Bashing-omRossenburg: Remind me of what we are working :)00:59
Rossenburgjust installed Nvidia-340 from Software & Updates, but havent restarted pc cause the same thing may happen... dpkg -l | grep nvidia gives me https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/NcjJ2PFTWK/01:00
Rossenburgwe were working on solving my pc getting stucked at colored splashed screen and turns back to blank screen whiles monitor is on after anything i install nvidia drivers01:01
Bashing-omRossenburg: looking ^ .01:01
Rossenburgthe pc works completely fine with the default nouvea graphics, but any time i try to update the graphics to nvidia in other to run certain programs and games, it get stuck after reboot01:02
Bashing-om!info nvidia-settings bionic01:03
ubottunvidia-settings (source: nvidia-settings): Tool for configuring the NVIDIA graphics driver. In component main, is optional. Version 390.77-0ubuntu0.18.04.1 (bionic), package size 922 kB, installed size 3149 kB01:03
Bashing-omRossenburg: ^^ what release is this ?01:03
Rossenburgit came along with the nvidia-340 installation, when i type nvidia-settings in terminal it gives certain error, i think maybe because i have reboot, the drivers installation is still incomplete01:05
Bashing-omRossenburg: I am concerned that "418.56-0ubuntu0~gpu18.04.1" installed - so again what release is this ?01:06
Rossenburgnvidia-settings gives https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/ny3r262kBx/01:07

Bashing-omRossenburg94: And what are you "developing" that you have binutils-x86-64-linux-gnu and linux-libc-dev:amd64 installed ?01:23
Rossenburg94that wasnt installed manually, i dont think i was the one who installed01:24
Bashing-omRossenburg94: Let's see what is going to happen IF removed ' sudo apt -s remove --purge binutils-x86-64-linux-gnu '. The '-s' is simulate.01:28
Rossenburg94https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/83MDN5KNtM/01:29
Bashing-omRossenburg94: That appears to be the culprit. Ready to live dangerously ?01:36
Rossenburg94lmao, yeah ready! :D01:37
=== Kumool is now known as Monev
Bashing-omRossenburg94: Going to wreck havoc with the programming environmnet - If you do find you need a tool can always be reinstalled. we deal with binutils-x86-64-linux-gnu, and then linux-libc-dev:amd64.01:39
Rossenburg94okay01:40
Bashing-omRossenburg94: Run 'sudo apt remove --purge binutils-x86-64-linux-gnu '.01:41
Rossenburg94executed, https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/jbzp6Y6Y9H/01:44
Rossenburg94got rid of nvidia-340 too i guess01:44
Bashing-omRossenburg94: looking.01:44
Bashing-omRossenburg94: So far so good -who wudda thunk it ?OK now ' sudo apt remove --purge linux-libc-dev:amd64'. Then we look at Nvidia.01:47
Rossenburg94https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/cWcpyzwnTG/01:48
Bashing-omRossenburg94: Looks good too. OK what have we Nvidia wise ? ' dpkg -l | grep -i nvidia ; lsmod | grep nvidia'.01:50
Rossenburg94https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/QRZ3VCwgQW/01:52
Bashing-omRossenburg94: Humm ..and lsmod ?01:53
Rossenburg94https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/Bnj4CnB7B6/01:54
Bashing-omRossenburg94: "nouveau              1871872  3" so we know that nvidia never did build/load. We make sure nvidia is purged:' sudo apt remove --purge nvidia* ' then look again at ' dpkg -l | grep -i nvidia '. Small steps will get there :)01:58

Rossenburg94 dpkg -l | grep -i nvidia shows nothing now, looks like everything "nvidia" is removed :)02:06
Bashing-omRossenburg94: Bite the bullet for this surgical strike; We now run ' sudo apt --purge autoremove ' as the package manager suggestes. fingers crossed and reboot !02:10

jarnosI have a usability problem: When I fling up or down using touchpad, and after releasing my fingers press some modifier key, the fling command may change. How can you disable that?14:38
jarnosFor example, if I have the compositor enabled in Windows Manager Tweaks, and I press (maybe unintionally) alt key, the system will zoom UI.14:39
jarnosThis is also annoying when using Chromium when you press ctrl after flinging.15:24
