|---|---|---|
| jp | i serached on google but i only see solution to go to the programm manager but i don't have this | 21:15 |
| lubot | <FedeBosio> Which browser do you use? | 21:15 |
| jp | i use firefox | 21:15 |
| jp | but hte game is a stand alon programm i mean i don't use a web browser to play the game | 21:16 |
| lubot | <FedeBosio> Sorry, my mistake... I thought that because the game is online, but your're right... | 21:17 |
| jp | i'm able to reach the terminal but it can take few trial | 21:17 |
| lubot | <FedeBosio> Do you know if the game may be run from a terminal? Perhaps the game throws some kind of message there when it crashes | 21:18 |
| jp | i'v try xkill but xkill close programm bar and not the app | 21:18 |
| jp | hmm i run the throught an appimage | 21:18 |
| jp | i think there is a log when it bugs | 21:18 |
| lubot | <HMollerCl> killall -9 appname | 21:18 |
| lubot | <HMollerCl> you can get appname with top or htop | 21:19 |
| jp | but ... this time i wasn't able to go to the desktop and close it .é.. i neede to reboot | 21:19 |
| jp | ok | 21:21 |
| jp | i see but the programm name seems to be long | 21:22 |
| lubot | <FedeBosio> You can kill the process by PID too | 21:23 |
| jp | any application that I can install that could do almost the samething as ctrl+alt+suppr on a windows OS ??? | 21:23 |
| jp | how to kill by pid ??? | 21:26 |
| jp | i mean what is the command line | 21:26 |
| lubot | <FedeBosio> When I need to do it, I do it with`top`, press `k`, write your PID and then, Enter. | 21:28 |
| jp | ok thanks | 21:29 |
| lubot | <FedeBosio> You're welcome! | 21:29 |
| Dan100 | Hi. I tried installing Lubuntu 20.04 on my old computer but when I go for creating a new partition and formatting the disk, it says it's not possible | 21:39 |
| tomreyn | Dan100: i doubt it says "it's not possible". | 21:39 |
| tomreyn | what does it say? | 21:40 |
| Dan100 | The installation didn't manage to create a partition on the disk | 21:41 |
| Dan100 | That's the message | 21:41 |
| tomreyn | hmm, o don't know the lubuntu installer too well, but having the exact error message we can do a web search. | 21:42 |

| tomreyn | ok, that's something we can search for | 21:44 |
| tomreyn | possibly that's https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/calamares/+bug/1864787 | 21:45 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1864787 in calamares (Ubuntu) "Lubuntu failed install "sfdisk --force --append /dev/sda"" [High,In progress] | 21:45 |
| guiverc | Dan100, it's covered specifically in the release notes - see https://lubuntu.me/focal-1-released/ | 21:46 |
| guiverc | (Known Issues section) | 21:47 |
| Dan100 | I will read, ty for the moment | 21:48 |
| Dan100 | I didn`t get my solution | 22:40 |
| tomreyn | you may be missing this bit of information: "Calamares" is the installer. | 22:42 |
| guiverc | Dan100, what did you do? Note: the reboot step mentioned is required (it'll fail if you don't do where mentioned as the failure mucks something up..; logout & login may work too, I forget) | 22:42 |
