[01:16] hey [01:16] anybody here i want help ? [01:46] new user looks good so far pls acknowledge my connection [01:48] thanks for confirm be [07:10] hello [07:10] someone here? [07:10] Hello [07:10] !ask [07:10] Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [14:11] Hi [14:12] I have some problems with bluetooth, it can't detect any devices - Anybody have some ideas? [14:12] Tried to google with no success [14:18] Hey folks, i've got a question which i posted on ask ubuntu. Anyone over here that has any idea's on how to change account types in ubuntu-mate on a headless server? [14:18] http://askubuntu.com/questions/882919/how-to-set-ubuntu-mate-account-types [14:21] Hello Everyone [14:47] hermes_: the problem is that you dont login properly and your session isn't considered 'active' by policykit. Have you tried X2go instead of using a custom tightvncserver login? [14:48] Btw, to see which groups users-admin considers as 'administrators', fire up a live cd, add a user, and check his groups [15:04] THANK YOU alksisg! Your right! [15:06] Why has tightvnc not the policy for it? Is there a way to fix this? [15:08] I prefer tightvnc, because i can use noVNC to run it inside a website. Tough x2go is wicked, i'm afraid that for the employees at my company x2go client will be a bit to complicated. [15:14] hermes_: it has binaries for windows too [15:15] hermes_: its difficult to properly implement a login, with all the display manager and systemd-logind changes [15:15] I'm guessing that's why tightvnc hasn't implemented it prroperly [15:16] You can use 'loginctl' to debug it and report it to the tightvnc developers [15:17] (if they actually send a login script and you didn't implement it yourself) [15:17] So, could channging a display manager solve it also? [15:18] loginctl - > SESSION UID USER SEAT [15:18] 42 0 root [15:18] c1 108 lightdm seat0 [15:18] 51 1000 arjan [15:19] What does your script do? How did you implement vnc logins? [15:19] Does tightvnc ship a script for that? [15:20] hey [15:21] $ loginctl session-status | grep State [15:21] State: active [15:21] hermes_: you need to see "active" there if you want policykit to give you all the proper rights [15:21] Either that, or modify policykit files so that you give access to non-active sessions as well [15:22] hermes_: the file you're looking for would be /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.accounts.policy [15:23] (if you don't fix the logins, that is, and you want to modify policykit instead [15:24] Thank you again! :) loginctl says state is active. [15:25] hermes_: are you logged in as "arjan" via vnc, and it says that state is active? [15:25] You're not looking at the lightdm session, are you? [15:26] I think i do. How can i check? [15:26] Run: loginctl session-status | nc termbin.com 9999 [15:26] and paste the outupt here [15:27] returns -> http://termbin.com/658g [15:32] hermes_: the session state is indeed active, but you're not running a couple of other things like mate-session [15:34] In any case, it's the login process that need to be debugged, not users-admin... [15:34] * alkisg waves, later... [15:36] Thanx for you help, learned a lot from it! [17:11] Good evening, Im new to HexChat - I have a question about "itunes", anyone have an idea how i can install itunes and get it to work on linux ?? [17:17] here's what i found http://askubuntu.com/questions/414737/how-do-i-install-itunes-on-ubuntu [17:18] hmm [17:19] the answer doesn't actually look that good [17:19] toni, do you know how to open a terminal?

[17:35] $ wine Downloads/theinstaller.exe [17:35] not the latest version though [17:35] doesn't matter much [17:35] i think version 10 of otunes might work they say [17:36] try it out and see [17:36] you see i have an ipad 2 that i would like to sync so that i dont have to do it on the mac [17:37] how does this syncinc work? with bluetooth? an usb cable?
