XatenevHello, I am running ubuntu 22.04 and my system freezes at random intervals. When the system freezes, I can't do anything anymore (move mouse, use keyboard), even stuff like the "magic SysRq key combination" has no effect anymore. The only thing I can do is hold the button until pc turns off and restart. how can I debug this?04:06
Xatenevthis is happening for quite some time already, it also happened under 20.04 previously04:06
XatenevI am not doing anything specifically when this occurs, once or twice I even got the freeze before I started any program, immediately after logging into my account, on other times it doesn't happen at all for a few days or even a week04:07
Xatenevsometimes it happen every day once, it feels completely arbitrary04:07
lxcangDo you GPUs, Nvidia drivers installed?04:14
lxcangWhat does the sudo dmesg, sudo journalctl -b -1 say around the crash time?04:15
lxcangFaulty PSU?04:15
Xatenevlxcang: they should be, software & updates -> additional drivers says "Using nvidia driver metapackage from nvidia-driver-470 (proprietary)04:16
Xatenevlxcang: I will write it down and check this when it crashes again04:16
XatenevSadly I don't know an exact time right now for the last crash04:16
Xatenevlxcang: faulty psu -> i don't think so, this issue is exclusively happening in ubuntu, I assume if the PSU would be problematic, I would get this issue also in windows04:17
Xatenev(I have a dual-boot environment running)04:17
lxcangjournalctl -b -(number of reboots), should tell you at the end?04:19
Xatenevlxcang: so if I just rebooted from the last crash, I'd do -b -1?04:40
Xatenevsorry for the late response04:40
Xatenevlxcang: looks like this https://bpa.st/LCUA04:42
Xatenevwith -b - 104:43
XatenevI also see a ton of this, written in a bright yellow: https://bpa.st/USQA04:43
XatenevI guess yellow means bad04:43
Xatenevbut the yellow warnings are 4 minutes before the last log, so I guess its unrelated04:44
lxcangJetbrains is an IDE.04:45
Xatenevyes04:45
lxcangThat's probably unrelated.04:45
lxcangSo your computer likely is having a sudden death syndrome04:45
Xatenevlxcang: Iirc, a few seconds before I had the last crash, I got some warnings inside my ide - so it would fit pretty well. 30 seconds after I've pressed the button. Its unrelated though as you already said - because this also occurs when I didn't even have the IDE open04:48
Xatenevso with the last log being 40seconds after, it fits pretty well04:48
XatenevBut I guess no useful logs here then04:48
lxcangI hate to suggest this, start afresh with a new OS install?04:49
lxcangDo you have memory leaks?04:49
Xatenevlxcang: I guess I should do that - I was afraid to do this yet because this is my work PC with a ton of stuff to setup again04:49
Xatenev:E04:49
Xatenevlxcang: not that I know of04:49
lxcangWhat tons of stuff are those? Maybe not to rely on too much special setups? If I may know?04:50
XatenevI already assumed it had to do with swapping memory, because for some time it always occured with high memory load, but I upgraded my memory then to 64GB, and then I got a freeze right away after starting and logging in, 30 seconds in with basically no programs started04:51
lxcangXatenev: is the SSH still responsive?04:51
Xatenevlxcang: a lot of dev stuff, aws key stuff, certificates, vpn, docker, docker key registries, ide's, setup for our monolith application04:51
lxcangXatenev: pings?04:52
Xatenevlxcang: how could I check this?04:52
lxcangXatenev: all the stuff you mentioned are more likely than not are discrete files, which could be copied to somewhere else.04:52
lxcangXatenev: unless your VPN is an IKE/ipsec one, I believe the config is at one place, most likely.04:53
Xatenevyeah, its not that its impossible, but it will take a day or two to set everything up again04:53
lxcangXatenev: when your gdm3 becomes unresponsive, try SSH from a different computer or use xrdp or something.04:54
Xatenevsadly I don't have a different computer here04:54
lxcangXatenev: a phone? A Pi?04:54
Xatenevlxcang: hm, I could check if it still responds to HTTP calls over the local ip, if that would tell anything?04:56
Xatenev(If I get the next freeze)04:56
Xatenevnot exactly sure how I'd make a SSH call from my iphone to my pc lol04:56
lxcangXatenev: yeah, I saw PHP there, so do curl -s or just ping it.04:56
lxcangA thing called phone SSH client.04:57
XatenevI guess I need something like this https://apps.apple.com/de/app/termius-terminal-ssh-client/id54903990804:57
lxcangXatenev: the one I am using.04:58
XatenevI'll check it next time I get the freeze04:58
XatenevWhat would that tell me if it still responds / or doesn't?04:58
lxcangXatenev: Pi's are not expensive though to get. I don't mean Rpi only, there are bunch of Pis, like Orange Pi, Banana Pi...04:58
grytermius is awesome04:58

kaseyyes05:38
kaseyso uh05:38
kaseyi kinda installed ubuntu and started messing with settings05:38
kaseylike visual settings05:38
kaseyi installed gnome05:38
kaseytried to use gnome on xorg05:38
kaseyand it crashes05:38
arraybolt3I assume you started from Ubuntu Server?05:39
arraybolt3What version of Ubuntu are you using?05:39
kaseyi go to logib i select gnome on xorg then it crashes and just shows a terminal with the test kernel failed05:39
arraybolt3Generally if you want a desktop Ubuntu experience you start with Ubuntu Desktop or an official Ubuntu flavor like Lubuntu.05:39
kaseyi started from ubuntu 23.03 LTS05:39
kaseythink thats correct05:39
kaseyits 23.??05:40
arraybolt322.04 most likely if it's LTS.05:40
kaseyyeah05:40
kasey23.04 LTS05:40
arraybolt3There's an LTS in April every two years, so 18.04, 20.04, 22.04, etc.05:40
arraybolt323.04 is Lunar, a non-LTS release.05:40

kaseyi always en up in my bios05:41
arraybolt3If you had to *install* GNOME you probably did something wrong.05:41
kaseysaying it failed to find the OS05:41
kaseybut05:41
kaseyif i select hard drive as boot device which is already selected05:41
arraybolt3Just as a sidenote...05:41
arraybolt3!enter05:41
ubottuPlease try and keep as much of your info as possible on ONE line - easier to follow for everyone.05:41
kaseyit boots itnto a terminal which i can run kernel commands to start it05:41
kaseyand now,everytime i start it it doesnt start i need to use a command, after that when i try to log it the app bar thing is not there alot of the bottons do not work the Os keeps crashing and its making my laptop overheat05:42
arraybolt3kasey: I think probably you did something wrong during installation and may have corrupted something. Are you dual-booting Windows? If not, I'd just download Ubuntu Desktop (**not** Server), and then install that over the top of whatever you have now. If you have any important data on this machine already, copy it onto an external drive first.05:43
kaseyit gets hot to the point it shuts off then turns back on and says "Laptop Emergency Shutdown" under that it says "Your laptop reached a temp to high to control. Please let your laptop cool down for 4 hours then restart."05:43
arraybolt3Overheating is virtually never software's fault unless there's some sort of issue with fan-related software. You might want to open up your laptop and clean out the fan too.05:44
kaseyim not duel botting i only have Ubuntu on it. i made sure to get Desktop. so you want me to reinstall ubutnu desktop?05:44
kaseyidk this laptop has 3 different fans05:44
arraybolt3how old is it?05:44
kaseyits 3 months old05:45
kaseyit was cleaned last week05:45
arraybolt3hmm05:45
kaseythe fans are ramping up and task managers show 100$% usage on everything even ram05:45
kaseyand it has 32gb ram i dont think the os is really using that much05:45
arraybolt3I'd start with reinstalling to wipe out anything you did that messed up the system, then try again. If you don't *have* to use Xorg, don't, just use Wayland.05:45
arraybolt3(which is the default)05:45
kaseyalright05:46
kaseyi will reinstall and com back with a updat05:46
arraybolt3sounds good05:46
kaseyim back with some not so good news05:49
kasey@arratbolt305:49
kaseyi tried to install it but half way completed it said something failed and it could no longer detect the m.2. i tried to insall agian but once it gets to Installing Python3 it jjust says that it cant detect the storage device05:50

crystalrajelI'm sorry.06:16
crystalrajelI had Ubuntu 22.04 but I moved up to Ubuntu 24.04. When I did, things started to not work. First, it was a internet browser I used. I switched to FireFox and moved on. Next, it was Thundermail, then sooner or later the OS crashed and when I booted it up it said that it could not detect the OS. I enter UEFI, and select Ubuntu 24.04 as the boot device and I boot. Once it does boot, its a black screen with a command line. I type start and it seems to boot06:21
crystalrajelinto Ubuntu. After this, it was really broken... Like really... Really... broken.... I then try to reinstall the OS but it says it cant find my SSD. I dont know what to do anymore.06:21

zetherooWhen was kernel version 6.1 released for Ubuntu 22.04?09:57
zetherooAccording to this it never seem to have been https://ubuntu.com/about/release-cycle#ubuntu-kernel-release-cycle09:58
zetherooBut maybe I am missing something!?09:58
CosmicDJzetheroo: I'm running 6.2 on jammy/22.04 ; are you sure there was a 6.1 kernel?10:04
zetheroo CosmicDJ: I ask because some guy here is running v6.1 ... and I am wondering if this could in any way be due to an outdated 22.04 Ubuntu OS, or if this is something he had to have done manually.10:05
Maynyo is it me10:06
geirhaI got 6.1 on ubuntu 22.04. An oem version10:10
ddemaiohi all. do any of you know who applied for ubuntu to be at fosdem this year?10:12
=== deepSleep is now known as Guest4686
zetheroogeirha: interesting. Is that the current kernel running on your system?10:23
geirhazetheroo: yes, uname -r says 6.1.0-1026-oem11:06
geirhaubuntu came pre-installed on this dell laptop11:07
zetheroogeirha: ah, do you have a Dell repo?12:32
zetherooI found a Lenovo oem repo on this guy's Thinkpad12:32
zetheroowhich is where the 6.1 kernel came from12:32
geirhayes, /etc/apt/sources.list.d/{oem-jiayi-meta,oem-somerville-muk-meta}.list  adds a couple extra repos12:36
zetherooand I guess you didn't add this oem repo yourself, but that it came with the Ubuntu OS install?12:37
geirhathough linux-image-6.1.0-1026-oem  comes from the main repos12:38
geirhayeah, haven't messed around with adding repos myself; came with the oem install12:39
lotuspsychjezetheroo: in some cases, ubuntu will choose a better kernel for your brand/hardware like an oem kernel12:46
zetheroolotuspsychje: any idea how it decides this? On my Thinkpad there is no oem Lenovo repo, but on this other guy's Thinkpad there was. Both were bought directly from Lenovo with Windows OS.12:47
lotuspsychjezetheroo: not sure no, but ive seen a mailinglist about oem kernel policy a few times12:48

bluf0xHi,  Can  anyone help please?  im trying to install Ubuntu from USB stick when i load it via UEFI, it gives the menu with "try and install Ubuntu" etc.. but just before it gives that menu, it flashes an error quickly "error: file `/boot/` not found"  - so i was still able to continue the installation..  Can anyone tell me what this error means? and if i should continue with the installation would it be ok, or will it install it in a corrupt way?12:54
lotuspsychjebluf0x: are you trying to single install ubuntu or dualboot, and are your fastboot and secureboot enabled or disabled?12:55
bluf0xlotuspsychje, Single, and yes and yes both disabled.12:58
bluf0xits not like i cant continue with the installation, but im just worried this will have a negative effect on the installation, or is it normal?12:58
lotuspsychjei didnt see that error yet bluf0x, but if ubuntu proceeds install that would be a good sign i assume13:00
lotuspsychjebluf0x: wich tool did you use to create your ubuntu usb stick?13:03
bluf0xlotuspsychje, balena13:03
bluf0xit even verified successfully.13:04

ravageeh yeah13:57
ravagewhat ogra says :P13:57
ravagethe snap runs fine here13:57
ElliriaHey there. I've got a quetion about the update-initramfs command for any of you who happen to be gurus on that command:14:10
ElliriaThe update-initramfs command offers the -k option and has this to say for that option: "This argument is optional for update. The default is the latest kernel version." What I'm unclear on is if I boot into an older kernel and then run the sudo update-initramfs -u command *without* the -k option, will it update the current (older) kernel or will it realize there's a newer (latest) kernel and update that one?14:10
ograElliria, you should use -k $(uname -r) in that case just to be sure ... or "-k all"14:13
ogra(though the latter one will re-generate all of them, that takes indeed extra time)14:13
ograElliria, also: man update-initramfs ...14:13
bluf0xlotuspsychje, i tried flashing on a new stick, same issue. then i tried with rufus, and it seems that error doesnt flash before my eyes before the initial installation grub is shown. Do you maybe know why this happened ?14:22
ravagebluf0x: why dont you just try the installation?14:25
ravageyou said the installer starts just fine14:26
bluf0xwhich one? the one with the "boot error" that flashes before the grub menu?14:26
ravage"its not like i cant continue with the installation"14:26
bluf0xravage, i can start it, its no problem, i just want to know if there will be any negative impact on the installation behind the scenes?14:27
ElliriaThe  -k $(uname -r) option updates the current kernel because that's what you specify. The update-initramfs man page said, under the -k option, that the -k option is optional and that the default is the "latest kernel version". My question is that if you intentionally boot into a previous kernel instead of the latest kernel version, will update-initramfs know that the latest kernel exists and update that one or will it think the current14:28
Elliriakernel is the latest kernel and update that one instead?14:28
ravagebluf0x: if the error shows while booting your live usb then that has nothing to do with the install process. just try if it runs14:30
ph88ravage, it's already installed14:31
solzin23hello14:31
solzin23ksjdflkjsofjçdsjfp14:31
ph88ogra, i like to fix the root cause of the problem14:31
solzin23ksfjskldjflksjdlfjlksdjlkf14:31
ograElliria, it checks whats in /boot (or the installed kernels) and picks the last in list14:31
ograElliria, so it will likely not generate for the running but the last (as the sentence suggests)14:32
ElliriaAh, nice. It sounds like it would safely update the latest kernel, then.14:32
ElliriaOh, boy. It's the "likely not" part of what you wrote that worries me. Where can I find out for sure?14:32
solzin23ow14:32
solzin23thanks14:32
solzin23mt bom14:33
solzin23isso14:33
solzin23aqui14:33
ElliriaIn the event that you can't boot into the latest kernel, but you can boot into the previous kernel, you'd want to be certain not to tamper with the previous kernel.14:33
ograElliria, well, by looking at the code (its just shell scripts)14:34
ograElliria, look at get_sorted_versions() in /usr/sbin/update-initramfs14:36
ogra... in conjunction with set_highest_version()14:36
bluf0xravage, ok il try that.  ph88, if you are referring to my issue then i never installed the new ubuntu yet, this error flashes once before live usb grub menu.14:37
ravageph88: if the snap does not work contact the maintainer of that snap14:38
ograsnap info colorpie | grep contact14:38
ElliriaThank you, ogra! You've just opened up worlds for me. I didn't realize we could do that.14:39

webchat20I'm trying to set up dual boot on my desktop gaming pc but it will never fin the partition that has been made for Ubuntu to reside on16:38
webchat20I have set up dual boot on my lap top several time just this week alone trying out different sistros and flavors and had no problems16:40
webchat20But I'm at a total loss. I have a one. Terabyte partition made specifically to hold Linux and ubuntu won't see it no matter what I do I cannot get it to recognize the fact that there is a one air bite partition on my computer windows can see it just fine, like no problem at all. But if wonder cannot see it.16:41
webchat20Please I've looked everywhere consulted a.i. even bugged a friend while he was at work nothing seems to work16:44
webchat20Anyone? Please?16:45
johnfghi folks16:45
johnfgI don't have root at present with their own password, but do sudo -i with my own password.16:46
johnfgThis however, doesn't work if I want to scp root@another.ubuntu.machine.  I.e.,it doesn't take that standard user's password for sudo.16:47
johnfgCan this be fixed without giving root their own password?16:47
webchat20We may just all need help in this room johnfg nobody has responded to my pleas for help16:47
JanCwebchat20: what do you mean by "ubuntu won't see it no matter what"?16:47
johnfgwebchat20: What's up?16:48
webchat201tb hard drive partition  of an original drive that was 5tb16:48
webchat20Given the label W and mounted and optimized16:49
JanCjohnfg: you need the password for root on another.ubuntu.machine for that (but it seems like a really bad idea to do/enable ssh as root)16:50
webchat20Boot Ubuntu instalation media it comes back and say the only drive there is 4.5Tb and it's partitions do not start on physical sector boundary and and lists 3 partions16:50
=== lxcang1 is now known as lxcang
JanCwebchat20: but what does Ubuntu see then? what did you try to check if Ubuntu sees it?16:52
lxcangorga: I thought this channel is for everything in Ubuntu16:53
webchat20I only made one partition to my 5tb drive not 3 and none of the I've tried: sudo parted -l, lsblk,  dsudo frisk -l, suddenly lsblk -o Name,fstype,size,mountpoint,  partx, part probe,16:54
webchat20sudo fdisk -l  sorry my keyboard on my phone doesn't understand what I'm typing16:56
Linux^can I not just show the htop  interface in my dashboard to check my system uses?16:56
JanCbut what does e.g. parted or fdisk show for that drive then?16:56
Linux^cpu, ram etc uses16:56
webchat20Windows can see all the drives fine16:56
webchat20Just a 4.5 Tb drive no 1tb partition at all16:57
JanCmaybe you are using some Windows full disk encryption or so?16:57
webchat20And 2 other partitions, one that's 1 MB and 1. That's a 127 MB. But I  never made those partitions16:57
webchat20I fully formatted the partition. I gave it a brand new drive name. I took it over to disk defragmentary optimizer. And I optimized it like it's a brand new volume.16:58
JanCmight be EFI boot partition16:58
JanCyou shouldn't format the partition in Windows16:58
JanCmaybe just remove that partition in Windows so that there is an empty space on the disk? or at least leave the partition unformatted?17:00
webchat20Which is weird because my operating system of windows is on an M dot 2N VME hard drive. Well, I was gonna format the partition in the ubuntu loader. But every single hard drive that I selected no matter which hard drive I selected if I selected the option for partition table. Said every single partition on this drive will be erased, including boot17:01
webchat20loaders. If you select this option as like world fuck17:01
webchat20It totally sent my message in the middle of typing. I was like not II totally don't understand how uh. Uh, uh, uh, boon too wants me to use this partition loader. If it's just gonna delete everything, including my boot manager's just for trying to make one little partition. You know, I've been. I've been at this for like 12 hours now. I didn't even17:02
webchat20sleep last night.17:02
webchat20Sorry about my voice typing errors and the fbomb my phone is full blown tarded17:03
JanCmaybe that's the problem: you're too tired now  :)17:03
webchat20Oh I'm exhausted but the computer is my not only my most prized posession but quite literally my only posession. 😅17:04
webchat20This computer17:04
johnfgso, if I wanted to scp a file with root permission from a machine which is set up similarly, with root being available via sudo -, is it possible?17:16
JanCwhy do you want to do that as root?17:16
webchat20Sorry I had someone at the door for my solar panels17:16
johnfgI don't want to, but the file is owned by root.  I can copy it elsewhere and get it done, but now am wondering about whether I can do it this other way or not.17:17
JanCyou can ssh as root, but it is disabled by default for security reasons17:21
JanC(scp is part of & uses ssh)17:22
johnfgJanC: I got the file, just a couple extra steps, but I guess more secure that way.  Thanks JanC .17:22
Guest76so whts most likely to stop linux from seing a partion? all the demos i saw online innvolved the user shrinking the vvolume in windows and applyng a new partition. i didn't see a single video where they used the tool offered by ubuntu and after my intracction with it i undestand why that is. this is webchat20 joining back on my laptop instead of17:25
Guest76phone17:25
Guest76johnfg i don't know if this helps you, but you can always use sudo -s and you will be root until you end the session17:26
JanCyou still haven't shown us what partitions linux sees or doesn't see...17:27
JanC(and how that compares to what Windows sees)17:28
Guest76now that im on my laptop can i uploadimaages to this chat?17:28
JanCyou can upload images to imgur.com or similar sites17:29
JanCand give us a link to them17:29
Guest76ok working on it now17:31
Guest76ill share a link to a google drive folder17:36
Guest76this laptop is so slow even with linux on it. its 15 years old17:48

Installtardedthats me posting those images again18:26
InstalltardedDoes anybody have any advice like how are you supposed to partition one of these hard drives without deleting everything on the hard drive that that's hardly helpful. I don't understand why they would make it that way like you can't just delete like some of a drive just like just maybe half of a hard drive and use that to put ubuntu on and leave18:28
Installtardedthe rest. Okay, no, they just have to delete everything that you have.18:28
JanCGoogle drive says "no image preview available"18:29
InstalltardedHild on I'll post links one by one I guess18:31
InstalltardedBut if it's easier for you to just walk me through this stupid partition tool. I'm happy to use the partition tool but every single thing I click on says it's going to delete everything that I have.18:31

InstalltardedAnyone?18:44
JanCyou used https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_Disk_Manager to partition that disk in Windows; do you really need that?18:45
JanCis there anything from Windows on that disk, or anything that you use in Windows?18:46
=== lxcang1 is now known as lxcang
Guest76i have been trying to saythatevery time i try to use the one built in to ubuntu installer it warns me thatit will delete every single partition on the disk?! what other choice did i have18:46
Guest76every  hard drive on my computer haseiiher giant libraries of books and udemy courses, priceless photos. game libraries etc. but i could get away with sparing 1tb for the ubuntu OS ater shufflin a lt of stuff around and backing abunch to the cloud18:48
Guest76all said ive got like 16 tb offiles but not enough online storage for it all18:49
Guest76of files18:49
Guest76hell one hard drive has my mp3 library with 87,575 different artists in it. yeah i have a pproblem18:50
JanCyou might be able to make a 1 TiB partition on that disk with either Windows or 'ldmtool', but I don't think the installer supports that by default?18:56
JanCthat = LDM18:57
InstalltardedIt honestly sounds like the only good option is to wait till payday, buy a new hard drive and use that to install Ubuntu on.18:57
JanCit would certainly be *easier*  :)18:57
InstalltardedI just don't understand why is was so easy to dual boot on this old lenovo laptop I got from a friend, but my multi thousand dollar desktop gaming pc is the one that has the issue18:59
JanCthe issue is with the way how that disk is formatted18:59
InstalltardedSee that's what's weird on the laptop ubuntu formated and portioned it for me but It didn't delete EVERYTHING like it's threatening to do now19:00
JanCand it might be possible even, just complicated (the reverse, installing Windows on top of LVM2 would be impossible, I think)19:01
InstalltardedAnd it doesn't matter what hard drive. I select in the installer out of the 6 hard drives that I have. It threatens to delete the entire thing on every single one of them.19:01
InstalltardedI'm trying to see if I can play some file majang. And i'd like figure out a way to get one empty hard drive and then just use that. But I don't know how it's gonna go.19:02
JanCtry making free space on a disk that doesn't have LDM  :)19:02
InstalltardedWhat's LDM19:04
JanChttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_Disk_Manager19:04
JanCit's similar to LVM in linux19:05
InstalltardedOkay, I'm not gonna lie, like reading that, it's like. Oh, that sounds really cool, but 100% that is a feature that nobody asked for has to be....like anyone would much rather have multiple hard drives and organize things themself. Then like have multiple hard drives and tell them all to pretend to be the same drive. That nobody asked for that19:07
Installtardedright? I mean if you wanted to have multiple hard drives all pretending to be the same drive. That's what raid is.19:07
=== itu is now known as Guest9307
JanCit includes support for software RAID indeed19:08
InstalltardedI had no idea anything like that was installed on my drive at all. Definitely was not intentional. Did my drive come like that? Or was it something that I did?19:10
JanCI have no idea19:11
JanCit's possible Windows uses it by default now (just like some linux distros use LVM by default or as an option)19:11
InstalltardedThis is my first time getting back into Linux since probably like 2008. When I was like in the Marine Corps. But my radar systems were redhat. Those were the days man is compizconfig-settings-manager still a thing? Because that would be really cool. To use again. I used to have so much fun on that with my vaio laptop. BtW😡🤬😤 about Red Hat19:14
Installtardedchoosing to go closed source. How will Fedora survive?19:14
=== Guest9307 is now known as itu
JanCthat you have to ask people who use Fedora, I guess19:15
JanC(not here)19:15
InstalltardedHaha lol19:15
JanCand compizconfig-settings-manager still exists19:16
JanCbut the default Ubuntu Desktop no longer uses Compiz19:17
InstalltardedLinus Torvald would not be pleased. Linux by definition has always held the core tenant of being open source and designed for collaboration  and Red Hart is as far upstream as it gets for a few distros19:17

EickmeyerUbuntu MATE is probably best suited for using Compiz.19:19
EickmeyerIt's an official flavor of Ubuntu.19:19
InstalltardedThat's so funny that you say that. Because I was literally torn between mate and unity. And I ended up choosing unity just because I think it's what I used back in the day but I thought unity was also an official flavor now19:20
EickmeyerUbuntu Unity is, but they're slowly moving away from Compiz.19:20
InstalltardedDang, what I wonder why that is? I wish that the compass was great like super great19:20
InstalltardedSorry, I'm using voice typing. And there are certain words that my phone will literally go out of its way to get wrong.19:21
JanCI'm not sure Compiz is very actively developed still19:21
InstalltardedI mean, doesn't that make it difficult for compass developers? Because, like retirement develop looking update comes out like it. Kind of like breaks the stuff that they've been developing more and they have to like. Keep on changing it, do it, make it work.19:21
InstalltardedCompiz19:22
InstalltardedKeeps autocorrecting to compass19:22
EickmeyerCompiz developers are volunteers, and they'd have to actually do the work on it. If they're even doing anything, it's done for free, so it's not like they're obligated to do anything.19:22
InstalltardedI've always thought that ubuntu just really had the best feel to it, like a nice new car with leather interior but easy to work on I stead of overcomplicated and weird. Like having A lexus a really, really nice Lexus instead of an Audi.19:26
InstalltardedWell I appreciate the "college try" but some battles can't be won, and I don't want to risk bricking this system or losing any data. So with my luck as I command my file in their elegant dance of musical chairs.19:28
InstalltardedEickmeyer I just started up school again and I decided to go with programming. I'll be way late to the party, but now that I know that I'm going to make it a point to lend my services towards compiz myself should they still be around by the time I learn enough to ve useful. Buuut right now I'm only in week two of intro to javascript. Thanks for19:34
