[03:04] <Resonjul> i have a problem with a scanner and printer well its my multifuncional cx5600 stylus epson
[03:04] <Resonjul> i cant install de scanner
[03:04] <SonikkuAmerica> Resonjul: Hello and welcome to #xubuntu , the support channel for Xubuntu (and Ubuntu Studio problems that don't have to do with the actual programs themselves).
[03:04] <SonikkuAmerica> Resonjul: In Settings Manager...
[03:06] <Resonjul> thanks, i tried all, install driver from avasys, i wrote in console for install de scanner,
[03:07] <Resonjul> everything that i can read but not funtion for me in 64 and 32 bits
[03:09] <SonikkuAmerica> Resonjul: And you rebooted after installing the drivers from Avasys?
[03:10] <Resonjul> does not recognize my printer
[03:10] <Resonjul> yes, i reebot and I put the iscan-data library
[03:11] <Resonjul> I put the library lib .. dl3
[03:11] <SonikkuAmerica> Resonjul: Did you edit /lib/udev/rules.d/40-libsane.rules, as per http://www.andrels.com/wp-en_US/2011/08/how-to-install-epson-stylus-cx5600-on-ubuntu-10-04/?
[03:14] <Resonjul> ill try it
[03:14] <Resonjul> but when i install everything do not recognize the scanner
[03:15] <Resonjul> say no scanner conected
[03:15] <SonikkuAmerica> Resonjul: And it *is* connected to your computer.
[03:16] <Resonjul> yes in lsusb its there
[03:16] <SonikkuAmerica> Resonjul: Is it correctly listed as shown in the Web page above?\
[03:18] <kRush> is there some way to configure how many old kernels xubuntu should keep?
[03:18] <Resonjul> when i run lsusb appears
[03:19] <Resonjul> bus 002 device 002: ID 04b8:083f seiko epson corp. stylus dx4450
[03:19] <SonikkuAmerica> kRush: I'd install Ubuntu Tweak and have it clean out your old kernels. (Google it.)
[03:21] <SonikkuAmerica> Resonjul: After editing the rule file mentioned above, make sure you are in the saned group [ sudo usermod -aG saned <username> ], reboot, and give it a shot.
[03:22] <Resonjul> ok please wait
[03:25] <kRush> that tool looks horrible
[03:27] <SonikkuAmerica> kRush: It's not for eye-candy, it's for tweaking your system! XD
[03:28] <SonikkuAmerica> Resonjul: I'm getting sleepy so I have to get out of here for now, but tomorrow, if it still doesn't work, ping knome, Unit193 or GridCube if they're around. Bye!
[03:28] <kRush> no, I mean it looks like one of those windows tuning utilities... read their website, still no idea what the features actually are
[03:28] <Resonjul> ok thank for all sonikk
[03:41] <Psil0cybin> hey guys i need your help i just upgraded Xubuntu with all the files it recommended

[04:21] <Psil0cybin> Can anyone pleae help me?
[04:36] <holstein> Psil0cybin: you would need to ask

[04:37] <Unit193> Yes, he likes to crosspost even when told not to...
[04:47] <Psil0cybin> im very desperate atm
[04:59] <holstein> Psil0cybin: ?
[04:59] <holstein> depressed about a computer? or a kernel? its not a big deal, friend
[05:00] <holstein> machines break.. kernel updates break things.. just keep your data backed up, and plan for failure, because you will have that running *any* os
[05:31] <SanDiegoM> hi all
[05:31] <SanDiegoM> is there a way to turn off the touch pad in xubuntu 13.04 when a usb mouse is plugged in??
[05:34] <baizon> SanDiegoM: tried the Fn keys?
[05:35] <SanDiegoM> the fn keys ? what about them
[05:35] <SanDiegoM> ?
[05:35] <holstein> SanDiegoM: is there one that disables the moust?
[05:35] <holstein> mouse*
[05:36] <SanDiegoM> I want to disable the touchpad
[05:36] <holstein> SanDiegoM: correct.. the suggestion is to try that with funciton keys. assuming there are function keys that do that
[05:36] <holstein> anyways.. http://www.addictivetips.com/ubuntu-linux-tips/automatically-disable-touchpad-when-mouse-is-connected-ubuntu/
[05:37] <SanDiegoM> I do have function keys
[05:37] <SanDiegoM> but not sure how to use them to disable the touchpad
[05:37] <SanDiegoM> thanks for the link
[05:38] <SanDiegoM> in the setting manager
[05:38] <SanDiegoM> I have Mouse and Touchpad
[05:38] <SanDiegoM> but when I click on it
[05:38] <holstein> ppa looks active https://launchpad.net/~atareao/+archive/atareao
[05:38] <SanDiegoM> there is nothing about the touchpad
[05:39] <holstein> so, you want general touchpad settings?
[05:39] <holstein> what hardware?
[05:40] <SanDiegoM> a friend of mine recently installed xubuntu 13.04 64 on my dell studio
[05:40] <SanDiegoM> and everytime I type the freakin touchpad goes crazy
[05:41] <holstein> SanDiegoM: thats happened to users i have instaled for
[05:41] <holstein> installed*
[05:41] <SanDiegoM> ok I went to setting manager
[05:41] <holstein> SanDiegoM: you can try the suggestion with the  link i have tot he PPA
[05:41] <SanDiegoM> I looked at the link
[05:41] <SanDiegoM> but its for ubuntu
[05:41] <holstein> SanDiegoM: you can try to type without hitting the touchpad
[05:42] <holstein> SanDiegoM: ?
[05:42] <SanDiegoM> :(
[05:42] <holstein> SanDiegoM: xubuntu *is* ubuntu
[05:42] <SanDiegoM> what I'm trying to say is
[05:42] <SanDiegoM> I don't have the touchpad Icon that the link is showing
[05:42] <holstein> SanDiegoM: you havent added the ppa
[05:43] <SanDiegoM> sorry I don't know what a ppa is
[05:43] <holstein> !ppa
[05:43] <SanDiegoM> great
[05:43] <holstein> SanDiegoM: its a way of adding packages that do things
[05:43] <SanDiegoM> can I download it from the software center?
[05:43] <holstein> SanDiegoM: no.. thats why you have to add the PPA.. its not in your sources
[05:44] <SanDiegoM> ok
[05:44] <holstein> at the link..
[05:44] <holstein> http://www.addictivetips.com/ubuntu-linux-tips/automatically-disable-touchpad-when-mouse-is-connected-ubuntu/
[05:44] <SanDiegoM> ok brb
[05:44] <holstein> "To get started, enter the following commands in the Terminal to install Touchpad-indicator:"
[05:44] <holstein> SanDiegoM: then, the comands are liste
[05:44] <SanDiegoM> makes sense now, thank you. brbr
[05:44] <holstein> SanDiegoM: you can copy paste them
[05:44] <SanDiegoM> brb
[05:46] <SanDiegoM> ok I did it
[05:46] <SanDiegoM> thank you
[05:46] <SanDiegoM> now do I need to restart for the icon to show up"?
[05:46] <holstein> SanDiegoM: you should have either the icon, or a way to get to it
[05:46] <holstein> SanDiegoM: you might have to "start" it
[05:47] <SanDiegoM> ok let me check if I have it
[05:47] <holstein> SanDiegoM: if it were me, i would try starting it from the terminal so i can easily kill it
[05:47] <holstein> i would type "touch" in the terminal and hit "tab"
[05:48] <SanDiegoM> oh
[05:48] <holstein> if touchpad-indicator is  autocompleted, i would launch it
[05:48] <SanDiegoM> I already went to accessories and it was there
[05:48] <holstein> SanDiegoM: OK
[05:48] <SanDiegoM> I launched it
[05:48] <holstein> SanDiegoM: disregard what i said then
[05:48] <SanDiegoM> and hit disable touchpad
[05:48] <SanDiegoM> no worries
[05:48] <SanDiegoM> thank you very much
[05:48] <holstein> SanDiegoM: did it work?
[05:48] <SanDiegoM> YES!!!
[05:48] <SanDiegoM> awesome
[05:48] <SanDiegoM> thanks again
[05:48] <holstein> SanDiegoM: cool.. keep im mind.. PPA's are not officially supported
[05:49] <SanDiegoM> I freakin love ubuntu, I will never go back to windows
[05:49] <SanDiegoM> I dunno how so many people still use windows
[05:49] <SanDiegoM> smh
[05:49] <holstein> SanDiegoM: that is a relatively small one though, so i think it'll be "safe" even if it becomes unmaintained
[05:49] <SanDiegoM> cool
[05:49] <holstein> SanDiegoM: enjoy!
[05:50] <SanDiegoM> holstein, will do, take it easy
[06:29] <phunyguy> Hello, Coming from Ubuntu to Xubuntu, I have noticed a difference with my volume control. The default behavior in Ubuntu is to ensure volume is unmuted if vol-up or vol-down is pressed. In XFCE, it stays muted. This causes issues with my hardware mute button. If I press the volume keys, the hardware button unmutes, but XFCE stays muted. If I press the mute button again to unmute, it mutes the hardware button which even though XFCE shows unmuted,
[06:29] <phunyguy> sound is still muted at that point.
[06:30] <phunyguy> How can I change the buttons to trigger a mute toggle every time a volume key is pressed?
[06:30] <phunyguy> (trigger mute toggle in addition to volume change)
[07:52] <michaela> how do i nomode set xubuntu
[11:01] <xubuntu483> hi
[11:01] <xubuntu483> i need some help regarding my xubuntu installation
[11:02] <xubuntu483> it seems that I managed to brick a lot of the top panels functionality by stupidly following a tutorial and removing the sni-qt plugin
[11:03] <xubuntu483> i already tried reinstalling it, but some of the panel plugins don't work any more
[11:04] <xubuntu483> namely most of the components of the indicator plugin (like the Network Manager indicator) and most of the Action Buttons
[11:05] <xubuntu483> I'm running Xubuntu 12.04 and Xfce 4.8
[11:06] <xubuntu483> I already tried reinstalling most of the xfce packages, to no avail
[11:07] <xubuntu483> do any of you have any idea how I can get back that lost functionality?
[11:13] <ochosi> xubuntu483: have you recreated the panel from scratch again?
[11:13] <ochosi> and please define "not working"
[11:18] <xubuntu483> some of the indicators don't show up. the only ones that do are the sound indicator, the mail indicator and the skype indicator. not showing up are the Network Manager indicator and the Pidgin indicator. When clicking the Action Button plugin, all options like Suspend and Hibernate are greyed out, except for the 2 versions of logout buttons. The version that would normally open another menu where you can chose between logging out
[11:18] <xubuntu483> ...gives an error message, that reads: The name org.xfce.SessionManager was not provided by any .service files
[11:19] <xubuntu483> I tried adding and removing the plugins from the existing panel
[11:21] <xubuntu483> I also just tried adding these plugins to the bottom panel, and there they don't work properly either
[11:21] <ochosi> sry, gotta run
[11:22] <xubuntu483> k, thanks anyway
[11:23] <Mike-Linux-NL> i get this problem when i start update:
[11:23] <Mike-Linux-NL> W:Failed to fetch gzip:/var/lib/apt/lists/partial/nl.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_precise_main_source_Sources  Hash Sum mismatch
[11:23] <Mike-Linux-NL> , E:Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
[11:30] <Mike-Linux-NL> hmmm fixed it with a couple of commands, however it should not occure. there should be a patch to autofix it, without having the user look on the internet for solutions, and end up typing several commands
[15:49] <chreestopher> hello world! , just finally removed windows from my laptop and installed xubuntu , ive been putting this off for too long!
[15:50] <chreestopher> I am mainly coming over to linux because i want to learn more about computers and programming , I was wondering if anyone has any good resources for people who want to get started in programming?
[17:22] <shurtagul> can someone help me with chromium? It keeps crashing after several seconds :c
[17:23] <Unit193> Run it from the terminal, see if you get any output.
[17:24] <shurtagul> How would i do that?
[17:25] <Unit193> Open terminal, type chromiu<tab>
[17:26] <shurtagul> $ bash: syntax error near unexpected token `newline'
[17:27] <shurtagul>  i typed in "chromium-browser" and it opened, but closed after a few seconds like normal
[17:51] <nantou> how do I add an icon to my regular user?
[17:52] <SonikkuAmerica> Regular user what?
[17:55] <nantou> in the log in screen there is a generic icon, I want to change that to something more personal
[17:56] <nantou> also, if you go to users settings, you can see the same generic icon that id like to personalize
[18:00] <nantou> how change/add personalized user login icons
[18:01] <knome> nantou, cp ~/myavatar.jpg ~/.face
[18:01] <nantou> knome, but I havent chosen any fav icon yet, so I dont know where to paste the soon to be "myavatar.jpg" file
[18:02] <knome> nantou, i'm not sure i follow?
[18:02] <flux242> is there also an ~/.ass ?
[18:03] <knome> flux242, that kind of jokes/attitude isn't needed. please stop.
[18:03] <nantou> knome, ok, how or where do I see myavatar? cause I dont know if I have one
[18:03] <knome> nantou, just copy any file you want to be your avatar to ~/.face
[18:04] <nantou> ok, noob questions: I dont see any .face directory in my home dir
[18:04] <nantou> or in filesystem
[18:06] <nantou> ~ = home dir?
[18:06] <knome> nantou, yes.
[18:06] <knome> nantou, and you don't necessarily have a .face file. if you don't, create it.
[18:07] <nantou> knome, ok, so I have to choose any pic I like, rename it .face in my home dir
[18:07] <knome> nantou, exactly.
[18:07] <nantou> or, also, rename it to myavatar.jpg and copy it with the command you provided, but I fail to see why this would be an advantage
[18:09] <nantou> sweet!! thanks knome
[18:09] <knome> you don't have to rename it to myavatar.jpg first
[18:09] <knome> np.
[18:17] <rdp1976> hello
[18:17] <rdp1976> I installed Xubuntu on my Dell XPS 13 ultrabook and am connecting my external monitor via a minidisplay port DP1
[18:17] <rdp1976> the external monitor should have resolution 1920 x 1280
[18:18] <rdp1976> sorry, 1920 x 1080
[18:18] <rdp1976> unfortunately max resolution available is 1024 x 768
[18:18] <rdp1976> tried using xrandr to set 1920 but it doesnt work
[18:19] <rdp1976> any tips?
[18:20] <flux242> rdp1976: install xfce 4.12 ppa to get dual monitor settings and tell me it works
[18:23] <rdp1976> how do I install xfce 4.12?
[18:23] <rdp1976> what is ppa?
[18:24] <rdp1976> sorry, I've been away from linux for a few years, bit of a newbie at the moment
[18:25] <knome> rdp1976, i would look at drivers for your GPU before jumping to PPA's
[18:27] <knome> !binarydriver | rdp1976
[18:43] <rdp1972> back again
[18:43] <rdp1972> This link was posted before regarding my problem of low resolution on external monitor
[18:43] <rdp1972> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto
[18:43] <rdp1972> Doesn't help much
[18:44] <rdp1972> I installed Xubuntu 13.04 ... there is no /etc/X11/xorg.conf file
[18:44] <rdp1972> I generated one, but have no idea what I'm supposed to do with that file to get 1920x1080 on my external monitor
[18:44] <knome> !xorg
[18:44] <knome> have you looked at that page?
[18:52] <rdp1972> Yes, most definitely
[18:52] <rdp1972> I've looked at that page
[18:53] <rdp1972> I have a thread that has been on going for days now that shows what I've TRIED with xrandr so far
[18:53] <rdp1972> sorry, I should have posted that first
[18:53] <rdp1972> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2161010
[18:53] <rdp1972> see what I've tried in there
[18:53] <rdp1972> I feel like this should be a simple fix, just getting information on what to do is proving to be very difficult
[18:54] <rdp1972> FYI, I am on Xubuntu 13.04
[20:16] <Peyam> Hej
[20:16] <Peyam> Anybody knows how to show the GPU's temperature in conky
[20:16] <Peyam> ?
[20:21] <baizon> Peyam: which graphics card vendor?
[20:21] <Peyam> baizon: AMD radeon Hd 9800
[20:21] <Peyam> 6800
[20:23] <baizon> Peyam: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1566126
[20:25] <Peyam> baizon: aticonfig  : sommand not found
[20:25] <Peyam> c
[20:25] <baizon> Peyam: are you using the open source drivers?
[20:25] <Peyam> yes
[20:25] <Peyam> not the Ati one
[20:26] <baizon> Peyam: http://askubuntu.com/questions/34449/how-to-see-the-video-card-temperature-nvidia-ati-intel
[20:26] <Peyam> I'm using AMD
[20:28] <baizon> Peyam: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radeon
[20:28] <Peyam> so what?
[20:28] <baizon> amd = ati
[20:28] <Peyam> yes I know
[20:29] <Peyam> but the settingt in last link just configurate conky for nvidia temperature
[20:29] <baizon> the last link explains how to do it with lm-sensors
[20:29] <Peyam> I have lm-sensors installed
[20:29] <Peyam> I don't know the code to display the temp
[20:30] <baizon> Peyam: the second code line there is it
[20:31] <baizon> Now, to show the temperatures, type:
[20:31] <baizon>  sensors
[20:31] <Peyam> yes
[20:32] <Peyam> Sir I want to show inin my conky
[20:32] <Peyam> I know I can use sensors to show the temperature
[20:33] <baizon> Peyam: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1246525
[20:33] <Peyam> seen it sir
[20:33] <Peyam> not helping
[20:35] <baizon> Peyam: well you can read the temp with sensors and then grep the information you need
[20:36] <Peyam> emp GPU:${alignr}${execi 120 sensors | grep 'temp1' | awk '{print $3}' | cut -c2-3}°C
[20:36] <Peyam> this code doesn't show anything
[20:37] <baizon> Peyam: what output do you get from sensors?
[20:37] <Peyam> nothing
[20:37] <Peyam> but in terminal
[20:37] <Peyam> http://paste.ubuntu.com/5872155/
[20:38] <baizon> Peyam: there you go
[20:38] <Peyam> I need the temperature in my conky
[20:38] <Peyam> do you even know what Conky is=?
[20:38] <Peyam> don't waste my time sir
[20:39] <bekks> $3 is wrong.
[20:39] <baizon> Peyam: now post this: ${alignr}${execi 120 sensors | grep 'temp1' | awk '{print $3}'
[20:40] <baizon> nice, and we have a solution :)
[20:40] <Peyam> not working
[20:40] <baizon> Peyam: like bekks just said, $3 is wrong
[20:41] <bekks> And grep is useless there ;)
[20:41] <Peyam> so what should be the code
[20:41] <Peyam> the code baizon gave me doesn't work
[20:42] <baizon> Peyam: i tried to debug
[20:42] <bekks> ${alignr}${execi 120 sensors | awk '/temp1/ {print $2}'
[20:42] <baizon> i didnt brought the solution
[20:42] <Peyam> bekks: you dont' close the { , why is that?
[20:42] <bekks> Because I forgot it :)
[20:43] <Peyam> great thank you :)

[21:40] <xubuntu589> this is not an active irc channel...
[21:40] <xubuntu589> xD
[21:41] <knome> umm, and you base that on all of your experience of 3 minutes on the channel?
[21:41] <xubuntu589> 5
[21:41] <xubuntu589> almost 5

[21:42] <xubuntu589> anyone have an amd laptop?
[21:42] <knome> why not ask the real question?
[21:52] <hylian> I completely wiped my system and re-installed xubuntu 12.04 lts 64 bit today. With a couple of automated scripts I wrote some timer ago, everything is upgraded, all my software is installed and all my settings the way i like them in just over an hour. Xubnutu installed in 20 minutes before all my extras. I love it!
