[00:19] <andreiasnico> heey:D, i was wondering if anybody knows how to install ratbagd on xubuntu 16.04
[00:25] <sublevel> Seems to be discontinued but there's a link to a newer tool https://github.com/libratbag/ratbagd
[00:26] <Bashing-om> andreiasnico: Still in 18.04: ratbagd/bionic,bionic 0.4-3 amd64 .
[00:26] <Unit193> !info ratbagd focal
[00:28] <Unit193> Pretty sure Xubuntu 16.04 is EOL.
[00:28] <andreiasnico> that is Xenial
[00:28] <andreiasnico> i'm retarded
[00:28] <sublevel> Whoops, I missed that - didn't click to show all results on https://packages.ubuntu.com
[00:29] <andreiasnico> yea it is on the end of life, but i some robotics programs support only 15.04 and 16.04 ( Ros) so i have to use it...
[00:30] <Unit193> Looks like at the time it was introduced to Debian, it barely skipped Xenial.
[00:30] <sublevel> There's instructions for compiling libratbag  https://github.com/libratbag/libratbag#compiling-libratbag
[00:31] <andreiasnico> i tried to compile it already, but i am new to it. and when i run that it gives me the error :Run-time dependency json-glib-1.0 found: NO (tried pkgconfig and cmake)meson.build:75:0: ERROR: Dependency "json-glib-1.0" not found, tried pkgconfig and cmake
[00:32] <Unit193> http://wiki.ros.org/melodic/Installation ?
[00:33] <andreiasnico> i have to use the kinetic one since my robot implementation is on that....  i dont make the rules, my university teacher does....
[00:33] <andreiasnico> http://wiki.ros.org/kinetic/Installation/Ubuntu
[00:33] <Unit193> Older version only needed https://sources.debian.org/src/libratbag/0.5-2/debian/control/, newer version needs https://sources.debian.org/src/libratbag/0.11-1/debian/control/
[00:35] <andreiasnico> i dont understand what i am supposed to see here
[00:36] <Unit193> Build-Depends is the list you should be looking at.
[00:38] <andreiasnico> the thing is, i have installed the dependency for the new one, yet somehow it does not recognize it.
[00:39] <Unit193> Bah, fiine.  Let me take a stab at it, I'll see what's up.
[00:40] <andreiasnico> how?  do you want log ?
[00:42] <Unit193> Nah, just give me a sec.
[00:43] <Unit193> Ah right, the newest one uses meson, which isn't in xenial.
[00:43] <andreiasnico> wait, wait. sorry dude. i brain farted. no need to struggle anymore
[00:44] <Unit193> Hah, what's up?
[00:45] <andreiasnico> yes i found the bigger pakage it was depedent on, and i needed to install that, not only the thing it was referencing. "libjson-glib-dev"   Sorry to disturb you. I am pretty new to this
[00:46] <Unit193> Nice, -backports has everything needed to build the package. \o/
[00:50] <andreiasnico> at the risk of sounding more stupid you mean https://backports.debian.org/?
[00:53] <Unit193> No, Ubuntu's backports.
[01:00] <Unit193> (I"m a packager, so I was curious how hard it'd be to backport the package itself rather than just building the thing.)
[01:07] <andreiasnico> i have no idea :))
[01:09] <Unit193> It (mostly) can, I just built it, buildlog: https://unit193.net/source/libratbag_0.11-1_amd64.build.  Anywho, glad you got it working!
[01:12] <andreiasnico> i'm still finishing, i was just frustrated on that one that i had to seek help lol
[01:31] <andreiasnico> do you have more wisdom to share?
[01:31] <Unit193> Oh sorry.  Was there another question?
[01:31] <andreiasnico> no, just found another one :))
[01:31] <andreiasnico> i have been using these steps to install everything
[01:31] <andreiasnico> https://github.com/libratbag/libratbag/blob/master/README.md#running-ratbagd-as-dbus-activated-systemd-service
[01:32] <andreiasnico> yet i do not have this /usr/share/systemd/system/ratbagd.service
[01:34] <Unit193> The package I built has it in /lib/systemd/system/ratbagd.service, not sure why it'd be in usr/share.
[01:34] <andreiasnico> i used default params when istalling
[01:44] <andreiasnico> so the package that you build an executable and just works?      and how should i uninstall the shit that i have done and do yours then ? :))
[01:46] <Unit193> I didn't actually run it since I'm either on Bionic or Eoan.  I'd hope that ninja would also have an unstall command, but presumably/hopefully most of the stuff is in /usr/local/?
[01:46] <andreiasnico> oh yea, so i can just rm if that doesnt work
[01:47] <Unit193> When you ran the install command, it should have printed where it put everything.
[01:51] <andreiasnico> yea, it somehow installed in the directory of the downloaded files
[01:56] <andreiasnico> could you perhaps give me the pack that you made?
[01:57] <Unit193> I'd like to mention first that it may not be the best idea to trust random people on the internet, but all binary packages resulting from the build are in https://unit193.net/source/
[01:57] <Unit193> 'dbgsym' packages are only debug symbols.
[02:00] <andreiasnico> ummm ok
[02:00] <andreiasnico> lol
[02:18] <andreiasnico> yours doesnt run on my machine :))
[02:19] <andreiasnico> Detailed errors from the package manager follow:do not know how to install app in state unknown
[02:22] <Unit193> Sounds like dpkg isn't in a good state, rather.  sudo dpkg --configure -a && sudo apt-get install -f  ?
[02:27] <andreiasnico> i fucking hate this shit already. its fucking 3:30 am here and killing myself. I think the problem is that some of the python dependencies that i have are only for my user and not root as well. or some kind of ownership bullshit. Thank you very much for your effort though <3
[04:41] <xubuntu68w> ight i have no clue what im doing i just wanna download windows 10 on here
[06:34] <stevelin> Clues gratefully received: DPMS does not appear to work on Xubuntu (19.10) on Raspberry Pi 4B. 'xset dpms force off' blanks the screen but the hdmi monitor back light is still on. This was a firmware issue but I think the firmware I'm using works now as 'tvservice -o' does switch off the hdmi. Any way to get this working with the Pi 4?
[06:57] <stevelin> Please help. DPMS does not appear to work with Xubuntu (Ubuntu 19.10) on Raspberry Pi 4B. 'xset dpms force off' blanks the display but does not switch off the hdmi monitor backlight. There was a firmware issue but I believe this is fixed as 'tvservice -o' does switch off HDMI and the backlight goes off. Any clues? Thanks.
[07:52] <xubuntu75w> i have a problem when i use xubuntu 18.04 on my macbook. the display is 2k .how to change the xubuntu for high dpi.X)
[07:52] <xubuntu75w> anybody know how to fix it - -!
[08:18] <well_laid_lawn> xubuntu75w:  see if this helps https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2099498
[08:46] <xubuntu75w> well_laid_lawn thank u very much buddy
[08:47] <well_laid_lawn> it helped ? well done
[08:48] <xubuntu75w> no - - i change font size  、 dpi 、 panel
[08:49] <well_laid_lawn> ok hope it's working for you now
[08:49] <xubuntu75w> font-size: double 18，dpi 128 ，panel size：48.
[08:50] <xubuntu75w> font-size default 9
[08:50] <xubuntu75w> 😃
[08:51] <well_laid_lawn> obviously not for hi res displays ;)
[08:51] <well_laid_lawn> which, to be honest, most don't have
[08:55] <xubuntu75w> Now  hi res displays very cheap. I think it will be more and more popular!  For example . aoc only need  $100 for 27 inch X-P
[08:56] <well_laid_lawn> yep and in time defaults will follow suit, just not yet imo
[08:57] <well_laid_lawn> I still use a 2011 laptop 'cause it still does everything well'
[08:57] <well_laid_lawn> and I'm sure I'm not alone with that approach
[08:59] <xubuntu75w> i use a 2013 late macbook . chang disk to hp ex920 1t. look very good - -!
[08:59] <well_laid_lawn> :)
[09:01] <xubuntu75w> see u later 88
