drekiim using 12.0405:27
vorsorkendreki: Settings Manager -> Window Manager Tweaks -> Accessibility, then you can change or disable "key used to grab and move windows"05:36
drekivorsorken: Thank you, I looked in settings but i overlooked "window manager tweeks" because of "window manager" haha.05:38

PoxyHi everybody!11:53
PoxyI have a problem with X. I have a laptop (zepto znote 3415w) with a geforce 8600m GT. I tried the proprietary drivers from within xubuntu, but never got xubuntu to recognize my graphics card. The native resolution of my display is 1280x800, but xubuntu only gives me 1024x768 and no hardware acceleration. I tried booting into recovery mode and starting lightdm from the root shell, and all of a sudden, everything worked. Native resolution11:56
PoxyI haven't used linux for a couple of years, and the last time xorg.conf was the holy grail of X. Now, it seems to me, the everything has been simplified or automatized, since neither nvidia-xconfig or using a skeleton xorg.conf or manually edited xorg.conf gives me a resolution higher than 800x600 or 1024x768. How can i get the settings that were used when i started lightdm from the recovery root shell, to be used every time?11:58

brainwashedntzrmtthihu777, try #winehq16:14
brainwashedntzrmtthihu777, i actually used to play lotro, isn't the patchclient.dll delivered by turbine?16:15
ntzrmtthihu777brainwashed: I'm in that channel, no reply. yes, but I have no windows box to get the newest with.16:31
ntzrmtthihu777brainwashed: I don't suppose you still have that dll laying around :P16:44
brainwashedntzrmtthihu777, no :(16:48
ntzrmtthihu777dang, lol. well I've been installing a winxp vm all this while, so I should be able to get it, mebbe.16:49
brainwashedntzrmtthihu777, so the turbine launcher still doesn't work? never actually used pylotro, only a shell script for updating/connecting to the server16:51
brainwashedthat's offtopic anyway :P16:52
ntzrmtthihu777yeah, the turbine one still is crap.16:52
xubuntuRSAHi. Any help would be much appreciated. I have recently installed Xubuntu 13.04 and am very happy with it. The only issue I have is I cannot connect and stream music to my belkin bluetooth audio reciever. I get the error: stream setup failed. In the past the bluetooth manager (in mint) never requested a password and it worked fine. Is there anything I can try to get this working. I am currently using blueman. Many thanks17:19
drekiCan anyone tell me what pkages would get uninstalled if I did "sudo apt-get purge pulseaudio"? I did that in an effort to reinstall pulse and now i cant figure out which package puts the indicator on the panel.17:33
ntzrmtthihu777dreki: the volume indicator?17:34
drekiyeah17:34
drekipackages*17:34
ntzrmtthihu777xfce4-mixer17:34
ochosintzrmtthihu777: nah, it's indicator-sound17:35
ochosi(xfce4-mixer doesn't really work with pulseaudio, as it's written for gstreamer)17:35
ntzrmtthihu777ochosi: may be so, but I got the xfce4-mixer installed, and I have it now.17:35
ntzrmtthihu777whereas before I did not. Not that I really need it, just a perk.17:36

drekiwell i already had indicator-sound reinstalled but still no sound icon on my bar. What should i try next?17:38
ochosidreki: in that case you might have to add the indicator-plugin to the panel17:38
ochosidreki: right-click the panel > add new item > indicator plugin17:38
ochosior maybe indicator-sound-gtk2 isn't installed. that's more precisely the package you need17:39
ochosialso: restart panel just in case (xfce4-panel --restart)17:39
drekioh i dont have the gtk2 one. what is indicator-sound then?17:40
ochosithe general and gtk3 package17:40
ochosig2g, bbl17:40
drekido i need it?17:40
