[07:57] <gordonjcp> sarma[m]: wow, that doesn't look suspect at all
[08:27] <karjala_> Hello. Has anyone tried Ubuntu MATE on a Dell Latitude 5580 laptop?
[08:27] <karjala_> I'm thinking of buying that
[08:32] <projekt> Hello
[09:51] <ouroumov> karjala_, we have no match on the forum for this hardware, but usually DELL machines work well with Ubuntu
[09:52] <ouroumov> karjala_, to the possible exception of touchscreens
[09:52] <karjala_> They sell this particular laptop with Ubuntu Classic, but I don't know whether they require a custom version of Ubuntu, and whether drivers are needed which will only work with UBuntu Classic
[09:52] <karjala_> I don't like touchscreens anyway
[09:53] <karjala_> I guess I'll call them and ask
[09:53] <karjala_> If the unmodified Ubuntu Classic works, then MATE should work too, right?
[10:01] <diogenes_> karjala_, what about system 76?
[10:02] <karjala_> I'd like to test its keyboard before buying it, and I can't do that with system76.
[10:03] <diogenes_> why you can't?
[10:03] <karjala_> because I can't find it in shops to try it
[10:03] <karjala_> can you try it?
[10:03] <karjala_> how?
[10:04] <diogenes_> wahta re you afraid of? that the keyboard will not function properly? they come with a warranty
[10:04] <karjala_> that I might not like it, just like I don't like Dell Inspiron's keyboard
[10:04] <sixwheeledbeast> I have installed U-M to many dell laptops with minimal issues
[10:04] <karjala_> it misses keystrokes
[10:05] <karjala_> ok
[10:05] <sixwheeledbeast> I have an inspirion with MATE never had keyboard issues either
[10:06] <karjala_> I have an inspiron, and don't like its keyboard
[10:07] <sixwheeledbeast> Only issue on the inspirion was with wifi drivers OOTB, but I have had them working with both ndiswrapper and open drivers.
 If the unmodified Ubuntu Classic works, then MATE should work too, right? -> Yes. Same kernel.
[11:12] <usuario> hi
[13:45] <native>  hi all
[13:46] <diogenes_> hi you
[14:45] <jrj> hi diogenes_
[14:45] <jrj> I settled on the setup you recommended
[14:45] <diogenes_> jrj, what setup?
[14:45] <jrj> Gedit+Cobalt theme. Works superfast an is nice to look at
[14:46] <diogenes_> oh that one, of course it looks nice
[14:46] <jrj> Nice coding environment
[14:47] <diogenes_> indeed, I'd never want anything else
[14:47] <jrj> No need to overcomplicate things
[14:48] <diogenes_> agree
[14:59] <jrj> Im now ready for a clean install, with a much more slim-line setup/config
[14:59] <jrj> Its Gonna be really nice
[16:05] <riban> I've got a problem with the update from 17.04 to 17.10 where the screen is mostly black and corrupt on my NC10 Intel based netbook (reported as bug 1728565). Any one have any clues how to diagnose and fix this? The console screen is also corrupted but I can probably SSH in.
[16:49] <alkisg> riban: does a 17.10 live cd work?
[16:51] <riban> I will try live CD when I get home.
[16:52] <riban> ...if I can find something to burn it on now I don't have a laptop!!!!
[16:52] <alkisg> Hehe... or a live usb stick
