[00:49] <julen> hola
[00:49] <julen> me he descargado hoy ubuntu mate
[00:49] <julen> que les parece este sistema operativo?
[01:09] <ubuntu-mate> I am trying to reinstall grub. How do i do that
[01:40] <mate|70990> I had Linux Mint Mate on my computer, but there was one or two things I did not like about it. I have Ubuntu Mate installed now.
[04:06] <slu2> Hey everyone. I was trying to run an old disc game called King's Quest. Any ideas on how I can install the game on Ubuntu?
[04:06] <Nathan-0> is it an old windows game slu2?
[04:06] <slu2> yes
[04:07] <slu2> lol Windows 3.1 to be exact...
[04:08] <Nathan-0> have you tried WINE ?
[04:09] <slu2> What is WINE, Nathan? It seems I've been out of the CPU loop for sometime.
[04:09] <Nathan-0> https://www.winehq.org/
[04:10] <slu2> Interesting...I will check this out for now. Thanks Nathan.
[04:10] <Nathan-0> you can run some windows programs on linux with WINE
[04:12] <Nathan-0> scummVM might be of interest to you as well if you want to play older games like that
[04:13] <Nathan-0> Kings Quest looks to be supported on scummVM
[04:13] <Nathan-0> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ScummVM#Supported_games
[04:18] <slu2> checking out scumm right now too.
[04:30] <slu2> Alright gonna go see if these emulators work. Thanks again Nathan.
[04:36] <Nathan-0> nice!

[09:55] <diogenes_> guest-s3nvpl, you need any help? :)
[20:28] <mandje__> hi all.  help!  i installed plank amongst other stuff in a crazy mood to osx umate. how to get red of this. like reverse...   this plank thing is driving me nuts. cpu goes up to 90% just looking at this idiot task-switcher.
[20:30] <diogenes_> mandje__, uninstall?
[20:31] <mandje__> uninstall yes. but i dont know what it was replacing.  what is the standard gui set in umate?
[20:38] <mandje__> if i´d had my data on a separate partition i would reinstall. but moving the data around is cumbersome.  looking at the screenshots on umate site.
[20:38] <alkisg> mandje__: you can reinstall without formatting your partition, e.g. keeping only /home
[20:39] <alkisg> You can see the packages you installed in /var/log/apt/history.log
[20:41] <mandje__> alkisg, really?  so you have 1 partition with system and /home on it, and while reinstalling leave /home alone?
[20:41] <alkisg> Yup
[20:42] <alkisg> If in doubt, you can do something like "mkdir /my-old-installation; mv * /my-old-installation" from the live cd before installing, so that you keep everything in a subdir
[20:43] <alkisg> In that case, you'd find the old home in /my-old-installation/home
[20:43] <mandje__> cool. history.log also nice te be using. tnx ever so much.
[20:45] <mandje__> mv /home /my-old-home/ would do as well and use up less space right?
[21:00] <alkisg> mandje__: I meant, in case you want to keep all the old installation to see if you saved things elsewhere or if you  have settings that you want to see etc
[21:00] <alkisg> Otherwise, there's no need to move home, leave it as it is, it will be reused
[21:00] <alkisg> Just be careful not to format at the partitioning step, but to reuse as ext4
[21:00] <mandje__> righto alkisg
[21:05] <mandje__> looking at the history logs 1, 2, 3 and 4..  it´s a jungle of initial installs, updates and in between somewhere user initiated software installs.
[21:08] <mandje__> i think i´ll make some screenshots of open menu´s and whatnot visible stuff in the interface to have a general reminder of what´s installed by mandje__ himself.
[21:12] <diogenes_> Hey guys, huge security flaw in intel chips, everyone is adviced to patch: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/27150
[22:25] <ThatWasLeftHande> Hello, is there a way I can get help for a problem I'm having?
[22:26] <Nathan> hey ThatWasLeftHande
[22:26] <Astro7467> !ask
[22:49] <jimo_mate> hello
[22:50] <Nathan> hello
[22:50] <jimo_mate> just two real quick (probably ) questions
[22:51] <jimo_mate> one.After many years using Mint switched back to Ubuntu Mate (lure me back again) Main reason was a damn wifi usb adapter TP LINKTL-WN722N
[22:52] <jimo_mate> Couldnt make it to work in Mint Mate/Xfce no matter what... its kernel is just so picky Neither compilation of the driver nor pre fixed drives made any difference
[22:53] <jimo_mate> So i noticed that Ubuntu using Gnome again through Mate and thought to give it a shot, And....voila!!!!! Wifi worked out of the box
[22:54] <jimo_mate> Well that was no question of course so im going to the real thing. I have fallen in love with compiz only for that burn effect and if i can t install it through compiz i immediately change dDistro
[22:55] <jimo_mate> i tried and installed it here also but it crashes a lot. Found out by luck that with Nvidia Binary closed drivers crashes immediately
[22:56] <jimo_mate> i think 340 ...... something The previous version 204 plays ok but every now and then after restart mostly keeps giving me artifacts in taskbar
[22:57] <jimo_mate> Plays even better with NOuveau xorg drivers but i dont know the differences from the Nvidia ONE..... Does Nuveau uses the gpu acceleration for effects or depends on cpu also?
[22:57] <jimo_mate> ok that was no quick at all
[23:00] <jimo_mate> oh and the second question is i can seem to install WPS Office...anyone knows a good how to...
[23:01] <Nathan> can't* ?
[23:03] <Nathan> wow, never heard of WPS before. I've always used Libre Office
[23:04] <jimo_mate> yes sorry cant
[23:04] <jimo_mate> Libre sometimes doesnt go along with office formulas
[23:05] <jimo_mate> Mostly i want to know about the difference between gpu drivers
[23:06] <Nathan> hopefully there is someone on here with more knowledge about that for you?
[23:06] <jimo_mate> DO i loose something if i stick with X.Org X Server Nouveau instead the Nvidia one?
[23:07] <jimo_mate> yes thank you for the efford though
[23:07] <jimo_mate> effort
[23:10] <Nathan> so the deb for WPS doesn't work for you?
[23:11] <jimo_mate> wps-office_10.1.0.5707~a21_amd64.deb
[23:13] <jimo_mate> upon installation Error:Dependency is not satisiable Libpng12-0
[23:18] <Nathan> what happens if you install libpng12?
