Mike-Linux-NLHello everyone14:49
Mike-Linux-NLi have a question regarding ALSA on Xubuntu14:50
GridCubeask14:50
Mike-Linux-NLi have removed the pulseaudio package, due to dissapearing sound, and sound control. Now i installed the package gnome-alsamixer packager, wich works nice, but i do want to havea proper icon for it in the systray. i have installed the package volumeicon-alsa and it shows an icon, but when i rightclick it, and select mixer, it opens a terminalmixer instead...14:51
GridCubeMike-Linux-NL, add a launcher14:52
Mike-Linux-NLis there an icon for the systray that i can use, that controls the gnome-alsamixer? or is there a good alternative for ubuntu, so i can use plain alsa (or OSS) with a nice volume control icon?14:52
GridCubeno idea14:53
Mike-Linux-NLhmm starter works.. have put it in docky... a systray icon would have been better.. i remember it me doing this on ubuntu 9.0414:56
Mike-Linux-NLi think it has to do with my Asus K50ij laptop. it does not like Pulseaudio14:57
Mike-Linux-NLmaybe it still is not supported very well14:57
GridCubei see, well, i don't know :(14:57
GridCubesorry14:57
Mike-Linux-NLthnx for the starter tip tho. i wonder why i havent figured that out myself lol.... maybe it was too easy :P14:59
GridCube:P14:59
Mike-Linux-NLbtw, xfce hada good review on the last Linux Action SHow ;)14:59
GridCube:D nice15:00
P-ChanI can't se java in action with my openjre 7. Why? I chrome, firefox and chromium I can't see plugins in java15:19
P-Chanhttp://www.ghost-hack.com/p5/svgimport/ I can't see java15:20
GridCubeP-Chan, have you installed the rxubuntu-restricted-extras?15:20
GridCube-r15:20
P-ChanGridCube: Yes but not work. Can you helpme ?15:21
GridCubeP-Chan, will try15:21
P-ChanGridCube: Must I remove OpenJRE?15:22
Mike-Linux-NLhmm why does my soundcard show up as a VIA, instead of HDA Intel?15:22
Mike-Linux-NLin ALSA mixer15:22
P-ChanMike-Linux-NL: maybe bug15:22
holsteinMike-Linux-NL: i dont trust the labels in ALSA.. thats where you would file those bugs too15:23
Mike-Linux-NLwell i do know that when OSS gives another output than ALSA...15:23
astraljavaMike-Linux-NL: Can you pastebin the output of `lspci`? It could be that it gets the controller instead of the chip.15:23
astraljavaThe name, I mean.15:23
Mike-Linux-NLgive me the full command?15:23
holsteinlspci or aplay -l15:23
astraljavaEr... that was the full command.15:24
Mike-Linux-NL00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller15:24
holsteinyeah, thats what i would expect to see... if its working, i wouldnt worry about it Mike-Linux-NL15:25
Mike-Linux-NLif i use: cat /proc/asound/card0/codec* | grep Codec     it gives me another one:15:25
Mike-Linux-NLVIA VT1708S15:25
GridCubeP-Chan, sorry15:25
GridCube:/ i dont know15:25
GridCubeP-Chan, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java15:26
Mike-Linux-NLif i use: cat /proc/asound/cards then it gives me following:15:26
Mike-Linux-NL 0 [Intel          ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel15:26
Mike-Linux-NL                      HDA Intel at 0xfe9f4000 irq 4515:26
Mike-Linux-NLso, they way i read it its using a via codec?15:27
holsteinMike-Linux-NL: if you would, use pastebin as astraljava suggested15:27
Mike-Linux-NLholstein: thnx for the tip. i kept the lines very small.. when a bigger output would come out i would have used the pastebin so i dont flood the chat ;)15:28
uskerinehi, i am trying to heavily customize "xfce-applications.menu" limiting the number of applications, so far I am able to manually select categories and applications for each category, but I can not find "<Menu><Name>Internet</Name>" anywhere. There is nothing like xfce-internet.directory in /usr/share/desktop-directories. Any ideas?15:38
P-ChanWhy my softwar center aren't themed? http://imagebin.org/21396715:39
P-ChanThe xubunu tgheme not work in some applications15:39
GridCubeP-Chan, you are using a gkt2 theme and USC is gtk315:43
GridCubeso, yes, some applications, that are gtk3 wont work with gtk2 themes, for obvious reasons15:43
P-ChanThanks GridCube15:43
GridCubeuskerine, use alacarte15:44

tjingboemyes you're right18:55

tjingboemi go to /media/usb something and right-click18:55

linux_junkiehello19:53
linux_junkieI have a problem with xscreensaver19:53
GridCube!details | linux_junkie19:53
ubottulinux_junkie: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..."19:53
linux_junkiewhenever I play a video using Parole media player...19:53
linux_junkie...in full screen the screensaver kicks in after 10 mins...19:54
GridCubeyes19:54
GridCubeit happens19:54
linux_junkie...even though I have selected the option in player to...19:54
GridCubeyeah, it happens anyway19:55
linux_junkie...disable screensaver19:55
GridCubeyou have to manually disable the screensaver19:55
linux_junkieso theres nothing I can do except manually disable it?19:55
GridCubenot that i know off19:55
GridCubeno19:55
laiteyou could ask with devs of parole if they're willing to look into issue19:56
linux_junkiedo you know of any other screensavers that I can use instead of xscreensaver?19:56
laiteso the option in player would work19:56
GridCubelinux_junkie, i think its more a player than screensaver issue19:57
Unit193Well, there is gnome-screensaver, but xscreensaver was selected for a reason and as he said, player issue.19:57
linux_junkieI was just about to ask if the problem was with the screensaver19:57
Unit193VLC works fine for it, or I keep touching the mouse when I should just be watching.19:57
linux_junkieso there are no other light screensavers around?19:58
linux_junkiehave you had any such issue with other media players?19:59
laitelinux_junkie: At least with SMPlayer screensaver kicks in, and I rather just set screensaver to 180 min than looked for a real solution :/20:01
Sysiwhat do you need screensaver for, aren't CRTs dead with '10s20:02
laiteI used to have my monitor as a clock since I don't have any wall clocks around =)20:03
laitewhen I was doing something else away from computer20:03
Sysiyou could probably get clock on your desktop20:04
laitebut not fullscreen =)20:04
laitethat initiates automatically after a while20:04
SysiI don't really know if not suspending/turning off screen works with media players though20:04
xubuntu543Hey guys ... second day on xubuntu and have some basic trouble with it i guess20:07
GridCube!details | xubuntu54320:08
ubottuxubuntu543: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..."20:08
xubuntu543I have trouble with the window manager. Everytime I restboot the computer xfce opens 1 terminal window 1 thunar window and 1 firefox window that tells me it crashed lately.20:09
xubuntu543any ideas on how to fix this?20:10
GridCubexubuntu543, please test this, open a terminal and write: naut   and then press tab twice20:11
xubuntu543ok, did that20:12
Sysixubuntu543: rm -rf ~/.cache/sessions and uncheck "save session" on next logout or don't leave windows open20:12
xubuntu543it opens them even if i reboot with nothing opened20:12
GridCubexubuntu543, did the naut[tab][tab] completed nautilus?20:13
xubuntu543yes20:14
GridCubexubuntu543, you need to do this: sudo apt-get purge nautilus && sudo apt-get autoremove20:14
GridCubenautilus breaks the memory of sessions and remembers stuff even if you tell it not to20:14
xubuntu543ok - done20:15
GridCubethat should do it20:15
GridCubeuse thunar, not nautilus20:15
xubuntu543thx a lot i'm off for a restart20:16
GridCube:)20:16
Sysiyou still need to remove that one saved session20:16
GridCubeSysi, not if nautilus remembered it20:17
Sysioh right20:17
xubuntu647wow thx a lot - it worked20:17
GridCube:D20:17
xubuntu647can you explain what exactly i just did?20:17
GridCubeyou had a secondary file manager, called nautilus, installed, its used by gnome to manage its desktop so it remembers the sessions for gnome20:18
GridCubebut you are not using gnome so it remembers stuff but you have no way to tell it not to20:18
xubuntu647strange20:19
xubuntu647if was a clean install ... 2 days old20:19
GridCubethats why you allways install software with --no-install-recommends20:19
xubuntu647i'm absolutely new to linux :D20:19
GridCube:)20:19
xubuntu647ill rŕemember that in the future20:19
GridCubeyou should read this then http://xubuntu.org/news/category/faq/20:20

uskerinehi21:38
uskerinehow can i configure session menu (the one on the right side of the panel) and remove SUSPEND, HIBERNATE,  REBOOT  AND SHUTDOWN?21:39
GridCubeuskerine, :) maybe you need to read this https://sites.google.com/site/easylinuxtipsproject/xubuntu21:41
martinphonetumblerd doesnt allow me to unmount a hdd, what do I do? om doing nothing with it21:41
martinphoneI just deleted a folder21:41
martinphoneone or more applications are keeping the volume busy21:42
uskerinei already did that GridCube, but now my question is specifically related to the session applet and the included hibernate, suspend, reboot and shutdown buttons21:46
GridCubeoh21:47
GridCubeok21:47
GridCubeyou just want to have a button to go to change users only?21:47
uskerinei would like to have only lock screen and logout21:48
GridCubemmhm21:48
GridCubei see21:48
uskerineit is going to be a server with 10 users21:49
uskerineso no further need to explain why i need to remove it21:50
uskerine:)21:50
uskerinemaybe something in the kiosk mode could do it?21:51
GridCubeuskerine, http://wiki.xfce.org/tips21:52
Sysiremove it and change for "Action buttons"21:54
uskerineSysi, that's plan B22:01
Sysireal solution would be actually preventing users from shutdown/suspend/reboot of course22:02
GridCubeuskerine, http://forum.xfce.org/viewtopic.php?id=478122:02
GridCubebut thats old22:02
uskerinegridcube22:05
uskerinethanks22:05
uskerinei guess i can do the same modifying xfce4-session.xml22:06
uskerineright?22:06
GridCubeuskerine, see the last posts22:06
GridCubeare from this year :D22:06
GridCubein any case you can ask there :P22:07
uskerinethanks gridcube, i will try it22:08
uskerineGridCube22:24
uskerinethat's for the logout menu22:24
uskerine(http://forum.xfce.org/viewtopic.php?id=4781)22:24
uskerinenot for the "session menu applet"22:24
GridCubeoh22:24
uskerinebut it seems to work on the logout menu22:25
uskerinehowever all options where already disabled except logout in that menu22:25
GridCubethen you can have simply a logout launcher :P insted of the session menu applet22:25
uskerinei liked the session menu applet, because of the name of the user22:26
uskerineand because you can combine logout with lockscreen22:26
uskerine hi, what should be done to ensure that new home directories created by adduser will be set up with permissions that enforeces that nobody else can access their data?23:49
