[00:00] <ObrienDave> abanabee7, how can we help?
[00:00] <ObrienDave> wilsonjl3, open a terminal please
[00:00] <wilsonjl3> got one open already ;)
[00:00] <ObrienDave> cool
[00:00] <abanabee7> Well, as I run Xubuntu the desktop starts messing up, like I start seeing graphics from before, like I was in a video chat at 11pm, and at 10 AM the next day i see those graphics pop up
[00:01] <ObrienDave> abanabee7, do you turn your computer off between times?
[00:01] <abanabee7> and when I switch the workspace, they go away, only to come back. And if I mouse over them they return to the current stuff. No, this is all in one session
[00:02] <ObrienDave> wilsonjl3, copy and paste the following line into the terminal
[00:03] <ObrienDave> sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ehoover/compholio
[00:04] <ObrienDave> abanabee7, sounds like a graphics card driver issue. are you current on the driver?
[00:04] <ObrienDave> wilsonjl3, what that does is add the address to you sources list and import the security key to your system
[00:05] <wilsonjl3> so i update now?
[00:05] <abanabee7> ObrienDave, I don't really use the graphics drivers, I mean I use the opensource ones as that allows the system to be able to boot into other computers, which I often do.
[00:05] <abanabee7> also, this is like a random thing, it will go like a month without doing anything bad, then go thro cycles of it doing this.
[00:05] <ObrienDave> wilsonjl3, now the ALWAYS important sudo apt-get update
[00:06] <wilsonjl3> thought so :) so i did it
[00:06] <ObrienDave> wilsonjl3, ok, look on that page for the package name...
[00:07] <wilsonjl3> ObrienDave help abanabee7 first :) i can wait and it'd probably be easier
[00:07] <ObrienDave> sudo apt-get install netflix-desktop
[00:08] <abanabee7> wilsonjl3, Thank you, i don't mind waiting either, as this is a recurring thing, and it is annoying, but not something that is a desperate thing
[00:08] <ObrienDave> abanabee7, sorry, i am not sure how to help you other than recommend the drivers for your card. someone here can be of better assistance than i can :)
[00:08] <wilsonjl3> aha im just trying to figure out how to use netflix on here :P no big deal
[00:08] <wilsonjl3> (its installed, ObrienDave)
[00:09] <ObrienDave> wilsonjl3, ok, what we installed is a custom WINE and the netflix viewer. it works pretty good
[00:10] <wilsonjl3> we only installed netflix-desktop and put in new repos?
[00:10] <wilsonjl3> didnt we?
[00:10] <ObrienDave> yes, but part of the dependencies for this version of netflix is the custom WINE environment ;P
[00:11] <wilsonjl3> okay :3
[00:11] <ObrienDave> dependencies are almost always automatically installed
[00:12] <wilsonjl3> so i was just supposed to put that into the terminal, right? not click anything on this page?
[00:12] <ObrienDave> abanabee7, you could also ask in #ubuntu about your graphics issue. be sure to mention you're using Xubuntu
[00:12] <ObrienDave> wilsonjl3, yes, we did everything from the terminal
[00:12] <wilsonjl3> ok
[00:13] <wilsonjl3> so it should work now?
[00:13] <ObrienDave> you should see a netflix icon under multimedia or graphics menu. i don't remember which
[00:13] <abanabee7> ObrienDave, true, I could go there. Tho i figured since it was Xubuntu that it was something about how XFCE is running
[00:14] <ObrienDave> ask Unit193, they are our resident XFCE expert :_
[00:14] <Fall> whisker menu fixed for 12.04 yet?
[00:14] <wilsonjl3> not working, its telling me to install, wich im guessing wont run on xubuntu :/
[00:15] <ObrienDave> Fall, not sure
[00:15] <wilsonjl3> install silverlight*
[00:15] <Fall> ObrienDave: it's slightly annoying :(
[00:15] <ObrienDave> wilsonjl3, ok, hang on
[00:15] <wilsonjl3> okay :)
[00:16] <abanabee7> ObrienDave, would this show up in the logs in some way? I mean I wouldn't know exactly what to look for in the logs. Where can I go to talk to Unit193?
[00:16] <wilsonjl3> abanabee7, Unit193 is in this room but i think he's away right now :/
[00:17] <abanabee7> Wilsonjl3, ahhhh, I can wait, I don't mind much. Do you know when he will be back? I don't want to miss him
[00:17] <ObrienDave> wilsonjl3, in terminal...
[00:17] <ObrienDave> sudo add-apt-repository ppa:pipelight/stable
[00:18] <wilsonjl3> abanabee7, no idea sorry :(
[00:18] <ObrienDave> sudo apt-get update
[00:18] <abanabee7> wilsonjl3, that's ok, time is not an issue, i stay up pretty late anyway lol
[00:19] <wilsonjl3> abanabee aha well thats good atleast
[00:19] <wilsonjl3> ObrienDave, its updating now
[00:20] <ObrienDave> k, sec

[00:47] <ObrienDave> https://launchpad.net/~pipelight/+archive/ubuntu/stable/+build/6175405/+files/wine-compholio-amd64_1.7.22~ubuntu14.10.1_amd64.deb
[00:47] <ObrienDave> wait a sec
[00:48] <wilsonjl3> waiting :)
[00:48] <ObrienDave> https://launchpad.net/~pipelight/+archive/ubuntu/stable/+files/wine-compholio-amd64_1.7.22~ubuntu14.04.1_amd64.deb
[00:48] <ObrienDave> i forgot you have a 64bit system
[00:48] <wilsonjl3> aha no problem
[00:49] <ObrienDave> and this file...
[00:49] <ObrienDave> https://launchpad.net/~pipelight/+archive/ubuntu/stable/+files/pipelight-multi_0.2.7.1~ubuntu14.04.1_amd64.deb
[00:49] <ObrienDave> install the pipelight first
[00:50] <wilsonjl3> ok, paused the other one
[00:50] <wilsonjl3> oh install
[00:50] <wilsonjl3> not download
[00:50] <wilsonjl3> :3
[00:50] <ObrienDave> you can d/l both
[00:52] <wilsonjl3> wine-silverlight is downloading, pipelight is crashing the software centre :P
[00:54] <ObrienDave> dang
[00:54] <wilsonjl3> keeps going unresponsive
[00:56] <ObrienDave> let me try to install it here.
[00:56] <wilsonjl3> ok
[00:59] <wilsonjl3> ObrienDave, i gotta go to sleep, im about to pass out on my comp. im sorry
[01:00] <wilsonjl3> abanabee7, good luck fixing the graphics glitches, have a good night both of you :)
[01:00] <abanabee7> awww, he quit before I could say goodnight to him

[01:01] <ObrienDave> k, dang i hate leaving something unresolved
[01:01] <xuboo> same here :)

[01:05] <ObrienDave> xuboo, not sure why alsamixer wont run
[01:07] <xuboo> its odd, lspci -k says I have an audio device

[03:55] <MavKen> I've been using xubuntu for a few months now... everyday I ssh into the same vps... how can I create a shortcut that opens terminal and run "ssh -p 17982 root@domain.com" ?
[03:59] <MavKen> nevermind..just figured it out
[14:11] <six86> Hello. What is the proper way to change xfce settings in the terminal? I want to change the number of virtual desktops for example and remove the "dock".
[14:12] <six86> Is the proper way to edit xfwm4.xml?
[14:23] <abanabee7> six86, I doubt the proper way would be to edit that xfwm4.xml, i looked @ mine, and its got all empty settings in it, & i have a pretty customized desktop from default, but i culd b wrong
[14:27] <six86> abanabee7: I just found xfconf-query
[14:27] <six86> seems to be the way to go
[14:28] <abanabee7> six86, ahhh, thats cool. Thanks. when u asked i was like, ooo, i wonder that too, thanks for a tiny new thing :)
[14:29] <six86> abanabee7: Now i just have to find out how to delete items
[14:31] <six86> I have it
[14:31] <abanabee7> six86, i would imagine you change the value from true to false, or from 1 to 0, or something that would tell it that you don't want that value
[14:32] <six86> -rR recursively resets values
[14:32] <six86> abanabee7: It was about removing a panel.
[14:34] <abanabee7> six86, thats cool, i love how things like that can be, a simple command can change your system. Thanks for the new info
[14:34] <six86> abanabee7: Yeah but my panel was not fully removed by this its stuck in the bottom now
[14:35] <six86> abanabee7: "xfce4-panel -r" and after that the panel is gone
[14:41] <abanabee7> six86, wouldn't that mean the panel is returned to the top? cause you reset the value, then restarted it so that the changes show
[14:41] <six86> there is nothing stated about panel-1 in xfconf anymore
[14:42] <six86> but something is stillt here because tha GUI shows 2 panels...
[14:43] <tweghrnjtgthjfx> Where does my porn save to on xubuntu?
[18:15] <Mountain_R> Hi guys I have a problem with the screensaver, previously there were installed the default screensaver but I was unable to stop it to switch off the monitor after few minutes, a user help me to unistall it and install xscreensaver 5.15.  It seems that the problem was fixed but now I have again the same problem, after only some minute The screen goes off. The strage thing is that xscreensaver is set to DOESN'T switch off and blank the scr
[18:15] <Mountain_R> een after 6 minutes. Please give me some advice guys...
[18:24] <MavKen> Mountain_R, sorry, any updates since it last worked?
[18:25] <MavKen> overkill... but run sudo apt-get clean -y && apt-get update -y && apt-get upgrade -y && apt-get dist-upgrade -y && apt-get autoremove -y
[18:28] <Mountain_R> Yes I have often done updates
[18:29] <Mountain_R> MavKen, do I have to run that command as one only command?
[18:29] <MavKen> yes
[18:30] <MavKen> that is my goto command if something is out of whack (lazy man approach)
[18:31] <MavKen> its a series of commands but one string so you dont have to enter separately
[18:31] <Mountain_R> MavKen, I do it now, can u tell me how to copy from Xchat if you know it?
[18:31] <Mountain_R> seems impossible on xchat, don't know why
[18:37] <MavKen> highlight, control + c
[18:37] <MavKen> I hate how chat doesnt have copy in rt click menu
[18:38] <bazhang> shift control c of highlighted
[18:39] <Mountain_R> ctrl+c  worked thanks
[18:39] <bazhang> the right click menu *does * have it, under window
[18:39] <Mountain_R> xchat doesn't have it
[18:41] <bazhang> #xchat will confirm
[18:49] <MavKen> no, not under window
[18:49] <MavKen> ctrl + c always works... just wondered why not included in rt click menu
[18:50] <MavKen> copy/paste are in rt click window when in text entry field. just not on actual chat contents
[18:51] <bazhang> highlighted--->shift control c works perfectly there
[18:51] <MavKen> hahahaha.... when you highlight, it automatically copies
[18:52] <MavKen> no need to cntrl c
[18:52] <MavKen> try it
[18:52] <bazhang> I have
[18:52] <MavKen> just asked on #xchat
[18:52] <Mountain_R> MavKen, I gave that command I will wait to check if worked, thanks. Can you please tell me what   -y   means?
[18:52] <Mountain_R> so I learn
[18:52] <MavKen> just means to answer yes
[18:53] <MavKen> instead of each prompt asking y or n
[18:53] <Mountain_R> ok got it
[19:00] <Mountain_R> MavKen, it doesn't work it switch off again the monitor
[19:00] <MavKen> uninstall then run sudo apt-get autoremove
[19:00] <MavKen> reboot
[19:02] <Mountain_R> from the ubuntu software centre is ok?
[19:04] <Mountain_R> MavKen,  i don't find any screensaver in the Ubuntu software center
[19:04] <MavKen> I dont use a screensaver...so not sure where to go from there
[19:05] <Mountain_R> i could try with: sudo apt-get remove screensaver
[19:05] <Mountain_R> ?
[19:09] <Mountain_R> i found it  it was simply xsceensaver
[19:10] <Mountain_R> to get the superuser I use:  sudo su
[19:10] <Mountain_R> it is ok or not?
[19:10] <bazhang> no
[19:10] <bazhang> just sudo
[19:11] <Mountain_R> just sudo don't gives me the superuser
[19:12] <bazhang> yes it does
[19:12] <bazhang> sudo apt-get remove packagename
[19:13] <Mountain_R> but if i do   sudo su    it ask me 1 time the password forever
[19:14] <Mountain_R> for all the terminal session
[19:14] <bazhang> thats not correct
[19:14] <bazhang> there is no root enabled
[19:14] <bazhang> use sudo -i for a root shell, if you must
[19:16] <Mountain_R> ok
[19:17] <Mountain_R> thanks
[19:18] <bazhang> np
[19:27] <wilsonjl3_> hey guys, anyone know why it keeps telling me to install silverlight when i wanna watch netflix even though i have pipelight and silverlight 5.1 enabled?
[19:28] <BarnabasDK> sudo -i /usr/bash
[19:28] <BarnabasDK> ?
[19:28] <BarnabasDK> seems a bit harsh ..
[19:28] <BarnabasDK> /usr/bin/bash
[19:28] <BarnabasDK> or did I misunderstand?
[19:29] <wilsonjl3_> is that for me?
[19:29] <BarnabasDK> more bazhang
[19:29] <wilsonjl3_> ah
[19:29] <bazhang> !netflix
[19:29] <BarnabasDK> sudo su - will actually run the login shell scripts as well afaik
[19:30] <BarnabasDK> and use the default (for root) shell
[19:30] <bazhang> there's no root enabled
[19:30] <BarnabasDK> so you cannot sudo to root?
[19:30] <BarnabasDK> sudo -u root
[19:30] <Mountain_R> I have uninstalled xscreensaver and the monitor still switch off.. how come?
[19:30] <bazhang> what are you trying to accomplish
[19:31] <BarnabasDK> well nothing I just saw you arguing against sudo su - (for root) which I think is the nice way to get root in a system
[19:32] <bazhang> ubuntu uses sudo alone
[19:39] <Mountain_R> the difference between sudo -i  and sudo su    is that you get these 2 results:  root@mypc:/home/mypc#    and   root@mypc:~#
[19:39] <Mountain_R> inverted results, sorry
[19:40] <Mountain_R> I dunno the difference between the two
[19:41] <Mountain_R> but both works good as root
[19:50] <BarnabasDK> Mountain_R, one will run the login scripts (su method) the other will not
[19:52] <Mountain_R> BarnabasDK, what's the difference
[19:56] <BarnabasDK> Mountain_R, normally when you log in a set of scripts are executed. the global ones, then .profile and perhaps .bashrc
[19:56] <BarnabasDK> su does that , sudo does not
[19:56] <BarnabasDK> afaik
[19:57] <Mountain_R> got it
[20:14] <Mountain_R> i am going crazy, light locker and xscreensaver are uninstalled but still the screen switch off after 1 minute of inactivity, what is it?
[20:15] <Guest25614> guys, i was using external monitor on vga and now when i disconnect it i see blank screen, my initramfs says: http://wdp.elenx.net/zdjecia/IMAG0527.jpg
[20:22] <krytarik> Mountain_R: There is "Power Manager" in the Settings Manager. :)
[21:36] <groja> Hello, I'm trying to create a swapfile for the system using Gparted.  I installed it using the software centre but I can't find the program to run it
[21:42] <bullgard4> What did you install?
[21:44] <bullgard4> groja: What did you install?
[21:44] <groja> Gparted, I think I've found it and linix was a 2Gb swap file.
[21:45] <bekks> What does "linix was a 2GB swap file" mean?
[21:45] <bullgard4> Please click Xubuntu > Applications menu > System > Gparted
[21:48] <groja> Its not listed in the system menu
[21:54] <bullgard4> groja: Please open a terminal. Enter 'sudo gparted'.
