Gus81Hello, I speak Spanish. I would like to install compiz and emerald in Xubuntu 14.04, but emerald is not in the repositories. I can download from ppa? Packages emerald and emerald-themes ?03:51
xangua! Emerald03:53
ubottuemerald is an obsolete window decorator for compiz. It's unsupported and unmaintained, making issues with it very hard to diagnose and fix. There are no known, supported alternatives.03:53
Unit193!info compton03:53
ubottucompton (source: compton): compositor for X11, based on xcompmgr. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.1~beta2-1 (trusty), package size 97 kB, installed size 243 kB03:54
Gus81ah, did not know ...03:55
Gus81can be used without compiz window decorator?03:56
holsteinGus81: compton doesnt require compiz03:57
holsteinif i wanted compositing, i would just try the xfce one included first.. tick the box in the extra settings for the window manager03:58
Unit193It's not as shiny, but still creates effects if you have the right config setup.03:58
holsteindepends on the needs, i suppose..03:58
Gus81sorry for my English, I help with google translator / I use google translator but not always03:58
Unit193!es03:59
ubottuEn la mayoría de los canales de Ubuntu, se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español entre al canal #ubuntu-es; escriba " /join #ubuntu-es " (sin comillas) y presione intro.03:59
xanguaGus81: you can use compiz with metacity04:00
holsteinwindow manager tweaks - compositor04:00
Gus81besides all compiz packages which should install more?04:00
Gus81or that you should not install?04:01
holsteini would try the included compositor, then compton, then mess around with compiz.. personally, i find compiz more trouble than its worth04:01

ollie_hey, when i play video my xubuntu crashes, i have installed drivers but it still oders it, the whole os crashes and i have to turn it on and oof, I'm worried this will damage the hardware and I have no kidea what is causing the problem15:20
ollie_*does it15:21
cfhowlettollie_, video from DVD?15:21
ollie_no mp415:21
ollie_on parole and vlc15:21
cfhowlettollie_, sudo apt-get install xubuntu-restricted-extras && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade15:21
ObrienDaveinstall xubuntu-restricted-extras15:22
cfhowlettollie_, first command for multimedia codecs, 2nd to get your system to latest packages in the distro repo15:22
ollie_i've done the first one, shall i do it again, or just the second one?15:23
cfhowlettollie_, 2nd15:23
ollie_http://paste.ubuntu.com/8107026/15:25
ollie_everything else seems to work fine15:25
ObrienDaveollie_, it's ok to paste single lines here15:25
ollie_ok15:25
ElderDryasAFAIK, VLC doesn't need restricted extras to work correctly, so I'd think there is something else wrong here.15:26
ElderDryasollie_: Do ALL videos crash the system or just some/one?15:27
cfhowlettElderDryas, VLC comes with its own set of codecs.15:28
ElderDryascfhowlett: my point exactly :)15:28

ollie_does this look like it might help?15:32
cfhowlett!nvidia | ollie      for nvidia15:32
ubottuollie      for nvidia: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto15:32
ElderDryasollie_: From what I can gather, nvidia suggests this driver for your card  http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/59827/en-us15:36
ElderDryasBut I'd try the 'buntu driver installer before trying to install a driver on my own.15:37
ollie_what is that?15:37
ElderDryasre: cfhowlett's link15:37
ollie_i have already15:38
ElderDryassee: Basic Installation Instructions15:38
ElderDryasgotta run...good luck15:39
ollie_i have run restricted extras and dist upgrade15:39
ollie_after the dist upgrade terminal said this15:40
ollie_http://paste.ubuntu.com/8107026/15:40
ollie_I don't how to interpret that, it seems like it is saying that thee was no problem with the driver instilation15:41
ObrienDaveno, it's saying all packages are current15:41
ollie_ok, so that would suggest it is not the driver causing the problem?15:42
ollie_becuase i have install the drivers three times now15:42
ollie_good it be a problem with flash?15:46
ObrienDaveit could be15:46
ollie_the nvivdia driver download said invalid byte sequnce in conversion input15:48
ollie_though vids on firefox work fine15:49
ollie_I'm very confused and have no idea how to approach this problem15:50
m3n3chm0hello all16:02
m3n3chm0i'm having issue on thunar, pressing Supr key to delete files on NTFS partitions... i receive the message 'trash folder can't found or create'... it just happen on pressing supr key, if i use right button and delete... it works perfectly... help :)16:04
m3n3chm0this is the line of that ntfs partition in fstab /dev/disk/by-uuid/6293D8B274BE0A40 /mnt/6293D8B274BE0A40 auto nosuid,nodev,nofail,x-gvfs-show 0 016:09
m3n3chm0is it ok ?16:09
m3n3chm0i'm having issue on thunar, pressing Supr key to delete files on NTFS partitions... i receive the message 'trash folder can't found or create'... it just happen on pressing supr key, if i use right button and delete... it works perfectly... help :)16:54
holsteini would just use the right button, or the delete key.. i have never tried using the super key to delete.. it could be simply permissions related wiht the ntfs partition16:55
holsteini would consider trying to go native linux formats ASAP, then, you will likely not experience any serious glitches16:56
m3n3chm0i have to mean delete key, Supr, not super16:58
m3n3chm0it doesn't delete files16:58
m3n3chm0using delete key16:58
holsteinm3n3chm0: ok.. what would i do? try deleting in the command line to see if there is helpful output... i would also consider just accepting the "issues" since its a windows native format with likely some compromises associated17:01
m3n3chm0ok17:02
holstein!ntfs17:03
ubottuTo view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - For write access, see !NTFS-3g or !FUSE17:03
m3n3chm0no problem using richt button then delete works17:03
m3n3chm0holstein i have this line in fstab17:04
m3n3chm0/dev/sda7 /media/DATOS ntfs-3g auto,rw,users,umask=000 0 017:04
m3n3chm0maybe i need to add my uid ?17:05
holsteinm3n3chm0: i do it by uuid.. but, you can easily load up a live CD and attach the ntfs drive/partition, and "bypass" your fstab for troubleshooting17:05
holsteinbasically, i see it like this.. the creators/maintainers of ntfs never promise "manage the filesystem with any operating system you like, such as ubuntu/xubuntu/linux"... so, i follow guides and try and be open to compromises17:06
holsteini feel using a live CD is a nice troubleshooting step to remove your config, and the configurations changes you have made to the operating system from the equation17:07
holsteinotherwise, try deleting from the command line, see if you get a helpful error message.. try running thunar from the command line and see if you get error messages17:08
xubuntu727Hi17:21
ObrienDavegreetings and welcome17:21

xubuntu691When i install xubuntu shud i use IDE or AHCI mode on the disk ?17:22
xubuntu727xubuntu 14.04 where i can find wi fi?17:22
holsteinxubuntu691: you are installing to a usb stick?17:24

ubottuUbuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall - Don't want to use a CD? See http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate17:24
xubuntu691I am installing from a usb stick.17:26
holsteinxubuntu691: i would do what is "best" for the target system17:26
xubuntu691what is best AHCI or IDE ? Are Xubuntu support AHCI ?17:26
holsteincould be there are hardware limitations that dictate which of those you need to do17:27
holstein"You will generally have no problem with Ubuntu when you enable AHCI mode, because it detects this mode automatically."17:27
holsteinhttp://askubuntu.com/questions/315703/does-ubuntu-support-sata-drives-in-ahci-mode17:27
holsteinxubuntu691: i personally would do whatever works "best" with the hardware17:28
holsteinwith the bios, or the machine.. i would look and see what is already there, and why.. and check the warranty if relevant17:28
xubuntu691I dont know.. the AHCI was for windows.. i am not sure how it is with linux.17:30
holsteinxubuntu691: as stated above, ubuntu detect the mode automatically17:30
holsteini would just try it "as-is" and change if i run into problems after researching17:31
m3n3chm0holstein fixed, i just added uid=1000 now i cant delte using delete key :)17:36
xubuntu691Is someone know when 14.04.2 will be ready ?17:53
