mate|29776hello everyone! I have recently switched from raspbian to ubuntu mate on my rpi3. I have got alot of stuff set up and running the way i want but i wont let me update! it says i dont have enough space on my boot partion. How can i resize it? it fails to install gparted - says missing dependencies.00:31
greenmanspiritHey all, I just installed my first snap and I have a question. If ubuntu mate would move to being snap based, would that mean that all packages would live in /snap and the current file system standard will be deprecated?02:10
Astro7467greenmanspirit: I think not. they will coexist, but I suspect we will see a focus on  deb pkgs for OS/Performance/Integration (eg services & server) and snaps for user land apps (eg LibreOffice)02:58
greenmanspiritAstro7467, thanks for the response. I have so many scripts that depend on the current structure that I was curious.02:59
Astro7467Canonical's stated position is that many packages will continue to co-exist in both environments as pkgs and snaps to meet different use cases03:00
greenmanspiritcool03:01
greenmanspiritThat is what I was hoping for.03:01

maxstirner_Hi...can anyone help me?08:01
alkisgNot if you don't wait we can't...08:15
mateloverdoes anyone got problems?12:35
alkisgLike, job and family issues? :D12:36
alkisg!ask | echo matelover:12:36
ubottuecho matelover:: 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 !patience12:36
SuperEngineeralkisg: that's not fair, matelover is obviously an out of work phscyiatrist12:37
alkisgAaah makes sense now! :D12:38
SuperEngineer;-)12:38
Astro7467I have 99 problems, but MATE ain't one.12:45
gibi92I have problem to keep system clock on a raspberry pi2. Is it a MATE problem ?12:48
SuperEngineerAstro7467: make yourself comfortable,lay on this couch if you want... now tell me about problem number 1.  [but'll cost you a mere £200/hour]12:49
SuperEngineer...& by the time we've got to problem number 99... I'm rich, you're poor and you say you then have 100 problems :-)12:51
SuperEngineergibi92: I suspect not12:52
gibi92@SuperEngineer Even if i use ubuntu-mate ?12:56
alkisggibi92: pi doesn't have a cmos to store the date to12:56
SuperEngineerMy logic: [disclaimer, I don't have any pi] but...I'm sure it would have been asked a few times before if it was a UM problem.12:57
alkisgThere's a fake-cmos package that uses the disk to store the last date12:58
alkisgThat's the best that debian and ubuntu can do12:58
SuperEngineer,,,and how does the pi remeber the time without a powered cmos?  I''m guessing it tries to grab time from a time server... is one set?12:59
gibi92alkisg: yes, but i search for software solution12:59
alkisgfake-cmos is the software solution12:59
alkisgSorry, wrong name, I meant: http://packages.ubuntu.com/fake-hwclock13:01
alkisgDo you have that package installed?13:01
gibi92alksig: yes13:01
alkisgubuntu-mate rpi, like normal ubuntu-mate, uses ntpd too of course, so it syncs after boot13:01
alkisgBut while booting, that's the best you can do13:01
alkisgRead this too if you want: http://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/4370/where-does-the-raspberry-pi-get-the-time-from13:02
gibi92alksig: yesterday i test htpdate. it synchronise time over the web13:02
alkisgntpdate is deprecated13:02
alkisgntpd is what is preinstalled now13:02
alkisgAll ubuntus have ntpd preinstalled13:03
gibi92alksig:yes i have ntpd and i remove ntpdate13:03
alkisgAlso, use tab to autocomplete irc nicknames, to get them right13:03
gibi92alkisg, ok13:03
gibi92alksig, Thank you for this link. I read a lot about it, but I have not seen that one. I read it and I come back13:12

usuariobuenas, he estado trasteando con los ajustes de los paneles y ya no me salen las ventanas de las aplicaciones que tengo abiertas a la izquierda del panel inferior. En su lugar, ahora me aparecen iconos de las aplicaciones en el panel inferior. Cómo puedo volver a la situación inicial? Gracias16:39
