xubuntu244 | okay its xubuntu | 00:10 |
knome | xubuntu244, it isn't; stop lying. you can get support for voyager in their support channels | 00:10 |
knome | xubuntu244, besides, even xubuntu 12.10 is end-of-life, so no support for that anyway | 00:11 |
Unit193 | Just saying "okay its xubuntu" doesn't make it Xubuntu, I'd recommend trying their support channel(s), forums, or whereever they provide support. | 00:11 |
Nixus | anyone know how to change the sensitivity of the resizing mode trigger? sorry I don't know what to call it. | 00:15 |
knome | are you probably referring to the window border size? | 00:15 |
Nixus | no, you know when you put your cursor over a corner, you can resize it? | 00:16 |
knome | yes, i would still think you are talking about the window border | 00:17 |
Nixus | ok? | 00:17 |
ochosi | or just hold the "alt" key and right-click drag to resize | 00:17 |
knome | if you want to use the mouse-only resizing and make the "cue" area bigger, switch to a theme that has bigger borders | 00:18 |
Nixus | oh, wow never knew that. thanks ochosi! | 00:18 |
knome | Nixus, http://xubuntu.org/news/window-resizing-in-xubuntu-and-xfce/ | 00:18 |
ochosi | Nixus: np, it's my personal favorite for resizing ;) | 00:19 |
AgAu | that's a handy tip! way easier than grabbing the edges :P | 00:19 |
knome | same here, except i've changed that key binding to super | 00:20 |
Nixus | I'm considering turning off my window borders, as I can do everything from the keyboard | 00:20 |
Nixus | also, some of my icons don't seem to change in the "cycle windows" menu. any ideas? sorry for the amount of noob questions | 00:22 |
ochosi | no problem | 00:23 |
ochosi | you can't fix that | 00:23 |
ochosi | it's the app's fault of not setting a proper application icon | 00:23 |
ochosi | (there's an xorg standard for that that window managers adhere to, but apps have to feed it the proper icon, and some nasty apps hardcode tiny-resolution fugly icons) | 00:24 |
ochosi | so best report a bug against the offending apps | 00:24 |
Nixus | ok | 00:24 |
Nixus | yeah, it's also anoying that some icons are really low res, while others are quite high. | 00:25 |
ochosi | yup, mostly the apps fault | 00:28 |
ochosi | especially in the alt-tab dialog | 00:28 |
Nixus | yes, I want my <3 Numix icons EVERYWHERE! LOL | 00:28 |
Nixus | my indicator plugin in my panel isn't transparent. any ideas? my compositor is on. | 01:50 |
xangua | Neither mine, at least in 14.04 | 01:53 |
Nixus | weird, it was just working 15 mins ago... | 01:54 |
xangua | Seems to be an issue with Ubuntu indicators or maybe some themes | 01:54 |
Nixus | know of a fix? It's really hard to see and looks terrible | 01:55 |
xangua | I remember I tried some ambiance theme for xfce, yes | 01:56 |
xangua | Have you tried another theme? | 01:56 |
Nixus | no luck, just reinstalled it | 01:58 |
Nixus | it's always white :/ | 01:58 |
=== bazhang_ is now known as bazhang | ||
Nixus | ? | 02:07 |
Nixus | how's xubuntu 14.10 in terms of stability? I might switch to it after some transparency issues. | 02:32 |
RobertJDohnert | Hey guys | 04:25 |
RobertJDohnert | Hows it going | 04:25 |

iyan | After remove GVim, then I remove the /usr/share/vim directory. I install GVim again, the toolbar is disappear. Help me, if you have install GVim on your Xubuntu, please give me a copy of your /usr/share/vim files. | 10:55 |
deshipu | iyan: apt-get install --reinstall vim-common | 11:07 |
deshipu | also vim-gui-common | 11:08 |
xubs | hello, i'm trying to install xubuntu 14.04.01 on usb flash drive via disk creator but it says that "there is not enough free space for this image" | 11:57 |
knome | xubs, what size is your flash drive? | 12:18 |
xubs | knome, 16gb | 12:53 |
octoid | What is the correct way to execute 'powertop --auto-tune' on boot with xubuntu 14.04? | 13:20 |
tekeia | hi guys | 17:30 |
tekeia | is there any method to open the irc server on the terminal? | 17:31 |
tekeia | guys? | 17:32 |
knome | tekeia, patience please | 17:33 |
tekeia | all right | 17:37 |
knome | for the question itself, there are many CLI irc clients, like irssi | 17:38 |
tekeia | ohhh, well | 17:38 |
tekeia | i got it | 17:39 |
tekeia | my xubuntu already came with xchat | 17:39 |
tekeia | then i opened terminal and put xchat irc, and then it opened | 17:39 |
tekeia | thank you! | 17:39 |
knome | right... sure, that works if you just want to launch a GUI client from the terminal | 17:39 |
tekei4 | yes... | 17:41 |
tekei4 | do you guys use twitter? | 17:41 |
knome | like https://twitter.com/Xubuntu ? | 17:41 |
flux242 | does someone know what app calles xflock4? | 18:38 |
dalekusa | hey folks | 19:25 |
dalekusa | I have an Xbox one controller, and I am wondering if I should download a newer version of the kernel in order to use it with my computer | 19:26 |
knome | how have you tried to connect it to your computer? | 19:29 |
dalekusa | I have 14.10 | 19:29 |
dalekusa | it runs kernel 3.16 | 19:29 |
dalekusa | support wasn't added until 3.17 | 19:29 |
dalekusa | knome | 19:30 |
dalekusa | How do I get my Xbox One controller to run on Utopic, which runs a kernel one version earlier than when support was added? | 20:00 |
Klonedio | hello good people. i have trouble installing xubuntu on Packard Bell easynote te69kb - a laptop that is way too lightweight for win8.1, yet came with it embedded. it my friend made me a xubuntu usb syick with the Universal USB Installer, exe. it booted, then it halted before any proper installation could occur.. | 20:02 |
sidi | Klonedio, just my two cents but the most likely reason would be that the USB stick has been improperly made | 20:27 |
sidi | I would test it elsewhere first | 20:27 |
Beerad85 | Well | 20:37 |
Harlequin_ | hello guys. I'm torn. Which do you think is better/more polished? Xubuntu 14.10 or Linux Mint 17.1 | 21:08 |
elfy | xubuntu 14.10 ... | 21:08 |
Hund | Harlequin_: I'd have to say Xubuntu. | 21:08 |
Harlequin_ | why? | 21:08 |
elfy | why do you think? | 21:09 |
Hund | Big and old community. | 21:09 |
Harlequin_ | what is the compelling reason to use Xubuntu instead? | 21:09 |
Hund | And Xubuntu doesnt come with 20.000 packages. :P | 21:09 |
Harlequin_ | I'm confused whether or not that is a good or bad thing | 21:10 |
Hund | Depends I guess. Xubuntu comes with a lot of stuff to. | 21:10 |
Hund | I dont like a lot of stuff myself. :P | 21:11 |
Harlequin_ | so Xubuntu has bigger community? | 21:11 |
Hund | Yes | 21:11 |
Hund | Its from the Ubuntu famiyl | 21:11 |
Hund | family* | 21:11 |
Harlequin_ | Are you saying that Xubuntu is considered an official "flavor" of Ubuntu? | 21:11 |
elfy | it IS one :) | 21:11 |
Hund | ^ | 21:12 |
elfy | http://www.ubuntu.com/about/about-ubuntu/flavours | 21:12 |
Harlequin_ | and that it is actiually recognized by Canonical? | 21:12 |
elfy | yes | 21:12 |
Harlequin_ | awesome | 21:12 |
Hund | And Mint makes you think of sweets. Thats a no no! :D | 21:13 |
Harlequin_ | on a stability standpoint, does Xubuntu still win? | 21:13 |
Hund | Yes | 21:13 |
Hund | I've been using Xubuntu on and off since 2008 and I never had any problems with it. | 21:13 |
Harlequin_ | I like Matthew Moore's channel on YouTube. He seem to have given Xubuntu a bad review | 21:14 |
Hund | I use it on my server/HTPC for the past years now. | 21:14 |
elfy | Harlequin_: people do that - others do the opposite - instead of trying to get others to make the decision for you - try them both, make your own mind up | 21:14 |
Harlequin_ | he said (on a comment) that Xubuntu has given him hardware-level problems. Whatever that is. | 21:15 |
Harlequin_ | and that concerns me | 21:15 |
Harlequin_ | personally, I love Xubuntu. That's the one I have installed as my daily driver | 21:15 |
deshipu | xubuntu uses exactly the same kernel as ubuntu and all the other linux distributions out there | 21:16 |
Harlequin_ | but I'm still in a constant search for feedbacksw | 21:16 |
Hund | If it works, dont fix it. :P | 21:16 |
flux242 | щ | 21:16 |
Harlequin_ | now if you guys can assure me 100% that Xubuntu is rock-solid, then I might just settle down with it and quit distro hopping altogether. | 21:17 |
elfy | no-one is going to do that | 21:17 |
Harlequin_ | Good job with the boot screen btw | 21:17 |
Harlequin_ | it looks fantastic | 21:17 |
Hund | Yeah. I looks really good these days. | 21:18 |
flux242 | to get tearing free desktop deactivate xfce compositor and install compton | 21:19 |
whyameye | I just upgraded from 12.04 to 14.04 and now I have global menus (which I do not want). How do I shut that off? | 21:34 |
flux242 | what do you mean by global menus? | 21:36 |
Unit193 | I'd check for unity. | 21:36 |
whyameye | global menus are when the menu for the application shows up in the top status bar instead of in the app's window | 21:37 |
flux242 | you sure you've installed xubuntu? | 21:37 |
whyameye | yeah | 21:38 |
whyameye | this is an old system, it probably has 3 window managers on it or something, but xfce4 is what I am in right now | 21:38 |
Unit193 | whyameye: OK, well can you give a list of metapackages installed, or check for anything unity or gnome related running? | 21:38 |
whyameye | launch GNOME services on startup is checked. Maybe I should uncheck that and reboot | 21:40 |
whyameye | well this is weird: the terminal window has its menus in its window, but Firefox and Chromium are doing global menus | 21:41 |
flux242 | pastebin ps -A | 21:41 |
Unit193 | whyameye: If it helps make you feel any better, my upgraded 14.04 never had global menus, nor does my 14.10. | 21:42 |
whyameye | yeah I updated another machine from 12.04 to 14.04 and it didn't have this problem either | 21:43 |
whyameye | gonna reboot... | 21:44 |
whyameye | I was confused. I'm not seeing global menus. I'm seeing something from the indicator plugin | 21:57 |
flo__ | xubuntu is awesome | 23:27 |
flo__ | just sayin | 23:27 |
AgAu | tis indeed | 23:31 |
knome | flo__, thanks for the feedback, and enjoy | 23:44 |
