krozus | hi all | 09:34 |
krozus | i run xubuntu raring 13.04 | 09:35 |
krozus | extra hiting shutdowns my laptop | 09:36 |
krozus | the extra hiting is due often to adobe flash player use | 09:37 |
ObrienDave | "hiting"? you mean heating? as in getting too hot? | 09:37 |
krozus | yep | 09:37 |
krozus | sorry | 09:37 |
ObrienDave | no problem. how old is the laptop? | 09:38 |
krozus | it's a packard bell easy note intel core duo and 4GB of ram | 09:39 |
krozus | it's 4 years old maybe | 09:40 |
ObrienDave | when was it cleaned last? | 09:41 |
krozus | last year | 09:41 |
krozus | it's the dirt on the cpu | 09:42 |
ObrienDave | i would suggest cleaning it again. most heat problems can be solved that way | 09:42 |
torax | heat problems are always hardware issue, so I would also suggest clean it and maybe check that cpu cooler is properly connected and that the fan is working correctly | 09:44 |
krozus | i was thinking about an application which is not in xbuntu looking after cpu hiting and its fan but i forgot its name | 09:44 |
ObrienDave | check for latest BIOS updates. mine had a fan control issue | 09:44 |
ObrienDave | try Psensor in the repositories | 09:48 |
krozus | right | 09:52 |
krozus | i ll give it a clean anyway :) | 09:52 |
ObrienDave | usually works :)) | 09:53 |
krozus | thanks ;) | 09:53 |
ObrienDave | you're welcome | 09:53 |
krozus | :) | 09:54 |
Arroyo1010 | Hi ther. It seems that my disk is dying. I've backed up all the files i need, and now i'd like to backup NetworkManager settings, but i can't figure out how to do this. I understand that this is not a xubuntu specific question, but maybe some of you guys could steer me in the right direction :) | 11:58 |

SoP | Hi guys, this is the first time I've ever attempted to create a more personalized desktop | 15:29 |
SoP | I would like some advice :) | 15:29 |
SoP | http://i.imgur.com/NGkigAq.jpg | 15:29 |
GridCube | not really, it looks very simple and clean | 15:32 |
GridCube | :) | 15:32 |
FoxyRK9 | Which Distro are guys using? | 15:33 |
GridCube | i like to use screenlets myself to add stuff to the desktop but thats it | 15:33 |
GridCube | FoxyRK9: you are at #xubuntu arent you? | 15:33 |
FoxyRK9 | Im currently installing Voyager Ubuntu Linux | 15:33 |
FoxyRK9 | its based off Xbuntu | 15:33 |
GridCube | thats not a supported derivative FoxyRK9, they might have their own channels | 15:34 |
Unit193 | But not supported here, there is some Voyager channel though. | 15:34 |
FoxyRK9 | it told me to come here if I get stuck | 15:34 |
Unit193 | What is "it"? | 15:34 |
FoxyRK9 | The installer | 15:34 |
GridCube | FoxyRK9: we dont know what they do to the system | 15:34 |
SoP | Well thank you GridCube :) The only thing I'd still like to change is change the color of the window decoration | 15:34 |
Sysi | you're using compiz? emerald or g-w-d | 15:35 |
GridCube | SoP: try the gtk tweaker from the shimmer proyect | 15:35 |
SoP | I'm using emerald, not gtk window decorator | 15:35 |
SoP | so i suppose that's not compatible | 15:35 |
GridCube | oh, welp | 15:35 |
FoxyRK9 | Can someone redirect me to a Voyager channel? | 15:35 |
FoxyRK9 | please | 15:35 |
Pici | !alis | 15:36 |
ubottu | alis is a services bot that can help you find channels. Read "/msg alis help list" for help and ask any questions about it in #freenode. Example usage: /msg alis list #ubuntu* or /msg alis list *http* | 15:36 |
SoP | Also, what colors would you guys advise for the terminal? | 15:37 |
FoxyRK9 | I have a quick question regarding dualbootting | 15:38 |
GridCube | i like to use #cecece | 15:38 |
GridCube | FoxyRK9: what is it ? :) | 15:38 |
SoP | I'm now using yellow text on a black background because it's easily readable | 15:38 |
FoxyRK9 | it said I was installing ubuntu, will I see 2 ubuntu's on my sceen | 15:38 |
FoxyRK9 | I use the main ubuntu 13.04 | 15:38 |
FoxyRK9 | and I wanted Voyager | 15:38 |
GridCube | voyager might not have a custom grub entry it might just call itself ubuntu | 15:39 |
FoxyRK9 | oh god | 15:39 |
GridCube | again, thats not something we would know | 15:39 |
Unit193 | FoxyRK9: Should check in, ##ubuntu-voyager, #voyager, or #VoyagerOS not sure which. | 15:41 |

Xyverz | good morning. | 17:26 |
Xyverz | my user profile has been having issues this week. I think it's related to trying different desktop methods - ubuntu-desktop, enlightenment, gnome, etc. | 17:26 |
Xyverz | I've deleted a bunch of dot-files, but still have issues when logging in. | 17:27 |
Xyverz | removed the .cache folder, .gnome, .gnome2, .gconf, .local/share/session-migration-* | 17:27 |
Xyverz | and now it's doing wonky stuff with the gtk themes - not using default themes, etc. | 17:28 |
Xyverz | Any other files/folders I should get rid of in order to get default settings for this profile? Should I just remove all dotfiles and dotdirs in my ~/ ? | 17:28 |
GridCube | Xyverz ~/.config/xfce4 would be my first try | 17:30 |
Xyverz | GridCube: thanks. | 17:41 |
Xyverz | I'll take a look at that. | 17:42 |
Xyverz | I've migrated my files to a new profile, but I'd like to clean up the original profile. | 17:42 |
Xyverz | GridCube: Thanks for the advice. That fixed the problem. =) | 17:45 |
Xyverz | very much appreciated. | 17:45 |

GridCube | Xyverz: dont worry | 18:00 |
Xyverz | It's been a long time since I've used linux full-time. getting reacclaimated kinda sucks. lol. Xubuntu is changing that, tho. Really enjoying using linux for a desktop again. | 18:02 |
GridCube | :) thats excellent | 18:05 |
xubuntu090 | help | 20:17 |
holstein | !details | xubuntu090 | 20:17 |
holstein | no bot :/ | 20:17 |
holstein | xubuntu090: share releavent details please | 20:17 |
xubuntu090 | i'm not sure how this operating system works | 20:18 |
holstein | xubuntu090: try it live.. get specific questions.. it works as more others do | 20:19 |
xubuntu090 | how do i tell what version i am runiing | 20:19 |
holstein | from a terminal lsb_release -a | 20:20 |
xubuntu090 | just plugged this unit up and don't know how to get around | 20:20 |
xubuntu090 | when i turned the unit on it says that it has not been updated in 1232 days | 20:20 |
xubuntu090 | someone gave me this pc | 20:20 |
holstein | update it if you like, though, it might be EOL version | 20:21 |
holstein | personaly, part of getting new hardware is installing a new OS on it.. booting up into an old one would be a hassle that would be not worth messing with | 20:21 |
xubuntu090 | how can i tell what version is is... how can i update | 20:22 |
holstein | xubuntu090: are you seeing what im typing? | 20:23 |
holstein | use the lsb_release -a | 20:23 |
holstein | ^^ open a terminal and type lsb_release -a | 20:23 |
holstein | xubuntu090: you can update, assuming its a supported version using an included updater, or package manager | 20:23 |
holstein | although, i would just download a new ISO and fresh install | 20:23 |
xubuntu090 | you save open a terminal... what is that... sorry to sounds so ignorant... but i only heard of this system a few moments ago | 20:26 |
holstein | xubuntu090: thats why i would go and grab a current version and install it. you dont know what you are looking at.. i dont know.. | 20:26 |
holstein | terminal is an application.. assuming you are looking at a xubuntu/ubuntu version that is running and has a terminal installed. its in the menu | 20:27 |
holstein | you click on it and enter lsb_release -a | 20:27 |
Xyverz | xubuntu090: right-click on the desktop and select "open terminal" or "open terminal here" | 20:36 |
Xyverz | then you can type in the command "lsb_release -a" | 20:37 |
xubuntu090 | unbuntu 9.04 jaunty | 20:39 |
holstein | xubuntu090: that is EOL.. so you can download a supported version and install it | 20:40 |
holstein | !download | 20:40 |
ubottu | Ubuntu installation CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com - Mirrors can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Mirrors - PLEASE use the !torrents to download !Raring, and help keeping the servers' load low! | 20:40 |
Xyverz | xubuntu090: from that same terminal, do "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade -u" | 20:49 |
Xyverz | that'll update you to the latest security patches. | 20:50 |
holstein | i dont think so | 20:50 |
Xyverz | but your system is way out of date. | 20:50 |
holstein | the repos are dead | 20:50 |
Xyverz | I have a box running 8.04 and it's still getting security updates from time to time. | 20:50 |
Sysi | it's LTS | 20:50 |
Xyverz | Oh, righte. | 20:50 |
holstein | Xyverz: 8.04 is still supported.. the server | 20:50 |
Xyverz | -e | 20:50 |
holstein | kernel updates would come in though, i would expect.. and the repos are still up | 20:51 |
holstein | 9.04 is eol | 20:51 |
Xyverz | yeah, he'll at least get the //last// updates for that repo. | 20:52 |
Sysi | no if the repo is down | 20:52 |
holstein | Xyverz: i dont think so.. the repos are dead | 20:52 |
Sysi | deleted | 20:52 |
Peyam | HEj | 20:52 |
Unit193 | Sysi: They aren't removed, they are moved to old-releases. | 20:52 |
holstein | Xyverz: they are not up at all.. not being hosted.. one could find them | 20:53 |
holstein | one could download them manually and host them.. but why? upgrading via a fresh install would be so much easier | 20:53 |
Sysi | it's EOL and has eben for a while, even with newest updates for the release | 20:53 |
holstein | or, poke around as Unit193 says and find the old ones | 20:53 |
Sysi | s/eben/been | 20:53 |
Peyam | Im using Voyager now and I can't get my Webcam microphone to work. I didn't have this issue with the usuale Xubuntu 13.04. I check the webcam mic as default in the pulseaudio. But it doesnt lock the channels. what to do? | 20:54 |
holstein | yup.. even currently totally patched 9.10 is EOL | 20:54 |
Xyverz | I stand corrected. | 20:54 |
Xyverz | nevermind. | 20:54 |
holstein | Peyam: try the voyager support avenues | 20:54 |
Peyam | holstein: it is the same as xubuntu.. | 20:54 |
Sysi | obviously not since xubuntu worked | 20:54 |
holstein | Peyam: its not, and its not supported here.. as you can see, they do make changes | 20:55 |
holstein | Peyam: try the pavucontrol app.. otherwise, you need to ask them | 20:55 |
Peyam | okej okej.. tryied that before | 20:55 |
Peyam | okej I will thanks | 20:55 |
holstein | Peyam: good luck! | 20:55 |
Peyam | no solution | 20:58 |
Peyam | it is based on xubuntu | 20:58 |
Peyam | it should be the same | 20:58 |
Peyam | they dont have anyroom here | 20:58 |
holstein | Peyam: xubuntu *is* xubuntu | 20:58 |
holstein | voyager is voyager, based on xubuntu.. we cant support it here | 20:58 |
Peyam | voyager is based on xubuntu. gets xubuntu's updates | 20:58 |
Sysi | it's different enough to be broken | 20:58 |
holstein | Peyam: maybe... maybe not.. they could pin whatever. or have custom repos | 20:59 |
Unit193 | Peyam: #ubuntu-voyager That's almost like saying mint is Ubuntu or Ubuntu is Debian. | 20:59 |
Peyam | Unit193: no channel | 20:59 |
Unit193 | Sorry, it's a double hash channel of course. | 20:59 |
holstein | Peyam: thats why i didnt say "channel".. i said avenue. what ever support they do | 20:59 |
Peyam | Voyager has nice theme | 21:00 |
Peyam | that's why I choosed it | 21:00 |
holstein | Peyam: nice is irrievant.. you need support, and we cant provide it | 21:00 |
Peyam | don't make me change back to xubuntu :( | 21:00 |
Peyam | Linux is linux | 21:00 |
Sysi | we don't, voyager might | 21:00 |
holstein | Peyam: i assure you, no one is making you do anything.. fact is, voyager is not supported here | 21:00 |
Peyam | can't believe i was in this channel for 4 days ago and now everyone is a bitch to me | 21:01 |
Unit193 | !guidelines | Peyam | 21:01 |
ubottu | Peyam: The guidelines for using the Ubuntu channels can be found here: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines | 21:01 |
Peyam | okej | 21:01 |
Peyam | I'm running xubuntu 13.04 | 21:01 |
Peyam | and skype microphone doesn't work | 21:01 |
Peyam | what to do? | 21:01 |
holstein | just in skype? | 21:02 |
Peyam | you wana say " it is just a skype issue. not related to xubuntu" | 21:03 |
Sysi | <Peyam> "... I didn't have this issue with the usuale Xubuntu 13.04. ..." | 21:03 |
Peyam | forget about it | 21:03 |
Peyam | I lied | 21:03 |
Unit193 | No, you are now and it's not welcome here. | 21:03 |
Sysi | we're glad to help with theming xubuntu | 21:04 |
dunpeal | Hi. How do I setup a shortcut for media: up/down volume, start/stop play, etc.? | 21:05 |
Sysi | dunpeal: you can try this http://xubuntugeek.blogspot.fi/2012/05/fix-adjust-sound-with-multimedia-keys.html | 21:06 |
Sysi | you need to have xfce4-volumed | 21:07 |
Sysi | play and pause might need to be set with application commands in keyboard settings -> shortcuts | 21:08 |
dunpeal | Sysi: thanks, I set up the volume up/down, but how do I make Parole play/pause on keyboard shortcut? | 21:54 |
dunpeal | This is a minimal programmer's keyboard, I don't have "multimedia keys". | 21:54 |
dunpeal | nevermind, I got it | 21:58 |
dunpeal | All you need to do is setup a keyboard shortcut for 'parole -p' | 21:58 |
Xyverz | =) | 22:03 |
