[06:24] <Cheeze> so I usually install a linux distro once every 2 or 3 years and try using it as my primary desktop OS. In the past I've always ran into lots of small problems that compound on themselves and I eventually switch back to windows. I've been using Ubuntu Mate for the past 2 weeks now and everything has worked flawlessly, it's by the far best distro I've ever used.
[06:25] <Cheeze> and the default interface is very nice. everything makes sense.
[06:26] <Cheeze> nice work.
[07:41] <perfect_pete> guys, does anyone of you have an asus laptop? mine behaves weird if i try to charge it. the led is orange, indicating charging, but after some time it starts to blink. when i turn the machine on, the battery is still empty. any ideas?

[20:57] <Runferurlife> hello everyone
[21:26] <Runferurlife> does anyone have any experience with Deluge and it's dependicies?
[21:27] <Runferurlife> https://thepasteb.in/p/lOhO4ByAYl8HB
[21:28] <Jack_Sparrow__> Why not use the one in our repos
[21:28] <Runferurlife> the above was given to me after I tried to install
[21:29] <Jack_Sparrow__> Thats not the deluge from our repos
[21:30] <Runferurlife> oh
[21:30] <Runferurlife> where are your repos?
[21:30] <Jack_Sparrow__> in a terminal.  sudo apt-get install deluge
[21:31] <Jack_Sparrow__> but you may have already screwed up your sources and added ppa
[21:31] <Runferurlife> yea
[21:31] <Runferurlife> I added ppa
[21:31] <Runferurlife> cause that didn't work
[21:32] <Jack_Sparrow__> Yea, that does, too many want latest that is hit or miss
[21:32] <Runferurlife> used ppa:deluge-team/ppa
[21:32] <Jack_Sparrow__> Bad idea
[21:33] <Runferurlife> why is that?
[21:35] <Jack_Sparrow__> adding ppas to get something installed is not the same as using ubuntu's repositories
[21:35] <Runferurlife> ok
[21:35] <Runferurlife> I didn't know that
[21:35] <Runferurlife> I am still new to Linux
[21:36] <Runferurlife> I removed the pps
[21:36] <Runferurlife> ppa*
[21:36] <Jack_Sparrow__> Np, just trying to help
[21:36] <Jack_Sparrow__> also, just flushing sources / repos and refreshing things will not always save you
[21:36] <Runferurlife> ok.. should I just try the install now that I removed the ppa
[21:36] <Jack_Sparrow__> sure
[21:37] <Jack_Sparrow__> https://sites.google.com/site/easylinuxtipsproject/Home
[21:37] <Jack_Sparrow__> Might help you
[21:37] <Runferurlife> kk
[21:37] <Runferurlife> yea.  it didn't work
[21:37] <Runferurlife> not sure how to remove it so I can try the install command
[21:38] <Jack_Sparrow__> open synaptic
[21:38] <Jack_Sparrow__> select deluge and completely remove
[21:38] <Jack_Sparrow__> I gotta run
[21:39] <Runferurlife> ty
[21:39] <Jack_Sparrow__> np
[21:47] <zobeid> OK, here's a mystery...  Trying to use the Backups program.  "You can create a backup after you first install some necessary software by clicking the Install... button.
[21:47] <zobeid> Which is grayed out.  >.<
[21:50] <zobeid> Not sure what additional software it wants, or why it won't let me install it.
[22:00] <zobeid> uhh...  Are "Back Up" and "Backups" two different programs??
[22:01] <zobeid> Or is Back Up something that was launched by Backups?
[22:01] <sixwheeledbeast^> Deja-dup (Backups) has always been a bit odd for me. I took to cron in the end.
[22:02] <zobeid> I finally got it started after responding to a hidden dialog.
[22:02] <sixwheeledbeast^> Deja-dup is a Ubuntu package I recall it depending on Gnome and Unity.
[23:42] <Guest81227> can anyone possibly assist me with update? i tried apt get update && apt get upgrade but there are still some updates not installing is there a easy work around for the /boot size issue?
[23:49] <Astro7467> also need apt-get full-upgrade
[23:50] <Guest81227> awesome ill try that tanks for the info
[23:50] <Guest81227> thanks*
[23:50] <Astro7467> this will deal with more aggressive updates that typically make packages redundant
