[00:04] <kiroma> Hey, can we get a libc6 update? There's a serious regression that has been patched a week ago.
[00:25] <SpmP> valorie: Stock install straight from ISO install - no modifications. Unity is out going forward right? So I figure we want to get the gnome-shell experience right on. Its saving my ass here too - my mum will be ringing every day.. Where is this... where is that. If not this year, next year, its happening so we gotta get onto it 8)
[01:14] <valorie> I don't know what the future of unity-desktop is
[01:14] <valorie> there is no professional team supporting it now
[01:14] <valorie> for the purpose of beta testing of course you wouldn't do that
[08:34] <nocco> Is there anyway that I can confirm if I have a swap file instead of swap-partition?
[08:35] <lotuspsychje> !swap | nocco 
[08:35] <ubottu> nocco: swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info
[08:36] <nocco> I created a swap-partition when installing ubuntu 17.10, but then heard that I do not need it anymmore. I want to delete that partition if not in use.
[09:35] <d_1_stortion__> you can
[09:35] <d_1_stortion__> delete partition and create swap file if it's not already
[12:15] <ballyhoo> So, while testing Ubuntu 17.10, I noticed that a few of my Steam games would not launch. Seems to be the ones from Feral Interactive that I own. I looked up the issue and it seems to stem from the updated version of openssl. Is there a way that I can install some compatibility version of openssl or downgrade the package?
[12:16] <lotuspsychje> !info openssl
[12:16] <ubottu> openssl (source: openssl): Secure Sockets Layer toolkit - cryptographic utility. In component main, is standard. Version 1.0.2g-1ubuntu13 (artful), package size 493 kB, installed size 997 kB
[12:16] <lotuspsychje> ballyhoo: its not very recommended to mix package versions on specific ubuntu version
[12:16] <lotuspsychje> ballyhoo: perhaps make a new !bug for it?
[12:17] <lotuspsychje> ballyhoo: system up to date also?
[12:20] <ballyhoo> Yeah, the system is up to date. I saw that people on Arch were using an openssl-1.0-compat package that solved the problem for them. I couldn't find an equivalent package for Ubuntu.
[12:21] <ballyhoo> I'll see if there's an existing bug for it and if there isn't one I'll create a new one.
[12:22] <lotuspsychje> ballyhoo: nice, tnx for helping the community
[12:23] <lotuspsychje> ballyhoo: you sure its not related to Xwayland or mesa or something?
[12:23] <ballyhoo> I'm currently at work, so I don't have the error with me. It was something to do with a curl function calling openssl, I believe.
[12:24] <lotuspsychje> weird
[12:24] <ballyhoo> I was using the Steam runtime, but I guess it relies on the system's openssl rather than one in the runtime.
[12:24] <lotuspsychje> i see
[12:25] <lotuspsychje> something like this ballyhoo ?
[12:25] <lotuspsychje> https://steamcommunity.com/app/319630/discussions/1/359543951729530270/
[12:26] <ballyhoo> Bah! Work seems to have blocked Steam.
[12:26] <ballyhoo> What do they think we're gonna do? Play Civ all day? (hint: we would)
[12:26] <lotuspsychje> lol
[12:27] <lotuspsychje> cant find existing bugs about it, might be real helpfull you launch it
[12:29] <d_1_stortion> HI!
[12:29] <d_1_stortion> anyone know how to install wine--devel on ubuntu 17.10?
[12:30] <Faux> wine-development?
[12:30] <d_1_stortion> it doesnt install a gui
[12:36] <Faux> I have no idea what you're expecting, sorry.
[12:36] <d_1_stortion> it's now showing in applications menu, and it's not really working
[12:36] <lotuspsychje> !info wine1.6-dev
[12:37] <ubottu> wine1.6-dev (source: wine1.6): Windows API implementation (transitional package development tools). In component universe, is optional. Version 1:1.8.4ubuntu1 (artful), package size 1 kB, installed size 8 kB (Only available for i386; amd64)
[12:37] <Faux> I believe that's transitional (i.e. doesn't do anything).
[12:38] <lotuspsychje> kk
[19:26] <paul_> hi, is there a link with instructions to switch from 17.04 (unity) to 17.10 (gnome) via terminal anywhere, also would doing this put me on beta release moving automatically to the full release or would i have to re-flash my laptop?
[19:27] <ducasse> paul_: why not wait until 17.10 is released?
[19:27] <paul_> mainly boredom right now.
[19:28] <paul_> also ive switched from ubuntu studio and really wish i hadn't, im not a fan of unity
[19:29] <paul_> i like menu's rather than docks
[19:36] <ducasse> as i said in #ubuntu, it should switch you to the new gnome default environment, and if you keep updating you will get the final release
[19:37] <ducasse> and if the upgrade breaks you get to keep both pieces
[20:10] <maxb> Is there anyone else here using bluetooth audio on artful? I'm having issues (bug 1719210) and am wondering if I can get any corroboration one way or the other
[20:10] <ubottu> bug 1719210 in linux (Ubuntu) "Bluetooth audio to A2DP headset no longer works following upgrade from 4.12 to 4.13 in artful" [Medium,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1719210
