[12:51] <qswz> guys, whether you use sublime text or not, I'd be glad if you upvote https://github.com/SublimeTextIssues/Core/issues/1361, they don't care enough about linux users
[23:07] <DJAnonimo> Hello, anyone here?
[23:08] <wxl> yes but
[23:08] <wxl> !ask
[23:08] <wxl> \:)
[23:08] <DJAnonimo> well I have a problem. I want to run 16 bit colordepth
[23:08] <DJAnonimo> but when I create a config file with 16 bit color depth the OS do not boot
[23:08] <wxl> phew that's a request i've never encountered before
[23:08] <DJAnonimo> it boot just in recovery mode.
[23:08] <wxl> what file?
[23:09] <DJAnonimo> etc/X11/xorg.conf
[23:09] <wxl> let's see a paste of it
[23:09] <DJAnonimo> https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1238639
[23:09] <DJAnonimo> from here
[23:10] <wxl> going into recovery seems strange
[23:10] <wxl> i could expect it failing to boot x, but not going into grub recovery
[23:10] <wxl> have you looked in the logs?
[23:10] <DJAnonimo> I go with press ESC
[23:10] <wxl> huh?
[23:11] <DJAnonimo> yes with a loader
[23:11] <DJAnonimo> with xwininfo -root | grep Depth
[23:11] <DJAnonimo> I get 16 bit result on recovery mode
[23:11] <wxl> let's clearly define "recovery mode"
[23:11] <DJAnonimo> I hope its not a fake
[23:11] <DJAnonimo> before lubuntu is booting I do ESC key
[23:12] <DJAnonimo> and then set kernel in Recovery mode
[23:12] <wxl> why do you do that?
[23:12] <DJAnonimo> because it do not boot in normal mode
[23:12] <wxl> what exactly happens?
[23:12] <DJAnonimo> when xorg.conf is configured on 16 bit mode
[23:13] <DJAnonimo> stops on black screen with: /dev/sda1: clean 2244728/7684096 files, bla bla bla blocks
[23:14] <wxl> ok, that's not that it fails to boot
[23:14] <wxl> but more likely that x fails to handle your configuration
[23:14] <DJAnonimo> yea
[23:14] <DJAnonimo> something like this :)
[23:14] <wxl> you can grep for EE (error) in /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[23:14] <DJAnonimo> the question is... why :D
[23:15] <wxl> in fact you can get to it from the blank screen
[23:15] <DJAnonimo> after a failure or now?
[23:15] <wxl> CTRL-ALT-F7
[23:15] <wxl> sorry
[23:15] <wxl> that's how to get back :)
[23:15] <wxl> CTRL-ALT-F1
[23:15] <wxl> ugh i'm tired
[23:15] <wxl> not F at all
[23:15] <wxl> no i was right
[23:15] <wxl> sorry it's like an automatic thing
[23:15] <wxl> physical memory works, but not mental memory :)
[23:15] <DJAnonimo> let me powerup my laptop and set to 16 bit
[23:16] <wxl> it's MOST LIKELY a syntax error
[23:22] <DJAnonimo> screenshot here: https://ibb.co/k3jRbQ
[23:25] <DJAnonimo> wxl still here?
[23:25] <wxl> that's the only example of an error?
[23:25] <DJAnonimo> I can upload you the whole log file...
[23:25] <DJAnonimo> thats inside Xorg.0.log
[23:25] <wxl> that would make the most sense
[23:27] <DJAnonimo> https://pastebin.com/QdewYXUQ
[23:28] <wxl> ok interesting. let me see the whole of the configuration file
[23:37] <DJAnonimo> when trying to run "X -configure"  https://ibb.co/dvW6bQ
[23:38] <wxl> still haven't seen the config file
[23:39] <DJAnonimo> I just tried creating it... with no luck as you can see in the screen shot
[23:40] <DJAnonimo> with just Screen section with color depth it fails...
[23:40] <DJAnonimo> so the questio is... how to create a proper config file
[23:40] <wxl> all you have to do is copy /etc/X11/Xorg.conf and paste it
[23:41] <DJAnonimo> I tried with the screen section line
[23:41] <DJAnonimo> Section "Screen"
[23:41] <DJAnonimo> 	Identifier	"Default Screen"
[23:41] <DJAnonimo> 	Monitor		"Configured Monitor"
[23:41] <DJAnonimo> 	Device		"Configured Video Device"
[23:41] <DJAnonimo>         DefaultDepth    16
[23:41] <DJAnonimo> EndSection
[23:42] <DJAnonimo> config file is https://pastebin.com/S81vph9S
[23:47] <DJAnonimo> wxl: any idea?
