[05:48] Good morning [05:48] Hey there [05:49] When I try to boot into xubuntu with two new displays I get no output to the screens, it's dual full-hd. [05:49] the loading screen and decryption of /home I can see [05:49] but I think it is the greeter that fails this high resolution [05:49] is it lightdm in xubuntu 14.04? [05:57] How do I install GTK 3.12 on Xubuntu 14.04? [06:00] Christoffer: Right, lightdm with lightdm-gtk-greeter. [06:03] Is there a way to update GTK 3.10 to GTK 3.12 in Xubuntu [06:03] 14.04 [07:25] <`dev> hello, i'm using xubuntu for an year now, very comfortable with this distribution.. until today, i changed hdd to SSD, installed the same 14.04 LTS , and i get this: http://s21.postimg.org/5xegoirid/prob.png [07:26] <`dev> when i minimize and maximize window (chromium) the top nav disappear [07:26] <`dev> until im sailing with the mouse on the top of the window and the buttons and labels coming back one by one -.- === \b is now known as benonsoftware [08:49] hi please help. i've somehow turnt on the 'lens' feature [08:49] how do i turn it off?

[14:54] i have been trying to run some xinput commands to start on my session but cant get it to work [15:04] I'm running Xubuntu 14.04 [15:05] And my OS is running really slow. It's freezing my PC, and making things run really slow [15:05] Everything is loading really slow [15:07] Is there a way to run a diagnostic test using my Xubuntu 14.04 live CD? [15:13] Sumitabha: open a terminal and run top - see what's going on there to start with [15:14] Run top? [15:14] Elfy, could you give me a command to run top? [15:15] open the terminal, type top and then press enter :) [15:15] ok [15:15] what am I looking for? [15:16] 140 tasks [15:16] 138 sleeping [15:17] down - below the top 4 or 5 lines [15:17] I am having a problem with my archive manager. After each time of downloading software i.e AVG, musicloader, the message pops up after opening the file "error. archive manager can not load" How do I fix the archive manager? [15:18] PID 4955 [15:18] I'm running a live CD, so things should be normal, right? [15:18] oh [15:18] maybe a bad source location ?? [15:19] the computer is not freezing and loading slow, like when I was running from the hard drive [15:19] the problems started with Chromium [15:20] Sumitabha: you need to be looking in the install rather than the livecd - but just for now, ram? cpu? graphics card? [15:20] 1.4 GB of RAM [15:20] I think the capacity is 2 GB, though [15:20] I'm pretty sure the problem is software related [15:20] Sumitabha: actually what version of Xubuntu is it? [15:21] 14.04 [15:21] ok [15:21] Because when I had closed Chromium the short constant wines stopped and everything speeded up [15:21] But the problems returned when I ran updates and was installing them [15:22] mmm [15:22] And when I shut off the PC, it took like over 5 min to shut off [15:22] It took over 5 min to boot up [15:22] actually more like 10 min [15:22] possibly issues with the hard drive [15:23] never had any hardware issues before [15:23] well you don't till you do :P [15:23] I tested the hard drive a couple months ago and it looked really good [15:23] the hard drive is working fine now [15:23] Sumitabha: ok - boot into it again - then we can have a look in the logs to see if there's anything there [15:24] But I had problems with Google Chrome, and had to uninstall it. google chrome had crashed [15:24] so did Chromium [15:25] It will take a long time to boot into my regular OS and I don't have an IRC account [15:26] I'm using xChat now [15:26] I think I'll have to do this on my own [15:26] yea - well just access us via the webchat link in http://xubuntu.org/help/ [15:27] ok, I'll try [15:27] doesn't matter how long it takes to boot - people will be about in here still :) [15:29] Oh, you want to see the Ubuntu crash logs? [15:29] yes [15:29] sort of anyway - you could pastebin them from livecd [15:29] I had already pastebined them [15:40] Sumitabha: where? [15:41] I need to paste them again [15:42] if it was fairly recent the urls will be good still [15:56] I have xubuntu 14.04 and after I have downloaded software and open the file the same message appears "error. there was a problem loading with the archive manager" How do I fix this? [15:56] I have attempted to download from several different sources with the same result [15:57] xubuntu27w, what is it you are trying to download? is that not available in the repositories? [16:03] I found the crash logs from the first crash [16:03] the Chrome crash [16:03] But I can't find the crash logs from the second crash [16:03] the most recent crash with Chromium [16:05] http://imgur.com/a/9ZA41 [16:05] those logs are from the first crash [16:20] elfy? [16:20] I posted the crash logs from my second crash [16:20] http://imgur.com/a/EKJdB [16:21] Oh yeah, I should say Elfy [16:21] elfy I mean [16:23] I'm running a fully updated Xubuntu‭ ‬14.04‭ ‬OS on my HP dx5150‭ ‬SFF desktop PC [16:25] Everything was working pretty well for the last‭ ‬6‭ ‬months,‭ ‬and I was running Firefox and Google Chrome browsers without any problems.‭ ‬Until Google Chrome recently crashed [16:27] I got help uninstalling Google Chrome and then installed Chromium browser recently.‭ ‬Afterwards,‭ ‬Chromium appeared to be working fine [16:32] On my thinkpad, well, i had some chrome issues too (crashes and window heat drawing bugs) but since xserver-lts-utopic everything runs fine [16:33] But later,‭ ‬I went to the BBC.com news website and it was working until I tried to play a video link.‭ ‬None of the video links were working.‭ ‬They all said‭ “‬Download Flash Player now‭” ‬in the video boxes. [16:33] So,‭ ‬I realized I probably didn't have any plugins installed.‭ ‬So I went browsing for Silverlight,‭ ‬and tried to install it,‭ ‬but I couldn't seem to install it.‭ ‬Then I read that Silverlight is not supported by Chromium. [16:33] So,‭ ‬then I installed Adobe Flash.‭ ‬And right after I installed it,‭ ‬my computer really slowed down and almost froze. [16:33] Sumitabha: sorry - was afk [16:34] that's ok [16:34] So,‭ ‬I checked all my Chromium plugins and realized that Silverlight was installed,‭ ‬and Flash was also installed,‭ ‬and they were both active at the same time.‭ ‬Did that cause the crash‭? [16:34] I think something more serious is troubling my OS [16:35] Sumitabha: to see what might be causing slow boot. we'll need to some logs from /var/log/ - dmesg and syslog would be a good start [16:35] I can do that from the live CD? [16:36] You want me to mount the hard drive, or is that asking for trouble when using a live CD? [16:37] should be ok [16:37] mount it somewhere then you can pastebin them [16:38] sumitabha: do you have such error messages like this in /var/log/kern* ? : Homer-Mobil kernel: [24347.052181] Watchdog[2961]: segfault at 0 ip 00007f18fbb58756 sp 00007f18eb106770 error 6 in chrome[7f18f7e69000+510c000] [16:38] Sumitabha: I'm likely to go quiet - right in the middle of trusty .2 release stuff for one [16:39] for how long? [16:39] anyone should be able to help you decipher what's hanging [16:39] ok, thanks [16:41] what is the command to open that directory? [16:42] cat /var/log/kern.log |grep -i chrom [16:43] Note I'm running a live CD [16:44] I ran that command, and it just gave me back the command prompt [16:44] ohhh, well you need to mount filesystem anyway [16:44] I mounted the hard drive [16:45] How do I mount the file system? [16:47] My hard drive is located at media/xubuntu [16:48] sorry, no, that's my external drive [16:49] we need the kernel devices first [16:49] like /dev/sda or so [16:50] may try this to list them: dmesg |egrep -i '(sda|sdb|sdc)' [16:50] Permission ddenied [16:50] Sudo....command not found [16:50] dmesg |egrep -i '(sda|sdb|sdc)' [16:51] no need for sudo in this case [16:51] oh, it worked [16:52] if you know your root/var partition we can do a mount [16:53] there is no evidence of the error hallmarks you showed above [16:54] I know my root home, I think [16:55] Sumitabha: cat /path/to/instal/var/log/dmesg |pastebinit [16:55] then the same for syslog [16:55] then give people the url's - then give people time to look [16:56] paste what my console shows? [16:56] path? [16:56] is path the actual word I should write? [16:57] no [16:57] ok, I see [16:57] path will be wherever you mounted it [16:58] its mounted at media/xubuntu [16:58] but my root directory used my name when I was running it off the hard drive [16:58] then cat /media/xubuntu/var/log/dmesg | pastebinit [16:58] ok [16:59] No such file or directory [16:59] You are trying to send an empty doc, exiting [17:02] try this command and copy the output in this chat: [17:02] mount |grep -i media [17:04] /dev/sdb1 on /media/xubuntu/VANTEC500 type fuseblk (rw,nosuid,nodev,allow_other,default_permissions,blksize=4096) [17:04] /dev/sda1 on /media/xubuntu/1f7a558d-8937-4f2f-9305-5f136e7713ac type ext4 (rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=udisks2) [17:04] xubuntu@xubuntu:~$ [17:04] Vantec is the external drive [17:04] sda1 is the big 500 GB hard drive with my OS on it [17:05] sdb1 is Vantec500 [17:05] both drives are 500 GB [17:06] so i guess elfy want the os data [17:06] Give me a command for the OS data you want, if you please [17:07] that would be: cat /media/xubuntu/1f7a558d-8937-4f2f-9305-5f136e7713ac/var/log/dmesg | pastebinit [17:09] http://paste.ubuntu.com/10310749/ [17:10] yeah, so it's elfy time :-) [17:12] wow, that's a lot of info [17:12] I need more experince to evaluate this kind of data [17:13] elfy must be an expert [17:13] Maybe i could, but elfy is better for sure :-) [17:15] Is your name Japanese? [17:15] I'm pretty new here, i have no glue [17:15] oops, you mean myself [17:15] yes [17:16] that's cool. I love Japan animes [17:16] yeah, that the background behind it :) [17:17] the name of the director? [17:17] no, i think this name is created by myself. This name comes in my mind while i'm wachting hikaru no go [17:18] I don't have plugins installed here, so can't search that, I think [17:20] I just installed HTML5 [17:22] oh, damn [17:23] I should not be doing that, because I mounted my hard drive [17:24] the installation went to the wrong place? [17:24] After I installed HTML5 the plugin did not show up in my Firefox Browser [17:26] oh crap, my external drive is overheating [17:26] I had to turn it off [17:27] it's 28 C in here [17:27] and the hard drive felt like about 75 C [17:27] i'm sorry, but i must leave now. i'm still not at home ;-) I think elfy or someone else will help you anyway :-) [17:27] thanks Akusari [17:28] have a good day [17:42] elfy ? [17:43] Sumitabha: hi - as I said, I'm tied up with lots of things currently - constant pinging me is not helping [17:43] sorry [17:44] your slow boot issue could also be looked at in #ubuntu - many many more people looking, perhaps try there - you have the pastebin output [17:44] ok [17:45] thanks for your help [17:46] but - quickly it looks like usb slowing boot at line 623,631,639 etc [17:49] My USB stick is not even hooked up to my PC [17:50] Which error log is that from? From the Chrome or the Chromium crash? [17:51] it's the dmesg output - you can see in there where the time halts are [17:51] anyway as I said - try #ubuntu - more people - good luck [17:51] oh, this could be related to my external drive overheating? [17:51] ok [18:36] rehi === IdleOne is now known as io [19:43] ely: How was the support case going two hours ago. the chrome case [19:44] elfy: How was the support case going two hours ago. the chrome case [19:45] * ochosi imagines a shiny metal case... [19:46] lol [20:18] hello [20:18] does anyone here virtualize xubuntu using virtualbox? [20:18] I'm wondering if it's normal to have a slight input lag, and choppy movement when moving windows, etc, I already installed guest additions [20:19] argoneus: i would expect that with virtualization in general [20:42] well, i'm using vmware for my virtual tasks :-) [20:45] Windows7 and XP runs smoothy and no lags so far === bazhang_ is now known as bazhang [23:40] Hello, I am try to install xubuntu but when I install it it is very pixelated and the colors look rediculous.
