[06:28] <cabpa> hello, i would like to inquire about my problem with my Acer Swift 3 SF314-41 that the screen remains black after waking up from suspend. The CPU of this laptop is Ryzen 5 CPU and its graphics card is AMD Radion Vega 8. Kernel is 5.4.0-26-generic and Ubuntu verison is 20.04.1 LTS
[06:49] <diogenes_> cabpa, suspend/wake on Linux in general has always been troublesome, it will work correctly only if you're lucky to have a very well supported hw.
[11:32] <giordano_> hi, i can't get my xerox 6130n printer to print in color
[11:34] <pmjdebruijn> how did you configure it?
[13:12] <giordano_> following the installation procedure requested by ubuntu from the printer panel
[13:22] <pmjdebruijn> what I meant, as it configured as a postscript printer?
[13:22] <pmjdebruijn> did you find a driver that is called exactly like your printer?
[13:25] <giordano_> in practice, ubuntu already finds postscript.
[13:27] <giordano_> in practice, ubuntu already finds postscript.
[13:28] <pmjdebruijn> https://www.openprinting.org/printer/Xerox/Xerox-Phaser_6130N
[13:28] <pmjdebruijn> what happens if you print a color image? you get just a grayscale output?
[13:29] <giordano_> yes
[13:29] <giordano_> only grayscale
[13:32] <pmjdebruijn> and you're on xubuntu 20.04?
[13:32] <giordano_> ubuntu dde 20.04
[13:33] <tomreyn> mv giordano_ ../
[13:38] <giordano_> thing?
[13:40] <tomreyn> you're assking in the wrong place
[13:40] <tomreyn> * asking
[13:47] <giordano_> i installed ubuntu, xubuntu, lubuntu but all distros gave the same problem with the printer.
[13:47] <giordano_> if I remember correctly only Kubuntu recognized my printer.
[14:08] <pmjdebruijn> giordano_: regardless, if you're not running xubuntu, it's hard to convey any instructions
[14:09] <pmjdebruijn> the fact that it worked in kubuntu is rather surprising, given it uses the same infrastructure as the rest
[14:17] <giordano_>  giordano_: regardless, if you're not running xubuntu, it's hard to convey any instructions
 the fact that it worked in kubuntu is rather surprising, given it uses the same infrastructure as the rest
[14:18] <giordano_> something the others do not have and vicevers, in practice they are all lame.
[14:18] <giordano_> if you continue like this I don't see a good future for Linux.
[14:18] <giordano_> all this makes me increasingly clear about the philosophy of stave J. and to say that he was not wrong.
[14:18] <giordano_> anyway thanks for the attention that was not little.
[14:42] <pmjdebruijn> wether or not a single printer is hard or easy to get fully functional, is hardly predictive of Linux' future
[17:55] <wasabiharissa> hi guys
[17:55] <wasabiharissa> i ve go serious problem here
[17:56] <wasabiharissa> i upgraded my xubuntu 16.04 to 20.04

[17:57] <wasabiharissa> grub-rescue shows
[17:57] <wasabiharissa> i m on installation live usb atm
[17:59] <wasabiharissa> real story is: upgrading from xubuntu 16.04 to 20.04 made xubuntu unlaunchable then i went to windows to reinstall xubuntu from live usb. i may have deleted the grub partition while installing

[18:05] <wasabiharissa> ?
[18:35] <sorinello> Hello. Does anyobody have any idea why the thunderbird from the official repositories is version 68 ? The latest version is 78, which is like 10 versions ahead. version 68 is one year old
[18:47] <tomreyn> partially answered in #ubuntu
[18:49] <sorinello> tomreyn, thanks for answering. I will wait it on the update channels
[18:53] <tomreyn> sorinello: there are indeed several unfixed security issues in ubuntu's thunderbird according to https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/pkg/thunderbird.html
[18:54] <tomreyn> most of them should not impact thunderbird too much or at all, as long as you don't use html mail
[18:54] <tomreyn> it's still a sad state. but much of it is due to how thunderbird and firefox release software, as well as due to the complexity of those softwares.
[18:55] <sorinello> I see. so this might be the reason why there is an old version put out officially ?
[18:55] <xtao> with firefox the suggestion is frequently to use snap as well, but the snap version doesn't include widevine DRM so various sites don't work with it
[18:56] <sorinello> yeah, don't want to fire up a debate, but I prefer not to use snap
