[09:53] <hynb> hi guys
[09:53] <hynb> is anyone online i am very new
[09:54] <hynb> i have not rtfm
[09:54] <diogenes_> !ask
[19:04] <tbs> how can i be sure my laptop doesnt have bluetooth
[19:05] <wxl> lspci should reveal any bluetooth
[19:05] <wxl> honestly, it should reveal any device whatsoever
[19:22] <kc2bez> If you have a usb (external plugin dongle) device you can use lsusb
[19:25] <wxl> although assumedly you would know that by physically seeing it XD
[19:26] <kc2bez> Very true but if you are troubleshooting you can see if the system recognizes it.
[19:30] <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?
[19:32] <wxl> tbs: like i said, lspci
[19:33] <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
[19:34] <tbs> Bluetooth: Ralink corp. RT3290 Bluetooth
[19:34] <tbs> so i have
[19:34] <wxl> yup
[19:35] <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
[19:36] <wxl> well windows 7 is dead so :)
[19:37] <tbs> well, i wouldnt mind about that actually, i didnt use updates or antivirus for years with win7 already for years
[19:38] <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
[19:39] <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] <tbs> im going to read the pages u sent now
[19:40] <wxl> linux malware is incredibly rare. like almost unheard of.
[19:40] <tbs> isnt android also linux?
[19:41] <wxl> it uses a linux kernel, yes
[19:41] <wxl> https://github.com/ashishb/android-malware
[19:41] <wxl> even there, relatively small number
[19:42] <tbs> what about virus?
[19:42] <wxl> viruses are a subset of malware
[19:43] <tbs> i heard there s a lot of viruses for android
[19:45] <wxl> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Android_malware
[19:45] <wxl> doesn't seem like it
[19:45] <wxl> here's the newest one https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xafecopy_Trojan
[19:47] <tbs> :)
[19:52] <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.
[19:54] <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: ^
[19:55] <tbs> hmm
 Hi everyone
[20:19] <wxl> o/
 (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?
 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
 (Photo, 1234x1079) https://i.imgur.com/JMRx23g.jpg
 @wxl [<wxl> also what version is this?], 19.10 64-bit
 @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?
 @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
 I solve it but running the installer without installing the bootloader and installing the bootloader alone
 Well I am performing them right now
 "Check finished: no errors found" press any key to reboot your system
[20:29] <wxl> this is the "check disc for defects?"
 @wxl [<wxl> this is the "check disc for defects?"], Yes
 @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
[20:32] <wxl> doesn't look like calamares supports it https://github.com/calamares/calamares/issues/517
 Well do you think if I install the ubiquity it could work?
 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
 The last option which pops into my mind is using an external hard drive
 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
 @wxl [<wxl> to be fair, i've never tested it on an eMMC], Yeah it's pretty tricky
 Okay it's done. Now let's see if it works
[20:58] <tbs> E: The repository 'http://ppa.launchpad.net/morphis/anbox-support/ubuntu eoan Release' does not have a Release file.
[20:58] <tbs> N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default.
[20:58] <tbs> N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.
[20:58] <tbs> i get this error, what to do?
[21:00] <wxl> find the author of the PPA and ask them
[21:00] <wxl> PPAs should be considered unsupported
[21:00] <wxl> FWIW he is online.. his nick is morphis
[21:01] <tbs> FWIW?
[21:02] <tbs> he s online where?

 Use the snap instead of the PPA
[21:34] <tbs> @aptghetto, how can i do that?
[21:42] <wxl> @aptghetto unfortunately it still needs the ppa https://github.com/anbox/anbox/blob/master/docs/install.md
 @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
[22:07] <Guest83669> hello
[22:09] <Guest83669> whats up gamers
[22:11] <kc2bez> This is the support channel for Lubuntu. did you have a question Guest83669 ?
[22:12] <Guest83669> oh, no. i just installed this and messing around
[22:12] <kc2bez> Ok we have an offtopic channel for chat.
[22:13] <kc2bez> !offtopic
[22:13] <Guest83669> okay thanks dude. sorry to disturb
[22:13] <kc2bez> no worries.
[22:13] <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?
[22:14] <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 ?
[22:16] <blamm00> sorry about the duplicate. kc2bez  Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS
[22:17] <blamm00> I have OpenOffice installed if a part of it can do image acquisition
[22:18] <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
[22:19] <kc2bez> it looks like simplescan should be installed.
[22:20] <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
[22:21] <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?
[22:22] <wxl> Guest83669: that's a word i reserve for touch interfaces
[22:22] <Guest83669> ooh gotcha
[22:23] <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
[22:24] <kc2bez> happy to help Guest83669
[22:25] <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.
[22:26] <blamm00> kc2bez, I have multiple version of the appropriate files from Canon, if thats helpful.
[22:26] <blamm00> versions*
[22:30] <kc2bez> That link takes me to drivers for a different printer model.
[22:32] <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.
[22:33] <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] <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
[22:34] <kc2bez> But when you follow the link there are no linux drivers there.
[22:35] <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
[22:36] <blamm00> I'm more than willing to try again though.
[22:38] <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
[22:39] <kc2bez> so if you have a .deb file you can install it with gdebi
[22:40] <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
[22:41] <blamm00> (i also have v3.10 which is what was available the last time I did this under lubuntu 14.04)
[22:48] <blamm00> kc2bez, gdebi?
[22:49] <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.
[22:51] <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.
[22:53] <blamm00> Whats a little unclears is which CUPS .deb file to install? There are 49 of them in those Canon packages
[22:57] <kc2bez> I am not sure blamm00 I haven't checked but usually the .Deb package takes care of that part for you.
[22:58] <blamm00> ok ill poke around for a bit more and see. I'll probably be back later
[22:59] <blamm00> ty kc2bez and genii
