xu-help91wxfburn 0.6.2-1 (in Xubuntu 20.04) endlessly asks if I want to blank my DVD-RW, and when I press 'yes'--it opens a new window for blanking DVD-RW and again asks the same thing06:56
xu-help91wNot a critical bug, but somewhat annoying :D06:57
xu-help91wMy friend (which happens to be a newbie to Linux) faced a problem with his Broadcom Wi-Fi Adapter. All I know for now is his netbook's manufacturer is Lenovo. I've googled a lot and thought it was impossible to make his adapter work. But, all of sudden, he tried Manjaro and it worked. How did it happen? Why none of (any)-Ubuntus has a capable07:03

Antoine-What is the package intel-microcode for? Can I remove it?08:54
brainwash!info intel-microcode09:00

brainwashit's not an optional package I think09:01
brainwashremoving it may remove the kernel09:01
Unit193Last I remembered, yeah it would.09:05
dreamonhello. using 20.04 and I like dark themes. so I changed, but some apps are still old fashioned. I think its a kde thing. cherrytree and kdenlive are still silver/gray.09:38
dreamonwhere can I change this behavior?09:38
brainwashdreamon: this? bug 172823609:48
ubottubug 1728236 in xubuntu-docs (Ubuntu) "Should depend on qt5-style-plugins" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/172823609:49
dreamonbrainwash, Wenn ich das richtig verstehe sollte es nach → sudo apt install --no-install-recommends qt5-style-plugins → wieder passen?09:57
dreamonbrainwash, sudo apt install --no-install-recommends qt5-style-plugins → fix it?10:01
brainwashdreamon: Das ist der Plan. Abmelden und erneut Einloggen nicht vergessen.10:01
dreamonbrainwash, Also bei kdenlive hat es geklappt. Cherrytree ist immer noch hell theme.10:07
brainwash!info cherrytree10:08
ubottuPackage cherrytree does not exist in focal10:08
brainwashdreamon: Wie wurde Cherrytree installiert?10:11
dreamonDas wurde von 18.04 installiert und mit Upgrade übernommen.10:13
brainwashIch vermute als "snap" paket, oder?10:13
brainwashoder via PPA?10:14
dreamonWenn dann damals ein PPA.. https://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Cherrytree/ warum nehmen die den einfach raus?10:15
dreamonhttps://github.com/giuspen/cherrytree → sieht nach gtk2 aus10:15
brainwashScheint so..10:19
brainwashGreybird-dark sollte aber auch fuer Gtk2 Programme funktionieren.10:19
dreamonbrainwash, Cool.. Der funktioniert in der TAT!10:21
brainwashGut :)10:21
dreamonDie meinsten Dunkel Themes machen probleme.10:22
dreamonHatte Blackbird gewählt.10:22
dreamonbrainwash, Vielen Dank!10:23
brainwashGerne :)10:24
xu-irc79whello, i have a pretty old gpu that doesnt support vulkan. Am i basically at a loss when it comes to playing windows games through wine or is there anything i can do to still be able to play?10:39
brainwashxu-irc79w: there is still opengl10:44
brainwashxu-irc79w: an old GPU is probably a big problem though (depending on what titles you plan to play)10:46
xu-irc79wis there a way to check which games would run without vulkan?10:49
xu-irc79wand yea its a problem, but it was a pretty beefy gpu when it came out, so its enough for the type of games i play. I just run into problems iwht vulkan, since most stuff wont start or render correctly10:50
brainwashvulkan is mainly needed for directx 12 games I think10:50
xu-irc79wi tried playing eso which worked fine, but doesnt render properly so its unplayable because u cant see most of the screen10:52
brainwashbest if you give us some examples10:52
xu-irc79wi found out that apparently the d3d or whatever in wine is too old, and only vulkan can fix that10:53
xu-irc79wi wanted to try out some free mmorpgs to scratch that itch, but for literally evryone i see online that it needs vulkan, even stuff like WoW apparently10:54
brainwashI doubt that vulkan is needed10:55
brainwashit may be needed for best performance though10:56
brainwashwhich GPU is that?10:56
xu-irc79w5800 mobility series10:56
xu-irc79wancient10:56
brainwashouch10:56
xu-irc79wstrong af for what it is, but... ancient :D10:57
xu-irc79ware there any libraries or custom drivers i could install that help the card?10:57
brainwashbut it does have directx 11 support10:58
xu-irc79wyep10:58
xu-irc79weso for example ran completely fine, even under linux its just that the wine support is borked without vulkan, thats why im worried that it might happen with more games10:58
brainwashI don't think there is any other driver other than the default "radeon" one10:58
xu-irc79wye i could only find the latest legacy driver for those type of cards10:59
xu-irc79whow do i check what drivers i have installed?10:59
brainwashinxi --graphics11:02
brainwashso, the answer simply is that gaming works best with MS Windows in your case11:06
xu-irc79wyea but i despise windows, not going back to that spyware haha11:07
xu-irc79was long as i can play anything im good, there are still native games after all11:07
xu-irc79wit tells me i have amd juniper and mesa11:08
xu-irc79wcant see directly what driver type i have, does that mean i have to manually install it?11:08
brainwashI'm pretty sure that the command tells you which driver is being used11:09
brainwash"Driver: blabla"11:09
xu-irc79wlet me recheck11:09
xu-irc79wjust says ati, radeon11:10
brainwashradeon is the driver name11:10
xu-irc79wik yes11:10
xu-irc79wbut how do i check the version?11:11
xu-irc79wlike, so that i know if its the latest one for my card11:11
brainwashdon't you have xubuntu 20.04?11:11
brainwashthe driver version should be pretty much the latest then11:12
xu-irc79wi do, alright so i shouldnt worry about that?11:15
xu-irc79wi checked the drive rupdate, and it said all is well too11:15
xu-irc79wbut im kinda sceptic since my card is a decade old lol11:15
xu-irc79wanyways thanks for ur help11:20
NaokuGood Morning15:00

geniiThe terminal will not show anything when you type passwords, but they are being entered.15:04
kgbNaoku: you sure that it's not just hiding the cursor?.. tried simply typing it in?15:04
kgb^^15:05
NaokuI am new user in linux15:07
kgbNaoku: well, have you tried it now? .o015:08
NaokuBut, try what they tell me, and I don't know what I'm doing wrong15:08

kgb*who's "they". :)15:09
NaokuI need to repair the error: /var/lib/dpkg/lock – open (11: Recurso no disponible temporalmente)15:12
NaokuI go to the terminal, I enter the code that I read in a guide, and without the key being entered, it tells me an error, it tries again, often I put the key and nothing15:14
diogenes_Naoku, do you have synaptic package manager opened?15:16
NaokuIDK15:18

onecalledgaiusI apologize if i'm the millionth person to ask, but does anyone know when the new lts will be available for download and upgrade via the gui software updater?21:24
geniiJuly21:30
genii!ltsupgrade21:30
ubottuRegular upgrades from 18.04 LTS to 20.04 LTS will be enabled once 20.04.1 is released in late July. This delay helps to ensure that any lingering issues are resolved before people upgrade production systems. If you'd prefer to upgrade now, use sudo do-release-upgrade -d21:30
