xubuntu80whello, I have a problem, I have installed the updates after installing the system and when rebooting some stripes appear on the screen, how can I fix it?13:31
diogenes_xubuntu80w, but it boots ok?13:37
xubuntu80wstart up, start up, but when it reaches the login screen the stripes appear13:41
Spass[m]hello xubuntu80w, what graphics card do you have? and if you know, what drivers?13:43
xubuntu80wMy graphic card is a Nvidia Geforce2 MX/MX 400, and I have not installed drivers since the system was newly installed13:45
xubuntu80wwhen I had finished installing, it had started well, I installed some updates and when I restarted they appeared13:47
tomreynmaybe those updates switched you from nouveau to nvidia drivers. did you reboot after upgrading?13:48
Spass[m]hmm, so you should be on Nouveau, strange that it doesn't work, only possible solution that comes to my mind is trying to install proprietary driver, but that's a solution you may not want13:48
xubuntu80wfor trying, I lose nothing13:49
Spass[m]I'm searching now what drivers are good for that old card13:50
Spass[m](to be honest Nouveau seems the best)13:51
xubuntu80wand how can I reinstall or install it13:52
Spass[m]you can try with legacy 340 drivers, to install them go to text console (when you see that broken login screen) using Ctrl+Alt+F3, log in to your account, and use this command "sudo apt install nvidia-340"13:55
Spass[m]it should install and configure the driver, so reboot after that "sudo reboot"13:56
Spass[m]and if you see that nvidia-340 is already installed, I would try to remove it13:57
Spass[m]maybe it somehow got installed during the upgrade process and broke your configuration13:57
xubuntu80wis being installed, that means it is not installed13:57
Spass[m]ok, try to reboot now13:58
Spass[m]you may see black screen only, so that would mean those drivers are not good for your card, then you should remove it - Ctrl+Alt+F3, log in, and "sudo apt purge nvidia-340", restart13:59
xubuntu80wperfect, now it works, thank you very much14:00
Spass[m]great14:02
tibykeever since I upgraded from 16.04 to 18.04 LTS I just can't use mcedit with my unprivileged user because it just somehow f*cks up keyboard/mouse input and totally randomly handles them, cant even type, starts saving constantly, or just opens the menu. any idea on that? what can be wrong?14:58
tibykeit keeps randomly pasting parts of *ancient* stuff from my clipboard14:59
tomreyntibyke: i don't run xubuntu 18.04, so can't verify this, but this sounds like memory corruption. if you have a fast system, maybe setup a fresh 18.04.2 installation in a VM and see if it also happens there. and if so, file a bug. if not, then it rather points to something more local to your system, or upgrade related.15:12
tomreynfor a maybe simpler test you can also create a new user account and try as that, thus bypassing your existing users' configurations (in /home/$username/.config and / or /home/$username/.mc)15:13
tibyketomreyn, but it works fine for any other user thats why I suspect something being fishy15:14
tibykeI already checked .config for that user but found nothing strange, but will retry, thanks!15:14
tomreynyou're welcome. check 'demsg', too, maybe there are memory access errors there.15:14
tomreyn* 'dmesg'15:15
tibykenothing in dmesg15:33
tibykeI will add a brand new user15:33
tibykeits all fine with the new user15:35
tibykeI will review .config again15:35
tomreyn:-/ these things are hard to find15:37

PoolShark_hi all.. was there a recent update that broke bluetooth? All of my bluetooth suddenly stopped working22:28
PoolShark_was working fine when I went to bed last night and when I came home from work today, nothing works22:29
PoolShark_won't connect with any of my devices and trying to re-pair gives an authentication timeout22:29
PoolShark_well I tried everything... resetting all the bluetooth devices, powering down/rebooting everything... tested the adapter and devices on my laptop - all work fine.. I just don't understand why all things bluetooth would just stop working23:01
tomreynPoolShark_: we neither, we don't even know which version of xubuntu you're running, or which updates (as listed in /var/log/apt/history.log( were installed exactly.23:06
tomreynPoolShark_: i'll go to bed now, but to find assistence here (or in #ubuntu) be sure to provide such information.23:07
