| janolap1 | Hi there, I'm trying to use Processing to create some visual effects. But I have this message : libEGL warning: failed to create a pipe screen for i915 Smooth is not supported by this hardware (or driver) | 19:49 |
| janolap1 | Does it mean that I have to install a driver, for example using : http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2014/05/intel-linux-graphics-driver-installer-1-0-5 | 19:49 |
| janolap1 | or is there any workaround ? | 19:51 |
| janolap1 | I'm using Processing 2.2.1 for 32bits on Lubuntu, of course ! | 19:52 |
| wxl | janolap1: sounds like the i915 driver (or the hardware itself) doesn't support that GL that it's trying to use | 19:53 |
| phillw | janolap1: have a read of http://forum.processing.org/one/topic/p3d-issues-with-ubuntu-13-04-and-processing-2-0-2.html | 19:53 |
| wxl | janolap1: if `lspci -vvnn | grep i915` pops up something, you have the driver already installed. you can see if there's a different driver available, but i doubt it. i would hit up the processing folks. | 19:53 |
| janolap1 | Result : Kernel driver in use: i915 | 19:54 |
| wxl | yeah so you have the driver. | 19:54 |
| wxl | janolap1: you can use `lspci | grep -i VGA` to get the device ID and google it for other drivers, but it's doubtful they're out there. | 19:55 |
| wxl | janolap1: if they are, they're likely proprietary and will be problematic in terms of support, maintainence, etc. | 19:55 |
| janolap1 | 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82945G/GZ Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02) | 19:55 |
| wxl | oh maybe you need to add -vn | 19:56 |
| wxl | there should be something like [xxxx:yyyy] where x and y are alphanumeric values | 19:56 |
| janolap1 | 00:02.0 0300: 8086:2772 (rev 02) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) | 19:56 |
| wxl | 8086:2772 | 19:56 |
| janolap1 | Ok, I have the solution using an old Processing version... which seems to use old OpenGL... http://forum.processing.org/two/discussion/7134/failing-to-draw-with-opengl-lighting-under-ubuntu-14-hp-compaq/p1 | 19:59 |
| janolap1 | I'm trying this first... | 20:00 |

| MnstH | hey there | 22:15 |
| MnstH | I'm having issues with my Lubuntu installation, can anyone help me? | 22:15 |
| MnstH | I installed a few updates earlier (like most days), and now, whenever I want to log into my account, I get a blank wallpaper and a mouse icon, the desktop won't load... when I log in as guest, it works normally | 22:16 |
| explodingmango | Hey MnstH, still there? Guess it's up to me to try... | 22:22 |
| MnstH | sure, query? | 22:22 |
| explodingmango | Okay, something you can try is to hit Ctrl-alt-T to open a terminal, then type in lxpanel | 22:22 |
| explodingmango | (I'm looking at a web page reporting a similar problem, if that step works then we've gotten somewhere at least) | 22:23 |
| ianorlin | MnstH: did you log into openbox | 22:23 |
| MnstH | I guess I logged into LXDE (?) | 22:23 |
| ianorlin | does right clicking on the desktop do anything | 22:23 |
| MnstH | ianorlin: no | 22:24 |
| MnstH | it's just the wallpaper with a mouse cursor | 22:24 |
| MnstH | right clicks etc. do nothing | 22:24 |
| MnstH | I have read at least 30 threads now but some have really funky suggestions so I guess I want to start small | 22:24 |
| explodingmango | And Ctrl+Alt+T doesn't bring up terminal? | 22:25 |
| ianorlin | MnstH: try hitting control alt f1 | 22:25 |
| MnstH | I have yet to try... I wanted to gather a few suggestions before I try them all out... I'm on the same machine currently, as a guest | 22:26 |
| MnstH | so far I have: try to open console with either Ctrl + Alt + T or + F1 (whichever works), then try "startx" or "lxpanel" | 22:26 |
| ianorlin | can you log out and make sure you are logged into the lubuntu session? | 22:26 |
| MnstH | and then some sites suggested to revert the lxsession settings to default | 22:26 |
| explodingmango | MnstH: It's fine, just hitting Ctrl-alt-T or Ctrl-Alt-F1 won't do anything permanent, nor will running lxpanel | 22:26 |
| explodingmango | MnstH: (whoops sorry I didn't read your message right, ignore me) | 22:27 |
| MnstH | well, I can't be trying it out and chat with you guys, hence why I said I wanted to gather a few ideas first | 22:27 |
| MnstH | :) | 22:27 |
| MnstH | so, anything else I should try in case none of the above works? | 22:28 |
| MnstH | then I'll try and come back | 22:29 |
| explodingmango | MnstH: Well if reverting your settings requires deleting folders or files, make sure you back em up and know where to put them back if you need to undo your changes, I guess. Sorry if this is old news | 22:29 |
| MnstH | the thread suggested deleting ".configs/lxsession/Lubuntu" for my profile (if I manage to access it) | 22:30 |
| MnstH | .config | 22:30 |
| MnstH | I wonder what caused this anyway... since this guest account will load everything just fine | 22:31 |
| MnstH | :( | 22:31 |
| testdr | MnstH: you should not delete (rm) it - you should rename it - you can even rename the whole ".config" directory to for example: mv .config .config_old then you still have it to recover things from it. | 22:32 |
| explodingmango | MnstH: Wait, so does starting lxpanel or startx from terminal work? i.e. bring back the desktop temporarily | 22:32 |
| explodingmango | MnstH: Because if it does you'll have no problem accessing those locations | 22:32 |
| MnstH | testdr: thanks, that sounds reasonable | 22:32 |
| MnstH | explodingmango: I will try those out now | 22:33 |
| MnstH | ok, see you in a bit | 22:33 |
| explodingmango | MnstH: good luck! | 22:34 |
| MnstH | well... that didn't work... | 22:48 |
| MnstH | I can only open the console with the "+ F1" combination... if I try "startx", my screen just goes black... if I try "lxpanel", I get the error "(lxpanel:1744): Gtk-WARNING**: cannot open display:" | 22:49 |
| MnstH | and now, whenever I want to login into my regular account, it "loads something" and then bounces back to the login screen | 22:49 |
| MnstH | explodingmango ianorlin testdr | 22:50 |
| testdr | MnstH: in the login-screen -> press strg+alt+F1 -> in the text-console login with your account and mv the .config to .config_old | 22:50 |
| MnstH | also, when I login to the guest account, it comes up with an error box that reads "No session for pid 1671" | 22:51 |
| MnstH | but everything else works | 22:51 |
| testdr | MnstH: did you do what i said? Go to text-console with strg+alt+F1 or strg+alt+F2 there login and rename the directory .config | 22:52 |
| MnstH | from the guest account/now? | 22:53 |
| testdr | no - go to the kitchen and try it from there ... -- are we not speaking about your computer? | 22:53 |
| MnstH | ... | 22:54 |
| explodingmango | hey hey. When you hit Ctrl+Alt+F1 it'll ask you to login via text, even if you're already logged in as guest | 22:54 |
| testdr | MnstH: Do you not know what pressing strg+alt+F1 is? | 22:54 |
| MnstH | I do, I used it earlier | 22:54 |
| MnstH | I was just wondering if I needed to do anything afterwards that would require me to login (attempt) to the other account | 22:55 |
| explodingmango | I guess after all's said and done you can go back and login from GUI, but right now I think everything's gonna happen in the Ctrl-Alt-F1 terminal so it won't matter yet | 22:55 |
| MnstH | yeah | 22:56 |
| MnstH | sec | 22:56 |
| explodingmango | By the way, to go back to GUI is Ctrl-Alt-F7, at least on my computer. Maybe you already know it, but it's caught me off guard enough times | 22:56 |
| MnstH | yeah, it's F7 | 22:56 |
| MnstH | ok testdr, done | 22:57 |
| testdr | MnstH: was? .config umbenannt? | 22:58 |
| MnstH | ja | 22:58 |
| testdr | MnstH: then switch again to gui-login with strg+alt+F7 and try your account | 22:59 |
| MnstH | ok, sec | 22:59 |
| aflag | hello. I'm having a problem with xfce4-power-manager. If I start it with --no-daemon all works, the battery icon shows up and everything. However, if I start it with no parameters nothing happens. The daemon runs, but no icon shows up on my tray | 23:03 |
| aflag | does xfce4-power-manager daemon logs things somewhere | 23:05 |
| aflag | ? | 23:05 |
| explodingmango | Sorry, I'm not ignoring you, I just don't know. | 23:08 |
| explodingmango | However, does this mean anything to you? | 23:08 |
| explodingmango | [2014-10-29 17:40] [ALPM-SCRIPTLET] :: Xfce Power Manager no longer provides a tray icon. [2014-10-29 17:40] [ALPM-SCRIPTLET] Please add the new Power Manager Plugin to your panel. [2014-10-29 17:40] [PACMAN] upgraded xfce4-power-manager (1.2.0.212.g75107db-1 -> 1.4.1-2) | 23:08 |
| aflag | Hm, not sure. It does show the icon when I start it with --no-daemon | 23:09 |
| aflag | also, when I start it as a daemon xfce4-power-manager-settings doesn't work -- while it does work with --no-daemon | 23:10 |
| explodingmango | Uh, this is a really dumb shot in the dark for me: does anything show up in dmesg regarding it? | 23:14 |
| aflag | hm, it doesn't look like it, unfortunately :( | 23:16 |
| explodingmango | Ah, quote "There also might be some useful information in the ~/.xsession-errors log file." | 23:17 |
| aflag | hm, nothing :( I wonder why something like that could happen. I will try to execute --no-daemon in background :P | 23:18 |
| explodingmango | Yea :/ This might be the same bug here but they never found a resolution: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/40180 | 23:19 |
| explodingmango | Another quote from another web page: Trying sudo xfce4-power-manager --dump does nothing for a minute or so, then gives me the following message: ... | 23:22 |
| explodingmango | Same pages suggests what I think you said you'd try, to disable the power manager on startup and add your own startup entry for power manager --no-daemon or whatever | 23:23 |
| aflag | yes, that's what I am thinking on doing as well :P | 23:25 |
| aflag | let's not fight the current :) | 23:25 |
| explodingmango | Yea, diminishing returns | 23:25 |
| explodingmango | or whatever. Long as it works, seems to have worked for the answerer to http://askubuntu.com/questions/129671/how-can-i-workaround-the-xfce4-power-manager-being-broken | 23:27 |
| krytarik | aflag: Fwiw, LP bug 1347272, too. | 23:27 |

| aflag | well, maybe some day someone will get it fixed :) Thanks for all the attention, you guys. I will try to login again and see if my hack worked :) | 23:30 |
| aflag | fyi, it worked :) | 23:32 |
| explodingmango | Sweet | 23:32 |
