[00:27] <packetfrog> Anyone familiar with xfce/compiz? When I switch work spaces xfce panel/desktop icons all die on me and I cant get anything to run at that point. I either have to ctrl-alt-f1 and startx or reboot
[00:34] <SonikkuAmerica> packetfrog: Why not the standard composting in xfwm4?
[00:35] <packetfrog> cube and wobbly windows   just trying it out
[00:35] <packetfrog> It was working fine though
[00:35] <packetfrog> Today it just started being stupid
[00:35] <SonikkuAmerica> I heard Wobbly Windows got deprecated as of the package version released in Quantal.
[00:36] <packetfrog> ?
[02:20] <Maccer> Any MintMenu users? I installed raring, and MintMenu doesn't want to launch any applications except for the ones under Places and System.
[02:22] <holstein> Maccer: raring? you mean 13.04?
[02:23] <Maccer> Correct holstein.
[02:24] <holstein> Maccer: i thought mintmenu was mint only.. do you have ubuntu or mint?
[02:25] <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.
[02:26] <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
[02:27] <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
[02:28] <Maccer> holstein: XFCE has a good amount of MintMenu users. I ask here because I have a chance of finding some one else.
[02:29] <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
[03:13] <metap0d> Is there an easy way to enable mp3 playback on xubuntu without downloading the entire restricted extras package?
[03:29] <holstein> metap0d: install the fluendo codec

[03:37] <sp00ky> when using Spotify I am frequently running into an issue where I am unable to use the mouse to control or click on anything.  when the screen starts I see a message saying something to the extent of the pointer already being grabbed.  does anyone know how I can resolve this issue without rebooting machine?
[03:47] <daswort> sp00ky~ esc doesnt work? Try xkill
[03:49] <sp00ky> daswort, I don't believe I've tried esc or xkill.  I've been using alt+F2 to open xterm and kill the Spotify pid.

[13:13] <zobak> Hi. How can I donate Xubuntu?
[13:19] <zeroth_> I read somewhere they can't make money out of xubuntu per cononical policies...
[13:21] <zeroth_> Curious to know myself..I read that on the ubuntu forums by the way
[13:22] <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_, ^
[13:23] <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
[13:24] <zeroth_> I take that back...firefox ran like crap...I'm using seamonkey and it's sweet
[13:36] <xubuntu201> Hey hey, can anyone help me with an updating problem ?
[13:36] <xubuntu201> I can't seem to install any of them :P
[13:36] <TheSheep> any of which?
[13:38] <xubuntu201> A lang pack for mozilla firefox,  x applications, filesystem mounting tool.
[13:52] <zeroth_> any know why plugging in usb headphones would cause the mouse not to work?
[14:10] <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
[14:11] <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
[14:15] <zeroth_> now the audio controls on from of the computer don't control audio....they do when not using headphones..
[14:27] <xubuntu297> hi...I can't find a created file in xubuntu
[14:27] <xubuntu297> I searched everywhere, "how to find created file"
[14:28] <eggi67> hello
[14:28] <eggi67> i installed xubuntu on a 7 years old laptop and it's very slow, just like windows xp
[14:29] <eggi67> plus the touchpad's double click doesn't work, only the buttons works
[14:30] <eggi67> i installed the synaptiks package but nothingh changed
[14:30] <eggi67> any idea?
[14:57] <chr1sto14> @eggi67 Did you try to manipulate "Mouse and Touchpad" settings?
[15:30] <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
[15:31] <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
[15:32] <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
[15:33] <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 :)
[15:35] <duelle> Seems as if none of those settings match with my LCD screen .. so i'll keep it disabled
[16:22] <drc> What is the difference between the iso's on 1) http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/precise/daily-live/current/ and 2) http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/12.04.2/release/  ?
[16:27] <knome> drc, the latter is a snapshot from a specific day that's guaranteed to work.
[16:30] <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.
[16:31] <drc> Interesting, I never knew there was this series of iso's...thanks
[16:32] <knome> those aren't meant for production, that's why there's no big fuss about them

[20:48] <xubuntu070> if anyone can help it would be great
[20:52] <xubuntu070> anyone???
[20:53] <knome> !patience | xubuntu070
[20:53] <Cheri703> xubuntu070: give it a bit, also providing as much info as possible would be great. what brand/model of printer?
[20:53] <Cheri703> have you searched for drivers or any forum posts about it?
[20:53] <knome> xubuntu070, especially the part to be able to search elsewhere too
[20:53] <xubuntu070> epson stylus sx235W
[20:54] <xubuntu070> searched...but I don't really understand any of it....I am a COMPLETE newbie to Linux
[20:55] <xubuntu070> I know my IP adress as well
[20:55] <Cheri703> did you go to printers >add printer > find network printer ?
[20:56] <Cheri703> did you get the driver from epson?
[20:56] <Cheri703> sometimes they'll walk you through the wifi setup, my canon one does?
[20:56] <Cheri703> *-?

[20:57] <knome> there's a tutorial that looks pretty complete and it's for the exact same model
[20:57] <xubuntu070> got the driver through xubuntu when I plugged usb cable
[20:57] <knome> and it's been confirmed, so it should work
[20:57] <xubuntu070> I'll check it out...thanks
[20:57] <knome> xubuntu070, just making sure... are you using xubuntu 12.04 or later?
[20:57] <xubuntu070> like I stated... I just can't get the wifi part
