| Maccer | Any MintMenu users? I installed raring, and MintMenu doesn't want to launch any applications except for the ones under Places and System. | 02:20 |
| holstein | Maccer: raring? you mean 13.04? | 02:22 |
| Maccer | Correct holstein. | 02:23 |
| holstein | Maccer: i thought mintmenu was mint only.. do you have ubuntu or mint? | 02:24 |
| Maccer | Ubuntu. I'm using a mint repository to get mintmenu though. | 02:25 |
| holstein | Maccer: you are using a few things that i wouldnt.. a PPA, and the development release.. that is, i wouldnt use either of those if stability were a goal | 02:25 |
| Maccer | I had to. | 02:25 |
| Maccer | But I'm not looking for debian or corporate stability, so I don't care or mind. | 02:26 |
| holstein | Maccer: nah.. you dont have to.. anyways, unfortunately, theres not much we can do to support the PPA package.. you'll need to ask the ppa maintainer.. and ask about 13.04 in #ubuntu+1 | 02:26 |
| Maccer | Actually it's not even a PPA, it's straight off their repository package. | 02:27 |
| holstein | Maccer: sure, but "they" are who maintain it.. not us, unfortunately | 02:27 |
| Maccer | holstein: XFCE has a good amount of MintMenu users. I ask here because I have a chance of finding some one else. | 02:28 |
| holstein | Maccer: cool.. this is not where to ask though, since its not a xubuntu package.. you'd be better asking in the mint channels on spotchat | 02:29 |

| zobak | Hi. How can I donate Xubuntu? | 13:13 |
| zeroth_ | I read somewhere they can't make money out of xubuntu per cononical policies... | 13:19 |
| zeroth_ | Curious to know myself..I read that on the ubuntu forums by the way | 13:21 |
| knome | 15:19 knome: suleyman, at the moment, we're not taking donations, but you can direct the money to the xfce project, from which we directly benefit | 13:22 |
| knome | zeroth_, ^ | 13:22 |
| zeroth_ | I'm loving this distro though...the only problem i've encountered since installing is not being able to use a my usb headphones..not too bad if you ask me | 13:23 |
| zeroth_ | superfast and runs like a charm on an old dell xps m140 | 13:23 |

| xubuntu201 | A lang pack for mozilla firefox, x applications, filesystem mounting tool. | 13:38 |
| zeroth_ | any know why plugging in usb headphones would cause the mouse not to work? | 13:52 |
| zeroth_ | ok, my headphones are showing up in the /usr/share/alsa/cards/USB-Audio.conf....so I was looking a little more closly and in pulsaudio volume control there is a setting under the configuration tab | 14:10 |
| xfce | cannot change /media permission , any help ? as user just give me "read only" 12.04LTS | 14:10 |
| xfce | even with "gksu thunar" | 14:11 |
| zeroth_ | the usb headphones were set to input so I changed to stereo output and they fired up and the mouse released so I was able to use it. Odd issue but simple in a way | 14:11 |
| zeroth_ | now the audio controls on from of the computer don't control audio....they do when not using headphones.. | 14:15 |

| duelle | Hi there, I am having graphical problems for a few weeks now and I don't really now how to tackle them. Here's an example: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/248/screenshotqww.png/ | 15:30 |
| TheSheep | duelle: that's sub-pixel font rendering | 15:30 |
| duelle | TheSheep: So it is meant to look like that? | 15:31 |
| TheSheep | go to settings, appearance, fonts and in the 'sub-pixel order' select 'none' | 15:31 |
| TheSheep | duelle: it's a trick to make the fonts look more smooth on an LCD screen, but that only works if the order of the subpixels matches | 15:31 |
| TheSheep | duelle: yours apparently doesn't, so either change it to the right order, or disable alltogether | 15:32 |
| duelle | TheSheep: Thanks a lot for that hint :) Worked like a charm^^ Looks much better now | 15:32 |
| TheSheep | glad to be of help | 15:33 |
| duelle | I'll look whether I can test the "right" order or keep it disabled at all. Thank you :) | 15:33 |
| duelle | Seems as if none of those settings match with my LCD screen .. so i'll keep it disabled | 15:35 |

| knome | drc, the latter is a snapshot from a specific day that's guaranteed to work. | 16:27 |
| drc | So, the -daily iso is basically a pre-release 12.04.3-daily ? | 16:30 |
| knome | it is the "development version" of 12.04.3, yes. | 16:30 |
