krytarikjaggiJ: https://askubuntu.com/questions/267514/open-containing-folder-in-firefox-does-not-use-my-default-file-manager , https://askubuntu.com/questions/131695/firefoxs-open-folder-opens-gwenview - the range of advice in these two threads should help you, and I'd start with looking at your '~/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list'08:12
jaggiJfixed: i went to file assotioations, inode-> directory  , default was my packman file manager but i did reset and set it again. It worked.08:27

apt-ghettoThe X Window system does not recognise the resolution of your screen09:35
apt-ghettoMaybe it is only a configuration issue09:36
diogenes_mekschr, what is the expected resolution?09:36
apt-ghettoHave a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Monitor_or_Screens#Screen_resolution_is_wrong.2C_no_matter_what_I_do09:36
apt-ghettoYou should create the file "/etc/X11/xorg.conf"09:37
apt-ghettoand reboot09:37
apt-ghettoset the right resolution in line `Modes     "1366x768"`09:38

diogenes_quickly*10:31
lubot<mekschr> ok10:33
diogenes_meksch, ok so your desired resolution is 1366x76810:34
diogenes_right?10:34
lubot<mekschr> yes10:34
diogenes_run: cvt 1366 768 | nc termbin.com 999910:34
diogenes_share the link10:34
lubot<mekschr> termbin.com/8kru10:36
diogenes_run: xrandr | grep " connected " | awk '{ print$1 }'10:36
diogenes_and just paste the output here10:36
diogenes_in the chat10:36
lubot<mekschr> DVI-010:38
diogenes_run: xrandr --newmode "1368x768_60.00"   85.25  1368 1440 1576 1784  768 771 781 798 -hsync +vsync10:39
diogenes_and just tell me when done10:39
diogenes_meksch, sorry got disconnected10:41
diogenes_so did you run the command?10:41
lubot<mekschr> done10:41
diogenes_now run: xrandr --addmode DVI-0 1368x768_60.0010:41
diogenes_tell me when done10:41
lubot<mekschr> but this is 1368x768 not 1366x76810:42
diogenes_oh wait10:42
diogenes_so your is 1366?10:42
lubot<mekschr> i typed cvt 1366 76810:43
lubot<mekschr> it returned 1368x76810:43
diogenes_ok10:43
diogenes_let's try this one10:43
diogenes_did you run:  xrandr --addmode DVI-0 1368x768_60.0010:43
lubot<mekschr> anyways done10:43
lubot<mekschr> yes10:43
diogenes_ok now run: xrandr --output DVI-0 --mode 1368x768_60.0010:43
diogenes_and it should change the res10:43
lubot<mekschr> done10:44
diogenes_has it made any effect?10:45
lubot<mekschr> yes the resolution is now different10:45
diogenes_so is it a good res?10:45
lubot<mekschr> kind of10:46
lubot<mekschr> there is a thin vertical black line at the right10:46
diogenes_so if you want this resolution then you need to make a starup sript with the following commands:10:47
diogenes_xrandr --newmode "1368x768_60.00"   85.25  1368 1440 1576 1784  768 771 781 798 -hsync +vsync10:47
diogenes_xrandr --addmode DVI-0 1368x768_60.0010:47
diogenes_xrandr --output DVI-0 --mode 1368x768_60.0010:47
diogenes_and it will adjust it right after the system strarts10:47
lubot<mekschr> how to do that10:47
diogenes_ok i will guide you through10:47
diogenes_run: touch ~/Documents/resolution-script10:48
diogenes_tell me when done10:49
lubot<mekschr> done10:50
diogenes_now run: pluma (or what is the lubuntu text editor name)  ~/Documents/resolution-script10:50
diogenes_it will open a blank document10:51
lubot<mekschr> emm i m using linux mint xfce right now10:51
diogenes_then it should be: xed ~/Documents/resolution-script10:52
diogenes_and it will open that document10:52
lubot<mekschr> done10:53
diogenes_in that document write the following:10:53
diogenes_#!/bin/bash10:53
diogenes_xrandr --newmode "1368x768_60.00"   85.25  1368 1440 1576 1784  768 771 781 798 -hsync +vsync10:53
diogenes_xrandr --addmode DVI-0 1368x768_60.0010:53

lubot<mekschr> should i reset what ghetto told me at first ?11:21
lubot<aptghetto> You can delete the created file11:35
lubot<mekschr> yeah but now the system runs 1368x768 after logging in, what about the loading screen and login screen11:40
lubot<mekschr> by the way i discovered something that may be related to the problem11:42
lubot<mekschr> i tried a script called get-edid, and it said that it can't find an accessible edid11:53
apt-ghettoeither the script does not have the executable flag or it is not in a directory listed in $PATH12:03

ubottuUbuntu 17.04 (Zesty Zapus) was the 26th release of Ubuntu. Support ended on January 13th, 2018. See !eol and https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-announce/2018-January/000228.html19:20

wxlthere was a no change rebuild in bionic+ that could have had some impact19:24
wxlthere's no version of 2.1.4 before that in a supported release19:25
wxland hold on19:28
wxlthere's a fundamental misudnerstanding19:28
wxlthat is NOT a modulo key19:28
wxlsee the tooltip. it's for calculating a percent19:28
wxlthere's no modulo function19:28
wxlwell, not in the default mode19:29
wxlscientific mode has a MOD key19:29
wxlor wait, maybe I"M misunderstanding19:29
wxlso if i 5 ENT 2 +, 5 is added then removed from the stack, with the 7 remaining19:30
wxlif i 10 ENT 5 %, same behavior with the 10, except the 0.5 is remaining (this is Y technically)19:31
wxlif they want to put that into the stack (X), then x<>y will do it19:32
wxli will waste no more time on this19:33
wxlespecially given it's from 2017 sheesh19:33
wxlapt-ghetto is trolling me apparently XD19:33
lubot<aptghetto> What? It‘s surely the fault of tsimonq219:34
wxli'd love to blame him but this is all you XD19:34
