[00:58] <nOStahl> hey guys I am not sure where to ask this, I have minimal ubuntu with just open box and xserver going, how can I set it up to autologin the user instead of it booting up to command prompt
[00:58] <Unit193> Install a DM.
[00:59] <SonikkuAmerica> nOStahl: Get lightdm, it's the easiest
[01:00] <Unit193> KDM, GDM, LXDM. XDM, LightDM (ubuntu default.)
[01:00] <Unit193> Slim too.
[01:00] <SonikkuAmerica> Well, lightdm-gtk-greeter is, anyway
[01:00] <nOStahl> I didn't know slim did autologin
[01:00] <SonikkuAmerica> unity-greeter is too decorative but it is functional.
[01:01] <nOStahl> I'm making a digital display that loads a fullscreen webpage
[01:01] <Unit193> Lightdm and LXDM are pretty easy to set autologin, but you need a greeter for lightdm.

[01:02] <SonikkuAmerica> Wouldn't lightdm-gtk-greeter do the trick? Or would that pull all of GTK+ in with it
[01:02] <SonikkuAmerica> ?
[01:02] <nOStahl> was hoping to not install ton of dependancies for a login manager :P
[01:02] <nOStahl> should be able to throw a line in a config file somewhere
[01:02] <nOStahl> I'm looking into rungetty now

[13:03] <GridCube> its there a way to edit the gnumeric icons menus order?
[13:05] <GridCube> the font selection box its far to big and eats other options i want to use like color painting of cells
[13:22] <SonikkuAmerica> GridCube: I wouldn't know, does #gnumeric exist?
[13:22] <SonikkuAmerica> Nope, guess not
[13:22] <GridCube> nope
[13:23] <knome> it's part of the gnome office suite, so maybe people on the gnome channels would know
[13:24] <SonikkuAmerica> (I wonder why they can't exist on Freenode.)
[13:24] <Pici> because they have their own IRC network?
[13:24] <SonikkuAmerica> Tru dat
[13:24] <knome> i assume the real question is why they need to have their own network
[13:24] <GridCube> whats that network?
[13:24] <SonikkuAmerica> GIMPNet
[13:24] <knome> irc.gnome.org ?
[13:25] <Pici> yep
[13:25] <SonikkuAmerica> irc.gimp.org actually
[13:25] <Pici> I think.
[13:25] <knome> aha.
[13:25] <SonikkuAmerica> All things GIMP Tool Kit (or "gtk")
[13:25] <SonikkuAmerica> The gtk acronym just looks weird.
[13:25] <Pici> irc.gnome.org is a CNAME to irc.gimp.net
[13:25] <GridCube> nope, blocked by proxy
[13:25] <GridCube> i can only join freenode here
[13:26] <knome> they don't have a #gnumeric channel, but they have #gnome-office
[13:26] <knome> GridCube, or just #gnome on freenode
[13:26] <knome> " #gnome - Unofficial GNOME help channel on freenode. (irc.freenode.net) "
[13:27] <knome> anyway... i need to run soon

[16:47] <p3d4N7ic> Does anyone know how to manually set up an LVM with the Xubuntu LiveCD? It doesn't seem to come equipt with the proper controls. Do I have to use a different CD, or do I have to use command line to do it? I just want a little guidance, I'm sure I can figure it out after that
[16:48] <GridCube> !lvm

[16:49] <GridCube> p3d4N7ic, at that level any config will be the same either in xubuntu or mainbuntu
[16:49] <SonikkuAmerica> Hey stuffin
[16:49] <stuffin> hello, this is the xubuntu help?
[16:49] <stuffin> hi
[16:49] <SonikkuAmerica> Yep
[16:49] <GridCube> !hi | stuffin
[16:49] <ubottu> stuffin: Hi!, Welcome to #xubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines. Enjoy your stay!
[16:49] <stuffin> oh good. so i seem to have lost the sound slider , i am in xfce right now
[16:49] <p3d4N7ic> Thank you very much ubottu and GridCube, I really appreciate it
[16:49] <stuffin> i also dont see any sound settings in the settings manager
[16:49] <GridCube> stuffin, go to the panel and re-add the indicatos plugin
[16:49] <SonikkuAmerica> GridCube: I keep forgetting about the !hi command... why don't we have that in the other *buntu channels?
[16:50] <stuffin> o try
[16:50] <stuffin> i*
[16:50] <GridCube> SonikkuAmerica, i dunno, i have them everywhere
[16:50] <GridCube> P:
[16:50] <SonikkuAmerica> I can't seem to make that !command work... :P
[16:50] <stuffin> oh yes! ty GridCube
[16:50] <stuffin> i can keep the sound now and not the bluetooth icon or the arrows?
[16:50] <GridCube> stuffin, remove the broken indicator plugin
[16:51] <SonikkuAmerica> <ubottu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hi <<< GridCube, that's what I get outside of #xubuntu... weird.
[16:51] <GridCube> stuffin, sorry i dont understand
[16:51] <GridCube> SonikkuAmerica, oh well
[16:51] <stuffin> when i choose indictor, it is sound, bluetooth icon and two arrows, one up one down
[16:51] <GridCube> yes thats networking
[16:51] <stuffin> i just want sound
[16:51] <GridCube> mmm
[16:52] <GridCube> if you rea-add the indicator the pavucontrol  doesnt reappear?
=== emma_ is now known as em
[16:52] <GridCube> if you "close" the plugin indicators it will restart itself for networking
[16:52] <GridCube> but it will not re add the sound control
[16:53] <stuffin> i rea-add the indicator three times it always give me back those 3
[16:53] <GridCube> you have to manually restart the plugin indicators for the sound application to re appear
[16:53] <GridCube> oh, it has to have them 3
[16:53] <stuffin> ok, but now i also dont hear the sound when adjusting the audio, like the little "plop"
[16:54] <GridCube> be sure you are outputing to the proper device
[16:54] <GridCube> check the last tab for the sound settings, check that sound its going to programs in the proper output
[16:54] <stuffin> it is, ty
[16:55] <GridCube> if you have hdmi and analog it might be going to the one you are not currently using
[16:55] <stuffin> all speake tests work
[16:55] <stuffin> strange
[16:55] <GridCube> open alsa-mixer on a terminal and check that nothing its muted
[16:56] <stuffin> hope do i open it?
[16:57] <stuffin> how*
[16:57] <GridCube> open a terminal and type alsamixer
[16:58] <stuffin> they all look good
[16:58] <stuffin> maybe just a restart
[16:59] <stuffin> one last question if i can. I decided to install the most recent proprietary driver, is that ok? i didnt see much difference with the other proprietary.
[17:02] <GridCube> yes thats fine
[17:03] <stuffin> ty
[17:03] <GridCube> generic should work though i dont have any problem with them, though i do not have privative for this machine to try P:
[17:03] <stuffin> generic wont work well enough
[17:03] <stuffin> hey, do i need install gstreamer?
[17:04] <GridCube> if you installed xubuntu-restricted-extras you got all what you need
[17:04] <stuffin> i dont think i did
[17:05] <stuffin> unless it come with it
[17:05] <GridCube> if you checked the "install media stuffs" in the installer while installing you should, you can do a fast check using sudo apt-get install xubuntu-restricted-extras
[17:06] <stuffin> i will ty
[17:06] <GridCube> if it says its in its latest version you already have it, if it ask you to install a gazillion programs its not installed :P
[17:06] <stuffin> it is installing, ty again
[17:07] <GridCube> dont worry :)
[17:07] <stuffin> do you know of good usenet download?
[17:07] <stuffin> gui
[17:07] <GridCube> not really
[17:07] <stuffin> k
[17:07] <GridCube> !search usenet
[17:07] <ubottu> Found:
[17:07] <GridCube> nop
[17:07] <GridCube> !find usenet

[17:07] <GridCube> oh there seems to be some many
[17:08] <stuffin> hotdog! i try
[17:08] <GridCube> :)
[17:39] <blue_pearl> in Xubuntu 13.04 command in /etc/rc.local not executing when computer starts , what can be the problem?
[17:41] <brainwash> blue_pearl, rc.local might be executed even before the X server is running
[17:42] <brainwash> blue_pearl, try to delay your command in rc.local
[17:48] <blue_pearl> brainwash, ooh , i see
[17:50] <brainwash> blue_pearl, you can also use the lightdm script hooks to run commands on startup
[17:50] <brainwash> blue_pearl, or upstart :)
[17:50] <blue_pearl> brainwash, ok, thanks
[18:12] <jdr> Hi Folks, I've got a pc with xubuntu 10.04 on it (booting from sda3). I want to install xubuntu 13.04 (but have no usb bootable pc and no cddrive).
[18:13] <jdr> Any solution on how I can install xubuntu from a partition?
[18:13] <SonikkuAmerica> jdr: Does it have an Internet connection?
[18:13] <jdr> yes
[18:13] <SonikkuAmerica> All you need
[18:14] <SonikkuAmerica> jdr: STEP 1: Open a terminal and type [ do-release-upgrade ].
[18:14] <SonikkuAmerica> jdr: That will get you to 12.04 LTS.
[18:15] <jdr> I tried so, but it does not want to boot any more after I upgraded
[18:15] <SonikkuAmerica> jdr: Why not?
[18:15] <jdr> some errors like colord? group did not exist etc
[18:15] <bekks> Which errors exactly?
[18:15] <jdr> do I have to upgrade all of my packages first before doing the upgrade to 12.04?
[18:16] <SonikkuAmerica> jdr: You shouldn't have to. But bekks is right. We need !details
[18:17] <jdr> ok, I give it another try then and post the errors as I encounter them. sec
[18:17] <SonikkuAmerica> jdr: It's recommended that you run [ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ] first, just to be safe.
[18:18] <jdr> That's idd what I am going to try first. Make sure my system is up to date, then upgrade to 12.04

[18:27] <ubottu> Launchpad bug 751689 in linux (Ubuntu Precise) "ThinkPads overheat due to slow fans when on 'auto'" [Critical,Confirmed]
[18:27] <peyam> i find this
[18:47] <hylian> i was wondering if anyone knows that Xubuntu 12.04 LTS help docs say "Welcome to Xubuntu 11.10!"
[18:48] <hylian> it says it in
[18:48] <hylian> it says it in file:///usr/share/xubuntu-docs/about/xubuntu-index.html
[18:48] <knome> hylian, it's outdated, but known bug
[18:50] <hylian> ok, so long as it's known about. That's all I needed to worry about. So it is on launchpad or something? And, do I use launchpad, being that i am not a directly Ubuntu user?
[18:52] <hylian> well, i answered my own questions, with google, thanks knome!
[18:52] <knome> hylian, i don't know if it's in launchpad, but we (xubuntu team) are working on it
[18:52] <knome> *can't remember :)
[18:52] <knome> no problem
[18:53] <hylian> before I go, i have to say that Xubuntu rocks! KDE is now my second fave, but it still holds no candle to XFCE.
[19:02] <seronis> knome, does the xubuntu team also fix bugs / missing features in things like Thunar?  So far in 2 weeks i've found that it doesnt allow editing (or even seeing the status of) the executable bit on files.  And it doesnt support  ctrl-tab and ctrl-shift-tab for navigating between tabs
[19:02] <knome> seronis, not really. check the xfce bugzilla for that
[19:03] <knome> seronis, (we can if it's critical, but this is more towards feature request)
[19:06] <seronis> ok thanks for quick response. i havent bothered filing bug reports / feature requests on those yet BECAUSE they're such small issues. Waiting till im comfortable enough with the environment to be able to submit a patch along with the report.  just wanted to know which group would be most receptive
[19:07] <knome> seronis, ubuntu-bug thunar files a bug about thunar to launchpad against the thunar package in ubuntu, but with xfce we usually forward people to file upstream bugs anyway
[19:07] <knome> s/about/for/
[19:21] <jdr> @SonikkuAmerica: I've updated all packages, and now running Distribution upgrade to 12.04. I encounter error as in: http://pastebin.com/gNSSnKyD
[19:21] <jdr> Will killall xscreensaver and killall xlockmore do the trick here?
[19:21] <SonikkuAmerica> jdr: Instead of that...
[19:22] <SonikkuAmerica> jdr: I would recommend disabling the screen saver and the screen locker in xfce4-settings-manager
[19:26] <jdr> ok upgrading

[20:18] <jdr> SonikkuAmerica: upgrade went fine right now. System could reboot.  to get from 12.04 to 13.04: does this require me to get to 12.10 first ?
[20:19] <SonikkuAmerica> Yes.
[20:20] <SonikkuAmerica> And you'll have to tweak [ software-properties-gtk ] to do it.
