| lopta | I have a .iso image to write to a USB flash drive on (what's left of) a Xubuntu host. I typed "mount" to get an idea of what the flash drive might show up as but I can't make head nor tail of it. | 04:32 |
|---|---|---|
| lopta | Ah, I think it might be sdb (looking at dmesg output) | 04:33 |
| lopta | Let's see what happens when I write over that. | 04:36 |
| qwebirc52676 | hi is tthere any way where we can install ubuntu server with wifi ?? | 05:06 |
| lopta | qwebirc52676: I'm not sure but there's an #ubuntu-server channel, I think | 05:06 |
| lopta | They might know. | 05:06 |
| qwebirc52676 | because without interface setting i cnt go to next step | 05:07 |
| qwebirc52676 | *cant | 05:07 |
| lubot5 | <tsimonq2> Try #ubuntu. | 05:07 |
| lopta | qwebirc52676: Did you check to see whether there was an image with the sets already downloaded, so it doesn't demand an Internet connection at install time? | 05:08 |
| lopta | I may be thinking of another operating system. | 05:08 |
| qwebirc52676 | yes i already downloaded and make it boot usb | 05:08 |
| lopta | I'm surprised it's demanding an Internet connection then. | 05:09 |
| qwebirc52676 | also only 2 option Done and backk no option like skip zzzzZZZZZZ | 05:11 |
| lopta | Well that's unfortunate. | 05:12 |
| lopta | I should pick this up again later today. I have work in the morning. | 05:13 |
| lopta | qwebirc52676: Good luck | 05:13 |
| qwebirc52676 | also i found this https://askubuntu.com/questions/1032644/ubuntu-server-18-04-setting-wifi-connections-when-install | 05:14 |

| deewreckd | can i get pointed in the right directions for recommened driver for an older AMD HD7640G graphics driver? | 17:04 |
| lynorian | do the default ones it ships with not work? | 17:05 |
| deewreckd | its loaded with xorg | 17:06 |
| deewreckd | but i dont believe its actually using the gpu, just the cpu | 17:06 |
| deewreckd | but then again i cant prove this without some sort of usage monitor | 17:06 |
| lynorian | well what driver is it using did you have to boot with nomodeset or something when you boot it | 17:10 |
| lynorian | that just uses the cpu but will get it booted | 17:10 |
| deewreckd | as far as i know its just using xorg, unless i dont understand what xorg actually does | 17:12 |
| lynorian | xorg is a display server and there are many different graphics drivers for xorg | 17:12 |
| lynorian | xorg has been around seemingly forever | 17:12 |
| deewreckd | well i rember there beeing a package called xserver-xorg-video-ati | 17:17 |
| lynorian | I think that would use the radeon driver though but I don't have many amd machines or gpus | 17:18 |
| deewreckd | yeah i;ve noticed alot of reddit and stack posts are about nvidia. | 17:21 |

| lopta | Right, that's Lubuntu on my daughter's PC. | 23:38 |
| lopta | Let's see if it boots. | 23:38 |
| lopta | Success! | 23:42 |
| lopta | Time to mow the lawn. | 23:44 |
| lopta | (I'm told) | 23:45 |
| G5_ | Which version is the latest that supports a PowerMac G5? Is it the 18.04 Desktop 64 or the 17.04 Desktop PPC? Thanks for supporting PPCs! | 23:54 |
| wxl | we dont' support PPC anymore | 23:54 |
| wxl | at least not on current versions | 23:54 |
| wxl | 14.04 still has PPC support | 23:55 |
| G5_ | The 17.04 PPC 64 is still on the website for download. Can I use it? | 23:55 |
| wxl | oh i'm sorry yes 16.04 has it, too. not 17.04 | 23:55 |
| G5_ | Right 16.04. Ok. Last question. Do you know if 16.04 will run current versions of Firefox for security reasons? Thanks. | 23:57 |
| wxl | !info firefox xenial | 23:57 |
| ubottu | firefox (source: firefox): Safe and easy web browser from Mozilla. In component main, is optional. Version 61.0.1+build1-0ubuntu0.16.04.1 (xenial), package size 44136 kB, installed size 168090 kB | 23:57 |
| wxl | ^^ that's the lastest version of firefox in xenial | 23:58 |
| G5_ | I’ll look that up but is that a recent/secure version? | 23:58 |
| wxl | all software teams are always working towards ensuring security | 23:59 |
| wxl | especially with LTS releases | 23:59 |
| wxl | that said, support from Lubuntu ends April 2019 on xenial | 23:59 |
| wxl | you'll still get updated packages from the archive in general until 2021, though | 23:59 |
