[02:32] aha, I found ubuntu drivers for my model on its manu website, I shall try now and see how it goes [02:36] panik, when it comes to wifi, you gotta make sure your in the scope of the device, for instance, if you tyring to use WIRELESS N on a G only wifi its gonna cause problems [02:36] i had the same problems for a while untill i figured that out [03:23] will xubuntu support ralink rt5360 in 14.04? [03:27] xubuntu698: a better question would be, will ralink support ubuntu 14.04.. since it will ultimately up to them.. i would try a live CD on the hardware and see [03:35] how can i get ralink rt5360 working on xubuntu 14.04LTS? [03:35] vigoos: ideally, ralink would provide you with a driver, as they do for windows.. but, where i would start is with a live CD and see if the device just works [03:35] !wifi | vigoos [03:35] vigoos: Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs [03:36] thanks.

[13:52] xubuntu067: backing up like that is always a matter of needs and what one is willling to maintain.. i say, if timeshift is meeting your needs, the update schedule wouldnt bother me [13:53] i mean, is there any security concerns? where a security patch is needed? not on a local machine like that likely.. if it has all the features you need, then, you dont need anything else [13:53] if the "backups" or restore points in that case are on the same hard drive, then, *when* that single hard drive fails, you lose your backups [13:59] I have a raid file server I keep everything important on. [13:59] but I've run into an issue on my laptop, for some reason using the headphones every once in a while kills the audio [14:00] and I've followed the instructions on every forum post on the topic I can find but their solutions don't work [14:00] so I wind up having to reinstall xubuntu to solve the problem [14:00] figured a system restore might be a better option [14:01] brb [14:06] Hello, i have problems with actualization: La actualización necesita un total de 94,5 M de espacio libre en el disco «/boot».

Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines. Enjoy your stay! [17:44] Im tired of having my screen black out on me every few minutes when watching videos online.... I have tried a LOT of things i found online but nothing worked... does anyone have a working fix? [18:00] hello, can i find a netboot install for xubuntu? [18:00] !mini [18:00] The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want. The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD [18:01] Of course, use the Xubuntu Desktop task. [18:01] not the same as a netboot actually, i need kernel+initrd image, like these http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/netboot/ [18:02] Ah, you mean real netboot, pxe style. [18:02] mmh, i'm actually a preseed file, i guess all i need is to set the right task inside it, will look at this [18:02] yep :) [18:05] tasksel tasksel/first multiselect standard, ubuntu-desktop [18:05] well, thanks :) [18:06] Sure, though I did nothing. I normally use the squashfs and PXE the live system. [18:09] looks interesting [18:10] i use to boot on chrooted nfsroot, makes things easier to update the live system [18:15] Does anyone have a working solution to prevent the screen saver when streaming video online? === Luyin_ is now known as Luyin === WLM is now known as WLM|druk [19:16] Hi guys. I'm having problems with my dual monitor positions not being loaded correctly (they switch places so that the right one is at the left and vice versa). I've tried both custom xorg.conf files and loading a ARandR startup script. Can anyone help? :) [19:16] This is after rebooting/login, I have to add [19:28] did you already try configuring with xfce4-settings? [19:29] under display? [19:34] fballs: Yes [19:35] nyone up for helping mem make an encrypted swap for 14.04 xubuntu so my laptop wont freeze when i put in hiberate :(? [19:39] Psil0Cybin: How is encrypted swap space going to help you as opposed to non-encrypted swap space? [19:41] SonikkuAmerica, well not encrypting it would ruin the whole point of my LVM encrypted installation that the Installation menu offers, so i guess id ideally want encrypted swap space if thats not possible then i guess any swap space because i am using a 1gb laptop [19:41] that dies often when i use programs [19:42] Psil0Cybin: I'd shrink a partition and add a swap-space partition, but LVM is just a pain so I don't use it [19:42] Psil0Cybin: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnableHibernateWithEncryptedSwap might help you, bit old afaik [19:43] hmmm so its just better to remove LVM perhaps? [19:43] and start over... [19:43] blast why does ubuntu taunt me with these options in the install menu :P [19:44] I tried LVM once. Never again. It screws around with your /boot partition, making [ sudo update-grub ] impossible to invoke because it runs out of space === WLM|druk is now known as WLM|weg [20:37] i have xubuntu. i want to change to ubuntu. i burnt the iso onto a dvd-r. it burned the contents. i have no idea how to boot it. [20:37] i did a md5sum and got good results [20:38] zacwalls, burned how [20:39] as contents [20:39] burned using what tool zacwalls [20:40] so you burned as data, and not as an image [20:40] im not sure what the script is called. [20:41] zacwalls, then please find out [20:41] I'm not sure why you didn't just install ubuntu-desktop [20:41] how [20:41] it runs wubi [20:41] or whatever [20:42] Gah, wubi. [20:42] * genii runs away [20:42] ikr [20:42] i hate it too\ [20:42] zacwalls, a wubi install is from within windows, not as you are describing it [20:43] i know. but the iso contains wubi [20:43] all of the ISOs have wubi. you DON'T have to run it [20:43] good [20:44] how do i boot [20:44] zacwalls, put the DVD in your drive and reboot the computer. [20:44] then what? [20:44] i have done that [20:45] that's how you boot the DVD. if it didn't boot, check your BIOS settings for boot priority to make sure it tries to boot from the DVD: [20:46] if that's set up correctly, and the DVD is not booted, then the DVD is burnt wrong. [20:48] http://imgur.com/nPqAo4O [20:49] where in bios do i go. boot. and from there where do i go. what do i do. [20:49] just try booting your computer with the DVD in first. [20:50] again? [20:50] you didn't tell us if you did that or not. i am not a telepathic. [20:51] i did say that. [20:51] i don't know what your BIOS is like exactly, but look for boot order/priority. [20:51] oh never mind sorry [20:51] okay [20:52] brb [20:57] the priority is dvd-rom drive and when i boot ub it says "dvd-rom boot type 1 or 2" and then it gives me an option for 1 or 2 and ether way it is xubuntu that boots [20:58] so the DVD does not boot at all? [20:58] no [20:58] why dont you just install ubuntu-desktop from terminal? [20:59] i did. i just have alot of time and want ubuntu [20:59] you have it [20:59] yes [21:00] ok, i'm confused, if you have a running Ubuntu, why are you trying to install it? [21:01] it is xubuntu with ubuntu desktop [21:01] zacwalls, no, it's ubuntu with both xubuntu and ubuntu desktops. [21:01] so? it is still the same core system. no difference [21:01] i get bored [21:02] obviously [21:02] i just want a diffrent os [21:02] they're the SAME os [21:02] just different DEs [21:03] i know. any recommendations? i like debain distro. and of corse linux [21:04] zacwalls, you can join ##linux for that kind of questions [21:04] *head desks and walks away* [21:04] okay [21:05] for some reason i cant send to that channel [21:05] maybe you are quieted or banned from that channel. you need to resolve that with their ops. [21:05] aha [21:05] #debian then zacwalls [21:07] thanks [21:12] Any comments on bug #1303736 (Blank screen on resume) not fixed in 14.04.1 as stated in release notes?

[21:15] Black screen on resume just as all contributors have complained of. It seems it's NOT fixed [21:15] xubuntu677, then file a new bug. [21:15] xubuntu677, the original issue is indeed fixed. [21:16] ok thanks [21:31] New Bug on "Black screen on resume" filed under Bug #1357090 [21:31] bug 1357090 in xubuntu-default-settings (Ubuntu) "Black screen on resume Xubuntu 14.04.1 #1303736 NOT fixed" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1357090 [21:32] xubuntu677, thanks [21:41] hello. which of these entires to i select to boot? http://imgur.com/0y2vyC2 [21:42] move the third line to the top to default to xubuntu boot [21:43] don't forget to save before exiting [21:43] ty. so what is the difference between one marked just Ubuntu then? [21:44] that should be the same as the third line, however, i can't get that one to update with the kernel. i manually edit the Ubuntu entry [21:45] difference between Ubuntu and 3.13.0 generic [21:45] okay ty [21:45] why it not says 14.04? [21:45] because the kernel is 3.13.0-34 [21:46] ty ObrienDave [21:46] yw [23:25] hello. where is the restart button for Xubuntu LTS? I upgraded and I cant find it [23:26] click your name at the top [23:26] just shows logout or shutdown [23:26] under logout [23:26] then it logs me out and then i can choose restart. is there no faster way? [23:26] 'Logout' doesn't just log you out, it gives you options. Try the one in the menu to see. [23:27] it does take me to login screen yes where restart is option, but i wouldlike to know if this is intentional [23:27] yes it is [23:27] i think there used to be a dedicated restart button [23:27] ok ty ObrienDave [23:28] what is the sudo command to restart if its same thing? [23:29] sudo reboot [23:29] iirc [23:30] you can also hold Alt-SysRq B for reboot [23:30] w/e [23:31] ObrienDave: BY default, sysrq is disabled in Ubuntu, afaik. [23:31] i know REISUB works in Xubuntu [23:31] Look in /etc/sysctl.d/10-magic-sysrq.conf to see what's enabled. [23:33] I need a free program that is like microsoft office publisher, that can open publisher files. [23:35] shane____, what format are those files? not familiar with publisher [23:35] you mean Word? [23:35] Publisher, so pub files. [23:39] no not word its like word, but with more control..better for making advertising and the like...and yea it is a .pub file..worst comes to worst I can yous office online, but I would rather have a program that runs on this [23:42] shane____, seems it's possible to use LibreOffice. YMMV http://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/14/can-i-use-microsoft-publisher-files-with-libreoffice/ [23:47] I am in love with xubuntu's compositor, what is its name? how can I learn its name?
