| jk_ | Anybody know how to turn off tool tips for the "home" and launcher icons on the XFCE desktop in version 4.10? Haven't found anything on a Google search. | 00:17 |
|---|---|---|
| ochosi | jk_: could be that disabling thumbnails also disables the tooltips, but other than that i have no clue | 00:19 |
| jk_ | ochosi, unfortunately I already have them disabled, and the tips still show up. In 4.10 they also include oversized icons and that's really ugly. | 00:23 |

| Marzata | how do you add more Xfce style themes? By default in Xfce aren't they more? | 08:40 |
| Unit193 | xfwm4-themes or shiki-colors-xfwm-theme for xfwm, quite a few xfce themes aren't GTK3 compatible. | 08:42 |
| tabby_cat | Unit193: thank you :) | 08:44 |
| Unit193 | Sure, I take it you wondered too. | 08:45 |
| Marzata | Unit193: thank you! | 08:49 |
| Unit193 | Sure thing. | 08:51 |
| gry | you can also write your own themes Marzata, they're bit similar to CSS (/usr/share/themes/ has a ton of examples) | 08:52 |
| Marzata | gry: will look into that too, thanks! | 08:52 |
| gry | put them into ~/.themes/themename/ and modify, they'll appear in settings-appearance-style under the name you chose, just making sure it is not same as an existing name could work out of the box | 08:53 |
| gry | no problem | 08:53 |
| k_sze | What happens if I apt-get upgrade a box through SSH and lose connection? | 09:48 |

| k_sze | So how do I usually use it? ssh into the box, start screen, ctrl-a, c, start apt-get upgrade, and if I get disconnected, ssh into the box again, screen, ctrl-a, " to find the vt? | 09:53 |
| Sysi | ssh into box, run screen, press enter, then whatever, quit with exit or detach with C-a-d and reattach with screen -Dr | 09:59 |
| k_sze | Sysi: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Screen says that "when a Screen session is *detached*, the processes that were running inside it aren't stopped." But what happens if my SSH connection gets dropped before I have a chance to detach Screen? | 10:01 |

| kore_ | but i have installed the driver thrue the additional drivers program.. | 13:30 |
| baizon | kore_: try using the binary nvdia driver from the homepage | 13:31 |
| koegs | additional driver should be ok, but which nvidia-card do you have? | 13:32 |
| kore_ | but its strange I got it working a coupel of days ago, after i used the laptop with a additional screen it stoped working. | 13:33 |

| GridCube | kore_, just that one? | 13:35 |
| mona_ | hello. How do i disable the panel from starting? | 13:35 |
| kore_ | yes | 13:35 |
| mona_ | i would like to use awn instead | 13:35 |
| GridCube | mona_, just eliminate them | 13:36 |
| mona_ | GridCube, but i cant remove the last one.. | 13:36 |
| GridCube | kill xfce4-panel | 13:36 |
| recon_lap | well, I'll try to see if i can repeat it again, but it's more that a gimp bug if it locks up the computer/desktop | 13:36 |
| GridCube | but it will probably restart itself | 13:36 |
| mona_ | GridCube, right. And I would like to disable its startup | 13:37 |
| GridCube | kore_, launch gksu jockey-gtk | 13:37 |
| baizon | mona_: go session and startup and remove the entry? | 13:37 |
| GridCube | kore_, see what drivers are you using, you can pass a screenshot if you feel like ti | 13:38 |
| baizon | mona_: | 13:38 |
| baizon | Navigate to Settings Manager > Session and Startup > Session, kill the xfce4-panel process and save the session state. | 13:38 |
| mona_ | baizon, yep, nice, thank you :) | 13:39 |
| baizon | np | 13:39 |
| kore_ | GridCube: I am using nvidia 173, thats the only one.. | 13:39 |
| GridCube | its activated? | 13:39 |
| kore_ | GridCube: yes | 13:39 |
| GridCube | ok, weird | 13:39 |
| GridCube | kore_, you know how to move around ttys? | 13:40 |
| kore_ | GridCube: not really.. :/ whats ttys, you mean to go to bash behinde xserver? with ctrl+ fx F4 | 13:41 |
| GridCube | yes, ctrl-alt-f[1-6] | 13:42 |
| kore_ | GridCube: yes i do :) | 13:42 |
| GridCube | ok, you can try this then: | 13:42 |
| GridCube | go to a tty log in and do; sudo service lightdm stop then launch sudo Xorg -configure follow the steps and then do sudo reboot | 13:43 |
| GridCube | you should reboot to a configured by you xorg.conf file | 13:44 |
| kore_ | thanks man! :) | 13:44 |
| GridCube | (you could avoid the reboot part and do sudo service lightdm start, but i've found it easier just to reboot) | 13:44 |
| GridCube | if for some reason you cant log in after that | 13:44 |
| GridCube | you can remove the xorg.conf file from /etc/X11/ by doing mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf xorg.conf.back | 13:45 |
| kore_ | thanks! | 13:46 |
| Kore_ | GridCube: sorry man, didnt work. got an error: number of created screens does not match number of detected devices" | 13:54 |
| GridCube | what? | 13:54 |
| GridCube | what command did you used? | 13:54 |
| Kore_ | GridCube: sudo Xorg -configure | 13:55 |
| recon_lap | ok, locked up again, where would i go with this bug? | 13:55 |
| GridCube | Kore_, did you stoped lightdm before? | 13:55 |
| Kore_ | GridCube: yes | 13:55 |
| GridCube | mmm | 13:56 |
| GridCube | try --configure | 13:56 |
| GridCube | with two - | 13:56 |
| Kore_ | okay.. | 13:56 |
| Kore__ | GridCube: got: fatal server error: unrecognised option: --configure | 13:59 |
| GridCube | mmm | 13:59 |
| GridCube | thats so weird | 13:59 |
| GridCube | so -configure was right | 13:59 |
| Kore__ | yes | 14:00 |
| GridCube | Kore_, the previous error says that you have more than one gui | 14:00 |
| GridCube | if lightdm is stoped then it should not tell you that :/ | 14:00 |
| Kore__ | gui? screen? | 14:00 |
| GridCube | yes | 14:01 |
| GridCube | graphical user interface = gui | 14:01 |
| Kore__ | ok | 14:01 |
| GridCube | Kore__, what happens if you go to F7 | 14:01 |
| GridCube | (ctrl-alt-f7) | 14:01 |
| Kore__ | noting, i get back to this gui.. | 14:02 |
| GridCube | okay so you didnt stoped it! | 14:02 |
| GridCube | you need to kill this gui session in order for Xorg -configure to work | 14:03 |
| GridCube | that what stoping lightdm should do | 14:03 |
| Kore__ | i did, but i am in it again now.. thats how i can talk to you.. | 14:03 |
| GridCube | mmmhm | 14:03 |
| Kore__ | I am going inn and out of x itch time :) | 14:04 |
| GridCube | Kore__, not really, you are just switching | 14:04 |
| GridCube | you probably need to log out here | 14:04 |
| GridCube | now that lightdm is stoped you should NOT be prompted for user/password | 14:05 |
| GridCube | and X's should remain closed | 14:05 |
| GridCube | Kore__, you know how to use irssi? or weechat? | 14:05 |
| GridCube | irssi and weechat are text based irc clients you can install and run from a tty, you launch then write /server irc.ubuntu.com and then /join #xubuntu and you will be back here even if you dont have a gui | 14:06 |
| recon_lap | what command would give a dump of the hardware on my system for a bug report? | 14:12 |
| bazhang | sudo lshw ? | 14:13 |
| GridCube | sudo lshw | 14:14 |
| GridCube | recon_lap, ubuntu-bug already takes care of that | 14:15 |
| kore_ | GridCube: I got it working. I mv xconfig file in to xconfig.bak and i ran nvidia-xorg and now evertthing works again.. tahnks man ;) | 14:15 |
| recon_lap | yep, just found that, bit annoying that it wiped the description I had already written | 14:16 |
| mona_ | hi. I have two issues: my is sometimes dissappearing for a brief moment. This happens especially when the cursor icon is changing to hand or resize or other.. What could be the cause? | 14:28 |
| GridCube | my? what? | 14:29 |
| TheSheep | it just disappeared again XD | 14:31 |
| mona_ | lol sry | 14:32 |
| mona_ | cursor1 | 14:32 |
| mona_ | ! | 14:32 |
| mona_ | cursor | 14:32 |
| GridCube | oh | 14:32 |
| TheSheep | mona_: cursor mouse cursor theme perhaps? | 14:32 |
| Sysi | mona_: virtual machine? | 14:32 |
| mona_ | Sysi, nope, native | 14:32 |
| mona_ | TheSheep, how do you mean? | 14:33 |
| TheSheep | mona_: in the mouse settings, third tab, you can select how you want your mouse to look like | 14:33 |
| mona_ | TheSheep, the theme is default | 14:34 |
| mona_ | the theme is okay. But the cursor sometimes disappears until i move the mouse again | 14:35 |
| TheSheep | I think I had it, but I can't remember what was the cause | 14:35 |
| TheSheep | oh, it was on macosx, ignore me | 14:36 |
| mona_ | other issue: | 14:36 |
| mona_ | chromium-browser is mad and cannot be moved | 14:37 |
| TheSheep | mad? | 14:37 |
| mona_ | when i go to options, and select "use system borders" its okay, when i deselect it back, its okay again | 14:37 |
| mona_ | but on chromium restart | 14:37 |
| mona_ | it cannot be move again | 14:37 |
| mona_ | i cannot move it | 14:37 |
| TheSheep | press alt and drag the window | 14:37 |
| mona_ | TheSheep, yes, but well its not the solution really :) | 14:38 |
| TheSheep | a different window manager theme might help | 14:39 |
| TheSheep | otherwise, it's probably a bug in xfwm4 or in chromium (or both), and you can report it to have it fixed in the new release | 14:40 |
| recon_lap | how to you get a new grub.cfg file created after you update /etc/default/grub? | 14:40 |

| fredom | yea.. | 15:33 |

| fredom | on the cpu frequency governor applet, when i set a governer from the dropdown box then close the box. it goes back to ondemand | 15:57 |

| fredom | alot.................... | 16:01 |
| fredom | i havent had problems till recently | 16:02 |
| mona_ | can i somehow enable this command gksudo "setpci -s '00:02.0' F4.B=99" to be run without the need for sudo? | 16:02 |
| holstein | fredom: sometimes i make a new user and either look at the config there, or try looking in the live CD | 16:02 |
| fredom | mk | 16:02 |
| recon_lap | mona_: you trying to get you brightness control working? | 16:03 |
| fredom | what program operates the cpu frequency scaling? | 16:05 |
| fredom | brb | 16:06 |
| mona_ | recon_lap, yes | 16:08 |
| mona_ | the gksudo "setpci -s '00:02.0' F4.B=99" | 16:08 |
| mona_ | works | 16:08 |
| mona_ | so i attached it to keyboard shortcuts | 16:09 |
| mona_ | but its not very elegant, because everytime i invoke it, it asks for passwd | 16:09 |
| recon_lap | mona_: this might be a help https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Debugging/Backlight , depends on what you problem is? is it the brightness applet not working or just the shortcut keys? | 16:10 |
| mona_ | recon_lap, bothj | 16:12 |
| TheSheep | mona_: xbright doesn't work? | 16:12 |
| recon_lap | mona_: you should work through that guide, depending on you video driver you can get the proper fix | 16:13 |
| TheSheep | (or was it xbrightness?) | 16:13 |
| recon_lap | mona_: fn + right arrow/left arrow are the default keys for changing brightness | 16:14 |
| Marzata | in Action Buttons applet it says Lock, but there is no lock? | 16:30 |
| Mathias | recon_lap: is it? | 16:30 |
| Mathias | isn't it usually fn+left/right ? | 16:30 |
| recon_lap | Mathias: ?? searches keyboard for key with "left" or "right" on it :P | 16:32 |

| Monte_Cristo | hi. how can i uninstall the grub of xubuntu? which command could I use? | 16:51 |
| baizon | Sysi: thanks | 16:58 |
| baizon | Monte_Cristo: you cant uninstall grub, or your system wont boot | 16:58 |
| recon_lap | Monte_Cristo: you need to be a bit clearer about what your trying to do. | 16:59 |
| Monte_Cristo | i installed ubuntu on my notebook, and now in the netbook i have windows 7 and xubuntu in dual boot. windows 7 will not boot up. I want xubuntu uninstall, and reinstall windows 7. I created a live usb with the package of windows 7, but when I start the netbook from usb windows live, I get a screen that says xubuntu Default. And I can not reinstall windows. | 17:03 |
| koegs | then you did not boot from the usb | 17:04 |
| recon_lap | Monte_Cristo: you should check the BIOS to see what the boot order is | 17:05 |
| recon_lap | Monte_Cristo: And personally I've never hear of windows booting from a usb? but I'm out of touch with windows | 17:06 |
| Monte_Cristo | recon_lap of course | 17:06 |
| koegs | win7 can be installed from usb, win8 even can be installed on a usb | 17:07 |
| Monte_Cristo | win7 can be installed from usb, i downloaded the iso from the official web site, and i have the installation key | 17:08 |
| Monte_Cristo | I'm sorry, but in my netbook, xubuntu is very slow, unlike windows 7. so I decided not to give up linux and install ubuntu on the notebook. but I want the netbook windows seven! | 17:08 |
| recon_lap | yep, software companies coping the open source movement and charging people for their innovative updates :) | 17:09 |
| recon_lap | copying* | 17:09 |
| Monte_Cristo | I do not care about this | 17:10 |
| recon_lap | Monte_Cristo: no worries , linux is not for everyone, and seems it's not for you laptop anyway :) | 17:10 |
| koegs | Monte_Cristo: this is not a xubuntu problem, make sure you have the installer right on the usb and check your boot settings | 17:10 |
| koegs | windows will overwrite grub during installation | 17:11 |
| Monte_Cristo | koegs, I know this | 17:12 |
| Monte_Cristo | koegs, when i change the order in bios, and start the machine, a screen 'xubuntu' appears, with the word default and a countdown timer that wakes up to infinity. later, if I remove the usb, 'xubuntu' starts normally. In the notebook, where I installed ubuntu, I tried to create more time live usb win7, I tried to re-download the package. I think it's a problem with grub. I am convinced that, if I remove the grub, the machine would | 17:17 |
| Monte_Cristo | be able to access the live usb. | 17:17 |
| koegs | Monte_Cristo: no it is not, check your netbook and see if you can get a bios boot menu or something | 17:18 |
| koegs | this happens before grub | 17:18 |
| recon_lap | Monte_Cristo: well if you're convinced, format the drive and grub is gone. It's not booting from USB for some reason, because if it was you would not be seeing grub. | 17:19 |
| koegs | i think the netbook is not able to boot from the usb for some reason and that is why it is loading grub from the harddrive | 17:20 |
| Monte_Cristo | but because if I give priority in bios to the usb, and boot the machine from the live win7, it seems a strange screen xubuntu? | 17:20 |
| Monte_Cristo | *why,not because | 17:20 |
| Monte_Cristo | ok | 17:20 |
| recon_lap | Monte_Cristo: are you sure you dont have grub on the USB instead of windows? | 17:21 |
| koegs | Monte_Cristo: see if you can get some bios boot menu where you can clearly select the usb stick to boot | 17:21 |
| koegs | if this fails, your configuration on the stick is wrong :) | 17:21 |
| Monte_Cristo | recon_lap, i'm sure, i formatted more time the usb and installed twice the | 17:22 |
| Monte_Cristo | iso win7 | 17:22 |
| recon_lap | Monte_Cristo: and have you booted this laptop from USB before? | 17:22 |
| Monte_Cristo | koegs, i've already done, i selected the usb, In recent weeks I've done that many times | 17:23 |
| Monte_Cristo | recon lap, yes, more times.. | 17:24 |
| koegs | Monte_Cristo: i am sorry to say that but then there is something wrong with your usb or the way you put win7 on the usb, this is not a problem of xubuntu or grub :( | 17:24 |
| Monte_Cristo | ok | 17:25 |
| recon_lap | Monte_Cristo: well, have you checked the partitions, because you may have more than one | 17:25 |
| Monte_Cristo | my four partitions are distributed as follows: 1) windows (does not work anymore, for some reason) 2) Windows recovery (even this does not work anymore) 3) always dedicated to windows, I do not know what (does not work anymore even) 4) partition for xubuntu, having therein two logical partitions: one for xubuntu, the other for swap. These last two only unique to operate | 17:28 |
| recon_lap | Monte_Cristo: I meant on the USB :) | 17:29 |
| Monte_Cristo | i formatted the usb | 17:29 |
| Monte_Cristo | before | 17:29 |
| recon_lap | Monte_Cristo: you formatted a partition, if there are more than one partition which did you format? | 17:30 |
| Monte_Cristo | no | 17:32 |
| Monte_Cristo | I selected the usb from the side menu of ubuntu and I set up the formatting. I did not create partitions in usb, and in fact the machine does not ask me which partition to format. it formats everything. | 17:35 |
| Monte_Cristo | there is a way to uninstall xubuntu, or a command to uninstall the grub? if I act in this way, as soon as I will start the machine by usb win7, would not appear the screen xubuntu, and perhaps, would start win7 | 17:35 |
| GridCube | format it | 17:35 |
| TheSheep | !mbr | 17:35 |
| ubottu | GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since 9.10 (Karmic). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 - See !grub1 for releases before Karmic (9.10) | 17:35 |
| TheSheep | it also tells how to remove grub | 17:36 |
| Monte_Cristo | I hope | 17:36 |
| koegs | Monte_Cristo: how do you put win7 on the usb-stick? | 17:36 |
| koegs | still, this is not a matter of grub... | 17:36 |
| GridCube | koegs, theres an usb-installer from microsoft | 17:36 |
| koegs | GridCube: i know, but i want to know what Monte_Cristo does ;-) | 17:37 |
| Monte_Cristo | koegs, ohh!! with Unebootin of ubuntu. perhaps that is the problem? | 17:38 |
| recon_lap | lol | 17:39 |
| Monte_Cristo | when the machine show me the world Default with the count down, show also the word Unebootin | 17:39 |
| Monte_Cristo | but I can not figure out where i mistake | 17:39 |
| koegs | there are serveral reports that win7.iso + unetbootin does not always work | 17:40 |
| koegs | do you have another windows-pc? | 17:40 |
| recon_lap | Monte_Cristo: burn the ISO to the usb again, but burn it as just a ISO from a DVD writing app | 17:40 |
| koegs | wtf recon_lap? | 17:41 |
| koegs | "burn to usb" with a dvd burner app??? :D | 17:41 |
| Monte_Cristo | koegs, no | 17:41 |
| Monte_Cristo | recon_lap i don't understand what you wrote, sorry | 17:42 |
| recon_lap | Monte_Cristo: ok, looked it up, not going to work :( | 17:45 |
| recon_lap | http://www.addictivetips.com/windows-tips/install-windows-7-from-usb-drive-requires-2-simple-steps/ | 17:46 |
| GridCube | he "CAN" make a booteable is using unetbootin | 17:48 |
| GridCube | i've done it | 17:48 |
| GridCube | it works | 17:48 |
| recon_lap | still, I'd be checking the ISO for errors and using windows tool at this stage | 17:50 |
| bazhang | and joining ##windows | 17:50 |
| lib | anyone know of a way to use expose in xubuntu xfce? | 22:11 |
| ochosi | lib: you mean as in osx's expose effect of showing all open windows? | 22:12 |
| lib | yeah | 22:12 |
| ochosi | there was/is skippy-xd | 22:12 |
| ochosi | it's kinda stable, wouldn't 100% recommend it though | 22:12 |
| ochosi | i guess the best shot you have at this is by using compiz | 22:13 |
| lib | yeah i saw it but the website seems to be down http://thegraveyard.org/skippy.html | 22:13 |
| ochosi | no, there's one at code.google.com | 22:13 |
| lib | i wasnt sure if it was still maintained | 22:13 |
| ochosi | someone applied a few patches | 22:13 |
| ochosi | but i don't think it's actually that well-maintained | 22:13 |
| lib | hmm thanks for the info. ill give it a try | 22:14 |
| ochosi | yeah, but don't complain about it ;) | 22:14 |
| ochosi | (there should even be ready-to-install debian/ubuntu packages of skippy-xd there...) | 22:15 |
| lib | thnaks | 22:15 |
| ochosi | np | 22:15 |
| lib | ochosi: i clicked the .deb file and There isn’t a software package called “file:” in your current software sources. | 22:19 |
| ochosi | lib: you can use "sudo dpkg -i $path-to-your-deb-file" if you want | 22:28 |
| ochosi | but dpkg -i doesn't take care of dependencies | 22:28 |
| ochosi | you have to manually install those via synaptic or something like that | 22:28 |
| Unit193 | sudo apt-get install -f for that. | 22:29 |
| lib | thanks again linux jedi master | 22:29 |
| * ochosi wasn't aware of Unit193's nickname | 22:30 | |
| Unit193 | J,,,? | 22:31 |
| GridCube | i dont understand why im not getting the html5 videos on youtube :/ i've applied on youtube.com/html5 but i still see all the videos, even the most new ones as flash | 23:11 |
| drc | iirc, you have to allow youtube cookies for the html5 settings to take/last. | 23:16 |
| drc | I always forget that :( | 23:16 |
| Unit193 | May want to check back there, and at html5test.com | 23:17 |
| GridCube | 363 and 9 bonus points | 23:18 |
| GridCube | is that good? | 23:18 |
| drc | beats me...no, really, I got 346+9 | 23:20 |
| Unit193 | 373+9 | 23:20 |
| Unit193 | GridCube: Look at the video section. | 23:20 |
| Unit193 | youtube.com/html5 has it too. | 23:20 |
| GridCube | yes i have that all, if log in using my brother's google user i get to see the html5 videos | 23:21 |
| GridCube | :/ but not from my user | 23:21 |
| GridCube | can it be tnat NON of all the videos i see are rendered to webm? | 23:21 |
| v1adimir | GridCube: there are /very/ little html5 ones, you sure you're viewing the same one?.. | 23:22 |
| GridCube | but wasnt it that all the new uploads where on webm? | 23:22 |
| v1adimir | i mean the same link as the one that works on your bro's | 23:22 |
| GridCube | oh okay | 23:23 |
| GridCube | yes | 23:23 |
| GridCube | :/ | 23:23 |
| GridCube | thats weird | 23:23 |
| v1adimir | heh | 23:23 |
| v1adimir | GridCube: 0k, how about trying it with another browser; have you got another one installed? | 23:23 |
| Unit193 | http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=kitties&aq=f&webm=1 Try that. | 23:24 |
| GridCube | sure, but i've figured it, its just that none of my subscriptions upload webm | 23:24 |
| strtok | so after upgrading from 12.04 to 12.10 final beta, my mac pro is bricked :) | 23:51 |
