[00:00] <holstein> xubuntu96w: sure but, now you have another issue, instead of an answer..
[00:00] <holstein> xubuntu96w: so, just ignore that, and dont assume the mic is time traveling ;)
[00:00] <holstein> i say, just try *anything* else that you can understand.. like cheese for recording a video with audio..
[00:01] <holstein> anything that uses the mic, that you can easily playback and see if its "crackling".. and you can turn the level down in pavucontrol and test
[03:16] <olok> hello somebody here?
[03:17] <knome> no, we're all hiding
[03:17] <AgAu> or dead
[03:17] <olok> oh dammit ;( :D
[03:17] <olok> I have little bit problem when my netbook eee 901 is closed he falt to hibernation
[03:18] <olok> but when i open it its still in sleep mode i must press any key (its ok) but when I sign in I have still black screen i thought it will be problem in power options or something (sorry for my english im not from english speak country)
[03:19] <olok> its looks only black screen but pc is live only close and open sometimes helps or hard switch off
[05:20] <Nixus> olok: disable light-locker
[13:01] <Guest15192> hello. I have an issue with sound. No sound coming from the speakers.
[13:31] <xubuntu_> Hello. Sound is not delivered through speakers. No sound.
[17:46] <cereal> Not sure where the best place to discuss this is, so my bad if it isn't 100% relevant here, but I've got two Xubuntu systems and attempting to use a displayport kvm to switch between them. As far as a relevant point, I am using the proprietary nvidia drivers. When I switch away and then back, I never get my video back again...so any suggestions would be helpful.
[17:58] <holstein> cereal: what addresses the issue? removing the KVM? or another driver? does the KVM work otherwise? what do you mean by, "never get it back"? you mean, the screensaver or sleep kicks in? if so, have you tried just disabling that? since, the screen switching will address that..
[17:59] <cereal> so, yeah..
[17:59] <cereal> when i switch between the two pc's
[17:59] <cereal> when i switch back, my monitors do not receive video back
[17:59] <holstein> sure.. im just seeing it as, the display *could* be sleeping and not waking up, and not be related to the KVM in any way
[17:59] <cereal> i did a test with the ungodly windows and it worked
[17:59] <holstein> and, the windows test is a good test to see that the hardware is working properly
[17:59] <cereal> yes
[18:00] <holstein> step one for me would be, see if the display comes back from sleep or standby, or whatever you want to call it.. without the KVM
[18:00] <holstein> then, i would just disable that functionality in that scenario, and test with the KVM in place
[18:00] <cereal> i have a feeling that the nvidia driver doesn't really bother polling for displays? not certain since I don't know well enough how that works
[18:00] <holstein> also, you may not need the proprietary driver, so, you can try this, on that hardware, with the open driver, from the live iso
[18:01] <cereal> well i've been using this desktop for a long time with xubuntu so coming back from display sleep or whatever its called works all the time
[18:01] <cereal> w/o the kvm
[18:01] <cereal> since this particularly is being used as a gaming pc i'd prefer to use the properietary driver (for now) but...valid poitn to try it with the live iso and see if that changes things
[18:01] <holstein> sure. just be sure you are comparing the same version of ubuntu.. same base.. 14.04, or 14.10.. or whatever you use
[18:02] <cereal> yeah, currently on 14.10
[18:02] <cereal> lol i lied, 14.04
[18:04] <xubuntu59w> Hello, I just installed Xubuntu 14.10 and I have a few problems with it. The first one is that my touchpad does not work anymore and the other problem is that I cannot connect to internet. If you can help me, thank you
[18:05] <holstein> so far, i have not had an issue with the proprietary nvidia driver on my specific nvidia hardware, and any of my KVM's i have tested with..
[18:06] <holstein> xubuntu59w: when you say "anymore", when did the touchpad work?
[18:06] <holstein> xubuntu59w: im assuming, this is a laptop, so, do you have access to wired internet you can use to help solve the wifi issue?
[18:06] <xubuntu59w> I was on windows 8 and my touchpad worked correctly and when i installed Xubuntu, it stoped working...
[18:07] <holstein> xubuntu59w: sure, but the hardware vendor promised you windows 8 would work.. they likely didnt hire a team to work on linux support, and promise you that, so, it'll be up to do you do that job
[18:07] <cereal> holstein, hrmm, are your kvms that you use displayport?
[18:08] <cereal> i'm wondering if its a DP specific issue since that is newer
[18:08] <holstein> xubuntu59w: first thing i would do, simply plug in wired networking, and apply updates.. reboot and test again
[18:08] <xubuntu59w> ok i will try this thank you !
[18:08] <holstein> cereal: correct.. KV*M*'s
[18:08] <holstein> or, K*V*M :)
[18:09] <cereal> lol
[18:09] <holstein> !wifi | xubuntu59w
[18:09] <holstein> ^ thats where i would start with the wifi issue
[18:10] <holstein> its likely a broadcom chip that requires a proprietary driver.. or something simple like a switch on the unit
[18:13] <priuon> hello there. I have an rpi hostapd server which i can connect to from android devices. Using my xubuntu machine with wpa_supplicant and dhclient will connect and the server is pingable but there is no internet access. I have resolv.conf nameserver and search both to the server ip. route and ifconfig is configurered from dhclient and seems allright
[18:13] <holstein> priuon: i would look at my dns servers.. and specify them manually, and try
[18:14] <holstein> specify 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4 or the openDNS ones.. or whatever you use
[18:15] <priuon> with resolv.conf?
[18:17] <priuon> I don't think the dns servers are the problem.
[18:18] <holstein> priuon: if you can ping the gateway, and not "google.com", seems plausible.. you can always ping other IP's and see
[18:19] <holstein> ping 74.125.224.212 for example vs ping google.com
[18:19] <holstein> you can isolate the name servers.. and specify them if needed
[18:20] <priuon> holstein: well the android device gets connected without a problem. So the server seems to be allright. Using nm-applet results in the same issue. If I put search in resolv.conf to the server ip I can ping the android device.
[18:21] <holstein> priuon: sure.. "seems" is the issue there.. *test* if you can ping your gateway.. then, try to ping 74.125.224.212 if you can ping both of those, then, try ping google.com.. then, you'll *know* the nameservers are likely the issue, and can specify them manually
[18:24] <priuon> holstein: configure the dns server via resolv.conf/nameserver then?
[18:26] <cereal> holstein, hrmm, did a quick test with a live disk and switching seemed to work, though it wouldn't detect my second display nor the proper resolution, but switching did work
[18:26] <cereal> i wouldn't be surprised if there just isn't support quite yet for the 980 for some reason
[18:27] <holstein> priuon: just test, by pinging as i suggested above.. you can see if the DNS server settings are the issue by removing them from the equation
[18:27] <holstein> priuon: test pinging your gateway, as you say you have, and that worked.. then, test pinging 74.125.224.212 the *same* way.. if that works, then, you *can* connect to google.com.. then, try pinging google.com ... *if* that doesnt work, then its logical to work with the name servers netx
[18:28] <holstein> next*
[18:28] <holstein> cereal: that could be the case, though, thats so surprising.. seems like such an external hardware thing, rather than something a driver can "break"..
[18:29] <priuon> holstein: pinging the gateway works. Pinging some domain on the Web does not work.
[18:29] <holstein> cereal: not sure what i would do next, to try and isolate.. seems like to me, from what you say, it *is* with that proprietary driver.. maybe i would look for a newer or older version via ppa
[18:29] <cereal> holstein, yeah i really am at a loss really
[18:29] <cereal> hrm, good idea
[18:29] <holstein> priuon: sure, friend. so, *dont* try "some domain".. try the IP address i suggested, which *is* google.com 74.125.224.212
[18:30] <holstein> priuon: if you *can* ping 74.125.224.212 and not google.come, since 74.125.224.212 *is* google.com, then, it stands to reason, the nameservers on your end are the issue
[18:30] <cereal> well, oddly enough my laptop does the same exact thing and its running 331 and my desktop is running 346
[18:30] <cereal> both doing displayport
[18:39] <xubuntu67w> HI
[18:45] <priuon> holstein: I tried using 8.8.8.8 as nameserver which doesn't solve the issue.
[18:47] <holstein> priuon: did you try to ping 74.125.224.212 ?
[18:47] <holstein> priuon: can you ping 74.125.224.212 ? or no?
[18:48] <priuon> holstein: i can not.
[18:48] <holstein> priuon: if you cant, then, its *not* a dns issue, so you dont need to mess with that..
[18:49] <priuon> holstein: I can not ping 74.125.224.212 neither from the server nor from my xubuntu machine. But I can ping other adresses from the server which I can not ping from the xubuntu machine
[18:50] <Azelphur> priuon: check your subnet mask.
[18:52] <Azelphur> holstein: that IP doesn't respond to ping
[18:53] <priuon> Azelphur: changed the subnet from 255.255.255.0 to 255.255.0.0 now reset the default gateway and it still doesn't work.
[18:53] <holstein> Azelphur: sure.. maybe suggest one that does
[18:53] <holstein> the idea being, remove the dns resolving from the equation.. and test
[18:54] <Azelphur> holstein: any IP that responds to ping? 216.58.218.46 (google)
[18:55] <holstein> priuon: so, please try pinging 216.58.218.46
[18:57] <holstein> priuon: so, can you ping 216.58.218.46 (google) ?
[18:58] <Azelphur> holstein: hilariously now that address has stopped responding
[18:59] <holstein> Azelphur: might depend on where you are..
[18:59] <Azelphur> yea
[18:59] <Azelphur> ping 63.251.20.21, that's my servers address, it isn't going anywhere
[18:59] <Azelphur> :)
[18:59] <holstein> priuon: regardless, choose pinging something by IP and not by url.. this will allow you to isolate your nameservers..
[19:30] <Morrog> Good evening everyone
[19:31] <Morrog> Does someone know how to run xubuntu session (as opposed to xfce-session) when login in with startx from command lie?
[19:31] <Morrog> *line
[19:35] <klopsi-u3> you want the login splash screen?
[19:36] <Morrog> i've been having some frustrations with lightdm, so i was looking at alternatives. currently trying with just startx
[19:36] <Morrog> so in .xinitrc i have exec startxfce4
[19:36] <priuon> holstein, Azelphur: Okay I added my eth0 now beeing more capable at searching the web. pinging internet ips doesn't work.
[19:37] <Morrog> but this starts xfce-session

[20:06] <leptone> what are the standard things i need to do for configuration after a fresh install of ubuntu 14.04 LTS
[20:06] <leptone> can anyone like me to an article
[20:06] <leptone> ?
[20:15] <klopsi-u3> leptone, networking setup?
[20:22] <leptone> no just a laptop i set up for a friend
[20:24] <klopsi-u3> i dont think there are any standard things needed for configuration after install
[20:24] <klopsi-u3> except perhaps setting up the network
[20:25] <klopsi-u3> and depending on use case, perhaps hardware X drivers
[20:35] <leptone> ok thx
[20:59] <sidi> hey, does the xubuntu live image have the ndiswrapper package?
