| xubuntu54w | hello i want to change my theme but in gnome-tweak-tool i have a triangle with an exclamation mark next to the shell theme section | 02:03 |
| xubuntu54w | i have gnome shell 3.14.3 | 02:03 |
| knome | then you probably want to ask the ubuntu gnome (or whatever flavor is using that) channel | 02:04 |
| gowned | hi, how do I reload an updated wallpaper? | 02:28 |

| gowned | o | 02:32 |
| gowned | thx knome | 02:34 |

| sim642 | I had xubuntu crash on me (due to GPU driver issues I think) and now there's numerous things broken with my install: 1. all fonts in xfce are different, 2. half of the settings groups are gone from the settings manager (e.g. there's even no sound settings). What can I do now? | 10:04 |
| brainwash | sim642: did you maybe start the normal Xfce session instead of the Xubuntu one? | 10:06 |
| brainwash | and is the guest session affected too? | 10:07 |
| sim642 | brainwash, I started up as usual, only had to delete .Xauthority to get it to log in to my account at all | 10:07 |
| sim642 | I can't switch user either, it's been a while like this | 10:08 |
| brainwash | you cannot? | 10:08 |
| sim642 | it's grayed out in the menu that comes up clicking on my username in top right panel | 10:08 |
| sim642 | I think I read somewhere it being broken after some update, not sure | 10:09 |
| brainwash | you can log out and then select the guest session | 10:09 |
| sim642 | it's kinda awkward to test if I have to log out entirely | 10:10 |
| brainwash | can you lock the screen? this should offer you the option to switch to a different user also | 10:11 |
| sim642 | I've tried, new login just goes gray on click too | 10:12 |
| brainwash | xscreensaver or light-locker? | 10:12 |
| brainwash | or something else | 10:13 |
| brainwash | maybe you should explain in more detail how the fonts changed and which settings launchers are missing | 10:15 |
| sim642 | should be xscreensaver | 10:15 |
| brainwash | sounds settings should run "pavucontrol" | 10:16 |
| sim642 | I went and had a look at the guest account, I think it had the nice default fonts everywhere | 10:16 |
| brainwash | can you manually launch pavucontrol? | 10:16 |
| brainwash | ah, you are using xubuntu 14.04, right? | 10:17 |
| sim642 | manually launching works fine | 10:17 |
| sim642 | 14.04.1 LTS it should be | 10:17 |
| brainwash | bug 1320560 | 10:18 |
| ubottu | bug 1320560 in xscreensaver (Ubuntu) "Removal of gdmflexiserver breaks user switching" [Undecided,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1320560 | 10:18 |
| brainwash | it has been fixed in 14.10 | 10:18 |
| brainwash | look at comment #4 for an easy workaround | 10:19 |
| brainwash | back to the initial problems: I guess you could configure the font to your likings | 10:20 |
| sim642 | I could change some of the fonts in the settings from Sans to Droid Sans or something which seemed to look like it was before | 10:20 |
| sim642 | but there are still places which were unaffected by that | 10:21 |
| sim642 | it makes me believe that for some odd reason the default Sans font has changed or something | 10:21 |
| sim642 | because I was on all default fonts before | 10:21 |
| sim642 | thanks for the user switching tip, it worked at least | 10:24 |
| brainwash | well, you could reset your Xfce settings by deleting ~/.config/xfce4 | 10:24 |
| brainwash | delete or move (backup) | 10:24 |
| sim642 | I contemplated about it but didn't do it yet hoping there's some less destructive fix | 10:25 |
| brainwash | furthermore, an altered menu structure may be saved somewhere in ~/.local/share | 10:25 |
| brainwash | which also affects the settings manager | 10:26 |
| sim642 | removing that xfce4 config should fix the settings manager too? | 10:27 |
| brainwash | you can take a closer look at ~/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/ and only delete certain config files | 10:27 |
| brainwash | I think "xsettings.xml" contains the font settings | 10:28 |
| brainwash | I don't know if this will fix the settings manager problem | 10:28 |
| sim642 | I doubt that because I checked the settings manager in Guest session as well and it also had numerous missing items | 10:28 |
| brainwash | they should not magically disappear, that's all I know :) | 10:29 |
| sim642 | well yeah | 10:30 |
| brainwash | do they show up in the whisker menu search? | 10:30 |
| brainwash | or listed in the "all" section | 10:30 |

| brainwash | this one ^ | 10:31 |
| brainwash | maybe related | 10:32 |
| sim642 | oh I just searched what whisker menu looks at and I don't have that, I just have the xfce application menu or whatever it should be called | 10:33 |
| brainwash | the classic app menu | 10:34 |
| brainwash | you can add whisker menu to the panel | 10:34 |
| sim642 | I don't even have it in the new panel items list | 10:34 |
| brainwash | does the classic app menu show the "settings" category? | 10:34 |
| sim642 | yeah it does | 10:35 |
| sim642 | it doesn't list the missing items either | 10:35 |
| sim642 | for example I can't found Sound from there | 10:35 |
| brainwash | any other examples? | 10:35 |
| sim642 | it's quite difficult to remember any like this because I don't constantly use settings but I remember there certainly being many more | 10:36 |
| brainwash | ahh, isn't this launcher suppose to show up in the multimedia category? | 10:37 |
| brainwash | supposed | 10:37 |
| brainwash | Categories=AudioVideo;Audio;Mixer;GTK; | 10:37 |
| brainwash | "PulseAudio Volume Control" | 10:38 |
| sim642 | I've never had it under multimedia I think | 10:39 |
| sim642 | but also, when I try to open sound settings from the sound indicator | 10:39 |
| brainwash | maybe someone else can verify this | 10:39 |
| brainwash | I don't have xubuntu running at the moment | 10:39 |
| sim642 | it starts up a very different settings manager which I think is the gnome-control-center.real process | 10:39 |
| sim642 | and only has 3 items in it | 10:40 |

| brainwash | that's an indication for my previous theory: you are not running the xubuntu session | 10:41 |
| brainwash | but the Xfce one | 10:41 |
| brainwash | open a terminal window and "echo $DESKTOP_SESSION" | 10:42 |
| brainwash | and run | 10:42 |
| sim642 | xfce it is | 10:42 |
| brainwash | log out and select the xubuntu session then :) | 10:42 |
| sim642 | I find this odd because I've always used only xubuntu session and I certainly haven't changed it | 10:42 |
| brainwash | it is odd | 10:43 |
| brainwash | but you've deleted some hidden files in your home dir, or? | 10:43 |
| brainwash | one might have saved the currently running session type | 10:44 |
| brainwash | without it you'll get the first session entry in the list | 10:45 |
| sim642 | it's back to normal now, thanks | 10:46 |
| brainwash | awesome | 10:46 |
| sim642 | it even took me a while to figure out where I could change the session on the login screen, I don't think I've ever seen that tiny option | 10:47 |
| brainwash | heh, it really is subtle | 10:48 |

| xubuntu87w | Hello. Anyone can help me with my proble? my problem that os cant start if wireless mouse's adapter plugged on. os hangs at black screen. If try to start without adapter, os start correctly. And then i can use my mouse fine. BTW mouse Logitech Perfomance | 14:16 |
| holstein | xubuntu87w: nah.. what i would do is just unplug to boot.. i have seen that, actually, with a few USB devices.. not sure if its a bios level thing or something with linux specificially.. | 14:41 |
| AgAu | it's giving you hint.... wireless mice are terrible :P | 14:42 |
| holstein | well, wireless mice are wireless... if you want wireless, its necessary | 14:43 |
| AgAu | indeed | 14:43 |
| AgAu | but why would you want wireless :P | 14:44 |
| holstein | the same reason there are no wires on phones.. | 14:44 |
| AgAu | well i don't use a mouse when im walking around | 14:45 |
| AgAu | in mid air | 14:45 |
| holstein | anyways, for this issue, its nothing to do with the wireless, its just that there is a particular USB device plugged.. happens to me with a flip camera | 14:45 |
| GrinchCube | ._. my wireless mice works fine | 14:45 |

| junebug | I am trying to figure out if something similar to open location is possible. I often use ctrl + L for open location in Thunar but i usually want to start typing at the end of the path, and not nessesarily to type in a whole new path. Is there some shortcut that will put my cursor in focus at the end of the path? | 19:58 |
| brainwash | junebug: end key? | 20:00 |
| junebug | brainwash: that's an option but i'd love to be able to do it in one keystroke if possible | 20:07 |
| drc1 | junebug: You want a CTRL+L + ENDKEY in one keystroke? Have you looked at Edit>Configure Customs Actions in Thunar ? | 20:10 |
| junebug | drc1: that's correct. I am aware of it but i thought that was more for context menus? any idea how i would add a custom keystroke? | 20:12 |
| drc1 | Nope, never used it before. | 20:12 |
| drc1 | Just aware of it's existence...it seemed the simplest way (if possible) | 20:12 |
| brainwash | junebug: you should take a look at xdotool -> http://www.semicomplete.com/projects/xdotool/ | 20:13 |
| junebug | brainwash: thanks for the link. i will check it out. | 20:14 |
| brainwash | you basically use this little tool to send the keystrokes | 20:16 |
| brainwash | use the Xfce settings interface to define a custom keybind which runs xdotool | 20:17 |
| junebug | brainwash: thanks for the help | 20:20 |
| brainwash | junebug: however, maybe it's worth to file a report on the Xfce bug tracker and request it to be changed by default | 20:22 |
| brainwash | place cursor at the end | 20:22 |
| zleap | hi | 20:48 |
| zleap | my menu bar in thunar has disappeared and ctrl M isn't working to bring it back , can someone help please | 20:48 |
| drc1 | I'd start by closing (all) Thunar(s), use a terminal to rename/move (so you can restore it if this doesn't work) ~/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/thunar.xml, and reopen Thunar. | 20:53 |
| Buddyb | Hi all | 20:57 |
| zleap | drc1, ok i have opened that file | 20:58 |
| zleap | ah change last menu bar to false | 20:59 |
| zleap | or last menu bar visible to false | 20:59 |
| zleap | seems to work | 20:59 |
| drc1 | ok, from what you said that seems to work too. So...problem solved? | 21:00 |
| zleap | yeah thank you | 21:03 |
| drc1 | No problem (especially as you you found your own solution) :) | 21:04 |
| zleap | http://zleap.net/xubuntu-thunar-file-manager/ | 21:04 |
| zleap | i have also updated my webpage on this to include your solution and given you credit for helping | 21:04 |
| drc1 | So much for keeping a low profile :) | 21:05 |
| zleap | sorr | 21:06 |
| zleap | y | 21:06 |
| zleap | not sure how many people read that page anyway | 21:06 |
| brainwash | can you reproduce this behavior (ctrl+m fails)? | 21:06 |
| brainwash | if yes, please file a bug report | 21:07 |
| zleap | ok will see if I can figure out what happened | 21:07 |
| zleap | it is working fine now, but i must hasve hit a setting that produces a preferences button which is why the menu bar didn't toggle | 21:08 |
| drc1 | zleap: You haven't reassigned CTL+L anywhere else, have you? | 21:08 |
| drc1 | er...CRTL+M, that is....CRTL+L was another problem earlier :) | 21:09 |
| zleap | not that i know of | 21:09 |
| drc1 | Chalk it up to rogue christmas elves then. | 21:09 |
| zleap | if I trigger the same issue I will update the page and then file a bug report | 21:09 |
| zleap | yeah | 21:10 |

| terratoma | if i use the default ubuntu desktop session, sound works fine. if i start with xubuntu desktop, no sound. what did i do wrong ? | 23:23 |
| HassanCehef | i had issue with the sound too. | 23:24 |
| HassanCehef | i uninstalled pulseaudio and went back to alsa-mixer | 23:24 |
| HassanCehef | you lose the nice widget but it works again | 23:24 |
| terratoma | i will try that | 23:25 |
| HassanCehef | to set the volume of your headphones/speakers, you'd have to do it in a terminal, but it's like a GUI, it's easy :) | 23:25 |
| AgAu | did you actually just open the pulse volume panel and check to make sure the sound is coming out of the right device? | 23:27 |
| HassanCehef | in my case, pulseaudio crashed after ~30min, or if i played a flash video. | 23:29 |
