| lotus | hey, my power button on my tower does nothing. I want it to suspend. I've tried going to settings -> power manager and setting the action to suspend, but it doesn't work? | 02:08 |
|---|---|---|
| charlie-tca | lotus: will it suspend with Ctrl+Alt+Del? | 02:11 |
| lotus | charlie-tca: looks like that activates my screensaver | 02:11 |
| charlie-tca | hm, what about clicking quit? Is there an option there for suspend? | 02:12 |
| lotus | charlie-tca: yes, that option works well and is what I've been using. | 02:12 |
| charlie-tca | (you can click cancel if there isn't one) | 02:12 |
| charlie-tca | Not all the towers have suspend connected to the power button | 02:13 |
| lotus | charlie-tca: If I set it to shutdown or ask | 02:13 |
| lotus | it still does nothing | 02:13 |
| charlie-tca | MIght be a bios option, too. | 02:13 |
| charlie-tca | If you hold the power button 8 seconds, it still doesn't shutdown? | 02:13 |
| lotus | charlie-tca: no, that works fine. | 02:14 |
| charlie-tca | It may not be able to suspend with the power button. I have had machines that would not do anything but shutdown, and when I changed the motherboard, I found out there was no terminals for suspend on the board. | 02:15 |
| lotus | charlie-tca: though, if I change the power-manager options to be shutdown, the power button still does nothing if I press it. | 02:15 |
| lotus | I don't want to do hard shutdown by holding the button in | 02:16 |
| charlie-tca | That might be a bios setting. My compaq motherboards have a bios option, shutdown or suspend when power button is pressed. Not both | 02:16 |
| charlie-tca | If it is a bios option, the software can not be forced to override it | 02:17 |
| lotus | It's strange, though. In Ubuntu 9.10 it was working fine. | 02:17 |
| charlie-tca | Sounds like we broke that, then. File a bug using ubuntu-bug linux in a terminal, and state in the description that it did work in 9.10 | 02:19 |
| lotus | charlie-tca: alright, though it works fine on my netbook. Thanks | 02:20 |

| guero | Hey! | 04:24 |
| guero | I've got a question regarding Flash on my Xubuntu laptop. | 04:24 |
| guero | I just installed Flash on my laptop, and I can't get sound to work. | 04:26 |
| guero | I can watch Youtube videos, for example. However, the sound doesn't work. | 04:27 |
| guero | Yes, I know my sound card works. No, my computer is not muted right now. | 04:27 |
| moetunes | guero: you could try pavucontrol | 04:28 |
| moetunes | !info pavucontrol | 04:28 |
| ubottu | pavucontrol (source: pavucontrol): PulseAudio Volume Control. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.9.9-1 (maverick), package size 118 kB, installed size 948 kB | 04:28 |
| guero | !info pavucontrol isn't working for me. | 04:31 |

| guero | I just installed pavucontrol in Synaptic | 04:31 |
| guero | Do I need to reboot my system and try again? | 04:31 |
| moetunes | run the app in terminal and check out your options | 04:32 |
| moetunes | the !info pavucontrol bit just tells about the package that is available | 04:33 |
| guero | @moetunes Sorry, I'm a complete newbie to Xubuntu. | 04:33 |
| guero | Could you please type out the command I'm supposed to run? | 04:34 |
| moetunes | np :) | 04:34 |
| moetunes | guero: in a terminal type pavucontrol | 04:34 |
| moetunes | or type pav and hit the tab key twice | 04:34 |
| moetunes | !tab | 04:35 |
| ubottu | You can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 04:35 |
| guero | moetunes: Thank you! :) | 04:35 |
| moetunes | yw | 04:35 |
| guero | Okay... | 04:35 |
| guero | I've just opened pavucontrol... | 04:36 |
| guero | What do I need to look for? | 04:36 |
| moetunes | I've never needed to use it so I know nothing about it except it gets recommanded for issues like yours | 04:36 |
| guero | It's working!! | 04:39 |
| guero | Thanks so much!! | 04:39 |
| guero | :D | 04:39 |
| moetunes | woot! | 04:39 |
| guero | Hehe!! :D | 04:39 |
| guero | Thanks again! | 04:39 |
| guero | See you later! | 04:39 |

| nicofs | My network manager applet in the task bar just disappeared - and with it my network connection... what can i do? (restart didn't fix it) | 08:31 |
| leoquant | !panels | 08:31 |
| ubottu | Did your panels disappear? Press alt+f2 and run: xfce4-panel | See also: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XubuntuPanels | Want to theme your panels? See http://xubuntu.wordpress.com/2007/10/12/howto-set-a-background-image-for-your-panel/ | 08:31 |
| nicofs | leoquant, the panel is still there | 08:37 |
| leoquant | is it a notification area problem? | 08:38 |
| leoquant | i am running gnome at the moment..... | 08:39 |
| nicofs | leoquant, notification area is still there aswell - only without the network-manager applet | 08:39 |
| nicofs | service network-manager is running, iwlist shows available networks - so the device is working... | 08:40 |
| leoquant | your not running xubuntu natty? | 08:40 |
| nicofs | leoquant, no, 10.10, albeit on kernel 2.6.29-arm | 08:41 |
| leoquant | and it happened after an update? | 08:42 |
| nicofs | no - just like that. i was downloading something and the download stalled because the connection was lost (happens quite often with this network) - normally i just disconnect and then reconnect. but right after hitting "disconnect" the whole applet vanished. | 08:43 |
| leoquant | try: sudo nm-applet | 08:43 |
| nicofs | command not found | 08:44 |
| === Ileden_ is now known as Ileden | ||
| leoquant | try this thread: http://newyork.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=448952 | 08:46 |
| leoquant | or try to find it via thunar: /usr/bin/nm-applet | 08:47 |
| leoquant | maybe it really "disappeared" | 08:47 |
| nicofs | there is no /usr/bin/nm-applet... | 08:51 |
| nicofs | how would i get it back? | 08:52 |
| knome | sudo apt-get install network-manager-gnome | 08:53 |
| nicofs | without internet connection? | 08:53 |
| nicofs | ok, several forums have suggested to install wicd... how can i download wicd on this machine and install it on the one without internet? (this pc: x86 - target: ARMv7) | 09:03 |
