| cmma | hi, I lubuntu 16 lts, what is the propper way to upgrade to 18 lts? | 02:31 |
|---|---|---|
| tsimonq2 | Wait until 18.04.1 is released. ;) | 02:31 |
| cmma | why? 18.04 is not good to upgrade to? | 02:31 |
| tsimonq2 | It is, but that's when upgrades are enabled. | 02:32 |
| tsimonq2 | It allows us to work out any issues before releasing to LTS users. | 02:32 |
| cmma | I see | 02:32 |
| tsimonq2 | Anyway, we'll announce it on Lubuntu.me when it's available. | 02:33 |
| cmma | is that the only option? if I really wanted to upgrae to 18.04 there is no way? | 02:33 |
| tsimonq2 | You *can* if you want to. | 02:34 |
| tsimonq2 | sudo do-release-upgrade -d in the terminal. | 02:34 |
| cmma | any risks doing so? | 02:35 |
| tsimonq2 | Not known at the moment, but if you do find anything, please do let us know. | 02:35 |
| cmma | laright, I'll see what to do | 02:35 |
| cmma | thanks a lot for the info | 02:35 |
| tsimonq2 | No problem. :) | 02:35 |
| cmma | :) | 02:35 |

| n-iCe | hi | 04:25 |
| tsimonq2 | hi | 04:26 |
| n-iCe | bluetooth in linux sucks right | 04:39 |
| wxl | no | 04:39 |
| wxl | bluetooth sucks | 04:39 |
| wxl | period | 04:39 |
| tsimonq2 | LOL | 04:40 |
| tsimonq2 | #truth | 04:40 |
| wxl | i am not even joking | 04:40 |
| lynorian | just like how all printers can be annoying | 04:41 |
| wxl | good point, lynorian, but i'm pretty sure printers are worse | 04:41 |
| tsimonq2 | Graphics cards top it all off. | 04:42 |
| n-iCe | I like bluetooth. | 04:43 |
| n-iCe | I use bluetooth almost in everything. | 04:43 |
| n-iCe | Phone, car, heasets, bike helmet, keyboard, mouse, speakers. | 04:43 |
| n-iCe | But I can't make it work correctly in lubuntu | 04:43 |
| wxl | n-iCe: all my bluetooth devices work fine and have. although sometimes audio can be particularly annoying. | 04:49 |
| * lynorian has nothing bluetooth | 04:52 | |
| n-iCe | wxl: yeah can't connect my headsets | 05:03 |
| wxl | n-iCe: sometimes the issue is the sound server. forgetting bluetooth devices, restarting the sound server, and re-pairing usually does the trick | 05:04 |
| deskwizard | howdy! | 10:40 |
| deskwizard | quick question this morning... when I run -> "sudo grub-install --bood-directory=/mnt/ubuntu/boot /dev/sda" (for example...) from a liveCD, it won't take into consideration modifications I make to /etc/default/grub (of the mounted install), correct? | 10:43 |
| deskwizard | s/bood/boot/ | 10:46 |
| deskwizard | found a direction to hunt in, have a nice day :) | 11:14 |

| cimbakahn | Hello! | 20:29 |
| cimbakahn | why do i have to type in my password every time i reboot lxde? | 20:29 |
| cimbakahn | Can someone please help me? When i reboot it is supposed to boot into my desktop, not ask me for my password. | 21:04 |
| wxl | cimbakahn: what version? | 21:06 |
| cimbakahn | 18.04 | 21:07 |
| * pavlushka guesses some misunderstaing | 21:07 | |
| pavlushka | cimbakahn: do you need to provide password on login after starting the system? | 21:09 |
| * pavlushka talking about first boot not reboot | 21:10 | |
| wxl | you can go to the users and groups app and change it there | 21:11 |
| cimbakahn | I reboot, and before i get to the desktop, there is a login box expecting me to put something in it. I type in my password, and i go to desktop. | 21:12 |
| wxl | ^^^ | 21:12 |
| cimbakahn | I will look there. | 21:12 |
| pavlushka | wxl: shouldn't that be normal unless the user set to autologin? | 21:13 |
| wxl | pavlushka: default is requiring a password | 21:13 |
| pavlushka | wxl: yes and that default will also require the user to put password on every reboot, if I am not wrong. | 21:14 |
| wxl | that's correct | 21:15 |
| wxl | but if you make that one change, it will fix it | 21:15 |
| pavlushka | cimbakahn: ^^ | 21:15 |
| wxl | however, one can set the autologin feature within the installer | 21:15 |
| cimbakahn | I am there. What now? https://imgur.com/a/dMkmzlt | 21:16 |
| wxl | @cimbakahn: click "change" next to "asked on login" | 21:19 |
| cimbakahn | I sent the screenshot. What do i do? | 21:19 |
| cimbakahn | Ok. | 21:20 |
| cimbakahn | Ok. I will reboot to see if it works. BRB. | 21:22 |
| cimbakahn | Well. That is still not what i expected, but it's better. | 21:24 |
| wxl | what are you expecting? | 21:25 |
| cimbakahn | There is a box with my name in it, and a button that reads 'login'. I click that button, and shortly i'm at the desktop. | 21:26 |
| cimbakahn | Well. Usually i don't see a login screen at all because it just goes directly to the desktop. | 21:27 |
| wxl | ok we have to poke lightdm | 21:27 |
| cimbakahn | Do you mean this ----> https://imgur.com/a/6u7OgD0 | 21:29 |
| wxl | no, that won't do the trick | 21:32 |
| cimbakahn | Ok. What then? | 21:33 |
| wxl | create a file /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/12-autologin.conf | 21:33 |
| wxl | it should have this content: | 21:33 |
| wxl | [Seat:*] | 21:33 |
| wxl | autologin-user=your-login-name | 21:33 |
| cimbakahn | Ok. I found that folder, but there is nothing in it, so i guess i have to use leafpad to create a file inside it named '12-autologin.conf' , correct? | 21:38 |
| wxl | i did say "create," yes :) | 21:39 |
| cimbakahn | Like this ----> https://imgur.com/a/xLodnhx | 21:43 |
| cimbakahn | Oh! I had to remove the <wxl> , correct? | 21:45 |
| Wafficus91 | hi there, total linux noobie here, need help installing a MIDI based driver for my musical keyboard. https://github.com/hansfbaier/ultranova4linux | 21:46 |
| Wafficus91 | I did the "rules" section already. Does anyone know what i have to do with the .cpp files? or the make folder? | 21:46 |
| wxl | cimbakahn: yeah i'm pretty sure that lightdm isn't programmed to expect my nick in there | 21:47 |
| cimbakahn | HA!HA!HA!HA! | 21:48 |
| wxl | Wafficus91: unfortunately you've just reached an area of difficulty. unless compiling your software yourself sounds like fun, you should try to find resources that exist within the ubuntu repositories | 21:49 |
| wxl | oh and this requires JACK too | 21:49 |
| Wafficus91 | I see | 21:49 |
| Wafficus91 | yeah to be honest | 21:49 |
| wxl | this is advanced stuff. can walk you through it, but it's not easy. | 21:49 |
| Wafficus91 | I'm a good super user | 21:49 |
| Wafficus91 | but this kind of thing is beyond me a little bit | 21:49 |
| Wafficus91 | I've written a couple of Python webscrapers | 21:50 |
| Wafficus91 | but I'm not sure what to do with drivers for stuff like this | 21:50 |
| wxl | typically with compilation, this will do the trick: | 21:50 |
| wxl | ./configure | 21:50 |
| wxl | make | 21:50 |
| wxl | make install | 21:50 |
| wxl | *typically* | 21:50 |
| Wafficus91 | the only reason I resort to this is because there are only Windows and mac based drivers available for this keyboard | 21:50 |
| Wafficus91 | hmm gotcha | 21:50 |
| Wafficus91 | so change directory to that folder right | 21:50 |
| Wafficus91 | and type "./configure" | 21:50 |
| Wafficus91 | then "make install" | 21:50 |
| Wafficus91 | all in terminal right? | 21:50 |
| wxl | yep | 21:51 |
| wxl | none of this is going to work if you dont' have jack installed and that's a whole different ball of wax | 21:51 |
| wxl | ideally for that, you have a real time kernel installed, too | 21:51 |
| Wafficus91 | I have jack installed thankfully | 21:51 |
| Wafficus91 | I think it came with LMSS | 21:51 |
| wxl | i know lmss is jack capable but i didn't think it was jack-only | 21:52 |
| wxl | even still you probably don't have it running, so you'll have to figure that part out too | 21:52 |
| wxl | the command line is not very friendly :) | 21:52 |
| cimbakahn | Ok. I'll try it again. BRB. | 21:53 |
| Wafficus91 | gotcha man, thanks for the details | 21:53 |
| Wafficus91 | I'll try those two commands | 21:53 |
| Wafficus91 | appreciate it much my dude | 21:53 |
| wxl | np. good luck | 21:53 |
| wxl | oh | 21:53 |
| wxl | a word of warning: if there's other dependencies, you'll have to figure that out along the way :( | 21:53 |
| Wafficus91 | yeah I saw | 21:54 |
| Wafficus91 | it did ask for jack | 21:54 |
| wxl | oh and qjackctl should help you | 21:54 |
| Wafficus91 | as you predicted | 21:54 |
| Wafficus91 | jack and liblo are missing | 21:54 |
| wxl | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/What%20is%20JACK | 21:54 |
| Wafficus91 | so maybe i'll try apt install | 21:54 |
| wxl | yes, that, in general | 21:54 |
| wxl | but you'll need the -dev packages since what it needs are libraries to use for compilation rather than the binaries themselves | 21:54 |
| wxl | and THAT is the part of compilation that really sucks :) | 21:55 |
| Wafficus91 | oh aarons | 21:55 |
| Wafficus91 | I saw that sorry though it was spam | 21:55 |
| Wafficus91 | do that again, never pm'd on Hexchat | 21:55 |
| Wafficus91 | gotcha | 21:55 |
| cimbakahn | Ok. Looks like it works now. Thank you very much wxl! | 21:56 |
