shigutsohi there, just installed Ubuntu MATE 18.04, using nvidia-396 drivers, and realized that my full-hd display is not playing very nice with MATE, the icons and fonts are too big, I changed the HiDPI settings to Regular and it's fine now, but as soon as I restart my PC the config is lost and I have to go back there everytime I login... is there a fix for it? with opensource drivers I wasn't having this issue...00:46
shigutsoif there's a terminal command to change the HiDPI settings I could automate it, but couldn't find anything online00:46

HammitHi guys...Just trying to upgrade my MATE 17.10 machine to 18.04, but not having any luck getting it to acknowledge there is a new distro to upgrade to02:29
HammitI've followed the Upgrading from 16.04 and 17.10 steps on the blog02:30
Markdown1_Hammit it may take couple of Hours, so stay patient.02:30
Hammitoh ok02:30
Hammitta02:30
HammitI checked my apt repos that I'm pointing to and they have the release ready to go, but I'll wait a bit longer then02:31
mate|77990I have installed Umate with windows and now i want to delete windows, how do i do it?03:35
mate|39682hi, sorry for the noob question. but i saw on the blog that 18.04 is out but for some reason following the update instructions doesn't work for me, it doesn't seem to believe that a new release is out03:50
Markdown1_it will take some time.03:51

mate|40289Would it be expected that compiz would run better than macro (compton gpu compositor)?05:18
alkisgmarco isn't compton05:23
alkisgThose are 3 different code bases, it's expected for each one to work better or worse in selected areas05:23
alkisgIf one was better than the others in all cases, the others wouldn't exist :)05:24
mate|40289Pardon me for thinking macro might have something to do with compton but it says it right there https://ibb.co/iQxNGx05:37
mate|40289Compiz works best on my chromebook but I was just curious because they seem the same in theory05:38
alkisgmate|40289: see some theory there: https://ubuntu-mate.community/t/what-is-the-difference-between-the-built-in-compositor-with-marco-and-compton/1331/205:53

joa15martinezwho install ubuntu mate 18.0106:14
alkisgI installed Ubuntu MATE 18.04. Why?06:14
joa15martinezbecause i want to install.06:15
alkisgAnd?06:15
joa15martinezas it is new I wanted to know if it works correctly06:16
alkisgMany users helped in testing; and the release notes mention their experience. Did you read the release notes?06:17
joa15martinezI did not read them Where are they?06:18
alkisgIn the download page, there's a big button that says Release Notes06:21
alkisgIt points to https://ubuntu-mate.org/blog/ubuntu-mate-bionic-final-release/06:21
joa15martinezthanks. I am new in the world of ubuntu06:21

Markdown1_drink a sip of Mate and continue ;)06:24
alkisgHehe, first time ever, after installing from a CD and running apt-get dist-upgrade => 0 packages can be upgraded :D06:35
alkisgWimpress: it's a "supported" use case if I remove snapd (along with ubuntu-mate-welcome, pulsemixer, software-boutique), right? I mean, if I find issues after removing those, they'll still be valid bugs that would need to be addressed... correct?06:45

Guest80193Hello, since I upgraded from 17.10 to 18.04, the files/directories I delete that are on a nfs share don't appear in the trash, anyone had any idea? I can't find anything related with google.07:44
m4ti think at least with a samba "mount" using gvfs, there is no trash as it's a remote share07:47
m4ti dunno how it'd behave if it were a root-mounted nfs share though.07:47
m4tGuest80193: e.g https://pasteboard.co/Hiwq9pz.png07:49
Guest80193To be clear, the deleted files goes to the .Trash-userid directory at the root of the mounted share, but they don't appear when I open the trash in caja.07:49
m4tdoes it create a file in .local/share/Trash/info/ ?07:52
Guest80193No, but I'm not sure it was the case with the 17.10 release07:53
Guest80193because it's currently not the case when I do it on a external HD07:54
Guest80193and yet the delete files on the external HD appear in the trash07:55
enycGuest80193: hrrm thats a godo question!08:20

micibicihi all, was wandering if anyone can tell me: a) when will bionic be available through do-release-upgrade; and b) if at this point there is any difference in simply upgrading with "do-release-upgrade -d" ?09:09
m4tmicibici: i heard in #ubuntu-release-party that for LTS do-release, it's not added to the metadata file until after the first point release which will be in a couple months09:14
m4tmicibici: but it's only in https://changelogs.ubuntu.com/meta-release-development, not https://changelogs.ubuntu.com/meta-release and https://changelogs.ubuntu.com/meta-release-lts09:15
m4tso yeah, -d. that's how i upgraded earlier.09:16
m4tand no difference afaik, as long as your mirror is up to date09:16
m4t*https://changelogs.ubuntu.com/meta-release-lts-development too09:17

elliottman98Hello. I am using Ubuntu MATE 16.04 LTS and am looking to upgrade (in-place) to 18.04. I understand that if I install all updates then the Update Manager will notify of the new version, however I do not want to apply some of my updates. How can I trigger the in-place upgrade notification? Thank you for any help you can provide.17:08
