maoranmaSo, on the topic of LibreOffice's resizing corruption, is this a known bug that's been reported? Is there any kind of workaround?04:58
Artemis3what video card?05:01
maoranmaNvidia05:04
Artemis3model?05:04
maoranma140M NVS Quadro to be specific05:04
Artemis3oh05:04
Artemis3interesting, where do you see this? writer?05:04
Artemis3do you have compositing enabled or disabled?05:05
maoranmaWriter. I haven't actually checked the other ones05:05
maoranmaDisabled.05:05
Artemis3tried enabling it?05:05
maoranmaYes, same issue.05:05
Artemis3also, you are using the nvidia driver correct?05:05
maoranmaYes05:06
maoranmaAnd same issue in Calc as well05:06
Artemis3what do you do, just resize?05:06
maoranmaYea, resize in any form, except by hitting maximize button at the top, and the window corrupts oddly05:07
Artemis3nvidia settings shows driver version 280.13?05:07
maoranmaIf I maximize, it redraws and looks fine, and if I unmax, it redraws and looks fine again, until I try to resize. I have double clicking the title bar set to "fill", and that corrupts too05:08
maoranmaUh, sec05:08
maoranmaWhat's the way to check that again? >_<05:08
Artemis3system menu05:08
Artemis3NVIDIA X Server Settings05:09
maoranmaOh, right, just check the nvidia app05:09
maoranma295.4005:09
Artemis3ah nvm, you are using precise...05:09
maoranmaOn 12.04, right05:09
Artemis3i wonder what gpu is that05:09
maoranmaQuadro NVS 140M. On Thinkpad t6105:11
Artemis3G86M... hmmm05:11
Artemis3can you run glxgears and check framerate?05:11
maoranmaI don't recall having the issue under Ubuntu 11.10 with Xfce desktop05:11
maoranmaSure05:11
Artemis3there is a bug with 295.40 but its supposedly affecting only g80 or less05:12
Artemis3some people have been able to revert the problem by using an older driver05:12
maoranmaInstalling mesa-utils, sec05:13
maoranma~3700-4000FPS05:14
Artemis3seems fine05:14
maoranmayea, it's strange.05:14
Artemis3i think you could try using 295.3305:18
maoranmaHmm, jocky-gtk shows (version current), which is the active one, and (post-release updates) (version current-update).05:23

ubottuxubuntu740: Пожалуйста наберите /join #ubuntu-ru для получения помощи на русском языке. | Pozhalujsta naberite /join #ubuntu-ru dlya polucheniya pomoshi na russkom yazyke.07:55
xubuntu740thanks07:55
psycho_oreosno problems07:55
xubuntu740Maybe you and I can help. Need a driver for the WiFi xubuntu 11.10 at asus eeepc 1015bx08:01
psycho_oreosI can probably help but I don't speak Russian08:03
psycho_oreospastebin (not paste) your lspci -nnk output08:03
xubuntu740<psycho_oreos>  You can not help in Russian) need a valid driver who will normally transfer the card into "monitor mode"08:27
psycho_oreosxubuntu740, normally its: iwconfig <interface> mode monitor ... but it all depends, such as: 1) Are you using ndiswrapper driver? 2) Are you using some proprietary wireless driver? 3) Do you have any other network managing programs such as network-manager/wicd running in the background which may interfere the process?08:34
xubuntu7401) no, 2)no. 3)runing network-manager08:44
psycho_oreosxubuntu740, so that command that I just wrote should work but you should set your network-manager to not manage wireless when you're using monitor mode or else it would interfere08:51
psycho_oreosand if you get permission denied, you simply need to run that command with `sudo' in front of it08:51
xubuntu740thx08:53

WhereIsMySpoonHi - I just booted up into an xfce session and i cant alt-tab, alt-f4 and all the windows are stuck to the top of the screen with the title bar being on the top of the screen like unity :S11:42
WhereIsMySpoonit wasnt like this yesterday11:42
Sysialt F2 "xfwm4 --replace"11:43
WhereIsMySpoonah!!!11:43
WhereIsMySpoon:D:D:D:D:D11:43
Sysisince it's probably caused by corrupted session, rm -rf ~/.cache/sessions in terminal11:43
WhereIsMySpoonrm -rf ~/.cache/sessions11:43
WhereIsMySpoonoops11:43
WhereIsMySpoonxD11:43
WhereIsMySpoonthanks :D11:44
WhereIsMySpoonthat was quick and easy ^^11:44
Os_MaleusWhereIsMySpoon: You can hold the ALT bottom pushed and use Your mouse to pull down the window as well.11:49

Wizardgood afternoon o/12:02
Wizardwhy leafpad replaced mousepad?12:04
knomemousepad was originally forked from leafpad and is not maintained anymore12:05
Wizardsounds reasonable :)12:05
Wizardso now xfce and lxde share editor? good12:05
MeanEYEA friend of mine has a problem where after he logs in, black screen flashes and he's logged out again. Xubuntu 11.10 is in question.12:15
MeanEYEAny known issues about this?12:15
Sysiloggin in to tty Ctrl Alt F6 and rm -rf ~/.ICEauthority may help12:16
MeanEYEThanks. I'll try12:16
Sysior need to delete everything in ~/.config and ~/.cache12:16
MeanEYETried with ~/.config/12:17
MeanEYEDidn't play with ~/.cache12:17
Wizardremoving .config is rather radical move12:19
MeanEYENot the whole ~/.config... just ~/.config/xfce*12:20
Wizardwise :)12:20
MeanEYESane :)12:20
WizardMeanEYE, have you checked .xsession-errors?12:23
MeanEYENo.12:23
Wizardcheck.12:23
Wizardalso, ckeck .dmrc12:23
MeanEYEI don't have direct access to that machine. I know, pointless kind of, but we'll see if ICEauthority removal helped.12:23
Wizardk12:23
MeanEYEIf not, I am going to resort to checking error logs. Because guy on the other of our chay is typing everything to me.12:24
MeanEYE:D Log's are not easily pasted :P through fingers.12:24
Wizardah, right12:24
Wizardhttp://wklej.org has some console tool12:24
MeanEYEICEauthority worked. Thanks folks!12:25

Wizarddo you think I should report this as a bug: http://wstaw.org/w/1452/linki/ ?16:29
Wizardapplication icons are inconsistent16:29
baizonno they are not =)16:30
baizon"web browser" is a shortcut for launch exo ...16:30
baizonyou can change the icons by urself :)16:30
Wizardyes, I can, of course16:31
Wizardand for me it is not a big deal, it is just funny16:31
Wizardand in my opinion such details *do* matter16:31
Guest74459howdy just made the jump from kde :-)17:02
WizardGuest74459, hi17:03
Wizardfrom kde to what? to xfce?17:03
Guest74459yes17:03
Guest74459will take some getting use to i think17:04
Guest74459but i like it17:04
WizardGuest74459, I like it too17:05
Guest74459a lot faster for sure17:07
Wizardand less ram hungry17:08
WizardI also find gtk themes more pleasing17:08
Guest74459miss a few kde apps at the moment so will spend some time looking for replacements17:08
Guest74459yes, i use gnucash a lot & in kde it is not as good17:09
craigbass1976I'm trying to hear what's plugged into my mic jack (on a laptop)  I feel like there's something stupid I'm missing.  Is there some trick?17:10
Guest74459i was spoilt with k3b it's a good app but have learned how to burn video dvds from terminal using growisofs17:10
Wizard:D17:12
WizardGuest74459, brasero is ok17:12
Guest74459craigbass, use mixer17:13
Wizard:D17:13
WizardGuest74459, you can also use xfburn!17:14
Guest74459xfburn will not burn video dvds i don't think?17:14
WizardI'm not sure17:14
holsteincraigbass1976: try installing pavucontrol17:15
Guest74459i'm sure it won't burn discs playable in a dvd player17:15
holsteinGuest74459: i have used brasero to burn DVD's that i have played in a DVD player17:16
craigbass1976Hitting M on the proper channel in alsamixer does it.  I knew it was something stupid.  I did the same thing a couple months ago with this laptop and Fedora...17:16
Guest74459$ growisofs -dvd-video -udf -Z /dev/dvd ~/MOVIE_NAME works just fine :-)17:16
Guest74459thanks holstein, i have used brasero before, a few years ago when i used gnome17:17
Guest74459yes it does do dvd discs17:17
Guest74459i was referring to xfburn, sorry17:17
knomeall this reminds me, should master a dvd...17:17
knomeor actually, a few17:18
Guest74459:) sorry if i've reminded you have work to do17:18
knomenah, it's okay. it's nothing with a deadline17:18
Guest74459i was wondering, how reliable is the upgrade between xubuntu versions when there's a new release? I already read how to do it, just wondered how reliable it was?17:20
knomeGuest74459, usually, it works fine, but please take backups17:21
Guest74459i've used linux for a while, just not ubuntu17:21
martinphone4 days to go, right?17:21
martinphoneofficial release17:21
Guest74459yes, backups always !17:22
Guest74459thanks17:22
Guest744594 days? really?17:22
Guest74459not long to find out then17:22
knomemartinphone, yes.17:23
Guest74459i will give it a few days to see if there are any issues before upgrading os, i learned that the hard way17:24
martinphonea... ok17:24
WizardI found having /home on separate partition17:24
knomeGuest74459, if you're not in a rush, wait for 12.04.1 :)17:24
Wizard:D17:24
Guest74459debian lenny to squeeze did not go well for me17:24
Guest74459:) i tend to give it a few days that's all17:25
martinphonethe limits for ram GB depend on software alone or are there hardware limitations too?17:25
Guest74459i just moved from a rolling release, i am not scared when things go wrong, i just have less time to fix them now, hence xubuntu17:26
Guest74459no hardware limitations here17:27

craigbass1976holstein, pavucontrol is already installed, and it doesn't affect sound at all.  Now that I've gone in and moved faders in alsamixer, the GUI mixers don't work.  Mhe?17:29

snaky90HI18:38
Wizardhi snaky9018:39
snaky90Hi Wizard18:40
snaky90I have a question about xubuntu (xfce)18:44
snaky90How I can do that all applications are minimized in the tray?18:45
knomesnaky90, you can add the "show desktop" applet in the panel18:45
snaky90Thanks, but I do not mean that18:46
snaky90I mean, are minimized with a small icon in the notification area18:46
knomei don't think that's possible18:47
snaky90For example, pidgin18:47
snaky90ok knome18:47
snaky90thanks18:48
knomenp18:48
snaky90I find an app "alltray"18:51
snaky90now18:51
snaky90It seems that what is to minimize apps in the notification area18:51
snaky90I'll try it18:51
knomegood luck18:52
mongybeen playin around with cairo dock, and I'm impressed with the ability to completely ditch the panel once and for all.  thing is, how do I remove the 1 and only panel I have?  apart from making transparent which is not a solution in my book18:57
knomemongy, don't run xfce4-panel ;)18:59
xubuntu867hello19:00
knomehullo19:00
xubuntu867my first time using xubuntu.... can I set "focus follows mouse" ?19:01
xubuntu867googling implies that it is available - but there's no option in my Window Manager Tweaks19:01
xubuntu867i'm using 12.04 beta 219:02
mongyknome: where do I set it not to run?19:02
knomexubuntu867, see the "Window Manager" -section in settings manager, tab "Focus"19:03
knomemongy, see the "Session and Startup" -section, tab "Session"19:03
knomemongy, you should be able to change "Restart style" to "Never"19:03
knomemongy, and then probably quit program and save session...19:04
xubuntu867knome: thanks! I was looking at the wrong config app (Tweaks, instead of "Window Manager" - doh!)19:04
knomenp19:04
mongyknome: ah.  a section I never really looked at before. nice19:07
Wizardhmm.. seems xfce settings need some redesign19:13
WizardI'll wait for 4.10 release19:13
GridCubeknome, youre in fire today :D19:15
Wizard:]19:15
xubuntu867does anyone know how to disable the user list in gdm? i used to be able to do this:19:15
knomeGridCube, always ;)19:15
xubuntu867udo gconftool-2 --direct --config-source xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults --type bool --set /apps/gdm/simple-greeter/disable_user_list true19:16
xubuntu867but it doesn't seem to work any more19:16
GridCubexubuntu867, thats because we dont use gdm anymore19:16
GridCubewe use lightdm19:16
xubuntu867aha!19:16
GridCubeif you dont want to see the user list you need to edit a file19:16
GridCubelet me find it19:16
xubuntu867is this it? http://www.puppychau.com/archives/13019:17

xubuntu867GridCube: thanks! (actually, I don't want to autologin - just to disable the user list and require the username to be typed - but you've put me on the right path!)19:19
GridCubeoh okay :)19:20
bepebehey, I am really struggling to get any sound output from my speakers. Can anybody help me?19:31
GridCubebepebe, try configuring your output with pavucontrol19:33
bepebeThanks GridCube, I have been using PulseAudio Mixer with no such joy, will give that a try instead though.19:34
bepebeGridCube, turns out my sound output needed to be set as fallback? Not sure, but it is working now, thanks!19:35

xubuntu565Hello Xubuntu IRC :D19:51
knomehullo19:52
xubuntu565I have login problems with the login session in my Xubuntu19:53
xubuntu565could you guys please help out a newbie?19:53
xrandr_laptopxubuntu565: what seems to be the issue?19:53
xubuntu565whenever I try to login, the login sesion would black screen for a while19:53
xubuntu565could barely read what error it was (seems like some kind of error)19:54
xubuntu565then return to the login screen19:54
xubuntu565Guest account is fine though19:54
xubuntu565just my own account19:54
xrandr_laptopxubuntu565: have you checked /var/log/messages ?19:54
xubuntu565which is passworded too19:54
martinphonewhere do I find proxy controls in xubuntu?19:54
martinphonethey are not in network19:54
xubuntu565hmm......let me try if I remember the commands in terminal19:55
xrandr_laptopxubuntu565: tail -f /var/log/messages19:55
xrandr_laptopxubuntu565: you might also try backing up your files, deleting the user account, then readding it19:56
xubuntu565no such file or directory19:58
xubuntu565if I were to back up my files, is there a way to access it easily, as it is passworded?20:00
xrandr_laptopxubuntu565: i would sudo su -   in terminal, back up the files (Unless they're encrypted), then delete the user account and re-add. Put the backed up files into the new user's home dir and chown <newuser> <backup files>20:02
xubuntu565and if the files to be backed-up are encrypted?20:04
xrandr_laptopxubuntu565: not sure what to do there20:05
mongydepends how you encrypted them20:06
mongyyou should know if they are encrypted, you made the account.20:06
xubuntu565mongy: it is encrypted, and I think I might have made a stupid mistake of forgetting to put the recovery code somewhere else20:13
mongyxubuntu565: if it's encrypted with ecryptfs then you can recover it using root/sudo20:19
mongyman ecryptfs-recover-private20:19
xubuntu565I'll give that one a try now20:20
mongyxubuntu565: it mounts it to /tmp I think20:20
xubuntu565thanks for the help, although I still haven't figured out how to move out my data20:57
