| lsmith_ | first time install, on r-pi | 17:54 |
| lsmith_ | default browser Firefox crashes on run, even after update/upgrade | 17:54 |
| Thomas_123 | Hello all, are there other IRC Channels for Ubuntu or Linux in general where one could join and follow along and maybe learn from? | 18:07 |
| diogenes_ | official ubuntu channel | 18:08 |
| lsmith_ | wondering, anyone else have a failed firefox install on fresh install to raspberry pi? | 18:09 |
| Thomas_123 | diogenes_, thank you. | 18:09 |
| diogenes_ | yw | 18:09 |
| lsmith_ | is my chat visible? | 18:10 |
| Akuli | yes lsmith_ | 18:10 |
| Akuli | Thomas_123, there's also ##linux | 18:10 |
| lsmith_ | ok, thanks for that, | 18:10 |
| Thomas_123 | Akuli, Thank you. | 18:10 |
| Akuli | lsmith_, how did it fail? just doesn't run when you try to start it? | 18:10 |
| lsmith_ | crashes immediately on start | 18:13 |
| Akuli | run it from terminal | 18:13 |
| lsmith_ | start of browser. | 18:13 |
| lsmith_ | kk | 18:13 |
| Akuli | press ctrl+alt+t, type firefox, press enter | 18:13 |
| Akuli | does it display anything on the terminal? | 18:13 |
| lsmith_ | ExceptionHandler::GenerateDump cloned child 1904 | 18:14 |
| lsmith_ | ExceptionHandler::SendContinueSignalToChild sent continue signal to child | 18:14 |
| lsmith_ | ExceptionHandler::WaitForContinueSignal waiting for continue signal... | 18:14 |
| lsmith_ | then crash window pops up. | 18:14 |
| Akuli | this doesn't seem like a problem with ubuntu mate | 18:14 |
| lsmith_ | this is on Ubuntu mate | 18:14 |
| Akuli | yes, but seems to be firefox's fault | 18:14 |
| Akuli | you could figure out where you're supposed to report firefox bugs | 18:15 |
| lsmith_ | ok fair enough. Ill try and put chrome onto it | 18:15 |
| Akuli | chromium will actually work | 18:15 |
| lsmith_ | the bug autoreported. | 18:15 |
| Akuli | ok | 18:15 |
| Akuli | run this on terminal: sudo apt install chromium | 18:15 |
| lsmith_ | so, apt-get install chromium ? | 18:15 |
| Akuli | afaik full chrome isn't available on raspberry pi | 18:15 |
| Akuli | yes | 18:16 |
| lsmith_ | Package chromium is not available, but is referred to by another package. | 18:16 |
| lsmith_ | This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or | 18:16 |
| lsmith_ | is only available from another source | 18:16 |
| lsmith_ | However the following packages replace it: | 18:16 |
| lsmith_ | chromium-bsu | 18:16 |
| lsmith_ | E: Package 'chromium' has no installation candidate | 18:16 |
| lsmith_ | so then the bsu one... | 18:16 |
| diogenes_ | bsu is a game | 18:17 |
| diogenes_ | not a browser | 18:17 |
| lsmith_ | :/ hmmm | 18:17 |
| lsmith_ | catch 22, i'll go google up the right package from another omputer. | 18:18 |
| lsmith_ | ah-ha! chromium-browser | 18:18 |
| lsmith_ | thanks for the tip then... I could have tried to browse with a game all morning. :) | 18:19 |
| diogenes_ | lol | 18:20 |
| diogenes_ | lsmith_, you could also try Epiphany, Iceweasel and Midori | 18:20 |
| lsmith_ | Iceweasel sounds like my kinda browser. | 18:21 |
| lsmith_ | fire? fox? I get it.... | 18:21 |
| diogenes_ | icewessel is a debia rebrading of firefox so you could try it | 18:22 |
| lsmith_ | first day in Unbuntu, heady times. | 18:22 |
| diogenes_ | try all of then and see which one you like best | 18:22 |
| lsmith_ | well, chromuim works. I'll message the maintainer of the r-pi packaging, FireFox may not be the best one to go with. | 18:23 |
| lsmith_ | least it's not Edge!!! | 18:23 |
| diogenes_ | haha | 18:23 |
| lsmith_ | I'd rather have firefox that crashes, than edge that works. | 18:23 |
| diogenes_ | agree | 18:24 |
| lsmith_ | well thanks guys/gals. I'm off to the races. | 18:24 |
| diogenes_ | yw | 18:24 |
| Thomas_123 | lsmith_, have a great day. | 18:27 |
| Thomas_123 | If we create a windows vm using virtualbox on one machine and move or clone it to another machine does it cause issues with the vm? I have moved a vm from one install to another on the same machine without issue but curious if it breaks down moving it to a new machine. | 18:30 |
| Akuli | i have never tried it but i don't see why it would break | 18:30 |
| Thomas_123 | Akuli, I was just curious as switching of hardware can cause a normal windows machine issues but was thinking in a vm, the hardware would stay the same. I just made the switch to linux as my daily driver about two weeks ago. I have really only my password manager in windows I am still getting data moved over from. | 18:35 |
| Thomas_123 | Akuli, It is still nice having the ability to jump into a windows vm and run a program like xnview for example. Had to convert and resize a jump drive of images the other day and was a little lost. Tried the linux version of xnview but it was slow and seemed to be missing stuff. | 18:36 |
| Thomas_123 | Akuli, imagamagick looks great but need to learn how it works before taking on anything to big with it. | 18:37 |
| Akuli | at least you won't run out of features with imagemagick | 18:38 |
| Thomas_123 | Akuli, no I really look forward to learning to use it properly. | 18:39 |
| Akuli | gui or command-line? | 18:40 |
| Thomas_123 | Akuli, if though winxp and win8.1 boot in like 12sec or less in vm I really don't care to use it unless I really need it. | 18:40 |
| Thomas_123 | Akuli, Is there a gui for imagemagick? | 18:40 |
| Akuli | it has a thingy i guess you could call a gui | 18:41 |
| Akuli | i have never tried to use it, seems weird to me | 18:41 |
| Thomas_123 | Akuli, I am thinking just learn to write scripts for it will be best. | 18:41 |
| Akuli | ok :) | 18:41 |
| Thomas_123 | Akuli, Started going through a lot of tutorials on gimp and inkscape and so happy to dump adobe. | 18:42 |
| Akuli | i don't need imagemagick often but when i do need it it's nice to have something with a command-line interface | 18:42 |
| Thomas_123 | Akuli, I think that learning to get the mindset of using the commandline when possible over a gui is something I am working on. Even though I started with computers with dos, windows has somewhat changed my approach to getting things done. | 18:44 |
| Thomas_123 | Akuli, I have loved using the terminal so far in linux and am starting to see the benefits of it over always looks for a gui program to get something done. | 18:45 |
| nik_ | Hi who's up? | 19:28 |
| nik_ | Hi, who's up? | 20:17 |
| nik_ | Seems a dead room to me | 20:17 |
| diogenes_ | nik_, welcome to the black pearl | 20:18 |

| nik_ | Really where are the ghostss? | 20:19 |
| diogenes_ | don't ask, it's dangerous | 20:20 |

| flexiondotorg | https://ubuntu-mate.org/blog/ubuntu-mate-artful-beta1/ | 20:29 |
| Gallomimia | what kind of craziness have i heard about in the last few months? i've been offline and away from ubuntu-mate for a long time | 20:50 |
| ouroumov_ | Gallomimia, what crazyness in particular? | 20:57 |
| Gallomimia | well for now i'll ride right over the part that is systemd discussion, but i'm interested to know what it means that ubuntu vanilla is adopting gnome3 | 20:58 |
| ouroumov_ | Meh, that's not an Ubuntu MATE problem, and boy indeed you've been away for a while. Are you aware Ubuntu Phone is dead too? | 20:59 |
| ouroumov_ | I'm gonna sleep, good night. | 21:00 |
| Gallomimia | ah. sort of.... | 21:01 |
| Gallomimia | g'night. its late there eh? here's its 2pm | 21:01 |
| ouroumov_ | 11PM in France, gotta get up at 5. ^^ | 21:03 |
| ouroumov_ | You can check out the release notes for the various releases if you want to catch up on the evolution of Ubuntu MATE | 21:04 |
| ouroumov_ | Cheers | 21:04 |
| mate|76750 | is there a website maintainer in here? if so the link for the beta torrent is wrong | 21:48 |
| flexiondotorg | mate|76750: Thanks. Fixing now. | 21:54 |
| flexiondotorg | mate|76750: The magnet links should be good though. | 21:55 |
| mate|76750 | i figured out which it should be so i used the normal one :) | 21:56 |
