[02:59] <pongal> Hello guys, Could someone help me why I am not able to join the ubuntu channel. Whenever I try, I get autojoined to ubuntu-unregged room
[03:01] <Unit193> pongal: You must be registered and identified with services to join #ubuntu.
[03:02] <pongal> @Unit193, I registered to freenode
[03:02] <pongal> I am pretty new to IRC and linux in general
[03:02] <pongal> and I am using hexchat
[03:02] <Unit193> pongal has NOT COMPLETED registration verification  Check your email.
[03:03] <pongal> oh ok, will check. thank you.
[03:03] <Unit193> Sure thing.
[03:03] <pongal> also, do you guys use vim ? I would like to learn it, but I am worried that I may not be able to switch between vim and normal typing when I am on a different computer
[03:03] <Unit193> 'vi' should always be avilable.
[03:04] <pongal> @Unit193, I meant on windows machine at work
[03:04] <pongal> or on some one else's computer
[03:04] <pongal> @Unit193, I verified it. thank you.
[03:04] <Unit193> \o/
[03:06] <pongal> @Unit193, Are there any easy ways to lower cpu temperature. Mine hovers at around 51C. I know that running only essential programs is good, but any tips?
[03:06] <Unit193> Power save mode or somesuch?
[03:07] <pongal> is there a power save mode ?
[03:08] <pongal> @Unit193, Can I switch from ubuntu to Xubuntu easily?
[03:09] <Unit193> Might be easier to re-install so you don't have a bunch of cruft, but you can `sudo apt install xubuntu-desktop^`
[03:09] <pongal> ok.
[03:10] <pongal> @Unit193, will there be considerable difference in performance between ubuntu and xubuntu? I am on a relatively good system i7 8th gen, 16 gb ram, 4gb graphics card.
[03:12] <Unit193> I'd imagine a bit, but I haven't used Ubuntu since 6.04. :)
[03:13] <pongal> I am just looking at a youtube video to learn vim
[03:13] <pongal> I want to switch to Ubuntu/xubuntu from my windows permanantly
[05:33] <xu-irc46w> currently i am using xubuntu 18.04 lte , can i upgrade to latest ubuntu without formating and keeping my old data
[05:34] <xu-irc46w> latest xubuntu version 20.04
[05:35] <xubuntu87i> Hi guys. I'm trying to install Xubuntu on an old macbook pro but it keeps saying "Failed to create a file system" The ext4 file system creation in partition 2 failed
[05:36] <diogenes_> xu-irc46w, if you have a separate /homa partition then you can install from a usb drive but the upgrade won't be available until july.
[05:37] <xu-irc46w> that means we have to freshly installed if we want now
[05:37] <diogenes_> yes
[05:37] <xu-irc46w> one more question pls
[05:41] <xu-irc46w> i have checked and see there are partition for home and xubuntu, now if i freshly installed on this, does my home folder will be safe

[05:45] <xu-irc46w> what is this
[05:45] <diogenes_> xu-irc46w, you didn't do what i asked (
[05:47] <xu-irc46w> sorry i didnot get . i run the command and see that there are partiions which i pasted
[05:48] <diogenes_> what command you ran?
[05:48] <xu-irc46w> lsblk | nc termbin.com 9999
[05:48] <well_laid_lawn> that comman would have returned a url
[05:49] <xu-irc46w> click open the url, will get driver details
[05:49] <diogenes_> and i asked for the url link itself.
[05:50] <xu-irc46w> https://termbin.com/ys4d

[05:56] <Krishna87>  Hi
[05:57] <diogenes_> !hi | Krishna87
[05:57] <xu-irc46w> ok thanks a lot for your kind help
[05:57] <diogenes_> xu-irc46w, you're welcome.
[05:57] <Krishna87> Xubuntu 20.04 has been amazing OOTB.
[05:58] <Krishna87> But on FDE, I don't see the password field at all. There is a Xubuntu logo in a black screen.
[05:59] <Krishna87> When I start typing though, I see the characters are being registered but without the usual field borders around them.
[05:59] <Krishna87> Was that intentional?
[06:04] <diogenes_> Krishna87, if you log out do you see the usual password/login dialog?
[06:04] <xu-irc46w> diogenes_ one more favour, i just wanted to install sound card installation software , is it possible. actually when using windows10 it was amazing sound control from that interface. Link is given below.
[06:06] <diogenes_> Krishna87, this is how it should look: https://i.imgur.com/JjoKdX5.png
[06:06] <xu-irc46w> i  want to know how to install in xubuntu    https://www.realtek.com/en/component/zoo/category/pc-audio-codecs-high-definition-audio-codecs-software
[06:08] <well_laid_lawn> !realtek
[06:18] <xu-irc46w> ubottu this is for wifi but i want for sound card of realtek make
[06:19] <xu-irc46w> any graphical user installation is available other than terminal installation!!
[06:20] <diogenes_> xu-irc46w, you use pavucontrol for audio stuff.
[06:21] <xu-irc46w> just one question, will my sound experience be improved upon intallation of realtek software
[06:23] <xu-irc46w> diogenes_ i have already that pavucontrol in the name of pulse audio volume control but it is not upto the mark
[06:56] <xu-irc7w> will my sound experience be improved upon intallation of realtek software in xubuntu
[08:33] <pmjdebruijn> brainwash: because it's the "new" way of starting stuff in session, but that does assume using ssytemd in a first place
[08:34] <pmjdebruijn> as much as I have mixed feelings about many aspects of systemd
[08:34] <pmjdebruijn> it's rather nice to have able to query status of some user session daemon though
[08:34] <pmjdebruijn> and have logging in a standardized way
[08:34] <pmjdebruijn> but /etc/xdg/autostart works
[11:40] <Stabington> Glitchy desktop on amdgpu still a thing 20.04?
[11:47] <abtm> fyi, the existing help bug found in libreoffice on 20.04, extends even after upgrading to the newest version of libreoffice from the ppa.
[11:47] <abtm> that is true even if I first fully uninstall libreoffice and help and then reinstall it
[12:18] <Stabington> Still no super key to open whisker menu D:
[12:49] <xu-help71w> hello
[12:50] <xu-help71w> can u pls support me for installing wireless wifi adapter model RTL8188FTV
[12:51] <diogenes_> xu-help71w, look in driver manager.
[12:52] <xu-help71w> ok thank u so much
[12:53] <diogenes_> is there available driver?
[12:53] <xu-help71w> im checking
[12:58] <lightero1l> guess not
[14:15] <movahhed> hi how to find MAC address

[14:26] <coconut> Does xfce dekstop come with the same sys-tray circumstances as mate? ( https://ubuntu-mate.org/images/blog/eoan/mate-optimus-19.10.1.png )
[14:27] <coconut> for the optimus package i believe it is?
[14:29] <coconut> or is there another way of configuring this from the terminal ?
[14:30] <brainwash> coconut: out-of-the-box?
[14:30] <coconut> brainwash, yeah
[14:32] <brainwash> no idea
[14:32] <coconut> lol
[14:32] <brainwash> you should be able to install it though
[14:33] <brainwash> the package repository is shared across all Ubuntu variants
[14:33] <coconut> i was thinking like that too...
[14:33] <brainwash> and that is only a screenshot
[14:34] <brainwash> with no details about what exactly this tray icon is
[14:35] <brainwash> https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2019/09/nvidia-optimus-linux-switching-applet
[14:37] <brainwash> package name is "mate-optimus"
[14:37] <brainwash> !info mate-optimus
[14:41] <coconut> i checked and there is no "xfce-mate" or anything like it in the repo. But there is "bumblebee-nvidia" package.
[14:41] <coconut> so probably i can still do so
[14:42] <brainwash> no, you install mate-optimus
[14:42] <brainwash> https://packages.ubuntu.com/focal/mate-optimus
[14:42] <brainwash> it does no seem to depend on MATE
[14:45] <coconut> i guess i get lucky
[14:46] <coconut> thnx brainwas
[15:28] <xu-help4w> Hi hope someone can throw some light on a font issue I'm having after upgrading xubuntu to 20.04, ie my system fonts are just blocks
[15:36] <sorcerer> u get the same problem when opening terminal?
[15:36] <sorcerer> i got that problem as well
[15:36] <v1adimir> xu-help4w: maybe (?!) update-locale, or what's that other CMD..
[15:37] <xu-help4w> nothing in terminal, or open applications etc, just system wide font rendering, I can't seem to adjust them from a terminal either
[15:38] <coconut> xu-help4w, hi. i cannot help, but are you using a high-dpi screen perhaps?
[15:39] <xu-help4w> not hi dpi all icons are normal, it's just the font
[15:39] <coconut> i see
[15:39] <v1adimir> perhaps gnome-tweak-tool can fix it, when just configuring Font settings from there? unless it's just in "screen" like coconut says
[15:40] <xu-help4w> does gnome tweak even work in xfce4?
[15:40] <v1adimir> .. after an update, so maybe just True Type got messed up??
[15:41] <v1adimir> font-manager is unable to repair nothing, right?..
[15:42] <xu-help4w> I can't use font manager, as it's using the system fonts, I can't use Thunar either to reset the font cache as I can't read the font!
[15:43] <v1adimir> oh, wow, ok.. hm. :f
[15:45] <v1adimir> xu-help4w: was your locale something other than (the default) en_US, or en_GB is that how come it's a mess now?
[15:46] <xu-help4w> my locale was en-gb before upgrading
[15:48] <v1adimir> this page https://ubuntu-mate.community/t/how-to-reset-fonts-to-defaults/5920 says that we could "reset all system fonts", by: sudo apt-get install --reinstall --purge fontconfig fontconfig-config
[15:50] <v1adimir> some more (@https://askubuntu.com/questions/609515/what-is-the-default-font-for-xubuntu-terminals), "factory defaults" can be restored by removing the corresponding config file: rm ~/.config/xfce4/terminal/terminalrc
[15:50] <xu-help4w> I tried something similar a little earlier, but that was for the gnome desktop, will try though
[15:51] <xu-help4w> I found the Factory defaults one, it didn't do anything
[15:51] <v1adimir> or @https://forum.xfce.org/viewtopic.php?id=10074 "to reset terminal settings you have to remove .config/xfce4/terminal/terminalrc"
[15:51] <v1adimir> bt that's prolly not what you need, blah
[15:57] <xu-help4w> Just had a look at the photo in the last link & it's not what I've got, forgot to say thanks for helping v1adimir, appreciate it
[15:58] <v1adimir> all good!..:) hope we (all :)) can solve it, though!
[16:01] <xu-help4w> Me too,  I've just done the suggestion from the ubuntu mate link you sent me, I'm going to log out & back in to see if it works, back in a min
[16:03] <millz> ok v1adimir I'm back it didn't work
[16:04] <v1adimir> yea! :( thought so, dang.
[16:04] <v1adimir> err, did you log-out session.. I mean, it probably has been logged out (default behavior, right)
[16:06] <millz> I'd already tried most of the things I knew of and other's I have found before coming on the channel, yes logged out and back in, tried rebooting not any help.
[16:35] <xu-help0w> Hello from Austria! I am new to the Linux World and i have a question...how can i connect my Printer. There are some errors like "libtiff4" is not installed but libtiff5 is installed
[16:40] <millz> Printers usually get detected in Xubuntu for me by first plugging them in and then switching them on, a dialog will open up offering to configure the printer, I haven't had problems with printer in Linux for ages, if it's a canon you may get issues.
[16:52] <xu-irc40w> Does upgrade work for 19.10 -> 20.04?  Been a week since release and still not prompting for update.  Do I need to do a fresh install?
[16:54] <millz> I did an upgrade myself, I wasn't prompted for one, and now I'm having system font rendering issues which I just can't cure, I may have to do a fresh install for the first time in four years.
[16:54] <coconut> xu-irc40w, yes it does work, but the upgrade path is not officially rolled out yet. See here for details: https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2020/04/how-to-upgrade-to-ubuntu-20-04
[16:56] <coconut> personally i would wait with upgrading (although i do have 20.04 here myself)
[17:00] <xu-help0w> @millz yes it's an canon mg5250...
[17:06] <xu-irc40w> interesting, didn't know of -c option to do-releasy-upgrade
[17:06] <xu-irc40w> thanks!
[17:07] <xu-irc40w> oddly -c isn't in the man pages
[17:09] <coconut> oh, that is a bug i guess!
[17:11] <coconut> xu-irc40w, i don't know if you're willing, but -> https://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/reporting_bugs.html
[17:16] <coconut> oh... do-release is not part if the linux pages there
[18:01] <xu-irc83w> Hi, my scroll speed sensitivity are way to high -- where do I change?
[18:02] <xu-irc83w> On my trackpad
[18:05] <diogenes_> xu-irc83w, here: https://i.imgur.com/47NzUUc.png
[18:21] <xu-irc68w> hello im having a big problem, my mouse keeps disconnecting for like half a second every minute or so. I disabled auto suspend with the powertools programm as well as manually (when i check it it is set to -1) but it still keeps on disconnecting, making everything hassle.
[18:22] <xu-irc68w> its a wired g9x so i cant install the logitech gaming software, because its not supported by linux
[18:22] <xu-irc68w> its really annoying and the lights go out and on again every time too, when the mouse isnt in use its even as often as every 10 seconds or so...
[18:22] <xu-irc68w> any ideas?
[18:24] <diogenes_> xu-irc68w, you could try xserver-xorg-input-synaptics.
[18:24] <xu-irc68w> whats that?
[18:26] <diogenes_> another driver but wait sorry i missunderstood, that's for touchpad.
[18:27] <xu-irc68w> its a wired logitech g9x gaming mouse
[18:27] <xu-irc68w> is there another way of checking if auto suspend is really turned off? i only found a "cat" command that returns -1
[18:28] <diogenes_> if it's a new mouse you might try a newer kernel.
[18:29] <xu-irc68w> its an incredibly old mouse
[18:29] <xu-irc68w> like, a decade old
[18:29] <xu-irc68w> like i said, i cant even install the driver software since it doesnt run under linux
[18:29] <xu-irc68w> never had problems with it and under windows it ran perfectly
[18:38] <xu-irc68w> any help is appreciated, i really cant game with this nonsense
[18:47] <xu-irc68w> anyone?
[20:14] <sdsd> i have downloaded xubuntu 20.04, want to varify iso , pls help
[20:18] <sumitroyssss> any one pls help how to varify downloaded iso of xubuntu
[20:23] <genii> sumitroyssss: In a console, cd to the directory where the iso image is, and issue: sha256sum -b *.iso         ... and then compare the result to what is found here: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/20.04/release/SHA256SUMS         ( this assumes you got the default 64bit iso and not some other file instead)
[20:29] <sumitroyssss> pls elobarete i am novic here
[20:46] <xu-irc78w> can you please name software to create bootable usb for xubuntu
[20:52] <xu-irc78w> pls
[20:52] <v1adimir> Rufus 3.10 Changelog lists: "Improve support for Ubuntu 20.04" (Neat!..:)); https://rufus.ie/
[20:53] <v1adimir> xu-irc78w: LOL, I didn't read that you need it ^^ Rufus 3.10, https://rufus.ie/
[20:54] <v1adimir> .. talk about coincidence! xD
[20:56] <xu-irc78w> and how to check downloaded iso
[20:59] <well_laid_lawn> !md5
[21:03] <v1adimir> yeah, MD5 is usually enough (it's built into Windows 10 Explorer, btw.)
[21:03] <xu-irc78w> ubottu could you please and expected data consumption for varifying the iso as i have to under download some files
[21:04] <xu-irc78w> expected data consumption for varifying iso file
[21:05] <well_laid_lawn> no data will be consumed verifying the iso
[21:07] <xu-irc78w> thanks
[22:18] <xu-irc41w> Ciao
[22:19] <xu-irc41w>  ho appena installato xubuntu e sono praticamente nuovo...
[22:20] <xu-irc41w> ciao
[22:42] <sapientlion> Hello! I need some help with 20.04 release. I would like to upgrade to that version, but every time i run "do-release-upgrade" it returns "No new releases found". What's the issue here?
[22:44] <well_laid_lawn> for 18.04lts the 20.04lts shouuld be available in une I believe
[22:44] <well_laid_lawn> for 18.04lts the 20.04lts shouuld be available in June I believe
[22:46] <sapientlion> Sorry, i didn't say which version i'm currently using: it's 19.10. Is it universal? Like 18.04 -> 20.04.1 and 19.10 -> 20.04.1?
[22:48] <housecat> 19.10 -> 20.04 upgrades should be enabled rather sooner
[22:48] <housecat> in the meantime, sudo do-release-upgrade -d would work
[22:49] <housecat> it'll go on about it being a development version but it's not
[22:49] <housecat> but yeah, they tend to wait a bit after release before doing upgrade enablement to shake out any bugs
[22:51] <sapientlion> Interesting. Thank you for your help!
