[10:51] <pepijn> What is the best way to have keyboard shortcuts work like on Mac, instead as like Windows?
[10:51] <Sysi> settings -> window manager
[10:52] <Sysi> though I don't think you can change copy&paste shortcut
[10:52] <pepijn> well, that's kind of the most important one
[10:53] <Sysi> hmm, you could map ctrl to be super/cmd but I'll need to look up a nice way to do that
[10:54] <pepijn> but if you do that you'll break the terminal, which uses ctrl+c to erminate
[10:55] <Sysi> no, then you'll just do cmd-C for that too
[10:56] <pepijn> Sysi, that is what I mean, I'll have t do cmd+shift+C to paste in the terminal
[10:57] <pepijn> The beauty of sing cmd is that you have ctrl for other stuff
[10:58] <Sysi> well that just isn't possible afaik
[10:58] <Sysi> but when you hilight text you can paste with middle click
[11:01] <pepijn> :(
[11:02] <pepijn> then I might as well not bother, because It'll never work the way I want.
[11:02] <pepijn> If I remap cmd to ctrl, I'll still need to use tab to cycle windows
[11:03] <pepijn> and press cmd+shift+C for the terminal
[11:05] <Sysi> hmm, I don't have xfce terminal at hand right now, so could you check if it has option for changing the paste key combination?
[11:06] <Sysi> some other terminal might have it even if xfce4-terminal doesn't
[11:07] <Sysi> so you could use cmd-c everywhere else, but ctrl-c in terminal
[11:13] <Oweoqi> hi all, does Xubuntu send any data of any kind to Canonical?
[11:15] <Sysi> you mean when you install it? no
[11:16] <Oweoqi>  oh no, just during every day use such as how (by default) Unity send search data to back to them
[11:16] <Oweoqi> Anything similar in Xubuntu?
[11:16] <Sysi> no, on unity you can prevent that by removing one package
[11:17] <Oweoqi> of course, this is just an example to provide context to my question
[11:17] <Sysi> I kind of figured it by myself
[11:18] <Oweoqi> cool cool, so the base of Ubuntu doesn't have anything like this?
[11:19] <Sysi> nope, it's just done by the amazon-addition in unity dash
[11:19] <brainwash> what about software center? or ubuntu one?
[11:20] <brainwash> or even package updates?
[11:20] <brainwash> they all send data to canonical :)
[11:20] <Oweoqi> oh really
[11:20] <Oweoqi> Ubuntu one makes sense
[11:21] <Oweoqi> but the other two :-.
[11:21] <Sysi> I'm doubtful about "sending" data via updates but of course they know how much stuff is downloaded, maybe even from mirrors
[11:21] <brainwash> you said "any data of any kind"
[11:22] <Sysi> I just think there's difference
[11:23] <Sysi> though I just started to reconsider that
[11:23] <Oweoqi> I'm just trying to learn about the system is all
[11:24] <Oweoqi> any data being transferred outside of a web browser is something I need to know about
[11:24] <Oweoqi> (I already know what I'm doing in the browser)
[11:25] <Sysi> http://popcon.ubuntu.com/ not sure if this is enabled by default (do you really?)
[11:26] <Oweoqi> yeah I do, it's locked down pretty tight too
[11:27] <Oweoqi> Nope popcon isn't default
[16:21] <anders_> hello there. anyone here using xubuntu and a nexus 7? I'm used to working from windows, and I cant seem to get fastboot to work etc. Googled some guides, but don't really get them. Do I need to install drivers or what is the process here? Starting from scratch
[16:23] <anders_> brb reboot
[16:29] <xubuntu938> WILL ANYBODY HELP ME FOR INSTALLING CANON LBP2900B PRINTER
[19:56] <jlack> I think there's something wrong with my sound
[19:56] <jlack> Like the pitch is higher
[19:56] <TheSheep> you sound ok to me
[19:56] <jlack> hawhaw
[19:56] <jlack> it's not my headphones
[20:12] <jlack> anyone
[20:13] <jlack> oh it's just chrome
[20:14] <Mitchell92> Hi.. I just installed my nVidia driver, now it seems like I'm using a minimaliztic theme and I can't figure out how to get it back... my top bar and such is all silver.
[20:15] <Mitchell92> it apears like 3d Acceleration isnt working.
[20:18] <rowboatnick> Mitchell92: did you change any theme settings?
[20:28] <seronis> what kind of connectivity options are available with android phones and xubuntu ?
[20:30] <SonikkuAmerica> seronis: The same as any other Ubuntu flavor - get the Android SDK, connect up and run [ adb devices ]
[20:31] <TheSheep> I don't think he meant debugging
[20:31] <seronis> SonikkuAmerica: in not referring to development.  i mean integration (already have the sdk)
[20:32] <SonikkuAmerica> seronis: Oh. What kind of integration do you need? Xubuntu, like Ubuntu, can read data from Android devices OOB
[20:33] <seronis> nothing specific.  more curious what options are available/popular other than airdroid and vnc
[20:33] <seronis> because neither of those are xubuntu specific (or even linux specific)
[20:35] <SonikkuAmerica> I don't think there's anything Xubuntu-specific
[23:36] <angelite> Hello?
