reggie-manI'm trying to make a desktop entry for Minecraft. I put each size icon named mc.png into it's respective location (~/.local/share/icons/hicolor/16x16 etc) and then set the Icon key in the .desktop file to "mc", but the icon isn't displaying on the desktop entry.11:23

GwilhermHi everybody, I would appreciate some help because I have some troubles with pulseaudio/pavucontrol on a xubuntu 14.04 fresh install. Thanks in advance :)16:01
GwilhermActually, when I start the system and log in, all work fine. But when I run pavucontrol, it seems that pulseaudio crashes and pavucontrol says "Establishing connection to PulseAudio, please wait..." And no sound anymore16:01

xubuntu-sol-bsasHello, i'm a new user of xubuntu16:21
AgAuwelcome. how can we help?16:22
xubuntu-sol-bsasToday some upgrades were installed, and after that I've been having some serious problems. A sign of blocked user appeared on the screen, saying that it would unblock in a few seconds but it got locked in that state. So I turned off the computer and rebooted it. Afterwards, the screen looks like it would be working under safe mode, and I cannot connect to the internet16:23
xubuntu-sol-bsasthe screen looks pretty pixeled, low-quality image, the USB mouse doesn't work immediately, I have to reconnect it every time, and  there is an error message16:24
xubuntu-sol-bsas"org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.PermissionsInvalid:The premission of the setuid helper is not correct"16:25

xubuntu-sol-bsashello, i'm new to xubuntu17:23
xubuntu-sol-bsas Today some upgrades were installed, and after that I've been having some serious problems. A sign of blocked user appeared on the screen, saying that it would unblock in a few seconds but it got locked in that state.17:24
xubuntu-sol-bsasI believe that the problem is that upgrades were not completely installed, and so now the computer is in a kind of "safe mode" which I cannot get out. How can I remove the installed upgrades, or restore the system to the previous state? I cannot connect to Internet since this problem17:31
cfhowlettxubuntu-sol-bsas, reinstall = there is no rollback in ubunt17:34
=== Bl4ckSh4d0w is now known as zz_Bl4ckSh4d0w
AgAuunless you use lvm17:35
AgAuand snapshots :P17:35
xubuntu-sol-bsascfhowlett, should I reinstall the ubuntu?18:19
cfhowlettxubuntu-sol-bsas, ask in the main #ubuntu channel.  I didn't see your original question.18:20
internetmanwhy arent passwords for previous connected wireless networks remembered?18:23
pleia2internetman: they are for me and I've never had trouble with that, what version of Xubuntu are you using?18:27
internetmanpleia2: strange. im not 100% but I think this has been the case on differnet installs18:27
internetmanpleia2: 14.1018:27
internetmanif its just me i dont really care18:28
internetmani guess18:28
pleia2hm, strange18:29
pleia2I believe gnome-keyring is what remembers them, so if something is wrong with that or it's been removed that would cause problems18:30
Joe_knockHi there18:46

ubottuJoe_knock: Hi!, Welcome to #xubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines. Enjoy your stay!18:50
Joe_knockI'd like to know how to get Session Menu in 14.04. It was there in 12.04 but has now disappeared in 14.0418:51
pleia2Joe_knock: I think what you want is to add the "Action Buttons" to your panel18:57
Joe_knockpleia2: Does the "Action Buttons" contain a session manager where I can lock the screen, etc. ?18:59
pleia2Joe_knock: yep18:59
Joe_knocklast question: How do I decrease the "application menu" to not show the words "application menu" and have the icon only?19:03
cfhowlettJoe_knock, settings > appearance > settings > Toolbar style > icons19:05
Joe_knockcfhowlett: I am talking specifically about the "Application Menu". It has the Xubuntu icon and the words "Application Menu" next to each other on the left side.19:06
Joe_knockokay figured it out19:06
Joe_knockI had to edit it in the panel19:06
