[03:05] <quazimodo> does xubuntu 16.04 have a known issue with rendering 'light' and 'ultralight' fonts?
[03:05] <quazimodo> i can't get it to render anything but regular and bold
[03:41] <Valeyard> how so?
[05:36] <hans__> does xubuntu live come with openssh server?
[05:37] <krytarik> hans__: No cross-posting please.
[05:37] <hans__> krytarik, i didn't
[05:38] <krytarik> Sure you did.
[05:38] <krytarik> Well, the answer is the same, anyway.
[05:38] <hans__> i did not, xubuntu live != ubuntu live
[05:38] <krytarik> Oh, you asked there too.
[05:38] <hans__> also, lubuntu live != xubuntu live

[12:26] <knome> sure, np
[19:56] <Guest90988> Hello ! My PC is not starting Xubuntu 16.04. It's reboot automatically. Whats the solution for this ?
[20:56] <EmilyM> hello?
[20:56] <knome> hello.
[20:57] <EmilyM> I'm having a heck of a time instlling wine on a computer supporting Xbuntu and am wondering if I could get a small advice?
[20:59] <flocculant> EmilyM: you need to tell us what the problem you've got actually is :)
[21:00] <EmilyM> legit, but i didn't want to spew about it if this was the wrong place.
[21:00] <flocculant> it is the right place - hope we can help
[21:02] <EmilyM> I'm getting a dependancy error when I try 'sudo apt-get install --install-recommends winehq-stable'
[21:02] <EmilyM> the dependancy error says i need 'wine-stable (=2.0.4`xenial)
[21:03] <EmilyM> but I know little of xbuntu/ubuntu and I'm lost in a dependancy maze
[21:04] <flocculant> winehq-stable isn't in the repo's - what have you read to lead you to that package?
[21:05] <EmilyM> the winehq wiki download page
[21:06] <EmilyM>  This:  https://wiki.winehq.org/Ubuntu
[21:06] <EmilyM> followed all the previous instructions, and troubleshot a few dependencies there, but after updating I'm stuf
[21:06] <EmilyM> stuck
[21:09] <flocculant> any reason why you didn't just install the version available from the system?
[21:09] <EmilyM> ignorance probably
[21:09] <flocculant> also what happens if you don't --install-recommends ?
[21:10] <EmilyM> hmmm dunno, I'll see
[21:10] <EmilyM> same dependency issue
[21:10] <flocculant> ok
[21:12] <EmilyM> looks like software only has the dev version and winetricks, which I am led to believe is outdated
[21:12] <flocculant> don't really know what to suggest other than undoing what you did - and then installing the repo version of wine
[21:12] <flocculant> https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=wine&suite=default&section=all&arch=any&searchon=names
[21:12] <flocculant> that's some of the wine stuff available
[21:14] <flocculant> you might find someone in #ubuntu who uses wine - a more speedy channel
[21:15] <flocculant> also you could hopefully purge this ppa you added - which will set your system back to default from it
[21:16] <flocculant> just checking it out in a vm
[21:17] <EmilyM> would the command for that be 'sudo apt-get ppa-purge <repository title>'?
[21:17] <flocculant> likely
[21:17] <flocculant> rather yes should be - never used it with something that wasn't a ppa
[21:19] <dax> not quite, it's more like sudo ppa-purge ppa:repository-name/subdirectory
[21:19] <dax> (without apt-get)
[21:20] <flocculant> dax EmilyM - sorry only have reading - in the vm
[21:20] <flocculant> which is causing issues with no release file for me ...
[21:21] <EmilyM> hmm I suppose the repository name would be the website I got it from?
[21:21] <flocculant> EmilyM: check what the ppa is called - look in /etc/apt/sources.list/d/ for it
[21:22] <flocculant> nvm - adds it direct to sources.list
[21:25] <flocculant> EmilyM: have you actually managed to install anything from there yet?
[21:26] <EmilyM> lol. I got the repository key and the repository I think?
[21:26] <flocculant> ok
[21:26] <flocculant> we can undo - and then you can get it from the repo
[21:26] <EmilyM> also, sudo ppa-purge command not found
[21:26] <flocculant> yea - have to install that, but don't worry
[21:26] <flocculant> Alt+F2
[21:27] <flocculant> pkexec mousepad /etc/apt/sources.list
[21:27] <flocculant> a text file will open
[21:27] <flocculant> after you give it password
[21:28] <flocculant> find the line that has winehq in it - add # to the BEGINNING of the line
[21:28] <flocculant> save and close
[21:29] <EmilyM> hmmm several lines have wine in them, all start with # deb-src
[21:29] <flocculant> ignore lines that start with #
[21:29] <flocculant> none without #?
[21:30] <flocculant> # ?
[21:30] <EmilyM> one
[21:30] <flocculant> put # at the beginning
[21:30] <EmilyM> okay, #, saved and closed
[21:31] <flocculant> open a terminal
[21:31] <flocculant> sudo apt update
[21:31] <flocculant> does that give any error?
[21:32] <EmilyM> no, but two packadges can be upgraded
[21:32] <EmilyM> lol
[21:32] <flocculant> do that first just in case (sudo apt upgrade)
[21:32] <flocculant> then sudo apt install wine-stable
[21:33] <EmilyM> unable to locate packadge wine-stable
[21:34] <flocculant> EmilyM: what version of Xubuntu are you using?
[21:35] <EmilyM> 16.04
[21:35] <flocculant> EmilyM: try wine instead of wine-stable
[21:36] <EmilyM> depends on wine 1.6
[21:36] <flocculant> try install wine1.6
[21:37] <EmilyM> I think thats the older version, Its on wine 2.0.4 now I think?
[21:38] <flocculant> yes - but as you've found out - that causes issues with 16.04 ...
[21:38] <flocculant> is there something in wine 2.04 that you KNOW you need?
[21:39] <flocculant> https://askubuntu.com/questions/151283/why-dont-the-ubuntu-repositories-have-the-latest-versions-of-software
[21:39] <EmilyM> depends: wine1.6-amd64 (= 1:1.6.2-0ubuntu14.2) but it is not going to be installed
[21:39] <EmilyM> I'm pretty sure the older version would be totally fine
[21:39] <flocculant> EmilyM: ok - not sure what to suggest to be honest - not looked at wine myself for many years
[21:40] <flocculant> if you can wait I can boot 16.04 in a vm
[21:41] <EmilyM> I really appreciate you taking the time to troubleshoot a bit with me
[21:41] <flocculant> no problem :)
[21:41] <flocculant> though if anyone watching uses wine - feel free to jump in :)
[21:50] <flocculant> EmilyM: so I booted a 16.04 vm, following the instructions at the site you went to - worked for me (or would if I let it - vm has hundreds of updates to apply)
[21:50] <flocculant> I'm getting the same dependency issue as you did from the repos
[21:51] <EmilyM> so its def a version issue
[21:51] <flocculant> maybe try asking in #ubuntu this issue isn't an Xubuntu one as it stands, so people there should be able to help you more
[21:51] <EmilyM> ok. I'll try there and #WineHQ I think
[21:51] <flocculant> okey doke
[21:51] <EmilyM> thank you muchly
[21:52] <flocculant> sorry I coudn't help
[21:52] <EmilyM> you did plenty ^_^
[21:52] <flocculant> :)
[22:47] <EmilyM> flocculant, finally got it installed, now to get it working! thank you so much
[22:49] <zleap> what is flocculant ?
[22:49] <EmilyM> someone's nick
[22:49] <zleap> ok
[22:49] <zleap> sorry
[22:49] <EmilyM> they were helping me earlier
[22:50] <zleap> ah what you getting working then
[22:51] <EmilyM> wine on xbuntu 16.04
[22:51] <zleap> ah
[22:51] <zleap> not tried wine in ages
[22:51] <EmilyM> which has been a pain for the last three hours or so
[22:52] <zleap> i have been trying to get warzone2100 to work, it seems broken on mint
[22:54] <EmilyM> I know nothing bout ubuntu or xbuntu, so that statement only makes vague sense to me
[22:57] <zleap> it is a game
[22:57] <zleap> only it crashes when run
[22:57] <EmilyM> those were the two things I could extrapolate. lol
[22:58] <EmilyM> is it a game you play via wine/other emulators?
[23:00] <zleap> native to linux
[23:01] <EmilyM> mm
[23:01] <zleap> ok it seg faults
[23:02] <zleap> i need to figure out how to create a bug report for it
[23:04] <zleap> hmm this not look good, launchpad said last modified 2010-10-02
[23:06] <zleap> it looks abandoned :(
[23:09] <EmilyM> :<
