| ipv6hermit | hey guys, I lost all my windows title bar and window controls | 04:42 |
|---|---|---|
| number9 | So after a hard restart I am unable to login from the splash screen or gdm. I can login from a vterm, or in a recovery session. I made a new user and can login under that name. I tried changing my splash to text and then running sudo service gdm start, and again could login for newuser but not myuser | 04:43 |
| ipv6hermit | I'm using 11.04 | 04:43 |
| number9 | ipv6hermit: How did you manage that? I would like to know so I could make that happen for me. | 04:45 |
| ipv6hermit | I can't find information on this for xubuntu | 04:46 |
| ipv6hermit | only for ubuntu | 04:46 |
| ipv6hermit | it has to do with the window manager but I don't know too much about xfce | 04:47 |
| Rodensky | using zubuntu 10.04 | 04:54 |
| Rodensky | suddenly skype sttoped working | 04:54 |
| Rodensky | it shuts down seconds after i try to open it | 04:54 |
| KM0201 | Rodensky: cuz microsoft bought it | 04:54 |
| KM0201 | Rodensky: what have you done recently? | 04:55 |
| KM0201 | anything | 04:55 |
| Rodensky | nothing actually | 04:55 |
| Rodensky | i havn't installed or uninstalled anything | 04:55 |
| KM0201 | do you possibly have a zombie'd skype running? | 04:55 |
| Rodensky | nope | 04:55 |
| KM0201 | ok | 04:55 |
| Rodensky | and i also tried rebooting first to make sure | 04:55 |
| KM0201 | well, start it in terminal, and see what error you get | 04:55 |
| Rodensky | ok a sec | 04:56 |
| Rodensky | $ skype | 04:56 |
| Rodensky | Aborted | 04:56 |
| Rodensky | thats it | 04:56 |
| KM0201 | hmm, sounds like a microsoft error message | 04:56 |
| KM0201 | lol | 04:56 |
| Rodensky | nothing else shows :\ | 04:56 |
| KM0201 | i dunno | 04:57 |
| KM0201 | maybe reinstall? | 04:57 |
| Rodensky | also didn't work | 04:57 |
| KM0201 | maybe you pulled in an upgrade on it, and didn't realize it. | 04:57 |
| Rodensky | i installed xubuntu 10.04 as a fresh install after formatting | 04:57 |
| KM0201 | what version do you have instaled.. ? skype --ver | 04:58 |
| Rodensky | and skype worked untill a few days ago | 04:58 |
| Rodensky | Skype 2.2.0.25 | 04:58 |
| KM0201 | same version i have... | 04:58 |
| KM0201 | how did you install it? a repo, or the .deb from skype.com, | 04:58 |
| KM0201 | or some other way | 04:58 |
| Rodensky | repo | 04:59 |
| Rodensky | i guess it's time to finely replace it with an open source software :) | 05:00 |

| ipv6hermit | hey guys, I'm locked out of xfce | 05:13 |
| CrustyBarnacle | Anyone having trouble starting an xfce session? | 05:13 |
| ipv6hermit | I never had issues like these on xubuntu 9.10 | 05:14 |
| ipv6hermit | I'm disliking 11.04 a lot now | 05:14 |
| Rodensky | i was once locked and it took me a few hours to try shift+alt to replace the language :P | 05:14 |
| CrustyBarnacle | ipv6hermit: I've seen a couple others having this issue. XFCE works for me on Ubuntu 11.04. | 05:15 |
| CrustyBarnacle | ipv6hermit: Did you try the suggested: "apt-get --reinstall install xubuntu-desktop" | 05:15 |
| ipv6hermit | now I will try it now | 05:15 |
| ipv6hermit | s/now/no/g | 05:16 |
| ipv6hermit | I was prob rebooting when that was suggested to me | 05:16 |
| ipv6hermit | thanks guys | 05:16 |
| Rodensky | have a nice say people! | 05:17 |
| ipv6hermit | hello everyone, I have an issue with xubuntu 11.04, I cannot initiate a xfce session. is there a xfce log file I can look at to see what's going on? I don't know much about xfce | 06:46 |
| Sysi | did it work before, did you change something before it stopped working or it just stopped working? | 06:49 |
| ipv6hermit | it sort of just stopped working | 06:50 |
| Sysi | you could try login to virtual console (ctrl alt F6) and rm -rf ~/.ICEauthority (ctrl alt F7 or F8 to go back to gui) | 06:51 |
| ipv6hermit | Sysi: I don't have that file | 06:53 |
| Sysi | something like that? try writing .IC and pressing tab | 06:53 |
| ipv6hermit | Sysi: I have it, I just delted it | 06:54 |
| ipv6hermit | I'm using a terminal now with IRSSI | 06:54 |
| ipv6hermit | with screen | 06:55 |
| ipv6hermit | Sysi: I'm able to log into xfce now, but the original issue persists, all the windows I open do not have a title bar or a close and minimize button | 07:01 |
| ipv6hermit | this was the issue at first, then I tried the xfce-session friends | 07:02 |

| knome | linsux, greybird is gtk+xfwm, so as long as you use xfce in fedora (and have a new enough murrine), everything should work okay | 14:22 |

| SyGeek | Xubuntu 11.04's GUI now feels as bloated as Ubuntu's GUI | 16:06 |
| SyGeek | I finally had to install Xfce and other stuff from scratch on ubuntu server | 16:06 |
| charlie-tca | isn't choice great! | 16:06 |
| charlie-tca | um, you do know server is not really made for gui's, right? | 16:06 |
| SyGeek | yes.. | 16:07 |
| SyGeek | But that's the only choice i had while at the same time being a part of Ubuntu | 16:08 |
| knome | what's wrong with the 11.04 gui? | 16:08 |
| SyGeek | It is bloated and has eliminates the efficiency of use in my crapware.. | 16:09 |
| SyGeek | The GUI runs like a turtle | 16:09 |
| knome | bloated in which way? | 16:09 |
| drc | And if I remember the old fable, the turtle won the race. | 16:09 |
| SyGeek | Bloated in GUI sense, eliminating the efficiency of speed (in old hardwares). | 16:09 |
| SyGeek | no offense guys, just sharing a opinion | 16:10 |
| SyGeek | *an | 16:11 |
| knome | SyGeek, well, bloat might not be the right word, as in xfce there is not "useless" stuff, but the accessibility is better and there are some new core features | 16:11 |
| drc | SyGeek: Reading between the lines (Web sites, reviews, blogs), it looks (to me) like Xubuntu (at least) is taking the middle ground between the "bloated" GNOME/KDE and the newer really lightweight DE's (Lubuntu, puppy, etc). For me, that is a Good Thing (tm). | 16:13 |
| drc | And one thing I like atout Xubuntu/XFCE is that when I uninstall a default app (say Thunderbird), I don't have to worry about it being tied into the core DE (say, Elvolution) | 16:15 |
| SyGeek | I know, the new features are really worth using but now that Xubuntu has become practically slow to a point that I can call it unusable (on my hardware). It no longer satisfies my hardware. I tried limiting it's GUI but countless tries and no success lead me to leaving it | 16:15 |
| drc | Having older hardware really does make a big difference. | 16:17 |
| SyGeek | The only reason I went for Xubuntu in the first place was because of it's ease of use and fast UI | 16:17 |
| drc | SyGeek: Maybe a minimal install + xfce (not xubuntu-desktop)? | 16:18 |
| knome | SyGeek, what is your hardware then? | 16:18 |
| SyGeek | drc: Ubuntu server + xfce served the exact same purpose now | 16:21 |
| SyGeek | knome: http://pastebin.com/EgeFiErg | 16:21 |

| mbn_18 | Hi, where can I add language to xubuntu live image. | 18:14 |
| charlie-tca | Add a language that is not there yet? | 18:15 |
| charlie-tca | that would be a bug. You can file it using ubuntu-bug ubiquity | 18:15 |
| mbn_18 | I want to write in a diffrent language aditional to english. | 18:16 |
| charlie-tca | When you start the live cd, you should get a whole list of languages that you can pick from | 18:16 |
| Sysi | live images only have complete support for english, but there should be at least some support for other languages, and all keyboard layout | 18:16 |
| mbn_18 | Where do I add a keyboard layout? | 18:17 |
| charlie-tca | Before you even start, there should be a language menu | 18:17 |
| charlie-tca | during the installation, you are asked for keyboard layout | 18:17 |
| Sysi | every layout available should be there by default, what one are you looking for? | 18:17 |
| charlie-tca | um, maybe start with the download, and run the live cd? | 18:18 |
| mbn_18 | Will it change the interface language? I prefer it will stay english | 18:18 |
| mbn_18 | Sysi, hebrew | 18:19 |
| charlie-tca | The very first screen asks you to select your language, you can pick english there. Then during the installation, you again will pick a language to have the finished installation run in | 18:19 |
| mbn_18 | I want the interface to be in English and to be able to write in both languages | 18:19 |
| charlie-tca | hebrew is already on the cd | 18:19 |
| mbn_18 | I run the OS from the flash. I cant install it. | 18:21 |
| mbn_18 | Whatever I do I dont see the language switcher | 18:21 |
| charlie-tca | Try doing an installation with the alternate image then. It usually has more options | 18:22 |
| Sysi | you can change layout from settings -> keyboard and get quick swap with xkb panel plugin that is know to be somewhat buggy | 18:23 |
| mbn_18 | under setting I have -> Keyboard input method | 18:27 |
| Sysi | not that one | 18:27 |
| Sysi | there should be just generic keyboard settings with layout-tab | 18:28 |
| charlie-tca | What version of Xubuntu? | 18:28 |
| mbn_18 | 11.04 | 18:28 |
| charlie-tca | menu -> Settings -> Settings Manager -> Keyboard | 18:28 |
| mbn_18 | Also have input method switcher | 18:29 |

| robert | Hello, i'm new to xubuntu...I cannot connect to internet. In gnome I usually used network manager applet, but in x it isn't working. | 18:59 |
| robert | Tried xfapplet, but without a result | 19:01 |
| Soupermanito | mmm | 19:03 |
| charlie-tca | What do you mean, it's not working? It is exactly the same network manager as Ubuntu | 19:03 |
| Soupermanito | robert, try nm-connection-editor | 19:04 |
| robert | nm-applet it is, it appear for few seconds after log in and dissapear | 19:04 |
| robert | like bluetooth apllet too | 19:05 |
| robert | @Soupermanito, it's the conn editor, I cant connect with it. | 19:06 |
| Soupermanito | robert, does your modem autoconnects to the internet? or you have to connect manually, adding your password and such on the machine? | 19:07 |
| robert | it's mobile broadband by bluetooth, I have to click 'connect' and type password to unlock pass database. With a cable it autoconnects. | 19:09 |
| Soupermanito | oh ok | 19:09 |
| robert | Maybe change settings to autoconn somehow? | 19:10 |
| Soupermanito | :( have never seen a bluethoot network thing robert | 19:10 |
| robert | By cable it's simple, but how to do it with bt ? | 19:10 |
| Soupermanito | try runing nm-connection-editor | 19:11 |

| Soupermanito | yes robert but writing nm-connection-editor will launch it anyway | 19:21 |
| robert | Wait...I can set autoconn it that file maybe | 19:22 |

| zylinder | could anyone explain to me (beginner :)) what exactly the busybox is and what it does? | 20:16 |
| zylinder | because I had to install xubuntu 4 or 5 times now | 20:17 |
| zylinder | because I would send me straight to the busybox after a few (sometimes 1, other times around 20) restarts | 20:18 |
| zylinder | it* | 20:18 |
| zylinder | unfortunately I can't really say what is causing it | 20:18 |
| charlie-tca | !busybox | 20:19 |
| charlie-tca | !info busybox | 20:19 |
| ubottu | busybox (source: busybox): Tiny utilities for small and embedded systems. In component universe, is optional. Version 1:1.17.1-10ubuntu1 (natty), package size 283 kB, installed size 492 kB | 20:19 |
| charlie-tca | basically means the startup failed for some reason | 20:21 |
| zylinder | mh | 20:23 |
| zylinder | thanks, but that doesn't really help me :) | 20:23 |
| charlie-tca | I know. We are in a meeting right now. Can you wait a few minutes? | 20:23 |
| zylinder | as it is more or less random, could it be that my harddrive has some kind of defect? | 20:23 |
| zylinder | sure | 20:23 |
| DarkEra | still trying to figure out how to rip cd's in Xubuntu 11.04. | 20:28 |
| charlie-tca | I use cdripper | 20:28 |
| DarkEra | I will have a look at it. Thanks charlie-tca | 20:31 |
| charlie-tca | seems like the easiest thing for me | 20:32 |
| jarnos | just curious, why gmusicbrowser replaced exaile? | 20:35 |
| charlie-tca | better support from upstream | 20:36 |
| Sysi | lighter too | 20:37 |
| jarnos | Sysi, do you mean binary size? At least adding folders to library is heavier operation than by exaile. | 20:47 |
| Sysi | i think it uses less ram, but i haven't really used either of those | 20:47 |
| rob2 | Hi, it's me again. The nm-applet still doesn't want to appear, even when it appear (couple of times delete & add notification area) it doesn't show available connections. I am stuck to gnome :( | 20:57 |
| zylinder | charlie-tca: hi again, any chance your meeting is over by now? | 21:03 |
| zylinder | :) | 21:03 |
| charlie-tca | getting there | 21:03 |
| zylinder | groovy | 21:04 |
| DarkEra | O.k. i'm convinced, on the netbook Xubuntu is running great. I'm thinking about to switch to it too on the laptop. But.... what to take, 32 or 64Bit? It has a Core 2 Duo T5550 1.83Ghz processor and 3GB of RAM | 21:18 |
| zylinder | I'd opt for 32 bit, but I'm a beginner :) | 21:19 |
| Sysi | you wont really gain anything from 64b with that | 21:19 |
| charlie-tca | 32bit should be fine | 21:20 |
| charlie-tca | zylinder: it won't hit busybox everytime? | 21:20 |
| charlie-tca | That makes it much more difficult. What file system did you use to partition it? | 21:20 |
| DarkEra | Thank you all :) | 21:21 |
| DarkEra | i'm off to burn a cd | 21:21 |
| charlie-tca | zylinder: is it ext4? | 21:22 |
| * charlie-tca thinks that should be the default file system now | 21:22 | |
| zylinder | charlie-tca, no it doesnt | 21:23 |
| zylinder | charlie-tca, at some point (seems random) it'll boot GRUB | 21:24 |
| zylinder | and then, regardless of what I choose, it will load the busybox | 21:24 |
| zylinder | every time | 21:24 |
| charlie-tca | I would suggest booting to recovery menu, and running fsck from there. | 21:25 |
| zylinder | only reinstalling help (ed me so far) | 21:25 |
| zylinder | but even in recovery mode it loads the busybox | 21:25 |
| charlie-tca | If it boots to the grub, look at what the default highlighted? | 21:25 |
| charlie-tca | busybox is normal for recovery load, sometimes. | 21:25 |
| zylinder | the highlighted one is xubuntu (linux x.xxx etc) | 21:25 |
| zylinder | mh | 21:25 |
| zylinder | so busybox knows fsck? | 21:26 |
| charlie-tca | Since it is not loading all the stuff, it will go there | 21:26 |
| charlie-tca | no, there should be a recovery menu you can use | 21:26 |
| zylinder | mh when does that come up thouhg? normally? | 21:26 |
| charlie-tca | normally | 21:26 |
| zylinder | do I have to edit the boot parameters or something to get there? | 21:27 |
| zylinder | hm | 21:27 |
| charlie-tca | If it doesn't, you will need to boot to a live cd desktop and run fsck from there | 21:27 |
| zylinder | meh, unfortunately I have very limited resources, as I just moved | 21:27 |
| charlie-tca | you shouldn't need any parameters. It should be a grub menu entry, and boot right to a menu | 21:27 |
| charlie-tca | check the hard drive cable, if you are okay opening the case. Maybe it came loose? | 21:28 |
| zylinder | it's a notebook and I checked the connection | 21:28 |
| zylinder | everything seems fine to me | 21:28 |
| charlie-tca | yeah, that's a different creature than a box | 21:28 |
| zylinder | is there a way to check the drive via fsck while Xubuntu is up and running? | 21:29 |
| charlie-tca | still, can run the live desktop either from cd or usb | 21:29 |
| charlie-tca | no, because it can't check a mounted partition | 21:29 |
| zylinder | okay, so I have to get my hands on a live cd somehow. | 21:30 |
| charlie-tca | yup | 21:30 |
| zylinder | what would fsck tell me though? | 21:30 |
| charlie-tca | if there is anything wrong with the drive | 21:30 |
| charlie-tca | It could have bad sectors or a file messed up on it | 21:30 |
| * charlie-tca doesn't sound very technical | 21:31 | |
| === Sysi- is now known as Sysi | ||
| zylinder | okay | 21:31 |
| zylinder | how random is "stuff" written on a hard drive? | 21:32 |
| zylinder | I mean, if a system rashes randomly it is likely that it is the RAM (hence the name), correct? | 21:32 |
| zylinder | crashes* | 21:32 |
| charlie-tca | mostly, in Linux, it isn't. It is pretty much in sequence | 21:33 |
| charlie-tca | ram is memory | 21:33 |
| zylinder | yes, I know, but the memory is used randomly isn't it? | 21:33 |
| charlie-tca | hard drive is different, it is the thing where data is stored | 21:33 |
| charlie-tca | yes, but memory erases every time you restart | 21:34 |
| zylinder | that's what I mean | 21:34 |
| charlie-tca | There is also a memory checker in grub and on the cd | 21:34 |
| charlie-tca | you could run the memory check, but it takes a few hours to run | 21:34 |
| zylinder | so a bad sector on the hard drive could be identified by, its getting technical again, loading studd on the disk, right? | 21:34 |
| charlie-tca | it will tell you if it finds something | 21:34 |
| zylinder | stuff* | 21:34 |
| charlie-tca | a bad sector would be a spot on the hard drive that is unreliable. | 21:35 |
| charlie-tca | If it gets used, you would have intermittent file system errors, which is dropping to busybox. | 21:35 |
| zylinder | but, in theory, if there is an unreliable sector on my hard drive, shouldn't the system be fine as long as the important files are saved on a "good" sector? | 21:35 |
| charlie-tca | If ram goes bad (memory), usually you will have trouble during bios checks or while actually using the system. | 21:35 |
| charlie-tca | There is no way to know which file got on the bad spot. If it went bad after you installed, or is very intermittent, then a critical file could be on that spot, and fsck will tell you that. | 21:36 |
| zylinder | okay, okay, fsck it is :) | 21:37 |
| zylinder | just trying to get around that somehow | 21:37 |
| charlie-tca | The memory issue usually shows up after the desktop comes up, when you are trying to do something and it freezes everything. | 21:37 |
| zylinder | as it would mean formatting my backup usb stick and everything :( | 21:37 |
| charlie-tca | got a cd drive? | 21:37 |
| zylinder | yop | 21:37 |
| charlie-tca | burn a cd-r instead | 21:38 |
| zylinder | okay, I have to get my hands on one of those first :) | 21:38 |
| charlie-tca | But try that recovery menu first. Maybe if you pick it, it will let you go to the menu | 21:38 |
| zylinder | If I remember correctly and understand the boot sequence correctly, I should be able to bring up GRUB during every boot, right? | 21:39 |
| zylinder | maybe the recovery ption will work fine as long as my system is stable | 21:39 |
| charlie-tca | right. press any key right after the strange symbols appear in 11.04, or hold right shift at that point for older releases | 21:40 |
| zylinder | strange symbols? | 21:40 |
| zylinder | :) | 21:40 |
| charlie-tca | yeah, right after the bios checks | 21:40 |
| zylinder | Do you have an illegal hacked version or something :p | 21:40 |
| charlie-tca | I don't what they really are. A couple of rectangles, maybe? | 21:40 |
| zylinder | oh that's what you mean | 21:41 |
| zylinder | so any key will do...interesting | 21:41 |
| charlie-tca | I have the menu turned on full time. since I have more than one release on my drives | 21:41 |
| charlie-tca | but you have to be quick, if you wait more than a second or two, it won't stop | 21:41 |
| zylinder | okay, I will try that right away, thank you. are there any parameters I should use or smth? | 21:42 |
| zylinder | and how long does it take (round about (80gb drive)) | 21:42 |
| charlie-tca | no parameters if it is in the menu, should take about 5 minutes | 21:54 |
| === em_ is now known as em | ||
| zylinder | charlie-tca, thank you, take care | 22:03 |
| charlie-tca | You are welcome | 22:05 |

| elektronisch | does xorg, or whatever the X server is these days, support a function similar to windows 7 snap windows? | 23:27 |
| ochosi | elektronisch: that kind of functionality is in the window-manager | 23:28 |
| ochosi | in xubuntu's case it's xfwm4 | 23:28 |
| ochosi | at the moment it doesn't support that feature, but it's planned and half-implemented in git, so it might land in the next version | 23:28 |
| elektronisch | ah, yeah i forgot. its been years since i've used linux :/ i'll keep my eyes out for the upcoming feature | 23:29 |
| ochosi | you can also use compiz with xubuntu, compiz has that feature afaik | 23:30 |
| wolfy_ | sudo apt-get install compiz | 23:32 |
| wolfy_ | ? | 23:32 |
