| xubuntu380 | hi guys and top of the morning to ya. what i'm wondering is, how does it pan out if i use compton for compositing in xubuntu. is it stable? I meant per these instrucions: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2144468 | 07:17 |
| Noskcaj | xubuntu380, It should be | 07:40 |
| xubuntu380 | Noskcaj, thanks for your answer. Just looking for some composition without screen tearing in YT and VLC. Actually, i think i enabled openGL inside VLC itself, so i hope that's good atleast. I really don't like changing defaults :) | 07:41 |
| HardWareGuy | Soo if nothing is changing for 14.04, is it basically done and usable? | 07:59 |
| cfhowlett | HardWareGuy, ??? it's in alpha! It will change! but if you're feeling like you just can't wait - go for it. | 08:00 |
| HardWareGuy | xubuntu hasn't changed much over the years and releases, don't see enough changes to break 14.04 | 08:01 |
| cfhowlett | your box, your problem if you break it. have fun with that. | 08:01 |

| nikin_ | ? | 10:17 |
| slickymaster | nikin_: see this http://askubuntu.com/questions/135339/assign-highest-priority-to-my-local-repository | 10:22 |
| nikin_ | slickymaster: i read through it quickly so i have to make my own repostory? | 10:26 |
| slickymaster | nikin_: all you have to do is to edit your /etc/apt/sources.list file | 10:38 |
| slickymaster | nikin_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu | 10:38 |
| nikin_ | slickymaster: i have just the very basics in there | 10:39 |
| nikin_ | At some point in the update process.. it jumps from 99% to 1% .. and starts getting TranslationIndexes and translation-en stuff | 10:42 |

| blinky_ | hi all, got a problem. | 12:48 |
| blinky_ | I have a GTX560 with 2 monitor attached, I have an intel onboard(i5 GPU) with another monitor installed. I did a fresh install yesterday of xUbuntu 13.10 and had all three running, albeit I have to deselect the intel and reselect it for it to work. I then installed the nvidia-319 driver and lost the intel monitor, removed them and installed the latest from the nvidia site and lost lightdm and the intel monitor. I also have one of the nvidia monit | 12:48 |
| blinky_ | or | 12:48 |
| blinky_ | <blinky> not able to get the correct res, any ideas how to solve this.Sorry for the monster post. | 12:48 |

| nikola_ | nop | 18:20 |
| nikola_ | I have duall boot xubuntu with vista | 18:20 |
| nikola_ | 300 G hard disk that the 100 of them are in xubuntu | 18:21 |
| TheSheep | nikola_: if you go to "File system", then "home", what directories can you see there? | 18:21 |
| monatsend | hi there, i have a problem. after installing nvidea-current my xubuntu displays the wrong screen on my monitor. here everithing i got so far: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/18121147/Screenshot%20-%2006.01.2014%20-%2019%3A18%3A03.png. can anybody help me? | 18:22 |
| nikola_ | all the default but there are empty | 18:22 |
| TheSheep | nikola_: "all the default"? | 18:23 |
| nikola_ | Documents,Downloads,Music | 18:24 |
| nikola_ | Public,Template,Videos | 18:24 |
| TheSheep | no, no, go to "File System" and then to the directory "home" in there | 18:25 |
| TheSheep | not to your home directory | 18:25 |
| nikola_ | same | 18:26 |
| nikola_ | I go to File System then home | 18:26 |
| nikola_ | and I see the same folders but are empty | 18:27 |
| nikola_ | without my files | 18:27 |
| TheSheep | that doesn't make any sense, there should be directories for users in there | 18:27 |
| TheSheep | is this a standard installation? | 18:28 |
| nikola_ | but I have only 1 user me | 18:28 |
| nikola_ | what you mean standard instalation? | 18:28 |
| TheSheep | did you do something funny with it? | 18:28 |
| nikola_ | funny? | 18:29 |
| TheSheep | like setting a non-standard home directory, for example | 18:29 |
| nikola_ | I do not have idea how to do that I am niewbie to linux like baby | 18:29 |
| nikola_ | I like the xubuntu because it is the only linux OS that I do not need to download driver for my chipset | 18:30 |
| TheSheep | is your home directory on the same partition as the rest of the system, or did you choose a separate partition for it during the installation? | 18:30 |
| TheSheep | we could see that if you could pastebin your /etc/fstab | 18:30 |
| TheSheep | (that's a file in the 'etc' directory in 'File System') | 18:31 |
| nikola_ | I cut 1G for swap and the other 100 to put the xubuntu | 18:31 |
| nikola_ | pastebin? | 18:31 |
| TheSheep | !pastebin | 18:31 |
| ubottu | For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imagebin.org/?page=add | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. | 18:32 |
| nikola_ | ok wait | 18:32 |
| TheSheep | nikola_: you can open a terminal and type 'pastebinit < /etc/fstab' and paste the url here | 18:32 |
| nikola_ | what url? | 18:33 |
| TheSheep | the one that it will print for you | 18:33 |
| nikola_ | wait | 18:33 |
| nikola_ | I write in the terminal | 18:34 |
| nikola_ | and the terminal answer that there is not such file or directory | 18:34 |
| nikola_ | nikolas@nikolas-Compaq-Presario-CQ60-Notebook-PC:~$ pastebinit<etc/fstab bash: etc/fstab: No such file or directory | 18:35 |
| TheSheep | you forgot / | 18:35 |
| TheSheep | at the begginning of etc | 18:35 |
| nikola_ | http://paste.ubuntu.com/6704672/ | 18:36 |
| TheSheep | ok, so it's all on the single parition | 18:37 |
| nikola_ | yes | 18:37 |
| TheSheep | do you remember if you maybe selected to have your home directory encrypted? | 18:37 |
| nikola_ | o no | 18:37 |
| nikola_ | I do not think so | 18:37 |
| nikola_ | I have a password but it was never problem | 18:38 |
| TheSheep | if you press ctrl+h the file manager should show also hidden files, anything in there? | 18:38 |
| nikola_ | it has a folder hide that it says lost+found | 18:39 |
| nikola_ | but when I am trying to open it | 18:39 |
| TheSheep | that's in File System | 18:40 |
| nikola_ | it throws an error that I can not see it | 18:40 |
| TheSheep | but in you home? | 18:40 |
| TheSheep | n your home? | 18:40 |
| nikola_ | oo wait | 18:40 |
| TheSheep | I'm pretty much baffled, because I can't imagine a situation where user's files would simply disappear without being deleted or move by that user or some script that he runs | 18:41 |
| nikola_ | I do not know | 18:41 |
| nikola_ | I was just choose a program to download from the ubuntu center | 18:41 |
| nikola_ | and another strange is | 18:42 |
| nikola_ | that I do not see the image on files | 18:42 |
| nikola_ | or folders | 18:42 |
| nikola_ | if I restart and login in recovery you think can bring my folders back? | 18:43 |
| TheSheep | nikola_: can you do 'mount | pastebinit' and paste the url? | 18:43 |
| nikola_ | you mean to write in terminal mount |pastebinit? | 18:44 |
| TheSheep | I honestly have no idea, because I can't think of what could have such effects | 18:44 |
| TheSheep | yes | 18:44 |
| TheSheep | that will give the list of all mounted filesystems | 18:44 |
| nikola_ | http://paste.ubuntu.com/6704672/ | 18:45 |
| nikola_ | it gives me the same url | 18:45 |
| TheSheep | the number should be different | 18:45 |
| nikola_ | http://paste.ubuntu.com/6704746/ | 18:47 |
| nikola_ | I run it again | 18:47 |
| TheSheep | did you look in that /media/nikolas? | 18:48 |
| nikola_ | where is that? | 18:48 |
| nikola_ | media? | 18:48 |
| TheSheep | File System -> media -> nikolas | 18:49 |
| TheSheep | but it's a fuse filesystem, so it may be a windows disk or something | 18:49 |
| nikola_ | in that file is my swap files that Xubuntu need to boot | 18:49 |
| nikola_ | fuse filesystem is the broken file system? | 18:50 |
| TheSheep | no | 18:50 |
| TheSheep | fuse is a way of having the filesystem drivers run with user's permissions, I'm just guessing this is some external or windows disk because they are often mounted like that | 18:51 |
| TheSheep | but I don't understand what you mean by "swap files", your swap is on a separate partition according to fstab | 18:52 |
| nikola_ | yes I have install it like that | 18:52 |
| nikola_ | but in media/nikolas I see only this partition | 18:53 |
| TheSheep | so what is /media/nikolas/Δεσμευμένο από το σύστημα ? | 18:53 |
| nikola_ | the last are in Greeks | 18:53 |
| nikola_ | it means that my system needs this files | 18:54 |
| nikola_ | the system has take this part | 18:54 |
| monatsend | can somebody help me? | 18:54 |
| TheSheep | monatsend: I really don't know much about nvidia drivers, sorry | 18:54 |
| TheSheep | monatsend: you might try asking on #ubuntu and searching the forums | 18:55 |
| monatsend | ok ty. i will try on #ubuntu | 18:55 |
| TheSheep | nikola_: you mean Windows? | 18:55 |
| TheSheep | nikola_: because I don't remember Linux doing such things | 18:56 |
| nikola_ | no | 18:56 |
| TheSheep | nikola_: oh, that is probably some windows partition | 18:56 |
| nikola_ | the windows are in other part | 18:56 |
| nikola_ | alone 148 GB | 18:56 |
| nikola_ | my externall disk is cut it in 3 pieces | 18:57 |
| nikola_ | one is the xubuntu file system | 18:57 |
| nikola_ | the second is the swap partition that Xubuntu needs | 18:57 |
| nikola_ | and 148 G is the vista | 18:57 |
| TheSheep | I'm very sorry, but I really can't see what could possibly have happened there | 18:58 |
| TheSheep | I can't help you | 18:58 |
| nikola_ | ok thanks | 18:58 |
| nikola_ | thanks for the help | 18:58 |

| Squall88uk | Anyone know how i'd go about making a cursor them? I searched all over and all i can find is guides on how to install downloaded themes | 20:43 |
| holstein | Squall88uk: which would you like? making a cursor theme? for xfce? or how to install a certain theme? what theme in that case? and where did you get it? | 20:47 |
| Squall88uk | I want to make a cursor theme from scratch for xfce then install it. | 20:48 |
| holstein | Squall88uk: http://orford.org/gtk/#cursors might be a good place to start, and/or try downloading one such as http://xfce-look.org/content/show.php/Polar+Cursor+Theme?content=27913 and just see what is going on there | 20:50 |
| holstein | Squall88uk: you might try a gtk or xfce specific channel | 20:50 |
| Squall88uk | Out of curiosity what is gtk? I know xfce is the DE but i have no idea what gtk is. I've heard the term a lot since i started using linux and never worked out what it is. Also whats x11? | 20:54 |
| holstein | !x | 20:54 |

| holstein | !gtk | 20:54 |
| ubottu | GTK is the !GIMP toolkit, which forms the base of !GNOME and is used by many applications to provide a !GUI | 20:54 |
| Squall88uk | !GIMP | 20:56 |
| ubottu | gimp is an advanced image manipulation application for Ubuntu. See http://www.gimp.org for tutorials and more information. | 20:56 |
| Squall88uk | i thought gnome was a different DE to Xfce even though they apparantly look very similar | 20:56 |
| holstein | Squall88uk: they are different.. they both use gtk | 20:57 |
| Squall88uk | ahh right ok i think i get it now. So when i use themes in general on xfce i use the gtk theme for some aspects of the overall look and the xfce window manager for other aspects of the overall look. Is that right ( or at least in the same ballpark lol)? | 20:59 |
| holstein | Squall88uk: gtk ones should work.. it depends on who made them, and if they are made for what you are using | 21:03 |
| Squall88uk | Well atm i use the window manager settings to set my title bar look (from a downloaded theme) then the appearance setting for the general overall look of the system ie greybird | 21:05 |
| Squall88uk | Or am I go about that in completely the wrong way? | 21:08 |
| holstein | Squall88uk: there is not "wrong" way. the "best" way will depend on what you want to do. the supported themes and packages from the repos should work easily and well. ones you download from elsewhere will be supported by the creators of the themes. if you want to make one, you can download one and look at how its made | 21:11 |

| fredderik74 | it will only execute the action once, right? when I turn the machine on, it wont turn itself down | 23:46 |
| holstein | fredderik74: it will do what you script.. which is just "shutdown" | 23:47 |
| holstein | fredderik74: not sure what you mean by "turn its self down".. the script you make will run whenever you schedule it to run | 23:48 |
