are you Tintomatic
[22:53] <swift110> how are you tiox
[22:53] <tiox> Slightly peeved.
[23:11] <swift110> why tiox
[23:16] <tiox> swift110: Because Nemo isn't mounting anything I put into /dev/sr0 or /dev/sr1
[23:17] <tiox> And then, when I made it so the media automounts, /etc/fstab stopped the system from launching and put it into E-mode.
[23:17] <tiox> Bundles and bundles of stupid.
[23:39] <swift110> oh i see
