[04:55] <doofy> thx a lot for nvidia3.40 in kernel 4.13 to the developer
[05:47] <JAIS> OK
[05:47] <JAIS> HI
[05:48] <JAIS> HOW CAN SEE CCTV IN LUBUNTU
[05:49] <JAIS> HI
[05:57] <JAIS> HI
[06:07] <JohnDoe_71Rus> cctv - analog?
[06:36] <Shawn|C2Duo> howdy
[06:36] <Shawn|C2Duo> can someone help me figure out why this breaks when trying to make a install?
[06:37] <Shawn|C2Duo> http://stereograph.sourceforge.net/download.html
[06:40] <JohnDoe_71Rus> wow. cool prog
[06:43] <Shawn|C2Duo> yea, trying to install it
[06:44] <Shawn|C2Duo> every time I use the command sudo make as told in INSTALL. it fails
[06:46] <Shawn|C2Duo> brb restarting
[06:51] <Shawn|C2Duo> back
[06:53] <JohnDoe_71Rus> first make without sudo
[06:55] <Shawn|C2Duo> I did, it failed
[06:55] <Shawn|C2Duo> with permission denieds
[06:55] <Shawn|C2Duo> *permission denied errors
[06:58] <JohnDoe_71Rus> unpack source to you home dir
[06:59] <Shawn|C2Duo> I sudo tar -xzvf stereo~ in my home directory already
[07:00] <Shawn|C2Duo> and read README and INSTALL
[07:00] <hateball> Why would you use use sudo?
[07:00] <Shawn|C2Duo> it wont even compile fresh out of the box, are there prerequisites that I'm unaware of?
[07:00] <JohnDoe_71Rus> without sudo. now the sourse owner is root
[07:00] <Shawn|C2Duo> ohh oops
[07:01] <Shawn|C2Duo> I just removed the directory and did it as owner
[07:01] <JohnDoe_71Rus> you can use 2-panel file manager, mc or double commander
[07:01] <Shawn|C2Duo> tried running make and it failed
[07:02] <JohnDoe_71Rus> php.h not found?
[07:02] <JohnDoe_71Rus> *png.h
[07:04] <Shawn|C2Duo> libpng16 is up to date
[07:05] <JohnDoe_71Rus> you need libpng16-dev
[07:07] <Shawn|C2Duo> I do?
[07:07] <JohnDoe_71Rus> install it
[07:08] <JohnDoe_71Rus> then it need дшиозуп*-dev and then i stuck with err
[07:08] <JohnDoe_71Rus> *libjpeg
[07:08] <TheSchaf> good luck getting this to run
[07:09] <Shawn|C2Duo> will it work TheSchaf ?
[07:09] <TheSchaf> the last update was 2003 :D
[07:09] <Shawn|C2Duo> libpng-dev is already at its newest
[07:10] <Shawn|C2Duo> so not even the source will work?
[07:10] <TheSchaf> try it :)
[07:10] <TheSchaf> it is likely that things have changed in 14 years though
[07:11] <Shawn|C2Duo> https://pastebin.com/66YrjHBk
[07:11] <Shawn|C2Duo> forgot to share that
[07:11] <Shawn|C2Duo> thats the reading in the directory I made as owner
[07:11] <Shawn|C2Duo> *tarballed as owner
[07:12] <TheSchaf> thats because png_info was removed in libpng 1.5.0
[07:12] <JohnDoe_71Rus> try ask autor by email
[07:13] <TheSchaf> see http://www.libpng.org/pub/png/libpng-manual.txt and look for II. Structures
[07:13] <TheSchaf> or try using older libpng :P
[07:14] <TheSchaf> older than 1.5.0
[07:14] <TheSchaf> or update the code
[07:14] <Shawn|C2Duo> how would one do that?
[07:15] <TheSchaf> learn how to program :
[07:15] <TheSchaf> :p
[07:17] <Shawn|C2Duo> :(
[07:17] <JohnDoe_71Rus> this is open source :(
[07:18] <TheSchaf> open gfxio.c and go to line 393
[07:18] <Shawn|C2Duo> I was only using 0.30a
[07:18] <Shawn|C2Duo> should I try 0.33b?
[07:19] <JohnDoe_71Rus> i try 0.33 , get err
[07:19] <TheSchaf> replace if (setjmp(png_ptr->jmpbuf)) { with if (setjmp(png_jmpbuf(png_ptr))) {
[07:19] <TheSchaf> that should maybe fix the error
[07:20] <Shawn|C2Duo> I told gedit to go to line 393, but I can't tell which line is
[07:20] <TheSchaf> well then search for it
[07:20] <TheSchaf> should be gfxio.c
[07:20] <TheSchaf> near 393 :P
[07:20] <TheSchaf> according to the error
[07:21] <Shawn|C2Duo> I found it, overwrote it, and saved
[07:21] <Shawn|C2Duo> tried make
[07:21] <Shawn|C2Duo> theres still lots of errors
[07:21] <JohnDoe_71Rus> yep
[07:21] <Shawn|C2Duo> would you like to try compiling it?
[07:22] <TheSchaf> paste other errors
[07:23] <Shawn|C2Duo> https://pastebin.com/rstsnJjK
[07:23] <Shawn|C2Duo> theres the new log
[07:24] <TheSchaf> no, its not
[07:24] <TheSchaf> well maybe
[07:24] <TheSchaf> it has the same error in 493
[07:24] <TheSchaf> so do the same thing there
[07:25] <Shawn|C2Duo> okay
[07:25] <Shawn|C2Duo> my ls no longer shows colors in that directory :(
[07:28] <Shawn|C2Duo> gcc errors
[07:29] <Shawn|C2Duo> https://hastebin.com/yasupuwihe
[07:29] <Shawn|C2Duo> theres the new error
[07:29] <TheSchaf> failing to link libpng
[07:30] <TheSchaf> and libz
[07:30] <Shawn|C2Duo> oh
[07:30] <TheSchaf> did you install them?
[07:31] <Shawn|C2Duo> libz?
[07:31] <TheSchaf> apt-get install zlib1g
[07:31] <TheSchaf> ?
[07:32] <Shawn|C2Duo> already at its newest
[07:32] <Shawn|C2Duo> *version
[07:32] <TheSchaf> so maybe something is wrong with the library path
[07:32] <Shawn|C2Duo> which library?
[07:32] <TheSchaf> can you find libpng.so?
[07:32] <TheSchaf> where it is on your system?
[07:32] <Shawn|C2Duo> how would I find that?
[07:33] <TheSchaf> dunno, sudo find / -name 'libpng.so' or something
[07:34] <Shawn|C2Duo> find: ‘/run/user/1000/gvfs’: Permission denied
[07:34] <Shawn|C2Duo>  /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpng.so
[07:34] <TheSchaf> mhh, so you are on 64bit?
[07:34] <Shawn|C2Duo> yes
[07:36] <Shawn|C2Duo> do I need to install the 32-bit version
[07:36] <Shawn|C2Duo> *?
[07:36] <TheSchaf> dunno :D
[07:36] <Shawn|C2Duo> would it work in this distribution version?
[07:37] <TheSchaf> i dont know why it looks in /usr/lib instead of the 64 bit one
[07:37] <TheSchaf> try opening the Makefile
[07:38] <Shawn|C2Duo> apt-get install zlib1g:i386 is already installed too
[07:38] <TheSchaf> look for LDFLAGS
[07:38] <TheSchaf> and add -L/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
[07:38] <TheSchaf> maybe that helps :p
[07:39] <Shawn|C2Duo> to which part?
[07:39] <TheSchaf> LDFLAGS
[07:40] <Shawn|C2Duo> of this line "LDFLAGS = -lm /usr/lib/libpng.so /usr/lib/libz.so"
[07:40] <Shawn|C2Duo> ?
[07:40] <TheSchaf> yes, change the paths there
[07:40] <TheSchaf> i think the 33b makefile is more up to date
[07:40] <TheSchaf> it doesnt have hardcoded path
[07:40] <Shawn|C2Duo> so, remove the 2nd, and overwrite the first one?
[07:40] <TheSchaf> well, there just change the path
[07:40] <TheSchaf> to the correct path
[07:40] <JohnDoe_71Rus> http://paste.ubuntu.com/25807688/ 0.33b
[07:40] <TheSchaf> use find to locate the librarys
[07:41] <TheSchaf> and replace the path
[07:41] <Shawn|C2Duo> should I go ahead and try 0.33b?
[07:41] <Shawn|C2Duo> I will make a seperate directory for it
[07:41] <TheSchaf> nah stay with this for now
[07:41] <TheSchaf> JohnDoe_71Rus: looks like it fails to resolve the symbols from the libraries
[07:42] <JohnDoe_71Rus> i find that need correct make file
[07:42] <JohnDoe_71Rus> but don't know how
[07:43] <Shawn|C2Duo> okay
[07:43] <Shawn|C2Duo> I just tried 0.33b in a seperate directory, ends with a fatal error
[07:43] <Shawn|C2Duo> back to 0.30a
[07:46] <Shawn|C2Duo> heres the new log from after replacing LDFLAGS https://hastebin.com/ikawuvolid
[07:47] <Shawn|C2Duo> oh oops
[07:47] <JohnDoe_71Rus> Shawn|C2Duo: the same as 0.33b
[07:48] <Shawn|C2Duo> you got the same thing?
[07:48] <JohnDoe_71Rus> at the end of log
[07:48] <Shawn|C2Duo> ah
[07:48] <Shawn|C2Duo> so, on LDFLAGS line, was I supposed to remove "-lm /usr/lib/libpng.so /usr/lib/libz.so" with "-L/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu"?
[07:49] <Shawn|C2Duo> or just "/usr/lib/libz.so"?
[07:50] <Shawn|C2Duo> cvs tree no longer exists for it :O
[07:57] <Shawn|C2Duo> well OpenStereogram worked
[08:05] <Shawn|C2Duo> this may work aswell http://k3dcad.sourceforge.net/
[08:06] <Shawn|C2Duo> this is openstereogram https://sites.google.com/site/gfcaprojects/openstereogram
[08:06] <Shawn|C2Duo> I got it to open, I dont have a depth map generator, so going to try k3kad
[08:12] <Shawn|C2Duo> so this is an error after running sh ./configure https://hastebin.com/idehusodeq
[08:12] <Shawn|C2Duo> following INSTALL instructions
[08:13] <Shawn|C2Duo> so lubuntu x directory has changed?
[08:14] <JohnDoe_71Rus> https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=23570
[08:15] <JohnDoe_71Rus> for build needed *-dev packages
[08:17] <Shawn|C2Duo> x-dev is not a package name :O
[08:19] <Shawn|C2Duo> so I got libx11-dev installed, but cannot find an x-dev
[08:21] <JohnDoe_71Rus> xserver-xorg-dev ?
[08:21] <JohnDoe_71Rus> or xorg-dev.
[08:21] <Shawn|C2Duo> I will try that
[08:21] <Shawn|C2Duo> xlibs-dev isn't one either
[08:23] <Shawn|C2Duo> installed both of what you mentioned
[08:24] <JohnDoe_71Rus> run configure - err - find *-dev package in google - install - run configure - err - repeat
[08:25] <JohnDoe_71Rus> :)
[08:25] <Shawn|C2Duo> does the package Qt 2.2.2 exist anymore?
[08:25] <Shawn|C2Duo> https://hastebin.com/kidewemeja
[08:25] <Shawn|C2Duo> it fails where theres no Qt package
[08:26] <JohnDoe_71Rus> (>= Qt 2.2.2) more or equal
[08:26] <Shawn|C2Duo> right, does that still exist?
[08:26] <JohnDoe_71Rus> 2.3 3юч
[08:26] <Shawn|C2Duo> I just tried sudo apt-get install Qt, and nothing matches
[08:26] <JohnDoe_71Rus> *3.x
[08:27] <JohnDoe_71Rus> libqt
[08:27] <Shawn|C2Duo> nope
[08:28] <Shawn|C2Duo> I searched the apt repository for libqt, theres a lot of em
[08:29] <Shawn|C2Duo> could this be it? libqt53dcore5/zesty 5.7.1+dfsg-1ubuntu1~2 amd64
[08:29] <Shawn|C2Duo>   Qt 3D module
[08:29] <JohnDoe_71Rus> be guided by the packages installed in the system
[08:29] <Shawn|C2Duo> what?
[08:30] <JohnDoe_71Rus> if present libqt53dcore5 then you need libqt53dcore5-dev
[08:30] <Shawn|C2Duo> is that what its referring to>
[08:30] <Shawn|C2Duo> *?
[08:36] <Shawn|C2Duo> libqt53drender5-gles failed, I reported it :O
[08:37] <Shawn|C2Duo> with libqt5 installed, it can't find it
[08:37] <Shawn|C2Duo> the Configure program for k3cad
[08:38] <JohnDoe_71Rus> libqt5-dev?
[08:39] <Shawn|C2Duo> I will try that
[08:39] <Shawn|C2Duo> doesn't exist
[08:43] <Shawn|C2Duo> found the proper qt package :D
[08:43] <Shawn|C2Duo> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/zesty/+package/qt5-default
[08:43] <Shawn|C2Duo> installed that package and still got

[08:48] <Shawn|C2Duo> JohnDoe_71Rus, do you know how to change the amount of workspaces present?
[08:49] <Shawn|C2Duo> for lubuntu
[08:51] <Shawn|C2Duo> ahh checking for Qt... configure: error: Qt (>= Qt 2.2.2) (headers and libraries) not found. Please check your installation!
[08:51] <Shawn|C2Duo> oops
[08:52] <Shawn|C2Duo> I meant https://askubuntu.com/questions/616522/how-can-i-remove-the-second-desktop-on-lubuntu
[08:52] <JohnDoe_71Rus> https://packages.ubuntu.com/zesty/qt5-default do you install *-dev packages?
[08:52] <Shawn|C2Duo> I did a search, theres no dev package
[08:53] <JohnDoe_71Rus> install it
[08:54] <Shawn|C2Duo> I just ran "sudo apt-get install *-dev" and got errors at the end
[08:54] <JohnDoe_71Rus> но
[08:54] <Shawn|C2Duo> ?
[08:54] <Shawn|C2Duo> I don't know cyrillic
[08:54] <JohnDoe_71Rus> qtbase5-dev qtbase5-dev-tools
[08:55] <Shawn|C2Duo> ohh
[08:55] <Shawn|C2Duo> both of those are repsent
[08:55] <Shawn|C2Duo> *present
[08:56] <Shawn|C2Duo> and still the same ./configure error
[08:56] <JohnDoe_71Rus> may be 5.7 is too much
[08:58] <JohnDoe_71Rus> when you get an error configuration you need to look for packages with a prefix lib* and the end -dev
[09:00] <Shawn|C2Duo> ah
[09:00] <Shawn|C2Duo> I installed all of qt5-qmake..
[09:00] <Shawn|C2Duo> same qt error
[09:04] <Shawn|C2Duo> oh theres a lot of system updates, updating
[09:07] <Shawn|C2Duo> going to reboot, will be back in a min
[09:11] <Shawn|C2Duo> back
[09:13] <Shawn|C2Duo> why does it still expect qt 2.2.2?
[09:14] <JohnDoe_71Rus> better ask autor
[09:15] <Shawn|C2Duo> ?
[09:15] <Shawn|C2Duo> of what?
[09:15] <Shawn|C2Duo> k3dcad is from 2001
[09:15] <Shawn|C2Duo> http://k3dcad.sourceforge.net/
[09:15] <JohnDoe_71Rus> yep, k3dcad
[09:16] <JohnDoe_71Rus> or, study programming and fix source to build with modern QT
[09:20] <Shawn|C2Duo> is 2.2.2 still in there?
[09:21] <Shawn|C2Duo> might you be able to help me a bit with looking for the problem JohnDoe_71Rus ?
[09:23] <JohnDoe_71Rus> I myself do not understand well
[09:24] <Shawn|C2Duo> oh
[09:24] <Shawn|C2Duo> well, this is the catified output http://termbin.com/obvs
[09:27] <Shawn|C2Duo> it wont let me edit configure in gedit
[09:28] <Shawn|C2Duo> I fixed the error in opening the document easily
[09:28] <Shawn|C2Duo> but it wont let me backspace on qt2
[09:28] <Shawn|C2Duo> I want to replace what returns as qt2 in configure with qt5
[09:28] <Shawn|C2Duo> might this fix the problem JohnDoe_71Rus ?
[09:29] <JohnDoe_71Rus> no. no. don't break
[09:30] <Shawn|C2Duo> ?
[09:30] <Shawn|C2Duo> this may work, its a configure file for k3dcad
[09:34] <Shawn|C2Duo> JohnDoe_71Rus, those 2 qt2 specific pointers could be whats breaking this configure script
[09:34] <Shawn|C2Duo> *what is
[09:34] <JohnDoe_71Rus> sorry, i don't know
[09:34] <Shawn|C2Duo> you don't know how to edit a configure file?
[09:35] <JohnDoe_71Rus> i think you whant to edit system qt5  files
[09:37] <Shawn|C2Duo> nooo
[09:38] <Shawn|C2Duo> the k3dcad directory has a configure file it wants me to run to acclimate an install for my system
[09:38] <Shawn|C2Duo> and in that configure script is a specific qt2 pointer, so its looking for qt2 specifically
[09:48] <Shawn|C2Duo> no responses :(
[09:49] <JohnDoe_71Rus> sorry. i don't know rules how to fix
[09:49] <Shawn|C2Duo> what rules?
[09:50] <Shawn|C2Duo> TheSchaf, are you still around?
[09:50] <Shawn|C2Duo> JohnDoe_71Rus, you mean you dont know how to edit files?
[09:51] <JohnDoe_71Rus> edit simply. F4 and forward. I do not know what to write specifically
[10:00] <Shawn|C2Duo> *sigh*
[10:00] <TheSchaf> what is the current issue?
[10:02] <JohnDoe_71Rus> hi find oldest sources, they need checking for Qt... configure: error: Qt (>= Qt 2.2.2) (headers and libraries) not found
[10:02] <Shawn|C2Duo> I can't edit the configure file in k3dcad's directory with gedit
[10:02] <JohnDoe_71Rus> he has qt5.7
[10:03] <Shawn|C2Duo> the configure file is looking specifically for qt2 in 2 placs of the script
[10:03] <Shawn|C2Duo> *places
[10:03] <Shawn|C2Duo> TheSchaf, this is the configure file catified http://termbin.com/obvs
[10:04] <JohnDoe_71Rus> I think it's not so simple, change 2.2 to 5.7
[10:05] <Shawn|C2Duo> but its worth testing
[10:07] <JohnDoe_71Rus> and what is you problem? f4 - edit - save
[10:07] <Shawn|C2Duo> I have to hit f4 in the file?
[10:07] <JohnDoe_71Rus> use filemanager
[10:08] <JohnDoe_71Rus> f4= edit file
[10:09] <Shawn|C2Duo> okay, I have pcmanfm
[10:10] <JohnDoe_71Rus> so right mouse button - open with - leathpad
[10:11] <Shawn|C2Duo> leafpad is working
[10:13] <Shawn|C2Duo> wel..
[10:13] <TheSchaf> why are you guys keen on using 2000ish software :P
[10:13] <Shawn|C2Duo> *well, changing qt2 entries to qt5 didn't help
[10:14] <Shawn|C2Duo> TheSchaf, this is the only other stereogram creating software for linux that I can find
[10:14] <Shawn|C2Duo> I run old software on windows too
[10:14] <TheSchaf> yes, windows makes it easier :P
[10:14] <Shawn|C2Duo> windows isn't as great as linux
[10:14] <JohnDoe_71Rus> Do you know modern analogues?
[10:14] <Shawn|C2Duo> in certain areas
[10:15] <Shawn|C2Duo> wish folks would acclimate to linux..
[10:16] <Shawn|C2Duo> JohnDoe_71Rus, what do you mean by modern analogues?
[10:16] <JohnDoe_71Rus> stereogram creating software. not from 20 century
[10:17] <Shawn|C2Duo> I like autosterengrams
[10:17] <Shawn|C2Duo> * auto stereograms
[10:31] <Shawn|C2Duo> TheSchaf, ?
[10:39] <Shawn|C2Duo> it changes...
[10:58] <Shawn|C2Duo> brb

[14:25] <slipttees> hi
[14:26] <slipttees>  How to add the "empty trash" option to the desktop trash icon and "Eject" to volumes on the desktop using the right click both?
[14:29] <leszek> slipttees: I am not sure if this is possible
[14:30] <leszek> is the trash icon on the desktop a link to trash:// ?
[14:31] <slipttees> leszek: trash:///
[14:31] <leszek> then it is ok. It isn't showing an empty trash in the right click menu?
[14:31] <slipttees> leszek: yes
[14:32] <slipttees> leszek: volumes devices not too
[14:32] <leszek> then its a limitation of the pcmanfm filemanager
[14:32] <slipttees> leszek: :-(
[14:33] <leszek> it isn't in development anymore as far as I am aware as pcmanfm-qt is the future aswell as lxqt
[14:34] <slipttees> leszek: thanks for solved my question! :-)
[14:34] <leszek> np
[14:37] <slipttees> leszek: I can replace pcmanfm for other filemanager?
[14:38] <leszek> slipttees: yep you can. Nautilus for example. Though it will use more RAM I guess and the configuration dialog for setting the background might not work
[14:38] <slipttees> leszek: purge pcmanfm and install tunar
[14:39] <slipttees> thunar*
[14:41] <leszek> thunar has no desktop component
[14:41] <leszek> so you can't use it as a desktop
[17:15] <newgentoouser> Hey guys, I just did a system update and now neither firefox nor the synaptic package manager starts. There's a loading icon and then it disappears. When I try to start firefox from the terminal I get no output at all, and nothing happens. It doesn't show up in the process list either
[17:24] <newgentoouser> Just tried chromium-browser, same problem
[17:24] <wxl> newgentoouser: does anything work?
[17:25] <newgentoouser> wxl: I can open up a terminal, some system settings seem to work fine, pcmanfm works
[17:26] <newgentoouser> wxl: update gui doesn't work, package manager doesn't work, browser don't work, network connections gui doesn't seem to work
[17:26] <wxl> newgentoouser: that's just baffling. dumb question. have you tried rebooting?
[17:26] <newgentoouser> wxl: several times
[17:26] <newgentoouser> it worked fine before I did a system update
[17:27] <wxl> newgentoouser: bizarre. if you run synaptic in the terminal, what happens?
[17:27] <newgentoouser> wxl: no output, it just goes to the next line
[17:27] <newgentoouser> no errors or anything, nothing happens
[17:30] <newgentoouser> wxl: I'll just try to reinstall
[17:30] <wxl> newgentoouser: you could always trace one of those processes. you familiar with that process?
[17:31] <newgentoouser> wxl: No I'm not. But I've already rebooted into the live cd, but if the problem persists after reinstallation, I can try that
[17:31] <newgentoouser> (it's fine, I don't have any important files on)
[17:36] <newgentoouser> Thanks for the help by the way
[17:36] <wxl> newgentoouser: for future reference https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Backtrace
[17:36] <newgentoouser> wxl: Thanks!
[17:36] <wxl> newgentoouser: np. good luck

[18:04] <Aeros> Hello. New to Lubuntu. From a web browser (Chromium), I need to import a file I do not have options to specify a path or choose my own directory, only a list of predefined folders. Any one know how I can modify the load/save dialog options?

[18:48] <russge> ciao
[21:10] <aeyesi> yo, anyone running lubuntu at 4K?
[21:10] <aeyesi> and anyone knows how to controll AMD bonaire ? (like VSYNC?)
[21:12] <lynorian> aeyesi, I don't know is the text too small for you?
[21:13] <aeyesi> @lynorian bassicaly everything is... 4K is so high that its just called HiDPI
[21:15] <lynorian> I don't know of any builtin support for scaling but you can make the fonts bigger by opening from the menu openbox configuration manager
[21:16] <aeyesi> that actually bad thing to do... umm ... you can set DPI in .Xresources
[21:16] <aeyesi> but it does not resolve everything
[21:16] <aeyesi> I am just curious if someone dived deeper into it
[21:17] <lynorian> aeyesi, I do not think so
[21:17] <lynorian> I don't have any monitors above 1920x1080
[21:18] <aeyesi> this is 3840x2160 ... fullHD half size in it so yeah
[21:18] <aeyesi> super tiny GUI
[21:18] <aeyesi> most of the world ain't ready for that
[21:19] <aeyesi> its even worse then u think :D avoid it if u can
[22:00] <LargePrime> made it
[22:00] <LargePrime> wahoo
[22:00] <LargePrime> openvpn is broke
[22:02] <wxl> works for me

[22:29] <wxl> cwhii: start by looking at your logs
[22:30] <wxl> specifically syslog and Xorg.0.log
[22:46] <cwhii> Thousands of lines. What am I looking since I do not know what normal looks like.
[22:46] <wxl> look for things related to the kernel driver (see `lspci -nnk` to find out what it is)
[22:46] <wxl> or look for EE lines in Xorg.0.log
[22:48] <wxl> you could `ssh` in to it, `tail -f` those two logs while reloading the kernel driver with `modprobe`
[22:51] <cwhii> No (EE). Bunch of (II) and (WW) Falling back to old probe method for... & missing fonts.
[22:57] <cwhii> I'm clueless on " reloading the kernel driver with `modprobe` "
[22:59] <wxl> have you figured out the kernel module being used?
[23:00] <cwhii> No. How?
[23:00] <wxl> `lspci -nnk`
[23:01] <wxl> line should start with some numbers and then "VGA compatible controller"
[23:01] <wxl> then it should say "Kernel driver in use" on a subsequent line
[23:01] <wxl> it's THAT that you want
[23:04] <cwhii> i915
[23:04] <wxl> so you want to first unload it:
[23:04] <wxl> `sudo modprobe -r i915`
[23:04] <wxl> then load it:
[23:04] <wxl> `sudo modprobe i915`
[23:06] <cwhii> cwhii@road:~$ sudo modprobe -r i915
[23:06] <cwhii> modprobe: FATAL: Module i915 is in use.
[23:07] <wxl> bah maybe that's not going to work.
[23:07] <wxl> so `grep` syslog for instances of i915 and see if there's any errors there
[23:13] <cwhii> https://thepasteb.in/p/8qhOpovQYwqc0
[23:14] <wxl> that is quite impressive XD
[23:17] <wxl> i'm at a loss
[23:18] <wxl> you should ask at #ubuntu. this should not be a lubuntu specific problem
[23:18] <wxl> this is core kernel stuff
[23:25] <cwhii> The ubuntu notes for 17.10 say there is a change to using wayland which I understood to mean not x-windows any more but my lubuntu system is running x.
[23:38] <Unit193> That's for Ubuntu proper/GNOME, not Lubuntu/LXDE.
[23:39] <wxl> yeah and it's irrelevant. this is CORE stuff, not related to the display server
[23:41] <wxl> even it were the case, Xorg is still available on installed systems
