[06:49] <diogenes_> is it done?
[06:49] <mate|379> yes it told me some files had to be removed manually though
[06:50] <mate|379> but it installed alot of files

[06:54] <mate|379> s
[06:54] <mate|379> Do I need windows installed secondarily for it to work properly?
[06:56] <mate|379> maybe i need some drivers for my graphics card

[14:11] <greenmanspirit> Good day, I am trying to find a way to trigger the HiDPI settings in mate-tweak when my thunderbolt dock is plugged in and pulled out. I don't see a way to trigger the change from the command line using `mate-tweak -whatever` and I also searched the source and couldn't see how handles the scaling changes to try and add a command line flag. Any guidance will be appreciated. Thank you!
[14:23] <vkareh> greenmanspirit: mate-tweak is mostly just a front for gsettings. Try this from the command line: gsettings set org.mate.interface window-scaling-factor 2
[14:23] <vkareh> (2 is for HiDPI, 1 for regular, 0 for auto-detect)
[14:24] <greenmanspirit> Thank you vkareh, I was thinking that but didn't see gsettings in the source. I am guessing it is in one of the imports.
[17:22] <adry> hello
[17:24] <adry> I would like to know how to download Google Chrome
[17:24] <adry> please
[17:25] <diogenes_> adry, here: https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb
[17:26] <vkareh> adry: have you tried Chromium? It's the open source base of Chrome, and available in the ubuntu repositories
[17:29] <adry> thank you diogenes
[17:29] <adry> vkareh I think we already do it
[17:30] <adry> thank you
[18:31] <adry> can someone tell me how to install youtube / instagram or whatsapp please.
[18:31] <adry> I'm new to this operating system and I still do not control it well
[18:39] <vkareh> adry: youtube/instagram are not apps, they are websites. Use Firefox/Chromium to go to their respective urls. For whatsapp, there are some in the snap store: https://snapcraft.io/whatsdesk and https://snapcraft.io/ubuntu-social-kit - never used any of those (I don't use whatsapp), so I cannot comment on them.
[18:49] <adry> thank you
