[01:51] <DatMale21> hello, i was running ubuntu-mate and used firefox to access this link https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/precedence when my computer froze
[01:55] <DatMale21> i would highly suggest you to switch from firefox to icecat (gnu) since firefox have been busted "stealing" users information more then once, just look it up on duckduckgo.com, they did it in the iOS app, and they to it mildly in the normal used firefox with any choice of there info getting stolen unless the user sees the little "choose what you share" button in the bottom of the browser window the first times they run it, a more hardcore user
[01:55] <DatMale21> might know this and do change it as soon as he uses the firefox in preferences, but the normie users do not see it as clear as the hardcore, i beg
[01:56] <DatMale21> beg you to not ship ubuntu-mate with firefox in next install, they do also use google by standard where other browsers like tor-browser or icecat uses duckduckgo.com to respect the users privacy and freedom, i suspect firefox to sell out to google when it comes to making google the standard search engine after install
[01:57] <DatMale21> icecat-gnu is also respected by fsf i think.. please :D
[03:23] <Kyoku> wow, I just installed mate for first time.. it's awesome
[09:00] <ziutek> Hello
[12:33] <mancman3> fuck it - HELLO :)
[15:35] <jolo_> to wifi
[15:35] <jolo_> cant connect to wifi
[16:10] <i_> Hello, new user here.
[16:11] <i_> Just to say hi and thanks for the this OS, i have a clean install to use it.
[17:45] <MarioMey> Hi, everybody.
[17:45] <MarioMey> I want to suggest something for mate-screenshot. I know where it is in github, but this is not a bug, but a suggestion.
[17:45] <MarioMey> Where should I post it?
[17:47] <MarioMey> Issues and tag it with "Feature request"?
[17:47] <Akuli> maybe someone on #mate knows? it's not a very active channel though
[17:47] <Akuli> some projects seem to use github's issues for this, not sure about mate
[17:48] <MarioMey> Akuli: anyway... do you know how to tag an issue with "feature request"?¿
[17:48] <MarioMey> I don't find the way.
[17:48] <Akuli> i have no idea
[17:48] <Akuli> maybe tags are usually added by the people who maintain the repository? i dont know
[17:49] <MarioMey> Maybe.
[17:49] <MarioMey> Ha, ha!
[17:49] <MarioMey> I enter in an issue to look if I find the way... and it is exactly about what I wanted to post!
[17:50] <MarioMey> mate-screenshot does not allow to copy screenshot to clipboard by commandline argument (https://github.com/mate-desktop/mate-utils/issues/160)
[17:51] <Akuli> give it a thumbs up :)
[17:53] <MarioMey> :)
[17:55] <DarkPsydeLord> i usually pipe things to my xclip
[17:55] <DarkPsydeLord> not sure if related
[17:56] <DarkPsydeLord> also im a lil dizzy today so i didnt read most of it
[18:00] <Akuli> $ function screencopy () { mate-screenshot $@ | xclip }
[18:00] <Akuli> lol
[18:11] <DarkPsydeLord> :D
[18:11] <Kyoku> i installed mate 17.04 in vmware along with vmware tools and when i drag windows around they move very slowly - anyone seen this before / know a fix?
[18:30] <cyberpato> hi
[18:36] <DarkPsydeLord> ok i reintalled 17.04 and im still getting this random system errors but i think they happen when i click on maximize a virtual desktop
[18:37] <DarkPsydeLord> and since mate-maximus is involved i assume it's related
[20:12] <Kyros> anyone know how to get torrent files to open with deluge instead of transmission
[20:12] <Akuli> right-click a torrent file, open with, browse to deluge, check open with this by default
[20:12] <Akuli> oh in the open with menu choose "other application"
[20:14] <Kyros> thanks
[20:54] <bard> Hi!
[20:55] <bard> Has anyone used Clamscan and Clamtk?  Why are the fonts so messed up?  Is there a better alternative?
[20:57] <Akuli> yes, common sense and ublock :)
[20:57] <Akuli> antiviruses are a windows thing, and a stupid idea anyway
[21:01] <xmetal> common sense is a good tool
[21:40] <Sweetlew> Hello, all! I have no sound, and I'm trying to solve this issue ASAP.
[21:41] <Sweetlew> I've googled everything, and nothing has helped. So, yeah...
[21:42] <Sweetlew> Anybody there at all?
[21:44] <xmetal> stupid question but did you check in say "Sound" that something didn't get muted by accident?
[21:45] <Sweetlew> Nothing muted, xmetal.
[21:53] <DarkPsydeLord> no sound using what?
[21:53] <DarkPsydeLord> did it work before?
[21:54] <Sweetlew> DarkPsydeLord: Pulse/alsa
[21:55] <DarkPsydeLord> do you have different audio interfaces?
[21:55] <DarkPsydeLord> which one is enabled under hardware?
[21:57] <Sweetlew> right now, I'm on pavucontrol.
[22:00] <DarkPsydeLord> just go to the sound preferences and tell me whats running under the hardware tab
[22:01] <Sweetlew> Built-in audio
[22:01] <Sweetlew> 1 output/2 inputs
[22:02] <Sweetlew> Analog Stereo Duplex
[22:02] <DarkPsydeLord> did it work before? or this is a fresh install?
[22:02] <Sweetlew> It worked before.
[22:05] <DarkPsydeLord> did you add some new software or hardware?
[22:06] <Sweetlew> I tried to play around with retroarch yesterday/last night, and everything was working good. Went to play with it some more today, and no sound. Uninstalled it, still no sound.
[22:06] <Sweetlew> Tried to force-reload alsa, of course that didn't work.
[22:12] <DarkPsydeLord> ok you said you tried several other different things you found on the internet i wanna know what you did
[22:13] <Sweetlew> https://askubuntu.com/questions/910423/sound-broken-ubuntu-17-04
[22:18] <CoderEurope> Sweetlew, I am not sure if U-mate comes with this? | but you could give it a try : https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/quantal/gnome-alsamixer/
[22:20] <DarkPsydeLord> Sweetlew, i want you to do this for me pls
[22:20] <DarkPsydeLord> wget -O alsa-info.sh http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh && chmod +x ./alsa-info.sh && ./alsa-info.sh
[22:21] <DarkPsydeLord> you will get a link so i can see the how is it running and some more useful info
[22:25] <Sweetlew> DarkPsydeLord: http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=02ac5aefbc431fededfc2bfb06bd1833bc996c77
[22:30] <DarkPsydeLord> the only i can see after a rapid inspection is the new driver used for usb headphones
[22:31] <Sweetlew> Well, I was able to get audio working for my headphones, but still nothing for my main speakers.
[22:31] <DarkPsydeLord> and also theres no output for speakers
[22:31] <Sweetlew> Want me to unplug my headphones and try again?
[22:31] <DarkPsydeLord> i wonder if we can trick alsa deleting the files
[22:32] <Sweetlew> Maybe.
[22:32] <DarkPsydeLord> ok lets do this
[22:33] <DarkPsydeLord> "killall pulseaudio"
[22:33] <Sweetlew> ok
[22:34] <Sweetlew> now what?
[22:35] <DarkPsydeLord> after stopping the services "rm -r ~/.config/pulse/*" and inmediatly after that "rm -r ~/.pulse*"
[22:35] <DarkPsydeLord> then just restart after you unpluged your headphones
[22:35] <DarkPsydeLord> that should work
[22:36] <DarkPsydeLord> alsoi
[22:36] <Sweetlew> rm: cannot remove '/home/lewis/pulse/*': No such file or directory
[22:37] <Sweetlew> Oh, oops.
[22:37] <Sweetlew> rm: cannot remove '/home/lewis/.pulse/*': No such file or directory
[22:37] <DarkPsydeLord> nope .pulse*
[22:38] <Sweetlew> Still nothing.
[22:38] <Sweetlew> Should I go ahead and restart?
[22:39] <DarkPsydeLord> well the first one worked isnt it?
[22:39] <DarkPsydeLord> that means at least cfg is gone
[22:39] <DarkPsydeLord> so lets do it
[22:45] <Sweetlew> DarkPsydeLord: Fixed it. Somehow my volume got lowered.
[22:45] <DarkPsydeLord> Nice!
[22:45] <DarkPsydeLord> im glad is working now
[22:46] <Sweetlew> Thanks!
[22:46] <DarkPsydeLord> yw
