[00:44] Hello! [00:47] hello [00:47] How are you today? [00:48] I am well, and yourself? something I can help with? general chatter goes in xubunt-offtopic [00:48] *xubuntu-offtoptic [00:51] Nothing to help with right now; Just wanting to join the #XUbuntu community! [01:08] Miningdude: welcome, then! [01:09] Thank you ntzrmtthihu777! Installing xUbuntu in a Virtual Machine, on crap internet is FUN! [01:25] lol. setting up a server on crap internet, now *that* is fun [01:25] Have a problem now; In the VM (Virtualbox) I just finished the install and it told me to reboot. Hit the reboot button, and now it is stuck at a "Caught Signal 15, Shutting Down..." [01:25] screen [01:32] no clue, sir. sorry I have no answer for you :( [01:32] Going to post a pic of the screen [01:33] (Taken with iPod Touch 5g. Sorry for size) [01:34] should get scrot + imagebinit (custom bash script) [01:35] http://i.imgur.com/InbJaE6.jpg [01:35] sorry, no clue sir. perhaps another can assist? [01:36] Installed xUbuntu 13.04 (I believe, let me check the iso name) on a virtual machine. After install, I rebooted and it gave me that screen. [01:36] I've lost sound, any care to assist? perhaps its due to an ongoing install of StarCraft II [01:37] does your sound card show in the sound settings or does it just show dummy output [01:37] Check http://reddit.com/r/xUbuntu ? [01:38] bwat47: it shows the true sound card, it just died :/ [01:39] is it via hdmi?

While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com/ or http://ubuntuforums.org/ or http://askubuntu.com/ [07:54] Hi All. Periodically my computer becomes laggy, the HD activity led is constantly on and in iotop i see one process using most of the io. See its long command in http://paste.ubuntu.com/5653737/. I'm running Xubuntu 13.04. Can this be mitigated this? [07:56] which process [07:56] my propblem is solved with pavucontrol :) [07:57] nice work Manolitico [07:57] The command was in the paste, the rest of iotop is 3903 idle nobody 2.57 M/s 0.00 B/s 0.00 % 82.31 %. [07:57] i have to go [07:57] bye [07:57] which process nicklasbo ? a torrent client? [07:58] No, it is find [07:58] bye [07:58] But I'm not running find [07:58] the find command is in the paste. [07:59] It stopped now, but it runs from time to time with resulting freeze-ups of the UI. [08:02] nicklasbo, I wonder if it might be related to gvfs-backends. I used to encounter major delays opening thunar and traced it to that. I now remove that as a matter of course when installing xfce [08:03] if i disabled my drives from showing on my desktop, whats the fastest way to access a file manager? there isn't one in the top left dropdown menu for me [08:03] fallore, add Places to the panel [08:04] ty :) [08:05] th0r, will look into it :) Are there any way to inspect who spawned the find? [08:05] oh man thats so much better :D [08:05] nicklasbo, I am sure there is, but I don't know it offhand [08:06] ok, thanks :) [08:07] nicklasbo, as I understand it, gvfs-backends indexes the network drives to allow Thunar to access them directly. That find command seems to be searching for networked file systems for some reason. (not a bash guru...so didn't decode the entire thing_ [08:11] OK, do you now if there are any side effects of doing apt-get remove gvfs-backends? [08:11] know* [08:12] nicklasbo, I haven't found anything noticeable. If you check the web you should find some links about it...that is where I got the idea. Was searching for ways to speed up thunar and found that. [08:12] Great, will give it a go then. I can always just install it again. Thanks! [08:14] nicklasbo, http://crunchbang.org/forums/viewtopic.php?id=21742 [08:20] I dig the new 13.04 but how come Chrome won't work? [08:22] th0r, The following packages will be REMOVED: gvfs-backends software-center xubuntu-desktop :-) [08:22] donnie, if you run chrome from the command line you might see an error that will help [08:23] I downloaded the deb. how can I try and install it from the command? Sudo apt-get install chrome? [08:23] donnie, there is a depedency error with libudev0 right? [08:23] nicklasbo, wow....wonderful how they have linked that all together. Removing xubuntu desktop is ok...it is just a meta-package. Don;'t know about software centre....but I dont use it so wouldn;'t miss it [08:23] nicklasbo: yes [08:24] donnie, Chrome have a fixed in there repository, but it haven't reached stable yet. [08:24] Ok. so I will wait a bit. I have chromium now so I'm good [08:24] Ok, you could run their daily/nighly builds. [08:25] Yeah. I'll stick with the chromium. it's really the same thing [08:25] :-) [08:25] Now to wipe out pulse and install mixer [08:25] I like it better [08:25] th0r, thanks for your help :-) [09:35] today my HDMI Audio output option dissapeared from my alsa control panel, so I can't select it for output anymore. however in terminal, and in my sysinfo the hard still shows up. [09:50] i need help about boot in 13.94 [09:50] 13.04 [10:58] hi, i'm having a problem getting the 13.04 ISO to boot [10:59] just wondering if anyone else has or if it's a problem with my discs or something [11:00] try checking for disc errors [11:00] also check if you haven't downloaded 64 bit for 32 bit pc [11:00] i've got an x64 PC and have the x64 image [11:00] if you didn't get the download from a torrent - check the md5sum for it [11:01] ah, forgot about the checksum [11:03] okay, the checksum matches, but if i try to mount the ISO on my machine to check it works, i get an error saying no valid FSes found [11:04] actually, forget that, i just tried mounting a 12.04 ISO for comparison and that gives the same error [11:04] you have intel pc/ [11:04] ? [11:04] yep [11:04] then 32 bit pal [11:05] not if the machine's 64 bit :) [11:05] it's a C2D with x64 support, i've had Xubuntu 12.04 x64 running on it but i messed it up :) [11:05] even if it's 64 bit, those iso are mostly for amd [11:05] archiecture's the same [11:06] there is no difference between running 64 bit and 32 bit pal [11:06] like i say, i've had 12.04 x64 working on this machine. in fact it still boots, but i've messed up NetworkManager [11:06] there is if you have a tonne of RAM ;) [11:07] there isn't since 32 pal uses all the ram anyway [11:07] but you can argue with me, and never get intel machine running if iso doesn't supports intel [11:08] ronalds: the 64 bit iso is not called amd because it's only for amd [11:08] it's because AMD defined the architecture so the name stuck, but Intel use the same [11:08] then write another disk, till you get it working, what can I say [11:09] will do, burning a different DVD now [11:09] Gargravarrr: so when you try to boot what does it actually do? [11:09] I seriously doubt that 64 bit version will give any improvment over 32 bit pal intel image [11:10] elfy: nothing, doesn't see the DVD as a bootable disc [11:10] but maybe [11:10] Gargravarrr: you burning as an image I assume and have set bios to boot from cd first [11:10] maybe it's uefi [11:10] ronalds: there are certain things x64 does more efficiently than x86, like video processing which i do from time to time [11:11] I do video processing on my intel 32 bit with hd 3000 integrated card [11:11] elfy: i used the boot popup menu to specifically select the CD drive [11:11] I don't seem to run in any problems [11:11] i'm not saying x86 can't do it, but if the CPU upports x64, it's more efficient to use x64 versions [11:11] Gargravarrr: ok - and as ronalds - uefi? [11:11] the board is definitely not UEFI, it's plain BIOS :) [11:12] and it's burnt as an ISO ? [11:12] yep [11:13] does it get to the man/keyboard stage? if it does that - hit a key and there are some options at F6 - nomodeset acpi etc [11:13] I had this problem on old hardware as lubuntu didn't wanted to run [11:13] but xubuntu seemed to run on anything [11:14] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Changing_the_CD_Boot_Option_Configuration_Line [11:14] installing ubuntu and then xubuntu-desktop, would give the same thing [11:14] you could remove ubuntu packages after install [11:14] hmm, wonder if i'd have better luck booting it off a pen drive instead of a DVD [11:15] I always use those now [11:15] how do i access a windows network's shared folders? [11:15] elfy: like i said, it doesn't detect the disc as bootable so it skips to the main HDD [11:15] or even taking 12.04 and upgrading it to 12.10 and later to 13.04 or rewriting precise in sources with raring [11:15] i wanted to do that but i messed up NetworkManager and can't get online [11:15] Gargravarrr: ceertainly sounds like it's not recognising that the disc is an image [11:16] Gargravarrr: I use unetbootin [11:16] I would try another distro by this time [11:16] i only have a 3G connection at the moment so downloading ISOs is expensive :) [11:17] right, new disc has finished burning, let's try it out... [11:17] too bad for you, btw whats your hardware? [11:18] Core 2 Duo 3GHz, 4GB RAM, 320GB HDD, GF550Ti [11:18] a little old, sure :) but plenty fast enough for what i need [11:19] I would say gaming machine as you have nvidia [11:19] yep [11:19] also nVidia are the only cards that properly work with Linux in any form [11:19] why not run usual ubuntu, don't like unity? [11:20] kde also is fine choice with 13.04 [11:21] yeah, absolutely hate Unity, <3 Xfce [11:21] almost any card nowadays works fine with linux, but you don't get gaming factor on some of them [11:22] I have pc that used to run win 2000 and now it has xubuntu 12.04 with no problems [11:22] i used to like ATi until AMD bought them, since then their driver support in windows has gotten worse for me, so i went nVidia-exclusive [11:22] can't play games that used to run in windows, but good for skype, web browser, and family needs [11:22] yeah, i know, this machine used to run 12.04 okay, with a few issues from upgrading from 11.10 [11:23] so i want to do a fresh install [11:23] elfy: if i want to boot from a pen drive, do i just dd the ISO to the USB disk? [11:24] you could but I use unetbootin [11:24] what's that? [11:25] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UNetbootin [11:25] that's quite neat [11:26] yep - works for me :) [11:26] and there's a Mac port too, fantastic [11:26] :) [11:34] I love all the environments for different purpoises [11:34] kde has homerunner widget which can replace unity [11:34] with 13.04 [11:35] so if xubuntu 13.04 doesn't run, I can suggest trying kubuntu with kde 4.10 [11:35] thanks for the suggestion, but i would much rather stick with Xfce [11:36] if 13.04 really won't install, i'll drop back to 12.04LTS [11:39] I just can't imagine living without ability to search for all the docs and apps in one smooth app [11:43] i almost never use search, and i use Launchy as an app launcher [11:50] weird. UNetbootin didn't throw any errors, but trying to boot from the USB disk doesn't seem to be working [11:54] Gargravarrr: I'd double check the boot options, sometimes usb has been seen as a hdd rather than a usb [11:55] i definitely get the USB disk in the bootable disk popup [11:56] k - well if you've done the deed with unetbootin and you've checked the iso checksum I don't know [11:56] yeah :S never had this problem before [11:57] me neither [11:57] bingo, had to do it manually [11:57] excellent [11:58] well, i hope this works. last time i tried to install Xubuntu from a USB disk it failed spectacularly :S [11:58] CD-RWs have always been my preferred approach. darn 13.04 for being just a smidge too big! [11:58] well - I've been installing with USB's for a couple of years without issue [11:59] dvd's not even connected lol [11:59] heh. last time, i tried to install 12.04 on a Dell workstation, but it errored out before it finished installing. wrote the same image to a CD-RW and it installed perfectly [12:00] :) [12:05] now, fingers crossed this won't break my Win7 install [12:19] good news, 13.04 booted up fine :) [12:19] excellent [12:19] question: what happens about nVidia drivers in this version? i don't see the 'Additional Drivers' option anywhere [12:20] settings manager - software sources - last tab in that is where additional drivers lives now [12:21] software and updates perhaps :) [12:22] yep, found it, thanks [12:22] loads of different versions, i assume i should be using the 'tested' one? [12:24] stupid question, actually :) [12:25] I get totally confused by the long list ... I use nouveau :) [12:25] I think it's the 310 one [12:26] yeah. nouveau's okay, but i like having full 3D support [13:08] fantastic, everything installed and working. now typing this from the xubuntu machine ^_^ [13:12] woo [13:12] thanks for your help guys, much appreciated [14:11] Is it just me or am I missing the panel Icon that would normally tell me when I had messages waiting? thought it was the indicator plugin, but when I try adding that I realize I have two of that. [17:10] good evening all [17:10] someone can give me a little help? [17:10] gatsu1000: just ask.. we'll see [17:11] how can i see which video card i've on the motherboard? [17:12] gatsu1000: i would google the manufacturers site.. or look on the box, or the case.. or run a live CD on the hardware and run "lspci".. or use whatever device recognition there is on whatever OS is on the hardware [17:12] i've installed xubuntu a couple of days ago [17:12] but not much used to it, sorry [17:13] ok, found^^ thanks a lot^^ [17:13] now i've just to figure out how to set the color deep of the monitor... [17:14] gatsu1000: i would take it slow.. if it was windows you were running before, think about how long you used windows "as-is".. without setting *anything* [17:15] i see, but i've a couple of issues i can't fix in any way... [17:16] gatsu1000: just elaborate about them here, or another support avenue and maybe a volunteer can help [17:17] i think i've some video issue; for example, flashplayer just make me listen music but video is somewhat corrupted [17:17] gatsu1000: I like it. [17:17] and "desktop" background seems to be with a wrong color dept [17:17] gatsu1000: seems? [17:18] gatsu1000: Have you looked in the Settings Manager? [17:18] mmm, i don't know how to explain it... [17:18] gatsu1000: i wouldnt worry about the wallpaper.. first thing i would do is consider using a proprietary graphics driver if one is available [17:18] In the Hardware section I see Display. [17:18] i'm trying to search for it, but can't understand exactly which one is [17:19] gatsu1000: is it youtube that is the issue? in flash?.. you can try the html5 trial https://www.youtube.com/html5 [17:19] with lsmod, in video i see i915 [17:19] Oh that's odd. I see resolution (really mode, that's mislabelled) and refresh rate but not colour depth. [17:19] yep ball, same here [17:19] you can try the chrome browser from google (which is the only way to get the current flash in linux) [17:19] same issue [17:20] gatsu1000: open a terminal window and try "xwininfo", click on the root (blank part of the desktop). [17:21] Mine says Depth: 24 [17:21] xwininfo: Window id: 0x1600003 "Scrivania" Absolute upper-left X: 0 Absolute upper-left Y: 0 Relative upper-left X: 0 Relative upper-left Y: 0 Width: 1280 Height: 1024 Depth: 15 Visual: 0x20 Visual Class: TrueColor Border width: 0 Class: InputOutput Colormap: 0x22 (installed) Bit Gravity State: NorthWestGravity Window Gravity State: NorthWestGravity Backing Store State: NotUseful Save Under State [17:21] gatsu1000: You're right, you're only running 15-bit colour [17:21] Is this a laptop? [17:22] np, hp desktop [17:22] don't know how to change the depth anyway... [17:23] gatsu1000: That's what I'm trying to figure out for you. [17:23] oh, thank you :) [17:23] In the Display control panel, what monitor does it say you have? [17:24] someone seems to tell to edit xorg.conf or something like that [17:24] a custom xorg.conf can help.. sometimes i load up a knoppix live cd or puppy, and configure the graphics there and grab the xord.conf [17:24] samsung electric company 17" [17:24] but i don't know where and how to do it :P [17:26] * ball keeps looking [17:27] where i can find xorg.conf? [17:27] mmm, it seems it doesn't exist [17:28] gatsu1000: right.. but you *can* put one inplace.. and force some things [17:28] same question: how? :P [17:28] but, its not trivial.. thats why i use a live CD to help me make one that i know will work [17:29] ah... [17:29] i tried un reconfigure... [17:29] gatsu1000: i literally load up a live CD such as puppy, since there is a nice wizard... and i make certain that i see the deskop look *exactly* as i want.. then i grab the xorg.conf, and put it in place on my ubuntu rig.. tweaking if necessary [17:29] Oh hang on, there's a settings editor! [17:29] why? because i am not skilled enough to create one from scratch [17:30] great ball! [17:30] Oh wait, how much video RAM have you given the computer? [17:30] erm... how can i see it? [17:30] Probably in your CMOS setup program (often incorrectly called BIOS) [17:31] !bios [17:31] if i remember well, 128mb at least, maybe 256 [17:31] gatsu1000: confirm that.. that could be the issue [17:31] ah... what i need to put? [17:32] because i need a restart... the command !bios doesn't give any results [17:32] gatsu1000: the bios is specific to your hardware.. and will be reached specifically based on your hardware [17:33] so, the only way i know is to reboot the pc [17:33] gatsu1000: that is the way you confirm how much ram is set to be shared with your graphics device as ball has pointed out can be an issue [17:34] ok, give me a sec... checking and coming back [17:34] is that the problem? likely not, but you need to make a list and troubleshoot === TheSheep_ is now known as TheSheep [17:41] WB gatsu1000 [17:41] thanks... bios doesn't have video memory that could be set... [17:42] gatsu1000: what would i do? load up a live CD with nomodeset [17:42] !nomodeset [17:42] A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen.

I'm on 32-bit for which it suggests ubuntu 10.04 which seems old . the other one says 12.04 (multi-arch) but what does multi-arch mean?

[18:57] I think I installed Skype using a package from the Skype Website. [18:57] are we talking about software centre or synaptic? [18:58] livingdaylight, i believe you can do it from both [18:59] don't see it in software center [19:00] livingdaylight, alternatively, 'sudo apt-get update' in a terminal [19:18] have a jnlp file for which I've installed webstart from software center.

[19:35] i can neither set nor verify the status of that bit using the GUI which is kinda unuseful [19:37] I already checked "http://docs.xfce.org/xfce/thunar/working-with-files-and-folders" first. It doesnt mention anything on the issue [19:38] seronis, what are you trying to mark as executable [19:39] jar files [19:39] seronis, I don't think jar files are executable. They are run using 'java something.jar' if I remember right [19:40] the JRE refuses to execute jars that dont have the executable flag set [19:42] i opened a terminal and just chmod'd the file.. but its something that SHOULD have been available in the gui [19:44] Hi, can someone help me with java webstart?

In Xfce terms, is this the top-level menu? [20:49] I'm interested in learning how to edit it, but all the researching I've done seems focused on the Applications menu. [20:51] it's hard coded anyway, you can only edit the application menu [21:20] brainwash : right now I'm working in Voyager, which is an Xubuntu knockoff. The "top-level" menu that I'm talking about is different from the Xubuntu default - and yes, I know, this channel only supports Xubuntu. [21:20] But my point is, if I want to edit this menu in Xubuntu, since it seems to be possible, how do I do it? === noirguy is now known as amerigena === reverendp is now known as 16WAAWH67 [21:29] noirguy, it's the right-click menu of xfdesktop and can't be changed by editing a config file [21:31] Hello everyone, I have a stability issue with xubuntu. It is freezing up a bunch times. [21:31] brainwash : if that's the case, then how do these people who do remasters like Voyager edit the menu? [21:32] Do they create an entirely new menu? [21:34] I don't know what to do with the OS frequently freezing on as I am new to Linux in general. [21:34] amerigena, you can change the menu, but not without recompiling the code [21:35] OK. [21:36] amerigena, just checked some pictures of Voyager.. what the heck :) [21:37] What the heck what? [21:37] amerigena, can you upload a screenshot of the right-click menu? [21:37] amerigena, the desktop looks.. different :) [21:37] It's very different. [21:38] I'm working on that screenshot right now. [21:38] hi guys. tell me please. what's name of volume regulator app in 12.04 [21:39] xubuntu646, download badblocks & testdisk w/ photorec. check the drive for errors [21:39] or sound properties [21:39] xubuntu646, you should check some of the log files located in /var/log [21:40] jooves, you mean the volume indicator in the top panel? [21:40] jooves, if you mean the panel applet itself its ubuntu's sound-indicator, the app that opens upon clicking "sound settings" is called pavucontrol [21:40] xubuntu646, smartctl [21:40] thanks [21:42] okay, I will try my best. Again complete noob at Linux. :-( [21:45] @SunStar where you find badblocks and smartctl? [21:46] smartctl i got from repo (possibly kubuntu repo) [21:46] brainwash : I don't spend much time on IRC. How do I upload the screenshot? [21:47] amerigena, imgur.com [21:47] amerigena, use a web service like http://imageshack.us/ [21:48] http://imageshack.us/content_round.php?page=done&id=4tHclZ2il6GynaTV1NrO4NzQ3sbW5sne3snj1tPi2prp0tw [21:49] That should be it brainwash [21:49] My desktop is different from the default Voyager setup, but it's not that far removed. [21:50] amerigena, you shared the wrong link i guess [21:51] aye im just getting ads myself [21:52] http://imageshack.us/a/img22/1599/rightclickscreenshot.png is a more direct link [21:54] aren't those custom actions defined in Thunar? the top and bottom part of the menu isn't any different [21:54] http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/211/rightclickscreenshot.png/ [21:54] try that link [21:55] ye, the previous one already worked :) [21:55] so you should be able to add more custom actions to the center of the menu [21:56] Thunar does manage those custom actions [21:57] edit > configure custom actions.. [21:58] but maybe i'm wrong.. abandoned Thunar like years ago :D [21:59] Perfect. That's exactly what I was looking for. [21:59] Thank you very much.
