ubuntu-matei need to know how to use ubuntu mate i'm a newbie00:32
ubuntu-matei would like to install wine.. how should i proceed?00:33
Astro7467WINE is available through the Software Boutique (click software on the welcome screen)00:36
Astro7467search for wine and you can install WINE or PlayOnLinux00:37
Astro7467alternatively, if you have a Windows license, you can install VirtualBox which will let you run a Virtual Machine with full Windows install00:39
blackwaterhello good people of #ubuntu-mate01:20
blackwateris it possible to use a different panel than mate-panel, in ubuntu mate, such as xfce4-panel?01:21
blackwaterI can manually run xfce4-panel, but if I put it in my ~/.profile, I get unexpected behavior where the window manager doesn't load properly (no borders on windows)01:21
IrcDroidClientwhat's the ssh default password?05:38
nomicpasswords are set by the  user05:41
nomicthere is no default05:41
nomicyou set the password on installation05:41
nomicwhat'd be the point of a password if everyone had it05:42
nomicssh = ssh to a user05:42
nomicpassword of the user is made on creation of the user05:42
IrcDroidClienti mean the ubuntu-mate for raspberry,i have no hdmi,so i can only remote logging05:44

DroidClientit is ridivulous06:38
alkisgIs it?06:39
Astro7467what is ridiculous?06:39
alkisgNo, it's ridivulous06:39
alkisgNot ridiculous06:39
Astro7467oh - stupid me - but now I don't know what that is06:39
DroidClient theres no default acount,what a shit06:40
alkisgYeah it's a shit, ridivulous06:40
alkisgIt would help if you mentioned the context though06:41
Astro7467ircdroidclient = DroidClient?06:42
Astro7467from earlier?06:42
DroidClienti can only ssh connect to raspberry with display06:43
Astro7467I think that is for initial setup06:43
alkisgDroidClient: put the sd card to a pc, chroot to it, and run `passwd user` or adduser or whatever else you like06:43
Astro7467alkisg: AFAIK SSH-server is not in the default pi image - same as x86 installs06:45
alkisgHe can also install it when using chroot06:45
alkisgHe can also install epoptes-client and have gui access to it, remotely06:45
Astro7467true06:46
DroidClienti got it06:53

Ntemisyes15:47
Akuliweird15:47
Akulicaja has always been a really stable file manager for me15:48
Ntemiswhat is weird? caja is buggy15:48
Akulinot for me...15:48
Akulicreate a new user15:48
Akuli$ sudo adduser test15:48
Ntemiswhy?15:48
Akulii want to see if a fresh user account has this problem15:48
alkisgYou can also test with the "guest" account15:49
Ntemistry to use sshfs to mount15:49
Ntemisthen work some time and try to unmount it15:49
alkisgBut Ntemis you're using non-stock versions, so instability is expected15:49
Ntemisno am not15:49
alkisgsshfs is unstable too15:49
Ntemis1.14 official here15:49
alkisgYou say there that you downgraded from 1.16 to 1.1415:49
alkisgWhich distro version?15:50
Ntemisyes so i went to official release15:50
Ntemisubuntu mate15:50
alkisg16.04?15:50
Ntemisyes15:50
alkisgSo 1.12 is official there15:50
Ntemissec15:50
alkisg1.14 is not official15:50
Ntemisah yes15:50
Ntemisi have 1.21.115:50
Ntemisso official15:50
Ntemisshit15:50

alkisgWhat's the output of: dpkg -l | nc termbin.com 999915:51
Ntemishttp://termbin.com/1nym15:51
alkisgit got cut in half, maybe it was too long, try this instead: dpkg -l | grep '*mate*' | nc termbin.com 999915:54
alkisgBtw, sshfs is buggy, if you get issues just with that15:55

gusthallo whats up15:57
Akulialkisg, '*mate*' is not how grep's regexes work16:03
Akuliyou probably want '.*mate.*' instead16:03
Akulihmm16:04
Akuli'*mate*' matches nothing16:04
alkisggrep mate, sorry, I was initially going for dpkg -l '*mate*' | grep ^ii16:05
alkisgdpkg uses globs instead of regexes, so it works there16:05
Akulioh there we go :)16:05
Akuliyeah16:05
Ntemisalkisg: i get Use netcat.16:05
alkisgdpkg -l | grep 'mate' | nc termbin.com 999916:05
alkisgNtemis: try that one ^16:05
Ntemishttp://termbin.com/7h1p16:06
Akulitry this: dpkg -l | grep -E '(mate|caja)' | nc termbin.com 999916:07
Ntemisi use sshfs with cinammon desktop all the time and i never had an issue16:07
Ntemishttp://termbin.com/33x416:07
Ntemisso i simply cant accept that is buggy16:07
alkisgI've filed a lot of bug reports for sshfs, so I simply cannot accept what you say16:08
alkisgAnd I'm using it daily in 1000+ schools, thousands of clients16:08
alkisgWith ltsp16:08
Ntemiswhat issues you have?16:08
alkisgubuntu-mate-welcome is from 16.1016:09
alkisgSo you're not using the stock version in at least some programs16:09
Akuliare you using compiz?16:09
Ntemisi ppa purge the 1.1616:09
alkisgppa-purge isn't error-free16:09
Ntemismaybe some apps didnt reverted16:09
alkisgTry with a fresh installation16:10
Ntemisno way16:10
Ntemisam switching to cinammon16:10
Akulihave you always had this problem or did it just magically pop up?16:10
Ntemisalways16:10
Akuligo with cinnamon if it works for you16:10
Ntemisbut on 1.16 was a disaster16:10
Ntemison 1.12 is bareable16:10
Ntemison 14.04 i didnt have any issues16:11
Ntemisno freezes no nothing16:11
Akulii'm still using 14.04 with mate 1.8 btw16:11
Ntemisi need to be on 16.0416:11
Akuliwhy16:12
Ntemisi have compile issues on < versions16:12
Akuliwhat program16:12
NtemisLibreelec and Lakka16:12
Akulii guess you are aware of apt-get build-dep?16:12
Ntemisis  not a package issue16:12
Akulianyway16:13
Akuliuse cinnamon if you like it16:13
Ntemisi dont but is the one i need to go to until mate fixes16:13
Ntemisis my second desktop of choice that i can bare working on16:14
Akuliyou don't need to run caja16:14
Akulijust grab whatever other file manager you want16:14
Akulilike thunar from xfce or anything16:14
Ntemisi know but have never worked ok with me16:14
Akuliso other file managers have problems too, not just caja?16:14
Ntemisbecause some folders were opening with caja anyway16:14
Akulisounds easy to change16:15
Ntemisi had two file managers open and i couldnt even copy paste into one another16:15
Akulithere's more than caja and thunar16:15
Akuliwhat does cinnamon use? i dont remember16:15
Akuliyou could try that16:15
Ntemisi had to drag and drop to copy16:15
Akuliisn't that an easy way to do it?16:16
Akuliwhatever, if copy-pasting is faster for you then you want to do it that way and its ok16:16
Ntemiswhy file managers are incompatible?16:16
Ntemisin the first place16:16
Akulithey shouldn't be16:16
Ntemisyeah exactly16:16
Akuliwere they two different file managers?16:16
Ntemisyes16:16
Akuliwhy are you running two different file managers?16:16
Akuliin the first place16:17
Akuli)16:17
Ntemisone caja one something else16:17
Akulilike i said16:17
Ntemisbecause caja was insisting opening shares16:17
Akulii think we can change that16:17
Ntemisi could open witht he other one16:17
Akulidid you set the other one as default in mate's default programs thingy?16:17
Ntemisofc16:17
Ntemisbut nothing works ok as usual16:18
Ntemissome folders caja some folders the other one16:18
Ntemisi could copy paste i had to drag and drop pita16:18

Anna_Hello. How safe the Ubuntu-Mate 16.04 Guest session is for a house full of kids who like to play with all sort of screen-buttons?16:32
Akulidepends whether you have internet access or not16:35
Akulithe computer is going to be fine unless they damage it physically16:35
Akuliand you have a strong enough password if they figure how to get out of the guest session... :)16:35
Anna_They can't access personal files or system files/settings, can they? I mean not even if they wanted, right? The user account does have a password, indeed, and they wouldn't dare to physically do anything with the computer... but what did you mean about internet access?16:39
Akulithey can't16:40
Akuliif you want to be sure, just try it16:40
Akuliby internet access i mean that they can probably look up whatever they want to, but since they can't actually put any files on the computer it's impossible to get any kind of viruses or malware16:40
Akulior if they manage to actually get any it's going to be gone when they log out16:41
Anna_So... let me see if I understood... the guest session works in a temporary folder... like a virtual box or a live CD session?16:43
Akuliyes16:45
Akuliit's technically more like a non-sudoer user that is deleted when logging out16:45
Akuliexcept that it's even more restricted than a regular non-sudoer16:45
Anna_I don't know about technical terms. It's just very good to know I don't have to disable the Guest account! Thank you Akuli :-)16:47
Akuliif you're worried about people viewing your files keep in mind that anyone with a linux usb stick can view almost anyone's files16:49
Akulior destroy any operating system16:49
Anna_I have also set a hard drive password. Isn't enough?16:51
Akuliif you have done that then yes, it's enough :)16:52
Akulii never bother with it16:52
Anna_I was wondering if I could use the same laptop for handling my sensitive bussiness files the morning and give it to the kids for games the evening (no money for second computer). Thanks for the reassurement!16:59
