[10:33] <Lindo> ahoy
[10:34] <Lindo> So iv got a question i suspect i could google.
[10:35] <Lindo> is ubuntu mate the same as ubuntu, in termes of getting it to work_
[10:35] <Lindo> like the same 'base' but different packaging
[12:13] <alkisg> Lindo: ubuntu, lubuntu, kubuntu, xubuntu, ubuntu-mate etc all have the same base and packaging, and the difference is the desktop environment, like, the menu, the windows, a few tools etc
[12:14] <Lindo> thats good to know, i recon ubuntu is one of the big communities
[12:15] <alkisg> ubuntu is the biggest of them, yes. Ubuntu-mate is for more tranditional users, more lightweight etc
[12:15] <Lindo> completly new to this linux thing, so i need all the help i can get to get set up with cs>go and just functionality
[12:15] <alkisg> If you want games, better to use windows
[12:15] <Lindo> yeah, thats what i got from reading a bit, that this was a more lightweight system, wich i guess i want for gaming performance
[12:15] <alkisg> It's possible to set up some games in linux, but that comes after you like it for the rest of the stuff
[12:16] <Lindo> hehe
[12:16] <alkisg> gaming performance isn't very related to the desktop environment
[12:16] <Lindo> yeah, but i dont really have a windows license, and now my win7 is fucking up all sorts of ways
[12:16] <Lindo> not licensed this that blah blah warnings all over
[12:16] <alkisg> OK
[12:18] <Lindo> I recon il install this mate thing, it looks nice enough for me, i guess its just a matter of getting used to this new, for me completly ilogical filing system and such
[12:19] <alkisg> It has an "advanced menu" in the settings that looks a bit like the windows xp menu
[12:20] <Lindo> the \controll center\_
[12:20] <Lindo> ?
[12:21] <alkisg> system > preferences > appearance > mate tweak
[12:22] <Lindo> uh, i liked this 'advanced' menu checkbox
[12:23] <Lindo> meh, i got to vacume ;{
[13:00] <Lindo> ay ayy
[13:00] <alkisg> ya yaa
[13:00] <Lindo> ana, so you say linux isnt good for gaming preformance
[13:00] <Lindo> how bad is it? i really only play CS:GO, and i know it atleast starts
[13:01] <alkisg> !winehq
[13:01] <alkisg> See there for each game you care about
[13:10] <lindo> ayy so i was in the middle of the install sorry
[13:11] <lindo> uhm, anywhoo, i encountered my first problem on the reboot. it wanted an encryption password or somthing on the 'startup' window, befor the user interface with mice
[13:11] <lindo> well, the keyboard didnt work
[13:12] <lindo> allso, i need to start it with 'nomodeset' from the thumb drive, in order for my computer not to go black, and starting up and shutting down all the usb ports over and over again
[13:12] <lindo> >D
[13:33] <shafaat> Hi. Anyone facing issues with Software Boutique?
[13:34] <shafaat> I am new to UbuntuMate and I am not able to install any software from Welcome -> Software Boutique
[13:35] <shafaat> It gives: Package doesnot exist error
[13:35] <shafaat> for any software
[13:35]  * alkisg always does `sudo apt install gnome-software` and doesn't use boutique...
[13:36] <shafaat> let me try it from Mate Terminal.
[13:45] <shafaat>  sudo apt-get update
[13:46] <shafaat> after running this, software boutique started working
[13:46] <shafaat> Thanks @alkisg
[13:46] <alkisg> Eh, np
[13:46] <alkisg> :)

[19:34] <Inops> Hi all. I've just recently installed 16.04. I'm having problem with Qt programs. Their menu dropdowns. when on my secondary monitor, popup a good distance down from the menu buttom (e.g. 'File'). This seems to be an example of this bug: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-29278 (see this for an example). Anyone aware of how to fix this?
