[06:27] hello. im running lubuntu after i closed my lid and opened it back up all my panel items were to the left instead of the traditional bottom right corner [10:19] quicktables is a very easy to use/configure script. The problem with quicktables is that it has been abandonware for a long time and may not be safe to deploy. Can anyone recommend me a currently developed alternative(in the form of a script) that offers the same ease of use? [12:17] Hi. My default settings from ~/.Xresources are overriden each reboot. I tried to put "xrdb -load ${HOME}/.Xresources" in ~/.xinitrc or ~/.xsession but it doesn't being executed (it's chmod u+x) === holstein_ is now known as holstein [13:49] Hi. [13:50] Where do I put things that I want to get started on each boot? [13:50] (autostart) [13:50] or, where to put script that will get autoexecuted?

[15:37] !nomodeset | kuse [15:37] kuse: 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. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter [15:38] ^^ thats an option.. also kuse, did you get to a desktop from the live CD? is this an issue that has always been? or something that broke? what broke it?
