[06:04] <xubuntu_novice-s> Hi, I have a question, but I couldn't find the right answer: I have ATI video card with VGA & DVI. Also i have two monitors: 1st connected to DVI, 2nd to VGA. What can I do to achieve dual screen working?
[06:12] <Wizard> hi
[06:13] <Wizard> xubuntu_novice-s, ping
[06:13] <Wizard> you have few options, if this is not nvidia you may use xrandr for managing screens
[06:14] <Wizard> open terminal and type xrandr to check if everyting is detected correctly
[06:14] <xubuntu_novice-s> yes, VGA-0 connected DVI-0 connected
[06:14] <Wizard> if it is you will find screen settings in menu → settings → settings manager → screen
[06:16] <Wizard> it is rather poor and does not have many options
[06:16] <Wizard> alternatively, you may install lxrandr from repo
[06:16] <xubuntu_novice-s> not the one i need
[06:16] <Wizard> it is small and should fit your needs
[06:17] <Wizard> no, lxrandr does not have these options too?
[06:17] <Wizard> strange
[06:17] <xubuntu_novice-s> i'll try to install it and try
[06:18] <xubuntu_novice-s> lxrandr can only set resolution, turn on-off and refresh rate
[06:19] <Wizard> and what do you need exactly?
[06:19] <xubuntu_novice-s> the same options as in settings manager
[06:19] <xubuntu_novice-s> i need to have different images on two monitors
[06:19] <xubuntu_novice-s> now i have the same
[06:19] <Wizard> hmm
[06:20] <Wizard> dammit :/
[06:20] <Wizard> this should be reported as a bug in launchpad, I think
[06:20] <Wizard> I'll do this later
[06:22] <Wizard> there are other tools for changing that, wait a second, I'm browsing repo :)
[06:22] <xubuntu_novice-s> ok, i'm waiting
[06:24] <Wizard> gnome-control-center package has gnome-display properties tool
[06:24] <Wizard> it may pull a bit of dependencies, but not much
[06:25] <Wizard> uh, gnome-display-properties is the name of this tool, sorry ;)
[06:26] <xubuntu_novice-s> hmm i searched repo too and found "arandr"
[06:26] <xubuntu_novice-s> when waiting for answer
[06:27] <xubuntu_novice-s> and now i have two different image on my lcd's
[06:27] <Wizard> lol
[06:27] <Wizard> pretty simple and ugly tool, but seems it has everything xrandr protocol can do
[06:28] <Wizard> so, you solved it by yourself
[06:28] <Wizard> do you have launchpad account?
[06:29] <xubuntu_novice-s> with little help from you (i haven't thought about searching in repo)
[06:29] <xubuntu_novice-s> so thanks for helping
[06:30] <xubuntu_novice-s> so have a nice day
[10:25] <xubuntu220> a
[12:05] <jnsl_> anyone know how to make cairo dock workspace switcher work?
[13:35] <jnsl_> how can i set alpha of indicator space on panel ? =)
[13:36] <Sysi> "alpha"?
[13:37] <Sysi> oh, transparency of indicator-applet you mean? I think it's a bit broken, goes only with "foreground" transparency
[13:49] <jnsl_> Ok =)
[15:30] <orngjce223> i
[15:31] <knome> you
[15:46] <jnsl_> is overlapping toolbars possible in xubuntu ?
[15:47] <charlie-tca> like one on top of the other?
[15:48] <charlie-tca> or should I say, it depends on the application
[15:48] <charlie-tca> toolbars are mostly controlled by each application, not by Xubuntu
[15:50] <jnsl_> Most applications in ubuntu, say firefox, have the toolbar integrated with the panel, can i do the same with xubuntu ?
[15:50] <jnsl_> global menus i think its called right ?
[15:51] <Sysi> try gnome2-globalmenu from webupd8 ppa
[15:52] <jnsl_> oki thanks
[15:52] <Sysi> it might have been built without xfce support, then you' need to compile yourself
[15:53] <jnsl_> Sysi i found this post: http://askubuntu.com/questions/11490/global-menu-applet-on-maverick/11591#11591, you reckon its still valid ?
[15:54] <Sysi> can't ope, using phone
[15:55] <Sysi> some version of that plugin is incompatible with xfce, see launchpas page about adding ppa
[16:06] <charlie-tca> anything is possible, with enough effort
[17:25] <Wizard> hi
[17:36] <Wizard> anybody arround?
[17:36] <Wizard> around*
[17:37] <charlie-tca> !anybody
[17:37] <Besogon> huh... The only thing which upset me is unsupported UbuntuOne (not integrated into Thunat)
[17:37] <Besogon> thunar
[17:38] <charlie-tca> Dropbox works
[17:38] <Wizard> dropbox has shitty license
[17:38] <Wizard> !poll
[17:39] <charlie-tca> Normally, I support Ubuntu, but when they refuse to support us before android and iphone and windows, I find that real hard to do.
[17:39] <charlie-tca> !language | Wizard
[17:39] <Wizard> :<
[17:40] <Wizard> ok, what should I do to join translation team?
[17:40] <Wizard> are there any specific language tests or something?
[17:40] <Besogon> Still Xfce is the best alternative to gnome and Unity. LXDE is shit.
[17:40] <charlie-tca> um, not that I know of. But I do not know who to contact, either
[17:41] <charlie-tca> !language | Besogon
[17:41] <Sysi> lxde is light, and all bad that comes with it
[17:41] <Wizard> :S
[17:41] <Sysi> nautilus works with xfce and ubuntuone with it?
[17:41] <charlie-tca> Wizard: maybe an email to David Plantella would get more info. He is in charge of translations at Canonical
[17:42] <charlie-tca> Nautilus has issues in Xubuntu. Since we don't run gnome-desktop, and nautilus really wants to control it, it doesn't always work
[17:42] <Besogon> sorry. I didn't think it wasn't polite because the word is so frequently was listened on TV that became ordinary for me
[17:43] <charlie-tca> Yeah, I know that feeling, too. Thanks for trying anyway
[17:43] <Sysi> many canonical guys don't care about anything non-gnome.. kubuntu guys would like ubuntuone too
[17:43] <Wizard> hmm
[17:44] <charlie-tca> Kubuntu has an ubuntu one interface
[17:44] <charlie-tca> But not because anyone connected to UbuntuOne helped them with it
[17:44] <charlie-tca> They are busy writing the windows and iphone interfaces instead
[17:45] <Wizard> yeah..
[17:45] <Wizard> I use git for such thing
[17:45] <Wizard> maybe it's lame, but works everywhere
[17:45] <pleia2> they've actually opened up ubuntu one dev stuff with apis: https://one.ubuntu.com/developer/
[17:45] <pleia2> so it should be easier moving forward to make non-gnome apps
[17:46] <charlie-tca> I really tried to make UbuntuOne work, and after three different times, went with dropbox. license may not be the best, but it does work.
[17:49] <Wizard> does ubuntu one have cli client?
[17:50] <Unit193> Terminal? Menu > Accessories > Terminal Emulator
[17:50] <Unit193> Wow...
[17:50] <Wizard> ee...
[17:51] <Unit193> Wizard: Yeah, I just read that again. There is a way to get it to work on "servers" (From Terminaal)
[17:52] <Wizard> too much effort
[17:52] <charlie-tca> yes, it does have a cli client.
[17:54] <Wizard> me goes afk
[17:54] <Wizard> see you later
[19:25] <jnsl_> a commandline for disabling compiz in xubuntu ?
[19:31] <charlie-tca> compiz is not installed in Xubuntu
[20:39] <Mandrew> hiya
