| rosaecaeruleae | the actual "owner" of that directory is me, not root, i recursively changed owner and group to "me", that was not a good idea... | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| rosaecaeruleae | i now want to revert the "LOST And found directory" to its original owener, root | 00:00 |

| torejls | Gentlemen - I type this command in terminal: sudo gedit /etc/init.d/boinc-client | 17:54 |
| torejls | But it dosent work | 17:54 |
| torejls | anybody know if something else works but gives the same result? | 17:54 |
| elfy | try using mousepad instead - we don't install gedit | 17:54 |
| elfy | also you can use pkexec to get root rights | 17:55 |
| elfy | pkexec mousepad /etc/init.d/boinc-client | 17:55 |
| torejls | thank you, sir. But it seems like it failed in terminal. "Cannot open display | 17:56 |
| elfy | what version of xubuntu are you using? | 17:59 |
| elfy | and where are you trying to do this - in the desktop environment or in a virtual terminal? | 18:01 |
| elfy | if you're not in the desktop - then use sudo nano to edit it | 18:03 |
| ghostxubuntu23w | Hey is anyone here having issues with the latest update of STEAM? Where it just opens for a second then craps out. Running 'steam' in terminal gives me a segfault...? | 18:04 |
| deshipu | I don't think there is steam in xubuntu repositories | 18:07 |
| krytarik | !info steam | deshipu | 18:08 |
| ubottu | deshipu: steam (source: steam): Valve's Steam digital software delivery system. In component multiverse, is extra. Version 1:1.0.0.48-1ubuntu1 (utopic), package size 853 kB, installed size 2658 kB (Only available for i386) | 18:08 |
| deshipu | wow, I stand corrected, thanks | 18:10 |
| elfy | even so - unless there are people here able to help - might be better in #ubuntu | 18:11 |
| elfy | more eyes there | 18:11 |
| knome | or a steam channel | 18:12 |
| ghostxubuntu23w | Ubuntu is more populated? | 18:26 |
| ghostxubuntu23w | but XFCE is so much better than the new GNOME :( | 18:26 |
| deshipu | doesn't Ubuntu use Unity? :) | 18:29 |
| knome | aka "the new GNOME"? :P | 18:37 |
| knome | (no, not really, but who knows what all these DE names and DE's are, except geeks) | 18:37 |
| brainwash | ghostxubuntu23w: #ubuntu-steam | 18:40 |

| torejls | sorry for late reply: I want to edit a config file in etc/init.d/boinc-client | 18:50 |
| torejls | when i go directly to the folder it wont let me save. seems i have to go trough terminal for root permission | 18:51 |
| knome | torejls, use a CLI text editor; sudo nano /etc/init.d/boinc-client | 18:51 |
| torejls | that worked. thanks a lot :)) | 18:52 |
| knome | no problem | 18:52 |
| ghostxubuntu23w | I call it GNOME3 as is "3 sucks" | 19:13 |

| tjukkola | Hello everyone. Just asking is it possible to update xubuntu live USB? I tried to update mine and I think I broke it. | 21:14 |
| ghostxubuntu23w | how to do you mean @ TJ? | 21:17 |
| elfy | tjukkola: just reboot it | 21:18 |
| ghostxubuntu23w | what like wiping it clean? | 21:18 |
| ghostxubuntu23w | fresh start? | 21:18 |
| elfy | you can update and install when using the livesession - but reboot will undo all that | 21:18 |
| ghostxubuntu23w | ^^ | 21:18 |
| ghostxubuntu23w | Maybe someone can correct me but I ALWAYS start fresh | 21:18 |
| ghostxubuntu23w | IE delete the partition | 21:18 |
| ghostxubuntu23w | put a new ext4 on | 21:18 |
| ghostxubuntu23w | reformat | 21:18 |
| ghostxubuntu23w | reinstall | 21:18 |
| ghostxubuntu23w | unless you're talking more specific | 21:19 |
| ghostxubuntu23w | Wasn't sure if you meant like someting going from 12.04 to 14.04 | 21:19 |
| ghostxubuntu23w | LTS | 21:19 |
| === happy-dude_ is now known as happy-dude | ||
| ghostxubuntu23w | or whatever | 21:19 |
| ghostxubuntu23w | What exactly are you trying to do TJ? | 21:19 |
| knome | ghostxubuntu23w, please don't use enter as punctuation | 21:20 |
| ghostxubuntu23w | oh sorry I'll just use long run-on sentences instead | 21:21 |
| knome | elfy, wonder what persistence is supposed to react to upgrading... or is just persisting personal files, eg. /home ? | 21:21 |
| knome | ^ s/what/how | 21:21 |
| elfy | not sure tbh | 21:21 |
| elfy | I think that a persistent will let you install *things* | 21:22 |
| tjukkola | I ran xubuntu live to try it out. After update it wanted to restart and after restart it didn't work anymore. | 21:25 |
| tjukkola | Said that cannot find live file system or something like that. Can't remember. Sorry. | 21:27 |
| knome | can't know how to fix then, sorry | 21:28 |
| Nixus | hey I'm having window tearing on my Xubuntu, any way to fix this? Maybe a different window manage? sorry, but nobody seems to answer it on ubuntu-offtopic (-_-) | 21:30 |

| ochosi | yeah, you can try that | 21:44 |
| ochosi | but there are no guarantees | 21:44 |
| ochosi | you can also try to use compton instead of xfwm4's compositor | 21:45 |
| Nixus | ok? does tearing have to do with compositing? | 21:46 |
| ochosi | oh well, better read up on tearing online, this is too big a subject to repeat it here in the channel | 21:46 |
| Nixus | ok, sorry for spam was trying to copy something else, but was pressing the wrong button *embarrased* | 21:47 |
| deshipu | ochosi: is compton already usable? | 21:51 |
| ochosi | deshipu: yeah | 21:52 |
| ochosi | all you have to do to try it is to install it, deactivate the compositor in xfwm4's advanced wm tweaks dialog and then run "compton" in the terminal | 21:53 |
| ochosi | if you want it persistently, you can also add it to the autostarted apps | 21:53 |
| deshipu | ochosi: if I disable compositing in the tweaks, xfwm4 will stop trying to use transparency and shadows :( | 21:55 |
| ochosi | yeah, obviously that is the idea | 21:55 |
| ochosi | compton will do that once you launch it | 21:55 |
| deshipu | nope | 21:56 |
| deshipu | also, terminals are no longer transparent | 21:56 |
| deshipu | ah, it has to be enabled | 21:58 |

| rosaecaeruleae | hi | 22:34 |
| rosaecaeruleae | is it a good idea to rename back the lost+found file of an external hdd ext4 formatted? rename, I mean to make root the new owner, as it should be. Now the owner and group of said directory are "me" | 22:35 |
| Nixus | Sorry if this is off topic, IDK if it is. if I exit XChat IRC and reopen it, I have to change my name, join servers/channels all over again. Is there a way to make it save all this? thanks | 23:39 |
| Nixus | anyone? | 23:50 |
| Unit193 | Nixus: I know you can have "favorite" channels, and there's a box to put your nick as well. Can't tell you more, not used it enough. | 23:53 |
| Unit193 | Nixus: You could just use Hexchat and ask in #hexchat | 23:53 |
| Nixus | ok | 23:55 |
| Nixus | also,I have another issue: whenever I extract a file using thunar file manager, the archive manager crashes. thanks | 23:55 |
