| bamberbiz | hmm stay with 18.04 or reinstall/upgrade to 18.10, i'm wondering to myself | 16:10 |
|---|---|---|
| NerdTheThird | not that much worth on xubuntu since there were no improvements to DE, and only some upgrades to everything else | 16:12 |
| NerdTheThird | i'd stay if i were you for that sweet LTS | 16:12 |
| xubuntu63i | sup | 17:08 |
| xubuntu63i | my installation of xubuntu 18.04 is running, but it seems to take awfully long | 17:09 |
| xubuntu63i | INIT_GENERIC_CONDITON: unknown 0x07 | 17:09 |
| xubuntu63i | is what it said | 17:09 |
| xubuntu63i | smt smt nouveau disp | 17:09 |
| xubuntu63i | I can't c&p it I think | 17:10 |
| brainwash | looks like something that needs to be googled | 17:10 |
| xubuntu63i | heh | 17:10 |
| xubuntu63i | true | 17:10 |
| xubuntu63i | No luck with google, just some posts with Lenovo laptops | 17:14 |
| xubuntu63i | Im on a desktop pc though | 17:14 |
| xubuntu63i | Idk the isntaller just seems stuck, last output was Started Run anacron jobs... | 17:14 |
| xubuntu63i | Its says its copying installation logs... and the progress bar is full, but it has been like this for the last half hour | 17:15 |
| brainwash | personally, I would try it again after aborting the current installation process | 17:16 |
| brainwash | or you could check the log files directly | 17:17 |
| brainwash | in /var/log/ | 17:17 |
| xubuntu63i | ok ty | 17:17 |
| xubuntu63i | I will try to check them first | 17:17 |
| brainwash | what hardware is that actually? | 17:18 |
| xubuntu63i | there are a bunch of logs here | 17:18 |
| xubuntu63i | Oh, I don't know all of it tbh | 17:18 |
| xubuntu63i | it was running 16.04 fine, I can try to get the details if you're interested | 17:18 |
| brainwash | it's a custom built desktop PC? | 17:19 |
| xubuntu63i | It was from grey computers I believe, they helped me piece it together | 17:19 |
| xubuntu63i | it has seen 7 years though | 17:19 |
| xubuntu63i | so yeah I guess you could call it custom built | 17:19 |
| xubuntu63i | What kind of logs should I look for | 17:20 |
| xubuntu63i | the 'faillog' seems to be empty | 17:20 |
| brainwash | if you have a launchpad account, you could run "ubuntu-bug ubiquity" to create a new bug report | 17:21 |
| xubuntu63i | I don't have that | 17:21 |
| brainwash | this would gather and upload relevant log files automatically | 17:21 |
| xubuntu63i | ok, should I make an account then I guess so | 17:21 |
| brainwash | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingUbiquity | 17:21 |
| brainwash | is /var/log/installer present? | 17:22 |
| xubuntu63i | yes, it contains debug, dm, verstion | 17:22 |
| xubuntu63i | version* | 17:22 |
| brainwash | look through those | 17:23 |
| xubuntu63i | Gtk-CRITICAL and such in debug, GLib-GObject-CRITICAL in dm | 17:25 |
| xubuntu63i | and lots of them | 17:25 |
| xubuntu63i | is this 'critical'? :) | 17:25 |
| brainwash | if they interfere with the installation process, then yes | 17:26 |
| brainwash | so yeah, try to install it again, and see if encounter the same problem | 17:29 |
| xubuntu63i | ok | 17:30 |
| xubuntu63i | can't create launchpad account | 17:30 |
| xubuntu63i | apparently im too stupid | 17:30 |
| xubuntu63i | but the confirmation link just sends me back to register | 17:30 |
| xubuntu63i | whelp, guess I'll restart installation | 17:31 |
| brainwash | =S | 17:31 |
| xubuntu63i | anyway ty | 17:31 |
| xubuntu70w | @brainwash | 17:34 |
| xubuntu70w | it works now I guess | 17:35 |
| xubuntu70w | just restarted and forgot to boot from usb | 17:35 |
| xubuntu70w | then linux started up and no problems so far | 17:35 |
| xubuntu70w | I think the installer just didn't exit somehow but was really finished. | 17:35 |
| lopta | Is there a handy utility for Xubuntu that will display a summary of the computer's hardware (CPU and RAM, mostly)? | 18:57 |
| drleviathan | as a window up in the background? or do you just want to query for that info? (There are some command line tools for that). | 18:59 |
| lopta | drleviathan: Either works. | 19:00 |
| drleviathan | this command to see cpu: cat /proc/cpuinfo | 19:00 |
| drleviathan | this command to see how much ram: free -h | 19:01 |
| drleviathan | this command to see hard drive space: df -h | 19:01 |
| drleviathan | this command to list PCI devices: lspci | 19:02 |
| lopta | Thanks. I forgot that Linux had /proc/cpuinfo | 19:05 |
| bamberbiz | There's neofetch, it gives a commandline summary type thing of hardware etc, but you might need to apt install it | 21:16 |
| knome | or just use inxi, which is shipped by default | 21:17 |
| knome | https://xubuntu.org/news/inxi/ | 21:17 |
| lopta | Thanks bamberbiz | 21:43 |
| bamberbiz | np | 22:02 |
