BuddyButterflyanyone tried xubuntu in kvm with spice?12:23
BuddyButterflyEnhancement suggestion: Increase corner area for resizing windows. It is very tricky to hit the corner ;-)12:24
LuyinBuddyButterfly: I use alt + right mouse button or alt+F7 (custom shortcut) to resize ;)12:33
BuddyButterfly?13:33
brainwashBuddyButterfly: http://xubuntu.org/news/window-resizing-in-xubuntu-and-xfce/13:39
BuddyButterflyah, will try. thanks. Though, the resize grips are very small.....13:40
BuddyButterflyany idea why xubuntu does not work in kvm with spice?13:41
brainwashonly xubuntu?13:42
brainwashif it's a general ubuntu issue, please ask in #ubuntu and/or #kvm13:43
BuddyButterflyyes, only xubuntu13:47
BuddyButterflycompared it directly to fresh install with kubuntu.13:47
BuddyButterflykubuntu works fine. xubuntu gets crippled fonts etc.13:47
BuddyButterflyI have installed an encrypted system. xubuntu 14.10 did not start at all after reboot. 14.04 was able to start. Though splash for password can not be used as no keyboard input is accepted. One has to force shutdown and enter it then in textual mode. Splash must be then switched off to be able unlock.13:49
BuddyButterflysame thing with the splash in virtualbox. No input accepted. Has to be switched off to get it to unlock.13:50
BuddyButterflyKubuntu workds, though.13:50

BuddyButterflyany ide?14:01
BuddyButterflyidea?14:01
BuddyButterflyor, could you verify?14:01
brainwashBuddyButterfly: sadly no idea15:46
BuddyButterflyok, but tnx für looking.15:47
brainwashBuddyButterfly: it's just strange that kubuntu works fine. did you install them both with full disk encryption?15:48
BuddyButterflyyes, both with full disk encryption.15:49
BuddyButterflythat the splash does not work is not so important, though, annoying. But that 14.10 does not start is really a problem.15:50
brainwashthe splash/boot screen is rendered by plymouth, and it should behave identically across all ubuntu flavors I'd think15:50
BuddyButterflybut it does not....15:51
brainwashI suggest that you test the current development release 15.0415:51
brainwashto see if the issue is still present15:51
BuddyButterflythere must be some differences maybe in kernel parameters regarding screen resolution and device.15:51
BuddyButterflygood idea.15:52
brainwashalso file a bug report on launchpad against xubuntu-meta and plymouth15:52
BuddyButterflymaybe the difference is also in modules loaded for screendisplay.15:53
BuddyButterflythe splash is shown nicely, though. Also the entry field is visible. but nothing can be entered.15:53
brainwashthe underlying layer (kernel, drivers, boot configuration,..) should be the same15:54
brainwashit's possible that the xubuntu boot screen (the visual thingy) is somewhat broken or not compatible15:55
brainwashbut still, it should not prevent keyboard input15:56
brainwashso yeah, please test 15.04 and file a bug report :)15:56

tyrogHi is this PPA considered stable? https://launchpad.net/~xubuntu-dev/+archive/ubuntu/xubuntu-staging17:36
tyrogI mean, does it have the risk of bringing major breakage?17:36
elfyit does say "Please DO NOT consider this PPA a main, stable source for the packages."17:37
tyrogelfy: That is the general advice of most PPAs though17:38
Luyinis any PPA ever considered stable?17:39
Luyinif it were it might as well be in the regular repos17:39
tyrogLuyin: For those who want newer versions of packages, why not consider using them?17:39
Unit193Luyin: Some pretty much are, others are daily builds and testing grounds, like this one.17:39
elfytyrog: yea I know that, but this one in particular might have things today - gone tomorrow, working today, not tomorrow17:39
Luyintyrog: I don't say I would not use PPAs, it's just that use of PPAs is not supported here17:40
elfytyrog: "The packages are uploaded for the convenience of people testing these new package versions and features."17:40
tyrogthanks guys I will stay away from it then.17:45
Marzathawhy ff crashes on a new xubu install?17:56
LuyinMarzatha: what do your logs say?18:08
Marzathadunno18:08
Luyinperhaps it would help to know :P18:11
Marzathawhere is the log?18:20
LuyinMarzatha: /var/log. it might also help to start firefox via a terminal and see what output you get18:22
MarzathaLuyin: thank you!18:23
Luyinnp18:23
Unit193Also if you're on a recent version, in ~/.cache/upstart/startxfce4.log18:24
