[01:11] <xubuntu97w> I'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. An
[10:35] <adrian_1908> hey, what do you guys use to remember entered SSH password for the current user (Desktop) session?
[10:43] <flocculant> adrian_1908: whatever it is that says 'Do you want this password remembered?' when I login to something with ssh password - keyring I assume
[10:48] <adrian_1908> flocculant: 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_1908> I tried "SSH Key Agent" but that alone doesn't seem to cut it. I might need to run additional services.
[10:54] <flocculant> adrian_1908: well - I clean installed - copied backed up .ssh to new install - and it just worked - not sure what service it was
[10:55] <adrian_1908> flocculant: ok, thanks for the info. Maybe I messed up something on my side.
[10:56] <krytarik> adrian_1908: Also see the note here though: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GNOME/Keyring#SSH_keys
[10:57] <adrian_1908> thanks
[12:05] <dmanyep> good 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 appreciated
[14:22] <devilray> dmanyep:  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?
[14:28] <diogenes_> into mothercoard
[14:28] <diogenes_> board*
[14:28] <devilray> Do any other devices work w/ the USB ports?
[14:28] <devilray> Like USB drives?
[14:30] <devilray> assuming xubuntu 16.10? or another?
[14:32] <devilray> Does keyboard work in the BIOS?
[14:35] <devilray> diogenes_:  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-bios
[14:42] <diogenes_> I don't talk to devil
[14:42] <dmanyep> yes
[14:42] <dmanyep> the keyboard does work in the bios
[14:42] <dmanyep> plugging into the back of tower usb ports
[14:43] <dmanyep> one difference between this new computer and old, there are the slots for keyboard and mouse (not usb slots)
[14:43] <dmanyep> so i wonder if i get an adapter for the usb if it will work then?
[14:43] <dmanyep> but i pulled out this old dell keyboard, basic crap. it works fine
[14:50] <devilray> diogenes_:  Sorry. :/
[14:50] <devilray> dmanyep:  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-bios
[14:52] <dmanyep> yeah, i checked it out.  in the middle of writing code.  I'll reboot and enter bios settings a bit later
[14:52] <dmanyep> would be the bomb if it fixes the problem
[14:54] <devilray> good luck!
[14:54] <dmanyep> thanks for your help
[15:22] <flocculant> dmanyep: 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/
[15:23] <flocculant> also - did keyboard/webcam work on installing - or was this an old installation - just transplanted into new hardware?
[15:31] <dmanyep> how do i check my version again?
[15:31] <dmanyep> i'm new linux btw
[15:33] <dmanyep> nm, that was a quick google search
[15:33] <dmanyep> i'm running 16.04.2 LTS
[15:33] <dmanyep> that's what it says when i type: lsb_release -a
[15:34] <dmanyep> i'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?"
[15:35] <flocculant> dmanyep: was it a clean install? did the keyboard work when you installed xubuntu?
[15:35] <dmanyep> yes
[15:36] <flocculant> did the webcam?
[15:36] <dmanyep> nah, i had to download gucview
[15:36] <dmanyep> so i downloaded cheese this time around
[15:37] <dmanyep> so when i run cheese, the camera turns on and works
[15:37] <dmanyep> but it used towork in google hangouts, now it doesn't
[15:37] <dmanyep> wait, nm
[15:38] <dmanyep> when I type cheese in the terminal, it says "No device found"
[15:45] <flocculant> dmanyep: and what is this corsair keyboard? did it work before - if so what xubuntu version did it work with?
[15:47] <dmanyep> same xubuntu version
[15:48] <flocculant> ok - so I'd check what devilray was talking about before doing more
[15:48] <dmanyep> it's the Corsair Gaming K70 LUX Keyboard
[15:48] <dmanyep> ok, the odd thing is
[15:48] <flocculant> I assume you didin't need to install anything before to make it work then
[15:48] <dmanyep> that's correct
[15:48] <dmanyep> it just worked
[15:49] <dmanyep> the odd thing is, before I gave up trying to figure it out on my own, the corsair keyboard would work sometimes
[15:49] <flocculant> everything I've read talks about installing ckb
[15:51] <dmanyep> ok, so you think i should try what devilray suggested first and then try installing ckb?
[15:52] <flocculant> yea
[15:52] <dmanyep> kk
[15:52] <dmanyep> thanks for your help flocculant
