[01:00] ola [01:01] boa noite === ubuntu is now known as Guest82971 [01:01] alguem fala portugues ou espanhol [01:01] see [01:03] Guest82971: not really. You may want to try #ubuntu-br or #ubuntu-es [01:03] Guest82971: tente #ubuntu-br or #ubuntu-es [04:12] Hello I am new to ubuntu mate. For the fact I'm new to linux itself no knowledge about coding. Is it advisable to use ubuntu mate as dualboot alongside win 7? [04:13] any version of ubuntu is a good start [04:14] I just started testing out elementary OS. And thought that would be a great distro for ppl that have never used linux before [04:19] okay I live in china. China's firewall won't allow access to sites like google any free vpn available for ubuntu mate? [04:19] i couldn't find any online [04:20] I always wondered about this [04:20] deepin is a nice system as well [04:20] could you rent a very cheap vps, setup openvpn on that then use that for your internet access? [04:20] and it's based in china [04:21] I just had deepin on this system until I installed the beta builds of mate 18.04 yesterday [04:22] does china block you from spinning up a digital ocean vps? [04:27] hmm @ messing with snaps more than i have before ... on 17.10 atm and it seems everytme i install or remove a snap, it (?? for the lack of a better term) auto-logs me out .. and even after i login .. beforee the welcome screen even appears it logs me out again ... to get back into ubuntu mate i have to reboot [04:28] from the LOOKS of it, the task (install/removal of said-snap) does complete (successfully/"100%"??) thats when the goofup happens [04:29] Is advisable to use ubuntu mate as dualboot alongside win 7? [04:30] (think this was answered a minute ago) but for those new to Linux ... Ubuntu Mate along side an OS your familiar with is a good way to "get your feet wet" with Linux [04:30] Thanks [04:31] Never heard of digital ocean vpns [04:33] DigitalOcean is a virtual private server provider, you could setup your own VPN using one of their droplets. [04:33] Frankly you could do this with any VPS provider, Amazon, Azure, etc... [04:34] any cheap vps you find hosted in the country of where you want your traffic coming out of [04:34] Okay. Yes there are private third party resellers of shadowsocks and open vpns [04:35] @mate|85548, any ubuntu flavour will be a good to use and dual boot [04:35] I just downloaded a software by name tether I had to install it in ubuntu mate. But I cannot install it. It says thi in readme Running Tether on Linux: [04:35] # at the top level directory of the package: [04:35] sudo linux/run.sh [04:35] On the first run of Tether, node.js will be compiled. This will take a few minutes. [04:36] does it mean that i had to install it through terminal? [04:37] @mate|86879, 'sudo linux/run.sh' is a terminal command [04:37] yes, if you run that you will be giving the script full admin privileges, so hopefully you trust the source [04:38] yes it is trusted source [04:41] have you guys ever had your terminal just randomly start as root? [04:41] no [04:41] I had this happening today without a prompt.. [04:42] I'm trying to back up my home and do a reinstall here in a minute been having a ton of problems [04:42] logged in as a regular user? [04:42] maybe if you had recently ran something as root, your login would be remembered for a couple minutes [04:43] biotim, I thought that might've been it, still seemed weird though. Not sure the last time I've even seen root, I always sudo never su [04:43] It says compile node.js [04:44] mate|85548, when you run the terminal command? [04:45] yes [04:45] what are you trying to install? [04:45] it's called tether [04:45] just tether? [04:45] by the way i'm on live usb [04:46] yes the name of software is tether [04:46] link? [05:00] no link? [05:00] just a sec [05:01] http://www.clockworkmod.com/# [05:01] scroll down a bit you'll see desktop installer [05:01] i mean tether in that desktop installer [05:02] software for android phones? [05:05] so you just want to tether to your phones internet access? You can connect to your phone with your wi-fi without the need for such an app [05:06] yes [05:07] nope the thing is i have vpn on my android phone with tether i can tether my wifi and vpn connection to pc [05:08] you dont need that program [05:09] on your android phone: open setttings / Network & Internet / Hotspot and Tethering [05:13] yes but it wont tether vpn connection [05:14] 0.o [05:15] it'll just use your phones internet access, connect to the vpn on your phone, connect your computer to your phone via wi-fi.. done [05:16] ok i will give it a try [05:17] well that works for me, don't know about in china tho? [05:17] if they are actively blocking vpn connections? [05:18] you can run a traceroute to double check [05:20] ok [07:19] im having issues trying to save a configuration file on my odroid c2 [07:21] im using terminal and i made all the changes for my display settings on terminal === led2 is now known as led1 === Nic is now known as Guest34936 [15:28] Hey, I'm running Ubuntu MATE on a Pi3 and I have no sound, it seems to be muted and no sound system seen [18:02] hello [18:02] hello [18:04] question i have a fitbit zip with bluetooth dongle and would like to use it with mate 16.04 [18:05] is software available? [18:16] anyone there? [18:17] !patience | josefus2 [18:17] josefus2: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or https://ubuntuforums.org or https://askubuntu.com/ [19:33] anyone active at the moment? :) [19:34] snappeh, 85 people total [19:34] online/active is a diffrence but thanks @diogenes_ [19:35] i keep getting issues with "no wireless extensions" no matter what i try on my raspberry pi 3 model B :( [19:35] so if half of them is active what do you expect? to have 42 replies? [19:35] oh raspberry, sorry I have experience with it [19:36] normally its easier to start a conversation that way because its easier to get in contact with someone that bother to have a conversation ;P === Nathan_ is now known as kernal [22:42] how do iinstall android emulator for rpi3?
