[01:05] <rud0lf> can i reboot xubuntu (logged in into gui) by terminal's "sudo reboot"?
[01:05] <rud0lf> or is it discouraged?
[01:18] <well_laid_lawn> rud0lf:  I do that sometimes with ni issues
[01:18] <well_laid_lawn> s/ni/no/
[01:19] <rud0lf> thanks
[01:31] <twinsenaxe> sometimes i "sudo reboot" or "sudo init 6" when chrome crash or freeze., i can ignore any loss of session data because i deal with trivial things with my xubuntu desktop... i think it (couraged or discouraged) depends on how much precious your data is...
[01:32] <twinsenaxe> i'm reading https://www.fosslinux.com/1115/how-to-reboot-shutdown-log-off-pc-from-terminal-by-command-line-in-ubuntu-and-linux-mint.htm
[01:33] <twinsenaxe> reboot --help
[01:33] <twinsenaxe> init 6 --help
[09:02] <gnrp> rud0lf: It is fine. It is not much different from shutting down your system with the shutdown button in the gui, simply everything getting killed
[09:02] <rud0lf> btw
[09:03] <rud0lf> (on the other topic, actually) i've made some (a lot) changes to os
[09:03] <rud0lf> and now upon login i have this window "ubuntu encountered a problem" (report/don't send)
[09:03] <rud0lf> i'm translating off my head because it's localised to polish
[09:03] <rud0lf> how can i track it?
[09:04] <rud0lf> being pedantic, i'd like my login clean :)
[13:00] <bodiccea> instead of simply reboot, I use the REISUB magic keys... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key and https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/admin-guide/sysrq.html
[15:15] <xubuntu24w> how do I force gui file browsing as root and no I don't care why devs believe I should not.
[15:16] <xubuntu24w> None of the posted solutions elsewhere work
[15:16] <xubuntu24w> I'll settle for being able to login as root. Not a risk as I'm the sole user.
[15:38] <bodiccea> xubuntu24w, what do you need exactly ? Enable root login, or having a file manager run as root ?
[15:39] <diogenes_> gone
[15:40] <bodiccea> where do all these xubuntuXXw come from ? A specific IRC application ?
[15:41] <diogenes_> supposedly assigned by the ircbot, no clue.
[15:48] <brainwash> bodiccea: http://xubuntu.org/irc/
[15:49] <bodiccea> ah ok...
[19:58] <mok0> Hmm, seems my WiFi broke with the 5.0.0-15-generic update... I need to boot into 5.0.0-13-generic to get it to work. Anyone else heard about this?
[20:06] <Bashing-om> mok0: Proprietary drivers often break in a kerenel upgrade. What driver did you have amd how did you install it ?
[21:50] <mok0> Bashing-om: I am using rtl8812au-dkms it is open source.
[21:53] <mok0> I honestly can't remember if I did anything to activate it
[22:03] <Bashing-om> mok0: WIFI is not something I have a lot of experience with, but is the driver loaded ? what shows ' sudo lshw -C network ' ?
