| doc|home | hello, I'm getting this one my second screen and wondering if anyone can help: http://www.skynet.ie/~doc/example.jpg. My xorg is here: http://pastebin.com/jeM8RTdL | 03:08 |
|---|---|---|
| holstein | doc|home: i would need to troubleshoot.. try diffrent monitors, and different drivers.. xorg changes | 03:24 |
| doc|home | holstein: I used to have a 1680x1050 monitor on there and it worked fine | 03:24 |
| doc|home | I've tried a couple of different nvidia drivers and same result for both | 03:24 |
| doc|home | and a couple of different xorg changes, including edid data | 03:25 |
| doc|home | with no change | 03:25 |
| holstein | doc|home: sometimes, i fire up a knoppix live CD and see what i can do.. and save the xorg.conf | 03:25 |
| Unit193 | I'd just assume arandr doesn't help either? | 03:25 |
| doc|home | hmmm, ok, can keep that as a last resort | 03:25 |
| doc|home | Unit193: what would I do with it? | 03:26 |
| holstein | doc|home: try setting your settings with it | 03:26 |
| holstein | also, is it a known good monitor? | 03:26 |
| doc|home | holstein: this monitor was used with no problems with a laptop | 03:27 |
| doc|home | what do I do with arandr? | 03:27 |
| holstein | doc|home: that could be rhetorical.. unless you have not recently seen the monitor being used.. because, if you have seen it being used recently, you can confirm it is functioning properly | 03:28 |
| doc|home | actually. running arandr now, everything looks ok there | 03:28 |
| holstein | doc|home: open arandr, and configure the dual setup.. try mirroring... try *anything* | 03:28 |
| doc|home | holstein: I have | 03:28 |
| doc|home | ok, will try mirroring | 03:28 |
| doc|home | inverting however? a terrible idea. Am typing upside down now :D | 03:29 |
| Unit193 | (Fun to set on others computers.) | 03:30 |
| doc|home | hehehe | 03:30 |
| doc|home | ok, so, arander modifies as expected, but still 4 way split | 03:30 |

| xubuntu172 | hello | 10:20 |
| xubuntu172 | I recently found a need to share my wired internet access via wifi. Last time I did this, a couple of years ago, I used Network Manager to create a hotspot. This was easy, as there was a big friendly button labeled "Use as Hotspot" which did just what I want. Back then, I was using Ubuntu. Now this button is missing. Any ideas? | 10:21 |

| xubuntu172 | hello ducktool | 10:25 |
| ducktool | hi there | 10:26 |
| xubuntu172 | pretty quiet here | 10:27 |
| ducktool | that because it's an official support channel | 10:28 |
| ducktool | check #xubuntu-offtopic , you probably have more success there | 10:29 |
| xubuntu172 | aha. i'll go back to listening. | 10:29 |

| freedomrun | hello | 10:48 |
| lderan | hello freedomrun, are you in need of some help? :) | 10:49 |
| freedomrun | yes lderan .. | 10:49 |
| lderan | !ask | 10:50 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 10:50 |
| freedomrun | I`m trying to make script (I guess if no other solution is found) to speed up menu loading for 1st time after reboot .. and xfce-docs are pointing here: https://developer.gnome.org/gtk2/2.24/gtk-update-icon-cache.html | 10:50 |
| freedomrun | not shure how to load icon-theme.cache file ... maybe using cron or just delay in script to load file 5minutes after loading of desktop so the whole xfce loading experience at start doesn`t suffer | 10:53 |
| baizon | freedomrun: yes, and your question? | 10:55 |
| freedomrun | well my question is based on that, but to simplify: "How to load icon-theme.cache file in memory?" | 10:56 |
| freedomrun | exept clicking on menu button | 10:56 |
| baizon | freedomrun: have you tried to run the gtk-update-icon-cache? | 10:57 |
| baizon | does it help? | 10:57 |
| baizon | if yes, then write a simple shell script which starts after the system hast started up :) | 10:57 |
| freedomrun | yes I did included that in testing and it didn`t help | 10:57 |
| baizon | freedomrun: are you sure you did it right? | 10:59 |
| baizon | like this: gtk-update-icon-cache -f -t ~/.icons/<theme_name> | 10:59 |
| freedomrun | after 1 click on menu button there was high HD activity (loading icons) and menu showing was slow (as manny GUI apps are installed on this machine) .. once menu was loaded everything runs pretty fast | 11:00 |
| freedomrun | baizon, thnx .. I`ve made an error in theme path .. thnx for poiting out | 11:00 |
| baizon | freedomrun: np | 11:00 |
| lderan | \o/ | 11:00 |
| freedomrun | so universal solution looks pretty impossible | 11:01 |
| freedomrun | every user need to do that for the teme he/she is using | 11:01 |
| freedomrun | some variable in script could come handy | 11:01 |
| freedomrun | hmm | 11:02 |

| zipy | does someone know where i can find the program "disk" from ubuntu in xubuntu? | 13:21 |
| TheSheep | !info disk | 13:22 |
| ubottu | Package disk does not exist in raring | 13:22 |
| TheSheep | zipy: there is no such program | 13:23 |
| TheSheep | zipy: in ubuntu | 13:23 |
| zipy | hmm i thought disks was the english name of it | 13:23 |
| TheSheep | zipy: you need to be more precise. What are you trying to do? | 13:24 |
| zipy | i found it its gnome-disk-utility | 13:24 |
| zipy | ehm i use it for smart check etc | 13:24 |
| TheSheep | cool | 13:25 |
| zipy | quick format crypted hdds | 13:25 |
| zipy | its faster then to do it with terminal ^^ | 13:25 |
| zipy | just the lazy way :d | 13:26 |
| zipy | i got xubuntu installed on my eee 1101ha, i got the fn keys to work, but somehow nothing happens when i try to adjust brightness.. i only see the symbols with the status bar going up or down but the brightness doesnt really change | 13:28 |
| zipy | does someone know how to fix it? | 13:28 |

| Chaser | Hi, how to set a keyboard shortcut key to open a new tab in the terminal window. cntrl+shift+t used to work. But I can't figure out how to reset it. | 18:41 |
| Chaser | File->Open Tab no longer shows corresponding keyboard shortcut beside it. | 18:43 |
| krytarik | Chaser: In Xfce4 Terminal, "Edit -> Preferences -> Shortcuts". | 18:43 |
| Chaser | krytarik, thanks but Preferences doesn't list shortcuts tab. I only see General Appearance Colors Compatibility and Advanced. | 18:44 |
| elfy | settings - keyboard - shortcuts | 18:45 |
| Chaser | I am on Ubuntu 13.04. | 18:45 |
| krytarik | Chaser: Then you are using Gnome Terminal. | 18:45 |
| Sysi | nope, it isn't present in 13.04 anymore | 18:46 |
| Chaser | yup thats seems to be the case. | 18:46 |
| Sysi | http://docs.xfce.org/faq | 18:46 |
| krytarik | Well, my fault then, didn't check it on Xubuntu 13.04 yet. | 18:47 |
| Chaser | elfy, I cant see it under keyboard - application shortcuts as well :( | 18:49 |
| Chaser | Sysi, cool - let me try that. | 18:50 |
| Chaser | Sysi, Thanks ! It worked ! Cool way to set keyboard shortcuts. I must have reset it accidentally as it used to work for a while. | 18:51 |
| elfy | Chaser: not sure why you're not seeing it there, but nvm now :) | 18:54 |
| dmj | hi, was wondering if anyone could speak to the stability of xubuntu on a macbook pro | 19:02 |
| dmj | I know ubuntu 13.04 has many drivers ootb, does xubuntu use these as well? | 19:02 |
| krytarik | dmj: Well, it's based on Ubuntu, so yes. | 19:03 |
| dmj | krytarik: So is the only difference the use of xfce over gnome? | 19:04 |
| krytarik | Yeah, quite. | 19:04 |
| dmj | krytarik: exactly what I needed to know, thank you | 19:04 |
| krytarik | Welcome. | 19:04 |
| dmj | krytarik: installing arch on my retina was quite a chore. Not too stable for me. Hoping Xubuntu will be more user-friendly and slimmer than ubuntu. | 19:05 |
| xubuntu666 | hi, what's the best way to run xubuntu from usb drive without installing; I downloaded the image. | 19:37 |
| recon_lap | xubuntu666: you just don't install ? not sure what the boot sequence looks like atm though. | 19:53 |
| recon_lap | xubuntu666: these instructions my help http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-ubuntu | 19:54 |
