[01:44] <Hectiquin> I need help
[01:45] <Hectiquin> I installed xubuntu on a macbook 1.1 works fine.I chose to encrypt the hard drive. did not know it was goint to ask me for the password of encryption everytime, can i remove this?
[01:47] <xangua> encrypt the whole drive¿
[01:48] <Hectiquin> i did, I just dont want to put the password everytime i log in
[01:48] <xangua> well then anyone could acces your data
[01:48] <xangua> that's the point of encrypting a drive, I just encrypt my home
[01:49] <xangua> access
[01:49] <Hectiquin> can I undo it or I have to reinstall?
[01:49] <xangua> reinstall won't decrypt your drive
[01:50] <Hectiquin> I know, I mean delete everything and start overagain
[01:50] <Hectiquin> if I just encrypt the home directory, I wont be asked for he password at log in?
[01:54] <xangua> you will have a password, but your user password will trigger your encrypt home password
[01:54] <Hectiquin> So I would only have to put the user password?
[02:29] <brasileiro> hi guys, there's a problem that's bugging me for a while now... my fan keeps activating in waves, each 10s more or less.. during its activation my ubuntu (14.04) lags, this is more frequent when I'm watching a movie... it seems that after the installation of the bumblebee (nvidia) the lags are less powerful... I was wondering if anyone would have ANY idea for me to start searching about this problem...
[03:19] <poeticrpm> brasileiro, use htop or some process manager to see if anything is hogging CPU
[03:29] <brasileiro> poeticrpm, nop, everything OK
[05:54] <Guido1> hello, i upgraded from xubuntu 12.04 to 14.04. the starmenu stayed the same wheras i have a different one if i do a fresh instal. how can i decide between the menues?
[05:56] <xangua> you can add the whishker menu
[06:01] <Guido1> xangua: how? I thought it should come with the update and therefore I just have to change a setting
[06:02] <xangua> right click-add
[06:02] <xangua> whatever is done in the xfce panel
[06:03] <Guido1> xangua: where should i do the right click? in the old menu there is no free space
[06:15] <Guido1> m from 12.04?
[06:15] <Guido1> And what happand with the program menu in the bottom from 12.04?
[06:26] <xubuntu001> ok maybe someone can help me in here, i am trying to create symlinks and I keep getting command 'ln' not found
[06:27] <deshipu> xubuntu001: more details please
[06:28] <xubuntu001> this is what it gives me No command 'ln‭' found, did you mean:  Command 'ln' from package 'coreutils' (main) ln‭: command not found
[06:29] <elfy> Guido1: the app menu plugin in 12.04 is replaced by the whiskermenu plugin in 14.04
[06:29] <deshipu> xubuntu001: do you have coreutils uinstalled and if not, why?
[06:30] <Guido1> elfy: ah, i see. thanks. Is there a way toswitch between the two menues?
[06:30] <xubuntu001> this system is a new install and nothing has been removed
[06:30] <elfy> Guido1: you can replace them if that's what you mean
[06:30] <deshipu> xubuntu001: what does 'apt-cache policy coreutils' say?
[06:31] <xubuntu001> coreutils:   Installed: 8.21-1ubuntu5   Candidate: 8.21-1ubuntu5   Version table:  *** 8.21-1ubuntu5 0         500 http://jp.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main amd64 Packages         100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
[06:31] <deshipu> xubuntu001: did you copy-paste that "ln" from somewhere?
[06:31] <Guido1> elfy: maybe. I will get a new laptop and both menues seam nice. so I would like t try both and than be able to decide which one i want to keep
[06:32] <elfy> Guido1: there's nothing that would stop you having both in your panel :)
[06:32] <Guido1> elfy: how can i do that?
[06:33] <elfy> Guido1: I don't often use either tbh, but when I do I prefer using whiskermenu as I've set it so I mouseover to change categories rather than click
[06:33] <xubuntu001> deshipu that was it,  i manual typed it in and it went through
[06:34] <deshipu> xubuntu001: that probably wasn't a real l or n
[06:34] <deshipu> xubuntu001: but some unicode characters that look like them
[06:34] <Guido1> elfy: (in the cas that i upgraded and in the case that i have a frech 14.04 install)
[06:34] <Guido1> yea, than it is better, but iset it to click as it otherwise opens windows i don't want be open.
[06:34] <elfy> Guido1: if you are going it install 14.04 then just add applications menu to the panel and you'll have both
[06:34] <deshipu> xubuntu001: or there was an invisible unicode character between or after them
[06:35] <Guido1> elfy: how do i install it? a special file for the software center, a special name or the command? (and what if i want to have it in the upgraded version? it shows the old menu)
[06:35] <elfy> Guido1: if you upgrade then I think you will still have the old menu and would have to add whiskermenu
[06:36] <Guido1> elfy: yes
[06:36] <elfy> right click on the panel - add new items - look for whiskermenu and add
[06:36] <elfy> they are both just panel plugins
[06:37] <Guido1> right click opens a program or folder
[06:37] <elfy> on an empty part of the panel
[06:38] <elfy> or just about anywhere on the panel and look for panel in the menu you get
[06:38] <elfy> same as adding any panel plugin
[06:38] <Guido1> than i get to the main menu setup
[06:39] <elfy> I have no idea what you are doing then
[06:43] <Guido1> elfy: ah, found it. how can i get the old ones in the new version? (application and the one in the bottom)
[06:44] <elfy> old what?
[06:44] <Guido1> elfy: applicationmenu and the menu bare in the bottam with the "quickstarters"
[06:45] <elfy> they are all just plugins - add them the same way :)
[06:45] <Guido1> so they should come with a new install
[06:46] <elfy> they come with it - but the panel is set up differently - just add and take away things as you see fit :)
[06:47] <Guido1> elfy: thanks :-) and you sayed that the sub menues open automatoicly by the wiskerker if you are above them. can that be set up in the menu or is it related to the mous?
[06:47] <elfy> it's a whiskermenu setting
[06:48] <Guido1> okee, where can i find it?
[06:48] <Guido1> ah, found
[06:49] <Guido1> thanks :-)

[12:41] <peyam> Hi,
[12:42] <peyam> I have installed Xubuntu 14.04 and the Android emulator doesnt work becouse I need to install som 32 bits library. but last time i did it I got some problems. the xubuntu desktop(panel) didnt appear after reboot. Is it a known problem and what should I do in case that happens again
[17:32] <brasileiro> hi everyone, I've got a problem mounting an external HDD... if someone could help me, I've posted it in here: http://superuser.com/questions/775164/cant-mount-external-hdd-device-listed-at-lsusb-but-doesnt-appear-at-deV
[17:33] <meek_geek> has xubuntu updated anything in last 2 days ?
[17:34] <meek_geek> I don't see updates coming
[18:37] <xangua> do you have a security issue¿
[18:38] <meek_geek> who me ?
[18:38] <meek_geek> I cannot see any updates since last two days I believe their is some issue in my setup
[18:39] <xangua> most updates are security fixes, you won't get new major release software except maybe firefox/thunderbird
[18:40] <knome> meek_geek, if it ain't broken, don't fix it
[18:40] <meek_geek> xangua, i don't have thunderbird i purged it
[18:40] <meek_geek> knome, ai'ght
[18:40] <xangua> meek_geek: do you expect security/normal updates every day?
[18:41] <meek_geek> I have a question about security ; does xubuntu install any non-free package by default except for non-free blobs in the kernel ?
[18:42] <meek_geek> xangua, no but i had many updates last week
[18:45] <deshipu> meek_geek: depends whether you check the checkbox in the installer
[18:46] <c0de_> hey there
[18:47] <meek_geek> deshipu, which Checkbox ? That its ok to install mp3 etc ?
[18:47] <deshipu> yes
[18:48] <deshipu> I believe so
[18:49] <elfy> meek_geek: unless you have changed something in the time between now and the last updates, or your internet connection has failed - then nothing has changed at your end - if you're not getting any updates then that's because there is nothing for you to update :)
[18:55] <koegs> if "sudo apt-get update" does not throw an error, there should not be a problem, i would say :)
[19:05] <elfy> koegs: I agree - as long as none of the repos have been disabled :)
[19:08] <koegs> elfy: good point
[20:18] <meek_geek> elfy, ok thanks
[20:18] <meek_geek> guys is there a way to setup a search box in thunar ?
[20:18] <meek_geek> I don't see searchbox in thunar
[20:18] <meek_geek> like it is in Ubuntu
[20:21]  * elfy has no idea what it's like in ubuntu meek_geek 
[20:21] <elfy> but maybe try a custom action https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ThunarCustomActions#Search_Including_Hidden_Files.2BAC8-Folders
[20:38] <meek_geek> elfy, like its in Windows OS or Mac OS .. we have a search box in the top right of the file manager
[20:40] <elfy> sorry - those descriptions don't mean much to me ;)
[20:41] <elfy> but just reading that  - then - no you can't afaik :)
[20:47] <meek_geek> elfy, np :] Can I change the file manager ?
[20:48] <elfy> you can install nautilus yes :)
[20:49] <meek_geek> elfy, omg when you right click there is find this folder and it opens catfish
[20:50] <meek_geek> its so cool
[20:50] <meek_geek>  now i don't want anything
