| xubuntu045 | does anybody know how to turn off the login scr in xubuntu | 00:48 |
| holstein | !cli | 00:48 |
| ubottu | The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal or type in it: man intro | 00:48 |
| holstein | !text | 00:48 |
| ubottu | To start your system in text-only mode append 'text' (without the quotes) to the kernel line in the grub menu. You can access the grub menu by pressing Esc (Grub legacy) or Shift (Grub2) during boot. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Text%20Mode | 00:48 |
| holstein | ^ thats the one | 00:48 |
| xubuntu045 | pls. how do I turn off the login screeen | 00:51 |
| holstein | xubuntu045: the link above shows how to boot to text only mode, friend | 00:52 |
| holstein | xubuntu045: you would read, and enable it, but adding the kernel line in the grub menu.. | 00:52 |
| holstein | by adding* | 00:52 |
| xubuntu045 | I will try that, thanks a lot holstein | 00:53 |

| marsupapu | Is there any way to set panel to autohide so, that it only hides when window covers it? | 07:05 |
| deshipu | marsupapu: no | 07:08 |
| marsupapu | That is too sad. | 07:09 |
| deshipu | marsupapu: but I think I manageed to set it so that it can be covered by otherbwindows | 07:09 |
| === baizon_ is now known as baizon | ||
| marsupapu | Maybe, but that isn't what I want. In gnome 2, if I remember correctly, was a function (bug?) that when no windows was open, all panels were visible. | 07:11 |
| === general_failure is now known as Guest92539 | ||
| marsupapu | I have a autohide panel as a launcher in left side of the screen and I thought it might have been nice to have it visible when no windows are open. | 07:12 |
| photonios | any dev guys around? | 11:01 |
| ochosi | !ask | 11:06 |
| 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 | 11:06 |
| ochosi | photonios: ^ | 11:06 |
| photonios | my bad, I am experiencing this weird bug; when I grab a window (like chrome) that is maximized (with the mouse) it will automatically resize back to the size it was before being maximized.. this however only works on the primary screen, but not on my second screen.. I'd like to fix this, but I am unsure whether this is actually a bug, and in which system, would that be Xubuntu code, or Xfce, or even X? | 11:09 |
| ochosi | photonios: it's xfwm4 that handles all that. there recently has been a fix for a problem like that, let me dig up the commit.. | 11:11 |
| ochosi | humm, not sure it'll actually fix your issue: http://git.xfce.org/xfce/xfwm4/commit/?id=ce17bcde01c54d4f20598251f0800c5aa1d646bd | 11:11 |
| ochosi | however, you can always try to build xfwm4 from git and then run it | 11:12 |
| ochosi | basically clone the repo, do "sudo apt-get build-dep xfwm4", then ./autogen.sh and make | 11:12 |
| ochosi | then you can run it from the directory (./src/xfwm4 --replace) | 11:12 |
| photonios | Hmm, I'll give it a go | 11:12 |
| ochosi | if that still doesn | 11:12 |
| ochosi | t fix it, report a bug on bugs.xfce.org against xfwm4 | 11:13 |
| ochosi | don | 11:13 |
| ochosi | arg, stupid enter-key... | 11:13 |
| ochosi | don't expect a fix popping up there very swiftly or even at all, xfwm4 is currently a bit unmaintained | 11:13 |
| photonios | how do you mean unmaintained? like no activity? | 11:14 |
| ochosi | like no active maintainer | 11:14 |
| photonios | if the fix you just pointed to doesn't work I'll try fixing it myself | 11:14 |
| ochosi | that'd be great | 11:14 |
| photonios | that's too bad actually, I have come across some other strange bugs that seem related to xfwm4 | 11:15 |
| photonios | haven't gotten around to verifying them | 11:16 |
| ochosi | i guess patches are welcome | 11:16 |
| photonios | would be weird if they weren't ... +1 on the build process for xfwm4, smooth | 11:18 |
| photonios | holy crap, master is broken like hell | 11:19 |
| photonios | ok that build of xfwm4 totally screwed up | 11:33 |
| Pappaaaai | Hi | 13:04 |
| Pappaaaai | After loggin into xubuntu all I can see is the mouse pointer and the background | 13:05 |
| Pappaaaai | Does anyone know how I can fix it? | 13:05 |
| bluesabre | Pappaaaai: so, no panel? | 13:07 |
| Pappaaaai | no panel at all | 13:07 |
| Pappaaaai | only background and the mouse | 13:07 |
| bluesabre | ok, does Alt+F2 start the run dialog? | 13:08 |
| Pappaaaai | Im an this computer. it's a dual OS. im on windows. How can I log in to it, fixing it and chatting with u at the same time? is it possible? | 13:09 |
| Pappaaaai | would be much easier | 13:09 |
| bluesabre | ah | 13:09 |
| Pappaaaai | how do I do? | 13:09 |
| bluesabre | well, if Alt+F2 starts the Application Finder, you can start firefox from there | 13:09 |
| Pappaaaai | okej thanks. will be back | 13:09 |
| bluesabre | ok | 13:09 |
| Pappaaai | Hi again | 13:12 |
| Pappaaai | no it doesnt work. I'm on irssi. I presssed ctrl+alt+F1 and run irssi from there | 13:13 |
| Pappaaai | What do I do now? | 13:15 |
| Pappaaai | bluesabre: are you there? | 13:19 |
| bluesabre | hey Papppaaai | 13:21 |
| Pappaaai | Hey. we just talked right+ | 13:21 |
| bluesabre | yes | 13:21 |
| Pappaaai | do you what I should do now? | 13:22 |
| bluesabre | is this a fresh installation, or a problem that just started happening? | 13:22 |
| Pappaaai | it is fresh. but it happend yestarday too and that was a fresh install | 13:23 |
| Pappaaai | not* | 13:23 |
| Pappaaai | was not* | 13:23 |
| Pappaaai | I have dual screen using hdmi | 13:24 |
| bluesabre | ok | 13:25 |
| Pappaaai | and it is same picture | 13:25 |
| Pappaaai | When I drag out the hdmi cale it changes nothing | 13:26 |
| bluesabre | ok, not sure what to do in this case | 13:28 |
| Pappaaai | okej :( | 13:28 |
| bluesabre | one of the other support guys might be around if you hang out in the channel | 13:29 |
| bluesabre | I usually don't speak up here :) | 13:29 |
| xubuntu869 | Hello bluesabre, my handle is bbop; you asked me to head over to this chat portal regarding the suspend bug on ubuntu 14.04 | 13:30 |
| bluesabre | hey bbop | 13:30 |
| xubuntu869 | of course that's not my real name, but I prefer to not give my real name on public forums, I hope that's ok | 13:31 |
| bluesabre | np | 13:31 |
| xubuntu869 | cool. So what can I do to help here. | 13:31 |
| xubuntu869 | ? | 13:31 |
| bluesabre | so first question, when exactly does the black screen occur? Do you see the login screen, or is it after you login? | 13:31 |
| xubuntu869 | there's no login screen. When I suspend, everything looks normal. it powers down and the screen goes blank, as it should. | 13:32 |
| xubuntu869 | when I try to wake it up, I can hear that the hardware is turning on, and the fan starts going. The screen itself is "on" so to speak, but blank. | 13:33 |
| xubuntu869 | I can only see the white cursor of the mouse. | 13:33 |
| Pappaaai | xubuntu869: try ctrl+alt+f1 and write sudo restart lightdm | 13:33 |
| xubuntu869 | (there was one time when I could see the faded outline of the top-right menu, but couldn't do anything with it) | 13:33 |
| xubuntu869 | there was never any login screen | 13:33 |
| xubuntu869 | tried that | 13:33 |
| xubuntu869 | ctrl+alt+F[1-6] doesn't do anything | 13:34 |
| bluesabre | ok, so I think this is a separate issue then | 13:34 |
| xubuntu869 | keyboard _seems_ inactive | 13:34 |
| bluesabre | what gfx card/drivers are you using? | 13:34 |
| xubuntu869 | not sure, I think NVIDIA... hold on a sec. | 13:34 |
| bluesabre | ok | 13:34 |
| xubuntu869 | $ lspci | grep VGA 02:00.0 VGA yields : compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GF119 [GeForce GT 610] (rev a1) | 13:36 |
| xubuntu869 | sorry, I mistyped that, the output from this command: | 13:37 |
| xubuntu869 | lspci | grep DVI | 13:37 |
| xubuntu869 | was this: | 13:37 |
| xubuntu869 | 02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GF119 [GeForce GT 610] (rev a1) | 13:38 |
| bluesabre | ok, and are you using the nouveau drivers (default) or nvidia? You can check which is selected from Settings Manager -> Additional Drivers | 13:38 |
| xubuntu869 | argh... correction again, grepped for VGA, not DVI | 13:39 |
| bluesabre | :) | 13:39 |
| xubuntu869 | I don't see "Additional Drivers" in system settings | 13:40 |
| bluesabre | should be listed under "Hardware", can you install "inxi" and then run "inxi -G" | 13:42 |
| xubuntu869 | k... when entering : | 13:44 |
| xubuntu869 | $ inxi -G | 13:44 |
| xubuntu869 | I get: | 13:44 |
| xubuntu869 | Graphics: Card: NVIDIA GF119 [GeForce GT 610] X.Org: 1.15.1 drivers: nouveau (unloaded: fbdev,vesa) Resolution: 1680x1050@59.9hz, 1920x1080@60.0hz GLX Renderer: Gallium 0.4 on NVD9 GLX Version: 3.0 Mesa 10.1.3 | 13:44 |
| xubuntu869 | Keep in mind, I just updated from 12.04 to 14.04 recently, and I haven't messed with any of the drivers thus far. | 13:45 |
| xubuntu869 | So pretty much everything should be the default upon installation. | 13:45 |
| bluesabre | ok | 13:46 |
| bluesabre | since you don't see "Additional Drivers", is "Software & Updates" listed in the Settings Manager? | 13:46 |
| xubuntu869 | When you say "Settings Manager", you mean the "System settings" program right? (i.e. the icon has a wrench on top of a gear on the left panel) | 13:47 |
| xubuntu869 | and yes, "Software and updates" is visible there | 13:48 |
| xubuntu869 | ah, and I see "Additional drivers" there | 13:48 |
| bluesabre | cool, and just checking, are you using Xubuntu or Ubuntu/something else? | 13:49 |
| xubuntu869 | when I go to the "Additional Drivers" panel, the button that's ticked says "Using X.Org X server -nouveay display ... (open source) | 13:49 |
| xubuntu869 | Nope. just "regular", I guess. | 13:51 |
| xubuntu869 | I went to the ubuntu site to install the latest version 14.04 | 13:51 |
| bluesabre | so, probably Ubuntu | 13:51 |
| xubuntu869 | i.e., the one that I got here : http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop | 13:51 |
| bluesabre | ok, so this is not a light-locker problem, but I can probably help. Sounds like a compositor-related issue. If you select the "Using NVIDIA... (Proprietary/tested)" option from Additional Drivers and restart, your situation will probaly improve | 13:52 |
| xubuntu869 | ok, that's "applying" now. | 13:54 |
| bluesabre | ok, that should sort the issue for you. There has been some confusion with Ubuntu's new lock screen getting confused with Xubuntu's new lock screen | 13:55 |
| xubuntu869 | ok, it now says "1 proprietary driver in use" | 13:56 |
| xubuntu869 | Shall I try suspending and waking up and see what happens? | 13:56 |
| bluesabre | ok, you'll need to restart for changes to take effect | 13:56 |
| xubuntu869 | or do I need to restart first? | 13:56 |
| xubuntu869 | ok, I'll restart, then try suspending, and then log back into this chat and tell you what happened. | 13:57 |
| xubuntu869 | brb | 13:57 |
| bluesabre | ok, thx | 13:57 |
| xubuntu864 | hey bluesabre. I'm back. it worked | 14:03 |
| bluesabre | awesome, glad to hear | 14:03 |
| xubuntu864 | I was able to suspend, wake up, and start working right away | 14:03 |
| xubuntu864 | thanks for your help | 14:03 |
| bluesabre | can you leave another comment on that bug stating that the issue is not actually light-locker? | 14:03 |
| xubuntu864 | If I understand correctly, this issue was unique to my system...? | 14:03 |
| bluesabre | It's a bug with Unity | 14:03 |
| bluesabre | if you want to follow through, you might check on the #ubuntu support channel and see if they know which bug it is | 14:04 |
| xubuntu864 | Sure,... I'm not exactly sure what the distinction is, but would it be helpful for me to switch back to the open-source driver and do more testing? | 14:04 |
| bluesabre | it may be | 14:05 |
| xubuntu864 | if that's not helpful, then i'm happy to just say "It's working for me" and be done with it, but if testing on my system can be of help, I'm willing to do that | 14:05 |
| bluesabre | cool | 14:05 |
| bluesabre | type "/join #ubuntu" to join their channel | 14:05 |

| xubuntu510 | Hello everyone ! i m beginer on XUBUNTU and linux....i m trying to install xubuntu on my old PC (designed for XP....amd sempron) and it is blocked on the step (bcmwl-kernel-source).....but allows me to use this internet windows ? is it normal? and does it takes more than half an hour to pass thie step ? :-) | 14:41 |
| cfhowlett | xubuntu510 yes it's normal. I don't fully understand, but there's some kind of universal wifi driver while in live mode. once you skip this step, it should rapidly install | 14:51 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Is there a way to have Thunar display the dir tree at the top of the window like Nemo or Nautilus? | 14:55 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Question still stands. | 14:59 |
| bazhang_ | http://docs.xfce.org/xfce/thunar/preferences seems not at the top SonikkuAmerica | 16:08 |
| brasileiro | hi, how do I change from gnome (ubuntu) to xfce4 (xubuntu)? | 17:29 |
| SonikkuAmerica | !purexfce | 17:29 |
| 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 » | 17:29 |
| brasileiro | SonikkuAmerica, thanks =) | 17:29 |
| bazhang_ | install the xubuntu-desktop package brasileiro | 17:29 |
| bazhang_ | then select at login | 17:30 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Although I'd just replace your system with an Xubuntu system via Live image if you want it 100% pure | 17:30 |
| brasileiro | SonikkuAmerica, it's just to remove the useless software from Ubuntu that are already replaced by Xubuntu, mostly Gnome stuff I guess? | 17:31 |
| brasileiro | SonikkuAmerica, found this https://sites.google.com/site/easylinuxtipsproject/alternative seems exacly what I wanted =) | 17:35 |
| elfy | that purexfce link is out of date now | 17:35 |
| brasileiro | elfy, yeap, that's what i thought.. | 17:37 |

| madlybad | hello | 18:09 |
| madlybad | Where is possible to adjust SCREEN BRIGHTNESS, in Xubuntu 14.04? | 18:10 |
| ochosi | madlybad: if it's a laptop you're on, you should be able to use the brightness keys on the keyboard | 18:13 |
| ochosi | (it's also possible that there's no support in linux for your laptop's display, in case the buttons don't work) | 18:13 |
| ochosi | you can also install xfce4-power-manager-plugins and then add the brightness-plugin to the panel and try to change the brightness via that | 18:13 |
| madlybad | ochosi: Yes, I use laptop(netbook). I'm not able to use keyboard option :( | 18:15 |
| ochosi | so if nothing happens, try the alternative | 18:15 |
| ochosi | install the package, then right-click the panel and click "add new items" | 18:16 |
| ochosi | then select the brightness plugin and try to adjust it with the plugin | 18:16 |
| madlybad | happens nothing with this pugin, too :( | 18:17 |
| ochosi | then i guess you're out of luck... | 18:18 |
| ochosi | at least i wouldn't know of any other way | 18:18 |
| madlybad | me too :( | 18:18 |
