| hammo | i just upgraded from 11.04 to 12.04, i was running 3 monitors, 2 x screens, one for onboard and one for old radeon card. after reinstall i cant get both s xscreens to show. i have setup exactly the same bar new hdd. I still have old hard drive. what conf files should i be looking at to find difference in setup. I'm running xubuntu. did fresh install from dl ISO | 00:36 |
|---|---|---|
| hammo | ?anyone? | 00:44 |
| hammo | can anyone list where display conf files are in xubuntu? | 00:53 |
| hammo | i found file:///home/hammo/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/displays.xml and it has all 3 monitors listed | 00:53 |
| gompa | hi does someone know the best way to test the new theme refresh ? | 01:20 |
| gompa | how would one: git-clone the repository to easily stay up to date.? | 01:26 |
| Unit193 | cd ~/.themes && git clone link-to-github-location | 01:28 |
| Unit193 | Then, to update cd ~/.themes/Greybird/ && git pull | 01:29 |
| gompa | thanks :) | 01:30 |
| Unit193 | You trying the white branch? | 01:30 |
| Unit193 | So, that would be git clone -b bright-menus https://github.com/shimmerproject/Greybird.git | 01:31 |
| hammo | can anyone list where display conf files are in xubuntu please | 01:31 |
| Unit193 | Not /etc/X11/xorg.conf ? Also, may try arandr for dual monitor setup. | 01:32 |
| hammo | hmmmm, i dont have Xorg.conf :( but i found file:///home/hammo/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/displays.xml that lists monitors just cant get 2nd xscreen to display. 1 xscreen for onbaord 1 xscreen for old radeon card. | 01:35 |
| hammo | used to work before upgrade, just need to know conf files to compare so i can setup as before | 01:35 |
| gompa | unit193 thanks but i dont really see any difference (only in the file manager the location bar icons are different and the menu is white | 01:38 |

| anenzymaticboom | I have a problem with crontab. I can execute a command from the terminal fine, but when I try via crontab it does nothing... I have tried various solution from the interwebz maybe y'all can help | 02:50 |
| Unit193 | Alright, what's the command? | 02:52 |
| Unit193 | And, if you open a sh terminal, does it work there? | 02:52 |
| anenzymaticboom | the command is "background" is a executable shell script | 02:53 |
| anenzymaticboom | and yes when I run it from a terminal it runs fine | 02:53 |
| pleia2 | are you using the full path to the program in the crontab? | 02:53 |
| anenzymaticboom | the shell script is just one line (aside from the header) "xfdesktop --reload" | 02:53 |
| anenzymaticboom | yes | 02:54 |
| anenzymaticboom | full path yes | 02:54 |
| pleia2 | and to the shell executing it? /bin/bash /full/path/to/background | 02:54 |
| anenzymaticboom | */1 * * * * bash -c /home/hans/bin/background | 02:54 |
| anenzymaticboom | log: | 02:55 |
| Unit193 | bash -c, everyone forgets the -c | 02:55 |
| anenzymaticboom | I have bash -c... | 02:55 |
| anenzymaticboom | Jun 19 23:55:01 hans-xubuntu CRON[29940]: (hans) CMD (bash -c /home/hans/bin/background) Jun 19 23:55:01 hans-xubuntu CRON[29939]: (hans) MAIL (mailed 1 byte of output; but got status 0x00ff, #012) | 02:56 |
| pleia2 | huh | 02:56 |
| Unit193 | (You did, she forgot, it's my craziness) You don't happen to have a mail server on that? :P | 02:57 |
| anenzymaticboom | not sure... | 02:57 |
| anenzymaticboom | how can I check that? | 02:57 |
| Unit193 | type mail | 02:57 |
| Unit193 | (Not technically, but oh well) | 02:57 |
| anenzymaticboom | hans@hans-xubuntu:~$ mail No mail for hans | 02:57 |
| anenzymaticboom | nope | 02:57 |
| Unit193 | Not sure if you can redirect output, or error output to a file. | 02:58 |
| anenzymaticboom | I am not getting an error... its just not doing anything | 02:59 |
| Unit193 | And did/do you have to set display? | 03:01 |
| anenzymaticboom | not sure... | 03:01 |
| anenzymaticboom | what might that be? | 03:02 |
| Unit193 | Tells it what display X11 is running on. | 03:02 |
| Unit193 | export DISPLAY=:0 | 03:02 |
| anenzymaticboom | would that be cron issue or a xfdesktop --reload issue? | 03:03 |
| anenzymaticboom | because the xfdesktop command works perfectly fine when I run it from the command line | 03:03 |
| Unit193 | Well, best to add it to the script. | 03:03 |
| anenzymaticboom | crontab or the shell? | 03:04 |
| Unit193 | Well, you can add that to either crontab or /full/path/to/background | 03:05 |
| anenzymaticboom | cool | 03:05 |
| pleia2 | when you're launching from cron you don't have the same environment variables as from a shell, so things like DISPLAY may not be set (not sure if DISPLAY itself is the issue here, but environment variables tend to be it) | 03:05 |
| Unit193 | Just DISPLAY=:0 in crontab -e | 03:05 |
| Unit193 | And it using SH, that's not cool either. | 03:05 |
| pleia2 | sh in ubuntu is dash, not bash | 03:06 |
| anenzymaticboom | so... (1) add DISPLAY=:0 in crontab -e (2) change bash to dash | 03:07 |
| anenzymaticboom | right | 03:07 |
| anenzymaticboom | ? | 03:07 |
| pleia2 | no no, you probably want to be using bash | 03:07 |
| anenzymaticboom | ok | 03:07 |
| anenzymaticboom | DISPLAY=:0 in crontab -e, should that go anywhere particular in the file? above below the command? | 03:08 |
| anenzymaticboom | current crontab -l : | 03:09 |
| anenzymaticboom | SHELL=/bin/sh | 03:09 |
| anenzymaticboom | PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/home/hans/bin | 03:09 |
| anenzymaticboom | DISPLAY=:0 | 03:09 |
| Unit193 | Remember to use pastebin.com | 03:09 |
| anenzymaticboom | */1 * * * * bash -c /home/hans/bin/background | 03:09 |
| Unit193 | Pretty much, see if that works better. | 03:10 |
| anenzymaticboom | IT WORKS!!!!! | 03:10 |
| anenzymaticboom | Thanks GUYS!! | 03:10 |
| Unit193 | Sure, welcome. | 03:10 |
| anenzymaticboom | Can we just hold on for one more min, to make sure it is working? | 03:10 |
| Unit193 | Speaking of such The following packages will be upgraded: cron | 03:10 |
| anenzymaticboom | Oh snap, it works like a charm! | 03:11 |
| anenzymaticboom | so what did DISPLAY=:0 do? | 03:11 |
| anenzymaticboom | if you do not mind explaining... | 03:11 |
| Unit193 | pleia2? | 03:11 |
| pleia2 | basically it tells the shell what monitor/display/place to output the results to | 03:11 |
| anenzymaticboom | so would I need that for other sripts as well? Like when I was trying to trouble shoot myself, I tried to execute a command that essentailly opened a txt document in an editor... it also failed | 03:13 |
| pleia2 | for graphical programs, yeah probably | 03:13 |
| anenzymaticboom | ok | 03:13 |
| anenzymaticboom | well thanks | 03:13 |
| anenzymaticboom | anyway I can tip? | 03:13 |
| pleia2 | hehe | 03:14 |
| anenzymaticboom | Well have a good night/day depending on where you are. | 03:18 |
| anenzymaticboom | I will praise this IRC and spread the good word. | 03:18 |
| Unit193 | You already have it set, so fi you just add more to crontab that need a gui you are set already. | 03:19 |
| anenzymaticboom | thanks... now how do I quit this IRC... solved. Good night | 03:19 |
| xubuntu883 | Hey, is there any way to change an option for the color of selected tabs? | 04:17 |
| Unit193 | In what program? | 04:18 |
| xubuntu883 | just overall, but the program I've noticed it in is bluefish | 04:18 |
| Unit193 | Each program may or may not have a setting for that, if I understand what you want. | 04:19 |
| xubuntu883 | yeah, i wasn't sure if there was a generic setting for active tabs in xubuntu or not | 04:20 |
| untaken | I use spotify in xfce, I would like to stop and pause the music with a keyboard shortcut. Is there anyway I can do this. It shows up in the task bar, where I can pause it from there; but would like to control it via the keyboard. Any ideas? | 09:38 |
| astraljava | untaken: It seems we could use examples from this page: http://kothar.net/index.php/blog/30-spotifydbus | 09:55 |
| astraljava | untaken: Noticed there an update at the end of the page, linking to an app providing the mappings. Will have to check it out. | 09:56 |
| untaken | me takes a look (thanks) | 09:56 |
| untaken | astraljava: sweet, did the job. thanks mate :) | 10:11 |
| Chintu | Hey, What is the System requirment for Xubuntu? :) | 10:16 |
| Chintu | I mean, CPU? | 10:16 |
| Chintu | May i run it on p4 1.7Ghz, 512MB SDRAM, ? :) | 10:17 |
| Chintu | Hope i'll get the reply soon :) | 10:17 |
| knome | should work ok, though don't expect it to be a rocket | 10:19 |
| Chintu | Aww! | 10:20 |
| hobgoblin | I use a p4 here - but I do have more RAM | 10:20 |
| Chintu | hmm, | 10:20 |
| Chintu | Okay! | 10:20 |
| Chintu | So should try out Lubuntu? | 10:20 |
| hobgoblin | up to you - I'd try xubuntu first ;) | 10:21 |
| Chintu | Hmm, | 10:22 |
| Chintu | So, i gonna try both then! | 10:22 |
| Chintu | First X and L | 10:22 |
| Chintu | I've tried, Ubuntu, but, it didn't work at all | 10:22 |
| Chintu | But, Just, Yesterday, i come to know that there are many kinds of Unbuntu, I just, googled.. | 10:23 |
| Chintu | XUbuntu just impressed me! | 10:23 |
| Simooon | what didn't work about ubuntu? the install? | 10:24 |
| Chintu | No! I installed it on Window(Wubi like somethin) | 10:24 |
| Chintu | and Starts after more than 5 mins | 10:24 |
| Chintu | And then, When i do something, it hangs :/ | 10:25 |
| Simooon | ahh, that's probably not the fastest way to use it, it is more a kind of way to check it out | 10:25 |
| Simooon | how old is your computer? | 10:25 |
| Chintu | I don't, I brought it from a Computer shop, when my p3 stopped working! | 10:26 |
| Chintu | It's second hand :/ | 10:26 |
| Simooon | so it's quite old? | 10:26 |
| Chintu | Nope! It doesn't look old at all :/ | 10:26 |
| Chintu | I just, bought a mother board that is old.. | 10:27 |
| Chintu | And others are new! | 10:27 |
| Chintu | There's too RAM one is of 512 MB and another is 128 MB << Is than can be a problem with Ubuntu? | 10:28 |
| Chintu | two* | 10:28 |
| Simooon | well that sounds somewhat old to me ;-) I think xubuntu, lubuntu or some other lightweight system would be great for your computer | 10:29 |
| Chintu | Yeah! | 10:29 |
| Chintu | I'll try Xubuntu first! | 10:29 |
| Chintu | It should work! | 10:29 |
| Chintu | may i take a name of Linux Based operating system, what i used and it was good? | 10:30 |
| Chintu | Okay, I used and an operating system linux based. It was Gnome something.. And it worked good.. | 10:32 |
| Simooon | I did not understand that question, could you rephrase that? | 10:32 |
| Simooon | ahh ok | 10:32 |
| Chintu | It was mint something! | 10:32 |
| Chintu | But, The only problem was, It corrupts my Another HDD everytime I connect :/ | 10:33 |
| Simooon | there are many gnome based operating systems, most distros have more than one desktop environment to choose from. Linux mint is widely used and there is a gnome version | 10:33 |
| Chintu | Hmm, My question is that, If, It worked good, So Xubuntu can? | 10:34 |
| Chintu | it worked good on Linux Mint* | 10:34 |
| Chintu | Sorry for my bad english | 10:35 |
| Simooon | I'm sure you could solve your HDD problem, though I have no idea what it is, perhaps you should ask on a mint channel or generel hardware channel about that, xubuntu should work as well, it is mostly a matter of taste. | 10:36 |
| Simooon | linux mint also have a version using xfce (like xubuntu) | 10:36 |
| Chintu | Okay, But, I am not gonna install Mint again.. I don't want my Data lose once again :D | 10:36 |
| Chintu | lolz, I just used it, because, i've no idea that there's is a XUbuntu that can work on P4 | 10:37 |
| Simooon | p4 as in pentium 4? | 10:38 |
| Chintu | Yeah! | 10:38 |
| Chintu | Intel Pentium 4 | 10:38 |
| Simooon | sure | 10:38 |
| Chintu | 1.7Ghz | 10:38 |
| Chintu | Well, If it works good, then okay, if it doesn't... Then, There's another Unbuntu(Lunbuntu) | 10:39 |
| Chintu | lol | 10:39 |
| Simooon | as it is somewhat old processor I would recommend that you use a lightweight desktop environment like XFCE or LXDE both available as linux mint versions and ubuntu versions | 10:39 |
| Chintu | Well, What should i for better performance? Can you suggest me? | 10:39 |
| Chintu | i use* | 10:40 |
| Chintu | No linux mint anymore :P | 10:40 |
| Chintu | I'll get the Xubuntu | 10:40 |
| Simooon | ok, then go for xubuntu, that would be my recommendation | 10:40 |
| Simooon | since I'm not sure how mature LXDE is | 10:41 |
| Chintu | Okay! | 10:41 |
| Simooon | what is your native language? | 10:41 |
| Chintu | And it won't work.. I'll try Lubuntu | 10:41 |
| Chintu | They both have Wubi.exe as in Unbuntu? | 10:42 |
| Simooon | I don't think any of them use wubi, though I'm not sure | 10:42 |
| thedark | hello, how do I change the refresh rate of a second monitor (in this case, an old TV) on 12.04? | 10:43 |
| Chintu | Simooon: What? Xubuntu doesn't have wubi? | 10:43 |
| hobgoblin | xubuntu does - but I'd not recommend it | 10:44 |
| Simooon | not sure, but I don't think so, I would not recommend installing it that way anyway, does Mint use wubi? | 10:44 |
| Chintu | Nope! Mint doesn't have any Wubi, As i know! | 10:45 |
| Simooon | thedark, I think that is something you should do on your TV if it is even possible. | 10:45 |
| === zz_Htbrdd is now known as Htbrdd | ||
| Simooon | Chintu, I think wubi is used only by ubuntu | 10:45 |
| Chintu | I'll use, Wubi first, I've a little knowledge about Linuxs, And if i am stuck with anything so i could use Window too | 10:46 |
| === Htbrdd is now known as zz_Htbrdd | ||
| Chintu | Simooon, Yeah, That's Why i am asking that, Xubuntu hai Lubuntu has Wubi or not? | 10:46 |
| hobgoblin | Simooon: wubi is there in xubuntu | 10:46 |
| Chintu | Btw, I am clear now :) | 10:46 |
| thedark | Simoon: uh, wouldn't I use Xrandr? | 10:46 |
| hobgoblin | Simooon: but I too never recommend it | 10:47 |
| Simooon | hobgoblin, ok, I stand corrected :-P | 10:47 |
| Simooon | thedark, what connector are you using for the tv? | 10:48 |
| thedark | s-video | 10:48 |
| thedark | xubuntu detects the TV, I am pretty sure I just have to change the refresh rate | 10:48 |
| thedark | it was working perfectly in 10.10 | 10:48 |
| thedark | the bootup screen even showed up on it | 10:49 |
| thedark | but it showed the refresh rate as 30hz | 10:49 |
| Simooon | well if it worked before then I guess it should still work, don't know how though | 10:49 |
| thedark | now xubuntu 12.04 sets it to 60hz and it doesn't display anything, despite being detected | 10:49 |
| thedark | I am pretty sure I just gotta use xrandr to change the refresh rate | 10:50 |
| Simooon | Chintu, did you catch that xubuntu apparently have wubi? | 10:50 |
| thedark | I am trying to figure it out now :( | 10:50 |
| Simooon | thedark, perhaps you should try arandr? | 10:51 |
| Chintu | Simooon: Yeah! I guessed, It should have :p | 10:51 |
| hobgoblin | I wouldn't use it though Chintu | 10:52 |
| thedark | I have | 10:52 |
| thedark | no option for Refresh Rate :( | 10:52 |
| Chintu | But, I would like to install it through Wubi first! | 10:53 |
| Simooon | you know that you can still dual boot without wubi, right? | 10:53 |
| hobgoblin | Chintu: you do as you wish to - I'm just saying that I would not use it - nor would I recommend it's use. | 10:54 |
| Chintu | Simooon: How could i? :o | 10:54 |
| Chintu | hobgoblin: Does it slow the OS? | 10:54 |
| Simooon | Just install it alongside windows | 10:54 |
| Simooon | Chintu, wubi makes linux slower, though windows should not be affected. | 10:55 |
| Chintu | But, Then, I won't be able to Uninstall it..If, i'll plan to install Lunbuntu? | 10:55 |
| hobgoblin | Chintu: yes you can :) | 10:56 |
| hobgoblin | you just install over the top of it | 10:56 |
| Chintu | Hmm, Maybe, That's the problem, Why Ubuntu didn't work good on my PC :/ | 10:56 |
| hobgoblin | ubuntu wouldn't have worked well with 512Mb | 10:56 |
| Simooon | thedark, perhaps you can use this: http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=265224 | 10:57 |
| thedark | checking it out, thanks for trying to help me out | 10:57 |
| Chintu | Hmm, | 10:57 |
| Simooon | thedark, np | 10:57 |
| hobgoblin | Chintu: what version of windows do you have? | 10:59 |
| Chintu | I've told my friend to download Xubuntu for me! | 10:59 |
| Chintu | hobgoblin: Windows XP SP2 | 10:59 |
| Chintu | I just, use it for performance | 10:59 |
| Simooon | Chintu, perhaps you should look at some youtube tutorials on this, they can be quite enlightening | 10:59 |
| Chintu | Oh! Youtube, Can't :( | 11:00 |
| Chintu | It's an slow network here! | 11:00 |
| Simooon | ahh sucks, there are great text/picture guides as well though. | 11:00 |
| hobgoblin | Chintu: you shouldn't have any issues with that - boot the iso and then let it shrink your partition and it will install in new partitions | 11:01 |
| Chintu | Okay! I am gonna install it tonight! | 11:01 |
| Chintu | I'll be here with my mobile, while, i'll be installing XUbuntu! | 11:02 |
| hobgoblin | defrag it a couple of times and have backups | 11:02 |

| foobar55 | hi all | 13:38 |
| foobar55 | someone knows about more about kernel 3.x / xubuntu / pae to use on old ibm thinkpads ? | 13:40 |
| foobar55 | how long couldt i calculate with non-pae-kernels ? | 13:40 |
| holstein | i cant imagine needing PAE on an old machine, but you can look for a live CD with PAE, or make one... i would probably just install and try it | 13:45 |
| foobar55 | holstein in sh ? | 13:51 |
| foobar55 | 12.04 xubuntu is without pae - but how long ? btw. so long the LTS runs ? | 13:53 |
| astraljava | foobar55: Yes, it'll be the same kernel during the whole lifecycle of the release, just with updates of course. | 13:54 |
| foobar55 | ok - but when 12.04 LTS runs out ?? may be in three years - i put my old laptops to garbache ? | 13:56 |
| astraljava | foobar55: I couldn't tell, but maybe some other distros will provide a working kernel, or like holstein suggested, you can roll your own. | 13:57 |
| astraljava | foobar55: Xubuntu precise (12.04) is supported for 3 years, yes. | 13:57 |
| foobar55 | i split my P III mobile in dual core with a knife | 14:00 |
| SandJ | foobar55, when the op sys goes out of support, it does not stop existing. It can still be downloaded and backported updates will still appear. | 14:09 |
| SandJ | And once an op sys is 3 years old, there is unlikely to be any need for it to be supported - everything that might go wrong has gone wrong! | 14:10 |
| foobar55 | oohhh, my thinkpads are ten years old - i hope i can use them the next ten years | 14:16 |

| hobgoblin | up to you - but I always turned the pagefile off before I installed next to windows - the installer won't move it and it might be in the way of making a useful size partition | 15:37 |

| Chintu | Just, Restaring my PC | 15:38 |

| Chintu | Importing from Microsoft window is an good Idea? | 16:15 |
| hobgoblin | Chintu: have you installed it yet? | 16:18 |
| hobgoblin | while you are installing - you have your ram trying to install and run the livecd for you to look at - all at the same time :) | 16:19 |
| Chintu | Nope, Installation is running! | 16:19 |

| xubuntu730 | Hello. I tried to install Xubuntu with a live CD, but the step of copying files never ends... What's the problem? What can I try? | 17:00 |
| SandJ | How long is "never ends"? | 17:00 |
| xubuntu730 | more than 20 min | 17:01 |
| SandJ | And can you see the drive light - does it stop flashing after a certain time? | 17:01 |
| xubuntu730 | yes, it stops flashing. | 17:01 |
| xubuntu730 | It restarts flashing when I click every anywhere with the mouse :p :D | 17:01 |
| xubuntu730 | but then, it doesn't flash anymore | 17:02 |
| xubuntu730 | It happened also with a Lubuntu | 17:02 |
| xubuntu730 | Now, I'm trying to install a Xubuntu-alternate... | 17:03 |
| Chintu | It's Installed and much better speed than, Ubuntu, Thank you to All XUbuntu family :) | 17:04 |
| Chintu | I am gonna give my whole night to understand XUbuntu :) | 17:07 |
| xubuntu730 | Where does the problem comes from when the installing process stop on copying files ? | 17:08 |
| Chintu | Disk drive? | 17:09 |
| xubuntu730 | Chintu : I'm installing from a live CD | 17:10 |
| Chintu | lolz, I don't know, Much about it,,.. I just joined the XUbuntu today :p | 17:10 |
| Chintu | Okay, Guys had a nice with you all... I'll back.. With more questions and suggestions :p | 17:13 |
| Chintu | Take care! | 17:13 |
| xubuntu730 | I succeed installing XUbuntu with the alternate version (the installation of the desktop version was blocking at the end of copying files) | 17:35 |
| xubuntu730 | I still don't understand why I had this problem with the desktop version... maybe because it's an old PC ? | 17:36 |
| SandJ | Could it be a fault with the downloading / burning of the CD? | 17:41 |
| xubuntu730 | bye | 17:44 |

| faryshta | How do I add an evento to the "save screen" key? I think in english is | 19:12 |
| elsuco | Hi.... I am having a weird issue with starting xubuntu 12.04 on a 3.2.0-25-generic kernel. | 20:37 |
| elsuco | After the start it takes about a minute until i can use keyboard shortcuts | 20:37 |
| elsuco | before that the Xserver will take a full cpu and xfce4-settings-helper will take about 25% of the second cpu. | 20:38 |
| elsuco | Does anybody have an idea on what the source of this problem might be? | 20:38 |
| holstein | elsuco: i would try another kernel to confirm that its a kernel issue, otherwise, i might tend to just wait the minute and deal with it, since i dont reboot often | 20:39 |
| elsuco | the issue has been since kernel 3.0.* and for some reason my desktop freezes sometimes(i think it is something with the nvidia-driver, since nothing appears in syslog) and i have to restart a lot in the last few days. | 20:42 |
| elsuco | is there some way to check the integrety of the system or something like that? | 20:42 |
| holstein | might be... i would probably load up a live CD and force the vesa graphics driver... i would try maybe a 10.04 live CD | 20:44 |
| elsuco | how do i force the vesa driver? is it a boot option in grub? | 20:45 |
| holstein | elsuco: safe graphics mode | 20:45 |
| holstein | you can hit shift, and get grub showing, and hit F6 and force safe graphics | 20:46 |
| elsuco | ok thanks, i will try that and see what happens | 20:46 |
| elsuco | thanks for the support | 20:49 |
| David-A | elsuco: I'v had Xubuntu versions that used 100% cpu for a while when running xmodmap. Do you have a (long) ~/.Xmodmap ? | 21:20 |
| David-A | no, he's gone | 21:21 |
| KombuchaKip | Anyone else experiencing a slow applications menu? | 22:40 |
