| cloudcell | hello! does xubuntu create a fat32 disk during installation? (I installed windows side by side, and was wondering if this was windows' doing) | 06:37 |

| rfm | cloudcell, looks like the efi partition, either windows or ubuntu would have made one. you do want to have one... | 07:22 |
| cloudcell | ok, rfm, so it's the partition that bios uses to find the bootloader, correct? | 07:23 |
| cloudcell | i.e. it has to use FAT, right | 07:23 |
| rfm | cloudcell, well it's not exactly the bootloader, EFI boot is a whole little OS, but yes, it has to have a FAT/eFAT partition to load the various modules from | 07:25 |
| cloudcell | ok, I just thought that when I was installing windows, windows setup 'contaminated' my linux drive | 07:26 |
| cloudcell | thanks for the info, rfm | 07:27 |
| cloudcell | can you also help me with my usb audio device problem, been fighting it for 3 days already? | 07:27 |

| rfm | cloudcell, no.. any USB or sound problems are beyond me. It's a miracle if they work at all.. | 07:29 |
| cloudcell | rfm :), ok, then I'll just post to / ask everyone :) | 07:30 |
| cloudcell | the "front panel" audio jack does not produce any sound and I suspect that there's some problem with the drivers. I can make it function if I use Audacity. I also installed windows on a separate drive just to check the sound. The sound in windows works fine. Any ideas what might be wrong?

| hochbar | Hello. Does Linux Mint and Xubuntu use same drivers repos or not? | 17:24 |
| gnrp | hochbar: *Should* be the same. I don't know if mint adopted a different strategy towards non-free things than xubuntu, but in general, I think they pretty much all use what debian has | 17:40 |
| hochbar | why I asked. Ive HP Pavilion 15 notebook. First I installed Mint Cinnamon, and Mint MATE- each time I had problem with WiFi connection, sometime (random time- after 5 min or 50 min) WiFi connection disconnected and I couldn't connect again, I could connect only after restart, but still next disconnection. Yesterday I installed Xubuntu and there | 17:58 |
| hochbar | isn't problem with WiFi, it works. So I think: how it may be? | 17:58 |

| gnrp | hochbar-new: Could laso be a more recent kernel version? Some patch that is inside Xubuntu and not in mint? | 19:46 |
| gnrp | I would think that they don't do different stuff. Maybe ubuntu activates non-free by default and mint doesn't? | 19:46 |
