[09:12] <diogenes_> hey guys, why doesn't xubuntu come with gufw?
[09:16] <odc> i didn't even know it existed! Could be useful
[09:19] <well_laid_lawn> !info gufw
[09:20] <well_laid_lawn> seems it's there
[09:20] <diogenes_> well_laid_lawn, yes but it doesn't come pre-installed whereas it's a must have tool.
[09:20] <well_laid_lawn> tried searching for gui-ufw ?
[09:21] <well_laid_lawn> !info gui-ufw
[09:21] <well_laid_lawn> maybbe not
[09:21] <well_laid_lawn> must have is relative
[09:22] <diogenes_> well_laid_lawn, a firewall i guess is always a must have tool, xubuntu comes with no firewall at all if i'm correct?
[09:23] <well_laid_lawn> I never have a need for one
[09:23] <diogenes_> hmm ok
[09:23] <well_laid_lawn> being behind a nated router
[09:24] <diogenes_> and what about vpn filter?
[09:25] <well_laid_lawn> why would that be relevant ?

[11:59] <xubuntu32d> Ok
[11:59] <xubuntu32d> Thx
[11:59] <xubuntu32d> I believe it is because the disk gets corrupted when I open any browser

[13:55] <zors> Hi, I'm trying to upgrade to 18.04 from 17.10 but the upgrader has been stuck on "Setting up grub-pc" for a while now... What should I do?
[13:57] <GridCube> wait
[13:59] <zors> How long could it take? It's been like this for an hour now.
[14:01] <GridCube> mmmm
[14:01] <GridCube> that's too much
[14:01] <GridCube> but the problem is that if you reboot and grub is not properly set up you wont be able to log back in
[14:01] <GridCube> you could break the installer but DONT reboot
[14:01] <genii> Is this at the command-line?
[14:02] <GridCube> then run the updater again
[14:09] <zors> @genii It says "Setting up grub-pc" in the terminal output inside of the upgrader window.
[15:17] <qwebirc37304> Hello
[15:18] <qwebirc37304> Someone could help me with a problem i had with xubuntu?
[15:20] <diogenes_> !ask
[15:34] <qwebirc37304> A time after opening any browser in xubuntu I receive a bus error and an input/output error. This makes my computer can't open any new program and closes all the opened windows. I am not able to power off or reboot the computer anyway too. Here I attach some screenshots of the errors shown: https://imgur.com/a/cLjLl87
[15:36] <qwebirc37304> The previous message describes my problem. Thanks for your help :}
[15:39] <diogenes_> qwebirc37304, laptop/desktop? HDD/SSD?
[15:40] <qwebirc37304> It is a laptop with a HDD. I used the command fsck to repair the damaged files but didn't work.
[15:40] <qwebirc37304> The problem still appeared
[15:42] <diogenes_> run: lsblk -f | nc termbin.com 9999
[15:42] <diogenes_> paste here the link that you get
[15:49] <qwebirc37304> I am running the windows partition because my problem with xubuntu, so I can't execute that
[15:50] <diogenes_> ok the most probably something's going bad with your linux partition, i'd suggest to boot a live usb session, backup your data and re-install it
[15:51] <qwebirc37304> I did that, but the problem still appeared
[15:52] <diogenes_> then it's bad blocks, HDD probably dying
[15:54] <qwebirc37304> The windows partition is perfect and it is also installed in the HDD
[15:55] <qwebirc37304> I had installed Lubuntu a few weeks ago and runned with no problems
[15:57] <diogenes_> qwebirc37304, here is another try, you delete all the linux partitions, you format them to ntfs, then you run a disk check on windows then you create all the linux partitions (like / (ext4) /swap) from windows using tools like Minitool Partition Wizart, then reboot and re-install linux on the ready made partitions.
