[00:33] <user__> I'm back.
[00:35] <user__> Ok, so I tried copying some audio files to the desktop from my phone and they don't transfer.
[00:35] <user__> I press "Copy Here" and "Move Here" and no effect.
[00:36] <user__> I even tried to transfer the whole "Camera" folder with all of the pictures on my phone on it to the desktop.
[02:14] <user__> Hello everyone.
[02:14] <user__> Anybody on here right now?
 some of us
 but this isn't always the most fastest time to get support here.
[02:16] <user__> I can
[02:16] <user__> Excuse me, I can't go on the other channels without having to register with /nickserv.
 it's also tricky sometimes to get data to move off Android phones.  Copy should have worked though.
[02:17] <user__> Ok, so earlier I mentioned that installed Lubuntu 19.04 recently, and tried to drag some pictures from my Android phone to the Desktop, when I got the options "Copy Here", "Move Here", and "Insert Symlink Here", I tried all of them but they didn't transfer to the desktop.
[02:18] <user__> I tried older versions of Lubuntu like 16.04.4 and 18.04 and they transferred but when I went to go view them on the desktop, they had an error being viewed.
[02:19] <user__> Trying out Linux Mint and Ubuntu, I transferred the same photos off of my phone to the desktop and they had no problem being viewed or corrupted.
[02:19] <user__> So something's up with Lubuntu and my phone.
[03:31] <Guest84435> VM booted into emergency mode. how to recover from it?
[04:22] <tomreyn> Guest84435: that's the onoly information you have available?
[04:23] <tomreyn> not anything related to lubuntu version, what you did between when it worked and now?, any error message? output of "echo $REASON"?
[04:25] <Guest84435> tomreyn: there is message along emergency mode alert, suggesting 'systemctl reboot' 'journalctl -xxx' something like that
[04:25] <Guest84435> $REASON empty
[04:25] <tomreyn> which lubuntu version?
[04:26] <Guest84435> lastest version
[04:26] <tomreyn> jorunalctl -b    should show what was logged since latest boot
[04:26] <tomreyn> any errors there?
[04:27] <tomreyn> did you make changes which may have caused this?
[04:27] <Guest84435> before emergency message, I was trying to run pycharm and something freezed.
[04:28] <tomreyn> "emergency message"? what did it say?
[04:28] <Guest84435> the log was lost since I was trying to boot from iso
[04:28] <tomreyn> you were running pycharms, then the system reset / rebooted?
[04:30] <tomreyn> which iso were you trying to boot from and why?
[04:30] <Guest84435> it saying 'now in Emergency mode, suggests 'journelctl -xxx' 'systemctl reboot' to recover. I tried but didn't work out.
[04:31] <tomreyn> 'dmesg' would have a lof if journalctl doesn't
[04:31] <tomreyn> *loG
[04:33] <Guest84435> lubuntu iso that is running now I am typing on this running iso.
[04:34] <Guest84435> I were running pycharm, installing some packages, then somehow stalked and freezed. then the emergency message.
[04:36] <Guest84435> tomreyn: dmsg shows info for the current live iso, right?
[16:18] <dabblerdude> Hello everyone. Hello everyone.
[16:18] <dabblerdude> So I have an issue with Lubuntu and my Android phone; I tried to transfer some photos as well as some music from my phone to the desktop, and they wouldn't transfer. On Lubuntu 19.04, when I tried to drag and drop the things to the desktop and had the options "Move Here", "Copy Here" and "Insert Symblink Here",  I tried those options and they had no effect.
[16:18] <dabblerdude> I also tried Lubuntu 18.04 LTS and 16.04x, but this time, they transferred to the desktop and when I tried to click on those items from the desktop, I had errors viewing them.
[16:18] <dabblerdude> They were corrupted and unviewable on the desktop, but not on my phone.
[16:18] <dabblerdude> These problems didn't occur when I used Linux Mint and Ubuntu.
[16:18] <dabblerdude> So they had no issue being transferred and viewed.
[16:37] <dabblerdude> test message.
[16:50] <wxl[m]> dabblerdude: didn't we go over this before? You need to ctrl-drag to copy. Default is a symlink
[16:51] <dabblerdude> wxl[m]: Yeah, we did. But isn't this a bug in Lubuntu or something?
[16:52] <dabblerdude> Otherwise, is there a way I can change the default to something else besides a symlink?
[16:52] <wxl[m]> Not totally, but as I said before, I wouldn't expect much out of the LXDE. Unless it's a huge problem with no workaround and a clear fix..
[16:53] <wxl[m]> Not that I know of
[16:53] <dabblerdude> I see, yeah, it's only with Lubuntu that I get this issue, not Ubuntu or Linux Mint.
[16:54] <dabblerdude> By the way, I got this issue on 19.04 with lxde-qt.
[16:55] <wxl[m]> What the heck is lxde-qt???
[16:55] <dabblerdude> Excuse me, I mena lxqt.
[16:55] <dabblerdude> The desktop environment that 19.04 runs.
[16:55] <dabblerdude> The one that you mentioned that is under heavy development.
[16:56] <wxl[m]> You still have that version running?
[16:59] <dabblerdude> I run 19.04.
[16:59] <dabblerdude> I had another computer to run 19.04 on with a Core 2 Duo at 3Ghz.
[16:59] <dabblerdude> So I was getting that file transfer issue on there too.
[17:00] <dabblerdude> I have 18.04 on the Dell laptop.
[17:01] <wxl[m]> Can you copy any file (not on the phone) to the desktop on the LXQt?
[17:01] <dabblerdude> I tried copying some files from a flash drive on to the desktop and it worked.
[17:02] <dabblerdude> No problems there.
[17:02] <wxl[m]> Curious
[17:03] <wxl[m]> Let me see if I can find an upstream issue related to MTP devices
[17:03] <dabblerdude> It's got to be a bug.
[17:03] <dabblerdude> Or yeah, and upstream issue related to that.
[17:16] <wxl[m]> https://github.com/lxqt/libfm-qt/pull/439
[17:16] <wxl[m]> Literally just got fixed
[17:16] <wxl[m]> Hopefully they release it in time for 19.10. If not, I'll pull the patch in
[17:17] <dabblerdude> That's good.
[17:18] <dabblerdude> So would I have to deal with copying and pasting or ctrl-dragging for now until 19.10 comes out?
 Yup! Unfortunately you will have to use Ctrl+drag. Or if you could contribute and pull in the patch, you can get it before 19.10 arrives.
 ;)
[17:25] <dabblerdude> I cannot contribute to the patch as I'm not that good with source code.
[17:26] <dabblerdude> IRC is so helpful when it comes to tech problems.
[17:26] <dabblerdude> It's not like with a forum online.
[17:54] <dabblerdude> Thanks for your help, wxl.
[17:56] <dabblerdude> See ya later everyone!
[20:27] <kiwi_11> I recently got updates. How long is there eupdates for lubuntu 16.04.6 ?
[20:27] <kiwi_11> *updtaes
[20:28] <kiwi_11> updates
[20:39] <kc2bez> kiwi_11: Lubuntu support for 16.04 has ended. The only thing receiving updates is the Ubuntu base. You should at least upgrade to 18.04
[20:40] <kc2bez> !eol | kiwi_11
[20:42] <kiwi_11> It is strange i got updates recently, it is second time after i installed it the last week. 18.04 was a bit slow for my old notebook. The old style was better.
[20:47] <kc2bez> The Ubuntu base is still under community support. If you issue a `ubuntu-support-status` in the terminal it will let you know the number of packages still supported.
[21:21] <kiwi_11> I sounds strange to me. It is EOL but there is a community support ? I have nevr heard about that. Not suport anymore but still supportet..
[21:32] <tomreyn> it's falling back to a lower support level basically, the lowest there is
[21:33] <tomreyn> effectively bugs may not get fixed and even security fixes will not be provided most of the time.
[21:33] <tomreyn> kiwi_11: ^
[21:37] <user760_> Hello, is there a convenient way (involving a GUI) to change your username on Lubuntu? I found out that through the "Users & Groups" that you can't change the name of the username you are logged in under.
[21:41] <tomreyn> if you'd like to do it graphically, you'd probably need to create a new administrative user, then log in as that, then rename the other user. but i'm not actually sure whether renaming existing users is possible then. doing so has some caveats. epcifically, many configuration files you have in  ~/.config/ will have full paths to applications or other configuration in them. and those configuration files would still point to the old usernames'
[21:41] <tomreyn> directory if the user account was renamed - and thus break.
[21:42] <tomreyn> user760_: ^
[21:42] <user760_> The reason I ask is is because, I'm selling some computers with Lubuntu and I want the customer who buys it to be able to change their username easily, as they wouldn't want to be stuck with the name "user".
[21:53] <tomreyn> user760_: you want an oem installation then
[21:55] <tomreyn> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Ubuntu_OEM_Installer_Overview
[21:56] <user760_> Is there a way I can do that for Lubuntu?
[21:56] <user760_> Use a Lubuntu OEM installation?
[21:57] <user760_> Because the computers that I'm trying to put them on have 4GB of RAM on 2 of the PCs.
[21:57] <user760_> And one with 2GB.
[21:57] <tomreyn> https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2407265 suggests it works with Lubuntu 18.04 LTS
[22:03] <user760_> So I press F4 upon startup to install in OEM mode?
[22:03] <tomreyn> you could give it a try
 how to set taskbar for only displaying the apps listed on the desktop... my current setting will list all opened apps all from the desktop ... where is the configuration?
[22:04] <user760_> Ok, thanks.
[22:04] <user760_> I should've considered an OEM install in the first place.
[22:04] <user760_> I went through the hassle of installing things for the customer that it took up a lot of my time.
[22:06] <tomreyn> so you'll save a lot of time now, great!
[22:06] <kc2bez> @ctisme Which version of Lubuntu?
 19.04... i solved from taskmanager setting, thanks for the response @kc
[22:09] <kc2bez> No problem. Glad you figured it out.
 suitable for many tabs apps opened
[22:09] <kc2bez> It can help for sure.
 which version do you have ?
[22:10] <kc2bez> I am running the development release on this machine but I have others that run 19.04
 which dev rel @kc2bez
 i have 19.04 on others, but after first booting it will display virtual keyboard on the screen
 i don't know why but after rebooting i couldn't SSH the box because it still didn't login... how to solve that
[22:16] <kc2bez> 19.10. It will be released in October. I am on the development team.
 cool, in which part do you ?
 @ctisme [i don't know why but after rebooting i couldn't SSH the box because it still did …], i upgraded from 18.04 FYi
[22:18] <kc2bez> I help where needed. I have been focusing on the Calamares installer and settings as of late.
[22:20] <kc2bez> Weird you couldn't ssh. That shouldn't be the case but maybe something isn't starting in the right order there.
 after i login the box pingable
 Calamares -> qtpack manager?
 @ctisme [after i login the box pingable], where starting list should i check?
[22:36] <kc2bez> Calamares is the installer for Lubuntu since 18.10
[22:37] <kc2bez> So it sounds like the network service is starting  which is good @ctisme
[22:40] <kc2bez> To check on the sshd service you can issue a `systemctl status sshd`in the terminal @ctisme
