[01:06] <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.
[01:16] <trasp> Has anyone else noticed firefox behaving strange last couple of days/week?
[01:17] <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.
[01:18] <trasp> Well, it doesn update the page and redirect on some javascript-calls and such things
[01:19] <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.
[01:20] <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
[01:21] <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*
[01:22] <trasp> haven't made any changes except updates tho ;/
[01:23] <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?
[01:24] <trasp> Uhm.. when I've removed any source I've just commented it out, but I'm not that advanced
[01:25] <Zelouille> trasp, maybe try the safe mode (firefox -safe-mode) or another profile.
[01:25] <trasp> Zelouille: Will do, thanks
[01:26] <trasp> Same problem
[01:26] <trasp> Oh well
[01:27] <trasp> Anyone that favours any other browser?
[01:28] <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
[01:29] <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.
[01:30] <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 :-).
[01:31] <puff> Zelouille: Hm, ppa-purge no found.  Did sudo apt-add-repository --remove, instead.
[01:32] <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?
[01:35] <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
[01:40] <Zelouille> puff, well, "ppa-purge" remove the packages from that repo. While "apt-add-repository --remove" only remove the repo.
[01:41] <puff> Zelouille: Ah.
[01:41] <puff> Zelouille: Hm, seems to say here that ppa-purge isn't reliable on 11.10..

[08:57] <ms__> I can't change my background, it's blue and I tried to change it with"xfmw4 --settings" and check in "apparence" but all them are working.
[08:58] <ms__> ooops, but all of them aren't working....
[08:58] <ms__> help, help....
[08:58] <TheSheep> ms__: perhaps xfdesktop is not running
[08:59] <TheSheep> ms__: try starting it
[08:59] <TheSheep> ms__: open a terminal and type 'xfdesktop'
[09:00] <ms__> TheSheep, eeeeeuh, it shows me "another desktop manager is running" I use "xfmw4"
[09:04] <ms__> TheSheep, are you there?
[09:05] <TheSheep> ms__: yes
[09:06] <TheSheep> ms__: try 'xfwm4 --replace'
[10:12] <popolon> re
[10:13] <popolon> Network icon appear and after I removed the unique share on the computer it disappear again :/
[10:21] <ms_> TheSheep, you told me to try"xfwm4 --replace", I've done, nothing. I'm now using "xfwm4"
[10:22] <ms_> TheSheep, I meant xfwm4 is already my window manager
[10:22] <TheSheep> ms_: and xfdesktop still refuses to start?
[10:22] <ms_> yes.
[10:25] <TheSheep> do you have nautilus running?
[10:26] <ms_> yes.
[10:27] <TheSheep> ms_: can you kill it and try with xfdesktop again?
[10:29] <ms_> TheSheep, (xfdesktop:11670): GdkPixbuf-CRITICAL **: gdk_pixbuf_composite: assertion `dest_y >= 0 && dest_y + dest_height <= dest->height' failed
[10:32] <ms_> it shows me that but, but, but, BUT, .............
[10:32] <ms_> THANK YOU.
[10:32] <ms_> :)
[10:35] <TheSheep> the problem is that nautilus also displays the desktop
[10:38] <ms_> ahhhh. ok. my computer is now alright. :)
[11:07] <Daro> Hi, im find information if here i can find help with my xubuntu, it is correct? :)
[11:08] <TheSheep> !hi | Daro
[11:08] <ubottu> Daro: Hi!, Welcome to #xubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines. Enjoy your stay!
[11:11] <Daro> great, i have slow netbook (ASUS 1001PXD) and i look in xubuntu if i close any software (from "X") he dont terminate process i can see him in Task Manager how i can hange this?
[11:12] <TheSheep> Daro: that happens with all programs?
[11:13] <Daro> not for all for most
[11:14] <Daro> example gmusicbrowser.
[11:14] <TheSheep> I think that gmusicbrowser has an option to stay in memory when you press the close button
[11:14] <TheSheep> in the settings
[11:16] <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
[11:17] <TheSheep> I think that it starts with the web browser
[11:18] <Daro> even if you do not use it?
[11:23] <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
[11:25] <Daro> I noticed that in reality is a lot more than me these processes shows
[11:34] <daro> ok, my firefox crash, next example for not exit process is gnome keyring
[11:36] <daro> if all programs will be are really exit this computer working great yes im know "meybe this process will be needed in the future"  but it only works when you have a "good hardware"
[11:46] <daro> ok thanks for help, bye :)
