[08:42] <neonzz> flavour man myspelling this morning :/
[08:43] <diogenes_> neonzz, what is the original question?
[08:45] <neonzz> I am new to xubuntu but not new to linux is there any advice on a dual booting with windows and general best practice for this version of linux
[08:47] <diogenes_> neonzz, no problems with dual boot and the distro is all setup and ready to run right after the installation.
[08:55] <neonzz> Awesome :D
[17:23] <Robo2020> Hey, I'm having an issue where I can't edit GRUB's configuration.
[17:24] <diogenes_> Robo2020, what you trying to do
[17:24] <Robo2020> I want to set it up, so that GRUB doesn't appear. I have only Xubuntu 18.04 installed. There are 3 entries whenever I boot.
[17:25] <Robo2020> I forgot the names of the entries, though.
[17:25] <Robo2020> I tried changing the timeout to 1 second, and it didn't make any difference.
[17:26] <diogenes_> Robo2020, cat /etc/default/grub | nc termbin.com 9999
[17:26] <diogenes_> share the link
[17:27] <Robo2020> https://termbin.com/sj5f
[17:29] <diogenes_> Robo2020, replace GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=hidden with GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0
[17:30] <diogenes_> and below GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0 add GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=true
[17:30] <diogenes_> save, close and run: sudo update grub
[17:33] <Robo2020> ok, updated, reboot now?
[17:33] <diogenes_>  cat /etc/default/grub | nc termbin.com 9999
 share the link
[17:33] <diogenes_> share
[17:34] <Robo2020> https://termbin.com/el55
[17:35] <diogenes_> looks good, reboot.
[17:39] <Robo2020> Nope. I still get GRUB 2.02. The last entry is "System Setup" that takes me to a menu, where I can press F-keys to enter BIOS or choose boot devices. It's a HP laptop.
[17:39] <Robo2020> I think that last entry is the problem.
[17:40] <Robo2020> I looked in the BIOS and didn't find any interesting options.
[17:41] <diogenes_> Robo2020, why you need to go to system setup? what is the first entry?
[17:42] <Robo2020> First entry is: Ubuntu.
[17:42] <Robo2020> Second: Ubuntu recovery.
[17:42] <Robo2020> Third: System Setup
[17:43] <diogenes_> Robo2020, sudo apt install grub-customizer
[17:43] <Robo2020> did that just now
[17:44] <diogenes_> in the menu open it and look through the options.
[17:45] <diogenes_> there is something like hide the menu ...
[17:45] <diogenes_> don't forget to save changes
[17:45] <Robo2020> yeah, don't look for other operating systems? maybe that
[17:46] <diogenes_> that too
[17:47] <diogenes_> i forgot the options, it's been awhile since i last used it.
[17:48] <Robo2020> yeah, that's okay, i'll try rebooting
[17:51] <Robo2020> Nopes. What does "Install to MBR..." do?
[17:52] <diogenes_> it installs the bootcode to mbr section of the hdd.
[17:53] <diogenes_> don't do that if you don't know what you do.
[17:54] <Robo2020> Okay.
[17:54] <Robo2020> I'll remove the System Setup entry and reboot.
[17:56] <Robo2020> I have no idea what's wrong with it.
[17:57] <Robo2020> lol
[17:57] <Robo2020> It's like the config file doesn't work.
[17:57] <Robo2020> Has been like this ever since I installed linux.
[17:57] <Robo2020> Only ever used Ubuntu, though.
[20:02] <nuevoxubuntuamd> hola
[20:03] <nuevoxubuntuamd> buenas tardes
