| puff | Evening... finally got my disk imaged to a backup drive, going to try the next step in my journey of getting an external monitor to work on my t520 w/optimus running xubuntu 11.10. | 01:06 |
|---|---|---|
| trasp | Has anyone else noticed firefox behaving strange last couple of days/week? | 01:16 |
| trasp | Thinking if it's some update that's the reason | 01:17 |
| puff | Define "strange".... | 01:17 |
| puff | Firefox has been generally sucking for months, fo rme. | 01:17 |
| puff | unstable, crashy, thrashy. | 01:17 |
| puff | No marked differencein the past couple weeks. | 01:17 |
| trasp | Well, it doesn update the page and redirect on some javascript-calls and such things | 01:18 |
| trasp | (such thing = searching on google for example, have to make the change in the url manually or tometimes just update the page) | 01:19 |
| puff | Hm, haven't noticed that. | 01:19 |
| trasp | jquery behaves "strange" in such ways as well, pages that usually updates "live" doesn't update at all | 01:20 |
| puff | Then again, I kind of hate that auto-updating feature anyway, so it's likely my typing reflexes would carry me right past that. | 01:20 |
| puff | (on google searches, that is) | 01:20 |
| trasp | Well, you would notice that you can't press "next" page | 01:20 |
| trasp | Everytime I just get a blank page except from the searchfield and buttons... | 01:21 |
| puff | Haven't seen that. | 01:21 |
| trasp | But since you haven't noticed it and no-one else has said anything the problem isn't local | 01:21 |
| trasp | is probably* | 01:21 |
| trasp | haven't made any changes except updates tho ;/ | 01:22 |
| puff | Do you know offhnd how to purge a ppa? | 01:23 |
| puff | is it just removing it/commenting it out in apt.sources, or is more required? | 01:23 |
| trasp | Uhm.. when I've removed any source I've just commented it out, but I'm not that advanced | 01:24 |
| Zelouille | trasp, maybe try the safe mode (firefox -safe-mode) or another profile. | 01:25 |
| trasp | Zelouille: Will do, thanks | 01:25 |
| trasp | Same problem | 01:26 |
| trasp | Oh well | 01:26 |
| trasp | Anyone that favours any other browser? | 01:27 |
| trasp | Might as well install another one for now | 01:28 |
| trasp | Except from konquer I haven't used any other than firefox for years tho, so I'm not really updated | 01:28 |
| puff | So, I'm on 11.10. I've been avoiding upgrading because upgrading always breaks things (especially on thinkpads) but now I'm deliberating upgrading to 12.04. | 01:29 |
| puff | Rather than installing the nvida binary. | 01:29 |
| Zelouille | puff, sudo ppa-purge ppa:<name> | 01:29 |
| puff | Zelouille: Thanks. | 01:29 |
| puff | Hm, odd... okay, so the pages about the driver say it's there for 12.10/12.04, ut https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/x-updates does not list it. | 01:30 |
| puff | I wonder if there's an nvidia ppa support channel :-). | 01:30 |
| puff | Zelouille: Hm, ppa-purge no found. Did sudo apt-add-repository --remove, instead. | 01:31 |
| Zelouille | puff, you'll need to install it: sudo apt-get install ppa-purge | 01:32 |
| puff | Ah. | 01:32 |
| puff | Does ppa-purge do something different than apt-add-repository --remove? | 01:32 |
| Zelouille | trasp, Midori is really light. Works well with Xubuntu. | 01:35 |
| Zelouille | puff> i think, but i don't really know :p | 01:35 |
| trasp | :) Will try it, thanks again | 01:35 |
| Zelouille | puff, well, "ppa-purge" remove the packages from that repo. While "apt-add-repository --remove" only remove the repo. | 01:40 |
| puff | Zelouille: Ah. | 01:41 |
| puff | Zelouille: Hm, seems to say here that ppa-purge isn't reliable on 11.10.. | 01:41 |

| TheSheep | ms_: and xfdesktop still refuses to start? | 10:22 |
| ms_ | yes. | 10:22 |
| TheSheep | do you have nautilus running? | 10:25 |
| ms_ | yes. | 10:26 |
| TheSheep | ms_: can you kill it and try with xfdesktop again? | 10:27 |
| ms_ | TheSheep, (xfdesktop:11670): GdkPixbuf-CRITICAL **: gdk_pixbuf_composite: assertion `dest_y >= 0 && dest_y + dest_height <= dest->height' failed | 10:29 |

| Daro | Hi, im find information if here i can find help with my xubuntu, it is correct? :) | 11:07 |

| Daro | not for all for most | 11:13 |
| Daro | example gmusicbrowser. | 11:14 |

| TheSheep | in the settings | 11:14 |
| Daro | ok nex is adobe flash player he runing is always even if you do not run during this session | 11:16 |
| Daro | sometimes I feel that it is still using the same session | 11:16 |

| Daro | even if you do not use it? | 11:18 |
| Daro | okay, for examle i can set any auto killer for this process?, or i try set the priority in task manager he writing if i dont have rights, okay i try using him from root and i can`t look my process | 11:23 |
