[00:18] <xubuntu359> lightdm background is always matching with my desktop wallpaper.
[00:19] <xubuntu359> I don't like it especially since the one in the login menu is stretched while on the desktop is zoomed.
[00:20] <xubuntu359> where should I define the background picture? I've tried it on /etc/lightdm/lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf, but no success.
[00:24] <GridCube> xubuntu359, in lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf you can add something like background=/lib/plymouth/themes/xubuntu-logo/xubuntu-greybird.png
[00:24] <xubuntu359> GridCube yeah I've tried it
[00:25] <xubuntu359> I've changed it to #000000 also, but no success.
[05:26] <xubuntu902> Hello?
[05:27] <Unit193> Howdy.
[05:27] <ElectricErger> Hiya
[05:27] <xubuntu902> I have some Xubuntu questions, can anyone help?
[05:28] <Unit193> Not without knowing what they are.
[05:28] <ElectricErger> I can try, depends on how technical.
[05:28] <ElectricErger> ^
[05:28] <xubuntu902> I keep getting a no space available when i attempt to update but I have a 500GB
[05:29] <Unit193> How is it partitioned?
[05:29] <xubuntu902> I think that's the issue. Here's what I'm looking at:
[05:30] <xubuntu902> Filesystem              1K-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/mapper/ubuntu-root 472200480 105171856 343035488  24% / none                            4         0         4   0% /sys/fs/cgroup udev                      4039956         4   4039952   1% /dev tmpfs                      811176       904    810272   1% /run none                         5120         0      5120   0% /run/lock none                      4055
[05:30] <xubuntu902> What's the other one? h... -l?
[05:31] <baizon> xubuntu902: please use http://paste.ubuntu.com for code
[05:31] <xubuntu902> Okay Sorry
[05:31] <baizon> no problem
[05:32] <xubuntu902> May I ask why?
[05:32] <Unit193> Easier to read, doesn't spam the channel.
[05:32] <xubuntu902> Roger
[05:33] <xubuntu902> Okay, so what was that other code for the data, the one that shows my boot drive. That sucker is 93% full and I have no idea how to expand the partition
[05:34] <Unit193> df -h which you found, or you can list them with `lsblk` or `fdisk -l` as root, though don't show usage.
[05:35] <xubuntu902> Okay so how do I expand that partition
[05:35] <Unit193> Boot into a live CD and use gparted.
[05:35] <Unit193> !gparted
[05:39] <xubuntu902> Okay, from what you said I need to reboot into a LiveCD, go to the terminal and type in "sudo apt-get install gparted" or I can rip a CD at that location you provided?
[05:39] <xubuntu902> I just want to make sure I understand what you said.
[05:41] <xubuntu902> Will restructuring this partion effect my data?
[05:42] <Unit193> The Xubuntu LiveCD ships with gparted, if you still have it.
[05:42] <Unit193> It can, good to backup.
[05:44] <xubuntu902> Roger, thanks for the help!
[05:44] <Unit193> Sure.
[05:45] <xubuntu902> This is one of, oh, 9,000 more reasons to switch from Windows and IOS. The Linux community rules.
[05:46] <ElectricErger> So is #xubuntu-offtopic the social channel for Xubuntu people?
[05:48] <Unit193> ElectricErger: Yep.
[05:48] <ElectricErger> Cool thanks!
[06:45] <ElectricErger> So I run a computer refurbishing club at my school that recently switched to Xubuntu as our OS that we distribute. Is there any official collection of adverts that we could link to?
[06:48] <kj5t> The following might help http://xubuntu.org/marketingresources/
[06:48] <ElectricErger> That's just about what I was looking for
[06:48] <ElectricErger> Thank ya kindly
[06:49] <kj5t> High School or College?  Either way that is pretty cool -- both a great way for people to learn to Linux and to put older computers to good use.
[06:50] <ElectricErger> McGill University's Reboot McGill: http://reboot.mcgilleus.ca/
[07:05] <benonsoftware> ElectricErger: Looks like a great project.
[07:06] <ElectricErger> Thanks. I want to get some kind of tutorial system for learning Linux running for the members (and community at large, but the school does an okay job at that)
[08:41] <Myrtti> Janeks991: please fix your quassel
[09:29] <xubuntu098> Hello, which is the best version of Xubuntu?
[09:32] <Myrtti> "the latest"
[09:32] <Myrtti> no, seriously, what do you mean by best, by version, and what kind of gear were you planning to install it on, xubuntu098 ?
[09:33] <xubuntu098> Xubuntu 13.04 or 12.04?
[09:35] <xubuntu098> 12.04 is long term support?
[09:38] <Myrtti> oh ok then
[10:43] <Arpad2> hi
[10:43] <XRS1> hi
[10:44] <Arpad2> hii am still having low resolution of 640x480 on my Intel/Nvidia Optimus laptop, however I have found out that if I login as Guest, than I don't have this problem
[10:57] <baizon> Arpad2: then purge your configuration
[10:59] <Arpad2> baizon: ok, how to purge a configuration?
[11:07] <baizon> Arpad2: http://askubuntu.com/questions/206283/how-can-i-uninstall-a-nvidia-driver-completely
[11:07] <baizon> Arpad2: or https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaManual
[11:08] <Arpad2> ok, thank you
[11:52] <Arpad2> what is the xubuntu version for the 'sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop' ?
[11:52] <elfy> the same
[11:52] <elfy> but xubuntu-desktop
[11:53] <Arpad2> ok
[12:04] <Arpad2> baizon: thank you for your help. it worked:))
[12:04] <Arpad2> in /etc/modules was no nouveau
[12:04] <Arpad2> I guess that made some problems
[12:05] <baizon> no problem
[12:06] <Arpad2> so , the nouveau is using only the integrated card , not the other one?
[12:17] <Dan_D> How do I use cd in the terminal to set the directory to myDesktop?
[12:19] <Arpad2> cd /home/<username>/Desktop
[12:19] <Dan_D> Thanks
[12:19] <Myrtti> Arpad2: or in short cd ~/Desktop/
[12:20] <Arpad2> ok :)
[12:20] <Arpad2> I don't know how to find that funny sign on the keyboard
[12:21] <Arpad2> Myrtti: and what would happen if they were more than one Desktop folder?
[12:22] <Myrtti> huhwhat
[12:22] <Myrtti> ~ is a shortcut to /home/currentusername/
[12:23] <Arpad2> thank you :0
[12:23] <Myrtti> also known as $HOME
[12:23] <Myrtti> interchangeable
[14:11] <xubuntu334> what is the defaul password for root in xubuntu ?
[14:11] <baizon> there is none
[14:11] <cfhowlett> !root|xubuntu334,
[14:17] <Ludovik> For some reason I am not getting a GUI install with my VMWare workstation on Xubuntu, I CHMOD and then run sudo X.bin and but no luck. Anyone have any ideas?
[16:14] <vojta> ahoj
[16:14] <vojta> Hello
[18:52] <yeyeman> when I'm copying something from my android phone, all the folder and file names seems to be replaced by number??
[18:56] <TheSheep> yeyeman: yeah, i also have that, but only when I copy whole directories
[18:57] <yeyeman> TheSheep, for me it's always, both directories and individual files
[18:58] <TheSheep> you can try using a different program to copy it
[18:59] <TheSheep> there was gmtp
[19:02] <num7> Is xubuntu a good choose for a laptop like N210 plus ?
[19:32] <Cazzano> Hi
[19:32] <Cazzano> I have a question regarding the window manager or window theme thingy on xfce
[19:33] <TheSheep> !ask
[19:33] <Cazzano> I changed the theme to black so it's easier at night etc...and so pretty much every program changes it colors too
[19:33] <Cazzano> but now I can't see the adresses I put into opera
[19:34] <TheSheep> Cazzano: looks like they hardcoded the font color in there -- report a bug to Opera
[19:37] <yeyeman> the dark theme does not fit well with many programs on xubuntu in my experience
[19:38] <yeyeman> for example, XChat irc client indicates channel activity with changing the channel name to red
[19:38] <yeyeman> which really burns my eyes on a dark gray background
[19:38] <well_laid_lawn> that one is configurable
[19:38] <Cazzano> TheSheep: And can I work the other way arround? The theme is telling opera to use a white color while opera keeps the white background in the adress list..so white on white:/
[19:39] <TheSheep> Cazzano: yeah, whichever color they hardcoded
[19:40] <TheSheep> Cazzano: you can also try other dark themes, it's possible that the theme authors forgot to change some widget that opera uses
[19:40] <Cazzano> but there is no way to except opera of the theme?
[19:44] <Cazzano> hmm..and how/where can I get other themes?
[19:56] <TheSheep> !themes
[19:59] <Cazzano> thanks ^_^
[20:44] <cmb> Hi, I'm having some trouble. I'm having some crashes.  When I try to install something via a package manager, I get this message: E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[20:44] <cmb> E: _cache->open() failed, please report.
[20:45] <cmb> when I run that I get a crash, with a call trace
[20:45] <cmb> I took a picture of the Call Trace, I can upload it if anyone wants to see it.
[20:49] <cmb> any ideas would be great. I cannot install any packages
[20:52] <bekks> cmb: Pastebin the entire output please.
