| Cooler | available for ubuntu? | 00:02 |
| fructose | Cooler: Do you mean that specific appication or just something that does something similar? | 00:13 |
| NoCode | Do I absolutely need a efi and boot partition when dual booting both Ubuntu 18.04 and Windows 10? | 00:20 |
| n-iCe | hi | 00:20 |
| NoCode | I'm having issues with trying to dual boot both Ubuntu and Windows 10. Even when booting Ubuntu, Grub Menu doesn't show Windows 10. | 00:22 |
| CoolerX | fructose, something similar | 00:24 |
| CoolerX | I found this but it is not for ubuntu https://github.com/phw/peek#installation | 00:24 |
| CoolerX | other linux distros only | 00:25 |
| e|f | NoCode, that's why you have one machine for Windows, and another one for Linux | 00:25 |
| e|f | :p | 00:25 |
| NoCode | oh god, I just spent a lot of money on a bunch of things. I'm not getting another machine. | 00:26 |
| NoCode | If I get another machine, it | 00:26 |
| NoCode | If I get another machine, it'll be for a data server. | 00:27 |
| e|f | i have a gaming machine with Windows 10. i thought about dual-booting with linux but reconsidered (the problem you're having now) so went out and bought a cheap laptop to run linux on | 00:27 |
| e|f | ... that way, if this linux machine shits itself, no big deal | 00:31 |
| e|f | i had your exact problem a few years back when i wanted to try out ubuntu | 00:32 |
| NoCode | I have a laptop with an Arch derivative on it and I only use the laptop on outings and things. So I don't really want to have two separate machines to do things. I've bought and installed Windows to get my music things to work better with supported software for the hardware I have. | 00:32 |
| e|f | ok | 00:32 |
| NoCode | And I'll probably play games on it somewhat. | 00:32 |
| e|f | yeah | 00:33 |
| NoCode | Other than that, I'm like 100% Linux. | 00:33 |
| NoCode | It's usually the other way around. "Damn it, I can't get blah blah Linux, blah blah. | 00:33 |
| NoCode | " | 00:33 |
| e|f | yeah | 00:33 |
| NoCode | :D | 00:33 |
| e|f | what version of ubuntu are you trying? | 00:34 |
| NoCode | 18.04 | 00:35 |
| e|f | ok | 00:35 |
| NoCode | I might try to make an efi parititon, and a boot partition. Along with my /root and /home partitions. | 00:35 |
| e|f | yeah | 00:35 |
| e|f | have a look in bios | 00:36 |
| e|f | you probably already have | 00:36 |
| NoCode | oh yes | 00:36 |
| mmarconm | is there a way to remove this "rectangule" when we move to another workspace | 00:38 |
| NoCode | e|f, in these circumstances, did you try to make a /efi. /boot, /root, /home partitions on your Linux install? | 00:40 |
| NoCode | I'm going to try that now. | 00:40 |
| * NoCode sighs | 00:40 | |
| Bashing-om | !uefi | NoCode | 00:41 |
| ubottu | NoCode: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 00:41 |
