[01:06] <Astala> Hello everyone !
[01:06] <knome> hello
[01:07] <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...
[01:08] <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...
[01:09] <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
[01:10] <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 ...
[01:11] <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
[01:12] <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 ?
[01:13] <knome> yes, the window border theme
[01:15] <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 ?
[01:16] <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
[01:17] <Astala> in the windows themes manager ?
[01:17] <knome> yes
[01:17] <Astala> it will appear even if it is on home/name/themes ?
[01:18] <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
[01:19] <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 ?
[01:20] <Astala> the file browser ?
[01:20] <knome> the default file manager in xubuntu
[01:20] <Astala> Ow okay i found : view show hidden files
[01:21] <Astala> okay done
[01:21] <Astala> a last question
[01:21] <Astala> the colors configuration need something like this #dcdcdc
[01:22] <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
[01:23] <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
[01:28] <Astala> knome, thanks you again, everything where fine, it looks amaizing !, thanks for you reactivity and you help, see ya !
[01:29] <knome> no problem, enjoy xubuntu
[01:33] <not_dammit> would an incorrect default terminal setting be considered a bug?
[01:34] <not_dammit> 256-color terminals is broken out of the box because $COLORTERM is set to gnome-terminal
[01:35] <knome> probably
[01:35] <knome> though it isn't that for me...
[01:35] <not_dammit> huh.
[01:36] <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?
[01:37] <not_dammit> newest
[01:37] <not_dammit> unicorn I think
[01:37] <not_dammit> *14.04
[01:38] <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
[01:39] <knome> yes, on a very fresh vivid (development) installation, i have xfce4-terminal
[01:39] <not_dammit> welp
[01:40] <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
[01:41] <knome> if other users need it to be something else, then users, if not, then change the global value
[01:41] <not_dammit> thanks
[09:57] <xubuntu36w> I am trying to install xubuntu for the first time can some one give me quick steps
[09:57] <cfhowlett> !install | xubuntu36w,
[09:58] <xubuntu36w> Thanks a lot
[10:28] <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)
[10:53] <hubert_> got disconnected, did somebody answer me?
[10:55] <brainwash> hubert_: no. it's not a xubuntu specific question, so you could also ask in #ubuntu
[10:56] <brainwash> in case no one here knows an answer
[12:43] <natus> my isp blocks irc and bittorent but I want to know how, any command or program that can help me?
[12:45] <natus> When I mean Irc it's not webirc
[13:33] <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
[14:23] <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..
[16:12] <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?
[16:13] <Unit193> lduros: You don't want -d  grep Prompt /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades
[16:14] <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
[16:15] <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
[16:16] <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
[16:18] <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
[16:20] <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
[16:21] <lduros> oddly enough there are other errors: Err http://us.archive.ubuntu.com trusty/main Translation-en_US
[16:22] <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/
[16:24] <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

[19:28] <Mobbad> hi im having problems whit samba on xubuntu 14.04 some willing to help?
[19:35] <baizon> !ask | Mobbad
[19:37] <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 ?
[20:03] <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.
[20:05] <Mobbad> im trying to see my shared files on my windows comp from my xubuntu comp
[20:08] <Mobbad> as i said i can see the windows computer on the network and connect to it. but i see no files on it.
[20:11] <sidi> Mobbad, probably a permission problem on your windows computer then
[20:15] <Mobbad> ok, will check that later when i get permission to sit on that computer from the mrs
[20:17] <Mobbad> thanks for the taking the time to answer anyway :)
[20:26] <sidi> you're welcome
[21:54] <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?
[22:05] <GeekDude> Seems the "tvtime" application works as well, and it gives a much better pictures
[23:41] <dchilano> hi everyone
[23:42] <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?
[23:43] <GeekDude> Try checking in the task manager if its process is running or not
[23:44] <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
[23:45] <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
[23:50] <dchilano> knome: what do you think? http://snag.gy/5lZmu.jpg
[23:51] <knome> dchilano, about what?
[23:51] <dchilano> about the proccesses named "SecurStick-linux"
[23:52] <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
[23:53] <dchilano> k
