[08:41] <random432> Hi, what is the best way to enable an extension on gnome in CLI ? seems "gnome-shell-extension-tool -e" doesn't work
[09:16] <vincenzoml> Hi there, I am starting to use ubuntu 17.10; one big issue is that my videos have strange colours when played via totem
[09:16] <vincenzoml> I have a video which is all yellow, and it is displayed as purple
[09:16] <vincenzoml> the thumbnail in nautilus is yellow
[09:17] <vincenzoml> mplayer and vlc play the video just fine, however in kdenlive I have the same issues and I don't have a replacement for it :) 
[09:18] <vincenzoml> the video I'm playing is mp4 - h264
[09:23] <vincenzoml> just tested with the example videos provided by ubuntu and the issue is not related to codecs or file formats
[09:33] <brainwash> vincenzoml: sounds like a problem with the gstreamer backend
[09:37] <brainwash> vincenzoml: I would test with "gst-play-1.0 /path/to/file"
[10:11] <brunch> Computer hangs on shutdown until you change to tty7. Also, ttys appear to only have an underscore (no login) unless you've gone through tty7 before. Do we have a bug for this?
[10:15] <brainwash> brunch: does this happen when doing a logout also?
[10:16] <brunch> brainwash: you mean if I can log out to gdm without issues?
[10:16] <brainwash> right
[10:16] <brunch> oooor if I can shut down after loging out without having to go through tty7?
[10:17] <brainwash> well, both I guess
[10:17] <brainwash> it's just information gathering
[10:17] <brainwash> to pinpoint the issue
[10:18] <brainwash> other than that, you should check the system log for hints (via journalctl)
[10:19] <brainwash> you may have to enable persistent logs first
[10:19] <brainwash> by creating the directory /var/log/journal
[10:22] <brunch> alright, I'll check in a moment
[10:31] <ducasse> david_: that does not look like an ubuntu-packaged owncloud client, talk to the owncloud people
[10:39] <brunch> alright so logout works fine
[10:40] <brunch> but trying to power off after logging out, or fresh boot without logging in makes no difference from shutdown from desktop
[10:40] <brunch> same thing with reboots
[10:40] <brunch> need to ‘unlock’ ttys by going through tty7 first
[10:41] <brunch> then it displays a message prompting the shutdown message to immediatly shut down afterwards
[10:42] <brainwash> anything in the system log?
[10:42] <brunch> where do I check again?
[10:42] <brainwash> journalctl
[10:44] <brunch>  journalctl -b -1 Specifying boot ID or boot offset has no effect, no persistent journal was found.
[10:44] <brunch> am I doing it wrong?
[10:46] <brunch> ah I see, need to persist it first
[10:47] <brainwash> exactly
[10:50] <brunch> just a moment, I'll try this again
[10:59] <brunch> hmmm I'll play with the times so that it's easier to walk through
[11:08] <brunch> OK so the logs are pasted here: https://paste.ubuntu.com/25539906/
[11:09] <brunch> according to my phone's clock it goes like this:
[11:09] <brunch> minute 0: boot computer
[11:09] <brunch> minute 1: log in
[11:09] <brunch> 1:30: shut down
[11:10] <brunch> 2:00: change to tty7 to unfreeze and actually shut down
[11:14] <brunch> extra info: using nvidia propietary drivers nvidia-384 from the ppa
[11:15] <brunch> on a dual monitor setup, if it is any help
[11:18] <brainwash> mmh
[11:19] <brainwash> I would do a test run without the "splash" kernel boot paramter
[11:19] <brainwash> maybe even remove the "quiet" one also
[11:20] <brainwash> brunch: did it work fine before installing the nvidia driver?
[11:25] <brunch> brainwash: I can't say for certain... I have the habit of immediatly installing it since mesa sometimes freezes the whole system
[11:25] <brunch> I'll try without splash and quiet
[11:25] <brunch> just a sec
[11:36] <brunch> sorry for taking so long, had to answer a call
[11:36] <brunch> brainwash: removing quiet and splash fixed the issue
[11:36] <brunch> can also access ttys without going through tty7
[11:36] <brunch> also, tty7 seems to have more content now
[11:37] <brainwash> not using splash means not using plymouth to display a boot/shutdown screen
[11:37] <brainwash> still, you would have to test without the nvidia driver I think
[11:38] <brunch> I suppose I'd have to reinstall for that
[11:38] <brunch> or is it fine if I just go back to mesa from this point?
[11:39] <brainwash> probably
[11:39] <brainwash> I suggest that you initiate a bug report with "ubuntu-bug plymouth"
[11:40] <brunch> I wouldn't be surprised if the card is to blame. <16.10 hangs the system with nouveau
[11:40] <brainwash> this will gather logs files for the current state
[11:40] <brainwash> which gpu is that?
[11:41] <brunch> gtx960m. Have had issues with it since I got the laptop
[11:41] <brainwash> ohh
[11:41] <brainwash> so it's multi gpu also, or? intel + nvidia
[11:41] <brunch> I'm surprised I can install ubuntu and log in with it without the propietary drivers now
[11:41] <brunch> yes, it is intel + nvidia
[11:42] <brunch> fedora and suse installers just freeze if I don't blacklist nouveau
[11:42] <brunch> ubuntu seems to be using the intel chip on default
[11:43] <brainwash> there's https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/board/98/
[11:44] <brunch> perhaps I should try with the stable propietary driver too
[11:45] <brunch> think it's at 375
[11:45] <brainwash> you should do that
[11:46] <brainwash> well, you got plenty to do now :)
[11:46] <brunch> I'll get to it this evening, I guess :Þ
[11:46] <brunch> thanks for walking me through, it's good to have a clear task
[11:47] <brainwash> you're welcome
[15:26] <enet> Hi all. Does anyone know how to enable move-to-subwords-behaviour in Ubuntu 17.10 (with Gnome 3)? I mean jump backwards/forwards words in camelCaseExpressions using Alt+Arrow keys.
[18:21] <immu> https://imgur.com/a/KC8mP issue while searching for a software or file in ubuntu daily
[18:21] <lotuspsychje> lets c
[18:21] <ikonia> ok ?
[18:21] <ikonia> "time out"
[18:21] <ikonia> isn't that a key to the problem
[18:22] <ikonia> you're using a development version and it couldn't get a response back in time from the server providing the meta data for the software packages.
[18:22] <ikonia> what do you think the problem is ?
[18:24] <immu> i don't know ,may be someone can figure it out
[18:24] <ikonia> think about it.....
[20:02] <gonyere_> So, I've been running 17.10 for a while now, and suddenly two-finger scrolling has quit working... any thoughts?
[20:20] <gonyere_> update: nm - resetting tweak-tool to default settings and a restart seems to have fixed it, though I can't see anythings changed...
[20:52] <immu> do snaps work in 17.10?
[21:44] <pia3399user> Hello everyone, Private Internet Access VPN client doesn't work with the newest build of 17.10
[21:44] <pia3399user> It works with 17.04 just fine.  But I can get PIA to install on 17.10, but after that when you click the icon, nothing happens
[21:45] <pia3399user> the workaround is to use the built-in VPN for 17.10, but that takes some research to do properly.  Since the PIA VPN client is designed for Debian distros, I thought this should be reported, but can't figure out where else to report it to.
