[01:17] <Juako> Hello! I have some problems installing xubuntu, anybody can answer a few questions?
[09:26] <AliasMarlowe> I have a problem with Xubuntu: it randomly freezes intermittently. I have determined that it is not the driver code, itself. It seems to happen when there is a network connection (not NFS related). Is there any Xubuntu keyboard layouts which would work. I have a 4K display (a Philips BDM4037U), FWIW.
[10:09] <AliasMarlowe> I have also a ROG (Republic Of Gamers) 1060 card. All Xubuntu files are up-to-date. Currently waiting for it to crash.
[11:03] <gnrp> AliasMarlowe: How freezy? I mean, do you stilll use magic sysrq?
[12:14] <ryan-c> How do I do an expert mode install in 19.10?
[12:18] <diogenes_> what is expert mode?
[12:18] <ryan-c> The text mode installer that asks more questions.
[12:19] <ryan-c> Is that no longer a thing?
[12:20] <diogenes_> hehe then arch and gentoo.
[12:20] <ryan-c> Debian has it.
[12:21] <ryan-c> Is there at least a way to get a root shell during install so I can partition manually?
[12:22] <ryan-c> (yes, I see the GUI option, I want GPT partition tables and I've got no idea whether it's using them)
[12:22] <diogenes_> you pick 'something else'
[12:23] <ryan-c> That isn't good enough.
[12:23] <diogenes_> or alt+ctrl+t
[12:24] <ryan-c> that works thanks
[12:25] <diogenes_> np
[14:08] <AliasMarlowe> @gnrp I don't know what "magic sysrq" is.
[14:50] <gnrp> AliasMarlowe: Press Alt+SysRq+S, then you should see the hdd led flashing
[15:25] <jarnos> I can not eject am USB drive because /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/tumbler-1/tumblerd is keeping it busy. Why?
[15:26] <jarnos> Is it safe to eject anyway?
[15:39] <Axzercion> I don't advice that jarnos. https://askubuntu.com/questions/89826/what-is-tumblerd suggests running "killall -HUP tumblerd" before ejecting
[15:53] <jarnos> Thunar is using 30% of CPU at the same time.
[15:55] <jarnos> Why is tumblerd even running? This is local USB drive.
[15:57] <Axzercion> explanation about tumblerd can be found on the site I just linked
[16:49] <jarnos> Pretty old bug that is Bug #582501
[16:49] <jarnos> Bug #1319554
[16:54] <jarnos> And still present in eoan
[16:56] <jarnos> But not a problem if you use pcmanfm instead of thunar. I just miss custom actions from thunar.
[17:18] <xubuntu20w> is this thing on? need quick way to copy my xubuntu server onto other hardware
[18:38] <jarnos_> Anyone knows a PPA with few dependency upgrades for eoan (for testing purpose)?
