=== brainwash_ is now known as brainwash [07:33] whats best application to connect android ? i see two gsconnect and kdeconnect . any xfce native tool ? on bionic [07:34] Regor: What do you want to achieve with the connection? Exchanging data, using it as a modem, ...? [07:34] only exchanging files [07:35] wifi based tool [07:41] yo peeps [07:41] i dont get about terms [07:42] also bye bye [09:14] Regor: ah, you want it wifi-based? [09:14] then what I really like is some tool to use ftp [09:15] so installing an ftp server on your phone, activating it when required, and connecting with e.g. filezilla [09:15] but only works on trusted networks === sm0rux is now known as Guest91383 === sm0rux_ is now known as Guest19044 [11:30] gnrp: have you looked at Termux? It does ftp server but also sshd, rsync, etc. https://wiki.termux.com/wiki/Remote_Access [11:44] sublevel: Hm, good idea, will have a look [12:06] gnrp: thanks ! ftp is cool ! [12:07] Termux looks cool [12:08] it's fantastic, I'm typing here using termux->ssh->my server running weechat [12:08] thats awesome ! [12:10] i also use weechat ...so it would have fun :D [12:10] I haven't tried ssh/sftp'ing from laptop to Termux, but it looks pretty easy [12:11] yeah i would see that stuff [12:13] The screenshot on its wiki homepage is running weechat, they know their audience! [12:13] :) [12:25] Hi everyone. [12:26] hi [12:26] I have set up a dual boot with Xubuntu 16.04 and 18.04 [12:27] Strange thing is... I can only edit and change grub from 18.04. When I try the saem via 16.04 it has no effect on grub. [12:27] how do you do this "edit and change grub"? [12:27] Is this normal behaviour? I use grub-customizer to edit grub here. [12:28] I don't know grub-customizer, but I can well imagine that 16.04 is editing some configuration that the actual grub, installed by 18.04, does not care about [12:29] You mean that maybe 18.04 uses a newer grub version or something? [12:30] Maybe it's just a little glitch. I might try to reinstall the whole thing and see if the problem remains. [12:31] There isn't some special I should do in order to create a dual boot, is there? Just install 16.04 from a live USB, and then do the same for 18.04, right? [12:31] I don't think a reinstallation would help [12:31] I don't know grub-customizer, but can't you set the configuration that shall be edited in there? [12:31] Well, there other problems aswell, so I really need to reinstall the whole thing. [12:33] Ah, bingo! :p [12:33] Yes, you can switch partitions. :D [12:33] Thanks for thinking along here. I think this solved it [12:34] good :) [12:35] I'm having a lot of trouble with an nvida videocard. It seems the standard xorg driver is not working properly for that card. But that's someting I'll look into when I reinstall the whole thing again. [12:53] depends on the card. The proprietary nvidia driver is a bit of a pain, but usually works fine === brainwash_ is now known as brainwash === torstehu_ is now known as torstehu [16:25] hello. when my screen goes blank, i have to type a password to unlock it... but the screen remains blank... so i tohught at first that my laptop had crashed, but it turns out it does accept passwords, the screen is just blank until i type the right password [16:30] does it come back after you type the passwd? [16:51] talin: bug 1801609 [16:51] bug 1801609 in xorg-server (Ubuntu) "Fails to deactivate dpms off mode after user initiated wake-up events(not system-suspended, just locked and dpms active)" [Undecided,Won't fix] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1801609 [23:44] hello all. I've just installed Xubuntu 16.04 and am facing a problem with keyboard shortcuts. I use F12 in qt creator for a particular function but even after disabling the system shortcut (meant to switch to workspace 12) I can't get xubuntu to pass the F12 keystroke to any application [23:44] Any help is appreciated [23:45] Other shortcuts work. E.g. F3 does get passed on to the application. It was assigned to the system function "Switch to workspace 3"
