| Astala | Hello everyone ! | 01:06 |
|---|---|---|
| knome | hello | 01:06 |
| Astala | i have a litle problem, i simply want to change the Windows bar font color, i found many links on the web telling that i need to edit a file called Themerc, but i have no idea where it is... | 01:07 |
| Astala | its a config file for xfwm4 | 01:08 |
| knome | do you mean the window border color? | 01:08 |
| Astala | no the windows text font color ^^' | 01:08 |
| knome | sorry, i meant the window border font color... | 01:08 |
| Astala | exactly, for example, the one that says Terminal-Roots blablabla | 01:09 |
| knome | ok, here's what you ideally want to do: | 01:09 |
| Astala | the description of the windows | 01:09 |
| Astala | yes ? | 01:09 |
| knome | go to /usr/share/themes and find your theme | 01:09 |
| knome | copy that directory (eg. Greybird) to /home/yourusername/.themes | 01:09 |
| knome | if the .themes directory does not exist, you can create it | 01:09 |
| knome | after copying, change the name of that directory to something else, like Greybird-modified | 01:10 |
| knome | you'll find the themerc file under that directory in "xfwm4" | 01:10 |
| Astala | it exist, but i dont see my theme insode ... | 01:10 |
| knome | read the instructions again | 01:11 |
| knome | you want to find your theme under /usr/share/themes first | 01:11 |
| knome | and copy it to ~/.themes | 01:11 |
| Astala | give me a sec, my english is not very good ^^' | 01:12 |
| knome | sure | 01:12 |
| Astala | Ow i have to find the Windows bar theme in usr/share/themes ? | 01:12 |
| Astala | not the main xfce theme ? | 01:12 |
| knome | yes, the window border theme | 01:13 |
| Astala | okay i found it ! | 01:15 |
| knome | now copy it under /home/yourusername/.themes | 01:15 |
| Astala | so now if i change it, the modification will be done directly or do i have to do something else with it ? | 01:15 |
| knome | don't change the theme in /usr | 01:16 |
| knome | copy it under .themes | 01:16 |
| knome | and change the name | 01:16 |
| Astala | yep its done | 01:16 |
| knome | that way you can always revert if you change your mind | 01:16 |
| knome | once you've done the modifications, just pick the new theme name from the settings manager | 01:16 |
| Astala | in the windows themes manager ? | 01:17 |
| knome | yes | 01:17 |
| Astala | it will appear even if it is on home/name/themes ? | 01:17 |
| knome | yes (but note that it needs to be /home/name/.themes with the dot) | 01:18 |
| Astala | ow okay so i will ad the dot | 01:18 |
| Astala | mmh strange it say i cant rename it because the file already exist | 01:18 |
| Astala | maybe its hidden ? | 01:19 |
| knome | then you probably have a .themes directory already | 01:19 |
| knome | yes, directories and files that start with a dot are hidden | 01:19 |
| knome | you can show them from the view menu in thunar | 01:19 |
| Astala | mh sorry but what is thunar ? | 01:19 |
| Astala | the file browser ? | 01:20 |
| knome | the default file manager in xubuntu | 01:20 |
| Astala | Ow okay i found : view show hidden files | 01:20 |
| Astala | okay done | 01:21 |
| Astala | a last question | 01:21 |
| Astala | the colors configuration need something like this #dcdcdc | 01:21 |
| Astala | where can i find the correct code for other colors ? | 01:22 |
| knome | yes, that's the hex value of the color | 01:22 |
| knome | look for hex values, there are also tools that compute you those | 01:22 |
| Astala | like this : http://www.color-hex.com/ | 01:23 |
| Astala | ? | 01:23 |
| knome | yes, for example | 01:23 |
| Astala | yeah i think that's it ! | 01:23 |
| Astala | well, my friend thanks you very much for your help ! | 01:23 |
| knome | you're welcome | 01:23 |
| Astala | i will try this =D | 01:23 |
| Astala | knome, thanks you again, everything where fine, it looks amaizing !, thanks for you reactivity and you help, see ya ! | 01:28 |
| knome | no problem, enjoy xubuntu | 01:29 |
| not_dammit | would an incorrect default terminal setting be considered a bug? | 01:33 |
| not_dammit | 256-color terminals is broken out of the box because $COLORTERM is set to gnome-terminal | 01:34 |
| knome | probably | 01:35 |
| knome | though it isn't that for me... | 01:35 |
| not_dammit | huh. | 01:35 |
| not_dammit | hmmm | 01:36 |
| not_dammit | I don't think I did much set-up before I tried to colorterm | 01:36 |
| not_dammit | might be an isolated case | 01:36 |
| knome | which xubuntu version are you using? | 01:36 |
| not_dammit | newest | 01:37 |
| not_dammit | unicorn I think | 01:37 |
| not_dammit | *14.04 | 01:37 |
| knome | i'm running 14.04 too, and i've upgraded a long way, and i still don't have that | 01:38 |
| knome | did you happen to install gnome-terminal before looking at the variable? | 01:38 |
| not_dammit | would changing the default terminal cause this? | 01:38 |
| not_dammit | nope | 01:38 |
| knome | possible | 01:38 |
| not_dammit | I use terminator | 01:38 |
| not_dammit | probably just an isolated issue then | 01:38 |
| knome | yes, on a very fresh vivid (development) installation, i have xfce4-terminal | 01:39 |
| not_dammit | welp | 01:39 |
| not_dammit | would you recommend changing the variable in the default config or in the user's .bashrc | 01:40 |
| knome | depends on your usecase | 01:40 |
| knome | if other users need it to be something else, then users, if not, then change the global value | 01:41 |
| not_dammit | thanks | 01:41 |

| hubert_ | Hello, i have trouble getting wlan stick to run on desktop pc, this is the output of some wlan info script i found http://paste.ubuntu.com/10107040/ (got xubuntu 14.04 and TP Link T2UH ac600, which should nativly work on ubuntu) | 10:28 |
| hubert_ | got disconnected, did somebody answer me? | 10:53 |
| brainwash | hubert_: no. it's not a xubuntu specific question, so you could also ask in #ubuntu | 10:55 |
| brainwash | in case no one here knows an answer | 10:56 |
| natus | my isp blocks irc and bittorent but I want to know how, any command or program that can help me? | 12:43 |
| natus | When I mean Irc it's not webirc | 12:45 |
| Humie | is there a similar panel icon in xubuntu?? https://en.opensuse.org/index.php?title=File:OpenSUSE_12.1_Xfce_Update_Notifier.png&filetimestamp=20111104112143 | 13:33 |
| spupy | hi, im in a computer lab using some xubuntu. I want to change the behaviour of capslock. I dont think xmodmap is an options, but I *think* there used to be a control panel that allowed such modifications to mod keys. Do i remember correctly? Cant find it.. | 14:23 |
| lduros | hi, how can I upgrade to 14.10 from 14.04, running update-manager -d throws an error when trying to do something with the sources | 16:12 |
| lduros | Besides I don't think I need to run it with -d, since it's not a development version, correct? | 16:12 |
| Unit193 | lduros: You don't want -d grep Prompt /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades | 16:13 |
| lduros | aaah, Prompt=lts | 16:14 |
| lduros | that's why | 16:14 |
| lduros | it's set to fetch long term only | 16:14 |
| lduros | I guess I should switch it to normal then | 16:14 |
| Unit193 | Mhmm. | 16:14 |
| lduros | Unit193: good to know! i'll edit the file to have it use normal | 16:14 |
| lduros | trying again to run update-manager | 16:15 |
| lduros | looks like it's prompting me, awesome! | 16:15 |
| lduros | it failed as "Setting new software channels" earlier, but it looks like it's running now | 16:15 |
| lduros | oh no, still got the error | 16:16 |
| lduros | "Could not calculate the upgrade" | 16:16 |
| lduros | http://hastebin.com/honinukepa.vhdl | 16:16 |
| lduros | this is the full msg | 16:16 |
| Unit193 | That doesn't really help much. :P Can you either check logs or run do-release-upgrade ? | 16:18 |
| lduros | trying do release upgrade first | 16:18 |
| lduros | http://hastebin.com/qecufufodi.pas | 16:20 |
| lduros | there are lots of errors with dl.google.com, which I think is because I installed Chrome from there | 16:20 |
| lduros | Needed both Chromium and Chrome for testing something | 16:20 |
| lduros | oddly enough there are other errors: Err http://us.archive.ubuntu.com trusty/main Translation-en_US | 16:21 |
| Unit193 | I'd guess it's the additional repos/PPAs. I'd just follow along with what it says, or check any logs under /var/log/dist-upgrade/ | 16:22 |
| lduros | hmmm, ok, i'll investigate this later, thanks :) I thought it would be a quick thing looks like i'll have to postpone this :). thanks again | 16:24 |

| Mobbad | hi im having problems whit samba on xubuntu 14.04 some willing to help? | 19:28 |
| baizon | !ask | Mobbad | 19:35 |
| ubottu | Mobbad: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 19:35 |
| Mobbad | Hi, im having file sharing problems between my xubuntu and win8. I can find the comp and brows it but i cant see any folders, and samba won´t start. Can any one point me in the right direction ? | 19:37 |
| sidi | Mobbad, i'm not a Xubuntu user so cannot actually help but you need to describe whether you're trying to see Ubuntu files from Windows or the other way around | 20:03 |
| sidi | as a matter of fact, Windows is unable to read some of the filesystem formats used by Linux, such as ext3/ext4. You'd need to put your shared data on a FAT32 or NTFS share most probably. Note that these filesystems formats do not support symbolic links. | 20:03 |
| Mobbad | im trying to see my shared files on my windows comp from my xubuntu comp | 20:05 |
| Mobbad | as i said i can see the windows computer on the network and connect to it. but i see no files on it. | 20:08 |
| sidi | Mobbad, probably a permission problem on your windows computer then | 20:11 |
| Mobbad | ok, will check that later when i get permission to sit on that computer from the mrs | 20:15 |
| Mobbad | thanks for the taking the time to answer anyway :) | 20:17 |
| sidi | you're welcome | 20:26 |
| GeekDude | I've put a TV tuner card into my desktop, and I'm using the composite input on it. I can't get VLC to show anything, but it does show up (with interlacing and kinda blurry) in xawtv | 21:54 |
| GeekDude | I've tried to no avail to get it to play in both VLC and mplayer, but I just can't get it to work | 21:54 |
| GeekDude | Does anyone here have any tips I could try? | 21:54 |
| GeekDude | Seems the "tvtime" application works as well, and it gives a much better pictures | 22:05 |

| dchilano | hi everyone | 23:41 |
| dchilano | I just downloaded an install binary for securstick and nothing happened when trying to execute it. | 23:42 |
| dchilano | how can I be sure that it just didn't run and that perhaps it isn't something malicious? | 23:42 |
| GeekDude | Try checking in the task manager if its process is running or not | 23:43 |
| dchilano | how do I check the task manager? | 23:44 |
| GeekDude | open the whisker menu, type task manager, run task manager, and scroll through the process list looking for the name of the file you tried to execute | 23:44 |
| knome | dchilano, generally, never download binaries or applications from sources you don't completely trust | 23:45 |
| dchilano | knome: I don't know what I was thinking | 23:45 |
| dchilano | knome: what do you think? http://snag.gy/5lZmu.jpg | 23:50 |
| knome | dchilano, about what? | 23:51 |
| dchilano | about the proccesses named "SecurStick-linux" | 23:51 |
| dchilano | if, you don't mind my asking? | 23:52 |
| knome | well i think you have processes named that running | 23:52 |
| knome | i don't know what they are supposed to do | 23:52 |
| dchilano | k | 23:53 |
