| vimar | Hi | 11:53 |
| ikatnik | Hello. I am changing / converting to a different version of xubuntu. Have downloaded and extracted .iso file. Now how to install? | 12:43 |
| cfhowlett | ikatnik, extracted the .iso? no. | 12:47 |
| cfhowlett | use the ubuntu startup creator tool to make a bootable USB. | 12:48 |
| cfhowlett | boot from USB and install | 12:48 |
| ikatnik | Thanks cfhowlett. Searched for ubuntu startup creator tool. Found. Clicked on. By default wants to open with bash. Chose "open link". Then it went nowhere. Do I need to use a Cmd? If so, what? | 12:57 |
| cfhowlett | whoa wait. | 13:03 |
| cfhowlett | what ubuntu version do you have currently? | 13:03 |
| cfhowlett | the terminal command is usb-creator-gtk | 13:04 |
| ikatnik | I know the version should be obvious. Ran inxi -Fxrc0. Got specs, but not version xubuntu. Sorry, am new to this Am running cmd now. | 13:09 |
| ikatnik | OK. Ran command and it installed. Now ? | 13:14 |
| ikatnik | After installing ubuntu startup creator tool, how do I create the bootable USB? | 13:39 |
| diogenes_ | ikatnik, use rosa | 13:54 |
| ikatnik | Thanks, diogenes. With all respect, how do I use rosa? | 13:55 |
| diogenes_ | wait | 13:55 |
| diogenes_ | ikatnik, here: http://wiki.rosalab.ru/en/index.php/ROSA_ImageWriter#Where_can_I_take_it.3F | 13:57 |
| cfhowlett | ikatnik, ? you use the startup creator tool to create the USB | 13:57 |
| diogenes_ | I had a lot of troubles with it, so I better use Rosa Image Writer | 13:58 |
| ikatnik | Sorry to be near helpless. I have downloaded the xz file. Now extract? | 14:03 |
| diogenes_ | ikatnik, yes extract and doubleclick on RosaImageWriter | 14:03 |
| ikatnik | Image root, I assume? | 14:06 |
| ikatnik | Or Image computer, or some file(s) within? | 14:07 |
| diogenes_ | ikatnik, what you wanna write? | 14:08 |
| ikatnik | Um something to get to the USB startup disk? | 14:08 |
| diogenes_ | you wanna write an image.iso? | 14:09 |
| diogenes_ | to usb? | 14:09 |
| ikatnik | to USB is set via a dialog box. File name image.iso ? | 14:11 |
| diogenes_ | ikatnik, let's start from the beginning, what is your goal you want to achieve in this very hot afternoon? | 14:12 |
| ikatnik | Create startup usb. Via rosa image. >I need to enter a file name (I assume) in a dialog box called "Image:" which is either or within computer or boot. Sorry, even the exact terminology of "image" I am not so clear on. | 14:16 |
| diogenes_ | ikatnik, there are 2 ways of helping you, 1. the quickest and less painful, 2. the longest and more painful (which doesn't guarantee a success for you) | 14:18 |
| diogenes_ | when you decide after which one you go, let me know | 14:20 |
| ikatnik | I am not trying to be difficult. I am not expert in the least. Nomenclature is often a problem for me. But I value your help immensely and am very grateful for it. I have a dialog box open in Rosa Image Writer that asks for "Image:". Clicking on the icon to its right, which is some sort of navigation, opens "Computer" and "root". | 14:23 |
| diogenes_ | yes, now you have to find where your image is stored on the computer, I assume it's somewhere in your Downloads folder | 14:26 |
| diogenes_ | so when that "navigation" opens your "Computer" and "root" | 14:26 |
| diogenes_ | you go to computer/home/Downloads and find your imagename.iso | 14:27 |
| ikatnik | OK. I can do that. To a large degree, I do not have an overall understand of what I am doing in the way of creating an image, and or creating a startup USB. Though I do understand that a startup USB is a device from which I can boot the computer when the system itself (no removable disk or USB) is having a problem. I am realize how valuable one can be. Its relation to installing a new OS I do not understand. | 14:27 |
| ikatnik | Sorry if this is the slow and painful way. | 14:28 |
| diogenes_ | ikatnik, you got it right, startup disk, usb bootable drive, bootable usb they are all synonyms | 14:29 |
| diogenes_ | that means that you download an operating system as an image for instance xubuntu-16.04-64bit.iso | 14:30 |
| diogenes_ | to install it on your pc you have two options to either write this image (xubuntu-16.04-64bit.iso) to a DVD or to a USB | 14:30 |
| ikatnik | Am about to create image of .iso for new (replacement) OS. OK. It now appears I am about to install the new OS (message that all data will be lost) | 14:30 |
| diogenes_ | this will destroy all your data on the USB drive and install the files from the imagename.iso | 14:31 |
| Francis_ | Hi, I'm having troubles to boot xubuntu, sometimes it freezes after the grub. Does anyone know why this is happening? | 14:38 |
| ikatnik | Oh no. I need to get me another USB drive to use. Please stand by. | 14:38 |
| ikatnik | 'New' OS.iso writing to USB. | 14:44 |
| ikatnik | Image on USB. Go to install? | 14:47 |
| ikatnik | Now my system is not reading the USB. I might need to reboot and be back. | 14:51 |
| ikatnik | My system is no longer reading the USB. Should I try burning a DVD of the new OS.iso? | 15:15 |
| diogenes_ | ikatnik, don't kernel panic | 15:18 |
| diogenes_ | everything is under control | 15:18 |
| diogenes_ | ikatnik, somehing | 15:19 |
| ikatnik | Not panicking yet. But soon... | 15:20 |
| diogenes_ | ikatnik, listen | 15:21 |
| diogenes_ | and try to reply as fast as possible because I have little time | 15:21 |
| diogenes_ | is your usb attached to the pc | 15:21 |
| ikatnik | Yes, inserted into USB slot (of all places) | 15:22 |
| diogenes_ | we don't need you to plug it in all the places at the same time, it will do if it's inserted into at least one | 15:22 |
| ikatnik | You have my complete and undivided attention. One slot at a time. | 15:23 |
| diogenes_ | what else apart from that usb is insetred? | 15:23 |
| diogenes_ | inserted* | 15:23 |
| * diogenes_ whistles | 15:24 | |
| ikatnik | An external HD. Which I can remove. Was preparing to move all my backed up files from a second USB to the external HD. | 15:24 |
| diogenes_ | ikatnik, listen very carefully, unplug everything, literally any device from any usb ports EXCEPT the usb which does not work | 15:25 |
| ikatnik | Done. (very carefully) | 15:26 |
| diogenes_ | now | 15:26 |
| diogenes_ | what is the size of your USB? | 15:26 |
| diogenes_ | capacity GB | 15:26 |
| ikatnik | 2 gig | 15:26 |
| diogenes_ | good now | 15:26 |
| diogenes_ | navigate to your RosaImageWriter folder once again and open it | 15:27 |
| diogenes_ | tell me when you done | 15:27 |
| diogenes_ | and one hour later | 15:28 |
| ikatnik | Done. It does show a USB (to write to). My USB just does not show up on the desktop (or file navigation) like I would like. | 15:28 |
| diogenes_ | ikatnik, I told you, keep calm, don't panic | 15:29 |
| diogenes_ | everything is under control | 15:29 |
| diogenes_ | now | 15:29 |
| ikatnik | I am not panicking as fast as I can. | 15:29 |
| diogenes_ | what do you see under USB Device section in the rosa | 15:29 |
| diogenes_ | (and another hour later) | 15:30 |
| ikatnik | test | 15:32 |
| ikatnik | Sorry /dev/sdb/ USB Flash drive (2003 MB) | 15:33 |
| diogenes_ | ikatnik, I'm still waiting | 15:33 |
| diogenes_ | ok good | 15:33 |
| diogenes_ | now | 15:33 |
| diogenes_ | click on the "Clear" button which is right before the "Write" button | 15:33 |
| ikatnik | Done. Says need to format device. Am very ready. | 15:34 |
| diogenes_ | yes | 15:34 |
| diogenes_ | continue | 15:34 |
| ikatnik | Sorry if I am jumping the gun, but no new dialog or evidence of how to continue (after clear). [How to format]. | 15:35 |
| diogenes_ | ikatnik, now unplug and replug your usb and tell me if you can see it now | 15:36 |
| ikatnik | Sorry. Still does not show up on desktop or file system navigation. Does show up in rosa dialog box. (same as before). | 15:38 |
| diogenes_ | tell me what happened when you clicked on Clear? | 15:39 |
| ikatnik | Told me all data would be lost (more or less). Asked if I wanted to go on (yes). Told me I need to format device. | 15:40 |
| diogenes_ | ok good, now go to the menu and look for gparted | 15:41 |
| diogenes_ | wait, a quicker way would be running: gksu gparted | 15:41 |
| ikatnik | Very sorry. Which menu (where)? Rosa? Not being smart here, just mystified. | 15:42 |
| diogenes_ | open terminal and run: gksu gparted | 15:43 |
| diogenes_ | press alt+ctrl+t | 15:43 |
| ikatnik | Installing | 15:43 |
| ikatnik | Has installed. | 15:45 |
| diogenes_ | run the given command | 15:45 |
| ikatnik | OK. Now (dialog box) open with GParted info (table) | 15:46 |
| diogenes_ | now, click on the little box on the right upper corner which says /dev/sda | 15:47 |
| ikatnik | Looks like hard drive partitions (in my humble opinion) | 15:47 |
| diogenes_ | after doing that, a drop down menu will open, you click on your usb device (/dev/sdb) | 15:48 |
| ikatnik | Shows big and little (HD and USB) | 15:48 |
| diogenes_ | click on usb | 15:48 |
| diogenes_ | make SURE it's your 2GB usb | 15:48 |
| ikatnik | Unallocated Partition (with triangular warning ! icon) shows USB 1.96 G (which is size of USB). | 15:50 |
| diogenes_ | you have to right click on that "unallocated bla bla bla" and click on nw | 15:50 |
| diogenes_ | new or create (I forgot) | 15:50 |
| diogenes_ | it's "new" | 15:51 |
| ikatnik | "No Partition table found on device /dev/sdb" | 15:51 |
| diogenes_ | wait if it's triangular sign, then you have to right click on that: choose unmount (or if unavailable choose delete partition) | 15:52 |
| ikatnik | Same message. | 15:53 |
| diogenes_ | ok tell me everything you see when you right click on it | 15:53 |
| ikatnik | On menu, only "new" and "information" are lit up. All else (like delete) is grayed out. | 15:54 |
| diogenes_ | and what happenes when you click new? | 15:54 |
| ikatnik | Get message "No Partition table found onf device /dev/sdb/" . | 15:55 |
| diogenes_ | ok look on the top | 15:56 |
| ikatnik | Done | 15:56 |
| diogenes_ | you see the menus like GPartyed, Edit | 15:56 |
| diogenes_ | click on device and Create partition table | 15:56 |
| ikatnik | Under Device, Can do. Says it will delete all the info on device. Go ahead? | 15:57 |
| diogenes_ | yes but MAKE SURE ONCE AGAIN THAT UNDERNEATH is showing your usb device and not your hard drive | 15:58 |
| ikatnik | Got that (no HD). MS DOS type partition table (I assume, is default)? | 15:59 |
| diogenes_ | yes | 15:59 |
| diogenes_ | msdos | 15:59 |
| ikatnik | Done. No more triangular ! warning icon. | 16:00 |
| ikatnik | New brings up info dialog box. | 16:00 |
| ikatnik | Size 2002 MB | 16:00 |
| diogenes_ | ok try to click on new now | 16:01 |
| ikatnik | +add? | 16:01 |
| ikatnik | Click on which? | 16:01 |
| diogenes_ | yes add | 16:02 |
| diogenes_ | and choose fat32 | 16:02 |
| ikatnik | Did not see fat32. Might have been choice back when I had ms dos type. | 16:03 |
| ikatnik | File system is ext4 | 16:03 |
| diogenes_ | it's ok | 16:03 |
| diogenes_ | now | 16:03 |
| diogenes_ | what color is the little square | 16:03 |
| diogenes_ | is it grey? green? blue? | 16:03 |
| ikatnik | Dark green. | 16:03 |
| diogenes_ | ok | 16:03 |
| diogenes_ | now look at action icons on the top, click on apply | 16:04 |
| ikatnik | Check Mark, apply pending operation. | 16:04 |
| ikatnik | "All operations completed successfully" which sounds good. | 16:05 |
| diogenes_ | close that box and now right click on that again | 16:05 |
| ikatnik | Save details? | 16:05 |
| diogenes_ | choose format to | 16:05 |
| diogenes_ | don't save | 16:05 |
| diogenes_ | format to and choose fat32 from the list | 16:05 |
| ikatnik | Applied pending operation (fat32). Light green small square. | 16:06 |
| diogenes_ | ok all operations completed successful | 16:07 |
| diogenes_ | ? | 16:07 |
| diogenes_ | did you click on apply? | 16:07 |
| ikatnik | Yes. applied. Partition named /dev/sdb1 (done) | 16:07 |
| diogenes_ | ok now close gparted, close terminal unplug and replug your usb and tell me if you see it now | 16:08 |
| ikatnik | I see it even without unplugging / plugging. | 16:09 |
| diogenes_ | great job ikatnik you got it back, congratulations!!! | 16:09 |
| ikatnik | You are truly a wizard, and congratulations are due to you!! The USB appears blank. Something tingling tells me I am to go back to rosa writer and rewrite new OS.iso | 16:10 |
| diogenes_ | ikatnik, wait | 16:11 |
| ikatnik | Standing by. | 16:11 |
| diogenes_ | in possition standing by? do you play tom clancy's recon? | 16:11 |
| ikatnik | Sorry to confess I am such a dinosaur I do not play computer games. I waste my time in other, less constructive ways. Truth be told, this is a crappy USB I got for free at a conference with some dealers advertisers software on it, long gone. | 16:12 |
| diogenes_ | ok now run in terminal | 16:13 |
| diogenes_ | sudo apt-add-repository 'deb http://liveusb.info/multisystem/depot all main' | 16:13 |
| diogenes_ | tell me when done | 16:14 |
| ikatnik | Strangely does nothing. Just shows ">" from my hitting enter. | 16:16 |
| diogenes_ | add a ' | 16:16 |
| diogenes_ | and hit enter | 16:16 |
| diogenes_ | don't write it manually, just copy/paste | 16:17 |
| ikatnik | Too late. | 16:17 |
| ikatnik | Again, does nothing. Sorry. | 16:18 |
| diogenes_ | write here the exact command you gave to terminal | 16:19 |
| ikatnik | Ok. Tried again with a new terminal. Checking to make sure command is exact. | 16:20 |
| ikatnik | sudo apt-add-repository 'deb'http://liveusb.info/multisystem/depot all main' | 16:21 |
| ikatnik | OK. I see the extra ' around deb. Will try again. | 16:21 |
| diogenes_ | oh yeah it should be: sudo apt-add-repository 'deb http://liveusb.info/multisystem/depot all main' | 16:23 |
| ikatnik | I know I came closer when it asked for my password. After that, the terminal went back to beginning without (seeming) to do anything. | 16:26 |
| ikatnik | Try again? | 16:26 |
| diogenes_ | ikatnik, click this: | 16:27 |
| diogenes_ | http://liveusb.info/multisystem/install-depot-multisystem.sh.tar.bz2 | 16:27 |
| ikatnik | Working | 16:27 |
| diogenes_ | did you download it? | 16:28 |
| ikatnik | I thing so. Asking if I want to open with archive manager. | 16:28 |
| diogenes_ | yes you open | 16:28 |
| diogenes_ | and then click on extract | 16:29 |
| ikatnik | Seems to have done. En francais. | 16:30 |
| diogenes_ | ok now, if it's in your Download folder then navigate to that folder | 16:30 |
| diogenes_ | right click and open terminal here | 16:30 |
| diogenes_ | after terminal opens you run: sudo ./install-depot-multisystem.sh | 16:31 |
| ikatnik | I am a bit lost. It ran something called "install-depot-multisystem.sh" in french (which is not a problem) /home user cache ... | 16:34 |
| ikatnik | But did not run in terminal. | 16:34 |
| diogenes_ | ikatnik, open the terminal | 16:35 |
| ikatnik | Ready | 16:35 |
| diogenes_ | run: cd ~/Downloads (if it's called downloads in french) | 16:35 |
| ikatnik | Does nothing. Wan me to look up "downloads" in French? | 16:37 |
| diogenes_ | ikatnik, I've got roughly 5 minutes so hurry up | 16:38 |
| diogenes_ | run pwd | 16:38 |
| diogenes_ | and tell me what you see | 16:38 |
| ikatnik | ~/Downloads$ ~ | 16:39 |
| diogenes_ | good now run: sudo ./install-depot-multisystem.sh | 16:40 |
| diogenes_ | tell me what you get | 16:40 |
| diogenes_ | 2 minutes | 16:40 |
| ikatnik | Asks for password. Am giving it. | 16:41 |
| diogenes_ | and? | 16:41 |
| diogenes_ | after you entered the password? | 16:41 |
| ikatnik | command not found. | 16:41 |
| diogenes_ | ok then listen, now I've got to go, if you want, come later and we'll see | 16:41 |
| * diogenes_ went offline | 16:42 | |
| ikatnik | Thank you very much! | 16:42 |
| ikatnik | "Now to start the script please use\nthe menu: / Applications/Accessoires/MultiSystem." | 16:49 |
| adriancs35 | Hello! | 19:01 |
| knome | 'lo | 19:01 |
| diogenes_ | hi gentlemen | 19:01 |
| adriancs35 | I was wondering if you guys have a minute to help me with a issue, it's probably because I'm stupid though. | 19:02 |
| knome | ask and find out please :) | 19:03 |
| adriancs35 | I am trying to compile a application using GCC5, and I am encountering this error right before it links: "/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lvalgrind collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status | 19:03 |
| adriancs35 | " | 19:03 |
| ikatnik | Hi. I am back. | 19:23 |
| diogenes_ | ikatnik, hi, welcome | 19:23 |
| ikatnik | I still imagine that multisystems did some installation. I have some sort of tab open which looks like an html or more an XML file. Not sure which. Includes French. | 19:25 |
| ikatnik | "Now to start the script please use\nthe menu: / Applications/Accessoires/MultiSystem." | 19:25 |
| ikatnik | BTW. Thank you kindly for the help this morning when you were on your way out! | 19:25 |
| diogenes_ | ikatnik, you're welcome, now run in terminal | 19:26 |
| diogenes_ | multisystem | 19:26 |
| ikatnik | sudo install? Sorry, which cmd exactly? | 19:30 |
| diogenes_ | ikatnik, what did you say about multisystem done for you? | 19:30 |
| diogenes_ | what have you tried | 19:31 |
| ikatnik | Last it seems was sudo ./install-multisystem-depot.sh , which asked for a password when I ran it, but went no where. But like I said, there is a document, which I will paste into paste.ubuntu.com (Pastebin) which I think you should see. Stand by. | 19:34 |
| diogenes_ | ok | 19:34 |
| * diogenes_ takes a sip from the flask of patience | 19:35 | |
| ikatnik | I am trying the patience. Thank you. A virtue, but not always mine. Pastebin URL: https://paste.ubuntu.com/25006103/ | 19:37 |
| ikatnik | Or maybe rather the patience is trying me. | 19:38 |
| diogenes_ | ikatnik, download this: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/289386214/gnome-multi-writer_3.22.1-1_amd64.deb | 19:40 |
| ikatnik | Opened via archive manager. | 19:41 |
| diogenes_ | no | 19:41 |
| diogenes_ | after download, double click | 19:41 |
| diogenes_ | after download, double click | 19:41 |
| ikatnik | Is writing to USB (disk) after warning that all previous data on disk will be overwritten. | 19:45 |
| diogenes_ | it will format it, deleting all the previous data and write new ones | 19:45 |
| ikatnik | Is slow (8.0 Mb/s, but working on it. | 19:46 |
| diogenes_ | what? 8 Mbps is that slow? | 19:46 |
| ikatnik | I take your word it is not. | 19:47 |
| ikatnik | About 40% done. | 19:47 |
| diogenes_ | then it's not 8 MB it's 8 KBps | 19:48 |
| ikatnik | Done. (of course) USB no longer visible on desktop. | 19:48 |
| diogenes_ | usb should be visible because we didn't apply any actions on it | 19:49 |
| diogenes_ | replug it and see | 19:50 |
| ikatnik | No, wrote new OS.iso to it. Did I jump the gun? | 19:50 |
| ikatnik | Still invisible. Maybe old / p. of trash USB? | 19:51 |
| diogenes_ | wait wait waittttt, when last time we spoke, your usb was ok right? | 19:52 |
| ikatnik | Yes it was. And visible after painful restoration of partition. I can try that again. | 19:52 |
| ikatnik | Or I can use a newer, better, paid for (as opposed to free of charge) USB 16 gig. Just need time to empty it. | 19:53 |
| diogenes_ | yeah, empty it and we'll continue | 19:55 |
| * diogenes_ takes another sip from the flask of patience | 19:55 | |
| ikatnik | Ok. Stand by. | 19:56 |
| ikatnik | 5 - 10 minutes till back up of larger USB complete. Then will use multiwriter to write OS.iso to better, larger USB. | 19:59 |
| ikatnik | Your imbibing is appreciated. | 20:04 |
| diogenes_ | oui monseur | 20:05 |
| ikatnik | Better USB is visible. Using multiwriter to write OS.iso to device. | 20:07 |
| diogenes_ | ikatnik, what multiwriter | 20:08 |
| diogenes_ | ? | 20:08 |
| ikatnik | gnome multiwriter is a gui program on my mousey menu. Just showed up a little while ago. Wrong thing? I used it on the poor bad old USB. | 20:09 |
| diogenes_ | yes, that is a good program | 20:10 |
| ikatnik | Going at 8MB/s. | 20:10 |
| ikatnik | USB disk still visible while writing. | 20:12 |
| diogenes_ | ikatnik, I'm feeling the niose from the wings of Morpheus, do you know who is Morpheus? | 20:12 |
| diogenes_ | moise* | 20:12 |
| diogenes_ | noise* | 20:12 |
| sorinello | anyone using xubuntu-core here ? I might have an interesting issue, which does not happen on xubuntu | 20:13 |
| ikatnik | The greek god of dreams, after whom the potion called morphine is named? Or a character from a computer game, or sometime contributer to the xubuntu IRC channel? | 20:14 |
| diogenes_ | ikatnik, the god of dreams | 20:14 |
| diogenes_ | so ikatnik tell me at what stage the burning process is right now? | 20:15 |
| ikatnik | Yes, that Morpheus I know. Looks like it is writing, though slow. The morpheus from the Matrix I am only a little familiar with. Am not that up on popular culture. I am a snob, or out of it. Or both. | 20:16 |
| diogenes_ | don't underestimate yourself, you're cool, | 20:17 |
| diogenes_ | should I ask my question again or you can scroll up and read it? :D | 20:18 |
| ikatnik | Which of so, so many question? Writing looks about 20% done. I am quite proud (or sometimes prod) of myself, and consider insulating myself from popular culture a revolutionary act. Or maybe just bragging. | 20:19 |
| ikatnik | This is a much bigger USB, if it is overwriting, it has much more work to do. | 20:20 |
| diogenes_ | ikatnik, what image.iso you are writing to it? | 20:21 |
| diogenes_ | what is its name? | 20:21 |
| ikatnik | xubuntu-14.05.5-desktop-i386.iso | 20:23 |
| ikatnik | Now you got me scared. | 20:24 |
| diogenes_ | so it should be having around 1GB size | 20:24 |
| ikatnik | Yes. | 20:24 |
| ikatnik | But my guess is it is overwriting the previous data on the (I think) 16 gig USB stick. | 20:25 |
| diogenes_ | and it doesn't matter on what size usb you're writing it to, it's either 2 BG or 200 GB it should be taking the same amount of time | 20:25 |
| diogenes_ | because the image size is the same | 20:25 |
| ikatnik | Do not know why the delay. Is about 40% done | 20:26 |
| ikatnik | According to graphc via multiwriter. | 20:26 |
| ikatnik | I know it is working because the speed keeps changing, and the LED within the USB disk is blinking like a bird with sand in its eye. | 20:28 |
| diogenes_ | ikatnik, I feel like Morpheus (the god of dreams and sleep) is slowly dragging me to his kingdom (if you got what I meant) so, having said that, I'd suggest you to either choose a short and straightforward way to resolve your issue which will invole you to download teamviewer and let me do this work in 5 minutes for you, or I will go to Morpheuse's kingdom and you can come tomorrow and all the next week trying to burn that | 20:29 |
| diogenes_ | iso to usb :) | 20:29 |
| ikatnik | Teamviewer is fine with me, I am a trusting soul. Lead on. | 20:30 |
| diogenes_ | so go ahead install it and write to me in private the ID and password | 20:30 |

| diogenes_ | ikatnik, I still haven't seen teamviewer(numbers).deb neither on desktop nor in downloads | 21:06 |
| diogenes_ | where is it? | 21:06 |
| ikatnik | I promise it is in downloads. I am looking at it. Temp > User > Downloads. | 21:07 |
| ikatnik | Or maybe I have the order wrong. But it contains the files I / we have downloaded over the last few minutes, hours. Including gnome writer and multiwriter download files. | 21:09 |
| diogenes_ | be so kind and copy that teamviewer file to desktop :) | 21:10 |
| ikatnik | Done | 21:11 |
