ssarah_ | Hi. On xubuntu 18. Just installed eclipse from apt. Doesn't start. Anyone else experiencing the same? | 02:57 |
---|---|---|
nikolam | Anyone knows how I can make lightdm appear at the same resolution as with log in and use, if screen is locked - lightdm is displayed in very low resolution when entering password after screenlock , instead | 10:53 |
nikolam | I solved it by installing xscreensaver and setting it to spare monitor from working by turning off power if not used. | 10:53 |
pmjdebru1jn | that's quite strange | 11:15 |
pmjdebru1jn | light-locker does change vt | 11:15 |
pmjdebru1jn | which graphics card do you have? | 11:15 |
pmjdebru1jn | have you looked in /var/log/Xorg.0.log if anything pops up? | 11:15 |
nikolam | nvidia 9800gt | 11:18 |
pmjdebru1jn | heh | 11:18 |
pmjdebru1jn | presumably you're using the nvidia binary blob driver? | 11:18 |
nikolam | pmjdebru1jn, yes 340 from Ubuntu repo | 11:25 |
nikolam | using xscreensaver made it behave | 11:26 |
nikolam | I just can't get OpenCL to work | 11:26 |
pmjdebru1jn | no xscreensaver didn't make it behave at all | 11:33 |
pmjdebru1jn | xscreensaver doesn't do the same thing | 11:33 |
pmjdebru1jn | therefore you don't see the issue | 11:33 |
nikolam | ok | 11:33 |
pmjdebru1jn | the nvidia blob driver probably doesn't handle the console switch properly | 11:33 |
pmjdebru1jn | presumably because it has no drm counterpart | 11:33 |
pmjdebru1jn | though i'm not an expert | 11:33 |
pmjdebru1jn | but it's probably nvidia fault | 11:33 |
nikolam | https://bpaste.net/show/884faf52f68e | 11:35 |
pmjdebru1jn | yeah sorry I'm not spending my time on nVidia mess :) | 11:36 |
pmjdebru1jn | don't have much time to begin with | 11:36 |
pmjdebru1jn | at least you have a pointer now :) | 11:36 |
pmjdebru1jn | but again, I'm hardly an expert | 11:36 |
nikolam | Would try Nvida driver form nvidia site, because I don't see OpenCL is working | 11:37 |
pmjdebru1jn | generally I wouldn't recommend it | 11:37 |
pmjdebru1jn | the packages are there for a reason | 11:37 |
nikolam | i'll keep using xscreensaver | 11:37 |
nikolam | ok | 11:37 |
pmjdebru1jn | nikolam: stick around, maybe someone else can be more helpful | 11:54 |
nikolam | No idea how to make OpenCL working. Researching | 11:54 |
xubuntu51d | i can't apt-get update it's stuck at 0% | 12:02 |
Javabean | i can't help, but i know that they would need to know what server is in the /etc/apt/sources.list | 12:04 |
xubuntu51d | ###### Ubuntu Main Repos deb http://in.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ xenial main deb-src http://in.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ xenial main ###### Ubuntu Update Repos deb http://in.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ xenial-security main deb http://in.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ xenial-updates main deb-src http://in.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ xenial-security main deb-src http://in.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ xenial-updates main | 12:05 |
nikolam | I have set to download form "Main server in software-properties-gtk, it helps with problematic mirrors. Even better is to put bug report on your mirror maybe | 12:12 |
nikolam | it's archive.ubuntu.com after setting to Main server | 12:12 |
james1138 | Can I ask a question about Pidgin and Ubuntu here or is there a channel for Pidgin? | 14:01 |
pmjdebru1jn | james1138: you can ask questions about applications, though the knowledge level for any particular application here may very well be lower than any application specific channel | 14:07 |
pmjdebru1jn | james1138: what support oppertunities there are for any particular you, you'd need to check their particular websites | 14:07 |
james1138 | I only found a german IRC for Pidgin. I upgrade to Xubuntu 18.04 and Pidgin will not launch. Has anyone got Pidgin installed and running on 18.04? | 14:14 |
pmjdebru1jn | james1138: what do you see when you start pidgin from a console | 14:16 |
pmjdebru1jn | does it segfault? do you see any error | 14:16 |
pmjdebru1jn | does mv ~/.purple ~/.purple.old allow pidgin to start again? | 14:17 |
=== ChunkzZ is now known as CHiiPM0NK | ||
=== CHiiPM0NK is now known as ChipM0nk | ||
james1138 | sorry for the delay. nothing happens when I click to startup Pidgin | 14:30 |
james1138 | Using PSI+ in the meantime but in the past used Pidgin also for messaging Facebook friends. | 14:33 |
pmjdebru1jn | james1138: you didn't answer any of my questions | 14:42 |
james1138 | Sorry. Last night fed up and removed pidgin from system. | 14:47 |
pmjdebru1jn | james1138: what is your purpose of being here then? | 14:47 |
pmjdebru1jn | gave you me the impression you wanted to troubleshoot the issue? | 14:47 |
james1138 | I started Xubunu less than a month ago and shall need insight from time to time. | 14:48 |
Schtern | i need some fast help | 22:21 |
Schtern | I installed 18.04 LTS and my mistake formatted /home | 22:21 |
Schtern | i of course intended to keep it, just make a clean install | 22:22 |
Schtern | since only the ext4 headers have been written and I havent written anything else, I should be able to restore it as it was | 22:22 |
