[04:43] <winopi> hey
[08:27] <vit> hello. Anyone could tell me how to deactivacte the most recent software checkbox in Ubuntu mate boutique ?
[08:42] <ouroumov_> mwhat?
[08:50] <vit> Ubuntu mate boutique was on version 16.04. I have clicked to get most recent softwares and now it is on 17.10 package source !
[08:52] <ouroumov_> vit, this is normal
[08:55] <vit> ok, 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...
[12:54] <ashokabandla> Hello fellow Ubuntu-Mate Users !
[14:02] <monah> hello room
[14:02] <monah> I just installed ubuntu mate 17.04
[14:02] <monah> but my rtl wifi doesnt work
[14:02] <monah> anyone could help me pls?
[14:10] <Akuli> the steps to fixing this are: 1) find out more details about the wifi device 2) install a driver
[14:10] <Akuli> let's start with 1
[14:10] <Akuli> press ctrl+alt+t to open a terminal, type lsusb and press enter
[14:11] <monah> ok
[14:11] <monah> i did
[14:11] <Akuli> does the wifi card show up there?
[14:11] <Akuli> if you're not sure it's ok
[14:11] <monah> Bus 001 Device 004: ID 0bda:b008 Realtek Semiconductor Corp.
[14:11] <monah> yes
[14:11] <Akuli> ok good
[14:11] <Akuli> hmm how do we find out more info about it
[14:11] <monah> with lspci
[14:12] <Akuli> nice
[14:12] <Akuli> try it out
[14:12] <monah> 02:00.0 Network controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8723BE PCIe Wireless Network Adapter
[14:12] <monah> so i think it is there
[14:12] <Akuli> great
[14:12] <Akuli> the ubuntu cd comes with some drivers
[14:12] <Akuli> i mean usb stick
[14:12] <monah> ok
[14:12] <Akuli> plug it in, but don't reboot into it
[14:13] <monah> ok
[14:13] <monah> i did
[14:13] <Akuli> did you get a folder?
[14:13] <monah> yes
[14:13] <Akuli> go to pool
[14:14] <monah> ok
[14:14] <Akuli> hmm
[14:14] <monah> did
[14:14] <Akuli> where is it
[14:14] <arduino_> who r u?
[14:14] <monah> i m in
[14:14] <monah> the folder called pool
[14:14] <Akuli> just looking around
[14:14] <Akuli> maybe ubuntu doesn't come with a realtek driver 0_o
[14:14] <Akuli> arduino_, random people who help each other :)
[14:14] <arduino_> maybe
[14:15] <arduino_> wtf
[14:15] <Akuli> monah, i found this https://askubuntu.com/questions/590414/wifi-problems-with-rtl8723be-in-ubuntu-14-04
[14:15] <monah> ok
[14:16] <Akuli> not sure if it will work
[14:16] <monah> the iso of my usb stick of ubuntu doesn have any realtek driver
[14:16] <Akuli> yeah my 16.04.2 iso doesn't have either
[14:16] <arduino_> i have lag
[14:16] <arduino_> pls help me
[14:17] <monah> destination path 'rtlwifi_new' already exists and is not an empty directory.
[14:17] <Akuli> from the git clone?
[14:17] <monah> i m just retyping the commands i found on the site
[14:17] <arduino_> can u hack minecraft?
[14:17] <Akuli> monah, yeah which command was that error coming from?
[14:17] <Akuli> i guess the git clone https/::blablabla
[14:17] <monah> from this:
[14:18] <monah> git clone https://github.com/lwfinger/rtlwifi_new/
[14:18] <Akuli> do this instaed
[14:18] <Akuli> git clone https://github.com/lwfinger/rtlwifi_new/ wifi
[14:18] <monah> ok
[14:18] <Akuli> now it'll make a folder called wifi and go there instead
[14:18] <monah> ok
[14:19] <Akuli> btw which kernel is this
[14:19] <Akuli> uname -a
[14:19] <Akuli> uname -r is enough actually
[14:19] <monah> Linux monah 4.10.0-22-generic #24-Ubuntu SMP Mon May 22 17:43:20 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[14:19] <Akuli> let's hope that this works
[14:19] <Akuli> oh
[14:20] <monah> ok
[14:20] <Akuli> yeah it should work
[14:20] <Akuli> "This code will build on any kernel 3.0 and newer"
[14:20] <Akuli> should be ok
[14:20] <monah> so what should i do?
[14:20] <monah> i m in
[14:20] <Akuli> did it finish cloning?
[14:20] <Akuli> cd wifi
[14:20] <monah> https://github.com/lwfinger/rtlwifi_new/
[14:20] <Akuli> oh
[14:21] <Akuli> hi Akuli2 :D we have the same name
[14:21] <Akuli> oh thats arduino_ whatever
[14:21] <Akuli2> ohh
[14:21] <Akuli> monah, from now on, when i type "$ blabla" it means "type blabla to terminal and press enter"
[14:21] <monah> ok
[14:21] <Akuli> monah, $ git clone https://github.com/lwfinger/rtlwifi_new/ wifi
[14:22] <Akuli> do that if you didn't already do it
[14:22] <Akuli> then
[14:22] <Akuli> $ cd wifi
[14:22] <monah> ok
[14:22] <monah> monah@monah:~/wifi$
[14:22] <Akuli> great
[14:22] <Akuli> $ make
[14:22] <Akuli> it might take a while
[14:22] <monah> ok

[14:23] <Akuli> yes arduino_?
[14:23] <monah> ok
[14:23] <monah> sorry
[14:23] <Akuli> no problem
[14:23] <arduino_> are u hackers?
[14:23] <Akuli2> of course
[14:23] <Akuli> arduino_, depends on what you call a hacker. do you mean someone who makes things or breaks things?
[14:23] <arduino_> it doesn't matter
[14:24] <Akuli> i prefer making stuff
[14:24] <grongman32> try this: ooskar.com
[14:24] <arduino_> thats cool akuli
[14:24] <arduino__> can you tell me how to hack computers ?
[14:24] <grongman32> and this: virus.com
[14:25] <Akuli> can some op warn the arduino guy or tell him to go away or something? his stuff don't seem to have anything to do with ubuntu mate
[14:26] <grongman32> yeah leave please
[14:26] <grongman32> we are trying to work
[14:26] <arduino_> okai
[14:26] <grongman32> you are just a rat-boy
[14:26] <monah> so i think it has just finished processing the command git
[14:26] <arduino_> =,(
[14:27] <Akuli> monah, you mean make?
[14:27] <Akuli> good
[14:27] <Akuli> $ sudo make install
[14:27] <Akuli> arduino_, btw you can create your own irc channel for free
[14:27] <monah> Install rtlwifi SUCCESS
[14:27] <Akuli> arduino_, /join ##arduinolol
[14:27] <Akuli> monah, great :) follow rest of the commands
[14:28] <Akuli2> yeahh
[14:28] <monah> the commands?
[14:28] <Akuli> on the thing i linked
[14:28] <monah> sorry but which ones?
[14:28] <Akuli> looks like you can just reboot and it should work
[14:28] <Akuli2> arduino_ leave this group
[14:28] <monah> ah i should reboot?
[14:28] <Akuli> who are the ops here
[14:28] <Akuli> yeah
[14:28] <monah> oh ok thnak you so much

[14:28] <monah> great thx
[14:29] <grongman32> thx
[14:29] <grongman32> iĺl try it to
[14:29] <grongman32> too
[14:29] <grongman32> iḿ bored
[14:33] <monah> hi room
[14:33] <monah> again it´me
[14:34] <monah> well unfortunatly it didn´t work
[14:37] <Akuli> hmm :(
[14:37] <Akuli> then i dont know what to do
[14:37] <KTrad> What are you trying to do?
[14:37] <monah> ok
[14:37] <monah> thx anyway
[14:37] <monah> actually
[14:38] <monah> my wifi rtl doesn´t work
[14:38] <KTrad> which RTL?
[14:38] <monah> rtl8723be
[14:40] <KTrad> 16.04?
[14:40] <monah> no
[14:40] <monah> 17.04
[14:41] <KTrad> Have you tried following the steps here:  https://askubuntu.com/questions/635625/how-do-i-get-a-realtek-rtl8723be-wireless-card-to-work
[14:41] <KTrad> also I'd make sure to remove the conf file if you have it
[14:41] <monah> ok
[14:41] <Akuli> KTrad, no we haven't followed that yet
[14:41] <monah> i ll try this one
[14:41] <KTrad> You won't have to rebuild everytime the kernel is updated
[14:41] <Akuli> KTrad, we did this one though https://askubuntu.com/a/593015
[14:42] <KTrad> oh ok, well this is based off the same code but built for DKMS and is one easy to install package
[14:45] <monah> ok so i
[14:45] <monah> add the repository
[14:45] <monah> and installed the new one
[14:45] <monah> lets hope it will work
[14:45] <KTrad> kk
[14:48] <monah> hi
[14:48] <KTrad> did it work?
[14:48] <monah> unfortunately no
[14:49] <KTrad> is this a clean installation?
[14:49] <monah> yeah
 Linux monah 4.10.0-22-generic #24-Ubuntu SMP Mon May 22 17:43:20 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[14:50] <Akuli> should be new enough
[14:51] <monah> yes
[14:51] <monah> actually i m looking at
[14:51] <monah> and i sa
[14:51] <monah> etc
[14:51] <monah> modprobe
[14:51] <monah> and i saw
[14:52] <monah> iwiwifi
[14:52] <monah> which didnt exist beforew
[14:52] <KTrad> oh 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-dkms
[14:52] <KTrad> eless-card-to-work
[14:52] <KTrad> oops
[14:52] <KTrad> one sec will get the link
[14:52] <KTrad> https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2289959
[14:53] <monah> ok
[14:53] <KTrad> reboot before each new step though
[14:53] <monah> so i delete first?
[14:53] <KTrad> Hopefully that will clean out any remnants. If not my only other advice would be to reinstall and then just install from the PPA
[14:54] <KTrad> sudo apt purge rtlwifi-new-dkms  first
[14:54] <monah> i did sudo..
[14:54] <KTrad> then follow instructions in that link I just posted to uninstall the one you tried compiling
[14:54] <monah> and now which steps u said to follow?
[14:54] <monah> ok
[14:54] <KTrad> after reboot reinstall from ppa
[14:54] <KTrad> then reboot once more
[14:55] <monah> ok
[14:56] <KTrad> brb
[14:56] <monah> ok
[15:05] <KTrad> back
[15:15] <monah> hi
[15:15] <KTrad> any luck?
[15:15] <monah> not yet
[15:17] <monah> how to
[15:17] <monah> remove the one i configured
[15:17] <monah> how to remove the old rtl config?
[15:18] <KTrad> https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2289959
[15:18] <KTrad> post 2
[15:18] <monah> i see but
[15:18] <monah> it asks /cd/to/rtl
[15:19] <monah> how could i figure out wher is this
[15:19] <monah> in
[15:19] <monah> etc
[15:19] <monah> modeprobe.d
[15:19] <monah> i dont have such file
[15:19] <monah> i have
[15:20] <monah> dkms.conf
[15:20] <monah> and iwlwifi.conf
[15:20] <KTrad> /path/to/rtl is the path where you git cloned the driver and compiled it
[15:21] <Akuli> $ cd ~/wifi
[15:21] <monah> ok but how i figure that out? i forgot it
[15:21] <monah> ok
[15:22] <KTrad> brb work again haha
[15:22] <monah> ok
[15:28] <monah> Unable to locate package rtlwifi-new-dkms
[15:30] <KTrad> back
[15:31] <KTrad> when did you get that error message monah?
[15:32] <KTrad> If 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 installed
[15:32] <KTrad> instead do: sudo apt install rtlwifi-new-dkms linux-firmware
[15:35] <monah> hello
[15:35] <KTrad> Did you get that?
[15:35] <monah> just now
[15:35] <monah> i have that error
[15:35] <monah> sudo apt install rtlwifi-new-dkms linux-firmware
[15:35] <monah> E: Unable to locate package rtlwifi-new-dkms
[15:36] <KTrad> sudo add-apt-repository ppa:hanipouspilot/rtlwifi
[15:36] <KTrad> try that first
[15:36] <KTrad> then sudo apt update
[15:36] <monah> ok
[15:38] <monah> E: Unable to locate package rtlwifi-new-dkms
[15:38] <monah> i got that message
[15:38] <KTrad> :/
[15:38] <KTrad> try rebooting
[15:38] <monah> even after upgrading my ppa
[15:38] <monah> ok
[15:38] <KTrad> after all the changes probably for the best anyways
[15:38] <AtSchool> Im trying to install PrestaShop , when i start the page to install the program its just poping up the loading bar and restart and its looping like that
[15:39] <KTrad> https://www.prestashop.com/forums/topic/570830-ps-17-install-leads-to-an-infinite-redirect-loop/   Similar to that AtSchool ?
[15:40] <KTrad> I'm not familiar with prestashop unfortunately
[15:42] <KTrad> have you looked at using PrestaShop cloud? It looks to be completely free
[15:42] <monah> actually
[15:43] <monah> it sees my card but can´t connect to my modem
[15:43] <KTrad> Can it see the wireless network though?
[15:43] <monah> it sees it
[15:43] <KTrad> ok good
[15:43] <AtSchool> thanks im reading
[15:43] <monah> but when i put in my
[15:43] <monah> password wifi
[15:43] <monah> it wont connect
[15:44] <monah> and it only sees my wifi
[15:44] <KTrad> Is the signal really low?
[15:44] <monah> no
[15:44] <monah> yeahh
[15:44] <monah> sorry
[15:44] <KTrad> echo "options rtl8723be ant_sel=2"  | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/rtl8723be.conf
[15:44] <monah> it only marks one bar
[15:44] <KTrad> try that in terminal and reboot
[15:45] <monah> ok
[15:45] <KTrad> That is supposed to fix the low signal issue
[15:45] <monah> options rtl8723be ant_sel=2
[15:45] <monah> now i ll reboot
[15:47] <monah> well the same thing
[15:47] <monah> trying to connect
[15:48] <monah> but than pops me up the little window to enter my password
[15:48] <monah> when i do that\
[15:48] <monah> it wont connect
[15:48] <monah> it pops it up everytime
[15:48] <KTrad> Any specific error? Kind of frustrating you can finally see it but can't connect -.-
[15:49] <monah> like now its trying to connect to wifi
[15:49] <monah> even if i m on cable
[15:50] <KTrad> https://askubuntu.com/questions/776341/wifi-password-can-be-entered-but-wont-connect-with-no-error-message
[15:50] <KTrad> try disconnecting from cable before connecting to wifi
[15:51] <monah> ok
[15:51] <KTrad> https://askubuntu.com/questions/776341/wifi-password-can-be-entered-but-wont-connect-with-no-error-message/811293
[15:51] <KTrad> more info on that link
[15:51] <KTrad> seems to be an issue
[15:52] <monah> ok
[15:55] <KTrad> if 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.
[15:58] <monah> ok thank you
[15:59] <KTrad> lunch time bbl
[16:35] <KTrad> back
[17:49] <jaiken> hello
