| Optiplex980 | Hey guys I need some help with an Optiplex980 | 01:18 |
|---|---|---|
| Optiplex980 | I'm trying to install Xubuntu 19.10 and it keeps crashing during installation | 01:19 |
| Optiplex980 | I'm using a radeon 550 and an intel i5 | 01:19 |
| Bashing-om | Optiplex980: Have you verified the install menium: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/CDIntegrityCheck ? | 01:21 |
| Bashing-om | medium* | 01:21 |
| Optiplex980 | Im using the live boot menu right now | 01:21 |
| Optiplex980 | how would I verify the integrity of the medium? | 01:21 |
| Bashing-om | Optiplex980: ^^ the boot menu's "check disk for defects" option. | 01:22 |
| Optiplex980 | it just boots to a "try xubuntu" or "install xubuntu" screen | 01:23 |
| Bashing-om | Optiplex980: As soon as the bios screen clears A) MBR: hold any key; B) EFI: spam the escape key. | 01:26 |
| Optiplex980 | ok thanks! | 01:28 |
| Optiplex980 | I just verified the medium and it all checks out | 01:41 |
| Optiplex980 | I get an error when booting into safe graphics: | 01:41 |
| Bashing-om | !nomodeset | Optiplex980 | 01:42 |
| ubottu | Optiplex980: Systems with certain graphics chipsets may not boot properly out of the box. "Temporarily Add a Kernel Boot Parameter for Testing" as discussed at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBootParameters to add the "nomodeset" parameter there. | 01:42 |
| Optiplex980 | drm:amdgpu_init *ERROR* VGACON disables AMD kernel modesetting | 01:42 |
| Optiplex980 | how would I add that during an installation? | 01:43 |
| Bashing-om | Optiplex980: True that "nomodeset" disbales Kernel Mode Setting. We just need to know if you can boot with this parameter. | 01:44 |
| Bashing-om | disables* | 01:44 |
| Optiplex980 | Live environment crashed before I could see responses | 02:00 |
| Optiplex980 | Anyone got a solution for VGACON disables amdgpu kernel modesetting | 02:01 |
| Optiplex980 | keep in mind despite this error the installation will still boot and lets me get all the way through to install before hanging | 02:01 |

| SirRoach | I am brand spanking new to linux. I recently received a pc with Xubutu. As I received this pc thru a local Goodwill I am unable to contact the former owner. While I have figured out how to open it to the desktop I find my access to be limited. I am unable to install anything such as updates without being promoted for a password to do so. While I am | 04:11 |
| SirRoach | surprised as a novice I was able to backdoor the initial sec protocol I am not able to bypass this. It three any way I can reset the system to default?? | 04:11 |
| well_laid_lawn | part of the install process is to set a name and password for a user with admin rights. There is no defauult where passwords aren't needed to install software | 04:14 |
| well_laid_lawn | might be easier to just reinstall | 04:14 |
| well_laid_lawn | !install | 04:14 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall - See also !automate | 04:14 |

| csanyipal | Hi, | 08:51 |
| csanyipal | Hi, | 08:52 |
| csanyipal | The day before yesterday still worked. It is my smartphone. When I plug it in, an Icon appeared on my Xfce4 desktop so I can browse my phone. | 08:53 |
| csanyipal | This is gone now, I do not know what did I to get this. | 08:53 |
| csanyipal | Theicon does not shown any more after I plug in my smartphone. | 08:53 |
| csanyipal | How can i solve this issue? | 08:53 |
| csanyipal | The icon.. | 08:54 |
| astraljava | csanyipal: Is it an Android phone? If yes, can you check what it says on the phone, if you pull down the top bar and tap on "Android System - <something> USB", it should ask again for you to tap on it and once you do, present a list where one option is "File Transfer". | 09:03 |
| csanyipal | astraljava: It is an Android phone. Currently there is no Operating System on this phone out there. | 09:44 |
| csanyipal | Bye! | 10:09 |
| astraljava | I have no idea what was the outcome of those instructions. | 10:19 |

| csanyipal | Hi, | 11:57 |
| csanyipal | on my laptop I am using a card reader. I put into it a micro SD card and am trying to write on to it a ZIP file. | 11:58 |
| csanyipal | This process is long, and perhaps never will be completed. | 11:59 |
| csanyipal | What could be the problem here? | 11:59 |
| csanyipal | The ZIP file is 572704K big. | 12:00 |
| csanyipal | The uSD card is 8GB big. | 12:00 |
| csanyipal | If I start copy this file in the Midnight Commander, then if I try to open the uSD Card in Thunar, it is very slow, and never opens the uSD Card. | 12:03 |
| csanyipal | I tried to create a small text file on to this uSD card in mc and it works. | 12:05 |
| astraljava | csanyipal: You can test the speeds with which the device can be operated on your system by issuing the command `sudo hdparm -t /dev/<SDcardDevice>`. | 12:30 |
| astraljava | From there you can calculate roughly just how long it would take for a nearly 6GB file to be written. Mind you, those figures will be for reading. Usually, although with these kinds of media I'm not 100% sure, writing is even slower. | 12:31 |
| csanyipal | astraljava: Thank you! | 12:34 |
| astraljava | np :) | 12:37 |
| csanyipal | The 'sudo hdparm -t /dev/disk/by-uuid/45DF-1A18' command also hang for a long time.. | 12:54 |
| csanyipal | This is that uSD card. | 12:54 |
| csanyipal | on which the copy process keep for a while. | 12:55 |
| csanyipal | I can't interrupt it (the hdparm command above) even with Ctrl+C. | 13:00 |
| astraljava | csanyipal: You may need to resort to terminating or killing the process, instructions to such can be found: https://bit.ly/2SEO4Go | 13:08 |
| csanyipal | astraljava: Thanks! | 13:59 |
| csanyipal | Bye! | 13:59 |
| csanyipal | Hi again, I thought to say goodbye. But, the 'sudo apt autoremove' command stuck at 28%: | 14:06 |
| csanyipal | Haladás: [ 28%] [###################################......... | 14:06 |
| csanyipal | I think the cause of this is somehow the copy process to the uSD card. | 14:06 |
| tomreyn | csanyipal: maybe the sd card is broken? how old is it, how often do you use it? | 14:46 |
| tomreyn | which specification / class is it? | 14:46 |
| tomreyn | how is ti connected to your computer, directly by an installed sd card reader or by means of an external, usb connected, sd card reader? | 14:48 |
| csanyipal | tomreyn: The SD card is not broken, because I just used it in my smartphone. | 15:36 |
| csanyipal | It is a Kingstone 8GB card. I do not know it's Class. | 15:37 |
| csanyipal | It is connected to my laptop through laptop's Card reader: the laptops Card reader - a Samsung micro SD card adapter which fits in to laptop's card reader - and the Kingstone uSD card. | 15:38 |
| a731 | I am having opposite day issues. I installed Xubuntu 20.04 on my 2008 imac, and after adding working wifi drivers and rebooting the ethernet won't work | 15:54 |
| a731 | Does anyone have a clue on what could be happening? | 15:54 |
| lighterowl | what do you mean by "doesn't work"? does the interface not appear anymore at all? is the carrier not detected, perhaps? are there any kernel messages related to the card? | 15:58 |
| diogenes_ | a731, issues with 20.04 are addressed in #ubuntu+1 | 15:58 |
| lighterowl | oh. | 15:59 |
| * lighterowl hides in the corner. | 15:59 | |
| tomreyn | csanyipal: okay, maybe it's just a problem with the adapter or the card readeron your laptop then. :-/ did oyu check what's reported by "journalctl -f" (or "dmesg -w")? | 16:16 |
| tomreyn | sorry for the late reply, too | 16:16 |
| csanyipal | tomreyn: Indeed, there is an error: | 16:55 |
| csanyipal | mmcblk0: error -110 transferring data, sector 10659792, nr 1024, cmd response 0x900, card status 0xc00 | 16:55 |
| csanyipal | mmc0: sdhci: ADMA Err: 0x00000001 | ADMA Ptr: 0x000000023d8df200 | 16:55 |
| csanyipal | Sorry for the late reply. | 16:56 |
| tomreyn | csanyipal: so this suggests a media error. | 17:17 |
| tomreyn | csanyipal: it could also be with the reader / writer / adapter, though, this is not easily diagnosed unless you can cross test with another card which is the same product / same specifications. | 17:19 |
| csanyipal | tomreyn: Thank you for the explanation and for the help! | 17:24 |

| kuroiokami1 | Hi, is anyone here? | 23:13 |
| lighterowl | I'm here. | 23:14 |
| kuroiokami1 | Hi, I have a little problem that I don't know how to solve | 23:15 |
| kuroiokami1 | Mostly because I'm kind of a newbie on Xubuntu haha | 23:16 |
| lighterowl | okay. what's the problem? | 23:16 |
| kuroiokami1 | So, I installed Nautilus since I tested Ubuntu before and I really liked the file manager | 23:16 |
| kuroiokami1 | But now, when I try to open some files like PDFs or PNGs I need to click on "Open with" and then it will open | 23:17 |
| kuroiokami1 | Also, when I download JAR files (4 ex), I need to set it to executable if I want to open them with OpenJDK, even when I open the files on Thunar | 23:19 |
| lighterowl | sorry, I don't use Thunar. :( | 23:19 |
| lighterowl | I mean Nautilus. | 23:19 |
| kuroiokami1 | :/ | 23:19 |
| genii | !info exo-utils | 23:19 |
| ubottu | exo-utils (source: exo): Utility files for libexo. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.12.2-0ubuntu0.18.04.1 (bionic), package size 44 kB, installed size 161 kB | 23:19 |
| kuroiokami1 | what is that? | 23:20 |
| genii | https://askubuntu.com/questions/74534/set-nautilus-as-default-file-manager-in-xubuntu | 23:20 |
| genii | ..what you need to follow the directions on the site just posted | 23:20 |
| genii | If you don't use Thunar for anything at all, you can even just uninstall it. It will say it is also uninstalling xubuntu-desktop, but that doesn't actually remove any other applications | 23:24 |
| kuroiokami1 | thanks, i'll try the link's instructions | 23:26 |
| brainwash | the problem is that a double click on a file in Nautilus does not open it? | 23:26 |
| kuroiokami1 | yup | 23:26 |
| kuroiokami1 | pdf files ex. | 23:26 |
| brainwash | never seen that happen | 23:27 |
| kuroiokami1 | I have to click the 2nd mouse button, then Open with..., then select Atril, then Done | 23:27 |
| brainwash | assuming that you have a pdf viewer set as default app for pdf files | 23:28 |
| kuroiokami1 | And just THEN it opens | 23:28 |
| kuroiokami1 | It's selected as default | 23:28 |
| kuroiokami1 | It opens just right on Thunar | 23:29 |
| brainwash | right. that's odd. | 23:30 |
| brainwash | kuroiokami1: bug 1778069 | 23:32 |
| ubottu | bug 1778069 in exo (Ubuntu) "[xfce] nautilus don't open files if set as default file manager" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1778069 | 23:32 |
| kuroiokami1 | that's something that also happens | 23:33 |
| kuroiokami1 | do i have to update my xubuntu? | 23:34 |
| kuroiokami1 | or something?? | 23:34 |
| brainwash | maybe | 23:35 |
| brainwash | the linked bug is not fixed in 18.04 | 23:35 |
| brainwash | but you can easily fix it | 23:35 |
| brainwash | if you read through the comments | 23:35 |
| kuroiokami1 | there's something weird about this that I don't know why happens too | 23:37 |
| kuroiokami1 | When I open Nautilus on a terminal as sudo, it runs flawlessly | 23:37 |
| kuroiokami1 | It even shows my 2nd partition (Win10, may delete later) | 23:37 |
| kuroiokami1 | and my /home/ partition too | 23:38 |
| brainwash | could be that it reads different settings when you run it with sudo | 23:38 |
| kuroiokami1 | maybe | 23:38 |
| brainwash | in comment #8 I explain why the bug happens | 23:39 |
| brainwash | yeah, I already forgot about the bug and had to google it :) | 23:39 |
