[00:00] hello. please help. i am using ubuntu 18.04.02. and changed to lxde. how to get lxde ram to 200mb+? now i got 540mb at the start up. [00:01] several days ago, my ram used is around 300mb at starup, but now its 540mb+ [00:04] maybe some update mechanism is running.. [00:05] i hope you installed more than 512 mb [00:05] OerHeks: how to make it lean again? [00:06] several days ago, i had around 260-300+ and its awesome. since my ram is only 2gb. [00:15] hello [00:17] apt cache show . works in ubuntu 16.04 but not under ubuntu 18.10 how could i know all the packages , I would like to see this structure like 16.04 Package: accountsservice Version: 0.6.45-1ubuntu1 Priority: standard Section: gnome Origin: Ubuntu [00:21] that changed to apt show i guess [00:21] but how could i show all the packages [00:23] apt list [00:23] or apt list --installed [00:24] https://itsfoss.com/list-installed-packages-ubuntu/ [00:26] also https://itsfoss.com/apt-vs-apt-get-difference/ [00:29] is there one output similar apt cache show . in ubuntu 18.10 [01:08] confused about spotify via snap. in trying to fix multimedia keys, I've tried to remove and reinstall it. I've done a sudo snap remove spotify, and it says it is removed, but I can still run spotify from the command line successfully and I still see a spotify directory in my ~/snap directory. How can I remove it properly? [01:10] ah, spotify-client is also installed via apt. what a mess [01:14] This might not be the best place to ask, but I got a new monitor that uses Display Port, and I'm having issues with it waking up when booting. I've read that I might need to patch my nvidia card's UEFI, but I'm not certain if I really need to. Can anyone help? [01:14] I currently have a GTX 970 on Ubuntu 18.04. [01:18] hi all I would like to ask if for the moment and more powerful ubuntu 16.04 or 18.04? [01:49] Ubuntu 18.04 How to have different wallpaper on each workspace I am currently working with 2 workspaces when I change either the other one changes also [01:53] texla: sudo apt install compiz-plugins compizconfig-settings-manager [01:54] Actually texla you can do it simpler [01:54] In 18 you just go to the workspace you want, right click -> Desktop Settings -> Select the image you want and -> Unselect Apply to all workspaces === bitch is now known as |||||||||||||||| [01:54] brimonk: Hey === |||||||||||||||| is now known as |||||||||||||||\ [01:55] yvyz: Hey. === |||||||||||||||\ is now known as \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ [01:55] brimonk: What is the default bootable VGA PCI Slot in your UEFI/BIOS/ [01:55] and brimonk are you using HDMI and DP from the same video card? [01:55] yvyz: Um. Probably the one my graphics card is in. [01:56] I'm just using DP. [01:56] Background, I got a new 144hz monitor. I used to use a DVI cable, but it wasn't good enough for the high refresh rate. [01:56] WHy are packages like discordapp.com not available on the ubuntu repositories? [01:56] brimonk: what does the command-> lsb_release -a :: say? [01:56] Replaced the cable and the 144hz happened; however, the display can't wake up from sleep. [01:56] brimonk: what does the command-> lsb_release -a [01:56] They have a .deb on their website for years, but I can't just "apt install discord" .. [01:57] "No LSB modules are available." [01:57] Industrial: not all software gets rolled into the default or available packes. Plus, the discord installation .rpm is downloadable will install automagically through ubuntu's package manager. [01:58] brimonk: lsb_relase -a | nc termbin.com 9999 [01:58] Yes, but why isn't it available by commandline install? Is there any reason for it besides politics? [01:58] technically it's very feasible, right? [01:58] they have a .deb .. just include it ? [01:58] https://termbin.com/efbc [01:59] Industrial: Sure, but if you did a sudo apt-get update, you'd see there IS a discord app in the repo. [01:59] Industrial: the ubuntu team probably did not find the current one from discord official to be stable. and ubuntu will not include things they believe to be unstable. [02:00] brimonk: Hmm. Im running DP and HDMI on that same release. [02:00] brimonk: ubuntu-drivers devices | nc termbin.com 9999 === umwhatsgoingon is now known as Menzador [02:00] Industrial, their official .deb is great, if you like it crashing when trying to do simple things like change your avatar. Which is probably why the ubuntu team doesn't include it by default. [02:01] https://termbin.com/u3f1 [02:01] fleabeard, yvyz; I see. THat's a perfectly fine reason :-) [02:01] brimonk: what does ubuntu-drivers autoinstall do? [02:02] Industrial: welcome to linux. Where everyones running their own races and nobody cares about eachother. [02:02] yvyz: I'll test it after my game of csgo. [02:02] Except for linus... i think we'd all fall apart of it wasn't for that guy. [02:03] I mostly dont like the downstream-patches-your-stuff things :( wish it would get fixed upstream and distributed across all platforms [02:04] Industrial: a core distrib like debian is less worried about your favorite team chat software and more interested in verifying there kernel selection plays well with their idea what a distro should include. [02:05] Industrial: and further linux, itself, doesn't give a d**n, period. full stop. === \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ is now known as bitch [02:27] Does ubuntu block incoming connections by default? [02:27] has anyone ever encountered a "guioption: s" string suddenly appears in the clilpboard? [02:28] h3lpm3, basicly no, as there are no rules set for UFW, install Gufw and turn it on [02:29] h3lpm3: no, for good reason. the firewall needs to be configured to be effective, and it might prevent initial access to do such setup. [02:38] is `apt purge` the same as `apt remove --purge`? [02:46] hi all, is 5.6 available on ubuntu 18.04? even through unofficial sources [02:48] mysql-client-5.6 ** [03:03] leonardus: yes. [03:04] graudre: Is there a reason, by chance, you want to one minor version version back from current? [03:05] graudre: but to answer you question, yes, you can probably find the :ppa for it, or download and install it directly from the mysql team. [03:05] graudre: no reason you couldn't. [03:09] yvyz: just so we can get on bionic without making code changes. 5.6 and 5.7 are imcompatible afaict [03:10] ok [03:12] there is no logical reason for 5.6, you will need to build it against systemD https://packages.ubuntu.com/source/trusty/mysql-5.6 [03:13] graudre: I think you can use mysql-apt-config to select the version you want [03:13] Or what OerHeks, he knows more on this one. [03:14] oh dang, yeah I guess that makes sense... [03:15] If I had a problem with the update of gnome-shell that came down the pike to 18.10 today, should I talk about that here or with the gnome-shell people [03:16] yeah mysql-apt-config doesn't have 5.6 available [03:16] eSoul: Here is OK, depending on what the issue is. Whats going on? [03:16] 5.4 i guess, trusty? [03:16] 5.7 and 8.0. I'm on bionic [03:16] hi eSoul, if it concerns ubuntu [03:17] The update to gnome-shell today (maybe a couple days ago) broke the gnome-shell-extension-multi-monitors plugin (also available in apt) [03:18] It looks like a CONST that was defined in the previous version of gnome-shell was not present in the update today. [03:19] Trying to go into my bash_history to see what I had to end up changing [03:22] WorkspaceThumbnail.OVERRIDE_SCHEMA was not defined in gnome-shell after the update [03:24] But I was able to find in another file online that in js/ui/workspacesView.js it should be set to 'org.gnome.shell.overrides' [03:25] Sorry for the spam though [03:30] yvyz: I did a "sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall" and it didn't install anything. === rymate1234 is now known as rymate1234_ [04:38] im getting tired of ubuntu againj thinking about rm -rf / ing again [04:39] coolchris: please dont paste commands here like that [04:39] i didn't paste it i typed it [04:39] dumb ass [04:39] sorry im in a bad mood [04:40] yea some stupid noob might type it sorry i won't do it agian [04:41] i reallly do it though when i get upset sometimes [04:41] thne i have to fix [04:42] this is boring no one is talking i said sorry [04:42] coolchris: this channel is about ubuntu support, other chat belong elsewhere [04:42] ok [04:42] !ot | coolchris for example [04:42] coolchris for example: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please register with NickServ (see /msg ubottu !register) and use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [04:42] ok [04:52] can you change the depth of an open window via the command line? [04:52] i want to keep a certain window always on the top [05:16] grkblood13: you may want to ask this on a gnome (assuning this is what you're using) specific channel. it might be too specific for people around here to know. === BrianG61UK_ is now known as BrianG61UK === [1]MrMobius is now known as MrMobius [06:53] Great! Ace Stream Player for "superpomoyka torrent tv" works even faster than on Win [07:20] WHY (oh why) (x)Ubuntu won't BOOT if there is no device , that is stated inside /etc/fstab ?????? [07:22] grkblood13: you can try wmctrl [07:22] I use ZFS VOLUME (zfs pool on one SATA drive) to mount it as BTRFS block device . And if SATA drive/ZFS pool is physically not there (zfs volume block device is not there), then whole SYSTEM WON'T BOOT [07:23] When I remove/ # line for mounting that Btrfs block device from /etc/fstab, systme boots just fine [07:23] So it's not about removing device or block device. It is about Ubuntu WON't BOOT if there is no block device for BTRFS in /etc/fstab! [07:23] nikolam: add 'nofail' to the mount options === rymate1234_ is now known as rymate1234 [07:24] ducasse, yes, why would system FAIL by default if there is no some block device/file system... But thanks ducasse [07:26] It is by default wrong. Why not booting the system and halting is if ONE of the devices in /etc/fstab won't boot ??? [07:26] And that device does NOT affect boot process...??? [07:29] Enough stupid is that I needed to add "defgraded" to mount 2 RAID1 BTRFS devices, so that system won't fail to boot if one of the devices is not available (Then WHY I use RAID1, if it won't boot by default, if other device is not available???) [07:30] Everything is created so it ,nicely, fails to boot for whatever reason, if not specially explainted, manually in /etc/fstab. Whant's this, 1995? [07:31] Maybe I am spioled by ZFS that does not matter where drives are connected and IF they are connected, by DEFAULT it works... (and WITHOUT Linux config files...) [07:32] Thank Linus, that if swap device is not there it can still boot... [07:37] Does the Clementine music player tray icon not restore the window for anyone else? This doesn't seem right. I don't remember this happening on other distros. I'm using Xubuntu. [07:52] hello, does one of the following patches require restart? https://pastebin.com/HSFTBS5J [07:53] hello [07:53] ? [07:54] i was wondering, with the fdisk command i am able to partition mounted hard drives, does this work for parted aswell? [07:54] i cant find anything on the internet about it === kallesbar_ is now known as kallesbar [07:58] Rembo: why don't you just install them, then you'll know [07:58] it's not like this would stop anything from working [08:00] lawnmowerman: i don't see why not. is it a good idea to do so? probably not, unless you know exactly what the risks are / what this means. === rymate1234 is now known as rymate1234_ [08:01] i want to try and expand my rootdrive, it gives me alot of errors === rymate1234_ is now known as rymate1234 [08:02] the machine needs to be powered on, dont worry it is a test machine [08:02] lawnmowerman: using the term "rootdrive" makes me think you should really do it from a live system only. [08:02] after you created backups. === rymate1234 is now known as rymate1234_ [08:03] allright [08:03] i can do it with fdisk however not with parted [08:03] oh to specify, i am using an lvm filesystem === rymate1234_ is now known as rymate1234 [08:04] i consider myself to be somewhat xperienced with linux / ubuntu (use it for some years), and would (almost) never edit th epartition table of a running system. === rymate1234 is now known as rymate1234_ [08:06] lvm is not a file system, there is no "root" disk [08:06] oh, yes i know the dangers but this is a very specific thing i want to do [08:06] +1 on what tomreyn says, especially if it involves the root fs [08:06] allright, sorry. i want to expand sda which contains my os in a lvm [08:07] lawnmowerman: why can't you do it from a live system? [08:07] lawnmowerman, well, try to use gparted I just expanded partition on working BTRFS mirror the other day with gparted and then expanded it with BTRFS command, while system were running [08:08] thanks nikolan i'll look into it [08:08] i want to keep my system running, just for the challenge [08:08] i meant to ask: why can't you do it from a install/live iso [08:08] tomreyn ^ [08:08] i see [08:08] well, good luck! [08:08] but ill look into gparted thanks for help [08:09] have a good day people === rymate1234_ is now known as rymate1234 [08:09] I needed to do that on both devices in RAID1 on Btrfs, to make it use more space, after partitiones are enlarged [08:09] Hello, I am using Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, and yesterday from GUI, I set to suspend computer after 30 min on battery. But now there is no wireless. [08:10] I have tried several times to restart network-manager, but it does not connect to any wifi. [08:10] Although it shows all the SSIDs, do you know what should I do? [08:10] mojtaba, set "Automatically connect when this network is available" under wireless connection settings [08:10] you get them from "edit connections" [08:11] mojtaba: are you saying you think that "I set to suspend computer after 30 min on battery" and "now there is no wireless" are related? [08:11] nikolam: It has been set already. [08:11] also "All users may connect to this network" if it is needed for any user to be able to be on that wireless without every user logging in and setting wireless password for him, and yes, to stay online [08:11] tomreyn: I think so, because I did not used that feature before, and I did not have any problem with wifi before. [08:12] nikolam: That one is not selected. [08:12] mojtaba: so did your computer suspend before you used it today? [08:12] tomreyn: It seems no! I was turned off. [08:13] I left it playing something on battery. [08:13] mojtaba: if you type "uptime" on a terminal, it will tell you when it last rebooted [08:13] tomreyn: 11:43:27 up 22 min, 1 user, load average: 0.31, 0.51, 0.72 [08:14] Put it in Suspend afte "All users" setting, and test if it worked. Also please update to at least 18.04 LTS to be supported in the future ;P [08:14] any other idea before that? [08:14] nikolam: ubuntu 16.04 is supported for another 2 years. [08:15] tomreyn, gread to know. My thinking is, 18.04 is newer and having similar requirements, maybe jumping to newer LTS is a good idea. [08:15] great. [08:16] i agree it can be. [08:16] * nikolam rebooting [08:17] mojtaba: can you run this in a terminal and post the url it returns? nmcli c 2>&1 | nc termbin.com 9999 [08:18] mojtaba: can you run this in a terminal and post the url it returns? nmcli c 2>&1 | nc termbin.com 9999 [08:19] mojtaba: it also seems like your computers' system time may be wrong, unless you're in a time zone which differs from UTC by partial hours. [08:22] iran (UTC+3.5) matches [08:23] right, i just noticed the ip address points to iran [08:37] Hello [08:38] tomreyn: I found that it is a bug, but I can not find the solution. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1286552 [08:38] Launchpad bug 1380480 in linux (Ubuntu) "duplicate for #1286552 network disabled after suspend - resume" [Undecided,Confirmed] [08:38] hi i book my computer and it will not send a video signal to the monitors suddenly from this morning.

[08:40] it suddenly booted [08:43] gebbione: by "it suddenly booted", do you mean that it works properly now and you're no longer looking for assistence with this? [08:44] i would still like to dig what is happening in those booting sessions if possible [08:44] but i am not sure where and what I am looking for [08:46] gebbione: me neither. you could start by having a look at the warnings logged during your latest boots.

[09:02] mine now is around 540mb ram usage at start === [1]MrMobius is now known as MrMobius [09:05] first i install ubuntu with gnome. since i only had 2gb ram. back then seniors told me to try lxde. then i tried lxde .. its awesome fast. .. several days ago, my ram still started at 260-360mb. but just this morning it started at 580mb ;[ [09:06] Rip i [09:06] Rip u [09:06] Rip everyone [09:09] adikwok: perhaps you can have more information with the LXtask [09:10] @adikwok if you really need a DE that's more lightweight than even lxde, you should try openbox, i3wm and the like [09:10] i tried openbox, it still lxde faster [09:10] Ool: i look at lxtask? [09:11] use slackware [09:11] for your toaster [09:12] adikwok: lxtask is an app, you can monitor ressources in LXDE [09:13] Ool: ok i try [09:14] also: sudo systemd-analyze blame ; sudo systemd-analyze critical-chain [09:14] its written firefox, thunderbird, which i am using now [09:15] how to make the lxde, start with most lean apps? [09:15] firefox can take a lot of ressources :) [09:15] thunderbird too, depend of usages [09:16] presumably your system isn't starting with those applications running [09:16] unless you have told it to do so [09:16] Ool: it is ok for those, ff, tb, libreoffice since i am using those apps for work. [09:16] yet i could not make the lxde use only 300mb or so at starting up [09:17] adikwok: how did you now about 300 Mb ? (which command or app ? ) [09:17] rpgio: this what im looking for, how to choose what app to be run at starting up, so it doesnt stay at the memory at starting up? [09:17] Ool: free -ltmh [09:19] so you can't know if it's lxde or an other process [09:19] how much ram do you have adikwok [09:19] rpgio: 2gb [09:19] perhaps you should download some more [09:20] top, ps auxf or the lxtask app can tell more [09:20] rpgio: download ram?

I've tried export OpenCV_DIR=/usr/local/share/OpenCV/ but it doesn't work [10:18] SleepyTurtle: cmake is a utility for building software, not for installing any. for questions about developing ubuntu software, you can join #ubuntu-app-devel - or join your favourite programming / scripting languages' channel. [10:18] tomreyn: I'm asking about exporting [10:19] which is ubuntu related, isn't it? [10:19] yes owned by organization. tomreyn [10:20] nanoz: and this organization doesn't provide OS support? [10:20] tomreyn: I'll check out #ubuntu-app-devel anyway, thanks [10:20] no tomreyn [10:20] nanoz: i doubt this. after all this sounds like a managed system. [10:21] SleepyTurtle: sure, ubuntu development is ubuntu related, but this channel we use just for ubuntu (user) support. [10:22] exporting environment variables can be done using the "export" command [10:22] on a shell [10:23] tomreyn: I did that and can see the variable in printenv, but it doesn't seem to work with cmake [10:23] !password | nanoz [10:23] nanoz: Forgot your password?

[10:26] I keep getting random artifacting and I want to see if I can track anything down [10:26] yes [10:26] i'm using https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword this , option 2 , on moving to bash shell getting the username doesnot exist [10:26] something like cat /dev/fb0 > file.bmp? [10:26] but was loggin till yesterday with same username [10:27] even last command shows it [10:27] https://github.com/mdoege/AmigaShell [10:27] check the screenshot it has the command [10:27] or https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/slackware-14/how-to-take-a-screenshot-with-dev-fb0-918705/ [10:27] or https://www.cnx-software.com/2010/07/18/how-to-do-a-framebuffer-screenshot/ [10:28] looks like the last one is my best bet [10:28] the user is not root user - as you know [10:29] nanoz: in an organization, your user account may be stored ina a networked authentication database, which may not be available during early boot. [10:29] nanoz: talk to your admins. [10:33] btw i'm unable to access /home/username of the respective users folder [10:34] nanoz: talk to your admins. [10:41] Hi, my bluetooth fails to connect to my earphone when I disconnect my earphones. I had to restart for them to get connected again. I already have paired and trusted my earphones. What could be going wrong ? [10:42] It also recognises my earphone as "headphone" and provides the "audio sink" option [10:57] Hi, my bluetooth fails to connect to my earphone when I disconnect my earphones. I had to restart for them to get connected again. I already have paired and trusted my earphones. What could be going wrong ? === LaRose_Bleu is now known as LaRose_Rouge [11:02] ramsub07: it's not easy to make a good guess onj what may be breaking there without more context. have you had a look at your logs, yet? [11:04] tomreyn: sure, but how do i check logs? [11:05] ramsub07: what's the output of "lsb_release -ds", run in a terminal? [11:06] 16.04 [11:06] no [11:06] to be more accurate, Ubuntu 16.04.5 LTS [11:06] install the pending updates, reboot, see if it still happens. === LaRose_Rouge is now known as LaRose_Bleu [11:10] tomreyn: sudo apt-get update ? === LaRose_Bleu is now known as LaRose_Rouge [11:26] ramsub07: sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade [11:26] or use the GUI approach which should do the same [11:27] Howdy all [11:27] ramsub07: "lsb_release -ds" should report a higher version number in the end. [11:28] good morning [11:29] how to install drivers dwa 171 revision c1 ? [11:29] not function [11:29] lavinho: post URL from terminal for> lsusb | nc termbin.com 9999 [11:30] https://termbin.com/r1yf [11:31] lavinho: any results for> lsmod | grep 8188 [11:32] r8188eu 425984 0 [11:32] cfg80211 614400 1 r8188eu [11:32] hi, i have a question, apologies if its not part of the group but i would like to know the different between wine and winehq builds. i hae both installed and i dunno if i need both or can keep one and remove the other to sae space coz they arent exactly small packages thjemseslves [11:32] its dongle using insternet [11:32] lavinho URL for> rfkill list | nc termbin.com 9999 [11:33] no results [11:33] Hi guys, my laptop's USB ports have stopped working all of a sudden and it keeps repeating frequently. How do I debug if it's an OS error or an hardware issue? [11:34] ramsub07: Maybe this is connected to your bluetooth issues [11:34] jeremy31: even i suspect so [11:35] I did a sudo /etc/init.d/bluetooth restart and my bluetooth says "no adapters found" and USB has stopped working [11:35] I checked the power from the port and it says 0W [11:36] LaRose_Rouge: winehq is someone elses' (upstream?) wine build, i think, it's not a package in ubuntu. "wine" in ubuntu is a virtual package depending on wine-stable|wine-development (at least in ubuntu 18.04) [11:37] lavinho: run the commands at https://gist.github.com/jeremyb31/a8ca23e67a11dc7599e7ffb0a9667d65 and reboot [11:38] oh, so if i have winehq installed i dont need ubuntu wine? tomreyn [11:38] !wine | LaRose_Rouge i think this will tell [11:38] LaRose_Rouge i think this will tell: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help - See !virtualizers for running Windows (or another OS) inside Ubuntu [11:40] thanks tomreyn ill check the cahnnel out [11:41] dongle listed is dongle used to the internet connection [11:41] no dwa 171 [11:45] help me please [11:45] dwa 171 revisonn c1 [12:11] What is the best way to move/copy users home folders to a new server? Accounts already exist on new server with same UIDs [12:12] also same GID? [12:12] yes [12:12] probably rsync then [12:13] as root? [12:14] unless oyu can find a different way to access multiple users' data and persist ownership on the target. [12:15] so sudo works, too [12:16] I tried that another time and it didn't work. Ended up having to write a script to change perms [12:16] or you could tar as root, copy as restricted user, untar as root. but that's not winning you much [12:18] Any owners of Gopros here? I'm unable to mount the camera in Linux (Kubuntu). The logs show "unhandled action 'bind'" issues. [12:18] https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/zPymVNMmym/ [12:21] Captain_Haddock: unplug other usb devices, try adifferent usb port at the opposite side of your computer (if any), try a different cable. [12:26] I'm using the Ubuntu 18.04.2 live server installer, and under manual partition options, I cannot find a way to create a FAT32 partition. It's required for creating a EFI system partition [12:26] Hi, I had messaged here regarding my bluetooth issue and the issue has "spread" to my USB port as well. I tried restarting and everything worked fine for half an hour or so, then the same problem resurfaced [12:26] Is there some other way to create that? Maybe drop in to a terminal temporarily? [12:27] Gekko: you just boot in uefi mode and choose the disk you want to have the esp on, and choose to make it bootable [12:27] When the error occurs, i can see the bluetooth unable to find an adapter and then USB ports have no power [12:27] How should i debug whether it is a software or a hardware issue? [12:27] This is a SOC device and I nede to have specific sizes, including an EFI partition of exact size [12:28] Gekko: use alternative server installer, optionally partition in advance [12:28] righto [12:28] I actually tried using a clonezilla live image to partition manually, but the ubuntu installer didn't list the partitions, only listed the disk === yiko is now known as yikoru [12:30] Gekko: the default ubuntu server installer is unable to install to existing partition structures. [12:31] Ah [12:31] Well I'm getting the alt one [12:31] tomreyn: It's happening on all ports :( [12:32] (I can access the GoPro on my Windows laptop just fine. And other cameras work fine on the Kubuntu desktop as well.)( [12:33] Captain_Haddock: please post the output of this command to a pastebin: cat /proc/version /proc/cmdline /etc/os-release [12:33] Captain_Haddock, tomreyn is ExFAT built in to linux os yet? [12:34] Maybe need to install exfat-fuse and exfat-utils? [12:34] probably [12:34] Hello there! Is there some kind of PPA that updates Evolution (only) to anything newer than 3.18? [12:35] hi tomreyn [12:35] !ppa | stdedos this hint contains the address of a ppa search: [12:35] stdedos this hint contains the address of a ppa search:: A Personal Package Archive (PPA) can provide alternate software not normally available in the offical Ubuntu repositories - Looking for a PPA?

See also !addppa and !ppa-purge [12:36] hi ramsub07 [12:37] tomreyn: my USB ports don't work anymore, and lsusb shows just two devices as the available ones [12:37] do you know what could be going wrong? [12:37] * tomreyn looks around for a crystasl ball, but finds none [12:37] no [12:38] tomreyn: how do I figure out if it's a hardware error or something to do with drivers/OS ? [12:38] ramsub07: logs [12:38] tomreyn: where do i check the logs specific to USB? [12:39] tomreyn thank you. I don't mean to be picky, but, is there some "additional" filtering options and/or sorting per build age for PPAs? "evolution" gives 172 results, "evolution 3.[12]\d" gives one result that doesn't even have the "evolution" package [12:39]
