[07:43] <adry> hello?
[07:43] <adry> soy nuevo en esto
[07:44] <sixwheeledbeast> !es
[07:44] <ubottu> En la mayoría de los canales de Ubuntu, se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español entre al canal #ubuntu-es; escriba " /join #ubuntu-es " (sin comillas) y presione intro.
[07:44] <sixwheeledbeast> !ask
[07:44] <ubottu> Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience
[07:44] <adry> vale gracias
[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
