[06:16] <MJBrune> hey
[06:16] <MJBrune> anyone here
[06:16] <MJBrune> I am having sound troubles
[06:16] <MJBrune> I can hear sound but its really quiet and everything in the sound mixer is turned up for both alsa and pulse
[06:18] <orngjce223> Generic "is this thing on" question: Have you checked the volume level on your external speakers, if there is any?
[06:23] <MJBrune> orngjce223: yes I checked both
[06:28] <MJBrune> orngjce223: is there anyway to increase my volume past 100%?
[06:28] <MJBrune> i know in vlc you can go to 400%
[06:28] <MJBrune> is there something like that for the whole system?
[06:28] <orngjce223> Unfortunately, I don't know of anything like that.
[06:29] <MJBrune> so i have to run everything though vlc to get decent sound?
[06:30] <orngjce223> Try #opensourcemusicians they might know of a software amplifier you can use or something. I'm stumped :/
[08:08] <aatk> MJBrune: are you sure the speakers are okay, have you tried plugging another device in and checked cables?
[08:09] <aatk> I've spent hours trying to fix quiet audio to find the cable was damaged in the end
[08:23] <MJBrune> aatk: yes I have
[08:23] <MJBrune> aatk: I have checked the ports and cords
[08:24] <MJBrune> its 100% software
[11:09] <MJBrune> How can I make xfce terminal start at 120 by 30 instead of 80 by 24?
[11:23] <Sysi> MJBrune: mousepad ~/.config/Terminal/terminalrc
[11:24] <MJBrune> Sysi: ty

[17:17] <KM0201> shoot.
[17:18] <derpadong> Why does everything lok so big when in 1360x768 resolution?
[17:18] <derpadong> look*
[17:18] <KM0201> what looks big?
[17:18] <KM0201> and are you sure you're at 1360x768
[17:19] <derpadong> Firefox and Yes Im sure. Ive set the TV to it and Xubuntu
[17:20] <KM0201> hmm, i dunno.. what exactly looks "big" in firefox? the buttons, the menu, ?  or does the whole OS look larger than normal?
[17:21] <derpadong> Whole OS looks larfer than normal
[17:21] <derpadong> larger*
[17:22] <KM0201> derpadong: and yu're sure the OS is using htat resolutioon?
[17:23] <derpadong> Positive
[17:23] <KM0201> hmm
[17:23] <KM0201> i don't use Xubuntu.
[17:23] <KM0201> but.. i think there's a "Zoom" feature.. you've probably got that set to high.
[17:24] <KM0201> Unit193: does xfce have that zoom feature?
[17:24] <KM0201> i know gnomme does
[17:24] <derpadong> What are you using then?
[17:24] <KM0201> lxde
[17:24] <Unit193> derpadong: Anything fun with the DPI?
[17:24] <KM0201> the most awesome-sauce GUI there is.
[17:24] <KM0201> lol
[17:25] <derpadong> Not that I know of
[17:25] <derpadong> I will have to test it out later
[17:25] <derpadong> Im going to probably reinstall Ubuntu
[17:25] <derpadong> Or just use xfce
[17:26] <derpadong> with xubuntu
[17:26] <derpadong> Im going to dual boot
[17:26] <Unit193> Are you going to be using this on TV?
[17:26] <derpadong> Yes
[17:26] <Unit193> !mythbuntu
[17:27] <Unit193> Is that maybe somethting you would bbe looking for?
[17:27] <Unit193> I think it's switching to XFCE too
[17:27] <derpadong> I know what mythbuntu is
[17:27] <derpadong> Im using this for a computer
[17:27] <derpadong> Not TV shows and whatnot
[17:28] <Unit193> Alright, I can only think of res and DPI right now.
[17:29] <derpadong> KM0201, whats this zoom feature on ubuntu?
[17:29] <derpadong> lol
[17:29] <KM0201> derpadong: it's a setting in nautilus
[17:29] <KM0201> (i think thunar has a similar one)
[17:30] <derpadong> Hm. Link me?
[17:30] <derpadong> lol
[17:31] <KM0201> it's in thunar
[17:33] <KM0201> derpadong: hold on, i'm installing thunar
[17:33] <KM0201>  hmm, nope
[17:33] <derpadong> Ok
[17:33] <KM0201> i know nautilus does though
[21:10] <Mandrew> hi which network manager is it that you guys have in xubuntu?
[21:11] <Sysi> networkmanager used through nm-applet
[21:11] <Sysi> wicd should work too
[21:15] <Mandrew> so its called nm-applet the network manager?
[21:16] <Mandrew> that cant be right or am i misunderstanding you sir?
[21:16] <Unit193> That's correct
[21:16] <charlie-tca> no, it is called network-manager or maybe gnome-network-manager
[21:16] <Mandrew> that is being used in xubuntu?
[21:16] <charlie-tca> yes
[21:17] <Unit193> *The command seems to be nm-applet
[21:17] <Mandrew> so xfce dont have a special one
[21:17] <Mandrew> ok tnx
[21:17] <Mandrew> i got to go my belly is killing me :S
[21:17] <charlie-tca> correct. Xfce uses either network-manager or wicd, depending on the distribution itself
[21:17] <Mandrew> ok
[21:18] <Mandrew> so what do i need to get it to show up in the applet
[21:18] <charlie-tca> If you went and got xfce and tried to install it, you would find you need to install a distribution to get xfce to do anything useful
[21:19] <Mandrew> sorry need to go my belly is really hurting, tnx for the help
[21:24] <charlie-tca> Xubuntu community meeting in #xubuntu-devel in 35 minutes. Everyone is invited to attend. Agenda is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/Meetings

[23:18] <beardygnome> I think charlie is testing a bot response
[23:18] <Mandrew> aaah

[23:19] <charlie-tca> it ain't working yet
[23:22] <charlie-tca> 19
[23:22] <Mandrew> 20
[23:22] <Mandrew> :P
[23:26] <charlie-tca> !guidelines
[23:29] <Mandrew> charlie-tca, are you playing around with the ChanServ ? ;)
[23:29] <charlie-tca> no, I am piecing together a new factoid
[23:30] <Mandrew> is there like a cmd for sub channels?
[23:31] <charlie-tca> We can limit factoids to specific channels
[23:31] <charlie-tca> !behelpful
[23:31] <Mandrew> like /me but something in the line of /sub-channel
[23:31] <Mandrew> ok
[23:32] <charlie-tca> I don't think so
[23:32] <Mandrew> the /me thing is actually the only one i know hehe
[23:32] <charlie-tca> there is /msg ubottu to talk to the bot without the channel being in the middle
[23:33] <Mandrew> ok that sound just even more lonely then sitting and talking to the computer :S
[23:34] <Mandrew> is there a cmd guide or cmd reference guide for irc?
[23:35] <charlie-tca> yes, there is
[23:35] <charlie-tca> !guidelines
[23:35] <Mandrew> ooh cool
[23:35] <charlie-tca> oh, but that isn't really the cmd guide. Let me find that
[23:38] <Mandrew> this one is a good one: Don't ask for operator privileges
[23:40] <charlie-tca> yeah
[23:40] <charlie-tca> most commands will be found in http://www.irchelp.org/, which is a lot of reading
[23:40] <GridCube> indeed
[23:40] <Mandrew> i have a channel that they keep giving me "talk privileges" dont even know what it is, but i really dont think it necessary for other then the OPs to have special privileges
[23:41] <charlie-tca> This is easier, but do not use away, please
[23:41] <charlie-tca> http://www.irchelp.org/irchelp/ircprimer.html#Commands
[23:42] <charlie-tca> talk privileges in some channels is needed just so they can see what you are typing.
[23:42] <charlie-tca> some channels do not allow "anyone" to talk, so they give special permissions.
[23:43] <Mandrew> hehe charlie-tca i did test things in the settings panel ;) remember? didnt know it would spam the channel, just thought it would say something if someone sent me a PM or clicked on me
[23:43] <charlie-tca> yeah, such things happen. Normally, we tell you and you become aware of it
[23:44] <Mandrew> i was in like 15 channels and everyone got pissed off, not so much fun was it ;)
[23:44] <charlie-tca> heh
[23:45] <charlie-tca> I usually take mine down to just one or two channels for that stuff
[23:46] <Mandrew> i would have done that now in retrospect or just have opened a empty channel to try it out, but done is done
[23:46] <charlie-tca> if you take it down to just #xubuntu- channels, it is easier for everyone to see what happened, and we don't jump as much.
[23:46] <charlie-tca> yup
[23:48] <Mandrew> and the funny thing with away msg is that you never see it yourself but you discover it the hardway by being banned and not being able to come back ;)
[23:49] <Mandrew> charlie-tca, do you use nstapaper?
[23:49] <Mandrew> instapaper*
[23:49] <charlie-tca> no,
[23:49] <charlie-tca> don't know what that is
[23:50] <Mandrew> ok i was thinking there might be a app for that or some like it for linux
[23:50] <Mandrew> http://www.instapaper.com/
[23:51] <Mandrew> A simple tool to save web pages for reading later.
[23:51] <charlie-tca> There is one
[23:51] <charlie-tca> let me find it
[23:52] <Mandrew> there is? nice
[23:54] <Mandrew> i found it today and its a really good tool, now i have a bunch of good articles on my ipad
[23:54] <charlie-tca> httrack lets you save the website
[23:54] <charlie-tca> I don't know if it is the same, though
[23:55] <Mandrew> i think not, but i dd a string on google and i think i got some good hit
[23:55] <Mandrew> s
[23:55] <charlie-tca> I usually just click on File -> Save Page As... in firefox
[23:55] <charlie-tca> it saves a page and folder with the same name. Just click the page name and it opens it Firefox
[23:55] <Mandrew> the good thing with instapaper is that as soon a save it to one place i have it on all devices
[23:56] <charlie-tca> Then it is storing them in the cloud?
[23:56] <Mandrew> and if i need to help a friend, i just login to instapaper on the web
[23:56] <Mandrew> yea some like it
[23:57] <Mandrew> but i have it off line too
[23:57] <charlie-tca> I see.
[23:57] <charlie-tca> bbl
[23:57] <Mandrew> so i can read stuff when im abroad too without the need to go online
[23:57] <charlie-tca> got to run for a few minutes
[23:58] <Mandrew> ok you have a nice one
[23:58] <Mandrew> i might not be here later
[23:58] <Mandrew> getting tired
[23:58] <Mandrew> its late here
