[04:53] <cpugirl> how to upgrade 10.04 to 10.10 ?
[04:55] <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
[04:56] <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.
[04:57] <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 :(
[04:58] <cpugirl> I am using 14.04 now and wanna shift to 14.10
[04:58] <xangua> I'm still lost
[04:59] <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
[05:00] <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.
[05:01] <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
[05:03] <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
[05:04] <cpugirl> No new release found
[05:09] <SonikkuAmerica> Did you do what I told you to do above?
[05:09] <cpugirl> any cmds for direct upgrade 14.04 to 14.10 ?
[05:10] <timvisher-xubunt> actually, probably more this one: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9278491/
[05:10] <SonikkuAmerica> cpugirl: See http://i.imgur.com/8tnJAvk.png
[05:12] <cpugirl> SonikkuAmerica: I did .
[05:13] <cpugirl> SonikkuAmerica:updating cache
[05:13] <SonikkuAmerica> cpugirl: Yeah, run [ sudo apt-get update ] then [ do-release-upgrade ]
[05:14] <cpugirl> SonikkuAmerica:I love linux so much .No girl use here linux except me :)Thank you
[05:15] <SonikkuAmerica> cpugirl: I beg to differ. I know a lot of women who use Linux
[05:15] <cpugirl> SonikkuAmerica::)
[05:23] <SonikkuAmerica> Bye!
[05:29] <cpugirl_> how to make hotspot in linux ?
[05:38] <holstein> cpugirl_: it'll be similar to this http://www.howtogeek.com/116409/how-to-turn-your-ubuntu-laptop-into-a-wireless-access-point/ ..but, it can depend on your hardware AFAIK
[05:38] <cpugirl_> holstein: thank you
[08:26] <mesaboogie1> hi there
[08:28] <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
[08:29] <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)
[08:31] <mesaboogie1> and the fix is just to go (xfce) settings>session and startup> and >advanced and "lock screen before sleep"
[08:34] <mesaboogie1> https://www.google.co.nz/?gws_rd=ssl#q=xubuntu+trusty+resume+black+screen
[08:35] <mesaboogie1> sorry it's not askubuntu/ubuntuforums (well it's there but) > it's actually bugs.launchpad.net
[08:39] <mesaboogie1> hi is anyone here?
[10:13] <xubuntu31w> Hi, all
[11:38] <Rogi_> Hi
[11:39] <Rogi_> One short question as I'm very new to linux and xubuntu
[11:40] <Rogi_> Can I update the xubuntu 14.04 kernel the same way I would update the ubuntu 14.04?
[11:41] <slickymasterWork> yes you can Rogi_
[11:41] <Rogi_> thanks big time slickymasterWork
[11:42] <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
[11:43] <Rogi_> btw, just saying... this IRS support is so much cooler than scrolling though endless forum posts :)
[11:45] <knome> IRC
[11:47] <slickymasterWork> IRS = Internal Revenue Service :P
[15:08] <flan_suse> When you lock the screen, isn't your wallpaper supposed to be the background?
[15:09] <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
[15:10] <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".
[15:11] <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.
[15:12] <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
[15:13] <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.
[15:14] <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.
[15:15] <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.
[15:16] <GridCube> https://launchpad.net/variety
[15:18] <flan_suse> Alright.
[15:18] <flan_suse> I set the wallpaper to something under /usr/share/xfce4/backgrounds/
[15:19] <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
[15:20] <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
[15:21] <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
[15:22] <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/
[15:24] <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!
[15:27] <Poisoned_Dragon> lol
[15:27] <Poisoned_Dragon> derp
[15:27] <Poisoned_Dragon> /part fail
[16:24] <Guest98889> hi everybody
[16:25] <slickymasterWork> !hi | Guest98889
[20:49] <Kamil1> I have installed Xubuntu just hour ago and I must say that I freaking love it, its the best distro which I have used so far. I have just some problems with my Wifi adapter, because of lack of the drivers, but I will try first to deal with it on my own, just wanted to share it with you for now :p
[21:04] <holstein> !wifi | Kamil1
[21:04] <holstein> good luck!  and cheers :)
[21:05] <Kamil1> holstein: Oh, thanks for the link, it will be really helpful :)

[22:42] <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?
[23:26] <cc_INC> Maybe you should check if anyone with similar problems have filed a bug. If not file a bug yourself on Launchpad.
[23:32] <nomic> pjottter -- its the x windows screen saver
[23:33] <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
[23:34] <nomic> again
[23:34] <nomic> he gets told
[23:34] <nomic> & leaves
[23:34] <nomic> before finding out
[23:35] <knome> nomic, please, PLEASE do not use enter as punctuation.
[23:35] <nomic> hey i was trying to help
[23:36] <knome> nomic, i've sent you the guidelines via ubottu in PM as a reminder
[23:37] <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.
[23:38] <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
[23:39] <knome> this isn't the first time you do that.
