[00:14] Chrome works right [00:35] hey hey! has anyone found a solution to the whole blank screen after wake from suspend thing? [00:35] (14.04) [00:36] i installed a newer version of xfce4-power-manager from a patched PPA, but still get black screens [00:37] I ended up having to swap out light-locker for gnome-screensaver. [00:38] Seems to have cleared it up. [00:38] So, you can revert away from the ppa, restore the previous power manager. [00:40] i installed gnome-screensaver, but it doesn't show up in my xfce admin panel thing [00:40] do i have to uninstall light-locker for it to show up? [00:40] that's because gnome-screensaver doesn't have a config gui. [00:40] So, no icon in settings manager. [00:41] Just go into startup and change it from light-locker to gnome-screensaver [00:41] want to test it now? killall -9 light-locker and use alt-f2 to start gnome-screensaver. [00:42] If it works for you, then pull light-locker [00:44] can't find out how to configure gnome-screensaver though? [00:44] or does it just blank the screen depending on when my timers are set in power manager? [00:45] it's just a blanker [00:45] it blanks when the power manager tells it to. [00:45] Or when the system is locked. [00:45] It's pretty easy peasy, if you're not looking for pretty. [00:46] I would prefer to use light-locker, but it needs the kinks worked out, first. [00:46] i am a simple man [00:46] just tested it out, it shows my session for a split second on resume but does lock [00:46] so this is good enough until light-locker is patched! [00:46] thanks for your help dude [00:47] no prob. [00:47] if you want it to lock, that can be controlled in the power manager [00:48] If you're having an issue where the laptop is suspending on lid close, and you don't want that, you have to edit /etc/systemd/logind.conf [00:48] sweet, yeah i did some digging earlier and discovered i needed to edit logind.conf [00:49] nothing worse than suspending on lid close [00:49] just edit #LidSwitchIgnoreInhibited=yes to LidSwitchIgnoreInhibited=no [00:49] if you changed this line, #HandleLidSwitch=suspend, change it back. [00:50] Or, just remark it [00:50] Then all will be well. [00:50] oh, yeah, I changed that line [00:50] is that the wrong way to do it? [00:51] Not wrong, just a bit more dirty. [00:51] I find LidSwitchIgnoreInhibited=no to be power manager friendly. Gives you more control through the power manager. [00:51] easy, changed it around [00:52] thanks for all the help [00:52] test it out and let us know., [00:52] no prob [00:52] Hello [00:52] I'm here looking for some info from everyone [00:53] Just ask your question. If someone knows an answer, they'll chime in. [00:53] At the present time I have Bodhi Linux on my old pc and I'd like to know which is small in terms of RAM and Hard drive between them? [00:54] My pc is about 7-8 years of age, Dell Dimension B110, 2.53GHz, 1 GB of RAM and about 80GB of Hard drive, Intel Celeron R cpu [00:56] Basically, I'm just looking for an easier Linux distro. My pc used to have windows XP on. Just glad I got rid of XP [00:57] The laptop that I am currently using is from 04, running Xubuntu 14.04 pretty good. [00:58] hello :) [00:58] Mine is a desktop [00:58] Hi Guest253 [00:58] fresh install 14.04 running very well on my laptop [00:59] i like it [00:59] ok [00:59] it'll run it fine [00:59] RAM will be fine with midori and keeping the tab count low [01:00] Xubu uses Midori? [01:01] Tab count? [01:02] http://postimg.org/image/p141u8h9v/ [01:03] I guess I'll keep some reasearch about Xubu and a few other Linux distros [01:03] thanks [02:27] a ppa for plank? using 14.04 [03:20] I downloaded an updated driver for my legacy wireless card. How do I tell Xubuntu to load this new one on boot? [03:20] I have it in /lib/firmware [03:54] :) [05:05] hey fellas! how are you doing? [05:05] does any of you have an useful tutorial on how to update from xubuntu 13.10 to the 14.04? [05:06] hey [05:06] cant u just run th do-release-upgrade cmd [05:06] i'm new to xubuntu and i'm really excited to try this new version [05:06] mapp not until point release 14.04.1 [05:06] oh [05:06] mapp, i tried that but it didn't worked [05:07] should i download it and install it from a cd maybe? [05:07] vcamargo torrent 14.04. verify the ISO with md5sum. make a USB. verify the USB. boot your computer from USB. Install. [05:07] is that the only way? [05:07] cfhowlett_, thanks for that, but would you have any other alternative? [05:08] vcamargo wait until july and sudo apt-get do-release-upgrade [05:08] cfhowlett_, it would overwrite my current installation right? i do not intend to do so [05:08] cfhowlett_, oh, ok then [05:08] cfhowlett_, thanks! [05:08] vcamargo happy to help [05:09] cfhowlett_, is that the only way right? [05:09] vcamargo upgrade or clean install are your options. [05:09] cfhowlett_, i mean, wait for a new version and then use do-release-upgrade [05:10] vcamargo OR download the ISO now and clean install [05:10] do you know why do-release-upgrade is not working now? [05:11] is there any specific reason? [05:11] vcamargo because it doesn't kick in until point release 1 [05:13] cfhowlett_, right, thanks ;) [05:42] hi everyone [05:47] i need to know where can i find a list of supported notebooks for the xubunto operating system. i need this before try to install it because with an older version of ubunto i had problems with the display of my Packard Bell EasyNote LJ 65. Can someone help me? tks [06:00] Hello. [06:01] xubuntu463 dell xps 13 developer edition [06:02] I need help with xubuntu 14.04 lightdm login window. I have to change my uid to 201 because I use NFS and all other computers in the network have this uid for me. However, when I do this, the lightdm login no longer shows my username. [06:03] I tried editing /etc/lightdm/users.conf and set minimum-uid=100 but it didn't help. [06:03] It's annoying to have to select "Other" from the menu and type both your username and password every time the screen saver activates. [06:11] Can Xubuntu be true LTS? I think there was one that wouldn't let you stay LTS? [06:12] Name141 14.04 is LTS [06:12] Name141 and if it's LTS it STAYS lts ... [06:13] cfhowlett_: I think Lubuntu you can't stay LTS? [06:13] and have to roll ? [06:13] or I could be wrong [06:13] Name141 what do you mean "can't stay". LTS is LTS. that doesn't change [06:13] LTS stays that way === mapp is now known as mapps [06:20] you mean when the support expires? [06:30] Mkay [06:30] XFCE might be a little more harder to run on old system than Lubuntu? [06:40] XFCE runs pretty decent [06:41] lubuntu is quite a bit lighter [06:41] try it and see [06:42] lubuntu-desktop is the package [06:42] ah I done went and reinstalled [06:42] it was a new setup anyway [06:57] you can have multiple DE's on a single machine [06:57] then choose between them at login ; ubuntu-desktop, xubuntu-desktop, kubuntu-desktop etc [06:58] Yeah, but I didn't want to be using up more space [06:58] with a new install anyway [07:00] if space is at a premium there are smaller 'core' packages [07:00] ah not that much, 500 GB WD Blue I think is in the dell [07:01] I doubt there was worth messing with the 64 Bit OS vs 32 bit with an E2160 and 2 GBs of RAM? [07:02] might you upgrade ram sometime in the future? [07:03] there's really no reason to not run 64bit if your machine allows [07:04] another advantage to tje 'core' packages is they dont bring in multiple clients, office suites, etc [07:06] no, I'm not messing with DDR2 === mapp is now known as mapps [09:08] what Xfce theme looks better with Numix [09:08] oops it's numix [09:08] Lol [09:44] Hello [09:44] do environment variables get expanded in /etc/environment? [09:44] (i don't feel like rebooting to find out so i'm asking here =) ) [10:03] wtf my terminal key shortcut stopped working [10:03] not [10:06] Hi, I've having horrible booting times (2min), created bootchart, can someone take look at it please? http://i.imgur.com/iNP82Jl.png [10:08] bootchart is ugly [10:08] what to use instead? [10:09] systemd-analyze [10:09] systemd-analyze blame [10:09] but bootchart is also useful [10:10] ok, i'll use the blame thing, once give it 2min to boot :) [10:10] you don tneed [10:10] BoozeWooz: if you are using systemd you just run the command after booting [10:13] can you install stuff from the ubuntu repos in linux mint? [10:13] and/or in linux mint debian edition? [10:14] share: it says: "Systemd-analyze" command not found.. [10:17] BoozeWooz: ubuntu does not use proper systemd yet [10:19] there you go [10:20] and it's not Systemd [10:22] the bootchart looks very strange [10:22] theres a 75s delay before anything happens, its what conserns me mainly [10:23] can you also upload /var/log/dmesg? [10:25] www.pastebin.com/sxGVDaUS [10:26] ata1 from 6 second to 71second.. [10:26] indeed [10:27] maybe your hdd is not properly connected [10:27] can you install stuff from the ubuntu repos in linux mint and/or linux mint debian edition? [10:28] linux mint is basically ubuntu [10:28] its CD rom caddy, i put harddisk inside it, will check connections again, thanks for looking and helping! [10:28] the debian edition is based on debian, so it will cause trouble [10:29] BoozeWooz: at least we got a hint now :) [10:29] yes, in worst case i can recompile kernel and remove these annoying thing (to fail on 1st try) [10:39] gaah this bug again :( term windows (xfce4-terminal, rxvt, xterm) act as if the state of either CTRL key is inverted [10:40] though alt+delete doesn't do anything, and ctrl+alt+delete works as expected [10:40] the problem with Numix xfwm theme is nvidia [10:59] resetting my keyboard layout with xmodmap doesn't fix it, neither does choosing a layout in the xfce control panel [10:59] (i usually leave it to "use default" and set the keyboard layout with xmodmap) [11:13] delt: what does ctrl alt del [11:14] share: i mapped it to show the logout window [11:17] oh [11:24] hi to all! howto print a image with ristretto? === Ergo__Proxy is now known as Ergo_Proxy [11:32] assistente: not possible as of now [11:33] ok thx [11:34] you can use gthumb to print images [11:34] (needs to be installed manually in xubuntu 14.04) [11:35] or any web browser [12:47] hi, which mpc client can be integrated at the xubuntu sound indicator? [13:03] Hello, where I can find the option to disable the automatic lock/logout of the session on idle? Xubuntu 14.04 [13:05] LightLocker: [13:05] Automatically lock the session is set to never [13:11] counter_: I suggest that you test them all, it's not very likely that someone here knows an answer [13:13] I already tested several clients, none appeared at the indicator, is a manual add required? [13:14] if the clients don't support the required interface, then adding them manually won't help much [13:15] but it's still worth a try [13:16] btw are you talking about terminal based or graphical clients? [13:16] gui clients [13:20] all clients: http://mpd.wikia.com/wiki/Clients , I am not sure what this is, maybe what I need? "mpDris2 - Background client that exposes MPD to D-Bus via the MPRIS2 interface, e.g. for the gnome / ubuntu sound menu. " [13:21] exactly, that's needed [13:21] kjl [13:24] brainwash: you know where can I find this after install? [14:03] https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/featured/format:rss [14:04] I see an awful black background on that page with mediterranean light [14:23] hi [14:24] does anyone knows how can I backup the notes on xubuntu? [14:27] star_prone: .local/share/notes [14:29] I found it [14:29] thank you [14:30] anyone knows how can I make a bootable stick under xubuntu? [14:30] what app can I use? [14:30] I use unetbootin for my needs [14:30] in the repos [14:32] Or just dd the *ubuntu iso to the stick [14:34] Is there a difference in the power management settings between Ubuntu and Xubuntu 14.04? I just installed Xubuntu last night but my PC wont hibernate after inactivity, and the button is greyed/disabled. This feature did work with Ubuntu 14.04 however, so Im curious if I am missing a config setting somewhere? [15:08] swap? [16:02] I cant set my mouse sensivity under xubuntu, I tried user the xset commands but it does not work [16:02] Does anyone have suggestions^ [16:03] tried the mouse settings? [16:03] yeah in the GUI right? [16:03] I select the the device and and then try to modify the sensivity [16:03] But it does not have any effect [16:04] Actually the Acceleration parameter works fine [16:05] Its only the sensivity [16:05] Weird [16:06] ffafard: Is there anything special about your mouse (multiple wireless setup, keyboard and mouse use same connector, for example)? [16:07] Well, I use a KVM switch but both keyboard and mouse have their own USB port [16:08] And they are wired [16:09] Not a solution, but I'd suggest taking the kvm out of the picture. If things work then, we know it's something with the kvm and work from there. If not, then we look at something else. [16:09] one variable at a time :) [18:41] hi [18:41] hi! [18:41] I'm new on IRC chat... Firts, sorry for my english ;-( [18:42] Im trying to install xubuntu on my Acer Laptop! and it's horrible the UEFI system... [18:43] Can anybody help me a little? [18:44] !uefi [18:44] UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI [18:44] jorge: ^ [18:44] Thanks... I readed some info but I don't understand at well [18:45] At the moment, I disabled secure boot and the installation is finishing... [18:46] But later, I dont know what to do [18:48] The installation just end now... Im going to try... Thanks to all again... I hope to visit this channel again, I like it!! ;-) [18:49] jorge: ok, you are welcomed back. if you get a problem. or even if you succeed. happiness is good too. [19:59] chromium browser disappers when you switch workspaces [19:59] seems to be a bug going back a year or more any fix out there [20:21] Hi, does xubuntu use a "clipboard manager" ? [20:23] DomiX: Not like klipper under KDE so far i know. [20:24] ok, because I've an issue with capture and pasting into abiword it takes a long time http://bugzilla.abisource.com/show_bug.cgi?id=13637 [20:24] bugzilla.abisource.com bug 13637 in Copy/Paste "Paste screenshot from clipboard very slow" [Critical,New] [21:06] DomiX: diodon is a simple gtk clipboard manager [21:32] please how do i exit magnifier mode in xubuntu... i think i pressed some keys d my all screen changed the windows are controlled by mouse. Its like full screen but bigger [21:36] kingplusplus: I dont know what magnifier you have, but if it behaves like the on in compiz it may be controlled by the mouse wheel plus a modifier key. e.g. alt+wheel, ctrl+wheel, super+wheel or something like that. [21:38] David-A: i dont use compiz... i touch some key combinations mistakenly and i do not know them. screen just changed and i cant see full size of window not even the status bar above.... i have to move mouse up, down, left, to be able to see any part [21:43] kingplusplus: another hunch. ones upon a time, resolution changes could be performed with the + and - keys on the numeric keypad in combination with modifier keys, e.g ctrl-shift-minus or alt-ctrl-minus or alt-shift-minus or something like that. [21:45] David-A: fixed it by change resolution up and down [21:45] and back to normal [21:46] thanks for your concern though and attempted effort to help [21:48] kingplusplus: then there probably is a key combination to change resolution. but we will never know what it is. :) [22:18] [23:09] Hi! [23:09] Can you help me? [23:10] The windows loses title bar when maximixe them :/ [23:20] Anyone have a guide for using software raid and EFI with xubuntu 14.04? [23:21] nevermind, i solved it [23:21] chuyinr: and the solution was...? [23:24] and now we'll never know :( [23:45] anyone know how to hide a single indicator from the indicator panel? [23:45] redshift-gtk is getting on my nerves [23:46] sheer: just right click the plugin on the panel and go to properties and hide it from the list [23:46] or uninstall the indicator [23:46] it only hides all application indicators as a category, not individual applications [23:46] distinct from the notifications panel, which does allow blacklisting processes [23:48] sheer: right click on indicator plugin (it can be done :), Properties> Known indicators> click Hidden. [23:49] or go thru panel preferences>items [23:49] it seems to throw all applications in the one category: http://i.imgur.com/fytnC8h.png [23:50] ah, I see what you mean. [23:55] yup, didn't know it was an app indicator [23:55] although there is a way to hide even that [23:55] via an apparmor profile [23:55] if you're willing to go there
