zaza9After an dist-upgrade, I have not access to my desktop and Xfce taskbar even if I can see my wallpaper.01:52
zaza9I think it's because of an lightdm update. I'm not sure.01:53
bazhangversion upgrade?01:53
zaza9Gnome is working fine01:54
bazhangfrom what version to what01:54
zaza9bazhang: I'm using Xubuntu 14.10 and I don't know I just enter dist-upgrade and It did the upgrade.01:54
zaza9If you want info like dmesg or something just ask01:55
bazhang!dist-upgrade01:55
ubottuA dist-upgrade will install new dependencies for packages already installed and may remove packages if they are no longer needed. This will not bring you to a new release of Ubuntu, see !upgrade if that is your intention.01:55
bazhangtry a reset of the panels then01:56
zaza9and the desktop too ? How can I do this by purging them ?01:57
bazhang!reset-panels01:57
bazhangaugh01:57
zaza9I'll try and see if it works01:58
bazhang!panels02:04
ubottuDid your panels disappear? Press alt+f2 and run: xfce4-panel | See also: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XubuntuPanels | Want to theme your panels? See http://xubuntu.wordpress.com/2007/10/12/howto-set-a-background-image-for-your-panel/02:04

Unit193bazhang: Now he's back.02:15
zaza9I purged the panel and the desktop I purged also the session folder It didn't work then I tried to reinstall xfce4 and lightdm It didn't work too. I can use only gnome but not xfce4 or xubuntu sessions.02:16
zaza9I think it's a permission problem or something02:17
Unit193zaza9: Did you stop lightdm, remove ~/.config/xfce4 and ~/.cache/sessions ?02:17
zaza9because I remember I did a rm /tmp/ and now in gnome session I must type sudo firefox because it gives me this error : "I can't write to '/tmp/orbit-", ORB init failed" I remember I removed this file like a fool02:19
zaza9Unit193: yes I did02:19
zaza9I'm pretty sure it's a permission problem02:21
zaza9indmesg I have xfce4-panel having segfault problems02:22
zaza9Here: "drwxr-xr-x   6 root root  4096 mars  20 03:17 tmp" can anyone verify this please02:25
Unit193zaza9: No, /tmp should be 777.02:26
zaza9Unit193: ok and I see orbit-root in tmp I think it must be orbit-zaza902:27
Unit193zaza9: Since removing tmp, have you rebooted?02:29
zaza9I see this in /tmp/ : " drwx------ 2 root root 4096 janv.  1  1970 orbit-root drwx------ 2 root root 4096 mars  20 03:14 plugtmp"02:29
zaza9Unit193: yes many times02:29
zaza9Unit193: chmod 777 tmp/ resolved the problems thanks02:39
Unit193'Welcome.02:39
zaza9quit02:39

blackgatonegrothe numeric keyboard works for just numbers but not to input special characters03:22
blackgatonegrois a LTS03:22
blackgatonegroand it used to work, maybe is a problem from debian?03:22
bynariehonestly, i dont know03:23

crank_I'm new to Xubuntu. Which programme do you use for file management?08:26
Unit193Thunar, says "File manager" in the menu.08:26
crank_Unit193, oki, but it disturbes me a little, that i can't open a folder before pasting into it.08:28
Unit193Eh?08:28
UllarahI... I can't take it any more. I must go back to i3wm. Non-tiled is just too much! :P08:29
Unit193Ullarah: Psst, you know you can just replace xfwm4 with i3?08:31
UllarahUnit193, that's exactly what I'm doing :P08:31
crank_i have to select the folder and then choose paste08:31
sammonoi have 259,4 GB of 310,4 GB (16% used) and i just try to start Programupdater and its telling me To upgrade needed in all 81.2 M free space on disk "/ boot". You must make new minimum 53.0 M disk space available in "/ boot". Empty trash and remove temporary packages of old installations by running "sudo apt-get clean."11:45
sammonobut nothing of that is working11:45
krytariksammono: Remove old kernels too.11:53
sammonohow man please tell me ?11:54
kris__im sammono tell me please krytarik11:57

kris__okey ill try that12:06

GeekDudeBizzarrely, I've completely destroyed samba. I've just run "sudo apt-get purge samba gadmin-samba" and "sudo apt-get autoremove --purge". When I rebooted, I got a systm error about samba, and it's marked unreportable because I don't have samba installed15:20
cfhowlettGeekDude, you removed the program but there's still a trigger to samba in your system somewhere15:21
GeekDudeI'm halfway convinced I should just reformat everything. I couldn't convince windows to give up more than 30gb of space to dual boot linux. A complete reformat would let me parition it properly the first time around15:22
cfhowlettGeekDude, have your better half talk to your less reliable half.  reformatting/reintstalling would bring back samba, wouldn't it?15:23
GeekDudeNo, but it'd give me a clean slate15:23
* cfhowlett waits for GeekDude to convince himself ...15:24
xubuntu04wNeed some help to config my xubuntu machine to boot into desktop, I know that there is a box that you can check in the installation guide, however i forgot. Is there any way to change this?15:53
