D: [01:45] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BionicBeaver/ReleaseNotes [16:26] Lol, according to the release schedule today is "March 22th" [16:28] Menzador: who invented all this th/nd/rd/[...etc...] unnecessary-complexity anyway??!?!? [16:28] I blame the Anglos, Saxons, and Jutes === mesa_ is now known as mesa [17:41] Hello: I'm running Bionic Beaver, 3-21-2018 build date, on an iMac 5k 27" - cpu intel Core i7-6700K@4.00GHz x8, graphics Radeon r9 m395x. Currently dual booting High Sierra and Ubuntu Bionic Beaver. I used reFINd boot manager to get through the installation. The problem I am having now is Ubuntu is re-writing the boot record everytime I run it: (I have to reinstall reFINd while booted to the maacosx . How can I have ubuntu (grub I assume) not to rewrite [17:41] the boot record. I want to use reFINd. Thanks. [17:43] I'm happy to report that, other than the behaviour m,entioned above, It is running very nicely on the mac hardware. [17:48] didnt test on mac myself mesa [17:48] !mac | mesa can this help anyhow>? [17:48] !mac [17:48] For help on installing and using Ubuntu on a Mac, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MactelSupportTeam/CommunityHelpPages [17:48] lotuspsychje: Thanks I will read now. [18:05] mesa, Were you using Ubuntu prior to Bionic Beaver? [18:05] no [18:05] slackware [18:06] mac osx high sierra [18:06] I am using a similar set up to what you describe, except 16.04 and don't have that issue, that's why I was wondering. [18:06] 16.04 didn't work for me due to graphics drivers. I needed the kernel support in the Beaver [18:07] whoops, now I see it's an iMac... I always think MBP [18:14] JimBuntu: What bootloader are you using to dual boot with? [18:15] I am using reFINd [18:15] Grub keeps rewriting my boot record nullifying reFINd. [18:15] The only times I have to reload reFINd is when updating, sometimes macOS removes it on me... but it only takes a few seconds to re-install and it keeps my old settings/etc [18:16] Everytime I boot to ubuntu then grub takes over. Have to reinstall reFINd. [18:16] I'm researching now on how to solve the issue. [18:16] Lunch time, later. [18:16] That is odd to me. Have fun [18:47] I have upgraded to 18.04 from 17.10 at the end of file installation it failed, i think everything installed apart from papirus icon theme, is it safe to restart, rerunning the update manager shows only papirus but again failing to install it [18:49] plus unsused header files to be removed [18:49] Asad2005: "papirus-icon-theme"? [18:49] yes [18:49] Asad2005: can you pastebin what happens in a terminal when you try to run `sudo apt-get -f install` ? [18:50] i will try [18:51] Asad2005: just curious why it's failing, as the package only exists in bionic [18:57] https://pastebin.com/XtRkQnLK [18:57] Asad2005: that's from '-f install' ? [18:57] yes [18:58] Asad2005: it seems like papirus-icon-theme is installed fine then [18:58] Asad2005: `apt-cache policy papirus-icon-theme` [18:59] https://pastebin.com/Y93FdaAd [19:00] the update-manager ended just before the clean up process [19:00] Can i safely restart [19:02] If thats the only package can i try uninstalling it first [19:03] Asad2005: ah, you were running some unsupported version of it? [19:03] probably yes [19:03] Asad2005: i would remove that first (sudo apt remove papirus-icon-theme) then install it by ahdn (sudo apt-get install papirus-icon-theme) [19:03] then i'd reboot [19:04] ok thanks === mesa_ is now known as mesa [22:44] More success running Bionic Beaver (build date 3-21) on my iMac 5k 27". All my Apple Periph's are working: Magic Mouse 2, Magic Trackpad 2 & Magic Keyboard. Some gestures are not... yet. I wonder how to further configure ? [22:45] All Above are bluetooth devices. =) sweet. [22:49] I think I will document this entire setup, not just the bluetoooth, from the beginning to help others. Where would be a good place to post my "Installing and Dual Booting Ubuntu Bionic Beaver and High Sierra Mac OSX on your iMac" ? [22:50] I'll put it on my personal blog for now. [22:51] I'm searching for guidance/docs on fine tuning the keyboard/Trackpad/Mouse right now. Trying to get special keys on the keyboard (multimedia, etc) and trackpad and mouse gestures fine tuned. [23:57] interesting. After today's updates I lost the ability to set the primary touchpad button. Now the primary is the left button no matter what.
