[05:31] <xubuntu554> hello. i have been reading about my problem with screen tearing in firefox, flash and vlc, and have come up with multiple solutions, which are: sync to vblank (as per webupd8 instructions here: http://www.webupd8.org/2012/10/xfce-sync-to-vblank-support-for-xfwm.html) a ppa to xfwm 4.11 as here (http://www.webupd8.org/2013/10/xfwm4-4110-released-with-sync-to-vblank.html) and ppa for compton (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t
[05:31] <xubuntu554> which one of these is the most viable solution?
[05:33] <Unit193> xubuntu554: Xfwm4 is something that comes with Xubuntu, while compton is something that doesn't but supports other compositing effects.
[05:34] <xubuntu554> yep, i know, that's why i'm asking, i'm not sure what people's experience with compton is
[05:35] <Unit193> I don't need the special effects really, so I don't use it.  It's really up to you though.

[06:28] <xubuntu520> hi
[06:29] <xubuntu520> i have problems with ubuntu software center
[06:30] <xubuntu520> it opens but it dissapears after 3 seconds
[06:31] <xubuntu520> help
[06:34] <pero> is there any reason at all to even have software center? if not, is it possible and harmless to remove?
[06:37] <elfy> entirely possible to remove it and it's harmless - I use synaptic - but that's a different  question :)
[06:51] <pero> elfy: are you sure? apt-get remove software-center also requires uninstalling xfce-desktop
[06:52] <elfy> yep - it will, but that's just a meta-package - removing ANY of the default packages referred to by xubuntu-desktop will do that
[06:52] <elfy> because at that point you don't have 'xubuntu-desktop' basically :)
[06:53] <pero> but...that's not 'harmless' anymore is it
[06:53] <pero> wouldnt there be sideeffects to doing that?
[06:54] <elfy> there used to be I think when upgrading to next version, but afaik it's a non-issue now
[06:55] <pero> i've earlier deleted some default, yet non-integral packages - xchat, transmission, games - and they didnt ask me to remove the desktop package
[06:56] <pero> just poof'd gmusicbrowser too
[06:56] <elfy> ok
[06:56] <elfy> but - my point remains - removing xubuntu-desktop along with a package you are removing is not an issue
[06:57] <pero> k
[06:57] <pero> thx
[06:57] <elfy> http://askubuntu.com/questions/126390/is-it-safe-to-remove-ubuntu-desktop-package
[06:57] <elfy> for ubuntu read xubuntu/lubuntu/kubuntu
[07:02] <pero> well, nothing blew up
[07:03] <elfy> ;)
[07:07] <Unit193> I've been 'missing' that package for a long time.  It's simply a meta, just depends on others.
[07:08] <elfy> yep - it's been installed on my systems for only as long as it takes to start synaptic since a long time
[08:46] <ahren> Hi I am wondering what is the lightest xubuntu ubuntu i have an older laptop

[09:28] <loz1> hi, mouse scroll does not work in evince and works in all other programs, is there any fix for it?
=== ochosi_ is now known as ochosi
[09:42] <ochosi> loz1: there is a bug with gtk3 and scrolling in xubuntu 13.10, i can't remember the solution to that though now :/
[09:49] <loz1> ochosi: i found GDK_CORE_DEVICE_EVENTS=1, how can i set this var system-wide?
[09:49] <ochosi> try "export GDK_CORE_DEVICE_EVENTS=1"
[09:50] <loz1> i mean exporting in my .zshrc does not help when other apps (browsers, etc) run evince
[09:50] <ochosi> if it works then, create a session startup item that executes that line
[09:50] <ochosi> not sure about that tbh
[09:51] <ochosi> you can possibly integrate that var in session loading somehoow
[09:51] <ochosi> but as i've never done this myself, i'd also have to google it ;)
[09:51] <loz1> ochosi: hm, did you fixed that bug in your system?
[09:52] <ochosi> nope, somehow i don't have that bug
[09:52] <ochosi> i've only heard about it
[10:08] <Unit193> ochosi: Overlay scrollbars?
[10:09] <ochosi> Unit193: is it only connected to overlay-scrollbars? i couldn't remember...
[10:09] <ochosi> loz1: ^
[10:09] <ochosi> loz1: so in case you're using the overlay-scrollbars, probably stop using them ;)
[10:21] <loz1> what
[10:21] <loz1> how?)
[12:48] <Meerkat> is there any ETA on the volume button fix on 13.10?

[14:21] <Meerkat> bingo, you add the indicator plugin to the panel. Is that what you mean by 'taskbar'?
[14:21] <bingo> yes. i added but i only see volume and envelope
[14:21] <bingo> when i do

[16:04] <ke1v3y> Hello
[16:05] <ke1v3y> I had a question I was hoping that someone could provide some insight into.
[16:07] <Nyankiyoshi> Yes ? ^^
[16:07] <Nyankiyoshi> !ask
[16:07] <ubottu> Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience
[16:07] <ke1v3y> I apologize; first time on IRC for Xubuntu :)
[16:08] <ke1v3y> So I'm running 12.04 and experiencing vertical lines on many icons across all programs. I'm guessing it is related to my graphics card, but I was hoping to find some resolution.
[16:14] <ke1v3y> The PC is an old Compaq Presario 6010US, with an equally old AMD AGP graphics card.
