| xu-help50w | Hi. Why doesn't vibe work? | 17:46 |
| xu-help50w | Hi. Why doesn't Viber work? | 17:46 |
| KBar | Hey and welcome. Can you be more specific? | 17:46 |
| tomreyn | is that a software? how do you tell it "does not work"? | 17:46 |
| KBar | In what way it doesn't work? | 17:47 |
| xu-help50w | installs without errors but does not turn on anymore | 17:47 |
| KBar | Info about your Xubuntu version, Viber's package format (.deb, flatpak, Snap, AppImage, source?) will greatly help. | 17:47 |
| KBar | xu-help50w: "anymore" — does that mean it worked fine before? | 17:48 |
| KBar | At some point in the past. | 17:48 |
| xu-help50w | version xubuntu 20.04.3 viber dev the newest | 17:48 |
| KBar | xu-help50w: so it's a Snap package? | 17:50 |
| xu-help50w | https://download.cdn.viber.com/cdn/desktop/Linux/viber.deb | 17:50 |
| xu-help50w | no, this is the official package from the viber website for ubuntu | 17:52 |
| KBar | xu-help50w: thanks. That's a deb package. How did you install it and has it ever worked? You said "does not turn on anymore", which suggest it worked some time in the past. Am I correct in this assumption? | 17:52 |
| KBar | *suggests | 17:52 |
| xu-help50w | wget http://download.cdn.viber.com/cdn/desktop/Linux/viber.deb | 17:52 |
| xu-help50w | sudo apt install ./viber.deb | 17:53 |
| xu-help50w | no, he never turned on | 17:54 |
| KBar | xu-help50w: can you try uninstalling it with `apt purge` and reinstalling it by double-clicking on it. | 17:57 |
| KBar | It will open the Software app and should do everything necessary. | 17:57 |
| xu-help50w | i tried reinstalling it many times via apt and via gdebi | 17:59 |
| xu-help50w | If I installed ubuntu 20.04.3 after installing viber, then it works, if after that I install sudo tasksel install xubuntu-desktop on top. Then he continues to work. | 18:02 |
| xu-help50w | How stable will such a version be and is it possible to do so? | 18:03 |
| xu-help50w | in version xubuntu 16.04 it worked but hung after two hours, vibera support said that we know but we can’t do anything | 18:08 |
| xu-help50w | I've done this a few times too, "can you try uninstalling it with `apt purge` and reinstalling it by double-clicking on it." | 18:09 |
| KBar | Thanks. | 18:10 |
| tomreyn | well if *anyone* can do something about ubuntu compatibility of a proprietary software, then it's the entity who provides that software. | 18:11 |
| xu-help50w | Can you please tell me how stable can Ubuntu work with a Xubunta installed on top? | 18:13 |
| xu-help50w | and how best to do it, remove the Gnome 3 completely or install Xubuntu together with it? | 18:15 |
| tomreyn | i think they use different login manager by default, possibly different graphics servers, too | 18:16 |
| tomreyn | if you want xubuntu, why not install xubuntu? | 18:16 |
| xu-help50w | I really like it and it is very convenient, but I need a vibe at work, and it doesn’t work in it, so I just didn’t give it to me | 18:18 |
| xu-help50w | viber | 18:18 |
| tomreyn | maybetry the appimage, if the .deb doesn'T work for you for unknown reasons. or try to get a better idea of why the .deb won't work for you on xubuntu. | 18:20 |
| xu-help50w | I tried appimage but could not start it, but how to understand why the vibe does not work, which logs to read or what should be done? | 18:22 |
| xu-help50w | viber | 18:22 |
| tomreyn | their support will need to tell you | 18:22 |
| tomreyn | since this software is not part of xubuntu | 18:22 |
| tomreyn | generally its a good idea to run a problematic software from a temrinal window and see what it outputs | 18:23 |
| tomreyn | and, yes, if it logs somewhere, inspect those logs, too | 18:23 |
| xu-help50w | how to start viber from a terminal window? | 18:24 |
| xu-help50w | I could not find its file there is some kind of library and that's it | 18:25 |
| tomreyn | dpkg -S viber | grep bin should hint on what the command is called | 18:26 |
| tomreyn | actually it seems to be /opt/viber/Viber | 18:27 |
| xu-help50w | I found this path, but there is a file just a library, I realized that it is not what you need | 18:29 |
| xu-help50w | how to run it in the terminal? | 18:30 |
| xu-help50w | how to open and work with the terminal I know | 18:30 |
| tomreyn | you should just need to type /opt/viber/Viber | 18:31 |
| tomreyn | and press enter | 18:31 |
| xu-help50w | well, thank you all very much, I'll try and write what happened | 18:32 |
| xu-help50w | installed clean xubuntu 20.04.3, did not even switch the language from English, installed viber, launched from the console | 19:16 |
| xu-help50w | aborted (core dumped) | 19:17 |
| tomreyn | xu-help50w: that's something you can report to viber support | 19:23 |
| xu-help50w | and where is he usually? | 19:25 |
| xu-help50w | dump | 19:26 |
| xu-help50w | it's strange that viber works on ubuntu, but not on xubuntu | 19:27 |
| xu-help50w | people say that vibera support answers that we do not have declared support for xubuntu, only ubuntu | 19:29 |
| xu-help50w | found a dump already go read | 19:31 |
