| floridagram | <Abrerr> It can be for me also. But usually only when I'm slamming through multiple apps quickly. This was a bigger problem at my last job where I used my phone for work. | 01:17 |

| floridagram | <ahoneybun> that last one would be me lol | 11:34 |
| floridagram | <AdamOutler> ESC :q! <-- I know | 11:37 |
| floridagram | <Ivoriesablaze> Only the ! if you don't want to save changes | 12:37 |
| floridagram | <Ivoriesablaze> It could be wq | 12:37 |
| floridagram | <AdamOutler> Only if you made changes you want to keep. The ! Is for I'm sure I don't want to keep the changes. | 12:50 |
| floridagram | <AdamOutler> It's the safest way to exit vi. Vi is a horrible editor. If you can't exit, you probably messed up editing. | 12:53 |
| floridagram | <SivaMachina> Haven't had much issue with Vim | 14:28 |
| floridagram | <KMyers> @SivaMachina, Vim... You monster! | 14:29 |
| floridagram | <KMyers> @AdamOutler, sudo apt-get install nano works best | 14:29 |
| floridagram | <SivaMachina> Syntax highlighting with markdown and word wrapping out of the box or with issue on vim.... Might be easy on Nano didn't have much luck when I tried with word wrapping but it quite possibly user error. | 14:45 |
| floridagram | <Abrerr> Vi bad, vim goooood | 14:56 |
| floridagram | <AdamOutler> @KMyers, sudo *apt* install. apt-get is soooo 15.10 | 16:28 |
| floridagram | <KMyers> I know, just a force of habit | 16:29 |
| floridagram | <AdamOutler> Hehe. Me too. However I've started adapting. | 16:29 |
| floridagram | <KMyers> I am currently drinking Champaign at work | 16:31 |
| maxolasersquad | I worked at a wine and cheese place for a few months. Would sometimes tell me boss, "Sure, I'll take out the trash. I just need to sober up a bit." | 17:09 |
| maxolasersquad | A little known vim tip, to save and quit: ZZ | 17:10 |
| maxolasersquad | Easier than :wq | 17:10 |
| floridagram | <AdamOutler> I'm having a problem with Ubuntu Server. When I'm booting the installation USB, I select HWE (hardware enablement). This allows network access. But once it is installed, I have no way to use network. Ethernet and WiFi are down. To make drivers, I need internet to install make. | 17:14 |
| floridagram | <AdamOutler> Maybe someone can help a Linux n00b? | 17:15 |
| maxolasersquad | Which version of Ubuntu? | 17:18 |
| maxolasersquad | On 16.04 server installation just select English, then "Install Ubuntu Server". Select your keyboard. Give it a hostname and username/password. Select timezon, partitioning. After installation completes reboot. | 17:23 |
| maxolasersquad | There are more questions, like installing additional packages, installing grub. But the defaults should automatically configure the network interfaces. | 17:37 |
| floridagram | <AdamOutler> The defaults leave me with only a LO network connection. | 17:43 |
| floridagram | <AdamOutler> Apparently the HWE kernel used to install Ubuntu, is not used during runtime. | 17:44 |
| floridagram | <AdamOutler> Any idea what HWE changes? Is it used for Secure/verified Boot or simulating some resource? | 17:45 |
| floridagram | <AdamOutler> I've tried using 16.04.02 and 17.04 | 17:46 |
| floridagram | <AdamOutler> Seever 16.04.02 has the option for HWE which enables networking. But after installation, I have none. | 17:46 |
| maxolasersquad | I just ran an install in a VM, but it was 16.04.1. | 17:57 |
| maxolasersquad | I think HWE gives you a newer kernel, but I could easily be wrong on that point. | 17:57 |
| floridagram | <SivaMachina> Speaking of servers has anyone tried Mastadon? | 17:59 |
| maxolasersquad | The twitter alternative? | 18:15 |
| maxolasersquad | "The Ubuntu LTS enablement (also called HWE or Hardware Enablement) stacks provide newer kernel and X support for existing Ubuntu LTS releases." - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack | 18:17 |
| maxolasersquad | The 16.04.2 installer did add the HWE option, but that's neither likely nor helping anything. | 18:22 |
| maxolasersquad | hurting or helping anything. | 18:22 |
| floridagram | <AdamOutler> It helps because I can actually get updates in the installer, but how do I install the HWE package to the disk from the installer or from the recovery mode? | 18:24 |
| maxolasersquad | Without HWE networking doesn't work? | 18:29 |
| maxolasersquad | doesn't work in the installer? | 18:29 |
| maxolasersquad | On the machine you installed it type `sudo apt install linux-generic` then hit your tab key. It should complete to "linux-generic-hwe-16.04" if the hwe packages are installed. Choosing that option from within the installer should have installed that package. | 18:31 |
| maxolasersquad | You can manually donwload that package from http://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/kernel/linux-generic-hwe-16.04-edge | 18:33 |
| maxolasersquad | But it's just a meta package, what you really want is http://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/kernel/linux-image-4.8.0-46-generic | 18:34 |
| floridagram | <AdamOutler> There are recommends that total 500mb. Is there a simpler way? | 18:51 |
| floridagram | <AdamOutler> --install-recommends must be used as a switch with that installation. It's a lot of extra packages. | 18:52 |
| floridagram | <AdamOutler> Networking works in the installer, but not once I've booted. | 18:53 |
| maxolasersquad | There are so many possibilities. Sounds like a SE question. | 18:53 |
| floridagram | <AdamOutler> Server Exchange? | 18:54 |
| floridagram | <AdamOutler> I really just need a way to download all of the recommended packages for the HWE kernel to a thumb drive... Without having to manually download each one, one-by-one, I think. | 18:57 |
| maxolasersquad | Stack Exchange. | 18:58 |
| maxolasersquad | Did you check that The hwe kernel is not already installed? | 18:59 |
| floridagram | <AdamOutler> I will try that. No it is not. I have network in the installer but only when selecting HWE. after booting, no network. | 18:59 |
| floridagram | <AdamOutler> BTW this is Intel NUC mini itx hardware. | 19:00 |
| floridagram | <AdamOutler> Looks like this. https://www.google.com/shopping/product/8935983269331792570?lsf=seller:8438988,rt:2,lsfqd:0&prds=oid:2707067936222825461&q=intel+nuc&hl=en&ei=1rP3WJ-3L-fg0gL2waOACw&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwif-v-emrHTAhVnsFQKHfbgCLAQsIwCCAQ. I have a 500GB ssd and 8Gb ram. | 19:01 |
| maxolasersquad | In the installer there is a place where you can manually select packages to install. You could select the meta package at that point. | 19:01 |
| maxolasersquad | Those NUCs are super cool. We run one at a food coop I volunteer at. | 19:02 |

| floridagram | <Ivoriesablaze> so is keith switching to arch then? | 22:01 |
| floridagram | <KMyers> I wonder what this could be | 22:08 |
| floridagram | <AdamOutler> The installer for Ubuntu server manual selection is not working. It's broken apparently | 22:17 |
| floridagram | <ahoneybun> Nice ∆∆ | 22:19 |
| floridagram | <AdamOutler> Is that one of those old things from Samsung? | 22:20 |
| floridagram | <KMyers> @AdamOutler, Damn.. the fingerprint reader is really badly placed | 22:24 |
| floridagram | <AdamOutler> I helped refine the security on it a few months ago | 22:25 |
| floridagram | <AdamOutler> The design was completed tho. | 22:26 |
| floridagram | <AdamOutler> You likely will be frustrated with Android auto | 22:27 |
| floridagram | <AdamOutler> BTW. Windows Master race! | 22:48 |
| floridagram | <KMyers> Ha | 22:48 |
