z3vHey, I'm having issues with the lock screen. Its comes to a blank screen with unlocked, there is nothing but the cursor. CTRL+ALT+F1 does get me to the terminal, but how do I fix it?08:06
JimiMM0JTXhey yall. i'm currently installing 20.04 daily08:43
Unit193Nice!  Don't forget to report the test on the tracker.  You plan on using, or just testing?08:44
JimiMM0JTXi've been getting "system error" windows popping up on 18.04 for a few days, so I'm just gonna use 20.04 :)  I'm just using to access work computers and so some light data processing locally with perl08:45
JimiMM0JTXI have Lunarlinux on another partition if it al goes pair shaped, and two laptops to fall back on.08:46
JimiMM0JTXpear08:46
JimiMM0JTXhow do I report the test on the tracker08:46
JimiMM0JTX?08:46
Unit193http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/411/builds/209973/testcases if you have a launchpad.net account.08:49
JimiMM0JTXwow... can't believe I remembered my password first time!08:50
Unit193Awesome, thanks for testing and reporting.  FWIW, I've been using 20.04 for a little while now and not run into any major issues.08:52
JimiMM0JTXso I just check the case I did and hit "Passed with no bugs" if I see no bugs?08:52
Unit193Pretty much.08:52
JimiMM0JTXcan I just say, I love that I can use IRC and email etc in the browser while installing!08:53
JimiMM0JTXis the install log saved somewhere?08:57
JimiMM0JTXI assume seccomp sandbox violation is harmless?08:58
Unit193After installation, there will be logs that remain in /var/log/installer/08:59
JimiMM0JTXInstallation is complete... see you on the other side!09:04
JimiMM0JTXHi.  I'm now chatting to you from weechat within my fresh installation of Xubuntu20.04daily (downloaded a few days ago) on my SBC09:13

agenthexquick question about xubuntu and nvidia drivers:  i'm trying to install a package that will get me an OpenCL interface to some Tesla K20Xm cards I have.  the nvidia-430 package causes lightdm to loop and fail and loop more.  is there a better way to install nvidia drivers than the Additional Drivers panel?11:11
agenthexis there a nouveau package that will expose the GPU as an OpenCL device?  it is a few generations behind the current, so maybe there's a way to do this?11:24
diogenes_agenthex, /j #nouveau11:30
malekmaroc7Hello again! I tried the driver install but the hotspot still does not work11:59
malekmaroc7I get Connection Failure Error 212:01
malekmaroc7diogenes_12:05
diogenes_malekmaroc7, how you enable hotspot?12:07
malekmaroc7trough nm-connection-editor12:09
diogenes_then the drive has no AP support, try the ad-hoc instead of hotspot.12:11
diogenes_driver*12:11
agenthexupdate: i did not find nouveau support, but I was able to confirm that the xfce/lightdm fail loop can be aborted via ssh.  on the terminal, i can run clinfo and retrieve valid CL devices, so the driver is actually installed and working.  it just causes xfce/lightdm to repeatedly try to use the K20Xm as a video device, and it has no video output.  is there a way to blacklist a device or force the default onboard video to be the primary o12:15
agenthexutput, or should i just uninstall xfce (or reimage without a GUI)?12:15
malekmaroc7sorry diogenes_ Can you write again what you said? I needed to restart my PC12:47
malekmaroc7I used the "nm-connection-editor" command to set up a wifi connection for the hotspot btw12:51

StevenJayCohenwill 20.04 Xubuntu default to Wayland or X?18:56
diogenes_StevenJayCohen, xfce doesn't support wayland.18:58
StevenJayCohenOdd, I saw some bits about parts of XFCE now supporting Wayland, and I assumed that it was complete. So, will XUbuntu be the last of the X-default Ubuntu Flavours?18:59
diogenes_as long as xfce won't be supporting it.19:00
StevenJayCohenFound it "Catfish 1.4.12 adds support for running on Wayland." https://blog.xfce.org/19:01
StevenJayCohenThat's what confused me19:01
StevenJayCohenI just found a note on Debian's site that explained it. So, with the slow cycle on XFCE, it should be X for a while. Cool! Question answered.19:02
StevenJayCohenhttps://www.reddit.com/r/xfce/comments/4aeqda/xfce_wayland_support/19:02
diogenes_as far as i know, wayland is not even on a todo list for xfce team so not even on the horizon.19:04
SLeePy1234hey everyone, I read in a newsletter you were looking for someone to help out with Italian localization, is that still the case? I know someone who would be interested in contributing19:04
