[01:48] <niel> hey guys I am thinking of switching from ubuntu to xubuntu is there anything I should watch out for?
[01:57] <Poisoned_Dragon> Aside from a different DE, it's still ubuntu. More or less.
[01:58] <Poisoned_Dragon> If you're familiar with one, the learning curve on the other shouldn't be terrible.
[02:01] <niel> ok cool
[02:11] <Poisoned_Dragon> I use Ubuntu Studio, which has xfce as the DE. I love it. It's pretty intuitive to setup.
[03:36] <niel> guys I got a problem my screen never actually turns off
[03:36] <niel> on both my xubuntu computers
[03:36] <niel> its just black
[03:47] <niel> hey anyone else here have problems with not being able to see dropbox stats it just opens the folder
[08:56] <richrock> anyone about?  need some help with the menu
[08:57] <lderan> richrock: what do you need help with?
[08:58] <richrock> hi,  I'm creating a menu entry for a program I installed (not available through synaptic).
[08:58] <richrock> It keeps putting the menu item into 'Other', when I want it in 'Development'
[09:00] <richrock> Tried setting menu entry while I had Development selected, no luck...
[09:03] <lderan> can't help you with that at the moment sorry
[09:05] <richrock> okay no worries.  it's not the end of the world, just can't figure out why.
[09:06] <richrock> ah, might be a way to hack the menu files...
[09:34] <m3kk> how do i configure sound in xubuntu? i cant find any icon "sound" in settings ?
[09:35] <baizon> m3kk: you can install pavucontrol
[09:36] <m3kk> baizon, so there is no way to configure sound in xubuntu by default? ok will isntall that
[09:36] <m3kk> baizon, "pavucontrol is already the latest version installed" so.. ?
[09:36] <baizon> use it :)
[09:37] <m3kk> baizon, i must start it from terminal?
[09:37] <baizon> if you want :)
[09:38] <m3kk> ...
[09:38] <m3kk> pavucontrol should be in settings like everything else?
[09:38] <m3kk> anyway suddenly lost all sound for no reason
[09:41] <m3kk> what happened? suddenly i hear no sound at all? pavucontrol shopws dB going up and down when viewing a youtube video.. but system is completly silent
[10:03] <m3kk> hi, i suddenly lost all sound? i run pavucontrol and while i run a youtube video it shows dB goes up and down like there is actual sound.. but there is none? I have not tried to configure anything since it was working out of the box

[10:46] <richrock> m3kk, on your pavucontrol, have you checked both the Playback AND Output Devices tabs?
[10:46] <richrock> I had similar problem, found the issue in the Output Devices
[11:26] <m3kk> richrock, yes
[11:28] <m3kk> richrock, what should i check in output?
[11:29] <richrock> do you have the same db levels going up and down?
[11:29] <m3kk> some* ?
[11:29] <richrock> and check the mute/audio settings there also.
[11:29] <m3kk> richrock, i actually got sound now.. pressed a few switches back and forth etc..
[11:29] <richrock> On my system, I had issue because I was using wrong soundcard
[11:29] <m3kk> have no idea what did the trick

[11:30] <richrock> *no pun intended
[11:30] <m3kk> richrock, hahaha'
[12:30] <al____> hi all
[12:31] <al____> Does anyone know the default shortcut-key to open a terminal in 11.10 xubuntu?
[12:32] <al____> I gather that no one is watching this?
[12:33] <bgardner> al____: Watching, just don't know that answer positively.
[12:33] <bgardner> al____: I would guess Ctrl-Alt-T.
[12:33] <al____> I tried that, thanks anyway bgardner
[12:33] <elfy> or possibly Super+T
[12:34] <al____> ctrl-alt-t used to work with 10.04 and I even found a site that said it worked with 11.10 but.....
[12:34] <al____> I will try elfy....
[12:34] <al____> wow!  thanx elfy!!!!!!!!
[12:35] <al____> You are amazing!
[12:35] <elfy> not so :)
[12:35] <al____> Everyone here is great!
[12:35] <al____> I will remember this channel
[12:35] <al____> Have a nice day all.
[16:04] <xubuntu232> Hi all :)
[16:07] <GridCube> hullo
[16:19] <dont-panic> how do you install whatever you need for making VM's on xubuntu?
[16:20] <elfy> I use virtualbox personally
[16:21] <legg1> sudo apt-get install virtualbox
[16:21] <legg1> however, i use vmware player
[16:21] <dont-panic> it doesn't matter which to me I don't think
[16:21] <elfy> I make sure to add the vbox sources - so I end up not using the standard repo version
[16:22] <dont-panic> vmware player looked like a bit of a process
[16:22] <dont-panic> whats the difference?
[16:22] <bgardner> dont-panic: Same concept, different manufacturers.
[16:23] <dont-panic> bgardner: I only need it to spin up random linux distro's to see if I can find one I like more
[16:24] <dont-panic> xubuntu's cool for a beefyish laptop, but my netbook needs lightweight stuff
[16:24] <bgardner> dont-panic: Then either should do.  I use Virtualbox daily and it works well, but I have heard good things about vmware player as well.
[16:24] <dont-panic> I did a debian netinstall, which is fast, just wanna see if I can find something lighter with apt-get
[16:25] <legg1> vmware install is quite easy
[16:25] <legg1> download the .bundle, chmod +x it, then sudo ./vmware-player
[16:25] <dont-panic> at work we use esx and kvm, but a vm should be pretty much the same across the board
[16:25] <dont-panic> legg1: wheres the bundle?
[16:25] <legg1> dont-panic, only thing liter than xfce, is fluxbox i think
[16:25] <legg1> dont-panic, go to vmware homepage, download, player, boop
[16:26] <dont-panic> legg1: awesome wm for the win lol
[16:26] <dont-panic> I love awesome
[16:26] <legg1> havent tried it
[16:26] <legg1> i only use xfce and fluxbox
[16:26] <legg1> for my boxes
[16:26] <dont-panic> jwm is even lighter, so is icewm
[16:26] <legg1> laptop is on xfce as well
[16:26] <dont-panic> i3 might even be lighter
[16:26] <legg1> then again, my laptop is a i7 with 16gb ram, and 128gb ssd, with 730M gfx
[16:27] <dont-panic> yeah, I have a similar setup for my main lappy
[16:28] <legg1> if it wasnt for my gtx 560 on my workstation, i could throw it and use the laptop only
[16:28] <legg1> stupid high speccs for a "laptop"
[16:28] <dont-panic> I rarely use my desktop anymore
[16:29] <bgardner> Starting to drift ot here.
[16:30] <dont-panic> yeah... where's that vm .bundle?
[18:11] <xubuntu055> hi
[19:29] <mbish> Hello, I'm using Xubuntu 13.10 64-bit and I'm trying to make Dolphin my default file manager. How can I do this?
[19:37] <brainwash> mbish: settings manager > preferred applications
[19:39] <mbish> I did that. I pointed it to the file and I get this error message: Failed to execute default file manager.  Failed to execute child process "/usr/share/applications/kde4/dolphin.desktop" (Permission denied).
[19:39] <bekks> mbish: Then check the permissions of that file.
[19:42] <mbish> says "owner root" How can i make myself the owner
[19:43] <bekks> mbish: Who says that? And why do you need to be the owner of a global file?
[19:47] <mbish> this is a screenshot of my permissions: http://i.imgur.com/EleHcJN.png
[19:49] <bekks> mbish: ls -lha "/usr/share/applications/kde4/dolphin.desktop" please, in a pastebin.
[19:51] <mbish> http://pastebin.com/WhAKpbt2
[19:53] <bekks> mbish: That file lacks execution permissions I guess.
[19:54] <mbish> I can still open the file on its own I just cant set it as my default file manager for some reason.
[20:00] <blueazimuth> you're not supposed to use a .desktop file as the program to launch but /usr/bin/dolphin
[20:00] <blueazimuth> ... oh he left
[20:16] <volsus> hey
[22:10] <rhin0> anyone know why virtualbox (set up for ubuntu) .. doesn't give the option for 64 bit ubuntu anymore?
[22:10] <bekks> Which version? And from which repo?
[22:11] <rhin0> 12.04
[22:12] <rhin0> someone said 'hardware acceleration may be disabled in your bios"
[22:12] <bekks> That may apply.
[22:14]  * rhin0 reboots
[22:23] <XLV> which tool for transfering iso to usb as install media works with xubuntu desktop 64?
[22:23] <XLV> universal usb installer 1.9.3.9 doesnt

[23:00] <bingo> hello. is there a way to remove the bluetooth icons from xubuntu taskbar? I dont use bluetooth ever
[23:06] <krytarik> bingo: Just disable it in your startup applications.
[23:06] <bingo> can i find that from settings manager?
[23:07] <Azelphur> bingo: yup, settings manager -> startup applications
[23:07] <bingo> h yes i see application autostart, t
[23:07] <bingo> ty
[23:19] <perola> Hello
[23:28] <perola> I am running xubuntu 13.04 and have power manager configured correctly (suspend when closing lid both on ac and on battery). However, when I close the lid nothing happens. Suspend itself is working when I select it from the menu. How could this be solved?
[23:34] <melodie> hi
[23:36] <melodie> does someone here have knowledge related to the creation of the isolinux content in the Live distribution?
[23:36] <melodie> I think the Xubuntu team might have some people saavy about making their own from the sources
[23:45] <Noskcaj10> melodie, Normally stuff like that should get asked on #ubuntu
[23:48] <melodie> oh hi Noskcaj10 !
[23:48] <Noskcaj10> hey melodie
[23:48] <melodie> aren't there too many people asking basic questions at #ubuntu ? :)
