[00:18] <sam896> Hello.  So I just switched from Ubuntu to xubuntu.  Same hardware.  Same setup, just a different DE.  I am noticing  that xfce is very sensitive to disk activity.  Video's are skipping around where they used to not to under the same conditions.  Any ideas?
[00:22] <SunStar> install smartmontools
[00:22] <SunStar> sounds like ur hard drive is pre-fail
[00:23] <SunStar> xfce runs fast on everything no matter how old or new. when its not, 90% of the time thats a hard drive issue.
[00:28] <sam896> SunStar: But it works fine in gnome fine.  I even went back on a live cd and the issue is gone.
[00:29] <SunStar> bad install iso
[00:29] <sam896> I know it doesn't sound likely but in this case there's something with the cubuntu install that's causing the issue. I did a smart test and the drive is fine.  I could do the manufacturer's diagnostics.
[00:29] <sam896> I did the check before I installed.
[00:29] <SunStar> go with what works. no one will believe me but i have an 11 year old laptop that runs faster on KDE than XFCE
[00:30] <sam896> It's fairly new hardware.  It's not old or anything
[00:31] <SunStar> WHAT VIDEO DRIVER ARE YOU RUNNING?
[00:31] <SunStar> oops
[00:31] <sam896> same ones. I just install nvidia-current and nvidia-settings
[00:32] <SunStar> x.org driver is a bit choppy with video but i've had less issues with it than amd/nvidia proprietary
[00:34] <sam896> Do you think that would really matter though?  I mean the installs are the same, only thing that differs is xubuntu-desktop instead of ubuntu-desktop
[00:38] <SunStar> well you dont need to install xubuntu to use xfce: http://linuxg.net/how-to-install-xfce-4-10-on-ubuntu-13-04-12-10-12-04-and-linux-mint-15-14-13/
[00:38] <SunStar> just use what works and try installing xfce
[00:39] <slooksterpsv> my computer keeps just shutting down when I'm in Xubuntu usually when watching a youtube video or have multiple programs going; I was thinking it was overheating but now I'm not sure
[00:40] <SunStar> http://www.techdrivein.com/2013/06/monitor-cpu-temperatures-ubuntu1304-xsensors.html
[00:42] <sam896> SunStar: There are reasons I don't want to use plain Ubuntu.  I like xfce.  Just with these disk access issues
[00:49] <SunStar> well there is also Ubuntu Studio you could give a whirl or you can stick around / check back / check in with the forums
[00:50] <SunStar> http://ubuntustudio.org/
[00:50] <shawnb> ok so I ran powertop --calibrate; I have xsensors running in the background. it says my acpitz ranges from 67c to 99c
[00:54] <shawnb> sorry got booted for a sec
[00:55] <shawnb> yeah it jumps up just when using terminal to like 102c ouch
[01:21] <xubuntu255> spanis?
[01:21] <xubuntu255> spanish?
[01:21] <xubuntu255> hello
[01:22] <shawnb> unfortunately I don't know spanish
[01:55] <broadcomsux> can some 1 explain the offline install instructions for the b43-lpphy to me?   they are far too vague and i don't understand what they are really asking me to do. i have installed b43-fwcutter and downloaded broadcom-wl-5.10.56.27.3_mipsel.tar.bz2  ( https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx )
[06:19] <Gilligan94> Hi, anyone know what xubuntu's plans are with regards to mir?
[06:20] <holstein> !mir
[06:20] <Gilligan94> thanks, holstein. but will xubuntu be adopting it?

[18:24] <xubuntu554> Hi guys! I got a question concerning installing from archive

[18:25] <xubuntu554> how can I get xubuntu to install this and all its dependencies?
[18:38] <koegs> xubuntu554: which version of xubuntu do you have?

[21:03] <xubuntu605> eh hello
[21:04] <xubuntu605> I want to make a dual boot with windows 7 and xubuntu 12.10
[21:04] <xubuntu605> I have already installed windows 7. Now I am installing xubuntu, and
[21:05] <xubuntu605> chose the option to install together the windows, but the installer never asked me for the size of partitions.
[21:05] <xubuntu605> what can I do?
[21:06] <xubuntu605> goodbye suckers
[21:31] <drc> sucker?  I'm not the one trying to dual boot windows.
[21:31] <drc> and failing
[21:31] <knome> drc, please, we don't need such comments.
[21:31] <drc> ok
[21:31] <knome> drc, recheck the attitude.
[21:34] <drc> yup, it's there...and that's the reason I don't hang here much.
