| JonathanD | Howdy InHisName | 10:28 |
| InHisName | what's the key command to wake up ubuntu from hibernate and key cmd to wake up from suspend ? | 10:29 |
| JonathanD | is there one? | 10:30 |
| JonathanD | I thought just bashing the keyboard did it. | 10:30 |
| InHisName | If I were an angry bird, maybe | 10:30 |
| JonathanD | though I think I usually hit the power button. | 10:30 |
| JonathanD | on my laptop. | 10:30 |
| InHisName | On mine was BLUE+F# I forgot which number | 10:31 |
| JonathanD | that puts it to sleep, on mine | 10:32 |
| JonathanD | no idea if it wakes it. power button is more easily accessed. | 10:32 |
| InHisName | Yea, right | 10:32 |
| rmg51 | morning JonathanD InHisName | 10:33 |
| InHisName | Either BLUE+any F key or BLUE+hib key for wake up from hibernate | 10:33 |
| InHisName | My desktop doesn't do BLUE | 10:34 |
| JonathanD | Hello. | 10:34 |
| rmg51 | power button to wake up from either one | 10:34 |
| rmg51 | with Teddy's System76 laptop, if you close the top, it wakes from sleep as soon as you open it | 10:35 |
| InHisName | My test box has gone to some kinda deep sleep, power still on, fans spinning. No video sync. Mouse active power but no mouse on screen. Duh no monitor sync! | 10:37 |
| JonathanD | rmg51: I hate that feature. | 10:38 |
| JonathanD | THe sleep on close thing. | 10:38 |
| InHisName | Tried momentary power button push, not 9 seconds. Nothing | 10:38 |
| === rmg511 is now known as rmg51 | ||
| knightzero | Morning all. | 14:28 |
| InHisName | morning to you, knightzero | 14:48 |
| InHisName | test box still giving me grief at booting well enough yet. | 16:12 |
| InHisName | Sometimes I get into gui desktop but only mouse arrow moves. No actions or anything clickable. Clock not updating. None of the Ctrl-alt keys work or any others either. Not even ctrl-alt-del. Only hold power 10 sec works. Then dirty disks. Uggh. | 16:14 |
| InHisName | Is there a way to reduce the screen pixel size of desktop to lower number via text mode in recovery ? | 16:15 |
| InHisName | Morning's almost over, anyone else awake yet? | 16:20 |
| * waltman *yawns* | 16:21 | |
| ChinnoDog | I'm hungry | 16:22 |
| InHisName | ChinnoDog: before you go grazing for food, see above ^^ How to change screen resolution ? | 16:22 |
| ChinnoDog | I don't know. I stopped knowing anything about X after xorg.conf went away | 16:27 |
| ChinnoDog | oh.. | 16:28 |
| ChinnoDog | If you go into recovery I belive you can configure x | 16:28 |
| ChinnoDog | I forget the command. xconfigure? | 16:28 |
| ChinnoDog | (does that still work?) | 16:28 |
| InHisName | no, nor xconfig | 17:07 |
| andrew | So... why doesn't Libre Office use the fancy Unity menubar? | 17:27 |
| InHisName1 | Well, I got into gui and cranked resolution down to 1024x768 and see if that stops the disabling. | 17:28 |
| andrew | There's a fix, sudo apt-get install lo-menubar | 17:32 |
| andrew | If anyone misses the 'world clock' thing in unity: http://www.reddit.com/r/Ubuntu/comments/h4pwp/where_did_the_world_clock_go_in_unity/c1skf2h | 17:33 |

| andrew | pleia2: ^ | 17:33 |
| * pleia2 doesn't use gnome | 17:34 | |
| pleia2 | or unity | 17:34 |
| InHisName1 | should I try to clean up these 'errors' ? dpkg-query: warning: parsing file '/var/lib/dpkg/status' near line 51241 package 'virtualbox-2.2': error in Config-Version string '2.2.4-47978_Ubuntu_hardy': invalid character in revision number how to go about fixing them ? | 17:35 |
| InHisName1 | 17:35 | |
| andrew | pleia2: fine, be that way | 17:37 |
| andrew | :) | 17:37 |
| andrew | pleia2: Figured you'd get asked that more likely than I would | 17:38 |
| pleia2 | I tend to use the "I don't use gnome or unity" line when I get questions like that :) | 17:38 |
| * pleia2 isn't much of a support person these days | 17:38 | |
| InHisName1 | what does pleia2 use ? | 17:39 |
| pleia2 | xfce | 17:39 |
| andrew | be honest, you use win7 | 17:40 |
| pleia2 | I don't even think I've seen win7 | 17:40 |
| InHisName1 | win7 is a desktop for ubuntu ? | 17:41 |
| pleia2 | no, the microsoft OS | 17:41 |
| InHisName1 | much more controlled inside vbox tucked into a little window in corner. | 17:42 |
| InHisName1 | any clues on how to clean up old junk appearing in dpkg/status ? | 17:43 |
| andrew | So what's up with Mark preferring iPhone over android? | 17:44 |
| JonathanD | She actually runs windows ME | 17:59 |
| JonathanD | Thats what I heard, anyway. | 17:59 |
| andrew | JonathanD: so that's what's causing the hard drive grinding noise coming out of the holodeck? | 18:01 |
| JonathanD | es | 18:05 |
| JonathanD | yes | 18:05 |
| InHisName1 | sudo aptitude purge virtualbox-2.2 that got rid of those pesky errors in dpkg | 20:09 |
