[00:05] <GeekDude> Xubuntu (and also ubuntu when that was what was installed) looks really odd on boot and shutdown. Sorry for the blurry shutdown picture, but there was only a second or so that it was showing, which was a bit too fast for my phone's autofocus. http://imgur.com/a/TC5VQ
[00:06] <GeekDude> Any way for me to resolve this video issue?
[00:07] <ObrienDave> that is weird. are your graphics drivers current?
[00:09] <GeekDude> I'm not sure how to check
[00:09] <GeekDude> I just installed xubuntu (wiping the drive) today
[00:09] <GeekDude> set it to install updates over ethernet while it installed the OS
[00:09] <GeekDude> then let it run the post-installation updates
[00:09] <ObrienDave> that should get you the latest repo versions
[00:11] <ObrienDave> which video card or chipset?
[00:13] <GeekDude> not sure
[00:13]  * GeekDude checks 
[00:14] <GeekDude> according to http://www.dell.com/downloads/global/products/optix/en/opti_320techspecs.pdf
[00:14] <GeekDude> ATI Radeon® Xpress 1100 Professional Chipset
[00:18] <ObrienDave> i would think you need to search for drivers from Dell
[00:20] <ObrienDave> or ATI as a last resort. usually the manufacturers drivers are optimized for your computer whereas ATIs are more generic
[00:21] <GeekDude> Supposing I found some, would that also increase the performance of pipelight's "hardware acceleration"?
[00:22] <ObrienDave> hard to say, i would think so but cant be sure
[00:24] <GeekDude> As it is, it runs choppily at standard definition video, and I don't even want to think of high definition
[00:27] <GeekDude> seems there hasn't been proprietary support since ubuntu 8.01
[00:30] <ObrienDave> that's possible considering the age of the computer. you might have to locate an ATI driver that works
[01:57] <Blue1> I am trying to get print screen to work in xubuntu 14.04 -- have been schlepping for 45 minutes no ideas
[02:14] <David-A> Blue1: what happens when you press the PrintScreen button?
[02:20] <David-A> Blue1: do you have this settings: Settings>Keyboard>ApplicationShortcuts? is the Print key associated with a command there?

[05:58] <MetaCosm> Got a weird issue... I have keybindings setup for switching desktops (alt-1.. alt-2.. etc), after I set them via settings->window manager->keyboard they work -- but after a reboot they stop working.  They still show as properly mapped and if I got into settings are "rebind" them (alt-1 to alt-1 again) ... they start working
[06:47] <groja> hello
[06:49] <groja> Anyone online at the moment?
[06:49] <elfy> groja: lot's of people are - ask the question and if anyone can help you they will
[06:52] <groja> no questions yet, just installing it on my system at the moment.  :)

[08:38] <cousteau> xubuntu 12.04.  How can I change the default monospace font?
[08:39] <cousteau> right now it's Droid Sans Mono, I think.  This font has a different width when bold, so it's not very monospace on code editors.  I'd like to change it to DejaVu Sans Mono.
[08:40] <cousteau> I often can do this per application, but I'd rather change it system-wide
[08:58] <cousteau> (I'd consider this as a "bug" in the font, btw)
[09:14] <koegs> cousteau: xfce4-settings-manager -> appearance -> Fonts
[09:15] <cousteau> only one font there
[09:16] <cousteau> the "default font" (which I guess is what "sans" defaults to).  But there's no setting for monospace font there.  (at least on my Xubuntu version)
[09:16] <cousteau> but thanks anyway :)
[09:18] <cousteau> ...yuck, I activated the sub-pixel smoothing; I had forgotten how much I hate it
[09:28] <koegs> cousteau: seems that there is no menu for that: http://from-mac-to-xubuntu.tumblr.com/post/37327811400/change-default-monospace-font
[09:31] <cousteau> koegs, cool, thanks!
[09:32]  * cousteau adds those lines to his .fonts.conf, together with the hack to remove the bitmap font from the Calibri font
[13:36] <xubuntu382> how can i get lightdm to run an xrandr script on startup? there is no lightdm.conf
[13:38] <xubuntu382> i tried making one and setting display-setup-script as the only option but that didn't work

[16:18] <Guest62000> How can I get more XFCE themes for xubuntu? I know if debian when I install I have a ton of themes. Is there a package?
[16:19] <Guest62000> nevermind. xfwm4-themes
[16:20] <xangua> xfce-look.org
[17:57] <Alpha-Omega> Does anyone know why MPV doesn't show an OSD?
[18:18] <Alpha-Omega> Anyone?>
[18:26] <elfy> Alpha-Omega: what's MPV?
[18:27] <Alpha-Omega> elfy: a video player
[18:27] <Alpha-Omega> http://mpv.io/
[18:27] <Alpha-Omega> the link shows the OSD that should show by default, but the Xubuntu repo install doesn't seem to show it.
[18:37] <elfy> Alpha-Omega: no idea - get the same here in 14.10 - there is a channel #mpv-player
[18:37] <elfy> try there perhaps
[18:37] <Alpha-Omega> elfy: I'll try, thanks

[19:37] <elfy> MetaCosm: there appear to be some workrounds in that bug
[20:57] <MetaCosm> elfy, the "click clear until it is actually clear" work-around seems to have done the trick, thanks.
