FurretUberHi, I need help with something a bit unusual: I'm searching the Xubuntu 14.04 ISO, but it does not exist on http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/xubuntu/releases/ Where could I find it?00:26
tomreynhmm indeed, those seem to be gone.00:47
Unit19314.04 went EOL, guess that's why.  Not even on the torrent tracker.00:48
tomreynUnit193: older xubuntu releases are at http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/xubuntu/releases/ though00:49
tomreynso just 14.04.* is missing00:49
tomreynor rather anything since 12.04.400:50
Unit19319.04 is there. :D00:50
tomreyn:-P00:50
guivercan annoucement was made giving reason for 'cleanup' for all release/flavors (august-nov); I forget why/when01:00
FurretUberIs it obtainable somehow? Booting the 12.04 live offers to upgrade to 14.04.6. Do 14.04.6 exists somewhere?01:00
* guiverc thinks https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-release/2020-October/005113.html maybe what I was thinking of01:02

lanjanHello, I have a bit of a weird problem in both Ubuntu and Xubuntu. Sometimes everything related to sound just stops working, and I need to reboot to fix it. I have no idea what could cause it :(10:31

psych094I had Windows 8.1 and Xubuntu 18.04 dual booted, it was a simple install of Xubuntu alongside Windows. I let the installer handle the partitioning and all. I then installed pm-utils and running the pm-hibernate command did hibernate the system.12:01
psych094Later I messed something up, not related to hibernating the system, and I needed to re-install the Xubuntu.12:01
psych094I installed more RAM into my laptop and so I wanted to switch my swapfile into a swap partition, but since I already had a separate home partition for the home directory, that is where I messed up when I joined the home partition with the root partition.12:03
psych094I wasn't able to log into the system anymore.12:03
psych094So I reinstalled the Xubuntu 18.04 OS and this time I set up a swap partition and decided to leave the home folder as is.12:04
diogenes_i'm already confused :)12:04
psych094Okay....12:04
psych094lol12:04
psych094I'll come back another time :v12:04
psych094I just want to hibernate my system.12:05
diogenes_but go ahead maybe someone else could follow through :)12:05
psych094I'm not able to do that now.12:05
psych094Previous installation I was able to hibernate my system when I had a swap partition, but it stopped when I change swap partition into a swap file.12:05
psych094So this time, so avoid not being able to hibernate my system, I decided to leave things with the swap partition, but I'm still not able to hibernate my laptop.12:06
psych094*to avoid12:07
psych094Was this simple? Or should I think things through again before continuing? o.O12:07
psych094Doesn't look like I messed up the last few texts/messages.12:08
psych094Anyway, is there a way to be able to hibernate my system without messing around with grub config files?12:10
diogenes_if you preserved the /home partitions during the countless reinstallations, i'd start with creating a fresh new user and try if it works there, if it doesn't then i'd do a clean reinstall exactly the way i did the first time when everything was working fine but, that's just me, maybe someone else has a better solution.12:10
psych094Oh, I did a backup before I messed, so reinstalling the OS wasn't a problem.12:10
psych094I'm just not able to hibernate my system despite using the same ISO file I did the last time it worked when I did have a swap partition.12:11

psych094Just changing my swap partition into a swap file was a mistake and I didn't come across any information that computers can't be hibernated using a swap file.12:12
psych094My reinstall has a swap partition now and I am not sure as to why my system continues to shut down instead of hibernate.12:13
diogenes_psych094, try: systemctl hibernate12:14
diogenes_see what it shows.12:14
psych094Hmm. I think I did try that. Not sure. It was like 6 months ago. :P12:26
psych094I just got started with IRC for help...12:26
diogenes_psych094, what do you mean? i mean to open a terminal, write in the terminal the following commad: systemctl hibernate (and hit enter and see if it hibernates)12:27
psych094I can't at the moment. This might trigger some people. I'm using Windows at the moment. I have university assignments to do, so not booted in Xubuntu right now.12:30
diogenes_eh dammit12:30
psych094But I did write that it down in a text file located in the Windows desktop, which I use as a reminder when I boot into Xubuntu. :P12:31

xubuntu39iHello everybody. I'm trying to get xubuntu installed on a preexisting partition of an external HDD drive. I've had an OS installed on it before, but now whatever I try to install it always tells me "check cable" and  OS not found. It says the same thing whether i try to install a live or full version. Any suggestions?18:18
xubuntu39iwhat error?18:18
