| gnouf1 | Hi | 00:01 |
|---|---|---|
| n-iCe | hi | 00:01 |
| gnouf1 | I have a little problem with my xubuntu, i just upgrade it from 19.04 to 19.10 and now have graphical problem, like multicolors artifacts in border of my windows | 00:03 |
| n-iCe | did you reboot? | 00:03 |
| gnouf1 | Yes, two times | 00:05 |
| gnouf1 | I try to upgrade to 20.10 | 00:05 |
| n-iCe | I would do a clean install | 00:05 |
| n-iCe | or do an update && upgrade | 00:05 |
| gnouf1 | Ok, i'll try it | 00:07 |
| Noboru55 | hello, i got a problem in my hard disk | 01:03 |
| Noboru55 | if i try to install the xubuntu it fails to create the ext4 filesystem | 01:03 |
| Noboru55 | if i just try to use the cfdisk | 01:04 |
| Noboru55 | i get very slow to change the options | 01:04 |
| Noboru55 | its like my hard disk is weird | 01:04 |
| Noboru55 | how can i check it ? | 01:04 |
| guiverc | Noboru55, I'd suggest checking SMART or the health stats of your drive; https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Smartmontools (boot a 'live' media so it's not in use, then you can use smartctl, or GUI tool to read health from drive electronics) | 01:10 |
| Noboru55 | ok i will see it | 01:14 |
| Noboru55 | its weird, if i try open gparted it takes long time | 01:14 |
| Noboru55 | i am already running live, cant install linux in hd | 01:15 |
| Xarizzar | If I might ask a question. If I have an environment variable with a separator (colon ":") in it, how would I go about using cd "$ENVIRONMENT_VAR"? Since the semicolons are still in the string, is this even possible? | 03:08 |
| Xarizzar | Whoops. I'm dumb. Please ignore what I asked. | 03:13 |
| Kryuna | Hi :) | 12:45 |
| diogenes_ | hi | 12:45 |
| Kryuna | just made the complete switch to Xubuntu yesterday | 12:47 |
| Kryuna | It's been awesome - I can still play Skyrim! Steam Play is amazing | 12:47 |
| diogenes_ | Kryuna, you've made a perfect choice! | 12:47 |
| Kryuna | Has anyone tried xubuntu on raspberry Pi? | 12:48 |
| Kryuna | I'm assuming it works just fine since numerous people have put Ubuntu on them, but I was wondering if there was a dedicated image for it, or if I need to install Ubunutu, then nuke the default GUI and replace with XFCE. | 12:52 |
| Noboru55 | hello | 13:02 |
| Noboru55 | someone can help me to check my hd ? | 13:02 |
| diogenes_ | Noboru55, ? | 13:02 |
| Noboru55 | i was running xubuntu 20. but i was testing the slax linux, so i tested and when i rebooted | 13:02 |
| Noboru55 | the grub was in rescue mode | 13:03 |
| Noboru55 | tried to install again the xubuntu and cant create ext4 filesystem | 13:03 |
| Noboru55 | gparted doesnt open | 13:03 |
| Noboru55 | if i try cfdisk, it is very slow to move between options | 13:03 |
| Noboru55 | i think i broke it | 13:03 |
| diogenes_ | i think so too, you can only try to completely format it. | 13:04 |
| Noboru55 | i deleted all partitions | 13:04 |
| Noboru55 | cfdisk create | 13:04 |
| Noboru55 | but in install...... error | 13:04 |
| diogenes_ | Noboru55, it's not enough to delete the partitions, it has to be zeroed. | 13:05 |
| diogenes_ | and that can take hours. | 13:05 |
| Noboru55 | how can i do it ? | 13:05 |
| Noboru55 | i am running a command for badblocks since yesterday | 13:05 |
| Noboru55 | here in liveusb | 13:05 |
| diogenes_ | Noboru55, sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdX bs=1M #replace X with the target drive letter. | 13:06 |
| Noboru55 | its weird, if i have a partition created, when i reboot the laptop, it takes a long time to enter bios or long time to select boot options, if i have no partitions created so it run fast, i mean i can enter in bios quickly | 13:06 |
| Noboru55 | here is sda | 13:07 |
| diogenes_ | so sda | 13:07 |
| Noboru55 | diogenes_ i happened when i created the slax boot, to create the boot i needed to run a boot. sh and that made something crazy :P | 13:07 |
| Noboru55 | diogenes_ i will do it! | 13:07 |
| Noboru55 | thank you... | 13:07 |
| diogenes_ | come with a feedback. | 13:07 |
| Noboru55 | better wait the other command ends | 13:08 |
| Noboru55 | the badblocks | 13:08 |
| Noboru55 | 916900% done, 11:17:08 elapsed. (9153/0/0 errors) | 13:08 |
| Noboru55 | 11 hours already | 13:08 |
| diogenes_ | yes, now you gonna have to wait long long time :) | 13:08 |
| Noboru55 | i can stop it | 13:08 |
| Noboru55 | no hope it will do something | 13:09 |
| diogenes_ | yes you can stop it. | 13:09 |
| Noboru55 | sometimes i wonder why am i so jerk | 13:09 |
| diogenes_ | happens to everyone, i was once experimenting with NetBSD and wiped all my data :/ | 13:09 |
| Noboru55 | sudo badblocks -wsv -c 10240 /dev/sda | 13:09 |
| Noboru55 | that i am doing | 13:10 |
| Noboru55 | diogenes_ better do the dd=zero ? | 13:10 |
| diogenes_ | Noboru55, try and see, at least that one cleans the drive completely. | 13:11 |
| Noboru55 | alright | 13:11 |
| Noboru55 | i think i will do it | 13:11 |
| Noboru55 | if works, works | 13:11 |
| Noboru55 | if doesnt, so.. its my guilt | 13:11 |
| Noboru55 | diogenes_ i tell u later what happened, thank you very much | 13:13 |
| diogenes_ | Noboru55, ok good luck! | 13:14 |
| Noboru55 | diogenes_ nothing | 15:13 |
| Noboru55 | still cant install xubuntu, error when creating filesystem | 15:13 |
| Noboru55 | ext4 | 15:13 |

| Noboru55 | thank you.. i will try this one | 15:22 |
| Noboru55 | lucky u understand my "english" | 15:22 |
| n-iCe | diogenes_: tried mxlinux? | 15:22 |
| n-iCe | do they have live? since mxlinux is based in antix that's why I ask | 15:22 |
| diogenes_ | n-iCe, of course i've tried and yes they have. | 15:23 |
| n-iCe | awesome | 15:24 |
| n-iCe | diogenes_: what do you use actually | 15:24 |
| diogenes_ | n-iCe, Debian currently and you? | 15:25 |
| n-iCe | Ubuntu stock. | 15:25 |

| Noboru55 | and i will try to install it in this hd | 15:34 |
| Noboru55 | ok.. lets see what happens | 15:34 |
| Noboru55 | diogenes_ thank you agian... | 15:34 |

| diogenes_ | Starting with Firefox Version 52 (released in March 2017), Firefox has limited support for plug-ins, and therefore will not run Java. | 15:36 |
| xu-irc98w | Yes | 15:43 |
| Noboru55 | diogenes_ hi again, installing now on hd usb | 16:15 |
| Noboru55 | diogenes_ but i noticed i cant disable my hd of laptop in bios.... and when running the live usb i see the internal hd showing i/o error on my screen | 16:15 |
| Noboru55 | when i boot the first time on my external hd, can i do something to linux ignore the internal hard disk ? | 16:16 |
| diogenes_ | Noboru55, you can disable fsck of HDD in fstab. | 16:19 |
| Noboru55 | mmm | 16:19 |
| Noboru55 | i will reserch for this later | 16:19 |
| Noboru55 | stil installing | 16:19 |
| diogenes_ | ok | 16:20 |
| Noboru55 | thanks | 16:20 |
| Noboru55 | diogenes_ working very very well.... | 17:33 |
| Noboru55 | takes more time to boot but.. working nice... sometimes better than before | 17:33 |
| Noboru55 | :D | 17:33 |
| diogenes_ | Noboru55, try the same with windows :) | 17:34 |
| Noboru55 | mmm... my hardware is weak for windows | 17:35 |
| Noboru55 | but if i need now i know its possible. :D | 17:35 |
| Noboru55 | sdb 8:16 0 465,8G 0 disk | 17:37 |
| diogenes_ | it's not only about the hardware, you just can do the same with windows, so if there was no linux, your PC would have turned into a waste of plastic and metal. | 17:37 |
| Noboru55 | it is the internal hd | 17:37 |
| Noboru55 | ah i got it | 17:37 |
| Noboru55 | yes.... if no hd the external could be usefull for win too | 17:38 |
| diogenes_ | i mean you can't do the same with windows* | 17:38 |
| Noboru55 | really ? | 17:38 |
| Noboru55 | thought i could | 17:38 |
| Noboru55 | but i will no try anyway :D | 17:38 |
| Noboru55 | not* | 17:38 |
| diogenes_ | if you install win on usb and start it from there it would take ages. | 17:39 |
| Noboru55 | ahhh | 17:39 |
| Noboru55 | yes... i tried once usb live windows | 17:39 |
| Noboru55 | lol. that was soooo... i do not know the word | 17:39 |
| Noboru55 | but something stupid | 17:39 |
| Noboru55 | i was playing supertuxkart, it runs ok | 17:41 |
| Noboru55 | as i said, i think the external is better than internal hd i had | 17:42 |
| Noboru55 | Thank you.. | 17:42 |
| diogenes_ | you're welcome. | 17:42 |
| Kryuna | does anyone use xburn? | 18:06 |
| Kryuna | I have an album of mp3 files that I would like to burn to a CD, and they burn successfully, but the tracks sound like a chipmunk when played back in a CD player. | 18:07 |
| Kryuna | the high pitched shrieky voice that is | 18:07 |
| Kryuna | any solutions? | 18:07 |
| Kryuna | I guess I'll try brasero for now but I like the simplicity of xburn | 18:08 |
| Kryuna | and now that I've opened brasero - it looks oddly similar to xburn :( | 18:09 |
| diogenes_ | Kryuna, now i've got to come across someone who still burns CDs :) | 18:10 |
| diogenes_ | Kryuna, but try to burn at the lowest speed. | 18:10 |
| Kryuna | I tried that already :( | 18:10 |
| Kryuna | and it's not the files either, i've played them back and they sound fine. | 18:11 |
| Kryuna | also, I've tried a different type of CD-R. | 18:11 |
| jdwwatts | I think It might be tweakable | 18:11 |
| diogenes_ | Kryuna, maybe CD+R? | 18:12 |
| Kryuna | I'm going to see if brasero has any luck | 18:13 |
| Kryuna | it's burning very quickly - even at the slowest speed (x10) | 18:13 |
| diogenes_ | isn't x2 the lowest? | 18:13 |
| Kryuna | not that I could see | 18:14 |
| Kryuna | well brasero got it | 18:16 |
| Kryuna | I 'm not sure what the difference was between the applications - they both look pretty similar, but I just left settings at default in brasero and it works | 18:16 |
| Kryuna | maybe it was the actual cd - r I was using | 18:18 |
| Kryuna | because the first two I burnt were ONN (generic) CDs, but the third try was a different CD. | 18:18 |
| xu-irc95w | Hello! | 18:27 |
| xu-irc95w | Somebody could help me ? | 18:30 |
| jdwwatts | what happened | 18:30 |
| xu-irc95w | i don't know if i should hide my ip or not on irc ? | 18:30 |
| jdwwatts | from what? | 18:31 |
| Kryuna | :O | 18:31 |
| xu-irc95w | could you read my ip? | 18:31 |
| xu-irc95w | y or n ? | 18:32 |
| jdwwatts | there was a address whenyou logged in but that can be manipulated can't it ? | 18:33 |
| DrKK` | yes I can read your IP | 18:34 |
| DrKK` | if you want to block the IP, | 18:34 |
| DrKK` | you need a "cloak" | 18:34 |
| DrKK` | go to the #freenode channel and ask for a cloak, but you first need to be authenticated with nickserv | 18:34 |
| xu-irc95w | Ok, thank you very much ! | 18:34 |
| xu-help19w | hi.. | 21:21 |
| c0cc0a | hi! I don't know if someone can help me out with an issue I'm having with Xubuntu 20.04 and raspberry pi 4. It keeps freezing. | 22:17 |
| Maxwell | Um. Hello. If someone would be willing to help me I'd appreciate it. | 22:57 |
| Maxwell | See I am trying to access the store but I'm not sure where it is. (I know it's not called the store, but Idk what term it's called.) | 23:04 |
| Unit193 | 'Software' or something perhaps? | 23:12 |
| n-iCe | hi | 23:14 |
| n-iCe | software center | 23:14 |
| Maxwell | I tried both "software updater" and "software and updates" Crazy thing is I found it once, but I cant find it again for some reason. The other one just says all the software I got | 23:14 |
| Maxwell | Where would software center be? | 23:14 |
| n-iCe | in your menu | 23:15 |
| Maxwell | Yeah I searched there. I typed software and I only found the two options I mentioned. | 23:15 |
| n-iCe | sadly I'm not running xubuntu right now. | 23:15 |
| Unit193 | You could check if the package or snap is installed? | 23:16 |
| Maxwell | Give me one second please and I'll do that. | 23:16 |
| Maxwell | Its asking to reset my computer. One moment. | 23:22 |
| Unit193 | ...Huh? | 23:24 |
