pr0metheu5Hi, guys. Whenever I try to wake my computer up from hibernation, I get stuck at a dark screen. I hit CTRL+ALT+F1 and the last thing says "setversion 1.4 failed." Something about permission being denied.04:02
docsaintlyI have two screens on my computer with Xubuntu installed and I can't drag applications from one screen to another. Any ideas?06:00
vrkalakdamn, I know to do that, I can't remember ... give me a minute06:02
vrkalakdocsaintly, go to ... Xfce Menu > Setting > Window Manager > Advanced > Windows Snapping06:05
docsaintlyooh great, sec :D06:05
docsaintlyhrm, i mean a physical screen, not a workspace06:07
docsaintlybut both "wrap workspaces" buttons are checked06:07
docsaintlyThe right monitor is the primary monitor, and when I had two workspaces there, if I drag a window do the left, it moves it to the other workspace instead of the other screen. I disabled the second workspace and the problem is still there06:08
vrkalakdocsaintly, I have 2 monitor on my PC ... Xfce works them both06:08
docsaintlyvrkalak: they both work on mine as well. I can drag the cursor to the left monitor just fine06:09
docsaintlybut I can't drag a window over06:09
docsaintlyit gets stuck on the right screen06:09
vrkalaki see06:09
vrkalakthe left is the 'primary' screen, you can do drag-drop from left - right monitor dragged06:11
vrkalakI am on the my main PC, at the moment06:12

nickspacekhey folks. i'm on 14.04 and have been experiencing a frequent (but intermittent) problem going to standby for the last few weeks.10:55
nickspacekafter clicking standby through the shutdown menu, the screen goes black but not off (when standby works it goes turn off), then after approx. 10 seconds it shows the lock screen.10:56
nickspacek occasionally after logging in it displays a dbus error message "org.freedesktop.dbus.error.noreply". at this point the standby has started but not finished and my wifi is disabled. i am unable to shutdown the computer from the shutdown menu using any of the options, but if i open a terminal and do "sudo shutdown -h now" the shutdown process begins10:56
nickspacekhowever, while the shutdown process is running the computer goes to standby. when i turn it back on, the shutdown process completes (and it leaves a resume error in my /var/crash, which seems to be because it thinks that the resume failed since the machine is only on for a couple of seconds)10:58
nickspaceki have tried to find a way to track what process is not responding to the suspend, because it seems clear to me that something central is not responding like it should10:59
knomenickspacek, have you filed a bug?11:06
nickspaceknope, but i would be happy to if i knew what information would be useful in there. i haven't been able to find any details related to the dbus error11:11

Mountain_RHi to everyone, I have a problem fromseveral weeks, the monitor swith it down after 1 minute, I have uninstalled xscreensaver, light DM....(I don't remember the correct name), and I have deactivated power manager. Always the same problem. A Xubuntu IRC user suggested me to give this command in the terminal: xset q, the result is this  http://paste.ubuntu.com/7842772/  Seems that the timeout 60 is the answer, if I am correct how to chang14:14
Mountain_Re it? or better.. how to change it with a GUI like xscreensaver because seems that they have not effect on this system setting. Can someone help me even just to set the timeout? I am going mad. Thanks14:14
jmillhas anyone had issues logging into xubuntu14.04 after a recent update?15:01
jmillmine keeps looping back to the log in screen15:01
jmillIf anyone can point me to some helpful information I would appreciate it15:22
jmillI can log in to my account over a tty terminal but my log in keeps looping back15:23
jmillI don't know if this is an issue with light-locker or not15:23
jmillI did the chown username:username .Xauthority15:24
jmillbut that didn't do anything15:24
krytarikjmill: Try deleting it, and ".ICEauthority", as well - they will be recreated when needed.15:29
jmillshould I delete them while logged into the tty terminal and then switch over to the other one and try to log in again? or restart and try and log in?15:31
jmillneither way worked15:32
jmillkrytarik: any other ideas?15:35
krytarikjmill: Yep - check "~/.xsession-errors" and "/var/log/Xorg.0.log" for error messages that may be relevant.15:36
jmillkrytarik: the .xsession-errors had a few errors pertaining to my .profile, which I messed with, I reverted the changes I made there and it worked!!! thank you so much15:43
krytarikCool. :)15:43
xubuntu017I haz a question:17:16
xubuntu017Is it possible to install Xubuntu without a CD or a flash drive?17:16
vfwxubuntu017: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation17:17
xubuntu017Sooo... You just put the .iso in the root directory of the drive? Like, if the drive letter was F:, the .iso would be located at "F:/Xubuntuiso.iso"?17:22
xubuntu017Then you boot it?17:22

Xubuntu_Newbiedoes anyone here use synergy?19:23
Unit193I have.19:24
Xubuntu_NewbieI'm having an odd issue with the lock screen19:24
Xubuntu_Newbiewhen using ubuntu, when I lock the screen, synergy cuts out19:25
Xubuntu_Newbiehave you experienced that before?19:25
Unit193That'd make sense, but I don't use light-locker (with synergy).  It's a user process, so at the login screen it won't be able to take control of the system.19:26
Xubuntu_Newbieis there an alternative to light-locker on xubuntu for the lock screen19:27
Xubuntu_Newbieor a recommended lock screen19:27
Unit193There's a few, it used to use xscreensaver.19:27
snuggyfooI'm trying to install windows 7 from an iso without a SD card reader, cd-rom. I put the files on a secondary HD and made the partition bootable. When I boot it it shoes a grub recovery prompt. Anyone know why that would be coming up?19:30
