| xubuntu86w | hello | 01:12 |
| xubuntu86w | I need a hand uninstalling windows and runing ubuntu | 01:13 |
| facepalm | Are there any rules about xubuntu logo usage? I was making some wallpapers and wanted to check before sharing any. I looked on the website but apparently I'm just not finding what I'm looking for. | 01:29 |
| xangua | I would asume the same as ubuntu logo¿ http://www.ubuntu.com/legal/terms-and-policies/intellectual-property-policy | 01:32 |
| facepalm | Ah thanks, I'll read that over in the morning when my eyes can handle it haha | 01:34 |
| manlin | hi, pressing Ctrl+F2 takes me to the second virtual terminal. how can i disable this as I want to use Ctrl+F2 as a shortcut for another application (byobu)? | 08:48 |
| brainwash | ctrl+alt+f2 is the default keybind which should take you to tty2 | 08:50 |
| brainwash | does anything trigger the alt modifier? | 08:51 |
| manlin | brainwash: ctl+alt+f2 takes me to another terminal session. but ctl+f2 takes me to another X desktop session. | 08:52 |
| manlin | I don't have any alt modifiers | 08:52 |
| manlin | i wanted to use ctl+f2 shortcut to do a vertical split on Byobu | 08:52 |
| brainwash | so you mean 2nd tab | 08:52 |
| brainwash | in Byobu | 08:53 |
| manlin | no.. just split the screen vertically in Byobu | 08:53 |
| brainwash | well, you should read the manual page, maybe it is possible to remap this keybind | 08:53 |
| manlin | I wanted to stick with the default key bindings for byobu. If this is a problem for me then I will have to remap it in Byobu somehow. Thanks | 08:54 |
| brainwash | it does seem to be a xubuntu specific problem | 08:55 |
| manlin | yeah... | 08:55 |
| brainwash | maybe there's a Byobu channel where you could ask | 08:55 |
| manlin | That's the first place I asked and no response. There were only 15 nicks and none of them seem to be alive | 08:56 |
| brainwash | there is https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/byobu | 08:58 |
| manlin | thanks brainwash | 08:58 |
| brainwash | you could also try and ask the dev directly | 08:58 |
| brainwash | https://launchpad.net/~kirkland | 08:59 |
| brainwash | his freenode nick is "kirkland" | 08:59 |
| manlin | cool.. will try to do that.. thanks | 08:59 |
| brainwash | :) | 08:59 |
| manlin | brainwash: sorted. Changed the keyboard mappings for xfce4 shortcut.!! | 09:08 |
| ted2 | Does anyone know if I can use an alternative to icedtea-plugin on 14.10 ? It seems to be broken for alot of people | 09:33 |
| knosys | Hey good day. There used to be a graphic interface, somthing called "package manager symantec or something like that was the name. It was few years ago. It doesnt exist anymore? i remember it was like tha apt-get, but u could find information about each package. | 10:23 |
| knosys | Im sure there is a command to get info still.. Just wondering what happened with that option | 10:24 |
| knome | knosys, the synaptic package manager is still available in the repositories | 10:31 |
| knosys | aaaahh , i see. Thanks | 10:49 |
| xubuntu65w | Hello, trying to find correct drivers for lexmark pro 915 printer | 10:58 |
| xubuntu014a | When i goto the software center history updates wy is it freezing. ? | 12:15 |
| pitchdark | bluetooth question... A fresh install of Ubuntu 14.04 and bluetooth works out of the box. However, the same is not true for Xubuntu 14.04 or any version of Xubuntu. | 12:33 |
| pitchdark | My adapter can see devices, but connections fail | 12:34 |
| pitchdark | Connection Failed: Stream setup failed | 12:34 |
| xubuntu014a | pitchdark: i get bluetooth working and never have any problems. | 12:35 |
| pitchdark | How do I go about mirroring the same software + configuration that I find successful on Ubuntu | 12:35 |
| pitchdark | it's one of the few things that makes me dual boot back into Ubuntu + Unity | 12:36 |
| pitchdark | can I possibly uninstall all bluetooth related software and reinstall? | 12:36 |
| pitchdark | fwiw, the same is true for Mint 16,17 XFCE | 12:37 |
| pitchdark | however, other mint flavors work fine | 12:37 |
| pitchdark | i'm not a mint fan, though and prefer xubuntu | 12:37 |
| xubuntu014a | pitchdark: maybe it is true i have never transfered files with bluetooth in linux.. i tought it will work.. i need to test. | 12:53 |

| Mark___ | Why is the software center history updates freezing when i try to look at it ? | 13:25 |
| brainwash | Mark___: does it freeze forever or recover after some time? | 13:46 |
| xubuntu34w | hello | 14:16 |
| ObrienDave | Greetings & Welcome | 14:17 |
| xubuntu34w | i have a problem...not recognizing the cd/dvd player....i am trying to install a windows 7 disk and even tho i changed the boot order to cd/dvd it still boots to xubunto | 14:19 |
| xubuntu34w | i am using an compac f700 notebook with xubunto 14 installed..but i need to have windows for work | 14:20 |
| ObrienDave | you should install Windows first then install Xubuntu. dual boot works better that way | 14:22 |
| xubuntu34w | xubuntu came installed on the notebook i would do that if i could get it to not boot to xubunto | 14:23 |
| Hedgework | xubuntu34w: The windows installer will nuke Xubuntu, so you'd better have a good back-up of that install. | 14:29 |
| Hedgework | (Or, depending on your needs, just run windows in a VM instead of dual-booting) | 14:29 |
| xubuntu34w | i would like to uninstall xubuntu and replace it with 7 but when i boot the notebook it won't boot from the windows disk.. i have the right order set in the bios but it just boots to xubuntu... | 14:31 |
| Hedgework | xubuntu34w: That's unusual to say the least. Is the DVD drive internal or USB or something else? | 14:33 |
| xubuntu34w | internal | 14:34 |
| Hedgework | Is it known-good (i.e. can xubuntu read a disk you put in there, demonstrating that the drive isn't broken)? | 14:34 |
| xubuntu34w | i am not sure even where to look....under devices the drive is not listed | 14:35 |
| Hedgework | xubuntu34w: get to a command line, I'll walk you through a thing or two | 14:36 |
| Hedgework | However, keep in mind that I'm @work so I may disappear occasionally | 14:36 |
| xubuntu34w | i am not familiar with xubuntu so you will have to walk me thru from the begining | 14:37 |
| vrkalak | Hedgework, try > http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/ | 14:37 |
| Hedgework | vrkalak: I think you may have meant that for xubuntu34w ? | 14:40 |
| Hedgework | xubuntu34w: CHeck the link vrkalak gave, or look for anything that says 'terminal', 'terminal emulator', 'command line', or 'shell'...my xubuntu installs do not use the default UI, so if you want me to tell you where to find that you will have to wait an hour or three until I can close all my work stuff and switch to the default desktop environment. | 14:41 |
| Hedgework | xubuntu34w: This is why when helping people, I encourage them to use command-line tools, because those tools are consistent regardless of the user interfaces one prefers. :) | 14:41 |
| vrkalak | Hedgework, oops, sorry | 14:42 |
| xubuntu34w | let me look | 14:42 |
| vrkalak | xubuntu34w, try this > http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/ | 14:42 |
| Hedgework | vrkalak: No problem. :) | 14:42 |
| knome | xubuntu34w, http://docs.xubuntu.org/ | 14:43 |
| knome | xubuntu34w, or "help" in the application menu | 14:43 |
| xubuntu34w | got the terminal window | 14:44 |
| === aziz_ is now known as aziz | ||
| xubuntu34w | and command line | 14:47 |
| Hedgework | cool | 14:47 |
| Hedgework | xubuntu34w: the command "lsblk" (just type it without quotes and hit enter) will show you all the block (storage) devices on your machine. | 14:49 |
| Hedgework | xubuntu34w: The DVD drive will probably be listed as 'sr0' though 'cdrom' or something is also possible. Unless you are on a very old (IDE) system, it will not be listed as anything starting with 'sd'. | 14:50 |
| Hedgework | Its size is irrelevant, but the type is probably 'rom' | 14:50 |
| xubuntu34w | sda1,sda2,sda5 | 14:50 |
| Hedgework | Okay, so you have only one hard disk being detected ('sd' indicates a scsi or sata hard disk, the letter is which disk, the number is which partition on that disk) | 14:51 |
| xubuntu34w | right so no cd/dvd is listed | 14:52 |
| Hedgework | xubuntu34w: the command "lspci" will show all devices on your busses...this will let us see if the drive is detected as existing at all (it's possible xubuntu just doesn't know its a block device) | 14:52 |
| xubuntu34w | ok will check | 14:53 |
| xubuntu34w | long list but only see controllers and nothing mentioning cd or dvd | 14:55 |
| Hedgework | If its not in either, it's possible that the drive is damaged or is violating established standards badly enough to not be detected. | 15:02 |
| * Hedgework ponders | 15:02 | |
| Hedgework | We could sift through dmesg, but I suspect you might find the sheer amount of stuff there overwhelming. | 15:03 |
| Hedgework | xubuntu34w: may I ask what brand/model the laptop is? | 15:03 |
| Hedgework | xubuntu34w: you may just get it serviced (you mentioned it is new) or consider doing an install from USB media | 15:05 |
| xubuntu34w | gonna try a usb install....its a used laptop its a compaq f700 | 15:07 |
| xubuntu34w | thanx for your help...bb.if ic an install from the usb least i will 7 on the notebookk | 15:14 |

| Gimhalos | Hello all, I just did a fresh install, trying to get dual monitors working. With Nouveau it works just fine, but the framerate chugs a little. When I install nvidia and use nvidia-settings it doesn't detect my main monitor correctly (detects it as a digital display and won't write to it at all). I am guessing because it's a 1440p monitor, as it detects my 1080p monitor correctly in both ports. Anyone have any experience getting thi | 20:51 |
