| kirashi | Hey | 01:41 |
|---|---|---|
| XRS1 | ji | 01:41 |
| XRS1 | hi* | 01:41 |
| kirashi | New to XUBUNTU :3 | 01:42 |
| XRS1 | enjoy | 01:42 |
| kirashi | so far it's a lot faster than mint and reg ubuntu | 01:42 |
| kirashi | lol | 01:42 |
| XRS1 | thats the idea | 01:42 |
| kirashi | Downloads are still pretty slow though :( | 01:44 |
| GridCube | do you have low ram? | 01:48 |
| kirashi | GridCube, 4gb | 01:51 |
| GridCube | you shouldnt be having any problem | 01:51 |
| GridCube | from and OS side | 01:52 |
| XRS1 | i'd be looking at the router | 01:52 |
| XRS1 | it's not USB based is it? | 01:53 |
| kirashi | Uh no it's not | 01:54 |
| kirashi | like when I was on Windows I downloaded really fast lol | 01:54 |
| kirashi | now it takes 10 minutes to download a 500mb file | 01:54 |
| XRS1 | the network connection i mean | 01:55 |
| kirashi | What do you mean lol? | 01:55 |
| kirashi | Sorry I'm obviously technically challenged :p | 01:55 |
| GridCube | kirashi, that you should check your router, your modem or with your ISP | 01:56 |
| GridCube | there is no real reason why your computer would download slower from xubuntu or any linux OS | 01:56 |
| kirashi | well GridCube my laptop (w7) downloads extremely fast | 01:57 |
| kirashi | but all the Linux Distros I've tried don't :( | 01:57 |
| GridCube | kirashi, you can read this http://www.ubuntulinuxhelp.com/speed-up-your-internet-connection-in-ubuntu-linux/ | 02:01 |
| GridCube | please don't go around editing config files before backuping things first | 02:02 |
| GridCube | you might regret that | 02:02 |
| kirashi | does anyone here know how I can turn on my second core? | 02:17 |
| kirashi | Anyone? | 02:35 |
| Unit193 | You're reactor core? | 02:38 |
| kirashi | Unit193, I have two cores in my pc but only one is on | 02:47 |
| kirashi | I want them both on :( | 02:48 |
| kirashi | Oh wow | 02:57 |
| kirashi | the internet is going to become censored to crap... | 02:57 |
| kirashi | "For the first time, actual Presidents and Prime Ministers of 12 powerful countries will meet behind closed doors to seal an extreme Internet censorship plan called the Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP).1" | 02:58 |

| Arpad2 | hi | 08:32 |
| Arpad2 | how to change resolution. I am stuck at low resolution 640x480 | 08:33 |
| baizon | Arpad2: http://askubuntu.com/questions/62681/how-do-i-setup-dual-monitors-in-xfce | 08:34 |
| Arpad2 | ok | 08:35 |
| Arpad2 | so, I should use the xrandr command? | 08:36 |
| baizon | Arpad2: or arandr | 08:37 |
| Arpad2 | thanks | 08:38 |
| Arpad2 | baizon: I got this http://paste.ubuntu.com/6161988/ | 08:51 |

| knome | Arpad2, i'm pretty sure that's not what the page told you to do | 09:00 |
| knome | Arpad2, did you read it? | 09:01 |
| Arpad2 | knome: yes | 09:01 |
| knome | Arpad2, so what's your display name? | 09:02 |
| Arpad2 | don't know | 09:02 |
| knome | Arpad2, ok, so you didn't read the page | 09:03 |
| knome | Arpad2, open the terminal and type 'xrandr -q' | 09:03 |
| knome | pastebin the output | 09:03 |
| Simooon | why dont you just use the gui? | 09:03 |
| Arpad2 | knome: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6162019/ | 09:04 |
| knome | Arpad2, your display name is LVDS1 and it doesn't support other modes than 640x480. you probably need a proprietary driver. | 09:05 |
| Arpad2 | it worked with open source until reciently | 09:05 |
| knome | what did you do before it stopped working? | 09:06 |
| Arpad2 | I was following instructions to install nvidia driver | 09:06 |
| knome | then you should keep on following those instructions, or revert to what you had before that with the instructions | 09:07 |
| knome | if you installed the nvidia drivers properly, you should be able to run 'nvidia-settings' and tweak your display there | 09:08 |
| Arpad2 | please could you help me how to reinstall nouveu? | 09:08 |
| Arpad2 | this ia an nvidia optimus laptop | 09:08 |
| Arpad2 | it didnt work | 09:09 |
| knome | yes, but we need to know what you have done | 09:09 |
| knome | afaik, optimus laptops needs bumblebee drivers anyway, so normal nvidia drivers wouldn't work | 09:10 |
| Arpad2 | well it didn't | 09:10 |
| Arpad2 | it all went wrong when I run the command sudo nvidia-xconfig | 09:11 |
| knome | can you please link to the tutorial so we know what you have been trying to do? | 09:12 |
| Sysi | sudo rm -rf /etc/X11/xorg.conf and be really careful to not purge your whole root partition | 09:14 |
| Arpad2 | ok | 09:14 |
| Arpad2 | done | 09:16 |
| Arpad2 | knome: there were several tutorials at this point :( | 09:16 |
| knome | Arpad2, for the future; please follow one per time, and if that doesn't work, revert to what you had before starting. otherwise you'll just mess up your system. | 09:17 |
| knome | *before starting with another tutorial | 09:17 |
| Arpad2 | at this point also I think I have removed all nvidia | 09:19 |
| Arpad2 | sudo apt-get --purge remove nvidia-* | 09:19 |
| Arpad2 | with this | 09:19 |
| knome | that might or might not have removed all nvidia drivers; depending on the tutorials | 09:20 |
| Arpad2 | ok | 09:20 |
| Arpad2 | thank you for your time , I will come back later to ask for ideas how to put back nouveau working | 09:23 |
| baizon | i got a problem, after logging in applications from my last time open. But i disabled it, any idea how to fix it? | 10:56 |
| koegs | clean ~/.cache/sessions | 11:00 |
| baizon | koegs: did it already | 11:00 |
| baizon | was the first thing i tried | 11:01 |
| koegs | hn | 11:02 |
| koegs | something in ~/.config/autostart? | 11:03 |
| ObrienDave | baizon... look in session and startup. uncheck auto save, close everything, go to session tab, press clear saved sessions then save current session | 11:03 |
| baizon | koegs: only synapse and dropbox | 11:06 |
| baizon | ObrienDave: no, still the same problem | 11:06 |
| ObrienDave | dropbox has its own setting | 11:06 |
| baizon | the thing is, i use xfce-terminal --drop-down | 11:07 |
| baizon | so when i log out i don't close it. | 11:07 |
| baizon | when i log in again the xfce-terminal pops up | 11:07 |
| well_laid_lawn | don't save the session | 11:14 |
| baizon | well_laid_lawn: i'm not saving them | 11:16 |

| mohad | hello | 18:36 |
| mohad | Any ideas how to get xubuntu to my old laptop? It won't boot usb or dvd, only cd. | 18:37 |
| baizon | mohad: you can use the minimal iso and then install xubuntu afterwards | 18:37 |
| mohad | Should I install older distro that fits a CD and upgrade from there? If so Where to get such old distro that fit a cd? Tryed to google xubuntu 10.10 and 11.10, but all the download linksare dead. | 18:38 |
| mohad | baizon: Can you point me to finding the minimal iso? | 18:39 |
| baizon | mohad: 12.04 fits on a CD | 18:39 |
| baizon | mohad: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 18:39 |
| mohad | baizon: thanks a million. I will try it out. Bean really fustradet whit this for several hours. | 18:40 |
| baizon | no problem :) | 18:40 |
| baizon | mohad: the 12.04 isos are here: http://ftp.tu-chemnitz.de/pub/linux/ubuntu-cdimage/xubuntu/releases/precise/release/ | 18:40 |
| baizon | hmm sorry wrong address. http://xubuntu.org/getxubuntu/ there check under 12.04 Precise Pangolin | 18:41 |
| mohad | baizon: thanks. | 18:43 |
| mohad | Call me cheap, but I can see no reason to switch my old laptop (Fujitsu lifebook C-1020) to newer when it still satifies my needs. =) | 18:46 |
| uberamd | anyone know the trick to getting xubuntu to turn off your monitor after X minutes? | 20:03 |
