[06:11] <mate|378> hi all
[06:48] <ubmt> hello boys and girls
[06:52] <diogenes_> hello boy or girl
[06:53] <eikin> Hi to everyone. 'I'm a newbee to Ubuntu-Mate.
[06:53] <diogenes_> new bee? good not a new wasp
[06:54] <eikin> I'm facing some issue and have some question maybe some  of you guys can help
[06:55] <eikin> Yesterday I bought a HP LaserjetPro MFP M281fdw and I can't scan with it
[06:56] <diogenes_> what about printing?
[06:56] <eikin> Printing is ok
[06:56] <diogenes_> ok run  in terminal: sudo apt install sane xsane
[06:59] <eikin> it's installing some packages.
[06:59] <eikin> by the way the install / remove is also not working when I click on it
[07:00] <diogenes_> let it install
[07:00] <eikin> ok. terminal has finished.
[07:00] <diogenes_> ok in the same terminal run: sudo apt install hannah-foo2zjs
[07:01] <eikin> ok. done
[07:01] <diogenes_> btw how is it connected? via USB, LAN, WiFi?
[07:02] <eikin> usb
[07:02] <diogenes_> ok run: sudo apt install libusb-0.1
[07:02] <eikin> is it possible to change that later if Ineed
[07:03] <eikin> ok. done
[07:03] <diogenes_> ok try to remove the usb cable and plug it back
[07:04] <eikin> done
[07:04] <diogenes_> try scanning
[07:05] <eikin> it says " no scanner found"
[07:05] <diogenes_> how do you try scanning?
[07:06] <eikin> wnet to the scanner button in mate and click on it. Program opens but after a short time it says "No scanner found"
[07:06] <diogenes_> ok close that program, go back to terminal and run: gksu xsane
[07:07] <diogenes_> enter your passwors, click on "continue at your own risk"
[07:08] <eikin> ok.
[07:08] <diogenes_> what is the result?
[07:08] <eikin> nothing found
[07:08] <diogenes_> ok run in terminal: sane-find-scanner
[07:08] <diogenes_> you gonna see a lot of text in terminal, you copy all that text
[07:09] <diogenes_> after that you go here: https://paste.ubuntu.com/
[07:09] <diogenes_> there you paste all the text and share the link here
[07:14] <diogenes_> eikin, I have little time, 9.15s only
[07:14] <eikin> https://thepasteb.in/p/KOh8W9z87GAuJ
[07:15] <eikin> how can I contact you again
[07:15] <diogenes_> wait
[07:15] <diogenes_> run in terminal: sudo /usr/bin/scanimage -L
[07:16] <diogenes_> paste here only the first like that you get
[07:16] <diogenes_> not the entire text
[07:16] <diogenes_> first line*
[07:17] <eikin> No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something different,
[07:17] <diogenes_> ok evrything's clear, write here the name and model of your scanner
[07:19] <eikin> It's a multi device HP Color Laserjet Pro MFP M281fdw
[07:19] <diogenes_> ok
[07:20] <eikin> any advice that install/remove button not working
[07:20] <diogenes_> what install/remove button?
[07:20] <eikin> for softwre in mate
[07:21] <eikin> when I click on it nothing happens
[07:22] <diogenes_> if you want to install software, run in terminal: sudo apt install synaptic
[07:26] <eikin> ok. Thanks. Install working again.
[07:27] <diogenes_> ok the last thing you have to try is run: sudo apt install hplip hplip-gui
[07:28] <diogenes_> after it finishes installation, go to menu and search for hplip program, try to see if you can scan with the help of that program
[07:29] <diogenes_> I have to go now, if you fail, then you may come back here in an hour and maybe we could do something, though not sure
[07:29] <eikin> thanks a alot
[07:29] <diogenes_> yw

[14:42] <impressora> hi
[14:42] <impressora> someone can help me ?
[14:43] <impressora> to share my printer to windows, i have to install samba ?
[14:50] <DarkPsydeLord> well samba is installed by default on ubuntu mate
[15:16] <Lengsdorfer> the samba server is not installed to mate by default. (ubuntu) i don't think that this is different at mint.
[15:57] <alelinux> hola
[15:58] <DarkPsydeLord> hola
[20:55] <JerryT> Mate uses Cinnamon by default correct?
[20:56] <Sum1lson18> JerryT: Mate and Cinnamon are two different desktop environments
[20:56] <JerryT> Ok, so Mate uses Gnome2 then?
[20:57] <Lengsdorfer> Mate is a fork of gnome
[20:58] <Sum1lson18> JerryT: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MATE_(software)
[20:58] <Lengsdorfer> more precise: a fork of gnome2
[20:58] <JerryT> Hrmm
[20:58] <JerryT> Did they drop lockdown_panel_config?
[21:34] <alkisg> JerryT:  $ gsettings list-recursively  | grep lock | grep panel
[21:34] <alkisg> org.mate.panel locked-down false
[21:39] <JerryT> Thank you
[21:58] <mate|51174> Hi, I'm wondering what the intended behavior of e.g. "Move window to north-west (top-left) corner" is? In regular ubuntu it resizes as well as moves, on my mate desktop it only moves the window?
[21:59] <JerryT> alkisg, what if it has no effect?
[22:03] <alkisg> JerryT: it has effect for me
[22:03] <alkisg> Did you set it to true?
[22:03] <alkisg> gsettings set org.mate.panel locked-down true
[22:06] <JerryT> alkisg, yes.  Restarted mate-panel too
[22:07] <alkisg> JerryT: I'm using the redmond mate-panel layout, and when i alt+right click on some item, I can remove it
[22:07] <alkisg> If I set it to true, I can't remove it
[22:07] <alkisg> I cannot drag the panel around either
[22:07] <alkisg> No restarting is needed
[22:08] <alkisg> Of course, you need to modify the setting of the current user, not e.g. of the root user by running the command with sudo...
[22:08] <JerryT> Oh
[22:08] <JerryT> How do you do it globally?
[22:08] <alkisg> Global gsettings are documented in the gnome wiki
[22:08] <alkisg> They go to /etc
[22:09] <JerryT> Ok, I'll check it out
[22:09] <JerryT> Thanks.
[22:09] <alkisg> Google for "mandatory gsettings"
[22:46] <anonymous180> salut
[23:26] <lystra> hi
[23:29] <lystra> i have a question about ubuntu mate
[23:29] <lystra> what are some (significant) differences between Ubuntu MATE 17.10 and 16.04 LTS?
[23:30] <Mikelevel> lts has support 5 years
[23:33] <lystra> ok cool thanks :), I'm about to install 17.10, just want to know if I'll be missing out on something that 16.04 doesn't offer
[23:39] <lystra13> thanks again, Mike
