[02:43] <xubuntu044> Hi. Can I ask a really quick and kind of stupid question?
[02:43] <Poisoned_Dragon> yup
[02:44] <xubuntu044> What do you call the gui file manager in xfce?
[02:44] <xubuntu044> I've been in Ubuntu, Kubuntu, and now Xubuntu
[02:45] <Poisoned_Dragon> thunar
[02:45] <xubuntu044> Theirs are dolphin and nautilus
[02:45] <Poisoned_Dragon> yup, in xfce it's thunar
[02:46] <xubuntu044> Ah, thunar! Thanks! :)
[03:01] <hoho> hello, would anyone happen to know how to customise the login-screen of xubuntu 14.04 ?
[03:02] <Poisoned_Dragon> one sec
[03:02] <hoho> okay.
[03:03] <Poisoned_Dragon> /etc/xdg/xdg-xubuntu/lightdm/lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf
[03:03] <hoho> Yes, I did try that
[03:03] <hoho> But only certain changes are accepted.
[03:03] <Poisoned_Dragon> What are you trying to change?
[03:03] <hoho> the theme
[03:04] <hoho> I can change font size, but not the theme
[03:04] <Poisoned_Dragon> And you're editing the file with root privilege?
[03:04] <hoho> Yes
[03:04] <Poisoned_Dragon> Are you putting your themes in /usr/share/themes?
[03:04] <hoho> I'll check...
[03:06] <hoho> yep
[03:06] <hoho> They are there
[03:06] <Poisoned_Dragon> Then it must depend on the theme
[03:06] <hoho> Font size changes are accepted
[03:06] <hoho> Okay
[03:07] <hoho> I tried NOX and darklooks, but neither works...
[03:08] <Poisoned_Dragon> link me, so that I can see them.
[03:08] <hoho> Sorry, bit of beginner, how does one link?
[03:09] <Poisoned_Dragon> I just wanted you to copy and paste me a link
[03:09] <Poisoned_Dragon> is it this? http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/ECSTATiCA+(formerly+NOX)?content=105349
[03:10] <hoho> yes
[03:11] <Poisoned_Dragon> it only has gtk-2.0 in it's folder.
[03:11] <Poisoned_Dragon> I dunno if lightdm uses that.
[03:11] <Poisoned_Dragon> The default theme, Greybird has other schemes.
[03:12] <hoho> Okay. Other schemes? How do I specify those?
[03:12] <Poisoned_Dragon> I would try Adwaita, just to see if the theme changes. If it does, Then you'll know that you need a theme that has a scheme that lightdm can use.
[03:12] <Poisoned_Dragon> in the conf file
[03:12] <Poisoned_Dragon> You don't specify the scheme. The theme folder has to have it.
[03:12] <hoho> okay. I'll test it
[03:13] <Poisoned_Dragon> I think lightdm might be gtk-3 now
[03:13] <Poisoned_Dragon> Nox, doesn't have a scheme folder for that.
[03:13] <Poisoned_Dragon> Chances are, the other theme you're testing won't either.
[03:22] <Poisoned_Dragon> wb
[03:22] <Poisoned_Dragon> So, what happened?
[03:22] <hoho> It worked!
[03:22] <Poisoned_Dragon> Told ya
[03:22] <hoho> So why exactly?
[03:22] <hoho> gtk 2 vs. gtk 3 ?
[03:22] <Poisoned_Dragon> again, I don't think lightdm uses gtk-2
[03:22] <Poisoned_Dragon> And Nox only has that folder in it's theme folder
[03:23] <hoho> I see.
[03:23] <Poisoned_Dragon> Greybird and Adwaita have gtk-3 and other schemes.
[03:23] <Poisoned_Dragon> So, you'll have to experiment some.
[03:23] <hoho> Okay, so they are compatible with lightdm.
[03:23] <Poisoned_Dragon> yup
[03:23] <Poisoned_Dragon> After all, greybird is the default theme
[03:23] <hoho> True.
[03:24] <Poisoned_Dragon> I would have to play with it myself, to be sure.
[03:24] <Poisoned_Dragon> I dunno if it's a gtk-3 thing, or metacity, or what.....
[03:24] <hoho> Another question - can one change the language of the login? For a French system it still says 'log on". No big deal, just, well not français...
[03:24] <Poisoned_Dragon> I just know that Nox won't work for lightdm
[03:25] <hoho> Okay no nox. Such a nice theme though...
[03:25] <hoho> I like Darklooks too.
[03:25] <Poisoned_Dragon> Link me for darklooks
[03:26] <hoho> https://www.google.ca/search?q=darklooks+theme&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=2nl5U9f5I4ynyASX-YCoAQ&ved=0CAYQ_AUoAQ&biw=1280&bih=688
[03:31] <Poisoned_Dragon> I found it
[03:31] <Poisoned_Dragon> It's part of gnome extra themes
[03:32] <hoho> does that mean it won't work with lightdm?
[03:32] <Poisoned_Dragon> are you savvy with screenshots and image paste websites.
[03:32] <hoho> With instructions....
[03:32] <Poisoned_Dragon> I'd like to see the folder contents of Darklooks.
[03:32] <Poisoned_Dragon> wait... lemme just install the package.
[03:32] <hoho> Okay.
[03:33] <hoho> What OS are you using?
[03:34] <Poisoned_Dragon> xubuntu
[03:34] <Poisoned_Dragon> I'm getting the package now.
[03:34] <hoho> Okay. I didn't come pre-installed?
[03:34] <hoho> *It
[03:35] <Poisoned_Dragon> nope
[03:36] <hoho> hmm
[03:36] <hoho> what release?
[03:36] <Poisoned_Dragon> 14.04
[03:36] <Poisoned_Dragon> btw, Darklooks only has a gtk-2 folder.
[03:36] <Poisoned_Dragon> Not lightdm compatible.
[03:36] <hoho> Okay.
[03:37] <Poisoned_Dragon> You could Always try MediterraneanDarkest.
[03:37] <hoho> Hmm. I'll take a look
[03:38] <hoho> Not pre-installed...
[03:38] <Poisoned_Dragon> Nope.
[03:38] <hoho> Where did you grab Darklooks from?
[03:38] <Poisoned_Dragon> Gotta get it from gnome looks
[03:38] <hoho> sudo apt-get ?
[03:39] <Poisoned_Dragon> http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/?content=156782
[03:44] <hoho> sudo extract the tar to themes?
[03:45] <Poisoned_Dragon> I suppose you could do that.
[03:46] <Poisoned_Dragon> I usually open the tar in archive manager and pick and choose.
[03:46] <Poisoned_Dragon> Less to go wrong.
[03:47] <hoho> But doesn't the theme need to be under usr/share/themes/ to be used?
[03:53] <hoho> Thanks for your help! Bye.
[03:54] <Poisoned_Dragon> heh, guess he got it
[07:53] <boeri> Hiyas all,
[07:55] <boeri> since i upgraded 2 trusty tahr my logout window has changed. a new button occured for a sleep or standby mode (my desktop is german) but neither of the 2 buttons work. Does anyone have experienced this too?
[09:10] <emmanuel0791> Hello , question: Is it a common issue that the LAN connection sometimes works and sometimes not?
[10:04] <donc3> Hi! I have some warnings and errors in the dmesg output could someone help me???
[10:04] <donc3> this is the output of my dmesg
[10:04] <donc3> http://paste.ubuntu.com/7487790/
[10:37] <gry> It is interesting that I have /usr/bin/X11/xflock4 and /usr/bin/xflock4, they are identical but not symlinked. Is that intentional?
[11:44] <gry> And what do I use to lock an xfce screen with lightdm? light-locker exists, but not in Ubuntu repos.
[11:45] <ochosi> gry: it does, from 14.04 onwards
[11:45] <gry> Okay, thanks.
[11:45] <ochosi> np
[11:45] <gry> I'm on 12.04 now, so I will try to update.
[11:45] <ochosi> gry: FYI, xubuntu uses it by default in 14.04 ;)
[12:14] <meek_geek> bookman, HI
 hi)
[12:18] <meek_geek> sup bookman
[14:05] <simpleuser> Hi there. When pressing backspace in thunar it goes to previous location. I’d like it to go to parent location. Where can I change this behaviour ?
[14:23] <simpleuser> Found ! :) http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/23998/how-to-set-up-backspace-to-go-up-instead-of-back-in-thunar
[15:27] <kupo_> herro room
[15:27] <kupo_> I sadly woke up to a kernel panic screen this morning :(
[15:27] <kupo_> I didn't update kernel yesterday or anything though. strange.
 that haapens each boot?
[15:28] <bookman> happens*
[15:29] <kupo_> first time it has ever happened.
[15:29] <kupo_> with linux. never once woke up to an error.
[15:29] <kupo_> I'll just see if it happens again. probably won.t
[15:29] <kupo_> it mentioned hdmi and intel. I do use hdmi
[16:04] <LonelyDanbo> My PlayStation 2 gamepad USB adapter seems to have mapped the controls to move my mouse cursor among other things, and I don't know what's doing this to unbind it.
[16:05] <LonelyDanbo> I'm pretty sure I didn't install anything for that. no search results in installed packages for gamepad or joystick
[16:06] <LonelyDanbo> It didn't do this in my Debian installation.
[16:06] <bazhang> !info joystick
[16:07] <LonelyDanbo> I installed something called jstest-gtk which does calibration and remapping, but it just has the controls mapped to like "AXIS_X" or something.
[16:08] <LonelyDanbo> ABS_X
[16:09] <LonelyDanbo> and the buttons are just BTN_THUMB , but when I press them I get like pasting from my clipboard or mouse double-clicking. so it's being remapped somewhere else.
[16:13] <LonelyDanbo> hm... I seem to have joystick package installed. ... where do I find the device name that it needs?
[16:13] <bazhang> try lsusb
[16:14] <LonelyDanbo> ah, thanks.
[16:16] <LonelyDanbo> hm... I found it, but it's not taking the "005" as a device even though that's the device.
[16:16] <LonelyDanbo> Bus 003 Device 005: ID 0810:0001 Personal Communication Systems, Inc. Dual PSX Adaptor
[16:17] <LonelyDanbo> jscal -t 005 just gets me jscal: can't open joystick device: No such file or directory
[16:18] <LonelyDanbo> hm. man page says it wants <device-NAME>
[16:19] <LonelyDanbo> jscal Personal Communication Systems, Inc. Dual PSX Adaptor
[16:19] <bazhang>  0810:0001  <---- what about that
[16:19] <LonelyDanbo> gets me "jscal: missing device name"
[16:19] <LonelyDanbo> nope. no such file or directory
[16:22] <LonelyDanbo> oh man I found a webpage while saerching for a settings file that has a section "Disable Joystick From Controlling Mouse"
[16:23] <bazhang> Twin USB Joystick <--- what about that
[16:24] <LonelyDanbo> hm but I don't have an xorg.conf.d folder...
[16:24] <LonelyDanbo> nope, bazhang. missing device name.
[16:25] <bazhang> thats odd
[16:27] <LonelyDanbo> hm. another page mentioned a /dev/input/js0
[16:28] <LonelyDanbo> got it. jscal /dev/input/js0
[16:37] <LonelyDanbo> hm.... I'm a little lost now. calibration hasn't changed anything.
[16:38] <LonelyDanbo> this webppage I found talks about that /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ folder that I don't have.
[16:39] <LonelyDanbo> in a later section it says "make sure you have xf86-input-joystick installed" but Xubuntu doesn't have that in the package manager.
[16:39] <LonelyDanbo> well it is a page for arch linux... but it was talking about XFCE so I thought maybe...
[16:40] <bazhang> you might try qjoypad as well
[16:40] <bazhang> http://linuxaria.com/article/how-to-use-a-playstation-2-joypad-with-linux
[16:41] <bazhang> !info qjoypad
[16:41] <LonelyDanbo> Hm.
[16:41] <bazhang> nice gui on that
[16:43] <LonelyDanbo> I don't think any of these programs are going to work, as the mapping to the mouse cursor is happening in spite of them.
[16:43] <LonelyDanbo> I gotta find a settings file somewhere.
[16:43] <bazhang> I'd not give up quite so easily
[16:44] <bazhang> I spent a good deal of time setting one up, and once it was done, played a *tonne* of games with it
[16:45] <LonelyDanbo> hm. looks like qjoypad won't run without a restart
[16:45] <LonelyDanbo> Debian doesn't have this problem, but Debian's out of date with the emulator (among other things} and so getting the emulator running is my problem over there.
[16:48] <LonelyDanbo> cat /proc/bus/input/devices gives Handlers=event15 js1  and I bet event15 is the problem.
[16:49] <LonelyDanbo> oh wait, event14 for js0. event15 is for js1
[16:57] <LonelyDanbo> brb. gonna restart.
[17:07] <LonelyDanbo> "Uninstall xserver-xorg-input-joystick.   It's a package to control the mouse with the joystick. "
[17:07] <LonelyDanbo> hm. now the gamepad's not working at all.
[17:08] <LonelyDanbo> I don't know why the light on the adapter wouldn't turn on though when I plug it in.
[17:09] <LonelyDanbo> hm. lsusb still lists the device.
[17:09] <LonelyDanbo> oh there's the light
[17:13] <LonelyDanbo> well, it's working under the emulator. I guess uninstalling that one package was all I needed.
[17:13] <LonelyDanbo> thanks for bearing with me and trying to find the solution.
[17:17] <bazhang> via qjoypad?
[17:17] <bazhang> augh he quit
[17:28] <Kekai> Can Ubuntu be ran off aa netbook with a 1GB of ram?
[17:29] <pleia2> Kekai: this is the Xubuntu support channel, and Xubuntu can
[17:29] <pleia2> Kekai: http://xubuntu.org/getxubuntu/requirements/
[17:31] <Kekai> I have Xubuntu I wanted to try Ubuntu Through terminal then delete using the Pure XCFE website
[17:31] <baizon> Kekai: i dont think it will run well, but thats my opinion
[17:32] <Kekai> This is why I cant wait for autumn
[17:33] <pleia2> Kekai: you should really ask in #ubuntu
[17:33] <pleia2> not here :)
[17:35] <baizon> Kekai: what happens in autmn?
[17:35] <Kekai> I posted to offtopic
[17:37] <bazhang> Kekai, here is fine, as is #ubuntu , but with that minimal amount of ram, you really might try lubuntu
[17:37] <bazhang> lubuntu-desktop for the full suite, install, then logout, select at login
[17:38] <Kekai> I been using Xubuntu just fine
[17:38] <bazhang> ok
[17:38] <Kekai> SInce november I been using 13.10
[17:38] <Kekai> then upgraded fine to 1404 without problems
[17:38] <Kekai> my PC seems to run cooler in 14.04 lts
[17:39] <bazhang> you can certainly try ubuntu, but I think it would be very slow
[17:39] <Kekai> its only till autumn till I get my 12GB ram, 1TB laptop
[17:39] <bazhang> that will run anything
[17:39] <Kekai> Then I dual boot either Ubuntu and windows
[17:39] <Kekai> or Xubuntu/Windows
[17:40] <Kekai> Maybe the later because I dont like the look the launcher in Ubuntu
[17:40] <bazhang> so use gnome-shell , not unity
[18:08] <heineken12> xubuntu, plz help
[18:08] <heineken12> I installed gparted and formatted an external drive to btfs but now i cant write to it
[19:24] <meek_geek> Slesa, hi
[20:02] <aleXUBUNTU> Hello
[20:03] <aleXUBUNTU> i have one question, i'm in windows 8, i burned XUBUNTU 14 in a DVD, and when i restart the system pressing F12 to BOOT DVD nothing happen
[20:03] <aleXUBUNTU> whats wrong?
[20:29] <Inoki> Yo, came to ask, anything gonna happen with the screensaver turning off sound when it locks the screen? Really annoying....
[20:30] <TheSheep> Inoki: did you report a bug?
[20:30] <TheSheep> Inoki: if no then no, nothing is goign to happen
[20:30] <Inoki> TheSheep: nope, but guess I'll have to. Do you know, is it safe to simply do a sudo apt-get purge light-locker && sudo apt-get install xscreensaver?
[20:31] <TheSheep> Inoki: no idea, I didn't upgrade yet myself
[20:32] <Inoki> TheSheep: Technically, on Webupd8 they mentioned that those running GNOME can simply try out light-locker by installing it and removing it simply returns to GNOME screensaver.
[20:38] <Inoki> Anybody here with experience on how to get GNOME screen saver running under Xubuntu?
[20:38] <Inoki> Or does a simple install do the trick.
[20:38] <TheSheep> just install it and enable in the sessions and startup in settings
[20:39] <Inoki> Ok, coz I really think adding a development release (light-locker) to a stable branch was a mistake. Thanks.
[20:45] <starrats> Inoki does your cursor/kb lockup at startup/reboot?
[20:46] <Inoki> starrats: nope.
[20:46] <starrats> ah ok
[21:57] <Kekai> My network Manager is gone and I cant connect to the internet.
[22:02] <Kekai> Please help
[22:03] <knome> Kekai, please remember to keep patient; we're all volunteers here. you can search in ubuntu forums, askubuntu etc while you wait
[23:42] <m1chael> i'm plagued by a bug in 14.04 where when i close my screen, the laptop never recovers.. its listed as critical and the fix seems to be working for some... once a proper fix is found, what happens? will the updates magically fix this?
[23:44] <meek_geek> hi
