| viper123_ | hey | 00:16 |
| viper123_ | how do i make ubuntu make work? with the sound as well | 00:17 |
| viper123_ | any1 there | 00:19 |
| Oderus | i'm here but i am not sure i understand the question | 00:20 |
| viper123_ | hey thank u for the respond | 00:22 |
| viper123_ | well basically, i am using an ubuntu, operating system | 00:22 |
| viper123_ | i wish to make it work even with the sound (sound is currently unwork) | 00:22 |
| viper123_ | how shall i proceed ? | 00:23 |
| Oderus | first thing i would do is to check the driver manager | 00:23 |
| Oderus | once you start the driver manager it will check if it has a good driver for you that isnt installed | 00:23 |
| viper123_ | how do i start driver manager please oderus | 00:24 |
| Oderus | it should be in your menus somewhere, i am using Kubuntu so its a bit different than Ubuntu, | 00:24 |
| sidetracking | viper123_ what is ur linux version | 00:25 |
| viper123_ | if u am help me, to the fullest extent with working sound, i will gladly easily paypal u $6 | 00:25 |
| viper123_ | what menus | 00:25 |
| Oderus | ohhhh its not about the money just about the help :) | 00:25 |
| viper123_ | sidetracking i am using ubuntu version something buddy | 00:25 |
| sidetracking | ah | 00:25 |
| viper123_ | i dont know how to check, please forgive | 00:25 |
| sidetracking | i see i see | 00:25 |
| viper123_ | oderus | 00:26 |
| viper123_ | ok but u are helping me yes? | 00:26 |
| Oderus | if you click the menu and type "about" and click there, it should tell you | 00:26 |
| Oderus | i will try | 00:26 |
| Oderus | might be better off asking in #ubuntu as well, theres a lot more responsive people there. | 00:27 |
| viper123_ | yes i know that but i am using a combinaton of other linux :) | 00:28 |
| Oderus | ah ok. well that would be my first thing, to check the drivers. | 00:29 |
| Oderus | after that i would check the volumes and etc | 00:29 |
| Oderus | if still nothing then i would go to shell, type lspci, find my soundcard, then google the appropriate driver | 00:30 |
| Oderus | hi! i'm on day 2 of trying to figure out how to change these specific icons that i have outlined in red in the attached screenshot. I have changed a lot of icons but still no luck. Anyone happen to know the location of these files so i can change them? Even the location of the config file that points to them would help. Thanks in advance. http://pasteboard.co/5b2bVqis7.png | 01:16 |
| valorie | Oderus: those are stock Breeze icons, afaik | 01:17 |
| valorie | change your theme to something else, and they will change | 01:17 |
| valorie | I like breeze, so I never tried | 01:18 |
| valorie | you seem to be crossposting, which is rather annoying | 01:19 |
| Oderus | yes that does work, even though i have gone through all the files. I'm trying to replace them with specific ones. I've replaced every instance of them in breeze. | 01:19 |
| Oderus | ok i won't post here again if i've posted there. | 01:20 |

| tiwake | hey, I just did a "network install" (PXE) of kubuntu and when I boot it, just getting a black screen with some green dots across the top with my nvidia 970 | 01:49 |
| tiwake | not really sure what to do... | 01:49 |
| tiwake | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1613158 is really all that I found | 01:49 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1613158 in linux (Ubuntu) "Booting with Nvidia GTX 970 hangs with an orange/corrupt screen in kernels 4.8-4.11 (but works with 4.4.0)" [High,Confirmed] | 01:49 |
| valorie | green dots! | 01:51 |
| valorie | so you can't get to a console? | 01:51 |
| tiwake | <ctrl><alt><F1> does nothing visibly | 01:52 |
| tiwake | unless there is another way | 01:52 |
| valorie | well, try a few more | 01:52 |
| valorie | f2, 3, etc | 01:52 |
| valorie | at least if you can get into a console, you can try `sudo apt install -f` | 01:53 |
| valorie | to see if something is missing | 01:53 |
| valorie | and/or `sudo dpkg --configure -a` if you think it is misconfiguration | 01:54 |
| valorie | or install an older kernel | 01:54 |
| tiwake_ | erp | 01:55 |
| tiwake_ | pulled the wired connection from my laptop and forgot that I had wireless off | 01:55 |
| tiwake_ | so I could PXE install kubuntu :3 | 01:56 |
| valorie | oops | 01:56 |
| tiwake_ | anyway, yeah, <ctrl><alt>F1-F5 do nothing | 01:56 |
| valorie | boo | 01:56 |
| valorie | well | 01:57 |
| valorie | I've never done such an install | 01:57 |
| valorie | some reason you wanted to do that rather than just install from an iso? | 01:57 |
| tiwake_ | PXE install is how I've installed the last... iunno... 5 or 6 or more? versions of linux | 01:57 |
| tiwake_ | cause its the easiest | 01:58 |
| valorie | until today | 01:58 |
| tiwake_ | well | 01:58 |
| valorie | I usually just upgrade | 01:58 |
| valorie | but otherwise, fresh ISO | 01:58 |
| tiwake_ | I did try the USB boot thing | 01:58 |
| valorie | and? | 01:58 |
| tiwake_ | but it threw some errors or something | 01:58 |
| valorie | which ISO? | 01:59 |
| tiwake_ | kubuntu 7.04 64bit | 01:59 |
| valorie | 17.04 I assume | 01:59 |
| tiwake_ | yeah, that | 01:59 |
| valorie | perhaps try ubuntu-server ISO? | 02:00 |
| valorie | and then kubuntu-desktop on that | 02:00 |
| valorie | if the server ISO won't boot, I don't know what to say | 02:00 |
| tiwake_ | is there something I can pass to GRUB to try? | 02:00 |
| valorie | will grub even come up? | 02:01 |
| === tiwake_ is now known as tiwake | ||
| valorie | if so, you can always try the safe mode | 02:01 |
| tiwake | I donno... what key do I hold down? | 02:01 |
| valorie | ah, if there is no other OS on the computer, it doesn't even show up, yeah | 02:02 |
| valorie | !grub2 | 02:02 |
| ubottu | GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 02:02 |
| tiwake | so.. | 02:02 |
| valorie | the second link might have some ideas | 02:02 |
| valorie | one can comment out the quiet splash | 02:02 |
| valorie | which lets you see what's actually happening | 02:03 |
| valorie | and then there is nomodeset, but I have no clue if it will work here | 02:03 |
| valorie | !nomodeset | 02:03 |
| ubottu | A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 02:03 |
| tiwake | <R_SHIFT> it seems | 02:04 |
| tiwake | yay, I see stuff | 02:05 |
| tiwake | ok, what do I do now that I see the grub menu? | 02:06 |
| tiwake | lol | 02:06 |
| valorie | what did you do? | 02:06 |
| tiwake | held down right shift key | 02:06 |
| tiwake | kubuntu is the only OS on this computer | 02:06 |
| valorie | well | 02:06 |
| valorie | you can try nomodeset | 02:07 |
| tiwake | how? | 02:07 |
| valorie | but I would read the link above | 02:07 |
| * valorie goes to watch the news | 02:08 | |
| tiwake | valorie: what are the nvidia driver packages I want to install? | 02:16 |
| dbrom | Hello , anyone know where I can get a minimal install that can be bootable | 02:19 |
| valorie | !miniiso | 02:20 |
| ubottu | The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want. The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 02:20 |
| valorie | !nvidia | tiwake | 02:20 |
| ubottu | tiwake: For nvidia and matrox graphics cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto . For AMD/ATI graphics cards, see « /msg ubottu ati » and « /msg ubottu fglrxmissing » | 02:20 |
| tiwake | urg | 02:23 |
| tiwake | need the network to do this | 02:23 |
| tiwake | not resolving names | 02:24 |
| tiwake | but I can ping my router | 02:24 |
| tiwake | why | 02:26 |
| tiwake | ooook | 02:29 |
| tiwake | this is weird, after exiting recovery mode and really not doing anything, and resuming normal boot... I get picture | 02:29 |
| valorie | ! | 02:29 |
| tiwake | and now I'm at the desktop | 02:30 |
| tiwake | I don't like nvidia | 02:30 |
| tiwake | lol | 02:30 |
| valorie | amazing | 02:30 |
| ahoneybun | mm having issues with audio | 02:31 |
| ahoneybun | I can't see my HDMI output device | 02:31 |
| ahoneybun | or any device really | 02:31 |
| ahoneybun | http://imgur.com/a/MaWjw | 02:32 |
| dbrom | what a minimal install of kubuntu that is installed on a USB | 02:32 |
| ahoneybun | but when I set a device in Audio Hardware Setup I can hear it just fine | 02:32 |
| valorie | pulseaudio is a "device" | 02:33 |
| dbrom | ..which is not deadicated to the hardware | 02:33 |
| ahoneybun | but I used to see a lot of devices | 02:33 |
| valorie | dbrom: if you want minimal, there is either miniiso, or the ubuntu-server | 02:33 |
| ahoneybun | when I set the right device that I can hear sound in the test it still does not work | 02:33 |
| valorie | which you can then add kubuntu-desktop on top | 02:34 |
| valorie | ahoneybun: :( | 02:34 |
| valorie | sounds like a bug in artful | 02:34 |
| ahoneybun | valorie: not sure it happens on my laptop and desktop | 02:34 |
| ahoneybun | it's 17.04 and 17.10 | 02:34 |
| valorie | oh! | 02:35 |
| valorie | hmmm | 02:35 |
| ahoneybun | that screenshot was of 17.04 | 02:35 |
| ahoneybun | I've even used pulseaudio tools to find the right one | 02:35 |
| ahoneybun | found it but settings it in the conf file was no good | 02:35 |
| ahoneybun | mm I wonder if it's a Application issue | 02:37 |
| tiwake | anyway, cheers | 02:37 |
| tiwake | (buy AMD videocards) | 02:38 |
| ahoneybun | but NVIDIA is better | 02:38 |
| tiwake | not if you count the recent signed firmware hassle (that I just went though), oh, and you won't be able to run wayland either | 02:39 |
| ahoneybun | tiwake: I can just switch to my intel then | 02:39 |
| ahoneybun | I know about the wayland thing tho | 02:40 |
| tiwake | years after wayland was official and released, nvidia basically said "no, you gotta redo the whole framework so our drivers can drop in" | 02:41 |
| tiwake | disgusting | 02:41 |
| tiwake | anyway, TTFN | 02:43 |
| dbrom | Id like to have it be able to be bootable from any system | 02:44 |
| valorie | dbrom, does miniiso or ubuntu server not meet your needs? | 02:45 |
| valorie | !miniiso | 02:45 |
| ubottu | The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want. The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 02:45 |
| dbrom | will that boot from any system | 02:45 |
| valorie | I'm not sure -- please read the link | 02:46 |
| dbrom | I am installing it on a usb that i want to be able to boot from and system once installed on said usb | 02:52 |
| valorie | ah, you want a system installed ON a usb | 02:54 |
| valorie | dbrom: you might try https://www.pendrivelinux.com/ | 02:56 |

| selva | hi | 11:41 |
| selva | new to irc | 11:42 |
| selva | no reply's | 11:42 |
| selva | :p | 11:42 |
| lordievader[m] | Hey selva | 11:42 |
| selva | hi iordievader | 11:43 |
| lordievader[m] | selva: IRC is a relatively indirect medium ;) | 11:43 |
| lordievader[m] | Lots of people idling around. | 11:43 |
| selva | wow thats pretty long name | 11:43 |
| selva | ok | 11:43 |
| selva | so you are on kubuntu | 11:43 |
| lordievader[m] | Nope, not me. | 11:44 |
| selva | then | 11:44 |
| selva | you are contributing to it | 11:44 |
| selva | ???? | 11:44 |
| lordievader[m] | I'm running Gentoo. | 11:44 |
| selva | is it cool? | 11:44 |
| lordievader[m] | Not really. Don't do much more than doing some support and testing stuff every once in a while. | 11:45 |
| selva | is any linux distro that has package support | 11:45 |
| selva | i mean .exe like | 11:46 |
| selva | ???? | 11:46 |
| === selva is now known as selva__ | ||
| === selva__ is now known as selva | ||
| lordievader[m] | .exe is not a package. It denotes a Windows executable. | 11:46 |
| lordievader[m] | Normally these things do not run under Linux. Though there are projects like Wine. | 11:47 |
| lordievader[m] | !info wine | 11:47 |
| ubottu | Package wine does not exist in zesty | 11:47 |
| lordievader[m] | Hmm | 11:47 |
| lordievader[m] | https://www.winehq.org/ | 11:47 |
| selva | i mean like .rpm | 11:47 |
| hateball | selva: Ubuntu uses deb packages | 11:48 |
| hateball | !deb | 11:48 |
| ubottu | deb is the Debian package format, also used by Ubuntu. To install .deb files, simply double-click (in Ubuntu) or click (in Kubuntu) on them to start the GDebi utility. | 11:48 |
| lordievader[m] | Those are Redhat packages. Not supported under (K)Ubuntu. | 11:48 |
| selva | .deb always says to download dependencies | 11:48 |
| hateball | selva: you're not supposed to install that way, use the repos | 11:48 |
| hateball | !apt | 11:48 |
| ubottu | APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome), !Muon (KDE) or !Apper (KDE) | 11:48 |
| selva | ok | 11:49 |
| oerheks | also .rpm needs dependencies, so your claim is invalid | 11:49 |
| lordievader[m] | I was about to say that ;) | 11:49 |
| selva | but what if i wanted to install in offline | 11:49 |
| hateball | Then you would need all dependencies downloaded as well | 11:49 |
| hateball | !aptoffline | 11:49 |
| hateball | hmmm | 11:49 |
| hateball | there is something like that | 11:50 |
| oerheks | just !offline | 11:50 |
| hateball | !offline | 11:50 |
| ubottu | If you need to download Ubuntu packages using another machine or OS, check the desired packages in Synaptic and select File > Generate package download script. See also !APTonCD | 11:50 |
| selva | ok | 11:50 |
| hateball | heh, synaptic -_- | 11:50 |
| selva | thanks for helping out guys | 11:50 |
| oerheks | have fun, selva! | 11:50 |

| === user|49196 is now known as Mark_uk | ||
| genii | Mark_uk: PPC or Intel Mac? | 17:43 |
| Mark_uk | Intel Macbook Pro | 17:43 |
| genii | Mark_uk: You just use the regular ISO for those | 17:44 |
| Mark_uk | ok mate, Thanks.. i remember there was a Mac specific ISO years ago | 17:44 |
| genii | For PPC, yes :) | 17:44 |
| Mark_uk | ahh was it ppc.. my memory must be going :) | 17:45 |
| mparillo | http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/zesty/release/ seems to suggest 32-bit for "newer Apple Macintosh systems based on Intel processors." I assume that is obsolete? | 17:45 |
| Mark_uk | hmm,, | 17:45 |
| Mark_uk | seems to be obsolete | 17:45 |
| Mark_uk | - the Mac specific ISO that is - and it was PPC - Thanks to genii for illuminating me :) | 17:46 |
| Mark_uk | last time i used *buntu distro it was 10.4 LTS | 17:48 |
| genii | There is still a community PPC port also, i believe at ports.ubuntu.com | 17:48 |
| Mark_uk | ahh. | 17:48 |
| Mark_uk | i never had a PPC Mac | 17:48 |
| Mark_uk | only had the hardware since it was Intel | 17:49 |
| genii | mparillo: I imagine so, but not certain. I'd probably try 64bit first | 17:50 |
| mparillo | I agree (though I have never tried it). | 17:50 |
