[02:25] <geriatric_bedtim> Would someone help me reconfigure the resolution of an external monitor? I've been fiddling with xrandr for an hour and can't get anything to work :'(

[07:15] <RudyValencia_> Hi, I'm trying to install Ubuntu 16.04 LTS on a Ryzen 7 1700 w/ GeForce GTX 1050, but it doesn't boot in BIOS mode (freezes on a text screen) or UEFI (desktop looks like a bunch of lines), why is that happening and how can I install it?

[20:10] <xubuntu256> Hey all.  I am trying to dowload xubuntu from a usb (thumb) drive.
[20:11] <well_laid_lawn> xubuntu256:  download or install ?
[20:19] <xubuntu256>  .... Install...  I wish to divide
[20:19] <well_laid_lawn> !install
[20:19] <ubottu> Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall - Don't want to use a CD? See http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate
[20:19] <well_laid_lawn> partioning the hard drive can be easy enough
[20:20] <well_laid_lawn> partitioning the hard drive can be easy enough
[20:21] <xubuntu256> I wanted to install using usb... Need to immage (ain't got that) then bootable xubuntu installed on USB.
[20:22] <well_laid_lawn> !persistant
[20:22] <ubottu> For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent
[20:22] <well_laid_lawn> the second link
[20:22] <xubuntu256> Needless to say, change the boot sequence...  Once done that divide disk and install.
[20:40] <asarch> Using the new configuration scheme (DBus or GConf), how could I disable a monitor permanently (I mean, reboot after reboot)?
[20:40] <asarch> I mean, system-wide?
[20:47] <well_laid_lawn> see if this helps - http://tech.draiser.net/2015/07/14/ignoring-hotplug-monitor-events-on-arch-linux/
[20:57] <asarch> Thank you well_laid_lawn
[20:57] <asarch> Thank you very much :-)
[20:57] <well_laid_lawn> cheers
[20:57] <asarch> How could you get a xorg.conf file?
[20:57] <asarch> Xorg nowadays cannot do the classic "Xorg -configure"
[20:59] <well_laid_lawn> I just find one on the net... you can make one and add it in /etc/X11/xorg,conf.d/  and call it 60-monitor.conf
[21:00] <well_laid_lawn> all it needs is a section similar to what that link showed
[21:01] <asarch> Thank you very much
[21:02] <asarch> Thank you very much once again :-=
[21:02] <asarch> :-)
[21:02] <well_laid_lawn> cheers
[21:03] <asarch> BRB!
[21:32] <xubuntu500> I am still trying to do a bootable USB drive for Xubuntu.
