DarkTrickThe installation dialoging is extremely slow03:21
DarkTrickE.g. after choosing Keyboard layout I need to way for 2 to 3 minutes to reach the next screen03:22
DarkTrickis this xubuntu specific or does installing from live CD come from Ubuntu?03:22
DarkTrickhm... it seems like ubuntu driven. The process called ubiquity03:29
geniiIt can also be that your USB port or stick is a bottlenck03:46
geniiI bought some "Philips" branded USB sticks at Best Buy maybe a month ago that were fake and getting something like 5Kbps transfer rates03:47
DarkTrickgenii, ah, and due to that the install process can get it's information only very slowly03:52
geniiYes03:53
geniiThis slowdown could also happen for other reasons. But at least it *is prgressing, if slowly03:55
SQhello03:55
SQhope you are having a nice time. I am an absolute newbie who is quite lost. I just installed xubuntu, before I had mint03:56
SQI was mainly just following the instructions of a friend. All day long I tried to install either windows 10 or xubuntu via USB03:57
SQBut was unable to do either because at the very end the grub file was missing and gave me a fatal error on both03:57
SQI went into the terminal before the last installation antempt and tried some commands to install grub03:58
SQand on the next restart it seems to be working. My friend is dead asleep now... and I need to work out if I did in fact get the installation through03:59
SQif anyone could answer me one or both of these two questions you-d be doing me a fabulous favor and rock my world04:01
SQ1> what ubuntu does xubuntu run_ how can I see this?04:02
SQ2. does anyone know if davinci resolve runs on xubuntu?04:02
Bashing-omSQ: 1) (x)ubuntu is a sister/flavour of the (u)buntu sysyem. xubuntu runs xfce as the desktop environmnet, whereas ubuntu runs GNOME. Yo see what the present kernel is run terminal command ' uname -r ' // 2) Yes; see: https://www.linuxuprising.com/2018/06/how-to-install-davinci-resolve-15-in.html for one instance.04:10
SQthanks04:13
SQ<304:13
Bashing-omSQ: :D Welcome to xubuntu .04:14
SQone more, maybe too dumb, question... is there a way to make sure my grup is working properly04:14
SQgrub04:15
SQI dont even know for sure if my installation finished succesfully04:15
SQas just before reboot after grub error I could use firefox a bit04:16
Bashing-omSQ: Lots of commands to see aspects of grub - sudo grub-probe -t device /boot/grub ; sudo grub-probe -t fs_uuid /boot/grub ; sudo lshw -C Disk -short. All these look sane ? But in general if systems boot - grub is not broke.04:20
SQIt has been a crazy day of so many reboots and reinstalations04:38
SQI-ve lost my mind04:38
SQhehehe! But I guess I just got to reboot now and see. Also, change my keyboard settings. Thank you so much04:40
Bashing-omSQ: We are here to help :D04:47
kotek14Hiya Bashing-om04:47
kotek14I'm back04:47
Bashing-omkotek14: Back is a good thing ?04:48
kotek14Bashing-om: depends04:48
kotek14Bashing-om: Are you by any chance familiar with JavaScript?04:48
Bashing-omkotek14: No I must admit that I am not - that might be a good thing.04:49
kotek14Bashing-om: I might agree with you - Python seems much more logical.04:50
Bashing-omkotek14: So far python and bash have met all my needs.04:51
