The errors start at line 1128 of this dmesg output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7958928/ [07:37] I'm guessing there's some special SSD magic I didn't do. Can I do it now, or did I miss something during the install? [08:29] Isvara: i would try to use a different sata port and sata cable [09:00] koegs: Well, well. Third cable I tried and it seems to be working now. [10:20] how do i add a xfce native sound control to the task bar? [10:23] Xfce native?

[11:38] do you have an answer [11:39] I presume your question is how you can have them mounted on bootup? [11:42] yes [11:43] I'd use fstab. [11:43] !fstab [11:43] The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions [11:52] can you please tell my 1,2,3 steps to solve that i'm a new linux user [11:53] how can we help you?

[13:31] hei, how do I reset synaptic's fileters? [13:32] *filters [13:37] nevermind [13:37] synatpic filter menu is completely buggy [13:37] it tends to reset all filters, even existing ones, as soon as you click on them [13:37] great... [13:37] *even default ones [14:54] Excuse me, will xubuntu 14.04.1 be available for install via the Update Manager? [14:55] hello. My wireless is at9287. It is unstable, disconnect internet after running for a while. Ubuntu14.04 show me error "ath: phy0: Failed to stop TX DMA, queues=0x18f!". Error log is here:http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2237796. Anyone had met this problem? [14:57] wulong710: looks like you're getting good support on the forum. [14:57] xubuntu410, yeah. i think 14.04.1 is just 14.04 + packages upgrades since that time. [14:58] jamesOr2: Probably. But it's not available as an upgrade from the Update Manager, only 12.10. [14:58] jamesOr2: I thought it should be available after the first point release. [14:59] wulong710: yes .I found it one minite ago. Thank you . [15:03] xubuntu410, and you're on what version now? [15:04] 12.04 [15:04] (Sorry, neglected to mention that.) [15:04] "Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS" [15:04] !12.04 [15:04] Xubuntu 12.04 LTS (Precise Pangolin) is the current !LTS release of Xubuntu. Download at http://xubuntu.org/getxubuntu Release notes at http://xubuntu.org/news/12-04-release/ [15:04] ahh. yeah. then you're supposed to get the LTS notification. [15:05] Yeah, and I've checked the box in Update Manager -> settings. [15:05] If I set it to "tell me about any new release", it tells me about 12.10. [15:06] If I set it to "tell me only about LTS release", it doesn't say anything is available. [15:06] looks like the the omg ubuntu forum there are some folks saying they aren't getting the notification either. [15:06] not sure. [15:06] * xubuntu410 is glad it isn't just him. [15:06] LTS will only give LTS release updates [15:06] * xubuntu410 nods. [15:06] you wont get 12.10, nor 13.04, nor 13.10, just 14.04 [15:07] That's what I want. [15:07] then do sudo do-release-upgrade [15:07] Great, I'll give that a go, thanks! [15:07] Checking for a new Ubuntu release No new release found [15:08] mmm [15:08] go to the settings manager and look for "software and updates" [15:08] you on an up-to-date repo? [15:09] Just got patches on libc stuff this morning. [15:09] There is no "Software and Updates" in the settings manager. [15:10] there go to the third tab "updates" there check that the "notify on updates"is check to Long term releases" [15:10] xubuntu410, launch software-properties-gtk from a terminal [15:11] Got it. It is indeed set to "For long-term support versions". [15:11] weird [15:11] change it to any? [15:12] i don't know if thats recomendable tho [15:12] If I change that to "For any new version", then update, I get notified about 12.10. [15:12] mmm [15:12] in the first tab are you using the main ubuntu repos? [15:12] So I'm thinking there's a trigger it's looking for somewhere in xubuntu land that it's not finding. [15:12] Top four boxes are checked. [15:13] yeah, but the "download from" [15:13] maybe the repo you are using has not mirrored the new release? [15:14] sorry im guessing here [15:14] Download from: "Server for United States". [15:14] GridCube: I appreciate the guesses, thanks. (: [15:14] xubuntu410, mmm that should have it, try changing it to a different one? [15:15] Changing it to "Main server" doesn't have the desired result. [15:16] xubuntu410, you tried main server, updated and checked upgrades already? [15:17] Yes. [15:17] Trying a few different ones just in case... [15:17] xubuntu410, sorry, i would suggest you to fill a bug report agains do-release-upgrade and state your case [15:18] Will do. E-mail? [15:19] Or is it on launchpad? [15:20] xubuntu410, it would be ubuntu-bug do-release-upgrade [15:20] but first try this [15:20] sudo do-release-upgrade -d [15:20] Ah, got it, thanks. (: [15:22] Somethings working.... [15:22] Just not sure what it is yet.... [15:22] -d is for --devel version, it should work [15:22] "Do you want to start the upgrade?" [15:22] Not sure what upgrade it's suggesting. [15:23] did you remember to change the setting to long term realease back in the settings? [15:23] if you did then its proposing 14.04 to you [15:23] Getting out of that, and now update manager is notifying me of many new updates. [15:24] authenticate 'trusty.tar.gz' against 'trusty.tar.gz.gpg' [15:24] !trusty [15:24] Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (Trusty Tahr) is the current release of Ubuntu. Download at http://releases.ubuntu.com/14.04 - Read the release notes at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TrustyTahr/ReleaseNotes [15:24] :3 [15:24] Oh, goodie. It is indeed hitting 14.04. [15:24] Yay, thanks GC! [15:24] nvm [15:25] "nvm"? [15:25] nevermind [15:25] Oh. [15:25] So how do I kick this upstairs now? [15:25] sorry? [15:26] Should I report this as a bug still? [15:26] Strange that it works only in devel version. [15:27] Schrodinbug. [15:27] maybe, i don't know, i don't think it would harm if you report it :) probably theres a report already tho [15:28] Oh, it's not devel mode for the tool. It's installing a devel release. [15:29] So it looks like 14.04.1 hasn't been marked as stable yet. [15:30] mmhm, that might be it [15:30] Meh, it'll do. [15:31] If I hit bugs then it'll help make it stable. [15:31] Thank you for your help! [15:32] no problem [15:48] GridCube: upgrade completed with some errors. Gonna kick the box now and see how she does. If you don't hear from me again, all is well. Thanks again! (: [15:48] xubuntu410, [15:49] before you do remenber to clean your ~/.config directory so you get default desktop settings [15:49] Will do, thanks! [15:49] they changed a whole lot [15:49] purging ~/.config/xfce4 will make things easier for you [15:49] mv .config/ .config-10.04 [15:50] sure, that will remove all the configs :) [15:50] also 12.04 [15:50] Eh, that's what I meant.... [15:50] very well [15:50] Living in the past... (: [15:51] * xubuntu410 takes a deep breath, and........ [15:53] ... and? [16:06] hi [16:06] just instaled xubuntu 12.04 in an old Packard Bell Hera C Laptop [16:07] the physical secondary button is broken, and the right click on the touch pad is not working neither [16:08] I would like to know how can I create a keyboard map to simulate a right click when pressing CTRL + LeftClick [16:08] ves: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingTouchpadDetection [16:14] thanks for the link [16:15] i just download enable-rightbutton.sh [16:15] but I get this message: porperty Synaptys Soft Button Areas doesn't exist. you need to specify its type and format [16:16] lookin in google now [16:37] just followed instructions from here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/+bug/944961 [16:37] Ubuntu bug 944961 in xserver-xorg-input-synaptics (Ubuntu) "Can't enable Right Button Area on Elantech ETPS/2 Clickpad" [Undecided,Confirmed] [16:37] I was able to get the 4 value parameters [16:37] but when trying to run xinput set-prop devId 324 ..... [16:37] it says that property 324 doesn't exists [16:51] sometimes I cannot open sftp folder in thunar without restarting. [16:51] I get messages like this:"The name :1.900 was not provided by any .service files" [16:51] do I need to reset sftp mounts somehow? how? [18:25] i am just testing this [18:26] i am doing a install of xubuntu [18:26] hi [18:27] i hope the graphics works better on this machin then linux mint 13 did. [18:27] Above all else, choose your graphics card carefully. :) [18:28] xubuntu801: which graphics adapter do you have then? [18:29] i use the one onboard a old dell optiplex gx260 [18:30] Ah, so 82845G/GL? [18:30] i dont have all numbers i my head but it seems right [18:31] Have fun. :P [18:32] At least true color is the default again. [18:33] for curiousa when i am looking for programs to install in linux mint 13, i can not read the small text under programname. [18:34] i've got one of those [18:34] did you have to replace all the capacitors yet? [18:35] no [18:35] but i think i have a bad dvd reader [18:35] if it randomly crashes or turns off its the capacitors [18:36] on the motherboard or powersupply [18:36] motherboard [18:37] wow they got sued over it, i didn't know that: http://www.maximumpc.com/article/home/dell_settles_court_over_alleged_defective_capacitor_cover- [18:37] no fun replacing caps on motherboard [18:37] it's fairly easy to do and you can buy a kit with all the right caps [18:37] probably not worth it now though, the kit would cost more than the PC is worth [18:38] i believe so [18:38] i got mine for free because it died and dell just sent us a new one [18:38] (at work) [18:39] my install is done now, and need to reboot [18:39] have a nice evening all [18:40] and thanx for all info [19:53] hello [19:54] hello how lock numlock at boot ? (xubuntu 14.04) [19:55] sorry for my english, i'm french [19:56] settings, keyboard, top of window [19:58] restore numlock.... no effect, activated or not [20:00] check the box, it stays how it was when rebooting [20:02] i try [20:02] thanks :-) [20:02] bye === not_phunyguy is now known as phunyguy [21:11] how can I post a feature request for the next xubuntu release? :D [21:15] mission: That would either go in an issue tracker...which one (Xubuntu, Ubuntu, some smaller *buntu team, or upstream) depends on the request...if you expand we can point you in the right direction. [21:16] mission: also, if in doubt, patches are welcome ;) [21:20] mission: first place would be the -devel mailing list, xubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com but also read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/Processes release cycle [21:21] Thank you! There is just 1 thing I really miss: the "Wacom Tablet" GUI tool from Ubuntu. For some reason it doesn't start in Xubuntu [21:24] mission: have you looked for it in the repos? [21:27] it's available in the Ubuntu Software Center as 'Wacom Tablet' but it doesn't seem to work with XFCE :( [21:29] that would probably be a bug then mission :) [21:29] have you tried running it from a terminal? [21:30] you've already filed a bug report some time ago [21:30] bug 1325274 [21:30] bug 1325274 in wacom-tools (Ubuntu) "Wacom Control Panel GUI doesn't work on Xubuntu 14.04" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1325274 [21:31] it this the same issue? [21:34] thanks brainwash [21:39] yup it's the same one :( still no idea how to make it to work [21:51] mission: so, the "Wacom Tablet" GUI tool from ubuntu is actually an applet for the gnome control center [21:55] therefore, it will be only visible in the gnome control center [21:55] :( does it mean I'd have to ask XFCE team to include a similar solution instead? [21:56] not sure if there is any similar solution [21:57] a solution which does not heavily depend on GNOME or KDE libraries and running daemons [21:57] you should be able to install the gnome control center (+ additional packages for the wacom applet) in xubuntu [21:58] hopefully it will work just fine :) [21:58] Hi all -- I have a question about session manager -- does anyone have any expertise? [21:58] I think I'm gonna try, but could it break my desktop anyhow? :D === xubuntu929 is now known as adachan [21:59] I can boot a vm to check [21:59] mission: well, it could mess with your desktop [22:01] adachan: just ask your actual question [22:02] i am running some rsyncs that will take weeks to complete (TBs and TBs) [22:02] and id like to not have to restart these evertime i log in -- if I use xrdp i can save this session but xrdp is quite buggy [22:03] ive noticed that the session manager doesnt really seem to save the session, but rather the apps that were running -- is this correct, or am I doing something wrong? [22:03] yes, it basically just launches the previous apps and tries to assign them to the correct workspace if possible [22:04] ahhh -- ok thats perfect - it wont do what I want, but good to know [22:04] thanks! [22:06] adachan: if you want to keep the rsync process running, why not start it in a screen/tmux/byobu-session? [22:08] the process does keep running when i exit the ssh Y session that i forward xfce-desktop [22:08] but i can never get back into this when i log in again [22:09] im not familiar with screen/tmux/byobu -- can you give a quick description of what it does? [22:10] if you start the rsync in a byobu-session, it will keep running if you just "detach" from the byobu-session [22:10] can that session be logged into from multiple systems [22:10] yes, indeed [22:10] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Byobu [22:10] ok -- thanks -- lemme go read about this [22:18] mission: so *have* you tried running it from a terminal ? [22:22] elfy: nope, actually I dunno what the exact name is and not sure how to find it [22:22] try wacompl [22:23] not found :( [22:26] mission: just caught up - so you've not actually installed it yet? the unity control centre or whatever it's called? [22:28] I do have it installed using Control Centre, but it doesn't show me the name so I'm not sure how to start it from the console :( [22:28] mmm - I'm just updating a vm to look [22:28] would have been quicker to reinstall that ... === bazhang_ is now known as bazhang [23:38] hi guys! first time for me here... can't find a way to set the resolution of my notebook! Olvetti Olibook P1500... only resolution 640x480 [23:41] hi there :) [23:41] I'd check if that is not a driver issue [23:43] I can't find the type of GPU you have there
