vithello. Anyone could tell me how to deactivacte the most recent software checkbox in Ubuntu mate boutique ?08:27
ouroumov_mwhat?08:42
vitUbuntu mate boutique was on version 16.04. I have clicked to get most recent softwares and now it is on 17.10 package source !08:50
ouroumov_vit, this is normal08:52
vitok, but i wanted to get back to standard install, so I have downgraded ubuntu mate welcome to 16.04.1. That's ok, but the checkbox is again in grey and not clickable... Thats not important. I will handle all that with synaptic if I need to...08:55

monahwhich didnt exist beforew14:52
KTradoh ok well didn't see this mentioned in the other post but they want you to uninstall the driver you compiled so do: sudo apt purge rtlwifi-new-dkms then reboot. Then follow the instructions here to uninstall the one you compiled. Then reinstall rtlwifi-new-dkms14:52

monahok14:53
KTradreboot before each new step though14:53
monahso i delete first?14:53
KTradHopefully that will clean out any remnants. If not my only other advice would be to reinstall and then just install from the PPA14:53
KTradsudo apt purge rtlwifi-new-dkms  first14:54
monahi did sudo..14:54
KTradthen follow instructions in that link I just posted to uninstall the one you tried compiling14:54
monahand now which steps u said to follow?14:54

KTradwhen did you get that error message monah?15:31
KTradIf you got it at the: sudo apt-get install --reinstall rtlwifi-new-dkms linux-firmware that makes sense because rtlwifi-new-dkms is no longer installed15:32
KTradinstead do: sudo apt install rtlwifi-new-dkms linux-firmware15:32

KTradseems to be an issue15:51
monahok15:52
KTradif that doesn't work monah I'm all out of ideas other than a fresh install and directly installing from the PPA. It is possible there are some remnants from when you tried to compile yourself sticking around somewhere.15:55
monahok thank you15:58
