| deithrian | Still can't make NumLock to turn on after log-in | 00:04 |
| deithrian | it doesn't work even with crontab | 00:05 |
| deithrian | where can i add this command in 11.10 so it will work in Xubuntu 11.10 ? /usr/bin/numlockx on | 00:06 |
| deithrian | the command works when i do it in terminal but it doesn't when added to a crontab file | 00:06 |
| deithrian | NumLock is on only in the login screen but then it turns off after login | 00:07 |
| lordjj | cpu usage monitor seems to indicate high cpu usage in Xubuntu 11.10. Didn't see such percentages in Ubuntu 10.04 | 00:09 |
| jordan_ | help | 00:56 |

| ubuntu_ | So, I'm on the live CD. My last install of Xubuntu was 10.04. What's new and exciting ... | 02:35 |
| ubuntu_ | Xubuntu 11.10 CD that is | 02:35 |
| ubuntu_ | I had a spin on the Ubuntu 11.10 Live CD ... hmm | 02:37 |
| ubuntu_ | How's the Foundation coming along? | 02:38 |
| ubuntu_ | If I knew how to change my nick to Mikodo with this live cd I would | 02:39 |
| ubuntu_ | Well .... I'll see you ... I'm off to look around in xubuntu 11.10 | 02:41 |
| ubuntu_ | I see Pastebinit is included in the install. I was reading from here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Pastebinit where it gives an example of cat /boot/grub/menu.lst | pastebinit | 03:07 |
| ubuntu_ | Where is the vertical line on a keyboard? | 03:08 |
| ubuntu_ | Oh, I found it || ... Sorry | 03:10 |
| zus | how can i move this bottom pannel to the RIGHT of the screen? currently it only moves to left and bottom? | 03:40 |
| xubuntu937 | есть кто? | 05:15 |
| darenw | are there multiple monitor experts here? | 05:36 |
| well_laid_lawn | the bot knows | 05:38 |
| well_laid_lawn | !xrandr | 05:38 |
| ubottu | XRandR 1.2 is the new method of running dual screens in !X. Information/HowTo here: http://wiki.debian.org/XStrikeForce/HowToRandR12 | 05:38 |
| darenw | I was using Ubuntu just fine on two monitors - there was a setting window to turn off cloning and arrange the monitors left/right. | 05:39 |
| darenw | Now I just added xubuntu (good riddance Unity) and can't find how to turn off cloning and otherwise tweak multiple monitors | 05:40 |
| well_laid_lawn | xfce is a bit lighter than gnome and you have to set some things up manually | 05:40 |
| well_laid_lawn | some ppl prefer that | 05:40 |
| preecher | i do-) | 05:41 |
| darenw | I like Arch with icewm, very light, but decided "just works" and less time on tweaking things was more important | 05:41 |
| darenw | and couldn't get printing and other things to work on arch. Ubuntu does everything fine "out of the box" but gnome/unity sux | 05:42 |
| Epsilonultra | any linux(terminal) pros here | 05:43 |
| Epsilonultra | i'm only semi new to linux bash but could use a tutorial | 05:43 |
| well_laid_lawn | there's plenty on the net | 05:44 |
| well_laid_lawn | but what do you want to know first? | 05:44 |
| darenw | i've used bash or other shells since the 1980s. no one is ever really expert though, just gradually less ignorant over time. | 05:44 |
| well_laid_lawn | here's an easy trick | 05:45 |
| well_laid_lawn | !tab | 05:45 |
| ubottu | You can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 05:45 |
| darenw | Seems like Settings -> Settings Manager -> Display ought to have something for dealing with multiple monitors... | 05:48 |
| well_laid_lawn | I don't do multiple monitors but afaik you find the xrandr command that works for you and add it to autostart apps | 05:50 |
| jarnos | darenw, yes, but you could install arandr to have more power over it. | 05:50 |
| darenw | what's this new-fangled arandr? | 05:50 |
| well_laid_lawn | !info arandr | 05:51 |
| ubottu | arandr (source: arandr): Simple visual front end for XRandR. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.1.4-1 (oneiric), package size 48 kB, installed size 376 kB | 05:51 |
| darenw | is that what regular ubuntu uses for as GUI tool to set up multi-monitors? | 05:52 |
| jarnos | darenw, no | 05:52 |
| darenw | i wonder what it does use? something custom made by canonical? | 05:53 |
| darenw | apt-getting the arandr.... | 05:54 |
| darenw | whoo-hoo! two monitors working fine as one big desktop. wild out of control success! | 05:55 |
| * well_laid_lawn cheers | 05:59 | |
| ktwo | hi, anyone had problems with the WiFi and /or notification on xubuntu? sometimes im getting disconnected and am not able to reconnect to Wifi | 07:30 |
| ktwo | only the removal / reinsertion of the usb stick helps | 07:31 |
| well_laid_lawn | check dmesg in a terminal | 07:41 |
| ktwo | a lot of these: [ 138.050179] wlan2: direct probe to 98:0c:82:3b:6f:6a timed out | 07:45 |
| ktwo | has something changed in wlan stuff compared to 11.04? | 07:46 |
| ktwo | because before i never had these | 07:46 |
| ktwo | in 11.04 i did have to install the realtek driver manually, now it was recognized automatically , maybe that? | 07:47 |
| peter-sdlkfjad | There is no sound for my user account. A dummy account works fine. Does anyone have solutions for this specific problem? | 08:50 |

| zniavre | good afternoon | 10:31 |
| zniavre | i experienced some strange behavior with xfce4-panel and indicator-plugin * | 10:32 |
| zniavre | http://i.imgur.com/szLEx.png icons are reversed | 10:32 |
| zniavre | to tell you the truth im using gnome-fallbacl + xfce4-panel ... | 10:33 |
| zniavre | back* | 10:33 |
| ke- | Cool desktop though | 10:41 |
| knome | mm, nice idea to match the wallbg to panelbg | 10:46 |
| zniavre | thank you but my worris is the order of the indicator-plugin in the panel | 10:48 |
| zniavre | worrie* | 10:48 |
| zniavre | :o) | 10:48 |
| zniavre | do you experience the same behavior ? | 10:48 |
| zniavre | where can i report this "bug" if ever it's one | 10:50 |
| zniavre | ? | 10:50 |
| durammx | I have a little problem with libreoffice on xubuntu. | 10:55 |
| durammx | the tool letter size is very small! How can I edit? | 10:55 |
| lordjj | How can change the icon for a custom launcher on the panel? | 12:30 |
| lordjj | Never mind :P | 12:31 |
| zniavre | good afternoon (again) | 13:10 |
| zniavre | any idea about the indicator-plugin for xfce4-panel that is in reverse display ? | 13:10 |
| zniavre | should i report a bug ? | 13:10 |
| zniavre | (just want to know if it's my config gnome+xfce-panel or real bug ) | 13:11 |
| lordjj_ | zinavre "reverse"? | 13:34 |
| lordjj_ | zniavre "reverse"? | 13:34 |
| zniavre | lordjj_ left side et right and right side at left | 13:35 |
| zniavre | et>at | 13:35 |
| zniavre | http://i.imgur.com/szLEx.png | 13:35 |
| lordjj_ | zniavre I don't understand what's wrong | 13:36 |
| zniavre | the indicator is not on good order | 13:37 |
| zniavre | (im sorry i can't find word in english ... | 13:38 |
| lordjj_ | zniavre try: right click panel > panel preferences > items, use the up and down arrow icons to move stuff | 13:38 |
| lordjj_ | It seems only the power button is misplaced, right? | 13:39 |
| zniavre | lordjj_ not that way let me try again > icons on left side should be in right side but only on the indicator-plugin wich is on right side of the panel | 13:39 |
| zniavre | that right and volume and date-time (if any) | 13:40 |
| lordjj_ | well the volume, messaging, and wifi are in correct order | 13:40 |
| zniavre | it should be from the right > power>volume>envelopp >wifi > dropbox | 13:40 |
| zniavre | envelopp is messaging you are right sorry | 13:41 |
| lordjj_ | for me, the order is from right: power, wifi, envelope, sound | 13:41 |
| zniavre | ho ? are you using xfce 11.10 ? | 13:41 |
| lordjj_ | and the power button is not part of the indicator plugin, yes xfce 11.10 | 13:42 |
| lordjj_ | *xubuntu 11.10, xfce 4 :P | 13:42 |
| zniavre | power is not a part of indicator-plugin ? | 13:42 |
| lordjj_ | the power button is part of another item, not indicator-plugin | 13:42 |
| zniavre | ho ... | 13:42 |
| zniavre | maybe it's due to my strange config | 13:43 |
| zniavre | gnome+xfcepanel | 13:43 |
| lordjj_ | try moving the session menu item the way i told you | 13:43 |
| lordjj_ | "session menu" or something like that (session, shurdown, etc maybe) | 13:44 |
| zniavre | session menu is stuck with all the indicators | 13:45 |
| lordjj_ | not that way on my panel | 13:45 |
| lordjj_ | well I have to go | 13:45 |
| zniavre | :o( | 13:45 |
| zniavre | thank you answering | 13:45 |
| lordjj_ | try the panel preferences > items > arrows and experiment with moving stuff | 13:45 |
| lordjj_ | also try to restart the panel in case its stuck (run and see: xfce4-panel --help ) | 13:46 |
| zniavre | i restarted it few time already (using it since yesterday) | 13:47 |
| zniavre | ho leaving ... | 13:47 |

| sambro | in xubuntu, how do i set which desktop is default when i login? | 15:54 |
| tsaavik | hey all, like many others (i'm sure) I've recently scurried over to xubuntu. Can anyone recommend a 'style' (theme) that works well? I'm using NOX, and it ALMOST works, I just can't tell which tab is active in a gnome-terminal. Thanks! | 16:02 |
| Sysi | greybird is nice | 16:02 |
| tsaavik | Sysi: Awesome, thanks! I can see the active tabs now :D Now I just have to get used to the bright white non-goth look, lol. :D | 16:04 |
| sambro | what directory are the xubuntu desktop wallpapers in? | 16:17 |
| joris | he doest somebody know a way to get a split screen in thunar, similar to F3 in nautilus? | 16:44 |

| knome | charlie-tca, thanks too :P | 17:32 |
| Sysi | I wish I could've got autologin working | 17:32 |
| Sysi | I'll check config.. | 17:32 |
| roxx | bye! | 17:33 |
| Sysi | whee, just little tweaking | 17:39 |
| knome | some lightdm stuff could go on the new website, once we get that published | 17:39 |
| knome | that reminds me, i should fix things | 17:39 |
| knome | meh | 17:39 |
| w30 | When I ctrl-alt-Fn1 and then back to X with ctrl-alt-Fn7 I get a black screen with wite cursor. If I highlight squares with the mouse, the squares redraw my screen. What gives? | 18:29 |

| Andres-kain | any .gdsII editor that anybody can recomend? | 21:17 |
| knome | Andres-kain, i think your best friend might be "gdsii ubuntu" :) that gives at least some resources... | 21:19 |
| Andres-kain | knome, I don't understand. | 21:20 |
| knome | Andres-kain, i can't recommend any editors. you might want to check google | 21:21 |
| Andres-kain | tried that, it refers me to projects that seem dataed. | 21:21 |
| knome | mmh, i searched the ubuntu repositories for "gds" and i didn't get any results | 21:22 |
| Andres-kain | was hoping someone here was using something like that. | 21:22 |
| knome | mmh | 21:22 |
| Andres-kain | electric is one. but no mention on gds that is true. | 21:23 |
| knome | since xubuntu shares repositories with ubuntu, you could ask #ubuntu too, i think... | 21:23 |
| knome | (more people there, so better possibilities to catch someone who uses something like that) | 21:24 |
| Andres-kain | thanks! good idea! | 21:27 |
| Zacarias | What does the "old" (as oposed to "linux" mean in a yaboot prompt? | 21:28 |
| njok | what's a good theme for xubuntu, i like greybird but the color of the context menu is too dark,.. | 21:31 |
| knome | njok, no other theme supports gtk3 as well, but you could try bluebird and albatross too | 21:32 |
| knome | njok, (greybird is based on bluebird) | 21:32 |
| njok | ok, i'm going slowly through all of them :) | 21:33 |
| knome | njok, at least in natty, wildbush made your session go nuts, so better watch out | 21:34 |
| charlie-tca | Greybird is the only gtk2 and gtk3 theme | 21:35 |
| charlie-tca | clearlooks works, but will make any gtk3 app look weird | 21:35 |
| Zacarias | Is it Xubuntu 11.10 using Gnome 3-2-0? Shouldn' it be using Xfce? | 21:43 |
| knome | Zacarias, it is not | 21:44 |
| Zacarias | knome: that's what the System Monitor is saying (Linux 2.6.38-powerpc, GNOME 3.2.0) | 21:45 |
| knome | Zacarias, that's because the system monitor is a gnome application, and the libraries it uses are from gnome 3.2.0 | 21:46 |
| Zacarias | knome, ok! | 21:46 |
| larryni | Hi. I installed Xubuntu 11.10 earlier and can't connect to remote shares through Thunar or Gigolo. Gigolo says that it only supports Unix Device (file) protocol. Any ideas? | 22:00 |
| knome | !info gvfs-backends | 22:01 |
| ubottu | gvfs-backends (source: gvfs): userspace virtual filesystem - backends. In component main, is optional. Version 1.10.0-0ubuntu1 (oneiric), package size 343 kB, installed size 1168 kB | 22:01 |
| Unit193 | I think you may be looking for gvfs.... ^^^ | 22:02 |
| knome | larryni, install that | 22:02 |
| larryni | Cheers. I checked earlier that gvfs was installed, never saw gvfs-backends! Off to try this. | 22:04 |
| larryni | Thanks guys, that did the trick :) | 22:09 |
| Zacarias | After lots of problems with the heaviness of 11.04 and the booting process (yaboot for ppc) with 11.10, I reinstalled 10.04 (maybe upgrade to 10.10). What do I loose? | 23:06 |
| Andres-kain | leafpad? | 23:08 |
| Zacarias | Andres-kain: that's for me? I'll loose leafpad? And is it important? | 23:12 |
| Andres-kain | XD no. not important. i do not think. | 23:13 |
| Andres-kain | you can always install it. | 23:14 |
| Andres-kain | zacarias editor by default was mousepad i think. | 23:14 |
| Zacarias | Yes, I think so | 23:15 |
| Unit193 | Mousepad was default, and an older version of Xfce | 23:15 |

| babble | hey everyone - | 23:51 |
| babble | I've been backing up my system directories following this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem/TAR | 23:51 |
| babble | after I borked something this afternoon, I tried restoring from my latest system backup to end up in a grub prompt instead of the usual grub loader; following the instructions here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 to do a fresh install of grub (i.e. grub-install --boot-directory=/media/xubuntu /dev/sda) still dropped me to a grub prompt instead of booting to a desktop. | 23:53 |
| babble | has Xubuntu done something I need to be aware of wrt to the usual Grub installation? | 23:54 |
