| newtolinux22 | hello | 17:48 |
| diogenes_ | hello | 17:49 |
| newtolinux22 | i am curious about which distro would be better to run on my specs | 17:50 |
| diogenes_ | mate is pretty lightweight so it will do good with both high and low specs | 17:50 |
| newtolinux22 | I have an Intel Celeron N3060 and 4GB of ram, its pretty bad but its all i got | 17:51 |
| newtolinux22 | should I use mate or lubuntu for my specs? | 17:54 |
| coruxo | holas | 17:54 |
| newtolinux22 | hi | 17:54 |
| diogenes_ | newtolinux22, what are you using now? | 17:54 |
| newtolinux22 | celeron n3060 and 4gb of ram | 17:54 |
| newtolinux22 | pretty low end | 17:55 |
| diogenes_ | I mean what OS | 17:55 |
| coruxo | Iǘe just intalled mate | 17:55 |
| newtolinux22 | im using mate rn, but i have unity and windows10 on other partitions | 17:55 |
| diogenes_ | so if you're running mate right now, are you satisfied with the way it works | 17:56 |
| newtolinux22 | yea so far | 17:57 |
| diogenes_ | if so, then no need to wonder which you should pick. | 17:57 |
| newtolinux22 | lubuntu is pretty lightweight and good for my low spec hardware too | 17:58 |
| benzmuircroft | how to disable touchpad clicking and scrolling #dangerous (expected behaviour is only to move the mouse) | 21:09 |
| benzmuircroft | I keep accidentally clicking and grabbing files and throwing then | 21:10 |
| Akuli | i have disabled the whole touchpad in the past | 21:10 |
| benzmuircroft | them | 21:10 |
| benzmuircroft | i need to be able to move the cursor | 21:11 |
| benzmuircroft | its dangerous cause i do sftp | 21:11 |
| Akuli | run this command: synclient -l | 21:13 |
| Akuli | it doesn't actually do anything | 21:13 |
| Akuli | just shows you a list of stuff you can configure | 21:13 |
| benzmuircroft | i tried to edit /etc/X11/xorg.cof.d/50-synaptics.conf but had to rescue the machine with an ubuntu usb | 21:13 |
| Akuli | lol synaptics settings are much easier to change | 21:13 |
| Akuli | just use synclient | 21:14 |
| Akuli | seems like "$ synclient TabButton1=0" disables tapping, but i can still use the mouse buttons and scroll | 21:15 |
| benzmuircroft | Couldn't find synaptics properties. No synaptics driver loaded? | 21:15 |
| benzmuircroft | Couldn't find synaptics properties. No synaptics driver loaded? | 21:15 |
| benzmuircroft | could not find synclient properties. No synaptics driver loaded | 21:15 |
| benzmuircroft | lol | 21:15 |
| benzmuircroft | paste is slow | 21:15 |
| Akuli | don't paste here, use e.g. dpaste.com | 21:15 |
| Akuli | x must be running | 21:15 |
| benzmuircroft | ok | 21:15 |
| benzmuircroft | synclient TabButton1=0 seems logical but there is the problem also of the drivers and will it persist after reboot? | 21:17 |
| Akuli | it does not persist after reboot | 21:17 |
| Akuli | how did you run synclient when you got those errors? | 21:19 |
| Akuli | synclient -l gives me this http://termbin.com/tjf1 | 21:19 |
| benzmuircroft | so I tso i think (to make it persist) it should be added to the 50-synaptics.conf copy in etc/X11/xorg.conf.d but I don't know where to put it. I put a similar instruction at the end of the file earlier which cause my system to not boot so I had to go to recue and delete the file | 21:21 |
| Akuli | i would just add the command to .profile or something | 21:22 |
| benzmuircroft | http://termbin.com/tjf1 interesting! | 21:23 |
| benzmuircroft | well it is a new install but it errors saying that no synaptics driver is loaded and everything i have googled has not lead to the drivers. do you have a loaction where they are so i can install whats missing (I did apt-get fix broken something like that cant remember) | 21:25 |
| benzmuircroft | fix dist also | 21:26 |
| benzmuircroft | no change | 21:26 |
| Akuli | i don't know, synclient just works for me | 21:26 |
| Akuli | maybe it works on 14.04 but not 16.whateveryouareusing for some reason? | 21:27 |
| benzmuircroft | hmm? ok lol ubuntu mate right? | 21:27 |
| benzmuircroft | i got the latest stable installed today | 21:27 |
| benzmuircroft | maybe i found a new bug? | 21:27 |
| benzmuircroft | let me check... | 21:28 |
| benzmuircroft | MATE Desktop Environment 1.12.1 | 21:28 |
| Akuli | that's a mate version, not an ubuntu version | 21:29 |
| Akuli | anyway, i need to go | 21:29 |
| benzmuircroft | https://thepasteb.in/p/Q1hBPvom39DI8 | 21:30 |
| benzmuircroft | ok thanks for ur help | 21:30 |
| Akuli | my synclient comes from a package called xserver-xorg-input-synaptics | 21:31 |
| benzmuircroft | problem not fixed (maybe a bug!) #SeeThePasteBin | 21:31 |
| Akuli | weird | 21:31 |
| Akuli | anyway i'll go nw | 21:31 |
| Akuli | now | 21:31 |
| benzmuircroft | safe dude | 21:31 |
