[02:01] <nc_> I'm having internet problems on just one pc of mine when I go to any browser it says can't resolve DNS server
[02:02] <nc_> my internet is connected fine it shows my wifi is on and has a signal
[02:02] <nc_> I tried restarting network manager
[02:02] <nc_> that didn't help
[02:41] <mparillo> can you ping 172.217.5.238

[03:55] <valorie> !wubi
[03:55] <ubottu> Wubi was a way to install Ubuntu from within Windows, but it is no longer supported in recent versions of Ubuntu and Windows, and was never well maintained even for Ubuntu 12.04. Do not use Wubi. See !install for other options for installing Ubuntu.

[09:40] <lordievader> Good morning.
[09:44] <R13ose> How do I adjust brightness of screen?
[09:45] <lordievader> Laptop or desktop?
[09:45] <R13ose> Laptop
[09:45] <lordievader> R13ose: Laptops usualy have shortcuts for that.
[09:45] <R13ose> Not working
[09:46] <lordievader> Did you disable acpi functions?
[09:46] <R13ose> no
[09:47] <lordievader> The slider in the ui also does nothing?
[09:48] <R13ose> Which slider?
[09:49] <lordievader> System settings -> power -> screen brightness
[09:51] <R13ose> I don't see that
[09:52] <lordievader> R13ose: Could you send a screenshot of the power management module in system settings?
[09:56] <R13ose> One sec
[09:57] <R13ose> https://www.dropbox.com/s/yhossje8hnsssfa/Screenshot%202017-02-11%20045426.png?dl=0
[09:58] <lordievader> Interesting.
[09:59] <lordievader> R13ose: The kernel option 'acpi_backlight=vendor' might help you.
[09:59] <lordievader> See https://askubuntu.com/a/128471
[10:03] <R13ose> I did that but don't want to reboot.
[10:04] <lordievader> You need to reboot for that option to take effect.
[10:05] <R13ose> Fine I will reboot
[10:10] <R13ose> Now keys are working
[10:11] <lordievader> R13ose: Good to hear :)
[10:11] <R13ose> Thanks
[10:12] <lordievader> No problem.
[10:12] <R13ose> There is no way to do kernel things without restarting?
[10:14] <lordievader> Well to do this you'd need to remove the acpi modules, which are most likely in use.
[10:15] <R13ose> To do?
[10:15] <lordievader> Change options of kernel modules.
[10:16] <Fritigern> Does anyone know how long it takes on average for a new version of Plasma to land in the backports repo? I am looking forward to playing with 5.9 (yeah, I know it will be done when it's done, but what's the average?)
[10:21] <R13ose> How do I make booting faster?
[10:22] <lordievader> R13ose: What version of Kubuntu do you run?
[10:23] <R13ose> 16.10
[10:23] <lordievader> R13ose: 'sudo systemd-analyse blame'
[10:25] <R13ose> lordievader: okay
[10:25] <lordievader> That command shows you which service took how long to start.
[10:26] <R13ose> lordievader: yes but how to speed up?
[10:27] <lordievader> R13ose: Go through the list and see if those services are necessary.
[10:27] <lordievader> If they are, find out why they are taking (too) long.
[10:27] <R13ose> Why?
[10:28] <lordievader> R13ose: Because you ask to speed it up?
[10:29] <lordievader> Other approach is, of course, getting faster disks/cpu/ram, etc.
[10:31] <R13ose> lordievader: yes but unsure what to do with the list
[10:32] <lordievader> R13ose: Like I said, go through the services and check if you use them, if not they can be disabled.
[10:32] <R13ose> How to d i s a b l e?
[10:33] <lordievader> R13ose: sudo systemctl disable <service-name>
[10:33] <R13ose> No gui way?
[10:34] <lordievader> R13ose: There might be, don't know.
[10:34] <R13ose> Ok
[11:27] <user|56680> Hola buen dia, quisiera hacer una consulta: cuando inicio el proceso de instalacion de la version 14.04 no termina
[11:27] <user|56680> queda la pantalla de Pronto terminara la instalacion
[11:28] <koffeinfriedhof> !es
[11:28] <ubottu> En la mayoría de los canales de Ubuntu, se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español entre al canal #ubuntu-es; escriba " /join #ubuntu-es " (sin comillas) y presione intro.
[11:28] <user|56680> Ok, thank's
[11:29] <user|56680> Hello, my kubuntu install ver 14.04 not finish, why?
[12:38] <jubo2> I got buggy hw or buggy sw
[12:39] <jubo2> symptoms: system freezes so only cursor moves and then commands are executed in rapid succession
[12:39] <jubo2> and Memtest86+ freezes when run in SMP mode
[12:40] <jubo2> This is the 2nd 2nd hand HW exhibiting this
[12:40] <jubo2> Computers of the poor..
[12:41] <jubo2> fortunately servers that run reliably can be purchased for few moneys / month
[12:45] <jubo2> Hiya BluesKaj
[12:45] <BluesKaj> Hi folks
[12:46] <BluesKaj> hi jubo2
[12:46] <jubo2> How is things BluesKaj?
[12:47] <jubo2> damn.. my English is starting to detoriate from all the polanballism
[12:47] <BluesKaj> good here, jubo2, and you?
[12:47] <jubo2> I'm ok
[12:47] <jubo2> not like good, more a fine
[12:48] <jubo2> BluesKaj: you had to ask a Finn "How's it going?" .. many muricans don't expect what the Finn says
[12:49] <jubo2> not saying you are Murican
[12:49] <BluesKaj> good is just an expression, not to be taken too literally
[12:49] <jubo2> Kaj would imply Swedish origin
[12:49] <BluesKaj> yup
[12:50] <jubo2> but you don't live in Sweden
[12:50] <BluesKaj> but born in Finland
[12:50] <jubo2> I should prlly file for asylum in Sweden
[12:50] <BluesKaj> been in Canada since Iwas 4yrs old
[12:50] <jubo2> Kanada!
[12:50] <jubo2> I love it
[12:51] <jubo2> It's like it was bordering on Murica and Nordics
[12:51] <BluesKaj> well, it's becoming quite "asian" in the big cities
[12:52] <jubo2> Most people would like to be in Canada if they knew how nice it is
