[01:27] <delt> Hello
[01:28] <delt> Someone care to test a mac/osx like xfce theme? A user has been having problems with it, but we couldn't figure out what is wrong.....

[01:29] <delt> It's actually just a modified version of Greybird, with osx titlebar buttons and a thicker lower-window border. Any screenshots of this on your system would be VERY appreciated ---> www.deimos.ca/miscjunk/greybird-mac.tar.gz
[01:30] <delt> uh.... i mean http://www.deimos.ca/miscjunk/greybird-mac.tar.gz
[01:31] <delt> untar to your /usr/share/themes, select in the window manager control panel, and take a screenshot :D :D

[01:52] <kasad> aloha
[01:52] <kasad> so, doing favour to a friend, who needs old machine "renewed" and adapted so his mother can follor something online
[01:52] <kasad> they have 200 gig ntfs data partition
[01:53] <kasad> I have 55 gig free
[01:53] <kasad> what partition scheme do you recommend for xubuntu for those 55 gig
[01:53] <kasad>  double the ram for /swap and rest /
[01:53] <kasad> is that ok?
[01:53] <kasad> and should I use ext4 for /
[01:54] <kasad> also should I maybe separate /home to diff partition?
[01:55] <wolf1> i would recommend a separate /home partition kasad  and i would use ext4
[01:57] <bazhang> ext4 is really de rigeur for /
[01:57] <bazhang> perhaps you were thinking of /boot
[01:58] <kasad> de rigeur?
[01:58] <kasad> so separate /boot / and /home
[02:00] <bazhang> de rigeur = a must
[02:00] <bazhang>  /boot is optional, but better not to use btrfs for that
[02:07] <delt> kasad: for swap, at least the amount of ram you have, maybe more depending what you want to do.
[02:08] <delt> kasad: and yeah, a small primary partition for /boot, otherwise your system won't be able to boot on some motherboard/bios setups.... 1 or 2 GB should be enough for /boot
[02:09] <delt> the rest you can simply leave for / ....unless you have some fancy configuration with several hard disks or something
[02:16] <delt> if you want to install across, say 2 harddisks/partitions, personally i'd put the smaller one as / and the larger one as /home
[08:35] <xubuntu38w> Hello I am having trouble with Youtube displaying buttons while watching a video here is what it looks like http://s18.postimg.org/ubwi7clvd/Screenshot_12272014_02_29_39_AM.png
[08:39] <xubuntu38w> anyone?
[13:45] <sunsetjessie> I need wallpaper help.  How do I changwe the wallpaper?  when I try to change to my own image the files are disabled.
[13:51] <brainwash> sunsetjessie: can you please rephrase your question? what do you try exactly? which files are disabled?
[13:51] <brainwash> maybe even upload a screenshot
[14:04] <sunsetjessie> I can change the background to one of the default files. but, if I change folders to say the download folder where I have some images downloaded the jpg files are disabled.
[14:05] <brainwash> sunsetjessie: how are they disabled?
[14:06] <brainwash> did you test different image types?
[14:07] <brainwash> an alternative approach would be to right click on the file in the file manager and set it as wallpaper
[14:08] <sunsetjessie> llet me try that
[14:09] <brainwash> your problem does seem to be a common one. I've only heard about missing preview pictures in the desktop settings window
[14:11] <sunsetjessie> the right click idea worked, thanks Brainwash
[14:11] <brainwash> great :)
