| c2tarun | Hi friends, I just created a swap partition so that I can hibernate my laptop. Do I have to enable this swap partition somehow or linux will automatically detect it? http://www.zimagez.com/zimage/screenshot-friday30august2013-072757ist.php | 01:59 |

| xubuntu115 | wow | 02:01 |
| Unit193 | c2tarun: I have something in my fstab for it. | 02:03 |
| Unit193 | !fstab | 02:03 |
| ubottu | The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 02:03 |
| Silver_Arrow | there's a window that's way too tall to see the bottom, is there a way to zoom out on the window, or let me drag it up past the upper panel? | 02:03 |
| Unit193 | Silver_Arrow: Alt+drag | 02:04 |
| Silver_Arrow | erm, I have all my alt based shortcuts disable because of program conflicts | 02:04 |
| Silver_Arrow | aha, found it in the settings manager, bound super key to it | 02:07 |
| Silver_Arrow | the <Lower Window> option removes mouse focus, right? | 02:15 |

| Silver_Arrow | is there a way to make the kernel/joystick drive ignore axis 23, 24, and 25? | 03:00 |
| Silver_Arrow | I can't seem to do anything from jstest-gtk to make a game ignore them or not sense anything on them | 03:01 |

| xubuntu919 | I'm in a chatroom | 03:27 |
| map | hyes | 03:28 |
| nerdtron | xubuntu919 chatroom support for xubuntu, not just random chat :) | 03:28 |
| xubuntu919 | Dual-booting Xubuntu along side Windows 7, hope it is better than Ubuntu (used with GNOME Shell) | 03:28 |
| xubuntu919 | Oh okay, didn't know it was support only. | 03:28 |
| nerdtron | xfce is quite good | 03:28 |
| nerdtron | oh yeah.. #xubuntu-offtopic is for random chat | 03:29 |
| map | i like xfce | 03:29 |
| map | although im struggling with everything atm ;/ fresh 13.04 install | 03:29 |
| xubuntu919 | Thanks, I just never used IRC during an installation. Very interesting. | 03:29 |
| nerdtron | map you'll get the hang of it.. if you have questions, don't hesitate to ask | 03:30 |
| map | its this pesky broadcom mate | 03:30 |
| map | i remember it being a pain when i used Ubuntu previously..and at first I had no wired connection nor wireless | 03:31 |
| nerdtron | xubuntu919 a lot og people are here, especially in the ubuntu channel where people ask for help in installation | 03:31 |
| map | now ive got a wired connection..but cant get wlan0 to work AT all | 03:31 |
| map | i installed linux-firmware-nonfree modprobe b43 ..then did upgrade and after apt-get upgrade the wireless worked...rebooted and wireless woint work | 03:31 |
| map | but its listed in iconfig/iconfig lspci -nnK | grep -iA2 net shos its use b43-pci-bridge driver | 03:32 |
| xubuntu919 | Since it's support, I do have a real question. When I used Ubuntu, headphones worked great, but speakers didn't (popping sound). I tried commands I found google like remove & purge then install, update atlas+pulseaudio. What site would have a guide as to what to install to get my realtek alc888 drivers installed properly? | 03:32 |
| nerdtron | how do you say it doesn't work? it doesn't show in the network manager? | 03:32 |
| map | ah sorry - network manager when i clic it on the top of my screen well ya it knos theres a wireless card | 03:33 |
| map | but no wireless networks shown | 03:33 |
| map | i made a post about it - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2171279&p=12773653#post12773653 | 03:33 |
| nerdtron | xubuntu919 modprobe snd_hda_codec_realtek | 03:34 |
| nerdtron | if you are using 13.04, it should be detected and used by default | 03:35 |

| Unit193 | Saw the wikipage for it? I don't find them that much of a pain, though. | 03:36 |

| Monkeytoe | is there a way I can have apt-get return my computer to how it was just after I installed it? | 05:51 |
| Monkeytoe | basically want it to return everything back to the vanilla xubuntu 13.04 install I did | 05:51 |
| nikolam | Monkeytoe, Using BTRFS as file system for the installation? Ubuntu makes snapshots during update, so you can back to previous state of the system. (ZFS also has that, but is off-kernel and tools don't do that automatically). | 05:57 |
| Monkeytoe | ah I did encrypted lvm :( | 06:00 |
| nikolam | lvm can make snapshots? also, I dont'know if BTRFS can do encryption. Possibly if made on top of LVM. | 06:01 |
| nikolam | Maybe you can add another GRUB item, then copy fresh install from elsewhere and then boot it. | 06:02 |
| machina | Hi! How do I boot xubuntu on console-only mode? I'm about to make a "home server" from my old machine without a display, so I don't need X at all | 06:04 |
| map | damn still not got my stupid wifi wrking | 06:05 |
| machina | xubuntu 12.10, that is | 06:05 |
| nikolam | machina, hm. like with disabling lightdm? | 06:06 |
| machina | nikolam: yes, and all things relating | 06:07 |
| nikolam | there were 'alternate' install of xubuntu before, not anymore, that provided text-only install. I think it is up to the latest LTS, after that it is not released anymore. but one can upgrade from it... | 06:07 |
| machina | yes, the problem is that I have everything confed with my current installation and I'd rather not replace it with anything else to save the bother :) | 06:08 |
| nikolam | I used that alternate-update method to install xubuntu on my eeepc/512MB RAM | 06:08 |
| nikolam | machina, maybe just remove packages of desktop environment, you don't need. Or better, just disable starting GUI on boot. | 06:09 |
| machina | nikolam: that's my question, actually: How do I disable starting GUI on boot? | 06:10 |
| machina | ah, found it with almighty google (duh) | 06:11 |
| machina | duh | 06:12 |
| nikolam | machina, what, /etc/init/lightdm.conf ? | 06:13 |
| nikolam | and, like, rcconf edits it | 06:14 |
| nikolam | or sudo update-rc.d -f lightdm remove (untested) | 06:14 |
| nikolam | I use almighty ixquick or duckduckgo , encrypted, private.. they say ;p | 06:15 |
| machina | nikolam: Internet suggested simply putting "text" on grub commandline, if that works I'll start removing packages :) | 06:15 |
| nikolam | machina, or let them be there (packages) for you to be able to do ssh -X to a machine and run GUI app if needed. It is not using RAM if not running. | 06:16 |
| nikolam | machina, it is GRUB2, btw... | 06:17 |
| machina | nice, haven't actually thought about that | 06:17 |
| machina | I have very little experience with this whole 'remote desktop' thing | 06:18 |
| nikolam | and who knows, when you will need to run startc for local session ;p | 06:18 |
| nikolam | startx | 06:18 |
| nikolam | ssh -X just redirect ports, and application on remote computer is using local X server for displaying and interaction. That os what X is all about. :) | 06:19 |
| nikolam | is | 06:19 |
| machina | intresting, I got to check that out | 06:19 |
| nikolam | it is by design, from ages | 06:20 |
| nikolam | it is also saying, there is /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LightDM | 06:22 |

| xubuntu262 | Hello ? | 13:15 |
| bgardner | xubuntu262: Hello | 13:16 |
| GridCube | !hi | xubuntu262 | 13:17 |
| ubottu | xubuntu262: Hi!, Welcome to #xubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines. Enjoy your stay! | 13:17 |
| xubuntu262 | Hello, i'm having troubble with a samsung chomebook ,After installing xubuntu on it, i am unable to make the speakers work. Tried to remose pulse audio, tried many things : no mp3 to be played !! | 13:18 |
| xubuntu262 | Would you have an idea ? | 13:18 |
| GridCube | have you installed the restricted extras? | 13:19 |
| GridCube | if not then you dont have codecs for mp3 | 13:19 |
| xubuntu262 | I'm afraid not : installing ubuntu has been made with a global script. May I use a apt-get install extras maybe ? | 13:20 |
| GridCube | sudo apt-get install xubuntu-restricted-extras | 13:21 |
| xubuntu262 | many thanks, try right now. | 13:22 |
| xubuntu262 | ....processing... | 13:24 |
| xubuntu262 | Done. I am a real newbie : sould i reboot after each apt-get ? | 13:26 |
| GridCube | not really unless it asks you too | 13:26 |
| xubuntu262 | Thank you. So, no reboot asked, speakers level are high, alsamixer is at high levet too. When I launch audacious (or any mp3 player) still no sound at all. Speakers are ok with chrome Os....really coming fool !! | 13:28 |
| xubuntu262 | BTW, headphones no longer work too....Anyone may have andea ? i | 13:32 |
| xubuntu262 | Sorry : anyone may have an idea ? | 13:32 |
| GridCube | xubuntu262, check in pavucontrol that the proper output is being used for audio | 13:37 |
| GridCube | see in the last tab that you are using a correct configuration as well. | 13:37 |
| GridCube | check that no output is being muted, check that too against alsamixer | 13:37 |
| xubuntu262 | Ok these has been done. Output is set to "speakers" and configuration is "Analog stereo output". None seems mute. I return to alsamixer, thank you for helping. | 13:40 |
| holstein | xubuntu262: try toggling mutes.. the function key ones.. the ones in the control.. several different ways | 13:40 |
| newbie834 | hi to all | 13:43 |
| xubuntu262 | Hello. Alsamixer still at the highest level, and no mute controls.....is it possible to try to play an mp3 directly from terminal, just to be sure ? | 13:44 |
| newbie834 | i would like to ask your help in the following issue: in ubuntu desktop the sleep mode hotkey on the keyboard works, in xubuntu it doesn't. where to find the problem? | 13:44 |
| holstein | xubuntu262: did you toggle *all* mutes? | 13:44 |
| xubuntu262 | I think so, some of them seemes unreachable. "headphone" " speaker" "line in" "lineout " ADCL" ...but I need to go to the eye's doctor : didn't saw others controls on the right !! Sorry, i try now to put them at high level, or to make them work. | 13:48 |
| holstein | xubuntu262: dont think.. confirm. test *every* mute possiblity and toggle it | 13:49 |
| xubuntu262 | Ok let's go. | 13:49 |
| holstein | xubuntu262: i have had that *same* issue.. and when i toggled the function key, it muted, and i had to go to the software mise to unmute.. even though it showed it should be playing | 13:49 |
| holstein | xubuntu262: you cannot trust the labels in alsamixer.. your card vendor likely didnt supply that information to the alsa team | 13:50 |
| xubuntu262 | Thanks all. So : i confirm that every "toggleable" cursor is at the highiest level . MP3 player shows that the song plays. It seems that my installation is probably wrong... | 13:55 |
| xubuntu262 | Apologize for ma poor english : i'm french, I have an excuse ! | 13:56 |
| holstein | xubuntu262: i never said highest level | 14:04 |
| holstein | xubuntu262: i said toggle *all* mutes.. on and off.. | 14:04 |
| xubuntu262 | Well I probably not doing correctly what you say : i see for exemple "headphones". Using "enter" allows to move the cursor up and down, from z ero to max. In fact, there is no "mute" position except move the cursor to zerov : tht's what i call "no mute". Something else to do ? | 14:13 |
| xubuntu262 | to zero : that's what I call "no mute". | 14:13 |
| xubuntu262 | BTW card is DAISY-I2S | 14:14 |
| holstein | xubuntu262: correct.. i am talking literally about mute | 14:16 |
| holstein | xubuntu262: the function key mute .. the mute i alsamixer.. the must in pavucontrol | 14:16 |
| holstein | *not* other controls.. just mute.. since it *is* a known bug.. and an issue i have seen before | 14:17 |
| xubuntu262 | Yes, I saw it cos the speaker icon on the desktop looses its blue "sounds" in front of it, when i turn "mute " on in the pavucontrol. Think i will try to find a "patch" or correcting package.... | 14:23 |
| holstein | xubuntu262: try the live CD.. then, you'l be able to determine if its software or just your config | 14:24 |
| holstein | if you have the same alsa and kernel versions as the live CD, and the live CD works, and your install doesnt.. you dont need a patch. you have something misconfigured | 14:24 |
| holstein | xubuntu262: be sure you try as another user | 14:24 |
| xubuntu262 | Ok. Anayway, i don't have a liveCD, I used a script to load xubuntu directely from goo.gl/r9synd . So, i will open another session, and try to compare....Anyway, thank you for the help, i'm sure now to have a "misconfigured" somewhere. May come tomorrow on the site to say i found....Thanks a lot, and have a good"end-of-day" ! | 14:31 |
| holstein | xubuntu262: you used a script to do what? | 14:32 |
| holstein | xubuntu262: could be, you are not using xubuntu at all.. if you didnt get xubuntu | 14:32 |
| xubuntu262 | I used a script, like "crouton" but much better, to directly install xubuntu from the Net. | 14:34 |
| xubuntu262 | Here is it : curl -L -O http://goo.gl/s9ryd; sudo bash s9ryd | 14:37 |
| holstein | xubuntu262: that link is not hot anymore.. i cannot confirm you installed xubuntu at all | 14:37 |
| xubuntu262 | This installs ubuntu to chromebooks.... | 14:37 |
| xubuntu262 | huh : used it tree days ago...and yesterday... | 14:38 |
| xubuntu262 | See it ? | 14:39 |
| xubuntu262 | Here's the url ;http://chromeos-cr48.blogspot.fr/2013/05/chrubuntu-one-script-to-rule-them-all_31.html | 14:39 |
| valeriy__ | hi, I have a next problem. Using Nemo File manager, I'm able to open a samba folder, but how can I choose files to open directly from application. Like in audacious, open files that are on samba folder? | 14:55 |
| Distrot | Hi. Can't seem to mount my ntfs drives in 13.04. Installed Xubuntu after reformatting a Windows Server 2012 partition and it won't seem to mount. I'm not sure why the drives are in "an unsafe state" but I just want to override the inaccessibility. Basically, I just need help structuring the command to remove_hiberfile. Thanks. | 15:08 |

| yeyeman | hey | 18:45 |
| knome | anybody knows where *all* the systems paper sizes are defined? i'd like to cut them down... | 18:47 |
| Unit193 | knome: /home/unit193/.gtk-custom-papers is the file for custom ones, but searching for locate gtk | grep pap found nothing other than that. It seems like it may be in /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libcups.so.2 ? | 19:26 |
| knome | actually, the paper sizes are defined in the .ppd file per printer (or at least that's how i was able to modify the list) | 19:30 |
| knome | but turns out i don't need that, i can just use a command to print what/how i want and not need to poke the long GUI list | 19:30 |
| Unit193 | Aha, alrighty. | 19:33 |
| hotmedal | I'm somehow banned from #ubuntu. I haven't been there in a month | 20:54 |

| Azelphur | Anyone know of a WM I can use that gives me separate workspaces per physical monitor? | 20:59 |
| w30 | Azelphur, Wouldn't that need an awfully big monitor? | 21:11 |
| Unit193 | w30: Think he means workspace 1 is on monitor 1, workspace 2 on monitor 2. | 21:11 |
| w30 | Azelphur, or good eyesight and a high resolution | 21:11 |
| w30 | Unit193, hmmm... | 21:13 |
| Azelphur | Unit193: yea, that's exactly what I mean | 21:29 |
| Azelphur | on a quad monitor setup, changing workspace on all 4 monitors is less than practical | 21:29 |
| w30 | Azelphur, you would need a sports or Broadway Play program to keep track of having a bunch of workspaces on each monitor. Maybe a spreadsheet? | 21:33 |
| Azelphur | w30: or a panel on each monitor, indicating which workspace you are on, just like normal. | 21:33 |
| Azelphur | there seems to be everything else, per-monitor window lists, per-monitor panels, why not per-monitor workspaces? :P | 21:37 |
| w30 | Azelphur, probably not many developers/programmers have 4 monitors. Some well heeled person needs to donate some monitors and video cards. | 21:38 |
| Azelphur | w30: wat, pretty much all the developers I know have piles of monitors | 21:39 |
| * w30 is less than flush with cash. | 21:40 | |
| w30 | Azelphur, they need to get busy; I see a need and so do you. *smile* | 21:42 |
| w30 | people working with a lot of text and text files, or graphics modifying would benefit greatly. | 21:45 |
| w30 | Azelphur, I wonder if those graphic designers in SGI or Disney companies using those 3 thousand dollar Mac Pro's can do that? | 21:49 |
| Azelphur | w30: dunno | 21:50 |
| Azelphur | I'm sure I remember hearing about a WM that could do it | 21:50 |
| Azelphur | I found some stuff saying gnome 3s default behaviour is to only workspace on the primary monitor, lol | 21:50 |
| r4d1x | hey, I've been getting an error with seahorse-tool, it seems I can encrypt a file once, but after that I get a GLib warning, and nothing happens. Any ideas? | 21:51 |
| knome | !offtopic | w30, Azelphur | 21:51 |
| ubottu | w30, Azelphur: #xubuntu is the Xubuntu support channel, #xubuntu-devel for discussion regarding development of Xubuntu, and #xubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 21:51 |
| Azelphur | knome: how on earth is that off topic? | 21:51 |
| w30 | CRS kicks in? :=) | 21:51 |
| knome | Azelphur, SGI, Disney or GNOME 3 are not related to xubuntu support | 21:52 |
| w30 | knome, sorry. w30 shuts up | 21:52 |
| Azelphur | knome: it's related to the question I asked about Xubuntu, try reading at least some of the conversation :) | 21:52 |
| knome | Azelphur, i did. you can move to -offtopic if you want to continue the social discussion. | 21:52 |
| * Azelphur sighs, goes to find support elsewhere | 21:53 | |
| knome | i suppose your question was answered: there is no such feature | 21:53 |
| knome | re: other WM's, i'd ask a generic linux channel, many people here use xfce pretty much exclusively and thus have little experience of other WM's | 21:54 |
| knome | Azelphur, ^ | 21:54 |
| Unit193 | Could try awesome, but don't think it does either... | 21:55 |
| Azelphur | knome: maybe so, I think we were getting somewhere, as I say, there are definitely wm's that can do it, it's all about finding which one it is, and whether it likes XFCE or not :P | 21:55 |
| knome | Azelphur, i understand, but this isn't the channel to find out (because that's not really a xubuntu support question any more, and because people here are unlikely to know the answer) | 21:56 |
| Azelphur | fair enough | 21:56 |
| knome | Azelphur, you are free to ask in -offtopic (where many of the active supporters and otherwise generally more broadly interested people hang out in) | 21:57 |
| Azelphur | It's cool, I'll ask in ubuntu-uk, they generally aren't so aggressive against slightly-offtopic :P | 21:57 |
| knome | ...they also have a much broader topic. | 21:57 |
| htmlgifted | hay all htmlgifted 12.04 xubuntu user... Nice to met u.. I hope i can find and provide help to any one and every i can... Happy labor day to u all... tty all l8ter. | 22:34 |
| knome | htmlgifted, you'll want to join #xubuntu-devel where most of the development talk in IRC for xubuntu happens | 22:35 |

| yeyeman | what does an * after a file mean in ls? | 23:27 |
| David-A | yeyeman: you mean like "ls Madonna*"? also try "ls *.mp3". * is a wildcard. it may be part of a filename pattern or a filename pattern by its own. | 23:40 |
| David-A | yeyeman: it is not "ls" that expands * and ? in filename patterns. it is the shell that expands them, and then pass all matching filenames to ls. | 23:41 |
