[00:05] hello everybody, I think that I have found out a bug in Xubuntu 14.04 [00:05] it is related to the point where i have to choose a users password [00:06] but maybe i am doing something wrong, so is there anybody who has got some time to help me here? === general_failure is now known as Guest93405 [00:15] xubuntu-tester, cli or gui? [00:16] what does cli mean? [00:16] command line [00:16] with gui [00:16] during the installation process i am choosing a password [00:16] Not sure I can help but what is the question? [00:16] when i choose the special character " _ " then its not possible to login [00:17] it only happens with xubuntu and lubuntu [00:17] ubuntu or linux mint works fine with a password containing the character _ [00:17] now i chose a very short password in xubuntu just to login [00:17] then i configured everything how it should be (german language and keyboard input) [00:17] my inputs work just fine as they shoukd [00:18] should' [00:18] so when i now want to add a new user (with gui) and choose again a password with " _ " [00:18] then the login is not possible [00:18] in this case i chose "123_45" as a test password [00:19] so when i logg off and try to login with the user2 and the password "123_45" the login is not possible [00:19] the same problem appears in lubuntu [00:19] but not in ubuntu [00:20] try logging in like this for kicks 123\_45 see if that works [00:22] ok, i created a 4th account and used that password [00:22] for info: i have a german keyboard layout [00:22] ill now logg of and then come back again [00:22] see you soon [00:24] ok, im back again. it tells me wrong password, try again [00:25] ok [00:25] shall i choose something like 123Abc? [00:26] im pretty sure that this would work [00:26] everything works, but not when i use some special characters [00:26] I know that it never works when i choose " _ " [00:30] try that [00:30] you mean 123Abc [00:30] ? [00:32] ok, im gonna try it with 123Abc [00:33] info: i do it with the gui again. "settings"->"users"->"add"->"username"->password" [00:33] now i logg off and try it [00:34] back again [00:34] 123Abc works perfectly [00:34] so I was able to create a secondary user with that password [00:34] works fine === general_failure_ is now known as general_failure [00:50] no more suggestions? [00:50] it only works fine with this simple password 123Abc i would never use [00:50] but when it comes to special characters it does not work [00:51] is it a bug or just something i have to reconfigure? === general_failure is now known as Guest23565 [00:59] sorry at work. [00:59] I don't think it is a bug but I couldn't find anything on google about using an _ in a password for xubuntu [00:59] try it in a the cli [00:59] useradd test1 [00:59] passwd test1 [01:00] abc_123 [01:00] it will prompt you twice [01:05] ok, ill try now [01:20] I logout with the "Save the session", but I can login anymore, it just show the login window time and times again. Xubuntu 14.04 LTS Xfce4. How should I do to login my computer? THX [01:59] Hi all.

I canot print, I keep getting this message: there is a missing print filter for printer Stylus-DX4800. What am I missing? [10:14] Hi. How do I install iwl4965 module please, it is gone after updating. [10:15] gry2_: have you tried using sudo modprobe ? [10:15] well_laid_lawn: Empty output. [10:16] modprobe does have a verbose switch -v [10:16] well_laid_lawn: Empty output with -v too. [10:16] normally no news is good news - check with lsmod | grep iwl [10:16] gry2_: linux-image-extra-3.13.0-24-generic (the current kernel) should have it. [10:17] (which is installed from the meta, linux-generic.) [10:17] Unit193: I am on 3.13.0-24-generic. well_laid_lawn: https://pastee.org/h7g22 [10:17] looks like it loaded [10:18] Are all 4 of them loaded? [10:18] Mhmm. [10:18] "lsmod is a trivial program which nicely formats the contents of the /proc/modules, showing what kernel [10:18] modules are currently loaded." [10:19] I'll assume it's normal for it to show no output then? I think it showed version and few things when I did modprobe, before. [10:46] is this also a place to ask something about Thunar? [10:47] kostex sure ask [10:49] thanks, well it's something general and I guess it applies to more filemanagers.. but when in Detailed Mode and the directory listing is 1 screen or more, you've got no space to 'right-click' an empty area... is there a way to this?

[16:02] goneeuro: well its a windows thing :( [16:02] you can try wine, but i dont think it will run good [16:04] Any time I want to resize a window, it has to be from the upper corners. I'm able to do so on the lower corners, but the tolerance is annoyingly small (1 pixel maybe). Is there a way to adjust the resize or window border size? [16:04] I couldn't find anything in the settings. [16:06] pres and holt alt-key and then you can resize the window by holding the right mouse button and move in the direction you want to resize the window [16:17] Hello ppl, I switched to xubuntu from archbang a week ago and I'm having problems getting horizontal mouse scroll to work.

[21:23] uhhh, for torrenting..? [21:23] yes [21:23] I will be burning it onto a CD using an old Windows XP desktop PC [21:23] SamwiseGamgee: you should obtain the iso you want.. then, create the installation media [21:23] !download [21:23] Ubuntu installation CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com - Mirrors can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Mirrors - PLEASE use the !torrents to download !Trusty, and help keeping the servers' load low!

But I do know how to burn a CD [21:25] SamwiseGamgee: burning a CD *is* a way to create installation media. you will use the iso you obtain as the source, and a disc as the destination [21:26] I still need to choose the ISO encoding. there are way too many choices. I need to choose an ISO encoding for the latest imgburn or for an old Nero burner, using Windows XP [21:27] so, it probably needs to be an old ISO text encoding [21:27] I have no idea which ISO encoding to choose: there are about 100 choices [21:28] SamwiseGamgee: where did you get the torrent file? [21:28] but.. isos are binary files and aren't encoded as anything [21:28] I need to choose the text encoding [21:29] SamwiseGamgee: you shouldnt have to, friend.. where did you obtain the torrent? [21:29] SamwiseGamgee: what client are you using? where? and how? [21:30] KTorrent [21:30] SamwiseGamgee: why not use the normal download? it wont save you any bandwidth to use the torrent.. seems like you could save yourself lots of time and hassle here by using it [21:31] i use transmission.. i download the torrent file.. i open it with transmission.. i click through a few destination prompts and it downloads [21:31] I don´t know what a normal download is. But I am familiar with the ISO format from using Nero [21:31] SamwiseGamgee: a normal download is, just download it, *dont* bother with the torrent.. use.. [21:31] !download [21:31] Ubuntu installation CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com - Mirrors can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Mirrors - PLEASE use the !torrents to download !Trusty, and help keeping the servers' load low! [21:31] SamwiseGamgee: download directly [21:32] No, the nonrmal download is too complicated: there are about 100 files I need to download separately [21:32] SamwiseGamgee: im not suggesting you get anything other than an iso file to work with. just that you stop bothering with torrents [21:32] the Iso is just one big file, much easier [21:32] SamwiseGamgee: no, friend. there are not.. its the *same* iso [21:32] May be I used the wrong link, Iĺl try your link.... [21:33] SamwiseGamgee: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/14.04/release/xubuntu-14.04-desktop-i386.iso for 32bit [21:33] http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/14.04/release/xubuntu-14.04-desktop-amd64.iso for 64bit [21:33] oh, thatś better [21:33] SamwiseGamgee: torrent or direct download, you get the *same* iso file [21:34] is that the full version of xubuntu? 913 MB? [21:34] SamwiseGamgee: this is the *only* xubuntu version, friend [21:35] you can use a DVD, or usb stick.. [21:35] I got a 465 GB drive, AMD Athlon 64 processor 3200+, 2 Ghz and 1.41 GB of RAM, will that work with xubuntu? [21:36] very well [21:36] the full xubuntu version? [21:36] thanks [21:36] SamwiseGamgee: there is *only* the one version of xubuntu, friend.. there is no "full" version, vs lite.. and, those specs should support xubuntu fine [21:37] What is the point in testing it first? [21:37] to see if it meets your requirements [21:37] Can I use it with Netflix? [21:38] I got Silverlight for Ubuntu [21:38] there is a netflix viewer that works [21:39] For example, would thise command lines work on xubuntu: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:pipelight/stable Then, install Pipelight using the command: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install pipelight-multi [21:39] yes [21:39] Is that the viewer you were referring to? [21:40] only difference between Ubuntu and Xubuntu is the DE (desktop environment) [21:40] Iḿ using Kubuntu right now, but it is slow on the internet [21:40] no i'm referring to the compholio PPA with a customized Wine for Netflix [21:41] that's not usually a Kubuntu issue rather a communications issue [21:41] Iḿ usin wine right now, but I really need a clean install of my whole operating system [21:41] Iḿ ready to do it today [21:41] the custom Wine for Netflix? [21:42] backed up my files [21:42] No, just Wine [21:42] I just used it for BabasChess [21:42] not familiar with that program [21:46] thanks for your help [21:46] Goodbye [21:47] ok, good luck [21:49] hi [21:52] hello, may we help you?
