[06:41] <Stanley> Hello having issues installing Ubuntu mate seems to hang at boot logo might be GPU related?
[13:46] <stumate> hello
[14:18] <infide1castr0> messed around with Linux Mint for a while, excited to try out the new Ubuntu Mate, downloading the image right now, so quite new...  what do you guys think is so great about it?
[14:19] <ouroumov> You mean, compared to Linux Mint?
[14:19] <infide1castr0> oh I just meant in general haha, just wanted to hear some community opinion about it, get a conversation going
[14:20] <ouroumov> infide1castr0, we have an extensive repository of opinions that you can read here: https://ubuntu-mate.community/t/why-do-you-use-linux-and-why-did-you-choose-ubuntu-mate/12572
[14:20] <deskwizard> the wallpapers are really cool.
[14:20] <deskwizard> lol :P
[14:21] <ouroumov> I like them too. ^^
[14:21] <infide1castr0> well certainly a lot of reading there, haha thanks mate
[14:22] <ouroumov> yw
[14:22] <infide1castr0> and I am a fan of cool wallpapers))
[14:24] <infide1castr0> but, @ouroumov did you have any certain opinions on UbuntuMATE v Mint?
[14:29] <Jack_Sparrow__> As an old timer I like Mint Mate because of the single bottom menu and lots of tools where I expect to find them
[14:30] <Jack_Sparrow__> I was a user of 98 and XP and have always had a single bottom menu .  I found KDE too klunky but in all honesty I have not given it serious consideration in years
[14:31] <Jack_Sparrow__> I quit Ubuntu over Unity
[14:31] <infide1castr0> interesting, what brought you over here to ubutntu mate?
[14:33] <Jack_Sparrow__> I wanted to see how it goes with Mate development over here.   I can add my mint menu if I really find I like what I am seeing
[14:34] <infide1castr0> that is interesting, when I messed around with Mint I was using Cinnamon, so I am new to mate in general
[14:34] <Jack_Sparrow__> Then you need to at least look at Mint-Mate
[14:36] <infide1castr0> I am quite amateur, so I am only recently learning about mate really, you think mint is a better start over this ubuntu one?
[14:40] <Jack_Sparrow__> The beauty of testing live usb..   try a lot of them
[14:40] <Jack_Sparrow__> Setup partitions so you can slide a new linux in and keep your stuff
[14:41] <Jack_Sparrow__>  think Ubuntu Mate is Very New and will change a lot over the next few versions
[14:42] <infide1castr0> I am excited to see where this new ubuntu mate goes, I liked ubuntu when I first read about it, and tried it out before I settled for Linux Mint
[14:42] <infide1castr0> I will have to look into that idea you  mentioned of bringing the mint bar into ubuntu
[14:44] <Jack_Sparrow__> It wont be that easy and you would mix some repos that should not be ixed
[14:44] <Jack_Sparrow__> mixed
[14:45] <infide1castr0> well then I will take that slower haha, I have a lot to learn, that is for certain
[14:46] <Jack_Sparrow__> I would suggest Mint Mate over Ubntu Mate if only for the current level of support. spotchat..
[14:47] <Jack_Sparrow__> INstall a few live linux releases on a handful of flash drives and go explore.
[14:47] <Jack_Sparrow__> Distrowatch.com  is fun
[14:47] <ubuntu__> ur dumb
[14:47] <Jack_Sparrow__> Yes Duffus..  Did you have a point
[14:48] <ubuntu__> No not really
  think Ubuntu Mate is Very New and will change a lot over the next few versions -> Yes, but the changes shouldn't impact the workflow
[15:06] <Jack_Sparrow__> I have high hopes for it..
[15:07] <Guest79445> ubuntu mate won't shut down it starts right back up when i try to shutdown.
[15:10] <Guest79445> bye
[15:11] <Jack_Sparrow__> Love to see his source list.
[21:06] <tony_> Strange behavior with Darktable -- when installed it takes over my Places menu.  The first five items launch Darktable instead of going where they are supposed to.  Any ideas?
[21:10] <bcracer5> i just started using 16.04 Mate,  my system keeps loking up while running google Chrome
[21:10] <bcracer5> *locking
[21:10] <vlt> tony_: Never expirienced that behaviour on several Ubuntu MATE machines.
[21:10] <bcracer5> any advice?
[21:11] <bcracer5> i have been running ubuntu for 7 years
[21:15] <tony_> Whatever Darktable is doing to my system, it's repeatable.  I un-installed it, the menus went back to normal.  Re-installed it and they malfunctioned again.
[21:18] <vlt> tony_: Worked for me on 12.04, 14.04 and 16.04; haven
[21:18] <vlt> ’t tried anything newer.
[21:21] <jimmy_> anyone suggest a good FPS game for linux
[22:13] <tony_> A solution, of sorts.  I installed an updated Darktable.  Now the Places menu is gone entirely.
[22:14] <tony_> I don't think I'll miss it.
[22:57] <thedabbler> Hello.
[22:57] <thedabbler> Is there a way I can reset my fonts back to normal on Ubuntu MATE?
