=== beaver is now known as evilnewbie [00:07] Hello! Someone using WeChat? [00:07] The Chinese app. [00:08] Are you having an Ubuntu support issue which involves the application WeChat? [00:09] genii, well, no. [00:09] genii, it's off-topic. [00:09] !ot [00:09] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please register with NickServ (see /msg ubottu !register) and use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [00:09] I know. [00:12] Is there a way, post installation, in Ubuntu server, to bring up that little menu that lets you select pre-configured setups for various services like nextcloud, rocketchat, etc.? [00:12] In olden days it was "tasksel", but I see Ubuntu has moved onto something else. [00:15] Gerowen: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Tasksel#Usage_.28alternative.29 https://askubuntu.com/questions/252056/should-i-use-tasksel-tasks-in-apt-or-install-regular-metapackages [00:15] Gerowen: There should still be install images with the old installer === Taco is now known as alore [00:26] Hello, I have a question. What is the best IDE on Ubuntu? [00:28] !best | hexen_16 [00:28] !ide [00:28] Programming editors/suites: Terminal-based: vi/vim, emacs - KDE: Kate, KDevelop, Quanta+, Umbrello - GNOME: gvim, gedit, anjuta, pida, monodevelop, geany - Others: eclipse, netbeans, qtcreator [00:28] https://www.ubuntupit.com/best-linux-code-editor-top-10-reviewed-compared/ .. there is no single best, depends on your coding i guess [00:34] I see. I'll check out that link. I need a good one for web development though. Currently using bluefish. [00:47] hi everyone my computer is extremely almost to the point where its basically frozen [00:47] how do i close firefox? my cursor barely moves [00:48] gambl0re, if you have a terminal open, pkill firefox [00:49] no i dont. also my keyboard is unresponsive [00:50] !sysrq | gambl0re [00:50] gambl0re: In an emergency, you may be able to shutdown cleanly and reboot by holding down Alt+PrintScreen and typing slowly, in succession, R, E, I, S, U and B. For an explanation, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key [00:50] tomreyn, tried that. it did nothing [00:51] is that it? no more solutions? === JonathanS is now known as LOMLON [00:51] then you're options right now are waiting until things settle down (which, worst case, *may* never happen) or to power cycle, potentially loossing data. [00:52] ctrl alt f1, login, logout, and back to F6 sometimes helps gaining command again, and you should be able to kill firefox [00:53] OerHeks, keyboard is not responding to any keyboard commands [00:53] then hold power button down, and reboot [00:53] once you recovered control you should review your system configuration, make sure your swap setup makes sense the way it is, possibly find out what happened there (review logs). [00:54] 1 2 3 4 5 sec and it is off === LOMLON is now known as JonathanS [00:54] will this potentially fuck up my computer if i force shut down [00:55] oke, then wait [00:55] that wasnt my question [00:55] will this potentially fuck up my computer if i force shut down [00:56] no guarantee, but filesystem issues are fixable [00:56] you'll potentially loose data, you will have to have the file systems checked, but on most systems this happens automatically [00:57] and data loss wont be much, if any [00:57] ok thanks guys [00:57] if its working slowly [00:57] then you might be able to close firefox [00:57] but it wont corrupt my sdd right? [00:57] i had that happen [00:57] many times [00:57] where only mouse responds and its super slow [00:57] not physically, no [00:57] and i was able to close apps and stuff [00:57] sometimes my sdd boots into infrms after a force shutdown [00:57] and go back to normal [00:57] it just takes forever to get the mouse in the right place sometimes [00:57] so you might want to just keep trying that way [00:58] it probably happened because firefox took too much RAM [00:58] make swap partition larger or buy more ram [00:58] "infrms"? [00:58] if any of you do programming, sometimes when you run an infinite loop, it slows your computer down. this is whats happening.. haha [00:59] so there's no condition in the loop to stop it except shutdown pc? lol [00:59] i guess no programmers in here. anyways [00:59] im just gonna force shutdown. thanks [01:00] a good ide makes a shadowcopy any x timeunits
