[00:04] <deithrian> Still can't make NumLock to turn on after log-in
[00:05] <deithrian> it doesn't work even with crontab
[00:06] <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
[00:07] <deithrian> NumLock is on only in the login screen but then it turns off after login
[00:09] <lordjj> cpu usage monitor seems to indicate high cpu usage in Xubuntu 11.10. Didn't see such percentages in Ubuntu 10.04
[00:56] <jordan_> help
[00:57] <jordan_> is there anyone there that can help me
[00:57] <jordan_> clear
[00:57] <jordan_> exit
[02:35] <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
[02:37] <ubuntu_> I had a spin on the Ubuntu 11.10 Live CD ... hmm
[02:38] <ubuntu_> How's the Foundation coming along?
[02:39] <ubuntu_> If I knew how to change my nick to Mikodo with this live cd I would
[02:41] <ubuntu_> Well .... I'll see you ... I'm off to look around in xubuntu 11.10
[03:07] <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
[03:08] <ubuntu_> Where is the vertical line on a keyboard?
[03:10] <ubuntu_> Oh, I found it || ... Sorry
[03:40] <zus> how can i move this bottom pannel to the RIGHT of the screen? currently it only moves to left and bottom?
[05:15] <xubuntu937> есть кто?
[05:36] <darenw> are there multiple monitor experts here?
[05:38] <well_laid_lawn> the bot knows
[05:38] <well_laid_lawn> !xrandr
[05:39] <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.
[05:40] <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
[05:41] <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
[05:42] <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
[05:43] <Epsilonultra> any linux(terminal) pros here
[05:43] <Epsilonultra> i'm only semi new to linux bash but could use a tutorial
[05:44] <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.
[05:45] <well_laid_lawn> here's an easy trick
[05:45] <well_laid_lawn> !tab
[05:48] <darenw> Seems like Settings -> Settings Manager -> Display ought to have something for dealing with multiple monitors...
[05:50] <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?
[05:51] <well_laid_lawn> !info arandr
[05:52] <darenw> is that what regular ubuntu uses for as GUI tool to set up multi-monitors?
[05:52] <jarnos> darenw, no
[05:53] <darenw> i wonder what it does use? something custom made by canonical?
[05:54] <darenw> apt-getting the arandr....
[05:55] <darenw> whoo-hoo!  two monitors working fine as one big desktop. wild out of control success!
[05:59]  * well_laid_lawn cheers
[07:30] <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
[07:31] <ktwo> only the removal / reinsertion of the usb stick helps
[07:41] <well_laid_lawn> check dmesg in a terminal
[07:45] <ktwo> a lot of these: [  138.050179] wlan2: direct probe to 98:0c:82:3b:6f:6a timed out
[07:46] <ktwo> has something changed in wlan stuff compared to 11.04?
[07:46] <ktwo> because before i never had these
[07:47] <ktwo> in 11.04 i did have to install the realtek driver manually, now it was recognized automatically , maybe that?
[08:50] <peter-sdlkfjad> There is no sound for my user account. A dummy account works fine. Does anyone have solutions for this specific problem?
[09:01] <well_laid_lawn> is your user in the audio group?

[10:31] <zniavre> good afternoon
[10:32] <zniavre> i experienced some strange behavior with xfce4-panel and indicator-plugin *
[10:32] <zniavre> http://i.imgur.com/szLEx.png   icons are reversed
[10:33] <zniavre> to tell you the truth im using gnome-fallbacl + xfce4-panel ...
[10:33] <zniavre> back*
[10:41] <ke-> Cool desktop though
[10:46] <knome> mm, nice idea to match the wallbg to panelbg
[10:48] <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 ?
[10:50] <zniavre> where can i report this "bug" if ever it's one
[10:50] <zniavre> ?
[10:55] <durammx> I have a little problem with libreoffice on xubuntu.
[10:55] <durammx> the tool letter size is very small! How can I edit?
[12:30] <lordjj> How can change the icon for a custom launcher on the panel?
[12:31] <lordjj> Never mind :P
[13:10] <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 ?
[13:11] <zniavre> (just want to know if it's my config gnome+xfce-panel or real bug )
[13:34] <lordjj_> zinavre "reverse"?
[13:34] <lordjj_> zniavre "reverse"?
[13:35] <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
[13:36] <lordjj_> zniavre I don't understand what's wrong
[13:37] <zniavre> the indicator is not on good order
[13:38] <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
[13:39] <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
[13:40] <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
[13:41] <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 ?
[13:42] <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 ...
[13:43] <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
[13:44] <lordjj_> "session menu" or something like that (session, shurdown, etc maybe)
[13:45] <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
[13:46] <lordjj_> also try to restart the panel in case its stuck (run and see: xfce4-panel --help )
[13:47] <zniavre> i restarted it few time already (using it since yesterday)
[13:47] <zniavre> ho leaving ...

[15:54] <sambro> in xubuntu, how do i set which desktop is default when i login?
[16:02] <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
[16:04] <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
[16:17] <sambro> what directory are the xubuntu desktop wallpapers in?
[16:44] <joris> he doest somebody know a way to get a split screen in thunar, similar to F3 in nautilus?
[16:45] <TheSheep> joris: you can't
[16:46] <joris> hmmm... ok
[17:15] <reon> oi
[17:29] <roxx> how do I turn off the "Guest Account" that is automatically placed on the longin screen to xubuntu?
[17:30] <charlie-tca> roxx: http://ftbeowulf.wordpress.com/2011/10/19/how-to-disable-the-ubuntu-11-10-guest-session/
[17:32] <roxx> charlie-tca: Thanks!
[17:32] <knome> charlie-tca, thanks too :P
[17:32] <Sysi> I wish I could've got autologin working
[17:32] <Sysi> I'll check config..
[17:33] <roxx> bye!
[17:39] <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
[18:29] <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?
[18:30] <w30> I'm running compiz with --indirect-rendering --replace
[18:31] <w30> It's ok without compiz
[18:31] <w30> GForce 7900 GT/GTO
[18:50] <uofm49426> xfce-radio-plugin is broken i think keep crashing
[21:17] <Andres-kain> any .gdsII editor that anybody can recomend?
[21:19] <knome> Andres-kain, i think your best friend might be "gdsii ubuntu" :) that gives at least some resources...
[21:20] <Andres-kain> knome, I don't understand.
[21:21] <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.
[21:22] <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
[21:23] <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...
[21:24] <knome> (more people there, so better possibilities to catch someone who uses something like that)
[21:27] <Andres-kain> thanks! good idea!
[21:28] <Zacarias> What does the "old" (as oposed to "linux" mean in a yaboot prompt?
[21:31] <njok> what's a good theme for xubuntu, i like greybird but the color of the context menu is too dark,..
[21:32] <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)
[21:33] <njok> ok, i'm going slowly through all of them :)
[21:34] <knome> njok, at least in natty, wildbush made your session go nuts, so better watch out
[21:35] <charlie-tca> Greybird is the only gtk2 and gtk3 theme
[21:35] <charlie-tca> clearlooks works, but will make any gtk3 app look weird
[21:43] <Zacarias> Is it Xubuntu 11.10 using Gnome 3-2-0? Shouldn' it be using Xfce?
[21:44] <knome> Zacarias, it is not
[21:45] <Zacarias> knome: that's what the System Monitor is saying (Linux 2.6.38-powerpc, GNOME 3.2.0)
[21:46] <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!
[22:00] <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?
[22:01] <knome> !info gvfs-backends
[22:02] <Unit193> I think you may be looking for gvfs.... ^^^
[22:02] <knome> larryni, install that
[22:04] <larryni> Cheers. I checked earlier that gvfs was installed, never saw gvfs-backends! Off to try this.
[22:09] <larryni> Thanks guys, that did the trick :)
[23:06] <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?
[23:08] <Andres-kain> leafpad?
[23:12] <Zacarias> Andres-kain: that's for me? I'll loose leafpad? And is it important?
[23:13] <Andres-kain> XD no. not important. i do not think.
[23:14] <Andres-kain> you can always install it.
[23:14] <Andres-kain> zacarias editor by default was mousepad i think.
[23:15] <Zacarias> Yes, I think so
[23:15] <Unit193> Mousepad was default, and an older version of Xfce
[23:27] <Andres-kain> bye!
[23:51] <babble> hey everyone -
[23:51] <babble> I've been backing up my system directories following this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem/TAR
[23:53] <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.
[23:54] <babble> has Xubuntu done something I need to be aware of wrt to the usual Grub installation?
