[00:00] <OvenWerks> did you check the downloaded iso checksum?
[00:00] <Kiui> yeah, it matched
[00:00] <OvenWerks> The fact that it runs live would make me think it dl properly
[00:00] <OerHeks> if nouveau gives an error, i presume, this might fix it,
[00:00] <OerHeks> https://linuxconfig.org/how-to-disable-nouveau-nvidia-driver-on-ubuntu-18-04-bionic-beaver-linux
[00:00] <Kiui> I previously installed this exact same one on an iMac with no trouble at all
[00:01] <OvenWerks> right, so iso is ok
[00:02] <Kiui> and my SSD with Windows works
[00:02] <Kiui> but I don't get GRUB either
[00:02] <OerHeks> how did you install the nvidia driver?
[00:03] <OvenWerks> nouveau is default, no install needed
[00:04] <OvenWerks> once you are up with that, The software and updates tool has an "additional Drivers" tab
[00:04] <Kiui> I.... didn't?
[00:05] <OvenWerks> Kiui: grub will only show if there is more than one OS on the drive
[00:06] <OvenWerks> however, if you hold the shift key down while booting the grub menu should show.
[00:07] <OerHeks> sometimes ESC ..
[00:08] <OerHeks> i would try nomodeset.
[00:08] <OvenWerks> once you get to the grub screen
[00:08] <OvenWerks> ...
[00:09] <Kiui> neither gets me to that screen
[00:09] <Kiui> oop
[00:09] <Kiui> there is goes, got grub
[00:09] <OvenWerks> F1 gives help
[00:10] <OvenWerks> one of the other f keys should do video options
[00:11] <Kiui> nope, F keys do nothing
[00:15] <OvenWerks> huh, what does it say along the bottom of the grub screen? Maybe things have changed with grub
[00:15] <Kiui> nothing
[00:15] <Kiui> just
[00:15] <Kiui> Grub>
[00:16] <OvenWerks> grub used to have oh, so it has gone past the menu
[00:16] <OvenWerks> That is the grub prompt which normally only happens if it found no kernel to load
[00:16] <Kiui> uhhh
[00:17] <Kiui> should I re-install it then?    If I type exit, it loads windows 10
[00:18] <OvenWerks> so you have two partitions, studio and win10. That should be possible. but I don't know how it works
[00:18] <Kiui> well...one SSD is windows, and my HDD is linux
[00:19] <OvenWerks> I would think in that case the grub menu should always show up.
[00:20] <OvenWerks> two partitions one on each drive should still have grub show up because when grub installs it checks all the drives it can find for a stratable o9s
[00:20] <OvenWerks> *startable
[00:21] <Kiui> maybe I should wipe the HDD, re-do linux
[00:21] <OvenWerks> There are very few people here, but this sounds like it would be the same for any ubuntu flavour and there are a lot more people on #ubuntu.
[00:21] <Kiui> even the live Usb states Nouveau - "unknown Chipset'
[00:21] <OvenWerks> that is always some thing you can try
[00:22] <OvenWerks> how old is the graphics card
[00:22] <OvenWerks> is it either really new orolder?
[00:22] <Kiui> Gtx 1660 6Gb.  so..less than a year I think
[00:23] <OvenWerks> So maybe too new for 18.04
[00:24] <Kiui> oo
[00:24] <OvenWerks> 19.10 may be a better choice
[00:24] <Kiui> didn't know that was a thing that could happen
[00:25] <Kiui> no music oriented distro I've tried today has worked properly on this desktop so far x.x
[00:25] <OvenWerks> The nvidea drivers (kernel modules) are made by nvidea and I don't know if they make those for anything older than the newest kernel.
[00:27] <OerHeks> driver ppa perhaps..
[00:27] <OerHeks> or HWE
[00:28] <OvenWerks> have to be able to boot first
[00:28] <OvenWerks> so far we haven't got to the grub screen (menu)
[00:30] <Kiui> true
[00:31] <Kiui> x.x had to pop over to a bigger screen, phone was killing me
[00:31] <Kiui> but nah, can't get grub menu either
[00:36] <Kiui> I think I'll download 19.10 and see what it does

[13:53] <studiobot> <danielmkarlsson> I would like to run Ubuntu Studio on a PineBook Pro. … It has an ARM processor. What are my chances here?
[14:43] <OerHeks> i see no arm build..
[14:44] <studiobot> <danielmkarlsson> Yeah, same. So then, proly a no go huh?
[14:45] <OerHeks> i am afraid so, danielmkarlsson
[14:47] <studiobot> <danielmkarlsson> Bummer.  … Peace and love to everyone here.  … I’m out then I guess.

[22:25] <PLC> hi' there :)
[22:26] <PLC> I'm looking for information about ubuntu studio and desktop environnement ..
[22:27] <PLC> is it realist to not use XFCE ? :)
[22:32] <OerHeks> you can switch, sure.
[22:33] <OerHeks> xfce is choosen for stability, lightweight
[22:33] <OerHeks> !flavors
[22:33] <ubottu> Recognized Ubuntu flavors build on Ubuntu and provide a different user experience out of the box. They are supported both in #ubuntu and in their flavor channel. For a list, see https://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu-flavours
[22:49] <PLC> Sure..
[22:49] <PLC> :)
[22:52] <PLC> I need just direct launcher for my daily challenge ^^
[22:53] <PLC> for now I'm under Mint (Cinnamon) but I saw this distrib more interesting for my hobby :)
[22:54] <OerHeks> beware: mint has its own issues
[22:56] <PLC> sure
[22:57] <PLC> I want to switch ;)
[22:57] <PLC> but XFCE pushes me back a little
