| i336 | hi. I have installed all -dbg packages from https://launchpad.net/~canonical-chromium-builds. They work fine, but I am confused as to how to utilize their debugging information. The -dbg packages seem to contain a /usr/lib/debug directory, and inside there is a brand new /usr/lib tree. | 00:11 |
| i336 | well, a new /usr/lib/chromium-browser tree. inside _that_ tree are a set of files that match what it is in /usr/lib/chromium-browser, but file says "interpreter *empty*" for all of them, and they do not run. | 00:12 |
| i336 | I've done some digging around and apparently the two recognized debug mechanisms are the build-id approach and the gnu_debuglink approach. | 00:12 |
| i336 | there *is* a .build-id/<hash> folder inside /usr/lib/debug/, but it only contains a single 64MB file./ | 00:13 |
| i336 | none of the ELF "binaries" in debug/chromium-browser contain gnu_debuglink sections. | 00:13 |
| i336 | I know this is about chromium, but this is the launchpad package (and I'm not sure if official chromium has debug symbols) so I thought I'd ask her.e | 00:14 |
| i336 | here.* | 00:14 |
| i336 | if anyone has suggestions as to other channels I can ask I'd be happy to hear that too. | 00:14 |
| i336 | thanks! | 00:14 |
| Jack_Sparrow__ | !chromium | 00:15 |
| ubottu | You can get testing builds for Chromium at https://launchpad.net/~chromium-daily/+archive/ppa | 00:15 |
| i336 | hmm | 00:16 |
| i336 | Jack_Sparrow__: PSA, the bot should be updated. "PPA description: This PPA is dead." | 00:16 |
| i336 | "Latest updates: chromium-browser" "266 weeks" | 00:16 |
| Jack_Sparrow__ | I was just reading that, thamls | 00:19 |
| Jack_Sparrow__ | thanks | 00:19 |

| Jack_Sparrow__ | I use chrome for hulu and netflix here | 00:20 |
| i336 | Jack_Sparrow__: I see. fwiw, I'm scrambling around to keep up with where to find precompiled 32-bit copies of chromium for my old laptop. I've been using ppa.launchpad.net/saiarcot895/chromium-dev/ubuntu/ (there's also -beta) for a while, but this seems to be updated quite sporadically | 00:20 |
| i336 | so I did some poking around and found ~canonical-chromium-builds | 00:21 |
| Jack_Sparrow__ | 32 bit is dead, hardware especially used is cheap | 00:21 |
| i336 | I agree | 00:21 |
| i336 | I have a couple flaky 64-bit machines here, but they have issues | 00:22 |
| i336 | :P | 00:22 |
| Jack_Sparrow__ | Try a bunch of live versions on them, ipv6 set to ignore, install with land line to your router for the install then go wireless | 00:23 |
| hfp | Bashing-om: I see. The Runtime_Bad_Block is described as "The count of the number of times SATA interface selected lower signaling rate due to error." on this page: https://www.thomas-krenn.com/en/wiki/SMART_attributes_of_Intel_SSDs. I thought the really nasty stuff was Reallocated_Sector_Ct and that's 0 :s | 00:24 |
| i336 | Jack_Sparrow__: oh you mean to see what ubuntu will do when asked to load debug info? interesting idea | 00:24 |
| Jack_Sparrow__ | I use most versions of Ubuntu and Mint, mostly Mate | 00:25 |
| i336 | right. | 00:25 |
| Bashing-om | hfp: True, I adhere to my former. let's await other's opinions here also . | 00:27 |
| hfp | Bashing-om: Sure, thanks. I could get the machine going again by using a backup superblock as per https://askubuntu.com/questions/137655/boot-drops-to-a-initramfs-prompts-busybox#148820 although I'm still not sure why it happened in the first place. A failing SSD is a possibility but idk how to tell/ | 00:28 |
| Bashing-om | hfp: That is also my supposition . Re-installing and getting read only file system, makes the drive suspect . | 00:31 |

| Jack_Sparrow__ | Does any of his help.. https://sites.google.com/site/installationubuntu/home/ubuntu-14-04-lts/firefox-and-h-264 | 00:37 |
| qxt | thx | 00:39 |
| i336 | okay, I had the paths wrong | 00:59 |
| i336 | finally straced gdb | 00:59 |
| i336 | it was looking in the wrong spot :P you need to configure the debug dir, and that debug dir needs to itself have a full path heirarchy to the binary. | 01:00 |
| i336 | so eg if the binary is in ~, you need ~/aaa/bbb/debug/home/.../aaa/bbb/ | 01:01 |
| Jack_Sparrow__ | good to know tx | 01:01 |
| MarkB3 | When I log in, I want a global environment variable set. SWT_GTK3=0 . I've put that into .bashrc, into .profile, into .bash_profile .. and it's not coming up when I start a terminal and $ echo $SWT_GTK3 . All that comes back in an empty result. | 01:09 |
| MarkB3 | A clue would be appreciated... | 01:10 |
| Jack_Sparrow__ | would that go in grub where you have quiet splash ? | 01:13 |
| MarkB3 | I .. do not know. The system is set to automatically log me in... and I don't know the execution path from there. | 01:14 |
| Jack_Sparrow__ | are you running elementary ? | 01:21 |
| MarkB3 | Hmm.. I don't know what "elementary" means in this context. The system is Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. It boots.. then I bring up a Terminal.. type $echo $SWT_GTK3 and out pops a blank line. So the various .startup files I've been editing haven't done the job. | 01:25 |

| pynki | :/ sry | 01:28 |
| pynki | MarkB3, you want that set all the time when you login? Not just in the terminal you open. right? | 01:29 |
| MarkB3 | pynki: Yes. It turns out Eclipse, if it "sees" gtk3 in the system, wants to use it. On this computer, though, it's terribly slow. | 01:30 |
| MarkB3 | A workaround is to put SWT_GTK3 into the environment.. and Eclipse falls back to the faster (if dated) interface. | 01:30 |
| Jack_Sparrow__ | !fglrx | Jack_Sparrow__ | 01:30 |
| ubottu | Jack_Sparrow__, please see my private message | 01:30 |
| MarkB3 | Why do I want it in my global environment? | 01:31 |
| MarkB3 | Because I'm starting Eclipse from a desktop icon, not a command line. | 01:31 |
| pynki | MarkB3, what i would do is: create a script, export the $VAR you need and then let it start eclipse | 01:32 |
| pynki | or use the eclipse.ini for that | 01:33 |
| MarkB3 | I did try that. When I mark the script as executable and put it in ~/Desktop, left-clicking on it brings up an editor. | 01:33 |
| MarkB3 | Putting it in eclipse.ini is ..too late.. in the startup for eclipse. Apparently the decision is made much earlier. | 01:33 |
| MarkB3 | Well, "much" is a relative term. It's made earlier. | 01:34 |
| MarkB3 | As best I can tell.. when I log in, bash starts up... it's not clear at that point if it's an interactive shell. But the start-up eventually produces a GUI desktop.. which means "startx" must be running from somewhere. | 01:35 |
| pynki | MarkB3, and then x is started, and 2134346 other things init and one will set SWT_GTK3=1 i assume, or more than one. | 01:36 |
| pynki | you do not want to set that globally | 01:36 |
| pynki | if you need it only for eclipse | 01:37 |
| MarkB3 | ... if I don't set it globally then I'll have to write something (yes, I can do it) that sets the environment variable then invokes the script that runs from /usr/bin/eclipse . | 01:37 |
| MarkB3 | I don't think the .desktop files allow setting a variable before launching an application. | 01:38 |
| pynki | #!/bin/bash export SWT_GTK3=0 /usr/bin/eclipse & exit 0 | 01:39 |
| MarkB3 | Hmm.. | 01:39 |
| pynki | every second [space] is a linebreak | 01:39 |
| pynki | ...or not :P | 01:39 |
| MarkB3 | And I just got another surprise... | 01:39 |
| pynki | just place line breaks at the desired places | 01:39 |
| pynki | https://askubuntu.com/questions/80013/how-to-pin-eclipse-to-the-unity-launcher/53061#53061 here the answer on how to make that script available to the launcher bar | 01:41 |
| MarkB3 | Hmm.. might have found the solution.. checking. | 01:44 |

| Shaan | Hi, Has anyone got any experience doing Full Disk Encryption, on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS? | 02:29 |
| Shaan | What software if any exists that works similar to truecrypt except on Ubuntu?, offering full disk encryption including /boot and pre-boot authentication? | 02:30 |
| pynki | Shaan, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FullDiskEncryptionHowto have a look at this | 02:31 |
| Shaan | pynki: that only uses dm_crypt or cryptoloop the latter has security issues. | 02:32 |
| Shaan | and dm_crypt wont do what I need. | 02:33 |
| pynki | it gives you the base layer i think and then you add your own /bbot encryption on top of that. | 02:33 |
| Shaan | pynki: it's rather confusing. | 02:34 |
| Mathisen | luks ? | 02:35 |

| Umeaboy | Hi! | 02:55 |
| Umeaboy | Somehow Unity is set to another resolution that what's chosen in 17.04. | 02:56 |
| pynki | you haev a screenshot of that Umeaboy ? | 02:57 |
| Umeaboy | pynki: Hold on...... | 02:58 |
| Umeaboy | pynki: http://imgur.com/a/oybq4 | 02:59 |
| Umeaboy | Changing it to 1920x1080 makes it even worse. | 02:59 |
| Umeaboy | That's the optimal screen resolution for me. | 02:59 |
| Umeaboy | Any tips? | 03:01 |
| Umeaboy | It was working fine in 16.04 and 16.10. | 03:01 |
| pynki | Umeaboy, n9oBZhQ.jpg (JPEG Image, 3840 × 2160 pixels) | 03:02 |
| pynki | the resolution is fine | 03:03 |
| Umeaboy | pynki: Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuhm........ WHUUUUUUUUUT? I'm not using Hexchat atm so I guess I can't see any links. | 03:03 |
| Umeaboy | Don't you see that it's set to a smaller resolution? | 03:03 |
| pynki | no links, but your screenshot has the desired resolution of 3840x2160 | 03:04 |
| Umeaboy | It makes the window for Skype not looking OK. | 03:04 |
| Umeaboy | Skype looks to have a different resolution than what's set in the settings. | 03:04 |
| pynki | i am not sure what you mean by that! the video resolution is bad? the skype window has "lange pixels"? | 03:06 |
| Umeaboy | Let me show you....... Hold on.... | 03:07 |
| pynki | i can see the skype online-logo in the top right is a bit blurry - i assume its not made for such a big resolution and they just stretch the pixels | 03:07 |
| Umeaboy | pynki: http://imgur.com/a/RMEwe | 03:09 |
| Umeaboy | NO, I'm not using Backports medias. | 03:09 |
| pynki | to me that skype login screen looks totally fine | 03:12 |
| pynki | it has a fixed size i think and thats why its small | 03:12 |
| Umeaboy | I guess I should take it with the people at #xorg | 03:12 |
| Umeaboy | Or #wayland | 03:13 |
| Umeaboy | And where do I change that? | 03:13 |

| Umeaboy | Preferrably. | 03:26 |
| pynki | Umeaboy, seems to be a known issue. couldn't find anything about on how to fix it. this article has some general hints on how to make big resolutions look better - but skype seems to be an issue http://www.pcworld.com/article/2911509/how-to-make-linuxs-desktop-look-good-on-high-resolution-displays.html. this thread has some chatter about problems on widows with skype and high resolution screens https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4721751 | 03:27 |

| Umeaboy | skinux: Disable fast boot. | 03:35 |
| skinux | I didn't see fast boot in BIOS | 03:36 |
| pynki | its a windows feature and shouldn't mess up your boot priorities i think | 03:36 |
| pynki | as long as you choose the right device to boot in the bios | 03:36 |

| Latrina | I have a glitch with gnome-shell 3.18.5 and application switcher focusing on a tab http://i.imgur.com/i2oYDqC.png | 03:37 |
| Latrina | apparently this happened after reinstalling ubuntu-desktop on 16.04. Any ideas? I created a new test account and all is good. I seem to have the issue only with my own account | 03:38 |
| pynki | controlpanel - hardware adn sound - power options - system settings skinux. but it should not change anything about booting another device | 03:38 |
| skinux | I don't see any settings related to fast boot, just about when to turn off the screen. | 03:41 |
| pynki | skinux, https://imgur.com/a/jAtDE | 03:42 |
| pynki | skinux, i do not think that turning that off will help in any way. that needs the hdd already choosen for boot. but you want the dvd drive to boot - oi think you choose that in the bios or the "quyick choose device to boot" option of your machine, right? | 03:43 |
| skinux | I have DVD as top boot priority, but it's ignored. I haven't found a way to access a menu to specify DVD to boot. | 03:45 |

| Latrina | anyone? | 03:46 |
| pynki | Latrina, copying the settings for gnome-shell/ switcher from the new account that works? | 03:47 |
| skinux | F10 goes into BIOS setup, haven't tried F12 | 03:47 |
| pynki | i cannot help with the problem itself Latrina | 03:47 |
| Latrina | pynki, haven't tried that yet. What file exactly do I need to copy over? | 03:47 |
| Latrina | also will that copy my gnome shell extensions? | 03:48 |
| pynki | Latrina, i do not know. :/ | 03:48 |
| Latrina | I will investigate. Thanks | 03:48 |
| pynki | Latrina, its a program specific problem - you might wait days until someone here come up with that specific knowledge i think. Getting a clean config that is proven to work is just the first thing i would do to fix the problem without having the trouble of researching the particular problem | 03:49 |
| Latrina | pynki, fair enough, though I spent way too long achieving this sane (for me at least) setup. | 03:51 |
| Latrina | I will keep that in mind .. | 03:51 |

| Komputerfreak | you probably need to refresh the bootloader | 08:00 |
| Komputerfreak | but it depends on your installation | 08:00 |
| Komputerfreak | for example, updating the bootloader can destroy the passphrase of encrypted partitions if not done carefully | 08:00 |
| banyantree | Komputerfreak: yesterday i tried to install steam. I didnt read the output =( ive also installed luks | 08:01 |
| banyantree | Komputerfreak: is there a tutorial or something? | 08:01 |
| banyantree | Komputerfreak: at the moment i booted up the system with an usb install stick | 08:02 |
| Komputerfreak | probably but it has to be done really carefully with luks, from what i remember from reading the forums | 08:02 |
| Komputerfreak | i never tried it myself though | 08:02 |
| Komputerfreak | so maybe it is better to wait for someone with more experience | 08:03 |
| banyantree | ok thanks | 08:03 |
| sebsebseb | hi | 08:03 |
| Komputerfreak | the problem is that the passphrase is writen in a section of the disk grubs likes to overwrite with the standard parameters - or at least this was a bug some time ago | 08:06 |

| lkh | my wlan connection keeps dropping at random intervals. Syslog shows CTRL-EVENT-DISCONNECTED with reason=4. What does that mean? | 08:22 |
| kova | Hello, I've been having problems with organizing gcc-6 and libc-6 on my Lubuntu distro, so I was wondering what I could do to revert to a minimal good configuration | 08:28 |
| kova | Bear with me, my situation is probably difficult to describe accurately | 08:28 |
| kova | It started with me wanting to install gcc-6.3 on my x86-64 system, so I naturally had to install libc6 | 08:31 |
| ledeni | lkh, CTRL-EVENT-DISCONNECTED with reason=4 should mean the router disconnects due to inactivity.Maybe have a look in your router config for keep-alive options. | 08:33 |
| kova | Except that there's libc6:i386, libc6-i386, libc6-amd64:i386, libc6-x32 and all the -dev versions | 08:33 |
| === luke is now known as Guest70320 | ||
| lkh | ledeni, trouble is, network-manager doesn't reconnect automatically, but asks for password every time - super annoying... | 08:35 |
| kova | Long story short, now there a few applications which, when I compile and run them, abort with a `double free or corruption` error, and I suspect it's due to the libc on my system | 08:35 |
| kova | If anyone were willing to sit with me or indicate a resource I could go to, I would be very much obliged | 08:36 |
| ledeni | lkh, witch router you have | 08:36 |
| Guest70320 | Why aren't very old packages in the Software Centre, which haven't seen development in years, not removed? On Fedora at least you could trust that an app you download from the Software Centre would actually run, not so much in ubuntu | 08:36 |

| YankDownUnder | lkh, If you set the connection up for using a static IP, does it do the same? | 08:43 |
| kova | If it helps anyone, one of my basic questions is: what's the difference between libc6:i386 and libc6-i386? | 08:44 |

| lkh | wlan dropped again ... any idea how to approach this problem? | 08:47 |
| ledeni | lkh, did you look in network manager for option automatically connection | 08:48 |
| YankDownUnder | lkh, I had asked - before you dropped out - if you had tried doing a "static IP" connection as opposed to a DHCP connection...to see if that did anything... | 08:48 |

| lkh | YankDownUnder: no, haven't tried that, I will now. | 08:51 |
| YankDownUnder | lkh, What version of Ubuntu are you using? | 08:51 |
| lkh | YankDownUnder: ubuntu gnome 17.04 | 08:52 |
| kova | MonkeyDust: ok, the main problem I have is that trying to install libc6-dev-amd64:i386 ends in: | 08:53 |
| kova | `dpkg: error processing archive /tmp/apt-dpkg-install-hy6mFr/11-libc6-dev-amd64_2.24-9ubuntu2_i386.deb (--unpack): | 08:53 |
| kova | trying to overwrite '/usr/include/bits', which is also in package libc6-dev-i386 2.24-9ubuntu2` | 08:53 |

| === akira is now known as Guest28816 | ||

| YankDownUnder | lkh_, There is a section of the /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf => where one can comment out the bit about "dns=dnsmasq" => where NetworkManager "thinks" there is no DNS and therefore tries to reconnect - and also relatively mucks up DNS lookups... | 09:06 |
| kova | genii indeed, after the error occurred in synaptic the package was marked as `to be installed` | 09:06 |

| kova | genii let me check | 09:07 |
| kova | genii yes there is an entry in there | 09:08 |
| kova | genii okay, running `sudo dpkg -i` on it results in a bunch of skipped overwrites of header files which are in libc6-dev-i386 | 09:10 |

| genii | kova: In this case, your machine clearly seems to have multiarch since it can use :i386 on apt commands. So when given a choice between a package which has amd64 in the package name and one which has i386 in the packagename which want to use the same files, I'd opt here for the amd64:i386 option | 09:21 |

| genii | kova: Sure | 09:28 |
| kova | genii what do you mean, uninstall it? | 09:29 |
| kova | genii trying to uninstall libc6-dev:i386 would result in libc6-dev-amd64:i386 being uninstalled too, so I guess it's a no go | 09:30 |
| YankDownUnder | Guest79958, The ISO becomes a virtual CD/DVD for installation. A virtual HDD is the destination. During the installation of Win7, it will partition the virtual HDD - after the installation is complete, the ISO can be removed from the VM and the virtual HDD will - SHOULD - be a bootable virtual HDD | 09:30 |
| kova | genii per Synaptic | 09:30 |
| sebsebseb | yes you need a virtual hard disk guest79958 | 09:31 |
| genii | kova: I think some of the things you are trying to install are transitory which just point to the other thing. Like, libc6-dev-i386 would probably just point to libc6-dev:i386 and so on here | 09:32 |

| kova | genii If I understood correctly, whatever ends in `:i386` runs on an i386 system, while whatever ends in `-i386` compiles for i386? | 09:42 |
| Guest79958 | thank you sebseb | 09:43 |
| genii | kova: When you use syntax packagename:i386 this means you are asking specifically for a different platform than your machine would try to grab by the architecture which it is currently running. Whereas package names like packagename-386 are specific to 386 for instance | 09:44 |
| genii | kova: So you can do things like apt install packagename:arm64 on an amd64 machine for instance with -dev packages if you want to cross-compile for arm64 on an amd64 system | 09:45 |
| genii | kova: But if you're on a 386 machine, it won't show you packagenames ending in -amd64 for instance, since it's not a binary that your machine is capable of running | 09:47 |
| kova | genii ahh | 09:47 |
| kova | genii so wait, I assume that `libc6` on my system would be `libc6:amd64` on another architecture? Or `libc-amd64`? | 09:49 |
| genii | kova: Use: apt-cache policy libc6 ...to find out which architectures it installed libc6 for | 09:49 |
| kova | genii it doesn't say... guess it's native | 09:51 |
| lkh_ | YankDownUnder: looks good so far. Do you know if this is a known problem? should I file a bug report? | 09:51 |
| genii | kova: If you just use: apt-cache policy libc6 you'll see a line like: 500 http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-updates/main amd64 Packages <--- note the "amd64" | 09:52 |
| YankDownUnder | lkh_, I've been seeing this heaps with 17.04...and if merely setting a static IP resolves your issue, be happy with that. There are numerous bug reports about wifi networking and NetworkManager dropping out - along with dnsmasq...ergo, wait...a fix will be rolled out... | 09:53 |
| kova | genii ah, yes it's amd64 allright | 09:53 |
| LankanGuy | Hi, im try to mount a network driver to fstab and im getting error, | 09:53 |
| LankanGuy | "//192.168.1.254/Modem USB storage/" /mnt/modem cifs username=usr,xxx,domain=WORKGROUP 0 0 | 09:53 |
| LankanGuy | is that because of the qutation? | 09:53 |
| genii | kova: If you don't give apt-cache the :architecture it reports for the default architecture. So apt-cache policy libc6:i386 will specifically tell you if the 32bit version is also installed | 09:53 |
| kova | genii yep, got both `:i386` and `-i386` installed | 09:54 |
| lkh_ | YankDownUnder: ok, I think I had this Problem on my machine since 16.04. But great - this workaround seems to be fine for now. | 09:55 |
| kova | genii now a matter of strategy: would `:i386` packages make `-i386` packages redundant? | 09:55 |
| YankDownUnder | lkh_, Peace, bro...keep watching it...and fingers crossed...keep updating your stuff, too...peace... | 09:56 |
| lkh_ | YankDownUnder, ledeni: thank you guys, have a nice day! | 09:56 |
| genii | kova: That *should* be the idea, yes. Because when you install them the :architecture way it should put them in a directory specific to the architecture they belong to instead of in the main system directories | 09:56 |
| adrian_1908 | hello, I have a question about linux containers. I read that ZFS is the preferred file system, but can a container even use a different filesystem on the host OS's disk? Wouldn't a new partition or something like that be required? | 09:57 |
| LankanGuy | yay i worked it out, need to use 040 insted of space :) | 09:57 |
| MonkeyDust | adrian_1908 i guess you better ask that in #lxcontainers | 09:57 |
| genii | kova: Like, /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ for 64 bit and /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/ for 32 bit | 09:58 |
| === cyborg is now known as Guest29038 | ||
| adrian_1908 | MonkeyDust: Thanks, alas I've asked there several times before about different stuff, and never got any reaction. Seems full of idlers :o | 09:58 |
| kova | genii got it | 09:58 |
| kova | genii last question: is `x32` useful at all? | 10:05 |
| genii | kova: Some older packages put things in places like /usr/lib/lib32 or /usr/lib/lib64 , instead of the ones I listed above, the ones which have x32 or x64 are usually those kind | 10:07 |
| kova | genii wait, I thought x32 was a 32-bit ABI for amd64 systems | 10:08 |
| kova | genii and btw it seems the `:i386` files don't have a special `i386-linux-gnu` directory in `/usr/lib` (I have only `/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu`) | 10:10 |
| genii | kova: packages.ubuntu.com shows me they install to the /usr/lib/lib32 | 10:10 |
| kova | genii god I have neither of those dirs :s | 10:13 |
| kova | genii could it be because I'm on Lubuntu? | 10:13 |
| deldate | hi | 10:13 |
| genii | kova: If you want to find out what architectures your machine is configured to download packages for: apt-config dump | grep Archit | 10:14 |
| genii | The line with Architecture without an s at the end is the default one. It may list others under that | 10:14 |
| kova | genii this has me worried/confused: | 10:15 |
| kova | APT::Architecture "amd64"; | 10:15 |
| kova | APT::Architectures ""; | 10:15 |
| kova | APT::Architectures:: "amd64"; | 10:15 |
| kova | APT::Architectures:: "i386"; | 10:15 |
| genii | kova: So that indicates your system knows it can go grab i386 packages of something if no amd64 package exists for the thing you're trying to install | 10:16 |
| kova | genii so the `Architectures::` are fallbacks? | 10:17 |
| genii | kova: Yes. It will default to 64bit, if something isn't in the repos for 64bit for the packagename you asked for, it will try to find the 32bit version and install that | 10:17 |
| genii | kova: It's after 6am here now and been up all night. so I'll be leaving soon. | 10:18 |
| kova | genii right | 10:18 |
| kova | genii thanks a lot for the help, at least the conflicts are solved | 10:19 |

| cyberef | it loads fine if I do it manually with modprobe | 13:03 |
| sliddis | Kyoku: how is that sensible? :P | 13:05 |
| Kyoku | i think it's a safety catch myself, i personally wouldn't want to my dir messed with during a recursive copy | 13:06 |
| Kyoku | so i think the devs took my personal desire into account when making it work that way, nice of them | 13:06 |

| Umeaboy | I see that I can authenticate to Gmail if I add my account to Evolution instead. | 14:24 |
| Umeaboy | So the problem is in the authentication process in Thunderbird. | 14:24 |
| === mihaic is now known as Guest83532 | ||
| Umeaboy | I'm no expert on how to solve it thou. | 14:24 |
| Umeaboy | Could it be about encryption? | 14:25 |
| sobersabre | Umeaboy: can you exlpain why are you doing this ? | 14:25 |
| Umeaboy | sobersabre: Well, authenticating thru Thunderbird isn't working. | 14:26 |
| Umeaboy | The Next button does not respond. | 14:26 |
| Umeaboy | Neither does the More options button. | 14:26 |
| nicole | pavlos: yes 16.04 | 14:27 |
| Umeaboy | You know...... the window that asks you to type your Gmail password for Thunderbird to add the account. | 14:27 |
| Umeaboy | It works just fine and dandy in Evolution. | 14:27 |
| pavlos | nicole, after selecting repos, run software updater to update your system | 14:27 |
| nicole | pavlos: I think this has to do with the bios of the nic are you sure this is right | 14:28 |
| Umeaboy | Does Ubuntu have a terminal command to rebuild a package from source? | 14:29 |
| Umeaboy | I was thinking of trying that. | 14:29 |
| sebsebseb | Umeaboy: det ar han, det ar du :d | 14:29 |
| Umeaboy | sebsebseb: Hej! Hur mår du? :) | 14:30 |
| sebsebseb | Umeaboy: det ar trokig (boring) | 14:30 |
| pavlos | nicole, 'bios of the nic'? probably you mean linux-firmware where the drivers are kept. By doing update, it will update any drivers it needs | 14:30 |
| Umeaboy | sebsebseb: Samma här. | 14:31 |
| nicole | pavlos: ok | 14:31 |
| sebsebseb | Umeaboy: yeah sucks really thata | 14:32 |
| Umeaboy | sebsebseb: Would you please consider reproducing an authentication issue with Thunderbird for me? | 14:35 |
| Umeaboy | To see if you get the same result. | 14:35 |
| sebsebseb | Umeaboy: oh what kind of issue? | 14:35 |
| Umeaboy | Well, you know the window that pops up when you're adding a Gmail account to THunderbird? | 14:35 |
| sebsebseb | Umeaboy: sort of | 14:36 |
| Umeaboy | The one that asks you to type in the password so that Thunderbird can add the account once you've been authenticated. | 14:36 |
| Umeaboy | THAT'S the window I'm having trouble with, but only in Thunderbird. | 14:36 |
| sebsebseb | Umeaboy: uhmm mine doens't work properly actualy with ok its not a gmail but another type of address but still | 14:36 |
| Umeaboy | Ubuntu 17.04. | 14:37 |
| Menzador | Umeaboy: if it helps, it's better to use OAuth2, and I'm not sure Thunderbird implemens that. | 14:37 |
| Umeaboy | amd64. | 14:37 |
| sebsebseb | Umeaboy: can recieve emails, but not send | 14:37 |
| Umeaboy | Menzador: As I have to add the gmail account first to change to 0Auth2 I can't do that. | 14:41 |
| Umeaboy | It is set to 0Auth2 apparently. | 14:42 |
| Umeaboy | At least when I check what's written in the manual settings. | 14:42 |
| Umeaboy | Changing from 0auth2 to Password in the manual settings does the trick. | 14:44 |
| Maplicant | Hello. I have a problem with my sound on my Dell XPS 15 9550. `aplay -l` says it can't find any sound cards, but with `lspci` I can see that my soundcard is there. Does anyone know how to solve this? | 14:44 |
| nicole | is 4.4 the latest version of the ubuntu kernel? I thought it was 2.6! or something liek that it's only been a year since I stopped using ubuntu | 14:45 |
| Umeaboy | Sending and recieving works just fine. | 14:45 |
| Umeaboy | sebsebseb: Have you tried that? | 14:45 |
| Lucretia | I thought that if a (cron job) script returns an error code >0, then cron is supposed to send an email saying it failed. It's not. Or am I misunderstanding something? | 14:46 |
| Umeaboy | Changing the manual settings for your account from 0auth2 into Password. | 14:46 |
| EriC^^ | Lucretia: do you have postfix installed? | 14:48 |
| Lucretia | yup | 14:48 |
| Lucretia | have email configured | 14:48 |
| Lucretia | EriC^^: | 14:48 |
| EriC^^ | Lucretia: try typing "mail" as that user of the cron | 14:48 |
| Lucretia | now, mail isn't installed, is that why? | 14:49 |
| pavlos | Umeaboy: make this setting OFF ... https://myaccount.google.com/lesssecureapps | 14:49 |
| Lucretia | thought it would use sendmail | 14:49 |
| EriC^^ | Lucretia: try /var/spool/mail/user | 14:49 |
| Lucretia | what do you mean "try /var/spool/mail/user?" | 14:50 |
| EriC^^ | Lucretia: cat /var/spool/mail/<user> | 14:50 |
| Lucretia | EriC^^: again, mail works | 14:50 |
| EriC^^ | no cron mail's there? | 14:50 |
| Lucretia | no | 14:50 |
| Lucretia | nothing in mail.log | 14:50 |
| Lucretia | the cron log shows the script running | 14:50 |
| EriC^^ | ok, i had to install postfix and that allowed cron to send mail about jobs | 14:51 |
| Lucretia | it's literally a script that "exit 1" | 14:51 |
| vans163 | hello. I am having an issue with autosuspending of the USB port which the live environment USB is plugged into. It results of a total messup of the file system. I found autosuspend_delay_ms kernel param, but when using Live USB I do not have luxury to reboot. Any suggestions? | 14:51 |

| hiru | I installed Ubuntu in UEFI mode but now when I turn my pc on I only have a black screen and the pc directly boots into Ubuntu | 15:29 |
| PipeItToDevNull | hiru, Hit your F2 or whatever key to get access, it may just have a short timeout (1s) | 15:30 |
| hiru | right now I have access to Ubuntu and I tried converting my installation into Legacy mode but I still have that black screen | 15:30 |

| perry1 | Hello! | 16:18 |
| presiden-nkrj | my machine always crashing (or slowing down) when Software Updater launching itself | 16:18 |
| nicole | Umeaboy: I know I have to append non-free and contrib to the end of the url | 16:18 |
| Umeaboy | presiden-nkrj: Which Ubuntu version? | 16:18 |
| presiden-nkrj | Ubuntu 16.04 | 16:18 |
| Umeaboy | presiden-nkrj: Can you do a screenshot of that window? | 16:18 |
| nicole | Umeaboy: so append that to the restricted part of my sources.list? | 16:19 |
| ducasse | nicole: which ubuntu version is this? | 16:19 |
| nicole | ducasse: 16.04 | 16:19 |
| presiden-nkrj | Umeaboy: the Software Updater? yes | 16:19 |
| ducasse | nicole: there is no linux-firmware-nonfree for 16.04 | 16:19 |
| Umeaboy | presiden-nkrj: Hmmmmmmmmmmm. Have you reported this issue? | 16:20 |
| nicole | ducasse: ok my problem is that my nic is very slow and I think it needs its firmware | 16:20 |
| Umeaboy | ubuntu-bug update-manager | 16:20 |
| ducasse | nicole: what kind of nic? | 16:20 |
| nicole | ducasse: it's a fa510 100mbps | 16:20 |
| nicole | netgea | 16:20 |
| Umeaboy | Yiiiikes! Netgear................. Not the most friendly company..... | 16:21 |
| Umeaboy | At least when it comes to open source code. | 16:21 |
| nicole | Umeaboy: my network is running in kb/s not even mb | 16:21 |
| presiden-nkrj | Umeaboy: this one, http://i.imgur.com/jI8LaZ7.png | 16:21 |
| nicole | probably at 1mbit | 16:21 |
| FoeHammered | I guess I'll go find other means. Sorry to bother you, DarkPsydeLord. | 16:21 |
| BluesKaj | presiden-nkrj, those are your unattended-upgrades, an app which you can remove if you update and upgrade your sources daily | 16:21 |
| AntonMc | How can I remove an ubuntu cdimage mirror? | 16:22 |
| Umeaboy | presiden-nkrj: You COULD update thru the terminal instead. :) | 16:22 |
| Umeaboy | AntonMc: Check the Software Update settings. | 16:22 |
| presiden-nkrj | Umeaboy: yes, hence I want to disable the GUI | 16:22 |
| presiden-nkrj | BluesKaj: Actually, I don't think it's the Software Updater fault, it's just that I have crappy computer that whenever the disk led blinking, everything will slow down. | 16:24 |
| Umeaboy | presiden-nkrj: Run unity-control-center and change the tab to disable the check for Updates. | 16:24 |
| presiden-nkrj | and this Software Updater a main culprit that shows up unintended | 16:24 |
| BluesKaj | presiden-nkrj, when it happens again check in your system monitor for thje processes using up your cpu | 16:25 |
| BluesKaj | unattended presiden-nkrj , they are definitely intended | 16:26 |
| * Umeaboy agrees | 16:28 | |
| perry1 | What's the gnome shortcut for terminal only again? | 16:29 |
| DarkPsydeLord | FoeHammered, oh sorry im at work and sometimes i cant answer fast | 16:30 |
| pokmo | hi | 16:33 |
| perry1 | Hi! | 16:33 |
| pokmo | i'm trying to change my password as someone has just changed it without me noticing. | 16:33 |
| perry1 | uhhhh | 16:33 |
| perry1 | so ask them what they changed it to? | 16:33 |
| pokmo | i've tried sudo passwd and given it a new password. but if i were to use it as my 'current password' after 'passwd', i get an error | 16:33 |
| hosas | ioria: how do you paste-bin a screen-shot ? | 16:34 |
| pokmo | does sudo passwd not effect the change | 16:34 |
| perry1 | Oh | 16:34 |
| perry1 | What error? | 16:34 |
| perry1 | no sudo passwd is right | 16:34 |
| pokmo | passwd: Authentication token manipulation error | 16:34 |
| perry1 | waaa | 16:34 |
| pokmo | i can ssh into the machine | 16:34 |
| perry1 | uh | 16:34 |
| perry1 | Well, if you | 16:34 |
| perry1 | 're sshing in than what password do you use? | 16:34 |
| perry1 | Unless you use keys? | 16:34 |
| pokmo | yes i am | 16:34 |
| perry1 | hmm | 16:34 |
| perry1 | do sudo passwd again | 16:34 |
| pokmo | i have | 16:35 |
| perry1 | and copy paste all output and put it here | 16:35 |
| pokmo | hold on | 16:35 |
| perry1 | K | 16:35 |
| pokmo | if i run 'sudo passwd' do i end up changing the password for 'root' rather? | 16:35 |
| pokmo | i'm trying to change the password for my user account | 16:35 |
| perry1 | oh hold on | 16:36 |
| pokmo | i think it does | 16:36 |
| pokmo | are there ways to change the password for the user account without giving it a current password | 16:36 |
| perry1 | yes | 16:36 |
| perry1 | do sudo passwd <your username> | 16:36 |
| presiden-nkrj | Umeaboy: I'm not using unity (using Gnome currently), but running unity-control-center just launch this window http://i.imgur.com/HnjrCec.png | 16:36 |
| presiden-nkrj | Umeaboy: and I don't see any Update related setting there | 16:37 |
| pokmo | perry1, oh!! | 16:37 |
| pokmo | that did it | 16:37 |
| perry1 | Yay! | 16:37 |
| perry1 | Yea, next time do man <command you are having trouble with> | 16:38 |
| pokmo | perry1, how come this isn't an answer? https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/25779/logged-on-via-ssh-key-can-i-reset-my-account-password | 16:38 |
| xco611 | good dumps shop https://perlbot.pl/p/97axi9 https://pastebin.com/ND0pX6W5 | 16:38 |
| xco611 | good dumps shop https://perlbot.pl/p/97axi9 https://pastebin.com/ND0pX6W5 | 16:38 |
| pokmo | all the answers seem to suggest some physical reset | 16:38 |
| perry1 | uhh | 16:38 |
| perry1 | yea | 16:38 |
| perry1 | that's weird | 16:38 |
| perry1 | Oh! Did the person who had your password use it recently? | 16:38 |
| pokmo | perry1, he has sudo rights. he can log in using keys | 16:38 |
| pokmo | that's like my scenario | 16:38 |
| perry1 | Hmmm | 16:38 |
| pokmo | perry1, in what way? | 16:39 |
| presiden-nkrj | BluesKaj: well, I guess the intend is good, but when I'm in the middle of writing something, and then the software updater shows up, then my machine crash and restarted, it's... :'( | 16:39 |
| perry1 | Well, I guess if it's fixed we shouldn't be complaing xD | 16:39 |
| perry1 | I'm a bit confused though why that worked | 16:39 |
| pokmo | perry1, the fix you suggested? | 16:39 |
| perry1 | Yea | 16:40 |
| Umeaboy | presiden-nkrj: software-properties-gtk is the proper window to open. Sorry. | 16:40 |
| pokmo | i wonder why it wasn't suggested in that post | 16:40 |
| pokmo | maybe you should post your fix | 16:40 |
| BluesKaj | presiden-nkrj, then remove unattended upgrades, you can cover it's use by updating an upgrading with apt in the console every day | 16:40 |
| perry1 | Uhh | 16:40 |
| Umeaboy | presiden-nkrj: Click the Updates tab | 16:41 |
| perry1 | I'm really not sure why that happened, so I prob won't | 16:41 |
| pokmo | perhaps passwd didn't take the LOGIN argument in 2011? | 16:41 |
| Umeaboy | "When there are updates"....... | 16:41 |
| xco611 | https://pastebin.com/ND0pX6W5 => good dumps shops, GET A LAID! | 16:41 |
| Umeaboy | And for security updates as well. | 16:41 |
| pokmo | perry1, according to the man page: "while the superuser may change the password for any account." | 16:42 |
| pokmo | so your fix seems to be quite legit | 16:42 |
| mguy | ufw isn't enable by default on 17.04 desktop? | 16:42 |
| Umeaboy | I guess all dropdown menus should be changed. | 16:42 |
| perry1 | Yea, so running sudo should put you in root which is the superuser.......... wait did you put in a password when you did sudo? | 16:42 |
| akik | pokmo: "sudo passwd" changes root's password | 16:42 |
| Jack_Sparrow__ | ufw no spoken like a true Windows User.. Just kidding | 16:43 |
| bonsaitree | Is there a fix for the network-manager dropping the connection almost 20 times a day, after the 17.04 upgrade? Is there a fix for the screen-tearing problem under 17.04? I've searched the internet, but was not able to find any fixes. Thanks in advance. | 16:43 |
| perry1 | akik sudo passwd <username> changes username's password | 16:43 |
| pokmo | akik, yeah | 16:43 |
| perry1 | see the man page | 16:43 |
| mguy | Jack_Sparrow__: eh? | 16:43 |
| akik | perry1: thanks, i know | 16:43 |
| perry1 | np | 16:43 |
| pokmo | perry1, no | 16:43 |
| Jack_Sparrow__ | mguy, UFW is not enabled by default | 16:43 |
| perry1 | MFW I realize WeeChat has tab completion | 16:43 |
| Umeaboy | presiden-nkrj: Hopefully that'll solve it. | 16:44 |
| perry1 | Can I make weechat play a bell when my name is mentioned? | 16:44 |

| pokmo | perry1, thanks | 16:45 |
| perry1 | No Umeaboy, should I? | 16:45 |
| Umeaboy | perry1: Check. | 16:46 |
| perry1 | NVM it's installed | 16:46 |
| perry1 | lol | 16:46 |
| Umeaboy | OK. | 16:46 |
| Umeaboy | I guess you have to enable that in a submenu then. | 16:46 |
| perry1 | Any ideas where? I know next to nothing about weechat | 16:46 |
| Umeaboy | perry1: Check the help for weechat. | 16:47 |

| perry1 | aww | 16:52 |
| perry1 | that failed | 16:52 |
| mguy | pokmo: which machine can you connect to? I agree the firewall is probably only allowing ssh to certain IP's | 16:52 |
| presiden-nkrj | Umeaboy: ah, but the options is: "Display immediately", "Download automatically", and "Download and install automatically". Should I chose the second option then? | 16:52 |
| perry1 | why isn't /help working in weechat.... | 16:53 |
| A1 | dunno | 16:53 |
| perry1 | mmmmk | 16:53 |
| BluesKaj | presiden-nkrj, don't choose anything, leave them unchecked, apt upgrae and update will take care of that | 16:53 |
| perry1 | brb, hopping to #weechat | 16:54 |
| Umeaboy | presiden-nkrj: Yes. | 16:54 |

| bonsaitree | Is there a fix for the network-manager dropping the connection almost 20 times a day, after the 17.04 upgrade? Is there a fix for the screen-tearing problem under 17.04? I've searched the internet, but was not able to find any fixes. Thanks in advance. | 16:55 |
| presiden-nkrj | well, to be precise, I don't want to have a sudden slow down when doing something important | 16:55 |

| MiguelFuller | can someone answer my question on the forum https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2361258 | 16:56 |
| A1 | for some reason, I really like 14.04 | 16:56 |
| mguy | A1: I get lots of glitches with it | 16:56 |
| Umeaboy | What happens to one person with one computer might not happen to you on your computer. | 16:56 |
| mguy | A1: especially with 2 monitors, running a video on one the other will blink etc | 16:57 |
| pavlos | presiden-nkrj: you may have an update-notifier checked in the startup applications | 16:57 |
| BluesKaj | !dpkg | presiden-nkrj | 16:57 |
| ubottu | presiden-nkrj: dpkg is the Debian package maintenance system, which together with apt forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. | 16:57 |
| A1 | ah | 16:57 |
| Umeaboy | The only problem I have with 17.04 is that the screen resolution is wacky. | 16:57 |
| A1 | can't you adjust that in settings | 16:57 |
| mguy | Umeaboy: HOW WACKY IS IT | 16:57 |
| mguy | A1: there are settings for resolution and scaling | 16:59 |
| Umeaboy | mguy: Well, if I decide to change to 1920x1080 like I've always used on previous Ubuntu versions it looks more to be 800x600. | 16:59 |
| === Fentanyl1 is now known as Fentanyl | ||
| Umeaboy | So everything is enlarged. | 16:59 |
| mguy | Umeaboy: Very odd | 16:59 |
| Umeaboy | And my maximum resolution is above 4K. | 16:59 |
| Umeaboy | And that's set as standard, but also doesn't feel anyway near that. | 16:59 |
| mguy | Lots of quirks to be had with 4k still. shame | 17:00 |
| A1 | yep | 17:00 |
| Umeaboy | The previous Ubuntu versions doesn't have these kind of problems. | 17:01 |
| A1 | I think that anything over 4k is unreasonable | 17:01 |
| Umeaboy | So Wayland is a bit off. | 17:01 |
| mguy | A1: 4k/5k are nice are large screens (22-27") | 17:01 |
| pavlos | Umeaboy: maybe you dont have the correct video driver ... sudo lshw -c display | 17:02 |
| A1 | mguy i still think that if you have a screen over 4k it's for bragging rights | 17:03 |
| mguy | Or you like really easy to read nicely rendered text | 17:03 |
| SchrodingersScat | need to play my animus | 17:03 |

| Umeaboy | pavlos: https://pastebin.ca/3812852 | 17:05 |
| presiden-nkrj | BluesKaj: hm... I think I'll be going with your suggestion, by doing apt update & upgrade manually via terminal. But is there a way to uninstall this "Software Updater" GUI program completely? I try uninstall unattended-upgrades package but this program still exist. | 17:05 |
| Umeaboy | And NO, I absolutely refuse to use anything proprietary. | 17:05 |
| Umeaboy | nouveau has been working fine until 17.04 was installed. | 17:06 |
| Umeaboy | If that's the driver that's causing this issue that is. | 17:06 |
| presiden-nkrj | pavlos: ah, also I didn't see any update-notifier in the list of "Startup Application". It's just bluetooth, ssh-gnome, and welcome something. | 17:07 |
| xxx1 | s | 17:09 |
| A1 | what does removing "splash quiet" from line GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT do in file /etc/default/grub | 17:09 |
| A1 | at startup? | 17:10 |
| JackSparrow_ | A1 lets you watch as it boots | 17:10 |
| A1 | watch what? | 17:10 |
| A1 | verbose output ? | 17:10 |
| JackSparrow_ | The boot process, usually looking for errors, | 17:10 |
| nolsen | Um, how to diagnose why some of my snap apps show a black screen? Example: https://cloud.nolsen.xyz/s/vBw7LAgByemYVVG | 17:11 |
| A1 | for debugging? | 17:11 |
| pavlos | presiden-nkrj: I think the Software Updater calls update-manager. Maybe you could remove update-manager | 17:11 |
| presiden-nkrj | pavlos: oh, okay. | 17:12 |
| Fentanyl | I have an encrypted Home-Folder. When I delete my Account, will it disappear forever? | 17:13 |
| presiden-nkrj | pavlos: it also removes ubuntu-gnome-desktop*, is this a bad thing? | 17:13 |
| presiden-nkrj | unless that's just the, uh, what's it called, meta package or something. | 17:14 |
| pavlos | presiden-nkrj: I think it is a meta package but hope someone else can confirm this | 17:15 |
| JackSparrow_ | Thats a bad thing | 17:15 |
| OneM_Industries | So. I have a couple old CDs that should have stuff on them, but for some reason, they are showing up as empty when I try to mount them. Any suggestions? | 17:15 |
| JackSparrow_ | In mint I have updater icon in bottom right of screen, just called update manager, try running that | 17:15 |

| Verevet_dark | hello | 17:16 |
| presiden-nkrj | JackSparrow_: uh, I wanna uninstall update-manager actually, not run it | 17:17 |
| JackSparrow_ | Run the updater and set it to Dont break .. that is actually an option in my updater | 17:17 |

| gogeta | bonsaitree, what you got wifi droping? | 17:31 |
| lotuspsychje | bonsaitree: try previous kernel, to see what happens | 17:31 |
| bonsaitree | gogeta, I get sudden drops of the internet connection, while browsing for an example. But what i did notice now is that when it drops i am not logged out from IRC, so that may indicate that only some type of traffic is getting blocked or idk. | 17:33 |
| lotuspsychje | bonsaitree: while you play with wifi, do a tail -f /var/log/syslog to see errors live | 17:33 |
| Umeaboy | bonsaitree: Maybe the signal is not strong. | 17:33 |
| gogeta | bonsaitree, try this and restarting echo options iwlwifi bt_coex_active=0 swcrypto=1 11n_disable=8 | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/iwlwifi.conf | 17:34 |
| bonsaitree | Umeaboy:Nope, because other Windows machines on the network are doing pretty well. | 17:34 |
| Umeaboy | OK. | 17:34 |
| gogeta | bonsaitree, seems it is a ussie with 4.10 | 17:34 |
| Umeaboy | I'm using iwlwifi myself, but I don't get that proble, | 17:35 |
| Umeaboy | problem | 17:35 |

| gogeta | bonsaitree, should stop the random drops | 17:36 |
| bonsaitree | gogeta:Okay, i will try that first, if that does not work i will try with different kernels. | 17:37 |

| ducasse | blunderful: i'm curious if it would work on 14.04 with fglrx... | 17:47 |

| RonWhoCares | I found the flock of Canadian Geese Grazing. I just filmed them for 17 minutes. I am going to make a 15 minute video with this. | 17:47 |

| RonWhoCares | lotuspsychje: - this was background information | 17:48 |
| RonWhoCares | The file is saying 'Invalid Media Type". Is there a away to repair the file | 17:48 |
| blunderful | ducasse: I think so, but I'd rather not go that route. I had another computer with HD 3450 with fglrx and I didn't like it too much. Would rather stick with open source drivers | 17:48 |
| ducasse | blunderful: just a suggestion, i don't really have any other ideas atm | 17:50 |
| lotuspsychje | blunderful: can you try this as a test? https://cubethethird.wordpress.com/2016/06/14/eliminate-screen-tearing-with-amd-gpu-on-ubuntu/ | 17:50 |

| lucifermorningst | Hello | 17:54 |
| Makon | lotuspsychje, it simply shows 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. | 17:55 |

| Makon | but how can i be sure nothing went wrong | 17:55 |
| blunderful | lotuspsychje: Same appearance. | 17:55 |
| lotuspsychje | blunderful: did you reboot? another test might be installing amdgpu as test? | 17:56 |
| blunderful | lotuspsychje: Yes, rebooted. I could try that, but I don't thinnk amdgpu supports my card. | 17:56 |
| bonsaitree | gogeta, Wow, after the .conf file edit that you suggested, i got 50 Mbit/s download speed on speedtest, something that i was not able to get for a long time. | 17:56 |
| bonsaitree | What is this option: bt_coex_active=0 for, located in the iwlwifi.conf file? | 17:57 |
| blunderful | blunderful: Will the one from oibaf's ppa do? | 17:57 |
| lucifermorningst | hey guys i updated my ubuntu kernel 4.8.0-xxx bt i'm unable to login 'kernel panic' now im using my previous kernel any suggestions ? | 17:57 |
| lotuspsychje | lucifermorningst: wich ubuntu version? | 17:58 |
| blunderful | lotuspsychje: Will the one from oibaf's ppa do? | 17:58 |
| lucifermorningst | current 4.8.0-49-generic update to 51 then kernel panic | 17:58 |
| lotuspsychje | blunderful: you can test it on your system, tryout a few things before you !bug | 17:58 |
| lotuspsychje | blunderful: if non-lts and lts you cant get it straight on different driver versions, i would consider a !bug | 17:59 |
| blunderful | lotuspsychje: Okay | 17:59 |
| blunderful | lotuspsychje: Oh also, it's an iMac, so that probably complicates things a bit. | 18:02 |
| lotuspsychje | blunderful: alot of users got ubuntu working nicely on macs, depending wich mac of course | 18:03 |

| lotuspsychje | blunderful: as a test i would try 14.04 also as ducasse suggested, just to see what it does | 18:04 |
| blunderful | lotuspsychje: with fglrx? | 18:04 |
| lotuspsychje | blunderful: with whatever works | 18:05 |
| Bashing-om | blunderful: I come in here late, but on a 4x ATI card there is no FGLRX support anymore . | 18:06 |
| blunderful | lotuspsychje: Ah ok. Also, I had Ubuntu 16.04 working before, but then I installed Mac OS, then reinstalled Ubuntu, and now it doesn't work. So I'm guess I'm trying to figure out what changed... | 18:06 |
| blunderful | Bashing-om: ah thanks. | 18:06 |
| lotuspsychje | blunderful: did you test 16.04.2 iso? | 18:06 |
| blunderful | lotuspsychje: yes, both times | 18:07 |
| blunderful | I did install refind between the installs | 18:07 |

| ducasse | Faisal12: ask in #freenode | 19:59 |
| LeoTheNarwhal | PCatinean, well you could check if you have got an IP adres from your DHCP server | 19:59 |
| LeoTheNarwhal | PCatinean, can you verify that you have obtained an IP adres ? | 20:00 |
| Taose | Just tells me to download hplip which I already have | 20:00 |
| IntelCore | it's a 2014 driver on HP support. may be Windows only | 20:00 |
| PCatinean | LeoTheNarwhal i have 192.168.88.210 on the interface I mentioned earlier | 20:00 |
| Taose | Which tells me "deinstall ok config-files" | 20:01 |
| PCatinean | That's about it, working on Android though | 20:01 |
| Taose | (which after some research means hplip has been deprecated somehow) | 20:01 |
| LeoTheNarwhal | PCatinean, do you know the address of your default gateway too?, try to ping your default gateway and see if it works | 20:01 |
| IntelCore | unless linus installed at purchase,,, | 20:01 |
| PCatinean | I don't know it, tried with 1 in the end did not work | 20:01 |
| Taose | Nah, windows 8 was installed at purchase, never have I formatted a machine so hard and so fast before... | 20:02 |
| LeoTheNarwhal | PCatinean, well lets skip that and try to ping 8.8.8.8 (its a google server just for testing) | 20:02 |
| IntelCore | i dunno why if hp would supply sets drivers for both or have a linux page | 20:03 |
| Taose | that's what hplip is apparently | 20:03 |
| PCatinean | LeoTheNarwhal nop, everything I ping has dest hist unreachable | 20:03 |

| PCatinean | Including presumed gateways | 20:03 |
| PCatinean | I got those from.route -n | 20:03 |
| lvn_mate | I thought hplip was just an interface to use the printer, rather than using their own osftware (which doesn't work on Linux anyway) | 20:04 |
| qwerkus | hi, i could use some help with apache password protection. I protected a <directory> in the virtualhost conf file of apache2, and it works well if I access the site over its domain name. Though accessing the site directly over its ip seems to circumvent the password protection. How do I fix this ? | 20:04 |
| LeoTheNarwhal | PCatinean, can you give a list with all network routes ? | 20:04 |
| Taose | apparently not lvn_mate | 20:04 |
| PCatinean | Ki da hard to type by phone | 20:05 |

| === nolsen is now known as Apple | ||

| PCatinean | wlp3s0 | 20:06 |
| PCatinean | And some strange destinations | 20:07 |
| PCatinean | Different interfaces apparently | 20:07 |
| PCatinean | Why does it work on my phone? | 20:07 |
| Taose | That's true intelcore, that's why they have HP Linux Imaging and Printing (hplip) | 20:07 |
| PCatinean | Instantly | 20:07 |
| LeoTheNarwhal | PCatinean, yeah i guess its some configuration error, or your router blocking uknown mac address or something like that | 20:08 |
| PCatinean | Okay... | 20:08 |
| LeoTheNarwhal | PCatinean, so you could check the config in your router | 20:08 |
| PCatinean | How? | 20:08 |
| LeoTheNarwhal | PCatinean, well can others (friends or visitor or so) use your internet? | 20:09 |
| Taose | http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/models/deskjet_aio/deskjet_f2200_series.html | 20:09 |
| Taose | This says that in theory it's still supported (partially) | 20:09 |
| IntelCore | I do see a 2210 driver hplip | 20:09 |
| LeoTheNarwhal | PCatinean, PCatinean or do they encouter problems too ? | 20:10 |

| PCatinean | I just got here | 20:11 |
| PCatinean | Tablet not working either | 20:13 |
| PCatinean | As in it connects to the network but no internet | 20:13 |
| LeoTheNarwhal | PCatinean, wel it could be mac filtering in the router or it could be the router (or some other device) handing out wrong ip adresses | 20:15 |
| Jack_Sparrow__ | Did you try 8.8.8.8 is ipv4 | 20:15 |
| Jack_Sparrow__ | and 8.8.4.4 for alt | 20:15 |
| Jack_Sparrow__ | set ipv6 to ignore etc | 20:16 |
| LeoTheNarwhal | PCatinean, you could try to log into the router and verify if mac filtering or something like that is enabled by browsing to the gateway ip on your android phone | 20:16 |
| IntelCore | read far as I know.. hplip re-install, and that 2210 test it | 20:17 |
| erto | can anyone help me to detect CPU temp (with lm-sensors or something else) with ubuntu 16.04, mobo msi b350m mortar (Super I/O r6637) and CPU ryzen 5 1600? sensors-detect doesn't detect anything | 20:17 |
| Taose | Yeah I'm coming to the same conclusion intel after doing a check | 20:17 |
| Taose | Looks like certain things were removed by a program being uninstalled somewhere | 20:18 |
| IntelCore | Taose - win printer | 20:18 |
| Taose | Though the last time anything was removed was during an update | 20:19 |
| IntelCore | means it no post script or advanced stuff on the printer | 20:19 |
| IntelCore | all from driver and os | 20:19 |
| IntelCore | poss update broke old driver | 20:20 |
| Taose | ...geh | 20:20 |
| Taose | Printer detected | 20:20 |
| Taose | But No scanners available | 20:20 |
| Taose | I just installed hplip in its entirety XD | 20:21 |
| Taose | I have plenty of room | 20:21 |
| IntelCore | find software to use to scan with | 20:21 |
| Taose | I use the inbuilt one usually | 20:21 |
| Taose | (as in the one that comes with ubuntu) | 20:21 |
| IntelCore | gimps? | 20:21 |
| Taose | no, simple scan | 20:21 |
| Jack_Sparrow__ | Simple Scan here too | 20:22 |
| anddam | I'm able to manually connect with wpa_supplicant, I added the stanza into /etc/network/interfaces and I can connect via ifup, yet I have rfkill softblocking the wlan at boot and it's not storing the status like it should be from what I understand from systemd-rfkill man page | 20:22 |
| Jack_Sparrow__ | 3.20 | 20:22 |
| IntelCore | detected, but it may run tha scan? | 20:22 |
| Taose | ... | 20:22 |
| Taose | Problem occurred while installing software "libperl5.22 5.22.2-3" | 20:23 |
| Taose | Which appears to be the main issue at the moment | 20:25 |

| anddam | I see the stored values in /var/lib/systemd/rfkill changing when I unblock wifi, and that's where the storage is supposed to be | 20:28 |

| IntelCore | Taose ? 2200-2224 try | 20:30 |
| IntelCore | Do you use/need iwlwifi for your card? If not, perhaps blacklisting it would do - though if it's active, I'd guess you may need it. | 20:33 |
| IntelCore | the reply said .. | 20:33 |

| webphil | hey all. For some reason, my ubuntu box is failing to boot. It's been working fine for months, if not years - so I'm not sure what's up with it. It just says select a boot device - and when I select the right one, it asks me to select boot device again (it doesnt even reboot before re-asking). I can get into the ubuntu OS via my mobo's UEFI interface & telling it to execute the EFI shell | 20:40 |
| webphil | anybody got any ideas of where to start debugging this? | 20:41 |
| Jack_Sparrow__ | Is it dual win box? | 20:41 |
| MiguelFuller | what is a good way to install xubuntu on a pen drive from windows that is clean | 20:41 |
| webphil | Jack_Sparrow__: No, just ubuntu | 20:42 |
| IntelCore | it doesnt see | 20:43 |
| Jordan_U | webphil: Boot from an Ubuntu LiveUSB and pastebin the output of "sudo efibootmgr". My guess is that somehow the UEFI boot entry for Ubuntu was lost. If so, you can either restore it or configure things so that the drive can be booted without a UEFI boot entry. | 20:43 |
| Jack_Sparrow__ | MiguelFuller, http://www.thewindowsclub.com/top-3-free-iso-burners-windows-7 | 20:43 |
| webphil | Jordan_U: Is there a difference between booting via a liveusb and doing that vs booting into the installed ubuntu instance via EFI shell? | 20:44 |
| IntelCore | yes | 20:44 |
| IntelCore | << groceries | 20:45 |
| Jordan_U | webphil: Yes. It's much easier to fix grub from the installed system, so you should ignore what I said and just boot your installed Ubuntu :) | 20:45 |
| webphil | Jordan_U, awesome, saves me download a live USB (: the output of efibootmgr -v is; Timeout 1 second. Boot Order: 0001. Boot001* UEFI: SanDisk PciRoot/...USB....GPT....BO (truncated but I hopefully have everything important because I'm reading it from a different screen) | 20:46 |
| ChadTaljaardt | can anyone help me debug this issue :/ | 20:47 |
| ChadTaljaardt | sorry wrong channel :) | 20:47 |
| Jordan_U | wepThere should be an entry titled "Ubuntu" there. Running "sudo grub-install" (with no other arguments) should add it back. | 20:47 |
| === paulo is now known as SevenSeth | ||
| webphil | Jordan_U: ok, just ran that and now efibootmgr's output is; boot order: 0000,0001. Boot0000* ubuntu .... \shimx64.efi. Boot0001...same as before | 20:49 |
| webphil | I'll give it a reboot and see if that does the trick | 20:49 |
| webphil | looks like its booting! :D | 20:49 |
| webphil | Thanks Jordon_U! | 20:50 |
| webphil | Any ideas why it decided to eat the ubuntu entry out of the blue? | 20:50 |
| === masos is now known as Guest55852 | ||
| YankDownUnder | webphil, Power outtage? BIOS/EFI reset? | 20:51 |
| Jordan_U | webphil: No. Maybe there was a boot firmware update that didn't preserve the entries. Windows also writes its bootlaoder to \EFI\boot\bootx64.efi on the EFI System Partition, so that it will boot even with no UEFI entry. Most distros consider writing to that path to be unfriendly to other OSs that might have their own bootloader there. | 20:52 |
| webphil | AFAIK, there wasn't a power outage - it's not like any clocks in my house got reset or anything on the day the server died. BIOS/EFI reset - maybe - but nothing directly triggered by me I dont think | 20:52 |
| webphil | I don't have windows or an other OS on the server | 20:53 |
| Jordan_U | webphil: If a problem doesn't effect Windows then boot firmware manufacturers tend not to notice it or put a high priority on fixing it. | 20:53 |
| webphil | so I guess best guess is some UEFI update nuked the settings or something | 20:53 |
| YankDownUnder | webphil, On my Ubuntu server, I had the same - and it WAS after a "firmware update" - but luckily I wasn't in panic mode and just updated grub...(luckily) | 20:53 |
| webphil | YankDownUnder: I'm just happy this is my home test server and not a production box in a remote DC somewhere . Glad it was just a grub-install and nothing too crazy to fix it (: | 20:54 |
| Taose | IntelCore, hplip installs them all. | 20:55 |
| Taose | But the problem isn't that at the moment. It's perl | 20:55 |
| IntelCore | yes bug | 20:55 |
| YankDownUnder | webphil, Oh yeah...oh yeah...I'm always paranoid about the remotes I have...distance can be both a blessing and a curse... | 20:55 |
| IntelCore | get the one for ubuntu, after remove what is now there | 20:56 |
| IntelCore | may get off usb/dvd install | 20:57 |
| IntelCore | move tha file | 20:57 |
| Taose | Well I got a slightly different issue now | 21:00 |
| Taose | I followed Reuben's work around | 21:00 |
| Taose | and that went through fine | 21:00 |
| Taose | So I went to simple scan | 21:01 |
| Taose | and it told me no scanners were found | 21:01 |
| Taose | click close | 21:01 |
| Taose | Tells me to fix error by downloading drivers | 21:01 |
| Taose | that goes through successfully | 21:01 |
| Taose | restart simple scan | 21:01 |
| IntelCore | k.. tha orig versins on install disk . not debian | 21:01 |
| Taose | and back to telling me no were found | 21:01 |
| Taose | I don't have an install disk | 21:01 |
| Taose | All I have is what's in the ubuntu repository | 21:02 |
| IntelCore | when you iso 16.04 | 21:02 |
| Taose | That just grabs the necessary files from the repository | 21:02 |
| Taose | and it appears that the error has been present for quite a while in 16.04 too | 21:03 |
| IntelCore | the iso on my drive is all the files to put on disk to install with | 21:03 |
| Taose | Point is: The file on iso won't fix it, because it has the same error | 21:04 |
| IntelCore | it should not be the debian? | 21:04 |
| Taose | it is. | 21:04 |
| Taose | Feel free to check | 21:04 |
| Taose | Ubuntu is pretty much a reskinned debian at any rate. | 21:05 |
| Taose | so all debian stuff works on ubuntu | 21:05 |
| IntelCore | 2200 to 2224 was that one driver | 21:05 |
| Taose | That's included in hplip | 21:05 |
| Taose | I already have them | 21:05 |

| Umeaboy | Virtualbox works neither with 1.1.18 or 1.1.22. | 22:04 |
| Umeaboy | blackware: Hi! I'm Kristoffer. How may I be of assistance? | 22:05 |
| ChaiTRex | Umeaboy: VirtualBox 1.1.18? | 22:05 |
| Taose | Another issue Umeaboy ;) | 22:05 |

| bjrohan | Hi all. I have a brand new laptop with a 1TB drive, my old system has a 350GB drive running Mint. What is the best way to mirror that old drive to the new including all partitions that the new system will "work" | 22:36 |
| bjrohan | would dd do this? | 22:36 |
| bjrohan | I don't want to save anything on the new system ie the preinstalled windoze, recovery etc. | 22:37 |
| Umeaboy | Did you do perform a backup on the older harddrive? | 22:39 |
| Umeaboy | bjrohan: ^^ | 22:39 |
| bjrohan | Umeaboy, I have not, however I can, as I have another 1TB that I can back it up to | 22:39 |
| Umeaboy | Otherwize..... I personally prefer to just install fresh. | 22:41 |
| F12 | Hello | 22:43 |
| leftyfb | bjrohan: dd will work fine. As will clonezilla | 22:43 |
| croz | Is there a slim and portable (lightweight) laptop designed for Ubuntu that runs DOTA 2 (video game)? I'm looking at the System76 Oryx, but that thing weighs 5.5 lbs and has a 2 hour battery life. | 22:44 |
| bjrohan | Umeaboy, leftyfb When I said "my" computer it's my fathers, and I don;t know what programs he has, so I would prefer NOT to do a new install and then have to listen to him calling me up because he can't find a program he used to have | 22:46 |
| bjrohan | :-) | 22:46 |
| leftyfb | oh, you want to keep what's on the old one | 22:47 |
| leftyfb | yeah, that's not going to be worth your time | 22:47 |
| leftyfb | sorry, new one | 22:47 |
| leftyfb | bjrohan: actually, i'm a bit confused... | 22:48 |
| bjrohan | leftyfb, I simply would like to copy everything (bit by bit) from old drive (hooked up via usb adapter) the the new internal 1TB so that the laptop boots just like it was his old comp | 22:48 |
| Umeaboy | croz: Check out this one: https://www.crowdsupply.com/purism/librem-15 | 22:48 |
| Umeaboy | :) | 22:48 |
| croz | Their ship time is like a month or longer. | 22:49 |
| leftyfb | bjrohan: use dd | 22:49 |
| croz | I checked them out. | 22:49 |
| bcx | Using Gnome 3.20, it seems that processes launched by keybindings (uses gnome-settings-daemon) do not get env variables set by xinit. Can someone confirm ? Know a wrokaround ? Thanks | 22:49 |
| leftyfb | bjrohan: what version of ubuntu is he running now? | 22:49 |
| bjrohan | It's mint, I don't know the version | 22:49 |
| bjrohan | I put that on vs ubuntu, as it looks more like Windows that he's used all his life | 22:50 |
| leftyfb | bjrohan: you know this is #ubuntu and not #linuxmint-help right? | 22:50 |
| bjrohan | yes, but I know at the very base, for something like cloning, all debian based work the same :-) | 22:50 |
| leftyfb | bjrohan: either way, as I said originally, use dd or clonezilla | 22:50 |
| Lachezar | Hey all. Trying to upgrade 16.10 to 17.04, but I see +114 packages, noticeably 'build-essentials', 'dpkg-dev', 'g++, 'g++-6' and 'pkg-config', which strikes me as a set that is wrong for a common-use desktop. | 22:53 |
| Lachezar | Is there a way to find out what pulls all these new packages? | 22:53 |
| leftyfb | Lachezar: not really. Also, I would recommend sticking with LTS versions of ubuntu which are supported for 5 years as opposed to 18 months for non-LTS. | 22:54 |
| Lachezar | leftyfb: I'm not using LTS anyway, but upgrading pulls 114 new packages, which seem to be developer-oriented. | 22:54 |
| \9 | yeah those are developer packages | 22:55 |
| leftyfb | not really | 22:55 |
| leftyfb | they're required if you want to install anything from source | 22:55 |
| Lachezar | So how come a distro upgrade pulls in those? | 22:55 |
| Umeaboy | Lachezar: I think that depends on if you have Backports enabled or not. | 22:58 |
| Lachezar | Q2: After migrating, will there be any log that I can check to see what was added, so that I can try and remove them (and see what actually pulled them in)? | 22:58 |
| newlinux | Hi what ubuntu verison is stable? | 22:59 |
| Lachezar | Umeaboy: I do have backports enabled, but I do not have build-essentials installed. | 22:59 |
| Umeaboy | Lachezar: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LinuxLogFiles | 22:59 |
| Umeaboy | newlinux: Depends on your computer. | 22:59 |
| leftyfb | build-essentials is not part of backports | 23:00 |
| Lachezar | newlinux: Any. | 23:00 |
| Umeaboy | But I'd say 16.04 LTS is. | 23:00 |
| newlinux | thank you | 23:00 |
| Lachezar | Hm. Wasn't there an 'apt-get why package-name' command? | 23:01 |
| Umeaboy | Just set Ubuntu to only offer upgrades with LTS support and you'll be fine. | 23:01 |
| Umeaboy | Lachezar: Nope. | 23:01 |
| yeetfimt | Hello, I was looking for a suggestion for buying a low priced, sleek looking, ultra portable, good battery life and performance GNU+Linux compatible laptop (https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/6b6qmw/suggestion_for_a_low_priced_sleek_case_design/) | 23:01 |
| Umeaboy | It's not working here. | 23:01 |
| ikonia | newlinux: the ones on ubuntu.com are | 23:01 |
| leftyfb | yeetfimt: you're asking for a lot | 23:01 |
| Aginor | yeetfimt: spamming all linux related channels might not be the best way to get suggestions :) | 23:01 |
| Umeaboy | yeetfimt: Check at pricegrabber.com or pricespy.co.uk. | 23:02 |
| Lachezar | Ugh. It was 'aptitude why ...' but aptitude has been lost (pun intended). | 23:02 |
| Umeaboy | Preferably the latter. | 23:02 |
| Umeaboy | yeetfimt: Check out Librem 15. :) | 23:03 |
| Umeaboy | Next computer I'll buy is going to be that one. | 23:03 |
| Umeaboy | A kernel free from proprietary blobs...... Yaaaaaaaay! | 23:04 |
| Ichimusai | Wouldn't that be nice... | 23:04 |
| * Lachezar wonders which lazy dev put a dependency on 'build-essentials'… | 23:06 | |
| Lachezar | I guess I'll find out after upgrading. Hope it's not one of those Pidgin stupidities (pulling Unity into Xubuntu). | 23:06 |
| yeetfimt | thanks, leftyfb, Aginor, Umeaboy for your advice and being nice.:) | 23:08 |
| yeetfimt | * :) | 23:08 |

| croz | Is there any security advantage to using Ubuntu over MacOS? I see a lot of threads on Reddit for Ubuntu over Windows AND Mac where they conflate things, but are there any advantages with Ubuntu over Mac only? | 23:16 |
| PlasmaStar | croz: God yes. Ubuntu is free. | 23:17 |
| croz | Not talking about price. Talking about security. | 23:18 |
| Umeaboy | croz: Not really font size. | 23:18 |
| Umeaboy | Windows in general. | 23:18 |
| croz | But I do appreciate that difference of course, but at this point I'm already an Apple whore looking to learn more about security advantages. | 23:18 |
| croz | Umeaboy what issues do you have with ur 4k and ubuntu? | 23:18 |
| Umeaboy | Unity itself is fine, but the windows I open looks to have a higher resolution. | 23:18 |
| croz | I have the newest Macbook Pro with touchbar and maxed out specs, but Linux and the new MBP don't play nice. | 23:19 |
| croz | Umeaboy damn i had issues with that on my other macbook pro. thought it was a hardware issue. | 23:19 |
| Umeaboy | croz: Sorry...... MBP? | 23:19 |
| croz | Macbook Pro | 23:19 |
| Umeaboy | OK. | 23:19 |
| Umeaboy | Nope. It isn't. | 23:20 |
| Umeaboy | At least for me it isn't. | 23:20 |
| Umeaboy | 16.10 works just fine when it comes to resolution. | 23:20 |
| Umeaboy | And now I'm runnin 17.04. | 23:20 |
| Umeaboy | xrandr -s 0 will reset your graphics settings. It didn't change anything for me. | 23:21 |
| Umeaboy | I'm thinking about deleting the Xorg.conf so that a new one will be generated. | 23:22 |
| croz | I'm thinking about buying a System76 Oryx which has nice hardware and comes shipped with Ubuntu (16.04LTS or 17.04), but I'm not nuts about the 5.5lb weigh. Being able to play DOTA 2 is a must. Any ideas Umeaboy? | 23:22 |
| YankDownUnder | croz, Linux (nearly any version) can be so locked down the locks can have locks with locks. On macOS, you can do the same, but it takes a bit of savvy...but bear in mind that macOS *is* a *nix flavour...but for ease and software? Linux... | 23:22 |
| kittykitty | im writing a C++ program and it crashes with sigsegv on ubuntu 16.04 but not on 16.10. Works on arch too. Ive tried updating the graphics lib used, gcc to the same as on 16.10 too. What else could be causing this strange behaviour? Maybe libc++? Theyre the same on both... | 23:22 |
| Umeaboy | croz: Ask the developers of DOTA to realease full source code to you so that you can make a customized build. :) | 23:24 |
| croz | haha that's WAY over my head | 23:24 |
| Umeaboy | Not really. You can always learn. :) | 23:24 |
| Umeaboy | Unless you're lazy. | 23:24 |
| croz | im just looking to jump into ubuntu but want a sleek and light design like my macbook pros, but i want it to be able to run DOTA 2 maxed out. | 23:24 |
| Umeaboy | :) | 23:24 |
| croz | price isn't an issue | 23:25 |
| kittykitty | im using libprocps and the dev package is a version behind on 16.04 is all i can think os | 23:25 |
| kittykitty | *of | 23:25 |
| Umeaboy | What's the maximum weight you be OK with? | 23:25 |
| YankDownUnder | What is DOTA? | 23:25 |
| Umeaboy | YankDownUnder: A game 1 person plays. | 23:25 |
| Umeaboy | :) | 23:25 |
| croz | well this mbp weighs 3lbs. so hopefully around there and has great portablility focused dimensions | 23:25 |
| YankDownUnder | Umeaboy, Ah. Right. So it's not HL2 or Black Mesa Source...(not a game, then) :) | 23:26 |
| croz | YankDownUnder here's some gameplay. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Doc_vYSZc9c | 23:26 |

| Umeaboy | I even helped translate it into Swedish. | 23:27 |
| Umeaboy | :) | 23:27 |
| croz | never heard of that one. but at this point its safe to say DOTA 2 is my game of choice. got me off madden, bf, cod, and other games. | 23:28 |
| YankDownUnder | Coolbeans...not my style, but looks nice...looks "heavy"... | 23:28 |
| croz | heavy? | 23:28 |
| Umeaboy | Anyway..... Gotta go. | 23:28 |
| YankDownUnder | croz, "Heavy" meaning there more to it than just "shoot kill shoot kill!" | 23:28 |
| YankDownUnder | :) | 23:28 |
| croz | oh hell yes teamwork is vital to winning | 23:29 |

| croz | i have a Radeon Pro 460 with 4GB on here | 23:31 |

| croz | macos, linux isn't compatible on here yet. i'd be stuck without sound, crappy wifi, no bluetooth, and other issues. | 23:31 |
| croz | thats why im looking to buy a laptop that is sleek, portable, has fully supported hardware, but can run dota 2 with maxed out specs or close to it | 23:32 |
