[00:17] GridCube, the old listings of grub are all there. what happens if I delete the contents of the grub.cfg and the run sudo update-grub? [00:25] i don't know, if i have to bet, ill say it regenerates, but in any case to test it i would rename it instead of deteling the contents [00:25] so if things go wrong you can simply restore it [00:26] Could try to dpkg -l |grep linux-image === madnick_ is now known as mandnick === mandnick is now known as madnick === Htbrdd is now known as zz_Htbrdd === zz_Htbrdd is now known as Htbrdd === Htbrdd is now known as zz_Htbrdd [03:18] !away > zz_Htbrdd [03:18] zz_Htbrdd, please see my private message === zz_Htbrdd is now known as Htbrdd === Htbrdd is now known as zz_Htbrdd === TikInstallinArch is now known as Tiktalik [07:28] can anyone help me figure out why adding my dual monitor script to application autostart won't launch? it has executable permissions and the script works fine from the xterminal [07:29] http://xubuntugeek.blogspot.com/2011/12/add-application-to-xfcexubuntu-session.html [07:29] kati_hathor: have you tried if script is actually run, e.g. adding 'touch ~/script_is_run' or something similar to it [07:30] no but i can try that [07:30] if it's run, you could try adding 'sleep 10' before applying any commands, so xfce would have loaded necessary configs for it [07:30] where '10' is time in secods to wait before running [07:30] *continuing script [07:32] yeah the script is actually running, i will try the sleep, good idea [07:34] cool i did 'sleep 2' and that fixed it, thanks laite [07:35] np :) [07:35] seems the "fuzzy time" from the datetime widget disappeared from 11.10 to 12.04 [07:35] :) === EyesIsMine is now known as EyesIsOther [11:27] hello [11:28] how to install .deb file manually?

That's application-specific, nothing to do with Xubuntu per se. [12:50] how do you move your panel in xfce? [12:52] hex__: unclick 'lock panel' in panel preferences and you can drag it === zz_Htbrdd is now known as Htbrdd [12:52] thank you [12:52] im new..it also seems like wobbly windows doesnt work heh. [13:06] astraljava, I use evolution and I don't know the programs name for holding password, i gnome I think it's keyring [14:44] what is x86? I was used to x64 (my option if I run xubuntu64bits) and x32, but x86? [14:48] x86 is like 80386, 80486, Pentium, etc and compatible chips which are 32bit instruction set their number sequences end in 86. [14:49] It's like how the 64bit was called AMD64 [15:47] big thanks to the design team for making the network and the system monitors the same height [15:48] in 12.04 [16:12] hello [16:15] I have a login issue with my Xubuntu account.

[16:31] after upgrading to latest xubuntu release, i get X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) whenever i run xlock [16:31] Supanoobie, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_Window_authorization [16:32] http://codepad.org/hvtV7LMM [16:34] I'll give it a try first [16:34] thank you guys :D [16:34] Supanoobie, the file just get regenerated once you relogin [16:35] so essentially it's a method to refresh that file?

My question is, how can I set lightdm to the xubuntu session from ssh? [17:57] anybody knows how to do this? Many thanks [18:01] shall I do sudo /usr/lib/lightdm/lightdm-set-defaults -s xubuntu [18:01] I can't really fail because then they'll be stuck :-\ [18:01] haha [18:02] lduros: last time I was playing with that - it made no difference - lightdm will boot the last session - so better to logout and then login to xubuntu [18:02] hobgoblin: yeh but they don't know how to log in with xubuntu [18:02] haha [18:02] whether you can do that from ssh or not I don't know [18:02] i guess i could tell them where to click [18:02] but usually I just do stuff directly on ssh [18:02] :-) [18:02] it's less of a headache [18:02] haha [18:03] hobgoblin: ok, thanks :-) [18:03] lduros: you can add an interesting perspective to this https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1013129 [18:03] Launchpad bug 1013129 in lightdm (Ubuntu) "Changing user session does not work" [Low,Invalid] [18:03] if you wish of course :) [18:03] ah [18:03] ok thanks [18:13] lduros: it might be there is a way to do it - I fought it for a couple of days - see if someone else pitches in [18:13] hobgoblin: i'm tring through lightdm.conf [18:13] we'll see what happens :-) [18:13] if you win - tell me how :) [18:14] hobgoblin: ok sounds good [18:14] i'll attempt a reboot there now [18:14] :-) [18:15] does xubuntu have the same startup stuff than ubuntu-2d by default? [18:15] startup applications? [18:15] maybe i'll have to set this up manually as well [18:15] I have no idea what ubuntu boots with anymore [18:16] is there a way to tell if it's xfce/xubuntu running or unity just from the shell? [18:16] :-) [18:17] maybe from ps aux or something hmmm [18:18] echo $DESKTOP_SESSION [18:18] maybe i'll try to do a screenshot [18:18] maybe [18:18] ah ok cool thanks [18:18] I just installed gnome over xubuntu and cant boot into either now any help? [18:18] hmm it doesn't show anything [18:19] lduros: perhaps it's cos you are ssh - I don't know I'm afraid [18:19] hobgoblin: no prob :-) [18:19] thanks === Guest31249 is now known as epzil0n [18:56] lduros: `ps -ef | grep xfce4` [18:56] lduros: If you see xinitrc there, with a /bin/sh in front of it, you're running Xfce4 (unsurprisingly). [18:58] astraljava: col thanks [18:59] astraljava: all i see is this: /usr/lib/xfce4/xfconf/xfconfd [18:59] lduros: Then you are running something else. [19:46] How come my channel list.

[20:28] so it will show what's actually going on during the login process [20:28] It's taking ages to login so i'd like to take a look what's going on. [20:29] /etc/default/grub and you need to comment out the quiet splash and update grub, unless you only want it for once. [20:31] Unit193, GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" ? [20:34] Unit193, and how do you mean update grub? [20:34] like Sudo apt-get update grub? [20:34] sudo update-grub [20:35] it's a command [20:35] Thanks. [20:35] Awwwh, I had that one! [20:39] Though it didn't do what i exactly wanted it to do, for some reason it logged in a lot faster... [20:39] I don't see any sence in this >.< === superdave321 is now known as rinzler [21:15] So the slow login thing is some sort of bug [21:15] It's nothing about the applications that starts up [21:15] And the bug seems to occur only on the 64-bit version. [21:16] What's even more strange is that it doesn't occur on every start up, but most times. [21:17] 2 out of 3 logins are slow. With no changes applied.
