| mekazu | whoops, there you go, no window switching | 00:10 |
| rbrt | hm | 00:10 |
| mekazu | thanks, using xfwm4 --daemon worked. Obviously the window manager wasn't loading | 00:14 |
| mekazu | Not sure if that's a bug I can submit. It's replicable, but I suppose somebody would want to see a stacktrace | 00:15 |
| mekazu | and I don't know where to look for the logs | 00:15 |

| * Marzata blue-tooth applet crashed again... | 07:25 | |
| Jonne_ | upgraded to 4.10, i have 2 issues | 07:57 |
| Jonne_ | how do i make compiz start up automatically again | 07:57 |
| Jonne_ | and why are all my panel items aligned to the left? | 07:57 |
| bazhang | 4.10? | 07:58 |
| bazhang | the ppa for xfce4.10? | 07:58 |
| Jonne_ | yes | 07:58 |
| bazhang | contact the ppa maintainer | 07:58 |
| Jonne_ | was hoping someone here would know these things | 07:59 |
| bazhang | since ppa are not supported, contact the maintainer, file bugs | 07:59 |
| sankey | Jonne_: regarding the panels on the left, i think you just need to enable some "auto expand" option/separator (which really should be the default) | 08:04 |
| sankey | it's just a matter of bad defaults | 08:05 |
| Jonne_ | adding the seperator worked | 08:06 |
| Jonne_ | tnx | 08:06 |
| sankey | also, between 4.8 and 4.10, the "window buttons" applet no longer auto-expands | 08:06 |
| sankey | it really isn't supposed to...that's what the separator is for | 08:07 |
| sankey | so with 4.10 you have more control | 08:07 |
| sankey | control over spacing and such | 08:07 |
| Jonne_ | the compiz thing is weird, it's in my automatic startup thing, but it starts without window decorations (or anything, really) | 08:07 |
| Jonne_ | i can get around this easily by just starting compiz myself | 08:07 |
| Jonne_ | just wondering what the 'proper' way is | 08:08 |
| sankey | Jonne_: what exactly did you add to the auto start? | 08:08 |
| sankey | i think you just need to add the compiz tray icon | 08:09 |
| Jonne_ | compiz --replace | 08:10 |
| sankey | Jonne_: if you want to do it that way, i think you need to just start the "fusion-icon" | 08:28 |
| sankey | but that first loads xfwm, then compiz (but you only need compiz) | 08:29 |
| Jonne_ | i don't care how it's done, as long as it works :p | 08:29 |
| sankey | basically it's just slower | 08:29 |
| sankey | you could do it this way too: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Compiz#Xfce_autostart_.28without_.22fusion-icon.22.29 | 08:29 |
| Jonne_ | i'll try fusion-icon | 08:29 |
| sankey | that's how i did it (with fusion-icon) | 08:30 |
| sankey | i never restarted my computer, so it didn't matter much | 08:30 |
| Jonne_ | i apparently already have the xfce4-session.xml set up as mentioned in the wiki, doesn't seem to do anything | 08:46 |
| sankey | did fusion-icon work? | 08:47 |
| Jonne_ | haven't restarted yet | 08:48 |
| Jonne_ | i'll see tomorrow :p | 08:48 |
| sankey | you actually do want the compiz features, right? otherwise, you get some compositing from xfwm natively | 08:49 |
| sankey | like drop shadows | 08:49 |
| Jonne_ | yeah, i use the opacity thing a lot when slicing websites | 08:50 |
| Jonne_ | and wobbly windows :p | 08:50 |
| sankey | oh got, not wobbly windows | 08:50 |
| Jonne_ | and the switcher | 08:50 |
| Jonne_ | *scale plugin | 08:51 |
| Jonne_ | i could live without the wobbly windows, but the opacity and scale thing is essential to me | 08:51 |
| laite | just out of curiosity, why does wine install want to remove my debhelper and some other packages | 09:41 |
| ochosi | laite: maybe bad packaging?- | 09:46 |
| Unit193 | I have debhelper and wine installed, no hacks or workarounds. | 09:48 |
| ochosi | yeah, i can't see where/why the two would conflict (also had them installed side-by-side a few times) | 09:49 |

| Corvin84 | it's a question? | 15:33 |

| rbrt | can you type in terminal? | 15:35 |
| Corvin84 | don't have xubuntu restricted extra | 15:36 |

| rbrt | see if that solves the problem | 15:39 |
| G__81 | i am using 12.04 and i use xubuntu. Any package that i install i get errors with respect to locale can some one help me on how to resolve this | 15:39 |

| Corvin84 | rbrt: i can install xubuntu o ubuntu restricted addons... which you recommend? | 15:42 |
| rbrt | Corvin84: you can do "apt-get install xubuntu-restricted-extras" | 15:47 |

| rbrt | G__81: "sudo locale-gen en_US en_US.UTF-8" | 15:53 |
| rbrt | G__81: dpkg-reconfigure locales | 15:53 |
| G__81 | would that solve all these errors ? | 15:53 |

| rbrt | worth a shot I guess | 15:54 |
| rbrt | ok | 15:54 |

| Liquidedge | I'm trying to do a fresh install but it seems that I can't get too far. It looks like a video card problem. | 19:49 |
| knome | did you try if the live cd/session works? | 19:49 |
| Liquidedge | After I hit "Install Xubuntu" the screen just goes crazy. | 19:49 |
| Liquidedge | Will try that now. | 19:50 |
| Unit193 | You could try a few alternate boot options, or use the alternate install CD. | 19:51 |
| Liquidedge | Unit193: Which alternate boot options do you recommend? nomodeset? | 19:54 |
| Liquidedge | knome: Just tried the live session, made it reboot. | 19:54 |
| xwalk_ | knome: Oh, okay. That makes much more sense. | 19:57 |
| knome | xwalk_, documentation is not always crystal-clear, just try to keep you head so, and try common sense, and you might get better results ;) | 19:58 |

| knome | Liquidedge, i'd google your laptop(?) model and linux and see what other people have done :) | 20:02 |
| knome | Liquidedge, or if it's not a laptop, then google for you GPU model and linux and see the same ^ :) | 20:02 |
