[01:03] <Uziah> Anyone in here using nextcloud after the update debacle? Also, anyone know what the reliability is? I only ask here because I saw that Martin Wimpress had a post about using the nextcloud box.
[01:15] <billh> hello anybody home?
[03:14] <edmillion> using inspiron e1705 having wifi connection issues
[03:14] <edmillion> intel pro wireless 3945
[03:15] <edmillion> watched 100s of videos and how tos nothing seems to work any push in the right direction would be awesome
[03:15] <nomic> u can wrap a windows driver using 'ndiswrapper'
[03:16] <nomic> so linux can use windows driver
[03:16] <nomic> usb wirless will work
[03:16] <nomic> e1705 is v old
[03:16] <edmillion> yes it is
[03:17] <nomic> its not just 'mate' .. this place isn't that populated
[03:17] <nomic> you get more support on #ubuntu or ubuntu forums (v busy)
[03:18] <edmillion> can i get a  windows driver through terminal
[03:18] <nomic> if you have a usb wireless adaptor, mate (or antyhing)
[03:18] <nomic> will pick up your wireless
[03:18] <nomic> mebbe easier

[03:18] <edmillion> i cant get wireless on that as well
[03:18] <edmillion> i know they are both old
[03:18] <nomic> i dunno .. i just said ndiswrapper enables use of windows drivers
[03:19] <nomic> get something like netgear wsg511 key
[03:19] <nomic> works with anything
[03:19] <edmillion> thanks

[09:25] <pepe__> i have a problem with update
[09:29] <pepe__> https://pastebin.com/PCtHVz0D
[09:30] <pepe__> what going on with this error to update?
[09:37] <alkisg> Seems like your server is currently updating, try later or try with the main server
[09:39] <pepe__> I am worried
[09:39] <pepe__> I read that sha1 is not safe
[09:40] <pepe__> Why people keep using sha1 ?
[09:41] <alkisg> It's not about security there
[09:41] <alkisg> It's about checksum, if they're downloaded OK
[09:41] <alkisg> The .deb packages are signed by their authors, that's where security is
[09:41] <pepe__> this checksum sha1 isn't safe
[09:42] <alkisg> 1+2+3=6. That's a checksum
[09:42] <alkisg> It's not about security
[09:42] <alkisg> It's about verifying that your internet connection didn't break the download
[09:42] <pepe__> https://youtu.be/HguaJV7tGtU
[09:43] <alkisg> Maybe you don't know the difference between signatures and checksums?
[09:43] <alkisg> Google those 2 words...
[09:44] <alkisg> sha1 can be used for signatures where it's not secure
[09:44] <alkisg> Checksums can be calculated with crc32, with md5, with sha... whatever,
[09:44] <alkisg> and there can be collisions, sure; but the signatures in the .debs are not sha1, they're sha512
[09:44] <alkisg> That's where security is, not on the checksum
[09:47] <marina> MMM
[09:47] <pepe__> how can i fix the update?
[09:48] <alkisg> It's a server issue, you can report it to your country ubuntu servers, or just wait for their update to complete
[09:49] <pepe__> any way that can i do ,to change the country server?
[09:49] <marina> still sitting in the classroom........
[09:49] <marina> hi
[09:59] <pepe__> i found a tutorial "how change the mirrirs country server"
[09:59] <pepe__> i gonna try
[09:59] <pepe__> *mirrors
[10:09] <pepe__> i have changed the mirror ,fixed it
[10:09] <pepe__> I do not trust the mirrors of my country.
[10:11] <pepe__> thanks ,bye

[15:48] <constantinos> hello
[17:11] <caligula2000> somebody know how to lock mate-screensaver from an udev rule
[17:12] <caligula2000> sudo -H -u <user> mate-screensaver-command --lock doesn't any longer work on 17.04
[17:14] <caligula2000> also no success with "dbus-send --type=method_call --dest=org.mate.ScreenSaver /org/mate/ScreenSaver org.mate.ScreenSaver.Lock"
[17:39] <mate|55340> sup
[17:54] <alkisg> caligula2000: services aren't supposed to show GUI items inside the session
[17:54] <alkisg> You could e.g. make a dbus service, and have a user-side process listen to events from that
[17:55] <alkisg> That's why mate-screensaver runs as the user and not as root...
