cpugirl | how to upgrade 10.04 to 10.10 ? | 04:53 |
SonikkuAmerica | cpugirl: Upgrade to 12.04. 10.10 is no longer supported. | 04:55 |
SonikkuAmerica | If you need assistance with that, I can help | 04:55 |
cpugirl | sorry!! 12.10 | 04:55 |
SonikkuAmerica | That isn't supported either. We only support 12.04, 14.04 and 14.10 | 04:56 |
SonikkuAmerica | (Did you mean 14.10?) | 04:56 |
cpugirl | yes | 04:56 |
xangua | a fresh install is the fastest way | 04:56 |
SonikkuAmerica | Yes. | 04:56 |
cpugirl | what about 14.04 to 14.10 ? | 04:57 |
xangua | suddenly people using 10.04 showing off, it's the moon or something? | 04:57 |
SonikkuAmerica | However, you can go from 10.04 > 12.04 > 14.04 without a Live image | 04:57 |
cpugirl | xangua:sorry it was just mistype :( | 04:57 |
cpugirl | I am using 14.04 now and wanna shift to 14.10 | 04:58 |
xangua | I'm still lost | 04:58 |
xangua | oh, just go to software center, edit, software sources and in the update tab pick normal updates instead or LTS | 04:59 |
SonikkuAmerica | cpugirl: Can you paste the output of [ lsb_release -sc ] for me? (The part in [ ] is typed in a !terminal.) | 04:59 |
xangua | wait, xubuntu doesn't have software centre (¿) I don't remember | 04:59 |
SonikkuAmerica | xangua: Yes it does | 04:59 |
cpugirl | trusty | 04:59 |
SonikkuAmerica | cpugirl: Go to Software and Updates in the Settings Manager and pick "For any new version" under "Notify me of a new Ubuntu release:". | 05:00 |
SonikkuAmerica | cpugirl: Then close Software and Updates. | 05:00 |
timvisher-xubunt | are there any known bugs with acer e3-111 bluetooth drivers? | 05:01 |
timvisher-xubunt | my box cannot find any bluetooth devices, though other devices (macs) can see them fine | 05:01 |
timvisher-xubunt | lotuspsychje in #ubuntu, i think, believes the following pastebin is relevant: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9278432/ | 05:03 |
SonikkuAmerica | cpugirl: The best way to upgrade your system in place is by running [ do-release-upgrade ] once you've finished what I told you to do in a !terminal | 05:03 |
cpugirl | No new release found | 05:04 |
=== zz_XeBlackWater is now known as XeBlackWater | ||
SonikkuAmerica | Did you do what I told you to do above? | 05:09 |
cpugirl | any cmds for direct upgrade 14.04 to 14.10 ? | 05:09 |
timvisher-xubunt | actually, probably more this one: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9278491/ | 05:10 |

mesaboogie1 | hi there | 08:26 |
mesaboogie1 | I'm searching around for customization options and I've found the problem people are having with shutting the lid of their lappies and resuming (they/I got a lightdm login window/prompt and then a black screen) and I have the fix | 08:28 |
mesaboogie1 | does anyone have an ubuntu forums/askubuntu account and can post for me the fix please? | 08:29 |
mesaboogie1 | (I'm using xubuntu trusty) | 08:29 |
mesaboogie1 | and the fix is just to go (xfce) settings>session and startup> and >advanced and "lock screen before sleep" | 08:31 |
mesaboogie1 | https://www.google.co.nz/?gws_rd=ssl#q=xubuntu+trusty+resume+black+screen | 08:34 |
mesaboogie1 | sorry it's not askubuntu/ubuntuforums (well it's there but) > it's actually bugs.launchpad.net | 08:35 |
mesaboogie1 | hi is anyone here? | 08:39 |
xubuntu31w | Hi, all | 10:13 |
Rogi_ | Hi | 11:38 |
Rogi_ | One short question as I'm very new to linux and xubuntu | 11:39 |
Rogi_ | Can I update the xubuntu 14.04 kernel the same way I would update the ubuntu 14.04? | 11:40 |
slickymasterWork | yes you can Rogi_ | 11:41 |
Rogi_ | thanks big time slickymasterWork | 11:41 |
slickymasterWork | just head on to http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/, download the version you want and then run sudo dpkg -i kernelversion.deb | 11:42 |
Rogi_ | kernel 3.17 fixes my WiFi issues so that was a big answer I needed | 11:42 |
slickymasterWork | ok, no problem | 11:42 |
Rogi_ | btw, just saying... this IRS support is so much cooler than scrolling though endless forum posts :) | 11:43 |
knome | IRC | 11:45 |
slickymasterWork | IRS = Internal Revenue Service :P | 11:47 |
flan_suse | When you lock the screen, isn't your wallpaper supposed to be the background? | 15:08 |
flan_suse | For some reason, it started happening recently that whenever I lock my screen in Xubuntu, the background is the Xubuntu default; not my custom wallpaper. | 15:09 |
flan_suse | I checked under LightDM settings, but could find nothing. | 15:09 |
GridCube | it should be, but sometimes it isnt | 15:09 |
GridCube | and sometimes it is | 15:10 |
flan_suse | Is there is a reason why? | 15:10 |
Poisoned_Dragon_ | I put my wallpapers in /usr/share so that they show up in lightdm. | 15:10 |
flan_suse | I'll explain in a different way. | 15:10 |
GridCube | i think it depends on where the image is and if lightdm have access to them outside of an acredited user | 15:10 |
flan_suse | Let's say I set my wallpaper to "Fireworks.jpg". | 15:10 |
GridCube | like what crendentials have the file to be accessed bay anyone or not | 15:11 |
flan_suse | It's located under $HOME/Wallpapers/Fireworks.jpg | 15:11 |
Poisoned_Dragon_ | with that said, my screen locker is gnome-screensaver. So, I don't have that expectation. | 15:11 |
flan_suse | When I lock the screen, I don't see Fireworks.jpg as the background, but instead the default Xubuntu wallpaper. | 15:11 |
flan_suse | GridCube: Shouldn't $HOME/Wallpapers be accessible to LightDM? | 15:12 |
GridCube | depends on the directory permissions | 15:12 |
Poisoned_Dragon_ | actually, no. | 15:12 |
Poisoned_Dragon_ | unless root has permissions for it. | 15:12 |
GridCube | if you set them to be readable by anyone, yes | 15:12 |
GridCube | if not only you | 15:12 |
GridCube | Poisoned_Dragon_: root has permissions for everything | 15:13 |
GridCube | the lightdm service might not | 15:13 |
Poisoned_Dragon_ | True... But with lightdm, I find it better to put custom wallpapers in /usr/share/wallpapers | 15:13 |
Poisoned_Dragon_ | I think thats where the system ones are. | 15:13 |
GridCube | yep, because that folder is readable by anyone | 15:13 |
GridCube | thoguh only root can write | 15:13 |
Poisoned_Dragon_ | Then, lightdm has access to it at all times. | 15:13 |
flan_suse | The folder is readable by all, as are the files. | 15:14 |
flan_suse | rw-rw-r-- | 15:14 |
GridCube | then in theory it should work | 15:14 |
flan_suse | Hmmmm. | 15:14 |
GridCube | but sometimes, it doesnt | 15:14 |
GridCube | for me is totally random | 15:14 |
Poisoned_Dragon_ | In theory,it should. in practice, I never hold the expectation of anything in my home directory being freely accessable. | 15:14 |
Poisoned_Dragon_ | So... I just put it outside home. | 15:15 |
flan_suse | Let me try setting my wallpaper to something under /usr/ | 15:15 |
GridCube | flan_suse: i've used variety and set it to set the login wallpaper as well, it works | 15:15 |
Poisoned_Dragon_ | good test | 15:15 |
flan_suse | And see if it works. | 15:15 |
flan_suse | Variety? | 15:15 |
GridCube | Variety is a wallpaper changer | 15:15 |
flan_suse | Oh. | 15:15 |
GridCube | https://launchpad.net/variety | 15:16 |
flan_suse | Alright. | 15:18 |
flan_suse | I set the wallpaper to something under /usr/share/xfce4/backgrounds/ | 15:18 |
flan_suse | And when I lock the screen, I do indeed see it as the background. | 15:19 |
flan_suse | So lightdm is not reading anything under ~/Wallpapers/ | 15:19 |
GridCube | mmhm | 15:19 |
GridCube | yep, that sounds about right | 15:19 |
flan_suse | Well, it's working again now... | 15:20 |
GridCube | sometimes it does | 15:20 |
Poisoned_Dragon_ | so, move it to /usr/share/xfce4/backgrounds/ | 15:20 |
flan_suse | For some reason, setting the wallpaper to something under /usr/share/ and THEN setting it back to ~/Wallpapers/ works again... | 15:20 |
Poisoned_Dragon_ | Then you'll always be golden. | 15:20 |
flan_suse | Poisoned_Dragon_: But now it works under ~/Wallpapers | 15:20 |
Poisoned_Dragon_ | For now. | 15:21 |
Poisoned_Dragon_ | Bet it fails after reboot | 15:21 |
GridCube | flan_suse: for a time it will, but then it wont | 15:21 |
flan_suse | It's like using another folder "reset" it or something. | 15:21 |
flan_suse | GridCube: But computers are supposed to be PERFECT. | 15:21 |
Poisoned_Dragon_ | pfft | 15:21 |
Poisoned_Dragon_ | Bwwwaaahahahahahaha | 15:21 |
GridCube | welcome to FOSS | 15:21 |
flan_suse | 100.01% perfection. | 15:21 |
GridCube | :3 | 15:21 |
flan_suse | Learned something just now, and fixed this issue for the meantime. | 15:22 |
flan_suse | Thanks for your time PD and GC. | 15:22 |
flan_suse | If it keeps up, I might switch over to /usr/ | 15:22 |
flan_suse | What the? | 15:24 |
flan_suse | I'm typing /i-am-finished-now-please-disconnect-me-from-freenode and it keeps saying: "/i-am-finished-now-please-disconnect-me-from-freenode is not a supported command" | 15:24 |
flan_suse | I'm stuck here forever! | 15:24 |

pjotter | Hi everybody! I installed Xubuntu 14.04 and after 10 minutes or so, my screen goes blank. Even when I set powermanagement and light locker to never do that. How is this possible and how do I get this fixed? Anyone know? | 22:42 |
cc_INC | Maybe you should check if anyone with similar problems have filed a bug. If not file a bug yourself on Launchpad. | 23:26 |
nomic | pjottter -- its the x windows screen saver | 23:32 |
nomic | the xset ommand | 23:33 |
nomic | xset command | 23:33 |
nomic | xset s off xset s noblank xset s 0 0" | 23:33 |
nomic | those commands | 23:33 |
nomic | stop your screen turning off | 23:33 |
nomic | again | 23:34 |
nomic | he gets told | 23:34 |
nomic | & leaves | 23:34 |
nomic | before finding out | 23:34 |
knome | nomic, please, PLEASE do not use enter as punctuation. | 23:35 |
nomic | hey i was trying to help | 23:35 |
knome | nomic, i've sent you the guidelines via ubottu in PM as a reminder | 23:36 |
nomic | whoever set up that light locker - so it doesn't work to stop the screen saver | 23:37 |
nomic | it's introduced a universal problem | 23:37 |
nomic | wtg. | 23:37 |
nomic | ie. you cannot turn the "screensaver" off | 23:38 |
knome | nomic, do you have a support question or are you just whining? | 23:38 |
nomic | i stopped | 23:38 |
knome | this isn't the first time you do that. | 23:39 |
