[00:03] <krabador> jagman: response.
[00:03] <jagman> I installed lubuntu to a different pc from fotos but same problem
[00:03] <jagman> to me
[00:03] <jagman> I installed from usb live stick
[00:04] <jagman> to my pc
[00:04] <jagman> the fotos are not from my pc
[00:04] <jagman> but my pc does the same bug
[00:04] <krabador> then, on grub screen, you can press "e" , write nomodeset right of quiet splash, press f10
[00:05] <jagman> but there is not grub screen
[00:05] <jagman> it opens lubuntu logo
[00:05] <jagman> in fact no logo
[00:05] <jagman> it changes some colors
[00:05] <jagman> the screen
[00:05] <jagman> and then happen 80% black 20%normal screen
[00:06] <krabador> then you can presso right shift, after pc turned on
[00:06] <krabador> *press
[00:06] <jagman> and what will happen?
[00:06] <krabador> grub appears.
[00:06] <jagman> and what should I type in grub?
[00:06] <krabador> what i wrote.
[00:07] <krabador> can you go back with lines?
[00:08] <jagman> yes
[00:08] <jagman> I type nomodeset?
[00:08] <krabador> good
[00:09] <jagman> ok I try it. I press right shift after finishing bios screen?
[00:09] <krabador> yes
[00:09] <jagman> ok
[00:09] <jagman> I ll be back I go to try it
[00:10] <krabador> good
[00:11] <jagman> it has some parameters and where do I type nomodeset?
[00:11] <jagman> it has many parameters on screen
[00:12] <krabador> then, on grub screen, you can press "e" , write nomodeset right of quiet splash, press f10
[00:12] <jagman> where is the quiet splash
[00:13] <jagman> you mean first line?
[00:13] <jagman> I dont see any parameter called quiet splash
[00:14] <krabador> have you press "e" ?
[00:14] <jagman> yes appears a code
[00:14] <jagman> with some parameters
[00:15] <jagman> but there is not any parameter called quiet splash
[00:15] <krabador> then you've https://www.howtoforge.com/images/kernel_boot-parameter_edit/pic_3.jpg
[00:15] <krabador> someting like that
[00:17] <jagman> ok wait I went back choosed ubuntu and pressed e and I found quiet splash
[00:17] <krabador> great
[00:18] <jagman> ok I typed nomodeset without $ symbol in front of it
[00:18] <jagman> do I need to type this $ symbol?
[00:19] <jagman> ok now I will press f10 without typing $
[00:21] <krabador> nomodeset must be write right of quiet splash, or you can del quiet splash and write nomodeset
[00:21] <krabador> with a space before
[00:21] <jagman> ok I am in
[00:21] <jagman> it worked
[00:21] <krabador> great.
[00:21] <jagman> but the screen analysis is a little odd
[00:22] <jagman> should I change grub again now? from leafpad?
[00:22] <krabador> to have nomodeset permanently, you must mod /etc/default/grub
[00:23] <jagman> in comments they say also to add in grub GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=text
[00:23] <jagman> should I add this?
[00:23] <krabador> GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"
[00:23] <krabador> add on it
[00:24] <krabador> save , and sudo update-grub
[00:25] <jagman> ok I will add the line you say but do I need the previous line I said?
[00:25] <jagman> or only the line you said?
[00:25] <jagman> should I type both lines?
[00:25] <jagman> or only the last one
[00:25] <krabador> sudo leafpad /etc/default/grub
[00:25] <jagman> yes
[00:26] <jagman> and after that do I need GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=text or not?
[00:26] <krabador> you'll find the line i tell
[00:26] <krabador> you must mod only this line
[00:26] <krabador> save
[00:26] <krabador> sudo update-grub
[00:26] <krabador> enjoy.
[00:26] <jagman> ok i will try it and come back
[00:26] <krabador> great.
[00:34] <jagman> krabador I found line GRUB_CMDLINK_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"
[00:34] <jagman> should I change this line
[00:35] <jagman> and put nomodeset instead of quiet splash?
[00:38] <krabador> yes
[00:39] <krabador> to the right, before "
[00:44] <jagman> ok I did it and worked
[00:45] <jagman> now I must set the screen resolution because it is a little odd
[00:45] <jagman> it is stretched horizontally
[00:53] <jagman> I use some icon sets from noobs lab to get better appearance
[01:40] <jagman> how to find my native screen resolution
[08:26] <Marcello> Ciao mi chiamo Marcello.. C'è qualcuno?
[08:27] <Marcello> Ho problemi con la connessione wireless
[10:21] <jagman> hi guys my screen is stretched, how can i find the native resolution of screen and switch to native resolution?
[10:23] <hateball> jagman: run "xrandr", the native resolution should be marked with a *
[10:24] <jagman> should I install xrandr? or it is already installed in lubuntu?
[10:27] <jagman> it says that xrandr is not supported but is replaced by x11-xserver-utils
[10:28] <jagman> but it say all these packages are missing or are old
[10:28] <jagman> I use lubuntu 17.10
[10:33] <hateball> hmmm
[11:05] <jagman> hateball my pc shows that resolution is 800x600 and image is stretched, can I change the 800x600 to native resolution?
[11:12] <JohnDoe_71Rus> When I used the virtual machine, the maximum resolution was limited by the size of the video memory. do you use the built-in graphics?
[11:19] <hateball> jagman: is this a fresh install where things arent working? what gpu/driver?
[11:22] <jagman> hateball yes fresh install
[11:23] <jagman> the laptop is U A100
[11:23] <jagman> MSI wind
[11:25] <hateball> jagman: this one? https://www.msi.com/Laptop/U100/Specification
[11:25] <jagman> hateball yes
[11:26] <jagman> it was fine with previous version of lubuntu but in the new version had problems
[11:26] <hateball> probably a regression in the intel gpu driver then
[11:27] <hateball> jagman: I guess you can try setting a custom resolution like described here https://askubuntu.com/questions/377937/how-to-set-a-custom-resolution
[11:28] <hateball> oh wait, you said xrandr wasnt working
[11:28] <JohnDoe_71Rus> hi is not alone https://askubuntu.com/questions/968154/resolution-troubles-after-upgrading-to-ubuntu-17-10-xrandr-will-not-add-resolut
[11:29] <hateball> I suppose you could try booting an older kernel if you still have one installed
[11:34] <jagman> hateball I did fresh install and so far everything works but the screen resolution is 800x600
[11:35] <jagman> I have LXRandR  and not xrandr
[11:36] <hateball> "This tool doesn't aim to be a full randr frontend. If you need the full power
[11:36] <hateball>  of RandR, get xrandr (console) or grandr (GUI) and read some tutorials."
[11:38] <hateball> that's what "apt show lxrandr" says
[11:39] <hateball> I dont think there should be any breakage from manually installing xrandr, but that's not much help if it is a kernel regression preventing higher resolution
[13:25] <Guest23160> Hi there

[17:22] <Hola> Hello. Good afternoon from this part of the globe. Can any one tell me how to acces into the sound propierties on lubuntu 14.04?
[17:28] <JohnDoe_71Rus> pavucontrol
[17:29] <JohnDoe_71Rus> https://i.stack.imgur.com/qf4jG.png
[17:31] <Hola> Installed and running. That's what i was looking for. Thank you very much!
[17:31] <wxl> the "out of the box" method is `alsamixer` in terminal, but pavucontrol is perhaps more user friendly
[17:34] <Hola> Alsamixer, ok, thank you too
[17:39] <Hola> Two great solutions. Thank you.
[17:45] <krytarik> jagman: So I suggested yesterday to add "GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=text" to your Grub config, to work around LP bug 1724639 you were seeing, but you ended up adding "nomodeset" to the boot parameters instead or along with it - was the screen resolution fine before you did the latter?
[17:46] <jagman> Krytarik I added also what you said
[17:46] <jagman> I was not sure about resolution because it was black screen before to configure grub
[17:47] <krytarik> Try dropping the "nomodeset" parameter and see how it goes.
[17:49] <jagman> ok I will do this but should I replace "nomodeset" with "quiet splash" as it was before?
[17:49] <jagman> or comment the whole line?
[17:51] <jagman> ok I will replace nomodeset with quiet splash as it was initially
[17:52] <jagman> wait a few minutes to fix it and I come back
[17:57] <jagman> I say GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" ok?
[17:57] <krytarik> Yep.
[18:01] <jagman> ok analysis is correct now
[18:01] <jagman> the screen resolution ok
[18:01] <krytarik> Cool.
[18:13] <jagman> thank you all for your help
[18:17] <krytarik> Welcome.
[19:30] <jagman> how can I open a folder as sudo in GUI ?
[19:30] <oskar> can i install lubuntu from linux mint without cd/usb?
[19:32] <jagman> I want to cut and paste an image from one folder to another folder but gui doesnt allow me because I dont have typed sudo
[19:32] <jagman> how can I do this
[19:34] <krytarik> jagman: Install the package "gksu", then do "gksudo pcmanfm" and go from there.
[19:34] <krytarik> !sudo
[19:36] <jagman> ok I install it
[19:39] <jagman> ok it worked fine
[19:39] <krytarik> Good.
[22:19] <Prest0o> how safe can i be thinking lubuntu by default is virus free
[22:19] <Prest0o> 100%?
[23:40] <BBBRian> hello I need help  support with linux mint reboot issues
[23:41] <wxl> wouldn't you go to the linux mint channel for that? XD
[23:41] <BBBRian> yes, is XD the channel name?
[23:41] <wxl> i haven't the slightest
[23:42] <wxl> looks like ##linuxmint
[23:42] <wxl> but official channel is #linuxmint-help at irc.spotchat.org
[23:42] <BBBRian> thank you
[23:55] <cristian_c> wxl, hello
[23:55] <wxl> o/
[23:55] <cristian_c> wxl, somtime ago you suggested me to
[23:56] <cristian_c> suggested making a blog page
[23:57] <cristian_c> about a workaround for mplayer
[23:58] <cristian_c> sending something to lubuntu mailing list
[23:58] <cristian_c> or making a wiki page or contribution to the wiki
[23:59] <wxl> that sounds like a lot of different things
[23:59] <cristian_c> I had an issue with mplayer, some time ago i've solved it finding a workaround
[23:59] <cristian_c> so I'm back here
[23:59] <cristian_c> to give the solution
