[00:23] <dunpeal> Is there a way to cycle hidden windows?
[00:23] <dunpeal> I disabled them from appearing in the regular task switcher, but can I someone still access them through the keyboard?

[02:36] <llldino> Hey guys, ld appreciate some help on this one. I've recently updated Ubuntu LTS 12.04, and my nvidia driver is only giving me one resolution setting. I've done nvidia-setting and the driver says "You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver.  Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server." i've done this and nothing changes.
[03:37] <kingnick42> I'm running Xubuntu 13.04, and my wifi is really slow and buggy
[03:37] <kingnick42> I have not had this issue with Xubuntu 12.04, Ubuntu 13.04, LMDE, or all the other distros I've tried
[03:37] <kingnick42> my wireless card is an Intel  Centrino Wireless-N 100
[03:37] <kingnick42> Any ideas?
[03:39] <psycho_oreos> Either a newer kernel driver and/or (possibly) microcode issue. Though bandwidth regression is somewhat well known.
[03:40] <kingnick42> That went a little over my head....what fix should I try?
[03:40] <psycho_oreos> Technically it shouldn't be an issue if you had no issues with Ubuntu 13.04 as it is the same version as Xubuntu 13.04 minus the desktop layout. Hmm, maybe heavy bandwidth usage throughout the day?
[03:41] <psycho_oreos> Disregard what I said, just noticed you mentioned you had no issues with Ubuntu 13.04. It's virtually the same as Xubuntu 13.04 minus the default DE/WM package.
[03:42] <kingnick42> Yea, that's why I found it odd. Its been like this ever since Xubuntu 13.04  was installed though. Plugging in an ethernet always results in nice, fast, reliable internet.
[03:43] <kingnick42> The network is a private wifi, with about 5 devices connected. An ipod, right next to my computer, works fine while my computer doesn't.
[03:44] <psycho_oreos> Not that private wifi matters, it's moreso to do with nearby networks and potential other interferences that can matter.
[03:45] <kingnick42> 2 other wifi networks are detected. Which hasn't changed from when I first put linux on
[03:45] <psycho_oreos> In other words at this point in time I do not think the computer is being the issue, let alone Xubuntu.
[03:45] <psycho_oreos> Hmm, no heavy traffic at this time and you are still getting poor connectivity?
[03:48] <kingnick42> just did a speedtest. On wifi, I got 0.46 down, and 0.49 up. On ethernet, I got 6.71 down, and 1.04 up
[03:49] <kingnick42> I'll boot into Kubuntu 13.04, and run a speedtest from wifi, on a live usb. I'll be back :)
[04:10] <deckard_> hello. i took a pic with a camera phone and then downloaded it from my email. is there a way to tell what metadata it has before posting it online?
[04:11] <deckard_> privacy concern
[04:11] <holstein> deckard_: take a look at it before you send it
[04:12] <deckard_> ya what do i look at and how?
[04:12] <deckard_> right click  properties?
[04:12] <holstein> deckard_: i literally just look at what i want, when im concerned
[04:12] <deckard_> i want to make sure they dont get my address from any possiblemetadata
[04:12] <deckard_> understand/
[04:12] <holstein> deckard_: nothing i hear about on an IRC channel would make me feel personally safe
[04:13] <deckard_> ok,ty
[04:27] <kingnick42> yep, no problems on Kubuntu 13.04. Its just Xubuntu
[04:27] <holstein> kingnick42: xubuntu 13.04? with the same upgrades applied?
[04:28] <kingnick42> yep. Xubuntu 13.04
[04:28] <kingnick42> Fully up to date.
[04:28] <holstein> kingnick42: same kernel versions?
[04:29] <kingnick42> holstein - yes
[04:29] <holstein> kingnick42: so, what do you think it is? the network managers?
[04:29] <kingnick42> holstein - I really have no idea.
[04:29] <holstein> kingnick42: its literally the same sources, so its something to do with the config, or the software version of something
[04:30] <kingnick42> holstein - its pretty much a vanilla install. I've installed chrome, workrave, and replaced xfwm4 with gala
[04:30] <kingnick42> that's it
[04:31] <holstein> kingnick42: im not saying you broke it.. im just saying, xubuntu *is* kubuntu *is* ubuntu.. the same sources
[04:31] <holstein> kingnick42: so, somewhere something is either a different version or package or config
[04:31] <kingnick42> holstein - I know, that's what's got me confused.
[04:31] <holstein> kingnick42: it will be up to you though, since you have that hardware, and can test
[04:32] <holstein> i would just load up 12.04 and not worry about it.. casually run a few live CD's and try and sort out what is going on
[07:08] <xubuntu271> ciaoooo
[07:09] <xubuntu271> c'è qualche italiano in linea??
[07:09] <Sysi> !it
[07:09] <Sysi> they should also know something about xubuntu
[07:52] <nomad> Is xfce closer to gnome 2 than mate?
[07:52] <Sysi> no
[07:53] <nomad> Is it faster than mate?
[07:53] <Sysi> it might use less RAM
[07:53] <nomad> All right thanks
[10:31] <xubuntu229> hi guys.  wondering if anybody can point me in the right direction. replaced xp w/ubuntu 12.04 on an old compaq presario 5000 but can't get the wireless working. updated drivers and other updates but no go.
[10:33] <xubuntu229> everything else seems to be working fine other than that though.  when connecting via wired connection internet works just fine, but not picking up any wifi networks at all in connections..
[10:39] <xubuntu229> appreciate any help/pointin me to where i can find problem solving/solutions!  :)
[11:31] <xubuntu366> omg irc works during xubuntu install..
[12:05] <ericbutters> hello. does someone know why ncurses shows wrong colors in default xubuntu 12,04 installation? see here for the kconfig menu: http://s11.postimg.org/duhzf5d1v/bozukrenkler.png
[12:18] <ericbutters> anyone has problem with strange ncurses color in xubuntu 12.04?
[12:19] <koegs> i think this comes from the terminals color scheme, try the same with plain xterm or terminator or any other terminal
[12:20] <ericbutters> koegs you are right. it is a xfce4-terminal issue. xterm works.
[12:21] <ericbutters> what can i do?
[12:21] <Sysi> set colors the way you want them in terminal's preferences
[12:21] <ericbutters> i will try
[12:21] <Sysi> removing color lines from ~/.config/Terminal/terminalrc sets then to xfce defaults instead of xubuntu defaults
[12:22] <Sysi> s/then/them
[12:22] <Sysi> (removing that file resets to xubuntu defaults)
[12:35] <ericbutters> Sysi thank you, that solved my issue..
[12:41] <Hexasoft> hello
[12:42] <Hexasoft> I have a strange problem: I installed my laptop ~2 weeks ago with the last xubuntu. Under my xfce session I get crashes
[12:42] <Hexasoft> it happens when I close several terminals (xfce4-terminal).
[12:43] <Hexasoft> I close them and suddenly I'm ejected from my session and back to the login screen
[12:44] <Hexasoft> I never changed the sources for apt, so only using "normal" packages
[12:45] <Hexasoft> any idea? The crash report (when I log in again) talks about SIGSEV, mostly in xfce4-terminal but also in pidgin (one time)
[12:56] <kRush> any ideas why my update indicator would just disappear after a short while when there are new updates?
[13:13] <red6m> after updating to chromium 28 - chromium browser added normal window borders that were absent before. Any way to remove them?
[13:14] <red6m> duhh. nvermind. unchecked "Use system title bar and borders" checkbox. all set.
[13:16] <Guest31359> I cannot get xubuntu live cd to boot toram.  I tried inputting toram before and after the --
[13:16] <Guest31359> I cannot get xubuntu live cd to boot toram.
[15:05] <nantou> how do I find access icons with thunar?
[15:05] <nantou> or any oder file manager?
[15:08] <elfy> access icons? what do you mean ?
[15:13] <nantou> elfy, transmission doesnt open any magnet link since a week ago and I dont know why, Im now looking for it on thunar, I dont know where to start looking
[15:14] <GridCube> looking for what?
[15:15] <GridCube> nantou: if you want to edit the mimetypes you should be able to do that from the mimetype editor from the settings manager
[15:16] <GridCube> also you can force firefox to open magnet links with any program you want
[15:16] <GridCube> also you can try to --reinstall transmission
[15:20] <xubuntu382> can i seek for a help from anyone?
[15:20] <GridCube> !ask | xubuntu382
[15:20] <baizon> xubuntu382: of course :)
[15:22] <xubuntu382> well its kind of a long questions. i wish you could help me i'm an IT student. so this are my questions about the Xubuntu my i seek for your help please i need some information regarding some of this questions:  1. background study of the OS 2. Components of the OS 3. Structure of the OS 4. System and application system supported 5. system software 6. application software 7. process management 8. memory management 9. file syste
[15:22] <nantou> GridCube, I cannot locate neither magnet nor transmission in the mimetypes menu
[15:22] <GridCube> nantou: then its a firefox setting
[15:24] <GridCube> xubuntu382: :) would you please move your questions to #xubuntu-offtopic there you can get a more relaxed converstation about your inquieries
[15:24] <xubuntu382> ok sir. thank you.
[15:27] <nantou> GridCube, odd, I have to right click and copy the magnet link for transmission to recognize it
[15:28] <nantou> GridCube, I have been experiencing some problems in the last days, I believe it could be related to a lack of free space. In at least 1 occasion I had 0 bytes of free space
[15:28] <nantou> your feedback is welcomed
[16:00] <GridCube> nantou: thats probably creating some conflicts somewhere, but i dont really know
[16:00] <GridCube> though i try to always have a good chunk of freespace
[16:02] <nantou> very odd, because last time I run out of space all my schat favorite channels were lost, that didnt happen this time
[16:02] <nantou> anyhow thanks GridCube
[16:08] <GridCube> it seems like many people is having problems with magnet links
[18:53] <Xyverz> where does xubuntu keep its xorg.conf file? The one I've put in /etc/X11/ doesn't seem to be doing much good.
[18:54] <pleia2> you put it in the right place
[18:54] <well_laid_lawn> check /var/log/Xorg.0.log and see what confs it's reading
[18:54] <Xyverz> ok, thanks. Will take a look there.
[18:55] <well_laid_lawn>  /etc/X11 is the place for a xorg.conf still
[18:55] <Xyverz> Huh. looks like it's using that config. Go figure.
[18:55] <Xyverz> We'll see what happens next time I reboot this laptop.
[18:55] <Xyverz> thanks again!
[19:30] <xubuntu165> I have downloaded Xubuntu 4 times now from different servers and the md5 sums never match the example. They all match each other though. Is there a better means of downloading?
[19:31] <holstein> !torrent
[19:31] <holstein> xubuntu165: well. specifically downloading via a torrent
[19:33] <xubuntu165> OK, I'm not well versed in torrents lately so I was just using the downloader in Firefox. I'll give the torrent a try.
[19:35] <Unit193> xubuntu165: Where'd you pull up the md5sum?
[19:37] <xubuntu165> http://releases.ubuntu.com/precise/ - downloading 12.04.2, although I also tried 13.04 yesterday
[19:38] <xubuntu165> downloading the .iso from http://mirror.anl.gov/pub/ubuntu-iso/CDs-Xubuntu/12.04/release/
[19:38] <xubuntu165> All md5 sums of downloads match each other, but not the reference
[19:39] <Unit193> xubuntu165: The first one is Ubuntu, the second is Xubuntu.
[19:39] <Unit193> http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/precise/release/
[19:45] <xubuntu165> OK, that solves it. Sorry I missed that in following the links. Many thanks!
[19:46] <nantou> how do I know if my xubuntu is encrypted?
[19:46] <holstein> nantou: did you do anything to encrypt it?
[19:46] <nantou> holstein, I think not
[19:47] <Unit193> xubuntu165: Sure.
[23:39] <xubuntu072> hi, I need some help configuring grub2. I don't get any entry to my system. Using Xubuntu 13.04. I have started my system using the grub super disk. Could someone tell me how to configure the Grub text file or anything to help me solve this?
[23:41] <GridCube> xubuntu072, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair
[23:42] <xubuntu072> GridCube: That was a big file, 500mb..
[23:57] <dunpeal> How can I get Parole to play .aac files?
