DarkTrick | The installation dialoging is extremely slow | 03:21 |
---|---|---|
DarkTrick | E.g. after choosing Keyboard layout I need to way for 2 to 3 minutes to reach the next screen | 03:22 |
DarkTrick | is this xubuntu specific or does installing from live CD come from Ubuntu? | 03:22 |
DarkTrick | hm... it seems like ubuntu driven. The process called ubiquity | 03:29 |
genii | It can also be that your USB port or stick is a bottlenck | 03:46 |
genii | I bought some "Philips" branded USB sticks at Best Buy maybe a month ago that were fake and getting something like 5Kbps transfer rates | 03:47 |
DarkTrick | genii, ah, and due to that the install process can get it's information only very slowly | 03:52 |
genii | Yes | 03:53 |
genii | This slowdown could also happen for other reasons. But at least it *is prgressing, if slowly | 03:55 |
SQ | hello | 03:55 |
SQ | hope you are having a nice time. I am an absolute newbie who is quite lost. I just installed xubuntu, before I had mint | 03:56 |
SQ | I was mainly just following the instructions of a friend. All day long I tried to install either windows 10 or xubuntu via USB | 03:57 |
SQ | But was unable to do either because at the very end the grub file was missing and gave me a fatal error on both | 03:57 |
SQ | I went into the terminal before the last installation antempt and tried some commands to install grub | 03:58 |
SQ | and 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 through | 03:59 |
SQ | if anyone could answer me one or both of these two questions you-d be doing me a fabulous favor and rock my world | 04:01 |
SQ | 1> what ubuntu does xubuntu run_ how can I see this? | 04:02 |
SQ | 2. does anyone know if davinci resolve runs on xubuntu? | 04:02 |
Bashing-om | SQ: 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 |
SQ | thanks | 04:13 |
SQ | <3 | 04:13 |
Bashing-om | SQ: :D Welcome to xubuntu . | 04:14 |
SQ | one more, maybe too dumb, question... is there a way to make sure my grup is working properly | 04:14 |
SQ | grub | 04:15 |
SQ | I dont even know for sure if my installation finished succesfully | 04:15 |
SQ | as just before reboot after grub error I could use firefox a bit | 04:16 |
Bashing-om | SQ: 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 |
SQ | It has been a crazy day of so many reboots and reinstalations | 04:38 |
SQ | I-ve lost my mind | 04:38 |
SQ | hehehe! But I guess I just got to reboot now and see. Also, change my keyboard settings. Thank you so much | 04:40 |
Bashing-om | SQ: We are here to help :D | 04:47 |
kotek14 | Hiya Bashing-om | 04:47 |
kotek14 | I'm back | 04:47 |
Bashing-om | kotek14: Back is a good thing ? | 04:48 |
kotek14 | Bashing-om: depends | 04:48 |
kotek14 | Bashing-om: Are you by any chance familiar with JavaScript? | 04:48 |
Bashing-om | kotek14: No I must admit that I am not - that might be a good thing. | 04:49 |
kotek14 | Bashing-om: I might agree with you - Python seems much more logical. | 04:50 |
Bashing-om | kotek14: So far python and bash have met all my needs. | 04:51 |
