[01:00] <ubuntu> ola
[01:01] <ubuntu> boa noite
[01:01] <Guest82971> alguem fala portugues ou espanhol
[01:01] <kernal> see
[01:03] <hggdh> Guest82971: not really. You may want to try #ubuntu-br or #ubuntu-es
[01:03] <hggdh> Guest82971: tente #ubuntu-br or #ubuntu-es
[04:12] <mate|86879> 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] <kernal> any version of ubuntu is a good start
[04:14] <kernal> 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] <mate|86879> 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] <mate|86879> i couldn't find any online
[04:20] <kernal> I always wondered about this
[04:20] <ne4rd> deepin is a nice system as well
[04:20] <kernal> could you rent a very cheap vps, setup openvpn on that then use that for your internet access?
[04:20] <ne4rd> and it's based in china
[04:21] <ne4rd> I just had deepin on this system until I installed the beta builds of mate 18.04 yesterday
[04:22] <kernal> does china block you from spinning up a digital ocean vps?
[04:27] <xmetal> 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] <xmetal> from the LOOKS of it, the task (install/removal of said-snap) does complete (successfully/"100%"??) thats when the goofup happens
[04:29] <mate|85548> Is advisable to use ubuntu mate as dualboot alongside win 7?
[04:30] <xmetal> (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] <mate|86879> Thanks
[04:31] <mate|86879> Never heard of digital ocean vpns
[04:33] <ne4rd> DigitalOcean is a virtual private server provider, you could setup your own VPN using one of their droplets.
[04:33] <ne4rd> Frankly you could do this with any VPS provider, Amazon, Azure, etc...
[04:34] <kernal> any cheap vps you find hosted in the country of where you want your traffic coming out of
[04:34] <mate|86879> Okay. Yes there are private third party resellers of shadowsocks and open vpns
[04:35] <kernal> @mate|85548, any ubuntu flavour will be a good to use and dual boot
[04:35] <mate|86879> 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] <mate|86879> # at the top level directory of the package:
[04:35] <mate|86879> sudo linux/run.sh
[04:35] <mate|86879> On the first run of Tether, node.js will be compiled. This will take a few minutes.
[04:36] <mate|86879> does it mean that i had to install it through terminal?
[04:37] <kernal> @mate|86879, 'sudo linux/run.sh' is a terminal command
[04:37] <biotim> yes, if you run that you will be giving the script full admin privileges, so hopefully you trust the source
[04:38] <mate|86879> yes it is trusted source
[04:41] <Grorco> have you guys ever had your terminal just randomly start as root?
[04:41] <kernal> no
[04:41] <Grorco> I had this happening today without a prompt..
[04:42] <Grorco> I'm trying to back up my home and do a reinstall here in a minute been having a ton of problems
[04:42] <kernal> logged in as a regular user?
[04:42] <biotim> maybe if you had recently ran something as root, your login would be remembered for a couple minutes
[04:43] <Grorco> 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] <mate|85548> It says compile node.js
[04:44] <Grorco> mate|85548, when you run the terminal command?
[04:45] <mate|85548> yes
[04:45] <kernal> what are you trying to install?
[04:45] <mate|85548> it's called tether
[04:45] <kernal> just tether?
[04:45] <mate|85548> by the way i'm on live usb
[04:46] <mate|85548> yes the name of software is tether
[04:46] <kernal> link?
[05:00] <kernal> no link?
[05:00] <mate|85548> just a sec
[05:01] <mate|85548> http://www.clockworkmod.com/#
[05:01] <mate|85548> scroll down a bit you'll see desktop installer
[05:01] <mate|85548> i mean tether in that desktop installer
[05:02] <kernal> software for android phones?
[05:05] <kernal> 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] <mate|86879> yes
[05:07] <mate|86879> 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] <kernal> you dont need that program
[05:09] <kernal> on your android phone: open setttings / Network & Internet / Hotspot and Tethering
[05:13] <mate|86879> yes but it wont tether vpn connection
[05:14] <kernal> 0.o
[05:15] <kernal> 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] <mate|86879> ok i will give it a try
[05:17] <kernal> well that works for me, don't know about in china tho?
[05:17] <kernal> if they are actively blocking vpn connections?
[05:18] <Grorco> you can run a traceroute to double check
[05:20] <mate|86879> ok
[07:19] <potato> im having issues trying to save a configuration file on my odroid c2
[07:21] <potato> im using terminal and i made all the changes for my display settings on terminal

[19:34] <diogenes_> snappeh, 85 people total
[19:34] <snappeh> online/active is a diffrence but thanks @diogenes_
[19:35] <snappeh> i keep getting issues with "no wireless extensions" no matter what i try on my raspberry pi 3 model B :(
[19:35] <diogenes_> so if half of them is active what do you expect? to have 42 replies?
[19:35] <diogenes_> oh raspberry, sorry I have experience with it
[19:36] <snappeh> 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
