| xrdodrx | it seems that xubuntu doesn't come with a font viewer by default? All the ones I've installed are full-blown font managers | 04:17 |
| xrdodrx | I just want a program that shows me a sample of the font when I double-click it. There's one in ubuntu, anyone know the package name? :) | 04:17 |
| Soupermanito | if you make the icons bigger you can see the sample on the file icon | 04:24 |
| xrdodrx | Soupermanito, that's not really a fix and looks bad on my netbook :) | 04:29 |
| Soupermanito | mmm | 04:29 |
| Soupermanito | lemme do some research | 04:29 |
| Soupermanito | xrdodrx, if you only want to see the font you have already installed you can download this http://code.google.com/p/gfont-viewer/ | 04:37 |
| Soupermanito | it works, not to add new fonts and stuff unles you gksu it | 04:38 |
| Soupermanito | still searching for one that provides live sampling | 04:38 |
| xrdodrx | I just want to be able to open a font and see a preview | 04:38 |
| xrdodrx | it's in ubuntu, I know it | 04:38 |
| xrdodrx | Soupermanito, ex http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_MfwRx_4ERx8/S-cYVWgbQII/AAAAAAAABwM/1qoUUpRBErM/s400/install-fonts-in-Ubuntu.jpg | 04:39 |
| Soupermanito | yes, i know what you want, its just that i havent found it yet :P thats why i gave you the thing i did found | 04:40 |
| xrdodrx | oh, sorry, i thought you misunderstood xD | 04:41 |

| sweBers | morning | 05:17 |
| Soupermanito | night | 05:19 |
| sweBers | depends on when you are | 05:19 |
| sweBers | I'm doing my first xubuntu install in the hopes that it doesn't break my display like ubuntu 10.04 did | 05:20 |
| Soupermanito | :) | 05:20 |
| sweBers | err, 11.04 | 05:20 |
| Soupermanito | hope you are lucky | 05:20 |
| * Soupermanito : Xubuntu free of unity since ever! | 05:21 | |
| sweBers | yeah, I think it was the unity UI that broke it. | 05:22 |
| === Captainkrtek1 is now known as Captainkrtek | ||
| sweBers | or at least the changes to the x server for unity | 05:26 |

| Soupermanito | xrdodrx, soooo the gnome thing | 05:32 |
| Soupermanito | is called gnome-font-viewer, and is part of the gnome-control-center | 05:33 |

| xubuntu217 | hello, i am just installing xubuntu. really excited. nice job guys! | 12:58 |
| xubuntu217 | i noticed that there is no multiple monitors setup in Settings Manager, i fixed it now with running xrandr by hand. is fixing xorg.conf my only option on setting permanent configuration for dual monitors? | 13:00 |
| xubuntu217 | off to reboot into installed xubuntu. yeaaa | 13:03 |
| jozefk | o/ | 13:19 |
| jozefk | https://pzt.me/46l0 how to fix this? | 13:21 |
| bazhang | jozefk, how about some synopsis | 13:21 |
| jozefk | synopsis? | 13:22 |
| bazhang | a brief description of your issue. | 13:22 |
| jozefk | ok. this is xubuntu 11.04 x64, and this happened after I enables source code in repositories settings. the server I'm using is in France. after hitting the Reload I got this famous error message | 13:25 |
| jozefk | if I disable back the source code - no error | 13:28 |
| bazhang | why would you need the src | 13:29 |
| jozefk | those error message in synaptic are driving me crazy for long time and already couple of times pushed me aways from ubuntu and ubuntu based distros. I want to make bootable USB flash drive xubuntu for installing it on netbook and in instructions it is mentioned that it is advisable to have source code enabled | 13:30 |
| bazhang | not really | 13:31 |
| jozefk | what are they there for by the way? | 13:32 |
| jozefk | the source code in repository? what is it for? | 13:32 |
| bazhang | some 3rd party tutorial? | 13:32 |
| jozefk | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick | 13:32 |
| bazhang | if you want to build from source | 13:32 |
| jozefk | Make sure the software-sources are activated if you are on a LiveCD (software sources or sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list). You may need to install the python-gnome2 package as well. | 13:33 |
| bazhang | never needed to use it. you used unetbootin? | 13:33 |
| jozefk | python-gnome2 is installed by default | 13:33 |
| bazhang | !info unetbootin | 13:33 |
| ubottu | unetbootin (source: unetbootin): installer of Linux/BSD distributions to a partition or USB drive. In component universe, is optional. Version 471-2ubuntu1 (natty), package size 276 kB, installed size 820 kB | 13:33 |
| jozefk | not yet unetbootin. will try first usb-creator | 13:33 |
| bazhang | I'd skip that and go straight for unetbootin | 13:34 |
| jozefk | usb-creator is installed by default as well | 13:34 |
| bazhang | so is empathy for irc | 13:34 |
| jozefk | empathy for IRC? | 13:34 |
| bazhang | default hardly means the best tool | 13:35 |
| bazhang | its terrible for IRC | 13:35 |
| jozefk | I don't even know empathy is working for IRC | 13:35 |
| bazhang | yet it is default | 13:35 |
| jozefk | well you mentioned :)) | 13:35 |
| jozefk | I use xchat | 13:35 |
| bazhang | same | 13:35 |
| jozefk | it's the no.1 :) | 13:35 |
| bazhang | the sane ones are NOT default for some reason | 13:36 |
| bazhang | like usb-creator-gtk over unetbootin | 13:36 |
| jozefk | then how the default apps are becoming default? what is the criterium? | 13:36 |
| jozefk | they* | 13:37 |
| bazhang | lord only knows | 13:37 |
| bazhang | give usb-creator a shot, then if it does not do it, try unetbootin | 13:37 |
| bazhang | sometimes it takes more than one try, or it seems like it has stopped at 5%, but its worth the wait | 13:38 |
| bazhang | it'll go from 5% finished to 65% finished right when you are starting to look at the clock | 13:38 |
| jozefk | ok I'll try | 13:39 |
| bazhang | good luck :) | 13:39 |
| jozefk | I just start it and after few seconds it's already 50% | 13:41 |
| jozefk | :)) | 13:41 |
| xrdodrx | I'm still having my same font-viewer pdoblem as last night...what I want to do is doule click a font _I have not installed_ and see a preview of it. every font manager I can find is overly complex and only displays installed fonts | 13:42 |
| bazhang | !info font-manager | 13:42 |
| ubottu | font-manager (source: font-manager): font management application for the GNOME desktop. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.5.7-3 (natty), package size 623 kB, installed size 1584 kB | 13:42 |
| xrdodrx | I was recommeded the package "gnome-control-center", but it has absurd dependencies, like gwibber | 13:43 |
| bazhang | gnome, but still installable by xubuntu | 13:43 |
| xrdodrx | bazhang, I tried that, it doesn't do it | 13:43 |
| xrdodrx | It shows installed fonts | 13:43 |
| jozefk | does font matrix works for GTK? | 13:43 |
| bazhang | do what | 13:43 |
| bazhang | apt-cache search font | 13:44 |
| xrdodrx | I want this: http://geekyprojects.com/wp-admin/images/05-01-11-install-fonts-ubuntu/install-fonts-ubuntu-02.gif | 13:44 |
| xrdodrx | no more than that lol | 13:44 |
| xrdodrx | it's in the default ubuntu distro | 13:44 |
| xrdodrx | I'd go so far as to install kde's font installer, but I can't find the package name | 13:45 |
| xrdodrx | I think this is a bbug in xubuntu | 13:45 |
| bazhang | what does apt-cache search font turn up in that regard | 13:46 |
| jozefk | finish :D | 13:46 |
| jozefk | let's see where is that netbook :))) | 13:46 |
| xrdodrx | bazhang, http://paste.ubuntu.com/614167/ | 13:48 |
| bazhang | xrdodrx, no need to paste that, I can d o it in terminal here | 13:49 |
| xrdodrx | sorry :( | 13:49 |
| jozefk | of course it does not work :D | 13:50 |
| bazhang | info tkfont | 13:51 |
| bazhang | whoops | 13:51 |
| jozefk | how simple is PXE install? | 13:52 |
| bazhang | depends | 13:52 |
| bazhang | I'd give the usb-creator another shot, then try unetbootin | 13:53 |
| jozefk | I will try first to see if it is bootable that usb flash. because I got the message: Operating system is missing :) | 13:54 |
| xrdodrx | I had so many problem with USB I invested in an external optical drive | 13:54 |
| jozefk | I have external optical drive :) | 13:54 |
| jozefk | but usb is faster | 13:54 |
| xrdodrx | it's great, and now I can watch my netflix disks on my netbook :D | 13:54 |
| jozefk | and usually it works | 13:54 |
| xrdodrx | bazhang, tkfont? | 13:55 |
| bazhang | xrdodrx, could be | 13:55 |
| jozefk | PXE seems kind of complicated | 13:56 |
| jozefk | or I'm lazy to read now. maybe both :) | 13:56 |
| jozefk | I'll try to format that flash drive and do another usb-creator | 13:58 |
| xrdodrx | DESCRIPTION | 13:58 |
| xrdodrx | tkfont allows you to view the various fonts in X11. It displays a list of fonts, you can then pick which one to display. Useful to find a nice font to use. | 13:58 |
| xrdodrx | bazhang, no, that's not it at all x( | 13:58 |
| xrdodrx | I wish ubuntu's font viewer was installable | 13:59 |
| xrdodrx | :) | 13:59 |
| xrdodrx | :D! | 14:02 |
| xrdodrx | I figured it out | 14:02 |
| xrdodrx | you can install the "imagemagick" package | 14:02 |
| xrdodrx | then from terminal "display example.ttf" | 14:03 |
| xrdodrx | Now if I could just integrate this into thunar | 14:03 |
| jozefk | oh boy you are right XFCE doesn't shows fonts :D | 14:05 |
| xrdodrx | lol it's silly really | 14:05 |
| jozefk | it is shitty really :D | 14:05 |
| jozefk | did you try fontmatrix? | 14:06 |
| xrdodrx | way too much, jozefk | 14:06 |
| xrdodrx | I use it often | 14:07 |
| jozefk | too much? | 14:07 |
| jozefk | then what's wrong? | 14:07 |
| xrdodrx | but just to display a sample of a font | 14:07 |
| jozefk | yeah you are right :) | 14:07 |
| jozefk | maybe opcion | 14:07 |
| jozefk | it's kind of java app | 14:07 |
| jozefk | I don't know. in KDE you can see the fonts with font manager or somthing like that. don't know what it is called but it is in seetings | 14:08 |
| jozefk | and it shows the fonts very nicely | 14:08 |
| xrdodrx | here's display from imagemagick: http://i.imgur.com/vGuy0.png | 14:08 |
| xrdodrx | I just need to get thunar to work with it | 14:09 |
| jozefk | so imagemagick works | 14:09 |
| xrdodrx | and maybe change the default text | 14:09 |
| xrdodrx | correct, very nicely :) | 14:09 |
| jozefk | thunar? I don't know how to do that. I didn't even know fonts can't be seen in xfce by default | 14:09 |
| jozefk | 2nd try with usb-creator failed | 14:12 |
| jozefk | now unetbootin :) | 14:13 |
| jozefk | yes unetbootin stacked at 5% as you said it will | 14:22 |
| jozefk | same message. not working | 14:26 |
| jozefk | I'll just go for external dvd rom really | 14:27 |
| jozefk | it will save my time I'm sure | 14:27 |

| sss314 | Sometimes an empty window name "Debconf on <computer name>" appears for a second and desappear | 19:48 |
| Soupermanito | thats weird | 19:53 |
| xrdodrx | sss314, same | 19:53 |
| xrdodrx | happens when installing stuff from software center, right? | 19:54 |
| xrdodrx | happens to me all the time when installing software, only in software center lol | 19:54 |
| sss314 | xrdodrx, yes, when using the software center | 19:55 |
| xrdodrx | also Soupermanito | 19:55 |
| xrdodrx | I found a really cool way to fix my font display thing | 19:56 |
| xrdodrx | sss314, I guess it's a bug, thought I was the only one tbh | 19:56 |
| Soupermanito | sss314, xrdodrx probably is not a bug, just something that runs while installing | 19:58 |
| sss314 | Soupermanito, It shows a blank gray windows and then it disappears after one second | 19:59 |
| xrdodrx | Soupermanito, it's a bug that it flashes around 5 on every new software install instead of running silently | 19:59 |
| xrdodrx | so yes, it's a bug :| | 19:59 |
| Soupermanito | oh well | 19:59 |
| Soupermanito | never happened to me | 19:59 |
| Sysi | i never use software-center.. | 20:00 |
| Soupermanito | so how do you fixed the font thingy xrdodrx | 20:00 |
| xrdodrx | Soupermanito, imagemagick's 'display' command | 20:00 |
| Soupermanito | D: | 20:01 |
| xrdodrx | I recompiled imagemagick with a different string so now it says "The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog" instead of the default saying | 20:01 |
| xrdodrx | :D | 20:01 |
| xrdodrx | s/jumped/jumps | 20:01 |
| Soupermanito | ah | 20:01 |
| Soupermanito | yeah i see | 20:01 |
| Sysi | (c) KDE | 20:01 |
| Sysi | or is it general GNU | 20:02 |
| Soupermanito | you know you can install fontforge and it comes whit a preview tool | 20:02 |
| === dan__ is now known as dan_l | ||
| xrdodrx | Soupermanito, that's silly and not the same at all | 20:03 |
| xrdodrx | I have fontforge but it can't run and automatically display a preview just from opening a font file in thunar | 20:03 |
| xrdodrx | also, compiling imagemagick so it shows like this was fun :D | 20:03 |
| xrdodrx | http://i.imgur.com/Ymx1h.png | 20:04 |
| Sysi | i preview fonts by setting them as system font and keeping it like that for a week | 20:04 |
| xrdodrx | o.o | 20:04 |
| Soupermanito | xrdodrx, yes, yes it can | 20:04 |
| Soupermanito | i tried it | 20:04 |
| Sysi | i don't fiddle with fonts very much | 20:04 |
| xrdodrx | Sysi, you don't have collections of like 3000 fonts though xD | 20:05 |
| xrdodrx | Soupermanito, command? | 20:05 |
| xrdodrx | Also the fontforge in the ubuntu repos is a year out of date :s | 20:05 |
| xrdodrx | I always end up compiling that too | 20:05 |
| Soupermanito | open whit> fontforge | 20:05 |
| xrdodrx | Soupermanito, :| | 20:06 |
| Soupermanito | xrdodrx, http://imagebin.org/155654 | 20:07 |
| xrdodrx | That;s slower than imagemagick and imo it's a little silly to open it in a font editing tool just to display a font preview | 20:07 |
| xrdodrx | but to each his own | 20:08 |
| xrdodrx | :3 | 20:08 |
| Soupermanito | it works :P | 20:08 |
| Soupermanito | oh but display works pretty neath | 20:09 |
| xrdodrx | I didn't like the default string because it didn't show all the characters | 20:09 |
| xrdodrx | And there was no command line switch to change it either, it's hard-coded in :/ | 20:09 |
| Soupermanito | oh | 20:10 |
| Soupermanito | so you hardchanged it | 20:11 |
| xrdodrx | yeah | 20:11 |
| xrdodrx | and then recompiled imagemagick | 20:11 |
| xrdodrx | *lol* | 20:11 |
| Soupermanito | you know what XD i can open it whit irfanview using wine | 20:11 |
| Soupermanito | XD | 20:11 |
| xrdodrx | :( | 20:11 |
| xrdodrx | why would you do that | 20:11 |
| xrdodrx | that's the least efficient way so far lol | 20:11 |
| Soupermanito | XD | 20:13 |
| Soupermanito | hahaha it probably is, but then again i use irfanview as my default viewer | 20:13 |
| Soupermanito | http://imagebin.org/155655 | 20:14 |
| Sysi | i should find out how to use custom font on webpage.. | 20:14 |
| Soupermanito | <font></font> | 20:15 |
| Soupermanito | XD | 20:15 |
| xrdodrx | Sysi, CSS is the preferred way | 20:15 |
| Sysi | aren't there many native font previewers? dolphin shows them as thumbnails | 20:15 |
| xrdodrx | Sysi, one would think | 20:15 |
| xrdodrx | but there aren't any. | 20:15 |
| Sysi | xrdodrx: but where i need to place that font | 20:15 |
| xrdodrx | Sysi, I don't really understand the question...you can use CSS if the font is going to be installed on both machines just by declaring | 20:16 |
| xrdodrx | font-family: DejaVu Sans | 20:16 |
| xrdodrx | for instance | 20:16 |
| Sysi | but if i want some random font | 20:16 |
| xrdodrx | or you can use a .woff webfont, but only if it's a libre font because of licensing | 20:16 |
| xrdodrx | you can use fontforge to convert any font to .woff format | 20:17 |
| Sysi | ..luckily it doesn't matter that much | 20:17 |
| xrdodrx | IdleOne, seems like you like Dynasty Warriors :P | 20:23 |
| IdleOne | xrdodrx: I'm an old time arcade player :) | 20:23 |
| IdleOne | you can't imagine how many quarters I put into that game | 20:23 |
| jimrew | hi can i turn off the dock in xubuntu 11.04?? | 20:31 |
| Soupermanito | yes | 20:32 |
| jimrew | how? | 20:32 |
| charlie-tca | remove the bottom panel? usually by removing panel 2 | 20:32 |
| Soupermanito | its a panel, be aware if you do that you wont get it back | 20:32 |
| jimrew | lol silly me duh | 20:32 |
| jimrew | thanks :) | 20:32 |
| charlie-tca | not really a dock, we faked it | 20:32 |
| jimrew | you work on xbunt? | 20:33 |
| charlie-tca | who? | 20:33 |
| jimrew | you | 20:33 |
| charlie-tca | no, I don't do any packaging or development, myself. I do some testing and bugs, though | 20:33 |
| jimrew | ohh ok :0 | 20:33 |
| jimrew | :) | 20:33 |
| charlie-tca | And I might be the project leaer | 20:34 |
| charlie-tca | And I might be the project leader | 20:34 |
| jimrew | just never let them make a real dock and you cant turn it off | 20:34 |
| charlie-tca | heh | 20:34 |
| charlie-tca | we just follow the lead that Xfce sets up | 20:35 |
| charlie-tca | They made the panels work really good for us | 20:35 |
| jimrew | ohh ok:) | 20:35 |
| charlie-tca | and ochosi, the guy that really did the work on it. | 20:35 |
| jimrew | so you project leader of xubuntu? | 20:35 |
| charlie-tca | yes | 20:35 |
| jimrew | wow cool :) | 20:36 |
| jimrew | can i ask you something? | 20:36 |
| xrdodrx | jimrew, yeah, it's a pretty small community but it's lately my favorite linux distro :D | 20:36 |
| charlie-tca | sure | 20:36 |
| xrdodrx | and I've used a lot of em :) | 20:36 |
| jimrew | will you put in libreoffce | 20:36 |
| charlie-tca | You can always ask. I answer if I can. :-) | 20:36 |
| charlie-tca | nope | 20:36 |
| jimrew | why? | 20:37 |
| xrdodrx | jimrew, no, you can install it from the software center, it's too large of a package and is no good on slow systems | 20:37 |
| charlie-tca | libreoffice does not conform to the lightweight design we are looking for | 20:37 |
| jimrew | ohh ok | 20:37 |
| charlie-tca | We put in abiword and gnumeric because they use less disk space and ram | 20:37 |
| xrdodrx | Also, here's a good thing about xfce | 20:37 |
| xrdodrx | when you install it you don't get the libreoffice-gtk package | 20:37 |
| charlie-tca | You can add any application in the repositories, though | 20:38 |
| xrdodrx | so you can choose your own theme and it won't carry over to libreoffice if it's dark | 20:38 |
| xrdodrx | :D | 20:38 |
| jimrew | im useing xbuntu and kubuntu becuse i dont like gnome 3 | 20:38 |
| charlie-tca | I have used Xubuntu since it came out in 2006 | 20:38 |
| jimrew | wow | 20:38 |
| jimrew | xubuntu is very good :) | 20:38 |
| charlie-tca | I do test Ubuntu and Kubuntu, though | 20:38 |
| jimrew | unity and gnome 3 to much RAM | 20:39 |
| charlie-tca | yup, for some machines | 20:40 |
| jimrew | is it ok if i add you to bud list i got to go | 20:40 |
| charlie-tca | sure, but it is best to come in here and ask things. | 20:40 |
| jimrew | ok bye :) | 20:41 |
| jimrew | i like xubuntu :) bye | 20:41 |
| * charlie-tca going hide again now | 20:43 | |
| EpicCyndaquil | hey guys, on a fresh install of xubuntu, I'm having an issue where I have to click above things: the cursor isn't accurate. Is there a simple fix? | 21:40 |
| Soupermanito | >accurate? | 21:44 |
| EpicCyndaquil | okay, I'll try to be more precise. To click on a button, I must be about 3cm above it | 21:44 |
| EpicCyndaquil | this goes for anything and everything I need to click on | 21:45 |
| Sysi | really weird, did you try relogin/reboot? | 21:46 |
| Sysi | updates installed? | 21:46 |
| Soupermanito | sounds like something that happened to me ages ago on X | 21:46 |
| EpicCyndaquil | updates are not yet installed | 21:47 |
| EpicCyndaquil | but I got the iso today | 21:47 |
| EpicCyndaquil | from the official US archive | 21:47 |
| Soupermanito | EpicCyndaquil, you should update your video drivers | 21:47 |
| Soupermanito | gksu jockey-gtk | 21:47 |
| Soupermanito | and choose the best ones | 21:47 |
| EpicCyndaquil | I tried to fix with the experimental 3d nvidia driver it suggested, did not help, but I'll see what that throws at me | 21:48 |
| EpicCyndaquil | yep, that's all it shows | 21:49 |
| EpicCyndaquil | and it's active | 21:49 |
| EpicCyndaquil | looks like there's an X update, I'll just hope that fixes it | 21:50 |
| EpicCyndaquil | my laptop is on an Ubuntu 10.10 base with xubuntu-desktop, so I wasn't sure if this was an 11.04 issue | 21:50 |
| charlie-tca | If a restart doesn't fix it, try either renaming or removing ~/.config. You will have to re-do all the customizations for the desktop and panels, but it might fix it. | 21:51 |
| EpicCyndaquil | I haven't done any custom config yet. It's also worth noting that the top bar seems to be off: it's too tall (blank space at the top) and seems to be too much toward the left and has begun to mirror? | 21:53 |
| charlie-tca | You upgraded from Ubuntu 10.10 to Xubuntu 11.04? | 21:56 |
| EpicCyndaquil | not on this computer | 21:57 |
| EpicCyndaquil | that was regarding another, apologies | 21:57 |
| EpicCyndaquil | and restart didn't fix, so I'll try killing ~/.config | 21:58 |
| EpicCyndaquil | trying another restart.... | 21:59 |
| EpicCyndaquil | same issues. | 22:00 |
| EpicCyndaquil | any other ideas? | 22:02 |
| Sysi | have you tried propietary driver? or currently using it | 22:02 |
| EpicCyndaquil | I've tried it, can try again if you'd like | 22:03 |
| EpicCyndaquil | no visual difference between the two | 22:03 |
| EpicCyndaquil | the whole screen positioning seems off, honestly | 22:05 |
| EpicCyndaquil | the bottom userbar is too low, can only see about half of it | 22:07 |
| EpicCyndaquil | maybe I'll try playing with some compiz settings in a bit, otherwise I'm clueless | 22:08 |
| charlie-tca | reset your monitor? | 22:16 |
| EpicCyndaquil | the issue with that is that I'm dual-booting with Windows XP, can't reset it every time | 22:16 |
| charlie-tca | MIne has a button to adjust it, pushing it fixes that "not quite on the monitor thing" | 22:16 |
| EpicCyndaquil | I suppose I could try | 22:16 |
| EpicCyndaquil | but again, it's not my computer, and having to push a monitor button might frustrate this person. | 22:17 |
| jimrew | how do i enable compiz in xfce? | 22:17 |
| charlie-tca | EpicCyndaquil: then maybe this is not for them? | 22:17 |
| jimrew | how do i enable compiz in xfce? | 22:18 |
| charlie-tca | jimrew: install first, then I think you use compiz --replace to run it in place of xfwm | 22:18 |
| jimrew | ok :) | 22:19 |
| EpicCyndaquil | ah, maybe I should try that on this computer... | 22:21 |
| EpicCyndaquil | (compiz instead of xfwm) | 22:21 |
| EpicCyndaquil | interestingly, it seems Windows XP is booting faster than xubuntu | 22:23 |
| EpicCyndaquil | my mind is blown | 22:23 |
| Sysi | ten year old OS, should fly on modern hardware | 22:23 |
| Sysi | too bad usability and security sucks | 22:24 |
| Sysi | did you count loggin in, AV installed? | 22:24 |
| jimrew | i got it to work but the window butons go away and i cant make it stay on after restart | 22:26 |
| jimrew | hello? | 22:28 |
| charlie-tca | yeah | 22:29 |
| jimrew | i got it to work but the window butons go away and i cant make it stay on after restart | 22:29 |
| charlie-tca | no idea. Maybe the window buttons are tied to unity now? | 22:29 |
| charlie-tca | I have never tried to use compiz, myself | 22:29 |
| Sysi | you need compiz-plugin for window decorations | 22:29 |
| Sysi | it stays on reboot if you rm -rf ~/.cache/sessions and then save session on logout | 22:30 |
| jimrew | ok just a sec | 22:31 |
| Soupermanito | ok so, i have vlc volume at 400% and all the alsamixer or xfce4-mixer at 100 and still volume is awfully low | 23:49 |
