[01:06] <Fretegi> anyone here installed infinality-ultimate on ubuntu-mate?
[01:09] <_Anna_> Hi. Does someone know the minimum MB of graphics memory Ubuntu MATE 64 needs?
[01:10] <Fretegi> hi there, i dont know that
[01:10] <Fretegi> however, what kinda card u running?
[01:10] <_Anna_> That's irrelevant.
[01:10] <Fretegi> usually more an issue of amount of RAM available unless your doing intense graphics stuff
[01:11] <tsimonq2> _Anna_: How much do you have to work with?
[01:13] <_Anna_> My problem is I can't install vista on my virtual machine and I don't know why. I suspect I might gave less graphics memory than vista needs, but then again I don't want to take from host os more than host OS needs.
[01:27] <tsimonq2> _Anna_: That shouldn't be a problem on modern systems
[01:28] <_Anna_> It's a Toshiba Tecra A10-11M. You can't exactly call it modern.
[01:30] <tsimonq2> _Anna_: I'd say just try it and see if it works ;)
[01:30] <_Anna_> Try what?
[01:32] <tsimonq2> Try allocating the memory
[01:33] <_Anna_> I did. Twice. I gave 32 out of 128 MB and it gave me back a blue screen which I didn't even have time to read.
[01:34] <tsimonq2> Alright, then let's wait for flexiondotorg, he'll likely know the answer ;)
[01:35] <_Anna_> I don't really know what is the problem for sure. I suspect it is that cause Microsoft says it might need 128 MB... but I can't leave my host OS without graphics memory at all, can I?
[01:35] <_Anna_> Who?
[01:37] <tsimonq2> _Anna_: Martin Wimpress.
[02:05] <ali1234> ubuntu mate should not need any graphics memory assigned to the VM at all, and it wont be used until you install the guest utils anyway
[02:10] <_Anna_> I'm not sure I follow.
[02:14] <_Anna_> Are you saying I can give all available graphics memory to the guest OS?
[02:20] <_Anna_> PrtSc button doesn't work with vm, but I think I found a way to read the blue screen. Next time it happens, I'll just pause the vm!
[02:20] <_Anna_> At least I'll know what's wrong, hopefully.
[03:11] <ubuntu-mate> hello
[03:30] <_Anna_> The error is called DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
[03:30] <_Anna_> Any idea what is that?
[04:01] <dixonstalbert> Did you see this ? also check your bios and see if there is a virtualization (VT-AMD) option and if it is turned onhttps://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?p=200748#p200748
[04:06] <_Anna_> Can you reach BIOS when OS is not installed yet?
[04:28] <donald_> does anyone know how to add widevine suppport?

[12:20] <shubham> hi there .. i am using ubuntu mate 16.04 and when i insert my 2tb WD external hard drive either it takes too much time to load or most of the time it does not show .. i recently came from windows platform and using my external drive first time in ubuntu ... can anyone help please?
[12:25] <shubham> anyone?
[12:26] <sixwheeledbeast> shubham: not showing how?
[12:29] <shubham> my hard drive led light is blinking but nothing is appearing in my desktop
[12:29] <shubham> when i inserted first time it worked but now its not
[12:37] <sixwheeledbeast> ok so you are on mate 16.04.3 LTS right?
[12:37] <sixwheeledbeast> I assume the drive is FAT?
[12:38] <sixwheeledbeast> Drives should show in Places
[12:42] <shubham> but its not showing
[12:42] <shubham> it only show for the first time
[12:43] <sixwheeledbeast> Did you unmount the drive before removing it?
[12:48] <shubham> no
[12:48] <shubham> i did safely remove device
[12:50] <sixwheeledbeast> So you didn't click eject symbol in places before you removed the USB or powered down?
[12:50] <shubham> no
[12:50]  * sixwheeledbeast need to go afk for 10 minutes
[12:51] <sixwheeledbeast> try rebooting your machine first be back in a sec
[12:51] <shubham> okay i will try it
[13:16] <sixwheeledbeast> Reboot fixed it... I wonder if disk mounter panel on, would help new users with this.

[16:25] <_Anna_> Does someone know the minimum MB of graphics memory Ubuntu MATE 64 needs?
[16:43] <DarkJarris> that was an odd thing to happen. my usb stick suddenly became read only
[16:43] <DarkJarris> bit of investigating shows the my /media folder was owned by root
[16:43] <DarkJarris> chowned it back to me, rebooted the laptop, now its fine
[16:43] <DarkJarris> not entirely sure what changed it though, or when
[19:21] <web1> hello
[19:21] <web1> is there anybody who's good at oracle?
[19:37] <biotim> DarkJarris: /media folder is normally owned by root. Probably the system encountered some problem with the USB device or the filesystem on the USB drive, which caused it to remount it as read-only. Could indicate a problem with the drive, or maybe just a temporary interruption of the USB connection. https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/168321/why-does-ubuntu-change-my-file-system-to-read-only
