| John1980 | Hello guys, I have a problem with setting up the dual monitors. I googled a lot, and apparently I have some nonstandard problem. My second monitor (connected to onboard vga) has 'green' on its status LED, but is black. When I go to 'Display' configuration and mark 'use this display', my xfce logs out, and then I cannot log in, unless I turn of this monitor in displays.xml | 02:11 |
|---|---|---|
| kgb | John1980: on nvidia? what version of xubu? | 02:19 |
| kgb | ..if one's on your mobo and the other on the video adapter, then there's nothing standard about that btw | 02:23 |
| John1980 | xubuntu 12.10, onboad vga is on intel | 02:23 |
| kgb | so it's on die? how about the other monitor? | 02:24 |
| John1980 | main monitor is connected to gigabyte external card and works fine | 02:24 |
| kgb | gigabyte nvidia or ati? | 02:24 |
| John1980 | gigabyte radeon | 02:25 |
| kgb | i'm asking because there's a *slim* chance that nvidia-settings could do it for you | 02:25 |
| kgb | ah, it's gonna be stress to set that up, i think the kernel itself must load both videos or something like that | 02:25 |
| kgb | if it's even possible, idk. :) | 02:26 |
| John1980 | for example when I installed debian 6.0.6, the secondary monitor was totally dead | 02:26 |
| kgb | radeon=ati, so forget what i said about nvidia =) | 02:26 |
| John1980 | then its status led was purple | 02:27 |
| John1980 | on xubuntu, it's green, and xrandr sees it | 02:27 |
| kgb | i remember playing with it here and maybe xubu does load them both on boot by default, but i really forget how it goes | 02:28 |
| kgb | :s | 02:28 |
| John1980 | ok no problem. I am running out of ideas, that's why I'm here. | 02:31 |
| John1980 | all the problems with dual displays are about something else, no one has problems with this one checkbox | 02:31 |
| ruien | I'm not experienced with dual monitors myself, but my guess is that you'll have better luck running two monitors from a single video card. At least, that seems to be the most-tested configuration. | 02:32 |
| John1980 | Probably this would be best, but for now there is connector incompatibility | 02:33 |
| kgb | heh | 02:33 |
| John1980 | the vga one is only vga, I'd like to use it for terminal | 02:35 |
| John1980 | video card does not have vga :) | 02:35 |
| kgb | besides, i wouldn't mind sticking a 3rd monitor on the mobo either | 02:37 |
| John1980 | :) | 02:40 |

| xubuntu655 | Just intalled Xubun 12.10. Bun sound doesn't work properly: all channels work nice except center frontal. | 08:28 |
| xubuntu655 | *xubuntu | 08:28 |
| xubuntu655 | *but | 08:28 |
| ochosi | what's the problem with it, i mean how does it not "work nicely"? | 08:29 |
| ochosi | also: what kind of hardware do you have | 08:29 |
| xubuntu655 | Soundcard Intel 82801DB. RAM 512 mb. Processor Intel Pentium 4-2800 (533MHz) | 08:33 |
| xubuntu655 | it doesn't work at all | 08:35 |
| ochosi | what kind of setup do you have? 5.1? | 08:35 |
| xubuntu655 | yes | 08:36 |
| ochosi | did the soundcard work with any other versions of ubuntu/xubuntu/linux? | 08:36 |
| ochosi | also: did you check via alsamixer (in terminal) whether the front-channel is unmuted? | 08:38 |
| xubuntu655 | I have intalled lubuntu. Only two frontal speakers worked | 08:38 |
| xubuntu655 | I switched on center but now back right speaker doesn't work | 08:45 |
| ochosi | so in lubuntu only front worked, and in xubuntu everything _but_ front works? | 08:48 |
| xubuntu655 | I think channels are mixed up. Because when I am turning on center front channel rear left channel increases | 08:54 |

| stratoka | hello all, i have a question. Im running Debian testing atm, and i want to switch to xubuntu for personal reasons. The Question is, should i go winth 12.04 LTS or the 12.10? Are there significant differences? | 13:39 |
| knome | 12.04 has longer support, 12.10 has newer software versions | 13:39 |
| Pici | where support means security updates and community support here. | 13:40 |
| knome | see http://xubuntu.org/news/12-10-release/ for the release notes for 12.10 | 13:40 |
| stratoka | i see, performace wise for a desktop computer would you reccomend the LTS? | 13:41 |
| knome | only performance-wise, no, i don't see the benefits | 13:41 |
| stratoka | it is for everyday use, nothing more, maybe a little video editing but thats all. | 13:43 |
| stratoka | only notable change is the Xfce 4.10? | 13:43 |
| knome | if you don't consider complete documentation rewrite a notable change | 13:44 |
| stratoka | ok, thank you for the guidelines | 13:44 |
| stratoka | see you guys! | 13:44 |

| Unit193 | Noskcaj: Shimmer themes are the best, but there were some others that were pretty compatible. The Zukitwo theme was compatible a while ago, may still be. | 21:06 |
