[04:56] <HUGO-HQL> Hi. I have problem with the following message "pwm-lpss invalid resource"
[04:57] <HUGO-HQL> I can only enter error mode
[07:37] <cerebrain> hi guys, I'm really new to Ubuntu-flavors and I want to migrate completely from w7
[07:37] <cerebrain> so I'm looking for a good media player
[07:37] <cerebrain> i was searching and found out that mpv is most recommended
[07:37] <Unit193> mpv or vlc, or even the default of parole?
[07:38] <cerebrain> searching more, I saw a nice one that it's based on libmpv
[07:38] <cerebrain> it's called mpc-qt
[07:38] <cerebrain> now, I'm trying to install it to see how well it does
[07:38] <diogenes_> cerebrain, smplayer is one of the best
[07:38] <cerebrain> thanks diogenes, I'll install it too
[07:39] <cerebrain> want to try a couple that i'm interested in
[07:39] <cerebrain> to decide then
[07:39] <cerebrain> but well, the point is that
[07:39] <cerebrain> mpc-qt guide tells me that I should have some libraries installed before I start the process
[07:39] <diogenes_> cerebrain, install also smplayer skins which is a separate package and sometimes doesn't get installed by default
[07:39] <cerebrain> so I went into packages.ubuntu
[07:40] <cerebrain> and I'm trying to install some libraries but when I run the command on the terminal
[07:40] <cerebrain> it says that it couldn't find the packages
[07:40] <cerebrain> so my question is
[07:40] <cerebrain> how can I know the proper package name of the library? since i'm pretty sure that's my mistake
[07:41] <cerebrain> -this is one of the libraries i'm trying to install https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/qtcreator-
[07:41] <diogenes_> cerebrain, mpc-qt is not present in the default repositories so it wouldn't be recommended to install it
[07:42] <cerebrain> I have been reading some commentaries made on github about the project and, so far, it doesn't present a lot of problems
[07:43] <diogenes_> if you using packages from github then you should learn a lot about compilling stuff
[07:43] <cerebrain> no offense there, but by that logic I should keep old versions of my software because Ubuntu takes quite a while to add them to the default repositories
[07:44] <cerebrain> I mean, qbittorrent on the repositories it's on 4.0.3 but 4.1.1 was released not so long ago (after 4.1.0 and 4.0.4)
[07:45] <cerebrain> I'm trying so, could you give me some resources if possible? I'm genuinely interested in learning that :D
[07:47] <diogenes_> cerebrain, there are two types of linux distros: stable and rolling, xubuntu is stable so you don't expect the newest bleeding edge software to run on a stable distro, you get only what's well tested and bug fixed so you can use it without any crashes or bugs, if you wanna use the absolutely newest versions of the software, you should pick a rolling or testing branch of linux distros but in that case you have to be ready
[07:47] <diogenes_> to meet a lot of bugs, unstable work, crashes and headache and you have to be very experienced in order to debug and fix some of the bugs.
[07:50] <cerebrain> you're right, diogenes_
[07:51] <cerebrain> but, taking that aside for a moment
[07:51] <cerebrain> could you help me with the libraries thing?
[07:52] <diogenes_> provide the link to github page
[07:53] <cerebrain> https://github.com/cmdrkotori/mpc-qt#prerequisites
[07:54] <diogenes_> so which libraries you have troubles with?
[07:55] <cerebrain> I haven't tried installing none of them except qtcreator, which can be found here https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/qtcreator
[07:56] <cerebrain> I try to run the command sudo apt-get install qtcreator 4.5.2-3ubuntu2 (and many other combinatorios including "_", etc)
[07:57] <cerebrain> I'm sure I'm writing it wrong, so my question is: how do I know the packages names?
[07:59] <cerebrain> I tried with the brackets, without the brackets, including the [universe], without it too. But none of this works.
[08:00] <diogenes_> cerebrain, to install all the libraries you run: sudo apt install qtcreator qt5-default libqt5x11extras5-dev qttools5-dev-tools libmpv-dev
[08:00] <diogenes_> no need for any magic
[08:00] <cerebrain> Quick question
[08:00] <cerebrain> why it doesn't work with apt-get?
[08:01] <cerebrain> I found that "problem" a couple of times
[08:01] <cfhowlett> apt-get has been deprecated.  learn to use apt.  man apt will teach you the details
[08:01] <diogenes_> because it was replaced with apt
[08:03] <cerebrain> I just did an installation using apt-get like, yesterday
[08:04] <cerebrain> guys, I'm sure it seems like i'm retarded and I'm sorry but, I'm trying to learn so... sorry for bothering that much
[08:04] <cfhowlett> it's been deprecated.  over time, it will be completely disabled.  use apt.
[08:04] <cfhowlett> and no one here thinks ill of you
[08:06] <cerebrain> thank you, cfhowlett
[08:06] <cerebrain> i'm looking for documentation on apt
[08:06] <cfhowlett> happy2help!
[08:06] <cerebrain> so i catch up
[08:06] <cfhowlett> terminal time:        man apt
[08:07] <cerebrain> wow
[08:07] <cerebrain> thx
[08:07] <cerebrain> the terminal sure is powerful
[08:08] <cfhowlett> don't forget!   with great power ...
[08:08] <cerebrain> comes great responsability :-D
[08:09] <cfhowlett> indeed.  everything the gui does can be accomplished on the terminal as well.
[08:10] <cerebrain> i'll look documentation on using the terminal
[08:10] <cerebrain> it seems interesting to be able to do everything from writing commands
[08:11] <cerebrain> instead of clicking
[08:11] <cfhowlett> you will certainly learn more from gettting some mastery of the termninal
[08:13] <cfhowlett> cerebrain, as stated previously, change apt-get to apt         all other commands should still work, IIRC  https://files.fosswire.com/2008/04/ubunturef.pdf
