[00:08] <Vata0_> is there a way to check if my hdd is encrypted
[05:40] <sorinello> Unit193, I did go into Live session and started installer from there. Same thing happend
[05:43] <Unit193> Ah, I see.
[06:19] <securerootd> Hello
[06:56] <xu-help91w> xfburn 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 thing
[06:57] <xu-help91w> Not a critical bug, but somewhat annoying :D
[07:03] <xu-help91w> My 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 capable
[07:03] <xu-help91w> driver?
[07:11] <well_laid_lawn> !bcm
[08:54] <Antoine-> What is the package intel-microcode for? Can I remove it?
[09:00] <brainwash> !info intel-microcode
[09:01] <brainwash> it's not an optional package I think
[09:01] <brainwash> removing it may remove the kernel
[09:05] <Unit193> Last I remembered, yeah it would.
[09:38] <dreamon> hello. 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] <dreamon> where can I change this behavior?
[09:48] <brainwash> dreamon: this? bug 1728236
[09:57] <dreamon> brainwash, Wenn ich das richtig verstehe sollte es nach → sudo apt install --no-install-recommends qt5-style-plugins → wieder passen?
[10:01] <dreamon> brainwash, sudo apt install --no-install-recommends qt5-style-plugins → fix it?
[10:01] <brainwash> dreamon: Das ist der Plan. Abmelden und erneut Einloggen nicht vergessen.
[10:07] <dreamon> brainwash, Also bei kdenlive hat es geklappt. Cherrytree ist immer noch hell theme.
[10:08] <brainwash> !info cherrytree
[10:11] <brainwash> dreamon: Wie wurde Cherrytree installiert?
[10:13] <dreamon> Das wurde von 18.04 installiert und mit Upgrade übernommen.
[10:13] <brainwash> Ich vermute als "snap" paket, oder?
[10:14] <brainwash> oder via PPA?
[10:15] <dreamon> Wenn dann damals ein PPA.. https://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Cherrytree/ warum nehmen die den einfach raus?
[10:15] <dreamon> https://github.com/giuspen/cherrytree → sieht nach gtk2 aus
[10:19] <brainwash> Scheint so..
[10:19] <brainwash> Greybird-dark sollte aber auch fuer Gtk2 Programme funktionieren.
[10:21] <dreamon> brainwash, Cool.. Der funktioniert in der TAT!
[10:21] <brainwash> Gut :)
[10:22] <dreamon> Die meinsten Dunkel Themes machen probleme.
[10:22] <dreamon> Hatte Blackbird gewählt.
[10:23] <dreamon> brainwash, Vielen Dank!
[10:24] <brainwash> Gerne :)
[10:39] <xu-irc79w> hello, 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?
[10:44] <brainwash> xu-irc79w: there is still opengl
[10:46] <brainwash> xu-irc79w: an old GPU is probably a big problem though (depending on what titles you plan to play)
[10:49] <xu-irc79w> is there a way to check which games would run without vulkan?
[10:50] <xu-irc79w> and 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 correctly
[10:50] <brainwash> vulkan is mainly needed for directx 12 games I think
[10:52] <xu-irc79w> i tried playing eso which worked fine, but doesnt render properly so its unplayable because u cant see most of the screen
[10:52] <brainwash> best if you give us some examples
[10:53] <xu-irc79w> i found out that apparently the d3d or whatever in wine is too old, and only vulkan can fix that
[10:54] <xu-irc79w> i 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 apparently
[10:55] <brainwash> I doubt that vulkan is needed
[10:56] <brainwash> it may be needed for best performance though
[10:56] <brainwash> which GPU is that?
[10:56] <xu-irc79w> 5800 mobility series
[10:56] <xu-irc79w> ancient
[10:56] <brainwash> ouch
[10:57] <xu-irc79w> strong af for what it is, but... ancient :D
[10:57] <xu-irc79w> are there any libraries or custom drivers i could install that help the card?
[10:58] <brainwash> but it does have directx 11 support
[10:58] <xu-irc79w> yep
[10:58] <xu-irc79w> eso 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 games
[10:58] <brainwash> I don't think there is any other driver other than the default "radeon" one
[10:59] <xu-irc79w> ye i could only find the latest legacy driver for those type of cards
[10:59] <xu-irc79w> how do i check what drivers i have installed?
[11:02] <brainwash> inxi --graphics
[11:06] <brainwash> so, the answer simply is that gaming works best with MS Windows in your case
[11:07] <xu-irc79w> yea but i despise windows, not going back to that spyware haha
[11:07] <xu-irc79w> as long as i can play anything im good, there are still native games after all
[11:08] <xu-irc79w> it tells me i have amd juniper and mesa
[11:08] <xu-irc79w> cant see directly what driver type i have, does that mean i have to manually install it?
[11:09] <brainwash> I'm pretty sure that the command tells you which driver is being used
[11:09] <brainwash> "Driver: blabla"
[11:09] <xu-irc79w> let me recheck
[11:10] <xu-irc79w> just says ati, radeon
[11:10] <brainwash> radeon is the driver name
[11:10] <xu-irc79w> ik yes
[11:11] <xu-irc79w> but how do i check the version?
[11:11] <xu-irc79w> like, so that i know if its the latest one for my card
[11:11] <brainwash> don't you have xubuntu 20.04?
[11:12] <brainwash> the driver version should be pretty much the latest then
[11:15] <xu-irc79w> i do, alright so i shouldnt worry about that?
[11:15] <xu-irc79w> i checked the drive rupdate, and it said all is well too
[11:15] <xu-irc79w> but im kinda sceptic since my card is a decade old lol
[11:20] <xu-irc79w> anyways thanks for ur help
[15:00] <Naoku> Good Morning
[15:01] <Naoku> I have a query, and it is that in the terminal it does not let me put the password
[15:04] <genii> The terminal will not show anything when you type passwords, but they are being entered.
[15:04] <kgb> Naoku: you sure that it's not just hiding the cursor?.. tried simply typing it in?
[15:05] <kgb> ^^
[15:07] <Naoku> I am new user in linux
[15:08] <kgb> Naoku: well, have you tried it now? .o0
[15:08] <Naoku> But, try what they tell me, and I don't know what I'm doing wrong
[15:09] <kgb> ugh, what are you trying to do, where are you?
[15:09] <kgb> *who's "they". :)
[15:12] <Naoku> I need to repair the error: /var/lib/dpkg/lock – open (11: Recurso no disponible temporalmente)
[15:14] <Naoku> I 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 nothing
[15:16] <diogenes_> Naoku, do you have synaptic package manager opened?
[15:18] <Naoku> IDK
[15:18] <diogenes_> then just reboot.
[15:19] <Naoku> reboot ? well, I try
[16:25] <genii> Sounds like unattended upgrade in background locking the file
[18:11] <max2020> I have downloaded the  xubunu iso file on a pen drive. It does not work on boot. Do I have to create a iso image, or it should work as it is? if so, ho do I create a iso  image, which program should I use?
[18:14] <Deano59> I love you, xubuntu.
[18:14] <Deano59> oh
[18:14] <Deano59> brb
[18:15] <diogenes_> !love
[18:15] <diogenes_> no such thing (
[18:15] <diogenes_> ubottu> Sorry, I don't know anything about love
[18:21] <coconut> +1
[18:26] <Deano59> xubuntu gave life to an old system :D I definitely love you. :P
[18:28] <diogenes_> Deano59, if you're happy and you have the possibility then consider a donation or at least spread the word about the system.
[18:29] <Deano59> already did but won't say the name, $5 so not much but still something. :)
[18:29] <diogenes_> great!
[18:29] <Deano59> I recommend xubuntu to everyone as it is... xD

[21:24] <onecalledgaius> I 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?
[21:30] <genii> July
[21:30] <genii> !ltsupgrade
[21:32] <genii> onecalledgaius: If you're in a hurry, use the method the mod suggest from command-line instead
[21:32] <genii> mod/bot
[22:49] <onecalledgaius> thank you!
