[00:13] <micProblem> can someone help?
[01:13] <Golfgeo> Hi all: I'm having issues with kdenlive and am looking to revert to an older version that's still in the repros. Since both have the same name: How to I install version 4:15.12.3-0ubuntu1 and not version 4:17.04+git201705191233~ubuntu16.04.1
[03:04] <Calif> Hello,
[03:05] <Calif> I'm running xubuntu 16.0.4. I'm having some issues with my NIC, I know it's related to the interface name change (enxxx etc)
[03:05] <Calif> I edited the interfaces file and manaully assigned a static ip and I set it to auto, but a reboot doesn't bring the interface up
[03:05] <bazhang> thats the systemd way
[03:06] <bazhang> the enp0s etc etc
[03:06] <Calif> I also tried sudo ifup enp3s0 and I get cannot assign requested address
[03:06] <Calif> I think I have the settings right
[03:07] <Calif> It's probably also relevant that the MAC address on this machine is pooched
[03:07] <Calif> It
[03:07] <Calif> It's a laptop, and it somehow lost the hardware address years ago, to which I resolve simply by setting a mac address manually
[03:08] <Calif> I tried to define it in the interfaces file, "hwaddr ether xx:xx:xx:xx:xx" but no change
[03:09] <Calif> I see all zero's for the mac on an ipconfig -a
[03:10] <Calif> Is the syntax for the hardware address right? Is that enough do you think to throw off the ability to bring up the interface?
[08:50] <libussa> hey, I'm on 16.04, I have a bluetooth speaker I'm trying to pair with my laptop, but no joy...How can I debug that?

[15:04] <likemindead> What's the terminal command to show what version of Xubuntu I'm running?
[15:05] <akxwi-dave> lsb_release -a
[15:05] <likemindead> Thanks.
[15:05] <akxwi-dave> np :-)
[15:06] <likemindead> This old Lenovo 3000 N100 just keeps on truckin' thanks to Xubuntu!
[16:14] <Dr_Coke> crossover for 21$ for 24 hours at codeweavers.com
[17:14] <Dr_Coke> hello
[17:14] <Dr_Coke> how can I remove a link I made in the menu when I can't see it in the menu editor
[17:14] <Dr_Coke> the whisker menu
[17:15] <Dr_Coke> that is
[17:15] <flocculant> Dr_Coke: remove the .desktop file from .local/share/applications/
[17:15] <diogenes_> Dr_Coke, look for it in /home/$USER/.local/share/applications
[17:15] <flocculant> I think ...
[17:16] <flocculant> yea - I was I thought missing one from there :)
[17:25] <Dr_Coke> thanks
[17:27] <Dr_Coke> Hey flocculant and diogenes_ i removed it
[17:27] <Dr_Coke> but its still in the menu
[17:27] <Dr_Coke> after logging out and back in
[17:27] <diogenes_> Dr_Coke, what is the exact icon name
[17:28] <Dr_Coke> thunderbird
[17:28] <Dr_Coke> Thunderbird
[17:28] <diogenes_> Dr_Coke, look for it in /usr/share/applications
[17:28] <diogenes_> and tell me if it's there
[17:29] <Dr_Coke> no only thunderbird mail is
[17:29] <Dr_Coke> which is good its there
[17:29] <diogenes_> Dr_Coke, then run: find / -type f 2>/dev/null | grep "underbird.desktop"
[17:40] <Dr_Coke> diogenes_, it can't find the right one
[17:40] <Dr_Coke> because what happened is
[17:40] <Dr_Coke> i uninstalled thunderbird
[17:40] <Dr_Coke> from the repos and installed the source one
[17:40] <Dr_Coke> well compiled to a directory
[17:40] <Dr_Coke> and made a link in the menu to it
[17:41] <diogenes_> Dr_Coke, did you run the command?
[17:41] <Dr_Coke> yes
[17:41] <diogenes_> and what was the output?
[17:42] <Dr_Coke> it found it in 3 directories
[17:42] <diogenes_> and did you remove it from those directories?
[17:43] <Dr_Coke> no but i will
[17:43] <diogenes_> so remove it and log out
[17:47] <Dr_Coke> diogenes_,
[17:47] <diogenes_> yes
[17:47] <Dr_Coke> it removed the new entries
[17:47] <Dr_Coke> but the one i wanted gone is still there
[17:47] <diogenes_> Dr_Coke, then sudo apt install menulibre
[17:48] <diogenes_> and try with it
[17:48] <Dr_Coke> ok
[18:14] <irongeeks> Does anyone know if SSH is turned off by default or has it been removed permanently? I checked the status on the services, it says it's dead, inactive and no such directory.
[18:16] <knome> ssh what?
[18:16] <knome> server never was enabled by default
[18:41] <irongeeks> SSH to a Xubuntu PC from a Windows machine... it doesn't appear to be installed as its directory doesn't even exist
[18:41] <knome> yes, that's the ssh server, and as i said, it was never enabled by default
[18:42] <irongeeks> Alrighty..
