[01:36] <StudioUser5> hi everyone
[01:38] <StudioUser5> I would like to ask if everyone can still use the text mode to install Ubuntu 22.04.3 desktop?
[01:40] <arraybolt3> Not sure what you mean?
[01:41] <NotEickmeyer> StudioUser5: No, that's never been a supported option.
[01:41] <arraybolt3> I'm not aware of there being a text-mode installer for any official Ubuntu Flavor, or for Ubuntu Desktop. There's one for Ubuntu Server but it's obviously not Ubuntu Studio.
[01:42] <Eickmeyer> arraybolt3: Even if they meant through the mini.iso artifact, it was never supported.
[01:42] <Eickmeyer> Ubuntu Studio used to be, prior to 12.04, *only* installable via text mode.
[01:42] <Eickmeyer> But that's clearly not 22.04.3, so moot point.
[01:42] <arraybolt3> ahhhhhh didn't know that about <12.04
[01:43] <Eickmeyer> 12.04 was the first time Studio had a live .iso.
[01:43] <Eickmeyer> Still was a flavor, just not "live".
[01:44] <arraybolt3> I missed a lot of cool stuff jumping into Linux in 2019 rather than earlier :P
[01:46] <guiverc> arraybolt3, fyi:  Lubuntu used the debian installer as the alternate-ISO (non-live text) at 18.04 (original ISO, not later respins)...   was used if machine had <700MB of RAM as live didn't leave sufficient to run ubiquity
[01:47] <arraybolt3> guiverc: cool
[01:48] <guiverc> (by at 18.04; I really meant last time at 18.04.. ie. LXDE releases only)
[02:02] <OvenWerks> STudio on less than Gb of ram starts to become meaningless pretty quick.
[02:05] <OvenWerks> even 4Gb is pretty minimal any more. Mind, desktop use tends to take more memory than audio only applications if you don't go crazy.
[02:50] <BinarySavior> how can i disable crtl+f8 shortcut
[02:54] <arraybolt3> BinarySavior: System Settings -> search for "shortcuts" -> click "Shortcuts" -> search for "f8" -> click "KWin" -> click the trash can next to "Ctrl+F8"
[02:54] <BinarySavior> ty
[02:54] <arraybolt3> (this is assuming Ctrl+F8 presents all virtual desktops on your system like it does on mine, but regardless you should be able to find which app has Ctrl+F8 bound like this)
[02:55] <arraybolt3> obviously make sure to click "Apply" to make the settings actually stick
[02:55] <BinarySavior> yea it worked
[02:55] <arraybolt3> \o/
[05:19] <len__> Dumb question  ;)  just installed a working drive on a new mother board. when it first booted I got a grub error. which partition is the bios supposed to point at? Or is it a "if it works thats the one?"
[05:25] <guiverc> BIOS/firmware/uEFI usually points to a drive... (not a partition..  the MBR is a first sector of the drive; reserved for that purpose since 1982 which is outside of partitioning area as reserved for that)
[05:26] <guiverc> len__, ^    (also if using an ESP; reference is still to a drive; as by definition only a single ESP should exist on a drive; ESP=EFI system partition)
[05:27] <guiverc> (a computer can have multiple drives, the firwmare/setting just tells it which drive to use, be it ESP or legacy/MBR)
[05:34] <len__> When it came up it was pointed at the boot partition, I changed it to the only other option and it seems to work. I guess it figured the boot partition has a boot flag. So at the drive makes sense. I will go check my bios.
[05:34] <len__>  Thank you
[05:35] <len__> This is a real simple system. one drive, one boot partition, one root
