| veeseaczar2 | Do we know if the hanging-forever-on-GNOME-Startup bug affecting Bionic carries over into Xubuntu after updating to the newest linix generic kernel? | 01:56 |

| veeseaczar2 | Linux*** | 01:56 |
| xubuntu36d | I cannot get the wireless interface to work whatsever in xubuntu, or studiobuntu, both 18.04. I was sccessful in ubuntu desktop with bionic beaver but the driver fix wont carry over to the other two installs. The main difference being settings managers between desktop and xfc environments. Any ideas | 03:16 |

| Unit193 | Isn't that Windows? So wouldn't you need to use Wine? I'd check the appdb. | 09:14 |
| New | Sorry for The direct question | 09:14 |
| New | Wine is a Programm? | 09:15 |
| diogenes_ | New, what is the exact name of the game? | 09:16 |
| Unit193 | diogenes_: He already said it. | 09:18 |
| diogenes_ | New, here you can find a complete guide of howto: https://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflinux/comments/5ukgur/a_revised_guide_for_installing_league_of_legends/ | 09:19 |
| Spass | for Windows games I usually use Lutris, it has some useful installation scripts, but according to this page LoL has "garbage" status currently - https://lutris.net/games/league-of-legends/ | 09:23 |
| Unit193 | \o/ | 09:24 |
| Spass | I use Lutris to play Doom II: Hell on Earth ;D | 09:25 |
| Unit193 | I have wine-staging for StarCraft. | 09:26 |
| miroslav1 | Hello. :) | 12:35 |
| miroslav1 | I have not used IRC since game Live for Speed... :) | 12:39 |
| Spass | hello miroslav1, and what year was that? | 12:42 |
| miroslav1 | Hm... 2005... | 12:44 |
| Spass | I've started using Linux around 2005 | 12:50 |
| miroslav1 | :D | 12:52 |
| miroslav1 | I started using Linux a year ago... :-X | 12:53 |
| Spass | and by the fact your here now I assume you've liked it :) | 12:55 |
| Spass | *you're here | 12:57 |
| miroslav1 | Yes. :) | 12:57 |
| Spass | cool, you're using Xubuntu 18.04 now? | 12:58 |
| miroslav1 | Yes, last version - 18.04 here... | 13:00 |
| miroslav1 | I tried different distos/derivatives, I think the xubuntu maybe the best one I've used so far. For home/desktop users... | 13:01 |
| Spass | well, we're on #xubuntu so it's probably not a surprise that I agree with you :) | 13:02 |
| Spass | I've upgraded to 18.04 from 17.10 yesterday and everything works like a charm | 13:02 |
| miroslav1 | Same here, works like a charm... ;) | 13:08 |
| miroslav1 | I'm waiting for Debian and Ubuntu @ LXQt, for test/try... | 13:22 |
| Spass | I'm not sure when Lubuntu will go LXQt, 18.10 maybe? | 13:26 |
| Spass | yeah, they announced that - https://news.softpedia.com/news/lubuntu-is-finally-moving-to-lxqt-by-default-with-the-lubuntu-18-10-release-520951.shtml | 13:27 |
| Spass | so soon | 13:27 |
| miroslav1 | Yes. :) | 13:27 |
| miroslav1 | https://wiki.debian.org/LXQt | 13:28 |
| Spass | I always used GTK-based desktop environments | 13:28 |
| miroslav1 | There will be live-iso's soon... | 13:28 |
| miroslav1 | I have an older computer, Intel E7200 @ 2.5 GHz and 6 GBs of RAM, so, XFCE, LXDE, LXQt is best for me... | 13:34 |
| miroslav1 | And nVidia 9600 GT. | 13:34 |
| xubuntu29w | Moin Moin | 14:38 |
| xubuntu29w | How can i install league of legends on xubuntu ??? Sorry newbie | 14:39 |
| pmjdebruijn | given that it's Windows software you'll need to setup wine | 14:41 |
| pmjdebruijn | but keep in mind that wine is a "see if you're lucky" kinda thing | 14:41 |
| pmjdebruijn | sometimes stuff works, sometimes it doesn't | 14:41 |
| pmjdebruijn | xubuntu29w: if playing Windows games is a big thing for you, having a dual boot is probably the better option | 14:42 |
| genii | !appdb | 14:43 |
| ubottu | The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org - Join #winehq for application help | 14:43 |
| genii | You can check with the database to see what compatibility is like, and also ask directly in their channel about it | 14:44 |
| zleap | hi | 15:12 |
| miroslav1 | hi | 15:12 |
| zleap | how are things going, xubuntu seems to be running great on my netbook, with 2gb ram | 15:12 |
| zleap | i am trying to work out if I can optimise further and make it look a little more geeky | 15:15 |
| Spass | hello zleap | 15:19 |
| Spass | my first Xubuntu install was on a netbook too :) | 15:19 |
| zleap | this is quite an old netbook, but it does what i need, i just wondered if something like windowmaker would look more geeky | 15:20 |
| zleap | or a very low resource window manager | 15:20 |
| Spass | 2GB RAM should be enough to use Xfce with Xfwm, but if you're looking to cut some MB in RAM usage you can try Openbox + xfce4-panel | 15:24 |
| Spass | and if you really care about resources and you want to be geeky, try IceWM ;) Derek was impressed by it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B3ml__gL0Ms | 15:25 |
| zleap | just watching | 15:28 |
| Spass | I've recently installed Xubuntu 18.04 on some older laptop with Intel Celeron and 2GB RAM and it runs just fine | 15:28 |
| zleap | thanks | 15:28 |
| zleap | it is when I am out and about it would turn heads, graned xfce may do but some of them really would , mind you console + tmux + cmatrix can probably do the same | 15:28 |
| Spass | yup, you can make Xfce look geeky, adding conky, some panel plugins etc. but those will always take some RAM | 15:34 |
| Spass | good choice for a netbook is to keep it simple, don't run too many apps at startup or in the background | 15:37 |
| zleap | yeah i got rid of a few that were starting up and were not needed | 15:58 |
| zleap | gkrellm is good, but it started right in the middle of the screen which is not what i wanted, and I am not sure where the settings are to fix that | 15:59 |
| Spass | never used that program, but maybe there are some hidden config files in ~/.gkrellm or ~/.config/gkrellm | 16:01 |
| Spass | also you may try to change window placement settings in the "xfwm4-tweaks-settings" | 16:02 |
| Spass | (move slider max to the left) | 16:02 |
| zleap | Spass: thanks, | 16:24 |

Any ideas" | 19:05 |
| veeseaczar2 | Bro same | 19:05 |
| veeseaczar2 | My installation wont recognize internet connections of any kind.... Ethernet or wireless | 19:57 |
| diogenes_ | veeseaczar2, what do you mean? | 20:01 |
| anonimus | Hi there! I've got a problem with Xubuntu 18.04. When I have to disconect an USB device, it doesn't disconect it. Does anybody know anything about it? | 20:09 |
| diogenes_ | anonimus, what does it do? | 20:11 |
| veeseaczar2 | Many things. It sees the card but will not connect to the wifi router. It also will not recognize when an ethernet cable has been plugged in. | 20:19 |
| veeseaczar2 | When i use the network manager to establish these connections, nothing happens. | 20:19 |
| veeseaczar2 | This all happened after the latest update. | 20:20 |
| veeseaczar2 | Well let me rephrase. I installed, and it worked. Then xubuntu self updated and it kept only booting to tty1. So I reinstalled, but the liveusb indicates only the wifi card durin set up. No networks. | 20:21 |
| veeseaczar2 | After that install completed, it manifested as an inability to connect to wifi. | 20:22 |
| veeseaczar2 | If this is at all meaningful: sudo rfkill list all says phy0 Wireless Lan is hardblocked | 20:23 |
| diogenes_ | veeseaczar2, boot the live session usb and see if it works there | 20:23 |
| crond | Hi, i just installed the Nvidia drivers 390, and I am getting 'Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual or fbconfig' when I run glxinfo. X is working it seems though. Can anyone suggest anything? | 20:23 |
| veeseaczar2 | diogenes_: it is not functioning on either the install or the live usb | 20:29 |
| diogenes_ | veeseaczar2, what year your laptop was made? | 20:31 |
| veeseaczar2 | Old enough to ship with windows 8 and an AMD A8 Mullins apu | 20:32 |
| diogenes_ | veeseaczar2, then try live 16.04 | 20:32 |
| veeseaczar2 | Man. I moved to 18.04 to get support for Gallium Nine | 20:33 |
| veeseaczar2 | The point is it *was* working. I had an install of 18.04 that ran and connected to wifi an everything... | 20:34 |
| veeseaczar2 | This is dissappointing. | 20:34 |
| flow | exit | 20:58 |
| Spass | veeseaczar2, do you have some kind of switch / key shortcut with Fn to disable/enable WiFi? maybe look into BIOS and see if the WiFi is enabled there | 21:15 |
| Spass | also, what's your WiFi card and what driver are you using? command "inxi -N" | 21:16 |
| veeseaczar2 | Its a qualcomm atheros... Using ath9k drivers | 21:20 |
| veeseaczar2 | Im trying a live boot of antergos as well .. Same issue... Its like the linux kernel itself cant get to it | 21:21 |
| veeseaczar2 | Exact model is atheros qca9565 / ar565 | 21:25 |
| well_laid_lawn | have you checked dmesg ? | 21:35 |
| well_laid_lawn | or rfkill ? | 21:36 |
| veeseaczar2 | Hardblocked | 21:40 |
| veeseaczar2 | I do not know what this means | 21:40 |
| veeseaczar2 | What errors am i looking for in dmesg | 21:45 |
| Spass | veeseaczar2, is that Acer? | 21:48 |
| Spass | there are many threads about "atheros qca9565 hardb locked" on google, and many with possible solutions | 21:51 |
| veeseaczar2 | Rad | 21:52 |
| veeseaczar2 | Just weird that it started *after* a working install of the same distro in question | 21:52 |
| Spass | echo "blacklist acer_wmi" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-acer-wmi.conf | 21:54 |
| Spass | this command helped a lot of users on acer for example | 21:54 |
| Spass | but there are some solutions for other brands too | 21:54 |
| Spass | other users solved it just by Fn+F2 shortcut for WiFi (key combination may differ) | 21:56 |
| veeseaczar2 | Spass youre asking about the brand of my card or laptop? | 21:56 |
| Spass | laptop | 21:57 |
| veeseaczar2 | Toshiba | 21:57 |
| Spass | other solution "I entered bios using F2 and then reset the BIOS settings using F9 and it worked." | 21:58 |
| Spass | ok, so did you try pressing shortcut for WiFi enable/disable on your keyboard? every laptop should have that, or did you try looking into bios settings? | 22:00 |
| veeseaczar2 | Yeah. Does nothing. In the antergos live cd it "enables/disables" without actual effect too. | 22:01 |
| veeseaczar2 | Im trying multiple distros as a control. | 22:01 |
| Spass | another solution - https://askubuntu.com/a/998645/827866 | 22:02 |
| Spass | possible something in bios | 22:02 |
| Spass | are you dual booting with windows on that machine? | 22:02 |
| veeseaczar2 | No. Linux is the only distro. | 22:05 |
| veeseaczar2 | I have two live cds | 22:06 |
| veeseaczar2 | Er usbs | 22:06 |
| Spass | veeseaczar2, maybe try this - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1528009/comments/2 | 22:09 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1528009 in network-manager (Ubuntu) "hard blocked rfkill status of second WiFi adapter is incorrectly handled" [Undecided,New] | 22:09 |
| Spass | it's about Toshiba | 22:09 |
| Spass | seems like you need to reset the BIOS by holding the power button | 22:09 |
| veeseaczar2 | Hm. | 22:11 |
| xubuntu22i | hello | 22:19 |
| veeseaczar2 | WAAAH! *THAT* gottem! | 22:19 |
| veeseaczar2 | Quote unquote | 22:19 |
| veeseaczar2 | Damned bios. | 22:19 |
| Spass | veeseaczar2, fixed? | 22:22 |
| veeseaczar2 | After 12 hours of trouble shooting.... I had to hold down the power button. | 22:22 |
| veeseaczar2 | So now we're back to zero. The next test is to see if the apt upgrade breaks it again | 22:23 |
| n-iCe | hi | 23:32 |
