kingnick42I have a slight problem with Chrome, and I need to clean all the cache and everything. Already used Chrome's built in one, didn't fix my problem. Anyone know some good commands/programs that'll clear out all the config files relating to Chrome?01:25
Unit193Look in ~/.config/chrome and ~/.cache/chrome  (it's that way for chromium, so guessing about the same.)01:27
kingnick42Unit193, thanks.01:28
kingnick42Unit193, that fixed it.01:32
Unit193Boom.01:32
kingnick42By the way, it was ~/home/.01:33
kingnick42not ~/.01:33
kingnick42Thanks01:33
Unit193~/ indicates /home/user/01:33

souliaqProblem burning Xubuntu 12.04.2 image03:07
cfhowlettsouliaq, usb is better than cdrom03:07
souliaqwhat's the name of the software to put the ISO into a USB?03:08
cfhowlettsouliaq, startup disk creator is on ubuntu.  unetbootin also is good03:08
Unit193In linux, dd, unetbootin, etc; in windows LinuxLiveUSB03:08
Unit193grml2usb I'd guess would work as well.03:09
souliaqok, thanks03:12
kingnick42Anyone know how to get the theme for Xubuntu 13.04 on 12.04?03:14
kingnick42Found it :D03:19
surface-verminwhat's better to use irc in pidgin or Xchat ?04:34
holsteinsurface-vermin: "better" is a matter of opinion and use case.. use what works for you.. both access the same channels and servers04:34
surface-verminCan I Ask What You use ?04:35
Unit193I would say xchat has less issues with it, but I personally use irssi, as does he.04:38
holsteinyup... irssi.. but i would prefer xchat to pidgin.. unless i wanted to use pidgin04:40
surface-verminI Was Just Asking Cause Default Apps In Xubuntu Are Pidgin And Xchat, Also This Being The Xubuntu Channel Silly Me Thought It Be Either or.04:40
Unit193If you ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots, it generally says xchat, but that's a simple voting system. :P04:41
holsteinsurface-vermin: start with xchat, and move on if you dont like it04:42
surface-verminI Have Heard Of irssi Once Or Twice And Thought It Was For More Of The Advanced Users Of IRC , So I Never Really used It Before.04:45
surface-verminHonestly Never Really Used IRC That Much04:46
holsteinsurface-vermin: i suggest xchat.. you should try xchat.. i think xchat is "best" for you.. and i really think you would be fine using xchat..04:46
surface-verminThanks I'll Give That Shot !04:47
holsteinsurface-vermin: sudo apt-get install xchat04:48

surface-verminMy Real Concern Is Also ia-32lids To Run Games From Desura, Some Are Failing To Run And I have Installed The Package Before but On A Debian. Should I Just dpkg --add-architecture i386 To install The Dependencies?  Some Forums Suggest ia32-libs As The Go To But Last I Heard It's Best Not T Install ia32-libs ?04:55
holsteinsurface-vermin: is it a 32bit app? in a 64bit OS?04:56
surface-verminYeah04:57
holsteinsurface-vermin: why? they dont make a 64bit version?04:57

ubottuValve have officially announced that they are developing Steam and are working with !ubuntu during their development, see http://blogs.valvesoftware.com/linux/steamd-penguins/ for further details, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Valve for install instructions, you can also join #ubuntu-steam for discussion.04:58
holsteinsurface-vermin: otherwise, you ask desura for support04:58
surface-verminThanks I'll Try ia32-libs  And Update , Thanks For The Help Man05:00
surface-verminCause I Once Tried To use Synaptic And install ia32-libs It Was Full Of Broken Dependencies Now The Link Say's apt-get install ia32-libs-multiarch Although This Was On Debian Jessie Which Has No Place, And Now Works ! So Thanks For The Link And Valuable insight !05:07
xubuntu574Hello, I was hoping to get some help. I just installed xubuntu on a PC yesterday and everything was fine. Today, when I turn the PC on, it starts off on a login screen in terminal, and I can't get it back to the desktop by hitting ctl alt f7. Any ideas?13:03
bullgard4xubuntu574: Yes. Please have a look in /var/log/syslog to find out the cause.13:16
bekksxubuntu574: Check the free disk space first.13:17
Pres-GasAnyone using github and have they ever ran into the strange glyphs in xubuntu?15:40
Pres-GasIt may not be specific to xubu, but not sure how to fix it.15:40
Pres-GasI had a version of xubu that did not display these glyphs but the regular icons/glyphs that github is supposed to display.  I'm just not sure if I am missing a font package or what.15:41
souliaqI want to put the "panel taskbar" in the right (I'm already put it vertical but is in the left side).21:44
redderhsHi, I am having an issue with Compiz where it keeps setting my refresh rate to 50 under Composite. ( http://askubuntu.com/questions/292810/compiz-refresh-rate-keeps-resetting-itself-to-50 ) I believe I found a temporary solution but do not know how to make a shell script executable.22:07
knomeredderhs, in terminal, chmod +x scriptname22:13
redderhsThank knome, and i can store the script anywhere when adding to startup?22:13
knomeyes22:14
redderhsbrb going to test22:15
peyamif you guys have to choose between ARch and xubuntu, which one would you choose?22:15
knomepeyam, you are on the xubuntu channel. what do you expect? also, please do not take "polls"22:16
peyamknome, why am I not allowed to take "polls"22:16
knome!poll | peyam22:16
ubottupeyam: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors.22:16
peyamI bet not all of you guys are running xubuntu22:17
peyamso what? linux is linux22:17
knomepeyam, this is not the channel to discuss that.22:17
peyamknome, you are difficult you know that? you are agaist me almost all the time22:17
knomepeyam, please note that this is the xubuntu support channel. the questions you asked are not suitable for this channel.22:18
peyamyou should visit #ubuntu-se and see how friendly they are22:19
knomepeyam, if you want to discuss this further, please join #ubuntu-ops. if not, do you have a support question?22:20

Unit193redderhs: Anything in ~/.xsession-errors?22:27
knomeredderhs, what is it what you are trying to do with the script?22:27
redderhshttps://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/1027868 - I am trying to created a script that will force Compiz ccsm to set composite to 60hz22:27
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1027868 in Compiz "Changing "Composite > Detect Refresh Rate" is ignored initially" [High,Confirmed]22:27
redderhsThe script I am trying to use is in the comments.22:27
redderhsUnit193: I will throw a pastebin of xsessionerrors22:28
redderhshttp://pastebin.com/NnrBXkvj22:29

ntzrmtthihu777hallo, running 13.04 here, any advice as to a good native team veiwer type application?23:49
Unit193How about VNC?23:50
ntzrmtthihu777Unit193: I'm not worried about me, but how easy is it for a n00b to set it up?23:51
Unit193Client or server?23:51
ntzrmtthihu777server, likely. I've always team-veiwed to them, not the other way around XD23:51
kingnick42ntzrmtthihu777, can't you just use teamviewer?23:55
kingnick42https://www.teamviewer.com/en/help/363-How-do-I-install-TeamViewer-on-my-Linux-distribution.aspx23:55
