| xubuntu242 | I have a question, not sure if this is the right place for it. I have an ATI/AMD All-in-Wonder 2006 AGP Edition and I am trying the video input to work. I installed xatitv from the software center but when I go to run it, nothing happens, not even an error message. any sugestions? | 00:03 |
|---|---|---|
| xubuntu242 | And if this is not the right place to ask, could someone please point me to a forum that could help me? | 00:04 |
| David-A | xubuntu242: drivers and most programs are the same in ubuntu as in xubuntu. you can wait here for a while or ask in #ubuntu or in http://ubuntuforums.org | 00:06 |
| xubuntu242 | Ok thank you! | 00:07 |
| Jayneil | Hi. Hibernate does not work properly in Xubuntu 13.04 for me. The weird thing is that it works via the command line or even from the shutdown menu. But, I have configured my power settings such that my laptop will hibernate e if battery is low. The laptop even hibernates successfully but next time when I boot it, it does not remember the hibernate state. It just resumes normal boot. Any else facing this issue? Any suggestions? | 00:33 |

| ubuntustudio | Hello, I have been here in the past to ask this same question, I've been having issues with it for months and months and months now - any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Essentially when I install Ubuntu - of any sort - it successfully installs but than the Radeon graphics card driver apparently doesn't work and the screen just turns on and off after boot. WOrks great off usb. Here is my driver info: http://paste.ubuntu | 01:05 |
| ubuntustudio | .com/6053323/ - also worth noting I've tried multiple times to DL the newest driver from Radeon site and the .run opens SO slow after 3 hours it was less than 25%, needless to say I quit out of that each time.... I've tried all the drivers I was able to find... and now I am unsure of how to even have these updates effect my actual filesystem on myPC - not just the USB, as I set up a 1.4G persistence. Lastly it is worth noting | 01:05 |
| ubuntustudio | that RANDOMLY it will work after the install, meaning, the graphics driver just works, the screen does not blink on and off. THe only reason it doesn't still work is I've had to reinstall due to other issues. | 01:05 |
| decci | I am facing this issue : http://paste.ubuntu.com/6053399/ | 01:08 |
| David-A | ubuntustudio: what xubuntu version? i googled and found this guy have similar setup: http://tech.deepumohan.com/2012/04/ati-radeon-hd-6600m-graphics-card-on.html | 01:35 |
| ubuntustudio | Ubuntu or Studio 12 - 13 | 01:35 |
| ubuntustudio | I am thinking its my Hybrid Graphics - i dont know.... this is getting nuts though. I need to figure it out. THanks for the help though, man. | 01:36 |
| David-A | ubuntustudio: have you tried just enable or disable the driver(s) suggested in System Settings > Additional Drivers ? | 01:36 |
| ubuntustudio | yes, but.... i am running off usb... studio 13 installed correctly but after boot my screen just turns on and off... so how do i make changes to that...? | 01:37 |
| ubuntustudio | And that goes for the link you just sent me... looks interesting but how are the changes I make on my live usb going to effect my already installed version that wont show me the screen after boot? | 01:38 |
| David-A | ubuntustudio: if it is a fresh install the drivers in Additional Drivers used to be disabled. (i don't know now). is there an option "failsafe" you can try when logging in? or does the screen turn off before login? | 01:40 |
| ubuntustudio | right after the f2 f4 options the screen goes on and off | 01:43 |
| ubuntustudio | its REALLY been difficult as I've bought this laptop from a friend 6 months ago and put ubuntu on right off and had issues since... I dont understand why SOMETIMES it would just WORK... others the screen does this. Needless to say its not just 'worked' this go around. | 01:44 |
| David-A | ubuntustudio: right, you have to be able to login. it is not easy to manage these details from a live usb. you could edit config files on the hdd from the live usb, but that is beyond me. | 01:45 |
| ubuntustudio | what is the deal with a persistence file, that just effects the usb? | 01:46 |
| ubuntustudio | Man, I just don't know what the heck to do.... I wanna record! Heh, all I can think about is whenever it finally DOES work I stil have 9,000 other things to do to get it back and running how I'd like. | 01:47 |
| David-A | ubuntustudio: when it works, save the /var/log/Xorg.0.log somewhere. then when it fails, in the next live usb session again save the then latest Xorg.0.log. look for differences when it worked and when it didn't. | 01:48 |
| David-A | ubuntustudio: I don't know if it will help. just a thought. | 01:48 |
| ubuntustudio | yeah, WHEN... cause thats the keyword... a good 10 goes in the last few days and nothing.... | 01:49 |
| ubuntustudio | shit man.... ok well I truly appreciate the help, I am going to just try again I supose. | 01:49 |
| David-A | ubuntustudio: actually, the Xorg.0.log on the hdd would be from a faild session now, and the Xorg.0.log in the current live session from a successful session. but there are likely different configurations, so there are likely irrellevant differences. | 01:51 |

| Herr_Kriss | hey! I hope your day is going good :) | 02:03 |
| Herr_Kriss | I wonder - is it possible to install Xubuntu on one computer and then move disk to another computer? They are very different. | 02:04 |
| Herr_Kriss | I'm trying to install it and: | 02:04 |
| Herr_Kriss | 1) install fails just after hardware check | 02:04 |
| Herr_Kriss | 2) I was trying to do sudo apt-get remove ubiquity-slideshow-xubuntu | 02:05 |
| Herr_Kriss | but it froze at "building database" at 25% | 02:05 |
| Herr_Kriss | 3) I was trying to install it with polp but it randomly freezes at early start of installer or when it shows that keyboard and human logo (what's that?) | 02:06 |
| Herr_Kriss | 3 was by CD/USB, because that laptop (Thinkpad T22) doesn't support USB boot by itself | 02:07 |
| === dormito___ is now known as dormito | ||
| David-A | Herr_Kriss: iirc it should be possible if you don't install hw specific drivers. (but don't try a 64bit system on a 32bit cpu.) | 02:14 |
| Herr_Kriss | David-A: ok, thanks :) I'll give a try with Ubuntu and then switch it to Xubuntu. Well, worth trying. | 02:14 |

| xtriz | is that possible to run gala without problems in xubuntu ? | 11:22 |
| xtriz | how can i enable hotcorner ? | 11:34 |
| bgardner | xtriz: Looks like you should install brightside for hot corners. | 11:35 |
| xtriz | bgardner, ok installing it. | 11:36 |
| bgardner | xtriz: And while gala appears to work in Xubuntu, you probably won't find much support for it in this channel. | 11:36 |
| xtriz | bgardner, only basic functionality works.. | 11:37 |
| xtriz | other functions are not working. | 11:37 |
| xtriz | they just kick me from their support channel to here, from here i get kicked over there. :( | 11:37 |
| bgardner | xtriz: Well, gala isn't part of Xubuntu, so there isn't much I can say. I found this, as I'm sure you already did: http://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1124446-using-gala-compositing-in-xubuntu-1210/ | 11:39 |
| bgardner | xtriz: But again, it's not part of Xubuntu so we can't support it here. | 11:40 |
| xtriz | ok bgardner i can understand. | 11:40 |
| bgardner | xtriz: Aside from wishing you luck :) | 11:40 |
| xtriz | yeah i have read that thread. | 11:40 |
| xtriz | bgardner, thank you so much :) | 11:40 |
| xtriz | one more thing | 11:41 |
| xtriz | where can i find the config files of xfce-settings ? | 11:41 |
| bgardner | xtriz: The files themselves? I imagine you want the folder ./.config/xfce4 | 11:42 |
| xtriz | bgardner, if any changes i want to make i can edit this files and it will be visible in the gui correct ? | 11:43 |
| bgardner | xtriz: I would guess so, but I haven't done that myself. | 11:45 |
| xtriz | let me experiment :) | 11:46 |
| ui_ | At least for panels, you restart xfce4-panel, as in http://askubuntu.com/a/224037/24432 | 11:47 |
| ui_ | +for the menu, restart xfdesktop, http://wiki.xfce.org/howto/customize-menu | 11:48 |
| bgardner | And that's the kind of detail I wasn't sure about - thanks ui_ | 11:49 |
| ui_ | though I don't know whether there are other cases | 11:49 |
| ui_ | But I think that logging out and logging in again should be sufficient. | 11:50 |
| ui_ | ... if you are unsure whether you forgot to restart some of these services. | 11:51 |
| xtriz | ui_, that was very useful info :) | 12:52 |
