| tbs | how can i be sure my laptop doesnt have bluetooth | 19:04 |
| wxl | lspci should reveal any bluetooth | 19:05 |
| wxl | honestly, it should reveal any device whatsoever | 19:05 |
| kc2bez | If you have a usb (external plugin dongle) device you can use lsusb | 19:22 |
| wxl | although assumedly you would know that by physically seeing it XD | 19:25 |
| kc2bez | Very true but if you are troubleshooting you can see if the system recognizes it. | 19:26 |
| tbs | kc2bez: i have a laptop and im not sure if it has bluetooth or just bluedevil wizard doesnt work, how can i be sure? | 19:30 |
| wxl | tbs: like i said, lspci | 19:32 |
| tbs | wxl: sorry i didnt see ur message before | 19:33 |
| tbs | and idk what s lspci | 19:33 |
| wxl | open terminal | 19:33 |
| wxl | type lspci | 19:33 |
| tbs | Bluetooth: Ralink corp. RT3290 Bluetooth | 19:34 |
| tbs | so i have | 19:34 |
| wxl | yup | 19:34 |
| tbs | i couldnt use it when i use win7, i come to linux about 3 months ago | 19:35 |
| tbs | cuz there was no bluetooth driver for my laptop | 19:35 |
| tbs | for win7 | 19:35 |
| wxl | well windows 7 is dead so :) | 19:36 |
| tbs | well, i wouldnt mind about that actually, i didnt use updates or antivirus for years with win7 already for years | 19:37 |
| wxl | https://askubuntu.com/questions/1092512/rt3290-ralink-driver-in-ubuntu-18-04 | 19:38 |
| wxl | you are a brave soul | 19:38 |
| wxl | i wouldn't trust windows to ANYTHING, updated or not | 19:38 |
| wxl | https://askubuntu.com/questions/778615/ralink-rt-3290-bluetooth-problem-on-ubuntu-16-04 | 19:39 |
| wxl | looks like you've got a very problematic driver that might require some compiling to get it to work | 19:39 |
| tbs | and didnt get any problem or virus, there s toolwiz timefreez to help me, i would be happy if there s an app like that at linux too :/ | 19:39 |
| wxl | https://askubuntu.com/questions/756166/rt3290-ralink-driver-in-ubuntu | 19:39 |

| wxl | linux malware is incredibly rare. like almost unheard of. | 19:40 |
| tbs | isnt android also linux? | 19:40 |
| === lubuntu is now known as Guest23411 | ||
| wxl | it uses a linux kernel, yes | 19:41 |
| wxl | https://github.com/ashishb/android-malware | 19:41 |
| wxl | even there, relatively small number | 19:41 |
| tbs | what about virus? | 19:42 |
| wxl | viruses are a subset of malware | 19:42 |
| tbs | i heard there s a lot of viruses for android | 19:43 |
| wxl | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Android_malware | 19:45 |

| tbs | https://askubuntu.com/questions/778615/ralink-rt-3290-bluetooth-problem-on-ubuntu-16-04 | 19:52 |
| tbs | i try to do this but i get error when i write make | 19:52 |
| tbs | make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop. | 19:52 |
| wxl | i don't know which instruction you're following, but this is a general problem with trying to understand how compilation works. generally you do `./configure` then `make` | 19:54 |
| tbs | wxl: ^ | 19:54 |
| tbs | hmm | 19:55 |

| lubot | <PaulOverTelegram> Hi everyone | 20:19 |
| wxl | o/ | 20:19 |
| lubot | <PaulOverTelegram> (Photo, 967x541) https://i.imgur.com/gkhu54Y.jpg | 20:23 |
| wxl | did you check the integrity of the iso and the installation media? | 20:23 |
| wxl | also what version is this? | 20:23 |
| lubot | <PaulOverTelegram> I encounter a similar error installing every linux distro based on ubuntu. This helps me but this is a different installer than the ubiquity. At least I have tried to open it and it does not work | 20:25 |
| lubot | <PaulOverTelegram> (Photo, 1234x1079) https://i.imgur.com/JMRx23g.jpg | 20:25 |
| lubot | <PaulOverTelegram> @wxl [<wxl> also what version is this?], 19.10 64-bit | 20:25 |
| lubot | <PaulOverTelegram> @wxl [<wxl> did you check the integrity of the iso and the installation media?], I am sure it's good because this always happens to me. (I think the problem is caused by my "hard drive" which is a 32 GB eMMC) | 20:26 |
| wxl | did you do the checks? | 20:26 |
| lubot | <PaulOverTelegram> @wxl [<wxl> did you do the checks?], Not officially but I am sure this is the problem I know and encounter for ages | 20:27 |
| wxl | well until they're dnoe, i can't rule out the most common issue | 20:27 |
| lubot | <PaulOverTelegram> I solve it but running the installer without installing the bootloader and installing the bootloader alone | 20:27 |
| lubot | <PaulOverTelegram> Well I am performing them right now | 20:28 |
| lubot | <PaulOverTelegram> "Check finished: no errors found" press any key to reboot your system | 20:28 |
| wxl | this is the "check disc for defects?" | 20:29 |
| lubot | <PaulOverTelegram> @wxl [<wxl> this is the "check disc for defects?"], Yes | 20:29 |
| lubot | <PaulOverTelegram> @PaulOverTelegram [<reply to image>], This always fixes it for me. Just can't find a way how to tell the installer not to install the bootloader | 20:29 |
| wxl | doesn't look like calamares supports it https://github.com/calamares/calamares/issues/517 | 20:32 |
| lubot | <PaulOverTelegram> Well do you think if I install the ubiquity it could work? | 20:32 |
| lubot | <PaulOverTelegram> It's offered me an option to install me but I've never needed to do this before so idk how this is going to work | 20:33 |
| wxl | lubuntu doesn't use ubiquity so i doubt it will help; it's not configured as such | 20:33 |
| lubot | <PaulOverTelegram> The last option which pops into my mind is using an external hard drive | 20:34 |
| lubot | <PaulOverTelegram> I have some WD HDD so I'll try this one and hope it'll work | 20:35 |
| wxl | to be fair, i've never tested it on an eMMC | 20:35 |
| lubot | <PaulOverTelegram> @wxl [<wxl> to be fair, i've never tested it on an eMMC], Yeah it's pretty tricky | 20:35 |
| lubot | <PaulOverTelegram> Okay it's done. Now let's see if it works | 20:37 |
| tbs | E: The repository 'http://ppa.launchpad.net/morphis/anbox-support/ubuntu eoan Release' does not have a Release file. | 20:58 |

| tbs | i get this error, what to do? | 20:58 |
| wxl | find the author of the PPA and ask them | 21:00 |
| wxl | PPAs should be considered unsupported | 21:00 |

| lubot | <aptghetto> Use the snap instead of the PPA | 21:25 |
| tbs | @aptghetto, how can i do that? | 21:34 |
| wxl | @aptghetto unfortunately it still needs the ppa https://github.com/anbox/anbox/blob/master/docs/install.md | 21:42 |
| lubot | <aptghetto> @wxl [<wxl> @aptghetto unfortunately it still needs the ppa https://github.com/anbox/a …], Ah, sorry. I remember now, that I had troubles with it on newer releases. … But I have cloned the repo https://github.com/anbox/anbox-modules and compiled it myself. Then the anbox snap works also on 20.04 (development version). … But that isn | 22:06 |

| kc2bez | This is the support channel for Lubuntu. did you have a question Guest83669 ? | 22:11 |
| Guest83669 | oh, no. i just installed this and messing around | 22:12 |

| blammo | hey everyone. I'm trying to get a multifunction printer working fully, and I was wondering if someone could suggest an easy app for a scanning test? Just something to acquire the images from the scanner? | 22:13 |

| blamm00 | hey everyone. I'm trying to get a multifunction printer working fully, and I was wondering if someone could suggest an easy app for a scanning test? Just something to acquire the images from the scanner? | 22:14 |
| kc2bez | which version of Lubuntu blamm00 ? | 22:14 |
| blamm00 | sorry about the duplicate. kc2bez Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS | 22:16 |
| blamm00 | I have OpenOffice installed if a part of it can do image acquisition | 22:17 |
| kc2bez | not sure. I have to start up my bionic VM | 22:18 |
| blamm00 | i also have inkscape and gimp installed but lack familiarity with them | 22:18 |
| kc2bez | it looks like simplescan should be installed. | 22:19 |
| blamm00 | it is! | 22:20 |
| Guest83669 | 2048 doesnt work. i try to swipe and its completely unresponsive | 22:20 |
| kc2bez | if that can see your scanner you should be able to use that to scan | 22:20 |
| wxl | Guest83669: "swipe?" | 22:21 |
| blamm00 | kc2bez, it can see the scanner, but gives an error "Failed to scan Error communicating with the scanner" | 22:21 |
| Guest83669 | dont you swipe tiles? | 22:21 |
| wxl | Guest83669: that's a word i reserve for touch interfaces | 22:22 |
| Guest83669 | ooh gotcha | 22:22 |
| kc2bez | Guest83669: I am pretty sure you use the arrow keys. | 22:23 |
| kc2bez | blamm00: what is your scanner model? | 22:23 |
| Guest83669 | arrow keys work | 22:23 |
| Guest83669 | youre the best | 22:23 |
| kc2bez | happy to help Guest83669 | 22:24 |
| blamm00 | kc2bez, if were being honest with each other, I'm not sure the drivers are properly installed. I can print from OpenOffice but it took me several attempts. I last had it working under lubuntu 14.04 following the instructions i found then here: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2245011 although my printer is a Canon MF8280CW | 22:25 |
| blamm00 | kc2bez, I'm unable to print a test page from the system util, but can print from OpenOffice. which is weird to me. | 22:25 |
| blamm00 | kc2bez, I have multiple version of the appropriate files from Canon, if thats helpful. | 22:26 |
| blamm00 | versions* | 22:26 |
| kc2bez | That link takes me to drivers for a different printer model. | 22:30 |
| === Guest83669 is now known as whatamidoinghere | ||
| kc2bez | I don't see any linux drivers on the page for your model https://www.canon-europe.com/support/consumer_products/products/fax__multifunctionals/laser/laserbase_mf_series/i-sensys_mf8280cw.html?type=download&language=EN&os=Linux | 22:32 |
| blamm00 | kc2bez, yes thats right, its a different model. This is the solution I used with this MF8280CW the last time I set up the printer under lubuntu 14. I have also tries instructions I found specifically for this model but did not have success. | 22:32 |
| blamm00 | kc2bez, I'm not sure but I have downloaded the right files for the right printer from Canon multiple times and have several versions available here locally | 22:33 |
| === whatamidoinghere is now known as BonzaiBuddy | ||
| kc2bez | It looks like they may have existed at one point due to the reference here https://askubuntu.com/questions/583968/how-to-install-canon-mf8280cw | 22:33 |
| kc2bez | But when you follow the link there are no linux drivers there. | 22:34 |
| blamm00 | kc2bez, I have the right drivers from Canon here, and Ive tried the information on that askubuntu link you provided but the Software Centre definitely does not open | 22:35 |
| blamm00 | I'm more than willing to try again though. | 22:36 |
| genii | kc2bez: The link needs to now specify 32 or 64 bit. eg: https://www.canon-europe.com/support/consumer_products/products/fax__multifunctionals/laser/laserbase_mf_series/i-sensys_mf8280cw.html?type=drivers&language=en&os=linux%20(64-bit) for 64bit | 22:38 |
| kc2bez | so if you have a .deb file you can install it with gdebi | 22:39 |
| blamm00 | genii, kc2bez yes I had to do some additional navigation and I have all the files for version 5.00 for Linux 64-bit | 22:40 |
| blamm00 | (i also have v3.10 which is what was available the last time I did this under lubuntu 14.04) | 22:41 |
| blamm00 | kc2bez, gdebi? | 22:48 |
| kc2bez | gdebi is a graphical tool to install .Deb packages. | 22:49 |
| blamm00 | kc2bez, If i understand correctly, there are two parts. the CUPS driver and the Canon UFR driver. I've installed both of those from the package you linked. | 22:49 |
| blamm00 | kc2bez, Yes, gdebi seems to be the program that opens up when I double click the 2 .deb packages (CUPS and UFR). The only option is reinstall and remove. | 22:51 |
| === lubuntu is now known as Guest59476 | ||
| === Guest59476 is now known as BonzaiBuddy | ||
| blamm00 | Whats a little unclears is which CUPS .deb file to install? There are 49 of them in those Canon packages | 22:53 |
| kc2bez | I am not sure blamm00 I haven't checked but usually the .Deb package takes care of that part for you. | 22:57 |
| blamm00 | ok ill poke around for a bit more and see. I'll probably be back later | 22:58 |
| blamm00 | ty kc2bez and genii | 22:59 |
