| cyborgcygnus | Anyone got a ubottu link for the xubuntu power buttons/power manager? When I used to open the whisker menu & hit the power button it would bring up options of what I wanted to do, now it just logs me out of the account & I have to click the shutdown button again from the login menu. | 00:19 |

| meek_geek | which image viewer is used by xubuntu? | 02:59 |
| xangua | Don't remember but I think is part of xfce goodies | 03:00 |
| xangua | I prefer using viewnoir when using xfce | 03:00 |
| meek_geek | viewnoir ? is it super fast ? | 03:01 |
| xangua | If you are looking for faster or lightest applications I think xfce default apps are good enough | 03:06 |

| enrico_ | hi guys, I'm having troubles installing the proper driver for my printer - epson xp-510. With generic drivers it prints just a bunch of code, and when I try to install the specific driver everything freeze during installation | 07:34 |
| enrico_ | I already tried restarting xubuntu | 07:35 |
| enrico_ | http://www.openprinting.org/driver/epson-201309w/ | 07:36 |
| enrico_ | driver installation starts, after a while (30-60sec) I enter the password and everything stops, both from printer settings and software center | 07:39 |
| ObrienDave | http://download.ebz.epson.net/dsc/search/01/search/?OSC=LX | 07:39 |
| ObrienDave | enter your model number | 07:40 |
| enrico_ | .deb right? | 07:42 |
| enrico_ | (yeah, linux noob here) | 07:42 |
| ObrienDave | yes, 64bit or i486 (32 bit) | 07:43 |
| ObrienDave | i386, sorry | 07:43 |
| ObrienDave | don't know what you have | 07:44 |
| enrico_ | 32 | 07:44 |
| enrico_ | stuck in software center... | 07:44 |
| ObrienDave | what's stuck? | 07:45 |
| enrico_ | installation | 07:45 |
| ObrienDave | of this file? your previous attempt? | 07:46 |
| enrico_ | both | 07:46 |
| enrico_ | after entering pw | 07:46 |
| ObrienDave | you can't do both at the same time | 07:46 |
| enrico_ | it doesn't move | 07:46 |
| enrico_ | no, I aborted the previous, of course | 07:46 |
| enrico_ | should I try from terminal? | 07:47 |
| ObrienDave | i suggest a shut down, then come back after a reboot | 07:47 |
| enrico_ | already did that a couple of times | 07:47 |
| enrico_ | I'll try another one | 07:48 |
| ObrienDave | but you're still stuck | 07:48 |
| enrico_ | just the installation | 07:48 |
| enrico_ | the other stuff work | 07:48 |
| enrico_ | reboot | 07:50 |
| enrico_ | i'm back | 07:53 |
| ObrienDave | ok, did you save the .deb? | 07:53 |
| enrico_ | yeah | 07:54 |
| enrico_ | should I try from terminal? | 07:54 |
| ObrienDave | ok, i'd use whatever opens on double clicking the deb | 07:54 |
| enrico_ | software center | 07:55 |
| ObrienDave | that should work | 07:55 |
| ObrienDave | it might be D/Ling dependencies also | 07:55 |
| enrico_ | bingo! | 07:58 |
| enrico_ | Thanks a lot! | 07:58 |
| ObrienDave | most welcome | 07:59 |
| enrico_ | bye, have a good day! | 07:59 |

| auvajs | ok but I cant access a graphic browser.. have console only | 08:44 |
| auvajs | so no ıdea whats on that page | 08:44 |
| ObrienDave | well, does your screen work after rebooting? | 08:45 |
| auvajs | rebooting was somethıng I tried to avoid | 08:45 |
| ObrienDave | why? | 08:46 |
| auvajs | cause I simply hate it .. restart only when necessary.. basically only when doing a system upgrade | 08:47 |
| auvajs | ok ciao | 08:48 |
| Unit193 | Restarting lightdm would work, as would one recommendation in that bug. | 08:50 |
| ObrienDave | he did not want to reboot. go figure | 08:51 |
| Unit193 | Of course, no need to, there's other ways. | 08:52 |
| ObrienDave | yes, always other ways, but if it works, what's wrong with rebooting? | 08:54 |
| ObrienDave | i could see the point if you're talking about some mission critical server or something | 08:58 |

| larsm13 | Actually, I don't know how to do that, Mr. Bot, because I don't know how to use Xchat | 10:10 |

| ARM9 | so the menu bugged out on me | 11:17 |
| ARM9 | I removed a program I had installed manually but now I can't remove the menu entry for whatever reason | 11:17 |
| ARM9 | it doesn't show up in the menu editor, but it does show up when I open the menu | 11:17 |
| ARM9 | start menu or whatever | 11:17 |
| ARM9 | looks like I'll have to remove it manually, where/how to do this? | 11:18 |
| eespln | ARM9: have you rebooted? | 11:21 |
| ARM9 | several times | 11:22 |
| ARM9 | I uninstalled it weeks ago | 11:22 |
| eespln | you're using whisker menu? | 11:22 |
| ARM9 | whatever the default in xubuntu 14.04 is | 11:22 |
| ARM9 | that looks about right yes | 11:22 |
| eespln | I'm on windows right now :( but the menu entries should be in /usr/share somewhere... | 11:23 |
| eespln | I'll be in Xubuntu 14.04 in like 2 minutes, though | 11:23 |
| ARM9 | thanks, I'll dig around a bit | 11:23 |
| eespln | have a look in /usr/share/menu | 11:25 |
| eespln | what application is it? | 11:28 |
| ARM9 | looks to be nothing in there | 11:29 |
| ARM9 | sublime text 2, installed it manually iirc | 11:29 |
| eespln | manually as in compiled it etc? | 11:29 |
| ARM9 | so I made the menu entry with menulibre, but for whatever reason it bugged out when I removed the program (put it in /home/me/bin/sublime2) | 11:29 |
| ARM9 | nah, just downloaded and made a menu entry for t | 11:30 |
| eespln | you can try running | 11:30 |
| eespln | locate -i sublime | 11:30 |
| eespln | and see if anything is left | 11:30 |
| ARM9 | need to memorize that command, thanks | 11:32 |
| ARM9 | found some things, I'll try removing them | 11:32 |
| eespln | ah, locate is easy but really useful | 11:32 |
| ARM9 | yup found the culprit, menu entry is gone, thanks for the help | 11:33 |
| eespln | you're welcome :) | 11:33 |

| Xcrashed | If I were to switch from Xfce to KDE, witch major differences would I likely to experience? | 13:29 |
| SirLagz | Xcrashed: *everything* | 13:30 |
| Xcrashed | So no troubles Installing KDE on Xubuntu? | 13:31 |
| holstein | Xcrashed: you might want to read about swiching to kubuntu, though, sometimes i run into challenges expecting the flavor distro meta packages to exist together well, like, adding kubuntu-deskto to xubuntu.. but, installing just kde will certainly be no trouble, and xubuntu is not doing anything to prevent you adding kde | 13:34 |
| holstein | Xcrashed: will you have troubles? you can have troubles with any part of the process.. | 13:34 |
| Xcrashed | One more question, is Xfce more lightweight in terms of CPU and memory usage? | 13:36 |
| Hedgework | Xcrashed: than what? | 13:37 |
| Xcrashed | KDE | 13:37 |
| Hedgework | Xcrashed: yes | 13:37 |
| Xcrashed | Thanks that's all. | 13:37 |
| Hedgework | KDE > Gnome > Xfce4 > fluxbox > i3wm > fvwm | 13:37 |
| Hedgework | (in terms of resources typically consumed) | 13:37 |
| holstein | by default.. but, any user could setup a slim kde, or a heavy xfce.. | 13:37 |
| Hedgework | holstein: I said "typically"...I figure if you're seriously changing from the typical set-up you already understand the subject well enough to know what you're doing and not need the info | 13:38 |
| holstein | Hedgework: sure.. i just dont think that user is aware of any of the facts.. but, they are gone | 13:40 |
| Hedgework | holstein: right, so I just assumed they'd run stock whatever with a bunch of crap stapled on top :P | 13:40 |
