dkamerhello! I was wondering if there was an easy way to change my color to full spectrum like there is in plain Ubuntu?08:29
Tomhayeshello?14:54
TomhayesGuys I'm having a really weird issue with a fresh install14:54
EickmeyerHi Tomhayes!14:55
EickmeyerWhat's happening?14:55
Eickmeyer(I might have to ditch in a little while)14:55
TomhayesSO basically, after installing... I just get a default xfce environment when I log in14:56
Eickmeyer18.04? 18.10?14:56
Tomhayesand there's no option for a Ubuntu Studio Session... just says "xfce session" in the dropdown thingy14:56
Tomhayes18.1014:56
Tomhayesbut I have tried both14:56
EickmeyerThat's definitely odd.14:56
EickmeyerUbuntu Studio Session should be showing up there. I'm at a loss at this point.14:57
EickmeyerOvenWerks: If you're around, Tomhayes came from Facebook with this weird issue where our theming is not showing up in a clean install. Any ideas?14:58
TomhayesDid we just discuss this in the FB group?14:58
Tomhayesah yes haha14:58
EickmeyerTomhayes: You might have to wait around for a little while. :/14:59
Tomhayesok no problem :)15:00
Tomhayescan I share images in here or do I need to upload elsewhere?15:00
EickmeyerBy little while, I mean, *ahem* a few hours.15:00
EickmeyerYou can upload to imgur and link them here, no problem.15:00
Tomhayeshttps://imgur.com/a/EraXTLz15:03
Tomhayesthis is where it should appear, right?15:03
Tomhayesin top right?15:03
EickmeyerYep, that's right. Something might be wrong with your ISO download.15:04
EickmeyerJust seems like it's not installing all the way.15:05
Tomhayeshmm, weird. I tried 18.04 and 18.10 so used 2 isos.... also tried 2 USB sticks!15:07
EickmeyerSomething is failing partway through install for you for some reason. That's all I've got. :/15:07
Tomhayeshmm really odd... thanks15:07
TomhayesI'm creating install media on a mac using etcher... is that likely to be a problem?15:09
EickmeyerThat actually might be a problem.15:10
EickmeyerAnd, the cause.15:10
Tomhayeshmmm odd, I'll try something else with a new ISO too15:10
Tomhayeswhats the best thing to use?15:10
EickmeyerHmm... interestingly enough, our official tutorial uses etcher.15:11
Tomhayesoh haha15:12
Eickmeyerhttps://tutorials.ubuntu.com/tutorial/tutorial-create-a-usb-stick-on-macos#015:12
EickmeyerI have to go now. Gotta get the son to school.15:12
OvenWerksif you choose the xfce session first It may set different backgrounds and other things. Then the studio session will just use those settings. So logout to the login screen hit ctl-alt-F1 and login there.15:13
Tomhayesok thanks for your help!15:13
OvenWerksthen do rm -r .config15:13
Tomhayesoooh ok I will try that...15:13
OvenWerks then logout and login with the studio session15:13
OvenWerksthat should reset things.15:14
OvenWerksI had always wanted to remove the xfce option...15:14
TomhayesBut I don't see the Studio session... there's nothing to reset I havent even logged in yet... is that an issue?15:14
Tomhayesthere is only an xfce option15:14
OvenWerksThats wierd, hoow did you install?15:15
Tomhayesfrom USB stick15:15
OvenWerksusing ubuntustudio iso? 18.10 or 18.04?15:15
Tomhayesyeah iso, have tried 18.10 and 18.0415:16
OvenWerksThats odd.15:17
Tomhayesyeah very!15:18
OvenWerksdoes the menu (whisker I think) show Audio/graphis and video production?15:18
Tomhayesas in the xfce menu?15:18
OvenWerksyes15:18
Tomhayesyeah15:18
OvenWerksok, so that much is right15:19
Tomhayesthere's not some sort of graphics card requirement for the desktop environment that would not be showing bwecause the drivers are missing or somethign is there?15:19
Tomhayesthat would stop it displaying...15:19
TomhayesI'm just spitballing here I really have no clue haha15:20
OvenWerksin a terminal ls /usr/share/xsessions/ should show two files15:21
OvenWerksone for ubuntustudio and the other for xfce15:21
Tomhayesno I just have xfce.desktop15:22
OvenWerksthat sounds like an incomplete install then15:23
Tomhayeshmm ok thanks15:23
OvenWerkshow did you put the iso on the usb stick?15:23
OvenWerksdid you check the iso check sum?15:24
TomhayesI used etcher15:24
OvenWerksI don't know etcher at all so I can't comment. I use dd15:25
Tomhayeshavent checked the checksum... I will do15:25
Tomhayeswill try with dd then :)15:25
OvenWerkszsync will check the check sum and only redownload parts of thge iso that don't match15:28
Tomhayesah right, thanks I'll look into that15:29
Tomhayeschecksums matched up so I used DD to make the USB and just installing now... fingers crossed!17:53
Tomhayesstil only have xfce as an option... wtf17:57
Tomhayesthis is weird17:57
