Spass | I have a small issue with restoring folders from trash in Thunar, I suppose it's a known issue? | 09:13 |
---|---|---|
Spass | folder gets restored, but I get a message "Items in the trash may not be modified." | 09:14 |
Spass | and I must "skip it" | 09:14 |
Spass | I'm on 17.04, but same is on 16.04 in VirtualBox | 09:15 |
Spass | should be easy to reproduce, just create 'test' folder, make a 'file.txt' within that folder, move 'test' folder to trash, try to restore it | 09:17 |
Spass | can someone confirm? | 09:40 |
akxwi-dave | spass I can confirm here on 17.04 | 10:10 |
akxwi-dave | However if i yes to all, the are still restored | 10:12 |
Spass | akxwi-dave: Yes, folder is still restored, but that message is confusing and unnecessary IMHO | 10:14 |
Spass | makes you think "something went wrong" | 10:14 |
akxwi-dave | true, it does make you think that its not going to restore.. | 10:15 |
akxwi-dave | I would file it as a bug and then its up to the developer too decide if to change the wording | 10:15 |
akxwi-dave | if you do file it, give me the number on LP and I'll confirm | 10:17 |
Spass | I didn't file it yet | 10:19 |
Spass | I don't thing that window is needed at all, it's not just a wording of a message http://i.imgur.com/RSI1TJi.png | 10:23 |
Spass | Typical user may think - that's my trash and I just want to restore a folder from it, shouldn't be a problem | 10:24 |
Spass | plus, default focus is on 'Cancel' button and when you click it, the folder stays in the trash AND is restored, very confusing | 10:25 |
flocculant | Spass: please report that on launchpad, ubuntu-bug thunar | 11:17 |
flocculant | I can't - non-standard thunar, but I've done the xfce report and will link launchpad to it later | 11:18 |
Spass | flocculant: ok, will do | 11:18 |
Spass | flocculant: but wait, I use Thunar from xubuntu-staging too, so probably Apport won't work | 12:11 |
thunder011 | hi i am new to xubuntu an i want to upgrade my system to its latest verson with terminal so how can i do it??:):):) | 17:50 |
thunder011 | please any one help me ??? | 17:51 |
encomjones | what version are you running right now | 17:52 |
thunder011 | i dont know how to find it?? | 17:54 |
encomjones | try a cat /etc/os-release in a terminal | 17:56 |
thunder011 | my saftware center is also not working | 17:56 |
encomjones | well a cat /etc/os-release in a terminal will give you the info of what version you are running | 17:57 |
thunder011 | i tried apt-get update with root | 17:57 |
thunder011 | VERSION="16.04.1 LTS (Xenial Xerus)" | 17:58 |
drc | thunder011: google gave me this as the first hit to "xubuntu 17.04 upgrade via terminal" http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2017/04/how-to-upgrade-to-ubuntu-17-04 | 18:01 |
thunder011 | ok thanks | 18:02 |
thunder011 | :):):) | 18:02 |
drc | Enjoy! | 18:02 |
flocculant | thunder011: you'll need to update more than once to reach latest - 16.04 > 16.10 > 17.04 | 18:04 |
thunder011 | ok tx | 18:05 |
flocculant | and then every 9 months a new one releases | 18:06 |
encomjones | thunder011: it would be much cleaner and quicker to do a fresh install unless it is not possible for you | 18:06 |
thunder011 | yeah | 18:06 |
* drc wanted to say that but decided not to :) | 18:07 | |
flocculant | thunder011: all that aside - you'll likely need to fix apt first if things aren't workiing properly there eg software center and apt update | 18:07 |
thunder011 | okay | 18:08 |
drc | If he cleanly re-installs, he shouldn't have to "fix apt", should he? | 18:10 |
encomjones | no not for a clean install | 18:10 |
thunder011 | sorry i am new to linux so i cant understade it well so i desided to download latest xubuntu distro insted | 18:11 |
thunder011 | sorry for my english | 18:12 |
Spass | thunder011: remember to backup your files from current system, if you need to :) | 18:13 |
thunder011 | yeah | 18:13 |
thunder011 | can you tell me does all linux distro use same kernal ?? | 18:14 |
encomjones | not all no | 18:15 |
thunder011 | i mean they modify kernal as per thier need but the main kernal they use is same | 18:17 |
drc | no :) | 18:18 |
drc | it's...complicated.... | 18:18 |
thunder011 | ??? | 18:18 |
drc | see https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/226230/how-to-find-out-what-distros-are-using-particular-linux-version for what distro use what kernel (spoiler: they send you to distrowatch) | 18:19 |
thunder011 | ok so is this possible to use new kernal of xubuntu to old xubuntu os ? | 18:20 |
Spass | you mean newest kernel possible on 16.04 for example? without needing to upgrading it to 17.04? | 18:21 |
thunder011 | yes | 18:21 |
thunder011 | https://askubuntu.com/questions/172927/do-all-linux-distros-use-the-same-kernel | 18:22 |
Spass | but is there a reason you need that newest kernel on your system? | 18:22 |
thunder011 | http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/5-reasons-update-kernel-linux/ | 18:24 |
diogenes_ | thunder011, here is a script that upgrades your kernel to the latest stable, but it's not recommended! https://paste.opensuse.org/56809878 | 18:24 |
drc | thunder011: Let's look at it this way: if you buy a MG sports car and know what you are doing you can put a Astin-Martin engine in it...but why? The MG was designed to work with the parts it comes with. | 18:24 |
* Spass is driving MG ZT ;) | 18:25 | |
drc | If you don't know what you're doing you'll only end up with a broken MG :( | 18:25 |
thunder011 | ok | 18:27 |
Spass | thunder011: about that article 1) Security Fixes - you'll get security fixes in Xubuntu LTS, don't worry 2) Stability Improvements - is your 16.04 not stable? 3) Stability Improvements - what hardware doesn't wok on your 16.04 4) Increased Speed - well, maybe :) | 18:27 |
Spass | * 3) Updated Drivers | 18:28 |
drc | yeah, what Spass said. | 18:28 |
flocculant | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack | 18:28 |
Spass | thunder011: I'm not saying you shouldn't do it, I'm just saying maybe you don't have to | 18:30 |
thunder011 | sorry there was some problem with my net coonection | 18:40 |
flocculant | thunder011: so what exactly are you doing? reinstalling from newest iso? | 18:46 |
thunder011 | okay let me ask one more silly question is it possible to use kernal of diifernt os with another linux os i mean kali linux kernel with ubuntu distro ????:'( | 18:46 |
flocculant | if you want to start doing that - install kali | 18:47 |
thunder011 | i tried to find answer on google but i cant find any answer | 18:47 |
flocculant | you are new - you're not really sure what you're doing here, so doing something like that is probably not a good idea at the moment | 18:47 |
thunder011 | please dont get furious :-D:-D:-D | 18:47 |
flocculant | you certainly won't get support for that here | 18:47 |
thunder011 | nope i just want to know what happenes when i create fusion of different os with some modifications | 18:49 |
flocculant | breakage often | 18:49 |
drc | thunder011: is this your main/only computer? If yes they don't play with it...get another (cheap) one to play with. If "no"...have fun :) | 18:49 |
thunder011 | :):):) | 18:50 |
thunder011 | ???? what is hyperspace or hypervisor | 18:59 |
thunder011 | https://www.quora.com/Is-it-possible-to-run-multiple-OSs-at-the-same-time-on-a-single-PC-without-using-any-VM-or-third-party-tool# | 19:01 |
mumptai | is there a known issue with cryptsetup failing after a recent update on a 14.04 installation? | 20:49 |
