| CyborgCygnus | How would I fix Light Locker? I had trouble with it locking during media playback in the alpha & beta's so I did a complete reinstall once the stable official release came out, I still get the same problem. It will lock the pc during media playback & keep playing it, despite my settings to not do so. | 00:13 |
|---|---|---|
| abitz | CyborgCygnus: what settings? | 00:18 |
| CyborgCygnus | abitz, Just wondering if it's possible to make light-locker do what it's supposed to in 14.04. There isn't other settings in xubuntu that would prevent the pc from locking while playing back media? Would I need to perhaps run the software/apps with gksudo to allow it to prevent the screen saver & sleep mode? | 00:21 |
| === OutOfControl is now known as benonsoftware | ||
| cyborgcygnus | xscreensaver seems to lock my pc when media is still playing as well, surely there must be another setting somewhere outside of any screensaver to prevent locking, sleep, turning off the monitor when I'm watching a movie | 01:01 |
| Kekai | yes | 01:01 |

| kdeder | I tried xubuntu 14.04 on live usb but there's no gnome disk manager anywhere in the menu? Why?!? | 03:55 |
| cfhowlett | kdeder because xubuntu doesn't USE gnome disk manager?? | 03:56 |

| gry | With oxygen theme installed, xfce theme scollbars have mess with scrollbars arrows. The packages conflict. | 11:15 |
| gry | There is also a problem, which I didn't yet identify the cause of -- the Xfce-* themes all have garbage with evince (a gtk3 app I think?). "FileEditViewGo" menuitems lack spacing as do many other things. | 11:16 |
| gry | Please help me to properly report or solve both these issues. | 11:17 |
| xubuntu152 | hi is there a linux version or an HP ipaq RX3715? | 11:21 |
| brainwash | gry: the Xfce-* themes don't support recent gtk3 versions I'd assume | 11:29 |
| gry | ok, can you tell me again which themes 14.04 is shipped with please? it would be nice for me to nuke the broken lot | 11:30 |
| brainwash | the themes provided by the packages "shimmer-themes" should all work and look nice | 11:30 |
| brainwash | greybird is one of them | 11:30 |
| gry | why the broken themes are in the repos is a question too - people install them and see an unusable app, not only ugly | 11:30 |
| gry | ok | 11:31 |
| brainwash | well, these Xfce themes are provided by the Xfce project I think | 11:31 |
| brainwash | so they are packaged and shipped by xubuntu automatically | 11:31 |
| gry | they don't ship distros, they probably don't need to make things consistent with "recent gtk3 versions" | 11:32 |
| gry | but I'm not sure | 11:32 |
| brainwash | right | 11:32 |
| gry | so I'd probably nuke broken themes from the repos at the moment | 11:32 |
| brainwash | feel free to do so | 11:32 |
| gry | and tell them about the issues | 11:32 |
| brainwash | but it's not a big deal after all :) | 11:33 |
| gry | it's something I can identify and resolve - it is quite broken atm | 11:34 |
| brainwash | it's a common problem with gtk3 themes | 11:34 |
| brainwash | they need to be kept up-to-date, every new release of gtk3 breaks or changes something | 11:35 |
| gry | ah | 11:40 |
| gry | Shimmer is such a wonderful project. | 11:48 |

| xubuntu250 | I was installing the latest update for 13.10 when my laptop froze up. I restarted it and now I get a message that says: Fatal error: token too large, exceeds YYLMAX. I can't get a terminal to come up and I can't get to anything else for that matter. Is there a way of fixing this without having to do a fresh install of the OS? Thanks. | 18:24 |
| paolo | you could try start a live cd, mount your disk partition/s and look at the log files for more info | 18:27 |
| paolo | just an idea.. | 18:27 |
| xubuntu250 | I'm not sure how to do that. I'm pretty much a novice at this stuff. | 18:29 |
| xubuntu250 | How do I do that when I can't get anything to boot? | 18:30 |
| paolo | you should set your bios to boot from cd/dvd, then put the live cd into and go | 18:30 |
| Unit193 | You can also try to edit the grub command line and boot directly to a TTY, and get more logging output too. | 18:30 |
| paolo | xubuntu should mount automatically your disk partitions (not sure though) | 18:30 |
| xubuntu250 | I can't get to the bios. that's part of the problem. | 18:31 |
| paolo | logs are placed in /var/log | 18:31 |
| Unit193 | paolo: Meant while it's booting to see where it's wedged. | 18:31 |
| xubuntu250 | No bios access and can't get to grub command line. | 18:31 |
| paolo | xubuntu250, if you have a 2nd disk install xubuntu and boot from there, then mount the disk containing the broken os and you should be able to access to the logs | 18:34 |
| paolo | btw, i wonder why you can't access to the bios | 18:35 |
| xubuntu250 | I've been wondering about that myself. Unfortunately have second disk to use. | 18:39 |
| milan | hello | 18:41 |
| xubuntu250 | I don't have a copy of the OS other than the one I have running on my laptop. No CD or USB versions. | 18:48 |
| paolo | xubuntu250: you don't strictly need another copy, it's enough if you have a 2nd computer/laptop, attach the broken os there and run the live cd | 18:50 |
| xubuntu250 | I don't have another laptop available. I'm currently chatting to you from my phone. | 18:53 |
| paolo | i'm short of ideas, ask a friend for the laptop ;) | 18:56 |
| xubuntu250 | I see. Ok, thanks for trying. | 18:57 |
| paolo | it sounds weird such a bad breakage due to installing the latest updates | 18:59 |
| paolo | i'm more inclined to think of hardware issues | 18:59 |
| wishart | Hello folks | 22:09 |
| wishart | A couple of recent software updates for xubuntu involved having to reboot. Is this normal? Was the kernel being updated? | 22:10 |
| FernandoBasso | Hey folks. I installed xubuntu-desktop on my wife's "ubuntu" machine. How to remove the "global menu" (or whatever it is called) from xfce4-panel? | 22:11 |
| wishart | No one seems to know the answer to our questions. Same as before. Waste of time coming in here. | 22:17 |
| Unit193 | FernandoBasso: indicator-appmenu, I think it was? | 22:17 |
| Alex_______ | Hello! | 22:18 |
| FernandoBasso | Unit193: Also, I would like to know how to completely uninstall ubuntu-desktop. | 22:19 |
| FernandoBasso | I use arch, and it is so damn clean and easy to try other window managers and desktop environments. | 22:20 |
| Unit193 | There used to be a way to do that, but it's not updated now. | 22:20 |
| FernandoBasso | xfce runs amazingly here. | 22:20 |
| Unit193 | !purexfce | 22:20 |
| ubottu | If you want to remove all !KDE and !Gnome packages and have a default !Xubuntu system follow the instructions here « http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purexfce » | 22:20 |
| FernandoBasso | Wow! That is cool! Thanks. | 22:21 |
| Unit193 | But, it hasn't been updated recently at all. :/ | 22:21 |
| Alex_______ | guys.. I just installed xubuntu on an intel nuc ... I removed some software I don;t need like documents viewer and music apps... now the desktop it's empty and nothing get's loaded:( | 22:21 |
| FernandoBasso | Unit193: Yeah, I can't event get to a display manager anymore. | 22:33 |
| Unit193 | Install xubuntu-desktop again, or just pull in lightdm-gtk-greeter (which will pull in lightdm if it's missing.) | 22:34 |
| FernandoBasso | I did, but when the display manager should show up, the monitor just turns off. I can only get to a tty. :D | 22:37 |

| Alex_______ | so no one has a clue how to fix the xubuntu desktop not showing anything on it? | 22:38 |
| climbNmaintain | What do you mean by not showing anything on it? | 22:41 |
| Alex_______ | i uninstalled some programs ... games and media and the desktop it's empty just the wallpaper:) | 22:43 |
| Alex_______ | i can ALT+F2 on it and it brings the application finder | 22:43 |
| climbNmaintain | Sounds like you need to re install XFCE perhaps? | 22:46 |
| climbNmaintain | Can you get to a CLI? | 22:47 |
| Alex_______ | yes | 22:48 |
| climbNmaintain | aptitude install xfce4 | 22:52 |
| climbNmaintain | this actually might be a better option: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop | 22:53 |

| knome | have you tried booting with an older kernel (from before the upgrade)? | 23:23 |
| climbNmaintain | It was not an upgrade, I made a clean install of Xubuntu 14.04 | 23:25 |
| climbNmaintain | But no, I have not tried anything like that. | 23:25 |
| knome | right, sorry, i somehow thought it was an upgrade... | 23:28 |
| knome | i looked around a bit, and it looks like kernel stuff | 23:28 |
| knome | well, potentially.. | 23:28 |
| climbNmaintain | from the little I read from doing google-fu, the "bad block blah blah blah" part of the error might suggest the drive is dead? but it happens to all 4 drives so...yeah | 23:28 |
| Unit193 | Hrm, thought there was a thunar-volman thing. | 23:28 |
| Unit193 | I suppose the UUIDs are correct as well? | 23:30 |
| climbNmaintain | UUIDs were pasted from sudo blkid | 23:33 |
| climbNmaintain | They worked on ubuntu 14.04 but vanilla was too intense for this box which is getting up there so I decided to go with Xubuntu over opensuse up until now.... lol | 23:36 |
| climbNmaintain | Is it hopeless you think? | 23:40 |
