[08:31] <nikolam> VLC player in 12.04LTS 32-bit, hogs cpu and refuses to be killed while freezes X , when playing .MOV files. Can only be forcedly killed by kill -9 <pid>
[08:38] <ochosi> nikolam: sounds like you should report a bug against vlc? (or was there another hidden question in your statement? :))
[08:43] <nikolam> ochosi, yup, why life sucks so much? and what have I did to deserve this horrible faith with untested VLC in LTS? :D
[08:43] <ochosi> hehe
[08:43] <ochosi> sorry bout that
[08:43] <nikolam> hm, that might be nice bug report  ;p
[08:44] <ochosi> indeed
[12:05] <mario___> I have problem with my xubuntu 13.04, i dont see the GUI, i see blue screen with loading for 2-3 sec and later i see only black screen with cursor on top
[12:05] <mario___> i can use the terminal alt+f1, f2
[12:06] <mario___> can someone help me to repair my xubuntu ?
[12:07] <mario___> when i type startx in terminal i have message: failed to start session "gnome"
[12:07] <bgardner> mario___: Login to one of the terminals and review /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[12:08] <bgardner> mario___: See if you can get more descriptive errors, usually near the bottom.
[12:10] <mario___> bgardner: i can't see any error
[12:11] <bgardner> mario___: Try grep "(EE)" /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[12:11] <bgardner> mario___: That might help you zero in on it.
[12:12] <mario___> cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep "(EE)" is ok ?
[12:12] <bgardner> mario___: SUre
[12:13] <mario___> bgardner: i dont see anything only one line where type: (WW) Warning (EE) eror...
[12:15] <bgardner> mario___: Not sure how much you can do, but can you give us 'cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | pastebinit'?
[12:17] <mario___> bgardner: paste.ubuntu.com/6119198
[12:20] <bgardner> mario___: Did this ever work, or is it a new install that has never started for you?
[12:21] <mario___> bgardner: this xubuntu previously works perfect, but today i can't start it
[12:21] <bgardner> mario___: Any recent package removals that you recall?
[12:22] <bgardner> mario___: cat /var/log/apt/history.log
[12:25] <mario___> bgardner: lastest install is mysql-server mysql-client php5-mysql...
[12:25] <mario___> after broking i install lynx and irssi to get help
[12:25] <mario___> from net
[12:26] <bgardner> mario___: Okay
[12:27] <mario___> bgardner: can i fix it ?
[12:27] <mario___> or i need reinstall ?
[12:27] <bgardner> mario___: Give me a moment, I'm researching
[12:27] <mario___> ok
[12:35] <mario___> bgardner: are you find any solution ?
[12:37] <bgardner> mario___: Not yet, but still looking
[12:40] <bgardner> mario___: What do you get for dpkg-query -l gnome-session
[12:41] <bgardner> mario___: No need to quote the whole line, I just want to know if it has a status of "ii"
[12:42] <mario___> bgardner: paste.ubuntu.com/6119282
[12:44] <bgardner> mario___: Hm.  So your startx failure says it wants to, but can't, start a gnome session.  And you don't have it installed.
[12:44] <bgardner> mario___: One second
[12:45] <mario___> bgardner: are i need gnome-session for xubuntu ?
[12:45] <bgardner> mario___: I wonder why a xubuntu installation wants to start gnome...
[12:45] <bgardner> mario___: I don't think so, but off the top of my head I admit I don't know for certain.
[12:45] <mario___> bgardner: how i can start xfce session ?
[12:47] <bgardner> mario___: Do you have a .xinitrc in your home folder?
[12:48] <mario___> bgardner: no
[12:49] <mario___> bgardner: i think that no solution for my problem
[12:49] <mario___> i will try start xubuntu in recovery mode in grub
[12:49] <bgardner> mario___: There's always a solution, but it may take a bit
[12:49] <mario___> i will restart my pc and enter in recovery mode to try
[12:50] <mario___> thanks for help bgardner :)
[12:50] <bgardner> mario___: You can try installing gnome-session, but I've been avoiding that because it will install a ton of packages.
[12:50] <bgardner> mario___: All right, good luck.
[12:50] <cfhowlett> bgardner, gnome on xubuntu just seems ... wrong.
[12:51] <bgardner> cfhowlett: I hear you, but I don't understand the error message.
[12:51] <bgardner> cfhowlett: Been forever since I burrowed into X this way.
[13:12] <xubuntu897> Hi all I hope you can help me. I installed xubuntu 13.04 on my pc and it runs quite a lot slower than mint 15 xfce. Is there something I can do to fix this?
[13:15] <cfhowlett> xubuntu897, turn off unnecessary eye candy: shimmers, glimmers and jumpers
[13:15] <xubuntu897> straight installation nothting installed
[13:16] <xubuntu897> on both xubuntu and mint
[13:16] <cfhowlett> xubuntu897, I'm referring to desktop/display effects
[13:16] <xubuntu897> no desktop effects active
[13:17] <xubuntu897> mint had cairo dock installed and it still outperformed xubuntu
[13:18] <xubuntu897> i tried installing the new kernel 3.11.1 and using the open source amd diskplay driver as the closed source driver trashed the os
[13:19] <xubuntu897> I am talking about slow to start up firefox etc
[13:20] <cfhowlett> xubuntu897, ONLY ff?
[13:22] <mario__> how i can start grub to start xubuntu in recovery mode ?
[13:22] <xubuntu897> cfhowlett what do you mean by xubuntu897, ONLY ff? sorry I do not know linux that well
[13:22] <mario__> when i restart pc i dont see the grub
[13:22] <mario__> automaticaly start xubuntu
[13:22] <mario__> but xubuntu is broken :@
[13:23] <cfhowlett> xubuntu897, are you saying it's slow ONLY when running FFOX?
[13:24] <xubuntu897> slow when opening up applications like firefox google chrome etc
[13:24] <cfhowlett> mario__, if you ONLY have xubuntu, you don't normally see grub, but it'll boot straight to ubuntu.
 when downloading files in fire fox the window to display to open or save takes a while
 any ideas other than installing mint
[13:49] <xubuntu897> Hi all on a clean install of xubuntu 13.04 why would xubuntu be slower to open up aplications and run applications compared to Mint 15 xfce
[13:49] <knome> !patience | xubuntu897
[13:50] <knome> not many people joined since you asked; maybe try those other methods
[13:50] <xubuntu897> ubottu I have tried searching and the only thing I can come up with is preling
[13:50] <xubuntu897> prelink
[14:04] <xubuntu897> thanks all
[20:52] <xubuntu749> I am stuck at the install screen with (ubiquity:4773): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_window_resize: assertion 'width > 0' failed what do i do?
[22:37] <argoneus> Hello
[22:37] <argoneus> I think I have done something wrong
[22:37] <knome> the chair for confessions is at #xubuntu-offtopic
[22:38] <argoneus> http://paste.ubuntu.com/6121524/
[22:38] <argoneus> I tried dualbooting xubuntu/windows
[22:38] <argoneus> but looking at this it didn't really go well, did it?
[22:38] <argoneus> partition 3 is not aligned according to align-check opt
[22:38] <knome> that looks fine
[22:39] <argoneus> knome: it does? >.>
[22:44] <knome> argoneus, yep
[22:44] <glitchd> hello all
[22:45] <glitchd> got an easy question for anyone willing to help real quick
[22:45] <argoneus> knome: so I shouldn't worry about p3 not being aligned?
[22:45] <glitchd> well, 2 questions really..
[22:45] <knome> argoneus, it's extended, so it's basically 4+5
[22:45] <argoneus> Oh
[22:45] <Maple__> glitchd, just ask
[22:45] <Maple__> :p
[22:46] <glitchd> trying to figure out how to 1) change where usb's are mounted to when inserted, and 2) trying to figure out how to rename said usb.
[22:46] <glitchd> Maple__, thx i was typing already..lol
[22:46] <Maple__> glitchd, do you mean changing the label for the partition?
[22:47] <Maple__> As for the first, you can disable Thunar's daemon.
[22:47] <glitchd> i believe so
[22:47] <Maple__> ...and mount it manually via the terminal
[22:47] <glitchd> change what name is displayed when the drive is inserted
[22:47] <Maple__> lemme check
[22:47] <Maple__> Uh, not sure about that.
[22:47] <glitchd> i dont mind the auto mount feature
[22:48] <glitchd> its just that, when inserted its mounted to /media/username instead of /media/usb
[22:48] <knome> glitchd, gparted (from repositories) helps you change the label
[22:48] <glitchd> and sincee i originally installed with the usb, its named xubuntu 13.04
[22:48] <glitchd> i have gparted but keep running into an error, ill get the text from the error, 1 sec.
[22:49] <glitchd> ok so first off, the usb is being mounted in /dev/sdc1 instead of /deb/sdb1, i know its not a problems but id rather have it in sdb1
[22:50] <glitchd> lol it worked, i promise it wouldnt work earlier.
[22:50] <glitchd> but thx none the less
[22:50] <glitchd> problem solved
[22:51] <glitchd> well half the problem anyways..
[22:51] <knome> there's no way to control the dev name
[22:51] <glitchd> now i have to figure out how to get it to mount in sdb1 and not sdc1
[22:51] <glitchd> wompwomp
[22:51] <glitchd> oh well, ill just have to get used to it then i guess
[22:51] <glitchd> thx again=)
[22:51] <knome> you can add the stick to fstab by its UUID
[22:52] <knome> (and not automount)
[22:52] <knome> that way you don't have to worry about the dev name
[22:52] <glitchd> but i like the automount..
[22:52] <knome> well you can set up automount with fstab as well
[22:52] <glitchd> i guess my problem really isnt a problem.
[22:52] <knome> and you can control the mount directory
[22:52] <glitchd> just a mild annoyance
[22:52] <knome> no, doesn't sound like one :)
[22:53] <glitchd> all from fstab?
[22:53] <knome> yep.
[22:53] <knome> !fstab
[22:54] <glitchd> i have used fstab before to automount partitions, just not usb's
[22:54] <glitchd> ill look at that info
[22:54] <glitchd> thank you
[22:56] <knome> it's the same for usb devices, just make sure you use the UUID to catch the right device :)
[22:57] <glitchd> rightright, thankyou.
[22:57] <argoneus> honestly
