[06:00] <rh10> in button (sorry)
[06:12] <rh10> and if there a way to switch programs in alt+tab using mouse?
[09:15] <mate|87831> czy ten komunikator da sieprzestawic aby byl po polskiemu...
[09:57] <looksao_> bonjour, je voudrais savoir si qq un utilise cyanogen sur tablette et rencontre des difficultes ? merci
[09:57] <alkisg> !fr
[10:12] <looksao> je tape ca ou svp ?
[10:18] <alkisg> looksao, I don't speak French. Only Greek and English.
[11:45] <mate|37430> Is there a keyboard shortcut to switch between windows of the current application?
[11:46] <alkisg> mate|37430: alt+`
[11:47] <mate|37430> weird. that doesn't seem to work.
[11:51] <alkisg> mate|37430: do you see those windows in alt+tab list?
[11:54] <mate|37430> yes
[11:55] <mate|37430> alt+` is completely unresponsive tho
[11:56] <mate|37430> i'm trying on a liveCD if that make any difference
[11:59] <alkisg> mate|37430: which application is this?
[11:59] <alkisg> Also, which ubuntu-mate live cd version?
[12:00] <mate|37430> i've tried it in eclipse and firefox
[12:00] <mate|37430> neither works
[12:00] <alkisg> mate|37430: and which ubuntu mate version is that?
[12:01] <mate|37430> ubuntu mate 17.10 live cd
[12:01] <alkisg> With firefox, I assume that you moved a tab into a separate window, correct?
[12:01] <alkisg> Are you running compiz, or metacity? try ps aux | grep metacity
[12:01] <mate|37430> yes
[12:02] <mate|37430> ubuntu-+ 16883  0.0  0.0  21452  1100 pts/0    S+   12:01   0:00 grep --color=auto metacity
[12:02] <alkisg> and this? ps aux | grep compiz
[12:02] <mate|37430> ubuntu-+ 16894  0.0  0.0  21452   992 pts/0    S+   12:02   0:00 grep --color=auto compiz
[12:02] <alkisg> and this? ps aux | grep marco
[12:03] <mate|37430> ubuntu-+ 16909  0.0  0.0  21452  1100 pts/0    S+   12:03   0:00 grep --color=auto marco
[12:03] <alkisg> mate|37430: this doesn't make a lot of sense, not running any window manager in mate...
[12:04] <alkisg> Do you mind if you upload your whole process list? ps aux | nc termbin.com 9999
[12:06] <alkisg> mate|37430: ubuntu-+  5814  3.0  0.6 584220 53596 ?        Sl   10:40   2:31 compiz --replace ccp
[12:06] <alkisg> So you are running compiz there
[12:06] <alkisg> Maybe you only pasted the first line of the result here and you didn't include that one
[12:06] <alkisg> mate|37430: try this: marco --replace
[12:06] <alkisg> This will enable marco as the window manager. Then try Alt+` again
[12:06] <alkisg> If it works... that means it only works with marco
[12:07] <mate|37430> yep thats it
[12:07] <mate|37430> is marco the software compositor?
[12:08] <alkisg> marco and compiz are window managers. Both support composition.
[12:09] <alkisg> Maybe compiz has another key; maybe not; i'm not using it
[12:12] <mate|37430> Ah. well thanks for your help!
[12:12] <mate|37430> Much appreciated.
[13:07] <bulkior> hello, has anyone had problems in ubuntu 16.04 with the sound? "dummy output" is shown and no hardware detected in lspci.
[13:09] <bulkior> hello, has anyone had problems in ubuntu 16.04 with the sound? "dummy output" is shown and no hardware detected in lspci.
[13:11] <diogenes_> bulkior, aplay -l
[18:15] <ubuntu-mate> so does anyone know how to fix the mouse pad not working on lenovo ideapad 320
[18:16] <nemo> oooh this sounds familiar
[18:18] <ubuntu-mate> it gets frustrating, i keep trying with different versions of linux
[18:19] <ubuntu-mate> i really like matte and i might as well learn
[18:20] <nemo> ubuntu-mate: no, it's just that I bought a lenovo with exact same issue
[18:20] <nemo> ubuntu-mate: (also wifi but I think there's a fix for that)
[18:21] <diogenes_> omg, people, why do you buy lenovo and you just expect linux to run on it?
[18:21] <diogenes_> you have to gather information about the most linux compatible brands
[18:21] <nemo> diogenes_: I'd had pretty darn good luck w/ laptops lately.
[18:21] <nemo> diogenes_: also. ubuntu's laptop compatibility stuff is pretty dubious
[18:22] <ubuntu-mate> well i want to understand coding so its great to learn
[18:22] <diogenes_> lenovo is the least ever choice to run linux
[18:22] <diogenes_> it's just horrible
[18:22] <ubuntu-mate> i dont need you to be messed up
[18:22] <ubuntu-mate> some help website
[18:23] <ubuntu-mate> any help on touchpad issues?
[18:24] <nemo> ubuntu-mate: I'd collected some notes on things that could address it for my particular model
[18:24] <diogenes_> ubuntu-mate, If I were you I'd return and ask for refund.
[18:24] <nemo> ubuntu-mate: but I'd put it off since main thing I wanted to do was upgrade kernel
[18:24] <nemo> I'm waiting for devuan ascii to be released
[18:25] <nemo> diogenes_: https://certification.ubuntu.com/hardware/201606-22367/  checkout this one
[18:25] <nemo> "hibernate is not working on system"
[18:25] <nemo> really should say "if you close your laptop lid or accidentally click suspend in default ubuntu desktop your system will crash and your HD will be corrupted"
[18:25] <nemo> at least, in ubuntu 16.04+  - he finally installed 14.04 which worked perfectly
[18:27] <diogenes_> nemo, shit happens now and then every time, nothing is perfect but none and I stress it out, NONE of the brands has ever had so many issues with linux that lenovo had and still has and will always have because they support windows only and nothing else.
[18:30] <diogenes_> and I'm telling this not because I've read in in the newspaper, I've had tons of different laptops to install linux on and none of them were so much trouble some but lenovo, that's why I don't advice it for people who intend to use linux.
[18:31] <nemo> diogenes_: I was referring to that specifically because the ubuntu certification is no protection
[18:31] <nemo> diogenes_: so "doing research" is not really that sufficient
[18:31] <nemo> anyway. in this particular case it is a synaptic touchpad that I just need to get working, and those have given me trouble under linux since the very first time I bought a laptop with a touchpad
[18:31] <nemo> they all are subtly different
[18:32] <nemo> aaaaand a wireless card that is doing something stupid, but that again has not much to do w/ lenovo
[18:32] <nemo> I know how to fix it, and I just want to see if the fix is already incorporated upstream
[18:32] <nemo> otherwise I'll just patch the kernel module
[18:32] <nemo> 01:00.0 Network controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8821AE 802.11ac PCIe Wireless Network Adapter
[18:32] <nemo> that one...
[18:33] <nemo> realtek is its own nightmare under linux too
[18:33] <nemo> so none of this is much of a shock to me
[18:33] <nemo> diogenes_: oh. I forgot to mention... the UEFI is also running into a bug too, but appears to be fixed upstream and isn't lenovo specific either
[18:33] <nemo> is just that UEFI is also a pile of s***
[18:34] <diogenes_> nemo, I understand, it comes with no warranty of whatsoever and it's good that you know how to fix, patch and so on, but what can a newbie do? if a newbie who wants to try linux will have much more luck with an HP an Asus or Dell than with lenovo
[18:34] <diogenes_> and will definitely have an excellent experience with the system76
[18:35] <nemo> well system76 obv
[18:35] <nemo> just skeptical about the dell
[18:35] <diogenes_> system76 actually even disables the intel management engine
[18:35] <nemo> diogenes_: my point was mostly that my linux laptop exp has been uniformly bad UNLESS that exact model was also shipped in a linux flavour
[18:35] <mate|21003> i am installing mate
[18:36] <nemo> diogenes_: well thankfully disabling it is default most of the time on non-corp installs, although making it completely inactive by selectively wiping it out is relatively rare. maybe they do that?
[18:36] <nemo> diogenes_: which is definitely the route I'd rather go
[18:37] <nemo> diogenes_: I mostly bought this laptop 'cause it was super cheap, and yeh.  If I wanted to be totally safe, I'd probably search for linux laptop, get the exact model and shop around for that (or pay for the preinstall)
[18:37] <nemo> which is probably a good move for noobs
[18:37] <diogenes_> nemo, I'll give you a link where they explain how they do it.
[18:37] <nemo> diogenes_: something I used to do in the past, that Best Buy was remarkably cool with, was bring a ubuntu on a thumb drive to the store 😃
[18:37] <nemo> diogenes_: got some people interesting in linux that way too
[18:39] <diogenes_> nemo, here they explain everything: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MujjuTWpQJk&t=2284s
[18:40] <nemo> youtube ☹
[18:40] <nemo> eh. will check that out later
[18:40] <mate|21003> does someone has experience on vmware
[18:41] <nemo> mate|21003: I use vmware-view on ubuntu...
[18:41] <nemo> with a piv card even ☺
[18:41] <mate|21003> want to install vmware player
[18:42] <mate|21003> i am just installing u mate
[18:42] <nemo> unfamiliar w/ player sorry - only ever used VirtualBox for linux personally
[18:43] <nemo> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware/Player  I see this...
[18:43] <nemo> mate|21003: IMO virtualbox does better at linux support
[18:43] <mate|21003> virtualbox was not my favorite, since so many problems with usb, sharing and so on
[18:44] <nemo> mate|21003: did you install the virtualbox extensions? the non-free stuff?
[18:44] <nemo> that's normally required for usb
[18:44] <nemo> otherwise no problems w/ that personally - was even able to do, oh, phone updates with it
[18:44] <mate|21003> yes but installation was not succesful
[18:45] <nemo> mate|21003: did you install as root?
[18:45] <nemo> hmmm you weren't using ubuntu software manager were you?
[18:45] <nemo> it does some stupid things
[18:45] <nemo> how long ago was this anyway?
[18:46] <mate|21003> i was using the software center. had the problem yesterday and today
[18:47] <nemo> mate|21003: yeah. software centre is broken on packages that have software license agreements - at least last time I used it
[18:47] <nemo> broke on MS core fonts. I use synaptic for that
[18:47] <nemo> mate|21003: also I'd recommend using the packaging on their downloads page
[18:47] <mate|21003> ok i will try
[18:47] <mate|21003> thands
[18:47] <mate|21003> thanks
[18:48] <nemo> also
[18:48] <mate|21003> thanks and good by
[18:48] <nemo> …
[18:48] <nemo> mate|21003: not gonna let me finish sentence? ☺
[18:48] <nemo> bah
[18:48] <nemo> apparently not
[18:49] <nemo> if it fails for him again, the other possibility is missing dkms
[18:49] <nemo> which might be an unspecified dependency
[18:49] <nemo> but OH WELL
[19:13] <tueftler_> hi there! i have a problem mounting a disk from a synology raid1 to a ubuntu mate
[19:14] <tueftler_> i'm a linux noob, but hoping you can help me mount that on my PC
[19:34] <nemo> man
[19:34] <nemo> what's w/ all these web gateway folks
[20:14] <greg__> no matter what i do Skype will not install on mate keep getting wrong architecture error
[20:29] <senia> hi
[20:31] <senia> my laptop is running super slow
[20:35] <sixwheeledbeast> You probably have the wrong architecture then.
[20:39] <greg__> i have a 64 bit lenovo desktop computer also running skype ,but not on mate on same computer. is there a bug in mate? thank you.
[20:49] <diogenes_> greg__, why you have to download it?
[20:49] <diogenes_> you can use it as a web app
[20:53] <greg__> when i use it as a web app through outlook it always say it's busy.
[20:53] <diogenes_> greg__, who says about outlook? all you need is chrome or chromium and it will work just great.
[20:57] <mate|73313> Hi All. I can't seem to get the Win+A, Win+S or Win+Shift+S shortcuts working
[20:57] <Akuli> mate|73313, what are those keys supposed to do?
[20:58] <greg__> ok mate thank you for you help ,but iam still perplexed why it runs on ubuntu 16.04 but not mate.
[20:59] <mate|73313> I've enable compiz, and as per the keyboard shortcuts in the welcome guide, the Win+A shows a zoom out of all workspaces
[20:59] <diogenes_> greg__, you could try snap install skype
[20:59] <Akuli> mate|73313, are you sure that compiz is actually running? open a terminal and run   compiz --replace
[20:59] <mate|73313> Win + S shows all windows on current workspace, like expose on mac
[21:01] <mate|73313> Yes, I can do the other shortcuts such as ctrl alt d to show desktop
[21:01] <greg__> ok thank you.
[21:15] <mate|56339> hello I recently installed ubunto on my Acer s7 392. However I am a bit of a noob with linux. Before my ssd had 2 disks with raid0 configuration.
[21:15] <mate|56339> As of now I have both disks separate where one disk has linux installed and the other is empty. Will I face problems in the future???
[21:18] <mate|56339> hello I recently installed ubunto on my Acer s7 392. However I am a bit of a noob with linux. Before my ssd had 2 disks with raid0 configuration.
[21:18] <mate|56339> As of now I have both disks separate where one disk has linux installed and the other is empty. Will I face problems in the future???
[21:18] <mate|56339> Anyone?
[21:19] <Akuli> what kind of problems do you expect?
[21:19] <sambo> probably not
[21:20] <mate|56339> I am expecting a boot problem. Ubuntu is booting up wierd where I have a purple screen then a white flash and eventually ubuntu boots up normally.
[21:21] <Akuli> it won't magically stop working by itself
[21:22] <mate|56339> I feel as if Somehow ubuntu wasn't installed correctly because previously I tried installing kali distro before and did all sorts of shenanigans
[21:22] <Akuli> do you want us to check how your hard drive stuff looks? run on terminal:  lsblk | nc termbin.com 9999
[21:23] <Akuli> it gives you a link, copy/paste it here
[21:23] <mate|56339> yes please
[21:24] <sambo> what is a crimson tide
[21:25] <sambo> google search crimson tide4
[21:26] <Akuli> looks ok to me
[21:26] <mate|56339> http://termbin.com/xt70
[21:27] <Akuli> if you run out of space you can always move stuff, that shouldn't be a problem
[21:27] <Akuli> i wouldn't be too worried about starting up weird as long as it's consistent
[21:28] <mate|56339> I also want to move my /home directory to the other 128 GB disk. Is that posibble??
[21:29] <Akuli> yes, i don't remember how but you can do that without reinstalling
[21:29] <Akuli> i believe you're supposed to edit /etc/fstab and reboot
[21:29] <Akuli> but ask for someone else to give better advice :) i need to go now
[21:29] <mate|56339> It's 1 SSD but shows 2 separate disks
[21:30] <mate|56339> alright thank you
[21:30] <mate|56339> take care
