Wifi has been incredibly slow ever since some updates about a week ago, every other OS or device I try gets the full 700Kbps download, but can't seem to hold a stable connection over wifi, averaging 10-250Kbps with spikes to 450Kbps but sometimes complete drops of the connection. <BlueProtoman> I'm using Ubuntu 16.10 MATE 16.10. For some reason, the menu bars (File, Edit, View, etc.) in any Qt application (I tried in at least Tiled and qpdfview) don't appear. Source is this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/appmenu-qt5/+bug/1307619 , but the suggestion of uninstalling appmenu-qt5 didn't work. Apparently this has something to do with dbus? Any tips? <ubottu> Launchpad bug 1307619 in appmenu-qt5 (Ubuntu) "All Qt5 applications' menu bar is missing at non-Unity DEs after appmenu-qt5 installed" [High,Confirmed] #ubuntu-mate 2017-01-02 <Calis_Moonelf> Hello folks!

Thank you <jack-the_ripper> hey im trying to install another linux distro along with mate and i cant get it to install <sinewav> are you talking dual-boot? <sinewav> What other distro and why, may I ask? <jack-the_ripper> kali linux for bug bounty <sinewav> It might be better to install it as a virtual machine instead <sinewav> Are you familiar with virtual machines? <jack-the_ripper> yep <jack-the_ripper> i didnt know they had an image for kali <jack-the_ripper> is on there site <sinewav> well you can install a virtual machine using an ISO, just like anything else. <sinewav> I use Oracle's VirtualBox <sinewav> Just download the Kali ISO and create a machine with VirtualBox <sinewav> Otherwise you'll have to make a partition on your machine and install Kali to that. <jack-the_ripper> o i thought it had to be a actual vm image <sinewav> NOPE! <sinewav> If you have never used VirtualBox, you may have to change a setting in your BIOS/UEFI to allow a hypervisor to access the hardware. Or something like that. <jack-the_ripper> theres no option in the unetbootin that says to install <jack-the_ripper> so i cant even start the operation <sinewav> Usually a setting that says "allow virtualization" or similar. <jack-the_ripper> but ill just use it as vm <sinewav> yeah, VMs are the way to go. I never dual boot anymore. Haven't in years. <jack-the_ripper> they have windows vm? <jack-the_ripper> and coulkd you play games in it <sinewav> Sure. I have a windows VM on my ubuntu-mate machine I use to work with some proprietary software and files. You could probably play games, but you might run into some graphics problems. <jack-the_ripper> is there a way to make the screen bigger ' <garandil_> jack-the_ripper: install guest additions <jack-the_ripper> guest additions? <garandil_> KVM, vBox, VMware... all supply guest additions, i.e better drivers etc. <jack-the_ripper> install from command line? <garandil_> usually supplied in an iso you can mount through the hypervisor <jack-the_ripper> is that guest session going to help make the screen bigger? <garandil_> They usually allow more than 1024x768 resolution in the VM <jack-the_ripper> one of my games says its not installed? <jack-the_ripper> i had it installed? <jack-the_ripper> nvm was an update <jack-the_ripper> when i went to install that vm it said grub error <chatter> hey guys <chatter> allah is doing <chatter> sun is not doing allah is doing <chatter> to accept Islam say that i bear witness that there is no deity worthy of worship except Allah and Muhammad peace be upon him is his slave and messenger <randall> not you again <randall> that zealot found the open mw irc last week #ubuntu-mate 2017-01-03 <Australopithecus> Hello my windows partition is mounting as read only can someone give me fstab mount options that will give me permission to read and write to it? <Australopithecus> I am on ubuntu mate 16.1 <rmx77> hello all <rmx77> anyone around <masnell_> rmx77: there are approximately 80 ppl here, either active or checking in on the thread. if you have a question pls ask, and if someone can help they will respond but give it some time <rmx77> i am having a few issues one of them is where the computer will randomly just black screen and i have to do a hard reboot and the other issue is with the usb m-audio box where it keeps turning it off and on each time it runs audio and no audio is there so if sound goes through it turns it on if no sound is going through it turns it off also after a hard reboot i have to unplug and plug back in the usb sound box to get the thing to <rmx77> work right <masnell_> rmx77: what version of UM are you running?

I want to install Rstudio and it cannot use GStreamer ver1.0 <douglas> I am very new to Linux and don't know the comand line well yet. <Akuli> is 0.1 same as 0.10? or do you mean 1.0? <alkisg> maybe: sudo apt install gstreamer0.10 <douglas> I am guessing it will work with the latest version of 0.1 Thanks <douglas> When i tried that I got an error: Invalid opertation gstream0.10 <alkisg> You mistyped a lot, try it again :) <douglas> tried again and it was unable to locate the package gstream0.10 <alkisg> Again you mistyped <douglas> thanks that appears to be working, I must be more careful on my typing. <Akuli> or just use tab <Akuli> type "sudo apt-get install gstrea", then hit tab once to have it complete some, then hit it two more times to see a list of what you can install :) <douglas> Now I am trying to install libgstreamer0.1-0 and it says it is unable to locate the package Libgstreamer0.10-0 <alkisg> libgstreamer0.10-0 <alkisg> Again typo :) <douglas> I did type it correctly in the command line.It returns Unable to locate package libgstreamer0.10-0 and it also says: Couldn't find any package by glob 'libgstreamer0.10-0' and Couldn't find any package by regex 'libgstreamer0.10-0' <DougCD> I have downloaded Ubuntu 16.04.1 into my download box on a win 10 system.

I know they provide functionallity like, window transparency, but other than that what am I missing out on? :) <peteyy> Is there anyone around? :| <sixwheeledbeast> as in window manager compositor? <peteyy> yes <sixwheeledbeast> It's mainly used for effects and transitions upon window selection. There are options for compositors for Ubuntu-MATE, Marco Compiz etc. <peteyy> So they are optional but can be enabled right? :) <sixwheeledbeast> In MATE Tweak there are options to enable CPU or GPU Marco and Compiz. I prefer without myself. <peteyy_> I managed to crash it :D maybe I should also stick with the default settings <alkisg> The default is to have composition <alkisg> (in ubuntu; while in debian mate it's not) <Altom> Hello, I installed canon capt driver 2.70 (latest) for my printer and got it working. But on shutdown the daemon hangs and there is a 5 minutes delay before it gets killed <Altom> I tried to look up the config files, but I couldn't find anything to reduce this delay to 5 seconds <Altom> Can anyone helps me either reduce the delay to 5 seconds or investigate the origin of the problem ? <sixwheeledbeast> where did the driver come from? <Altom> Canon website <Altom> It's 2 debs <Altom> It's working very well beside this problem <neals> hey, i have ubuntu MATE and recently notifications are not running and when i try to listen to some audio . it doesn't work neither. <neals> apps that works as tray icons no longer opens up. <neals> or rather not showing up <neals> anybody knows how i can fix this issue? <sixwheeledbeast> Never used Canon printer, can you pull any information from your logs about the hang on shutdown? <sixwheeledbeast> I know I had fun installing some Epson drivers in the past had to install debs with --force-arch IIRC. <sixwheeledbeast> Have you checked the settings for your notifications? #ubuntu-mate 2017-01-09 <ronald_> Hi is anyone here <sam_12> hello all <mate|27561> This is a test message! <sokolov> hi <sokolov> i need help with kxstudio on ub mate <sokolov> anyone want to assist? <sokolov> hi <chenghoufeng> hi <kathy> Na ihr ich bin neu auf Mate :D <NeoNamo> !DE <ubottu> In den meisten Ubuntu-KanÃ¤len wird nur Englisch gesprochen.

I would also recommend to read about the caveats of swap on the Pi. The bus on the Pi really isn't fast enough for swap, it will be orders of magnitude slower than on a PC. <ouroumov> Not to mention, it's flash storage :/ <jaythelinuxguy_> Right. #ubuntu-mate 2017-01-10 <cyrus_> dfs <ivan_> hah <ivan_> hello ? <ivan_> ll <ivan_> HELLO <solondutra> ola <DougCD> Dual booted with win 10 but can't seem to get wireless Internet established.

The system they were in previously is no longer bootable. Both drives appear to be corrupted and I'm unable to successfully mount them on another Linux box. Is there any way to get the files from it?! <randall> lafleurdubien, it can be done, but if it wasn't lvm it would juat need a chmod, since it is lf it's more complicated <randall> I did it once, but I had to google it <lafleurdubien> I've been googling for a while and I can't seem to get anywhere. Do you know what command you were using or what resource you referenced?? <hagu> Hi, there is a file called "Swapiness" on my Desktop. I think I havenÃt put it there. Is there any reason for it to be there? <hagu> ..a plain text doc with no content <alkisg> hagu: right click on it and see when it was created <alkisg> Maybe you created it while playing with console commands? <alkisg> Did you try things about swappiness previously? <hagu> I didn't try to change swappiness on this machine (just installed ubuntu mate) <hagu> Indeed it was created yesterday night after I set up the system <hagu> No harm in deleting it? <hagu> ...swappiness will be unchanged after deleting it? <alkisg> Sure <alkisg> system files never go into user's desktops <nomic> Swappiness is the kernel parameter that defines how much (and how often) your Linux kernel will copy RAM contents to swap. This parameter's default va... <nomic> something to do with swap? <alkisg> swappiness does have to do with swap, but a user created file called "swappiness" has nothing to do with it <alkisg> It's just an empty file in his desktop <guest-lae8os> Hello Guys! <guest-lae8os> Do you like Maths or Physics? You are very nice :) <guest-lae8os> Ihr stinkt! :)+ <akuf> Wir stinken? <hagu> thanks @alksig and @nomic <akuf> Hi there.

Somebody please help! :( <bpauser> hm <bpauser> so i just install ubuntu mate <Astro7467> @lafleurdubien: other than confirming you are using sudo or root acct, this IRC is not CentOS related <lafleurdubien> I understand that this is not the place to discuss CentOS7. Does systemd work differently between ubuntu and rhel? <DarkPsydeLord> lafleurdubien: have to pull different strings but yeah pretty much the same <mate|55297> Ø§Ù <DarkPsydeLord> o/ mate|55297 <lafleurdubien> Just so everybody knows, if I had my way, we would have installed ubuntu, not centOS! #ubuntu-mate 2017-01-13 <DougCD> locked out and need to know how to clear password <DougCD> I'm not locked out of system but can't download anything. <DougCD> Authentication is loaded with something I don't know. <DougCD> Hi qdk <DougCD> So do I need to go to another connection? <DougCD> And do I need mike and headset? <DougCD> Hi tori <Astro7467> DougCD - you need to provide more info on what you are talking about. <Astro7467> Password? Headset? Connection? <ouroumov> DougCD, you have autologin at boot but you have forgotten your password and thus can't download any update [y/n]? <DougCD> Okay, I just got on with 16.04.1 and I don't have any time with Ubuntu yet. I tried to download some stuff off of Software Boutique and I was ask for a password to download. I read that one could use password itself but it didn't work. So what's next? <Astro7467> the password is the same you used to login or created when you installed U-MATE - is that the password you forgotten? Per ouroumov's question? <DougCD> Yes, when I first got on I didn't have Internet yet and got on here and listened the other day. Now I'm on with Ubuntu instead of Win 10. <DougCD> I got on 16.04.1 without a password just from try out. I don't recall any rhonda96@example.net. <Astro7467> Just to verify - you installed Ubuntu MATE? not running on Live USB? <Astro7467> try this article; http://askubuntu.com/questions/24006/how-do-i-reset-a-lost-administrative-password#24024 <Astro7467> 1st answer walks you through the steps <DougCD> I installed from a binary download to cd/dvd/rom drive <DougCD> (iso) that is <Astro7467> Have you installed it on your HDD or did you boot from the CD/DVD and select Live try-out mode? <DougCD> Thank you in advance for your assistance. I'll try it. <DougCD> cd/dvd and just loaded it. No try out. <Astro7467> just wanted to confirm - the link is relevant to you then - was verifying by 'load' you meant installed <casanova> Hello everyone, from Venezuela! <casanova> Buenas noches a todos, Â¿Hay alguien que hable espaÃ±ol? <HoppingMadMan> A little, if you need help maybe I could ask my wife to help translate for you casanova <casanova> thank You HoppingMadMAn <casanova> Tengo instalado el Ubuntu Mate 16.04 de 64 bits desde hace 3 meses, y todo al principio estuvo bien! <megazell> Hi is anyone else getting and update error with an expired key? <HoppingMadMan> No, Megazell <megazell> I am getting this "Err:18 http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/strycore/xUbuntu_16.04 ./ Release.gpg <megazell> The following signatures were invalid: KEYEXPIRED 1484261108 <megazell> " <casanova> Pero dede hace algunos dias, al escender la laptop , al parecer no reconoce el mouse ni las cornetas que tengo conectadas de manera casi permanente, para que las reconozca tengo que desconectarlas (fisicamente) y volverlas a conectar <casanova> Â¿Alguna sugerencia o idea para resolver esto? Gracias <HoppingMadMan> I am going to say megazell that has something to do with opensuse more than anything <megazell> It's a PPA in my Ubuntu Mate install - remove the PPA? <HoppingMadMan> Maybe try and reinstall, casanova maybe bad update broke something between patching <megazell> Hmm - It seems to be Lutris related. <megazell> Thanks - Going to reboot. <casanova> Woooo! Thank You My friend, but i would not want to reinstall .. I will probe with others actions, <casanova> Hopping than you, for your advice <HoppingMadMan> Its ok, its just sometimes stuff breaks my wifes graphics broke today, due to a update so I had to reinstall Ubuntu parts of her OS today <casanova> Thank You! .. Where are you from? <HoppingMadMan> Australia but now live in MÃ©xico with my wife <megazell> Thanks for the advice and help HoppingMadMan! <HoppingMadMan> Don't worry, just best advice I can give you is keep a back up so if anything breaks you can simply role back to early version <megazell> Got it. Never seen that error before and my searches led me to old post from Ubuntu 9.10 and 12.04 <Astro7467> megazell, do you have any custom themes installed? I recall one I had (ARC?) that came from an opensuse repository and gave this error, a little searching found it had been updated and that repository wasn't needed any more or a proper PPA had been created <HoppingMadMan> You know that is what I was thinking to Astro7467 <megazell> Hey I do but this PPA was tied to Lutris - It's an open gaming platform. <megazell> I installed it to test some Wine games a long time ago. <Astro7467> megazell, if it was some time ago, could be worth uninstalling and reinstalling via software boutique - currently it doesn't fix repository changes AFAIK, but this cld be fixed in 17.04 :) <HoppingMadMan> Good advice Astro7467 <casanova> Thank You guys! Good night! <megazell> Yeah I removed it. I don't need it anymore so I will get to it when needed. <Astro7467> HoppingMadMan, fellow Aussie here (Oi Oi Oi) - living in Singapore <HoppingMadMan> I am living here because the government want give my wife a visa at the moment <HoppingMadMan> They are being really hard on places they feel are from the third world trying to get visa into Australia so my wife and I live in this state of limbo <randall> well, that sucks <Astro7467> thats gotta hurt - if we decide to move back I cld hv the same issue :/ - but she is singaporean so maybe easier - tho I know MX is not a rich country, hardly thought it was 3rd world category - maybe I only saw the nice stuff when there :D <HoppingMadMan> Yeah it dose, but Mexico has good food its cheap so we get by even though as IT tech my job is meaningless here because IT is always a after thought <HoppingMadMan> Its its a grate place, that sadly is screwed over by its neighbor to the North <Astro7467> ummm... don't think IT as an after thought is only a mexico thing.... <Astro7467> Mexico shld build a wall to keep them out..... <HoppingMadMan> Yeah well, the problem being is the government are in bed with the USA, what Mexican president has not left to go live in the USA <HoppingMadMan> After his term has ended <HoppingMadMan> Sorry, if I am hard to follow dyslexia plus being tired...

My music collection is pushing 250,000 songs <HoppingMadMan> Its painful finding a music play that can handle that type of data <Astro7467> yep - I'm about 50% of your library size <HoppingMadMan> Yeah, tomahawk is holding up better than any other option I have come across <Astro7467> tomahawk? eliminate my ignorance - is a app or server/streamer solution? <HoppingMadMan> Yes and No <HoppingMadMan> You can add you own collection but it has all the ability to at streamers and what not at your choice <Astro7467> I will hv to check it out <HoppingMadMan> Its good for what it is, not super open source I feel but it is better than anything I found <HoppingMadMan> Because they are adding stuff for Spotify so, if you like your stuff super free as in freedom it might not be the player for you <Astro7467> I flexible with my FOSS-ness <HoppingMadMan> Yeah me to, I don't like the whole Richard Stallman philosophy <jack-the_ripper> can any one help randomly when im watching some thing online a crackling sound happens and its hard to get it to stop? <catraxx> hi guys <catraxx> i have a weird glitch since i installed the mese grafics drivers yesterday.
