xubuntu97wI'm new to Linux and having a problem with xubuntu installation of 16.04. I started an installation on my notebook and all seemed well until I rebooted. Though I wrote down the volume and user password, the user password did not work. So I decided to do another clean install. I reinserted the disk and launched the installer. Install failed when trying to overwrite the LVM volume with message:  volume group name already in use. An01:11

adrian_1908hey, what do you guys use to remember entered SSH password for the current user (Desktop) session?10:35
flocculantadrian_1908: whatever it is that says 'Do you want this password remembered?' when I login to something with ssh password - keyring I assume10:43
adrian_1908flocculant: do you know which startup service that is (presumably it's among those shipping with Xubuntu), or could you take a look?10:48
adrian_1908I tried "SSH Key Agent" but that alone doesn't seem to cut it. I might need to run additional services.10:48
flocculantadrian_1908: well - I clean installed - copied backed up .ssh to new install - and it just worked - not sure what service it was10:54
adrian_1908flocculant: ok, thanks for the info. Maybe I messed up something on my side.10:55
krytarikadrian_1908: Also see the note here though: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GNOME/Keyring#SSH_keys10:56
adrian_1908thanks10:57
dmanyepgood morning.  I am having two problems.  Just  upgraded my machine to an i7-7770 on a Gigabyte GA-Z270XP-SLI motherboard.  Since upgrading, my Corsair keyboard and my logitech web cam don't work.  any help appreciated12:05
devilraydmanyep:  So, new motherboard and you're plugging the devices into the onboard USB ports?  Or the front USB ports that are connected to the case?14:22
diogenes_into mothercoard14:28
diogenes_board*14:28
devilrayDo any other devices work w/ the USB ports?14:28
devilrayLike USB drives?14:28
devilrayassuming xubuntu 16.10? or another?14:30
devilrayDoes keyboard work in the BIOS?14:32
devilraydiogenes_:  This link has a discussion that refers to a BIOS setting that fixed a similar problem. Can you check it out? https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/72625/why-is-usb-not-working-in-linux-when-it-works-in-uefi-bios14:35
diogenes_I don't talk to devil14:42
dmanyepyes14:42
dmanyepthe keyboard does work in the bios14:42
dmanyepplugging into the back of tower usb ports14:42
dmanyepone difference between this new computer and old, there are the slots for keyboard and mouse (not usb slots)14:43
dmanyepso i wonder if i get an adapter for the usb if it will work then?14:43
dmanyepbut i pulled out this old dell keyboard, basic crap. it works fine14:43
devilraydiogenes_:  Sorry. :/14:50
devilraydmanyep:  Did you look at that setting on that link? It looks like a Gigabye specific issue. https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/72625/why-is-usb-not-working-in-linux-when-it-works-in-uefi-bios14:50
dmanyepyeah, i checked it out.  in the middle of writing code.  I'll reboot and enter bios settings a bit later14:52
dmanyepwould be the bomb if it fixes the problem14:52
devilraygood luck!14:54
dmanyepthanks for your help14:54
flocculantdmanyep: you don't say what version of xubuntu - but it might be worth checking out latest daily http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/daily-live/current/15:22
flocculantalso - did keyboard/webcam work on installing - or was this an old installation - just transplanted into new hardware?15:23
dmanyephow do i check my version again?15:31
dmanyepi'm new linux btw15:31
dmanyepnm, that was a quick google search15:33
dmanyepi'm running 16.04.2 LTS15:33
dmanyepthat's what it says when i type: lsb_release -a15:33
dmanyepi'm not sure what you're asking me here - "also - did keyboard/webcam work on installing - or was this an old installation - just transplanted into new hardware?"15:34
flocculantdmanyep: was it a clean install? did the keyboard work when you installed xubuntu?15:35
dmanyepyes15:35
flocculantdid the webcam?15:36
dmanyepnah, i had to download gucview15:36
dmanyepso i downloaded cheese this time around15:36
dmanyepso when i run cheese, the camera turns on and works15:37
dmanyepbut it used towork in google hangouts, now it doesn't15:37
dmanyepwait, nm15:37
dmanyepwhen I type cheese in the terminal, it says "No device found"15:38
flocculantdmanyep: and what is this corsair keyboard? did it work before - if so what xubuntu version did it work with?15:45
dmanyepsame xubuntu version15:47
flocculantok - so I'd check what devilray was talking about before doing more15:48
dmanyepit's the Corsair Gaming K70 LUX Keyboard15:48
dmanyepok, the odd thing is15:48
flocculantI assume you didin't need to install anything before to make it work then15:48
dmanyepthat's correct15:48
dmanyepit just worked15:48
dmanyepthe odd thing is, before I gave up trying to figure it out on my own, the corsair keyboard would work sometimes15:49
flocculanteverything I've read talks about installing ckb15:49
dmanyepok, so you think i should try what devilray suggested first and then try installing ckb?15:51
flocculantyea15:52
